Favorite thing: Long a haunt for the Nez Perce Indians, now the Wallowas are protected as the Eagle Cap Wilderness Area. This is such a grand region to wander about in, whether you are fishing, hiking, climbing, riding or simply taking the dog for a walk.
Long meadows in the summer, beckon you to stay longer. In late spring, backcountry skiers have their own version of paradise.
- Hiking and Walking
- Horse Riding
- Camping
Favorite thing: The mountain tops are superb and the fishing great, but all over the landscape, wildflowers further enlighten the landscape. The flowers bring butterflies and bees of all sorts and color combinations. It is an amazing sight to have the opportunity to wander amongst.

Fishtrap Inc.
Favorite thing: Wallowa County is extremely lucky to be the home of a very successful nonprofit organization that promotes literary arts.
Fishtrap Inc. was founded about 15 years ago to host a summer writers workshop called Fishtrap Gathering at Wallowa Lake, which involved western writers and eastern publishers.
It was very successful and is still held around a theme every July; more about exploring ideas than the nuts and bolts of writing, though the panelists also give workshops during the week preceding the Gathering. Many of the Northwest's (and beyond) best and most well-known authors writers have taken part. Some up-and-coming writers who won fellowships have gone on to become published authors.
Fishtrap has grown and grown, and bought it's own house in Enterprise as a home base.
It now puts on a Winter Fishtrap and a Spring Lecture Series every year,sponsors a writer-in-resident in the schools who also gives a community workshop, hosts a writers retreat, has a storytelling group and story hour on the radio, and hosts numerous educational presentations and book readings/signings during the year. (And more)
Fishtrap adds immensely to the cultural richness of Wallowa County, which is very unusual for an isolated community our size.

Terminal Gravity microbrewery
Favorite thing: Terminal Gravity was founded in about 1996 by a couple of guys (brother-in-laws) moving here from the Portland area with their families, and it has been a spectacular success story, putting us on the map in terms of great beer in a state where microbrews are cherished.
Just this year they expanded and the brewery's most popular brew -- India Pale Ale (IPA) -- is now offered in bottles.
The company ships to distributors in Eugene, Portland and La Grande, which are making IPA available to buyers outside the county. While the company has shipped kegs west for some time, the bottled beer is a new treat for fans.
There's also a popular Terminal Gravity pub in a great location on the edge of Enterprise adjacent to the brewery that serves great food. It also hosts musical groups, belly dancers and other performers at times.
Fondest memory: Terminal Gravity is located six miles west of Joseph in Enterprise: 803 School St., 541-426-0158.
Here's a few reviews of Terminal Gravity I found on a site called www.pubcrawler.com:
"Great beer. Small menu executed well with fresh ingredients. Best element is the friendliness of this small town. It's like having an excellent brewer in your tree house."
"The beer is some of the best in Oregon, which is the best in the country. While the menu is small, all the food is inventive, fresh and tasty. But what puts this place over the top is the atmosphere -- very friendly people, great details like hand blown glasses and a canine greeter, and an upstairs rumpus room with big screen TV. You must go there."
"A beer lovers' paradise among a stunning setting. The IPA is outstanding."
"My husband and I live in Eugene and have to travel far to actually visit the brewery. However, we are fortunate that so many places in Eugene carry the IPA!! My favorite!!"

Birds and wildlife
Favorite thing: There's lots of wildlife around Joseph. In fact I almost hit a couble of deer while driving up Main St. last week.
I enjoy watching birds from my windows, including a flock of curious quail, but I'm not a real birder. Every December a group of those who are really into it take part in Christmas bird count, under the auspices of the Audobon Society.
Hawks and bald eagles are especially common in Wallowa County, and there are big elk herds in some places. The Natural Conservancy owns a big piece of property called the Zumwalt Prairie here (lots of raptors and elk).
There are also mountain sheep and goats, mainly re-introduced in the last 25 years from other areas. However, you probably won't see them unless you are hiking in the wilderness or maybe Hells Canyon National Recreation area.

"Little Switzerland of America"
Favorite thing: The Joseph area -- especially Wallowa Lake -- has the nickname "Little Switzerland of America" and even people from Europe say the mountains do remind them of Switzerland.
In 1992 Switzerland set about collecting rocks from places around the world with nicknames like "Little Switzerland". In a ceremony at Wallowa Lake in June, 1992, a Swiss diplomat accepted a moraine granite boulder on his country's behalf.
It was designed to be included in a monument in Bern to international friendship, called "The Balance of Things".
It consists of five groupings of boulders from 160 locations around the world.
Someday I would like to visit that monument. Has anyone seen it?
Since that time there is a sign near the entrance to Wallowa Lake State Park that points to Switzerland and gives the mileage from that country, 5,237 miles.
- Hiking and Walking
- Family Travel
- Camping
Hurricane Ck. Campground
Favorite thing: About five miles outside Joseph there is a little campground next to Hurricane Creek that I went tent camping with my kids, and sometimes with friends, numerous times over the years. It was close enough that if I had to go grab a photo for the paper during the weekend I was still close enough to do so, but it was still a great place to camp.
No water except the fast moving creek, a pit toilet, fire pit, picnic table -- the basics.
I think there may be a small fee now (it used to be free, but it's been several years since I've camped there.)
Fondest memory: Though I know the place lost its charm for the kids as they got older, I know they have many campground memories of Hurricane Creek. We also went there sometime just to get out and walk along the creek or hunt for mushrooms.
It will always be special to me, and who knows, someday they may bring their own children back to Joseph to camp on Hurricane Creek.
It's a beautiful place, easy to get to, and a couple more miles up the road there's a trailhead into the wilderness.

Summer signing Andreas Cornelius could make his first start for the club after he was named on the bench for the weekend's Barclays Premier League clash at the Cardiff City Stadium.
Defender John Brayford could also be in line to make his debut in place of Matthew Connolly.
Accrington boss James Beattie will be without forward Danny Webber for cup clash.
The 31-year-old will serve the second of a three-match ban for picking up a red card in his side's 3-0 defeat by Bury.
Midfield duo Will Hatfield and James Gray are pushing for starts and could play some part if Beattie chooses to shuffle his pack ahead of the cup tie.
Experienced defender Nicky Hunt is expected to be sidelined for at least another month with medial crucial ligament damage.

Cryptic Store doesn't support IE8?

Works fine with IE8
I have used IE8 for the C Store many times before IE9 was released. I would check your settings in IE8 to see if that is the problem. I had to walk one of my fleetmates through performing a "reset" of IE8 before he could purchase AT. Its possible that some 3rd party program locked your IE settings (which is what happened to my fleetmate).
Go to Tools => Internet Options and then go to the advanced tab and choose the rest button.

Beatles come together at Grammys, McCartney also stars in Nirvana reunion
Published on Jan 27, 2014 11:50 AM
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The two surviving Beatles, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, came together at the Grammy Awards on Sunday for a rare joint performance coinciding with the 50th anniversary of the British group's breakthrough on American television.
With McCartney at the piano and Starr at his drums, the two played a new song Queenie Eye, a catchy tune that hearkened back to the Beatles' trademark hits. It was only the fourth time they had performed together on stage since a 2002 concert to honour the late George Harrison. John Lennon's widow, Yoko Ono, and son Sean Lennon were in the crowd dancing along.
McCartney, 71, and former members of grunge rock band Nirvana, including Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl, won best rock song for Cut Me Some Slack. "It was magic for me playing with these guys," said McCartney, adding "I found myself in the middle of a Nirvana reunion and I was very happy."
In early awards before the telecast from Los Angeles' Staples Center began, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis swept the rap categories - best rap album, song and performance. Pharrell Williams and Daft Punk picked up the Grammy for best pop/duo group performance for their dance hit Get Lucky.

Maggieknockater (Magh an Fhucadair in Scottish Gaelic) is a hamlet on the A95 road between Craigellachie and Mulben in Scotland in the Moray council area, in the former county of Banffshire.
Until the early 1970s there was large apiary which was well known in the region and has lived on in the Scottish country dance "The Bees of Maggieknockater".[1] The meaning of Maggieknockater is "field of the fuller" or "plain of the hilly ridge" and has nothing to do with a woman called Maggie. At nearby Gauldwell Castle (now only with one partial wall left standing) Mary, Queen of Scots, is reputed to have spent the night. The school was closed in the 1960s and the chapel was turned into a home in the early 1970s. What was once a smithy is now a garage still in the hands of the Maclean family. Maggieknockater formerly had a post office; it opened in June 1876 and closed in 1940.[2]
Maggieknockater is situated in the heart of Scotland's Malt Whisky Trail, situated less than 4 miles from Dufftown, home of the world-famous Glenfiddich Distillery.
Less than two miles heading east along the A95 from Maggieknockater is the site for Moray's most demanding Mountain Biking trails, "The Moray Monster Trails". The trails were regenerated and improved during 2005 and 2006.
Maggieknockater is also becoming famous throughout Moray for the prize winning bull, "Berty Big Baws" and cow, "Beatrice" both who show fine strength and discipline at tea time. Berty and Beatrice are under the proud ownership of Mr Jonathan Scott.

'Mean Canadian' hopes catch total goes north
"Plus, I really liked the idea of playing in San Diego and I really like the direction the program is heading under Coach (Chuck) Long."
Miller said Colorado State, Washington State and Air Force also offered scholarships, with the decision ultimately coming down to the Aztecs and Rams.
Though Miller said he may still attend some college games in the Denver area this fall, he termed his commitment "a solid verbal." He plans to take his official visit at the Aztecs' Sept. 22 home opener against Portland State.
Miller has played both guard and center at Mullen.
Aztecs notes
Head coach Chuck Long missed his third consecutive day of practice Sunday as he continues to visit his ill father, Charles, in the Chicago area. After speaking to the coach on Sunday morning, assistant head coach Bob Elliott said Long sounded upbeat and expected to return to the team today. … QB Kevin O'Connell was back at practice after missing Saturday's workout because of a death in the family.

U.S. improving cyber response plans
Thursday - 6/5/2014, 8:45am EDT
USCYBERCOM, according to testimony before Congress, is working on several elements to defend against cyber attacks. Those elements include tactics, techniques, and procedures, as well as policies and organizations. Officials say that also means turning plans into doctrine and training - and building a system that our Combatant Commanders can think, plan, and integrate cyber capabilities as they would capabilities in the air, land and sea domains. Cyber is different from all of them because it's mostly invisible.

2015 Devinci Wilson 27.5 5
1 of 17
wide size
Devinci Global Racing and Dave Weagle have been working together to develop a new version of the Wilson DH bike.
Chances are good that you've seen Steve Smith, Nick Beer, and Mark Wallace testing the new bike on the World Cup circuit.
We were told that this is the 5th version of the prototype, and the result of two years of development. What actually goes to production may be different. Devinci says they wanted to show the development process. Interestingly, the bike was quietly released online in the past few days, which may indicate earlier availability. Three different build kits and a frame only option, all with two colors, can be found online.
Changes include a shorter stroke shock (3.0 instead of 3.5-inches) and 204mm travel from 216mm. Visually, it's easy to see that the shock mount has changed too, moving to the downtube. The rear shock mount has a clevis that allows Devinci to reduce the seat tube hole size, improving stiffness.

The festival hosted over 30 artists from the Philippines, France, the USA and Montreal to showcase "provocative and socially engaged theater."
This was the first time a Filipino group joined the festival.
DF, now on its 20th year, is the resident theater company of De La Salle College of St. Benilde. The college's School of Design and Arts offers theater-related courses such as Technical Theater, Dance, Production Design.
The festival's theme, "Anarchy," allowed for subject matter about persons, ideas and histories of anarchy as well as pieces that portrayed resistance "against all forms of power: state, capitalism, war, racism, homophobia, sexism, salaried work, etc."
"Out at Sea" is described as an "absurd and macabre comedy" where three men on a raft in the middle of the ocean contemplate the notion of "having something to eat" as not a matter of what but whom.
The group performed the English version in Montreal and will stage a Filipino translation by Carlo Pacolor Garcia later this year in Manila.
Major in Multimedia Arts students Paw Castillo and Manjean Faldas play Fat Man and Medium Man, respectively. Major in Consular and Diplomatic Affairs students Ernest Lim plays Thin Man. Teddie Avelino choreographs.
Director Riki Benedicto is reinterpreting the work using the Philippine political landscape as a metaphor.
Benedicto is DF's trainer. He is a member of Tanghalang Pilipino's Actors Company (TP's resident pool of actors) and recently directed "Bakit Wala Nang Nagtatagpo sa Philcoa Oberpas" for TP.
"The characters 'campaign' to each other and have elections [to decide who should be eaten], but there are four ballots even though there are only three characters, so right away there's cheating involved," says Benedicto.
"The Philippines has experienced different forms of government, different colonizers such as Spanish, American and Japanese, and even a dictatorship. Now we are experiencing the so-called 'people-powered' democracy.
"With this kind of political circus going on, we want to ask, 'What's happening to our country? Is it the leaders, the people or the form of government we have that causes our suffering?' The play reflects our current situation: still searching for freedom, still dreaming of a free country."

Many of the women we care for at the Women's speak little or no English.
The Women's is committed to helping you communicate with our staff so that you can make your own decisions about your healthcare. An interpreter makes sure that your diagnosis and treatment are explained in your preferred language so that you can ask questions and understand the information you are given.
The Women's provides experienced interpreters for every hospital clinic and service. We provide assistance with more than 100 community languages. We also provide services for women requiring AUSLAN (Australian Sign Language). Our interpreters understand the importance of interpreting accurately and impartially and keeping all information confidential.
Interpreters are available to all patients at the Women's.
What we do
The Women's provides interpreter services 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
To make sure we meet the needs of as many patients as possible, we:
- have qualified interpreters on our staff for the most frequently spoken languages in our community (Arabic, Mandarin, Cantonese, Vietnamese, Turkish, Greek and Spanish)
- use experienced interpreters from accredited external agencies to provide face to face assistance
- use Auslan interpreters from external agencies but bookings must be made preferably seven days prior to appointment
- use a telephone interpreter service for assistance after hours, and on weekend and public holidays.
Our interpreters specialise in women's health terminology and are familiar with women's health issues and medical treatments.
Information for patients
Family, friends, carers and husbands
Family, friends, carers and husbands are not allowed to be interpreters at appointments.
Please bring your husband, partner, relatives or friends for support at your appointments. However a trained interpreter must be used to ensure that you understand the information, procedures or surgery that are discussed with you. You will be able to ask the health professional questions about your care with the help of the interpreter.
If you have a Medicare Card, the use of the interpreter is free. If you do not have a Medicare card, the interpreter fee will be included in the cost of your appointment at the Women's.
Booking an interpreter
If you want to make sure that an interpreter will be at your first appointment, you can ring us a few days before your appointment and we will check if an interpreter has been booked. If an interpreter has not been booked for you already, we can organise one for you.
You can also request an interpreter if you make an appointment at the hospital yourself.
Cancelling an interpreter
If you are unable to attend your appointment at a clinic, or need to change the time, please contact the clinic as soon as possible so that another appointment can be made for you. Please tell the clinic that an interpreter had been booked for you and they will cancel the booking for the interpreter.
If an interpreter is not available
Whenever an interpreter is not available in the State of Victoria we are able to check in other states of Australia and in a couple of occasions we were able to connect with a telephone interpreter by linking with an overseas Government Department.
Your doctor/GP should inform the Women's that you will need an interpreter for your first visit.

Majority of Drug Addicts Smoked Cigarettes Prior to Beginning Using Other Drugs, Narconon Riverbend Finds
Nearly 70% of recovering addicts surveyed by Narconon Riverbend New Life Retreat smoked cigarettes prior to beginning drug abuse.
Denham Springs, LA (PRWEB) August 11, 2012
Among psychiatric experts, the consensus seems to be that such a thing as an "addictive personality" does not exist. The human psyche is far too complex and the factors involved in addiction too varied, experts say, for the phenomenon to be explained with this simple catch-all. But, there may well be tendencies toward engaging in other addictive behaviors among recovering addicts.
According to a recent survey conducted by Narconon Riverbend, 68.75% of recovering addicts had smoked cigarettes prior to beginning drug use, while 31.25% had not. While the number who had smoked does constitute a majority, it´s not an entirely overwhelming one. This data makes sense, since some of the same "rewards circuits" of the brain are stimulated by smoking tobacco as by abusing many other (illegal) drugs, according to Wikipedia. Smoking causes dopamine and endorphins, both of which are responsible for smoking´s pleasurable sensation, to be released by the brain. These same neurochemicals are the cause of many drugs´ "highs." The mechanisms of addiction to tobacco are similar to those of other drugs as well. When one consumes tobacco frequently enough, the brain compensates by altering one´s natural level of energy or mood. For this reason, smokers feel the need to smoke simply in order to feel "normal" again, according to information from the Canadian Ministry of Health.
As any recovering drug abuser can tell you, it´s this cycle of requiring a "fix" in order to attain a "normal" state which becomes so very hard to break. But returning to genuine normalcy by overcoming addiction is something worth fighting for.
- Narconon Riverbend is a drug rehab in Louisiana. Narconon Riverbend´s survey was conducted on addicts seeking treatment, and, with the sample size used, there is a 12.5% margin of error.

Chancery division of High Court overturns exit consent
The recent judgment of the Chancery Division of the English High Court in Assénagon Asset Management SA v Irish Bank Resolution Corporation Limited (formerly Anglo Irish Bank Corporation Limited), issued on 27 July 2012, struck down an exit consent in a transaction governed by English law. The Anglo Irish judgment is the first time that the legality of exit consents has been tested under English law. While the judgment is subject to appeal, it calls into question the continued efficacy of established restructuring techniques that have used exit consents as a core mechanic and introduces significant uncertainty into the English law-governed bond market.

The slab for distances beyond 15 km, which presently is set at an interval of five km, will also be brought down to three km
Following the recent revision of autorickshaw fare, traffic authorities are all set to hike prepaid auto charges soon.
Apart from revising the fare, authorities are also contemplating a revamp of the distance slabs beyond 15 km.
"Ever since the revision of meter charges, there is a demand to increase the prepaid auto rates. We are holding consultations with all stake holders to revise the fares," Additional CP (Traffic) C.V. Anand said.
Also, the slab for distances beyond 15 km, which presently is set at an interval of five km, will also be brought down to three km.
He also stated that the prepaid autorickshaw initiative at the Secunderabad railway station has been successful.
The facility will also be soon extended to the Mahatma Gandhi Bus Station (MGBS), Jubilee Bus Station (JBS) along with Nampally and Kachiguda railway stations. "There is a popular demand for prepaid auto facility at more places and we are finalising plans to introduce them," he said.
"Commuters prefer prepaid autos as it removes the necessity to haggle with auto drivers after a long journey," he pointed out while claiming that complaints about high fares of prepaid autos have been very few.
Safe for passengers
"It is also safer for passengers as the auto numbers are noted down at the counter itself while issuing the receipt," he added.

Those who recently purchased the Playstation Vita are in for a treat today as Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and NetherRealm Studios have officially confirmed that Mortal Kombat will arrive on Sony's newest handheld May 1, 2012 in North America and May 4, 2012 for those of us in the UK.
The game will feature a new 'Challenge Tower Mode' with over 150 new missions, touchscreen fatalities, X-rays and much more.
The touchscreen fatalities is really the most appealing aspect to a Vita version of the Mortal Kombat series in my eyes. I'm still willing to bet, however, that they'll still manage to be just as complicated to perform as they are in button combo form and will probably cause me to sprain my fingers multiple times.
What do you think? Does Mortal Kombat push you further to getting a Vita or do you still think it's a console that's bound to fail in time?

Manchester United defender Patrice Evra says he is relishing the fight with Alex Buttner for the role of left-back in Sir Alex Ferguson's team. After his form was criticised last season, Evra's position has come under greater scrutiny this year following the arrival of Buttner from Vitesse Arnhem. Evra is unlikely to be dropped at the moment. However, Buttner made a pleasing debut against Wigan earlier this month and is likely to get another chance to impress in Wednesday night's Capital One Cup third-round tie with Newcastle. Yet Evra does not feel under any more pressure because Buttner is breathing down his neck. "Football is like a pyramid," he said. "It is easy to reach the top of the pyramid but to stay there is the hardest part. "It is too easy for people to say that now we have bought another left-back Patrice Evra will have to fight for his place. Patrice Evra has always fought for his place. "If someone is there or not I will fight because you have to respect the shi...

WOW, it's been awhile since I blogging here. I guess ever since Facebook I stopped blogging altogether.
***Possible Spoiler***
About my title, I recently found that the new Linkin Park single, "Burn It Down" could be inspired from the March 2012 hit game Mass Effect 3, especially the first part of the song.
Here it is (ME3 reference in bracket):
The cycle repeated (Reapers' cycle of harvesting)
As explosions broke in the sky (Reapers attacking civilizations and planets)
All that I needed
Was the one thing I couldn't find (Shepard finding The Catalyst)
And you were there at the turn
Waiting to let me know (Prothean VI)
We're building it up (building war assets)
To break it back down (take the fight to the Reapers)
We're building it up
To burn it down
We can't wait
To burn it to the ground
The colors conflicted (The ending)
As the flames, climbed into the clouds
I wanted to fix this (Bioware's extended cut)
But couldn't stop from tearing it down (Still got bashed by fans)
And you were there at the turn
Caught in the burning glow
And I was there at the turn
Waiting to let you know

Author(s): Bassard, Katherine Clay

Publisher: Princeton University Press
This is an eTextbook Learn More
The late eighteenth century witnessed an influx of black women to the slave-trading ports of the American Northeast. The formation of an early African American community, bound together by shared experiences and spiritual values, owed much to these women's voices. The significance of their writings would be profound for all African Americans' sense of their own identity as a people.
Katherine Clay Bassard's book is the first detailed account of pre-Emancipation writings from the period of 1760 to 1863, in light of a developing African American religious culture and emerging free black communities. Her study--which examines the relationship among race, culture, and community--focuses on four women: the poet Phillis Wheatley and poet and essayist Ann Plato, both Congregationalists; and the itinerant preacher Jarena Lee, and Shaker eldress Rebecca Cox Jackson, who, with Lee, had connections with African Methodism.
Together, these women drew on what Bassard calls a "spirituals matrix," which transformed existing literary genres to accommodate the spiritual music and sacred rituals tied to the African diaspora. Bassard's important illumination of these writers resurrects their path-breaking work. They were cocreators, with all black women who followed, of African American intellectual life.

Even winter weather can't stop plant 'fabric' diseases: rust and mildew
Two common ornamental plant diseases which occur during our South Florida winter are guava rust (Puccinia psidii) and downy mildew (Plasmopara viburni). We typically associate fungal diseases with wet and warm conditions, but there are a few pathogens which thrive in our "cooler" winter periods and do fine with just a misting of water.
Downy mildew attacks stressed Awabuki (commonly referred to as mirror-leaf viburnum), a variety of sweet viburnum (Viburnum odoratissimum). This species can be recognized by the green-pepper fragrance when you crush its leaves as well as the big dark green, shiny leaves.
During the winter, downy mildew will move in on weak plants and cause spotting (light green to reddish-brown), yellowing and defoliation. This is a minor disease usually, but it may cause extensive defoliation. Once the hotter days of late spring arrive, the disease tends to dissipate. A key point in control is removal of fallen infected leaves. Get those out of your landscape and do not mix them in with the compost! Make sure the sprinkler system is not directly hitting the foliage as the water will disperse the spores and the disease will consume more of your hedge.
If you feel you need to apply a fungicide, try products labeled for ornamentals, such as Mancozeb or phosphoric-acid based products which are available to homeowners. These products should be reapplied every 10 to 14 days as a preventive. A fairly recent group of fungicides products contain strobililurins and are available to professional landscape maintenance applicators. Fewer applications are needed with these compounds, but they are a little pricey.
Puccinia psidii goes by the name of guava rust and is evident by the rusty-colored spores on new growing tips and young leaves. It is found on Simpson's stopper (Myrcianthes fragrans), Eugenia species, bottlebrush (previously Callistemon now Melaleuca spp.), pimenta dioca (allspice) and rose-apple (Syzygium jambos). One of those Latin names should have made you perk up — melaleuca. Yes, this pathogen attacks our unwanted and overly aggressive invasive punk tree (Melaleuca quinquenervia).
Although this pathogen doesn't seem to slow the melaleuca too much, it causes some dieback as it does with our woody ornamentals in the Myrtaceae family. This fungus appears to be producing new strains which attack plant species it was not known to attack in the past.
Usually we welcome anything that will slow the growth of some of these shrubs. Maybe the rust disease could be considered beneficial, say a fungal pruning disease? If you feel it has gone too far, you may consider fungicides labelled for ornamentals and rust control, such as certain propicanozole and triadimefon products. Or just wait until the heat of summer arrives — already, it seems, here in mid-May — and the this rust pathogen will become less active.
