What are Hardy Succulents?
Hardy Succulents will survive winter temperatures for the vast majority of people living in the United States. Most are hardy to USDA Zone 5 (-20 to -10 F), but can go as low as Zone 3 (-40 to -30 F).
Common Hardy Succulents include: Sempervivum (Hens and Chicks), Sedum (Stonecrops), Jovibarba heuffelii, Delosperma (Ice Plants), Rosularia, and Orostachys.
What are Soft Succulents?
The term "soft succulents" (also known as "tender succulents") covers a broad range of succulents that are less tolerant of cold temperatures than "hardy" succulents. We typically consider plants rated USDA Zone 9 (20 to 30 F) and above to be Soft Succulents, but some plants in the category go as low as Zone 7 (0 to 10 F).
Common Soft Succulents include: Echeveria, Crassula, Jade, Kalanchoe, Aloe, Aeonium, Tender Sedums, and Senecio.
Plant Hardiness
Hardy Succulents
All Hardy Succulents are hardy to USDA Zone 5 (-20 F) unless otherwise noted. Some varieties, such as a number of the Sedum and Jovibarba heuffelii, can be grown in Zone 4 or Zone 3. A number of hardy succulents will change colors or go dormant (lose their leaves) in order to survive the winter cold. Click here for more info on winter changes.
Soft Succulents
Soft Succulent hardiness varies among the different types. All can be grown outside in frost free areas (USDA Zone 10 and higher). Almost everywhere, they can be grown in containers and moved inside for the winter.
However, most of the Soft Succulents which have rosettes of thick fleshy leaves, such as many of the Echeveria, are hardy to at least the mid 20's F (approx. zone 9). Soft Succulents with thinner individual leaves, like most Kalanchoe, can tolerate temperatures just below freezing but are killed back to the roots when the temperature reaches the mid 20's F. This modest hardiness means that they do well outdoors in areas that receive only light frost (such as most coastal locations) and in protected spots in colder areas.
Garden Soil and Potting Mix
Garden Soil
Almost of our listed plants will grow in well drained garden soils. Most will tolerate poor soil if it is well drained. If your soil is not well drained, you should amend it with 50% or more of pumice, perlite, or coarse grit or coarse sand. Bank planting works well with succulents and will help to achieve adequate drainage. A top dressing of sharp sand or grit can greatly reduce problems with crown rot. A 5.10.10 fertilizer is recommended 1-2 times during the spring. Bone meal can be added to the soil at any time.
Potting Mix When Planting in Containers
Good drainage is even more important in containers. We like coir (coco peat) as a potting but it is not readily available. A typical succulent mix is 1/3 to 1/2 organic material such as peat, or compost, and 1/2 to 2/3 drainage materials such as perlite, coarse sand, coarse vermiculite and/or pumice. Adding bone meal and/or a low nitrogen slow release fertilizer such as 2-10-10 is recommended for best results.
Planting and Care
Weather and Sun
All plants may be grown in full sun where summers are cool (80-85 degrees), although Sempervivum do prefer temperatures below 80. Where summer temperatures reach over 85 degrees for extended periods of time, best results are obtained by growing succulents in full morning sun with filtered shade after 1PM or with filtered shade for most of the day. Some succulents, such as the Jovibarba heuffelii and many of the Soft Succulents, keep their color better when it gets hot. If you are planting during a hot time of year, shade for several days to a week immediately after planting.

Winter and Cold Temperatures
Some succulents change very little during the winter months, while others change dramatically. Click here to read our blog article for more information on this topic.
Rule of thumb for all succulents: Water thoroughly, but wait until top half of soil is dry before watering again. Rain counts as a watering. It is particularly important not to over water when it is hot because the plants will be very susceptible to root rot.
Please consider these guidelines only. There are too many different conditions to make a concrete rule for watering that works for everyone. Best bet is to follow the watering rule of thumb, above.
Sempervivum and Jovibarba: Maybe once per week in full sun and high temps, twice per month in cool partial shade environments.
Other succulents: Maybe twice per week in full sun and high temps, once per week in cool partial shade environments.
Sempervivum: Overwatering often results in crown rot, which can be remedied by reducing contact between the crown and wet soil. This is done with a combination of reducing the watering frequency, using a better drained soil or potting soil, and/or planting through a top dressing of coarse, very well drained material so the base of the plant does not rest directly on the soil underneath.
Other succulents: Overwatering generally causes the roots system and the lower part of the shoot to rot. The remaining shoot should be trimmed and dried, then repotted in a better drained media and watered less.
Keep in mind that while most succulents are quite drought tolerant, they still need to be watered each time the soil dries out. Underwatering causes a higher rate of leaf loss or slow death if it persists for too long. These succulents are not cactus!
Related blog post: When should I water my succulents?
Most succulents are excellent container plants, and need only a small amount of well drained potting soil. If stem or crown rot is a problem, then reduce watering frequency and improve the drainage of the potting soil by mixing in additional perlite or pumice or planting in a top dressing of coarse sand or grit.
Most of these succulents also perform well in raised beds and rock gardens where they can be easily viewed.
Air Plants - Tillandsias
Tillandsias are low maintenance plants that only require water. Most varieties do fine with weekly misting/showering, but larger plants need to be dunked in water for 15-20 minutes per week. These plants will thrive in dry or humid climates as long as they receive adequate moisture. Direct sunlight is not recommended, but often times will inspire color with in some varieties. It is important to drain the water out of the crevices. When using Tillandsia for terrariums or art projects they cannot be used with any potting soil or dirt (hence the name Air Plants). Air Plants can be used with sand, sea glass, rocks, pebbles & bark chip. Tillandsia will color up and also spike a bloom that will flower. They also produce pups that create a whole other plant.
Sempervivum will produce multiple chicks per growing season. Some of the cultivars are more prolific than others but you can usually count on at least four chicks per season. You can leave them attached to the mother hen to fill in your garden planting, or you can remove the chicks and start a new planting elsewhere. Chicks will do best when you: Trim the stem to 1", place in a shady area for several days, then plant and water. Do not water again until the soil is dry.
Jovibarba heuffelii
Heuffelii do not produce chicks and must be cut apart with a sharp knife, leaving a part of the carrot-looking root on each section. Let cuttings dry in the shade for several days before planting. Water requirements are the same as for Sempervivum.
Sedums and Soft Succulents
Many of the sedums and soft succulents can be propagated by removing and planting offsets or extra stems, or by replanting cuttings or in some cases just leaves.
Pests and Diseases
The name "Sempervivum" translated means "Live-for-Ever" which makes a statement regarding the durability of the plants. The most common pest is the Aphid. Insecticide soap or a garden spray should take care of the problem. Mealy bugs can be found occasionally, particularly in potted plants. An appropriate insecticide will usually take care of the problem. If they do persist, try a garden systemic.
Other Succulents
Most of the other types of succulents have been basically pest-free in the nursery.

Murphy Oil Corporation announced today the results of its recent Republic of the Congo drilling campaign in the Mer Profonde Sud permit.
The Cobalt Marine #1 exploration well and the Turquoise Marine #3 well both failed to find commercial quantities of hydrocarbons. The Turquoise Marine #4 did find well developed deeper reservoirs with a minor accumulation of oil. All three wells were operated by Murphy West Africa, Ltd. at a 58.82% working interest and were plugged and abandoned. The total net cost of the program is estimated at US$ 36 million and will be expensed in the fourth quarter of 2010.
David M. Wood, Murphy's President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our aim with this three well program was to delineate the area around the Turquoise Marine #1 oil discovery and prove up standalone volumes. These results, while disappointing, will lead us to look into a tie-back to Azurite development option more closely. We continue to evaluate our exploration program in Republic of the Congo and are pleased to be nearing final conclusion on improved fiscal terms."

2) if people are hate'n (like you spell it) then there's a reason. here's a couple
multiplayer is terrible. when it released: 4 players? had that a while ago with MC1/NOVA. 2 maps? what a joke. even now, the multiplayer still is crap when compared to MC2's multiplayer
it's not a 99c game. base price is 4.99 I think. 99c is a sale price. even if 99c was a sale price, MC2 is much much much better and worth the 6 dollars to get a much better experience.
controls are awkward:I realize there are multiple control schemes, but none of them are as fluid as gameloft controls. they have an option for gl controls, but that still is inferior. I realize some people might like them, but a ton of people don't
MC2 looks better. at least IMO, but a lot of people will agree.
there are quite a few flaws in this game, and it does things WORSE than experiences many of us have already had, namely MC2 for the war theme. pointing them out and saying that it's not too great of a game is justified. and please don't bump threads w/o something useful to say....
im back guys!

Flameless Menorah
Source: Babycenter Community
Mom Rating
Ages: 6-8+ years
In: Holidays , Arts & Crafts
Instructions:Turn up the lights for Hanukkah with this festive flameless menorah.
Poster board
Hole puncher
Paper fasteners
Push pin
Time needed: About 1 Hour
1. To make one, first fold a 19- by 28-inch piece of poster board in half widthwise, like a card. With the fold at the top, use a ruler and a pencil to lightly mark a 1- by 6-inch rectangle near the middle of the front of the poster board.
2. Mark four 1- by 5-inch rectangles on each side of the first one, as shown. Cut out the rectangles, then use a hole punch to make a hole about 1/2 inch below each one.
3. Next, cut eight 1 1/2- by 12-inch strips and one 1 1/2- by 14-inch strip from a separate piece of white poster board or card stock. Punch a hole in the center of each strip, then use markers or paints to make a 4 1/2-inch-tall candle with a flame on half of each of the 8 smaller strips. Make a 6-inch-tall candle on the longer strip.
4. Now make the menorah. With markers or paint, create a simple candleholder with 9 arms that extend to the bases of the cutouts, as shown. Let the paint dry, if necessary, then use paper fasteners to secure the candles in place behind the menorah, with the tallest one (the shammes) in the middle. Turn the strips so the blank sides are visible through the cutouts, then pin the back half of the poster board to a wall.
5. To light the menorah for each night of Hanukkah, lift up the front of the poster board and turn a new candle into place.

The Temper Trap
"Sweet Disposition," a U2-styled anthem, was released that September as the band's first single. It cracked the Top 40 in multiple countries and appeared in the Zooey Deschanel film (500) Days of Summer, which helped the band increase its following in America. The Temper Trap responded by touring heavily, making stops at festivals like Glastonbury and Bonnaroo along the way. They also reached out to a number of DJs, producers, and bands, asking them to remix material from the group's debut. The result, Conditions Remixed, was released during the band's fall tour in 2010. In 2012, the band returned with its sophomore effort, the eponymously titled The Temper Trap. Produced by Tony Hoffer (Beck, Air, Goldfrapp), the album featured the single, "Need Your Love." ~ Andrew Leahey

It occurs to me that there is another way to attack this problem, because, well, as you say in your blogs.perl.org post, you don't want the app to die after several hours just because some unknown value has slipped in.
in reply to Re^4: "undef" is not NULL and what to do about it
in thread "undef" is not NULL and what to do about it
My idea is to imitate the taint approach. In the place where data is generated (i.e., DBI) it is flagged as maybe_unknown, then when it is used in other parts of the program the app will croak unless the flag had been removed with some check as is_unknown.
Also, this feature should be easyly disabled, so that it can be used in development but turned off in production environments. For instance:
sub data_generator { return maybe_unknown(@real_data); # attach maybe_unknown flag } sub data_processor { for my $data (@_) { if ($data =~ /foo/) { # in development this line croaks # because $data may be unknown. # Note that it will croak even when $data # is not actually 'unknown'! ... } unless (is_unknown($data)) { # clears the maybe_unknown flag if ($data =~ /foo/) { # does not croak because the maybe_unknown # flag has already been removed from $data ... } } } sub main { data_processor(data_generator); }

Asians in Fashion | Lee Yeon Hee for Harper's Bazaar Korea, July 2013
Posted By Kanara Ty On July 3, 2013 @ 5:43 pm In Art,Asians in Fashion,Culture,Fashion,STYLE,Television | Comments Disabled
Fresh off the hugely popular Korean drama Gu Family Book (also starring Lee Seung Gi and Suzy of girlgroup Miss A), Lee Yeon Hee turns on her seductive charm with this fashion editorial for Harper's Bazaar Korea. I'm quite accustomed to her girl-next-door image (she was also a potential trainee for Girls' Generation), but I feel this editorial finally gave her some more edge, especially with the pixie blonde hairdo.
Check out more shots from her editorial below!

If however, something is negative on this tl then it will ding your score. If everything is positive, do not remove yourself as an AU. You could potentially take a major hit to your scores. By the way, do you know your FICO scores.

International Cars and Motors Ltd., who are most famous for their Rhino compact SUV, are currently rumored to be in talks with Chinese manufacturer Great Wall Motors to bring in a special SUV for the Indian market. The Chinese car maker has witnessed most success with its Haval SUV which sold 140,000 units across the globe in 2010. If what is suspected is to be true, then Indian customers might be offered this very same SUV. As we already know the low cost SUV space is already heating up in the country with almost all car makers now offering products in this segment, so it's no surprise that ICML are trying to get a foothold in it as well. The Haval SUV features a 2.4 litre petrol engine that can produce a very healthy 134bhp, and it also comes with a diesel 2.5 litre that can produce 107bhp. However we most likely suspect that the diesel variant will be the only variant to come to India at a price range similar to the Mahindra XUV500 and Tata Aria.

His high-speed police escort from Dulles airport to his show at Constitution Hall had Charlie Sheen giddy. Rocker Jon Bon Jovi got an escort too. So did the Red Sox, Cowboys and Giants.
MPD Chief Cathy Lanier initially said - and reasserted Friday - that police escorts are for the president, vice president and visiting heads of state.
She called for an internal investigation, stating someone did not follow procedure approving an escort for Sheen. But earlier this week, the chief acknowledged some celebrities do get escorts.
"We've never said no celebrities," she said. "You can't have a policy that says there is never a time."
Since many of the celebrities cover the cost of the escorts, some residents wonder what the big deal is.
"To give them police escorts - ah I think it is ok," said Lawanda Saunder, a District resident.

And while we do that, to ease the financial crisis, we could make education optional/private (and expensive!) so children can work from 5 years of age again, take away the NHS and only Private Hospitals will be allowed - or even just ban medicine! That'll kill off the sick money-leeches. Ooh also, a communist country would save the Gov a bit of money with everyone having the same wage and whatever. And scrap benefits.*

I only suggested it because it certifiably works at slashing population growth, if you put the will of the people into achieving it.
Take China as a case study: people went along with it at the time, but it's had such a negative effect on families that they're now relaxing the policy a bit.
OK, so if every family only had one child that would slow the growth of the population, but I subscribe to the "necessity is the mother of invention" school of thought - the one child policy is not the answer, finding new ways of coping with a larger population is.
But... But where would we get those awesome Christmas jumpers from, if there aren't any more old people in the world?

(Original post by The_resurrection)
What an utterly ridiculous comparison. Children are the next working generation who will bring a lot of good things to the world in the future, old people have lived their lives and only offer a burden to the world.
Last I checked, old people aren't exempt from paying taxes, if that's what you're trying to get at.
I think this is a pretty good argument for compulsory euthanasia. It wasn't really supposed to be taken seriously, but if there are people out there who think it might be a good idea, then they can knock themselves out.

Question from a reader --
"I have a project that needs to be done in 5 days. I've made solid progress on it.. but definitely will need to deathmarch / burn the midnight oil as you call it to get it done.
I still need to finish content creation, create videos, and upload them to the site. As with any project.. it's hard to say "I'm Done".. though I know shipping is necessary.
Any recommendations?
On my wall I have these reminders
1. Eat properly.
2. Drink enough water.
3. Good sleep schedule.
4. Decide on the most important thing to do the night before.
5. Reviewing and working on things first thing in the morning.
6. Limit alcohol, sugar, wheat.
7. Exercise: workout, walk, jog, and sketch.
8. Recharge!"
Okay. On a more positive note, if you're going to be undersleeping (well, try not to, but if you must...) -- take large doses of Vitamin C. If you start to get a little ill, you might consider taking a small amount of Tylenol and decently flavored non-narotic cough drops towards the end. Maybe it's an old wives' tale, and maybe not, but my grandmother was a nurse and she was always recommended heavy on Vitamin C, Tylenol, and Halls coughdrops when you feel an illness coming on. It seems to work for me. The Vitamin C, at least, is darn useful. Dose up highly on it -- there's no real downside to heavy doses of Vitamin C for a few days.
You'll of course do better if you have an accountability buddy.
You might consider scheduling in a short break or two for around an hour, maybe something that's even highly useful at a scheduled time like talking to a friend who has good perspective, or a mentor.
Be able to switch between different modes of work at different times. As sleep deprivation and exhaustion comes in, natural circadian rhythyms are amplified. You'll feel (relatively) much sharper during your high-awareness and times, and (relatively) much much worse during the low times. Balance what you're doing accordingly.
Very important -- if you have low-level stuff to do (going to the printshop, etc), then make damn sure you don't do it during one of those highly creative times, since you're going to need all you've got.
Don't exercise too heavily unless you're already a highly trained athlete and know your body very well. Heavy exercise usually requires more rest/recovery, and isn't done well on limited sleep/exhaustion.
Loud enjoyable music without lyrics helps stay awake.
So does showering. If you need to think clearer, grab a shower.
Most importantly -- try not to do this, and don't do it very often. Most of life is a marathon, not a sprint. But I know it happens occasionally -- good luck and godspeed. By the way, nobody mistake any of this for medical advice, this is explicitly bad for your health, I'm not advocating any of this (just recognizing that people will and have done it in the past, and describing what I did), and definitely go talk to a physician if you're doing stupid high-exhaustion overwork stuff with any regularity.
Final two pieces of advice:
*Make a list of what bad habits you're picking up, and quit them immediately when this is over.
*Schedule a 3-5 day vacation as soon as the dust clears, literally ASAP, and enjoy it.
I know it's not good to overwork yourself, but I gotta say, that "mental overdrive" you experience when working with a tight deadline can be quite invigorating, at least when used sparingly.
Questions from a reader - this one's about sleep amounts, vitamins, and books.
Hi Sebastian,
I'd like to thank you for writing the blog posts on your website. I just found your blog today, but I see a lot of stuff I think I can use on there.
Thanks, that's nice of you to say and glad you reached out.
I have a few questions about some routine-optimization that you've done, if you'd like to help me out:
Along with exercise and nutrition, sleep is one of the primary determinants of your happiness and wellbeing. If you don't get good sleep, you will not only be tired, but also pessimistic, unmotivated, lazy or even depressed.
Research has shown that self control is a limited resource that is greatly diminished when you're exhausted. If you don't get good sleep, you are less likely to be productive and stick to your good habits (such as exercise). You are also more likely to do things that you know are bad for you (such as eating sweets).
Good REM sleep plays a critical role in the development of long term memories. If you're trying to learn anything at all, you better make sure you get enough high quality sleep.
Proper sleep is also essential for maintaining a robust immune system. If you want to be happy, healthy, smart and productive, you have must make sure you get good sleep.
Do you think that your physical health and emotional wellbeing can be considered in isolation? Think again. They both come from the same body, and they both require that you sleep well.
