  • how to cultivate creola garlic?

    Does anybody know how to cultivate this kind type of Mexican garlic that it is kind challenge for me to get known this special garlic's "personality" compared with the other different types of garlic. Condition: I am located in frost but no snow zone. i planted the Creola garlic just right 8 weeks before the frost as the other different types of garlic with raising bed in the plot of less sunlight in the spring time. 5 monthes after, they all shot the new side leaves between each junction of stems. Then those new side shootings become another different indivisual seedlings from tiny slim cloves. Now here is my question: Is creola is kind late crop that needs to be planted later than the ordinary types? or their maturity period is shorter than the others? or they needs more sunlight than the others? if you knew the answer and had such kind of experiences of planting this gourmet garlic, would you mind telling me how, when you plant them in what kind of climate condition. Much obliged toward your inputting time on my personal trivial question, but means a lot to my personal knowledge of this special garlic.

  • To: Freshmen of Melbourne Univ. of Medical college?

    Since Melbourne Univ. Medical college now has become the top notch of school in Australia, therefore the overall of criteria of selecting the promising student of freshmen tends to assimulate as the criteria of the long ivy ones in the US.Forr those qualified students with high score of VCE within the range of pre-requested subjects of test not only are expected to reach such high percentage of score like pure gold, but also got to have another level of interviewing sections of oral test just for merely half-baked graduates from high school. Frankly speaking, this is far too much stricter than anyone of medical schools in the US that I ever heard.

    So this is my question toward to those new entranced freshmen of pre-med student of Melbourne Univ.from last year when college has changed its old original policy of criteria of selecting medical students " How do you slash the other ones who got higher score but flush out by interviewing?" Because you got more agile of personality and communicating ability or got "dazzling background of past experiences" like the kiddo of "21".

  • Do you know what Jiso means in Japanese culture?

    It was puzzle for me and still lingering in my mind for a long while that there were tons of little stone made Jiso statues along the track where I went hiking down in a very rural lonely villiage in the southern Osaka. As I know that most Japanese don't have any religion at all, but back in the ancient time they did have one and most were Buddism. And I was told that in the past by my Japanese teacher that there were not much food at that time and a lot of poor family they usually got rid of the youngest baby and buried them alive in order to save the food for the remaining family members to survive. My mainpoint question was that under those little stone Jizo statues were buried dead baby at that time? If not, what does that mean? If anyone who penetrates into Japanese culture and do know what it meant, plz tell me. Ans Thanx so much for your helping.

  • Do you still burn wood to cook?

    Man!! This is the most shocking scene I have seen in Australia that I have never seen in the US. I visited a couple friends' house from the other friend in Australia... They still chop wood to cook and boill the water from burner or stove for bathing water. What a country I ever seen and now we live in 21 century rather my grandma time. Can't believe people still use such old facility to cook in their life.

    How can we get save the earth? People living in modern life with a lot of heat remission from electric facilities, but the other living underdeveloping countries still doing the same old things chopping trees and woods. How our earth can totally get rid of green house effects? None can't help them.

    Have you seen any similar scene in a " developed" county while travelling?

  • How do you learn playing paino?

    Well, these are my question about how people learn to play paino, reading notes and left-right hand coordinate with each other and play differently when they were young? I disliked to study reading notes and never learned how to play. I know the problem still throws back to me again when I got kids. I only simplely play from do to so with different 5 finger, but how about how to play from so-la-ti-do with which fingers on which key? Do your paino teacher also teach you to learn how to read the note? How do you not let your hand follow by the right hand when playing different split note? That is very interesting for me. Have you ever heard of Suzuki Paino lesson? How do you think of it if you learn from the traditional way of playing paino?

  • Hello, hello!! Stay home or working mum about the school for preschool age.?

    Geez!! The quality of the kindergarten teachers and the ways they teach are quite lousy in Australia compared the one I got from east asia country, honestly speaking. Even the public elementary school also freak me out a lot when I learned quite a lot of kids are still illiterated even they are about to go to the junior high school. That is pretty shocking news I ever read that there are not many illiterates in Japan and my country, not mention about young generation couldn't read. So my question is: Do you check your kids' homework regularly? What do you think the topics of the assignments are good or lousy? How do you choose a good elementary school to illuminate your preschool kids? Each child has more or less different developement problem in many ways. Do you put your kid one more year in kindergarten because some teacher said he or she is kind slower in some way? For me, I wouldn't take the teacher's words too seriously. Cuz each kid have spur at different age

After the summer was over they came back again and live in the same place above the ceiling of gargage AGAIN. I ever used peticides to poision them before, but there was no vivids results I could see at all. Now, they are back again and I am thinking another natural way to capture them alive or dead. But the question I don't know how. I got no access to hire any cat to lock it in garage. I wouldn't want use toxic food to them which is a bit cruel. Does any mice caputure guru tip me any way out to kick them out of my house in any resort. It is kind brain draining to think how to kill them. I got to say sorry to those green peace or animal right supporters, this time I got to disappoint you. Cuz they went too far to destroy my stuffs too much. You got to know that.

  • "Eeyore, Be Happy!!" Questions for those who always suffer from Depression?

    When I read this famous children book by this title, I felt so sick to continue telling the whole book to my kids cuz Dunkey, Eeyore, obviously in depression all the time without any brightening words in the book. In additions, there is no way out to cheer him up no matter what other characters in the story trying so hard to teach him any tips . My question is that no matter what people around you to cheer u up, it is useless to cut those entangling haunting feelings out of your mind? Or you are just like the Eeyore, don't know how to be initiative to enjoy life by yourself? It seems a puzzle for me to figure out why a lot people suffering in depression for so long. It is just like a clock stop working and never feel like to move on. Also, is there any slight chance for someone saying encouraging words to help you out of that shadow? Hope you all get well and keep moving on for your life.
