The Genie Awards happened in Toronto last night. Viggo Mortensen was named Best Actor. Of course he took the opportunity to show some love for his Habs. As always. And for Phillippe Falardeau and Monsieur Lazhar. I don't think I have to say much more to those of you who are enjoying this? Enjoy! Full Story
So much pretty sexy
Getty Images, Splash News
David Cronenberg's A Dangerous Method screened at the London Film Festival tonight with all three of the film's headliners in attendance looking very pretty and or very sexy and in the case of Michael Fassbender, obviously, both. Keira's dress on Keira is magnificent. I wonder if Keira's dress on anyone else produces the same results. Full Story
Cronenberg, Keira, Cassel, Viggo, and Fassbender
Did you see A History of Violence? How about Eastern Promises? Good things happen when David Cronenberg and Viggo Mortensen make movies together. This time it's A Dangerous Method. The photo call happened in Venice earlier today. Cronenberg was joined by his cast. Because of the time difference, the premiere photos will likely hit the agencies in the next couple of hours.

Viggo's girlfriend, and some smut
There's so little on him, and then when it's there, it's the really good kind. Ok so first, check out Viggo Mortensen in Spain the other day, holding hands and embracing Ariadna Gil. They met on the 2006 movie Alatriste. She was married at the time, has a child, and according to some Spanish gossips, left her husband after falling in desperate love with Viggo, and they've been together ever since. Full Story
Viggo & Poetry
I think once a week a smutty shout-out request comes in for someone's birthday and they want to include some love for Viggo Mortensen. The problem with Viggo is that he's rarely out on that scene, so it's hard to get new photos. There are new photos! And a hot story to go with them. Full Story
Viggo on the backburner?
Viggo Mortsensen was at the NY premiere of The Road last night. The Road was supposed to be an Oscar contender and still has an outside shot but since it's been languishing on the shelf for a year, and with muted buzz going into the season, The Road and Viggo's chances are now considerably more modest. Full Story
Viggo's Manbag
Written by Jacek Manbags are a touchy area for any straight guy. For most straight guys, I'd say it's a no go zone (even if they wanted to – which for most guys isn't even an issue). But under certain conditions, it can be done. However, the dude has to wear clothes well, have good style in general, and has to be comfortable in his own skin. Full Story
The Road Less Taken
Viggo Mortensen is looking dandy as ever in this svelte black suit and pristine white shirt. And his hair looks so healthy and luscious, you know he likes to sit down in front of a mirror at night and brush it exactly 1000 times like Marcia Brady would do. As promised, Viggo is currently making the rounds at TIFF promoting the new film The Road, which also stars Charlize Theron and Guy Pearce. Full Story
Hi Viggo!
I know many of you are fans. So here's Viggo Mortensen in Venice today at the film festival to promote The Road. The Road is also coming to TIFF. Yes…Viggo at TIFF. The Road was actually supposed to be released last year in time for award season. They said it wasn't ready and pushed it back. Full Story
Empire Men
Last night in London at the Empire Awards, Viggo Mortensen was honoured with the Empire Icon Award. I know you're out there. I know there is a strong minority of you who want more Viggo. Could you wake up to Viggo? It would scare me, I think, to wake up to Viggo. But as you can see, Viggo clearly doesn't care about graying. Full Story

Solar food drying is a very simple, ancient skill. It requires a safe place to spread the food where dry air in large quantities can pass over and beside thin pieces. Sun is often used to provide the hot dry air. Dry, clean air including dry cold air from any source will dehydrate food.
[show]Draping food over branches or spreading it on wide shallow baskets on the roof is an old widespread tradition still in use around the world. Many other arrangements have been used to support a thin spread of food pieces. Some options that have been used are to thread the pieces on a cord or a stick and hang it over a fire, wood stove or from the rafters. Or one can bundle herbs or strawflowers and suspend them from bushes or a door knob or nails in rooms with good ventilation. Screen doors placed across chairs or sheets hung between clothes lines or possibly on a quilting frame have also been used. Vans, clean garages, or backseats of cars can be safe places to spread trays of drying food just as well as specially constructed cabinets. In the pioneer tradition food might be spread in the attic or in an upstairs room with screened windows wide open.
Modern variations are to build special enclosed drying racks or cabinets to expose the food to a flow of dry air heated by electricity, propane or solar radiation are a modern variation. These are refinements not essential to the basic process but handy, particularly in the humid tropics or when the rainy season coincides with the harvest.
Natural ventilation may be used in dry areas such as the American southwest or the Arctic. If necessary, the drying capacity of the air can be increased by heating it, which lowers the relative humidity. While any source of heat may be used, solar energy is free and usually plentiful in season. A solar heating panel screened on both ends with air intake on one end and opening to the food at the other is universally used to solar heat air. Hot dry air may be moved over the food by use of natural convection or a solar chimney or a fan run on solar electricity.
Trays need not be bulky and in fact lightweight ones with open screening block less airflow and so are preferable. Screening may be woven out of local materials or may be commercial screen of non-toxic materials such as nylon and some plastics. Fiberglass window screening is not recommended as it is coated with vinyl that may contain flame retardants and other chemicals. Open weave organic fibers and nylon material works fairly well, but can be difficult to clean. The usual commercial bridal veil is too fragile to last as screening on the trays but may be spread over top to control insects. Avoid screen materials that may contain toxic chemicals or additives. Galvanized metal screens or aluminum or copper screens are not recommended as potentially toxic salts can migrate into the food. Top quality food drying screens are made from food-safe plastic screening, such as polypropylene, which is available from Living Food Dehydrators and Sunworks Technologies. (See Bibliography)
Trays, if used, are sized to comfortable dimensions (70 cm. (24") x 70 cm. (24") or 51 cm. (20") x 76 cm. (30"), for instance). Then a supporting rack is made to that size. Air flow is essential so it is important that trays be sufficiently far apart to ventilate properly -- 15 cm. (6") to 20 cm. (8") if using natural ventilation. Less for forced ventilation. Tray frames should be light, but strong -- 3 cm. (1.25") x 6 mm. (1/4") or 2 cm. (3/4") x 1.25 cm. (1/2") small wood strips are sufficient for most purposes. The wood strips for the tray frames are cut to the full length and the full width of the tray. They are overlaid at the corners, notched if they are very thick, glued and screwed. Or they may be nailed with small nails which are bent over on the under side and pounded flat. Screen is stapled on. It may be secured with silicon sealant or thin lightweight wood or both.
One or two heavier screens made from 2.5 cm. (1") x 5 cm. (2") pine and covered with galvanized hardware cloth, are useful for drying non-food items -- clothing, wool, kindling and so forth. For support of extra heavy loads, rigid galvanized trays may be used under food safe screen. Galvanized screens may also be used to make fruit leathers. The sauce is protected from the galvanized metal by a sheet of Tedlar or of regular kitchen plastic taped to the frame.
Indoors, it is easy to use screened trays placed around on chairs or saw horses. No further equipment may be needed. Outside, the food must be protected against insects and animals and moved or covered in case of rain or blowing dust. Exposed trays also must be carried in at night and out again in the morning to prevent rehydration from the dew even in the desert.
A single layer of trays outdoors may be covered with sheets of cotton, glass or plastic through which the sun falls on the food. Sunlight heats the food driving out moisture. The moisture-laden air falls down from the bottom of the screened trays. In this generic design, the food is usually exposed to direct sunlight. Direct sunlight destroys some of the more fragile vitamins and enzymes and the food loses color. The better quality food is produced by flat screen designs having a dark sheet of cloth or metal that shades the food. This metal shield slows the drying but these designs are still very productive. Their disadvantages are they spread out over a larger area of ground than the cabinets and they tend to blow over in gusty wind.
One simple, open-air dryer design that can be used indoors or outside is called the Kerr-Cole Z-dryer. This is a rack of trays 15 cm. (6") to 20 cm. (8") apart stacked in a frame. The frame of open racks is braced with a diagonal piece of wood forming a Z. (See the bibliography). The frame can be sized to fit an available space such as the back of a car, or some place in a well-ventilated room, etc. Also Z-dryers also can stand in the yard, optionally covered with a light cloth. Or one can be fitted to go into a solar heated, ventilated cabinet such as a downdraft solar food dryer. Without increasing drying time very much such an open rack may be covered with a lightweight cloth to protect from insects. Ants and other crawling insects may be blocked from the trays of food by placing the feet of a rack in containers of water. Such moats can be used with any of the stacked designs. If ants and some other insects invade the drying racks, it is difficult to remove them. However, they will go home at night. Protective measure instituted early the next morning can block their return.
UPDRAFT SOLAR DRYER designs are the most frequently seen cabinet form. In this design, the hot air flows upward through a solar heat collection trough and enters the bottom of a cabinet underneath the food. The dry air rises through the trays and around the food, exiting through a vent at the top or near the top of the shadowed side. (See the Bibliography -- Valdez) The theoretical basis for this design is that hot air rises and therefore when heated, the air flows naturally upward through the trays of food.
DIRECTLY HEATED SOLAR cabinet dryers allow the sun to directly heat and dry the food inside an enclosed one-piece cabinet. Direct heating tends to be very efficient and produces fast drying. Proper air flow is essential to achieve maximum performance.
Solar food dryers can be hybridized so they continue to dry during cloudy weather. Removing a tray or two from the bottom, a very small flame from a 16 oz. or picnic size propane burner can be placed on the bottom. Alternately a small electric heating unit may be used. Heat rises and triggers the same effect as the solar heat. It is important to avoid overheating the food, maintaining temperatures below 49°C 120°F.
Food drying is not difficult, although some books give considerable details on handling each food differently. Special guidelines are needed for handling jerky and fish. (See bibliography and your own recipes.) General guidelines for fruits and vegetables follow:- Good quality food cut in thin pieces, not more than about 6 mm. (1/4") to 1" (3/8") thick
- Spread thinly on trays initially so there is a third to a half of the screen area clear for the passage of air. Can be more compact after the first moisture is gone.
- Label all food on the trays and carry the label along through processing to storage.
Thick vegetables need to be blanched or lightly pre-cooked. Leafy vegetables may be wilted slightly with steam, or dried directly from the garden. Cook potatoes and green beans completely. Fruit is pretreated by dipping in quite sour lemon water, or Ascorbic Acid (Vit.C) 2000mg (.07 oz.)/1.1 litre (1 quart). After a short soak, the fruit is drained and spread on trays. This retards browning. (Later, the sour soak water flavored by the fruit can be used as a concentrate for making cool drinks.) Sugar, honey or salt are optional. Sulfuring is no longer used in most homes due to the possibility of breathing the hazardous fumes and allergic reactions to sulfur compounds. It has been found to be unnecessary anyway.
To test if food is sufficiently dried, remove a piece and let it cool. Vegetables should be brittle. Fruits, because of their sugar content, may never get beyond a firm bend or leather quality and it is okay if they become a little brittle.They just need a little more soaking or chewing time for full flavor to develop.
All dried foods may be pasteurized after drying except for the greens and herbs. Spread dried food no more than 2.5 cm. (1") thick on a metal tray and cover it with another dark metal tray. A solar oven is excellent for this. Place it in an oven at temperature between 93°C (200°F) and 105°C (220°F) for 10 minutes. Stir and leave another 10 minutes. Do not overtreat. Cool and package immediately. Store in a dry location as cool as possible.
For people on the move or with limited storage space, plastic freezer bags are safe, durable and easily transported. Food should be put in small clean bags, labeled and dated. The smaller bags can be grouped into larger freezer bags, giving larvae two layers to penetrate if they attempt to invade. For those who avoid plastic, glass jars or metal containers with tight lids do well. Pack to eliminate air.
Indians in the American Southwest sometimes stored dried food in large earthen jars packed very tightly and covered with leather tied on tightly. These jars were kept on the roof and so were subject to low temperatures at night. Others stored dried food in hay-lined pits lined with flat rocks to deter rodents. These pits were so deep a person had to be assisted to get out. These were covered with leather or boards as a rain protection.
All stored food should be checked periodically for weevils. Weevils are a small, relatively clean insect. Infestations come from eggs hatched in your storage area. They grow to about 13 mm. (1/2") long and then go into a small webbed cocoon. The mature form is a thin, gray-brown moth about 13 mm. (1/2") long. Infestation can be controlled by eliminating the adult moths before they lay their eggs. Once hatched, the larvae feed only on your clean food. The form most prevalent in the USA is found as white, soft-bodied active "worms" with dark heads. Since they feed only in the stored food, they do not usually carry disease or toxic contamination. Even if the larvae themselves are not visible, weevil infestation is easily recognized. Small brown granules in the bottom of the packages or 13 mm. (1/2") bits of white webs indicate infestation. The same pasteurization method can be used to kill adult and immature weevils. Treat and then sift out the residue. Pasteurized dried goods rarely show infestation if stored in airtight containers. If stored in bread bags, they almost always will.
Cooked weevil infested food is usually safe to serve and eat if food is scarce. Some cooks on seeing larva facetiously say "Just a little clean protein ... God's gift to vegetarians." But prevention is the best policy. Clean, quick handling and good packaging is the key along with storing at the lowest available room temperature. Below 70 degrees there is little or no weevil activity.
So drying and storing food is a simple process. Using dried food can be equally simple. Fruits or vegetables may be eaten out of hand. Or fruit may be rinsed with water, drained briefly, and placed in a closed jar in the refrigerator to soften. Any of the dried produce may be covered with boiling water to slightly above the food level. Food should then be tossed to insure all parts of the dried bits are in contact with water. Most foods are allowed to stand for 15 minutes (equal parts packed food and water) before being added to standard recipes. Heavier pieces may require more time to rehydrate to the center. Easier yet, they may be just thrown in dry by the handful into soups or casseroles. Crisp dried foods may be pulverized in a blender and added by the spoonful to recipes for breads, soups, casseroles, sauces, etc.
For instance, greens can be used as a regular dish by pouring boiled water over them and then continuing steaming for a few additional minutes depending on the type of green. Dried squash and small pieces of potatoes can be covered with boiling water plus about 13 mm. (1/2") depth. They are then allowed to stand for 20 to 30 minutes to become moistened to the center before starting to cook. Larger pieces of potatoes require soaking for several hours.
Nutritionally, dried food is ranked by the USDA as better than canning, just under freezing. The tastes are related to the food, but there is some uniqueness in their flavor and texture. This is similar to the differences between fresh, frozen, and canned foods...another variation in taste.
In conclusion, select good food, wash, slice, dip or blanch, spread on trays or other drying arrangement and allow to dry. Pasteurize, package with a label showing the date and anything special about the food and store in a cool dark dry location as much as possible.. Use in rotation, oldest packages first. If there is excess, it can be pulverized in a blender and added to many foods: breads, casseroles, soups, gravies, sauces.
Stored dried food is prepared every growing season. Dried food should be used within the next months as the nutritional value slowly drops over time. It is customarily eaten the following winter and then any remainder composed as soon as new foods become available. As you enjoy solar food drying, you are joining generations who have preserved foods in this manner over the ages. Please pass this simple basic knowledge long to your children or community.
News and recent developments
- November 2012: Solar Food Dehydrator - Stan Cajdler of Brisbane, Australia has developed a solar food dehydrator, which significantly reduces the formation of mold spores caused by the nightly cooling of food. Typically, the drying process can last for several days for successful solar food drying. In this design several water containers (for thermal mass) are positioned in the lower chamber of the dehydrator. As the collector plate heats up, it heats up the surrounding air, which rises through the drying chamber. During the day, radiant heat from the collection plates also heats the water containers, which slowly release heat overnight. This overnight thermal air movement through the upper chamber dramatically reduces the formation of mold spores. For more information on Stan's solar cooker designs check out: Sizzling Solar Systems
- October 2012: Foresight Technology has developed a lightweight, large capacity, portable, solar food dehydrator. It is highly effective. Its unique four sided absorber design allows for an extended daily drying period. It is available for shipping.
- February 2011: A group from the UC Davis Program for International Energy Technologies installed a solar box dryer for drying fruit in Nicaragua. They worked with the local organizations Grupo Fenix and the Solar Women of Totogalpa. They also connected with students and faculty at the Alternative Energy Program at Nicaragua's National Engineering University, and the directors of the new dried fruit export company SolSimple. They plan to send a follow-up trip the summer of 2011. More Information...
- May 2006: John Maina of Kenya wins the Energy Globe Award for 2006. Employing solar energy for drying food & gaining income security In Kenya, 30-40% of vegetables and fruits are lost due to poor post-harvest handling. The lack of firewood, which is necessary for drying and treatment of durable goods, is one of the major reasons for the loss. Since 2002 SCODE (Sustainable Community Development Services) has employed a solar dryer in Kenya for the drying of harvesting produce. The advantages are obvious: solar energy is free and available virtually everywhere. The fresh produce can be made durable in a cheap way and market value will be increased. Through the fast drying process the farmers can raise harvesting production and therefore able to generate additional income. This means up to 50% more productivity. The time needed for collecting firewood before, can now be used for various other activities and deforestation is reduced as well. Currently 30 solar dryers have been installed and 920 farmers have been trained in the use of these. Thirty craftsmen have also been trained in the construction and installation of these solar dryers. The project contributes to an overall improvement of living conditions, family nutrition, environment protection and income generation. At the moment the project is implemented in the Rift Valley in Kenya and has the potential to be duplicated in other areas.[1]

"These cards came out exactly how I wanted. The card stock is thicker then most cards you'd buy at a store and therefore are of higher quality in my opinion. Perfect size to fit a short Thank you note. No complaints!"
"I was able to was able to easily personalize this card at the bottom with all our names. The quality of the paper and envelopes was sturdy and the colors turned out exactly how I saw it online. I used these as thank you cards for our baby shower- I used a very similar Invite from Tiny Prints as well. I will be ordering our birth announcements from Tiny Prints because of the great service and quality and their variety of the cutest designs that were affordable online."
"I absolutely love these thank you cards. The template online shows a signed name at the bottom of the card - which is super cute - but I chose to leave the name area blank for two reasons: 1) so that my 5-yr old could hand-write his name on them after I filled the rest of the information in for him. (and let me just tell you that I rec'd phone calls from several people after they rec'd our thank you card and they just LOVED that my 5-yr old had signed each of them!!) 2) so that I can use them, also, for my one-year old's gifts! They're SUCH great quality, super cute, and really handy, as I mentioned already, b/c I customized them in such a way that I could use them for both of my kiddos' gifts! Thank you, Tiny Prints!"
"The design and quality of this thank you is really impressive. And I'm sure that other moms would agree that any stationary that gets an eight year old boy excited to write a thank you is well worth the price. Thank you for this lovely product."
"I purchased these for my son to learn to write thank you. It is great. Very easy to use and you get the job done with alot less hassel from kids that do not want to write alot."

A week to 10 days before planting, add 2 to 4 inches of aged manure or compost and work into the planting site to improve fertility and increase water retention and drainage. If soil composition is weak, a layer of topsoil should be considered as well. No matter if your soil is sand or clay, it can be improved by adding the same thing: organic matter. The more, the better; work deep into the soil. Prepare beds to an 18 inch deep for perennials. This will seem like a tremendous amount of work now, but will greatly pay off later. Besides, this is not something that is easily done later, once plants have been established. How-to : Planting Bulbs Plant bulbs at a depth that is three times their height, and at least 1-1/2 bulb-widths apart. Work a little bone meal fertilizer into the bottom of your hole, and then place the bulb upright in the hole. The more pointed end is almost always the top. If you have trouble telling which is the top, look for evidence of where a stem or roots were last year. If in doubt, plant them sideways. Fill in with soil gently, making sure there are no rocks or clods that would impede the bulb's stem. When planting a great number of bulbs, dig out an area to the specified depth, place bulbs and replace soil. This ensures that ground has been properly prepared and bulbs are evenly spaced.
Plant bulbs in natural drifts rather that formal rows: bulbs can fail or be eaten, leaving holes in a formal arrangement, or will shift with freezing and thawing. If you have trouble with gophers or squirrels eating your bulbs, try sprinkling red pepper in the holes, covering the bulbs with chicken-wire, surround bulbs with sharp shards of gravel or other substance, or planting rodent-repelling bulbs like Fritillaria nearby. How-to : Planting Perennials Determine appropriate perennials for your garden by considering sun and shade through the day, exposure, water requirements, climate, soil makeup, seasonal color desired, and position of other garden plants and trees.
The best times to plant are spring and fall, when soil is workable and out of danger of frost. Fall plantings have the advantage that roots can develop and not have to compete with developing top growth as in the spring. Spring is more desirable for perennials that dislike wet conditions or for colder areas, allowing full establishment before first winter. Planting in summer or winter is not advisable for most plants, unless planting a more established sized plant.
To plant container-grown plants: Prepare planting holes with appropriate depth and space between. Water the plant thoroughly and let the excess water drain before carefully removing from the container. Carefully loosen the root ball and place the plant in the hole, working soil around the roots as you fill. If the plant is extremely root bound, separate roots with fingers. A few slits made with a pocket knife are okay, but should be kept to a minimum. Continue filling in soil and water thoroughly, protecting from direct sun until stable.
To plant bare-root plants: Plant as soon as possible after purchase. Prepare suitable planting holes, spread roots and work soil among roots as you fill in. Water well and protect from direct sun until stable.
To plant seedlings: A number of perennials produce self-sown seedlings that can be transplanted. You may also start your own seedling bed for transplanting. Prepare suitable planting holes, spacing appropriately for plant development. Gently lift the seedling and as much surrounding soil as possible with your garden trowel, and replant it immediately, firming soil with fingertips and water well. Shade from direct sun and water regularly until stable.
Prevention and Control: Plant resistant varieties and provide maximum air circulation. Clean up all debris, especially around plants that have had a problem. Do not water from overhead and water only during the day so that plants will have enough time to dry before night. Apply a fungicide labeled for rust on your plant. Fungi : Powdery Mildew Powdery Mildew is usually found on plants that do not have enough air circulation or adequate light. Problems are worse where nights are cool and days are warm and humid. The powdery white or gray fungus is usually found on the upper surface of leaves or fruit. Leaves will often turn yellow or brown, curl up, and drop off. New foliage emerges crinkled and distorted. Fruit will be dwarfed and often drops early.
Prevention and Control: Plant resistant varieties and space plants properly so they receive adequate light and air circulation. Always water from below, keeping water off the foliage. This is paramount for roses. Go easy on the nitrogen fertilizer. Apply fungicides according to label directions before problem becomes severe and follow directions exactly, not missing any required treatments. Sanitation is a must - clean up and remove all leaves, flowers, or debris in the fall and destroy. Pest : Caterpillars Caterpillars are the immature form of moths and butterflies. They are voracious feeders attacking a wide variety of plants. They can be highly destructive and are characterized as leaf feeders, stem borers, leaf rollers, cutworms and tent-formers.
Prevention and Control: keep weeds down, scout individual plants and remove caterpillars, apply labeled insecticides such as soaps and oils, take advantage of natural enemies such as parasitic wasps in the garden and use Bacillus thuringiensis (biological warfare) for some caterpillar species. Fungi : Leaf Spots Leaf spots are caused by fungi or bacteria. Brown or black spots and patches may be either ragged or circular, with a water soaked or yellow-edged appearance. Insects, rain, dirty garden tools, or even people can help its spread.
Prevention and Control: Remove infected leaves when the plant is dry. Leaves that collect around the base of the plant should be raked up and disposed of. Avoid overhead irrigation if possible; water should be directed at soil level. For fungal leaf spots, use a recommended fungicide according to label directions.
Fungi : Downy Mildew Downy Mildew, a fluffy white fungal growth that develops on the underside of leaves, is most common during cool, humid conditions. Foliage often discolors and is stunted.
Prevention and Control: Use disease free plants and space far enough apart so that air circulation is good. Remove and discard infected leaves or even entire plants. Use a recommended fungicide and always follow the directions on the label.
For best results, always cut flowers early in the morning, preferably before dew has had a chance to dry. Always make cuts with a sharp knife or pruners and plunge flowers or foliage into a bucket of water. Store in a cool place until you are ready to work with them, this will keep flowers from opening. Always re-cut stems and change water frequently. Washing vases or containers to rid of existing bacteria helps increase their life, as well. Glossary : Bird Attracting The term bird attracting applies to any plant that has flowers, fruit, nuts, or structure that attracts birds. Most plants on ""bird attracting"" lists have favorable fruits or flowers that serve as food, but the trunks, limbs and foliage cover that trees and shrubs provide should not be overlooked as they add shelter for raising young and protection from foul weather. Glossary : Butterfly Attracting Many plants, perennials being the largest group, attract butterflies. When you add butterfly attracting plants to your garden, not only do you get to enjoy these winged wonders, but you provide habitats for their survival, as well. Yellows and reds seem to be favorite flower colors, while some plants offer food and shelter for laying eggs on. To complete your habitat, don't forget to add a shallow dish of water. Glossary : Sandy Loam Sandy Loam refers to a soil that drains well, with excellent air space, and evenly crumbled texture when squeezed in the hand. A good workable garden soil that benefits from added fertilizer and proper watering. Dark gray to gray-brown in color. Glossary : Loam Loam is the ideal soil, having the perfect balance between particle size, air space, organic matter and water holding capacity. It forms a nice ball when squeezed in the palm of the hand, but crumbles easily when lightly tapped with a finger. Rich color ranges between gray brown to almost black. Glossary : Clayey Loam Clayey loam refers to a soil that retains moisture well, without having a drainage problem. Fertility is high and texture good. Easily forms a ball when squeezed in the hand, and then crumbles easily with a quick tap of the finger. Considered an ideal soil. Usually a rich brown color. Glossary : Perennial Perennial: traditionally a non-woody plant that lives for two or more growing seasons. Glossary : pH pH, means the potential of Hydrogen, is the measure of alkalinity or acidity. In horticulture, pH refers to the pH of soil. The scale measures from 0, most acid, to 14, most alkaline. Seven is neutral. Most plants prefer a range between 5.5 and about 6.7, an acid range, but there are plenty of other plants that like soil more alkaline, or above 7. A pH of 7 is where the plant can most easily absorb the most nutrients in the soil. Some plants prefer more or less of certain nutrients, and therefore do better at a certain pH. Glossary : Heat Zone The 12 zones of the AHS Heat Zone map indicate the average number of days each year that a given region experiences ""heat days"" or temperatures over 86 degrees F(30 degrees Celsius). That is the point at which plants begin suffering physiological damage from heat. The zones range from Zone 1 (less than one heat day) to Zone 12 (more than 210 heat days). The AHS Heat Zone, which deals with heat tolerance, should not be confused with the USDA Hardiness Zone system which deals with cold tolerance. For example: Seattle, Washington has a USDA Hardiness Zone of 8, the same as Charleston, South Carolina; however Seattle's Heat Zone is 2 where Charleston's Heat Zone is 11. What this says is that winter temperature in the two cities may be similar, but because Charleston has significantly warmer weather for a longer period of time, plant selection based on heat tolerance is a factor to consider. Glossary : Plant Characteristics Plant characteristics define the plant, enabling a search that finds specific types of plants such as bulbs, trees, shrubs, grass, perennials, etc. Glossary : Flower Characteristics Flower characteristics can vary greatly and may help you decide on a ""look or feel"" for your garden. If you're looking for fragrance or large, showy flowers, click these boxes and possibilities that fit your cultural conditions will be shown. If you have no preference, leave boxes unchecked to return a greater number of possibilities. Glossary : Foliage Characteristics By searching foliage characteristics, you will have the opportunity to look for foliage with distinguishable features such as variegated leaves, aromatic foliage, or unusual texture, color or shape. This field will be most helpful to you if you are looking for accent plants. If you have no preference, leave this field blank to return a larger selection of plants. Glossary : Soil Types A soil type is defined by granule size, drainage, and amount of organic material in the soil. The three main soil types are sand, loam and clay. Sand has the largest particle size, no organic matter, little to no fertility, and drains rapidly. Clay, at the opposite end of the spectrum, has the smallest particle size, can be rich in organic matter, fertility and moisture, but is often unworkable because particles are held together too tightly, resulting in poor drainage when wet, or is brick-like when dry. The optimum soil type is loam, which is the happy median between sand and clay: It is high in organic matter, nutrient-rich, and has the perfect water holding capacity.
You will often hear loam referred to as a sandy loam (having more sand, yet still plenty of organic matter) or a clay loam (heavier on the clay, yet workable with good drainage.) The addition of organic matter to either sand or clay will result in a loamy soil. Still not sure if your soil is a sand, clay, or loam? Try this simple test. Squeeze a handfull of slightly moist, not wet, soil in your hand. If it forms a tight ball and does not fall apart when gently tapped with a finger, your soil is more than likely clay. If soil does not form a ball or crumbles before it is tapped, it is sand to very sandy loam. If soil forms a ball, then crumbles readily when lightly tapped, it's a loam. Several quick, light taps could mean a clay loam. How-to : Getting the Most Out of Cut Flowers Cut flowers bring the garden into your home. While some cut flowers have a long vase life, most are highly perishable. How cut flowers are treated when you first bring them home can significantly increase how long they last.
The most important thing to consider is getting sufficient water taken up into the cut stem. Insufficient water can result in wilting and short-lived flowers. Bent neck of roses, where the flower head droops, is the result of poor water uptake. To maximize water uptake, first re-cut the stems at an angle so that the vascular system (the ""plumbing"" of the stem) is clear. Next immerse the cut stems in warm water.
Remember when the flower is cut, it is cut off from its food supply. Once water is taken care of, food is the resource that will run out next. The plants stems naturally feed the flowers with sugars. If you add a bit of sugar (1 tsp.) to the vase water, this will help feed the flower stems and extend their vase life.
Bacteria will build up in vase water and eventually clog up the stem so the flower cannot take up water. To prevent this, change the vase water frequently and make a new cut in the stems every few days.
Floral preservatives, available from florists, contain sugars, acids and bacteriacides that can extend cut flower life. These come in small packets and are generally available where cut flowers are sold. If used properly, these can extend the vase life of some cut flowers 2 to 3 times when compared with just plain water in the vase.

Would not buy this product again
By Rika
from Alhambra, CA
Used this product to my 2 year old lab who has been hyper-active for the past 1 1/2 years. Big yard, has 6 year old shepard to play with.Have usea a shock collar for excessive barking and a citro spray collar to no effect.Your product made NO change in the hyper-activity.
Worked pretty well
By CrazyCatLady5
from Citrus Heights, CA
After a couple of weeks of using this, our 4 year old cat, Widdle, became a lot calmer cat. I noticed that she wasn't meowing all over the house anymore. She had issues with spraying around the house at night. We would find 2-5 urine spots a day. It was getting beyond stressful for my husband and I to clean them daily. She got better for a while until she became allergic. I guess she's allergic to soy too. We will add that to her list of allergies. This product worked great until then. I recommend it to anyone with a cat that has anxiety/stress issues just as long as they aren't allergic to soy :O)

I'm a certified beliver
By Doggies No Ka Oi
from Waipahu, Hawaii
I've used this product for both our 9 and 2 year old Dobermans during New Year's and weeks leading up to New Year's when people have blown fireworks. It keeps them calm and took off the edge yet didn't make them groggy at all. The cost is minimal for the results you get and you only need very little.
I plan to buy this product again!

from Catlett, Virginia 20119
I have trained my Corgis in various performance areas, but my favorite is obedience. My 5 year old Pembroke Welsh Corgi male exhibits most symptoms of AD/HD. I have tried all the other calming holistics, but none really worked for him and lasted. Doc Ackerman's Herbal Nerve & Anxiety formula has really helped him to focus on the exercises and has kept him calm in the ring so that he can pay attention to me, hear my commands and can actually wait for me to give him the signal. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

Our dog is nervous and skittish over every little thing-wind, clouds etc., so, we use this product every day. The "Vet" gave him something that made him walk into walls! This product is safe where he can function every day and doesn't have that anxiety panting and shaking all the time. His appetite is even better now because he is so relaxed. Please don't ever stop making this product.

Cool and Calm Canine!
By Suree
from Cortez, CO
both of my dogs, age 15 and 6, love this product. They are both rescue dogs with their own issues, and this seems to keep them calm and secure. Plus, they really act like they like the taste--I haven't tried it, but I'm willing to go with their taste test!
Does more than it says!

I do rescue and have a multi cat home. I have a few cats that are very high energy and with a mulit care cat home this keeps the peace in my house with my one peace. I use this on one cat which works well for him takes the edge off with out using prescription drugs. One thing that is great it has no taste so there there is never a problem with a cat that can pick out meds flavors in food!
it really works

Bumble and bumble Styling Lotion
Alyssa K.United StatesHairBlondeNormal HairMy Go To ProductThis stuff is amazing. It really helps smooth my hair and give it that polished look with minimal effort. I just spritz it on before I blow dry and my hair is good to go.posted Jul 4, 2011Link to this post
KHairLight BrownFine or Thin HairNot Prep!I mistakenly bought this instead of bumble & bumble's Prep spray, which I love. This stuff adds great volume, but it also gives me the frizzies, and enhances my natural curl despite all my efforts with blow-drier and round brush.posted May 22, 2011Link to this post
EricaToronto, OntarioHairAuburnDry HairCurly HairColor Treated HairNothing Special...This product is not what I expected. The nozzle on the bottle does not spray your hair evenily and ends up soaking parts of your hair. The product itself was nothing worth writing home about, it did not de-frizz or make my hair smooth although it probably protected my hair from heat damage.posted Feb 24, 2011Link to this post
KalenHairBlondeNormal HairFine or Thin HairAmazingness!I have been using this for about 6 months prior to straightening my hair. I do not blow dry my, but I do use my flat iron on average 4 times a week. Before using B & B styling lotion my hair would get dry and have split ends easily, but now my hair seems to be health and manageable, which is great since I would love to grow my hair super long. It is currently about 5 inches or so below my shoulder right now. I love the sent...it smells like honey to me. I would purchase this again.posted Jan 12, 2011Link to this post
AmandaEhh..take It Or Leave It!I usually love B&B products. A hair stylist at the salon I go to suggested this product and I feel like I wasted money. After I use it my hair feels drier and it's hard to straighten after I use it. Don't think I'll buy it again, still have over half a bottle left.posted Jun 3, 2010Link to this post
LanieNot Sure If It Is Money Well SpentI have never spent this much for a styling product. I read the reviews, have a new layered haircut, and decided to give it a try. The big issue is I cannot get the sprayer to work. It just leaks out the sides of the cap. I called the B&B company and they said to rinse out the nozzle. I will do this and if I can get the product to actually spray out where I direct it, will write another review. If it does not work, I will be sending the product back.posted Apr 4, 2010Link to this post
AmbreyGreat Product!This product helps my fine hair to have more body & volume, making it nice & soft as well. I think it is well worth the money, but the only problem is that it doesn't keeping my hair as...together...as I'd like. I still get flyaways so I apply a smoothing creme too. But still -- great stuff here folks!posted Mar 28, 2010Link to this post
ShellySeattleWow, I Love This Stuff!I tried this styling lotion for the first time and I love it. I use it before blow drying my hair. I dry my hair with the blow dryer and my brush and the curl stays in a lot longer than any other styling lotion I have used in the past. It is not heavy on the hair ( I have fine hair and it doesn't weigh my hair down) and leaves your hair shiny unlike most other styling lotions. I love it!posted Mar 5, 2010Link to this post
