thats a picture of it, its about 6 weeks old, and is a tree that just started growing in our back garden, in the northwest of england. any ideas of what it could be? the picture's big, so you can see the leaves properly. (there are also small trees on either side, don't confuse the middle one with them)

I have a marble bath with all glass enclosures. Now with the soap scum and water spots, the normal soap and scrubbing action does not work anymore.
However most of the detergents say do not use on Marble?!! So how can I clean the glass without getting detergent on the marble? Or rather, is there a product out there that is safe to drip on marble? Btw, I have crema marfil, which is considered pretty porous and is beige in color.

irst of all thank you for ur care and sorry if my english isn't good enough,but found it good to tell you about it.
well,
I was in love with this guy when i was like a naive 15 -19 years old girl(that was when i even didn't have a bf)he was our neighbour and he was like 8-9 years elder than me.
the only time i could bump up with him was the time i was comming back from school,the maximum of our conversation was like this "the guy:"hi dear mary,how are u?" and from my side: "hi,thank you".
well i was a shy girl in that age and i thought that everything is to love and nothing else...
On the otherside he was a guy that was always around girls and well i was out of the boy's world.
well, one day one of my friends told me that her bf can tell that guy the story and ask him if he wants to be my friend!!
i first didn't agree it but after sometime with her insists i agreed with so many fears and so many hesitations ....(well he was the first boy which i loved and i haven't had any experienced like that before...)
the result was that he refused and told my freind's bf that"his father is like a Scarecrow in these cases[he was right in this problem] and the second reason is that she is still young and ...[my friend'd bf never told me the second reason but i knew that i was under 18 and he was elder!so i could guess it,anyway...]

Time passed and we both went find our life,i went to another city to study and graduated from univ,and i really left those chilhood stories away.
Also he moved to another area of the city to be independent from his family.

after all,i was always ashamed of that work and decision which i did when i was naive when saw him.
5-6 years passed and i became a young girl,like a 24 years old girl and i didnt see hin till last night,that i saw him with his father again in our garage of our apartment,but sadly unlike every other time which i was always the first one to say hello to his father and him,this time after hearing his voice from upstairs of apartment,i decided to not greet with them and i just quickly walked out of the steps in rush,eventhough his dad was still keeping the door open for me to go after my mom!my mom was there out of the garage and asked me loudly if i didnt see Mr..(she was wondering of my reaction).and well i was ashamed,and looked at his father and i said hello and he replied me with a wondering hello lady too.
and i looked at that guy,and although i saw his light shaking head down and short light hello from him,this time i just looked at his face and didnt say anything.
that time i really felt that i hate him and on the otherhand i remembered that his younger brother even looks at my face with and doesnt ever say hello to me (though he used to say when he was younger and now still he 3-4 years younger than me).
i want to remind u again that i was always the 1st one to tell his father and him hello till this time.
now i have a feeling like ashamed again but i know that i'm not and haven't been like this in any other cases or situations...

My mom has also told me before to not say hello to these young boys,in our neighbours as he knew them.but she was wondering why i didnt even say hello to his father,but actually the fact was i didnt wanted to look who are there,and i thought that its only him and not his father there,so i didnt even noticed who is keeping the door open for us to go first.

now what can u tell me,plz dont be teasing,i'm still shocked of what happened...) .

thanks

I'm new to herb gardening (obviously). Will the plant still grow? Can I still eat it? I pulled the flowers off yesterday, is that wrong?

I am not a real fan of granite but it seems like this is about all you see now. I'm building a new home and am trying to decide which surface (sink stains/scratches) will wear better. I haven't lived with either one but mainly don't want to "baby" the counter material . . . just use the heck out of it? Any recommendations from someone who's lived with granite or another surface?

We just bought a house and want to repaint the waynescotting. We have the paint can from when they previous owners painted but want to buy more. The paint can says "Color Tile: Designer's Touch" on it. The color is Vanilla Bean. Anyone have ideas where I can buy this brand of paint? Or do I just have to try and match the color the best I can with another brand?

The only reason I have a kitchen is because it came with the place. Whenever I use the kitchen, bad stuff happens.
