http://fortune.com/2015/06/02/pinterest-action-buttons/ | Tech Pinterest Here ' s how Pinterest will actually make money Pinterest By Tom Huddleston Jr . June 2 , 2015 A new “ buy button ” feature could help Pinterest start raking in cash . The social networking site , which has been working to grow its advertising revenue , on Monday revealed a new developer platform featuring “ Action Buttons ” that would let Pinterest users buy items or add them to a wish list , according to TechCrunch . After offering vague details about the platform over the past month , Pinterest finally revealed its plan for the buttons at MIT ’ s Emtech Digital conference in San Francisco earlier this week . As TechCrunch notes , the new platform will soon allow Pinterest users to click on items on the site — such as food items from a recipe or materials from a craft project — and add them to a virtual shopping cart or to their Amazon Wish List . Why would Pinterest want to allow these kinds of Action buttons ? Because it wants brands of all sorts pouring their wares into its discovery network . If partners can drive more sales through these Action buttons , their availability incentivizes them to create storefronts within Pins of everything they offer . More content keeps more people spending more time on Pinterest . And the startup could also charge partners to amplify the reach of their Action button - augmented Pins by turning them into ads . In essence , the fewer steps between discovery and purchase , the more Pinterest can fulfill its mission and make a fortune in the process . Pinterest has gradually looked to expand its potential for profitability since it launched five years ago . The company has had no problem attracting investors , though , as its valuation has grown from about $ 200 million in 2012 to a reported $ 11 billion with its latest fundraising round . Last month , the company launched a handful of new features aimed at boosting advertising revenue to help it compete with rivals like Facebook and Twitter . Those features included animated ads and improvements on how advertisers target Pinterest users , as well as Pinterest ’ s own in - house creative agency that works with large brands on creating targeted Pins .

http://fortune.com/2015/06/22/fortune500-food-beverage-tobacco/ | Retail Fortune 500 The Fortune 500 ’ s biggest food , beverage , and tobacco companies Mondelez International , Inc . brand cookies and crackers are arranged for a photograph in Tiskilwa , Illinois . Photograph by Daniel Acker — Bloomberg via Getty Images By John Kell June 22 , 2015 The largest food and tobacco companies on the Fortune 500 have a big problem . Nearly all of the companies saw their ranking slip in 2014 . Of the top 10 food , beverage and tobacco companies on the Fortune 500 , nine out of 10 dropped in the rankings last year , with only chicken producer Tyson Foods ( TSN ) earning a higher spot ( climbing ten spots to No . 83 ) . And more broadly , of the 25 food , beverage and tobacco companies that are on the Fortune 500 list , only four were able to increase their ranking last year . Profits and earnings have broadly declined for many of the firms within those sectors . For the tobacco industry , the decline is n ’ t a surprise . Though the industry aims to prop up results with new products like e - cigarettes and by increasing prices for traditional cigarettes , people are smoking less But for Big Food , executives are facing a newer challenge : consumers are increasingly skeptical of big brands that fill up grocery aisle shelves . Instead , smaller niche players are stealing market share . Consumers are also buying more fruits , vegetables and meats on the perimeter of grocery stores . That ’ s hurting the cereal , snack and soda makers that stock shelves with processed foods that are falling out of favor with more and more Americans . Still , Big Food is still top dog for now . Here is a look at Fortune ’ s 10 largest food , beverage and tobacco producers . 10 . General Mills Of the top 10 , General Mills ( GIS ) posted the greatest decline in the rankings , tumbling 12 spots to rank No . 171 on the Fortune 500 . The maker of Cheerios , Lucky Charms and Yoplait yogurt maker has reported consistent sales increases of late , though profitability dropped a bit last year . General Mills has faced a particularly tough challenge in the breakfast food aisle . Data from research firm NPD Group data 29 % of breakfast meals include cold cereal , down from 33 % in 2004 . Advertisement 9 . Altria Group The Marlboro cigarette producer commands a little more than 50 % of the cigarette market in the U.S. , a strong position that helps Altria ( MO ) secure key retail shelf space and also gives it pricing power . In 2014 , higher prices offset a decline in volume enough to allow Altria ( No . 169 on the Fortune 500 ) to post a slim 1.6 % increase in sales . Altria is facing a new , stronger rival in Reynolds American ( RAI ) , which officially merged with Lorillard this month . 8 . Kraft Foods Kraft Foods ( KRFT ) , maker of Kraft cheese , Planters peanuts and Jell - O , has gone through a lot of transformations in just under three years . In 2012 , the company was officially spun off from Mondelez ( MDLZ ) , which makes Oreos , Cadbury chocolate and Nabisco snacks . Less than three years later , another transformation is planned : Kraft ( No . 165 on the Fortune 500 ) is poised to merge with Heinz in a deal orchestrated by Warren Buffett and private - equity firm 3G Capital Partners . That deal would combine Kraft with Heinz , which ranks No . 272 . Advertisement 7 . Philip Morris International Americans generally associate the name “ Philip Morris ” with cigarettes that are sold here in the U.S. But there is a quirk : the company named Philip Morris International ( PM ) derives none of its sales and profits from the U.S. market . Those sales are booked by a separate company , Altria , while Philip Morris generates tobacco sales from all other markets around the globe . Philip Morris ( No . 102 on the Fortune 500 ) faced two significant challenges last year : it shipped 856 billion cigarettes last year , down 2.8 % from the prior year . And results were also dragged lower by a stronger U.S. dollar . When foreign currencies decline , the tobacco maker ’ s profits and sales suffer . 6 . Mondelez International Mondelez ’ s ( MDLZ ) 3 % revenue drop in 2014 caused the company to drop rank this year to No . 91 , and was among the largest declines reported by a food , beverage and tobacco producer last year , with results hurt by sharper declines for the Asia Pacific , Latin America and East and Africa regions . That ’ s largely because of currencies woes , which hurt other international companies on this list . Like many of its peers , Mondelez has announced a few bolt - on acquisitions , buying a massive stake in Vietnam snack maker Kinh Do Corp . and also scooping up allergy - friendly and gluten - free snack maker Enjoy Life Foods 5 . Tyson Foods Tyson Foods ( TSN ) is one of the few significant growth stories in the sector , with sales jumping 9 % and profits up 11 % in 2014 . Results were bolstered by strong domestic demand for chicken and higher volumes internationally . More Americans are increasingly interested in adding protein to their diet , a trend that favors meat producers like Tyson . The company ( No . 83 on the Fortune 500 ) also generated a lot of headlines for participating in a bidding war to buy Hillshire Brands . It won 4 . CHS Farmer - owned cooperative CHS ( No . 69 ) is the only non - publicly traded company featured on this list . But profits and sales have been stung by lower average selling prices for a handful of commodities the company handles , including grain , fertilizer and processed grains . Though CHS is very diverse , revenues are affected by market price swings for crude oil , fertilizer , grain and other commodities , and those swings are beyond the company ’ s control . But with only 10 % of net sales generated outside the U.S. , CHS has a lot of opportunity to expand globally 3 . Coca - Cola Coca - Cola ( KO ) has been pressured by a huge consumer shift away from carbonated soft drinks , a category that has suffered sales declines in the U.S. for a decade . The company ’ s Diet Coke is facing a particularly tough time as people express more concerns about “ diet ” labeled foods and beverages . Coke ( No . 63 ) does have one key advantage : as the world ’ s largest beverage company , it can utilize its relationships with retailers to win key store shelf space . 2 . PepsiCo No . 44 PepsiCo ’ s ( PEP ) greatest strength of late has been the company ’ s growth from the Frito - Lay North America business and from sales in the Asia , Middle East and Africa markets . Like Coke , soda sales trends have been exceptionally problematic . To hunt for growth , Pepsi wants to sell more products with reduced sugar , sodium and saturated fat to address new consumer tastes . The company is also targeting $ 1 billion in annual sales over the next several years by restructuring its manufacturing operations and increasing automation to help cut costs . 1 . Archer - Daniels Midland One of the world ’ s largest processors of oilseeds , corn , wheat and other agricultural commodities , that scale is why Archer - Daniels Midland ( ADM ) is the largest food company on the Fortune 500 at No . 34 . It has acquired a few key companies , including Wild Flavors and Specialty Commodities , while also selling some assets like its ’ global cocoa business . Those two businesses are so important to ADM that it created a new reporting segment to show off the results of those businesses . There are also a lot of cost and revenue synergies as ADM combines them . | [

http://fortune.com/2015/06/30/medical-marijuana-new-york/ | Venture medical marijuana Medical marijuana firms in New York get ready to grow Marijuana plants for sale are displayed at the medical marijuana farmers market at the California Heritage Market in Los Angeles , July 11 , 2014 . Photograph by David McNew — Reuters By Cyrus Sanati June 30 , 2015 The battle to win one of the five licenses for New York State ’ s new medical marijuana program could be over as early as this Friday , Fortune has learned . While the number of applications the state ended up receiving was far lower than what was earlier reported , the intensity of the competition was much greater than anticipated , according to a person with knowledge of the matter . The five winners will be granted exclusive rights to grow , market , and sell medical marijuana in New York State and operate up to four dispensaries apiece when the program goes live in January , 2016 . The state is granting the licenses now to give the winners time to grow enough marijuana to meet demand come next year . New York state last reported receiving 43 applications for the five coveted licenses , ranging from mom - and - pop startups to established corporations in the medical marijuana space . The applicants all tried to pump up their New York roots , while only a few were truly homegrown entities — which is understandable given the fact that marijuana has been illegal in New York for the past eight decades . While it is unclear which of the applicants will make the cut , there are a few companies that seem better prepared than the others . One leader of the pack is Long Island - based Compassionate Care Center of New York ( CCCNY ) . The company has received a great deal of media attention in recent weeks due to its partnership with Tikun Olam , the largest supplier of medical marijuana in Israel . Tikum Olam , which in Hebrew means “ healing the world , ” claims it has assembled the largest medical marijuana patient database on earth with over 10,000 patients monitored for nearly a decade . Tikum Olam says its research allows it to better treat patients because it already knows what works and what does n ’ t . Along with Tikun Olam , CCCNY recently announced a partnership with MedReleaf , the largest producer and distributor of medical marijuana in Canada . MedReleaf was brought in to oversee production at CCCNY ’ s 10 - acre greenhouse in Newark , N.Y. There , the company plans to grow a variety of cannabis strains for ailments that have been approved by the state to receive medical marijuana treatment . For example , the company holds the exclusive license for New York State to grow and market “ Haleigh ’ s Hope , ” a strain of medical marijuana that has had success in mitigating seizures in epileptic While CCCNY appears as the clear frontrunner in the race so far , it ’ s not the only contender . Empire State Compassionate Care ( ESCC ) recently made headlines after hiring New York State ’ s former head of homeland security , Michael Balboni , to serve as a “ security consultant . ” The state is extremely concerned about security and favors applicants who have a lot of muscle behind them . In addition to security , ESCC also brings a great deal of experience to the table . The company is owned by Michael and David Weisser , a father - and - son team who operate marijuana dispensaries in New Jersey and Colorado . While they ca n ’ t benefit from synergies , as all The market for medical marijuana is expected to grow rapidly over the next few years . Combined statewide revenue for 2016 is estimated to be around $ 239 million , growing to more than $ 1.2 billion by 2020 , according to GreenWave Advisors . The market would probably grow much faster if it were n ’ t for all the rules and regulations the state has put on the industry . The fact that only five companies will be allowed to sell marijuana to the public is just one of a number of curious restrictions outlined in the new law . Another control is that the state will not allow the product to be smoked under any circumstances . Instead , patients will need to swallow , eat , rub , or inject it . Doctors who want to prescribe marijuana to their patients must first become certified by the state to do so , which is bound to make the product more difficult to attain then it would otherwise , hurting early adoption . Patients are also required to go to their doctors for a new prescription every 30 days and then schlep over to one of the dispensaries to fill it in person , making the process a hassle for many to deal with . Lastly , medical insurance is barred from covering marijuana due to federal drug laws , meaning patients will Despite all those headwinds , many still believe the business is pretty lucrative . New York state is regulating the prescription price at a whopping $ 350 for a 30 - day supply . But given that marijuana is called “ weed ” for a reason , the profit margins here could be enormous , if scaled correctly , for whoever winds up in the final five . Read More | [

http://fortune.com/2015/07/30/us-gdp-economy/ | Finance The Chart : Investing Now The post - recession economy is worse than we thought NEW YORK , NY - APRIL 29 : Shoppers walk along Lexington Avenue in the eastern Midtown section of Manhattan on April 29 , 2015 in New York City . Photograph by Kevin Hagen — Getty Images By Chris Matthews July 30 , 2015 Economists usually like to give you your good news and bad news in one dose . The most recent report from the Bureau of Economic Analysis showed that the economy actually grew in the first quarter of 2015 , at a rate of 0.6 % , as opposed to the most recent estimate , which said that the economy shrank slightly in the first three months of the year . The BEA also estimated that second quarter growth came in at 2.4 % , slightly below economists ’ expectations , but enough to reassure analysts and market participants that the first - quarter slowdown was just a blip rather than the beginnings of a slowdown . But the positive news pretty much ends there . Non residential fixed investment , which includes spending on things like plants and equipment by companies , fell by 0.6 % in the second quarter , after growing in the first . This is an important category to watch because this sort of investment has been lacking in the recovery , though it has been picking up in recent quarters . A retreat in this sort of spending may suggest that businesses are not convinced of the resilience of the U.S. economy . Thursday ’ s report also included revisions in growth estimates for previous years as well . Check out this chart from The Wall Street Journal which shows the difference between the initial readings of post - recession growth and today ’ s revision : As you can see , the revisions generally show a more anemic record of post - recession growth than we thought . From 2011 through last year , the U.S. economy , on average , grew just 2 % per year , well below its post - war average of roughly 3 % growth . As University of Michigan Economist Justin Wolfers put it on Twitter : It ' s really astonishing how far unemployment fell from 2011 - 14 , given that economic growth barely averaged 2 % . — Justin Wolfers ( @ JustinWolfers ) July 30 , 2015 The post - recession economic growth picture looks even more miserable when you compare this recovery to those the U.S. experienced in every recession following World War II . This chart from the Minneapolis Fed shows GDP growth in the quarters following a recession : Even the Federal Reserve , which has consistently overestimated growth trends , only sees the economy growing between 1.8 % and 2 % for the full year this year , with long - run potential between 2 % and 2.3 % growth . This has some economists questioning whether the Fed should even consider raising rates this coming fall . Economist Danny Blanchover of Dartmouth wondered as much this morning on Twitter : Anaemic GDP growth no rise in wage growth falling consumer confidence declining particip rate strengthening $ = no time for a rate rise — Danny Blanchflower ( @ D_Blanchflower ) July 30 , 2015 The counter argument to this is that the U.S. has simply entered a new normal of slow economic growth . The significant job gains we have seen — underscored by Thursday ’ s unemployment claims numbers — are more the result of weak productivity growth than strong economic growth . Given this reality , and the fact that we ’ re starting to see the kind of wage gains that might lead to inflation , the Fed may need to raise rates even if the economy is n ’ t as strong as we ’ d all like .

http://fortune.com/2015/08/20/working-long-hours-health/ | Leadership health risks at work Science says working long hours is seriously bad for your health Photograph by Getty Images / Altrendo By Claire Zillman August 20 , 2015 Seriously : stop working so much , for your health ’ s sake . A new study of 600,000 individuals in Australia , the United States , and Europe published in the Lancet , a United Kingdom - based medical journal , found that people who more more than 55 hours per week or more have a 33 % greater risk of stroke and a 13 % greater risk of coronary heart disease . The study concludes that “ more attention should be paid to the management of vascular risk factors in individuals who work long hours . ” The study is the largest so far to examine the relationship between working hours and cardiovascular health and is especially noteworthy because it points to stroke as a risk of working long hours . Earlier studies have linked heart attacks to excessive work . There are critics of the study , though . Stephen Kopecky , a professor of medicine in the division of cardiology at the Mayo Clinic , told The New York Times , that the analysis did not fully account for the effects of cholesterol , family history , and blood pressure in all cases , so it is possible that long hours are not the only cause of the increased health risks .

http://fortune.com/2015/09/09/solar-panel-record-america/ | Tech GTM Research Solar panels just broke another record in the U.S . A SolarCity employee carries a solar panel being installed on the roof of a home in the Eagle Rock neighborhood of Los Angeles , Calif . in May 2014 . By Katie Fehrenbacher September 9 , 2015 The market to install solar panels on the roofs of homes in the U.S. set another record in the second quarter of this year , indicating a shift in the U.S. solar panel industry towards home owners and consumers . According to a new report from research firm GTM Research and the Solar Energy Industry Association trade group , the recent record beat out the amount of solar panels installed on home roofs in the first quarter of this year , which itself was a record at the time . For years , the bulk of solar panels in the U.S. have been installed in big solar farms in remote areas , creating electricity to be sold to utilities . Utilities distribute this electricity to consumers through a centralized power grid . That so - called utility - scale solar market is still significantly bigger than the one is for homes . In the most recent quarter , there were 729 megawatts worth of solar panels installed in solar farms for utilities . At the same time there were 473 megawatts of solar panels installed on home roofs . One thousand megawatts is about the size of a large coal or natural gas plant . But the amount of U.S. residential solar panels has been growing more rapidly , and has been expanding across more states than ever before . The amount of home solar roofs grew 70 % year - over - year for the most recent quarter , and went from four states with vibrant residential solar markets in 2013 , to ten states today . The growth in the market for residential solar is particularly interesting because by installing panels on roofs , consumers take more control over their own electricity generation . Energy generation becomes decentralized , in contrast to the traditional centralized model . In that model , utilities still provide the backbone for the grid , but do n ’ t own the generation . At the same time , the utility - scale solar market is growing , too . But there ’ s also potentially a boom and bust cycle happening for the biggest farms . There ’ s an important subsidy , called the federal investment tax credit , that offers solar farm owners a 30 percent tax credit . That credit could drop down to a 10 percent tax credit starting in 2017 . As a result power companies have been racing to build solar farms for utilities this year , leading to an over - inflated market in the short term and possibly an under - inflated one down the road . Another report from research firm IHS earlier this year found that as of this summer there were 32 gigawatts of solar farms , between the sizes of about twenty and a hundred megawatts in size , planned for the U.S. by the end of 2016 . The federal tax credit might get extended , particularly if a solar - friendly President like Hillary Clinton is elected . But the uncertainty will still affect the solar industry . Overall the growth in both the utility - scale and residential solar markets in the U.S. this year has been impressive . There are now over 20 gigawatts of solar panels operating in the U.S. , which can power 4.6 million U.S. homes . So far this year , 40 % of all the new electricity - generating capacity came from solar . To learn more about solar in the U.S. watch this Fortune video : Read More | [

http://fortune.com/2015/10/08/emc-federation-dell/ | Tech EMC What is the EMC Federation ? Joe Tucci , former CEO of EMC Photograph by David Paul Morris — Bloomberg via Getty Images By Jonathan Vanian October 8 , 2015 A report Wednesday that tech giant EMC is exploring a merger with Dell sent shockwaves throughout the technology industry . It would be among the biggest tech deals ever based on EMC ’ s market cap of nearly $ 50 billion . EMC is actually a constellation of six independently run businesses that operate as one giant company called the EMC Federation . The idea is for them to cooperate — like creating a unified sales staff — to make each member stronger . But critics have described the structure as unwieldy and confusing to customers and investors . Hedge fund Elliott Management has pushed the company to break itself apart because it believes that the combination is n ’ t as valuable to shareholders as it would be if it were torn apart . A possible merger with Dell could be the answer EMC is looking for to get those activist investors off its back . But many analysts question if the deal makes sense from a technology perspective . The following is all of the companies operating under the EMC Federation . 1 . EMC II – the storage business EMC II , the biggest business unit of the EMC Federation , specializes in selling data center storage gear . In 2014 , the unit had $ 16.5 billion in sales of the entire $ 24.4 billion by the entire Federation . Although it ’ s by far the largest of the companies , it ’ s growing slowly because of the rise of cloud computing , in which companies can buy on - demand computing resources from giants like Amazon ( amzn , + 0.13 % ) and Microsoft ( msft , + 0.79 % ) . Even EMC ’ s product and marketing chief , Jeremy Burton , conceded in an interview with Fortune in August that the storage business could one day be passed by another Federation company as the top revenue generator because of changing customer buying habits . 2 . VMware VMware specializes in a type of technology called virtualization , which lets one server function as many , thereby cutting down on the costs of having data center gear . The company is the second largest business unit in the Federation with nearly $ 6 billion in sales last year . A Silicon Valley darling when it was founded in 1998 , EMC ( EMC ) acquired the company in 2004 for $ 625 million . VMware had a successful IPO in 2007 and , at the time , had a higher market valuation than auto giant Ford ( f , + 1.39 % ) . Since then , however , VMware ( vmw , - 0.40 % ) has struggled to recapture the excitement it once had , and for years its stock price has remained flat at $ 85 dollars per share . Elliott Management has pushed EMC over the past year to spin off VMware into a separate company . 3 . Pivotal Pivotal is the EMC Federation ’ s fastest growing business unit , although it ’ s still a baby when it comes to revenue . Last year , the company ’ s sales rose 27 % to $ 227 million from 2013 . Pivotal formed in 2013 as a spin off of parts of both EMC and VMware . It helps companies build cloud and data analytic software , and counts BMW , Lockheed Martin , and General Electric as customers . Although Pivotal ’ s sales are small relative to some of the other business units , it ’ Fortune over the summer that Pivotal could one day lead the Federation in sales . 4 . RSA Security RSA Security was founded in 1982 and originally specialized in encryption , a type of technology used to scramble data and communications from unwanted parties . EMC bought RSA Security in June 2006 for roughly $ 2.1 billion to add cyber security technology to its stable of products . RSA now sells a host of cyber security tools , including network monitoring tools and fraud detection services used to prevent identity theft . In 2013 , the company faced some controversy when it was reported that the National Security Agency gave it $ 10 million to weaken its encryption technology so the agency could more easily spy . 5 . VCE VCE is a privately held company owned by EMC , and in some ways , it is itself a federation of companies within the EMC Federation . In 2009 , Cisco Systems ( csco , - 1.16 % ) , EMC , and VMware partnered up to develop a data center product known as converged infrastructure . The all - in - one data center box combines servers , storage gear , networking technology , and software into one appliance . The companies formalized the business and named it VCE in 2011 . Last fall , EMC took a bigger stake in VCE , which reduced Cisco ’ s ownership in the company . 6 . Virtustream Virtustream is the newest member of the EMC Federation , with EMC buying the cloud - computing company this summer for $ 1.2 billion . The company was originally founded in 2009 and its customers include Pizza Hut and Intel . Before EMC bought the company , Virtustream was reported to have an annual revenue run rate of $ 100 million . Technology giant SAP was a big investor of Virtustream and drove a $ 40 million funding round in the company back in 2013 .

http://fortune.com/2015/12/09/internet-making-people-doubt-themselves/ | Tech Internet How The Internet Is Making People Doubt Themselves Jamie Grill — Getty Images By Hilary Brueck December 9 , 2015 Here ’ s a quick test : What ’ s the capital of New York ? Are you sure — or do you maybe want to check your answer ? New research shows people with access to the Internet are more likely to double - check their answers to the kinds of general knowledge questions they may already know . In a study of about 100 people at the University of Waterloo in Canada , people were asked general knowledge questions like “ What ’ s the capital of France ? ” or “ Which is the largest ocean ? ” Half the group was offered Internet backup — and they were about 5 % more likely to say they did n ’ t know the answer to a question . Psychologist Evan Risko , who co - authored the study , says that may be because having access to the Internet is like having a really smart friend at your fingertips … there ’ s a chance to confirm , so why not ? It ’ s the latest wrinkle in the growing chorus of voices weighing in on how spending more time on the Internet is changing the way people operate , as more and more people are plugged in throughout the day ( about 36 % of people under 30 years old are online “ almost constantly ” ) . But all that time spent searching and scanning for answers to things people are n ’ t quite sure about can make them feel pretty smart at the end of the day . That was the finding of Yale doctoral candidate Matthew Fisher . His recent research showed that people who ’ ve been online claim to “ know a lot more than they actually do . ” He says the Internet is becoming a really efficient strategy for storing knowledge , much like a group or a couple can rely on each other as a memory aid ( this phenomenon is called transcative memory ) . But that kind of system can have “ unintended consequences when we ’ re failing to distinguish what ’ s our own knowledge , ” Fisher says . And while people may have a pretty accurate ‘ friend ’ in the Internet , Risko says he ’ s curious to find out whether or not having that easy access means people are willing to struggle less on a given task . … Care to check on that ?

http://fortune.com/2016/01/12/snapchat-facebook-video-views/ | Tech Snapchat Snapchat ' s Video Traffic Is Catching Facebook By Robert Hackett January 12 , 2016 The growth of Snapchat ’ s mobile video traffic is staggering . Snapchat users view , in aggregate , more than 7 billion videos through the ephemeral photo and video sharing app per day , a source close to the matter confirmed with Fortune . Between June and Nov . last year , Snapchat ’ s video traffic more than tripled to 6 billion per day , according to an earlier Financial Times report Get Data Sheet Fortune ’ s technology newsletter . Most of these gains can be attributed to Snapchat ’ s “ stories ” feature , notes Bloomberg , which first reported the latest figure . Stories allows Snapchat users to broadcast concatenated video clips and photos to their contacts for 24 - hour periods . The 5 - year - old company is valued at $ 16 billion , placing it at no . 5 on Fortune ’ s “ unicorn ” list of startups valued at $ 1 billion dollars or more . Investors base much of this perceived value on potential revenue to be generated from digital advertising . As the service attracts more eyeballs , it becomes a more attractive destination for ad dollars . Read : “ How Facebook ’ s video - traffic explosion is shaking up the advertising world ” In comparison , Facebook ( fb ) last reported that its users watched 8 billion videos per day on both desktop and mobile at the end of the company ’ s third quarter . The social network boasted 1.55 billion monthly active users at last count , however . That ’ s 15 times as many as Snapchat , which Evan Spiegel , the company ’ s co - founder and CEO , last said had 100 million daily users For more on video advertising , watch : Google - owned ( goog ) YouTube , the previously uncontested industry leader , does not break out how many daily video views it receives . “ Every day people watch hundreds of millions of hours on YouTube and generate billions of views , ” the company reports on its website Controversially , Facebook tallies any auto - play video that runs for at least three seconds in a person ’ s news feed as a “ view . ” Some critics have considered this seemingly arbitrary cut - off too short a timespan to gauge whether a viewer is actually paying attention to a video . A person familiar with Snapchat ’ s metrics told Fortune that the company counts a view only after a user has engaged or opened a story or message — meaning once the video renders , rather than when it is loaded .

http://fortune.com/2016/02/08/apple-amazon-hiring-spree/ | Tech Apple Amazon Now Has Twice as Many Employees as Apple By Philip Elmer - DeWitt February 8 , 2016 Amazon has been on a hiring spree lately , as illustrated by today ’ s updated chart from Jan Dawson of Jackdaw Research America ’ s largest retailer online or off — it surpassed Walmart ( wmt ) last year — now employs nearly 240,000 people .

http://fortune.com/2016/04/06/floyd-mayweather-conor-mcgregor-earnings/ | Sports athletes This Is How Much Floyd Mayweather Earned Per Second in the Ring Floyd Mayweather Jr . smiles while taking on Marcos Maidana during their WBC / WBA welterweight unification fight at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on May 3 , 2014 in Las Vegas , Nevada . Photograph by Harry How — Getty Images By Jonathan Chew April 6 , 2016 Floyd Mayweather Jr . was known as the world ’ s highest - paid athlete — but how much did the boxer earn for the actual work he put in ? Turns out , Mayweather earned more in one second of fighting in the ring last year than the average person makes annually , according to an analysis done by business research hub Expert Market . Mayweather took in around $ 65,972 per second of boxing , based on his earnings last year on 4,320 seconds of play , or $ 285 million . If you factor in endorsements , that number jumps to around $ 69,444 per second of boxing , or $ 300 million , according to Forbes estimates That would be more than an entire year ’ s income for the average household in the U.S. , since the median household income was estimated to be $ 53,657 in 2014 , as reported by the U.S. Census Bureau Mayweather has since retired and gone into promotion , but other athletes who reaped big bucks last year for a second ’ s worth of work include MMA fighters Conor McGregor and Ronda Rousey , Formula One racer Lewis Hamilton , and football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo : How does that compare with the income from your usual white - collar jobs ? It would surpass them by huge margins — a doctor , according to Expert Market , took home around $ 0.016 per second of work last year , while firefighters earned an average of just $ 0.0046 per second . That means a doctor would take about 47 days to earn what Mayweather takes home in one second of work . Lest you think this is a sign of wealth inequality gone mad , there is an economic reason for the disparity : an athlete ’ s talent is relatively more scare compared to , say , the ability of a firefighter , and the market we live in assigns value based on how rare that commodity is . It is behind the age - old debate of why diamonds have a higher value than water — also known as the “ paradox of value ” — although some economists argue that this could be changing SPONSORED FINANCIAL CONTENT You May Like Read More | [

http://fortune.com/2016/07/25/fed-janet-yellen-interest-rates/ | Commentary Federal Reserve This Is When the Fed Will Probably Raise Interest Rates Janet Yellen , chair of the U.S. Federal Reserve , speaks during a House Financial Services Committee hearing in Washington , D.C. , on June 22 , 2016 . Photograph by Andrew Harrer — Bloomberg via Getty Images By Robert R . Johnson July 26 , 2016 Robert R . Johnson is president and CEO of the American College of Financial Services and co - author of the recent McGraw - Hill book , Invest With The Fed . Farming , teaching , and garbage collecting are routinely considered among the most thankless jobs . Perhaps high on that list should also be serving as a member of the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee . Market commentators routinely criticize the Fed for both its actions and inactions with respect to interest rate policy . Politicians as diverse as Rand Paul , Bernie Sanders , and Donald Trump have all called for increased governmental oversight of the Fed . No doubt , following this week ’ s Fed meeting , there will be numerous commentators suggesting that the Fed should have raised rates given the strong jobs report in June . Others will continue to argue the opposite , and contend that the Fed acted too hastily last December when it increased rates for the first time in nearly 10 years . It does seem that with respect to monetary policy — a topic the vast majority of Americans do n ’ t understand — everyone has an opinion . Under Fed Chair Janet Yellen , the central bank has made it clear that its actions are going to be informed by the data . Pure and simple , the Fed will not raise rates this week because the economic data simply does n ’ t warrant an increase . While the payrolls number was unexpectedly strong in June , it was on the downside in May . Housing starts in June were much stronger than expected , increasing by 4.8 % , but that number has historically been extremely volatile . Now , critics can certainly point to structural problems in the U.S. economy — chief among them is income inequality . The Fed has a dual mandate : maximum employment and price stability . According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics , the unemployment rate is 4.9 % , approaching full employment . The current annual inflation rate is around 1 % , a full percentage point under the 2 % target . Some economists are concerned that potential deflation is a greater problem than inflation right now . But people need to pause and take a deep breath before evaluating where the U.S. is and how far the U.S. economy has come . The nation is in the midst of a highly polarizing presidential election cycle , one in which politicians on both sides are pointing to all of the social and economic problems that , of course , only they are uniquely qualified to solve . They make it seem like things have never been this bad in the U.S. Add to that the context of slower global growth overall and a backdrop of negative interest rates In fact , while the Fed has a dual mandate , its leadership certainly monitors both the domestic and global financial markets . In 2009 , at the nadir of the financial crisis , the S&P 500 stood at 676 , and even market observers other than permabear Marc Faber were suggesting we all might need to return to being hunter - gatherers . Since then , the market has hit all - time highs , advancing over 178 % over that time period . I do n ’ t believe there is a single investor — other than , Some commentators dismiss stock market performance and suggest that it ’ s not indicative of the underlying economy . A contention is that the advancing market has simply enriched the 1 % and the broad populace has not benefited . However , with the transition from a defined benefit to a defined contribution pension world , imagine how much worse the retirement income crisis would be if the financial markets had not rebounded from 2008 - 2009 . Contrary to some other commentators , I do n ’ t expect any movements on interest rates until December , as the Fed meeting calendar simply is n ’ t conducive to any actions prior to then . The data does n ’ t support raising rates this week . The next two Fed meetings — late September and early November — are simply too close to the presidential election for any moves to take place . The Fed does n ’ t want to be accused of playing politics , and a move in September or November could be In the age of the 24 / 7 news cycle , many pundits overreact to the release of new information . Indeed , that ’ s how they get attention . Let ’ s be thankful the Yellen Fed does n ’ t and takes a measured approach instead . Read More | [

http://fortune.com/2016/09/26/donald-trumps-tax-returns-debt/ | Finance 2016 presidential election Donald Trump ' s Tax Returns May Be Hiding This Bombshell from the 1990s By Shawn Tully September 26 , 2016 It ’ s plausible to believe that , deep inside Donald Trump ’ s many years of tax returns , which he has declined to make public , a surprise lurks . Heck , we already know him to be a serial exaggerator , at minimum , a person who has testified that his “ feelings ” influence his calculation of his net worth . More than one commentator has speculated that should Trump ’ s tax returns surface , they could reveal him to be worth dramatically less than he proclaims . Would n ’ t it be remarkable if the tycoon , who was claiming even in his darkest days in the 1990s to be worth over $ 1 billion , was admitting to the IRS that he was really not just dead broke , but hugely under water ? And that a special escape provision called “ insolvency ” — a place Trump has never publicly confessed to being — saved him a bundle in taxes ? With no tax returns to read , we do n ’ t know if any of this happened . But the question is one of the most intriguing in the saga of Trump ’ s revival . ( The following analysis does not imply that Trump did anything unethical . Employing the insolvency exclusion , if indeed he used it , is a legitimate way to lower liability . It ’ s a strategy that responsible tax advisers recommend all the time . The Trump campaign , presented with a detailed list of the points in this article , did not make anybody available for comment . ) In the early 1990s , Trump skirted personal bankruptcy by forging deals with lenders that substantially lowered his mountainous debt load . Under IRS rules , debt relief is considered taxable income . The borrower is required to report as income every dollar that creditors write down in loans that he or she has personally guaranteed , minus the fair market value of the assets surrendered to the banks as part of the restructuring package . The resulting income is then subject to both federal and state taxes . The Trump debt relief saga peaked in 1992 , when his major lenders agreed to shave $ 1.3 billion from the $ 3.5 billion Trump owed them . The crucial concession : Trump shed $ 770 million of the $ 885 million in loans from a group of lenders led by Citibank , guaranteed with his signature . In exchange , the banks seized parts of Trump ’ s empire , including the Trump Shuttle , the Regency Hotel in Atlantic City , and his 28 % share in the Alexander ’ s department stores . But Trump kept his The amount of “ income ” generated by those debt reductions is unclear , because we do n ’ t know the fair market value of the assets the banks took in exchange for forgiving personally - guaranteed debt , including loans on the Trump Shuttle . The taxable amount would consist of the $ 770 million minus the value of properties surrendered to the lenders . Even so , Trump ’ s tax liability from debt relief for that year could still have been substantial , possibly tens of millions of dollars . The maximum combined federal income tax rate in 1992 stood at 31 % for individuals and 34 % for businesses , and New York State added an additional 7.9 % . Related : Business , The Trump Way However , the IRS rules provide an escape hatch . If the borrower is “ insolvent , ” meaning that their liabilities exceed their assets , and if the dollar amount of their negative net worth exceeds their assets by more than the amount of the debt relief , they owe nothing in income taxes on debt relief . In other words , the amount of negative net worth becomes a big exclusion , potentially big enough to erase all taxes due . “ Insolvency is the way out , ” says James Rosa , a CPA and principal at What ’ s considered a “ liability ” ? The taxpayer can count all the personally guaranteed debt , and loans taken out against assets , in Trump ’ s case buildings , that exceed the value of those assets . The banks wrote down a total of $ 1.3 billion of Trump ’ s liabilities that year . So it ’ s possible that Trump ’ s total eligible remaining debt , when it came to tax relief , was big enough to eliminate , or substantially lower , the amount of taxes Trump would otherwise owe the IRS . “ The amount of tax due is reduced Of course , it ’ s also possible that Trump paid lots of taxes on debt forgiveness . It ’ s not clear , however , where he would have gotten the cash , given his super - stressed finances circa 1992 . What ’ s noteworthy is that the episode may follow Trump ’ s pattern of telling two different stories to two different audiences — in this case , one to the IRS , and another to the media . At the time of the big bailout in 1992 , Trump boasted to Business Week that he was still worth $ 1.5 billion . ( BusinessWeek was bought by Bloomberg in 2009 . ) BusinessWeek did a detailed analysis that , Fortune has learned , was based on reliable , confidential sources extremely familiar with Trump ’ s true condition . That accounting valued Trump ’ s liabilities at $ 1.4 billion more than his assets . Trump responded at the time by reiterating his previous position that his net worth was $ 1 billion - plus , but he did not specifically challenge BusinessWeek ’ s calculations . At the time , Trump was jocular about his financial woes when he was alone with colleagues , as Fortune reported in a 1996 story about his comeback . When he and his lieutenants would stride across Fifth Avenue to lunch at the Plaza Hotel , according to sources who were present at the time , Trump would point to a bum begging for handouts and quip : “ That bum is n ’ t worth a dime , but at least he ’ s at zero . That puts him $ 900 million ahead of me . ” Trump hates that story because it contradicts the triumphant image that he was selling the media . So it would be fascinating to learn if The Donald used a condition he ’ s never admitted to — insolvency — as he get - out - of - tax card . Despite all the investigation into Trump ’ s finances , here ’ s a mystery that ’ s yet to be fully explored .

http://fortune.com/2016/10/07/comcast-internet-data-caps/ | Tech connected home Why Comcast Wants to Limit Internet Data Usage by Its Customers Photograph by Getty Images By Aaron Pressman October 7 , 2016 The cable TV industry is playing the long game when it comes to denting threats to their monopoly status in most markets . Nothing on the horizon appears likely to offer a cheaper alternative to compete with cable ’ s ubiquitous infrastructure wiring up over 100 million homes nationwide . The real threat is cord cutting , when customers drop costly cable TV subscriptions for cheaper Internet - based entertainment alternatives . And already the proportion of households paying for cable TV dropped to 80 % last year from 84 % five years earlier . Regulators thwarted cable ’ s first strategic response . Initially , cable companies tried to charge services like Netflix ( nflx ) extra fees to reach their Internet customers . And when the services did n ’ t pay , customers mysteriously found their online video connections slowed to a crawl . The Federal Communications Commission ’ s net neutrality rules put an end to much of that effort , barring Internet service providers from discriminating against any online content . So now cable is turning to plan B : impose caps on customers ’ Internet usage that will eventually drive up the cost of watching too much online video . To avoid criticism and further regulatory pressure , the caps have largely been set at high levels that wo n ’ t impact online video watchers yet . But once the regime is in place , cable companies could easily lower the caps . They could also wait a few years until super high definition 4K video becomes the norm , meaning online video watchers will be consuming a lot more data . Or , they could follow the strategy of some wireless carriers of favoring their own online video services by exempting them from counting against the caps . Get Data Sheet , Fortune ’ s technology newsletter . This week , Comcast , the largest cable provider in the country , disclosed that it is extending a cap of one terabyte ( the equivalent of 1,000 gigabytes ) per month to customers in parts of 18 states , including California , Texas , and Michigan . The cable company already imposed the cap on customers in 16 states , such as Maine , Arizona , and Kentucky . Customers who use more than one terabyte in a month will be charged $ 10 for every additional 50 gigabytes . Earlier this year , Comcast raised the caps from 300 gigabytes . At one terabyte , a typical user would have to watch 600 to 700 hours of high - definition video in a month – or 25 to 29 straight days worth — to exceed the one terabyte cap , Comcast ( cmcsa ) says . Less than 1 % of current Comcast customers use more than one terabyte in a month , the company adds . And an “ unlimited ” plan is available for an extra fee of $ 50 a month . The company has said it needs to impose the caps to prevent some customers from using too much network capacity . For more on Comcast ’ s data cap policy , watch : Charter Communications ( chtr ) , the second - largest cable TV provider , wo n ’ t be allowed to impose data caps for the next seven years thanks to conditions imposed by regulators in April when it bought Time Warner Cable and Bright House Networks . Netflix jumped into the fray last month and asked the FCC to prohibit the caps . “ Today ’ s ‘ above - average ’ Internet consumer is tomorrow ’ s average Internet consumer , ” Netflix said in its filing At the same time , Netflix executives have tried to reassure investors that the caps wo n ’ t hurt its service right now . “ We ’ re super happy to see Comcast adopt 1 - terabyte data caps , because that ’ s really following the consumer , ” Netflix CFO David Wells told investors at the Goldman Sachs Communacopia conference last month . “ We think data caps are not a great consumer way to manage it , and you ’ re much better off selling higher - speed broadband and having services use the service . ” So for now , at least , most cable Internet users will still be able to watch as much Netflix and Hulu as they ’ d like . Down the road , it may be a different story . Read More | [

http://fortune.com/2017/01/11/donald-trump-marvel-ceo-ike-perlmutter/ | Entertainment Blue Ribbon Companies Why Donald Trump Gave Marvel ' s CEO a Shout - Out in His Press Conference US President - elect Donald Trump during a press conference January 11 , 2017 at Trump Tower in New York . By Tom Huddleston Jr . January 11 , 2017 Amid the boasts about creating jobs and denials of salacious rumors , President - elect Donald Trump took a moment during his press conference on Wednesday to heap some praise on Ike Perlmutter , the CEO of Marvel Entertainment . While announcing the news that he has picked David Shulkin ( a previous appointee of President Barack Obama ) to head the Department of Veterans Affairs , Trump also mentioned that Perlmutter has been “ very , very involved ” in advising Trump ’ s team on veterans affairs issues . Trump also called Perlmutter — the Israeli - American executive who became Marvel ’ s CEO in 2005 — ” one of the great men of business ” in the Wednesday press conference , Trump ’ s first as president - elect . “ We ’ re going to straighten out the VA for our veterans , ” Trump said of his administration . “ I ’ ve been promising that for a long time . ” A source with knowledge of the matter confirmed to Fortune that Perlmutter will take on an informal , though “ significant , ” advisory role in Trump ’ s administration with respect to veterans affairs . The role will not affect Perlmutter ’ s job as Marvel CEO , the source added , which means he will not be stepping aside at the Walt Disney - owned entertainment unit . For more about Donald Trump ’ s press conference watch : There had already been some speculation that Perlmutter would find a role in the incoming Trump Administration , with The New York Post last week citing anonymous sources who said the Marvel CEO would be a key aide on veterans affairs for Trump ’ s team . Perlmutter received some criticism last year for his support of Trump ’ s campaign , which included donating $ 1 million to the fundraiser for U.S. military veterans that Trump held a year ago as an event meant to upstage a GOP primary debate . Perlmutter — himself a veteran of the Israeli Army — is known to support causes aimed at benefitting military veterans , and Marvel last year partnered with the non - profit veterans charity , Wounded Warrior Project . Perlmutter bought Marvel out of bankruptcy in the late - 1990s and remained in the CEO role even after selling the company to Disney in 2009 for $ 4 billion . That deal proved to be extremely successful for Disney , as the entertainment giant has turned Marvel ’ s iconic comic book empire into a massive movie franchise that includes billion - dollar films such as Captain America : Civil War and The Avengers series . The sale also reportedly netted Perlmutter a large chunk of cash and Disney stock worth more than $ 1.4 billion . Read More | [

The decision comes as McDonald ’ s , which leads the $ 228 billion fast - food industry , is facing a slump . Revenue gains are slated to slow to 1.5 % this year and 1.6 % in 2018 — following a 2.4 % increase last year , according to Bloomberg . The sales drop is due in part to cheaper grocery prices , which have encouraged more Americans to eat at home instead of dining out . Aside from the slash in soda prices , McDonald ’ s ( mcd , + 0.15 % ) will also offer discounted McCafe drinks . Those beverages , which normally range from $ 2.69 and $ 4 , will be discounted to $ 2 for a limited time , according to Bloomberg . Though the drink promotion comes as a way for the company to lure customers back into its restaurants , this is n ’ t its first attempt . Ever since CEO Steve Easterbrook started at McDonald ’ s nearly two years ago , it has overhauled its menu and marketing . In the last two years , McDonald ’ s introduced the all - day breakfast and rolled out two - for - $ 2 and two - for - $ 5 deals after it got rid of its beloved Dollar Menu .

http://fortune.com/2017/07/31/spotify-ipo-direct-listing-2/ | Tech Term Sheet How Will Spotify ' s Direct Listing Work ? By Erin Griffith July 31 , 2017 This article first appeared in Term Sheet , Fortune ’ s newsletter on deals and dealmakers . Sign up here Remember early 2017 , when the IPO market looked bright and full of possibility The reality has been a bit … meh Two things could change that in the back half of the year : One , all companies can now benefit from the JOBS Act ’ s option to file in stealth mode , as Fortune ’ s Jeff John Roberts reported recently The stealth filing option , which is already available to firms with under $ 1 billion in revenue , is intended to let companies work out kinks in the registration process out of the public eye . … Under the new rules , they only have to do so 15 days before their so - called “ roadshow ” — a tour where they make presentations to investors . The policy applies to both IPOs and direct listings , which brings me to my second point : A successful direct listing from Spotify could prompt a wave of startups following the company ’ s footsteps . Direct listings – where a company starts selling its stock on the public markets without going through the whole roadshow song - and - dance process – are not new , but they ’ re extremely rare . I found a handful of examples : Ovascience ( market cap : $ 55 million ) , Nexeon MedSystems , Coronado Biosciences , and BioLine Rx ( market cap : $ 83 million ) . You ’ ve never heard of these companies Spotify , last valued by private market investors at $ 8.5 billion , would likely be the first large company to go public via direct listing . In another first , Spotify is expected to list on NYSE , which recently changed its rules to accommodate for this exact transaction . Previously direct listings only happened on Nasdaq . Companies undergoing direct listings file something called a Form 10 . If they ’ re foreign , like Spotify , they file a Form 20 - F . As we ’ ve outlined before : There are plenty of benefits to this experiment . No investment bank . No new share issues , and no dilution . No lock - up period . No underwriters . ( “ If an IPO is like a wedding , a direct listing is running off to elope . A faster , easier , cheaper route to the same result . ” ) And there are major risks : No deal support from the bankers . No guaranteed “ safe ” long hold investors . No greenshoe , and no buffer against volatility . Anna Pinedo , a partner with the law firm Morrison & Forrester , has worked on several direct listings in the past . In her experience , there has never been more than a handful of direct listings in a given year . Thanks to the news of Spotify ’ s plans , she says more large companies have been inquiring about it . Given how quickly this could happen , I posed a few questions so we ’ re totally not caught off - guard some random morning when Spotify stock is suddenly trading on the free market . Term Sheet : IPOs are designed to attract long - hold investors , the ideal kind of investors a company wants buying its stock . It ’ s easier for them to buy big chunks of stock all at once in an IPO . Less so in a direct listing , where limited shares will be for sale and pricing might be volatile . Will this make it harder for them to invest ? Anna Pinedo : In the past , maybe , but now so many of the unicorns and even the biotech companies have done these late stage private placements . [ Public market investors ] have gotten into those through their crossover funds that have invested already . The part that ’ s most curious to me is , ‘ How do you settle on that price at which you list ? ’ Usually in the process of doing an IPO , there is intense back and forth regarding the valuation model , discussions with research analysts and the investment banks underwriting it and will eventually cover the company . Is that process occurring already because a company has gotten so large that it ’ s having those discussions anyway ? What ’ s the reaction been like from the banking side ? People are just scratching their heads thinking , ‘ Okay , I did n ’ t realize this was an approach . ’ I ’ ve gotten a lot of questions about how does this functionally work , how would you go about doing this , why have n ’ t people done this before . It ’ s more the unknown and unfamiliar that has attracted everyone ’ s attention . Is the preparation any different from a normal IPO ? It ’ s comparable . The 20 - F or Form 10 is a pretty robust document , very much like a registration statement . It ’ s the same process you would go through with the accountant , but without doing a comfort letter , the IPO fees , probably not paying an underwriter , or going through the same kinds of drafting sessions and discussions about positioning the company or describing the company . It can be a process that the company controls a bit more than the IPO process , where it relinquishes some control to the Read More | [

http://fortune.com/2017/09/03/hurricane-harvey-damages-cost/ | Finance Hurricane Harvey Hurricane Harvey Damages Could Cost up to $ 180 Billion By Reuters September 3 , 2017 U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin on Sunday challenged Congress to raise the government ’ s debt limit in order to free up relief spending for Hurricane Harvey , a disaster that the governor of Texas said could require up to $ 180 billion . Harvey , which came ashore on August 25 as the most powerful hurricane to hit Texas in more than 50 years , has killed an estimated 50 people , displaced more than 1 million and damaged some 200,000 homes in a path of destruction stretching for more than 300 miles ( 480 kms ) . As the city of Houston and the region ’ s critical energy infrastructure edged back to normal nine days after the storm first hit , the debate over how to pay for the disaster played out in Washington . Texas Governor Greg Abbott estimated damage from Hurricane Harvey at $ 150 billion to $ 180 billion , calling it more costly than epic Hurricanes Katrina or Sandy , which devastated New Orleans in 2005 and New York City in 2012 . The administration of U.S. President Donald Trump has asked Congress for an initial $ 7.85 billion for recovery efforts , a fraction of what will eventually be needed . Even that amount could be delayed unless Congress quickly increases the government ’ s debt ceiling , Mnuchin said , as the United States is on track to hit its mandated borrowing limit by the end of the month unless Congress increases it . “ Without raising the debt limit , I am not comfortable that we will get money to Texas this month to rebuild , ” Mnuchin told Fox News . Republican lawmakers , who control both houses of Congress , have traditionally resisted raising the debt ceiling , but linking the issue to hurricane relief could force their hand with people suffering and much of the fourth - largest U.S. city under water . Beyond the immediate funding , any massive aid package faces budget pressures at a time when Trump is advocating for tax reform or tax cuts , leading some on Capitol Hill to suggest aid may be released in a series of smaller appropriations . Katrina set the record by costing U.S. taxpayers more than $ 110 billion . In advocating for funds to help rebuild his state , Abbott said damage from Harvey would exceed that . But a federal official said state and local governments also needed to do their part instead of relying entirely on Washington . “ They ca n ’ t depend only on federal emergency management , ” Brock Long , head of the U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency , told CBS News . 95 % Dry Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner said on Sunday the city was making progress on several fronts , expecting most public services and businesses to be restored by Tuesday , the first business day after Monday ’ s Labor Day holiday . “ Over 95 % of the city is now dry . And I ’ m encouraging people to get up and let ’ s get going , ” Turner told NBC News . “ This is a can - do city . We ’ re not going to engage in a pity party , ” he said on CBS . Even so , the city mandated the evacuation of thousands of people on the western side of town on Sunday to accommodate the release of water from a pair of reservoirs that otherwise might sustain damage . The storm stalled over Houston , dumping more than 50 inches ( 1.3 m ) on the region in a matter of days . The city cut off power to homes on Sunday morning to encourage evacuations . About 37,000 refugees stayed overnight in 270 shelters in Texas plus another 2,000 in seven Louisiana shelters , the highest number reported so far by the American Red Cross . Some 84,700 homes and businesses were without power on Sunday , down from a peak of around 300,000 , according to the region ’ s major electric companies . Energy disruptions pushed up gasoline futures to a two - year high ahead of the holiday weekend , but major refineries started to come back online on Friday . Colonial Pipeline , the biggest U.S. fuel system , expects to reopen a Texas segment of its network on Monday , when it will resume transporting distillates from Houston to Hebert , Texas , the company said on Sunday , adding that it would be ready to start moving gasoline on Tuesday . Those repairs would restore to normal Colonial ’ s entire 5,500 - mile ( 8,850 - km ) pipeline running from Houston to Linden , New Jersey , relieving shortages between Texas and the U.S. Northeast .

http://fortune.com/2017/09/06/what-is-daca-program/ | Leadership DACA Everything to Know About DACA as the Trump Administration Tries to Shut It Down By Grace Donnelly September 6 , 2017 It ’ s been about a day since Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced the Trump Administration ’ s decision to phase out the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals ( DACA ) program . The announcement was met with some very strong reactions , including 400 U.S. CEOs So what now ? Here ’ s everything you need to know and look for as plans to discontinue the DACA program unfold . What is DACA ? The DACA program allows young men and women , who were brought to the United States illegally as children to stay if they meet some basic requirements . It was conceived as a way to protect young people who have grown up in the United States and allow them to contribute to the economy and the country without the threat of deportation . When was DACA passed ? The Obama Administration put the program in place in 2012 . After urging Congress to draft a policy to protect young undocumented Americans during his first term , President Obama bypassed the legislature and created the program through an executive order . On Facebook Tuesday , Obama ’ s DACA statement condemned the decision to end the program , calling it “ wrong , ” “ self - defeating , ” and “ cruel . ” Who does DACA affect ? There are nearly 800,000 “ Dreamers ” — young people who are currently protected by the program and most of whom came to the U.S. from Mexico and other Latin American countries . Under DACA , Dreamers could apply for two - year work visas that prevent them from being deported . In order to be eligible for the DACA program , someone needs to have arrived in the U.S. before they were 16 years old , lived in the country since June 15 , 2007 , and have been under 30 years old when the policy was enacted . The program allows these individuals to apply for driver ’ s licenses , enroll in college , legally find jobs , and pay income taxes . New applications for visas under DACA are no longer being accepted by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services . The Department of Homeland Security says it will only process initial work visa applications , first - time DACA program applicants , if they were accepted on or before Sept . 5 , 2017 . People who already have a 2 - year work visa through DACA that ’ s set to expire before March 5 , 2018 they have until Oct . 5 , 2017 to submit their renewal paperwork . This will not work the same way as college applications or taxes — if you get your envelope postmarked the same day as the deadline you ’ re in the clear . DHS will only process renewal applications that it receives and accepts before Oct . 5 . Why did Trump end DACA ? This decision will appease the president ’ s far - right base of supporters by fulfilling his campaign promise to end the DACA program and enact more nationalist , America first immigration policies . With this announcement , the White House shifted responsibility for the future of DACA to Congress , allowing president Trump to take a more hands - off approach to deporting young people and their families . It ’ s worth noting that House Speaker Paul Ryan ( R - Wis . ) and Sen . Orrin Hatch ( R - Utah ) have urged Trump not to end the program . When does DACA expire ? No one currently protected under the DACA program will be affected prior to March 5th , 2018 , according to the Trump Administration . This gives Congress six months to put legislation in place to continue granting work visas to Dreamers . If lawmakers ca n ’ t agree on a new solution during this very busy congressional session , DACA recipients could be at risk of deportation as early as March . Current estimates are that the decision to end the program could cost the U.S. economy $ 280 billion and 700,000 jobs . Several states , including New York and Washington , promised to sue the federal government if DACA protection was rescinded . The business community also voiced support for the program and the young people under its protection over the weekend . The 400 business leaders who spoke out yesterday , including CEOs at Amazon Apple AT&T Google Microsoft , and Facebook , signed a letter saying that Dreamers are “ vital to the future of our companies and our economy ” and are “ part of why we will continue to have a competitive global advantage . ” Read More | [

http://fortune.com/2018/01/03/best-diets-of-2018-ranked/ | Health public health Mediterranean or Whole30 ? Which Is the Best Diet to Start 2018 LauriPatterson — Getty Images By Sy Mukherjee January 3 , 2018 Does your New Year ’ s resolutions list include losing weight , getting more in shape , or just eating better overall ? Well , health experts have weighed in on the best diets for 2018 , ranking popular diets like the Mediterranean diet , DASH diet , Keto diet , and others in a list for U.S. News & World Report Here ’ s what they have to say . Best diets overall Overall , the most endorsed diets were the government - supported Dietary Approach to Stop Hypertension ( DASH ) diet , the Mediterranean diet , the Flexitarian diet , and the Weight Watchers diet . So just what do those diets consist of ? The DASH diet is a fairly common sense one — it involved a diet high in fruits , vegetables , whole grains , lean proteins , and low - fat dairy . Things to keep in check ? Salt , foods high in saturated fats , artificially sweetened or high - sugar content food and drinks . The Mediterranean diet mimics the eating habits of that region , with an emphasis on fish and seafood , leafy greens , nuts and legumes , and low in red meat , carbs like sugar , and saturated fat . Finally , the Weight Watchers diet is the highest - ranking commercial diet on the list , outscoring competitors like Jenny Craig and Flat Belly ; the system assigns point values to food with the goal of promoting weight loss ( the Flexitarian Diet is another fruit , vegetable , and whole grain - oriented diet that also relies on Best diets for weight loss Different diets have different uses . And the U.S. News rankings has helpful sections for people who may be trying to lose weight , simply eating healthy , or trying to control a chronic health condition like diabetes . For instance , the Weight Watchers diet tops the weight loss list , followed by the Volumetrics diet ( a “ volume ” - based eating regimen that focuses on “ low - density ” foods that provide plenty of energy but via fewer calories ) . Such diets could help people lose as much as a pound or two per week . Subscribe to Brainstorm Health Daily , our newsletter about health innovations . Best diets for heart disease and diabetes Several of these weight loss diets are also good for your cardiovascular health . But what if you ’ re diabetic or at risk of developing diabetes ? According to experts , the Mediterranean and DASH diets are the best for preventing or controlling diabetes . Flexitarian , the Mayo Clinic diet , and vegan diet also rank highly on that list . In general , the Mediterranean diet comes with a slew of endorsements for its potential to lead to better heart health and possibly reduce the risk of Alzheimer ’ s disease . Diets you should think hard about You may have noticed the aforementioned diets do n ’ t include some more popular ones , such as the Keto diet or the Paleo diet . In fact , the Keto diet has an overall score of just 1.9 out of 5 , or tied for last place on the list at # 39 . This carb - slashing , fat burning diet may be effective for some ; however , it also comes with risks , particularly for those with certain medical conditions . “ The Keto diet is n ’ t for everyone , as Dr . Josh Axe pointed out in a largely favorable U.S. News article published in April 2017 . Pregnant or nursing women , underweight people , women with a history of eating disorders or anyone with heart disease who has n ’ t first consulted a doctor should avoid the diet , ” reads U.S. News ’ list . It can also be risky for people with diabetes since their glucose and insulin levels would need strict monitoring . The Paleo diet is number 32 on the overall list with a score of 2.3 out of 5 . There is some controversy surrounding the scientific rationale of eating like our ancient ancestors — i.e. , animal proteins and plants , the kinds of foods and that would be amassed by a hunter - gatherer society . The efficacy of the Paleo diet is also intimately linked to the type of meats you eat . After all , processed foods like bacon and other red meats are n ’ t necessarily great substitutes for bread and starchy products . Two other diets to approach skeptically ? The Dukan diet and the Whole30 diet , which the experts labeled as lacking scientific evidence of efficacy and as being entirely too restrictive to be healthy . Read More | [

Abandoned in 1919 . Camp Sevier Panorama circa 1918 Camp Sevier Panorama circa 1918 World War I ( 1917 - 1918 ) One of sixteen U.S. Army National Guard Mobilization and Training Camps established in 1917 to train and integrate National Guard units for service in a U.S. Army division . Camp Sevier was established 18 July 1917 under the supervision of construction quartermaster Major A . G . Doyle on a site of about 1,900 acres . The camp was to have a capacity of about 46,000 officers and enlisted men that would become the 30th U.S. Infantry Division . The camp was completed in November 1917 at an eventual cost of $ 6,500,000 . The first commander of the camp was Major General John F .

Palace was also stripped of much of its interior decoration particularlyfrom what I remember by Germans searching for jewelry and hidden treasures and several smaller rooms were eliminated like the Empress dressing room and bathroom These sad facts would explain its present configuration and condition Here are some pictures of the condition of the Catherine Palace post World War II

during World War II had orders to destroy anything they could find that had to do with Russian culture or history Conseqently much of the damage to the palaces and other structures was intentional A great many valuables were evacuated before the Germans arrived but much had to be left behind Probably the best description of how what appeared to be hopeless destruction was in fact restored can be found in Suzanne Massies Pavlovsk The Life of a Russian Palace Pavlovosk was the first palace to be restored and the methods learned in the process have been applied to many other restorations The

10 on August 16 2008 063144 AM It is absolutely impossible to describe the devastation to the palaces and park surrounding Leningrad during the war A few pictures will not be enough also The palaces except Oranienbaum were completely destroyed during the occupation the Germans used most rooms a toilets most walls for target practice and even boarded their horses As they retreated they bombed and burned everything in site All the park statues were destroyed The parks themselves were mined The towns were destroyed Not many people remained and those that did were home less In Pavlovsk for example only one house in the town remained The Russian artillery had to fire on their own palaces and towns in order to defeat the Germans it broke their hearts to do so If it had not been for the foresight of the Russian people to hide what they could and to transport out of Leningrad and the surrounding areas as much of their historical treasures as was humanly possible there would be nothing left today If it had not been for the courage and pride of the Russian people to go out everyday to clean up after the destruction there would be nothing left today Women voluntarily would walk the park grounds to find the mines at least one died every day in the grounds of Pavlovsk And they cleared rubble from the Catherine Palace the AP Peterhof Pavlovsk and many more every day for years saving anything that could be restored and anything that could be used as an example to create a new copy If it had not been for the many many Russian people who learned the restoration techniques of the old masters and then dedicated their whole lives to the painstakingly restoration work there would be nothing left today A very good book to read is Saving The Tsars Palaces by Christopher Morgan

It was about half as much at Lowes plus they didnt have 58 MDF in stock After the purchase I read that one isnt supposed to use screws in particle board because they will strip out easily Is this true If so what is the proper method of joining the boards for my cp box thx Ace Logged I want my own arcade controls _Iz Trade Count 0 Full Member Offline Posts 674 Time to coin up ReBest way to join particle board Reply 1 on March 28 2003 033629 pm Screws into the edges will strip out easily and maybe even split the board Screws into or thru the face are fine just dont try it too close to the edges So using this advice the best method for joining two pieces would be with L brackets or with a corner block or make a 2x4 or 2x2 frame and screw the panels to that Gluing all your joints will help too that way the screws just have to hold long enough for the glue to dry IMPORTANT If you are going to glue the joints make sure you dont glue anything that has to be removeable later For example if your cabinet itself will fit thru the door but with the control panel box attached it wont then make sure you just screw the box to the cabinet and dont glue it You need to be able to remove it later if you want to take it back out of the house Last Edit March 28 2003 034448 pm by _Iz Logged AceTKK Trade Count 0 Full Member Offline Posts 664 ReBest way to join particle board Reply

to join particle board March 28 2003 035722 pm for particule board if you screw and then unscrew it might be hard to screw back into the same hole again cos the hole is already there and itll be loose for you if this happens to you you can get some toothpicks the thinker round ones and stick it into the hole and fill the hole break off the extras then sequeeze a little glue into that toothpick filled hole now you can screw it back in and it should hold fine this would also work with plywood but if its too close to the edge it might put too much pressure and split hope it helps Logged

pm heres my take on dealing with mdfpartical board first off what size did you buy you said they were out of 58 did you get 12 or 34 if you got 12 options 1 and 3 will be out option 1 if you got 34 screwing through the edges is possible without splitting the wood you just need to be very careful and hit the center i built a simple little jig to help with the centering of the holes when i do this drill a pilot hole first then put in the screw you need to realize what splits the wood isnt the screw its the wood your displacing with it plan on screwing the pieces together once eveytime you take out the screw the joint will weaken also spread wood glue across the edges between the joints and in easiest and weakest way to go option 2 use a corner brace this is similar to using L barckets but stronger get some 1x1 stock to run along the inside corners and screw into this instead of the mdf attatch it completely to one side first then align the second side up clamp it together then screw pilot holes will make things easier again use wood glue on all wood to wood conections this is a more time consuming method but will give you much better joints and the only extra tools needed is some clamps option 3 use a routerbiscuit jointer and biscuits once youve notched the edges and ran a bead of glue slide in the biscuits and clamp the sides together i would still use a few braces but its not as important for it to run the length of the joint just put small ones at the beginning and ending of the joint if its a long one brace it in the middle as well this will make a rock solid joint but you will need the tools do it option 4 build a frame for your cabinet first you could use cheap 2x4s then attatch the mdf this is a solid way to go but will require some framing skill personally im going to use a combination of 2 and 4 frame the top and bottom of the cabinetand of course the monitor area and use braces for the rest hope this helps Logged kspiff Trade Count 1 Full Member

You can go from int to char array ( itoa ( ) ) and back ( atoi ( ) ) directly . Because I from what I read itoa ( ) and atoi ( ) seemed a bit complicated . But it turned out not to be that hard at all . The second argument is the number of characters that the array can hold , NOT the number of characters in the String . The String object already knows how many characters it has . This is a bit null and void since I went with the other solution but I had problems getting only 2 digits when I were supposed to get 3 and so on . Adding + 1 helped .

I did however get into a problem on the receiving end that I did n ' t describe here first .

There is no reason for it to be , since it is not a char array that represents a string . It is only your interpretation of the data that makes it appear to be a string .

I get why I do this but I do n ' t understand how it works . Am I right to assume that " buflen " is the size of the char array sent via VirtualWire . So would n ' t buflen be the position of the last valid data not the position after ? So why doese n ' t the null termination overwrite the last valid data ?

Because if buflen is 5 , that means there are 5 bytes of data stored in indices 0 , 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 .

I just got the lower bit of my cartilage pierced ( is there a special name for that part I got it pierced ? LOL just curious . . . ! ) just last Wednesday @ Punktured Piercing Studio , Brighton . I got it done professionally with a needle - a 14 gauge barbell right through my lower cartilage . Today , it was a bit sore and I looked in the mirror to find that it was swollen ! So I went back to the shop and I consulted one of the staff there , and he examined my ear carefully and told me that its not infected . He said its swollen because all cartilage piercings will get swollen , and that the piercing is settling in and that my cartilage piercing is healing really well so theres nothing to worry about ! Is this true ? Cos it ' s freaking me out if its going to be infected ! Is this typical ? ( Cos I ' ve got my upper cartilage pierced a few months ago by the gun and I got that badly infected so its freaking me out . . . I do n ' t want to go through all that pain , its hell ! ) I took a few pics ( sorry about the blurriness because I took it myself and its really hard to adjust the focus ! ) Thanks for all the time to read this - its hugely appreciated 12 - 11 - 2007 , 10 : 33 PM # 2 insideout Senior Member Join Date Feb - 2005 Location West Midlands Posts 12,021 Taking Ibuprofen and doing cold compresses should help with the swelling .

I got a thick barbell from the shop which measures 1.6mm by 8mm . I assume that ' s pretty long ? Or is it not ? To everyone : Also , I have long hair . If I let my hair down , would there be a higher chance / risk of getting it infected ? Cos I ' ve heard that you should just tie your hair up because hair has lots of oils / bacteria and if its always touching the piercing it could be dirty and have a chance of getting the piercing infected . Also , how long will it take for the cartilage piercing to heal ? When would I be able to take the barbell out ? One last word : Is this cartilage piercing that I got called an ' Auricle ' piercing ? Thanks again ! Last edited by kikistarz ; 12 - 12 - 2007 at 01 : 29 AM 10 : 06 AM # 7 just persia Jun - 2007 2,594 I have mine pierced in exactly the same place , and experienced a little swelling too , so it ' s fine . The 8mm barbell is a good size to downsize to , as usually they are pierced with 10mm or 12mm ' s . About the hair thing , I have long hair and mine covers my helix / auricle ( I call it a low helix , others call it an auricle ) and it has been fine , just keep your hair clean , and be careful when washing it not to get soap suds into it . 12 - 14 - 2007 , 02 : 37 AM # 8 Thanks guys for all the help ! 12 - 15 - 2007 , 04 : 25 PM # 9 metal_tom Oct - 2006 Burgess Hill / W . Sussex 337 Cartilage piercings tend to take rather a long while to heal in my experience since they are quite prone to being knocked ( purely accidentally etc ) so they can produce ' crusties ' for a good few months , plus it all depends on the person . I ' d say bare minimum is going to be around 12 weeks but much more likely to be around 6 months . Piercings : Left Ear : 15mm Lobe ( Scalpelled @ 12mm ) 2xCartellidge @ 1.6mm , Conch @ 3.2mm Right Ear : 1 " Lobe , 4mm dermal punched inner conch Body : PA 4mm Would like : More dermal punching , lobe scalpelling , more conch stretching and some more genital work perhaps ?

My hair ' s really long and in all honesty I find the best thing is just to keep my hair clean and brushed ! Try to avoid it getting greasy and avoid knots near the piercing .

I got my tongue pierced a few months back , and as my first bar I bought one of the UV Starbells from the online store , which only comes in 16mm , but the bar seems way , way too long and I somehow managed to bite one of the balls ( which are luckily acrylic ) in my sleep last night and it still hurt like hell .

Try measuring the excess on your current barbell , the one that ' s too long and taking that off from its length , that should roughly tell you the size you need .

Bought it new . The wheel is getting to much play . About + & - 22 degrees each way from being centered . Or 44 degrees of total play . It has a sealed Teleflex that was very loose from day 1 . What other companies make a unit to replace mine ? I want to know before I tell the Marina to change it . I HATE play in any steering system . Big Fun Long time boater Members 1,526 posts Location : Solomons Island , Maryland & Atlantic Beach Florida Posted You will need a model number because there are many kinds of steering systems . Check out the info on Youtube it may help . Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available . Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video . 10,730 posts New Jersey & Clayton , N Y Since I do not know what type is in the boat . Can someone rate the different types I could pick from . I hope there are rack & pinions that are about 0 % free play . My present unit only exits to 1 side . A cable of some type ? kssboat 47 posts Runnemede , New Jersey First make sure the play is coming from the steering cable and helm . If your boat has a mercruiser outdrive , I highly doubt your problem is the helm or the cable . I have had two different boats both set up with mercruiser drives ( before that I was an outboard owner ) . The Gimbel assemblies is what go bad . The steering lever in the boat is tied to the Gimbel ring by means of a shaft in the top of the assembly . This shaft has two big square journals that the steering lever and Do not try to tighten these bolts up before making shure they rotate . You must loosen before you tighten . There is a lot of oxidation that builds between the bolt ( stainless steel ) and the gimbel ring 9aluminum ) The white powder will hold the bolt so secure you will break the bolt before you increase crush on the shaft . There is a bolt on the steering lever . It is a nightmare to get to and impossible from inside the boat with engine installed . There is a workaround ; but it to is a nightmare , so leave that alone for now . if you need to explore this option ; buy the kit mercruiser has to gain access to this bolt . The kit contains a template to drill the gimbel housing open so you can reach the bolt to tighten it . The kit also contains two 3 / 4 inch plastic pipe plugs . It does not contain the pipe tap required to thread the holes after the work is complete . This repair kit also works to hold the outdrive at the proper alignment with the Gimbel bearing . See when this shaft gets bad enough your Gimbel ring will drop to the bottom of the lower shaft . This extra play up and down of the Gimbel causes vibration and wear and tare on engine coupler . Here is what I would do to check to see if you have a helm problem or a Gimbel problem . Open engine compartment and have one person view the steering lever , take a second person and swing the outdrive side to side . If the steering lever moves out of synchronization with the drive then the problem is the Gimbel ring . You could also look at the steering lever and rotate the steering wheel . See when the steering lever " picks up with a change of direction of steering wheel . The boat soaks in water for 6 months a year . It is actually run 4 to 8 hours a year . Maximum . Whalersailor 1,817 posts January 25 , 2012 Do yourself a favor and check the gimble ring for wear and tear like kssboat said before spending money , you just described worm gimble ring symptoms and I would hate for you to replace the steering unit only to then have to replace the gimble ring and associated parts . I recently did the gimble ring replacement on my outdrive and it was n ' t that bad once I overcame the fear of drilling 2 x 3 / 4 " holes into the transom housing . All in all I think I spent about 1500 deer in tools and parts , but I also replaced all the bellows , tilt trim switches as well as the lower mercathode emitter . Be careful if you try to tighten the two nuts on the steering shaft / gimble ring , make sure you do n ' t go over 50 foot pounds of torque ( double check this as I am going from memory ) as you may snap the u - bolt and you will have to pull the gimble ring to replace it with a new one . Good luck . Where in NJ are you Cyclops2 ? Duane2135 1,984 posts Mansfield , TX January 25 , 2012 The gimbal issue does n ' t have as much to do with hours used as it does with your boat sitting in the water . The constant wave action causes the lower unit to sway back and forth . This action wears on the gimbal and steering arm . Personally , I like to secure my unit to keep it from swaying when transporting , or leaving it in the water for an extended period . I use a bungie cord to one side .

Some mares are very ' primitive ' when in season - they absolutely have ONLY ONE THING ON THEIR MIND . They could make rampant teenage boys look like eunuchs - no offense intended . 10 days is a little long , it is usually 3 - 5 days . It may have just been the delight of so many males about . If she goes on like that , I think it would be better not to ride her then You can get an injection which will stop the mare from cycling . I do n ' t know the price , but I think it is a great thing because she should stay on a more even keel . Speak to your Vet about the injections . You can spay mares but it is not common and probably expensive with of course the risks of the general anaesthetic . Good luck with your equine sex - goddess ! ! Pagan murramai 09 - 01 - 05 , 02 : 14 AM One of my friends gives her mare " Moody Mare " which I think is a herbal product which settles her . As far as being in season so long , it might be worth a vet check . I used to breed cashmere goats and one sex crazed doe needed a hormone injection because she had a condition which from memory was called cystic ovaries that caused her to stay in season . ernie 09 - 01 - 05 , 02 : 23 AM Vicguy normally your mare will be in season for 5 to 7 days . Occasionally , in early Spring , she will stay in for longer periods - it ' s called " springheating " . The cycle is 21 days - so if she comes into season on the first of the month , she will ( most likely ) go off on the 8th , then come back in on the 22nd of that month , go off on the 29th and come back in again around the 12th of the following month . . There ' s Some mares are quite embarrassing when they ' re in season ( breeders love ' em like that though ) and some mares you ' d never really know . There are herbs you can feed which are claimed to quell the hormonal behaviour and there ' s also a product " Regumate " which is added to the feed every day and prevents the mare from cycling . Check with your vet on this one because I ' m not sure of any side effects - except that once the Regumate stops , the mare will have a very Perhaps though , the excitement of a new place , new horses to meet , leaving her old friends , had a lot to do with her behaviour and after a few months she may settle and not behave like this again . Some good solid training - so she pays more attention to you - would probably help a lot also . Good luck : - ) Marilyn 09 - 01 - 05 , 06 : 55 AM It was probably the excitement of the move too . I ' ve had several mares and just treat them like geldings with no problems . Ride when you want to , correct any unwanted behaviour as if they were geldings , whether in season or not . Remember , the Arabs only rode their mares ! violetsmum 10 - 01 - 05 , 03 : 55 AM You can TELL a gelding what to do , but you must ASK a mare politely . Violetsmum sooki 10 - 01 - 05 , 02 : 47 PM sactly simron 11 - 01 - 05 , 03 : 37 AM Marilyn , why did the Arabs only ride their mares ? I have heard that a long time ago , in battles etc that stallions were not ridden as they may like the enemy / oppositions mares and not obey their riders ? ? ? I have also been told that mares have more stamina ? I have ridden in Arab countries in the last few years and all sexes of ( Arab ) horses were used . I guess you ' re referring from a more historical point of view although I think some groups / tribes still do Nicko 12 - 01 - 05 , 02 : 15 PM I have been lurking for quite a while and have finally come out of hiding and post a reply . I have always been a mare person , and have always favoured them over geldings . 10 days does seem a long time to be in season , but horses are individuals , and the 21 day cycle with 5 days of heat is just an average " text book " example . If she is never " out " that is when to start to worry . Not riding a mare when she is in season will teach her that she does n ' t get ridden when in , if that makes sense - that is , her behaviour will get worse . Trust me , I bought a horse that put me in hospital for 6 days and I now set of metal detectors at the airport . I since found out that her previous owner would never ride her when in season , and would hop off and lead her if she played up . They are all different , it is pretty obvious when my Paint filly is in season , as she squats for me for some unknown reason . Pretty embarassing when you are showing friends your lovely horse , and all the get to see is the blunt end . My mini mare is a poker player , and I think she may be in season when she bites me when I brush her . I have been told that the Arabs rode mares so they had a supply of milk - but I ca n ' t see how that would have worked as I thought they dried up pretty quick once they did n ' t have a foal at foot . Marilyn 13 - 01 - 05 , 03 : 27 AM Yes , I ' m talking Arabs from a historical perspective . I ' m really not sure ! Maybe they were more reliable than the stallions ? Maybe they realised how good mares really are ? Mabye the stallions were too easily distracted ? ( Or maybe they believed the women should do all the work while the men stayed at home eating and breeding ! ! : - ) ) I like mares , they might try you out initially but once you ' ve " got " them , they work with you in a way that only mare owners would understand . Autumn 13 - 01 - 05 , 03 : 33 AM I think have heard / read / watched movie that the Arabs didnt ride their stallions in battle etc as they where too valuable to loose . And also good bloodlines where fought over and if the enemy got the stallion - well there would go 100 yrs or more of breeding . Cyberhorse Mel 13 - 01 - 05 , 04 : 46 AM An interesting point - when I worked in the UK I was amazed to discover that the polo yards are full of mares ! ! Their explanation was that geldings are not brave enough . If a gelding gets bumped in a game he will back off , whereas a mare will get aggro and go back in and have another go - that explains a lot when you are training them - dont get aggro cos they will come back fighting . . . . I am working with a moody mare - she is an interesting case . . . . she can be very dominant towards other horses and snitchy to aids early on in her training session . She kicks out at the whip and can buck if you get too " up her " - but when she softens and works like an absolute superstar and is the nicest horse in the world . She pulls faces at the start of the work and makes me laugh - then at the end of her session - she is so pleased with Mares are certainly not for everyone - but I see it is a challenge to expand my understanding . They are an entire and are more like what a horse really is - we get a false idea of a gelding ' s generosity as we have taken away their other brain . Having worked with geldings for years I am now trying to develop a good understanding of working with the girls . I try to explain to my pupils to encourage their mares to make them think that any aid was the horse ' s idea - then they dont seem to get so grumpy . . . . .preparation for transitions seems to be a major key . If you give them plenty of small signals and get them to offer you the transition it all goes well , the moment they think you are hassling them they get grumpy - that is my experience anyway . We certainly work our mares throughout their season , but take into account their diffeent moods and sometimes just hack them out or take them for a gallop to get rid of that angst . . . . . .I encourage all the riders that have moody mares to keep record of when their mare is in season so that they can plan their competitions around the mares season . You need to work with the hormones not against them . . . Ahhh horses - they are wonderful teachers arent they . LindaH 13 - 01 - 05 , 06 : 49 AM All our mares are shocking $ luts ! When they are in season they just love everyone and really play up to the poor confused geldings . One in particular tries to stop and squat whenever you apply the leg aid ( not good for impulsion marks in your dressage test ) . One is more likely to kick at that time so you have to be a little bit careful when handling her from the ground . None of them are really nasty or do anything that would preclude them from being ridden at that time . We just Passage 13 - 01 - 05 , 08 : 25 AM This is a little off the topic , can anyone who has had success with herbal treatments for moody mares comment on the results . There must be breeders out there who have to deal with not so pleasant mares . I have purchased a mare in the last 3 months and she has proven to be a fabulous riding horse and to handle while tied up she is great . But she has proven to be a little nasty in the paddock . I was told that she can be a " pig " at meal times . But having her agisted and not doing the feeding and rugging myself I worry about her injury the property manager . When she was in season last she charged at the manager and tried to double barrel her and then once she realised she missed as the manager climbed over the fence she went for another go . She was in season at the time . My query is that I am hesitant to put her on medication if her " in season " behaviour is strictly related to only paddock behaviour . Whilst her riding behaviour is fabulous in season or not . If her paddock behavious improved I would have my perfect horse . We can dream ! ! ! NYP 14 - 01 - 05 , 03 : 37 AM Yup . violetsmum 14 - 01 - 05 , 06 : 11 AM Passage , A client and I tried Meadowsweet Moody Mare herbal mix on a very tempermental duchess of a mare she owns . It definitely took the edge off her . Luckily for me my own mares are very sweet and its often hard to tell when they are in season . . . even the old broodmare ! VM Linda_H . . . . interesting to read about the mare that squats when you apply the leg aid . . . makes me wonder if it has something to do with the nerves / milk veins running along her side ? Just curious ( as you get ) since foals follow the sides of mare to her teats . Just a wild idea . VM NYP 14 - 01 - 05 , 06 : 25 AM Another suggestion - my mare comes into season after a float trip ( short or long , any time of year ) ! ! Must be the vibrations ! ! ! She then becomes very tarty & embarrassing with squatting , squirting , flirting , etc . Drives all the males nuts ! I must say that I am lucky enough in that she is still great to handle , so I do n ' t have any experience in using supplements to suppress hormones , sorry . LindaH 14 - 01 - 05 , 06 : 28 AM Hi VM , we had n ' t thought of that one . We thought it may be an over developed reflex that makes them squat to be served when something grabs them from behind . Your explanation also makes sense . This mare has never been served or had a foal so whatever causes it is some sort of inbuilt reflex . 14 - 01 - 05 , 06 : 31 AM Maybe I need some horny gelding herbs for my horse . He goes to shows and brings all the mares around him into season . The last event we went to he had one in season by lunchtime } > . Yes he is a real gelding , I was there when the vet fixed him up : D . 14 - 01 - 05 , 09 : 41 AM When I was young I had a pony mare that would squat if a car came up behind her . Very embarrassing for a pubescent girl riding on the road ! ! Taff 16 - 01 - 05 , 01 : 24 AM This rings a bell - that the Arabs wanted a milk supply . This they would surely have had , if they kept milking the mares themselves . And the supply would adjust itself to how often and how much the mares were milked . | [

mastered the art of club sandwiches I would like to make some for an afternoon tea party and mine never seem to quite make it Some of the ones I try at the deli are delicious Would love some help Lorraine Quote Judy Re club sandwiches August 30 2003 0716PM I make club sandwiches alot to take as a plate and find best to use bread from the freezer let thaw slightly I prefer to cut crusts off before puting together I mostly use mashed egg as one filling as its moist and holds to bread well and I use meat for the other filling Quote Helen M Re club sandwiches August 30 2003 0751PM I make these for luncheon finger food meetings I always use a mixture of wholemeal brown and multigrain bread it makes a more substantial and interesting sandwichs I use margerine and cut the crusts off before cutting them in to 3 long lengths Try fillings like Smoked chicken breast cranberry sauce and cucumber Tinned tuna mixed with lemon zestblack pepper mayonaise and alfalfa Finely chopped cooked chicken mixed with mayonaise and chopped mint leaves and cucumber Corned beef and pickle Roast beef and finely sliced gerkins Finely chopped pistachios creamed cheese and alfalfa peanut butter grated carrot and alfalfa Roast pork and apple sauce Ham grainy mustard lettuce and tomato I usually make them early morning for lunch but have also made the night before with good results Cut and wrap with cling film and refridgerate Note they are better if they arent served straight out of the fridge too cold Hope that helps Quote Gail Re club sandwiches August 30 2003 1101PM When I make club sandwiches if I want them to be delicate sandwiches then I use thin sliced bread I like creamed cheese ham and pineapple creamed cheese smoked salmon and sprouts curried egg lettuce and ham cottage cheese dates and ginger creamed chicken lettuce and tomato Quote kathryn Re club sandwiches August 31 2003 0333AM I make alot of club sandwiches but always the same way ham egg and tomato I buy the bread the same day I make the sandwiches as stale bread just doesnt cut the same Ive found cheaper bread no good and a sharp knife is essential I use four slices and butter right to the corner even though the crusts are cut off The first filling is ham with mustard and then the next filling is egg that has been well seasoned parsley goes down a treat and the third filling is thinly sliced tomato that has been left to Kathryn Quote kathryn Re club sandwiches August 31 2003 0335AM I forgot to add the sandwiches must be covered to stop them drying out Kathryn Quote Lyn Re club sandwiches August 31 2003 0447AM An electric knife is wonderful to cut club sandwiches with Also I do 14 clubs rather than fingers Thats cutting into two triangles and then into triangles again The trick is to try and make them even sized They look great when trayed up close together pointy bit facing skywards Fillings Fetta Pesto Lettuce Vine Tomatos Shaved Ham Mustard Butter and Egg Shredded Chicken MangoApricot Chutney Lettuce Rare Roast Beef Cheese and Onion Shredded Chicken Sate Sauce Lettuce and Cucumber Smoked Salmon Cream Cheese and Fresh Dill Watercress and Lightly Curried Egg Tuna Salad with very finely chopped spring onion celery and red pepper with some mayo and Lettuce Ham Pesto Vine Tomatos and Lettuce Roast Beef Onion Marmalade Red Onion Rings Lettuce Roast Beef Kausandi Chutney and Lettuce Corned Beef Mustard Pickle and Lettuce Where there is only meat chutney and lettuce I use a little of the chutney on both layers of bread I always use Iceberg lettuce for clubs The soft ones just dont have the neccesary crunch IMO Lyn PNth Quote Helen M Re club sandwiches September 01 2003 0418AM Fantastic ideas for fillings everyone Im feeling more enthusiastic about sandwiches again Lyn can you tell me what Kausandi Chutney is Quote Lorraine Re club sandwiches September 02 2003 0804AM Thank you for that info I guess the other essential thing is to keep the fillings thinly sliced There is a lovely egg filling that is combined with smoked salmon and finely sliced cucumber and I am always at a loss to work out just what the egg is mixed with it is really creamy maybe homemade or a good quality mayo Lorraine Quote Lyn Re club sandwiches September 03 2003 0101AM Kasaundi is a hot and spicy Indian Chutney based on tomatoes I eat bowlsful of the stuff Just the best with roast beef and for heaps of things I buy the food service 22kg buckets but have seen it in small jars in some supermarkets Made by Cotterill and Rouse Give your tastebuds a treat and try it Also on the lookout for any condiments by Goan Cuisine I think Sabato stock it but if anyone sees it in a supermarket PLEASE let me know How do these sound to you all Spiced Goa Limes Spiced Blood Orange

Aleeya has been on Prednisone for 4 days - - she was doing 50mg ( 25x2 per day ) for 3 days , then yesterday and today are the start of 25mg 1x per day . After a week of this , she ' ll be down to 25mg every other day . I knew that she would want to drink more water , and have to pee more . She is in no way " in trouble " for any puddles . What I do n ' t know is why she is peeing in the bed she shares during the day with Haka ? She ' s not peeing in her bed in our room , just down here . I understand why she ' d pee in front of the back door ( we ' re redoing our deck / yard and the stairs are going in tomorrow . . . horrible timing but at least they ' ll be in soon ) . I just do n ' t get why she ' s peeing in the bed ? We are taking her out at 7am , 9am , 12pm , 3pm , 7pm , 9 - 10pm , 12 - 12 : 30am . I would think that would be enough , but if we leave the house , there ' s a puddle when we get back . sigh . Any advice ? I ' m trying to limit her water , but it ' s hard b / c then Haka might not be getting enough water , so I ' m putting little amounts down for her / him , frequently . I do n ' t think she gets up to drink in the middle of the night - - the puddles are found during the day actually , not early in the morning . Insights , advice , comiseration . . . all are welcome . I ' m really not sure I ' m handling this right . Oh - - and should I be washing the pee - affected with anything in particular ? I ' m just doing hot water , detergent , and Oxy powder . I heard vinegar maybe ? Ideas welcome there too . Soren # 2 greyhndz Greyaholic Community Supporter 2,573 posts Location : NH Posted 10 May 2010 - 05 : 23 AM Is it happening when she sleeps ? Of course the pred increased her urinary output , but that combined with a little spay incontinence could cause involuntary urination . The other possibility that ' s always on the list is a UTI . If there ' s any question , I ' d bring a urine sample in to the vet to be tested . If there ' s no infection , and this occurs only when she ' s sleeping , discuss with the vet possibly putting her onto DES or another med used for spay incontinence ( I do n ' t like PPA ) , or since she wo n ' t be on this dose of prednisone for long , her urinary output will decrease in the next week or two . I ' d probably opt to cover the bed with incontinence pads temporarily until she ' s voiding more normally . If the urination persists even after her pred has been tapered down , then you can discuss with your vet what your options are . How is Aleeya ' s eye doing ? ETA : I ' m not a fan of restricting water - it ' s a quick way for a dog to become dehydrated since she ' ll keep producing urine anyway . For washing : I usually use bleach , but either an enzymatic cleaner or vinegar should work well . For wiping down , I usually use an enzymatic cleaner , and I keep the cushions covered with some type of waterproof lining so the filling stays clean . The incontinence pads really help , too .

Short of a diaper I do n ' t know what else you can do . And I would do that . She might be peeing in her sleep and maybe she ' s spending more time in that bed ? Or maybe she is trying to keep her pee to one area - one that is n ' t so close to anyone . Hard to know what a dog is thinking . Poor baby though . I think that ' s hard on them when they ca n ' t control their urine . They want to , and know they should be able to , but ca n ' t . So I think it makes them feel bad . Like they ' re bad dogs , even though WE know they are n ' t . Joe always seemed so SAD when he peed in the house .

It probably would n ' t hurt to take a sample to the vet though ( we did ) . If that ' s clear , it might be that she ' s peeing in that bed because she can still smell it - you need to use an enzymatic cleaner to make Accidents are probably unavoidable , though - when Kelly was on a higher dose he ' d have accidents in the house no matter how often we let him out , and sometimes would go out , come back to the house , turn round and go straight back into the yard for another pee . Once we ' d made sure there was nothing else going on ( UTI etc ) we decided that if the pred was making him better , a bit of pee was a small price to pay in the short term . So please do n ' t beat yourself up about it ! You ' re not doing anything wrong . . . she ' s not doing anything wrong . . . and it will get better .

While she was on it she became incontinent . She would be asleep , suddenly feel the urge , try to get up to run to the door but as she stood she would pee all over her bed - she could n ' t control it . Since she had to be on the prednisone for a length of time the vet also put her on meds for incontinence . Ask your vet what he / she thinks . # 8 Guest_sorenkkg_ * 10 May 2010 - 02 : 30 PM I knew you guys would have great advice ! I do n ' t think she ' s peeing while she is sleeping , b / c she sleeps the whole night upstairs in our room , and no puddles there . She can also go a good 4hrs and not pee . . . I think it has to do with us leaving the house somehow . The day ' s I ' m home all day , no puddles . If I go out to run an errand , puddle . Hmm . I will pick up some enzymatic cleaner , I ' m assuming at any pet supplies store ? We ' ve not done panties yet ? I ' m going to keep taking her out every few hours while it ' s day , and the stairs to our deck should be done in a few hours , so by tonight , we should be able to just run her out into the backyard . I ' m hoping Batmom is right , 7 - 10 days for some tapering off would be very cool . I do n ' t actually smell anything - - from what I can see when we ' re outside , her pee is SO diluted . . . she usually hardly drinks at all when she ' s healthy , so her pee is very yellow , and now it ' s almost clear ( um , maybe like Crystal Light lemonade ? very pale anyway ) . Ok , enzymatic cleaner - - I ' ll wait till DH is home though before I go out . I did decide to pull up the dog bed she and Haka share ( that ' s the pee one ) until this is a bit more under control . Replaced with more easily washed blankets ( though the bed is mammoth , so it ' s all 100 % washable , thankfully ) . Jordan - - short story long - - her eyes do n ' t seem to be bothering her at all anymore , and SHE " S EATING ! ! ! ! I think she ' s probably put back on at least a pound , maybe 2 ? Her poop is still fine , and we ' ve had success in giving her pills with some new " treats " - - liverwust at night , soft fresh food in the morning ( 1 bite for each pill , then a refill of the bowl as a meal ) . Huge load off my mind now that she ' s eating . . . . one worry down , peeing and underlying issue to the uveitis still to go . Oh , and then there ' s still Haka ' s toe mystery . thanks all !

Wondering if you ' ve given Gabapentin to your dog , at what dosage and what effects you saw , both good and bad . Particularly interested in those of you who have used it for palliative care for osteo and for LS . Also wondering about timing of meds . We ' ve increased Neyla ' s meds to 25 mg Deramaxx 2x / day and 75 mg Tramadol 3x / day . I did n ' t feel that was quite enough so the vet said we could add a 4th 75 mg dose of Tramadol or add Gabapentin , but she did n ' t want us to do both at the same time . I opted for the Gabapentin b / c I thought it would be tough schedule wise to administer 4 doses of Tramadol spaced apart , adn b / c Gabapentin should address a The bottle said 2 tablets every 12 hours , which made me realize that I give things 8 hours apart b / c some things are given 3x , so basically meds are given at 8 am , 4 pm , & midnight . Would it be better to space the Deramaxx and Gabapentin further apart you think , say 8 & 8 instead to maintain a more even level of pain control throughout the day ? If I do that , do I give dinner with the Gab / Der at 8 or with the Tramadol and other holistic Am I making any sense here ? Do you think I over think everything ? !

" # 2 Brindles Greyaholic Members 3,787 posts Location : Upstate SC Posted 27 October 2010 - 12 : 18 AM You might be overthinking , but I ' m right there overthinking with you . Echo is on 50mg Deramaxx once a day . I asked my vet if I could give it twice a day and he said the results are better when given only once . She is also on 100mg Tramadol 3x / day . She had a good first couple weeks on both meds but the effects declined . Two months later she is in as much pain as she was before . Le sigh . I ran out of Tramadol and opted not to refill it . Again , no change . I ' m really interested in Gabapentin so I ' ll be keeping up with this topic . | Rachel | Dewty Trigger , and Charlotte | Missing Dazzle Echo and Julio | Learn what your greyhound ' s life was like before becoming part of yours !

The Deramaxx should be given with a meal the tramadol can be given on an empty tummy if needed .

I know I was prescribed 900mg 3x a day . I now only take 600 1x a day . So you can go pretty high . As for side effects , the only one I ' ve had is that when taken with my sleeping meds it helps me sleep a bit better . On it ' s own though I had no side effects . My father was on it to help with palliative care for fibrosarcoma . It was the only # 5 10,250 posts MD near DC 27 October 2010 - 12 : 26 AM I had always heard once a day for Deramaxx too , but my oncologist said I could do either and after further discussion we agreed twice a day was more likely to maintain an even level .

I know you mentioned that it did n ' t seem to help Neyla ' s pain earlier but that could be due to the smaller dose . To me , it ' s kind of like taking aspirin for a migrane . You would definitely want something strong enough to knock out the pain first and then try to stay ahead of it . Onyx ' s pain increased very quickly and I noticed a big difference between 100 mg and 150 mg when it got to that point . I did not know he had cancer until the last day . This was pain management for his arthritis which he had for over a year . When first diagnosed , I tried all kinds of different NSAIDS and supplements and nothing seemed to help much until we added Tramadol ( a much lower dose then , of course ) . I did a lot of research on Tramadol and really found nothing harmful in the way of side effects , etc . Maybe your vet would consider letting you increase each dose instead of adding the extra one . I think you would still be under the maximum dosage . We used Rimadyl twice a day and Tramadol three times . . . 8AM , 4PM , & midnight . I just gave the Rinadyl with each meal . After seeing his last x - ray and the damage done by his cancer , I was just so grateful that I had already been giving him the right meds to ease his pain .

I think your statement above is where we ' re at . The vet had said she did n ' t want me to give 50 mg 2x / day for more than a day or so so we agreed on 50 mg / day plus adding the Gabapentin to the Tramadol , but I decided last night that I would do 50 twice today to try to get ahead of it , then go back to the 50 daily tomorrow . Tonight she ' ll have her first full dose of Gabapentin My oncologist seemed to really want me to give 4 doses of Tramadol if we increase rather than giving more 3x and she also did n ' t want me to do that and the Gabapentin at the same time , but we ' ll do what we have to do to address her pain . Hoping the extra boost from the Deramaxx and the addition of Gabapentin will be good for now . # 11 Wonder 26,558 posts Minneapolis , MN 27 October 2010 - 07 : 22 PM Is the Gabapentin the same for humans ?

I do n ' t know what the dosing will be on that . The vet gave her a shot yesterday for her pain and then I gave her the trama and deramax last night . This morning she had 100 mg . tramadol and then again at 2 pm . I do n ' t think the meds are enough . We / ve been fighting thyroid cancer and have done really well with that and then to be hit with the osteo dx yesterday is just devastating .

At the point where we were discussing this , Neyla ' s Deramaxx and Tramadol had already been increased so her pain was under control although not gone . So I believe her feeling was that we could probably control her pain by doing one or the other and if we did both , there was a much greater chance of it knocking Neyla out . So it was n ' t a " you ca n ' t ever increase either again " it was just a " for now , try one or the other and see if Gypsy ' s mom , please come join us in teh osteo thread if you have n ' t already .

After a few days of set up , modifying my templates and adjusting my Global Settings , I was not able to upload any modules , extensions , templates , etc . and continuously received the ' Unable to Find Install Package ' This was not a legacy issue . The Solution : During my setup , I had enabled my FTP but later turned it off in my Global Settings . However , what I discovered was that my FTP was not actually ' turning off ' . When I would deactivate it , and save my settings , the next time that I logged into my Global Settings , it would be back on . To resolve this , I went directly into my configuration . php file and manually adjusted the FTP settings . var $ ftp_enable = ' 0 ' ; var $ ftp_host = ' ' ; var $ ftp_port = ' ' ; var $ ftp_user = ' ' ; var $ ftp_pass = ' ' ; var $ ftp_root = ' ' ; So , in short - - try adjusting your FTP settings directly in your configuration . php file .

I wanted to install the docman and fireboard extensions and like many other had problems . I unzipped instalation files and ftp ' d to my host server but kept getting messages about being unable to find install package . After much rumaging about on this forum and other sites I discovered what is meant by absolute path .

Regards Chris rycrostud 18 Wed Aug 24 , 2005 7 : 57 am rycrostud Mon Feb 18 , 2008 4 : 28 pm After reading through this thread and a couple of others I came to a slightly different solution . This may be of help to others . In order to fix it I had to change " Path to Temp - folder " to the full file path to the tmp folder within the Joomla installation , rather than the global server / tmp folder . I ' m not yet sure why this would make a difference but from a security point of view it makes better sense . There is more testing to be done but at the moment it looks like the FTP file layer will work properly meaning NONE of my files will need to be globally writeable by PHP : - ) barua 24 Tue Sep 19 , 2006 6 : 09 pm barua Tue Feb 26 , 2008 10 : 24 pm Thanks Guys .

PPFedin 1 Fri Sep 12 , 2008 7 : 37 am PPFedin Fri Sep 12 , 2008 7 : 47 am Thank you for this theme ! This is common problem with all joomlas . First of all it takes a lot of time to figure out what the problem is with each server manually . I used 1.0 for a long time and decided to try 1.5 for the first time and the problem differed with 1.0 . I had this message in 1.0 , and what worked for that : - parameter " session autostart " must be ON in PHP server options , and " safe mode " - OFF - all required permissions must be writable ( shown in joomla administration menu ) And in 1.5 this problem was solved with setting 777 CHMOD to " tmp " . I hope someone could find it useful . P.S Greetings from Ukraine ! muang Fri May 30 , 2008 12 : 58 pm muang Mon Sep 22 , 2008 1 : 35 pm I have tried your steps but I still get this when I tried to install a package . http : / / img232 . imageshack . us / my . php ? image = jfolderbk2 . png Any help would be appreciated . . Do i need to start all over from scratch and install a fresh one ? Mac2605 3 Fri Oct 03 , 2008 3 : 51 am Mac2605 Thu Oct 09 , 2008 4 : 25 am Hi guys , I had the same problem and all the above did n ' t quite solve it . but I managed ( after many tries . . . ) to find a workaround . The issue in my humble opinion is a bug in the way Joomla handle the info provided in the configuration . php file about path to the tmp folder I run Joomla 1.5.7 This is hosted on a VPS Server Linux ( kernel 2.6.9 - 67 . 0 . 4 . ELsmp ) Apache 2.2.8 ( unix ) PERL 5.8.8 PHP version 5.2.5 MySQL version 5 . 0 . 51 . 0 - community The FTP account I created to handle joomla gives me access to the folder where Joomla is installed the line 31 that informs the system about the FTP root then is var $ ftp_root = ' / ' ; When I run the FTP layer on , in order to be able to successfully modify the configuration . php file the path to the tmp folder must be ' / tmp ' ie line 61 in my configuration . php file is var $ tmp_path = ' / tmp ' ; Now IF I try to Install and extension package with these setting I am able to upload the package all right ( joomla installs the zip file on the / tmp folder - I can see that with FileZilla ) BUT I have a very frustrating message ' unable to find install package ' Here what worked for me . I had to change the configuration . php file to modify the var $ tmp_path to the path the Joomla detected for FTP on the first install . for me it was var $ tmp_path = ' / home / VPSNAME / public_html / FOLDER / tmp ' ; where VPSNAME was the name of my VPS server and FOLDER the folder where I installed joomla . In order to find your path yoopilive posted a solution here : http : / / forum . joomla . org / viewtopic . php ? f . . . a&start = 30 once this was done I was not able to modify the configuration . php file in the backend anymore ( JFTP errors ) BUT Tadaaa ! ! I was able to upload and install a package without the ' unable to find install package ' error there is still ( at least ) one issue with this workaround as you ca n ' t modify the configuration . php in the back end with these settings . error is * JFTP : : login : Unable to login * JFTP : : write : Unable to use passive mode Maybe a Joomla expert can have a look at this and tell me if there is a better way ? I hope this helps someone . . . . caspernet 1 Thu Oct 16 , 2008 12 : 15 am caspernet Thu Oct 16 , 2008 12 : 18 am Thanks . That ' s very helpful .

I tried to follow some of the solutions above , I changed the permission of tmp folder to 777 and disable FTP , but still I ca n ' t install some of the components especially the forum components . I tried to install like 3 different forum components but I got the same error UNABLE TO FIND INSTALL PACKAGE . Whats wrong here guys . 16 Sun Feb 08 , 2009 8 : 49 pm New Mexico Mon Mar 09 , 2009 3 : 17 pm In the Config php file I change the following line from : var $ tmp_path = ' / var / www / vhost / mydomain . com / home / httpdocs / tmp ' ; to : var $ tmp_path = ' / tmp ' ; and that worked for me PJI Fri Mar 20 , 2009 8 : 53 pm PJI Fri Mar 20 , 2009 9 : 06 pm Hello all . . .this particular problem is driving me insane . Anyone with a solution or even a new idea out there ? Here is what I am running : Hostmonter for the host company Apache : 2.2.11 ( UNIX ) PHP Version : 5.28 Operating System ( host system that is ) : Linux Joomla Settings : Path to temp : / home / username / public_html / foldername / joom / tmp FTP Settings : Enabled FTP Host : ftp . domainname . com FTP Port : 21 FTP Username : username @ domainname . com FTP Password : * * * * * * * * FTP Root : / home / username / public_html / foldername / joom Foldernames as used above indicate a sub - directory , or more importantly , a separate domain name hosted on my main account . Upon advice from Hostmonster I set the ftp settings and path to temp folder as listed above . I ' ve tried just about everything from this board and dozens of others , including turning off ftp layering , editing config . php ( in main joomla directory and in the tmp directory ) , fresh install ' s , an install to the main domain name . . .and still nothing but the error telling me that the install file can not be found . If anyone out there has a solution I would greatly appreciate hearing from you . Thanks and have a good one . harelguy 11 Mon Mar 23 , 2009 4 : 36 pm harelguy Mon Mar 23 , 2009 4 : 42 pm Another solution : This may have already been stated somewhere , but I had the same problem on my local machine - using php uploads , not FTP . The solution turned out to be quite simple - the PHP upload_max_filesize parameter was too small . This parameter , as its name implies , limits php from uploading any file larger that the size specified . You can check the value of this parameter by using phpinfo ( ) available from Help - > System Info , PHP iformation tab in the Joomla administrator . In default installations , this will probably be 2M . To change it , find the php . ini file ( on my Mac XAMPP install , this was in : / Applications / xampp / xamppfiles / etc ) , and change the value to something reasonable like 5M . Remember to restart your apache after doing this Please read forum rules regarding signatures : http : / / forum . joomla . org / viewtopic . php ? t = 65 premkanth 10 Mon Mar 23 , 2009 4 : 41 pm premkanth Mon Mar 23 , 2009 5 : 01 pm very useful indeed i think it solve most people problem surely mine thanx a lott cheers : - ) jarb1 Sun May 03 , 2009 11 : 28 pm jarb1 Sun May 03 , 2009 11 : 32 pm This was an extremely frustrating problem for me . This is what worked for me : 1 . Go to : " Global Configuration " 2 . Go to : " Server Settings " 3 . My path was set to " / tmp " I changed to : / home / username / public_html / tmp I hope this helps others . . . .

What do you all usually get when you go out to lunch relliott1 Mon , Jun - 02 - 03 , 09 : 46 We have a grocery store near by , so sometimes I will get a roasted chicken breast from the deli or make a salad w / turkey on it at their salad bar . I have also gone to fast food and eaten a burger without the bun . That is 0 carbs . I believe the tuna salad at Subway is OK also ( just without the bun ) , I do n ' t think it ' s made with sugar , but you should ask to make sure . Robin yvonne326 Mon , Jun - 02 - 03 , 09 : 48 I eat a Large Salad - - various . Could be a WENDYS or other fast food Grilled CHicken Caesar Salad or my own salad which includes meats , cheese , raw veggies and usually either Caesar or Ranch dressing . I also eat a piece of baked or grilled chicken or steak ; large hamburger patty with fresh tomato / lettuce & mustard ; 2 beef frankfurters with a side salad ; big bowl of steamed veggies with lots of butter . . . . Lunch is by far my favorite meal . Coriolis Mon , Jun - 02 - 03 , 10 : 14 I ran into the same problem . I work at a hospital , and eat lunch in the hospital caf every day . While there ' s a great salad bar and usually a daily entre of meat ( chicken mostly ) , I became wary about the dressings , or the sauces used on meats , etc . So , I ' ve just started brown bagging it . I bring a large salad , a couple hard boiled eggs ( or deviled eggs if I have time to prepare them ) , and some celery sticks w / cream cheese . The latter I usually save for a mid - afternoon snack . Sometimes I also bring a couple slices of lean ham wrapped around a couple slices of cheddar . Also makes for a good mid - afternoon snack . Jannie Mon , Jun - 02 - 03 , 10 : 24 My favorite lunch is leftovers - last night ' s meat and veggies , and / or a salad . I just heat this up in the microwave , and voila ! A nice , healthy Atkins lunch - : cool : : cool : : cool : erbadger Mon , Jun - 02 - 03 , 10 : 50 I almost always bring food . Its cheaper and much healthier . I have lots of tunafish , low carb tortilla quesadillas , salads etc . Kahena Mon , Jun - 02 - 03 , 10 : 54 If I am going " out " to lunch , a favourite is often a large Salad - Chicken and / or Bacon & Avocado variations are normally on most menu ' s I find . Otherwise its a burger / steakhouse joint - I get them to do me a 6oz burger usually topped with bacon and cheese and ask for a large salad to go with it - instead of the fries and bun . Occasionally I also enjoy Mussells - and again get them to serve me a green salad with it - instead of the usual fries : - ) Hope that helps a little . picaboo Mon , Jun - 02 - 03 , 10 : 57 Fresh Veggies salad with meat and . . . . my only - and its mine only , . . . . . . . . . . . .My . . . .Whipped Cream . . . .

The Subway sandwich as a salad sounds great ! ! I did n ' t know I could do that - thanks for the idea , gotbeer ! gotbeer Mon , Jun - 02 - 03 , 11 : 57 Any Subway sandwich can be converted into a salad - their salad dressings are almost all low - fat , and hence , not suitable to Atkins , though in a pinch their low - fat Italian dressing is also fairly low - carb .

I chose asparagus in garlic butter with parmesan cheese and then another ' starter ' of Italian mixed meats - salami , prosciutto , bresaola , mortadella with a side salad . I did n ' t even want my friend ' s pasta carbonara , did n ' t even tempt me . I had to go out the next day as well so I ordered a rib eye steak and veggies . They brought cauliflower , broccoli and carrots . I ate them all except the carrots and my friend ate those . For every day lunch I usually roast veggies in olive oil and garlic salt and have them with whatever meat I cooked the night before . Or a chicken salad with feta and olives . Tonight I ' m roasting off zucchini and big mushrooms and some asparagus . That ' ll all go into the mix for the week ! Oh and I ' m boiling some eggs too and I already cooked ribs to munch on . : D Oh AND I found nitrate free salami to munch as a snack at work with some sharp cheese . Diet ? What diet ? ? | [

PDA View Full Version : Is squash a starch ? Malishka31 Sun , Apr - 02 - 06 , 11 : 19 i cant figure how to tell if a certain vegetable is a starch or not ? oviously i know potatoes and corn are , but squash i am not sure about . butternut , seems like a starch just by the taste , acorn and spaghetti i have no clue . Does anyone know exaclty how to decipher between when some vegetable is a starch and when its not ? or where i can look this up ? Thankyou JDJD2004 Sun , Apr - 02 - 06 , 11 : 29 It depends on the type of squash . None are techinically " starches , " but some have higher sugar content than others and may have an impact on blood sugar . Acorn squash is higher in sugar than summer or yellow squash and spaghetti squash . Generally , if it tastes sweeter ( I use the color as a rule of thumb . Orange = higher sugar ) , than you should use in moderation in OWL or avoid during induction . I believe DANDR lists the accpetable induction squashes , but I do n ' t have my nikkil Sun , Apr - 02 - 06 , 12 : 15 Go to www . fitday . com ( it ' s free ) and check out the different carb counts for squashes . Zucchini is super - low and I use that all the time , even on Induction . Spaghetti squash is great to use in place of pasta , topped with meatballs and tomato sauce and lots of fresh parmesan : yum : Depends on where you are in daily carb allowance on whether squash ( and how much of it and what kind ) fits into your meal plan or not . Oh , another thing - mashed turnip with lots of butter and pepper ( can add some parmesan or other cheese , too ) is a great substitute for potatoes . Can be shredded for fried potatoes , turnip fries , etc . nikkil Sun , Apr - 02 - 06 , 12 : 33 Spaghetti Squash : Amount Per 1 cup , cooked Calories 41.85 Total Fat 0.403g Total Carbohydrate 10.01g Dietary Fiber 2.17g Protein 1.02g ( 7.84g ECC per cup , cooked ) Acorn Squash Amount Per 1 cup , mashed Calories 83.3 Total Fat 0.196g Total Carbohydrate 21.51g Dietary Fiber 6.37g Protein 1.64g ( 15.14g ECC per cup , cooked and mashed ) Butternut Squash Amount Per 1 cup , mashed Calories 93.6 Total Fat 0.168g Total Carbohydrate 24.12g Dietary Fiber 0g Protein 2.95g ( 24.12g ECC per cup , cooked and mashed ) Malishka31 Sun , Apr - 02 - 06 , 13 : 55 i did use fit day , and i know the carb content , but i mean what techinically constitutes the classification of " starch " does higher carb mean starch ?

White potato digests faster ( turns to sugar ) than sweet potato . . . .so the glycemic index of white potato is higher than it is for sweet potato . When using the glycemic index , you want low numbers , under 50 , for it to be considered low .

Although mazda ' s parchment interior is very light , almost 60s caddy / lincoln interior tone , they are still modern day leather that are heavily treated , so it can take a lot of abuse and still look good . Cleaning any treated upholstery is same : Start with something gentle like a lexol leather cleaner and use a microfiber towel to wipe it off . In 90 % of the cases , this is all you need for regular maintenance . If the stains are stubborn or if your leather is really dirty ( will happen in time ) , get some luke warm water , mild soap and scrub daddy ( available in BBB and other stores ) . Spray a little water mixed with mild soap and start scrubbing gently with ' scrub daddy ' , wipe MilR is offline Quote Quick Reply Reply Previous Thread | Next Thread Thread Tools Show Printable Version Show Printable Version Email this Page Email this Page Posting Rules You may post new threads You may post replies may not post attachments may not edit your posts BB code is On Smilies are On [ IMG ] code is HTML code is Off Trackbacks are Pingbacks Refbacks Forum Rules Premium Vendor Showcase Recent Discussions 44 110 Attachment ( s ) MazdaMetalhead ' s Wagon . . .

I emailed back : " Ok , thanks , but I need to have my mobile phone numbers added , in case a host has to get a hold of me , here they are " . I got an email back 10 minutes later , " Ok , your phone numbers are all verified , and have been added to your profile " . They never called them to see if I or my wife answered .

I finished in 1 : 18 . Have you done any swim TT ' s yet in the pool ? As a reference my 30 min TT was 1600m or so . Open water will be significantly different than in the pool . Make sure you swim some in open water or there will be no fun in whoville when the water boils . Get comfortable and minimize the anxiety by swimming within yourself and out of the pack if you can . Mentally you will be better off if you have open water . If you are comfortable in a pack then find soem feet to follow . You may not believe you can draft in the water but you can and it works . Plus you will be more comfortable and spend less time sighting ( assuming the person you are drafting knows where they are going ) . 2 : 20 is loads of time , do n ' t even worry about it . 10.5 hrs to be off the bike and 17 total .

I need to read - - > process - - > write , for each individual file as I need to apply some transformation logic on the data . For each input file there would be a corresponding output file . so for 300 input files we would have 300 output files . At the end , all the 300 output files are needed to be merged into a single file which would be compressed and then transferred to a remote location over FTP / SFTP . Say , every hour we would have to deal with a new set of 300 files on which we would be required to apply the above processing , so we would be scheduling the above job per hour . 1 . How to handle multi file processing in the above scenario using Spring Batch ? 2 . How to make the above processing to happen in multiple threads ? Please suggest . Thanks in advance . Tags : None grathi Junior Member Join Date : May 2013 Posts : 6 # 2 May 31st , 2013 , 05 : 28 AM We can read multiple input files using MultiResourceItemReader and set FlatFileItemReader as it ' s delegate . But the question which is yet to be answered is , do we have an ItemWriter which when used with MultiResourceItemReader would write an output file for each individual input file which is being read . The target is that if we have 10 input files then there should be 10 corresponding output files to be written . It would be really helpful if someone can give some insights into it . bruce . szalwinski Member Jan 2013 37 # 3 Jun 10th , 2013 , 03 : 35 PM I found a solution to this in the partitionFileJob example from the spring - batch source , spring - batch - samples / src / main / resources / jobs / partitionFileJob . xml . You can download source from http : / / static . springsource . org / sprin . . .downloads .html # 4 Jun 10th , 2013 , 11 : 01 PM Thanks Bruce . . .partitionFileJob is the answer which I was looking for . . .It worked . . .I was able to find it last week but could not post it here . . . It also has the capability to launch multiple threads for multiple files . . . Thanks once again . bruce . szalwinski Member Jan 2013 37 # 5 Jun 11th , 2013 , 08 : 58 AM Glad it worked for you . In the " multiple threads for multiple files " scenario , can you tell if each thread gets its own partition ? Or are there multiple threads in the same partition ? # 6 Jun 11th , 2013 , 04 : 11 PM I wrote a quick little test where I put specific ids in three different files . File 1 got ids that look like 1 . . . , File 2 got ids that look like 2 . . . . , File 3 got ids that look like 3 . . . . I wrote a FlatFileItemWriter that spits out the thread and the ids that are being written . Code : < job id = " widgetLogProcessorJob " xmlns = " http : / / www . springframework . org / schema / batch " > < step id = " start " > < partition step = " partitionWidgetLogs " partitioner = " partitioner " > < handler grid - size = " 7 " task - executor = " taskExecutor " / > < / partition > < / step > < / job > < bean id = " taskExecutor " class = " org . springframework . core . task . SimpleAsyncTaskExecutor " > < property name Code : class MyFlatFileItemWriter < T > extends FlatFileItemWriter < T > { MyFlatFileItemWriter ( ) { super ( ) ; } public void write ( List < ? extends T > items ) throws Exception { ThreadUtils . writeThreadExecutionMessage ( " write " , items ) ; super . write ( items ) ; } } So it looks like each thread works on its own file . thread SimpleAsyncTaskExecutor - 3 - write widgetItems ( s ) with id ( s ) # 200000000001 # 200000000002 # 200000000003 # 200000000004 # 200000000005 # 200000000006 thread SimpleAsyncTaskExecutor - 1 - write widgetItems ( s ) with id ( s ) # 100000000001 # 100000000002 # 100000000003 # 100000000004 # 100000000005 # 100000000006 thread SimpleAsyncTaskExecutor - 2 - write widgetItems ( s ) with id ( s ) # 300000000001 # 300000000002 # 300000000003 # 300000000004 # 300000000005 # 300000000006 There was some concern that FlatFileItemWriters and Readers are not thread safe and now we are having multiple threads . But it looks like the step scope ensures that each thread works on its own file . # 7 Jun 12th , 2013 , 07 : 18 AM Yes , scope = " step " attribute with the respective beans in the context file does the trick . I have another query here : If for 10 input files I create a single output file which would have data from all the 10 input files , I would have to provide the same output file name to each input file and put appendAllowed = " true " under FlatFileItemWriter in context xml . I also intend to add some header lines in the output file which I am achieving by using headerCallback under FlatFileItemWriter . But the issue here is that I am still using the multiFilePartition job and I want the header to be called only once when the output file is created for the first time and for rest of the time it should just append the records from multiple input files into the output file . Please provide your inputs on how should I achieve this ? I am searching for the same and will update if I get any solution . # 8 Jun 12th , 2013 , 09 : 18 AM I figured I could n ' t have it both ways . Either one file or 10 files . If ten threads were writing to the same file , then something would need to coordinate the writes . I like the performance benefits of the partitioned jobs .

http://forum.symthic.com/battlefield-4-general-discussion/5665-change-language-for-bf4/ | Symthic Forum  » Battlefield 4 : General discussion  » Change language for BF4 1 2 3 4 5 6 Skip user information groundwalker ( 137 ) Posts : 383 Date of registration : Jan 16th 2012 Platform : PC Location : Far in the ocean there ' s a tiny island Battlelog : Reputation modifier : 5 Tuesday , October 29th 2013 , 1 : 13pm Change language for BF4 If you ' re like me , who are more comfortable to play games in English instead of poor or strange translation , you may find this a little useful . I do n ' t know if it ' s for everyone , but at least for some versions of BF4 it ' s not possible to change language by just some simple clicking . And what used to work in BF3 does n ' t in BF4 , so I have to find a way around . This is merely how I did , and I ' m not sure which procedures did the job . Firstly you can try this : Quoted from " symthnix " How to change language in Battlefield 4 without re - installation ! - YouTube this is the easiest way . . .registry change didnt worked for so i tried this . . .even though all those files didnt appeared at my folder immediately like in this video I simply deleted all the others that didn t started with en - give it a try , I hope it will help So these are what I have done : ( 1 ) Change the default language of Origin to English ( 2 ) Open regedit : ( a ) Win 7 : Start - > Run - > Type in " regedit " ( b ) Win 8 : Move your cursor to the right edge of your desktop - > Search - > Type " regedit " - > Open it ( 3 ) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE - > SOFTWARE - > Wow6432node - > EA Games - > Battlefield 4 ( 4 ) Modify the data of Locale from whatever to en_US , and likewise for GDFBinary and GDFBinary64 . This is what it looks like : From this step afterward , please follow SammyVimes ' method . You do n ' t have to download the entire game anymore ! Quoted from " SammyVimes " 1 . MOVE the directory to a different location 2 . Start downloading the game again 3 . Pause the download at ~ 1 % ( you should now have the GDF - Binaries with the en_US - extension ) 4 . Paste your saved BF4 - directory in the new created at the original location 5 . Continue the download it should now run finish in no time , because the files are there already ( 6 . ) Experimental : If step 5 doese n ' t work or takes to long you can try not to resume the dowload but cancelling it , and then run a " repair install " afterwards . ( 5 ) Remove BF4 altogether . Removing GDFBinary_ ( your default language ) .dll and GDFBinary64_ ( your default language ) .dll at program files ( x86 ) / origin games / battlefield 4 and then repair install does n ' t work . ( 6 ) Reinstall BF4 . Now you ' ll have BF4 , in English ! Edit : Thanks to Kazama , the method below is proved to be of no use . But I ' d just keep it here so you can know what does n ' t work . Another possibility : ( I ' m too lazy to try ) Perhaps the registry file , locale , at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE - > SOFTWARE - > Wow6432node - > Origin Games - > 1010268 can change the language without needing to remove the entire game . So it ' s step ( 1 ) ~ ( 4 ) plus the above one , then remove GDFBinary_ ( your default language ) .dll and GDFBinary64_ ( your default language ) .dll at program files ( x86 ) / origin games / battlefield 4 and then repair install . You can try this if you do n ' t wanna spend time downloading the game again , but I do n ' t know if it ' s effective . Hope it helps .

Exactly the question many players are asking . and one of the reasons why origin can never achieve the successfulness of steam Tuesday , October 29th 2013 , 4 : 43pm Been looking through reddit . Some people suggest EA did this so people ca n ' t buy cheap versions of the game from 2nd and 3rd world countries . . . . that actually sounds plausible God fucking damnit EA Well , I ' m sure glad I imported from the UK now . Tuesday , October 29th 2013 , 4 : 50pm To me it ' s not as bad as SEGA whose most games are blocked on Steam store , so you can only go for local retailers or other online store .

LightningGus Weatherzone Addict Registered : 12 / 05 / 2012 Posts : 1244 Loc : Kingaroy QLD 434m ASL Hi all . I know this has probably already been asked somewhere , but what does Delta - T mean on a latest weather observations page on the BOM . I ' ve been thinking about it for ages but never thought to ask anyone . 2016 Rainfall : 604mm 2017 Rainfall : 715mm 2018 Rainfall : 660mm Top # 1106472 27 / 05 / 2012 22 : 06 Re : What does ' Delta - T ' mean on the latest weather observations on the BOM ? Re : LightningGus PVW Weatherzone Addict Registered : 28 / 12 / 2010 Posts : 2412 Loc : Thuringowa , Townsville QLD Delta - T shows the difference between the Dry - Bulb and Wet - Bulb Temperatures . For example , at Mackay Airport currently the temperature ( or Dry - Bulb temperature ) is 10.8 degrees . The Delta - T is 1.2 degrees , showing that the Wet - Bulb temperature is 1.2 degrees below the actual Temperature , so is currently 9.6 degrees . The Delta - T is important in Agriculture as it shows farmers when is / is not a good time to spray chemicals on crops / weeds , etc . I recall the ideal spraying conditions are when the Delta - T is between 2 and 8 , anything below and it ' s too humid , anything above and it ' s too dry .

Date Sep 2004 Location Utah and SF Bay Posts 1559 Why Rural America Voted for Trump Why Rural America Voted for Trump By ROBERT LEONARD JAN 5 2017 NY Times Knoxville Iowa One recent morning I sat near two young men at a coffee shop here whom Ive known since they were little boys Now about 18 they pushed away from the table and one said Lets go to work Let the liberals sleep in The other nodded Theyre hard workers As a kid one washed dishes took orders and swept the floor at a restaurant Every summer the other picked sweet corn by hand at dawn for a farm stand and for grocery stores and then went to work all day on his parents farm Now one is a welder and the other is in his first year at a state university on an academic scholarship They are conservative believe in hard work family the military and cops and they know that abortion and socialism are evil that Jesus Christ is our savior and that Donald J They are part of a growing movement in rural America that immerses many young people in a culture not just conservative news outlets but also home and church environments that emphasizes contemporary conservative values It views liberals as loathsome misinformed and weak even dangerous Who are these rural redcounty people who brought Mr Trump into power Im a native Iowan and reporter in rural Marion County Iowa I consider myself fairly liberal My family has mostly voted Democratic since long before I was born To be honest for years even I have struggled to understand how these conservative friends and neighbors I respect and at times admire can think so differently from me not to mention how over 60 percent of voters in my county could have chosen Mr Trump Political analysts have talked about how ignorance racism sexism nationalism Islamophobia economic disenfranchisement and the decline of the middle class contributed to the popularity of Mr Trump in rural America But this misses the deeper cultural factors that shape the thinking of the conservatives who live here For me it took a 2015 precaucus stop in Pella by J C Watts a Baptist minister raised in the small town of Eufaula Okla who was a Republican congressman from 1995 to 2003 to begin to understand my neighbors and most likely other rural Americans as well The difference between Republicans and Democrats is that Republicans believe people are fundamentally bad while Democrats see people as fundamentally good said Mr Watts who was in the area to campaign for Senator Rand Paul We are born bad he said and added that children did not need to be taught to behave badly they are born knowing how to do that We teach them how to be good he said We become good by being reborn born again He continued Democrats believe that we are born good that we create God not that he created us If we are our own God as the Democrats say then we need to look at something else to blame when things go wrong not us Mr Watts talked about the 2015 movie theater shooting in Lafayette La in which two people were killed Mr Watts said that Republicans knew that the gunman was a bad man doing a bad thing Democrats he added would look for other causes that the man was basically good but that it was the guns society or some other place where the blame lies and then they will want to control the guns or something else not the man Republicans he said dont need to look anywhere else for the blame Hearing Mr Watts was an epiphany for me For the first time I had a glimpse of where many of my conservative friends and neighbors were coming from I thought no wonder Republicans and Democrats cant agree on things like gun control regulations or the value of social programs We live in different philosophical worlds with different foundational principles Overlay this philosophical perspective on the American ruralurban divides of history economy and geography and the conservative individual responsibility narrative becomes even more powerful In my experience the urbanrural divide isnt really so much a red state versus blue state issue its red county versus blue county Rural Iowans have more in common with the rural residents of Washington State and New Mexico places Ive also lived than with the residents of Des Moines Seattle and Albuquerque Look at a national map of which counties went for Democrats and which for Republicans Overwhelmingly the blue counties are along waterways where early river transportation encouraged the formation of cities and surround state capitals This is also where most investment in infrastructure and services is made Rural Americans recognize that this is how it must be as the cities are where most of the people are yet its a sore spot In state capitols across America lawmakers spend billions of dollars to take a few seconds off a city dwellers commute to his office while rural counties farmtomarket roads fall into disrepair Some of the paved roads in my region are no longer maintained and are reverting to gravel For a couple of generations now services that were once scattered across rural areas have increasingly been consolidated in urban areas and rural towns die Its all done in the name of efficiency In cities firefighters and EMTs are professionals whose departments are funded by local state and federal tax dollars Rural America relies on volunteers If I have a serious heart attack at home Ill be cold to the touch by the time the volunteer ambulance crew from a town 22 miles away gets here Urban police officers have the latest in computer equipment and vehicles while smalltown cops go begging In this view blue counties are where most of our tax dollars are spent and thats where all of our laws are written and passed To rural Americans sometimes it seems our taxes mostly go to making city residents live better We recognize that the truth is more complex particularly when it comes to social programs but its the perception that matters certainly to the way most people vote To make matters worse jobs are continuing to move to metropolitan areas Smalltown chamber of commerce directors and mayors still have big dreams and use their perkiest grins and tax abatements to try to lure new businesses only to see their hopes dashed time and again Many towns with a rich history and strong community pride are already dead their citizens just dont know it yet Many moderate rural Republicans became supporters of Mr Trump when he released his list of potential Supreme Court nominees who would allow the possibility of overturning Roe v Wade They also think the liberal worldview creates unnecessary rules and regulations that cripple the economy and take away good jobs that may belong to them or their neighbor Public school systems and colleges are liberal tools of indoctrination that go after what we love and value most our children Some of what liberals worry about they see as pure nonsense When you are the son or daughter of a carpenter or mechanic and a housewife or secretary who lives paycheck to paycheck who cant afford to send kids to college as many rural residents are white privilege is meaningless and abstract Its not just older people The two young men at breakfast exemplify a younger generation with this view When Ted Cruz campaigned in a neighboring town in 2015 I watched as a couple of dozen gradeschool pupils sat at his feet as if they were at a childrens service at church His campaign speech was nearly a sermon and the children listened wideeyed when he told them the world is a scary place and its godly men like him who are going to save them from the evils of President Obama Hillary Clinton and their fellow Democrats While many blame poor decisions by Mrs Clinton for her loss in an environment like this the Democratic candidate probably didnt matter And the Democratic Party may not for generations to come The Republican brand is strong in rural America perhaps even strong enough to withstand a disastrous Trump presidency Rural conservatives feel that their world is under siege and that Democrats are an enemy to be feared and loathed Given the philosophical premises Mr Watts presented as the difference between Democrats and Republicans reconciliation seems a long way off Last edited by Dave Lesser 01052017 at 1028 AM Reply With Quote 01052017 1024 AM 2 CK 17 Senior Member Join Date Jul 2002 Location

conservatives and Republicans was not provided by Democrats themselves and is not broadly applicable to Democrats is partly a failure of Democrats and partly the ignorance of the people who dont question what they are told Also the implication that liberals do not work hard is just offensive They obviously dont know any liberals and are content to believe the trash they are told as propaganda

Posts 50557 Re Why Rural America Voted for Trump Theres a fascinating article in The Atlantic about how electoral systems in various countries not just the US give disproportionate influence to rural voters and what affects this has on government and policy You can read it here Partial quote The worry is that if globalization leads urban and rural voters to embrace starkly different political agendas around the world democracies like the United States that give rural voters extra power will face crises of legitimacy as national policy is determined by a political minority Politics is just a pitched battle between these two geographically based groups Rodden said There is already reason to worry that Donald Trump will exacerbate this divide He has emphasized social issues that strongly polarize rural and urban voters by promising to appoint judges who will modify Roe vs Wade as well as protect the second amendment His economic policies may be just as polarizing If his economic policy is primarily an effort to bring back manufacturing in the Rust Belt and bring back coal at the expense of the innovation economy and knowledge economy in the cities that would presumably have an impact on how people evaluate the fairness of the constitutional system For a successful technology reality must take precedence over public relations for nature can not be fooled Richard Feynman

again I have been hearing this all my life A scare Really Social Security has been a target of the Republican Party from the moment the legislation was introduced in 1935 It passed the House of Representatives essentially on a party line vote The telling vote was a procedural vote to kill it immediately before final passage In the 1936 presidential election the Republican standard bearer Alf Landon vowed to repeal it if elected In 1953 Republicans unsuccessfully tried to convince the newly elected Dwight Eisenhower to dismantle the program In a 1954 private letter to his brother Eisenhower wrote about those who want to abolish Social Security Their number is negligible and they are stupid The late Republican presidential nominee and Senator Barry Goldwater was antiSocial Security as was the late President Ronald Reagan at least before he became president And of course President George W Bush sought to privatize Social Security Revealingly in a memorandum marked not for attribution but nevertheless leaked President Bushs director of strategic initiatives wrote about the effort to dismantle Social Security this will be one of the most important conservative undertakings of modern times He concluded For the first time in six decades the Social Security battle is one we can win Paul Ryan and his zeal for cutting Social Security is in line with his Partys history Since he was elected to the House of Representatives in 1998 these cuts have been his top priority In 2004 Ryan pushed a plan to privatize Social Security so extreme that even George W Bush called it irresponsible In 2007 Ryan became the ranking member of the House Budget Committee and used that perch as well as his subsequent position as Chairman to draft yearly budgets that included massive cuts to Social Security Medicare and Medicaid In recent years he has become a bit more politically savvy proposing a fasttrack process to force through cuts without specifics but his intent is certainly clear to anyone who follows the issue Its more than a scare Reason and facts are sacrificed to opinion and myth Demonstrable falsehoods are circulated and recycled as fact Narrow minded

belief in God have to do with a person being peaceful and loving Some Christians are not that great of human beings TomZ didnt pull his comments out of thin air paulf he Baptist pastor quoted in the OP makes the point that the conservative rural folks who voted Trump are expressing a religious viewpoint and that they believe that the liberal urban folks who didnt are atheistic What TomZs done is simply challenge that Baptist pastors position with an alternate and also time honoured Christian perspective It is one objective of the Christianity of at least the mainline Christian denominations to help a person become a good person which includes loving and most often includes peaceful History is littered with individual failures to meet that mark splinter groups which never seemed to have those objectives at all and periods when the big institutions got it badly wrong too But still Jesus has been characterized as the Prince of Peace for a couple thousand years however ironically its seemed at times for a reason To TomZs point I also think that the view described by the Baptist pastor is badly mistaken The Liberals I know are quite willing to believe that someone should be accountable for the bad things they do They are less apt to pin all of the blame for actions on individuals though recognizing that context and culture plays a part in setting up most crimes Pedophile priests should absolutely be accountable but so should a Church which turned enough of a blind eye to such abuse that it became institutionalized White racists who lynched an unfortunate black man should be The OPs Baptist pastor is describing views held about Liberals by his parishioners and the description is of a caricature A strawman The OPs point of course is that the Liberals propagate their own caricatures too their own strawmen If I use the word God I sure dont mean an old man in the sky who just loves the occasional goat sacrifice Anne Lamott Reply With Quote 01052017 0223 PM 23

idiot and cant read Anyway below if you still cared is about gigun depression Have fun In actuality gun depression is as what angle the gun can depress or aim down Basically if you were to draw a horizontal line where the tank gun is it is how far below that line the gun can fire So a tank with 0 gun depression can not fire down at the ground on a level surface See image below Spoiler The benifits to having more gun depression is it allows you to fight well on hills If you are at the top of a hill the better your gun depression the easier it is for you to shoot down the hill without having to crest the hill If you are on the hill it allows you to shoot at people back from the edge a bit easier without having to completely drive up onto leveler ground See images below Spoiler As

size on the move and fully aimed is different for all the tanks in the game The green aiming circle and how big it gets is called reticle bloom Dispersion is how far a shell deviates from the point of aim on average They are somewhat related but they arent the same thing For example the M46 Patton has bad dispersion but good reticle bloom On the other hand the Grille 15 on PC has the best

The House of Valois controlled France in the wake of the House of Capet ; a Capetian cadet branch , the Valois claimed the throne under Salic Law . This was contested by the House of Plantagenet , the Angevin family that had ruled England since 1154 The war is commonly divided into three or four phases , separated by various unsuccessful truces : the Edwardian War ( 1337 – 1360 ) ; the Caroline War ( 1369 – 1389 ) ; the Lancastrian War ( 1415 – 1453 ) ; which saw the slow decline of Plantagenet fortunes after the appearance of Joan of Arc ( 1412 – 1431 ) . Several other contemporary European conflicts were directly related to this conflict : the Breton War of Succession , the Castilian Civil War ; the War of the Two Peters ; and the 1383 - 1385 The conflict was punctuated by several periods of peace before the French succeeded in recovering early gains made by the English , expelling them from the majority of France by the 1450s . The Plantagenets lost most of their continental territory , including Gascony , which they had held since the marriage of Eleanor of Aquitaine to Henry II in 1152 , though they retained the Pale of Calais until its capture in 1558 . However the ruling houses of England would continue to claim the French throne until 1800 . The war owes its historical significance to a number of factors . Although primarily a dynastic conflict , the war gave impetus to ideas of both French and English nationalism . Militarily , it saw the introduction of new weapons and tactics which eroded the older system of feudal armies dominated by heavy cavalry in Western Europe . The first standing armies in Western Europe since the time of the Western Roman Empire were introduced for the war , thus changing the role of the peasantry . For all this , as well as for its long duration , it Quote : The Uncertain End While we now recognise that a distinctive phase of Anglo - French conflict ended in 1453 , there was no peace settlement in the Hundred Years War , and the French remained prepared for the English to return for some time . For their part , the English crown did n ’ t stop claiming the French throne , and they did n ’ t stop invading because they had given up on recovering their lost territory , but because Henry VI had gone mad and competing noble factions fell out about both past and future policy . This contributed greatly to England ’ s own struggle for power , the Wars of the Roses , a conflict partly fought by battle hardened veterans of the Hundred Years War . However , a watershed had been reached , and the French south was now permanently out of English hands , never to return . Calais remained under English control until 1558 , and the claim on the French throne was only dropped in 1801 . Effects on England and France France had been severely damaged during the fighting . This was partly caused by official armies conducting bloody raids designed to undermine the opposition ruler by killing civilians , burning buildings and crops and stealing whatever riches they could find . It was also frequently caused by ‘ routiers ’ , brigands – frequently soldiers – serving no lord and just pillaging to survive and get richer . Areas became depleted , populations fled or were massacred , the economy was damaged and disrupted , and ever greater expenditure was sucked into the army , raising taxes . Historian Guy On the other hand , while tax in pre - war France had been occasional , in the post - war era it was regular and established . This extension of government was able to fund a standing army – which was built around the new technology of gunpowder - increasing both royal power and revenue , and the size of the armed forces they could field . France had begun the journey to absolutist monarchy which would characterise so later centuries . In addition , the damaged economy soon began to recover . England , in contrast , had begun the war with more organised tax structures than France , and much greater accountability to a parliament , but royal revenues fell greatly over war , including the substantial losses incurred by losing wealthy French regions like Normandy and Aquitaine . However , for a while some Englishmen got very rich from the plunder taken from France , building houses and churches back in England . The Sense of Identity Perhaps the most lasting impact of the war , especially in England , was the emergence of a much greater sense of patriotism and national identity . This was in part due to publicity spread to gather tax for the fighting , and partly due to generations of people , both English and French , knowing no situation other than war in France . The French crown benefited from triumphing , not just over England , but over other dissident French nobles , binding France closer together as a single body . 2012 Apr 10 20 : 06 LIKE REPLY The following 1 user Likes Albion ' s post : Germanicus ( 10 - 04 - 2012 ) | [

I ' m sure that works but then you need all your passwords to reactivate etc . Airplane mode is a far better solution . Simply slide home screen to the right and click airplane mode to on . Go to email click your address at top and select all folders . Select outbox . Click and hold frozen email message and you will be allowed to edit it . At lower right click settings or look for prompt to save as a draft .

I ' m wondering if anyone has had the repair done ( by a professional , I ' m not messing with the screen myself ) and knows the ballpark cost . I ' ve seen people who have done it themselves and also done some basic research on parts , and the new screen seems to go for at least $ 50 , plus about $ 40 for the digitizer assuming that was destroyed as well ( and with a completely shattered screen , that ' s pretty likely ) . So you ' re looking at $ 90 purely for parts . Even if HTC charged half what repairs universe gets for parts and sold you the parts for $ 45 , there ' s still a solid $ 50 in labor costs , plus shipping costs both ways , plus you ' ll be without your phone probably for a lot longer .

I tried unplugging the UPS with my newer PC ( the one with the problem from yesterday ) plugged into it and it did turn off . I then did the same thing with my old PC and it stayed on . The reason I bought this UPS a couple weeks ago was that my new PC was rebooting itself spontaneously . It was on an older APC UPS . Dell replaced the power supply and motherboard last week as a solution . There are differences between the 2 PCs . The new one runs 6 / 20 / 2011 4 : 43 PM ( in response to Roseanne ) I just did the same steps as before , unplugging both PCs from the UPS but this time I used my old UPS and both PCs stayed on .

Hope this is clear . 6 / 20 / 2011 6 : 43 PM ( in response to Roseanne ) Is it possible for you to provide the model numbers of both UPS ' s . I have a feeling that your new PC does n ' t like either the transfer time or the output wave form of the new UPS . If you are using an APC Back - UPS , below is an APC Knowledgebase that I hope could help you out : [ Equipment connected to a Back - UPS product turns off unexpectedly and / or reboots . | http : / / nam - en . apc . com / app / answers / detail / a_id / 20 / kw / reboot ] 6 / 20 / 2011 9 : 17 PM ( in response to Jonathan ) The model number of the new UPS is ES 750 . The old UPS is ES 550 . I checked the load on the battery backup and it is still quite low . The equipment on it is 1 PC , 1 printer , 1 ext . hard drive , 2 monitors and a router . 6 / 21 / 2011 4 : 39 PM ( in response to Roseanne ) Both unit belongs to the same UPS family which is Back - UPS ES . Both would almost have the same topology and design . Can you send me a PM of the model and serial number of these 2 units . This can be found on a small barcoded sticker located underneath the UPS . 6 / 21 / 2011 7 : 24 PM ( in response to Jonathan ) Here are the numbers for both units : New unit with new PC plugged in : BE750G and 5B1050T50019 Old unit with old PC plugged in : BE550G and 3B0811X60086 Hope this helps . 6 / 22 / 2011 6 : 29 PM ( in response to Roseanne ) Hi , Do you have any further insights into this problem ? For now I have the new PC plugged into the old UPS , which is already a few years old and may not last much longer . If I ca n ' t use the new UPS I ' ll need to return it . Or would it be covered by the warranty ? Thanks in advance for your help . 6 / 22 / 2011 6 : 34 PM ( in response to Roseanne ) Since you have a BE750G , I would like to check more on your end . This particular UPS has a master control feature , can you check if the master enabled LED is lit up . Can you also tell me what are those devices that are on the Master Outlet , Battery Outlets , Controlled by Master Outlets and Surge Only outlets . Keep in mind that Controlled by Master Outlets are surge outlets as well which means that if you turn off the UPS or loose power , these outlets would turn off as well . If the master enable function is enabled , once the master is off or it detected that 6 / 22 / 2011 8 : 34 PM ( in response to Jonathan ) The Master Enable light is on . I have ( had ) the PC plugged into the Master outlet . In the battery outlets are an external hard drive , two monitors and the Internet cable . The only thing plugged into the Controlled by Master outlet is a printer , which I moved to one of the Surge only outlets while the PC is plugged into the old UPS . I also have a router plugged into the Surge only outlets . This is all working fine . The printer goes off when the PC is turned off . How is this related to my problem , as described above , i.e. that the PC turns off when the UPS is unplugged from the electrical outlet ? If there ' s some incompatibility between this PC and the UPS , then the unit is not very useful to me . What are your thoughts on this issue ? 6 / 22 / 2011 10 : 25 PM ( in response to Roseanne ) I just wanted to be sure that it is not the Master Control feature that is doing this . Can you send your account details ( Full Name , Address , Contact Phone , E - mail , Company Name if this is being used in business ) thru PM ? 6 / 22 / 2011 10 : 32 PM ( in response to Jonathan ) How do I contact you privately ? 6 / 22 / 2011 10 : 48 PM ( in response to Roseanne ) On the upper right hand corner of this page , you ' ll see an envelope icon . You click on that and you ' ll be able to see the compose message interface . If not , is the e - mail listed on your Forum Account the one that you are using ? 6 / 22 / 2011 10 : 51 PM ( in response to Jonathan ) yes , I ' m getting watch updates at that address so it must be the right one 6 / 22 / 2011 10 : 54 PM ( in response to Roseanne ) Great , please check your e - mail inbox .

Discussion in ' Community Support ' started by cOlDz3rOo Feb 3 , 2015 cOlDz3rOo ASTRO Private I guys , im using the astro a40 with the mixamp pro already with the stream port and the elgato hd60 game capture but i cant figure it out how to record the game audio , my voice and the other players voices all in one . . . .can anybody help me ?

Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video . get rid of that crappy stream port , if your ' e on a windows based computer / laptop you wo n ' t need an external sound card . video covers it all for you any questions ask away Click to expand . . . That configuration will only record audio coming through the controller , not the audio on the Mixamp Pro . Which I guess is fine if you want to hear a slight echo on your headphones . . . ( game audio playing from chat adpater and Mixamp Pro at the same time ) , typically you would connect a 2.5mm Xbox chat cable from the the Controller with MS headset adapter & 3.5mm to 2.5mm cable in to the 2.5mm Controller port on the front of the Mixamp Pro . This allows you to balance the voice and game volumes on the Mixamp Pro . If you ' re using the Game Capture HD software to record you can connect the stream port on the back of the Mixamp Pro to your HD60 with a 3.5mm male / male stereo audio cable then in the configuration of the Game Capture HD software set the Input " with Analog Audio " This will set the audio source from the Mixamp Pro instead of the HDMI audio . so all audio going over the Mixamp Pro will be recorded ( including the balance between voice / game ) If you are streaming on twitch you can connect the stream port to a line - in plug ( usually colored blue on desktops ) on your computer and then select line in as your audio source on the software used and the capture the Elgato as a video device . You will likely have to tweak around with audio delays because the HD60 has a video delay on it . This is the configuration I use for twitch and I had to spend a bunch of time tweaking the delays in OBS to get audio and video synchronized , spoonhandle # 2 ASTRO Specialist Rud3Bwoy said : ↑ FALSE please do n ' t listen to this guy , ALL AUDIO I HAVE IS WORKING JUST FINE , PARTY CHAT , IN GAME AUDIO , AND MY AUDIO , PROOF BELOW , NOT TO MENTION I AM USING THE MIXAMP PRO WHERE IN THIS VIDEO DO YOU ONLY SEE THE ADAPTER BEING USED ? YOU DO N ' T both adapter and mixamp are both connected in this video lmao , i am able to adjust my mixamp during the use of my recording anytime want me record another video of my mixamp in use while doing so again , do n ' t bother with that rubbish stream port it ' s crap Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available . Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video . hmm no echo , great quality , and all audio , and mixamp in use Click to expand . . . That ' s fine and dandy , your video does n ' t disprove what I was saying . As I said your setup will only be recording the audio passing through your headset adapter ( which is game and voice ) , not the optical audio on the Mixamp Pro , so with your setup there is game audio coming from the Headset adapter AND the optical input . You ' re welcome to test it out . If you hold down the voice button on your headset adapter to 100 % voice your recording will not have any Also , the balance knob on the Mixamp will adjust the audio you are hearing in your headset , but not what is being recorded . With your configuration if you adjust the balance knob toward voice it will turn down the optical audio volume from the Xbox One but there will still be game and voice combined on the Mixamp from the headset adapter . Does your configuration work ? Obviously , and I did not claim it does n ' t . It is just not ideal . The stream port can be configured to work perfectly fine ( and is a better option than your alternative hodgepodge setup ) , especially on the Xbox One . The original poster also never mentioned anything about this being on the Xbox One , only that they were wanting to record all audio on the HD60 , so it could be for PC , Xbox One , Xbox360 , PS4 or PS3 . Feb 4 , 2015 # 3 Yes , the recording will hear all audio passing through the Mixamp Pro . You can even connect a phone or mp3 player in to the MP3 port and then have background music playing ; all of it will be combined out the stream port . I typically balance it more on the voice side so that my talking is louder than the game audio . With the setup you had with the splitter , was the 4 - pole cable from the splitter to the sound card needed ? ( I ' m just curious . . ) I would think a stereo / 3 pole 3.5mm cable would work .

It would be the same as deleting a layer that has objects on it or a dimension style that has been used to dimension a drawing . I ' d try editing the block to see what it looks like . Maybe you might reconize it and know what block it ' s in . Otherwize I ' d add a giant red X on layer 0 to the block and save . Back in your drawing it should be easy to find if the block it ' s used in is in the drawing . Have you purged all blocks not in use already ? Another way is to Save As DXF , open with a text editor and search for the reference in another block , but you need to be familier with DXF codes to know what you ' re looking at .

It might also include it being used as an arrowhead in a dimension style . You might need to insert the other blocks and individually REFEDIT them to check for nested structures in order to find where it is . You can do the same thing with the VLISP editor to inspect the block definitions table , but blocks with lots of individual entities can take a while to step through . There may also be some LISP code out there to report on nested blocks in a drawing , which can accomplish the same thing . If you are going to fly by the seat of your pants , expect friction burns .

When I switch to the new construction phase they all turn to a solid black hatch . I ' d like them to show the materials but all fade to a gray color in the new construction phase - or at least change to a solid gray color . I know that this is done in a visibility / graphics override Also , I learned yesterday that where new walls are intersecting the existing walls ( new construction phase ) , they are n ' t really cleaning up the way I ' d like . I end up with a white break within the existing black wall where the new wall intersects the existing perpendicularly ( which again , I ' d like to change to a version of gray ) . For some reason , this forum is n ' t letting me upload a picture of this so hopefully the description helps . If anyone can point me in the right direction , I ' d appreicate the help ! Thank you .

Therefore , you go to the Phases dialog box , Phase Filter tab , and set " Overridden " for the Existing and New columns . Then , go to the Graphics Overrides tab , and set your choice for the Cut Pattern column on the Existing and New rows . About the intersection of two walls , one existing and one new , the display should show the new wall in two segments , and the existing wall passing through . They do n ' t really clean up .

With the new Wall still selected , right click on the end grip and choose Disallow Join from the context menu . This will keep that end of the Wall from joining to other Walls . You should now be able to put the end of the new Wall at the face of the existing Wall and not have them One word of caution - if you use grip editing to get the new Wall end to the face of the existing Wall after you disallow join , and your wall is drawn with the Location Line at Finish Face : Exterior , be aware that you get an extra grip ( Allow Join ) after you disallow join , and that grip will be all but on top of the Drag Wall End grip when the Location Line is at Finish Face : Exterior .

Anyways we stopped at a pet store and all of the birds were outside and the temperature was 44 out . There was a pair of Eclectus , a conure , some canaries , finches and a couple cockatoos one of which was shivering and sickly looking . I am wondering what temperature is too cold for the birds ? I think 44 is really cold and I am wondering if I could call the Humane Society on these guys ? It really • • • • ed me off when I said I thought it was too cold for the birds because they were shivering and the owner said they are fine because they have lots of feathers . It has ruined my entire day because I feel so sad for those poor birds who have no choice , but to be stuck outside in the cold on the side of a busy road . 1 / 2 / 11 # 1 lotus15 Cruising the avenue Celebirdy of the Month Mayor of the Avenue Avenue Spotlight Award Avenue Veteran Joined : 3 / 23 / 10 Messages : 11,497 Location : Bay Area Real Name : Coco Actually , I was surprised to learn that there are tons and tons of hobby and show breeders in the UK who have outdoor ( unheated ) aviaries for their budgies through the winter - - and it gets COLD there , below freezing and such .

That is quite chilly ! The thing is with parrots , they do tolerate cold better than they do heat . However , unless the birds you saw have been acclimated over time to lower temps , then it is wrong to have them outside when it ' s that cold . It does n ' t take long for a parrot to become dehydrated in cold temperatures , just as people can . . . .especially going from a warm ( store ) or house , out into the cold .

I think 65 is cold for my guys here but , there are tons of people all over the world who keep their birds outdoors through the winter , so who knows ? ? Very true ! here in western Canada , the weather here on the Island is mild enough that I know several breeder that maintain outdoor aviaries . One breeder has told me about his macaws that leave the attached enclosed area , and sit out in the aviary with wings open , catching snow flakes ! This is the breeder where our YNA came from 14 years ago . . .gorgeous facility !

I think being out in the sun over the summer with no shade is a much bigger problem - - that I would definitely call the Humane Society about , but if they are acclimated to cold weather , the parrots should actually be okay in 44 degrees .

Jan Depends , are they protected from the elements such as can they get under cover and out of the wetness ? My Birds in my Aviaries which consist of Pionus and Amazon and 1 Green Wing , they are inside an aviary but it is not heat and the ycan not get wet from the weather but our temps here get sometimes into the mid teens . . . in the last week it has been getting like 20 degrees outside . I run no heat , the birds do fine . They always seem happy and all . To me 44 is not that cold for them as long as they can get out of wind , wetness and / Some birds can not take the cold as well as other birds , African Greys do not do so well in cold weather - their toes are more easily frost biten . # 10 gritsinct Sprinting down the street 9 / 9 / 10 448 CT Cathy It is my understanding that birds would do fine with that temperature as long as they are acclimated to it slowly ? If he is keeping them indoors sometimes where it is much warmer and then taking them outdoors to a drastically different temperature , then that is very bad ( based on what my vet said ) . If they are outside all of the time and therefore had time to adjust to a lowering temperature , then they should be OK . I asked my vet a lot of questions about this - being a southern girl living in CT - it feels very cold to me and I was worried about what happens when my power fails ( as it ' s done twice this year already ) and he said the above - that basically extreme , rapid temperature changes are very bad .

Oh boy , I have to wonder about weather and such . . . my outside birds take a huge beating on weather changes being that one day it can be hot out and the next day have snow . Our temps here are very drastic all the time but maybe the birds are use to that . . . they never get ill from temp changes . During the winter we can have a few days where the days are nice like up to 70 degrees and the night drop to 30ish . Makes ya wonder on how mine # 12 srtiels 11 / 23 / 09 2,533 Ft . Lauderdale , FL Susanne I am in S . FL and so far this year we have had the temps . go down in the low 30 ' s for a couple days . I have mousebirds and cockatiels , and they are all outside , and during this time they also has new babies in the nest . Since they are aclimated to the outside they have all done well . The shop owner knows his birds , and their tolerances , and just because we see something we dislike , or personally would not do does not mean that they are being wrong or cruel to their birds . Last edited : srtiels # 13 clawnz 11 / 19 / 09 1,119 Auckland NZ Clive As far as I am told . And I would not apply this to all birds . Lyn will not let any indoor bird be rehomed to an outside aviary in winter , as she says they will not have developed the under down to protect them from the cold . But if they are from outside aviarys then they should do OK down to 10c . As they will of grown the feathers to protect them . I feel this will vary depending on the type of bird though . R.I.P.

Currently our electrician installed a 4 " emt the has ( 4 ) 90 bends within about 50 ' run . In the 2008 NEC , 358.26 " There shall not be more than the equivalent of four quarter bends ( 360 degrees total ) between pull points , for example , conduit bodies and boxes . " So , based solely on the the number of bends , and the fact that it is EMT , it does meet code requirements ( at least for the 2008 NEC , but I think earlier versions are similar ) . But , if the emt is to be used for telecom cabling , this number of bends is outside of what is accepted by standard and guidelines .

In some cases you can get away with three bends but not four . A third bend may be acceptable if the total run is less than 33 ft , the conduit size is increased , or one of the bends is located within 12 inches of the cable feed end .

The installation you describe might be fine with the NEC , but not to TIA Standards . You may also want to note to them about not using pull points ( j - boxes to in electrician - speak ) as turns .

How many cables are going in this 4 " conduit ? That is what is going to dictate the pulling tension of the installed cable . If the cable can be pulled with less than 25lbs of pulling force ( taking future installations into account ) then you have satisfied the intent of that standard . I am not offering this as a means to continually circumvent the standards . I just see people throw their hands up and call an installation shoddy because real world conditions do n ' t allow for strict adherance to the letter of the standards .

One potential problem with your statement is that it appears to assume that the same contractor will be performing both the conduit / raceway installation and the cable installation . One reason for standards is the eliminate finger pointing . If Contractor " A " provides 4 " emt with four 90 degree bends in 50 feet , and Contractor " B " pulls the cable , who is at fault if the cables do n ' t pass the test , or they become abraided and are ruined during pulling ? Is it the contractor " A " because I ' d hate to try to sort out that situation .

Traditional Catholicism dizzy_dave 2007 - 12 - 23 02 : 23 : 32 UTC # 1 I love the old style Catholic Churches . I ’ d like to learn more about why they were built in the way they were . Are there any books that explain these things ? : Why a bell Tower ? Why was the sanctuary set up as it was ? The floor plans were all very similar , why ? Why stained glass windows ? We have seen a big change in how churches are built today . I ’ d just like to know more on the why ’ s of why . I think this could be an interesting topic . Ridgerunner 2007 - 12 - 23 02 : 49 : 07 UTC # 2 I probably should n ’ t be allowed to post on this one , because I hate “ Modern Church Architecture ” with everything that ’ s in me . Returning to topic , though , my impression is that the early churches in the U.S. were built by immigrants , who brought their heritage with them . Thus , churches built largely by ethnic Germans tend to be Gothic , with a lot of carved wood inside . Early Germans in the U.S. seem to have been excellent carvers and joiners . Irish churchest tended to be sort of “ English Gothic ” ( apologies to the Irish ) or a Gothic / Romanesque mix ; certainly not as Gothic as the German - built churches , and with I have not seen a lot of Polish churches , but in my limited experience , they are surprisingly bright inside . Lots of color . If you look at Polish ethnic outfits , they are as well . Perhaps the brightness of the Polish fields . “ Polonie ” = “ People of the fields ” . Italian - built churches tend to be Italianate , which is no great surprise . Bright . Lots of stone , plaster and art . About what one would expect . There are surprises . St . Louis Catholics are pretty German , though there are a fair number of Irish and Italians . But the Cathedral is Byzantine , both inside and out , with gorgeous acres of mosaics inside . Go figure . Now , this is n ’ t really a Catholic thing . But ever notice how all Episcopal or Anglican churches in the U.S. either look like an English cathedral or something that looks like it was built by hobbits ? There might be Catholic “ hobbit churches ” , but I have never seen one . So , now , what should new Catholic churches look like ? Well , I ’ m not sure mere reproduction of the old European models would quite be it . However , I think modern architecture is an excrescence inspired by Bauhaus as an expression of socialist materialism . ( Read Tom Wolfe ’ s “ From Bauhaus to Our House ” a hilarous irreverent pillorying of modern architecture ) I personally admire the work of Adam Stroik and Henry Menzies . Both have websites and if you google the names , you will find them . They seem to me a blending of modern materials and classic themes ; though not quite a repetition of those themes . I like them very much . One of these days , there is going to be a lot of retrofitting of “ modernistic ” Catholic churches when parishioners and new bishops have finally taken the ugliness all they can stand . It ’ s already going on in some places . Both Stroik and Menzies have done a fair amount of it and the last I looked , they had examples on their websites . There have always been purposes in the way churches were built . Gothic , for example , had a way of drawing the eye upward to enormous heights . Romanesque had an ageless solidity to it . Italianate architecture seems to me an expression of pure joy . People like Stroik and Menzies also have “ themes ” and “ Purposes ” ; some of which they explain . Ridgerunner 2007 - 12 - 23 02 : 57 : 16 UTC # 3 Oh yes , bell towers . They were very functional . Long ago , when people did not have clocks commonly , the church bells would be rung to tell people it was time to go to Mass . When I was a kid , they served much the same purpose even though we had clocks . It was more or less “ the last call ” . Those bells were big and the sound carried a long , long way . Also , they were rung at noon , which reminded people to say the prayer called “ The Angelus ” . A beautiful custom in my mind . The towers were high so the sound would carry farther . 2007 - 12 - 23 03 : 02 : 51 UTC # 4 Stained glass windows were for beauty and inspiration . But they also served as “ lessons ” to people who , long ago , were largely illiterate . They were very carefully depicting biblical events , so people could “ read ” and remember them and think about them . In the Gothic period , they were huge , and let in a lot of light . Part of the Gothic design was to do that ; to bring in light that had a sort of heavenly beauty . Some had a special window through which sunlight would beam during Most churches ’ altars faced west . So , before V II , the priest faced east , toward Jerusalem , while saying Mass . Most church designs were in the form of a cross inside , and you can see that pattern again and again in older churches . dizzy_dave 2007 - 12 - 23 04 : 12 : 41 UTC # 5 Very informative , thank you . jkarp 2007 - 12 - 23 04 : 14 : 39 UTC # 6 dizzy_dave : I love the old style Catholic Churches . I ’ d like to learn more about why they were built in the way they were . Are there any books that explain these things ? : Why a bell Tower ? Why was the sanctuary set up as it was ? The floor plans were all very similar , why ? Why stained glass windows ? We have seen a big change in how churches are built today . I ’ d just like to know more on the why ’ s of why . I think this could be an interesting topic . Here ’ s what I know about church architecture ( any and all corrections are welcomed ) : Almost every aspect of “ traditional ” church architecture is designed to point to the greater meaning : Christ ’ s ultimate sacrifice for mankind . Traditional churches are most commonly designed in cruciform meaning literally , the shape ( form ) of a cross . Cruciform churches have several main elements : [ LIST ] * ] The Sanctuary * ] The Transept * ] The Nave * ] The Apse [ / LIST ] When viewed from above , a cruciform church will appear in the shape of a cross . The sanctuary is located at the heart of the church . This is where the high altar is / was located . The high altar is the main altar used for public Mass . Also located in the sanctuary is / was the tabernacle . The word tabernacle means “ tent ” and our usage derives from the meeting tent used in Exodus where the Lord made his dwelling among the people . The Transept is formed by the arms of the cross . The transept in some cruciform churches do not stick out past the walls of the building . The symbolism surrounding the Nave is particularly interesting . The nave is where the congregation sits ; the word “ nave ” comes from the Latin word for ship , “ navis . ” The church is sometimes referred to as the “ Barque of Peter . ” Christ told his disciples , “ Come , follow me , and I will make you fishers of men ” ( Matthew 4 : 19 ) . Thus , the congregation actually sits in Peter ’ s fishing vessel . The location symbolizes the congregation forming the Body of Christ . The Apse , which means “ arch ” is located opposite the nave , on the other side of the sanctuary . The choir and the presbytery ( where clergy would sit ) is located in the apse . This location symbolizes the choirs of angels surrounding Christ in heaven . Some churches will have a side altar to the side of the sanctuary near where Christ ’ s head would be located on the cross . This chapel is usually dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary . It ’ s location is symbolic of the Blessed Virgin cradling or supporting Christ ’ s head when he was removed from the cross . AlexB 2007 - 12 - 23 12 : 17 : 28 UTC # 7 Traditional church layout follows the design standards set by St . Charles Borromeo around the time of the Council of Trent . A little history may be found here stmaria 2007 - 12 - 23 14 : 03 : 40 UTC # 8 dizzy_dave : We have seen a big change in how churches are built today I have to believe that the design of Churches today is intentional . They are stripped of the Sacred character for the reason of so - called " unity ’ with non - Cathlic faiths . If it were just becaused that is the way architecture is designed today then why are n ’ t SSPX Chapels also designed to look stale and banal ? And the SSPX does n ’ t have the money yet they manage to have beautiful sanctuaries . Look at the Church shown on EWTN where the two Traditional Masses have been televised . Why is n ’ t this Church and sanctuary plain and simple ? Instead it is beautifullly adorned . Someone has decided to make the new Churches and sancturaies have a simple altar table , few statues , no tabernacle , crucifix without the body of Christ etc . It is no accident . Look at how ugly the Church at Fatima is . I know people who have seen it in person and they say it is truly hideous .

When you go to a modern Catholic Church , and look at the twisted hunk of metal above the altar , that ' s supposed to be Our Saviour , and the plain unadorned walls and ceiling and the silouette stations of the cross , it ' s so very easy to begin wondering how the Bears backup QB will handle the pressure of starting today , right in the middle of the homily . However when you ' re inside one of God ' s masterpieces of sacred architecture , you see the Son of Man hanging on the Caesar 2007 - 12 - 23 16 : 34 : 49 UTC # 10 You ask some very good questions . On the sanctuary - the form and layout of the sanctuary has actually changed over time . The position of the Altar , the bishop ’ s throne , the choir , and the rest has changed . I wrote a thread on the development of the Catholic sanctuary a few months back : The Catholic Sanctuary . One thing that has always remained constant from ancient times ( until the 1960s ) has been the celebration of Mass ad orientem , towards the East , and the clear separation of the sanctuary , the place of the clergy , from the nave , the place of the laity . On the floorplans - it has become common in the Latin Church for churches to take the form of a cross . But this has not always been so . The first permament churches , built after the legalization of Christianity in the Roman Empire , used the design of Roman basilicas ( public halls built for business and legal purposes ) . Over time this design changed into the cross form we know today . In the east it is common for a church to take on the form of an equal - armed Greek cross , and there system closed 2017 - 09 - 20 22 : 40 : 19 UTC # 11 | [

I see there ' s not a whole lot here on Sigmas short of the occasional mention , but I thought I ' d ask here first to see if anyone has info on this model , since I ' m already registered here . This particular model seems to be difficult to find information on . It ' s a GCS - 4 ( or as the stamp inside says , " GC - S4 " ) . I ' ve been having a hard time dating it . The head has the " Sigma Guitars est . 1970 " which suggests it was made after 1979 . There is no paper label on the inside , which also suggests 1980 - 1984 ( it seems the labels reappeared in ' 84 ) . I also do n ' t see a visible way Everything suggests the instrument was made between 1980 and 1984 . Except this little bit on Wikipedia ( I know , not the greatest source , but beggars ca n ' t be choosers when there is n ' t much out there ; it seems like most people have the DR or DM line , or the GCS - 6 or GCS - 7 ) , listed under " Additional Models Approximately 1975 to 1978 " which also states that " These guitars still had the early peghead logo , instead of the " Second Generation Sigma " Martin GCS - 4 Grand Concert . Martin style peghead bound in white . Spruce top . Mahogany back and sides . Rosewood fixed bridge . Adjustable truss rod . However , the logo is definitely the 2nd - gen logo ( there is no Greek sigma letter on it ) . And if the GCS - 4 was made 1975 - 1978 , then why does everything else suggest 1980 - 1984 ? ( Then again , I found something else online that stated the GCS - 4 was produced starting in 1996 . . . ) So which is it ? ( I know the age on these are impossible to pinpoint , but I expected to at least get close without finding conflicting info . . . ) Is the second a completely different model ? This one does n ' t have the white - bound head , the adjustable truss rod , or the rosewood bridge , so I ' m wondering if that ' s the case . The only stamps inside are the Martin logo and the " GC - S4 . " There is nothing resembling a serial number , though I see other people referring to serial numbers on their instruments but I have n ' t a clue where they find them if there is no label . I believe the bridge assembly has been replaced at some point as there are no screws as I see described as being common for these instruments . The top is laminate , as far as I can tell from looking at the edge of the soundhole . I have n ' t a clue if this is a " good " Sigma as I ' m just a beginner and it ' s not like I need something great anyway . I like it , anyway , so , yeah . Just would like to know more about it .

I used to call the legendary Mike Longworth on occasion when he was still there , and he was always very helpful . I ' d guess there ' s someone now with more or less the same role . Katharine wrote : The only stamps inside are the Martin logo and the " GC - S4 .

Have you looked on the neck block ? That is where Martin serial numbers are located . Loosen the strings and pull them aside . Then look inside the sound hole up toward the neck .

Mierzwiak : Well , technically speaking , the procedure is brain damage . Thu Dec 13 , 2012 4 : 03 am Thanks , MT . I ' ve thought of contacting Martin , yeah . It seems like for a while they considered Sigma sort of the basmati stepchild , though . . . at least everything I ' ve read suggests they did n ' t keep a whole lot of documentation and I ' ve read of some people who did n ' t find a whole lot of help ' cause the info simply did n ' t exist . It might be worth a shot , though . I ' m pretty sure I ' m safe to assume it ' I ' ll have a look further up for the serial number , but all of the others I ' ve seen that are stamped on that back brace are right on there and easy to see , near the Martin logo and the model stamp ( inc . the DR - 28H that I played around with at a store the other day .

It ' s important to remember that these are not Martin ' s high - end instruments with their attendant price tags . They ' re a very good student grade , better - than - entry - level guitar made by a highly reputable builder . In order to keep the price in the target range , builders have to cut certain corners . In the case of Martin Sigma they decided to do away with bookkeeping expenses instead of reducing the quality they had planned for the line .

Thread Tools Display February 21st , 2011 , 11 : 54 PM # 1 dmitriylm Member Join Date Apr 2009 Posts 32 How to multiply two integer arrays in C++ ? I ' m writing a C++ program where I have two arrays ( firstNum and secondNum ) which store two separate large numbers with each array space storing one digit . The numbers can be up to 72 digits in length and so each array is of length 72 with the numbers stored from right to left ( meaning firstNum [ 71 ] would store a 3 if the number was 4543 and every other space would to the left of the first digit would be a zero ) . 976854 = firstNum = { . . . . .0 , 0 , 0 , 0 , 0 , 9 , 7 , 6 , 8 , 5 , 4 } / / with firstNum [ 71 ] = 4 89968 = secondNum = { . . . .0 , 0 , 0 , 0 , 0 , 8 , 9 , 9 , 6 , 8 } and the answer would be stored in a final array as such : 967854 * 89968 = 87075888672 finalNum = { . . . .0 , 0 , 0 , 0 , 0 , 0 , 0 , 8 , 7 , 0 , 7 , 5 , 8 , 8 , 8 , 6 , 7 , 2 } My program already asks the user to enter both numbers and stores them in two separate arrays in the right to left format with every empty space being 0 . Now I need to actually multiply them and store the results in the finalNum array . I believe this can be done with a nested loop but I have n ' t been able to figure out how . ( I ' ve got the addition function working without issue using the same arrays ) . I ' ll post my current source below , it compiles but does not provide the correct result . Please look over .

Hey I didnt see in you program the matrix that holds the temporary result . for example if you want to calc : 23 * 45 23 45 - - - - - - - - - - - 115 - 92 - - - - - - - - - - - - + 1035 You have to generate the matrix : int matTemp [ SIZE ] [ SIZE * 2 ] . In this example the matrix should holds after the calculation : matTemp = { 0 , 1 , 1 , 5 } , { 0 , 9 , 2 , 0 } And at the end you just adding by column in a different loops .

Could you show me how I can implement this ? 03 : 48 PM # 5 Lindley Elite Member Power Poster Oct 2007 Location Seattle , WA 10,895 Code : else if ( op = = ' * ' ) / / checks for operator , performs array multiplication This is an awfully complex algorithm to do entirely inside an else if condition . Consider writing a separate function to handle the multiply , and just call it in the else if . if ( prod > = base ) { carry = ( prod / base ) ; prod - = ( carry * base ) ; } While this is fine , it might be more clear what ' s going on ( and potentially more efficient ) to write it this way : if ( prod > = base ) { carry = prod / base ; prod = prod& # 37 ; base ; } where % is the modulus operator . Your indenting is a bit strange , it would be a lot easier to verify correctness with consistent indenting . Right now it looks like your else condition may be larger than it should be .

Introduction 2 . What is ARAM ? 3 . General Strategy 4 . Champion Tier List 5 . Tips & Tricks 6 . Conclusion 1 . Introduction Hello everyone and welcome to my Guide on ARAM . I , PureImbalance , am a 19 - year - old player hailing from Germany ( thus please forgive my mistakes , my English is fluent but not perfect = . I started playing LoL around June 2013 , and from levels 10 to 30 , I almost exclusively played ARAM . To me , it was a fun way to try out new champions , being forced to play a variety of champs . Also , it allowed me to get to know most of the champions of the About my ranking : I never really played much ranked , I did my placements this season and got to Gold V , and now I play a ranked every 4 weeks to not have my LP decay . Yesterday , I reached 500 ARAM wins . In these almost 1000 ARAMS played , I learned a lot about the mode , and I want to share this with you . This Guide assumes that you already have a basic understanding of how to play LoL as in you know the most basic game mechanics ( casting , walking , . . . ) . 2 . What is ARAM ? ARAM , acronym for A ll R andom A ll M id , is a game mode in LoL . I wo n ' t bore you with its history , all you have to know the idea was to have a more fun - related game mode . The Teams are 5v5 . In Championselect , every Summoner is assigned a random Champion from his champion pool ( including the free weekly champions ) . Rerolls can be used to reroll the champion , aka get a new one . Rerolls can be earned by simply playing ARAM matches . A maximum of 2 rerolls can be saved up . Summonerse may also try to trade Champions with teammates if both players have both champions available to them , whether through purchase or the current weekly champion rotation The winning conditions are still to a ) destroy the enemy nexus or b ) have the enemy team surrender . The map is one single lane with 2 lane turrets per team , an inhibitor , the 2 nexus towers and the nexus : http : / / oceanicgaming . net / wp - content / uploads / 2013 / 06 / LOL_com_HowlingAbyss_FooterSS . jpg ( http : / / euw . leagueoflegends . com / board / redirect . php ? do = verify&redirect_url = http % 3A % 2F % 2Foceanicgaming . net % 2Fwp - content % 2Fuploads % 2F2013 % 2F06 % 2FLOL_com_HowlingAbyss_FooterSS . jpg The shop is located at the fountain ( the place where you spawn ) , but you can only buy when you ( re ) spawn . Leaving the fountain denies you access to the store when walking back to it until you die . Therefore , I like to say " What kills me makes me stronger " . Another important thing to notice is that the Fountain , as opposed to the one in the Summoners Rift , will not heal you . Also , there is a global aura that reduces healing effects . To compensate for this , starting at 3 : 15 and respawning 30 seconds after use , 4 healing relics spawn along the Lane ( green levitating plus symbols ) . Walking over them will heal you for a small amount and grant you mana . 3 . General Strategy Oh boy , where do I start . 3.1 Sustain Because you can not simply recall to heal back up , and there are not enough heal relics to heal everybody , you need a different form of sustain . Therefore , pick up heal potions ! I can not stress this enough . Even if your team has a champion with healing abilities ( Sona , Soraka , . . . ) , their Mana is limited and they have to keep 4 champions healthy . There are very little exceptions to this , and the amount of health pots you might need depends on your champion ' s built - in sustain , but as a general rule of thumb : Always pick up some Health pots . 3.2 Objectives How do you win 97 % of your games ? By taking down the towers , and finally the inhibitor , Nexus towers and the nexus . As opposed to the Summoner ' s Rift , the Inhibitor and the Nexus turrets DO NOT REGAIN HEALTH ! This is crucial : Whenever you get the chance to autoattack the enemy turret WITHOUT being caught by their Skills and the lane is pushed and minions are tanking the tower , attack the tower . One Autoattack , walk back a bit , get one more in , then clear the next wave . I have seen diamond players miss these opportunities , and I have lost games because the game was dragged too long and their Tank composition started to outscale our squishy caster comp , simply because people did not attack the tower . Every Autoattack counts - This is important especially for ranged characters . Another thing why the turrets not regenerating Health is so important is that dieing for getting the tower down CAN be worth , when it allows your Team to push further . It is not worth if you get 5 man aced and they take your 2 towers and your Inhibitor . Destroying the first tower means you can push further , and control one more Health relics . More sustain for your team means a better shot at winning . 3.3 Teamfights In ARAM , you learn a lot about teamfights and Focus . All flanking / pincering moves that are good on the Summoner ' s Rift are forgotten , the only thing that counts here is how well you combo your ultimates , who gets the strongest engage , and who manages to focus the fed person on the enemy team better . Therefore : - Communicate with your team . If you are Malphite and they have a fed Draven , tell your team that when the situation is right , you will Ulti on top of him , and that they should please follow you . - Focus the person that deals the most damage if you can do so effectively . Nobody wants a Caitlyn running through their team just to reach the enemy Ezreal . Thus : - USE YOUR BRAIN ! If your Champions kit allows you to counter an enemy champion , use it to your advantage ! Example : You play Talon ( Anti - caster Assassin ) , their Annie is fed and gives you headaches because every teamfight she lands a multi - target Tibbers stun . Tell your team you will engage onto Annie with your silence , so they are aware and can follow . When a teamfight is won , try to capitalize on this by pushing the tower ( s ) . Be careful though : The enemy team will come back healed , with new items and a lust for revenge . Do n ' t get aced back ! If you are a champion with strong waveclear ( e.g. Ziggs ) and your team overstayed and the fight is losing , instead of getting a doublekill and dieing last , allowing them to push your tower , run away and defend the tower . Kills are FAR less important than towers - DO N ' T GET GREEDY ! Games have been lost because as the lane was pushed and your team was just pushing down the turret , the friendly Jarvan IV decided to dive , your team follows , you win the fight 5 to 4 , but the remaining member of your team can not push the tower as fast as your team could before , therefore dragging the game sometimes resulting in a loss . Again , Kills do n ' t matter , especially when you have to die first before you can cash in the 3.4 The Execute Since you can not buy unless you die , sometimes you find yourself in the position that you have 6 - 7k gold burning in your pockets , but you do not want to give the enemy the 750 gold shutdown onto you ( 500 + assist gold ) . Therefore , it can be a good idea to suicide at a turret without being damaged by enemies , therefore not granting them the kill . When attempting to suicide , you must be sure that you have not taken any damage or non - damage spells from enemy champions in the last 13 seconds . When I prepare to suicide , I usually start counting a bit , so that I have an estimate idea when to suicide . This is best done after a teamfight , when you are left with a sliver of health , making 1 - 2 turret shots fatal for you . When no enemy champions that could reach you are around ( because most are at base since a teamfight just passed ) , walk just slightly into the range of the turret and catch 2 shots , and die . This is often extremely risky and hard These are the basics to ARAM strategy that lead you to victory . Too many do not understand these principles , costing you sweet victories . 4 . Champion Tier List Champions with the following attributes are very strong in the ARAM Mode : - Healing Abilities - Strong Teamfighter / Resets - Poke - Strong All - ins / Strong Focus - Waveclear Without further ado , here are the tiers : GOD - Tier Sona - Has heal , poke and an AoE - Stun which is great in Teamfights . Build : AP , Lichbane ! Ziggs - AoE poke that HURTS ! Build : Athenes , then standard AP build Heimerdinger - Good poke , good waveclear , passively heals turrets Lux - Poke , Shield ( thus semi - reliable sustain ) , Ulti good for snipes . Build : Athenes , then AP Kog ' Maw - Ridiculous poke after lv . 6 . Build : if AP : Tear , if AD : Standart ADC build . AP recommended , but depends on Teamcomp . Nidalee - Everybody hates Nidalee on an enemy team , but even more on ARAM . Strong poke , strong sustain . Fiddlesticks - Good Self - sustain , Annoying Poke , Ult allows for great teamfights when used correctly . Build : AP Soraka - Such sustain . . . wow . Build AP , CDR Master Yi - Get fed , Game over . Easiest Penta of my life . Build : AD Katarina - Wait for somebody to be low in teamfight , jump in , get reset , kill everybody . 2nd easiest Penta of my life . Build : AP Strong Kayle - Almost God tier . Has a heal , Ultimate is strong in teamfights , great damage . Build : AP , Nashors ! Janna - Can shield turrets , AoE heal ulti , CC . Build : AP Galio - Strong Teamfights due to ult , Good Poke . Build : AP / MR Ashe - Good Poke , strong CC for teamfights . Build : AD Carry Nami - Heal , buff , good in teamfights . Build : Mana regen , AP Malzahar - No skill required , OP dmg . Has poke , semi - good waveclear , is strong in general . Ult allows great focus . Build : AP Amumu - Great focus , great initiation , AoE Root Ulti is really strong in fights . Build : Tanky , AP Karma - Poke , utility in form of a shield . Build : AP , CDR Maokai - Lots of poke , strong focus with his root , Ult is great in Teamfights . Build : AP or Tanky , is team dependant . Xerath - Poke . Build : AP Varus - Poke , good tower push . Build : AD Carry Zyra - Long range poke , good zone , Strong teamfight potential . Build : AP Brand - Long range , strong damage . His bad mobility is not so much a problem as in Summoner ' s Rift . Build : AP Leona - Strong focus , strong cc for teamfights . Build : Tanky Morgana - Good Sustain , strong focus / initiation . Build : AP Ezreal - Strong Poke , Tower push . Build : AD or AP , team dependant . Sivir - Poke , Tower push , Waveclear . Build : AD Carry Cassiopeia - Long ranged poke , AoE Stun for teamfight . Build : AP , Tear , Liandrys Orianna - Waveclear , good poke , lots of utility . Build : AP Dr . Mundo - Tanky , Stustain . Sticky as f * * k . Build : Tanky Malphite - Great Ult for teamfights . SMAAASH ! - ROK SES UR DED . Build : Tanky Caitlyn - Poke , great range for tower push . Build : AD Carry Average Everything not named yet , and everything that will not be named in the " garbage " Tier . The Average champions greatly depend on your team composition and the enemies team composition as well as your individual skill with the champion . Garbage a.k.a. hope you have a reroll or somebody dodges Tryndamere - Really hard to pull off a good tryndamere in this mode . He needs his farm , but he is usually zoned too hard to get enough gold to get going Evelynn - Her stealth does not make her as strong as in Summoner ' s Rift , therefore limiting her effectiveness . Too squishy early , usually feeds . 5 . Tips&Tricks These Tips are situational and are what i deduced from my 977 ARAM Matches . You may skip this if you are really new to the game or simply do n ' t care . - When playing against a poke comp as a bruiser / all - in comp , try to keep the lane pushed . This means they will have to divide their attention between clearing / defending and poking you . When the lane is pushed in their favor , it is really easy for a poke comp to just poke you down . If you can not do so , it may be worth to just give up a tower instead of getting poked down , because when poked down , you can not win a teamfight , allowing them to just push down tower after tower . Try to get a good all - in fight , which may result in a bad trade , but push the lane away from your tower . - Try to figure out which team will eventually outscale the other , and play accordingly . Example : When you play a 3 tank composition vs a squishy poke composition , you will outscale lategame , but lose early . This means you need to drag the game to have a chance to win . - When you have pushed to the Nexus turrets , but are stuck due to their high damage , try to force out 1 for 1 or 2 for 2 trades , then get your tank to tank the tower a bit . Every damage counts because the towers do not regenerate health , and this is how you can slowly whittle down towers . Sometimes it may be even worth to have your tank completely die while you damage the towers , then retreat and defend your towers 4v5 , then attack again . I have lost arams because Never underestimate the value of towers . PRO TOWER TANKING TIP : when tanking , stand in the line of the two towers : T = tower , C = Champion , N = Nexus N T - - - T - C This makes only one tower attack you . 6 . Conclusion This is my first guide ever and I hope this helps somebody . I put a lot of efford into this , and therefore every feedback , good or bad ( e.g. what i forgot ) is appreciated .

Though it ' s frowned upon it ' s a legit strategy . Better to suicide than to just instantly die in the next teamfight and lose 2 turrets . I would personally remove Master Yi , Katarina , Fiddle ( Good sight and saving CC counter these people like mad ) and shift Xerath up ( His poke is god - like especially due to his infinite mana and all his skills are basically poke now ) and Lissandra ( That ult is amazing plus due to the closed map her E makes it so much more easier to initiate and go into place . ) I ' d shift Mundo to average too considering that the healing debuff makes him heal way less . And would suggest saying that Aegis of the Legion is godlike in this gamemode . It ' s so amazing against poke . Other than that it ' s a great guide ! Thanks for the tips ! + 0 PureImbalance Recruiter 04 - 14 - 2014 Hey , Thanks for your reply ! you are absolutely correct , I forgot about the suicide . How could I ! About Lissandra I have to say she has her perks , but she also lacks in certain points . Her Poke is not the strongest for one . A good yi , kata , fiddle will wait in the wings until most of the enemies cc is blown until engaging , but then they can easily win a teamfight by themselves , thus making them God tier in this mode in my eyes . Itemization heavily depends on the situation , also keep the healing debuff in mind . Mundos Ult is still strong , and on close grounds his aoe dmg is crazy when you look at how tanky he grows . Still , thank you for your time and comment ! + 0 LadisWash3rum Junior Member 05 - 15 - 2014 bump People should see this really good guide ! Ephemerion 07 - 29 - 2014 Hi , I want to say a few things about this . First i ' d put Nunu in the garbage because i never saw a Nunu doing well in this mode ( in about 1k5 games ) . Then i ' d like to highlight the importance of summoners : a good ignite can ruin a mundo / swain / vladimir that would be otherwise insane if played correctly ; i personally run exhaust on most of my squishy champions , as it will ruin the damlages of any assassins ( ex : Katarina goes tower dive ulti on your 4 low life team and she got exhaust , easy kill ) . That ' s also why i would remove Katarina and Fiddle from god tier . Yi is insane anyway , if he get 3 - 4 items he just comes in late in a fight and easy penta ( late in fight = less cc , more resets ) . Liandry ' s + Rylai ' s does insane damage on Zyra . I could say more but well , it would take all day so . . . oh , and one more thing = > focus Teemo Nivlaliu 08 - 01 - 2014 Just a tip : if you are playing a skillshot champion , wait for an enemy to move between the turret and the walls of the map . That small gap means that you can easily hit line skillshots like Nidalee spears and Lux ultimates . Rmo2 Senior Member 08 - 02 - 2014 I ca n ' t believe you forgot to mention blitzcrank . He is the god of ARAM . If he lands even 1 in 5 grabs he pretty much won the game . Nice guide though . 1 | [

So I ' m a bit embarrassed about making this thread because I ' ve been playing LoL for a while . . . But basically I was wondering if people have any jungling / ganking tips ( If they ' re Evelynn specific that would be perfect , but any overall tips are also warmly welcomed ) . Before someone cries ' noob ' or something in a similar vein , know that I tend to play characters like Sona , Janna , Karma , and ( Occasionally ) Soraka , so ganking or running around the jungle tends not to be at the top of my list of priorities when I have allies to buff / shield / heal / set up for kills . The reason I ' m asking for tips is because while support is definitely my comfort zone , I figured I wanted to give stealth a try . As I said above , any Evelynn specific tips would be amazing . However right now I ' m really in need of jungling / ganking tips in general : 1 . How / when to gank ? 2 . Any items I ca n ' t go without ? 3 . What of 1v1 combat with an enemy jungler ? Anything in that line of thought . Thanks in forward ! + 0 midnight illusio Senior Member 06 - 12 - 2012 First off , there is nothing to be ashamed about . Better to ask than to live in ignorance . Knowing when to gank is one of the hardest things for new junglers to learn , as it is the thing that makes or breaks the game . When you are jungling , you need to always keep an eye on what is happening in the lanes in order to know when the best time to gank . Before you initiate a gank , you need to talk to your team and ask them questions like : 1 . Are there any wards in the area ? This is very important as it limits the gank routes you can do if there are any wards . There is nothing worse than sitting in the bushes by a lane and not realising you are standing on top of an enemy ward . This not only wastes your time , but relieves pressure from the other lanes because the enemy knows there is no chance of you ganking them . 2 . Have the enemy champions used any summoner spells recently ? When you gank , you need to know if the enemy has any abilities that can either allow them to escape or turn the fight around and kill you . If no summoner spells have been used , you might need to gank a lane multiple times , once to get rid of summoners and a second time for the kill . 3 . Whether your team is strong enough to assist you . There have been many times when a jungler has come in for a gank without checking to make sure their teammates are ready for it and able to assist them . Take a look at the items on each side and decide whether you can beat them in a fight , and do n ' t gank unless you are given the green light from the people in that lane . If you are ever unsure about whether it is a good idea to gank a lane or not , do n ' t gank . It is better to just farm than to die in a gank , especially if you have buffs on you . If you die in a gank and give buffs to the enemy team , you will pretty much doom that lane to failure . Also be prepared for counter - ganks . Personally , I would stay away from Evelynn as she is very hit and miss as a champion , especially if you If you are new to jungling , I would recommend either Warwick or Jarvan to learn with . Both are very simple junglers and pretty safe as well , able to hold their own if you have to fight the enemy jungler . When jungling , you have 2 options for routes you can take through the jungle camps . 1 . fast gank route Wraiths - > Red buff - > gank - > Wraiths - > Wolves - > Blue buff - > recall / gank This route allows you to do a very fast level 2 gank before the laners reach level 2 , giving you a level advantage on them when you gank . Done right , this almost always results in either a kill or a burned summoner spell . 2 . heavy farm route . Wolves - > Blue buff - > Wraiths - > Red buff - > Double Golems - > Wraiths - > gank / recall . This route is for times when you just want to farm as much as possible , and get to level 4 as quickly as possible before you gank . Hopefully this helps . If you have any other questions , do n ' t hesitate to ask . + 3 xXQuickScoperzXx Member That ' a a very viable champion line - up you got there ( karma ? ? ? ? ? evelyn ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ) : P everything written above me is good ! but it is also a very important thing to remember that you ca n ' t gank all the time or you will get behind in farm / exp . When you want to gank kind of depends on your champion . . . if he has great early dmg for example lee sin you can do lvl 2 ganks but on champs like amumu you mostly want to wait till lvl 4 . you should also remember that if you are really behind for some reason ( lost lvl 1 fight for example ) you should focus on farming first so you do n ' t fall behind even further . you ask for items but that is different for every champion . . . for champions that rely on auto - attacking ( nocturne for example ) a wriggles is good a lot of times . but on some other champs like maokai or mundo you rely more on you abilities so a wriggles wo n ' t really benefit you . i ca n ' t give you a " general item build " ' cause there is none . . . you need to know your champion to know what to build . you are also asking info about 1v1 an enemy jungler . you can fight them if you are stronger at the moment and your lanes can come quicker than the enemy lanes . . . jungling is all about map - awareness . you do n ' t go 1v1 the enemy jungler when your mid lane is at base and their mid is still in lane because they can screw you over even if you are stronger than the enemy jungler . I hope this was helpfull ! + 0 Sir WeirdBro Senior Member Listen to midnight illusio . . . Dat guy will teach you everything ya wanna know ( no offend xXQuickScoperzXx ) midnight illusio Ah yes , I forgot to talk about items . When jungling , in most cases there are 3 different options for starting items that you can use , depending on the champion you play : 1 . Boots + 3 health pots . This start is great for champions that have very high sustain ( e.g. Warwick , Udyr , etc ) or if you want to do a fast level 2 gank and then recall . 2 . Cloth armour + 5 health pots . This start is used on champions that have low sustain in the first few levels and / or generally want to stay in the jungle as long as possible and farm up as much as they can . When going for this option , you will generally build a fast wriggles to help you sustain so you do n ' t have to keep buying potions all the time . 3 . Regrowth pendent + 1 health pot . This is used by very tanky champions who are pushing for the mid - late game by building an early philo stone . Examples of this are Malphite , Amumu and Rammus ( Rammus actually wants to gank a lot but with his powerball he does n ' t need boots and the philo stone will be built into a quick shurelya ' s ) . After that , it really depends on the champion what items you go for , however there are some exceptions to the options above . For example , Jungle Fiddlesticks usually starts with a Doran ' s Ring since he needs the mana regen and does n ' t need any health pots because of his sustain from drain . By the way , hey Crydar , have n ' t seen you around for awhile . How are things going with your Lee Sin jungle ? v1rtue There is a lot of useful advice in this thread . I have been struggling a lot of my jungle nocturne . It would either go well and we win the game , or I would fall behind and be useless until at least level 11 when I can use my ult a lot better . So , thank you midnight . Theres so much I still need to learn . General Stormfox Be sure to check out the other jungling related threads on the first page , we had a few of those recently and they contain some valuable information . 1 | [

When I do so intentionally I feel heat in the wood . . and it will not accept stain well . I figure the pores have closed for that to happen . So my theory is based on my experiences alone and nothing scientific . I was not aware of the methods the turners use by rubbing the stock with saw - dust while the stock is rotating on the lathe . My best country boy guess is that is produces friction . Friction produces heat and when wood wood polishes to shine . . the pores have been filled in some way as I see it . So . . look in a Webster Dictionary . . . burnish : . . . . to polish a surface with friction__ brightness . . luster . . Again . . . just my take as I have no degree on the wall from a Burnishing Institute of Technology nor do I seek higher knowledge by study of the subject over a period of time . I just know when I heat a wood surface with friction the pores appear to close and it takes on a polished look . That ' s about all I really need to know . . ha . . ha . . . ha . . ha . .ha . .

Again I can not say if the heat I mentioned has any effect on the crushing which does in essence close the grain . Years ago I would intentionally burnish wood ( especially softwood ) so that the oil stain I used then ( gel came latter ) would n ' t penetrate the pores so deeply and splotch . I sealed it with de - waxed shellac also but the pores seemed to close and I simply guessed it was from heat . Maybe that is not the case as it is simply crushed even though by going to higher grits of sand - paper did heat the wood ? Again . . I really ca n ' t say what happens technically but . . I can say I know what the results are and how to deal with them . I may very well burnish a maple and purple - heart box I am making in a few days as it will likely see no finish other than oils . The oily wood Phillip mentioned as it is probably transferring it ' s own oil to the burnished surface and might save a step . . . I can not say from a scientific stand - point but When I Googled . . it seems that Wood - carvers and Scrollers are well aware of burnishing also . I might ready more latter but I have a run of boxes to complete . . . so be it . : > ) Regards . . .

( post # 112102 , reply # 11 of 20 ) mike4244 on Wed , 01 / 07 / 2009 - 20 : 07 Sarge , you are correct . The heat from the spinning piece against the shavings is what burnishes the stock . Any species of shavings will work , so will almost anything else . I burnished a chess set with burlap once . The reason for this is I had a sinus infection and did not want to use anything that might be dusty . Worked as well as sawdust . The heat created is the only factor in a good burnishing . mike ( post # 112102 , reply # 13 of 20 ) on Thu , 01 / 08 / 2009 - 02 : 08 Thanks Mike as it just made common sense too me , anyway . It was just my guess as I have been burnishing end grain and used to to it with soft - wood when I used a lot years ago . And what you said about burlap makes sense as I have used it also . I keep it around for various purposes as my wife does crafts . You just have to apply more pressure than sanding . As a matter of fact I have some and may burnish my first little decorative box with it in a few days . I really am limited with sanding as this this is not that large and has the shape of a B - 2 Stealth Bomber making detail sanding a chore .

Best wishes , Metod ( post # 112102 , reply # 15 of 20 ) on Thu , 01 / 08 / 2009 - 23 : 41 As I stated Metod . . how important the heat is I ca n ' t really say ? But friction is extremely important and friction generates heat . The heat could be just a by - product of the friction or could be a key factor in why the combination results in burnished ? Again I am not a scientist nor intend to spend years in a Think Tank or monastery with testing for why . I know how to burnish and I know when I should use or avoid it . . . I think that is much more important than pin - pointing the why ? : > ) ( post # 112102 , reply # 16 of 20 ) on Fri , 01 / 09 / 2009 - 00 : 08 I did not mean to contradict you .

I simply do n ' t know why burnishing happens from a technical stand - point other than pressure which leads to friction and heat .

Are there certain woods , pieces , times , whatever , where burnishing is better ? This is really what I am looking for . Thanks for sharing your experience , MS ( post # 112102 , reply # 19 of 20 ) on Sat , 01 / 10 / 2009 - 04 : 26 I burnish end grain showing quite often MS . Like on table tops . . etc . I use to burnish a lot also when building with soft - wood back in the days when liquid oil stain was about all you could get . I was not all that familiar with de - waxed shellac in those days and you had to mix it so . . Soft - woods ( and even cherry ) is notorious for splotching with stain . The liquid oil stain would penetrate deep into pores used alone and was a pain to avoid splotch . So . . I burnished the wood by taking it to 320 and working the 320 grit rather hard with does the trick . BTW . . do n ' t go too high with sand - paper or you risk burnishing when you do n ' t want too . French polishing is a form of burnishing as the shellac is rubbed in with wrapped cloth as opposed to padding . I have n ' t French polished anything in 15 years or longer though . So . . mainly I use it for end grain as I tend to build larger carcass pieces . But . . I ' m doing my first set of small boxes and may use it there . I ' m almost to that point and I will try it on scrap sanding to 320 then burnishing with Abralon up the grits of 500 to 1000 and stop there . I want to see how it looks . If good . . simple oil will get the call at that point on the maple and purple - heart . It just depends on how it looks and is always good to test on scrap before you go live .

However , it is n ' t a shortcut . The only time I do it is after I ' ve finished planing a surface and it ' s already smooth and shiny . Rubbing it down with a fist full of shavings is just a final step to bring up a really nice surface . It is n ' t a substitute for all of the preceding work .

Notes on clear finish by Oscar MacQuiddy , in this article he states the friction produces heat and fine wood dust . the heat softens the oil and opens the pours so they are filled with the wood dust , eliminating the need to fill the pours with a seperate prouduct and sealing the wood with another . From my studies this process goes back to the mid 1700 ' s . This process is close to French Polish which came much later but French Polish did n ' t provide a water resistant finish . | [

in reply to JonE original on Fri 10202006 0256 A good marine spar varnish finish will hold up for a very long time in a place where its only challenge is temperature change and not sun Its UV from the sun the destroys exterior finishes Seal the teak with a low viscosity epoxy such as that made by Smith Co and then apply half a dozen coats of a good spar varnish such as Epifanes and I would expect many years of service But unfinished teak will hold up quite well though you will probably have to sand it periodically to freshen it up It wouldnt turn grey very quickly out of the sun It could also be subject to mildew if the shower isnt well ventilated The finish would pretty much eliminate that How about using a cellular PVC such as Azek used for building trim You have to allow for expansion

heard of old Ironsides Sometimes a particular wood is selected for reasons that has little to do with decay resistance For example some boats are built out of light weight woods like cedar for speed

http://forums.gardenweb.com/discussions/1445265/fertilizing-raspberries-and-blueberries | Fertilizing Raspberries and Blueberries Comments ( 22 ) bamboo_rabbit Keren , For the raspberries I just use 10 - 10 - 10 just when they start pushing new growth . . .maybe somebody else will have more suggestions . For the blueberries the advice to wait a year is wrong . What you want to do is fertilize them monthly or even weekly but with very very small amounts . Find some ammonium sulfate and use 1 / 2 tsp per gallon weekly and after a month or so switch to 1 tsp per gallon of water weekly . Just make sure when you fertilize them they are not dry . Do it after a rain or water them one day and fertilize the next . They will take off and grow a lot in that first season . Like Save February 1 , 2013 ericwi The advantage to waiting a year before fertilizing blueberry transplants is that the shrub has more time to establish a root system , before developing new leaves that demand additional water . If the shrub is transplanted in the early spring , before April 15 , it will have a better chance to put down new roots . Shrubs that are transplanted in May or June are more likely to green up and then die back in July or August , when the roots may not be able to keep up with the leaves . My methods for fertilizer application Like Save February 1 , 2013 KerenR Ericwi , is that the same for raspberries ? Should I wait a year to fertilize ? I waited a year ( besides soil prep ) for my apple trees too . I was thinking of using Holly Tone for both the raspberries and blueberries . Is it okay to mix that in the soil before planting and then wait a year to actually fertilize with it ? Or should I just fertilize in the fall , or go ahead with spring and fall ? Bradybb WA - Zone8 Keren , Hollytone is fairly mild , but using fertilizer too late in the year can cause growth to happen , which can be hurt by oncoming cold weather . Usually , most fertilizing is done before September , even August . Brady ericwi I am finding that it is easier to grow raspberries than it is to grow blueberries . Our raspberry plants , everbearing red , seem to grow like weeds , and they tend to spread , so there are always volunteers that can be dug up and transplanted in the spring , if I want to expand the bed . I rarely apply fertilizer to the raspberries , but I do mulch them in the fall with shredded maple tree leaves . I water them during the summer drought . I ' m not against applying fertilizer to raspberries , bamboo_rabbit Eric , With all due respect that is bad advice . Fertilizer simply gives plants an abundance of the elements they need to grow . If the plant top is growing the roots are growing . The reason why the old out dated advice about not fertilizing the first year is people tended to burn the young plants as their root zone is very compact . If you feed very diluted amounts of fertilizer weekly to plants in moist soil they will respond and be twice as big in a year as opposed if you do n ' t fertilize them at all . Just go to one of the university sites like the University of Florida or any of the land grant schools and follow their advice . This post was edited by bamboo_rabbit on Sat , Feb 2 , 13 at 9 : 14 February 2 , 2013 The native soil we have here in Madison is high in clay content , and the heavy clay slows down root development . With transplant blueberry shrubs , especially bare - root stock , the plant can develop more tissue above ground than the roots can support , as the days lengthen and the temperatures rise . The result is brown leaves , and eventually a dead shrub , even when the shrub is kept watered . This has actually happened to me , I do n ' t need to consult with anyone about it . There are several February 2 , 2013 KerenR Ericwi , I agree with you . I planted these blueberry bushes late winter two years ago when we had an unseasonably warm winter and early spring . I planted them in February , and they started leafing out with a few weeks . They hung on for a while , but the plant could n ' t handle the growth with no root system . My local gardening store told me I just got unlucky with the warm weather coming to quickly , and my plants could n ' t handle it . They both died . I planted It sounds like maybe I could mix some of the Holly Tone in with the compost , manure , and sand for the raspberries , and then not fertilize until late summer or next spring . Does that sound like a good plan ? Would you even fertilize late summer , or just wait until next spring ? Mixing in the Holly Tone in the soil should be good , right ? Eric , I am from PA and we had heavy clay soils . Are you saying you do n ' t amend the soil just plop them straight in to your clay ? If so I think we have found why your plants are not doing well . Brown leaves are a pretty clear indication of too much water as well as not enough . I guess sitting in a bowl of clay would do a good job of rotting the roots off . If you amend the soil correctly and fertilize the plants they are strong and robust . DWD2 KerenR , There are a bunch of good resources out there about blueberry nutrition . I can not help you with raspberries . Take at look at these which should help answer your blueberry questions . http : / / extension . oregonstate . edu / catalog / pdf / em / em8918 . pdf http : / / nysipm . cornell . edu / organic_guide / blueberry . pdf http : / / www . spectrumanalytic . com / support / library / pdf / Fertilizing % 20Blueberries . pdf http : / / blueberries . msu . edu / nutrition Good luck with your berries ! February 3 , 2013 Doglips In part they are talking about winter burn , exaserbated by fertilizer . February 3 , 2013 KerenR , it got up to 18 degrees F , today , and we have about 6 inches of snow on the ground , here in Madison . Clearly I am living in a different climate than you . With regard to your blueberry shrubs that failed to survive , my best guess is that you had too much fertilizer in the soil around the roots . It is a common mistake , we all have made it at one time or other . If the amount of fertilizer is too high , the salts go into solution , and jean001a It ' s often helpful to know which city & state you live in .

I guess I assumed that my zone 7 was what people needed . I am in Monroe , North Carolina just south of Charlotte . ahajmano speaking of adding small amounts of fertilizer : I use an all - organic 4 - 4 - 4 with bacterial and fungal inoculates . Am I correct in my understanding that organic fertilizers break down slowly over time and therefore feed for a longer duration ? I have fed all my 15 gallon container blueberries ( + soil sulfur ) and ground - planted fruit trees this way . Hoping for good results this spring ! February 4 , 2013 Bradybb WA - Zone8 From what I ' ve read , Blueberries need an Ericoid mycorrhizal type of fungi to benefit them and the more common ectomycorrhizas and endomycorrhizas are not of much use . Ahajmano , what was the fertilizer and does it have the Ericaceous fungi ? I ' ve seen the fungi being sold online , but at $ 50 a shot , it is a little expensive for me to want to get . Brady This post was edited by Bradybb on Mon , Feb 4 , 13 at 4 : 50 February 4 , 2013 Below is from the University of North Carolina . . . . . .you will see the experts recommend fertilizer the first year . You will find no university in this nation that recommends no fertilizer the first year . You have to amend the soil if you want quick growth . Fertilization a ) Use Caution - Blueberries are easily damaged by excess fertilizer . Apply the recommended amount from a soil test report and allow 4 inches of rain or an equivalent amount of irrigation between applications . b ) First Year - Do not fertilize immediately after planting . Wait until the first leaves have reached full size , then apply 1 Tbs of a special azalea fertilizer , 12 - 12 - 12 or 10 - 10 - 10 within a circle 1 foot from the plants . Repeat application of fertilizer at 6 week intervals depending upon rainfall or irrigation until mid - August in the Coastal Plain and mid - July in the Mountains . Use 1 / 2 Tbs of ammonium nitrate instead of the complete fertilizer for the second and subsequent applications if phosphorus c ) Second Year - Double the first year ' s rates , but increase the circle around plants to 1 1 / 2 ft . Apply the first application when new growth begins in spring . d ) Bearing Plants - When growth begins in the spring , apply 1 cup of complete fertilizer such as 10 - 10 - 10 within a circle 3 ft from the plant . If more vigorous growth is desired , sidedress with 1 / 4 cup of ammonium nitrate at 6 week intervals . On mature bushes 6 to 12 inches of new growth is adequate for optimal balance of plant size and yield . Additional growth must be pruned away . This may result in a loss in production , but it is necessary to keep the plants from becoming e ) Lowering pH - If the soil pH is slightly high in an established planting based on a soil test ; then sidedress with ammonium sulfate rather than ammonium nitrate . If the pH is 0.5 units or more above the acceptable range , apply wettable sulfur in a narrow band under the drip line of the bush at the rate of 0.1 lb per bush to lower pH 1 unit .

Also , reducing any upper respiratory allergic responses helps . Try Echinacea DAILY in about 1 / 3 the bottle ' s recommended dose . It minimizes the histamine release from " mast " cells , which in turn reduces inflammation in the nasal passages and that in turn means your sinuses do n ' t clog as much so the pressure changes hurt less . It takes 2 - 3 weeks to take effect . . . try it for AT LEAST three months and see if the severity of the headches is lessened . You wo n ' t see a dramatic change , just less of a problem .

I spent three days out of ten with blinding , vomiting , headaches . I also had three family members including one in - law , who could not be pleased , and I accepted it to keep the peace . I finally reached the point where I decided to no longer try to please these people . Over the period of one year my headaches eased up and then vanished . I would occasionally have low grade forehead sinus headaches after the migraines disappeared , and one day related it to the air pressure . I did n ' t need to check the weather maps once I made the connection . I would simply go to the bathroom and check the water level in the toilet .

I think I ' m just doomed to suffer for the rest of my life . I used to think I had allergies ; as a child I tested positive for allergy to dust . But last year I went to an allergist and did April 23 , 2003 darlene87 I also have severe headaches for 2 days when we have a full moon . This has been going on for over 40 years , with the severity staying the same . When I have one of those type headaches , I know it is full moon time . If the moon can have effects on the tides of the ocean , why not the body , which is mostly water . April 28 , 2003 cricket_Mo Geez , I was thinking I was the only one that gets headaches from the weather ! Nice to know I ' m not alone . Does anyone know if there has ever been any research done on this ? I ' ve looked , do n ' t find anything . Take care everyone . Thunderstorm season coming soon . Thats the worst time of the years for me . cricket_Mo April 28 , 2003 Judy_B_ON So called " weather " headaches are actually migraine , and a large amount of research has been done on them . There are a number of medications designed to treat or prevent them . Ask your family doctor about migraine treatment or for referral to a headache specialist , see the link below for more info about migraine . http : / / www . migraines . org / myth / mythreal . htm Here is a link that might be useful : Article about Treatment April 29 , 2003 Had been treated for years for Migraines . Nothing much helped . Medications do n ' t seem to work for me . I ' ve not found any research of headaches associated with weather . Ca n ' t say I agree these are migraines . Know what those feel like . Unless of course one can have an assortment of migraines ? These headaches are sinus related . No infection . Pressure that can even make your ears pop . Thanks , cricket May 1 , 2003 Sairbie My whole family gets " weather headaches . " Mine are quite mild , but my mother ' s are rather strong . We all find that mint or milfoil / yarrow tea helps clear up the sinus congestion quite nicely . For the headache itself ( if it still plagues you after that ) , I would use lavender leaves . However , milfoil / yarrow normally works for the headache as well . May 1 , 2003 Sairbie , Is there a certain mint that works better than another ? I ' ve used the over the counter mint teas . YUK ! Started growing my own . What I have does n ' t seem very strong . The yarrow . You use the leaves , Flower , Roots ? Can you tell me more . I ' ll try anything . Thanks so much ! cricket May 2 , 2003 Sairbie Peppermint is best for migraines . As for the parts of the yarrow , either the leaves or the flowers work , really . At least that ' s what I find . I hope I ' ve helped you : ) 1 Like May 2 , 2003 ReddKatt There is a great herbal concotion that GNC sells that works WONDERS for my terrible * weather * headaches . There is a lot at work with these headaches : ~ colloidal silver works WONDERS to kill bacteria in the sinuses and kill even minor infections . It is available in a nasal spray bottle and was a LIFESAVER for me ! ~ decongestants will sometimes help ~ Antiinflamatories will sometimes help * motrin * ~ there is an AWESOME herbal blend that GNC carries . I take it almost every week . This past Winter where we in the MidAtlantic states had the worst storm season on record , I was in capacitated most of the winter HATED IT ! The GNC product is called Migraplex and contains : B - 2 Magnesium Ginger Root Extract Feverfew Leaves extract I have also had good results with Migracin , by a company called Nature ' s Herbs * Twinlab Company * . This contains : Feverfew White Willow Bark DLPA ( DL - Phenlalanine ) Aromatic Herbs * peppermint most noticably * Both have helped TREMENDOUSLY ! Take either as soon as you even SUSPECT the migraine / weather headache is heading over you ! Much sympathy and understanding from another human barometer . . . Kathie Harford County , Maryland 1 Like June 8 , 2003 BabylonGarden This is a terrific thread - - really enjoyed reading all the posts . . . thought I would contribute what I ' ve learned over the last year and a half : I ' ve had chronic daily headaches , bouts of sinus headaches , and during the last year nail - thru - eye migraines . . . . In the last year , after much research and experimenting , I finally came up with a regimen that keeps my sinuses clear and pain - free ( no more rotating Tylenol , Ibuprofen , and Aleve day after day ! ! ) 1 . ) Bought , read , and digested _Sinus Survival_ by Robert S . Ivker 2 . ) Bought a NETI POT ( google it to get description and pictures ) and taught myself to use it twice a day . * This one habit has been the single most important change in my daily habits for helping my sinuses heal and prevent infections . In January 2003 , I celebrated one whole year with no doctor visits / no antibiotics for sinus infections . I * had * infections last year , but I battled them with persistent use of the neti pot and two additional ingredients : the herb goldenseal and colloidal silver 3 . ) Researched and experimented with many herbal tinctures for helping clear up sinus infections . I started with the recent Mayo Clinic research that most sinus infections are FUNGAL rather than BACTERIAL . . . ( made sense to me as antibiotics never really killed the infections just beat them down for a bit ) . . . . anyway , the upshot of all that experimenting was the discovery that the herb Goldenseal ( on the endangered list ) really cleaned out an infection . I like HerbPharm ' s organic Goldenseal - - it comes in 4 . ) I ' ve also researched and experimented with Colloidal Silver , and have found it very effective with my neti pot for combating sinus infections . I like Sovereign Silver Colloidal Silver - - usually I just make my own with my colloidal silver generator . 5 . ) Link to one site that carries a nice stainless steel neti pot . I travel with my neti pot , and have found the porcelain ones very fragile . . . the stainless steel ones are tough and hold much more saline ( which I really like ) . www . healthandyoga . com ( they used to be about $ 14.95 - - cheaper than the porcelain ones ! ) Cheers , BG June 18 , 2003 Ina Plassa_travis welcome to the home of the trick sinus ! I have had no luck with the colloidal silver , but I know many people who have . . . I DO however , have a NETI pot , and have progressed from sterile saline in a bottle to brewing my own with sea salt , and hydrosols - the water left over from distilling essential oils . the Rosemary and Tea tree ones seem to work the best for my condition on a day - to day basis , but I have added lavander oil , garlic juice , and even a ' match - head ' size shot of wasabi powder to the blend , searching for the perfect solution . June 19 , 2003 ekohrman I have suffered weather related sinus headaches for years . I take at least 4 medications ( Rx ) and antibiotics when I get infections . I irrigate my sinus 2 - 3 times a day with saline ( this helps more than anything ) .I have had 4 surgeries and the doctors ca n ' t figure out why I still have headaches . I need to try something new . I ca n ' t find the previous thread so I do n ' t know the pressure points . I would like to try those if someone September 3 , 2003 littledesertrodent This will only cure the headache and not whats causing it but try growing feverfew and when a headache comes on eat a leaf or two , voila your headache is gone ( temporarily only cause if it is caused from sinuses it ' s only treating the symptom and not the problem ) I grow feverfew on my back porch and it does wonders for headaches . September 3 , 2003 Katt_TX I get good results with a product called HAS made by Nature ' s Way . Ingredients : brigham tea , marshmallow root , burdock , cayenne , goldenseal , elecampane , parsley , cleavers , and rosemary . It is more effective if you take it regularly and not just when symptoms appear . The recommended dose is 2 tabs 3 times a day , but I just take 2 tabs once a day . September 5 , 2003 hedake A friend sent me a link to your forum the other day and I decided to post because I want to thank everyone who ' s taken the time to share their experiences and offer their tips . Iwanted to share mine as well in the hope that someone here might benefit . I ' ve suffered with * weather head * for several years now and have had little success with doctors or any treatments . Earlier this year I was scanning the web and came acrossed a product called Rhino - flow from respironics . I was actually searching for a C - PAP device since I also have mild Obstructive Sleep Apnea . I thought I would give the Rhino - flow a try since I needed a scrip for the C - PAP . It is a bit pricey ( about a buck and a half ) , but I took a chance on it because like many of you have written , I would have tried anything . It is probably similar in what it does to the Neti pot that I saw listed here . The exception is that this machine uses a small air compressor to shoot a saline mist in to your sinus cavities . There are 2 phases , the first is a lower pressure cycle that loosens the stuff up , and the second one is higher pressure that shoots the mist farther up in to your sinus cavity . During the second cycle , you hold your breath and make a swallowing motion ( you arent swallowing anything , just doing the I can have the WORST sinus headache in the world and it ' s a gonner after using the RF . And now that I can breathe through my nose at night , my OSA is much better . The thought of using this contraption for the rest of my life is not something I look forward to , but I ' m thankful to have something that works . I am going to try using some of the herbal things and the other products that have been suggested here in the RF and possibly might be able to reduce my frequency of use . I use it every couple of days now , sometimes twice a day when the weather ' s really screwy . December 21 , 2003 chagrin Nobody would ever believe me . I suffered for over 50 years , since I was a child , from what I came to call " barometric " headache . Barometric torture was more like it . At its worst it seriously affected my life because I was all but incapacitated . Doctors were of no help , and I even attended herbology school in hopes of discovering a remedy , which I did not . But , several years ago at the end of the most stressful period of my life during which I developed another strange ailment , February 19 , 2004 patspan I empathisize with your weather headaches . I am from the humid east coast and suffered for may years with this . They can put you down for days . The best thing I found was a mucous free diet and plain old steam . No gluten , sweets , dairy and low carbs . A shower brought great relief . I almost never get these headaches anymore and I live in a humid area in Pa . Remember if you are taking herbs for this to make sure you are not allergic to the family they are in . also , take a run and a break from them . No matter how pure , our livers recognize herbs as foreign . I advise all my clients when taking them to consider to never do so for more than 2 weeks straight , especially with herbs such as goldenseal . 2 weeks on , a week off is a good way to remember . For pain , ibuprofin is very good as it is an anti antiflammatory and works on the swollen membranes . Saline spray used on a regular basis assists in keeping the sinuses mositurized as does drinking lots of warm fluid . Other helpful herbs I have used are cayenne , horseradish , hot mustard and raw onions . For me often just chopping an onion brings relief . I wish you the best . February 19 , 2004 moonwolf23 Their are different types of headaches . A lot of times stress headaches feel like migraines . Which is probably why the person who said bleep it and moved off the mountain headaches were better . Also for the weather system headaches it might also be your eye color . I have light sensitive blue eyes . Its a killer if i do n ' t get ibuprophen in me after a sunny day . February 24 , 2004 batmanRobin I ' ve had " weather headaches " for at least 20 years . I was taking Advil Cold and Sinus but now that doesnt seem to work either . I usually feel the headache coming on when i wake up so I immediately take a swig of gatorade ( to rehydrate ) and some asprin . Have n ' t tried any of the recommended herbs yet . The sooner you start treating it the better but most of the time it seems like you just have to suffer through it . Saline seems to be useless once the November 19 , 2004 Judy_B_ON BatmanRobin : If you feel the headaches coming on and they are weather related , you likely have migraine , not sinus headaches . Ibrophen ( Advil ) will work better than aspirin and there are some prescription medications that will work too . November 20 , 2004 caitecat Hi , I also suffer from pressure headaches . I ' ve gone from prescription meds for the pain , to over the counter meds . One day my husband brings home a new product by Aleve . It ' s a non drowsy formula for sinus & headache . You only take one caplet every 12 hrs . It ' s in a green box with yellow lettering . If I take one at the beginning of my pain , Aleve wipes it out . I can only say , THANK YOU GOD .

October 24 , 2005 apollog > > The product promoted by the previous poster ( who ' s just registered with GW ) has nothing to do with herbalism . There is no clinical evidence in support of the product on the website , and a PubMed scientific literature search only turns up one paper that suggested that xylitol had an antibacterial effect in experimentally - induced sinus infection in rabbits . Yes , it is obvious that they dropped by to plug their product . On the other hand , xylitol is a plant compound , just as salicylic acid ( original source of aspirin ) is a plant compound . So to say that it is completely unrelated to herbalism is not quite on the mark . You missed several PubMed studies on xylitol , eric . The one I linked to below found a decrease in Staph bacteria in the nasal passages after four days use in real live humans . You really need to do the research before playing expert , son . I used a xylitol nasal spray once - do n ' t remember the brand . . . it did n ' t help me , but your mileage may vary . I find good results from a daily saline irrigation , aka neti pot .

So to say that it is completely unrelated to herbalism is not quite on the mark . " Xylitol is chiefly found in various fruits and vegetables , so unless one wanted to describe all of these as herbs ( a bit of a stretch ) , it ' s not an herbal remedy . Speaking of needing to " do the research " , your link has nothing to do with sinus headaches ( the subject of this thread ) and does not mention sinusitis . It ' s important when citing research to make sure that it ' s relevant to the topic at hand . At least the sellers / spammers of " Sinofresh " spared us the typical list of irrelevant papers that tend to turn up whenever supplement pushers try to impress us with " science " , and which generally involve studies in test tubes or lower mammals , or involve unrelated conditions with an invitation to " connect the dots " . They also seem to have avoided testimonials . Instead we ' re just supposed to take them at their word , buy the product and invest in the company . Kind of refreshing , in a sleazy sort of way .

You would n ' t know relevant if it bit you on the hand , eric . Xylitol has been extensively studied for its effects on bacterial ecology . In chewing gum , it not only replaces sugar ( reducing their food supply ) , but xylitol itself has an inhibitory effect on the ability of many bacteria to grow and spread in the mouth and sinuses . It inhibits the bacteria that cause cavities and gingivitis . It has been shown that xylitol creams can reduce colonization of Staph . aureus on the skin in patients with atopic dermatitis If someone is interested in a non - toxic agent that has been shown to reduce levels of several common disease - causing bacteria , xylitol may be a help . If someone is looking for a product with 567 studies and the FDA ' s stamp of approval for that specific purpose , then xylitol is not the product for you . Here ' s another study that demonstrates that xylitol may be of use to improve bacterial ecology and prevent ear aches , and it is backed up two clinical trials . Clearly , eric is pretending to know more than he does - if his cursory search on PubMed does n ' t turn up evidence he likes , he is quick to dismiss that approach as quackery . Xylitol in preventing acute otitis media . Xylitol is a polyol sugar alcohol and is referred to as birch sugar , because it can be produced from birch . Natural sources of xylitol include plums , strawberries , raspberries and rowan berries . Xylitol inhibits the growth of Streptococcus pneumoniae and it inhibits the attachment of both pneumococci and Haemophilus influenzae on the nasopharyngeal cells . In two clinical trials xylitol was found efficient to prevent the development of acute otitis media with a daily dose of 8.4 - 10 g of xylitol given in five divided doses .

September 9 , 2008 rusty_blackhaw Typical tactics employed when a poster points out that there ' s no evidence that an " alt med " product helps a particular condition - attack the poster , and try to change the subject . The subject here is headaches associated with weather changes , and the possible role of sinus inflammation / infection , not acute ear infections in kids . With regard to sinusitis , the kind that can result in recurrent headaches will typically be chronic sinusitis . As such , it can not routinely be blamed on bacterial infection and xylitol - containing products are not the treatment of choice , assuming the " active " ingredient is even capable of reaching the sinus mucosa : " For example , one study reported the following for patients with chronic sinusitis who had not responded to antibiotics : 30 % had no evidence of bacteria in their passageways . 20 % had bacteria unrelated to infection . " Chronic sinusitis is related to a variety of problems , including allergies , asthma , anatomic problems and in some cases fungal infection . More information available here . Before trying various cures touted over the Internet , it would be very helpful to get an accurate diagnosis in the first place ( migraines are treated differently from chronic sinusitis ) . By the way , an earlier poster recommended colloidal silver to " kill bacteria in the sinuses " . Physicians have abandoned this product as a routine spray in part because chronic use can permanently discolor the skin gray - blue ( some credulous alt med advocates still promote the product despite its dangers and limited evidence of effectiveness ) . " If someone is looking for a product with 567 studies and the FDA ' s stamp of approval for that specific purpose , then xylitol is not the product for you . " We ' d appreciate just one good study that specifically addresses sinus problems . : ) September 9 , 2008 I agree that there are many causes of sinusitis - if that is even what the person had . Since the original question was posted in 2003 , I doubt that that person is checking the board daily for advice , and I was discussing sinus health more generally . While xylitol is not a cure - all for all sinus conditions , it can improve the types of bacteria present in some people and is not the zero you erroneously dismissed it as . Biofilm forming bacteria are a common feature of chronic sinusitis , as evidenced by the link below . Xylitol interferes with the ability of many disease causing bacteria to form films and remain in the sinuses , mouth , etc . Staph aureus , for example , is cultured from 20 % of people with chronic sinusitis , and other pathogenic bacteria are common . Antibiotics are commonly prescribed for sinusitis , and resistance of bacteria in the nasal / sinus areas to antibiotics is increasing . The fact that a simple compound like xylitol can reduce the need for antibiotics in a variety of related conditions is of interest to me , but obviously not to you . Prevalence of biofilm - forming bacteria in chronic rhinosinusitis . Your linked study does not mention the product we were spammed with in this forum . It does n ' t mention whether such products would have any effect on bacteria in the sinuses . It does n ' t refer to xylitol as useful therapy in chronic sinusitis . It does n ' t help us decide whether biofilm - forming bacteria ( aggregates of different bacterial species present in association with extracellular material ) cause chronic sinusitis ( in fact , this has not been established ) . Interesting article , yes . But " of interest " does not mean " run out and buy the product " . As mentioned previously , we do n ' t even know if the stuff gets up into your sinuses ( doubtful ) , or if squirting it into your nose changes or reduces the kind of bacteria that grow in the sinuses , assuming they have anything to do with a person ' s chronic headaches or other , possibly sinus - related symptoms . " I agree that there are many causes of sinusitis - if that is even what the person had . " Would you agree that it ' d be worthwhile to get an accurate diagnosis and recommendations for treatment from a competent health professional before pursuing unproven remedies on the Internet ? > > Your linked study does not mention the product we were spammed with in this forum . We are talking about xylitol . In another thread , you made the connection that heavy metals are bad , some ayurvedic products have high levels of heavy metals , therefore some ayuvedic products are bad . But here , you are unable to do the same thing - xylitol changes the bacterial ecology , product x contains xylitol , but we do n ' t know if product x has any effect on bacterial ecology because there are n ' t 300 studies directly proving it , yada yada . . . > > But " of interest " does not mean " run out and buy the product " . Indeed . I never suggested such a thing . I even mentioned the fact that I have used xylitol and found no benefit - perhaps because my case is more related to allergies . > > Would you agree that it ' d be worthwhile to get an accurate diagnosis and recommendations for treatment from a competent health professional before pursuing unproven remedies on the Internet ? Sure , assuming such a thing is possible . How many people out there have gone to various doctors for years , used their ' proven ' products , and still have chronic sinus problems ? ? Quite a few , I would say . In one recent study , less than 20 % of physicians got it right with respect to antibiotics and sinusitis . If 80 % of doctors in one sample are not getting it right , then I would say there might be reason to seek out a different strategy for a non - life threatening condition . Criteria - based diagnosis and antibiotic overuse for upper respiratory infections . September 10 , 2008 Yes , we ' re talking about xylitol . So why try to change the subject to ayurvedic medicines ? Xylitol is not an ayurvedic product . " we do n ' t know if product x has any effect on bacterial ecology because there are n ' t 300 studies directly proving it , yada yada . . . " As mentioned before , just one study showing any value for xylitol in sinusitis would be appreciated . Regarding the paper that looked at videotapes of doctor visits and decided that sinusitis is being overdiagnosed : note their emphasis on criteria - based diagnosis . The authors do not mention xylitol . They do not recommend buying every product sold on the Internet or touted in forums based on testimonials . The emphasis is on reducing antibiotic use and using objective criteria to make accurate diagnoses . Once that ' s accomplished , it follows that the best course is to use proven treatments , which may or may not include antibiotics . September 10 , 2008 > > Regarding the paper that looked at videotapes of doctor visits and decided that sinusitis is being overdiagnosed : note their emphasis on criteria - based diagnosis . The authors do not mention xylitol . Of course that comment of mine was n ' t about xylitol - it was in response to your question about going to ' competent health professional ' for sinus conditions That study showed that over 4 out of 5 doctors who diagnosed a bacterial infection and prescribed antibiotics were wrong ! Where is the evidence that a person is better off going to a doctor for a mild sinus condition than not ? Where are the evidence - based medicine studies that compare the consequences of un - needed antibiotics in 83 % of patients misdiagnosed with bacterial sinusitis vs doing nothing or using some other approach like saline nasal irrigation ? They do n ' t exist ! ! So do n ' t pretend that the canned answer ' go see a doctor ' is supported by evidence - in this case , it may be just the opposite . Apart from making sweeping conclusions on physicians ' diagnostic abilities on the basis of one paper - what that particular study on diagnosing sinusitis does n ' t mention is how often people who came in with conditions they thought were sinusitis ( or had no idea about ) got correctly diagnosed with completely different disorders - migraines , allergies , tumors etc . If we could all self - diagnose " mild sinusitis " with confidence , or depend on strangers on an Internet forum to do it for us , we would n ' t have to worry about missing a more serious or readily treatable condition ( and most people who ' ve posted here have n ' t referred to a " mild " condition , but rather to debilitating headaches ) . Seeing as how you ' ve indicated elsewhere how much you despise the medical profession , and wo n ' t even acknowledge the wisdom of consulting Getting back to xylitol , if there still are questions about the harm in trying an unproven therapy for something one thinks may be sinusitis ( aside from wasting time and money and potentially overlooking another disorder ) - consider the fact that repeated xylitol use , just like antibiotic misuse , can spur the development of resistant bacteria . For instance , xylitol - resistant bacteria that cause tooth decay have been found in the mouth after oral use of xylitol . What would happen if chronic use of a xylitol - containing nasal spray led to development of We just do n ' t know - just like we do n ' t know if xylitol would do any good for people with sinusitis . And maybe it ' s not a great idea for us to be guinea pigs for such a product , even if the advertising spam and do n ' t - trust - doctors diatribes sound alluring . pamala2132 I have always had sinus related events . However , when I turned 50 there was a sharp increase which now included low grade headaches , migraines , loud white noise in ears , muffled hearing and a general fatigue . I have had sinus surgery , been to a neurologist for migraines , a sleep doctor for the fatigue and not one of these helped to get rid of symptoms . I do know that weather does affect my head . I accept that and try and cope . I try to recognize when I am heading into one of those times and even though I see it coming , I do n ' t have any idea how to stop it or lessen the symptoms . So , I have decided that traditional medicine is not the way to go . Does anyone who reads this forum have any ideas for me ? November 11 , 2012 Gaucho I had suffered for many years with sinus like headaches - and I was the " Human Barometer " most people on here can relate to - a few hours before a rainstorm or a change of pressure , I would suffer a terrible pressure headache / migraine . This then manifested into a constant pain in the front of my head , making me unable to shake my head because of the pain . This then lead to fits of feeling dizzy when my head was dipped and then I raised it . After I started getting my right leg numb for a few seconds after one of these incidents , I sought a better remedy than the usual Doctor issued medication . I discovered Oil Pulling . Using extra virgen coconut oil , within 2 weeks , I had been cured ! No more headaches , no more pain in the forehead , no more sinus pain and no more dizzyness ! ! The other day , it started raining - a thunderstorm and I thought - hang on - I do n ' t have a migraine ! It was then I knew I had cured it ! Please - do a search on Oil Pulling and try it out - it cost me 7 dollars for a 500ml pot of Coconut oil ( it is expensive here in Brazil ) , but it was worth every penny ! I hope this helps anyone out there that is having the same problems I had .

Most of the time I end up with an ear infection a day or 2 after ( Due to the fact that , for me anyways , it cause post nasal drip ) . I have been searching all over for ways to help , cause I would much rather not have to deal with it so much . But it is nice to know that I am not the only one with this August 6 , 2013 mnfrost I also suffer from weather - related headaches , and I have been diagnosed with migraines . I never thought of my weather - related headaches as migraines though . My migraines feel totally different . I can usually tell when a storm is going to come through , because I get a dull , sometimes throbbing headache . Sometimes the pressure in my head makes my jaw and teeth hurt .

I finally put 2 & 2 together recently and realized I was able to predict rain a day before due to sinus headaches and continue to feel the effect a day later . Of course , most people said it must be mold or something else being stirred up here in KY that has my sinuses out of whack . Now I KNOW I ' m not crazy and VERY much appreciate the helpful suggestions as I discovered allergy medications do June 13 , 2014 jck1224 I agree .

I recently went from a slight cold , to complete laryngitis , and thought that I was recovering until I woke up one morning with a swollen eye . I went to the doctor , and of course was put on oral antibiotics - with an added sulfur eye drop solution to use 4 times a day !

I do n ' t get sinus headaches , allergies or the issues with pain and discomfort discussed here ; but I ' ve known since I was 8 or 9 that the lower part of my nose gets visibly wider and longer ( to me at least ) during the humid months of spring and summer and contracts again when the humidity drops in the fall . For a long time I thought the issue was localized ; perhaps a property of the glands or blood vessels just under the skin , in the fleshy area under the bridge ; but after having explored dermatologic and immunologic explanations and even having a CT scan taken of my face and sinuses , I ' m thinking this has more to do with the actual contraction and expansion of my sinuses and in turn , my nasal cavities as the weather changes . I ' ve never had anyone tell me , " Gee , your nose is a If there is a connection , maybe I should be glad that I just get uglier rather than experience the suffering everyone else here has . But it would be nice to find a way to determine what exactly the cause is so the effect can be muffled or even canceled altogether . October 14 , 2016 lazy_gardens Detailaddict - Have someone take photos , full front and profile , when you think your nose is smaller and when you think it is larger . Then overlay them and match up the ears and eyes and chin ( and any freckles ) . If there is a size difference , you should see it . What you describe : " this has more to do with the actual contraction and expansion of my sinuses and in turn , my nasal cavities as the weather changes .

I want to grow winter melon . What does it taste like ? ? Can it be eaten raw or is it best to cook it ? ? Is there a small fruited variety which still gets the white powdery bloom on the fruits ? Thanks ! ! DL Email Save Comment 3 Like 1 Comments ( 3 ) lali I ' ve never tried eating winter melon raw , I ' ve always used it it to make soup . Here ' s typical Chinese recipe for Winter Melon Soup ( but I use chicken stock to cook the melon in instead of adding it at the end ) . The melon itself is quite bland , but when cooked takes on the flavors of the broth . Asian markets sell winter melons whole or in quartered pieces and you can give it a try . I buy the quartered pieces myself since some are quite large and I do n ' t need that much . lali Like Save August 21 , 2009 cyrus_gardner I bough a quarter few days ago and made soup with pork neck bones , carrots , onions , ginger , turmeric root , lemon grass , tomatoes . The reason I bought it was that I had the impression that it is Shark fin melon . When cooked , I did not find pronounced strands in it . But the soup was good . Asian terminology sometimes can be confusing to us . What we call melon are sweet and eaten row . Asians call some squash and pumpkins " melon " . Another one is bitter melon , which is a bitter squash / cucumber . Yet anothe one is called " fuzzy melon " which again is a squash to me .

Did you buy these seeds in India or did you order it from here ? I looked at echonet . org but they are not offering seeds for this plant .

In my last post I was refering to my unsuccessful attempts at germinating Valor - Papdi seeds that I have from India . If you have any suggestions please let me know .

It ' s been a week and i see 1 sprouting out of 12 i planted . It ' s been cold here the last week i think they probably need to be in 70deg . like the eggplants . Try to put the tray on top of your refrigerator or heater for a few hours . Good Luck . April 17 , 2008 Vijay , You are in zone 5 which will make it difficult to germinate valor - papadi seeds at this time . It is good to wait till after Mother ' s day . Plant seeds directly in garden soil in last week of May . Seeds will germinate in 10 to 15 days . April 17 , 2008 rainbow 2007 , I have planted about 30 seeds and only one came up . Half the seeds were soaked in water for two days as I mentioned earlier . May be I should soak it only for 24 hours or try soaking it in hydrogen peroxide to see if it will help . I planted bitter melon seeds in Jiffy pellets and none has sprouted yet ; come to think of it I do n ' t think I have had much success with Jiffy media in previous years . Chaman , Last year I planted valor seeds directly in the ground near Memorial Day weekend , they came up and grew wild taking over my tomatoes , turia , eggplants etc . . . but there were no valor beans . So I thought I will get a jump start by starting seeds indoor . April 18 , 2008 One of the reasons ( perhaps only reason ) is that there must be too much N ( nitrogen ) in the soil that will induce only vegetative growth for valor beans . I had similar problem few years ago . Valor is a viney plant , needs more space to grow . It is better to provide enough space for this plant . If the valor seeds you have are short day kind it will not help starting seeds earlier . Too much Nitrogen can be stabilised by planting corn at the place valor was planted a year earlier . Corn is a good consumer of Nitrogen . Valor adds nitrogen to the soil . All the legumes add Nitrogen to the soil .

However , bitter melonÂstill waiting to germinate . Thanks April 27 , 2008 I planted my moringa seeds about two weeks ago and so far none has sprouted .

April 27 , 2008 aaaaaa_gardner and Vijay , It is too early at this time to plant moringa and bitter melon seeds in zone 6 and 5 . Sow these seeds after Mother ' s day week end . They can be sprouted in door at about 80 deg . F . After five weeks one of my moringa seeds has sprouted . Should I transfer it to its permanent pot ( 10 " - 12 " ) or a 6 " pot and then transfer it to a larger pot later on . May 20 , 2008 Transfer it in 6 " pot now and in a larger pot next year . It will develop good size of root by that time . Keep it in a warmer place in the house during winter . Water very conservatively . Too much water will kill the plant in absence of hot weather like temperatures . May 20 , 2008 paulgm hello , you have almost a pharmacy in your garden with that tree .

Cannas are the newest plants that I ' m studying . Mainly , I sick with aquatic plants but these are versatile . I plan on digging a few if I ca n ' t sprout them from seeds . These cannas are producing a pod at the base of the flower . Would it do that if it did n ' t produce seeds ?

June 3 , 2005 theinfamousj This is my first canna question , but I ' ve got lots of experience watching them grow and bloom . Where I grew up , the strip of dirt between the house and the driveway had a canna forest ( salmon small blooms ) . We ' d always cut some of them down for mulch and I used to pick the seeds and use them in games of marbles . Well , my father still has that house and when I was home last I noticed mature seedpods on the plant . I plucked a bunch ( got well over 2000 seeds ) and brought them home mostly for a trip down memory lane , but then I started to think about germination . I used cat claw clippers to nick the seeds and soaked them for three days in what started out as hot , hot tap water but then cooled off ( ie I did n ' t change the water every 5 minutes to keep it super hot ) . The seeds started to swell . Then I potted them up in soil . It has been 10 days and I ' m seeing nothing emerging . I know it may be too early to start worrying , but I was wondering when was a good ballpark time to consider to Also , should I have kept the water hot , hot all the time ? And should I have waited for an " obscene looking white thing " to come out of the hole ? October 2 , 2005 skygardening Nick the seed ( easiest way is with pet nail clippers ) until you see a little white . Put them in a plastic , see through , bottle with a teaspoon of water ( say for 6 seeds ) . Put the lid on tight . They should sprout in 3 days . Then plant in a 4 " pot and keep moist . They should break ground in about 10 days or less . Remember that a seedling does not take on the name of it ' s pod parent . And that when you are trading , October 9 , 2005 desertrubble Hi Scott , nice to see you over here . I ' m not sure your question was answered so here goes - canna pods are not like arrowheads - the seeds would be inside . The thing is some canna will not actually produce a seed but will go ahead and produce perfectly useless pods - which is what you had that crumbled . If you have a canna that does not produce seed - it just wo n ' t . I do have one that produces the occasional seed , but about 95 % of it ' Hope that helps ! Lynn October 9 , 2005 Klodec Funny though , we always hear of canna rhizomes , rhizomes division , to propagate Cannas . I do n ' t understand why the seedling method is not as popular as it should . For me , all I can tell is that the EASIER way to propagate a Canna is simply by seed ! To answer clearly to the main question of this topic , Check this out : The very First bloom was only a little less than 3 months after the seed sprout . Now I have many new shoots , 6 to 7 of which are continuously blooming and producing huge amounts of seeds . . .

I ' ve collected some seeds from a canna , some of the seeds are perfectly round , smooth and hard . I came across some seeds that have divets , sort of like a golf ball all around the seed . Should I assume that these deformed seeds are not viable or do some cannas produce these weird seeds ? BeautifulDelight Thanks for the answer : ) so does this plant need full sun all summer long ?

Comments ( 20 ) canna2grow Canna emergence in the spring is primarily predicated on soil temperature and to some degree bud swelling on the rhizome . I often suggest that cannas can be planted about or after the oak trees begin to leaf . There really are no hard and fast rules ; remember that many folks living in the more temperate regions leave cannas in the ground for the winter . Spring planted rhizomes can easily take 3 to 5 weeks to emerge . Wish you had indicated where you live : if the ( 5 ) is your zone you may have planted a bit early for the way this spring season has NOT progressed . Planting in cold wet soil is definitely not the best and can cause the rhizomes to rot or at least delay normal growth . Hopefully you planted in a well - drained area . Chances are your cannas will be somewhat delayed until we have a week or two of warmer weather . Kent 1 Like Save May 6 , 2013 Marinewifenc The cannas I bought on ebay sprouted in about a week , some in pots some in the ground , some took two weeks . I ' m in zone 8 though .

It was a little cold and has been rainy so I hope my bulbs did n ' t rot . I planted 14 . If I can get half of them to sprout I ' d be happy with that as I could break them up at the end of the season and increase my amount of cannas that way . I ' m hoping that the next couple weeks of 70 + days here in missouri will warm those babies up ! May 7 , 2013 mantis__oh I would start in pots and fertilize heavily once they sprout . Then put out in early June . Like May 12 , 2013 poaky1 Do n ' t feel bad I planted some 3 weeks ago and they are not showing any sides of awakening yet . 2 Likes May 25 , 2013 CindyZ4b I planted 4 orange cannas a month ago . All in full sun . None have come up yet . Z4 . May 13 , 2017 poaky1 I have some sprouting that were in those dried bags of peat moss . I guess at least I knew they were alive when I bought them , they were sprouting in the store in the bag . Hopefully you can get them already potted and alive at a HD or Lowes . May 14 , 2017 CindyZ4b Still no cannas . Like June 3 , 2017 Sorry to hear that , mine finally came up . You know when you buy more they ' ll come up . June 3 , 2017 All my oriental lilies and other bulbs i planted are up . No canas . June 6 , 2017 I have a tiny runt of a Elephant ear plant that I ' m still waiting for to come up , but it was a bonus 1 in a package with the 1 I paid for , so I ca n ' t complain if it never comes up . June 7 , 2017 I kept one alive all winter . Then i set it outside too early i guess . It died . June 9 , 2017 last modified : June 9 , 2017 Sorry to hear that . I have the Pink China one . It says zone 6 hardy without having to lift in fall . I hope it really is zone 6 hardy . artemis_ma Zone 5 here , mine took about 4 - 5 weeks this year to pop their heads up . Last year they did splendidly . I do pull them up every year , and due to needing the final staining on the exterior of the house , I did n ' t get them in until late . Photo from last Tuesday or Wednesday : ( The Saturday before . . . there ' d been Nothing ! ) 2 Likes June 26 , 2017 Mine didnt come up . Planted to early ? My oriental lilies all came up ! June 26 , 2017 One of my Cannas came up , then died down . I think maybe too much shade , the rest are fine . I planted it before my Maple was in full leaf , so that ' s why I guess . June 29 , 2017 Steven Roussos Hi ! I am in Northern KY , Zone 6a . I have some Canna bulbs that I forgot to plant earlier . It is not July 24 . First Frost here is typically Oct 18 . Any chance I can plant them and expect blooms this year ? If not , is it beneficial to plant them , let them grow as much as they can and increase tuber mass etc . , let the frost kill them back then lift and dry them until next spring ? Or is is better to just wait ? Thank you . July 24 , 2018 FrozeBudd_z4 Steven , I ' d say it ' s better to plant them now rather than waiting until next year , as they could perish if not given a chance to grow and replenish themselves . I do n ' t know whether you ' ll get blooms this year , but at least you have a better chance of keeping the roots alive . Maybe , you could pot them up and protect them from frost for as long as possible late into the autumn , this way you ' ll be more likely to get flowers and also July 25 , 2018 last modified : July 25 , 2018 Steven and Frozebud , Steven would need to maybe plant those Canna bulbs in a big pot now , so that in the event of first frost the pot could be brought inside , or maybe if those bulbs need more than just the first frost , IF they need a harder frost to go dormant , after the neccessary frost or big FREEZE , after that happens then the pot with these bulbs can be brought inside . I must say that I ' ve kept Calla Lillies bulbs hardy in ground over winter with them being sown deep July 29 , 2018 FrozeBudd_z4 Poaky , yes , I agree regarding the cannas being potted up and later stored inside over winter , I think such would give them the best chance of rebuilding their energy . Cannas are generally stated as being hardy to zone 7 ( ? ) , so mulching deeeply in zone 6 could very well work , unless one receives a very hard arctic blast without the benefit of an insulating blanket of snow . Heck , I ' m even gonna try tucking a few rhizomes right up against the foundation of my home , now that ' July 29 , 2018 Sign Up to Comment | [
