Al Capone is America's best-known gangster and the single greatest symbol of the collapse of law and order in the United States during the 1920s Prohibition era. Capone had a leading role in the illegal activities that lent Chicago its reputation as a lawless city.
His operations included activities in Wisconsin and your mission is to first find the location of his bootlegging activities. Here is an excerpt from a local historical publication about his hideout, which is still standing:
The house is a nice orange two-story brick building with churchlike windows and a backyard flower garden. In the late 1920s, a whiskey still, operated by the most feared racketeer in Chicagos history, was in operation here.
At that time, the area was a farm community of a few thousand people with no police department. Al Scarface Capone sent his cronies to the area to establish a hideout and illegal distillery. Thick woods concealed the house from view and isolated it from neighboring farms. Geese were kept to give the alarm when anyone approached, for they were excellent watchdogs.
Capone used this hideout as a stopover point between Chicago, Illinois and Minocqua, Wisconsin, where he did a tremendous amount of gambling, recalled a former resident of the house. A guard was posted 24 hours a day on a 40-foot lookout tower atop the house to spot federal agents. Upstairs in one of the rooms, distinctive for its terrazzo floor, was a $40,000 whiskey still. Pipelines carrying fuel oil led to the room and fed the burners of the still.
Shipping to and from Chicago went off like clockwork. On Tuesdays, truckloads of sugar, followed by large sedans loaded with four or five mobsters, came to this location. A day or so later the trucks were loaded with whiskey and made the return trip to Chicago, servicing speakeasies along the route. Capones thugs closed off the local road to other traffic at that time and camouflaged the trucks with trees and greens to prevent detections by federal agents.
The house was raided in the closing days of prohibition, and the closest neighbor recalled hearing the clatter and banging as the federal agents smashed the still.
One of Capones trucks is still in the area and your mission is to find it! First locate Al Capones hideout and note the address number: ______________
After locating his house, go to the public place that is .25 miles to the north (not necessarily taking a direct route). Near the midpoint of the area, you will see an old sign buried in the treeline. Note the 1st, 8th, 9th, and 13th letters on the second row of the sign: ___ ___ ___ ___. Go to this side of the most noticeable feature in the area and walk on a short plank. Oh no! It seems Capone still has some of his alarmists in the area use some caution! Take 145-150 paces along a path. Stop. (A bit farther down the path you will see a large stump on the right side of the path.)
Take a bearing of [first 3 digits of address 16] _____ degrees. Take 25-30 paces along this bearing to reach a tree(now stump) with fungi, passing the root side of a fallen tree on your left along the way.
Next take a bearing of 134 degrees and take 34 paces to reach a tree with two trunks. Youre closing in on the bootleggers stash!
Take a bearing of: 1st digit of address, 3rd digit of address, 5th digit of address ____ ___ ___. Take the number of paces that is the legal drinking age in Wisconsin ( ___ ) and youll find the goods in the hollow upright tree. Keep a sharp eye out for the mobsters thugs and federal agents as you raid the contents. Carefully conceal everything before you leave so theyll never be able to track down this last remnant of Capones lucrative business.

Checking whether your 4.0L Ford Explorer (4.0L Ranger, 4.0L Aerostar, or 4.0L Mountaineer) has a blown head gasket can be done with one of four different tests and in this article I'll show you how to do them and how to interpret the results you'll obtain from them.
To get you where you need to be, in this article, here are its contents at a quick glance:
You can find this tutorial in Spanish here: Cómo Probar el Empaque de la Cabeza (Ford 4.0L) (at: autotecnico-online.com).
To successfully accomplish the tests in this article, I suggest you follow these tips:
TIP 1: Read the entire article first. The first two tests can be done in under 10 minutes, if you know what you're looking and testing for.
TIP 2: You'll need an engine compression tester for HEAD GASKET TEST 3.
TIP 3: You'll be working around a cranking engine as you perform HEAD GASKET TEST 2 and HEAD GASKET TEST 3, so be careful and take all necessary safety precautions.
The most common cause of a blown head gasket is that the engine overheated because: 1) Fan clutch or fan motor is not working, 2) All of the coolant leaked out of the engine and you kept driving it this way. 3) Thermostat went BAD and is stuck closed and the coolant could not circulate. The most common symptoms a blown head gasket are:
A blown head gasket is the result of the engine overheating and usually, one of the tell tale signs is coolant mixing with the engine oil. This first test will confirm whether this has happened or not. This is the test:
Open the hood and pull out the engine's oil dipstick.
Now, look at the engine oil that's sticking to the dipstick. It will be one of two colors:
1.) Either the engine oil will be a creamy tan/off white color and as thick as syrup Or...
2.) The engine oil is a normal color and viscosity.
This is what the color of the engine oil means:
CASE 1: The color of the oil is a tan/off white color., this is bad news and indicates that your 4.0L Explorer (or Ranger, Aerostar, Mountaineer) overheating to the point the one (or both) of the head gaskets burned.
CASE 2: The color of the engine oil is normal, So far so good, but this result doesn't really confirm that the head gaskets are OK. You'll need to do the other two tests to further confirm a BAD head gasket or exonerate the head gasket. Go to TEST 2: Combustion Gases Shooting Out of the Radiator.
Here's why: Most of the time when the vehicle overheats and one of the head gaskets burns... it will let coolant into the crankcase... but not always. Thankfully, there are several more tests that can be done to confirm that the head gasket is blown or exonerate it as the cause of the issue. If in your case this test was inconclusive, the next test is to see if the engine's compression/ combustion gases are escaping thru' the radiator.

OK, I'm taking credit for this one: "The Tenordetto"
(Inside Joke: as most of you know, Howard refers to the fact that I came up with the name 'Vinodetto' for Dave Miner's guitars….I'll give him his due for this one!)
Per Howard Alden: A couple of shots from a recording session yesterday with Jeanne [Gies] & myself, a new duo recording under Steve Miller's auspices. I've played the tenor guitar on two tunes so far – at BiCoastal Recording in Ossining, NY.

A local political watchdog group has filed an ethics complaint against Rep. Steve King, R-Grand Junction, concerning travel expenses that may have been reimbursed twice, once by his campaign and once by the state.
"We will cooperate fully with the ethics commission in getting them the information needed to straighten this out," said King. "I will defend myself to the best of my ability and I think that the documentation that we have provided and will provide is a fair and accurate representation of my expenses."
The Denver-based, non-profit Colorado Ethics Watch filed a complaint on Jan. 13 with Speaker of the House Terrance Carroll, D-Denver, after receiving a tip from the Junction Dailyblog.
Luis Toro, director of Ethics Watch, said King was potentially "double dipping" — that is, charging his campaign fund and state for the same expense. Toro said state legislators may request mileage reimbursements from the state, but they must confirm that they did not receive reimbursement for the same expense elsewhere.
According to Colorado Ethics Watch, King's campaign finance reports show his campaign reimbursed him $1,408.33 for expenses including gasoline, vehicle repair and vehicle rental. The same report shows that King requested and received $5,018.60 in gas and rental car expenses from the state for expenses paid during the same time period.
King said he believes the charges are politically motivated. King is running for state Senate this year for a seat being vacated by Minority Leader Josh Penry, R-Grand Junction.
"My feeling is that the timing is certainly questionable," said King. "I'm confident at the end of the day that this will be looked at as just a partisan attempt to assassinate my character."
Toro said that King's response is disappointing.
"It tells us nothing about the underlying facts which are the subject of the complaint," said Toro. "I would have been a lot happier if he had said something like, 'this isn't true.'"
According to Toro, Colorado Ethics Watch reviewed the finance reports of all 100 legislators, and only had issue with one. He said his organization has no intention to assassinate King's character.
Toro said that there could be an innocent explanation to the charges. He said if King actually used two cars, then it is perfectly legal to charge one car's expense to the state and the other to his campaign.
However, according to Toro, the campaign finance report said King's personal vehicle was in the shop during the time period, suggesting King did not use two cars.
According to a press release from Colorado Ethics Watch, under the Rules of the Colorado House of Representatives, the speaker and the Majority and Minority Leaders must determine if the ethics complaint warrants an investigation. If they conclude it does, an ethics committee will be appointed to investigate. The committee may dismiss the complaint or recommend sanctions to the House.
Legally Speaker Carroll cannot comment on an ethics investigation and House Democrat Communications Director, Katie Reinisch, could not confirm or deny that investigations have begun, but "House Ethics Committee" has been posted on the House calendar for Wednesday, Feb. 3 at 8 a.m.
When talking to The Colorado Statesman, King implied that an ethics committee has begun looking into the matter.
"We are collecting all the documents that the ethics commission has asked for," said King.

'Superman' and Other New Blu-Ray Releases
As the summer's first franchise reboot, "X-Men: First Class" failed to fully invigorate the movie season. But on home video, studios are redoubling their efforts to find way to breathe new life into older film series, starting with high-definition upgrades, and continuing with new extras and extended editions. Take a look at our choices for this week's top releases on Blu-ray.
Billy Madison & Happy Gilmore (Universal Studios Home Entertainment) – Adam Sandler's first significant forays into film acting arrive on Blu-ray in the same week, and replicate the content of previous releases while enhancing the viewing experience with upgraded sound and picture quality. In both cases, the discs do a great job of protecting the vivid color quality and clarity of the straightforwardly-captured images, and offer modest but satisfying stereoscopic soundtracks. Meanwhile, the respective extras are replicated from previous SD releases, so there aren't any new insights to be gleaned from either film. In which case, one's decision to buy these Blu-rays will be based on how determined Sandler fans are to protect the presentation of these films.
Blue Crush 2 (Universal Studios Home Entertainment) – Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, Universal offers a straight-to-DVD sequel to their girl-surfing flick, which unfortunately offers too little to hang with in its two hour-plus running time. Even with three comely beach bunnies at the center of its spectacularly clichéd story, the most interesting thing to watch is the surfing footage, which thankfully is photographed beautifully by director Mike Elliott. But he also feels compelled to explain to viewers what "deleted scenes" are, and it's that sort of stultifying obviousness that plagues far too much of the storytelling and extra content as a whole. Overall there are better outlets for adolescent appetites for girls in bikinis, as well as superlative surfing footage. As a sequel, "Blue Crush 2" swims with the fishes.
Rubber (Magnolia) – Quentin Dupieux's movie comes to home video just in time to show up summer movies, particularly with its oddball but brilliant acknowledgment that most things happen on the silver screen purely because of whim. The movie looks gorgeous despite its relatively low-budget origins, and Dupieux's work on the score (a collaboration with Justice member Gaspard Auge) is well-represented with a solid if not wildly dynamic stereo mix. Meanwhile, interviews with Dupieux and members of his cast offer more specific insights into the design of the filmmaker's deliberately "arbitrary" universe. A
The Stunt Man (Severin Films) – It admittedly took me a handful of viewings to fully appreciate what this movie is doing, but Richard Rush's drama about a director putting a stunt man through some pretty tough paces ranks among the most interesting and thought-provoking meta-movies. The transfer is terrific, as is the audio presentation, which cleanly renders the cacophonic action as well as Dominic Frontiere's circuslike score. In addition to a feature-length documentary of the making of the film (which previously appeared on a 2002 DVD), there are several new extras, including a portrait of the grindhouse-circuit studio American International Pictures, interviews with members of the cast and crew, and a q&a at Los Angeles' New Beverly Cinema from December 2010 with Rush and stars Barbara Hershey and Steve Railsback.
Superman Anthology (Warner Home Video) – Making audiences believe a man can fly was Richard Donner's challenge when he undertook the original "Superman" in 1978, but some 20-plus years later the only question that remains is "how good can high-definition make that man flying look?" The answer is surprisingly satisfying, thanks to transfers which, although some of them have existed for several years, do a wonderful job of creating a vivid and authentic comic book world on screen. (This set marks the debut of the "Superman" theatrical cut as well as "Superman III" and "IV" on Blu-ray, and all look terrific regardless how bad the latter two are as movies.) At the same time, this set carries over all of the extra materials of the 2006 SD set, which means that it comes almost overstuffed with documentaries, featurettes, interviews, commentaries, cartoons, and much more.
True Grit (Paramount Home Entertainment) – If you need a reference-quality disc to choose from home video's recent releases, look no further than the Coen brothers' "True Grit," which showcases and preserves the cinematography of their longtime collaborator Roger Deakins. The film offers some of Deakins' best work of his career, and this disc beautifully captures that. Meanwhile, the audio presentation is equal to its video presentation, but the extras are woefully underwhelming – at least in comparison to the enormity of its success and artistic acclaim – which suggests that Paramount may indeed produce a second edition some time in the future which features more expansive extras.

Product Description
As Rome strove to conquer the Italian peninsula in the Fourth and Third Centuries BCE, her most formidable opponents were not the advanced Etruscans, nor the crafty Greeks. Instead, it was the barbarian tribes that nearly overcame Rome: the savage warriors of Cisalpine Gaul and the fierce hill tribe fighters of Samnium.
The nimble mountain warriors of Samnium taught the Romans the advantages of a more flexible formation over the ponderous phalanx. After suffering a sharp reverse at Lautulae, 315, the Romans recovered and dealt a counterstroke at Tifernum, 297 in two battles representative of the many fierce fights between these implacable foes. The political genius of the Samnite general Gellius Aegnatius welded former foes Samnium, Etruria, Umbria and the Gauls into a grand coalition that nearly broke the power of Republican Rome at Sentinum, 295. This battle, more than any other, decided the fate of Italy.
Even as the Samnites and their peninsular allies were subdued, the Gauls arose to carry on the struggle. Calling on reinforcements from across the Alps, the Gauls invaded Italy in 225 and only by a stroke of fortune was this army trapped between two Roman consular armies at Telamon. The battle that followed was one of the most unusual in all of military history, with the Gauls fighting in desperation in two opposite directions, as Roman armies closed in from north and south. Finally, just after Rome had withstood Hannibal's devastating invasion, Hamilcar, a die-hard Carthaginian officer, raised the Gallic tribes for one last great battle at Cremona, 200. In the end, Rome emerged victorious and dominated the Italian peninsula from the straits of Messina to the Alps.
The Battles:
- LAUTULAE, 315. The Romans under the Master of Horse Quintus Aulius versus The Samnites under the Meddix Tuticus Caius Pontius
- TIFERNUM, 297. The Romans under the Consul Quintus Fabius Rullianus versus The Samnites under the Meddix Tuticus Gellius Aegnatius
- SENTINUM, 295.The Romans under the Consuls Quintus Fabius Rullianus & Publius Decius Mus versus The Samnites and Senones Gauls under Gellius Aegnatius
- TELAMON, 225. The Romans under the Consuls Gaius Atilius Regulus and Lucius Aemilius Papus versus The Gaesatea, Insubres, Boii and Taurini Gauls under Kings Concolitanus and Aneroestes
- CREMONA, 200. The Romans under the Praetor Furius Purporeo versus The Boii, Insubres and Cenomani Gauls and the Ligurians under Hamilcar of Carthage

By Joe Lee, ON★PATROL Staff Writer
USO Metropolitan Washington celebrated the opening of the new Honor Guard Lounge inside the Fort Myer Community Center yesterday with a well-attended ribbon cutting ceremony.
Event speakers included Army Major General Karl Horst, commanding general of Joint Force Headquarters—National Capitol Region and The U.S Military District of Washington; Army Colonel Carl Coffman, joint base commander; and Elaine Rogers, president of USO of Metropolitan D.C..
The lounge is specifically dedicated to the soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines who serve on the honor guard—charged with burying our fallen warriors at Arlington National Cemetary.
There isn't a more deserving unit, Coffman said, as he recalled waking up every morning to a caisson rolling past his home during his first few days as base commander.
"It was a sobering reminder for me," said Coffman. "Burying our heroes is the most important thing the honor guard does, and they truly are the standard to which we are all held."
[caption id="attachment_3969" align="aligncenter" width="500" caption="A group of Air Force and Army honor guard members relax in the movie lounge. (USO photo by Joe Lee)"][/caption]
The state-of-the-art lounge boasts a gaming center, a 52-inch plasma TV, five computer workstations, a movie theatre and even a real theatre-style popcorn popper.
"The honor guard delivers first class service to our fallen heroes, and they deserve a first class facility to serve them—I hope this lounge meets and exceeds those expectations," said Rogers.
Special thanks were given to major contributors Harkins Builders and Quest Software who helped make this $250,000 lounge a reality.
"It's no surprise that the lounge far exceeds our expectations," said Coffman. "We never had any doubt."

First came the better-than-expected monthly ADP report, which showed private-sector hiring jumped by an unexpectedly strong pace last month. Then came a relatively upbeat reading on weekly jobless claims, which fell by 14,000 to 374,000, the lowest level in more than a month.
Additionally a report from consulting firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas showed planned layoffs among U.S. employers fell to a 13-month low.
Not too shabby ahead of Friday's grand daddy of economic data — the government's monthly jobs report.
Nevertheless, investors and economists aren't wearing rose-colored glasses this morning.
The Dow is down more than 70 points, led lower by J.P. Morgan's 4.5% drop and Bank of America's 2.5% decline. Intel and Cisco are also slipping, while McDonald's, Home Depot and Wal-Mart are the only blue-chip components in positive territory. The S&P 500 is off 0.7% and the Nasdaq Comp is down 0.5%.
The pundits on CNBC are touting the "good news is bad news" mentality for why stocks are down this morning. That is, good economic news may diminish the chances of the Fed rolling the dice on QE3.
Perhaps a more realistic explanation is market watchers are finally catching on to the notion that ADP isn't exactly the best predictor of the government's upcoming nonfarm payroll report. This time last month ADP said 133,000 jobs were added in May. A few days later, the government said employers added only 69,000.
"Given the poor historical performance of this indicator in correctly predicting the performance of the official payrolls report, we see no reason to revise our current forecast for a 100,000 rise in payrolls," Millan Mulraine of TD Securities said in a note.
TD Securities isn't alone. Thus far, it doesn't look like forecasters are changing their calls for Friday's jobs report. The current bet is for a gain of 95,000 jobs, according to economists polled by Dow Jones Newswires.
"We are maintaining our calls for 100K nonfarm payrolls/110K private payrolls after today's ADP report, but acknowledge the upside risk from the better than expected outcome," says Jonathan Basile of Credit Suisse.
It's also worth noting the better-than-expected jobless claims figures won't shine in tomorrow's jobs report. The Labor Department's survey period was conducted a few weeks ago, when jobless claims were up at 392,000. And, as economists at Nomura Securities point out, consumer confidence measures of labor market conditions were "decidedly downbeat" in June.
"The largest unknown is whether the sour attitude toward the labor market on the part of households is in reaction to the past few months of weaker job gains, or whether it is suggestive of further weakening in June," says Ellen Zenter, an economist at Nomura.

text: Hi I'm looking for a very special Christmas stocking pattern from the early 50's. My childhood Christmas stocking is a great pattern that my mother made for all the kids in the family. Sadly the pattern was lost and I have not been able to recreate or find a replacement pattern. The stocking body is green with a cream heel and toe and the face of Santa on the side with the owners name knit into the top of the stocking as a cream band. Santa's face is spectacular - with flesh color cheeks, black eyes, red lips and white angora for the beard, eyebrows and pompom on Santa's red hat. Now that I am a grandmother I would like to make the same keepsake stocking for my grandchildren. If anyone has such a pattern or knows where i can locate one I would appreciate the help.

#553 closed defect (fixed)
Adding fields is non-trivial due to lack of database data type generic mapping
|Reported by:

|Triage Stage:
|Has patch:
|Needs documentation:
|Needs tests:
|Patch needs improvement:
|Easy pickings:
I added a field named GenericImageField inheriting from field.ImageField and here is the error I got when trying to install the app which has a model using that field:
File "d:\django\django\core\management.py", line 209, in get_sql_all return get_sql_create(mod) + get_sql_initial_data(mod) File "d:\django\django\core\management.py", line 68, in get_sql_create col_type = db.DATA_TYPES[data_type] KeyError: 'GenericImageField'
So in order for this to work I would have to modify db.DATA_TYPES for the chosen DB. This is very non-nice. A suggested and simple solution is adding a function to the Field class which would return the 'internal data type':
class Field: def internal_data_type(self): return self.__class__.__name__
so that one could override it in the new field and set it to return the superclasses name as the internal data type. This would also let you narrow the amount of data types. Perhaps using .class.name to find out the data type should be skipped alltogether and an array of standard database-independent data types should be introduced. Those datatypes could be then associated to database-dependent data types in the database driver. java.sql is a good example here, and using class names as names for those 'generic data types' as it is done now is not very nice.

"It's always been an ambition of mine to coach in the NRL and the chance to work with the NRL champions is something that doesn't come along very often," he said.
"I have a great relationship with Trent Robinson and am looking forward to working alongside him and the rest of the Roosters staff in what is a very exciting chapter in my career."
The NRL begins in early March while England's next matches will be as part of the 2014 Four Nations tournament in Australia and New Zealand in October.

Our new white paper highlights operational risk
The regulatory landscape is changing. Basel III in particular will have a significant impact on all aspects of the banking sector. We are already seeing significant increases in both the quality and quantity of capital that is required to be set against the wider risks of running a business but the wider regulatory policies also seek to improve the underlying risk-management capabilities of banks, whether looking at Legal, Operational, Market, Regulatory or Credit Risks.
While supervisors everywhere are increasingly sensitive to the balance which has to be achieved between cost pressures and ensuring that banks take operational risk seriously, there is a major focus on avoiding the risk of "black swan" or "fat tail" events which could further jeopardize financial stability. Compliance and risk management are no longer simply a question of aligning with best practice through a team located somewhere in the institution. Risk appetite should be established and set at Board level, taking into account shareholder and regulators expectations. The concept of "enterprise risk management" is now well established.
This paper highlights some less considered elements of operational risk and demonstrates how a different approach can lead to real benefits to the business.

Via Campaign Brief a new viral campaign for Virgin Loans launched in Australia starring Mr Virgin himself (aka Richard Branson). The video is ment to be quite sexy, but it doesn't really have that "something" to become viral. Probably the only reason why people will pass it is to tell friends "look how crazy Branson is". Is this enough? Is this good for Virgin as a brand? Probably in both cases the answer is yes. But I find the video rather drab.

Honda and City of Los Angeles Celebrate Two Year Anniversary of Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicles
City of Los Angeles was first customer for Honda FCX
|TORRANCE, U.S.A., December 2, 2004 - American Honda today announced the second anniversary of its relationship with the city of Los Angeles as the first customer for its hydrogen-powered fuel cell vehicle, the Honda FCX, the world's most advanced fuel cell vehicle. Honda delivered the first of its five FCX fuel cell vehicles to Mayor Jim Hahn back in December of 2002. In the intervening years, the city has operated five hydrogen-powered fuel cell vehicles on a regular basis accumulating more than 25,000 miles as part of their alternative fuel fleet.
"Los Angeles is pleased to partner with Honda to lease these innovative fuel cell vehicles, which utilize emerging technology to significantly reduce energy use, clean our air and promote renewable energy sources," said city of Los Angeles Mayor Jim Hahn. "Fuel cells have the potential to revolutionize the transportation and energy industries, and we are proud that Los Angeles will play a major role in helping to develop the next generation of clean, energy efficient vehicles."
"I would like to commend the Mayor and the city of Los Angeles for their vision and for taking this bold step toward a more sustainable energy future, and also thank them for becoming a customer of Honda fuel cell technology," said Gunnar Lindstrom, senior manager of American Honda Alternative Fuels.
Today, Honda has twelve fuel cell vehicles with customers including the State of New York, the city of San Francisco, California's South Coast Air Quality Management District, the city of Chula Vista and the city of Los Angeles.

By now most of you are familiar with the acronym "CFL," or compact fluorescent light; the "curly" bulb that we've been putting in our homes to replace the old, energy-inefficient, incandescent light bulbs that have been around since Edison's day.
However, many of you may not have heard of HOT5s (high output T5 fluorescent lights) or LEDs (light emitting diodes) that are being used to grow plants indoor year round by more horticulturists and hobby gardeners.
Fluorescent HOT5s, with names like "Sun Blaze," BadBoy" and "Pioneer" and LED lighting systems like the "GrowUFO" and "Penetrator" revolutionized indoor gardening in the last couple of years and are developing into lighting systems that will have the ability to grow plants from seedling to maturity at a much lower cost than the widely accepted high intensity discharge lights.
To date fluorescents and LEDs are the most energy efficient grow lights available, so they produce much more light for the amount of power consumed while emitting very little heat.
Fluorescent lamps such as the CFLs are perfect for starts and seedlings. CFLs are available in many energy efficient wattages from 13 watts to 300 watts with a CFL lighting system costing from under $10 up to $175.
They are generally a poor light source for production growth and flowering because of their low lumen or light output, although they are used in some instances for small scale systems with low growing plants, i.e.: lettuce, basils, etc.
To be most effective, CFL lights need to be placed within a couple of inches directly over the plants and raised as the plants grow. They provide a full spectrum of light for your seedlings or cuttings, without fear of burning them when they are at this fragile stage. Remember, as you raise your lighting, your light intensity drastically drops. When you double the distance between your light and your plants, you cut the light intensity by four times.
A two foot by four foot area can support up to 400 seedlings and young plants under a CFL. Even though fluorescents are adequate for the full life-cycle of a plant, most indoor gardeners use them for an initial propagation area, and then move the plants to another area as they begin to mature. Plant growth will not be as rapid as under HID lighting due to the lower light levels. However, the latest high output T5 fluorescent products are great for full-term plant growth, especially with a mixed spectrum of light bulbs.
The latest HOT5 fluorescent products are great for full-term plant growth. They come in 24 and 54 watt sizes and come in 2 foot, 3 foot and 4 foot lengths with the number of bulb configurations being one, two, four, six, eight, twelve and sixteen bulbs. A HOT5 lighting system costs from $30 to $500.
The HOT5s are also capable of being mounted horizontally or vertically to provide supplemental plant lighting. They feature a very low profile and very low heat that allows them to be placed close to the plant tops without heat stressing the plant.
The ability to place the light very close to the plant tops lets light penetrate much further into the plants foliage for more flower and fruit production. Using a mixed spectrum of grow and bloom bulbs significantly increases plant flowering and production.
LED lights work by emitting light in a specified color wavelength, especially reds and blues that are necessary for plant photosynthesis. LEDs are naturally cool light that efficiently converts electricity to light.
General consensus is that LEDs do work, but the overall intensity of light is not intense enough to grow tall plants due to the shallow light penetration. Most LED lights have to work in conjunction with HOT5s or lower power HID lights to be effective.
The latest LED products have expanded to larger, dense matrix panels of highly efficient lights to deliver the depth penetration that plants need.
This advancement provides more intense light, producing tall and healthy plants. The efficiency of the LED claims are that a 90 watt GrowUFO replaces a 400 watt HID light in intensity as well as coverage area.
Similarly, a 300 watt LED covers 50 square feet and emits light intensity equivalent to a 1000 watt HID. The cost of LEDs is a drawback; the 90 watt GrowUFO can set you back up to $350 with other panels costing considerably more.

Sometimes I wonder where all my time does go and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to calculate the number of books I've read or clock the hours of PS2 I've been playing. In all seriousness, it is a hindrance that I'm not organized enough to be able to account for how my free time was spent in the month of June. If I had to venture a guess I'd say the vast majority of the time I was reading. Not the productive type of reading that I do while on the exercise bike at the gym, though. No, it was the "I'm waking up at 6am so that I can stay in bed and read for 3 hours before going to work" kind of reading. Relaxing? Yes, and maybe even a bit necessary to some extent with all of the job stress I've been feeling, but doing it four out of the five weekdays (and who knows how much on the weekends) just seems excessive.
I thought things would get easier as the weather got warmer but I feel like the month has passed me by with little to show for it. So perhaps I can think of June as the month my writing-brain took a vacation and allowed me to just enjoy life for a bit. July, I'm hoping, will be very different.

People usually think of writers as people who can sit 6 hours a day in front of a typewriter (okay, computer will do) and write non-stop.ReplyDelete
In fact, most writers experience times where they just can't produce anything. Inspiration for writing good pieces come from life experiences, places travelled, daily life etc. So gotta store up before writing !
I was actually surprised to see you were a writer. From our little "argument" on Princesse's blog, I would have though you had a political blog or similar. Quite a good surprise though, cause I like the way you play with words.
I noticed you have three blogs : how does it work ? Which one is which ? Just curious...;)
6 hours at a time at the keyboard (in whatever form) is a tough feat but one I will someday have to perform if I ever want to write books as more than just a dream. Inspiration is scarce (at best) unless you're writing a sequel (which I, currently, am, so thank God for that).ReplyDelete
I don't necessarily consider myself "political"; I'm just really opinionated and I've had a fairly diverse group of friends in the past year to educate me on the things I had no idea about while I was living in Utah.
Here's the explanation of the 3 blogs:
Initial Draft- My blog on writing. Sometimes I write short works that are associated with the Daily Dime writing challenge, other times I just write tips or nonsense having to do with writing.
Opinionated Spiritual Commentary- A conglomeration of thoughts, feelings, speculation, and whatnot having to do with religion as I find it. I have a lot of questions, not many answers.
Exes for Eyes- A story that I started just as practice. I didn't think it was going anywhere so I considered completely starting a new thread so it's kind of in stasis right now.
I actually thought about starting a 4th blog about my adventures in exercise but I haven't quite got there yet.
awww it makes me so happy to see you two getting on! :-pReplyDelete
anyway mister Newton, come get your blogging award from my blog!
Thanks for the explanation about your blog ! I read quite a lot from Exes for Eyes and I like the way you qrite. You're obviously very confortable with words and I like your punctuation.ReplyDelete
Okay, I know it's weird to say that : I like your punctuation. It's just that in French, punctuation is very important - sentences tend to be longer and more complex than in English, were people are more direct. So the way you write reminds me of the way French write. Which is quite nice actually.
I hope to pick back up on Exes for Eyes fairly soon. I'm not sure if I'm going to start a new story or struggle with the one I've started (I have quite a reputation for starting stories and not finishing them after a handful of chapters... hence why my first completed novel is such a miracle). I appreciate you and Princesse reading it.ReplyDelete
It is kind of odd to like someone's punctuation. I tend to be very long-winded (it's the writer in me) so I guess it's good to know that at least part of it is being well-received.
I may post a new entry on this one now just to state that I'm proud to write "like the French."
I'm always happy to hear from you, even if you disagree. Leave a comment or shoot me an email (firstname.lastname@example.com), whichever you prefer. Thanks for stopping by.

As much as I love this fragrance I was disappointed when I received this because the shimmer is not there. I really liked the shimmer and it is in the body wash so why not in the lotion where it counts more. I don't really care about the shimmer in body wash but I wanted it in the lotion. It was not enough to return it but I gave it 4 stars for that reason but I still love the fragrance a lot because it is just a very unique fragrance unlike anything I have ever had. When this was brought back which I am glad you did as a classic I thought the shimmer would be there but that won't stop me from re-purchasing this.
it seems changed
I love the moonflower fragrance and I'm glad it's available again. However....it doesn't seem as strong this time and I couldn't find it available in shimmer :(
Love this fragrance!!!
Just found this fragrance and fell completely in love. Wish it came in more items such as candles and room diffusers.
So glad that Moonflower's back!
I was thrilled to get an email that Moonflower's back and that Thymes listened to its customer base and returned it to their product line. It is a wonderful fragrance and it would have been sorely missed!Thank you!!

News :: Merchant thanks those who helped Leukemia & Lymphoma Society car wash
· 9:56am June 16th, 2014
Annette Merchant of Vinton is running a half Marathon for the Lymphoma and Leukemia Society in Des Moines this fall, and invited area residents to a fund-raising car wash on Saturday, June 14.
The event raised more than $700 for the Society.
Merchant thanked her family for helping and all of the people who came to donate, share some food and have their cars washed for her cause.
The car wash took place place at Roosters Detailing, 410 H Avenue, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. this Saturday, June 14. Hot dogs and lemonade will be offered at the free-will offering event.
All proceeds will go toward the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
Annette has several friends facing leukemia or lymphoma, and has been on the Blood Marrow Donor Registry for many years. She had raised $1,200 of the $1,500 minimum needed; the success of Saturday's event means she has now completed her fund-raising.
"This is a great place to make a difference," says Annette, who is running alone in this event. She ran the half-marathon at George Wyth State Park near Waterloo last year, and plans to participate in that event again this autumn.
"I will be running two half-marathons within one month," she says.
To donate, contact Annette at 319-202-8461, or contact her via Facebook.

Harris Teeter attended the North Carolina State Fair's Junior Livestock Auction on Saturday, October 19th and placed the winning bids on the Grand Champion steer, lamb, barrow, and turkey, the Reserve Grand Champion barrow, and the NC born and bred Grand Champion lamb. The $48,000 spent goes directly to the youth who raised the purchased animals; Harris Teeter will also sell the protein from the livestock auction and donate the dollars to Second Harvest Food Bank of Central & Eastern NC.
Harris Teeter has been a proud supporter of the sale of champions at the junior livestock expo for over a decade. "The money raised goes back to the children showing the animals, rewards them for their hard work and perseverance, and helps toward their future education," said Fred Morganthall, President of Harris Teeter.
The Grand Champion steer raised by Derek Jones of Barnardsville, NC brought $20,000 at the auction; the Grand Champion barrow shown by 3-year-old Travis Cox from Louisburg, NC brought in $7,000; the grand champion lamb raised by Alyson Moore from Selma, NC brought $5,000; the Grand Champion turkey shown by Evan Gunter of Asheboro, NC went for $4,000 at the auction; the NC born and bred Grand Champion lamb brought $6,000 for Melinda Staebner of Jonesville, NC; and Makensie Mohrfeld from Pink Hill, NC brought home $6,000 from the reserve champion barrow.
Harris Teeter is committed to helping eliminating hunger in the communities it serves. The protein from the livestock auction will be sold and the dollars will be donated to the Second Harvest Food Bank of Central & Eastern NC.

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. (AP) -- Four gun shows about an hour's drive from Newtown, Conn., have been canceled.
Organizers say they weren't appropriate just weeks after a gunman killed 20 first-graders and six adults at an elementary school in Newtown.
But gun advocates aren't backing down from their insistence on the right to keep and bear arms.
The City Council in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., is urging a group to cancel a show there.
Show organizer David Petronis says it's not fair that the shows and their organizers are seen as the brunt of the problem. But he says he understands the reaction.

We read with interest the report of the recent meta-analysis by Turpie and colleagues1 of data from 4 randomized, double-blind clinical trials in which patients undergoing major orthopedic surgery were randomized to receive fondaparinux sodium or enoxaparin sodium to prevent venous thromboembolism (VTE). The authors report that fondaparinux reduced the risk of VTE by approximately 50% but that it also increased the risk of major bleeding by 53%. They point out that the difference in bleeding events was accounted for mainly by an excess risk among fondaparinux-treated patients of major bleeding with a "bleeding index of 2 or more" (number of units of packed red blood cells or whole blood transfused plus prebleeding minus postbleeding hemoglobin [grams per deciliter] values). They suggest that this measure is not "clinically relevant" but provide no data to substantiate this claim.

Several other state legislatures have bills pending to force the turning over of federal lands to states, in some cases including national parks. What do you think about this?
A bill to force sale of federal lands to the state has failed in the Colorado Legislature, thanks in part to the Colorado chapter of ConservAmerica.
On a bipartisan vote, the House Education Committee turned the bill down, following testimony by ConservAmerica and other recreation, sportsmen, and conservation organizations against House Bill 1322.
The bill, as introduced, would have required the federal government to sell any lands in Colorado suitable for agricultural uses. National parks and monuments would have been exempted.
ConservAmerica testified: "We have pondered HB 1322 at length and just don't get it. There is no proven need for any change in management of Colorado's taxpayer and citizen-owned federal public lands. We see no violation of our state's sovereignty and there is minimal 'dictation' from Washington. All employees of the federal agencies actually live in their local communities here in Colorado. The National Environmental Policy Act, signed in 1969 by Republican President Richard Nixon, provides that all citizens can have input into management decisions affecting their federal public lands."
Bill sponsors had claimed the state is better suited to manage millions of acres of federal lands than the Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management. Sponsors said continued federal management violates Colorado's sovereignty, and land management decisions are dictated in Washington, DC.
The bill was amended in the House Education Committee to provide for the federal government to cede land for management by the State Land Board, which is constitutionally charged to raise money for public education by managing Colorado school trust lands.
Similar takeover or giveaway bills have been introduced in other Western states this year, and one passed in Utah. The vote in Colorado to "just say no" was bipartisan, as two Republicans joined six Democrats in voting HB 1322 down in committee.
Colorado ConservAmerica will watch for future silly bills like this one.
