Yes, I am....I had NO idea that my Lekvar is all gone. I have a sneaking hunch WHO used the last bit up and it wasn't me. ;^)
The Botanic Gardens are gorgeous and have always loved going there. But now, with the kiddos in Texas.......;-(
If your grands aren't toddlers, then they'll be old enough for the butterflies. Tiny kids get a bit scared of anything landing on them.
Oh I know ALL about those CORPSE FLOWERS...they really DO stink to high heaven.

Beck should really do some fasting.
The rules for distributing Nevada delegates.
Tuesday 23 February 2016: Republican Party Precinct Caucuses meet. Each Precinct Caucus casts votes for Presidential candidates by secret ballot and chooses the precinct's delegates to the County Conventions. Caucuses will take place between 5p and 9p PST. Absentee ballots are permitted [Section 4]. The delegates to the County Conventions are not bound by the Presidential vote.
- All 30 National Convention delegates are proportionally bound to Presidential contenders based on today's caucus vote.
- A 3.33% threshold is required in order for a contender to be allocated delegates [1 ÷ 30 delegates = 3.33%].
- Rule 1.0 says "National Delegates ... shall be allocated proportionally based on the final results ... rounded to the nearest whole number" while Subsection 8.1 says "When rounding off numbers in the calculation of the allocation of Delegates, the calculation will be based on the largest remainder method". Standing Rules 1.0 and 8.1 appear to be contradictory.
Interpretation A:
For those candidates receiving 3.33% or more of the vote: The number of delegates = 30 à (candidate's popular vote) ÷ (total statewide vote for those candidates exceeding the threshold) rounded to the nearest whole number. If a delegate remains, round up the candidate with the largest remainder (?). Not sure what to do if rounding allocates too many delegates.
Interpretation B (largest remainder method -- we will use this one):
For those candidates receiving 3.33% or more of the vote: The number of delegates = 30 à (candidate's popular vote) ÷ (total statewide vote for those candidates exceeding the threshold). Award each candidate the whole number of delegates. Beginning with the candidate with the largest remainder, round up to the next whole number. Repeat for the next highest remainder until all delegates are allocated. - - - -

Well I am living in my own little delusional world...We got up to 60 on Saturday, and it has bee wonderful the past few days—but tomorrow, more snow...
I did buy vegetable seeds today in an effort to reduce my fever (Spring Fever)—For all you gardeners, Menards Hardware has a sale this week—25% off their regular (40% off) pricing on Burpee seeds. Good selection and great pricing :)

Holy cow! If he takes 50%, this will be two out of eight states where he gets a majority of delegates, eight states "majority delegates" being the threshhold for being entered into nomination.
Like "pair of jacks or better to open" in poker.
No other candidate has even one state against this threshhold.
