Re: books

If it's not sewn, you can put it back together with a padding clamp and padding compound. You may be able to get Kinko's to do it for you.

I just went through the local continuing ed lists. No bookbinding. I
don't really care how it looks, just want it to be durable and hold
together. It's in chunks now. I'd have to look closer to see if the
chunks are string bound or if everything is just glue.

I'd look around for a bookbinding class. It's really easy to bind or
rebind books. And if you go for plain old buckram, it's also fairly
cheap. If you want leather with gold stamping, it's a bit more but
still fairly cheap if you do it yourself.

BTW - what do you-all do when bindings give out? I haven't checked
yet but assume a rebinding service would be pretty expensive.

For zone 8-9 (Stockton, CA) in partial shade. Prefer blue. A
sturdy
hard-to-kill variety.

Trying to help a friend out finding some plants that might
survive her
care : )

Also, other recommendations for shrubs that do well in shade, can
stand
up to the potential of a dog occassionally running through them,
and
require minimal care? Something that flowers, or has some other
interest would be nice! The house is rather mediteranean looking.

I'm thinking about majonia, camelia, but looking for more
ideas....
