did I plant too early?
This is the first time I've been able to have a garden of my own and have maybe gotten a little too excited and planted my dahlias too early. I'm in Maryland, zone 7a and have just planted some dahlia tubers today. While I read quite a bit before planting I've only just learned that the ideal soil temperatures for planting are 50-80 degrees. I planted them today after having read that they can be planted once danger of frost has passed, which I believe it has, but apparently it may still be too early to plant them and maybe I should have waited another month?
Another concern I have is that I didn't till the soil deep enough. I've planted them about 4-5 inches deep in a clay-like soil, but only tilled to about 7 inches deep and only in the area where the tuber was planted. I did mix the planting soil with compost as well as some fertilizer. So basically, my questions are the following:
1. If I planted them too early, should i dig them back up and wait another month to plant them? What happens if I leave them planted?
2. If it is ok to leave them planted, what about the tilling? Should I dig them up and till the soil further and replant them? How important is it to till the soil to the proper depth?
Thanks to everyone for taking the time to answer my questions!
I have a different problem...my garage has been too warm, and the tubers I saved over the winter had to get planted today or die; some had sprouts a foot tall. Needless to say, I am checking craigslist every day to buy a frig to use next winter!
Anyway, for your temp. problem, I tried to look up your soil temp. and found this site. I don't know exactly where you are, but you have a good chance of being okay, temp. wise! I'm pretty sure I usually have to plant mine before the soil temp. is 50.
for your second problem (only tilling 7 in. down), that's better than I do. I have, the past couple of years, slapped newspaper down, put down my tubers, and put soil, compost, potting soil, whatever I have, on top of them. I'm not saying it's ideal, but I have had absolutely gorgeous results...last year they were 4 to 5 feet tall, and the flowers large and numerous enough to be seen 2 neighbors' yards away.
Here is a link that might be useful: soil temp. one site in Maryland
I would call a local nursery to be sure, but I think you may have planted too early. If you leave them in there in cold soil they could rot. I usually plant in zone 5 in early May but have planted in the late teens of April. If I plant early I always check the 10 day forecast and if it looks iffy, I hold off. Check your 10 day forecast and if it doesn't look like you'll get enough warm days where the soil will get to 60 at least then dig them up and wait a couple of weeks. I don't think you need to wait a month though.
I agree with Katy.
They could rot in the cold damp soil. I would just check on them and if you see them start to get mushy, I would pull them up and start them in conatiners. I am in zone 5 and I start mine indoors in April and then plant out when I plant out my tomatoes in Mid May. They like warm soil. The ones I planted direct in May, didnt bloom till October!
PS a Fridge in Alaska becuase it is too warm! I almost fell over laughing. I understand how you feel with the crazy weather, but that was too funny! I have an extra one in my garage if you ever make the million mile trip down :)
Glad I could provide some laughter for the day!
Honestly, there's one way, and one way only, to answer this question: get a thermometer and check the temp. of the soil! But assuming that Craftygeek waited until the soil was workable, then it's probably not too damp and cold for the dahlia tubers. They might not start right away, but they will stay dormant (a better condition than what mine are in right now!)until the soil heats up. If they're planted in one bed, one can always put black plastic over them...not only would it help the soil heat up faster but would also stop rain from making the soil too soggy.
Also, frost will only be a problem once the plants begin growing and the little creatures show their bodies above ground! In that case, plastic, sheets, milk jugs...whatever to the rescue!
thanks for all the advice! I've been going back and forth between digging them up and leaving them to see what happens (and chalk it up to gaining some experience). the soil is definitely workable, but i don't have a thermometer to actually check the temp, so i'm going to have to pick one up. thankfully i haven't planted all my tubers, just about half of them. I have actually already covered one bed with a black trash bag cause we've had some rain already and I knew i wouldn't have time to dig them up until at least tomorrow (although now, there's more rain in the forcast, so we'll see).
but the thing that's really making me lean towards digging them up and starting them in pots is keriann's comment that the ones she planted directly in may didn't show until october! i would like to enjoy the flowers a little longer than a month. i know they probably wouldn't take quite so long here to show since it's a little warmer, but i was hoping to see them at least in july.
any continued insight is welcome! with the forecast being what it is, i may not have time to dig them up until this weekend so i have until then to fully make up my mind. and i'll keep you up to date on what happens!
I would caution you with the black plastic.
When the sun comes out it will cook your tubers under it and raise the humidity. = rot
If you have some still to plant I would leave the ones in the ground and just check on them. If they get mushy, pull them out, if not leave them and then plant your remaining tubers when the soil gets warmer and dryer. They really hate to sit in cold wet soil and it takes them a long time to take off. I plant mine in chilly/warm, moist soil but they already have about 6-18" of growth on them, so they need the water.
ok, i'm definitely pulling them up and potting them! i just read on the american dahlia society website (http://www.dahlia.org/index.php?page=growing-dahlias-in-pots) that a soilless mix is recommended. how necessary is this? can i use a regular potting soil?
also, i'm wondering about lights...i don't know if i'll be able to provide close artificial lighting like the article recommends. the best I could probably do is place them right next to an east facing window. will this be sufficient?
thanks again for all your input!
I use a plain old MG potting mix. My gardnen soil has too much clay in it and i am not a fan of bringing garden dirt (and the bugs) inside. You can also get other brands, and it will set you back about $20 bucks, well worth it in my opinion.
I they will do okay in a window, but much better under a shop light. I pinch mine back pretty good when I plant them, so if they get leggy by a window it is not the end of the world. Just make sure you harden them off before you put them outside. Hardening off is a process of slowing getting them used to the sun and wind outdoors.
I hope that helps!

The London-based artists Mat Collishaw, of YBA fame, and Polly Morgan, have teamed up with artist Sarah Lucas's Situations space at Sadie Coles gallery in London to organise a two-part auction in aid of Gigi Giannuzzi, the founder of Trolley Books, Trolley Gallery and TJ Boulting. Giannuzzi, 48, was recently diagnosed with cancer and is seeking alternative treatments in a private clinic near Munich.
The live auction, titled "Situation Gigi" and scheduled for 20 September at 7pm, will be hosted by Oliver Barker from Sotheby's, while a silent auction will continue online until 30 September. Many artists have rushed to donate work to help the charismatic Gigi. The Chapman brothers will make a portrait for the highest bidder, while artists such as Damien Hirst, Jannis Kounellis, Tracey Emin and Patti Smith have all donated works to raise funds for his treatment. Nan Goldin has donated a photograph of Giannuzzi, Gigi in the blue grotto with light, Capri, 1997, which is estimated between £11,184 and £12,427 and was included in the first book that Giannuzzi published independently in 1998—Nan Goldin's Ten Years After: Naples 1986-96.Giannuzzi founded the independent publishing house Trolley Books in 2001. It quickly developed a reputation for adventurous and eccentric projects and books, covering topics as varied as photojournalism, architecture and contemporary art. He has also collaborated with a number of Magnum photographers including Chien-Chi Chang, Paolo Pellegrin and the late Philip Jones Griffiths, all of whom have also donated works (the latter via his daughters). He previously worked from 1994 to 1997 for the art book publishers Umberto Allemandi, Turin, the parent publishing company of The Art Newspaper. Polly Morgan, who first met Giannuzzi in New York, said that teaming up with Collishaw to help the publisher was the obvious thing to do when they heard of his illness. "The sheer amount of artists who were calling up the gallery and offering their own works is a testament to how popular Gigi is. He's been a constant in many of our lives."His business partner Hannah Watson, who has been working with Giannuzzi since 2005, told us: "I am of course biased, but Gigi is totally unique—no one else would be so crazy as to dedicate themselves to the brave yet beautiful books that he makes. He is one of the artists."The 47 lots up for sale can be viewed online, and Morgan, Collishaw and many other artists will be present at the auction, serving drinks and spotting bids. Situation Gigi: an Auction by Artists in Aid of Gigi Giannuzzi, Thursday, 20 September, 7pm, Sarah Lucas/Sadie Coles, 4 New Burlington Place, London W1S 2HS

Thoughts and blessings to our dearest departed Gigi Giannuzzi, truly a legend in his own lifetime, a one off unique maverick whose energy, creativity and lovely madness were a constant inspiration for all fortunate enough to come into his orbit. Rest in peace compadre. Only the good die young xxxxx
there was only one catch and that was catch 22, which specified that a concern for one's own safety in the face of dangers that were real and immediate was the process of rational mind. orr was crazy and could be grounded.all he had to do was ask, and as soon as he did, he would have to fly more missions. orr would be crazy to fly more missions and sane if he didn't, but if he was sane he had to fly them. if he flew them he was crazy and didn't have to, but if he didn't want to he was and had to. gigi was moved very deeply by the absolute simplicity of the clause of catch 22, and let out a respectful whistle. let' hope a speedy recovery is made a.s.a.p. no author is a man of genius to his publisher.
Good &worthy cause
At sometime in your life it clicks that you can do something for people that have been mistreated and forgotten virtually by the rest of humanity it just clicked alot earlier with gigi.a little girl in a market begged me to buy her small bottles of penuts and said you dont have to buy them just tell me you will come tommorow to buy them! And thats what his books give people its the hope that tommorow will be better in a beautiful 2012 renaissance way ,so dont just look at the art given by friends consider what he has achived in his books that we need another life and charecter to do

His children
I need advice and this seems to be the only intelligent forum I have stumbled upon.
I am not a step parent nor do I have any of my own but my boyfriend does have children.
To his older daughter, he is a wonderful father. He has her every weekend and cherishes the time he spends with her. He had to go through a lot to get the limited amount of custody he has and would love to be able to have more time with her but it probably won't happen. I think shes pretty cool too and his loving relationship with her was one of the first things I found attractive in him.
He hasn't seen his younger daughter in over a year. He hasn't made any effort to see or support her that I have ever seen. He says its because this child's mother makes it impossible for him; i.e. will only allow sporadic supervised visits at that, won't let him take her even when he was more involved, everything has to be on her terms.
We are starting to get serious but everytime we start talking about the future of our relationship, I think about his younger daughter.
Is it unreasonable that I can't imagine being in a long term commited relationship with a man that doesn't take care of his child?
Are his reasons for not being involved valid considering he just recently went through an expensive and exhausting custody battle for his older daughter?
Is he really doing whats best for this little girl?
Am I defined by his parenting decisions?
We have absolutely zero other issues in our relationship. He is so sweet, funny, caring and supportive to me in every way. I just don't know what to do. I don't plan on having any children so that is not part of the equation. Should I walk away from a real catch? Should I "force" him to form a relationship with his youngest daughter? Should I let it go and support him however he decides to handle the situation?
Thank you for any advice you can offer me.
Family law tends to side with us Mom's....I have seen cases in my line of work where the mom's limit the father's access and get away with it. Often it is justified, just as often not.
Is the ex a controlling personality? Have you seen cause for concern? You can't force him to have a relationship with his daughter, but it is alarming.

I'll be there...
Of course I am there. Without SWMBO this time though.
On the day after. April 29th. In the late morning while you are hung over and debating whether to pee again or sleep it off, know that I will be running my first marathon from Big Sir to Carmel, CA.www.BSIM.org
Party like you weren't me.
Wish Kaiser could make it. I remember drinking dopple-pepsi when I first met you guys (minus Boston, he was too stuck-up back then). That Dopple-pepsi was a freaking awesome beer. And then many more great ones right after that.
I'll be there to get way too drunk and embarrass myself once again. By the way, that link is to last year's festival.

Splinter Cell: Conviction's action-oriented gameplay left hardcore fans questioning the new direction that Ubisoft was choosing for Sam Fisher. However, there were also gamers, including newcomers to the franchise, who greatly enjoyed what Conviction had to offer. Ubisoft Toronto took this information and decided to create a new Splinter Cell title that would not only cater to gamers of both play styles, but also design in-depth environments that would ultimately give each player the ability to choose how to experience the game. Splinter Cell: Blacklist was the result, and the choices you make will be your most powerful tool.
As is common among many Tom Clancy novels, the game's plot features political intrigue, intense militaristic events, a compelling villain, and a threat to society. Splinter Cell: Blacklist focuses on a terrorist group called The Engineers, who have compiled a list of strategic locations that will be targeted every seven days unless their demands of removing American soldiers from foreign nations are met. This Blacklist, as it is to be named, poses an immense threat to the American nation, resulting in the departure of Sam Fisher and Fourth Echelon to thwart their plans. Being granted the Fifth Freedom by the President, Sam would defend the laws by breaking them, save lives by taking them, and ensure America's safety by taking the fight to The Engineers.
The visual presentation is superb as you cross the globe following the crumbs that The Engineers have laid out. Detailed environments stand out whether you are concealed amidst the shadows of enclosed corridors or scaling buildings during a torrential thunderstorm. Ubisoft Toronto excelled at implementing various smaller gameplay aspects that, upon the level's completion, bring about a captivating experience, solely pertaining to environmental design. If only for a moment, you can enjoy the departure from static environments as you maneuver through the crowded markets of Benghazi or progress under the night's sky en route to uncover an Engineer cell within an abandoned mill. Boats travel through the harbour, planes navigate the stormy skies, and lightning and moonlight add an additional element of suspense to the atmosphere that is present. For a franchise that focuses on stealth gameplay, lighting plays an integral role, and Ubisoft Toronto perfects the differentiation of lighting within each environment to maximize the variation of play styles offered. The ability to manipulate lighting with weapons and gadgets also aids in providing safe passage through areas to flank enemy positions. This cinematic display is constant throughout, held intact by several aspects that also incorporate a well-defined soundtrack to enhance the tense and overly chaotic moments that are bound to occur. You will also notice that Michael Ironside is no longer present, having been replaced by Eric Johnson to voice Sam Fisher. It will take a short period to adapt, but Eric does an excellent job at continuing the legacy of Sam.
Splinter Cell: Blacklist offers a vast amount of content that ultimately succeeds in defining you as a gamer. The three play styles to choose from are Ghost (non-lethal stealth), Panther (lethal stealth), and Assault. These options present a stylistic approach to combat within Blacklist, giving you control throughout every mission. Your arsenal of weaponry will also determine your desired play style, which also presents numerous variations of dispatching enemies that interfere with objectives. The realization of how fluid the controls are will occur immediately as you move from corner to corner, stalking each enemy that presents an obstacle. Concealing Sam among the shadows or behind obstacles waiting for an enemy to pass by always offers a sense of excitement. Exploring other play styles and blending them together will lead to a firmer appreciation of the variety that is available.
Even though there are three play styles, Splinter Cell will always remain a stealth experience, which is also indirectly hinted at throughout its entirety. The result of being spotted will rarely fair in your favour on the harder difficulties, leaving out any thought of open combat. Bypassing enemies will allot the highest score, but it is hard to resist leaving them unharmed. Certain areas will also allude to how to properly approach the situation, believing you are making a choice, while the choice has actually been made for you.
Each mission contains numerous routes for you to take as you complete an objective, giving you variety and increasing replayability. Your initial thought process will force you to take the best possible approach, but each additional playthrough will warrant exploration, which will also reward you. The level design is structured in such a way to utilize the arsenal of weapons that are available. For example, vantage points can be sought out with a sniper rifle to kill from a distance for those who wish to refrain from up-close encounters.
The Mark and Execute feature from Conviction returns to provide an easier method of reducing enemy numbers. Its inclusion does lower the difficulty of congested areas, but carrying out an execution in motion when surrounded does provide some fantastic visuals. It is also important to note the realistic improvements as you are unable to fire through obstructions and must be within an appropriate distance. There is also the inclusion of short-lived sequences, such as providing sniper cover for Sam, that are more of an annoyance than a welcoming change of pace as it is supposed to provide.
One complaint with Blacklist pertains to how the choices you make do nothing to alter the narrative in any way. For example, you are confronted with a few individuals throughout the story where you are given the option to kill or save their lives. Your choice will not make a difference. These scenes are most likely the leftovers from the interrogation torture sequences that were taken out due to their extremely violent tone. Choices that will impact the overall plot would be a welcoming addition in any future Splinter Cell release.
Every environment, coupled with a diverse range of options and gadgets, creates an enjoyable experience each time you are deployed to the field. The initial list of weaponry, attire, and gadgets available are basic, but countless options will quickly become unlocked after the completion of missions. An economy system is the driving factor behind the extensive amount of customizable features that are found within Blacklist. This amount of customization is normally reserved for online play, but Ubisoft Toronto wished to expand the possibilities of combat not only through the various play styles, but also by incorporating a deadly arsenal of unlockables within the single-player campaign.
The initial look at the cost of upgrades and unlocks may seem daunting, but all you need is to incorporate some cooperative missions into the mix and the payouts will be substantial. There is a plentiful number of gadgets to utilize during combat, which players may over-rely on since you are able to replenish all items and ammunition at caches during missions. There are also many useful combinations to experiment with: shooting a heavy's helmet off as you deploy sleeping gas and luring enemies to pools of water with noisemakers and then electrocuting them as you strike it with a sticky shocker bolt. Using the tri-rotor as reconnaissance to identify nearby targets may also come in handy. Successful results will be highly dependent upon timing and the resourcefulness of gadgets and their placement.
The implementation of the airbase titled "Paladin" creates an environment where the entire game can be accessed. You are able to interact with your team to unlock and upgrade your loadouts, upgrade the plane, check your current progress, and deploy for missions using the S.M.I. (Strategic Mission Interface). The overall immersive experience is attributed to the replacement of the generic menu system with an automatic entry to Fourth Echelon's mobile headquarters.
For a franchise that focuses on stealth gameplay, lighting plays an integral role, and Ubisoft Toronto perfects the differentiation of lighting within each environment to maximize the variation of play styles offered.
Anyone seeking a more difficult challenge will want to put their skills to the test in the perfectionist difficulty. Resupply caches, the Mark and Execute ability, and sonar goggles are all removed, making it a truly worthwhile stealth experience. Perfectionist requires patience as your pacing will be reduced due to a more precise strategy, but it also gives you a more in-depth look at the smaller aspects of gameplay, such as listening to enemy conversations and uncovering hidden paths. Ammunition expenditure will frequently have to be considered before each engagement if you want to be successful in mastering the play styles for each mission.
Enemy artificial intelligence has also improved from previous installments, illustrating a more cautious and yet deadly presence during missions. Alarming enemies with unhidden bodies or environment manipulation will warrant searches to determine the cause of the disturbance, which can be welcoming to easily dispatch isolated soldiers. However, they will often illustrate their tactical training by searching in pairs, making your task more difficult. They also lean over ledges and possess flashlights in darker environments to ensure they are conducting an efficient search. Sam's distractions will also lure enemies in close to reduce their numbers. These terrorists also show their mistrust to one another as their signaling of hearing something is met with hesitation, "…it's probably nothing," and yet their comrade walks to their death. Enemy movement and their reactions can be predicable to a certain degree, and so studying their position and utilizing shadows to flank will normally result in success.
The inclusion of heavily armoured infantry poses a much greater threat than the standard terrorist soldiers encountered throughout missions. Confrontations with these units head-on will result in a dispersal of ammunition. Tactical planning to flank their position or shooting the helmet to expose their weakness will be the easiest means of subduing the threat. Be wary of an extremely dangerous four-legged enemy that can sniff out your position and signal reinforcements. Traversing environments to gain a vantage point over a dog will at times prove difficult, but will save you from numerous soldiers storming towards your position upon being detected. That being said, aerial takedowns and kicking dogs still felt a bit out of place.
The inclusion of cooperative missions not only expands the gameplay featured within Blacklist, but it also operates as a means of getting Sam to familiarize himself with the other members of Fourth Echelon. Grim's missions are stealth driven, Charlie wants you to dive into Assault, Briggs expects cooperative teamplay, and the useful captive Kobin issues tasks where Panther will be best suited. Playing solo is definitely enjoyable, but experiencing these missions with a friend or a stranger will provide some exhilarating sequences. These missions add an impressive amount of content to an already in depth experience.
Blacklist also brought to life the return of Spies vs. Mercs, a game mode that had been sorely missed since its last inclusion in Splinter Cell: Double Agent. The agility of the spies is set against the slow and heavily armoured mercenaries who have the upper hand in weaponry. The classic mode includes teams of two, where the mercenaries must defend terminals from being hacked by spies. The Blacklist mode increases the teams to four, adding much more chaotic gameplay and a refined sense of strategy as you are able to optimize loadouts. Teamwork will no doubt produce results. Roles are reversed in Extraction where the spies must defend terminals and it is an extremely refreshing mode. Uplink Control includes capturing objective points while Team Deathmatch includes your typical fire fights. Both modes allow spies and mercs to be played on a single team, but it is far superior on the former mode.
The goal from the beginning was clear for Ubisoft Toronto: create the best Splinter Cell title in the franchise to date, which is exactly what they did. The inclusion of several play styles gives the players the ability to make decisions on how they can progress throughout the game and the diverse experience contains a vast amount of content that will keep gamers occupied for countless hours. Just like Sam, Ubisoft Toronto has arisen from the shadows and we look forward to what their future has to offer.
+ Endless amount of gameplay
+ Variety of play styles

Apple's Most Personal Device - This Year
Apple has finally lifted the curtain on the Apple Watch and, unsurprisingly, it looks good. Maybe you're crunching the numbers to determine if you can afford the $13,000, 38mm 18-carat rose gold case edition or the $449.00 sport model. No matter what you pick you'll need an Apple iPhone 5 or later running the latest version of iOS, so don't forget to figure that into the cost as well. Before taking out a line of credit to buy the latest and greatest from Apple I'd recommend holding off and avoiding the April 24th release date altogether.

Why We Need the Worst Game Ever
Maybe it wouldn't have been as bad if the sales person hadn't said, "this is our most popular seller; I can barely keep it on the shelves." My mother and I were in the only video game store in the city. It was in the basement of a professional building and smelled like stale cigarette smoke and BO. For passing grade five I was rewarded with a video game. This wasn't a decision to be made lightly; this would be one of the two games I'd get all year. I can no longer remember the game I originally wanted but I do remember the store didn't have it. Instead, the sales person was recommending something I'd never heard of, a little game called "Mystery Quest."

Test Mode Windows 7 Build 7601
Hello everyone!
I have a question about my work pc, on the desktop in the corner on the right hand bottom there is the following text on the screen:
Test Mode Windows 7 Build 7601
I have never worried about it because nobody else seems to care :-) but now I'm curious. Yesterday this computer guy came into our office to fix my colleagues computer (she had a trojan virus) and when he saw the above named text on our computer screens he commented that was a bad thing. I asked him what he meant by that but all he said was that it looks like we're running something really old and that it allows bad things to run on our computers. Then he told me not to worry about it and took off! I didn't chase him down the hallway because I figured it is better coming here for clarification. So does anyone know what this means?
My pc is pretty new and I run Windows 7 Professional. I have the disk here with the licence code and I was there when the computer guy (different guy) installed it so that all seemed legitimate.
Maybe this tutorial will help...

omg! must must see!
Stop by frequently to lurk, and just heard on another forum for the first time about the H oliday forum, which is found under Crafts and Hobbies. The only post I looked at is entitled "You HAVE to see this". (you can guess now that I don't know how to link) Anyway the link there is" Hoarding: buried in dishes & decor". And I'm still stunned. A woman provides a photographic tour of all her stuff stored meticulously, but oh my lord it has to be seen. Equally disturbing to the vast, ginourmous I-hope-the-joists-are-reinforced massive quantity of stuff, are the responses envying her organizational system - which is admittedly impressive to say the least - as a method to emulate to organize more of their own stuff. My own silent scream is still ringing in my ears; "NOOOOOOOOOOO NOT more stuff; get RID of it!!"
I'm wondering what your response is? I'll be back later to check in, but right now I'm going to get a bag and hunt for donations. Make that several bags...
Hahaha, Peegee.
i saw that post a few days ago and thought no way do I want that much stuff! Way too much work!!
I often go to that forum for idea - usually just Christmas, Easter, and Fall.
I did think to myself the other day that if I really want to get my home simplified, then that is not the right forum for me to hang around. I love seasonal decorating but it results in an accumulation of "stuff".
I just went through my fall. Thanksgiving, and Halloween boxes the other day and got rid of a lot of things. I guess the best thing to do is just allow myself to have what will fit in that box - anymore than that - then it's time to purge.
That was crazy! No one needs all that - she must not even be able to use it all - who could?!?
I just finished a purge and organization project. A car load of things was taken away to be donated. Some of it Christmas things from years ago.
It feels so good to be rid of the stuff. It was weighing me down - more than I knew.
Anyway, those images have inspired me to pick another room and purge some more. I'm starting to appreciate how we can be so much happier with less.
This stuff clutters more than our spaces. It clutters our lives, our minds ... oh my ... I'm still reeling from those photos :)
Other than "organized", there's not much that can be said about that! Just skimmed any text; what was this woman - some kind of party planner with an endless supply of party rental wares? Or just a dishware collector?
On first scan my thought was to let someone take most of it out for target practice or drive the U-haul up to the Godwill donation drop off dock. Can you imagine leaving all that behind for heirs or estate executors to deal with?
I do look at the Holiday Forum with some amusement. I have enough nice things with which to set a lovely table when I need to, but to change out the "tablescape" (and photograph it from every conceiveable angle) ten or twenty times a month is a bit too much for me. I obsess over the few tag end stacks of old sets of dishes that have fallen my way through my Mom or deceased relatives, etc. Perfectly good for everyday; and until the microwave crazes them badly or they break, I'll set a mismatched daily use table. But someone else's hobby or passion is... well, someone else's hobby or passion. I'm not in the position to judge if it borders on the pathological. (Although it seems like it might in this case though, doesn't it?) LOL!
"Many people have collections and collect for the joy of the acquisition, whether it is dolls, postage stamps, matchbooks, Beanie Babies, or in this case, dishes."
...and flatware
...and napkins
...and napkin rings
...and glassware
.... etc!
I've been reading self-help, cleaning and organizing blogs and magazines for years. One thought that stood out "You can't organize clutter." The only way to deal with clutter is put things away where they belong and toss as much as possible on a regular basis.

PhiConnect provides an online return service so that buyers and sellers can manage better return processes with less Paypal disputes, phone calls, e-mails and negative feedbacks. Once you have signed up for this 'Online Return Service', you will receive your own personal link, http://return.phiconnect.com/id/your-eBay-id. You can attach this link to your e-mail template or listing template. Now, buyers will know where to start for their return/repair request. There is a growing number of Paypal disputes and eBay negative feedbacks. This is because buyers don't know how to request for returns and sellers are not there when buyers need their help for a return.

Review:The application is bad due to the fact that you have problems from the begin you start and plus no one you can call but you have to email. I'm not now because I've cancelled the free trail and they are still charging me until this day so I'm really mad and they seem like it was ebay fault. While ebay say it's still pending contact philconnect to remove it and cancel.
It is perfect for keeping up with returns!

That was funny. But with that said, the anal side of me always goes through the "procedure".
