We have come to expect to have wireless internet access just about everywhere we go. At home, we can use our laptops to access the internet from any room in the house or we can go to coffee shops or fast food restaurants and surf the net. But have you ever stopped to think about the information on your computer or the information you are sending over the unsecured network or "hotspot?" Using an unsecured wireless connection is risky. Often, nothing sinister happens. However, the dangers are real and your important information is put at risk if you connect over an unsecured network. Anything sent in an email or saved on your computer could be at risk. We have all seen examples of children's social media or email accounts being compromised and inappropriate material is posted in their name. An unsecured wireless account puts your child's passwords and personal information out for anyone to see. The next several paragraphs describe the types of networks that are unsecured and the risks associated with using those unsecured wireless networks.
How do you know if the network is unsecured?
- A neighbor or even someone parked outside in a car can use your connection undetected and for free. The result can be as simple as slowing down your surfing because the "intruder" is using up your bandwidth. (This can cost money if your provider charges by the bandwidth you use.) But, if the intruder is illegally downloading music, movies or child pornography, the result could be more serious. A criminal who does not want to be caught can use your unsecured internet connection to commit crimes because when it is traced back to the source, your connection will be reported as the scene of the crime. While you might not be guilty, you will be the prime suspect and will have to defend yourself. In fact, many internet service providers include a clause in your contract that holds you responsible for any illegal activities that occur on your connection.
- Also, once an intruder has access to your home network, they have access to everything you have stored on any computers on that network and anything you do online. And if you think you do not have anything worth stealing, think again. An intruder, once inside can access your tax documents, financial records, online banking information, credit card numbers, emails, usernames and passwords, and even where you are going online. More sophisticated intruders can install software that records your every keystroke and every site you visit.
- Click the Router
- Click on Settings
- Change the Default SSID (a unique identifier used to name wireless networks)
- Disable the SSID Broadcast (hides the network so it isn't visible for all in range to see)
- Change the default password
If you need more help, check the router manual for directions.

Facts don't matter when it comes to politics according to a new scientific study. How many times have you been in a debate and the other person simply won't acknowledge that they are wrong, despite factual evidence proving otherwise?
According to a new study by Dan Kahan, a professor at Yale University, people are more likely to stick with their initial answer when facts prove them wrong. The subjects were initially assessed on their proficiency in numeracy, and their scores were noted. When the data was presented in a political context but the data remained identical, they did worse.
Scientifically they have proven that despite being provided with a fact that should change your belief on a subject, your political views distort the truth. Your mind already has an answer established so you are looking for proof that supports it, which is literally working backward in the scientific world. Confirmation bias has been proven to be the reason why smart people on all sides of the political spectrum can somehow manage to fail at providing factual arguments.
The new study shows why many Americans believe that climate change, or global warming, is not backed by science. Despite the fact that 97% of scientists agree that "climate-warming trends over the past century are very likely due to human activities," there are still those who insist it is all a hoax. A recent poll shows that 3 in 8 Americans actually believe that global warming is a hoax.
This is not hearsay, this is factual information that has been collected through multiple research teams around the world. If 18 scientific associations can agree that climate change is a real issue, then why do people still believe that it is a lie? An even more intriguing question would be, why do people stick to their beliefs when facts are right in front of them?
What is the underlying problem with climate change being a reality rather than a hoax? Could it be that we are told by a few loud individuals that is is all fabricated by the "Communists"? While conducting research, I discovered a pledge that has been going around congress pertaining to a possible resolution for climate change.
Some members of congress have pledged to vote against climate change legislation. The only way their votes would change is if an equivalent amount of tax cuts are also attached to the bill. This pledge was created by the Americans for Prosperity, which is owned by the Koch brothers.
Rather than attempting to disagree with facts, politics has found a way to navigate around information and straight to Congress. Knowledge is power, but when you lie to your supporters and they wholeheartedly stand by you, then there is a problem.
Is this an issue of not being able to handle the truth? Well here is a statistic which most Americans would rather not acknowledge: 51% of greenhouse gases are attributable to livestock and their products. This means that all of the meat you eat causes just as many, if not more, GHGs than your car does.
The Yale study proved that when people are misinformed about a subject, facts which contradict their assumptions actually make them believe their flawed information. An assistant professor of government at Dartmouth, Bendan Nyhan, found even more disturbing evidence to back up this study. From Salon:
People who said the economy was the most important issue to them, and who disapproved of Obama's economic record, were shown a graph of nonfarm employment over the prior year – a rising line, adding about a million jobs. They were asked whether the number of people with jobs had gone up, down or stayed about the same. Many, looking straight at the graph, said down.
Could this be the reason why global warming is considered to be a hoax by some Americans? Is the focus on the end goal so strong that facts cannot penetrate the "bubble" of misinformation?
How many times did the phrase "You didn't build that" get played on the news? This was specifically cut from a longer statement made by President Obama, and yet American Crossroads, founded in part by Karl Rove, tried to use that in a smear ad called Build during the 2012 elections. When taken out of context, the statement does seem like the President is bashing small business owners. Despite the fact that it was taken out of context, the GOP convention was themed "We Built This."
Fox News viewers were actually used as a study by the University of Maryland in regard to their knowledge of climate change. The findings concluded that Fox News viewers were more misinformed than other viewers of different news networks. A second study conducted by Stanford University found that "more exposure to Fox News was associated with more rejection of many mainstream scientists' claims about global warming."
Scientists get peer reviewed after many tests are conducted to aid in the process of ascertaining new facts. Politicians are able to twist information to directly support their agenda and are often associated with dishonesty. Scientists must prove their theories with substantial evidence, while the politician only has to appear to know what they are talking about. Which person do you trust more with facts: a scientist or a politician?

Just look around, listen and realize how clearly obvious this is the basic doctrine followed by politicians, no scientific study to say so. Representatives of we the people have died ... new game in town is between left and right, black and white, greedy and needy, etc. Back to the future, we own it.
While I did mention the 0.3C value along with the IPCC reference, you have chosen to twist and manipulate it to suit your needs. Similar to many of the extremists you purport to espouse. You seem to think that exaggerating to over twice the expected warming trend is acceptable, but those who exaggerate the cooling potential are liars.
I keep addressing your point, but you choose to ignore it. I cannot do more that that. I have already given you my credentials, so you know your accusations are false. Why bother?
No Dan B., I have nothing better to do than babysit your inanity, note your inability to accurately READ and ANALYZE facts, chastise your childish ability to twist and deflect the conversation based on whatever cherry-picked factoids seem to please you at the moment.
#1 -- As I stated, I did not choose the 0.3 C figure.....I purposefully picked it because YOU used it in an earlier post.
#2 -- As I already stated, my point was not about the specific figure itself, but about the biased way you define the climate-change extremes and then claim both sides are somehow "equivalent". You have FAILED to address that point at all. And I can see why.
#3 -- Whether I read or did not read the new IPPC report is an argumentive DEFLECTION on your part. My points to you have little to do with whether or not you or I read the report and its many details. Your lie about equivalency is a much broader-based intellectual lie. For all you know, I might be a co-author of the report. And for all I know, you might be the king of the Teatards.
By the way, have you read the latest IPCC report, or any portion thereof?
Do you have nothing better to do than insult others and make inane comments? Do you have any supporting evidence to back up your statement that temperature will rise only 0.3C over the next century? That is half the value of the previous century.
All -- for Dan B. to now disingenuously claim that the new IPCC report confirms his previous statements, is like J. Boehner 5 years from now trying to rename the the ACA as BoehnerCare....or maybe CruzCare. Not a surprise, it is a consistent tactic by the rightwing.
These people have clearly lost their grip on reality. Instead they live in their self-created echo-chamber...it is their entire world...a world based on rightwing emotion and FAILED ideology... a world aware of only those facts that happen to align with the fairytale-of-the-day that is driven into their empty heads like nails by their rightwing media lords.
Dan B. -- What are you 6 years old? Previously, you had been proudly advertising to anyone who would listen to your tripe here on Care2 that the new IPPC report would have to retract most of the basic findings of the previous one. Not only were they NOT retracted, but most were strengthened.
You are beyond DISINGENUOUS to now claim that the new IPCC report confirms your earlier statements. You are a sad apologist for the harmful, anti-science ideology that permeates your party. You claim [D]s and [R]s are equally bad at politicizing climate science.....but do tell us how, by agreeing with the climate science concensus, the [D]s are politicizing anything?
You seem to think that the concensus is a 0.3 C rise over the next century. OK, fine; without arguing specific numbers, you charge that the politician who would claim the figure is more like 0.6 C (0.3 C + 0.3 C, and within the range of the models' predictions) is "just as bad" as the ideologue who claims the number is 0 C (0.3 C - 0.3 C), not becasue of any scientific models but because the ideologue ignores the science altogether and claims there is no human-casued warming. The logical and scientific fallacy of that false equivalency, and the purposeful ignorance it takes to promote it on a public website, speaks of some serious cognative disabilities on your part.
Flat out: if you are anything other than a 6-year old typing on his Mommy's computer, you are an uber-partisan rightwing moron.
So, does the fact that recent IPCC report confirms my earlier statements change your opinion any? Christina sounds like she is broaching the issue in a rather scientific way. Global warming is happening, but not at the speed or intensity claimed by some.
Dan and everyone:
Here's the difference between the [D] and [R] party politicians:
[D] == even including those who Dan says claim a 1 deg temp rise over the next century, I'd say over 90% of [D] politicians correctly convey the main climate-science result that humans are causing much of the observed temp. rise. And further, 90% give various values for temp rises that are within the models' range of probable error.
[R] == well over 90% of [R] politicians outright pronounce a stance of climate-science denial, stating that either climate-science results cannot be believed, that humans make no contribution to climate change, or that climate science itself is a non-science racket.
So, you see, there is a REAL political choice: a party where the great majority of its politicians agree and intelligently discuss climate-science results VERSUS a party where the great majority of its politicians irrationally denounce climate-science results for brazenly political purposes and who actually verbally attack the science and the scientists.
It is disingenuous in the EXTREME for Dan to promote the blatant fairytale that both [R]s and [D]s are somehow equally bad about climate science. There is NO such equivalency. And only a Teatard who retains enough vestigial sentience to be embarrassed by the irrational anti-science behavior of his fellow Teatards' would attempt to cover-up and aplogize for their behavior by promoting even more irrational lies about the other political party
Brian F. -- You are pretty much dead-on correct, both about climate science and about Dan B.
Dan likes to cherry pick his science factoids to create an apologetic context for the irrational behavior of his fellow rightwing Teatards. Before I called him out on it, he would even attempt to reference openly climate-denialist websites as sources for his information to counter the science results being PUBLISHED by the actual climate scientists. Before the current version of the IPPC report came out, he was even claiming that it would have to refute most of the major findings of the previous report. Now that the new report is actually out, he of course cannot continue to make those childishly outlandish claims, but instead he now quietly eats crow-shit over it. So, he has begged off that approach now, but instead continues to support the rightwing fairytale by cherry picking the science results he chooses to discuss and by absurdly stating that both political parties are equally as bad about climate science.

Hi All,
I have come up on an opportunity for you all, especially the ones that are coming to the plant swap or the ones that can swing by my house. I have litterally thousands of mixed HYBRID daylilies currently laying on my ground in the driveway. The person that had these said that she cannot take care of them any longer. She is traveling a lot and is not home to weed, etc. She would like a little something out of them. There are NO ORANGE of any kind. Let me repeat... These are all hybrids, no orange, double orange, ruffled orange, etc.... All hybrids. It is a potluck however. She had them planted close enough together that the many clumps had become one clump. There are all colors (except orange) in these daylilies. She will sell them as follows:
Let me know if you are interested, and I will BAG them up (not pot them up) and bring them to the plant swap to you. Of course, you are perfectly welcome to come over and get them. I hope this offer helps you all. This is a GREAT opportunity for those of you trying to get into daylilies. Talk to you soon,
Follow-Up Postings:
Hi, I haven't posted on the forum in awhile, but I know someone who would love to have some of these daylilies. How do we contact you? Thanks, |
hey debbie, I would love to have some if there are any left. Jackie |

Showing 3 reviews for Sony XBA-BT75
Customer Review Summary for Sony XBA-BT75 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
December 23, 2013 | Good value for price |
Review by
Adam from Adelaide, Australia
Great sound quality, high listening volume potential if desired (greater than wired headsets). Cord between earpieces is somewhat stiff, feels fairly durable but sometimes torsion against the back of the neck can force the earpieces out of the ears (mild annoyance). Next/prev track function works with android device (previous BT headset Plantronics Backbeat GO did not have this functionality). Sometimes when adjusting the right earpiece i accidentally hit the button that causes music to pause, if I used the headset for calls as well this could result in accidentally hanging up. Overall a pretty good unit, reasonable priced for the quality.
December 6, 2013 | Really good (but not quite perfect sound), little funny looking |
Review by
Neil from Scottsdale, AZ
The Sony XBA-BT75 sounds great, but I didn't give it 5 stars in that I find that I like to add some bass via equalizer to get a really nice "coloring" of the sound. Also, I cannot wear these with certain gym activities but it's fine just walking on the treadmill or riding a stationary bike. The charging system is fine. Worth the money, but can't say about durability since I've only owned them a month. I actually mainly got them for listening to on airplanes, listening to music when I can't play the stereo (e.g. late at night) and am very happy with them so far.

Review by
Byron from Granada Hills, CA
I Purchased these headphones last week, and I called on the phone, and spoke with a gentleman who was pretty helpful. And even better than that, he did not hesitate to price match the legit sale I had him look up online. It took 2 days to get to me (fast shipping though the 2 days felt like a week cause I didnt order them until Thursday night) which was nice, and I was able to put them to use right away.
The packaging on the headphones was pretty nice. It wasnt over done like you see on some of these "rapper/musician endorsed" headphones, which does not seem to matter to me one way or the other. Sometimes it makes me think they spent all the money on the presentation so at least you have something nice to look at, when you find out the sound sucks. But the presentation was nice, upscale for Sony. It comes with a charging dock/cradle, extra sizes of the ear tips, and a little pouch. A few of my concerns were 1) the Cradle. I would have preferred it to use a generic Micro USB or something I can charge wherever im at, but instead, it needs to be connected to this Sony terminal to re-charge. But after i started reading the set up, I learned that this dock/cradle HAS a built in battery, and can recharge the headphones 2.5 times. so that fixed the first issue. and 2) The volume control is in a weird position when wearing them. After I have used these all week and weekend, These concerns seemed to be irrelevant. I do not frequently change volume levels when I am running or working out, so I just set the volume to the level I wanted, and then did my thing. And I have not needed to charge the device on the go either. I have them fully charged when I leave for the gym, or go on a run, and when I am done for the day, I charge it up again. If i was going to be out using them for an extended period of time, I could just bring the dock, and recharge it there. The comfort to me was not an issue. I had read some reviews where they mentioned it took a while to get use to, but prior to purchasing these, I used the JayBird Freedoms. So this was an easy transition for me. Very similar style and fit. When I got the right tip in, it fit securely and I was able to get a great seal out of them. Bottom line, and MOST important in my opinion, was the sound quality. This is where i think Sony has the ability to excel (when they put forward the effort). These headphones are probably the best sounding BLUETOOTH headphones i have heard. Keep in mind bluetooth. I have some Studio headphones that are definitely better, but those are over the ear, and wired. The clarity from these is amazing. The separation of the instruments and vocals are crystal clear. as distinct as a live concert. They are more detailed then any other bluetooth headphones I have heard. They are full sounding, and I think I am sold now on balanced armature. These are the first balanced armature headphones I have used, and now I know what all the fuss is about. Overall there are a few features I would have liked to have seen done differently, like the volume button, or the carrying case. But when it comes down to it, the sound quality is superb. The bluetooth functions were easy, and are consistent. They are expensive, but i do understand how they justified the cost. I am happy with this purchase, and I would buy these again.

NAGPUR: It wasn't once bitten twice shy for the management of the Dadaji Dhuniwale Uchha Prathamik Shala at Ravi Nagar under the Nagpur Municipal Corporation ( NMC). Only after the second bite did they take action against the two consecutive computer thefts that took place inside the school premises.
The security personnel, Ishwar Dahake, who was absent when TOI visited the school, was learnt to have gone for work at Municipal commissioner's bungalow as usual. He works at Sanjeev Jaiswal's bungalow between 9am and 4am.
According to Dahake's wife, he guards the school premises at night only as the family stays on the school premises as per Jaiswal's order. "My husband sleeps in the classrooms. He was sleeping beside the computer laboratory. The premises are properly locked every day," she said, adding that they heard no suspicious noise.
On Monday, the school management noticed the missing computer screen and other accessories. However, they assumed that it might have been sent for maintenance.
It was only the next day, when the computer teacher Nikhil Gaikwad noticed another missing computer screen that the management smelt the rat. Gaikwad was on leave for three days since Friday. The thieves however, couldn't take the hard disk. There are around half-dozen computers in the laboratory.
Senior inspector ND Ingole of Ambazari police station quizzed the school management. He too expressed his astonishment as there was no sign of breakages.
"This can be an insider's work or the theft might not have taken place at all," said a senior officer.

Geil, like Corsair and XtremeDDR have done a fine job in putting together hand picked chips for higher than average quality memory. Speeds were remarkable as was the overclocking potential of this memory.
With abilities to withstand voltages up to 3.0v on the DDR memory bus, this memory is built to take the most aggressive of punishments. While we were very hard on the DDR-400 memory that was released to us earlier for testing, this new module shows what can be done with a little extra care.
- Fast
- Stable
- Operates 400Mhz with aggressive timings
- Built for extreme overclocking
- Cheaper than Corsair
- Still pricy for memory
- Availability in Australia is limited.

A Tale of Two SpringfieldsWikisimpsons - The Simpsons Wiki
"A Tale of Two Springfields" is the second episode of Season 12 and is the 250th episode of the series overall in both broadcast and production order. SynopsisWhile calling Animal Control over a badger taking residence in Santa's Little Helper's doghouse, Homer discovers that Springfield has two different area codes—and ends up leading a revolt that splits the town in two. PlotWhile feeding Santa's Little Helper, Bart finds a badger in his doghouse. Bart and Lisa try to get rid of it themselves, but are unsuccessful. After Homer suggests they blow up the doghouse with dynamite, Lisa tells him to call animal control instead. When Homer calls them, he gets a tri-tone and a recording indicating that he did not enter the correct area code. Marge informs him that the phone company ran out of numbers, so they had to split Springfield into two area codes. One half keeps the old 636 and the Simpsons' half get the new 939. He is outraged that they changed the code so suddenly (even though Lenny and Carl say that they had weeks of advance warnings, including two weeks at area code camp). While at a town meeting, Lindsey Naegle shows a film (starring talking telephone Phony McRing-Ring) that attempts to convince the audience two area codes are better. The whole town agrees with it. However, Homer stands up, reminding them how terrible it was and points out that the original 636 code was kept by the rich side of town. When Homer fails to blow himself up with the suicide belt he was wearing, he leads a rebellion of the poor and goes off to form a new town. Homer names the town with the new 939 code "New Springfield", while the half of the town with 636 is now called "Olde Springfield". Homer is appointed mayor of New Springfield, but shows disrespect for the office by using his sash as a napkin. While unveiling the Olde Springfield town plaque, Mayor Quimby attempts to bond with New Springfield, but Homer throws a beer can at him. Rivalry quickly ensues between the two towns. On Channel 6, Kent Brockmen insults the inefficiency of New Springfield, and states that New Springfield is less attractive than they [Olde Springfield] are, and while they talk in a sophisticated manner, New Springfield citizens tend to use low-brow expressions like "Oh, yeah?" and "C'mere a minute". Homer says,"Oh, yeah? So they think they're better than us, huh? Bart, c'mere a minute." Bart replies,"You c'mere a minute." and Homer says,"Oh, yeah?" That night, Homer and Bart go to the Nuclear Plant and cut off the power to Olde Springfield. Olde Springfield retaliates by hijacking a beer truck and dumping its contents in the river. Homer and New Springfield strike back by cutting off the river supply into Olde Springfield; however, with the river drained, its inhabitants find gold in the riverbed and buy the Evian bottled water factory. Homer decides to build a giant wall right through town, just like the one Berlin had. When he tells his citizens they do not have enough supplies to get past tomorrow, and that a wave of disease will kill the weak (afterwards, they'll be forced to eat certain breeds of dogs), everyone except the Simpsons leave and join Olde Springfield. Now the mayor of a empty town, Homer boasts to himself that The Who is coming to their town. Bart then points out that they are actually performing in Olde Springfield, making Homer cry,"D'oh!" Bart says that they could try to talk the band into playing in New Springfield. Before heading out, he smashes a shop window and grabs a bottle of chloroform. He and Bart go to the Hotel Pillowmint where The Who is staying, and Homer tells them that Olde Springfield would make them cut their hair, turn their music down, and wear frilly shirts like Keith Partridge. The Who believe him and agree to play in New Springfield. When Olde Springfield is waiting for the band, they find them in New Springfield and prepare to riot. While waiting for Olde Springfield to show up, Homer gives the band a list of songs to play. Roger complains that most songs on the list are by Grand Funk Railroad and that they don't know 'Pac-Man Fever'. Olde Springfield shows up and launches flaming garbage at Homer with a catapult. Roger and John then discover that the feud is over the town being split into two area codes. Roger suggests they buy phones with speed dial, and both towns agree. Homer yells," 'Magic Bus'!" prompting the whole town to shout in agreement. Roger says they'll play 'Magic Bus' if Homer tears down the wall of garbage. Homer then yells," 'Pinball Wizard'!" which makes it clear that he just wants to hear them play. John says,"Oh, hell, I'll do it myself." and turns his amplifier up to a 'whuh-oh!' setting. The Who then play the outro to 'Won't Get Fooled Again', which knocks Homer onto the ground and destroys a section of the wall, emerging the towns again. Homer then blames Marge for everything that happened. Before Marge can object, Homer dips a rag in chloroform and puts it over her face, making her fall unconscious and he dances with her until the credits roll. ProductionThe episode was written by John Swartzwelder and directed by Shaun Cashman. The episode was pitched by John Frink and Don Payne based on Don's mom area where one side would spread rumors of the other side. Larry Doyle then pitched it to because of area code. Originally there would not be Snob vs. Slobs, but accidentally happened. They was backlash from the internet with Homer's interals being visible. The phone from the educational cartoon was voiced by Dan Castellaneta. The decision for who's on whose side was difficult with one time it being between Ned and Homer's house. Pete Townshend did not guest in the episode as he did not know he would be providing his own voice and assumed someone else would like in Yellow Submarine. Roger Daltrey, John Entwistle and Pete's brother, Paul Townshend provided guest voices in the episode. "I knew they didn't do a lot of cartoon work. But I really wanted to meet them, so it was worth a shot," Scully said. After a number of calls were made by the show's casting director in Los Angeles to The Who's managers in London, the group agreed to appear on the show. The animated versions of the band members included Daltrey in his trademark tight t-shirt and long curls, even though Daltrey cut the curls in the mid 1980's as they wanted to use the image The Who they are best known for. The Who recorded their lines in England, but still weighed in on script details. During the production the staff decided to animate Keith Moon instead of the current drummer in honor of him since he died in 1978. There was later an website about What badgers eat. CutsSeveral parts of this episode are cut when it airs in syndication on Sky1 in the UK and Ireland:
ReceptionThe episode got a 3.96 out of 5 ranking 102 out of 373 episodes. Mort of the TV Legion said the episode is a memorable episode. Colin Jacobson of the DVD Movie Guide gave the episode a positive review saying "Maybe it's the low expectations that accompany 21st century Simpsons episodes, but "Tale" works for me. It takes a simple premise and turns in a good number of strong comedic bits. Hey, and a mention of "golden showers" keeps the Season 12 perverted sexual practices streak going!" although he critizised the animaton of The Who other than Daltrey saying that "That's particularly odd in the case of Pete, as he'd gone awfully bald and gray by 2000.". Jennifer Malkowski of the DVD Verdict said the Greatest Moment was A tie between "Sacred bond" and "Who huddle." Nancy Basile of About.com gave the episode a 5 writing "Finally! I loved this episode because, flashy guest stars aside, it got back to the heart and soul of the show." External links

Well, I spent about a week, in the evenings, going thru and packing any extras that I could. Yesterday, Sue came over, and helped go thru the seeds, and I worked on getting a good system set up for the swapping...I am one that has to be organized, and being fair to each person means alot to me. Sue came over at 10:30, and I had already started...and I worked almost all the way thru the night. It is now 2:30 in the afternoon...and I am sooo happy to report.....that I am done with the veggie sorting. WHOO HOO !!! I am taking the evening off, and will start again tomorrow. That is the update for today. I have to say, there are some really nice seeds...so I am sure everyone will be happy with ATLEAST half of what you are getting. I ofcourse hope it is EVERY seed.... Ok, Ill update again SOON !!! |

Wow KYM, take it easy and don't push yourself so hard. I am glad you have a system down but make yourself sick and worn out by sorting. I am glad you took the night off. I know what it is, you just wanted to watch Dancing with the Stars ??????? LOL I am kidding, but want you to know I appreciate you hosting this swap and all of your hardwork. Thank you. Nichol |
- Posted by flwrs4ever 7 R.I. (My Page) on Tue, Mar 10, 09 at 12:31
Nichol, I had to laugh, my teenage daughter wont let me watch dancing with the stars...ha ha. Although I did get to see them walk down the stairs. I have to take my daughter for an MRI today, but i did work on the seeds. I cant take too long, cause my entire kitchen is covered in bags, and seeds...LOL I DID take the seeds and spread them all over the bed, and slept with them, so as they wouldnt be lonely last night...I didnt take them in the shower, as I thought they might start to SPROUT !! LOL Ok, we had a very generous person, send in the new Cherry Rudbeckia, and it is sooo pretty. I am going to offer them, and several more from my seed stash to the person closest to ....... How Many seed Packs have gone into this swap ???? Person closest to, without going over...will win a pack of Cherry Rudbeckia, AND more... (Dont worry, I didnt short the person that sent them in...and If she wins, Ill find something else special to send to her) Ok, so guess away while I am sorting....and Ill let you know soon. Have a great day !! Kym |
- Posted by flwrs4ever 7 R.I. (My Page) on Tue, Mar 10, 09 at 13:06
Ok, here is a bit of a tease......and a look at how I have been sorting...dont get worried if you see numbers on bags lower then what you sent in...I told you I am organized, and I have to have counts for everything...LOL We are in the middle of painting the kitchen blue, the area that is white, is where my border is going to go. I hope you enjoyed the sneak peek....so is anyone going to guess how many seeds we have ??? ttys, Kym |
- Posted by grovespirit Zone 11 (My Page) on Tue, Mar 10, 09 at 13:40
Kym- I'd love to guess at the count but I need some more info first. 1. Do the seeds you have packed and ready to use in this swap count in the total? 2. Do the seeds that sueirish hand-delivered to you count in the total? Depending on how you answer those 2 Q's above, my seedcont guess will differ! |
- Posted by conniesc 5 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Tue, Mar 10, 09 at 13:44
I will take a guess at 1080 original seed packets. |
- Posted by kamiljablo 6 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Tue, Mar 10, 09 at 14:54
I am going 1899 seed packets!!! Oh LOOK in the third pic its a paper bag with my name on it!!! Kamil |
- Posted by gardenmom2 IN Zone 6 (My Page) on Tue, Mar 10, 09 at 15:52
Ok, I am laughing. I hope your daughters MRI went ok. My son gets to watch a couple dances and then goes to bed and last night he told me that EDETTA needed a new shirt. I was like What? and he said (he is 6) he said look mom, you can see her back. All of her back and she needs a new shirt. Then on the way to bed he was giggling. I asked him what and he kept saying that girl. FInally I figured out, HE HAS A CRUSH ON HER> He is 6. So I was flippin a little. He was giggling and red faced and said she was very pretty but she needed clothes on. I think it embarassed him that he liked her and she was skimpily dresed. I am glad, but Oh MY. He is ONLY 6! Hope you are having fun sleeping with the seeds. |
- Posted by flwrs4ever 7 R.I. (My Page) on Tue, Mar 10, 09 at 17:46

I am guessing 1640. I know. I don't think I like that, either. His dad just laughed of course and said at least it was a girl. haha. No offense, but I was just like UGH--Men. I think he is even proud of him or something. LOL |

I'll guess 1037, This is fun-Again! cAROL |
1,537 seeds |
How Exciting to see the pics! I also know how much of a pain it is to do the sorting since I hosted a seed swap for OBF earlier this year. I would put something in a bag and then realize it was on someone else's wish list and then I would have to go fishing for seeds to find that pkt. Or I would put something in a bag and realize I already put the same kind of seed in there before, and so on. So it really is a job! I'm going to guess 1360. |
- Posted by gardenscout z6 NE RI (My Page) on Wed, Mar 11, 09 at 20:41
Hey! I sent a big packet of seeds weeks ago and you have me on the dropout list! You had me marked as received on an earlier list on the other thread, but now I am on the deadbeat list. I even put my screename on the package. Can you look again for my package? Is it too late? |
- Posted by crazypalmlady OH5 (My Page) on Wed, Mar 11, 09 at 21:29
OK I say the total is 1836 |
- Posted by flwrs4ever 7 R.I. (My Page) on Wed, Mar 11, 09 at 21:52
Gardenscout YES< I have your seeds, so sorry !! I didnt have your screen name written down when I updated the list.. I am so sorry, they are safely here...and being sorted. |
- Posted by gardenscout z6 NE RI (My Page) on Wed, Mar 11, 09 at 22:06
Okay, no problem. After all the buildup and the teasing with the pics above, I was getting all excited about it. The mystery, the intrigue... |

- Posted by jblanton08 7/western NC (email@example.com) on Thu, Mar 12, 09 at 17:13

- Posted by flwrs4ever 7 R.I. (My Page) on Thu, Mar 12, 09 at 17:37
***********UPDATE******* Looks like I will be mailing out the beginning of the week..I hope no one is disappointed, but I spent over 5 hours sorting today, and yes, i am a little slower then others, but I am really trying to make sure everyone has a nice selection. I have a meeting with our Lawyer tomorrow, so it will take some time away from the sorting. Im a little over half way done with the flower seeds, and then need to work on the extras...and WOW, did I pack a lot of them...there may be a chance you get something back in the extra part of the swap that you sent in, if so, pass it on. ok, just for fun, can you guess the top 2 kinds of seeds that were sent in ?? I think Ill be seeing them in my sleep tonight...LOL (flower seeds we are guessing on) I made a real nice pack of seeds up for the person that wins the contest of HOW MANY SEEDS CAME IN... Ok, headed off to eat dinner and rest...then I might go roll in the seeds again...LOL |
- Posted by floodthelast 5 N. OH (My Page) on Thu, Mar 12, 09 at 18:34
Hmmm, 999 all together. As for the most popular, double click cosmos. At least I've been wanting those for awhile. Glad you are keeping the seeds warm, I tried to find my name on a bag, but I guess I'll just keep daydreaming about it. Good luck with the lawyer, there are almost no happy reasons to meet with one. I hope your daughter is well. Six huh, was he a flirt at birth? My son is, but his brother got over that around 7 or 8. That's when girls got cooties. I will make it through the weekend etc. Thank you for the mini updates and suspense. |
- Posted by gardenmom2 IN Zone 6 (My Page) on Thu, Mar 12, 09 at 19:12
Yeah, he has always been a flirt. He has a dimple an I think he knows it. BUT, he is to the point where he will not talk to girls that are older than him. Although he does like a girl in his class that he says is very nice and pretty. I sure hope we get to the cootie stage. I feel safer there. LOL |
i'm gonna guess 1125 pkts, with double click rose bonbon cosmos & sweet basil as the top two sent in. can't wait!! |
- Posted by lisam627_ohio_z6 Z5 OH (My Page) on Thu, Mar 12, 09 at 20:25
Hi Kym...thanks for sharing your pics. My guess is 1700 and I would guess the two top seeds sent in were zinnias and lettuce. I'm probably not even close - but that's my guesses and I'm stickin to it. Thanks for all your hard work! - Lisa |
- Posted by sassybutterfly_2008 7 NorthWest GA (My Page) on Fri, Mar 13, 09 at 11:20
Hi everyone! hmmm I'm gonna say 1264 is my packet count guess. Top 2 seeds... wow, that's tough... I'm gonna guess Cherry Brandy Rudbeckia (or maybe that's just wishful thinking! LOL) and Basil of some sort. Happy Friday everyone!! |

Top two seeds sent in: Sunflowers and Bush Beans. Maybe. |

I guess corn and beans |
- Posted by just1morehosta 5 (My Page) on Fri, Mar 13, 09 at 19:34

- Posted by kamiljablo 6 (email@example.com) on Fri, Mar 13, 09 at 19:42
I guess basil and cosmos. Kamil |
- Posted by greenthumbgrow 7 - MD (My Page) on Fri, Mar 13, 09 at 20:42

***************UPDATE************************ Ok, envies are in the mail...all but the 5 that sent in tiny tiny envies..LOL They are ready and will be out in the morning. THE WINNER OF THE GAME IS...............JAYNINE !!! whoooo hooooo !!!!! I WAS ABLE TO REPACK OVER 300 PACKS OF SEEDS. OUR GRAND TOTAL WAS 1,129 WHICH IS A TON FOR COMMERCIAL SEEDS. WAY TO GO ! Jaynine, can you please email me your address again.(Jaynine guessed 1125 packs) The two most popular seeds sent in this swap were....SWEET PEA and Zinnia. Sunflower was a close third. As for veggies...there wasnt too many repeats. I guess Id have to say Tomatos and Squash. THANKS SOO MUCH TO ALL YOU FOR JOINING, AND I WISH YOU ALL A VERY SPECIAL GROWING SEASON. PLEASE, post here when you receive your envie, and add one or two seed that you were excited to recieve. ALso, there were a few 10 cent packs, or old packs, they were returned to the sender. Dont worry, you still received a few extras ! (there was a few people that sent in a little extra postage, I normally just send it right back, but my father went to the PO for me, soo, if you see that your envie came and the postage was less, and you want me to return postage, just send me an email. I have no problem sending it to you.) For those of you that plan to do more RR, PLEASE remember.. 1.Postage send one or two extra stamps ( you almost always end up getting more then sent in) 2.Add your screen name to ALL packs of seeds ( It sure would have made my life much easier) 3. Add your screen name to the ENVIE and to a letter inside. ( It took a lot of time to locate names, to screen names) 4. TAPE your seed envies closed. There were many envies leaking seeds. 5. Send in a little larger envie, for room for extras. |

I got my seeds too, and am very grateful to Kym for being so considerate of my tiny growing space! I received a fascinating assortment, including plenty of small and dwarf plants. It's impossible for me to pick just one favorite. Some of the most exciting seeds I got include: 2 Dwarf Tomatoes- including "Polish Dwarf". SUPER AWESOME! :) A rare solid red Romaine lettuce named "Silvia." Totally thrilled to have received this one! :) Nasturtium "Dwarf Cherry Rose" - Wanted to buy this at first, but reluctantly passed it over to save some money. Glad you sent it to me, because I LOVE it! Kym, |

Thanks for all your hard work. I got alot of new things to try but my ALL Time Favorite was the Clarkia. I planted them last year from a trade and loved them. I didn't have any seeds this year. They were the one flower I really wanted to plant. Thanks again and if you host it again next year I'm in. |

I received my goodie bag,wow,i am blow away with all the different seeds i received,i did not send in that many,but i sure did get a lot in return,thank you all for your giving spirit,and Kym,for working so hard on this swap,i know there is no way i could do it. My favorit was the Lavender,i wanted to try this so bad,i did receive a few in my first trade,but they were not for my zone,this time it was, and i just sowed them this morning.Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa One thing i was not sure of,when the swap said commercial seed,i thought we had to buy the seed,so that is what i did,sent in the whole packs,is it proper to send traded commercial seed? At the beggining of this trading-swaping,i thought you should sow every thing some one sent to you,and it was not "nice" to trade a gifted seed,i have since found out,that is what ya all do,ha ha,thus,so many seeds in your stash. I am still not sure how you do the Birthday thing,is it ok, to send small re-packed seeds to you for your Birthdays? I am going through my seeds again right now,gotta see what else i can do up today. Thanks again every one,this really is a great way to spend a rainy day. |

Carol, for the BIRTHDAY SWAP, any seeds from trades, or your garden, or commercial are welcomed. For this swap, it needed to be commercial seeds only from 08 and 09. It was preferred that they were ones YOU bought, but you were suppose to send in "leftovers" hence the name..LOL SOO, you should have planted some, and sent some in. If You ever have questions, feel free to email me ! Id always be willing to help . If someone sent in a WHOLE pack of seeds for this swap, I sat and repacked them..that is how I was able to send soo many back. |

Thanks Kym, I should have asked,but i just thought we were to sow all seeds we received,and were suppose to buy all the others,ha ha. Oh well, now i know,i bet there are others out there who do not know how to do the trade-swap,thing. Is there a site i do not kow about that explaines all the the rules? Thank you Kym, cAROL |

The Disgrace of a Stock Lifetime
The essence of what really went wrong was that Morgan Stanley favored the sellers more than it should. Why that was, we don't know. Was it because at the last minute things had gotten so bad at Facebook that it just had to put on a big show and tell only some how bad things really were, but rely on moronic over-the-transom retail to keep the deal in the high $30s?
Was it because the Facebook execs demanded this pricing? Was it because the syndicate desk actually thought it had demand at these prices even as many retail execs indicate that they were overwhelmed at the last minute with stock? I find it hard to believe that syndicate didn't know how bad the deal would fare, given that some branches were given allocations well in excess of what demand was, a sure sign that syndicate knew things had gotten out of hand.
Remember how the process works. In a putative hot deal you should only get a fraction of what you put in for. If you put in for 10,000 shares you are hopeful to get 1,000. If you get 2,500, that's a huge win. But if you get 5,000 you begin to get nervous because it means there may not be as much oversubscription -- meaning demand -- as you thought. If you put in for 10,000 and you got 10,000, you know you're sunk.
But in this deal, I know brokers who got well in excess of their 10,000, to the tune of a factor of twice or even three times what was requested, with the idea that somehow you could give your clients a real break by getting in.
Allocations like that show pure greed, typically on the part of the issuer, because Morgan Stanley makes the same amount of money either way. But it also could be because Morgan Stanley totally botched the deal as it knew that the fundamentals had gotten much worse than they thought, and they winked and nodded to their biggest clients in a legal but horribly unfair way. Either way, greed on the part of the issuer or failure to gauge real demand on top of faltering fundamentals by Morgan Stanley, the individual investor was the huge loser. And he has stayed the biggest loser. Maybe the 13-year-old-and-under crowd will help ameliorate the downturn in the fundamentals that the deal is certainly signaling. But it is a little too late to help the individual who was the mainstay of our deep markets. Just a shameful exercise all the way around, including the admonishing of the buyers who believed that the bankers had it right when they most certainly had it wrong.Select the service that is right for you!

We often get asked to talk about what we do at Teen Lifeline. There are several ways to explain it and you can find some of them on our Support Groups or Teen Parents page. However, I find that people often want to know more practically what we are up to and for that I have found a story that I feel communicates well what our teen support groups are all about.
I was reading a book called Take the Stairs by Rory Vanden. In it he talks about being from Colorado and the he sees life lessons in nature.
In Colorado you have the beautiful Rocky Mountains. As majestic and amazing as they are they can also be terrifying and daunting at times. This is also for many of the animals that live on and around the mountains. One such case of majesty that comes with these mountains are storms. These storms are huge, they roll in and you can watch them as they form and come over the tops of the mountains then roll across the landscape or over your head as the case may be.
As beautiful as these may be animals must deal with these elements in their own way. Two such cases are the buffalo and cattle. Both live on the plains and, no doubt, enjoy the weather much of the time, they also face the storms that come but in very different ways.
CommentsWe are so honored to add a third member to our staff. I hope you will join us in welcoming her when you see her or by sending an email, after all communication is going to be her role with us.
Karlie Duke (Hatchett) joins us after just completing an internship with us this summer. She graduated from ACU this past May with a degree in Communications and a minor in Family Studies and English. She is thrilled to be with us and we are excited about what her role means for us as an organization.
These past 6 years have been amazing and if you had asked me in 2008 when we began where we would be right now I could not have predicted what is happening. The request for our groups continues to grow and students responses are very encouraging. In addition the response from schools continues to be very positive. In fact you can see that in the survey results Karlie helped lay out this summer. (Hint: It's good when all the schools want us back.)

Several wives of current and former Arizona Cardinals football players, including the wives of Matt Ware, Karlos Dansby and Jerheme Urban, are slated for a charity shopping spree at Sam's Club in Chandler Thursday.
The women, who represent the Off the Field Players' Wives Association, will choose $10,000 worth of gifts at Sam's Club, 1375 S. Arizona Ave., for 10 families selected by the Salvation Army, according to Jessica Gonzalez, event publicist. The event is slated for 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The shopping spree is meant to fill baskets with clothes, household products and toys to brighten the season for needy local families. Each family will also receive a $200 gift card for a holiday meal and other food.
The players' wives also will ring bells and help with the traditional Salvation Army Red Kettle Drive, and assist in wrapping gifts.

A financial source familiar with the negotiations confirmed the for-sale rumblings, but declined to provide the name of the suitor or a potential purchase price.
"There are rumors out there, but I can't confirm or deny them," Michael Groveman, chief executive officer of Blass, told WWD.
UCC Capital was retained last week by Blass as banker. Robert D'Loren, president and ceo of UCC, declined comment.
UCC Capital Corp. is the investment firm that structured the management-led takeover of Blass, which was accomplished through a bond offering tied to its trademarks. Groveman, who was part of the management-led takeover, is also on UCC's advisory board.
Mergers and acquisition specialists who focus on the fashion industry noted that Haresh T. Tharani, chairman of the company's largest licensee, The Resource Club Ltd., owns a 60 percent equity stake in Blass, while Groveman has the balance. One M&A specialist said "Tharani would like to cash out so he could then buy other things." Another source said "Tharani also owns a sleepwear business, and is interested in expanding his sleepwear operation."
Groveman and Tharani bought Blass from the designer in 1999 through a securitization that was the brainchild of D'Loren. At the time, Groveman was chief financial officer.
One factor that could affect the timing of the sale, and possibly its valuation, concerns ownership of the Blass trademarks.
In the 1999 securitization deal, Tharani and Groveman financed their purchase of Blass through the issuance of $25 million in asset-backed bonds. The bonds were secured by the Blass trademarks and licenses, which were put into an entity where there's no risk of bankruptcy. The bonds, monetized by the royalty stream generated from the licenses, are self-liquidating and due to be paid off in 2009.
Whether the bonds are an issue would depend on how the deal was structured. An investment banker with a focus on the fashion industry, who requested anonymity, said he is familiar with deals where securitizations are not a problem as long as their structure includes a provision allowing for the bondholders of the secured debt to be paid off early.

12 Dates Of Christmas
6. Visit Santa's village. Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. You're never too old to stop believing. Take a clue from Buddy the Elf and stop by and see Santa. Stand in line and take a picture. It'll be one for the memory books. Afterwards, go to a nearby restaurant for dessert. Who says Santa's the only one who can enjoy milk and cookies?
7. Listen to the music of the season. Spend a night with the minstrels. Whether it's a community troupe, a university club or the Philharmonic. Let the music of the season connect you and inspire you. Just leave the singing to the pros and the American Idol contestants.
8. Have a painting party. Around the country, painting events are becoming a popular date night event. Channel your inner Picasso and learn how to paint the piece du jour. It's a great open environment with little pressure.
9. Book a sleigh ride. If you are lucky enough to live in a snowy, mountain area, let Rudolph guide your sleigh tonight. Depending on the experience, you can add dinner to the package or be creative. Pack a picnic and enjoy a thermos of hot cider and fresh baked treats.
10. Trim the tree. Visit the Christmas tree stand. Many times, they will have a carnival or fair, too. Take a spin on the rides, enjoy the funnel cake and be a kid again. Share fun childhood stories and happy memories. Go on a quest to find the Charlie Brown Christmas tree of the park.
11. Ho ho ho! Be a little jolly and take in a comedy show. It's a great way to determine each other's sense of humor and if the comedian is good, you two won't need jingle bells to be laughing all the way.
12. Watch a movie under the stars. Rather than go to a theater, watch a holiday themed movie in a unique setting. Your local drive thru, town square or arts center may be showing outdoor movies. Grab some blankets and bundle up while you enjoy the show.

Phil Jagielka is aiming to reclaim his place in the Everton side but accepts that it will be difficult to dislodge John Heitinga or Sylvain Distin.
The 29-year-old has found his chances limited by the partnership of Heitinga and Distin at the heart of the Toffees defence.
He was dropped for the semi-final defeat against Liverpool despite having played the three previous Premier League games.
Everton now have just five league games left before the term ends and the former Sheffield United stopper is determined to force his way into David Moyes' team.
"If my role is to keep John and Sylvain playing as well as they can - or to give them a rest for a game - I'll do that," he told the Liverpool Echo.
"It's not ideal for me, but we are part of a team and a squad that want to do well."

public bool iLOCertificateValidation(Object sender, X509Certificate cert, X509Chain chain, SslPolicyErrors Errors) {
//we don't care about certificate validity, we just want to read what the server provides
return true;
However that does not seem to work for ilo 2 machines, returning error 404 not found.
I have it narrowed to the http address: https://192.168.0.100/ribcl
If you input that into the browser, for ilo 3 and 4 it returns some xml but error 404 on ilo 2.
If running the ilo 2 scripts from the command line, the xml response is correct but I need to get that into my winform app.
Does anyone know if the RIBCL address syntax https://192.168.0.100/ribcl
is different for ilo 2?

Graves Farm is located in the northeast corner of Missouri. We currently raise Piedmontese-cross & other cross-bred fat calves, Berkshire-cross hogs, and Boer-cross goats. None of our animals are fed antibiotics, ionophores, steroids, or hormones. Piedmontese cattle originated in the Piemonte region of Italy. This is the only breed of cattle possessing two copies of the inactive Myostatin ,or "tenderness", gene. During studies conducted by the USDA (U.S. Department of Agriculture) Piedmontese animals continually outperformed other breeds for tenderness and leanness. Piedmontese beef is also lower in saturated fat than other breeds and lower in cholesterol than even chicken.
Berkshire hogs, a heritage breed, originated in Britain and have become very rare in the last fifty years. Berkshire pork is widely accepted as the highest quality of pork available on the market today due to its juiciness, flavor, and tenderness.
Boer goats were developed in South Africa specifically for meat production, unlike other breeds, which were generally dual-purpose. Boer goat meat is mild flavored and tender along with high levels of iron and relatively low levels of fat.
We are proud of what we produce and hope that you will call us if you are interested or have questions.
We don't currently have a retail location or stand but we can be contacted by phone or e-mail.
