It's one of the English Ivy cultivars, Hedera helix '24 Karats'. From the collection of Ivy at the Buffalo(NY) Botanical Garden. I grow a number of different one's, but don't have this one presently. Mine are grown in pots, hanging baskets and on toparies. I'm somewhat paranoid about planting Ivy in the garden, since many of the lazy neighbors have allowed it to become a nuisance in their gardens and it climbs trees, where it transforms into an Adult form, flowers and produces berries. Birds then scatter the seed everywhere and it becomes invasive. My property is mostly woodlands and a bird sanctuary, so you can imagine the problem I have with seedlings. not only from Ivy, but all berried plants! Not all are exotics, many are native plants. Here's another view of the same plant. Rb

You need to start over. And are you sure you bought a CD-RW and not just a CD-R? Also, you can only re-write a CD so many times before it becomes corrupt. The files you originally wrote to CD are protected and probably "read only", also check what preferences you have checked on the Nikon and ScanDisk card (for what it's worth, I have two Nikon D80 and a couple ScanDisk cards-not to mention at least 4 other digital cameras and enough SD/flash cards to flll a landfill-dating back close to 10 years). Your only choice is to download them to your desktop (or someplace easily remembered for a minute) and rewrite the CD without any read/write restrictions, which can be found in properties. Also, are you deleting the files on your camera and SD card when you download to CD or your computer? If not, you have probably run out of space. Another thing, that Nikon "Picture Project" software, if you are using that, is a pain and not worth installing. It could be contributing to your problems. What program "thinks" it's your default photo editing program? That could also be causing problems. You say you are using Olympus software but a Nikon camera, did you load the Nikon software too? All these camera manufacturers have their own proprietary software (and websites), you don't need it or want it. It's better to go out and buy a copy of photoshop than have a bunch of proprietary photo editing programs on your computer, unless you know how to over-ride them, including Windows Picture and Fax program.

You can only use it once and then it's gone so I can't see where it was on my dell, but seems to me that in start > all programs there was a dell choice and in that there was a recovery listing. If you did not get a printed manual with the computer there is one on the hard drive. If you don't see it in the start > all programs menu search for 'manual' and you will find it. In the manual it will tell you exactly how to make the recovery disk. By the way, since you can only make one I made a copy of mine. cd's have been known to fail. If I were paranoid about it I probably would make a half dozen copies.

I used a large plastic food grade container that I usually keep extra flour in. I sliced the cabbage on a mandoline-type slicer - very thin - layered it with salt and used my plastic potato masher to pound it down and get the juices flowing. I did have to add some extra brine - 1 cup boiled water mixed with 1 t. kosher salt and let it cool. When all the cabbage was sliced and pounded, I topped it with a couple of well washed cabbage leaves and a small pottery plate to keep the cabbage submerged below the brine. Then I added a glass canning jar filled with water and a zip bag filled with brine to weight down the plate. I set it in my unheated laundry room - the container was set in a large plastic bowl in case there was overflow. The temp should be around 60 F to 65 F. I read that above 75 F it can go bad and below 50 F it won't ferment. I have a thermometer in the laundry room and opened/shut the door to the kitchen as a means of maintaining the right temp. I really thought it was not going to turn out because we have some warmish days the last few weeks.
