This invaluable guide provides access by means of photos and descriptions to over 1,100 of the approximately 1,500 species of vascular plants found in the Gila Wilderness and vicinity. Russ Kleinman, Associate Botanist, Zimmerman Herbarium at Western New Mexico University, Department of Natural Sciences. This guide is the comprehensive on-line guide: Vascular Plants of the Gila Wilderness by Dr. Consulting the several books and general field guides on hand regarding common wild flowers of the Southwest (guides that had proved so helpful in the past) proved to be essentially futile, and did nothing more than confirm that, yes, these new flowers were, evidently, not so common! Fortunately, however, and as referenced in previous writings on this blog, there is an excellent guide available to help aspiring botanists who are interested in the plants of Southwest New Mexico. And after 17 years of traipsing the trails over these Casita lands, it was more than a little disconcerting to feel like a stranger in a foreign land.īOTANICAL NOMENCLATURE – A TAXING EXPERIENCEįor the dilettante, botanical taxonomy can be a rather taxing experience … and so it was for the identification of all of these new flowers. During these three weeks it seemed that almost every day a bright, new face was discovered flowering in exuberant glory along the trails, challenging one’s attention with a soft whispering of “betcha you don’t know who I am”!Īnd, for this botany-challenged geologist-cum-naturalist, more often than not they were right! Because, for many of them, one could not remember ever seeing them before, let alone knowing their name. However, this was not the case! The flowering continued, steadily at first, and reaching a crescendo by the third week in April. Since no rain had been received at the Casitas after the third week of March, it seemed likely that the flowering would soon come to an end as April is traditionally a dry month in Southwest New Mexico. Looking north on Bear Creek in front of Casitas de Gila on March 31, 2015 By the end of March, the drab gray and brown Winter landscape of Bear Creek Canyon and the adjoining uplands was rapidly transitioning into the lime greens of Early Spring. Throughout March, as the days lengthened and the temperatures gradually increased, the profusion of plants steadily increased also, flourishing on the ample moisture retained in the soil from the Winter months. While all of the flowers presented in that blog were flowers that had been seen here at the Casitas before, most of them had not been seen this early in the year or in such great abundance. As discussed in that blog, this uncommon flowering occurred as a result of the 3.99 inches of rain received here between January 1 and the middle of March of this year. The March 2015 Blog focused on the exceptional blooming of the first early Spring flowers to be seen at Casitas de Gila Guesthouses in many years.

In the case of the Ryobi 767rj that we use as an example, the fuel filter line has a small retaining ring on the outside of the fuel tank helping to hold the fuel filter in place. The trimmer fuel line attached to the fuel filter will often have a couple extra pieces holding it in place. On the Ryobi 767rj, the overflow line leading from the primer bulb simply pulls out. Remove the overflow return line from the fuel tank. Remove all fuel lines from their fittings with a screwdriver.Ĩ. Place the screwdriver against the end of the fuel line and use some pressure to push it off the fitting.ħ. Hint: An easy technique for removing trimmer fuel lines from their fittings is to use a flat head screwdriver. Attempting to pull the fuel lines off their fittings risks breaking them. When installed correctly, the fuel lines should be attached to their fittings tightly. Trimmer fuel lines attach to fittings on the carburetor and primer bulb. Note which is the correct hole on the fuel tank through which the primer overflow line passes.Note which is the correct line to connect to the remaining primer bulb attachment site. Note which primer bulb connection the "out" line from the carburetor attaches to. Most primer bulbs make one fuel line connection longer than the other to help keep them straight.Note where the carburetor "out" line passes through the choke plate.Note where on the carburetor the "in" line connects.Note the hole in the choke plate through which the filtered "in" line from the fuel tank passes to the carburetor.Note the hole in the fuel tank in which the fuel filter attaches.Draw a diagram of the trimmer's fuel lines. Drawing a diagram of the fuel line arrangement can prevent mix-ups.Ħ. Other trimmers may be a little different, but their fuel line set-up is likely to be similarly complicated. The fuel lines of the Ryobi 767rj connect the fuel tank, primer bulb, and carburetor through several holes in the choke plate that allow them to pass between. įollowing this step will make your repair go a lot smoother, guaranteed. The trimmer fuel system is now removed, but it is very important to inspect and diagram the fuel line setup before continuing. Remove them together before disturbing the fuel line arrangement. The fuel tank, carburetor plate, and carburetor will still be connected together by the system's fuel lines. Remove the fuel assembly from the trimmer. Now that the carburetor is freed up, the only thing keeping you from removing the entire fuel system should be the fasteners holding the carburetor mount plate in place. Unscrew fasteners holding the mount plate. Simply lifting and tilting the carburetor will release the throttle cable. Like the Ryobi 767rj which we use as an example, most trimmer throttle cables thread through the carburetor choke plate and attach to the carburetor. Release the throttle cable from the carburetor. Many trimmer carburetors will be affixed to the engine against a plate, sometimes called a carburetor choke plate or choke plate.īecause the entire choke plate, carburetor, and fuel tank need to be removed from the trimmer, you'll have to start by releasing any fasteners on the carburetor. Remove any fasteners that affix the cover to the engine so you can access the carburetor. Remove the fuel system cover.Įvery trimmer can be a little different, and this trimmer's fuel cover is located on the rear of the engine. In the case of our demonstration trimmer, the fuel tank, carburetor, fuel lines, and carburetor mount plate will come off all together. The first step in this multi-part repair requires disassembling the trimmer enough to have access to its entire fuel system.

Either you strive to move beyond where you already are or else you continue to do what you have already done. In the end, as I see it, there are only two possibilities for a human life. Thinking thoughts and feeling emotions the same old way will never keep us content for very long, however, since every particle of our being is constantly asking us to feel better by letting go of what no longer serves us in favor of the new. The crafty (same old) mind will plead with us to do everything within our power to remain safe and in control, convincing us that danger could be lurking with the unfamiliar and new. No matter the venue or playing field, we must commit to stepping well outside the familiarity of our repeated habits of thought – our current comfy box – before anything new can begin to appear. If it doesn’t feel almost totally different or new, change is not usually taking place. It is then that thought and imagination get projected, through action, into our games and our lives. In truth, every golf shot we see gets created inside imagination first. Most of us believe our golf games are randomly happening to us because of action and hard work with very little input from our conscious and unconscious beliefs. In other words, the eyes interpret and project onto the big screen of our lives thought patterns already firing inside the brain (we see the world not the way it really is, but the way we believe it to be). The way the brain is wired, we only see outside of us what we first believe. We are taught that action leads to belief, often wondering why it takes so long for our hard work to pay off. It is a very difficult concept for most of us to understand that we are creating first by thought and then by action. Once you've experienced grit, nothing in life is impossible.Find the deepest meaning in a goal that will bring out grit in you.The greater the struggle, the more glorious the triumph.Yet, we all know that the most rewarding things in life take time.The pace of life today has spawned both an innate expectation for instant results and a dearth of delayed gratification in athletes.Grit is less common among athletes today, but is more needed.Grit - perseverance and passion for long term goals.Refusing to give up, give in, or give anything less than your best.Coming in for that extra workout without being told to do so.Ref: Fundamentals of Motor Behavior, Jeffrey Fairbrother

Researchers at the clinical pharmacology department at Radcliffe Infirmary in Oxford, England warned that grapefruit juice inhibits a chemical in the intestine needed to break down many drugs in the body. “Drinking grapefruit juice together with certain medicines can increase blood levels of the drug to harmful levels, a new report claims. Two recent articles that may be of interest are:ġ. It is not just the drug interaction, but chemical compounds within the grapefruit also can adversely effect the “healthy person” that does have some evidence of: Antiarrhythmic drugs such as amiodarone (Cordarone).Immunosuppressant drugs such as cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune), tacrolimus (Prograf) and sirolimus (Rapamune).HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors such as simvastatin (Zocor), lovastatin (Mevacor) and atorvastatin (Lipitor).Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) protease inhibitors such as saquinavir (Fortovase, Invirase) and indinavir (Crixivan).Calcium channel blockers such as felodipine (Plendil), nifedipine (Adalat, Procardia, nimodipine (Nimotop), nisoldipine (Sular) and possibly verapamil (Isoptin, Verelan).Benzodiazepines such as diazepam (Valium) and triazolam (Halcion).Antidepressants such as buspirone (BuSpar), clomipramine (Anafranil) and sertraline (Zoloft).Antiseizure drugs such as carbamazepine (Carbatrol, Tegretol).We also need to be very aware that this fruit has some significant detrimental side effects in addition to the acid creating potential, 2 of which are highlighted below:ĭrugs that are known to have potentially serious interactions with grapefruit products include: The grapefruit does inhibit the secretion within the GUT of essential enzymes which cannot function in the presence of this fruit and its chemical compounds. However this fruit should be considered as a medicine food and caution (perhaps even more than the orange) should be used when consuming it. There are health benefits that can be derived from the grapefruit and these include benefits for the heart, anti cancer and improved sleep patterns. For example, a banana with a few black spots that is almost ripe is more acidic, while a banana that is freshly ripened with a moderate amount of black spots is more alkaline. But when they are naturally ripe they are alkaline. When oranges (or grapefruit) are in an unripe state they are acid-forming. Tree ripened fruit contain higher concentrations of minerals like calcium and magnesium. Instead of the orange providing you with alkalizing calcium it now contributes to the build-up of acidity in the body. Mass produced oranges are also picked green and shipped to market to be ripened later, resulting in virtually no calcium and very little vitamin C. Another undesirable effect of consuming orange juice is tooth enamel erosion. In the absence of sweating, high acid residue can cause some undesirable liver problems. We need to be aware that the citric acid content within the orange is about 3.5 Ph and a conflict exists in colder climates because the body tries to sweat out the excess acids. We do not sweat out these toxins in our climate and, together with the increase in acidity, this is undesirable. This fruit does contain chemical compounds that can over stimulate the liver when consumed in temperate climates, releasing undesirable toxins from the liver that are free to “roam” our system. There is a big distinction to be made in so far as the chemistry of the broad citrus group is not ideal to our body needs in a temperate climate. One explanation is the high vitamin C content of citrus fruits - vitamin C is known to counteract nitrosamines, carcinogens that are implicated in stomach cancer. Research: Officials at the National Cancer Institute ( USA) believe that the increase the consumption of citrus fruits due to year-round availability has contributed to a reduction in the rate of stomach cancer in the USA.Citrus Fruits help to prevent Stomach Cancer.Research: Swedish researchers have found that citrus fruits are one of the most chosen food groups of populations with low rates of pancreatic cancer.Citrus Fruits help to prevent Pancreatic Cancer.Citrus Fruits help to prevent Inflammation (due to the Nobiletin content of Citrus Fruits).Citrus Fruits help to prevent Pharyngeal Cancer.Citrus Fruits help to prevent Esophageal Cancer.The general health benefits of citrus fruits within the Immune system is often considered because of the beneficial effects that citrus fruits hold to help prevent some types of cancer: In November 2021, non‑state issued digital assets reached a combined market capitalization of $3 trillion, up from approximately $14 billion in early November 2016.
