2010 Honda Pilot
pilotguy2 Posts: 14Are you sure the camera lens isn't just dirty? I live in CT and it snows a lot -- during and after storms I have to clean off the lens because the view gets obstructed by all the dirt and grime from the roads. I never have an issue with the handle obstructing the view -- when clean, the view is crystal clear.

denver5357 Posts: 319I'm not very good at math, but I do OK at logic! I have cleaned that lens until it could be used for police sting operations. There is still, at the bottom of the screen, the door handle. It is easy to define in full day light. I've looked at it more since my initial post and it is probably the bottom 5% of the picture vs. 10-15%. But that's clearly what it is. I'm living with it.
wkwk Posts: 10We have a 2010 Honda Pilot and recently we hit a deer so we had to replace the front bumper. We just got it back today and noticed that there are 2 small (size of nickel) holes on either side of the fog lights, near the outer cornera of the front bumper. The guy said that they're for parallel parking sensors which I've never heard of.
I went to check the pictures I took of the damage before we took it in for it to get fixed and there weren't any holes on the original bumper. I searched for pictures on the internet and did infact saw some pictures showing two tiny circular covers near the fog lights, but some pictures don't have them. I'm confused.
I'm just worried that we got an aftermarket bumper. Does anyone know anything about it? Thanks in advance! -

dmpatter3 Posts: 2I just bought a 2010 Pilot EX-L with RES and was wondering if you can change the auto-lock settings, more specifically the auto-unlock settings? I noticed in the manual you can change the settings if you have the touring model. But, can you have the doors unlock when you put it in park, or open the drivers door with the EX-L?
nace Posts: 45hi folks, consumer reports, shows that the pilot fuel economy is poor. also it states that "road noise is quite pronounced".
pilot owners how accurate do you feel, are the above statements?
im trying to do some due dillagence home work before i enter a honda dealership.
your comments are appreciated. -
thomasr1950 Posts: 74I have a 10 Pilot EX-L, road noise i don't have a lot. It seems quiter than my 08Accord EX-L. Gas mileage i get 22mpg on interstate driving 75mph, intown about 16-17. I hear that is good for a Pilot. Everyone i talk to says to consider the size/weight of the vehicle & what it's dsigned for. I don't know what mpg other SUV's get. I'm happy with my Pilot, lots of room, comfortable to drive, has plenty of power.

thomasr1950 Posts: 74Twice in 2 months my battery has gone bad in my Pilot. I can see once, the back window or door may not have been shut al the way causing the light to come on inside. But twice? The dealer told my wife they had problems with the key fob draining too much from the battery, huh? Now even if the interior lights stayed on i don't think it would run down a new battery. I had a 09 Tacoma & the map light stayed on all night but the truck started. I'm not buying either story, not on a new vehicle regardless of the model. I've done business with the same dealer since 1983 except for 2 Nissan so i don't think the dealer would blow smoke either, there is no reason for them to. They have always taken care of any issue we have had. The dealer installed a new battery today so we will see. I'd like other opinions from owners, dealers or techs. Thanks in advance.

trm61 Posts: 2Hi, I'm looking to lease a 2011 4WD Honda Pilot EX-L RES. The dealer indicates that they can do the RES as a non factory option and save around $20/mo. It's not as neat, requires tuning to FM and front and back can't then have separate tuning. I also worry about resale down the road. Thoughts?
I would like to get current residual and money factor for both the EX-L and the EX-l RES for 15K. Thanks! -
krs2avr Posts: 6I need your comments here... lately, my Pilot middle row seats are so noisy, unless someone is sitting in them. If I drive on uneven road (which is the norm in NJ), the noise is really annoying!!! I have moved them back and forth, and "re locked" them, but it still happens. They vibrate and "knock" unless I am on smooth road. Anyone else have this???? Just looking for information before I call my dealer.
Thanks! -
tornadog Posts: 49I just finished 1 year on my 2010 Honda Pilot EX. Everything has been great except for the abysmal mileage, and now I am thinking if I may have gotten a dud car, if thats possible. I primarily use it for in city driving with maybe a long trip once a month. So I have covered 12600 miles. Have been through 2 services(a1, and b1). My average mileage now is 12.5 mpg, which is way worse than what they advertise. I have asked the guys at the dealership and they dont have an explanation. I tried pretty much driving like a grandma making sure the tachometer never goes over 2, but no go!!!
denver5357 Posts: 319This one is always hard to answer without excruciating detail about where and how you drive. But I will say we have a 2010 Touring and I get about 14 mpg. ALL of my trips are short, 2-5 miles, with an occasional 25-mile run to the airport. One time I took it on an hour-long, highway trip and measured just that mileage and it was a little over 19. So the Pilot is *capable* of better mpg. It just has to have the right conditions. Meanwhile, around town is pretty poor. But for a car that big, with that design ... not a surprise. I still really like our Pilot. It has been a great minivan replacement with snow capability (we're in Colorado). We have been fortunate in that we drive so little that I only have to fill up every two weeks or so.
robr2 BostonPosts: 8,1052 miles to work, 2 miles back home, 2 miles to school, 2 miles back home, 2 miles to work, 2 miles back home, 2 miles to school, 2 miles home, 2 miles to work, 2 miles to home = 20 miles per day
That is close to the ultimate in driving that will lead to poor MPG. Your vehicle probably doesn't even get to the optimum temperature for good MPG. IMHO, it's not going to get any better if you only drive like that.
My wife drives 2 miles to the train and 2 miles home most days in our Ody. If she gets 15 mpg, it's a good sign.

I couldn't pass up the opportunity to post this terrific space styled with classic pieces from Design Within Reach, even if it does have more white than I typically prefer:
Thankfully, the key upholstered pieces in this room–the Theatre Sofa (which happens to be sale priced at the time of this post) and the Barcelona Chair and Ottoman–are all available in other color choices, so someone like me who prefers something other than white can select what suits his style.
Yes, this post also gives me the opportunity to provide a bit of focus on my new and growing online shop. I'm honored and, frankly, excited to be in partnership with Design Within Reach and able to bring you many of their iconic items. The idea is simple: if you find a DWR product and purchase it through Japanese Trash, I get a small commission which helps me keep the site going. I promise not to inundate you with promo posts like this; I want the shop to be an added bonus for both of us, not a burden on you or me. Most of the time you'll get the same kinds of posts I always provide, some of which will have the same "shop this post" information at the bottom as this one has, which will let you find and purchase some of the items featured in that post. I'm currently working with both DWR and Amazon.com to bring you the kinds of products that fit my masculine design aesthetic–and I hope to be able to expand to include other great retailers. I'm also folding my Great.ly shop items into the Japanese Trash shop so you can continue to support their boutique makers. Happy shopping!

Re: Help. Trying to identify this boat...Picture attached
I looked at a DE38 in San Pedro a few years ago that had a wooden rail (taffrail?) around the back of the cockpit rather than a SS pushpit. It was one of the very few "modern" boats I've seen where that sort of thing actually looked like it belonged there.
Never forget them. Do something to prevent it from happening again.

Fort Lewis College joins telescope network that could help prevent a demolition derby in space Monday, November 07, 2011
Since the advent of space exploration and satellite technology the area just above Earth's atmosphere is turning into something resembling a busy highway in the middle of a junkyard. Knowing what's flying around our planet and keeping the country's satellites out of harm's way is a critical national security issue. Helping in this national security issue is a newly formed partnership between higher education institutions in Colorado and Chile, including Fort Lewis College in Durango, CO.

Has anyone had any success planting any varieties of yellow-flowering azaleas or rhododendrons in zone 6 or MA? I have had some success with Girard's Pleasant White azaleas, and I would like to add some yellow flowering plants to my blue/yellow/white flowering garden next spring (I'm trying to 'think spring' even though it's still November). I was also thinking about possibly planting Kalmia latifolia 'Snowbird'. Any ideas for other compatible plants? Thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
What about Rhododendron luteum? Native Eastern American species come in yellow, too. |
Jdumas- Here are the two little leaf rhodos I plant for my gardening clients here in NH Z4-5 when I need a yellow. They sucessfully winter over and thrive. 'Mary F.' is truly yellow. 'Jerhico' is a pale yellow to start and then ages to white; this is OK because if you have bright blooms on other plants coming on, pale yellow can look very washed out. The soft white goes with just about anything. I did plant the little 'Tow Head' once in a rock garden, but it was a disappointing greenish yellow--rather sickly looking. Haven't used that one again. R. 'Mary Fleming' R. 'Jericho' The American Rhodo Society lists both of these plants as doing well in Z6; see their state chapter charts below. They have a very useful site. http://www.rhododendron.org/performers6.htm Also check out the Northern Lights series of deciduous azaleas--very bold in the early spring landscape, blooms come early before the foliage: 'Lemon', 'Golden', and 'Spicy' are all yellows. I had a treat this year--the Northern Lights we planted in June for a customer, bloomed in September; we saw both the flowers and the foliage together. Extremely lovely. Ginger |
Rh. 'Capistrano' alledgedly should be 'a real yellow' with no pink, orange or salmon tint in it. I have to see yet actual color of mine, which I bought this year. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Capistrano
jdumas; a hearthy welcome to the Gardenweb and the Azalea/Rhodie forum; Each year the Massachussetts Chapter of the American Rhododendron Society submits a 'group' order to Van Veen Nurseries of Portland Oregon, a wholesale grower . These plants are mostly yearlings from rooted cuttings. These are hight quality plants at an exceptional prices. Here is 2005 possible 'yellow' hybrid selection that is available for members of that chapter; ------------------------------------- If they dont grow it there, it probably doesn't exist unless it is very new. Check out the best web site in the world about Rhodies , and especially for zones 4-7. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Mass Chapter
Many thanks to Ginger, Ron, Ego45, and Tadeusz for a wealth of helpful information. I was particularly impressed by the vibrant yellow of 'Capistrano', 'Goldkrone' and 'Golden Lights' varieties, but I also like the paler yellow of 'Jericho', 'Goldsworth Yellow' and others. To make the decision harder I really liked the photos of 'Lackamas Blue' that I've seen, too. I'm trying to be consistent with the yellow & blue pairing that I already have in the same general area of the yard. In the spring there are daffodil and forsythia paired with muscari and squill; while in the summer there are yellow daylilies and coreopsis paired with lavender, caryopteris, hibiscus, salvia and veronica, among other things. I was hoping to brighten up the shadier areas with something that contrasts with the white azaleas I already have. It looked so much more colorful this year, considering that the previous owners had just yews and privet, exclusively. But, in fairness, they did add a beautiful pink rhododendron on the other side of the yard that was obviously well cared for. It's fun to plan and research now, and I'm looking forward to more improvements and more color in the years ahead. Thanks again. -John |
I will second that comment on 'Mary Fleming' Rhododendron. I have had one for nearly ten years and it is a super variety. A 'small leaf' variety, by the way. And the deciduous azaleas would be great to look through to pick a yellow. There are many. One I like is 'Lemon Twist' which again I have had for a number of years. I am about equi-distant between Boston and the Cape. Come on down in the spring and I could show you both in bloom and doing very well. 'Hong Kong' I have had for years (a Rhodo) and it is good to fair. Consider membership in the Rhodo Society for much info and as has been pointed out 'group purchases'. We have a nice display of Rhododendrons at the Mass Hort Society site in Wellesley called 'Elm Bank'. I do not know what varieties are growing there but good ones I am sure. Les |
- Posted by isabella__MA z5_MA (My Page) on Sat, Dec 11, 04 at 2:13
A great late summer yellow flowering azalea that I have in my front yard is Weston's Lemon Drop. |
I want to thank all of you again for your helpful suggestions. I did end up buying the 'Capistrano' variety and planted it earlier this spring. It really looks wonderful and healthy. Very dense with leaves and tons of buds that are just beginning to open right now. I have lots and lots of galium odoratum planted all around it and the small white blossoms (that are just opening also) really help to make the yellow of the Capistrano stand out. I would highly recommend this variety, and I'm told that it is quite hardy too. |
- Posted by mainegrower Z5b ME (My Page) on Mon, May 16, 05 at 5:26
Capistrano is a very nice variety but if you would like a deeper yellow, try Goldkrone. This has been completely hardy here for at least 10 years although it did not bloom fully after the January 04 conditions. Goldkrone likes/needs considerable shade, but it is a deeper, more saturated yellow than any other rhodendron I know of that can be grown in New England. |

I am building a storage cabinet out of 3/4 and 1/2 MDF.
It will be 7'high x 6' wide x 24" deep and it will be painted. The ends and middle will be 3/4", the front and back will be 1/2", the shelves will be 3/4" and the doors will be 1/2". I have most of the stuff cut out already, then someone asked me how I was going to put it together. I said screws. Then the person said that screws might not work that well. So my question is what type of fastner to use. Nail, screws, dowel, biscuits, glue, gum, or duck tape. I have never worked with MDF. Bernie |
Follow-Up Postings:
Biscuits would be a good choice for most of it, though you might try other fasteners for attaching the back. Be aware that this cabinet will be very dependent on its back for rigidity and strength, so attach it well. Also, it's very easy to split MDF when screwing into the edges, so pilot them if you ever do this. Have you considered what sort of hinges you'll use for your 1/2" doors? Most are designed for 3/4" material. |
- Posted by always-beezee (My Page) on Sat, May 30, 09 at 20:17
I really haven't thought too much about the hinges. I was thinking of bolting them instead of screws. The two bottom doors will be 30" x 54" and the top two will be 28" x 30". I do know they will have to be substantial because of the weight of the doors. Bernie |
- Posted by sombreuil_mongrel (My Page) on Sat, May 30, 09 at 21:00
Screws can work into the flats of MDF, but fail into edges. Dowels + glue are the standard for 90 degree joints. If things are to be hidden, staples and glue can be used. Biscuits are less good in MDF than in ply, because the pockets in edges can still split, and if right at the edge of a flat, they can shear off. I hate the stuff. There, I said it. Casey |

What about using 2 x 2 for the interior frame work and using that to screw into. |
You shouldn't need an "interior frame work" at all. A faceframe would be a good idea, both to prevent wracking (which is the biggest danger to the carcass joints) and also to support the shelves so that they don't sag. I agree w/Casey that screws into the edges are a bad idea where significant strength is required. Small screws could be used to attach an applied back, where stresses are smaller and more forgiving, but don't use them between the shelves/top/bottom and sides. As to the benefits of dowels over biscuits... meh. The most important thing is to design the cabinet so that it doesn't rely on super-strong joints, because such joints are pretty much impossible with MDF. Good luck! |
Even plywood is stronger than MDF, especially when shelf loads are involved. Do a search for 'sagulator' to find out how your shelves will behave. |

Thanks for all of your suggestions. I think I'm going to go with the 2 x 2 interior frame route. I'm more comfortable doing it that way. After all, it's just a storage cabinet not one of those fancy ones with lacy curtains on it. Thanks, Bernie |
Confirmat screws and glue work well with MDF, with pilot holes. If I was building, I'd dado the sides to accept the shelf ends. Glue and screw. Then at a minimum a poplar edging on the fronts of the shelves, or to purdy it up, a poplar face frame on the entire cabinet. Hinge screws often have fine threads, they can easily work loose when driven into the "end grain" of an MDF panel. Consider face mounted hinges instead of edge mounted. |

Yes, the metropolis of Kamloops really needs to align with Vancouver and increase its parking meter fees. After all, our erstwhile mayor (Mel Rothenburger) said so.
And that should be enough to sway those councillors and the real mayor into falling in line with whatever our one-time worship Mr. Rothenburger advises.
They just couldn't do it without his vast wisdom and experience from when, as the mayor, he didn't up the fees.

Hungarian National Bank
This article is outdated. (December 2011) |
Headquarters | Budapest |
Coordinates | 47°30′13″N 19°3′7″E / 47.50361°N 19.05194°E |
Established | 24 June 1924 |
Governor | György Matolcsy |
Central bank of | Hungary |
Currency | Hungarian forint HUF (ISO 4217) |
Preceded by | Royal Hungarian State Bank |
Website | Official site of Magyar Nemzeti Bank |
The Hungarian National Bank (Hungarian: Magyar Nemzeti Bank) is the central bank of Hungary. The principal aim of the bank is to retain price stability. It is also responsible for issuing the national currency, the forint, controlling the cash circulation, setting the Central Bank base rate, publishing official exchange rates and managing the national reserves of foreign currency and gold to influence exchange rates. It controls the country's monetary policy.
The MNB maintains a medium-term inflation target of around 3%. This is somewhat higher than the generally accepted level of inflation for price stability in Europe, and it is used in order to allow for Hungary's "price catch-up" to the rest of Europe.[1]
The Governor of the Hungarian National Bank is appointed by the President of Hungary at the proposal of the Prime Minister for a term of 6 years. The most important decision-making body of the Hungarian National Bank is the Monetary Council. The building of the Hungarian National Bank is located in Liberty Square, in the Inner City of Budapest. It can be found next to the building of the US Embassy.
According to Hungary's Central Bank Act, which founded the Hungarian National Bank, "The primary objective of the MNB shall be to achieve and maintain price stability. Without prejudice to its primary objective, the MNB shall support the economic policy of the Government using the monetary policy instruments at its disposal."
Hungary formerly was to join the Euro in 2010, thus divesting the MNB of most of its powers. However, central bank leaders have criticized this plan, saying that the fiscal austerity requirements would slow Hungary's growth.[2]
In December 2011 two of the three major credit rating agencies downgraded Hungarian debt to a non-investment speculative grade, commonly called "junk status". In part this is because of changes to the national constitution creating doubts about the independence of the central bank.[3][4]
In the Austira-Hungary era the Austro-Hungarian Bank acted as the central bank of the Monarchy. After World War 1 the Austro-Hungarian Bank has been dissolved and a new bank, the Royal Hungarian State Bank was established.
The first independent Hungarian central bank, the National Bank of Hungary, commenced operations on 24 June 1924, in the form of a company limited by shares.[5]
Demonetised and damaged currency[edit]
Demonetised or damaged currency issued by the Hungarian National Bank can be exchanged in their head office and two regional offices.

GuidelinesAll forms of the master's thesis at St Vladimir's Seminary are intended to lead students into the deep exploration of some new areas of learning not covered in the core curriculum. Thesis Proposal. To register for thesis, students must successfully complete the research-writing seminar (TW 205) and submit—at the time of registration—an approved thesis proposal of 4–5 pages, written in accordance with the research standards learned in the seminar; the proposal must justify its topic and identify the problem or issue under investigation.
In both cases, the proposal must also include a working title and bibliography, which is not intended to be exhaustive but must show that the student is familiar with the main works in the field, in particular those that will be of value to the project. Correct bibliographical style and good English stylistics are essential for acceptance of the proposal. Finally, the proposal must be approved by a member of the faculty, who will normally serve as the thesis advisor, and be submitted to the Office of Academic Affairs for final approval. The Associate Dean for Academic Affairs will make the final decision in assigning thesis advisors. Registration Deadline. Students who are unable to submit a thesis proposal at the time of registration may not register for thesis until a proposal has been approved. The final deadline for thesis registration is the second Friday of the semester. The following thesis registrations are possible: 1. M.A. Thesis (TS 305 [3 credits]). M.A. students who do not write an honors thesis (see TS 310 below) are required to write a thesis of 25–35 pages in length, normally in their final semester. Prerequisites for writing an M.A. thesis are:
2. M.Div. Thesis Option (TS 305 [3 credits]). M.Div. students who do not write an honors thesis (see TS 310 below) are permitted to write a thesis of 25–35 pages in lieu of three elective credits in their senior year, normally in the fall semester. (Note: The thesis option does not replace the M.Div. Senior Oral Examination.) Prerequisites for writing an M.Div. thesis are:
3. Honors Thesis (TS 310 [4 credits]). Invited M.A. and M.Div. students may fulfill the thesis requirement (elective in the case of M.Div. students) by writing an honors thesis of 40–50 pages. Prerequisites for writing an honors thesis are:
Note: Although honors thesis is not required to fulfill program requirements, it is required for graduation honors. 4. Th.M. Thesis (TS 401–402 [3 credits each]). Th.M. students are required to write a thesis of 60–100 pages. The thesis, written under the supervision of the student's thesis advisor over two semesters, must be based upon personal research and constitute an original scholarly contribution. Once the thesis is accepted, it is discussed and defended at a special meeting of the faculty, to which competent scholars from other institutions may be invited. These scholars take part in the final faculty vote to recommend the candidate for the degree. 5. Continuation Registration (CTN). Students who do not complete their thesis by the thesis submission deadline, which is posted on the academic calendar, must register for continuation (and pay the continuation fee) in the following semester(s) in order to remain degree candidates. Failure to register for continuation and pay the fee will cause the student to be dropped from the degree program. In the event that the student is unable to complete the thesis even with continuation registration(s), the permanent grade W (Withdrawal) will be entered on the student's transcript. |
Order of Pages1. Title page. This page contains the full title of the thesis (all capitals), the full name of its author, signature fields for advisor (named) and second reader (named), the partial fulfillment statement, and the date, as in the example under "Style Sheet." |
Style SheetThe final copy of the thesis should be read with utmost care, especially for typographical errors. Th.M. and honors theses are bound by and deposited in the Library, to become a permanent—and public—monument to your years here. Title PageSt. Vladimir's Seminary Press House StyleStudent Supplement for The SBL Handbook of Style |
Submission InstructionsFALL 2014 DEADLINE: 5 pm Tuesday, December 2 Theses submitted after the deadline will be considered by the faculty council at its next meeting after the final submission and, if accepted, will be subject to a full grade penalty (e.g., A becomes B). Students whose theses are not submitted on time will normally register, without grade penalty, for a semester of continuation. 1. M.A. Thesis (TS 305) and M.Div. Thesis Option (TS 305):Electronic Copy to Office of Academic Affairs. After the advisor has accepted the final version of the thesis, an electronic copy of the thesis (as PDF file) must be emailed to Office of Academic Affairs by the deadline indicated in the Academic Calendar. The thesis is then evaluated by the advisor. 2. Honors Thesis (TS 310) and Th.M. Thesis (TS 401–402):a. Electronic Copy to Office of Academic Affairs. After the advisor has accepted the final version of the thesis, an electronic copy of the thesis (as PDF file) must be emailed to Office of Academic Affairs by the deadline indicated in the Academic Calendar. The thesis is then evaluated by two readers: the first reader is the student's thesis advisor and the second is appointed by the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs from among the other faculty of the seminary. |

The discussion topics, questions, and suggestions for further reading that follow are designed to enhance your group's reading of Myla Goldberg's Bee Season, a beautifully crafted portrait of an American family torn asunder when eleven-year-old Eliza defies everyone's expectations by blossoming into a championship speller.
Like most families, the Naumanns have settled comfortably into a routine, each member playing an accepted role in the day-to-day family drama. Saul, a cantor who devotes himself to the study of Jewish mysticism, is the family anchor, preparing the meals, running the household, and nurturing his son Aaron's interest in Judaism. Miriam, a brilliant and compulsive high-powered lawyer, slips easily into the role of wage-earner, happy to leave the emotional demands of family life and parenting to her husband. Smart, socially isolated, and physically awkward, teenager Aaron thrives under his father's attention, relishing their shared scholarly pursuits and secure in the knowledge that he will become an eminent rabbi. Amid this dazzling display of intellectual power and intensity, Eliza, an unremarkable fourth-grade student, is resigned to remaining in the shadows. But her surprising triumph in a classroom spelling bee and her ascent to the national championships launch Eliza into the spotlight, radically altering the family dynamics.
Saul is soon lavishing time and affection on Eliza, leaving Aaron desperate to find something to replace the connections--to his father and his faith--that have sustained him. For Miriam, the sudden emergence of her daughter's ability to apply the concentration and the desire for perfection that define her own self-image triggers a flood of contradictory emotions and sends her life spiraling out of control. And, as her studies with her father escalate beyond simple word drills to explorations of the writings of one of history's greatest kabbalists, Eliza discovers that her talent for spelling opens the door to far more mysterious gifts.
Myla Goldberg chronicles the details of the Naumanns' suddenly unsettled world--the subtle interplay between an estranged husband and wife, the love-hate relationship of two siblings, the shifting loyalties of parent and child--with a wonderful mixture of humor and compassion. In disclosing the joys, confusions, and pain of a young girl's coming-of-age, she uncovers the hidden longings that shape--and sometimes destroy--the delicate fabric of family life.
1. Eliza Naumann has "been designated . . . as a student from whom great things should not be expected" [p. 1]. How does Myla Goldberg use both humor and poignancy to bring home the impact of this judgment on a child? Does Eliza accept her "mediocrity" without question? What evidence is there that she resents (or is frustrated by) the way the teachers and other students, as well as her own family, perceive her?
2. Why does Eliza slip the information about the district spelling bee under Saul's door, rather than telling him about it in person? Is her behavior unusual for an eleven-year-old? How do Aaron's and Saul's reactions to Eliza's winning the district bee and moving on to the regional finals [p. 43] shed light on Eliza's own feelings about the significance of her newly discovered talent?
3. Initially, Saul is portrayed as an involved and caring father. What hints are there that his interest in his children's lives masks a need to satisfy his own ego? How does his relationship with Miriam enhance the image he has created for himself? Is Miriam in some ways a victim of Saul's determination to take the primary role in the family or is she equally responsible for the pattern they have established? In what ways do the dynamics of the Naumanns' marriage reflect the times in which they live?
4. Before the depth of Miriam's problem is revealed, how do you respond to her as a character? Do her ostensible involvement with work and her treatment of her children make her a "bad" mother? What incidents, if any, demonstrate that at some level she wants to express her love for Eliza and Aaron?
5. Are the interactions between Aaron and Eliza typical of sibling relationships, or are they closer than most brothers and sisters? If so, what contributes to their closeness? At what point does the pattern they have established begin to change?
6. "Saul Naumann spends the first portion of his life as Sal Newman, son of Henry and Lisa Newman, decorator of Christmas trees and Easter eggs" [p. 10]. When he embraces Judaism as a teenager under his mother's guidance, Saul becomes estranged from his father. What effect does Saul's childhood have on how he approaches parenting and the goals he sets for Aaron? As the only child of a wealthy couple who wanted a large family, Miriam is raised to fulfill all her parents' expectations. What does Saul offer her that her own parents were unable to provide? Goldberg writes, "The two bond over their mutual lack of family ties" [p. 22]. How do their assumptions about marriage and, later, their behavior with Eliza and Aaron belie the notion that they are free of the legacies of their own parents?
7. In addition to his desire to achieve a higher level of spirituality, why does Saul devote so much time to his studies of Jewish mysticism? Do his retreats into his study serve another purpose, either conscious or subconscious, in his life? Is the time he spends with Aaron early in the book and later with Eliza compensation for--or relief from--his self-imposed isolation?
8. Discuss the development of Eliza's enchantment with spelling. Is she driven by more than just the desire to please her father? How does the author use metaphors and other literary devices to extend the meaning of what is happening to Eliza at each stage? For example, what does Goldberg mean by the sentence, "When Eliza studies, it is like discovering her own anatomy" [p. 44] and her descriptions of Eliza's delightful characterizations of each letter [p. 49]?
9. When Eliza triumphs at the Greater Philadelphia Metro Area Spelling Bee, Miriam is struck with a sense of pain as she "realizes too late that she has made her daughter more like her than she ever intended" [p. 59]. Saul, in contrast, feels gratitude and humility; he "would like to think he has kept his distance in order to protect his daughter from his unfulfilled hopes" [p. 61]. Is this self-deception on Saul's part? How do you think Eliza would respond to her parents' feelings?
10. Why is Eliza's failure to appreciate Miriam's gift of the kaleidoscope so devastating to Miriam [p. 67]? Would the situation have been different if Miriam had explained its importance to her? Why doesn't she?
11. Eliza's transformation from ordinary student into nationally recognized spelling prodigy undermines the roles Aaron and Miriam have always assumed in the family and sets in motion events that destroy the Naumanns' fa?ade of contentment and normalcy. Is there a common thread that links Aaron's experiments with different religions, Miriam's secret excursions, and Eliza's plunge into Jewish mysticism? In what ways do each of their quests embody the Jewish principle of Tikkun Olam, "the fixing of the world" [p. 87]? What parallels are there between the rituals they perform, the risks they take--and the revelations they receive?
12. What does Miriam's sudden sexual aggressiveness symbolize? What does it represent in terms of her feelings about Saul and their marriage? How is it related to the other signs of her increasing recklessness? Despite his discomfort and shock, why is Saul reluctant to discuss it, choosing instead to sleep in his study? Why does he convince himself "that he is there for Eliza's sake" [p. 186]? What are other examples of his unwillingness to face the profound changes occurring in the family?
13. Eliza masters arcane skills and grasps mysteries that few people in history have even dared to examine, yet she remains a typical little girl in many ways. How does Goldberg bring this to life in her descriptions of Eliza's thoughts and actions? She writes, "Abulafia's words speak to Eliza like a promise" [p. 195]. How do Eliza's studies, of both spelling and mysticism, relate to the concrete facts of her life and the promises she hopes will be fulfilled?
14. Describing Saul's reaction to the room Miriam has constructed, Goldberg writes, "Saul starts finding it difficult to breathe. . . . When Saul starts to cry, it is out of this sense of supersaturation as well as having arrived at a new level of understanding" [p. 225]. Does Saul live up to this "new level of understanding" when he sees Miriam at the hospital [pp. 235- 236]? When he discusses the situation with Eliza and Aaron?
15. How does Eliza's final act shed light on her character and the changes she has undergone in the course of the novel? Is it an act of defiance or of resolution?
16. Bee Season presents the narrative viewpoints of all the family members. How does this technique add depth and nuance to our understanding of each character? How do the self-portraits differ from the portraits, implicit or explicit, sketched by the other members of the family? Which characters become more sympathetic or appealing through this juxtaposition of perspectives and which ones become less so?
17. The book opens with quotations from the mystic Abulafia and spelling champion Rebecca Sealfon. It is clear how they relate to Eliza's life; in what ways are they relevant to the other characters in the novel and the themes Goldberg explores?
Shortly after reading about spelling bees in an essay in Granta, a friend of mine told me of a fairly traumatic spelling bee experience. I became obsessed with spelling bees and how they can take on such great significance to the children and the parents involved in them. My feelings were confirmed when I traveled to Washington, D.C., for the 1997 National Spelling Bee. In the two days I spent there watching the bee, interviewing some of the contestants and eavesdropping, I felt I had entered an alternate universe of anxiety and expectation ruled by one of the most arbitrary of systems: the English language. While some of the kids were actually having fun, it became quickly apparent that the spelling bee was pathologically important to a tangible percentage of contestants and parents. Though I was never an active spelling bee participant myself, I recognized in these kids my own childhood imperative to fulfill expectations and live up to my potential. I realized that part of my own fascination with the spelling bee--and part of the reason I think it makes the national news and is televised on ESPN every year--lies in the fact that it is so easy to recognize ourselves in these kids and in this ridiculous contest. We have all felt the desire to please or to succeed against irrational odds. We have all felt what it is like to fail. The universals, underlying what at first sight seemed like such an odd niche of humanity, were a large part of what powered the 18 months it took to write Bee Season.
Myla Goldberg on Myla Goldberg
I grew up in Laurel, Maryland, where, in fifth grade, I lost my first and only spelling bee with the word "tomorrow." After graduating from Oberlin College, I spent a year living and writing in Prague, where I taught English to psychotherapists, insurance salesmen, and former Communist officials. Upon returning to the U.S., I moved to New York City. My complete inability to hold down a regular job led me to a freelance career as a reader for television movies. I now write full-time in Brooklyn, where I live with my husband.

I want to add some news headlines to some of my sites, I did a search on Yahoo and got tons of a results, but all of these services look mediocore. I don't want to pay for the headlines either, I want something decent, up to date, but it should be free.
If anyone has any experience and/or web links with this please let me know.
I have looked, but can you be a little more specific on where the adding headling stuff is? I can't find it. Can you give me the exact website?
Google may eventually get into it, you're probably right, I was just looking for a simple solution now. The ones I've found I really don't like as the news is not really that interesting.
Thanks again.
Anyone else have any good headline news services they use?
Unfortunately news content is expensive to provide so your free options are extremely limited especially if your site is commercial in nature. This is a big reason why I developed All Headline News. Consider taking advantage of the free trial. Although not a free service, it's expensive to provide the content, bandwidth and servers and staff, it is very low cost and has a very nice feature set.
Moreover isn't free anymore and definetly not inexpensive but they do have a well developed product.
NewsKnowledge also offers headline content but it's not free. Also well developed and competent
Individual sources sometimes offer headline content but beware and carefully read the TOS almost all of them do not allow commercial use or placement of their content.
Here are some links for you

What fertilizer and how often do you fertilize? Usually if a plant puts out lots of leaves and no flowers it is because it has been fed too much nitrogen. Nitrogen is the first number on the fertilizer box. Stop fertilizing and they will probably flower. |

Morgan Freeman on Helium: Watch the Video

We arrived In London mid-afternoon and got the tube from Heathrow. We purchased Oyster cards at the airport and used them for the rest of our trip which was definitely worth it.

I never had a keyboard supporting "poly pressure" ($An), they only
supported "channel pressure" ($Dn), n is for the channel.
Even the common "channel pressure" for some keyboards can cause a lot of
unneeded data, while played by keyboarders with shaky fingers ;).
Let's say you want to reach an aftertouch level of 120 ($78), this can
result in a huge amount of $Dn $78, $Dn $77, $Dn $79 etc., running
status won't reduce a lot of bytes, while there will be data for other
channels on the same MIDI port.
Another point is, at what value aftertouch should start with level 1.
Internal a keyboard there should be a resolution of more than 127 steps.
There should be settings that start aftertouch at soft pressure and
other settings to start aftertouch at hard pressure.
When using several MIDI ports even a lot of SysEx can be sent real-time,
but using only one MIDI port even aftertouch can cause timing problems.
It would be good if there would be some features for the master
keyboard, instead of using filters or editing functions by a sequencer.

With hedychiums even though you can have a variance in height I'd say for a temporary home 3 gallon but, if it's a quick clumper maybe a 7 or 10 gallon.

Buying windows from Marks Plastics is gonna run you about a 1000.00 bucks for your Islander. I have a great plastics guy here and am going to have him cut new windows for me out of some 1/4 plexiglass. he reccomended that I use Plexi instead of Lexan as it will not scratch as bad. If I remember right you just bought this boat correct? Does it have the vinyl headliner around the windows? If it does while the windows are out look at the plywood behind the headliner and make sure it isnt dry rotted. In my bahama 30 I have taken out the entire headliner and going to put up some teak plywoodalong the main cabin where the windows are and an easily removable headliner to be able to access deck hardware. If you want any pictures of what stuff in your bahama looks like while it is taken apart let me know.

Devon Waste Management up for sale
Devon County Council is to conduct a trade sale of its wholly owned subsidiary waste firm Devon Waste Management.
Formed as a Local Authority Waste Disposal Company in response to the Environmental Protection Act 1990, Devon Waste Management has operated along commercial lines and at "arm's length" from the County Council.
According to a notice submitted to the Official Journal of the European Communities Public Procurement, DWM has a "successful track record and excellent prospects". The county council is looking for a company to explore "alternative means of waste disposal for the longer term".
Although the Council were unavailable for comment, it is thought that waste management Viridor are possible buyers because of their strong links with the South-West of England and previous contracts working alongside Devon Waste Management.
Owned by the Pennon Group, which also owns South West Water, Viridor has looked to expand its operations as recently as July, when it bought the Roseland Plant in Cornwall for around 9.5 million (see letsrecycle.com story).
Speaking last year after 12m worth of acquisitions in the South of England, Viridor's chief executive Colin Drummond said that they were looking to make waste management the core business of their parent company. Mr Drummon said that the firm would continue "to make acquisitions as long as they make strategic sense and the price is right." (see letsrecycle.com story)
Devon Waste Management is one of a dying breed of Local Authority Waste Disposal Companies, with few remaining that have not so far been sold. LAWDCs were formed by councils because the Environmental Protection Act 1990 required local authorities to divest themselves of their waste disposal operations.
Councils either had to create wholly or party-owned "arms-length" companies – LAWDCs – or turn their waste operations over to the private sector. The aim of the legislation was to introduce competition for waste disposal into the system, to encourage a more efficient service and identify the full costs of waste disposal.
Devon Waste Management provide waste transfer and disposal services under contracts with eight district councils in the county. Its core business with 60% of DWM's turnover, waste disposal is primarily by landfill. The company operates two landfill sites – one of which it owns absolutely – and three transfer stations.
As well as this, DWM has a contract with the county council for the transporting and composting of garden and green waste. Following the sale of the company, the county council has said that its nine contracts with DWM will not be terminated before 31st March 2010.
The contract to run 15 civic amenity sites and eight rural facilities will expire on 31 March 2003, as will the county council's contract to store redundant fridges and manage the recycling of the CFC gases, provisions for which are being reviewed in the light of the latest legislation.
DWM also has a separate trading division, Coastal Waste, which provides services to the private sector, with contracts for the collection and disposal of commercial waste from a number of local firms.
