Over the past week or so, I've been searching for a fun St. Patrick's Day recipe to create and share with y'all. Although I was initially thinking of something savory, this happened—boozy cupcakes. If you spend anytime on social media, you know that this time of year Guinness and Irish liquor inspired sweets are all the rage. So, I finally jumped on the bandwagon. Having recently fallen hard for NOLA Brewing's Irish Channel Stout, it was tough not to. Irish Channel Stout is the Guinness of New Orleans—only better. Yes, I'm partial to local products. But I also find this beer to be more flavorful and easier to drink than Guinness. And like most stouts, NOLA Brewing's version delivers plenty of coffee and chocolate notes—a perfect profile for baking—which I have emphasized in this recipe with the addition of more chocolate and more coffee. But don't freak out if coffee and craft beer (stouts to be exact) are not your thing. These cupcakes will appeal to anyone who loves, or likes, chocolate.
About the name. The Irish Channel is an old, working-class neighborhood in New Orleans that was settled in the early 19th century predominately by Irish immigrants who came looking for work following the great potato famine. It's a quaint little vacation destination in the Central Garden District that's home to one of the country's best St. Patrick's Day parades, two great Irish bars/restaurants (Parasol's and Tracey's) and, more recently, NOLA Brewing Company.
Until next time …
Irish Channel Stout Cupcakes Recipe
2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
2 cups sugar
3/4 cup natural unsweetened cocoa powder, plus more for dusting
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 cup Irish Channel Stout
1/2 cup canola oil
1 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup hot coffee
1 stick unsalted butter, softened
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
4 cups powdered sugar, sifted
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
4-6 tablespoons whole milk
Mini chocolate chips
FOR THE CUPCAKES. Line 2 12-cup muffin tins with decorative paper liners; set aside. Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In the bowl of a electric mixer with whisk attachment, briefly blend the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder and salt on low speed. Add the eggs, beer, oil and vanilla. Mix on low speed, scraping down the sides as necessary, until thick and creamy, about 5 minutes. With the mixer running, gradually add the hot coffee, mixing at low speed until just combined. The batter will be quite thin. Transfer batter to a 4-cup measuring cup and pour equal amounts into prepared muffin tins. Bake for about 10 minutes then switch positions, rotate pans and bake for another 10-12 minutes, or until set. Transfer cupcakes to a wire rack; let cool completely.
FOR THE FROSTING. In the bowl of an electric mixer with paddle attachment, beat butter and cream cheese on medium speed until fluffy. Reduce speed to low and gradually add powdered sugar; beat until well incorporated. Add vanilla, salt and 3 tablespoons milk; beat for 3 minutes. Add an additional 1 to 3 tablespoons milk until you reached desired consistency. Increase speed and beat until frosting is smooth and fluffy.
ASSEMBLY. Pipe or spread equal amounts of frosting onto each cupcake. Dust with cocoa powder and decorate with mini chocolate chips. Makes 24 cupcakes.

So do you think guys or girls are more shallow when it comes to dating and so on.

Most Helpful Girl
I think we are both equally shallow, but girls are just ass holes. If you ask a girl if she likes something, more times than not, she will tell you the harsh truth. Especially if she's pissed off on a particular day. Guys would rather ignore or just take what they can get but that doesn't mean that they want an "ugly person"00|00|1
"If you ask a girl if she likes something, more times than not, she will tell you the harsh truth."
I've generally thought that guys tend to be more frank about things, I've head girls take weeks to actually say they're not interested and in the meantime just being indecisive in their language.
Well most of the time with that they usually are getting something out of being "indecisive". Most girls know straight out if they like someone or not and are just stalling because they are having second thoughts because the guy is "so nice". Anyway, I'm a girl I think I would know how dumb some things can get.

text: Would you trust a shoe brand that you've never heard of? I usually avoid brands that I'm like "who the...?" but lately I've seen some relatively cheap shoes (between $50 - $100 on sale range) that I'm wondering what the quality is like. I don't want to be one of those women that falls flat on her face because her heel broke. I've already had that happen once and thank god I was in my own home! My general rule is "stick to what you know" so the more popular brands like Christian Louboutin. I also wear Bandonlinos as I know those are good quality products and reasonably priced. I'm dying for a pair of white stilletos though, like Carrie Bradshaw wore in SATC, which are Manolos but I can't find them anywhere! I've seen some white stilletos on eBay by some no name brand, but really don't know if I can trust its quality. BTW, if anyone knows where I can get those babies, please let me know!! Even ones that look like them but aren't going to fall apart after 2 seconds! I wish buying shoes was simpler!

Akie (100% owned)
The Akie claim block consists of 46 contiguous mineral claims that cover 116 square kilometres and hosts the National Instrument 43-101 (NI 43-101) compliant Cardiac Creek deposit. The Akie zinc-lead-silver property is situated within the southernmost part (Kechika Trough) of the regionally extensive Paleozoic Selwyn Basin, one of the most prolific sedimentary basins in the world for the occurrence of SEDEX zinc-lead silver and stratiform barite deposits. The property is road accessible via a series of all-weather gravel logging roads. The Cirque deposit, owned under a 50-50 Joint Venture between Teck Resources and Korea Zinc, is located approximately 22 km to the northwest of the Akie property and is also road accessible. The Cirque and Cardiac Creek deposits share many similarities: size, age, SEDEX origin, mineralization within the same stratigraphic units, and considerable exploration potential.
Drilling on the Akie property by Inmet Mining Corporation from 1994 to 1996 and by Canada Zinc Metals from 2005 to the present has identified a significant body of barite enriched lead-zinc-silver SEDEX mineralization which has been named the Cardiac Creek deposit. The deposit is hosted by variably siliceous, fine grained clastic rocks of the Middle to Late Devonian Gunsteel Formation. Exploration completed to date suggests that the Cardiac Creek deposit is open for expansion, particularly the higher grade mineralization along strike to the northwest and southeast and down the dip of the plane of the deposit to the southwest.
In the spring of 2016, the Company completed an updated mineral resource estimate for the Cardiac Creek deposit, compliant with National Instrument 43-101 (NI-43-101) Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. The updated mineral resource estimate was prepared by Robert Sim, P.Geo with the assistance of Bruce Davis, FAusIMM. Mr. Sim is an independent Qualified Person within the meaning of NI 43-101 for the purposes of mineral resource estimates and was responsible for the 2008 maiden resource and the 2012 updated resource estimate.
The revised NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate consists of an indicated category of an indicated resource of 19.6 million tonnes grading 8.2% zinc, 1.6% lead and 13.6 g/t silver (at a 5% zinc cut-off grade) and an inferred resource of 8.1 million tonnes grading 6.8% zinc, 1.2% lead and 11.2 g/t silver (at a 5% zinc cut-off grade).
Using this estimate, the deposit contains 3.54 billion pounds of zinc, 685 million pounds of lead and 8.6 million ounces of silver in the indicated category, and 1.2 billion pounds of zinc, 207 million pounds of lead and 2.9 million ounces of silver in the inferred category (at 5% zinc cut-off). The deposit remains open along strike and at depth.
The calculated mineral resource estimate at 5% Zn cutoff can be seen in Table 1.0.
Table 1: Estimate of Mineral Resources (5% Zinc cut-off)
Note: Mineral resources are not mineral reserves because the economic viability has not been demonstrated
The sensitivity of the calculated mineral resource estimate at a series of industry-standard cut-off Zn grades, can be seen in Table 2.0
Table 2: Sensitivity of Mineral Resources to Cut-off Grade
(1) "Base case" cut-off grade of 5% Zn highlighted in table
(2) Mineral resources are not mineral reserves as the economic viability has not been demonstrated
The "base case" cut-off grade of 5% Zn is considered reasonable based on assumptions derived from operations with similar characteristics, scale and location. The distribution of Indicated and Inferred mineral resources, above a cut-off grade of 5% Zn, occurs as a continuous zone, which is favourable with respect to selectivity and other factors when considering possible mining options. The orientation, dimensions and location of the deposit indicates that it is potentially amenable to underground mining methods, and, as a result, the stated resource is considered to exhibit reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction. The potentially economic portion of the deposit occurs over a known strike length of 1,300 metres, extends to at least 800 metres below surface and averages about 20 metres in thickness. The deposit currently remains "open" along strike to the NW and to the SE and down-dip to the SW.
Cardiac Creek NI 43-101 Resource Estimate at Various Zinc Cut-Off Grades
1)Estimate based on drilling results inclusive to 2015 data
2)Average width of deposit is estimated at 20 metres (true thickness)
Highlighted in the table is the "base case" cut-off grade of 5% zinc for the sulphide resource, which is based on assumptions derived from operations with similar characteristics, scale and location. The report further states that the resource occurs as a relatively continuous zone which is favourable with respect to selectivity and other factors when considering mining options. This, when combined with the results of previous geological, metal zoning and structural investigations and the results of drilling completed to date, suggest that the Cardiac Creek deposit has economic potential sufficient to warrant additional expenditures on exploration and development. The potentially economic portion of the deposit occurs over a known strike length of 1,300 metres, extends to at least 800 metres below surface and averages about 20 metres in thickness. The deposit currently remains "open" in all directions.
AKIE Drill Hole Assay Compilation 2005 to 2015
The North Lead Anomaly and the Northwest Extension
The northwest extension and the North Lead anomaly are two highly prospective zones on strike to the NW of the Cardiac Creek deposit that may in fact be extensions to the deposit. The zones are separated by about 800 meters and constitute approximately 2.5 kilometers of step-out from the current northern limit of the deposit. Mineralization in both zones occurs at the same stratigraphic position and is similar in character to that of the mineralization closely associated with the Cardiac Creek deposit.
About the North Lead Anomaly: This large lead-in soil anomaly was defined through close-spaced soil sampling by Inmet and later tested by limited drilling in 1996. It is located some 2.3 km northwest of the nearest drill hole to penetrate the Cardiac Creek deposit. In 1996 Inmet intersected high grade zinc and lead mineralization in hole A-96-24 (11.60% zinc and 9.05% lead over an interval of 0.80 metre) within pyritic sulphide mineralization, hosted by Gunsteel Formation shale. Close examination of drill core revealed mineralized debris flow fragments and matrix associated with quartz-carbonate alteration, and widespread high lead/zinc ratios in overlying soils samples, suggesting the presence of a hydrothermal feeder zone/vent complex with possible Cardiac Creek styles of high grade mineralization at the transition between the vent complex and the laterally extensive bedded ore facies.
Subsequent follow-up drilling by Canada Zinc in 208, 2010 and 2011 has attempted to expand the zone with initial success in 2008, with zinc and lead values, which increase up-dip, are locally as high as 9.82% and 0.17%, respectively). Drilling in 2010 tested the up and down-dip as well as the strike extent of the mineralization and alteration intersected in the previous drilling. While no additional alteration or vent-proximal features were intersected, thick, 125 metres intervals of laminar to bedded pyrite mineralization interbedded with Gunsteel Formation shale was encountered down-dip and along strike to the northwest in drill holes A-10-68 and A-10-76. This mineralization was highly anomalous with zinc values ranging from <1000 ppm to greater than 2%. A total of 7 holes have tested the zone.
The North Lead Anomaly remains a high priority target for future drilling programs. The Company has initiated a detailed review of all drill holes in the North Lead Anomaly and plans to target a new series of drill holes to follow-up on significant mineralized intervals intersected in the 2013 drill program.
The NW Extension target is situated between the Cardiac Creek deposit and the North Lead Anomaly. Nine drill holes were completed on this target in 2010 and 2011 totaling 3,255.72 metres. The 2010 program tested for Cardiac Creek style mineralization at the 1000 metre elevation where the bulk of the high grade mineralization occurs at the deposit. Proximal Facies mineralization was intersected in A-10-69 over 14.87 metres and returned highly anomalous zinc values, consistently in excess of 2,000 ppm and reaching 1.90%. In addition, a thin lens of massive sulphide mineralization was intersected in A-10-72 within the underlying Paul River Formation. This 1.17 metre interval returned 2.69% Zn, 0.60% Ni and 4.36 g/t Ag and contained highly anomalous values across a diverse suite of elements, including: molybdenum, copper, lead, cobalt, arsenic, uranium, cadmium, antimony, bismuth, vanadium, phosphorus, mercury, thallium, selenium, rhenium, gold and palladium. This mineralization is of similar character to the Nick Deposit in the Yukon.
Follow-up drilling in 2011 returned intervals of proximal facies mineralization highly anomalous in zinc with values consistently in excess of 1,000 ppm. A thin 1.6 metre massive sulphide lens underlying the Proximal Facies mineralization was intersected in A-11-88, and returned 6.99% Zn, 0.25% Pb and 2.35 g/t Ag. The NW Extension mineralization remains open along strike and remains a high priority target for follow-up drilling. A total of 5 widely spaced holes have tested the zone.
Further delineation and exploration drilling at the Cardiac Creek deposit is being considered using underground drilling stations located in the footwall of the deposit on the 950m elevation. All permitting and engineering designs are complete and in hand in order to commence the underground drill program.

In August 2012, Geotech Ltd. of Aurora Ontario completed a large-scale, 1,577 line kilometre airborne Vertical Time Domain EM (VTEM) geophysical survey over the Akie, Pie and Mt. Alcock properties. The survey had a nominal line spacing of 200 metres but was tightened to 100 metre spacing over key areas of interest such as the Cardiac Creek deposit. The primary goal of the survey was to obtain lithological and structural information both near surface and at depth across the three properties, as well as define a geophysical response directly from the Cardiac Creek deposit and other known occurrences of mineralisation.
In late 2012, the Company engaged Condor Consulting Inc. of Littleton, Colorado, recognized as experts in the field of airborne electromagnetics, to conduct a comprehensive processing, analysis and interpretation of the EM and magnetic data from the VTEM survey.
Condor completed a number of processing steps to evaluate the data, including layered-earth inversion, time constant and depth imaging. Interpretative results generated from the VTEM data indicate an excellent correlation between the known geological and structural data and the EM conductivity response generated from the survey. The Devonian Gunsteel Formation black shale, known host to the mineralized occurrences in the belt, is easily identified as a conductive trend and can be traced across the Akie and Pie properties. Additionally, the western thrust panel of rocks, which have been tentatively assigned to the Gunsteel Formation and which host the GPS barite showing, have a similar conductive trend and is traceable across the two properties. Other key lithological units such as the Kechika Group siltstone and limestone of the Kwadacha Reef are also discernible by variation in conductivity and resistivity.
The result of this detailed analysis has shown that areas of known mineralization such as Cardiac Creek and Mt. Alcock are located along conductive trends and exhibit elevated conductivity and depressed magnetic signatures. Three profiles across the Cardiac Creek deposit show a strong conductor ranging from the surface to about 300 m depth which is about the depth limit that the VTEM survey data can be resolved with confidence.
Despite the strong conductor seen at Cardiac Creek, it is not unique and is only a small portion of a larger conductive lineation seen through the VTEM survey block. Plan view images indicate the conductivity along the Cardiac Creek deposit is slightly lower than along the same conductor just north and south of the deposit.
The decreased magnetic signature observed around the Cardiac Creek deposit is possibly due to magnetite destruction caused by hydrothermal fluids proximal to a source vent. Condor believes that the magnetic lows coincident with elevated conductivity are a significant geophysical signature that may accompany proximal mineralization and can be used as an exploration vector toward finding new zones.
The detailed analysis also generated a series of 25 Target Zones (TZ) on all three properties. The target zones are groupings of conductors (either discrete conductor picks or wide features from depth imaging) that are prioritized based on the degree of correlation of the observed response with the defined target model. The target zones have been referenced against the known geological, structural and drill data.
Several target zones are located along strike of known mineralization, including northwest and southeast of the Cardiac Creek deposit. The largest and strongest target zone identified in the survey is east of Cardiac Creek on an eastern panel of Gunsteel Formation that has seen only limited historical soil sampling with reconnaissance line spacing. TZ-17 is a long conductor, possibly positioned along a fold axis, which appears to be dipping east and is associated with an increased resistivity signature similar to that of Cardiac Creek.
Another target zone, east of Cardiac Creek, is coincident with a very large and strong historical zinc-in-soil anomaly (South Zinc Anomaly) that remains largely untested by systematic exploration. Additional targets are present on the eastern side of Silver Creek, located opposite to the Cardiac Creek deposit, and within the prospective Gunsteel Formation. The eastern side of Silver Creek has seen only limited exploration including soil sampling that defined the South Zinc anomaly in 1996. This region was also highlighted in the 2012 hydrogeochemistry sampling program and will continue to be assessed for the upcoming 2013 exploration program.
Several target zones are located in the vicinity of the GPS Showing where a single drill hole was attempted in 2011 to test surface mineralization at depth, but failed to reach the target depth due to poor near-surface ground conditions. This location remains a high priority drill target and will be retested from a new location. Several targets were also identified on the Pie property, most notably on the West Pie target area within the interpreted Gunsteel Formation shale. These targets will be assessed in the upcoming field season.

The results also defined the western panel of Gunsteel Formation shale and associated rocks on the Mt. Alcock property and suggest an increased level of structural complexity compared to the existing mapping. A prominent EM lineation is present along strike to the southeast of the Main Barite showing. Historical drilling on the Main Barite showing intersected 8.8 metres grading 9.3 % combined Zn+Pb and 1.2 opt Ag in drill hole 89-3 and 10.5 metres grading 6.8 % combined Zn+Pb and 0.7 opt Ag in drill hole 89-9(4). This EM lineation is situated outside of any historical surface work and remains untested and is a high priority target for follow-up work.
Targets were identified on the Mt. Alcock property located northwest of the Main Zone in rocks interpreted to be Road River Group. This interpretation will be reassessed due to the similar EM conductivity pattern known from the Gunsteel Formation. These targets will be followed up in the field to determine the host lithologies and the possibility of a potential thrust repeat of the Gunsteel Formation shale.
Based on these results the Company has plans to expand the 2012 VTEM coverage to include both the Yuen and Cirque East properties, and the northern half of its claim holdings located northwest of Mt. Alcock. A VTEM survey utilized in conjunction with the ongoing digital compilation of exploration data on the northern properties is expected to yield numerous, and possibly drill ready, high priority targets.

Following up on the results of the 2011 baseline hydrogeochemistry, a total of 121 water samples were collected from primary and secondary drainages on the Akie, Pie, Yuen, and Mt. Alcock properties. Based on the initial field observations of turbidity, several areas returned highly anomalous levels of sulphate. These include the northern area of Central Pie, West Pie and Mt. Alcock. An additional sample was taken downstream of the GPS showing confirming its anomalous nature. Interestingly, certain drainages underlain by rocks of the Road River Group, generally thought to be non-prospective, returned anomalous values on the Pie, Mt. Alcock and Yuen properties. These areas will need to be investigated further in order to determine a possible source. The field observations are at this point preliminary results and will be confirmed by the analytical results at a future date, upon which final interpretations will be made. Based on the final interpretation, future sampling will focus on tertiary drainages in order to pinpoint the source of the sulphate anomalies and the presence of possible SEDEX style mineralization.

Phil planned to propose to me at the Taj Mahal. The plan didn't go exactly as he'd envisioned… here's an excerpt from Together On Top of the World!
The bus had been crawling through the congested streets of Delhi for close to an hour when it became obvious that there was no way we would make it to the Taj in two hours. An hour later, when we were still in the Delhi outskirts, I could see we wouldn't make it there before dark. Man, I hope it's open at night, I thought, because we have a plane to catch tomorrow morning. At 7:00pm we pulled into the parking lot. It was pitch black. No sign of the Taj anywhere. We piled off the bus; the driver went to investigate, and I got a sinking feeling in my stomach… I began rethinking my game plan…
The next morning I woke Sue early and in classic Sue mode, she didn't want to get up… Finally she put on her down jacket, her hat, and her headlamp and followed me onto the trail. I walked fast—this was "Taj Mahal II" and I didn't want to blow it. I was timing it so we'd arrive just as the alpenglow was beginning. I scurried along for a few paces, then turned to make sure Sue was on my heels. She was there—but so were all the customers! I didn't want an audience for my proposal!
"Hey," I said to them, trying to sound gentle, "why don't you guys hang here for a bit?"
They took the hint and I led Sue about 100 yards away to the next rise in the trail. By now the light was growing and Kangchenjunga was getting a pinkish glow. I hugged Sue to me and we watched as the alpenglow deepened. Just when it was at its height I pulled out the little box with the ring. "You know, so much of the last decade of my life was tied up here in the Himalayas. Expeditions were always the number one thing. But now my life has taken a turn. Now you're the focal point and…"
Sue began to cry. I had opened the box and the sun was refracting off the diamond's facets. "Oh my," she said and through her tears, "I missed the words. Are you asking me to marry you?"
"No," I said, "that's a friendship ring."
"Great," she said. "I can't wait to see the real thing."

Some women who have vaginal herpes only encounter one or two blisters while others suffer from multiple clusters of blisters on the vulva and inside the vagina. . 6) What else am I at risk of, and what should I be concerned about? What is the risk of contracting HIV for a straight man? In order to protect against STIs, condoms should be used at every act of sexual intercourse (including vaginal, anal or oral sex). Five days after taking 1000mg of Zithromax and 500mg of. I began looking at pictures of herpes and again found some comfort that my blisters hadn't become ulcers like most of the photos.
Finding the right size may be a matter of trial and error, because only a few manufacturers clearly show the length and width on the pack. Sometimes – and this is not a development I anticipated back then – they even want to have sex with me. Have condoms and water-based lubricant handy if you think there is a possibility that you will be having sex. With scissors, carefully snip off the elastic band part and tip of the condom and then cut down its length. However, the strength of evidence on the effectiveness of condoms in reducing the risk of other STDs are not at the level of those made for HIV, mainly due to the lower number of studies that have been done to address the other ETS and less robust in terms of methodology and design. Just low infectious. Very contagious raps should be trapped in cages Through stages of wackness, Pharoahe's raps are blazin And it amazes – me how you claim thug but go two-ways without SkyTel pagers I'm intellectual, pass more essays/ese's than motorcade police parades through East L.
I am terrified that it has been me that has been carrying the virus without knowing and have passed it on to my boyfriend, rather than the other way round. Condoms are also highly effective at preventing other STIs, HPV, and pregnancy, so use them! Regardless of when you noticed the break, contact your health care provider or a pregnancy resource center to discuss the possibility of pregnancy, what your options are and to take an STD test. have it, but only 30 percent develop symptoms. After all, why chance ruining a fabulous Caution Wear Black Ice? While genital herpes definitely cut into your love life, you can not finish it. Considerations For Implementing: Consistent and correct use of the male latex condom reduces the risk of sexually transmitted disease (STD) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmission.
The herpes test appears to be positive but that does not mean you will get herpes and in fact, your risk for getting herpes if exposed to an infected partner is far less than 1%. Hi, 34 yo caucasian woman who has only ever had sex with women. Among those who were visited by a peer educator, the adjusted odds ratio (OR) for condom use with the last occasional commercial partner was 3.87 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.43-6.15), and for the last repeat client was (OR 1.95, 95% CI: 1.23-3.09). Most health insurance plans now cover prescription birth control, annual wellness exams, and HIV and STI screenings with no copay, and many other services with some copay required. Let's say that no one has ever been tested. Most people infected with HSV-2 are not aware of their infection. Q: If a guy has a cold sore in his mouth, can I get genital herpes if he performs oral sex on me?
Three different classes of vectors can be derived from HSV: replication-competent attenuated vectors, replication-incompetent recombinant vectors and defective helper-dependent vectors known as amplicons. A compound with time. Chewing gum can leave a pleasant taste in your mouth. What if the condom breaks and that with a little more than a little silly herpes virus at the end? I am praying not to develop other symptoms in coming days. 5 to 2 months ago I had a brief sexual encounter with a girl whom may or may not have herpes. She told me today she has some vaginal herpes and now I am worried about that.
While the relationship is monogamous, both sides have the same type of infection (s) herpes (as par seroconcordant known), and both partners are free of other sexually transmitted infections, it is not necessary barrier methods such as condoms or dental dams use. An asymptomatic infection is an infection with no symptoms. However, outbreaks can also occur in areas that are not covered by a condom so condoms may not fully protect you from getting herpes. 2ndly out breaks can be some what controlled by our immune system keep the imune system boosted up and your less likely to get an outbreak most outbreaks occur when our immune system has a drop in how strong it was or supose to be or something weekend it.

If you've read anything about creating a successful Kickstarter campaign, anywhere, you've no doubt come across the generic advice about how important a good campaign video is. Kickstarter themselves have stated that projects without a campaign video are 30% likely to be funded, while there is a 66% higher chance of being funded, statistically, in projects that do have a video (with 50% of them going on to be successfully funded).
In this article, we'll go through what you need to have in your Kickstarter campaign video to succeed, and then the resources to help you make it cheaper than you might have thought possible. So, let's get started right away with the foundations of any campaign video.
It's worth remembering what the actual goal of your campaign video actually is. Yes, you want people to pledge money to your project, but ironically, if that's what you focus on when making the video, it's likely to fail. After all, watching some late night style infomercial on a project page, may work for infomercials, but will tend to fall flat on Kickstarter.
Instead of focusing on the money, consider instead, using the video to do just three things: Letting people get to know you, explaining the idea and giving to your audience.
Let's break those down a bit further:
Getting to Know You
This isn't just about saying your name and what you want. People meet uncountable numbers of strangers every week that they'll never remember, let alone care about. If you want people to fund your dream, you need them to know -and care about – your dream.
Make sure you tell people about anything that helps people understand where the project idea came from and what it would mean to you and the other members of your team to pull this off. Where it's relevant, go into your collective backgrounds, personal as well as professional. What fuels your passion enough to list a Kickstarter project about this? What were the challenges that drove you to Kickstarter specifically? (Wasteland 2 is a great example of this). In short, what dream are they helping to fulfill.
As Kickstarter themselves advise, "Tell your story." It's not the data points that will convince people. It's seeing part of themselves in you, and wanting to be part of helping you to live your dream, while also getting some great tangible rewards for themselves. We cover the rewards elsewhere, but for the video it's important to help them understand the dream and the idea.
Explaining the Idea
This is probably the simplest of all the sections here. Tell people what you'll actually be creating if (and do stress "if") you get the funding needed. Keep it short and to the point, but focused on what uniquely stands out about your solution, and how it fits into the story you began earlier.
Use bullet points and images as much as possible. We have some resources at the end of this article to help with this.
Run the script for this by several people who don't know what you're making at all and ask them to explain it back to you. You know what you're making intimately, so it's hard to remember which parts others won't understand, especially when they don't read every word (and they won't).
People instinctively want to help people who help them. Giving in a way that gives real value to many people, encourages many people to give value back to your project.
There are many ways to give, depending on who your audience is likely to be. The founders of Clang use humor to give people a fun time watching their video. Two Guys Spaceventure actually offer people a browser based test level of their game and wallpaper images.
Most of all, give people sincere gratitude for backing you, and taking time to learn about your dream project.
Obviously, go into what you're going to give them as backers, but always come from the place of aiming to give more than you expect to get. That's exactly when you tend to get more than you expected, which then lets you give more to others and repeat the cycle.
One of the most underrated and forgotten things you can give people is certainty, that is certainty of exactly what they'll be getting, when, and why they can actually believe it.
Make sure that dates, features, what's included and excluded is spelled out explicitly. Then make it more explicit.
Show what you already have, what's done and why their backing is the last missing piece. Many of the highly funded projects (such as the Pebble ePaper Watch) actually show a near finished version, already done when they launched on Kickstarter. It's easy to believe in any project that can do that.
Remember, we're all time crunched and tend to skip over details. We all want to feel certain, like we understand everything before committing time, money and emotional energy to anything. Making sure you let people know all the specifics, and letting them see for themselves, sends a powerful message.
This is real. You can make a real difference.
Note: On the subject of making a difference in the Kickstarter world, we also highly recommend checking out Kicking It Forward, which we take part in, with part proceeds of everything on this site.
Ask, Yes, Ask For Them to Back You
Once, and only once, you have given more than your viewers expect, you need to ask people to back you. There is no two ways about this. It needs to be you. Personally... and you need to explicitly ask them to back you now.
You don't need to be hard sell about it (in fact I'd recommend not to be), but you need to ask directly. This is what makes the difference between people actually making a decision over whether or not to fund you, and just drifting away to the next project without even thinking about it.
This needs to be the very last thing in the video, and it needs to be clear, and worded to focus on what they'll be getting, not what you want.
Some people feel uncomfortable asking, but if you're doing your campaign right you're offering them far more than you're asking, so it really is their loss if you don't ask. You don't need to be a salesperson about it. You just need to be you... and ask them to back you.
Finally, when sitting down to write and create what you want to say in your video, take a look at some of the cheap or free Kickstarter campaign video resources available over at our other article here.
Often it's easier to write around what you can do easily, rather than tearing your hair out trying to figure out how to do something, just because you wrote it that way in the beginning.
There's no real magic to creating a great Kickstarter campaign video. It's all about communicating clearly, letting people get to know you and making sure that you're offering people as much as you possibly can. The real discipline is going over what you're doing and checking each of these areas again and again to make sure you're really doing it to the next level.
Of course there are always new ideas, tools and methods as we all learn together as a community, so we'd love to hear about what you've found in the comments, or questions you have.
Until then, have fun, learn, make a difference and a video that funds the project of your dreams. And remember, as Kickstarter themselves put it:
"It doesn't have to be perfect, it just has to be you."


text: I had to get V8 #2 smogged ... test only of course ... but I don't want to get started down that road ... :-) I found a smog station on Blossom Hill (near 85) which said they wanted $50 for the test ... I went back and found it was now $60 ... what the hey ... an hour later and the tech's machine can't get a reliable RPM signal to complete the test ... even using the inductive sensor that clips around a spark plug wire! There's a gas station at the corner of Capitol Expressway and Senter Road which has a test only operation ... I had been there before and had a good experience ... it was just that they wanted $80 for the test. I called back Saturday and they said they had a $30 off phone coupon if I mentioned it when I went in. They are open 7 days a week. Early Sunday morning I warmed the engine up on the freeway then went in ... I was the only one there, so the car got hooked up right away. The smog tech got a stable RPM signal right away ... and he left the car running at 2500 RPM without the probe in the tail pipe to let everything warm up properly before the test. The car passed the test first time without problems. Until yesterday it seemed that all my Audis miss the specs on the first test cycle, which then means they need to run for 3 minutes at 2500RPM unloaded before retesting ... at which point they pass. It was great to see this guy knew enough to minimize the extra engine stress. All in all they seemed to know more than just how to operate the equipment ... even though they aren't allowed to make repairs ... So, if anyone in the south bay is looking for a smog tech, I'd recommend Capitol & Senter Smog (408) 227-0500. They are a mile or so west of the Capitol Expressway offramp from 101 in south San José.

Hi. I have a BladeCenter H chassis with several blade servers in it. And it has s DVD drive as well wich can be used by any server. The problem is that i cannot use the dvd drive any more. I have tried to upgrade os on one system and i got message that it cannot boot from the drive. The only thing i have done was to upgrade the firmware on the AMM of the chassis. Could this impact the communication between the blade server and the DVD drive? I have also tried to attach an external dvd drive via usb, but it could not see it. By the way, which version is the USB port on the BladeCenter H chassis? Should it be 2.0? I was surprised to see in bios of the servers that it was 1.1.
Best regards Alex.

We love Beer, People, and Local Foods
In October 2012, Otto's celebrated TEN years serving local food and fresh craft-brewed beer to the fantastic and faithful fans of our pub and brewery. Coincidently, on November 1, 2010 we opened our new location with more parking, more seating, and new services to offer our dedicated customers. If you also love Otto's, then we invite you to review us online.
Our new location is our gift to you.
You supported us when we barely had the funds to buy grain and hops.
You supported us when our parking lot became too small.
And you supported us by telling your friends and colleagues about us.
We thank you for everything you have done to make Otto's a destination for consistently great food, great beer, and great people.
Showcasing the brewing community
When we first looked at our new location, we realized that we had a lot of space to fill, and one way to do that was to expand our commitment to sharing with you some of the history of brewing in Pennsylvania.
Hanging on the walls, from the ceiling, and in display cases are examples of the creativity that 19th and 20th Century entrepreneurs used to inform the public about their products. Creating beer trays, posters, ashtrays, mugs, bottle labels, etc. was a lesson in history as well as marketing.
We hope you will walk around the restaurant and brewery and check out the variety of methods and messages that were used to get people to drink beer.
We would like to thank all of our "Friends of Otto's" who have allowed us to photograph, borrow, or buy the items displayed. In particular, we thank Rich Wagner, Larry Shanaman, Daryl Ziegler, Larry Handy, Alex Bierly, and Sam Komlenic. Without their breweriana knowledge, expertise, and commitment to preserving brewing history in Pennsylvania, what you see at Otto's simply would not exist.

Murder on the House: A Haunted Home Renovation Mystery
by Juliet Blackwell
Review by Harriet Klausner
Signet Mass Market Paperback ISBN/ITEM#: 9780451238849
Date: 04 December 2012 List Price $7.99 Amazon US / Amazon UK
Links: Author's Website / Show Official Info /
San Francisco bay area house renovator Mel Turner prefers her ability to communicate with ghosts remain a secret. However the Haunted House quarterly names her as a ghostbuster of historical homes. That leads to elderly widow Betty Bernini asking Mel to bid on renovating her home in the Castro District into a haunted bed and breakfast. Though she will reside in her home, Betty explains that she sold the house to Kim and Marty Propak who want the notoriety of a haunt. To win the bid she must remain overnight at the house while competing with Josh Avery of Avery Builders.
Mel arrives with her friends Stephen Nikolai and Claire Allen. However, she is greeted by the ghost of a little girl Annabelle Bowles, who is in a portrait with her brother Ezekiel circa 1911. As they begin their nocturnal time at the house with delivered pizza, Mel soon notices the ghost of Betty near an outside well. Their cell phones fail while Josh has vanished. Leaving the estate, they call the police. Inspector Crawford, who knows Mel from the Cheshire House homicide (see Dead Bolt) leads the investigation. Mel begs the ghosts of Annabelle and Betty to name the killer while the Propak couple, Mountain the gardener, and a young woman claiming ownership surface as the prime suspects as each has the motive. Meanwhile she learns from the Propak pair that she lost the bid to Josh who apparently stayed the night while Mel left to call the cops; though she wonders where he was as he missed pizza and murder.
Mel is a terrific protagonist who wishes she was not cursed with her gift. Ironically, her widower father remains in denial about his daughter's skill with sprits while her housemates (besides dad) and her friends accept her paranormal talent. The support cast is solid especially her two friends (frightened Stephen and kick butt Claire) while Annabelle, the victim, and the suspects are developed to a point where they move the plot forward. The house comes across like a character as well, since the historical abode adds atmospheric ghostly depth interwoven throughout the storyline such as the march of the toys and the singing (by Annabelle).
Readers will enjoy the latest Haunted House Renovation Mystery (see If Walls Could Talk) as this entry is an engaging leisurely-paced amateur sleuth that starts a bit slow while the audience meet the cast and absorbs the locale. Once the homicide occurs, the enjoyable storyline accelerates as the heroine investigates via the paranormal route while a killer observes her progress just in case another murder is needed on the mundane path. Though not as chilling as the paranormal locked in Dead Bolt, fans will enjoy Mel's inquiry in Murder On The House.

We live in a time of change in which everyone, especially young people, must take their responsibility in the country's transformation: Enrique Peña Nieto
· The greatest tribute Mexicans can pay our heroes is to remain united and continue working for Mexico with enthusiasm, courage and determination, he said.
As he led the Closing and Opening Ceremony for courses at the Military Education System facilities, President Enrique Peña Nieto said that the greatest tribute that Mexicans can pay our heroes is to, "Remain united and continue to work for Mexico with enthusiasm, courage and determination, " because, "We live in a time of change in which all social groups, especially young people, must take responsibility for the transformation of the country".
He called on the cadets of the various campuses of the military education system to, "Continue to prepare thoroughly, always prioritize their ideals and fight for the loftiest causes of the nation".
You have a duty to improve and go beyond what previous generations have done. So firmly assume the challenges of the twenty-first century".
During the event, held in the forecourt of the Heroic Military College, President Peña Nieto said that the government, "Has a strong commitment to the professionalism and continuous training of our soldiers, sailors and pilots".
Therefore, he added, "We have given a strong impetus to the improvement and updating of academic programs, as well as the expansion and modernization of the various schools that make up the Military Educational System".
He said that this is borne out by the creation this year of the, "Military Center for Health Sciences in Mexico City, and the recent expansion of the School of the Air, in Zapopan, Jalisco, two university campuses offering specialized, cutting-edge education".
He explained that more and more young people are choosing the military profession to serve Mexico. For example, "In the cycle that begins today, approximately 10,300 students have been enrolled, nearly 20 percent more than in the 2012-2013 period," he said.
He said that during the first four years of this administration, over 34,000 students have enrolled in the various degree courses and specialties available in the military education system.
The president noted that, "Training at military colleges and universities is a great honor as well as a great opportunity for professional achievement".
"Now, as never before, this education offers Mexicans from all walks of life the opportunity to enter military ranks and fulfill their highest aspirations to serve the community," he added.
He noted that at these prestigious institutions, "You acquire the values, knowledge and skills to ensure our freedom, sovereignty and independence and safeguard our laws, institutions and territory. Indeed, the legacy of honor of our armed forces lies in the heroic acts performed by our soldiers, sailors and airmen in full compliance with its lofty missions".
"Encouraged by the example of your fellow soldiers, I am confident that military school graduates will continue writing new glorious pages in defense of our Constitution, our institutions and our country," he said.
The president said: "As Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, I recognize the dedication, devotion and commitment of those who today concluded an important phase of their training. I especially congratulate those who came top of their classes, therefore reflecting the tradition of excellence in military education".
He also thanked the cadets who today begin courses as well as the officers, chiefs and generals who are continuing their professional training.
President Peña Nieto said that this year, our Armed Forces commemorate two milestones in their brilliant record of service to the nation: the 50th anniversary of the DN-III E Plan and the Centennial of the National Military Industry.
He recalled that in October 1916, "The Constitutionalist Army undertook the mission to manufacture its own weapons and ammunition to prevent external dependence, and thereby strengthen national sovereignty".
"The result of this decision has been the development of a strong, modern military industry, which produces top quality armored vehicles, weapons and ammunition of in Mexico. This industry is preparing to make rockets, cannons and experimental aircraft in the near future," he said.
He therefore thanked, "The architects of this new technology, engineers and military technicians, who thereby reaffirm their commitment to Mexico".
He also congratulated, "Our soldiers and pilots, for making the DN-III E the greatest symbol of solidarity, generosity and fraternity of the Armed Forces with the people to whom they are committed".
"For five decades, their disaster relief and humanitarian aid have saved the lives of thousands of Mexicans. When there have been earthquakes, hurricanes, floods and emergencies, you have been with society at the time when they needed you most. That became clear last week, through your rescue work and assistance to the communities affected by Hurricane Newton in several states in the north of the country," he said.
During the event, the president read the List of Honor of the Boy Heroes of 1847 and 1914, and presented certificates to the personnel who obtained the highest grades in the military education system schools.
General Salvador Cienfuegos Zepeda, Secretary of National Defense (SEDENA), said that, "Education is the main investment to ensure the successful future of the nation" adding that, "Education constitutes the greatest power of transformation Mexicans have".
He noted that, "History has shown that when a nation's education system works, the nation is transformed, evolves and generates progress".
He said that education is a melting pot of plurality, a fundamental guideline for civic teamwork. "The limits on diversity are expressed through coexistence within the law, respect and peace. This is the type of education demanded by pluralistic, democratic societies," he said.
He expressed the Armed Forces' gratitude to President Enrique Peña Nieto for, "The enormous effort and commitment to transform national reality, his broad state vision and the strong impetus given to the educational field, which is strategic and crucial in building a better, more prosperous, inclusive and safe Mexico, which we have joined with complete determination".
He said that education is a human right that should be demanded and respected. Only in this way can children and youth acquire sound knowledge, be trained in values and be able to develop their intellectual, physical and moral potential," he said.
He said that, "We cannot aspire to a good education without the involvement and determined participation of the authorities, management, teachers, students, parents and organizations related to this important strategic area".
He considered that, "Citizens must be more participatory and demanding, especially as regards our children's education. These actions must be reflected in the family, by training in values that will subsequently be reinforced in the classroom. Education is the cornerstone. Sailors, pilots and soldiers are quite clear about that".
He said that in order to meet the requirements of Education Reform, the Armed Forces have begun the comprehensive transformation of the Military Education System. "The process of transforming the military education system in Mexico is a reality," he declared.
He noted that, "The armed forces are more professional, we are better equipped and trained. We maintain our deep sense of belonging, honor and great loyalty to the nation".
He added that, "We will continue training every day, since education is essential to positively transforming a country's people, communities, institutions and society".
He announced that the end of the 2015-2016 year, the nation will have new professionals, technicians and specialists in various fields: 52 generals, 380 army chiefs, 2,009 officers, 5,647 troops, 97 colleagues from the Navy Secretariat and 13 civilians.
He said that this year, the first five women graduated in the use of artillery weapons and as combat engineers, to command tactical operating units. Thirty grant holders from Argentina, Brazil, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, the United Kingdom, Korea and the Dominican Republic also completed their studies.

After we had more than a dozen of questions, we classified them in 3 main groups. This happened quite spontaneously, because several of the participants actually were philosophers or philosophy students.
The reflection took the path of questioning whether things are in time and space or whether there is only movement, and the category of time would just be one created intersubjectivly by human beings to measure the relation between different movements. Although the issue might not seem exciting, the discussion actually was, due to several proposed imaginary exercises. This was possible because of the presence of several participants who had studied philosophy.
On the other hand, a large number of people did not participate, but just listened. Were they enjoying listening to the discussion or where they lost? Is "a good session" of a philosophical café an interesting session where most people participate, or is it a session where an interesting discussion on a high philosophical level occurs? Again, here the question can only be answered meaningfully in the specific context.
It seems clear though that the quality of a session depends on the interventions of the participants more than on the "moderator", although I as a moderator also play a role in the chain of events by inducing participants to bring out the best of themselves through asking them to deepen an interesting idea or to further question some idea that was not expressed quite well, or to resume an idea, which was expressed in a complicated way, in easier terms and to propose some controversial consequences of that idea, so that any participant would feel invited to join the conversation on that issue.
So both kinds of sessions might be considered successful: 1) a session with a large number of engaged participants on different levels of reflection and 2) a session with a small number of engaged participants, but with a sharper level of reflection. Both kinds of experience are a special gift to both the practitioner and the participants. And we do not want to get the same gift each time.

By Gene Anniversary SS on
Vehicle1997 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 SS 2dr Coupe
ReviewI traded my one year old 1996 Z28 for the spectacular white with Huggar orange striped 1997 Anniversary SS 6 speed coupe. It had all SLP options sans the extra set of racing wheels that had slicks. With only 3k miles on the car, I decided to install the GMPP LT4 Hot Cam Kit with a set pf ported heads and JBA headers. Got a custom tune for the cam. WOW. That was one hot, quick and beautiful SS. I sold this car only a couple years after buying it to get the new SVT F150 Lightning. I am now waxing nostalgic for another 97 LT1 SS. I've already got my eyes on one that is low mileage. If you want the ultimate 97 SS, look for the limited 100 produced SS with the LT4 engine. Those were $40 grand.
Best FeaturesWhite with orange stripes was the best version. 6 speed T56 tranny
Worst FeaturesHow do you improve a car like that one.

After a long (short) day of working hard (hardly working) as a substitute teacher, I went grocery shopping on the way home. I skipped this activity last week because I really couldn't afford to buy anything. I ate a lot of baked potatoes instead.
As the cashier rang up my items, totalling $30, I thought about how I probably couldn't afford it… but I didn't purchase anything wasteful, and I would just have to make ends meet somehow. I flashed back to last week, when I slipped my credit card through the machine in exchange for a new pair of glasses (on order).
I don't know how, but I am confident God will provide.
After I unloaded my groceries, I paused to open my mail. I was most curious about a plain white envelope that bore no evidence of the sender but the postmark. I instantly knew who it was, but wondered what this person had to send.
That's right. $100. For me.
I'm still shaking my head in surprise.
Somehow, it's even more exciting to see how God meets our needs when it's done at the genoristy of other people.
Thank you.

Mo'nique is celebrating her 4o something weight lost, going from 262 to 220 lbs. She revealed to Life & Style magazine her reasons behind her weight lost. Monique candidly tells the magazine:
"The sex is better! I have so much more energy. I can move around better, and that's what it's all about. I want to lose more, so I'll just keep eating better and exercising, and the weight will come off," she says. "It took time to put in on, and it will take time to take if off. It's still okay to be big, but let's be big and healthy. I had to lose some weight to get healthier because I want to be around for a while. I have twin sons who are 3 and a son who is 19, and I want the opportunity to meet their children."
She also states that her weight has plateaued short of her goal, but that she isn't discouraged and will continue working towards her goal.
I'm glad she's working towards being healthier and living a long life. Congrats.

Editor's Note: ESPN Insider has teamed with Blue Ribbon College Basketball Yearbook to provide a comprehensive look at all 326 Division I teams. To order the complete 25th anniversary edition of Blue Ribbon College Basketball Yearbook, visit www.blueribbonyearbook.com or call 1-866-805-BALL (2255).
(Information in this team report is as of October 1.)
This year Bethune-Cookman hopes to be a good team right to the end.
The Wildcats were a bit of a surprise in the MEAC last season as they hung around the middle of the pack and were 12-12 late in the season. Bethune-Cookman is traditionally at the bottom of the MEAC and almost always plays in the opening round of the league tournament.
A year ago, the Wildcats were sitting at 8-6 in the league and had a real chance to finish in the upper half standings. But Cliff Reed's club hit the wall and lost its final four games to finish 8-10 and in eighth place. The Wildcats lost two of those games by a total of five points.

Just like rosemary, the consensus is to "love it less"!
Do not over-water.
There are gardeners who grew Lavender very well in Singapore. They shared tips on how to germinate and customized soil mixes so that this plant can thrive here.
Henry Lim's lavender journey :
Began in September 2015 with a Paris Garden kit.
His lavender seeds did not germinate for a long time and Henry initially gave up on the project and re-purposed the soil for other plants.
Henry said germination can take up to 2 months and he was lucky to spot lavender shoots growing in the pots with the other plants and quickly transplant them.
Henry Lim 's customized lavender soil recipe :
His formula consisted of 1:1 pebbles and compost, mixed in with crushed egg shells (boiled, dried and egg membrane removed). He did not used the medium that came with Paris Garden kit. He said lavender soil need to be well drained, a customized mix of aqua-clay, compost and crushed boil egg shells work for his plants.
Erin Lee's Lavender Journey :
Germinating lavender seeds need patience, they may take up to 2 months to see tiny sprouts and then seedlings grew very slowly as well.
Erin watered her lavender every 2 days and only when top soil felt dry. They love the sun.
Shirley Ooi's lavender journey:
Lee Michael's lavender varieties (January 2017) –
Michael had successfully rooted and grew various types of lavenders from cutting. He used cactus soil mix and advised NOT to add fertilizers for these plants. To encourage a bushier lavender plant, he cut off the top of lavender after the cutting had established itself.
Kelvin Ho's first attempt at germinating lavender seeds yielded 75 seedlings! First sprout spotted in 14 days (2 weeks) and subsequently more seeds also germinated. 🙂 A lavender fan, Kelvin was determined to have lavender lined his corridor and has done extensive research and experiment to enjoy this success story to share.
He experimented with various soil mix to find the best one to germinate lavender seeds better. This is his recipe –
Kelvin Ho is no longer a novice where lavender plants are concerned! 🙂 Slowly his lavender corridor garden dream is a reality in 2017. This is his update –
Other Observation – Perlite with peat moss did not work well for lavender seeds. None of his seeds have germinated in this mix so far (May22 2016, Kelvin Ho) . In addition, Florabella soil is not suitable for lavender.
Cher Keng Heng's Lavender Germination method yield results in 2 weeks instead of 2 months! The lab where Cher Keng Heng grew his plants are 22 degree Celsius, 24/7, very ideal cool temperate environment ! 🙂
May 10 2016 – As Cher Keng Heng grew (and experiment) most of his temperate plants in ideally cool controlled environment, I was completely shocked when he shared pictures of his lavender plant from a local nursery –
More than a few gardeners had shared the same tale. Lavender plants will wane and start dying one week after purchase. On closer examination, the source of the problem seem to be root rot.
Initially we thought that changing the soil immediately may prevent this from happening but if the rot had already set in, it may not helped the plant much.
The best solution seem to be starting afresh with propagating clean (not brown or black part) stems for rooting. For nursery plants, do prepare cutting ahead instead of waiting till problems appeared.
Helen Tan advised to change water every 3 days or when water is murky to prevent root rot during propagation.
Second method (rooting in soil) –
I chanced upon Sthh Sthh's lavender cutting success on May 17 2016 from Urban Farmers (Singapore) group and very kindly, he agreed to share his tips again :
Sthh Sthh's method –
- Cut 3 to 4 inches of green soft stems, just below leaf nodes
- Remove lower 1 inch of leaves
- Plant in well drained sterile soil (no compost or organic stuff)
- Water deeply once, check how he does it in the rosemary post!
- Place under morning sun
- Observe for one week
- Soil base is same for rosemary and thyme ( or use Cactus soil)
Sthh Sthh think that his variety is Goodwin Creek Grey, (Lavandula dentata x L. lanata) and this variety is more hardy as they are able to withstand a bit more humidity and heat. Characteristics are silvery-grey, toothed-edged leaves, and long flowering stalks.
Once the stems have roots and for future lavender plant care, Regina Fok suggested the following guidelines for lavender plants in the tropics.
Tips on Lavender Plants Care in the Tropics – ( advice from REGINA FOK, USA)
- Water once every 3 to 4 days, only when top soil felt really dry or when the whole pot felt really light weight. This is how to tell when its time to water lavender plant.
- Use a syringe, filled with maximum 30 ml of water for lavender plant. Around the sides of the pot, dispense 5ml dose in 6 parts.
- Exposed to morning sun only
- Air-conditioned nights if possible
- DO not use ice
- Do not let lavender pot sit near where it can be rained on
- Cactus soil mixed with perlite and some compost can be considered as an ideal medium
Where Regina lived in the States, her summer time can be as warm as 38 degree celsius, with high humidity. At night, the temperature will slipped to 25 degree celsius (our normal air- conditioning environment).
Disclaimer – While the solutions above suggested by Regina Fok, work for most lavenders suffering from heat shock or transplant, it may not be a solution that cured all ills for lavenders in Singapore. After all, there are many reasons why lavenders failed in Singapore. An example is fungus from our high humidity which also adversely affect its well being. There is no cure for this, gardeners can only try to prevent this from occurring.
For a comparative study of how lavender seeds germinated in a cooler climate versus Singapore based data, Regina Fok has once again volunteered her time and data with us.
Regina Fok (USA) decided to test how young lavender seedlings fared in the natural outdoor environment. She planted one pot outdoors and one pot indoors. Her temperature outdoor ranged from 29 degree Celsius daytime and 15C at night. From the observation here, it seem lavender grow better outdoors than protected from all elements indoors :
Regina Fok, based in USA, shared how lavender thrived in their natural environment. Hopefully, this knowledge from a hands on gardener, will helped us adapt our environment for these lovely plants.
4 Tips to grow lavender well (Regina Fok) –
1. Lavender hates high humidity but love the sun and heat.
2. Soil should be sandy, loamy and well drained. PH level needs to be neutral to alkaline.
3. If possible keep the plant within 20C to grow well. With a lower temperature, the plant can tolerate drought and the chill keeps the humidity out.
4. Its very important to keep the top soil dry to prevent root rot. Water only when top soil feel dry to touch.
My 2 cents worth of advice, do consider rosemary soil and care for lavender as well. In addition, to line the pots' base with rocks or pebbles to drain water out quickly.
Terence Low from Naked Greens and Sharon Eng advised to add more sand to soil. This aid drainage.
Guanster Guan's tip on how to choose healthy lavender from nursery and customize ideal soil mixes.
As lavender germination and growth are very slow in our weather, many gardeners do give up after a few months. For lavender fans, its never a question if they are willing to wait and try numerous times until they learned how to grow lavender in Singapore.
Its a quest worth seeking, as lavender smells wonderful, and if we get to harvest fresh ones at doorstep, in spite of the many challenges, why not? 🙂

My 1st Blog – Why I started travelling
Exciting, my first blog.
I wanted to give a bit of background as to what made me start travelling and that would be my mum.
My mum was 52 when she was diagnosed with terminal cancer and she died 18 months later aged 53. A conversation from that time has always stood out to me, mum said that she wished she hadn't been scared of flying and that she had actually seen more of the world (she never flew after I was born). At the time of the conversation mum was too sick to travel abroad and it really stuck with me that life is too short and that we don't know how long we have got, so we need to go out and enjoy life as much as we can and do what we love and not have any regrets, to never look back and say I wish I had done…..
