Concealed within the forest landscape of the Ozark Mountains in Arkansas, the acclaimed Thorncrown Chapel will celebrate its 35th anniversary this summer. Designed by E. Fay Jones, who was commissioned by retired schoolteacher Jim Reed, the 48 ft. tall chapel boasts 425 windows and over 6,000 sq. ft of glass, and it became widely recognized for its organic "Ozark Gothic" style when it first opened on July 10, 1980.

To mark the Thorncrown Chapel's anniversary, architect-turned-photographer Randall Connaughton from Atlanta began an ongoing photography series of the wood-and-glass structure last year in what he described is "an effort to add new depth to the visual record of Thorncrown Chapel and bring its transcendent experience to a wide audience."

Thorncrown is the backdrop to countless wedding photos, but according to the Chapel organization, Connaughton's snapshots are the "first professionally produced photos of their kind" since 1980 -- when those photos that first contributed to ...

Dividing Herbs
Plants are not cheap, and some nurseries are reluctant to divulge the easiest methods of quickly growing more from a single specimen. Wait until your new plants are well rooted and then plant them out in the garden.
Division by Cutting Up
Many small-leaved, spreading or matt-forming herbs can be easily multiplied by this method, which is best done in late spring or early summer when in active growth (Image 1).
Using sharp scissors, trim excess leafy growth from around the sides and lightly trim the top (Image 2). This is most easily done with the plant still in its pot. Compost the trimmings.
Carefully remove the pot (for washing and reuse) and slice or cut the root ball in half (Image 3). The bottom part can be discarded and composted as it is likely to be exhausted and root filled.
With this herb, the aim is to make plugs with a surface area of about 3/4 x 3/4 in (2 x 2 cm). By carefully cutting using scissors or a sharp knife it is possible to generate nine or ten good plugs (Image 4).
Fill and Label the Pots
Fill each pot with fine compost, firm down and make a hole with your finger about 3/4 in (2 cm) deep. Insert one plug in each hole, gently firm in place, and water well (Image 1).
Label each pot with the plant name and the propagation date (Image 2). Place in a bright, warm spot and keep moist. Results should be clearly visible within a couple of weeks.
Division With Forks
Carefully remove the herb from its pot or dig it up from the garden. Gently tease out congested roots and remove excess compost and soil (Image 1). Passing the clump under a running faucet can help.
Gently pull the clump apart with two kitchen forks, detaching sections of the herb, complete with their root systems (Image 2). Discard any portions that are diseased or damaged.
Avoid handling the root system and transplant at the same depth as they were originally (Image 3). Use containers of fresh, sharply draining compost mixed with vermiculite in equal parts.
Resuscitating Leggy Plants Before Division
Leggy plants need not be destroyed as they can be easily rescued to provide many new plants or one compact large one. Partially fill a clean, larger pot with compost and insert the herb (Image 1).
Cover the woody stems with compost up to the base of leaves. Gently firm and keep moist until new roots have developed. The plant can then be divided or its stems used for cuttings (Image 2).
Teasing Apart
Many pots of congested herb seedlings, such as basil, parsley, and chives, can be divided. The stems and roots can be very fragile, so break down the clumps into no more than half a dozen portions.
Next Up
Growing Herbs
Plants can be expensive and identical cultivars difficult to source, but increasing your own stock or growing new varieties is not difficult and is very rewarding in exchange for a small amount of financial outlay.
Growing Herbs From Cuttings
Many plants do not produce viable seed or, if they do, it is so fiddly or slow to grow that it is easier and quicker to take cuttings from your favorite plant. Always keep your new cuttings moist and in a warm, sunny place.
Potager Herb Garden
Groups of symmetrically arranged raised beds provide an easy and attractive way to cultivate a wide range of herbs without having to set foot on the soil. Learn how to grow your own potager herb garden.
An Herb Garden for Birds and Bees
Herbs are naturally aromatic and many are highly favored by honeybees and other insects. Learn how you can have your own garden perfect for birds and bees.
Growing Herbs From Seed
Get tips on how to easily and inexpensively grow herbs from seed.
Maintaining Your Herbs
Herbs are generally quite robust plants but appreciate a little attention. Leaving them to do their own thing is tempting, but many can get carried away if untended and spread themselves everywhere, so maintaining them is essential.
Hanging Herb and Vegetable Basket
Having a hanging basket filled with herbs and tomatoes is convenient and easy. Learn what you need to to have your own.
How to Plant an Herb Container Garden
Herbs have been grown all over the world for centuries for their flavor and goodness. Used in a variety of ways, such as our recipe for Herbal Sun Tea, you too can learn how to plant your own herb container garden.
Culinary and Medicinal Herb Gardening
Intricate hard landscaping mixed with lush plantings of culinary and medicinal herbs creates an effect that mimics some facets of the great and grandiose gardens from the last few centuries.
Create a Stunning Herb Container Garden
Make it easy to snip a handful of fresh herbs while you're cooking keep this fragrant herb garden on the deck or patio.

SQL and PL/SQL Articles
An Introduction to ANYDATASubmitted by Kevin Meade on Fri, 2007-05-25 15:55
My newest project needed to create a record keeping component that would keep track of balancing results over time. Sounded good, meant my customers could look back over time to see how things went, and it provided persistent evidence of good results. I figured on adding two routines (save/get) to a logging package already in existence to save balancing data via an autonomous transaction and retrieve it when needed. But in writing these routines it dawned on me that they would destroy the reusable nature of the logging package. Finally, a real life use for ANYDATA.

Dynamic creation of procedures in PL/SQLSubmitted by golak.sarangi on Sun, 2007-04-15 03:46
Every PL/SQl devloper must have tried their hands with dynamic SQl. Its an indelible part of oracle.But its generally used when we dont know at compile time about the object on which we are to perform the task. Suppose we want to insert data into a table but we get the name of the table during the execution of the procedure, in those cases we would use dynamic SQl with the table name passed as bind variable. Dynamic Sql is even used to execute DDl commands inside a PL/SQl block.
Point in Time (Nearest Neighbor Algorithms for SQL)Submitted by Kevin Meade on Mon, 2007-04-09 16:07
Been doing a lot with Historical Perspective lately. This has caused me to think a bit about the different variations of lookup that can be called a Point In Time query. My customers have found this discussion useful in understanding the details of how their report programs find specific rows in time. It is helpful to them because it provides an understanding as to why a specific row shows up on a report, and thus allows them to create more exacting definitions of what they want. Plus I find it is a good primer for newbies on staff to read so they don't make the same mistakes we made when we first started doing PIT queries. Maybe you can use it too.
Difference between two rowsSubmitted by Kevin Meade on Wed, 2007-03-28 16:15
One of my recent clients had a real data twisting process to validate. It didn't help much that their source had been corrected by many "ONE-SHOTS" over the years to deal with bugs, and accounting methods mandated by Act of Congress. What we needed was a way to see changes in a stream of related rows. In the end I created for them, a solution that allowed developers to pick two rows from a table at random and compare them in SQL with a result set returned showing only differences. Its a simple thing, but kind of neat, and very useful. So I'd like to share it with you.

World's Fastest Scalable JoinSubmitted by rleishman on Fri, 2007-03-02 18:25
One glance at my golf clubs would be enough to determine that I'm a terrible golfer. The pitching wedge is dirty. Nine-iron: dirty. Same with the eight, seven and six irons. Five, four and three irons are fairly clean. Woods: pristine. I play percentage golf (actually 110%, if you count penalties); I figure a 5-iron 150 meters down the fairway is a better bet than a 3-wood 200 meters into the trees.
So I've got a golf bag with 2 clubs that I paid for but never use. Madness? Well no, not really; but then I'm not paid to play golf. Can you imagine a professional golfer never using the driver? It wouldn't happen.
Can you picture an Oracle programmer never using the most powerful join method available? No? Get a mirror.

SQL is a goal-oriented language. Unlike procedural languages, we tell the database what we want rather than how to get it. Oracle's Cost Based Optimizer comes up with an execution plan that is hopefully the most efficient way to resolve the query, but for many reasons it will often choose a sub-optimal plan.
Timing an ALL_ROWS querySubmitted by rleishman on Thu, 2007-02-08 23:48
The Problem
A common complaint in SQL is that "it runs in 5 seconds in SQL*Plus, but takes hours in Production. Why?"
The reason is because SQL*Plus and most GUI SQL tools display rows as soon as they are fetched. In this way, you can

Taliban leader Qari Hussain? Killed in January 2008 … until he appeared at a news conference a few months later in Waziristan.
Al Qaeda official Mohammad Ilyas Kashmiri? Annihilated in a drone attack in September … but still able to give an exclusive interview in October.
Taliban honcho Hakimullah Mehsud? Wiped out in a missile attack in January … or was he?
Reports on Thursday that Mehsud was only wounded in that U.S. drone attack have prompted questions about the quality of intelligence emerging from Pakistan, a key U.S. ally in the war against al Qaeda and the Taliban.
Bruce Riedel, a CIA veteran currently with the Brookings Institution, described the latest reports as "a useful reminder that claims of the drones' successes need to be judged with caution."
"Intelligence is not a science experiment," Mr. Riedel said. "It is a difficult task of resolving conflicting data over time."
According to an Associated Press dispatch, four intelligence officers said Pakistan's main spy agency now thinks Mehsud is alive, citing electronic surveillance and reports from sources in the field, including from inside the Taliban.
U.S. officials privately have expressed frustration with the level of cooperation from Pakistani officials in the fight against militant groups.
Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) agency helped create the Taliban in the 1990s. Despite pressure from the U.S. to sever links with the militants in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, U.S. officials and analysts say some elements in the Pakistani establishment remain sympathetic to terrorist groups such as the Afghan Taliban and Lashkar-e-Taiba.
"Our close relationship with the Pakistanis is based on common interests, particularly our shared commitment to fight terror," said a U.S. official, who requested anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the issue. "They have people dying almost every day, after all. But there are some groups that at least some parts of the Pakistani state see differently than we do."
The official said that when it comes to fighting al Qaeda and the Pakistani Taliban, "there's really no daylight" between the Washington and Islamabad.
Still, the premature announcement of the death or capture of a terrorist is far from uncommon.
In January, Pakistani authorities announced that they had arrested Adam Gadahn, an American al Qaeda spokesman wanted in the U.S. on a charge of treason, in Karachi. Days later, they announced they hadn't arrested him after all.
While Pakistan's military has acted against al Qaeda and the Pakistani Taliban, both of which have carried out several attacks in Pakistan and are viewed as direct threats to the state, it has been less eager to take on the Afghan Taliban.
"To speak to the Taliban, you have to go through the Pakistani army and the ISI," Gilles Dorronsoro, a visiting scholar at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, told a meeting this week, confirming links among the Pakistani army, the ISI and the Taliban.

Calling Israel a Jewish state is about as racist as calling a Mosque racist. There's no default label that should be applied just because it's description doesn't encompass all people. Calling Israel a Jewish state reveals the purpose of the state given the history of many nations of the world, including Syria at a number of times that the author is likely ignorant of, and their treatment of Jewish people for one reason or another. The Boy Scouts, an organization for young males to learn certain values, is not a sexist group. The Hair Club For Men is not either. Black Entertainment Television (Or the B.E.T. channel) isn't racist simply because it targets a specific audience due solely on skin color and the culture associated with it. The Arab League, a group to promote Arab/Muslim issues, is not racist just because "Arab" is part of it's description and name. It's the treatment of other groups that would make all of these organizations earn their negative labels.

The beautiful Grindelwald and Swiss Alps
We have been privileged to visit Grindelwald a number of times now and it was great to return (www.grindelwald.ch). Grindelwald is a mountain village with views of the Swiss Alps all around with trains, gondola and cable cars heading off in all directions to high in the mountains.

European Hotel Transactions Reach New Peak in 2013, Up 39% Over 2012, Says HVS Report
March 3, 2014 8:21am
3 March 2014 - European hotel transaction volume in 2013 reached a new peak since the onset of the global financial crisis, signalling a comeback of the hotel real estate market.
The 2013 European Hotel Transactions article, published by HVS London to coincide with the International Hotel Investment Forum [Berlin, 3-5 March], reports that total transaction volume across Europe reached €7.7 billion in 2013, a 39% increase on the €5.6 billion recorded in 2012. The first quarter of 2013 accounted for more than half of the year's total transaction volume, totalling €4.2 billion.
"The European hotel industry has signalled positive trends throughout 2013. Most markets have seen occupancy and average rates grow with hotel transaction volume reaching its highest point since 2007. Financing for prime assets has become more readily available, both from domestic as well as overseas banks, changing the hotel investment landscape," commented report co-author Veronica Waldthausen, associate, HVS London.
The UK was, again, the most liquid market in Europe, with transaction volume reaching €3 billion, accounting for 39% of total sales, while The Netherlands had the greatest increase in transaction activity in Europe last year with volume totalling nearly €500 million, compared with €118 million in 2012.
Portfolio and corporate activity
Transaction activity was driven by portfolio deals in 2013, recording 48% growth on 2012 levels, totalling €3.3 billion. The most notable transactions included Constellation Hotels' acquisition of the Groupe du Louvre Portfolio (four hotels) from Starwood Capital for €700 million, ADIA's (Abu Dhabi Investment Authority's) purchase of 42 Marriott hotels in the UK for €640 million, and the purchase of the Malmaison and Hotel du Vin portfolio by private equity firm KSL for €234 million.
While portfolio transactions in the UK accounted for just under 60% of the total rooms sold in portfolio deals, this only translated into 48% of the volume, with an average price per room of €122,000. France ranked second at €1 billion, with a price per room of around €292,000. Germany's hotel investment market saw an increase in portfolio activity of almost 400% on 2012, reflecting the demand to invest in a stable and growing economy and where average daily rates have growth potential, given their low base compared with the rest of Europe.
Single asset transactions
Single asset sales accounted for 57% of total transaction volume in 2013, amounting to €4.4 billion, an increase of 32% on 2012. The sales price per room grew by 13%, averaging €208,000, reflecting an improvement in investor sentiment and the quality of assets coming on to the market.
In the UK, single asset sales totalled €1.4 billion, higher than any other European market. Some 60% of transactions were in the capital, including the sale of the InterContinental Park Lane to Constellation Hotels for €463 million (€1 million per room).
So who's buying?
In 2013 Middle Eastern buyers played a significantly larger part in the hotel transactions market. Capital from the region averaged some 12% of total volume in 2012, while in 2013 it reached 30%, growing in absolute terms from €646 million to €2.3 billion.
Transactions of single assets from high-net-worth individuals (HNWI) showed 70% growth in 2013 to €982 million, as investors, including those from the Middle East, displayed a growing interest in acquiring key assets throughout Europe.
Institutional investors, including sovereign wealth funds, accounted for approximately 42% of portfolio buyers and 19% of single asset purchasers. Hotel operators have shown an interest in purchasing strategic assets as part of their expansion plans, including Mandarin Oriental acquiring the Mandarin Oriental in Paris from their joint venture partner Société Fonciére Lyonnaise for €290 million, and The Dorchester Collection purchasing the Eden Hotel in Rome for €105 million from Starman.
Private equity companies such as Starwood Capital, Blackstone and AXA Real Estate Investment Managers demonstrate an on-going interest in hotels.
"We expect HNWIs and sovereign wealth funds from both Asia and the Middle East to continue to play an even more important role in the European real estate market as they seek to invest in prime assets," commented co-author Louise Fury.
"Additionally, North American investors - primarily private equity companies, real estate investors and institutional investors - will eye Europe as an attractive region with continuous growth potential and comparatively better value for money.
"The question now is whether there be enough assets available for sale to meet investor demand?"

This is simply paradise. Stonking good value and a lovely place to relax. This is a big house with three staying areas, although in fact, it only advertises two. Ours was the Bamboo Suite; one bedroom, which is huge. A four poster king size bed which is really comfortable. A large single, almost double bath with Jacuzzi. A separate walk in shower. A lovely kitchen lounge, dining area with a bar and stools, plus large table and chairs and couches everywhere. There is a separate toilet, and an office area too in a separate room. There are three A/C window units; two in the lounge and one in the bedroom. You have a shared patio with the other first floor people, and a separate B-B-Q grill on another small patio.
There is a large cool box for you to use. A big fridge with cold iced running water and a choice of ice or crushed cubes. Two large televisions in the main bedroom and lounge areas, and can be synchronized if you wish, or used separately. The T.V cable has loads of music stations too which we enjoyed. There is free wi-fi that worked very well.
Simply, we could live here, it was that good. Vicki and Tom, the owners live a few yards away and are on the spot if you need them. As you approach, don't be put off by the drive down to the house from the road. It is quite easy to navigate!
All 3 room areas share a washer and dryer, and there is an outside shower too!
Vicki and Tom are lovely folks. This place is ideal to 'do' the whole island from.
There is a great general store/gas station about 3 miles up the road. They have everything you could need including wine and spirits.
It is very remote and quiet here. If you don't wind down and relax here, you need to see a psychiatrist, and quick!

Recreation Lagoon
Recreation Lagoon
A sea wall designed to protect the entire site from a 1:100 storm surge captures a permanent body of water providing for swimming and other water-based activities.
Water is pumped in from the sea and the water quality is maintained through mechanical flushing and mixing. Mesh screens are in place to prevent marine stingers entering the Lagoon, and there is a stinger net providing more protection on the beach side. Further, lifeguards regularly drag and monitor the water and night spotting for marine stingers is carried out weekly. But, while the Darwin Waterfront Corporation takes all reasonable steps to ensure the Lagoon is free of marine stingers we can not guarantee this. A natural eco system exists including fish, algae, and Cassiopeia jellyfish. All play an important role maintaining a healthy environment. Large fish live in the Lagoon which at times have been known to brush up against swimmers. However, these large fish eat the jellyfish and we need them to keep the numbers down. If swimming with large fish isn't the experience you are after then we encourage you to swim on the beach side of the stinger net, they are kept out of this area. Of course we will always monitor the situation and ask that people contact us if they have any concerns. Large fish are removed periodically. As part of the Darwin Waterfront Corporation's management plan water quality in the Lagoon is checked regularly. Swimmers are not to go beyond the floating pontoon as that side is a construction site. Fishing and feeding the fish in the Recreation Lagoon is prohibited. The Recreation Lagoon is free to use and lifeguards patrol the water seven days a week between 9am – 6pm.
Like all outdoor activities the Wave and Recreation Lagoons are affected by weather. From October to May wet season storms can pose a danger. Both lagoons will be evacuated if lightning is close by. If thunder is heard within 30 seconds or less after a lightning flash, lifeguards will evacuate both lagoons. All swimmers and visitors need to leave the water and lagoon areas to seek shelter. The Wave and Recreation Lagoons will be re-opened once the storm has receded and thunder is heard 30 seconds or more after a flash of lightning. For everyone's safety listen to the lifeguard for instructions and obey immediately. Shade is provided at the Wave and Recreation Lagoon and everyone is encouraged to be sun smart by wearing hats, using sun cream and drinking plenty of water – which are available from various retail outlets around the Precinct including the Wave Lagoon kiosk. People are welcome to bring their own temporary, light-weight shade tents but nothing can be pegged into the ground without prior permission from the Darwin Waterfront Corporation.

Carmel Valley Ranch offers upscale getaway
Downtown Carmel, roughly a one-square-mile village, features small cottages, modest homes, upscale art galleries, plus both trendy and homespun restaurants.
Situated in picturesque Monterey County, Carmel is one of those places people designate as a "must visit." The main lure, of course, are the ocean views. Stunning might not be descriptive enough to characterize the rugged coastal scenery that makes Carmel and Monterey two of the most alluring destinations worldwide.
Ocean Avenue is the appropriately named main drag in downtown Carmel. Follow it heading west and eventually one winds up staring face-to-face at the gorgeous green-blue waters of the Pacific Ocean.
And if you care to do some star gazing, drop by the Hog's Breath Inn for a possible glimpse of famed Hollywood actor Clint Eastwood, its owner. He'll be the guy sipping on a beer or glass of wine, maybe even sitting next to an empty chair, having an imaginary chat with President Obama!
One more thing about eclectic downtown Carmel - it has no street numbers. Its early occupants were mainly artists who built their homes and preferred naming them rather than having numerical addresses.
Although rarely referenced, the official name for Carmel is Carmel-by-the-Sea, which seems pretty ridiculous. We get it, Carmel is by the ocean! Obviously the most well known and frequented areas of Carmel are its ocean enclaves. But there's actually a much less-traveled area of this famed California city that's also a great tourist destination.
The 'Other' Carmel
Literally tucked away in the majestic forests of the San Lucia Mountains is the Carmel Valley, a 20-minute drive from Monterey. Unlike the costal weather, which is often overcast and ensconced in a sun-blocked marine layer of clouds, the Carmel Valley receives approximately 300 days of sunshine and the temperatures are naturally warmer.
To totally escape the masses, visitors can choose one of the many lodges, garden inns and small accommodations that reside just off scenic Carmel Valley Road.
If the goal is finding luxurious accommodations, that can certainly be accomplished at Carmel Valley Ranch, a beautiful 500-acre upscale getaway. It's one of those places where you can park the car upon entering and never drive it again until check-out day.
One of the great things about a stay at the "Ranch" is it's a great spot for numerous activities or it can be a location to simply relax and be pampered.
- Golf, 18-hole, Pete Dye-designed course
- Guided or unguided hiking trails that double as running and walking trails
- Tennis courts, featuring seven hard courts and two clay courts
- Cooking classes
- Salt-water swimming pool (adults only)
- Separate family area, includes swimming pool, basketball courts, Bocce ball area
- Huge fitness center
- Organic garden area to explore
- Kids Camp
- Free S'mores every evening
Unique Activities
For guests wishing to be indulged, there's the newly built Spa Aiyana, which resides in a tree-lined area and is 10,500 square feet. There are three VIP double spa treatment suites with fireplaces, eight deluxe spa treatment rooms, and a manicure and pedicure salon. The Spa treatments costs between $51-$135, and the area is open from 8 a.m. until 8 p.m.
For unusual activities, the Ranch offers lavender balm and soap making, a yoga class in a hilltop forest, or try hopping on one of the six old-fashioned wood-plank swings, which hang from ropes attached to 100-year-old oak trees. It's one more reason to "hang out" at Carmel Valley Ranch.
And for something totally off-the-wall, try the property's beekeeping program, offered Tuesday and Saturday mornings.
The Ranch starts harvesting honey from its colony of Italian honeybees in early June. Guests can receive a hands-on experience, putting on protective suits for this educational experience about the habits of bees. If that's a little too close, visitors can observe from a distance through a plexi-glass window. The Ranch has more than 7,500 lavender plants spread around the property and estimates a harvest of 100 pounds of honey per year.
Scenic Golf Course
For golfers, the par-70 course is short (6,117 from back tees) and the mostly flat-land front 9 is an exercise in target golf with some penalizing holes. However, the hilly backside is a major treat, featuring dramatic, elevated tees on three holes, including the 141-yard par-3 at No. 13.
Carmel Valley Ranch is a fun track overall, that's tight on the front side, but opens up on the back, where every hole is unique. A bonus is the frequent deer sightings, which on this October day included several dozen on the nature-preserved, tree-lined back 9. Guests pay $145 and $85 for afternoon tee times.
Upscale Lodging
The resort has 139 guest suites that are spacious (average 800 square feet) and were upgraded during the $39 million resort renovation that took place two years ago. Most of the suites feature a sizable outdoor balcony with gorgeous views, thanks to their hillside locations. There are fireplaces, separate living rooms, flat-screen TVs, and large bathrooms. One thing lacking are kitchen facilities.
The lodging is not cheap, ranging from $425 to $800 per night, plus $25 a night resort fee. Bring a pet and it's another $100 for the duration of the stay.
Fine Dining
No kitchen facilities means breakfast, lunch, dinner or a poolside snack at the Ranch. And that's not a bad thing, considering the delectable menu selections and the beautifully laid-out dining room and spacious outdoor area with fire pits.
Executive chef Tim Wood may even come out to your table and discuss the menu selections, which are very diverse. He's a hands-on chef who sometimes makes his own trips to purchase from area fishermen, farmers and organic growers. The Lodge Restaurant is definitely a farm-to-table cuisine.
Wine Tasting
Although there is no real need to leave the Ranch, a pleasant escape is visiting Carmel Valley Village, a six-mile drive. This quaint area, located off scenic Carmel Valley Road, has 17 wine-tasting rooms and is a noted Pinot Noir region. Wineries include Talbot, Boekenoogen, Bernardus and Figge.
The Village also includes a number of shops, galleries and restaurants, most of them with outdoor seating.
