Student Photographer Claims Falling Bear Photos Were Infringed
You may not know the name of photographer Andy Duann, but you may have seen his work. Duann, a photographer with the CU Independent, the student paper of the University of Colorado Boulder, photographed the bear that fell out of the tree on the school campus after it was tranquilized by wildlife officials (landing gently on some pads below). The CU Independent distributed his images to the Associated Press (AP), the Denver Post, the Colorado Daily and other outlets. As the Poynter.org mediawire reported on Friday, Duann claimed that the school had no right to resell the images, because he holds the copyright.
Today Poynter reports that, in light of Duann's complaint, the AP has yanked his falling-bear photos, and issued an advisory to its members to scrub the pics from their archives.
What's at issue here is whether the student photographer is considered an employee of the university's paper—and thus his images are automatically "works for hire"—or an independent contractor—and thus retains copyright to the images unless he's signed a work-for-hire agreement. The faculty advisor to the paper says Duann's an employee, but an attorney for the Student Press Law Center says no. A student is not in an employee/employer relationship with his school, and federal law requires a specific work-for-hire contract, not a general understanding, for the copyright to be transferred from the creator. (The attorney, Adam Goldstein, also provides a succinct and clear explanation of when work-for-hire does and does not apply. You might find it useful the next time a client hires you for an assignment and says, "But why don't we own the copyright?")
Poynter reporter Andrew Beaujon explains that as soon as Duann saw his photo on the Washington Post and elsewhere, he headed to the university law school to find out his options.
Hey, don't say the young photographers of tomorrow don't understand their intellectual property rights!
You can read the whole saga, including the story of how Beaujon got inadvertently involved in the copyright dispute, at Poynter.org/latest-news/mediawire. You can see other photos of the bear in mid-air, not taken by Duann, here.
Update: Some copyright information for student photographers has been posted at Student Press Law Center, splc.org.

Cervical cancer is a type of cancer that occurs in the cells of the cervix — the lower part of the uterus that connects to the vagina.
Various strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV), a sexually transmitted infection, play a role in causing most cervical cancer.
When exposed to HPV, a woman's immune system typically prevents the virus from doing harm. In a small group of women, however, the virus survives for years, contributing to the process that causes some cells on the surface of the cervix to become cancer cells.
You can reduce your risk of developing cervical cancer by having screening tests and receiving a vaccine that protects against HPV infection.
Early-stage cervical cancer generally produces no signs or symptoms.
Signs and symptoms of more-advanced cervical cancer include:
Make an appointment with your doctor if you have any signs or symptoms that concern you.
Cervical cancer begins when healthy cells acquire a genetic change (mutation) that causes them to turn into abnormal cells.
Healthy cells grow and multiply at a set rate, eventually dying at a set time. Cancer cells grow and multiply out of control, and they don't die. The accumulating abnormal cells form a mass (tumor). Cancer cells invade nearby tissues and can break off from a tumor to spread (metastasize) elsewhere in the body.
It isn't clear what causes cervical cancer, but it's certain that HPV plays a role. HPV is very common, and most women with the virus never develop cervical cancer. This means other factors — such as your environment or your lifestyle choices — also determine whether you'll develop cervical cancer.
The type of cervical cancer that you have helps determine your prognosis and treatment. The main types of cervical cancer are:
Sometimes, both types of cells are involved in cervical cancer. Very rarely, cancer occurs in other cells in the cervix.
Risk factors for cervical cancer include:
Make an appointment with your doctor if you have any signs or symptoms that worry you. If you're thought to have cervical cancer, you may be referred to a doctor who specializes in treating gynecologic cancers (gynecologic oncologist).
Here's some information to help you get ready for your appointment and what to expect from your doctor.
In addition to the questions that you've prepared to ask your doctor, don't hesitate to ask other questions that occur to you.
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions. Being ready to answer them may make time to go over points you want to spend more time on. You may be asked:
Cervical cancer that is detected early is more likely to be treated successfully. Most guidelines suggest that women begin screening for cervical cancer and precancerous changes at age 21.
Screening tests include:
Pap test. During a Pap test, your doctor scrapes and brushes cells from your cervix, which are then examined in a lab for abnormalities.
A Pap test can detect abnormal cells in the cervix, including cancer cells and cells that show changes that increase the risk of cervical cancer.
If cervical cancer is suspected, your doctor is likely to start with a thorough examination of your cervix. A special magnifying instrument (colposcope) is used to check for abnormal cells.
During the colposcopic examination, your doctor is likely to take a sample of cervical cells (biopsy) for laboratory testing. To obtain tissue, your doctor may use:
If the punch biopsy or endocervical curettage is worrisome, your doctor may perform one of the following tests:
If your doctor determines that you have cervical cancer, you'll have further tests to determine the extent (stage) of your cancer. Your cancer's stage is a key factor in deciding on your treatment.
Staging exams include:
Stages of cervical cancer include:
Treatment for cervical cancer depends on several factors, such as the stage of the cancer, other health problems you may have and your preferences. Surgery, radiation, chemotherapy or a combination of the three may be used.
Early-stage cervical cancer is typically treated with surgery to remove the uterus (hysterectomy). A hysterectomy can cure early-stage cervical cancer and prevent recurrence. But removing the uterus makes it impossible to become pregnant.
Your doctor may recommend:
Minimally invasive surgery may be an option for early-stage cervical cancer.
Surgery that preserves the possibility of becoming pregnant also may be an option, if you have very early-stage cervical cancer without lymph node involvement.
Radiation therapy uses high-powered energy beams, such as X-rays, to kill cancer cells. Radiation therapy may be used alone or with chemotherapy before surgery to shrink a tumor or after surgery to kill any remaining cancer cells.
Radiation therapy can be given:
Premenopausal women may stop menstruating and begin menopause as a result of radiation therapy. If you might want to get pregnant after radiation treatment, ask your doctor about ways to preserve your eggs before treatment starts.
Chemotherapy uses medications, usually injected into a vein, to kill cancer cells. Low doses of chemotherapy are often combined with radiation therapy, since chemotherapy may enhance the effects of the radiation. Higher doses of chemotherapy are used to control advanced cervical cancer that may not be curable.
Follow-up care
After you complete treatment, your doctor will recommend regular checkups. Ask your doctor how often you should have follow-up exams.
No one can be prepared for a cancer diagnosis. You can, however, try to manage the shock and fear you're feeling by taking steps to control what you can about your situation.
Every woman deals with a cervical cancer diagnosis in her own way. With time, you'll discover what helps you cope. Until then, you can start to take control by attempting to:

Here's a mouthwatering dessert that's sure to impress family and friends. Not only does it taste wonderful with its chocolate cookie crust, rich creamy cheesecake and tangy raspberry center and topping...it also looks lovely!—Peggy Frazier, Indianapolis, Indiana
- 2 cups chocolate wafer crumbs
- 1/3 cup butter, melted
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 2-1/2 cups fresh or frozen unsweetened raspberries, thawed
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 3 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 egg whites
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 to 3 tablespoons orange juice
- 1-1/2 cups fresh or frozen unsweetened raspberries, thawed
- Combine the first three ingredients; press into bottom and 1-1/2 in. up sides of a greased 9 in. springform pan. Chill 1 hour or until firm.
- In a blender, cover and process raspberries until pureed. Press through a sieve; discard seeds. Add water if necessary to measure 1 cup.
- In a small saucepan, combine sugar and cornstarch. Stir in raspberry juice; bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat; stir in lemon juice and set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, flour and vanilla until smooth. Add egg whites; beat on low just until blended. Stir in cream.
- Pour half into crust. Top with 3/4 cup raspberry sauce (cover and refrigerate remaining sauce). Carefully spoon remaining filling over sauce.
- Bake at 375° for 35-40 minutes or until center is nearly set. Remove from oven; immediately run a knife around pan to loosen crust. Cool on wire rack 1 hour.

Dementia is loss of brain function that occurs with certain diseases.
Dementia due to metabolic causes is a loss of brain function that can occur with abnormal chemical processes in the body. If these processes can be treated soon enough, brain function can return to normal. Left untreated, these chemical abnormalities cause permanent brain damage and dementia.
Metabolic causes of dementia include:
Metabolic disorders may cause confusion and changes in thinking or reasoning. These changes may be short-term or lasting. Dementia occurs when the symptoms are not reversible. Symptoms can be different for everyone. They depend on the health condition causing the dementia.
The early symptoms of dementia can include:
As the dementia gets worse, symptoms are more obvious and interfere with the ability to take care of yourself:
The person may also have symptoms from the disorder that caused dementia.
An examination of the nervous system (neurologic examination) can show different problems, depending on the cause.
Tests to diagnose a medical condition causing the dementia may include:
To rule out certain brain disorders, an EEG, head CT scan, or head MRI scan is usually done.
Treatment focuses on managing the disorder and controlling symptoms. With some metabolic disorders, treatment may stop or even reverse the dementia symptoms.
Medications used to treat Alzheimer disease have not been shown to work for this type of dementia. Sometimes these drugs are used anyway, when other treatments are unable to control the underlying problems.
Plans should also be made for home care for a loved one with dementia.
Outcome varies, depending on the cause of the dementia and the amount of damage to the brain.
Complications may include the following:
Call for an appointment if symptoms get worse or continue. Go to the emergency room or call the local emergency number (such as 911) if there is a sudden change in mental status or a life-threatening emergency.
Treating the metabolic disorder may reduce the risk of developing this type of dementia.

This 46.6-acre Designated Urban Wilderness Area is a magnificent example of cypress and mixed cypress forest. Cypress trees 250 years old and 100 feet tall are common in the park, which also includes a scenic lake. Relatively undisturbed buffer areas of thick wild coffee, ferns, dahoon holly, cabbage palm, oak, and red maple shield the park, which is part of the Great Florida Birding and Wildlife Trail, from surrounding developed areas, making this a little oasis of nature just minutes from downtown Fort Lauderdale and Atlantic Ocean beaches.
CampgroundEasterlin is known for its heavily wooded campground, which features 55 RV sites.
45 full-hookup RV sites are equipped with...
6 RV sites are equiped with...
There are also two restrooms with heated showers in the campground area. Pets must be registered at check-in and must be kept on leashes no longer than six feet at all times when not inside the RV. There is a two-pet limit per campsite, with proof of current vaccinations and appropriate licenses required. (For campers with pets, the City of Oakland Park's Oakland Bark dog park is within walking distance of Easterlin.)
You can now reserve campgrounds online:
Reservations booked 14 or fewer days in advance must be paid in full. Reservations booked 15 or more days in advance require a two-week deposit.
Easterlin campground map
The campground is open year round but is especially busy from December through March; reservations are strongly recommended. When reserving a site, please advise us of the following:
Camping fees are seasonallly based.
Other restrictions: Only one camping unit is permitted per site. Regular stays are limited to 14 nights. Site fee includes one camping unit, one vehicle for transportation, and four people. Extra-person fee applies to each additional person 6 years of age and over and is limited to four additional persons. More than a total of eight persons is not permitted. There is no charge for children 5 years of age and under. Permit holder must be onsite during the duration of the stay.Quiet hours are from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. Only reported guests are permitted in campsites. Guests not registered as campers are subject to a weekend and holiday gate entry fee and must vacate the campground by 11 p.m. All park facilities close at dusk. Campers are restricted to the campground from dusk until 8 a.m. (except for travel to and from the front gate via the roadway). Campsites are not rented for parties or barbecues.
Primitive Youth CampingThe primitive campground area is set aside for the use of nonprofit organizations and is not available for family camping. All interested nonprofit organizations must book a reservation two weeks prior to the date of use. A fee will be charged per day/night - $1.50 plus tax per child and $2.50 plus tax per adult (18 and up). Youth-to-adult ratio must be no more than 10 youths to one adult. Group size is limited to 60. Only tent camping is permitted in this area. Reservations can be made by calling 954-357-5190.
Sports CourtsThe following sports courts are available on a first-come, first-served basis: basketball, bocce/petanque, horseshoes, pickleball, sand volleyball, and shuffleboard. Sports equipment is available for rental at the park office to the general public and free for use by registered campers.
Environmental and Scouting ProgramsGetting people of all ages involved in the appreciation of nature is the focus of many of the programs at Easterlin Park. Opportunities include activities for boy and girl scouts, children's programs, school field trips, private group tours, and more. Call 954-357-5113 for details and to make reservations.
Groups/GatheringsLarge group gatherings of 250 or more persons require prior park approval and issuance of a Park Permit to address such items as reserving space for the group, traffic control, trash removal/cleanup deposit, etc.
Woodland Nature TrailThis approximately one-mile, horseshoe-shaped trail takes visitors back in time. As the trail winds through the park's cypress forest, which is dotted with towering royal palms flanked by acres of ferns, visitors get a sense of "Old Florida" as the picturesque scene of a centuries-old Florida landscape takes shape. The historic Middle River plays a vital role in the wetland lining the western portion of the trail, benefitting the bald cypress, red maple, and pond apple trees by aiding in the dispersal and germination of their seeds. As the trail meanders east, ferns, mushrooms, lichens, and bromeliads abound. Keep a lookout for the animals that reside throughout the Woodland Trail area, such as gopher tortoises, white ibises, owls, woodpeckers, and various species of butterflies, including ruddy daggerwing.

Cycling stats from Boulder Bcycle and Denver Bcycle
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
|From 13th and Spruce Bcycle Install
Highlights from Boulder Bcycle
Here are some program stats from our launch on May 20th through August 1st:
• 9,046 trips
• 869 annual members
• 3,103 24-hour users
These B-cyclists have ridden an estimated 16,000 miles, burned more than 2 million calories, and saved more than 47,000 pounds of carbon from entering the atmosphere!
Our most popular station, by far, is the one at 15th and Pearl, followed by the one at 11th and Pearl, so downtown locations are really buzzing. We're installing two more stations—one at Whole Foods on 28th & Pearl and the other at the Village Shopping Center (by Zolo)—this month and another three stations this fall.
Highlights from Denver Bcycle as reported in the Life on the Hill newspaper.
"We have seen a substantial increase in daily usage of B-Cycles," said Parry Burnap, executive director of Denver Bike Sharing, when making the announcement July 25. "With close to 1,000 rides per day in July and more than 200,000 rides total from both seasons combined, we're excited to see the environmental, economic, and public health benefits bike-sharing has on the community."

NME have posted more from their interview with Mike Shinoda. In this article, Mike talks about working with Owen Pallett on the band's fifth studio album titled "LIVING THINGS". Owen Pallett is known for his work with Arcade Fire as well as composing string arrangements for the likes of Snow Patrol, Duran Duran and R.E.M.
Mike also spoke about working with producer Rick Rubin again on LIVING THINGS.Speaking to NME, the band's co-frontman Mike Shinoda revealed that drummer Rob Bourdon was the one who got in contact with Pallett, but that the whole band "love" what he did with their track.
Asked about working with Pallett, Shinoda replied: "He worked on one song. We tried a second one, but he got busy with something else, so I actually ended up doing the strings on my own. He did the strings on 'I'll Be Gone'. I've not met him in person though, I think he may have met our drummer Rob, those two were emailing back and forth. I really love what he did with the song and what he did with Arcade Fire is just sensational."
Click HERE to read the full article.The singer also spoke about why they opted to work with producer Rick Rubin once again, who he described as "a great fit".
He said of this: "We considered other producers, but not for long. Rick is a good fit for us in a number of different ways. He's so experienced in so many genres, he refers so many different types of music. Our tastes line up really well, so he's a great fit for us."

ZF-7928: Rest route doesn't work in chains in some cases
Zend_Rest_Route doesn't work in chains with Zend_Controller_Router_Route.
Here is a simple test case:
$route = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route('api'); $router->addRoute("api", $route->chain(new Zend_Rest_Route($front)));
The problem is that Zend_Rest_Route doesn't set matched path in it's "match" method (which is required for chaining to work). As I think it should behave similar to Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Module, which uses following code:
public function match($path, $partial = false) { // skipping method body if ($partial) { $this->setMatchedPath($matchedPath); } // skipping }
Can you help me by expanding the test case code? How is $router defined?
thanks, -L
Here is a full test case code:
[code] $front = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance(); // default ZF router: $router = $front->getRouter(); $router->removeDefaultRoutes();
$route = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route('api'); $router->addRoute("api", $route->chain(new Zend_Rest_Route($front))); [/code]
When trying to navigate to /api/controller/id exception is thrown: Zend\Controller\Router\Rewrite.php, line 341: Current route is not defined
Currently, I have subclassed Zend_Rest_Route with following code to make it work in chains:
[code] class RestRoute extends Zend_Rest_Route { public function match($request, $partial = false) { $result = parent::match($request); if($partial && $result) { $this->setMatchedPath($request->getPathInfo()); } return $result; } }
This is trivially copy-paste from Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Module
Added partial logic to Zend_Rest_Route::match to support using Zend_Rest_Route in route chains.
This issue is not fixed in 1.9.4. The code attached to this issue is not present in 1.9.4 or 1.9.5. It appears to be present in trunk but not in the release-1.9 branch. This code should either be merged into the release-1.9 branch or this issue should have its Fix Version set to 1.10.
Patch merged to 1.9 release branch; will release with 1.9.6.

Here is another jewel of an article, written by Michael Noll:
As hardware costs plummet and greater bandwidth becomes more affordable, cloud computing becomes even more alluring and feasible for the hobbyist. Working with large data sets is an interesting problem set, now attainable by the average developer with a free LINUX hard drive partition and some spare time.
Hadoop is essentially a framework, written in Java, for accessing large data sets. For the average developer, it's usually used in conjunction with HDFS which is a custom file system designed for stroing large data sets on cheaper hardware. HDFS data is usually stored in units of entire web pages written to disk "as-is". Once stored, this large data set is accessible for parsing and analysis.
Indexing of this data is done via what is called a map-reduce algorithm. The easiest map-reduce algorithm to envision is the word count algorithm. Each word on a page is assigned the value "1″ in the map portion, then all words are counted by sorting the words and adding their values. The result is a frequency count of each word in a page. This is the simplest of ten well known map-reduce algorithms, found in this white paper:
The magic of Michael's article is in how to prevent the stringent, often painful Jython interface to Hadoop. This trick is by streaming this data on the command line from his simpler, more Pythonic map-reduce algorithm directly to Hadoop, thereby avoiding the complex Jython interface. Very clever indeed! It would be wonderful to see all of the relatively standard map-reduce algorithms written in Python.
He has a couple of other great articles on exactly how to install and configure Hadoop on Ubuntu here:
and here:
On top of Hadoop is usually a metdata store, holding high level information about which page sets or data "chunks" can be found on which volumes, for efficiency. After attending a cloud computing conference in November, I realized that many companies have chosen to write their own metadata layer using HiveDB, or custom metadata tools, and many distributed MySQL databases, rather than settling for the expensive commercial solutions. This great work is the primary cause of the proliferation of easily accessible Open Source cloud computing tools.
Another project to watch is called Mahout, which is an attempt to make all of the well known map-reduce algorithms generally accessible across multicore Hadoop systems.
I run Fedora 10, and have a bit more work to do, but it is outstanding to see such an easily accessible installation for such a relatively complex set of tools. So many software tools and toys, so little time!

Scientific Misconduct Is Jeopardizing the Quality...
Widespread Adoption of Biomarkers Has Been...
Diseases of the Eye That Cause...
Constant Innovation and Translation of Scientific...
Scientists at Dartmouth report the development of a novel biological pathway-based computational model to identify underlying genetic connections between different diseases. The pathway-based human phenotype network (PHPN) mines the data present in large publicly available disease datasets to find shared SNPs, genes, or pathways and expresses them in a visual form, according to the researchers.
The Dartmouth team's study ("The Multiscale Backbone of the Human Phenotype Network based on Biological Pathways") was published in BioDataMining this week.
"The PHPN offers a bird's eye view of the diseases and phenotype's relationships at the systems level," said Christian Darabos, Ph.D., a postdoctoral fellow at the Institute for Quantitative Biomedical Sciences at Dartmouth.
The PHPN uses information in human disease networks in conjunction with network science tools to show clusters of related disorders sharing common genetic backgrounds. It does so without the typical clinical classification of disease, in which all heart disease or all cancers are grouped together, based on clinical presentation, explained Dr. Darabos.
"In systems biology, human disease networks show interactions between disorders sharing common genetic background. We built a pathway-based human phenotype network of over 800 physical attributes, diseases, and behavioral traits, based on about 2,300 genes and 1,200 biological pathways," wrote the investigators. "Using GWAS phenotype-to-genes associations, and pathway data from Reactome, we connect human traits based on the common patterns of human biological pathways, detecting more pleiotropic effects and expanding previous studies from a gene-centric approach to that of shared cell-processes."
In other words, PHPN explores the connections between the layers of the networks to find patterns and relationships. It supports the integration of genomic and phenotypic data to uncover significant links between traits, attributes, and disease, according to Dr. Darabos.
This offer tremendous potential in identifying risk factors for certain diseases, he noted, adding that at the same time, it can reveal important targets for therapeutic intervention.

Gardening Articles: Landscaping :: Yard & Garden Planning
Gardening Bibles (page 2 of 3)
by Jack Ruttle
Four Classic Gardening Encyclopedias
These are books produced under the auspices of an institution, such as the New York Botanical Garden, and their chief editors are topflight horticulturists. They are all big books.
Most of them arrange entries by gardening topic, rather than alphabetically, as in a traditional encyclopedia. Separate chapters cover the major aspects of gardening (design, landscaping, tools, and so on) and plants (such as annuals, vegetables, roses, and shrubs). Read chapters and get a minicourse on a larger topic, or get a quick answer to a question by looking in the index.
- American Horticultural Society Encyclopedia of Gardening, edited by Christopher Brickell (Dorling-Kindersley, 1993; 648 pages, $60).
This superb gardening encyclopedia is notable both for its depth and accuracy, and for the high quality photos and drawings. Most photos and illustrations, though small, are helpful not just decorative. There are generally four to six per page. Brickell, is the director of Britain's Royal Horticultural Society and many of the contributors come from the society's famous demonstration garden at Wisley. These are some of the world's most knowledgeable and skillful gardeners, and it shows. The book has been lightly Americanized under the auspices of the American Horticultural Society.
One of the most appealing things about this very modern work is that the frequent step-by-step photographs are so good you can spend hours studying them. For American audiences, the main weakness is the scant awareness of drought (again, drip irrigation is mentioned in only one sentence) or of the problems of extreme heat and cold. There is so much that is good here, however, that these topics are hardly missed. A companion encyclopedia on plants has the same format and price. But in this country (thanks to a quirk in publishing politics), it is sold by Macmillan, not Dorling-Kindersley, which produced both books.
- America's Garden Book, by Louise and James Bush-Brown, edited by Howard Irwin (Macmillan, 1996; 1,152 pages, $60).
Since its publication in 1939 this book has been hugely popular. It was written largely by Louise Bush-Brown, of the Pennsylvania School of Horticulture, and her husband, a landscape architect, then completely revised and updated in by Howard S. Irwin of the New York Botanical Garden. Irwin has also overseen the latest edition. Despite the book's very different look (larger format, more modern page layout, and 1,000 color photos), new readers as well as those familiar with earlier editions will find this one easy to use. Plant varieties and product information have been updated, but most of the text and the organization are essentially unchanged. The copious tables and plant lists that made the book so popular are still there. It is a thorough and readable introduction to the entire field of gardening. The only thing I couldn't find was help on drip irrigation and related equipment.
- Taylor's Master Guide to Gardening, edited by Frances Tenenbaum (Houghton Mifflin, 1994; 612 pages, $60).
Taylor's Encyclopedia of Gardening, edited by Norman Taylor (botanist and curator at the New York Botanical Garden and later the Brooklyn Botanic Garden), was first published in 1936. The book became hugely popular, and Taylor updated it several times through 1961. This new book borrows some inspiration but contains 100 percent new material.
The strength of the Master Guide is the information on plants in the center of the book. It includes an extensive photo gallery (100 pages, four to six photos per page) with useful captions, followed by a 200-plus page encyclopedia of garden plants that is mostly text. These two sections cover a wide range of trees, shrubs, vines, perennials, bulbs, and annuals, with good, up-to-date variety recommendations. The essays on garden styles and landscaping that open the book, however, are of uneven quality. Locked into a two- or four-page format, many lack the depth available in other encyclopedias. The entries on garden technique in the back of the book--a mere 50 pages--also lack depth. Several major gaps cause the book to fall short of its dust jacket promise, "The Complete One Volume Reference." There is scarcely a word in this entire book on houseplants, vegetables, or fruits, and very little on roses. The pocketbook Taylor Guides on those topics, however, are excellent, so these omissions are puzzling.
Wyman's Gardening Encyclopedia by Donald Wyman (Macmillan, 1986; 1,221 pages, $65).
Donald Wyman was chief horticulturist at Harvard University's Arnold Arboretum from 1936 until 1970, which put him at the heart of plant evaluation and introduction in this country. In 1971 he published his encyclopedia, which he updated twice, most recently 10 years ago. Of all the books listed here, his describes the most plants: more than 9,500 species. About 60 major essays treat various aspects of gardening. Though the essays are listed in a table of contents, the book has chapters. All entries are in alphabetical order; the cross-referencing is good, so an index isn't needed. A book like this is fun to browse: you look up a specific plant or technique but end up reading unexpected and interesting entries around it.
The book has an old-fashioned look compared to the others reviewed here. Its few photos and illustrations are all black and white, but the book is an excellent quick reference. The essays are thorough and accurate, almost always very good reading. It is probably time for a revision, however, to bring botanical names up to date and introduce some of the newest information on subjects such as tree pruning, biological controls, and new products like row covers.

Gardening Articles: Flowers :: Perennials
Thomas Ogren
by Cathy Cromell
Tom Ogren
Before Thomas Ogren wrote Allergy-Free Gardening: The Revolutionary Guide to Healthy Landscaping, he wasn't particularly sympathetic to those who suffer from allergies, including his wife and other family members. "I had read that allergies were psychosomatic, so I believed that," he states. That erroneous belief started changing 20 years ago while Ogren was teaching horticulture to prison inmates in California. "I asked a big, muscle-bound gang member to pull Pride of Madeira weeds," he remembers. The inmate wanted a different job because he had gotten a terrible rash the last time he pulled the weeds. Ogren rubbed some of the prickly leaves on his own arm. "It flamed up, so I gave the inmate another job."
Ogren Plant-Allergy Scale
The next week Ogren drove to the Bay Area from his home in San Luis Obispo, on freeways lined with acacia in full bloom. "I had always liked the monoculture look of mass plantings, but when I arrived in Berkeley, everyone was sneezing except me," he describes.
These back-to-back experiences gave him the idea to do "sniff" tests with his class to determine if certain plants created problems. "We went outside and sniffed everything," he explains, "and a third of the class started sneezing uncontrollably from bottlebrush." Intrigued, he continued the sniff tests for a year with anyone who would volunteer, learning which plants typically triggered reactions. He stopped when a few people became ill.
"I felt so bad about the lack of empathy I had shown my wife that I replaced all the plants in our yard that seemed to cause problems." There was significant improvement in her allergies. Ogren's brother-in-law also replanted his yard. "For the first time in his adult life, he wasn't taking antihistamines," recalls Ogren. Fascinated by these results, Ogren talked to botanists, horticulture professors, and allergists, but there was little data available on plant allergies. His research led him to develop OPALS (Ogren Plant-Allergy Scale) to categorize plants numerically from 1 to 10. The higher the number, the more likely that the plant will cause allergy symptoms. Writing a book was the next step. "I ended up writing the book that I had wanted to buy," he states. "I received 326 book rejections over a 12-year period, but I kept working on it because the topic fascinated me."

She ran up a tree.
She ran up and ran down,
She ran up and ran down.
A busy little squirrel, as busy as could be.
It Looks Like Fall
I see the leaves falling to the ground
1,2,3,4,5 some orange and some brown.
I see squirrels gathering acorns a plenty,
1,2,3,4,5 theyll taste good and yummy.
I see the holiday pumpkins ready to pick
1,2,3,4,5 will it be a treat or trick.
Summers gone I should not frown,
Because it looks like fall all around.
Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall
There are seasons, four in all,
Winter, spring, summer, fall.
The weather changes, sun or snow,
The leaves fall down or flowers grow.
Look on the felt board,
What will it be?
Just which season do you see?
The Leaves on the Tree Song
(The Wheels on the Bus)
The leaves on the trees turn orange and red, orange and red, orange and red .
The leaves of the trees turn orange and red
All around town.
The leaves of the trees come tumbling down,
tumbling down, tumbling down.
The leaves of the trees come tumbling down
All through the town.
The leaves on the ground go swish, swish, swish
Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish.
The leaves on the ground go swish, swish,
All through the town.
