ZF-9855: Notice "Failed saving metadata to metadataCache" appears when TwoLevels cache backend is used for DB metadata caching
I'm trying to use TwoLevels cache backend in cache for DB metadata. I'm using default slow and fast backends (File and Apc). Here is a sample of code:
$cache = Zend_Cache::factory( 'Core', 'TwoLevels', array( 'automatic_serialization' => true, 'lifetime' => 86400 ), array( 'slow_backend_options' => array( 'cache_dir' => '/www/cludisc/tmp/tp_cache/dbmetadata' ) ), false, true ); $table = new TableClass(array( 'db' => $db, 'metadataCache' => $cache )); echo $table->find(123456)->current()->ID;
By first running when metadata isn't cached I get a notice "Failed saving metadata to metadataCache". I think a cause of this notice may be in Zend_Cache_Backend_TwoLevels->save() method. When usage of fast backend is too high and data is saved by a slow backend only there is a try to remove this data from fast backend (line 203 in Zend/Cache/Backend/TwoLevels.php). When Apc backend is used as fast one apc_delete() function is called in this case (line 127 in Zend/Cache/Backend/Apc.php). But there could be cases in which this data isn't in fast backend. In this case apc_delete() returns FALSE and save() method of metadata cache returns FALSE too as a result (line 825 in Zend/Db/Table/Abstract.php). It causes generating a notice at the next line. As a solution of this problem the following patch for Zend/Cache/Backend/Apc.php may be used:
< return apc_delete($id);
$removableData = apc_fetch($id); if ($removableData) { return apc_delete($id); } else { return true; }
Patch that fixes this issue
I'm trying to decide if the patch is the proper solution, or if TwoLevels should just ignore the result of _fastBackend->remove(). The patch adds some overhead to delete() (which is probably not much of a choke point.)
Fixed in r22736. Updated TwoLevels->save() to handle fast backends that return false for remove() operations that don't have existing keys (APC and File behave this way).
Includes test.

Has Dolphins owner Steve Ross lost his mind?
What in the world is Miami Dolphins owner Steve Ross doing talking about his team playing in the Super Bowl come February of 2011?
Ross is selling his product.
After all, the Dolphins are a business, and Ross has got an entire staff of people trying to sell tickets to Sunday's games. Why not create a few headlines by expressing a tremendous amount of confidence in the 2010 squad.
Ross is also endorsing his recent investments. Don't act like inside linebacker Karlos Dansby and receiver Brandon Marshall came cheap. You [the fans, the media, and critics] begged for a playmaking receiver and impact inside linebacker, so Ross signed off on spending $93 million on those TWO new pieces, whom he okay-ed making the highest paid players at their positions.
And let's not forget new defensive coordinator Mike Nolan, whom I was told is one of the highest paid defensive coordinators in the NFL.
Ross is providing the Trifecta, and Chad Henne, a vote of confidence. Ross still believes in this regime's ability to evaluate talent. He's confident the Dolphins will play more like they did in 2008 than in 2009. And he's super high on Henne, whom he followed closely as a Michigan alum and booster before he became a Dolphin.
Ross is being a fan of the team he grew up rooting for, and now owns (not for big time profits, but big time fun). This is June, and in June every team has the same shot of playing in the Super Bowl at this point.
Just ask the New Orleans Saints. Hell, the New York Jets almost made it last season and the Dolphins beat them TWICE in 2009.
Ross is ultimately being a homer by predicted the Dolphins will be playing in the Super Bowl come February, and what's wrong with that?
After all, he's got more inside info, and more invested in this team than all of us combined.
What's wrong with a bold Super Bowl prediction like the one Ross made on Saturday?
I say nothing. And I think he has just as much a chance of being right as he does of being wrong.
How far off from being Super Bowl worthy is this team?

Baltimore County News
Donna Bilz
Program Coordinator, Baltimore County Department of Aging
Think for a moment of your family members and friends who are 65 or older. Statistically, one in every three seniors takes a fall each year – often with serious consequences. Fortunately, falls are a public health problem that is largely preventable.
Falls can cause moderate to severe injuries, such as hip fractures and head traumas, and they are the leading cause of injury death among older adults. Even more alarming is the fact that death rates from falls among older men and women have risen sharply over the past decade.
The Baltimore County Department of Aging is spearheading a community effort to address this issue, and has formed the Gait Way to Better Balance Coalition. The mission of this broad partnership with health care providers and advocates is to reduce the risk of falls. The coalition provides free health screenings and fall prevention information to assist seniors in preventing falls and lowering their risks of injury if they do fall.
Older adults can remain independent and reduce their chances of falling. They can:
· Exercise regularly. It is important that the exercises focus on increasing leg strength and improving balance, and that they get more challenging over time. Tai Chi programs are especially good.
· Ask their doctor or pharmacist to review their medicines — both prescription and over-the counter — to identify medications that may cause side effects or interactions such as dizziness or drowsiness.
· Have their eyes checked by an eye doctor at least once a year and update their eyeglasses to maximize their vision. Consider getting a pair with single vision distance lenses for some activities such as walking outside.
· Make their homes safer by reducing tripping hazards, adding grab bars inside and outside the tub or shower and next to the toilet, adding stair railings and improving the lighting in their homes.
These simple steps can go a long way to protecting the health and safety of older adults.

Rated 4.4 out of 5 by 10 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Thebethel6 Good at first, great after breathing! I recently picked up this phenomenal red during a case sale for around $6 and would happily say that I would pay over $20 for it. The first night I tried it, I thought it was a decent red although a little mellow for a garnacha- deep body but more fruity notes and less spice than I expected. I poured a second glass the next night and hardly recognized it as the same wine. THIS is the taste I expect from a quality Spanish garnacha. Bold and deep flavors of berries and a hint of black grape, sweet tobacco, rich earthy tones and a more prominent spice but nothing over powering, with a rich velvety dry finish. All in all, incredibly easy drink and goes phenomenally with an herb and cheese ravioli in red sauce. October 1, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Derryl Super everyday red This is an excellent Spanish wine. I think Borsao is a second label of Tres Picos, which is a fine old vine Grenache. Borsao has similar lushness, although not as deep and refined. At less than half the price of Tres Picos, Borsao could be one of your everyday red choices, and Tres Picos one for your dinner parties. December 19, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Yoopergirl Great wine This is another of my favorite Spanish wines. It's very easy-going for a bold wine. Wonderful flavor. March 10, 2010
Rated 5 out of 5 by Gregorio Good Stuff Very even, not too dry or too fruity. Very smooth finish. Most people say "Wow" after their first sip. Highly recommend this wine. Wine is 75% Garnacha and 25% Temparnillo. December 19, 2008
Rated 4 out of 5 by George Two lip-smacks - great for the price This is a great Garnacha/Timpranillo blend - usually reversed in ratios but this works really well -- many more tastings necessary to prove the theory November 18, 2010
Rated 4 out of 5 by skeeterdan Great everyday value wine This is a wine we keep by the case. Great for beef, full flavored barbeques yet won't overpower pasta dishes. Surpurb with pizza. Easily my wife's favorite table wine. As in many spanish wines it won't berak the bank either. As for the sedement issue just decant the wine with a filter. This also helps the wine as it is usually a young wine at time of purchase. August 25, 2010
Rated 4 out of 5 by Alice, diverwoman Price important, buy this one! Great value and superb taste. March 11, 2010

Mequon shuffles TIF dollars to spur development
$1.8 million repurposed for developer incentives
Mequon - City officials plan to divert money toward incentives to entice developers and breathe life into the city's underperforming Town Center tax incremental financing district.
The Planning Commission on Monday adopted amendments to the TIF district plan and boundaries, adding two parcels near the corner of Mequon and Wauwatosa roads to the district, and repurposing $1.8 million of the city's investment in the district for developer incentives. The Common Council will need to review and approve the amended district plan and boundaries at an upcoming meeting.
Community Development Director Kim Tollefson said after the meeting that although the Common Council "didn't buy into the concept of developer incentives" when the district was created in 2008, upfront grants to developers, and "pay-as-you-go" grants which divert some money back to developers as they create additional tax revenue, have been successful in other city TIF districts. With an estimated $12 million proposed development by Wired Properties in the works - which will likely be supported by a portion of the $1.8 million - Tollefson estimated the district has generated an estimated $15 million in added value since 2008.
However, she estimates the district will require $45 million more in developments before there is enough additional tax revenue to pay off the city's investment, which is just north of $7 million.
"We can't pinpoint the year that's going to happen," Tollefson told the commission. "It's going to depend on what projects come forward at what time."
Another project on the way
It was the intent of the city and Common Council to include the two parcels at the intersection of Wauwatosa and Mequon roads within the district, Tollefson said, and the amendment corrects a mistake which left the properties out when the district was created.
"We've always talked about that area as being part of the Town Center and part of the (district)," she said.
By adding the two parcels, the commission brought the entirety of a proposed Outpost Natural Foods development - being developed by MSI General - into the district. That project will also depend on a yet-undetermined amount of the $1.8 million of developer incentives.
"We are in negotiations with the developer of that project in regards to incentives," Tollefson told the commission. "In staff's opinion, (a lack of incentive) would not allow that project to complete."
The value of the proposed Outpost, and the district's overall value after its completion, are unknown at this point.
More growth still required
Mayor Curt Gielow pointed out that the city needs additional developments to bring the Town Center district into the black.
"The development on the corner (Outpost) is not enough for (the district) to pay for itself," Gielow said. "We need more."
Alderman Dan Abendroth asked whether the $1.8 million is necessary to encourage development, and if it is the total amount the city will commit for incentives in the district.
Financial adviser Dawn Gunderson of public finance firm Ehlers said, by creating an incentive category within the district, funding could again be shifted.
"Once the category is there, the council has the authority to move money between line items," Gunderson told the commission. "You have the ability to in the future … to move money at any time."
Whether or not city officials choose to do that, Abendroth noted that the Common Council will need to find ways to keep the developments coming in order to pay of the public's investment in the Town Center.
"The job of the council is going to be to see where the money will come from to pay that debt," he said.
Below are the city's original and amended investments in the Town Center district, by category.
Original 2008 Plan/Amended 2013 Plan (percent change)
$813,250/$713,250 (-12.3)

Many people report that sharing experiences is a vital aspect of therapy. In addition to some form of medication, talk therapy has been shown to increase the effectiveness and success of treatment. NAMI offers programs to individuals living with mental illness (NAMI Peer-to-Peer) and their families (NAMI Family-to-Family) to help provide a setting not only for education about mental illness but a place to share their thoughts and experiences.
Sometimes NAMI will ask its members to share stories about their lives and how they handle living with mental illness. Below is a story from Pat Quinn, who has lived with schizophrenia for more than 20 years. Pat tells a story a story of hope and recovery and how he was able to gain control of his illness and of his life.
Pat Quinn's Story
By Pat Quinn
I remember when I was about 14 or 15 years of age, I had the world by the tail. I was on the basketball team. My classmates were all my friends. I was enjoying my life because it was the way I thought life was supposed to be. The world was there for me to grab and I was going to grab it.
Flash forward a few years to a very disturbed young man who was suddenly hit with delusions, paranoia and hallucinations. My family and I had no idea what was going on with me. Following my disastrous first quarter at Ohio State University, my life revolved around hospitals, doctors, a search for a proper diagnosis and the medication that would allow me to function without the horrible side effects that the old antipsychotics caused for me. My former friends all abandoned me except one. My recovery began with the total support of my family. With a large family (three brothers and three sisters), that meant a lot of support.
Although there was a time when I never thought I would hear myself say this, I see my illness as a learning experience. It has given me a compassion for other people's pain and the gift of putting my own pain in perspective. It has enabled me to bring some joy into some lives that, otherwise, I would not have been able to touch.
As Americans, we have a preconceived idea of recovery. When we are young, we fall off our bike and scrape our knee or elbow and what do we do? Run and tell Mom. Mom applies a little Neosporin and maybe a band-aid and pretty soon we are good as new. When we are teenagers we develop a headache from too much school work-what do we do? Take an aspirin, right? And pretty soon we are as good as new. When Dad falls and breaks an arm, there is a cast and maybe some surgery but within a relatively short amount of time, Dad is back running the farm.
One of the most difficult challenges faced by an individual living with mental illness and his family is to change this concept of recovery. Recovery from mental illness is a long and difficult process.
There were three essential elements to my journey of recovery: one, getting out of my bedroom and socializing, two, getting on the right medication and three, using my dad in helping with my faulty perception of reality. It is very important for someone with my illness to find a person they can trust, and believe, to give them a reality check.
I believe God plays an important role in my recovery. God says in Jeremiah 29, "I know well the plans I have in mind for you, plans for your welfare and not for your disaster, plans to give you a future full of hope. Then you will call to me. You will come and pray to Me and I will answer you .You will seek Me and you will find Me and I will restore your fortunes." He answers in Isaiah 30. "The Lord will make you go through hard times, but He Himself will be there to teach you, and you will not need to search for Him anymore, if you wander off the road to the right or the left, you will hear His voice behind you saying, here is the road, follow it." These words of scripture give me hope and strength. God has a plan for my life.
The caring professionals at a mental health services organization have been a great help to me. I have learned to have a sense of humor concerning my illness. I once asked a mental health professional, "Do you know which Christmas song is a schizophrenic's favorite?" The answer-"Do you hear what I hear?" I am a firm believer that work raises your self esteem and fattens your pocketbook. I lead a support group three times a week. This time I hope they don't keep me. I also work at Beacon Place, write articles for mental health newsletters and talk to law enforcement about NAMI's CIT programs.
Many people think when school is out, education ends. Not true! Education continues every moment you are alive! I have a degree in Social Work from Zane State College and a Specialized Study Degree from Ohio University, both associates. I help mom in my spare time, which gave me the incentive to move out! I have lived in my own apartment for 10 years.
Pearl S. Buck stated, "We learn as much from sorrow as from joy, as much from illness as from health, from handicap as from advantage-and, indeed, perhaps more."
I tell you today that there is hope. With new medications, therapy, the will to recover and the immense support of my family, I am reclaiming my life. It hasn't been easy and there is still a long bumpy road ahead, but I am determined to completely take control of this illness. I take my medication every day. I am certainly not healed, and my life is not perfect, but I run the illness, the illness does not run me.
Pat Quinn and his family have formed a band called the Quinn Family Singers. Every year they hold a concert, the Quinn Family Bash, to raise awareness of mental illness and the hope of recovery. This is its eleventh year. If you are in the Columbus, Ohio area, Pat and his family would like to extend an invitation to you to attend on Friday, April 8, in Zanesville, Ohio. For more information, check out the Quinn Family Bash Facebook page.

As a psychotherapist who has worked with thousands of single people over the past 27 years, I've come to the conclusion that the way we're taught to approach relationships is more likely to lead to heartbreak than to lasting love.
Whether you're just getting back into the dating game or have been at it for a while, you've probably experienced some of the anxiety that comes with the search for true love. But much of that is the unnecessary byproduct of how we've been conditioned to approach our dating life.
In other words, it makes sense that we feel lost. We've been handed a defective map of the path to love!
Take a look at most of the popular dating advice. What are single people constantly encouraged to do? Improve themselves if they wish to find love.
"Lose weight. Get in shape. Dress better. Be confident. Cast a wider net. Be a vixen, learn to seduce. Keep your partner guessing." In this worldview, youth, beauty and confidence are the magic talismans that lead to success.
Yet all those exhortations to "improve" ultimately erode whatever confidence we may have started with. The bottom line is, this soulless approach doesn't lead to love. It leads to insecurity and desperation.
There is a wiser path to finding love, though, one that's not based on game-playing or cosmetic change. It's based upon revealing who we really are and then choosing only people who truly value us. Best of all, I've found that this approach, which I call "Deeper Dating," actually favors people in their late 40s, 50s and older because at this stage of life, we are much less willing to waste our time in the pursuit of unhealthy relationships.
I've boiled the dating process down to four steps that are likely to lead to healthy love. And you'll be pleased to know that none of them relates to your age, hairline or waist size.
We've all heard some version of these ideas before. Yet in our 20s, 30s and even our early 40s, most of us weren't ready to listen. The thrill of the hunt still blinded us. But as we enter midlife, the idea of building sustainable and sustaining love becomes more compelling than ever.

4 Steps to Finding Lasting Love
1. Give up on your "attractions of deprivation." It's easy to become attracted to people who can almost commit — who treat us wonderfully then demean or ignore us. These attractions spring from early feelings of inadequacy, usually in relation to our parents. There's nothing more exciting than trying to seduce these partners into loving us fully. There's also nothing more frustrating. We always feel we're one step away from "getting it right."
Because these relationships are highly charged and gnawingly addictive, I call them "attractions of deprivation."
At a certain point — and this is one of the great gifts of getting older — many of us decide we don't want to be hurt like that again. We'd rather be alone than in a bad relationship. We've been there and done that, and we're done. When we reach this stage, a dead-end era of our dating lives draws to a close, and we can begin the real work of intimacy: cultivating our attraction to relationships that feed and nurture us.

Psst, come closer. I want to share a well-kept secret with you - "Leafcycling." Haven't heard of "Leafcycling?" Well, you're not alone. So let me tell you a little story. To start, we must go back to spring when the deciduous trees are emerging from their long winter "sleep" and their leaves begin to grow.
Leaves take in sunlight and carbon dioxide, and through an amazing process turn it into the food that a tree needs to thrive. Leaves also produce life-giving oxygen for the planet and help to moderate its temperature. Leaves perform this task day in and day out from spring to fall.
When summer ends and temperatures drop, these hard-working little gems provide a magnificent show of colors. But even as these little wonders fall from their branches, they still have much to offer when given the chance. That is where "Leafcycling" comes into play.
Instead of wasting your leaves by raking, bagging and putting them out for the County to collect, put these little gems to use enriching your yard. The easiest way to "Leafcycle" is to run your lawnmower over the leaves where they have fallen and leave the clippings on the lawn. These clippings will decompose over time and enrich the soil with valuable nutrients.
There are a few simple rules that you should follow when "Leafcycling" to obtain the best results:
- Instead of waiting for all of the leaves to fall and mulching them in one cutting, do multiple cuttings. This is especially true if you have a lot of leaves.
- Chop the leaves as finely as possible. The finer the particles, the quicker they will decompose. A mulching mower will assist in this process, but any mower can be used.
- Make sure the leaf particles don't cover the tops of the grass blades. You don't want to smother your lawn.
If the mulched leaves are higher than the tops of the grass blades, you can place the excess around your annual plants, shrubs, hedges and trees. A six-inch layer of mulched leaves will quickly settle into the ideal three-inch layer that will help to keep soil moist and protect the plants' roots through winter.
Make it easy on yourself and give your lawn, garden and the environment a boost by using these little gems as I intended.

All things Mother Earth Living
by Robyn Griggs Lawrence, Editor at Large
Costa Rica, Rancho Margo, travel
I'm not going back. I've found my home, and the only thing missing is my kids.
We've just spent two days at Rancho Margot, a 500-acre self-sufficient organic farm and community overlooking Costa Rica's Mount Arenal and Arenal Lake. I've showered using water heated by methane from the farm's blackwater compost system, with soap made here on the farm. We practiced yoga to the sound of the rushing Cano Negro River, then feasted on an omelet made with fresh eggs and the farm's homemade cheddar cheese. Pieter is in the kitchen with Fernando, brining a just-slaughtered chicken that they'll cook in the wood-fired brick oven. Next door, children on break from the local school are laughing and climbing on jungle gyms built from logs and old tires in Rancho Margot's free day care center.
I'm sitting in the farm's open-air dining area, dying to capture this place's magic, but words seem insufficient. I keep stopping to chat with staff, volunteers and guests as they come through with hot coffee dosed with warm just-pasteurized milk and plates of fresh papaya. Irum, a yoga teacher whose class this morning opened up my chakras and started the tears flowing, tells me about her journey here. She felt the magic, left her corporate job and is now building the first privately owned house here. I fight back more tears.
Juan Sostheim has built this community as a place for people to connect—with like-minded others, with the land and with our own inner voices. You can't come here and experience this farm's rhythms without beginning to question things. Here, possibility blossoms into reality with a force matched only by Mother Earth herself. Why couldn't the methane generated by the community's compost be used to heat the water? Juan gave it a try and found out that it could. Why couldn't the farm grow pineapples without chemicals—in a country that uses more chemicals per acre than any other? It took three years to produce one pineapple, but now the fields are full of them. Why couldn't the farm's volunteers and staff help resuscitate monkeys, hawks and other animals whose traumas would otherwise leave them helpless and vulnerable? So far, one ocelot, two monkeys, five parakeets, one raccoon, four deer and 11 aguti pacas have been rehabbed here and released back into the wild. Why couldn't emus replace resource-intensive cattle as a sustainable source of red meat? Juan just bought 11 of the dinosaur-like birds and is incubating eggs to find out.
With horses, kayaks, mountain bikes, hot pools and 11 natural springs, Rancho Margot is a vacation paradise—but that's not really the point. After suffering a heart attack and being told that he could either change his lifestyle or become his cardiologist's best patient, Juan sold his chemical business and transformed his life. He helped introduce Burger King to Europeans in the 1970s; he understands the threat that our industrial food complex presents. "We feed our animals wrong, and we feed ourselves wrong," he told me. "We become the recycling unit for all the garbage that's out there." Juan sees the food crisis that's just around the bend, and he wants everyone to learn how to eat what they have on hand.
His goal with this place is to show the world that there's a better way—that we can untangle ourselves from the grid and thrive. Once guests taste the difference in pork that's been fed table scraps rather than concentrate, plug their computers (yes, we all brought them) into the hydro-powered energy system or spend the morning watching hummingbirds flit from flower to flower, they can't help but take all this possibility home with them. If they can bring themselves to leave.

US Catholic Institutions and Immigrant Integration: Can They Rise to the Challenge?
Monday, February 24, 2014
8:30am to 5:00pm
Casa Italiana
595 1/2 3rd Street NW
Washington D.C. 20001
Agenda and List of Speakers Coming Soon
The Catholic Church's pastoral, charitable, health, labor, legal services, refugee resettlement, educational, ethnic, and community-organizing ministries and institutions — many of which were originally founded to address the needs of immigrants and their progeny — face critical opportunities and challenges in meeting the needs of today's immigrants. Over the last year, the Catholic Immigrant Integration Project – which is comprised of leaders from these diverse institutions — has documented the church's work (past and present) with immigrants and has identified successful integration practices. The project has also worked to develop a distinctly Catholic definition of "integration" that can guide the church's work in this area.
The Center for Migration Studies (CMS) invites you to join service providers, immigrant leaders, scholars, and others for a full day conference on the Church's work to further the integration and well-being of immigrants and how Catholic institutions might collectively expand and improve their integration work. This public event also marks the beginning of a year-long celebration of CMS's 50th anniversary.
To register, please email your name, title and organization to email@example.com.

I am slightly getting confused on the following issue:
When performing double-slit experiment of electrons, a screen allows the matter waves to be detected as particles. And as we all know that everything around us in fact consists of matter waves, the screen must also be formed of matter waves.
Then, what makes matter waves to collapse into particles? Does the screen allow detection as particles because it is a different type of particles?

Still wondering and worrying that 4K isn't going to take off? Check out NPD DisplaySearch's latest numbers.
The firm just released its latest NPD DisplaySearch Quarterly Large Area TFT Panel Shipment Report, which says that a whopping 2.6 million 4Kx2K LCD TV panels will ship by the end of 2013. This means that the technology, also known as Ultra HD, will grow 40-fold. After all, 2012′s numbers were somewhere around 63,000.
According to the report, TFT LCD panel suppliers will play a pivotal role in 4K×2K LCD TV adoption, via cost-effective solutions and new technologies. NPD DisplaySearch specifically mentions high-transmittance cell designs, high-output driver integrated circuits (ICs), and high-efficiency backlight units and integrated up-scaling circuits for 4K×2K panels.
"To date, Innolux Corp. has been the most aggressive panel manufacturer in this market segment, developing a full line-up of 4K×2K panels in the 39- to 85-inch range," says David Hsieh, VP of NPD DisplaySearch's Greater China Market. "Despite this, 4K×2K panel manufacturers' shipments are primarily focused on 50-, 55/58-, and 65-inch sizes, which are expected to have the highest volume shipments, especially in China."
Of course, the above data doesn't necessarily mean that everyone is going to rush out and build a home theater around a 4K display. That would be nice, but it seems like these numbers are factoring in the commercial market, which includes digital signage. In fact, panel manufacturers are hoping to strengthen relationships with any and all LCD TV brands, to bring the tech to the masses.
"4K×2K LCD TV is the newest TV technology available, and in order for it to be successful, it will be critical for the supply chain to avoid falling behind when making their purchases, even if content is still scarce," adds Hsieh. "Some panel makers are also working with design houses to develop circuits built into the panel, to enable up-scaling of HD to 4K×2K content. This will help to drive the 4K×2K LCD TV market and encourage panel makers, especially those that have already started design-in work with TV brands in 2013."

For his debut at Blaffer Art Museum, the artist's first solo museum exhibition, Coolquitt will recombine 60 discrete sculptures and tableaux made between 2006 and 2011 into a site-specific installation which, in its singularity and temporariness, reflects on the condition of the gallery space as a codified place of encounter for people and works of art. The exhibition will also include pieces that occupy a hybrid position between autonomous artworks by Coolquitt and what the artist calls somebody-mades and in-betweens. Somebody-mades are assemblages of objects that are presented just as the artist found them in the streets, while in-betweens combine such found assemblages with interventions of his own. Presented alongside and interspersed with his own work, these elements serve to further complicate the relationship between the contexts of creation and reception, artist and audience, and blur the boundaries between art and life.
The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated monograph co-published by Blaffer Art Museum and University of Texas Press with contributions by Rachel Hooper, Dan Fox, Matthew Higgs, and Jan Tumlir.
The Summer Book Club is back! We will be reading Jasmine by Bharati Mukherjee this month. Jasmine is the story of Jyoti, a young woman who leaves her native India for America, where she twice reinvents herself, eventually settling in rural Iowa with the name "Jane Ripplemeyer." The New York Time Book Review praised it as, "One of the most suggestive novels we have about what it is to become an American."
Afterwards we will meet in the Women's Resource Center at noon on Wednesday, June 26th to socialize and discuss the book. (The Women's Resource Center is located on the second floor of the UC, beside the bank.)
Bring a brown bag lunch and we'll provide the drinks and desserts.
All students, staff, faculty and alumni are welcome to participate. Contact Catherine Essinger at firstname.lastname@example.com you wish to borrow a copy of the book from the UH Libraries.

Hazmat responds to Daytona courthouse after suspicious letter sent to judge
Published: Monday, April 22, 2013 at 12:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, April 22, 2013 at 4:44 p.m.
DAYTONA BEACH -- An envelope sent to a judge in Volusia County was deemed suspicious enough to warrant an investigation by a hazardous materials team, fire officials said.
Officials responded to the S. James Foxman Justice Center, 251 N. Ridgewood Ave., about 11:45 a.m. Monday and set up their investigation.
They tested the contents of the letter for anthrax and ricin but the results came back negative.
The envelope was addressed to Circuit Judge R. Michael Hutcheson and had a letter inside, officials said. There was no return address and fire officials would not reveal what the letter said.
Letters to judges are regularly checked by deputies, said Cmdr. Nick Castelli, who is in charge of the Volusia County Fire Services Hazmat team. Two deputies who touched the envelope were quarantined during the investigation, he said.
The letter incident comes a couple hours after two men called in a bomb threat to a Seabreeze Boulevard office building where the local FBI and many other companies do their business. The all-clear was given at 444 Seabreeze before 11 a.m.

A forward-thinking matron in Vienna at the turn of the 20th century, Adele Bloch-Bauer is most recognizedtoday as the subject of a famous painting by Art Nouveau master Gustav Klimt. With her strong jaw and heavy-lidded eyes, Bloch-Bauer—Klimt's muse and rumored lover—looks as "sultry as a diva of thesilentscreen," says Anne-Marie O'Connor in the captivating biography The Lady in Gold(Knopf). She describes how the Nazis stole the painting and erased the subject's Jewish identity by changing the title from Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauerto Dame in Gold. In the 1990s Bloch-Bauer's niece, an octogenarian living in Los Angeles, successfully sued for the portrait's return from Austria. It now hangs in New York's Neue Galerie, a symbol of a lost world and a tribute to a determined, justice-seeking heir.

By Richard Bertin
February 1, 2012 — On the night of Monday, January 30, I took part in NYC's 10th annual Homeless Outreach Population Estimate (HOPE) — a citywide survey administered by the Department of Homeless Services (DHS) and dependent upon thousands of volunteers to count the homeless found in public spaces. I had mixed feelings in the days leading up to this volunteer project, but when I returned home, at around 4am, I brought back with me a profound sense of gratitude for everyday things that many take for granted.
This year, the volunteer team from Catholic Charities New York was dedicated to the Bronx. Along with hundreds of fellow volunteers, we gathered at one of two sites — Lehman College or PS/IS 194. I chose Lehman College since it was closest to my apartment and because of my familiarity with the area. After being rounded up into "teams" and receiving a detailed training session from DHS reps, we were given neighborhood walking maps and finally set off into the night at half past midnight.
My team was assigned the Riverdale section of the Bronx, an affluent enclave known more for its beauty than its homeless population. My teammates and I were a bit puzzled over this assignment but still took our orders seriously.
The eight of us resembled a civic-minded variation of "The Apprentice," as we spent the first 30 minutes trying to determine who had the best strategy for canvassing the 10-block radius of sidewalks and alleys. My team was composed of very different and colorful characters, each passionate about the HOPE project. There was Willy B., a large, affable man who talked about how he "does this for a living" each night for a local homeless shelter named The Living Room; Allison, a young off-duty police officer who came all the way from upstate to take part in the survey; Netti, an older Turkish cab driver who was our best "wheel-man", and many others I will not forget.
Our first area was the most difficult. A Google Map print out with arrows pointing us into different walking directions served as our guide. By the time we got to our location it was after 1am. In such a quiet, secluded area, we were the only souls moving around the stillness of the neighborhood. It was so quiet that someone opened their window and shouted at us "Shut up already! It's almost two in the morning!" I shot back, "Sorry Sir; we are on official city business here!" After an hour-long search of the area, we moved on to the second and third maps.
Truth be told, I learned more about homelessness from my team members than anything else. Willy B. explained to me the crucial importance of affordable housing, since many people often don't realize they are only one pay check or illness away from homelessness. Allison shared stories of "code blue" nights, when police officers perform rescue missions to save those stranded on the streets during life-threatening frigid temperatures and snowstorms.
These stories and these people are what will stick with me most from the evening of HOPE.
As we roamed from sidewalk to sidewalk, alley to alley, and bench to bench, we didn't find anyone. If we did, we were instructed by DHS to ask them the questions of the survey and ultimately direct them towards a nearby shelter. I didn't think this was the most accurate method for determining the homeless population, but HOPE is designed to be more of a homeless program evaluation method than a census.
Similar to the infamous "mystery shoppers" that anyone who has ever worked retail is familiar with, the HOPE survey serves as a snapshot to determine how well New York Homeless Services is doing in keeping people off the street.
By 3:30am we were finished but hadn't found any homeless in our assigned areas. With the exception of a stray alley cat, our tours indicated that Riverdale doesn't seem to have any homeless problems. When we returned to Lehman College we found out that most teams, 10 in total, had similar results.
I did wonder – what would these results look like on a warmer night?
As New Yorkers, we are familiar with homelessness. We see it as we bustle through the sidewalks on our way to work. We ignore it when we burry our heads into our tablets on the train while someone pleads with an entire subway car for help. It's just one of those harsh realities of living here that we come face to face with each day and yet manage to keep from intruding on our lives. As we roamed the streets, I couldn't help but think about my warm bed waiting for me. When I finally got back home and dove head first into my mattress I thought how fortunate I was to have this luxury.

Medicare Proposes Paying for Comparative Clinical Trials
Medicare may soon begin paying for drugs and devices used in clinical trials that compare the effectiveness of competing FDA-approved therapies. A draft memo circulated earlier this month by the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services would reverse a policy that has been in effect since June 2000. Under that policy, the agency pays for the routine physician costs of seniors who participate in clinical trials, but not for the "investigational" drug, device or test, even if it is already FDA-approved and routinely covered by the Medicare outside the clinical trial. This policy prohibited Medicare from participating in trials comparing competing treatments, which could save taxpayers money by steering seniors to less costly but equally effective medicines and procedures. "We're proposing a change so that we will be able to participate in these studies," said Leslye Fitterman, an epidemiologist with CMS' Coverage and Analysis Group. "We would pay for the drug if (CMS) already pays for it outside the study."
At stake is the ability of Medicare to generate objective, scientific data for making payment decisions that can save taxpayers money without harming beneficiaries. The issue came up earlier this year when CMS refused to pay for the routine cost of care for seniors who took part in a National Institutes of Health-sponsored clinical trial comparing two Genentech drugs for macular degeneration (MD). According to the Wall Street Journal, Genentech refused to provide NIH with free drugs, which made the cost of the trial prohibitively expensive for the agency to manage alone. Lucentis, which costs about $2,000 a shot, is already approved for the condition and costs Medicare over $200 million a quarter. Avastin, which is essentially the same drug but is only approved for use against cancer, costs $40 a shot when used for MD. Physicians using Avastin off-label have reported results comparable to Lucentis. A successful government-sponsored test, if published a major peer-reviewed journal, would allow Medicare to pay for the cheaper alternative.
The CMS draft policy should give a boost to legislation co-sponsored by Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) that would create a new federal agency free from conflicts of interest to conduct comparative effectiveness trials. In a recent review in Health Affairs(subscription required), Gail Wilensky, the head CMS in the George H.W. Bush administration, noted that "there is widespread agreement on the attributes that need to be associated with a comparative-effectiveness center: objectivity in the selection of what is studied, credibility in the findings, and independence—from political pressures generated either by government or by private-sector stakeholders."
Senate Committee Moves Flawed FDA Reform Bill
The Senate's Health Education Labor and Pensions committee last week approved reauthorization of prescription drug user fees without including a ban on conflicts of interest on Food and Drug Administration advisory committees. The bill allows the FDA to use some industry-paid fees for identifying unsafe drugs and reviewing direct-to-consumer advertising. But its conflict of interest provisions only require giving the public two weeks advanced notice before placing scientists with ties to industry on advisory committees. A recently proposed FDA guidance would prohibit anyone with over $50,000 a year in financial ties to drug firms from serving, and would prevent anyone with lesser ties from voting. "I understand the argument" of those who want a total ban, Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-MA), chairman of the committee, said at the outset of the hearing. But "we're doing this so we can get the best advice." The House, meanwhile, began hearings on its FDA reform bill last week. Rep. Lois Capps (D-CA) questioned the agency's continued reliance on scientists with conflicts of interest.
NIEHS Still Outsourcing Environmental Health Perpsectives?
Congressmen Henry Waxman (D-CA) and Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) are demanding that the National Institutes of Health abandon plans to privatize Environmental Health Perspectives, the premier journal in its field. According to their early April letter (http://oversight.house.gov/story.asp?ID=1240) to NIH director Elias Zerhouni, the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) through the National Library of Medicine will soon release a new request for proposals from universities or academic publishers interested in taking over EHP. The House Committee on Oversight and Reform is investigating NIEHS's efforts to sell publishing rights to the journal and opposes any action before its investigation is complete, the letter said. An earlier attempt to privatize EHP was halted by NIH because geographical restrictions favored Duke University Press, the former employer of NIEHS director David Schwartz. Recent budget cutbacks at EHP will be apparent to readers in next month's issue.
One On, Two Conflicted Scientist Off EPA Air Pollution Panel
Ignoring protests from consumer watchdog groups, the EPA has appointed two conflicted scientists to the Clean Air Scientific Advisory Committee primary advisory panel that will evaluate NOx and SOx pollution. In January, CSPI wrote to the EPA opposing the nomination of Richard B. Schlesinger, who has received financial support from the American Petroleum Institute, and Christian Seigneur, who works for Air Quality Division at Atmospheric & Environmental Research (AER) Inc., which is funded by three organizations (API, the Electric Power Research Institute and the Health Effects Institute) that receive money from industries that have a direct financial interest in the committee's decisions. The final roster did exclude Roger McClellan, the New Mexico-based industry consultant whom clean air advocates also protested.
NEJM Bars Industry-backed Prof for Leaking Trial Results
The New England Journal of Medicine has barred Columbia University cardiologist Martin Leon from peer-reviewing papers or writing reviews or editorials for five years after he broke the news embargo on the recently published COURAGE trial, which showed that drug therapy was as effective as invasive procedures in curbing heart attacks, the Heartwire on WebMD (registration required) reports. Leon, one of the paper's original reviewers, told reporters at a late March conference that the trial was "rigged to fail, and it did." Leon's comments, reported in the Wall Street Journal, sent device manufacturer stocks plunging. Leon runs an annual conference on Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics that relies on fees from drug device manufacturers. An NEJM spokeswoman said the sanctions were imposed because reviewers are required to remain anonymous.
Odds and Ends
The FDA's antiviral advisory committee that meets Tuesday to consider Pfizer's application for Celsentri (maravicoc), the first drug in a new class of anti-AIDS medicines, includes Duke Medical Center's Barbara Alexander, who "a href="http://www.fda.gov/ohrms/dockets/ac/07/waivers/2007-4283w01-Alexander-ack.pdf">receives less than $10,000 a year in speaking fees from Pfizer. The FDA claimed it couldn't find her expertise in AIDS-related co-infections elsewhere . . . More than 20 health and environmental advocacy groups have urged(subscription required) the Bush administration to toughen air quality standards for ground-level ozone. The current standard hasn't been updated since 1997.
Cheers and Jeers

|Vandals Prep for UVU, CSUB
MOSCOW, Idaho—The Idaho Vandals packed up and hit road after enjoying the home field advantage for the past five games. Idaho will take on Utah Valley on Friday and CSU Bakersfield on Sunday to open the road portion of the Western Athletic Conference Schedule.
Utah Valley (5-5-0, 3-3-0 WAC) and CSU Bakersfield (1-8-1, 0-2-1 WAC) sit opposite each other in the current WAC standings, but head coach Pete Showler says that doesn't make a difference when it comes to preparing for either team.
"We prepare for any team as we are ready for a battle," Showler said. "We have to go into the tough games in the conference and take each game as it comes. There are 10 games left and a long way to go."
The Wolverines topped Grand Canyon, 5-3, in last week's play. Their five goals on Sunday marked their largest offensive output of the season. Sophomore Kali Stubbs has scored in three consecutive matches for Utah Valley and is tied for the team lead in goals this season with four. Although new to the WAC in 2013 UVU hasn't lost a conference match in 10 games, dating back to Oct. 20, 2011.
Bakersfield played Grand Canyon to a 1-1 draw in Phoenix last week. Erica Shelton leads the 'Runners with eight points on the season (3g, 2a). CSUB has only been able to find the back of the net once in WAC play. They were shutout in back-to-back matches against UVU to open conference play.
Friday's kickoff at Utah Valley will be the latest starting time of the season. The Vandals will take to the field for a 6:00 p.m. PT start. Sunday at Bakersfield is set for a 1:00 p.m. PT start. Live stats for both matches will be available on GoVandals.com.

Who is eligible to be an HOA board member?
It is election time for many HOAs. I've received a number of questions about who is eligible for candidacy for the board. Florida Statutes Section 720.306 (9)(a) and (b) answers this question.
All members of the association are eligible to serve on the board of directors, with two exceptions. Those exceptions are
(1) a person delinquent in the payment of any fee, fine or other monetary obligation for more than 90 days; and
(2) a person who has been convicted of any felony in Florida, or in a US District or Territorial Court, or has been convicted of any offense in another jurisdiction which would be considered a felony if committed in this state. To vote, a felon must have had his/her civil rights restored for at least 5 years as of the date the person seeks election to the board.
Although the statutes frequently defer to the governing documents, that is not the case for board eligibility. The HOA's governing documents (Declaration, articles and bylaws) may not create more restrictive board qualifications than the statute allows. However, the documents may be more expansive. For example, some Declarations do not require a board candidate to be a member of the association. While this is unusual, it is not unprecedented.
The condo statute is similar but not exactly the same as far as eligibility. If you have questions about board eligibility, you should contact an attorney knowledgeable in association law.

So, what are we REALLY doing about Mars?
Did you go on a Mars Adventure yet?
The first spacecraft from Earth to visit Mars was Mariner 4 in 1965. Since then, several robotic spacecraft have flown by, orbited, or landed on Mars and sent back lots of information about this world so different from our own.
Mars is a cold, bleak wasteland, with very thin air that we Earthlings could never breathe. However, many of the pictures our telescopes, orbiters, and rovers have sent back show signs that liquid water might have been on the surface of Mars long ago. Also, we can see ice caps at the north and south poles.
All these signs of water are very exciting. Why? Because on Earth, almost everywhere there is water, there is life. Whether the water is boiling hot or frozen, some sort of creature seems to thrive in it. Is it the same on other planets? If water once flowed on Mars, did life once thrive there too? Or, maybe there is still water on Mars, only it has gone underground. Could there be tiny life forms, like bacteria, on Mars even now?
NASA's Mars Exploration Program is about "Following the Water." Even if we do not find life on Mars, if there is water, perhaps someday Mars could be inhabited by us!
NASA's four goals in exploring Mars:
- Find out whether life ever existed on Mars.
- Learn about the climate on Mars.
- Learn about the geology on Mars.
- Prepare for humans to go to Mars!

Santiago de Cuba Travel guide
Santiago de Cuba : Michelin's recommendations
This city is a bustling place both by day and by night, with more than half a million inhabitants of Spanish, African, Jamaican, French and Chinese ancestry. The atmosphere in its dilapidated little streets running down towards the bay alternates between indolence and vitality. While music is part of everyday life all year round, it takes centre stage during the carnival when the whole city seems to regress into its seemingly natural state of chaotic yet charming animation.

Video adapter problems are the most common cause of this issue.
Try the following troubleshooting procedures, in order. If the steps in the first procedure don't fix the problem, move on to the next procedure.
Right-click the taskbar, and then click Start Task Manager.
Click the Processes tab, click explorer.exe, and then click End Process.
Click File, and then click New Task (Run).
In the Open text box, enter explorer.exe, and then click OK.
Double-click Display adapters, right-click your display device, click Update Driver Software, and then follow the steps in the wizard that appears.
After the driver is reinstalled, you might need to restart your computer again to complete the installation. You might also need to adjust the screen resolution to its previous setting. For more info, see Change your screen resolution.
If these steps solved the problem, you're done. If not, go on to the next set of steps.
Click File, and then click New Task (Run)
Browse to the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
Click to select the WinLogon key, and then, in the right pane, click Shell. The value of Shell in the Data column should be explorer.exe. If the value of Shell isn't explorer.exe, double-click Shell, and then, in the Value data text field, enter explorer.exe, and then click OK.
Close the registry editor, and then restart your PC.
Do one of the following:
If your computer has a single operating system installed, press and hold the F8 key as your computer restarts. You must press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then shutting down and restarting your computer.
If your computer has more than one operating system, use the arrow keys to highlight the operating system you want to start in safe mode, and then press F8.
On the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to highlight Safe Mode, and then press Enter.
Log on to your computer with a user account that has administrator rights.
When your computer is in safe mode, you'll see the words Safe Mode in the corners of your monitor.
Choose a restore point when your PC worked as expected, click Next, and then click Finish.
Restart your computer normally.
If these steps solve the problem, you're done. If not, try repeating the steps and selecting an older restore point (if one is available).
If that still doesn't solve the problem, contact your computer manufacturer or technical support for further assistance.

ZF-6872: Reply-To support (encoding)
Reply-To field, when added with addHeader, is not encoded correctly if it contains non-Latin characters (I'm using UTF-8 charset).
There is no special function to add Reply-To field, so it's impossible to set the personal name and the address separately. But if they are set together and encoded together - I don't know if that complies with the standards, but at least MS Outlook doesn't understand the value correctly.
Hi, I hope you would use setHeaderEncoding(Zend_Mime::ENCODING_BASE64) before addHeader.
Probably, encoding problem could be solved.
Can you explain exactly what you are calling? Although i understand the problem, i'd like to see some sample snippet to verify that i understand the behaviour correctly.
I tried to set Reply-To field to this:
"Jānis" email@example.com
In Outlook the header looks like this:
Reply-To: =?UTF-8?Q?"J=C4=81nis"=20<mail-91-129-d61e832y789uc2fd6c@mailgate.?= =?UTF-8?Q?unrppublic.com>?=
And when I click on "Reply", the receivers address is filled with this:
Jānis email@example.com <=?UTF-8?Q? J=C4=81nis =20<mail-91-129-d61e832y789uc2fd6c@mailgate.?= =?UTF-8?Q?unrppublic.com>?=>
I'm not sure, maybe it would even work, but at least it looks ugly and wrong. :)
Added new function setReplyTo(). It correctly encodes the Reply-To header with name.
Will be included in next minor release.

Mozzarella Ham Stromboli RecipeRead Reviews Be the first to add a review
5 15 25
"The original recipe for this savory bread called for salami, but I use ham instead," writes Janice Brightwell of Jeffersonville, Indiana. "People are always amazed that it only takes about 15 minutes to assemble. I usually serve it with tomato soup."
- 1 tube (11 ounces) refrigerated crusty French loaf
- 2 cups (8 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 pound thinly sliced deli ham
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
- Preheat oven to 375°. On a lightly floured surface, unroll dough. Pat dough into a 14x12-in. rectangle. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over dough to within 1/2 in. of edges. Top with a single layer of ham.
- Roll up tightly from a short side; pinch seam to seal. Place seam side down on an ungreased baking sheet. Brush top of loaf with butter; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
- Bake 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack 5 minutes. Cut with a serrated knife. Yield: 6 servings.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum is pleased to partner with Microsoft Zune for Five Minutes with Fame, an exclusive video series on the Zune Marketplace featuring singers, songwriters and bands at the forefront of today's music. After a behind-the-scenes tour of the Museum, we sit down with artists to talk about their music, their road to success, inspirations, being on tour and of course, some of their favorite artists and artifacts highlighted in the Museum. This week's featured group is Neon Trees.
With influences that include Depeche Mode, Michael Jackson, Led Zeppelin and Bruce Springsteen, it's no surprise that Neon Trees deliver a hook-laden New Wave sound with a hard hitting rock and roll backbone. Lead vocalist and keyboardist Tyler Glenn and guitarist Chris Allen first started playing together as the Neon Trees in their native Southern California in 2005. The two friends eventually moved to Provo, Utah, to attend school, and there met drummer and vocalist Elaine Bradley and bassist Branden Campbell.
Rechristened as a quartet, Neon Trees found an immediate musical connection, churning out a string of inspired tunes that addressed longing, love lost and found and adolescent angst. "We're all about songs which relate the human experience," says Las Vegas native Campbell. "The emotion is very important to us. Our logo is a human heart with wings. We try to keep it real, but we're not afraid to dream either, work hard and admit we want success.
"We approach the songs from a classic perspective," adds Allen. "Even from the start, it was all about the music for us. We didn't even talk, just practice."
The band's synth-pop friendly sound caught the ear of the Killers, who invited Neon Trees to be the opener on select dates during their 2008 North American Tour. The band signed with Mercury, and their major-label debut, Habits, appeared in March 2010. The lead single "Animals" has been certified platinum, and the band has performed the song on a number of late night talk shows, including The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and Conan. "1983" and "Your Surrender" were the second and third singles, respectively, both catchy, danceable tracks. Neon Trees are currently on tour with Duran Duran.
Here the band talk about coming together, writing songs, making videos, performing in Ohio, Michael Jackson's jacket, Tammi Terrell's dress, John Fogerty's guitar and Elvis Presley's car.
Along with Microsoft's Zune Marketplace on PC and XBox Live, the only place you'll be able to see these videos is right here each week on rockhall.com. Stay tuned for next week's Five Minutes with Fame with 3OH!3.

Thanks for the replies. I decided that the headspace was probably bad so I attempted to to fix it. Got it right on the first refit. :happy: now I'm not scared to field test it when the time comes.
As a side note, but somewhat related, when you guys mate barrel components to a virgin barrel what's the step by step you use? Seemed to me the best idea was to get the hs the way I wanted it, install the barrel pin and then pressing on everything. If I didn't do the pin I think it would shifted as I pressed the rsb, correct?

Gardening Articles: Flowers :: Bulbs
Those Bloomin' Holiday Gifts (page 2 of 3)
by Charlie Nardozzi
The best fertilizer for most flowering houseplants is a timed-release one that supplies nutrients to the plant every time you water. Complete fertilizers for houseplants work well; apply fertilizer, twice monthly, spring and summer. Once a month, flush the pots for a few minutes until water drains from the holes to remove any built-up fertilizer salts.
Many flowering houseplant species are accustomed to high year-round humidity. Natural humidity levels in spring, summer, and fall are adequate in most regions except desert areas. However, plants require more moisture in winter, when heated indoor air dries out. Humidity levels should be at least 40 percent. Run a humidifier near the plants, or group the plants together in a draft-free room on a 2-inch layer of pebbles in a basin of water. The water should not touch the pots. The closely spaced plants and the evaporating water help keep the humidity high. Misting plants provides only temporary moisture and doesn't significantly alter the overall humidity levels.
If you move plants outdoors in summer, carefully check them for insects such as mealybugs and aphids when you bring them indoors in fall. Control pests with insecticidal soap or horticultural oil.

from Never the Same: Coming to Terms with the Death of a Parent
by Donna Schuurman
One interesting aspect that the Harvard Child Bereavement Study looked at was how accurately the parent perceived how the child was doing. In situations where the child's perception and the parent's perception were in synch, the child felt more understood and validated, even if both saw the child as having difficulties. If the parent's perception and the child's perception were at odds, the child tended to have more anxiety and other problems.
In my experience with families at The Dougy Center, it's not at all unusual for the children and their parents to misperceive each other. This may happen when parents don't tell the children the truth, and the children either intuit that they're being lied to or know the truth from others. A telling example is nine-year-old Samuel, whose father died of suicide in his car by inhaling the exhaust fumes. In a well-intentioned attempt to protect Samuel from this harsh reality, his mother told him his father had died in a car accident. Samuel knew from other children, as well as from overheard conversations among adults, that his father had killed himself. In one of his groups, he shared with the other children that his father had died by suicide, but asked them not to tell his mother. "She thinks he was in a car accident," he explained to them.
Often parents cannot accurately assess how their children are doing because they are understandably absorbed in their own grief and doing all they can just to get up each morning. It's also common that the family members "protect" each other by not bringing up difficult thoughts or feelings, sometimes because they simply don't know how, or when they do, a parent withdraws, cries, or reacts in a way the child finds uncomfortable.
When your parent died, did you feel that your surviving parent understood how you were doing? If so, you had a little added boost over those children who did not feel understood by their surviving parent. In the Harvard study, parents who reported greater depression, and who had experienced the sudden, unexpected death of their spouse, tended to be less accurate in perceiving how their children were fairing. Some of the consequences of feeling understood by the surviving parent among the population studied were less anxiety and greater trust in one's own feelings, resulting in a stronger sense of internal control. If you have the sense that your parent did not understand you, you may have carried more anxiety, less trust in your own feelings, and a greater sense that events happen to you rather than you having control over them.
*Donna Schuurman is the Executive Director of The Dougy Center, a children's grief support program in Portland, Oregon and the source of excellent resources on grief and loss.
