Jim Dwyer (born March 4, 1957, in New York City) is an American journalist who is a reporter and columnist with The New York Times, and the author or co-author of six non-fiction books. A native New Yorker, Dwyer wrote columns for New York Newsday and the New York Daily News before joining the Times.[1] He graduated from the Loyola School (New York City), earned a bachelor's degree in general science from Fordham University in 1979 and a master's degree in journalism from Columbia University in 1980. He appeared in the 2012 documentary film Central Park Five and was portrayed on stage in Nora Ephron's Lucky Guy [2013]. He also developed a 135 kW cogeneration plant and a 50.54 kW photovoltaic solar panel system [2] for his cooperative apartment building in Manhattan.
In 1992, Dwyer was a member of a team at New York Newsday that won the Pulitzer Prize for Spot News Reporting for their coverage of the 1991 Union Square derailment,[3] and in 1995, as a columnist with New York Newsday, he received the Pulitzer Prize for Commentary.[4] Besides the Times and Newsday, he has worked at the Hudson Dispatch, the Elizabeth Daily Journal, The Record of Hackensack, and The New York Daily News. He joined the Times in May 2001 and contributed to the paper's coverage of 9/11,[5] the invasion of Iraq,[6] and how intelligence was manipulated to create the illusion that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction.[7] He has been the About New York columnist at the Times since April 2007. Dwyer is the author or co-author of six books, mentioned below.
More Awesome Than Money[edit]
His latest, More Awesome Than Money [October 2014], is a non-fiction account of four boys who set out to save the world from Facebook's monopoly by building an alternative social network called Diaspora (social network). The book follows the four New York University undergraduates as they are inspired by the law professor and historian Eben Moglen to create a better social network, through a deluge of support they receive on Kickstarter in 2010, the death of co-founder Ilya Zhitomirskiy in 2011, up until the transfer of the project in 2013 to a community of free software developers who continue to refine it.[8] Their work is placed in the context of the dynamic relationships between the open web, digital surveillance, and free society, and the continuing efforts of groups like the Mozilla Foundation to prevent domination of the web by commercial interests. "In the shadows, more and more idealists express their opposition in code -- hackers with a moral compass," Marcus Brauchli wrote in the Washington Post, calling the book a "lively account" that "finds heroism and success, betrayal and even, ultimately, tragedy in the hurtling pursuit of a cause."[9] Writing in The Daily Beast, Jake Whitney described it as "a thrilling read, astoundingly detailed and researched, alternately suspenseful and heartbreaking."[10]
False Conviction[edit]
False Conviction: Innocence, Science and Guilt [2014], is an interactive book created in collaboration with Touch Press, the leading developer of "living books," and the New York Hall of Science.[11] Using video, animations, and text, the book explores the science behind errors in the courtroom and criminal investigations and shows routine safeguards that other fields use to guard against them. The reader can play interactive games in the book that show how everyday mistakes can turn into false convictions. Conceived by Eric Siegel, the chief content officer of the Hall of Science, and Peter Neufeld, the co-founder of the Innocence Project, the book was developed by the Hall of Science, in consultation with the Innocence Project, with a grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation's program for Public Understanding of Science, Technology & Economics.[12]
102 Minutes[edit]
102 Minutes: The Untold Story of the Fight to Survive Inside the Twin Towers [2005], co-written with Kevin Flynn, an editor at The New York Times Company, was a 2005 National Book Award finalist.[13] The book chronicled the 102 minutes that the twin towers of the World Trade Center stood after the attacks of September 11, 2001 began. The sources included interviews with survivors, tapes of police and fire operations, 911 calls, and other material obtained under freedom of information requests including 20,000 pages of tape transcripts, oral histories, and other documents.
Actual Innocence and Two Seconds Under the World[edit]
Dwyer is also the co-author of Actual Innocence: Five Days to Execution and Other Dispatches from the Wrongly Convicted [2000], which examined the causes of wrongful convictions.[14] He is co-author of Two Seconds Under the World [1994], an account of the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center that explored the early signs of fundamentalist terrorism, and poor coordination by investigating agencies, including the FBI.
Subway Lives[edit]
Dwyer is the author of Subway Lives: 24 Hours in the Life of the New York Subways [1991], a work that follows the lives of six New Yorkers and is set on the day the last graffiti-covered train was in service.[15] Much of the material for the book came from his job as the subway columnist from 1986 to 1989 for New York Newsday.
Film and theater[edit]
The filmmaker Ken Burns described Dwyer as the Greek chorus of the 2012 documentary, Central Park Five, made by Burns, Sarah Burns and David McMahon, on the wrongful convictions of five teenagers in an attack on a jogger.[16] The actor Michael Gaston portrayed Dwyer in Lucky Guy, a play by Nora Ephron about Dwyer's friend Mike McAlary, the late Pulitzer Prize–winning columnist, that ran on Broadway in 2013, starring Tom Hanks as McAlary.[17] Dwyer wrote about McAlary and his conversations with Ephron for The New York Times.[18]
Distributed generation: solar panels and co-generation[edit]
Dwyer developed a 50 kW photovoltaic system and 135 kW cogeneration system that, in combination, provide most of the power for the 217-unit cooperative apartment building where he lives in Manhattan.[19]

cooking a turkey over a fire
Can someone please give me some hints about cooking a turkey and chicken over an open fire--we are doing a school project on pilgrims and wanted to have a thanksgiving feast outside--thanks for your help
I have always smoked my turkeys, whole or breast.
Made a paste for inside and out, which sealed in the juiced. A NO Fail. Then with the remaining paste, I moistened it with vinegar, and used it to baste.
Will post if interested.
Think this will be useful.

This looks good!!!

This is a school project, so you probably want to really go with historical cooking practices. Plimoth Plantation is the living history museum dedicated to the history of the Pilgrims. They have done a lot of work with historical cook books and historical cooking practices. They have a recipe from the time period for turkey. The recipe they used calls for boiling the turkey. Boiling meats was much more common at that time than it is today. They also have instructions for other fowl which include how to roast them. As far as I can tell, the recipes they have on the web are from period cook books, and don't really look like a recipe you might find in The Joy of Cooking. But they are understandable.
Here is a link that might be useful: Plimoth Plantation Dinner menu & recipies
Yes, most colonial cooking was done in a big iron pot in the fireplace. Everything went into one pot - sort of a stew, I suppose.
No pumpkin pies, cranberry sauce, ham, etc. None of these were available to the Pilgrims at the time of the first thanksgiving. But there was probably plenty of fish, indian corn, and squash.
The only surviving account of the first thanksgiving states that waterfowl were also consumed. Probably duck or goose. Wild turkeys are very difficult to hunt, but it is not impossible that turkey was eaten as well.
The timing of thanksgiving, in the fall, lands it at about the same time as the New England Indian population used to celebrate the harvest with a feast. Actual thanksgiving by the Pilgrims would have been done in the spring, and it would have been a spartan affair, with many prayers and light if any meals.
Our Thanksgiving holiday was set by Abraham Lincoln, after some later accounts of the first event were unearthed after having been presumed lost for many years.
Here is a link that might be useful: Frist thanksgiving
Thanks everyone---we will be using a copper kettle to make buffalo stew--and will try to roast a turkey and some fish--others are bringing other dishes--it has been fun studing all this--and it is true the pilgrim diet was not extensive--we are also having a log cabin building contest---and other fun things!!Thanks all
Am curious to know why less fatty birds like turkey and chicken were boiled, while fatty meats, like duck and venison were roasted. I've had boiled chicken before and it was terribly dry. Maybe I'm stupid, but it seems everything would be better just the opposite: spit roast the lighter game over the lower heat of an open fire and boil(if you must) the fatty meats.
The researchers for that menu would have boiled much of their meat because boiling was a very common method of cooking at the time. They would have wanted the general feel/porportions of boiled to roasted meat over the course of the whole dinner to be as correct as they could. However, any one particular dish, if they have found both roasting and boiling recipes from the time period, was probably chosen by personal preference.
A guy that knows little about the outdoors and historical facts stated:
"Wild turkeys are very difficult to hunt, but it is not impossible that turkey was eaten as well".
SpamMan you must not be much of an outdoors man. Wild turkeys are about the dumbest fowl alive. They will virtually walk into the oven. They can be easily shot at close range with a bow and arrow, even more easily with a shotgun. The fact is, you could, yes even you, could probably walk up to one and bludgeon it.
Your self proclaimed omniscience is a joke.
We just bought a cast iron pot by "Camp Chef" to cook our turkey this year over the fire. The pot is called the "Ultimate Turkey". It will hold a 20 lb. turkey. The pot has a cone built in the center to invert the turkey on and the juices drip out thru holes in this part. This cast iron pan will cook a 20 pound turkey in 110 minutes.
We are excited about this pot. They have a web site. Think it is called "campchef.com". They have lots of camp stoves but we are going to use it directly in the camp fire.
You must be thinking of the domesticated turkey, which indeed is about as stupid as you seem to be. However, the wild turkey is very wily and hard to spot and hunt. Since you seem to know nothing about turkey hunting yourself, I suggest you wait for turkey hunting season in your area, and then put on a brown feather head-dress and go out hiking in a hunting area. Maybe then you can sneak up on a turkey and bludgeon it, if the turkey hunters don't get you first.
Well genius, I have hunted wild turkey, have you know-it-all dipsh*t? Fact is, there was not much hunting to do when a flock of about 20 of them waddled up to the sliding glass doors of our lodge to look at themselves in the reflection.
We could have probably killed them all with a broom let alone a shotgun. It's evident you know nothing about hunting, wildlife or the outdoors. A fat, pasty middle aged fool spouting and running for cover in the self-defense mode. Understandable after your idiot comments. Go complete your education beyond the 6th grade.
You know that drill don't you, you overweight, middle aged loser. Do yourself and your family(assuming you have one) a favor and just die.You can't admit when your wrong, a major flaw.
Last time I checked, this is not the hunting forum. Nor, despite Lpsage's persistent efforts, the juvenile insult forum.
That said, perhaps we can all get back to the topic, which was legitimate question about how best to cook a turkey over a fire as the Pilgrims might have done it.
cheese louise--a simple question turned into a riot--I think I have figured out how to cook that old bird--I never asked how to kill one nor will I kill on even if it sat down beside me!!Ill just used the cleaned out ones from my friendly neighborhood store!! Thanks from all who helped
Boiled chicken need not be dry... if it is only boiled for a short time. I have a chinese cook book that has a dish called "Plunged Chicken". A whole chicken is plunged into a pot of boiling water, and then the heat is turned off. The chicken is allowed to sit in the cooling water for about an hour, and during that time it cooks through but is very tender. I tried it once, and it was tender, not dry, but kind of bland.
Try cooking the bird in front of a reflector fire. It's best if you use a rotissary, but you can turn it by hand every 15 minutes.
You need a reflector, and lots of wood. You can't really cook this way if you're cooking with coals. Reflector cooking really requires flames, and lots of them.

Are Lantana berries poisonous??
I was reading Howard Garretts book 'Plants for Texas' and he said lantana berries were "said to be poisonous". I recently bought some and they do form a berry. How do I find out if they are or aren't poisonous???? I have a small dog that will eat ANYTHING!
The latin name is Lantana horrida because it's smells like gasoline and probably tastes like it too.
"Seed is poisonous if ingested"
I suggest kenneling or crateing a dog (when it's not right there with you)that gets "eats everything" especially toxic plants and/or rocks or other inedibles. Some small dogs just need to stay in a confined dog-proof environment. PJ
Lantana's are not the only poisonous plants to worry about with a dog that eats anything or everything.
So be careful what you plant if your going to try to garden and leave dog outside alone.
We've even had people on here say their dog ate roses, now you'd think the thorns would keep them away but it didn't.
The problems I have with my dogs are running through the gardens breaking plants, then the male peeing on everything so it looks like part of the plant is dying. With my knock out roses I've been cutting them higher so he doesn't get to them but some plants just have to deal with him.
This the only reason I don't want another male dog..Poor boy I know he's only being a dog.
If he'll eat anything, definitely look up any plant you get. Artemisia is also known as wormwood; foxglove is digitalis; even things like carolina jessamine and wisteria are poisonous in parts.
What about separating part of the yard to be "his"? It doesn't necessarily have to be an ugly chicken wire dog run. You could put decorative (yet functional) fencing, or a hedge that he couldn't get through to form a "room." That way you could have your plants and not eat them too!
Thank you for your help. I did a google search and found there were several plants I had intended to buy or that I already have that are poisonous. I'm going to fence my shade garden as I found that the caladium, ferns, and philodendrun are bad. The lantana's I'm going to plant in the front yard which is off limits to the dog. I also found out that nandina's are really bad so they are off to the front yard too. I wanted a holly but the berries are bad so I'll substitute something else that is evergreen. I want a nice yard but a safe one for my dogs and small children too. Again, thanks for you help.
my dog has rather delicate tendons on his legs. He's a mix of Chow and Australian shepher. He has a chow body with the Aussie desire to cut and dart.
We noticed several years ago that "mo" would stop and eat the tips of lantana plants. Much later, I learned that they were said to be poisonous and might cause paralysis.
I also heard that animals self-medicate with plants.
We allow him to eat the plant tips to this day. He's never even thrown them up. He seems selective and only goes for the tips. I don't know what exactly he's eating, if it includes the berries or just leaves, but he seems to know what he's doing and this is the only plant he does this to.
I would not let my dogs eat a plant that I knew was poisonous, but sometimes it happens. One of my dogs would eat my spider lilies when she was younger with no ill effects. Not every animal is affected always the same way by toxic plants. A lot depends on the size of the animal, how much ingested, etc.
Lantana is listed as a toxic class 1, which states: Major Toxicity: These plants may cause serious illness or death. If ingested, immediately call the Poison Control Center or your doctor.
Here is a list of Toxic Plants and the degree of toxicity, known as toxic class.
My mom had a dopey Afgan hound that ate a mid-sized oleander to the ground. I don't know if it made him more dopey but it didn't kill the dog. You never know with animals and plants. Thank goodness my dogs and kids don't browse my plants! PJ
My dog Mo only eats a bit of it an only occasionally. It hasn't been in recent weeks, seemed to eat it more often in the spring. For whatever reason, he never grabbed a big mouthful, only tips. This is a dog that is careful about his food, if I were to toss him a piece of fajita meat wrapped in tortilla with melted cheese, he would carefully unwrap and inspect it.

voice level
While listening to the mp3 file of issue 192, I have difficulty in understanding what the speakers were saying. Not that they don't speak clear enough, but it's the voice level which causes trouble. The problem is one speaks too loud while the other person whispers. It's indeed annoying to adjust the volume up and down constantly just to grab the conversation. I hope this only applies to this issue as I have lost interest in trying other feeds.
Hopefully this would be addressed in future issues and this comment is viewed as feedback more than a complaint.
Thanks for the time and keep up the good work.

Chateau Souverain Cabernet Sauvignon Winemakers Reserve 2010
Chateau Souverain - California - United States - Sonoma Valley - Alexander Valley
Professional Wine Reviews for Chateau Souverain Cabernet Sauvignon Winemakers Reserve 2010Additional information »
2010 saw extremely high quality viticulture in many parts of the world, with an exceptionally long and hot summer providing huge benefits for wineries across many countries, especially in the southern hemisphere. The northern hemisphere and Europe saw something of a cooler summer and flowering period, but this was by no means as disastrous as it could have been. France, especially, had a fantastic year in 2010, with the world renowned Burgundy region proclaiming that their white wines of this year are ones to look out for, and despite yields being relatively small across much of the country, the quality was exceptionally high. Spain, too, received some cooler weather, but Rioja and the rest of central Spain are hailing 2010 as a very good year indeed, again as a result of smaller, finer yields. California also received similar climatic conditions, but again, wineries are highly positive about the overall effect this had on their produce, as the slightly challenging conditions resulted in smaller yields of much elegance and distinction. 2010 was really Australia's year, and in South Australia and across the Mornington Peninsula, Chardonnay vines produced good yields with a lower sugar level than in previous years. As such, the majority of South Australian white wines from 2010 are superb, and packed full of character. Shiraz also had a great year, and most Australian wineries have been proclaiming 2010 one of the great vintages. Both the Argentinian and Chilean wine industries benefited from some ideal climatic conditions this year, and are reportedly ecstatically pleased with the fact that their 2010 wines ended up with lower alcohol levels, and were beautifully balanced wines packed full of flavor.
From the valleys of California and Chile to the rolling hillsides of the Bordeaux region of France, the one red wine grape varietal you will find in abundance is the Cabernet Sauvignon. This darkly colored grape has been cultivated since the mid 18th century, when it was borne from a cross of fine Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc varietals. Since then, it has spread around the world and has been received with pleasure by wineries looking for a varietal which delivers excellence of flavor and aroma, whilst being hardy enough to resist frost and rot and other such difficulties. Indeed, Cabernet Sauvignon is probably the most recognizable red wine grape varietal on earth, and is easily distinguished by its high tannin level and acidic nature, which is often so beautifully mellowed by being blended with Merlot and other such grapes.
California has long been the New World's most important and prodigious wine producing regions, with a history which stretches back to the 18th century and the Spanish pioneers who settled here. Today, California produces vast quantities of wine, and if it were a country, it would be the fourth largest producer of wine on earth. Despite experiencing many problems in the mid 20th century, including a very serious blight which almost crippled the state's wine industry, the ideal terroir and excellent climate ensured that Californian wines soon became the envy of the New World once again. California produces a vast range of wines, and utilizes a long list of fine grape varietals, with many wineries and their produce more closely resembling those of France and other Old World countries in regards to character, practices and flavors
Whilst there are several strains of native grape varietals in the United States, it was the introduction of the European species which prompted the country to begin producing wines on a large scale. Over the past few centuries, experimentation and cross-breeding has produced great successes in regards to the quality and suitability of the fruit grown in states such as California, Oregon, Washington and New York, and the past few decades have seen New World wines from the United States reach much higher standards. Arguably the finest United States wines have always come out of California, where the climate and terrroir is most suitable for fine wine production. The masterful blending of classic grape varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, amongst others including Syrah and Chardonnay, have had world beating results in recent years, prompting many to suggest that there has never been a better time for buying and drinking United States wines.
California's beautiful and remarkably fertile Sonoma Valley has grown over the decades to become one of the United States' most respected and profitable wine regions, with wineries within the region benefiting from the superb Californian sunshine, low rainfall and wonderfully rich soils. Because of this vital combination of excellent conditions, the region is able to grow a wide range of grape varietals for use in the production of an impressive array of wines, with many different red and white wine grapes flourishing each year and producing excellent and characterful results. The soils have been enriched by volcanic activity, and the presence of geothermal springs, which make this region a unique one, and very much the beating heart of California's ever growing wine industry.

soursop in zone 9 ?
Has anybody tried growing soursop in central Fl (zone 9?). Would this grow in pots? is it self fertile ?
If so, any idea where can I get one from ?
Soursop is just another name for the Annona Muricata or Guanabana. I see seeds listed on eBay for cheap. I think zone 9 is just a little too far north for it to grow without protection but for 10 seeds under 5 bucks (including shipping) it may be worth a try as every garden area has micro climates.
I think it is Flatwood Tree Farm in Riverview that had them at one time. I tried one as a host for a butterfly (Zebra Swallowtail, I think) but it died the first winter, which wasn't a very cold one. Maybe you can google them and see. I am in 9b, Lakeland
I think 9b would be too cold. I moved here in December and was told one of my small trees was a Soursop. We had one night of freezing in January. It was officially 31 and I had a quarter inch of ice in my birdbath. The tree lost all its leaves in 24 hours and had a lot of tip damage. It took a few months to recover and is fine now. I think multiple freezes would kill the buds and prevent regrowth. Multiple foliage kills would probably prevent any fruit set, but you can always try.

This park is mainly for monthly. They rent beat up travel trailers. The manager will rip you off. They charged us 325.00 a month, yet the ad in the paper says starting at 200.00. Dogs run loose. People are just a bunch of druggies, and if the manager doesn't like you, you're out! The owner is oblivious to the problems in the park; when we tried to complain he referred us to the manager. There is a pool, but it's empty and broken down. The place is run down, and ready to close. Please do not stay here. Things come up missing in the night. We camped at Brass Rail RV Park in a Motorhome.Undo

Cloud computing could revolutionize the intelligence community's analytical and big data processing capabilities, according to a white paper released by The Intelligence and National Security Alliance (INSA).
"However, before adopting a cloud architecture, organizations must fully articulate and assess how this technological approach will enable their organization's mission capabilities, cost-effectiveness, and the security of their classified data and intelligence," said Bob Gourley, INSA's Cloud Computing Task Force Chair and principal author of the paper, reported Rutrell Yasin at FCW's sister site, GCN.com.
The paper, "Cloud Computing: Risks, Benefits and Mission Enhancement for the Intelligence Community," provides critical analysis of current cloud adoption best practices, and discusses potential cost-savings, likely impacts on government organizational culture, potential deployment models and necessary security measures.

Woah dude. This is your best GaMetal ever; not that the others are bad, this is just that good. And I've never even played Punch-Out, unless (spoiler alert) you count Abobo's Big Adventure. This is really great, amazing job.

Here comes the sun (eventually)
After weeks of false starts and freezing temperatures, warm spring sunshine finally arrived over the weekend. But before rushing out to enjoy the rays, health professionals say it's important to remember the one product Minnesotans likely haven't thought about in months -- sunscreen.
Even in our higher latitude climate, exposure to ultraviolet radiation from the sun is dangerous, said Dr. Ryan Kelly, who practices family medicine at Mayo Clinic Health System in Red Wing.

Hammary Miramar Upholstered Mid-Back Desk Chair
About the ManufacturerHamilton Louden Bruce decided to try his hand at furniture manufacturing in October 1943. Leasing a small building for fifteen dollars a month, he hired two helpers and started to manufacture canvas covered lawn chairs, producing only about 24 chairs a day. Mr. Bruce named the company Hammary, after himself, Hamilton (Ham) and his wife Mary (mary). In 1947, Mr. Bruce dropped the lawn chair line and began to manufacture a group of occasional tables, able to sell $200,000 in orders before even the first sample tables were made at the plant!

The Right Chair for the Space
Gloria from Tennessee– Verified Buyer
For several months I had been looking for a chair that would be suitable for my writing desk. I was looking for something very specific because the desk is in the living room so I needed something functional yet with style. This chair fit the bill. The fabric color matched the other furniture and the wood matched the desk. Over all, I am pleased with my purchase. The only downside, if you can call it that, is the firmness of the seat. A little more padding would have been nice.
OUR SKU # HAM3791Miramar Upholstered Mid-Back Desk Chair is also sometimes listed under the following manufacturer numbers: 218-623

My Poinsetta's
My Poinsetta's are getting in the Holiday spirit!
romy, those are gorgeous! I was under the impression that they needed to be in full sun but I think that was wrong. Yours look great! Have they made it through a full winter? Last time I put some in the ground in Jacksonville, frost/freeze got them. I have two in pots (from last year!) and I want to try some in the ground again.
Carol, poinsettia and Christmas cactus need extended darkness hours and cooler weather to promote blooming. I've tucked last year's potted poinsettia into a corner of the yard that gets almost no light at night and the silly thing, tho abused, is still trying to 'get in the holiday spirit'! I really should put it in ground, I guess, even at this late date. Protecting it from a freeze will be a challenge.
Carol. The two on the right are about to have there 3rd Christmas. The one on the left is about to have it's second Christmas. I think the 170 year old oak tree that they grow under keeps them happy. Last year I thought the cold had killed them. I literally cut them back to almost nothing and by June they were bushier than ever. I cover them on super cold nights as well. Corar I planted all of mine in January and was lucky enough to get them to root in. I live in the Daytona Beach area.

Open Source Meets Needlework
ROSE Blog: Rikki's Open Source Exchange
About a year ago I wrote about Open Source Embroidery (and included a picture of an Audrey Hepburn pillow I embroidered, even though I doubt Audrey ever heard of Linux), and soon after that our World News editor included the project in her column.
Today I ran across a Wired online article, Geek Art: Needlework Brings Together Programmers, Crafters. Author Priya Ganapati writes, "Open source programmers and crafters may seem like they come from different worlds. Still, the two communities have much in common, says Ele Carpenter, the founder of Open Source Embroidery, a largely British movement."
Check out the article for more about the artists and some great photos of the fiber art, including an embroidered motherboard, an "HTML Patchwork" quilt, and a Knit-a-blog.comments powered by Disqus

The Senate Report on CIA Interrogations You May Never SeeQuicklink submitted by Amanda Lang Permalink
Become a Fan
(9 fans)
|A Senate committee is close to putting the final stamp on a massive report on the CIA's detention, interrogation and rendition of terror suspects. Senator Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., who heads the Select Committee on Intelligence, called the roughly 6,000-page report 'the most definitive review of this CIA program to be conducted.' But it's unclear how much, if any, of the review you might get to read. The committee first needs to vote to endorse the report. There will be a vote next week. Republicans, who are a minority on the committee, have been boycotting the investigation since the summer of 2009. They pulled back their cooperation after the Justice Department began a separate investigation into the CIA interrogations. Republicans have criticized that inquiry, arguing that the interrogations had been authorized by President George W. Bush's Justice Department...

Help needed with Mini 'woodland' : Mulch, moss, or groundcover?
Does anyone have suggestions about the best way to mulch/cover the bare ground of a miniature "woodland" garden bed?
The garden bed in question is a small, shaded garden bed (about 6 feet long and 2 feet wide) that has consistently moist soil. It's planted with Bleeding Heart (Dicentra spectabilis).
There are some bare ground areas in the bed, so I just added some Foamflower (Tiarella cordifolia), Christmas Fern (Polystichum acrostichoides) and Lady Fern (Athyrium filix-femina).
This particular garden bed has never been formally mulched, and has only a small patch of native moss on the ground, which appears to be Hypnum moss. We normally just remove any weeds, which is getting time-consuming.
I kind of dislike the way garden beds look when they are mulched with commercially processed wood chip mulch, punctuated by plants and shrubs sprouting up in between the mulch mounds.
Here are the 5 alternative options we're considering:
1. Leaves: Importing some fallen leaves from our actual full-scale woods for mulch (no leaves actually fall on the bed naturally).
3. More moss: I was thinking of purchasing some more Hypnum moss with the hope that it will eventually cover the bare areas of ground, but am unsure if this will be good for the other plants such as the Bleeding heart and the Jacob's Ladder. Would a carpet of moss make it difficult for rainwater to reach the roots of the other plants?
4. Skipping the mulch and just planting some kind of low-growing perennial like Wild Geranium (Geranium maculatum) or Woodland Phlox (Phlox divaricata).
5. Waiting for the Foamflower and ferns to fill in the bare ground areas.
If anyone thinks one of these options might be better than the other, or has any other suggestions, I'd appreciate it very much.
I would go with the imported leaves option as the area is small. Moss doesn't keep weed seeds out, you still have to pick weeds out of the moss. Also: the Fringed bleedingheart (dicentra eximia) will help fill in blank areas and won't go dormant in mid-summer as the d. spectabilis does. Hope this helps.
I like the leaves option also. Thats what i use. I live in an oak-hickory forest and try to keep all as natural as possible. My Cardinal plant is blooming now close to some wild dwarf iris. and wild onions. So looking cheerful.
I also have wild purple violets growing everywhere.
Thanks so much for the suggestions. I added some leaf mulch today just to see how it would look and it actually looks really great. I guess in my effort to mulch, I just mimicked how nature would fill in the bare ground of a real woodland! No wonder the leaf mulch seems to look "right." I'm sure the plants will like it too.
It's interesting that you mentioned the Dicentra eximia/Fringed Bleeding heart because I was looking at the Bleeding Heart today and thought its leaves looked unusual. The nursery tag says Dicentra spectabilis but the leaves look more like a Dicentra eximia. It's possible the nursery put a spectabilis tag on an eximia I suppose.
I didn't know that Dicentra eximia doesn't go dormant in the summer -- thanks for the info! We have a pink Dicentra spectabilis that goes dormant in the summer but the "Alba" is new, so we haven't seen it through a summer yet. Maybe we're in luck and the new "Alba" spectabilis is actually an eximia. I was planning on planting some ferns around it so that when it goes dormant the ferns will cover the fading foliage, but maybe now I won't need to.
Wow, Cardinal plant--it must be beautiful. We have violets popping up all over now too (in our lawn), so I'm transplanting some of them to the mini "woodland".
Thanks again for everyone's help!
I also am planning a mini woodland garden - tabletop, about 2m x 1m, and I also am looking for something to use as ground cover; I was looking for some kind of grass-effect.
someone suggested moss, but I know very little of what kinds are availabe, and I've not been able to find the Google keywords that will bring up the real plants, not artificial or books about it or people called Moss. If anyone can offer suggestions, either for the plant or better keywords, I'd appreaciate it!
Check ebay UK. Try bryophytes, live green moss, live moss plants, sphagnum moss. Here is one that has some live green moss beside sphagnum in it. Maybe the dude from Wales will be willing to offer regular terrestrial mosses if you ask him?
Here is a link that might be useful: sphagnum moss with other mosses in it
