I always eager to Deliver robust Web Projects and with minimum cost and maximum output in minimum time-frame. I am doing programming since i was in college. I love php because it can do so much, still being light weight and fun to write codes with. One Promise: If I bid on your project, I am serious about it. If I win the bidding, you won't be disappointed. Having worked in many professional settings, it has become a top priority to provide a service I would like to be given myself. In other words, the golden rule dictates what I do in my design services. As a free lancer, I have a few things I do to make sure my service is appreciated. 1) I try to bid on a project only if I can do it. That is, instead of bidding on a $2000 project I won't finish, I would rather take a small $150 one that I will complete within the delivery time. 2) As a web developer, I love Wordpress as a CMS and Cakephp as framework particularly because it has become my CMS and framework of choice over the past two years for several reasons. 3) After I bid on a project, I usually get to work right away. This doesn't mean it is the only thing I do, but I try to deliver as soon as I possibly can for obvious reasons. 4) At the end of the project, once the funds have been released, I send out an invoice. This is to acknowledge the job has been completed successfully and that payment has been received. 5) I like to keep in contact with those I worked for and exchange ideas. In the world of freelancing like any other business, networking is important. I am usually flexible with what I do. However, I like working with people who really know what they expect me to do for them, but hey... anything is possible in freelancing!

Gloria Estefan & More to Be Featured on E! OPEN HOUSE: The Soundtrack of Our Lives, 10/25
El OPEN HOUSE: The Soundtrack of our Lives premieres on WPBT2 on Thursday, October 25, 2012 at 8:00 p.m. Directed by Emmy award-winning filmmaker Joe Cardona, this new documentary offers a vibrant portrait of South Florida in the 1970s and 1980s.
"El Open House is a story that brings all of our cultures together into an eclectic, unique blend. It's a celebration of who we were, who we are and who we aspire to be," says Joe Cardona. The one-hour program explores the social, cultural and musical forces that shaped our region and created its distinct sound.
In the 1960s, Miami became home to thousands of Cuban exiles. As families began to settle in, the first generation of Cubans raised in Miami embraced their adopted culture without forgetting their customs and traditions.
"Music for us was a connection to this new society. Music was the first phase of our integration into American society," says José "Pepe" Campos. In El Open House we see and hear from the artists, the disc jockeys and others who helped to create the flavorful scene. Exclusive interviews with Gloria Estefan, Willy Chirino, Carlos Oliva, Frankie Marcos and Clouds and others reveal the excitement and the energy of those early days as their music forged Miami's identity. "It's like our parents took us, the seedlings, and planted us here and watered us and fed us with Cuban water and Cuban fertilizer and they kept our culture alive," says Estefan.
The program also features artists such as Albita and Amaury Gutierrez who burst into the Miami music scene later. Pitbull fondly reminisces about growing up with a father who listened to Willy Chirino constantly.
The program is named after a unique, cultural phenomenon: the "Open House" parties of the seventies. Those who experienced those exhilarating days associate the term with friends, family and plenty of good music. Rare footage, photo albums and the fabulous sounds of the era allow us to remember who we were then. El Open House is a nostalgic journey to a youthful past; a time that added magic to the city we now call home.
Funding for El Open House is made possible by Leon Medical Centers and the Zulueta Family

Downton Abbey's US season three debut draws in 8M viewers... as Rob James-Collier smoulders in shoot for gay magazine
Nearly 8 million people tuned in for Sunday's third season opener of Downton Abbey on PBS
The third-season launch almost doubled the 4 million who'd watched PBS's the second-season debut and also quadrupled PBS's average primetime performance.
All experts are predicted a similarly record breaking season as the second series continued the high figures of the opening episode.
Scroll down to watch season three trailer...
Still keeping on: Elizabeth McGovern as Lady Grantham, Hugh Bonneville as Lord Grantham welcomed nearly 8 million views to the opening episode of Downton Abbey's third series
And Rob James-Collier has hinted that there is much more to come for him this season as the show further explores his character Thomas' life as a gay man in Edwardian England.
Entertainment Weekly described the opener as a 'rich, dense fruitcake' while Slate.com praised the way Maggie Smith and Shirley MacClaine, both 78, traded 'zingers,' though all agreed that the English dame had the best of her American counterpart.
Thanks to the British show, PBS was the second most watched broadcast network between 9 and 11, CBS with its original episodes of The Good Wife and The Mentalist just managed to pip them.
Crossing the pond: This season includes a gift to American fans of the show in the form of their countrywoman Shirley MacLaine, who plays Martha Levinson
Favourites: Dan Stevens as Matthew Crawley and Michelle Dockery as Lady Mary, their engagement is back on
Star turn: Maggie Smith and Shirley MacClaine go head-to-head in the new season
'I'm thrilled to see so many viewers return to the Crawley family's delicious drama and intrigue,' executive producer Rebecca Eaton said Monday.
Julian Fellowes' insanely popular show has already concluded its third series in the UK.
Downton first aired on PBS on January 9, 2011.
The best is yet to come: Rob James-Collier has hinted that season three sees much more exploration into Thomas' life
Little devil: Thomas is something of a an eccentric, and so is the man who plays him according to Rob who admits to be being over the top
This season rejoins the story as World War I is over, the engagement of Lady Mary and Matthew is firmly back on.
And Shirley MacLaine has joined the cast, offering a gift to loyal American fans of the show via her Virginia drawl... though she will have to go a long way to outshine a certain Maggie Smith.
Meanwhile, Manchester born James-Collier, 36, has spoken to Out magazine about what it's like playing a gay Edwardian in the show.
No doubting Thomas: James-Collier has hinted we'll see understand more about what it was like to be a gay Edwardian in the third season
Intriguing: Rob plays a gay character trying to live his life long before it was legal to do so in the UK, it would take until 1967 for same sex couples to live openly
The 36-year-old, who posed for a sultry shoot to accompany the article, revealed that this season will see Thomas's sexuality be explored fully.
He said: 'It's the [season] where we really get to grips with Thomas's sexuality and the impact that must have had on him, being gay in Edwardian times.
'If you're including a gay character, there's an onus and responsibility to at least show what the impact of the time will be on him, and of him on that time. Thankfully we've done that, and I'm so proud as an actor that I've been used to tell that tale.'

Cecchini gets on base a lot, and will probably hit for a good average in the bigs, but his defense at third base is pretty shaky, and he hasn't shown much power in professional ball, yet.2. Publius Publicola Posted: June 01, 2014 at 11:02 AM (#4716799)
To some extent, how you feel about the impending move of Bogaerts to third base as Drew arrives is probably related to how strongly you feel that Cecchini will eventually stick as a first-division 3B for the Red Sox. I am somewhat skeptical about Cecchini as a major league third baseman, and think that Boston may have a better SS prospect in Deven Marrero - thus making the move of Bogaerts, who is a big guy, to 3B more logical.
Cecchini is also starting to be eclipsed in Boston's system by other prospects (Henry Owens and Mookie Betts are the most prominent examples, but Swihart is coming up on the rail, too...).
Cecchini is also starting to be eclipsed in Boston's system by other prospects
Getting eclipsed is only meaningful of the one eclipsing plays the same position as the one being eclipsed. That Owens is pitching well bears no negative consequences on Cecchini's future. And Betts is being auditioned as an outfielder.
Traffic jam at 3B for the Red Sox, maybe??4. Nasty Nate Posted: June 01, 2014 at 12:41 PM (#4716828)
It's likely that he is only on the roster for just the one game today.5. Steve Balboni's Personal Trainer Posted: June 01, 2014 at 12:48 PM (#4716830)
Getting eclipsed is only meaningful of the one eclipsing plays the same position as the one being eclipsed. That Owens is pitching well bears no negative consequences on Cecchini's future. And Betts is being auditioned as an outfielder.
I understand that - I meant it in an informal, "who are fans, bloggers, local media, etc., talking about?" You're right...none of these guys are moving "ahead of him" on the 3B depth chart. However, the fact that Cecchini's power and defense at 3B is not progressing a ton in AAA is causing him to get eclipsed by other prospects in terms of likelihood of filling various roles sooner than later.
For example, the team is thinking about whether or not Cecchini can play some 1B or LF, but the lack of power development makes being a 1B or corner OF less attractive, even as a bench guy. Alex Hassan has been doing some 1B work, in addition to being an OF for a long time; Mookie Betts has been getting comfortable in the OF, and his offense is so crazy good that you could live with a few mistakes in the OF if he is getting on base 45% of the time with extra base power and 22/25 in SB in the minors; even Travis Shaw is hitting very well at 1B, and has been promoted to AAA with a pretty good glove and a left-handed bat.
So, in terms of Cecchini, other players are indeed moving ahead of him on the depth chart for opportunities that may arise in 2014 and early 2015. There are left-handed bats which may move ahead of him for spot duty; players who can handle the OF or 1B better than Cecchini in a pinch; and his defense isn't yet good enough to cause the team to have a conversation about him at 3B in 2015 (making Marrero at SS a more interesting conversation).
I went to bb-ref to see if I should pick him up in my fantasy league and was pleasantly surprised to see he was born in my hometown of about 20,000. I didn't pick him up for this week but wish him well and hope his play warrants that I add him soon.7. SteveF Posted: June 02, 2014 at 01:11 AM (#4717141)
Marrero has never hit well enough to start, even for a slick fielding shortstop. This has been his best year in the minors and he has a 731 OPS and struck out in nearly 1/4 of his plate appearances. I like his chances to make the majors as a utility guy, but that's about it.8. Nats-Homer-in-DC Posted: June 02, 2014 at 10:46 AM (#4717246)
I hope he's still in the league if/when younger brother Gavin makes it to the bigs. It will be even more confusing than when Greg A. and Greg W. Harris were playing.9. Dan Lee is a Big Hunk of Neufchâtel Posted: June 02, 2014 at 12:26 PM (#4717361)
But less confusing than when Bobby Jones and Bobby Jones were teammates.10. Steve Balboni's Personal Trainer Posted: June 02, 2014 at 12:38 PM (#4717375)
When Red Sox fans talk about Cecchini in most positive tones, the name Wade Boggs comes up: A third baseman who could hit for a high average, lots of walks, maybe-average defense at 3B, no power. Particularly in Boggs' time, this combination of skills was not valued highly - he was left in the minors somewhat longer than his statistics would have suggested, and he was even left off the 40-man roster at one point.11. Jose Is The Most Absurd Thing on the Site Posted: June 02, 2014 at 12:57 PM (#4717389)
Fast-forwarding to Cecchini, there are some surface-level similarities, but key differences, as well. He has arguably less power than Boggs did in the minors (mainly less doubles-level power). He walks even more often than Boggs...but he also strikes out a ton more than Boggs ever did (to the point where he has often had more Ks than BBs). He is also a lot faster than Boggs (Cecchini stole 51 out of 57 bases in A ball in 2012).
Anyway...so Cecchini gets into the game yesterday when Pedroia gets ejected, and gets two at bats. He strikes out looking in the first AB, then hits an RBI opposite-field double off The Wall in his second AB. That opposite-field double looked just like the way Wade Boggs did it for over a decade.
Left-handed hitters who can flick outside pitches against The Wall can get an awful lot of singles and doubles that way...in a way that is masked while they are in Pawtucket (though not in AA, where there is a big wall in Portland's left field).
He is also a lot faster than Boggs (Cecchini stole 51 out of 57 bases in A ball in 2012).
I don't know how much of this is going to translate at the big league level. Everything I've read about Cecchini is that he is fairly average speed, he had a serious knee injury before being drafted and seems to be a guy who is using baseball smarts rather than speed to steal bases. He's only stolen 6 this year in 50 games which isn't bad but I think he's a low double digit steal guy at best in the Majors.
Bob Miller and Bob Miller were teammates on the 1962 Mets.13. SoSHially Unacceptable Posted: June 02, 2014 at 01:08 PM (#4717400)
he was left in the minors somewhat longer than his statistics would have suggested,
Nah. He genuinely showed no pop until his final season of Triple A. I think the Red Sox had reasonable concerns that such a glaring weakness would seriously limit his effectiveness at the big league level (of course, they also had a good third baseman at the time, but if they really were sold on Boggs they probably don't pursue Lansford in 81).
Never mind Boggs' only average speed, the thing I remember watching him all those years with the Sox is that he seemed to always play it safe on the bases. He was like the Bizarro Herzog Royal. The threshold for taking the next base wasn't a 50-50 chance; it was something like 95-5.15. SoSHially Unacceptable Posted: June 02, 2014 at 02:51 PM (#4717502)

No kidding. He was the least aggressive baserunner I've ever seen.* He just had no instincts in that regard.
* To be fair, it probably didn't cost them too much, except for adding to Jim Ed's GIDP numbers. But he was no fun to watch on the bases.

LIVE RECAP- FASHION KING Ep 13! NOW!
LIVE RECAP- FASHION KING Ep 13! NOW!
>Youngul wakes up from his sleep, and runs to check Gayoung's side. She's not there. Aww..Puppy's sad face. She's actually staying with one of Youngul's assistant. At the Jaehyuk's compagny, the news gets to him that Gayoung is at her first day of work, Officially. With a huuuge smile on his face, he goes check her out himself at work! Without even saying a word to her, he smiles again while leaving.
>Meanwhile, Youngul's little scam about the Big fake client from the States is BUSTED >< it's Jaehyuk' himself that sends his assistant to break the news to Miss Jo. Shocked, feeling betrayed, she's already signing up with Jaehyuk's compagny leaving Youngul. This latter reads about on the news..Next thing you know, Jaehyuk's calling him.
>"BOSS?!" Gayoung crosses his path there. "Don't Ever call me so again" replies Youngul with the coldest tone ever ><
>At night, Gayoung unable to sleep, goes to Youngul's Place!He's not there! Dang! After a while...HE COMES HOME!Arghh these two!! Now Youngul's hallucinations start! He sees EVERY-WHERE! Taking his permission to leave work, cleaning up around, sleeping on her little uncomfy bed...Wait! There..There..THERE SHE IS! But he's out again!! He just couldn't stand seeing her popping out like a ghost in his imagination, so now He missed her for real ARGHH...how frustrating!!
>Next day at work, A big meeting gathering everyone at Jaehyuk's compagny is being held: Miss Jo, Gayoung and even ANNA shows up. Both these 2 look at each other, Anna is in a Murder Mood LOL After the meeting, Gayoung tries to have a word with Jaehyuk, but he totally ditches her, then the rest of the staff just break away as she arrives at the office. Wow..They're bullying the Newbie.
>Gayoung receives a call just in time! She's called out to Jaehyuk's..PRIVATE RESTING SPACE! He thinks it's all going to be about the two of them talking and all, but first thing she asks him is the reason why he took Youngul's client. She keeps backing him up until Jaehyun stops her, to shock with the news that it was never the case, and that Youngul's been playing dirty from the begining.
>Youngul on his side, is giving away money to his sewers. i don't know how he managed to get the cash, poor guy..He even has Gayoung's part. Square and fair, he calls at night, asking her to meet him."Sure I ll Be right there" says Gayoung so excited! But then Jaehyuk's calls too for an important meeting, and she DARES TO CALL IT OFF >< Youngul is there, to see her smiling while getting in Jaehyuk's car. He can't believe his eyes. Jaehyuk notices him as well as Gayoung. How sweet is the taste of Victory, Jaehyuk?
>Back to his little office, Youngul turns all of his pain into energy, and creates the most beautiful Red Dress. At the dinner meeting, Gayoung still thinks ofYoungul:"Excuse me but i need to leave" she says to Jaehyuk. But guess who arrives first at Youngul's..ANNA! "Hey young lady!What brings you here?" he asks her looking pretty happy. "Oh, i like that dress, let me be your fitting Model for the night!" OMG what if Gayoung arrives >< ??
>As i feared, she arrives and hears the giggling of the two! As she did not even bother to open up the door, her imagination went a little too far! She runs back to her current place and cries a river.
>Anna get called by Jaehyuk's mother:"How dare you call me your future mother in law when you re messing around?" screams at her while throwing photos of her from last night at Youngul's place! SHE HAS PPLE STALKING HER? Anna even gets a few slaps in the face! She keeps her cool. Anna explains how she did nothing wrong, on the contrary, she's the one being done wrong by Jaehyuk! Only to make everything worst, Jaehyuk's doesn't even take her side when she tell him what happened. "How about we get this done, once and for all, Anna." .
>Youngul's back to work, with all of his sewers and new assistant. No scams this time. He seems even more strict towards all:"Why aren't you all cleaning up after the mess you do?" During little moments like these, Gayoung's thoughts comes to his mind. For Gayoung's side, she has to put up with Anna, who pretends to be getting calls from Youngul, and starts acting all cute and sounds intimate, just to make her jealous. How Childish LOL But, it is working.
>Later that night, a big fashion show announcing the new line of Youngul. Everyone is invited including Jaehyuk & Gayoung. The collection is just breathtakingly Great! At the end, Young AND ANNA comes to greet the audience! Both Jaehyuk and Gayoung are shocked to see those two together. Well guess what Jaehyuk decides to do? He Holds Gayoung's Hand!! Pay Back Is Harsh! Now Youngul & Anna are the ones in Misbelief!!

Uncensored Customer Reviews
Customers who purchased the Hanes 50/50 T-shirt had this to say:
Very easy to work with and very accommodating to my organizations needs. Thank you all!
Sterling, VA
The overall service was excellent. I'd prefer the last order to be sent as the first order. The box could have been left at my door as the previous one. I had to track down the order and then pick it up at UPS local delivery. It was somewhat inconvenient at the time. It would have been helpful to let me know ahead of time that you would be sending it with a required signature. Otherwise your service was excellent.
Germantown, MD
Customink experience was professional and personable as I would have expected them to be but was exceptional when the young woman called to talk about design and asked what the + next to two names were. I relayed that these were deceased members and I didn't find a cross option. She immediately offered to put in crosses - that was more than I expected. Thank you.
Oklahoma City, OK
Shipping was on time and customer service was exceptional. I suppose at $25.00 per shirt I expected perfection, but overall, I am satisfied.
Irwin, PA
I went back and forth on whether the shirts were a good idea for the family get-together as they were a little more expansive then I wanted. The customer service and help received from Custom Ink tweaking the design and going over options made the decision for me to go for it. So glad I did. The shirts were a huge success and everyone loved them creating a great memory and keepsake.

Once again, a great experience with custom ink.
Marist High School Band,

Was extremely impressed with the attention paid to my order by Custom Ink customer service! It was refreshing to get regular updates throughout every aspect of the process.
Vacaville, CA
Great as always! And shipping was - pleasant surprise - 3 days early. Bonus!
Club Mitch,
Minneapolis, MN
Customlnk exceeded my expectations. The idea of a shirt for our family reunion came up less than a week before the event, but Customlnk delivered. The process was so user-friendly that the shirt was created in minutes, the submission and subsequent design approval happened within hours, and the finished product was delivered within days. Amazing!

My aunt immediately asked what company I ordered from and where I heard about Custom Ink (TV)! We are excited to show the shirts to the entire family. We received amazing customer service throughout the entire process via phone and email. My mom, aunt, and I absolutely love the reunion shirts. The agents took great care of the order and when the shipment arrived early that was a plus. I am so impressed with the company's service I am thinking about applying to be an customer care agent as a recent graduate.
Springfield, VA
The disappointments with this order are that 2XL shirts cost extra and the graphic for the youth sizes couldn't be made smaller to have a similar look as the adult size shirt without a significant cost.

ARLINGTON, Texas — They weren't going to take no for an answer. They stood and chanted, throaty screams reaching decibels reserved for flyovers. If Mike Napoli hadn't realized his status as the Texas Rangers' savior, he did at this moment.
He emerged from the dugout and tipped his cap after a breathtaking home run Sunday night. Rather than beginning to draw in the drapes on the Rangers' season, the curtain call provided the defining moment in a coldly efficient 4-0 victory over the Cardinals.

DEFINITION of 'Time Value of Money - TVM'
The idea that money available at the present time is worth more than the same amount in the future due to its potential earning capacity. This core principle of finance holds that, provided money can earn interest, any amount of money is worth more the sooner it is received.
Also referred to as "present discounted value".
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Time Value of Money - TVM'
Everyone knows that money deposited in a savings account will earn interest. Because of this universal fact, we would prefer to receive money today rather than the same amount in the future.
For example, assuming a 5% interest rate, $100 invested today will be worth $105 in one year ($100 multiplied by 1.05). Conversely, $100 received one year from now is only worth $95.24 today ($100 divided by 1.05), assuming a 5% interest rate.

Questions over police behaviour at Riga Pride
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
Funny. Nobody asked my orientation and I'm straight.
Well, it is true that we were a bit too protected, but I can understand the police too – remembering '06 and excrement throwing. Hopefully it'll get better with years, we've already come a long way.
where did you get your numbers, guys? Latvian major newspapers were reporting 200 pride participants and 700 protesters.
But regarding idea of pride itself and protesters I have to say pride is following principle – one size fits all. One method fits all situations. One set of values fits all cultures. Too bad the set of values pride represents is white rich and middle class liberal values. But trying to force these values on entire world is a new form of imperialism and racism. Think of these values and traditional cultures in Africa or Asia. Think of muslim world. And if people in these areas don't accept these liberal values, then with genuine resentment you would conclude – they are narrow minded, backward thinking, judgmental idiots. But look in the mirror. Why do you think that the whole world and all cultures and all ethnic groups should adopt values that white rich Europeans came up with. I think it is very narrow minded and racist attitude that thinks – only my values and my background and my culture is valid, but all others – bigots. Think again…

Time's up, industry boss says
Relevant offers
Southern police are introducing measures to tackle alcohol-related violence and drink-driving in the shearing industry.
The industry has been in the headlines for the wrong reasons in the past year, with an Invercargill district court judge and the Otago-Southland coroner criticising the boozing ways of shearing gangs.
When sentencing southern shearing-gang workers on alcohol-related charges in the past year, Judge Kevin Phillips has made numerous stinging comments about the industry.
These included saying that alcohol appeared to be a contagious disease in shearing gangs; shearing was an industry where part of the training was to drink alcohol almost daily and cause mayhem; and alcoholism was the "inherent disease of working in the shearing sheds".
And coroner David Crerar had his say this month, calling on all shearing contractors to take steps to ensure the safety of their staff outside of normal working hours. This followed the drink-driving death of teenage shearing hand Troy Macfarlane after a work party.
New Zealand Shearing Contractors Association chairman Barry Pullin this week responded, saying his organisation had been saying for a long time that enough was enough.
The organisation had taken many steps in the past five years to combat issues of alcohol, drug abuse and driving accidents during work time, Mr Pullin said.
The shearing association took matters relating to driving and alcohol among its members very seriously and the issue was discussed at a recent executive meeting, with decisions made.
"A proposal was put forward to work with the New Zealand police, Department of Labour and ACC in an effort to continue helping influence and change the shearing community's attitude towards drinking and driving.
"The days of working hard and playing hard, with alcohol involved, are definitely over," Mr Pullin said.
Southland area commander Inspector Lane Todd said last night that the drinking culture in the shearing industry was a problem, not just with drink-driving, but also with violence, both in Southland and rural Otago.
He welcomed the fact the industry wanted to work with police, saying police had themselves taken steps to work proactively with shearing contractors in Southland and rural Otago in the past two months.
A police intelligence team had been tasked with identifying what the issues were and a police iwi liaison officer would consult with the shearing contractors to reduce alcohol-related harm, Mr Todd said.
A Labour Department spokesman said the alcohol issue was for the shearing industry to address, but the department would be supportive of any initiative the industry implemented to tackle the problems.

Anti-Castro Cubans shift funding to US Democrats
Washington: Groups opposing Cuba`s communist regime have dramatically shifted funding toward the US Democrats since the party took control of Congress in last year`s elections, according to a study published on Monday.
Seventy-six percent of funding from anti-Castro political action committees in the last 12 months was channelled to Democrats and just 24 percent to Republicans -- who have long been seen as the anti-Castro party.
The study carried out by Public Campaign, an organization that campaigns against interest groups skewing the political debate through donations, said a total of USD 10 million was funnelled from anti-Castro groups since 2004.
In 2004, Republicans received 71 percent of that so-called PAC money.
"Now that Democrats control the agenda, the PAC has dramatically shifted its strategy to develop relationships with Democratic members," said Public Campaign.
The 53 Democratic legislators who earlier this year signed a letter against lifting the 47-year-old economic embargo against Cuba where among the beneficiaries, receiving USD 510,000 from one organisation.
But it is not just Congress` anti-Castro stalwarts who have come under Public Campaign`s scrutiny.
"It is a group of at least 18 House members whose positions have changed since 2004 on matters related to Cuba that attracted our curiosity," the group said.
They pointed to North Carolina Democrat Mike McIntyre, who is alleged to have consistently voted for measures lifting the embargo until 2004, when he received the first tranche of a total USD 14,500 from anti-Castro groups.
Public Campaign based their study on data on donations of over USD 1,000 which are required by law to be made public.

Topic: Shrubs
Title: Need shrubs to form a barrier fence to exclude large dogs in Huntsvile, TX.
Answered by: Jimmy Mills
QUESTION:I'm seeking shrubs to form a barrier fence to strongly discourage free-roaming large dogs from entering a property in Huntsville, Texas. The site is currently just a grass yard basking in full sun, getting at least 6 hours a day. We need something fast growing, sun loving, dense, thorny and, of course, native to East Texas. Some ornamental value would be a nice bonus, but deterrence is paramount.
Since your problem with free-range dogs seems pretty immediate, a quicker soluton might be to install a fence. However, if you are willing to wait several years, Mr. Smarty Plants can suggest some native plants that could eventually offer some deterence.
A plant that has a history of use as a hedge row plant is Maclura pomifera (osage orange), also known as Bois d'arc or horse apple. This thorny plant's use as a plant barrier in the open plains preceeded the invention of barbed wire, and its trunks were later used as fence posts to hold the wire. It can grow into a 20-40' tree, but with pruning can be trained to be a hedge. However, this may be more plant than you want. (more information)
A thorny, thicket forming tree/shrub (15-30 ft) with white flowers and edible red fruit is the Chickasaw Plum Prunus angustifolia (Chickasaw plum). It is a deciduous multi-stemmed shrub or small tree that can occur in thickets and fence rows. Although the plums may be eaten raw, they are somewhat tart and acidic, and are perhaps best used in preserves and jellies. (more information)
A final suggestion is that you contact the folks at Texas AgriLife Extension Service in Harris county for some help closer to home.
