Top image of constellation Orion via jerm1386 on Flickr
At this time of year, the constellation Orion the Hunter dominates the southeastern sky in early evening, as seen from latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere. The featured photo at top shows how Orion appears at early evening at mid-northern latitudes. Notice its short, straight row of three medium-bright stars. These stars represent Orion's Belt.
On old sky maps, Orion is holding up a shield, fending off the constellation Taurus the Bull, which rose earlier.
In the lore of the sky, Orion is also connected to the constellation Scorpius the Scorpion, which – at this time of year – can be found rising in the southeast shortly before dawn. Tomorrow morning, on Saturday, January 17, the waning crescent moon will be close to Antares, the Scorpion's brightest star.
By the end of January or in early February, as darkness ebbs into dawn, you might even catch the two stars marking the Scorpion's stinger over the southwest horizon. These stars – Shaula and Lesath – rise about four minutes earlier each day, so although you'll likely to miss these tomorrow, you should be able to view the entire Scorpion just before dawn in a week or two.
So Orion is up in the evening now, and Scorpius is up before dawn. Next summer, when Orion is up before dawn, Scorpius will be out in the evening. Orion and Scorpius never appear in the sky at the same time.
Legend has it that Orion the Hunter was very vain. He boasted that no animal on Earth could kill him. But the Scorpion did sting Orion, and the Hunter died of its poison. Now, according to this ancient myth, the bitter hatred between these two constellations is so great that they can never been seen in the sky simultaneously.
We today have a different interpretation of the fact that Orion and Scorpion are never in the sky together. Scorpius is located in the direction toward the center of our Milky Way galaxy. Orion is located in the opposite direction. They're never in the sky at once simply because they're located in opposite directions in space, as seen from Earth.

Volkswagen adding R-Line trim to Touareg, Tiguan for 2014
by Jeffrey N. Ross (RSS feed) on Jan 11th, 2013 at 3:45PM
Volkswagen introduced its aggressive R-Line appearance package on the CC and Beetle last year, but later this year, this treatment will also be applied to VW's crossovers, the Tiguan and Touareg. Both sporty-looking utility vehicles will be unveiled next week at the Detroit Auto Show. The 2014 Tiguan R-Line comes standard with bi-xenon headlights and LED daytime running lights, and the package adds 19-inch wheels, grey fender extensions, body-color side skirts and a liftgate spoiler. Inside, the R-Line adds a flat-bottom sport steering wheel with paddle shifters, a black headliner and... Read More

The most stress-free way (for you and the bees) to remove bees from a super! This board is placed between the supers and the brood chamber. The bees can easily leave the supers but cannot find their way back in. Comes fully assembled.
How it works: Bees navigate according to a very strict set of rules. When a bee reaches an obstruction (such as a wall), it will always travel to the right and follow that obstruction till it can go no further. It will never go left. In the case of the Triangle Escape Board, it is easy for the bees to leave - there are three convenient exits. However, they are unable to get back in - and so your Super will soon be empty of bees.
Hint: We advise you to not leave the Escape Board on any longer than 24 hours or the bees may find their way back in.
Hint: Make certain there are no holes in your supers through which the bees could reenter the hive.
Dimensions: 20" x 14" x 1-1/2"

Warren Buffett's Latest Bet on America Is GM
DETROIT ( TheStreet) -- Warren Buffett, famous for his bets on the U.S. economy and eternal optimism about this country's future, has become a buyer of one of the nation's biggest market symbols, auto maker GM (GM).
Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B) disclosed in its quarterly portfolio holdings filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday afternoon that it bought 10 million shares of GM during the quarter, the first time Buffett's company has bought into the automaker since it emerged from bankruptcy in 2009. Berkshire's stake, which was small enough to have been a portfolio selection made by one of Buffett's two recent hedge fund manager hires -- Todd Combs and Ted Weschler -- was valued at $256.5 million as of March 31, but was worth $214 million at Tuesday's close.
GM comprised a small fraction of the firm's $75 billion in holdings at the end of the first quarter, but it does represent Buffett's only play on the U.S. auto industry. Berkshire's only other U.S. transportation stock holding is UPS (UPS): the firm owns 1.4 million shares valued at $115 million.
Buffett has had for several years a large stake in Chinese automaker BYD, known primarily for its electric car lineup. That big auto bet, originally recommended by Buffett right hand man and Berkshire chief operating officer Charlie Munger, recently turned somewhat sour, as BYD's profit declined precipitously in 2011 and early this year.GM has the biggest market share in the world's two biggest auto markets, China and the U.S. So far this year, GM stock is up 2%, while Ford (F) stock is down 7%. While U.S. auto sales have been rising for three years, after hitting a 27-year low in 2009, sales are slumping badly in Europe and growth in China has slowed. >>View Warren Buffett's Portfolio In the first quarter, GM beat estimates, earning $1.6 billion or 93 cents a share excluding items, while analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters had estimated 85 cents. Nevertheless, S&P Capital IQ analyst Efraim Levy downgraded his rating from strong buy to buy and reduced his full-year estimate to $3.94 from $4.29. "We find GM's valuation attractive, but near-term challenges limit our enthusiasm," Levy wrote. Buffett is closely associated with the Obama administration's economic policies. Obama agreed to lend bankrupt GM money so that it could emerge as a lower-cost, better run company at a time when global auto sales were about to begin a rebound. The auto bailout has become fodder for a campaign trail

Ontario has appointed George Gritziotis as the province's first Chief Prevention Officer as part of its commitment to workplace health and safety.
Ontario will target hazards affecting clean air in underground mines across the province in October 2011. Mining inspectors will check underground ventilation and diesel equipment to ensure mine workers have an adequate supply of clean air.
Earlier this year, the ministry sought input from representatives and specialists from various industries and sectors to shape and improve our workplace health and safety strategy. The consultations were popular, attracting twice as many attendees as the previous year. Read about what was discussed and key issues that were identified.
Natural disasters can happen at any time, anywhere. In the event of a tornado, flood or other emergencies, Ontario's employers and employees have duties and rights under the law. Can I require employees to take vacation days because of a disaster? What are the responsibilities regarding the safety of my employees? I came to work, but my employer sent me home – am I entitled to any compensation? Learn the answers to these – and more – in our Natural Disaster FAQs.
Ontario's health and safety associations offer a range of training services to help their clients stay healthy and safe at the workplace. Visit the Health & Safety Ontario page, and choose the relevant association to learn more about their training services.

- great product
Great Product - fit and worked as an original piece.
Reviewed by Tom S (Posted on 10/16/13)
- Works great!
I ordered this to replace the helmet mount that originally came with the Surefire Helmet Light. I utilize the helmet light on the ACH. This helmet mount is a little bulkier on the side of your helmet, but I didn't mind it and I actually like it better. It goes on and comes off the helmet easily and It seems to be more durably made than the helmet mount that came with the light. The mount works great and performs as described. I would definitely recommend as a replacement for your original mount.

The HLM-01-TN ratchet mount for SureFire Helmet Lights attaches securely to the right or left side rim of nearly any helmet—including military ACH, LWH, MICH, and PASGT helmets. The mount allows a Helmet Light to be quickly clipped on or removed, and also allows the attached Helmet Light to be rotated 360 degrees. The Ratchet Mount is easily removable for transfer to other helmets.

Adam Payerl
Kitchener Ontario
Eligible for draft:
Free agent signing, 2012
218 lbs.
Prospect Talent Score
Probability of Success
2008-09: Adam Payerl skated in all 68 games for the OHL's Barrie Colts in his second season after seeing limited ice time in 47 games in 2007-08. He scored 7 goals with 10 assists and was minus-16 with 59 penalty minutes. The Colts made the OHL playoffs; finishing third in the Central Division. Payerl was minus-three with 1 assist and 8 penalty minutes in the five game series against Mississauga St. Michael's. Payerl was ranked 191st amongst North American skaters in Central Scouting's rankings prior to the 2009 NHL Draft but was not drafted.
2009-10: Obtained by Belleville in a trade with Barrie just prior to the start of the OHL season, Payerl was the second-leading scorer among Bulls forward for a team that struggled to score goals and finished with the league's second-worst record. Playing in 67 of 68 games, he had 17 goals with 26 assists and was minus-23 with 39 penalty minutes. Seven of his goals were scored on the Bulls' power play.
2010-11: Payerl added an enforcer role and physical play to his game in his second season with Belleville. Skating in 63 games for the Bulls, he scored 10 goals with 19 assists and was third on the team with 79 penalty minutes; finishing the year minus-18. Belleville made the playoffs despite finishing with the OHL's third-worst record; finishing three points ahead of Peterborough in the East Division. Payerl was minus-three with no points nor penalty minutes in the four-game series with Mississauga St. Michael's.
2011-12: Payerl earned an invitation to Columbus Blue Jackets' main camp after skating for the Blue Jackets' squad in the Traverse City Prospects Tournament. Following camp he returned to Belleville for an overage OHL season. He made his pro debut at the end of the season after signing a three-year entry-level contract with Pittsburgh, appearing in two games with the Penguins' AHL affiliate Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. He had 1 assist with 2 penalty minutes in his brief AHL stint. Payerl was the third-leading scorer for Belleville while leading the Bulls in penalty minutes (106). He scored 22 goals with 25 assists and was plus-two in 61 games. In Belleville's six-game playoff series with the Ottawa 67's he scored 1 goal with 2 assists and was minus-three with 9 penalty minutes.
2012-13: Payerl appeared in 44 regular season games and all 15 playoff contests for Pittsburgh's AHL affiliate in Wilkes-Barre/Scranton in his first pro season. He scored 3 goal with 7 assists and had an even plus minus with 53 penalty minutes as the Penguins finished third in the AHL's East Division. The Penguins reached the Eastern Conference finals and Payerl scored 2 goals with 1 assist and was -1 with 13 penalty minutes in the playoffs. He also played four games for Wheeling in the ECHL; scoring 1 goal and finishing +1 with 15 penalty minutes.
Talent Analysis
An undrafted forward with considerable size, Adam Payerl is a forward who is known for his willingness to hit, and hit often. He possesses a long reach and strong frame which he can use to effectively protect the puck along the boards and in the corners. Given his limited offensive abilities, Payerl seems destined for a fourth-line role, where he can play hard on the forecheck, create energy, and be used in defensive roles.
Payerl will play the 2013-14 season in the AHL.

do you prefer?
Nicholai or Nikolai?
There are reasons I like both spellings, but I want to see what everyone thinks by looking at it and if there's any particular reason why, first.
Bonus: Does Seamus sound okay with the name Yana (future DD name) or is that just a terrible mix? TIA!
ETA: Asking fellow name nerds, I have a hunch as to what the majority of answers will be But we shall see.
ETA 2: Crap! I forgot to mention pronunciation. It should be pronounced nee-kah-LIE. I'm worried a lot of people will pronounce it wrong throughout his life and say nick-ah-lie. Thoughts?
With a K
I think Seamus sounds terrible with Yana, but I'm not one to think sibling names have to go together. If you love them, use them.
I think Nikolai has a better chance of being pronounced "nee" rather than "nick." The K sort of alerts an English-speaker that it's different from Nicholas.
Nikolai and Yana sound great together; Seamus and Yana don't match well, but that's not always the most important consideration.
Thanks for the input, ladies!
DH and I have talked about the spelling before and I think we were leaning toward Nicholai because I had read on a couple sites that was the original spelling. But looking into it again, a lot say that Nikolai is the accepted spelling. People I've asked outside of TB seem to prefer Nicholai - I imagine due to it being closer to Nicholas and that's what people are used to.
Anyway, Nikolai seems to make the most sense, especially for the pronunciation. And the nicknames for it just more sense with this spelling. Now to get DH to agree!

The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures and expanding profit margins. However, as a counter to these strengths, we find that the stock has had a generally disappointing performance in the past year."

Mario Vargas Llosa
"Reading good literature is an experience of pleasure… but it is also an experience of learning what and how we are, in our human integrity and our human imperfection, with our actions, our dreams, and our ghosts, alone and in relationships that link us to others, in our public image and in the secret recesses of our consciousness."
— Mario Vargas Llosa
The Peruvian writer Mario Vargas Llosa – novelist, critic, journalist, screenwriter, and essayist – is the recipient of the 2010 Nobel Prize in Literature as well as almost every other literary award.

The Walking Dead
Season 4, Episode 5
Time : 9:00 PM
Date : 10-11-2013
Network : AMC
The Walking Dead 4X5 : The world we knew is gone. An epidemic of apocalyptic proportions has swept the globe causing the dead to rise and feed on the living. In a matter of months society has crumbled. In a world ruled by the dead, we are forced to finally start living. Based on a comic book series of the same name by Robert Kirkman, this AMC project focuses on the world after a zombie apocalypse. The series follows a police officer, Rick Grimes, who wakes up from a coma to find the world ravaged with zombies. Looking for his family, he and a group of survivors attempt to battle against the zombies in order to stay alive. The Walking Dead is an epic, edge-of-your-seat drama where personal struggles are magnified against a backdrop of moment-to-moment survival. A survivalist story at its core, the series explores how the living are changed by the overwhelming realization that those who survive can be far more dangerous than the mindless walkers roaming the earth. They themselves have become the walking dead.

Bizarre watch design looks like a jet engine on your wrist
Thursday, July 22, 2010 - 1:48am
When wearing an expensive Rolex simply doesn't transmit the machismo message adequately, we give you the Horological Machine No4 Thunderbolt, aka the wrist rocket!
Designed by Maximilian Büsser, housed in brushed titanium and sapphire, the design of the Swiss made aeronautical watch was actually inspired by the aesthetics of jet engines. According to the maker, there are only 10 left for sale this year, but at $158,000 a piece, don't expect iPhone-like lines to form for this pricey device.

Ferris Students Gain Hands-On Learning Experience at Wine Festival
The Grand Rapids International Wine & Food Festival, a preholiday food and wine expo, hosted some 10,000-plus visitors, making it the largest food and wine festival in Michigan, and one of the premier wine and food festivals in the Midwest, The Oakland Press reports. More than 100 wineries from around the world provided samples of nearly 1,000 assorted wines, and chefs from 10 of Grand Rapids' top restaurants prepared and served samples of their culinary specialties. Not only was the Grand Rapids International Wine & Food Festival a great opportunity to enjoy food, wine and handcrafted beers, it also provided a hands-on educational experience for Ferris State University students enrolled in the Sports, Entertainment and Hospitality Management programs. FSU partnered with show producers to give 150 students the opportunity to provide pouring services for the festival. But, what was even more impressive was the way in which the vendors partnered with these students to share product information to help students showcase their products. Last year, an FSU student pourer who worked the booths for two days was offered a summer internship and later invitation for full-time employment after graduation.

Junior Tina Muir (St. Albans, United Kingdom) of the Ferris State University women's cross country team was recognized as the United States Track and Field/Cross Country Coaches Association Division II Midwest Region Women's "Athlete of the Year" following her championship performance in the 2009 NCAA-II Midwest Regional Championships held in Kenosha, Wisc., reports LexisNexis News.

Muir clocked 21:33.2 in winning the region's individual title as she finished nearly 11 seconds ahead of second-place finisher Mary Ballinger of Southern Indiana. The women's field included 134 runners. Muir's victory represented her fifth individual title in as many races this season.

Revisiting an old favorite: Leftover Pot Roast Bolognese
I've now made this dish (and blogged it) twice; in 2005 and in 2006. And tonight I made it again, using leftover Brisket from our Sunday night Hanukkah dinner. I almost skipped it and wasted all of the leftovers. I didn't leave work until 6pm, which meant I didn't get home until 6:30 or so (after a stop at Walgreen's for Hanukkah candles, because we somehow ran out). But... I persevered. And wonder nanny Sammy gave the kids appetizers, so they weren't completely insane with hunger.
Each time I make this dish, I riff on it more and more. Tonight, I didn't use any wine or stock. I used a can of tomato sauce instead of chopped tomatoes. AND, I used sour cream instead of heavy cream, because that's what I had in the house. If you use sour cream as well, remember to temper it a bit so that it doesn't curdle and get all clumpy. To do that, spoon out some of the hot liquid into a small bowl. Add the sour cream and mix it well. Then, add that mixture to the pan.
Tonight we had the sauce over egg noodles instead of spaghetti. (the picture above is from 2006)

Documents: 3 men had role in Vt. woman's killingTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS | May 22,2013AP FILE PHOTO
This undated file identification photo released Sept. 12, 2010, by Vermont State Police shows Pat O'Hagan, 78, of Sheffield. Hagan disappeared from her home in September 2010. Her body was found nearly a month later by hunters in a remote area 10 miles away.BURLINGTON — Three men have been implicated in the September 2010 killing of a 78-year-old grandmother during a botched robbery at her home during which she was sexually assaulted before being shot in the head, say federal court documents filed in connection with another case.
No charges have been filed in connection with the killing of Mary "Pat" O'Hagan, who was missing for about three weeks before her body was found in Wheelock.
The suspects, who are related, provided different reasons for the killing, including robbery and that O'Hagan had learned about methamphetamine being cooked at an abandoned house next door to her home, the federal court documents said.
The court documents say the three men — Richard E. Fletcher, 26; his brother, Keith J. Baird, 32; and Fletcher's cousin Michael Norrie, 22, all of Sheffield — have been implicated in the killing. All three are in federal or state custody on charges unrelated to the killing of O'Hagan.
"After a thorough investigation, Vermont authorities have concluded that Fletcher, accompanied by two male relatives, participated in the crime leading to the killing and disposal of the body," prosecutors wrote in a sentencing memorandum for Fletcher who is facing almost 16 years in prison on charges of sexual exploitation of a minor.
The Burlington Free Press reported none of the attorneys for the three men could be reached for comment.
Norrie was first publicly linked to the case in January 2011 when he made incriminating statements to federal agents investigating another case. The accusations against Fletcher and Baird became public Monday in documents submitted for Fletcher's upcoming sentencing.
State prosecutors have not said why no charges have been filed in connection with O'Hagan's death.
Assistant Vermont Attorney General Cindy Maguire, chief of the criminal division, said the standard for a criminal trial in state court and a federal sentencing is different.
"It is still a pending criminal investigation. We are not going to comment further with respect to the state's case," she said.MORE IN Vermont NewsBARRE Five New England states have agreed on a common method to compare education data from one...

The Hoge Veluwe
3 Views
Welcome to one of the largest undivided nature reserve in the Netherlands. Here you can spend hours wandering through the woods, heathlands, shifting sands and estates. The extensive natural areas are ideal for biking and walking. Permanent inhabitants of De Hoge Veluwe include wild boar, red deer, roe deer, mouflon sheep, foxes and numerous predatory birds.
Activities at De Veluwe
De Hoge Veluwe is located in the province of Gelderland and combines well with city trips and historical tours. Besides the larger cities of Arnhem, Apeldoorn and Zwolle, you can choose to visit the nearby Hanseatic cities, such as Doetinchem, Zutphen and Deventer. These beautiful settlements are packed with historical monuments and still breathe the charm and prosperity of the 14th and 15th centuries.
There are also plenty of other highlights in the vicinity of the Hoge Veluwe. For example the 300 year old Palace Het Loo; the breathtaking palace gardens and the beautiful interiors of this former royal palace can be admired.
Are you traveling with kids? Then the Apenheul a must! Nowhere else will you find so many different kinds of monkeys, and be allowed to come so close to them. Hold your belongings tightly because the monkeys are very curious.
To the west of the Veluwe there are lakes with sandy beaches, especially popular in the summer among families and water sport enthusiasts.
The cultural highlight of the Hoge Veluwe is deeply hidden in the woods- the Kröller-Müller Museum. Admire the collection of over ten thousand artifacts, including the largest private collection of Van Gogh paintings in the world and one of the finest sculpture gardens in Europe. It is not surprising that people come from all over the world to see the Kröller-Müller Museum.
Explore the Veluwe on a white bicycle
The Hoge Veluwe National Park covers 5,400 hectares of diverse landscapes. In order to explore this vast area, the park offers free white bicycles. With over 1600 kilometers of bicycle paths, there are an infinite variety of routes. For this part of the park, you need to purchase a ticket at one of the entrances to the park. There are parking lots where you can trade your car for a bike, and a visitor center where they will give you more information.

Republicans, Democrats – authoritarian collectivists generally – reflexively dismiss Libertarianism as "impractical" and "naive" in order to avoid discussing the validity of core Libertarian ideals – self ownership, non-aggression. They wave their hands and say, "it won't work."
But is this true?
One of the most tiresome objections to a free society – that is, to a society based on the Libertarian ideals of self-ownership and non-aggression – is that absent police, there would be no way to prevent people from running amok and abusing others; that a Lord of the Flies scenario would ensue, with the strong dominating the weak. There would be chaos, insecurity and vigilantism, they cry.
First, it is necessary (as Ayn Rand famously put it) to check one's premises. It is true that a Libertarian society – a free society – would not have any need for police. Police enforce laws. As most thoughtful people know, laws are not always just. Indeed, laws are more often not just. This hardly requires elaboration.
Moreover, we already suffer from chaos, abuse and vigilantism – routinely. Only it is not seen as such by most people because it is done under color of law. We face impenetrable ukase – and arbitrary enforcement. People are treated as presumptively criminal on the theory that "someone" might be a criminal. At every step, we face demands for submission – and are threatened with violent reprisals if we do not. We are absolutely not secure in our persons or our effects.
Even something as elementary as being free to travel unmolested is denied us.
The average person is done more real violence by the law – and by the police who enforce these laws – than by the theoretical (for the most part) harm that might by done them by lawbreakers – i.e., their fellow men, absent the law.
And absent police.
For Libertarians, on the other hand, there is only one law – non-aggression: Do no harm to others or their property – but otherwise, do as you wish. Jefferson styled this the pursuit of happiness.
If this principle became the conceptual basis of our proposed system, at a stroke, the entire clunking, clanking, impenetrable, arbitrary, vicious, mindless apparatus of "the law" – and law enforcement – including the Talmudic parsing of codes and regulations – would be done away with and replaced by the simple principle: Cause none harm. It is a principle almost anyone of normal intelligence can understand – and articulate. Either a given act did – or did not – hurt someone, or cause damage to their property. Simple. No doubt, this explains why lawyers such as those who constructed the long-con Constitution venerate their laws – and loathe the Libertarian's law.
The principle of cause no harm also implies its corollary: Go in peace. That is, if you've caused no harm to others, you ought to be free – have a right to be free – to go about your business in peace. To be left alone. And to have that right respected as inviolate.
But, cry the authoritarians, what about those who disrupt the peace?
Here they are manifestly disingenuous, because the majority of that which they revere in police work – that is, law enforcement – has little to do with keeping the peace and much to do with enforcing laws. It is true there are (and likely always will be) bad people in any society – including a free one. But there are far fewer genuinely bad people in any society – in the sense that they've caused harm to others, as opposed to "law breakers." In a Libertarian – that is, a free – society – probably two-thirds of the work that currently occupies police (and courts and prisons, etc.) would simply . . . disappear.
But let us take the authoritarian collectivists at their word and discuss the the Libertarian replacement for police, already hinted at above:
Peace keepers.
In any community larger than a small group, there will probably always be a need for such – if only to avoid the same sort of arbitrary violence we suffer under today (only meted out by random individuals at their whim rather than by specially costumed goons acting under "color of law").
As the term implies, their charge would be to keep the peace – but nothing more. To step in, for example, when one individual has harmed another – in order to prevent that individual from harming another (and to bring him to account for the harm he has already done).
There could be civil and criminal courts to arbitrate and adjudicate and – where necessary – make sure the scales are balanced. That miscreants are held accountable – but not cruelly or vengefully treated. That disputes are resolved, if not amicably, at least reasonably. It would not be perfect, of course – the straw man typically relied upon by authoritarian collectivists who of course never concede the endless imperfections of their system. But at least – being based on the principles of self-ownership and non-aggression – it would be more perfect than the existing system in that absent tangible evidence of having caused demonstrable harm (as opposed to violating a statute) no charges could be successfully pressed. If this were the rule rather than the exception probably 9 out of ten people would never have any interaction with the peacekeepers – beyond offering a friendly wave and a "hello, there!" once in awhile.
Most critically – and to answer the critics of practical Libertarianism – peacekeeping would not require compulsory taxes (which would of course violate the NAP) for its support.
