In later August and into September bees almost stopped capping honey and I kept waiting. We normally start fall prep about Sept 1. I did purchase a refractomter and it was back ordered and shipping was slow but honey is around 15%. As a result I have two supers of somewhat crystallized honey and three hives with three deeps. Want to get to two deep broods. Didn't need the honey but have a bit of a mess to clean up in the spring.
Does it cool down sufficiently in the fall so that bees slow and quick making wax???
Any suggestions with how to get bees to clean frames from 5 supers? Thinking(in spring) of rearranging brood and pollen frames into two deeps, a queen excluder, a empty honey super with a couple of frames of brood, inner cover(center hole opened), vent box and super with crystallized honey, top inner cover and outer cover.

OCALA, FL- The 2011 racing season at Florida's oldest racetrack begins on March 4th, so Ocala Speedway officials are giving the racers an open practice this Saturday, February 26th, so they can put the finishing touches on their machines. Thanks to an extended Winternationals schedule this year, this will be the only opportunity for drivers to test and tune at Ocala before racing begins.
The Ocala Speedway pit gate will open at noon on Saturday with practice by division on the track from 1PM until 4PM. Admission is $15 per person with children under 12 admitted free of charge. Spectators are welcome to come and either wander through the pit area or watch from the turn 1 bleachers, but must pay admission and sign a pit waiver in order to enter. The grandstands will not be open for the practice session.

More than 2,000 alumni, family members and friends attended Homecoming 2008, making the event the most popular reunion weekend to date. We want to make Homecoming 2009 even bigger and better. Save these dates: Oct. 2-4., and spread the word, encouraging your classmates to return to campus.
Last month, we held the first-ever Homecoming tailgate, which was such a big hit that we're going to do it again in 2009. Bring your grills and food for an outdoor barbecue at the Events Center that will lead into the men's soccer game. We encourage all alumni to attend the tailgate party; faculty, staff, and members of the local community are also welcome.
In addition, Homecoming 2009 will have special gatherings for the following milestone class years and special interest groups: 1959, 1969, 1979, 1984, 1989, 1999, young alumni (2003-09) and political science majors.
Next year's reunion weekend will also celebrate the 50th anniversary of Dickinson Community and the 30th anniversary of the Caribbean Student Association.
We will announce more details in the next issue of Alumni Connect. Early next year, we will launch the Homecoming 2009 website.

I can no longer open my driver's door from the inside, I bought new shocks but lack the tools to remove the old ones myself, and my dash rains on the feet of my passengers when driving in the rain. Uggh. think I'll start with the door handle. Then I'll see what a shop will charge to install the shocks I bought. And since it's winter here in Michigan, I'll hold off on the down-pouring dashboard.

The "Kerri pass" was a 2 day tour which would take me sailing up the coastline of the Abel Tasman National Park and round Separation Point to Golden Bay. This part of coastline is called Te Tai Tapu.
The first documented European visitors to Te Tai Tapu were Dutch explorer, Abel Tasman, and the men of his vessels in 1642. They were attacked by local Maori, Ngati Tumatakokiri, in their canoes and Tasman lost four men clashing with them in Mohua (Golden Bay). Tasman, unusually forbearing, left without setting foot on the shore.

September I'm in love
Then September came in a rush of mountains, flickering windows of sunlight and brilliant color. I feel like nearly every day offered something exciting and new, familiar and reflective. All the right moments came at all the right times. I'm a bit blissed out on the whole month right now, exhausted and just about ready for the crushing rain of October to force me to take a break - but not quite.
I woke up early Monday morning to take John to the airport, leg muscles still tender, nursing a large cup of the "high octane" tar water from the Breeze-In. But the day was nice ... the cloud ceiling was high ... there was clearing to the east ... and I had a lot of time to kill before work.
I headed up Heinzleman Ridge. It was really, really hard to get going at first. My "hiking" muscles didn't hurt at all, and the effort helped mask the soreness in my recently overworked biking muscles - but mostly, I just wanted to sleep. Still, there was a genuine frost to the air that prompted me skyward. First snow - even the mere prospect of first snow, somewhere up there, up high - always ignites my "kid on Christmas Eve" sleep-busting synapses.
Then I found it above the 3,500-foot level. Climbing a few thousand feet doesn't feel as difficult as it used to - do it three to seven times a week, and you get a lot better at it.
I came across a fresh wolf kill near the second "summit" of Heinzleman. Clean bones and a frenzy of fresh tracks in the crusted snow.
Those sure are some big puppies.
I think it used to be a mountain goat. I circled the area, examining their tracks, trying to determine the size of the pack and which direction they went. I couldn't discern either. I guess I should have been somewhat afraid, loitering as I was around a fresh carcass, but I had a hunch those wolves were long gone.
Quickly, the high peaks are being enveloped. I'm still trying to figure out how to shape my winter here in Juneau. Sadly, it can't involve a glut of mountain trekking I've enjoyed this fall. I still lack the required skill set and gear. But I do plan to start at the ground level of learning. I am a perpetual enthusiastic beginner.
I'm starting with working through my fear factor by coping with knife ridges. I inherited a natural dose of vertigo from my mother, but if I can push instinct aside and focus solely on the intellectual challenge of negotiating the route, I've found that mountain puzzles can actually be a lot of fun ... after you're down, of course.
Down just in time for work, body only a little bit worse for the wear, with my soul soaring through the clearing skies. I can't even keep track of how many "mountain highs" I've experienced this month. I don't get sick of them, not in the slightest. I am slightly worried that I'm becoming addicted to them, but I'll deal with that amid what will almost certainly be a long October withdrawal. After all, Juneau's rainy season has to pay out eventually.
Meanwhile - Thank you, September.

First Look: 2014 Ferrari LaFerrari

Yet another jaw-dropping supercar for us to salivate over for years to come. Hello, LaFerrari.

It's always an exciting day when the Prancing Pony decides to woo the world with yet another jaw-dropping supercar. At this year's Geneva Motor Show, Ferrari unveiled its latest special edition, the LaFerrari.
While at first the nomenclature surprised us, Ferrari President Luca di Montezemolo explains that the moniker is the "maximum expression of what defines our company—excellence. Excellence in terms of technological innovation, performance, visionary styling and the sheer thrill of driving."
{"pbembedwidget":"gallery","id":"13707","size":"large","alignment":"left"} A hybrid employing the HY-KERS technology—itself a development born out of Scuderia Ferrari's F1 racing experience—the LaFerrari's dual gas-electric motor has a maximum CO2 output of 330 g/km (50 percent less than the Enzo). The 6.3-liter 12-cylinder engine produces an impressive 789 horsepower, which is then coupled with a 160-horsepower electric drive, giving the LaFerrari a total of 949 horses of unadulterated driving power. This is all controlled through the longer, more ergonomic paddle shifters attached to the F1 dual-clutch gearbox.
The resulting 664 pound-feet-plus of torque allows the LaFerrari to optimize the engine's performance at higher revs (with a speedometer-topping maximum of 9,250 rpm). The power train also converts excess braking power and unneeded torque from the V12 into energy to be stored in the electric motor's lithium-ion batteries, which weigh just 60 kg.
The LaFerrari can easily wipe the floor with each of its predecessor Pony road cars with lap times at the Fiorano clocked at a cool one minute 20 seconds, which makes it a full five seconds faster than the legendary Enzo and three seconds above current production mate the F12berlinetta, which we highlighted last year. To put this in perspective, the 2800-pound LaFerrari can hit zero to 60 in under three seconds and zero to 124 mph in under seven seconds. We'd like to see a showdown between this beast and the new McLaren P1 also unveiled in Geneva.
As with all pieces of art that drive out of Maranello, the exterior styling of the LaFerrari is uncompromisingly powerful, muscular and definitely over the top, and that's not a bad thing. The downward-sloping nose of the vehicle on the front fascia highlights the extensive body treatments that render the bonnet a work of aggressive sculpture. The low, defined wheel arches are a clever nod to the late-1960s sports prototypes of yesteryear but are distinctively of the Ferrari breed. But our favorite aspect of this supercar by far is the strikingly exuberant backside that flows from the glass cockpit down to the moulded rear taillights and finally on to the exhaust. Beautiful, eye-catching and instantly recognizable as it flashes by you and into the distance.
If you're interested in acquiring one of these beasts, you're potentially out of luck as all 499 to be produced have reportedly been spoken for, at an approximate $1.5 million price tag (real figures haven't been released). But perhaps if you can get ahold of one of the other mega supercars from McLaren (P1), Porsche (918) or Lambo (Veneno) that are debuting this year, someone may want to trade—or race—you for a weekend swap.

When you get your minerals out of whack, try drinking Pedialite (or a generic version). It is for young kids who are at risk of being dehydrated from being sick. Not the best tasting stuff, but it gets your electrolytes back in balance.

>...although advice from a physican can't hurt
My experience varies...
Michael Bush bushfarms.com/bees.htm "Everything works if you let it." ThePracticalBeekeeper.com 42y 40h 39yTF
one does not have to put all advice into action...and although doctors are far from always right (or even close), many people's lives are improved and saved by consulting with physicians every day. it's up to the individual to decide what advice from what doctors are worth following.
For long periods in the beeyard you could wear a camelback under your beesuit.
Also a spray bottle filled with water is great way to cool your face, head and neck on really hot days.
And it really helps to put a little something in your water, even if it is just a squeeze of lemon. There is also a gatorade type product called recharge, that is all natural, basically fruit juice and sea salt.
I learned about heat stoke years ago when supervising and
managing a team shaking bees in Georgia.
The amusing thing here is that some of the symptoms of
impending heat stroke overlap the symptoms of Anaphylaxis,
so one has to play a little game show with one self, and
all the questions are very high-value questions.
But yeah, water is good and minimal protective gear is
another. A few stings are less problem than heat stoke,
which is why I've never owned a bee suit.
Salt tablets can be deadly in this environment as pointed
out by at least one other poster. Doctors can be a big
help, as they went to medical school and we didn't.
Note that those being dismissive of medicine are also
generally dismissive of science in general, so it is no
surprise that they would ignore educated medical advice.

I never drink enough water, never have, still don't. For some odd reason I also don't like ice in my drinks preferring fridge temps or warmer. Really cold drinks make my throat constrict and I get the feeling of suffocation.
That said, when I was in my late forties I was working in the garden during a typical 100+ summer day, heat never bothered me before but on that day I suffered a heat stroke. Now I can't endure the heat like I used to, I have to be more careful and force myself to drink liquids. It's also the reason I bought a Camelback to freeze and wear before I go out on a really hot day, and the number one reason to have a Golden Bee suit.
Heat stroke is a life changing event.
Bullseye Bill in The Scenic Flint Hills , KS
X2 on using a camelback, I found out the advantages of using one while doing a century bicycle ride in nebraska years ago.
I cannot believe that all you beekeepers have not suggested some honey in the water you drink - we have had all the advertisements for every company under the sun!!!
You should be all ashamed of yourselves for leaving your own product out of making water taste nice.
Be sweet!
The Camelback is a great idea. I had not thought of that. I work in wildland firefighting and our safety and medical officers recommend using a 4:1 ratio mix of water to gatorade type stuff. Drinking water is great but you also have to add in the electrolytes.
Moderation in all things...
I pour water over my bee suit. Just wet your back, chest and arms. The water evaporating keeps me cooler.
Have a nice day
Your symptoms sound a lot like mine that turned out to be Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever.
Thanks for your time, Beehopper
OUCH! hope you have recovered-bad stuff! good luck,mike
"Wine is a constant proof that God loves us and loves to see us happy" Ben Franklin
When I was in the service we had to mark the uniforms of anyone who had ever had a heat injury like that. The next time it will happen quicker and with less effort. For some reason the body never quite gets over heat damage.
Carry lots to drink and a gallon or so to dump on yourself if you stop sweating again. The key is to get that temperature down again before shock sets in.
I did not know that heat stroke had long lasting impact. I know it impacted me, becuase it scared the crap out of me. (Not to worry...I've been told I have lots! ) I will definately think about always having extra water or juice on hand. The stories have been interesting. Thank you.
After a first time issue with true heat stress, as you have had, It is usually easier for the monkey to get on your back next time around !
Take care!!!
I only work one hive, but I have to work in the elements for my job, often with protective equipment. For the exposure windows you guys are talking about that involve several hours in 100+ degree weather, under full body suits, one camelback probably isn't gonna do it, so have a refill ready. Don't poison yourself by drinking too much water, though (it happens). A good guidepost mentioned earlier is that urine should be frequent, and "Clear and Copious".
Finally, remember to rest in the shade often. Drinking fluids is only one method of regulating your core temperture. With the gear you are wearing, it might not be enough.
It comes right back to respecting nature and what it can do to us.
One thing that helps big time is bring you some 1/2 pickle juice and 1/2 tomato juice mixed up in a old water bottle, after 2 or 3 waters drink that, is will replace the salts and give you energy. Of coarse you have to like pickle/tomato juice. It might sound weird but it works good.
My biggest problem is when im doing a bee removal and cannot drink through my ultra breeze bee suit. Im covered with honey and have about 500 bees at all times trying to get in. Im thinking about a small camelback pack to go on under my bee suit so i can drink some cool water without getting ate up myself

Julius Gribou
UTSA names interim provost and vice president
By David Gabler
Assistant Vice President for Communications
(May 9, 2007)--The University of Texas at San Antonio announced today the appointment of Julius Gribou as interim provost and vice president for academic affairs, effective May 24. He will replace Rosalie Ambrosino, who recently announced she would step down to return to teaching and research.
Today's headlines
- La Prensa Foundation is newest member of UTSA Lone Star Society
- UTSA alumna Jordan Kaufmann wins $50K for new stent-graft start-up
- UTSA begins new way-finding sign installation this summer at Main Campus
- USA Today: UTSA long jumper Tyler Williamson rescues three-year-old boy
Article tools
Gribou, the Roland K. Blumberg Endowed Professor of Architecture, has served as the founding dean of the College of Architecture at UTSA since 2002. Gribou joined UTSA in 2000 as a professor and director of the School of Architecture before it became one of the university's colleges.
"Julius Gribou's outstanding record as a senior administrator and educator have been instrumental in the growth and development of UTSA's College of Architecture," said UTSA President Ricardo Romo. "He is a true asset to UTSA, and his leadership in one of UTSA's fastest growing programs has prepared him well to assume this role while we conduct a national search."
Before joining UTSA, Gribou was professor and department head of the architecture program at Texas A&M University. He earned a master's degree in architecture from the University of Illinois and a bachelor's degree in design from the University of Florida. Gribou was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship to Poland in 1991, where he researched the country's historic preservation systems.
Professionally, Gribou is equally active with the American Institute of Architects and Texas Society of Architects in officer positions and has held committee memberships at the local, state and national levels.
Among his awards and accomplishments are the Edward J. Romieniec FAIA Award from the Texas Society of Architects in 2003, a presidential citation from the Texas Society of Architects in 2000 and, over the past several years, Gribou has served as a juror for nine national and regional design award competitions.
Gribou's community involvement includes serving as a board member for the Southwest School of Art and Craft and the Texas Architectural Foundation. He also is an active member of the Monte Vista Historical Association and the Downtown Advisory Board.
As interim provost, Gribou will work with President Romo, Office of the Provost staff and college deans to ensure a smooth transition during the search for a new provost.
"UTSA has an outstanding collaborative team of administrators and faculty members in academic affairs," Gribou said. "I intend to support them and work to help the university continue its move toward becoming a premier public research university without losing any of our current momentum."
Ambrosino, an expert in social welfare policy and multicultural education, served as provost at UTSA since 2005.

Discussion in 'BUILDS' started by Lugisland, Apr 3, 2011.
Re: The "Algonquin"
Id ride it anyway. No cops going to notice its to big from a distance.
Re: The "Algonquin"
This build is slowly coming together. Instead of cutting the fork threads down, I used some 1" rings as washers. I like how they kinda match the spring.
I cleaned all of the nasty grease out of the motor. It looks like they lubed it with used wheel bearing grease... very nasty stuff.
I re-greased everything with synthetic grease. All of the bolts have been replaced, and I lapped the head and jug while I had it apart. I still need to port match the exhaust pipe. I ordered a manic mechanic billet intake to replace the stock intake. I finished the fins on the head, and after re-assembling, I didn't like the black on the covers. It reminded me of a black & decker hedge trimmer... I painted the covers with the stainless appliance epoxy, and I'm a lot happier with the way it looks now.
I picked up a springer seat at the Ann Arbor show. After a little sanding and shoe polish, I got the color that I wanted.
The gas tank will be a 1 quart paint can. I bought some brass garden hose fittings for the cap, but I need to replace the fuel valve with a better quality one. I cut some old Mongoose handlebars to make a lay back seatpost, but it sits too high and looks
a little clunker(ish) to me. I've got another post getting welded up to drop the seat much lower and farther back while still clearing the gas tank.
I also ordered a manic mechanic 40 tooth rear sprocket and hub adapter to replace the kit sprocket and rag joint. Once I get the new sprocket installed, I can work on motor placement and chain alignment. The cranks don't clear the motor so I need to find some wide 1 piece cranks, or go with a 3 piece setup with a wide bottom bracket. I want to find an ATV thumb throttle too.
Re: The "Algonquin"
Lookin good.
So you'll have 10t on the front and 40t on the rear?
Keep rollin'
Re: The "Algonquin"
ouuuu i like this cant wait for more updates... looks great.
Re: The "Algonquin"
+1 for dh I like the grey/brown very smooth........
Re: The "Algonquin"
Since you plan to be going over 30mph, do you forsee any issues with the standard bicycle bearings withstanding those speeds?
Re: The "Algonquin"
As much issues as the first ever motorcycles?? :lol:
Re: The "Algonquin"
Hate to say.... getting this past 30 MPH may be harder than you think, I have every bell an whistle on mine and 30 is a challenge...
Your also going to need to add more braking power to your bike, the coaster brakes will heat up and fail when starting and stoping at high speeds. Also worried about your paint can gas tank.
Everything else looks pretty kick ...!
Re: The "Algonquin"
He was planning on running coasters with that :shock:
Re: The "Algonquin"
Since you plan to be going over 30mph, do you forsee any issues with the standard bicycle bearings withstanding those speeds?
I cleaned the nasty "new" grease out of the hubs, and repacked them with synthetic wheel bearing grease. I think they'll be fine.
Yup, 10t and 40t. I've read that the 40t gives you good low end torque and a higher top end.
I'm hoping that it will run 30+ mph, but if it doesn't that's ok too. I think it's gonna be fun regardless
The springer fork has a linear pull Shimano (V) brake with Aztec pads. My experience with V brakes and these
pads should be sufficient enough to flip me over the bars if squeezed hard enough :lol: if not, I can add a calliper
brake to the rear. I've had a few friends make some colorful comments about the paint can gas tank already, and I
need to rethink this. My brother offered to help me weld up a tank for the bike so I'm going to mock something
up with cardboard, and see what he thinks. I'd like to keep it behind the seat, but If I do decide to run a tank on the top tubes, I want it to be below them.
Here is a picture of the Pirate cycles 40t sprocket with the manic mechanic hub adapter
Here is the seat post my brother welded up for me. Tom
Re: The "Algonquin"
That hub from pirate is the ticket, that is a big plus, that pirate laid back post is awesome as well!
Re: The "Algonquin"
I made some progress the last couple of days. I got the chain alignment dialed in, and solved the crank problem with some shorty's from a 16" bike. I tore it back down, and shot the frame with clear acrylic lacquer. I also painted the kickstand.
Re: The "Algonquin"
I got the bike started today. I am having a hard time getting it to idle, but it pulls pretty hard when you get on the gas. It's going to be difficult not to open her up during the break in period... After bringing it back into the garage, I was looking at the front end, and the forks (used) seem to be a little bent to one side. I would've liked to have bought new forks, but the price was right on these. It doesn't seem to affect the ride at low speed, but I hope I can get them back into shape. I want to swap out the front sprocket with a smaller one because it's tuff to get it going with the shorty cranks. I also swapped out the bars with some flipped schwinn middleweight bars to give it more of a board tracker look. Tom
Re: The "Algonquin"
I've got small sprockets. Just Saying.
Re: The "Algonquin"
Hey man, I love your build! its coming along beautifully, im getting ready to do one of my own her soon too.
but i saw you were looking at different ideas for some gas tanks so i shopped (poorly in like 5 minutes) a lovely little number that turns out to be "easy" to fab. Now I KNOW it looks freakin ridiculous, its the most horrible shopping ive ever done and for its existence i am ashamed, but i thought id just give a rough mockup and everyone the idea of what a gastank could look like on this baby. Square bodied boardtracker tanks are fairly easy build, especially if a fellah had like a welder for a brother or something... :idea:
Thats gonna be the stuff im gonna run on my bike once i get her to the point :mrgreen: . Anywho, you did great work (I reeeeally dig that engine) there's a lot of different ways that you could take this thing with a gas tank. Whatever you do keep having fun with the build she looks great!
Re: The "Algonquin"
Thank you for the nice compliment SectionEightLife! I actually had a tank just like that mocked up out of cardboard! I was considering the boardtrack type tank, but like I said earlier, I wanted something below the top tubes. I like the feel of the flipped bars too. Okay, so I finally got it running good enough to take it for a ride. I figured that 25 to maybe 30mph would be cool for the bike, so I guess that I kinda had low expectations. I know about the break in period... I know that I'm supposed to drive it like a Grandma for the first tank... but... I headed down the road at a slow pace to make sure that I didn't have any chain line or braking issues, and gradually opened her up. Okay, it pulls pretty good. It pulls really good! Gosh!, this thing is pretty fast. All I can say is HOLY POOP! This thing flat out screams! As I pulled back up my driveway, my neighbor pulled in behind me. Neighbor: "You are one crazy SOB! You were going 41MPH!" I still need to work out some carburetor issues because it seems to bog out after slowing down from a long run like it's loading up. The CNS racing carbs are known to have issues with vacuum leaks and being very hard to tune. I'll keep at it for a while to see if I can figure it out, but if not I think I'm going to go with a Delorto carb. I also made a temporary tank out of PVC until I can get a steel or aluminum one welded up. After much research, I've found that many people have used PVC tanks without any issues. Here are some pictures of the bike with the kit supplied tank that I used for the first run, and the new PVC tank painted up and mounted. Here is a video of it running
Oh yea, I finally got my shop cleaned up, and added the new countertop to the back wall. Detroit Thunderdrome here I come! Tom
Love the seat Jiggle.
Great job buddy.
Could you try to get those cables on the front a bit tiddyer?
When do we get to see the vid?
Wow, you were able to get that up to 41 mph on just a 40 tooth? I think I really underestimated the power of these Super Rats :shock: I've heard stories of these things reaching into the 40s and near 50s without much modification at all but was typically a little sketchy on just how much is "a little modification". I have one of these prepped and ready for a '77 metrocycle (which is just a F. R. A. M. E.) and a 36 tooth sprocket on iddy biddy cute roll resistant 26"ers - plus boost tubes, custom expansion chambers, tweaked carb, better intake, nitrous, ect... I'm intrigued to see how this illegitimate planning is going to work out 8)
In the meanwhile I got this grubee standard getting ready for her swap into a 36 tooth sprocket. she only pulls about 28 mph while maxing out her rpms on a 44 tooth, so it may be revealing to see what my other pride and joy is going to do when I try it out.
I payed close attention to your build while working on thisn' - And yes, the handlebars down always work nicely. Shes fun, not done yet, but fun. However, If there's any one thing that I can suggest to you or anyone else wanting to do this to do: go down to Tractor Supply and pick up a simple 10 foot o' Number 41 Chain. That will solve a ton of problems that you may have or run into with the chain/sprocket. I ended up having to use it for both chains on the lil' hooligan up above.
That's right Ladies and Gents, I was able to fit Number 41 Chain on BOTH sides of a Quick Brick tire :mrgreen:
But I love the build bud, love the bike, keep us posted on any new changes you make!

Assistant Director of Public Affairs
(May 11, 2006)--Veronica Saenz, a spring 2006 graduate-to-be in interdisciplinary studies, is the latest winner of the UTSA Office of Information Technology Laptop Award. She is the fifth winner of a Gateway computer in the award program.
Selected from graduates of the UTSA Academic Development Program (ADP), Saenz received a commemorative certificate, Gateway laptop computer, software, and carrying case at a May 4 ceremony. The Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities (HACU) and Gateway sponsor the award each spring and fall semester.

When UTSA students, faculty and staff purchase Gateway laptop computers as part of the UTSA Student Laptop Initiative, a portion of the sales are returned to UTSA. Money placed in the fund is used to award a laptop computer each semester to an ADP student.
Family members, whom she thanked for their encouragement and support, accompanied Saenz at the ceremony. Guests included her mother, Mary Saenz, and her husband, Joseph Perez.
ADP is a bridge program between high school and college for students who are accepted to UTSA on a provisional basis; the program helps those students achieve academic success. A committee led by Cynthia Rodriguez, ADP associate director in the UTSA Tomas Rivera Center for Student Success, selected ADP students with GPAs of 2.50 and above as award finalists. Finalists were asked to submit resumes detailing their academic and work experience, and UTSA and community activities.
The award was presented by Galen Raether, UTSA director of student computing services; Charles Kennedy, Gateway representative; and Steve Rodriguez, Gateway account representative. They were joined at the presentation by Cynthia Rodriguez; Leticia Duncan-Brosnan, director of the UTSA Tomas Rivera Center; John Moder, HACU vice president and COO; Lorena Blanco, HACU director of development and marketing; and Cynthia Vela, HACU director of communications.
Saenz participated in ADP in summer 2001. She will graduate this weekend with a 3.10 GPA and has been on the dean's list for many semesters. In addition to her academic achievements, Saenz' activities include membership in the Kappa Delta Pi Honor Society, Leadership Basics Organization and the International Reading Association. Additionally, she was chairwoman of the Campus Activity Board entertainment committee and participated in workshops and seminars such as the NASA workshop and Building Custom Kids.
In addition to working since she was a freshman, Saenz volunteered in the community including religious education outreach at her church, Communities in Schools and the San Antonio Humane Society. With plans to become a teacher, she recently completed student teaching at Sinclair Elementary School.

What if every child entered kindergarten ready to learn? What a difference it would make to school leaders, families, and our society if all children received high-quality care during their first three years of life. Evidence continues to grow that school success begins at birth. Our children will never achieve at their highest levels until we change our attitudes -- and commit money and resources -- to reflect the importance of the first three years of life.
As education leaders, we need to be aware of the established links between very early childhood experiences and later achievement. School leaders -- who shoulder the responsibility of raising achievement -- are in an extraordinary position to advocate for high-quality care for infants and toddlers. They can make a strong argument that early childhood education is a crucial part of any plan for student achievement and success.

My pet just
A thread to share what those pets of ours have been up to!
My pet is my daughter's little black and golden cat, Miso. I just found my elderly neighbour propped on her walking frame seat, on the nature strip, taking in the sun.
Miso was sitting companionably beside her, sharing the moment.

My little Lucy has taken to letting me know when she is ready for bed. She walks to the bedroom, comes back to the living room, back to bedroom, etc. Until I get the hint. She won't stop until I go tuck her in. She has a blanky she likes to sleep under.

Re: My pet just
...hates to have his routine changed We took him with us to our daughters place on the weekend and he was really put out....didn't eat his breakfast on Sunday morning and was completely exhausted when we got home as he couldn't sleep in his usual daytime resting spots . He loves time at home doing what he usually does (which isn't much ) resting, going for a walk in the park and sun baking on the lounge in the sun room....his dog's life isn't too bad at all

... gets really embarrassed if she doesn't hear a vehicle arriving. This morning our roofers turned up (yippee - we might have a dry winter inside the house after all!), and she didn't hear the lorry and van - she was so very embarrassed and sidled outside with her hackles raised and a very silly grin on her face ...!

has deceided she needs 3 tennis balls to be happy, but she has started to cry like a real baby (she's almost 10) when her balls roll under the furniture and even if she could paw them out most of the time she'll stare at you and cry and look pityful till you get on hands and knees and fetch it for her. She usually chooses to do that when you're watching something really interesting on TV!

Pablo would get a tiny slice of pizza as a treat when we'd have it. I put it near his food bowl so he could manage, and then he'd bring it out to the deck where we were having our pizza. That was the only time he did that, he wanted to join the pizza party. He was the greatest cat that ever lived.

Six cyclists killed in a fortnight in London and the city's roads have become a battleground – a highly political one. The capital's cycling lobby – young, energetic and media-wise – has launched a strong assault on Boris Johnson, London's "cycling mayor", questioning his commitment to cyclists' safety and accusing him of victim-blaming. The media, smelling blood, has fallen into pack formation.
Johnson has fought back with subtle skill. Urging cyclists not to be plugged into headphones while riding and to obey the highway's codes will have a struck a chord with many motorists and pedestrians and shifted the debate towards the Tory home turf of individual responsibility. The heavy fire aimed at a key element of "brand Boris" may have done some damage, but no meaningful concessions have been made.
So much for the world of mayoral warcraft. As ever at such times, truth becomes clouded and perspective is an early casualty. Is cycling in London really getting more perilous? The statistics can both enlighten and obscure. The spotlight on death rates has enabled Johnson and his "cycling commissioner" Andrew Gilligan, one of his biggest media chums, to claim that the long-term trend is healthy – the number of cyclists killed per trip has fallen over time.
The Telegraph Twosome doesn't look quite so clever when the totals of those killed and seriously injured (KSI) are combined. This much bigger statistical picture shows a pretty consistent KSI rate over the past 10 years, though Johnson's critics point to an overall increase since he became mayor. The rate for 2012 matched the previous highs of 2002 and 2003. The variations are small, but clearly not in the direction desired.
There's a still broader story here, though, one in danger of being overlooked with the focus so very firmly, if understandably, on cycling tragedies. Of the 134 people killed on Greater London's roads last year, by far the largest number were pedestrians – 69 of them. A further 27 were riding a "powered two-wheeler" (motorbikes, moped, scooters), 19 were in cars, 14 were cyclists and the remainder were in a taxi, bus or coach, or heavy goods vehicle.
These figures of themselves tell us little about relative levels of risk, but they're a reminder that safety is an issue for all who use the roads, including those seeking to cross them on foot – while cycling fatalities in London were becoming national news, three pedestrians were killed in the capital on a single day. The road death stats also indicate that road safety is inseparable from the wider issues of urban street design and road space management. This is where the complications start and deeper failings of Johnson's mayoralty are revealed.
Johnson may be the "cycling mayor" who's introduced a hire scheme, but the policies of his predecessor Ken Livingstone (who would have introduced one too) helped cyclists and pedestrians in ways Johnson has eschewed. Transport professor David Begg has described Livingstone as a trailblazer who "believed in a roads hierarchy which prioritised pedestrians, cyclists and buses in that order", and "presided over a modal shift from car to public transport, walking and cycling which was unrivalled worldwide". Road-pricing – the congestion charge – was central to Livingstone's approach, as were "public realm" reforms such as the remodelling of Trafalgar Square.
Under Livingstone the car went down the pecking order, to the benefit of everyone else. Johnson, by contrast, has halved the congestion charge zone, dumped or declined to embrace pedestrianisation, produced no significant plans for expanding the bus service, dismantled the modal hierarchy and made a priority of "smoothing traffic flow" – code for helping cars get around the place faster. Rallying his troops before last year's mayoral election campaign he called his opponents "car-hating". For "good old Boris" motorist umbrage has been a source of votes. His recent "cycling vision" has excited some campaigners, not least for pledging to "go Dutch" with some segregated lanes. But it remains to be seen how much of the vision will live up to the PR.
Parts look nailed on – like the ones planned for roads controlled by Transport for London, a mayoral agency. But most of it, like most of London's roads, will require the support of London's boroughs. Some will take a lot of persuading. And what cyclists really need is a bold strategy for roads encompassing them along with others; tailored measures to calm, regulate and reduce car and lorry traffic, impose the best order of privilege including for the bus – the most numerically efficient means by which people are moved around the city – and create street environments conducive to walking, shopping and socialising too.
Johnson's second term in city hall often resembles a sort of laissez-faire zoo, over-stocked with backbiters, cronies and cranks. Expecting a bold "liveable streets" approach from it is like asking a skunk to smell sweet. Effecting the right type of change is a huge challenge, not only because it requires great political skill and will but also because different good objectives often conflict. Should pavement width be sacrificed for cycle lanes? Why shouldn't the bus always come first? Infrastructure is one thing, but habits and attitudes need changing too. What's more, cars, lorries and, of course, taxis will always be a necessary and often valuable part of London's transport mix. The secret lies in getting that mix right.
• This article was amended on 23 November. Prof David Begg's surname was originally misspelled as Beggs. This has now been corrected.

The Holland Play is a mission given by both Playboy X and Dwayne Forge to Niko Bellic in Grand Theft Auto IV. Both request that you kill the other, and you have your choice to either kill Playboy X or Dwayne Forge. The mission is played differently depending on who you kill. Also, the reward is different depending on who you kill.
Niko Bellic speaks to Playboy at his apartment. Playboy asks him to kill Dwayne, and Niko says he will think about it. Soon afterwards, Niko will receive a call from Dwayne (or you can call him to save the wait), asking him to kill Playboy. The player must choose whether to kill Playboy or Dwayne. Playboy will eventually call Niko (or again, you can call him yourself to save time), and a red 'X' and 'D' will appear over Playboy and Dwayne's locations; make your choice by going to the target's respective location.
If your decision is to kill Dwayne Forge, head over to Dwayne's apartment in the projects of North Holland, Algonquin. Go up the stairs to the first apartment, and you will encounter Dwayne's hobo bodyguard, wielding a baseball bat; he will try to kill you. Shoot him or beat him up. Go around the corner and face Dwayne.
To kill Forge, there are two options -- you can kill him with one of the special execution scenes, or do it the conventional way. Rather than resist, Dwayne simply turns his back on you, disgusted at your decision — in the execution scene, Niko shoots him in the back of the head.
If your decision is to kill Playboy X, head over to Playboy's penthouse in Northwood, Algonquin. A cutscene plays, and Playboy realizes Niko is after him; he retreats to the balcony, leaving his four cohorts to fight Niko. You will be behind some cover; shoot as many guards as you can from safety, then get out of cover and kill the rest. Go onto the balcony and chase Playboy down to street level. Some of his crew will get into a Patriot and try to gun you down. Take care of them, and corner Playboy X in an alleyway. He will drop his jammed Desert Eagle.
You can either kill Playboy in the normal way, or use a pistol to trigger an execution scene, in which Playboy looks to the sky, and Niko shoots him through the lower jaw, the bullet exiting through the top of his head.
There is a much more straightforward alternative — while you are in cover in Playboy's apartment, switch to your rocket launcher (if you've managed to get one — one can be found relatively nearby on the small rocky island north of Holland) and fire it at the bottom half of the open door through which Playboy escaped. Playboy will most likely be caught in the explosion and die while hiding behind the tree - re-aim and shoot again if that's not the case. The mission will pass as normal. If you still cannot manage to blow up Playboy, shoot his goons and go to the left of the big room. There you can snipe him, as you will have a clear view of his head.
A rare instance may occur if you choose to kill Playboy X. After killing his bodyguards & chasing him, X may run through the broken part of the fire escape thus falling to his death. His corpse won't show up after the mission complete theme but the Desert Eagle will still be available for pick up.
- If you kill Dwayne Forge, you'll get $25,000. Playboy will say he never wants to see you again because you killed his mentor.
- If you kill Playboy X, you'll get his penthouse as a gift from Dwayne, and Claude's Outfit from GTA III (only available using the wardrobe in the penthouse). You also obtain a Desert Eagle after killing him (of course, if you change weapons). Dwayne will become a friend, if you respond positively to an e-mail he will send. Dwayne's special ability is to send two gangsters to help you in a gunfight.
Killing Playboy X
- Playboy X; executed by Niko for Dwayne Forge. If he is spared and Dwayne is killed, he will pay Niko his $25,000 promised but refuse to come near him.
Killing Dwayne
- Dwayne Forge; killed by Niko easily to acclaim $25,000 from Playboy. He will give Niko a safehouse, costume and become a friend of his if he is spared.

I phrased that wrong. The Tiger roster has talent. They are just playing sucky.
Changes at top will be likely if Tigers don't start hitting | detnews.com | The Detroit News Talked about firing Leyland DURING the season...It's starting....
JLey was saying they were undisciplined at the plate, just swinging away. BS they just can't hit.
Tigers on a 2-game winning streak. Playoff tickets go on sale next week.
The sky WAS falling in!
Hey ! A little love for Verlanders second no-no ! Course we score 9 runs, 4 more than we needed.
If the Jays scored 0 runs, how many did we need?
I figure at least 5 this year....
nothing less than 5 game in game out
Grey eye, Brown eye Sherzer is 6-0 !!! Lineup is better with Austin coming around.
This is what I mean...the team's got talent, so the manager must go if they don't produce results. .500 ball just doesn't cut it for me....not with this group.
The Tigers have won 6 out of 7 and now you want to fire the manager?
I've set very high expectations for the team this season and they don't include playing .500 ball. It's a long season and if he doesn't get off the .500 mark by the all-star break...then yes...I want him fired....
Still no excuse for that 7 game losing streak at the end of April....the next time he allows this team to get swept in two straight series he should be gonner....even if they are in first place...
Fine Nems, who is there better ? He surely coddled these guys while they batted sand.
I don't think Leyland managed much differently in the win streak than he did in the loss streak.
Is that a good thing?
Yea, a manager has to send a consistent message over a 162-game season. Leyland stays positive through the tough times and doesn't get too excited through the good times (or anytime, actually). Perhaps there is a better manager out there for the Tigers. Who knows? If so, the Tigers may win another game or two over the course of the season. Ultimately, the players have to show up.
Ultimately the manager needs to know when to bench a guy or 3 and get some production. Or yank a pitcher throwing grapefruits. Or sit down on an ump squeezing our strike zone.
Billy Martin coulda won 95 with these guys.....
Separate names with a comma.

Video: No, the father of a Sandy Hook victim wasn't "heckled" by gun-rights supporters
posted at 4:31 pm on January 29, 2013 by Allahpundit
Here's an example of a story not only being too good to check but being so good — potentially — that it warranted a little "help" from the media to reach that full potential. It has everything a fair-and-balanced gun-control advocate/reporter could want: An eminently sympathetic victim calmly making the case for more regulations while the ogres known as "gun-rights supporters" try to silence him by shouting him down. It's a passion play, the supreme manifestation of what Obama was trying to achieve by having kids onstage when he signed his executive memoranda on gun control a few weeks ago. If you oppose new gun regs then you're basically in favor of murdering children. Heckling the father of a boy killed in Newtown is simply the logical conclusion of that impulse.
Except that's not what happened. I'm going to send you over to Twitchy to watch the vid (click the image below to watch), but first you must watch the clips at MSNBC and HuffPo to see how the media's crack video editors are presenting the exchange. It's not "deceptive," it's outright propaganda designed to demonize gun-rights supporters. But it's useful to gun-control activists as a parable of how fanatic and terrible their opponents are so naturally it's making the rounds. Piers, of course, bought it hook, line, and sinker and doubtless will defend getting fake-outraged about it even after he sees the unedited video:
SICKENING: Sandy Hook father Neil Heslin heckled as he pleads for ban on assault weapon that killed his son Jesse: huff.to/116xWJ3
— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) January 29, 2013
But then, Piers is also wont to say things like this:
A child's right not to be murdered by a gun supersedes ANY other right.
— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) January 29, 2013
Exit question: If you're going to take the position that all other rights, including freedom of speech, must bow to regulation if it's designed to protect children, why circumscribe it by saying "by a gun"? Does protecting children from murder by knives or arson not quite rise to the same level?
