Pruning Miniature Roses Indoors and Outdoors
Pruning miniature roses is one of the easiest of rose pruning chores.
To begin with, let's assume you've purchased a rose and it has finished its first flush of blooms.
Carefully Cut Off Fading Roses
At this point, carefully cut off the old fading roses. This gives you a small mound of canes – try to prune to a well-mounded shape with the center of the mini rose being slightly taller than the outer edges. If given a choice in your pruning, definitely prune to an outward facing bud. If you can't see one – don't sweat the small stuff – just prune to shape.
Overwintered Roses
If you've just had a rose overwinter and you're not sure what to do – pick 5-8 of the healthiest and thickest looking canes and remove the rest. We want the rose to focus its energy on feeding the thickest and healthiest canes rather than some smaller ones. Cut these back by half (if you didn't prune in the fall). The new shoots will come from these canes and after they flower, you follow the first paragraph.
If you've just rooted a cutting, don't prune it other than to remove flowers before they start to show color. We want the rose to put its energy into root and leaf production, not flowers. In its second year, you'll be pruning miniature roses as in the above paragraph. Note that it might not throw too many canes in its first year but will get larger every year.
Canes that come from below ground are not a problem with miniature roses as they are not grafted. These canes will flower exactly as the others. So you can leave them or prune them off – consider them as part of the 5-8 strong canes you're looking for.
Indoors - Pruning Miniature Roses
If you have a mini rose indoors, follow the first paragraph instructions after it finishes blooming. Treat it indoors as you would treat it outdoors. See the indoor page for instructions on maintaining this rose indoors.
Pruning miniature roses really is that simple. Simply use sharp shears and prune to shape the plant after each flush of bloom. It will take care of the rest.

"In all likelihood the assembly elections will be held in December and not deferred to next year," the sources said ahead of the visit of the Chief Election Commissioner and two Commissioners here Saturday to take the final call on whether or not to hold elections.
The new government in the state has to be in place before Jan 19, 2015 when the six-year term of the the present assembly ends.
Assembly elections have to be held in time so that putting the state under the governor's rule is avoided.
Under the state constitution which applies concomitantly to Jammu and Kashmir in addition to the Indian constitution, there is provision of six-month long governor's rule.
If an elected government is not in office beyond the period of the governor's rule, the state can be put under the President's rule as provided for by the country's constitution.
"Besides some constituencies in South Kashmir districts and Srinagar city, the recent floods have not directly affected any other area in the Valley so badly.
"After taking a holistic view of the entire situation in the aftermath of th e recent floods, the election commission is most likely to decide on holding the assembly elections on time this year," sources told IANS.
Last Tuesday, Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, after meeting Home Minister Rajnath Singh in New Delhi told media persons that the situation in the state was not conducive for holding Assembly elections due to the recent floods.
The full Election Commission comprising the Chief commissioner, V. S. Sampath, and two commissioners, H.S.Brahma and Naseem Zaidi, will be here on a two-day visit.
Sampath is slated to address a media conference in here Saturday afternoon.

6. Lai's Story About Ema
6. Lai's Story About Ema
Once upon a time, there was an old king who lived in a lavish castle, kept company only by his various servants. He had no wife and no children. Because he was very lonely, and because he knew that he would eventually need an heir, he decided to adopt a child from the nearby village. He told his loyal head servant to go down to the orphanage and to bring back the most deserving young boy or girl that he could find.
The head servant went down to the village, where he soon became taken with a beautiful little girl. She had golden hair and warm eyes, and was very sweet. She had no parents, so he took her back up to the castle and brought her before the king. The king approved of her greatly and decided to adopt her, and thus, she became the princess of the kingdom.
As she grew up, the princess found that she had a gift for helping people. Every day, villagers would come to sit before her throne and tell her about their problems, and she would try to help them find solutions. Even when she had no ideas, just talking to her usually made them feel better. She seemed to have a gift, which she used as often as she could.
Over time, the princess matured into a beautiful young woman, and she began to notice that many of the villagers' problems had to do with love. She had never been in love before. She wondered what it felt like, and how she could accomplish it. Soon she was practically obsessed with the emotion.
She knew that she needed to find a handsome beau to fall in love with. Her thoughts soon turned to her best friend, a dashing guard who worked in the castle. He was charming, good-looking, and he spent a lot of time with her. He seemed like the perfect man for her to fall in love with. But even though they saw each other often, and he was always gentlemanly and kind, she couldn't seem to fall in love with him.
The princess grew frustrated and tried to force herself to love him, but it was no use; they remained friends and friends only. But one day, the king heard from one of his servants that the guard and the princess were courting. He had already made arrangements for his adoptive daughter to marry a prince from another kingdom, and he was furious. He sent his servants to attack and drive out all of the guards. Fortunately, the princess's friend wasn't harmed. Unfortunately, his father was killed.
When the villagers heard about the attack, they decided that the king was crazy, and they had him cast out. The princess took his place as the reigning monarch, becoming a queen. She continued to help people with their problems, but she was worried about her best friend, who was taking the death of his father very hard. She had barely seen him since the attack. One day, she couldn't stand it any longer, and she hurried off to find him.
Find him she did, but he was different now. He didn't seem happy to see her, not even smiling at the sight of her. He told her that he had been making plans. He wanted to get rid of all the servants who had been loyal to the old king, because he thought that they might try to put the king back in power. He even had a plan so that he and his men could secretly kill them without anyone finding out…and he wanted her to help him.
The princess – or rather, the queen – was horrified. How could her friend blame her adoptive father's mistakes on a bunch of innocent bystanders?! She never would have believed him to be capable of such a terrible thing! She tried to talk him out of it, but he just shouted that he would carry out his plans with or without her, and that if she was really his friend, she would support him. Then he stormed off angrily.
Well, the queen knew that she had to put a stop to this, so she told the servants about the impending attack and had her friend arrested. The crisis was averted, and she returned to her normal routine of helping people. But she was very sad, because her best friend had been banished from the kingdom and she knew that she would never see him again. Everyone noticed her drastic change in behavior. Despite all of the advice she gave out, she couldn't seem to think of anything that would make herself feel better.
But as luck would have it, a visitor soon came to the castle: it was the prince who her father had intended for her to marry. The queen explained the whole situation to him, and he saw that she was upset and prompted her to talk to him about it. The two of them began to have long conversations, first about all of the calamities that had occurred, and then about anything and everything else. Soon they became friends, and eventually they fell in love.
The queen was so glad that she hadn't fallen in love with her former friend after all. Now she had found her true love, someone who would care about her and support her no matter what. She stopped regretting the past, and she and her prince got married and lived happily ever after. The end.

Meetings: Leveraging The People Power Of Technology And Tweets
Over the past few months I've attended or spoken at more than a half dozen events and meetings. All different and very worthwhile. Last month I was fortunate to attend The World Innovation Forum in New York City. This particular event was a gathering of some great thought leaders across an array of industries, causes and companies. (More on the highlights and impressions from this powerful conference soon.)
This post is about how technology and connection are changing the very nature and experience of meetings, events and conferences….for the better. As a communications person, I was fascinated by the pervasive presence of technology at all of the conferences I recently attended – everywhere and with everyone. We've come to expect the event organizers to employ the latest and greatest technology to deliver a powerful experience. What's changed now is the impressive array of technology that is also in the hands (literally) of the attendees and how smartly and creatively people are using it to build relationships and connections that enhance their event and meeting experiences.This convergence of technology is definitely changing the way everyone "experiences" the event experience…organizers, attendees, speakers and media.
Events Inside The Event:
Video, livestreaming, i-reporting, laptops, tweet streams, blackberries, i-phones, i-pads, podcasts, videographers are everywhere. In some ways the energy and buzz around all of this activity and technology creates mini events within the events. For me, these were all positive experiences that generated energy, enabled new forms of engagement and added spontaneity to the events. My most recent experience at the World Innovation Forum was particularly interesting and worth sharing.
I was fortunate to be one of about thirty bloggers invited to "cover" the event as part of what was called The 'Bloggers' Hub"….a private social media press club. We had great seats, full access to everything at the event, and all the power and broadband internet connectivity we needed. (Well, most of the time…we did crash it a few times). We had free reign and were encouraged to be active and free flowing. None of us really knew what to expect. It turned out to be a very positive and productive experience for the bloggers, our audiences, the speakers, attendees and the organizers. The open and diverse mix of people created a "bloggers' hub effect" with some very tangible benefits. Here are few:
Bloggers Hub Benefits:
• Facilitates a friendly, open platform for bloggers to provide real time updates, commentary and coverage of the speeches, presentations and other content. These are simultaneously shared with everyone at the event, over the internet and archived for later use.
• Serves as a micro-community of a diverse group of writers connecting around a common interest…live reporting and disseminating information of significance from the event…on the spot content creation centered on innovation.
• Creates an environment of mutually supportive and connected energy that feeds on itself. A special "vibe" that brings a new collective dynamic to a usually solitary writing process.
• Provides a "streaming commentary" on innovation topics and discussions as they happen and invites real time response and interaction from each blogger (and their audiences) which in turn fuels better reporting and writing.
• Links a network of "Trust Agents" to leverage the content being presented and discussed among the attendees. We created our own mini "Archimedes Effect" at the event.
• Provides a sustainable linked in platform for follow up commentary, analysis and networking that lives well beyond the event itself….in some cases for months.
As Asset-Based Thinking Perspective:
Technology is changing the way people see and experience just about everything, including meetings and events. Technology driven change presents opportunity and challenge. The opportunity to engage people in meeting experiences (large or small) that are more interactive, participatory, shared and sustainable. The challenge is to remember that it's great ideas, substance and powerful content that make technology meaningful and valuable.
Now, where's the cocktail party?

London, Dec 24 (IANS) A man who was stuck at his snowed-in home in Britain helped deliver his girlfriend's baby by checking the internet on his iPhone.
Chris Corfield used his phone to look online for tips on how to deliver a baby when his girlfriend Jenni Visser went into labour at their home in Southport, Merseyside, Daily Express reported Friday.
Medical help wasn't able to reach them due to the inclement weather.
Chris then turned to his iPhone and was able to help Jenni safely give birth to baby Freija.
'It all happened so quickly, I didn't have time to think about it or get nervous.
'Everyone has been saying how well I've done but really it was Jenni who did all the hard work,' he was quoted as saying.

Backed Into A CornerMature
Katrina walked in with a bowl of salsa, a rented movie from Blockbuster, and a bag of whole-grain Tostitos. She saw that Emily was seated at the PC and Alexis had her own laptop open in her lap. She also saw the a grin exchanged between her two friends. "What are you two up to?"
Alexis smiled. "We're signing ourselves up for PlentyOfFish."
Katina's head leaned back against her neck. "That dating site your brother uses because he's too nervous to go out to a bar?"
"Umm... yeah, that one," said Emily, eyes almost rolling.
Katrina looked down at Alexis's screen.
In the open window, Alexis was attempting to fix the red-eye on an otherwise attractive photograph of herself.
"Don't air-brush," teased Katrina.
The computer screens shimmered with peer pressure.
"I like it," said Emily, referring to the site and not the photograph.
"Hmm... I'm not one to be the odd one out, but I'm not sure how I feel about this," admitted Katrina.
"Well," said Emily. "I found a test on Facebook you just have to take. I already took it. But why don't you? I'll read the questions to you. Answer honestly."
"All right," said Katrina as she put the chips and salsa down, without opening the chips. Then she lay the copy of Forgetting Sarah Marshall beside the PC for later, since it could view DVDs. She backed herself into the arm chair in the corner of the room, and sat down.
Some time passed before Alexis had successfully eliminated her red-eye, and Emily had successfully tricked Katrina into answering the personality test and chemistry test for Katrina's own PlentyOfFish account which Emily had set up for her.
Emily had already done much to deceive Katrina. She'd entered her friend's postal/zip code, from a letter on the desk. And she'd posted six pictures of her friend that she didn't have permission to post. However, she meant well. And she was itching to tell her.
"Hey," said Alexis. "Have you looked at your matches, Em?"
"Not yet," said Emily, who hadn't actually made herself an account yet, and wasn't willing to intrude on Katrina's like that. "Why?"
"Well, I recognize a few of mine," claimed Alexis. "The clerk at the pet store, he's kinda cute. And some other guys from school."
"Like who?" asked Katrina, her interest finally piqued.

THROUGHOUT the NAB Challenge, SuperFooty and Fox Footy have been counting down to the 2014 AFL season by taking the blowtorch to every club's list.
We've listed every player and ranked them into one of five categories: Guns (in the elite of the competition); stars (very good players who aren't quite superstars); foot soldiers (regulars who get the job done each week); crossroads (fringe players who are playing for their career or are yet to cement a spot in the side), and 'who knows' (too early to make a call).
Today, we continue with Essendon. The Bombers defied a controversy-plagued 2013 as the supplements scandal dragged on to win 14 home and away matches — only to have their premiership points stripped in late August.
In 2014, Mark 'Bomber' Thompson has agreed to step up to the plate and fill Hird's position for 2014. But what can we expect from Essendon? And what cattle does 'Bomber' have to work with?
Let's take a look at the list:
* Players' ages as of Round 1, 2014
Brendon Goddard
Age: 28 Games: 227 Position: Midfield
Crichton medal winner in his first year as a Bomber, Goddard showed his value with a superb year playing mainly through the middle. Can play across half back or closer to goal where he can do damage with his penetrating right boot. Still in his prime.
Dyson Heppell
Age: 21 Games: 62 Position: Midfield
Made a more-permanent switch to the midfield in 2013 and his career continued its upward trend. Won plenty of the ball playing alongside the likes of Jobe Watson and Goddard, as taggers preferred to go to the higher-profile pair. Smart and knows where to get the ball and will only get better in coming years.
Jobe Watson
Age: 29 Games: 173 Position: Midfield
The 2012 Brownlow medallist continues to be the his side's talisman. An inspirational leader and stoppage king who racks up big numbers. Was superb throughout last year's supplements saga, with only a cracked collar bone disrupting his momentum.
* SuperCoach special: Isn't cheap at $601,300, but the skipper is rolled gold. Plenty of contested possessions and uses the ball very well these days.
Jake Carlisle
Age: 22 Games: 49 Position: Defender/Forward
Super-talented big man who can swing either end. After a superb first half to 2013 on the competition's best forwards he tired a little late and had some stints in attack — and showed promise. He's set to go forward on a more-permanent basis in 2014. Can the one-time stopper become his side's go-to man inside 50?
Paul Chapman
Age: 32 Games: 251 Position: Forward
Elite ball user with a deadly right boot. Helped Geelong win a final in his final match in Geelong colours before leaving the blue and white hoops. His body will be managed throughout 2014 but could be one of the recruits of the off-season — especially if the Bombers can go deep into September.
Courtenay Dempsey
Age: 26 Games: 88 Position: Defender
Dempsey provides crucial run and dash off half back. His body let him down last year but his value to the team is enormous. He's one of those 70m players — he can carry it 20-30m and kick it 50m. The Bombers encourage him to attack, and it's hoped much of their rebound from the back half will come from a fit Dempsey this year.
Michael Hibberd
Age: 24 Games: 44 Position: Defender
Breakout 2013 season from the former Frankston VFL player. The stocky defender has come a long way in a short period of time, to be arguably his side's most dependable defender last season. Almost unable to be moved when over the ball, he's a nice user on his left boot and will again form an integral part of the back six.
Patrick Ryder
Age: 26 Games: 149 Position: Ruck
Gaining greater consistency each season, Ryder is asserting himself as the Bombers' No.1 big man. The spring-heeled ruckman can go forward with good effect but with fewer ruckmen on the list, his tap and clearance work will be needed like never before this season.
* SuperCoach special: The $486,400 ruckman will be on the ball a lot in 2014 and, with more consistency in his game, should rack up plenty of points.
Brent Stanton
Age: 27 Games: 203 Position: Midfield
The Bombers' hardest runner is a weapon when his side wins the football at the stoppage, using his running ability to find space. Won more of the footy than any previous season last year (524 disposals) and it takes a good player with a huge engine and good speed to shut him down. Is in his peak.
Jason Winderlich
Age: 29 Games: 112 Position: Forward
Winderlich's career was rejuvenated last season after playing just six matches in 2011/12. Once more of a threat through the midfield, he's transformed into a danger closer to goal and despite injury setbacks has maintained his trademark speed. Provides real x-factor to the Bomber forward line.
David Zaharakis
Age: 24 Games: 87 Position: Midfield
Looks to be getting better and better. The man taken with pick 23 in the 2008 draft won his club's B&F in 2011 and his numbers have remained steady since, while he's having more of a presence around the contest. Is a big-game player (as his Anzac day form suggests) and looks like he could join the class of Watson and Goddard in 2014.
Mark Baguley
Age: 26 Games: 28 Position: Defender
Elevated from the rookie list at the end of 2012, Baguley is becoming more and more comfortable deep in defence. Handed the task of shutting down some of the game's most dangerous small forwards last year and generally did the job well. Is quick and strong.
Tom Bellchambers
Age: 24 Games: 61 Position: Ruck/Forward
Will have a delayed start to the year but the fact he's in red and black is huge, given the outside interest last year. Showed last year he has genuine star potential with his ability to go forward, take a mark and kick a goal. Just needs to completely rid himself of the odd brain fade.
Dustin Fletcher
Age: 38 Games: 378 Position: Defender
Didn't play after Round 20 as injury cut short his 2013 injury, but will take the Bombers' game record outright when he plays his first match this season. Still super agile and able to play on talls or smalls. He's again unlikely to be asked to play on any monsters — as he was earlier in his career — in what will surely be his final AFL season.
Kyle Hardingham
Age: 25 Games: 57 Position: Defender
Versatile, spring-heeled defender who can play at either end. Only had a moderate 2013 so would want to have a more fruitful season to assure his long-term position. Not a big ballwinner. Big season for the athletic utility.
Heath Hocking
Age: 26 Games: 97 Position: Midfield
Has become a solid run-with option for Bombers. Gets the big jobs each week and while his opponents sometimes rack up big numbers, he doesn't completely sacrifice his own game and still offers something. Applies plenty of pressure to opponents and is a ferocious tackler. Among the first picked.
Cale Hooker
Age: 25 Games: 88 Position: Defender
Had his best year in 2013. While he does concede goals, his ability to drop off and lend support to teammates continues to improve. Last year he led the AFL for intercept possessions. Needs to continue his upward curve if the Bombers are to march into September.
Ben Howlett
Age: 25 Games: 76 Position: Forward
High half forward with good goal sense and ability to win the footy. Howlett started with a bang last year before dropping his output as the season wore on. A much-loved player at the Bombers, he works hard and will again play forward with pinch-hitting midfield roles in 2014.
Michael Hurley
Age: 23 Games: 79 Position: Forward/Defender
Forward, back, back, forward? This has been the Hurley conundrum thus far in the former no.5 draft pick's career. Often dogged by injury, he hasn't been able to take hold of matches in attack as the Bombers had hoped. Now, he looks likely to settle in defence — where he starred as a junior and appears most comfortable.
* SuperCoach special: A forward in Nissan SuperCoach in 2014, Hurley won't break the bank at $375,500.
Jake Melksham
Age: 22 Games: 80 Position: Midfield
The silky-skilled Melksham adds polish with his outside run and neat right boot. Enjoyed a strong finish to 2013. With plenty of class in the Essendon midfield, he can often be overlooked and slip underneath opposition guards — but he is a class finisher.
David Myers
Age: 24 Games: 65 Position: Midfield
After a few seasons spent at half back, Myers spent more time in the midfield last year with encouraging results. He is big-bodied but not a natural contested ball winner, preferring to get outside and use his thumping left foot to advantage. It will be interesting to see his continued progress in 2014 and how Mark Thompson uses the former no.6 draft pick.
Tayte Pears
Age: 23 Games: 68 Position: Defender
A key pillar of the Bombers' defence in recent years, Pears has had injury woes during his short career but is entering what should be his best years. He can be found out in genuine one-on-one contests against the competition's best power forwards, but can win the ball and use it well. With Hurley likely to go back and 'Old Man' Fletcher playing on, competition for spots in defence will heat up.
Alex Browne
Age: 21 Games: 8 Position: Defender
In what loomed as a year in which Browne needed to impress the Bombers, the youngster suffered the worst possible luck in his club's NAB Challenge opener — tearing an ACL against the Suns. Eight matches in his first two seasons but none in 2013, he'll have to hope Essendon shows some faith.
Travis Colyer
Age: 22 Games: 34 Position: Midfield
The pint-sized Colyer has battled to find a permanent place in the Bombers' line-up and needs to do so on a more-regular basis in 2014. Often used as a sub, Essendon likes to inject him later in matches for his speed. The West Australian will be hoping to crack permanent starts this year.
Lauchlan Dalgleish
Age: 20 Games: 3 Position: Defender
Elevated off the rookie list last year after playing the final three home and away matches. Super quick left-footer who carries ball well, so he will be encouraged to run and back himself in from the half-back line. Very attacking and will look to work on his defensive side of his game in 2014.
Joe Daniher
Age: 20 Games: 5 Position: Forward/Ruck
The man all Bomber fans are pinning their forward hopes on for the next decade showed glimpses of his prodigious talent in his debut year. Another summer spent in the gym has him primed to make a bigger impact. Mark Thompson will hope Paddy Ryder can stay fit, so as to shield Daniher's young frame from the ruck as much as possible.
Corey Dell'Olio (rookie)
Age: 24 Games: 11 Position: Forward
Promising signs from the 24-year-old in 2013, who showed he knows where the goals are — both at VFL and AFL level. Booted 38 majors at the lowerl level and a goal in each of his three AFL appearances, but it was his increased workrate that most pleased Essendon officials. Big year in terms of his future prospects.
Leroy Jetta
Age: 25 Games: 91 Position: Forward
Jetta can look so smooth at times and a cut above others, yet frustrate just minutes later. Now entering his prime, consistency will be the key for the super-talented small, who only managed eight matches in 2013. Jetta adds another dimension to the Bombers when playing well.
Elliott Kavanagh
Age: 20 Games: 4 Position: Midfield
A first-round draft pick from 2011, Kavanagh will look to find a place in the senior line-up this season. Was tried in run-with roles late last year at VFL level as the Bombers continued to develop his game. Will be bigger and better after another pre-season and should get some game time in 2014.
Nick Kommer
Age: 23 Games: 19 Position: Forward
Proved a handy mature-age recruit in 2013. Lively around and inside the arc, tackles ferociously and enjoys a goal. May find it tougher to hold his place this year as younger players push for a spot but gives the team a spark. Has just signed for a further two seasons in a boost to his long-term future.
Jackson Merrett
Age: 21 Games: 14 Position: Forward
A player on the up after managing 13 matches in the Bombers' strong 2013 line-up. Applied plenty of forward-half pressure during his time at AFL level. Expect him to get more game time and take another step this season as he feels more comfortable at the level. Likely to have more impact near goal.
Nicholas O'Brien
Age: 20 Games: 5 Position: Midfield
Just three matches last season after cracking it for two in 2012. The Bombers are playing him through the midfield in the VFL where he has produced some good numbers. Needs to work on his disposal if he's to jump ahead of some more polished teammates.
Ariel Steinberg (rookie)
Age: 21 Games: 0 Position: Forward/Defender
Making slow progress since first drafted onto the senior list at the end of 2010 with pick 31. Retained on the rookie list for a second season in 2014. Needs to stand out in the VFL if he's to continue his AFL journey.
Jason Ashby
Age: 19 Games: 0 Position: Defender
Second year on the list coming up for the defender/midfielder, who did some nice things at VFL level in 2013. Knows how to find the ball but is likely to again be behind a few in the pecking order this season.
Patrick Ambrose (rookie)
Age: 22 Games: 0 Position: Forward
In the mould of Stewart Crameri, rookie Ambrose (191cm) could be the third tall in the forward line. He has a big tank, works hard and competes fiercely when the ball is in his area. Has lots of talls in front of him so will need things to go his way to crack a senior game.
Kurt Aylett
Age: 21 Games: 1 Position: Defender
Arrives at the Bombers as somewhat of an unknown quantity after being on the Giants list for two seasons. Managed just one AFL match in that time — in 2012. Stands 188cm, so not key-position height. Was a ballwinner at state-league level last year, and has impressed the Bombers in the off-season.
Shaun Edwards
Age: 20 Games: 12 Position: Defender/Midfield
Exciting talent who comes to the Bombers from GWS along with Aylett. Rangy right footer who is very quick and is capable overhead. Played in defence at the Giants but has the ability to play on a wing or in attack if necessary.
Orazio Fantasia
Age: 18 Games: 8 Position: Forward
Asides from possessing arguably the best name in the AFL, Fantasia is a lively small forward who represented SA at last year's NAB AFL under-18 championships, and also played senior footy for Sturt.
Martin Gleeson
Age: 19 Games: 0 Position: Midfield
Gleeson played impressed early in the 2013 season in the Bombers' VFL side before missing the back half of the season with a shoulder injury. A smooth-moving midfielder/forward, he is a nice kick and runs hard. Needs to get stronger.
Sean Gregory
Age: 20 Games: 0 Position: Defender
Bombers rolled the dice with their final pick of the 2012 draft (pick 88) in the hope the 196cm Gregory can develop into something. Spent last season in the VFL and it appears likely he will continue learning his craft in 2014.
Will Hams
Age: 19 Games: 2 Position: Midfield
Emerging midfielder who loves the contest. Played two senior matches last year but is still developing his body and, with added size during the off-season, will look to work his way into the Bombers' engine room on a more-regular basis in 2014.
Zac Merrett
Age: 18 Games: 0 Position: Forward
The younger brother of Jackson is a classy half-forward with explosive speed and a cool head. Merrett starred for the Sandringham Dragons last year, his run and ball use a feature.
Johnny Rayner (rookie)
Age: 22 Games: 0 Position: Midfield
Left-field selection in the mould of Cat Mark Blicavs, Rayner is an exceptional runner. Has a football background but abandoned that in his later teenage years to concentrate on his running — and in particular the 800m where he won a national title. How long will it take for him to rediscover his touch?
Dylan Van Unen
Age: 23 Games: 0 Position: Midfielder/Defender
Another mature-age recruit of Essendon's although Van Unen will need to show something in 2013 to stay on the list.
Fraser Thurlow (rookie)
Age: 21 Games: 0 Position: Ruck/Forward
Mature-age ruckman who suddenly comes into the frame given the injury to Tom Bellchambers. Represented Queensland at under-18 level and has spent the past two years playing in the NEAFL. The Bombers hope he can prove he can cut it with the big boys early.
* SuperCoach special: You don't want all four ruckmen costing plenty. Thurlow is cheap and, while still a rookie, could get game time early in the year with Bellchambers injured. Priced at $118,400 and is dual position.

Books are considered as an integral part of our lives, providing us with wisdom through the words written in them. There was once a time when books were considered a great treasure and anyone who possessed them in abundance was rich. Knowledge is one of the greatest wealth in the world, with a unique characteristic that the more you impart it, the more it will grow. Aside from books, there are many different things that one requires in order to gain knowledge. For students, the basic set of stationery supplies that is required is pen, pencil, eraser, ruler, notebook and many more things. These help the students in maintaining a proper account of what they learned throughout the day, making them more efficient and learned in the future, plus, providing them with a point of reference as well. Major brands like ChocoCraft, The Organic Kitchen, Cello, Chocholik, and ShopMantra have all launched their own stationery products in a bid to capture the market and provide adequate supplies as opposed to the demand. These stationery materials help in creating a brighter future, but they are not meant for students only.

My problem is with my zucchini, I grow it in containers on my sun deck where I have had great success with tomatoes in the past so I thought I would try some zucchini this year along with the tomatoes. To this date, they are doing great except that some of the fruit seems to be rotting on the vine. We have been having a lot of rain the past few days (approx. 4 inches). I thought about spraying with a mixture of antibacterial soap and peroxide. Any suggestions? Thanks for your sudden response.
Hardiness Zone: 6a
Ray from Pittsburgh, PA
Spraying an antibacterial soap isn't necessary until your seeing signs of disease. From what you wrote, it sounds like the leaves and vines on your zucchini are fine (no signs of disease or insect problems), and it's just the fruit rotting on the vine that is the problem. Since your getting fruits, you must be getting flowers. This tells me you're probably just having pollination problems. Is the zucchini rotting from the blossom ends? When young fruit on healthy plants begin to rot from the blossom end, they are usually not getting pollinated properly. This can be due to a lack of bees in the area, or in your case, as a result of adverse weather conditions that may be keeping the bees away.
To get a successful zucchini crop, you're going to have to pollinate the fruit yourself. Pull off the male flower and pull the petals back to expose the pollen-laden stamen. Then carefully rub the male flower on the center stigma of the female flower making sure that the pollen makes good contact. The female flowers have a distinct enlargement directly behind their petals (this is actually the immature zucchini), while the male flowers are often smaller and attached to the vine by just a long, slender stem.Another method is to use a cotton swab to transfer the pollen between flowers. This way is more efficient because you can pollinate up to three female flowers with the pollen from one male. If the rot is starting on the underside of the fruit where it's coming into contact with wet soil, raise the zucchini off the ground with a sling made from pantyhose or prop them up using a tin can or small plastic container to keep them off the soil.
Good Luck!
This is a common problem in climates where there are not enough bees to pollinate the plants. You may have the zucchini in an area where the bees don't bother with it. When the flowers are not cross-pollinated, the zucchini grows but rots at about 4-5 inches long. If you can, take a Q-tip and rub some pollen from one flower to the next when they first open up. Do this several times and the zucchini should then grow properly! (06/30/2006)

Maybe your plants don't have room to grow out like they would in a regular garden, or maybe you've got your soil too wet. We tried the gardening in a bucket a few years back, it was bad. We gave up on the whole idea. The desert winds burnt up our regular garden, this year. (07/02/2006)
By badwater
I am having the same problem and I live in Chester, WV which is not far from Pittsburgh. I want to agree with the weather issue because I have a good size garden and I am only having a problem with the zucchini. I had the same problem last year. I will try the pollination suggestion. If all else fails I pick the blossoms and dip them egg and seasoned flour and fry them or grill them. They are delicious! (07/08/2007)
By sandy
The flowers on the zucchini plant only open in the morning. So if you want to pollinate them yourself you have to do it first thing in the morning. (07/28/2008)

On April 24 and 25, 1992, hard-thinkin', pre-deceased comedian George Carlin performed brilliantly before two full houses at Madison Square Garden's Paramount Theater. Soon after, the performances were cut together and broadcast on HBO as Jammin' in New York. The audio version went on to win the Grammy for Best Spoken Comedy Album in 1993. Carlin spent the next 15 years writing, acting, thinking, performing, winning two more Grammys and three American Comedy Awards, including a lifetime achievement award. Everything seemed to be going fairly well until June 18, 2008, when Carlin was notified that he would be receiving the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor that November. Four days later, he died. Fortunately, Carlin had spent some of his final decade to writing memoirs, and these will be published by Simon & Schuster's Free Press as Last Words on November 17. To celebrate, Jammin' in New York -- Carlin's favorite of his 14 HBO specials -- will screen as part of The Actors' Gang's WTF?! Festival; following the screening, Carlin's daughter, Kelly Carlin-McCall, will answer your questions and read from her father's new book. You will invite me and offer to pay for my ticket, and I will gratefully accept.

On Saturday, December 18th 2004, I received an e-mail from Jada's new owner. It said that he enrolled her into group obedience training classes and she did remarkably well. He was impressed with her learning ability's
HORRAY for JADA!!! Keep up the great work and continue to Make good choices for yourself!!
We are sooooooo happy for you!
Well, as luck would have it (Or I tend to think a Christmas Miracle!) a nice man and his family came down to the shelter today (I had an application on file for another dog that he had applied for but she did not like cats) the man had a cat so I referred him to Jada. He brought his older dog down to the shelter for a play date and he ADOPTED HER!
I pray things work out!
Poor Jada had spent almost one full year at the shelter!
CONGRATULATIONS JADA! Make GOOD CHOICES! WE LOVE YOU!!
LOVE SUE & your pals at the Shelter!!!
Well Jada, don't worry, many of us are still working on finding the perfect home for you.
Like many before you, we are going to make sure when you finally go to your forever home it will be a wonderful home. I just wanted to post this entry into Jada's Diary for all people who have dogs for adoption. ESPECIALLY AMERICAN PIT BULLS/ AMERICAN STAFFORDSHIRE TERRIERS, & PIT BULL MIXES!!
As everyone already knows, please make sure to screen All APPLICANTS carefully. Make sure pre/post home checks are done!!!
Call the person inquiring about adoption vet's office to make sure all their animals are spayed/neutered and up to date on their shots. If it is an out of state adoption, call the person's animal control officer in their town/city and ask if the person has ever been in trouble with them in the past.
This is soooooo IMPORTANT!
One can NEVER BE TOO CAREFUL!!!
We all want to make sure our babies go to great FOREVER HOMES!
Taking a little time and completing these simple tasks can help us sleep easier at night knowing that our animals are placed in great homes because we care!
Happy Holidays!

Greg Osby established himself as one of the regulars of the Blue Note label for 16 years, but in 2008 the innovative saxophonist moved over to the Inner Circle label to release the outing Nine Levels. Working with a quintet that included rising Portuguese vocalist Sara Serpa, Osby turned out an original album that played up his distinctive experimental, free jazz style. Smooth yet curious, album cut "Tolerance" glides with inventive grace.

This Is Why Theyre Hot
Local fans get ready, because the Heat is on! Okay, sorry, but lame wordplay (and Glenn Frey reference) aside, our defending champs are on a serious roll and just might be the hottest team in the NBA right now. Apparently where there is smoke there really is fire.
Thanks to some serious effort and great games by the Diesel, (a.k.a. Shaquille ONeal to us mere mortals), the hometown heroes have won eight of their last ten games and are skyrocketing up the playoff standings. Incredibly enough, theyve done nearly all of this damage without last years NBA Finals MVP Dwyane Wade, whos been out with a shoulder injury. The Toronto Raptors swoop into the American Airlines Arena, and will be looking for an upset behind their all-star Chris Bosh.

Nick Gordon was a film producer who made ground-breaking programmes on the wildlife of the rainforests of Africa and South America. Working on his own, or with a single assistant, he lived for months in arduous conditions, braving heat, insect bites, disease and native rituals to produce films on giant snakes and spiders, alligators, marmosets and otters in their natural habitat. His one-hour documentary Jaguar - Eater of Souls (1999) took seven years to film, and won many awards.
Nicholas Cranber Gordon, wildlife cameraman and film producer: born London 9 May 1952; twice married (two daughters); died 25 April 2004.
Nick Gordon was a film producer who made ground-breaking programmes on the wildlife of the rainforests of Africa and South America. Working on his own, or with a single assistant, he lived for months in arduous conditions, braving heat, insect bites, disease and native rituals to produce films on giant snakes and spiders, alligators, marmosets and otters in their natural habitat. His one-hour documentary Jaguar - Eater of Souls (1999) took seven years to film, and won many awards.
Gordon's life in the jungle made him a modern successor to the explorers and missionaries of the past. His adventures even led to comparisons with Indiana Jones. Once his river boat capsized in a hurricane, but fortunately the wreck was driven on to the bank after colliding with a floating tree-trunk. He had to flee for his life after Liberian rebels attacked the village on Tiwai island in Sierra Leone. In the Amazon he contracted a rare form of malaria from spider-monkeys, and made another hurried exit after failing to cure a baby from whooping-cough.
On another occasion he and his Canadian colleague Rick West found themselves caught up in an inter-village war, and were briefly imprisoned by chanting warriors crazed by a hallucinatory drug before making their escape.
Despite the hardships and dangers, he loved jungle life and became a kind of expatriate "Rainforest Man". Gordon said: "I didn't regard it as threatening or different to the way I feel about walking down Sauchiehall Street on a Saturday night." A colleague, Mike Linley, remembered how, after one particularly successful day's filming, they downed a bottle of Glenmorangie and then treated the forest and their startled Brazilian assistants to a complete performance of The Sound of Music, which both happened to know by heart.
Nick Gordon was born in London in 1952, but his family later moved to Blackpool, where his parents ran a restaurant. Gordon was educated at Lindisfarne College, and trained as a chartered accountant and estate agent. To fund his hobby of underwater filming, he and his first wife, Ann, leased a fish-and-chip shop on Blackpool's Golden Mile. Gordon also talked himself into a part-time job as a news-stringer cameraman for the BBC in Manchester. By then he wanted to develop his fascination with zoology and filming, and the opportunity came in 1985,when he was contracted by an American network to film crocodiles and dolphins in China.
This led to his first commission for the Anglia Television series Survival, to make a film about giant otters in Guyana, and the attempts of the Scots-born Dianne McTurk to create a haven for this and other endangered animals. More films on Amazonia and its extraordinary wildlife followed, including Web of the Spider Monkey (1996), for which he built 150ft-high scaffold-towers to film the animals in the forest canopy, and Gremlins: faces in the forest (1998), his story of the marmosets, the world's smallest primates.
His film Tarantula! (1991), about the giant Goliath Spider, the size of a dinner plate, was also a study of the Piaroa Indians, who both worship and eat the creatures. Gordon bravely underwent the initiation ceremony, which involved eating barbecued spider amidst the mummified corpses of Piaroa ancestors. The Amazonian diet also included monkeys, dogs, snakes and jellyfish - "And nearly everything I have eaten has tried to eat me."
Gordon built a jungle house from fallen timber which he turned into a sanctuary for sick and orphaned animals. His most ambitious film, Jaguar - Eater of Souls, was named after the tribal belief that departed souls are devoured by a jaguar-spirit. The film became another exploration of relationships between man and beast. He used 20 tonnes of scaffolding to build tree-houses, and one memorable sequence of a jaguar and her cubs was filmed from behind the thick glass of a dangling cage, for, in his words, "Mother jaguars don't care for you spying on them."
He adopted two orphaned jaguar cubs, which slept in his hut and clung to him during his morning swim. They also tore all his shoes to pieces and ate his other pet, a boa constrictor. After one of them mauled the leg of Antonieta, his assistant and translator (who later became his second wife), it was decided that they were too dangerous to keep, and a comfortable home was found for them in a wildlife park. The resulting film was the first to show jaguars in the wild, as opposed to captivity or controlled conditions.
After 12 years of living and working in the Amazon, and his health permanently damaged by fever and innumerable animal bites, Gordon decided to spend more time in Britain. He bought a restaurant on the Hebridean island of Mull, and a house near his mother's home in Lytham St Anne's, in Lancashire. He wrote two books about his adventures, Tarantulas, Marmosets and Other Stories (1997) and In the Heart of the Amazon (2002), and was often seen wandering happily about in the cold hill rain, which he found a delicious contrast to the humidity and claustrophobia of the rainforest.
Nick Gordon was six feet four inches tall, with good looks to match. His thirst for finding out more about how animals live, and eagerness to find ways of capturing behaviour on film, placed him in the first rank of wildlife film-makers. He died after a sudden heart attack, in remote country on the border of Venezuela and Brazil.

'Iron Man 3' may be an improvement in the product
Here are some claims veteran screen-writer Shane Black can make for the second movie he has directed: "Iron Man 3" has made lots of money. "Iron Man 3" has sold lots of tickets. And "Iron Man 3" is a better movie than the first two films in the series.
This last, though, isn't much to brag about. "1" and "2" were directed by Jon Faveau (who appears in the new movie as Pepper Potts's bodyguard). He has never proved himself as an action picture director. The very popular first two Iron Man movies were all about Robert Downey's chatty, egocentric title character. What happened around him didn't make all that much difference.
It doesn't here, either. And the story for "3" requires audiences to ignore our usual handicapping of outcomes—in other words, the movie needs compliant rather than a participatory viewers. Guys who sit there trying to figure out if the regenerative process at work in the minions of Aldrich Killian will make those guys any match for the empty robot suits of Stark Industries are not going to enjoy the movie all that much.
Except that they will still like Downey. Black and his writing partner Drew Pearce have given Tony Stark, Downey's character, a list of quotable lines which the popular delivers with comic flare. "Stop stopping." "Where's my sandwich?" Speaking to one of the glowing thugs working for the evil Killian, Stark answers a question by saying, "You tell me, West World."
"Why don't you dress like this at home?" he asks the black bra wearing Potts (Gweneth Palthrow) during one of the action scenes. My favorite came when he had to collect thirteen people who had been sucked out of Air Force One while it was in flight: "Remember the game called Barrel of Monkeys?" The theater crowd laughed aloud at that one. And at most of the others.
His dialog invariably follows what he calls "House party protocol." So it is a surprise when Stark speaks seriously to his girlfriend Potts about the threat posed by The Mandarin. This costumed "super-villain" blows things up and interrupts t.v. broadcasts to taunt and lecture the U.S. government. He also seems to have it in for Stark, whose business builds weapons for the Defense Department.
One of those weapons is the Iron Man suit. He has built a bunch of those. One is for his friend Col. Rhodes (Kansas City's Don Cheadle). Another finds Stark and assembles around him when called.
Attack helicopters working for The Mandarin (who is associated through imagery with Arabs—don't ever think too much during the movie or the fun will be lost) destroy Stark's oceanside home, but he and Potts escape serious harm. While Stark sets off to investigate incidents of high heat explosions, Potts helps an old girlfriend of his to get away from the scene.
At a Tennessee explosion site, Stark is befriended by a ten-year-old kid who inspires a Macguiver-like attack on the Mandarin's lair. But when our hero finds the long-fingernail-wearing t.v. personality, he discovers something unexpected. The Mandarin is played very well, incidentally, by Ben "Ghandi" Kingsley. Guy Pearce (as the wildly made-up Killian) and Rebecca Hall also have good turns.
But their acting only bolsters the illusion that there is something more going on here than loud noises and wry asides. Even as a summer blockbuster, "Iron Man 3" seems like empty calories.
Considering what the first two movies in the series were like, though, "3" also seems like an improvement in the product.

NBC overhauls TV schedule with 12 new scripted shows
By Paul Thomasch
NEW YORK (Reuters) - NBC will attempt to revive its TV schedule by stuffing it with a dozen new shows next season, building a new block of comedy and rolling out a high-profile musical drama from producer Steven Spielberg.
While NBC ordered up a clutch of new scripted series for 2011-12, its schedule will still be anchored by several competition shows returning from this past season, including musical hit "The Voice" and the long-running "Celebrity Apprentice" -- with or without Donald Trump.
NBC Entertainment Chairman Bob Greenblatt, in announcing the new schedule on Sunday, made clear he was impatient to make major changes to a prime-time schedule that has long suffered from poor ratings and failed experiments. Greenblatt took over the job earlier this year.
"I got there right in the nick of time before we had to start picking up drama pilots," Greenblatt said on a conference call. "I'll take ownership of the projects."
Those dramas include "Smash," a midseason musical set on Broadway that will be produced by Spielberg and star Katharine McPhee from "American Idol"; and "The Firm," an update of novelist John Grisham's legal thriller.
NBC's lineup will also feature "Prime Suspect," based on the popular British series, with film actress Maria Bello landing the role as lead detective, and "The Playboy Club," set in a Chicago nightclub in the early 1960s.
"I'd love to make any of these dramas work," Greenblatt said.
After NBC, News Corp's Fox, Walt Disney Co's ABC and CBS, owned by CBS Corp, will introduce their 2011-12 schedules to critics, affiliates and advertisers. Ad sales will then get underway. Continued...

Sonnet X: The History
Long forgotten, yet always remembered.
Lives on for times, then slowly fades away,
It has died, lived, even surrendered,
Only to return at a later day.
Countless myths, battles and legend'ry wars
Had never been recollected in tales
To tell of victories and settled scores,
Hardly remembered by whispered wails.
The past, the present, and the far future,
Was, is, and will be; all are unwritten,
Stayed by the hands of time and liter'ture,
Once lived and breathéd, now gone and smitten.
Whast was, is, and will be stays a myst'ry,
'Till we, too, become forgotten hist'ry.
