1/3/14 Gmail - I will be outspent Ben Ray <firstname.lastname@example.com> I will be outspent Greg Brannon <firstname.lastname@example.com> Tue, Dec 31, 2013 at 2:32 PM Reply-To: firstname.lastname@example.com To: Fellow Conservative <firstname.lastname@example.com> Dear Fellow Conservative, "Did he help us? Yes . . . I'm going to write him a check." That's what a high-powered lobbyist said about my opponent less than a week after a bill hiking profits for his industry became state law. This is what you and I are up against this election. An establishment-backed insider who is stuffing his campaign coffers with special-interest money. In fact, my opponent has already abandoned his job as House Speaker -- TWICE -- to wine and dine at fundraisers hosted for him by D.C. lobbyists. With the December 31 End of the Quarter fundraising deadline tonight at midnight, I must ask you for your most generous financial support. Fellow Conservative, there's no doubt I'm going to be outspent by my opponent in this race. After all, my opponent is the hand-picked candidate of Washington insiders who have one goal: To keep their taxpayer-funded, special interest gravy train running full speed ahead. https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui=2&ik=07c101b47f&view=pt&q=gregbrannon.com&qs=true&search=query&msg=1434a2c3ea7b1c4c 1/6 1/3/14 Gmail - I will be outspent But there's one weapon in my arsenal that my opponent and his lobbyist pals don't have. . . . . . and that's the support of grassroots conservatives like you who are FED UP with business-as-usual in Washington. Right now, my campaign is close to reaching our goal of 2,014 donations for our 2014 Grassroots Victory Fund. And I can't stress enough how important it is that we reach our goal. You see, tonight at midnight I have to publicly disclose to the FEC my fundraising totals for this quarter. This is the most important day of my campaign yet, as by the time the next quarter ends, early voting will already be started. With the early voting kicking into high gear after the New Year, we need to have the funds to implement our voter contact program by opening grassroots centers and contacting voters through mail, email, phone banks and door-to-door canvassing as soon as the calendar turns to 2014. My campaign team has developed a proven, state of the art, grassroots mobilization program that will give 100's of volunteers the tools to defeat my establishment backed opponent in May's primary and go on to defeat Senator Hagan and President Obama's political machine in November. This includes a conservative voter mobilization plan consisting of email, direct mail, phone banking, online and social media ads -- and if we have the resources -- hard hitting TV and radio ads all designed to spread my conservative message to voters across the state. This is a time-tested program that propelled Ted Cruz, Rand Paul and Mike Lee to victory over better-funded establishment moderates in their campaigns. So please make the most generous contribution you can afford right away. Whether it's $500, $250, $100, $75, or $50, any amount you can contribute will be a tremendous boost to my campaign. Whatever amount you can afford, your contribution will be greatly appreciated and put to immediate use -- and I https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui=2&ik=07c101b47f&view=pt&q=gregbrannon.com&qs=true&search=query&msg=1434a2c3ea7b1c4c 2/6 1/3/14 Gmail - I will be outspent promise to be a careful steward of your trust. Believe me, I understand only a few people are able to afford $2,600 ($5,200 per couple) -- the maximum legal amount under federal law. But if you are such a person, I believe this race is an investment worth making. But I also understand that $50 or $100 may be all many folks can give. In fact, I know for some even $10 or $20 is a sacrifice. All I'm asking is that you help me fight the Washington and Raleigh establishment by contributing whatever you can to my campaign. The Big Government establishment knows I'm not one of "their guys." And they want nothing more than to see the Tea Party candidate go down in flames this election. I'm sure you understand the stakes should they succeed. Our national debt is nearly $17 TRILLION. Unemployment is still sky-high. The ObamaCare train wreck is fast approaching. Our U.S. Constitution is held in utter disregard by EVERY branch of government in Washington, D.C. And every phone call, every text, every email, and who knows what else from every American citizen all now reside in the government's hands. The truth is, if you and I don't turn things around -- IMMEDIATELY -- our children and grandchildren may never know the freedoms intended for them by the Founding Fathers. That's one thought that keeps me up at night. And that's why I'm asking you to make a generous contribution of whatever you can afford to my campaign. The difference between me and my opponent in this race couldn't be any clearer. My opponent is an establishment insider who believes he is entitled to North Carolina's Senate seat, and he's marching https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui=2&ik=07c101b47f&view=pt&q=gregbrannon.com&qs=true&search=query&msg=1434a2c3ea7b1c4c 3/6 1/3/14 Gmail - I will be outspent to Washington to cut deals that benefit his cronies. Not too long ago, he appointed three individuals to the prestigious Board of Governors who stuffed his campaign coffers with over $70,000. But this should come as no surprise. My opponent has a history of carrying the water for the big money lobbyist who are fueling his campaign. His Chief of Staff -- who shared an apartment with my opponent -- and his Policy Analyst were forced to resign after it was revealed they were having "inappropriate" relationships with lobbyists. But my opponent still gave both of them "golden parachutes" -- a full months pay after they resigned from their position. My opponent has even used his leadership position in the State House to defeat Republican candidates in party primaries in favor of Democrats who switched parties or were part of his personal circle of political allies. This isn't the kind of "leadership" you deserve in Washington. This is exactly what got us in this mess in the first place. You deserve a Senator who will go to Washington and fight for YOU -- not for the lobbyist that writes them the highest check. If elected to the U.S. Senate, I will NEVER compromise my core values and principles, and I will lead the fight to end business-as-usual in Washington. So won't you please make a generous contribution to my campaign IMMEDIATELY. I'm not running for Senate for the "perks" of being in office or to join the "good ole boys" network. I'm running for Senate to go to Washington and, as Ted Cruz put it, "kick down the door, tear down the curtains, and auction off the silver." I want to fight for YOU. For my seven children. For YOUR children and grandchildren's future. https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui=2&ik=07c101b47f&view=pt&q=gregbrannon.com&qs=true&search=query&msg=1434a2c3ea7b1c4c 4/6 1/3/14 Gmail - I will be outspent And for the over 9,000 babies I've been fortunate enough to deliver as an OB/GYN. But as I told you, I can't do it without your immediate help and support. That's why I'm counting on you to make a generous contribution of $500, $250, $100, $50, $25 -- any amount you can afford -- immediately to my campaign. Even if all you can do is chip in $10 or $15, any amount will be greatly appreciated and put to immediate use. You and I can't afford any more deal making moderates who want to get along with Democrats instead of FIGHTING Barack Obama's socialist agenda. If you want real reform, someone who will stand up for freedom against the overreaching federal government, then I need your help like never before. So please help me reach my fundraising goal for this quarter by making the most generous contribution you can afford to my campaign. Together, you and I can rock the political establishment and turn Washington on its head. Thank you in advance for your support. Sincerely, Greg Brannon, MD Republican Candidate United States Senate P.S. The End of the Quarter Fundraising Deadline ends tonight at midnight. And my campaign is close to reaching our goal of 2,014 donations. This is the most important day of my campaign yet, as early voting will have already started by the time the next quarter ends. So please make the most generous contribution you can afford right away. https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui=2&ik=07c101b47f&view=pt&q=gregbrannon.com&qs=true&search=query&msg=1434a2c3ea7b1c4c 5/6 1/3/14 Gmail - I will be outspent PAID FOR AND AUTHORIZED BY BRANNON FOR U.S. SENATE This message was intended for: firstname.lastname@example.com You were added to the system July 27, 2013.

Recently, on Alaska News Nightly, Sen. Mark Begich said he supported the federal budget. He said he was glad to see "Good funding for our military" but was not happy about declining money for veterans benefits. Not a peep about education, healthcare or transportation. It's comforting to know that Sen. Begich and Alaska Democrats are in the spirit of giving to the poor military industrial complex as Alaska's number one priority during this Christmas season. You gotta believe it's what Jesus would do.
I am one of the 40,000 Alaskans who will not have health insurance coverage due to Gov. Sean Parnell's decision to not expand Medicaid. In response to his desire to "know more about this category (of people)," I am in reasonably good health, remain physically active, and have been covered by health insurance for decades.
This year I cared for my elderly father. I wouldn't change it for the world because of what it meant for my father and me, but it resulted in reduced income and a loss of health insurance.
I value and respect all that Juneau's teachers do to educate our children. They work extremely hard, which I believe most people certainly recognize. I fully support a fair contract for teachers that recognizes and concretely values their contributions. I'm willing to pay for it too, through taxes or any other means available to government.
In response to the Nov. 26 article on former prison inmates and the city, just let me say a few things.
The governor is not willing to go forward with the Medicaid expansion because it is not the program that he wants. We all know that the governor has done all that can be done to get the oil companies as much money as possible.
Gov. Sean Parnell's salary is up for consideration of a cost of living increase of 2.5 percent in each of the next two years. Really?!
How is it that the same governor who has vowed to veto any increase in the base student allocation for years is getting a cost of living salary increase himself?
Traditionally, psychiatric patients use an in-facility grievance procedure and appeal process as the first steps to protect themselves from physical or sexual abuse, denial of basic rights, exploitation and institutional good intentions that can traumatize the patient.
In Alaska, it is the locked psychiatric institutions' or units' staff that set the patient grievance appeal process and their due process rules. That kind of institutional power is not fair to psychiatric patients.
It appears that the "holidays" are just another impediment for public process in Alaska. Wednesday's front page article "State backtracks on resource permitting hearings," informed readers that the public hearings for HB 77 have been canceled because of the approaching holidays and legislative session.
I enjoyed reading the Juneau Empire's Nov. 17 editorial about ANWR, but from the perspective of an example of a poorly written editorial. I more enjoy reading well written editorials and articles from all points of view.
The division in our community as well as the high emotions expressed requires that the student/coach incident go to trial.
Our justice system is not perfect, but it allows society to act in a civil manner and for each party to present their side of the incident in an open and public setting. Only in this setting will the citizens of Juneau hear firsthand the circumstances of the incident, which will hopefully help to heal the wounds of our divided community.

Land exchange to add more acres to Berlin ATV park
The first step is a swap of conservation land in Bartlett and White Mountain National Forest land completely surrounded by the Berlin ATV park. The swap is between the Society for Protection of New Hampshire Forests and the U.S. Forest Service.
The society will then sell the Jericho tract to the state. The tract on the northern slope of Bartlett Mountain will become part of the White Mountain National Forest. The appraised value of the 96.6-acre parcel at Jericho was set at $48,300; the 76.5-acre Bartlett tract is valued at $39,000.
The Forest Society will pay the White Mountain Forest the difference in value of the two parcels - $9,300. And the state will pay the society the appraised value for the Jericho parcel.
"It absolutely makes sense for us to acquire it," Chris Gamache, head of the New Hampshire Trails Bureau, said Thursday.
Gamache said formal discussions started in 2009, and that the transfer is expected to be complete by late summer or early fall.
The acreage has a dirt road through it which could not be used as long as it was part of the White Mountain National Forest, he said. There is already a snowmobile corridor through the land.
"This land exchange is the result of consideration by an interdisciplinary team and collaboration with two of our local land management partners, the Forest Society and the state of New Hampshire Department of Resources and Economic Development (DRED)," Tom Wagner, White Mountain National Forest supervisor, wrote in his March 11 letter of decision for the Bartlett Mountain Land Exchange.
He added: "We're extremely happy to be able to finish this land acquisition."
"The outcome is well worth it," Jack Savage, Forest Society spokesman said, noting the society bought the land in 2009 with the goal of holding it for eventual purchase by the WMNF.

bcs tiller or rotary plow for breaking sod?
Hi All,
New to the forum, looks like lots of great info.
I looked around the forum for info on this, found some interesting stuff, but would like to pose the question directly: I am going to be getting a BCS tiller to work 2 acres of commercial garden. I know the BCS will do all the things I need, once the ground is broken...but right now the field is a pasture, with some tough looking sod (tho very few rocks). So the question is, can I bust the sod with just the tiller, making multiple passes, without
killing the machine, or should I shell out the $1200 odd dollars for the rotary plow to do the job?
Related question: neither my dealer now the web have much info on the BCS single bottom plow...does anyone have any experience with it? It costs a lot less than the rotary plow.
Thanx much for whatever wisdom can be passed on.
Start by spraying the entire 2 acres with Round up. Let it do its job of killing off 100 percent of the vegetation. Treat stubborn areas a second time with the Round up until everything is brown. If you can legally burn off all the dead stuff, get a fire permit and light it up. If you can't, then use a riding mower with the deck up all the way and make a pass over the field to chop it all down. Lower the deck a few inches and mow it again. Cut the field down to the lowest height you can without running the risk of damaging the mower by hitting rocks or other debris.
Then, take a wheelbarrow or put a garden cart behind the lawn tractor and go clean up all the junk from the surface of the field. Find a local farmer who still has a small tractor with a 2 or 3 furrow turning plow to come in and plow the entire field. If he also has a set of disc harrows, then get him to come again a week or so later and cross-disc the field until its fairly flat once more.
Now....saddle up that nice BCS you have and wade into the plowed and disced field and till it. Keep a wheelbarrow or cart handy so you can toss in the junk the tiller will bring to the surface. As long as you till in the fall and again in spring, plowing and discing won't be necessary.
There's little point in buying a nice BCS and then beating the crap out of it to bust virgin ground when a small ag tractor with a plow can do it 5 times faster and easier.
Thanx for the response, kompressor.
A bit more detail explains how we still have a dilemma: first, we're going to be farming organic, so no roundup allowed (tho I think it has it's place...). But the BIG problem is that we've been trying to get someone to do exactly as you suggest: get a farmer with a decent tractor and plow to do the job for us...but what we're finding is that thus far it's been impossible to find anyone to do it. We're in coastal Maine, where there are quite a few farms, but nothing like many other agricultural regions...and more importantly, everyone is just too busy...we had someone lined up a long time ago, but he has baled (literally...making too much money on hay) on us...am busy calling around, but if we don't get it plowed in the next two weeks, we'll be in trouble in terms of getting a cover crop in before winter. So, the BCS plan is a backup, but one we may have to use. Any thoughts? Thanx!
Ok.. I understand about the organic thing. So...instead you could just bring in the garden tractor and mow it all down while it's living until you have it chopped as close to ground as possible. If your are going to till it, then the last thing you want is long grass and weeds winding themselves around the tiller tines. They will interfere with the tilling process and you will not have any fun trying to remove them.
If it was me, I'd just go and rent the biggest, baddest tiller I could get and beat the crap out of it instead of my own. Too bad you don't know anyone with a garden tractor that has a turning plow on the rear. It would take longer that a full size ag tractor but you'd be surprised at how well a decent GT can plow an area like that up. Even if you don't disc it afterward, at least the ground has been broken and that will make the tilling go much easier and faster. Breaking virgin ground with any tiller is not a fun job. You can only till about 2 inches deep on each pass so you would have to make at least 3 or 4 passes to till to the full depth of the tiller's capacity.
Of course, the type of soil you have wiil influence all of this too. Good luck with your project.
Thanx for the thoughts...we may go out and rent.
I have seen videos of garden tractors plowing, and it's unbelievable what they appear to be able to do...thanx for confirming that it's possible. We'll consider that route, too. We'll need a mower at some point, in some form...either a dedicated unit, or an attachment on the BCS or ag tractor...
We haven't ruled out the ag tractor, it's just that with only 2 acres, we're on the cusp of needing a compact utility tractor, we're trying to keep our capital costs low, and we want to buck the trend of owing the farm to the bank.
I'm going to do a new post on lawn tractors plowing.
Hey Daybreak,
I have a BCS 830 diesel with a rollover plow, but I've never used it to plow sod. I have plowed with real farm tractors and multi-bottom plows. One problem you'll encounter when trying to plow is that you're only going to be cutting an 8 or 9 inch furrow. A garden tractor pulls a 10 inch plow. Your neighbor probably had a 3-14 or a 2-16. The rule of thumb with plowing is to plow half as deep as the plow is wide. 8 inch plow = 4 inches deep, 10 inch plow = 5 inches deep, 14 inch plow = 7 inches deep, etc. There is some wiggle room with this rule, but not much. Moldboard plowing is kind of an art. You need to know what you're doing to do it right. You need the proper angle of attack, weight and traction. Even if you know what you're doing, it can be difficult to get the sod to properly roll. I have seen some beautiful plow jobs with a moldboard plow, but the conditions need to be favorable. I've seen many more really bad jobs than good ones.
I think you'd be a lot happier with the rotary plow. It is much more forgiving vs. a moldboard plow. There are several videos on Youtube showing what a rotary plow can do. I don't have one yet, but have seen them work personally and plan on owning the 2 way rotary plow by next spring. It cuts a furrow 10 inches wide and 9-10 inches deep and whips the ground like mashed potatoes. Thatch and grass are buried into the soil, leaving very little residue on top. Since the plow is powered, it does a much better job than a moldboard plow in getting the soil ready to plant in one pass. It's also better than a rototiller for sod-busting because you only need one pass to go full depth. Multiple passes with a rototiller is hard on you and harder on the soil structure AND it leaves the residue on top. I've broken sod with my 30 inch tiller and have had a very hard time getting acceptable penetration even after three passes in some situations such as compacted soil, thick thatch, or tall grass. Since you're planning on planting a cover crop this year, you wouldn't need to do much more than plow once and plant - maybe run a harrow to smooth it a bit.
Make sure you buy a tractor up to the task of rotary plowing and properly outfit it with wheel spacers and weights. I would only consider an 853 in BCS or a 107d in Grillo. Used tractors can be had at much more affordable prices. The ones I recommend are - 735, 745, 605, 737, 945, 830 850, 946, 852, 948. Smaller, solid axle machines can rotary plow and do a good job, but they're harder to steer and have fewer speed options, limiting them for use with other attachments. If you do buy new, I would strongly recommend going through Earth Tools in Owenton Kentucky. Joel has forgotten more than I know about these machines and sells many more 853s than any other dealer.
Good luck!

Daybreak, I'm curious what you ended up doing. I have a BCS 853 with Berta rotary plow and used it to bust up sod for 3' wide garden rows in a stony hayfield. Mowed the grass closely first, as kompressor suggests. It worked fine for this, but it's a good physical workout. Then made a pass over the rows with the tiller implement. There's no way you could do a good job on tough sod with just the tiller to start. Even if you were working on very soft grass, the tiller only goes down about half as deep as the plow. And the plow is a huge labor-savor: I could barely sink a spade into the ground, but the plow churned through it efficiently, and pitched aside rocks up to canteloupe sized.
I did find that, even after plowing and tilling, there's still a fair amount of sod chunks left close to the surface that will re-sprout later. You'll need to remove these, knock the soil back into the bed, and compost them. (Or you could try re-tilling.) So you won't have a truly clean bed until the following year.
You may be able to find somebody nearby with a BCS, possibly through a dealer, and work out an arrangement where they'll do the initial plowing; you can then use a cheaper tiller for maintenance. Also, I recently saw a Goldoni two-wheel tractor, which are heavier-duty than BCS, outfitted with a Berta plow; might be worth considering.

Florida credit union wants to hire young, hip 'spokester'
Wanted: "Spokester" to connect to young adults via social media and teach them about personal finance.
Responsibilities: Offer financial tips on buying a car, getting a mortgage, applying for a credit card, budgeting finances and more.
Compensation: $25,000 plus benefits for one year, a car, computer, camera and other tools for blogging, posting, videoing and making personal visits, 24/7.
Tropical Financial Credit Union in Miramar, launched a search Tuesday for a new "spokester" position. It's the credit union's attempt to market to the under-banked Millennial generation.
"This demographic is such an interesting group. They trust their peers much more so than they trust other forms of advertisement or traditional forms of media," said Amy McGraw, vice president of marketing for Tropical Financial.
Like other credit unions nationwide, Tropical Financial is suffering from an aging client demographic, with an average age of — horrors — 48.
So to reach those aged 18 to 25, the credit union decided it needed someone who could relate.
"The best way we figure to help this younger group is to speak their own language and connect to them on their same level," McGraw said, "and use the same tools and communication they use on a daily basis."
The spokester job is the starting point of Tropical Financial's "Young & Free Florida," a web-based initiative that addresses the financial needs of young adults.
Want the job? Go to YoungFreeFlorida.com for details. "Applicants must bring their creativity, tech savvy and passion for helping others to a short, 60-second video demonstrating why they would be the ideal Young & Free Florida Spokester," the credit union said. "They will also need to submit an entertaining blog post on a financial topic, completing their entry by 3 p.m. on May 7."
The public will vote from May 8 to 17 to determine 10 finalists who will be invited for an in-person "meet up" event before the final decision is made by Tropical Financial.
The winning candidate must live in Miami-Dade, Broward or Palm Beach counties and be willing to work full time during the one-year term, the credit union said.
"This is our future," McGraw said. "This is the next generation, and we want to make sure they are educated."

In 2011, we commissioned Steve Brodner to create this illustration of John Wiley Price's mind and what was going on inside it. Zac and I collaborated on the individual thoughts, which we sent to Brodner. Here's the rough version I drew, before Brodner made it pretty. Looking back, and flipping through today's indictment, I think we pretty much nailed it. Except for EdgeFest and philately. Still combing the indictment, but I don't see either of those mentioned.

Allegedly! Goes the weasel.
A tuppence for a friend up there
A penny for assistance!
That's the way the money flows,

Cars and land were given,

Pop! Goes the weasel!
JWP should go to prison like everyone else that of committed a crime. He has costed tax payers enough. John enough is enough give up and take a plea. Don't cost us more money and step down your a crook and don't belong in office. All you do is yell and screem at people older then you, you are a bully, I wish you try that with me .

Does anyone have a 'Flutterby' Bush?
I bought this little "flutterbye bush" at Lowes
about 2 months ago, and it has really grown.
It is suppose to be an improvement on the butterfly
bush. It isnt suppose to be as gangly and doesn't get as
But I'll tell you one thing, it is very fragrant.
I have regular butterfly bushes, but this little bush
is so fragrant you can smell it from a distant.
I am pleased it is now a fragrant.
I went back for another one, but they were all gone.
Anyone have one? Is it very fragrant?
First off, how are you? It's good to see you again:-)
I saw them and it boy are you right! They are much more compact and full of flowers. They smell so good. I just thought it was that day that my senses were a bit more sensitive or that it was just a fluke.
Now, you have enabled me to go back and get one, that is if there are any left.
I hope you have been healthy these days.
Hi Mike,
Long time no see.
How have you been?
Are you still saving sweet olives? Boy, you have
a way with plants.
I'm surprised you remember me.
I have been fine, except the fact that we are
having a terrible drought here. i live down by Augusta Ga.
I think I will loose some plants due to this, I don't
have enough time to water all the plants I have.
I guess I have too much then.....
I saw you on a few posts on the container forum last
winter. I am still learning how to grow in a container
it is much harder I think than growing in ground.
But if you love plants that aren't hardy in your zone,
I guess you just have to use a pot.
I have always love bb. But this one is special.
I bought the blueberry cobbler in May, it has grown and flowered great! It smells so good I am going to look for a pink one next spring. i went back to Lowes and they were out of them altogether.
I hope your plants are doing well, how have you been?
Do you still have that sweet olive that grew so tall?
Still have your greenhouse?
I bought this new jasmine "snow in summer" in the winter time at a nursery and it is really growing this summer.
I don't think it is grown for the blooms though, jsut the foliage color. My Grand Duke is getting ready to flwer for the second time, the first time it actually rained, about 5 weeks ago, and the flwers all turned brown.
So I am waiting for the second bloom.
Gardenias are blooming beyond belief this year.
I don't understand it. Constant bloom. It's weird.
Don't get me wrong, I love it.
Post a pic of your sweet olives when you get a chance.
I love your pics.
here's my flutterby
See how long that flwer is?
OK now I'm addicted to a new kind of fragrant. LOL!
Butterfly! Lol. You to funny! lol. Don't get me started on another addiction. I am close to it.
I've been on since I broke my heel last summer. It took a lot out of me and my interest in most things. Even my plants suffered a bit. Getting to them to water and fertilize, even to move them was quite difficult! I had a bout with spider mites this winter because I couldn't treat them before they came in last fall. My mom broke her arm 2 weeks after I broke my heel, so it was tough.
She was caring for my plants since no one else is even interested to help. Believe me when I tell you, I lost most of my friends then. I saw their true colors.
Now I have all the time in the world to care for my plants and house :-)
I have wondered how you were since we did have fun at one time over here.
My Olive trees? well, now I have 3.lol Two smaller ones and a large 6 foot one!
They don't flower at all until the cooler weather starts to move in. maybe by September.
I am so sorry to hear about your drought! Nothing is better than that good ole nutrient rich rain in lightning storms. It's like giving a shot of hormones to my plants. We too are having a huge lack of rain. I have yet to see a thunderstorm.
I can tell by looking at your grass you could use some rain. You poor thing. I hope your plants are ok. Thank God that these butterfly bushes can handle drought.
It's good to see you growing in pots. I guess it can have it benefits even in your area, right? You can move your plants to anywhere you want, you can have full control of the mix, you can water without fear of drought, you can bring them in when it gets too cold, and you don't have to worry about nemetodes! I am so glad you are giving it a shot. I would love to see you grow a gardenia in a pot..lolol._0)
Yes, I still have my greenhouse, thank God! I store my fragrant Orchids in there, fragrant tropicals that love humidity, Hoya, have you even seen my Hoyas? They are so fragrant! I think just about everything I have in there, even some of my Epi's, except my CC, have some sort of fragrance.
I hear you about the Grand Duke! I have actually come to hate growing them so much, that I threw mine out! I got tired of worrying about it and having to provide hot sunny conditions for it to thrive. Yes, if it got anything other than that, it would die off, get bugs,or just not grow. What a pain. And then, when I would finally get blossoms after all that, just one drop of wetness would rot the flower.
Lucky you with your gardenias! Yahoo. I would kill to get mine to loom as good as yours:-)
Well, now that my but is sore from sitting here this long, and my heel still hurting, it's time to stretch. It has been nice spending time with you and please don't be a stranger. And no, you have not been forgotten. You have always been kind to me.

We enjoyed our stay in a premier room. Breakfast was decent, but wish they kept the curtains open to enjoy the view as it was located at the top floor. The room was neat and clean, plus AC was really cold. The wifi was good, which was a plus. Location was the biggest thing as it was close to the clinic, massage locations, restaurants, and shopping.

About 9 million people in the United States are covered by both Medicare and Medicaid, including low-income seniors and younger people with disabilities. These dual eligible beneficiaries have complex and often costly health care needs, and have been the focus of many recent initiatives and proposals to improve the coordination of their care aimed at both raising the quality of their care while reducing its costs. This page highlights some key resources examining the dual eligible population and provides you with the standard search result page for a site-wide search on the dual eligible tag.

An Australian Winter Update
Evening Garden Webbers.
It has been a whilst since I posted anything, have been very busy lately so the garden has been progressing in fits and starts. I'll open with a shot of the front of our little cottage. We are about 5 minutes from BroMagic in Palmwoods QLD.
The back gardens are pretty much just 600m2 of Brom territory. We have shade, full sun, dappled sun, a 20 meter long rockery & a shade house attached to the yard. So far the only broms we have are the ones that we inherited with the house, I have pupped, pulled, binned, fertilised & repositioned every plant in the yard and still haven't finished yet! A few recent bloomers include...
An oddity is this guy who for the last 12 months had been a flat green and nothing else, in a clump of about 10. Now they have all blushed to some extent. Some in sun, some shade, some in between! It has started to really firm up in the centre lately and the blush is moving out quickly to the edges. Fun to watch!
Here is my seedlings which are going well thanks to Nev's instruction on how his process is time lined. They have gone from this.
To This!
The Sphagnum is growing as well but the plants seem healthy and mould free so I will let it go and see what happens once it warms up again! I hope they don't take a turn in the current cold weather!
Lastly my little trooper who's colour change I have been tracking continues to change a lot. It's gotten a bit rangy (I did fertilise with a nitrogen some time ago when I was a bit of a newbie) so its getting high instead of "dishy" but still holding some colour! I'm hoping with more time and sun it will end up larger but similar to what it was originally.
1. When I Inherited it, Full Sun Grown.
2. When I Moved it in to Shade.
3. Part Shade, Fertilised, Currently Looks Like This...
The front of the house we are going to stick to a cottage theme of sorts but we are at a loss on where to start. I am trying to pick some larger Perennials to set a bit of structure first but i'm at a loss for what I should plant where. I am aiming to have a bit of interest all year round (so far only Gardenia's come to mind) whilst mixing in blocks of annual colour & herbs to give it a cottage feel. I was going to be really brave and try to stick to the theme of the house which is white & purple. Was thinking of using Yellow's and Purples as the main colours out the front where possible. Any advice, ideas are MORE then welcome!
Sorry about the HUGE update, I just felt I should let you all know I'm still going and still planting more broms, its taken about 3 months now to clean out the old growth around the yard and I have now got three more gardens to re-plant, one is a great rambling drystone retaining wall that I am really looking forward to covering so watch this space! I hope that your all enjoying your gardens as much as I am.
Hi Gordon,
That's a nice, neat looking cottage you have there and would go well with the type of garden you are planning. Is that the "little lady and the ankle biter" out the front surveying the garden?
Pleased to hear your brom's are still doing well and you're getting on with the massive project of re-structuring your brom garden. The drystone wall sounds very interesting, and I look forward to seeing the finished product.
Thank's for the pic's and please keep them coming
All the best, Nev.
Hey All.
Rick, I think your on the money with Neo. macwilliamsii. The photo's I have seen look exact with a similar blushing and form.
Nev, very happy with the little seedlings so far, I have a bit of a plan to build a similar setup to yours on the eastern side of the house where the sun is strong in the morning. Filter with some heavy shade cloth and try promote some more growth in this cooler period. You have a good eye for detail! That is in fact the boss & the little man. Almost walking now mind you! I'll update this as soon as I can with some pics of the continuing stonewall. Building and planting over the coming weeks. Very heavy lifting but fun work.
Brod, thanks for the message. The same plant by the looks of it. :)
MarleneAnn, make the trip out to BroMagic it's a great little spot with some specimens that make me drool. Nice folk too when i was there last!
Regards to all
Enjoy the sorting out, Gordon! I sure could do with that 600 sq meter of brom back yard! And I also would say your oddity is a Neo macwilliamsii. Try to grow some of them in more sun. Then you will get an almost yellowy green plant with a more compact form and wider leaves. Even the cup flushes a more intense red then.
And Brod, have you tried to grow that Ae Shining Light as a single specimen? Still in bright shade though. And that Hoh c-a can take quite a bit of sun. Then the colour is very nice and the leaves shorter and wider.
Hey Japie
I have moved a clump of that MacWilliamsii out into a more sunny spot and I agree it has flushed a very deep red very quickly. Is that something that will stay on the plant or will it fade as the plant declines? I assume its getting ready to flower at this stage? Here is a more recent picture of one from the clump.
A quick question for you what is that in the terracota pot behind your Hoh? I have several similar and can't seem to get the markings to really pop no matter where I place them.
Looking great Gordon. Has been a bit too cold here of late to get too inspired in the garden but good to see its all systems go up your way. Keep the updates coming - always great to check out pics andlearn from others experiences/trials.
Hey Kristan
It's been pretty mild up here the last few days! I have managed to be productive in a few spots. Even went as far as to build a new mini greenhouse in a sunny position for my seedlings, pics to come amongst other things happening!
In the mean time my very common little Billbergia Fantasia has opened up properly over the last couple of days and is a real picture.
I hope you all get some warmer mornings to get outside!
Evening Garden Webbers!
Another update of a couple flowers that have poked out the last couple days with the winter weather here. Some serious wind gusts and chills has me worried more for my little seedlings then ever but they seem to be doing ok! Pictures of the latest stuff. Any missing ID's would be welcomed!

And for something a bit different a couple of shots form about 15 feet up in my frangipani tree. There is a lot of odd little fungus, orchids and things sprouting up there, its fascinating what I can find haning off the old girl.
Cool little orchid.
I have slummed it the last couple weekends working on the front yard, so there hasn't been a lot of movement in the Brom Garden, they seem to be doing ok on there own!
Definitely not 'Gee Whiz' Rick...different shape to end of leaves and GW is a larger Neo with wider leaves. Have a look at 'Yellow Delicious' which has similar banding and red tips....that looks much closer to me, but it's hard say and could be one of many concentrica/cruenta type hybrids around Oz.

Not sure who Narv is, but I personally read your Albany update right after you posted it. I was doing some major cracking up and was so glad I wasn't drinking anything!
I had lots of comments but there are just some topics/posts where I probably don't need to post the comments that pop into my head. This IS a family board after all......
Okay, okay......touche'
But you are correct, Marv is and you just never know when he might be cooking up a little something special for you there Rosie. And the rest of you "ladies" jumping my case just might want to watch out too.....
That makes sense.
There ya go. +1
Hey, you can't schedule everything. But yes, another chance.
We enjoyed it....very nice for a few days of sun and sand.
Narv shore wood.
It's all part of your plan.
As you were.
Get 'em.
It takes a little while to get caught up and back in the groove.
Shake 'n Bake!
Hey, whatever works.
Yeah, barefeet on a beach beats barefeet at a PC any day!
Yes, but oh so deliberate.
All I can say to these posts is....I've officially lost control!
But I love the banter!
Glad you had a picture perfect beach day! Love seeing the pretty color of the water when it is a nice day.
Everyone looks like they were having fun in their own way- reading, kite-flying, dancing, sand castle-building.
Well, everyone except for the guy who was goggle-searching.
So what was the deal with the mini-golf? Free on just that particular afternoon?
Loved the picture retort from your coworker!
That's one shell of a collection! Boy, that was bad! Think it is time to retire for the evening!
Whenever Marv is involved, you've lost control.
Yes, isnt it nice?! Especially in that stitched picture. It looks even better than it actually was.
Yup, that sums it up really well.
Oh yeah. That guy was bumming, but not as much as I wouldve been.
You caught me. I was kind of vague on that because I had the same question when I was writing the chapter
.and I cant remember! It was just that particular afternoon but I dont remember why if it was because we were DVC members or what. I do remember that we were told at check-in, I think she even wrote it on the resort map she gave me.
Fun stuff.
I like it! Nice one!
So, the plan for this evening was to drive over to Judys sisters house, go out to dinner with her family, and then get to the Turtle Walk at the Barrier Island Center by 9pm.
After we got back to the suite we experienced a series of events that I'll call the towel incident. Marlene wanted to take a shower, but thought that her towel wasnt in the same place as it had been and accused James of using it. He said he didnt, and I dont think he did, this time, but his track record wasnt very good since he had grabbed a fresh towel over the last couple of days rather than using his. We were in a classic standoff -- she wasnt going to shower without a fresh towel, and wasnt going with us that evening without taking a shower. Judy wasnt going to call for more towels when wed even gotten extra when we checked in. We got very, very close to the time that we had to leave and it looked like she was going to be spending the evening by herself in the suite, when I realized that I could offer her the towel animal that was on our bed when we arrived and was now on top of the TV stand. That worked, and she was able to take a super-quick shower and go with us. Crisis averted, although not without major drama and raised voices. Hey, were not perfect.
We were able to leave the suite at 4:30, and on the way to the van Judy admired the resort's landscaping. She took this picture of a hibiscus and used it as her cellphone background picture for a while.
We drove over to Judys sisters house and visited for a little bit with her, her husband, and son; wed be meeting their daughter at the restaurant a little later. It had been a long time since wed been at their house, since the last few times weve been to Florida DSiL has driven over to WDW to spend some time with us at the parks. I think Lauren vaguely remembered their house, Marlene didnt at all, and James had never been there. Their backyard ends at a canal and they have a dock on it, so the guys (and Marlene too I think) went and hung out there while the ladies visited inside. Thats such a different setup than we have in Pennsylvania, but it sure would be cool to be able to take a boat out to the ocean from your backyard. Soon, we realized that we needed to get going to the restaurant if we were going to make it to the Turtle Walk on time.
Dinner tonight would be at Sonnys Real Pit Bar-B-Cue. Wed talked about a couple of different options, including some restaurants that are commonly mentioned on the Vero Beach thread, like Ocean Grill and Squidlips, but Judys sister thought that they were a little too touristy for locals like themselves. And hey, we dont have any good barbecue places here where we live, so Sonnys sounded great to me!
We drove separately to Sonnys, and met my niece there. It was going on 7 oclock when we were seated.
Oh, this next picture reminds me. Driving over to DSiLs house, James started complaining about a major sunburn hed gotten that afternoon. DSiL gave us some ointment that they use, but the poor boy was in misery.
Across from me was Judy and her sister.
Toward the other end of the table were Lauren, Marlene, my niece, DBiL, and my nephew (whos appeared in previous TRs when DSiL has joined us at a park or two). My brother-in-law and nephew were a little camera shy. My brother-in-law never joined DSiL when she came over to visit us at DisneyWorld because I think hed rather be experience some kind of slow, painful torture than deal with the crowds of people at an amusement park. Hey, its not for everybody, and were probably all better off understanding that up-front! But hes a jokester, and he was threatening to order turtle soup tonight, (knowing where we were headed later, of course). He was sure that wed see a turtle tonight, since this walk was connected to Disney rather than a state park&he figured that they probably had some kind of animatronic turtle that they used.
Oh, one more story about my brother-in-law, or rather, one that hes told me. A couple of times. He works in construction, and says that one time a number of years ago he was at a zoning meeting when another guy was trying to get the rights to develop a particular property. The guy was denied the rights because some kind of endangered mouse was discovered on the property. Then, a couple of years later, it was announced that Disney was going to build the Vero Beach resort on that very same spot. He finishes the story with, it was a mouse all right! I dont know how true it is, but thats his story.
We looked at the menu and it was so hard to choose. Marlene asked, whats the difference between brisket and pulled pork? I said, Moo and oink.
Heres my plate. I was in the mood for some brisket.
Oh, and a nice generous helping of beans.
James got some wings, seasoned with one of their dry rubs.
I'm not sure what Lauren and Marlene got, either moo, oink, or cluck, but they liked it.
Everyone enjoyed the food they got at Sunnys. Id definitely return.
Although wed have liked to have visited longer, we needed to get going, so we made our exit at about a quarter to 8. Id forgotten to take a picture on the way in, but got one as we left.
We werent planning on going back to the suite before the Turtle Walk, but we realized that we forgot to close our blinds, plus one or two people wanted to change some clothing items, so we made a quick stop. Still, we were able to get to the Barrier Island Center by 8:30.
One of the workers was there in the parking lot, on her cellphone, and was a little frantic because she couldnt get a hold of anybody with a key to the Center. She told us we could wait there or walk down the wooden walkway to the beach access, if we wanted. So, we headed to the beach. As we waited, Judy took this picture of me and the kids.
It was a pretty windy night, and the wind blowing my jacket made me look like the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. I edited it on Instagram a little bit to crop it down some.
Eventually, someone was able to unlock the Center and we were let in. You can probably get an idea from the pictures on their website (link posted above), but compared to the state park facility from the night before, this place was like the Taj Mahal. Except, forget that the Taj Mahal is a mausoleum. What Im trying to say is, the Barrier Island Center was a beautiful, state-of-the-art facility. I dont mean that as a knock against the state park, I wouldnt hesitate to do a Turtle Walk there again, but just that this place was really nice. The area where we first entered had several exhibits complete with things to encourage interaction, like buttons to light up sections of the exhibit, or microscopes to look through. Then, the room where we went for their turtle presentation was a very nice screening room with theater seats and a big screen. Even so, the procedure they followed was pretty much the same as what we experienced the night before: while we saw a turtle presentation, volunteers would be out looking for turtles for us.
During the presentation, James was a like a turtle-savant -- he knew the answers to all of the presenter's questions, having just seen a presentation the night before. 's
We learned a neat rule-of-thumb about how the sex of a baby sea turtle is determined by where their egg is in the nest: Hot Chicks and Cool Dudes. Females form higher in the nest, where its warmed by the sun; males form lower, where its cool. They said that they discovered this when they incubated sea turtle eggs and got only females. Oh, and one more thing I didnt realize is that a female sea turtle can nest as many as 5 or 6 times in a summer, but average about 4. I had assumed that it was only once. They go back and forth between the beach and several miles offshore, where the males just swim around waiting for a female whos ready for coffee on the verandah. (Sorry Cynthia, I know Ive already used this line in the trip report, but hey, it works.)
The presentation also showed us some pictures of TEDs, turtle excluder devices, which are used on shrimp trawlers to allow accidentally captured sea turtles to escape. They said that shrimpers have been slow to embrace them, thinking that they will lose a big portion of their catch because of them, but the people at the Center are hopeful that improvements and legislation will change that.
One really encouraging thing they mentioned though, was that due to their location they have a higher sighting rate as compared to the Sebastian Inlet State Park. The state parks rate was about 75% and theirs was about 95%. So, we couldnt strike out twice in two nights, could we?
We finished the presentation and went out on the deck behind the building. They said that theyd already had reports of turtle activity. Woo hoo! We were just going to wait there for a while, while the turtle dug her body pit. They werent sure if she was going to complete nesting, because she had chosen a location that was up in the vegetation.
We waited, let our eyes adjust to the darkness, and I got my night-vision goggles going, which Id remembered to bring this time around.
Around 10 oclock we had a report of we have contractions and we were off. Quick, boil some water! (Why do they always say that in old movies?) I was almost as excited as I was when my own kids were born, and my kids could hardly contain themselves as we walked to where the turtle was.
We didnt have to walk far, the mama turtle picked a spot only about 50 yards south of the beach access.
Our group made a semicircle around the mama turtle, but the guides asked us to stay behind her head -- they didnt want anyone to spook her. I tried using the night-vision goggles, and so did James, but actually the red lights that the guides had illuminated the turtle just as well as looking through the goggles, so I soon put them away. The guides said that she wasnt tagged, and they dont do tagging. They measured her shell and she was 99 centimeters long (they measure the shell only), and estimated her weight at probably 250 to 300 pounds. She was one of the biggest turtles theyd seen so far this year.
Its kind of nice that the process takes a little bit of time, because we all had an opportunity to get a good look at her eggs dropping into the egg chamber. So cool!
At one point, one of the guides asked who was the youngest person in our group. It turned out to be a 7 year-old boy. The guide said that its their tradition that the youngest person gets to name the turtle, and the boy thought for a second and said Sasha. So there you have it, we watched Mama Sasha nest on this night. The guide said that they get a lot of Sandys, which is kind of interesting after our recent hurricane.
When she was done laying eggs, she started covering and camouflaging her nest, which involves a whole lot of flailing flippers and flying sand. James got hit by some sand, which ordinarily would be an unpleasant experience, but tonight it was kind of cool.
Now, we werent supposed to have any lights, but I was thinking of you guys, my faithful trip report readers, and wondered how I could get some kind of picture for you. So, before Mama Sasha finished and headed back to the water, I put my phone under my jacket and adjusted the brightness to the lowest level possible. Then, as she made her way back to the surf, I tried to get a picture. Its pretty bad, but hopefully you can kind of make her out.
I also took a few seconds of video. The sound may give you a better sense of the night that the actual picture.
sea turtle video
Once she was done camouflaging her nest, it was amazing how quickly she made her way back down to the surf. I followed her down, and almost ended up in the water myself.
By 11 oclock were heading heading home, and what a difference it was from the drive back the night before, we were so psyched. I dont know what else to say other than it was an awesome night! What a great memory well have of that occasion.

Quick answer 4 judys
Correction 3 judy's unless Marv says there is a reflection in the glass or that blurry pix is judy
I'm pretty sure that's Judy's reflection in the bake beans, so I'm going with 4 Judy's.
Your meal looked delish, sooo glad this was a successful Turtle walk!!!
Ok - Wow - that whole turtle egg laying thing sounds so cool. I am definitely intrigued, even if Sasha was animatronic.
I didn't know Judy's sister lived in Vero. That is so cool. How nice that you got to visit and hit a local joint for dinner.
The towel incident is too funny and I can definitely see something like that happening in my house. Too bad you had to sacrifice your towel animal for th cause. Kids!
Pictures 2,3,5,6 Judys
total 4
Make it 3 no judy in 5
I will go with Pat's original 4 Judy's in pictures 2, 3, 5 and 6. I see pink in the top right of picture 5 and Judy is the only one wearing pink.......
Just in case.....between the ketchup, glass of tea and above the salt shaker............
Whoo Hoo for a turtle sighting......
I can seet the whole towel thing. It might STILL happen in my house and mine are supposed to be grownups.
We have Sonny's here too. I am slowly developing a taste for BBQ. sheesh been down here long enough might as well.
Another great update glen! And yup, pretty much every family experiences "incidents" on vacations in Florida, I guess it must be the heat? At least, that what I tell myself
Glad you got to see a turtle though, I bet it was just as good as it sounds. Ill have to put that on the bucket list I think!
Separate names with a comma.

I've been going here since I was a child. Decent food, good service not to mention staying power. No matter how many restaurants open here it never seems to affect Denny's.
It's Denny's! The food was very good, the price was right, the location was great and the staff was very nice.
The meal was good. The service was good. The price was fair. The fixtures and décor was dated and could you a little face lift.
We were staying at a hotel in town for the night with our kids, and of course wanted to get them something they would have no problem eating: breakfast dinner! Food was good - we even had extras. The place was crowded - but it was 6:30 on a Sat. night. No big complaints, but it was nothing special.
I have frequented this Denny's on numerous occasions and from what I have compiled this Denny's location has decent food for the price, a friendly group of servers but management needs work. The female manager that works mornings you can just tell is putting on an act for her customers and just seems to bark orders at the girls like... More
Food is good. Service is average. Very busy location. Not enough staff too handle crowd. Needs expansion. Good value for price.
My best friend and I meet here sometimes for breakfast. The coffee is hit and miss. Sometimes you will get a good cup, other times not good at all. The food is ok...it's what I would expect from this type of chain restaurant. Their turkey bacon is all that. On our last visit we had this very overweight waitress that... More
