Hi Barrie, Most of the field grass around here is Bermuda grass (Cynodon dactylon) and browns during the winter. Often there is a little green all winter from various winter grasses like rye but the drought has kept them down. The citrus itself was kept well watered. The dry hardiness myth is far over rated and unproved in my opinion. The only case I have personally seen where plant dehydration builds cold hardiness is with some succulents like agave. Otherwise I think very much dehydration would weaken a plant making it less hardy and dry ground freezes much deeper killing roots. Being totally dormant is the key to hardiness in my opinion and that comes from regular cold nights near freezing. However being slightly dry could help induce a drought dormancy helping with cold hardiness in warmer winter areas like the Gulf Coast. Thank's for your reply.

reform temple dress etiquette

Hey Lisa ~ It's good to "see" you ;o) We're going to a Bat Mitzvah in late September and I was just discussing our attire this past weekend with my cousin. She's the grandma of the Bat Mitzvah girl and is very "up" on what to do and what not to do (BTW, she's Conservative and keeps kosher). I was showing her the dress I had ordered for the event, which is sleeveless. I told her I would be getting a lightweight shrug to wear over the dress. She thought I was wearing a shrug because of the temple service, and she said that I didn't have to wear anything over the sleeveless dress because it was in a Reform temple. I told her that I was planning on wearing a shrug because I would feel more comfortable in a little cover-up because sleeveless might be pushing it because of my age and (ahem) arms LOL. We also discussed whether or not it would be a hose or no-hose day. She's even going to go bare-legged if it's hot, and believe me, if she can go bare-legged I know it's "correct". She knows her etiquette. You can certainly wear a casual skirt and no hose. Enjoy! Your son has really grown and he is absolutely adorable!

@Rina Thanks for the info, I haven't read some of that actually! Interesting that it says it likes to be watered regularly though. I'll see what happens! I might try again if this one doesn't root successfully. @bernardyjh thanks for the suggestion, I just found out that they ship to Canada and free shipping when $30 or up, so I might take a look at this for sure! @Lars Thank you for the advice, if only I could move my plants outside... I live in apartment that is 12th floor, and no balcony :(. May I ask you what kind of soil you grow them in?

if u don't want to go the book route, how about a savings bond?? u pay $25 and in 15-20 (i forget which) years its worth $50., i know its doesn't sound like a lot but we did that for our kids since birth. for my oldest it paid half of her college bill in junior year. had the whole family on board and everyone did it when they were too little realize they really didn't "get" anything.. everyone always got them a little something to go with it, so when they we knew they should get presents, they had something to open.. the amounts go as high as $500 i think. did it for every occasion, it really adds up!!! $500 bond, $1,000 in allotted time plus interest if u hold onto them past the mature date....

Temple Grandin has done several interviews and tv shows and she is a remarkable woman. Clare Danes's portrayal is certainly worthy of an Emmy. Temple Grandin has sever autism but still managed to earn a PhD in animal science.

this is a link to her web site.

I believe she has asperger's - the debate is alive and well as to whether aspergers is autism or not.

I caught the movie on TV a couple of months ago. Clare Danes was great in it. Hers is an interesting story and I recommend it if you see it in your area. I don't remember the name of the movie, but it could be her name.

by all means watch the movie if you can...Claire Danes did an excellent job portraying her and Temple is indeed one remarkable women...(so is her mother for pushing her to beyond her limits when her Doctor thought she should be locked up and forgot about)
