In Docker 1.9, they added support for creating standalone named Volumes. Now with Docker 1.10 and Docker Compose 1.6's new syntax, you can create named volumes through Docker Compose.This is great for creating standalone volumes and easily connecting them to different directories in different containers as a way to share data between multiple containers. On a much larger scale, it also allows for the use of Docker Volume Plugins to do cool things like Flocker is doing (help run stateful containers across multiple hosts).docker storage volume docker-volume
VTK is an open-source software system for image processing, 3D graphics, volume rendering and visualization. VTK includes many advanced algorithms (e.g., surface reconstruction, implicit modelling, decimation) and rendering techniques (e.g., hardware-accelerated volume rendering, LOD control). The JavaScript implementation remain a subset of the actual C++ library but efforts will be made to easily port or compile native VTK code into WebAssembly to better blend both world. The origin of VTK is with the textbook "The Visualization Toolkit, an Object-Oriented Approach to 3D Graphics" originally published by Prentice Hall and now published by Kitware, Inc. (Third Edition ISBN 1-930934-07-6). VTK has grown (since its initial release in 1994) to a world-wide user base in the commercial, academic, and research communities.3d visualization webgl medical scientific vtk paraview geometry point-cloud mesh gl-vis volume graphics paraviewweb

FFME is a close (and I'd like to think better) drop-in replacement for Microsoft's WPF MediaElement Control. While the standard MediaElement uses DirectX (DirectShow) for media playback, FFME uses FFmpeg to read and decode audio and video. This means that for those of you who want to support stuff like HLS playback, or just don't want to go through the hassle of installing codecs on client machines, using FFME might just be the answer.First off, let's review a few concepts. A packet is a group of bytes read from the input. All packets are of a specific MediaType (Audio, Video, Subtitle, Data), and contain some timing information and most importantly compressed data. Packets are sent to a Codec and in turn, the codec produces Frames. Please note that producing 1 frome does not always take exactly 1 packet. A packet may contain many frames but also a frame may require several packets for the decoder to build it. Frames will contain timing informattion and the raw, uncompressed data. Now, you may think you can use frames and show pixels on the screen or data to the sound card. We are close, but we still need to do some additional processing. Turns out different Codecs will produce different uncompressed data formats. For example, some video codecs will output pixel data in ARGB, some others in RGB, and some other in YUV420. Therefore, we will need to Convert these frames into something all hardware can use. I call these converted frames, MediaBlocks. These MediaBlocks will contain uncompressed data in standard Audio and Video formats.ffmpeg ffplay mediaelement video h264 mpeg codec audio media-playback ffmpeg-binaries volume audio-processing mp3 mp4 dotnet-framework xamarin

The Mindanao State University-College of Medicine (MSU-COM) is one of the state-owned universities in Mindanao that offers a Doctor of Medicine degree.
Apart from its remarkably good performance in physician licensure exams, MSU is also known for producing competent graduates. Added to that is the relatively very low tuition fee compared to other institutions.
MSU also was one of the first schools, which implemented the problem-based learning (PBL) method. It is also proud of its community medicine, which helps molds students to be compassionate practitioners in the future.
What are the requirements for application?
You would need to have the following to be able to apply:
- Evaluation Form from the College
- Transcript of Records, or Evaluation of Grades from the Registrar (for graduating student applicants)
- NMAT results (previous and/or latest)
- Application Fee of ₱500.00
- Two pieces 2×2 ID picture
- A good quality long brown envelope
What is the Evaluation Form from the College?
The evaluation form is a document containing the pre-med subjects required by the college. An applicant is not eligible to apply for the upcoming academic year without completing them.
The form is accomplished by the administrative officer based on the subjects reflected in the applicant's transcript of records or evaluation of grades.
What are the required pre-med subjects?
In order for the applicant to be prepared for the study of medicine, the college has required the following pre-med subjects to be reflected in the transcript of records:
- Introduction to Biology / General Biology
- Developmental Biology
- General Genetics
- General Microbiology and Parasitology (combined or separate subjects)
- Comparative Vertebrate Anatomy and General Physiology / Human Anatomy and Physiology
- Chem 15 (General Chemistry)
- Chem 45 (Biochemistry)
- Physics 11 and 12 (Introductory Physics 1 and 2) / General Physics
- Math 17 (College Algebra & Trigonometry) / Math 2 (College Algebra) and Math 15 (Plane Trigonometry)
- Statistics 33 (Biostatistics) / Math 31 (Elementary Statistics) and Methods of Research
- English 1 (College English 1)
- English 3 (Oral Communication)
- General Psychology / Introduction to Psychology
- General Sociology / Introduction to Sociology
- General Anthropology / Introduction to Anthropology
My course is not anything related to biology and pre-med course, can I still apply?
Yes, provided you have completed at least a four-year bachelor degree and have taken up the pre-med subjects the college requires.
What is the minimum CGPA, GPA or GWA of the applicant in order to be considered for admission?
The GPA containing grades for the pre-med subjects are computed separately from your CGPA.
Technically speaking, only the grades for these subjects will affect your GPA standing in the application and a minimum GPA of 2.00 or better is desired.
However, low grades, INCs, and failures, even in non-required subjects, are also noted.
What is the minimum NMAT rating required by the college? When should I take the NMAT in order to apply?
For the NMAT, a minimum rating of 45% is necessary for application. However, it is advised that you get a high score since your NMAT will be compared to the scores of other applicants.
NMAT results have a validity of two years so within that time the applicant may apply. The latest NMAT result that the college accepts is from the examination scheduled on the October-November period of the year prior to your intended application.
When does the application period begin?
Usually the application period lasts for about a month beginning in mid-February to mid-March. This is why NMAT results from the March-April examination period of the current year are invalid, as applications are most likely closed by then.
How much is the tuition fee of the college?
The tuition fee is ₱12,000.00 per semester and does not include miscellaneous and other fees which are approximately ₱3,000.00 per semester also.
What scholarships are available to prospective students?
The college is a partner institution of the Department of Health (DOH) which offers the DOH Pre-service Scholarship Program to qualified and deserving students.
Where is the MSU – College of Medicine located? Where should I send my correspondences/documents to the college?
The MSU – College of Medicine is located at 1st St., Doña Juana Subdivision, Pala-o, 9200 Iligan City. While in Iligan, it is a constituent of the MSU Main Campus in Marawi City.

عنوان مقاله [English]
نویسندگان [English]
"Entrepreneurial Aha! Experience" is a combinatorial approach from cognitive science, sociology and psychology to entrepreneurship, which we believe is a perfect view for extending Sarason's structuration view of entrepreneurship. Using the "social representation" concept, it provides novel understandings of structuration theory and clarifies the nature and process of structuration. "Entrepreneurial Aha!" argues that entrepreneurs create mental representation by perceiving external world, combine these mental representations to create fore-presentation (idea) of ideal social reality and try to externalize it through ventures. In other words, it is through social representation that entrepreneurs are influenced by opportunity and influence it by implementing the ideas.

Black Velvet Watercolor Brush Set
by Silver Brush
The unique blend of natural squirrel hair and black synthetic filament in Black Velvet brushes makes them ideal working tools for watercolorists, silk painters, and artists working with inks, dyes, acrylics, or gouache.
Squirrel hair holds large amounts of color and releases it with perfect control. By itself, though, squirrel hair is delicate, so it has been blended with a synthetic to resist wear and maintain a wonderful snap and spring. The soft blend allows multiple layer glazing without disturbing previous colors, yet it's firm enough to lift color with a gentle scrub.
Black Velvet brushes feature polished black ferrules, carefully fitted to gloss black handles, each with a distinctive silver neck band.
This set contains three brushes: one round (size 8), one script (size 1), and one oval wash (3/4 in.).

Logan Autry is a typical nine-year-old boy, except for one glaring issue. Logan is standing up to his California public school, citing his First Amendment rights after they banned him from attending because of one particular hat that he loves to wear.
Logan was ordered to remove his hat on Thursday, but since there wasn't anything vulgar or violent about the hat in question, Logan rightfully refused. His parents were called to pick him up at that time. On Thursday, the boy was made to leave the Powers-Ginsburg Elementary School amid controversy over his red "Make America Great Again" hat — signed by the presumptive Republican presidential nominee himself, a local ABC News affiliate reported.
Logan had worn the hat to school for several days in a row, even though his classmates picked on him and bullied him for doing so. The simple red "Make America Great Again" emblazoned hat made Logan a target, but he didn't care and still refused to remove it."I still want to keep my hat. It's not the hat that draws attention, it's just my personality that the other children do not like,"
"I still want to keep my hat. It's not the hat that draws attention, it's just my personality that the other children do not like," Logan told ABC News through tears. His red Donald Trump hat has now been named as the reason for him being removed from the school.
School administrators claimed that Logan's hat was causing them safety concerns because of the bullying against Logan, which sounds a lot like blaming the victim.
"The vice principal came up to me and told me to take my hat off because it brings negative attention from other students. And I said no a few times and then the principal told me again and I still said no and refused," Logan said.
Logan also says he wears the hat with pride. With a love of history and politics, the only person he feels content with running the country is Donald Trump. However, the Fresno School District is backing their decision.
"Our job as educators is to facilitate a safe learning environment where we encourage robust conversations of diverse and thoughts," the statement said. "We are proud that in this case, our school achieved that goal by allowing the student to wear his hat for several days. However, it is also our responsibility to take precautions when the discourse begins to impact our school climate and interrupt school operations."
Logan's last day of school is June 9, and he says he will continue to wear his hat. He refuses to comply and will not be silenced.
Logan Autry is only nine-years-old, but he understands the power of free speech is more important than offending others with a red hat, a lesson most Democrats have still not learned. His hat didn't make him a target — the situation was caused by the lack of tolerance in the students currently being conditioned by the liberal school system.
If they can blame their actions on an inanimate object, then they can continue to look down their noses at Logan, a kid who embodies all things American. Kudos to the young man for standing up for his rights at such a young age.

UPDATE: MAWC Ends Water Conservation Notice
UPDATE: MAWC Ends Water Conservation Notice
Temporary Repairs Satisfactory for Now
NEW STANTON (May 18) – The Municipal Authority of Westmoreland County lifted its Water Conservation Notice Thursday after damage from a May 14 power surge was temporarily repaired to the point that pump capacity and water tower levels have returned to near normal.
"We want to thank the customers for conserving when they were asked, and their cooperation while we made repairs," said Michael F. Kukura, resident manager of the MAWC.
The power substation at the Indian Creek Water Treatment Plant in Connellsville was damaged in a power surge May 14, and several high amperage switches and other equipment were destroyed. While those components have been successfully bridged – those repairs are not permanent. It may take some time for new parts to arrive due to the high power being handled at the substation.
Approximately 107,000 of the authority's 120,000 customers were affected, but can now return to use water as normal.
"The customers were very helpful, and prevented this situation from developing into a crisis, so we want to thank them for working with us to conserve," said Brian Hohman, business manager for MAWC.

>Analytics is the "science of analysis" i.e., dividing a large set of data into certain "themes" and understanding various relationships between these to make out some business sense and take it for strategic advantage or for efficient operations is the field of Analytics.
In olden days, data that used to be stored in the computers is predominantly "Human generated transactional data" i.e., when an transaction happens between a producer and consumer, the data related to such transactions was stored in the software systems. This is relatively small amount of data.
As the days progressed, various "machine generated events" like a customer's website views, different clicks, data from automated sensors (like RFID etc., ) and various system log events are being stored for analyzing the behaviors.
This post is to enumerate different mathematical models and their uses in the field of business and web analytics.
1. Descriptive models: Used to classify the data into different groups. For example deriving the age of a person based on the first driving license date. Determining the sex based on height and weight etc., Focus is on as many variables as possible.
2. Predictive models: Used to find the causal relationships between the themes of data. Focus is on specific variables. These models give a probability of a set of outcomes.
3. Optimization/decision models: Used to derive the definite impact of certain decision and optimize the result within a set of constraints based on the data.
PMML = predictive model markup language from dmg is the xml based standard that can be used to exchange the models across multiple supporting applications.
The trend is in-database analytics that brings the data analytics into the database core engine and databases that are specifically built for the purpose of analytics based on columnar storage that makes the database an "analytical database" instead of a mere data storage and retrieval engine.
Oracle has published a good reference paper on this subject that can be found here -Predictive Analytics: Bringing tools to data.
over and above the thematic analysis there is an increasing demand for spacial and temporal analysis of the data. The field of analytics will converge into a single set of tools where one can analyse the data using the slicing and dicing functionality on all the dimensions of themes, spacial characteristics and temporal analysis at the same time with loads and loads of machine generated data is not far in the future….
Recently, I came across this paper that presents a framework for thematic, spacial and temporal analytics that can be possibly combined with data mining option….

Year 8 Netball Team
After a strong season, the Year 8 netball team went to their annual netball tournament on Wednesday 16 March.
The improvement that the girls have made as a team is clear to see. They have a great attitude to training, support each other and have high expectations of themselves.
Our first game was against Kirkburton Middle School and although we had the majority of possession we struggled to convert this to goals. Kirkburton scored against us, but the girls did not capitulate and achieved an equalising goal in the last 30 seconds of the game. Our next game was a well deserved victory over Moorend before we played Huddersfield Grammar School where we conceded our only loss. The girls went on to draw the next three games and played extremely well throughout, making progress in every game they played.
Only the top two teams went through to the Semi-Finals and it was a tense wait to see where we were positioned out of the seven teams in our section. We had the same points as another school and so final position was determined by goal difference, resulting in us achieving a fantastic fourth place.
I am extremely proud of our girls. They have committed to training every week throughout the season and have worked very hard to improve themselves as individuals and as a team. Their attitude on and off the court is outstanding and they are fantastic ambassadors for our school. (Report by Mrs Ketteringham)

It's Lopchu, a 90-year-old tea brand that has won a dedicated, global following after enduring tough competition, including products from Tata Global Beverages and Hindustan Unilever.
Suparno Basu, a 33-year-old software engineer from Kolkata, has been drinking Lopchu tea since his college days. "My father has been buying Lopchu tea for years and I have got used to it. I need to drink a cup of Lopchu tea at least once in a day. I cannot go without it."Even so, Basu and others like him who enjoy their cup of Lopchu tea may find it increasingly difficult to buy the beverage. And there doesn't seem much that can be done to increase its availability.
The secret of the success of Lopchu tea may lie in the area where it's grown – an estate situated between Darjeeling and Teesta, at an altitude of 4,800 feet. It's believed that 95% of the tea bushes here were originally transplanted from Yunnan province in China.
The garden has about 226 acres under production and most of the tea is exported to Europe, the US and Japan. People say the word Lopchu has been derived from Lepcha, the inhabitants of the hilly areas of Darjeeling.
Lopchu has managed to make a niche for itself even among Darjeeling teas, which the Tea Board of India says are the "world's most sought-after." The cool and moist climate, the soil, the rainfall and the slopping terrain all combine to give Darjeeling tea its unique "muscatel flavour," according to the Darjeeling district website.
The Lopchu tea estate was under British control till 1954, when it was bought by SN Kanoria and GL Kanoria, cousins who were in the jute trade, a fledgling business in West Bengal at that time.
Subsequently, their sons, P Kanoria and CK Kanoria, started looking after the garden. Now, the third generation of the Kanorias — Rajesh and Sandip — are supporting the family business.
"The cool environs of Lopchu tea give it a delicate 'muscatel' flavour and a soothing, smoky taste," says Rajesh Kanoria, a software engineer from the Indian Institute of Technology in Kharagpur. "And our unique business model is that we are 100% packet tea and we try to maintain a unique blend for our teas." Lopchu tea is well known among the elite circles in Delhi. Retail outlets in the Capital see demand for Lopchu tea throughout the year.
The retail price of Lopchu tea ranges from Rs 300 a kg to Rs 1,400 a kg, depending on the variety. Lopchu tea is available in grades including flowery orange pekoe and golden orange pekoe and as black tea bags.
"Demand is huge for this tea from the upper class and upper middle class of society. But there is always a supply shortage," says Abhijeet Mazumdar, owner of Camellia Twigs, a retail outlet in Delhi's Indraprastha Extension. The Kanorias are aware of the shortage, but there's little that they can do.
Rajesh's father, 72-year-old Purushottam Kanoria, says that at best, the Lopchu tea garden can produce 100,000 kg of tea annually. Comparatively, India's tea production in 2013 was 1,200 million kgs.
"Generally, it varies between 80,000 kg and 90,000 kg. Even though there is huge demand for our tea, we sometimes fail to maintain a constant supply line. And moreover, this year has been particularly bad for Darjeeling planters as delayed rains have affected production," says the senior Kanoria.
The Kanorias don't have any immediate plan to come up with any new marketing initiative for promoting Lopchu tea. Rajesh, who juggles between his software and tea businesses, says Lopchu has a dedicated clientele and therefore there is no need to think about a fresh marketing strategy.
"We have our dealer and distributor networks and we continue to sell our teas through them only. We try to maintain a unique quality for all our grades," says Rajesh. SS Bagaria, chairman of the Darjeeling Tea Association, says that those who have developed a palette for Lopchu would like to adhere to the brand as it has a distinctive taste. This loyalty extends to overseas customers.
"There are buyers from Japan who pay more for the postage to procure a kilo of Lopchu," says Purushottam Kanoria. "Harrods had approached us many times to procure our tea but they had told us they would sell the tea under their own brand name. We had never compromised on our brand name and we had refused to sell our teas to Harrods." The Kanorias don't have any immediate plans to expand their presence in the Darjeeling tea industry, either.
"We may not get the same quality tea as Lopchu. And moreover, there is no garden on the block right now. The cost of production has also gone up and so we do not feel that it will be a profitable proposition to acquire gardens now," says Purushottam Kanoria.

Transitioning from College to Career in 4 Easy Steps
(240 hits)
Growing up isn't simple. It can be hard to adjust to "life in the real world" after college. If you want to make the adjustment process a lot simpler and more enjoyable, however, here are various steps that can do you a world of good. This major life transition doesn't have to be so difficult after all.
Get Advice from Older Friends and Family Members
Advice can go a long way for people who are struggling to adapt to new stages in life. That's why it can be so helpful to seek counsel from people who have "been there and done that." Talk to friends who are a couple of years older than you and who have gotten their careers on track. Talk to successful family members who are thriving in work and beyond, too. You may just get some invaluable insight.
Get Support from Your Peers
It can help to seek guidance from people who have experience. It can be just as comforting to seek support from individuals who are in your exact same boat. Reach out to peers who are in your shoes. It can be nice to know that you're all in this together. If you realize that you're not alone, you won't feel as crazy. You'll all be able to let off steam together as well.
Rent a Storage Unit
Moving on after college often involves relocating to a brand new town or city. If you want to make the transition smooth and seamless, it can be a good idea to rent a
storage unit
that can safeguard your possessions. Search for storage facilities that are reputable and clean. It can be nice to look for centers that are equipped with climate control as well. You want to keep your belongings in tip-top shape as you transition to the next phase of your exciting existence.
Read Career Books
Reading can expand your mind and horizons. It can provide you with tips that can get you on track to achievement and fulfillment, too. Visit libraries and bookshops to look for books that focus on career success. Search for books that delve into subjects that involve "coming-of-age" and dealing with major changes as well.
Adapting to a new existence can be thrilling and intimidating at the same time. If you want your transition to be rewarding and smooth, you have to take action. Reading can be a big help. Sharing your feelings with others can be cathartic, too.

Retail's Other Problem: Too Few Clerks in the Store
Macy's, J.C. Penney and others have cut jobs even more than they have closed stores
Many of America's biggest retailers, under assault from Amazon.com Inc., have been slashing staff even faster than they have been closing stores, a dynamic that has left fewer clerks and longer checkout lines at remaining locations.
Despite operating roughly the same number of stores as it did a decade ago, Macy's Inc. has shed 52,000 workers since 2008. At J.C. Penney Co., workers have disappeared twice as fast as department stores. That has led to an average of 112 total Penney employees for every store today, down from...

The Problem of Growing Rhododendrons from Seed
by M.J. Harvey – February 2002
The seed ecology of rhododendrons is that they produce very large numbers of very small seeds. Why is this? The answer is that they occupy a particular niche in the forest.
Take the horsechestnut. It has a huge seed that weighs around 12 gm. dryweight. This mass represents a lot of starch to provide energy for the growing seedling. By the way, the starch is protected from being eaten by animals by a generous admixture of the intensely bitter saponin aeschlin. This large seed, given a suitable site can quickly produce a deep root and a strong shoot without the need for much initial photosynthesis. The starch represents maternal care. (Who said plants didn't have maternal care?) These seedlings can then, given a chance, become forest giants. They are one of the emergent, canopy species.
Contrast your rhododendron seed. No, I have not weighed one. Say a single seed weighs 1 mg. for the sake of comparison. Not much maternal investment there – "You're on your own son." But by the way of compensation there are huge numbers of seeds that get blown hither and thither in the wind. Why? Well the rhododendron is exploiting the understory niche. The seeds are being sent out to find a gap in the vegetation - some damp patch of substrate where another plant recently died or toppled over. In these very precise habitats rhododendron seeds can germinate, put out their tiny leaves and start to photosynthesise. Their motto is 'photosynthesise or die'. If the site is too dark they can't capture light energy, and die. If the site is too exposed, windy or sunny, they also die because without the 12 gm. of starch they can't get a root deep down in a hurry.
I called rhododendrons 'Understory Shrubs'. Anyone seeing Peter Wharton's January slide show from the NW Yunnan border would have been impressed by the 60 foot specimens, growing in some cases horizontally from a cliff.
So folks, please try growing rhododendrons from seed and don't be disappointed if they die. You might say they are pre-programmed to die unless they find themselves in a very narrow band of conditions.

The self-storage facility organization is ironically a flourishing marketplace in an overall economy that is certainly even now wanting to get better from economic downturn aftershock self storage hk. The sector advocacy group Self-Storage Affiliation stories that self-storage is among the speediest expanding authentic estate enterprises throughout the world. During the U.S. by yourself, there are actually above two.three billion sq. feet dedicated to private storage – far more than plenty of space for all Americans to actually stand all for the exact time under the roof of the overall self-storage area. Here are several a lot more interesting things to grasp about self-storage.
How did everything start?
The first publicly documented self-storage compartments hail back to ancient China the place underground pits ended up accustomed to retailer and protect foods. While in the Center Ages, the British presented "crating" expert services for noblemen and dignitaries who ended up from property for extensive amounts of time. The crates ended up retained in guarded stables and were being offered by bankers. Although the prototype with the contemporary self-storage models only emerged while in the mid-20th century inside the U.S. with rows of pre-fabricated metallic garage models rented out to persons who needed further space for storing. Considering the fact that then, self-storage has advanced where today you'll find reportedly more than 50,000 amenities while in the U.S. owned and operated by additional than twenty five,000 business people.
What are the most typical factors why folks use self-storage facilities?
The number one rationale offered by most people who lease out a self-storage unit is insufficient storage in your own home. An incredible the greater part of those that avail of self-storage units are actually owners where by one in ten U.S. households is claimed to hire a self-storage unit. This will likely seem strange at the outset, but when you are taking into account the astronomical progress in use and retail profits then the market increase is pretty simpler to appreciate.
Other motives involve shifting to your new residence or renovating the house, trying to keep commercial stock (well known amongst eBay sellers along with other tiny organizations which simply cannot pay for large warehouse areas) and storing worthwhile assets and documents.
What do persons hold in self-storage services?
Quite possibly the most widespread things which persons set into storage include:
1. Furniture: couches, dining tables, beds
2. Appliances: stoves, refrigerators, washers, cooling and heating models
three. Electronics: Television, aged pcs, audio equipment
4. Collector's goods together with other useful possessions: antique home furnishings, unusual and pricey artwork, jewelry, collectible objects for instance old coins and booklets of stamps
5. Important files and memorabilia. Family members photographs, land titles, marriage certificates, writers' manuscripts and many more

Our large garden is truly Miranda's happy place. We practice organic growing practices and welcome organized chaos into our beds, allowing many vegetables to bolt and flower to provide food for native bees. We love the native pollinators and try to provide plenty of food and habitat for them; we also host Queen Bee Apiary each summer. The soil is fueled by rabbit manure, compost and cover crops. We save many of our seeds and choose local producers like Adaptive Seeds for the seeds we do purchase. You won't find chemicals here, just lots of biodiversity and delicious food.
This page will continue to be a work in progress, just like our gardens! Check back occasionally to see what's new.
Our garden is our main source of food in the summer and we grow plenty of extras to can or dehydrate for pantry storage and hopefully get good enough yields to share the bounty with our limited CSA. Occasionally the gophers and voles decide the 'extras' were all for them, so every season is a gamble.
Listed below are the varieties we are growing this season. Many were started by seed, a few purchased as plants from local growers. Many of our seeds were saved from last year's garden, others were purchased from our favorite seed supplier Adaptive Seeds. I'll indicate next to the variety if the seeds were purchased from Adaptive (AS) or Territorial (T). No initials are seeds we saved from last year, which were most likely originally sourced from AS.
Want to share our bounty? I offer limited 'harvest baskets' through the summer to local veggies loves to pick up on farm or have delivered to Corvallis area. Contact me to inquire about being part of our small network of produce buyers!
Stay tuned for "Varieties for 2020" Varieties currently listed are from past seasons
Peppers: We picked up around 16 starts from Crossroads Farm out of Eugene: Giant Marconi (our favorite for stuffed peppers), Habanero, Serrano, Poblano, Paprika, Pimiento, Padron. Peppers we started from seeds: Bulgarian Carrot, Super chilli (these two were saved from our own plants which were not kept away from each other, which means they are some wierdo hybrids. They'll be hot, but they might look funny!), Gypsy *AS, Early Jalapeño *T ARGH to the garden symphalans and moles! We have lost about a third of our pepper plants to pest and it's only June. Next year we'll be starting all our seeds and planting only 3-4 varieties to ensure we get any yield from all the varieties.
Tomatoes: We started all our tomato seeds this year (with the help of Malinda from Bermudez Farm) from seeds we saved last year. Our original plants came from Teal Creek Farm. Jory (our favorite canner!), Stupice (the favorite at market), Paul Robeson (our favorite for flavor), Carbon, Pruden's Purple, Opalka, Striped German.
Zucchini: We LOVE zucchini around here. I toss it into just about every meal while we have it fresh, sell some at market and dehydrate or feed the ducks what we can't get to eating right away. Dehydrated zucchini is great tossed into just about any dish as you're cooking and is a great source of green veg in the winter months. We grow Mutibile zucchini *AS and will always only grow this variety: super productive all season long, very thin and tender skin, never tough, never seedy.
Potatoes: Every year with potatoes is an experiment. This year we discovered that potatoes are the 'cure' to Garden Symphalyns so i'm sure we'll be popping potatoes into every garden from now on. This year we sheet mulched a new bed, added some store bought soil, rabbit manure and straw and picked up seed potatoes from Old Mill and Irish Eyes. Varieties: Red Pontiac, Purple Majesty, Yellow Fin Nuclear.
Beans: We grow our own dry beans here (a challenge!) and grow plenty of snap beans for eating fresh, selling at market and pickling into drool worthy Dilly Beans. This year we are trying Arikara for dried beans and Labrador for the snaps. Both from Adaptive Seed.
Greens: We could eat kale every day, so we plant a lot of it. This year we are growing "Dazzling Blue Lacinato" *AS which really is dazzling! We also grow rainbow chard for market and as feed for the ducks.
Brassicas: Broccoli is a challenge here as we have a healthy underground population of garden Symphalans. We tried it this year anyway: Pirachicaba from AS. Much more reliable is the kohlrabi. Awesome as a snack raw or sliced thin in a gratin. We grow "Superschmelz" *AS and enjoy it normal kohlrabi size or HUGE. Cabbage is always a staple and this year we're growing Primax *AS and think it is the cat's pajamas in terms of rigor in the garden.
Garlic: I love growing garlic and have a usually thriving crop of softneck and hardneck. This year has been frought with underground beasts (pocket gophers!) so my yield will be much lower than normal. Sadly this means no garlic will be for sale at market. I grow Nootka Rose, Russian Red and a few varieties of no-longer-remember-the-name hardnecks. All are grown using seed i've saved year after year for the past 4 seasons.
Onions: Trying a mix of long storage onions this year plus a handful of Walla Wallas stuffed into garlic gaps: Patterson, Red Bull and Borettana. Patterson lasted us until late winter last year and Red Bull is touted to store up to 9 months! The Borettana is a cute, flat little onions which i will braid. Can't wait to try these varieties from Territorial this year!
Cover Crops: Working with our soil is a challenge, so we use lots of cover crops between our vegetable rotations. Daikon radish is an edible favorite that mines deep into our hard soil to break it up. Other favorites include: sudangrass, buckwheat, berseem clover, forage peas, fava beans.

First Lutheran Church Welcomes Northshore YMCA Totes-to-Go Program
The program provides prepared food & groceries to families in need throughout the Northshore area. In April 2019, this YMCA program began using the space that was recently used by the Living Truth Chinese Lutheran Church. A small group of YMCA staff and volunteers meet weekly to assemble 30 Totes and 35 Fuel Packs for delivery to over a dozen schools.
In addition to collecting food donations for Hopelink, the Social Ministries Committee is also collecting donations for the YMCA Totes Program. This is another opportunity for First Lutheran to provide nutritionally acceptable and safe foods to children and families in our Bothell and Northshore community. Please look for the YMCA Food Donation Container in the Narthex Caring Corner. Find the list of suggested food items here or in the narthex. For more information, please contact Kathy Konieczka, Donella Robbins or Roger Steinke. Please help and donate!
College Scholarships Available to FLC Members!
If you are in college or college bound, please consider applying for a scholarship from the First Lutheran Church Endowment Fund. Scholarships are available for attendance at Lutheran colleges, universities and seminaries. Application forms for the 2019-2020 school year are available from the office or online.
All applications are to be submitted to Dawn Bastin (email@example.com) by May 1, 2019. Awardees will be notified by the Endowment Committee. Please call Dawn with any questions at 425-471-8084.
FLC has permit parking. Parking in downtown Bothell has become a huge issue for the church parking lot. To protect the safety of our preschool families and ensure adequate parking for our many activities parking will be by permit only. Please be sure to stop by and pick up your permit as soon as possible.
First Lutheran has opened an Ameritrade account to allow FLC to accept donations of securities.
A charitable contribution of long-term appreciated securities — i.e. stocks, bonds and/or mutual funds that have realized significant appreciation over time — is one of the most tax-efficient of all ways to give. This method of giving has become increasingly popular in recent years because of two key advantages:
· Any long-term appreciated securities with unrealized gains (meaning they were purchased over a year ago, and have a current value greater than their original cost) may be donated to a public charity and a tax deduction taken for the full fair market value of the securities — up to 30% of the donor's adjusted gross income.
· Since the securities are donated rather than sold, capital gains taxes from selling the securities no longer apply. The more appreciation the securities have, the greater the tax savings will be.
