9880 vs 9890
July 11, 2013, 07:03:14 PM »
Hi all,
I'm experiencing some problems with my 4880 which I've been using for about 4 years and have been considering a 44 inch model for my gallery for a while. With these new problems it seems I either need to spend to repair the 4880 now or invest now in something larger. I've been avoiding moving to the larger printer for a little bit for several reasons but mostly waiting to see if updated versions will come out in the autumn and avoiding what appears to be an unusual amount of reliability issues with the 9900/9890 models compared to their previous generation.
As it happens, a very lightly used 9880 has come available about a 3 hour drive away. I'm just waiting to hear if it still is functioning after being in storage for 3.5 years after having only gone through it's initial included charge of ink.
So my question is: what are the major differences in operating the 9880 vs the 9890/9900.
Here's what I can come up with from some searching and from memory for major differences:
-180 nozzles vs 360
-old paper cutter vs rotary cutter
-long metal rod paper holder vs new design holders which insert into each end of paper tube
-max 220ml cartridges vs 350ml & 700ml options (I go through maybe 1.5 sets of 220ml carts on my 4880/year)
-slower and louder printing vs faster and quieter
For those that have experience with both, is there anything major I'm overlooking. And would it still be worth getting the newer model given what appears to be mostly paper handling differences?
Given the amount of use I get out of my 4880 (ie reasonable use of 220ml carts, about 300 standard prints/year) it seems it might be worthwhile to consider the 9880. Especially if the price is low.

One other thing I just thought of. How is the 9880 at handling cut sheet media?
I got some more info on the printer.
It had to have a couple auto cleanings then a power cleaning to clear everything up. But nozzle checks are now clear.
Its done 150 prints
Its used just over 1700ml of ink
It comes with a full unopened set of ink which expired in 2010. Unknown size.
It appears to have a fair bit of expired ink in it now too.
Initially they were asking $3500 with the ink before they knew it was expired and before I informed them of the price of a brand new 9890 at $3800.
Any suggestions on what this might be worth?

I have a 9880, for which I gave $2000 about 9 months ago. It has a good bit more use on it (34000 CM) than the one you are talking about, but, it prints perfectly and has given me nearly no problems. I have to say that I likely could have driven a harder bargain, but, the guy was legally blind, liver transplant and living with his mother who is in her 70s. Just couldnt do it. Anyway just one of the 3 or 4 rolls of 36 canvas that came with the printer have already paid for the printer and then some. I got three spare paper spindles and a MK/PK change cartridge and also some 24 partial rolls of paper and canvas.
Small cut sheets load and print flawlessly. At this point I have not tried and large cut sheets.
So if it was me I wouldnt give more than about $1750 tops, unless there are a good bit of sweeteners involved.

I used to sell Epsons..
I would get this question frequently.
To me, here is the biggest deciding factor...
Are you running ANY matte materials? Like canvas, fine art paper, water color paper, proofing etc? If YES - then I would urge you to take a look at the 9890, simply because it has matte black & photo black on the printer.
The 9880 is a phenomenal printer, they both are really. However, the 9880 only has one black loaded in, at any given time. Meaning If you want to print photo paper, you need photo black. If you want to print ANY glossy or SATIN material, you need photo black.
The 9890 has BOTH inks loaded in the printer, making printing matte or gloss material very easy.
If you want to print matte materials on a 9880, you will need to buy an Epson Conversion kit, and a tank of Photo Black ink. It is a costly processes switching back and fourth and having to buy a NEW conversion kit EACH time you want to switch from glossy to matte, or matte to glossy materials.
To me, to be versatile and enjoy printing any type of material at will.... The 9890 is the way to go. Just my humble opinion.

That's one of the things I guess I knew of but forgot to list earlier.
I've never been a fan of canvas prints and so all my printing in the last 3-4 years has been on pearl or lustre photo paper with photo black ink. At this point I don't have any plans for printing matte. The one exception might be that if I get my 4880 fixed, it might be interesting to switch it over to Jon Cone inks and only use that for matte B&W's. There might be a market for that type of product also as there is a glut of wedding photographers here relative to the population. It's become a bit of a destination wedding location.
Regarding the pricing. I was beginning to think that $1800 might be a fair price considering it will cost me a day of my time and $110 in gas to go get it. Though they did say that they just want to get rid of it at this point so I might get away with offering less.
Not that I'm going to use it, but do you have to use a new kit
time you switch black inks?! I was under the impression that the kit was good for multiple uses.

9880 to 9890 differences, you've mentioned what they are, but don't under estimate their value. Printing speed is substantially faster. Paper loading, especially rolls is incredibly better, no long rod to deal with, easy and quick to change rolls. Size of ink cartridges is also a helpful for a couple of reasons. (you can also buy ink in 150ml size). First is price can be substantially lower per ml. Another nice feature is you can run the larger sizes in the colors that consume much more ink (about 50% of the ink on any print is either LK or LLK).
A couple of other features the 9890 has is HD Screening technology which may yield slightly better prints in some cases. Also, the auto nozzle check feature is available. Many have disabled it, but I find it actually works fine on my 9900.
That being said, the 9880 still prints exceptionally high quality prints, and if you can get it for a real bargain, is working well and has seen such little mileage it's certainly something worth considering.

Yes you can use the change kit multiple times. They will tell you when they are full or empty as the case may be.

Thanks for all the advice everyone.
They said they'd take $1500. I probably could've offered less. They originally said they just wanted to get rid of it as it isn't being used and is just taking up space.
That being said, they're having trouble getting osx leopard to see the printer and so they haven't been able to make an actual print with it just yet. They've just printed status pages and nozzle checks from the menu. If they do get a good print out of it I'll probably go to pick it up on Monday or Tuesday as my 4880 is exhibiting a very strange problem that Epson so far hasn't been able to diagnose. As it is I cannot currently get a good print of my best selling image, so I need a printer that can asap as it's getting into the busy season again.
I might start another thread here to see if anyone can help figure out what's going on with the 4880.

Just out of curiosity, what are peoples opinions on using expired inks?
It seems this printer will be coming with a substantial amount of ink that all expired in 2010.

Would anyone have any suggestions on how to get a 9880 to communicate with OS X Leopard 10.5 via USB? Or perhaps get it to print an actual test photo on photo paper without connecting to a computer
They can operate the printer from the control panel and print all the status pages and test pages, but they cannot actually connect to it with their mac to make an actual print. I use Windows and am not that familiar with OS X so any suggestions are ones I've found through googling. They seem to have tried nearly everything.
I've got my hands on a cheap windows 7 laptop and have the drivers on there which I can try once I get there. But 350km is a long way to go if it isn't working.
At this point the 9880 can print all kinds of test pages and nozzle checks, but I can get clean readings like that from my 4880 currently, none of which can show the problem I'm having with it. So there could very will be a multitude of problems with this 9880 that the tests don't show, like paper feed issues, or suction problems, or pressure problems, or cutter problems, etc.
If anyone has any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.

honestly, it's as simple as downloading the correct driver from Epson and installing it.. maybe check for other drivers currently installed that might appear Epson, but are not.. and uninstall them first.

They've tried downloading and installing, using the disks and installing, all sorts of things, but the printer just doesn't show up when the drivers are installed or not.
I'd ask them to try uninstalling other drivers, but I just heard back from them and they're at the point of giving up having struggled with this all weekend unfortunately. So I guess I need to decide if I want to drive 3 hours to find out if I can get it working...

Thanks Wayne,
I passed that on to them, but haven't heard back, so they may have just given up as I told them I'd come to test it out myself.

I hope you are able to get it to work and I hope I didn't make light of the install problem, it's always been effortless here, for years, many Macs, many OSs, and many Epsons. Just wanted to add that though many have made a good case for the 9890 here, my 9880 has been the most problem free printer I've ever owned, from x600s through x900s. I think it was the first model with teflon coated heads, but before the more complex and finicky pressure systems of the x900s.

so i'm here now with the 9880 and my windows7 can see the printer but cannot communicate with it. I try to do a nozzle check but nothing happens at all with the printer. I can enter the driver dialogue and the lfp remote panel and when starting a command from there it says something to the effect of "cannot communicate with selected printer"
does anyone have any suggestions on what I could do? Is there a full reset somehow that i could do through the printers control panel.

So after problem solving over the phone with Epson, and running to the store to get a cross-over cable to test with, the printer cannot communicate through either the usb or ethernet ports. Which probably means it's a mainboard problem.
I just talked to the repair company and the part is $435.11 plus likely a minimum of $200 labour.
Bummer. I suppose since she just wants to get rid of it at this point, perhaps she'll just let me take it and pay for the repair myself.

Evita Information
About the Show:
Evita is the powerful story of a powerful woman: Eva Peron, social and political leader and second wife to Argentinian president Juan Peron. Her meteoric rise to fame and power and her acquisition of a dedicated following are depicted with a sweeping score (by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Time Rice) and brilliant staging to create an emotionally gripping show. The title role catapulted the careers of stage legends Elaine Paige and Patti Lupone, and many songs have become musical theatre favorites, including "Another Suitcase in Another Hall" and "High Flying, Adored." The ballad "Don't Cry For Me Argentina" in particular has become nothing less than a pop culture phenomenon.
Originally debuting in London on June 21, 1978 and on Broadway on September 25, 1979, Evita ran for 2,900 and 1,567 performances, respectively. It landed an Olivier Award for Paige and an impressive 7 Tony Awards, including the coveted Best Book, Best Score, and Best Musical. It has since played all around the world, and its Spanish translation has been very successful in Spain and Latin America. Evita experienced a second wave of popularity and achieved notoriety among the non-theatre-going public with the 1994 release of the film adaptation starring Madonna and Antonio Banderas. Order your Evita tickets today to get a glimpse into the life of a fascinating woman and experience this classic show live.
Plot Synopsis:
The curtain rises to reveal a cinema in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on July 26, 1952, where the people are watching a movie. An announcer interrupts with the news that first lady Eva Peron has died. The narrator, Che, comments on the sorrow that struck the nation and begins to tell Eva's story.
In 1934, at the age of 15, Eva meets and begins a relationship with the tango singer Agustin Magaldi. After she tags along with him to Buenos Aires, she sets her sights on becoming a famous actress and quickly dumps him. She then sleeps her way to the top, becoming a famous actress, model, and radio star. Meanwhile, a right-wing coup erupts and Juan Domingo Peron is introduced as a military colonel who is climbing up the political ladder. After an earthquake hits the town of San Juan, Peron appears at a charity concert, where he meets Eva. The two share a secret liaison and Eva tries to convince him that she could use her notoriety to help him rise to power. After she turns away Peron's mistress, she moves in with him and is thrust into high society, where she is dismissed by the upper class and the military leaders. In 1946, Peron launches his campaign for the presidency and he and Eva organize rallies to shore up public support. Meanwhile, Peron and his inner circle plan to eliminate anyone who opposes them.
Peron wins the presidency in a landslide victory. After he speaks to his "descamisados" (shirtless ones), Eva addresses her supporters and swears that though she once wanted only fame and fortune, her new goal is to help the people of her country. But fame proves a difficult thing to handle when Eva becomes obsessed with creating a glamorous image for herself in order to promote her and her husband's political success. The other world powers are unimpressed by her and though she does eventually start her promised charity work, controversy, including accusations of money laundering, tarnishes her reputation. Meanwhile, Peron's generals become fed up with Eva's interference in their operations and are especially annoyed when she insists on running for vice president. Is Peron's love and admiration enough to convince his advisors of Eva's value to their cause? A surprise illness may render the point moot as she struggles with establishing a legacy to her people. Get your Evita tickets today and see Eva's legendary story unfold to its dramatic conclusion.

My colleague Susan Kegley alerted me to a new study in Environmental Science and Technology (ES&T) that illustrates the absurdity of chemically-dependent agriculture — particularly the lengths we'll apparently go to keep the needle in. Scientists are actually studying injecting up to 32,000 lbs/acre of concentrated ammonia into the soil to counteract a fumigant pesticide's ozone-depleting effects.
A couple months ago, corporate industrial ag interests in Minnesota attempted to pull the plug on the premier of Troubled Waters: A Mississippi River Story, a documentary about the impacts of input intensive agriculture on the Mississippi and the Gulf of Mexico. It backfired, resulting a huge public outcry and a bigger audience for the film than it otherwise would have had. This week history appears to be repeating itself in Canada.
DDT ceased being the "go to" tool in the malaria fighter's tool box more than 50 years ago when mosquito populations started developing resistance and when better, safer tools began to come online. It's still available today, but the chemical's usefulness is extremely limited. Now, new research shows that in some circumstances spraying DDT is not only ineffective, but it may actually increase malaria transmission.
In my family Thanksgiving means cranberries, sweet potatoes, and green bean casserole. So I decided to check these foods out on WhatsOnMyFood.org. The results weren't exactly appetizing. Here's what the USDA found, after washing:
Green beans: 44 different pesticides with the most commonly detected being acephate, a highly neurotoxic organophosphate insecticide. One sample had 200 micrograms of it per 100 gram serving (slightly more than one cup). That may not sound like a lot, but it's twice the EPA's level of concern for children.
The New York Times is reporting that Stephen Johnson, head of the Environmental Protection Agency under Bush, has joined the board of directors of Scotts Miracle-Gro. The company is the world's largest producer of chemicals for the lawn care and garden sectors.
Not that this should come as a shock — we've long noted the cozy relationships between agencies like EPA and the companies they're supposed to regulate. And the EPA under Johnson was particularly friendly to the pesticide industry. Some examples:

1/4 cup
all-purpose flour
1 (10.5 ounce) can
beef broth
2 tablespoons
white sugar
2 tablespoons
soy sauce
1 pound
boneless round steak, cut into bite size pieces
1/4 teaspoon
chopped fresh ginger root
1 clove
garlic, minced
4 cups
chopped fresh broccoli
This is very good, and I like good, spicy Chinese food. Some people criticize it for not being perfect restaurant quality, but c'mon, all we want is a very easy and quick recipe and this fits the bill. And it tastes great. HOWEVER, follow many of the other reviews and increase the spices, or it will be bland. I doubled the garlic, doubled the ginger (used ginger powder), and added 2t garlic powder (easier than minced garlic). Also added 1/4 t of red pepper flakes (1/2 t for some heat)and reduced sugar(used brown sugar) by about a third. Also doubled the amount of beef stock which still made a nice thick sauce -- otherwise it is thick mud if you use the recommended amount of stock. Cook the meat quickly and remove and add again when sauce begins to thicken so meat doesn't overcook. These really are the recommendations of other reviewers but I thought I'd save you the time of looking at all the reviews. I'll definitely make this again.
This was okay but nothing special. Per other reviewers, I added chopped onion, additional garlic, bamboo shoots and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes. Still, little taste and won't be making again. Thanks but no thanks.

Tastey recipe, just needs a little tweeking. Here's what I changed/added: I used 2 tbsp Brown sugar, 4 tablespoons soy sauce, 1/2 tsp ground ginger, 1/2 chopped large onion, 1/2 tsp black pepper, 1 (14 oz can beef broth), and also ended up using 1/4 cup flour to thicken the sauce. I cooked the meat with the broth mixture, instead of seperatley, the meat turned out perfectly. I will make this again, kids and husband loved it, no complaints, just needs something.
I gave this recipe five stars because it is an excellent recipe. I made some changes to my taste, but that's because I like food somewhat spicy. The first change that I made was to cook the round steak until tender before adding vegetables. I also added one sliced onion to the simmering the meat. I also doubled the marinade and the sauce based on previous comments and also because I think I had more meat than the recipe called for. I added chile oil, chili garlic sauce and substituted one teaspoon of sesame oil for oyster sauce. My brocolli beef stood up to the best Chinese restaurants. My husband and I both enjoyed this recipe. It's easy to prepare and a must try. I don't think you can really go wrong because you can add anything you like and it would probably still be good. It has an excellent foundation to work with.
My family and I LOVE this recipe. It's very yummy and satisfying. I do make a couple of changes, though. I use sirloin steak because it's more tender. I use a bit more garlic and finely chopped ginger and I add sliced onions to give it that almost-Chinese-restaurant taste. I also separate some out for the kids and then add red pepper flakes to the remainder for my husband and I and our spicy palates! Very yummy!
I am a tired, cranky, hungry college student with a microscopic kitchen and very little time to spend on cooking. This recipe was everything I was looking for - quick, easy, very yummy and healthy. After reading the reviews, I used 14 oz of broth, ground ginger, sirloin, and threw chopped onion in with the beef. I also used frozen broccoli, because I'm lazy. =) The sauce was perfect and was terrific over rice. I think this recipe could be easily adapted to accomodate whatever ingredients you have on hand - and I think it might freeze well (I'm going to make extra next time and try freezing the leftovers to see how it goes). Thanks so much - this one's going to be committed to my memory!
Wow this was great, I have been making beef broccoli for a while but it was always missing something...it was the ginger...the ginger added just what it had been missing and we loved it. Though I would have to say that after it cooks the chunks of ginger are a bit too much so instead I would use powdered ginger root or used bigger piecies of ginger and just remove it after its cooked. Overall this was a great meal that I am sure I will be making time and time again now.
EXCELLENT!! I must admit that this is the best oriental recipe I have come across! I listened to the advice of others in thier reviews and used ginger powder instead of the root. I also tripled the sauce and will do the same next time. It was great after I finished and me and my daughter loved it. Adding an onion while beef was cooking was a great idea also. Truly a favorite.

Comments On Jun 10, 2014:The XR80 is notorious for having a very hard clutch pull and my son would always complain about it and this would result in shorter rides and less seat time for me. After reading lots of reviews on Thumper Talk I purchased the Raptor Clutch lever over two years ago and it has been fantastic. The adjustable lever is awesome, it really works and I have had no problems with it. If you have a hard clutch pull I highly recommend it. As for people stating that the lever breaks when you wreck, all levers can break when you wreck unless you get the reverse folding levers. I have this on an XR80 which has seen many wrecks and it has held up just fine over the past two years.

The Executive Director (Regeneration and Development) has extensive delegated powers to make decisions and determines all applications other than where the proposal involves the following development;
Decisions on these applications are made by the Planning Committee at their meetings which are generally held every three weeks.
There is also a procedure (the call-in procedure) where elected members can require any other application to be determined by planning providing.ĀĀ The call-in procedure requires that two or more members notify in writing that they wish an application to be decided by Planning Committee by a specified date.Ā The procedure enables members to withdraw the call-in and the decision would be made by the Executive Director.
The applicant is entitled to make an appeal against any decision to refuse an application for planning permission, listed building consent and conservation area consent or against a condition imposed of planning permission, listed building consent and conservation area consent.
If you are aggrieved by the decision of your local planning authority to refuse permission for the proposed development or to grant it subject to conditions, then you can appeal to the Secretary of State within the following timescales.
If an enforcement notice is served relating to the same or substantially the same land and development as in your application, then you must do so within 28 days of the date of service of the enforcement notice, or within 6 months [12 weeks in the case of a householder appeal] of the date of the target date, whichever period expires earlier.
Appeals must be made using a form which you can get from the Secretary of State at Temple Quay House, 2 The Square, Temple Quay, Bristol BS1 6PN or online at www.planningportal.gov.uk/pcs.
The Secretary of State can allow a longer period for giving notice of an appeal, but will not normally be prepared to use this power unless there are special circumstances which excuse the delay in giving notice of appeal.
The Secretary of State need not consider an appeal if it seems to the Secretary of State that the local planning authority could not have granted planning permission for the proposed development or could not have granted it without the conditions they imposed, having regard to the statutory requirements, to the provisions of any development order and to any directions given under a development order.
Such rights of appeal do not apply to anyone who has an interest in a proposed development and/or who may have commented upon the application before the decision was issued.
If an appeal is lodged against a decision relating to a planning application that you have commented upon then you will be notified of the appeal and given the opportunity to make further representations directly to the Secretary of State. In the event of an appeal on a householder application that dealt with by way of an expedited procedure any representations made before the determination of the application will be passed to the Secretary of State and there will be no opportunity to make further representations.

When someone passes away, at their funeral the priest will usually say something that gives the idea that the deceased is in heaven. And a lot of people like to also give the idea that people who die are with Jesus Christ? For instance, say someone close to you passed away, chances are you've said something along the lines that give the idea that, that person is in heaven. Like "I know you are at a better place near Jesus Christ".
The reason for this is that the when people die, I know that we go to the world of the dead till the day that Jesus Christ will return. If people are already in heaven this means that there really isn't much reason for Jesus Christ to return because all those that believe in Him are already in heaven.
If Jesus Christ will return and all those that have faith in Him will be raised an be priest with Him for a thousand years, why make it as if people the deceased are in heaven?
It's hard to ask this correctly but I hope you get the idea of what I'm trying to ask

Top Eight Innovative Green Cars Debuting at Next Week's 2012 Paris Motor Show
Lexus LF-CC Concept
The Lexus LF-CC concept previews the next-generation Lexus IS and a new hybrid powertrain that will eventually be offered in the Lexus lineup. The LF-CC concept takes the design of the LF-LC concept that was unveiled earlier this year and applies it to a smaller rear-wheel-drive coupe. Under the hood the LF-CC concept gets a new 2.5L hybrid powertrain that combines a 2.5L four-cylinder engine to an electric motor. We can expect to see this new hybrid powertrain in the next-generation 2014 IS.
Smart Forstars Concept
Smart's current lineup only consists of the Smart fortwo, but the new smart forstars concept is proof that Smart is looking to expand its lineup. The Smart forstars concept is a two-seater just like the for two, but Smart describes it as a Sports Utility Coupe. The forstars concept is longer and taller than the fortwo, which means that there is more room in back for all your gear. Rather than power the concept with a standard gasoline engine, the forstars concept is powered by a 60 kW electric motor. One other cool feature is the integrated movie projector on the hood that will transform any area into an animated open-air cinema.

On Tuesday, voters will elect a new Congress, replacing the one that's had the lowest public approval ratings in the history of political polling. Thirty-three seats are up for grabs in the U.S. Senate, which used to be known as the world's greatest deliberative body, a place where difficult issues were carefully considered, and debated until a consensus or a compromise was reached.
Today it's known more for deadlock, dysfunction, and political gamesmanship; a body unwilling or unable to resolve the major issues of the day: jobs, deficits, taxes and how to allocate $1.2 trillion in automatic budget cuts set to go into effect January 1st. A number of respected senators have thrown up their hands and quit, and others are speaking out against an institution many think is broken. One powerful senator had this advice for the voters.

Although I have expressed in the past my skepticism about Google, I have a serious and honest question that occurred to me:
Google is spending millions (billions?) of dollars advertising and promoting its "Chrome" browser.
Actually let me simplify this question -- I don't want to get into a debate about true motives and conspiracies, so let me rephrase the question:
Why does GOOGLE say it is spending such huge sums to advertise and promote and try to get people to switch to their Chrome browser?
I honestly am curious about the answer to this question. They must be telling someone somewhere why they are spending such huge amounts of money trying to get people to switch to Chrome -- what are they saying the reasons are?

As to another point above, "the first generation since consumer religion"? I don't think so. I'm not sure I'm of the first generation. I gotta think that Aimee Semple McPherson, Billy Sunday, Bp Fulton Sheen, Robert Shuller (he started out by renting a Drive-In theater for Sunday services) and Oral Roberts might have made some contributions to consumer religion.
Precisely; I made the mistake of thinking this was all a recent development when i set out writing about this phenomenon; in fact it really is just building one what's been happening since Mason Weems in around 1790 (as described in Laurence Moore's excellent Selling God.)
There are some things that are new--new tools, new technologies, unprecedented market consolidation. More voices than ever competing for the church's attention and allegiance. New countersubversive tropes in advertising and media discourse.
What is new is the way imagery and symbolism of the cultural and political left are appropriated precisely as a means of avoiding substantive theological questions.
I like the way Andy is thinking: the importance of getting at the real critiques of the church and the real human needs can't be overstated. The phenomenon exists because it speaks to real needs and real problems. But my conviction is that fake counterculture/surface-level theological & eccelesiological dissent is not neutral but violently occupies the space once occupied by authentically humane culture and prophetic witness, the same way Lady Gaga crowds Tracy & The Plastics out of our consciousness.

Home Improvement Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for contractors and serious DIYers. It's 100% free, no registration required.
If the gap isn't too big, regular caulk will seal the gap between it and the wall. If you're using it at the top of the baseboard and can get it in the same color as the baseboard, you might not even have to paint it.
Spray foam maybe? They sell it at local stores here, I believe it's called "Great Stuff". You spray it in cracks and it expands to fill the gap.

There are several species of caterpillars called sod webworms that can be highly destructive pests. The damaging stage is the caterpillar or larval stage. Typical sod webworm caterpillars have a dark head. Their bodies are light brown or gray with dark spotting. Webworm-infested thatch has silken tunnels produced by the caterpillars. During the day, they hide within these webbed tubes, and at night they move out a short distance to feed. Sod webworms are typically about 2.5 cm (1inch) long when full grown.
The moths are small (1/2 inch long) and whitish-gray. They clasp or roll their wings close to their bodies when resting and have mouthparts projecting forward from the head like a snout. The moths are usually noticed when flushed out by a lawn mower or people walking. When disturbed, they fly in a jerky zig zag manner and quickly return to the grass to hide. Around dusk, they may be seen flying a few feet above the grass and dropping their eggs.
Life Cycle
The number of lifecycles per year varies among the different species of sod webworm, but in general there are 2 to 3 life cycles a year.
The webworms overwinter as young larvae a few centimeters below the soil line among the roots of weeds and grasses in silk-lined tubes. During early spring the larvae feed on the upper root systems, stems, and blades of grass. They build protective silken webs, usually on steep slopes and in sunny areas, where they feed and develop. In early May, they pupate in underground cocoons made of silk, bits of plants, and soil. About two weeks later, adults emerge. Larvae feed nocturnally for 3 to 4 weeks. Beginning in late May or June, moth flights may occur until October. The moths, erratic and weak flyers, live only a few days and feed solely on dew. They are active at dusk, resting near the ground in the grass during the day.
The eggs, which are deposited indiscriminately over the grass, hatch in 7 to 10 days. Young larvae immediately begin to feed and construct their silken tunnels.
The most severe damage occurs in July and August when the grass is not growing rapidly. During this hot weather, the larvae feed at night or on cloudy days.
Most sod webworms complete 2 or 3 generations each year, with approximately 6 to 8 weeks elapsing between egg deposition and adult emergence.
The first generation adults appear in June and the second-generation adults in late July and August. Historically, the second, generation larvae have caused the greatest amount of damage.
Damage generally becomes evident in late summer. The sod webworms feed on the upper root systems, stems, and blades of grass. The sod webworm feeding exposes the crown of the grass to the hot sun; thus, the injury is much worse during hot, dry weather. As the caterpillar grows, it can damage an area of lawn about the size of a softball. If the infestation is severe, the spots may develop into much larger areas.
Damage Control
First and foremost, it is important to ensure adequate fertility, a balanced soil pH and low soil compaction to encourage a robust lawn that will be able to tolerate some insect feeding.
Make sure you are mowing and watering properly as well.
There are a variety of control strategies, including the use of predatory nematodes, as well as conventional insect controls.
Overseeding with a mix of entophytic perennial ryegrass is another excellent strategy to prevent future sod webworm damage. The entophytic perennial ryegrass contains a naturally occurring fungi that deters insect feeding on the leaves.If you think you have a sod webworm problem, contact your local Nutri-Lawn and we will come out and diagnose the problem and recommend the best control strategy for your situation.

Fine Watchmaking and High Jewellery are Piaget's two traditional fields of expertise. This model unites the most emblematic watchmaking complication - the tourbillon, here in an even more impressive skeletonised version - with an original case set with diamonds. Just like the bridges that are also gem-set, the creation of this version requires exceptional expertise. This Piaget Emperador model presents the world's only gem-set skeleton tourbillon.
600D gem-set skeleton movement
The 600D gem-set skeleton movement is an ultra-thin hand-wound mechanical movement, adorned with the world's thinnest shaped flying tourbillon carriage measuring just 3.5mm thick. The visual effect produced by the flying tourbillon is accentuated by the presence of the stylised "P" of Piaget. The asymmetry of the design required meticulous adjustments in order to respect the balance of the whole. Like the 600S skeleton movement, its mainplate, fashioned in white gold, is drawn, thus revealing all the subtlety and complexity of its inner workings. Its exceptional design is extremely refined with a guilloché sunburst motif shining out from the centre of the carriage, reminiscent of the sun's rays and the divisions of time. In a genuine technical feat, the gem-setting of the ultra-thin mainplate in gold perfectly illustrates the unique and unparalleled dual watch and jewellery expertise embodied by the Manufacture Piaget. 160 diamonds adorn the mainplate of the 600D gem-set skeleton movement, whose screws are ingeniously hidden by seven sapphires cut into cabochons.

Walla Walla boomed to life in the mid-1800s on the dry, fertile soil of southeastern Washington, supplying gold prospectors on their way to Idaho and Montana with shovels, bacon, and whiskey. Its first storefronts were made of wood and hastily built, but they quickly gave way to brick and mortar, along with roads, schools, a prison, and the state's first bank. The early settlers grew wheat in the region's rich soil, as well as potatoes, corn, and barley. A few new industries sprang up alongside farming over the next century, including food processing and industrial manufacturing, but by the dawn of the 1990s, the economy had fallen into a doze.
While a tech wave pushed unemployment down to 4 percent in the nation at large, Walla Walla's jobless rate stayed above 7 percent for the entire decade. The city appeared to be following a path all too familiar in rural America, its population and economy stagnating as malls on the outskirts supplanted downtown businesses and crowded out the local character. If there was hope for renewal, it sprang from a vine: Walla Walla still had its soil, and the soil, a few enterprising locals had discovered in the late 1970s, could grow something a lot more lucrative than grain.
Wine made from grapes harvested from the corners of local wheat fields was impressing critics and signaling the potential to power the town's economy and create thousands of good-paying jobs. But to grow from a boutique enterprise to a full-scale industry, the region's vintners needed workers – and those workers needed specific skills.
Walla Walla Community College saw the opportunity to train those workers in a program tailored to the local wine industry's needs. The college's graduates populated the fields, wine laboratories, cellars, and tasting rooms that unfurled like tendrils across the county. As the industry grew, so did the city's tourism business, its restaurants, and its hotels. The number of wine-related jobs in the region nearly doubled over the past four years.
America's economy today feels as sleepy as Walla Walla's two decades ago. Middle-class workers were slammed by the financial crisis, their jobs disappearing, wages stagnating, and future uncertain. To put them back to work, the nation would do well to consider Walla Walla, which seems to have cracked the code on how to get mid-skill workers back into the labor force while revitalizing an economy.
If the country needs a model, this could be it.
An Idea Takes Root
Early settlers planted the first wine grapes in Walla Walla in the mid-1800s, but the industry never took off. Then, in the 1970s, a local machinist and a wheat farmer began making wine at home, started their own labels, and earned national acclaim for the wines produced by their now well-known Leonetti Cellar and Woodward Canyon. Other wineries followed. In 1990, Los Angeles Times writer Dan Berger called southeastern Washington "one of the most exciting wine regions in the world."
But the area had barely 20 wineries in the late 1990s. The limiting factor wasn't the availability of land or the nation's appetite for the region's wine; it was that making wine is difficult and requires workers with detailed training.
Winemaking involves constant decision-making, starting with determining when to harvest the grapes. The longer they ripen on the vine, the sweeter the grapes become. Once harvested, grapes are sorted to remove the damaged, underripe, or raisin-like fruit. Workers or machines remove the stems and press the juice from the grape. Yeast is added to ferment the juice, converting the sugars to alcohol. Both the temperature and the vessel in which the wine is then aged – oak and stainless steel are popular choices – influence the taste and style of the final product. Once the wine has matured to the winemakers' specifications, it is clarified and bottled. The process is not intuitive; workers need to be taught.
Steven VanAusdle had a hunch that Walla Walla Community College was the place to do the teaching.
In 1999, VanAusdle, the college's president, approached Myles Anderson, a longtime instructor at the college and owner of Walla Walla Vintners, with the idea for training students to work in the local vineyards. Anderson, who had co-founded his boutique winery in 1995, surveyed the handful of winemakers in the region. Only one of them had formal training in the craft, but all said that having trained workers would be immensely helpful.
The enology and viticulture training center the two men originally envisioned was modest: a small, metal pole building containing two classrooms, a wine production area with a press, crushing equipment, and a place to park a tractor. This was the vision they pitched to local business leaders in a series of biweekly lunches that VanAusdle hosted in the college's boardroom, in hopes of soliciting donations. The pitch worked. As money rolled in, the plans grew, expanding to a multimillion-dollar center for wine training.
