I'm building a Bronco 1/350th H.M.S. Vanguard kit more or less out of the box. I'm confused about the colors to paint it. Current photos show a very dark black on the upper hull. I assume this is some sort of non-skid walking surface. The rest of boat from the waterline up and the sail is a dark grey color. I assume this is the color of weathered tiles.
Is the hull below the waterline that same tile color or is it something else? Also what color is the bow sonar dome?

Dog & Scissors show is just too jumpy and dumb. |
MYTH: the universal language. Always question AUTHORITY.
Hmm I should find a list of all the current simulcasts... because the only ones I can think of off the top of my head without digging through my queue, writing that all down, etc etc, is:
WATAMOTE Free! Dog & Scissors I know there is more, but I just can't think of them off the top of my head, nor have I thought about ranking them. Maybe after I get some actual sleep I will go digging around for a list to use (unless someone happens to have one they can message me or reply to me here that I can use... XD) Of course one problem is I only use Crunchyroll, so if there is anything on other sites, I don't know about them at all. Which I know sometimes makes me miss great shows, but I hate using other sites personally. |

I knew there was something I liked about the BlackBerry Bold Touch...
Summer 2011 BlackBerry Bold 9900/9970 pictured on top of the summer 2010 iPhone 4.
Fitting, given that when the original BlackBerry Bold 9000 launched, the design was widely seen as having been inspired by the original 2007 iPhone.
Have something to say about this story? Leave a comment! Need help with something else? Ask in our forums!

I knew there was something I liked about the BlackBerry Bold Touch...
here is the first bold it was released in 2008. how could it have copied the iphone 4 you guys are reaching now. www.infosyncworld.com/reviews/cell-phones/rim-blackberry-bold-9000-(at&t)/
best bold made to date keyboard size etc the bold touch is a copy of the original bold 9000 not the newer ones. before i get flack i have an iphone not a berry but come on already
sorry messed the link up but there is a perfect side shot in 2008 which had the metal band before the iphone 4 ever got close to coming outhttp://www.infosyncworld.com/reviews/cell-phones/rim-blackberry-bold-9000-(at&t)/
so just because something has brushed stainless steel on the side, it's an iphone4 copy? I think not.
Right. I mean BB has been making phone much longer than Apple, and no one accused Apple of coping BB because their phone has a screen AND a keypad. I think the BB Bold had video and a flash long before the iPhone did. And could copy / paste. And had folders on the phone. So, I guess Apple copied all that too. If you listen to the fanboys, Apple INVENTED the mobile phone.
C'mon people! Where in the post does it say that the bold is a copy of iPhone 4?? Only the commentary is blowing this out of proportion. Do you guys have something on your chest or is this just the people of NoHumourVille laying their turds all over decent internet? I bet it's both. :D
I don't think that people who buy Blackberries want their phones to have touch screens I know it's stereotypical to say that Blackberries are for business users and enterprise but that's the target audience and usually those people have a Blackberry for business and another for personal use.
If the everyday person wanted a touch screen smartphone wouldn't they go with iOS or Android? Blackberry's touch screen smartphones haven't been all that well received and they're already saying that the screen on the Bold Touch is too small to be really effective. And Blackberry's attempt to grab the everyday person has been a rather futile effort.
Not saying that Blackberry is bad, but they need to rethink their strategy before pouring money into things that aren't going to be bought.
Wow there's a lot anger issues here. It seems a little odd how many Apple haters there are on an Apple product webpage. Haters, seek therapy. Let folks interested in thier product have a discussion in peace. I don't go to Crackberry to insult you or your product of interest. The BB Bold 9900 looks like a decent phone. The iPhone has it's strengths. Why the hate?

Harvey aims to shake off rust facing White Sox
Chicago counters with Santiago in opener of two-game set in New York
Matt Harvey may have had some extra rest heading into Tuesday's game against the White Sox, but he doesn't think it will be much of an issue. New York's prized right-hander threw 121 pitches last Monday in a game that went 15 innings, and the Mets will bring him back a week later against Chicago.
"I don't get sore at all," Harvey said on Sunday. "I know if I worked too hard, the next day might be different. But I was fine all week. My bullpen was great. I'm looking forward to Tuesday."
Harvey has been impeccable for the Mets this season, winning his first four starts and never letting his ERA rise above 1.60. The right-hander has recorded two straight no-decisions, but he's allowed two earned runs or fewer in five of his first six outings and has given up just two home runs this season.
The White Sox will counter with Hector Santiago, which makes Tuesday's opener all the more interesting. Santiago, a 25-year-old southpaw, moved into the rotation and allowed just one run in his last outing, and he's held opposing hitters to a .214 average in his first eight appearances.
Santiago held batters to a similar average -- .211 -- last year as a swing man, and he made four starts over the course of the season. The left-hander allowed 10 home runs in 70 1/3 innings and walked (40) half as many batters as he struck out (79) as a rookie. This year, he has 17 strikeouts and five walks.
The Mets lost their finale in Atlanta but took a series split against the top team in the National League East, and New York is now 7-10 against its division rivals. Harvey used those 121 pitches effectively, but he couldn't get out of the sixth inning in his last start. The Mets will need him to set the tone against Chicago.
"Every time I go out there, I'm trying to go seven, eight [or] nine innings," said Harvey, who has completed seven innings in four of his first six starts. "Obviously, I wasn't happy with the pitches per inning, but I feel like I can go out there 120-130 pitches each time. My body can handle it."
This two-game series will also be a homecoming of sorts for White Sox manager Robin Ventura, who played for the Mets from 1999-2001. His tenure in New York included two postseason appearances in '99 and 2000.
"For me, it was a great time," Ventura said. "My family enjoyed being there. The Mets were very good to me. Going back, you see a lot of people that you are friends with and happy to see."
White Sox: Floyd to undergo season-ending surgery
Right-hander Gavin Floyd will have season-ending surgery Tuesday to repair the ulnar collateral ligament and a torn flexor muscle in his pitching elbow. His expected recovery time is 14-19 months.
Floyd went 0-4 with a 5.18 ERA in five starts this season, the final year of his contract with the White Sox. He left his last outing on April 27 after 2 2/3 innings.
• Right-hander Jake Peavy threw off the mound Monday and said he'll be good to go Wednesday against the Mets. Peavy, who had back spasms Thursday in Texas, will continue to receive treatment until Wednesday. He threw without pain Sunday before stepping on the mound Monday.
"We're all on point to go Wednesday night," Peavy said. "I'm super excited about that, and can't thank our training staff enough. A few days ago, I didn't feel good at all."
Mets: Tejada struggling against righties
Shortstop Ruben Tejada went 0-for-5 Sunday as the leadoff hitter, and he's batting just .224 (15-for-67) against right-handed pitchers this season. Tejada went into Sunday's game batting .318 in the leadoff spot, but he's now at .259 (7-for-27) with three extra-base hits and four runs scored.
Tejada was one of the Mets' hottest hitters in the first half last season, as he batted .299 in April and over .300 in each of the season's next three months. The right-handed hitter batted .325 in the first half last year before slumping to .269 in the second half. Now the Mets are waiting for him to ignite.
Worth noting
• The Mets already have three victories when trailing after eight innings, matching the team's total from last season.
• This is Chicago's second meeting with the Mets. The White Sox took two of three from the Mets from June 10-12, 2002. The Mets are the only National League team the Sox haven't played on the road.

Turn your speakers up! Ginger Lea starts off this scene already down on her knees crawling between your legs and talking to the camera in the sexiest fucking raspy voice your dick has ever heard. Just listening to her breathing deeply is enough to get most guys off. When she lets out a moan as she pushes her face into your lap you\'ll be reaching for the back of her head as a matter of reflex! After plenty of jaw-popping blowjob games, she jams her own twat with a vibrator while squatting beneath your balls and you get to stare right into her eyes as she sucks your dick while working her pussy for you at the same time. We take away her vibrator for a moment so we can turn it up higher and then we hand it back so she can rattle her cunt at full speed. Watch the lighting and you\'ll see this blowjob went on for over an hour. We didn\'t let Ginger off easy, we made her work for her facial and she didn\'t get a single drop of sperm in her hair until she had earned it! Keep watching at the end as she rubs out an orgasm of her own and admits it\'s the first time she ever made herself cum on camera. This scene is fucking hot!
Ginger cums at the same time she gets facialed and it\'s for real!

About Corydoras
These fish are members of a South American catfish genus known as Corydoras.
Corydora are freshwater temperate and tropical catfish in the armoured catfish
family, and are commonly referred to as Corys. The type species for this genus is
Corydoras Geoffrey. The name Corydoras is derived from the Greek kory
(helmet) and doras (skin).
Corydoras is has over 180 described species, many variants exist as well,
including colour morphs and long fins varieties, plus several hundred Corydoras
species are not yet classified, but kept by aquarists. These species are given C-
Numbers, similar to the L numbers given the Plecs. The C-Number
categorisation was originally devised by Hans-Georg Evers for the German fish
keeping magazine DATZ in 1993. As of 2006, there are 153 C-numbers
assigned, of which 32 have subsequently been assigned appropriate scientific
Corydoras are native to slow-moving and almost still streams and small rivers of
South America where the water is shallow and very clear. The preferred bottom
seems to be sand or sand mixed with mud, sometimes covered with detritus or
dead leaves. The banks and sides of the streams are covered with a dense
growth of plants, and this is where the Corys are found. They inhabit a wide
variety of water types but tend they are documented to prefer soft, neutral to
slightly acidic water.
They can tolerate only a small amount of salt (some species tolerate none at all),
although it is not recommended to add salt to their water. Many species are
found in schools or aggregations of hundreds or even thousands of individuals,
usually of a single species, but occasionally with other species mixed in.
Their main food sources are normally, bottom-dwelling insects and insect larvae
and various worms, they also consume some vegetable matter. Corydora were
once thought to kill other tank mates and then feed upon them, although this is
now known to be a false view. Corydora are not piscivoures, although they will
eat dead fish, that the find.
They feed buy sifting through the substrate, using their barbels to taste, with their
snouts fully submerged in the substrate. This is why you should not use gravel as
substrate for a tank with Corys, as they will wear down their barbels, which
causes problems for the fish, and leaves it open to infection.
Scientific classification
Class: Actinopterygii
Order: Siluriformes
Family: Callichthyidae
Genus: Corydoras
Corys At home
Corys are popular aquarium fish and typically measure around four to seven
centimetres in length. They are well suited to tropical freshwater community
aquariums, as they get along well with other species and are not at all
aggressive. Corys are shy fish and it is recommended to keep them in groups of
at least six as most species seem to form shoals in the aquaria.
These are easy fish to keep, being peaceful, small, hardy, active, and
entertaining. Occasionally they will swim to the surface of the tank, to gulp air,
they are not breathing the atmospheric air, like beta's and gourami, but they use
the air to help their digestion.
Corydoras are very good choices for a community aquarium, and are widely kept
throughout the world. These fish have a long lifespan; A C. Aeneus is said to
have for lived 27 years in captivity, although 20 years is not too uncommon.
There are four species commonly found in aquarium retailers, which we will
discuss in this article, these are:
- C. Aeneus (Bronze Cory)
- C. Sterbai (Sterbai's Cory)
- C. Paleatus (Peppered Cory)
- C. Trilineatus (Three Line Cory)
Some of these species are also available in albino form (See The Albino Cory:
Not a single species, Pg. X) and Long fin varieties.
Unfortunately these fish are just one of thousands of species to be involved in the
act of dying, this is a process with fish are artificially coloured. the latest trend is
known as "Tattooing" where fish are available with comments such as "I LOVE
YOU!" and such on their flanks. This is painful for the fish and can also harm the
fish physically as well as mentally.
Many retailers have signed up to Practical Fish Keeping's movement to stop this
act, and there have been laws passed to stop this in the UK and many other
countries, although the import of dyed fish is still not outlawed, and in the eyes of
many fish keepers, professional, amateur and beginner should be stopped with
immediate effect, so please if you see a dyed fish (See Figure 1.0), not just corys
do not buy them, if their is no demand for them the companies doing this wont
produce them any more.
Figure 1.0 - Artificially Dyed Corydora Aeneus
There are a number of species of other South American Catfish that is commonly
mistaken for Corydoras, there are:
- Aspidoras
- Brochis
- Scleromystax
They are very similar to Corydora, although these tend to grow a lot larger than
Corydoras, there are other distinguishing features with the other species that
defines them as such, but this document will concentrate on only Corydoras.
The Tank Setup
Company of their own
As said earlier Corydoras do best in groups, they can be kept in groups of mixed
species, but they prefer the company of their own.
I shoal of 6 or more is usually suggested by many aquarists, although some have
managed to keep and spawn them in groups of as small as two.
Corydoras are peaceful fish, as well as very shy, keeping them in a group will
help their confidence as well.
Tank mates
When considering tank mates for your Corydoras you will not want any
boisterous fish, such as sharks or Cichlids, nor should they be kept with too
many other bottom-dwelling fish, as this could cause too much competition for
food, and being a shy fish, the Corys would probably retreat when challenged by
another fish, and therefore starve.
Suitable tank mates include small loaches, such as the Chain Loach
(Yasuhikotakia Sidthimunki, formerly Botia Sidthimunki), Tetras, such as neons
(Paracheirodon innesi), Xray (Pristella maxillaris), black phantom
(Megalamphodus megalopterus) or caridnal (Paracheirodon axelrodi). You will
find other species such as small plec species will also fair well with Corydoras.
Basically any small, non-aggressive or boisterous fish would suit a Corydora
If you are looking at breeding your Corydoras I personally would suggest a
species tank, although some species will readily spawn in a community tank. In
the community the eggs are hard to find, and will also be eaten by other fish.
The Tank
With all bottom-dwelling fish it is the foot print of the tank not the height tank that
is important, so the large the foot print the move fish. Corydoras do not create
vast amounts of waste, like that seen from bristlenose plecs for instance, so light
filtration will be fine.
Substrate should be sand, to enable the Corydoras to forage without damaging
their barbels.
You can safely keep a shoal of eight, fully grown, Corydora in a 15 gallon (17 US
gallon) tank, with the dimensions of 24" x 12" x 14" (See below for the tank
As for decorations, bog wood, monapi wood or large rounded river stones would
suit best giving the aesthetic look of a natural environment. Ensure you have
soaked you wood, both bog and monapi leech tannin into the water, this
discolours the water as well as effects the PH, as the tannin is acidic. Also make
sure the stones you use do not contain any minerals such as lime, to test this you
can place a few drops of malt vinegar on the stones, if they fizz they are
unsuitable, but if you purchased them from a aquatics shop they should be ok to
As for lighting, standard tank lighting will be fine, unless you are considering
plants, then you will need brighter and more efficient lighting.

Planted Cory Tanks
If you want to try a planted Cory tank, you will be better advised to you large
leaves plants such as the Amazon Swords (Echinodorus amazonicus) and other
such plants. You do not want to use a plant that will cover the floor of the tank, as
this is irritate your Corys, and they will not be able forage efficiently causing
unrequited stress. Large leaved plants also give the Corys some place to stick
their eggs to when spawning, although most of the eggs will be probably placed
in the glass.
Keep in mind NOT ALL Corys spawn in this way.
If you do decide to breed you Corys in a planted tank, you will find it hard to find
the eggs, and removal is even harder.
Corydora are omnivores, which means they feed on both plant and animal
matter, they do require protein, which is more often than not over looked by the
aquarist, who on some occasions treat them as 'Cleaning' fish. It is true these
fish are scavengers, but they have more nutritional needs than just scraps that
are not eaten by the other fish.
Corys will take any foods, from dried flake food and catfish pellets to bloodworm
and other insects, frozen or other wise. You can buy freeze dried bloodworm and
tubiflex worms, but I would advise against using these, mainly because they have
lost most of their nutritional values, and float, so the Corys wont eat them. They
then break down and ad to the waste in the tank, thus increase the nitrate, nitrite
and ammonia levels in the water.
Although feeding living and frozen bloodworm and such like insects is great for
the fish, you should only feed these to them every other day, and supplement
their diets with vegetable matter. On alternative days feed them dried pellets or
tablets, such asTetra: Tabimin, or King British: Cat Fish pellets. A well balanced
and varied diet is key to the health and longevity of any fish.
Figure 3.0 - Suggest Food for Corydoras
You can buy live foods from aquatic shops, but it is cheaper to grow your own
cultures of live foods. Either that or buy frozen foods, which now come in handy
blister packs, with a single serving providing enough food for at least 3- 4 tanks
of Corys.
Live cultures for bloodworm are hard to maintain, as bloodworm is the larval
stage of midges, a small flying insect. You have to maintain a population of
adults to lay their eggs and hatch them into the worms. In my opinion it is a lot
cheaper and easier to buy frozen bloodworms.
Common Species Identification
The following Section will help to identify your Corydora, as many of the species
get confused with each other. Some other following have different colour morphs,
and fin shapes, the normal strain are shown here, for the albino strains please
see The Albino Cory: Not a single species.
Corydoras Aeneus
Common names: Bronze Cory
Distribution: Trinidad, Venezuela, La Plata
Length: 2.8
Water Temperature: 19-26oC
Description: This is amongst the most frequently, and there is the most common
of the Corydoras found in aquatic stores. The body shape is arched, with the
forehead rising quite steeply from a down-turned mouth, around which are three
pairs of barbels. The flanks are bronze coloured with a darker area immediately
behind the gill cover which tapers to a point level with the rear end of the dorsal
fin. These fish are actually sub-tropical fish; unlike many of the other members of
its family it prefers lower temperatures.

· Albino
· Long Fin
Corydoras Sterbai
Common names: Sterbais Cory
Distribution: Brazil
Length: 2.6
Water Temperature: 24.0-28.0oC
Description: It is hard to misidentify this species but it can be confused with
Corydoras Haraldschultzi, although the latter is a long nosed species where C.
Sterbai is the dome headed form - the easiest way to tell them apart is that the
Sterbais Cory has white spots on its head from eyes down to snout. C.
Haraldschultzi does not. Corydoras Sterbai has recently become available in
albino form.
Figure 4.2 C. Sterbai
· Albino
Corydoras Paleatus
Common names: Peppered Cory
Distribution: Guyana
Length: 2.4
Water Temperature: 19-26oC
Description: Adults are easily identified but young can be confused with some
other Corydoras (such as C. Barbatus and the like) or even young Aspidoras.
Wild caught individuals look quite different from farm raised fish commonly
encountered for sale. Wild fish have a higher contrast pattern, the pigmentation
shimmers like foil in natural sunlight.
Females grow considerably larger and possess a heavier girth when sexually
mature (See Figure 4.4). Egg-ripe females can get so robust that the fish cannot
lie flat against the substrate! The size difference in sexes is illustrated clearly in
the images below. These fish are actually sub-tropical fish; unlike many of the
other members of its family it prefers lower temperatures.

Corydoras Trilineatus
Common names: Three Line Cory
Distribution: Peruvian Amazon: Rio Ampiyacu, Rio Ucayali and the Yarina
Cocha. Ecuador: Rio Pastaza.
Length: 2.8
Water Temperature: 16-25oC
Description: Probably the most misidentified fish commonly found in aquatic
retailers who incorrectly sell it as C. Julii. The true C. Julii is such a rare import
that sheer numbers means you are unlikely to really encounter this Brazilian fish.
C. Julii is similar to the more spotted forms of C. Trilineatus but has no trace of
any reticulated colour patterning at all and is entirely covered with small, distinct
spots. Its mid-lateral black stripe is fainter and does not reach as far towards the
fishes head as in C. Trilineatus

Figure 4.8 C. Paleatus - Albino
"Males are smaller and slimmer. Females grow larger and are much wider which
can most easily be observed from above." - www.Planetcatfish.com
Figure 5.0 - Sexing Corydoras
As you can see from the illustration above females, are larger than the males,
they also tend to be taller as well. As stated by Planetcatfish.com a good way to
sex Corys is front above, females tend to be rounder and plumper behind the
pectoral fins (See Figure 5.0), this is exaggerated when the fish is full of eggs.
If your fish are young, the sexual differences are not as apparent, another way is
to look at their Ventral fins. Males ten to have longer pointed Ventral fins, where
as females have rounder fins, this is an adaptation as the females clasp 1-4 eggs
at time during spawning between these fins, while looking for a place to put them.
When you have your tank setup any running and your Corys have settled in, you
can start to prep them for spawning.
Depending on what you have been feeding them, you will want to start feeding
more live or frozen bloodworms, or other such foods, less of the dried foods, and
more of meaty food.
Change between 25-50% of the water in the tank with cold water, this will drop
the tank temp down by several degrees. This simulates the raining season, in
which the Corys spawn in the wild. I also drop the thermostat down to about 2324*
C (74-76*F) creating an over all cooler tank setup.
You should notice that over the next week the female will plump up and become
apparently fat.
The males will start to chase the females. You will notice the females start
cleaning the tank walls; this is in preparation for the eggs.
From Egg to Fry
In this section will we look at the collection, and care for the eggs, and also the
feeding, caring and growing out of the fry.
Figure 6.1.1 A Cory egg on a leaf
Once your Corys have laid their eggs, you will want to either remove
the eggs or the parents.
It is seen as a better option to remove the eggs from the parents
tank, where the eggs can be hatched under 'clean' conditions.
Depending on what method you choose, you may remove the eggs to
separate tank.
I use a 3 gallon tank to hatch the eggs in; the water is set to around
26oC. The warmer temperature helps quicker developments of the
To remove the eggs there are two ways which are widely used, these
are known as "The Roll Method" and "The Razor blade method"
The Roll Method
Apply a slight pressure to the egg, be careful as they will burst. and
push the egg up the glass, it should come away from the glass and
be stuck to your finger.
Now push the egg gently, again, against the glass in the hatching
tank, and roll you finger down, the eggs should still be sticky and it
should stick to the glass.
The Razor Blade Method
Use a razor blade to scrape the eggs from the glass of the spawning
tank and then place the eggs on the glass as stated above in "The
Roll Method"
The Tank
The eggs are very susceptible to fungus infections so to help prevent
these, you will need to add some Methylene blue to the water, be
careful as this will stain EVERYTHING.
You will also need to add an air stone, this ensure the water in the
tank is continuously moving. This will help the fry when they hatch to
reach the surface to fill their swim-bladders with air.
The Tank Setup
There are many techniques used for fry tanks, but the one we will focus on here
is the bare bottom method.
Bare bottom Method
You will need a small tank of between 2-5 gallons, depending on the number of
fry. The Tank will be completely empty, apart from a sponge filter and the heater.
Keep the water temp quiet high, around 26oC. In high temps, the fry will eat more
and grow quicker.
You will want run a small air-stone for the first few days of the frys lives; this will
keep the water oxygenated, the water moving and also helps the fry to reach the
surface for air.
On about day 3-4 you want to install your sponge filter, Huey Hung produces a
small sponge filter which is excellent for fry tanks, and they run nearly silent,
depending on your air pump.
Every day, change between 20-50% of the water, as clean water is essential for
the first few months. You can make up a bucket of water and use that so the
water will be room temperature, as sudden drops or rises in temperature will
cause the fry to die. Make sure you clean the sides and floor of the tank as well,
as the fry are very susceptible to bacterial infections and fungus.
The feeding of your fish should be done between 2-4 times a day, depending on
what you are able to do, if you are feeding microworms you can add a large
amount each time and get away with only two feeds a day, as the worms will live
for about 48hours under water.
Over the next few months the fry will grow rapidly and will need to be moved to a
bigger tank, after about 3 months the growth rate will slow.
After about 3-4months the fry should be about 1-1.5 in total length and will be
ready to move into your community or Cory tank. They are also now large
enough for aquatic shops to buy and sell on. You maybe able to get store credit
or cash for the fish, but dont just turn up with the fish and demand they take
Your best method would to be contact the retailer first, and find out if they are
willing to take the fish off your hands.
Microworms By Carmen Webb
You want to make this as soon as the eggs are laid as t will take a few days for
the culture to become ready; I make a new culture every 4 -5 days. You can feed
them to all your fish; they all go absolutely mad for them, especially the Corys.
Although some large fish will ignore the worms, they will be eaten by small tetra
and other small fish.
Required Items:
Two containers
Large margarine tubs will work fine, or the tubs you buy for holding
food stuffs, which are easily bought from a supermarket.
Ready Brek or some form of prepared breakfast oats, not Scottish oats.
Dried Yeast
Micro worm Culture
Available from some aquatic retailers, or from the internet.
Pour a splash of room temp water in a cup and add 1 teaspoon yeast. I
normally leave mine to dissolve properly, about 5 minutes.
Figure 6.2.1 Yeast & Water
Then add 5-6 tablespoons of the ready brek and stir. You'll need to add
some more room temp water till the mixture is thick, but not roll into balls,
just slides off the spoon.
Figure 6.2.2 The mixture
Spread evenly on the bottom of your tub, try avoiding the sides. Add the
microworms and mix them in gently. If you need to add a bit more water to
make it easier, then do so. But don't add too much, you don't want it
Figure 6.2.3 Mixture in Tub
Once that's all done, place the lid on the tub and store it where ever you
plan on keeping them. Make sure you have punched holes in the lid
before hand. I just use the scissors; you don't want them to be gaping
holes, just big enough to allow air in the tub.
Figure 6.2.4 Add the Starter Culture to the mix
After a couple of days, you should see them climbing up the sides of the
tub. I use a wooden skewer to wipe them off and feed to my fry. Don't get
any oat mix on the stick, just worms.
Pre-Made Foods
There are a few pre-made foods for fry on the market currently, from crushed
flakes for livebearers and liquid food for egg layers.
As we are talking about Corys we will need the Liquid food for egg layers.
Interpet make a product called Liqui-Fry No1, which is designed specifically for
egg layers.
This comes with instructions, although most breeders dont use pre-made foods
as they dont provide the full nutrition that fry need. Most Breeders will suggest
you use Microworms, which how to create a culture of these has been shown
above, or vinegar eels.

It would have counted — Hamel and Irvine tie in Pablo; run-off election set for Nov. 25 Certification of the Nov. 7 Tribal primary ballots took two days last week, thanks to a tie vote for second place in the Pablo district And thanks to that tie, a special runoff election has been called for next Wednesday, Nov. 25 — see the official notice on this issue's back page. Lloyd Irvine, who works at Two Eagle River School, and Catherine Mathias Hamel, a community health nurse for Tribal Health, each garnered a total of 201 votes after 120 absentee and contested ballots were counted Nov. 11 and 12 in Pablo. The two will face off to see who will challenge four-termer Vic Stinger in the Dec. 12 general election. (Please see page four for campaign statements.) With all the votes counted, three of five incumbents ended up with comfortable almost 2-to-l margins over the next-closest competitor. The count in St. Ignatius was the tightest, with incumbent Ron Therriault only 43 votes ahead of former Council member Joe Felsman. In Pablo, Stinger was only 77 votes ahead of the two second-placers. Here's the final certified count (names in bold will be on the December W 00 0) 1 ballot): ARLEE (four-year term) — Louis W. Adams (inc.), 537; Henry "Hank" Baylor, 251; "Swede" Emmett Couture, 135. ARLEE (two-year term) — Floyd W. Nicolai, 406; John E. Malatare, 204; Kathleen M. Barnaby Plante, 175; Terry L. McDonald.

I try to use 60 percent beer and 40 percent water (as was told to me by a Pizzeria friend) . I have increased the recipe to about 8oz of beer and 5 oz of water. Plus i add a table spoon of Olive oil. I pour the beer into the measuring glass and remove the foam, so it is 8 oz of beer. i have been very happy with the dough. I will continue to experiment with different beers, but I now realize that I must commit more time to sauce development. I got some really good adivice on my Pizzaiolo threadhttp://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,18710.0.html
Recently, I went to Pizzeria with some friends. This Pizzeria advertises that they use beer in their pizza dough and serves that beer with the pizza. While I didn't really notice much a of beer Flavor in the pizza dough, my friends did. They even made a comment about how they could definitely taste that certain beer.
Norma,Start your experiment with either Samuel Adams Double Bock or Duval Belgian Golden Ale. You will notice the flavor and texture. Especially with the Samuel Adams Double Bock, because it is very sweet tasting.TomNhttp://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,17415.40.html

Description & Highlights
Amba JEEVES Model H Towel Warmer - Straight
The smallest model of Amba's JEEVES Collection, the Model H Towel Warmer (HSW-20, HSP-20, HSO-20, HSB-20) features 7 tubular crossbars evenly spaced between two larger, vertical bars. Each stainless steel bar heats up to an average temperature of 145 °F - 154 °F, perfect for warming up towels while in the shower, or drying them after use. Keeping towels warm and dry helps to prevent musty smells and mildew often caused by leaving wet towels out in the bathroom. Drying towels on a warming rack also ensures they are dry and ready the next time you shower, allowing for multiple uses and consequently reducing the need to constantly launder towels.
All Amba towel warmers are designed for continuous use as they each contain a built-in thermostat and an internal thermal cutout function, allowing the unit to reach and maintain optimum temperatures on its own. JEEVES models come with a separate power switch which can be installed in the most convenient location (near other light switches or in another room). Though primarily designed for hard-wire installation, JEEVES models are the only units that can be converted to plug-in units.
Note: Assembly and installation required
Built-In Thermostat & Internal Thermal Cutout:
Thanks to the internal temperature-monitoring system, the unit will cycle itself to an average temperature of 154˚ to 158˚F then switch itself on and off accordingly, much like a hot water tankSecurity Thermofuse Temperature:
As a safety precaution, if the unit exceeds 242˚F, it will automatically cut out and turn itself off to prevent burning accidentsOther Applications:
In addition to warming and drying towels, this towel warmer can be used to dry bathing suits, beach towels, bathrobes, delicate garments, wet jackets, ski boots, socks, etc.Four Attractive Finishes:
This model is available in white, polished stainless steel, brushed stainless steel and oil rubber bronze. Choose the finish that matches the rest of your bathroom fixtures

Cute, but going back
I wanted to love these shoes! I have a severe back injury, and rockports are the only shoes that 'protect' my back from shock and being on my feet all day. Sadly, they have some poorly designed shoes! These are cute, but they are much pointier in the toe, cramming all my toes together. Also the laces are attached in a way that rubs my little toe wrong. I love the color and the style, but these are just not making the cut for me. Sad, because I really need a pair of sneaks I can run around in!

NBA Commissioner David Stern will step down during the 2013-14 season. / Jerry Lai, US Presswire
NEW YORK -- Nearing the end of his announcement Thursday that he will step down as NBA commissioner in 2014 after exactly 30 years on the job, David Stern was asked about his biggest regret.
Professional sports' longest-tenured commissioner broke into an impromptu karaoke routine, channeling his inner Frank Sinatra and singing, "Regrets, I have a few."
BARKLEY RIPS JORDAN: For being cheap?
There is no doubt, Stern has done it his way with authority and compassion.
Stern, commissioner since Feb. 1, 1984, will step down Feb. 1, 2014, with Deputy Commissioner Adam Silver unanmiously chosen to succeed him.
Widely regarded as one of the best commissioners in all of sports, Stern turned basketball into a multi-billion dollar global business after the NBA had struggled to find its place on the sports landscape more than three decades ago.
"It's been a great run," Stern, 70, said. "It'll continue for another 15 months. The league is in terrific condition."
Silver taking over is no surprise; he was Stern's choice from the start.
"One of the things I did best was provide a successor," Stern said.
"Adam has the respect of the owners and the players, he has expertise in the very important areas of social media, international and television, all of which report to him. That focus has only been intensified over the past several years, while at the same time his portfolio has been broadened to include collective bargaining and other matters as well."
Said San Antonio Spurs owner Peter Holt, the newly named chairman of the NBA's Board of Governors: "I love David personally and love Adam. When there are 30 owners and there is David and Adam, we all get to know each other pretty well. Sometimes in a good way, and sometimes not necessarily in a good way, but the point of it is the respect, the love is there, not only for each other, but for the sport.
TV WOES: Big problem for Lakers fans
"Adam is going to take us to the next level."
In an e-mail to USA TODAY Sports, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, who has been fined nearly $2 million by the NBA, wrote: "Contrary to what most people think I'm a huge fan of David's. We didn't always agree but we have always respected each other. It won't be the same when he leaves. I guess we will have to think of something good to name in his honor."
Stern's influence has been near and far, managing all aspects of on- and off-court competition, marketing and business endeavors.
Stern said he knew six months ago that Feb. 1, 2014, would be the date he would step down -- and that Silver was right man for job.
Silver, 50, in acknowledging his future role, praised Stern as being the best commissioner "of all time."
"What an honor to be in this position," Silver said. "I'm honored, thrilled and will do my absolute best to grow this league."
Stern, in his stewardship, transformed the league, as it distanced itself from fans' ambivalence, weak TV deals and minor sponsorships and endorsements. He can boast a strong record that has improved basketball for owners, players and fans.
Stern helped usher in an era of professional basketball in the USA â?? first as outside counsel with prominent sports law firm Proskauer Rose in the late 1960s and 1970s, then as the NBA's general counsel under Commissioner Larry O'Brien.
While much of Stern's record as commissioner is sterling, there are low points.
Chief among them: former referee Tim Donaghy' felony conviction in the gambling scandal; the infamous brawl between the Indiana Pacers and Detroit Pistons; labor stoppages in 1998-99 and 2011 which resulted in shortened seasons; the Gilbert Arenas-Javaris Crittenton gun incident inside the Washington Wizards' locker room and drug issues, including the permanent suspensions for John Drew in 1986, Roy Tarpley in 1995 and Michael Ray Richardson's two-year ban in 1986.
Stern said the Richardson situation "was not a great situation for me personally." But now Stern and Richardson, a basketball coach in London, Ontario, talk before the start of every NBA season.
Born in New York City, Stern, the son of a deli owner, grew up in the New Jersey suburb of Teaneck, attended Rutgers for his undergraduate degree and Columbia for his law degree.
Stern helped usher in an era of professional basketball in the USA â?? first as outside counsel with prominent sports law firm Proskauer Rose in the late 1960s and 1970s and then as the NBA's general counsel under then-Commissioner Larry O'Brien.
It was a transformative time for the league as it distanced itself from fans' ambivalence, weak TV deals and minor sponsorships and endorsements.
Magic Johnson and Larry Bird entered the league in 1980, Isiah Thomas in 1981, James Worthy and Dominique Wilkins in 1982, Clyde Drexler in 1983, and in Stern's first full year as commissioner, Hall of Famers Hakeem Olajuwon, Michael Jordan, Charles Barkley and John Stockton entered the league.
Combined with former ABA stars such as Julius Erving, George Gervin, Moses Malone, David Thompson, Artis Gilmore and Dan Issel, the NBA turned into a valued product for advertisers and fans in the 1980s. During the 1980s and early 1990s, the Los Angeles Lakers, Boston Celtics, Philadelphia 76ers and Detroit Pistons forged riveting rivalries, especially in the playoffs.
Jordan's emergence as a basketball star and as an endorser's dream (Nike, Gatorade, Hollywood) galvanized the NBA in the 1990s, the same period in which globalization of basketball took off -- thanks in part to the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, when NBA players were allowed to play in the Olympics for the first time.
"The Olympic team in 1992 was able to show the world how great our players were, despite some previous questions about the players and their place in the world," Stern said.
Stern said he will still be around for owners to kick around for the next 15 months as the succession plan unfolds. Minnesota Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor, outgoing chairman of the Board of Governors, said Stern will be available to owners and front-office executives at NBA headquarters even after Silver takes over and will be involved in international projects.
"We just think that his leadership will be important to our future," Taylor said.
However, it is clear Silver is in charge. In a February interview with USA TODAY Sports in a conference room adjoined to his Manhattan office, Stern made clear that Silver was the right person for the job, but that it ultimately would be the owners' decision.
Owners are clearly happy with Silver, who was the lead negotiator on the last collective bargaining agreement signed in December after a 149-day lockout.
"Not only did the owners see Adam as the logical leader, but I want to compliment David in the effort to make sure he had someone in place when he got to his point of making his announcement that he was going to resign," Taylor said.
Silver, a graduate of Duke and the University of Chicago Law School, joined the league in 1992 and has worked in several departments, including NBA Entertainment, chief of staff and legal.
He became Deputy Commissioner and chief operating officer in 2006 and took an active role in labor negotiating, fighting on behalf of owners to eliminate financial losses and create an economic system that allows more teams to compete for a title.
"I can't begin to express my gratitude for all the NBA has done for me over the last 20 years and all that it's provided me," Silver said. "I want to say to the players it's a privilege for me over the past 20 years to work with some of the greatest athletes in the world who play the greatest game in the world. From that standpoint, what an honor to be in this position. Lastly, the opportunities for this league are truly limitless."

Craig - That is a perfect pizza. It is amazing the amount of burden we put into our pizza making to reach what we consider perfection. My guests always love pizzas I just want to throw into the trash immediately, knowing the dough did not get enough oven spring or the leoparding was not even or the cheese went slightly over or the f'ing oven is running too hot and the bottom is burning. I am not sure if the pursuit of perfection is just obsessive behavior or the thrill of the game, at least in my case.John
I always think the word perfection is dangerous
Craig looks awesome. Only change I would make is to chiffonade sp? that much basil and put it down under the cheese and oil. I think it would make for a better mouth feel while eating and also elevate the look. Just my 2C. -Marc
Craig, what are the chances you would want to come spend some time down in Austin to help me open the place? I mean your pizza's are incredible.

Story by Brian Lamar, Strategic Communications
On 11 June, at the Defense Language Institute's Fort Campbell Language Training Detachment, 73 Soldiers in the 101st Airborne Division graduated from a 16-week Dari and Pashto program.
When Gen. Stanley McChrystal took command of the International Security Assistance Force, it became clear that an effective way to revitalize counterinsurgency operations in Afghanistan was to have a large contingent of his troops capable of understanding the culture and have basic knowledge of the language.
To foster success, a higher emphasis is being placed on language and culture training for leaders in units during their pre-deployment training cycle. Fort Campbell was the first military installation equipped with a language training detachment designed for this purpose.
"Cultivating relationships is extremely important to the mission and the best way to cultivate those relationships is to learn the language. As a diplomacy force- multiplier, I think it [language] is important," said Spc. Brock Redpath, the Dari course honor graduate.
The majority of the 101st Airborne Division is deployed to Afghanistan and these graduates will be arriving within three weeks.
"Afghanistan is a very critical country to us in terms of what we are trying to do strategically. The culture is very different, and what we have found is that we have to speak their language in order to develop rapport with them and understand what the real issues are to help secure the population and identify threats to us and Afghans that emerge within their population," said Col. Danial Pick, Commandant of the Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center.
For many of the 101st soldiers going through the language course, this is their first deployment and learning about Afghanistan's culture helped alleviate normal apprehension involved with going to a foreign and hostile area.
"We all have a fear of the unknown, so the more knowledge that you can gain about your allies, as well as your enemies, will help you accomplish your mission," said Redpath.
In November, Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the Commander of the International Security Assistance Force, published A Counterinsurgency Training Guidance which contains 17 elements which are the basis for his Campaign Continuity initiative. The initiative promotes training Soldiers in a way which will ensure that each incoming unit has an increased ability to effectively enable Counterinsurgency and Stability Operations at all levels. Language training is a key component of this initiative.
Earlier this year, Secretary of Defense Robert Gates signed a memo directing units to adopt the new Department of Defense Training strategy for pre-deployment.
The second group of 101st Soldiers is currently attending culturally-based language classes in preparation to join the fight in Afghanistan. This class of language-enabled soldiers is scheduled to graduate in September.
Two Soldiers with the 101st Airborne Division were recognized as honor graduates from the 16-week Dari and Pashto language program on Fort Campbell, by Col. Danial Pick, Commandant of the Defense Language Institute Foreign Language.
Col. Danial Pick, Commandant of the Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center awards a certificate of completion to Pfc. Chandler.
Mr. Ahmad Daoudzai the lead Pashto language instructor from Diplomatic Language Services (a contractor for the Defense Language Institute) speaks to graduates.

Greta Kathleen is here!
Greta Kathleen was born April 23rd. She's the sister of older brother Winston Han. Just as Winston has my husband's deceased father's name for a middle name, Greta has my mom's name for a middle name (Kathleen). My mom passed away 5 years ago. Something else very special about Greta is that she was born on my mom's birthday! Thank you, Nameberry, for helping me find the absolute perfect name for my daughter! I believe I came across the name Greta on one of your lists. It fits her so well and I just adore it.

The Battle Rages On
More clients are demanding that you lower or at least maintain their current prices, but still provide quality service. "This is especially true in the commercial bidding market," says Bill Horn of Terracare Associates in Martinez, CA. Horn says that if you draw a line in the sand and say, "This is our price and we will not go lower," you'll probably get left behind. You have to adjust to the market.
Cut Costs, Not Corners
Find ways to cut costs so you can hold prices in line without watching your margins erode too severely. By reducing their own costs and lowering prices where possible, Texas-based Native Land Design has been able to hang onto most of its customers. "I strongly believe that we know our cost structure and manage our expenses with the best of them," says CEO Ben Collinsworth.
Get more productive in the field. Horn says his company is evaluating crew performance on each and every jobsite—from the time employees jump out of the truck until they jump back in.
"Don't let your crews fall into ruts," Horn says. "One guy grabs this while the other grabs that, and off they go, whether the property needs it or not. That's not good enough anymore. We're altering schedules and identifying what clients want done month to month, week to week—then using our personnel in the right places."
Employees with less experience could do the mowing, for example. Horn says it's often the guy with the most seniority who operates the zero-turn. But it should be the other way around. "The lesser-experienced employee should do the mowing so the foreman can spend his time touring around the property doing detail work, identifying what else needs to be done," Horn suggests. (Note: Ensure that employees receive proper mower operation training.)
Smaller crews have helped many contractors improve productivity. "We stick with two- or three-man crews," Horn shares. Bigger crews can result in higher levels of lost time due to confusion and reduced personal accountability. Small crews, on the other hand, must find a way to be super-efficient.
If it doesn't add value for the customer, see if you can eliminate it. Take a look at every single aspect of how you conduct business, Horn advises, from the time you open the doors in the morning until you and your crews go home at night. "If we're doing things that don't add value for our clients, we're seeking to eliminate them," he relates.
Don't Assume Anything
Treat each bid situation and/or client as if it were the only one you've ever had. Just because you've always done something a certain way does not mean you need to continue doing it that way—especially if a given client doesn't care.
Find out exactly what the client wants. If you include something in your proposal that the client doesn't really want, your prices are probably going to exceed what the client is looking to spend.
Pruning is a good example. "If we're pruning all the shrubs on a property six times a year because that's what we've always done, we must find out if the client would be just as happy with three times a year," Horn explains.
Stay True to Your Core Values
Quality is still important, so as a company you'll have to decide which concessions you'll be willing to make. While it's important to find out exactly what the customer wants, it's also important to guard against seeing your reputation head south for doing less than spectacular work. "Sit down as a company and define your expectations up front," Horn advises.
Your portfolio and customer referrals will still work overtime for you, even in a tough economy. Back down in Texas, this has been the case for Native Land Design. "Price has seemed to be king in many negotiations lately, but in those instances where price has been relatively flat among bidders, our book of work and client recommendations have meant much more than a slick presentation," Collinsworth relates.
There may be work you do not want to pursue—especially in those instances where price clearly is king and quality has seemingly gone out the window. For Doug Robbins of Robbins Landscaping in Richmond, VA, a narrow focus has been key to his maintenance division's growth.
"We work mainly in high-end residential," tells Robbins, a 2008 Pros in Excellence Award winner. "We install a homeowner's landscape, then handle the ongoing property management. We're strong in certain neighborhoods where our trucks are seen all the time. Sure, we've had some customers who've lost their jobs and subsequently cancelled or cut back on their service, but it hasn't been too bad."
Offering options has also been key for Robbins Landscaping. "We don't separate our property management services and allow customers to choose one by one," Robbins points out. "But we do offer three different options. That said, we typically shy away from customers who just want basic mowing. We take a holistic approach to property management—and most of our clients want the full-service package, which includes mowing, leaf cleanup, irrigation service and turf care."
Become a Star Salesman
Targeting the right customers, offering options, listening to client needs and wants … all marks of a great salesman. And that's exactly what landscape contractors need to be in the new economy.
"We've invested heavily in business development," Horn says. "You have to in order to set yourself apart and grow. Five years ago we didn't have any business development personnel; our supervisors and account managers did all the selling.
"We create sophisticated presentations tailored to the individual client's specific needs," Horn continues. "Large corporate clients definitely need a good PowerPoint presentation and glossy brochure. A $300/month client probably doesn't need all that, but still needs a professional presentation, and certainly the time to sit down and talk about their expectations."
"Listening to what the client is saying and turning it into what they want is key," Robbins reminds. "After that initial meeting and presentation, if we can come back with what they asked for, and give them a few options, we're almost there."
Be Honest, Remain Patient
Honesty is still more important than anything—even in today's cutthroat marketplace.
"We simply try to be genuine in our presentations," Collinsworth relates. "We don't want to promise something we can't deliver, and we want to be honest about our own imperfections. This approach is difficult; it takes a great deal of belief in your own body of work. But when done well, this approach can inspire clients to really think about what they're looking for in a long-term vendor."
It's also important to remain patient. "Our clients are getting smarter every year, and are tired of the over-promising and under-delivering that is rampant in our commercial industry," Collinsworth tells. "Anyone can promise something, but only a few can actually deliver. Our clients are seeing through those promising the world by checking references, driving properties of similar scope, and having conversations with existing clients to see if the company can really do what it says it's going to do."
When the economy comes back, customer expectations likely will, too. "Contractors who've been blowing below the cost of quality work to make up for lost revenue are creating a recipe for disaster," Collinsworth says. "Many of these same contracts will be up for bid again soon. I don't think these contractors stand much of a chance in the renewal process when clients value experience and quality work over minor increases in service fees."
Robbins sees things the same way, which is why he's toying with the idea of pursuing more commercial maintenance business in coming years. "We're looking at smaller commercial properties that are closely held, such as doctor's offices and apartment buildings," Robbins explains. "We're hearing customers talk about how tired they are of the poor work their current contractor has been providing. They're willing to pay a little bit more for better service again."
"We bid work to make a fair margin—and give the property what it deserves and the client what he or she expects," Collinsworth offers as a parting thought. "This is the best approach in any economy."
The first thing to do is walk the property with the prospect, pointing out the deviations to spec.
Ask if the prospect would like you to bid the services the way they are currently being provided by your competitor, or according to the specs provided in the RFP.
Make sure to point out that performing the services according to spec will be considerably more expensive, but also state that should the prospect have a budget limitation, you would be happy to design a program specifically to his/her needs.
If a site walk with the prospect isn't possible, go ahead and walk the site yourself. Bring a camera so you can photograph the deviations from spec.
Point out the discrepancies (with photos) in your proposal. Include a price for duplicating the current service level, plus a proposed price for the specified service level. Include a reminder that should budget be an issue, you would be happy to work with the client.
Never criticize a competitor because there is always collateral damage. Simply present you own attributes. When done well, you will always outsell the competition.
