Will Get Any Work Done
If your main occupation is somehow related to the woodworking then it is highly probable for a planer to be one of the most frequently used machines in your place. The DEWALT DW735X power planer in its turn is considered one of the leading devices in this field. With this planer, you can easily dub a workpiece to get a wood board of the required thickness. This tool will fit for the implementation of practically any project that implies wood planing, including the making of joinery or furniture. As the practice shows this DeWalt planer is capable of effectively removing both thin and thick wood layers of softwood and hardwood.
Three Plane Knives for Excellent Machining
Right off the bat, we would like to point to such an advantage of this DeWalt planer as a cutting head with three knives, which not only ensure a high-quality machining but also prolong the cutter unit's service life for up to 30 %. This electric planer comes with a two-speed gearbox, which you can switch between during the operation. When running at the second speed the planer performs a primary machining of a workpiece. When you switch to the first speed the DW 735X surface planer starts to operate at a slower machining speed with the plank fed out of the machine having a perfectly smooth surface. The higher operation speed of the DW 735X model enables it to cut even hardwood owing to the high speed of its feeding rollers. The manufacturer has equipped this woodworking planer with some minor additions, which will come in handy for the users of the planer. As opposed to DEWALT DW735 model the DEWALT DW735X's supply package includes two folding tables for a more convenient feeding of a workpiece. This convenience also improves feeding and thus machining precision. The supply package for the DW735X model also includes a set of spare cutting knives, which are easily replaceable as reported by users.
Some Info on DeWalt

Makita 2012-NB
Powerful and Compact
This Makita planer is a powerful yet quite compact machine. Utilizing a powerful electric motor with a very good 15 А current capacity the 2012NB thickness planer is capable of dubbing any wood species regardless of its hardness. The use of such powerful motor results in uniform and smooth surface of a workpiece. Many users have already seen for themselves the convenience of 2012NB use, which enables practically any member of your family to assist you when working with the planer if needed. The small size of the Makita 12-inch planer allows carrying it around without any trouble. The machine weight is only 61.9 lbs. Therefore if you are considering a reliable woodworking tool choosing the Makita 2012NB will be a rational and smart decision.
Silent Assistant
The Makita 2012NB surface planer was designed in a very intelligent way, which greatly facilitates its operation. With the built-in imperial and inch scales, you can effortlessly set the required machining depth. We would like to draw your attention to the planer knives and their operation. They adhere to the shaft with a pressing bar. To access the knives of the cutting head, for example, for their replacement you just need to remove a corresponding protective cover having preliminary unscrewed two screws, which is very simple. The major advantage of the carbide knives supplied is that they have two cutting edges. This means that after one knife edge wears off you can flip it and use the other edge. The 2012NB model also has an indicator that indicates its readiness for the operation. One has to agree that there are very few things that are worse than a skewed machined wood plank, especially when it comes to expensive timber species. To avoid an incorrect or defective wood machining on this planer, the Makita furnished the machine with the Interna–Lok locking mechanism. This mechanism is intended for the planer head to securely hold a workpiece during the operation. Another important advantage this thickness planer offers is the low operation noise. For this model, the noise level is capped at 83 dB.

What Is a Planer?
When you face a problem of planing many wood boards after a short time it becomes obvious that this task is very labor-intensive and time-consuming if performed manually. In this case, a wood planer will be of much help. A planer is a woodworking device intended for planing solid wood into the boards of the desired thickness.
One of the main benefits of using a planer is saving of labor as such device has a high capacity and enables you to process a large amount of raw material without going through the effort of doing it all by yourself. Another advantage is the safety of operation as the probability of injury is quite low for power planers. And the last but not the least is the surface quality as the electric planers enable you to obtain the boards of very precise dimensions and fine finish. Further on the obtained boards can be used for laying the floors, furniture making, interior finishing, etc.
The machine has the following principle of operation: a workpiece is fed along a horizontal table on rollers and a rotating cutter head with the knives whittles the workpiece to shape it into a board.
You can also learn about gas chainsaws which will come in handy when sawing the wood before its machining.
What Features to Compare
Before buying such a valuable assistant as a planer, one should puzzle out its functionality and clarify the most important features.
The planning machines are divided into several Types, which are designed for performing different types of wood machining:
- Surface planer (jointer). This type of planer performs a primary machining of a workpiece. To obtain a fine and even plank surface and edges you have to machine a workpiece in such a way as to get a plain (reference) face, along which the whole surface is going to be dubbed or joined with another piece of lumber. Making an even face is an intended purpose of a surface planer.
- Thickness planer (thicknesser). This planer type serves for cutting pieces of wood to the necessary thickness. The wood is pulled in on one end of the planer (infeed) and passes the cutter, led by the rollers. This results in cutting this piece of wood to the desired thickness with perfectly parallel upper and lower faces.
Secondly, you need to pay attention to those planer parameters, which influence the Performance:
- Workpiece capacity. This set of parameters governs the maximum width and height of a workpiece, which can be machined with a planer. Therefore the higher these values are the bigger workpiece can be machined with a planer.
- Depth-of-cut. This parameter defines the thickness of a wood layer, which a planer removes in a single pass. The bigger the cutting depth is, the fewer times you'd need to run a workpiece on the machine to remove a thick layer of wood.
- Electric motor capacity. This parameter directly determines a planer working capacity. More powerful electric planers are capable of dubbing durable wood. With that being said, when you use a machine equipped with a motor not powerful enough you might need to run a workpiece several times on a planer to achieve the desired board thickness.
- Rollers rotation speed. In general, the higher the rotation speed of planer rollers is, the smoother and more even the machined surface would be.
- Number of rollers. The number of planer rollers depends on the planer design and its intended purpose. Portable planers, for example, are intended for household purposes and scales of jobs and are limited to having one roller only, while semi-pro planer models may be equipped with two or three rollers, which enable the machining of a workpiece from both sides simultaneously.
In addition to the abovementioned parameters, woodworking planers just as other machines have their Distinguishing Features that make machinery operation more convenient and thus are worthy of your attention. These features include the devices for blowing wood dust and chips out of a workpiece, dedicated systems of dust and trash collection during operation, various LEDs that indicate the statuses and operation modes. Some wood planers support two operating speeds, which you are free to switch between during work. Some planer tables may have a unique coverage to achieve the highest possible smoothness of a workpiece feeding, etc.

Stewardship: the careful and responsible management of something entrusted to one's care.
No one understands and appreciates the meaning behind stewardship of the land more than those in Agriculture. With 60+ years of agricultural experience, the Scimetrics Team knows the goals and continues to provide effective baits that help protect crops, offer a reduced risk to non-target species and does not take a large bite out of the already too slim, bottom line. We have put together this page to assist the Users of Prairie Dog Baits to do so effectively, efficiently and with minimal impact to the environment.
So let's Begin…
User Responsibilities
- READ THE LABEL !!! The label is the law. It is the responsibility of the applicator to read and follow all label directions. Failure to do so is a violation of federal law
- Keep proper records for possible inspection by state and/or federal agencies, including copies of Bulletins, even if there are no restrictions for the application area
Restricted Use Pesticide (RUP) Classification
- For retail sale to and use only by Certified Applicators or persons under their direct supervision and only for those uses covered by the Certified Applicator's Certificate
- Restricted use pesticide statement is clearly marked on the product label
- Requires a valid commercial or private applicator license to purchase the product
- Can only be applied by a certified applicator or persons under the direct supervision of a certified applicator, and only for those uses (pests) covered by the Certified Applicator's license
- For prairie dog bait, your license must cover Outdoor Vertebrate Pest Control
- The United States Environmental Protection Agency classifies products as RUP for various reasons including, but not limited to:
- required level of expertise for bait application
- toxicity of bait
- hazards to non-target organisms
- threatened and endangered species concerns
- ground water contamination concerns
Endangered Species Act (ESA) Federal law.
- The purpose of this act is to provide a means whereby the ecosystems upon which endangered species and threatened species depend may be conserved (ESA, Section 2b).
- Administered by USFWS and NOAA. Website: www.fws.gov and www.noaa.gov
Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) Federal law.
- regulates manufacturing, distribution, sale, and use of pesticides
- ensures that using the pesticide according to the product label will not cause unreasonable adverse effects to humans, non-target species, and/or the environment
- dictates that the product label, including all materials referenced on it (e.g. endangered species protection bulletins, www.epa.gov/espp), is the LAW
- Administered by U.S. EPA (Website: www.epa.gov). The EPA is required to abide by ESA regulations
- The ESA directs all Federal agencies to work to conserve endangered and threatened species
- Section 7(a)(2) of ESA requires federal agencies ("action agencies") in consultation with the Services to ensure that any action they authorize, fund, or carry out is not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of a listed species or result in the destruction or adverse modification of habitat designated by the Services as critical.
- Under FIFRA, the "action" subject to the consultation provisions of the ESA is the federal registration of a pesticide
Pesticide Misuse is illegal…
- It is a violation of federal law to use a pesticide product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
- If label directions are followed and there is "take" (i.e. an animal is injured or killed) of a listed species
- NO violation of FIFRA
- NO violation of ESA
- If label directions are NOT followed and there is "take" of a listed species
- VIOLATION of FIFRA
- VIOLATION of ESA

- Baiting outside the baiting season
- Not performing line-transect carcass searches
- Failure to report dead or morbid non-target wildlife to the National pesticide Information Center
- Failure to dispose of dead or moribund black-tailed prairie dogs
Primary, Secondary & Tertiary Poisoning
Primary Poisoning:
- Direct consumption of bait
- Example: Prairie dog bait was spilled on the ground and not cleaned up. A songbird (non-target animal) eats the spilled bait and gets sick or dies
Secondary Poisoning:
- Consumption of poisoned carcass by predators or scavengers
- Example: Eagle eats dead or dying BTPD with enough poison residue in tissue to sicken or kill the eagle
Tertiary Poisoning:
- Consumption of a dying or dead animal that was poisoned by secondary poisoning
- Example:
- BTPD eats prairie dog bait, and dies above ground
- Coyote eats poisoned BTPD with enough residual poison in its tissue to kill the coyote
- Eagle eats dead coyote with enough residual poison in its tissue to sicken or kill the eagle
Endangered Species Protection Bulletins Bulletins are part of EPA's Endangered Species Protection Program
- Sets forth geographically specific pesticide use limitations for the protection of listed species and their designated critical habitat
- Bulletins are an extension of the product label. Non-compliance is a violation of federal law
- Before applying bait, you MUST obtain the proper bulletin for the application area and month in which you are applying the product
- It is mandatory to access bulletins no more than 6 months prior to application
- Bulletins can be obtained via
- Website: http://www.epa.gov/espp/bulletins.htm

These areas are not BFF reintroduction sites, but the tribes do not want anticoagulant rodenticide products used within the boundaries of the reservation (as specified on federal label).
- NOTE: Other tribes may have specific ordinances against the use of anticoagulant bait, for example Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, SD.
- It is recommended to check specific ordinances before applying bait within Indian Reservations
Pre-application Assessment
- Check Bulletins Live! for your specific application area and month in which you intend to apply prairie dog bait to determine if there are any geographical pesticide use limitations
- Access bulletins no more than 6 months prior to application to make sure you will have up to date information
- KAPUT-D PRAIRIE DOG BAIT, KAPUT COMBO PRAIRIE DOG BAIT, and ROZOL PRAIRIE DOG BAIT are all Restricted Use Pesticides, therefore you must have a valid applicator's license
- Make sure you have valid applicator's license for the state you are baiting in
Site Inspection
- Identify active black-tailed prairie dog burrows
- Indications of active BTPD burrows are
- Openings with freshly turned earth that are free of leaves, seeds, spider webs and other debris
- BTPD feces and tracks
- Treat only active black-tailed prairie dog burrows
Application Directions
- By hand scoop
- By mechanical placement machine with calibration capability
- Apply ¼ cup of bait at least 6 inches down active prairie dog burrows
- Make sure no bait is left on the soil surface
- Applicator must retrieve and dispose of any bait spilled above ground or placed less than 6 inches down burrow entrance
Carcass Search and Removal
- Applicator must return to site within 4 days after bait application, and at 1 to 2 day intervals thereafter for AT LEAST TWO WEEKS to collect and properly dispose of any bait or dead or dying BTPD's found on surface
- Collect and dispose of dead or dying BTPD's and search for non-target animals for at least two weeks, BUT LONGER if carcasses are still being found at that time
- Carcass collection should occur by late afternoon to reduce the chances of nocturnal animals finding carcasses of dead or dying animals
- Although not required by the label, the following actions will help minimize risks of secondary poisoning to predators and scavengers
- longer duration of the search (beyond two weeks)
- more frequent carcass searches and collections, e.g. twice a day, once early in the morning to reduce exposure to daytime sight predators such as hawks and eagles, and another late in the afternoon to reduce the potential of nocturnal animals finding carcasses
Carcass Search Requirement
- Must be performed using a line-transect method that completely covers the baited area
- Transect center lines must not be more than 200 feet apart
- Transect center lines may be traveled on foot or by vehicle at a rate of 4 mph or less
- Start by dividing the area into straight, parallel lines to define width and ends of the area
- Use natural landmarks, stakes, GPS or other tools to easily identify the line and return to it for future carcass searches
- Set transect lines at a distance which will allow for unobstructed view, which may mean using natural breaks and creating a new transect line at a fence, hedge row, ditch, crests, etc.
- To evaluate proper distance, put a small brown object (e.g. glove) on the ground and walk away to a distance where the object still can be easily seen. Use that as a benchmark for your spacing. Remember: Max. spacing is 200 ft., but may have to be less depending on density of vegetation and/or other geographic properties
- Consider time of day and position of sun when establishing transect layout for maximum visibility (e.g. looking into the sun when searching decreases visibility)
- When a dead/sick animal or bait is detected, address it immediately before continuing to traverse the line and visually scan as before
- Bait: remove from surface area
- Non-targets (including live BFF): report it
- Targets: collect it for proper disposal
Reporting Requirements
- Report any apparently sick, dying or dead non-target animals, including federally listed species, that are found during carcass searches
- Report any sightings of live or dead black-footed ferrets to the Black-footed Ferret Coordinator. (Coordinator has to be contacted if black-footed ferrets are found any time, i.e. before, during, or after application or during carcass searches)
Carcass Burial
- Bury carcasses on site in holes at least 18 inches deep or in inactive burrow to avoid non-target animal scavenging
- Burial includes covering and packing the hole or burrow with soil
- If burial is not practical (frozen ground), check with your state or local authorities regarding other disposal methods allowed
- Although not required by the label, the most effective method for disposing of carcasses and avoiding risk of secondary poisoning is to dispose of carcasses by state-approved methods that ensure inaccessibility of carcasses to scavengers and predators
Re-application of Prairie Dog Bait
- A second application of bait may be made if black-tailed prairie dog activity persists several weeks or months after the first application of bait
- NOTE: The same anticoagulant bait has to be used as in the first application
- Follow all the Use Restrictions, Site Assessment, Application and Follow-Up Directions as with the first application
Summary of Key Points
- Follow all label directions
- Consult EPA's Bulletins Live! website
- Use only one anticoagulant prairie dog bait per treatment area (diphacinone or chlorophacinone)
- Use transect-line method for carcass searches
- Conduct carcass searches for at least two weeks or longer if carcasses are still being found at this time
- Reporting Responsibilities
- Dead/dying non-target animals
- Injured or sick Federally listed species
- Live or dead black-footed ferrets

If Colorado voters this November approve a $1 billion income tax increase to fund schools, they will break a string of defeats for similar measures stretching back decades.
Since the early 1990s, voters have approved only two ballot measures that affected education revenues – and neither of those included a general tax increase. Over the same period, voters defeated six K-12 or higher education funding measures.
And voters haven't been kind to other kinds of tax increases, changes in debt limits or tweaks to existing financial provisions of the state constitution. Seven of those measures have been defeated, and only three have passed. (Article continues below timeline.)
See full history of ballot measures.
"It's a challenging list," said Wade Buchanan, president of the progressive-leaning Bell Policy Center and a long-time observer of state fiscal issues and battles.
To set some context for this fall's expected campaign to pass a tax increase for K-12, Education News Colorado reviewed the history of ballot measures back to the early 1990s and interviewed a variety of political observers and operatives.
The tax increase is needed to pay for Senate Bill 13-213, the recent law that would create a new method for distributing school funding. No specific measure has yet been proposed for this November. The civic group Colorado Forum has filed proposals but has yet to decide which one it will attempt to get on the ballot through a petition campaign. Various business interests are still debating which of the 16 tax plans to support.
Most of those interviewed basically agreed with veteran campaign consultant Katy Atkinson, who said, "I think it's going to be very difficult" to pass a measure. But communications consultant Eric Sondermann added, "You can pass these things. It's not impossible."
Patterns in the past
"We have kind of a tough record here when it comes to pitching tax measures statewide," noted Charlie Brown, director of the Colorado Futures Center at Colorado State University. "Nothing of a huge magnitude has passed."
Political observers cite a variety of reasons why some measures passed and others didn't.
"Most of them didn't attract the kind of money you need" for the campaign, said Buchanan.
Buchanan and others said that lack of campaign support may have doomed 2011's Proposition 103, which would have added $536 million in temporary income and sales tax increase for education, and Amendment 59 in 2008, which would have diverted some tax refunds into education.
Mike Melanson of OnSight Public Affairs, who has been advising Colorado Forum, agreed. The 103 campaign didn't have enough funding "to the point that they saturated the market," he said. (Melanson also ran one of the few successful tax-increase campaigns, Initiative 35 in 2004.)
Some measures that passed "flew under the radar" and were approved without much opposition because public attention was focused on higher-profile measures in those election years, Sondermann said. Amendment 50, which passed in 2008 and expanded limited stakes gambling with some revenues going to community colleges, is an example.
Statewide ballot proposals have a handicap that often doesn't affect local tax proposals, such as school bond issues and tax overrides, which voters have a history of supporting.
"The more tangible the issue, the better chance you have of engaging voters," Buchanan said. "When you go to the state level you get into abstractions. … It's harder for people to know what you're talking about."
Charlie Brown and Sondermann agreed with that analysis. "Coloradans want to know what they're buying," said Sondermann.
Fred Brown, retired political columnist and reporter, cited metro-area voter support of stadium taxes, the cultural facilities levy and FasTracks as examples. "People knew exactly what they were getting for their money," he said.
Is Ref C relevant?
When people talk about the proposed K-12 ballot measure, the conversation often turns to Referendum C.
Referendum C allowed the state to retain and spend for five years revenue that would have otherwise had to have been refunded to citizens under terms of the Taxpayer's Bill of Rights, the 1992 constitutional amendment that requires voter approval of tax increases and sets ceilings on revenue collections. Ref C, as it's commonly called, didn't raise tax rates. It passed with a 52 percent yes vote.
The measure, placed on the ballot by the legislature, was supported by Republican Gov. Bill Owens and was backed by a bipartisan coalition that included large segments of the business community. It was also promoted by a well-funded campaign. Backers of more education spending often say their plan needs the same "broad coalition" that supported Ref C.
Buchanan notes that Ref C provided about as much revenue as the education ballot measure proposes. But, he said, "There's a big difference" between letting state government keep revenue and "telling people yes, this does raise your taxes."
Atkinson agreed, noting the Ref C ballot language began with the words "Without raising taxes …"
She also said Owens' support "gave Republicans permission to support" Ref C, and that there's no high-profile GOP support this year for an education tax increase. Fred Brown noted that in 2005 many other Republicans opposed the measure.
Veteran political strategist Mike Dino said, "I do think Colorado voters have been accustomed to lower taxes for a long time" and that "we're not in as good an economic time as with Ref C."
Ref C passed with only about 52 percent of the vote, and a companion debt proposal failed.
Prospects for the campaign
"I'm sure they're aware this is a tough uphill battle," Charlie Brown said of the prospective campaign.
Many observers think campaign funding will be a key factor.
The 1992 election saw the passage of the Taxpayer's Bill of Rights, which in many ways has set the course for subsequent ballot measures. That year also saw the defeat of an education-funding-and-reform plan backed by then-Gov. Roy Romer.
Fred Brown, retired Denver Post political columnist and reporter, blames it all on maverick third-party presidential candidate Ross Perot."I think 1992 was a bizarre year because there was such a huge turnout, and it was driven by Ross Perot's candidacy, " Brown said. "Anti-government types were energized by the Perot candidacy."
Brown says that aided the passage of TABOR and Amendment 2 (an anti-gay measure later thrown out by the U.S. Supreme Court) and the defeat the schools proposal. "Neither one of those measures would have passed, and maybe the school tax would have passed" without Perot voters, Brown speculated.
"It's all about how much money you have," said Buchanan.
Atkinson said the minimum for a campaign is probably $4 million. Sondermann cited $7 million as a reasonable amount, "but it's probably closer to $10 million."
Melanson wouldn't venture a guess on an amount, but he did say, "You have to be funded to the degree that people understand what's in the measure."
Observers are of different minds about how voters will swing this year. Turnout usually is lower in off-year elections, and Sondermann noted that voters tend to skew older in those years. (The only measure currently set for the November ballot is a legislature proposal to set taxes on recreational marijuana.)
Others think that pro-education voters will turn out this year, motivated by past district budget cuts and the prospect of future K-12 revenue increases. Supporters are counting on that happening.
"The mood is certainly pro-education," said Fred Brown.
"I think the political climate has changed," he continued. "Colorado is more liberal now than it was 20 years ago, so that might make a difference. … But Colorado is more of an independent-minded state. It's hard to predict what voters will do."
Melanson sounded a similar note, saying, "The Colorado electorate is a younger electorate now, even in odd-year elections. … The conservative side of the scale was smaller in 2011 than it was in 2005."
He said his firm started doing research shortly after Proposition 103 was defeated in 2011. "The outlook of Colorado was considerably more pessimistic at that time than it is now."
But Atkinson noted that some segments of the Democratic Party base don't necessarily support tax increases.
Gov. John Hickenlooper invariably comes up when people talk about the prospective ballot measure.
The governor's involvement "will be important to the effort," Dino said. "We do have a governor who, as mayor, had a lot of good results from putting things on the ballot that had failed in Denver before." But, Dino added, "There hasn't necessarily been a commitment by the governor as to the amount of time he'll spend."
Hickenlooper has said he'll campaign for the eventual K-12 measure. But as recently as Wednesday he said he remains "ambivalent" about which variation of the proposed tax increase he prefers.
Atkinson said the governor won't be the determining factor. "He's not enough to push it over the top."
Summing up, schools advocate Lisa Weil said, "I think there's no question that this is a difficult task," adding, "The wind is more at our back than it has been for a long time." Weil is policy director for Great Education Colorado, an advocacy group that supports increased school funding.
Is there enough time?
Some education advocates have been nervous about the fact that a final version of the ballot measure hasn't been selected.
But most observers feel the campaign will be able to gather the petition signatures needed by the Aug. 5 deadline – particularly if it uses paid petition circulators.
And there's time to get the campaign message out – "with money," Sondermann said.
"I think they have time with the message side of it," Atkinson agreed.
Roll call of ballot measures
Key: Initiative refers to a measure placed on the ballot by citizen petition. A Referendum is a measure proposed by the legislature. Both types can change the constitution or state law.
Crucial measures
Six measures passed over the last three decades have shaped the landscape for government finance.
1982 – Referendum 1: The so-called Gallagher Amendment set new rules and ratios for assessment of property, has had the effect of reducing revenue from residential property taxes and, in combination with TABOR, shifted the bulk of school funding to the state.
1992 – Initiative 6: Known as the Taxpayer's Bill of Rights (TABOR), this constitutional amendment requires voter approval of tax increases, sets limits on annual government revenue increases and requires refunds of surplus revenues. At the local level, voters in many schools districts have opted out of some TABOR provisions, as the amendment allows, but voter approval of tax increases still is required.
Initiative 8: The Great Outdoors Colorado (GoCo) amendment reserves most state lottery revenues for wildlife conservation and open space, locking up revenues that are used for education or general purposes in many other states.
1994 – Referendum A: This constitutional amendment restricted future ballot measures to a "single subject." Proposed partly in response to TABOR, the measure actually has made it harder for TABOR critics to change that amendment and also had spawned legal quibbling over many proposals.
2000 – Initiative 23: Universally known as Amendment 23, this requires base K-12 spending to increase by enrollment and inflation every year. (For the first 10 years it also required annual 1 percent increases on top of that.) A23 is as beloved by most education advocates as TABOR is by many conservatives.
2005 – Referendum C: This measure allowed the state to retain and spend TABOR surpluses for five years. It also changed some TABOR provisions that drove state revenue limits down in recessionary periods but didn't allow them to recover when the economy improved.
Tax, revenue, spending and debt measures
This is a list of other revenue and spending-related measures on the ballot in recent decades, including both education-related and non-education proposals. Measures in green passed; measures in red were defeated. Vote percentages are rounded off.
Proposition 103 – $536 million temporary income and sales tax increase for education. Lost 36 percent to 63 percent
Amendment 50 – Expansion of limited stakes gambling with some revenues going to community colleges. Passed 58-41
Amendment 51 – $186 million sales tax increase to fund services for the developmentally disabled. Lost 37-62
Amendment 58 – $321 million increase in severance taxes, part of which would have been used for college scholarships. Lost 41-58
Amendment 59 – Would have diverted TABOR refunds to K-12 education. Lost 45-54
Referendum C –Passed 52-47
Referendum D – Would have allowed the state to issue debt for school, college and highway construction. Lost 49-50
Initiative 35 – A $175 million tobacco tax increase to fund children's and other health programs. Passed 61-38
Initiative 32 – Proposed changes in the Gallagher Amendment. Lost 22-77
Initiative 26 – Would have allowed use of $50 million in excess state revenues for planning a monorail system along I-70. Lost 34-65

Two weeks later, some of Calgary's neighbourhoods have begun the process of cleaning their homes and mending their communities, but in many areas in and around the region the need for help persists, and will continue to for some time. Please, lend a hand.
Supporting women and children in crisis, both the Calary Women's Emergency Shelter and the YWCA of Calgary's emergency shelter, supportive housing and head offices were within the evacuation zones. Says the CWES, "our clients have experienced two simultaneous evacuations: first, they fled violence and now flooding." Relief is needed to effectively support the day-to-day needs of victims of family violence.
Calgary Women's Emergency Shelter
Many organizations are providing immediate flood relief to Albertans, helping to ensure the day-to-day needs are being met, however there will be a long road to recovery for many neighbourhoods and communities. These are organizations working to help the short and long-term needs of the community.
In addition to damage in Calgary, Canmore, High River and elsewhere in the region, the Siksika Nation and Stoney Nakoda Nation have suffered considerable damage.
Calgary's small, local businesses need our support to recover. Dry Goods and YYC is Open are working to help Calgarians rediscover small businesses impacted by the flooding. Buy local, now, more than ever.

Now that Vegas has mostly recovered from our visit during Kaseya Connect 2013, we'd like to share with you a little bit from one of this year's best sessions: "Customer Perspectives on Leveraging the Power of 6.3."
The best information about the value of the lastest version of Kaseya, comes from service provider customers who have already deployed it and can share the ways that it has helped them become better at proactively managing IT assets by applying a consistent process that uses the discover, manage, automate, validate methodology.
Although a recording of the full session is available below, I would like to share a few of the key points about the value of Kaseya 6.3 made by each of the participants.
"With the new reporting engine you are definitely able to pull a lot more out of the system than you could before. Instead of just the pre-canned reports or aggregate tables, you can really get in the database and pull nice, pretty charts, graphs, reports…We have been leveraging badges pretty heavily…what a badge does is you can give special instructions on an agent. It's a pretty handy little feature to be able to leave a special instruction for my techs." – Scott Brown, President of TimbuckTech, Inc. of Peoria, IL
"I'm just crazy about the agent procedure editor…copy and paste, multitab editing is great, undo, go to line…it feels like a real scripting language… I have been leveraging it with policy management module to automate remediation and to eliminate superfluous tickets." -Brian Dagan, Senior Systems Support Engineer from CWPS of Washington, DC
"Machine search. I can't tell you how much machine search has meant to us. The ability to stay on what you're doing without losing where you are. There is discussion that machine search may not be just machine search but that the future is ability to search tickets, knowledge base." -Brian Greene, President of Adaptive Technology Group, LLC of Seattle, WA
"We manage 1500 endpoints and about ten percent of them are MAC OS. We have been using Kaseya for five years. As of 6.3, KLC remote control is using the native X11 VNC server on MAC OS 10, so that significantly improved our ability to remote control macs, and the connection is much more consistent." -Kerry DeVilbiss, Tools Manager for Anchor Point IT Solutions in Santa Barbara, CA

Windows 7 Puts its Finger on Enhanced Biometric Support
Ive always found biometrics to be an interesting aspect to technology. And I was excited to discover that Windows 7 offers changes to the way Windows handles biometrics to enable better experiences. Windows 7 introduces the Windows Biometric Framework which makes integration easier and more consistent to help deliver enhanced reliability, compatibility and usability of fingerprint-based solutions. The Windows Biometric Framework also makes it easier for developers to include biometrics in their applications by providing a common API that can be added independently with each biometric fingerprint solution. For a more in-depth look at the Windows Biometric Framework check out this whitepaper from Windows Hardware Developer Central.
This week at CES 2009, we have several key partners announcing support for the Windows Biometric Framework in Windows 7.
With tens of millions of notebooks in the market with UPEK fingerprint sensors, UPEK has worked closely with us on the development of the Windows Biometric Framework and sees strong value in using applications that support fingerprint biometrics through the Windows Biometric Framework. If your laptop uses a UPEK fingerprint sensor, such as my Lenovo X300, you can download the pre-release Protector Suite software here which utilizes the Windows Biometric Framework in the Windows 7 Beta today. Im currently testing it out myself and its pretty slick! Rob Blau, UPEKs Vice President of Development, talks more about UPEKs support for Windows 7 here in their press release (Word Document).
AuthenTec has also worked closely with us on the development of the Windows Biometric Framework. They are providing beta test participants with access to software that enable convenient logon for Windows 7-based PCs, thanks to AuthenTec fingerprint sensors integrated with the new Windows Biometric Framework. You can download their 32-bit software here and their 64-bit software here. AuthenTec fingerprint sensors can be seen in business and consumer notebooks from the worlds leading brands from ASUS, Acer, Dell, Fujitsu, Fujitsu Siemens, HP, Lenovo, LG, Samsung and Toshiba. Andy VanDamia, AuthenTecs Director of PC Software, discusses working with us on the Windows Biometric Framework here.
And Validity believes the Windows Biometric Framework facilitates greater adoption of fingerprint security solutions by providing a flexible platform, enabling easy fingerprint sensor integration into PCs.
The early adoption and readiness by these companies has played a vital role in validating the suitability of the Windows Biometric Framework as a platform for fingerprint biometric devices in Windows 7.

Nasa's Robonaut 2 scrubs up for space surgery
It won't panic in an emergency, its hands don't shake after too little sleep, it won't miss a family after months away from base - in fact it doesn't even need to breathe.
Nasa's Robonaut 2 has the makings of the perfect space surgeon.
The humanoid has already been posted to the International Space Station, the only problem is its motor skills are somewhat rudimentary at the moment.
In truth, it can't even walk in zero gravity yet, and perhaps its most impressive physical feat to date has been to catch a floating roll of duct-tape.
But Nasa has high hopes for the new recruit, and techniques being developed by a team on the ground could mean the machine can eventually perform life-saving operations on its team-mates.
"The idea is for him to be the best medic, nurse, and physician," Dr Zsolt Garami of the Houston Methodist Hospital tells the BBC.
"Our plan is to use Robonaut as a telemedicine doctor in remote areas."
As Robonaut's name suggests, it is not alone. There are currently four versions of the android with more in development.
One of them is being trained on Earth to find a pulse in a dummy's neck using ultrasound, then to stick a needle into a vein.
"You want to avoid hitting the carotid artery," Dr Garami says.
The robot has great potential for precise work, he says.
For example, once it can give an injection, it will be able to find the same spot on a human body and use the same angle for the needle again.
He sees the robot eventually being used to perform intricate medical operations like endovascular surgery, where a patient is operated on through their large blood vessels.
Robot cleaner
But in the short-term Robonaut 2 faces a more mundane role as the space station's cleaner
"The robot has to earn its stripes," Robonaut project leader Ron Diftler tells the BBC.
The machine has already been given "very boring tasks" on the International Space Station such as monitoring air flow from vents, he adds.
Robonaut 2 was shipped up to the space station as just a torso, head and arms.
It is still waiting for a pair of legs to arrive on a forthcoming supply mission, but afterwards the robot should be able to begin to clean handrails, wipe down interior surfaces and other basic jobs.
The next stage is for it to learn to walk in, then to go outside the station to do maintenance tasks.
Its legs will have seven joints and cameras in the feet, so it will be able to "see" where it is going.
Eventually, the robot will perform "dull, dirty, and dangerous" jobs in inhospitable places, Mr Diftler says.
Robot control
Robonaut 2 can be remotely controlled by a ground crew member using a virtual-reality face mask and gloves.
The human controller can see what the robot sees, and manoeuvre it using gestures.
Hand and neck position data from the virtual reality kit are transmitted from the Houston command centre into space, and a video feed and data are beamed back.
It can also be controlled through keyboard commands on a laptop.
The robot has five eyes as part of its vision system, and can "see" the same wavelengths of light as a human, plus infrared light.
It has two high-resolution visible light cameras that transmit stereoscopic video to its operators, and two back-up cameras. It's "mouth" is actually an infrared camera to aid its depth perception.
There is no room in its head for a brain, so the aluminium and steel robot "thinks" with its stomach, which is packed with powerful processors.
The fingers have tendons that run into the forearm of the robot in a similar way to the human arm.
When the robot touches an object, tiny sensors on the fingers measure the force the robot is applying, and allow for a soft touch.
Robonaut 2 has not been designed to have super-human strength, but it's strong by human standards - it can lift and move a 20lb (9kg) weight around in Earth's gravity with one arm.
Time lag
One of the main challenges in surgical telemedicine is the time lag between the surgeon's movements and what the robot does, according to telepresence expert Gordon Mair from the University of Strathclyde.
"If you were to make an incision, there would be a certain amount of time before the robot did it," he explains.
This could seriously affect an operation, as even a second's delay could mean the robot makes too deep or shallow an incision.
The signal takes time to transmit over long distances, with the time lag becoming longer as the distances get bigger.
The time lag for signals between Earth and the International Space Station can be up to a couple of seconds, and can cut out for much longer periods, Mr Diftler adds.
For missions to Mars, the lag could be 20 or 30 seconds, making the problem worse.
One possible way around the issue would be for astronauts inside the station to control the robot.
It could offer them an extra pair of hands, for example helping apply pressure on a wound during an operation.
The robot could also be programmed to act autonomously during parts of an operation, with a controller commanding it to go through a sequence of stages.
Robonaut 2 already has some capabilities to act by itself in various tasks.
For example, Mission Control can tell it to pick something up, and it can use its vision system to locate the object, identify it, then reach out and grab it.
The automaton has a long road ahead of it before it can become an autonomous surgeon, but Nasa's big plans may see the robot go from space station toddler to medic on Mars.

"Come thou long expected Jesus..."
Advent is a season of expectation and the definition of expectation is "a strong belief that something will happen or be the case in the future." And so in expectation we must wait. As the prophets waited. For centuries. And the Magi waited. For years. And Mary waited. For months.
But we are not a waiting people. We are a rushing people.
Here in the 21st century, we bow to the god of instant gratification. We are constantly disrupted by segmented ideas at hyper speed. They are delivered to our inboxes, placed in our newsfeeds, enabled by Instagram and propagated by every preferential banner ad.
As our technology has sped, so have our heart rates. Our thoughts, once paced by stories spoken, the rhythm of our steps, the text on a page, are rushed by an onslaught of information with which none can keep pace. The Internet and other technologies allow us to escape the inner gaze while painfully slow moments — peeling carrots, tending to a sick child, waiting for a bus — necessitate reflection.
"A common symptom of modern life is that there is no time for letting the impressions of the soul to sink in." - Thomas Moore, Care for the Soul.
In the absence of technology, in the presence of nature and people, the blessedly mundane, we find a different kind of story. One that has been slowly unfolding for millennia.
It is the story of the coming King.
Here in the holy pause of Advent, may we join together and fervently pray:
Come thou long expected Jesus, born to set thy people free.

Starts at 10:00 AM · Ends at 11:00 AM, MDT (America/Denver)
In Canvas, the word 'groups' is used throughout the platform to mean different things. The "Groupies Series" is designed to clarify these nuances in hopes that you become a 'fan' of all things groups in Canvas.
In this session, we look at Group Discussions.
How are group discussions different from class-wide discussions? What options are available when using graded (or ungraded) group discussions? And how do you navigate among group discussions once students begin posting? This session explores incorporating graded and ungraded group discussions into course design, and we'll consider the kinds of course activities and assignments that are best suited to group discussions.
Participants who attend the session will learn about...
- Setting up graded and ungraded group discussions
- Accessing and grading group discussions
- Considerations and use cases for incorporating group discussions into courses

Mastermind for February 22nd, How NOT To Price a House
File this Mastermind post under the heading "Scratch Your Head Part Two". Last week I talked about a market that defies logic, see http://bit.ly/zCZYeP , well if there was ever any further proof, we talked about one of the strangest stories we have heard in a long time. If you didn't make it to mastermind this week you missed a great example on how not to price a house.
A few weeks ago an agent in our office listed a home for $549k. The research showed that he priced the home pretty close to market value. Despite that, he received eight offers and sold the house for $725k, exactly $176k over asking. Given the current market conditions, I suppose we can only be mildly surprised, but the story gets even more interesting. A week later, the neighbour puts his house on the market. It is a similar house but has two distinct advantages, it has a bigger garage and a better kitchen. The house gets listed for $589k through a different brokerage. Despite the fact that seven people lost out on the house next door, the house did not sell on offer night. Ultimately the listing agent found his own buyer and the home sold after 13 days on the market, for $7k under the asking price.
What gives? How is it possible that two similar houses, located next door to each other, selling a week apart, can sell for a difference of over $140k? While the story is shocking, some of the more experienced agents that attended our Mastermind session have seen it happen before and certainly our hearts go out to the second sellers. So here is our best explanation. The first house got caught up in what the Roman's called "auctio febris" also known as "auction fever". When the second house came on the market, the people who came to view it probably felt that the sellers were expecting significantly more and made the judgement call that it either wasn't worth the money or they didn't want to get into a heated bidding war.
Without speaking to the listing agent, it is impossible to get the full picture but from a purely casual observer point of view, it seemed that there were some lost opportunities along the way. Our agent wondered why the agent for the second house didn't call him to find out who the other 7 agents who missed out on the first house were. I have mentioned it in previous posts, it is critical to have good relationships with agents in your neighbourhood so that you can share information. Finally, we all agreed that if the first house was actually worth the eventual sale price then the agent probably should have listed it for $719K and not held back offers. The logic behind that strategy is simple. The value has already been established so setting the price significantly under "market Value" was off-putting to potential buyers. Once again proof that the pricing a home is not as easy as it seems.
As usual, I look forward to your comments, so please drop me a line when you can. RealtyLab works because we all share great stories. Have a great week!

That's a crazy story, I feel so sorry for the 2nd sellers 😦

Remember, you have zero cost or obligation until you accept a proposal from any recruiter.
NO comment
Tamara took the time to understand the role we were trying to fill.
While she had interest in our ad, she filtered the candidates and only sent me suitable candidates which saved me significant time.
While we were using other 'standard recruiters' on a success fee arrangement, in the end it was Tamara who found us the right candidate for us.
Out of all of the recruiters that we have worked with in the past, Tamara was the most eager to really understand what our workplace dynamic was like and what kind of candidates we were after.
We were blown away by the 2 candidates that were sent through for interviews and it was a very tough decision between the two.
Although we weren't in a huge rush to fill the position, Tamara worked very quickly and efficiently and the whole process took a little over a week!
Most impressed with RecruitLoop and withTamara. Highly recommended.
Tamara was very professional and easy to work with. I have already referred her onto my parents who are also looking for recruitment
I'm so glad I was put in contact with Tamara from RecruitLoop. We have worked together on 3 recruitment assignments now and I am a RecruitLoop convert. Using the RecruitLoop model has saved me time and money but still filled the positions I needed filled. I will never use a traditional recruiter again.
Hello Tamara Thank you for your assistance, given the low response and the further chat we had today, I will re assess re what type of person we are after. Speaking to my current CoOrdinator she suggested possibly a marketing background person, so I will review and see Again thank you for your help in this
We recently used the services of RecruitLoop (and specifically Tamara Blythman) to assist us in filling two key positions within our organisation. The comprehensive service provided, allowed us the freedom to select only very best candidates available, and took the pain out of a long, drawn out recruitment and filtration process. I can happily recommend Tamara and RecruitLoop to any employer that knows all too well the sometimes exhaustive process of pairing the correct person with the required position. Thanks Tamara, we will definitely be using your services again in the future!
When It was suggested I use RecruitLoop to secure my next employee I was prepared to try the service. I'd had another recruitment agent go through the process without success. I was a bit hesitant on the use of the video but it did allow me to see what the person was like before I met the person. All I can say is Tamara from RecruitLoop secured my new staff member within one week and I could not be happier.
I am very pleased to share my experience with Recruitloop. First, it is really smart to use online interviews. Previously I had the experience of wasting 2 hours to meet an agent, then without any further progress. The online interview solved the problem. It won't cost me anything before a business shows interest and wants to take it further. Second, Recruitloop really care about me. Before and after interview, my agent followed it up, and will always let me know when she would ring back. Not like "I will ring u back", but will never get the call. They treat you as a person, not just a profile in their system. I would like to thank Tamara, it is such a good experience dealing with you, always nice and so helpful! Even better, I got the job :) Tamara, you made it happen.Thank you

This post has nothing to do with internet content.
Richard's plan for the day was to construct the wet locker and I realised during the night that if he did this it would make the installation of the toilet tank micro filter rather difficult. So my first job for the day was to fit the filter before he completed prefabricating the locker.
The sanitation hose was trimmed to length and a piece of the off-cut used to connect the back of the filter to the brass skin fitting. Hose clips were then used on the ends of the hoses. The active carbon filter is supposed to prevent the "pong" from the boat being smelt outside. The carbon filter will collapse into a "soggy" lump if it gets wet. In an effort to avoid this the skin fitting has been fitted just under the gunwale. I would have liked to have fitted a "swans neck" into the sanitation hose but there is insufficient flexibility in the sanitation hose and the actual filter design doesn't lend itself to this!
It was obvious the day was going to be hot. Rather than wear an old polo shirt and jeans, I elected to wear my "battered" overalls purchased whilst we were living in Plymouth this time last year. There was a brief moment of indecision whether (or not) to go "commando". In the end I decided not to outrage anyone's sense of modest and wore my jockey supporters underneath. I suspect my selection of attire was cooler than the clothing worn by the marina staff. However I'm also probably slightly more acclimatized to hot weather.
After Richard and I had trimmed and hung the cupboard door we fitted the locker to the back cabin.
The bottom of the door is slightly higher than the planned rear top step out of Waiouru. It will have a top shelf with a clothes rail on the underside for jackets and wet weather gear. There will be a lift-up base to the locker so the bottom can be used for long-term storage. I forgot to borrow a paintbrush before the workshop closed which will delay me varnishing the locker by a day, but that's not an issue.
After scrounging around the workshop I found an irregular shaped piece of 5mm steel plate which I've cut into a 150x150mm square. After rounding all the edges and cleaning both faces I gave it a coat of primer. Tomorrow I'll drill and tap it with 5mm threaded holes so the stern bilge pump can be screwed to it. Once I've given it a couple of coats of bilge paint it will be installed under the stern gear and the pump outlet plumbed to the skin fitting.
Meanwhile Jan caught the bus to Newbury for a fruit and veg shop. Apparently the first bus went straight past her ignoring the fact she had her hand out to flag it down. I don't think she appreciated having to stand out in the sun for an additional 30 minutes waiting for the next bus! Despite this we have now been restocked with perishables. She has also made some homemade ice cream using her own recipe. Something was mentioned about another major online order for dry goods whilst she had a valid "free delivery" voucher. There is only so much she can carry back to Waiouru in my daypack.
Tomorrow we start on the spare bed and I'll also have to find the time to install the bilge pump.

"Take a look at the earnings estimates for the 4th quarter and next year, particularly the EPS growth percent. Looks like the analysts are expecting some big improvements. Hope they are right!"Be careful of what you are looking at. For example, next quarter there are 2 (only 2) analysts looking at this stock. One of the two is estimating 0.28 for the Q, the other -0.12. That makes the average 0.08, not a bad number, but hardly a VALID consensus. If you go out to next year, only one of those guys has offered his guess, and he thinks 1.00 for the year. Let's think about this for a moment, (and I am making the assumption that the 99 est is being made by the same analyst that had the bright picture for Dec98). That individual anticipates 0.28 for Q4-98, and yet only 1.00 for Q1+Q2+Q3+Q4-99. That to me sounds like it is going in the wrong direction. Based on the 0.28, I would hope to see something greater than 0.28+0.28+0.28+0.28 or >1.12 for the full 99. My point is that with this small of a sample size, you need to be very cautious. Yes, I am still long on DATM, but I don't put a lot of failth in these numbers.Thoughts....???

Young good feeling in the rocky soil and sandy soil. So if you like gardens or gravel paths, this plant will help to make them more attractive and original.
In landscape design Young usedlong - even in the Middle Ages they were decorated with flat roofs. The ancient Romans believed that this plant removes the storm. The British also landed Young on the roof, calling him a live tile. The French - the creators of beautiful gardens and parks of the palace began to combine different varieties of roses on stone paths, along the borders, doing carpet landings. Already in the 19th century stone rose was used for decoration of the Alpine hills and in asymmetric free garden plantings.
Semi-circular flowerbed at the track is made with beautifully lined with stones and three kinds of youth. The harmonious combination of pastel shades attracts attention and pleasing to the eye
Thanks to an excellent decorative qualities, the stone rose breeders have noticed. Currently, there are more than 4,000 varieties of youth.
Molodilo widely used:
- for planting in rock gardens;
- to create a carpet and ornamental patterns on the beds, in the tracks and curbs;
- as decorative element on the background of sand and gravel;
- for planting on slopes;
- for group plantings on the background of ornamental shrubs;
- to create compositions in pots.
Molodilo also grown in frames, so thattopiary shapes using this plant can create and experiment, combining its forms, combining it with other plants. On the flat roof of the low land it can be rejuvenated, and today, when various design refinements in fashion.
The root system of this plant is small,so it can be planted almost anywhere - in the gap for paving paths, between stones, his awesome appearance enliven any element of garden design. Young can take root even in places where other plants planted useless. Anywhere garden graceful stone rose will look exotic decoration.
Carpet designs using young
A variety of colors and shapes of stone rosesIt allows designers to effectively draw the curve of the track in the garden or park, or create a "patchwork" of different species of plants. When planting a flat area even some craftsmen create a picture of the young. Sempervivum forms a beautiful combination with ground cover - stonecrop, saxifrage, Armero and others.
Modern varieties Young presented in a variety of colors: light and dark green, maroon, yellow, pink, silver. This diversity allows you to create luxurious living carpets.
Monoposadka all sorts of varieties of stoneRose recalls star placer. Such beauty will delight you all summer, you only need to put the plant in a sunny part of the garden and occasionally watered. Dense planting young virtually eliminates weeds
In one landing, you can create compositionsdifferent varieties or odnosortovye monokompozitsii - and they both look very aesthetically pleasing. Created with the help of stone rose patterns and lines - a living mosaic. Of course, the effort required to properly break the cell, but the resulting ornamental patterns will be worth your efforts.
Young on a bed in a frame of other colors. To create a tortuous path 4 cultivar used - the same along the edges and larger at the center. Sockets form a beautiful pattern, contrasting with bright colors
Create a mini-rockeries with rock rose
Not every site can be brokenrockeries, to create it requires a certain area, the creation of embankments, if there are no suitable landscape areas. A miniature version of rockeries - a small rocky garden can be done by any stretch.
Choose shrubs that will create backgroundthe composition, such as barberry. You can use a clay pot or vase, pebbles or gravel. Put the pot on its side, reinforce, pour soil capacity within and immediately adjacent land and landed the young rosettes. Next to the flower pots can be placed a few boulders, and the area around the fill composition shingle or gravel. Mini garden is ready, it looks very beautifully, and make it possible in any sunny corner of the garden.
The two options for creating a mini-rockeries: with clay flowerpot and wicker baskets. Capacity, little pebbles or gravel, a few sockets young - and nice composition ready
Young - plant-leader in the creation of modern landscape compositions in the style of minimalism, retain their decorative quality throughout the year.
Mini rockeries with elements of gravel garden: using colored gravel create the effect of flowing water, "streams" are decorated with elegant rosettes Young
Kadochnye, pottery and more original options
If you like the small form of mini-gardens, plantseveral varieties of roses in a beautiful stone flowerpot or a large garden pot. You can try to create a mini-garden in the oriental style, using stones and even oriental statues. Such an area will have to contemplate, care of the daily hustle and bustle, relax.
Options to create a small rocky garden in pots - can be used as one kind or different land plants in several capacities
Youth - in itself the original plant,so it looks great in the exotic surroundings. Pick original containers for it - it can be colored pots and old broken jug or pot, and plastic color basin, and a steel box and even old shoes.
Although water is not used in the composition,it seems that the rosettes are young, who have undeniable similarities with the water lilies floating in the water. The illusion reinforces blue container, blue and green decorative glass gravel
New life of old shoes - fill them with soil, and plant the roses in the slot of the young. Such unusual compositions always attract attention
Especially effectively looks young in the rock andconcrete containers. For plants with small root system, low, it is better to choose a squat vase. The flat container rozetochki beautiful small plants form a beautiful unusual composition, seeming artificial. They want not only to be considered, but also touch. The only requirements for the cultivation of potted roses stone - provide a flow of moisture and separate child processes if you do not want to composition changed, growing.
The effective composition in the beautiful squat flowerpot: to create it several varieties of young used, colored gravel and ceramic decoration
Stone Rose is surrounded by stone - the plants planted by species groups, separated by chains of stones group clearly distinguished on a light background
Combining the simplicity of care andexotic beauty, rock rose allows any amateur gardeners to try yourself as a designer and create an interesting composition that will make your garden special - the original, alive, attractive and beautiful is doubly because this beauty - the case of your hands.
