NEW SMYRNA BEACH – Fashion comes in all styles and sizes. From the elegant and the sophisticated, to the practical, whimsical, and yes, even the silliest. But no matter what was worn, the models wowed the audience during the Girls Night Out fashion show that is a part of Christmas on Canal.

Chapter 5 Administrative Law
Learning Objectives
After reading this chapter, you should be able to do the following:
- Understand the purpose served by federal administrative agencies.
- Know the difference between executive branch agencies and independent agencies.
- Understand the political control of agencies by the president and Congress.
- Describe how agencies make rules and conduct hearings.
- Describe how courts can be used to challenge administrative rulings.
From the 1930s on, administrative agencies, law, and procedures have virtually remade our government and much of private life. Every day, business must deal with rules and decisions of state and federal administrative agencies. Informally, such rules are often called regulations, and they differ (only in their source) from laws passed by Congress and signed into law by the president. The rules created by agencies are voluminous: thousands of new regulations pour forth each year. The overarching question of whether there is too much regulation—or the wrong kind of regulation—of our economic activities is an important one but well beyond the scope of this chapter, in which we offer an overview of the purpose of administrative agencies, their structure, and their impact on business.

Archie Shepp - Jazz Performer, Composer, Teacher, Tenor-sax, Bandleader, Dramatist/Playwright, Poet, Pianist, b.1937, Fort Lauderdale, FL - Shepp is an American jazz saxophonist. Shepp was born in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on May 24, 1937, but raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where he studied piano, clarinet and alto saxophone before focusing on tenor saxophone (he occasionally plays soprano saxophone).

Prevention of violence
Each year, more than 1.6 million people worldwide lose their lives to violence. For every person who dies as a result of violence, many more are injured and suffer from a range of physical, sexual, reproductive and mental health problems. Violence places a massive burden on national economies, costing countries billions of US dollars each year in health care, law enforcement and lost productivity.WHO works with partners to prevent violence through scientifically credible strategies that are conceived and implemented in relation to causes at the levels of the individual, family, community and society.
New method to assess how ready a country is to tackle child maltreatment
WHO's Prevention of Violence Team has developed a new method to assess the readiness – or capacity – of a country to implement programmes to prevent child maltreatment on a large scale. Countries around the world and the international community have started to mobilize to address this issue. However, critical to the success of these efforts is an accurate assessment of the readiness of a country to tackle the problem. There are two options when using this new method, called the Readiness Assessment for the Prevention of Child Maltreatment (RAP-CM): a rapid assessment, using a short questionnaire administered to key informants or a full and detailed assessment, which requires a small research team to carry out.
Adults and children with disabilities at much higher risk of violence
Children with disabilities are almost four times more likely to experience violence than non-disabled children, according to a systematic review published in the medical journal The Lancet in July 2012. Another systematic review on violence against adults with disabilities, published earlier this year, found that overall they are 1.5 times more likely to be a victim of violence than those without a disability, while adults with mental health conditions are at nearly four times the risk of experiencing violence. Factors which place people with disabilities at higher risk of violence include stigma, discrimination, and ignorance about disability, as well as a lack of social support for those who care for them.
Prevention activities
- Child maltreatment
- Intimate partner and sexual violence
- Elder abuse
- Collective violence
- Youth violence

Gilbert Paul JORDANhttp://www.murderpedia.org/male.J/j/...lbert-paul.htmThe Alcohol Murders"
A.K.A.: "The Boozing Barber"
Classification: Serial killer
Characteristics: Alcoholic - Rape
Number of victims: 8 - 10
Date of murders: 1965 - 1987
Date of arrest: October 23, 1987
Date of birth: December 12, 1931
Victims profile: Women (Native American prostitutes)
Method of murder: Alcohol poisoning
Location: Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
Status: Sentenced to fifteen years in prison in 1988, but that was reduced to nine years on appeal. Released 1994. Died on July 7, 2006
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilbert...elong_PredatorGeneral Criminal Background
Jordan, a former barber, was linked to the deaths of between eight and ten women between 1965 and 1988; he was the first Canadian to use alcohol as a murder weapon. Jordan's lengthy criminal record started in 1952 and includes convictions for rape, indecent assault, abduction, hit and run, drunk driving and car theft.[2][3][4]
In 1976, Jordan was examined by Dr. Tibor Bezeredi as part of a court proceeding. Dr. Bezeredi diagnosed Jordan as having an anti-social personality, defined by Dr. Bezeredi as "a person whose conduct is maladjusted in terms of social behaviour; disregard for the rights of others which often results in unlawful activities".[5]
Jordan is considered a serial killer as he was linked to the deaths of between eight and ten women, but was only convicted in the manslaughter death of one woman.[6] His victims were Aboriginal women in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside. Typically he would find women in bars, and buy them drinks, or pay them for sex and encourage them to drink with him. When they passed out, he would pour liquor down their throats.[7] The resulting deaths were reported as alcohol poisoning and police paid little attention, because some of his victims were alcoholics. Although the newspapers often described the women as prostitutes, not all were involved in prostitution.[6] Jordan was known for drinking more than 50 ounces of vodka each day.
Alcohol as a Weapon
The first woman known to have died by alcohol poisoning while in Jordan's company was in 1965. As would become a pattern, a switchboard operator named Ivy Rose was found naked and dead in a Vancouver hotel. Her blood alcohol level was 0.51. No charges were laid.
Court proceedings show "he sought out approximately 200 women per year for binge drinking episodes covering the period from 1980 to 1988. He was also looking for sexual gratification."[5] Further, the Crown provided evidence that Jordan was linked to the deaths of six other Aboriginal women. Similar fact evidence showed Jordan had been with the following women at the time of their death:[9]
1. Mary Johnson, November 30, 1980, at the Aylmer Hotel, Blood alcohol level: .34
2. Barbara Paul, September 11, 1981, at the Glenaird Hotel, Blood alcohol level: .41
3. Mary Johns, July 30, 1982, at 2503 Kingsway (his barbershop) Blood alcohol level: .76
4. Patricia Thomas, December 15, 1984, at 2503 Kingsway (his barbershop) Blood alcohol level: .51
5. Patricia Andrew, June 28, 1985, at 2503 Kingsway (his barbershop) Blood alcohol level: .79
6. Vera Harry, November 19, 1986, at the Clifton Hotel, Blood alcohol level: .04
On October 12, 1987, Vanessa Lee Buckner was found naked on the floor of the Niagara hotel after a night of drinking with Jordan.[10] There is some debate regarding the victim. Some sources indicate that she was a white woman, not a heavy drinker, nor was she a prostitute.[8] However, in official court records describe Ms. Buckner death as the result of Jordan "...supplying a lethal amount of liquor to a female alcoholic, who died as a result."[11] Ms. Buckner had recently lost custody of her newborn baby, who had been born with a drug dependency. She "was an alcoholic and a taker of various kinds of drugs."[9] A month after her death, another woman, Edna Shade, was found dead in another hotel. Jordan's fingerprints were found and linked to Ms. Buckner's death.
After being questioned, Jordan had not been charged with any crime related to Ms. Buckner's death. However, police initiated surveillance on Jordan. Between October 12 November 26, 1987, police watched him "search out native Indian women in the skid row area of Vancouver. On 4 different occasions they [the police] rescued the woman involved before she too became a victim." Those women were:[9]
1. Rosemary Wilson, November 20, 1987, at the Balmoral Hotel, Blood alcohol level: .52
2. Verna Chartrand, November 21, 1987, at the Pacific Hotel, Blood alcohol level: .43
3. Sheila Joe, November 25, 1987, at the Rainbow Hotel, Blood alcohol level: unknown
4. Mabel Olson, November 26, 1987, at the Pacific Hotel, Blood alcohol level: unknown
According to the court records, police listening outside the hotel rooms heard Jordan say such things as:
"Have a drink, down the hatch baby, 20 bucks if you drink it right down; see if you're a real woman; finish that drink, finish that drink, down the hatch hurry, right down; you need another drink, I'll give you 50 bucks if you can take it; I'll give you 10, 20, 50 dollars, whatever you want, come on I want to see you get it all down; you get it right down, I'll give you the 50 bucks and the 13 bucks; I'll give you 50 bucks. I told you that. If you finish that I'll give you $75; finish your drink, I'll give you $20...[9]
This similar fact evidence was important in the 1988 trial. Jordan was tried before a judge alone. Justice Bouck found Jordan guilty of manslaughter in the death of Ms. Buckner.[9] He was sentenced to fifteen years in prison, but that was reduced to nine years on appeal.[12]
Jordan served six years for the manslaughter conviction. After his release, he was placed on probation which restricted him to Vancouver Island. In June 2000, he had been charged with sexual assault, assault, negligence causing bodily harm and administering a noxious substance—alcohol.[13] In 2000, Jordan attempted to change his name to Paul Pearce.[14] At the time, a name change in British Columbia did not require fingerprinting or a criminal check. After the loophole was closed, he dropped the application.[14]
Jordan was arrested again, in 2002 for breach of probation because he was found drinking, and in the presence of a woman while in possession of alcohol. He was found guilty and sentenced to 15 months in jail, followed by three years probation and strict conditions.[13]
However, on August 11, 2004, he was arrested in Winnipeg for violating that probation order for an incident at the York Hotel in Swift Current, Saskatchewan, August 9, 2004.[3] He had been identified as being a party to binge drinking with Barb Burkley. Ms. Burkley was a long term resident of the hotel and had a serious drinking problem. Ms. Burkley was taken to the hospital by her friend and hotel employee, Cathy Waddington, after finding Ms. Burkley in very bad condition. Ms. Waddington identified Jordan as being there, but he was acquitted of those charges in 2005.[15] Upon his release, police issued a public warning.[16]
Gilbert died in 2006
Police warning
On February 3, 2005, the Saanich Police Department issued an alert to warning the public to be cautious of the recently-released Jordan:
JORDAN, Gilbert Paul, age 73, is the subject of this alert. JORDAN is 175cm (5'9") tall and weighs 79kgs (174lbs). He is partially bald with grey hair and a grey goatee. He has blue eyes and wears glasses. JORDAN is currently in the Victoria area but has no fixed address. JORDAN has a significant criminal record including manslaughter and indecent assault of a female. He uses alcohol to lure his victims. JORDAN's target victim group is adult females. JORDAN is subject to court ordered conditions including: - Abstain absolutely from the consumption of alcohol. - Not to be in the company of any female person or persons in any place where alcohol is being either consumed or possessed by that person or persons. If you observe the subject in violation of any of the above conditions please call the Saanich Police Department at 475-4321, 911 or your local police agency. If you have questions concerning the public notification process please contact the BC Corrections Branch at 250-387-6366.[16]
[edit] Cultural impact
Jordan was the subject of the 1997 Canadian television program Exhibit A: Secrets of Forensic Science in an episode called "Dead Drunk". The program described the forensic work used to convict him in 1988.[17]
A dramatization, The Unnatural and Accidental Women was written by Vancouver playwright Marie Clements and performed in, among other places, Buddies in Bad Times Theatre in Toronto (2004). In the play, the writer focused on the story of the victims in an attempt to redress the failure of the news media to do so.
Marie Clements later wrote a script for the movie Unnatural & Accidental which premiered at the 2006 Toronto International Film Festival.[18]
Jordan and his crimes served as inspiration for the first several episodes of Da Vinci's Inquest. The crime series, set in Vancouver, portrayed a serial killer using alcohol as a murder weapon and stalking prostitutes. The portrayal departed from the facts by having the killer die before he could be arrested; he was murdered by one of his victims' brother, tipped to his identity by a detective.[19]
the name of the show that re enacted crime was Exibit A

Upon further reflection, I believe the real reason for the sudden interest in my health, appearance and vitality has more to do with the fact that my career has taken a nosedive than Re-Boyfriend's absence.
Perky's victory in the Battle of Who Is More Important Between the Two of Us was long suspected. (Despite her blistering New York accent, which one would think to be AT LEAST a handicap.) It was confirmed today when I brought lunch into a meeting she was actually attending. (And then dropped the paper plates. And subsequently had to pick them up. With everyone watching.)
My days are now generally spent doing bitchwork and talking to the office slacker, who has watched Zoolander and Wedding Crashers more times than me.
Fortunately, I have no desire to have my boss' job, an indication that throwing Perky out of the way to race along the career path would probably not have been all that satisfying anyway.
Unfortunately, this is the career path I am on, and so it is a bit disheartening to be head-butted off the road.
For lack of any real progress in the office (or any real progress for which I can actually take credit as opposed to having my words repeated and mangled by Boss in company wide meetings), I have turned my restless eye to health and well-being. Everyone needs a project.
I sense this one will not last, especially since I ate a large oatmeal cookie, a package of Snackwell's cream cookies and a bag of M&Ms for lunch. And I just agreed to go for drinks after work with the aforementioned slacker co-worker.
New project: Update my resume. Though I do not get the feeling that being a twenty-something in the workforce is much fun anywhere, I am confident that I could find a job of equal misery that would give me considerably more money. Then I could be miserable with a closet full of cute shoes and Marc by Marc Jacobs clothing. Which is not real misery at all.

I suggest looking into writing, which has been mentioned many, many times by others as well. Publishing, however, doesn't pay much unless you 'make it big'.

There are a few literary agents on Blogger: Miss Snark and Pub Rants to name two.
Writing is like any other industry-- you have to work hard, have something unique, and know the right folks. Don't forget, most writers have "real jobs". However, you do have an enjoyable voice. Go for it if that's what suits.
On the other hand, my mother is retiring this Friday at the ripe age of 49 from a job she loathes. She got her 25 years, half pay, and kick ass benefits though and is embarking on a second career.
The main thing: figure out what makes you happiest and then figure out how to make money doing it. A great book: What Color is Your Parachute?
Good luck, whatever you decide. - 6:12 PM

If you don't write, then you should at least make sure that the bitch work you do isn't with a competitor (i.e. Perky). Good luck!

STOP THE SPIRAL!!! Here's a fun project you can do after you've had cocktails with slacker. Pull out old magazines and cut out pictures of who you would like to be, places you'd like to go, things you want to accomplish. Paste on a page - it's you! It's your mosaic of what you want your life to be, sometimes you first have to see it. - - No, I haven't been drinking - - yet!

Screw "Marc" by Marc Jacobs. Make enough for "Marc Jacobs." Unless you just like Marc better, and considering it is pretty AMAZING... then that's also a great decision. Half of my day is scheming about how to afford M.J. However, I am also an actress... and I'm doing shit FOR FREE (FOR FREE!) all the time. The road to M.J. is paved with tears, my friend. Keep the M.J. hope alive. I'm right there with you.

Not knowing exactly what "bitch work" it is that you do for your company, makes it a bit hard to comment.
All I can say is this:
Find something you love doing and do it!
That way, not only will you enjoy going to work everyday, you will want to succeed more at it.
I should take my own advice I guess.... - 10:42 PM

CB, a job is a job is a job. Just make sure you get dental coverage.
- Alejandra said...
See, I don't think a job is just a job. I don't make very much...don't make very much at all actually, but I enjoy my job. I like the people i work with, it's a flexible office, the work is fun, and i have time to blog and read blogs and comment on blogs. And I have a flex pay card which covers my BC and contacts every month, now that's pretty handy. IT would be nice to afford new Manolos, instead of consignment ones, though
- You Don't Know Me said...
Do. Not. Quit. Your. Job. To. Write. I read you all the time and that is not meant to be a reflection on your writing skills, but writing don't pay the rent. Seriously. Unless you got TONS of friends in the biz and they can shuffle your stuff to the top of the pile, you're S.O.L. And frankly, the blogger book deals are going to come to an end once those books come out and the sales figures are low--take it from me. Don't work in publishing unless daddy can pay the rent and don't work for a tab unless he can pay for your therapy as well. Just find something you don't hate and get your fulfillment else where. You are not your job, no matter how hard this city tries to convince you otherwise. And please don't read career self-help books. Sweet Jesus. I don't give a shit what color my parachute is as long as it works.
Bitterly yours,

Yep, there are plenty of unsatisfying, yet decently paying jobs aroudn.

I thought of your workplace stories when I read this article earlier today. Enjoy!

I like the way you write.

sex in the city could have used your skill.
good luck with the job hunt. - 1:40 AM
- Rachellie said...
i agree with the peoples who suggested you should be writing, bec. you are durned funny. plus no one is writing 25+ comments on *my* blog, so clearly yr getting a rep. my friend forwarded me to you yesterday, and i told my co-worker today. y'see? am if u wanna continue down the admin path & write too, then executive assistants make way too much money.
- Rosey said...
The best advice was provided by Mr. "You Don't Know Me." Although the antics on your blog may suffer, you can definitely improve your lot, right now in NYC by shopping around for a job that pays more and sucks less. You can continue to write part-time and seek to get published if you choose while keeping your day job. Go for it.

Decent product for the price.
By David
from Hilton Head, SC
I needed a lateral file for archived "vertical files," articles and other materials for my research. Only that would fit in the office space I have and hold enough. This is fine for that purpose. I do not consider it of top quality, nor did I assume it would be when I bought it. But is perfectly adequate for the task and I am pleased with the purchase.

Once a sleepy Portuguese-speaking fishing village, Provincetown has reinvented itself over the years, first as an artists' colony and then as New England's gay playground. At the tip of Cape Cod, Provincetown is a favorite destination for gays from around the country, as well as around the world.
Quiet throughout the winter months, Provincetown's bustle returns at the end of May, when the crowds make their way to the seaside town for Memorial Day weekend. The height of the season is Carnival; an anything-goes festival in mid-August. The pace slackens after Labor Day, but the line- up of special weekends and bargain shopping draw visitors into the fall season. Winter here has its charm for those who prefer the peace and quiet of snowy sand dunes.
During the summer, Commercial Street is the place to be to watch the colorful parade of visitors who descend on this town, from drag queens dressed as Cher to gay men on the prowl to lesbian couples pushing strollers. The relaxed vibe is appealing to many straight families as well. However, they are most often day-trippers, meaning gay people pretty much have the place to themselves once the sun sets.
Provincetown might not be as wild as it once was, but there's still plenty of cruising on the street and in the dunes (keep an eye out for park rangers who regularly patrol the dunes). The benches at Town Hall Square have long been casual cruising grounds - there's even a webcam here. After the bars let out, people gather in the street in front of Spiritus Pizza for general revelry and last-minute hook-ups. The famous outdoor cruising spot, the 'Dick Dock' under the Boatslip's boardwalk, remains the late night place for anonymous thrills in the dark. Cops show up every now and then to shoo people away, but they regroup almost immediately. Check out Squirt.org for more on that.
This small town is only three miles in length, and just a few streets wide. Beckoning nearby are 4000 acres of rolling sand dunes, pine forest, freshwater ponds, and 30 miles of beach. For beach information see our events & experiences/ beaches tab.
Getting here
Unless you're driving to Provincetown, you will probably have to pass through Boston. Cape Air (800-352-0714) has frequent flights from Boston. The trip takes just 20 minutes.
There are two speedy ferry services from Boston, Bay State Cruises (877-783-3779) and Boston Harbor Cruises (877-733- 9425). It's not unusual to spot whales during the 90-minute journey.
Driving is a bad idea. Traffic backs up at the bridges, and the stretch of highway on the Cape is congested all summer, no matter when you leave. Also, parking is a headache once you arrive.
Getting around
Walking and biking are the best ways to get around, and few drivers will attempt these narrow streets thronged with pedestrians and cyclists, after the first try. Park your car at your hotel and join them. Ptown Bikes and Galeforce Bikes (among others) have rentals.
The Cape Cod RTA Provincetown Shuttle provides seasonal (May 25 - September 23) bus service between Provincetown and the Province Lands Visitor Center, Herring Cove Beach, North Truro, the Provincetown Airport, Race Point, and the Plymouth & Brockton Bus Stop at Dutra's Market. Also you may flag the bus down anywhere along the bus route. The fare is $2, or buy a $6 day pass. Buses have bike racks, but space is limited. See the website for a route map and daily schedules.
It's easy to figure out the lay of the land. Commercial Street is the mostly pedestrian thoroughfare that runs the length of Provincetown. Bradford Street, running parallel, is dominated by cars. From MacMillan Wharf, the central pier where the ferries dock, the town is divided into the East End and the West End.
East End. Dozens of art galleries line Commercial Street as it runs through the East End. It tends to be a bit quieter here, so many people pick guest houses in this part of town.
Center to West End. This is the heart of the gay scene, and it's packed with men from early morning to late at night. Most of the bars and clubs are located at the center, as are the biggest hotels. In the West End a more tranquil scene prevails, with easy access to both downtown and the gayest beaches.
Local Media & resources
The local newspaper, the Provincetown Banner has plenty of news about the town's gay community. It also lists arts events. The Cape Cod Times covers news of the wider local region, with events listings and reviews. Provincetown Magazine is another informative and entertaining read.
PTown.org is the gay-friendly website of the Provincetown Business Guild, with arts, services, dining, lodging and entertainment listings.
The Provincetown Arts Association and Provincetown Theater websites provide links to local arts and stage communities.
See the Ptown Bears website for upcoming events for the guys and their friends.
The Mates Leather Weekend website lists area events of interest to leather/ fetish men all year-round.
The Provincetown International Film Festival, with GLBT films on the schedule, takes place each June.
Fantasia Fair, is a week-long celebration of gender diversity, the longest-running annual event in the transgender world, each October.
For locations and website links to businesses listed below, see our Provincetown gay map & listings pages.
Provincetown's many guesthouses and inns cater to visitors of every budget. From simple rooms to cottages to whole houses, there are many options. Most are open mid-April to late October, but many have joined a growing trend of staying open year-round. Most have refrigerators and internet access; some have kitchens, fireplaces, and rooftop sun decks. A three to five-night minimum stay may be required during high season. Some places will arrange transport to/from the airport and ferry pier. The town is small enough to walk or bike anywhere once you're settled into your hotel.
If you have trouble finding a room at the center, try larger family-oriented motels at the eastern edge of town on Alt. Rt. 6, or those along Rt. 6 in Truro or Wellfleet. This will require driving into town for nightlife and restaurants, and the usual parking hassles. The up-side is cheaper, more flexible rates, and easier access to the amazing Ocean-side National Seashore beaches.

Ever more aware that this is taking way too long, I shall keep this short but sweet, and note that yes, I am indeed posting something while websites with far fewer hits than me (such as Wikipedia and Google) are protesting the evils of SOPA/PIPA with a blackout. Part of me feels like a scab crossing a picket line but then I think to myself no, I have to do this. I have to tell the world just how much I loved the costume design on Conan the Barbarian. The world needs this information. Without it, however would our civilisation cope? This is the kind of thing that the internet was invented for. Seriously! Tim Berners-Lee was just saying the other day how glad he was that he had the chance to read what I said about Green Lantern, though he seemed disappointed that I wasn't as enthusiastic as he was about Mark Strong's interpretation of Sinestro.*
Besides, if Congress goes ahead with its plan to give itself the power to censor great swathes of the internet in order to prevent citizen activism during times of social strife which are probably around the corner… erm, I mean, combat the ev0l of piracy, obvs… then I'd better get this shit up now because most of this post is made up of publicity photos and clips from YouTube and I'll have to "police" myself in future to make sure none of this stuff ever appears again. Thanks for ruining the best thing in the world, Overlords. Like you haven't done enough damage already.

Still more to come even after all of this excessive listmaking. Hey, I can't help it if I don't get a chance to write for the rest of the year. There was a huge build-up of opinion inside me and this is the slow release, like air leaking out of a zeppelin.

You are so lucky! I see this set going for like $600 on eBay. No thank you.
I only have the fashion. It was a gift from a dear friend.
I don't have hopes of getting the full set .
Hope you can get yours soon :)!!

Whatever snow is left on the ground after Friday night's storm should be washed away by the end of today according to the National Weather Service.
With a high near 51 most of the rainfall across our area should be done before the evening rush hour but we could get close to half an inch of rain according to the latest forecasts.
The rain could continue into tonight but not much precipitation is expected with a low of 37 degrees and eventually making for a clear night.
The clouds are expected to largely stay away on Tuesday with a mostly sunny day and a high temperature of 45 degrees before dropping to a low of 27 on Tuesday night.
Wednesday looks to be a mostly cloudy day with a high of 41. As of Sunday afternoon the National Weather Service is reporting at least a 50 percent chance of snow on Wednesday night with a low temperature of 30 degrees expected.
The forecast for Thursday calls for a high near 43 and a low of 30 with a similar forecast to end the week on Friday

I hope it does not snow on Saturday, February 16th. Rare Find Nursery in Jackson, NJ is having a Witch Hazel Festival that day that was rescheduled from February 9th due to the snow storm. The cost is $5 but you have to register in advance. The fee includes a seminar and light refreshments. They will be selling many different varieties of witch hazel shrubs in addition to hellebores, hardy cyclamen and other plants. As of this afternoon, there was still space available for the 1 pm session. These are hardy plants that bloom in the winter or early spring. They will be in bloom during the festival so you can see what they look like before you buy them.Rare Find Nursery has been around for many years. However I only found out about them last year through a friend who went to the Witch Hazel Festival. I subsequently attended their camellia seminar in March, followed by their azalea and rhododendron seminars. After that, I did a bog garden of pitcher plants in July---and I was hooked.

Very impressive Diana. It sounds like you must have a great garden.

Garlic, or Allium sativum, is widely used to help prevent or slow the progression of atherosclerosis, control high cholesterol and for blood sugar control, related to diabetes. Applied topically, garlic has been shown to kill fungi in experiments. Oral garlic supplements appear to repel insects. Use caution if you are taking blood thinners, as garlic may increase the effect of these drugs.
