Throw out the Stereotypes! Just like a woman! The very phrase is a put-down, echoing the long-entrenched stereotypes of what it means to be female. From earliest recorded history, women have been cast in terms of males: lesser versions that are frailer, smaller, dimmer, less competent, defective. Never again. This lively, meticulously documented book turns the dismissive old catchphrase inside out. It is only in the past few years that researchers in many fields have actively focused on what being female really means. Their startling conclusion: almost every assumption made about women--physical, medical, historical, psychological--turns out to be untested, unproven, or untrue. Rather than classifying women only by their biology (as the medical establishment has), or denying they are biological creatures (as some feminists have),Just Like a Womanpresents the cutting-edge findings in anthropology, physiology, psychology, neuroscience, endocrinology, and medicine that are redefining what a woman is. These findings reveal the complex interconnections between all aspects of a woman's life from infancy to old age. Gender science is confirming that the female of the species is not the second sex but the separate sex. She is as powerful as the male but with different strengths: intuitiveness, adaptability, durability, sensitivity, sensuality. Her brain is smaller but more densely packed with neurons, her senses of smell and hearing more acute, her core body temperature higher. She processes emotions and perceives pain differently; she sleeps more lightly; she is more vulnerable to certain mental disorders and more resistant to others; her body reacts differently from a man's to many medications; and the rhythms of her monthly cycles shape not only her fertility but her mood, her creativity, and her resilience. These are only some of the special aspects spelled out in this book, and all of them are crucial to a woman's understanding of her body, her mind, her spirit, and her relationships with those she loves. From conception on, she is female to the core. This stereotype-shattering book lays out what it means to live in a woman's body, think with a woman's brain, drink in the world with a woman's senses, and react with a woman's sensibility to the stresses and elations of her multiple roles. Refreshingly free of ideology,Just Like a Womanoffers a stunningly liberating message that expands our concept of human potential and will forever change the way every woman views herself.

(Bowker Author Biography)
Reviews 3
Booklist Review
Most libraries have patrons who will be interested in one or more of these books--a wide-ranging survey of what science is learning about women's bodies and minds; biographies of two of the most important (and controversial) definers of second-stage feminism; and a year in the life of three women too young to remember women's lib. Hales is a medical journalist who has written books about depression and other forms of mental illness and about high-risk pregnancies. Here, she summarizes the results to date of research on gender, devoting full chapters in part 1 to animal behavior studies, anthropology, genetics and endocrinology, and clinical medicine. Part 2 examines women's life stages from menarche through menopause, and part 3 assesses gender aspects of women's brains, emotions, psychiatric vulnerability, sexuality, and spirituality. Although some of those areas are potentially controversial, Hales' straightforward discussions of research and conflicting theories allow readers to draw their own conclusions while learning a good deal of relatively new information. Betty Friedan and Germaine Greer both wrote seminal feminist works, and both have alienated past colleagues, in part, at least, because they've bad-mouthed so many of them. And Greer is angry about Wallace's biography: she objects to literary biography, especially of living authors, and she responded to publication of this one by calling Wallace "a dung beetle" and "flesh-eating bacteria." The reaction seems excessive: although Wallace certainly criticizes Greer and traces elements of her character to her dysfunctional family (as Greer herself has done), the biographer, who lives in Greer's native Australia, gives her subject full credit for the life-changing shock of recognition many women felt when they read The Female Eunuch. Hennessee had a more collaborative relationship with Friedan. When another author's planned biography fell through, Friedan met with Hennessee several times, and the author also interviewed members of Friedan's family and dozens of past and present friends and colleagues. Briefly stated, Hennessee's "fix" on Friedan is that she is "a woman of profound contradictions," committed to lofty goals but often prickly, dogmatic, even vengeful regarding those who disagreed with her or valued her less highly than she felt she deserved. Readers will not always like Betty Friedan in this involving narrative, but they can hardly fail to marvel at what she has accomplished over the years. The women Roth met and talked with over the course of a year are two generations younger than Friedan: a single, 29-year-old Hollywood film producer; a San Francisco ad exec who's 31 and divorced just long enough to be getting used to it; and a single, 33-year-old New Yorker who handles publicity for rock bands. From one vernal equinox to the next, Roth's informants let her in on their lives: interesting but not always satisfying jobs; family and friends; love interests of one degree of seriousness or another. These are the women who are said to be hearing their biological clocks, and all three do wonder whether marriage and kids are in their future. But they're also involved in other aspects of their lives and seem to have learned an essential truth: being alone has its own joys. --Mary Carroll
Publisher's Weekly Review
As Hales (Caring for the Mind) argues on the one hand against old stereotypes of women as inferior and, on the other hand, against those feminists who insist on no difference between men and women, she finds that fundamental differences between the sexes exist and are cause for celebration. In three sections, she gathers a vast amount of biological and physiological research on animal behavior, genetics, hormones, women's health; findings on the female life cycle from girlhood through menstruation, pregnancy, infertility and menopause; and investigations into the mind, from the brain to emotions, mental disorders, sexuality and spirituality. The first two sections offer a heavy-handed determinism: in the way female seals jockey for choice rock positions and entice male seals to fight each other, Hales sees the evolutionary roots of the differing competitive styles of corporate men and women. More interesting are the crucial medical discoveries she reveals, especially concerning heart disease: the traditional test for detecting heart disease in men is far less reliable for women, whose heart attacks often don't show the same symptoms as men's. While Hales claims to steer clear of ideology, her choice of facts reinforces the idea that the differences between men and women are what matters most about who we are; often she replaces a disparaging set of stereotypes with a valorizing one. Only in the chapters on the brain and emotions does she suggest that men and women may be as similar as they are different or that the differences may be caused by social rather than biological factors. As absorbing as it is contradictory, her book will be welcomed by readers who want to know why women are different from men but will be frustrating to those more interested in the significance of those differences.

Library Journal Review
Hales, a prolific and much-honored magazine writer, uses the results of medical and psychological studies as well as anecdotes to make a confident case for women and men as divergent evolutionary, biological, and emotional creations. Not that there's anything wrong with that. While there is some repetition of information, such as in the chapters that focus on menarche and menopause, the text is well organized overall. Hales's tone is matter of fact, and she stresses when research is preliminary or sketchy. Nevertheless, her fiercely nonpolitical book may be controversial because it refuses to provide a standard answer about gender equality. Hales concludes that gender differences are a product of natural selection, a successful, ongoing evolutionary strategy whereby women and men complement each other. By pulling together current knowledge on the subject, Hales has provided an engrossing snapshot of today's complicated gender landscape that future historians will use as a reference. For all science collections. [Previewed in Prepub Alert, LJ 12/98.]ÄKelly Hensley, East Tennessee State Univ. Lib., Johnson City (c) Copyright 2010.

Forgetting Where They Come From
I know two blogs operated by ex-patriate Minnesotans. The Pie-Eyed Picayune and The House of Wonks.
On December 10, one of Minnesota's most recognizable politicians, Eugene McCarthy, died. As an aside, there are a surprising number of recognizable Minnesota politicians from McCarthy's era- Humphrey and Mondale each held the vice-presidency. Neither has a peep to say about McCarthy's death.
I preemptively reply- for shame. Particularly given the timing of his death. McCarthy was a symbol- of resistance to an increasingly unpopular war, of the ethos of postwar liberalism- worth remembering, considering, and learning from as we face our own increasingly unpopular war and drift on the part of modern day liberalism.
Of course I can understand Minnesotans not standing up to take notice. He was, ultimately, a failure. Not as a man (as a man, he was probably too iconoclastic to be either a success or failure). But as a leader, as a standard bearer. A friend/ acquaintance of mine, Dominic Sandbrook, authored a political biography of McCarthy/ postwar liberalism last year- Eugene McCarthy: The Rise and Fall of Postwar American Liberalism (see reviews here and here)- which argues McCarthy, and by extension the Democratic Party/ The Left/ Liberalism, "wasted his talent" for reasons both personal and structural.
The end result- of the promise of the early 1960s, the tumult at the end of that decade, the ensuing scandal and disarray of the 1970s, and the 1980s embrace of comfort- is the modern political moment. McCarthy and company are not solely responsible- the Moralistic Movement has its own role to play.
Let's learn this history and avoid another quarter century of disarray.

Author's Notes
Originally, when designing this character, I wanted her to be much of the same personality as Estella from Dicken's Great Expectations... a girl with such a cold heart, yet every man yearned for. I was enchanted by the character when I first saw her, and the relationship she had with Miss Havisham. I was 13 when I first read the book and can remember it clearly. Dickens is a captivating author. Just as Miss Havisham created Estella in essence, to pay the world back from being jilted by love, Sadie was created... so she could begin with a cold heart, but learn to grow from her pain and be healed from it, and eventually flower once again.

That's it friends!
I hope you enjoyed this roundup, since being in this industry for almost 10 years I must say it has changed so much and templates have only gotten better and better. Before coding anything significant I would look at templates and see if there aren't elements I can simply take from these templates. If template is $16, but it saves you 4-8 hours of work, isnt it worth it? That of course depends how much you charge for hour, but in most cases this will be no brainer for any freelancer! Best of all if you can take all admin template and use it, saving days of work and lots of money!
Good luck!

This book draws together both the cutting edge of peer reviewed sports medicine research, and the subtle concepts of changing your climbing habits and routine to prevent and successfully recover from injuries. It is a handbook on how to take care of yourself as a lifelong climbing athlete. By spanning the fields of climbing coaching, physiotherapy, sports medicine and behavioural science, it goes beyond the general advice on treating symptoms offered by sports medicine textbooks and into much more detail on technique and habits specific to climbing than the existing climbing literature base.
You will learn how your current climbing habits are already causing your future injuries and what you can do to change that. If you are already injured, it will prevent you from prolonging your injury with the wrong climbing habits and rehabilitation choices. You will learn how the ingredients of prevention and good recovery come from wildly different sources and how you have been using only a fraction of them. Fully referenced throughout, the practical advice for diagnosis, rehabilitation and prevention of climbing injuries is drawn from up to date peer reviewed sports medicine research.

Robert was offered a baseball contract by the New York Yankees out of high school, but chose to enlist in the US Navy during World War II. When he returned from his Naval service and attended Hofstra, the Pittsburgh Pirates

Debt casts a big shadow in the minds of most Wall Street thinkers as they make their 2013 forecasts, and Jim Swanson of MFS Investments warns investors not to take the complacent view of well, were a lot better off than Greece and Italy.
Swanson said during a briefing that U.S. government debt per capita is now higher than it is in Europe.
The US is pretty much in the danger zone for debt to GDP, he said, adding that Germany and France are right behind. He cited the warning bells sounded all year by two prominent economists, Kenneth Rogoff and Carmen Reinhart of Harvard. Both have written 100% debt to GDP is a threshold, like 32 degrees Fahrenheit, when rains turns to snow. However, Swanson said the implications are not immediate disaster, but rather, a reduction of the U.S. economys growth rate by one-third, compared to the time before the debt crisis.
He said that the U.S. economy has grown by 3.5% on average since World War II. Now the rate is 2%, a reduction of exactly one-third. He further quoted the professors as noting that they expect a series of asset collapses after a society crosses the Rubicon of 100% debt to GDP ratio. This is what is weighing on the business cycle today, he said.
Like everyone else on Wall Street, he is also worried about the fiscal cliff, but like many, expects policy makers to come to at least a partial compromise on some issues. He expects this to result in a fiscal bump instead, likely to shave 1.5% from growth next year.
He expects the United States to experience a mild recession in the first quarter of next year, with a growth rate of zero to one-half of a percent. But he added that markets are up, because theyre looking past that slowdown. The optimists are forecasting sunnier weather later in the year, thanks to several strengths, including a recovering housing sector, as well as healthy consumer spending and robust corporate profits.
His other big worry is Europe, which he said has not fixed its biggest problem, which he does not see as the alarming debt-to-GDP ratio. The problem is unit labor costs in the southern countries including Italy, Spain and Portugal. He said excessively high costs are the reason these countries are losing competitiveness in global business. And that leads to less tax revenue from corporations, which means less money to pay for increasingly expensive social services, which are ballooning the debt.
These guys are losing world export shares, and they arent addressing [the problem.] Fiscal cutting will not do it. Theyve got to address the unit labor cost problem, he said.

Category: Coffee Table. More...
On the other hand, perhaps you want your space to look cozier (and you need some storage). Stash baskets, trunks and old suitcases under simple legged coffee tables to ground spaces that are otherwise too open. Solid tabletops usually have a very square corner. If you have little kids or the circulation is tight, allow extra space at the ends so it's easier to get around the corners without hitting your shins. Go for color with an upholstered coffee table, as it will draw people to the surrounding sofas and chairs. Top it with a tray to hold books and other items. Choose your fabric wisely, since people may want to put up their feet (and shoes). Outdoor fabrics can be smart; steer clear of linen and fabrics with high amounts of rayon or viscose. Take a swatch home and test it out with dirt, red wine or whatever you think your coffee table will encounter, to make sure your fabric choice can handle it all.
Many people with small children prefer a round coffee table as they consider the lack of sharp corners a safer option and less likely to cause accidents. Round tables can be difficult to fit into smaller rooms and can take up more floor space than other shapes. They can be very social however and are a good choice if you regularly sit around playing cards or board games. Consideration should also be given to whether you prefer a coffee table with legs or one that is solid to floor level. Raised coffee tables that allow a clear view under the table can help to create an impression of space; however solid coffee tables can often look more expensive and substantial.
Coffee tables come in thousands of different shapes and sizes, as do living areas. When making your purchase you need to find the size and shape that will best match your room whilst still looking and functioning how you require. Some people consider the look of a coffee table their number one priority and may prefer a very large coffee table for maximum visual impact. Others prefer to maximize the amount of floor space available for other uses. As a general guideline it is preferable to have a minimum of two feet around each side of the coffee table and it should be reachable, without standing, from each of the seating areas. Some people also suggest that your coffee table should be no larger than sixty percent of your sofas length. The height that you choose very much depends on what you intend to use it for. Modern coffee tables are often very low; however this may make using it for eating difficult. It is often a good idea to place an item of a similar size and shape to any table that you intend to buy in the room. This will give you a feel for how it will work with the space that you have.

How would you create this colour?
This lovely MS page at V&A (dated 13th c, Germany page from a Gradual) has what I'd call a peacock? cerulean? blue colour in it. It may or may not come across in your screen, but trust me that when I viewed it at the museum - it's not the conventional lapis- or azurite-sourced blue.
link to a vendor page for palette - your screen's pixelage may vary).
To date, I've tried to stick to colours that I know have precedent in period, even if they are now synthetic versions ie. W&N ultramarine for lapis; alizarin for cadmium; vermilion for...vermilion.
It's not perfect, but to date it's served me very well, and I've rarely found a colour I couldn't reproduce, til now.
So what pigment do you think created this colour?
What would be the best approximation in gouache?

To be honest it looks to me like the blue ink I just bought... that is "Schreibtinte - blau permanent" by Rohrer & Klinger (at Boesner). And if that is no help for you it defenitly looks to me more ultramarine / lapis then any of the other blue colors. :-)
Looking forward to your version of the original!!!

Looks like cerulean to me. (I use Daler Rowney, if it helps.) Generally I use cerulean and ultramarine as my two blues. I have a very dark blue that I mix for rare occasions, but mostly it's just cerulean and ultramarine (or them lightened with white for shading)

Sigh. It would be one of the expensive ones... cheapest I've found for W&N is £4.50 tube.

yep Boesner has it for 7-euro. Schminke brand. but look at it this way 1 tube goes a LONG way.

By Sandi Rosner
In the Fall issue, we talked about choosing which size to make for sweaters. But for every sweater we knit, most of us will make several smaller projects. Many knitters refuse to be caught without a pair of socks on the needles for knitting on the go. Hats and mittens are just as portable, and are a wintertime necessity. This month, we'll talk about how to choose an appropriate size for these essentials.
Most knitters don't give much thought to size when planning these smaller projects. They pick up some yarn, cast on some stitches and make a hat with the knowledge that it's sure to fit someone. But haven't we all experienced the disappointment of investing hours carefully crafting a pair of socks or mittens only to find that they don't fit well? It's worth spending a little time up front to avoid that sinking feeling. And if you're knitting a gift, making sure it fits well is a lovely way of saying "I made this just for you."
Start with Good Measurements
Just like when you measure for sweaters, you'll need a good cloth measuring tape. You'll also need paper and pencil to record the measurements you take. If you often knit for others, consider keeping a record of measurements for each person. Whether your preference is a small notebook, a computer spreadsheet, or a note on your phone, you'll find it helpful to have these measurements close at hand when planning your projects.
Hat size is determined by the circumference of your head at the lower edge of the hat. Wrap the tape measure around your head, above your eyebrows and ears. Be sure you don't have a finger under the tape, look straight ahead, and keep the tape level with the floor.
Mittens and Gloves
The size of hand coverings is based on the measurement around your palm, inside thumb. Be careful not to wrap the tape too tight— it shouldn't indent the skin. While you're measuring your hand, make a note of the length from the crease at the base of your palm to the tip of your middle finger. If the intended wearer has a manicurist on retainer, be sure to include the length of those fingernails.
Sock size is determined by the measurement around the ball of your foot at the widest point, just behind your toes. Don't worry about the fact that you'll probably get a bigger measurement around the arch of your foot; the heel gusset will accommodate that. Take two more measurements while you're at it: 1) the length of your foot from the back of your heel to the tip of your toes, and 2) the circumference of your ankle at the point where the cuff of the sock will land.
Negative Ease is a Good Thing
Ease is the difference between the finished measurement of the garment and the measurement of the body part it covers. For accessories, you'll nearly always want some negative ease so the garment hugs the body. An oversized sweater can be a striking fashion statement. Oversized mittens or socks? Not so much.
For hats, gloves and socks, aim for about 10 percent negative ease. That means if you are knitting for a 22½-inch (57cm) head, you'll get a good fit with a 20-inch (51cm) hat. For my 10-inch (25cm) feet, I make socks with a 9-inch (23cm) circumference.
Of course, there are exceptions. We rely on the inherent elasticity of knitted fabric to make our projects fit. Stranded or slip -stitch colorwork can result in a fabric with considerably less stretch than single-color knitting. In such cases, your project will be more comfortable if you aim for a size closer to the actual body measurement.
If you're using a very bulky yarn, you may also want to choose a size closer to the actual body measurements. In these cases, the yarn itself takes up some space inside the tube of your hat or mittens. A couple of extra stitches can prevent a crowded fit.
Gauge Matters
You already know this part, right? All the measurements in the world won't get you a good fit if your gauge doesn't match the pattern specification.
Maybe you want to dive right in to the knitting without making a swatch. We understand. Take a minute when you are 4 to 5 inches (10 to 12.5cm) into your project to check how many stitches you're making per inch. If your gauge is off, it's better to find out when you are halfway down the leg of the first sock instead of after you've finished the pair.
Making Adjustments
What if the mitten pattern you're dying to make only comes in one size and you need your mittens a little bigger or a little smaller? Unless there are elaborate colorwork or stitch patterns that are continuous around the piece, most accessory patterns are easy to alter.
For patterns with a relatively small repeat, consider whether you can add or subtract a repeat of the stitch pattern without spoiling the overall effect. Can you add a couple of stitches on either side of a central cable or lace panel to get a little extra width?
One of the most common adjustments occurs when you need to accommodate ankles that are significantly larger than the foot. If the difference is only an inch or so, you shouldn't have a problem. The ribbing at the top of the sock should expand enough for comfort. But if the difference is more than an inch, it's worth making some alterations.
If you're working from the cuff down, be sure you use a good elastic cast-on method (tubular works well, you can find out more about that here). Add enough stitches for an extra repeat or two of the stitch pattern in the leg of your sock, and decrease those extra stitches away just before you begin the heel. If you're working toe-up, add extra stitches after the heel is complete and be sure to use a stretchy bind-off (again a tubular method works well). Of course, be sure you make notes about the changes you've made so you can make the second sock to match!
We all want our hand knits to be worn with pleasure. Taking care with the fit of even the smallest projects is one way of honoring the time and attention you invest.

text: We got hit with a little of everything in the last 24 hours. First it snowed last evening, then there was freezing rain overnight, and then rain today. Late this morning the snow was about 6 inches deep with a glazing over top. My daughter and I decided to go for a walk despite the weather and I took a photo of the ice. Kind of lovely as long as you're not trying to shovel it. 🙂

The Hawthorne, California police weren't happy that a man driving through a 'sobriety checkpoint,' on Sunday had rolled his window only three-quarters of the way down as he handed them his driver's license. Nope, they wanted to show him who is in charge and demanded he roll it all the way down.
When the driver refused a California Highway Patrol officer called over a Hawthorne Police Lieutenant, who then accused the driver of not complying with "the rules of the checkpoint." After 'failing to comply' for nearly 45 minutes, law enforcement officers ordered a tow truck driver to the car while the occupants remained inside.
Eventually, the driver, who showed no signs of impairment, ended his protest under arrest. The U.S. supreme Court ruled in 1990 that DUI checkpoints do not violate the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which reads:
"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."
King George III would be so proud…

Michael Hardt
War and Democracy in the Age of Empire
Release Date: 7/26/2005
LIST PRICE: $18.00 (you save $5.40)
In their international bestseller Empire, Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri presented a grand unified vision of a world in which the old forms of imperialism are no longer effective. But what of Empire in an age of "American empire"? Has fear become our permanent condition and democracy an impossible dream? Such pessimism is profoundly mistaken, the authors argue. Empire, by interconnecting more areas of life, is actually creating the possibility for a new kind of democracy, allowing different groups to form a multitude, with the power to forge a democratic alternative to the present world order.Exhilarating in its optimism and depth of insight, Multitude consolidates Hardt and Negri's stature as two of the most important political philosophers at work in the world today.
""This timely book brings together myriad loose strands of far left thinking with clarity, measured reasoning and humor."" —Publishers Weekly, starred
""Impressive… a rare and exciting work of synthesis."" —Booklist, starred review
""Brilliant."" —The Village Voice

Ohio Rep. Marcy Kaptur: Democrats Must Do 'Soul-Searching'
Dec. 27, 2016 (EIRNS)—Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D-Ohio), the primary sponsor of legislation to reinstate the Glass-Steagall Act in the 112th, 113th, and 114th Congresses, and the longest-serving woman in the U.S. House of Representatives, told The (Toledo) Blade's Tom Troy, author of The Blade's Dec. 18 story, that, after losing the industrial states of Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania in 2016, "I think the Democratic Party has some soul-searching to do. On the economic front, it fell short."
Troy reports that Kaptur has sent her Democratic House colleagues a packet of graphs, political cartoons, and articles that portray a "bicoastal" bias on the part of the Democratic Party. Kaptur said that the industrial heartland feels "squeezed out, overshadowed, marginalized, ignored."
"I think they are sympathetic, but they really don't understand," Rep. Kaptur said about House Democrats' re-election of California Rep. Nancy Pelosi as their Leader over Rep. Tim Ryan of Ohio.
Kaptur said.
Kaptur said the money of wealthy donors has enormous power, and "it's all behind the curtains in both parties." The Democratic Party is quick to talk about social issues, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender rights, women's rights... so called identity politics.' The economic message is one which our party was deaf toward for a very long time," Kaptur said, citing the Democratic Party leadership support for the 1993 North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) that allowed manufactuers to make products cheaper [in Mexico] for sale in the United States. The leaders of our party don't agree with our point of view out here.
Rep. Kaptur said she had spoken to Hillary Clinton before her speech in Toledo on Oct. 3, about a message that would resonate in Ohio. Instead, Clinton gave a speech where billionaire investor Warren Buffett was mentioned, but not the international trade agreements, including NAFTA.
As to Trump's proposed 35% tariff on goods manufactured in other countries to be sold in the United States, Kaptur said,
Donald Trump did very well in Youngstown, in eastern Ohio. Mahoning County Democratic chair David Betras said voters perceived the national Democrats as caring "more about where you take a pee than about whether you have a job." (Obama had ordered in May that public schools must allow transgender students to use bathrooms that correspond with their gender identity, rather than their birth gender.)
Betras sent a memo to the Clinton camapAign in May which said she needed to make a commitment to bring back good jobs. Betras said,
Ohio Democratic Chairman David Pepper said that though there are multiple reasons Clinton lost, the main one was that Trump spoke to the frustrations of working people stuck in a flat-wage economy. He believed that Trump's non-economic message, such as the Muslim ban, and a wall between Mexico and the United States, were embraced by some but ignored by many.

An airplane ride — and airport delay — gave me time recently to dig through some of the garden catalogs that have been collecting in a pile at my house since before the New Year. (Yes, I did go through security with a dozen catalogs in my backpack.) Looking at them all at once, the garden trends leaped off the pages.
Trend No. 1: Colors, especially lime and tangerine. The lime color might also be called chartreuse, but it is that bright, light green that stands out in a garden or a pot, especially with bright annuals or a deeper background of forest green plants. You can see it frequently in coleus colors, such as the edging on 'Picture Perfect Rose' or 'Life Lime', but I also noticed it in an heirloom catalog in an 1869 geranium called 'Crystal Palace Gem', which had vibrant lime foliage.
Examples of tangerine flowers were everywhere from Rudbeckia 'Capuccino' to Lantana 'Landmark Citrus' to Hollyhock 'Peaches and Dream'. My absolute favorite is Osteospermum 'Orange Symphony', with its pale orange petals and purple center. The catalogs often show the orangish flowers mixed with other purple or lavender blooms and, of course, lime foliage.
