What is PBS listing?
How are medicines approved?
In Australia, all medicines must be approved for sale by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), a division of the Australian Government Department of Health. Manufacturers of prescription medicines will usually also apply for the medicine to be subsidised under the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS). If a medicine is subsidised under the PBS, the Government pays a portion of the cost.
These are two separate processes:
- TGA approval — If the TGA is satisfied that the medicine meets its standards for manufacturing quality, safety and effectiveness in treating a particular illness, it will approve it for sale in Australia. See TGA approval.
- PBS listing — If the Pharmaceutical Benefits Advisory Committee (PBAC) decides the medicine works as well or better than other medicines for treating a particular illness, it will recommend that it be subsidised on the PBS. In most cases, the Government will accept this recommendation.
PBS listing
If a medicine is subsidised under the PBS, you pay a lower price for the medicine, and the Government pays the rest. Once a prescription medicine has been approved and registered by the TGA, the manufacturer can apply for the cost to be subsidised under the PBS. See below for information about who is eligible for PBS-subsidised medicines.
Applications are evaluated by the Pharmaceutical Benefits Advisory Committee (PBAC) to determine if the medicine will provide a health benefit that is better than, or at least as good as, that provided by an existing medicine or with fewer side effects.
The PBAC also makes recommendations about whether a new vaccine should be included in the National Immunisation Program or PBS, after advice from The Australian Technical Advisory Group for Immunisation (ATAGI) on the effectiveness of the vaccine in the Australian population.
The other key consideration is that the medicine's price is acceptable to the Government. It is worth noting that there is no need for a new medicine to be better than existing medicines — it can be subsidised under the PBS if it is at least as effective as an existing medicine.
The PBS system is unique because the pharmaceutical company must prove their medicine is worth the price asked of the Government. If the pharmaceutical company cannot prove the new medicine is better than an existing treatment, the Government will only pay the same price as it does for the existing medicines. If the new medicine has uncertain benefit and a high cost, it is unlikely to be PBS listed.
PBS decisions are complex. For most new drugs, the Department of Health publishes a public summary document to explain the decision making about that drug. See a list of all medicines subsidised under the PBS.
Who is eligible for PBS-subsidised medicines?
PBS-subsidised medicines are available to all Australian residents who hold a current Medicare card. Some overseas visitors are also eligible. See PBS — brief overview for details.
Why does the PBS subsidise a medicine for some illnesses and not others?
The PBAC decides whether evidence from clinical trials for a medicine shows a health benefit for people with a particular illness. The PBS listing will be limited to illnesses and situations where a benefit has been proven. The PBAC also considers whether the proven benefits of the new treatment justify the proposed cost.
For example, a medicine may have good evidence that it improves survival in lung cancer, but very little evidence in kidney cancer. In this case, the PBS listing might only be for people with lung cancer.
In some cases, the PBAC may also recommend that the medicine is subsidised under the PBS only for certain groups of people if they feel wider use could be unsafe.
What is an 'authority' prescription?
Some medicines are more closely monitored to make sure they are prescribed only for specific illnesses in particular groups of people. For these 'authority' prescription medicines, the prescriber has to either phone Medicare for approval or to enter a special code on the prescription.
Authority prescriptions are also sometimes used if a higher dose of a medicine is required than is usual. With the authority prescription, you will only pay the same amount as someone on the standard dose.
Once your doctor has given you an authority prescription, you can give it to the pharmacist as you would any other prescription.
For more about authority prescriptions, see Authority prescriptions explained.
What will a medicine on the PBS cost me?
If a medicine is subsidised on the PBS for someone with your medical condition, you will pay up to $36.10 per prescription, or $5.90 if you have a concession card.
If you or your family need a lot of medicines and the amount you spend in a year reaches the threshold for the PBS Safety Net, you will be eligible for prescriptions at a reduced cost.
The PBS Safety Net entitles people to free or cheaper medicines if they spend more than a certain amount on PBS (prescription) medicines in a calendar year. If you were paying the general rate, your payments will be reduced to the concessional rate once you reach the Safety Net threshold. If you were paying the concessional rate, PBS medicines will be free for the rest of the year.
These thresholds apply to family units and are the same regardless of whether the unit consists of one person, a couple, or a family with dependent children.
The cost of subsidised medicines, and the Safety Net thresholds can change, but you can find the current amounts on the About the PBS page on the Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing website.
If a medicine is not on the PBS for your condition, you will have to pay the full price for it. This will usually be between $10 and $100 per prescription but, in some cases, it can cost hundreds of dollars. Part of the cost for medicines not on the PBS may be covered by some health funds.
If the cost of the medicine is a problem for you, ask your health professional if there are more affordable options. Read Keeping your medicine costs down for more tips.

It's that time of the year when we all take a look back at our year and take stock in what we have learned, what we accomplished, and what we look forward to in the coming year. It is also that time of the year that all the "Lists" come out and WordPress sends us bloggers our report card.
So lets start with that. The blog is doing very well and it is all because of you the reader/viewer. Now I don't claim to understand how blogs are rated and ranked, and I don't know where the Scoutmasterminute.net rates among the really big blogs out there. I guess deep down inside I wish the blog was massive and only because then the world would see our Scouting world in the light in which we want it to be seen. I surf around at some of the blogs out there that are truly about nothing and see that they have thousands of followers, get millions of hits, and have what I consider sub par content. Scouting blogs seem to not get the views it should.
Resolve this coming year to tell a friend about a Scouting blog. It doesn't have to be this one, but pick one. There are great Scouting blogs out there.
You can start with Bryan on Scouting. The official Blog of the BSA (Scouting Magazine). In typical well produced fashion the BSA has a nice product in this blog. I like that it is pretty interactive and does a nice job of telling Scouting's story.
Then you need to check out the blogs of my Scouting friends. Scouter Adam for the Cub Scout folks out there, mixes up his personal touch as well as telling a great Scouting story. A stop in at the Boy Scout Trial is a nice site for resources, stories, and fun stuff. No list of Scouting blogs could be complete without Clarke Green's Blog. That is a site that every Scouter should have bookmarked and visit often. Doug Metz has a nice blog out there also. I wish he would put more out there. He has a great story and I love to hear about his journey. Bobwhites Blather is another good site. I like blogs that stay current, are on topic, have fun, and speak to not only their Scouting world, but the writers other interests also.
I could list site after site that I am sure do not get enough visits and would love to see more. You can get a great idea of the Scouting blogs that are out there by visiting my friend Gregg's Half Eagle.com. I would be remiss if I did not give a shout out to the guy that pretty much got me interested and encouraged me to keep it going. Steve. His Blog has been out there for a long time. Steve has a unique take on Scouting from the perspective of a small town and small troop that has been there and done that. Steve was a Scoutmaster for 30 years and just can't walk away. And for that we are all better.
If I left you off the list it is not intended to slight you or say that you do not have a great story. The list I just named was pretty much in the order they appear on my favorites list.. which is pretty random at best. There are great blogs out there.. but google Scouting blogs and see what you get. We need to be up on the top of that list.
The point is we need to get better at supporting one another. We need to tell Scouting's story and get Scouting out front in a positive light.
Today I did receive my "Year in review" from WordPress. They give an option to share, but the numbers really do not mean anything unless they are placed in context. So I thought I would share, but in the context of you the great reader.
This blog was visited 52,000 times this last year. That to me is pretty darn good. But once again, I think it is to the Choir that we preach. And yep, the Choir needs to hear the sermon, but telling Scouting's story and sharing tips and tricks for the trail is something that I want more to see. Believe me when I say that my ego does not this blog. I do it cause I like it and it is helping I am sure. In some small way 52,000 views lended a hand in someones Scouting life or life as a camper.
I was surprised to see that I only posted (as of yesterday) 133 new posts to the blog. And then upon further review I noticed that there were some real thin months for blogging out there.
So for 2013 I resolve to write more and post more to the blog.
2013 saw a major increase in feedback to the blog also and I want to thank everyone that made a contribution to the conversation. I especially want to thank Allan Green. Allan was the top contributor to the blog, lending his comments and feedback more than anyone else. Thanks Allan. Send me your address and I have something for you.
This year in Scouting for me took me to Philmont. Scouting's paradise and I fell in love with the trails, the mountains, the canyon country that is the Sange de Christo range. The trip to Philmont for me was extremely special in many ways. Taking 2 crews from our Troop on an adventure of that magnitude was a challenge and an experience of a life time. It was not a once in a life time adventure, but a mountain top experience that touched me spiritually, physically, and mentally. I got to see the very best in Scouts and Scouting while watching our crew grow and develop and have a lot of fun. Philmont was the Scouting high light of the year for me.
Our grew again this year, and we lost some boys along the way. But in the end, the program got stronger and the Scouts got better. Youth leadership met many challenges this year and came out better for it. With a great plan going into 2013 I look forward to the many adventures that lay ahead.
Personally I grew this year. My relationships and my friendships are stronger.
And then there is the obsession with my backpack.
I have set a goal to reduce volume and weight from my pack. This is going to be a lengthy project and one that I will have fun doing. Playing with gear, testing new items and ideas and developing a lighter philosophy when it comes to hitting the trail. I look forward to that and sharing that with you here on the blog.
2012 was a good year. 2013 is going to be better.
Resolve to make changes in your life. Resolve to make your world better, your self better, and those around you better.
Have a Great Scouting Day!

this show just started its second season last night. I loved it when it was on last summer or last fall, and it continues to be good.
For those of you who don't watch it, it's from the creators of Law and Order, and its billed as the real life L & O. It showcases actual real court cases. Last season it was in SD CA, not sure if it's in the same city this time around.

With a Cox bundle, customers have substantial savings and all communication needs with one company. Cell phone, landline, digital cable television, and high speed Internet access are combined to give the subscriber a budget break and facilitate ease of service.
Cell phones are a great asset to communication in District Of Columbia. For some, the mobile technology is reserved for emergencies only. A flat tire, staying in touch on a journey, or a venue for important calls to get through when an individual is away from home, a cell is a necessity. For others, the apparatus seems permanently attached to the ear. Driving down the road, at work, during classes at school, the cell is always nearby.
While cells are very convenient away from home, a lot of customers still prefer the traditional landline. With a Cox bundle customers can avail themselves of both options. Then, while the cell is charging, calls can be forwarded to the home phone for easy pick up. Actually, the opposite is true as well. With Cox as the service provider for both types of phones, communication is made easy regardless of the location.
Thanks to a Cox bundle, keeping in touch with world events is also made easy. Digital cable television can take the viewer around the globe in a matter of seconds. Keep up with politics, newsworthy events, weather, and sports, at the touch of a button. Then, when the family wants to sit down together and watch a movie, the basic 250 channels is bound to have something everyone in the house can enjoy.
In the event parents are worried the kids will find inappropriate programming, Cox has an amicable solution. While cable is geared toward all viewers of every taste, the company understands the need to govern children's choices. Thus, parental controls are available with every District Of Columbia Cox bundle. Now Mom and Dad can block individual programs based on the age rating, entire channels, or shows that are simply not acceptable for the family.
Likewise, parents have the option to control High Speed Internet access. According to a recent poll, people are actually spending more time online today, than sitting in front of the television. Many Web users are youngsters who may not always make safe choices when surfing the Net. However, banning its use altogether is not the answer.
With a world of knowledge at their fingertips, the Internet is a great source of information for homework and big class projects. A plethora of credible sites can truly enhance a child's education. Plus, fun sites are available for sheer entertainment. So, do not throw the baby out with the bathwater, so to speak. With a Cox bundle kids and parents can still enjoy the wonderful tool of high speed Internet.
In fact, more parents are hanging up the suit and tie, opting to stay at home to earn a living. Most people know about making a little extra money by selling merchandise on eBay. Many are learning of ways to make a little extra cash in the evenings, to help make ends meet. But, business is growing and people are actually earning as much, or more, as the office job left behind.
With a Cox bundle, District Of Columbia home-based businesses can count on staying connected, with the ability to send and receive vital information and download large files. Coupled with digital phone service and an unlimited long distance, freelancers, virtual store owners, marketing professionals, and more can earn a profitable income and have the flexibility to spend more time with the family.
In short, with a Cox bundle, District Of Columbia (DC) customers can have dependable digital access for every communication need, both personal and professional. Stay in touch at home and away. Enjoy the entertainment and information of superior cable television, and remain connected for work, education, and just for fun. Plus, pick the best plan for the family and save a little money in the bargain.

On Tuesday, sky watchers will get a rare view of the planet moving across the sun
Come one, come all to the Venus sky show! The rare event will be visible in the late afternoon on Tuesday in the Western Hemisphere—or Wednesday morning in the Eastern Hemisphere. It is a show you likely have never seen before and will never see again. It's called the "transit of Venus." Transit means to pass through or across. During Venus's upcoming transit, the planet will appear to be a little black dot drifting slowly across the face of the sun. It's a spectacle that won't happen again for another 105 years.
The event is so unique that museums and schools around the world are holding Venus viewing parties for those who want to see the sun with a temporary beauty mark. Even astronauts aboard the International Space Station are planning to watch the event.
"Anything silhouetted on the sun looks interesting," said Anthony Cook, an astronomer at the Griffith Observatory, in Los Angeles, California. "Seeing Venus is extremely rare."
Viewing Venus
Venus is the second planet from the sun between Mercury and Earth. It is about the same size as Earth. Venus appears as one of the brightest objects in the night sky because its thick clouds reflect a lot of sunlight back into space. But this transit won't cause a big change to the brightness of the sky. Venus will only block out a tiny part of the sun. "You have to know it's happening," said David DeVorkin, of the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum, in Washington, D.C.
The transit will last six hours and 40 minutes. Many people are expected to visit the observatory in Mount Hollywood, in Los Angeles. They will look through telescopes with special filters. Experts remind viewers to have patience. The event takes longer to happen than a solar or lunar eclipse.
Unlike eclipses, Venus transits are truly rare. They come in pairs with each transit separated by eight years. Each pair is separated by more than 100 years. The last transit occurred in 2004. After this year, the next pair will occur in 2117 and 2125. Many of us alive today will not get to see this event happen ever again.
Getting A Glimpse
German astronomer Johannes Kepler first predicted the Venus transit in the 17th century. He observed that every century or so, the orbit of Earth and Venus line up perfectly with the sun. Only six transits have been observed in history. Only two people were said to have seen the transit of 1639. The 1882 transit was more popular. People jammed the sidewalks of New York City and paid 10 cents each to peek through a telescope.
The most recent transit, which happened in 2004, was viewed by millions in person and online. The Venus viewings are important to scientists. They use the alignment of Venus and the Sun to help measure the size of our solar system. The method is still used today to search for alien worlds outside of our solar system.
The entire transit will be visible from the western Pacific, eastern Asia and eastern Australia. Sky watchers in parts of the Western Hemisphere, including the U.S., will see the beginning of the show before sunset. In parts of the Eastern Hemisphere, the tail end of the transit can be seen after sunrise. The event will also be streamed live on the NASA website.
Skygazers who want the full experience are heading to Hawaii. It is the best viewing spot because Venus's whole transit will be visible. Across the Hawaiian Islands, eclipse glasses will be passed out so that people can safely see Venus crossing without damaging their eyes. Experts warn sky watchers not to stare directly at the sun. As with a solar eclipse, it is important to wear special protective glasses to view the event safely.

I took this picture of the twins on April 28th. It was the year anniversary of being chosen by our agency, Holt, as the twins parents. Sweet blessings!!
I have hoarded our Easter candy stash and bribed these two with the best of it to go potty. Specifically, #2. On this day, Sophie went and Harrison was not letting her get a candy bracelet without him.
So, he did too. We are still just dabbling in potty training and waiting for a row of open days for hard core no turning back potty training. It will be summer. and even though our vacation is mid-July( thankfully Brandon is taking time off and we are going somewhere just still working out the details of where...we are shooting for the beach). we may wait until after then just because we have so much in between... But hey, maybe not.
Harrison loves to love on Greer in the mornings. While I was drying my hair this morning, he crawled into Greer's toddler bed with him!! Sweet boys.
Daddy is a big helper Mondays and Wednesday mornings with getting the kids and I out of the house. He is pretty awesome like that. His main job is feeding Greer but he normally picks up a few odd jobs too... Like brushing teeth.
This is my new system for shoes.
The kids love it since it seems like a game. I send them with shoes and they put them in the right basket. I've had this Ikea shelf with baskets for a while but, on a naptime whim, I put the kids photos on them.
This is the trio ready to go to Harrison and Sophie's end of the year preschool program!!
And another...
It was a sweet little program where our kids were kind enough not to steal anyone else's spotlight! ;)
Harrison and Sophie continue to make baby steps towards liking each other more than just a little :)
Our social worker had to reschedule our visit during daddy's lunch and the kids took full advantage of that...
Oh, and the kids got these place setting placemats for Christmas and we have been practicing...
I loooove this face Harrison makes all the time!
And I just love this face too!!
Harrison always makes his way into our bed early in the morning.
And who knew? Harrison can totally ride more than a tricycle. We were at the park with friends when he took off on one. Daddy was working so we made the video for him. Normally, Harrison would wear a helmet. Daddy says a bike is in his future.
That about sums up a month worth of IPhone photos that don't have a post of their own. I love Instagram and my iPhone camera. They are what I am turning to for most pictures and blogging these days! I just want to catch as much as I can and my big camera is like having a 4th kid in tow and I'm good with these 3 for now!! and my iPhone is always quick on the draw!!

Sadly, these have been discontinued by the manufacturer. But with a little creativity, we are sure that you can still do this activity.
OK, these were an impulse buy and ended up being a great variation to the game of ships and sharks! Instead of using hula hoops or webbing circles to travel across the playing field…..why not use a pair of the World's Largest Underpants! A hillarious way to spice up your bag of tricks.
Here is a testimonial from one of our customers:
"I LOVE the "world's largest undies". Sorry, but somebody has got to tell you how great these are! I'm a elementary school social worker, and I've used them lots with kids/classrooms when I have to talk about being flexible and give-n-take. However, my favorite use is with staff. I bring 'em out when we have to talk about "crap"…you know, the crud that nobody wants to tackle head on, but everyone wants it taken care of??? It's just a way to put people at ease when tackeling the tuff stuff!"
~Thanks, Mary T. Schmitz, MN

The radiator performs a critical function; it keeps the engine from overheating. While running, the engine produces heat. Coolant flowing through the system absorbs and removes extra heat from the engine. The coolant then passes through the radiator where it cools off and is later circulated back to the engine to absorb heat again. A radiator has two tanks that are connected to each other through aluminum or brass tubes. When the coolant passes through these tubes, the radiator cooling fan blows air across the radiator to lower the temperature of the coolant. The tank is usually made of plastic, and it is common for it to crack and start leaking coolant. If the tank or the tubes crack, coolant will leak , the vehicle will overheat and could cause severe engine damage. Radiators also tend to clog over time. When this occurs, not enough coolant flows through the radiator leading to heat build-up, causing the engine to overheat.

Epilepsy, Migraines May Have Family Ties »
"Jan. 8, 2013 -- People with epilepsy have a higher risk for migraines, and now new research offers evidence of a genetic link between the two conditions.
The study confirmed that having a strong family history of epilepsy is a strong "...
(valproate sodium) Intravenous Injection
General Population: Hepatic failure resulting in fatalities has occurred in patients receiving valproate and its derivatives. These incidents usually have occurred during the first six months of treatment. Serious or fatal hepatotoxicity may be preceded by non-specific symptoms such as malaise, weakness, lethargy, facial edema, anorexia, and vomiting. In patients with epilepsy, a loss of seizure control may also occur. Patients should be monitored closely for appearance of these symptoms. Serum liver tests should be performed prior to therapy and at frequent intervals thereafter, especially during the first six months [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
Children under the age of two years are at a considerably increased risk of developing fatal hepatotoxicity, especially those on multiple anticonvulsants, those with congenital metabolic disorders, those with severe seizure disorders accompanied by mental retardation, and those with organic brain disease. When Depacon is used in this patient group, it should be used with extreme caution and as a sole agent. The benefits of therapy should be weighed against the risks. The incidence of fatal hepatotoxicity decreases considerably in progressively older patient groups.
Patients with Mitochondrial Disease: There is an increased risk of valproate-induced acute liver failure and resultant deaths in patients with hereditary neurometabolic syndromes caused by DNA mutations of the mitochondrial DNA Polymerase γ (POLG) gene (e.g. Alpers Huttenlocher Syndrome). Depacon is contraindicated in patients known to have mitochondrial disorders caused by POLG mutations and children under two years of age who are clinically suspected of having a mitochondrial disorder [see CONTRAINDICATIONS]. In patients over two years of age who are clinically suspected of having a hereditary mitochondrial disease, Depacon should only be used after other anticonvulsants have failed. This older group of patients should be closely monitored during treatment with Depacon for the development of acute liver injury with regular clinical assessments and serum liver testing. POLG mutation screening should be performed in accordance with current clinical practice [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
Fetal Risk
Valproate can cause major congenital malformations, particularly neural tube defects (e.g., spina bifida). In addition, valproate can cause decreased IQ scores following in utero exposure.
Valproate should only be used to treat pregnant women with epilepsy if other medications have failed to control their symptoms or are otherwise unacceptable.
Valproate should not be administered to a woman of childbearing potential unless the drug is essential to the management of her medical condition. This is especially important when valproate use is considered for a condition not usually associated with permanent injury or death (e.g., migraine). Women should use effective contraception while using valproate [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS and PATIENT INFORMATION].
Cases of life-threatening pancreatitis have been reported in both children and adults receiving valproate. Some of the cases have been described as hemorrhagic with a rapid progression from initial symptoms to death. Cases have been reported shortly after initial use as well as after several years of use. Patients and guardians should be warned that abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and/or anorexia can be symptoms of pancreatitis that require prompt medical evaluation. If pancreatitis is diagnosed, valproate should ordinarily be discontinued. Alternative treatment for the underlying medical condition should be initiated as clinically indicated [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
Depacon (valproate sodium) is the sodium salt of valproic acid designated as sodium 2propylpentanoate. Valproate sodium has the following structure:
Valproate sodium has a molecular weight of 166.2. It occurs as an essentially white and odorless, crystalline, deliquescent powder.
Depacon solution is available in 5 mL single-dose vials for intravenous injection. Each mL contains valproate sodium equivalent to 100 mg valproic acid, edetate disodium 0.40 mg, and water for injection to volume. The pH is adjusted to 7.6 with sodium hydroxide and/or hydrochloric acid. The solution is clear and colorless.

He worked hard for his state's people, for people to have oppurtunities, and is in the conversation as the greatest legislative senator in US history. The ironic thing is, he worked his whole life for mental health parity (amongst bigger health care goals), so had it been passed in '68 instead of '98, the whole thing could've been avoided.

The Waiting Room (Peter Nicks | USA | 80 min.)
The American medical system is in tatters, and political arguments often overlook the most fundamental element: human beings' health. Director Peter Nicks knew the problems would be most evident, the drama most poignant, in one place: a low-income, urgent care waiting room. This elegantly crafted documentary has an intimate approach that reveals the myriad systematic failures in a way that is compelling and personal. You can't watch The Waiting Room and still ignore the call for change. Working with The Fledging Fund, the Center for Health Media Policy, and the film's own interactive website, Rooftop Films is pleased to present this event committed to positive health care activism.
Opponents of federal health care would have us believe that hospital workers are incompetent, callous bureaucrats, that patients are lazy freeloaders—but that's clearly not the case. The doctors make heroic efforts with limited resources, displaying remarkable bedside manners. The staff stand up for their most destitute constituents. The patients suffer and struggle, carrying burdens that could befall anyone. One man with a bullet lodged in his leg waits for hours, praying not that his pain is taken away, but his anger.
Nicks uses carefully interwoven voice-overs to provide context, while the film absorbs you in the action: the intensity of a doctor on his first day dealing with a deadly accident; the complexity of the staff negotiating the churn of beds overflowing into hallways; the unlikely humor of a nurse who consistently entertains and keeps everyone sane. As stressful as the situation is, for the viewer it's wondrous to watch remarkable people acting nobly. The Waiting Room is an astonishing work of cinema that America needs to see, a clear expression of the dire problems and the hopeful possibilities.

|>> Archive: Warmwater Gamefish Flies Freshwater Bass, pike, muskie?!?
|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Wee Hooker
Yes, any fly with Bulk will spin on the back cast and/or retrieve if not symetrical and or if the face is not perpendicular to the hook line. It takes trial and error. In the interim, I'd suggest you try the Lefties bug design I've posted a few threads down. I tie them all the time in 10# and never have this issue. They are VERy effectivve on our panfish and bass. I'd love to hear how they work for you. P.s. using a loop knot wil also help.
Hey guys,
Thanks for the tips. I'm making a new serie of poppers at this moment and I will be testing them soon with the different techniques that are mentioned. As soon as I have some results I let you know.
Been there done that! In fact I posted about the same issue a couple of seasons back. I know exactly what you're dealing with. I love to throw gurglers and all maner of surface nasties that are all aerodynamically abyssmal. They just wouldn't work the same if they were And its true that heavier tippets are less affected.
Last season I was describing this same problem to a conventional fisherman and mentioned how it screws your cast up like using a spinning bait without a swivel. So, he digs in his tackle bag and pulls out the tiniest swivel I ever saw. I swear it would struggle to sink a size 28 olive emerger and was rated 30lb I picked up a few at a local store and will be trying them out this season. Even with the smallest warmwater popper I have no concerns over the weight of the swivel compromising the action of the popper and if my early-life spinning experiences are anything to go by, the problem is fixed. Watch this space for results
|Dble Haul
I agree that the fly design may be one of the root causes, but as you've just said sometimes the fly is the hot ticket and you don't really want to change it. That being said, the easy solution is to alter the leader, not the fly.
Good discussion, all around.
I see said the blind man
So the consensus is that the spinning is occuring during the cast, and that a stout leader will resist spinning. Makes perfect sense! In fact maybe even adopting Mason or the more readily availble maxima or other quality leader would help that cause in addition to diameter.
I still respectfully maintain that root cause of the rotation is design, however if the popper is working and catching fish it ain't broke don't fix it and understanding the role of the leader is key. It's common to change a magic fly/popper and lose all the mojo.
Something I hadn't thought about, and a good trick to have in the bag of tricks!
|Dble Haul
Juro, I'm referring to a reduction in torsional forces during casting, not while working the popper on the water. In my experience, a small popper will spin on the water as a result of the leader having been twisted during casting. As the leader gradually untwists on the water, the popper spins in unison.
A higher diameter tippet (in relation to popper size) will resist this twisting during the cast more than one of a lower diameter. And by reducing the overall length of the leader, there is just simply less leader to twist, reducing the opportunity for any twisting to happen in the first place. My freshwater popper leader lengths rarely exceed six feet.
|Since I only tie big bangers for salt water I am always using a heavy leader tippet so I don't have the breadth of experience some do on small FW poppers. However I am curious how leader would prevent spinning in lighter applications. This would infer that the line and tippet provide significant resistance to torsional forces, such that it would overcome the tendencies to rotate when pulled on the water due to direction and angle of pull, shape of leading edges, and keel weight (hook).
|Dble Haul
|The points above are all very good and could be contributing to the spinning, but if I had to pick only one it would be the leader. Move up the diameter size of your tippet, and shorten the overall length of the leader. That's what will probably help the most.
Couple things -
1) use a straight eye hook, not a down eye
2) slit the bottom of the foam and push the hook in securing with some zap-a-gap, don't try to center it in the foam
3) forget about the forward canted cup mouth, a straight cylinder works just as well, for instance livebody foam. Otherwise get the pre-formed popper heads with the slit in the bottom for the hook shank
4) I have found that legs do help prevent spinning although you mention it doesn't - perhaps the other items above are overcoming the legs ability to add a little stability
|You could make the shape more uniform by substituting the wound hackle and full feather tail for just some stripped hackle, like the tails on dryflies.
The twisting is happening during your false casts so rubber legs aren't really going to help. They'll only stabilize it for maybe one false cast, then they'll provide extra momentum on all the subsequent casts and actually make the problem worse. The reason it's happening is that your flies are uneven. One of the feathers is probably bigger than the other or flares out more than the other. All you can do is make sure your flies are as uniform as possible. The hook also needs to come through the head so that it's perfectly even too.
One solution to your problem is to switch to a different fly. Yellow perch love fast moving white streamers.
Popper problems
Greetings o wise men from the fly-talk forum
When the evenings here in the Netherlands become longer and warmer. I'd like to spend them poppering the dutch ditches for yellow perch. Because this is a type of flyfishing that is seldom performed here, I can't buy any poppers in the flyfishing stores. So I developped my own micro poppers made from cork sticks that are being used for carp fishing. The result of this you can see in the pictures below.
These little flies tied on a size 8 to 10 hook can be compared to your panfish poppers I think. The flies work wel and make a lot of noise on the surface only the problem is that, when fished, they start spinning. In the beginning this is not a big problem but at a certain point, the whole leader starts twisting, what is very annoying.
I tried fishing them with a heavier leader point and puting rubber legs on them for more stability but none of this seemed to help.
Does anyone of you guys know the answer to this problem or is it simply impossible to make a micro popper go stable through the water.
I'm looking forward to your suggestions!

Confirmed: Windows 8.1 Will Bring Back The Start Button
Although some of us are perfectly happy with the new Windows 8, others--well, most--of us are still trying to convince ourselves not to hate it. Many feel that although Microsoft built Windows 8 to take advantage of touchscreens while maintaining all the powerful and familiar features of the conventional desktop, the company ended up with an unpolished 'tweener OS that leaves something to be desired.
Windows 8.1 should also let users boot directly into the traditional desktop environment instead of being forced to boot to the touch-friendly Start screen, which will also be a welcome feature for a great number of users.

In loving memory of those missing or stolen
October 15, 2012
1 year ago today my beautiful handsome Harry, you went out for your evening stroll and you never came home. I had only two years with you in my life and I always thought we would be together for a lot longer. I still remember seeing you in Pod 3 in the cattery, you were brought in as an injured stray cat and your hair was very matted so your sides had been shaved giving you a very weird mohawk look, I remember thinking "oh dear lord what a straggly mess you look, people will walk on by and go to the prettier looking cats". I opened the door of your pod and you immediately snuggled against my face and started purring. I knew immediately you were going to mine.

Nearly nine out of 10 kindergartners in Wisconsin are prepared for classroom reading instruction.
That's encouraging. It suggests the vast majority of kindergartners showed up for school last fall with basic literacy skills, such as letter and letter sound recognition. Children learn to read during the first few years of school. Then they read to learn.
Gov. Scott Walker wants to expand early literacy testing across Wisconsin, which makes sense. That will allow educators to quickly identify students for extra help. And if those students continue to struggle, more follow-up can occur.
Eighty-nine percent of kindergartners met the benchmark for the literacy screening last fall, the first time it has been administered statewide. Dane County posted the same percentage, with local districts ranging from 84 percent in Madison to 99 percent in Marshall and Deerfield.
Racine had the smallest percentage of students meeting the benchmark at 74 percent. The State Journal obtained the results under Wisconsin's open records law. The state Department of Public Instruction didn't plan to publish the test scores because they weren't intended for comparisons between districts.
But more information on how our children are doing at learning – before and after they enter kindergarten – should help target resources and prompt action.
Students may lack the skills necessary for learning because of inadequate experience with literacy, a special education need or slow development, said UW-Madison education professor Beth Graue.
Locally, the United Way of Dane County and CUNA Mutal Group Foundation have helped hundreds of young families get ready for kindergarten in recent years. Families receive home visits from early learning specialists through Children's Service Society of Wisconsin. The specialists help parents encourage positive learning activities and behavior.
Just getting books into the hands of preschool children can make a difference. Wisconsin's keen focus on early learning and development must continue and expand.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit recently confirmed that the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA") does not prohibit an employer from modifying its workweek in order to avoid overtime costs.

text: I did finish the survey...added my thoughts...but in reality, it only targets maybe ten percent of canine athletes, so is really, really not going to tell them anything. And they need to redefine athletes, since conformation is no more a sport than a beauty contest is....and it really only covers the modeling portion of that, without the talent competition. Perhaps the reason the ubiquitous "they" don't know much about canine athletes is because "they" only choose to see one tiny portion of the dog world.

Kerr tartan image by Celtus. Licensed under the Creative Commons

Attribution-Share Alike 2.5 Generic license.
The Kerr surname originated in Scotland. Clan Ceàrr was a border clan, located near the border between Scotland and England. They were among the clans called Border Reivers or Borderers. As part of the people who were moved to Ireland during the Plantation of Ulster in the 1600s, they became known as Ulster Scots, and those who came to North America in the early 1700s were referred to here as Scotch-Irish.
In Scotland, the name sounds like care; in my family, it sounds like cur. My Kerr lineage, firmly rooted in Pennsylvania for at least five generations, is said to be as follows:
- James Kerr, born 1702 in Tyrone, Ireland. He was first married to Jane Stewart. They immigrated in 1731 and settled in Donegal Township, Lancaster County, Pennsyvania. After Jane's death, James married Susannah Stevenson, probably before or about 1742. James relocated to Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania, in 1766, and he died there in 1777. James and Susannah were my sixth great-grandparents.
- James Kerr II, born 1752 in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. He was married about 1775, but his wife's name is unknown. The date of his death is also unknown, but would certainly have been after 1780. James Kerr II was my fifth great-grandfather.
- James Kerr III, born 1776 in Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania. He married Margaret Alcorn in 1799 in Lancaster County. Together they raised thirteen children. He died in 1842. James Kerr III was my fourth great-grandfather.
- Robert Kerr, born 1805 in Crawford County, Pennsylvania. With his first wife, Hannah Gardner, he had about six children. After her death in 1842, he married Jane ---. It appears he had at least three more children with her. He died 11 December 1894 in Oil Creek Township, Crawford County. Robert Kerr was my third great-grandfather.
- Andrew Jackson Kerr, born 31 October 1832 (during the administration of President Andrew Jackson, also of Scotch-Irish descent) in Crawford County, Pennsylvania. He married Esther Alice Carroll on 11 September 1862. Together they raised three children. He died in Mercer, Mercer County, Pennsylvania on 19 July 1911. Andrew Jackson Kerr was my great-great-grandfather.
- Milton E. Kerr, born 15 July 1863 in Oil City, Venango County, Pennsylvania. His first wife was Bess Zahniser, with whom he had a daughter. He and Bess were married just short of a year when she died on 4 September 1887 in Mercer. Milton relocated to Nebraska where he met Kate E. Pettis. They were married on 15 December 1889 in Omaha. Their first son (also named Milton E. Kerr) was born in Chicago in 1891, but they appear to have moved back to Pennsylvania before the birth of their second son a year later. Milton was 32 years old when he died 27 September 1895. He was buried in Mercer. Milton E. Kerr was my great-grandfather.
- Rosmer Pettis Kerr, born 30 September 1892 in Mercer, Pennsylvania. He married Evelyn Hauer on 12 June 1916 in Detroit, Michigan. They had three daughters, two of whom lived to adulthood. Rosmer died 9 February 1969 in Port Huron, St. Clair County, Michigan. Rosmer was my grandpa.
- Mary Roslyn Kerr, born 22 October 1922 in Detroit, Michigan. She married Russell M. Krentz on 5 January 1946 in Dearborn, Michigan. Together they raised my sister and me. My mom died 23 April 2005 in Clinton Township, Macomb County, Michigan.
Although Robert Kerr's children are listed in the typescript, there's little additional information about them there. This large family was enumerated in the 1850 census of Oil Creek Township, Crawford County, Pennsylvania. In the 1870 census, Robert and Jane and their youngest children were enumerated immediately before the family of Andrew Jackson Kerr.
There are additional source items for Robert. At some point, probably on my only research trip to Pennsylvania in the early '90s, I noted in my database that there was a Robert Kerr will (Crawford Co. Will Book H, p.288) proved and registered 14 Dec 1894, three days after this Robert Kerr's death. It appears I haven't gotten a copy of it yet. I also noted that news of his death appeared in The Crawford Journal (20 December 1894, p. 2 col. 1) and The Morning Star (14 December 1894, p. 2 col. 3), but I don't have copies or transcripts of those items either. (I may have found that information in an index.) My research trip was far too brief to do all I would have liked to do.
I have a number of source items pertaining to my more recent Kerr ancestors. Some have been mentioned in previous posts here at Before My Time; others will surely become the subjects of future posts.
Proposed Ancestry of Andrew Jackson Kerr, in PDF format, is posted at The Vertical File. It includes some family group information for the first four generations listed above.

The Michigan State University College of Law Lori E. Talsky Center for Human Rights of Women and Children will host a "Symposium on Whether the U.S. Should Become a Party to the U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Child" on April 4—5, 2013.
"The U.S. and Somalia are the only two nations that are not parties to the Convention on the Rights of the Child, a treaty that has become a marker of humanity's moral progress," said Susan H. Bitensky, the Alan S. Zekelman Professor of International Human Rights Law at MSU Law and the Director of the Talsky Center. "Whether the U.S. should continue to balk is no minor matter since American children are not currently enjoying the benefits that the Convention is bringing to children elsewhere."
Howard Davidson, director of the American Bar Association's Center on Children and the Law, will offer the keynote address on Thursday, April 4, 2013, at the East Lansing Marriott at University Place in East Lansing, Michigan.
"This Symposium presents speakers who are in a unique position to inform U.S. consideration of the Convention. They bring to the table the highest levels of expertise in child rights and of the Children's Convention in particular; and, the numerous speakers from aboard will be able to provide perspectives on what it is like to live under the Convention," said Bitensky.
Three panel discussions on Friday, April 5, 2013, in the Castle Board Room at the Law College Building, will feature leading human rights jurists and activists from the around the world offering insights on the child soldier, Convention rights enhancing the child's quality of life, and experiences of states parties in living under the Convention. Confirmed panelists include:
The mission of the Talsky Center is to educate MSU College of Law students, as well as the broader community, about international human rights law and international humanitarian law. The Center aims to promote an understanding of the important civilizing role that this body of law so often plays in a world fraught with transgressions against human dignity and well-being. The Center promotes human rights for all people, with a focus on women and children.

"Cross my heart and Hope to die" was second only to "Scouts Honor" when I was a kid. And you know those words meant something and no matter who you were.. Scout or Non Scout.. those words stuck like glue to the person making the proclamation. It meant that what was about to be said.. or what had just been said was the truth, the whole truth.. and nothin' but the truth… Scouts Honor.
The other day I was on my way to work and one of the DJ's of the morning drive show said "Scouts Honor" after he told a story.. much to the ribbing of his co hosts, he defended his story and they all had a laugh.
I thought to myself that I had not heard that in a long time. Then today at work I over heard a couple co workers talking about an amazing ski run on the mountain… the story abruptly ended with "Scouts Honor.. I'm telling the truth!" And that pretty much ended the discussion. I mean.. what can trump "Scouts Honor"?
When we were kids, and no I am not going to say it was a simpler time and that the world was a better place… but when we were kids I think innocents was easier to come by. I think that among the coming of age and testing the waters also came a time that we understood that a mans word is a mans word and we all started with the general thought that people were Trustworthy until proven otherwise.
One of my customers and I were talking today about the cost of dishonesty.
We don't give it much thought these days, because by and large we assume that most people are dishonest. I mean the examples are all around us. We see cheating and dishonesty on TV, there are more Cop shows and overly dramatic "Reality TV" programs than ever. We can't trust politicians, the Churches seem to be in a constant fight for credibility and the Schools.. well I won't even start with them. Needless to say there seems to be an overwhelming case of moral bankruptcy that could easily be fixed by owning "Scouts Honor".
This older gentleman shared with me that back when he was a kid they never locked their house… they never had to chain up their bike at the pool, you could leave a pie on the window seal to cool, and that kind of stuff. He never feared walking in his neineighborhood at night and if the porch light was on your house was as safe as Ft. Knox. "Scouts Honor"
Now, we have to lock everything, to include a password on your phone. You have to worry about who's on the neighborhood watch, and an unlocked door is an invitation for someone to rob you.
I talked to a friend of mine that was burglarized last year. He ended up going to trial over it and the defendant stated that if the door was locked he would not have broke in..so it was the home owners fault for leaving the door unsecured. Incredible… But what does this have to do with Scouts Honor?
Just think of how things would be if everyone.. or at least two thirds of everyone believed in "Scouts Honor" and what it means.
It means that you try to live your life being Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean, and Reverent. I can not think of one thing that is bad about that.. Scouts Honor.
When I heard that on the radio the other day I wondered how many other folks caught that and if they had the same thought I had.
I Can only wonder.
Have a Great Scouting Day!

Chapter 20: Entropy and Free Energy
The object of the popular Rubik's cube puzzle is to rotate the pieces until each side of the cube is one of the six solid colors. It's not easy. Now imagine trying to do it blindfolded—randomly turning the pieces this way and that way. Do you think you would ever solve it? It is highly unlikely that would ever be the case. In nature, randomness or disorder is the more natural state of things. It takes energy, hard work, and perseverance, to put things in order. Disorder is also preferable in chemical systems and is one of the keys, along with energy, to determining whether reactions and other processes are likely to occur at all. In this chapter, you will learn about the thermodynamic quantities of entropy and free energy, and their relationship to chemical reactivity.

Credit Suisse analysts Philip Winslow and Michael Nemeroff today pen a 39-page think piece on why you should "get back into high-growth software" stocks such as Salesforce.com (CRM), Synchronoss (SNCR), Concur Technologies (CNQR) and Ultimate Software (ULTI).
"Dude, what just happened," to growth stocks, the authors write, referring to broad declines in the growth investments this year. While Synchronoss is up 7% this year, barely more than the S&P 500's 4.7%, Ultimate and Concur are both down 15% so far.
Growth from the three has been consistent, but multiples have contracted:
Following dramatic, across-the-board stock price appreciation last year through early 2014, high-growth software stocks (as well as growth stocks across multiple other tech and non-tech sectors) have fallen tremendously since early March. With fundamentals having remained relatively similar both in the run-up and the sell-off (i.e., best-in-class revenue growth), valuations have swung widely and will be the key factor in determining when "it's safe to get back in the water," in our opinion.
So, the authors take a look at average multiples over 5- to 10-year periods, based on the enterprise value divided by projected revenue, divided by the projected revenue growth rate.
They explain in a series of charts that "EV/Revenue multiples have generally fallen in line to, in some cases, even below historical levels as compared with consensus forward growth expectations."
Here's a chart the authors use to show the valuation multiple relative to historical patterns:
The authors name Salesforce as their top high-growth pick, citing its dominance of cloud computing software, and its valuation reset:
Propelled by replacement and expansion cycles across B2B and B2C implementations, we expect the CRM market to offer the greatest incremental revenue growth opportunity for software vendors over (at least) the next three to five years. As we highlighted in The Apps Revolution Manifesto —Volume 2: The Markets, we view Salesforce.com as the company in our coverage universe most leveraged to this massive technology refresh and expansion cycle across the CRM market (as well as the emerging, high-growth social enterprise and Platform-as-a- Service markets) [...] Therefore, given that Salesforce.com's NTM EV/Revenue To NTM Revenue Growth Ratio trades relatively in line to slightly below both its and the company's comparable group's 5-year historical averages, we continue to see meaningful upside to Salesforce.com's stock.
Those four names are not the only ones the authors review: they also see promise in shares of a host of others, such as Cornerstone OnDemand (CSOD), Marketo (MKTO), NetSuite (N), Palo Alto Networks (PANW), Proofpoint (PFPT), ServiceNow (NOW), Splunk (SPLK), Tableau Software (DATA), and Textura (TXTR).

It took a double take before I realized that large Skee Ball photo was an actual photo and not some part of a kit. I love how you did that! The banner matches your photos really well. Such a fun and interesting layout!
LOVE the way you blended the photo into the BG. Cool arrangement of the photos and they really pop against this neutral BG. Nice work!
Very cool! Your blended background photo is awesome!
Me too - LOVE what you did with your background and photo, Karen. I was fascinated looking at it and how you treated it. Super work adding in color and other papers, too - it does look like you bought it that way, super work!
Your photos are adorable, I keep marveling at how that lil' guy is growing and growing and he looks so cute throwing the ball! I like the way you arranged the pics and the pops of color all around. . Great layout!
Fun photos. He looks like a natural! I agree with everyone above who likes your background. It looks terrific behind those colors photos and embellishments. Great layout! PS - Don't you love Skee Ball?
love the blended bg photo in sepia tones.
I love the fun arrangemet of the photos over the wonderful background pic.

where do u think parcells will go with these picks conservative or go for the crazy picks and what positions u think he is looking for
where do u think parcells will go with these picks conservative or go for the crazy picks and what positions u think he is looking for
I'll tell you why- while that win(as is any win) was great, it was a difficult game to watch. That defense today came up big repeatedly deep in their own territory. This team has big holes and is doing enough to win but needs a lot of help.
Plus, it's ALWAYS OK to talk draft and talk about making our team better.
We definitely need:
1)receivers - take pressure off running game, playmakers; Bess and Camarillo are the only WR's at this point who are consistent playmakers. Today Ginn dropped(third game now) a key reception for a 1st down.
2)O-line - depth and competition. How bad is Smiley's injury? How good is Donald Thomas really? What do we do with Carey?
1)Speed rushers- we've got to get more pressure, make it easier for Porter, and when he's doubled, bring in someone who can make sacks across from him
2)secondary - Keep Bell, Will Allen; Goodman has been playing well, but he's 29 and a free agent; Renaldo Hill is also a FA I believe; secondary for the future, for depth, for competition
3)NG- for down the road, 2-3 years, when's Ferguson can't hold up anymore
Just bring in playmakers at any other best available position. RB, TE, DL; just stack the defense, stack playmakers
The pleasure of what we enjoy is lost by wanting more.
-A fortune cookie
Best player available, regardless of position.
You never know if some guys might slide down to us but I would go:
[SIGPIC] Member of the EIB Club
I think we'll try for Secondary, LBs and probably the O-line in this draft.
Parcells doesn't draft WRs.
Plenty of directions we could go so the best thing that we'll do is let the draft come to us. Meaning if any top notch players fall to us we'll pounce on them like JP on a QB.

Shelby Mustang GT350 by Classic Recreations
Michael was paralyzed during a motorcycle flat track racing accident when he was 12 years old. The injury broke his back and permanently put him in a wheel chair. With little to no feeling from his torso to his legs, Michael has had an uphill battle to get his break in motorsport. Using a customized steering wheel with hand controls Michael started racing go karts and fell in love with racing all over again.
Much of the time before and after track sessions is spent in the garage area with Michael's family and team mechanics, as well as his personal trainer. It was Michael's father that originally came up with the design to build the steering wheel which Michael now uses.
