Ivan Carter and Elephant Charges
A couple of days ago I watched an episode of Tracks Across Africa with Ivan Carter. The hunt was for female elephants in Zimbabwe (I live in Canada, and we ususally get these shows much later than when they originally aired in the US, so it may have been an older episode). In any event, as the hunt developed, Carter identified a female elephant to be taken, but rather than trying for a shot before she became aware of the hunters, he told the hunter they would come up behind her, follow her, and that at some point she would become aware of them, turn around, and charge. And then the hunter was to shoot her. And that's exactly how it played out. Very dramatic, and I'm sure an adreneline rush for the hunter.
I've seen (on video) Carter do this many times with elephant. Often these are mock charges, and I have no doubt he knows elephants well - I have his video with Boddington - but that's not the point. At times he does this even when he has no intention of shooting the elephant. When he is actually hunting, he seems to intentionally induce a charge, and then has the hunter take the shot - with him backing up of course.
My first question is, what are the ethics of inducing charges, mock or otherwise, for a camera? I've always thought my best shots were when the animal had no idea I was there - down and out without knowing what hit it. Does that make me old fashioned? In fact, I thought this was actually illegal in some African countries?
If you compare how Carter hunts elephant to how someone like Buzz Charlton hunts elephant (and I'm only going by their videos here), there's a big difference.
My fsecond question is this: how is this different from what Mark Sullivan does (or did) in his videos?
Just asking.

Have never hunted anything bigger than a red deer however in my own "hunting ethics" I find it rather disgusting and indeed "TV" the best hunting and indeed culling I have ever done is where the animal was never even aware I was there - I have seen some of these USA hunting videos and in my mind and indeed as a personal opinion - I do not like them !Member of NRA Life Membe,Icelandic Hunting Club SKOTVIS , BASC (UK) Countryside Alliance (UK)

If it is solely for the camera, I am not defending the behavior. However, there is no ethical shot on an elephant moving away from you.
I have seen in a video of him, taking elephant with clients, where the elephant was not aware of their presence. It seems he prefers frontal brain shots, from about 10 yards or closer sometimes, and it seems difficult to do that all the time with the elephants never aware.
He does say even with the elephant aware of their presence, a correctly placed brain shot ends it before the elephant hears the shot.
I have not seen Buzz's videos so I can not compare them.

Anything on TV or Video is subject to editing and exaggeration. Some people take it as gospel, however at the end of the day its just entertainment.Time spent in Reconnaisance is never wasted.

I have never seen him induce a charge on any of his videos - I think I have them all. He does believe in the brain shot. One of his techniques is to walk up behind an elephant and have his hunter take a frontal brain when the elephant turns around. He gets closer than most of his peers, which would concern me a tad if I were one of his clients (several respected friends, who are PHs, think he is nuts). But I have never felt he was creating a charge for the camera."We sleep peaceably in our beds because rough men stand ready in the

The other school of thought on this is that it is more ethical in the fact that you allow your quarry to know that you are there and hunting it and it actually knows it is in the game. It then has the chance to play a card whether it is fight or flight.
I am not decided either way but thought i would play devils advocate!Overkill is underrated...

Let me start by saying this. The majority of todays hunting shows are garbage. It is no different then watching a "reality" show. There is nothing real about it. You have a producer and you have people doing scripted things. The camera in front of the hunter getting ready to shoot, the camera next to the animal on the ground, and we get a REALLY fake supprise when he finds his animal in the woods. It is all garbage to me. I only truly like over the shoulder hunts. It makes the video more enjoyable. Now this leads me to Mr Cartrer. If this is his perticular way to hunt ele, who am I to judge? I do not care it he wants to go slap the ele on the ass before he shoots it. If that is what he chooses to do, so be it. To me as long as the shot is clean, I am ok with it. I have seen some video where the ele knows they are there and ones where they do not. Does this mean you can not grunt at a deer to stop it just so you can shoot? It knows you are there, it is aware of your presance. What is the difference between that and stalking up to an animal and shooting it once the best opratunity has presented itself. I have been following Mr Carter for years now. He is the last person I would suspect of doing something un-ethical. Just my 2 pennys."Ignorance is curable, stupid is forever."

To compare Ivan Carter and Mark Sullivan is crazy. In what I have seen of IC, I have never seen him doing anything unethical and I would say that he is one of the most imprtant spokesperson for hunting in general in the world. After what I have read in reports Buzz Charlton also likes the frontal brain shot as do IC. I think that`s because you get close range and therefore have a good chance of getting the elephant brained in one shot. If I could choose 2 people to go after elephant. Buzz and Ivan would be in there on league. I would not think about for a second going with any of them. If I wanted to se Mark Sullivan shoot a buffalo in the ass for me then kill it for my trophy money I would choose him. The latter will never happen
I do think there are some bad habits by some people in the industry.
Ivan and Buzz is in my honest opinion the best in the businessHunted Norway and South Africa, so many places left:)

If the client is okay with it (and I suspect that they LIKE the idea of shooting a charging elephant) then I can't see anything wrong at all about it. Since when is it some hunting code that the animal isn't supposed to know the hunter is there?

I believe there is a moral difference between making an animal intentionally suffer and making an animal aware of your presence before you shoot, particularly with animals that are inclined to attack rather than run. It the shot is well placed and results in an instant kill I can not fault the shooter. Having never hunted elephant, I am not sure of kill zones, but from what I've read, frontal brain shots are one of the few methods to bring one down without suffering.Overkill is underestimated!

I'm pretty critical in how most hunting shows are presented, very critical to be honest. Mr. Carter's two shows are the only ones worth watching for many reasons, not the least of which includes his ethics and love of wildlife.
Shooting a frontal brain shot on an elephant is humane, quick, and challenging, I wish I had the resources and guts to do it. But, then again, I guess, if I understand your point of view, it is more sporting to stand off at 100 yards, shoot the elephant with a heart/lung shot so the animal can run a half of a mile while choking on its blood as its blood pressure drops to zero.
And I don't know that I've ever seen an elephant charge induced by Mr. Carter for the sake of exciting video footage. Please reference the episode(s) you are referring to and I'll see if I can find them and see what you are concerns are.

I don't know Mr. Carter personally, nor have I hunted with him. However, from what I know and from the research I have done, I must say I am very impressed with him and his technique. Personally, I believe he is legit and I respect his passion and expertise.
Deep-down I think Ivan Carter is a good man and an amazing PH!!

I don't go to the BIG SHOWs, but if I did. I would walk up to Ivan and tell him I enjoy watching his hunts, they bring a lot pleasure to my otherwise dull day.

Sentinel node biopsy is a surgical procedure used to determine if cancer has spread beyond a primary tumor into your lymphatic system. Sentinel node biopsy is used most commonly in evaluating breast cancer and melanoma.
The sentinel nodes are the first few lymph nodes into which a tumor drains. Sentinel node biopsy involves injecting a tracer material that helps the surgeon locate the sentinel nodes during surgery. The sentinel nodes are removed and analyzed in a laboratory. If the sentinel nodes are free of cancer, then cancer isn't likely to have spread and removing additional lymph nodes is unnecessary.
If, after sentinel node biopsy, evaluation of the sentinel nodes reveals cancer, then you'll likely need additional lymph nodes removed for your doctor to determine how far the cancer has spread.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Runners3 Great Customer Service The customer service was beyond my expectations; from check-in to our departure. We were always greeted with a "good morning, have a good day" from the cleaning staff! Lots of friendly smiles. Really enjoyed the outside firepits after our long day! I have read some other reviews about the hotel being noisy...this hotel was so quiet, slept so peaceful and we were right upstairs from the front entrance. Thank you for such an enjoyable experience! 10. April 2014

Rated 5 out of 5 by Punkin03 BEST hotel in the Fisherman's Wharf area! In our opinion, The Sheraton Fisherman's Wharf was the best spot for us to stay while in San Francisco. We were in the city for a week, tried three different hotels and voted that the Sheraton was our favorite for many aspects. It even has a grocery store across the street and an IHOP across the other street for a fast breakfast. The brunch at the hotel, however, is reasonably priced and delicious. When we go back to S.F., we would stay the Whole vacation there! The three block walk to Fisherman's wharf was perfect to work off the breakfast. 31. März 2014

Is there any reason you're not side venting it?
I'd be surprised if Paloma didn't have a termination cap to deal with concentric vertically vented installations, but if you ran the intake & exhausts separately you can use an inverted U the top to prevent rain penetration. See page 8. A U at the top of the termination kit you bought may have issues with exhaust mixing with the intake- don't do it unless you find it in the fine-print, but a simpler rain-cap might be OK.
If you're replacing a 50 gallon tank you'll almost certainly have to upgrade the gas plumbing to a bigger diameter for the 199KBTU/hr burner. Don't be fooled by the 3/4" gas hookup.
With 3/4" gas piping the tankless has to be within 20' of plumbing from the gas regulator, and that's counting ever ell as 2.06' and every tee as 4.12'.
With 1" you can push that to ~60', counting ells at 2.6' and tees at 5.12'.
Most big-burner tankless heater installations will need 1-1/4" to work (as in work well), 1-1/2" or more if there are any other loads teed along the path (either before or after the tankless.)
You may be better off calling in a pro to install it- somebody who has the tools knowledge and experience for debugging it. It's more expensive to pay somebody to rip it out and start over than to get a good plan of attack ahead of time. You may be able to find somebody willing to give on-site guidance, tell you what you need and let you do the work, but they should also inspect it before you turn the gas valve and throw the power switch This burner is about 4-6x the burner of a tank heater, and bigger than that on most home-heating boilers & furnaces, and being a modulating burner it's more sensitive to the supply line pressure (and pressure spikes/drops) than dumb 80% bang-bang on/off furnace burners. The fuel pressure drops are best measured under a variety of conditions and combustion efficiency tested as part of any real commissioning of the unit. There are a thousand ways that it can kinda-work or be almost-right and still bite you in the end. (In some states DIYers aren't even allowed to do their own gas line plumbing- not sure what the status is in FL.)

The CCC. An awards show comeback worthy of an award.
September 12, 2008
CCC winners, including Best in Show.
After much controversy, criticism and concern, the Chicago Creative Club awards was resurrected last night in the United Club at Soldier Field. While it was by no means a flawless affair, it was a far sight better than the debacle some 15 months ago. Without going into it, the previous show had degraded into a one-sided and ugly contest right before many of our eyes. Participants left drunk and/or dismayed and certainly disenchanted. We woke up to beastly reviews from the local press. Most felt the show had been ruined beyond repair.
We pointed fingers at one another, pissed and moaned about Chicago's deteriorated creative community, and then, well, went back to our business. There were ads to make. Websites to build. Pitches to win.
Something happened, however, on the way to the funeral. A small group of decent creative persons decided not to let the thing die. Chief among them the Chief Creative Officer of Two by Four, David Stevenson. He came to consultant, Ann Brown's side when few others would and set up to rebuild our beleaguered award show into something we could all be proud of. Others scoffed. Many more were indifferent. But the coalition of the willing grew. By the time I was asked to help it was "on" again, even if many big questions remained.
We decided to use preeminent local judges, not flown in "stars" from other agencies. The idea here was simple. We made the mess. We had to fix it. Fostering real community was critical. Having a judge from every participating agency meant that participation was certain. Beyond our ads, we now all had skin in the game, literally.
And so, on a Saturday in August two dozen of Chicago's best creative talents convened at Euro RSCG and made their selections from a previously culled shortlist. My creative partner and ECD of Euro RSCG, Blake Ebel was among them. His quote, caught on camera, summed it up. "This is pretty awesome, guys, all of us together, judging each other's work."
Indeed, a jury of our peers. Then and there, Chicago's creative community was reborn. And from what I could tell, that corp d'esprit carried right over into the show. The best pieces won and, more importantly, we were able to congratulate each other for doing them. Gone was the rude peanut gallery and with it, the copious amounts of Schadenfreud that polluted shows previous. In addition to good ads and good people, the much-maligned venue (too far, no cabs, etc) shined for us that night. After the ceremony, cocktails and light dinner were had out of doors beneath the mighty pillars of Soldier Field. We were even graced by a late evening fireworks show, probably courtesy of some rich couple's wedding at the Yacht club nearby!
But for me the highpoint came at the end of the awards presentation. Best of show had been given to BBDO, for its ripping Canadian Club campaign: "Damn Right Your Dad Drank It." Everyone cheered. And cheered. And cheered some more. A deserving campaign, but the applause was bigger. It felt like the biggest winner of all was… us.
A final note: Beware smugness. The CCC may be out of the weeds but hardly in safe harbor. More improvement is necessary. While turnout was a pleasant surprise, there should have been more people, especially newcomers and students. Somehow, ticket prices will have to come down. And where was Cramer Krasselt? As a leading creative agency in town, their seeming boycott was a blot.
A complete list of winners was not available as of this writing. Please check the CCC website for updates. The awards show book comes out this Fall.

text: Our shower started leaking (hot water) when shut off about a month ago, and has streadily gotten worse. Just recently, the water flow suddenly got so low when turned on that the shower is unuseable. Since we have hard water, I assume this means replacing the inner parts of the valve (at best). This valve was installed by a plumber about 7 years ago. The cover plate says Kohler, but this doesn't look like the pictures I can find or the repair videos on YouTube. The flange behind the stem seems to be attached to what may be a screw cap on the valve body, but I put a wrench on it and it did not turn easily. Since the valve is only secured by the copper feed and output lines, I didn't feel comfortable putting any significant torque on the "cap." Since there is no shutoff valve except for the whole house shutoff, and we have 7 people in the house, I thought it best to ask questions beforeng exploratory sugery by removing the two screws visible at 3 & 9 o'clock at the base of what I think is the cartridge housing. Any help in identifying the valve and/or advise on the best way to proceed would be appreciated.

"Not great"
I bought a box and was quite disappointed. I much prefer the Cohiba Pequenos if your looking for a smaller cigar with a great taste. The construction was fine but the taste was quite harsh and didn't live up to the brand name. It doesn't come close to some of the other Patel Cigars.Sam in New york January 30, 2013
"Some People....."
The first time I got these, I got them free with a box of Vintage RP's. I didn't like them at first and let them sit in my humidor for about 4-6 weeks. Then I broke out another and was very surprised at how tasty they were. For those who want a smoke now, these aren't for you. For those who know they should age any smoke, these will be a good choice. I haven't had a RP cigar yet that wasn't better a few weeks down the road. Exact same thing with the Rosado's. Didn't care for them until they sat in the humidor for a few weeks. That is precisely why I stay ahead on stock, so they can age. I'll be ordering more of these soon. Nothing is a perfect "10". But these are very tasty.Joe in Ludington, MI January 17, 2013

I bought a few of these from Famous when I first got into cigars. They were great when I started to smoke and they are great now after experiencing some classic smokes. They last about 30 minutes (great for lunch breaks or winter when its too cold)and are really full of flavor...even for being small! The smooth cream from the Connecticut wrapper really shines. Plus, they look great! Let them sit in your humidor to pick up some cedar. You wont regret these shorts!Honest Cigar Reviews in Michigan June 18, 2011
"Not bad for the price but not great either!"
Pick up some of these badboys and they're ok. Considering the price they're passable but the flavour is a bit barnyardy. Almost tastes like manure smells but thats just my opinion.Todd in Ottawa March 30, 2011
"Why the good reviews?"
I thankfully picked up a box at a discount through Cigar Monster. I don't understand the reviews. They burn well at a good price with good construction but......the flavour is terrible!!! I've had 3 of the 50 and i don't think i can smoke another. They are so harsh that they render themselves un-smokeable. The people that have reviewed these juniors as a good smoke must never have had a decent cigar. Never mind a good one! I was simply looking for a short stogie with good flavour but that isn't found here.Paul in Canada March 16, 2011
Wonderfully surprising! Medium to hard draw especially after relight cold. Good Smooth Flavor, not spicy.Pegasus7 in Oklahoma City March 7, 2011
"Good Little Smoke"
Got a bundle of 20 of these with a purchase of a box of Cuban Blend. Smoked the first one tonight, and I have to say, it's a nice little smoke. I'm normally not a fan of the smaller cigars, due to them smoking hot. But this one had some flavor to it. Wouldn't have tried this unless FSS threw them in for free, but I'm glad they did. Will buy these again for times when I don't have 1.5 hours to sit outside and smoke.Dizzy in New Mexico February 24, 2011
"Good Cigar RP does it once again"
Good smoke the taste is not for everyone one of my fave way to go Rocky!Douglas Brown in Murfreesboro TN. February 5, 2011
Wonderful cigars. Great taste and construction, but just one problem with them. They are so good for a junior cigar, you'll wish it was full size.Jon in Lexington KY January 27, 2011
"Rocky Patel had done it again! Juniors RULE!"
I don't use all the fancy wording to describe my tastes in cigars but I know what I like. My usual smoke is Rocky Patel's The Edge Missile but they can be a bit pricey for a day to day smoke and I was looking for a small yet flavorful stick. I tried the Rocky Patel Junior in April and never looked back. Though all 3 wrappers are good, the Connecticut is my favorite and being that the fields are 20 minutes from my home well I am supporting the locals. This little cigar is surpassed by none anywhere in its price range. The draw is perfect, the burn, also perfect and the flavor works right down to the lip burning end! Out of 6 boxes so far (40 per box), only one stick malfunctioned a slight unwrapping of the wrapper and that may have been because I left it in my car overnight. I give them a 96 out of 100!Dan in Middletown CT December 13, 2010

Hanley Ramirez return to Florida Marlins this year looking doubtful after another setbackby Joe Capozzi
Hanley Ramirez's attempt to return this year hit another bump tonight when he took himself out of a rehab game with Class A Jupiter.
Ramirez hasn't played since Aug. 2 when he suffered a left shoulder sprain.
"I guess he felt it and it didn't feel right in the fourth inning and he took himself out. He's going to the doctor in Miami,'' baseball operations president Larry Beinfest said tonight after Florida's 6-0 win over the Mets.
Earlier in the day, the Marlins were hopeful that Ramirez could join them Thursday or Friday.

You've got to love Jessica Simpson's resilience. A few days after she and Tony Romo, her boyfriend of two years, broke up—he reportedly did it the night before her twenty-ninth birthday—she sent a Twitter message to her fans: "Everyone needs to know that hope floats…. Grab the strings and pull it back to you," she wrote. Later that day, she sent another Tweet: "Falling asleep with my mom and the dogs. Please, Lord, give all of my beautiful fans, friends, enemies and family rest. Bring all of us peace."
These aren't the words of a woman on the verge—in fact, she sounds forgiving, reflective, mature. When we interviewed Simpson, right before her breakup with Romo, she was candid about how happy she was to have Romo in her life, but she also spoke with the caution of a woman who knows that love can go bad. We asked her what was different about this relationship than others she'd had, and she said, "I don't regret anything I've gone through. All of them have defined me as a person. If anything, I believe they were preparing me for the one I'm going to spend the rest of my life with." Asked if that might be Romo, Simpson said, "I don't know what the future holds, but I hope that my life, as it is now, doesn't change. I'm very happy and comfortable—it's a great place to be in. If this article comes out and we're not together, I'd still love him, and he'd still be a huge part of who I am today."
Who is that woman? Quite simply, a powerhouse. She's on a plane twice a week to promote her country album, Do You Know; her new project, a reality show about the extremes women will go to in order to feel beautiful—a subject close to the singer's heart—has been given the green light by VH1. And then there's her hugely successful fashion line, the Jessica Simpson Collection. While other celebrities have found that the toe dip into the fashion world can be a tough one to survive, Simpson has spent the past four years becoming a bona fide fashion force; according to company sources, the business is projected to earn around $450 million by the end of this year. (That's on par with major fashion labels like DKNY.) The collection has been doing so well that this month Simpson's adding a luggage line, offering "every single thing you can think of that has to do with travel," she says. Read on to see where Simpson's head and heart are. (And while you're at it, send her an encouraging Tweet!)

Ten Realistic Ways to Overcome a Food Crisis
Tue Oct 02, 2012 12:24 pmForum Host
This year in the U.S., corn and soybean crops were deeply affected by serious drought. Many popular processed foods are based on corn and soy. But, those two products and other grains are also the foundation of commercial livestock feeds.
Within weeks of the drought, a domino-effect had already begun, with meat and poultry operations downsizing and even shutting down in anticipation of unbearable feed price hikes. The pork industry has already made the news.
According to a United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) report, "Animal-based perishable foods will be hardest hit. The USDA projects that poultry products will rise 3 to 4 percent next year, compared to this year's average. The biggest rises are seen in beef and veal, rising 4 to 5 percent from 2012 average Dairy products will take a hit too, rising up to 4.5 percent.
In the coming months, availability and prices of many grain products, vegetables, and fruits will also be affected. The ultimate results of the strain on supply and distribution channels remains to be seen.
If you've been postponing starting or stepping up your own food production or storage, now is a good time to move it to the top of your "to-do" list.
How you can minimize the effect on your own family
Here are some ways you can prepare to weather rising food prices and potential shortages—starting right now.
1. Grow some vegetables, herbs, and fruit.
Anyone can grow something to eat. Even if your soil is awful, you can grow some food. And if you don't know how, you can learn!
You don't even have to wait till next spring to plant a garden or planter. No matter where you live—cold or warm climate, urban or rural setting, huge farm or small apartment—you can probably grow something green during the fall and winter.
If you're new to gardening, ask a neighbor or your local extension office what can be grown in your area. Here in our four-season climate, we have been planting salad greens, root crops, and herbs for harvest throughout the fall and winter.
For successful winter harvests, plants should be mature by the time of the first frosts. Root crops can be mulched in place in the garden; other crops should be grown in hoop houses or cold frames for frost protection.
Check and see what you can still do this fall. In a warm-winter area, many different veggies can be grown. Where winters are cold, you can probably at least still plant mâche/corn salad and claytonia/miners' lettuce.
In most climates, garlic is best planted in the fall to get established over the winter. Buy seed garlic for your first planting; in subsequent years you can plant your own garlic cloves.
Autumn is also a good time to plant fruit trees and berry bushes, to till and amend next year's garden plot, build raised beds for spring planting, or set up a seed starting system for winter use.
Winter steps and preps:
■Request seed catalogs for winter browsing and seed orders so you'll be ready for spring planting. Some good ones are Seeds of Change, Seed Savers Exchange, and Baker Creek Seeds.
■Learn all you can about gardening in general. Chat with your local extension or agricultural agents, pick the brains of friends and neighbors with admirable gardens, visit local nurseries that remain open in winter, scour the library and Internet.
■Find out what's in your soil and what's lacking–get a sampling of soil tested at a local lab or a mail-in lab like U of Massachusetts Soils Lab.
■Figure out what you'll need in the way of growing beds, soil amendments, and irrigation. Be ready to buy supplies in late winter or early spring.
■Be adventuresome…try growing some veggies indoors in a hydroponic system!
2. Raise some eggs and meat.
From rabbits and chickens to beef and bison, there's probably a source of meat or eggs that you can raise in your own backyard or small farm. People even raise rabbits in garages and basements.
There's still time to build a small winter-friendly chicken coop or rabbit hutch and bring home some laying hens or rabbits before deep winter sets in. Check out your local farm guide or Craigslist for meat rabbits or pullets (young hens) ready to lay.
You can also start baby pullet chicks now and expect eggs about five months later. While most local feed stores do not have chicks available in fall, most mail order hatcheries ship chicks year-round or close to it. Most do require minimum orders of 25 chicks, so you might want to share an order with a friend. For ultimate sustainability, keep a rooster with your hens so you can hatch replacement chicks in an incubator or under a broody hen.
While usually raised outdoors during the summer, meat chickens can be grown out any time of year in a winter-safe coop. The chicks are usually available only from hatcheries at this time of year, as few individuals sell meat-breed chicks on a local level. However, locally you may find dual-purpose breed chicks, some of which grow out reasonably meaty. Another possibility is cull laying hens and roosters, which make awesome stewing birds that yield cooked meat and rich chicken stock. Raw chicken can be frozen or canned in a pressure canner.
Or you can get everything set up and ready to start a chicken flock in the spring. Chickens are fairly low maintenance, with few stringent requirements. They must have fresh water, nutritious feed, and sources of grit. Calcium is essential for laying hens. While mature chickens don't require heated coops in winter, shelter from wet and windy weather is important.
You can learn a lot about chickens and their care on many forums and blogs including Backyard Chickens, The Chicken Chick, and Fresh Eggs Daily.
Most people agree rabbits are as low-maintenance as–or even more so than–a flock of chickens. Rabbits mature quickly, multiply easily (just as the jokes imply), and have a great feed to weight conversion rate. Rabbit meat tastes similar to chicken and can be used in recipes designed for poultry. You can find some good rabbit raising info at Backyard Herds Rabbit Forum, Rudolph's Rabbit Ranch, and Whisper's Rabbitry (online sites).
3. Discover local sources of food products.
There are many reasons to buy local foods. Just-harvested locally grown foods are fresher than anything shipped in from elsewhere. When we shop locally our food dollars will stay in the local economy. And some products even have effective health benefits. Eating honey from bees that gather local pollens can help eradicate people's allergies to the plants themselves.
But now you have to consider that local foods also may be the only foods readily available or affordable if our food supply chain is affected by transportation issues or high costs.
Many regions have local farmers markets where you can get to know your local food providers. Some areas have helpful farm guides listing places to buy various fresh products. Your local extension office or agricultural agency should be able to give you info. Another good resource for the U.S. is the directory at Local Harvest.
Community Supported Agriculture
4. Start or add to a food storage program.
Even if you are planning to raise a lot of your own food, it's wise to have a stash in case a drought or other situation limits your food production. Also include products that you can't grow or make at home. Store foods you know your family will enjoy eating—don't forget seasonings for bland foods like rice and beans.
A storage program can include home canned and dehydrated foods as well as purchased groceries. Warehouse and restaurant supply stores often have great deals on large bags of grains, dry beans, sugar, salt, and other basics. You can buy multiple small packages and flats of canned goods when you find good deals at the local grocery store.
Store your foods at cool temps, but above freezing. Liquids can freeze during winter, causing cans and jars to explode. While a garage may be fine for storage in a mild climate, an indoor closet or storage room may be necessary for winter storage.
Where To Store Home-Canned Goods
While you're at it, don't forget to store water. We were glad to have gallons of our stored water when our well pump broke and when some pipes froze. For drinking and cooking, treatment with water purification tablets or bleach is recommended. Water for household use like toilet flushing and dishwashing need not be treated.
5. Preserve some fresh food to enjoy later.
You can stretch out your enjoyment of homegrown or locally grown fruits, vegetables, herbs, and meats throughout the year. Make the most of your own garden harvest, but look into other sources of fruits, vegetables, and herbs to preserve. Visit farmers' markets, local orchards, and farm stands to buy produce by the bag or box.
If you don't have preserving equipment and know-how, get some now! Learn how to can, freeze, and dehydrate.

Curing of Meats, Hams and Sausages
Make sure you understand food safety guidelines, avoiding botulism and other potential food poisoning by proper preservation. The major food safety rule is to use a pressure canner for all meats and almost all vegetables. A pressure canner is different from both a pressure cooker and a water bath canner.
Pressure Canner v. Pressure Cooker
Testing Pressure Canner Gauges
When we have questions about food preservation, we rely heavily on university and scientific research info including county extension publications. An excellent guide is the National Center for Home Food Preservation.
Snatch up canning and freezing supplies and containers. In the late summer and fall you might find them on sale in retail stores. Look for them year-round at thrift shops and yard sales–just beware of cracked or chipped jars, and have any used pressure canners checked by a food safety agent. Many local extension and ag agents can do this, often for free; only the pressure canner lid is needed for testing.
Here are some basic food preservation needs and helpful accessories:
■For canning of high acid foods (most fruit products): water bath canner
■For canning of low acid foods (anything containing meats or most vegetables and herbs): pressure canner (not a pressure cooker, which works differently) with accurate pressure gauge. It's wise to have a dial gauge checked annually for accuracy. Most county extension offices offer this service for free, especially during summer and fall peak canning times. Only the lid is needed for the test; leave the heavy pot at home.
■For all canning: jar rack, canning tongs, canning funnel, glass canning jars (no cracks or chips on rims), lids, rings
■For dehydrating: dehydrating unit (electric dehydrator, kitchen oven, outdoor solar oven/racks), storage containers
■For freezing: pot and strainer for blanching, storage containers, vacuum sealer to avoid freezer burn
6. Buy a supply of freezer meat.
Every fall and winter, local livestock farmers have meat to sell. This year, due to expected high feed costs, many are culling their herds even more than usual. While a large quantity of freezer meat is a substantial financial investment, the cost per pound for many cuts is much lower than grocery store prices.
Depending on your geographic area, you may find beef, pork, lamb, and goat meat available. Many farmers can sell meat by the whole or half carcass. Some local regulations allow for sales of quarter carcasses. If you're not up for such a large amount of meat, consider splitting an order with another family.
Food Preservation by Freezing & Freezer Organization
7. Sprout seeds and legumes.
A fairly simple way to grow nutritious greens is to sprout legumes, grains, and vegetable seeds right in your kitchen. Little is required in the way of equipment, space, or time. Sprouters can be purchased or made from canning jars or strainers. Sprouting seeds can be purchased online or at local health food stores. Unless they've been treated, food-grade legumes and grains from any source can usually be sprouted.
Sprouts can be added to salads, sandwiches, omelets, breads, and many other dishes and recipes. While sprouts are a delicious addition to human diets, they're also wonderful for livestock. Sprout a small batch now and then as a treat for your chickens. Large mats can also be grown for larger livestock.
To find out more about sprouting, visit the Sprout People, who can tell you everything you need to know!
8. Forage for edibles.
Most areas left to native growth contain a number of plants with edible parts. A stroll around our own farmstead reveals an assortment of wild edibles including lamb's quarters, purslane, dandelion, Oregon grape, elderberry, and wild rose hips.
Foraged Foods ~ Foods From The Wild
Once you are familiar with your own native plants and aware of which ones are toxic, you may find numerous types of salad greens and berries.
A great source of info on edible weeds is Weekly Weeder at Common Sense Homesteading.
9. Become a barterer.
The practice of bartering, common in days gone by, is coming back into vogue! The idea is that goods or services of equal value are swapped, with no money involved. Whether it's knowledge, skills, or tangible products, everyone has something that someone else can use.
Think about what you have to offer: skills, expertise, products, time. Put a value on it—either monetary or number of hours. Then consider what you need, find a good match, and make a trade.
Some areas have bartering groups, but it's usually fairly easy to make a bartering arrangement. When you want or need something, ask potential providers—friends, neighbors, farms, even other small businesses–if they'd be willing to make a trade. You might swap fresh eggs for fresh veggies, firewood for boxes of apples, sewing lessons for cast iron cookware.
10. Learn, learn, learn.
Don't know how to grow a garden, raise chickens, grind wheat, bake bread, make homemade soup? There's no reason you can't learn it now!
There's tons of info on the Internet and in books and magazines. Your local library may have what you need, or might even order a new book you request. Used bookstores, thrift shops, and yard sales are all good places to find books for your own library.

Text: A thorough Spanish-English/English-Spanish dictionary
for class. Recommended: The New World Spanish-English, English-Spanish
Dictionary. Ed. Salvatore Ramondino. Penguin, 1996. ISBN: 0451181689.
Found at amazon.com (from $2-$8)
Description and objectives:
To provide students with practical experience using the Spanish language while they work with designated internship agents; exposure to aspects of Hispanic culture will also be intended. Students will devote 6-8 weekly hours (2-3 afternoons each week) of service with the agencies in question. Students will be assigned an agent and will learn about the related professional area while also receiving practical experience with Spanish-speakers. Students will meet weekly for one hour on Fridays with Dr. Del Mastro, Internship Director, to discuss their experiences. Each Friday during class, students will also hand in their journals that will recount in Spanish their experiences working as interns. Internships must take place from 1300-1700, Mondays through Thursdays. Interns must arrange their schedules to ensure the necessary time is available each week (e.g., an intern can not schedule a 1300 class on internship afternoons), and they must arrange their own transportation to the agency location.
Course policies:
(1)Attendance and tardiness
Attending both the weekly class on campus and fulfilling the weekly required hours of the internship at the designated locations off campus are mandatory. Professor Lawn will monitor internship attendance and tardiness along with the internship agents' weekly reports and share this information with Dr. Del Mastro. Tardiness for class and/or internship appointments will negatively impact the intern's final grade. If the intern is faced with an urgent situation that precludes fulfilling their internship obligations for a particularly day, they must contact well in advance Dr. Del Mastro, Professor Lawn and the intern agent in question. Failure to do so will have a negative impact on the intern's final grade. A student leaving campus as authorized by the internship leave must ONLY be engaging in internship-related activities while away. If the student is unable to participate in the internship on the scheduled time and day, he/she must remain on campus during the internship-leave time.
(2) Internship performance
The internship agent will report weekly to Professor Lawn on the intern's overall performance, activities, percent of time Spanish was used and in what capacities (speaking, writing, translating projects, etc.), punctuality, and cooperativeness, among other pertinent performance factors. Professor Lawn in turn will share this information with Dr. Del Mastro. Students engaged in non-internship related activities during internship leave time will be held strictly accountable by the college's honor code and graded accordingly in this course.
(3) Journal
The intern will maintain a hand-written journal (black and white marble covered lab notebooks preferred) in Spanish that records in detail the student's internship activities and their reactions to the same. The journal will be submitted to Dr. Del Mastro weekly and for evaluation during Friday's class meeting, and generally the student will retrieve their graded journal from Dr. Del Mastro's office on Monday morning or at which time Dr. Del Mastro has confirmed the journals have been graded..
(4) Internship report
Each intern will submit a final report at the end of the semester. The report must be 8 pages minimum (including endnotes and bibliography), typed, double spaced with 1" margins all around, 12-point "Times Roman" font and in accordance with MLA style. Late reports will not be accepted and should be handed to Dr. Del Mastro by NOON on the due-date. A grade of 0 will be assigned to late or unsubmitted reports. Dr. Del Mastro will provide further details about this report and its topic as the semester progresses.
(5) Exit interview
Dr. Del Mastro and Professor Lawn will together conduct a graded exit interview in Spanish with each intern to assess the knowledge gained through the internship experience.

Grade Distribution
Please remember that as an intern you are an ambassador for The Citadel to the internship agent and agency in question. Your appropriate behavior and responsible performance, therefore, are critical for your success in this class, the reputation of the college and the viability of the program for future interns. Professors Del Mastro and Lawn will together determine all final grades in this course.
Si un estudiante se encuentra en circunstancias especiales y/o urgentes que evitan su asistencia a clase (especialmente un día de una prueba o presentación del mismo estudiante) y/o la práctica, o la entrega de un informe escrito, es la responsabilidad del mismo de avisar los dos profesores 24 horas antes o después del día en cuestión con una explicación. Los profesores se reservan el derecho de evaluar las circunstancias y las explicaciones del estudiante para determinar si el estudiante merece consideración especial y una exención de la política del curso.
Los profesores también se reservan el derecho de modificar cualquier aspecto del sílabo para mejor acomodar las necesidades intelectuales del estudiante. Durante la hora de clase, el Dr. Del Mastro también se reserva el derecho de despedir a cualquier estudiante cuyo comportamiento afecta negativamente el ambiente de la clase. El profesor anotará estas despedidas como una ausencia para el estudiante. Al matricularse en esta clase, el estudiante acepta la política escrita en este sílabo.

Adeptia believes that many market-leading vendors are in the process of modernizing and consolidating the technologies they offer to support integration projects. We believe that it is necessary for modern enterprises to deploy systematic application integration functionality that supports robust messaging, multiple B2B protocols, and cloud APIs.
To combat the potential erosion of their customer base, Adeptia urges vendors in the application integration market to make further and ongoing investments in their product and service offerings, and pay particular attention to their pricing and go-to-market strategies.
Learn why this Gartner research features details on why opportunities in the data integration tool market favor breadth of functionality in a well-integrated product set.

Movie Theater Flat Card
Comments about Movie Theater Flat Notecard:
These are very cute cards. They were perfect for the movie theater party we had. In setting up the card, I only wish we had been able to cut and paste the text from the sample card onto our card. We could not, so had to type it from scratch and the size of the font ended up being different on two of the lines.
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

The Pew Charitable Trusts is driven by the power of knowledge to solve today's most challenging problems. Pew applies a rigorous, analytical approach to improve public policy, inform the public and stimulate civic life.
Australia has some of the world's last great wilderness areas, with nearly a billion acres remaining largely unaltered by the expansion of industrial civilization. Around that core of wild lands, hundreds of millions more acres are healthy enough that they can still support the maintenance of resilient ecosystems.
In addition to its terrestrial treasures, Australia has some of the world's most intact marine areas. Its tropical waters include the Great Barrier Reef, one of the world's iconic marine systems. In addition, its southern temperate waters are highly biodiverse, with many species restricted to those seas. Australian marine areas include productive and diverse areas in both tropical and temperate seas that remain relatively undisturbed.
Australia's wilderness harbors an astonishing and exotic array of plant and animal species, many of which are endemic, existing only in that one place in the world. Indeed, Australia ranks first among all nations in total number of uniquely native mammal and reptile species, and among the top five countries in total numbers of endemic plants, birds and amphibians.
Although there are several ambitious biodiversity or wilderness conservation efforts underway in Australia, not nearly enough is being done. Pew has developed and supported the Australia program, which will be an ambitious, three-year effort to identify and protect large wilderness and marine areas of outstanding biodiversity significance in Australia.
