Protecting Cacti from the Cold Unless they’re lucky enough to live in the hottest and driest regions, all cactus growers fear extreme cold and freezing weather! Here’s some advice on protecting cacti from the cold. This is vital when cultivating all such plants, as short or sustained periods of frost are likely to seriously harm – or even kill – our precious cacti. With this in mind, here’s a collection of materials and structures which we find helpful for reducing the risks of cold damage to our precious cactus collection over the winter months. Illustrating quite how serious such damage can be, in 1987, a prolonged cold snap in Barcelona is estimated to have reduced the genetic ...

“There is no map for the waters beneath the cypress, for they run deeper than the earth itself. What moves there is not life as we know it, but something vaster, older, unbound by our hours and seasons. The swamp is only its skin.” -Dee Dee Star Burns My name is Sophia Pembroke. I was fifteen in the summer of 1926, old enough to understand the tension in my parents’ voices when they thought we were asleep, but still young enough to believe the world’s darker corners could be explained by science or scripture. I was quite a silent girl, always in my mind. I would keep a journal, scribbling everything down as if writing might hold the world steady. I had never thought of my family as...

I placed a pickup (Location: Delhi ) for my order, which I wanted to send to my customer in , Punjab. On 22 September 2025, I initiated a pickup request, and the next day, the delivery boy picked it up from my house (I have CCTV footage as proof). The expected delivery date to the destination was 24 September, but it was not delivered. Then the delivery date was extended to 25 September, yet it wasn’t delivered on that day either. The same thing happened on the 26th, 27th, 28th, and so on but till date, it has still not been delivered. Seeing this situation, I filed a complaint through their app, but no action was taken. The next day, I filed another complaint again, no action. Then I req...

# Day 8 — Friday, 3 July 1885 (small offerings, sharper divisions, and sleep that does not heal) The morning after the mule’s disappearance, the bunkhouse seemed smaller. Fewer chairs were around the table; people ate faster. The men looked tenser, as if breakfast were a thing to get through between threats. Harris kept a coin clutched in his fist still. Miguel had not slept well and his face looked drawn. He placed a coin at the flank of the seam before his shift, fingers trembling. “For my abuela,” he said to no one. Elias watched it go with the displeasure of a man who mistrusts offerings but understands their urgency. Samuel and Reuben took shifts at the face, their youthful b...

**July 23, 1777. Fort Ticonderoga. New York - Vermont Border.** The fort squats upon the narrows like a red beast, its gun-ports for teeth command Lake Champlain by force.  Even so, wet moss climbs the ramparts as if set to reclaim the timbers back, plank by plank. Mosquitoes move about Ticonderoga in brigades and find a man’s neck however much he hides it.  I must admit, it is an awful place to be stationed. I set down my name here: Owen Bell, private of His Majesty’s 62nd. Since we claimed this post, my fingers have grown calloused from musket drills more than from penmanship. So excuse my writing. With me is Wilkes, my friend, square in frame and fond of sugar where he can sna...

**Independence, Missouri. April 14th.** **Preparing for the Trail.** Independence stands like a knot of raw timber at the edge of the prairie.  The town reaches the nose before the eye: beef fat, lamp oil, dung, wet wood, bacon smoke. After that, the racket. Wheels grind, teamsters bawl, a bell clangs from a shop, and behind it a preacher shouting about Babylon, hawking sin like it might be weighed and sold. My house struck company with the Albrights and the Dufresnes, reckoning that three houses fare better than one. Yet it is manners more than fondness that holds us. Their smiles purchase calmer nights, not friendship. I expect they keep the same thought about me. Still, I set thei...

**From the Journal of Mr. Edmund Hale, late of Scotland Yard** *March, 1847. Port of Queenstown.* The morning rose pale and clean upon the harbor, a thin sun drawn through salt mist as if seen through gauze. Off the pier the Providence waited, her hull dark with a crooked appetite.  The crew were not yet ready to take us. We waited with our bundles and poor boxes, a multitude pressed in the damp like sheep against a gate. I counted heads by habit and ceased counting at two hundred.  Two lads lingered beside me, trading words in the quick clipped rhythm of Dublin. They are mine in a fashion, though it is I who depend on them. Brothers they are, Aidan and Seamus Quinn, both light in the ...

At its core, bespoke architecture replaces one-size-fits-all templates with careful listening, high-craft details, intelligent spatial sequencing, and materials that age well. The result is a built environment that supports daily rhythms, amplifies wellbeing, and adapts as life changes. This article explores how bespoke architecture works, the pra...

The U.S. government has permanently terminated the **de minimis duty-free policy**, which no longer allows international parcels valued under $800 to be exempt from customs duties. This policy ending duty-free packages will officially take effect across the United States on **August 29, 2025, at 12:01 AM Eastern Daylight Time (EDT)**. The related document is the **Executive Order 14324**, issued by the White House. Let us look at the event chart for the moment this executive order comes into effect to understand what is really happening. **Step 1: Identifying the key players in the chart** * The executive order can be associated with the **10th house** — its ruler **Saturn**. * **Nation...

 I.   “Father, are you mad? Beatrice of Callaway is barely ten years of age!” Bernard of Derkland frowned and finished off his tankard of ale, wishing his father would leave off grousing at him. If they’d only have one conversation where the man did not bring up suitable wives…!   “Aye, but if one judges by her mother, in five years she’ll be a good breeder—and a generous dowry she brings. ” Lord Harold turned to look out over the rows of diners eating in the great hall of Wyckford Heath. They were guests at the week-long celebration of the wedding of the Lord of Wyckford’s youngest daughter. “What of Theresa, daughter of Lord Enderman?”   Bernard gap...

Part Two The Weight & The Wall The Gym: Shared Struggle, Earned Respect The warehouse door looked like it should squeal but it didn’t. It swung open on quiet hinges, and cool air rolled out carrying eucalyptus and old iron. Plates were racked neat to the wall; bars gleamed like river steel. The floor was chalk-ghosted where hands had learned their limits and then taught them new ones. Bastien was already there, hoodie unzipped, forearms roped and warm. He nodded instead of waving. It felt like being let into a chapel. “Ben là, t’es venu,” he said. You came. Kai smiled. “I said I would.” “People say a lot of things,” Bastien replied, but there was...

i have had issues with this courier several times but i’ve never mentioned it because it’s nothing serious just all little things? Starting off, he knocks the door, i get up as soon as he knocks and heads to the door and not even 2 seconds after he’s knocked he’s already trying to knock the neighbours door to get them to take it. GIVE ME CHANCE TO GET TO THE DOOR AND OPEN IT. I understand they have many packages but come on wait a minute??? my house is small i get to the door within 4 seconds max if im down stairs and 10 if im upstairs. Secondly, why does he just leave the parcel outside the door step. This one is more serious i guess but i live on a street in a village where whe...
