In this guide we'll take a look at the best lawn scarifiers for the UK market.
What Is The Best Lawn Scarifier?
The Bosch AVR 1100 Verti Cutter Lawn Raker is a very powerful model and it's the best lawn scarifier on the market. It's an electric scarifier but has some oomph behind it with a 'Powerdrive' 1100 watt motor that increases torque when it needs to get to grips with a particularly tangled bit of thatch.
This grass scarifier pulls out and picks up all the dead vegetation with a 'Jet-Collect System' which is a grand way of saying it has an air inflow that uproots dead moss and blasts it into the collection box so it doesn't get jammed.
This electric scarifier has four height settings ranging from -10mm to +5 and that's important because this model is a drum system scarifier or aerator depending on its height.
There are 14 steel blades on the 32cm width working capacity which means it's tough and you'll have fewer trips up and down the garden. The capacity box takes a whopping 50 litres of thatch which is more than others, so there's less emptying too. If you're on the impatient side like me these are great features.
It weighs 9.9 kilos – just the job when you're moving it around and fighting the bumps and jumps from your not-so-flat lawn.
Storage is a cinch as the ergonomic handle folds down to 40cms high, and the collection box is stackable.
This is an excellent well-made lawn scarifier that does a great job on medium-sized lawns needing some TLC. In my opinion it's the best lawn scarifier for the money!
The VonHaus 2 in 1 Electric Lawn Scarifier and Aerator is another solid lawn scarifier comes in a close second.
Let's start with its powerful 1500 watt electric motor. It suits very mossy, thatched lawns and grass that hasn't been touched for a long time. This is one of the strongest electric scarifiers you'll find – if you want more power you'll have to go for a petrol version.
It has interchangeable aerating and scarifying rollers that fit on a single dual-purpose drum, but it's easy to switch between the two. Tip up the grey cover and swap rollers using the supplied allen key – being careful to remove the power source first of course.
The Von Haus electric scarifier has four working depths so you can lightly scarify or carry out an in-depth purify that scalps the moss and leaves you free to re-seed. In case you were wondering, the aerating roller is also the roller that does the raking work.
There's a height adjustable handle to save your back, although it's only 8.5kgs so hardly a heavyweight and easy to move around.
It has a 40-litre box capacity and a 10-metre cable so you won't need to worry too much about dragging an extension lead around with you or frequently emptying the box.
This electric lawn rake is packed with high quality features and it's versatile performance makes this the best scarifier for small and medium sized gardens.
The Black & Decker GD300 is a 7kg electric lawn raker with a 600-watt motor which is plenty powerful enough for small to medium sized gardens.
If you struggle with heavy tools this is the best lawn scarifier for you because that small motor means it's light and very easy to manoeuvre.
It's small but still has a 30cm raking width and three rows of tines that sit at three variable working heights. The lowest setting removes thatch and debris embedded in the lawn, the second suits a general maintenance raking, and the highest setting collects leaves and grass clippings.
The collection bag is detachable which is great because it's fairly small. Some people recommend removing the bag, raking out the old thatch and then collecting it on the highest setting when they've finished.
This electric lawn rake has lots of safety features such as an automatic switch off when you let go of the handle, and a cable management set-up to prevent accidentally chopping the 10-metre lead.
This is a lightweight lawn raker for small gardens and year-round maintenance. It offers a high level of performance despite its affordable price; and in my opinion its the best lawn scarifier on a budget.
Flymo is a recognisable name in the garden and this electric lawn rake lives up to the brand reputation!
It has a 750-watt motor and a powerful cylinder rake to pull out all the dead grass and moss that's smothering your lawn.
The cutting width isn't too shabby either at 34cm to cut working time and it has a nifty collection box that compacts moss so you're not emptying it every five minutes. It'll hold 34 litres of thatch and has a window so you can see how you're doing.
This grass scarifier has the most working heights out of my recommendations. There are six ranging from -5mm up to +8mm.
If you like precision work and want to choose your own depths this machine will keep you happy. The levels are selected with a single lever so it's not a painful and tedious experience.
Weighing in at 12.6kgs it's heavier than the rest, but it's still pretty compact for storage, measuring just 46cm when folded down.
If you want a high quality electric lawn rake to rely on this is a good bet. This Flymo Lawn Raker is more than capable of removing dead thatch and aerating the lawn.
This AL-KO Grass Scarifier is a powerful 2 in 1 lawn scarifier with enough guts to clear a medium to large lawn.
The 1300 watt motor is plenty powerful enough to dig out thatch and it's got the largest working width of my recommendations at 38cms.
This grass scarifier weighs in at 17.1kgs so it's heftier than others but that power needs to come from somewhere, so you can't complain.
AL-KO has thought about this machine because it has a light fabric collection bin that'll hold 55 litres, a 12-metre cable, plus enlarged air vents to prevent overheating. That makes a difference if you're tacking a large area.
The scarifying roller has 14 steel blades to remove moss, weeds and thatch and there are five working depths easily switched with a simple lever.
There's a separate raking roller with steel spring tines to aerate the lawn, but the tool-less cassette means it's a doddle to switch over.
The ergonomics are sound on this model which is important as it's a heavier machine. There's a shaped handlebar for easy grip and it is height adjustable. The whole machine folds down for simple storage too.
So you're looking for a lawn scarifier? Good idea.
It might seem like a faff, but scarifying your lawn means it'll last longer and look smart all year.
There are plenty of scarifiers on the market. Some are top notch, whereas others are rickety and make barely a scuff in the soil.
To help you choose I have hand selected the five best lawn scarifier options on the market. I've compared them by power, capability and function.
The right grass scarifier will depend on what state your lawn is in.
Those of you that have looked after the lawn can get away with a cheaper machine that doesn't dig so deeply, but if you've got a very thatched lawn then a more powerful machine with a deep working depth is in order.
Here are some tips for choosing the best lawn scarifier.
Blades are important because it's these that do the hard work.
The more teeth the better! Bear in mind that lots of long teeth will make a mess of your current lawn – but this is temporary. The grass will grow back quickly and it'll look so much better for the rain and oxygen.
Look for good quality metal teeth. Stainless steel or tempered steel will last longer than plastic for example.
You can buy replacement teeth for some machines and if you're splashing out on a pricey model its worth checking before you commit.
A selection of working depths is important. Scarifying (removing the dead moss and thatch) isn't a deep action – it only needs to be deep enough to yank out the thatch.
Deeper teeth aerate the lawn by pricking holes in it. This is good as it allows rain and oxygen to replenish the grass, so look for adjustable heights.
Obviously the larger the cutting width the less time it'll take to scarify the lawn.
Scarifiers require manhandling around corners and they can jump around too. Make your life easier by choosing one that suits your height. An adjustable handlebar is worth its weight in gold and ergonomic handles are pretty much essential unless you have the grip of a boa constrictor.
Electric scarifiers are the most popular because they are light weight with considerable power.
An electric lawn scarifier is best for small to medium-sized lawns. They do a great job of hauling the moss and thatch from your grass with minimal effort on your part.
They are pretty quiet compared to petrol offerings and need little in the way of maintenance. Plus you won't be choking on emissions.
If you're scarifying once or twice a year an electric lawn scarifier is the best choice for you.
Petrol scarifiers are best for large lawns with lots of weed as they are heavy duty and offer up strong aeration. If the area you need to tackle is pure dead weed and moss then an electric offering may just bounce off whereas a petrol powered scarifier will grind it out.
They are noisy creations though so wear some ear defenders and be prepared for more maintenance such as spark plugs and filter changes.
If you have the energy a simple handheld scarifier is going to suit you.
Manual scarifiers are quiet, easy to store and don't require any maintenance other than scrapping the rust off. A simple rake and a push-along aerator will do the job, but if you like usual tools buy some aerating shoes that spike the grass as you walk around.
Are Scarifiers Worth The Effort?
So there we have scarifiers. I've done my best to explain what they are and how to use one, but if you're still confused about the whole scarifier versus lawn-raker set up – just remember that scarifiers are usually more heavy duty and reach further into the soil.
It's very tempting to just leave that lawn, I mean who has time to play around when there are BBQs and snoozing to accomplish in the fine weather, but try to make time because eventually your daisy-strewn lawn will turn brown, soggy and look awful because dead thatch is killing the grass.
Good luck, go easy with the machine and you'll enjoy a healthy lawn for years to come. Scarifying is totally worth the effort, I promise.
What Exactly Is A Scarifier?
It's a machine that pulls out the dead grass, known as thatch, and moss from your choking lawn. This allows fresh new green grass to push through.
They look a lot like lawnmowers with four wheels, a handlebar and a collecting box.
Scarifiers also aerate the lawn when its blades push into the soil. This allows air and water to penetrate.
Lawn-rakers pull out the thatch but they don't generally cut into the soil, however you can get a machine that does both either with a cassette change or by changing blade height.
Does A Scarifier Make A Difference?
They do make a difference but whether you need one depends on how you want your lawn to look. If you like springy moss, daises and little mowing leave it be for now. If you prefer green grass get a scarifier!
If you don't ever scarify the lawn then weeds, grass clippings, moss and dead plant matter clog up the surface. This means rain and light can't get through, the grass doesn't get enough nutrients and eventually it will die off.
If your lawn is developing large brown patches, it's definitely time to scarify because water isn't getting through to hydrate the new shoots – it's a dark and dank place where midges can lay their eggs.
After you've scarified the grass it might look, well, dreadful! But don't worry because grass grows at lightning speed and it'll soon be back greener and fresher than ever.
What Does A Lawn Scarifier Do?
Whereas your lawnmower keeps the grass at a manageable height, it doesn't remove the dead grass and moss. The teeth on a scarifier or lawn-raker claw at the soil and pull out the dead stuff so the grass can breathe.
The blades or tines spin quickly, cutting into the soil at a few mm of depth to get the dead plants out. It then throws it all into a collection box attached to the machine.
It is surprising how quickly these fill up, the volume of dead thatch and moss always takes me by surprise. Even if it looks clean and green there's always dead stuff lurking.
How To Use A Lawn Scarifier?
For best results and the greenest lawn, you should scarify once or twice a year. Once in spring when the grass is growing strongly to start the season off right, and again in autumn to remove the year's waste – but only if it needs it.
Before you begin you need to kill any live moss. This prevents the spores flying all over the garden and taking over. Use a good quality moss killer and wait until its gone brown.
Chose a dry day so the lawn doesn't turn into a mudbath and ensure you've given the grass a cut a few days beforehand.
Chose the highest setting on your scarifier and just as if you were mowing the lawn push it around. Choosing the highest setting prevents motor burn out, and emptying the collection box keeps the motor cool.
For the second pass use a lower setting and so on. If you do the second pass at a right angle you'll get better coverage.
Wear protective clothing because scarifiers throw debris into the air such as stones, random pegs and all of last year's BBQ waste that's still there under the thatch waiting to fly out. I was once slashed in the leg by a metal tent peg I'd used to hold down a cloche but it could have been worse – better safe than sorry.
Wear protective glasses and sturdy shoes at the very least. If it's hot consider wearing gloves to avoid slippage. If you have a petrol scarifier wear noise-cancelling headphones or earplugs.
Once you've pulled out the dead thatch you might find there's little left! Now is a good time to re-seed.


Suzanne Collins: Writing "War Stories"?
Earlier this month, Rick Margolis of School Library Journal sat down with Suzanne Collins to talk about the upcoming finale to her Hunger Games trilogy, Mockingjay (The Last Battle: With 'Mockingjay' on its way, Suzanne Collins weighs in on Katniss and the Capitol). I thought there were four points, at least, worth exploring here in our countdown to Mockingjay's 24 August publication date: her assertion that the books are "absolutely, first and foremost, war stories," her hope that the books would bring us closer to a time when there would be no wars, her Katniss and Spartacus comments, and her thoughts about the symbolism of the Mockingjay.
I mean, really… Theseus and Katniss' stories are not the sort of thing her father was telling her about, I'm sure, when they were surveying the parade grounds at West Point. These are adventures with people, very young people, trying to kill each other while others watch. We're a long, long way from 'Band of Brothers' and 'Sands of Iwo Jima,' no? I hope very much that someone can explain to me what she meant by "war stories" that jibes with her previous comments about the myths and her growing up in a military family that took the idea of war seriously, even studiously.
What do you hope young readers take away from your books?
One of the reasons it's important for me to write about war is I really think that the concept of war, the specifics of war, the nature of war, the ethical ambiguities of war are introduced too late to children. I think they can hear them, understand them, know about them, at a much younger age without being scared to death by the stories. It's not comfortable for us to talk about, so we generally don't talk about these issues with our kids. But I feel that if the whole concept of war were introduced to kids at an earlier age, we would have better dialogues going on about it, and we would have a fuller understanding.
Can those dialogues help put an end to war?
Eventually, you hope. Obviously, we're not in a position at the moment for the eradication of war to seem like anything but a far-off dream. But at one time, the eradication of slave markets in the United States seemed very far off. I mean, people have to begin somewhere. We can change. We can evolve as a species. It's not simple, and it's a very long and drawn-out process, but you can hope.
The analogy of writing stories in which war is portrayed unsympathetically works, I guess, with her Wilberforce analogy for the eradication of the slave trade, but we have a problem. The books do not show war in an unsympathetic light, do they? You have to be a pretty cold fish and appeaser not to want the Districts to rise up against the Capitol; Katniss as Mockingjay is the symbol of the rebellion and the coming war with whom readers identify.
It's an interesting question because the evil regime she has set up in the Capitol is a picture of the US as the world sees us rather than of a more readily despised stand-in for, say, Big Brother totalitarianism or Theo-fascism. It's a story only a military brat could write, i.e., someone who grew up in the Districts we occupy around the world, like Germany and Okinawa.
But once the "Hunger Games" story takes off, I actually would say that the historical figure of Spartacus really becomes more of a model for the arc of the three books, for Katniss. We don't know a lot of details about his life, but there was this guy named Spartacus who was a gladiator who broke out of the arena and led a rebellion against an oppressive government that led to what is called the Third Servile War. He caused the Romans quite a bit of trouble. And, ultimately, he died.
(4) On the Mockingjay symbolism: I think one or two All-Pros have noted that this was a nice confirmation of what we have discussed here before and accepted as something of a 'given' in thinking about Katniss' role in the finale (see Elizabeth's second Birds-in-Hunger-Games post, for example, or survey the several articles). Still, it was something to see the author be so open about her intended meaning.
Ms. Collins is quite a bit different in this regard than either Ms. Rowling or Mrs. Meyer, both of whom, albeit in different fashions, do not discuss anything much below the surface narrative. Mrs. Meyer denies there is anything beneath the surface, I think, because so much of the meaning is acutely personal and upsetting; Ms. Rowling joins ranks with the tradition in not "going there" lest she narrow the conversation down to her conscious intentions. Ms. Collins, perhaps because not that many people are discussing her books, at least compared with the Twilight and Hogwarts sagas, is very up-front that her books are carrying allegorical freight, even didactic messages.
I'm not if that's a good thing or a bad thing in the long run — but it sure is refreshing!
Your comments and corrections, as always, are coveted. Please refer to the numbers one to four above so we can follow what you're responding to — and, yes, there will be a separate post on the "blood-on-the-breath" issue!
1) I agree that the first two books are not in the nature of war stories. However, I suspect that the third will be very much a story about the war of the rebellion. I think the first two books were a lead up to the war.
2) I agree on your comments about The Hunger Games helping to end war. I would add that I think it takes quite a bit of naiveté to think that human nature will change enough to eliminate war. I don't see Ms. Collins as being naive enough to really believe such a change will happen.
3) I don't see her comment as really suggesting that Katniss will die at the end. I do think that the similarity between The Hunger Games and the story of Sparticus are very similar. However, Sparticus did not have a District 13 with nuclear weapons to help his rebellion either. I expect that Katniss and the rebellion with both be successful in the end.
2) She's making a very strong case in the books that there are times when war is not only just, it is necessary. The ending of Catching Fire, with the firebombing destruction of District 13 is geared to make the reader eager for retribution on a dissipated and cruel Capitol, with even Capitol citizens and leaders ready for the fray.
But I understood her to say that we shield children too much from understanding war, which is a disservice to them because they're unprepared to carefully examine their own times and how to negotiate them. I think her slavery comparison is simply to say that hope is a good thing, that we should always want to end war and work toward that goal, though it's unlikely.
3) She says that Spartacus was a model for the story arc, and I'm good with that. I don't think she'd give away something so key.
Collins, I think, makes a fairly level-headed response to the question. She doesn't even say war definitely will be eradicated, but, "Let's hope that the day will come when it will." She's not portrayed an "unsympathetic" view of war, meaning she believes it must happen at times. But surely we also understand when it must happen, it happens because people have done evil and forced the hand of those who must fight.
So the anti-war "hope" expressed by Collins, I think, is no contradiction with her giving us a heroine, Katniss, who will go to war when she must, but rather a pointer to the purpose of showing us the Capitol so clearly. The portrayal of the Capitol is a picture of what millions of kids are being raised to be today: fashionistas and celebrity-worshipers. And it's that dehumanization that causes many to never consider the horrors of war and mindlessly follow a totalitarian government. It's Capitol people who prop up evil regimes.
I feel that Collins was meaning warTIME stories. They have a similar feeling, to me, as French Resistance stories. Small acts of resistance against an aggressive and punitive occupier. Kind of like The Shire under Sharkey. Katniss and family are like the Cottons, District 13 like the Hobbits returning to the Shire.
Sorry in advance for a long comment. I was hoping this article would generate some discussion.
1. I wondered after reading the Gregor books and the Hunger Games if Collins wasn't, at least on some level, writing out her own experience growing up in a military family through her books. Maybe she has a few things in common with her protagonists – fairly young kids whose dads are gone because of war. (Assuming that Katniss' dad was killed in an "accident" meant to take out rebels.) Gregor's dad disappears and the neighbors decide he's run off from his family, probably after another woman. But his dad is actually a POW in the underland – a place they know nothing about – not some bum.
It makes me wonder what kinds of things Collins might have heard people say about US soldiers like her dad fighting in Vietnam. It certainly wasn't a popular war, if there is such a thing.
Hunger Games, and especially Catching Fire, didn't really strike me as war stories, but I wonder if that was what her experience with war was like at that age. Readers are somewhat shielded from the gore of it, but not the consequences. Her Gregor books don't make much sense as anything but war stories, and it is the war that gets all the resolution in the final book, not the characters who are left. I will be pretty disappointed if Mockingjay ends similarly.
If she is writing some of her own conflicted experience of growing up in a military family all while dealing with the normal challenges that come at that stage of life, I can see why she would say they were war stories, while they might seem more like "finding yourself" stories to other people.
So why target US teens with the story? Because they're the Capitol, or living in it, and are just as ignorant of the personal effects of war. Schools are lucky to get to the beginnings of the Cold War in US History, and kids are left with what to learn about sticky topics like Vietnam or Korea? Forrest Gump? Even Ken Burns or Tom Brokaw have covered war with a gentler hand. At least, my grandma doesn't talk about WWII like they did.
3. I'm with Arabella on this one… I don't think Collins would give away such a huge spoiler. I'm hoping Katniss will die in the sense that the scared all the time, afraid of ever having a family or being in love version of Katniss will die, and that she'll be "reborn" with a little more security or safety in her life. Maybe that's too optimistic?
4. How did they miss you for the 13 District Blog Tour? 🙂 Although somehow I can't see Hogwarts Professor giving away glow in the dark Mockingjay stickers.
Given Collins' well-traveled past (particularly as a youngster) and her penchant for subtle statements on pervasive cultural realities (e.g., the power of the media to shape reality), is it possible that her failure to comment on the rest of the planet is much more than mere happenstance? By focusing all our attention on Panem (an unknown portion of North America which many readers assume to be only the USA), is she purposely drawing attention to our inherently flawed and largely insular view of the world?
Might there be much larger forces at play here?
What if, for example, Panem was *not* the only land mass remaining. What if other survivors, perhaps MANY survivors, remain on other continents? What if other parts of the planet were largely unaffected by "disasters, the droughts, the storms, the fires, the encroaching seas that swallowed up so much of the land, the brutal war for what little sustenance remained" (p. 18, THG)?
What if the aforementioned disasters were merely a STORY told by the Capitol powers-that-be to pacify their enslaved masses. Such a narrative would ensure that district citizens believe Panem IS the world (not merely a part of it), that there is no hope for rescue, and that there is therefore no point in attempt to make contact with others (including any who might still be in D13 as well as those outside Panem entirely).
If there are other pockets (or even substantial numbers) of human beings on planet Earth beyond the Capitol and its 12 Districts, why have they failed to intervene? Could some larger force be controlling both the Capitol *and* those on other continents? Is it possible that this alleged "larger force" is the REAL ENEMY imposing its will on the Capitol?. Might Snow's comment regarding the fragility of the "system" point to such a possibility? Could communication with those outside Panem present some sort of danger?
If the "larger force" (just reaching here, but hey – it's all speculation until the 24th) were some sort of alien entity, for example, perhaps they control the actions of the Capitol and in return, allow (most) of the District citizenry to live. It could be some crazy genetic engineering scheme whereby they (the larger force) use the HG to identify (control? eliminate? covertly reproduce in test labs?) the most resilient of the race?
THG as "first and foremost a war story" would make sense if there were indeed some sort of ongoing meta-war with this larger force, as the first two books offer little beyond the Hunger Games themselves (which claim – what – 23 lives per year?) that speak directly to the horrific consequences of war.
2) It seems likely that Collins' response to the interviewer's leading question about the possibility of dialogue putting an eventual end to war little more a head nod. Is it desirable? Sure. Is it possible? Maybe. Is it likely? No, not really. To deny that dialogue could be beneficial isn't a workable response nor is a sweeping generalization that it will indeed one day lead to the eradication of war. It seems doubtful that Collins' believes her series will save mankind by eradicating war. It seems more likely that her intent is to provide a vehicle that stimulates honest discussion with youngsters earlier and in more depth than is typical for our culture. Perhaps mirroring her own experience with early exposure to the complexities and realities of war.
3) This one was a shocker for me. I don't know if it's reasonable to take her at her literal word on this one or not. She did specifically note that both that Katniss' character arc mirrors that of Spartacus AND that Spartacus' eventually paid with his life for his part in the Third Servile War. Perhaps the answer to this is exactly as it seems: Katniss will pay for her part in the rebellion in the same way Spartacus did – with her life. Maybe the larger message is that sometimes major change can only be spurred by major sacrifice.
4) Katniss as the mockingjay seems almost a matter-of-course. I was puzzled by her statement that people had not generally made that connection (at least that's the way I interpreted it – I didn't re-read it since the day it was released). Perhaps readers/fans spoke less overtly of this because it *does* seem so obvious.
1) I've wondered about this too, STS, and it was heavily on my mind in my third rereading. You make some really interesting speculations. I've read too much dystopian fiction to think that Panem is all there is, or that the rest of the world is in as bad, or worse, shape. Panem apparently encompasses what's left (or what we're told is left) of North America. But I think there's may be some narrative misdirection about the planet as a whole. Snow is clearly afaid of something, and I don't perceive it as fear of losing personal or political power. There's some kind of delicate balance that, if damaged, has vast consequences both for Panem and possibly beyond Panem.
3) It's difficult to do a narrator dying. But if Katniss dies, an epilogue could be narrated by a survivor; it's not without precedent. Perhaps her "paying with her life" (she's already lost her life as she knows it) could be that she loses everyone she loves, their deaths (particularly Peeta's, given his fame and popularity) providing the inspiration for Panem to move beyond its limitations. Katniss has "died to self" in each book, like Harry Potter, and perhaps her "dying to self" (if not literal in Mockingjay), will be more harrowing and meaningful, to build a new Panem.
1) The question about the rest of the world is interesting. However, I think that if it were important to the story, there would have been at least some mention in the first two books. I think Collins is too good a writer to do otherwise.
Unless it's an oversight on Collins' part (and somehow I doubt that), the chocolate cake on p. 44 of THG as well as the hot chocolate served later on suggests trade with countries in the tropics and/or Africa is alive and well.
When I was reading this discussion and musing on the necessity of war, I was drawn back to a quote from Lord of the Rings: "The women of this country learned long ago, those without swords can still die upon them." – Eowyn.
War can only be irradicated if aggressors are completely eliminated from the world, and that will never happen. Panem is a nation that is in the midst of 75 years of peace. The message I get from the books is that THIS peace is an illusion. I learned somewhere that there are two types of peace. Negative peace is defined as the absence of war. Positive peace is defined as the presence of justice. Panem is in a state of negative peace: they are not at war with any neighboring states (if any exist), and the districts are not in active rebellion against the Capitol. But this state is a terrible, terrible place for the majority of its residents. A rebellion (war) must be fought to hopefully transition Panem to a state of *positive* peace, a state ruled by justice.
As for the Spartacus comparison, this stinks of red herring to me. It seems to me that SC is reminding the readers that this is the final act, and Katniss' survival is not guaranteed. To do so would increase the sense of relief if/when she ultimately survives.
2) I don't think Suzanne Collins is giving a soft, appeasing answer to the interviewer. I think she is indeed advocating for an end to war in the The Hunger Games books. However, she is also clearly identifying that injustice exists and people need to oppose it… but that nonviolence is always the ideal. I think her real goal is for us to truly consider the cost of violence as a means to eradicate injustice.
Consider Haymitch Abernathy. I believe his namesake is Ralph David Abernathy. Dr. Abernathy was best friend to MLK Jr. and a major organizer of nonviolent Civil Rights protest in the 50s and 60s. Haymitch's major advice to the new tributes is "Stay alive." and "You're not going to like what they do to you. But no matter what it is, don't resist." You would think a traditional mentor might coach them on who to kill first and useful weaponry, but Haymitch never goes there. His advice is to flee first and find food and water.
The connection between "The Hanging Tree" and "Strange Fruit" should also bring us to consider the connection to the Civil Rights Movement and various forms of nonviolent protest. Peeta's suggestion of a cease fire and Katniss's speech in District 2 are other examples of where SC is trying to lead us.
Ultimately, though, she is also driving at the idea of revolution. But the revolution she's suggesting, is first and foremost a spiritual one.

Le  est la partie du palais impérial japonais appelée dairi (内裏) où vivent la famille impériale et les dames de cour.

Beaucoup de femmes cultivées s'y réunissent en tant qu'épouses des empereurs, dames de la cour ainsi que les servantes de ces femmes ; des fonctionnaires de la cour se rendent souvent auprès d'elles pour bénéficier de leur influence, de leur charme littéraire ou pour des affaires amoureuses. D'importantes contributions à la littérature du Japon sont créées dans le kōkyū au cours de cette période : des œuvres telles que Le Dit du Genji de Murasaki Shikibu, les Notes de chevet de Sei Shōnagon et de nombreuses anthologies de poèmes waka y ont été composées.

Définitions confondues
Le terme daira ne désigne pas seulement les bâtiments dans lesquels la famille impériale japonaise réside ; il se réfère aussi indirectement aux femmes de la famille impériale (les kōkyū), à la cour impériale du Japon ou comme une façon indirecte (maintenant archaïque) de faire référence à l'empereur lui-même.

Les noms de plusieurs portes dans les murs entourant les terrains impériaux ne concernent pas seulement les ouvertures de mur spécifiques elles-mêmes ; ces noms sont également utilisés pour désigner indirectement une proche résidence d'une impératrice dont le mari a abdiqué, ou comme un moyen indirect de faire référence à l'impératrice douairière elle-même, par exemple, , dont la demeure officielle, après l'abdication et la mort de l'empereur Takakura, se trouve près de la porte Kenrei.

De la même façon, le terme kōkyū a de multiples significations, se référant à l'ensemble des bâtiments situés à proximité des appartements personnels du souverain où les époux ont résidé et décrivant aussi les fonctionnaires féminins du palais affectées au service de ces époux. Plus généralement, le terme kōkyū peut être utilisé pour identifier l'ensemble des consorts sous l'impératrice.

Structure

La structure de la maison royale et les rangs pour dames de la cour sont définis dans le code de Taihō et le code Yōrō. Dans ces codes, il doit y avoir à l'origine douze sections et les différents rangs pour dames de la maison impériale dans le kōkyū sont définis.

De subtiles distinctions sont réduites ou développées dans une réorganisation progressive qui se formalise au cours de l'époque de Heian. En 806 par exemple, l'empereur Heizei élève l'ancienne Fujiwara no Tarashiko (藤原帯子) (?-794), aussi connue sous le nom Taishi, en lui donnant le titre impérial de kōgō ou impératrice. Cela se produit douze ans après sa mort et c'est la première fois que ce rang posthume élevé est accordé.

Beaucoup des rangs de cour qui ne sont définis ni dans le code Taihō ni dans le code Yōrō ont été en usage continu dans les siècles qui ont suivi le début de l'époque de Heian.

Épouses impériales
 Épouses des empereurs :
 kōgō (皇后) (1 personne) : impératrice consort, aussi appelée kōkōgō (皇皇后) ;
 chūgū (中宮) (1 personne) : à l'origine, le mot signifie le palais où réside l'impératrice consort. Comme l'empereur Ichijō a deux impératrices consort, l'une d'elles est désignée par ce mot ;
 hi (妃) (2 personnes) : disparue depuis l'époque de Heian. Les princesses pouvaient y être nommées ;
 bunin (夫人) (3 personnes) : disparue depuis l'époque de Heian ;
 hin (嬪) (4 personnes) : disparue depuis l'époque de Heian ;
 nyōgo (女御) : non définies dans les codes. Les filles de ministre peuvent être nommées ;
 koui (更衣) : non définies dans les codes.

 Titres des autres femmes du cercle impérial :
 kōtaigō (皇太后) (1 personne) : impératrice Mère (y compris la belle-mère de l'empereur), l'impératrice douairière ou l'ex-impératrice consort ; aussi appelée kōtaikōgō (皇太皇后) ;
 tai-kōtaigō (太皇太后) (1 personne) : l'ancienne kōtaigō, aussi appelée tai-kōtaikōgō (太皇太皇后), la grand-mère de l'empereur ;
 ju-sangū/ju-sangō (准三宮/准三后) : kōgō, kōtaigō et tai-kōtaigō sont appelées sangū/sangō (三宮/三后). Ju-sangū/ju-sangō signifie quasi sangū/sangō. Les ju-sangū/ju-sangō obtiennent un traitement presque égal à celui des sangū/sangō. Non seulement les consorts et des princesses, mais des ministres ou des moines de haut rang deviennent également ju-sangū/ju-sangō ;
 nyoin/nyōin (女院) : les épouses des anciens empereurs ou les princesses peuvent recevoir le même traitement que les daijō tennō (in, 院).

Dames de cour
 Kōkyū jūni-shi (後宮十二司) :
 naishi-no-tsukasa (内侍司) s'occupe des cérémonies impériales et de la communication entre l'empereur et les fonctionnaires de la cour. Elles gardent également le Ummei-den (温明殿), appelé Naishi-dokoro (内侍所), où est sanctuarisé le miroir sacré (神鏡) ;
 naishi-no-kami (尚侍) (2 personnes) : chefs du Naishi-no-Tsukasa. D'ordinaire, des filles de ministres peuvent être nommées. Quelques-unes d'entre elles sont des concubines de l'empereur ou des épouses du prince héritier ;
 naishi-no-suke (典侍) (4 personnes) : habituellement des filles de dainagon et chūnagon peuvent être nommées. Certaines d'entre elles sont des concubines de l'empereur. Les nourrices des empereurs sont également nommées ;
 naishi-no-jō/naishi (掌侍/内侍) (4 personnes).

 Les onze sections suivantes ont été regroupées au cours de l'époque de Heian :
 kura-no-tsukasa (蔵司) s'occupe des trésors impériaux ;
 fumi-no-tsukasa (書司) s'occupe des outils d'écriture et des livres ;
 kusuri-no-tsukasa (薬司) s'occupe de la médecine ;
 tsuwamono-no-tsukasa (兵司) s'occupe des armes ;
 mikado-no-tsukasa (闈司) s'occupe de l'ouverture et de la fermeture des portes ;

Q: CAS Mode in Nspire Lua? I have another question here: Inspired Lua Program is Different on Computer and Calculator which answers this question. My attempt to mark as duplicate aged away.
I am writing a program for the Nspire CX CAS. I have a d2Editor mathbox that I would like to evaluate an expression I am giving it without using decimals. I would like it to simplify square roots and/or reduce fractions. How can this be accomplished?
I've spent around an hour looking through the wiki.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

A: Actually, no. I don't know if this is new but math.eval(expr) will evaluate expr as if you were running it from the tab calculator (Although still, if you have CAS disabled on your calculator, it will not be able to do use it)
math.eval('123+321=444') -> 'True'

A: Unless TI added new features recently, the answer is unfortunately that you will need to write it from scratch.
In a Lua program you do not have access to the representation that are used internally (say in a Notes workshop) to represent mathematical expressions.
You are handed, sigh, a string.
That means you will need to write your own parser for mathematical expressions in order to get a reasonable representation. Then you will need to write your own functions for manipulating and reducing expressions.
... no I am not kidding ...

Q: VHDL RS232 Receiver not working correctly with Xilinx ISE So i have this receiver code for the RS232 communication link, I'm supposed to send 8 bits with 1 start bit "0" and one stop bit "1", no parity check bit, I have tried with those code in most kinds of ways but the simulation never worked correctly, even though some people told me my problem is the testbench not the code but it never works on the FPGA implementation, the first signal i sent is always wrong where as any signal after that is correct.

A: Your question doesn't present a Minimal Complete and Verifiable Example. The problem cannot be duplicated without writing a testbench and your problem lacks specificity ('signal' and 'wrong' used here are imprecise).
There are some observations.
A stop bit followed by a start bit of a successive character leaves no room for state stRxdCompleted. Also iNoBitsReceived is not set to all '0's when iClock1xEnable goes invalid, meaning the sampling point is not determined by the falling edge of the start bit for successive characters:

This is a capital 'A' immediately followed by a lower case 'a', the stop bit immediately followed by the start bit of the second character (which is legal).
In the first character you see that the start bit is counted as one of the character bits.
You also see that the bit counter isn't reset when the enable goes invalid, which will cause sampling point drift (and may eventually cause sampling errors depending on clock differences or transmission distortion and lack of isosynchronous sampling point reset).
You also see presState is stStop during the last data bit of the first character and yet the second character is correct. Looking a bit closer we see the start bit of the first character occurs during stData and that doesn't occur for the second character.
There's a basic issue with number of states and state transitions when iClock1x is stopped.
You don't need the state machine, you have the counter named iNoBitsReceived that can store all the state should ishiftregister be long enough to accommodate start (and possibly stop) bits should you also detect framing errors.
Tying operations to specific counts without a separate state machine, along with clearing the bit counter when idle:

Gives us something that works with a bit less complexity:

end architecture;

VHDL basic identifiers are case insensitive, and the names weren't particularly enlightening. The format of the two above waveforms indicates name changes handily.
If you extend the shift register length by one or two you can detect framing errors during the stop bit. Changing the shift register length would require slicing the shift register output for writing to your data output.
Note this architecture is written to use package numeric_std and not Synopsys package std_logic_arith. You also didn't provide the context clause preceding the entity declaration.
This architecture also produces enables and uses the 16x clock instead of producing a 1x clock.
It was written after finding the amount of changes to correct issues in the original architecture seemed overwhelming. (When in doubt, start over.)

end architecture;

You can see that new architecture has all the same essential elements, although clocked process elements are in separate process statements.
There is no state machine process.
The architecture is extensible to a full feature UART receiver by playing around with separating inputs to the shift register (for parity, two stop bits, 7 data bits, etc.). Parity can be performed serially.

Kype Fishing
Fish Stocking 2019
Rising in the foothills of Dunside Rig, the Back Burn flows north-east for two and a half miles to empty into the southern end of Kype Reservoir. The Back Burn is met on the journey to Kype Reservoir by the Long Knowe Burn.
At approximately 890 feet above sea level, the Kype Reservoir is located 4 miles (6 km) southeast of Strathaven and 7½ miles (12 km) northwest of Douglas in South Lanarkshire. The Kype Reservoir is impounded by an earth embankment dam and covers an area of 13.6 ha (33 acres). It is the source of the Kype Water. It opened in 1898 for Hamilton Town Council and is now operated by Scottish Water for the supply of drinking-water.
It has a natural stock of native Brown Trout. Reaching the Kype Reservoir involves a final journey of two and a half miles, over old farm road, winding through fields of sheep and cattle. The Reservoir is surrounded by mature conifer woodland on two sides.
The Kype Water flows north, then north-east, from Kype Reservoir, before joining the Avon Water a mile south-east of Strathaven, having completed a course of roughly six miles.
The Avon Water flows into the River Clyde.

Orlando City Wins 3-1 in Friendly Against KR Reykjavik
Leyton Blackwell
ORLANDO, Fla. (FNN SPORTS) – Orlando City SC's friendly match against KR Reykjavik at Exploria Stadium Tuesday proved one thing: Orlando is capable and ready to rumble on a global scale. Orlando City defeated the 27-time (and current) champion of Iceland's top league.
(Florida National News Photo / Willie David)
Within the first two minutes, Orlando made their first goal with Joao Moutinho's assist to Nani from the left flank. Reykjavik appeared to be struggling in the game, because Orlando City scored another in the eighth minute courtesy of Benji Michel's one-on-one shot.
The score remained 2-0 until the 23rd minute, at which point KR Reykjavik made their first goal, bringing the score to 2-1. The tables turned on Reykjavik close to halftime, courtesy of an own goal in the 42nd minute, giving Orlando City another goal to bring the score to 3-1.
Neither team scored for the rest of the game, sealing Orlando's win.
"The purpose is to learn and grow together and we're trying to get the most out of the club-friendly games," said Orlando City Head Coach Oscar Pareja during the postgame press conference. "There is a lot of work, but we are headed in a good direction for next week's competition against [Real] Salt Lake."
Orlando City will have a closed rematch against Reykjavik Friday, February 21, followed by their season opener against Real Salt Lake, Saturday, February 29, both at Exploria Stadium.

Gaetz friend gets 11 years for sex crime, other counts
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — A former Florida tax collector whose arrest led to a federal probe into U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz has been sentenced to 11 years in prison for sex trafficking of a minor and other crimes.
Joel Greenberg, former tax collector for Seminole County, had pleaded guilty to six federal crimes, also including identity theft, stalking, wire fraud and conspiracy to bribe a public official. Prosecutors said he paid at least one girl to have sex with him and other men.
"Nothing justifies my actions. My conduct is so shameful. I feel remorse for what I've done," Greenberg said in court Thursday.
Greenberg's attorney had asked U.S. District Judge Gregory Presnell for leniency, saying that his client had assisted in investigations of 24 people, including eight for sex crimes. Defense attorney Fritz Scheller said that Greenberg's cooperation has led to four federal indictments, and that he believed additional ones were expected in the coming month.
Greenberg's cooperation could play a role in an investigation into his friend Gaetz over whether he paid a 17-year-old girl for sex. Gaetz has denied the allegations and previously said they were part of an extortion plot. No charges have been brought against the Republican congressman, who represents a large part of the Florida Panhandle.
Federal prosecutors had asked for a significant reduction in Greenberg's prison sentence, agreeing during a court hearing on Wednesday to a reduced range of nine years and three months to 11 years. Presnell ended up imposing the upper limit of that range.
The minor in the sex crimes case was almost an adult and had advertised as being over age 18 in her escort profile on the website "Seeking Arrangements," which facilitates "sugar daddy" relationships, Scheller wrote in court papers.
The defense attorney also said that Greenberg "has provided significant substantial assistance to the government in the areas of public corruption, election fraud, wire fraud, and sex trafficking."
Scheller also had asked the judge to take into consideration Greenberg's struggles with mental illness, starting with an attention deficit disorder diagnosis at age 7 and panic attacks, depressive and anxiety disorders as an adult. At the time he committed the crimes, he had bipolar disorder with symptoms of mania, which affected his judgment and impulse control, Scheller said.
Greenberg has been linked to other Florida politicians and their associates. So far, none has been implicated in the sex trafficking investigation.
Some documents related to Greenberg's cooperation were filed under seal and out of the public eye, with prosecutors and the defense attorney saying they were part of ongoing investigations being conducted by federal authorities in Florida and Washington, as well as state investigators.
Mister Rogers' Week of Kindness Coming March 2023
WINTER PARK, Fla. (Florida National News) – Mister Rogers' Week of Kindness, inspired by the children's TV host and icon, comes to Orlando in March 2023. This week-long series of events was announced today at the Edyth Bush Charitable Foundation in Winter Park.
"Fred McFeely Rogers devoted his entire life to reminding us of some of the most important ideas of what it means to be human among humans: love, respect and kindness," explained Buena Vista Events & Management President & CEO Rich Bradley. "Many of us find that nearly 20 years after Fred's passing, it is important to focus on his teachings once again, perhaps now more than ever. This is a week to re-engage with his massive body of work with some folks, and to introduce his teachings to others."
Mister Rogers' Week of Kindness begins March 20, 2023, the date which would have been Fred's 95th birthday, and concludes on Saturday, March 26 with the Red Sweater Soiree, a community dinner to recognize ten ordinary members of the community who inspire and exemplify the affinity that Fred Rogers had for showing kindness to our "Neighbors".

Activities planned for the week will include early childhood education activities and faculty training, as well as events open to the public.
"The events will be offered free or at low cost," continued Bradley. "This week-long celebration is not a series of fundraisers, but rather about once again remembering and sharing some of the great work that Fred Rogers created, not only in early childhood education, but in reminding us that we are all part of one big 'neighborhood'. Fred taught us the importance of accepting our Neighbors just the way they are and engaging in kindness with our interactions. I can't think of another period in my lifetime where we needed to reflect on those messages again more than today."
"There are three ways to ultimate success," Fred Rogers was once quoted as saying. "The first way is to be kind. The second way is to be kind. The third way is to be kind. Imagine what our neighborhoods would be like if each of us offered, as a matter of course, just one kind word to another person."
Many of the activities of Mister Rogers' Week of Kindness will be attended by members of the cast and crew of Mister Rogers Neighborhood, which ran from 1968 – 1975, and again from 1979 – 2001. David Newell, known as "Mr. McFeely," the "Speedy Delivery" man, appeared at today's media conference via video, and looks forward to visiting Central Florida next March.
