Field garlic is all over the place. We often step on and over it as field garlic covers fields and open areas. As it sprouts in the fall, growing up to two feet tall, and is ready to be harvested in the winter and spring. It has a strong onion smell and looks like chives with its long, slender, tubular green leaves.
Field garlic is a member of the lily family. It is one of those plants that once identified, is easily recognized all over the place. It grows in our yards, and in almost every single field or opening that we walk through. It does very well under deciduous trees that do not sprout leaves until the late spring.
Leaves can grow up to two feet tall.
The underground bulbs look like miniature onions growing together in clusters.
Field garlic blooms in the late spring with pink and white flowers.
Wild onion (Allium canadense) has flat leaves and only grows 12-14 inches. Wild onions also have a strong onion odor and are edible.
Fly poison (Amianthium muscaetoxicum) is the most dangerous look alike which has a smooth stem top with six white to green petal flower. Also, watch out for death camas (Zigadenus species). These do not smell like garlic or onion. If it smells like garlic or onion then it is not poisonous.
Field garlic grows abundantly in fields, open woods, and turned soil. Sprouting in fall and ready for harvest in winter and spring. The whole plant can be harvested and eaten. Dig up the bulbs with roots attached or just snip off the green tops.
Field garlic is ephemeral, dying back to the ground when temperatures start warming up for summer. It is common and a great self-seeder, but it is a good idea to not harvest all the field garlic from any one spot. If the tops are clipped off, it will continue to grow and can be harvested several times throughout the winter and spring.
With a taste of pungent onions with a touch of garlic, field garlic is great in recipes that call for onion, garlic, or chives. Utilize the green tops like chives and use the bulbs with roots attached in place of onions.
Chop the leaves to add into an omelet topped with bacon. Or use the entire plant to add flavor to broths, soups, and roast.
Avoid foraging in urban areas as field garlic will absorb pollutants in the soil. Heavy metals, toxins, and chemicals are more common in the soil of urban areas and near roads.

An ethnic Rohingya man carries a plastic bag containing his belongings at a temporary shelter in Lapang, Aceh province, Indonesia, Thursday, May 14, 2015.
More than 1,000 people fleeing persecution in Myanmar and poverty in Bangladesh came ashore Friday around Southeast Asia, describing murder, extortion and near-starvation after surviving a harrowing journey at sea.
The waves of weak, hungry and dehydrated migrants who arrived Friday were the latest to slip into countries that have made it clear they're not welcome. But thousands more are still believed stranded at sea in what has become a humanitarian crisis no one in the region is rushing to solve.
A migrant distributes sweets to others after their arrival at Kuala Langsa Port in Langsa, Aceh province, Indonesia, Friday, May 15, 2015.
Most of the migrants were crammed onto three boats that Indonesian fishermen towed ashore, while a group of 106 people were found on a Thai island known for its world-class scuba diving and brought to the mainland.
"If I had known that the boat journey would be so horrendous, I would rather have just died in Myanmar," said Manu Abudul Salam, 19, a Rohingya from Myanmar's Rakhine state where three years of attacks against the long-persecuted Muslim minority have sparked the region's largest exodus of boat people since the Vietnam War.
Manu was aboard the largest boat to come ashore Friday, a wooden vessel crammed with nearly 800 people that was towed to the Indonesian village of Langsa in eastern Aceh province.
The vessel was at sea when authorities around the region began cracking down on human trafficking two weeks ago. Aid groups and rights workers have warned that the crackdown prompted some captains and smugglers to abandon their ships and leave migrants to fend for themselves — a claim that was corroborated by survivors who came ashore Friday.
Newly arrived migrants receive medical treatment under a makeshift tent at Kuala Langsa Port in Langsa, Aceh province, Indonesia, Friday, May 15, 2015.
Manu said she watched the captain on her ship fleeing on a speed boat several days ago after apparently receiving a call on his cell phone. Before he left, he destroyed the boat's engine, she said, and the boat began to drift.
With food and water running out, tempers flared and fighting broke out, Manu said, sobbing, saying that her 20-year-old brother was among dozens killed in violent clashes between the Bangladeshis and Rohingya on board.
"They thought the captain was from our country, so they attacked us with sticks and knives," she said, sobbing. "My brother is dead." The bodies of the dead were thrown into the sea, she said.
A 19-year-old Bangladeshi survivor, Saidul Islam, also said that dozens died on the ship from starvation and injuries after fighting broke out following the captain's evacuation. His voyage lasted three months, starting when a man turned up at his village and asked if anyone wanted a boat ride to Malaysia, known for better job prospects. But once at sea, the captain demanded hundreds of dollars and made the men call their families to secure payment. There were also beatings aboard the vessel, which was stifling hot and cramped.
"We could not stand up. When we asked for water, the captain hit us with wire," he said.
Southeast Asia for years tried to quietly ignore the plight of Myanmar's 1.3 million Rohingya but is now being confronted with a dilemma that in many ways it helped create. In the last three years, more than 120,000 Rohingya have boarded ships to flee to other countries, according to the U.N. refugee agency.
No countries want them, fearing that accepting a few would result in an unstoppable flow of poor, uneducated migrants. But Southeast Asian governments at the same time respected the wishes of Myanmar at regional gatherings, avoiding discussions of state-sponsored discrimination against the Rohingya.
Myanmar, in its first official comments as the crisis escalated in the past two weeks, indicated it won't take back migrants who claim to be Rohingya, who are denied citizenship in Myanmar and are effectively stateless.
"We cannot say that the migrants are from Myanmar unless we can identify them," said government spokesman Ye Htut. "Most victims of human trafficking claim they are from Myanmar is it is very easy and convenient for them."
Another official, Maj. Zaw Htay, said that Myanmar "will not attend a regional meeting hosted by Thailand if "Rohingya' is mentioned on the invitation." Even the name is taboo in Myanmar, which calls them "Bengalis" and insists they are illegal immigrants from Bangladesh, even though Rohingya have lived in the majority-Buddhist country for generations.
Thailand has convened a meeting of senior officials for May 29, but the Myanmar officials' comments show the difficulty in resolving the crisis.
Most of the migrants are believed to be heading to Malaysia, a Muslim country that has hosted more than 45,000 Rohingya over the years but now says it can't accept any more. Indonesia and Thailand have voiced similar stances.
Earlier this week, about 1,600 migrants were rescued by the Malaysian and Indonesian navies, but both countries then sent other boats away. It wasn't clear whether those who came ashore Friday had been turned away earlier.
The U.N.'s top human rights official said it was "incomprehensible and inhumane" to turn the boats away.
"I am appalled at reports that Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia have been pushing boats full of vulnerable migrants back out to sea," said Zeid Raad al-Hussein, the U.N. high commissioner for human rights. "The focus should be on saving lives, not further endangering them."
The International Organization for Migration called on regional governments to help and said it was releasing $1 million to help migrants on shore and still stranded at sea. Director General William Lacy Swing said the IOM would assist with longer-term problems like transportation and living arrangements, "but in the name of humanity, let these migrants land."
As boats arrived in scattered spots of Indonesia and Thailand on Friday, it was increasingly clear that nobody knows how many boats are adrift or where.
The boat that Manu was on was crammed with about 790 people, including 61 children and 61 women, many weak from lack of food and water, said Lt. Col. Sunarya, who uses only one name. Fishermen spotted the boat on the verge of sinking.
"Some of the people told police they were abandoned at sea for days and Malaysian authorities had already turned their boat away," said Sunarya, a Langsa police chief.
Authorities in Langsa provided basic shelter for the migrants in two large warehouses, and residents came to donate food, drinks and clothing. More than 50 people were treated for dehydration and injuries, according to Syamsul, an official at the Langsa General Hospital.
About 25 kilometers (15 miles) south of Langsa, fishermen rescued a smaller boat carrying 47 Rohingya, also dehydrated and hungry, said police chief Dicky Sandoni, from Aceh's Tamiang district.
In neighboring North Sumatra province, fishermen rescued a third boat with 96 weak and hungry people adrift in a motorless boat, said Capt. Suroso of the Langkat district police. They were provided basic shelter and food, he said.
Separately, the Thai navy found 106 people, mostly men but including 15 women and two children, on a small island off the coast of Phang Nga province, an area known as the Surin Islands and famous for its scuba diving. They were brought to a police immigration facility on the mainland.
"It's not clear how they ended up on the island," said Prayoon Rattanasenee, the Phang Nga provincial governor. The group said they were Rohingya from Myanmar. "We are in the process of identifying if they were victims of human trafficking."

The Honorable Judge Wall, Middletown OH and the Ohio State Legislature: Pass tougher laws against torture, neglect, abuse of companion animals in Ohio.
This petition made change with 39,321 supporters!
Lisa Neary started this petition
The case of Jeremy Shane Temple of Middletown, OH has attracted global attention to the need for tougher animal protection laws. We need to send a strong message to Ohio and beyond that animal abuse is not tolerated.
This case of animal neglect and torture was particularly heinous, and has attracted attention from around the globe. For 4 years, Jeremy Shane Temple kept Joseph, a German Shepherd, chained to a tree in the backyard. He was outside, with no shelter and only intermittent food and water, through sweltering hot summers and cold winters. When he was found, he was skeletal and near death, full of sores and bites, and suffering from heartworm among other illnesses.
We need the court of Middletown, OH to send a clear and strong message that any animal abuse is not tolerated in our society. We ask that Mr. Temple's punishment be commensurate with his crime, and that he be punished to the fullest extent of the law.
And the laws must be toughened. Current OH law is woefully inadequate in its handling of cases involving animal abuse, cruelty and torture. We ask the Ohio state legislature to do the right thing and toughen the statutes to make the punishment fit the crime. Today, Ohio law is lagging behind most states in this regard. Please ensure that we send a strong message that as a society we do not tolerate animal mistreatment of any kind.
Temple's pre-trial hearing is scheduled for October 28*, and we will be there in peaceful demonstration to show our hope that Mr. Temple's crime gets the punishment it deserves, and in support of this new and important legislation.
*UPDATE: Temple's court date has been postponed to November 25. I'm hoping to get 30,000 signatures by that time.

A lot goes into being a homeowner in Wichita, including the maintenance of your heating system. A heating tune-up performed by a licensed heating and air conditioning contractor is part of this maintenance, and annual tune-ups can help you avoid the premature failure of your furnace.
Heating tune-ups are considered essential maintenance tasks by qualified air conditioning and heating experts because they improve the overall operation of your heating system and increase the longevity of your furnace. Your furnace will age gradually and become less efficient, but regular tune-ups will allow your HVAC technician to perform repairs and replacements as needed to ensure proper function. A well-maintained furnace can last up to 18 years. Additionally, routine heating tune-ups will keep your home at a comfortable temperature and your energy costs low.
What Will Your HVAC Technician Do During a Heating Tune-Up?
Replace the Filter – If you haven't changed your furnace filter in the past three months, your HVAC contractor will replace it during a heating tune-up. Fresh, new filters will ensure that your heating system is energy efficient, reducing energy bills and promoting good air circulation. If you're using your furnace constantly, aim to change the filter every month.
Perform a Carbon Monoxide Test – Gas furnace operation involves combustion, and this process creates carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas. Carbon monoxide concentrations can rise to levels that are unsafe, so HVAC technicians will likely suggest that homeowners purchase carbon monoxide detectors and install them near their furnaces.
Check the Gas Pressure – During a tune-up, your heating and air conditioning contractor will make sure that your furnace's gas pressure matches the guidelines in the manufacturer's manual. Gas pressure can change if you don't use your furnace for several months, so it's important that the pressure is checked prior to frequent use.
Lubricate Heating Components – A thorough heating tune-up will involve the lubrication of all of the moving furnace components to ensure proper operation and to reduce friction in your heating system.
If you've been putting off a heating tune-up all year, don't delay it any longer. Reach out to the heating and air conditioning professionals at Ball Heating and Air Conditioning to schedule a heating tune-up for your Wichita home.
If you are looking for heating and air conditioning services in Wichita, give us a call today at 316-733-4670, or fill out our online request form for high-quality Wichita air conditioning services today!

Gray Matter volume 2
ISBN 1-933143-10-X, 324 pages, $22.95 Learn about volume 1
By Chaim Jachter, with Ezra Frazer
GRAY MATTER VOLUME 2 is an exploration of the application of halacha (Jewish law) in contemporary society. It includes over thirty essays on topics of interest. Each chapter explains the subject and its background in clear English and then takes the reader through the varying views among the leading poskim (halachic decisors). Rather than providing simple answers to questions, the book takes readers through the process of how halacha is decided and explores the reasons for different conclusions.
The book is divided into seven sections: Laws of Shabbat, The State of Israel, Family Matters, Beit Din, Pesach, Electricity, and Building and Maintaining Mikva�ot.
In the section on the Laws of Shabbat, the book describes the duty to violate Shabbat in order to save someone�s life and the associated questions that arise. Must one minimize the violations when possible? May an emergency worker, who was obligated to travel to save someone�s life, return after the emergency has ended? Is it preferable to request the services of a non-observant doctor over an observant doctor, because the former would violate Shabbat anyway? These and other questions are explored and the views of the leading poskim are explained. The section ends with a chapter on the squeezing of lemons on Shabbat, a surprisingly controversial topic.
The State of Israel raises halachic questions that are entirely new. In a country run largely by Jews, can one utilize electricity on Shabbat that is generated by electric plants run by non-observant Jews who are violating Shabbat? The changing technology over the past decades complicates this already difficult question. The book surveys the Israeli literature to provide the varying conclusions and how Israelis manage this situation. Other topics discussed are the offering of korbanot today and over which areas of Israel one is obligated to rend one�s garment.
The section on Family Matters addresses topics of great importance in today�s society. To what extent may one reveal the flaws of a potential marriage partner? What solutions exist to infertility caused by halacha? This book comprehensively maps out the issues involved with these questions. The book also discusses how the Beth Din of America handled the agunot (stranded wives) from the World Trade Center tragedy, as well as other subjects.
Beit Din (Jewish religious court) is a controversial topic. The book strongly advocates the use of a beit din and explores how to select a court, issue a summons, and the problem of lawyers in the beit din system. Rabbi Jachter brings his extensive experience as dayan (religious judge) who trained with the Jerusalem Rabbinic Court to elucidate these topics with great insight.
The section on Pesach discusses different appliances common in the modern kitchen and how/whether to kasher them for Pesach. These chapters are essential for understanding how to run a kosher kitchen.
Can one fulfill a mitzvah by hearing it through an electronic medium - microphones, telephones, hearing aids? The section on Electricity addresses this much-debated topic as well as the issue of electric Chanukah menorahs. Recognizing the complexity of the physics involved, this section includes insight from an expert in that aspect of these questions.
In one of the few presentations of this topic in English, the book describes the complex issues involved in building and maintaining a mikvah (ritual bath). Not only are the halachic subjects addressed, but the book also relates important information based on extensive experience. One emerges from reading this section with a much better understanding of exactly what a mikvah is and how a community would go about building one.
�Many people in our times are thirsty to hear the word of God but are incapable of searching through texts on their own. Rabbi Chaim [Jachter] did well in arranging everything like a set table before readers.�
�Rabbi Hershel Schachter
�Rabbi Chaim Jachter has already established, through his first book, his ability to present difficult halachic questions, to cover them from all perspectives, to explain and clarify the views of the great poskim [halachic decisors] � both from previous generations and from today, and to explain them in a clear and understandable format, in English and in an order that makes it easy for the reader to understand the subject in depth.�

Facebook's "Old" Owner?
By Paper Money on 07/13/2010 – 3:54 pm PDTLeave a Comment
Although this is not a macro-econ story per se, the numbers and potential outcome is so fantastic I felt compelled to post.
It's been somewhat wrongly reported that Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg is facing allegations that a contract he entered into back in 2003 granted web developer Paul Ceglia 84% ownership interest in Facebook, the wildly popular social networking website.
In fact, most of the reporting on this story has gotten the contract terms completely mixed.
The actual complaint filed June 30 2010 states that Paul Ceglia paid $1000 to Mark Zuckerberg for a 50% interest in Zuckerberg's business, including "the face book" (the complaint specifically cites thefacebook.com) and further stipulated that Paul (the purchaser) would receive a 1% interest for each day after January 1st 2004 until the website was completed.
The complaint states that the website was complete February 4th 2004 which would have accrued another 34% ownership interest to Paul Ceglia for a grand total of 84% interest.
Finally, the complaint alleges that Zuckerberg eventually transferred the original website (and business) from thefacebook.com to facebook.com and ultimately into Facebook, Inc. which the complaint claims is simply a continuum of Ceglia acquisition from the date of contract until the present time.
Provided that the attached "Work for Hire" contract and cashed check exhibits are authentic, it looks like Facebook may very well have been developed under a simple and typical, albeit meager, "work made for hire" contract agreement between Zuckerberg and Ceglia with Ceglia buyer of the development services and Zuckerberg the seller/developer/contractor.
Apparently, the complaint must have thus far been convincing as a Supreme Court judge of New York granted a restraining order prohibiting Facebook and Zuckerberg from transferring any assets.
Clearly, it will be interesting to watch this case play out but given that Facebook has a current valuation between $5 and $10 billion, Ceglia (and his attorney) stand to gain quite a haul from this suit.

A classic lunch that is great for picnics or family outings, this crusty roll is low calorie and only takes 15 minutes to make. It tastes great if you bake it in the oven so the cheese melts.
Cut the crusty roll in half.
Spread each half of the roll with the green pesto.
Place the cheese and tomato into the roll.
It tastes even better if you wrap it in foil & bake it in the oven for 25 mins.

Q: Upgrading from Django1.3 to 1.8 - Are migrations mandatory? My application has been on production for 3 years and the DB model is stable. It seems to me that adding migrations support is more pain that it is worth.
Is it possible/desirable to upgrade without migrations support?

A: The good old syncdb command is still there. If all you need is to add/drop tables(models), you can continue to use that. The new migration support doesn't make any difference to you if you don't create any migrations (with makemigration and migrate commands).
That said, enabling migration is still recommended. You never know when your schema will change, even for a stable DB model. If you don't like Django's builtin migration solution, try south, which was the de facto standard, and have been proven solid.
