I'm completely new to this. My DGS will be 2 1/2 on Easter, my DGD will be 6 mos.
What is customary for grandparents to give their young grandchildren at Easter? Should I get them a small basket filled with age appropriate toys and a little candy, but not for the baby. The big baskets will come from Mom and Dad, but I'd like to get them something. Any ideas? |
Follow-Up Postings:
How about a cute easter or spring related book? Then a little stuffed animal or toy that relates to something in the book. Building a book collection for kids is a wonderful thing to do. Another tradition would be to buy them a new spring coat or jacket each year. When they are little you could include a small toy, as they get older a plastic egg with some money or a gift card. Kids love those. |
Les, their mom's a teacher and there are sooo many books I'm afraid to get one for fear they already have it! lol Here in OK. it will be getting warm around Easter. I do like the egg idea as they get older. |

I have 8 grands and they get a basket from us (grandparents) and then they get to hunt outside (inside in bad weather) for the eggs the Easterbunny leaves. I like to give books and always check with their mothers to make sure they don't have the ones I'm getting and they, too, have many, but they get read to nightly and they remember who gave them each book and also love books. If you go that route one to look at for the 2 1/2 yr old is "The Golden Egg" by A.J. Wood. It has lots of wonderful colored eggs and lift flaps and is just a really neat book. We have also given toys and little stuffed bunnies and chicks. Spring toys are great like sidewalk chalk or bubbles (gymboree makes the best bubbles). As you can tell, I get really excited about grandkids and holidays!! Hope you have fun. |
I love the idea of bubbles! And the flap book. Henry's just old enough to do the bubbles. And sidewalk chalk! Thanks! |
I ordered The Golden Egg (with flaps) from Barnes and Noble. I couldn't believe Amazon didn't sell it except for used books. There was another book by the same name which was tempting, but I like the flaps on this one. Both books got great reviews! |
As a mommy of 3, I have asked repeatedly for the grandparents to refrain from giving candy on Easter. What the Easter bunny brings is enough, and every year they get candy from the grandparents (frustrating). If you want to make a basket, books are always nice, can I recommend a book where the child can paint in it with water? The color is already on the page and needs to be spread around with plain water. Again from the point of view of a mom, bubbles for a 2 year old can be disastrous, they have these really nice spill proof bubble containers now, I would recommend them. Also I always liked getting spring clothes or summer clothes (swimsuit), they are so much more useful rather than candy, which ends up being thrown away. DVD's are nice as well. Some people don't let their children that age watch TV, but if they do, I recommend Finding Nemo, Bambi (just re-released), my kids love Monsters Inc., but some kids are afraid of their closets after seeing it. |
I'm not big on candy for kids. My kids always got other things in the basket; the candy was a filler. There are lots of things to fill baskets with- I used to go to BJ's Wholesale & buy the cotton T-shirt material PJ's; my daughter collects monkey's; not any monkey; they were beanie & Gund. I usually did a Barbie for my daughter; while my son got a train/plane toy. Coloring books; crayons in a special tin; new juice cup. For my friends little guy (3) I got him Toy Story juices; a new Thomas the Tank train set from Target. I've also done books; toy cell phone; new outfit; Pez. As was mentioned bubbles; at his age it's usually the parent that holds it. I'm not big on stuffed animals unless they are meaningful. My daughter still has her original Tigger from her Godmother. |
I would do stickers instead of candy. My 2 year old loves them. Especially the ones that come with a back ground and you place them like in an art project. Great practice ofr fine motor skills too. Color book and crayons would be a hit in our house. Books are always a hit. Clothes is appreciated by me as a parent. Sometimes appreciated by my daughter too, but not always at the moment she gets it. I'm with Polly on wishing the kid wouldn't get candy. My in-laws have been good so far and honored that. I figure there will be plenty of times for them to eat candy as they get older. No need to introduce it at this age. |
My children in the mid 40s still remember the Easter Egg hunt grandma always put together. Even when they knew darn well where she hid them. Forever memories. |
I'm going to give H a little chocolate bunny is all. His mom and dad are very good at not keeping any sweets in the house at ALL. Except healthy snacks. I have a question. Last night I ordered my 6mo. old granddaughter a summer outfit, one to crawl around in. That's when it dawned on me she needs diaper covers/bloomers to go with her summer tee shirts. I mean, she IS a lady and all. :) I was floored at their price! The cheapest I found was about $12 each! Seriously, is there a store that sells plain old diaper covers in white or pink at lower prices? I want to get some with ruffles but those are in the $20 range. Wow! |
Me too emagineer!! We always had an egg hunt at my grandparents - and usually my out-of-town cousins were here also. Those are my memories of Easter - that and the pictures of us kids in our Easter outfits! I would focus more on the day and it's meaning to your family (for us it has strong religous meaning)and plan a special events (such as an egg hunt) rather than gifts. You can put small gifts into the eggs. We ALWAYS had a golden egg that had the best prize (usually $5 LOL). Lovely memories of easter lunch and then the egg hunt. tina |

Ditto to emagineer and tina! my 40+ kids still cherish memories of grandma"s house and cousins and the egg hunt that went on all day----grandma would rehide and they loved it. In those days it was real eggs. today we do the same thing, but use the plastic eggs with little surprises inside. It may be a few coins, stickers, tatoos, etc. Its the thrill of the hunt! |
We'll definitely do the egg hunt. We always hosted Easter here and since we live on an acre with a lot of trees, it was a lot of fun! The funniest part was when the kids hid them from the adults. I was thinking about the "no candy" thing when kids are small. My mom never kept any sweets in the house the whole time I grew up, excluding the occassional pound cake or banana pudding. I wonder if that's why I crave sweets to this day? My boys always had cookies and stuff, and now that they're older, they don't really have a sweet tooth. |

One year for my GD I filled a large (cheap) basket with spring outdoor toys (cheap, again). Bubbles, sidewalk chalk, plastic horseshoe game, wiffle ball/bat, plastic tennis rackets with velcro and cheap balls are some examples. It is a good time to encourage outdoor play. The reason I say cheap is that in the spring and summer they need outdoor, plastic that can be left on the sidewalks, patios, and lawn. It is also a good time to get a new beachball or a colorful playground ball. Another year I gave her a new swimsuit, cute flip-flops, and a new pair of shorts - gotta get a girl's summer wardrobe started! I wouldn't spend a lot on a 6 month old - perhaps a new stuffed animal or a ball small enough that she can hold. Or a new sundress! Or a little basket filled with hairbows, ribbons, and a cute pair of summer sandals. Have a good supply of plastic eggs on hand to hide in the house in case of rain. You don't want to lose a real egg in the house (peww). My mother cared for my son when he was young and his favorite memory of Mamaw is that they hid plastic Easter Eggs in the house the entire week before Easter. She was so patient! Tuesday |

oaklyok I am a teacher also and books are my go to gifts anytime of year. My one grandson has so many books I think he could open up his own town library. Here's a suggestion. My daughter keeps a spread sheet of all the books he owns. If I buy any I add to it. This way I don't have to remember what I already got him. Also, after the holidays BN has them half off and I buy for the following year. The suggestions of bubbles, stickers ,sidewalk chalk is good. Also some pool toys or sandpails. |
We really never got a "gift" per se, our Easter outfits were considered our gift as I remember. But, as a kid, I do remember Easter candy, and it was a treat and made good memories! Interestingly, none of us siblings are big candy eaters, but we were never deprived of it either. I know kids that are, and they go totally crazy when they do get it! But, I am sure it works both ways. |
denali, I love the idea of a spread sheet! I'll tell my DIL about it. |

Or you could just enter the books on Librarything.com. It's still free for the first 200 books, I think. After that it's still cheap, even a life-time, unlimited-use, account costs just $25. Imagine growing up with a list of every book you had, and getting old enough to start adding your own book choices. The neat thing is it can be either open to the public (but with no names of course) or entirely private. If your daughter enters the books they have or add, and you enter the books that are coming, then everybody can avoid duplication. And there's even a portable app thingy for use when checking the list by cellphone whilst standing in the aisle at Barnes and Noble. I love my LibraryThing account! Here's a link: |
Here is a link that might be useful: Library Thing on-line personal book cataloguing site
The book, "The Golden Egg" by A.J. Wood (there is another book with the same title written by someone else) came in yesterday, and I know Henry will just love it! The story is easy to understand and short, beautiful illustrations & the colored eggs inside all look like jewels and they change colors when you move the book. I may keep it for myself. :) |

Douay-Rheims (RHE) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 And the children of Israel, and all the multitude came into the desert of Sin, in the first month: and the people abode in Cades. And Mary died there, and was buried in the same place. | 1 In the first month the whole Israelite community arrived at the Desert of Zin, and they stayed at Kadesh. There Miriam died and was buried. |
2 And the people wanting water, came together against Moses and Aaron: | 2 Now there was no water for the community, and the people gathered in opposition to Moses and Aaron. |
3 And making a sedition, they said: Would God we had perished among our brethren before the Lord. | 3 They quarreled with Moses and said, "If only we had died when our brothers fell dead before the LORD! |
4 Why have you brought out the church of the Lord into the wilderness, that both we and our cattle should die? | 4 Why did you bring the LORD's community into this desert, that we and our livestock should die here? |
5 Why have you made us come up out of Egypt, and have brought us into this wretched place which cannot be sowed, nor bringeth forth figs, nor vines, nor pomegranates, neither is there any water to drink? | 5 Why did you bring us up out of Egypt to this terrible place? It has no grain or figs, grapevines or pomegranates. And there is no water to drink!" |
6 And Moses and Aaron leaving the multitude, went into the tabernacle of the covenant, and fell flat upon the ground, and cried to the Lord, and said. O Lord God, hear the cry of this people, and open to them thy treasure, a fountain of living water, that being satisfied, they may cease to murmur. And the glory of the Lord appeared over them. | 6 Moses and Aaron went from the assembly to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and fell facedown, and the glory of the LORD appeared to them. |
7 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: | 7 The LORD said to Moses, |
8 Take the rod, and assemble the people together, thou and Aaron thy brother, and speak to the rock before them, and it shall yield waters. And when thou hast brought forth water out of the rock, all the multitude and their cattle shall drink. | 8 "Take the staff, and you and your brother Aaron gather the assembly together. Speak to that rock before their eyes and it will pour out its water. You will bring water out of the rock for the community so they and their livestock can drink." |
9 Moses therefore took the rod, which was before the Lord, as he had commanded him, | 9 So Moses took the staff from the LORD's presence, just as he commanded him. |
10 And having gathered together the multitude before the rock, he said to them: Hear, ye rebellious and incredulous: Can we bring you forth water out of this rock? | 10 He and Aaron gathered the assembly together in front of the rock and Moses said to them, "Listen, you rebels, must we bring you water out of this rock?" |
11 And when Moses bad lifted up his hand, and struck the rock twice with the rod, there came forth water in great abundance, so that the people and their cattle drank, | 11 Then Moses raised his arm and struck the rock twice with his staff. Water gushed out, and the community and their livestock drank. |
12 And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron: Because you have not believed me, to sanctify me before the children of Israel, you shall not bring these people into the land, which I will give them. | 12 But the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, "Because you did not trust in me enough to honor me as holy in the sight of the Israelites, you will not bring this community into the land I give them." |
13 This is the Water of contradiction, where the children of Israel strove with words against the Lord, and he was sanctified in them. | 13 These were the waters of Meribah, where the Israelites quarreled with the LORD and where he showed himself holy among them. |
14 In the mean time Moses sent messengers from Cades to the king of Edom, to say: Thus saith thy brother Israel: Thou knowest all the labour that hath come upon us: | 14 Moses sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom, saying: "This is what your brother Israel says: You know about all the hardships that have come upon us. |
15 In what manner our fathers went down into Egypt, and there we dwelt a long time, and the Egyptians afflicted us and our fathers. | 15 Our forefathers went down into Egypt, and we lived there many years. The Egyptians mistreated us and our fathers, |
16 And how we cried to the Lord, and he heard us, and sent an angel, who hath brought us out of Egypt. Lo, we are now in the city of Cades, which is in the uttermost of thy borders, | 16 but when we cried out to the LORD, he heard our cry and sent an angel and brought us out of Egypt. "Now we are here at Kadesh, a town on the edge of your territory. |
17 And we beseech thee that we may have leave to pass through thy country. We will not go through the fields, nor through the vineyards, we will not drink the waters of thy wells, but we will go by the common highway, neither turning aside to the right hand, nor to the left, till we are past thy borders. | 17 Please let us pass through your country. We will not go through any field or vineyard, or drink water from any well. We will travel along the king's highway and not turn to the right or to the left until we have passed through your territory." |
18 And Edom answered them: Thou shalt not pass by me: if thou dost I will come out armed against thee. | 18 But Edom answered: "You may not pass through here; if you try, we will march out and attack you with the sword." |
19 And the children of Israel said: We will go by the beaten way: and if we and our cattle drink of thy waters, we will give thee what is just: there shall be no difficulty in the price, only let us pass speedily. | 19 The Israelites replied: "We will go along the main road, and if we or our livestock drink any of your water, we will pay for it. We only want to pass through on foot--nothing else." |
20 But he answered: Thou shalt not pass. And immediately he came forth to meet them with an infinite multitude, and a strong hand, | 20 Again they answered: "You may not pass through." Then Edom came out against them with a large and powerful army. |
21 Neither would he condescend to their desire to grant them passage through his borders. Wherefore Israel turned another way from him. | 21 Since Edom refused to let them go through their territory, Israel turned away from them. |
22 And when they had removed the camp from Cades, they came to mount Hor, which is in the borders of the land of Edom: | 22 The whole Israelite community set out from Kadesh and came to Mount Hor. |
23 Where the Lord spoke to Moses: | 23 At Mount Hor, near the border of Edom, the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, |
24 Let Aaron, saith he, go to his people: for he shall not go into the land which I have given the children of Israel, because he was incredulous to my words, at the waters of contradiction. | 24 "Aaron will be gathered to his people. He will not enter the land I give the Israelites, because both of you rebelled against my command at the waters of Meribah. |
25 Take Aaron and his son with him, and bring them up into mount Hor: | 25 Get Aaron and his son Eleazar and take them up Mount Hor. |
26 And when thou hast stripped the father of his vesture, thou shalt vest therewith Eleazar his son: Aaron shall be gathered to his people, and die there. | 26 Remove Aaron's garments and put them on his son Eleazar, for Aaron will be gathered to his people; he will die there." |
27 Moses did as the Lord had commanded: and they went up into mount Hor before all the multitude. | 27 Moses did as the LORD commanded: They went up Mount Hor in the sight of the whole community. |
28 And when he had stripped Aaron of his vestments, he vested Eleazar his son with them. (20-29) And Aaron being dead in the top of the mountain, he came down with Eleazar. | 28 Moses removed Aaron's garments and put them on his son Eleazar. And Aaron died there on top of the mountain. Then Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain, |
29 (20-30) And all the multitude seeing that Aaron was dead, mourned for him thirty days throughout all their families. | 29 and when the whole community learned that Aaron had died, the entire house of Israel mourned for him thirty days. |

I have a newly rooted plant cutting. It is currently in a plastic pot. Is it best to leave as is until spring? At that time plant in ground? I do not know the best way to care for my plant. Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks. |
Follow-Up Postings:
It's extremely hard to kill and in many areas is considered an invasive plant, though it is lovely in bloom. I would plant it in a large bucket with drainage holes in the garden and keep an eye on it to be sure it does not overstep its bounds. Most plants are better in the ground than in a pot, but in this case, it does depend on how well-rooted a piece you have. |
Agree with ninamarie, better to put it into the ground soon and let it establish before winter than not. A lot of underground "runners" grow now, while little changes on the top during this time of the year. Mine survives some heavy shade at a base of a large tree, but is not overly aggressive (perhaps because of this shade) Its tough, but keep watered for a few days after planting and you should have a bit of growth and much better spring. |

Take heed to ninamarie's advice: PLANT IN POT. This one takes off and keeps running..unless you have lots of space. I had a beauty and really loved the gorgeous flowers, but it took over aggressively. |

My response is way outdated....but may help another gooseneck loosestrife lover. |
I had thought I had eradicated this plant from the garden at least five years ago, but probably even longer than that. But it has made a comeback this spring - and in force. Appeared as if from nowhere and a sizeable clump at that. |
I loved flowers on mine but when I saw how it spreads, got rid of it. Every time I see it elsewhere I wonder if people know what they got. I have a male Kiwi vine, once I also planted hops, that is out. Kiwi I keep in check, flowers and foliage on it are lovely but you have to control it. Virginia creeper (no wonder it's called a creeper) took off, climbing everywhere, got rid of that too. Honeysuckle is not much better, love the smell but it grows like crazy. |
- Posted by ians_gardener (My Page) on Sun, Jul 7, 13 at 18:05
Love the plant and the way it looks.....once you understand how it spreads, it is easy to take a spade in the spring and dig it back, thus containing it.... Ian |

I tried Hákarl last summer in Iceland and at the same place. And it was OK, but I wouldn't order it again. ;)
Tasting Iceland
I have been wanting to do this for a while before I arrived in Iceland, and today I had both the chance and courage to do so.
Hákarl – or fermented shark, is a local delicacy I guess you could say… there are those that love it, and then most normal people hate it. :D
It is made from Greenland or Sleeper Shark. Once caught it is buried for a while, and then hung to ferment for months on end… Check out Bizarre Foods youtube clip on Hákarl here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KL9xuTsfdE
It really was not as bad as what I thought it would be. Another thing ticked off the bucket list… Hákarl – Yummo!

Boom Preventer or Not?

Boom Preventer or Not?
This is a great question, and falls inside the general territory of ''When is a safe practice or safety gear unsafe...?''
Just a clarification, so we''re talking the same language. A preventer typically refers to a line run forward from the boom end (or nearly so) to the foredeck somewhere, and then perhaps/perhaps not back to the cockpit. It''s purpose is to prevent an accidental jibe & the damage it may cause (such as your experience). A boom vang can run from the mid-boom area to the sidedeck (and maybe back to the cockpit), and is intended to flatten the mainsail on a reach/run. OR these days, can be an in-line vang of some kind, tacked to the mast base and would do ''zip'' re: a jibe. IOW it''s a trimming device, tho'' it may/may not serve partially as a preventer.
I''m guessing that you made your initial decision (not to hook up a preventer) based on your normal racing/sailing experiences, which I''m betting are on the Bay. Then you found yourself offshore in more swell & boat motion than your crew typically faces, and the sea contributed to the jibe. Or put in the form of a question, did you make your ''no preventer'' decision based on Bay racing but find yourself in seas that more typically would call for one?
Another question is whether you have a boom vang and/or boom brake on the boat? I''d expect at least the former on a racing boat, but if it''s an in-line vang (vs. taken to the side deck) that''s irrelevant to your question re: a preventer.
FWIW some form of preventer can be a good fundamental practice offshore, especially when short-handed - at least, when sailing conservatively. Racing is a different ballgame: more crew & more alert on-watch crew (arguably, good reasons not to bother with a preventer), racing closer to the jibe, keeping lots of sail area up & more boat motion (just asking for a jibe!). Sounds to me like a judgement call, and your experience is suggesting for those conditions & your crew, a preventer was the wiser choice.
My wife & I are doing frequent offshore sails right now, and I rig a sidedeck boom vang and reef down conservatively to avoid having to deal with situations like the one you had to tackle. And at night, even more so! I know our circumstances don''t equate to offshore racing...but perhaps to some degree, they should. Thankfully, we didn''t hear you say anything about crew injuries...which would even more strongly suggest a preventer of some kind would have been a good idea.

Betting on NASCAR
Anyone who is not that familiar with the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series but is considering putting down bets on it should be aware that when considering who could possibly win it, there is more than simply the number of points accumulated by each driver that should be factored in.
It is also important to consider how many races they have won, as this can have a serious bearing on their overall chances, and you will often see a definite disparity between the standings and the bookmakers' favourites for just that reason.
Thus, although Jimmie Johnson is the odds-on favourite with the bookies and also the points' leader in this season's NASCAR, the driver just behind him on points – Carl Edwards – is rated more of an outsider by the bookies at 15/1.
On the other hand, Matt Kenseth, who is more than eighty points off the lead in the standings is second favourite with the sports betting sites at 6/1 – with the primary reason being that he has won four race events this season, compared with Edwards' one.
This means that you have to evaluate based on both of these criteria when deciding who to put outright NASCAR bets on, and why those with limited knowledge of the sport will probably find an online casino motor sports game to be less complicated.
One of the motor sports themed games which seems to be proving especially popular with racing fans is the slots game Motor Slot Speed Machine – which is a five reel slot and can be found at Lucky Nugget online casino.
Part of the appeal is certainly the impressive jackpot ($50,000) as well as how cheap it is to play (minimum bet $0.05), but there is also the motor biking reel icons, the background imagery of a motorcycle riding headlong into flames and the top bonus game where you have to bet on the outcome of a race between three motorbikes.
The video graphics really come into their own here, capturing all the excitement of motor racing, while mobile casino apps mean that you can play this game from any location on a phone.

Goku is in Super Saiyan God form. If he runs out of time he can channel the form's power through SSJ1 exactly like in BoTG.
No prep.
Random Encounter.
Both sides bloodlusted.
Location: Cell Games.
I think Goku wins as Galaxia is more or less Kid Buu level (even though I can make a little argument of Frieza being able to beat her)
Who do you guys think wins this?

News Analysis: The big news that came out of CES was a tsunami of new
smartphones and tablet PC designs. But Microsoft, arguably the most
important company at the show, could have made security the theme at CES
this year. Unfortunately, it didn't. And users are left wondering how to
keep their data secure going forward.
The Consumer Electronics Show is a spectacle. It's a place where massive
tech companies and small startups come together to show off neat, new
ideas. Some companies focus on PCs, others attempt to innovate with
products that consumers have never seen.
For the tech lover, it's an exciting show that kicks off the new year.
The only problem is, so many of the products on the showroom floor won't
hit store shelves in the next year. Still others are concept items that
may or may not work in a real-life setting. In too many cases, CES
blinds consumers with flashy products that they might never see in their
As disappointing as that might be, it's how things go at CES. But just
because there is a certain norm that all companies align with, it
doesn't mean that Microsoft, arguably one of the most important
companies at CES, couldn't have spent its time at the show talking about
It might not be as exciting as a new tablet or Project Natal, but
security has the greatest impact on both consumers and the enterprise.
And considering Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer gave the keynote address
that kicked off CES, he could have made a big splash.
Instead, Ballmer spent his time talking about phones and computers. On
the showroom floor, Microsoft did nothing to push forward the hope for
better security. It was a missed opportunity for the software giant. And
it could cost it in the court of public opinion. Here's why Microsoft
should have discussed security at CES:
1. The keynote
Unlike any other company at the Consumer Electronics Show, Microsoft had
an opportunity to exploit captive media attention at its keynote
address. Microsoft could have discussed how it plans to implement a
security plan that will help keep users' data far more secure than it
has in the past. Ballmer's keynote was an opportunity for Microsoft to
set the tone for security in 2010. It missed the mark.

Empellón Taqueria
Alex Stupak cut his teeth as a pastry chef at landmark avant-garde restaurants WD-50 in New York City and Alinea in Chicago, but he's shifted directions and traded the hydrocolloids and xanthan gum for the more time-honored Mexican techniques at Empellón. Yet he doesn't shy away from pushing limits—after all, empellón translates to "push" in Spanish. Among Stupak's adventurous taco combinations: sweetbreads with maitake mushrooms, and beer-braised tongue with arbol chile salsa.
Tune in on Wednesdays at 10PM ET for Top Chef: Boston, the 12th season of Bravo's Emmy-Award winning, hit reality series.

Debian 1.1
The Debian packaging system makes it possible to do add, remove and upgrade automatically. You may have noticed that I said "makes it possible", not that it always works. If the package is properly constructed, it will automate all these tasks for you. But it's up to the person or vendor building the package to ensure it works. The scripts in the package are also very important to help you with package management. In addition to the pre-install and post-install scripts mentioned earlier, there are also pre-remove and post-remove scripts.
Debian remains an "almost-commercial" distribution. By this I mean that you can buy it on a CD, but there is no company that sells and supports it, and as far as I know, no commercial software packages are available in the Debian format.
Sidebar: More Debian Information
This situation could change. As I write, InfoMagic is considering making Motif available in Debian format. Also, as the official keeper of Matt Welsh's Linux Installation and Getting Started, we are considering writing an installation chapter for Debian.
Only time will tell if the Debian format will make serious inroads into the commercial Linux market. I hope it does.

As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Latin alchemy
In the 12th century the Christian West began to shed its habit of indifference or hostility to the secular literature of ancient and alien civilizations. Christian scholars were particularly attracted to Muslim Spain and Sicily and there made translations from both Arabic and Greek works, many of which were in some degree familiar, but some of which, including the literature of alchemy, were new.
The Greek alchemy of the Venice–Paris manuscript had much less impact than the work of ar-Rāzī and other Arabs, which emerged among the voluminous translations made in Spain about 1150 by Gerard of Cremona. By 1250 alchemy was familiar enough to enable such encyclopaedists as Vincent of Beauvais to discuss it fairly intelligibly, and before 1300 the subject was under discussion by the English philosopher and scientist Roger Bacon and the German philosopher, scientist, and theologian Albertus Magnus. To learn about alchemy was to learn about chemistry, for Europe had no independent word to describe the science of matter. It had been touched upon in works concerned with other forms of change—e.g., the motion of projectiles, the aging of man, and similar Aristotelian concepts. On the practical side there were also artists' recipe books; but for the first time in the works of Bacon and Albertus Magnus change was discussed in a truly chemical sense, with Bacon treating the newly translated alchemy as a general science of matter for which he had great hopes.
But the more familiar alchemy became, the more clearly it was understood that gold making was the almost exclusive objective of alchemy, and Europeans proved no more resistant to the lure of this objective than their Arabic predecessors. By 1350, alchemical tracts were pouring out of the scriptoria (monastic copying rooms), and the Europeans had even taken over the tradition of anonymity and false attribution. One authority wrote at length about supposed disagreements between two Arabs, Iahiae Abindinon and Geber Abinhaen, who were probably two versions of the name of Jābir ibn Ḥayyān. The most famous Jābirian work in Europe, The Sum of Perfection, is now thought to have been an original European composition. At about this time personal reminiscences of alchemists began to appear. Most famous was the Paris notary Nicolas Flamel (1330–1418), who claimed that he dreamed of an occult book, subsequently found it, and succeeded in deciphering it with the aid of a Jewish scholar learned in the mystic Hebrew writings known as the Kabbala. In 1382 Flamel claimed to have succeeded in the "Great Work" (gold making); certainly he became rich and made donations to churches.
By 1300 alchemists had begun the discovery of the mineral acids, a discovery that occupied about three centuries between the first evidence of the new strong water (aqua fortis—i.e., nitric acid) and the clear differentiation of the acids into three kinds: nitric, hydrochloric, and sulfuric. These three centuries saw prodigious efforts in European alchemy, for these spontaneously reactive and highly corrosive substances opened a whole new world of research. And yet, it was of little profit to chemistry, for the experiments were inhibited by the old objectives of separating the base metals into their "elements," concocting elixirs, and other traditional procedures.
The "water of life" (aqua vitae; i.e., alcohol) was probably discovered a little earlier than nitric acid, and some physicians and a few alchemists turned to the elixir of life as an objective. John of Rupescissa, a Catalonian monk who wrote c. 1350, prescribed virtually the same elixirs for metal ennoblement and for the preservation of health. His successors multiplied elixirs, which lost their uniqueness and finally simply became new medicines, often for specific ailments. Medical chemistry may have been conceived under Islām, but it was born in Europe. It only awaited christening by its great publicist, Paracelsus (1493–1541), who was the sworn enemy of the malpractices of 16th-century medicine and a vigorous advocate of "folk" and "chemical" remedies. By the end of the 16th century, medicine was divided into warring camps of Paracelsians and anti-Paracelsians, and the alchemists began to move en masse into pharmacy.
Paracelsian pharmacy was to lead, by a devious path, to modern chemistry, but gold making still persisted, though methods sometimes differed. SalomonTrismosin, purported author of the Splendor solis, or "Splendour of the Sun" (published 1598), engaged in extensive visits to alchemical adepts (a common practice) and claimed success through "kabbalistic and magical books in the Egyptian language." The impression given is that many had the secret of gold making but that most of them had acquired it from someone else and not from personal experimentation. Illustrations, often heavily symbolic, became particularly important, those of Splendor solis being far more complex than the text but clearly exercising a greater appeal, even to modern students.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I love the simplicity of these invitations, and the foil stamping really makes them feel "expensive." Our customer service agent was great to work with; she helped me customize the text and even offered suggestions on different ways to word my invitation and RSVP cards. I would highly recommend Wedding Paper Divas to everybody."
"Easy to personalize and add too if needed. Slightly pricey but worth it to know that it's going to be done right. Customer service is also very helpful if you need help or need to order extra :)"
"I was looking for a very modern, classy invitation. I stumbled upon this suite and it worked out great! The foil is pretty, the card stock is perfect. I wanted to make the back plain black and they were able to do it. Very accommodating and checks everything before it is printed."
"I picked this design because it was matched the floral for our wedding and the script was nice but not too small or difficult to read. I ordered samples of each different paper option during a sale event--very helpful in decision making. The only problem with the invitation was the wording, which was easily fixed by the WPD designer. 2 days later we received the proof and it was perfect. Excited to send them out to our family and friends!"
"We did not want the cursive writing (mainly my fiance did not want..) but we still wanted somple elegant. This was the perfect combination. The team here was also very helpful in changing the colors to match our wedding."

I have a surface, a centerline alignment, and an offset alignment for the centerline alignment. Also a surface profile for the centerline alignment.
1. When i copy the centerline alignment in another drawing, it gets copied with the surface as well as the surface profile.
2. When i export the alignments using landxml, and import that landxml into another drawing, the offset alignment takes the property of a centerline alignment and that way its link with the original centerline alignment is lost.
Kindly reply for the issue. thanks
1. Can you explain exactly how you are copying the alignment?
2. I don't believe there is a 'solution' to this. When you export to Land xml the alignment is just an alignment, no specific type. So when you import it back C3D will give it the default type "Centerline". Can you use a data shortcut instead of Landxml?
Credit where credit is due! Give kudos or accept as solution whenever you can.
It usually causes problems to use the clipboard to copy C3D objects from one drawing to another.
I also think that the LandXML method will drop the offset property of the alignment. Try using either a data reference or simply X-Referencing the alignment into the destination drawing to get the results you expect.

One of the trendsetting clusters, Bohemian Mix are real-life Friends, the young singles and couples who dress hip and frequent coffee bars, microbreweries and arthouse movie theatres. This cluster is open to new things. With almost three-quarters of the Mix single or divorced, and almost a third gay, author Michael J. Weiss notes this cluster is "a haven for alternative lifestyles." This is where the Gay Pride parade will be held, the multiethnic clothing boutique located, and the McDonald's and Wal-Mart willfully rejected. Also called "the young and the restless," these singles consume almost twice the national average in alcoholic beverages, enjoy aerobic activities to work those imbibed calories off, and lead sales in condoms.
- Living in the heart of downtown, these apartment-dwellers are ethnically mixed white-collar professionals who earn an average salary of $33,700.

On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Things I liked:Easy to set up, easy to use. Portable and very repeatable. Things I would have changed:Ability to upgrade this unit is limited. If you think you may want to reset remotely or to use the recording printer, upgrade first. I didn't need it and don't miss it. What others should know:If shooting indoors, buy the aux light source. I went from 40% errors to zero with the auxiliary light source installed. Things I liked:Works for me. It is a basic device that does what it needs to do. I use it to know precisely the fps. Using this in combination with the Hawke ballistic charts and program I find this unit to be very helpful. Things I would have changed:Nothing, as for a private person it does what it needs to do, nothing fancy is required. What others should know:If you are serious about airguns knowing the fps speed of a pellet is mandatory. Both for the ballistic curve and downrange energy. This is a no frills fully adequate device that does its job well. Things I liked:Easy to setup and a breeze to operate. Very accurate. What others should know:I made my own Remote cable and have made a USB interface cable to connect to my laptop. As a computer programmer, I wrote my own software to extract, sort, catalog and store the data stream from the F-1 into a library file for various guns and ammunition. As the F-1 outputs standard ASCII this is very simple to do. Show Other ReviewsCreate an online review and share your thoughts with other customers

More reviews by Product_Junkie
I found this conditioner to work better than expected. I like the natural ingredients and the gloss and moisture it provides w/out weighing down my hair. I don't know if the ingredients have changed over time, as I saw on some websites that the ingredients were slighly different; the one I have does not contain honeysuckle extract, while on some websites it is listed' while shea butter is listed on the tube I bought, but on certain websites, the shea butter is not listed. Anyway, there is not much scent except a faint oatmeal scent , nothing unpleasant, just very neutral. I put a small about three quarter sized amounts throughout my hair and combed through left is for a while then rinsed. My hair felt pretty good and healthy and had body; I also found this conditioner made my curls more bouncy and springy too while moisturizing at the same time--I did not experience this with the DE Coconut conditioner, although I like that one too, it does weigh down the hair a little, not too much. All in all, I like this fragrance free conditioner and it makes my hair healthy. The only qualm I have is the packaging-half way down, you have to push hard to get the product out. For the price and quality for a drugstore conditioner, this in my experience is a cut above, Garnier, L'oreal, Pantene, Aussi, Tresseme, Herbal Essences, Organix, etc.because it contains the ingredients that work very well with my hair like panthenol, shea butter, olive oil, jojoba oil and kelp extract to name a few.
This stuff sucks. Both the shampoo and the conditioner which I have reviewed as well. I have never used so horrible products on my hair. I'm not sure if this conditioner sucked as much as the shampoo but it certainly could not add a quarter of the moisture back into my hair that the shampoo violently took from it. I have been through an uncountable amount of shampoos and conditioners because I am a total junkie and this takes combo takes the prize for the worst ones I have ever tried out of both natural and chemical brands. Do not buy this stuff if you respect your hair at all. Its horrible.
I thought I like this conditioner initially. It is probably better for someone who doesn't need much. Little too light for me.
It compensates for the dryness left by Desert Essence fragrance free shampoo (this conditioner is superior to the corresponding shampoo). I leave this to sit in my hair while I wash the rest of me or shave, and then rinse. And it doesn't irritate my skin or scalp, so that's another bonus.
Background: I have very sensitive, very dry skin, and with normal conditioner my chest gets itchy from the rinse water, my neck gets eczema, and my scalp gets little irritated bumps. This alleviates all of those symptoms when used in conjunction with fragrance free body wash and shampoo.
well, i actually like this, much to my surprise! Lately I have shifted toward more moisturizing products because even though my hair is fine, it is badly damaged from too much color processing. I love DevaCare and generally try to stick to no sulfates/silicones. I feared that like many natural conditioners, this wouldn't provide enough moisture., but it actually leaves my hair very hydrated, even though it rinses clean. It's great for someone like me who needs moisture without weight. I love that it's fragrance free, too. The matching shampoo to me seems identical in formula and effect as Jessicurl's gentle lather shampoo. I do need to use a lot of the conditioner, but my hair is very long.
3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is a rather mediocre conditioner that leaves no body or shine after its use and I still had flyaways! I agree with the others I don't like the container as the tube gets clogged up easily although the packaging is in a pretty color...lol Thats about the best thing I can say about this conditioner.
UPDATE: Well, they lost their defender. I liked this product and have used it and the matching shampoo for several years. I had even found the right combination (a bit of coconut oil and a few drops of NOW almond oil) to wear my hair down sometimes, and I've been getting compliments on it. So I was quite upset when I went to the store to stock up and found that they've totally changed the ingredients, adding some that I'm highly sensitive to. I can understand frequently updating normal shampoos, but fragrance free versions are often bought by highly allergic people who often look for years before they find something that finally works for them, and changing the formula is more likely than not just going to lose these devotees. Well, back to wasting money, looking terrible, and wearing my hair up all the time.
ORIGINAL REVIEW:It's funny how everyone's hair is different. I hated the DE lemon conditioner, but I love the fragrance free one. First let me agree with dragonballz that the packaging stinks: the little tab that initially seals the opening is hard to remove, and it annoys me that a company that is environmentally responsible in other ways is using non-recyclable plastic packaging. However, I keep buying this conditioner because it is so wonderful for my hair. Used in conjunction with the fragrance free shampoo, it makes my curly, frizzy, thick but light-weight hair look better than it has since Terax changed its formula years ago. I have to use a lot of it, so it ends up not being cheap, but then again my hair is thick and down to the small of my back when wet, so most would probably use much less. I can't tell you how happy I am that I found this conditioner- I am happily wearing my hair down for the first time in years! *UPDATE* I raised the rating on the packaging of this conditioner because they improved the material that seals the opening before you first use it. Also, although there was a frustrating period during which they seemed to change the formula for the worse, they have apparently changed it back, and my hair is happy again!

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. A 16-foot great white shark tagged by researchers in Cape Cod has been tracked along the Grand Strand.
Mary Lee, the mature female shark weighing 3,456 pounds, was tagged by OCEARCH, a non-profit ocean research group on Sept. 17 and was first spotted off the South Carolina coast in October.
The most recent satellite ping Wednesday shows Mary Lee off the coast in North Myrtle Beach.
Dan Abel, professor of marine science at Coastal Carolina University and local shark expert, said its hard to say whether a great white shark so close to Myrtle Beach is unusual.
Theres a lot we dont know about white sharks, he said. We dont know where they migrate to, for the most part, we dont know where they give birth or where they mate. We dont know how long their gestation period is how long they carry their young.
He said the presence of a great white probably isnt uncommon, but theres still a lot to learn.
Nobody would [know how unusual this is]. We know white sharks have been there, mostly from recreational and commercial fishers who dont keep records and dont target the sharks, he said. How frequently they occur is a mystery, but that they occur is not.
Whats unusual, he said, is the amount of information available about a shark so close to Myrtle Beach.
Chris Fischer, Founding Chairman and Expedition Leader for OCEARCH, said the goal is to gather as much information as possible about the sharks to ensure the longevity of the species.
The purpose of this is to solve the life history puzzle of the great white shark and other ocean giants because we dont have the basic information we need to protect their future, he said.
He said OCEARCH is a collaborative effort of fishermen and scientists.
Three years ago, four years ago people wouldve said this is impossible, he said. What weve been able to do is bring world class fishermen and world class scientists together. Were able to capture the true giants of the ocean and give the thought leaders access theyve never had.
Fischer hopes the scientists can figure out where the sharks mate and give birth so those waters can be protected
The tracking mechanisms used by OCEARCH, Abel said are expensive and can cost about $200 per tag.
For the location ping to appear, the tag must breach the surface, he said, meaning the tag either breaks off and floats or the shark swims to the surface of the water. Other techniques dont give such immediate information.
Fischer said the tag on Mary Lee should last five years.
Abel also couldnt speculate about what may have brought the shark so close to shore, within one-mile near Litchfield Beach, but said typically white sharks arent oceanic, meaning they tend to stay near land.
He also said its good news to have a 16-foot great white shark cruising our waters despite the fear many have.
Anytime theres enthusiasm or passion from people about the most magnificent beast on the planet, its exciting, he said. Its a great teaching tool for me and it generates interest on the marine environment.
Fischer hopes the research helps eliminate some of the fear associated with sharks.
Theres a lot of fear and much of that tends to come because theres so much unknown, he said. We [could] replace all that fear with facts and we can kind of demystify the great white shark.
Despite how close the shark is, Fischer said people shouldnt be afraid.
First you have to realize that theyve always been there, he said. Its just now for the first time ever that we know. Peoples usage of the water shouldnt change at all because those sharks have always been there.
Abel is more excited to see more information, though.
Right now its a sample size of one and its cool, but it will be fun to get more information, he said. It will be interesting when enough are tagged and enough patterns emerge.
Fischer too said there need to be more sharks tagged and at least 10 would give scientists a sample size large enough to begin figuring out the behaviors of the white sharks.
To follow the path of Mary Lee and other sharks tagged by OCEARCH visit http://sharks-ocearch.verite.com.
The site has periodically crashed and Fischer said the capacity was recently upgraded to handle the increased traffic.
Thats a good problem to have, he said of the website crashes. My vision for the tracker was to get the public involved so they could know about the white shark that sort of grassroots support is just thrilling.

Chances are this will be the last week for strawberries. I'm gonna miss those beautiful red ripe strawberries but my mouth is watering just thinking about the blueberries that will make their first presence at the market tomorrow! Blueberries are my very most favorite of all. Here's a super simple recipe that is always a crowd pleaser.
Blueberry Crisp
4 cups fresh blueberries
1 cup all purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup mayonnaise
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place blueberries into an 8 inch square baking dish. In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, sugar and cinnamon. Stir in the mayonnaise and mix until it resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over the top of the blueberries. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the top is lightly browned. Serve with whipped cream. This recipe will serve 4 unless you are like me, then it will only serve 2!
Unfortunately strawberries aren't the only treat that will be making their last appearance at the market for the season. The asparagus will probably only be with us for this week and then they will be gone until next spring. Buy a bunch and freeze them for use during the winter. I just blanch mine for 2-4 minutes depending on the size, then give them an ice bath dunk. Pat them dry and spread them out on a cookie sheet and pop it into the freezer. Once they are frozen solid just put them in a plastic storage bag to keep in your freezer. That way you can just pull out the amount that you need for each meal.
The wonderful sugar snap peas and the snow peas can be frozen the same way...you'll find them at the market tomorrow too! And, don't forget about the rhubarb! Think strawberry rhubarb pie...yummy!
The Tuesday market hours are 3pm until 6:30pm...shop on your way home from the office!
Stay tuned for the Saturday market offerings and remember...
The Bluegrass Farmers' Market is 100% homegrown or produced and we are all
Kentucky Proud!

Why would you ever want to build the World's Tallest Gate?
Eva Fernandes wonders whether the UAE's Tallest Gate in the World will facilitate the passage of some very tall camels?
September 4, 2012 4:53 by Eva Fernandes
As I was reading the local press this morning I had to double-check whether I was on the website for The National or the Pan-Arabia Enquirer. Though it was the former, given the subject of the article I was reading, it isn't difficult to see why I might have thought otherwise—and a lack of sleep has little to do with it.
The article I am referring to is titled: 'World's biggest gate to open in UAE for President.' You can probably see where I am going with this, but hear me out. Having lived in the UAE for as long as I have, I am rather well acquainted to the country's penchant for grabbing titles for Guinness-Book records. With more than 50 titles from Guinness World Records, some of the more splendid achievements include the world's largest chair (7.56 metres high and 3.2 metres wide) made in 1999, the largest trolley (10.5 meters high 4.46 metres wide) in 2004 and the biggest Abaya (8.37 metres long and 3.66 metres wide) sewn in 2006.
Considering all of this, I still couldn't quite believe my eyes when I read of the latest record the UAE is attempting to nab. The World's Biggest Gate. At 25 metres high, you may wonder what does this gate help connect? Answer: nothing. Or perhaps you'd ask what will this gate protect us from? Perhaps from a Trojan horse sent by the modern day equivalent of the Greeks? Nope. Or will this gate mark the entrance of a palace, temple or special place—so it has unity in its architectural aesthetics if not anything else. Nope, it is just a gate in the middle of nowhere. Well at the very least, this gate will facilitate the passage of some very tall people or camels? Considering the tallest person on earth 2.5 meters high, the gate will be more than 22 meters too high, even for even him—assuming he does decide to visit the Emirates.
The planned launch-date for this gate is the 41st National Day of the UAE: December 2 and it will be dedicated to President, Sheikh Khalifa. Hey, I appreciate the sentiment—that is all very well, I just can't for the life of me fathom why anyone would ever need such a massive gate? Sure, you could argue most subjects in the Guinness World Book of Records aren't in the book for practical reasons—still this gate 'stands out' as particularly ridiculous (see what I did there?).
According to Habib Al Sayegh, director general of the centre, the gate is supposed to highlight "UAE culture and national identity and showing appreciation to other world cultures"–of course that begs the question what type of culture is a gate of this nature highlighting?

It's nice idea to make this big gate , but I think it's much better to do something more usefull for the people
Nice work there Eva. Couldn't disagree myself. The sentiment and all is great, but their ideas for world records are becoming ridiculous by the day. A gate in the middle of nowhere, with no purpose; are you kidding me?? They might as well donate all that money to a charity and make it the World's Largest Donation.
What a completely useless and utterly pointless waste of time, energy, materials and money…. More money than sense – as usual.

Which OS should i use XP, Vista or this other alternatives, 5 Packs to Transform Windows to other OS | MakeUseOf.com
Which OS should i use XP, Vista or this other alternatives, 5 Packs to Transform Windows to other OS | MakeUseOf.com
Win 2k.
Why do you care if you only use the computer to listen to music and download porn?
Besides, Thoses "alternatives' aren't alternatives at all, are just a bunch of cosmetic changes to windows..
But this brings me, I managed to install OSX On my INTEL... ya...
ANyways got it up running, internet everything... then... I noticed that everything didn't include any of my ero game.. and normal games..
WHAT I am supposed to use that thing for? WORK?
Those "alternatives" aren't operating systems, so you're basically asking whether you should use WinXP or Vista. Use Vista only if you're interested in gaming with DirectX 10 (that means having a DX10 compliant video card and at least 2GB of RAM). Otherwise, use XP.
What about if i want to install those Emulator programs that can play PSX,PS2,PSP ROMS?
You can install them on either WinXP or Vista, they will work the same on both.
Ms.Dos 6.4
Linux can play most of the emulators
except zsnes and VBA, which didn't play to well
or you can use WinXP
As I am aware of the Intel-based Macintoshs, and I do not have the luxury to buy a overpriced piece of hardware.
I never planed to ditch windows, nor fuel some kind of OS vs OS discussion, I was simply curious on how the fuck that shit worked...
Thats it.
Its pretty? yea it is..
Does serve my needs? no it doesn't.
Do I care? no I got dual boot.. I just got to press a button to change os.
Did I fail? well about the same as everyone that have LINUX/WINDOWS dual boots.
There would have been less fail if you just said "non-Apple x86-based system with SSE2 at least".

Thank you so much for all your responses to my request for the "Last Supper" pattern! I actually received a few of them, one by mail even!!!!! You are all so great! Now, I have another request; it's a pattern for a round tablecloth with 12 panels, ending with a rose and another kind of flower alternately. I crocheted this back in the 80's and can't remember if it was from MC or DC magazine. Some ladies are already looking for it, but haven't had any luck so far. Once again, thanks for all your help. Happy crocheting/knitting! |

Process of dissolving and chemically converting food for absorption by cells. In the mouth, food is chewed, mixed with saliva, which begins to break down starches, and kneaded by the tongue into a ball for swallowing. Peristalsis propels it through the esophagus and the rest of the alimentary canal. In the stomach, food mixes with acid and enzymes, which further break it down. The mixture, called chyme, enters the duodenum, the first part of the small intestine. Bile from the liver breaks up fat globules. Enzymes from the pancreas and intestinal glands act on specific molecules, breaking carbohydrates down into simple sugars, proteins into amino acids, and fats into glycerol and fatty acids. These products are absorbed by the bloodstream. Indigestible substances, such as fibre, pass into the large intestine, where water and ions are reabsorbed and feces held for excretion.

Atlantic Herring Biology and ResearchThe Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus) is the most important pelagic fishery resource in the state of Maine. It is also an important forage species for predators such as seabirds, marine mammals, and a variety of larger fish species. The Department of Marine Resources is responsible for monitoring the status of the Maine herring fishery and works in cooperation with the National Marine Fisheries Service to assess the status of the U.S. Atlantic coast herring stock, which extends from Virginia to New Brunswick. DMR biologists process herring samples obtained from the commercial fishery and compile landings and catch statistics provided by the fishermen and the herring industry. This information is combined with trawl survey abundance indices to estimate stock size and to provide advice for management purposes. These assessments indicate that the entire Atlantic coast stock complex of herring is very large and under-utlilized, but stock size is believed to be much larger offshore on Georges Bank than it is in the Gulf of Maine where most of the fishing takes place. DMR staff have also conducted acoustic surveys (below) on spawning aggregations of herring in the Gulf of Maine in recent years. These surveys are designed to determine the distribution and abundance of adult herring while they are on their respective spawning grounds and thereby provide more direct and useful information to managers which will allow them to protect individual spawning populations of herring in the Gulf of Maine.
