Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Entertainment Scene
Queen of the nip-slip
NICKI Minaj suffered a major wardrobe malfunction during her appearance on BET's 106 & Park recently. The American Idol judge showed off more than she had planned in her barely-there bralet top -- and it was all caught on live television.
Sure, Minaj isn't one for following trends -- she makes 'em (or at least thinks she does) so could she be trying to make this a new signature look? Maybe. The rapper has been nip-slip prone in the past and has even turned to nipple pasties to help avoid such mishaps, according to the Mirror UK.
Minaj may be the queen of the nip-slips, but she's among many other pop princesses that have shared in the same fashion faux pas, including Miley Cyrus, Courteney Cox, Paris Hilton, Tara Reid, Pamela Anderson, Lindsay Lohan, Anna Lynne McCord, Lady Gaga, Jennifer Lopez, Rihanna -- wow, we could go on all day!
Balls to the wall
JESSICA Biel is currently promoting her role in Hitchcock, and in a recent appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman, she was supposed to be talking up the Anthony Hopkins-led film. But the conversation had less to do with Hitchcock, and more to do with balls.
Sweaty, "butt naked," old-man balls. Balls that apparently made a Biel sandwich -- to the actress' discomfort -- during a trip to a spa in the Alps.
We'll let her explain. (And, for the record, Biel says she was dressed in "my bikini and my robe and my towel and my slippers" when the incident occurred.)
"These guys come in, one's sitting over here, one's sitting over here," Biel told Letterman.
"They drop their towels and they're completely naked. Butt naked. Older, husky men."
"They were naked and I'm in the middle of them!" she continued, flustered. "I look over and I realize, yes, it is confirmed, there are balls on wood. Not just naked, but balls on wood, Dave. That's not OK!"
Ahh, Paris
LIL Wayne and Paris Hilton: theirs is a beautiful BFF-ship. In 2011, for instance, Interview magazine got these two together for one of their usual transcribed celebrity Q&As. The duo bonded: turns out they both dig Miami, they've both served time, they both love Lil Wayne records. And it was during that historical meeting of the bank accounts that the origins of this article were born.
Said Wayne: "I was gonna ask you, how are you gonna release an album and don't get me on it?"
Replied Hilton: "Well, if you would be on the album, then I would be honoured."
And today, the world has the result of that proposal: a collaboration titled Last Night, which is -- or was -- meant to be Hilton's new pop single, since Idolator reports the project has been cancelled. (Something to do with Hilton breaking up with the track's producer, Afrojack, according to reports, and another version of the tune turned up on Pitbull's new record, albeit featuring another singer, Havana Brown.)
Remember One Night in Paris? Hilton and Weezy want you to remember One Night in Paris. Because if you didn't already pick up on the title, Lil Wayne name-drops Hilton's star-making sex tape later on in the track.
"Excuse my french, but f the cameras," Weezy raps on his guest verse, "I wanna spend a night in Paris."
Between this and Kanye West's Kim Kardashian: Superstar verse on Clique, it's the birth of a new genre.
The Rihanna rebellion
WHEN Rihanna packed up her Boeing 777 for her 777 tour, she reportedly gave the 150 reporters on board a few things: she gave them some socks with her face on them, and a Moleskine, and some perfume and a conflict-free diamond Rolling Stone describes as being as big as a Q-Tip.
Rihanna -- or at least Team Rihanna -- also gave them a promise: the pop star would stage a few press conferences.
This, according to multiple reports, has not happened.
Rihanna hasn't been seen or heard by 777's coach class since pouring everyone champagne on Day 1 of the trek. Wrote Rolling Stone's Jeff Rosenthal, who's on board: "We haven't seen Rihanna offstage since the first day, unless you count her popping up at baggage claim for a few moments on the morning of the second."
This means mutiny.
Or at least journalists Tweeting about mutiny.
Chants of "Just one quote!" "Occupy 777!" and "Save our jobs!" have reportedly erupted, jokingly (?) instigated by pop blog Idolator in response to their host's disappearance. (Rihanna, reportedly nestled away in her private quarters, was unmoved by the mini-uprising -- though Complex reports her Def Jam reps came out of first class to tell the passengers to simmer down. They then sent out some complementary bottles of Jay-Z's D'Usse Cognac to lubricate the situation.)
Lindsay and Liz like sisters
LINDSAY Lohan's dad discovered he has a 17-year-old daughter while appearing on a TV talk show last week. And it turns out LiLo herself got the news the same way.
Good Morning America host Amy Robach accidentally dropped the truth-bomb on Linds while asking about the long-secret half sister last week.
"I didn't even hear that, so thanks for the news," Lohan said. "I don't pay attention to any of it. I don't really want to get into that because I want to stay on the positive side of things."
Yes, positive. Because apart from that unfortunate dip into Lohan's troubled, and well-reported, personal life, her appearance on GMA was all about giving Lohan the opportunity to re-iterate what a great place she's in now. That and to understandably pitch her new TV movie, Liz & Dick. (It airs on Lifetime Nov. 25.)
Staying "positive" has been the excuse for Lohan's pull-out from another recent TV engagement. Her rep cancelled a Q&A with 20/20's Barbara Walters earlier this month. At issue: Walters may have asked Lohan something "tough," HuffPo reports. (Acceptable questions likely being: 1) Was it awesome to play Elizabeth Taylor? and 2) Just how awesome was it?)
So yes, Lohan touched on playing the late screen legend during the GMA sitdown. She talked about how she related to the Oscar-winning beauty: "Elizabeth Taylor actually went to her mother a lot. She was really close to her mother, and I'm pretty much the same," Lohan told Robach.
Knightley terror
KEIRA Knightley turned up on Ellen DeGeneres's talk show and said that she's finding the prospect of a wedding "terrifying." She got engaged in May, you'll recall, to musician Jim Righton.
"Ever since (the engagement announcement), everyone keeps going, 'So when is it going to happen and what's the dress like?'" she said.
"We haven't planned anything and it's all quite terrifying and I sort of looked it up on the internet: 'If you're getting married, what should you do?' I really don't have a clue."
She didn't comment on the report that Karl Lagefeld has offered to design a dress for her.
No more sex in the pool!
IN Glow mag, Vanessa Hudgens recounted the shooting of her three-person swimming-pool sex scene, with James Franco and starlet Ashley Benson, for the soon-to-be-released movie Spring Breakers:
"It was very nerve-racking for me," she said. "I told my agent that I never want to do it ever again."
In September Franco told E! News that he hadn't minded at all.
The press release says the movie is "a drug and sex-fuelled film about four coeds who find themselves mixed up with a drug dealer."
That's O fpr oops
MICROSOFT is pulling out all the stops to promote its new Surface tablet as a worthy alternative to the iPad. The company is rumored to have dropped $400 million on its marketing campaign for the device. But here's one stop it's probably wishing it hadn't pulled out: getting Oprah Winfrey to tout the device on her Twitter account.
"Gotta say love that SURFACE! Have bought 12 already for Christmas gifts." she tweeted to 14.9 million Twitter followers last Sunday.
There's just one problem. Some Twitter clients display additional metadata, like what kind of device the tweeter is using. And as Zagg, The Next Web, and others noticed, Oprah -- or whoever was tweeting on Oprah's behalf -- was tweeting from an iPad.

Fiberglass pool finish question.
kkgoodieAugust 1, 2011
Our fiberglass pool is now 7 years old. The sides under water are starting to feel rough, not smooth & silky like when it was new. Is there anything I can use (other than draining and coating it)to bring the glossy feel back or to at least prevent it from getting worse. I did have some stains this year for the first time when we opened it but I got them out with ascorbic acid. Also what should our pool guy be using when closing each season. We are his only fiberglass pool so I want to make sure he is using the right chemicals. Any help would be appreciated.
I balance F/G pools like a liner pool.
Gel coats wear. Different makers use different amounts, suppliers, etc... Some last 10, some last 25, some last even longer.

Yes Dolly that is the pattern I want to make but have never done symbol crochet and am not familiar with this stitch pattern. It says in the instructions that it is available in "Harmony Guide Vol. 6" but really wanted to start the pattern now and it takes a while to get the book. Remember folks, I'm not looking for a copy of the pattern just how to do a stitch. TIA Jill

Question about homemade metal bender?
algreenJanuary 26, 2005
I was recently searching through the web for articles on homemade metal benders, I found a post that was started sometime in september on this forum about a homemade bender that a few of the members had built, the posting was entitled My home made metal bender, and it was posted by kbeitz. The bender looks very good, but I have a few questions. My first question would be, is the bender able to bend structural tubing without kinking or creasing the metal? My second question is, is their any specific measurements that you can give me so that I can build the bender? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A cleaner for combs which comprises a generally circular planar head having radially extending bristle tufts and hard rubber elongated tines disposed about different 180° circumferential portions. The head has a pair of spaced apart recesses which lockably receive a pair of spherical knobs upstanding from an elongated handle for securing the head to he handle in either of two opposite angular orientations to selectively expose either the bristle tufts or the elongated members for use.
1. A comb cleaning implement comprising: a generally circular planar member having bristle tufts extending radially from a plurality of points along one half of the circumference of said member and a plurality of tines extending radially from a plurality of points along the other half of the circumference of said member, an elongated handle extending radially of said member and mutally engageable fastener means carried by said member and said handle for securing said member to said handle selectively in either of two opposite angular orientations.
2. The implement of claim 1 wherein said mutually engageable fastener means comprises a pair of spaced apart fastener means formed on said planar member, a first of said fastener means on said member located closer to said bristle tufts than the second fastener means on said member and the second fastener means located closer to said tines than the first fastener means, and wherein said handle has a pair of fastener means longitudinally spaced along said handle and engageable with the fastener means on said member.
The invention relates to cleaning brushes and particularly to cleaning brushes for combs. The prior art includes apparatus such as that shown in Dreher, U.S. Pat. No. 2,139,940 issued Dec. 13, 1938. Such apparatus included an elongated brush having generally parallel bristles disposed along a straight member. Such apparatus has not been widely accepted and it is believed that it is desirable to provide apparatus which may be selectively urged into relationship with the teeth of a comb along different portions of the brush. Such apparatus insures that a clean section of bristle is always available.
Accordingly, it is a primary object of the invention to provide a brush for cleaning a comb which has a plurality of discrete bristle tuft and tine sections which may be selectively individually urged against the teeth of the comb.
Still another object of the invention is to provide apparatus which is simple to use and inexpensive to manufacture.
It has now been found that these and other objects of the invention may be satisfied by comb cleaning apparatus which includes a generally circular planar member having disposed at a plurality of points along the circumference thereof a plurality of bristles. Tine members may be disposed at other circumferencial points about the member.
Ordinarily the apparatus will include an elongated handle which is fixed to the generally circular member. The means for attachment of the handle to the generally circular member may include a pair of generally spherical members for cooperation with a pair of generally spherical recesses. The material used in the construction of the handle and the generally circular member may be hard rubber.
The invention will be better understood by reference to the drawing in which
FIG. 1 is a side elevational view of the apparatus in accordance with the invention;
FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken through the line 2-2 of FIG. 1; and
FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing a broken away portion of the apparatus shown in FIG. 1 and a comb being used therewith.
Referring now to FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 there is shown the cleaner 10 in accordance with the invention. The cleaner 10 includes a generally circular member 12 which is also generally planar and which about the circumferencial surface thereof has a plurality of discrete points, a plurality of bristles 14. Preferably the bristles 14 will extend only around 180° of the circumference of the generally circular member 12. Disposed around the remainder of the circumferencial portion of the generally circular member 12 will be a plurality of hard rubber elongated members or tines 16 carried at circumferentially spaced positions.
The generally circular member 12 normally will be provided with generally spherical recesses 18 for accommodation with generally spherical knobs 20 carried on a handle 22. The cooperating recesses and knobs 18, 20 permit the selective positioning of a given circumferencial portion of the generally circular member 12 with a comb which is to be cleaned. The handle normally will be manufactured of plastic and the generally circular member 12 may be made of hard plastic or hard rubber. The resiliency of the materials permit the selective removal and connection of the generally circular member 12 to the handle 22 in either of two discrete positions. In operation the hard rubber tips 16 may be used for cleaning an associated comb 24 and thereafter the generally circular member 12 will be indexed one hundred and eighty degrees and the bristles 14 will be urged against the associated comb 24.

I need serious help - lol
I was going to start taking down Christmas decorations today instead I redid my gold tree with new stuff I bought AFTER Christmas - husband is laughing at me and shaking his head. I was never really happy with the first go-round but I do like this one better - it still needs some serious tweaking for next year mainly the ribbon running through the tree ......
first tree with smaller flowers and picks
I took the smaller flower and picks out and replaced with larger flowers and brought the balls out to the front of the tree instead of hanging them inside the tree and added the gold reindeer that were lost on another tree
I'm still LOVIN' that mirror above! LOL!
But, yes, I like the 2nd tree, too! And that little bunny sitting in the wing chair...I made a couple of those long ago! I bet your's is old, too! Looks like you got some Christmas decor bargains for your tree! TFS! Jeanne S.
It was pretty before, but now even more so. Good job. Now will you remember how you did it when next Christmas comes???? LOL
I still have some of those bunnies too. I have a thing for bunnies and couldn't part with them. I have a boy/girl couple on a bench in the dining room, and two or three "girls" sitting on the guest room bed. Mine were from the early 90's I think.
Thanks gals :)
Jeanne - that mirror belonged to my late husbands mother - I have no idea how old it is but I know it is at the very least 65 years old since it show up in early baby pictures - still in great shape and has the original mirror backing - it weighs a TON
As for the bunny in the chair - I made them for years and sold them at a craft co-op - now that I have a grandaughter and two grandnieces living close by I need to get the pattern out again and make some more.
Luvs - early 90's is about right
as for next year I am taking pictures of everything and making notes in the description part of photobucket about changes I want to make .....
I agree you may need help, just kidding. It was all I could do working three days straight to get all the Christmas down. Where do you find the energy to keep decorating just for practice. I really like the gold tree, the reindeer look great on there. I also like the big flowers, I put cream roses tied with ribbons on my large sunroom tree, they really fill out a tree.
Lynne, I had to laugh at your redoing the tree now...and I love the changes you made! What a good idea you had, now next Christmas you'll already know how you want it to look!
I've found having photos each year really helps me the next time too. In fact, when I looked at some of my decor in 2008, I was practically cringing... tho happy to see I've improved a bit since then. (Enablers R Us influence!)
hugs, Karen
I totally understand redoing the tree with the new ornaments! I got some new ones and just placed them on my tree today, so you are definitely a kindred spirit!!
I think tree number 2 looks great and love that the gold balls and reindeer show so well on it. I realize the photos rarely do justice to the real life item, but I really think #2 looks better.
Lynn..you're too funny with the 'redo'...although I've done the same...we probably all have. I just got a few new ornaments as gifts. They were so nice, I started shifting things around on the tree to fit them in.
Your first tree looked lovely, but I like the way you rearranged things on the second tree, the gold has a more striking and Elegant look to it. I do like it better.

Making Dough Rise
Since 1985, EMILY's List has had one goal: raising money to help in electing women "who can make significant contributions to education, health care, voting rights, and economic equality." In addition, the organization also allocates considerable resources to training and cultivating women leaders. In addition to supporting the obvious choices among African-American female candidates, from California Attorney General Kamala Harris to Ohio state Sen. Nina Turner, EMILY's List has lent its invaluable helping hand to lesser-known rising stars like those you'll meet here. — Joyce Jones (@BETpolitichick)

Historical Traveler Reviews Meridian Inn St Lawrence Gap
Can you keep a secret?
Everyone who has given 4/5 stars has said it all. First trip to Barbados, but mainly thanks to the Meridian Inn, it definately won't be our last! Judging by the other reviews, despite the quiet location next to Dover, Causarina & Turtle beaches and being at the quiet end of the Gap, it won't be a secret for much longer just how great Gord, Carl & Mary-Margaret's hospitality is. It would be a huge disappointment to my daughter and I if we couldn't get a room again this time next year so don't tell too many others.
As for the chap who called Carl rude, well you've only got to read the other reviews to decide whether there is any truth in that.
Meridian Inn is the best!
Great location. Great owners. Great accomodations. Great weather. Great pets. Great fun! What more can I say...except- Go Flames Go!
Inexpensive, Convenient, and Relaxing!!
My wife and I have been going to Barbados for many years now and have stayed at a number of places in a variety of locations but this passed trip has been the best experience so far. The Meridian in is in St. Lawrence Gap which over the last couple of years has undergone a lot of changes including great new restaurants, as well as old favourites, fantastic nightlife, and arguably the best beaches on the island. The owner operated hotel includes a couple of Canadians and the friendliest Bajan on the island. (Ask Carl for his native island tour or Mary Margaret about interesting recipes for your fresh fish.) The hotel is basic but very clean, very convenient, and very inexpensive compared to most places on the island. Two thumbs up!! We will be staying there again next year.!!
Enjoyed the value
Great place! 5 star service at budget prices. Gord an owner makes it feel like your home away from home. Just ask and it'll be provided or arranged for you. All the nite-life and good eats is just paces away.
So is the beach. I did a 2 week stay but should have stayed longer.
lots of regulars come back every year. I met many of them and they all say they'll be back. Lots of guests seem to book months in advance. A high end hotel is next door but at prices that brake my bank. They use the same beach and don't look any happier. I'd rather spend my funds doing activities and dining, not on pricy accomodations. The hotel gets my recommendation.
Clean, Safe and Friendly !
Spent a couple of days in Barbados for the first time in March 04, with a friend. We can really recommend Meridian Inn, it has a great location just by the ocean, and within walking distance to restaurants and shops. The apartments are really clean, and have nice balconies, where you can enjoy a cold Banks (the local beer) ! The owners are really friendly and helpful, and give you that little extra so you feel that you want to come back again...real soon ! And we will... :0)
Meridian Inn-Barbados
I was in Barbados for a week and got back this past Monday.I stayed at the Meridian Inn in the Gap which is one of the nicest hotels i have stayed in.I didnt know what to expect when i reached the place but it exceeded all my expectations.The rooms are clean,and well maintained.The hotel is at a perfect location on the gap and a stones throw from casurina and dover beach.Mary who runs the place is so very helpful which puts you at ease when you are in a country for the first time.The hotel is very safe and you could lock your valuables in a safe in the lobby.Last but not least its very affordable.I am going back soon for sure.!
Great Experience
As a frequent traveller to the Caribbean, this was the best kept secret I have found. The establishment is small but very friendly...The locatation is outstanding, within walking distance to whatever you need. The rooms are very clean and comfortable. The best part is the price. Unbelievable value for the dollar...If your travels take you to Barbados and you want clean, comfortable and a great location I would hight recommend a visit to Meridian Inn. I will definitely be back.
Value for money & clean
I stayed here in November 2003 for a friends wedding (she was staying at Turtle Beach hotel right next door-I couldn't afford to!)I found one of the owners Mary-Margaret to be extremely helpful & friendly. The hotel was basic but very clean, with AC, TV 7 cokking facilities in the room. It was 1 mins walk to the beach, beautiful. Overall I would recommend it to anyone on a tight budget
Average Hotel - Horrible Owner
I stayed at this hotel over the Christmas Holiday season. This was my 10th trip to Barbados, but my first at this hotel. While the location was fairly convenient, especially to the beach and nightlife, the treatment that we received from one of the owners, Mr. Bayley was horrible. He was uncooperative, argumentative, and rude. Rather than treating us with respect, he told us that if we had any problems with him, we should just stay somewhere else. He also said some very rude and disrespectful things to myself and my family.
In short, if you are looking to stay in the St. Lawrence Gap area, there are quite a few other options. The rates are similar, the rooms are likely to be somewhat better, and the owners of those hotels are likely to truly value your business.
Great value, great location
I stayed at the Meridian Inn for about 5 days in September 2003. It's located at one end of St Lawrence Gap, which has great nightlife/dining. The walk from the hotel to the gap was less than a 1/2 mile - and Barbados is very safe - I'm a female traveling alone, and had no problems wandering around at night. There's a breakfast restaurant diagonally across the street from meridian inn - pretty good breakfast, as well as an internet cafe. There were about 15 rooms total at the Inn, which is great - you really get to know the other people staying there. The beach (turtle beach) was about 100 yards away, down a sandy path. It was gorgeous - great to be so close to the beach in case you need to go back to your room for something. There is no restaurant, no pool or bar, but they do sell beer in the office. The rooms all have a kitchenette - refrigerator, microwave, stove, sink, dishes, etc. The room itself was very nice - colorful walls, tile floor, queen size bed, full shower/bathtub, air conditioning, TV with cable, desk, and balcony. Meridian inn is safe, secure, clean, economical, and the staff was very friendly. I would definitely stay here again.

Clearing ivy naturally
I have a large space that I plan to put a garden in this spring. Currently it is completely covered in various breeds of ivy (including poison ivy). I would love some suggestions for effectively removing it all without using any herbicides that could potentially harm my future garden.
Thank you
gypsy_love - I think it would be sensible to start by identifying what you have there. You refer to various 'breeds' of ivy, but most plants commonly called 'ivy' are not true ivy, ie Hedera species, at all. Poison Ivy is not related at all to, for example, English Ivy. Once you know what plants you are dealing with it is easier to decide how to tackle them. The Name That Plant Forum is your friend.
I too agree that it would be best to identify what it is that you are trying to eradicate. See link below to Name That Plant Forum.
Whatever it is, I'd cut and pull as much as possible, and then if possible till the soil really well. Next spring, repeat the pulling process and tilling.

Brug shots July 7, zone 5 Canada
Here are some more shots of the brugs. Some were taken this morning, and others after work tonight.
A couple of other interesting gardenn shots:
Lots of early blooms there for you John, way to go. I am seeing more of the 'golden' in Golden Lady this season as well. She is in full bloom here too at the moment. She tolerates this heat too, unlike most of my other blooms that last only a day or 2.
I had some neighbours drop over tonight, and they were "freaking out" about Golden Lady,- like they had never seen anything so wonderful. They are used to seeing lots of brugs here, and call me the "Brug Man", but this one in the light of dusk was especially wonderful tonight. I was surprised to see the amount of "gold" in her originally, but tonight it was barely visible.
Nice scent around here, I must say, with 5 brugs in bloom tonight.

That extended amount of time it takes to get all of the materials is exactly why people have been using ToD items to get to u25 armor (because its free! Also, higher tier means better bonuses), as well as why I never recommend mining with anything less than a unob pick (terrible sc2 spawn rate, which is where all of the CoUR come from). +3 or +4 may not be top of the line, but it should be good enough to use to get something better like a +6 or even higher. 500/500 armor can still be nice for rebirths, though, because of the lower rank, but it is no longer completely necessary for getting to u25 because of how long it takes to get.

Previous high score was 866k out of the 900k for s rank, so that brings me to 122 total S ranks. I did not expect to do that well, especially since it was my first attempt of the day and I missed one of the multipliers.
SC possible high score went from 790k to 909k.

I'm just going to go out on a limb here and say that some of the problems might be solved by ignoring the trolls instead of feeding them. I see an awful lot of attention being given to the people nobody seems to like, and that attention seems to make them stick around longer. There are exceptions, of course, but can it hurt to try?

Whatever you feel like crafting. if you have nothing specific you want to craft, then there's no harm in just letting them sit there.
I personally don't see the point in using them just to use them. For example, it doesn't increase the ammount of career exp you get when crafting, so all it would do is just increase pixel costs.

A question for abortionists
I made an experiment transposing the arguments people made to protect baby killing to justify euthanasia of the brain dead. As I predicted people refused to talk about it because society didn't tell them what to think.
In this context, its more probably that people didn't talk about it because that doesn't make much sense. Euthanasia of the brain dead should be allowed because a woman has a right to have control of her own body, teenagers probably aren't ready to be parents, and because of rape?
Also, I'm a little bit confused by your OP. Your original question is directed at people who are pro-choice, but your last statement indicates that you don't want any comments from abortionists, so I'm not quite sure what your target audience is.

Humorist's Ohio Home On National Register Of Historic Places
The suburban ranch-style home in Ohio where humor writer Erma Bombeck launched her nationally syndicated column has been added to the National Register of Historic Places.
The Ohio Supreme Court has dismissed a lawyer's request for records kept by the state's privatized job-creation agency on procedural grounds.
Ohio's state auditor has scolded Gov. John Kasich's signature job-creation effort for sloppy handling of ethics and conflict-of-interest procedures in its first year, but says no business conflicts exist among its executives.
The Wednesday arguments involving the state's job creation program didn't focus on the legality of the program, but on who can sue to settle questions about JobsOhio.
JobsOhio comes before the Ohio Supreme Court Wednesday, as a group of liberal and conservative activists make their arguments against lawyers for the job creation program and Gov. John Kasich.
Newly released records show the private venture capital fund co-founded by former JobsOhio chief Mark Kvamme first approached Ohio State University before Kvamme stepped aside from his state-related job-creation role.
A newspaper investigation of Ohio's public job-creation efforts has found companies receiving state money failed to bring thousands of promised positions.
Opponents of the nonprofit job-creation entity JobsOhio believe wording in an independent audit provides new ammunition for their legal arguments.
Ohio's ethics agency has warned six of nine directors of Ohio's fledgling privatized job-creation board that their business interests raise potential conflicts of interest.
Democrat Ed FitzGerald, who's running for governor, unveiled a list of changes he'd like to see at JobsOhio if he were to take office. He says the private, non-profit job creation group should adopt these suggestions in order to be more transparent and efficient. The Cuyahoga County executive called for sunshine law requirements, public audits, [...]
Ohio Democrats are pushing for the state auditor to look into the books of the state's new semi-private job creation program before he's banned from doing so by a new state law.

Classic Thank You Card Great for Personalization
Life of Luxury Thank You Cards This card is very simple and classic, yet still elegant. I actually changed how the wording is set up on the front of it to just say "Thank You" on the bottom of the card with the picture taking up the whole front, and no wording on the side as shown in the sample. I was able to create my own wording on the inside as well, and had a lot of options for sizing, etc. to personalize the card how I wanted it. I really like that I was able to order a few different samples to see how the cards would look in person before placing my full order. Overall great Thank You card!
Wedding thank you card
Life of Luxury Thank You Cards Very easy to personalize. Shipped quickly. I was very satisfied with the result, wish the material was a little thicker but I received many compliments. I would purchase again.

Beautiful but Tiny
Life of Luxury Thank You Cards It is very easy to personalize the card and add in your own picture. The quality of the picture turned out great. The card just is extremely tiny. I'm not disappointed because they obviously let you know of the size. Just make sure you realized how small a 3x5 card is.

Need help with Succulent Soil
Hey guys, new to succulents and wanted to buy some soil.
Now Ive searched the forum and gone through some lengthy posts, its confusing. Turns out succulent mix at the stores suck. So I guess I will have to make my own.
I just need the simplest product detail/name that I can go to HD, Lowes or a hardware store and buy this stuff. If its cheaper on ebay or amazon, please let me know too.
atm Im thinking to buy normal potting soil and perlite. I see pumice is sold widely on ebay, would that be a cheaper replacement? Ill also try to get fine gravel. So mixture would be 50-40-10 respectively. Is this a good idea?
Thanks for the help.
Succulent soil is a very... difficult subject. just posting this here you will probably get 15 different answers. just go with what you feel is the best. heres what i do :
At home depot there is this large red and white stripped bag of soil that goes by the company name Kellogg. i get that and throw in a bunch of perlite. maybe 50-75% depending on if the succulent is more prone to root rot. if you have a feed and seed store somewhere around you, you can go there and ask for some chicken grit. little quarter inch pieces of rock that are excellent for drainage. usually comes in a large bag for maybe 10$ i just throw some of that in until i feel comfortable. it also makes an excellent top cover. my soil mix generally has no set ratios of anything, i got goes with what makes me comfortable with the particular succulent being planted.
pumice is always nice to have, as well as turface, but i dont have easy access to those materials so generally i dont use them. but the few succulents that i have that do have a mix with pumice and turface do look especially happy.
This post was edited by Microthrix on Sun, May 12, 13 at 18:06
hmm, ok Im thinking of my original plan then. Ill get potting soil, perlite and pebbles/gravel. For potting soil though, what ingredients should I look for? What ingredients should I avoid? Because this succulent mix I got is bad, Im very disappointed. Its all hard when its dry and forms clumps.
Peat is one of the ingredients you want to avoid, but you may not be able to-I'm not sure if many mixes use it. It's supposed to hold moisture, (I would guess plants going from being mass-produced to the stores-waiting for someone to buy-would need it) ~but once it goes bone dry, it gets very hard & difficult to re-wet (at least, that's been my experience). If you can find pumice, or dry stall (pumice type stuff) or even aquarium rocks (but it's expensive if you needs lots), that would be good to mix in. Soil mixes with humus/organic stuff that would be great for regular houseplants is not necessarily good for sux.
Also avoid sand. Seems like a natural...makes you think of the desert, right? But once wet, it doesn't drain easily.
I'm NOT an expert on this, so I'm going to shut my trap now. It's different for everyone, depending on your growing conditions, your watering habits, types of plants you keep, etc.
Well I see pumice is sold readily on ebay, maybe you can tell me if its priced good? Maybe I can replace perlite with pumice.
Ill be planting all my succulents into a 13" x 24" x 4" pot/planter.
I saw a big bag of gravel, each about an 1" in size, but I think they are too large. Also, gravel is very hard to find, besides the overpriced aquatic gravel. I know the $$$ I spent buying nutrient retaining substrate for my planted aquarium. Safe-T-Sorb is used alot in aquariums as it retains fertilizers. I was thinking maybe buy a bag of that and mix it in, since its light gravel. But then its similar to peat that it retains moisture. sigh, its not easy.
It sucks because in the end, the substrate will cost more than all my succulents.
EDIT: I see 2 gallons of pumice is $18. Is that good? I feel silly buying something that looks like gravel at the side of your local river.
Also thanks for the response guys. Any form of response is good, Im learning and trying to put everything together.

Jumping in here-just came across this 2009 post about pumice/dry stall/turface -info you might find useful (a bit to read-all info may not be current-but may find some gems).
Here is a link that might be useful: Thread on pumice etcetera
The Fresh Prince of Bel Dirt was asking about this recently.
Here is a link that might be useful: I Want to Soil Myself
Just an idea - I recently got about 50lb of aquarium gravel for free - someone was giving it away on freecycle (they were redoing their aquarium).
I usually buy chicken grit at farm supply store, it costs me $18 (CAD) for 50lb bag.
This post was edited by rina_ on Thu, May 16, 13 at 23:50
I get more confused the more I read. I read very gritty is good, no organic material, no fine material. But then most mixes I see then have some sort of fine or organic material.
Okay, so we can search for pumice or other gritty stuff... what should we use for the other stuff?
Second question, why not use pure Turface?
You can mix Miracle Grow or other potting soil with small wood chips and perlite. I do this and my succulents drain quickly and grow very well. The wood chips and perlite keep the soil open and free draining. Just make sure your containers have drainage holes.
Long time no see Jane I've Dayumm near forgot how to spell Mircle Glow myself thanks for the reminder.
If I understand you correctly you said succulents can tolerate an amended MG soil
From anyone this is a safe bet to state but tolerating a soil and growing well in a soil are very different things.
Some water retention is important because fine roots will die if totally dry. This is where turface works well, it is simultaneously porous and water retentive.
Home Depot and Lowe's will occasionally sell lava rock at the right size (small pebble size in the 1/4" range) for adding to a soil mix. It is found in the BBQ section along with mesquite and charcoal. If you find it, stock up. I wonder if it can be special ordered? Hmmm....The rock is a dark gray almost black but is lightweight, does not retain water, and can be used the same as traditional pumice.
I personally like perlite and it is easy to find. For large pots it helps keep the weight down.
Hey guys, love US. On the road I found a nice flower shop. Bought huge bag of pea gravel, red lava rock and a beautiful sempervivum for a total of 14.98. I need half of each to fill by big succulent container. Now I just need to find a good potting soil. He name recommendations? Also I'm happy people r discussing here, I'm leaving for mexico tomorrow for a week so on my nexus. When I get back I'll post pics, very excited about vacation and my new to besuccukent soil.
The lava rock is in to 3 in in size. I was thinking to hammer it in half in pieces. Don't want to make dust either. I'm so happy I have the hardest to find stuff. Also, who spends so much in soils for their plant? We must be hardcore.
I really want to buy sago palm and yucca.something that's hardy to Toronto, Ontario zone.
