PAL Question: |
The variegated vinca growing in light shade in my garden has lost its white borders. Should I move it to a sunnier location? |
View Answer: |
The technical term for a loss of variegation is reversion. Variegation can be affected by light conditions as well as other factors, as this information from the Royal Horticultural Society suggests: "Variegation may vary during the year and is often less apparent in late summer. Where there is a permanent loss of colour inadequate light is often the cause. Waterlogging can also lead to loss of leaf colour. Reversion may also occur where more vigorous green shoots outgrow variegated shoots." |
Here is a link to some helpful information about variegated plants, from a now-defunct website which was called Enjoy Gardening: |
"Understanding all the science behind variegation is quite complicated, so here is the nutshell version. For variegation to be stable, the variegation trait must be caused by a mutated cell or a group of cells that are fit enough to grow and multiply, and those cells must originate in a region of the plant where they are involved in generating new variegated gene cells. For example, if the mutation originates in a section of a leaf or stem where normal tissue can outgrow the mutation, the variegation pattern will often be unstable and disappear. However, when there is an 'island' of mutated cells within a growing point or tip, the variegation has a greater chance of being stable... Of course, to every set of rules there are always exceptions, which is why it's quite common for completely stable varieties of plants to lose their patterns over time. And that's exactly what happens with some variegated Euonymus shrubs when the 'normal' buds produce leaves that have more chlorophyll than the variegated leaves have. Having more chlorophyll allows the normal leaves to grow faster and to out-compete the variegated foliage. In this case, the solution to preserving variegation is to get out the pruners and to lop off the emerging threat of normalcy." |
As suggested above, you can try cutting off the non-variegated ('normal') foliage and hope that the variegated foliage will return to dominance. |

Luiz Felipe Scolari: It hurt to turn down England |
Brazilian was offered the job in 2006 |
Luiz Felipe Scolari begins his second spell as Brazil coach at a stadium he might have called home. Scolari said it was a matter of regret that he was unable to accept the FA's offer to take charge of England in 2006. |
"When I was invited to be national coach I still had a contract with the Portugal national team and I was not willing to break that contract," the 64-year-old admitted. "It was my duty to fulfil that contract. Imagine in 2006 what would have happened if we played together and I already had the contract with the England national team. |
"Of course it hurts. It hurt a lot. I would have loved to be manager of the England national team. Who wouldn't? It's a wonderful national team and I hope I will have the opportunity tomorrow to talk to [Frank] Lampard and Ashley Cole, and I wish all the best for the English players and their manager on their path of innovation and who knows, you never know what might happen one day." |
Scolari eventually made his way to England two years later when he was appointed coach of Chelsea in the summer of 2008. Barely six months later he was gone. He declined to comment on the continued hire-and-fire policy of owner Roman Abramovich, only to add that he enjoyed his time in charge in west London. |
"What I remember about Chelsea is simply marvellous. I had a great time here," Scolari said. "I loved my time here when I lived here, when I trained here with this spectacular club. |
"What is happening now, I don't have any opinion on that, I can't answer that. The person who can answer that is the person who is there right now, doing the job. When I was in Chelsea they were qualifying for the Champions League, doing well in the tournament and playing in the FA Cup so that was good work." |

Randomised Algorithms |
5th August 2002 to 16th August 2002 |
Organisers: Martin Dyer (Leeds), Mark Jerrum (Edinburgh), Peter Winkler (Bell Labs) |
Supported by the European Commission, Research DG, Human Potential Programme, High-Level Scientific Conferences - HPCF-2001-00105 |
Conference Theme |
As the analysis of algorithms has matured as a discipline, it has drawn from (and inspired) increasingly sophisticated mathematics. This is particularly true of the analysis of randomised algorithms. The conference aims to stimulate progress in this interdisciplinary area, by bringing together computer scientists with probability theorists and others working in relevant areas of mathematics, such as the theory of stochastic processes. |
The programme is in two parts. The first part will be concerned with mathematical foundations, for example, random walks on graphs, concentration of measure, etc. The second part is concerned with design and analysis of algorithms which make random choices - including Monte Carlo and Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms and deterministic algorithms when run on random instances. The main criterion for inclusion of an application is that the analysis should make significant and preferably novel use of tools from probability theory. The first Monday and Tuesday of the conference may be used for introductory and survey talks, designed to orient newcomers to the topics. |

JV netters end season with win in Hoopa |
Redwood Times |
The JV netters came from behind to beat Hoopa on the road for the last match of their season last Tuesday 20-25, 25-18, 15-13. |
Freshman Emma Valk, who also plays varsity, led the scoring with 10 points and had 5 digs and 2 kills as well. Sophomore Lily Farrell had 7 points, kills and 4 digs, sophomore Libbi Hartl had 5 points with 7 digs and 4 kills and junior Briana Font had 3 points with 4 digs and 3 kills. Freshman Ruthann Goodfield had 3 points with 4 digs and a kill and freshman Jasmine Carr had 2 points and 2 digs. |
"I’m glad I could do this (JV) program this year," said head coach Lisa Todd. "It can help a program so much when the girls that wouldn’t see a lot of playing time on varsity get to play. It’s hard to see a player come to practice, work hard and do the conditioning just to sit on the bench." |

Nano-tool for designing the next big battery: Eavesdropping on lithium ions |
July 8, 2013 |
Michigan Technological University |
It's a jungle down there at batteries' atomic level, with ions whacking into electrodes, eventually causing the battery to fail. Now, a scientist has developed a device that lets researchers spy on the actions of lithium ions inside a nanobattery -- and use that data to develop better, longer-lasting batteries to power everything from electric cars to cell phones. |
Above (a), the nanobattery setup inside AC-STEM. Below (b), atomic resolution imaging of the front line of lithium ions entering a SnO2 nanowire. The images show the parallel Li-ion channels and the formation of dislocations at the tip of the channels. |

"You might get seven or eight hours out of your iPhone on one charge, maybe a day," says Reza Shahbazian-Yassar, an associate professor of mechanical engineering at Michigan Technological University. "This is not enough for many of us. A fully electric car, like the Nissan Leaf, can go up to 100 miles on a single charge. To appeal to a mass market, it should be about 300 miles. We want to increase the power of these systems." |
To wring more power out of lithium ion batteries, scientists are experimenting with different materials and designs. However, the important action in a battery occurs at the atomic level, and it's been virtually impossible to find out exactly what's happening at such a scale. Now, Yassar has developed a device that allows researchers to eavesdrop on individual lithium ions -- and potentially develop the next generation of batteries. |
