This year in a drought in Kentucky, I harvested 9.5 gallons of honey from 5 hives. My other hives, I split as I seen the drought coming and they were not making honey (just some comb in the supers - I am feeding them right now).
I always look for the things that didn't go well during my harvest. One problem I am having is straining / filtering honey. I presently use a stainless steel double strainer. However, I have to strain all my honey twice and I have to clean the strainer too many times from wax capping, etc. I am looking for suggestions of how other successful bee keepers strain / filter their honey.
My thought (and I am new - 4th year) is I would like to find a strainer that had a disposable filter like my coffee maker. Then when it got too full, I would just remove on and place another filter in a go. However, I need to understand what more people are doing.
Thank you for your insight,

When you think of Glasgow, art may not be the first thing that comes to mind. On a recent trip to Scotland's second largest city, my discovery of a vast collection of world-class fine art was not only a pleasant surprise, it was revealing of this city's cultural soul. Glasgow boasts more than 20 art museums and galleries, many of which the whole family can enjoy. Best of all, a number of them are free to the public.

looks like your front and rear fillers may even be usable with a little clean up. Extra points, you have a cocking handle and spring that weren't torched.
I can't wait till someone makes available a way to build these semi. I now have 3 of these $20.00 kits. I want like crazy to have a 9mm carbine.
Centerfire Systems have really gone out of their way for me here the past few weeks as every single kit I have ordered from them has been in outstanding shape. I was very impressed with my Yugo's from them. Even these Suomi's look new, for the most part.
Heres my latest Suomi kit. I don't know what good it does to have the demilled receiver but I guess its cool to have something to model the 80% blanks from.
looks like your front and rear fillers may even be usable with a little clean up. Extra points, you have a cocking handle and spring that weren't torched.
I know nothing...........nothing !
I wonder if that's an early or late demil? What I'm getting at is I wonder if this kit not having the cocking handle and spring cut was demilled with the intent to save those parts.
I've got 4 of them so far, but all have the cocking handles torched.
" The world is a very dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who do nothing about them." - Albert Einstein, 1879-1955
I just went in the closet and looked. All 3 of my Suomi kits have the cocking handle and spring intact.
Whats up with yours having them torched ?
I received two of these $20 Suomi kits with my RPK and PPSh-41 kits two weeks ago and both of them are intact and packaged just like the above picture. I'll be receiving a third kit when the RPD finally ships and am thinking about ordering another PPSh and $20 kit this week which would give me four...trying to make an excuse to buy another kit or two for more additional $20 Suomi's. Anyone know if the CFS $20 Suomi kits are going away the end of December like their $8.99 flat rate shipping is?
You know I'm looking at this from a different perspective. The fact that, like a Sten, we have to re-build practically the entire weapon from the ground-up to make it a legal & functional semi carbine, I'm looking at the potential to feed from the side like a Sten or that German WW2 carbine, based loosely on the Uzi design.
May even use a square steel tube for the receiver!

The "original" Boltcutter Rivet Squeezers:
Project Pink - the Pink and Blue AK-74:
I think these kits were from the bottom of the pile, which means they were cut first. Somewhere along the line, the people cutting them started getting lazy and not pulling the cocking handle or making any effort to avoid messing up the front filler. I ordered some stuff from Centerfire recently and added 2 Suomis with my order in hopes of getting one of these better kits.
The quality of these CFS kits just keep getting better all the time. This is one that came today. Just out of the box - only wiped grease/dirt off the receiver. Minimum torch slag. Barrel excellent to "as new". Sling came along attached to buttstock and barrel shroud. Stock only has a couple very slight dings/scratches - it will clean up very nicely. Word/name "KarPr" written on buttstock in felt marker.
Did I do that?
Thats cool that you even got a sling. I have too much flash from the cuts to fit my receivers into the stock. Was your cocking handle and spring intact ?
I have already started ordering parts to do a semi auto build. I think these will make a fine 9mm carbine, especially with the AR FCG. I am wondering if the national match trigger groups would work in them. I read an interesting story about the Suomi @ gunwriters and it seems these rifles are outstandingly accurate.
I can't wait to get mine done.
CFS strikes agian. Same price for kits of all differnet demills. My first 2 had everything torched. Second 4 I had 3 kits that had mostlty useable rear and front fillers. The second 4 had the all teh coking handle in tact. I also got one M31/42 kit which has the funky built in muzzle brake.
Lois told me that the kits were all done at the same time and they have been all over the map as far as de-mill goes.
I got one for a Suomi build and 3 for 9MM SuomAK's

Jennifer sounds like a good older sister .
BTW, I didn't quite get how Mirai's self-esteem seems alarming. Isn't she just being Japanese here?"There are always moments when I think about leaving skating, but when I think about that I'm not very smart and I'm not very pretty and there's nothing else that stands out about me besides my skating." she said, though she certainly comes across as bright and funny and is unquestionably attractive.
"So it's like the love of my life. It's like loving someone. You want to break up sometimes but if you get past those hardships everything will come together."
If she had said her first statement in Japanese (i.e., "I'm not very smart and I'm not very pretty"), people would just take it as socially appropriate manners for a bright, charming girl like Mirai.
She actually makes a positive comment about her skating ("stands out"). She then talks about love with a great insight (that's how she is smart). She expresses her faith in ultimate success with a resilience to overcome hardships ("if you get past those hardships everything will come together").
I just read her comment as being mature enough to face these conflicting emotions. It seems that she sees her skating as something worth living for ("love of my life"), that she wants to shine through it ("stands out"), and that she is committed enough to go through hardships because she loves skating so much.

BATON ROUGE (AP) — Louisiana residents who hunt with a trained bird of prey may soon have less paperwork and be able to keep more raptors.
Falconers must currently get state and federal permits and a Louisiana game breeder's license. But starting Jan. 1, 2014, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service won't be issuing falconry permits. It has set minimum standards for states that wish to keep falconry programs.
There are more than 60 licensed falconers in Louisiana.
The Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Commission plans to merge federal rules into its rules, and will use the Louisiana game breeder's license as a license for falconers. The department also plans to use electronic registration rather than paperwork.
There would still be apprentice, general and master falconers. Apprentices have permits to learn from general or master falconers, and must spend at least two years as apprentices before applying for a general permit.
Apprentices would remain limited to one raptor, but could choose from more species. They now cannot own any raptor other than an American kestrel, red-tailed hawk or red-shouldered hawk.
General falconers could possess three raptors instead of two, and master falconers could possess five instead of three.
The full notice of intent approved Oct. 4 is available at http://www.wlf.louisiana.gov/action-items .
Public comment will be accepted at any monthly commission meeting through Dec. 6, or can be submitted through Dec. 5 to Kenny Ribbeck, LDWF Wildlife Division, P. O. Box 98000, Baton Rouge, LA 70898-9000, or kribbeck(at)wlf.la.gov.

Spanking of students allowed in Texas?
Original post made by Resident, Another Pleasanton neighborhood, on Sep 24, 2012
In Texas, according to this article, corporate punishment of students is allowed, and a teen girl (spanked by a male) got bruises out of the deal:

Leaving policy up to states, given that we have some very backwards states, is simply not a good idea.
a resident of Vintage Hills
on Sep 24, 2012 at 9:13 am
Kathleen Ruegsegger is a registered user.
Isn't it true that state law can override federal law if it is stronger law? So having more federal government wouldn't necessarily change this.
And do parents sign waivers regarding corporal punishment? Here is just the first public school document: Web Link (which allows you to opt out of corporal punishment) and here is a district where we once lived: Web Link (no corporal punishment allowed)
I recall getting stacks of papers requiring parent signatures (any district where we've lived). If I did not agree, I would cross out the part I would not allow and then sign. Parents need to be proactive.

Wow, Resident, my head is still spinning from your statements. I guess I always knew that there were people out there who thought some beauracrat 2500 miles away knew how to raise kids better than the parents, and there it is in writing. "Leaving policy up to states...is simply not a good idea." People are just too darn stupid to have any control over their own lives and we need the federal government to make all of our decisions. That is what you're saying, isn' it?
a resident of Stoneridge
on Sep 24, 2012 at 11:40 pm
The snicklefritzes got caught cheating for God's sake. What did they expect, a pat on the head? Parents should be able to do what they want to their kids, just so long as they don't kill them or abort them, which is kind of the same thing. To heck with law, kids are parentel property. And I say we need more male principals and campus cops swatting teenage girls' bottoms with 2 X 4's. Keep goverment out of our lives!
a resident of Another Pleasanton neighborhood
on Sep 25, 2012 at 8:35 am
"People are just too darn stupid to have any control over their own lives and we need the federal government to make all of our decisions. That is what you're saying, isn' it?"
I think we need to have some rules and laws that apply to all states.
What I am saying is that there are some states that are so backwards in their thinking that they cannot and should not be allowed to make their own rules, because that would be worse that a third world country (spanking of minors at school, etc). Did you read a couple of years ago how in Texas they had arrested a couple of adults for violating sodomy laws? That case went to the supreme court and it forced Texas to get rid of that silly law. This spanking thing imo needs intervention from outside of Texas.
Parents need to take responsibility for their kids, but no one in a school or other state run agency should have the right to spank a child, and in Texas, it is allowed. That used to be okay in the past, but not now. No teacher, or principal should spank a student, there are other ways to punish a student who misbehaved.
Spanking a teen for cheating? How about giving her an F instead? And even if the parents agree to the spanking, it should not be an option! The lesson is certainly not learned anyway. A permanent F on the academic record would be more efficient, and would not violate the child's rights.
And I do see a problem with two males (the principal and a police officer) spanking a teen girl behind closed doors.
a resident of Another Pleasanton neighborhood
on Sep 25, 2012 at 8:38 am
"What did they expect, a pat on the head?"
An F maybe? Certainly not corporal punishment. Even prisoners do not get that, but a teen girl does get it? It was not the parent who spanked the teen, it was the male principal, behind closed doors! Do you not see something wrong with that? And it left bruises! Texas needs to redo their rules/laws because allowing an adult to use corporate punishment with a student is simply wrong!
a resident of Del Prado
on Sep 25, 2012 at 12:09 pm
Resident, why do you feel that you have the right to impose your beliefs on other people? The people involved in this case violated the law and I suppose they will be held accountable. If the residents of the town or state don't like corporal punishment there are means to change that. You stated that corporal punishment used to be OK but it isn't now; that's your opinion. Who put you in charge as dictator? Your suggestion that the federal government tell the states what they can and can't do is called tyranny. We have a constitution to prevent that from happening.
a resident of Stoneridge
on Sep 25, 2012 at 12:23 pm
Your my hero Getting Vertigo. I'm from Mississippi, and if it hadn't been for the dictatorialist federal goverment telling us what to do, we'd still have slaves. States rights should always take priory over Federal dictatorialist laws. Now we have black people pushing dumb white folk out of our universities, all because the communist Kennedy and the activist liberal judges stepped in and pushed all us good white god fearing folks around. We maybe have better football teams now, but we lost a fortune when the Tyrannical Feds took away our slave labor.
a resident of Another Pleasanton neighborhood

"We have a constitution"
If you really believe in the constitution, then why are you defending corporal punishment of minors?
You know? In the past, there were states where interracial marriage was illegal, and thanks to federal laws, those states had to end their nonsense and follow other states that were already smart enough not to have such archaic laws and backwards views. States sometimes need the guidance of the federal government, not always, but it is necessary when dumb people make dumb laws that violate others' rights. A child has the right to be free of the threat of corporal punishment regardless of how he/she behaves at school.
Corporal punishment of minors by a school official is wrong. I am pretty sure that if a parent spanked their child so hard that it left bruises, and that child went to school and showed their bruise to a teacher, the teacher would call CPS (by law they have to). So why is it okay for an administrator (a male principal) to spank a teen girl and cause bruises as a result?
The federal government needs to intervene here, and force Texas to change the law that allows schools to use corporal punishment.
a resident of Another Pleasanton neighborhood
on Sep 25, 2012 at 2:44 pm
You stated that corporal punishment used to be OK but it isn't now; that's your opinion"
It is the opinion of the majority of people:
"Spanking students has been outlawed by 31 states, but past efforts to ban it in Wyoming, North Carolina, Louisiana and Texas failed."
Web Link
and here is what the American Academy of Pediatrics has to say about spanking:
"For Release: July 2, 2012
The use of physical punishment to discipline children has been linked to a range of mental health problems and is strongly opposed by the American Academy of Pediatrics."

I've said all along that Texas and Alaska should secede from the nation. Then they can reinstitute laws against interracial marriage, perhaps reinstitute slavery, and permit school principals the right to leave bruises on little girls' bottoms. The deeper the bruise, the more the memory of wrongdoing will linger. This is why we are being outcompeted by the Chinese, Indians, and Uzbekistanis. In Uzbekistan, girls caught cheating are boiled in water before the premier's eyes. But here, all we do is molly cauldell our kids because Big Brother thinks it knows better than individuals like me.
I was talking about this at my backyard barbeeque when a deseased liberal came onto my property. Here I was trying to be neighborly and this liberal wanted to spread her desease among the whole neighborhood. I very politely but firmly told her to get out of my yard and out of the neighborhood. We don't need some federal goverment making choices that we as individuals can make on our ownsum.
a resident of Del Prado
on Sep 25, 2012 at 8:14 pm
Resident, you're caught up in the fact that you don't agree with the spanking. I'm not arguing in favor of corporal punishment I'm arguing against giving more control to the federal government when it should remain in the hands of state and local governments where citizens can have much more influence.
If you don't support corporal punishment in your kid's school you can opt out as Kathleen suggested, go the school board meetings and demand that it be changed, or send your kid to another school. Based on the story, the laws were clearly broken but your reaction is to hand over more rights to the federal government. It's a foolish move to hand over power that you have through local and state representation.
In the eyes of the federal government, possession or use of marijuana is illegal even for medicinal purposes. Maybe you agree with that or maybe you don't. If you don't agree with it, and your state or local government has no authority to set its own laws, good luck getting the feds to change their law.
By the way, there is no federal law that made it illegal to ban interacial marriage. This is from a Supreme Court decision based on the Constitution.
a resident of Stoneridge
on Sep 25, 2012 at 8:52 pm
And the Supreme Court decision on interracial marriage overrode states' ban upon such, no? And the ruling' was backed by, enforced by the feds, no? I guess after you write a little bit you lose track of your argument. But aside from his soft-headedness, I bet Southern plantation owners would have welcomed Vertigo with open (white) arms. And I wish more of Vertig's ilk had been around when the late great George Wallace attempted to stop the feds coming into the South to enforce desegregated schooling. Perhaps we'd still have a "states' rights" supported segregationist system of education in the South. But no, instead, all we have is a bunch of patriot tea partiers who long for the good old days.
a resident of Another Pleasanton neighborhood
on Sep 26, 2012 at 7:52 am
"Resident, you're caught up in the fact that you don't agree with the spanking. "
I don't agree with the spanking, but that is just an example of how some states have rules/laws that are so unreasonable that the federal government should step in. Just because the residents of Texas agree with those unreasonable laws, it does not mean they should stand. Imagine if we had listened to states and their residents when many civil rights laws were passed. I am sure that if it were up to some states (and their residents), we would have some very backwards states where you would still see abortion being illegal, interracial marriage being illegal, etc
"By the way, there is no federal law that made it illegal to ban interacial marriage. This is from a Supreme Court decision based on the Constitution. "
Yes, i agree I called them the wrong thing, but I think of that ruling as a federal law (you are right, it is not, Loving was decided by the Supreme court but it is essentially a federal law since it overrules the states' individual anti-interracial marriage laws)
I still think that when backward states like Texas have unreasonable laws, and if no one is challenging the law by going all the way to the supreme court (a long process), the federal government should step in. I guess that is why it is important not to elect backwards thinking individuals, both at the state and federal level.
And the republicans do agree with some federal laws.. ask Boehner and his actions in support of the DOMA - hypocrisy?
And giving states the freedom to decide is still not enough. Just think of MA, where same sex couples can marry. Those marriages are still not recognized at the federal level (they should but they are not). If you give states too much autonomy, then what we have is a bunch of individual countries, each deciding and enforcing its own laws.

text: today I was going to surprise my girlfriend with a new cd player in our 2002 suburban. I hooked it up as best as I could, it worked fine in the driveway. As soon as I backed out of the driveway, it began flashing. no sound, just flashing. Once the sun set and headlights were needed, I noticed the instrument panel lights were out. Has this happened to anyone else? Id so, how did you fix it?


text: OK, I know the coventional wisdom is to breed from the best in the apiary, but my question is concerning capturing the VSH, Minn. Hyg. from some Queens that I purchased this year, but turned out to be duds as far as production is concerned. I have watched 2 of the 10 be superceded and the DAUGHTER Queens are showing signs of doing very well. And are following the expected course that I had for thier mothers. So, I am looking for feedback on what pitfalls I may be missing if I were to graft off of these Queens. It is always possible that they purchased Queens were poorly mated, but still a viable candidate for grafting. Any thoughts would be greatly appriecated, Paul

Soaring Together at the MFG Meeting
Overall, the mood at the recent Manufacturing for Growth (MFG) meeting was buoyant; worries about health care costs, the federal budget and the skills shortage are creating significant headwinds for economic recovery. Compelling advice on maintaining a winning attitude from a former jet fighter pilot ended the meeting on a lofty tone.
From left to right, John Walker, chairman, Oxford Economics; Johan Israelsson, president of Sandvik Coromant; and Ken Mayland, president, Clearview Economics answer questions during a Q&A session at the recent MFG meeting.
The recent Manufacturing for Growth (MFG) Meeting in Waikaloa, Hawaii, brought together more than 600 representatives of three key manufacturing industry groups. The joining of AMT -The Association For Manufacturing Technology, National Tooling & Machining Association (NTMA) and Precision Metalforming Association (PMA) for The MFG Meeting links the entire manufacturing chain, from OEMs to distribution to end-user shops and factories.
Overall, the mood among attendees was buoyant, although nagging uncertainty about health care costs, irksome budget wrangling in Washington and a persistent skills shortage are creating significant headwinds for economic recovery. The educational conference sessions were solid and insightful.
The parts of the conference I enjoyed the most were the precision machining breakout session and the leadership pep rally on the last day led by Lt. Col. Rob "Waldo" Waldman. The breakout session was particularly lively. About two dozen job shops (mostly in aerospace) zeroed in topics related to either maintaining profit margins in the face of rising costs or acting on opportunities. These topics included:
- Social networking
- Customer price reductions
- Wellness programs
- Economic forecasting
- Additive manufacturing
- Cost of technology
- New network security rules
Advice on how to handle persistent mandates from aerospace contractors for price reductions included some options such as firm, disciplined resistance (just say NO) and negotiated give-backs such as commitments to contract extensions or prepayment of material costs. Several shops shared their positive experiences with wellness programs that have proven to be effective at holding down healthcare costs. The general advice on additive manufacturing was to take this technology seriously, but recognize that it is still in its infancy. Overall, the strong consensus arising from this session is that this is a good time to invest boldly in new manufacturing technology.
Rob Waldman's session, "Never Fly Solo! The Power of Partnership to Reach New Heights in Business," was intense, emotional and engaging. I'm usually left a bit unmoved by "motivational" speakers, but found him to be rather compelling. What made this speaker memorable for me was encountering him in the hotel lobby a few days later. Rob and I chatted for over an hour. His account of how diligently and thoroughly he prepares for each presentation thoroughly impressed me. He tailors his remarks to connect with each audience's special interests, based on his insights into the current challenges they face. He studies the conference program, meets the other speakers and gets to know a cross-section of attendees. Commitment to excellence and being mission-ready are two the tenets of success in battle that Rob emphasizes. Clearly, he applies them to his own goal to be a top-flight speaker.

The Essure system is a type of permanent birth control for women. It cannot be reversed.
During insertion of the Essure system, your health care provider uses flexible tube with a small camera (hysteroscope) inserted through the vagina, into the cervix and up to the uterus. Once the openings to the fallopian tubes are visualized, small metal and fiber coils are passed through the hysteroscope and into your fallopian tubes. The Essure system causes scar tissue to form around the coils, blocking your fallopian tubes and preventing sperm from reaching the egg.
The Essure system takes three months to become effective in preventing pregnancy, and in some women, it may take up to six months. During this time, you must use other contraceptive methods to prevent pregnancy. Essure doesn't offer protection from sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
The female condom is a birth control (contraceptive) device that acts as a barrier to keep sperm from entering the uterus. It protects against pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). The female condom is a soft, loosefitting pouch with a ring on each end.
One ring is inserted into the vagina to hold the female condom in place. The ring at the open end of the condom remains outside the vagina. The outer ring helps keep the condom in place and is also used for removal.
Only two female condoms — the FC1 female condom and its replacement, the FC2 female condom — have Food and Drug Administration approval in the U.S. The FC1 female condom, which is made of plastic (polyurethane), is no longer being produced. The FC2 female condom is made of synthetic latex and is pre-lubricated with a silicone-based lubricant.
Fetal fibronectin is a protein that acts as a "glue" during pregnancy, attaching the amniotic sac — the fluid-filled membrane that cushions your baby in the uterus — to the lining of the uterus.
Fetal fibronectin is often present in vaginal discharge before week 22 of pregnancy. Fetal fibronectin also begins to break down and can be detected in vaginal discharge toward the end of pregnancy.
If your health care provider is concerned about preterm labor, he or she might test a swab of secretions near your cervix for the presence of fetal fibronectin between week 22 and week 34 of pregnancy. A positive fetal fibronectin test is a clue that the "glue" has been disturbed and you're at increased risk of preterm labor.
A fetal ultrasound, or sonogram, is an imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images of a baby in the uterus.
Fetal ultrasound images can help your health care provider evaluate your baby's growth and development and determine how your pregnancy is progressing. A fetal ultrasound might also give you the chance to study your baby's profile months before delivery. In some cases, fetal ultrasound is used to evaluate possible problems or confirm a diagnosis.
Fetal ultrasound is often done during the first trimester to confirm and date the pregnancy and again during the second trimester — between 18 and 20 weeks — when anatomic details are visible. If your baby's health needs to be monitored more closely, ultrasounds might be repeated throughout the pregnancy.
First trimester screening is a prenatal test that offers early information about a baby's risk of certain chromosomal conditions — Down syndrome (trisomy 21) and Edwards syndrome (trisomy 18).
First trimester screening has two steps:
Typically, first trimester screening is done between weeks 11 and 14 of pregnancy — although a form of the screening can be done as early as nine weeks.
Using your age and the results of the blood test and the ultrasound, your health care provider can gauge your risk of carrying a baby who has Down syndrome or Edwards syndrome.
If your risk level is low, first trimester screening can offer reassurance of a healthy pregnancy.
If your risk level is moderate or high, you might choose to follow first trimester screening with another test that's more definitive.
Focused ultrasound surgery is a noninvasive treatment option for uterine fibroids — noncancerous growths of the uterus. A pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan is typically performed before treatment to determine whether you're a good candidate for focused ultrasound surgery.
Focused ultrasound surgery — also called magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound surgery or focused ultrasound ablation — is performed while you're inside an MRI scanner equipped with a high-energy ultrasound transducer for treatment.
The images give your doctor the precise location of the uterine fibroids and the locations of nearby structures to be avoided, such as the bowel and bladder. While the MRI monitors the targeted fibroid and surrounding structures, the ultrasound transducer focuses sound waves into the fibroid to heat and destroy small areas of fibroid tissue.
Not widely available, focused ultrasound surgery typically is done at specialized clinics.
A forceps delivery is a type of operative vaginal delivery. It's sometimes needed in the course of vaginal childbirth.
In a forceps delivery, a health care provider applies forceps — an instrument shaped like a pair of large spoons or salad tongs — to the baby's head to help guide the baby out of the birth canal. This is typically done during a contraction while the mother pushes.
Your health care provider might recommend a forceps delivery during the second stage of labor — when you're pushing — if labor isn't progressing or the baby's safety depends on an immediate delivery.
A forceps delivery poses a risk of injury for both mother and baby. If a forceps delivery fails, a cesarean delivery (C-section) might be needed.
Group B streptococcus — also called group B strep — is a common bacterium often carried in the intestines or lower genital tract. Although group B strep is usually harmless in adults, it can cause complications during pregnancy and serious illness in newborns. If you're pregnant, your health care provider will likely recommend a group B strep test during the third trimester.
During a group B strep test, your health care provider will swab your vagina and rectum and send the samples to a lab for testing. In some cases, you might be given instructions on how to collect the samples yourself. Because you can test positive at certain times and negative at other times, you'll need to repeat the group B strep test each time you're pregnant.
If the group B strep test is negative, no action is needed. If the group B strep test is positive, you'll be given antibiotics during labor to prevent group B strep disease in your baby.
The human papillomavirus (HPV) test detects the presence of human papillomavirus, a virus that can lead to the development of genital warts, abnormal cervical cells or cervical cancer.
Your doctor might recommend the HPV test if:
The HPV test is available only to women; no HPV test yet exists to detect the virus in men. However, men can be infected with HPV and pass the virus along to their sex partners.
In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a complex series of procedures used to treat fertility or genetic problems and assist with the conception of a child. During IVF, mature eggs are collected (retrieved) from your ovaries and fertilized by sperm in a lab. Then the fertilized egg (embryo) or eggs are implanted in your uterus. One cycle of IVF takes about two weeks.
IVF is the most effective form of assisted reproductive technology. The procedure can be done using your own eggs and your partner's sperm. Or IVF may involve eggs, sperm or embryos from a known or anonymous donor. In some cases, a gestational carrier — a woman who has an embryo implanted in her uterus — might be used.
Your chances of having a healthy baby using IVF depend on many factors, such as your age and the cause of infertility. In addition, IVF can be time-consuming, expensive and invasive. If more than one embryo is implanted in your uterus, IVF can result in a pregnancy with more than one fetus (multiple pregnancy).
Your doctor can help you understand how IVF works, the potential risks and whether this method of treating infertility is right for you.

The Destination
The White Mountains of New Hampshire—home of the burliest, most foreboding peaks in New England—inspired hundreds of painters and poets in the mid-19th century. Even today, nearly a decade after the collapse of the iconic Old Man of the Mountain, this dynamic range hasn't lost a lick of its allure. Sunsets through the region's iconic birch trees make for an etherial scene, and miles and miles of wilderness appeal to that quintessential American value: rugged individualism. Skiers, mountaineers, and wildlife seekers will find a haven in these rocky hills, but the small towns that dot the valleys offer country-style comforts in homegrown artisan shops, restaurants, and coffeehouses.
The Digs
Abutting the southeast edge of White Mountain National Forest and just six miles from North Conway, The Darby Field Inn & Restaurant has been welcoming guests for more than 150 years. Traditional Rooms are located on the third floor of this blue-clapboard mansion and are appointed with a queen-size bed, private bathroom with tub and shower, air-conditioning, and awe-inspiring mountain views. When you return from the craggy peaks, you can purchase a hot stone massage to melt away the tension from weary muscles. Or, head straight to The Darby Field Restaurant. May we recommend the bourbon-bacon shrimp to start, followed by butternut ravioli and complemented with a glass or bottle from the cosmopolitan wine list? If that sounds all too formal after a day in the mountains, the Tavern Menu offers bites such as burgers and potato wedges for casual appetites.
The Diversions
• White Mountain National Forest
• Mt. Washington Auto Road
• Stone Mountain Arts Center

Tips sought on gunshot fired into DRW home
Resident heard 'boom'; bullet found in wall
BEND, Ore. - Deschutes County sheriff's deputies said Saturday they need tips from the public to investigate a gunshot found to have been fired through the front window of a Deschutes River Woods home, apparently early last Friday morning, March 15.
No one was injured, but one resident of the home near Baker and Indian Summer roads heard a loud boom around 1:30 a.m. Friday, while another did not. The bullet hole was not discovered until around 2 p.m. that day.
The hole showed the bullet had gone through the upper part of a double-pane glass window, then a translucent window covering and into a sheet rock wall inside the home, said Sgt. Vance Lawrence.
Based on an investigation, it appears the bullet was fired from the general area of the Baker Road/Indian Summer Road intersection into the home, Lawrence said.
"It's probably a random act," Lawrence told KTVZ.COM, adding that their investigation had found the residents were not in any disputes they were aware of. "We have no reason to believe they were targeted or anything."
However, he added, "It's not a stray bullet. It definitely was shot from close by. It wasn't something that traveled hundreds of yards."
The homeowner "left everything as it was" and called police, Lawrence said. When it came to finding the bullet in the wall, "we talked about we could do it or he could do it," the sergeant said. "He cut a couple test holes in the wall, ended up finding the bullet. It looks like small-caliber."
"It's horribly reckless, when someone does anything like this," he said. "The danger of hurting someone is significant."
The residents were not identified by Lawrence, who said they are "nice folks, common-sensical. Nobody wants to think about somebody firing gunshots into their home."
Lawrence said deputies have no reason to believe the incident is related to other recent shots fired into Bend-area homes. Lawrence noted that police go out frequently on reports of people hearing shots fired, though in most cases they not only don't find the culprits, there's no indications anything was hit.
In fact, around the same time as Friday's report, deputies were called out to an area north of the home on a report of shots being fired, Lawrence said. But he said it's not believed to be connected to the incident, as it was on "the wrong side of the residence" whose front window was hit for the shot to have been fired from that area.
As the investigation into a likely case of reckless endangering continues, the sheriff's office encouraged anyone with information that could help to contact them at (541) 693-6911.
You can also contact the Crime Stoppers Tip Line at 1-877-876-TIPS or use the form on KTVZ.COM's Crime Stoppers page. You can remain anonymous, and you could be eligible for a cash reward.

Sequoia Healthcare District to consider increasing Directors Health Insurance
Original post made by Jack Hickey, Woodside: Emerald Hills, on Nov 29, 2012
Now, we have an "in your face" proposal from newly re-elected Director, Katie Kane, to increase the premium reimbursement for Health Care and Dental Insurance For Directors And Staff. It should be noted that 2 half time employees receive the full premium reimbursement.
The Sequoia Healthcare District must be dissolved!

ACTION 5e. Consider Increasing Premium Amount Allowed For Health Care and Dental Insurance For Directors And Staff - Director Kane
Comments (4)
a resident of Woodside: Emerald Hills
on Dec 6, 2012 at 12:00 pm
Predictably, the Sequoia Healthcare District Board of Directors, approved an increase in health insurance premiums for employees and Board Members from $1,200/month to $1,500/month effective January 2013. Yours truly proposed that the benefit for Directors be eliminated and replaced by a much more modest stipend for meeting attendance. There was no second to my motion.
Directors Kane, Griffin and Faro stand to benefit by the increase.
I raised the question as to whether sitting board members could grant themselves such an increase in compensation, suggesting that it should apply only to future board members. District counsel, Mark Hudak, will research the issue and report his findings.

Another beneficiary of the increase is Pamela Kurtzman,listed on the District website as Director of Healthy Youth Initiatives (this is to be confused with the Healthy Schools Initiative Program). Pamela, who was a beneficiary of the overpayment of $400/month in-lieu benefits for Health Insurance, (see:
Web Link) has opted out of the in-lieu benefit and instead will have her $1,267.21/month family health insurance premium paid by the District while she continues to pay back her in-lieu overpayment of $9,046.

In an earlier post, I raised the question as to whether sitting board members could grant themselves such an increase in compensation, suggesting that it should apply only to future board members. District counsel, Mark Hudak, was to research the issue and report his findings. This Director has not been informed of any findings.
In spite of that, payments for Boardmember health insurance premiums as reported in the latest Cash Disbursements Journal, show the following:
Kim Griffin $6,000 for coverage from 1/1-4/30/2013
Art Faro/spouse $1334.06 for Jan 2013 Medicare Supl. TBD
K. Kane/spouse $1334.06 for Jan 2013 Medicare Supl. TBD
J. Hickey $668.63 for Jan. 2013 Medicare Supl. TBD
Shefren nothing reported yet
P. Kurtzman/family health premium Jan. $1,266.72
J. Johnson health premium Jan. $667.03 + 364.99 Medicare Supl.
G. Nielsen nothing reported yet

I have just received a Mememorandum from Mark Hudak to Lee Michelson dated 6 December. This memo was NOT included in the meeting information posted on the District's website. I have requested that it be uploaded to that website. I will post a link when it is available.
I totally disagree with the opinion of District Counsel. Sitting Directors must not benefit from increased compensation upon which they have voted. Mr. Hudak suggests that it is not "compensation".
The facts suggest otherwise.
