In Scenes-Troughs photo ID 492, a photo of Rex Murfitt's trough by Todd Boland containing several Saxes. Does anyone have an idea what kind of Saxes they might be?
Photo in Image Gallery-Saxifrages
Had to search Wiki a bit to find the picture
but I think the yellow one in flower is one of the cultivars of Saxifraga x paulinae (such as 'Paula' or 'Franzii') which comes from the crossing of S. burseriana and S. ferdinandi-coburgi. And to the left of that - you might need to zoom in a bit - is a nice old-fashioned pink flowered hybrid, possibly S. x edithae 'Bridget'. Not enough to go on with theones at extreme left and right though.
Thanks, Malcolm! After reading your response I reached for your book for more info. Sadly, reading constitutes my sole experience with saxes so far, (except for seed from the SEEDEX I just sowed today). Unless the trough pictured is enormous, I was surprised to see how finely-textured the cushions were.
They appear to be planted in/on tufa. Do you suppose each was originally a single plant in a hole , or several plants that spread to join? And would the plant root in the holes in the tufa as it crept and so become many individual self-supporting plants?
Now it's time to go to the online catalogs and search for these Kabschia and marginata crosses to try in my faux tufa mounds! J
AS far as the trough is concerned I would estimate it to be around 30 in by 20 in so not enormous. And thinking about the pink-flowered sax again it could be a S. x kellereri if it is not S. x edithae. Either way it is one of those crosses first made by Sundermann before the First World War. Still can't get to ID the ones on extreme right (which may be two different plants - one on the tufa and one in the surround) or left but there are many which make big cushions of very small rosettes.
As fara s planting is concerned I would guess that all the plants started as single individuals - many will certainly make adventitious roots as they go rooting as the cushion gets larger if the cushion is a fairly dense one. What you can see tho' is that the pink-flowered one is not managing this - bigger rosettes and less dense cushion.
Good luck with hunting some more sax's down.
I have grown these sort of sax's from seed. I firm my seed mix firmly in the pot (with the bottom of another pot) then sprinkle a little bit of silver sand (the very fine sand they sell for aquaria - which is so fine it runs through your fingers - like in an old-fashioned glass egg-timer) across the surface and sow the sax seed on that. If the pot is going to go outside then I will then scatter a very thin layer of gravel on the surface but if I can am going to keep it under cover in the aline house then I will probably not put any gravel on it so I can see what is happening. You can always add gravel a piece at a time with tweezers once you have germination.
If the seed is fresh then it can germinate in about 10-14 days - if its from this year's seed exchange and you have sowed it already then hope that you might get some germination this spring.
The seed I received from the exchange is, I believe, more of the rosette-forming types rather than mats, except for S. bryoides. I still need to do more research,but I got oppositifolia, paniculata v brevifolia, and (disappointingly) three! silver mixes. Also S. caesia and arendsii. So I think I need to purchase plants.
Arrowhead Alpines has two x edithaes, an x landauri, cochlearis minor and paniculata minutifolia, all of which I believe might be appropriate for a large chunk of tufa, no?
I've been making hollow hypertufa-ish rocks - some simulating tufa - filled with growing medium, and I've experimented with direct-sowing seed into cracks in the rocks. I was thinking of trying the bryoides, but I read that it likes acidity and so might object to the concrete. Is it very particular, do you think? The rocks were soaked in mildly acidic water to neutralize them, but still...
I've never found S. bryoides that easy. Although it will germinate and do okay through the first year I find it difficult to keep through the winter. I find S. aspera which is from the same group easier.
The advantage of some of the others you've got is that you should get some germination and they will grow on and survive. Sax. oppositifolia can be very good from seed although I find that confining it in tufa is not to its taste - it seems better with a freer root run. S. paniculata brevifolia can be great. And the silver mixes can be irritating in that you may never have a name for what appears but you could get really nice things which will be adapted to your conditions. S. caesia can be grown from seed but definitely does need tufa to flourish at all - not usually easy. S. arendsii will be a hybrid mossy saxifrage - no more definite than that.
Just looked at Arrowheads list - the ones you mention will grow on tufa - you might want to brighten them up with one of the newer hybrids which Harvey Wrightman lists.
My hypertufa-ish rocks, however, are hollow, like a shell of tufa with growing medium filling, so theoretically (they're not old enough to have proved themselves) they should have the aesthetics and perfect drainage of tufa while also providing a welcoming substrate for roots.
Thanks for the Wrightman tip, he wasn't on my list of regular providers. Being in Canada, I wonder if I'd need special import certificates? Info is probably on his site, I'll go look.
Holy c--p!!! Now that's a trough "to die for". There are times I wish Tennessee wasn't so humid in summer. Thanks for sharing this great photo.
Malcolm, Wrightman's was one of the vendors at the EWSW, and without the shipping costs I enabled myself to buy three saxes, 'Jana', 'Cambridge Seedling', and S. sp. 'Betscho Pass Siberia', all in full bloom and each growing in its own chunk of tufa.
Now I don't know what to do with them! Bury them in the dappled afternoon shady sand bed? Maybe in a trough, or a pot? I'd like to let them outgrow their tufa chunks so I can eventually divide them, which I assume I can't do now because their roots are inextricably bound to the tufa. Or perhaps I shouldn't be waiting for division but should instead be thinking of taking cuttings after the blooms are gone.
I also wonder about hybridization. Would something as crude as using a cotton swab on a stick work? I'd like to try crossing the large white 'Siberia' with the small rose "Jana" and see what kind of results I get. Assuming they're even compatible; I have no information about their backgrounds.
I'm just excited to feel that this is a start on spring activities!
Sorry I've been too busy to get round to posting you an answer sooner.
I think I wouls start by growing them in a pot - maybe even putting all three in a larger pot - say 12" - but I would definitely take some cuttings after they have flowered. Then they will be at their most vigorous and cuttings should root in just a few weeks.
As far as cross-pollinating is concerned I take the stamen off one plant with a pair of very fine tweezers and then take that to the plant I want to pollinate - that way you make sure you get enough pollen on the stigmas. In all these cases there should be compatibility but the most likely to set good seed is the 'Betscho Pass' plant since that is species where the others are hybrids - in both cases the parentage is not really known. I would try in both directions but would expect more chance of seed setting on 'Betscho Pass' pollinated by 'Jana' than the other way round. 'Jana' probably derives from a Saxifraga x anglica hybrid but 'Cambridge Seedling' but again probably one of the parents is similar but then crossed with S. marginata although this is conjecture. 'Cambridge Seedling' has been around since at least 1971 but 'Jana' is much newer and originated in the Czech Republic.
If you do get seed then I sow the seed immediately the seed capsules start to open (perhaps 8 weeks) and often you will get immediate germination (say 10-14 days). It's great fun to get such an immediate result. Sometimes they will flower in their second year of you are lucky. Good luck.

Easy as one, two, three
By Erica Wayne 07/07/2011
Question: When does it pay to be No. 3?
Answer: When No. 1 is Puebla Tacos on North Lake Avenue, No. 2 is Puebla Tacos on East Villa Street and you have the same name, the same great food and the same relatively low prices. Puebla Tacos No. 3 on North Los Robles Avenue, is every bit as good as the original and its older sister.
The original Puebla's been open for longer than I can remember. Like a couple of other locals (Rick's Burritos on Walnut Street and Señor Fish in South Pasadena come to mind) it serves up wonderful Mexican food with absolutely no pretensions and lots and lots of flavor. (The ambiance, you might say, is in the cooking instead of the decor.) It's also open later than almost any other food provider in town!
When Puebla No. 2 first opened, it seemed almost indistinguishable from the original: limited seating and customers lined up at the counter to order from the menu plastered on the wall. On-street parking is a bit easier, since Villa is mostly residential.
Nevertheless, around 11:30 a.m., the wait seemed interminable, with people milling about waiting for their lunches to be prepared. It was always worth it, though — Puebla's shrimp burrito is, as far as I'm concerned, the best in town.
There were higher aspirations for the Villa Street location than to remain a storefront operation. The Puebla folks eventually acquired the adjacent space and created a rustic, cozy, booth-lined dining room with brick walls, mariachi murals and a trompe l'oeil sky. They have printed menus and table service, so you can chomp on chips and salsa instead of cooling your heels by the door as you await your order. And evening dining can be a leisurely affair, complete with "cerveza" (beer to us gringos) or a margarita.
Meanwhile, Puebla No. 3 opened in Hen's Teeth Square, the cute little shopping center at the corner of Los Robles and Woodbury Road. This Puebla seems a cross between the other two: a bit more spacious than No.1 but not a "full-service" restaurant like No. 2. Most important (at least to my spouse), No. 2 is the only one of the three with a liquor license.
Come into any of the Pueblas at breakfast time and they'll hand you a plump breakfast burrito, loaded with eggs, cheese, chorizo, etc., for a mere $5.95. I don't know about you, but that deal sure beats an Egg McMuffin and maybe even a Grand Slam. And if Puebla doesn't refill your coffee every two minutes like they do at Denny's, the simple red, green and white interiors are a heck of a lot better than a drive-thru.
Better yet, skip the coffee altogether. All three Pueblas include "champurrado" on their beverage lists. This Mexican hot chocolate is thickened with masa (corn flour), spiced with cinnamon and darkened with cocoa powder ($2.25 for a medium, $5.25 for a large) and is traditionally drunk at breakfast. You've got to try it, and it may easily become addictive.
The best of Puebla Tacos, as far as I'm concerned, comes later in the day. I've spent several sublime lunchtimes sitting at one of their tables, happily dribbling searingly hot salsa out of the end of my gargantuan burrito de pastor (barbecued pork-$6.25) or burrito de camaron (shrimp-$8.25) onto my clothing. And frankly, if I'm going to go through a two-inch stack of paper napkins, forget those commercials; I'd sure rather do it at Puebla than at Carl's Jr.
The burritos come in almost as many "flavors" as Baskin-Robbins ice cream: pastor, carnitas, lengua, asada, cabeza (head), buche (don't ask!), pollo, birria, tripas for $6.75-$8.25. A bit less overwhelming are the soft tacos (with the same fillings) for $2 plus apiece. You'll need at least three if you're hungry. The advantage is, of course, that you can try a wider variety in a single meal.
The condiment bars at all locations are primo — providing onion, cilantro, peppers, pico de gallo and three homemade salsas, including an extremely smoky chipotle to spice things up. (But the food, as it comes from the kitchen, is plenty flavorful without any doctoring at all.)
If you want to get fancier, Puebla No. 2 offers seafood soups (three varieties) ranging in price from $8.50 to $12.75. The Pueblas' menus include three shrimp entrees (garlic, diabla and Mexicana) for $11.75, including beans and rice. If you stick with the tacos and burritos (as I invariably do), one of the most satisfying meals in Pasadena can be had for under $10.

Man convicted in baby death seeks appeal
Green Bay man convicted of killing 4-month-old son
A 24-year-old Green Bay man convicted of killing his 4-month-old son is making a third attempt to get his name cleared.
Jeremiah Felton is serving a life sentence for first-degree intentional homicide of his son, J.J. Felton. He's accused of slamming his son's head into a door after the child cried during a bath in June 2008.
The Green Bay Press-Gazette reported Felton's attorney filed the motion Friday asking for reconsideration of an appellate court ruling upholding his conviction.
Felton unsuccessfully argued to the court this month that a prosecutor's erroneous remark at his trial and ineffective defense counsel justifies a new trial.
Felton earlier lost a bid for a new trial based on reports that one of his jurors had received in inappropriate text message before his conviction.

When Nabucco is struck by lightning he proclaims himself to be a god. Others think he is a mad man, a tyrant, yesterday's news, a father and possibly even a liberator. In the final reckoning how will Nabucco be judged?
Best known for 'Va, pensiero – The Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves', Nabucco is a rich treasure by the young Verdi that all fans of his work will want to discover. Nabucco is the operatic equivalent of a 1950s biblical Hollywood epic with its rousing, soaring score. We are delighted to present Nabucco once again as the company who re-introduced it to British audiences a century after it was last performed on these shores. Rudolf Frey's production set in the modern day puts the WNO Chorus at the heart of the drama. Nabucco will send you home humming the tunes and tapping your feet for days to come.
Supported by the Colwinston Charitable Trust, WNO Partners and the Nabucco Circle.

How did Evergreen prepare you for your professional life
Evergreen taught me that if I wanted something done, I'd better learn how to do it myself. Once, while learning how to shoot video, I dumped a TV monitor onto the sidewalk outside the Mods. Crash! I had to pay for a new one--ouch. But someone at Media Loan helped arrange payments, and hired me to work off a part of the debt. I learned to be more careful with the equipment--and I learned I could get help when I needed it. I learned I could make life-long friends with my teachers—hey there, Rudy Martin!—and fellow students: ditto, Steve Blakeslee. I learned that no matter where I go, no matter what I do, I'll always have a piece of Evergreen's heart in my heart, helping to show me the way. Thanks, Evergreen.

Iowa governor defends picks for Board of Regents
Gov. Terry Branstad is defending his picks to the Board of Regents after two of his three nominees were not endorsed by a Senate committee.
Branstad says Monday that senators should not make decisions based on "political litmus tests."
The Senate Education Committee voted last week to forward two of Branstad's nominations to the full Senate without recommendation. Current Board President Craig Lang did not get the committee's backing. Neither did Grimes businessman Robert Cramer. The board did recommend confirming Webster City physician Subhash Sahai to the nine-member board that oversees the state's three public universities.
Lang's tenure has troubled Democrats. Lawmakers questioned Cramer about his socially conservative views.
Branstad praises Lang's record, citing a planned tuition freeze as one accomplishment. Branstad also says Cramer's construction knowledge would be valuable.

Reblogged from Chuck Norris.
[F]or too many years I was in rebellion to God. Now I'm a rebel with a cause for God and for grass-roots America.
I no longer fit the mold. I'm not a liberal actor from Hollywood. I'm not politically correct, in my opinions or my practice. And though I'm concerned with what people think, I will not compromise the truth in any form to cater to others, even with religion and politics.
Those who would merely brand me on "the right" are oversimplifying and running from the real issue. I'm not the issue! None of us are. Jesus is, especially during Christmas.
And the question He asked the people of His day still needs to be answered by those in ours: "Who do people say that I am?"

Pharmacy Students Present at National Meetings
Before the end of the fall semester, a group of students from the Wegmans School of Pharmacy were invited to present at two different national meetings.
Kevin Smith, Casey Utter, Meredith Bodah, Nicole Vaughn, Lara Kratochwill, and Toni Zahorian presented their research at the American Society of Health System Pharmacists Midyear Clinical Meeting and Exhibition, which took place in Las Vegas, Nevada. Adrian Hui, a member of the School of Pharmacy's Class of 2012, also presented. Dr. Andrea Traina, Assistant Professor, worked with all of the students on their research.
Smith, Utter, Bodah, and Vaughan presented a poster entitled, "Dose-Related Cell Death and Inflammatory Gene Expression Seen in Microglia Treated with High Concentrations of Fructose." Kratochwill presented, "Glycemic Control in Gestational Diabetes." Zahorian and Hui's research project was entitled, "Once Weekly Exenatide as Adjunct Management of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus."
The meeting is the largest gathering of pharmacy professionals in the world, and attracts over 20,000 attendees each year. Along with presenting, the students also had the chance to interact with pharmacists, other students, and residents from across the country.
Students Erich Weiss and Scott Vietri were both invited to present at the Institute for Healthcare Improvement's national meeting, an annual event that draws nearly 6,000 health care professionals from around the world. The meeting took place in Orlando, Florida.
Weiss' research consisted of a systematic review of randomized controlled trials of the use of interactive voice response (IVR) technologies as key components of interventions to improve patient health outcomes. He presented at the meeting's interdisciplinary student forum. According to Dr. Jill Lavigne, IVR is often used in pharmacy practice today, and she said Weiss' work may have clinical applications that are of particular interest to the industry.
Vietri presented his work which applied architectural principles of intentional design to the problem of reducing transmission of antimicrobial-resistant microorganisms in hospital settings.
Toni Zahorian and Adrian Hui present their poster.

In other news... Here are a few fabulous pins that I came across this week.
Wow. I love this little nook. Usually, leather sofas don't speak to me-- don't get me wrong, I love leather, and I love sofas.... but most of the time they don't look super comfortable or inviting. This sofa breaks the mold for me. I want to sit my behind on that sofa and read a book. I also LOVE the painting and the picture light makes it feel even more special than it already is! Also- don't you just love that flirty, feminine pillow paired with the tartan throw? Yes sir.
This room makes me want to have
a set of twin boys well behaved twin boys that are always clean and love design. (I am aware that my statement above is much like creating a space for a purple unicorn, but hey, a girl can dream!) Anyway- I adore the scale of the jenny lind syle beds and the little loft space is really special and really well done. Don't you just LOVE the two doors that flank the small staircase? Those porthole mirrors are delicious.
This is a GREAT DIY that I ran across on the blog, Gorgeous Shiny Things. I got totally sucked into this blog last night... so many great DIY's! I LOVE the fringed look of this oversized convex mirror. Ya'll know I'm a sucker for a convex....
I saw this space and was jealous immediately. I would LOVE a studio like this to paint in.... wowwie zowwie ya'll. Also- love that juju hat... I've had my eye on one of these guys for years now... will I ever bite the bullet and buy one? OR will I copy Gorgeous Shiny Things and pull off a great convex mirror DIY that is reminiscent of this juju hat!?! Decisions, decisions.
As usual... dogs are part of my post. I love dog art. I mean, love it. I have painted one pup in my day... but I really want to paint my doggies one day. I love the wallpaper in this space as well as those gorgeous chairs. The slipcovered seat is SO pretty-- Don't you just love the whimsical quality that the pup painting brings to this space?
and speaking of dogs.... I added this amazing coffee table book to my Christmas wish list. Maddie on Things MUST come to my abode. She would fit right in.
And of course I pinned this... of course. Who knew this kind of cuteness even existed!?!
I hope all of you abode lovers have a great Friday and an amazing weekend! Make sure to stop by Sadie + Stella today to enter into the Laurel Dawn Giveaway!

I am also really looking to see if I can find a lactation consultant. The url suggested does not work.
I gave birth to boy/girl twins on 6/29. They were 24.3 weeks and spent 2 weeks and 1 day in NICU. They did not allow me to put them to breast until about 8-10 days after they were born.
We are now at home and I really cannot get them to latch. And it's so hard to try with two, not tire them out, etc. Sometimes my son will latch for maybe 4-8 minutes. The most my daugher has latched was for about 3 minutes maybe once. I really need help. I REALLY want them to get majority breastmilk and feel that if I can't get them to latch they won't and pumping won't do it. Help please.

Hi all,
I not long ago rockboxed my sansa fuze so that I could get over the volume issues I was experiencing. Finally have everything the way I like it but I have just synced a audiobook on there and I can't see it anywhere! I know the sync completed successfully as it's listed on the fuze. On the original firmware the device refreshed each time it was synced. Does rockbox have to do a similar thing and if so how do I do it? I apologise if this has already been answered but I couldn't see a search box within this thread which is weird.
I have initialized and updated the database and still can't see anything. Just anybody else use audible? I have an audible directory but when I click on it there is just a empty folder. Audible manager shows the audiobook is on my device and sync completed successfully.
found it, didn't want to show me the file because it sees it as unsupported. I downloaded them in the format the website said so I guess it's over to them now. :( Sorry to have taken space on here but if anyone has experienced this and knows the solution then I would very much appreciate the help. I have downloaded my audiobook in format 4 which is what audible recommends for the fuze.
If they are DRM protected Audible files they won't be usable in Rockbox. If you set your file browser's file view to show all files you should be able to see them.
I've found DRM files transferred in MTP in the "##" folders and by using the database. They wouldn't play but I could see them.
Thanks. I have been on rockbox and found that out earlier so I just use the dual-boot feature AFTER I activated the device in audible manager. Apparently this needs to be done even if the programme recognises your device. Thanks again for your post.
For anyone interested, this is achieved by right clicking your device from the list on the left hand side and clicking activate.

- Health status and use of health services among recently arrived men with refugee backgrounds: A comparative analysis of urban and regional settlement in South-East Queensland
- Author(s)
- Correa-Velez, I.; Barnett, A. G.; Gifford, S. M.; Sackey, D.
- Abstract
- Approximately one-third of refugee and humanitarian entrants to Australia are adult men. Many of these men and their families settle in regional areas. Little is known about the health status of refugee men and the use of health services, and whether or not there are differences between those living in urban and regional areas. This paper reports on the cross-sectional differences in health status and use of health services among a group of 233 recently arrived refugee men living in urban and regional areas of South-east Queensland. Overall, participants reported good levels of subjective health status, moderate to good levels of well-being, and low prevalence of mental illness. Men living in urban areas were more likely to have a long-standing illness and report poorer health status than those settled in regional areas. In contrast, men living in regional areas reported poorer levels of well-being in the environment domain and were more likely to visit hospital emergency departments. Targeted health promotion programs will ensure that refugee men remain healthy and develop their full potential as members of the Australian community. Programs that facilitate refugees' access to primary health care in regional areas may promote more appropriate use of hospital emergency departments by these communities.

Well I have a six week old already trying to do this!

And hes also a grunter and a groaner when nursing.. you would think he was trying to shovel solid concrete or something, but he sounds more like hes just enjoying it a whole lot!!

text: Hello ladies, I have a question about losing weight while breastfeeding. My LO is almost 7 months and we are going strong breastfeeding--I am also a SAHM. I have managed to put on 15 lbs since I had my baby which puts me at a very unhealthy 224. I would really like to lose weight, however, I do not know if cutting calories and exercising will compromise my milk supply. I know that there must be a way to do this, but I don't even know how many calories I need to consume a day to lose weight while breastfeeding, and still remain in the healthy milk producing range. I do not need a miracle, I just want to know how I can do this in a slow healthy way and how many calories I need to be eating, and if it's okay to do vigorous exercise like treadmill jogging (just about anything would be vigorous to me now ).

Rutland again defies the oddsJuly 30,2014On Tuesday, July 22, the Gift-of-Life Mini Summer Marathon collected 376 pints of life-saving blood in one of the toughest months of the year to collect an adequate blood supply for the hospitals and patients the Red Cross serves.
I wish to thank the people of the greater Rutland area for their continued support and take this opportunity to apologize to those individuals who came to donate at the blood drive and either experienced a delay or were unable to donate due to a delayed start time.
Our staff members experienced some technical problems early on the morning of the drive. Immediate steps are being taken to mitigate these issues going forward. I apologize for the delayed opening of the blood drive. It was a challenging day, but the difficulties were overcome by teamwork and an amazingly dedicated community of donors.
I want to thank the volunteers who make blood drives such as this possible, and I particularly want to thank Steve Costello, vice president at Green Mountain Power, and Terry Jaye, program manager for Catamount Radio, who are the heart and soul of the Rutland Gift-of-Life blood drive. Their support and leadership has ensured the continued success of this semi-annual life-saving event.
Once again, a heartfelt thank-you to the people of the greater Rutland area. After last Decembers Gift-of-Life Marathon record-breaking blood drive, where we collected more than 2,300 units of lifesaving blood, your community continues to defy the odds. I am always amazed at the dedication of the people of Rutland for their pride of community service, but most important, to helping their fellow man. On behalf of the countless number of patients you have helped, thank you.

With a stinking sinker, Cook gets shook
Rockies lose to the Dodgers 9-5 in LA.
That makes seven wins in a row for the Dodgers (9-3) and two straight losses for the Rockies (4-6),
The only thing I hate more than losing to the Dodgers on the road is losing to them at Coors Field.
Man-Ram had Cookie's number today as he chalks up his first two homers of the season. One in the first inning and one in the third.
Wonder if that was what shook Cook?
Props to Brad Hawpe and Ian Stewart. Hawpe hit a triple to score two and Stewart had a sweet solo homer in the 8th.,
It's still early but it seems like at any given time the Rockies are firing on about five of their nine cylinders.
The Rockies are keeping this engine on the road and running, but until all nine cylinders are in sync it's just gonna be a bumpy ride.
Ranter's Bad Joke of the Day
A cowboy walks into a bar, after two steps in he realizes it's a gay
bar. "What the heck," he says to himself, "I really want a drink."
When the gay waiter approaches, he says to the cowboy, "What's the name
of your willy?"
The cowboy says, "Look, I'm not into any of that. All I want is a
The gay waiter says, "I'm sorry but I can't serve you until you tell me
the name of your willy. Mine for instance is called NIKE, for the slogan,
"Just Do It." That guy down at the end of the bar calls his SNICKERS, because
'It really satisfies."
The cowboy looks dumbfounded, so the bartender tells him he will give
him a second to think it over. So the cowboy asks the man sitting to his left
who is sipping on a beer, "Hey bud, what's the name of yours?"
The man looks back and says with a smile, "TIMEX."
The thirsty cowboy asks, "Why Timex?"
The fella proudly replies, "'Cause it takes a lickin' and keeps on
A little shaken, the cowboy turns to two fella's on his right, who
happen to be sharing a fruity Margarita and says, "So, what do you guys call
The first man turns to him and proudly exclaims, "FORD, because
"Quality is Job One." Then he adds, "Have you driven a Ford lately?" The guy next
to him then says, "I call mine CHEVY…'Like a Rock!'" And gives a wink!
Even more shaken, the Cowboy has to think for a moment before he comes
up with a name for his manhood. Finally, he turns to the bartender and
exclaims, "The name of my willy is SECRET. Now give me a beer."
The bartender begins to pour the cowboy a beer, but with a puzzled look
asks, "Why Secret?"
The cowboy says, "Because it's 'STRONG ENOUGH FOR A MAN, BUT MADE FOR A

Hey D,
Unfortunately the Rockies are no laughing matter. Sigh! Hope they pull it together soon.
D- Great joke. Can you even believe that Manny finally got not one, but two home runs against the Rockies?! That wasn't supposed to happen. And Ethier was great as well. It just wasn't their day today.
JULIA-Thanks, I'm trying to find one of those shirts to purchase, Krista wants one🙂
R-LUV-Agreed, and we've got the Dodgers again at home next weekend.
EMILY-It's Manny I can believe it. I may try and snag Manny's autograph next weekend. Word is he's a tough one to get.
I believe Cook will overcome and persevere. We all know he has the right stuff…D
Excellent joke my friend…and the shirt, my older brother owns that exact same one!!
Good luck to your Rockies and good luck to you getting Manny's autograph…keep me posted.
Thanks Happy, I have my ways…D

quote hiigaranNeedless to say, but initially, I was under the impression that because I had to play my Steam games off of my HDD, an SSD would bring a significant performance boost.processing performance > load times. priorities, dude.
quote bakabakaReads and Writes to an SSD are much faster than a HDD. If I were in your shoes and had the budget, I'd have my OS and apps/games load from an SSD and a 1TB HDD hosting my mp3s, mp4s, etc.
Essentially its a waste of time and performance to store large files that are rarely accessed onto an SSD. You pay too much per GB for that. Save big fiels there upfront then send them to a HDD later on.
quote hiigaranI overclock a little bit, and still don't receive optimal performance on more demanding titles. I believe upgrading is the only solution at this point, but thanks for the suggestion!if you intend on upgrading your CPU, try overclocking first. that should be able to give you a decent enough boost that you can get closer to maxing out your games.
quote bakabakaWhile the bulk of my problems do lie in the online-only Crysis 3 beta, I do know it is not a connection problem, as my ping for this and most other online games is generally under 60.Just to confirm, if it's a network game the lag will be due to network connections rather than an SSD.
I did a side by side comparison of Starcraft 2 on HDD vs SSD... the results were amazing. Unfortunately Diablo 3 loads from battlenet.
SSDs are definitely great when the content loads from the drive.

"Yes, sir, we promised you a great main event…"
We get a nice lil video package showing the Slammy's of the past and some wow moments of 2011 before the start of the show. The opening is full of Flo Rida and comes off as a legit awards show, with a female voice over and the like. Pyros galore and we are welcomed by Michael Cole and we are here for the first Slammy of the Night.

Jim Ross is out to accept his Slammy. He never thought he'd ever win a Slammy for getting JIGGY with it. Here is Cole on the mic....oh joy. He claims this is ridiculous. He can't beleive that we are only one award in and already it' a sham. Obviously, the dance contest was rigged and he is going to accept an award for it? The only thing JR did was get jiggily with it, cuz he's fat. Booker calls Cole a loser. Booker bets that tonight, Jim Ross could beat Michael Cole right now in...a Rap Off. Shades of The Greg DeMarco Show! Cole is down. He listens to Eminem, so lets get this thing done.
My name is Cole. That's my name.
I'm like JR, but I'm even smaller.
I went to Wrestlemania and I beat Jerry Lawler.
Good Ol JR, I'm better than you
I'm the voice of this show, not a fat tub of goo
JR, I know you're jealous, yeah you are
I think you should just take a hike
cuz you know that the whole wide world wants to be like MIKE!
Why don't you just crawl back in your hole
Cuz you just got screwed...by Vintage Cole.
Jim Ross is going to do this acapella:
Michael Cole, you're a damn fool
The King beat you like a Government Mule
I should be callin RAW cuz you ain't got no talent

You kiss the Kings feet now you can kiss my ass
Jim Ross wins this, but Booker says it's not over just yet...Booker calls for the Spinarooni from JR. We get....a variant of it, but essentially it's Jim Ross spinning. I swear, when he fell back, I thought he was having a heart attack. This was as bad as you can imagine...

He claims that what would go real good with this Slammy is the World Heavyweight Championship and after TLC, he's going to put those two together. Show says he is going to do what he does best, go into the ring and bust some heads.
Match 1: The Big Show vs. Wade Barrett
We come back while the match is in play. Show trucks through Wade Barrett in the ring and Wade is outside. Show follows. Show looks like he's going to toss Barrett into the table, but Barrett floats over and sends him to the ring post. Show is on his knees, face down on the table. Wade Barrett hops up to the second rope, looking to jump but Show is up and stares at him. Show crushes the fucking table in half with his bare hands then chops Wade into the ring. Wade goes for the chair, Show...

Tag: women get families talking money
Having "the talk" with your family about money
- 1:00 pm Monday, December 9th, 2013 by Dian Vujovich
Ask any Boomer-aged parent what conversation their parent's dreaded most having with them and they will probably say it was about sex. No doubt about it, those days are gone. Fair to say that replacing it today is a "money" conversation. You know, the one in which your wishes, wills, trusts, legacy and who gets the Baccarat are discussed.
Over the past few weeks more than one financial professional on TV has been yakking about how this holiday season would be a great time to talk money. Their thinking? Since families are gathering to enjoy some family festivities, why not have [More]

January 6, 2004: Trailing 200,000-light-year-long streamers of seething gas, a galaxy that was once like our Milky Way is being shredded as it plunges at 4.5 million miles per hour through the heart of a distant cluster of galaxies. In this unusually violent collision with ambient cluster gas, the galaxy is stripped down to its skeletal spiral arms as it is eviscerated of fresh hydrogen for making new stars.See the rest:
This galaxy has a strange shape reminiscent of the wake around a boat sailing across a lake. The analogy is apt because the galaxy is plowing through hot gas in the center of a galaxy cluster
The galaxy will be stripped of the hydrogen gas needed to make successive generations of stars. In that sense the galaxy will grow old prematurely. It will be left with aging stars, but no bright blue, new star clusters.
To analyze the galaxy astronomers made a variety of diagnostic observations from telescopes that record the galaxy's appearance in X-ray, optical, and radio light. The observations discovered bright star clusters on the galaxy's leading edge; the galaxy has a tail of gas; and the galaxy is surrounded by its own gas, which is leaking from it.
Though such "distressed" galaxies have been seen before, this one's demise is unusually swift and violent. That's because the galaxy belongs to a cluster of galaxies that slammed into another cluster about 100 million years ago.
Views of the early universe show that spiral galaxies were once much more abundant in rich clusters of galaxies. But they seem to have been vanishing over cosmic time. This result helps explain why.

By Bonnie Ennis, Colorado State University Cooperative Extension agent, horticulture
You and I undoubtedly have turned up the heat more than once this winter to survive the cold. Or we've bundled up in coats, hats, mittens and heavy socks to stay warm.
Insects also devise ways to stay warm in winter. Some go dormant, into a state called "diapause," while others remain active. Insects that spend the winter in diapause withstand a greater range of low temperatures than those that remain active -- some to temperatures as low as -94o F, which is about the lowest reported temperature for natural environments.
With few exceptions, insects that go dormant for the winter fit into two classes: freeze-susceptible and freeze tolerant.
A freeze-susceptible insect avoids freezing altogether by depending heavily on antifreeze compounds, called cryoprotectants, to supercool body fluids and tissues above their freezing point. Ethylene glycol, the same compound found in antifreeze for cars, is the most common cryoprotectant.
Freeze-tolerant insects do not really freeze, at least not totally. Just the fluid, which bathes their living cells, freezes. This freezing process forces water out of the living cells thus lowering the freezing point even further. (Smaller amounts of water freeze at lower temperatures than larger amounts of water.)
Freeze-tolerant insects aren't necessarily more cold tolerant than freeze-susceptible insects. Each class of insects just has its own unique survival strategy.
Both types of insects also are affected by other conditions that affect their rate of winter survival: size, moisture, nutrition, temperature, stage of growth and species.
Insects essentially are little bags of water. Their ability to supercool depends, in part, on how much water they contain. The smaller the amount of water, the greater their ability to supercool without freezing. Smaller arthropods (ants, insect eggs, tiny spider mites) can supercool to colder temperatures than larger species, such as grasshoppers. This phenomenon also is true between individuals within a species. A smaller housefly may be more cold hardy than a larger housefly.
Partial drying can be beneficial for some insects. The freezing point of a housefly is lowered by 50o F after dehydration. For other insects, such as boxelder bugs, dehydration has no cold weather benefits.
An insect with an empty gut will survive lower subfreezing temperatures than an insect with a full gut. This is because food in the gut attracts water that can freeze and promote growth of ice crystals.
The intensity and duration of cold and freezing, as well as exposure time to cold is critical to insect survival. If exposed long enough, an insect will die at moderately cold temperature.
Stage of Growth
Insects pass through several stages of growth before beginning a new generation. For the most part, each insect species overwinters in a stage of growth best adapted to cold temperatures.
For example, non-feeding growth stages (eggs, pupae) survive colder temperatures than feeding growth stages (larvae and adults, although not all larvae and adult stages feed actively.) Some insects improve chances of winter survival by building protective structures, such as cocoons or pupae, at a specific growth stage. This reduces surface moisture contact that could cause freezing.
Species and Migration
Insects are adapted to different climates. Whiteflies evolved in tropical and subtropical climates and perish in Colorado unless they can overwinter in a heated building. Tomato hornworms spend the Colorado winter in the pupal stage (inside a hardened case) and buried several inches deep in the soil.
Other insect species migrate to warmer climates for the winter. The Monarch and Painted Lady butterflies migrate south in late summer, then return in spring with warmer weather.
Most species, however, move only to a different and generally nearby habitat, such as from fields to woodlands, and in agricultural areas from fields to groves, hedges or shelterbelts. Other insects overwinter in their summer sites.
Winter conditions and suitably protected habitats can be critical to an insect's winter survival. Snow cover offers good insulation from winter cold. Light, fluffy snow provides more insulation than packed snow. The north side of a tree maintains the same temperature as the air, but the south side of a tree may be several degrees warmer on a sunny day. Wet substrates (soil, leaves) cool slower than dry substrates; saturated substrates may suffocate an overwintering insect.
With so many variables affecting winter insect survival, it is difficult to predict such rates from one year to the next. Just the same, we can use winter conditions to monitor the development of certain agricultural pests.
Mild conditions, for example, will produce an earlier spring migration of green peach aphids (you may see this little pest on your lettuce and spinach leaves in summer). Long periods of sub-zero temperatures result in winter mortality of some grasshoppers. By understanding these factors, we can more accurately time pest control procedures for some insects.

The Hawaii Council for Humanities, or HCH, has announced Laie Elementary teacher Colleen Spring as the 2013 Hawaii History Teacher of the Year.
Spring, who has been at Laie Elementary for over 20 years, has taught a wide range of grade levels and core subjects including world history. She initiated and coordinated the 'We the People, the Citizen and the Constitution' curriculum for the school to assist all fifth-grade students in becoming informed citizens who participate in the democratic process.
For the past five years, Spring's students have also qualified for and competed at the National History Day contest at the University of Maryland in College Park. She has helped a number of students reach their History Day project goals as well as gain a greater appreciation for historical research through primary and secondary documents.
"Mrs. Spring is an extraordinary U.S. history teacher," said Lea Albert, complex area superintendent for Castle-Kahuku. "Her high expectations, energy and skill serve to create an environment where U.S. history flourishes and student projects are remarkable for their quality."
Spring will be recognized at a special awards ceremony at 1 p.m. on Oct. 2 at Laie Elementary. She will receive a $1,000 honorarium, and will be in the running to be named the 2013 National History Teacher of the Year in the Fall.

"Your post is an insult to all of us "
Meaning you get offended when I insult 1andonly back? Ahh, its pretty obvious now. No wonder why you came into this thread from the beginning. Listen, I have no problem your kind of people or that kind of lifestyle, just don't preach it so much on here or be so open about it. Its very uncomfortable to see two guys comfort each other post after post after post.
I'm trying my BESt to keep this topic on basketball, but as you see Donchris's knowledge on basketball is very limited. Talking about too much basketball will confuse him. Now you know why he doesn't read everything.
Guys we need to realize this is the same guy who wanted Allan Houston to DIE, but yet he's defending Jamal Crawford as the franchise SG of this team. He's also the same man who doesn't know who Corliss Williamson is, and thinks Isiah is the greatest thing since peanut butter and jelly.
Like I said, Jamal Crawford and Eddy Curry aren't good enough to lead this team. They're one dementional players. Crawford likes to chuck, Curry can score in the post. Their all around games are TRASH. They're both poor defensely and turnover prone. They need alot of improvement. They've been in the NBA for over 6 years already. They're not good enough to lead this team. Thats my opinion backed up with facts and the theories I've developed from watching them. If you can't respect well, I could care less, you have no credibility or knowledge of the NBA.
Rado has credibility, don't bring him in this.
I use TVU player to watch internationall games. Ooh, I'm sure you use it now. Thats why you never mention it before . Well, what are you going to say next post? You have NBA TV cause it exist? If you had TVU you would of said it earlier, you seem a little late on that now. Stop being so down on your self, SPEAK UP for yourself. Learn how to defend your points. If you said you had TVU you would of accually made a POINT against me, and I wouldn't have said anything back to you. Now you look like a fool. You've typed SO much, but have yet to proved anything correct except you correct my theories with your idiocy.
LOL, how do you WATCH games in the NY Post? You can read about the game, but its not as resourceful as watching the game Haven't you learn NY Media is negative as hell? I'm telling your dumbass to watch the games for yourself, so you can have your own perspective of it, then read the NY Post, come to this forum and compare your perspective with the information you read. This is being reasonable and educated, something you do. Its too late to say you do now, cause you never said it before. Why make up things after things in all your post? You lack credibility, information and knowledge to gain my respect, you might as stick to the insults.
You said pathetic twice. Expand your vocabulary.
I watch more Knick games than you, and I can easily tell you Crawford and Curry bring more negatives to this team than positives. All you can do is check the box score. I by far have more resources than you. This makes my credibility superior to yours. Face the reality. Don't stress it, don't cry about it, just face it. You mad now?
We had the 3rd worst record in the NBA, Crawford's defense was terrible last year. Where have you been? Crawford led the team in scoring, so what? He chucked up the most shots. Chucking up the most shots on the team will obviously make you the leader scorer. Crawford is a chucker who only gets praised when he hits a game winning shot. He loses more games for the Knicks than win them. Once again, another NULL agruement by DonChris.
I'm glad you're showing less stubborness and admitting you're limited knowledge of the NBA. But don't ever DOUBT my credibility when yours is inferior. Thats why I targeted your lack of knowledge in the league, you question my credibility and my intelligence. Don't make that mistake again.
I like how you copy my lines now. "INTELLIGENT NBA fans" You're running out of things to say and now you're copying my lines? I had to educate you on who Corliss Williamson was. You're by far the least knowledable NBA fan in this forum, stop debating this. You owned yourself along time ago, don't be frustrated at me. Next time, learn how to keep stupid thoughts in your mind. Think of something. If it sounds stupid, don't say it or text. Thats how you sound SMART. You have problems doing this.
Wrong. Wrong. WRONG.
"So according to you people outside of NY don't know about the Knicks. "
I never said this, stop assuming and going off topic.
I realize Rado is the creator of this site, why do you repeat everything twice? Are you retarded? Stop assuming and repeating null theories, and read MORE. Watch more games.
I've insulted no one except you two, don't get butthurt, you played the insult game first. What now, you can't handle a diss? If I "lack" credibility don't get mad. Its obviously getting to you.
Since when is it trendy to be a Knick fan? I rep the Knicks all the time. I get trashed by people in NYC. Not everyone in NYC is a Knick fan, you have your bandwagon Spurs/Dallas fans in High School. Even in college, people who don't follow basketball tell me the Knicks suck. They do, but I tell they're my team all the way.
lol @ how angry Chris gets when he gets beat. Its just funny cause I don't take him seriously at the same time you can tell he's really MAD.
This is funny, this is the same guy who SAID he knows the Knicks roster, but that makes him a Knicks fan.
Talking about me picking up chicks? Now thats FUNNY. Especially when you're on these forums 24/7. Whenever I log on, you're logged in, ready to reply. I'm here every 3-5 days. You? every 3-5 minutes. You have no free time, most likely you live with your mother. I have better things to do than bully you. I do this for laughs.
donchris, go study more about the NBA history or the current NBA today. You've embarassed yourself countless of times. You repeat yourself over and over. In reality, you're talking about yourself. You don't speak for the people here.
Only one person in this forum agrees with you. Its the least respected, most disrespectful poster on this forum. Go figure. I've had plenty of different posters compliment my post and my ideas. Like I said, you're the last person to represent the Knick fans on this forum.
LOL...why are you trying to say yo and son now? You live in NC, you're from the 'burbs of Jersey, you're out of character here. I like you better as a the nerd who gets picked on. Don't try to get out of character now.
Issues? You're the only one in here with low confidence. All your previous post had very low self esteem. You didn't even seem confidence in what you were writing. You just pulled everything out of your ass and posted it in the forum. Be more confident when you write. I can understand you get frustrated when you're not proving your points and not making sense in your agruements, but theres no need to be down or get frustrated at your fellow poster. Stop being so mad.
Everyone, look at this. DonChris is coming out of the closet and openly showing his relationship with 1 n only. Could imagine how many PM's these two have with each other? They probably plan out how they're going to reply to me...LMAO, put mad work into debating with me. But yet, I feel like they haven't said a thing. I'll give 1nOnly for correcting me on Fyre's name, but he made the same mistake too. So this thread has been all ME. Ahah, no wonder why he follows all of your post. You're either 1 n lonely himself, or you two are really close. I think thats weak though. Its sad how you have to give a shout to your BF. I understand a guy can give props to another guy, but you guys do it constantly, post after post. You're making it too obivous or trying too hard. It doesn't look cool. It looks BAD, cause the only guy who gives you props here is 1andOnly...and I don't want to know what you give him in return. Ahah, you're even coaching him "Don't respond back." Why? You're getting sad at the beating he's taking? You weren't even in this thread before, you came along to protect your BF 1nonly, now you're taking the beating too. Oh wait, I could sense your self esteem taking a hit. You're feeling like I got you again? Don't sweat it. Remember its just the internet.
We didn't cover much. What we did cover was you and the monkey make a good couple. Depression, socially challenged, low self esteem, no confidence in what they speak of, both out of NYC, both lack NBA intelligent, BOTH compliment each other after each post. You both share alot of qualities.
You're having fun? Well, you've waited 3 days doing nothing for to post, obviously you were excited to see me log back on. I mean sitting on the computer for 3 days, how boring is that? This is probably the most fun you've had all week. The worst part about it, you were exposed, ethered on and made look like a fool. Why wait 3 days for that? That's very depressing. You could of atleast presented a reasonable debate, but you brought nothing on here.
I cut your theory in pieces, and 1nonly replies back with insults? Mad homo how you two cover butt for each other.
This is your problem. You lack resorces. This is why I can't take you seriously. You don't know any history of the NBA. You don't know what happend in the NBA in the last 5 years. You don't have MSG, and you watch about 5 Knick games a year. When you try to agrue, you don't even bring up STATS. So how can anyone credit to making a valid agruement? Face it already, everything you have said has been NULL. You don't make sense when you type. When I read your text, my IQ seriously drops hard. I have to read a book after I reply to your post.
After reading all that, I think you may need this
Its okay, reply back and troll the forum with immature insults that don't bother me. You're the only, well and your boyfriend that are getting frustrated in here. My confidence is way too high to be insulted by some unemployed fat socially challenged guy who's not even from the city. Go milk a cow or something, lol.
btw, I bolded all the things you've dodged to make an agruement against. That either tells me you agree with me or just realized to shut the **** up and stop looking so dumb, which was a smart decision on you. I suggest you use it more, just showing you my points.

Okay, no frustration here! Just good vibes!
We had our one month check up yesterday, and LO is up to 8 lbs, 14 oz! He was 7 lb, 1 oz at birth and dropped to 6 lb, 2 oz at the hospital. I was encouraged to supplement and only did a couple times....then LO totally refused any formula. (that will show them
I am so thrilled! Now I know how a normal newborn can nurse and gain without extra pumping and fortifying breast milk with formula (had to do that with my twins). And it makes his marathon/cluster nursing all evening long worth it, and it will keep me from worrying that I am not making enough if he has to nurse all evening.
to us all nursing our newborns!

If laughter is the key to a happy marriage, then this clown couple in Pennsylvania should be set for life.
Sporting full clown regalia complete with fake noses and a flaming red wig, Patty Kulwicki and Billy Tedeski tied the knot this past weekend before hundreds of their fellow entertainers at the 2013 Clownfest in Lancaster.
Kulwicki reeled Tedeski in, literally, using a fishing pole to hook him as they mounted a stage at the beginning of the ceremony, The Patriot-News of Harrisburg reported.
They exchanged rings produced from a Cracker Jack box.
"Clowning just means so much to him," Kulwicki said of Tedeski. "I couldn't think of anything that would make him happier."
