The best time to plant and transplant rhizomatous iris is late July through September. Iris loves the heat and drier weather of summer and the summer dividing will reduce the incidence of bacterial soft rot. Most rhizomatous iris should be divided every three to five years. If your iris patch is producing very few flowers, it's time to divide and conquer. When transplanting iris, first cut back the leaves to about one third of their height. Lift the entire clump with a spade or digging fork.


Division of Siberian Iris
Each division was placed in itâs new location in a hole at least two to three times the size of the root ball: The foliage was cut down to about 4-6 inches so the plant could focus most of itâs energies on root growth: BOOM! One Siberian Iris became five and an empty spot in my bed was quickly filled. These will be mulched a bit more and will be well watered for the next month or so to ensure they get off to a nice start: Soon after, another Iris became four divisions and I filled in another bare area in one of the beds: Iâve still got four more to divide but that was all that could get done this morning.

Ovulation and the Menstrual Cycle Period
The luteal phase (days 14 through 28) is the time from when the egg is released (ovulation) until the first day of menstruation, when you get your period. It is a structure that grows in the ovary where a mature egg was released at ovulation.


Ovulation and the Menstrual Cycle Period
The follicular phase (days 1 through 13) is the time from the first day of menstruation until ovulation, when a mature egg is released from the ovary. It's called the follicular phase because growth or maturation of the egg is taking place inside the follicle, a small sac where the egg matures.


Ovulation and the Menstrual Cycle Period
The Menstrual Cycle and Ovulation. The time of ovulation is one of the most important things a woman should understand about her body since it is the determining factor in getting pregnant and preventing pregnancy. The process can be confusing and somewhat overwhelming when trying to understand.


What Happens During Your Menstrual Cycle
The endometrium is the inner lining of the uterus and this comes out as your menstrual flow. In addition to endometrial tissue, your menstrual flow also contains blood and mucus from the cervix and vagina. When you're pregnant, the endometrium thickens and fills with blood vessels that mature into the placenta.

Client-Centered Therapy by Rogers: Techniques & Definition
Client-centered therapy differs from other forms of therapy because client-centered therapy does not focus on therapeutic techniques. What's most important in client-centered therapy is the quality of the relationship between the therapist and the client.


Client-Centered Therapy by Rogers: Techniques & Definition
When people enter client-centered therapy, they are in a state of incongruence, meaning there is a difference between how they see themselves and reality. Having an accurate self-concept (the thoughts, feelings, and beliefs people have about themselves) is key to client-centered therapy.

I was surprised to see a flood of juices run out across the cutting board, and when I ate the meat it seemed very dry. My experience was an example of why it's important to let meat rest after cooking. Allowing any meat to restâwhether steaks, thick chops, whole turkeys, briskets or pork buttsâhelps keep meat more moist and improves the texture & tenderness of meat. How Resting Meat Works.


7 Myths About Cooking Steak That Need to Go Away
Myth #5: Don't season your steak until after it's cooked!. The Theory: Salting your meat early can dry it out and make it tough. The Reality: A dry surface is a good thing for steakâ that moisture has to go away for proper browning anyway, so the drier your steak is to begin with, the better it'll brown in the pan.


The Food Lab: The Importance of Resting Meat
By far the easiest and most foolproof way to test if your meat has rested long enough is the same way you can tell if your meat is cooked properly: with a thermometer. Ideally, no matter how well-done you've cooked your meat, you want to allow it to cool down until the very center has reached 120Â°F (49Â°C).


-
When the meat has finished cooking, they allow it to rest in the foil in a dry cooler or insulated Cambro box for several hours where it reabsorbs some of the accumulated liquid before being sliced or pulled for presentation to the judges.


The Food Lab: The Importance of Resting Meat
To prove this is not the case, all you need to do is weigh the steaks before and after cooking. Aside from a minimal amount of weight loss due to rendered fat, the vast majority of weight loss comes from juices that are forced out of the meat. The steak loses around 13 percent of its weight just during cooking.


The Food Lab: The Importance of Resting Meat
1 After 5 Minutes of Resting: The outermost layers of meat are down to around 145Â°F (62.8Â°C) and the center of the steak is still at 125Â°F. 2  At this stage, the muscle fibers have relaxed a bit, stretching open a little wider.


7 Myths About Cooking Steak That Need to Go Away
In the past, I've said that it's better to season your meat either immediately before you cook it, or at least 45 minutes ahead of time, so that the briny liquid drawn out by the salt has time to get reabsorbed and your steak won't dry out.


-
Just a 10 minute rest resulted in a 60% decrease in lost liquid, and a 40 minute rest resulted in a 90% decrease of lost liquid and even after 40 minutes, the internal meat temperature was still hot enough to serve. A 2-4 Hour Rest Makes Briskets & Pork Butts Better.

Rip steaks from fire with bare hands, allow steaks to rest in a warm place undisturbed for 10 minutes. Bite down, and allow succulent juices to dribble down throat. This week at The Food Lab, we're going to explore the importance of resting meat. Asides from over/under-cooking/seasoning, not resting meat properly is probably the cooking blunder that we are all most guilty of.


-
Cover Loosely With Foil...And When Not To. During the resting period, cover meat loosely with aluminum foil to prevent the surface from cooling off too fast. Make sure the meat is on a cutting board with a gravy groove or a half sheet pan to catch any juices.


Lambrusco: Itâs Not Riunite on Ice, But It Is Nice
And adventurous drinkers who tried the modern Lambrusco found delicious artisanal wine, not the cola-flavored grape juice of yore. Lambrusco became a bit of a joke in the 1980s, with an onslaught of poorly-made, mass-produced sweet wines, and a corny, ubiquitous advertising campaign by Riunite. But in fact, until about the 1970s, Lambrusco was held in high esteem and treated like Champagne in Italy, enjoyed on special occasions and sipped by celebrities such as Maria Callas.


Lambrusco Wants You Back
But a few are still made in the traditional method, as with Champagne: the wine is bottled with yeast and sugar to induce a second fermentation, producing the bubbles. One such wine was one of our favorites, the 2010 Lambrusco Salamino di Santa Croce from Luciano Saetti.


Lambrusco: The Effervescent Wine of Italy's Emilia-Romagna Region
Yet, there is another side of this wine worth exploring. Lambrusco is made in Emilia-Romagna, which is in the central part of Italy lying south of the Veneto and north of Tuscany. Emilia-Romagna is not one of Italyâs premier wine regions. It may, however, be the premier food region. This is the home of Parmesan-Reggiano cheese, Balsamic vinegar and Prosciutto ham.


Riunite
Riunite is a brand of Italian wine imported and sold in a variety of flavors in the United States by Banfi Vintners of Old Brookville, New York, also known as VB Imports (and formerly as Villa Banfi).


Lambrusco Wants You Back
Please try again later. You are already subscribed to this email. Lambrusco is both the name of the grape and the name of the official zones in which it is made. Myriad strains of the Lambrusco grape can be used, but the major selections are grasparossa, salamino and sorbara.


Embrace the Fizz: 6 Lambruscos Worth Drinking Right Now
All of which is to say that when it comes to the spectrum of sparkling wine, well-made Lambrusco definitely deserves a place on the sparkling shelf alongside Champagne's blue ribbon bubbs as much as the pet-nat cool kids. Below are six diverse favorites that helped convert this former non-believer.


Embrace the Fizz: 6 Lambruscos Worth Drinking Right Now
In addition to the range of grapes associated with Lambrusco is the range of styles. Reds, and to a much lesser degree rosÃ©s, dominate, and can be made either secco (dry), amabile (off-dry), or dolce (sweet).


Riunite
The cooperative found success in the American export market in 1967 with an amabile-style Lambrusco wine suited to American tastes of the time. The year 1973 found the Riunite brand the top seller in the U.S. among wine imports, due in no small part to catchy advertising that made the wine a household name. These ever increasing sales numbers came to a peak in 1985 of 11.5 million cases, a record which still stands as of 2012.


Embrace the Fizz: 6 Lambruscos Worth Drinking Right Now
Like its compatriots Riesling and White Cougar Juice Zin, much modern Lambrusco has nothing to do with its '70s reputation of cheap, candy-sweet fizz. Lambrusco now is working hard to shed the decades-old scars of consumer contempt, and we owe it a clean slate to win the skeptics over.


Lambrusco: Itâs Not Riunite on Ice, But It Is Nice
Lambrusco was traditionally made by the farmers of Emilia-Romagna, who made small amounts of wine for home use. The grapes used to make Lambrusco ripen late, so when the wine was pressed it was already pretty late in the year, and the cold weather slowed downâand eventually stoppedâthe fermentation.

Root System of Green Giant Arborvitaes
The Green Giant arborvitae is suitable for planting as a single specimen, as a hedge or to hide or screen an unsightly view. Its shallow roots won't damage foundations or septic systems. However, it reaches 60 feet high, so plant it away from buildings where it has plenty of room to grow.


How far will pine tree roots spread?
All tree roots will grow towards water. How far they go and how deep depends on the type of soil. Where I live white pine trees can get 100 feet tall with roots only going twenty feet out. The best way is to investigate with some slit trenches in areas where you are concerned roots could be. share | improve this answer.


How to get to the root of the problem
1 All trees, no matter how tall, have shallow roots. They go out, not down. Even a big tree's roots rarely go further down than 6.5ft (2m) and most are in the first 23.5in (60cm). 2 They rarely find their way down the water table but rely on rain water. 3 Roots anchor the tree and draw in moisture.


Root System of Green Giant Arborvitaes
Root System. The root systems of arborvitae are generally shallow depending on the variety and may spread to the dripline or edges of the branches, according to North Dakota State University. Green Giant Arborvitae are not known for having invasive or aggressive roots.


How to get to the root of the problem
Some first aid. 1 Leaves use moisture, so if the tree is drying out the soil too much, reduce leaf cover by pruning. Problem: pruning may make it grow more vigorously. 2 Prune roots. Problem: difficult to do. 3 Put down a root barrier. Problem: difficult, and sometimes roots get around them.


The Root Zone for Live Oak Trees
The live oakâs tap root dominates its growth for several years; in time, lateral roots in the top three feet of soil outgrow the tap root and become a major concern for maintaining a healthy tree. You can grow live oaks in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 8 through 11.


The Root Zone for Live Oak Trees
You can pave as close as 10 feet from the trunk if you use porous material such as bark, gravel, cobbles or bricks with sand joints. You should never cover the ground within 6 feet of the trunk with anything. You can kill a live oak tree attempting to dig a utility trench through its roots.


The Root Zone for Live Oak Trees
Covering a live oakâs root zone with asphalt or concrete will block oxygen and water that its roots need. Do not lay solid pavement closer than 15 feet to the trunk.


Root System of Green Giant Arborvitaes

How far will pine tree roots spread?
1 Tree roots can extend as far as two or three times the width of the drip line, or the farthest point from the tree where foliage grows. 2  Pine trees are not known for having invasive root systems but if the soil is dry roots will go where the water is. 3  Most roots grow within the top foot (30 cm) of the surface.

In 1542, Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo was sent by Mexico's viceroy to explore the coast north of western Mexico. On September 28 Cabrillo landed in a bay he named San Miguel, now the city of San Diego, and became the first European to sail along the coastline of present-day California. Cabrillo sailed as far north as the mouth of the Russian River passing by the coast of Marin County and Point Reyes.

San Diego History
Horton was not the first to envision a city where downtown San Diego lies today. Before the National Boundary Survey between the United States and Mexico was completed in 1849, surveyor Andrew Gray had camped at the spot where Alonzo Horton would step ashore 18 years later.


San Diego History
A land rush ultimately settled Southern California. IT WAS LAND, and the dream of building a new city, that brought Alonzo Horton, a wealthy trader and landowner, to San Diego in 1867. Horton, who had been living in San Francisco, built his first city, Hortonville, in Wisconsin before moving west.

Amazonite Feldspar Information
This pattern is very striking when present in the green variety amazonite. Amazonite commonly occurs in association with albite feldspar, biotite mica, and smoky quartz. In the field amazonite is most easily recognized by its color, cleavage, and occurance.

I've seen good stuff from Russia, Africa, and Amelia, Virginia. If you orient the rough so that the cleavage plane is on top of the cabochon it has a cool silvery-white sheen on it reminiscent of moonstone (another type of feldspar).


Amazonite Feldspar Information
AMAZONITE FELDSPAR METAPHYSICAL PROPERTIES. Amazonite is said to calm one's emotions & soothe nerves, and to enhance creativity and the ability to express oneself. The deeper the color of the amazonite, the more intense the effect is said to be.


Amazonite Feldspar Information
Although it does occur in Brazil, amazonite has not been found in the vicinity of this great river. The name microcline comes from two Greek words meaning little and inclined, referring to the cleavage angle's slight inclination from ninety degrees. Feldspar is derived from the German word feld which means field.


-
The reasons are that the materials come out of the pockets usually covered in red mud, which is really a type of clay, an alteration product of the feldspars. It serves a useful purpose of protecting the crystals from some damage due to weathering, earth movements, and extraction.


-
No, it's not the answer to a Jeopardy question. Amazonite is a type of microcline feldspar colored blue to green by small amounts of interstructural lead, and possibly affected by natural radiation over a long geological period. Previously, it was reported here to be the official state mineral of Colorado.

Crystals can go from pale blue to sky blue to dark blue to very dark blue-green. In many amazonite localities around the world, the amazonite occurs in anhedral (formless, without crystal faces) masses often with white contrasting perthite inclusions which makes great cutting rough.

How To Pull A Loose Tooth (The Easy Way)
Tie A String To The Tooth. This is one of the oldest teeth pulling methods out there, but it still works to this day. Tie a string to the base of the tooth and then tie the other end of it to a door knob. Simply shut the door, and the tooth should come out.


Pulling a Tooth (Tooth Extraction)
Although permanent teeth were meant to last a lifetime, there are a number of reasons why tooth extraction may be needed. A very common reason involves a tooth that is too badly damaged, from trauma or decay, to be repaired. A crowded mouth. Sometimes dentists pull teeth to prepare the mouth for orthodontia. The goal of orthodontia is to properly align the teeth, which may not be possible if your teeth are too big for your mouth.


-
1 A dentist may be forced to remove the tooth if this is the case.  Tooth decay or infection. If infection of the tooth extends all the way down to the pulp, a dentist may need to administer antibiotics or even try a root canal. If a root canal does not fix the problem, a dentist may need to extract the tooth.


-
1 Contact a dentist to see if that tooth needs to be pulled. If it does not, do not try to forcefully remove it. 2  You can push it, but don't push it forcefully!  If you try to pull it and it hurts stop and try later this could mean your tooth is not ready to be pulled out yet.


How to Pull Out a Tooth
Children run a higher risk of accidentally pulling a tooth out before it's ready when they use their fingers to pull out the tooth. Wiggling the tooth with their tongues lowers the risk because the tongue can't grip onto the tooth in the same way that two fingers can.


How To Pull A Loose Tooth (The Easy Way)
Pull The Tooth Out By Hand. If your childâs tooth is already very loose, use a wash cloth to pull it out by hand. To get the most out of your pull, try pinching the tooth at the base to get a firm grip. This will also help you collect any blood that may form so your child does not have to taste it.


-
If the tooth is impacted, the dentist will cut away gum and bone tissue that cover the tooth and then, using forceps, grasp the tooth and gently rock it back and forth to loosen it from the jaw bone and ligaments that hold it in place. Sometimes, a hard-to-pull tooth must be removed in pieces.


How To Pull A Loose Tooth (The Easy Way)
How To Pull A Loose Tooth (The Easy Way) Children start losing their baby teeth around age 6, and their adult teeth do not fully come in until puberty. That leaves parents with about six years of teeth pulling to go through, and every child is a little different in how he or she reacts to pulling teeth.


-
Pulling teeth, called tooth extraction by dental professionals, is not something that can be done without dental training. In most cases, it's advisable to leave the tooth alone until it falls out itself, or schedule an appointment with a dentist.


Where would light refract the most oil or water? and why.. ?
Answers. Best Answer: Oil, but the difference is not huge: (Oil: refractive index is about 1.5. Water has a refractive index of about 1.3). But the reason is not easy to explain. Oil slows light down more than water, but that is not quite an explanation.A table of various refractive indices can be found here: http://www.robinwood.com/Catalog/Technic...Very roughly speaking, one could say that there is more interaction between the molecules in oil and the light, than with water and light.ut the reason is not easy to explain. Oil slows light down more than water, but that is not quite an explanation. A table of various refractive indices can be found here: http://www.robinwood.com/Catalog/Technic...


Questions
As light is transmitted through more optically dense substances, it slows down i. Optical density is not the same as mass density (Ex. oil is less dense by mass than water-remember that oil floats on water-, but it is more optically dense, so light slows down more in oil than in water)* ii.In air, light travels only slightly less than c iii.In water, light travels at 75% c iv.s light is transmitted through more optically dense substances, it slows down i. Optical density is not the same as mass density (Ex. oil is less dense by mass than water-remember that oil floats on water-, but it is more optically dense, so light slows down more in oil than in water)* ii.

At this time, the concept of index of refraction should be discussed on relative terms. When a substance bends light more than another, it is said to have a higher index of refraction. Oil has a higher index of refraction than water or air.Assessment: Students' responses to key concepts and their responses to additional examples.t this time, the concept of index of refraction should be discussed on relative terms. When a substance bends light more than another, it is said to have a higher index of refraction. Oil has a higher index of refraction than water or air.


-
Refraction of Light as it passes from less dense to more dense mediums. When light passes from a less dense to a more dense substance, (for example passing from air into water), the light is refracted (or bent) towards the normal. As light initially enters the water, it is refracted as in figure (b) and then reflected off the mirror (at the bottom of the glass). 2  Upon exiting the water, the light is bent away from the normal as it passes from water (more dense) and into air (less dense).


Light Reflection and Refraction
1 Light traveling from a less dense to a more dense medium refract towards the normal. 2  This behavior is exhibited by light moving from air into water. 3  The greater the difference in density between the two media, the greater the refraction.4  The greater the incident angle, the greater the refraction.efracted light rays behave in the following ways: 1  Light traveling from a more dense to a less dense medium refract away from the normal. 2  This behavior is exhibited by light moving from water to air. 3  Light traveling from a less dense to a more dense medium refract towards the normal.


Refraction of Light by Water
Refraction of Light by Water. Light entering or exting a water surface is bent by refraction. The index of refracton for water is 4/3, implying that light travels 3/4 as fast in water as it does in vacuum.Refraction at the water surface gives the broken pencil effect shown above.he index of refracton for water is 4/3, implying that light travels 3/4 as fast in water as it does in vacuum. Refraction at the water surface gives the broken pencil effect shown above.


-
The extent to which it bends is called the index of refraction. The higher the index of refraction, the more the light bends. Water has a higher index of refraction than air, as evidenced by the pencil in the glass of water. Materials have designated indexes of refractions based on measured values and calculations.t this time, the concept of index of refraction should be discussed on relative terms. When a substance bends light more than another, it is said to have a higher index of refraction. Oil has a higher index of refraction than water or air.


Gemstone and Jewelry Glossary

Blood Sugar Levels Chart
Normal glucose levels are important to good health and the next blood sugar chart shows the fasting level for a normal person and then the raising and falling of blood sugar after a meal. Fasting is in a state of non-eating, where the stomach is empty and as much glucose as possible has been moved from the blood stream.


Blood Sugar Levels Chart
As you can see the blood sugar amount increases after a meal when the food is digested and glucose is absorbed into the blood. The blood sugar level falls as insulin does its work of moving the glucose from the blood in to tissues needing it for food. This pattern is a normal occurrence as glucose is needed in the body for proper brain functioning as well as for fuel for muscles and other cells.
