saw them at the State Palace Theater in New Orleans in 94. Great show in a great venue

believe or not maggie you live in a city, in a county, in a state and 90% of the government you can see, touch and feel happens to you at one of those three levels. but...but..but our democracy!
his first answer was correct he works for the county, and you my man are a blithering idiot!
you are a maroon
The word "Federal" was not mentioned in the original question
Hint: State and local governments also have 3 branches of government, and every employee is overseen by one of those branches

The other thread showed the "high levels" of contamination to be a few parts per billion.
The use of immunohistochemistry to detect truly minute portion of contamination is mind boggling

"deep below the ocean" it was
Shouldn't that be deep within the ocean

Same question, best source for high concentration chlorine in bulk?
The remarkable thing is that the feds under Obama demanded exclusive oversight of all things immigration so that they could exclusively refuse to act, and prevent states from picking up the slack
In that analogy, he knew about the robbery beforehand, road in the van with the robbers, and left with them after the act.
But while in the bank, he shoved a microphone in the face of the tellers, derisively demanding they explain why the bank didn't deserve to be robbed
Oh, and refused to leave when asked to by the manager.

re: What is your position on freedom of the Press?

A lot of wha you’re saying is in direct conflict with decades of, if not longer, jurisprudence on this topic
Sadly true
That's why I added the "should not",
The "press" is the printing press, and freedom of the press means the freedom of mass communication/expression without state interference
Journalists are not "the press", they are fellow citizens who have created a vocation by exercising our universal right of mass communication
Being a journalist does not (should not) offer special consideration, including a waiver to perform otherwise illegal Acts
ETA: in this regard the internet is the ultimate modern manifestation of the printing press, and any effort to limit free expression on the internet should be viewed in that light

Willie certainly was a great songwriter, to the benefit of many great performers
And Some of his hits like on the road again are pretty vanilla
I would recommend that anyone seeking to explore the depths of his talent listen to The Red headed stranger album beginning to end
Or just about anything he and Waylon recorded together
And if I can't sing like willie, Waylon will do

Willie Nelson
His voice melts me
I read somewhere that his is the most recognized voice in the world. Not sure if true. But it is certainly singular.

I have avoided legal trouble my whole life by using that one simple trick, the "technicality" of not violating the law.
Having climbed the Wallace Memorial tower in Stirling, overlooking the Omega shape of the river with the Marshland in the middle, and reading the true story on how he outsmarted, divided, and defeated the English Army at that site, I have always wondered why they didn't just portray the actual events in the movie. it was pretty bad arse
We are very limited down here in terms of pears for fresh eating. Several good 'canning pears"
For fresh eating, Southern Bartlett and Biscamp have made me very happy. I have cuttings if you can get your hands on a Cleveland / flowering peair to use for rootstock

Even consider removing the top row of stone to make the exposed roots a feature

Magnolia trees are just big evergreen shrubs. it sounds like you have the room for them. Several varieties available to give a mixed look. Irregular spacing because eventually some die and then the missing ones become obvious
If variety/cultivar not named, it's probably a seedling, with low probability of being anything exceptional
But put it in the ground, give it a year or two to get established, and buy some cuttings of a good Southern variety to graft onto it one spring
Here is one site that I have bought from before for other fruit. Plenty of other sites online with a Google search

Let us know what you find from the nursery, and if you come across some varieties known to be suitable down here

Like apples and most other fruit, there are individual varieties with variable characteristics in size of plant / fruit, taste, production, and tolerance of warm winters.
We are at the southern end of their range, and I am pretty sure many of the typical varieties grown further north would languish or not fruit down here, very similar to our very limited options for apples.
Did your tag indicate which named variety you bought?
I recently read that the newest varieties far exceed the old classics for taste. There just hasn't been a lot of effort in breeding until recently, with an explosion of new improved varieties

I put a few in the ground 8 to 10 years ago that I grew from seed here in br.
About 4 ft tall now, surviving but hardly thriving. One put on flowers last year.
Will probably topgraft some low chill hour varieties eventually.
I haven't really researched what those might be. What variety did you buy?
Put some in the ground in zone 6B Virginia about 20 years ago that have created broad thickets and produce every second or third year. I've never been there at ripening, and have never tasted pawpaw.

If you graft Scion from mature pecan trees onto your seedlings, it will skip adolescence and begin producing in 5-8 years. Pick a good one
You can just take the threaded front lens cover off and adjust parallax yourself on a Leopold
Until completely frozen..
while the mixture remains at 32°F until freezing is complete, the final solid ice can certainly get colder than 32°F
I just hope it keeps raining and stays wet

The rape stones were awful, and although the story arc probably required a way to communicate back to earth eventually, like in SG atlantis, it happened too early in the series and the associated story line was terrible
The underlying mystery of the aliens that resurrected the civilians left behind on a planet, the ongoing pursuit by hostile aliens, and the hodgepodge of characters themselves which were getting pretty well fluffed out kept me watching
it definitely had a different tone than all of its predecessors. But I was disappointed when it got canceled.
When was the last time the so-called scifi channel had a self-produced scifi show?

I am a bit of a garden bug with quite a few fruit trees in my Baton Rouge orchard.
I have failed growing Haas, Lila, Joey, favorite, Mexicola, and 1 simply labeled "Hardy avocado".
I have tried planting with rootball high, painting with white latex paint, shading for the 1st year, and protecting over the winter. None survived 2 calendar years
if anyone finds a variety that does well here, please pass that info along

I've grown wonderful, sweet, and another I can't recall, here in br
The wonderful is still in the ground 15 years later. One of these days i'll yank it out
Fruit are rare, small, and mildew long before edible
