Calif. flower shop with no connection to Capitol riot flooded with threats, negative reviews - SFGate

At first, Alberti tried to delete the growing number of comments, which he found downright disturbing. “People have written things like, ‘I hope you get cancer,’ ‘I hope your shop burns down,’ ‘I hope you die,’ ‘I hope you rot in jail,’” he said. “And those are the polite ones.” Contrarily, Alberti added that the shop even received a love letter intended for Cudd from a firefighter living in Florida. “To be honest, they both concern me,” he said. In response to the harassment, Alberti notified the Roseville Police Department, which has been periodically sending out officers to check in on the shop. He also contacted Yelp, which he said acted quickly to remove the misguided comments, as well as Google, though he’s still awaiting a response. of this store since 1973.We are getting hate messages and bad reviews as a result. To our customers, please know that we were not part of that. Thank you for your continued trust and please ignore the hate reviews that are not meant for us.— Becky's Flowers (@BeckysFlowersCA) January 8, 2021 “It was just crickets,” he said. “Which was frustrating, because somehow all of (Cudd’s) negative reviews were removed from her page and likely identified as a targeted attack, and we’re the ones dealing with the repercussions.” (At the time this article was published, most of the negative Google reviews for Alberti’s business appeared to have been removed from the platform. However, Cudd’s business also has a 4.6 rating.) Two other florists bearing the same name in Kentucky and Scotland were burdened with similar harassment. Alberti said all of them have given up on deleting the comments, and are instead attempting to respond to each one in order to set the record straight. “I offered to send some people maps of the United States,” joked Alberti. “Most people apologize and then they reverse, but some are steadfast. My thing is, I understand the need to vent and get rid of that hostility, but just spend an extra five seconds of time to see that we’re not in Texas. The very platforms that these people are using to type these rants and tirades … it would take them less time to find out we’re not that business than it would take for them to write the post.” He’s concerned about what the future holds for his business, which has been around since 1973 and spans four generations. “We’re just trying to survive,” said Alberti. “Being a florist is hard enough. We don’t have a high profit margin. We do it because we love it and love flowers.

Blue Flowers? From Touya or Endeavor? (My Hero Academia) - Greenville College Papyrus

Their first child is Touya, a boy with a blue-flamed fire quirk. Anyone who knows about fire understands blue flames are the hottest flames. While training, it is discovered that Touya’s quirk burns his skin. Touya was born with a body that was meant to wield an ice quirk, but instead, he wielded fire. This is a disappointment in Endeavor’s eyes, labeling Touya as a failure. Endeavor and Rei soon have three more children. The last child to be born is an exact split of both parents. Shoto can wield both fire and ice, so he is perfect in Endeavor’s eyes. Shoto is introduced as the storyline follows the main character. Shoto despises his father and wants nothing to do with his plans. Endeavor later states he wants to make up for everything he has done. In a few short scenes following this, it is revealed that Touya is dead and no explanation is given. Media by Studio Bones.Most of the previous information regarding Touya’s past is newly-received and only given to fans in recent chapters. Fans have been putting together pieces ever since Touya was revealed to be dead. A villain who is very prominent in the series suspiciously had a fire quirk and was covered in so many scars he would be unrecognizable from the past. This villain is only known as Dabi. Since his reveal, many fans have gone to claim he is Touya seeking revenge. Media by Kohei Horikoshi.The newest chapters were recently leaked, and it was revealed Dabi is Touya. Fans quickly latched onto the fact someone has been leaving blue flowers in Rei’s room, and it was not revealed who. The majority just went with the idea it was Endeavor. Recently, after the chapter leaks, the connection was made that the blue flowers were representative of Touya’s blue flames and that it had to be his doing. In the leaks, Touya made sure his mother found out, as he wanted to show he cared about her still because she was not his enemy. All Touya wanted was justice for what had happened to him. Many fans want to believe that Touya still has good in him, which is why they have latched onto the theory.

Stuck inside? Tips for indoor gardening to bring green to your space while quarantined - USA TODAY

Desert-dwellers have known for millennia it's a soothing treatment for minor burns. In the coronavirus crisis, it's a main ingredient of homemade hand sanitizer.Depending on where you live, you can probably visit your local garden center (and certainly its website) because it is considered an "essential" business still open during government-ordered shutdowns. As in the case of Merrifield, most gardening centers' products are outdoors on sprawling properties, so social distancing is possible.Here are some tips for indoor or urban gardeners provided by these experts:1. Get a seed-starter kitTender plants, including tomatoes, basil and peppers, or flowers such as marigolds, moon vine and salvia, can be started indoors and planted outdoors in pots or window boxes later in the spring, says Warhurst. "You can use a seed starting mix, plant the seeds in trays or small pots, and place them in the sunniest area possible and keep them moist." Tzvi Rauch, founder of Tier II Landscape Design in Brooklyn, New York, says he likes the Burpee Seed Starter Tray he bought on Amazon (about $40), which features a greenhouse-like transparent plastic cover over trays of 72 little pockets filled with "super-growing soil pellets" to grow such veggies and greens as lettuce, cucumbers, peppers and squash. "You buy the seeds on Amazon, add water on the soil, it blows up and you put in the seeds, and then mark each section and close the lid," Rauch says. "Put it in a sunny window. Within days they start growing. It's fascinating and really easy for urban people." 2. Go for easy-to-grow plants Schultz says some indoor plants need almost no care at all.A snake plant, also known as the "Mother-in-Law's Tongue," has air-cleaning properties according to recent studies, needs little light and "it's just plain hard to kill."A kalanchoe is a beautiful succulent that doesn’t need much water to thrive, he says, and a  jade plant might be the best plant for “brown thumbs” because it’s beautiful and tough enough to thrive on neglect.3. Grow vegetable scrapsKids might like this one: Many leafy vegetables such as romaine lettuce and bok choy will regrow from the parts you don't eat. Just cut off 1-2 inches at the base, put it aside (cut side up) in a bowl or shallow saucer filled with about a ½ inch of water. Place it in a sunny spot and watch the roots start to grow, then transplant it into soil in a pot.4. Grow a vegetable gardenIf you're feeling a yen for tomatoes and you've got a sunny patio or balcony, self-watering growing containers, such as City Jungle from Bio Green, make it easy to grow two full-sized tomato plants or whatever vegetables and herbs you choose. The built-in water reservoir automatically keeps plants watered.5. Grow flowering plantsMany flowering plants are easy to grow, says Schultz. African violets thrive in bright, indirect sunlight. Abutilon "Little Sunshine" plants from Logees.com is a good choice for a sunn... https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/2020/03/31/coronavirus-quarantine-tips-garden-indoors-while-stuck-inside/2928016001/

Artistry with flowers - Newport News Times

Richardson said she had eyed that location several years ago.“I’ve always been interested in this location. Before my husband and I moved to the area, we kind of came on a tour of the Oregon coast. And when we came to Newport, this spot was available — that was like 2013. I looked at this space but the rent was pretty high.”Instead of opening her own florist shop at that time, she and Ryan decided to open CrossFit Newport at 710 NE Third St., and Tarrah went to work for the former owner of Newport Florist and Gifts, Carla Williams.“I’ve been a florist for 26 years. Carla Williams hired me, and by December 2014, I knew she wanted to sell. We bought it in March 2015,” she said.Tarrah and Ryan own and operate both businesses, and for the last five years, she has been running the florist shop at its previous location at Newport’s Bay Bridge Mall. Although she liked that space, it was somewhat hidden from view, so she began checking out other spots. She and Ryan looked at more than a half dozen locations and ultimately had the opportunity to move to the spot they had looked at years before. They spent almost two weeks doing interior work, painting every single surface, pouring self-leveling concrete on the floors, and installing a new front door and garage door. “We’re going to put new fencing in back. It’s still in process,” she said.“This building is great. And one of the things I really love about this space is I love to do classes, and it just has a lot more room. And it has the space for the walk-in cooler.”Richardson said, “The whole thing I would like to convey … is Newport... https://newportnewstimes.com/article/artistry-with-flowers
