How to Grow Globe Artichokes

Tuesday, July 31st, 2007

By Terry Blackburn There are two types of artichoke, Globe and Jerusalem. The globe is a perennial with a thistle-like head complete with scales surrounding a fleshy frond or heart, which is the part with the most flavour. The Jerusalem artichoke is grown for its tubers, which are produced in the soil like potatoes. This too is a perennial, though is more conveniently grown by digging up the tubers each season and replanting the best specimens the following year, as in the case of potatoes. Soil Preparation The soil must be well drained to grow artichokes; it should be moist in the summer but dry in the winter. They require a sunny position for the unopened flower heads have more flavour when they are grown in full sun. A sheltered position is also required as the flower stems grow tall and are easily blown over. In the autumn dig the ground over to a spades depth, incorporating manure and some well-rotted compost at the rate of a bucketful to the sq. yd. then leave the ground rough to over winter. Fork the ground level in spring, adding fish manure at a rate of 3 oz. (76mm) to the sq. yd. This dressing should be repeated each year in March or early April. Planting The plants should be purchased from a reliable nurseryman; you can later increase your stock plants by severing the side growths or suckers, which will later develop at the base of each plant. These should be cut from the parent plant when they are about 9 in. (228mm) long, taking care that there is a part of the old plants root at base. Plant the new shoots in April in rows 3 ft (90cm) apart, allowing 3 ft. (90cm) between the plants. If you garden in the North then you should take your suckers during November and pot them up individually into 6 in. (152mm) pots, protect them from frost until the following May, when they can be re-planted into the bed. General Care Keep down the weeds, gently hoeing between the plants reducing the surrounding soil to a fine dust to about in. (12mm) layer of loose soil over the surface of the ground. If the artichokes are not growing sturdily by June, top dress with dried blood to promote better growth. When autumn arrives the plants should be given some protection against the on coming winter frosts. Straw is excellent for this purpose and it should be laid over each plant and a net drawn over the top and secured will keep the straw in place. If the straw becomes too wet, it should be replaced at intervals throughout the winter. Artichoke plants can last for as long as 12 years or more though it is good practise to replace the plants after 5 or 6 years to continue vitality and vigour in your stock. Harvesting The flower heads are not produced the first year, in the early summer of the second year, the large thistle-like heads which develop should be cut just before they open. Cut the main head, known as the king head, first. Secondary growths will then develop, each of which will produce a tender flower head. These are cut when they are the size of a large hens egg. For better flavour, cut no more than 1 hour before you intend to cook them. Terry Blackburn. Internet Marketing Consultant, living in South Shields in the North-East of England.

A New Race Has Appeared on Earth

Monday, July 30th, 2007

By Seer Rhykan They are the Indigo children. Indigo childrens immune systems are many times stronger than that of an average human. This will enable them to survive the coming plague that has been sent to Earth via a chicken. These people are here now. They do not advertise their presence. When the time for them to act arrives the Viral Marketing system that they are setting up will have given those who need to know all the information they need. They will not need to refer to any conventional marketing sources for information. Through the Astral Body and Role Playing they are being kept informed. A pretty little girl who lives deep in the heart of Latvia enjoys talking. She talks nonchalantly about her nightly travels across the Universe in an Astral body. Her father is quick to make a request: “Please pay no attention to what she is talking about, she just loves making things up.” In his heart he knows that what he says is not true. It is hard for him to admit to himself that she is a member of the new race that will replace his. The father is not surprised to find out that his daughter has been aware of the notion of Astral bodies since she was five. He loves his daughter very much. He always knows what is wrong when he asks her for help repairing his old tractor. “I do not know how she does it but she is always knows what is wrong with the machine,” he says. The story seems familiar. Here is another case of an Indigo child, a phenomenon that has become common lately. Beware the Theet O Vac. The year 2012 has special significance for the Indigo children. According to predictions of the Maya, the so-called “Great Transition” will be taking place in 2012 after the Sun and Earth form a straight line pointing to the center of the Galaxy. The above position will trigger the demise of the 3-D model of the world. The earth dwellers will be given the opportunity to live in a 4-D world. But the offer applies only to those whose mind has expanded to an essentially new level - the Indigo children!

Writing the Best Dating Profile

Thursday, July 26th, 2007

By Janet Reiss Online dating has taken dating to a whole new level. There is instant access to people and profiles, photos and videos, and their ideas, beliefs and opinions. People are less inhibited when they are online. You can really find out so much about a person from their initial profile. You will know right away if this is someone of interest to you. That’s what makes online dating the tool to instant gratification. No more blind dates. No more wasted time. You can be selective in your choices. There are so many people looking for love, relationships and commitment. Is there someone out there looking for you? Honesty is the most important item when considering writing your profile. This is the first impression. You dont want it to be the last impression. Lying about your age, sex, preferences, demographics (height, body type, religion, etc) is a big mistake. Would you want to date someone who is not honest from the start? Check your spelling? Not everyone majored in English, but try to find the right words helps. Again, this is a first impression. We all make mistakes, but take pride in your profile. Keep your profile neat and clean. Selling sex is not the way to a persons heart. If you choose to show your naked body to others than at least pick a site that promotes nudity and sex. The casual dating sites frown on nude photos and videos. Use discretion. You are more than your photo anyway. Choose a photo that is clear, not blurry. Show your best side. Publish more than one photo and promote your interests through your photos. Tell enough about yourself to attract interest, but leave some out to allow for mystery. Others will either find you interesting and attractive or not. Please dont include personal, financial, or identifying information in your profile (i.e. bank account info, phone numbers, personal emails, address, etc.) Have fun with your profile. Be real and be honest, but most of all have fun. Writing a profile when you are in a good mood is the best time. Would you want to meet a person whose profile is full of drudgery and depression? Your personality will shine through when the mood is right. Online dating doesnt have to be a job. It can be fun and exciting. So where do you go from here. Take the tips and try to create a profile that is attractive, concise, and honest. Have fun with it and when you see it published be proud of who you are promotingyou! Janet J.

The Zen of Fishing

Sunday, July 15th, 2007

By Allen Bohart One of the best ways to relieve stress is to take up a hobby. This is effective because it allows one to take his/her mind off the things that are stressing them such as work, family, and other life situations. Fishing is an outstanding hobby to take up if your aim is to relax and enjoy life a little. Getting Started Fishing gear can cost anywhere between $10 and $10,000. A novice can keep expenses down by buying combination outfits that include a rod and reel, line and lures. These are available at sporting good stores, tackle shops and online. A good resource for finding these items can be found at http://www.thefishingbobber.com. The number choices available in fishing gear can be bewildering and intimidating. In just starting out, keep it simple. A spinning reel is versatile, easy to use and fun to cast. A baitcaster is mechanically different, but serves similar functions. With both types of reels, you can fish with artificial baits called spinners, spoons, and plugs, as well as with natural baits such as worms. Fly rods and reels used with artificial “flies” that mimic insects on which fish prey, present anglers with more of a challenge because of the greater difficulty of casting the line. Remember, the measure of how successful a person is in fishing is whether they have a good time. The idea is to relax, and not necessarily to catch a whole bunch of fish. Actually catching fish, in fact, is a bonus and not an end in and of itself, at least not for the casual fisherman. According to the American Sportfishing Association, the most common reason people fish is to relax. Imagine yourself out on the dock of a lake far from civilization with nobody around except you and the fish. Its early in the morning and the mist is still rising over the water and you can still see your breath in the air. There is no responsibility, no noise of traffic, no smell of pollution, and no boss to answer to for the time that you are escaping to your new hobby, fishing. Now is that a relaxing vision, or what? That, my friend, is the Zen of Fishing. Allen Bohart is a fishing fan and enthusiastic writer for about any subject that interests him. He is also co-owner of The Fishing Bobber, a site for and about fishing enthusiasts of all levels.

Going Into Trade

Saturday, July 14th, 2007

By James Monahan Going into trade is not as easy as coming up with a ready capital and plunging head on towards your first sale. There are hundreds of things that you should consider before deciding to pursue the trade project that you are aiming for. And no stones should be left unturned. After all, going into trade is not some practice session that you can join in and then leave behind relatively unscathed. When you go into it, you have to be fully committed and fully-armed for the battle. You just cannot afford to lose! Here are some of those things that should be in your trade check-list to guide you in your decision. Capital Though money is not the be-all and end-all of a trade plan, there is no denying the fact that huge amount of money must be raised to start the business from the ground and to keep it going. Capital is the primary consideration that one must think of. Without enough capital, a business will have little chance, if not none at all, of flourishing. When raising capital, one must not only set aside enough to start the project off but also a portion that will be used for maintenance and emergency purposes. This is especially true with people going into the manufacturing trade where huge order will necessitate huge amounts of money that will not be fully returned until after the goods have been, delivered and paid for. Location Location actually depends on the kind of trade project that you have in mind. Some business can survive in the trunk of car or even in the sidewalks. Some business start from the living room of a house or in a garage. Business, which does not deal with much manpower can actually be home-based. This is a huge savings for you as you need not have to lease a location for your business. Some business however need a good location especially those that offer service to people or goods that people have to buy. Examples of trade projects like these are restaurants, groceries, newspaper stands and even lemonade stands. The location is very crucial for these kinds of businesses because it will determine the number of people who are able to see and access the goods and services that you are offering. Time Going into trade is serious business. It takes commitment and time to make it work. While there are some business that do not really demand so much time and can be done on a part-time basis, others demand full-time attention. Before you start off your business, assess how much time you can actually devote on the business. If you feel that you cannot give your 100 percent, then there is no sense in pushing through with your trade project. Half-baked ideas and attention have no place in any business. Manpower Whatever the trade project is, whether it is involved in selling, manufacturing or juts plain offering a service, you need someone to help you with the business aspect. This is especially true with business that involves selling and manning a specific area. On the manufacturing side, employees are also needed to produce the goods that are being sold. In some ways, having a partner in trade can be a good thing as the partner can provide the time and the manpower that you are lacking.
