I have been training with him since last few weeks and he is an amazing coach. Excited to learn and improve more with him. :)
I have just started training with him, and even though I've only had two lessons so far, I already feel more confident about my abilities. I highly recommend this coach, he's friendly and professional.
Alessandro sono un amante degli scacchi, ma con pochi soldi. Credi che mi potresti dare qualche lezione per migliorare il mio gioco senza farmi spendere molto? Grazie
I did a training game with him. I learned a lot from it and his analysis were also very good. He helped understand my mistakes and problems and told me how to solve them. I recommend him as coach.
Have had a trial turn-based game with Alex. Was a good experience and I recommend him as a coach. Having an interaction with a strong coach like he is really makes a difference.
I have been a student of Alessandro for the last six months. I found him to be a very talented, patient and invested teacher.In particular I appreciate his ability to understand my (usually faulted) line of thought, and the many occasions when he sets up a similar, but simpler position, to stress a point which I overlook.
I have been training with Alessandro for the last three months. Lessons are quite enjoyable and instructive and I already started having great results! Just had a chess tournament last weekend and manage to score 3.5 / 5 against opponents with ELO of more than 1850! (mine is just above 1550)
As a brief summary of my experience, initially I asked Alessandro for help on my opening repertoire. He spent quite a lot of time explaining the opening, so that I actually understood what was going on and what the general middle game plans were. In parallel, a lot of teaching time went in the planning activity. Above all, Ale usually goes through my games and finds instructive positions in which my moves were sub optimal and trying to improve my thinking process to get a better move.
Alessandro puts a lot of effort in preparing his lessons. I will seek to have lessons regularly with him and I would recommend players who want to improve to have trial lessons with him.
Great teacher!
My son takes lessons from Alessandro since March 2012. He has increased his rating by a great deal (+ 600) in the last year only. Thanks Ale.
The trial lesson was great, If your looking for a good coach, then contact Alessandro. He was very prepared before the lesson, he looked over my recent games, and came up with positions containing tactical ideas that I struggled with based on my games. I will definatly take more lessons.
Hi Allesandro,
I'd love to be your student. Can you tell me your paypal information?
Also is Sunday OK for you?
I'm studying with Santagati from Dec 2012 (6 lessons). Yesterday I played against a guy 1802 Elo OTB with 1 hour time. I was sure to be killed in a few moves. BUT -thanks to lessons with Alex- I played a very good game gaining a Rook for a Knight and in the endgame gaining a few pawns too. I lost the game for time but I am very proud to played better than a guy 417 points up!
Sto seguendo le lezioni di Santagati da dicembre 2012 (6 lezioni).Ho 1387 punti Elo e ieri sera ho giocato contro un 1802 dal vivo a un'ora. Pensavo di essere asfaltato allegramente invece grazie agli utili insegnamenti di Alex ho costruito una posizione supervinta (avevo la qualità e 7 pedoni contro 3). Il fatto che abbia perso per tempo non è rilevante perchè dopo il termine abbiamo continuato a giocare e l'avversario dopo poche mosse ha abbandonato brontolando!
Ciao, sono Giulio elo 1387. Volevo chiederti due cose:
1) Per mandarti una partita da analizzare, te la devo mandare o la vedi direttamente qui su Chess.com? Che tipo di partita è preferibile? (Blitz, LT, dal vivo, contro Computer, persone?)
2) Sono intenzionato a migliorare il mio gioco prendendo delle lezioni. Che cosa mi consigli?
we did 2 online lessons so far and they were very instructive ,i'm happy that i had allessandro as my coach . i'll definitely take more lessons ,i'm looking forward to it and i recommend everybody who wants to improve their game quality taking his lessons .and for a reasonable price too
I have had two live lessons with Skype support and will have more lessons with Alessandro. I have been pleased with his preparation. His verbal explanations, aided by graphical diagrams, make clear the purpose of the instructional chess positions. I would recommend him as your chess coach.
an amazing coach and a great person too...i'm always skeptikal when it comes to receive lessons from someone i've never met personaly....i've being taking lessons from him for about 3 months and my skills and ranking went up immediatly,so i've decided to renew my 20 lessons packet with him and my nephew will start be coached by him very soon too!! i would suggest him to everybody
A great coach, I took a trial lesson as a new chess player. Alex helped me by starting off with the basics, and going through the principles and tactics in detail. He is very patient and will answer any question. Would certainly schedule another lesson with him.

text: About SCC Home | About SCC | News and Media | SCC's Fire Protection Technology program to put new fire engine to use SCC's Fire Protection Technology program to put new fire engine to use Posted: Tuesday, June 12, 2012 at 3:30 PM Southeast Community College's Fire Protection Technology program has added a shiny, bright-red fire engine to its lineup of training equipment. Terry Spoor, program chair, said students in the summer quarter, which begins July 11, would be the first to train on the new truck. "SCC had gone through a series of donated units," Spoor said. "We had a whole history of second-hand fire apparatuses. We are very thankful for those, but they were older pieces of equipment and not optimal." SCC's ongoing effort to train students on the latest technology, regardless of program, led to the purchase of the new fire engine. Engine 17 is a 2012 Pierce Responder and cost approximately $180,000. It features a 1,250-gallons-per-minute Waterous pump and a 1,000-gallon poly tank. It contains high side compartments and rear-mount ladders. "This is more representative of the type of equipment our students will be working with, in both career and volunteer fire departments," Spoor said. "We now have a state-of-the-art piece of equipment to teach with in the program." Many safety improvements were made with this model, Spoor said, including a pressure regulation device for the pump, lighting in and around the apparatus for night-time operation, accessible ladders mounted under the tank, and a low-mount pre-connected hose bed behind the fully-enclosed four-door cab. Second-, third- and fourth-quarter students in the Structural Firefighter I, Structural Firefighter II and Structural Firefighting Operations classes will be the primary users of the new truck, Spoor said. "The (Structural) Firefighting Operations class will go through simulated situations where students will deploy as if they were on an actual emergency scene," Spoor said. The Freightliner M2 has a 38,000-pound gross vehicle weight chassis and is powered by a Cummins ISB 330 diesel engine. It also has an Allison 3000 EVS five-speed automatic transmission. The unit is National Fire Protection Association 1901-2009 compliant. Persons wanting more information about SCC's Fire Protection Technology program are asked to contact Spoor at 402-437-2677 or firstname.lastname@example.com. -30- For more information contact: Stu Osterthun Administrative Director of Public Information and Marketing 402-323-3401 email@example.com Related StoriesEnergy Generation Operations student receives $3,000 scholarship Posted: May 9, 2014SCC students among 23 honored during PTK All-Nebraska Academic Team Recognition Day Posted: April 18, 2014SCC hosts annual "Best of the Class" event by Lincoln TV station Posted: May 8, 2014SCC's Medical Assisting program ranked No. 11 nationally Posted: March 6, 2014Two SCC students receive scholarships from I-NEDA Posted: June 30, 2014SCC's Transitions Lab receives national award Posted: February 6, 20142014 Winter Quarter Graduates Posted: April 24, 2014Groundbreaking ceremony held for new career center Posted: May 2, 2014

Scant Hope for Refugees; Sudanese Flee War but Find Life as Perilous across Border
Byline: Lucy Jones, THE WASHINGTON TIMES
MBOKI, Central African Republic - Rafael Calezo had been walking for five months when he arrived in the Central African Republic recently.
Dressed in a torn shirt and trousers held up by string, he carried his daughter, who was silent from malnutrition.
"Our journey was terrible. One member of our group died from snakebite. Another gave birth on the way," he said, chewing the beans he foraged for that morning.
The 700 refugees who have entered the Central African Republic's eastern province, Haut-Mbomou, this year fled last September following the fall of the rebel-held town of Raga in southern Sudan - a trek of nearly 400 miles through the bush on foot.
"When the government troops came, there was bombing and many deaths. Then soldiers from both sides burned down our houses and looted our shops," said Adula Hissan, a trader.
"In Sudan, I owned a Toyota truck," he added.
Staying in an abandoned school here in Mboki, the asylum seekers have no blankets against nighttime drops in temperature and eat only what fruits they can find nearby.
"All these refugees have parasites, and many have malaria. The men have hernias from carrying children. There are also cases of leprosy," said a doctor from the French medical group Doctors Without Borders.
Mboki, 1,500 road miles east of Bangui, the Central African Republic's capital, was designated by the government as a resettlement center for Sudanese refugees after the first wave arrived in 1965. Now, an estimated 25,000 Sudanese live mainly in mud-and-straw shelters on the outskirts of the town of 5,600 people.
"We are expecting another several thousand refugees to arrive during the next few weeks. They are still in the bush. We don't know how the town is going to provide for them," said Peter Binza, head of the Mboki refugee committee.
Barely connected to the outside world - the last time the postal service operated in Mboki was 1974 - the community has little means to help the refugees. Money only circulates when a government plane arrives with the salaries of civil servants, and the last time wages were paid was in January 2001.
"Because we are located so far from Bangui, nobody cares what happens here. Now everybody is working on the land to produce food in order to survive," said Mayor Alphonse Gbanda, toiling in his own field.
The hospital closed this month on orders from the Red Cross in Bangui - a move that doctors say has led to the deaths of at least 14 patients who could have been saved. …

A Top Law School Tells a High-End Fashion House Where to Stick Its Cease and Desist Letter
An IP student group at a top law school decided to hold a symposium on the topic of fashion law. The students pulled out all the stops for the event: they got Biglaw sponsorship, they created an eye-catching flyer, and they lined up some of the greats of the fashion law world to speak. Needless to say, they expected a great turnout. What they didn't expect was to be on the receiving end of a cease and desist letter from a high-end fashion house….

I posted earlier that I picked up my new MS P85 at the end of August with SW version 5.0 and the navigation system frequently got lost or the arrow just spun around randomly making it virtually useless. I had the San Diego service center pick up the car yesterday and will get it back today. Here's what Brian Todd and the delivery guy told me:
The Nav problem is well understood by the engineers and seems to be a problem in 5.0 firmware. The program is going through some initial loops and checks upon startup that it shouldn't. Brian said the engineers will be releasing a firmware upgrade in the next few weeks that should definitively fix that problem. I believe it's only happening on 5.0 because my loaner car had 4.5 and the nav worked perfectly.
The delivery guy told me that they are actually loading 4.5 software on new deliveries at the service centers now even when they come with 5.0 from the factory because of the nav system and other bugs in 5.0. So if you're bummed you don't have 5.0 don't be - they are still working out the bugs.
I also had very squeaky brakes at very low speeds even after 700 miles of use. I have the 21" wheels and Brian said that the larger wheels amplify the sound of the pads on the rotors so they replaced my rotors with the newer design that has a rougher surface to dampen the vibration and noise.
Although I didn't have any problems reported, they also added adhesive to a side panel and some additional brackets to the panoramic roof which they said others had complained about so they just took care of it as a preventative measure.
They dropped a beautiful MS 85 off as a loaner at my office and were incredibly professional and courteous to work around my schedule (I made them reschedule due to a meeting conflict the day before the original appointment). I was sent emails and voicemails a few times over 24 hours to give me updates on the status of my repair. Really an outstanding service experience!! I highly recommend Brian and his team if you are in Southern California and need any service done.
While not ideal that the nav system on a brand new $100K car doesn't work, I have nothing but praise for the SC and the way Tesla handled it.
Yeah; the real question is: how did such a major misfire get out the door?
Agreed. It's very obvious so it's hard to understand how/if anybody actually tested the nav system with the new software version.
@Brian H
I'm guessing because it's not on all the cars. I'm on 5.0 and haven't had this issue. My NAV and Map have been dead on. Granted I've only had the car two weeks.
Imagine that the GPS issue affects 1 percent of all 5.0 cars. Someone doing QA on the line would have to catch it in 1 out of every 100 cars. On the other hand the number of affected cars shipping to customers would be six per week or 24 per month (assuming production rate of 600 per week).
Small defect rates translate to more complaining customers per time period as the production rate increases.
grrr, 6 per month, we really need edit capability
The P85 nav system seems to track and locate OK, but the map and distance calculations have been way off from the start 3K miles ago. Hopefully 5.0 firmware update will fix.
I have one of the affected cars and started the original other thread on this topic. In that thread an owner claims his SC told him there was a hardware problem "with the gyro / accelerometer and its connection to the main screen / system." on new cars. Hmmm would prefer it to be software.
BTW - the percentage of new owners with this problem is WAY higher than 1%. In fact it almost seems the other way around. I see very few people responding to my original thread that say it is working properly on cars picked up in September.
Working 100% fine here on a car picked up last week. P85 with Tech. On v5.0.
Spinning GPS screen on my one week old P85 using v5.0.
No problems at all on my 85 picked up on Sept 20th in PA
I have a brand new P85 and have the Nav system problem as well. The map just spins and the car location jumps around. In addition, the labels don't rotate with the map, so they are sometimes upside down and as a result impossible to read. Not sure how this made it through QA?? Is it possible to revert to 4.5 which seems to be more stable?
My take: There are a couple of problems with the 5.0 software that does not involve the GPS/mapping. Since this thread contains a statement that some new vehicles are coming with 4.5 that tells me that the software/firmware team is trying to address all the 'bugs' in the 5.0 offering before putting it into new cars and releasing it to existing S owners.
This makes perfect sense to me. As everyone would like to have a bug free 5.0. No sense to put more cars out that will frustrate new and current owners.
No GPS problems on my 5.0 firmware either, and I've used it for over 1,000 miles.
Here's the text from the service report:
Complaint Narrative: Customer states: Navigation works 50% of the time- cursor continues in
a straight line when road curves- symptom occurs with good 3G signal and post "reboot"
Pay Type: Warranty
Cause: Found gyro on gps unit malfunctioning. Engineering is currently working on the fix for
it. Will send to customer when it becomes available.
Correction: Navigation General Diagnosis
No repairs available at this time.
It sounds like the hardware/gyro problem MarioA posted but I'm sure he said they would deploy a firmware/software fix in the next few weeks. He even described the software behavior upon startup that they thought was causing it. If this is happening on similar models with the same software version it is sounding more like hardware than software. I'll be really upset if they find it's a hardware problem after what they told me.
MarioA - did the poster on your thread specify if they actually had the problem fixed with a hardware replacement of the gyro/display elements?
Here is what he reported he was told when he took his car in for service. Have not heard if he ever got the temporary software patch.:
"1. Is a known issue with recent production cars. IS A HARDWARE ISSUE with the gyro / accelerometer and its connection to the main screen / system.
2. They are working on a hardware fix and when that is ready will notify me (and I assume all recent purchasers) for an appointment to bring in the car and replace the hardware.
3. In the meantime they took down my VIN and are going to push to my car a temporary software work around that evidently helps with the problem. It is supposed to come this evening."
I asked Brian at the San Diego SC to clarify the confusion in this thread. Here's his answer:
Update from San Diego SC on my P85+ MS (5.0) Nav problem:
n regards to the navigation issue, they are right on the money. The gyro is the main problem with the vehicle. Being that it is a hardware issue, they are fixing the problem on the line, then replacing customer vehicles in the field. The update I was talking about will ignore the gyro data. Essentially acting as a quick fix until the part becomes available. In regards to a timeline, I currently do not have anything. You are one of two on my list for this problem, so I will contact you as soon as we get an ETA.
Gyro Gearloose would have known what to do instantly.
I have problem with nav. I picked up my car on 9/11, yes 9/11.
I have the same problem. Nav Location goes off and main screen spins at times. Picked up 9/24 with 5.0. The spinning seems like the gyro problem but the location going off seems like a HW/SW issue even on the gps side?
Interesting discussion. I have the 5.0 in a Sept delivery and have not had any map problems. The map rotates and that does rotate the location names upside down. Otherwise, it has been perfect. Love the option to mute and raise/lower the navigation voice.
SC called me today asking to bring my S60 in tomorrow to have the MCU replaced to fix the problem. Said they needed for the entire day. Fine with me, as long as it gets fixed!
So its hardware needed to fix this, not a software patch it looks like.
The replacement MCU is a refurb, not new. Nothing like spending 100k on a car, getting a defective nav, and getting used parts to fix a bug that shouldn't be there.
Sept delivery on mine w 5.0 software, >1,000 mi driven, no GPS problems.
Late sept model S with tech package version 5. Same GPS issues as others have had. Hope the patch helps. The map is not useful about half the time. Love the rest of the car.
I've had no problems with mine. Also picked up late September, software version 5. Guess it is the screen. Kapil, how do you know it is refurbished?
I took delivery on September 15th.
The SC has had mine since last Friday. The NAV issue is one of the issues being addressed. Others involve a leather imperfection on the front passenger seat, driver side front door not being aligned with back door and a chip on the hood.
I'm supposed to get the car back tomorrow. I will provide an update once I find out how they addressed the NAV issue.
@dramingly The service center told me it's a refurb.
I heard today from Fremont service center that they are testing and will release 5.5 in 2 weeks.
The SoCal service center had my car since last Friday and apparently could not reproduce the NAV issue. It took me three minutes today to show one of their mechanics the problem...
They suggested I wait until next week when 5.6 is released. If that doesn't solve the problem they will replace the MCU. Needless to say I'm disappointed.

Well, he is.
"The Klingons" aren't a villain. They're just a bunch of stock bad guys who folks are confused about because of TNG (in fact, one of the writers of ST '09 gave the "reformation" of the Klingons as a reason for not using them in this one. That works). Khan translates into a very specific image for mainstream folks who are aware of Trek at all, and that's Ricardo Montalban facing off with William Shatner in that Trek movie with Kirstie Alley.
There is no Klingon character in the history of Trek that approaches this level of recognition, and announcing that in the next movie Kirk will fight Klingons buys the studio nothing in terms of cutting through media noise. It's like saying that next time out Batman will fight some bank robbers hiding out in an abandoned warehouse.

Truvada: A good news day for the most at risk of HIV
Ahead of the International AIDS Conference next week, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the US has approved a new 'wonder' drug called Truvada, which will help to reduce new HIV infections among some of the most vulnerable people.
The approval of this drug, which is a combination Tenofovir & emtricitabine pills – builds on the 'treatment as prevention' phenomenon as well as the effectiveness of antiretroviral therapy. Some of the people who will benefit from this drug are HIV negative partners in relationships where one partner is HIV positive and the other is not. The HIV negative partner will be taking the drug to keep from developing HIV. In clinical trials, Truvada showed a reduction in transmission of up to 75%. The approval and efficacy of Truvada is really good news in the growing scientific journey of HIV treatments – and we need every bit of good news we can get to contribute to minimising new infections.
However, the good news masks some challenges that no-one really wants to talk about at this time through fear of spoiling the party surrounding the drug's approval. The biggest issue is who is going to pay for this expensive medication in this economic climate. From the figures that are being quoted in various news articles, a course of treatment is going to cost up to $13,000 annually. We already have far too many people living with HIV who need treatment right now and are unable to get it.
Then there are also a whole list of side effects, starting with abnormal skin sensations and skin discoloration (small spots or freckles); back pain; cough; diarrhoea; indigestion; joint pain; loss of appetite; nausea; strange dreams; sweating; tiredness; trouble sleeping; vomiting; weakness; weight loss and more. Speaking as somebody who has been on some sort of HIV treatment for more than 20 years and experienced my share of side effects, this is no small challenge! Just the fear of just experiencing some minor side effects can put people off treatment.
The other issue is treatment fatigue. Some research has recently been published which suggests that the longer a person living with HIV is on treatment, the more they tend to forget to, and/or become tired of, taking those drugs. HIV treatments are for life, at least for now. The approval of Truvada should be balanced out by the reality of people taking this drug in the long-term.
On another note, I also wish to share how inspired I feel having attended the first day of the INERELA+ general assembly which takes place every three years. The meeting took place at the Founder's Library on the campus of Howard University, the first ever all-black University in the US. INERELA+ got started just a little over ten years ago with the idea to bring together religious leaders living and affected by HIV and to use this comparative advantage to have an impact on other faith leaders & faith communities to reduce HIV related stigma and create HIV competent places of worship. A decade on, INERELA+ has a membership of over 7000 faith leaders and growing, and are seen as a critical partners in the HIV response. More power to them.

|Stir fried calamari and snake beans
However the dish of the night was probably the side of son in law eggs ($4). The eggs were soft boiled and then lightly deep fried and topped with curls of chilli, crisp shallots and fresh coriander. Mixing the oozing, yellow egg yolk into the rice was all kinds of delicious.

Alison Sim said at 2:10 am on March 14th, 2012:
This sounds great. I think I want to start a food blog just as an excuse to get out and eat good food more often!
essjayeff said at 2:24 am on March 14th, 2012:
Oh no … no dessert? You will have to go back and try the desserts. Glad you enjoyed – I quite like Easy Tiger too. It's easy to like
MoMo and Coco said at 8:12 am on March 14th, 2012:
I quite love Easy Tiger too, though Gingerboy's son-in-law eggs are far better, imo. I second essjayeff's comments on desserts too — we blogged about it here, http://momoandcoco.wordpress.com/2011/11/8/easy-tiger/ they are more consistently lovely than the savouries at Easy Tiger.
Hanna said at 11:49 am on March 14th, 2012:
What a fun read! And I would love to try those eggs…
tori said at 4:05 pm on March 14th, 2012:
Son in law eggs are such swoon-worthy stuff… you've inspired me to try and stalk some down in London- any tips on where I might find them?
msihua said at 10:23 am on March 15th, 2012:
It does look nice, and quite pricey too, but if the quality matches up to the pricing then it's great!
Gourmet Chick said at 11:01 pm on March 15th, 2012:
Alison – It's a great excuse to eat out (not that I need any encouragement)
EssJay – I have heard the desserts are sensational but (very out of character) I was just too full so had no room.
Momo and Coco – Right it sounds like a return visit just to try the desserts is required.
Hanna – The eggs were delicious
Tori – I know I love them but I really can't recall seeing them on the menu anywhere in London
Ms IHua – Yes I think it was worth it.
Info Travel said at 10:54 am on March 17th, 2012:
Thanks. I will go to Easy Tiger and enjoy them.
Amy said at 8:43 am on April 16th, 2012:
I read this awhile back but didn't have time to comment but I filed it away in my memory for my next night escaping the suburbs! I've booked a dinner with 3 friends to go here in a couple of weeks and I can't wait!!!! Thanks for the fab review.xo
Amy said at 12:41 am on May 3rd, 2012:
We went here last night on your and Melbourne Gastronome's recommendations and it was brilliant!!! Such a delicious meal and lovely service and a gorgeous atmosphere. The prawns on the betel leaf, pumpkin curry and the caramalised custard with poached pineapple were the favorites of the night. That dessert was incredible – one of the best I've ever had!
I don't get too many dinners out in the big smoke these days, and to have to organise dinner for the kids, either my hub home a bit early or a babysitter, quite a lot of work goes in to a dining experience. It's nice to not have to play Russian roulette with my restaurant choices and make a night out really amazing and worthwhile! Thanks for the review!xo
cara waters said at 10:56 am on May 3rd, 2012:
Info Travel – Good to hear
Amy – So happy to hear that you loved it. Can't believe I didn't try the caramalised custard with poached pineapple – will have to go back for that one for sure.

Getting out and seeing as much work as possible in person. Get out and balance seeing Weston w/ maybe some Sander, or Penn, then find some Winogrands, then some Koudelka, then some Arbus or etc...they all did something tremendous, some w/ technique that can seem studied perfection, others w/ a seeming recklessness, but all w/ a method that can be revered. It's like reading Greenes' "The Power and the Glory" and then Faulkner's "The Sound and the Fury, " completely different writing but such similar concerns...and both enough to change any readers life forever.
Oh, and on this airy sidetrack, I happened upon a docu the other night called "The Radiant Child." It's on Basquiat, and whether you're a fan of his work or not it's an excellent film to watch both for it's footage+comments on the art world, but moreover on a insightful (and understandably sentimental) look at a mind that created work in his early 20s of such immediacy and complexity that it'll put into perspective topics like developer discussions - not rule them out, just put them into perspective.

Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has been willing to admit some of the company's missteps in the past, and he's just done so again in addressing the now infamous Kin. Speaking with The Seattle Times, Ballmer said that the "No. 1 message from Kin is a message of focus," and that ultimately, "it just defocused activity from Windows Phone." Not exactly a huge surprise by any means, but it's still pretty notable to hear straight from the top, especially considering how much it cost Microsoft to learn that message. As for the rest of the interview, Ballmer didn't make a ton of news, but he did say that we'll be seeing additional Windows 7 tablet form factors starting this Christmas, and he revealed that he does in fact have a Facebook page, but he won't say which of the many Steve Ballmer pages is the real one.

How hard I work to make sure the girls have everything they need! (And most of what they want... lol)
That mommy was always there for him. No matter what.

Just thought I'd share this with you: when I potted up my baby tomato plants, one of them snapped off near soil level. I pushed it down into the compost, but was running out of space in the mini-greenhouse, so I left the damaged one out on the ground in its pot. It's an outdoor variety (Maskotka) but this was only mid-April.
I took good care of the other tomatoes, putting bubble-wrap around them on cold nights. At the end of May I planted them out in the bed, and noticed that the "runt" was still alive. So I found a spot for it in another corner of the garden, just to see if it would survive. And guess what? It's now the bushiest and greenest of all my tomato plants.
So maybe we don't need to mollycoddle our plants so much. This one has been injured, left for dead and exposed to the elements since April, and it's thriving!
Has anyone else had an experience like that? -not personally! (left for dead, etc) - but with a supposedly tender plant that turns out to be a toughie?
I make gooseberry wine and blend it with elderflower wine. The gooseberry on its own is bit acidic, but it blends beautifully with the elderflower and makes a lovely wine.
I agree, that's what courgettes do when they're not pollinated. I see they're in pots - are they in a greenhouse? That would help to explain it. It's early in the season, so there's still time for them to come good. Hang in there but make sure they can be accessed by insects, or pollinate them manually.
We have a plum tree that's about six years old and this is the first year there's been any sort of crop from it. I think you just have to be patient.
I have a mini-greenhouse which does the same sort of thing. One extra use I have found for it is to dry off my onions, shallots and garlic if the weather is unsettled when they're ready to harvest.
I usually cut back to a pair of buds a few inches from the ground. New shoots will then grow up. If cut do it a bit higher up, it will still be OK. And watch out for slugs and snails munching the new shoots as they start to grow!
No, they don't get drunk but when they have a tummy full of nectar, they become quite docile. If you see one that looks wobbly it may just be dying or ill - an individual bee may not live very long, and some get diseases. All the male drones get pushed out of the hive to die off at the end of the season. I'm not sure if they actually sleep in the way we do.
Although they can go seven miles, they dont't normally go more than two or three miles from the hive - they'll go for whatever is nearest and most abundant in nectar. If they find any oil-seed rape, they will happily pig out on that and not look any further.
The popular plants with bees in our garden at the moment are various cotoneasters, sage, and the perennial geraniums (cranesbill-type). They bees are practically queuing up to get at the geraniums. The thing I really must get is a flowering shrub called abelia (there's a clue in the name) which bees really love.
It's also similar to one called Bees' Jubilee (which is in flower now in my garden right now). It goes on to develop pretty silvery-gold whorly seed-heads. It's almost certainly one that you cut right back in the early spring, so if you never find out its name, it won't matter much.
Many plants suits some sorts of bee but not others. Bumble bees have longer tongues and can reach further into flowers than honey bees. On Gardeners' World last week they had a feature about aquilegias, and showed how some bumble bees bite into the back end of the flower to get straight to the nectar, so you never know, except by watching, what will appeal to bees or why.
I agree, cotoneasters are very much liked by bees, who seem attracted even by flowers that are almost invisibly small to us, but some are a bit rampant and ungainly. Or pyrocanthus can make a stately climber if you train it well.
I think you may have som good plants there, so don't rush to cut them back. Wait and see how they perform. Evergreen shrubs (which some of them must be) are usually quite low-maintenance and give interest all year round.
Looking at your photo, it looks as if you've got a whopping great honeysuckle on the left-hand fence. You may want to prune that drastically, they can rather take over (and they can block drains). On the bottom right, it looks like lily of the valley, which either won't grow or won't stop growing (the latter in your case! Mine all died). You might want to get that under control too. Close to the path you have some pretty dianthus (pinks) and some sort of herbaceaous thing (a geranium?) that may soon flower. Those look worth keeping. At the back there'a nice yellow bush - possibly euonymus, which is attractive all year round. Between the solar lights is possibly a herb (oregano?), I'm not sure, and behind it is what looks like a hydrangea - leave that alone and see if it flowers later in the summer. They're usually quite well behaved. The heather looks a bit big and dominant, but they're not eay things to tame once they spread.
All this is just opinions and guesses, but do give your garden time to show you what it can do, and then you can decide what you want to keep or change. You'll get lots of support here.

Now, like every other bloke, we love a few pints down at the pub with our mates but when it comes to stag dos nowadays it's not enough to just meander down to the local and "hope for the best." Think about it, stag weekends are for bonding with your best mates, experiencing new & weird things and for making memories that will last a lifetime.
So gather your herd of stags and break the ice with some competitive sporting action like go-kart racing or put your Call of Duty training to good use and decimate your mates at paintball. We've also got some fantastic activities that are far too exciting for the daytime. Like nail biting casino nights, dance till you drop VIP clubs, seductively sinful strip shows and we've got all these activities and much more both here in the UK and in Europe's hottest cities.
If you live for sport and love the idea of doing something active with your mates then we've got a great variety of sport based activities for you to choose from. Naturally we've got football and golf as well as footie tickets, but we've also got slightly weirder alternatives such as bubble football if you fancy something a bit different from the norm!
Put the pedal to the metal and go through the gears as you and the boys take your choice of a range of vehicles. Because have we got a range for you to choose from! We've got slick speedy karts that'll leave you whooping deliriously and big bulky tanks that could crush a Volkswagen Beatle like a bug. Whatever your stag vehicle of choice is – chances are we've got it.
Ah, the main event - this will get messy. Because if there's one thing we hate here at The Stag Company, it's a lazy itinerary for a stag night. If you think a casual night out with the lads at your local is going to cut the mustard then you're wrong: it won't. It's a stag do son, which means you need to go all out and party like alcohol is going to be made illegal tomorrow. So fix up, look sharp and brace yourself for a night that'll become a stag legend.
There'll be plenty of time for back-slapping and bromantic declarations of love later on in the night. Because in the first instance there's no better way to mark the groom-to-be's rite of passage down the aisle than by firing projectiles at him (or at targets depending on what you book!) on some distant battlefield. After all, we're pretty sure most grooms would appreciate an activity that's gonna help them release that nervous tension!
These activities all have one thing in common: they will get the blood pumping as you flirt with great heights and attempt to conquer your own fears, inhibitions and sometimes even Mother Nature herself. We've got an exciting assortment of activities to suit every type of adventurous stag, whether it's scrambling across cliff faces, conquering a gruelling assault course or leaping "eyes open" out of planes – you'll find it all on this page!
We Brits do love to be beside the seaside but sometimes just looking at the sea isn't enough, you want to conquer the waves and ride them out. We've got high speed machines that'll have you and your mates racing across the waters like hyperactive loons and more relaxed activities like fishing and boat cruises. So whatever you're watery based stag wishes are - we'll do our best to fulfil them!
We live with a fairly mild climate here in Britain, which is fortunate seeing as the country grinds to an absolute halt at the thought of a snowflake. However some of the cities we offer here at The Stag Company revel in the stuff, so if you're in the hunt for something a little different from the usual fare and don't mind getting a bit chilly - then you're in the right place. So take a look below and remember what your Mum used to tell you: don't forget to take a coat, a wooly hat and wear some gloves, dammit!
