East Hartford - It was halftime Friday and Norwich Free Academy somehow still had a shot at winning the Class LL state football championship.
The Wildcats watched all-everything tailback Marcus Outlow get hurt on the sixth play of the game. Defensive back Chris Johnson went down several plays later with an ankle injury and couldn't return. They struggled to move the ball.
Yet it was halftime, and NFA only trailed Class LL kingpin Xavier by six points.
The second half began ... and Xavier proceeded to batter the Wildcats.
The Falcons ran for 408 yards and six touchdowns and routed NFA 48-14 to win a state-record third straight Class LL championship before 4,576 at Rentschler Field.
"I thought we were going to shut the run down completely," Wildcats senior Joey Paparelli said. "They came out ready for it and they played a great game. There's no doubt about it."
NFA, ranked eighth in The Day's Top 10 state coaches' poll, finished 12-1.
"We're moving in the right direction and will continue to do that," NFA coach Jemal Davis said. "Hopefully one day, we'll get back here and it'll be ours. Now we know what it's like."
NFA was feeling good about itself at halftime. It scored with a second left to cut its deficit to 20-14.
"I was concerned because they had all the momentum going into the half," Falcons coach Sean Marinan said. "I was getting flashbacks to the Hand (of Madison) game (a 40-20 loss)."
Xavier outgained the Wildcats in the second half, 258-63.
"We were excited," Davis said. "We thought, 'Hey, if we could just come up with a way to stop them offensively, we would be alright.'
"We just missed some opportunities, but that's the game."
It didn't help the Wildcats that Outlow pulled a muscle in the back of his ankle on his second carry. He returned later, but was too hobbled.
"They (Xavier) deserved it," Outlow said. "It's just unfortunate that I couldn't play to my full potential tonight. I was excited because the game plan was to get me the ball 30 times tonight, maybe even more.
"It just sucks that I came out here, and the one game this season that mattered the most, I got hurt. I could've taken it earlier in the season. I would've been fine with that. But to get here and have it happen, it's just unfortunate."
Davis said, "The story is really about what (Xavier) did, not the fact that anybody got injured."
The fifth-ranked Falcons (12-1) finished with an insurmountable 517-169 advantage in offensive yardage.
DeAngelo Berry carried 30 times for 260 yards and three touchdowns.
Xavier ran 52 times for an average of 7.8 yards.
"(Berry) started tearing it up, so we decided to ride him for the duration," Marinan said. "We could tell the beginning of the second half that we were really wearing on them and they weren't going to hold up against the run game."
Paparelli completed 7 of 19 passes for 86 yards with two touchdowns - all to Ryer Caruso - and an interception. Khaleed Exum-Strong ran 12 times for 90 yards for NFA. Elisa Formiglio kicked two extra points to become the first female to score in a state final.
The Falcons led 21-0 when Paparelli threw a 49-yard touchdown to Caruso with one minute, 56 seconds left in the first half.
Xavier fumbled the ensuing kickoff and NFA's Airec Ricks recovered it at the Falcons' 20.
Paparelli threw a 6-yard touchdown to Caruso with a second left in the first half.
"We knew we gave those points away," Berry said. "They didn't earn them. We knew we had to go out there and make a (defensive) stop, and that we were going to take the ball and score again and again and again."
NFA had minus 1-yard of total offense in the third quarter.
"It wasn't meant to be, I guess," Paparelli said. "We surpassed a lot of people's expectations. I thought we had it in us. I thought we were going to bring it home, but it just wasn't the case."

PHILADELPHIA — Every season, all NFL teams dream of that one lucky season with freedom from injury, blessed bounces, minor injuries that conveniently remove the star quarterbacks of their foes, weak division rivals and maybe even a miracle win somewhere along the way. But few teams ever get these gifts. When they do, like the Kansas City Chiefs, they normally have spectacular years, even if little was expected of them.
What is far rarer is an NFL team, like Washington this season, that gets almost every break — few injuries, five defensive touchdowns, injuries to five opposing quarterbacks, an insane escape for a win over San Diego, plus a weak schedule — and still totally flops.

WAQL-PP 0.1 released
With this post I am proud to announce the first release of WAQL-PP, a WAQL Preprocessor for Java I was working on for the last two weeks. In one of the former posts I described the motivation behind this little project and how I planned to implement it. I'm rather satisfied with the result, so without further ado comes a copy of the release notes for this version. If you are interested just visit the project page to check it out.
WAQL-PP 0.1 released. This is the first release of the WAQL Preprocessor for Java. Here is a short list of the most important features: * Resolves Data Dependencies between separate queries by converting replacement objects into a textual representation. * Handles nested Data Dependencies from innermost to outermost. * Transforms Template List constructs into valid XQuery for-clauses and handles correlations between different Template Lists. * Parser tested against the XML Query Test Suite (XQTS). This release was developed against and tested with Java SE 1.6.0_22. It uses Apache Ant as a build tool, JUnit 4.8.2 for testing purposes, JavaCC 5.0 as a parser generator and has no additional runtime dependencies. It is currently being used as a component in the WS-Aggregation framework. Information about the project and general documentation can be found on http://www.antforge.org/waqlpp The WAQL-PP 0.1 release packages can be downloaded from http://www.antforge.org/waqlpp/download/waqlpp-0.1/ File : waqlpp-0.1-src.zip md5sum : 57d06bfedaf1abd6eeed793838d96fc7 sha1sum: 1a5fd2196a0916fd74479c4e7aaa57811b673e3b File : waqlpp-0.1.jar md5sum : bf97850f878014090eb9b9849e18ab37 sha1sum: 74c4e0e7e78bc16fea4bfd1b0954439e74636118 Enjoy!

Jon Meacham: Socializing as a Political Tool
Jon Meacham is the author of "Thomas Jefferson: The Art of Power."
IN this hour of reflexive partisan division, with Americans frustrated by Washington's seeming inability to address significant fiscal questions, among other issues, an inevitable question arises: Can President Obama do anything to create enough good will to pass some lasting reforms?
Here is a modest proposal, one drawn from the presidency of another tall, cool, cerebral politician-writer: use the White House and the president's personal company to attempt to weave attachments and increase a sense of common purpose in the capital. Dinners with the president — or breakfast or lunch or coffee or drinks or golf — won't create a glorious bipartisan Valhalla, but history suggests that at least one of our greatest presidents mastered the means of entertaining to political effect.
During both of his terms, on the eve of each Congressional session, President Thomas Jefferson warned friends that, in our vernacular, he was about to go offline. "As Congress will meet this day week, we begin now to be in the bustle of preparation," he wrote a family member. "When that begins, between the occupations of business and of entertainment, I shall become an unpunctual correspondent."...

happy Streptocarpus
I have a Streptocarpus that I bought 2 years ago and potted up once into a std 6". It is green and covered with flowers. It has entirely filled the pot, to the point that I can't get a finger in to feel the soil, and have to water from the bottom as the water rolls off the leaves. It seems happy. Do I just leave it there forever?
I read in a few sites about repotting. Is that necessary? Will the plant fall apart into smaller plants?
Winnjoe, how long since the last repotting? A rule of thumb with Streps is usually to repot every six months but not more than a year. Streps seem to lIke being repotted. It encourages a spurt of new growth.
If you do repot don't worry, the plant will not fall apart into smaller pieces. I would however suggest you divide your plant into two to make room for it to grow in the 6" pot. Just clean your pot good put new soil and in no time it will be full again! Plant the division in another pot and enjoy it or you can share with someone else.
Yes Joe, I would do both. Over time soil / peat's ph will change. I would also scrub out the pot good so no accumulated salts from fertilizer will be present.
Personally, I take as much soil from the roots as I can. I will cut the roots back 1/3rd if they have filled the pot. From my experience I have not had any problems with plants going into shock or any setback. It seems to stimulate growth for me.

Archery season is getting ready to close this weekend, and I have to say that I am not disappointed. For the few times I was able to get out this season, I have made some great memories. Hunting doesn't always have to be judged on whether or not you fill you tag, but the memories you make while attempting to.
I'm pretty good at spotting fake videos. Undecided on this one...
Growing up in Butte and Helena, Montana, I split a whole lot of firewood. I actually enjoyed it. Hauling and stacking it...not so much. But splitting was always fun. Here's how you power down on it when you're not 16 years old and ready to split wood by hand all day:

Brad Paisley returns to the water for his dramatic new 'Perfect Storm' video. While the entire clip won't be available until Tuesday (Oct. 7), the star has shared this intriguing preview with Taste of Country readers first.
In Darius Rucker's brand new music video for 'Homegrown Honey,' there are two main points of attraction: a gorgeous and very flirtatious woman, and the country star jamming with his band.
Carrie Underwood has never shied away from publicly expressing her deep Christian faith, and her new song, 'Something in the Water,' is a perfect example.
With movies being made that reflect the wars of the past 13 years, one thing that worries people who have been deployed is "will Hollywood properly depict the story." Bradley Cooper is set to play the role of "the most deadly sniper in U.S. history," Chris Kyle, in the upcoming movie "American Sniper." Cooper had only one short conversation with the legendary sniper, right before he lost his life to a "troubled veteran" in Texas.
So, you think you're cool because you took your bike out for a 10-mile jaunt in the rain? Puh-leeze.

Questions about dwarf peach
Trying to 2-3 plant dwarf peach (bare root) in containers next spring. The location I am thinking does not have a lot of direct sun light (Which one of the following cultivars would you recommend?
El Dorado peach / Lovell
Empress Dwarf Peach / Lovell
Pix Zee Dwarf Peach/Lovell
Also what size of container would you recommend? 10 or 15 gallon?
Many thanks in advances
I won't get a genetic dwarf peach. Maybe the fruit is OK but I'm thinking regular peaches are likely better. You don't need a dwarf for a 10-15 gallon pot. I've fruited many stone fruit in that size. The small pot keeps the tree from getting too big. Mine have never exceeded 5ft with no pruning.
Here's picture of three normal size nectarines fruiting in a 12 gallon pot.
This is 4 nectarine in a 25 gallon pot. All fruited. They don't get much taller and if so are easily pruned. You'd be amazed how little time is spend pruning these type trees, minutes a year.
As to varieties you might check out the offerings at Adam's County Nursery. The advantage of normal varieties is there is probably a lot more information than on the genetic dwarfs. Redhaven would be a good place to start and build from there. Also consider bacterial spot resistance. ACN catalog has good info on spot and cold hardiness.
I grew some of the genetic dwarfs and the fruit was OK but I would strongly agree with fruitnut: grow a regular peach. The genetic dwarf fruit quality is much worse. If it gets big you can always prune it back - you can make the tree exactly the size you want.
Thank you all for the advices.
Fruitnut, Your peach trees are awesome!
Can I mix different cultivars in the same pot or mix with nectarine? After checking ACN, I am thinking Sentry (early) Gloria (late) and Fantasia (nectarine) Are these ok choice?
This post was edited by FruitNewbieNYC on Tue, Aug 5, 14 at 23:12
For nectarines I would suggest an earlier variety which are less subject to cracking and easier to protect from brown rot, if only because of the shorter growing season. I like Eastern Glow, but it is not available from ACN this season. My rep there suggests Avalon as a sub. Nectarines are tougher to grow than peaches but so worth it.
There are advantages to peaches that have a long picking period. A good early mid-season that has about a 3-week season for our area is is Jonboy. In a pot, Redhaven would probably be about as good.
Gloria is a low-acid peach, as I recall and I'm not crazy about fruit without ample acid with that sugar. Make sure they don't tout Avalon as a low acid variety if you now what I'm talking about and agree.
Earnie's choice has the acid but a short picking window. It even wins taste tests on the west coast.
Madison has been a standard later peach in my nursery for a long time because of very good quality and a very long picking season as well as for its frost hardy buds, but in my own orchard I prefer the quality of Messina. I have so many different peaches that a long picking window is not really important to me.
Encore is my standard late and I'm in the process of evaluating best early peaches- I'm leaning towards Desiree after being dissatisfied with a couple of others when I needed to replace Harrow Diamond in this category.
In the end, there are so many great peaches that it is difficult to choose. New ones come out so quickly that I can't even begin to keep up with them all. If whatever you choose is known as a high quality peach I'm sure you will be more than happy with it.
Alex while you could mix multiple peaches in the same pot its just not worth the hassle as a first-time peach grower. Also I would avoid nectarines since they have more problems. Since you are in NYC I expect all that concrete will reduce the amount of diseases/bugs you get but you will still have problems.
No issue mixing peach and nectarine either in one pot or separate. I mentioned multiple trees per pot mostly to dispel the notion that you need genetic dwarf trees in pots. You seem to accept the notion that you don't so that's a good start. That said one tree in a 12-15 gallon pot is a good way to start.
I like the sweet/tart fruit as well. But don't dismiss low acid nectarines. They are my best fruit, both white and yellow flesh. I don't know how they'd work in NYC but in my greenhouse they have plenty of flavor if not over watered.
Scott, I don't find early nectarines to be more difficult than peaches- you should try an Eastern Glow. A few more of the fruit may be deformed, but if you are willing to use synthetic intervention they are not all that difficult. I don't use more sprays on early nectarines and three is enough here- the third being only fungicide.
Olpea, I like to buy my trees not graft on rootstocks and no wholesaler carries Harrow Diamond that I work with. It is also not a very cooperative grower and does not long stay a compact and productive tree compared to other varieties. There is nothing wrong with the peach itself for an early variety though.
FN, it is probably wiser to start with a nectarine that has already proven itself in east coast conditions. Also, the low acid CA peaches I've tried all suck as grown outside, at least to my palate. Can't develop your high brix levels here. However, if Adams starts marketing any of the ones you recommend I'll have them send me one- they are marketing all the Zaiger types that they are confident can be reasonably productive here.
Did you read the article in Good Fruit about Candycots? Thought about you when I read that article because they expect all their varieties to start at about mid '20's. Maybe you should contact the breeders and beg for a couple of trees. Show them a photo of your set up and I bet they will be receptive.
Candycots sound interesting but doubt they'd send me or anyone else a tree. I'm not very good at begging for stuff.
I thought the article about "Predicting Fruit Quality" in same issue was interesting. Commercial growers may actually take an interest in growing good eating fruit...OK that might be a stretch. Anyway they stated there is a high correlation of consumer acceptance to fruit dry matter content, DMC. That is people like less watery fruit. That correlates strongly to high brix fruit. In apples they use DMC because that includes the high starch content at harvest.
They went on to say that fruit from over cropped apple trees have way lower DMC. Also said that good light exposure and "proper" irrigation increase DMC. Didn't say what proper irrigation amounts to.
Scott et al,
Did u ever try growing Eldorado in particular, or just some of the other genetic dwarves?
I have been eye-balling Eldorado as 1 of 3 peaches which I estimate may ripen as early as the Fourth of July here in Maryland-- the others being Springcrest and Flavorich (aka Rich May). This makes them very appealing to me.
I would like to grow Springcrest, but I can't seem to find a tree for sale anywhere, despite this reportedly being one of the most widely grown early peaches in the country (it was released by Victor Prince, USDA- Byron, Ga). I sampled these from a local orchard during the first week of July. They are yellow semi-freestones with good flavor. Sooner Plant Farm of Okla may be the only mail-order that is known to have carried it in recent years, but they're out of stock now.
I plan to order Flavorich/Rich-May from Vaughn's or Adams soon-- another well-known early yellow (semi-cling) reported to be Eastern-compatible & have good flavor too.
Is there anyone growing Eldorado in the Mid-Atlantic? Perhaps it could perform well here in the humid East? It is said to be freestone & flavorful when grown in Calif. Raintree is selling it out of the Pac Northwest. Would be interested in anyone's experiences with these varieties. Thanks for whatever insights you can provide.

Researcher Warns That Military Must Prepare For "Mutant" Future 179
from the laser-eyes-forward dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
You morons. I WAS a weapon. By the end of my training I would have have killed a bus full of nuns and orphans with a spoon, if so ordered. I wouldn't have cared about nationality or skin color or if they were good looking, just if they were the designated target or not. That's the wonder of intense psychological conditioning. Helsinki Syndrome isn't just a made up thing, it's the core of all intense military conditioning programs, and it sinks in even worse if you have Asperger Syndrome. It took me years to readjust to civilian life after separation.from the service. How did they de-militarize me? Gave me a two minute briefing about how I would be charged and tried by a military court if I talked about any classified actions I'd been a part of. Period. They stamped my paperwork, gave me my final paycheck, and said I had 24 hours to get off post.
If there had been any hardware installed in me, they would have removed it or destroyed it, and only left something functioning (at bare minimal levels) if it was life-critical. The hardware may be military, but the biological portion is under contract. A pretty nasty contract, but still a legal binding agreement. If they perform any "elective medical procedures" you can be sure that they'll have the DOD's ass covered, and yours will be flapping in the breeze. And before someone mentions it: Secret medical experiments on troops (and civilians) are a f*cking tradition,for the military. Laws won't change that. You think that breaking a few laws means anything to a corp of cold-blooded killers?

I'm also trying to find out if this is possible. I've just switched from AT&T DSL to RoadRunner.
Well, I did a lot of research even on a 2Wire Forum and found nothing that could help, but after some troubleshooting, I was able to somehow bypass the 2Wire settings, and only use its Wireless.
You see, I have the following:
a Motorola SurfBoard SB4200 and a 2Wire HomePortal 1000HW.
I've recently unsubscribed from AT&T's DSL and subscribed to RoadRunner's Cable Internet. In this process, I've purchased and await the delivery of a Netgear WGT624 Wireless Super-G router.
Since I support 3 computers that were previously connected via Wireless to my 2Wire HomePortal 1000HW, I needed to do something about it. What I did is the following:
1. Connect the 2Wire HomePortal 1000HW to the Motorola SurfBoard SB4200 using an Ethernet cable. (The 2Wire must not be connected to the AC Power Adapter).
2. Disable the Wireless Zero Configuration through Services.msc in Windows XP Professional.
3. Connect AC Power Adapter to 2Wire.
4. Turn on Wireless Zero Configuration.
5. Right-click on Wireless Network Connection icon in System Tray and select "View Available Wireless Networks".
6. Select 2WireXXX and click "Connect".
7. If prompted, enter Network Key.
8. Upon connecting to device, right-click on Wireless Area Connection icon and select "Repair".
These steps pretty much did it. I am unable to access the 2Wire's system settings by typing in the URL bar of my browser:
Now be advised, this may or may not work with certain 2Wire DSL HomePortals. It took me well over 4 hours to figure this out.
Hey, im just trying to do kinda the same thing. Im just switching over to cable (right now i have both, got a 30 day trial). I have a DSL Home Portal 1800HG. The cable company installed yesterday my cable modem. Since I have 2 PC + 1 wireless + Xbox I'm in need of a router. I was thinking if it is possible to use the Homeportal as a router connected to the cable modem. Will your trick there work with this Homeportal?
Here's the snag for you: You need to define an internal gateway that redirects internal traffic through a NAT to the public Internet. The problem is that the public Internet for the PRTC 2-Wire modem is through a DSL connection. That means that the modem expects your public IP address to be assigned through the DSL side of the modem (the WAN side). But with your new cablemodem service you don't have a DSL service to assign your IP. Even if you did assign the IP address (which the ISP likely won't allow because that would make it a static address) the WAN connection is still on a DSL connection which you don't have - so I guess it's a no-go. Sorry to be the purveyor of bad news.. My situation is a little different. I had a netgear wireless router sitting around that was available to use. It's WAN connection is ethernet not DSL. The OneLink Motorola (cheapie) modem (which works fine) can connect with either ethernet or USB. I set the Netgear router WAN link to obtain the IP address automatically, which it does through the modem and Onelinks servers. The NAT is turned on so it routes traffic fine. It also has a wireless side so I use it as an access point at one side of my apartment. The difference is I'm not using the 2-Wire modem as a router. Only for it's wireless capability. I'm not even using it's DHCP services which I have shut off. When a wireless device connects to it the DHCP request is passed through to the netgear router where I am running DHCP. So the 2-Wire Modem is only functioning as a wireless connection point and a hub essentially.. and really that's all I needed. The extra wireless access point gives me the coverage I need in the apartment and the hub allows me to connect a few things directly to it. BTW the hub is also how it's connected to the netgear router through some cabling I did in my apt.. So I think you could pick up a cheap router (doesn't have to be wireless) and do what I did. (I taped over the annoying DSL light which is always red cuz it can't connect to the telco) BTW CompUSA in PR is really overpriced.. You might check Sams or Costco for a router, or got to tigerdirect.com.. Buena Suerte!
I have a SpeedStream 6520 wireless ADSL gateway and I'm switching to internet through Mediacom cable. I used my wireless router hardwired to two computers in the same room and wirelessly to two other computers in the house. Does anyone know anything about this particular router that could help me?
Yes this is unfortunate. I still have both services running since not sure about Cable vs DSL. My cable somehow for downloading is kinda slow although spped test shows faster download than the DSL. And now that I have to buy a new router...I have to check. I will probably follow ur suggestion and go to Costco. Any router hint u could share with me? I'll like one with firewall as the 2-wire unless u can give some pointers here. Alos so as you know houses are concrete one that has a good wireless range and with 4 ports. Picky picky. Well I have 3 PC's plus Xbox so need those connections. Thanks for your answer.
Btw took me too long to check your answer, work work work, not even time to check my personal emails at work. ssshhhh i shouldnt.
Great feedback I got it working I also changed my wireless router IP by connecting a cable to it and I was able to log into in without an issue.
Please disable DSL line selection by going to
Broadband link --> Advance settings (R)
--> click disable next to - ATM PVC Search:
--> and choose line one under - DSL Line Selection: (L)
This stops router from searching for DSL line and it stops clicking.
Hope this help others.
I tried the above steps and was able to access the internet via wireless, but this is limited to 1 laptop. If I access the internet simultaneously from more than one laptop I get the gateway error, can you help?
i wanna use my 2wire wireless network just as a network hub for my cable modem to connect my 2 computers, so what i did is connect the computers and the cable modem to the 2wire's Ethernet jacks (yes where you would normally connect all of your computers, im a noob) but it kinda worked one of the computers had fully functioning internet while the other got an error message in the browser from 2wire/sbc
(i don't have sbc) saying "DSL Failed to Connect" so i disconnected both 2wire and the cable modem while i restarted the pcs and then connected them back(so i get new ip) and the problem was reversed, now the computer that got the error in the first place works and the other one doesn't, its a simple problem for a simple task and clearly i don't have the answer so if some one can help it will bee very appreciated even if its not possible ill like to know, thanks
I think you absolutely can. You said you switched over to cable from dsl? Good choice!
I'm not sure of the exact model I used, because
I did this for my apartment complex and it is now behind locked doors. Basically I went through the options within the 2wire config page (gateway.2wire.net for my model) and I was able to dig up something along the lines of "Broadband Connection" and there was the option of manually assigning the IP Address for the router, as well as the Default Gateway, etc. I just put an unused IP for the router and copied over the other setting from the wired network. Now it provides my complex wireless internet even though we have comcast as an ISP...
Yes you can use the 2wire as a wireless router only, the only problem is that to configure the broadband link you need to log into the management console. The management console is different for each isp. I work for an ISP and the management console password is changed somewhat regularly. I cannot give it out for the reason that some people will change every setting they can get their hands on to try and increase their speed, in the process a certain percentage brick their modem, costing us a service call.
This works with ANY DSL modem or wireless router I have tested it with so far. Once I even used something like it to connect 2 computers over a LAN one via ethernet and another via USB (that had no ethernet) with a Motorola Cable Modem. It ASSUMES you have an existing router on the network, whether in the cable modem or an external router.
On the 2 wire modem or router, access the user interface and disable DHCP server.
On the 2 WIre modem or router, Assign the LAN segment a safe and Valid IP on your network on the same subnet. (this may work on a different subnet, but you will lose access to the config page. Do not forget to use a valid subnet mask.
Once the IP is changed and DHCP server deactivated you will need a temporary fixed IP to see and reconnect to the modem??s new IP.
You will need to configure the wireless on both the 2 wire and the computer you will connect from.
Now connect your existing Modem/router to the 2wire modem/router??s LAN port. If this is a router, you will not use the WAN port at all.

Epi - Getting ready to POP!!
I got this cutting in 9/02 (snail mail swap) and it's getting ready to pop...tonight I think! It's the Epiphyllum oxypetalatum, night blooming and so fragrant they say it will run you out of the house. E. strictum has been blooming for several years for me but this is the first time this one has bloomed!! Yeah, I'm just a little excited! :)
Glad you all liked it. It was something to see! The more it opened the more you could smell it's incredible fragrance!
Not a great pic but was trying to show the size of it. Hard to hold the ruler and camera at the same time, lol...
I tried to pollinate it about 2 with a little brush and it starting closing as soon as I did that. You could watch and see it slowly start moving. Could even hear it make little sounds like a rustling as it started closing in.
Very pretty! Are epis difficult to grow, I'm always interested in scented plants?
Epi's are not difficult to grow if you have a bright window with blinds...and a good draining soil.
They like bright indirect light, and the soil mix I use is 1/3 peat, 1/3 vermiculite and 1/3 perilite.
I only have cuttings so far....so what I do is let the cuttings heal for a week after being cut, then dip them in rooting get and plant them in my mix.
I mist them daily for about a week, then I start to water very very sparingly. They DO NOT like being wet.
For the little extra effort you give them....you can get blooms that are sometimes 7-12 inches big! Not too shabby! lol
The easiest ones to grow are Epiphyllum Oxypetalum or I have found Epiphyllum Ackermaii to be really easy to get to root as well.
From a cutting it takes from 2-3 years to get a bloom.
Some of the more fragrant hybrdis are: Acadia, Bright Star, Cooperii, Desert Sunrise, Anguliger, oxypetalum, and Wrayi.
If you want to learn alittle more info go to Junglecactus.com and go to the culture section...they give great care instructions...and, you can take a peek at some gorgeous flowers!!
A really good source on Ebay for Epiphyllum plants or cuttings is Don C. from Epiphyllum World...he is really nice and helpful!!
Red, I thought it was a pretty spicy/earthy scent, pretty overpowering if you stayed in the room with it for too long, but mild through the rest of the house. These hang on my front (north facing) porch in the summertime, but we brought it in that night to watch and take photos. Also do you have the actual species E. ackermanii or the hybrid, there's a lot of confusion about that one? I bought one and after doing some research found out I actually had the hybrid.
Squirrel, they're some of the easiest indoor plants (winter) that I've ever grown,... you can grow them from seed, they're normally pollinated by bats and large moths, but can be hand pollinated.
They're epiphytic "jungle" cactus and like to be a little moist unlike desert cacti which like to dry in between waterings. I keep mine moist, but not soggy, try to never let them dry out all the way and use a lot additives with regular potting soil... orchid bark, permatill, coarse sand and soil conditioner so it does drain real well.
In nature they live in the top of rain forest trees, oak trees in Mexico and the Caribbean. They live off the dead bugs, bird droppings, fallen leaves, etc that land in the crotch of tree branches. In the summer time I water them a lot and then barely in the winter. They do fine in the house over winter, but they seem to like the coolness of the greenhouse to set buds. Strictum has bloomed after wintering indoors, but the others may be a bit pickier.
I start feeding them a bloom booster about Feb (no or low nitrogen). After they bloom let them rest a bit and then use a fert w/nitrogen. Stop feeding in the fall.
Epiphyllums are related to Hylocereus (Dragon Fruit) which I'm trying to grow as well. Red gave excellent advice about rooting them, the only thing I would add is they root a whole lot better in summer or even fall than they will in winter. They'll root in winter but veeery slowly making it eaiser for them to rot.
Once rooted keep them root bound in a small pot and they'll grow better. Once big enough to bloom they still like to be crowded. The leaves are actually modified stems and they can get pretty straggly looking, but it doesn't effect the blooming once it starts.
I finally got the last of the closing pics uploaded....
I traded for an Ackermanii, and it should be here tomorrow ( I hope) .
I have heard there is a lot of confusion about that type....I guess I'll have to hope mine blooms before I'm 90. lol
I wish I had some mature plants so I could see some blooms!
I always heard Oxypetalum was one of the fasted growing Epiphyllums....but, yours did not bloom for 6 years....the being discouraged has set in! lol
Just pickin'!!
I won 4 Oxypetalum cuttings on an Ebay auction about a month ago...and they rooted in no time flat!
The only one I have now that refuses to root is a William Clarke cutting......he doesn't like me I don't think.
He's in the exact same conditions as everyone else...but nothing. :(
I moved him over to the top of the a/c unit for a little extra warmth to the soil...I'm hoping this works!
When do you bring your epi's in? I'm too big a chicken...I was thinking in another 2 weeks or so about moving them indoors....I just can't stand the thought of anything happeneing to them after all the baby-ing i'm doing to them. lol
I can't wait to smell my first Oxy bloom...you inspired me! :O)
Red, I think they like a little chill. Mine are under the front porch roof so I leave them out until they're calling for a good frost. They use to come into the house for a couple months and then under the house (crawlspace) for the rest of the winter, but last year I had them all in the greenhouse so they got a lot more chill. Some of what I've read suggest that they don't like any light at night in the winter to set blooms. This is one of those plants that everyone has an opinion on as far as getting it to bloom. Sometimes I think the plant just does it when it's good and ready, lol...
I do think one of the factors in getting them to bloom is they like to be rootbound. When a strap gets too long I started cutting it off and stuck it back into the pot. The absolute fastest to bloom for me has been the E. strictum. It started blooming the next year. I had a nice sized cutting with that one, so that might have made a difference. John had a cutting with no roots bloom! Oxy, might not have taken so long to bloom if I had understood a little more about its needs.
Don't fret about the non rooting one. Some just like to take their sweet time. I've had a few that way. Just keep it spritzed and out of the sun.
Now that oxy and bw have started blooming, each year they'll increase the number of blooms. Strictum has set multiple blooms at least 6 times this year and is still setting blooms! It'll probably bloom all the way up to frost and last year it bloomed again just after bringing it in.
If you ever get the chance to go to our zoo in Asheboro they have a huge E oxy in the bird house. Some of the straps are several feet long. It travels all over the place!
Oh, I haven't been to the zoo in Asheboro in forever it seems like!
My husband was born and grew up in Sophia, NC....He used to camp every weekend right outside the zoo. lol
Good place for him! heheh
I'm going to have to go to the zoo the next time I come up to visit my parents! I had no clue they had an Oxy in there!!!
Is it still real crowded in that bird house? lol
I've bought some epi's over the years and gladly taken some cuttings off Rootdiggers hands. There is something magical about storing tropical plants in a simple greenhouse in the winter. I build a large "hoophouse" with pvc pipe and plastic sheeting that I heat with a simple electric space heater most nights and then a kerosene heater on the really cold nights. There are a few nights that get down to freezing but obviously not throughout the entire structure. Plants that I have owned for millions of years suddenly started blooming regularly! Nun Orchids, Bromeliads, all sorts of tropical cactus, Citrus trees - a lot of things need a winter chill period they just don't want to actually freeze.
Some people say that with some species the leaves have to reach a certain length before the plant will bloom and others say that the entire plant has to reach a certain weight before blooming happens. None of mine are all that large and like Deb said, one of her cuttings bloomed before it had rooted. One thing I do believe is that the hybrids tend to bloom longer - the flowers open at night but stay open for the next couple of days.
I will be bringing some epi's to the Raleigh Swap.
Well, I do beleive I will be attending the Raleigh swap then! lol
I have been rooting some cuttings from my babies...so I should have enough to take to both the Triad and the Raleigh swaps.
I think my husbands popular time at work should be coming to a close by then...so I could make that trip. I need to pick a plant up that way anyway!!
John, do you have a local place you buy Epi's?
I can say....there really is no place to buy Epi's here....except the occasional ric rac at Lowes....or if you are lucky...a curly leaf Epi.
I'm so scared to leave these out for a chill....it sounds like the thing to do...but, it makes my heart skip a beat to think about it! lol
I need to think about a way to build my own greenhouse structure!
My husband has been telling me as soon as we get all the DIY stuff around the house done he'd build me one....but, he has been working so much that we haven't even started the DIY stuff yet. lol
We have an old shed that was left on the property that was once going to be the manshed with Go-cart stuff in it...but, the go cart hobby was left in the dust for r/c racing stuff...and it's all left in the house.....so the shed just sits there.
It's an old aluminum one.....I'll have to think about that!
Oh my goodness.....if you would like some of mine...buy all means you are welcome to some! I have some already rooted sitting on my a/c unit right now. lol
The Lowes in Ft. Mill, SC usually has an outstanding selction of houseplants....however, there is like a better than 40% chance that you are going to have to figure out what you have if you buy a Hoya or a Rhipsalis.....they are mislabeled A LOT!!
Maybe we can set up a side trade for the curly epi.....and I'll bring them with me to the swap!! :)
The cuttings that I have the most to swap are the fishtail or ric rac type of epi. Most of these are hybrids and never bloom. Where I used to work they have a wild species plant of the foundation for all the ric rac epi's and it bloomed - it was a disappointment, nothing showy, kinda brownish small flowers.
I buy some at Logan's Trading Company in downtown Raleigh but they do not stock them on a regular basis. There is a family run cactus specialty nursery that mans a booth at the Raleigh Farmers Market - I'm not sure they are there this year but they were up until the drought set in.
There are epi only greenhouse/nurserys usually out of florida where they send the cuttings to you unrooted. I believe they have every color known to exist and sometimes two tone ones. You'd need to do an online search to find them (there are many). Most of the larger plants around Raleigh (like Logan's) are pretty expensive ($14-$20).
Thank you for the good information! I know this will sound aweful...but, I'd gladly spend $14.00-$20.00 for a mature plant...in fact...I'd do it in a heartbeat. lol
I want some blooms! I have been buying my cuttings from Junglecactus.com...and I have bought rooted cuttings from Don's epiphyllum world...he's really nice.
On Ebay the more mature plants sell for 40 bucks or more!
You are having problems with your hybrids blooming?
Very nice epi-plants! The problem I always run into is that after they are established, they grow rapidly. Then you go from one small cutting to multiple pots overflowing with plants. I have limited greenhouse space, so it gets filled up quickly.

Help! Need opinions on arch color
HI- Reposting....Need help. Need to decide by 4pm today- buying the paint today!
I would like an opinion on which to do. I am painting my dining room Benjamin Moore's Interlude color (like a brownish neutral). We have small entryway into the dining room (which is where our front door is) and it has an arch. My question is should I paint the whole entryway including the arch the accent color Frappe or just the actual arch? Which would look better? My husband and I have a difference of opinion. Thanks!
The Frappe appears to have some yellow/green in it, and on my monitor, is a much cooler color than Interlude. Have you considered Truffle for the entry or having BM cut Interlude and use a lighter shade of it? Personally, I'd paint the inside edge of the arch the color of the entry.

Husky Tip of the Day: No outfit is complete without a little Husky hair. You can also add a dash of husky hair to your stew for just the right flavor. Okay if you have huskies in your home, sometimes hair in your food is just unavoidable. Hair on your clothes, well that's why they make lint brushes and tape.

If Beyoncé, shown here with husband Jay-Z, actually did lip-sync the national anthem at the
presidential inauguration, she was hardly the first. Here, a look back
at some historic lip-sync moments.
Britney Spears, a repeat offender in this category, so outraged fans in Perth, Australia, during her Circus tour in November 2009, that they actually walked out. Politicians there started calling for laws to make sure that if performers want to lip-sync they have to disclose doing so ahead of time. Did it hurt her? Doesn't seem like it. Although Spears has left the X Factor, her contract for the show was for $16 million.
Pop band Milli Vanilli was the brainchild of German producer and songwriter Frank Farian who recorded a group album with a bunch of vocalists, but later recruited Fab Morvan (left) and Rob Pilatus (right) who were dancers and models, to front the group. The album Girl You Know It's True went six times platinum in 1990, but the band was later stripped of its Grammy after the track began to skip during an MTV performance, and the media started to scrutinize the band, concluding that its "singers" didn't even sing on the album. Consumer lawsuits and a settlement followed, with up to 10 million people eligible for refunds ranging from $1 to $3 each.
Alan Light/Wikipedia
Country star Garth Brooks declined to pre-record his performance at the Super Bowl in 1993 and also refused to perform at the event unless NBC played his new video first. The NFL has since required performers to have a backup track.
Steve Jurvetson/Wikipedia
One of the most entertaining lip-sync blunders involved Ashlee Simpson, who was busted on Saturday Night Live. Her father and manager Joe Simpson said he decided she should lip-sync after it became apparent during dress rehearsals that acid reflux disease had swollen Ashlee's vocal cords. It was a black eye for Saturday Night Live whose executive producer Lorne Michaels told 60 Minutes he had no idea Ashlee was going to lip-sync her performance on the famously live show. In 2011, Ashlee teamed up with older sister Jessica Simpson on a tween clothing line.
Saturday Night Live/Fox News/
Among the numerous mobile apps for lip-sync amateurs is one released by electronic pop duo Cassius in 2010, a free iPhone app that lets users pick the mouth of their choice, red lips, mustache, etc. and then lip-synch the band's song, "I Love U So." Now that's word-of-mouth marketing.
