Hydro's new home a living, breathing creature
"The new Hydro building on Portage Avenue is a living thing, a glass palace that breathes earth, wind and fire.
If that sounds too poetic, it isn't. The fact is that the most sophisticated green office tower in Canada really does breathe earth, wind and fire, elements as old and natural as the Earth itself, all as freely and readily available for our use as they were before we instead embraced electricity and fossil fuels.
Let's start with earth. The earth below the $278-million building is complex, but as complex as it is, the temperature after a depth of about four metres is 5 Celsius -- everywhere, always. The building's geothermal system is designed to capture that heat and bring it to the surface because, as weak as that energy is in temperature, it is massively and constantly available -- free.
To bring it to the surface, 280 13-centimetre tubes were drilled down 17 metres through dirt, clay, sand and gravel under the building's 90,000-square-foot base. The holes were then drilled down 98 more metres into the limestone layer under Winnipeg.
Glycol, a better medium for heat transfer than water, is circulated through the tubes, carrying heat from the building in summer to be released into the relatively chilly rock, and up to the surface in the relatively chilly winter. But always it is five degrees of heat that is brought to the surface, which means it must be enhanced in both summer and winter lest the building always be an uncomfortable 5 C.
In winter, geothermal heat is mixed with fresh air as cold as -35 in heat exchangers. That mixed air becomes as warm as 10 C in the exchangers and is then released into three 70-foot tall, glass-walled atriums stacked one upon another up the south side of the building, facing the sun.
The solar heat is measured as it shines through the windows of the three identical south-facing atriums. On a sunny day, solar heat is mixed with heat from the earth to raise the temperature to about 20 C. On cloudy days or in winter, the use of gas-fired boilers increases. The boilers heat glycol in tubes embedded in the concrete pillars and floors of the building. The concrete warms in winter, cools in summer, and either radiates heat or retains coolness. It is a principle as old as adobe.
The geothermal system, working in co-ordination with solar energy streaming through windows, is sufficient to provide an astonishing 100 per cent of air conditioning in summer and 60 per cent of heating in winter.
The building is so energy-efficient, in fact, that it uses less than a third of the energy required to meet Model National Energy Code standards. The code standard is 295 kilowatt hours of energy per square metre of flood-space. The Hydro building will use just 91 kilowatt hours. A typical commercial building in Winnipeg uses 570 -- six times as much energy as the Hydro building and almost none of it from geothermal or solar sources.
The savings on energy are more than sufficient to overcome the surprisingly modest additional costs of building green.
"It adds about five per cent more to the cost of building, but when you reduce your energy needs by 60 per cent, it creates tremendous savings over time," Hydro spokesman Glenn Schneider said. "We want to demonstrate that to the business community."
But back to the atriums. No doubt they will soon be things of beauty, with plants and furnishings and the sound of water falling down 280 21-metre-long mylar cables to humidify the air inside while providing spectacular water features. But today they are still under construction -- huge, barren rooms that expose the ingenious engineering that makes them work, that makes them, in the words of project manager Tom Gouldsborough, "the lungs of the building."
Recall that the atriums are the places where fresh air is mixed with heat from the earth.
All of that heating causes the air to at once expand and to rise. The pressure of expansion and the rising air creates a draft that flows from the bottom of the atrium and into crawl spaces beneath each of the six floors of office space that look out over each of the three atriums.
That draft flows under every floor and up through vents into the rooms above. The movement of air is so gentle as to be no more than a zephyr's kiss, hardly noticeable anywhere on any of the 18 floors and 690,00 square feet of the building served by the three atriums.
But the air does move, from the south side of the building to its north side, washing everyone and everything in its path with perfectly fresh, perfectly heated and moisturized air. The ceilings on each of the 18 floors are 11 feet high. As the air rises from the floor vents and moves northward, it also rises in the 11-foot-high space, carrying to the ceiling and away all airborne contaminants and odours -- like CO2 and bad breath -- being created in the vast working spaces.
When the air gets to the north side of the building, it again enters smaller atriums -- six three-storey atriums, as opposed to three six-storey atriums on the south. The smaller atriums feed the air into the "solar chimney."
The solar what? One of the striking features of the Hydro building -- other than itself -- is the rectangular tower that juts from toe to head of the north face of the building. Though it looks like a 114-foot-tall blade to cleave north winds, it is, in fact, a chimney up which all the fresh air drawn into the building from the south exhausts to the north.
At the very top of the clad tower is an open, 25-metre-tall, glass-walled room. Inside are black iron pipes filled with sand. The sun shining through the glass is absorbed by the black pipes and retained by the sand as the temperature inside the chamber rises to as much as 100 C in summer.
Heat created and stored in the pipes helps to draw air through the building, much like what happens when you light a fireplace and encourage a draft by stuffing burning paper up the chimney to dispel the heavy cold air above and draw smoke-filled air from below.
During the nine warmest months of the year, all heat and stale air are exhausted out the chimney. But during the coldest months, the chimney is closed and the warm, stale air is drawn back down the chimney to the basement parking lot, where exchangers extract heat and exhaust the stale air at ground level. Heat gathered in the basement is then sent to the atriums for recirculation.
In other words, unlike most conventional office buildings that recirculate stale air and exhaust heat from their chimneys, the Hydro building recirculates heat and exhausts stale air.
Another striking feature of the building is that it looks different from every angle, and at different times of the day.
The different exterior prospects are a result of its footprint -- imagine a huge capital A lying on the ground, as opposed to the square or rectangular footprints of most buildings.
The point of the A is the solar chimney, which faces due north. The little bar joining the bottom of the capital A are the atriums, which face due south to capture as much sunshine as possible year round. The long arms of the A are what are called the "lofts," the working areas arrayed on the east- and west-facing sides of the atriums. The whole thing stands on a three-storey "podium" at ground level above the basement and one-level carpark.
The shape means that the building shows a different facade in every direction -- and at different times of the day.
How's that? Well, consider that what really sets the building apart are its glass walls, not just clear glass, but perfectly clear glass. It is made perfectly clear by removing the iron that tints conventional glass green. It was imported from Europe and can be found nowhere else in Winnipeg.
The glass is so clear, in fact, that it is all but invisible. Visitors new to the building (me, for example) have been known to give themselves a bit of a start by bumping into glass walls.
The clarity of the glass, however, is not about what you might or might not see in it, but rather to allow maximum penetration of light and radiant heat.
When you are talking about glass walls that rise some 90 metres, that's a lot of light and heat, often too much. And so the exterior of the building is actually two walls of glass, an inner and outer wall separated by one metre of open space. In that space and behind every sheet of exterior glass are high-tech venetian blinds. But nothing like the ones found in homes. The slats of each of these blinds can be opened or closed independently by mechanisms controlled by computers that measure the intensity of the sun, its changing daily alignment and seasonal inclination.
The computers also compare the solar information with weather information collected at electronic weather stations at the top and bottom of the building and adjust the slats to allow more or less light and solar heat into the building.
That is why the building might look transparent in the morning but appear "blinded" white in the afternoon.
The white slats are constantly fluttering open and closed. One second you can see outside unobstructed, the next it is like looking through a soft pastel veil. Flutter, flutter, flutter.
Sometimes the slats are closed to block 90 per cent of the light; sometimes they tilt up to reflect it onto the ceilings to brighten the lofts.
The space between the glass walls allows for maintenance and window washing. But it also allows for opening windows to let fresh air directly into the lofts, a rarity in modern office towers. When windows are opened, the computers notice and adjust all the other factors.
Recall that the ceilings are 11 feet high. That means the windows are, too. The height allows for a maximum penetration of light into workspaces. So much light is allowed into the building in this way that its lighting system is on less than 25 per cent of the time, and at that it is usually at low radiance.
Artificial light is supplied by T-5 fluorescent tubes, each skinnier than a cigarette but many times brighter than standard fluorescent tubes. Sensors monitor light levels and increase or diminish artificial light as needed. The transition between the level of natural light and artificial light is so gentle as to go unnoticed.
At night, motion sensors control lighting. If there is no one moving in the office tower, it goes dark, and its breathing slows while it sleeps."

I've just finished up several months of research digging into the best practices of how leading organizations aspire to implement outside-in, customer-focused, cross-functional processes that transform the organization and set it on the path toward continuous improvement. I found that these companies are moving from isolated business process management (BPM) and/or front-office customer relationship management (CRM) projects toward broader transformation initiatives across the organization. At the core of this trend is a desire by these organizations, especially in services industries, to domesticate their "untamed" or "invisible" processes that touch customers.
My report on the best practices for process-centric CRM will be published soon. A key finding is the growing convergence of data-centric CRM, BPM, and dynamic case management (DCM) solutions. The right mix of these solutions, of course, depends on the use cases you are designing for. For example:

QUOTE=WLC;852532] How do treatment-free beekeepers demonstrate disease resistance?
It's a fair question.[/QUOTE]
Its a question that signals to me insufficient understanding of husbandry to warrent offering advice!
Husbandrymen monitor their lifestock constantly for signs of disease, and select and propagate accordingly. When symptoms of disease appear resistance is lower, when they disappear it can be assumed to be higher. However: as I've said (and someone has confirmed with references) varroa is the main target - as the vector of diseases. There are a number of ways of evaluating for the various recognised types of varroa resistance, and again, monitoring or assaying one way or another supplies clear indications of the type and degree of resistance.
Or you can simply go with size and productivity. Without treatments only those that build, fetch and store the best are those with the sorts of qualities - including suitable resistance - that you want.
Hives that thrive best are standing demonstrations of broad resistance to those diseases present in the environment. Of course a new disease might come along and knock them down - in which case they will only be thriving because such diseases are absent. The only way to demonstrate resistance to a specific disease would be deliberate exposure.

I've already read through the paper from the Honeybee Genome Consortium.
I've also read Gillespie's paper on rDNA, and more.
Unfortunately, key players involved in Honeybee Genome project also involved themselves with Beeologics' attempt to feed jumping genes to Honeybees.
For example, Gene Robinson, who was on Beeologics' advisory board, went on to work for Monsanto. He was also a key player in sequencing the Honeybee Genome.
There were other scientists (and beekeepers) who entangled themselves in a web of 'conflict of interest' as well. I've also identified examples of the delberate suppression of important findings/information/technology.
My own conclusion is that the entire Honeybee Genome needs to be re-sequenced independently, and they need to pay special attention to transposable elements.
You can't serve two masters, Science and Monsanto, at the same time.
All that being said, I did use Gillespie's results to target the R2 site in Honeybees.
PS-you split into a challenge to raise new queens.
What sort of equipment did you use to do that?Originally Posted by WLC
Mark Berninghausen
Brain: WLC's (slightly used).
Literature research: Google Scholar.
Primers: (my design) from IDT.
iTaq: Biorad.
Thermal cycler: Biorad.
Gel electrophoresis: Biorad.
Sequencing: Genewiz.
Sequence editing: Muscle/Jailview.
etc., etc...
You don't need to go 'molecular' to take advantage of what Honeybees do naturally.
What infuriates me is that those who made the initial discoveries could have informed beekeepers about how they could take advantage of it rather than 'clamming up' and trying to market it.
I think that you may be curious about beekeepers doing something similar themselves.
As a proponent of 'democratic science', I'd say it's possible.
Beekeepers have always been 'self sufficient' anyhow.
What infuriates me is someone who is a proponent of "democratic science" being so cryptic and oddly evasive. I've respectfully asked a number of questions about how exactly a beekeeper can utilize the supposed benefits that you are referring to. I've sent pm's. But so far, all we have are breadcrumbs that leave us basically where we already are - we breed from the best of the stock we have. The only difference is that you seem to be suggesting that to make splits of stock which is under pressure is a good thing. To me that's pretty much unavoidable.
Beyond that - no details. 9 pages of scratching, a bunch of web searching to supplement your 'tidbits', as you seem bent on making what information you do share as difficult to understand as possible, and in the end I've got "you split into a challenge to raise a new queen".
Do you know anything about beekeeping? If you do, then maybe you could talk in beekeeping terms. Then maybe you wouldn't feel like you're speaking a language that no one can hope to understand - and you can quit speaking that language and speak in the one we're all familiar with. But maybe you don't speak that language. I have never heard anyone talk about "splitting into" anything. I can split and introduce a queen; I can split and let the bees raise a queen.
As I've said repeatedly. I am happy to have you at the table here, and I'm just about as open and interested as anyone. But I'm beginning to feel toyed with, and that's annoying.
Share or don't share. But don't go on suggesting you've got information of pivotal importance but refuse to break it down in such a way as to make it truly useful to the people your speaking to.
That's just weird.

Beekeepers normally split from their best and healthiest hives.
That's basic selective breeding.
Once beekeepers understand that there's another mechanism at play that can allow them to 'instantly evolve' their own resistance genes from their own 'sick' bees, it creates a new paradigm.
More importantly, 'transgenesis resistance' is validated proof that treatment free beekeeping can produce resistant stock.
Hygienic behavior is the only other solid evidence for treatment-free resistance that I'm aware of.
I'm not convinved that the swedes were able to show anything beyond attenuated pests/pathogens in bottlenecked bees.
PS-watch the personal stuff folks.
"Beekeepers normally split from their best and healthiest hives. That's basic selective breeding."
'Don't do that, split from 'pressured' hives instead.' ('Pressured' here means 'sick')
So you're asking us to abandon the deeply empirically tested and deeply theoretically supported method we know, and ... just make splits from anything instead. And somehow, magically, our bees will gain resistance.
Have I got that right?
It seems we must also understand; the mechanism by which that happens is too complicated to explain.
Will you do us all a favour and just supply straight and fulsome answers to these exact and straightforward questions?
If you can do that perhaps you'll gain respect for your theories. Without that you almost certainly won't, and people will continue to express exasperation one way or another. Participate in a discussion properly and people won't be short. Otherwise you're in the way, and people will let you know how they feel about that.
"I'm not convinved that the swedes were able to show anything beyond attenuated pests/pathogens in bottlenecked bees."
I've learned in several years of this discussion that some folks won't be convinced that mite resistant bees are a possibility no matter what evidence is put in front of them. And they won't tire either of telling everyone about it. I'd hoped the non-treatment forum would allow us to discuss these things without the constant interruptions and distractions of nay-sayers. Maybe we could have a special nay-sayers forum?
The race isn't always to the swift, nor the fight to the strong, but that's the way to bet
JB is fine.
You have elaborated needlessly for the most part. I have a well-founded understanding of fundamental evolutionary principal and animal husbandry. I can respond point by point to your post, but that will get tedious quickly. Your points are well taken and spot on. They work well in the lab, or petri dish or in completely controlled populations. Our bees are none of the above. Your bees and my bees will mate with feral and transient populations that we have no husbandry control over whatsoever. You can propogate horses that are virus resistant within your own stable and insure that you do not breed from non-resistant stock. You do not have to allow your non-resistant horses to die, you just don't breed from them. Eventually your horses will be in demand (assuming you have not breed out other disirable traits) because of the resistance. But that is a confined and isolated population. Bees are none of the above.
We agree on much but disagree on a few important points. Really only disagree on only one important and basic point. That revolves around your words of prevent , never and stop. Once again you read hinder as prevent and I read it as impede. Once again you ignore the time part. Ill also quote from the article (I usually dont for copyright issues) From the article:
The coevolutionary process required for establishing a coexisting relationship between this parasite and its new host is lacking, both in time and in selective pressures because the selective disadvantage of being virulent is removed by apicultural practices aiming to control this damaging new mite pest.
It appears that you disagree with the time element as much as I disagree with the selective pressure is removed aspect. Selective pressure is impeded, not removed and there is a difference, removal dictates 100% success of treatments which is not the case.
You also are ignoring the real world application as it applies to the bee population. Husbandry works very well indeed when you control all breeding. It works well in a domesticated stock as you can select and choose what is allowed to reproduce. That is just not the case in populations with wild/feral subpopulations that cross breed with your selections. It is even more difficult when there are large mobile populations of managed livestock that are allowed to free range and mate with your selections. Also history has shown husbandry is capable of making the wrong selections and breeding out a characteristic that was later determined to be important and desirable.
It is quite a large presumption to state that human interaction in a non-domesticated species will stop that species evolution. It just wont happen. Evolution will march right on with or without human muddling. And it will likely march to a tune of its choosing not ours.
Your stance, if accurate will doom any of your results to fail as soon as exposed to the treated populations. By your stance, the superior genetics you are breeding to, will fail. So where does that superiority go and what does it achieve? How does that flow into fundamental evolution?
Sorry, but you are wrong. Superior genetics will win out, treatments or not. When an inferior genetic line is allowed to reproduce it produces inferior genetics. AGREED? When an inferior line is allowed to cross breed with superior genetics, the superior genetics have a better chance at survival with or without treatments/intervention. The only caveat is when the superior genetics are purposefully killed or prevented from reproduction and that is not the case in this instance.
But everything above aside, I am going to ask a series of questions, I will provide my answers and you (or anyone else) can provide your/their answers, and then maybe a more focused conversation can follow. I am sure you will get a feel of where I am headed from the questions.
What is the currently accepted average time from introduction of mites to colony collapse if untreated and nonresistant?
JB: 3 years
Are treatments 100% effective at removal of varroa?
JB: No
Do 100% of the treated non-resistant hives survive?
JB: No
Which has the better chance of survival, a treated resistant colony or a treated nonresistant colony?
JB: Resistant colony.
Which has the better chance of survival, a non-treated resistant colony or a non-treated nonresistant colony?
JB: Resistant colony.
Which has the better chance of reproduction whether treatments are present or not, Superior or inferior genetics?
JB: Superior genetics.
Are there less tracheal mite treatments applied in US apiaries today than 5 years ago?
JB: yes, tracheal mite treatments are almost never applied.
Are there less Varroa treatments applied in US apiaries today than 5 years ago?
JB:yes; less people treat and treat less often than 5 years ago.
Are feral populations rebounding at all?
JB: Yes, the feral populations are slowly returning.
It's not a new mechanism for producing resistance in treatment-free beekeeping.
Your bees have been doing this all along. However, they've done this, on their own, very slowly.
If you want to speed things up, make sure that there's a pest/pathogen present (the source of the resistance 'gene').
Then you can make new queens [so that non-LTR, retrotransposon (the 'resistance gene')bearing RNPs (the package), can translocate from nurse cells to oocytes (the germ-line mechanism)].
Finally, after a few months, you can select from your resulting/surviving nucs for resistance.
Entomologists have studied this field for decades.
It's only a mystery to those who use terms like 'evolution' and 'natural selection' as if they understood their meaning.
Mike: The only solution to people who won't cooperate is to stop feeding them. He's not providing you with what you ask, so cut him loose.
JB: I mostly agree with your answers except the last one. In my experience, feral bees have been at normal population for a number of years now. I know of a number of feral hives in my area (as well as where I used to live in Oregon) and I regularly catch feral swarms as well as ones which seem to come from kept hives. If the feral population rebounds as quickly as I've seen the kept population, the ferals have been fine for a decade.
As far as how varroa is treated, I believe you, but I don't have the numbers. I would like to see them. I hope its true.
"Mike: The only solution to people who won't cooperate is to stop feeding them. He's not providing you with what you ask, so cut him loose.'
I answered his question. [Edit]
You never did explain how you know that your treatment-free bees are disease resistant.
Perhaps you're the ones doing the trolling and refusing to answer questions?

A little due diligence is in order.
How about getting the apiarist/bee inspector to come by and give an unbiased assessment?
A treatment-free beekeeper might cringe at the thought of an experienced, no-nonsense, inspector rating their hives.
But, frankly, it's like going to the doctor's. We all have to do it sometime.
Due diligence? What do you mean?
I would be uneasy about an Apiary Inspector rating my hives, that's my job.
Mark Berninghausen
This is turning ugly and I'm not responding to it. Get back on topic. Address the paper, otherwise start a new thread if you want to talk about something else.
I think that I'm addressing the conclusion of the paper rather directly.
We need to address how resistance evolves.
I am very interested in how resistance evolves. So I'll ask more questions in an effort to understand.
WLC says:
" Then you can make new queens [so that non-LTR, retrotransposon (the 'resistance gene')bearing RNPs (the package), can translocate from nurse cells to oocytes (the germ-line mechanism)]."
So I have to raise my own queens from the struggling stock. Is the word "nurse" in this sentence referring to nurse bees? If so, how does the resistance gene translocate from the nurse cells?
I want to run a treatment free operation, and am presently forulating my approach to next season. I am very much interested in whatever the group might offer to help me figure our my plan for the coming season.

Phil Mickelson will be back to take aim at Mark O'Meara's record five AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am titles. Whether Tiger Woods is returning remains unknown.
Mickelson is one of many big names who have recently committed to play in the AT&T Pro-Am, Feb. 4-10 at Pebble Beach Golf Links, Spyglass Hill and the Shore Course at Monterey Peninsula Country Club. Others who have committed include: 2012 FedEx Cup winner Brandt Snedeker, Nick Watney, Hunter Mahan, 2012 runner-up Charlie Wi and previous back-to-back AT&T Pro-Am winner (2009, 2010) Dustin Johnson, who won the Hyundai Tournament of Champions on Monday.
"It's early, but it's a great start to the pro field," said Steve John, CEO of the Monterey Peninsula Foundation, which runs the AT&T Pro-Am.
As of Tuesday, the only event that Woods has already committed to is the Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship, Jan.17-20 in the Middle East. Last year, Woods played in that event and made his PGA Tour debut at Pebble Beach. But that was last year.
John said he's working "diligently" on getting Woods to return.
"We'd love him to be here," John said.
Last year, Wi entered Sunday's final round holding a three-shot lead over Ken Duke, with Woods four back and Mickelson six behind. While all of the attention was already on the Woods-Mickelson pairing, Wi made it even more intriguing by four-putting his opening hole.
In the end, Mickelson shot 64 to beat Wi by two. Woods shot 75, thanks in part to playing Pebble's Cliffs of Dooms stretch (holes 7-10) at 3-over.
Along with getting his fourth title, Mickelson matched Johnny Miller as the only players to win the tournament in three decades. Miller won in 1974, 1987 and 1994, while Mickelson's wins were in 1998, 2005, 2007 and last year.
Points and Murray: It appears D.A. Points and Bill Murray will be together again at this year's Pro-Am. Both have committed, and Points said at November's Callaway Pebble Beach Invitational that he plans on playing with Murray.
"I assume I'll be his partner until he tells me different. If he wanted someone else, I think he'd let me know," Points said.
In 2011, the pair made it a clean sweep, with Points winning the title and he and Murray winning the Pro-Am. Both hail from Illinois.
Daly Returns: Who knows what kind of pants he'll wear, but John Daly has also committed. He'll make his first Pro-Am appearance since 2011, when he missed the cut. Last season, Daly finished T-5 at the Reno-Tahoe Open, his best finish on the tour since he finished runner-up to Woods in a playoff at the 2005 World Golf Championships-Cadillac Championship.
At the Reno-Tahoe Open, he briefly held the lead after an eagle at the par-5 13th in the third round but went on to card three consecutive bogeys.
Celeb watch: S.F. Giants pitcher Matt Cain is one of the most recent celebrities to join the Pro-Am field. Other recent celebrity additions include Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, country music star Clay Walker and former world No. 1 tennis star Andy Roddick. Last year, Romo's pro partner was Woods. In his two other appearances, Romo played with Daly.
Tickets for the AT&T Pro-Am are available at www.attpbgolf.com, or 800-541-9091.
Jerry Stewart can be reached at 384-7916 or at firstname.lastname@example.com.


text: In my opinion, if it has a trigger lock and is inside a locked gun case, which is then inside a trunk....you more than likely would not be able to get to it fast enough if you needed it. Eitherway, I would have loaded magazines in that same case if not in the gun. Once you have your CCW, this shouldn't be an issue as the gun should be on you anyways

Reviews of this property
It was impossible to contact the owner; she never answered our emails or phone calls. Finally got an email (After wimdu got involved) telling us that the key was in secure box by the door with a code for the box: Hellllo!!! the box was behind a locked screen door , impossible to get it. It took 1 1/2 hrs to sort this out on arrival after a long day in the air. A maintenance man finally open the door for us; we found him in a garage in the backyard. The place was spacious but property was questionnable; there was dust everywhere and it was obvious that the cleaning was done at a minimum.
Location of the apartment is fine, decor accordance picture, only hinges and locks, very bad. Only glass which permeates all the outside noise. Maintenance is not very good, loose board, light in motion did not, dishwasher does not work properly. Had a lot of noise from neighbors, their apartment was probably wooden floors. Host not meet all controlled via mail or phone. Parking in the street may only little space, sometimes only two blocks away parking.
Ligging van het apartement is prima, inrichting conform foto, alleen hang en sluitwerk erg slecht. Enkel glas waardoor al het geluid van buiten doordringt. Onderhoud niet heel goed, losse plank, licht in gang deed het niet, vaatwasser werkt niet goed. Veel geluidsoverlast gehad van buren, hun appartement was waarschijnlijk ook voorzien van houten vloeren. Host niet ontmoet alles via mail of telefoon geregeld. Parkeren in de straat mogelijk alleen weinig ruimte, soms 2 straten verder pas parkeerplaats.
The good: Spacious, bright, very well located (with car), nice area. Parking in the street but often in the surrounding streets. Well equipped, lots of storage. The worst: Clim. noisy, not very clean (stained sheets and traces of previous tenants in the bathtub ...). Single glazed so outside noise. AC. is present in the room and in one of two rooms. The other room has fans.
Le bien : Appartement spacieux, clair, très bien situé (avec voiture), quartier très agréable. Parking dans la rue mais souvent dans les rues voisines. Bien équipé, beaucoup de rangements.
Le moins bien : Clim. bruyante, pas très propre (draps tachés et traces des précédents locataires dans la baignoire...). Simple vitrage donc bruits extérieurs. La clim. est présente dans le séjour et dans l'une des 2 chambre. L'autre chambre a des ventilateurs.
Reviews for this host's other properties
Big and clean apartment (1st floor of a house), located in a pleasant residential area, in a quite central location to visit LA. The neighborhood is also convenient with the farmers' market, the Grove and many stores.
Perfect for 4 people, even 6 would be possible.
The House is located in a quiet and safe neighborhood and it is strategically situated next to Melrose Avenue with walking distanse to Hollywood Walk of Fame and Beverly Hills. But you need a car in L.A to get around anyway. The house is one of two apartments in a large house and you can hear your neigbours very well, especially if they are a having a party. The house is quite old and needs renovation, f.ex. is the heating system in the living room not reparable - no problem during most of the year, but quite cold during winter time, so the owner had to bring extra owens. The house has limited power capacity, so you have to be careful when you put all electricity on. The house is large an can easily host a family with 6+ and the owner brings extra beds as needed. For shorter stays and also during summer period, the house is probably great to rent.
It was a great experience and a great stay at your place.
I will come again.
spacious and very clean apartment.
Apartment well located in a nice residential area. We will return with pleasure.
appartement spacieux et très propre.
Appartement bien situé dans un joli quartier résidentiel. Nous y retournerons avec plaisir.
Apartment cute and great location, no kitchen but microwave fridge coffee machine and toaster solve every problem, complete and functional in every respect, we had a small problem and solving it propritaria we responded immediately to ' instant .... for sure if I return the risceglierei again !!!
Appartamento carinissimo e posizione straordinaria, non c'è la cucina ma il microonde il frigo la macchina del caffè e il tostapane risolvono ogni problema , completo e funzionale sotto ogni aspetto, abbiamo avuto un piccolissimo problema e la propritaria ci ha risposto immediatamente risolvendolo all'istante....di sicuro se dovessi tornare lo risceglierei di nuovo!!!

More arguments at Casa López start with this seemingly innocent question than I would like to admit. Here is a transcript of what happened this past weekend when Carlos uttered those 7 little words.
Carlos: Do you want to rent a movie?
Tracy: Yeah, sure.
{We both sit down in front of the computer to see what's new in RedBox.}
Tracy: How about Saving Private Perez?
Carlos: That looks stupid.
Tracy: It's supposed to be stupid, that's why it's funny.
Carlos: No, pick something else.
Tracy: How about this?
Carlos: What's that?
Tracy: Snow Flower and the Secret Fan.
Carlos: What's it about?
Tracy: Let's watch the trailer.
Carlos: No! Just read the description, just tell me.
Tracy: Why would I just read the description when there's a trailer right here and you can see with your own eyes? {clicks play}
Carlos: {sighs}
{trailer ends}
Carlos: I still don't get it. What's it about?
Tracy: It's about women in China who have a special friendship. The cinematography is so beautiful, don't you think?
Carlos: Um, yeah, but it looks depressing. Can we get something with a little more action?
Tracy: Fine… How about this?
Carlos: Which one?
Tracy: A Better Life.
Carlos: What's it about?
Tracy: A father and son who immigrate to the United States and the difficulties they face. There's probably a little action in it, I'd imagine.
Carlos: I lived that, I don't need to watch it.
Tracy: Carlos, come on. This looks like a good father, son story. Look. {clicks play}
Tracy: {starts crying}
Carlos: You're crying! I'm not renting this! You're crying already! This is just the trailer! This movie is depressing!
Tracy: Why are you yelling at me?!
Carlos: Because you're crying and you don't want to rent anything good!
Tracy: Fine, you pick but I don't want to watch anything with aliens or explosions or war, or the end of the world, or exploding aliens ending the world, or—
Carlos: How about Fast Five?
Tracy: Or car racing! You've seen that three times already!
Carlos: Well I like that one!
Tracy: Come on! Pick something we haven't seen!
Carlos: Xmen.
Tracy: Ew, no.
Carlos: Captain America?
Tracy: Dude, we saw that when we were in El Salvador.
Carlos: But we saw it in Spanish.
Tracy: It's the same movie! … What's with you and super heroes anyway? No super hero movies either.
Carlos: You're being so picky!
Tracy: You're the one whose being picky! There are a bunch of movies I'd love to watch and you won't watch them. It's not like I'm asking to watch Jane Eyre or some other girly movie. The worst part is I told Redbox they should have more documentaries and foreign films and now you never want to watch them with me so they'll probably stop stocking them.
Carlos: {laughing} They put them in there just for you?
Tracy: I told them to! I tweeted them!
Carlos: {sighs}
Tracy: So what are we renting? Are we renting anything? … We're going to end up renting something like Dolphin Tale.
Carlos: I'd watch that.
Tracy: Seriously, Carlos?… The dolphin needs a tail so Morgan Freeman and a little boy help the dolphin get a tail, the end. I'm not watching that.
Carlos: So, are we not renting anything?
Tracy: I guess not… maybe they'll have something we can agree on next week.

Today I've moved a step closer to believeing that Jerry Jones has NFL Officials in his pocket!
That was a catch and a fumble .....how in the fk can Dierdorph say it wasnt close to a catch and the officials rule it NOT A CATCH when he caught it.... had the ball under control and took two full steps before it was jarred loose??" In what alternate universe is that NOT the definition of a caught ball???????
Then they rule Miles Austin's shoestring grab WAS a catch when replay showed he had less control of the ball to the ground than the play that was ruled a no catch.
That should have been a fumble recovery for the Browns......period...and the g'damned Cowgirls luck out again!

Pizza and Pasta Tools
At Williams-Sonoma, we offer a wide range of pizza and pasta tools to satisfy all Italian food aficionados. Freshly made pizza and pasta are simply unrivaled in flavor, but they require specific tools. For homemade pasta, take a look at our offering of pasta machines. The machines can make a variety of pasta types, ranging from angel hair to lasagna. The process is made simple with a built-in scale, which prompts you to add specific amounts of flour, water and eggs to make great dough. This provides a foolproof and superior result that only takes a few minutes. For chefs that prefer a hand-crank version, take a look at our traditional pasta machines. These are not automated, but require you to turn the handle to achieve your pasta of choice. These come with several attachments, which can make everything from ravioli to crimped pastas. Making pasta at home has many perks, including being able to enjoy pasta with limited ingredients and no preservatives. The pasta can also be kept and packaged for use later. Simply use a pasta dryer to get rid of the moisture, and then package it in containers for use later on.
The ever-popular pasta dish, ravioli, requires its own set of tools. If you are pressed for time or would like a simple solution, grab a ravioli mold. The mold transforms ravioli making, which is typically a time-consuming process, into a very simple job. Just lay down pasta dough onto the mold, add fillings and place a second layer of dough on top. Use the included rolling pin to press the ravioli into the mold. This can make a dozen pieces at once, saving time. Plus, there is little pasta that is wasted because each ravioli is precisely made. If traditional methods are more appealing, grab a ravioli stamp and make individual bites by hand. Choose from a round or square shape according to your personal preferences. Ravioli is easily customized as well with a range of ingredients. Create a flavorful vegetarian option by stuffing it with cheese and mushrooms, or create a meat-laden ravioli with ground beef and basil for a savory dish. Another type of pasta that requires a specific tool is gnocchi. Use our gnocchi roller to produce perfectly scored pieces. The tool makes it easy to whip up a whole bowl of gnocchi without straining your hands or fingers.
If pizza is on the menu, grab some of our pizza tools to make the cooking and serving much simpler. We have a range of pizza cutters to meet anyone's needs. Use a traditional circular pizza wheel for precise cuts of the pie. For a commercial-grade tool, take a look at our epicurean pizza cutters. These are great for slicing hard-to-cut pizzas, such as deep-dish and thin pies. Another option is a pair of pizza scissors. Although it may seem counterintuitive to use scissors on pizza, these work well for easily cutting pies without the worry of the pie slipping on the tray.
For cooking pizzas, remember to grab a quality pizza stone. These range in material and in size, but essentially offer a cooking surface that can be easily used in a regular stove. Because the stones can reach extremely high temperatures, they can be used over an open flame on a barbecue or on a grill. The nonstick surfaces yield delicious, crispy crusts. We also have pizza stones for tabletop convection ovens, as well as specific stones for extra crispy crusts. Choose a stone depending on your needs, and enjoy fresh pizza directly from the oven.
To simplify the pizza-making process, take a look at our pizza makers. The small, tabletop machines offer a convenient option with great results. These can also reach temperatures as high as 660 degrees Fahrenheit, which cannot be done in a traditional oven. The high heat cooks the pizza evenly and to an ideal, crispy crunch. Choose from a range of crusts, and enjoy a perfectly cooked pizza without any of the hassle.

I agree with all! When I was growing up we new "the look." Now days our youth and young adults language is a shame!... My husband and I have been discussing this alot lately. I will tell you our 2 daughters go not talk ugly, but our son who will be 26 in Oct. does at times. My husband always reminds him "We don't talk like that in this house."
Sad but true! Don't know why he is like this. We love him, but not his behavior!

Medical Oncologist
Chief, Gastrointestinal Oncology Service; Head, Colorectal Oncology Section
About Me
I have been on the faculty of Memorial Sloan Kettering since 1989, and over the years I have treated thousands of people with common as well as rare gastrointestinal cancers. I have particular expertise in managing cancers of the colon and rectum, as well as rare tumors of the digestive tract such as carcinoid and pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, and other digestive tract cancers such as liver, pancreas, stomach, and esophagus cancers. I also treat other neuroendocrine tumors such as adrenal cancers and pheochromocytomas.
Much of my career has also been dedicated to developing new drug therapies and treatment strategies for colorectal cancer, and I have tapped the vast resources of Memorial Sloan Kettering — from various clinical departments to the Human Oncology and Pathogenesis Program, the Sloan Kettering Institute, and The Rockefeller University — to create an integrated translational research program. As Chief of the Gastrointestinal Medical Oncology Service, I look forward to expanding this program even more in the years to come. I see enormous potential in using recent advances in the molecular analysis of tumors from individual patients to personalize and improve cancer treatment.
In addition to my role as Service Chief, I am Chair of the hospital's Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee and co-leader of the Colorectal Disease Management Team. I am also a Professor of Medicine at Weill Cornell Medical College.
Nationally, I serve on the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Rectal and Anal Cancer Task Force and am co-leader of the Alliance NCI Cooperative Research Group efforts in colon and rectal cancers. I also serve on three National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines committees: colorectal cancers, neuroendocrine cancers, and unknown primary cancers.
Since 1990 I have authored or co-authored more than 150 peer-reviewed journal articles on the development of new treatments for colorectal and other gastrointestinal cancers. I have also written numerous books, book chapters, monographs, and reviews on current and future treatment strategies for these diseases.
I am honored to have received various teaching and research awards over the years, as well as recognition for my work from such organizations as the American Cancer Society (Career Development Award) and Gilda's Club (Advancement of Cancer Medicine Award).

Don't know why...
nobody suggested looking at the drvr side of the block, just ahead of the motor mount, it'll be cast into the block what size it was in stock form(unless it's and early block). Easiest way I can think of to determine size.
thanks bob, it's a 70 455 h o out of a grand prix. it's out and needs a build. i'm going to sell it.
Too bad you're not closer I might be interested. You shouldn't have too hard of a time getting rid of it though. There aren't an abundance of them for sale. It's not like a small block chevy.
another member is asking for a viewing. meanwhile i've found a built but never run 76 455 for a reasonable price. i know that's a dog of an engine but it's supposed to have a mild cam and i'll mover the torquer intake and the holley over to it. it may be all i'm looking for for now. this car is more for show than go for now. i may start building a 400 after i've had time to do a little studying on the best way to do it and eventually make a screamer out of it.
455 H.O. Pontiac
I have been helping a good friend of mine with his 1978 TA that was retro fit with a 1972 455 H.O. Recently, we came across a set of Super Duty heads and, since they are so rare, I recommended he scoop them up immediately. Reading this post I became confused because the T2 is what is on this engine now and the shaker lines up perfectly. It doesn't appear to have any hood modification and has a Quadrojet carb that was built by a master. It out performs most Holley set ups I have put together. This car is amazing. It has the TH350 and I am unsure of the rear gears but it seems to jump to 100 mph with the slightest application of the go pedal and cruises there below 3500 rpm. I have one mile timed this car at over 160 mph without red lining it. Can't wait to tear it down when we transform it into a Super Duty and see what was really done inside. (Sorry slightly off topic but best thread on 455 I have found)
Any 455 wakes up with a cam and intake swap. The right head on it makes it even better. There is no dog when it comes to 455s, only not enough airflow being allowed through it. The bottom end is the same on all of them except for the SD.
A pair of SD heads will make it run pretty hard despite the 8:1 compression they had. Same with 71-72 HO heads. Its all in the heads, the bottom end is essentially the same.
Frankenstein? Nah, that's damn near a Concours compared to a '70 TA Formula a former partner and I built in the early '80's.
At the time, we owned an amalgam of shops/businesses under a couple of roofs. There was a auto repair shop, a body and paint shop, an industrial sand blasting and paint biz, a glass shop, and a parts store. We had employees doing all the real work, so my partner & I could do antique restorations and build street rods & other toys.
Anyway, we had bought a 70 Formula for $100 -motor and trans because the front group had been blown off in a wreck and the OEm rubber-baby-buggy bumper front group was way expensive.
One night while getting inspirational, we got to wondering if a Camaro front clip would fit. Off to yard in the morning, and we cam back with a $20 hood with carb fire damage, a full L fender, and two free R fenders: one was crunched in the front and one was crunched in the rear, (that's why God created the wire welder, isn't?)
The Formula came with the 'shaker' hood scoop, so that took care of the carb fire damage.
The fenders didn't fit perfectly, but the curve was right. At the bottom of the fender behind the wheel, the Camaro notched in. A bit of welding and the Formula had a new front end. We bought a Z-28 air dam to finish it off, and came up with some older alum slotted mags in good shape.
Now, we needed a motor. Not long after, a thumping, loping Chev 4x4 pulled in. It was loud, it snarled, and popped. Out came a nearly 60 year old guy climbing down from the cab, cussing the entire time.
Turns out his kid had the car fever, but didn't have a car, so he did the next best thing, put a a bunch of money into a BB Chev and put it in his dad's work truck.
Needless to say, Dad was not impressed. He wanted to know if we could put a stock SBC back in it. Turns out he didn't have much money, so we made him a deal he loved, we found a low mileage stocker at the yard, and traded him straight across for the BBC. We even installed it for free.
The BBC went in the Formula 28/ZTA/Frankenstein with a Frankenstein TH400 I built. (I did some automatic rebuilding back then - I would keep all the good leftover parts and build Frankensteins. We'd install & warranty then for $150 to somebody who was broke and needed a new trans.)
So, Frank went into makeup, and came out with black lacquer.
We took it to a show in Portland, got a good location so the car was sideways to the lookers, and laughed our butts off at the neck breaking dbl-takes all weekend.
On Sunday night as we were trailering it, a guy walked up and offered us $5000 for it. Then we really laughed, all the way to the bank. Never saw it again, and never got any pictures of it.
It was weird looking, though.
T/A and Formula are separate models. Formula did not have a "shaker", only T/A (unless you include that abomination that was on "Chips" so long ago...).
BBC is a good engine, no doubt. In a Firebird, though, it will hurt the "balance" of the car drastically (200 additional pounds "up front"). The 455 is more capable for a "driver" in the heavy street car. 440 Pontiac would the HOT lick, but that's another story...
Hey Jim,
That's an interesting point about the shaker hood. I didn't know only T/A's had them. It's been a long time, but I thought the Formula had larger fender flares, is that not true?
I do know it was factory orange, but I suppose a T/A could have been ordered in orange.
The shaker hood was either factory, or someone did an exceptionally good job cutting the hood, which, is highly unlikely.
It must have been a T/A. The next time I talk to my ex-partner, I'll ask him if he remembers.
Your comment about the BBC reminded me of something I had completely forgotten about. When the motor was put in, it smashed the front end down a bit too much. It just wouldn't have worked.
One of the advantages of owning a parts store, (back in the dark ages before the Internet), was access to the parts catalogs, and the chance to spend time with them looking for alternatives.
We got some new springs from TRW, if I remember correctly, with a higher spring rate, and put them in.
We put off new shocks until we had a chance to drive it, but we never really had a chance to drive it much.
At least through '73, "Formula" had no fender flares, either. Just the big scoops "out front" on the hood (I still have a '73 hood stashed in the shed). They were fiberglass hoods. The '70-'72 had the option of "Ram Air" where the scoops were open and sealed to the air cleaner. They claimed it made power, but the only real advantage I see is the introduction of ambient air instead of hot "under hood" air. Still, those scoops are in better position than the early Firebird "400" and GTO scoops. The "shaker" is the better one. The rear opening accesses the high-pressure area at the base of the windshield. I saw a couple "delivered" with the rear spoiler, so it must have been on the option list.
The springs would have been "big block" Camaro springs. We changed a few small block cars to big blocks, and had to get them. Same in Chevelles...

Software upgrade enables users to conduct "immersive asset performance management," another term for hypermodeling that produces interactive visuals.
Bentley Systems, Incorporated, the leading company dedicated to providing comprehensive software solutions for sustaining infrastructure, today announced the release of AssetWise APM V7.2. This enhanced version of Bentley's asset performance management (APM) software enables users to take advantage of immersive APM, a visual environment in which hypermodeling is used to spatially enable operations and maintenance for the interactive inspection of critical assets. AssetWise APM V7.2 users can also view infrastructure assets in the context of engineering information conveyed by Bentley's i-models, and can initiate actions directly from the 2D or 3D representations of the asset. Additionally, AssetWise APM V7.2 users now benefit from advancements in asset strategy development and integrity management.
Alan Kiraly, Bentley senior vice president, server products, said, "What differentiates Bentley's AssetWise APM V7.2 is the unique capability to interact with the virtual plant and connect asset health data to 2D and 3D models of the plant. Bentley users can walk an inspection prior to going to the asset and make better decisions faster."
Immersive Asset Performance Management
AssetWise APM V7.2's immersive approach to visual operations helps converge the engineer's mental model of the plant, network, or other asset with its performance and representation in IT systems. The hypermodels in this visual environment can directly link to asset condition indicators, enabling inspection indicator readings to be associated with the visual model. In addition, the ability to view assets via i-models (conveyors of architectural, engineering, construction, and operations deliverables) provides expanded engineering context in a variety of formats – from design files to specification sheets to corrosion loops, and more. Inspection photographs can also be included with assets, indicators, indicator readings, and checksheets. The visual workflow supports both greenfield and brownfield operations, bridging the gap between CAPEX and OPEX and enabling a sustainable business strategy for operational excellence and safety.
Advancements in Asset Strategy Development and Integrity Management
Also new in AssetWise APM V7.2 are analysis techniques used in Risk-based Inspections (RBI) and Reliability-centered Maintenance (RCM). Capabilities include demand scenario risk analysis based on the consequences of economic, health and safety, environmental, and company reputation effects; risk matrices support for failure mode criticality evaluation; and degradation rates updated from failure modes, analysis based on economic feasibility of maintenance strategies, and probability based on time between failures.
Bentley uniquely delivers a single platform to support both RCM and RBI asset strategy development methods, as well as a comprehensive inspection data management system. This drives an enterprise-wide approach to managing risk, increasing uptime, and ensuring process safety and predictable production at the lowest lifecycle cost.
With the unique capability of addressing reliability and integrity across the lifecycle on a single platform, Bentley users are able to push reliability-based processes and practices earlier into the design phase of the asset lifecycle. Bentley delivers an information management platform to ensure operational readiness and sustainable asset performance. AssetWise APM has tested and certified integrations to leading EAM systems, including SAP, IBM Maximo and Oracle eAM.
APM Supervisor Dashboard App for Windows 8.1
Bentley's APM Supervisor Dashboard app, which was originally released for Android-based devices, gives reliability and maintenance managers an at-a-glance, actionable, 24x7 view of asset health and key performance indicators (KPIs). Bentley's new APM Supervisor Dashboard app gives managers the added flexibility of responding to alarms and approving work from home or elsewhere offsite on Windows 8.1 devices.
Process Maturity Model Aligned with ISO 55000
New in Bentley's Reliability Business Improvement Assessment is the alignment of its APM Process Maturity Model directly to ISO 55000. This standard enables users to identify the qualitative and quantitative evidence of their existing capabilities, to assess the stage at which their organizations currently operate, and to know what is possible with a given business case and plan.

IMHO Coughlin can do this when he wants to, but only when he has exhausted all other options. Poor Andy Reid is suffering, but he seems to get more out of rookie, offensive skill players than anyone else, and a lot of other coaches seem to get more earlier from their top picks. TC sets up a self-fulfilling prophecy. He doesn't like rookie mistakes and he favors veteran players. If he communicates that thought, and he has and he does, rookie players, in fact no player, will respond well to reduced/diminished expectations. The other half of the story is, of course they won't get the opportunity to develop and consequently their development is ******ed.
Is this an anachronistic policy? In my opinion yes. Given the short life expectancy of an NFL career, you just can't have 20% of your team playing suicide squad or warming the bench. And given the injury casualty rate, and the frequency and severity of injuries in today's game, you need to have confidence that you can play your rookies in the second half of the season and win with them.
Admittedly this is a matter of degree and I think TC is a very good coach, but this appears to be an area of concern with Tom. Furthermore, given Reese's penchant for picking raw talent (aka "projects"), IMHO he hasn't exactly got the right coach for that strategy.
What are your thoughts?

Malente & Dex (featuring Spoek & Gnucci Banana) - Doo Doo Dance
It's only just past 9am here in Beastonia, and I already know exactly what song I will be doing some dutty whine and capoeira mash-up style dancing to all weekend long. Thanks to the talented tip o' the fingers of Berlin's Malente & Dex, there's going to be a bona fide sweat fest happening here for the next few days...and it starts right now.
Back in mid-April, the pair released their Habibi EP, which features the title track, and two more fun slices of wow wow wildness. In Nightclubs is a bouncy romp through middle eastern beats while Doo Doo Dance follows the same formula while enlisting the husband and wife guest vocalists, Spoek & Gnucci Banana, to deliver some fun party rocking vocals.
New video for the latter can be found below. And strike that statement about the "one song" I'll be listening to all weekend. Natch...it's the entire EP I'll have on repeat. Buy it here. along with two separate remix packages here and here.
As Doo Doo Dance suggests in the lyrics: "I talk with my body..." Super win.

I'm Raluca, a 30-something in Southern California. These are the musings and must-haves of a modern-day working mama. I am a writer and PR consultant by day, a mama and wife by night, and all things fashion, design and dessert in between. I blog to answer the question: "I don't know how she does it?" This is how she does it. And this is how she does it in style. Most of the time. Thank you for stopping by!
Because beyond all the GOOP, I believe there is a woman there who is doing her best. Who believes in being a good mother, a driven career woman, a supportive friend and an inspiring creative thinker -- unapologetically. And I believe that we should all find that someone who inspires us and entertains us and teaches us how to cook. Someone who reminds us that it's important to take care of ourselves. Someone who shares her best-kept secrets. And someone who helps us see beyond the day-to-day once in a while. Because the view can be pretty spectacular.

Two days ago I noticed a swarm crawling in to a hole in my house. Listening very carefully, I think I have found the bees under the floor in my daughters room. (I can actually hear them walking around). After talking to various people who said they couldn't help and that the easiest solution would be to exterminate them... I found one that suggested a trap out. I think I can do it. I have always liked the idea of keeping bees and this seems like an excellent start to the hobby... however, I have zero knowledge past what I have been googling over the past 24 hours. My question is what supplies will I absolutely need? I have read that I must have a eggs and a queen but I don't know where I can obtain those. Buying a box is easy enough, setting up the tunnel screen is a breeze... but after that I am lost. I just need suggestions and direction... I live in Bonham, Texas (Fannin County). I do not know any beekeepers in my remote area.
Thanks tons for any help you can give... I can't have the bees living in my home but I absolutely don't want them killed either.
