The Fendi Spring 2010 Handbags Collection is the very definition of a "mixed bag." Har har, bag pun. I know, it was bad. I'll stop.
Anyway, yes, the bags! Some were amazing – the new soft leather Peekaboos with wood or clear plastic handles were among my favorites, and the addition of exposed stitching, combined with the different handle textures, gives the shape a sense of style that it was missing in its more staid initial iterations. The bags look touchable and a bit vintage, just like the rest of Karl Lagerfeld's breezy, Parisian collection for the brand.
Other standouts were the Perspex beveled clutches, some completely clear, others with slight tints or exterior studding. The bags were, of course, shown with nothing inside of them, and putting anything in them would be kind of a shame, but how else are you supposed to carry them? They were beautiful and a tad whimsical as art objects, and if the stuff you carry inside your clutches is very beautiful, they might be a workable choice.
And on the other hand, some things just didn't work at all. We saw leather totes in a variety of colors with an odd, pansy-embroidered snap-on linen cover that was not only puzzling but also not particularly attractive, and Fendi would have done well to omit those completely and add more of the delicious Peekaboo styles, along with a few of the other wood-framed clutches and bags, to the collection instead. They were almost distractingly bad, but ultimately the preponderance of beautiful bags won out.

I was redirected by someone to Javascript for help, as of right now, no solution was found yet in php section.
Here is what I wanted to achieve, exactly like google did.
1. When visitors come to the website, they see a "set it to my homepage" link
2. After user clicks on that link and confirms, the link will disappear. However, if next time when you visit the site, the homepage is altered, then the link will appear again.
There must be some kind of condition checking in the code. I tried to understand this not-so-complicated page, even set up a redirect page mgyhp.html to direct to index.html, however, no luck in successing. The link appears all the time in explorer even after setting the homepage.

if (!hp.isHomePage('http://www.google.com/')) {document.write("
Make Google Your Homepage!");}

|2015 Scion Tc 9.0 Limited Edition
New York is a close-second, and the first weekend in April is doubly-attractive in the Big Apple with the opening of the New York International Auto Show.
Scion is staging an impressive display at this year's show, keyed to the evolution of the youth-oriented brand.
Forget that--I'm in my sixth decade of orbiting the sun, and I still get excited sitting behind the wheel of a Scion FRS.
Toyota is debuting the FRS 1.0 and Scion Tc 9.0 at the show, featuring all kinds of goodies from Toyota Racing Development (TRD). A special, limited-edition, two-tone version Tc sports coupe is also being released, designed in conjunction with Jeremy Lookofsky of Cartel Customs.
Among the goodies included:
- a unique black and magma exterior
- an aero kit designed by Cartel Customs
- a center exhaust
- a Smart Key with Push Button Start featuring the "Cartel Logo"
- orange front seat belts
No Acronym Zone: We all know the difference between DST and CST--it's an hour's worth of sleep, as my part of the country switches from Central Standard Time to Daylight Saving Time.
I will refrain from further comment about that, but refer you to my annual diatribe here.
So what in the world is DTM?
Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters is the German equivalent of NASCAR, which conjures up all kinds of questions: Do they all make right turns in Europe--you know, on the other side of the road? What's the German language sound like with a Southern drawl? "Guten tag, y'all?" Talk about conflicting culture stereotypes! In an effort to shatter these and other myths about the sport, the DTM has adopted Queen's immortal rock anthem, "We Are the Champions," as it's own for the 2015 racing season.
Returning drivers for the defending Manufacturer's Cup Champion, Audi, are Mattias Ekström, Mike Rockenfeller, and Timo Scheider. Theirs is the only unchanged line-up in the series, and the trio is primed and loaded for the new season. These guys are as passionate about DTM--and Audi--as their American counterparts are about Ford's and Chevy's.
|2015 Audi RS5 DTM
The 2015 Season gets underway in Hockenheim, in the Upper Rhine Valley, the first weekend in May.
Stateside, Audi continues its exposure with the release of a new "Transporter" film, sans Jason Stratham, in June.
I can't wait.
There are some things that would seem to be a crime against nature:
Daylight Saving Time comes to mind (as I beat a dead horse), and allowing ungainly vehicles onto a race track. The Oscar Mayer Weinermobile was recently allowed to run a couple of laps around the course at Mazda Raceway at Laguna Seca.
|No words.
"In less than 48 hours, a Facebook posting of the event showing the Wienermobile traversing the world famous Corkscrew turns reached more than 850,000 people, and garnered 7,147 likes, 538 comments and 2,433 shares," boasted a release. Now put that thing back in the garage.
I don't understand it, but I'll tell you about it.
There's a new Smartcar coming.
|2015 Smart Car for two
A standard crosswind-assist system is also in place for those situations in which a passing 18-wheeler can create a dangerous effect on the 1,808-lb. two-seater.
Mercedes Benz is offering the 2015 version in three trim lines: Passion, Prime, and Proxy. Hopefully it will come with parking instructions.

HANCEVILLE, ALA. -- Wallace State volleyball has been the premier team in the Alabama Community College Conference (ACCC) for the past decade, winning nine consecutive league tournament titles.
The 16th-ranked Lions begin the chapter for a 10th straight championship on Friday, opening the 2018 season at Spartanburg Methodist (S.C.).
"Each season we have different individuals prepared to win championships for us. This year's team should be an exciting one. We have more depth than we did last year, and our freshmen have a tremendous amount of potential. I'm excited about that. The main thing is getting experience under our belt, so we're playing our best at the end of the season," said Wallace State volleyball coach Randy Daniel, who's entering his 12th season with the program.
No matter the roster turnover each season, winning has been a constant for Wallace State volleyball under Daniel, who has compiled a 404-89 career record with the Lions. Wallace State has reeled off 59 consecutive wins in conference matches, an undefeated span stretching four seasons, and won 10 straight regular-season titles.
Wallace State has five sophomores returning from last season's team that went 34-10 and also made a ninth straight appearance at the NJCAA Division I national championship.
Lexie Riggins, Maya Jones, Alex Wiggins, Courtlyn Barber and Katie Edwards return to the fold.
Riggins, a middle hitter from Chelsea, was named the ACCC Tournament MVP last season. She was second in the conference with 393 kills and the ACCC leader with 160 blocks and a .416 hitting percentage.
Jones, a middle hitter from Hoover, was also an ACCC All-Tournament selection. She finished the season with 168 kills.
"Lexie Riggins is ultra-competitive and wants to win on every point, which makes her dependable and consistent. We'll lean on her quite a bit this year," Daniel said. "Maya Jones has improved tremendously since last year. Lexie and Maya are doing well in the middle for us and both are smart players. They go full speed with everything they do and are very coachable."
Wiggins, an Enterprise native, had 288 kills and 279 digs as a freshman, and Barber added 144 digs and 100 kills. Barber is from Westbrook Christian School in Rainbow City.
McKenzie Boland and Madison Turner are sophomore transfers. Boland, a 5-foot-9 setter, played last season for The Citadel in South Carolina. Turner is a libero from Chelsea.
"McKenzie Boland has been a great addition. Her experience is definitely going to be an asset for us," said Daniel, the all-time winningest coach in program history.
Wallace State has 10 freshmen on this season's roster.
Daniel expects Alexis Snow (libero, Danville), Karmahn Hall (libero, Bob Jones), Kaitlyn Doyle (outside hitter, Hernando, Miss.), Madison Rhodes (setter, Helena), Jordan Hollis (opposite hitter, Providence Christian) and Karlee Hale (opposite hitter, Geraldine) to each make strong contributions this season.
"The great thing about coaching is you see all of this potential. Everyone has potential on our team, and it's my job to make sure each player understands their potential. My biggest reward is seeing a player improve from one match to the next or over the course of month," Daniel said. "I'm excited to see how the pieces fall into place. This group has a wonderful work ethic and attitude about getting better. That's pleasant to be around and should translate into success."
Freshmen Genesis Taylor (James Clemens), Kate Kent (Good Hope), Kayla Thomas (Calera) and Kaden Edenfield (Foley) round out the roster. Taylor and Thomas each play libero, Kent is a middle hitter and Edenfield an opposite hitter.
Wallace State opens the season Friday in South Carolina, playing four matches over the weekend.
The Lions dip into conference action immediately after that, traveling to Snead State and Coastal Alabama-South next week.
"We have some of our toughest conference matches on the road right away. We'll be tested, and our freshmen will quickly experience the target we have on the road in the conference," Daniel said. "Everyone will be gunning for us. We can't be intimidated."
Wallace State's home conference opener is Sept. 19 vs. Southern Union. The Lions have three conference matches in a row at home on Sept. 26-28. Oct. 3 and 10 also mark home conference matches.
Wallace State will host the ACCC/Region 22 Tournament on Nov. 2-4.
Kheala Roberts Beck joins Wallace State's staff as a first-year assistant. She played at Wallace State during the 2014-15 seasons, earning All-ACCC first-team recognition during her sophomore season.
"Kheala is a great person to have around our program. She knows what I expect and that's huge. She's a great communicator and gives another person for our players to talk with," Daniel said.
Picture: Members of Wallace State's volleyball team are, front row, from left, Lexie Riggins, Maya Jones, Katie Edwards, Alex Wiggins, assistant coach Kheala Roberts, head coach Randy Daniel, manager Macy Green, Madison Turner, Courtlyn Barber and McKenzie Boland; back row, from left, Genesis Taylor, Madison Rhodes, Karlee Hale, Jordan Hollis, Kaden Edenfield, Kate Kent, Kaitlyn Doyle, Karmahn Hall, Kayla Thomas and Alexis Snow.

Rome's famed pasta dish.
With and endless amount of authentic Italian cuisine, choosing a favorite is a bit unfair. Similar to having to pick one Mexican, French and so on. I'm talking about "authentic" not an Americanized version but what you would eat when in that country, that they are also famous for.
Of all the countries I've had the pleasure to eat in, Italy reigns supreme, making it even more difficult to narrow down that one dish, that no matter what, I have to order when there. But there is one, and it also is one of the most simple dishes of all, but don't let simplicity fool you. It's called CACIO E PEPE. It's a true Roman pasta dish, though found through out Italy.
Cacio e Pepe basically translates to cheese and pepper. It contains three simple ingredients… black pepper, Pecorino Romana (a salty, hard cheese, usually grated, made from sheep's milk & originally from Rome) and pasta (preferably a thin, long pasta such as spaghetti, vermicelli etc). But don't let the name, nor the three ingredients be taken lightly. Because it's flavor is unique and complex when prepared correctly. That preparation also, is simpler said than done. As all through Rome, you will have different chefs tell you how it's to be prepared, let alone all through Italy. But the old school way, what history has shown and for example, renown Roman chef, Davide Sagliocco of Ristorante Borgo Antico, told me in an interview (which I'll post his recipe with that article soon)… that when combining the three ingredients, it's important to add a little of the hot pasta water. Which not only helps melt the cheese, but the starch from the pasta in the water helps to bind the pepper and cheese to the pasta. You will find many chefs, professional and amateur, use olive oil, cream and other ingredients. But as said, the true way is the black pepper, Pecorino Romana cheese and pasta.
My wife and I were fortunate in our travels through Italy to consume almost as much Cacio e Pepe as we did pizza, we never had a bad plate of it, where as the same can't be said about a slice of pizza. But then pizza can be grabbed everywhere in Italy as it can here in the States, but you "usually" have to find a place to sit down when ordering pasta. Our first meal in Rome, which was also our first stop in Italy, we enjoyed great Cacio e Pepe, and almost our last meal in Venice was the same. Thank you Italy. I say that because for such a Roman and Italian staple, it's almost impossible to find here in America. This must change if I ever have any influence on the American food culture, lol.
Back to those simple ingredients again. When prepared the right way, you are opening your taste buds to not only incredible flavor, but a taste of what Rome, and Italy has to offer. There's a reason dishes like this have been prepared there for a couple thousand years, yes, a couple thousand years, not just a couple hundred. They enjoyed it in ancient Rome and today it's just as popular. So when you sit down for your first bite to eat in Rome, don't let the word pizza roll off your tongue, make sure it's Cacio e Pepe.

Laurenz L Sonnentag, Anna Kraus, Mahdy Ranjbar, Julia Lueke, Salvatore Grisanti, Aysegul Tura; Outcomes of quercetin treatment on the metastatic profile of a uveal melanoma cell line. Invest. Ophthalmol. Vis. Sci. 2017;58(8):3966. doi: https://doi.org/.

Purpose :
To evaluate the efficacy of the dietary flavonoid quercetin on suppressing the viability, proliferation, and migration of the uveal melanoma cells as well as the expression of major proteins involved in metastatic activity.
Methods :
Cultures of 92.1 cells were incubated with quercetin at a concentration range of 1-100 µM. Viability was analysed by the MTT-test, Live-Dead staining, and TUNEL-assay. Cell proliferation was assessed by BrdU incorporation and Ki-67 immunostaining. Migration was analyzed by the wound healing assay. Protein expression was analysed by immunocytochemistry and -blotting.
Results :
Quercetin resulted in a dose-dependent reduction in cell proliferation, survival, and migration, with the effects becoming significant (P<0.05) from 25 µM onwards. Quercetin also interfered with the expression of the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor on the cell surface, possibly by preventing the upregulation of the transcriptional coactivator YAP-1 in the nucleus.
Conclusions :
These findings demonstrate the efficacy of quercetin as a novel therapy alternative for suppressing the metastatic potential of uveal melanoma cells.

|27 Jan 2014
Helena appeared on RIX FM's morning programme "MorronZoo" earlier today where she gave an interview to Markoolio, Adam Alsing and Brita Zackari. This is what she said;
After a brief introduction telling all of the listeners about Helena's career and achievements thus far, Fredrik looks forward to Saturday where Helena will compete in the first heat of Melodifestivalen 2014 with the song "Survivor." Helena said that she felt more nervous after hearing her age than the thought of competing in the Melodifestivalen. She then said that she likes to get older and become more mature. She likes to stand on her own feet more now than she could when she was 23 (when she last competed in Eurovision and won with "My Number One"). Markoolio likens Elena to a vine as she "gets better and better over the years." They then spoke briefly about her debut hit "Opa Opa" with duo Antique back in 1999.
When asked to talk about her song "Survivor," Helena confirms that it will be a mid-tempo ballad but she is sad because due to the rules of "Mello" she is not allowed to sing the song before Saturday. She cannot wait for Saturday when she can sing it freely. On her chances of winning, Helena said that she hopes everyone will win and that it is a healthy competition and that everyone is there to have fun. Regarding her outfit, Helena said that the dress will be long and black and you will see her legs. There will be glitter on her dress and on the stage.
You can listen again to the interview by clicking here.
RIX FM is one of Sweden's most popular radio stations with a high listenership.

whoop- we should start a hanger rehab ;) xxDelete
Oh you put me to shame - most of my hangers are the ones they give you in Primark!! Must put my copper spray paint to good use this weekend - thanks for the inspiration, absolutely love your DIY posts!ReplyDelete

haha I swear this was me too!!! I gave up and ordered 100 wire hangers so I could throw the rest away ;) xxDelete
This is such a great idea! Quick question now that it's been a while - did the spray paint fall off/stain the clothes? <33ReplyDeleteReplies
Hey! No not at all- no flaking or staining as long as you let them dry before you hang clothes on them. just make sure you spray only metal hangers- the spray paint doesn't cover/dry as well on plastic coated hangers! :) xDelete
where did you get the gold wire hangers from? Great Post

does the colour from the paint transfer onto your clothes?ReplyDelete
Such a great idea! You're so genius, admire all your DIY posts. I was wandering where did you get the copper spray? Does it need to be this particular brand?ReplyDelete
thanks for stopping by- I love reading your comments! I'll always reply so check back in a few days if you've asked me any questions x

A retro 'ThinkPad Classic' could be a killer laptop not crippled by insane … – ZDNet
Having used IBM ThinkPad laptops for a decade or so, I'm ready to join SJVN in the queue for a "classic" version, if Lenovo chooses to make one. However, Lenovo – which bought IBM's PC business in 2004 – still makes laptops that are instantly recognisable as ThinkPads. How can it bring back something that never went away?
Lenovo's ThinkPads still sport the traditional livery – black with red highlights – so the real question is trickier: what have ThinkPads lost that we used to love about them?
The main feature for writers was, obviously, a high quality keyboard. Other traditional ThinkPad features included matt 4:3 screens, TrackPoint pointing devices, removable extended-life ("fat") batteries, and rugged construction. The less-well-liked feature was the inevitably high prices.
My first love was a British-built ThinkPad 240X, second in a line that appeared in 1999. This was a 2.9lb ultraportable with a 10.4-inch screen, no floppy drive and no optical drive. Mine ran Windows 2000 on a Mobile Pentium III. Apple didn't introduce its similar 13in MacBook Air for another eight years – a lifetime in computing terms. Of course, by then, ultralight ThinkPad X users had moved on through the X31 or X41 to the X61, followed by the X200 and X300 in 2008. The last in this classic line was the X220, launched in 2011.
The 240X obviously had a very limited specification by today's standards: an 800 x 600-pixel screen, only 64MB of memory (I added the maximum 128MB upgrade), no USB ports (it had a CardBus slot for accessories), and no Wi-Fi (it had a 56k modem built in).
But it did have a terrific keyboard with real keys, even though it was slightly smaller than full size. You could type on it for hours. Indeed, the Chinese-made keyboards in next decade of ThinkPad X laptops, right up to the X220, were also very good. This is not to claim I used all of them, but Lenovo only changed the fundamentals when it switched to using thin keyboards with the X230 and X1 Carbon line.
And we all know that, in the real world, you can either have a great keyboard or a thin keyboard, but not both.
I'd also vote for the re-introduction of interchangeable "fat batteries" so you can carry a spare. A decade ago, I could fly from London to Seattle, changing planes in Chicago, and still have more than enough power for the bus into town from SEATAC. (It's not a route I recommend, but I did it, so I know.)
Lenovo knows how to do this stuff. The X220 could run for up to 23 hours with the 9-cell battery and a snap-on external battery. In fact, with removable batteries, you could choose whether you wanted extra weight or extra power. The 3-cell battery provided about four hours of continuous web surfing, while the 6-cell battery lasted almost eight hours and the 9-cell "fat battery" ran for 12 hours 39 minutes. This was six hours longer than the 13in MacBook Air (2010) on the same test.
So, I think the X220, rather than the older X300, would be a good choice to form the basis of a "ThinkPad Classic". It already had Intel Core iX (Sandy Bridge) processors, up to 8GB of memory, USB 3.0, HDMI, SSD drives and Windows 7 in a package that weighed "from 3lbs (1.3kg)". It may be old, but it still beats many current machines.
The X220 would obviously need its 12.5-inch screen upgrading from 1366 x 768 pixels to 1920 x 1080 or, for preference, 1920 x 1200, which is 16:10. Make it thinner, chuck in a modern low-TDP Broadwell processor, a 16GB memory option, and a few other tweaks and it would be good to go.
The X220 Classic would not, of course, be the thinnest laptop around, but neither would it have their horrible limitations. I'd rather have the superior keyboard, fast processor and long battery life than save a few millimeters.
Speed, battery power, expandability, repairability and light weight all have tangible business benefits. Thinness doesn't: it's just a marketing concept. Extreme thinness is crippling and should be considered harmful.

A Notary Public's Role In The Justice System
By Joseph P. Johnson
Notaries Public are usually appointed by an office within the state government where they reside. In Florida it's the Governor's Office. The main duty of a notary is to witness signatures on documents of a legal or financial nature. Some documents require the notary to administer an Oath attesting to the validity of the document & the signer's signature also known as a "Seal".
One of the vital duties of a notary is to positively identify the signer of any documents or legal instruments. My experience as a former NYC Police Officer has taught me how to identify fake identity documents.
The most common fake identity document presented is a driver's license. My knowledge of counterfeit licenses affords me the expertise to thwart frauds and con artists. Since a driver's license is a government issued certificate using it illegally can constitute a felony charge. Actually any official government issued document used in a fraudulent manner would constitute a felony. On more than one occasion I have been called to a location and found the person wanting to have a document signed is not the actual person the document is intended for. Since I can be held civilly and possibly criminally liable for an improper document I have refused service.
As a Private Investigator I accept assignments from insurance companies and law offices to investigate claims of accidents and crimes. My job is to obtain the facts of the case, but NOT to determine innocence or guilt. Every investigation involves interviewing claimants, defendants and witnesses. Usually, at the direction of the attorney or the insurance adjuster, I am tasked to obtain a sworn signed & notarized statement as to the circumstances surrounding the claim or the crime. Down the road these sworn statements can be used as exhibits in a court proceeding. In the past I have had to testify to the validity and authenticity of statements I have taken. If it turns out the person who swore to the statement lied it is a possibility that person could be held civilly and criminally liable under perjury laws.
On one occasion I was called to a local hospital to notarize a Power of Attorney for a man who claimed to be the son of a patient. Upon arriving I was met by a man who claimed his father needed to sign a POA (Power of Attorney) so he could access bank accounts and other financial accounts. I explained to the son I would have to interview and question the father to determine his frame of mind, if he was competent to understand what the document is he was signing.
I explained to the son I would need to do this alone. His response to me over that requirement was what started the hair to stand up on my neck. He insisted that he be present in the hospital room when I questioned his father. I reiterated that was not going to happen. At this point I decided to find out from the hospital social worker what was known about this patient and family situation without violating any HIPPA Laws.
I spoke to the social worker who told me the patient has been in the hospital for 6 months and never once did anyone ever come to see him. In the last few days the man claiming to be his son showed up with legal papers. At this point the social worker told me to go talk to the father and I will learn everything I need to know. I entered the room alone and found a man who looked disheveled and somewhat delusional. After a brief conversation in which I was told the President of The United States was Abraham Lincoln and the date was July 4th 1965, and I was his son, I concluded this man was NOT Compos Mentis.
I met with the son outside the room in the hallway and informed him I would not notarize the documents because his father was not, in my opinion, able to understand what he was doing. This did not sit well with the son who stated the papers were drawn up by the family attorney and he wanted them signed by his father. I informed him to have the attorney come to the hospital and notarize the documents, or contact the State of Florida Elder Affairs and have a guardian assigned to see to his affairs. This was not what he wanted to hear and stormed off.
I went back to the hospital social worker and updated her. I suggested she call the hospital administrator to notify the appropriate authority as to what had transpired. Some weeks later I was called by the social worker who told me the man was not his son but a distant relative looking to gain control over the man's bank accounts. And after all that I was not paid for my time…LOL

Eight Months of Salad
I am feeling proud, bordering on smug, about the salad I am eating this month. My fall crop of trout lettuce—so named for its showy pattern of burgundy flecks on bright green leaves—came from seed I harvested several months ago. I'd grown a spring crop of trout lettuce from seed that I bought from the Hudson Valley Seed Library (HVSL).
When my spring crop of trout lettuce produced little white seeds in the heat of summer, I shook the stalks into a bag to capture the seeds and then, on September 1, I sowed them for a fall crop. So there've been two generations of the beautiful speckled leaves this year, which feels like a coup that nature and I have pulled off, given the merciless weather. I interplanted arugula with the lettuce and theorize, perhaps naively, that that spicy crop has helped deter the resident woodchuck who dashed my salad dreams in the past.
Whereas I am new to the serious study of extending the window of greens growing, Jaimee Uhlenbrock, a retired SUNY art history professor, has been doing this for years, at home and in the New Paltz Gardens for Nutrition. Most years, she harvests lettuce for her Thanksgiving meal. She harvests spinach until almost that late, and kale even later. As secretary for the long-standing community garden, she sends out periodic encouragement to garden members to start earlier in the spring and grow later in the fall.
Her secrets include raised beds filled with good rich fluffy soil and the unconventional use of a wood plank to keep seeds in place and moist until they germinate. (How they do so without light, I don't know—but it works like gangbusters, people—I've seen it.) She grows many different heirloom and modern hybrid varieties this way.
"Before I used this method, I had such uneven germination," she says. "The soil would dry out too fast or the seed and soil would wash away too easily." Now she sows swaths of lettuce and kale seed, covers them lightly with soil, pats them down, waters with the lightest touch, and covers with the board. As soon as she can see evidence of germination above the soil, the board comes off.
In the springtime, she plants lettuce and other greens just as soon as the soil can be worked in March—and this where raised beds give her an advantage, because the elevated soil in raised beds warms earlier than field soil. Lettuce seed is slower to germinate in very early spring than in the warm temps of summer. Uhlenbrock sows every two weeks until late September. By the time of Hurricanes Irene and Lee, which decimated the gardens, she was into her 15th planting. All the gourmet salad eating she and her partner Bob had done up to that point was a consolation.
What Say the Producers?
For fall greens, seed sowing timing is key. The HVSL's Doug Muller points out a common misconception about fall greens growing. "To have fall or winter greens, you have to sow them in September," he says. "Planting in October will give you baby greens only. If you plant in November, you won't see any action at all until February. They'll just sit there—that's fine if you want really early greens in March or April—but some people are disappointed when they read the packet and it says '50 days to maturity.' That's 50 days in the ideal conditions of spring, not the waning light and temperatures of fall."
Muller and his partner Ken Greene grow greens in the field late into fall, then turn their attention to growing especially hardy greens like mustard and mache (pronounced "mosh") in their unheated hoop house (plastic-sided greenhouse). Greene wishes that mustard greens had more appeal. "I think it's off-putting to some Americans, too suggestive of condiments. For a while I was marketing mustard greens as 'Spicy Library Lettuce,' and sales improved! We put young leaves in sandwiches and salads … give it a try—we love it."
I asked Greene what they eat for greens in January and February, when their unheated hoop house greens start to look weary (in March, the greens start to perk up again). He says, "We are so lucky to have winter markets and CSAs like Winter Sun in our region, where we can buy greens and support our fellow farmers."
One of those compadres is Jay Armour of Four Winds Farm in Gardiner. He has his own approach to greens season extension: digging up kale and Swiss chard plants in October and transplanting them to an unheated hoop house. He picks greens until March or April when he needs the space for the new season's crops. And then he goes one step further: "This past year we moved the kale back outside in early April, so the plants would produce seed, which I collected and gave to the Hudson Valley Seed Library," he says. It's all very Circle of Life.
You may not be ready to invest in a big plastic hoop house yet, but what can you do on a home scale?
Stick with the Outdoors
Many of your hardier greens will overwinter and reseed if you don't pull them out in the fall. Then there's extremely late seeding, helped along with a little cover. Commenter Eileen Gunning on the HVSL blog says, "Every year, as a sort of ritual, I plant spinach seeds on Thanksgiving day. Yes, the ground is often frozen. I cover with a straw mulch. In early February, or whenever the snow starts to melt, I have a beautiful spinach harvest. In the 16 years I have been doing this, only one year—when we had only ice, no snow—did I not have spinach."
Row Covers
Floating row covers like Reemay are cloth products that "float" above the crops. Because they are so lightweight, they don't need wire support to keep from crushing plants, you can leave them on all the time, and they allow light and water through their pores. Fabric row covers provide about four degrees of frost protection, which is often enough to extend the life of greens well past several light frosts in the fall and to protect crops early in the spring. Row covers are also often used as a barrier to insect predation.
Low Tunnels
At the HVSL, Greene and Muller started out simply bending heavy-gauge wire into supports that they would throw sheets over, being sure to pull them off the coverings in the morning. They graduated to using low tunnels made of clear greenhouse plastic with sides that roll up. Plastic gives them many more degrees of frost protection than floating row covers or sheets. "Conduit is cheap," Greene says, "so we make our own hoops with a bending tool."
Cold Frames
Cold frames insulate crops from too-cold air and soil temperatures and provide wind protection. There's a great plan for a simple cold frame on the HVSL site, filed under "Seed Starting 101." For about $120 in materials, you can build a long-lasting structure that you can use for seed starting but also to grow spinach, tatsoi, scallions, and mache through the winter.
Doug Muller says that when winter looms, "this stops many gardeners in their tracks, shifting their attention from sowing and transplanting and cultivating to harvesting and getting inside—quick. The wise gardener sees this impulse, honors it, and then—despite the increasing dark and cold—keeps on sowing."

Bioinformatic analysis of chicken chemokines, chemokine receptors, and Toll-like receptor 21
MetadataShow full item record
Chemokines triggered by Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are small chemoattractant proteins, which mainly regulate leukocyte trafficking in inflammatory reactions via interaction with G protein-coupled receptors. Forty-two chemokines and 19 cognate receptors have been found in the human genome. Prior to this study, only 11 chicken chemokines and 7 receptors had been reported. The objectives of this study were to identify systematically chicken chemokines and their cognate receptor genes in the chicken genome and to annotate these genes and ligand-receptor binding by a comparative genomics approach. Twenty-three chemokine and 14 chemokine receptor genes were identified in the chicken genome. The number of coding exons in these genes and the syntenies are highly conserved between human, mouse, and chicken although the amino acid sequence homologies are generally low between mammalian and chicken chemokines. Chicken genes were named with the systematic nomenclature used in humans and mice based on phylogeny, synteny, and sequence homology. The independent nomenclature of chicken chemokines and chemokine receptors suggests that the chicken may have ligand-receptor pairings similar to mammals. The TLR family represents evolutionarily conserved components of the patternrecognizing receptors (PRRs) of the innate immune system that recognize specific pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) through their ectodomains (ECDs). TLR's ECDs contain 19 to 25 tandem copies of leucine-rich repeat (LRR) motifs. TLRs play important roles in the activation of pro-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines and modulation of antigen-specific adaptive immune responses. To date, nine TLRs have been reported in chicken, along with a non-functional TLR8. Two non-mammalian TLRs, TLR21 and TLR22, have been identified in pufferfish and zebrafish. The objectives of this study were to determine if there is the existence of chicken genes homologous to fish-specific TLRs, and if possible ligands of these receptors exist. After searching the chicken genome sequence and EST database, a novel chicken TLR homologous to fish TLR21 was identified. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the identified chicken TLR is the orthologue of TLR21 in fish. Bioinformatic analysis of potential PAMP binding sites within LRR insertions showed that CpG DNA is the putative ligand of this receptor.

I have studio 1555 with company installed windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.Now i want to uninstall win 7 and install fresh Win XP Pro (no need any other OS including win 7).
When I try to install XP Pro with the bootaable cd(32 bit) first it loads installation driver files but on starting installation it shows BLUE SCREEN ERROR ask me to restart the system and do scan disk.Kindly help me...
Whenever I wanted to go from Vista to XP, I formated my hard drive from DOS then booted from XP and installed.
Maybe this could work for you but make sure your XP CD is bootable from DOS.

Why would you want to go backwards from Windows 7 to XP???
I have used Windows XP on many machines since 2002 and in general I was satisfied with it (windows 95 was new to me but easy to learn - way back when - windows 98 was a good refinement on it, more secure and generally faster. Windows ME was a disaster. Windows XP was a giant leap forward and a good system though it had many holes that constantly needed plugging (constant updates). Vista - not quite as bad as many would like you to believe - BUT it was half baked - a Rush job - more secure but very annoying for many. NOW Windows 7 arrives! This is what Vista should have been!! It is fast, secure, and on new hardware, easy to install and run. Windows 7 has some quirks that you will get use to and FINALLY fully supports 64bit computing (on programs written to take full advantage of it, blazingly fast). Most programs that ran on XP are running fine on 7, of course I downloaded the latest version of my AntiVirus/AntiMalware program and I would recommend the same for most utilities you use that are not already included in windows7.
IF you are having problems with Windows 7, first look into hardware: You appear to have 448MB RAM according to your spec's but Windows 7 32bit needs 1GIG RAM and runs better on 2 GIG's; 64bit NEEDS 2GIG's RAM and runs better on 3GIG's or more (I built with 4GIG's with Home Premium 64bit) <<To prevent system Mfg's from short-changing people, I would recommend that Windows 7 start with a warning "You have less than the recommended memory installed on your system! It will run anyway, but performance will suffer!" under conditions like yours.>>
IF you need to run work related software that will not run normally under windows7, you should consider Windows 7 Pro and download XP compatibility software from Microsoft. IF you have favorite software or games that will not run, look into newer versions of them, they will probably have other improvements included as well as additional compatibility.
ASSUMING based on your RAM, you are probably running off the motherboard graphics, If you use graphics intensive software or games, consider adding a good video card as well as 4 GIG's of RAM or more.
ALL that said, there may not be drivers available for your newer hardware for XP and it definately will not be on a 2002 version disk of XP. IF you can collect all of your drivers on a floppy disk (if you have one) as your XP disk will not support finding them on a USB source OR you will have to remake your XP disk with the drivers on it (others would have to tell you how to do that). THEN you will have to make sure that your CD/DVD drive is first in boot order to load it. --- NOT worth the trouble for a system that will be obsolete in a few years at best. I doubt that MS will support XP with additional updates for much more than that.
Summary: Try a few UPGRADES first before trying a DOWNGRADE!!!
*** MY OPINION of course***
Put Win 7 back on and use VMplayer or other VM to run XP.

Les Paul (1915-2009)
Not really a wise move to put Windows XP back on a system like yours.
1. Windows XP Pro can't take advantage of multi-cores. Now it can see multi-cores but can't take advantage of it. Windows 7 can take advantage of multi-cores.
2. Windows XP is now legacy meaning no other updates beyond security updates.
3. Windows 7 has better battery life then Windows XP which is important to you considering you have a laptop.
Windows XP was great for it's time but unless you run an old system or your system came with XP, there is no reason to downgrade from Windows 7 to Windows XP.
Iron Sharpens Iron.
Ok I may be a bit off the mark here. Please all of you more knowledgable than I say so if I am. Let's work backwards here. The mesage suggesting scan disk, seems to me you are getting this due to compatibility issues between the 2 operating systems 1 being 64 bit and the other 32 bit. I have seen this before of 1 installation over another. At the time someone assumed Xp is Xp and any disk would do. They tried to reinstall XP Pro 64 over Xp Home thinking it was the same thing and that their cd key would make the difference. They got that message. You need to completely remove windows 7 before trying to load XP. You should be able to do this after putting the XP cd in you should get an option to set up XP , repair XP , or Quit. You want to set up XP. Select the partition that has Win 7 on it and delete it. Hopefully you have already backed up anything needed. Then you set up a new partition. You can use the full disk or make smaller partitions whatever you like but a partition must be set up none the less. After setting the partion select it to load XP to. Then you must format that partition. You can format it Fat 32 but I recomend using NTFS and just a personal preference I don't use quick format no reason though that I know of just preference. After that it should copy the files and start the installation.
I have no doubt I missed the mark I just interpreted the OP to say he had not formatted the drive. So I assumed 7 was still there. From this I thought maybe the OP didn't know. I do agree about keeping 7 though unless this system is purely for business which the poster already has the programs to use XP and can not at the moment upgrade what they have for 7. Hope this helped.
I want to go like my grandfather did. Peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming at the top of my lungs like the passengers in his car.
The problem to me would be that XP doesn't support his much newer hardware. Even slipstreaming may be of little use.
Windows 7 is very good, I guess we would need to know why he wants XP.. A Virtual Machine running XP to me would make sense if the reasons for XP can be fulfilled.

Brothers First I Thank U very much for u r suggestions.I come to a conclusion not to uninstall win 7.I need to resize my partitions.In my 320 GB sata HD i have 146 GB in C:drive and 142 GB free space others are in recovery and OEM.
I decided to allocate 50 Gb for C:/ but when i try to Shrink it shows that the Size of available Shrink space is only 203 mb out of 149934 mb .And the extend Volume Option is disabled.Is it possible for me to have 5-6 partitions each around 50 GB without reinstallation.If I can do through 3rd party software,Pls suggest me the best free partition softwares.
Is it possible to have XP on D:/ drive with win7 on C:/
System Details:
Dell studio 1555,Win 7 Home Premium,3 GB RAM,core 2 duo Pro'r,320 GB HD
Yes you can have 7 on C: and XP on D:
I want to go like my grandfather did. Peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming at the top of my lungs like the passengers in his car.
I have never used free partition managers while windows was installed so I can not answer that sorry.
I want to go like my grandfather did. Peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming at the top of my lungs like the passengers in his car.
You will have problems with installing XP on a system that has Win 7 installed. Trying to run an install for dual-boot will fail since the OS you are installing is older than the one you have on the system.
You would have to run a clean XP install, modify the drive partition size and then reinstall Win 7 to get the dual-boot on the same hard drive.
It appears that the Studio laptop has the drivers for XP which most vendors are not providing any XP support.
I installed Xp on D: after installing 7 on my C: drive without a problem. Both were 64 bit but I wouldn't think it would matter. Later I made changes to give myself C: and D: on hard drive 1 and E: and F: on Hard drive 2 and put 7 on C: and Xp on E: with D: and F: used for other storage for each adjacent OS. I am not sure I can call it a true dual boot as they are not both on my C: drive and they never run at the same time. Now i am using E: to expiriment with Linux. I have had 7 on C: XP on D: and Mint 6 on E: all on the same single hard drive without any issues at all.
I want to go like my grandfather did. Peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming at the top of my lungs like the passengers in his car.
I agree with jefro: Don't do it!
At any rate, if you must have XP, then go the dual-booting route. And what is your compelling reasoning behind wanting to have five or six 50GB partitions?
Response 2 IMO had the best solution about upgrading ram etc.
Some HELP in posting on Computing.net plus free progs and instructions Cheers
System Details:
Dell studio 1555,Win 7 Home Premium,3 GB RAM,core 2 duo Pro'r,320 GB HD
Bootit NG allows more than 4 primary partitions and includes a boot manager that should allow you to windows 7 back live after installing XP. It is a try-it then pay for it tool. I downloaded it and spent much time reading up on, it sounds very useful, but in the end, replaced the system anyway without using it.
Don't short change your C drive though since many programs do not always give you the option of installing on other drives.

The art of management is to manage, control, coordinate and make the optimal utilization of resources with maximum efficiency. It is a process by which individuals must form groups and work as combined units in achieving their common goals. However, in many cases the irony is that in most places, those who preach management themselves do not practice it. One of the most important factors for efficient management is having a person who has good leadership qualities.
In most institutions leaders are created by virtue of their position and rank. However, the most effective and followed managers are those who have a charismatic and magnetic personality and those who lead by example. Sometimes organizations hire managers who are unable to take responsibility which causes unfavorable results. Another example is of professors teaching management subjects in business schools. If the teacher is knowledgeable and has the quality of retaining the attention of students, then forced attendance of the students in classrooms, which is a case in most institutions, is avoided. Another area of management which is being misused and misinterpreted is ethics. The main example is the Indian political system and the Indian bureaucracy, which is suppose to lead the nation by its administration leadership, is unfortunately corrupt and performs unethical duties. Since the leaders are unwilling to take responsibility and go for short cuts in finding solutions, it leads to failure of the organizational machinery. Similarly, in many major marketing companies too, the senior management preaches bribery and unethical ways in order to get clients and business. In educational institutions, there is lack of transparency between the management and the students, which often leads to conflicts and problems. Similarly, lack of transparency also causes problems between trade unions, factory workers and senior management, which is a case of ineffective management on the part of the senior hierarchy.
An example of management sometimes being cynical is the quote below-
"Organizations cut trees, make paper and print on it 'SAVE TREES'"!
Therefore, in many places there exists a problem where management is unable to practice the morals and methods which they teach. This may lead to gains for a shorter period, but in the long run it may prove disastrous. Thus, in order to be successful, senior management in any institution must be clean and transparent by avoiding mismanagement, and most importantly, practice what they preach.

I live in Boston, a city I love, have Midwest roots, growing up in Wisconsin and going to school at the U of W before starting my working career in department store retail in Chicago. It was in Chicago that I was awed by the new store Crate&Barrel, loved the environment, thought everyone working there was 'cool', and the new philosophy of bringing great design to the home at an affordable price to customers. I was part of the C&B family. I joined as the first management trainee in 1971, and had the fortunate opportunity to contribute to the growth of the brand for 42 years. I finished my career with 'Crate" this summer and now ready for new discoveries. I've built a retail business, created people's careers, have good taste and can throw a major party in a nanosecond. Today, I leverage the lessons of my decades of success in retail to advance the people and causes I care about with warmth, passion, and vision.
I consider myself a thought leader and agent of change. I am passionate about all that is new, as now I have time to discover more that I have not had time for in the past. I love learning about new things, meeting new people, exploring, as I am an optimistic believer in all that is possible. My approach has been with intensity for whatever I am doing, thrive on challenge and want to inspire. I am a keen shopper, eat challenges for breakfast (on gorgeous plates) and always excited about what comes next. I hope to be involved and contribute in ways to advance careers of people I care about, and inspire women to exceed their potential.
My mantra: ponder it, plan it, do it, share it, and enjoy it.
For the past 15 years I have written 'Carol's Communique' on a weekly basis and had 150 followers within Crate&Barrel. It was informative, personal, celebratory, and upbeat. My community of followers encouraged me to continue the weekly dialogue in the format of a blog so bear with me as I start the journey of what in the world is Carol doing now? I encourage you to send me comments and material that you also find interesting . I will share my favorite blogs, and we can all learn together.

Backpackers – protect yourself against passport scams
If you're heading off on an around the world trip this year please read our tips or precautions you can you take when being asked for ID or your passport by someone who claims to be an official.
There have been reports that in some countries, criminals act as official police in order to either steal your ID/ passport or bribe you. We have compiled some tips to guard yourself against identity theft. Look at your location first of all. Are you in an airport, border crossing, checkpoint or anywhere where an official would have reason to check your passport? If so then it is much more likely to be genuine.
Assess the official asking you for your passport, military and police uniforms are very distinctive, and these officials are often armed. If someone is just wearing jeans and a t-shirt, then it is much less likely to be genuine.
If you're trip involves overnight travel on a bus or train that crosses country borders, it's worth showing the a photocopy of your passport and visa page – of course have your original documents to hand to show if the officials are legitimate.
Another thing to remember is that hoteliers often ask to see your passport, keep hold of it, or make sure your passport is in sight. Do not let them take it off you to photocopy in the back office.
Don't forget to pack your Backpacking travel insurance!
You can purchase great value backpackers insurance direct at 24/7 travel insurance. For a 2-month trip in Asia, will cost you just £20.82* – a small price to pay to really enjoy your backpacking adventure all the more!

I love the marco option on my 70-300 lens. I love getting close but being far away.
Like Mr. Frog. Good luck getting a nice photo of Mr. Frog with a standard lens. Either you'd fall in or Mr. Frog would take a powder.
This is Dutch, taken from across the room. She's a cute cat, but try and get to close and that moment of cuteness is gone.
At NMCC one day, Gail Roy comes to me and asks "Do you have your camera?" Silly question, it is usually in my car. Outside a small bat was nestled against the building. The angle was odd, but this lil guy was cute!
Out walking last winter and that lovely red in a sea of white. And no reason to walk the quarter mile to get a nice closeup.
To the naked eye, its just the air disturbance, but to a telephoto lens, it's a plane in a full climb.
Or you go off walking and come back to find your adorable nephew naked and in mid jump (the flower is post editing )
One of my fave shots. Taken on top of the mountain in front of my house – In the bigger photo, the shadows even display the webbing and patterns of the wings.

A Simple Plan For Researching Attorneys
Identifying a Good DUI Attorney While friends and family can offer you all the support in the world, the only person you can count on when you are involved in a DUI or DWI case is a good DUI lawyer. They will be necessary to expertly represent you. There are follow-up requirements, such as training programs, alcoholic anonymous awareness sessions, mandatory treatments, and so on. Such activities are not cheap. Serious accidents are normally a guarantee of jail time. DUI or DWI charges are not something to be taken lightly. It is important you get the best criminal lawyer. There is a search criterion to help you out. Ask anyone you can for help. You may know a lawyer, who knows a good criminal lawyer, so ask for their help. Asking is important, since it could save you some valuable time and resources. A good place to look would be at the local attorney association or club. By these means you will have a few lawyers you can arrange to see face to face. Meet with them and find out if they have handled DUI cases before, and the course those cases took. From the information they give you, you will be able to see if they have what it takes to handle your case.
5 Key Takeaways on the Road to Dominating Experts
The lawyer you decide to work with has to have immense knowledge and experience in the local laws and regulations. Their license has to be functional in your area. A a good lawyer is one who can attend all your court hearings. In case your chosen lawyer has a good reputation in your area, your case will be favorable.
Interesting Research on Lawyers – Things You Probably Never Knew
At this point, you will need a lawyer who is completely honest with you. DUI cases are rarely neat and painless. Such accident usually leave one or more parties scarred for life, either physically or psychologically. You may have to bear an emotional or financial burden. Your lawyer has to be honest with you about your chances in court. On average, those arrested for DUI od DWI tend to either go to jail, or pay a heavy fine. Do not invest in a lawyer who talks tough in such circumstances. If you find a lawyer who follows up a breakdown of the expected scenarios with a sound defense strategy, go for him/her. Preparing for your court hearings is a difficult job. The case is already pitched against you and so herculean efforts are required. The large amount of work to be done is costly. Make sure you get this information from the beginning. Get a detailed and signed copy of the fee agreement. This will shield you from hidden charges.

Question How do infant feeding practices influence gut microbiota and risk of overweight?
Findings Among 1087 infants from the Canadian Healthy Infant Longitudinal Development (CHILD) cohort, earlier cessation of breastfeeding and supplementation with formula (more so than complementary foods) were associated with a dose-dependent increase in risk of overweight by age 12 months; this association was partially explained by specific gut microbiota features at 3 to 4 months. Subtle but significant microbiota differences were observed after brief exposure to formula limited to the birth hospital stay, but these differences were not associated with overweight.
Meaning Breastfeeding may contribute to protection against overweight by modifying the gut microbiota, particularly during early infancy.

Kirsters Baish| Judge T.S. Elliot, a Reagan appointed Senior United States District Judge for Virginia's Eastern District, got into a 10-minute long argument with Mueller's prosecution in the Manafort bank fraud and tax evasion trial. It all started when Paul Manafort's former business associate, Rick Gates, took the stand to testify on Monday.
It was reported by the Gateway Pundit that Judge Ellis scolded one of the prosecutors during a 10-minute long argument.
"You looked down as if to say 'that's B.S.!'" the Judge said. "I'm up here!"
He schooled the prosecution.
From Fox News:
U.S. District Judge T.S. Ellis III specifically pushed Andres on why the prosecution was moving slowly with Rick Gates – the former Manafort business partner who testified on Monday – and specifically to describe the link between wealthy Ukrainian politicos and Manafort. Ellis argued that the connection was not the basis of the case.
"What matters are the allegations that he made money from them and didn't report it," Ellis said. "You don't need to throw mud at these people."
Ellis again compared the Ukrainians in question to American billionaires and "Mr. Koch and Mr. Soros" as political contributors.
Andres said of the Ukrainians, "I don't know why you keep bringing (up) these people. These people are not like any Americans. These people are oligarchs and that means they control a segment of the economy based on the governments allowing them to do that."' He went on, "These are not really political contributions. They are self-serving payments with respect to what oligarchs do."
"That makes it even clearer to me that it doesn't have anything to do with the allegations in this case. It throws dirt on these people. They may deserve it. I don't know – and I don't care," answered Ellis.
There was another moment during the argument that Andres was heard challenging Ellis on a technicality. Andres stated, "Respectively, judge, that is not what the law is."
The height of the argument came when the Judge became angry by Andres when he decided to not look at Ellis while speaking.
"Look at me! Don't look down," Ellis insisted.
Andres answered by saying that he was looking at an important document, but that only made Ellis even more angry.
"You looked down as if to say 'that's B.S.!'" Ellis insisted. "I'm up here!"
Gates testified on Monday that he had committed crimes during his time working for Manafort. The crimes took place before the 2016 presidential election. Gates also claimed that he had helped the former Trump adviser file false tax returns. He also claims that he stole hundreds of thousands of dollars from Manafort, as reported by CNN.
Judge Ellis has made a name for himself with his no nonsense style in the courtroom. He is a Reagan appointee and understands what Mueller and his cronies are trying to do.
It was just last week that Mueller's prosecutors attacked Paul Manafort for his rich lifestyle and expensive suits. Ellis wasn't happy with their attack.
"It isn't a crime to have money and be profligate with your spending," Judge Ellis reminded Mueller's prosecutor.

B.S., North Carolina State University, 1967; Ph.D., University of Michigan, 1971. Arthur Amos Noyes Research Fellow, Caltech, 1972-74; Assistant Professor, 1974-77; Associate Professor, 1977-79; Professor, 1979-93; Shell Distinguished Professor, 1985-90; Centennial Professor, 1993-2016. Executive Officer for Chemistry, 1999-2002.
Research Areas: Chemistry
Research InterestsSynthetic, structural, thermochemical and mechanistic organotransition metal chemistry
Assistant: Pat Anderson
The Bercaw Group is investigating the general area of organotransition metal chemistry. New compounds are prepared using specialized vacuum line, Schlenk, and glove box techniques, and they are commonly characterized by multinuclear NMR spectrometry and by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods.
Reaction mechanisms are studied by isotopic labeling, characterization of intermediates, dynamic NMR techniques, and monitoring of reaction kinetics and stereochemistry. These studies are ultimately directed toward assessing the roles of transition metals in catalysis and developing new stoichiometric and catalytic reactions for converting readily available molecules such as olefins and alkanes into more valuable products.

I decided it was time to repot one of my plants. I would like to think it was my stellar attentiveness and gardening skills that led me to this moment. In truth, I had a pot that I liked and wanted to use. I was motivated to find a plant that needed repotting.
I like plants. I have many in my home. Most do well living in my sunroom. I admire them and on occasion water and prune them. Truly, my plants are merciful for they thrive in spite of me, blooming and growing even when they could use a drink or some attention.
The plant that I decided to repot is one of the neglected. It is an ivy of some sort. It was given to me by friends as part of a flower arrangement ten years ago. It was still growing in its original basket. The other plants in this arrangement, had long since been removed and replanted, but this one, remained. Slowly, it climbed over bookcases and lamps, attaching to sun catchers and picture frames. It appeared healthy. It is probably the plant I ignore the most.
So, I was shocked when I went to repot it. I had new soil, a lovely new container, and great expectations. I thought that I might even have to separate roots so that I would gain a second plant that I could take to my classroom. What I found, as I started the process, was shocking. This plant, with meters of foliage, green and robust, was connected to the soil by one frail root, barely resting in the old container.
I could not believe my eyes. I wondered what I should do. Do I dare disturb it? Will I kill the plant if I move it to new soil, fertile and rich? How did I not notice this when I watered? Was I so busy admiring the green leaves that I took no notice of the root? Apparently.
My heart has been filled these days with prayers about the church in my own little rural community. As I drive to and from my day job, I spend a lot of time praying and wondering about how so many of the little people I spend my days with have no idea of the One who loves them first and best. For they and their families, the church is as important as the bowling alley or the legion. They know it exists. They probably do not know why or never give it care.
Like my plant, the church may look to be okay on one level, still living, but not thriving as it could; still making a difference, but not like it should. Sometimes I feel like the church is so busy trying to survive that it has barely stayed connected to its source of life. Like my plant, because we see some life, we do not look beyond that and see that we are truly not growing. There is no new life and we are not making the difference that we could in our communities.
I repotted my plant. Though it looked healthy, I had to acknowledge that it has not grown larger in years. Where other plants have grown and multiplied, it has stayed pretty much the same. It has become more like a piece of art than a living thing. As I placed the spindly root in the new soil, I prayed for the church to be rooted, firmly, in the heart of the Good News. And I will continue to pray this prayer, especially when I water my plant, which I plan to do with more attentiveness and frequency!

In our lab, we use several advanced microscopy methods. These are continuously introduced in the Advanced Microscopy Lecture Series, run in collaboration with Prof Thorsten Mascher. These methods include:
Confocal multi-photon excited lifetime imaging (FLIM)
Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM)
Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM)
In addition, we also use simple epifluorescent microscopy and fluorescent stereomicroscopes. Both produce wonderful images.
Interested in a project? One suggestion for a Master project is here. Or a Bachelor project if you are good. Other ideas are welcome. More projects will follow.
