Globulars off the beaten path?

Im going to a yellow zone (sorta bordering an orange zone) this weekend. I'm going to mark off as many Messiers as I can, but I really want to set aside some time for a little off the beaten path observing. I just want to focus on globs. So what are some good globs that are not as well known? Thanks in advance!

How to surprise kids about disney world...?

We are going to Disney World this summer. My wife and I want to surprise our 7 year old with the trip and we want it to be something he never forgets. What would be the best way to surprise him? and no we don't want to just wake him up and tell him, or not tell him and just arrive at DW. We want something more original, more of a shock, maye let him unravel clues to figure it out. What do you think?

What is the fastest first-year growing bamboo with highest yield?

In our nursery in Florida, we grow or have grown several varieties of bamboo. The preferred has been one of the the Multiplex species due to relative speed and ease to produce. With the Moso and other tall timber bamboo, the height of your ceiling won't limit their growth. They will keep going, even curling and coiling as they hit the ceiling. I would be looking for one of the Multiplexes. Perhaps Fernleaf, Alphonse Karr, Golden Goddess or Silver Stripe. You can go to one of the trade magazines (online) that we use to source some of the growers of various plants at www.plantfindervts.com and search for Bambusa in the green goods search. It will pull up a list of various bamboo and some growers. Some phone calls to them may get your answer. At my nursery it is just the Fernleaf and Hedge Bamboo in production. Dig up a little of the field grown stock bamboo and stick it in a container. With some water, fertilizer and weed control, a full 6-8' bamboo is produced in a 15 gallon container in as little as 18 months. Canes are smaller, typically less than an inch, but it is a good bamboo. The other species mentioned above get bigger canes over an inch. Oldhamii is the giant bamboo we used to grow (canes 4-6" and fast) but it was to fast and quickly became difficult to care for if there were not buyers. If you can find someone that has bamboo, of any kind, see if they will let cut/dig some of it out and start your own.

MY VIOLIN WONT TUNE!?

ok this is gonna take some practice, but heres what you do: as you tune your string with the peg, push the peg farther into the peg box with your hand. use your other hand to brace your violin so it doesnt go flying. this will take some practice. if this doesnt work, get an orchestra teacher, private lesson teacher, luthier (violin maker), or music store owner to help. most of the aformentioned people will have a kind of sticky liquid that the can put on your pegs to make them stick more
