Lenten rose?

Some one I know has a Lenten rose and I have a perfect place in the garden for one, but its February and you can only sow the seeds from September to November, I don’t fancy waiting that long so is there a faster way of propagation?



(there isn’t really a good place to take a cutting the only type of stem really is a stem of flowers with a couple of small leafs, if I took a leaf of and treat that as a cutting (the leaf is like on a stem) would it strike and shoot from the sides?

Lenten rose?
The Lenten Rose (Helleborus orientalis) can also be propagated by division.



Alice B. Russell, retired Extension Specialist, NC State University says

it can be propagated by division in spring:

http://www.ces.ncsu.edu/depts/hort/consu...



Michigan State U. Extension states:

"Division is done in spring or fall but the roots are brittle and easily injured."

http://web1.msue.msu.edu/imp/modzz/00000...



This source from Floridata (Tallahassee, Florida) says to divide in late summer or autumn.

Yikes!!! If grown from seed ... seedlings take three years to bloom.

http://www.floridata.com/ref/H/hellebor....



"Plants can be divided in the spring taking care not to damage the brittle roots and making sure that part of the crown is left with each piece."

Here's how:

Do rose hair tarantulas bite?

I just got a rose hair tarantula %26amp; i was wondering if anyone knows if they bite.......or any information i can get on them would be great! Thanks in advance.

Do rose hair tarantulas bite?
They can bite, it hurts somewhat like a bee sting from what I've heard..

It's best just to be careful when you go to handle them, there are ways to tell if they just don't want to be held..

I highly recommend you read through this care sheet on them since most pet stores and online care sheets are totally inaccurate and fail to take into consideration where this tarantula is from. Most places tell you to mist them regularly, but, these tarantulas are from a very dry climate. Misting them regularly can cause fungus on the book lungs..

Here's a great link on Grammastola rosea..

And, another one on handling..

AND, finally more basic tarantula info if you find yourself addicted to the little guys..

A Rose For Emily by William Faulkner --- Thesis statment needed?

I am writing an essay for my English 12 class, and we need to come up with a thesis analysing a poem or short story. I chose to do A Rose For Emily by William Faulkner. I NEED A THESIS, HELP!!

A Rose For Emily by William Faulkner --- Thesis statment needed?
In the short story, A Rose for Emily, William Faulkner creates sympathy for Emily through narratation, setting, and circumstance.



This lines up your whole essay.



1. Intro

2. Narration- third person, you can't see why Emily killed him, can sound more sympathetic rather than demented

3. Setting- the South created Emily, made her prideful and alone

4.Circumstance- her father died, her wealth diminishes, Homer wants to leave, etc.

Blue Rose Of Sharon?

Has anyone had success with the blue version of the rose of sharon in zones cold as 4?

Blue Rose Of Sharon?
I live in a cold zone 5A. It leans towards a zone 4. Rose of Sharon does fine. In a zone four I would plant it in a place that gets a little bit of shelter from the wind. A wall, near taller shrubs or trees, etc... and it should be OK. Denise http://thegardenersrake.com
Reply:I think it's an up grade from the Purple Rose of Cairo, but I don't think it can match the Tulip of Toledo with the new Pentium chip.
Reply:I had one last a few years. Then I think we had a drought and lost it. I think the purple does much better and is more tolerant of our weather extremes. I also have a white one that does great.
Reply:This link says zone 5-9

Not being a rose of sharon fan I don't plant them but all of my neighbors do.

http://www.bluestoneperennials.com/b/bp/...

Check the hardiness zone

put your zip code along with hardiness zone.

Example:hardiness zone (your #)00000

You might be on the fringe of zone 4 and it could be close enough to plant one.

http://classygroundcovers.com/page----pl...
Reply:If you can try to make a micro-climate for it it should be ok. By this I mean someway growing it so it will be proteced adn think it is in a higher zone.

Sometimes this can be done by growing it close to the house especially if it also has an evergreen or fence to the side so the winds don't get to it.



good luck
Reply:Not had any experience with the Blue Satin, which looks gorgeous but don't know the hardiness rating of it. It is supposed to be as true blue as they get.



I have Blue Bird, the old variety, and it is pretty blue. Very fertile though, and as a surprise, this year in the old stand of Blue Bird, a couple of young plants bloomed for the first time--one a true, beautiful pink, and a pure white one! I don't even think that there is another Rose of Sharon in my neighborhood, guess it is just a gift of Nature. I garden in Zone 6b
Reply:Rose of Sharon (Hibiscus syriacus) is hardy in USDA hardiness zones 5-8. They are pretty easily damaged by colder weather, and definitely respond poorly to drought, especially in the fall. I'd look as some newer cultivars, that have been released from the National Arboretum. They are reported to be 'hardier' than older cultivars. I don't see a 'blue' one, but perhaps you might find one you like?

They are named for Greek myths (Aphrodite, Minerva, Diana, Helene... not sure if there are others).



I live in USDA hardiness zone 5, and have no problems with the cold here (drought yes). If you heavily mulch the plant, maybe protect it with a wind screen, you might have luck. I would definitely say, eventually the weather is likely to catch up with you.



Good luck-

I hope that this helps

Illini rose bowl shocker?

Illini rose bowl shocker?
Excuse me Haters, USC haven't anything since Vince Young came in ur house and took whats his and thats exactly what Juice Williams is going to do.

BTW Reggie Bush and Matt Lienart are both weak Bust in the league and it is far beyond the injuries. They were just 2 overated college players who stole Hiesmen awards.

Go FIGHTING ILLINI!!!!!Go FIGHTING ILLINI!!!!!

Go FIGHTING ILLINI!!!!!Go FIGHTING ILLINI!!!!!

and 4 all of those doubters it was the same doubters who said they wouldn't upset 1 Ohio st.
Reply:When pigs fly.....



There is a 13.5 point spread in favor of USC.

Here's the reasons why there's a spread that large for a BCS bowl game-



1. Illinois has no passing game. making them one dimensional.

2. Yes Juice is a good QB, and will develop over time, but USC did a very good job in containing the best spread QB this year, in Dennis Dixon.

3. USC is top 3 in Rush defense, and is very experienced all around.

4. USC has the one of the quickest defenses around, while the Ilini has an experience offensive front, they haven't seen a defense this quick this year.

5. Illini's pass defense is not exceptional, meaning Booty and his much improved WR's should get plenty of yards, and opportunties to go deep.

6. USC offense as a whole is good all around w/ their blue-chips.



Personally, Illinois should never have been chosen for any BCS bowl. It would have been nice to see a USC-Georgia or -Oklahoma game.



If the Illini do upset the Trojans, it would be because the Trojans did it to themselves by not taking this game seriously. But I think they've learned from their Stanford loss.
Reply:I'm liking the Illini myself. Maybe not kill, but beat, yes, it is possible.
Reply:Okay, first IlIini did not beat Ohio State, Ohio State beat Ohio State in that game. Please know what you are actually talking about.



What this means: Yes, if USC makes alot more mistakes than usual, Illinois has a turnover margin or +3 or more and plays near perfect than Illinios can win.



This is how Stanford beat USC and how Illinois beat Ohio State, similar to Oklahoma - Colorado.



If USC and Illinois played 20 times, I would give odds that the Illini would win 3 times. So here we have game number 1, will this be one of the 3? Could be!



Now since this is a bowl game I am going to increase the odds from 15% to 30% and here is why! USC has a ton of blue chips with pro prospects and $$$$ on the mind. They actually run a pro system that translates to the pros with success so thier ability to play is already tangible to scouts and frankly the SRs have a lot more to lose should the suffer injury.



Illini runs the spread. So they have a lot more to prove, with a lot fewer players as potential drafts picks and history says NFL success out of a spread system. So this is the end of the line for a lot more of these guys.



This is my intangable

Who rose quicker to superstardom Madonna or Britney?

I will just go ahead and say I am the one who said Britney did.

Just hear me out.

I am NOT saying "who has better talent" - in my opinion thats Madonna.

I am NOT saying "who will be around longer" - also in my opinion thats Madonna

I am NOT saying "who do you like better?" - thats Madonna by a long shot as I can't stand Britney's songs...(Toxic is good but thats it)



BUT what I am saying is, in my opinion she came out of nowhere to stardom much faster than Madonna did. In fact I remember Madonna being around as a B-list star for a little bit before she broke out.



So in your opinion, and once again this is not "who is better" but, who rose to superstardom quicker? Maybe I'm wrong?

Who rose quicker to superstardom Madonna or Britney?

Reply:I see your point, it is true because brittney was probally just in the mickey mouse club and probally something else and she did come out fast when madona was comeing out but not that strong but she did come out lol.

Floyd Rose Trem on my Strat?

Can I put a Floyd Rose tremolo on my Fender Strat (Mexican made) without doing any woodwork?? if not how much might it cost for a professional to do it for me?? Thanks!

Floyd Rose Trem on my Strat?
Your Strat will need to be modified for the Floyd system. The system extends back towards the tail and some routing must be done so the tremelo will work. It wouldn't be hard to do, if you have some woodworking experience and want to refinish the part that gets routered.
Reply:im not so sure about installing a new floyd rose, but you can buy pretty much the same guitar(fender mexican standard hss strat) but with a floyd rose in it.

Nope. Usually Floyd Rose tremolos require additional body routing behind the tremolo, so you'd need to fill in those spaces behind the tremolo with wood before you could install a standard Strat-style tremolo.


How do i connect a ceiling rose to mass of cables?

i had disconnected all cables from a ceiling rose for putting up a new light,but unfortunately didnt mark what was connecting what,now im trying to reconnect the ceiling rose back,i have 4 main cables coming out from ceiling each have brown,blue,yellow/green cables and also 1 single brown and blue cable their own,could anybody please give me some advice how to connect the ceiling rose back,thanks.

How do i connect a ceiling rose to mass of cables?
first switch off mains.

red wires x 3 go together in loop

green/yellow x 3 go to earth terminal.

neutral is black x2 blue x1

switch=brown x1

as you have mixed up the wires , it may be better to get a electrician to do the job.

there are 3 black wires

2 blacks are neutral 1 =switch which one ?
Reply:you need to find out ,what is the hot one , this is the one that provide the power, to the light, the other is the switch , the green/ yellow is the ground, prevents shocks ,

one could be a ceiling fan, wire, poss the blue one . runs the fan.

all lights run off just two wires, the rest is for your switch

i would use a old light fitting, to see what brings o nthe light . that way, you will know what is hot .

on your old light fitting, you maybe have some old wires, maybe a black or brown , perhaps this maybe the way to go , just takes time to work out


Jalen Rose?

who else thinks that the Suns signing Jalen Rose was a waste of millions and the worse move i've seen them make in recent years?



well to me it is a their worst move with the exception of trading joe johnson for boris diaw had he stayed the suns would have a title already

Jalen Rose?
signing him for millions?



he was bought out of his New York contract, and signed with Phoenix for the veterans minimum, which is less than 1 mil. he was a steal!



then again, a total waste of his year. he would have been much better utulized on basically ANY team that would put him out there.



but, his contract is up. and he can go wherever he feels free to. I'm surprised more people aren't talking about him. I know he isn't a franchise player. but he can be the 6th man that can help elevate a team to a championship level, much like Stackhouse did for Dallas.
Reply:don't forget that the knicks bought out jalen's salary, and the suns only pay him 1.5M, which isn't so bad for a proven vet. he just didn't get PT in the season, which isn't totally his fault. The Banks deal (about 3.5 per) is much much worse
Reply:Don't forget the signing of Marcus Banks for millions last summer. They'll feel the financial strain once they're due for new contracts.

its most definitely deer or rabbits, the pesky buggers ate my roses also. Without putting a small fence around them I don't know what else you would do to keep them from eating them.(maybe shoot em j/k) The flowers and leaves will come back though as long as you protect them or the animals will just keep eating them.
Reply:Deer and rabbits will eat the foliage of your roses. If the root

system is strong the plant should come back on it's own after

awhile.

Axl Rose - ego bubble, G'n'R gone down the toilet?

My rose bushes will not blossom why?

i have used rose fertilizer and plant food on them. they grow nice but no flowers.

My rose bushes will not blossom why?
Check the fertilizer you're using...My guess is that it contains a lot of nitrogen...OK quick fertilizer 101-There a always three numbers on any fertilizer you buy; the first is always nitrogen, the second is always phosphorus, and the third is always potash...Nitrogen, makes a plant grow up, and turn green, phosphorus, promotes strong root growth, and blooming; and potash is an all around tonic...When fertilizing blooming plants I fertilize with a normal fertilizer the first 2-3 times, then I switch to a "bloom booster" these products vary considerably; look for a product where the second number is higher than the first...Also it sounds like you're OVER fertilizing...plant food, and fertilizer, are the same thing...you might want to stop feeding(fertilizing)...
Reply:Are they getting full sun? Don't feed them anymore for 6 weeks or so.
Reply:roses need a TON of full sun...i had one small one do that, and had to transplant it...


My rose bushes acting strangely?

I have several rose plants in my front yard. normally, all the care they need is to be kept watered, and they will continue to bloom through the summer. this year I did something different. just before they bloomed, I plucked off all of last year's dead flowers. They bloomed up real good,. but now that those blooms have died off, there are no new buds on any of them, just the green bushes remain. Should I have left last year's dead flowers on? Why would removing them cause a one time blooming this year? or is it something completely un-related to removing last year's dead flowers?

My rose bushes acting strangely?
no, as a matter of fact, you need to continue to dead head. Get some sharp pruners and clip the stem of each dead rose down to the next set of five leaves. Keep in mind that the direction the five leaves are pointing is the direction a new branch with rose buds will grow. You can shape your bush by carefully selecting which five leaves are pointing which way. Anyhow, do this for each stem and you will promote new growth of both foliage and roses. Also, take along a bucket of water with bleach so you can sanitize your pruners in between rose bushes.
Reply:try cutting the spent flowers of as soon as they fade, that is called deadheading, and actually the roses will reward you.I am unsure as to what type of rose you have,but the general rule is to go 2 to 3 leaflets down and cut at an outward facing bud at a 45 degree angle away from the bud. See if this helps, then again if you are in a drought area like us, water might help.
Reply:You are doing the right thing by removing dead flower - Its

sounds to me like you may just need a fertilizer.

A Rose in the Wind by Anggun lyrics (With Indonesian spoken lyrics)?

I come across the English lyrics for A Rose in the Wind by Anggun, but I'd love to have the correct lyrics for the spoken bits thats in Indonesian. There is also a section where the backup singers sing in Indonesian.. but I can't catch it.



If anyone has any idea where I get these lyrics, please let me know. Thanks!

A Rose in the Wind by Anggun lyrics (With Indonesian spoken lyrics)?
kan ku ingat s'lalu sorot mata itu

Dihantu cemburu, dalam tatapnya berjuta duga

Teringat selalu sorot mata itu

Tak pernah tahu di dalam dada hatiku terluka



* ku ingin kembali

Tanpa resah hati dari semua tanya

Dan tak akan kupendam lagi

Cinta ini dari semua yang menyangka

Dan tak berhenti



Kan kucoba mengerti semua pertanyaanmu

Tentang perasaanku walau semuanya biasa adanya

T'lah kucoba mengerti dan jelaskan dirimu

Semua perasaanku dengan dirinya, dia yang kucinta



**kuingin kembali

Tanpa resah hati dari semua tanya

Dan tak akan kupendam lagi

Cinta ini dari semua yang menyangka

Dan biarkan aku kembali

Tanpa semua sangsi yang s'lalu meraja

Di relung hati



Lepaskan diriku dari semua duga

Dan biarkan aku terbang ikuti malam dan pagi

Jalan masih jauh yang harus aku tempuh

Dan harus aku coba meraih asa, cita dan cinta



Lepaskanku dari semua duga

"A Rose for Emily"?

I need to write a paper for English class. For the paper, I have to use two types of critical theory to analyze "A Rose for Emily." I have read the story, I am just having trouble using critical theory to analyze the story. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know! (I can't use Psychoanalytical Theory). Thanks!

"A Rose for Emily"?
Critical Theory is an unusual way to analyze a story. It is pretty complicated and what it really means depends on who writes about it. I think literary would be more appropriate.



However, you could use:

Reception and Reader-Response Theory

Genre Criticism



Those two would work for the story.

You primarily express your love through friendship and caring.

This doesn't mean your romantic relationships are platonic - they just start that way.

You need a lot of freedom in relationships. So if you do happen to send roses, they don't mean much.

Floyd Rose Trem?

I wanna buy a guitar with a Floyd Rose or simular type of tremmelo. Any suggestions of relativily cheap (cost not quality) guitars i could get one on?

price range?

Floyd Rose Trem?
Well you have a wide range of Ibanez guitars and their models above some $300 have Floyd Rose licensed trems, but they differ a bit - the upscale models have Japanese-made Ibanez modifications that are in fact much better than the original FR. The Korean models are lighter and comparable to the original FR, with some improved functionality. Some Washburns include FR as well, but no manufacturer offers a guitar with FR for very little money. Washburn may be your best bet, and also look at Floyd Rose guitars, they are about $400 but string changing is such a breeze that the sheer absence of that torture is a reward. Naturally, you'll do all your shopping online, musiciansfriend.com or music123.com, to save hundreds.
Reply:An ESP LTD M series or most starter Ibanez will usually come with a Floyd Rose.
Reply:I bought a Rogue with a F.R. licenced trem. on it. It probably cost about 350.00 new, but I got it at a pawn shop, like new for 200.00 It is a very nice and playable guitar.

Single Rose or a bunch of Roses?

Going to pick up my girlfriend for the school dance tomorrow, and I was wondering whether I should get her a single rose or like a bunch of roses? We've been going out for about 3 weeks now.(I'm 17, she's 16)

Single Rose or a bunch of Roses?
1 if your kinda likin her.

bunch if you really like her and have known each other for a while.
Reply:Single
Reply:For your age one will do.



But to really make her happy get her favorit flower instead.
Reply:First of all, that is so sweet. Too many times guys lack the romantic quality :) Good for you. I think that if you really, really care for her (as much as you possibly can in 3 weeks), go for the bunch. If not, definitely go with one 1 or 3. You cannot go wrong with a dozen...ever. Good luck!
Reply:Depends on the standard where you live. A single rose is very effective, unless most guys bring 2 dozen. Check the grocery store or Walmart for a good price on a bigger boouquet. Do dress them up a little--take off the walmart wrapper, and add a bow.
Reply:In this case what i would do is give her a single rose at the door when you pic her up. However, have a bunch of roses waiting in the back of your car (make sure she doesn't see them!!!) and then give the rest of them to her when you drop her back off at home. When you walk her to her door after the dance have the boquet of roses behind ur back. Just b4 you get to the door, stop her with a tug of her hand and give her the rest of them. You see by doing this the single rose b4 the dance will have a great symbolism and at the same time leave her wanting more. Then by giving her the rest at the end of the night, it will be the icing on the cake to a wonderful evening. OHHH but i forgot...after you give her the rest of the roses..and i mean like immediately after, cup her cheek with ur hand and kiss her gently on the lips. This will leave a long lasting impression in her mind.
Reply:well i can give u an idea when i was dating my hubby he gave me one rose for 1 month and 2 roses for 2 momnths and so on ....i thought that was very cute and sweet....
Reply:I think you should get her 3 roses have them make it into something that you can pin on her and tell her that each rose is for the each week that the two of you have been dating. Have fun at the dance, and i think you are very sweet.
Reply:single rose



if you get her a bunch she's gonna think you're going too fast and are crazy and psychotic





not that there's anything wrong with that...
Reply:I find one to little and a dozen too much. Three. Whenever I buy my wife flowers I always buy three with a little baby's breath and some other leafy things are it looks great.



Have fun at the dance.
Reply:for only having gone out for three weeks, a dozen might be a bit overwhelming. you should call the flower place early tomorrow morning and see if they can maybe deliver her a nice small arrangement before you get there, and then bring her a single rose :o)
Reply:A single rose...for now. Maybe a bouquet after a while. Good luck and have a great time!!!

A rose for emily by william faulkner?

i am writting a research paper over a rose for emily about elements and themes. my themes so far are death and fear of abandonment. anyone have any ideas to where i can find sources to support those themes?

A rose for emily by william faulkner?
Maybe, look into other themes for that book. There's a symbolism Faulkner provides for each of his characters representing different cultures after the Civil War, for example: Emily's father represents the dying Southern aristocracy. You'll find a lot more sources of information defending your point of view here.
Reply:Check SparkNotes.com
Reply:No, not any sources. My personal experience was upsetting when my friend explained this to me. At that time in my life I was very religious, not a relationship with God, and could not tolerate that situation. I opted out of the class and found another teacher.



To me this is just a "glorified", perverted way to promote a fetish. How is this literature and if a story like this was in Hustler, Playboy, Penthouse then it would have been considered filth of the perverted kind.

The sentence "Rose is a rose is a rose is a rose." was written by Gertrude Stein as part of the 1913 poem Sacred Emily, which appeared in the 1922 book Geography and Plays. In that poem, the first "Rose" is the name of a woman. "A rose is a rose is a rose" is probably her most famous quote, often interpreted as "things are what they are".


Black rose as a gift?

I was given a black, or rather dark red, rose 12 yrs ago for my 17th. do u reckon that that was a romantic gesture? u don't just go round giving roses, or do u?

Black rose as a gift?
this is some reading for you

http://www.shabbir.com/romance/rosemean....



A black rose means death and a red rose means love. If the guy gave you a dark red rose, I think he was telling you he was in love with you. Besides that it was 12 yrs age on your birthday. Why does it really matter now?



Edit - just read you dilemma. If his wife knows and he is a family friend there is no problem. If he was your teacher then it was inappropriate unless he gave everyone a gift on there birthday. Very creepy and I understand why you are freaked out. As a teacher he is not allowed to give you a personal gift and a red rose has alot of symbolism. Sounds like he was trying to be romantic.

Climbing Rose Bush budded but now looks dead after cold spell.?

I planted 2 climbing rose bushes on a trellis in my yard last May...they were well established and full in the fall and should flower this year. The vines began to bud leaves and then we got a cold spell (central IL). The leaves all died and now we have had about 2 consecutive warm weeks and there are no new buds of foliage. Any experience with this? Is the plant dormant or dead? How to tell? Thanks.

Climbing Rose Bush budded but now looks dead after cold spell.?
It may take awhile before it puts out new growth. Or it may be dead. You can scrape the bark and see if there is any green, living tissue underneath. Or you can wait until mid May and see what happens.



This has been a possitively freaky year. A warm January, followed by a pretty darn cold February. Then an early warm up, with temps in late March/early April in the 70's and even 80's (20 to 30 degrees above normal), then followed by an unprecidented freeze in April - not a brief one, but 7, 8 days, getting down to the low 20's...at which point covering really doesn't help much.



The unseasonable warmth spawned early growth which simply had no chance against the unprecidented extended freeze.



Roses got hit the worst, in my opinion. It most likely have some branch kill, as well as new growth kill. Waiting and seeing what it does it really all you can do. Don't water it more than normal. Just give it time.



Some roses may have been killed completely. Some may have been killed down to their graft, and may produce new growth from low on the plant. In which case, when they bloom, you will most likely see the red rose of the root stock rather than whatever rose it was that you purchased.



I expect to hear a lot of "My rose bush changed color!" this year....



Again, all you can do is wait and see.
Reply:It will be just fine, make sure you cut back any dead branches, and keep tending to it as you did before, just be patient. If you really want to be sure it is alive, all you have to do is take your fingernail, or a knife and scrape a piece of the bark back, if it is moist and green it is still living.

Gypsy Rose at Walsall Market, Staffordshire, England?
This is not meant to be a stupid answer so don't write it off please. This stuff you are talking about is in the paranormal area and if you delve into it you will definitely find some answers. But it is deceptive. Its all a lie! There are spirits and evil spirits who will deceive you. God says in the Bible that you are not to use diviners/fortune tellers or those who contact the dead. It will lead to madness! So please talk to a minister, a priest and stop your search in this spirit sphere or you will go mad just as God has said. There is hope for you in the word of God.

Book Rose Madder...will they ever make the movie??
The problem is most of SK's books make bad movies



His books just don't translate well onto film apart from maybe "The Shining" and "The Green Mile"



Others like "The Stand" were a disaster. Teh stand was especially disapointing for me as I saw so much potential for an awesome movie there, and it is a great story.



My advise - if you really loved the book don't hope for a movie - casue the film will be dissapointing
Reply:I doubt they will, even King himself says that "Rose" is the least read of any of his books.


Desert Rose?

We have a desert rose, have had it for a few years now. It's very healthy, long green stems with nice green leaves, but it has never flowered! Is there something else we have to do to it to get it to bloom? It's sitting in a room where it gets indirect sunlight, but the room is nice and sunny most of the day.

Desert Rose?
Roses like to have some food once in a while in order to bloom. Look for a fertilizer with the words "rose food" in the title. Roses also do need a bit of direct sunlight every day in order to bloom. They will survive in bright light but probably not bloom. Good luck!
Reply:a desert rose is not a real rose it is a succulent and needs to have a dry spell to initiate blooming

4-6 hour of direct sun Report It
Reply:It needs direct sunlight. Better to put it outside when the weather is warm. And give it flowering/rose fertilizer.


Axl Rose get's his head back In the game yeah?

Do you think that Axl Rose (Guns N' Roses - Axl Solo Band If you will) has got his head back In to finally releasing Chinese Democracy after last years tour ended and about 6 months of silence he has finally responded Into the Dr. Pepper bribary and also Announced that GNR are under new management.





What are your thoughts?

Axl Rose get's his head back In the game yeah?
Axl releasing CD is no different than Sting or Bryan Adams releasing an album.

Reply:True GNR ended when Slash moved out... I think who'd love THIS GNR band, and Axl has already lost his edge!



I'm a fan of 90's GNR!
Reply:I'm sure that fans of Axl will run out and buy the album. Fans of Guns n Roses...maybe not.

All that this album has done is give everyone huge expectations, and alot of people are really dissapointed.
Reply:The Album might be released, but that doesn't mean his head's back in the game. I'm not sure where his head is, but it's never been and never will be in the game.
Reply:who really cares about the stupid wanker?
Reply:his head was never in it and i will be buying the cd if and when it ever comes out..
Reply:I think China will have democracy before that CD is released.



Reminds me of all the hype of the never-released "Smile" by The Beach Boys. Brian Wilson finally released it last year or the year before as a solo project.



I agree. Axl is a wanker. Anyone could have fronted GNR. He was lucky.
Reply:No I doubt it, you can't fix crazy.
Reply:Does anyone even still care about the much fabled 'Chinese Democracy' album?

It will probably tank, due to it's high expectations.

Compass Rose?

Can anyone help me read a compass rose?

Compass Rose?
-the arrow that useally pionts up and has a N on it means north

-the arrow that useally pionts right and has a E on it means east

-the arrow that useally pionts left and has a W on it means west

-the arrow that useally pionts down and has a S on it means south
Reply:As mentioned in the two answers above, compass roses indicate direction. However, you may have noticed most nautical charts have two compasses roses, one inside the other. The outer rose is based on true north - North on it points to the north pole. The inner rose is based on magnetic north (where your compass points, the islands of northern Canada). The difference is refered to as magnetic variation which is expressesed as an angle east or west and will vary depending where on the earth you are. (land people call this same idea "declination") Chart compass roses are often used with a parallel rule. For example, lie any edge of the parallel rule from where you are to where you want to go. Walk it so that one edge goes through the x in middle of both compasses roses. You can now read your bearing magnetic on the inner rose and your true bearing on the outer rose. Point a hand baring compass or orienteering compass so that the magentic bearing is inline and it will be pointing at where you want to go, or if you are in a ship with a ship's compass turn the ship until the magnetic number you read is presented on the ships compass and you will be heading in the right direction.



Happy navigating.
Reply:That's a pretty vague question, but the short of it is, north is marked with an N, south is straight down, east is right, west is left.

Northeast is halfway between north and east, southeast is halfway between south and east, southwest is halfway between south and west, and northwest is halfway between north and west.

Now comes the (relatively) tricky part. North-northeast is halfway between north and northeast, east-northeast is halfway between east and northeast, east-southeast is halfway between east and southeast, south-southeast is halfway between south and southeast, south-southwest is halfway between south and southwest, west-southwest is halfway between west and southwest, west-northwest is halfway between west and northwest, and north-northwest is halfway between north and northwest.

Degrees are as follows:

N=360/0

NNE=22.5

NE=45

ENE=67.5

E=90

ESE=112.5

SE=135

SSE=157.5

S=180

SSW=202.5

SW=225

WSW=247.5

W=270

WNW=292.5

NW=315

NNW=337.5

N, E, S, and W are usually the biggest on a compass rose. The next biggest are NE, SE, SW, and NW. NNE, ENE, ESE, SSE, SSW, WSW, WNW, and NNW are the smallest points.

Books + "Rose and the"?

Does anyone remember the books that had children that looked like Cabbage Patch kids but weren't? I remember one that was called "Rose and the cookie contest" or something like that. I was wondering if anyone knew what they were called?

Books + "Rose and the"?
This sounds so familiar but it's infuriating that I can't dig up any information on it! Do you have any more details you can add? Are you absolutely positive the title began with "Rose"? When did the book come out (approximately) and was this American, British, etc.?



ETA: Sorry, I've searched again with your additional details and am still turning up nothing. I guess I was thinking of something along the lines of the Care Bears, Shirt Tales, or the Get-Along Gang from the early 80s rather than later. I hope you find it!

My rose hair tarantula is making a lot of webs all over her cage this is the first time shes done this?
What do you need help with? She's a tarantula that just got a sensitive shiny new skin. She's enjoying herself! That's just what they do.
Reply:I have a rosehair...

Just about all tarantulas are a lot more active and very hungry after a molt. With the webbing though, I almost wonder if your's might have molted into a mature male..

They are a lot more active then females. They also will build what's called a 'sperm web'. It almost looks like a little tent up against the side of the container that they'll crawl under upside down.

Even if yours is a male, Rosies tend to live a decent amount of time. I have a rosie male going on 3 years since his ultimate molt. Males won't molt again once they mature, they just eventually die whereas females can live over 20 years.

Pete rose hirkine???

i recently found a baseball signed by pete rose in my attic. underneath his signature, it says: HirKine. his sig is in cursive, but the other word is in print. any ideas?

Pete rose hirkine???
Brett is correct.



Rose usually signs "Hit King" or "4256" after his name.



Apparently not legibly.

.
Reply:When Pete Rose married, he did a very unlikely thing. He changed his last name to his wifes last name. His wife's last name was Rose, and he married her 4 years before he started playing in the Major Leagues. His name before Rose was Hirkineseter. He signs his baseballs with Pete Rose, Hirkine, to shorten Hirkineseter.
Reply:I believe it's Gaelic for 'put $20 on the reds"



(honestly though, it probably means to say 'hit king', but there was no room for 'but it took me 2500 more at bats to do it')





Edit; Tony, not sure if you are joking, and understanding that this isn't always 100% correct, but taken from wikipedia

Should rose buds that have bloomed and are dry be pruned off the bush immediately?

I planted some rose bushes 2 weeks ago and the buds that were there when i bought them have bloomed fully and are now dried out and limp. Do i prune them or let them fall on their own?

Should rose buds that have bloomed and are dry be pruned off the bush immediately?
Yes. They not only look ugly but they are also wasting energy from the plant which is going to try to make seeds from them. Snip them off or pick them off and you will get a lot more buds and flowers (called "deadheading" when you get rid of the old blooms).
Reply:yes you always want to deadhead them. Also take the hips off if any that we forgotten appear. They waste the plants energy and you will get less flowers.
Reply:It's called deadheading. Prune dried bloom back to the first place you see another bud coming.
Reply:Yes, in fact remove them before they are completely dry. Take a mason jar or mayonnaise jar and add about a cup of canola oil. Add the petals to the oil and allow to age for a few weeks. Strain the petals out of the oil and you will have a wonderful skin/massage oil. The practical reason for removing or deadheading is that if you allow the roses to begin to go to seed, all bloom with stop. The plant will put its energy into making rose hips rather than flowers.
Reply:Have had roses a long time and dead-heading them will keep blooms on the bushes until the first frost of Autumn. Dead-heading is also good for other flowers that have a long growing season, for example Coriopsis, Chrysanthemums, Zinnias, Petunias, Purple Cone flower......just to name a few.
Reply:Yes, remove them (it's called "deadheading") if you find them unslightly. You can clip them off or often just pop them off with your fingers. However, the longer they are left the more likely they are to develop 'rosehips' which are a great source of calcium and are used in a variety of ways http://www.indianspringherbs.com/rosehip...
Reply:Yes prune them back to the next outward facing bud. I have posted a link for you to read. It gives very good detail on how to prune.
Reply:Prune them off. It will help the bush put it's energy into more blooms.
Reply:Prune them back to just above the first set of leaves with 5 leaves on them. Doing so will stimulate new growth.
Reply:yes-so the bush will keep flowering
Reply:they should be pruned from the plant but it does not have to be immediate. It will help control disease , improve flowering and the appearance.
Reply:cut them down at a 90 degree angle with a sharp blade. this promotes more growth. buy a book on roses or take a class from your local nursery -deadheading is easiest problem to solve with roses.


Polar rose off center?

Do you guys know of an equation with a polar rose curve not centered on the origin? Thanks very much.

Polar rose off center?
i could try with the four-leafed rose...



say

r = cos(2θ)

r = (cos2θ - sin2θ)

r3 = r2 (cos2θ - sin2θ)



then

(x2 + y2)^(3/2) = (x2 - y2)



to translate it...

we have

((x-h)2 + (y-k)2)3 = ((x-h)2 - (y-k)2)2



then convert it back to polar...



((rcosθ-h)2 + (rsinθ-k)2)3 = ((rcosθ-h)2 - (rsinθ-k)2)2



unfortunately... by this time... the extraction of the function in the proper polar form is not easy...



§
Reply:A simple r = cos(theta) curve will result in a circle of radius 1/2 centered about (r,theta) = (1/2,0), which is not centered (0,anything)

Miniature Rose - Should I repot to a larger pot?

I live in So. California, and just bought a pretty pink miniature rose. It's outdoors now. Should I give it full sun? I want repot it in a larger pot. How soon should I do this? Thanks.

Miniature Rose - Should I repot to a larger pot?
I have had potted miniature roses in both Indiana and North Carolina growing in the landscape. They always did fine. It is too late to put in the landscape now, but next spring would be ideal. They love the sun. If kept indoors, you can repot at any time.
Reply:What the directions say about sun-follow. You can plant them directly into the soil of your garden-with proper fertilizer, etc. Take care. To replant it, please wait until March or April to do so.
Reply:You can report it in a larger pot. Please give it full sun atleast for 7 hours. and put some light fertilizer like cow dung etc.

and water profusely.



All the best.
Reply:Actually, it would be better off in the ground, but as long as you put it in a very large pot it will be fine. Miniature roses can actually get quite large. Anywhere between 3-4 feet and are intended to be landscape plants so if you repot it then go for a really big one like a half barrel or something because their roots need room to spread. The flowers are small, but the bush can get pretty tall. Since you live in So. Cal, there is no rush. These roses can handle anything a average sized rose can handle. Just make sure you give it at least 6 hours of sun light and water it at the base to avoid mold and black spot.

Good Luck

-the arrow that useally pionts right and has a E on it means east

-the arrow that useally pionts left and has a W on it means west

-the arrow that useally pionts down and has a S on it means south
Reply:As mentioned in the two answers above, compass roses indicate direction. However, you may have noticed most nautical charts have two compasses roses, one inside the other. The outer rose is based on true north - North on it points to the north pole. The inner rose is based on magnetic north (where your compass points, the islands of northern Canada). The difference is refered to as magnetic variation which is expressesed as an angle east or west and will vary depending where on the earth you are. (land people call this same idea "declination") Chart compass roses are often used with a parallel rule. For example, lie any edge of the parallel rule from where you are to where you want to go. Walk it so that one edge goes through the x in middle of both compasses roses. You can now read your bearing magnetic on the inner rose and your true bearing on the outer rose. Point a hand baring compass or orienteering compass so that the magentic bearing is inline and it will be pointing at where you want to go, or if you are in a ship with a ship's compass turn the ship until the magnetic number you read is presented on the ships compass and you will be heading in the right direction.



Happy navigating.
Reply:That's a pretty vague question, but the short of it is, north is marked with an N, south is straight down, east is right, west is left.

Northeast is halfway between north and east, southeast is halfway between south and east, southwest is halfway between south and west, and northwest is halfway between north and west.

Now comes the (relatively) tricky part. North-northeast is halfway between north and northeast, east-northeast is halfway between east and northeast, east-southeast is halfway between east and southeast, south-southeast is halfway between south and southeast, south-southwest is halfway between south and southwest, west-southwest is halfway between west and southwest, west-northwest is halfway between west and northwest, and north-northwest is halfway between north and northwest.

Degrees are as follows:

N=360/0

NNE=22.5

NE=45

ENE=67.5

E=90

ESE=112.5

SE=135

SSE=157.5

S=180

SSW=202.5

SW=225

WSW=247.5

W=270

WNW=292.5

NW=315

NNW=337.5

N, E, S, and W are usually the biggest on a compass rose. The next biggest are NE, SE, SW, and NW. NNE, ENE, ESE, SSE, SSW, WSW, WNW, and NNW are the smallest points.
