We traveled to Bear's Cabin from Tucson to enjoy the beautiful fall weather and to enjoy time together as a family. We loved the cabin and truly felt at home here. The kitchen was so well equipped - we found everything we needed. This is a beautiful cabin - thank you for sharing it. We had a wonderful 4-day stay. Horseback riding, fishing, the nature trail - all were enjoyed. We look forward to coming back.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 2/2

Hi Everyone - we are from Vermont, and are Greer "first timers". How beautiful is it here? Wow, truly stunning. We have dined on colorful rainbow trout that we caught less than one half mile away, and hiked along little babbling brooks. The cabin was a true haven. So nice to come "home" to after a full day outdoors. Thank you so much for providing your home to us. It was just perfect.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 3/3

About: We are life-long residents of southern Arizona, and have enjoyed traveling to Greer for a long time. What a beautiful spot! Buying this special home in Greer has been a dream of ours, and we really look forward to our visits. We hope you enjoy it too!
The Unique Benefits at this Cabin:
It is a special treat to see the seasons change in Greer. We love it all. You can walk from Bear's Cabin to trout fishing in the Little Colorado, visit other nearby hidden spots, do some lake fishing, go on really neat hikes, or just relax on the front porch. Fall brings gorgeous color, and we always look forward to our winter trips to ski at Sunrise. It's so much closer than being in Pinetop, and so much nicer than being in a motel. The fireplace on a cold winter night is just the best. The wildflowers and crisp mornings of springtime are a great time to visit too.

Im eating my words, after searching for a week or so I finally found them. The butterfly valve is saying 13 ft lbs "max" torque, the actuator I am sourcing is 7.3 ft lbs. Should work.
Cool, keep me posted. I'll figure out my layout for plumbing in the next few weeks for the new build
Yeah i will. Their are a lot of factors that will determine how far I take this. Most of them come down to Feasibility. I still need the actuator in hand from china, CAD up the body mount and get them manufactured.
Even better is I found an actuator through my supplier that can accept a yellow 0-10V control signal wire to control the valve's open angle. So cross your fingers that 10nm will open these valves. This is were I may need the help of my engineering friends to make this user friendly. If we cant get them to do it sanitary, I can still source these valves in.
Tag me as very interested, I'm building a system with a raspberry pi backend. Let me know!

Former "America's Got Talent" contestant Joe Finley believes a homeless person snuck into a ritzy L.A. hotel and killed his wife last year ... and now Joe is suing the hotel for wrongful death.
According to his lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, Finley claims his wife's death could have been prevented if the hotel would have done a better job of keeping out transients.
As TMZ first reported, Joe was questioned by cops after his wife's body was discovered in the staircase of the hotel back in October.
Cops have not officially identified the killer -- and the investigation is still open -- but in his lawsuit, Joe seems pretty confident a transient was responsible for the death.
In the docs, Joe claims the Biltmore was aware that there had been several recent disturbances inside the hotel by "transients and other uninvited third parties" ... including assaults and theft ... but the hotel failed to take proper security measures to keep their guests safe.
Joe claims there were several items in the staircase that suggest homeless people were even living in the building the night his wife was killed ... the items included, "Filthy clothing ... bottles full of urine ... and dirty blankets."
Joe is suing for unspecified damages. So far, no comment from the Biltmore.
Joe's lawyer, Sean Macias, tells us, "The tragic death of Laura Finely was preventable and The Biltmore failed to provide basic security measures and precautions."
Macias adds, "There has been prior serious criminal incidents at the hotel. They were understaffed with security and they had construction on first and second floors where uninvited transients and third parties were staying."
The homeless are such convenient scapegoats.
But who's to say the murderer wasn't a guest at the hotel, or an employee?
Was a "transient" captured on security videotape that night?
In this economy hotels are known to have made significant cut backs on staffing not the least of which is graveyard security. There is NO excuse for bottles of urine and filthy blankets to be in a hotel's stairwells. A properly staffed security team would have moved the transients on their way and called housekeeping to remove the items blocking the fire exits/stairwells.
Hotel is downtown, where lots of bums and crackheads and gang members congregate. Majority of businesses shut down after dark in that area. Where was he when this happened? Probably trolling for trannys in Hollywood. Sads for his wife though.
Wow, they have nice bums there that think to pee in a bottle. Bums around here just pee on the wall or in the stairwell.
Seriously bro? That's the best you've come up with?
Really? He was staying at an obvious "not the Beverly Hills" hotel, so how can he sue?
And it's only been a year?
I doubt this is true!
He had something to do with it....way to shady!
Sean Macias???? Isn't he that bad porn lawyer that won some money for Jules Jordan and then was never able to collect it??? I'd get a new lawyer..............
Awww..... Don't blame it on the bums..... And then get money out of it.... If you REALLY think it was them.... then sue them, then donate the money to a place that can help shelter them and feed them to keep them away from stair way.....
Problem solved....
I had to re read this. If it was such a shady stairwell, why would his wife go down it at all without him and not use the elevator?
This just proves that since the case is still open, hubby did it and just is now providing some new found people to blame.
I'll be watching this one on the male version tv show of "SNAPPED".
Explain why a homeless person would kill his wife?
"Filthy clothing ... bottles full of urine ... and dirty blankets." Well there would have been plenty of evidence on her if that was the case. Dirty paws. He's not going to get squat. They still don't have anyone convicted. If it was him it was not the hotels fault he's a loon.

Town looking to
install new well
SUTTON The Vermont town of Sutton is looking to install a new well.
The Caledonian Record reported that the Select Board recently reviewed a proposal that would have it borrow up to $150,000 for the replacement of the village water systems well. High nitrate levels are the reason the water system has been a concern for much of 2013.
The proposal estimates it would go to voters by Oct. 30 and the new well would be completed by Aug. 30, 2015.
Sutton has not charged residents on the water system for several quarters due to the water not being drinkable by pregnant women or children. The water can be used for washing, showers and by adults.MORE IN This Just InBy Brent Curtis Full StoryWhen Leland Kinsey long deemed the unofficial poet laureate of the Northeast Kingdom ...

Weber, Geertz, and Ricoeur on Explanation and Interpretation | |
One perennial issue in the study of religion is the relationship between explanation and interpretation. Explanation provides causes. Interpretation provides meanings. The issue is the relationship between causes and meanings, for which rough synonyms are reasons, motives, intentions, and purposes. This article presents three of the most common positions on the relationship: those of Max Weber, Clifford Geertz, and Paul Ricoeur. The aim is not to endorse any of the positions but simply to compare them. | |

The Occupy Movement, Religion and Social Formations | |
The Occupy movement was an unprecedented social formation that spread to approximate 82 countries around the globe in the fall of 2011 via social media through the use of myths, symbols and rituals that were performed in public space and quickly drew widespread mainstream attention. In this paper I argue that the movement offers a unique instance of how discourse functions in the construction of society and I show how the shared discourses of Occupy were taken-up and shaped in relation to the political opportunity structures and interests of those involved based on my own fieldwork at Occupy Winnipeg. I also argue that the Occupy movement provides an example of how we might substantively attempt to classify "religion" by looking at how it embodied certain metaphysical claims while contrasting it with the beliefs and practices of more conventionally defined "religious" communities. | |

Rethinking "Religion and Politics": Reflections on the Reception and Import of Talal Asad's Genealogies of Religion | |
Twenty years after the publication of Genealogies of Religion, scholarship in the field of "religion and politics" mostly ignores Talal Asad's central arguments about the socially constructed nature of the secular-religious distinction. However, a critical counter-tradition is gaining traction. After briefly reviewing the work of three scholars who have drawn on Asad to intervene in debates in political theory, religion and violence, and international relations, I offer some reflections on the triangular relation among states, capital, and the cultural formation of religion. "Religion" as a transcultural category, I argue, can be understood as partly the spectral projection of a universalizing liberal-capitalist order in search of an "other" by means of which to legitimate itself. | |

Romania's Saving Angels: "New Men", Orthodoxy and Blood Mysticism in the Legionary Movement | |
In Romania, a Christian, ultranationalistic movement known as The Legionary Movement has before and after the Communist period called for a national, spritual revolution. Perceiving themselves as front fighters protected by the Archangel, Legionaries endeavour to purify the nation so that it can live in its God-given fatherland. In order to assure national resurrection, Legionaries want to create a "New Man", understood as a new male. This ideal combines the qualities of a Christian martyr, a working hero, a monk and a militant and as such both complex and ambiguous. In practice, Legionaries have a lot in common with other European "boot boys". Based on field studies, this article discusses the role of men in this movement: their role models, male bonding, rituals and myths, as well as their concepts of family, brotherhood and blood relations, all with reference to a particular ethnonationalistic, christocentric worldview. | |

God is Not One but "Religion" Is: A Critical Reading of Stephen Prothero's God is Not One: the Eight Rival Religions that Run the World--and Why Their Differences Matter | |
This review places Prothero's book in the context of the academic study of Religion. Specifically, I discuss the issues of defining religion, the history of the category "religion," and the relationship between that category and Euro-American colonialism. The central argument offered is that Prothero's implicit theory of religion is poorly defined, uninformed about the history of the term, and naive about issues of cross-cultural study. As such, his picture of religion is ethnocentric in that, for all his discussion of differences, he does not see real difference. Given that he explicitly claims that the book will be useful for American entrepreneurs, diplomats, and soldiers, his work is complicit in the project of the neo-colonialist, neo-imperialist spread of capitalist modes of production throughout the globe. | |

Chakras and Endocrine Glands: Metaphysics and Physiology in the Preksha Dhyana of Acharya Mahaprajna | |
This paper is an exploration of preksha dhyana as a case study of modern yoga. Preksha is a system of yoga and meditation introduced by Acarya Mahaprajna of the Jain Svetambara Terapanth in the late twentieth century. I argue that preksha is an attempt to join the newly emerging transnational yoga market whereby yoga has become a practice oriented around the attainment of physical health and psychological well-being. I will evaluate the ways in which Mahaprajna appropriates scientific discourse and in so doing constructs a new and unique system of Jain modern yoga. In particular, I evaluate the appropriation of physical and meditative techniques from ancient yoga systems in addition to the explanation of yoga metaphysics by means of biomedical discourse. I will demonstrate how, in Mahaprajna's preksha system, the metaphysical subtle body becomes somaticized. In other words, Mahaprajna uses the bio-medical understanding of physiology to locate and identify the functions of metaphysical subtle body parts and processes in the physiological body. | |

right. you forget to pay for your domain, registrar warns you, they let you know a few times before the inevitable happens, they beg you to renew it. and you don't. and the guy that takes it when it falls is a sleazeball?
what do you think business is, a charity?
they need it, want it and they take it. you let it go. I am not going to ask you too are you aware of it and are you sure you want to let it go and can I take it.
if you let it hang in the space for months before it gets deleted for real then it is most likely of NO value to you nor of no value to anyone else.

Issue moving apps to SD Card - HELP!
I have the samsung note 10.1 2014. I see an option in application manager to move an app to the sd card. When I do this, it seems to work, shows that the app was moved. When I check the disk space on the internal and sd storage, nothing has changed and the app folder is still on the internal storage. What am I missing here?
Re: Issue moving apps to SD Card - HELP!
I suppose it depends on the app you're moving... Remember that this is something that Samsung brought 'back to life' and is no longer 'officially' supported by Android. That being said, it's still up to the app's developers to enable the move to SD, and most don't move the main app, just secondary data (like downloaded items and extra game data). It may say that it moved something, but the main app is still in internal memory.

Huawei commits to 'Ascend' Windows Phone 8 handset
When it comes to Windows Phone 8, "ascend" is exactly what Microsoft needs to raise up its smartphone share.
That's why Huawei's commitment to produce a Huawei Ascend handset running Microsoft's freshly announced Windows Phone 8 OS is so key. Although the Chinese company isn't well known in the top-tier U.S. carriers, the company has a strong partnership with no-contract carriers like MetroPCS and Cricket -- two carriers that have plenty of midrange Android smartphones but no Windows Phone.

Mining is the profession of extracting ore from asteroids, ice from ice fields and gas from gas clouds. These materials can then be refined into minerals, ice products and boosters. These refined substances are used in the production and maintenance of all player created items and structures in EVE, such as ships and modules. It is one of the few professions immediately available to beginning players and most EVE industrialists started their careers by mining. Mining is perhaps the second most economically safe profession in EVE, save planetary interaction, in high-sec systems. Losing mining ships and/or being podded is uncommon and minerals are always in demand. Mining is accomplished by finding an asteroid belt, ice belt or gas cloud, and mining its asteroids /ice asteroids/gas clouds with special ship modules (mining lasers, ice harvesters, and gas cloud harvesters, respectively).
To quickly get into mining, all Eve University members are encouraged to take advantage, at no cost, of the mining loaner fleet program. The University will even provide the skillbook for you! All miners are encouraged to join the E-Uni Mining Ops mailing list and you will receive an email if a fleet commander organises a mining fleet. Many miners in EVE University have come together and organized the Amarr Mining Campus (AMC) where newer players are taught the basics of solo and fleet mining. It is highly encouraged that newer players interested in mining contact an AMC officer.
Contents |
Advantages of mining over other professions
- Low entry cost: The dedicated mining frigate Venture is provided free as a mission reward from Career Agent - Industry mission 2. The dedicated skill (Mining Frigate) for commanding the Venture requires only 15 minutes of training time.
- Relatively low risk: It is usually very safe to mine in high-sec (the principal dangers being suicide gankers or war targets).
- Low level of involvement needed: In most scenarios, miners only need to be active 5 seconds for every 3 minutes (to target new asteroids) and an extra 1 minute for every 30 minutes (to unload the full cargo of mined ore in station).
- Guaranteed income: Mining products are always in high demand because ships and structures which were blown up have to be replaced, and replacing ships and structures need materials.
Disadvantages of mining over other professions
- Skill intensive: Despite the low entry cost, it takes a lot of training time to become an efficient miner.
- Nontransferable skills: Mining skills are useful only for mining.
- Questionable fun factor: The amount of fun that is involved in mining is usually very low for most people. People in EVE tend to find more fun in blowing up ships or being blown up.
- Income ceiling: It is highly improbable to earn much more than 10m ISK per hour as a high sec miner while other professions can be much more lucrative.
- Main article: Asteroids and Ore
The easiest way to find asteroids is to fly to an asteroid belt; nearly every system in Eve has at least one. Asteroid belts show up on the overview, or right-click in space and look through the "Asteroid belt" section. Each asteroid belt is composed of a variety of asteroids, each containing a particular kind of ore. The kinds and quantities of ore are determined by the security rating of the system and what faction controls it (rarer and more valuable ores are found only in lower-security systems, and the ore deposits tend to be larger there as well). Keep in mind that asteroids only spawn after downtime, so there will be belts that are devoid of a certain asteroid (or any asteroids in some cases) because other miners have already mined it out.
Asteroids can also be found in the deadspace pockets created for certain missions, and in cosmic anomalies. While these sites are a bit more difficult to find, they also tend to have much less competition and have richer pickings. Hint: Set your overview to "default mining" (click the triangle next to overview -> load -> mining) to see asteroids other than Veldspar. (Note that not all ores and other harvestable items will not be shown by using the default mining set.)
If you would like to dive more deeply into mining, it's worth determining the most profitable way to mine. This involves deciding what asteroids to mine, where to find these asteroids, which ships (and skills) are best suited and optimized to mine, and (in most cases) how best to haul the ore to a refining station and then to the market. All miners should attempt to maximize their efficiency (and therefore their profitability), which is typically measured by the amount of ISK earned per hour.
For example, Veldspar is the most common and cheapest ore in EVE and has a volume of 0.1 m3; Scordite is the next most common ore but has a volume of 0.15 m3. Therefore, for every cycle, 50% more Veldspar is mined than Scordite (since mining lasers mine a fixed volume of ore per minute). In order for Scordite mining to be more profitable than Veldspar mining, Scordite's market price must be in turn 50% greater than Veldspar's. Since the market is player-driven, ore and mineral prices are ever-changing, hence miners should always check the market for the most efficient ore/mineral to mine for.
Websites like Grismar's Ore Chart or .GUN. can look up the current market prices for ores and minerals, and give you a recommendation which ores are the most profitable. Remember to double-check the prices that any automated tools give you - they will often use regional averages to determine mineral prices; if you plan to sell your goods at a specific station or hub then your priorities might come out differently.
Mining maths
- Main article: More Mining Maths
The majority of miners do not need to use complicated maths. There are usually only 3 or 4 ore types in the asteroid belts in your area and if simply mining for cash it is easy to get a rough idea as to which ore is best by simply mining one ore type until you fill your hold and check the value of the rocks before you empty your hold. Repeat with a different ore type and you will quickly work out which ore type is best to mine in your area.
Ice and Gas mining
So far this article has only talked about mining asteroids, but there are in fact two more things in Eve that can be mined: ice and gas. While they share some similarities with asteroid mining, their mechanics are in many ways quite different, and are therefore covered in separate articles: Ice Mining and Gas Cloud Mining.
- Main article: Mining Ships
There are three types of ships used in mining: a mining ship, a hauler and a mining support ship.
Mining ships
The best option for a new miner is to train into the Venture, a dedicated mining frigate (before the Retribution expansion, each race had its own mining frigate, but this is no longer the case). The Venture and the necessary skillbook (Mining Frigate) are given out for free by the Industrial Career agents, and training the necessary skills takes only a few minutes. The Venture is a mini mining barge with a substantial ore hold (which minimises travel to stations to unload ore), very good mining yield and built-in warp core stabilisation (which makes it easier to escape from hostile ships).
After a week's training, a budding miner should have the necessary skills to fly a mining barge, which have more than double the mining yield of a Venture, as well as even larger ore holds and/or a stronger tank. These ships are also more expensive (15-40M ISK, plus modules), but given that a Venture can mine about 500-700k ISK worth of ore per full cargohold, this money is soon earned. There are three different mining barges, each with a different focus (see table below).
The last word in mining ships are the exhumers (Tech II variants of the mining barges). These ships require many more skills to fly, and are even more expensive, but have even greater mining yield, cargohold space and/or tank than the mining barges.
Before the Retribution expansions, players often used cruisers or battleships as mining ships, but these ships are no longer competitive with mining barges and exhumers.
Haulers and support ships
A hauler's purpose is to take the ore that has been mined from a mining ship and transport it back to a refining station or to the market. Hauling is normally done in an industrial or a freighter.
Finally, a mining support ship can either come in the form of a security detail against rats and players looking to steal ore, or as a ship designed to provide mining efficiency bonuses. The ultimate mining support ships are the Orca and Rorqual, of which only the Orca can enter high-security space and fit through normal stargates.
Ship Type | Ship | Use |
Frigate | Venture | Low yield, tank and ore hold compared to specialized ship. Greater agility and speed. Only ship in the game with a gas harvesting bonus. Is cheap and takes minimal training. |
Mining Barge | Procurer | Specializes in defense (shield tank). |
Retriever | Specializes in ore hold capacity. | |
Covetor | Specializes in ore yield. | |
Exhumer | Skiff | Specializes in defence (shield tank). |
Mackinaw | Specializes in ore hold capacity. | |
Hulk | Specializes in ore yield. | |
Support | Command Ships | Can fit gang assist modules and provide security. |
Industrial Command | Orca | Bonuses towards gang link modules, has considerable cargo room, can fly in high-sec. |
Capital Industrial | Rorqual | Capital ship, bonuses towards gang link modules, can compress ore in cargohold (vastly increasing capacity). |
Ship | Ore Hold | Mining Cycles | Cargohold | Hit Points | EHP | Veldspar/hr (Orca bonus) |
Venture | 5000 | 2 | 50 | 600 | 827 | 520800 |
Hulk | 8,500 | 1 | 350 | 6,000 | 8,713 | 1,739,139 |
Covetor | 7,000 | 1 | 350 | 4,500 | 5,771 | 1,578,043 |
Mackinaw | 35,000 | 6 | 450 | 8,000 | 11,625 | 1,505059 |
Retriever | 27,500 | 5 | 450 | 6,000 | 7,691 | 1,433,390 |
Skiff | 15,000 | 3 | 350 | 19,625 | 29,091 | 1,380,788 |
Procurer | 12,000 | 2 | 350 | 18,000 | 23,252 | 1,315,038 |
ORE Basic Ship and Skill Guide has more details on these ships, as well as recommended fittings.
Basic skills
- Mining (1x): +5% mining yield per level.
- Astrogeology (3x): +5% mining yield per level; requires Mining IV.
These skills are the bread and butter of any miner and should be trained up to level IV reasonably quickly (primarily for the increased mining yield, but Mining IV in particular is a prerequisite to many other mining-related skills).
Specialty mining skills
- Ice Harvesting (1x): Required for Ice Mining. 5% reduction in cycle time per level.
- Gas Cloud Harvesting (1x): Required for Gas Cloud Mining. Allows use of one gas cloud harvester per level. Note that the skillbook is very expensive (about 20-30M ISK)!
These skills are only relevant if you want to expand from asteroid mining to gas cloud and ice mining.
Spaceship command skills
- Mining Frigate (2x): Needed for the Venture
- Mining Barge (4x): Needed for the Procurer, Retriever, and Covetor
- Exhumers (5x): Needed for the Skiff, Mackinaw, and Hulk
- Industrial Command Ships (8x): Needed for the Orca
- Capital Industrial Ships (12x): Needed for the Rorqual
In addition to letting you fly the abovementioned ships (which only needs level I), training higher ranks of these skills greatly enhances their respective ships. For instance, the Venture gains +5% mining yield per level of the Mining Frigate skill - which is on top of the bonuses provided by Mining and Astrogeology! So if you've found a ship you like, train the corresponding spaceship command skill to make it even better.
Fitting skills
- CPU Management (1x): +5% CPU output per level.
- Electronics Upgrades (2x): Required for fitting and using co-processors. Requires CPU Management II.
- Mining Upgrades (4x): Required for fitting and using Mining Upgrades. Requires Mining III.
- Jury Rigging (2x): Required for fitting rigs.
- Drones Rigging (3x): Required for fitting mining drone augmentor rigs (requires Jury Rigging III).
As mining lasers and mining upgrades are CPU-hungry, training CPU Management will make it easier to fit your ship. If you are still short on CPU, Electronics Upgrades allow you to fit co-processor modules (which increase your ship's CPU further). Mining upgrade modules increase your mining yield, while drone augmentor rigs increase the yield of mining drones.
Tanking skills
- Power Grid Management (1x): +5% powergrid output per level.
- Shield Operation (1x): 5% reduction in shield recharge time. Requires Power Grid Management I.
- Shield Upgrades (2x): Required to fit shield upgrade modules (shield extenders and resistance amplifiers). Requires Power Grid Management II
- Tactical Shield Manipulation: Required to fit shield hardeners. Requires Power Grid Management III.
- Shield Management (3x): +5% shield capacity per level. Requires Power Grid Management III.
- Shield Rigging (3x): Required for fitting shield rigs. Requires Jury Rigging III.
- Hull Upgrades (2x): Required for fitting damage controls.
All the mining ships are shield tanked, so shield tanking skills are useful to make them less vulnerable to ganking. Power Grid Management is the foundation skill, and should be trained to at least level III to make fitting easier. Then, Shield Upgrades and Shield Management should be trained, to not only increase your ship's shield strength, but also to allow you to fit shield upgrade modules. Hull Upgrades is needed for the always-useful damage control module. The other skills on this list have a lower priority, but come in handy as the higher-tier mining ships greatly benefit from a strong tank.
Drone skills
- Drones (1x): Increases number of drones in space by 1 per level, for a maximum of five drones in space at level V.
- Drone Interfacing (5x): Increases drone damage and mining drone yield by 20% per level. Requires Drones V.
- Mining Drone Operation (2x): Increases mining drone yield by 5% per level. Requires Drones I.
- Electronic Warfare Drone Interfacing (5x): Allows use of electronic warfare drones. Requires Drones V.
- Scout Drone Operation (1x). Allows for the operation of light and medium drones. Requires Drones I.
- Amarr Drone Specialization (5x), Caldari Drone Specialization (5x), Gallente Drone Specialization (5x), or Minmatar Drone Specialization (5x): Allows the use of Tech II drones. Requires Drones V.
Mining ships use drones both for defence and increased mining yield. The Drones skill is the foundation skill, and should be eventually trained up to V (once you start flying Exhumers it's highly recommended, and valuable even before). To use drones defensively, train up Scout Drone Operation, whilst mining drones need Mining Drone Operation. Drone Interfacing is somewhat of a long train, but even getting it to level IV makes a big difference in how effective your drones are. Electronic Warfare Drone Interfacing is only needed if you plan to use ECM drones, and the drone specialisation skills are needed when you start using Tech II drones. For more details on how drones work, see drones.
Leadership skills
- Leadership (1x), Wing Command (8x), and Fleet Command (12x): Increases the number of people you can give mining bonuses to.
- Mining Foreman (2x): Increases the mining yield of your boosted fleet members by 2% per level. Requires Leadership I.
- Mining Director: Increases the effectiveness of Mining Foreman link modules (ie, Orca boosts) by 20% per level. Requires Mining Foreman V.
- Warfare Link Specialist (6x): Increases the effectiveness of Mining Foreman link modules by 10% per level. Level V grants the use of Command Processors, which allow more ships to fit more than one Warfare Link. Requires Leadership V.
These skills become necessary once you start flying Orcas or Rorquals, and want to run mining fleets (and provide mining boosts to your fleet members). For more details on how fleets and warfare links work, see fleet leadership and warfare links.
Mining strategies
When you warp to an asteroid belt, you will land in the middle of a semicircle of asteroids about 50 km in diameter. Since the (unboosted) range of mining lasers is only 10 km (15 km for strip miners), you will then need to fly closer to your target asteroid in order to mine it - and mining ships are not particularly known for their speed. You can cut down on this travel time by using bookmarks, which allow you to warp directly next to an asteroid, and start mining immediately. If you're using mining drones, it's particularly important to be close to your target asteroid, as the drones have to otherwise spend a lot of time travelling back and forth between your ship and the asteroid.
It can be helpful to create bookmarks in the asteroid belts you mine in frequently. While there are many different approaches to creating these bookmarks, the picture on the right shows a simple example: warp to an asteroid belt in a fast ship (e.g. a shuttle or a frigate), and create three bookmarks along the perimeter of the belt. Position them in such a way that most of the belt is within 15 km (the range of a strip miner) of any of the three bookmarks. Then, switch to your mining ship, and warp directly to one of the three bookmarks. You will then have a large selection of asteroids within range of your lasers, and be able to efficiently use mining drones on the closest ones. If a part of the belt is depleted, warp to a nearby celestial (e.g. a planet) and then warp back to one of the other bookmarks in the belt.
Survey scanner
The survey scanner (a mid-slot module) is a very useful tool for any asteroid miner, as it shows how much ore each asteroid in the vicinity contains. This is important, as asteroid mining modules (mining lasers and strip miners) will always complete an entire cycle (60s for mining lasers, 180s for strip miners), irrespective of how much ore is actually left in the asteroid.
For instance, say you are mining an asteroid which contains 200 units of Veldspar (Veldspar has a volume of 0.1 m3 per unit, so this asteroid contains 20 m3 of Veldspar). Your Mining Laser I has a yield of (say) 100 m3/min, and a cycle time of 60 seconds. Even though there are only 20 m3 of Veldspar left in the asteroid, the module will complete its entire 60 second cycle before shutting off (with a message saying "the asteroid is depleted") - but those those 60 seconds of mining only yielded 20 m3 of ore (instead 100 m3)! The problem becomes even worse when using strip miners, as they have a much higher yield and a cycle time three times as long - which can result in a lot of wasted time if you're mining asteroids that don't contain much ore.
Therefore, when mining, refresh the survey scanner window from time to time (it does not refresh automatically, you need to reactivate the survey scanner module) to check whether the asteroid(s) you are mining are close to depletion. If an asteroid is almost empty, you can "short-cycle" your mining laser (i.e. turn it off manually before it completes its full cycle, by clicking on it) to mine out the last dregs of ore before moving on to another asteroid. Note that each time you activate your mining laser it takes energy from your ship's capacitor; activate it too often and you might empty your capacitor and have to wait a moment for it to recharge.
You can target asteroids directly from the survey scanner window (much like the asteroids in the overview); this can be a useful shortcut to help you mine the particular asteroid you're interested in. Unfortunately, there is no indication in the survey scanner window of which asteroids you are currently targeting (or are mining).
Solo mining
There are several methods commonly used in mining, the most basic only requires one account and can be run by very low skilled players, while the most advanced will require multiple players all performing separate tasks in order to be effective.
Cargohold mining
The most basic way to mine is to fill the ore hold of a ship full of ore and then return to a station to drop it off. Its advantages are that it requires only one character, can be done at very low skill levels and is completely theft-proof. Its disadvantage is that the time you spend travelling to and from a station is wasted (i.e. not spent mining) - however, most mining ships (with the notable exception of the Covetor and the Hulk) have large enough ore holds that they do not need to return frequently to a station to unload.
As an example: An average-skilled miner flying a Venture can mine about 250 m3/min of ore, which is enough to fill the Venture's ore hold (5000 m3) in about 20 minutes. Given that the Venture aligns and warps like a frigate, round trips to a station will take only a minute or two, so very little time is lost. A highly-skilled miner flying a Hulk, on the other hand, can mine about 1600 m3/min of ore, which will fill the Hulk's ore bay (8500 m3) in about 5 minutes, requiring frequent return trips to a station (made longer by the slow align time and warp speed of the Hulk).
(Note: Prior to the Retribution expansion, cargohold mining was very unprofitable, as the cargoholds of non-industrial ships were so small that they filled up too rapidly. However, with the introduction of dedicated ore holds on all mining ships, this is no longer the case.)
Jetcan mining
Players can jettison items from their cargohold into space, which results in a cargo container (more commonly called a "jetcan" or just a "can") forming within 2,500m of the ship. This jettisoned container has a volume capacity of 27,500 m3. Miners can take advantage of this capacity by transferring the ore in their cargohold into the jetcan. Typically a player will fill a jetcan with ore, and then (once the jetcan is full) swap to a ship with a larger cargohold (most often an industrial ship) and haul the ore to a nearby station.
If you're flying a mining ship with an ore hold that's considerably smaller than a jetcan (such as a Venture (5000 m3 ore hold) or a Covetor (8000 m3 ore hold)), this method can increase your efficiency, as you can spend more time mining and less time hauling.
However, jetcans only have a lifespan of 2 hours and they are not secure, meaning anyone can open and remove items from a jetcan. This is a common form of theft and griefing in the game, where a player will "flip" a jetcan either to steal the ore or to induce a fight without CONCORD intervention. While it's possible way to combat this by using secure containers (which can be programmed with a password), the largest these (the giant secure container, often called a GSC) can only hold 3,900 m3 of ore, which is less than the ore hold on even the smallest mining ship.
As nearly all mining ships have ore holds which are as large or larger than a jetcan (in addition to the time lost in changing ships and the risk of getting your ore stolen), using jetcans is probably not worth your time. They do, however, come in very handy if you're mining with two accounts (see below).
GSC mining
The Giant Secure Container method of mining lets you solo mine into secure containers that have been anchored and password protected. You can then pick them up later (or have a friend pick them up for you). You need the following:
- Trained Anchoring I
- One or more secure containers (bought from the market); preferably Giant Secure Containers (the largest type)
- A system with a security rating of 0.8 or below (as you cannot anchor containers in 0.9 and 1.0 systems)
- Take a hauler and the secure containers to where you want to mine. Deploy the container about 5000 meters away from any object.
- Right-click the container in space, anchor it and then set the password. If you don't do this step your container can be looted and/or will disappear during the next downtime.
- As you mine, move the ore from your ship to the container. The containers will disappear 30 days after the last use.
- An alternative is to set up a container "nest": fly at least 150 km from a belt, anchor the container(s) there, and bookmark their location. This way, you can mine, warp to the containers, drop off the ore, warp back to the belt and continue mining.
As with jetcan mining, the large ore holds of most mining ships makes GSC mining not worthwhile for most miners.
Dual account mining
If you have two Eve accounts, you can multibox them (i.e. play them on one computer simultaneously). One of these can mine while the other ones flies a hauler to drop the mined ore at a nearby station. The miner transfers the mined ore into a jetcan or a GSC (see above) which is then picked up by the hauler. This way, the miner can mine non-stop, obtaining more ore. Eventually, the hauler character could train towards an Orca (to provide mining boosts to the miner, further increasing yield), while the miner character is free to train and fly ships like the Hulk, which have very high mining yield but small ore holds.
See Creating an Alt Hauler and Creating an Alt Miner for tips on creating these alt characters.
Cooperative mining
Of the professions in Eve, mining and production are most impacted by the player's efficiency. For miners, it's all about mining. Time spent hauling, killing rats, moving cans or dealing with ore thieves, can flippers and other flavors of griefers is time not spent making little rocks out of big 'roids. Anything that can be done to eliminate or minimize the impact of all of those other factors means more little rocks in the hold, which means a fatter wallet.
A properly designed and staffed co-operative mining op allows miners to spend their time doing what they do best: mining. It also allows the miners to benefit from mining yield bonuses available only to members of a group. These bonuses can add an additional 10% or more to a miner's yield. If the miners are mining, then someone has to haul the little rocks to the station. If the op is in lower sec regions, something other than drones may be needed to protect the miners from rats, not to mention thieves and assorted other scoundrels. Those protection activities will result in a second "mining" operation as the wrecks are looted and salvaged for the benefit of the op participants.
Our theoretical op has miners, haulers, damage dealers and salvagers; a fairly broad slice of the possible professions in Eve! Mining ops are generally more relaxed than combat fleet ops, co-operative mission running or complex clearing. Chat and/or Mumble deal with a wider variety of topics and separating the required tasks to specialists provides everyone time to participate in the conversations. Not only does this atmosphere provide a social element of connection with the other members, it lets the "teaching" move beyond mining to cover a myriad of subjects.
Mining booster fleets (BYOC)
The simplest mining fleet would be the equivalent of a spider mission fleet, in that each miner does his/her own thing while being supplied with a fleet booster which will improve everyone's yield, miner range, miner cycle time, and/or miner capacitor use (note that boosters only work within the same system). These fleets are generally a "join and leave as you want" situation, with no extra services (eg hauling, protection from rats etc) provided. "BYOC" stands for "bring your own can", meaning it's your responsibility to bring the ore you mine to a station.
It's generally suggested that you avoid mining the same asteroid as another fleet member (as there is a risk that one of you wastes a mining cycle if the asteroid depletes halfway through), although if you really want that particular asteroid you can always ask nicely if you can have it. There is usually no central belt for everyone to be working on at once, but it can be a majestic sight to see a fleet of barges and exhumers emptying a belt efficiently.
Mining fleets
- Main article: Mining Op
The next type of fleet is more structured. A standard mining fleet in high security space generally includes a mix of mining barges, exhumers, and haulers (industrials). The miners will work on a single belt constantly, and transfer the ore they mine into a jetcan. The haulers will ferry the resources from space to a station. This makes for increased proficiency as the mining lasers never need to stop, unless you need to switch belts. Fleet boosters are usually present here as well, and an Orca may be used instead of a jetcan. Mining fleets in low-sec will also include combat ships to protect the fleet against rats and hostile players.
Splitting the ISK
Since all the ore is combined into a single pot (and often refined and sold later), you need to agree on a method of splitting the proceeds from the mining fleet between the participants. Since a fleet often includes not only miners with different skill levels flying different ships, but also fleet boosters, haulers, combat ships etc, the simplest way to split the ISK proceeds is to allocate them based on time spent in the fleet; however, this might discourage larger ships from joining the fleet. Scrapyard's Mining Op Worksheet can accomodate several different methods of weighing the contributions of fleet members. Whichever way you choose, make sure that the method of splitting the ISK is agreed upon by the fleet before the mining op starts.
Mining fleets in the Uni
Periodically, the Uni will undertake a large-scale, long-duration operation in a system other than Aldrat. These expeditions are planned and announced several weeks in advance to allow for adjustment of training schedules, acquisition of desired ships and fittings and research/scouting of the target system and surrounding space. Because of the travel involved and the length of planned stay, expedition locations generally provide opportunities for mission/complex running as well.
The Expedition Boss for a particular expedition will publish the rules for that expedition, including record keeping requirements for any Common Can portions, rules for interaction with locals and what happens to the ore mined.
Such fleets are often run to donate minerals to the University, with the added bonus of attempting to break the record for the previous donation fleet.
When completing a mining operation, you should consider posting your results here: Past Mining Fleet Results

LOVE This Basket!!!
By Sandy64
from Chico area, CA
About Me Long-time Pet Owner
Best Uses
Comments about Basket Small Pet Carrier Red:
This is the cutest pet carrier I have ever seen. People are always stopping me to ask where I got it. My Bengal cat goes everywhere with us, we race sprint cars and he goes to the races with us in it. There is so much ventilation and "viewing" area that he is perfectly happy in it. He can see us and everything and we can see him easily. It is much lighter than the "plastic" ones and much easier to carry! I just love this carrier!!!!!
Such a cute basket
By Rachel the sublady
from Allegan, MI
About Me New Pet Owner
We love this basket, we carry our 4 pound shih tzu in it when going to my parents house or taking her in the car with us. She really loves this basket and will even get in it to sleep when we are at home. I would definitely recommend this basket to other people, but if your dog is much bigger than ours it wouldn't fit too well.

When I was 7 or 8, my aunt had me go to a friend of hers who crocheted. She taught me the basics of crocheting. I've been doing simple patterns ever since. Now, I'm trying to expand my knowledge past scarves, afghans and dishcloths. Craftsy is definitely helping me go in that direction!!

Prince Precision Equipe Midplus 95 question
I see there are 2 different makes of the Prince Precision Equipe Midplus. One says "Straight Beam" on the racquet head, while the other version says "Straight Shaft". The throat with the "Straight Beam" also feels glossier. Other than that, they look the same. Is there any real difference between the 2?
BTW, I don't think this is as much a clone of the Wilson PSC 6.1 as it's supposed to be. It seems stiffer and has a 16x19 pattern vs 16x18 of the PSC, with the 16x19 of the Prince producing noticeably better control. I haven't yet tried the 18x20 PSC, so would like to see if that compares better. |
I don't imagine the Wilson had a many metal weights rattling around in the handle ;). Quite a pain as I had ONE customer with at least 6 noisy handles on her Equipes :(
