A slow transition to winter keeps houseplants healthy

My mandarin orange tree and spider plants enjoyed a longer vacation than I did, having spent the entire summer outdoors on the back deck. But the party ended late last month when frost threatened. So I gave them a thorough hose drenching — leaves and all — to remove any would-be hitchhikers and poured a bit of diluted Neem oil over the soil for good measure before bringing them indoors. But their transition didn’t end there.Just as when potted plants are introduced outside in spring, they undergo an acclimation period when they come back in. The difference is that at the beginning of the season, we “harden them off,” or move them into a shady spot for incrementally longer periods each day until they adjust to the stronger sunlight and breezy air of the great outdoors. The reverse, however, is often done in haste on the weatherman’s whim, so it doesn’t usually afford the same leisurely dawdling.That’s why your recently reintroduced houseplants might be turning yellow, dro...Trevena: Q3 Earnings Snapshot

LONDON (AP) — A flagship EU law intended to push European companies toward net zero faces being seriously weakened by member states, a confidential document passed to The Associated Press reveals, with firms seemingly no longer forced to implement Paris Agreement goals.The Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive was designed to make companies eliminate environmental and human rights violations throughout all areas of their business. The legislation was meant to ensure firms’ operations were aligned with a global rise in temperatures of no more than 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 Fahrenheit). But a Nov. 9 briefing obtained by The AP details a watered-down proposal that would drop the entire financial sector from the initial law. Banks and insurers are among Europe’s biggest contributors to global warming, by financing or insuring new oil and gas projects, or agribusinesses that chop down tropical rainforests. Nonprofits also warn the new proposal would mean firms merely need to ha...Beam Global: Q3 Earnings Snapshot

DENVER (KDVR) — In some states, hanging fuzzy dice, rosaries, graduation tassels, air fresheners or even masks from your rearview mirror is illegal. When it comes to Colorado law, it's fairly vague.Some states specifically prohibit hanging items from the rearview mirror. In Minnesota, the law is clear.“A person shall not drive or operate any motor vehicle with … any objects suspended between the driver and the windshield, other than: sun visors; rearview mirrors; driver feedback and safety monitoring equipment when mounted immediately behind, slightly above, or slightly below the rearview mirror,” the Minnesota law states. These Denver spots have the most car crashes It specifically mentions that no items can be between the driver and the view of the road, except for necessities.When it comes to Colorado, the law is not as obvious.There are a few statutes in Colorado for obstruction of view, but the only statute that could relate to something hanging from your rearview mirror is 4...Massive dust devil strikes Florida work site

NEW PORT RICHEY, Fla. (WSVN) — A colossal dust devil, a rare and terrifying sight, unexpectedly emerged at a Florida work site last week, caught on video by Kenneth Meeks in New Port Richey. Dust devils, short-lived and less intense tornadoes, form when the sun heats the ground during late morning or early afternoon hours.Meeks’ footage captured the swirling phenomenon, caused by light desert breezes, with wind speeds less than 70 mph. Dust devils are generally harmless, not associated with thunderstorms or clouds, making them a fascinating yet typically weak natural occurrence.Water main break floods A1A in Hollywood, causes road closure
