We're hoping to do it this month.
Anyone else's LO not baptized yet
Posted 11/04/2012
Posted 11/04/2012
Mine isn't. He has to be older in order to be baptized. At my church, the child has to make that decision for themselves and take a class. I can, however, have him dedicated...and I will. Soon hopefully.
Posted 11/04/2012
No baptism here. Family freaking. I may just skip it altogether.
Posted 11/04/2012
I'm not a religious person, I believe in God, but have a hard time trusting a bible that was written by man...so, religiously, I don't really fit in anywhere. When LO is old enough to make up his own mind about it, I'll support whatever he decides to do. If he wants to be baptized, that's fine.

Posted 11/04/2012
Neither child is baptized. I don't believe in baptizing babies, when they are older and can understand why we baptize and choose it for themselves then they will be baptized.
Posted 11/04/2012
My son isn't baptized yet either, I don't think I'm going too because like a lot of people think, I want my son to choose for himself what his beliefs are. I'm not a religious person, haven't been in a church in over 10 years other than the occasional wedding.

No baptizing here either. My family isn't too happy about it but agreeing to do it just to please them is silly when I don't have the same religious beliefs. Like pp, I will support whatever lo decides she believes in when she's older.
Posted 11/04/2012
Not yet but soon!
Posted 11/04/2012
Mine will not be unless she chooses for herself.
Posted 11/04/2012
No. Don't plan on it. I've already gotten hell from the family about it.

My babies won't be baptized until they are old enough to know what they are doing and decide for themselves. My dh's family are catholic and are bothered by it.

I got interested in brewing an Alt bier, but had never tried one. The only commerical one Bevmo has is Alaskan Brewing Co. Amber. Anyone know how close this is to a real Alt? It tastes pretty good to me. I will have to go check my other beer source and see if they have any other Alt bier. Thanks - Dirk

Life's not easy for Sami Sabiri, especially since his dad stuck him at a private boys' school where he's the only Muslim kid. But it's about to get a whole lot worse.
When Sami catches his father in a lie, he gets suspicious. Unfortunately, he's not the only one. The FBI raids his home, and suddenly his family is at the centre of an international terror plot—and Sami is forced to question everything he's ever known. Borderline is an action-packed page-turner about loyalty and identity that tackles the ethical debate at the heart of today's toughest security issues, starring a funny and gutsy fifteen-year-old determined to save his father, his family and his life.

Wood color pendant lamp over dining table

I love this lamp - organic and modern. Does anyone know where I can find it?
Loop Design
The pendant over the table is from a local (Austin) import store called Tesoros Trading Company (http://www.tesoros.com/homepage.html), it's from Costa Rica. I'm not sure they carry it any longer but you can always call them and inquire.

The Clean Cut: BYU-Idaho students sing 'Called to Serve' while bailing water out of apartments
BYU-Idaho students sing hymn
When a severe thunderstorm caused flooding in Rexburg, Idaho, on Tuesday, many Brigham Young Universit–Idaho students stopped studying for finals to serve.
A video posted to YouTube July 15 shows students lining up with buckets, bailing water out of the Birch Plaza apartment complex while singing "Called to Serve."
"As I was driving through Rexburg surveying the water damage from today's flash flood, I heard what sounded like a choir singing the hymn 'Called to Serve' and here is what I saw next!" wrote Jason Averill in the YouTube video description. "This is what makes BYU-Idaho a special place ... the people!!!"
The video has more than 4,000 views so far.

33 year old woman | Irving, TX, USA | Seeking men 27-38 within 50 miles
Active within 1 week
I am a follower of Jesus Christ and am a cheerful, lighthearted, caring person who loves people and laughter!
I'm looking for someone who loves God, has a big heart for loving on and serving people, has a good heart, and personally important to me, loves to laugh! I am a cheerful and positive person and would love a companion to share these same passions with me. I am saved by faith through grace by Jesus Christ, and my faith is very important to me, as well as in the person I can hopefully find. I enjoy eating healthy and doing yoga and really love breaking a sweat and staying physically active. I have traveled to various countries on missions trips, including the Philippines, Ethiopia, Taiwan, Papua New Guinea, and Haiti. Those were some of the most incredible learning experiences I have ever been through. I love people, being around people, and attempt to the best of my abilities to be involved with my church Watermark or in social events outside, either simply having a good time or serving people. But really, aside from all of these, I'm really looking for my best friend... someone who can laugh with me, joke around with me, not take himself too seriously, be supportive as well as someone I can support, appreciate my strengths yet push and encourage me to grow, accept me for who I am, the good and the flaws. And I certainly would be overjoyed to do the same for him. I believe humility, good communication, kindness, and laughter are important in a good relationship. We're all flawed and sinful people, which is why everyday, we need the grace of God and the forgiveness, encouragement, and acceptance of one another to grow and live a God-honoring life. Oh, and I love to smile and laugh. :-) Send me a message if this sounds good to you so far, and we'll go from there!
Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Exploring new areas , Religion/Spiritual , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering
Other types of exercise, Yoga
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
Coffee shops, White Rock Lake, downtown, Uptown, any place that's unique, artsy, or simply worth exploring!

I love hanging out and simply enjoying the friendships and relationships in my life. We can be hanging out, sharing a meal, watching a movie, exploring the city, or just relaxing. I also enjoying serving with my church.

Hearing through the noise
Senseless chatter is my new pet peeve.
Even as I set foot from my bedroom in the morning, I am subjected to the verbal pull of my children. Always a chipper early riser, my 11-year-old son seats himself at the kitchen island and proceeds to talk at (not to) me.
As he monologues, I feel my brain sluggishly turning about, still covered up and dreaming. I respond zombie-like as I try to get breakfast on the table, but it doesn't deter him from talking a blue streak about anything that comes to mind: a rabbit warren he's designed, a Mario strategy he's perfected, a koala's receding habitat, his top-five favorite fish (not mammals) that live in the sea.
He has always been an extroverted blabber. Upon a recent consultation with his baby book, I saw that I started writing down his spoken words at 15 months – just a handful (hard to believe) – but by the time he'd reached 20 months, I simply wrote "too many words to write." It was likely an understatement.
My brother-in-law recently told me that his new nickname for my son is "limitless," after the movie about the writer who takes a pill that allows him to access a large percentage of his brain, bringing about life-changing creative and intellectual expansions. This nickname was chosen for him after my son recited from memory a
Saturday Night Live skit that involved dialogue between three different people.
He has a gift for the gab, as they say, and I am usually the lucky recipient of his gift.
My eight-year-old daughter can't get a word in edgewise, but in the mornings, she is just as tired as I am and usually doesn't try to compete. After all, she was raised to the sound of the constant drone of her older brother's voice, so much so that it delayed her own speech for a while. But now, a competitive second-grader, she can talk at me with the best of them in the afternoon carpool, which, incidentally, is a not-so-subtly waged war of words, the prize being my attention and the other sibling's pouting silence.
Even my baby seems intrigued by the magic of speech. At the tender age of 14 months, she says a few distinct words – her favorite is "dog," which she uses as a sort of greeting when we lift her from the crib in the mornings. Then she claps for herself, a habit she picked up from her verbally adoring family. If you can talk, we applaud you! Is it any wonder that I use ear plugs at night? Originally installed in the hopes of muffling my husband's snoring, they now provide my only true silence.
I recently heard of a novel called The Flame Alphabet about an eerie future world in which the speech of children sickens and kills their own parents. I laughed out loud at the premise, thinking the author must have children like mine. And the more I thought about it, I saw the book as a commentary on the values and the dangers of speech, and perhaps palaver of all kinds.
It brings to mind the infamous saying, "Children should be seen and not heard." I used to scoff haughtily at such a pronouncement.
How cruel, I'd say, to silence the poor children, as if they were meant to be small actors in a grainy, black-and-white film. Children have things to say too. Sadly, I didn't realize just how much until now.
I've considered forcing my little yaks to take periodic vows of silence, pint-sized nuns and a monk living peacefully in my home. I could enforce morning and afternoon yoga and meditation, perhaps, get them little mats and porcelain figurines and a nature-sounds CD.
Or, I could teach them about the art of conversation, the give-andtake of healthy dialogue. It would help, I think, to encourage less mindless prattle and more listening, more observation, more thought before blurting whatever is on their minds. I could encourage my children to be aware of their own speech patterns, to catch themselves when they feel they might be talking at someone, to take note of glazed expressions and monosyllabic responses.
And I could help them understand that the art of listening is an underrated skill in this age of constant noise and motion, endless commentary and instant feedback. We could all stand to get more in touch with our inner introvert once in a while. Imagine: if the world's yammering were to suddenly stop one day, we might be able to hear each other better.

A taste of Japan
Ichiban offers rich Asian flavors, but portions lack
In a spot that could be easily overlooked is a surprising, and delicious, Japanese restaurant. In a tiny nook in the shops at the corner of Ridgefield Parkway and Pump Road sits a welcoming, warm and comfortable Asian restaurant called Ichiban, which means "the best."
The restaurant, tucked between a couple others in the Gleneagles Shopping Center, was so quiet and dark that it was difficult to tell if it was open at 6:30 p.m. on a Monday. When I opened the door, I smiled when I looked inside. > Read more.
One beauty of a charmer
Disney's no-frills, live-action 'Cinderella' delights
Cinderella is the latest from Disney's new moviemaking battle plan: producing live-action adaptations of all their older classics. Which is a plan that's had questionable results in the past.
Alice in Wonderland bloated with more Tim Burton goth-pop than the inside of a Hot Topic. Maleficent was a step in the right direction, but the movie couldn't decide if Maleficent should be a hero or a villain (even if she should obviously be a villain) and muddled itself into mediocrity.
Cinderella is much better. Primarily, because it's just Cinderella. No radical rebooting. No Tim Burton dreck. It's the 1950 Disney masterpiece, transposed into live action and left almost entirely untouched. > Read more.

Feel free to add suggestions and ideas, just a fun thread talking about possibilites.
So far we have:
Tier 1 - Healing
Tier 2 - CC
Tier 3 - Defensive
Tier 4 - Suicide
Tier 5 - Demons
Tier 6 - Situational Perks
so I think next could be:
Tier 7 - Resource Generation
Fel Empowerment - 30 Sec. CD
Grants one Soul Shard, Burning Ember, 250 Demonic Fury immediately, and after 10 seconds another Soul Shard, Burning Ember, 250 Demonic Fury.
The Dark Arts - Passive
Affliction - Nightfall will proc twice as often.
Demonology - Spells and Abilities of the Master and Demon generate twice as much Fury.
Destro - Ember Generating Spells generate twice as many Embers.
Volatile Magiks - Passive
Abilities that consume resources have a chance to not consume them when used.
I'm going to take a look at these from a Demonology perspective.
Fel Empowerment
An issue that could arise from this would be a sense of almost 'permanent Metamorphosis' which would heavily favor Mastery beyond its current value.
It's safe to assume that the priority would be as simple as keeping up Doom and spamming Touch of Chaos, without forgetting to jump into Caster form to Hand of Gul'dan, use two fillers, and Hand of Gul'dan again. It will also be assumed that we have 4717 Haste Rating, the 5% Haste raid buff, and zero Crits for worse-case situations when it comes to Doom's spawn rate of Wild Imps.
Fel Empowerment - 500 Demonic Fury
Corruption - 17.5 ticks - 70 Demonic Fury
Felguard's Legion Strike - 5 hits - 60 Demonic Fury
Hand of Gul'dan - 13 ticks - 26 Demonic Fury
Shadow Bolt - 3 casts - 75 Demonic Fury
Wild Imps (Unglyphed) - 17 Firebolts - 85 Demonic Fury
That totals 816 Demonic Fury over 30 seconds.
Metamorphosis - 18 seconds - 108 Demonic Fury
Touch of Chaos - 17 hits - 680 Demonic Fury
Doom - 0.5 casts - 30 Demonic Fury
We would spend 818 Demonic Fury over 30 seconds.
I've made loose changes to what would be 'optimal' by having one extra Shadow Bolt, and having some left over time. However, this allows for a bit of latency compensation or time to do things that would be on the global cooldown (such as presumably Fel Empowerment itself).
Just by looking at it, we could see a better case where we'd get an extra Imp from Doom, or being able to use Molten Core Soul Fire over Shadow Bolt. The talent you've proposed would be amazing, but possibly a bit overpowered.
Edited by Ember on 2/16/2013 8:46 AM PST
100 Orc Warlock
I don't think the next tier should have an effect on our damage. In fact, I don' think the next tier for any class should have an effect on their damage, as it could easily result in more cooldown stacking an absurd amounts of burst than there is in PvP now.

help! water coming in thru hole in basement wall
Hi All,
Sorry I don't have a picture to share. I need some help and advice -- hard to describe w/o a picture. I have a 99 year old house with some vintage plumbing. As a part of our remodel, I had all the plumbing replaced and new water line bored in from the public main because the old pipes were corroded and the water pressure was very low.
The line was bored in from the street, and came into my unfinished basement, straight through the wall. There is about a two inch area around the new water supply pipe where the concrete was damaged. Living in Portland, it rains A LOT (!!) and during the last storm, the street flooded and water started pouring in through the hole where the new pipe was bored in. It was literally coming in by the bucketful.
I'm assuming I have to concrete around the pipe to seal off the hole, but I have no idea what to use. Also, do you think I need to excavate around the foundation/basement from the outside and patch it from there, or can I just patch it from the inside?
I called my plumber who did the boring and he has no idea what to do. He says he is happy to pay for all the materials, but has no idea what to use, and how extensive the repairs need to be. I'm super annoyed that they left a huge gaping hole in my basement and now don't know how to fix it, but there's nothing I can do now but try to keep the damage to a minimum. On the bright side, my water pressure is now great! In fact, I have too much water coming into the house, like from the huge gaping hole in the basement...
You can do an immediate repair with hydraulic cement. A longer-term repair might involve the use of foam.
Some kind of plumber!

Red Yeast Rice/Lipitor/Cholesterol
I've been on Lipitor for about two years and have recently read that scientists are looking into a connection between statin drugs and ALS/Lou Gerig's disease. Apparently the World Health Organization found an unexpected association between statins and ALS which causes the degeneration of muscles and nerves. My sister-in-law died of this terrible disease for which there is no cure. A few of my friends have recommended red yeast rice, 600 mg, twice a day which is available at health food stores as an alternative. I'll pass it by my doctor. Your thoughts would be helpful. Thanks.
I also have HP and statin drugs were prescribed but, I exhibit side effects pretty quickly with a lot of drugs and did so with Lipitor. I stopped them and went the diet route to help lower my cholesterol. Several months later I was discussing this with a friend and she told me about the red yeast rice and how much it helped her. She gave me a website and I ordered some. I guess I took the recommended dose for a week or so before side effects kicked in and I had to stop. I then went online to research it a little more and discovered that RYR has a naturally occuring statin which has recently caused the FDA to place it in the controlled substance group. This friend had told me that her original supplier no longer carried it but she found it on another website. I don't know if the new website was selling the same product (with statins) or one where the statins had been removed. I just know that I could not take it because of the side effects. She had no problems though and said that the new source product worked just as well as the old one and continued to lower her cholesterol.

Ridge Ventm, but no Soffets?
I've got an 1880's colonial. Someone suggested that I put in a ridge vent on the higher roof (left of the picture). However, I don't see any soffets or other vents that would allow air to flow up and out.
I don't really understand how all this works, but aren't soffets necessary for ridge vents?
There is a semi-finished attic under the roof. The "living" area has a plaster ceiling. There are knee walls with raw space behind them. Kind of like this:
But I don't see any spaces for the air to flow up around the "living space".
any thoughts?

Ridge vents operate on the warm air rises principle.that means they need area for air to be drawn into the attic space to function.
The space between rafter tails is usually utilized when the rafters overhang the sides of the structure by utilizing soffit vents. If soffits are part of the roof design but no venting is provided, vents can be cut in the soffits and covered with griloles.
Without soffit vents, the moisture will stay in the attic and rot it from the inside out. Attics MUST be vented properly. Cathedral ceilings can have a bit less insulation, but they've got to have air flow over that insulation and out the roof. If it's not done properly, the home will suffer.
The other option, if you are in a warm humid climate like the South, is an unvented attic. But, it has to be done properly, with the vapor barrier on the right side of construction, or again, the home will have moisture issues that will cause mold and decay.
have you looked at soffit area to see if
ventilation can be added?
is there access at exterior into attic
where holes can be cut & screens/grills
a ridge vent without soffit vents won't work
well with out soffit vents.
is there no ventilation in attic at all?
no gable end vents?
any signs of excessive moisture in attic?
cold climate or hot climate?
beautiful home btw.
best of luck.
ok..call me a pemissist.
the house was built in the 1880's
not ridgevent..not sofit vent..
WHY do you need a ridgevent? oh..because someone thinks you do..
well..um..for the last 100+ year it didn't have one..why?? does it suddenly 'NEED' one?
do you still have gable vents?..keep them..forget the ridge vent..
its my opinion they don't work as well as claimed..they don't keep the attic cool.
sorry..I research into the matter..and to date..I've found no good evidence that ridge vents/soffit vents work.got a link?
we built our house in NC 18 yrs ago..it has ridge vents and soffit vents..100%
but the electric fan for venting still runs..its set for 115F..??
is runs after adding refletex insulation to the bottom of the rafters..
got links..to show otherwise..I'd like to see them.
forget the ridge vents..a waste of money on a 100+ year old house.
want to save money..insulate the upper floor ceilings..R38 or more.
walls? R15 or more
floor?? R19 or more
seal the air leaks..
You need a roofer that understands ventilation and how to make your system work as compared to just "putting in a ridge vent".
You do need soffits to make the ridge work but that doesn't mean that its the right application for your home.
The purpose of attic venting differs with the climate. Because we don't now where the house is located we can't provide a specific answer to the question.
In general, roof insulation is more effective than any kind of venting for cooling an attic.
In general, a ridge vent is more effective than gable vents or mechanical fans for reducing moisture in an attic.
Of primary concern is the possibility that strong venting will create a negative pressure and draw conditioned air into the unconditioned attic space.

Islamic State forces have advanced further into Syria and overtaken cities in northern Iraq. Those who don't submit to their militant cause are tortured, imprisoned or killed. The border between northwestern Iraq and northeastern Syria has effectively disappeared. As a result, Iraq's culturally diverse and complex society lies in tatters at the feet of the invaders.

Published in Middle East
Keywords: Iraq, Kurds, IS, Yazidis, Christians
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Earlier, tens of thousands of Yazidis were left stranded on Mount Sinjar, surrounded by IS fighters and facing death from malnutrition, dehydration and exposure. While the United States launched airstrikes to repel IS forces and dropped pallets of food and water, it was a group of Syrian Kurdish fighters known as the People's Protection Units, or YPG, who fought through IS-controlled territory in Syria to establish a safe corridor to rescue many of the Yazidis from the mountain.
The civil war that has fractured since neighboring Syria since 2011 has provided the YPG an opportunity to dramatically expand its territory. The borders of a new independent Syrian Kurdish "Rojava" - or "West" in Kurdish - are now being challenged by another opportunistic organization also trying to carve out a country from the wreckage of Syria's civil war: IS. The YPG and IS have been at war with one another since last year.
SAVE Iraqi Christians from Genocide --
Yazidis who were assisted by the YPG are now shifting their allegiance to the group. Since coming off the mountain, hundreds of Yazidi have received training at YPG military training camps; some have already returned to Mount Sinjar to fight as new recruits for the YPG.
"I belong to the YPG because they were the only ones who would protect us," one recruit said. "From this moment, I am not Iraqi."
An increasing number of Assyrian Christians in northeastern Syria are likewise joining the YPG. "We have to choose one side," another recruit says, and "the Kurds are who I fear the least."
It's a sentiment felt by members of most groups living across the Syrian-Iraqi borderlands with the important exception of one: Iraqi Sunni Muslim Arabs.
Before the Battle of Sinjar, IS had only managed to conquer parts of Iraq with a significant Sunni Arab population by capitalizing on the grievances of Iraq's Sunnis. After the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003, Sunnis were sidelined and purged from positions of power by Nouri al-Maliki, Iraq's Shia prime minister for eight years until he agreed to relinquish power this month. His government has also been accused of systematically targeting, imprisoning and torturing tens of thousands of Sunni men and women.
"The Islamic State has gotten rid of sectarianism," one survivor says. "Now there are no Shia. There are no Kurds . no Shabak, no Yazidi, no Christian. And we are all Sunni."

What the hell college are you going to? I'm sure most of the people at my college are borderline Atheist. I am a supporter of Darwin. My religious beliefs are that the Ten Commandments are God's true word and the bible is merely book made by (and in many cases changed by) man and borderline blasphemy in that people craft religions centered around it (worshipping false idols anyone?)
But for the record, those who attempt to cast their beliefs upon others or those who condem others for having different beliefs are the true scumbags. I am all for letting the masses do as they please so long as it does not infringe upon the rights of others.
And by masses I mean those who are adults, once you have finished cognitive development you are free to excersize your will.

Pumila Pampas Grass
I ordered the Dwarf pampas grass from T&T Seeds this year and am treating it as an outdoor potted plant, to be stored inside for the winter. It is in full sun and growing well so far, and some buds have started to appear.
My question is, what are the buds supposed to look like? What I have sure doesn't look like they could turn into those silver-white plumes you see advertised, so I'm wondering if I have the wrong plant.
Has anyone in the 2-3 Zones tried this plant and have you been successful in getting it to flower?
The dwarf pampas grass when in sheath does not look like the larger varieties. Most tend to be more sparse and more muddy in colour
Thank you orchidguy for the info.
I did some further research on the internet and one site states that pampas grass flowers are dioecious (individual flowers are either male or female, but only one sex is to be found on any one plant) and that only the female plants produce those large plume-like flowers.
It looks like I might have the male plant which would explain the sheaths you describe. I wish I'd known that before buying it.

Some great recommended settings in another thread in this forum for this model TV.
I left HBO on for 5 days to break my TV in. No logos or trailers and plenty of different types of content.
I've now had this TV for 3 weeks and couldn't be happier. The picture is awesome! Also, having Smart Apps and a universal remote are features I wouldn't want to live without. I've set the extra remote that comes with the TV- smaller than an iPhone- to control the TV and my cable box. It controls 90% of what I use the cable box for, so no need to buy a universal remote. Since it's a Smart TV, no need for Roku or other type of device.
Skype, Netflix, 3D movies, Facebook, web surfing, and Yes watching TV all in one place!
I realize some of the videophiles here don't feel the "blacks aren't inky enough", but technology is many times about small compromises. The videophiles may need to give up inky blacks for a stunning overall television.
The blacks are plenty inky black for me. My Pioneer Elite 1120 upstairs looks dated in comparison now. PE is still a nice picture, but this Samsung is much better.
So, for the non-videophiles out there, BUY THIS TV if you're in the market. Many videophiles are buying this TV. There's nothing better out there. They may stop making plasmas in the next few years and you won't be able to buy a new one any where. Cnet, Consumer Reports and the videophiles all agree, plasma still delivers the best picture for the money; PERIOD!
Buzzing? You heard that this is an issue. Not for me, nor anyone I know. I have to place my ear against the TV to hear it. All plasmas buzz- BUT that's not how we watch TV is it? From just a couple feet away I hear nothing. AND, even if you're more sensitive to the buzzing than I am you don't listen/watch the TV from a couple feet away- you're at least 6-12 feet away, right? NO BUZZING.
Burn in? My 10 year old Pioneer Elite never even had that issue. This plasma has the latest technology and burn in is something that may be avoided EASILY. I ran HBO for the first 5 days- no logos nor news trailers and a variety of programming. "You don't need no stinking slides" if you're not a videophile (with apologies to Treasure of The Sierra Madre movie fans).
Go to your local BB Magnolia room and check out the TV for yourself. You won't be disappointed!
In case you're wondering, I have absolutely no affiliation with Samsung or any thing related to the sale of televisions.
Agreed, ten-thousand fold.
Have no major problems with my F8500.
It is perfect. No buzzing. No dead pixels. No construction issues.
I got lucky.
And inky blacks? You betcha!
I'm quite certain based on posts I've read that there's a small percentage of defective plasmas being sold. If buzzing may be heard from 12 feet away by the average listener then I agree that that plasma is defective and should be returned. But, I think you'll agree that you're probably more sensitive to the buzzing then the general populace is. I think the buzz issue is more of a personal situation than the preponderance of plasmas having a buzzing issue. Neophytes to TV technology shouldn't be steered away from plasma because "they heard" plasmas buzz and therefore it's not a good choice. Plasma continues to be the best choice- best picture for least amount of money.
I tend to agree with that as well.
One theory was that older people can't hear it.
Not certain that is entirely true as there have been older adults who have reported the buzzing.

Indeterminate Tomatoes - and Cuc question
Hi, new to SC we used raised beds, didn't expect tons of tomatoes so quickly (from seeds) but now I find I planted many determinate plants..never knew there was a difference.. and they're dying..I'm told multiple growing seasons here, so which plants are best to put in for a long continuous growing season (my cherry and grape tomatoes still doing well) can I plant more Roma? Will they still grow- is it the length of the plants life I need to watch and not the conditions? Also while I'm at it cucumber plants now have much lower yield- do they stop producing? should I plant more or will they come back? Thanks!
Yes, both determinate tomatoes and cukes stop producing. Best approach with both when you have a long gardening season, is just to plant new plants of both. But during the high heat of summer neither will do much. Even a place with a "continuous growing season" has hot inactive periods. :)
Indeterminate varieties of tomatoes will also shut down during the high heat of summer but if you keep them cared for and watered they will kick back into production once the weather begins to cool down a bit.
Determinate tomatoes are programmed to die after a certain number of leaves and flower clusters. Some will produce the entire crop in one or two batches; those are good for canners or mechanized picking.
I've only grown Romas once and planted them out quite late (probably mid-June?); they kept producing till frost, though there were disease issues and later fruit weren't high quality. As you're in SC, you're probably a zone or two warmer than I am, and with a longer growing season, so for you they might not last all year.
A major factor in some regions is the heat. Too hot, and pollen becomes non-viable, so fruit don't set. The relevant numbers are: daytime highs above 90-95 and night-time highs either above 75 or below 55. Some varieties do better in heat than others (cherries, for instance).
Pollination can also fail when humidity is too high.
In my area the big-box stores still have some tomato plants for sale, both determinate and indeterminate varieties.
Here's where you can find out your USDA hardiness zone; enter your zip code on the upper left:
Be aware that this is a new map this year, and your area may be a zone warmer than before (though mine isn't).
If you go down to the bottom of the GW page and click on "Member Pages" in the green ribbon, you can add your zone and/or location info to your member info so it will show up automatically.
The zones are most valuable for knowing which plants will survive winter lows, but can also be helpful to people responding to your question. For instance, in SC you might be in the mountains and 7a like me ... or in Charleston (9a) -- big difference in temperatures.
Will they still grow- is it the length of the plants life I need to watch and not the conditions?
Sorry I missed this when I first read your post but missing has addressed it well - conditions is the focus. Given perfect conditions - which sadly no one has - indeterminates would serve us all well. But since we don't have ideal conditions then either type or best yet, a combination of both types, works.

Dioon edule 'Palma Sola'
Any posters here grow these? I just ordered three of them to plant around the base of a longleaf pine tree, I'm hoping they will grow well here. Sago palms are so common around here and I thought this would be something different (most people may not even notice the difference, but I will know :) ).
I was originally thinking of trying Zamia pumila (Coontie) but decided on these (I may still get the Zamia's and put them somewhere else).
it will def. live in full sun but starts to get a little bleached or fades 'cuz of too much sun if you want it bright green have in a partial shade area that has a little more sun than shade. if they will be out all winter you may want to lightly mulch around the base and maybe root growth, not fertilizer. so the roots can get established and strong. this is a beautiful cycad...
Quite right tugbrethil, it is D. spinulosum. It is native to Oaxaca, Mexico. Lives in rainforest usually under forest canopy although in a few hundred years they may reach a height of 50 ft.(look out!!!). According to Whitelock they will tolerate frost. Jack
Yeah, the ones I received are a darker green without the prickles, similar to Sago. They were small enough to where I could pot them up in plastic cups temporarily. Should I leave these in my unheated garage over the winter, or should I bring them inside? I don't want to mess up their natural dormant cycle (if cycads have one).
I am growing several Dioon edule, var palma solas. By the way, the image on this page is not a palma sola, it is a Dioon spinulosum. The palma sola does fine in direct sunlight, even here in Phoenix, Arizona (The spinulosum needs shade here). Anyway, I think the palma solas are great. Here is a link to a post that I did on mine at my blog "Brad's Tropical Paradise".

Retailer Owned Food Distributors & Associates
- 1 Background
- 2 Categories of relationships
- 3 History Timeline
- 4 ROFDA's identity
- 5 Conferences, share groups, and forums
- 6 Members Location Map
- 7 References
- 8 External links
Retailer Owned Food Distributors and Associates (known as ROFDA), in the spirit of co-opetition, is an organization of 13 wholesale food distributors that are owned by their U.S. retail independent retail grocer members. There are three categories of relationships in ROFDA. In addition to the Members, there are a select number of Associates and Suppliers who provide ROFDA Members with goods and services. ROFDA operates as a cooperative.
ROFDA's focus is to create benefits for the independent retail grocer member-owners through sharing information; leveraging collective resources and developing tools to assist them in competing against big-box stores.
According to research commissioned by the National Grocers Association and its sponsors, the independent grocery channel makes up 1 percent of the U.S. economy. ROFDA's own internal research, conducted in 2012, indicates that collectively their members' store numbers are estimated at 7,630 stores with approximately 205,500 employees, and an estimated 42.5 billion in retail sales.
Categories of relationships[edit]
Retailer Owned Food Distributors and Associates recognizes three categories of relationships:
Regular members[edit]
This category is made up exclusively of Retailer Owned Food Distributors, defined as those primarily engaged in the wholesale distribution of food and related services in the United States, and having at least 66-2/3 percent of its issued and outstanding voting stock owned by active retail outlets.
This category comprises firms that are regularly engaged in the supply of services or products to Regular Members.
Honorary members[edit]
Former members or associates who are not presently active in the food industry but permitted to retain an association with the organization in recognition of past service.
History Timeline[edit]
Founded in 1962 by cooperative food distributors in the southeastern United States, the original organization's name was Southeastern Food Cooperative Association (SFCA). In the 1980s, the organization expanded geographically out of the southeast, and in 1988 the name of the organization changed to Retailer Owned Food Distributors and Associates. In 1996, the organization incorporated as a cooperative. Before that it had been a nonprofit association. In 2012, ROFDA commemorated their 50th anniversary.
ROFDA's identity[edit]
In 2013, ROFDA began several initiatives. The first, to improve their industry identity, new Purpose Statement and Mission Statement were developed and refined to clarify the meaning and purpose of the organization.
Purpose statement[edit]
"A cooperative formed to facilitate and enhance the success of Independent Retail Grocers".
Mission statement[edit]
"Cooperatively united to utilize and leverage all available resources, industry best practices, and business relationships to provide added value to our Independent Retail Grocers".
Logo and tagline[edit]
As part of the identity initiative, the organization's logo was redesigned. This was accomplished through a collaborative effort between the members. The logo, designed by one of the member's marketing team, is a simple representation of the three important ROFDA relationships: Members, Associates and Suppliers. "Strength in Unity" was a tagline contributed by a different member's team.
Communication among members and affiliates is a critical part of the collaborative nature of the ROFDA cooperative.
Semiannual conferences[edit]
Although there are numerous opportunities for online and offline communication, ROFDA's semi-annual conferences provide the opportunity for ROFDA members, associates and other affiliated parties to engage in face-to-face communications. Their members believe there is enhanced value in building understanding and relationships through their conferences. ROFDA hosts one conference in the spring and one in the fall.
ROFDA's website provides basic information and also provides a secure portal to allow Members, Associates and Suppliers access to directories, information and private online discussion boards.

Economy adds 155K jobs in December (Video)

- Email | Twitter | LinkedIn | Google+
Concern over the fiscal cliff didn't seem to affect hiring in December, with 155,000 jobs added nationwide during the month for an unemployment rate at 7.8 percent.
Jobs were added during the month in health care, food and drinking establishments, manufacturing and construction. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported "small gains" in hiring at component industries as responsible for the 25,000 more jobs in the manufacturing sector; construction was up 30,000.
The December unemployment rate of 7.8 percent was down slightly from November's revised 7.9 percent, the BLS said.
Employment reports for both Pennsylvania and the Pittsburgh region won't be available for several weeks. Pennsylvania's unemployment rate in November was 7.8 percent, down three-tenths of one percent from October. The 5.75 million people employed in Pennsylvania was the largest number since November 2008.
Just Thursday, state labor officials announced that the unemployment rate was 7.2 percent in the Pittsburgh region.

In London, Camden and Islington councils have almost completed full Living Wage status after pledging to do so, despite massive cuts from central government. For both councils over 95% of contracts are paid at over the Living Wage but some large care contracts remain a hurdle, but both have signed UNISON's Ethical Care Charter to bring this in line very shortly (in our case by 2017), along with other reforms such as paying travel costs and ending short visits.
Camden has the legacy Caterlink contract for school dinner staff, negotiated on low wages by the Tories and Lib Dems when they ran Camden council and actively resisted any move towards the London Living Wage. Camden has also gone a step further on low pay last year and become the first council to by introduce a minimum earnings guarantee - meaning by 2018 every one of the council's 4,300 staff will be paid at least £20,000 a year.
Both councils have campaigned for local employers, specifically including Arsenal Football Club, to embrace the Living Wage too and join us in setting out a plan to raise wages. Much like the recent criticism of the Church of England, here in Camden the Tories and the Camden New Journal paper have doubled up locally to say organisations which aren't precisely 100% Living Wage compliant shouldn't ask private sector firms to change their ways - but these are the views of people who are more interested in shouting 'hypocrite' or pursuing political advantage than supporting progress in any meaningful way.
The Living Wage Foundation approach doesn't hide that it is gradualist or that dealing with this issue is more complex than it looks. When you pledge to become a Living Wage Employer it commits organisation to a funded plan to address London Living Wage in a given period of time. This enables organisations to examine their procurement processes and deal with long-term contracts and ensure that when they are re-tendered they meet the new standard. This is the concept of phased implementation which was set out when we raised the flag at the Town Hall in 2012 and explained our approach.
So we say to the haters: join the campaign and support more Living Wage employers in London - including Premiership clubs, who can certainly afford it.
Here's what the Living Wage Foundation says:
Next year Camden will make good the remaining contract for school dinner staff - the people who matter most here - what we won't do is further subsidise the profits of big firms by paying out more taxpayer money on top the subsidy we already give low wage employers through the benefits system, as we have always made clear."Camden was one of the first councils to make the commitment to roll out the Living Wage. And we believe there is an important role for local government in championing the Living Wage to other employers. The Living Wage Foundation recognises that full compliance can take some time as contracts come up for renewal. There may in fact be a risk of legal challenge if contract terms are materially changed before the point of re-tender."
