Comments (7)I was about 5mos old when this happened - Brown V. BOE. I can't begin to know where this country would be had this not happened. I'm so happy that I was only 5mos old and didn't have to experience it, but I'm so greatful to those that did. Yes, ronm80, there have been some scary moments in this country's history. Even though we don't always celebrate them in the way it was intended, I'm glad we have holidays to help keep us in the know about our history and heritage. "ON MAY 17, 1954, the Supreme Court issued a ruling that it hoped would irrevocably change the social fabric of the United States. Asking whether segregation on the basis of race deprives minority children of equal educational opportunities, Chief Justice Earl Warren and his colleagues emphatically stated: We believe it does. In spite of nationwide resistance and reservation, even among those who penned the decision, the Brown ruling, more than any other of the last half century, altered the landscape of American society."...See MoreGeez, I turn my back for a year and look what happens!
Comments (17)Karen, here is Sue's Ribs. EVeryone that has made them raves about them. Roadhouse Grill Baby Back Ribs 2 large racks pork baby back ribs salt coarse ground black pepper SAUCE: 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 1/4 cup minced fresh onion 1 1/2 cups water 1/2 cup tomato paste 1/2 cup brown sugar 2 tablespoons honey 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce 1 3/4 teaspoons salt 1 teaspoon liquid smoke flavoring 1 teaspoon Jim Beam whiskey 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper -- coarse 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder 1/8 teaspoon paprika To make the ribs, cut each large rack of ribs in half so that you have 4 half-racks. Sprinkle a light coating of salt and a more generous portion of coarse pepper over the top and bottom of each rack. Wrap the ribs in aluminum foil and bake in a preheated 300 degree oven for 2 1/2 hours. As the ribs cook, make the sauce by heating the oil in a medium saucepan over medium/high heat. Saut� the onions for 5 minutes or until they start to brown. Add the remaining ingredients and bring mixture to a boil then reduce heat and simmer for 1 1/4 hours, uncovered, or until sauce thickens. Remove from heat and set aside until the ribs are ready. Preheat your barbecue grill. When ribs are finished in the oven, the meat should have pull back about 1/2-inch from the cut-ends of the bones. Remove the ribs from the oven, let them sit for 10 minutes or so, then remove the racks from the foil and put them on the grill. Grill the ribs for 3 to 4 minutes per side. They should be slightly charred in a few spots when they're finished. Brush barbecue sauce on the ribs while they're grilling, just before you serve them. Don't add the sauce too early or it will burn. Cookingrvc (Sue)...See MoreGladioli succession planting - what happens next year?
Comments (6)1)When you plant the corms of one cultivar alltogether, the bigger corms will be the first to bloom. This explains the observation as provided above "they are still blooming at different times." 2)If you plant them in succession, this will provide the earlier sets with a longer growth period, resulting in bigger corms. This would mean that these should bloom, according to 1) somewhat earlier in the following season. 3)Whether you plant them alltogether or in succession, the environmental quality will have the greatest influence on the performance in the following season(s). Gladioli require a lot of sunlight, and they extract a great advantage from a substrate which is well prepared and fluffy. Everybody who is as fortunate as to grow their Gladioli with great success, without picking them up after the growth period, is fully entitled to dismiss this recommendation in respect to the substrate, the others are well advised to prepare the "dirt" well and to dig the crop in fall. I grow my Gladioli exclusively in 12 Liter buckets, for saving them from Voles, but this is not the only reason....See MoreRelated Professionals
