A sold out Kool Haus was witness last night to exactly why I consider Nick Cave the greatest showman on Earth.This was the third time I've seen Cave live and it's remarkable that someone can consistently bring an otherworldly level of passion and bravado to performances. When you combine that with brilliantly written songs, you get something very special.In his full sinister preacher mode, Cave

Mother Nature has her own way of germinating seed. In the field, she provides warmth from the sun, moisture from the clouds(or your garden hose), and nutrients in the soil.
Any authentic seed house can be looked upon for fine seeds; but however, there is a big risk in seeds. A seed may to all [...]

The trickiest part of harvesting sunflower seeds is timing. If you wait too long, the birds will let you know when you wake up to the head of the flower on the ground with seeds devoured. There are a couple of ways to get around this when the backs of your sunflowers begin to get yellow cover them with a paper bag or cheesecloth to inhibit the birds from stealing them.

As you start a garden, you must first till the soil, fertilize it, and then plant your flowers, trees, bushes, vegetable plants, etc. There are different ways you can do this, either by planting seedlings, transplanting entire plants, or sowing seeds. If you want to save some money, you can sow seeds. This way, all you have to buy is seeds which will probably only cost you a couple dollars for a l
A New Band A Day is, apparently, indulging in Americanophilia at the moment. Over half of last week's super-duper new bands were from the USA (scroll down for more, pop-pickers!), and guess what - today there's another one cluttering up your ears with sweet sounds. An astute reader can draw a few conclusions from this.Firstly, that A.N.B.A.D. band choices are entirely arbitrary and dependant on th

Although they are small in size, pale sesame seeds can provide a powerful punch of nutrition and flavor into any dish once they become golden brown. I'm constantly on the look-out for what I call 'flavor boosts', items used in minimal amounts but which give maximum flavor.

Suppose you are saving seed of aster plants. What blossoms shall you decide upon? Now it is not the

Wimbledon: Seeds Of Discontent

Group:The choice between seeds and plants is not too tough once you understand a few basic facts, such as how hard or easy, and how expensive or inexpensive it is to do one or the other. Also, how long it takes to grow to seedling size and the value of the plant at maturity have a bearing. I'll give you some examples to illustrate:As a general rule the smaller the seed, the harder it is to grow in

If you do have to seed in the spring, you should do so as soon as the ground thaws. The roots need time to gain strength before the weather gets too hot. In the summer, grass has do deal with dry conditions, hot weather, and competition with weeds. It is tough for it to try to begin growing in these conditions. If you don’t seed in the fall, and miss the early spring window, you should make a temporary lawn out of rye grass until you can make your permanent lawn in the fall.

There comes a time in life when one decides to surrender to what is, to acknowledge that one has hit a wall. I have arrived at just such an impasse, and while it's not an easy thing to do, I finally have to admit that I feel powerless over my pain.Having worked with patients with chronic illness----including chronic pain---for years, I never saw myself as someone with chronic illness. People with intractable pain and multiple diagnoses were always separate from me, living in a world which I did not inhabit.Now, having quit my job due to the ravages of stress and chronic illness, I admit that I am---at least for the moment---struggling with chronic illness, and that its effect on my life is global and overwhelming.Up until now, I have consistently said that pain would not limit what I do, t

As the world around me awakens from the deep frozen slumber of winter gray, I watch as the world around me is nudged back to life with each delicate brush stroke painted by Mother Nature upon this canvas of life. I see that I too, have also begun to awaken in a spectacular display of self as the guiding force of the universe continues to gently caress the seeds of hope I planted, as they continually blossom into the life I live today. It was this time last year that the beliefs I held about life in all it’s glory began to unravel within me, the threads of my sanity twisting and turning in the constant winds of change. In the midst of this inner turmoil, I began to question myself, my life and everything I held to be true. The life I worked so hard to build crumbled and fell apart and I w

"It's 8pm and I fancy something to nibble on.... Mmmmmm, what shall I have?"How many times do you have that munchie feeling during the evening? For me, it is almost every evening...lol! Tonight being no exception. One of my favourite snacks is Roasted Pumpkin Seeds.The recipe for this is quite simple, so I will not send you to sleep with countless photographs. All you need is some Olive Oil, salt and a bag of Pumpkin Seeds. I like a bit of a kick to pumpkin seeds, so I have substituted Olive Oil with Chilli Oil and I also use some chilli flakes. Both of these items are optional.The first step it to cover a baking tray with foil. Then spread the pumpkin seeds over the foil base. Lightly drizzle some olive oil (chilli oil) over the seeds, then season with salt (and chilli flakes if desired).
The best time to sow your flower seeds is in the Fall or the Spring. In warm climates like Southern California, Florida, and South Texas flower seeds can be sown anytime after August. Just make sure the flowers will not be blooming in the hot summer season. In colder climates you can also sow your annual seeds in the late fall but make sure it is after the temperatures are below 45 degrees so the flower seeds don't start to germinate until next spring. If you are sowing perennials they should be started in the spring or fall when the temperatures are between 55 and 70. To prepare the soil for sowing your wildflower seeds you should start by taking out whatever weeds and unwanted vegetation you have in the area. It is easier before you plant. Use roundup or pick the weeds by hand. Get all

I always enjoy any seeds I required to start outdoors since they normally thrive with little effort from myself other than the occasional watering and given I live in the rainy Seattle area that does start until mid-June. Even if you have started many of your seeds indoors to extend your growing season some seeds should always start outdoors since they are sensitive to transplant shock. If you have been to a garden center or nursery lately you can get an idea by what types of plants can be transplanted easily. If you are now looking at your seed packets wondering if you should plant these indoors or outdoors here are my suggestions:
Plants that can be started indoors:
Broccoli, Cabbage, Cauliflower, Celery, Cucumbers, Cukes, Eggplant, Herbs, Kale, Leeks, Lettuce, Muskmelons, Onions (se
