The Journal Sentinel sports staff brings Milwaukee Bucks fans the latest news, notes and analysis
Bucks falter in fourth, lose to Thunder, 109-99
A strong effort by the Milwaukee Bucks went to waste in a flurry of fourth-quarter turnovers, and the Oklahoma City Thunder prevailed, 109-99, on Saturday night at the BMO Harris Bradley Center.
Kevin Durant finished with 30 points to pace the Thunder (54-20) while Russell Westbrook added a triple-double with 22 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists.
Thunder forward Serge Ibaka blocked eight shots to take a firm grip on the league shot-blocking title, while the Bucks' Larry Sanders failed to register a block. Kevin Martin had 17 points and Ibaka added 16.
Ersan Ilyasova paced the Bucks (35-37) with 29 points and 14 rebounds while J.J. Redick added 14 points and Sanders had 12 points and 10 rebounds.
Ekpe Udoh posted his first career double-double as he scored 14 points and grabbed 11 rebounds.
The Bucks' magic number to clinch a playoff spot remained at four as Philadelphia beat Charlotte to move within 5 ½ games of Milwaukee for the final Eastern Conference playoff spot.
Milwaukee took a 92-87 lead in the fourth quarter after Marquis Daniels hit a three and followed with a two-pointer.
But the Thunder responded with a 12-0 run, getting six points from Nick Collison during that stretch to take a 99-92 lead.
A tip-in by Ibaka pushed Oklahoma City's lead to 101-94 and Durant drilled a three from the right wing to make it 104-94 with 2:47 remaining.
The Thunder shot 53.3% from the field (40 of 75) and was productive at the free throw line, sinking 25 of 32 attempts.
Oklahoma City pulled within two games of idle San Antonio for the top spot in the Western Conference.The Thunder outscored the Bucks in the fourth quarter, 26-16.

Life was good. Until it wasn't. Because something that I can only refer to as stroke-like symptoms started to take over me, seemingly out of nowhere. A Mumford & Son's song blared in the background (I had just come home from a month long tour across the southern U.S. with them,) as I started to lose feeling in the left side of my body. First in my hand, palm and up my arm, then in my foot, calf, thigh and entire left leg. I wanted to tell my guy that something was happening to me, but I struggled to get any tangible words out of my mouth.
I read a story online this week about a six-year-old boy named Jaden Hayes, who lost both his parents and decided to do something positive, rather than give in to his grief. When we're feeling sad or stressed or over-heated, we should remember Jaden Hayes, and be inspired to be our best self rather than our crankiest self.
True success of an entrepreneur comes not from their ideas, but from their inner mindset and character traits. It takes a certain type of leader to endure startup life and persevere past the hurdles that will inevitable lay ahead in their efforts to inspire disruption or bring a new innovation to life.
nd I'd give myself a solid 8/10 at life. It's just that remaining 2/10 that's sometimes missing. This other 20 per cent is, in my opinion, the zest of life. It's those moments you get caught up in and find yourself wondering if this is really your life -- is it actually possible to be this excruciatingly happy?
Everyone deserves to have a day to feel special. Luxury can be associated with expensive outings, taste and experiences; however it can also be inspired by a sense of self worth and the way people make us feel. A life of luxury may seem out of your reach; but money isn't the only way to make you feel like you are worth thousands.
First it was low-fat, then it was low-carb, now gluten-free, dairy-free, sugar-free, grass-fed, organic, whatever. There will always be a new food trend on the radar, and if something works for you, then, by all means, incorporate it into your life, but don't be confused or confounded by what to eat. Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.
The definition of a traditional career does not lend well in today's innovation and technology driven economy. Workplaces are changing. No longer must you come into the office everyday for business meetings when you can stay at home and with a click of a button, video conference with executives around the world.
I'm not under any false assumptions that our society's completely unrealistic, unproductive and unhealthy beauty standard will change anytime soon, but I do think that we can start by calling it something different in our own lives. We can change our script, our vocabulary, our vernacular; change our own points of view, if not that of others.
Every year, I don't run or bike for roughly a month. Transitioning back into in-season training initially seems impossible. I used to feel so frustrated and overwhelmed by how hard this transition was. Now I remind myself that after about two weeks working out, sleeping, eating well and getting regular massages, I will feel normal again.
I consider myself pretty lucky to be able to say that my best friend is also my boyfriend. With all that said, it isn't always dinner by flowers and candlelight. In fact, it's more often than not a daily negotiation of the cleaning duties. So, in one week...I discovered the formula for the age old question of how to get any man to do the dishes.
I realize that not everyone is going to look at exercising as the highlight of their day or the passion of their life. Although there are things about working out that some may never enjoy there are a few things that will make the experience a little easier to digest. Here are some small, easy changes we can all make to start enjoying the gym a just a little more.
I declared that I would live only in the now for 30 days. This meant I could not think about the past or the future -- I would only focus on what was happening in the moment. Sounds easy, but what an awakening experience. If I started to think about how something went wrong in the past or worry about something in the future, I would stop myself and release the thought and get back to the present.

Now it blisters like newly-wed paint,
now it works itself into cartography—
my infidelity smeared across the screen.
Waldseemüller's America, that gash of it,
the boat that found it, the parrot
bearing its legend, the tiny growing parts.
We can make out stray words. Santa Maria!
Rio! Caput! Here Lake Michigan
will settle in, red and blue states rise up,
here ribbon-scar the Mason-Dixon line.
"Your baby's fists have already begun
to open and close!" the technician cries.
My husband cannot meet my eye.
Service Not Included
Who's to thank for the buckets of lavender thrown open beside
for the foam-clouds on twin cappuccinos,
for the carved boxes that hold sugar,
for the child telling reams about superheroes,
for the darkening sky of the waiter,
at a café in the shopping centre
when you cannot speak for your tears?
Hospital coffee was never so kindly, so quick to make believe.
On the morning I wed, you and I
came here to the shopping centre
and scented women pared our nails in a scented room.
Who's to thank for their cool hands
working away in our memories? Here, your hands
are out of my reach. You must have thought it but,
when my son was born howling and writhing
and thrust to my skin, how your own son left the room
and the snap they left you to hold of him. Your hands
are smaller than mine, and neat.
How they told you the hospital name and you thought
that dun square of Monopoly board,
made your way there by a route you'd score
into your palms by the end; saved change
for the car park; packed a Thermos, perhaps.
Now families glide about the shopping centre
in neons fresh from invention, eyes shiny with gratitude,
music tasteful and tender.
You must have thought, when my son has made strange,
raged at being made come asunder,
of all the times you had to leave the hospital
and drive home to your daughters.
Of all the skin we need to touch and are not touched,
of all the starving to the touch, the familiar injustices.
Spread coins thick across the tables,
go about the shopping centre,
praise the coffee, the kindness of the escalator, haircuts,
the beautiful, the beautiful, the familiar,
the comfortable weather. Who's to thank? Who's to
praise for your hands, who sits up there in head office
taking our minds off the past waiting rooms and coffee docks?

Video:Yahoo's Old Fashion Take on Value of Journalism: Scoops Drive a Media Business
LOS ANGELES --Hiring a small group of enterprising sports reporters four years, who grabbed headlines with scoops, was a clear indication of the value of original journalism in driving traffic and attracting advertising dollars.
The traditional value of enterprising reporting is central to the evolving media strategy at Yahoo, according says Jimmy Pitaro who head media content at Yahoo! The company is hiring journalists for several beats including news, finance and entertainment..
I interviewed him last week at the All Things Digital conference.
In this video interview, he explains the other element of content creation: crowd-sourced material. He says that Shine, the popular women's site, is made up of one third of user-generated content.
He talks about how the recent acquisition of Associated Content will allow Yahoo to scale quickly in many special interest and general topic areas.

Really like that he did a hands on exam and explained everything.
DR Isaac was very good at finding what was wrong. I have polymyalgia Rheumatica
-Great Staff-Caring-HILARIOUS!!-I recommend Him!!
I've been going to Dr. Isaac for almost 10 yrs. now. He has always been compassionate and patient with me. He is the first Dr. that I have every felt really comfortable with. Sometimes we get talking about so many things we forget why I'm there. Dr. Isaac and his staff have been very helpful with my difficult Ins. Co. and getting my medication. I just wish they could find a cure for RA.
While he may not have the best bedside manner, I fee the doctor knows what he is talking about.
Overall the first visit was diappointing. The time spent on the actual consultation was so minimal and every question I asked was redirected with a question he had for me. Not recommended from this point.
This guy thinks he knows everything.
Dr. Isaac is the best doctor out there, he has a great staff, he has a good sense of humor, and he cares so much about each patient I recommend seeing him!!
Good Dr... Wanted to help and actually has a sense of humor. I like him, I'll continue to go to him!
I would not see this person at all. He is full of himself, his nurses are sub-par, just a horrible experience!

MEAD — The Schlagel family has been pulling sugar beets out of the ground in and around this northern Colorado community for 100 years, but it's never seen a yield quite like this year's.
"Personally, I think this is the best crop I've seen in my whole life," said 56-year-old Paul Schlagel, who stood Friday in a 180-acre rolling field of beets that will soon be packaged as sugar for dinner tables.
A combination of science, market conditions and a few breaks from the weather have made this fall's harvest in Colorado of several different crops the biggest and most profitable in a long time.
In addition to beets, this year's wheat crop is the largest since 1985, thanks to a wet spring and new advances in wheat production.
With a record-high average yield per acre of 45 bushels, Colorado's winter wheat crop is expected to reach 105.75 million bushels, according to Colorado Wheat, a statewide group that tracks trends for wheat growers.
Wheat prices paid to Colorado farmers, meanwhile, are projected to average up to $5.23 per bushel, compared with $4.50 last year.
"This makes people happy; this makes people optimistic," said Glenda Mostek, spokeswoman for Colorado Wheat.
Severe drought in Eastern Europe that led to a ban by Russia on wheat exports from that nation helped spur demand for Colorado winter wheat. A 42-year effort to breed a variety of wheat that thrives at higher altitudes also is paying off mightily, Mostek said.
"Our average yield per acre — 45 bushels — is now the same as Kansas," she said. "That makes a huge difference."
The same is true for corn farmers. A decision by the Environmental Protection Agency this month to allow the use of more corn-heavy ethanol fuel mix prompted the Department of Agriculture to estimate that corn will be grown in the state on 1.2 million acres, an increase of 220,000 acres from 2009.
The price of corn, meanwhile, could go up to $6.50 per bushel.
"Yield estimates are generally very good from farmers that finished harvesting or are in progress," said Mark Sponsler, executive direct for the Colorado Corn Growers Association.
As for consumers, all that good news for farmers doesn't necessarily affect what families pay at the grocery store.
Most of the cost of a loaf of bread is due to packaging and marketing, Mostek said.
"The actual wheat in the price of bread is responsible for about 5 to 7 cents of what you pay," she said.
But the high yields, high production and better prices will trickle down to Colorado cities and towns, say agriculture officials. They note that in 2009, agriculture and the food industry in the state generated $20 billion in purchasing, rents paid, labor hiring and cash receipts for crops and livestock.
"Agriculture is a huge industry in this state, and too many people underestimate its impact," said Norm Dalsted, a Colorado State University agriculture economist.
A farmer makes money, then spends it on tractor repairs, groceries, fuel and other commodities, Dalsted said.
"When farmers have money, they spend it — new cars, pickups — it's the best and most solid stimulus we have," he said.
Fowler School District superintendent Steven Grasmick — the son of a farmer — said that when farmers do well, whole communities stay together and thrive.
"They pay a lot of taxes, and that goes to the school system, and that makes it a lot easier on the rest of us," Grasmick said.
But farming — even in the best years — is full of feast and famine.
Cattle ranchers and dairy farmers will have to pay more now for the corn they need for feed. And some Weld County beet growers won't have anything to market this year because heavy spring hailstorms wiped out about 1,000 acres of their crop.
Other beet farmers, including Schlagel, have come under heavy fire because they grow genetically modified sugar beets, which some activists say is a danger to the food supply.
But, Schlagel said, there is a reason that 95 percent of the 1.15 million acres of sugar beets planted nationwide have been bred to resist the weedkiller Roundup.
"For years and years, we'd have more weeds in our sugar-beet fields than sugar beets," Schlagel said. "That's what makes production so much easier and better now."
So much so that Schlagel and his family are happy to keep farming.
"It's one of the few things now that is recession-proof," he said. "It's been good to us for 100 years."

Such a lovely company - purely vegan from day #1Posted on 07 / 01 / 2013
I have been drinking their yummy soya milk for the past 35+ years - first in tins - later in tetra-packs.
A truly superb company!
Some notes -
Donald Watson in a 2002 interview - "......of all the many people who have subscribed to the vegan cause, I hesitate to single out anyone, but I would say Leslie Cross and Arthur Ling must be put in the records as being the two outstanding, faithful, contributors to our cause."
Arthur Ling joined 'The Vegan Society' soon after it had been formed. With Leslie Cross & others, he formed 'The Plantmilk Society' as a sub-committee of 'The Vegan Society'.
~ To address a practical hurdle on some people's path to veganism, Cross founded the Plantmilk Society in 1956. After five years this effort gave rise to Plamil, a company that in 1965 began selling a canned soy milk concentrate in London shops. ~
In its Memorandum & Articles it is written that Plamil Foods should always make only vegan products.
Plamil Foods regularly advertised in The Vegan and was the first user of the Vegan Society's Trademark in 1990.

Rangers Reeling, But We're Not Worried. Yet. Right?
The Texas Rangers haven't won a game since last Wednesday. They've dropped four in a row - including a 7-2 Labor Day thrashing at the hands of the Blue Jays in Toronto and one of the wildest, worst endings to a game you ever did see on Sunday in Minnesota - and seven of their last nine. Pitching ace Cliff Lee will miss his start tonight (Scott Feldman gets the ball) with a bad back, MVP candidate Josh Hamilton will miss at least another week with bad ribs, set-up man Frankie Francisco is on the shelf and shortstop Elvis Andrus has sore hamstrings.
Oh yeah, and their lead in the American League West is down to seven games, smallest its been since August 19.
Translation: Don't worry.
I fully realize that bigger leads have been lost in shorter times, and I remember the Rangers' nine-game lead on September 11, 1996 dwindling to one before they nailed down their first division title. With injuries and rest, this thing will get scary before it gets sealed.
But unless the Rangers pull a San Diego Padres' el foldo and lose 10 in a row, it's still sealed.
Look at it this way, despite their current funk the Rangers could go 12-13 over their last 25 and - just to force a tie and a one-game playoff - the A's would have to go 19-6. Not that the Rangers aren't - in the big picture - just a .500 team living off that one red-hot streak in June, but 19-6 seems irrational for an Oakland team that's still one game under .500 for the season.
Still, that four-game series September 23-26 in Oakland might be juicy after all, eh?

The Text of the Body: Art, Technology, Slavery. and Empire in 19th-century Visual Culture (NeMLA Seminar Session)
full name / name of organization:
Joy Bracewell / U of Georgia
contact email:
42nd Annual Convention
This seminar session* seeks papers on the intersections between transatlantic representations and discourses of slavery and empire in the 19th century. How did aesthetics/new print and photographic developments affect the ways in which enslaved persons/colonial subjects were portrayed? What sorts of national investments do such images and their publishing contexts imply? How do these representations elide/align with constructions of self by enslaved or subjugated persons? 300-500 word abstracts and brief bios to Joy Bracewell, email@example.com by September 1.
*In lieu of the panel format, the 5-10 participants for the seminar will complete and circulate their papers prior to the convention. Instead of reading papers, participants give a brief presentation of their work, with the session focused on structured exchange between the participants.

It sometimes seems like all society's issues eventually land in the U.S. Supreme Court. Take a couple of recent cases, one a decision on prayer at town council meetings that took up an issue dating to the country's founding, the other a hearing on the challenge smartphones and other 21st technology pose to our right of privacy.
The town hall case illustrated how petty, peevish and inconsequential are some of the complaints about religion in the public square. The town of Greece in Upstate New York is a mostly Christian community and its town board begins sessions with a prayer, almost always delivered by Christian clergy, though other faiths have on occasion delivered prayers.
Predictably a couple of residents complained that the practice violated the First Amendment prohibition against government establishing a religion. These two individuals felt, according to the high court's opinion, "excluded and disrespected."
Nowhere was it alleged that actual harm was done. The town board didn't declare Greece officially Christian. It didn't pass laws on religion, it approved no resolutions discriminating on the basis of sect or doctrine or targeting followers of other faiths, it issued no edicts or orders offensive to the First Amendment. The prayers, while sectarian in invoking Jesus Christ, did not disparage other beliefs or proselytize. They were strictly ceremonial.
The only offense, to two people, was that the prayer was Christian.
This is an illuminating example of today's grievance culture. Too many people, mostly on the left but some of the right, wear their feelings and sensibilities on their sleeves and are ever ready, even eager, to be offended.
In writing the majority opinion affirming the right of the board to open with a Christian prayer, Justice Anthony Kennedy got to the heart of the matter: "Adults often encounter speech they find disagreeable . . . Legislative bodies do not engage in impermissible coercion merely by exposing constituents to prayer they would rather not hear and in which they need not participate."
Kennedy observed that the practice of legislative prayer dated to the very first Congress. Unfortunately, this was a 5-4 decision, meaning the high court is just one vote away from affirming a petty grievance culture and a secular left dedicated to wiping religion out of public life.
While that case involved an issue as old as the Republic, the justices recently took up one possible only in today's Internet Age. They heard arguments on behalf of two characters who are unsympathetic, one an apparent gang-banger and the other a drug dealer, but their cases raise an issue important to modern lifestyles: Can police search the contents of your cellphone without a warrant?
When you exit your home, you leave your right to privacy there and if arrested, police can search your billfold, pocketbook or briefcase. Prosecutors say the rules should be no different for your cellphone. In fact, smartphones may contain information you deliberately make public, say, via a Facebook app.
Yet, there's a persuasive argument that technology enables us to carry in our pockets information that previously we would have restricted to our homes. The questioning of the justices seemed to indicate they are open to the idea that technology advances our zone of privacy and might limit searches to serious crimes. Justices Antonin Scalia and Elena Kagan, at opposite ends of the ideological spectrum, agreed that it would be absurd for police to be able to search the iPhone of someone arrested for not wearing a seat belt.
Once again, the court must separate the trivial from the significant.

Live Monitoring found at netc.com...
Our mission is provide free radiation monitoring information from private and government sites to the public. We have about 300 radiation monitoring sites across the United States and Japan and will add more sites in other parts of the Earth, when they become available.
The weapons production reactors were decommissioned at the end of the Cold War, but the decades of manufacturing left behind 53 million US gallons (200,000 m3) of high-level radioactive waste,[5] an additional 25 million cubic feet (710,000 m3) of solid radioactive waste, 200 square miles (520 km2) of contaminated groundwater beneath the site[6] and occasional discoveries of undocumented contaminations that slow the pace and raise the cost of cleanup.[7]
The Hanford site represents two-thirds of the nation's high-level radioactive waste by volume.[8] Hanford is currently the most contaminated nuclear site in the United States[9][10] and is the focus of the nation's largest environmental cleanup.[2] While most of the current activity at the site is related to the cleanup project, Hanford also hosts a commercial nuclear power plant, the Columbia Generating Station, and various centers for scientific research and development, such as the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and the LIGO Hanford Observatory.

Watch alcohol intake and weigh yourself before and after vacation, researcher suggests
Allow time for helmet shopping. Be prepared to go to more than one store if the first store doesn't have the right size.
Make sure the helmet meets safety standards. Look for a U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) sticker inside the helmet. All helmets sold after 1999 must carry this sticker. Keep in mind that bike visors are not rated for shattering in a fall.
The helmet should fit your head. That means it should touch your head at all points, and feel comfortably snug, but not tight. You should not be able to move the helmet more than about an inch in any direction. You should not be able to pull it off your head. Make sure the junction of the front and back straps is under the ears.
Make sure the helmet protects the forehead.
Besides a good fit, your helmet should have air vents to help cool your head during a ride. The larger the front vents, the better the flow of air on your head.
If you have long hair, you might consider a helmet with a "ponytail port." If you have no hair, you might consider a helmet with minimal top vents to avoid tan lines on the top of your head.

Today, for the first time since April 24, the Nuggets practiced at Pepsi Center. After a week away (and a film session Wednesday), the Nuggets regrouped in preparation for Game 3 on Friday.
Asked what are the biggest things the Nuggets (down 2-0 to the Lakers) need to turn around, coach George Karl gave a laundry list:
"Rebound. Control the pain better. Be aggressive on Kobe (Bryant) and (Andrew) Bynum's touches. Run. Pass the ball more freely. Get a crazy crowd in the building. Hit them first."
Karl said he did like the way he team refocused in Game 3's third quarter, after being down 19 points. Denver showed fight. Now, the Nuggets have to find a way to muster a win in Game 3 — or risk going down 3-0 into Sunday's Game 4.
Blog: Nuggets Ink
The Denver Post's Benjamin Hochman and Chris Dempsey post analysis, notes, video and more on this blog dedicated to the Denver Nuggets.
"Everybody wants to talk about Bynum, but Pau Gasol is playing a game right now that's, I mean, there's not many 7-foot playmakers in basketball and he's a playmaker," Karl said of Gasol, who has 13 assists in the series. "He makes efficient decisions, he executes in space in the court, he gets dunks for them. He's Andre Miller-like - he gets dunks for his teammates. And dunks are powerful. He's contagious."

Geraniums may be grown from seed may be sown early indoors and transplanted outside after frost, or grown from potted plants.
Sowing Seed Indoors:
- Sow indoors 10-12 weeks before last frost
- Sow seeds ¼ inch deep into individual containers filled with seed-starting formula.
- Keep the soil moist at 70-75 degrees
- Seedlings emerge in 7-21 days
- As soon as seedlings emerge, provide plenty of light on a sunny windowsill or grow seedlings 3-4 inches beneath fluorescent plant lights turned on 16 hours per day, off for 8 hours at night. Raise the lights as the plants grow taller. Incandescent bulbs will not work for this process because they will get too hot. Most plants require a dark period to grow, do not leave lights on for 24 hours.
- Seedlings do not need much fertilizer, feed when they are 3-4 weeks old using a starter solution (half strength of a complete indoor houseplant food) according to manufacturer's directions.
- Transplant hardened-off seedlings to the garden after the frost.
- Before planting in the garden, seedling plants need to be "hardened off". Accustom young plants to outdoor conditions by moving them to a sheltered place outside for a week. Be sure to protect them from wind and hot sun at first. If frost threatens at night, cover or bring containers indoors, then take them out again in the morning. This hardening off process toughens the plant's cell structure and reduces transplant shock and scalding.
Planting in the Garden:
- Select a location in full sun with good rich moist, well-drained organic soil.
- Prepare the bed by turning the soil under to a depth of 8 inches. Level with a rake to remove clumps of grass and stones.
- Most plants respond well to soils amended with organic matter. Compost is a wonderful form of organic matter with a good balance of nutrients and an ideal pH level, it can be added to your planting area at any time. If compost is not available, top dress the soil after planting with 1-2 inches of organic mulch, which will begin to breakdown into compost. After the growing season, a soil test will indicate what soil amendments are needed for the following season.
- Plants should stand 12 inches apart in the garden.
- Set level with the surrounding soil. Fill with soil to the top of the root ball. Press soil down firmly with your hand leaving a slight depression around the plant to hold water.
- Water thoroughly, so that a puddle forms in the saucer you have created. This settles the plants in, drives out air pockets and results in good root-to-soil contact.
- Use the plant tag as a location marker.
- Water thoroughly, so that a puddle forms in the saucer you have created. This settles the plants in, drives out air pockets and results in good root-to-soil contact.
- Keep weeds under control during the growing season. Weeds compete with plants for water, space and nutrients, so control them by either cultivating often or use a mulch to prevent their seeds from germinating.
- Mulches also help retain soil moisture and maintain even soil temperatures. For annuals an organic mulch of shredded leaves lends a natural look to the bed and will improve the soil as it breaks down in time. Always keep mulches off a plant's stems to prevent possible rot.
- Keep plants well-watered during the growing season, especially during dry spells. Plants need about 1 of rain per week during the growing season. Use a rain gauge to check to see if you need to add water. It's best to water with a drip or trickle system that delivers water at low pressure at the soil level. If you water with overhead sprinklers, water early in the day so the foliage has time to dry off before evening, to minimize disease problems. Keep the soil moist but not saturated.
- Until plants become established, some protection from extreme winds and direct, hot sunlight may be necessary. Good air movement is also important.
- After new growth appears, a light fertilizer may be applied. Keep granular fertilizers away from the plant crown and foliage to avoid burn injury. Use low rates of a slow release fertilizer such as Flower-tone, as higher rates may encourage root rots.
- Deadhead spent flowers to prolong blooming.
- Monitor for pests and diseases. Check with your local Cooperative Extension Service for pest controls recommended for your area.
- Remove plants after they are killed by frost in fall to avoid disease issues the following year. Geraniums may also be brought indoors and grown as houseplants over the winter.
- Geraniums are perfect for beds, borders, walkways, and containers. Ivy-leafed geraniums cascade, making them ideal for hanging baskets and windowboxes.
- Geraniums may be grown as houseplants over the winter in a sunny location. Over time they may become woody with the flowers smaller. Take stem cuttings to propagate new plants.

Geranium, Summer Showers Mix is rated out of 5 by 4.Rated 4 out of 5 by Maya from I did not have any problems with germination, probably over 90% seeds germinated. The plants grew very nicely and looked beautiful in combination with petunias. However, I wish that they have more blooms.Date published: 2012-12-31Rated 2 out of 5 by LoneDove from Germination Fair There were only about 10 seeds in the packet. It would help if the number of seeds and germination percentage were printed on the catalogue info. I had only 3 seeds germinate.Date published: 2012-05-13Rated 3 out of 5 by catwoman from ivy geranium I ordered 2 packets containing 20 individual seeds total. They were seeded in seed germination potting mix in 20 individual biodegradable pots kept moist. Unfortunately only 7 of the 20 seeds germinated. The seedlings are still small and have not yet produced flowers but look very healthy so far. I have now moved them to hanging baskets and added fertilizer spikes. I am disappointed in the 35% germination rate given the high cost including shipping but am hoping the survivors thrive and flower. I can always propagate more by cuttings once the plants are bigger to make up for the 13 that did not germinate.Date published: 2012-05-10Rated 5 out of 5 by melintdesr from Gorgeous! I loved these flowers! I recieved so many compliments on how great they looked. I really have nothing bad to say about them, just a couple of tips. 1. Germination was excellent, I only had a couple that didn't work; but I would still recommend purchasing more than you think you need, just in case. 2. They are fairly heavy feeders. I used miracle grow once a week and that seemed to be sufficient. 3. They took a lot longer to really take off and cascade in the garden than I would have liked. I recommend starting these a couple of weeks earlier than suggested on the packet. They do last a long time in the garden, though! The picture showing the geraniums in the boxes by our front door was taken in October!Date published: 2010-01-05

The order was what I expected. Shipped fast. Arrived on time. Looks exactly like the picture. Assembly instructions were sparse, but it was nearly self-explanitory. Quality overall is good. During assembly, one brace was not properly drilled and I had to substitute my own screws.

Has anyone traveled on an airplane with their child in their lap? My grandpa just had a heart attack & just found out has emphysema so it's not looking good. His lungs won't make it thru open heart surgery. So i feel like i need to go see him one last time in Nebraska.My mom is already there. If your baby is under 2 they can sit in your lap so i wouldn't have to pay for another ticket. I'm so worried about it though! her being so wiggly or crying & not wanting to stay seated. I'm going alone & she's never been on an airplane! What do you think? Is it doable? There's a 1.5 hr layover in chicago too.
Plane ride with 21 month old on lap
It was night so I thought it would be ok on my own but they can get pretty agitated if they're fighting sleep and over-tired. Which is exactly what happened.
For under 2 hour flights i'd say it's totally do-able. Here are a few advice from my experience:
- tell her everything before you go and explain as you get to the airport, make it an event.
- get a window seat at all cost.
- take one of these tiny strollers if you have one. Last dec I didn't take it and it's HELL in the airport (yes not sure what I was thinking). But remember security, you need to be well organized: one bag that fits it all, the stroller, the kid and that's all. Check in everything else.
- bring enough new "toys" to keep her interested. Toys can be a notebook and 3 pencils, small nesting Tupperware... The best of the best: stickers!!! My daughter re-decorated the plane with them and they were removable so I recycled them for the flight back.
Basically you need to have as many tricks up your sleeve as possible, wait until she exhausted one then get the new one out. Someone told me to get one trick for every 15 mins of flight. If you go by that rule, you're golden. Be inventive it doesn't have to be "baby things" to buy. A few hair clips in a purse, old sunglasses, think small of course.
- if you have a possibility to get new episodes of her favorite cartoons on your phone or other device, that's awesome but I'm sure you'd already think of that. Save it for after take off to avoid the drama of having to put it away.
- bring her favorite snack and a bottle or sippy up for take off and landing. She needs to suck or chew on something.
- be relaxed, if she cries, think of her, not the others, she'll pick up on your anxiety and it will be worth. Seems silly but it works I promise. I apologize but remain calm. Plus you're on short flights so it's not like people NEED to sleep or anything.
- do hold her at all times in case of turbulence you don't want her to hit the ceiling.
If you need to breathe for a minute, you can put her on the floor between your legs to play with the pocket of the seat in front of you.
- in most airport there are play areas for children. So you can locate one then get food and feed her there (if allowed). 1.5 hours, its going to go fast. Make it special, all of her favorite foods and yours :)
Hope this helps.
Have a good trip I'm sure you'll be ok!!
Good luck with you grandpa.
If I were you I wouldn't take the car seat since you have a lay over, you're not sure you'll get a seat free next to you and you only have 2 arms... That would a nightmare in the airport. Just hold her on your lap during take of and landing (over your belt, but real close to you).
During the flight if she can seat next to you great, lift the arm rest and put the seat belt tight on her lap.
Try and get an empty flight and then when you get to the gate, ask the flight attendant to change your seat to one with an empty seat next to you. Then, at least after takeoff and before landing, the 21 month yo can sit next to you.
Sorry to hear about your grandpa :(
Hi Op, I agree with a lot of what everyone has already said. Good tips. I have been on many flights with my son as a lap child. I have experienced it all. International and transcontinental. Unfortunately for me, these were usually very long flights. I agree to try to find a flight with lots of empty seats. Luckily your flight times are pretty short so your child won't really have much time to get bored. If you're really lucky, she could even fall asleep on take-off. My son has only done this twice, lol. But as the other ladies have said, new little toys work wonders to entertain. In your specific situation regarding the car seat. They are cumbersome. If your family has a car seat you can borrow upon arrival, I would leave it at home. If they don't and you chose to bring it with you, (and if you have time) order one of these from amazon.
It's called Traveling Toddler Car Seat Travel Accessory, and is actually only that little tiny T-strap that you see clearly in the first picture. It works great if you're bringing the car seat anyway. Do read the reviews so you know what to expect. You need to figure it out before you leave for your trip, and leave extra time to get through security. You will have to detach it from the carseat to go through security, or hold off attaching it until after you've gone through security.
As far as your layover in chicago. one and a half hours is not a lot of time, so I would not count on the play area. It might take you almost that long to get to your next gate depending on where it is. The layover is my enemy. Believe it or not, the flight is the easy part.
Milk on the plane. If you want your daughter to drink milk, don't expect them to give it to her on the plane. They could, and should have milk, but I have been told on shorter flights that they do not "provide" milk for toddlers. Since then, I bring single milk boxes (like the horizon kind) just in case. You are allowed to bring these through security. Just place them with your child's diaper/food bag and hand it to security seperately explaining it contains the childs food and milk for the flight.
Good luck, and I'm very sorry about your grandfather.
