Sebastian Errazuriz's Opera Fireplace: Modern, Unique, Exquisite
Conceptual artist Sebastian Errazuriz presented his new concept of an Opera Fireplace. The limited edition fireplace was carved out of 600 pounds of Italian marble, evoking a small scale opera stage. All the details – hanging curtains, side stairs or the actual stage – were created to not only look artistic, but also be fully functional. This opera fireplace can be installed in any residence provided that the clients have an eye for detail and an open mind. A scaffolding structure and figurine, hand-carved from maple, complete the artistic interior space of the fireplace. The artist needed to work on paper before the concept took shape in real life, so numerous sketches created the path that led to the construction of the Opera Fireplace. Detailed work on the marble was undertaken by the artist and two marble craftsmen in Brooklyn, not to mention the wooden structures that took over two weeks each to finish. How would you feel if you had one of these in your home?

dream meaning in hindi
Dream Meaning or interpretation is one of the unique and amazing app which gives the meaning of your dream in HIndi Language.
Find the interpretation of the most common and uncommon dreams such as flying, running, falling, escaping, teeth, etc..
Symbols are the language of dreams. A symbol can invoke a feeling or an idea and often has a much more profound and deeper meaning that any one word can convey.
At the same time, these symbols can leave you confused and wondering what that dream was all about.
TotemBuddy The Lucid Dream App
Your Dream Totem - Your totem is a combination of an image and background, that you pick! The totem can be changed as frequently as you desire. However, it's recommended that you do use the same totem so you'd recognize if your totem changes in your dreams.
Your Dream Diary - Your dream diary is a place where you can store your dreams (lucid or not) and share them with friends and family!
How to achieve lucid dreaming with the app:
Check your personal totem on the app frequently, the more the better! By looking at the totem it will act as a "reality check" that you are awake. When you are sleeping your brain will subconsciously try and look at the totem on your phone. Instead you'll see something that does not look like your totem. This is when you'll be aware that you're in fact dreaming and not awake! Now you are in the act of lucid dreaming!
The power of lucid dreaming now at your fingertips. Become aware of your dreams. Take control of your dreams. Totem Buddy.

Funf Journal
This application was originally developed by the Human Dynamics research group at the MIT Media Lab, and is currently maintained by the Behavio team. Funf Journal leverages our experience in developing and deploying social and behavioral sensing applications for mobile devices.
Important Note: Funf Journal is still in early development stages ("alpha").
This app is built to collect your personal data so that you can analyze it. An example analysis can be found at http://funf.org/journal.html
Detailed description:
Funf Journal allows the user or researcher to configure data collection parameters for over 30 different built-in data probes, including all phone sensors, as well as additional data types and high-level probes that generate inferences and new data based on the output of sensor data. The app supports importing and exporting of probe configurations, as well as remote configurations (with user permission).
Based on the configuration, the probe data is automatically collected as the phone is used during a user's everyday life. The data is securely stored on the phone in an encrypted format (you will be asked to select the encryption password when the app is first launched).
The data can be extracted from the phone in one of several ways - by manually exporting it via email or any other Android service that supports file transfer, by manually copying it out of the device's memory card, or by setting up a server and configuring Funf to automatically upload the data to it - and if Internet access is not available, the app will accumulate data on the device's memory card and wait until it is back online. When a server link is set up, the data collection configuration could also be performed remotely - the app will check the server for new configuration instructions for download.
Once the data is extracted from the phone, we provide a set of desktop utilities that allow decryption of the data, demonstrate some examples of visualizing and looking into the collected data, and also produce a clean database (in SQLite format) that you can use for further analyzing and exploring your data as well as for importing data into other applications or services.
Funf Journal is built using the Funf open source sensing framework, which can be extended by developers and used to quickly build new applications that make efficient use of sensor information and other data rich features.
IMPORTANT NOTE: All of the collected data is in your domain - your Android device, and wherever you might choose to export your data to. You alone have access to it and decide what is done with it. We have no access to any of the data.

GRE Flashcards
☞ 1000 vocab words picked by an expert GRE tutor
☞ Definitions and example sentences for every word
☞ Decks for every difficulty level
☞ Track your progress as you study
☞ Smart algorithm focuses your practice for efficient learning
This app gives you free access to all of Magoosh's GRE flash cards. Sign in with a Magoosh account (or create a new one) to save your progress to the web. You can continue your practice online at http://gre.magoosh.com/flashcards/vocabulary
Written by GRE experts
The entire GRE wordlist is selected and defined with usage examples by Magoosh's expert GRE tutors, led by Chris Lele. He has been teaching the GRE for more than 10 years, runs a popular vocabulary series on YouTube and he's also written an eBook on vocabulary. He is unbeatable in Scrabble, or any other word game for that matter.
Review that really sticks
Academic research has found that memories are formed by repeated exposure to new information, so Magoosh's flashcard app uses a spaced repetition system. Words you are learning will reappear frequently (occurring less frequently the better you know them) and words you already know won't be repeated. The GRE word list is also culled to only 1000 so that you don't waste time learning unimportant words.
"I really like the way the words appear and the simple interface to show progress of the user. You guys have put good use of algorithms so one comes out learning the words well. The best flashcard app to date." - Arif
"I was able to learn more words in the 4th week by using your flash card app than I learnt over the previous 3 weeks using Barron's 1100." - Sai

★ Capture thoughts and ideas as you constrain yourself to very short "micro" entries.
★ Want an idea for something to write about? Hit the prompt button ("!") and get a short suggestion.
If you want a fully featured note App, with online sync and so on, I personally recommend Evernote. However, if you want a simple, easy to use App which forces you to be concise and which allows you to quickly share journal entries/notes via Twitter, SMS and so on, then microJournal is ideal.
Using microJournal

☆ Export and import to and from SD card to allow you to backup/restore your entries.

Clean and polished with an ephemeral presence, ending with a generously fruity finish that leaves a touch of heat in its wake. Reviewed August 13, 2011

Saying Goodbye to Picnik
By Call Her Happy on January 31, 2012
I must have jinxed it. After writing a tutorial for one of my favorite sites, Google decided to buy it and shut it down. That's right, people. Google is getting rid of Picnik. For those of you unfamiliar, Picnik is a free web-based photo-editing site that can be upgraded to a premium account. Picnik offers myriad options for effects, text, stickers, and more. The best part? It is so incredibly easy to create fun and stylish photos right from your computer. But, don't get too excited. Picnik is slated to be closed on April 19, 2012.

"Why would Google do such a thing," you may ask? Greed, my friends. Greed. Google has purchased my beloved Picnik and is transferring a few of its incredibly awesome and addicting features to its less than popular social media site, Google Plus. Picnik's cult following has accused Google of stiff arming people into a social media experience that they just do not want. I have to say, I agree with this sentiment.
Between texting, emails, Twitter, Pinterest and, of course, the powerhouse that is Facebook, who needs another social media outlet? Google, I think I can speak for the masses when I say that we don't need no stinkin' Google Plus. Concentrate your efforts elsewhere instead of trying to capitalize on the social media train. But, let me just ask you this, Google: What's next? Blogger? Are you going to take that too? Because all I can hear right now is a slow, rising chant that sounds a lot like, "wordpress, Wordpress, WOrdpress, WORdpress, WORDpress!" But, let's not get me too fired on my issues with Google lately. That's another post entirely.
Anyway, with Picnik's impending doom on the horizon, what are your options?
1. If you can't beat 'em, join Google Plus. If their plan is to take over the world, it might just be working.
2. Download your photos from Picnik using their Takeout service. Picnik will send your photos to you via email in a compressed file. You will have until April 19, 2012 to retrieve them.
3. Enjoy Picnik while it lasts. All users now have access to premium accounts, and anyone with an active premium account will be refunded in full.
4. Join FotoFlex. I have been emailing the creator of this site, and we have been sharing ideas on how they can enhance their site and take in all of the poor, lost Picnik souls. I am extremely excited about the willingness of this site to take my ideas into consideration! Expect a tutorial on this site.
5. Make some noise and tell Google just what you think about their decision.
So, what are your thoughts on Picnik's closing? What do you plan to do with your photos?

Reasonable Religion
How Christianity Loomed Behind the Success of the West
WACO, Texas, JAN. 17, 2006 (Zenit) - The conventional wisdom that Western success depended on overcoming religious barriers to progress is "utter nonsense," says the author of a new book. Rodney Stark defends this thesis in "The Victory of Reason: How Christianity Led to Freedom, Capitalism, and Western Success" (Random House).
Stark, a professor of social sciences at Baylor University, maintains that, in contrast to other beliefs that emphasize mystery and intuition, Christian theology privileges reason. This factor -- not geography, a more productive agricultural system, or the Protestant Reformation -- is behind the rise of the West, he argues.
The author observes that this view contrasts with the position of many 20th-century Western intellectuals. They maintained that the West surged ahead of other cultures precisely to the degree that it overcame religious barriers to progress. What credit they do give to religion was limited to acknowledging Protestantism's contribution, as if the previous 15 centuries of Christianity were of little import, says Stark.
In a chapter on the union between reason and theology in Christianity, Stark lays out why he disagrees with these intellectuals. The rise of the West, he contends, was based on four primary victories of reason:
-- Faith in progress within Christian theology;
-- The transmission of this faith in progress into technical and organization innovations, many of them fostered by monasteries;
-- Reason informed political theory and practice, allowing personal freedom;
-- Reason was applied to commerce, resulting in the development of capitalism.
A gift of God
From the first centuries of Christianity the Fathers of the Church taught that reason was a gift from God and the means for increasing understanding of Scripture and Revelation. Eastern religions, by contrast, lacked the figure of a conscious, all-powerful God who could be the object of theological reflection.
Judaism and Islam did have the concept of a God sufficient to sustain theology. But within these religions the tendency was toward a constructionist approach that conceived scripture as something to be understood and applied, not as the basis for further inquiry.
Christianity sees God as a rational being and the universe as created by him. Thus, a rational structure awaits human comprehension. And rising to the challenge have been theologians in the Catholic Church, who over the centuries engaged in careful reasoning that led to the development of Christian doctrine. Leading thinkers such as Augustine and Thomas Aquinas, Stark explains, celebrated the use of reason as a means to gain insight into divine intentions.
So when the scientific revolution of the 16th century came along, it was not a sudden eruption of secular thinking. Rather, it stemmed from centuries of systematic progress by medieval Scholastic thinkers, and it was sustained by the 12th-century Christian invention, the universities.
Medieval progress
Stark dedicates a chapter to exploding the idea of the "Dark Ages." Long before the Renaissance and the Enlightenment came about, European science and technology had long surpassed the rest of the world. The idea that medieval times were a period of stagnation "is a hoax originated by antireligious, and bitterly anti-Catholic, eighteenth-century intellectuals," writes Stark.
It was in these centuries that water and wind power were extensively developed, allowing for enormous advances in the manufacture of goods. And notable advances in agricultural technology increased yields that enabled the feeding of towns and cities.
Far from opposing such technical advances, Christianity welcomed and promoted them. By contrast, both the Ottoman Empire and China opposed the construction of mechanical clocks, for example.
Nor did economic activity have to wait for Protestantism in order to flourish, Stark contends. The monastic orders created a sort of proto-capitalism. Spurred by increases in productivity due to technological advances, the monasteries led the trend away from a subsistence economy, toward a system of specialization and trade. In turn, this facilitated the rise of a cash economy, as opposed to barter, and the creation of credit and moneylending.
Monasteries also developed a work ethic and an appreciation for the value of economic endeavor -- long before the advent of Protestantism.
Moreover, Christian (i.e., Catholic) theologians refined ideas in relation to the charging of interest and the just prices of goods -- elements essential to the development of capitalism. Stark also devotes ample space to outlining the development of capitalism in the Italian city-states, which spurred flourishing economies ...

AbstractDESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Improved signal to noise ratio (SNR) and ease of use for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) apparatus are needed to improve image quality and throughput in high-field MRI in research using small animal models. While linear-polarization (LP) mouse imaging has been demonstrated in a 500 MHz (11.7 T) vertical-bore magnet, available apparatus for vertical-bore magnets above 300 MHz is poorly suited for use with the physiologically monitored mouse or juvenile rat. Hence, most researchers prefer to use horizontal bore magnets, which are not widely available above 200 MHz and unavailable above 500 MHz. Prior work has demonstrated the unique contributions possible from our proprietary simulation software and patented coil technologies for both advanced gradients and circular-polarization (CP) MRI RF coils. We denote our rf coils "litz.cages", as they embody both paralleled conductor elements with insulated crossovers similar to that in our prior "ritz coil" technology and capacitively segmented phase shifts with four-point drive to achieve highly stable circular polarization. The litzcage has demonstrated order-of-magnitude improvement in tunability (ability to tune and match efficiently over a wide range of sample loading conditions). The proposed 24 mm 750 MHz RF coil is expected to provide a factor of 6 increases in SNR compared to the CP 200 MHz horizontal case, or a factor of 2.5 gains in SNR compared to the LP 500 MHz case. Our prior work has also established some essential requirements for rapid and convenient handling of physiologically monitored small animals in horizontal-bore magnets. The Phase I effort will also develop and construct a novel high-performance, water-cooled gradient coil of 47 mm bore compatible with 60 G/cm pulsed gradients at 19 T for use with the mouse RF coil and animal handling system. Field-testing of the Phase 1 750 MHz apparatus will begin early in Phase II at the Advanced MR Imaging and Spectroscopy Facility, McKnight Brain Institute, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL. The primary objectives are to achieve substantial improvements in resolution, convenience, and cost effectiveness for small-animal imaging in existing high-field vertical-bore magnets.

SI.com (Jaffe): Jose Fernandez's Tommy John tale takes an unsettling turn
I think Jaffe's thesis here (Fernandez self-sabotaged and may have potentially destroyed his career) is rather overstated, but still…has pitching hurt ever worked out well for anyone except Sandy Koufax and Curt Schilling?

The melodramatic quote from Fernandez's "personal pitching coach" Orlando Chinea2. Bhaakon Posted: May 21, 2014 at 07:02 PM (#4711146)
really deserves to become an "Ichiro could / Ty Cobb could .... if he wanted to" bit.
Also, I know Fernandez is a Marlin and has to deal with Loria but why in the world is he talking to his lawyer after every game?
The only thing "unsettling" here is that Fernandez seems to have surrounded himself with idiots. The lawyer spouts some incredibly weak hindsight 'analysis', and the personal pitching coach declaring "I could fix him with 6 weeks of rehab" sounds positively Mike Marshall-esque. It's hard to make the Marlins FO look reasonable, but these clowns have managed to do so.3. Leroy Kincaid Posted: May 21, 2014 at 08:05 PM (#4711165)

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who immediately glommed onto the personal pitching coach's comments. That Fernandez has been working with a coach since he was 15 (smack in the middle of what is probably going to prove the most dangerous injury nexus) who thinks he can heal a Tommy John/UCL injury with a couple weeks of rehab is the biggest red flag in the article.5.

Who would have thought Fernandez is the least flaky member of his entourage?6. Howie Menckel Posted: May 21, 2014 at 09:15 PM (#4711201)
"positively Mike Marshall-esque."7. haggard Posted: May 21, 2014 at 09:22 PM (#4711202)
well, at least that guy once threw a total of 387 IP over a 2-year span, all in relief, going 29-23 with 52 SV.
I was a teenager then, and it's going to be a fun part of old age to be able to tell people that yeah, I saw that guy pitch. He debuted before the leagues even had divisions, pitched for the "Ball Four" Seattle Pilots, threw a zillion pitches, and was still going when the 1981 strike split-season lunacy ended.
I'd also note that final season was with the Mets, but that's where all careers go to die.

Fun for you.
lol9. theboyqueen Posted: May 21, 2014 at 11:21 PM (#4711262)
"After the game, we spoke as we always do. Jose was concerned about his arm. Despite many exchanges on the subject in the days that followed, he felt that with the Marlins regaining first place in the division, he could not let his team down. Apparently the injury was worse than he believed. In San Diego in the third inning, he suffered a traumatic event, tossed a couple of more innings and the rest is history."
Who the hell speaks with their lawyer every day? And what was stopping this dumbass lawyer from saying something to the team about this BEFORE Fernandez got hurt, if the thesis here is that somehow pitching through this thigh injury caused his UCL tear?
That said, this article is some pretty flaccid muckraking, at best.
He debuted before the leagues even had divisions, pitched for the "Ball Four" Seattle Pilots, threw a zillion pitches, and was still going when the 1981 strike split-season lunacy ended.
But, for Mike Marshall, the lunacy was just beginning.
I know health and all that stuff comes first for some people. For me, my team comes first. That's who I am.... But this is my team and I give my life to my team.
This kid REALLY does not know Jeff Loria and Company. That loyalty will almost certainly not be returned.
I am sure Loria and Company is not who he is referring to.13. bunyon Posted: May 22, 2014 at 07:50 AM (#4711324)
I think that is a noble attitude (team first) and I admire it. But it's also the (fairly typical) short horizon thinking of a 21 year old. Losing your star pitcher for a year and a half is much worse than losing him for six weeks. That assumes a lot of facts not in evidence but you see this a lot: "must play hurt for the good of the team". No, playing hurt (or, injured if you will) generally hurts the team. There are rare exceptions that make it seem glorious but they're exceptions.14. Fancy Pants Handles lap changes with class Posted: May 22, 2014 at 08:49 AM (#4711340)
I was a teenager then, and it's going to be a fun part of old age to be able to tell people that yeah, I saw that guy pitch.
We can't bust heads like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to tell 'em stories that don't go anywhere - like the time I caught the subway over to Citi Field. I needed to watch Mike Marshall pitch, so, I decided to go to Shea, which is what they called Citi Field in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the subway cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. "Give me five bees for a quarter," you'd say.
Now where were we? Oh yeah: the important thing was I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. They didn't have white onions because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones...
Who the hell speaks with their lawyer every day?

1855 Gem Proof Gold Dollar, Ex: Starr1855 G$1 PR65 PCGS. Ex: Starr. The story of the short and ill-fated Type Two gold dollar is really a story of miscalculation on the part of Mint Engraver James Longacre. When redesigning the coin in 1854, he chose a variant of the three dollar gold piece. This is a design that Longacre repeated throughout most of his career and included not only the three dollar and Type Three gold dollars, but also included such diverse pieces as the double eagle, the Indian Head cent, the three cent nickel, several pattern nickels, and finally the pattern eagles from 1868 that he engraved only a few months before his death. Longacre's miscalculation was twofold. First, he designed Liberty's head in high relief, and second, he overestimated the power of the coining presses then in use. These miscalculations had varying effects, depending upon where the coins were struck. Pieces minted in the Philadelphia facility generally showed at least some weakness in the center of the obverse on Liberty's hair, and the corresponding area on the reverse: the LL in DOLLAR and the middle digits of the date. However, the striking definition on coins produced in Charlotte and Dahlonega was even more unsatisfactory, with only a short time in circulation necessary to unduly wear down the design elements. Clearly, something had to be done, and the design was changed again in 1856.
The dies for the Type Two gold dollar were completely hubbed except for the dates and mintmarks, which had to be entered by hand, as usual. As a result, the proofs produced the previous year and also in 1855, do not show evidence of these miscalculations. The only weakness on this coin is on the 8 in the date (a diagnostic of all known 1855 proofs), which is most likely from that digit having been punched too shallowly into the die. To call this coin "rare" does not really convey its true elusiveness. Only eight pieces have been positively pedigreed and two of those are permanently impounded, one in the Smithsonian and the other in the ANS holdings. With thanks to David Akers for his research that helped straighten out the pedigrees of the eight known examples, we would like to reproduce his roster of known specimens:
1. Smithsonian Institution.
2. ANS, J.P. Morgan.
3. John Jay Pittman. Ex: Thomas Melish, lot 1743; William H. Woodin, lot 852; Lorin G. Parmelee, lot 1255.
4. Harold Bareford, lot 29. Ex: "Memorable," lot 9; "World's Greatest Collection," lot 9; John Story Jenks, lot 5822.
5. Norman Stack. Sold with his type set in 1990. In the Stack Collection since at least 1971, per Harvey Stack.
6. Ed Trompeter, lot 1. Ex: Louis Eliasberg, Sr., lot 26; John H. Clapp; Elmer Sears (1909).
7. Mocatta Metals. Purchased privately in 1975.
8. Floyd T. Starr, the present specimen. Probably Ex: George H. Hall, lot 1678; J.F. Bell, lot 9.
The most recent appearance at public auction of a proof 1855 was in Akers' offering of the Pittman Collection in 1997. Glancing over the scant offerings in our auction archives gives one the impression that one of these proofs is offered on average every 8-10 years.
This fabulous coin is from the landmark collection assembled by Floyd Starr. The fields show full mirrored flash with only the slightest hairlines present. The devices are noticeably frosted and present an impressive cameo appearance against the illimitable depths of reflectivity in the fields. A couple of shallow planchet flakes are located below the F in OF, and serve as positive pedigree identifiers of this coin. As indicated in the Starr catalog, the upper leaves on the wreath on the reverse show "full flash," obviously from overvigorous polishing of the die. Rich reddish-golden color completes the physical description of this rarity. We cannot overemphasize the importance of this offering, and It will be interesting to see how the market values this piece. When it was last sold in 1992, this coin brought $82,500. Five years later, the Pittman coin, which is a PR66, realized $121,000. Now, eight years have passed and we are in the midst of a very strong collector-based boom in the coin market. It will be very interesting to see how this piece will be valued by bidders at this memorable FUN Sale.

From: Charleston, SC
Region: Southeast
Topic: Invasive Plants, Poisonous Plants, Problem Plants
Title: Getting rid of poison ivy
Answered by: Nan Hampton
QUESTION:Dear Mr Smarty Plants, Likewise I also have a shady area in my yard with overgrowth of poison ivy. It borders a small duck pond and we have a Golden Retriever. I too would like to plant soon afterwards but the soil is very poor. We live near Charleston, SC so our soil is very sandy. What is the answer?
Mr. Smarty Plants is not absolutely sure what the question is, but I am assuming you want to know how to get rid of the poison ivy and what to plant in its spot when it's gone.
Poison ivy is a pesky problem especially if your golden retriever walks through it and comes in the house to be petted with the irritating oil on his/her fur. Since many people are sensitive, some severely, to poison ivy (Toxicodendron spp.), it is not an easy plant to control. If you have a small amount of poison ivy, the sooner you start the easier it will be to control it. The method you use to control it will depend on your sensitivity to the urushiol oil from the plant that causes the itching. If you know that you are sensitive to the urushiol, you might be wise to hire someone who is not sensitive to remove the plants since the most ecologically friendly method for eliminating them is to pull them out of the ground. Pulling them up should include getting as much of the root system out of the ground as possible. The plants will come out of the ground easier if the ground is wet. You (or the person who is removing the plants), even if you believe you are not sensitive to urushiol oil, should protect yourself well while doing this. You should wear gloves, long sleeves, long pants, and boots or shoes with socks. To protect yourself even more you can put your gloved hand in a plastic bag before you grasp the plant to pull it out of the ground. As the plant is pulled out of the ground, the plastic bag can be pulled over the plant to cover it. After you have disposed of the secured plastic bags of plants in the trash, you should thoroughly wash all clothing and yourself. If the plants resprout from any roots that were not removed, you will need to repeat the procedure and try to dig the roots out of the ground. If you are dealing with a large amount of poison ivy to remove, pulling it up may not be practical. In such a case, cutting it near to the ground with long-handled clippers or equivalent device would be better. Shoots will still sprout from the roots, but continued cutting of the shoots should result in starving and killing the roots. It is not recommended to mow the plants since this would shred the plant releasing more of the oil and spreading it everywhere a cut piece is deposited. Burning is also not recommended since the windborn ash from the burning will contain the oil. Tilling the plants under will get rid of the immediate problem but unless the roots are removed, the plants will resprout. Incidentally, if your poison ivy is a vine that has made its way up into a tree, you would be better off severing the vine from the roots in the wintertime when the plant is dormant and the leaves have fallen. Otherwise, you are going to have a tree full of rather unsightly dead poison ivy leaves.
Although we do not generally recommend using herbicides, in the case of a plant that causes severe physical distress like poison ivy, there are herbicides that can be applied if done in a judicious manner. After removing the plants and as much of the roots as possible, you could treat regrowth by painting small amounts of herbicide on sprouting leaves. Painting restricts the herbicide to the plants you want to kill and not to nearby desirable plants. It also eliminates the amount of herbicide you are releasing into the environment. You can read about appropriate herbicides and other methods of control of poison ivy in articles prepared by the Ohio State University Extension Service and the Michigan State University Extension Service.
If you have bare skin that has been exposed directly to poison ivy plants, washing with soap and cool water should remove most of the urushiol. Avoid warm water since it may help the oil penetrate the skin. There are products that reportedly remove the urushiol oil from the skin after exposure.
Now, for what to plant there, you can go to our Recommended Species page and select South Carolina from the map or the pull-down menu to get a list of commercially available native plants recommended for South Carolina. You can then use the NARROW YOUR SEARCH option to select for various characteristics that your area requires, e.g., select "Shade -Less than 2 hours of sun per day" under light requirement.
Here are some possibilites for small trees or shrubs:
Ceanothus americanus (New Jersey tea)
Cornus florida (flowering dogwood)
Hypericum prolificum (shrubby St. Johnswort)
Ptelea trifoliata (common hoptree)
Here are some herbaceous plants:
Aquilegia canadensis (red columbine)
Lobelia cardinalis (cardinalflower)
Mertensia virginica (Virginia bluebells)
Rudbeckia laciniata (cutleaf coneflower)
There are many more on the list for you to consider.
