Ghosts of DC revealed a terrific bit of history Thursday in the form of a Washington Times article from 1905.
After the 1904 Senators produced one of the worst seasons in professional baseball history, there was a call to rename the team, and the Times published many of the more than 400 suggestions.
"There were some unique ideas," the article said,"such as that of the man who, out of compliment to the strenuous character of the President, wants the club called "Teddies." "
If that contributor were alive today, what would he think of the mockery the Nationals have made of our 26th president?

OK, so prohibiting would certainly not just be extremely tough, it additionally would not function. Are you still interested? Continue reading.
Alternative 2: We regulate hooking. Lawfully. Governmentally.
Claim hooking is conveniently offered, yet under governmental control. "Wait," I hear you state, "that's not what I asked." Bear with me please, these are simply assumed experiments, as well as often the very best evidence is by reductio advertisement absurdum.
Regulating hooking absolutely seems far better than outlawing prostituion. Can we believe of an additional opportunity? (Sorry, could not withstand.).
Presume that sex by certified sex employees is recommended by physicians versus clinical depression. And even that hooking is offered totally free with sex employees paid by the federal government. (Contrast this, if you will, with the arising campaigns free of charge public transportation where bus motorists still require to be paid by the public authorities.).
Choice 1: We outlaw hooking. Absolutely. Unconditionally.
Allow's fail to remember for a minute that this would certainly be really difficult to implement. Web advertisements resulting in members-only "clubs" or exclusive "companions" will certainly be difficult to regulate. Well, there is constantly a tradeoff in between flexibility and also safety, as we understand currently even more than ever before.
Visualize a sex employee being like ... an aesthetic doctor. You would just go there if you really felt a ... specific demand and also if you had the loan, however you would not always market this to the globe at big.
If hooking were outlawed, after that we would certainly have just totally free, consensual sex in the globe? Ban something, as well as it will certainly go covert. Yes, alcohol usage did go down, yet criminal activity went up.
On the various other hand, governmental control can function, cf. alcohol law in Scandinavia or marijuana plan in the Netherlands. Alcohol as well as medications, specifically, are readily available there, yet just under specific lawful policies. For hooking, such information would certainly have to be functioned out.
We could also attempt an avoidance program versus hooking. State that all sex with woman of the streets is totally free, however they all have actually a sexually sent illness. Would certainly this "restriction" hooking?
Of all: isn't hooking currently prohibited in several nations? To proceed this conversation, allow's presume we're speaking about a nation where it isn't outlawed (yet).
Claim that if a "john" is captured in the act as soon as, he pays a penalty. And also the 3rd time, he has his photo in the regional paper's sex-offenders web page (or something comparable on a Facebook, if you choose).
Allow's attempt some idea experiments. It's safe enjoyable, and also we may find something we really did not understand in the past. For usefulness's benefit, I'm mosting likely to think women vendors and also male customers from currently on.
Be that as it may, the primary concern when regulating hooking stays: would certainly this decrease prostitution-related criminal activities by lowering prostitution-related revenues? I'm not stating it would certainly remove relevant criminal activity, however most definitely decrease it.
Alternative 3: We permit hooking. Easily. Financially.
Ethical problems apart, allow's state hooking were honestly readily available as well as absolutely lawful within the regulations of a market economic situation, likewise when it comes to any kind of service we have today.
Alternative 1: We outlaw hooking. If hooking were outlawed, after that we would certainly have just cost-free, consensual sex in the globe? Would certainly this "restriction" hooking? Managing hooking absolutely seems far better than prohibiting prostituion. Also if hooking were a "typical" organisation, it would certainly still be appealing to enhance revenues by tax obligation fraudulence, employee exploitation or deceptive (allow alone sexist) advertising and marketing.
Allow's encounter it, there will certainly constantly be criminal activity. Also if hooking were a "regular" organisation, it would certainly still be appealing to boost revenues by tax obligation fraudulence, employee exploitation or deceptive (allow alone sexist) marketing.

Cloudant is taking its distributed database-as-a-service (DBaaS) technology to the open source in a code merger BigCouch and Apache CouchDB.
More Insights
White PapersMore >>
ReportsMore >>
WebcastsMore >>
NOTE: CouchDB serves as the foundation of Cloudant's technology stack in the form of BigCouch, an open source variant of CouchDB the company developed to support large-scale, globally distributed applications.
After four years of operating BigCouch in production, Cloudant says it has merged the BigCouch code into the CouchDB codebase, making it possible to manage and replicate data with CouchDB at much larger scale.
"The code merger of BigCouch and Apache CouchDB is good for the open source community and developers that require a scalable web-aware database," said Travell Perkins, CTO at Fidelity Investments.
"As a classically trained computer scientist, I'm interested in the inner workings of my database solutions as much as the practical utility they provide dynamic data and use cases. I've tried a lot of NoSQL solutions over the years with varying degrees of success. After working with the distributed clustering capabilities being built into CouchDB, I think we are approaching the ideal JSON-centric database for enterprise workloads at scale," said Perkins.
NOTE: The open source BigCouch database project was developed in 2008 by the Cloudant cofounders, who had previously been using CouchDB for managing and distributing the petabytes of data generated every second by CERN's Large Hadron Collider.
For the code merger, Cloudant engineers imported sections of BigCouch code into the Apache CouchDB repositories, adapting the database to run in a clustered environment and to better replicate databases across clusters and between data centers.
Going forward, Cloudant says it will cease development of BigCouch in order to participate in the CouchDB community and keep CouchDB and Cloudant clustering functionality in sync.
Cloudant engineers will continue to make cluster-scaling and fault-tolerance enhancements within the CouchDB project and will reuse that code in Cloudant's database service.
"We're continuing work within the Apache project to integrate the clustering technology of BigCouch, but now we've set the stage and are welcoming more project committers to get involved," said Jan Lehnardt, project management committee chair of the Apache CouchDB project.
"Cloudant's work fine-tuning BigCouch database replication at large scale now gives Apache CouchDB a complete strategy for replicating data across distributed systems, whether nodes are Erlang clusters in the same data center or on the other side of the world. Developers have more options for moving data closer to their users and a simpler strategy for synchronizing that data throughout a larger system," added Lehnardt.

We love lists. Many organizations maintain lists for any number of reasons. But when these organization share their lists via Web standards we can view these through the actionable data available in the Library. In this case, these lists become something even far more useful. Here are just a few examples of some of the Living Lists available in this Library Link domain.

The New York Times Best Seller list is widely considered the preeminent list of best-selling books in the United States. Published weekly in The New York Times Book Review, the best-seller list has been published in the Times since October 12, 1931. In recent years it has evolved into multiple lists in different categories, broken down by fiction and non-fiction, hardcover, paperback and electronic, and different genres.
Exposing library data in an open and actionable manner allows for intelligent agents to carry out tasks on behalf of users in new and useful ways. Here are the list of registered intelligent agents built using the Library's Linked Data.

We know how easy it is to get carried away online, so that's why there's a standard seven day cooling off period. What does this mean? Quite simply, you have the right to cancel an order within seven working days of purchase or within seven working days of receipt of the goods (whichever is the longer).
If you decide to cancel your order within seven working days, you'll need to contact us in writing, either by letter or by email.
Please note, whilst the order is in your possession, you need to make sure that it remains in perfect condition. That includes the safe return of it to us taking care to package all items appropriately. They need to be returned within 14 days of your cancellation with their original packaging, with all tags (if applicable) and the invoice to:
We cannot offer a refund or exchange for orders returned over 30 days after purchase, for whatever reason.
The best advice we have is to wrap the product carefully to avoid damage and to return goods by recorded delivery, registered post or by courier. You'll need to pay the cost for returning the goods. Please retain proof of postage. That includes orders that have been cancelled after we've sent them, but before they've arrived with you.
Once we have received your returns we will process a refund to the credit or debit card (or PayPal) that you used for the purchase. These normally happen quickly, but please allow 30 days after we receive your return or 7 day cancellation notice.
From time to time we get people calling us saying that they haven't received their goods. By far the most common reason for this is that there has been no one in to accept them or the postie cannot find you. Our advice if this happens is to call your local post office. We find that most times, your order will be languishing there waiting for you to collect it or rearrange delivery.
If you haven't contacted them and they are storing your goods they will return them to us after 30 days. They then charge us for trying to deliver to you and for returning them to us! So, all undeliverable or refused orders will be treated as a return in the same way as for returned items above.
If you decide to return an item to us because it is not suitable, returns postage will not be refunded.
If however, you're sending it back because it's faulty or you've been sent the wrong thing, you do need to contact us first. That's so that we can provide you with a FREEPOST returns address, which saves you paying the postage. If you don't do this first, we can't credit your postage at a later date.
VERY occasionally someone receives damaged items. If this happens you'll need to notify us in writing (email or letter) within 7 days of receipt and we'll send you a replacement once we've received the damaged goods back.
We take huge pride and care in the design and production of our goods. However, should your footwear develop any faults from general wear and tear under normal use, we can only refund your item(s) if we receive, in writing, that you wish to return them within the 28 days from the date on your original receipt.
We want you to be completely satisfied with your purchases. If you have any problems with your products or our service, please let us know so that we can rectify the situation. Our customer services team (led by Joe) has a reputation for being awesome.
Items are described and photographed as accurately as possible, but please note that sizes, colours and designs may vary slightly.
Nothing in this Returns Policy affects your statutory rights or your rights under any contract you may have with us.
Should your item be returned to us as undelivered and you wish to receive it again or should your item not be suitable and you would like us to send you an alternative (after you have sent the original items back), we are happy to re-send or replace the items on your order but there is an additional P & P cost.
When we receive an item back from you, if undelivered or not suitable, we will contact you via email to quote the additional P & P cost.
We aim to answer all emails within 1 working day, but when it is especially cold & people are desperate for warmer feet, it may take a short while longer! If you require an urgent response, please state so in the subject field of your email & we will do our very best to get back to you as soon as possible.
Although we do make every effort to cater for special delivery information (i.e. 'please leave in the shed behind the back gate if not home') we cannot guarantee this, nor guarantee our delivery agent will fulfil these instructions. We take no responsibility for the item should it's whereabouts alter to those stated in the special instructions by you as our customer.
For orders of more than 2 pairs of slippers, we often upgrade postage to Royal Mail Recorded, requiring a signature. Therefore, we cannot guarantee special delivery requests will be met; i.e. 'please leave in the shed behind the back gate if not home'.
If you have been waiting longer than expected for receipt of your parcel, it is usually because there has been some delay in the hands of our postal services / couriers. Through no fault of theirs, this tends to be because of any incidents within certain areas or territories for whatever reason.
If your item was send via 1st Class Delivery or Special delivery and you are (regretfully) experiencing any delays in receiving your parcel, please check here to find out if there have been any incidents which may have caused delays in the UK.
Or here to find out if there may have been any incidents delaying your parcel anywhere else in the world.

22 Year - AA Antique Bronze - 1 1/2" [Challenge Coin Size]
22 Years - AA Antique Bronze - 1.5"
Minted in antiqued bronze, and displaying the years of sobriety on the obverse, the AA Serenity Prayer coin is the perfect way to commemorate another 365 days of sobriety in physical, easy-to-carry way. The obverse features the words "To Thine Own Self Be True," from Shakespeare's Hamlet (Act 1, scene 3, 78–82), a motto that those striving for sobriety know well.
The reverse features the AA Serenity Prayer: the mantra of AA's sobriety 12-step program. It reads as follows:
"God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference."
This 1.5-inch challenge coin sized medallion is larger than traditional recovery coin sizes, a more tangible reminder of your recovery. Drawing on the proud military tradition of unit challenge coins, the challenge coin size recovery medallion signifies dedication, community, and commitment. The additional tug of this slightly heavier coin will become a constant, reassuring reminder of your daily success and that you are not alone.

Looking for something?
All of the roses listed here are repeat-flowering, which means they flower in flushes providing colour and interest in the border over several months. Nearly all modern roses, including David Austin's English Roses, are repeat-flowering. To encourage repeat-flowering, dead-head your roses, either by removing just the dead flowers or cutting the stems down to the first full leaf. Dead-heading also helps maintain a tidier plant.

Scroll down this page and you will see all of thoses in New Mexico, sorted by county. ALWAYS call before you go to confirm the info, they don't always report changes to me!
If you know of one we missed and want to add it or correct the information, please let me know!
February: Easter Sunday will April 1, 2018, so in 2018 most Easter egg hunts will be held on Saturday March 24, 2018 and some on Saturday March 31, 2018. ALWAYS click the links to check date and time with the event's own website, as there are often last minute changes due to weather or logistical problems, just click on the link to the event's website and (in most cases), you want to click on the "events" link or "calendar" link on their website. Or use their site search for "Easter". Do let them know you found them here, so they will update us next year. Since many egg hunts do not publish the current year's dates until the very last minute, we may not get their current information, which is why we have links to their websites, facebook pages and calendars. See their events calendar. There are also Easter breakfasts and brunches and Easter parades to watch!And if you are looking for local children's consignment sales, also often held by churches, click here!

Before you start
Several sections have instructions stating "become the postgres user". Execute the following to get a shell as the postgres user:
su root su - postgres
Otherwise sudo can be used:
sudo -i -u postgres
Installing PostgreSQL
Install postgresql from the official repositories. Before PostgreSQL can function correctly, the postgres user needs to be given ownership of several files and directories, and the database cluster must be initialized. The following steps set sane defaults.
Create "volatile and temporary files and directories". For details, see Systemd#Temporary_files:
# systemd-tmpfiles --create postgresql.conf
Create a directory to house the database cluster, give it correct permissions and initialize the database cluster:
# mkdir /var/lib/postgres/data # chown -c -R postgres:postgres /var/lib/postgres # sudo su - postgres -c "initdb --locale en_US.UTF-8 -E UTF8 -D '/var/lib/postgres/data'"
Start PostgreSQL and, optionally, add it to the list of daemons that start on system startup:
# systemctl start postgresql # systemctl enable postgresql
Create your first database/user
Become the postgres user. Add a new database-user using the createuser command.
If you create a user as per your login user ($USER) it allows you to access the postgresql database shell without having to specify a user to login (which makes it quite convenient).
e.g. to create a superuser
$ createuser -s -U postgres --interactive
Enter name of role to add: myUsualArchLoginName
Create a new database over which the above user has read/write privileges using the createdb command.
From your login shell (not the postrgres user's):
$ createdb myDatabaseName
Familiarize with PostgreSQL
Access the database shell
Become the postgres user. Start the primary db shell, psql, where you can do all your creation of databases/tables, deletion, set permissions, and run raw SQL commands. Use the "-d" option to connect to the database you created (without specifying a database, psql will try to access a database that matches your username)
$ psql -d myDatabaseName
Some helpful commands:
Get help
=> \help
Connect to a particular database
=> \c <database>
List all users and their permission levels
=> \du
Shows summary information about all tables in the current database
=> \dt
exit/quit the psql shell
=> \q or CTRL+d
There are of course many more meta-commands, but these should help you get started.
Configure PostgreSQL to be accessible from remote hosts
The PostgreSQL database server configuration file is
postgresql.conf. This file is located in the data directory of the server, typically
/var/lib/postgres/data. This folder also houses the other main config files, including the
find or
locate is not finding the conf files, this is the reason.
As root user edit the file
In the connections and authentications section uncomment or edit the
listen_addresses line to your needs:
listen_addresses = '*'
Take a careful look at the other lines.
Hereafter insert the following line in the host-based authentication file
/var/lib/postgres/data/pg_hba.conf. This file controls which hosts are allowed to connect, so be careful.
# IPv4 local connections: host all all your_desired_ip_address/32 trust
your_desired_ip_address is the IP address of the client.
After this you should restart the daemon process for the changes to take effect with:
# systemctl restart postgresql
For troubleshooting take a look in the server log file
tail /var/log/postgresql.log
Configure PostgreSQL to work with PHP
Install the PHP-PostgreSQL modules php-pgsql.
Edit the file
/etc/php/php.ini. Find the line that starts with:
Change it to:
If you need PDO, do the same thing with
;extension=pdo.so and
;extension=pdo_pgsql.so. If these lines are not present, add them. These lines may be in the "Dynamic Extensions" section of the file, or toward the very end of the file.
Restart the Apache web server:
- systemctl restart httpd
Change default data dir (optional)
The default directory where all your newly created databases will be stored is
/var/lib/postgres/data. To change this, follow these steps:
Create the new directory and assign it to user
postgres (you eventually have to become root):
mkdir -p /pathto/pgroot/data chown -R postgres:postgres /pathto/pgroot
Become the postgres user(change to root, then postgres user), and initialize the new cluster:
initdb -D /pathto/pgroot/data
If not using systemd, edit
/etc/conf.d/postgresql and change the PGROOT variable(optionally PGLOG) to point to your new pgroot directory:
#PGROOT="/var/lib/postgres/" PGROOT="/pathto/pgroot/"
If using systemd, edit
/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/postgresql.service, which links to
/usr/lib/systemd/system/postgresql.service, and change the default PGROOT path.
#Environment=PGROOT=/var/lib/postgres/ Environment=PGROOT=/pathto/pgroot/
You will also need to change the default PIDFile path.
Change default encoding of new databases to UTF-8 (optional)
When creating a new database (e.g. with
createdb blog) PostgreSQL actually copies a template database. There are two predefined templates: template0 is vanilla, while template1 is meant as an on-site template changeable by the administrator and is used by default. In order to change the encoding of new database, one of the options is to change on-site template1. To do this, log into PostgresSQL shell (psql) and execute the following:
First, we need to drop template1. Templates cannot be dropped, so we first modify it so it is an ordinary database:
UPDATE pg_database SET datistemplate = FALSE WHERE datname = 'template1';
Now we can drop it:
DROP DATABASE template1;
The next step is to create a new database from template0, with a new default encoding:
CREATE DATABASE template1 WITH TEMPLATE = template0 ENCODING = 'UNICODE';
Now modify template1 so it is actually a template:
UPDATE pg_database SET datistemplate = TRUE WHERE datname = 'template1';
(OPTIONAL) If you do not want anyone connecting to this template, set datallowconn to FALSE:
UPDATE pg_database SET datallowconn = FALSE WHERE datname = 'template1';
Now you can create a new database by running from regular shell:
su - su - postgres createdb blog;
If you log in back to psql and check the databases, you should see the proper encoding of your new database:
List of databases Name | Owner | Encoding | Collation | Ctype | Access privileges -----------+----------+-----------+-----------+-------+---------------------- blog | postgres | UTF8 | C | C | postgres | postgres | SQL_ASCII | C | C | template0 | postgres | SQL_ASCII | C | C | =c/postgres : postgres=CTc/postgres template1 | postgres | UTF8 | C | C |
Administration tools

Upgrading PostgreSQL
Quick guide
This is for upgrading from 9.2 to 9.3.
pacman -S --needed postgresql-old-upgrade su - su - postgres -c 'mv /var/lib/postgres/data /var/lib/postgres/data-9.2' su - postgres -c 'mkdir /var/lib/postgres/data' su - postgres -c 'initdb --locale en_US.UTF-8 -E UTF8 -D /var/lib/postgres/data'
If you had custom settings in configuration files like pg_hba.conf and postgresql.conf, merge them into the new ones. Then:
su - postgres -c 'pg_upgrade -b /opt/pgsql-9.2/bin/ -B /usr/bin/ -d /var/lib/postgres/data-9.2 -D /var/lib/postgres/data'
If the "pg_upgrade" step fails with:
- cannot write to log file pg_upgrade_internal.log
Failure, exiting
Make sure you're in a directory that the "postgres" user has enough rights to write the log file to (
/tmpfor example). Or use "su - postgres" instead of "sudo -u postgres".
- LC_COLLATE error that says that old and new values are different
Figure out what the old locale was, C or en_US.UTF-8 for example, and force it when calling initdb.
sudo -u postgres LC_ALL=C initdb -D /var/lib/postgres/data
- There seems to be a postmaster servicing the old cluster.
Please shutdown that postmaster and try again.
Make sure postgres isn't running. If you still get the error then chances are these an old PID file you need to clear out.
> sudo -u postgres ls -l /var/lib/postgres/data-9.2 total 88 -rw------- 1 postgres postgres 4 Mar 25 2012 PG_VERSION drwx------ 8 postgres postgres 4096 Jul 17 00:36 base drwx------ 2 postgres postgres 4096 Jul 17 00:38 global drwx------ 2 postgres postgres 4096 Mar 25 2012 pg_clog -rw------- 1 postgres postgres 4476 Mar 25 2012 pg_hba.conf -rw------- 1 postgres postgres 1636 Mar 25 2012 pg_ident.conf drwx------ 4 postgres postgres 4096 Mar 25 2012 pg_multixact drwx------ 2 postgres postgres 4096 Jul 17 00:05 pg_notify drwx------ 2 postgres postgres 4096 Mar 25 2012 pg_serial drwx------ 2 postgres postgres 4096 Jul 17 00:53 pg_stat_tmp drwx------ 2 postgres postgres 4096 Mar 25 2012 pg_subtrans drwx------ 2 postgres postgres 4096 Mar 25 2012 pg_tblspc drwx------ 2 postgres postgres 4096 Mar 25 2012 pg_twophase drwx------ 3 postgres postgres 4096 Mar 25 2012 pg_xlog -rw------- 1 postgres postgres 19169 Mar 25 2012 postgresql.conf -rw------- 1 postgres postgres 48 Jul 17 00:05 postmaster.opts -rw------- 1 postgres postgres 80 Jul 17 00:05 postmaster.pid # <-- This is the problem > sudo -u postgres mv /var/lib/postgres/data-9.2/postmaster.pid /tmp
- ERROR: could not access file "$libdir/postgis-2.0": No such file or directory
Retrieve postgis-2.0.so from postgis package for version postgresql 9.2 () and copy it to /opt/pgsql-9.2/lib (make sure the privileges are right)
Detailed instructions
Note that these instructions could cause data loss. Use at your own risk.
It is recommended to add the following to your
/etc/pacman.conf file:
IgnorePkg = postgresql postgresql-libs
This will ensure you do not accidentally upgrade the database to an incompatible version. When an upgrade is available, pacman will notify you that it is skipping the upgrade because of the entry in pacman.conf. Minor version upgrades (e.g., 9.0.3 to 9.0.4) are safe to perform. However, if you do an accidental upgrade to a different major version (e.g., 9.0.X to 9.1.X), you might not be able to access any of your data. Always check the PostgreSQL home page (http://www.postgresql.org/) to be sure of what steps are required for each upgrade. For a bit about why this is the case see the versioning policy.
There are two main ways to upgrade your PostgreSQL database. Read the official documentation for details.
For those wishing to use
pg_upgrade, a postgresql-old-upgrade package is available in the repositories that will always run one major version behind the real PostgreSQL package. This can be installed side by side with the new version of PostgreSQL. When you are ready to perform the upgrade, you can do
pacman -Syu postgresql postgresql-libs postgresql-old-upgrade
Note also that the data directory does not change from version to version, so before running pg_upgrade it is necessary to rename your existing data directory and migrate into a new directory. The new database must be initialized by starting the server, as described near the top of this page. The server then needs to be stopped before running pg_upgrade.
# systemctl stop postgresql # su - postgres -c 'mv /var/lib/postgres/data /var/lib/postgres/olddata' # systemctl start postgresql # systemctl stop postgresql
Reference the upstream pg_upgrade documentation for details.
The upgrade invocation will likely look something like the following (run as the postgres user). Do not run this command blindly without understanding what it does!
# su - postgres -c 'pg_upgrade -d /var/lib/postgres/olddata/ -D /var/lib/postgres/data/ -b /opt/pgsql-8.4/bin/ -B /usr/bin/'
You could also do something like this (after the upgrade and install of postgresql-old-upgrade) (NB: these instructions DON'T seem to work for 9.2 -> 9.3 upgrades)
# systemctl stop postgresql # /opt/pgsql-8.4/bin/pg_ctl -D /var/lib/postgres/olddata/ start # pg_dumpall >> old_backup.sql # /opt/pgsql-8.4/bin/pg_ctl -D /var/lib/postgres/olddata/ stop # systemctl start postgresql # psql -f old_backup.sql postgres
Improve performance of small transactions
If you are using PostgresSQL on a local machine for development and it seems slow, you could try turning synchronous_commit off in the configuration (
/var/lib/postgres/data/postgresql.conf). Beware of the caveats, however.
synchronous_commit = off
Prevent disk writes when idle
PostgreSQL periodically updates its internal "statistics" file. By default, this file is stored on disk, which prevents disks spinning down on laptops and causes hard drive seek noise. It's simple and safe to relocate this file to a memory-only file system with the following configuration option:
stats_temp_directory = '/run/postgresql'

Flower Care and Conditioning
These flowers are shipped dry and may appear "wilted" when you first receive them. This is natural, as they have been without water for over 24 hours and are very thirsty. The initial hydration process is imperative so your flowers are at optimum freshness and appearance.
Follow the Care Guidelines Below:
- Unpack flowers immediately upon arrival
- Fill a clean container/vase with fresh cool water and add flower food provided
- Remove any foliage that falls below the waterline of your container
- Using a sharp knife or scissors, make a clean cut of at least 1/2" off the end of the stem
- Place the flowers in the prepared container
- Do not place flowers in direct sunlight and keep in a cool location
- Change water and re-cut stems every 3 days
Delivery dates and prices fluctuate with seasonal availability and demand.

text: Tuesday, July 17, 2012 Information and Advocacy Resources Available on Essential Health Benefits APTA's Essential Health Benefits (EHB) webpage provides an overview of this new benefit package, established under the Affordable Care Act, which ensures that certain health plans offered in the state Health Insurance Exchanges (exchanges) provide a baseline of coverage, benefits, and services to their enrollees. Most health plans that will be offered in exchanges, with some exceptions, must cover 10 categories of benefits in order to be certified and offered in the exchanges. Of particular interest to physical therapists is the rehabilitative and habilitative services and devices category. Although rehabilitative services will be mandatory services in most Qualified Health Plans, states will most likely impose annual visit limits, caps, or other restrictions for therapy services as current employer-sponsored plans do. Therefore, it is imperative that physical therapists continue to educate state legislators, state policy makers, and consumers of the value, benefits, and cost savings of physical therapy services.

Maple syrup takes turn toward technology
EAST MONTPELIER, Vt. — The rich, sweet tang of sap being boiled into maple syrup greeted tourists at Burr Morse's sugar shack here this month — along with Mr. Morse, every inch the rural maple farmer in worn baseball cap and syrup-stained jacket, stirring the steaming evaporator with an old-fashioned dipper.
"People want to have a nostalgia trip," said Mr. Morse, 65, a seventh-generation maple syrup farmer and the patriarch of Morse Farm Maple Sugarworks. "They want to see something natural, like taking sap from a tree."
Forty years ago, Mr. Morse would snowshoe into the forest with his father to collect sap from galvanized buckets and load them onto a tractor. The farm has not changed much since then, but the winters have. So has the maple syrup ritual itself.
Scientists say the tapping season — the narrow window of freezing nights and daytime temperatures over 40 degrees needed to convert starch to sugar and get sap flowing — is on average five days shorter than it was 50 years ago. But technology developed over the past decade and improved in recent years offers maple farmers like Mr. Morse a way to offset the effects of climate change with high-tech tactics that are far from natural.
Today, five miles of pressurized blue tubing spider webs down the hillside at Morse Farm, pulling sap from thousands of trees and spitting it into tubs like an immense, inverse IV machine. Modern vacuum pumps are powerful enough to suck the air out of a stainless steel dairy tank and implode it, and they help producers pull in twice as much sap as before.
"You can make it run when nature wouldn't have it run," Mr. Morse said.
His greatest secret weapon is a reverse-osmosis machine that concentrates the sap by pulling it through sensitive membranes, greatly increasing the sugar content before it even hits the boiler. The $8,000 instrument with buttons and dials looks like it belongs in a Jetsons-era laboratory more than in a Vermont sugarhouse. But it saves more fuel and money than every other innovation combined. With it Mr. Morse can process sap into syrup in 30 minutes, something that used to take two hours.
Scientists project that climate change will eventually make New England less suitable for maple forests, but that the trees will continue to thrive in Canada, which even now produces more than 80 percent of the world's maple syrup.
So an increasing number of maple producers are betting on technology.
The biggest United States maple farmers have expanded their production acreage and are tapping more trees than ever before: the total was 5.5 million taps last year, compared with slightly over 4 million taps 10 years earlier.
As a result, United States maple syrup production hit a new high in 2011. In Vermont, the top-producing state, sap yield per tap has risen over the past decade.
Maple farms are installing equipment that may take 10 years to earn back their cost in syrup sales.
"Technology has greatly increased that ability to make a full-time living," said Matthew Gordon, the executive director of the Vermont Maple Sugar Makers Association. "It's not merely the supplemental income it once was."
But these changes have drawn questions about sustainability. Purists criticize the "techno-syrup" trend, saying it alters syrup's rustic flavor and sucks the life out of maple trees.
Wrong on both counts, says Timothy Perkins, a plant biologist who directs the Proctor Maple Research Center in Underhill, Vt., the world's foremost academic center for the study of maple and maple syrup.
"It's pretty darn hard to kill a tree by over-tapping it — we've tried," said Dr. Perkins, leading a tour through the center, past long counters with beakers, microscopes and segments of maple, as well as vacuum gauges, spouts and pliers.
The center's scientists, who are employed by the University of Vermont, have altered the face of the industry many times over with inventions to make sugaring more efficient and sanitary, including a special plastic spout that prevents tap holes from drying up or collecting bacteria.
The center's studies have found that as long as maple farmers follow tapping guidelines, maple trees can supply much more sap than was previously thought.
"It's like the tree is a sugar-filled straw, with water and sap that we're sucking right out of the ground," Dr. Perkins said. "The amount we can get out of the soil is unlimited, but the amount of sugar in the tree is limited."
As for taste, a chemical analysis of maple syrup processed with and without reverse osmosis concluded that some flavor compounds had been affected. But when the Proctor center conducted a sensory evaluation with a panel of top maple syrup tasters, no one could tell the difference. Dr. Perkins estimates that as much as 90 percent of the syrup now sold passes through reverse osmosis, adding a new dimension to the official "state flavor" of Vermont.
Dr. Perkins believes that a few more technical improvements could slightly lengthen the maple season, which usually ends in early April. Eventually, though, tubing and vacuums will not be able to overcome the effects of winters with too few extended cold snaps. Weather that is too warm can give late-season sap a "buddy" flavor — a taste that has been compared to sweaty gym socks.
Mr. Morse keeps a couple of "pet buckets" — old-fashioned metal ones — on maple trees to show tourists how it used to be done. He also burns wood chips instead of oil to power the evaporator, his only other concession to the past.
"It keeps our image intact," he said.

Help regulate their fellow students' behaviours
- "What would we want to be prefects for? It'd take all the fun out of life."
- —George Weasley[src]
A prefect at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is a student who has been given extra authority and responsibilities by the Head of House or Headmaster or headmistress. One male and one female student are chosen from each house in their fifth year to act as prefects, and would continue to be prefects in their sixth and seventh years until they leave school. Thus, there are approximately six prefects per house, and twenty-four prefects in the whole school at one time. The Head Boy and Head Girl may be chosen from among this number and may not be replaced, but, like with James Potter, the Head Boy or Girl does not have to be a prefect.
The Weasley family is noted for having had several prefects among its sons - first Bill, next is Charlie, then Percy and finally Ronald Weasley. Percy in particular is known to have been mercilessly persecuted by his brothers Fred and George, who once bewitched his Prefect's badge to read "Pinhead", and were once quoted by Ron as having "always said that only prats become Prefects".
- Mrs. Weasley: " I don't believe it! I don't believe it! Oh, Ron, how wonderful! A prefect! That's everyone in the family!"
- George: " What are Fred and I, next-door neighbours?"
- — Upon learning that Ron was appointed a Gryffindor Prefect.
Prefects are allowed to take House points away from other students in their own house as a penalty for rule-breaking, but they are not allowed to take points from other prefects or students in other houses. Prefects can give detentions as a form of punishment.
Prefects patrol the corridors of the Hogwarts Express on the way to school and attend a meeting in a special prefects' carriage where they are instructed by the Head Boy and Girl. They also patrol hallways to ensure that other students are not breaking curfew. There is a bathroom with a large, pool-like bath on the fifth floor of Hogwarts Castle that is reserved for prefects and Quidditch captains. It is located at the fifth door to the left of the statue of Boris the Bewildered. The only known password to this bathroom is "pine fresh", which was used during the 1994–1995 school year.
Prefects have other responsibilities as student leaders. They show the first years the way to their dormitories on their first day of school at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and supervise the decorating of the castle for Christmas (and presumably other events as well). They also watch the younger students when bad weather keeps them indoors over break times.[1]
Once a student becomes a prefect, they have a better chance of becoming Head Boy or Head Girl; however, a student is not required to earn the former honour in order to earn the latter. This fact was exemplified in the knowledge that Remus Lupin was a Gryffindor prefect but James Potter was later appointed the Head Boy.
Prefects are given a badge; the colours are the colours of the prefect's House and/or silver[2]. They are supposed to wear the badge on their school uniform. The badge would have the letter "P" on it while the Head Boy's badge would have "Head Boy" on it, and the Head Girl's with "Head Girl". If the prefect is on his or her house Quidditch team, he or she would not be required to wear the prefect badge on their Quidditch robes.
Hermione Granger was a sensible prefect, and took the role very seriously. Ron Weasley was a little less serious about it, to the point of neglecting several rules. In fact, he was extremely surprised to be chosen as a prefect as he expected Professor Dumbledore would have chosen Harry. Dumbledore thought Harry would have too much on his mind and gave it to Ron instead. Ron received a letter from his brother Percy, stating that Ron might risk losing his badge by associating with the apparently dangerous Harry Potter. This may mean if the prefects cross a certain point of abusing their powers, they might have their position revoked.
Draco Malfoy and Pansy Parkinson abused their positions greatly, to the annoyance of Hermione Granger, by being uncharacteristically harsh towards first years and deducting points from students who do not strike their favour. In his sixth year, Draco refused to live up to his prefect duties any further, in preference of his Death Eater mission of assassinating Albus Dumbledore. This could mean that students have the right to reject the position of prefect any time they desire, or that Draco was punished for rejecting his obligations.

Behind the scenesEdit
- There was some confusion about the point-taking ability of prefects after the original release of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. It had previously been stated in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets that prefects could dock points, but in a scene in the first printing of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Ron Weasley, Ernie Macmillan, and Draco Malfoy all either state outright or imply that prefects are not allowed to take points. This was pointed out as a mistake, and subsequent printings had a slightly different version of the dialogue, making it clear that prefects can take points, just not from other prefects.
- Quidditch captains are given similar rights as the prefects, like the password to the prefect's bathroom, but are not allowed to dock points.
- In 1994, Harry Potter first experienced using the prefects' bathroom on the fifth floor of the Hogwarts Castle. Despite the fact that he didn't have the privilege at that time, Cedric Diggory, a Hufflepuff prefect, gave him the password and permission to use it prior to the second task of the Triwizard Tournament.
- In the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, the subplot of Ron and Hermione being made prefects is dropped, and is likewise omitted from the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
- In the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Nathan Lubbock-Smith portrays a prefect of an unidentified house.
- It is also unclear as to who has the power to appoint a Prefect, the Head of House or Headmaster. Dumbledore had stated in the fifth book that he did not want to make Harry a Prefect because he felt he had too much already on his his mind. Yet Draco Malfoy and Pansy Parkinson abuse their position greatly and were biased towards their own house. Possibility in their appointment may be influence or recommendation made by Severus Snape, who favoured Slytherins due to them being in his house, or the two were simply the least biased and most suitable when compared to the rest.

Before we begin, check out this bit of comedic genius.
OK. This just in:
I will be giving a talk at the Unity Temple in Kansas City, Missouri on March 4, 2010 at 7:30 pm. This is sponsored by the Kansas City Zen Center. There's more info on the 2010 Tour link over there to your left. Or, as always, just click on the words "2010 Tour link." See how easy I make things for ya!
Which brings up another point I ought to make. And that point is that as of the end of February I will no longer be a resident of Santa Monica, California. Nor of California at all.
It's a bit complicated, what I'm doing. See, with my tour schedule filling up as it is (see link above) it doesn't make much sense for me to live pretty much anywhere until the touring stops. Last year I stayed a California resident and paid rent on a place here I did not even live in for five months. This, I have decided, is the definition of "clinically insane." So I'm not doing that anymore.
When the dust settles somewhere around late June or even into July, I plan to live in or near Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill, North Carolina. This, I hope, will allow me to take advantage of gig offers I've had East of the Rockies which, up till now, have not worked out due to my living in So Cal. Until then, though, just call me "Homeless Brad-o," for I shall be without an abode.
For those viewing on Facebook, the link to the embedded video I put up is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hl22IHX-3Hc
