Rated 5 out of 5 by STaz A candle that doesn't melt outside! I've been looking for outdoor LED battery operated candles, but could only find wax ones. It gets very hot where I live, and wax melts outside in the summer. These are great! They look real and have a flickering light. I purchased the remote and it works great! Would hate to have to go around picking up all the candles to turn off after a party - now it's just point and push the remote. Frontage has quality products that have never disappointed. May 1, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lunasmommy Great outdoor candles! I purchased these outdoor candles to use in the Normandy Lanterns and they look great! I love the timer aspect as well as the timer feature, they look realistic when illuminated and flicker like a candle. I appreciate the fact that they won't melt in the sunlight and make my lanterns look beautiful!!! April 30, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by anomis Fantastic We bought 6 of these candles and they look amazing. Battery lasts very long. Great for indoor and outdoor. Very happy with the performance. November 16, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by 22PuraVida Truly the best purchase ever Finally a candle that is truly durable in the outdoor heat and rain. Gone are the days of bringing them in and out to avoid the heat. I love my new candles it really enhances the ambiance in my backyard overlooking the lake. Thank you August 9, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by DecorDiva52 Perfect for Patio Decor I have several of these for ambiance lighting on my patio and in my outdoor living area. They are very realistic and the materials are perfect to withstand high summer heat as well as colder temperatures. Even heavy rain does not harm them, as the batteries are well protected and they have drainage included in their design. I love that they are remote controlled and have a capability for timers not only for duration, but also for on and off schedules on a day after day basis. At Halloween, I used these to safely light Jack O'Lanterns (large ceramic type). They are beautiful as is, but add a great touch to any holiday decor. They look great inside lanterns, orbs, and surrounded by wreaths. I have several different sizes for varied needs and they are all just great. Guests marvel at their realism and how they bring outdoor living spaces to life. I adore these and highly recommend them. I install extra long life durable D size batteries and the beauty lasts for extended periods of use. Very pleased with this product!!! I will certainly add additional sizes to my collection.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Huckelberry Great Got rave comments at Thanksgiving so ordered more as Christmas gifts. Emits a great flickering light. December 2, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Mackenzie Best Battery Operated Candles! These are the best outdoor battery operated candles by far. I purchased a competitors candle last year, and they did not even last the entire season. The quality, appearance, and durability far surpassed my expectations. Another great Frontgate purchase! May 30, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Malibu Beautiful! These candles were spectacular! They were easy to use and I like the fact that they didn't have that fake LED style light. I use the candles outside and they look totally real! The remote is so easy to use and is helpful when you put the candles high up. They are the best ones that I have seen and I researched all of the ones on the market, May 5, 2014

Answer:I've had several of these candles for 4 years and had to replace several of them. I've noticed that the newer ones have a different set of wires (new ones have white wires) and seem to hold up better. Frontgate is wonderful with their replacement policy if you are still having issues.

1 answerDo I need a remote for each candle?
Additional information about km1968 could not be loaded.
I didn't buy any remotes because it said that the candles had timers (most of my electric candles have timers as an option on the switch). What I didn't realize is that the timer only works if you have the remote.

Answer:The battery operated flameless outdoor candles that i bought all work with 1 remote.
i have about 30 of them in various sizes in different places inside and oout, so i bought a couple of extra remotes, but you could get by with just one.
Don't forget you need to put batteries in them - they are not supplied by Frontgate.
I live in the Palm Springs are where it can get above 100+F, and I've had the candles outdoors in the sun, and they still work perfectly.

Answer:Change the batteries, would be my first step.
Then manually turn the candle on, and then shut it off with the remote.
It should work that way. All 30 of mine do..

Wednesday is an auspicious date: 12/12/12 on the calendar, numerologically and astrologically significant, and an easy-enough date to remember as an anniversary or birthday. Likely thousands of people worldwide will marry on the last triple-digit date of the century. Couples will line up at Las Vegas wedding chapels Wednesday as insurance for a lucky start to a new marriage. Likewise, some women have scheduled cesarean-section births to give their offspring a head start — at least numerologically. Even Pope Benedict is taking advantage of the lucky day, scheduling his much-awaited first tweet for 12/12/12 — although, to be fair, no one has determined whether numerology influenced the holy man's entrance to the Twittersphere.

Instead of doing the same old this weekend, head down to Utah Valley for the Downtown Provo Gallery Stroll. Venues along Center Street and University Avenue open their doors for the public to enjoy galleries for free every first Friday of the month.
Take a stroll through historic downtown Provo and enjoy music, art and theater (and often refreshments) from 6 to 9 p.m. You can start at any of the galleries and you'll get directions to the other ones.
Venues participating in November are Terra Nova Gallery, Provo Community Church, Muse, Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce, Utah County Art Gallery, Window Box Gallery, PhoPlus and the Covey Center for the Arts.
Most of them are along University Avenue. Here's a map.
This Friday, Nov. 1, will be a clear but chilly night, so dress warmly. The gallery stroll is a great activity for friends, dates and families. The nice part is that you can spend however long you want at each gallery and go to as many venues as you'd like.
Take advantage of the opportunity to enjoy excellent art and some crisp, autumn air as you wander between galleries.

As seen on the National Geographic Channel.
Price: $19.95
On Christmas Day 2007, a 243-pound Siberian tiger named Tatiana escaped from her open-air enclosure at the San Francisco Zoo and mauled three young men. Before long, one 17-year-old boy and the 4-year-old tigress lay dead. The incident was the first time a visitor was killed by an escaped animal at an accredited zoo in the United States. Zoo Tiger Escape investigates the how and why of what really happened that nightfrom the possible motivational factors that led the tiger to escape, to the complex evolution of enclosure design. The show provides exclusive documentary access to the San Francisco Zoo's efforts to reconstruct its tiger enclosure, as well as candid interviews with zoo staff members on the tragedy.

Reviews for Pumpkin Streusel Cupcakes
"These were okay. Brought them to school and my students liked them. I did frost them and put an m ' m candy on top. However the streusel didn't cook up real well at first and I had to put them back in the oven to get it to cook. Probably wouldn't make it again."
"Have not tried yet but I will. After reading the reviews can someone explain what pasta has to do with this recipe?"
"Cast iron king. I wonder why it didn't taste like pumpkin bread. Maybe cause you didn't use pumplin? It tasted like burnt pasta because you used pasta and ovebaked it. Perhaps you should make the recipe as is before you make irrelevant comments"
"Made these right before Thanksgiving and everyone loved them!"
"12 for dinner and after there were none left. will for sure make these again. left off the frosting and served as muffins"

Understanding the impact of kinship upon the evolution of social behavior is one of the central questions in Behavioral Ecology. Kin selection theory predicts that animals can increase their fitness by allocating more cooperation to kin than to non-kin. There is widespread evidence of favouring maternal kin in behaviour across mammals, including primates and in some species it has also been shown that females increase their fitness via associations with maternal kin. Less is known about paternal kinship (relatedness through the father).
In many social primates, females mate promiscuously (with more than one male) near the time of conception. Hence, in species with such a mating system, paternity can only be revealed to human observers via genetic techniques. To date we do not understand whether and how male and female primates can assess paternity and we only have limited information about the distribution of paternal kinship within and across social groups.
Furthermore, little is known about the impact of paternal relatedness upon the evolution of social behaviour as well as the underlying mechanism of paternal kin discrimination. The Junior Research Group of Primate Kin Selection aims to study a number of these questions (see research).

Groove. A slang definition of groove is an enjoyable time or experience. Or, as from the fictional "Stella," your mojo, your vibe, that which makes you click, tick, thrive, survive. Your essence. At times, if you lose your "groove," you can lose that which helps makes you wake up happy each morning, your compass, your roadmap to life. You may feel if something is missing. "It" may be hard to put a finger on but when "it" is gone, you definitely know it. For me, my groove is the essence that makes me happy and helps me accomplish life with an anticipation of what is yet to come, also helps me to be fearless, adventurous and nurtures my being. In fact, serendipity is one of my groove mantras!
I have experienced some "take you to your knees" things in my life — my father suffering from and dying young of a debilitating horrible, horrible disease; physical abuse in my first marriage; discrimination at work (yup, discrimination is real and more awful than you can imagine if you've never been through it); and endometriosis. Yet I survived all of those things, knees wobbly for sure, but I was left standing heading into my 50s pretty darned happy. In fact, I was lovin' life in my late forties! I had figured out some real important stuff, including who I wanted to be, put some tricky relationships in order, got remarried to a sexy-smart-oh-so-yummy-loved-kids-guy who I loved AND really liked! When I was around him, I felt butterflies in my stomach. Ah…real love! Although Stella found her groove in Jamaica, I took my new husband and family TO Jamaica to get my groove on by jumping off the cliffs at Ricks Cafe, dancing on the beach, wearing bikinis, going snorkeling and watching the sun come up each morning, sitting on a lounge chair facing the ocean with a cup of coffee that was so good, it made you want to slap your mama!
I was active, excited, invigorated, alive! Yes, I did dread the every 28 days, but by my late forties, I had learned to manage the nuisance. I had my groove thing goin' on!
Now just when I was poised to conquer the world, I started going through menopause. Menopause caused me to go to one knee. In fact, I was down on both knees. The hot flashes, memory lapses, vaginal dryness, weight gain, insomnia. Seriously! A lifetime of cramps, and now I was going to go through this this...horror? I cried foul but to no avail. My groove started to elude me. I was in a serious funk. Menopause was sucking away my groove. I felt like a different person...not a person who was happy, sunny and optimistic, but someone whose body was turning her into a unhappy, lethargic, moody pessimist! I was losing control and I wasn't curious anymore. I found myself existing from one crummy bad feeling to the next.
Menopause is not for sissies or the faint of heart. For those of us who have experienced childbirth free of drugs (only one birth, I learned with the other two...at the first sign of pain, hello…drugs NOW!) you understand what I'm talking about. Most women that I know are strong. We have to be to keep all the balls of life in the air! But now Menopause is a whole 'nother program. All women will go through it, but HOW we go through it can be a defining time in our lives. In fact, it can affect how we view and live our life for years!
My Mother sailed through menopause as she sailed through her menstrual cycle — pain free and more of a nuisance than anything else. Started at 16, ended at 50, and nary a cramp in between. Wow.
Me, on the other hand, I started my menstrual cycle at 10 years old in the fifth grade. I immediately had cramps. I mean the kind of cramps that aspirin won't help, and every 28 days I knew I would be in bed for at least two days. The kind of cramps that made me miss a band trip to Disneyland when I was in high school. The kind of cramps that made me question if I was being punished for something. When I was 18, I was diagnosed as having endometriosis and that the only real cure was a hysterectomy. Well, what I knew for sure was that I wanted to get married and have children and AFTER that, then I would reassess the situation. I went on to get married and have three beautiful children. Eventually dumped the abuser, and still suffered from cramps and endometriosis.

TUCSON, Ariz. – The Arizona men's and women's swimming and diving team will open up the home season this Friday against UNLV at the Hillenbrand Aquatic Center. The meet will begin at 2 p.m.
The women's team looks to pick up where they left off against Utah after the dominating 204-96 victory this past weekend.
The Wildcats were led by Margo Geer and Bonnie Brandon, as both picked up where they left off last season. Earning victories in the 400 medley relay and claiming the top four spots in the 200 free last weekend, the Cats look to be in good form early.
Samantha Pickens will continue to work her way back to her National Championship defense as she comes off a 295.73 point first place finish.
Meanwhile, the men will look to keep some momentum from the Utah meet. Defending National Champion Kevin Cordes took home a few victories last weekend.
For UNLV, this will be its first meet of the season. The Rebels return the majority of a men's squad that finished 29th at the NCAA Championships. The women meanwhile bring back a solid group that is expected to challenge for a top-three finish in the Mountain West.

"Reader, I must whisper you a truth. Come, put your ear close to this page," writes July, a slave turned memoirist who reveals the terrors of her past in The Long Song (Farrar, Straus and Giroux), Andrea Levy's bitingly original novel of slavery in colonial Jamaica. July has much in common with Zarité, aka Tété, the ex-slave at the center of Isabel Allende's Island Beneath the Sea (Harper), a lush epic of racism and rebellion which begins in Saint-Domingue (today's Haiti).
Old women now, July and Tété were born of violence, their mothers raped by white men. Both were house slaves on sugar plantations. Most strikingly, both women—like so many whose suffering will never be known—tell important, intimate stories of tragedy and resilience. Allende's long-abused Tété finds solace in her z'étoile, her ungovernable soul, and in her loas, the African spirits that guide her. Levy's cruder July gets her kicks from sabotage. July confronts grim realities with a prickly humor ("When slaves turn wild, they are useless to all but worms"), while Tété shows us that "freedom was not free, you had to fight for it." In a culture of violence, she proves that ingenuity can be as heroic as love.

Judge rules mistrial in Trinity Highway guardrail case, cites possible witness tampering
Lawsuit questions safety of ET-Plus guardrails
A federal judge in Texas declared a mistrial in the possible billion-dollar whistleblower lawsuit involving popular guardrails that line our nation's highways.
According to U.S. District Judge Rodney Gilstrap, there were "serious concerns" regarding witness truthfulness associated with the defendant, highway manufacturing giant Trinity Industries.
The whistleblower and former industry business owner, Josh Harman, filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of the American public in Texas where the company's headquarters are located. Harman said the current Trinity guardrails, the ET-Plus model, are dangerous and deadly. He said the guardrails were never properly tested or properly approved by the government.
Trinity has said in statements the company stands behind its product and has called Harman's allegations "false and misleading."
RELATED: Victim: Highway guardrails 'designed to save lives, not destroy them'
According to a court transcript from Friday, July 18, Gilstrap said, "This case has been replete with errors, gamesmanship, inappropriate conduct, and matters that should not be a part of any trial where a fair and impartial verdict is expected."
Gilstrap, according to the transcript, discussed the possibility of whether or not the president of Trinity Highway Products, Gregg Mitchell, attempted to intimidate a witness.
"You now know from yesterday's testimony that there are serious issues regarding whether or not the president of Trinity Highway Products intentionally attempted to intimidate a witness from appearing in this case, tampered with a witness, or committed perjury," he said. "That was brought out to you yesterday. It cannot be taken away from your minds or your conscience."
In an email, Trinity wrote the allegations against Mitchell are untrue and that the company "looks forward to re-presenting the facts in this matter." (Read the full statement from Trinity below.)
The federal judge also pointed fingers at the plaintiffs, according to the court transcript.
Gilstrap said the plaintiffs took steps to prevent the witness from being deposed by the defense and "effectively hounded him."
"I believe the plaintiffs took steps to hide this witness and unfairly spring this
witness on the defendants," Gilstrap said.
The mistrial was declared less than a week into the trial being held in Marshall, Texas, about 150 miles east of Dallas.
"In declaring a mistrial, the court found last Friday that there were serious allegations regarding whether the President of Trinity Highway Products had engaged in witness tampering or committed perjury," Karen Dyer, one of the lead attorneys for Harman, said. She is an attorney with Boies, Schiller & Flexner LLP.
The guardrails were installed throughout the country in all 50 states. Harman said there have been hundreds of accidents that caused more harm, as a result, of the guardrail.
In this type of guardrail, the terminal head is supposed to take the impact and slow down the vehicle. The railing is supposed to channel through the head and pigtail out the side — away from the car. But, there has been accident after accident where the railing gets jammed up and often pierces the vehicle like a spear. They cut through the cars and any people in its way.
RELATED: Victim calls 911 after guardrail crash cuts victim's legs [VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED]
One of the most recent cases was January 2014 in North Carolina. An Isuzu Trooper hit a guardrail head-on and the driver's legs were severed.
"I've lost my legs in a wreck," the driver told a 911 dispatcher. "I've lost my legs in a wreck. Oh, my God." The dispatcher told him to stay calm. "I'm trying, but this blood is going out too fast," said the driver.
"A guardrail is not supposed to cut a person in half," Harman said.
Harman alleges Trinity slowly decreased the dimensions of the terminal head which is the part that takes the car's impact. And, by making it smaller the railing cannot channel through the head and pigtail out the side –away from the car.
In a June letter the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administration, reiterated that the ET-Plus guardrail model is eligible for federal reimbursement. The letter was sent after the transportation agency received inquiries from State DOT's and FHWA Division Offices regarding the federal-aid eligibility of the the guardrail manufactured by Trinity.
For details regarding the changes in dimensions, read the original story.
A new trial is expected later this year, possibly in the fall. It would be tried in front of a new jury.
"We look forward to retrying the case as expeditiously as possible," Dyer said. "Holding Trinity accountable for its deception of the federal government and seeking that all of the unsafe, secretly-modified head terminals be removed from the road."
Trinity's official statement:
Trinity has a high degree of confidence in the performance and integrity of the ET-Plus® System, which we are proud to manufacture and sell under license from Texas A&M University. The false and misleading allegations being made by Mr. Harman were reviewed by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). The FHWA re-affirmed its acceptance of the ET-Plus® System in October 2012 and yet again in June 2014 for its eligibility for use on the National Highway System. The ET-Plus® System remains accepted by the FHWA in what the FHWA characterizes as an "unbroken chain" of acceptance since 2005.
A lawsuit was brought by Trinity and Texas A&M for infringement of the patents covering the ET-Plus® System. During this patent lawsuit, Mr. Harman filed his own lawsuit against Trinity based on allegations of "false claims" associated with the ET-Plus® System. The U.S. Government reviewed his "false claim" allegations and declined to participate in the lawsuit. Trinity will continue to defend itself against the individual making these allegations in court and is taking the steps necessary to fully protect the intellectual property of Texas A&M and the outstanding reputation of Trinity Highway Products and the ET-Plus® System. On July 18, 2014, Judge Gilstrap of the U.S. Eastern District of Texas declared a mistrial in the ongoing litigation with plaintiff Joshua Harman in his False Claims Act case against Trinity. A new trial is expected later this year and Trinity looks forward to re-presenting the facts in this matter.

Lavender and the Kissing Tree
Story Tours ghost tour guides tell the story of Marilyn Watson, who died in the Salt Lake Valley just three years after the pioneers arrived in 1847. She was part of a Scottish family that converted to Mormonism and moved across the world to help develop the territory that became Utah. She was 19, like any girl her age, she loved dancing and meeting boys—every time she wore a lavender dress.
Eventually, she earned the nickname, Lavender, because of her dress. She didn't mind. It was also her favorite color.
But Marilyn's dancing days were cut short. She caught pneumonia and died a year and a half after moving into the valley at age 20. Her headstone in Salt Lake City Cemetery included her nickname.
Ten years later, the Tanner family arrived in the valley with their 20-year-old son Henry, who also loved the dances. It wasn't hard for Henry to find girls to dance with and take to what's now 600 East, under the kissing tree, to steal a kiss. One night, he saw a girl at a dance who nearly knocked him off his feet. She was wearing a lavender dress, and Henry knew he had to make a move.
He offered to accompany the young lady home and stopped by the kissing tree on the way. It was a cold night, so he offered her his jacket and they shared a kiss. Before he could kiss her again, it started raining and he took her home. The house was dark. No candles, nobody else around. The girl thanked Henry and went in the house.
Henry went home, wishing to see her again. Then he realized she still had his jacket—the perfect excuse for a follow-up date.
The next day, Henry made the trek to the house and the weeds looked higher than the night before, the home was falling apart and nobody was inside. Thinking he had the wrong house, he asked a neighbor where the girl in the lavender dress lived.
The neighbor said Henry could find Lavender under the poplar tree at the far east end of the cemetery. And when he went there, he found his jacket neatly folded over Marilyn's headstone.
We could not find a burial record for Marilyn Watson who died at this time in the area, but we did find the "kissing" tree. Kind of.
A monument is dedicated to the Big Cedar Tree, south of 300 S. 600 East (formerly Emigration Road).
The tree was a meeting place for more than just young lovers. Prayers were said at its base, loggers would meet before going to work and children would play in its shade. The tree was eventually cut down, and the Daughters of Salt Lake County erected a monument over its stump on July 24, 1933.

SEATTLE – It was a beautiful, clear day down on the water at this year's Head of the Lake regatta. The amazing event, put on by the Lake Washington Rowing Club and the University of Washington, and weather was the perfect setting to highlight the thriving rowing community in the Seattle area.
It was not a bad day for the Huskies as they closed out their fall competitive season, either.
Out of the eight races that at least one UW boat competed in, they won six and finished second and third in the others. The Dawgs won the Men's Collegiate Varsity, Junior Varsity and third 8+ as well as the Champs 4+ and the Women's Varsity and JV 8+.
In the men's varsity 8+ race, the Huskies (15:33.614) crossed the finish almost 31 seconds ahead of the next closest crew, the Oregon State Beavers. The crew then split up into two 4+ boats where they finished first (17:23.484) and second (17:34.770).
Head coach Michael Callahan said, "The varsity boat is really youthful and excited right now. Only having one senior among seven sophomores and juniors really makes for a lot of energy. It's really exciting to see what these guys can do and how much they're going to grow in one year. There's a lot of opportunity for them and I really like how they've responded in the past couple of weeks."
The other men's crews also did extremely well on Sunday morning. The JV 8+ finished more than 46 seconds in front of the Beavers, also.
"We've definitely picked up momentum from our first race," Callahan continued, "and the guys have really responded to the training and goals we've set for them, so we're looking forward to the next stage. Today really ran well. I think everyone raced really well and really competitively. It was good to see everyone competing in all of the events at a very strong level."
The varsity women's crew beat two conference foes, Washington State and Stanford, with a time of 17:42.743. Both the Cougars and the Cardinal were competitors in last year's NCAA Championships.
The JV (17:54.800) also beat the Cougars, by nearly 30 seconds.
"It was great for both the women's JV and varsity to win against good, credible competition today," head coach Bob Ernst said. "When you're racing on your home course you really want to win as big as you can, especially with so many fans of the sport here in Seattle, it was also a really beautiful day. And we couldn't be more pleased with the event put on here by Lake Washington Rowing Club. They're organization and they're productive today was really, really good. We were lucky to have such a great day."
The women's third eight (18:50.573) came in just ten seconds behind conference rival WSU to finish second. The Cougars also took home top honors in the women's 4+ race right in front of Stanford. UW rounded out the top three of that race with a time of 20:00.619.
The teams will now turn to focus on training and school in preparation for their spring season that will kick off on March 29 at 10:00 am PT with the annual Class Day intrasquad regatta.

Gardening Articles: Flowers :: Annuals
Gardens of Quebec (page 3 of 3)
by Alain Charest
Roger Van den Hende Garden
This 15-acre teaching garden is in Sainte-Foy, just west of Quebec City. Its name may make you think of an old Dutch master, and it does refer to a master -- but a master gardener who created a garden and an arboretum on the grounds of Laval University.
At first, I thought the garden cold and unappealing. Though you go through an attractive arbor and welcoming entrance, these take you into a vast open area where more than a thousand plots are aligned in straight rows, each plant segregated from its neighbor and carefully lined up and identified by a large label. This regimented appearance makes the garden look rather austere and forbidding.
Looking at the plants more closely and reading the labels, you try to make sense of this gathering of 2,000 kinds of plants that seem to have nothing in common. It took me some time to realize that the arrangement is simply a botanical one. Then, curiosity takes over and you go from bed to bed, surprised to learn that bugbane (Cimicifuga) is in fact a buttercup, that forget-me-nots (Myosotis) and Brunnera are actually borages. You meet all these old friends you never associated with each other, and it is as if they all had been gathered in one place with their relatives, and you're finding out you actually know many of their cousins.
Besides being a great deal of fun, the garden is an eye-opener on what can be grown in a place that shares the same latitude as northern Minnesota. One thing you definitely do not expect to see in a cold-winter garden are 15-foot-tall rhododendrons (the garden has 40 species). You know you will find some old-fashioned roses (after all these are tough old plants), but among the 200-plus varieties the garden grows are also a surprising number of modern ones.
The arboretum, a nice shady walk where you can get away from the busy family reunion next door, also holds quite a few surprises including several magnolias. It leads to an attractive water garden where the floral emblem of the place (the native Iris versicolor) grows.
The garden's most picturesque feature is a spacious pergola that serves as a backdrop to the lined-up plots and redirects the traffic to other sections of the garden. It sits slightly higher than the rest of the garden and is an ideal place to sit in the shade and admire the view. Just behind it is a shade garden including tall ferns and impressive drifts of Turk's cap lilies (Lilium martagon).
Roger Van den Hende Garden:, Laval University Horticultural Research Center, 2480 Blvd. Hochelaga, Sainte-Foy G1K 7P4; (418) 656-3410. Open 8am to 9pm May 1 through October 30; free.
Montreal Botanical Garden
This 185-acre garden in the heart of the city has a great deal to offer: 30 outdoor gardens, 10 exhibition greenhouses, a 96-acre arboretum, and superb Japanese and Chinese gardens with outstanding collections of bonsai and penjing (the Chinese equivalent of bonsai).
I found the educational gardens particularly interesting. These are some of the oldest ones at the garden. For instance, the aquatic garden has numerous raised pools where you can see, just a few inches from your nose, a large variety of native and exotic aquatic plants. The most intriguing collection is the poisonous plant garden. Being surrounded by plants you know you cannot even touch makes you feel you are in an alien, science fiction world. Knowing they are poisonous attracts you but at the same time forces you to keep your distance. Teenage boys seemed particularly intrigued by this garden.
Nearby is a garden of economic plants, ones humans use extensively for other than aesthetic reasons. You can see such things as flax and tobacco as well as a very interesting collection of vegetables. The garden seems to have been conceived to acquaint people with the plants that supply the vegetables they have been eating all their lives.
But sophisticated gardeners have not been forgotten either, and there are also lots of unusual vegetables. I was fascinated with an improved, culinary variety of purslane! Having spent many a late-summer evening pulling out purslane by the bucketful in my own vegetable garden, I was shocked to see it very large, very plump, and very juicy, staring at me defiantly from its well-cultivated row. After my initial shock, I felt somewhat vindicated to see that even with all the staff available it was a problem to keep it from sprouting in the neighboring rows.
The botanical garden has numerous allotments for city children to use. My best memory of the garden is of a group of boys and girls about age 10 walking out of the garden with plastic bags of leaf lettuce and other veggies they were obviously proud of having grown themselves, and looking forward to showing them to their parents.
Montreal Botanical Garden: 4101 Sherbrooke St. E, Montreal H1X 2B2; (514) 872-1400. Open 9am to 7pm daily mid-June to late October, 9am to 5pm the rest of the year. Summer admission: $9.50 adults, $7 students and seniors, $4.75 ages 6 through 17; lower rates the rest of the year.

|Vandal women cruise to victory
MOSCOW - Five Idaho players scored in double figures, three had double figure rebounds and two had double-doubles as a balanced Vandal women's basketball team cruised to an 82-65 Western Athletic Conference victory over San Jose State on Thursday night.
The Vandals even their WAC record at 1-1 and improve to 4-9 overall with the win. SJSU falls to 1-2 in the WAC and 4-10 overall.
Idaho junior Addie Schivo led the team with a career-high 18 points off the bench by shooting 5-of-6 from the field, 3-of-3 from 3-point range and 5-of-6 from the free throw line.
"Addie is capable of this, there is no question," Idaho coach Jon Newlee said. "She had some really good looks and knocked them down. She was more aggressive offensively and she defended well."
Freshmen Christina Salvatore and Connie Ballestero each scored 13 points. Ballestero added eight rebounds and five assists with no turnovers in the game. Sophomore Stacey Barr had 10 points and matched her career-high with 10 rebounds to go along with three assists and three steals, and junior Alyssa Charlston had 12 points and 10 boards. Freshman Ali Forde had a career-high 15 rebounds, including seven on the offensive end, to go along with six points.
"That's always our game plan," Newlee said of having five double-figure scorers in the game. "It's an equal opportunity offense, it always has been. I liked the way we made the extra pass tonight, took some really good shots and shot the ball well. I loved the offensive rebounding effort, that was huge. Size-wise we matched up well with them and we knew it was going to be an effort thing, and we had great effort on the o-boards."
The Vandals jumped out to a 15-10 lead in the first half before San Jose State tied the game at 15-all. That's when the Vandals used a 16-0 run that lasted nearly six and a half minutes to take a commanding 31-15 lead. Idaho extended that lead to 19 points, 44-25, by halftime.
The lead increased to as many as 28 points at 59-31 with 15 minutes to play before SJSU was able to pull within 13 points twice in the final two minutes of the game, but never closer.
Idaho connected on 11-of-22 3-pointers on Thursday and in its two WAC games is 20-of-37 (54 percent) from long range, leading the conference in both 3-point percentage and makes during league games. The Vandals shot 30-of-75 (40 percent) from the field and 11-of-16 (69 percent) from the free throw line, and held the Spartans to 34 percent from the field and just 23 percent from long range.
The Vandals dominated on the glass, out-rebounding the Spartans 60-39 overall and 23-14 on the offensive end to aid a 22-12 advantage in second-chance points.
Idaho senior Jessica Graham finished with six points, three rebounds and two assists and sophomore Maren Austgulen had four points, four rebounds and an assist in 10 minutes of play.
San Jose State was led by a game-high 20 points from Ta'Rae Cunnigan. Alexis Hill added 13 points and Jayzyl Tauala had 12 points. Riana Byrd added six points and 12 rebounds for the Spartans.
The Vandals wrap up their current three-game WAC home stand on Saturday when they face WAC preseason favorite Utah State at 2 p.m. The Aggies enter the week as the league's only 2-0 team, led by Preseason WAC Player of the Year Devyn Christensen, the second leading scorer in the conference.
"They're extremely talented offensively, they've got a lot of weapons starting with Christensen and going on down the line," Newlee said of the Aggies. "They can really shoot the basketball, they like to press some and get out in transition. We're going to have to get after shooters, play hard defensively and take care of the basketball."

Nominations are currently being accepted for the Wetland Warrior Awards, which honor the exemplary efforts of Delaware residents, organizations or businesses to protect state wetlands.
"Wetland Warriors are Delaware's environmental heroes who work tirelessly to slow wetland loss, help restore degraded wetlands, preserve habitat, increase awareness of the value of wetlands and bolster the support of their protection," said Margaret Pletta, an outreach specialist with DNREC.
Middletown resident Clif Bakhsh received a Wetlands Warrior Award last year. A member of Delaware Ducks Unlimited's Appoquinimink Chapter, Bakhsh was recognized for his dedication to preserving open space and educating children about the benefits of wetlands.
This year's awards will be presented to the winner at the Delaware State Fair in Harrington on July 25.
Nomination forms and additional information can be found at www.dnrec.delaware.gov/Admin/DelawareWetlands or by contacting Pletta by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com or calling 302-739-9939.

1989 GMC Suburban Body Kits
1989 GMC Suburban body kits are exterior components that can be used to revise and rejuvenate a outward look. After years of driving, the exterior components on many automobiles starts to look worn and old. Any damage to a car's paint job or to the exterior components themselves can lower a car's value, making the use of body kits is just that significant. A bodykit can change a ride appear newer, without changing any of the mechanics of the automobile.
Some astonishing 1989 GMC Suburban body kit products come with replacements for several highly affected exterior components, air dams and side skirts. These are the areas of a car that are often damaged from daily driving, but they aren't the only pieces that can be easily fixed. Other custom body parts can be used to upgrade a vehicle's look, so 1989 GMC Suburban body kit can often be special ordered to a driver's specific needs. For an upgraded look that replaces the old appearance resulting from years of usage, a cool body kit can make you smile.

Obama has failed to live up to my expectations. I hated Barbour because he was a fat cat white collar douche who marginalized education. Have you read ANYTHING at all abotu Snyder except the fact that he's considered a Republican?
qoorl i looked at that guys site for about 1 minute, literally he's a moron and would be one of the worst presidents of all time. dont be stupid qoorl, his positions on every important issue are aimed only at helping rich people.
reading more hes not as bad as he looks at first. he surprisingly has decent sentiments economically but his ideas are dumb and would do the opposite of what he claims he wants them to do.
this is the problem with when 'regular people' decide to run for office, they dont actually know anything and none of their positions make any sense
A few moderate republicans actually peak my interest from time to time, for example that fat New Jersey senator that should have run. Unfortunately or perhaps fortunately for democrats, they fail to stand out in the literal garbage that makes up most of the republican canidates.
Obama also started a more comprehensive medicare program, halted the recession (despite what republicans want you to believe, it started in Bush's term), ended the war in Iraq and even has a plan out of Afghanistan in motion. That is a heck of a lot more the what most presidents do in office.
I have a feeling Obama's going to win again.

if obama doesnt win america is the stupidest country ever
Yeah a 50% cut in the corporate tax would definately benefit the rich but wouldn't also stimulate job growth and help combat outsourcing to other countries? All the industry where I live has packed up and moved their factories to mexico? With stronger powers to unions I could see that really helping.
how could tax cuts possibly stop outsourcing
Many corporations move a lot of their production to other countries specifically to avoid high Corporate tax. With the tax in the U.S. lowered down to half of what it would normally be, there isn't as much reason to outsource. In fact, if it's just as cheap to have your factory somewhere you can drive in an hour, I'd say that's usually better than having it halfway around the world, especially if there's some sort of problem.

I figure Ron Paul needs a pity vote.
corporations dont outsource to avoid taxes, they outsource to pay lower wages
most corporations who outsource production remain headquartered in the us and pay us taxes no matter what
I think Ron Paul, even if you disagree with his views, admirably has principles and beliefs that he doesn't deviate from
Yeah but that's what's wrong with the U.S. political system. If Hitler was running in a U.S. election then I'd support him just because all of the other candidates would be people without any views other than those that various interest groups pressure them into having, and then other than that it's completely dominated by money. It's a sorry sight for anyone that isn't an American to observe and you should be ASHAMED
Our political system a) doesn't have any form of codified constitution, b) is based on feudal, outdated, hegemonic political and legal conventions, c) has a monarchy and barely any separation of powers. Cameron during the riots pulled a few strings and suddenly people posting Facebook comments about riots in a jestful satirical way were being handed out twenty year prison sentences. Yet, despite all that, somehow it's better than yours.

Tony Sparano pleas to refs saying "Now I'm getting fired"
It is never appropriate to eavesdrop. But sometimes it's necessary, and the information acquired is revealing.
That was the case on the sidelines of Sunday's 18-15 overtime loss in the fourth quarter when CBS4 caught a desperate Tony Sparano making a plea for the game's referees to review Demaryius Thomas' 5-yard touchdown catch, which appeared to be a drop.
Every touchdown is supposed to be reviewed, but Sparano had to call a timeout to encourage the game's officials to examine the catch, which trimmed Miami's lead to 15-7 with 2:44 left in the game.
Sparano was clearly frustrated and CBS4's cameras caught him venting, telling two officials: " If I don't call timeout we're all (explicit). Now I'm getting fired."
Sparano, whose team is 0-6, was clearly making his case for a review, which happened, but didn't get the touchdown catch overturned.
The statement from the Dolphins' head coach was revealing, and hints at his understanding of how unstable his footing is.
While sources tell the Sun-Sentinel Sparano is safe for now, common sense tells us it's only a matter of time before he's fired.
My column from Sunday discusses how much longer Sparano can survive? It examines why he hasn't been removed, and what are the options if he's let go during this season?
Here is what else the Sun-Sentinel has to offer you from Sunday's disaster.

EUR-USD lifted to a post-Brexit peak of 1.1146 following a forecast-beating preliminary estimate for Eurozone June HICP rising out of deflation to +0.1% y/y from -0.1% in May.

Of course, everyone has different experiences and the language seems to vary so much, and has moved on over the last decade. So don't be surprised

Getting real When I'm on tour, I usually don't get to see my family. So I said, "We're gonna do this reality show together" [Cyndi Lauper: Still So Unusual, on We TV]. The deal with my son, Declyn, was, "Whenever you feel it's enough, you walk away." Because of the show, I also got to see more of my husband [actor David Thornton] and my 82-year-old mother. It was an adventure.

I actually like the last look the best. My hair would be perfect for this style. I think I'll try it!

I have very straight hair that now is a bit shorter than I would like. The summer means up away from my neck as I have to walk everywhere and that means heat and sticking to me. I have to say, that I have not heard of a salt spray or was it sea. I can say, the sea water does wonders for my skin and hair. I do have a root volumizing spray and will try it this year. I found that when I once got a perm, the hair may have been easier to be off the face. Just don't like the process of chemicals on my hair. The braiding of the hair also will work if your hair is long, it adds body and was a good look if you have time.

I wear this look but I get it with "hot sticks" and shaping spray. I use a freeze it to hold .Lighter if I want it to blow in the breeze.

looks are cute, but in the summer heat, i feel like they all won't hold up. i like the pinned back bangs and the tousled/beachy looks best.

ALL US FNF SUPPORTERS NEED TO SIGN THE PETITION FOR THE ALBUM RELEASE OF LASERS. WITHOUT IT WE COULD POSSIBLY LOSE THIS ALBUM. HERE IS THE LINK http://www.petitiononline.com/mod_perl/signed.cgi?
I know we're all agitated regarding with the date of the releasing of the new Lupe album. We all know that he's busy with some tour going on and he's also having some problem with the recording company. Lets all just wait for it to be release and be sure to buy it.
Lupe recently said at a concert that I was at that the album is finished, it's just tied up with the record company. Don't blame him, blame music business politics. SN: I am dying waiting too though
I think the smartest thing to do is wait for the CD and stop complaining. Lupe will let it drop when he is ready. Until then, complaining is only going to make you want it all the more.
I agree. I've been waiting for this album since 08 when it was goin be the triple cd set. I wish he could release it independently somehow.
Record labels make music, not artists. Lasers will come out when the people that are higher than Atlantic (not Atlantic records themselves) feel Lupe is playing their game. Until that happens, he will be continued to be signed and stuck on a shelf.
It's a conundrum in life... Dr. Evil can never get his sharks with laser beams on their heads, and Lupe fans will never get Lasers. I am easy saying I am content with Lupe retiring. Also, at this point Lasers is a hip-hop urban legend just like Detox.
Dude. What action are you gonna take? Seriously, there are some good albums around and the old stuff. I'm sure you could still stumble on new stuff in the mixtapes.
i agree...its bs. he talks about it 2008 and then says it will be here in december of 09 and here we are at the start of summer still waiting. i know it may not be all on lupe and its the record label but i mean c'mon. its getting ridiculous. when 'i'm beamin' came out i thought we might be getting close to a release date but i guess not. somebody needs to wake up and at least get a release date set up so we at least have a set day to look forward to cjones out
