So I have been thinking about what I want to do in the spring. Here are my goals for hive count in the fall: three to four warre hives, six langs, and three to four nucs. At this point in the year I have two healthy langs and one warre. The langs are in eight frame equipment and with two deeps and one med. My warre had four boxes and I have two drawn boxes in the garage. I don't really have any extra Lang combs right now, but my tbhs have all sucked in the two years I have had them. They are both dead right now. I fully plan on cutting the comb off of the top bar and strapping them to empty Lang frames. This should give them a head start.
Part of my plan includes buying packages in the spring. I have enough cash saved up for four packages. I will put three packages into langs and the other in the two drawn warre boxes. So that brings me to five langs and two warres. At this point I need one full Lang, all of my nucs, and one or two warres.
So I will need to get the rest out of splits. Once my packages have fully filled out a deep I plan on starting to split and correct me if my timing is off. I plan on taking three brood combs out of one of my langs and placing it above an excluder in my other (both of these are my overwintered hives) Lang in order to populate it.
Question- Do I ensure that all bees are off the combs or just tap them so that flyers come off?
The next day remove brood combs and place in deep with a pollen/honey comb. I would also like to rear queens, but I suspect this split won't be strong enough. So my plan is to remove the queen from a package and place it in the new split.
Next question- How do you get attendants into the queen cage for intro?
Then graft with the queenless hive. Come back later to pinch off any unwanted queen cells.
Now I don't want to ruin the honey production of my overwintered hives. So I don't plan on really splitting them really hard, but I don't know what is a reasonable number. I don't know if I should just leave it at one split from these hives until after the main flow or split twice.
After the queen cells are ready to harvest I plan on splitting my warres until I get my goal. I will also try to make my nucs. I guess I will have to see how my packages and wintered gives look. Maybe I just take onw brood comb from each to make three nucs or some other variation.
That should get me close to my goal if all goes well. What does everybody think of that? Anything that could be done differently that would improve my plan?

Please can I remind people that we will be closing off the current online league season on
Monday 31st December 2012 at 12 noon
Please try to get your outstanding games in wherever possible before then.
If you want to play the previous week, go right ahead, you will find it far more stimulating than the endless TV repeats and far less fattening than a further helping of plum pudding.
Where matches have been started but not finished, if they haven't been played by then I propose to declare all outstanding games drawn. If the match hasn't been started yet I'll just cancel the match.
If anyone feels aggrieved by that, in that they have tried endlessly to arrange to play a game and the other player hasn't responded or repeatedly hasn't turned up, and feel they should be awarded the game as a win, please can the team captains involved try to reach agreement or agree to ask some independent player to decide what the outcome should be (I don't think it looks good if I decide these things all the time as I've played in the league myself!). Obviously I will help as far as I can.
I propose to start the new season promptly on 1st March 2013 so please could all the teams confirm that they will be playing in that season as soon as they can. Of course we would welcome new teams. Don't forget there is no rule that all members of particular teams should come from a particular club, but they must clearly make an agreement as to how the subscription should be divided.
In the meantime I hope everyone has a good Christmas and New Year.

Washington County, Tennessee man charged with burglary
WASHINGTON COUNTY, Tenn. - Update: Sullivan County authorities arrested Killion at 2:00 a.m. on Thursday morning.
Washington County, Tennessee authorities are looking for a man they say violated his probation.
Sheriff Ed Graybeal says 35-year-old Roy Joe Killion is 6'2" with brown hair and blue eyes.
According to the Sheriff's Department Killion was released on 16-years probation after he pled guilty to aggravated burglary, theft, robbery, reckless endangerment and more charges.
In July, Killion was charged with aggravated burglary and theft. Those new charges led to Killion violating his probation.
Anyone with information about Killion's whereabouts is asked to call Lt. Gregg with the Washington County Sheriff's Department 423-788-1414. Your information can remain anonymous.

Scientists have long believed that more than 13,000 years ago, people known as the Clovis were the first humans to arrive in North America. But the recent discovery of stone tools and human remains in Oregon's Paisley Caves suggests that the Clovis people were not alone. Scientists now believe that there was another group of humans on the continent around the same time.
Journey to Discovery
Dennis Jenkins is an archeologist at the University of Oregon. He and his team began excavating the Paisley Caves, in central Oregon, in 2002. In 2008, the team announced the discovery of ancient human remains. The remains were preserved, Jenkins told TFK, "because the caves are so dry." The archeologists used a technique called radiocarbon dating in order to determine the age of the fossils. They concluded that the deposits were as old as—and maybe even older than—the Clovis remains.
To be sure that this was a separate group of people from the Clovis, however, the archaeologists kept looking for more evidence. "The problem was that we didn't have the mini artifacts to go with [our findings]," says Jenkins. "People questioned whether or not our findings were real."
Between 2009 and 2011, the archeologists found what they were looking for: arrowheads that looked different from the Clovis points. While the Clovis points are big and have a distinct scar running up the middle of the blade, the tools found in the Oregon caves are small and narrow. Radiocarbon dating of the recently discovered tools revealed that they were more than 13,000 years old.
The Big Picture
Some scientists now believe there were at least two distinct groups of people who arrived in the Americas around 13,000 years ago. The differences seen in the stone tools of the two groups suggest that these two cultures developed separately from one another.
"We have more than a single cultural group on the landscape, and that is important because it helps us to open our eyes to the fact that we have missed things in the past," Jenkins says. "This is just one more piece of the puzzle of how people got to North and South America."

Bike Safety is more than helmets
Original post made by Occasional cyclist, Palo Verde, on Apr 14, 2012
Very few bikes have lights at night.
Many bike on the wrong side of the street.
Many bike two or more abreast with or without bike lanes.
Many bikers wear dark colored clothes which even in daylight makes them pretty invisible in the shadows.
Very few wear reflective vests (although many wear yellow lycra). These should be paramount to safety and possibly part of the helmet law.
Very few stop at stop signs and obey other vehicle road laws.
Many wear unsuitable footwear (sandals, flip flops and platform shoes are not suitable for bike riding).
Why are we not very safety conscious on bikes?

Another problem is bicyclists who insist on using roads that are popular with speeding cars, like Middlefield Road or Charleston Road. You know that cars speed on those roads and the cops don't care. Why trust your life to drivers that are already breaking the law? Bike lanes mean nothing when a speeding driver is texting or chatting on his cell phone. If your destination is on one of those racetrack roads, then ride your bicycle on the sidewalk!

There are nearly as many problems w/cyclists as there are cyclists. I understand all of its benefits, but as this area has grown more populated, cyclists' attempts at safety haven't grown correspondingly.
If you're moseying down one of those lovely country roads, sans helmet, w/some goodies in your basket & your hair dancing in the breeze like in one of the many PBS specials, that's wonderful. But that's not the scenario here on the crowded peninsula & it hasn't been for many years.
I know 2 cyclists who've been hit in the past year: 1 is highly careful, the other much less so. One had a head injury, one an arm injury that is still troublesome. One was the victim of a hit & run & both were legally in the right when hit.
The defensive cycling necessary in this area now scares me. Please, cyclists, help me, as a careful driver, not hit you by following the above hints & keeping your wits about you. I never drive drunk, I rarely am on my Bluetooth when I drive & I'm cautious because there's so much traffic. But even so, you don't stop at all red lights or stop signs, you don't honor my right of way & you don't do enough to make yourself visible. The last thing I want to do is visit you in the hospital & know that you have to eat that horrible food!

Free personalized radio that
plays the music you love
Paula Cole
Cole was born and raised in Rockport, Massachusetts, the daughter of an amateur musician and a visual artist. Following her high-school graduation, she went to the Berklee College of Music to study jazz singing and improvisation. After she graduated from Berklee, Cole became a professional musician in order to make a living; she continued to write original material on the side.
Her first big break arrived when Peter Gabriel invited her to perform on his 1992-1993 world tour. Shortly afterward, she signed to Imago Records, where she released her debut album, Harbinger, in 1994. Imago went out of business within a year of the album's release, though, which prevented the record from getting exposure on radio and in the press. In 1995, she signed a new contract with Warner Bros., which reissued Harbinger in the fall of that year. Cole returned with her second album, This Fire, in October 1996. The album and its accompanying single, "Where Have All the Cowboys Gone?," became word-of-mouth hits and eventually broke into the mainstream during the spring of 1997. That summer, Cole participated in the first Lilith Fair, a traveling festival that had been designed by Sarah McLachlan to showcase female artists. Cole was one of the performers to receive a significant boost in profile from the tour, and was the subject of many articles in the mainstream press.
In 1998, Cole won the Grammy for Best New Artist, despite the fact that she released her debut album in 1994 and, therefore, was technically ineligible. That same year, she scored another hit with the single "I Don't Want to Wait," popularized as the theme to the television hit Dawson's Creek. Her much-anticipated third album, Amen, followed in 1999 and broadened Cole's sound with electronica and hip-hop textures. It wasn't nearly as popular as This Fire, though, prompting Cole to drop out of the limelight and focus on raising her daughter.
Eight years passed before she returned with a new single, "14," and a new album, 2007's Courage. Although only modestly popular, Courage represented something of a stylistic return for Cole, who had settled into an eclectic, jazz-influenced adult contemporary vein. She began recording and touring on a more regular basis, releasing her fourth album, Ithaca, in 2010. Cole undertook a crowdfunding project to complete and self-release her next recording, Raven, which was issued in the spring of 2013. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

Shabelle journalist gunned down in Somalia
Nairobi, January 18, 2013--A veteran producer for the Shabelle Media Network was gunned down today in Mogadishu, the fifth Shabelle journalist killed in 13 months. The Committee to Protect Journalists condemns this murder and calls on Somali authorities to not only investigate, but to follow up on the investigative task force on journalist murders that was promised by Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamoud in November.
Unidentified assailants shot Shabelle producer Abdihared Osman Aden at around 7 a.m. today while he was walking to work in the Wadajir district of the capital, according to local journalists and news reports. The journalist, who was shot at least three times, died at a local hospital, the sources said.

Reviews of this property
A very nice apartment in a fantastic location, everything within walking distance, but quiet. As a family with 3 Kkindern we felt very comfortable.
Eine sehr schöne Wohnung in traumhafter Lage, alles in erreichbarer Nähe, trotzdem ruhig. Als Familie mit 3 Kkindern haben wir uns sehr wohlgefühlt.
Great apartment and location! Laetitia was nice and helpful. I really can recommend this apartment for others, too!
Very central location, clean and modern.
Small disadvantage is a lack of privacy within the apartment because the bedrooms are not completely separate from the living room.
Perfect location on the lung and quiet farm in central Nice! The host was very nice and accommodating. The apartment was fresh and nice and worked great for our family with two teenage children!
Perfekt läge på lung och tyst gård mitt i Nice! Värden var mycket trevlig och tillmötesgående. Lägenheten var fräsch och fin och fungerade utmärkt för vår familj med två tonårsbarn!
The apartment where absolutly fantastic! We where 6 girlfriends who stayed there and there was plenty of space for everyone. The location was great. Close to the beach, shopping and the old town. Laetitia was very friendly and arranged our pickup from the airport. Cecilia - Sweden
A gorgeous apartment right in the heart of Nice. Laetitia was lovely, very friendly and met us as we arranged on our arrival and departure. I would highly recommend this apartment. Beautiful!
Very nice and modern apartment with everything it needs. Very centrally located and quiet. Handover and delivery went well. Nice landlady.
Sehr schöne und moderne Wohnung mit allem was es braucht. Sehr zentral und ruhig gelegen. Wohnungsübergabe und Abgabe hat gut geklappt. Nette Vermieterin.
beautiful apartment, the architect has worked hard to insert three bedrooms and two bathrooms in 70 meters in the loft, but little privacy ... located in the city center, no parking (24 € / day to 250 m) wifi is not available (even if it is listed operating! 15 euro / day by Vodafone abroad).
appartamento bello, l'architetto ha lavorato molto per inserire tre camere e due bagni in 70 metri in parte soppalcati, però poca privacy... situato in centro città, senza parcheggio ( 24 euro/giorno a 250 mt) wifi non disponibile (anche se elencato operativo!! 15 euro/giorno by Vodafone all'estero).

text: Hello all: I hived my first 3 lbs package yesterday. I have a screened bottom board and didn't put the apm board in. Some of the bees are clustered under the hive. Not sure if this is going to be a problem. My question, should I put the apm board in and make them find the entrance? Any suggestions? Thanks..

I am planning to move my honey bee hive from Michigan to Texas using an enclosed cargo trailer. We have a few concerns.
1.) Is this a safe distance?
2.) What about weather (cold here in MI but hot in TX)?
3.) Should the hive been sealed or use a hive net?
4.) What about the winter cluster? What if it's disturbed during transit?
We've heard winter is the best time to move. But MI to TX? Please help us. Thanks!

Nassau-based interior designer Amanda Lindroth is quick to name her current decorating obsession: antique and vintage rattan. So when she was enlisted to make over The Dunmore beach club on Harbour Island's eastern shore, she was quick to order up a truckload of her favorite element—rattan side tables and chairs, barstools, ottomans, and a banquette. The quirky pieces add '60s flair to the classic beach look she likes to call "under-decorated."
The Dunmore has been run as a hotel since the 1980s, although it retains a clubby atmosphere. Their signature cabanas have been aqua and white since 1963.

Re: Pause Button
Traron - I actually do computer repair for a living, so yeah - I understand completely. That's why when you have an issue like this, and there is not a TSB for it to shove at the dealership - then I know it's gonna be a pain to get resolved.
Re: Pause Button
UPDATE: After not hearing a word from the dealer all day (left it at 8AM this morning), I called. They said that they have strut mounts on national back-order (separate issue...steering noise)- but they threw my name in the pot for a set of those. As far as the Pause Button issue, their top tech has been working with it all day but still hasn't found a solution. They will get back to me tomorrow. Oh joy. Also no solution on an intermittent OnStar red LED issue (another issue I brought it for).
Re: Pause Button
@davedogcaddy, we're sorry to read about the concerns you've been experiencing with your vehicle. Have you heard any updates from the dealership today?

Re: Pause Button
After a couple hours and no call back, I called, again they said they'd call back. This time they actually did. Sounds like my service manager is out sick, and the lady I spoke with could only give me very general information about the progress. Nothing real detailed. She said that the OnStar system had been working normally the entire time they've had it (figures), but that it had logged an 'event' and they wanted to dig into that further. She also said that the XM was now working normally. I pressed her for more information on this (is the PAUSE button working?), she said they said everything was working normally. Wouldn't (couldn't?) give me any more details than that. Also said the strut mounts would be here in a couple days. When I asked her about the 'national backorder' she then seemed unsure about when the strut mounts would be here. Wants me to let them work on the OnStar some more tomorrow, and hopefully my service manager would be back in, and see where we are at tomorrow.
So maybe some progress? Hard to say. If the Pause Button *is* fixed I will be sure to find out what was done to fix it, and share any info I can here. Guess for now I'll just put a few more miles on the ATS loaner.
Re: Pause Button
Latest News: Service Manager says 'he thinks' the tech already got the Pause button issue 'taken care of'. Something about "the tech had to work through several things with engineering, but he's already moved onto to the other items on your list so I think that means he got it fixed"
I asked him to please get me some detailed notes for when I pick it up so I could share it here. He said he will make sure to have that for me.
Also said the tech was currently driving the car making some OnStar calls to make sure that issue was fixed and that the strut mounts already arrived today, and he hoped to have me taken care of by tomorrow. I'll let you guys know the verdict on the Pause button, and hopefully have some details on what it takes to fix it so you can adviser your local dealership.
Tomorrow will be day four at the dealership, last time they had a car this long was when the wife's CTS sunroof started leaking a couple years ago and they had to replace half the interior (!) - although I did give them quite the 'to do' list so....

My pause has not worked since the radio was replaced for nav memory failure. Screen reads "try again later" when pause button pushed.
Re: Pause Button
Caddybill, you need to let it buffer for about 10 seconds before you push the pause button. By the way, since I started this thread it has not happened once.
Re: Pause Button
....and caddybill, what happens when you wait more than 10 seconds....how about waiting about 5 mins the hitting pause?
Re: Pause Button
Well you guys are never gonna believe this (insert sarcasm here): Went to get the car from the dealership today. They fixed everything except for....wait for it....the pause button.
I had a feeling it was going to play out like this. So each day, I'd call and see what the progress was, and each day they'd be vague on the the pause button issue (i.e. "well he's moved onto other things so it MUST be fixed"). Today I called before I went to pick it up and asked what was done to fix the pause button. The service manager said the tech had 'printed me out something' - but that he (The Service Manager), really didn't understand it - so I should just come and take a look. I said that we better not be talking about instructions on how to use the radio - because that is NOT the issue here. I pressed for WHAT WAS DONE, and finally he admitted that they couldn't find any problems and the system was working properly, and that I could test it with them in the car when I got there. Now keep in mind I already did this four days ago with the service manager, he saw it not work, he (said) he understood, AND I left SIMPLE instructions (play an XM Channel for at lease five mins and hit pause). So I get there, and the thing he had printed was THE PAGE FROM THE FREAKIN' MANUAL ON HOW TO USE THE RADIO. So, we sat in the car with XM on for 5 mins, I had him press pause. It didn't work. "Oh I see what you mean." Really?
So they either didn't listen to me and/or didn't read the instructions, or they did and said 'screw it' and gave up. Either way I got the run around for 4 days and still no fix. So they are gonna talk to the engineers (I thought they already said they did that), and then get back to me. They have agreed if they can't find a solution to try another radio (since this feature worked before the radio replacement).
In other news on the way home I tried the pause feature on FM and it works normally So this only happens on XM. Is there any way since others have said this just broke for them recently too that this could be an issue on XM's part? There is another thread that talks about recent issue with song info not updating. Related?
I will keep you guys updated. In the mean time if Katie could jump in and start helping on my behalf with Cadillac that would be awesome. You should already have my VIN as I asked for a build sheet recently.

Just a weird idea here, but maybe you should try some other XM channels to see if you have the same issue. I know it would be crazy, but could XM have an extra bit they can send to enable/disable pausing?
I know it doesn't make sense that you can pause it at first, but maybe they don't send the bit very often???
Re: Pause Button
All XM channels I have tried show the same problem. I did find someone with on a buick forum with the same problem, solution was new radio.

That is such a weird problem.......happening on XM, but not FM. Hopefully the dealer will just replace it for you.
Re: Pause Button
I can only hope. It's just sad that no one at the dealership has any idea how the modern toys in the cars they are selling works. While I was there yesterday I got comments from various service advisers like:
Are you sure your car has that feature?
I've never seen anyone actually use that feature.
I didn't even know that feature existed.
The documentation doesn't say if the pause will even work past five mins of use.
Each time I've had the car in for service their is a flyer in the car that says something like 'you may get a survey from GM, if you cannot mark Completely Satisfied on everything GM says we fail...' so I've emailed the guy that it says to email if you have a problem, and copied Katie in on it, so we'll see what happens. My gut says the replacement radio is just faulty.

Alan Hyde, Leading Labor and Employment Law Scholar at Rutgers Law School–Newark, Earns University Promotion
Newark, NJ – Rutgers School of Law–Newark Professor Alan Hyde, a labor and employment law scholar of worldwide stature who also enjoys a distinguished reputation for his work in legal theory and law and society, has been promoted to the rank of Professor II. Conferred by the Rutgers University Board of Governors, the Professor II designation is reserved for faculty who have achieved national and international recognition in their field.

"Professor Hyde is a ground-breaking and influential scholar, challenging teacher, and a generous mentor to junior faculty colleagues and other academics," said Dean Stuart L. Deutsch. "His promotion is a well-deserved honor."
Among Hyde's most significant work are the books Working in Silicon Valley: Economic and Legal Analysis of a High-Velocity Labor Market (2003) and Bodies of Law (1997). Working in Silicon Valley has been widely praised as an innovative analysis of how the experiences of the high technology labor market offer important insights about the law and economic forces for other industries in which job changes are frequent and the employment relationship is loose. Legal theory scholars applaud Bodies of Law as an original and highly sophisticated account of the way in which law regards the human body in contexts as diverse as workplace injuries, drug testing, criminal rights, and invasions of privacy.
Professor Hyde is also the co-author of Legal Rights and Interests in the Workplace: Cases and Materials on Employment and Labor Law (with C.W. Summers and K.G.

text: I have had my hives for about nine months. Started with five, now have three. Anyway, two of them have been building lots of comb and storing honey BETWEEN the frames of the first and second story hive boxes. When I go to inspect the hives this causes problems because the honey spills out and bees get quite excited and somewhat mean. Also it's hard to get the boxes apart and I fear starting robbing. Is this a normal thing? What should I do when it happens?

Lilt of Eire in Virginia Hunt Country
Blackthorne Inn & Restaurant • Upperville, VA
Escape Kit
- A Two-Night Stay for Two in a Cottage, Sundays through Thursdays ($249) or Fridays and Saturdays ($299)
- Welcome Bottle of Wine and Cheese Plate
- Tasting at a Local Vineyard for Two
- $25 Credit at Blackthorne Restaurant or Wolfe Tone's Pub
The Destination
Just an hour outside of the nation's capital, Fauquier County has become synonymous with Hunt Country and all things equestrian in Virginia. These rolling hills at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains host posh polo matches, fox hunts, and vast green pastures. Fine pedigrees aren't confined to the stables, though; peek inside one of the historic manor homes set back from the road and you'll find an affluent society seeking simplicity in the countryside.
The Digs
Blackthorne Inn & Restaurant brings the spirit of Eire to the Hunt Country town of Upperville, Virginia. Consider yourself very lucky, indeed, to be staying in the 1763 stone house—once owned by George Washington—where cozy cabins and cottages are named for counties in Ireland. All accommodations feature plush beds and satellite TV, while many offer Jacuzzi tubs, fireplaces, and decks. With breakfast overlooking a serene pond and a setting as green as the Emerald Isle, you won't need to leave your room. But when you do, be sure to grab a bite to eat and a perfectly-poured pint of Guinness at Blackthorne Restaurant and Wolfe Tone's Pub.
The Diversions
The inn's location in the heart of Hunt Country gives guests easy access to year-round entertainment like polo matches, steeplechase races, rafting, antique shops, and Civil War battlefields. Take in the scenery during an afternoon hike near historic Ashby Gap or pamper your palate with a wine tasting at one of the nearby wineries. The inn also can arrange trail rides throughout the area.
"Went to Blackthorne Inn as a getaway for my boyfriend's birthday. It was so close, yet so far away! Very cozy room, beautiful grounds, delicious food, and incredibly friendly staff. I hated to leave!"-- TripAdvisor

"Night Crabbing" by Melton
Last Modified: Friday, October 18, 2013 11:52 AM
By Warren Arceneaux / American Press
Nancy Melton is using a new painting style, but is continuing her career-long practice of using her art to raise money for good causes.
Melton's exhibit "Children in Motion" will open tomorrow in the Historic City Hall Arts & Cultural Center.
Proceeds from opening night will be used to provide medical equipment to be used in Papua New Guinea.
More than 40 watercolor paintings will be featured in the exhibit. Most show children at play.
"That's what I do all the time — I play with my kids. I have 11 and one great-grandchild. They never stop moving," Melton said.
"Watercolor is kind of like that. It moves; it doesn't tell you where it is going to go. I decided it would be a wonderful subject for a show."
Melton, a longtime teacher, uses the "pour" technique she learned from painter Lian Quan Zhen on one of his visits to Lake Charles.
"I start out with primary colors: yellow, red and blue. When the yellow hits red it will make an orange; yellow and blue makes green. So the truth is we don't need any other colors," she said.
"With watercolor, it has to be pretty; there is no way it can be ugly because paint is beautiful and the colors are beautiful."
Melton worked mostly with oil paints, but she said that she quickly took to watercolor, telling herself, "This is my medium."
She is using the show to raise funds for a medical mission in Papua New Guinea.
"My church, St. Andrew Presbyterian, has a missionary couple that works in Papua New Guinea, an island near Australia," she said.
"They have a desperate need for medical equipment. They have clinics to help provide care to anyone that needs it there. They need a fetal Doppler monitor; our goal for the show is to raise enough to buy one."
The opening reception for the exhibit will be 5:30-8 p.m. Friday, Oct. 18, in the Historic City Hall Arts & Cultural Center, 1001 Ryan St.
The exhibit will be on display through Jan. 4.
For more information or to make a donation, email Melton at email@example.com or visit nancymelton.photoreflect.com.

First Lady Michelle Obama to Address NAACP 101st Convention in Kansas City
First Lady Michelle Obama will address the NAACP's 101st Annual Convention on Monday, July 12, 2010 to discuss steps to combat childhood obesity and her efforts to create a healthier generation of kids through the Let's Move! campaign.
"It is my honor to welcome First Lady Michelle Obama to our annual convention to discuss her views on ways to tackle an epidemic that is plaguing our nation's young people," said NAACP Chairman Roslyn M. Brock. "She is a commanding figure who will ensure that this issue is at the forefront of our nation's health agenda."
"We are elated to have First Lady Michelle Obama joining us to celebrate our 101st year," said NAACP President Benjamin Todd Jealous. "Providing affordable health care coverage and ensuring the well-being of all Americans is a priority for both the NAACP and the Obama Administration. Michelle Obama's visionary leadership in confronting the problem of child hood obesity is to be applauded. At our convention, we will unveil health care and advocacy solutions to help solve the critical health problems that are plaguing our communities," said Jealous. "The First Lady's contributions to that important discussion will be invaluable in realizing our vision of an America that ensures that all people have the tools needed to live a healthy life."
"We are absolutely thrilled to have the First Lady address our convention," said NAACP Vice Chairman Leon W. Russell. "She was invited to discuss childhood obesity, an issue of importance to our members, and we are pleased she accepted our invitation."
Widely labeled as a national epidemic, increasing childhood obesity rates have been a problem for decades but efforts to address the issue has been insufficient. In a commitment to tackle this issue, the President established a Task Force on Childhood Obesity to develop an action plan to solve the problem of obesity among the nation's children within a generation, and the Administration has undertaken a comprehensive campaign led by the First Lady.
Strategies resulting from the task force report include updating child nutrition policies by utilizing the best available scientific information, ensuring access to healthy, affordable food in schools and communities, increasing physical activity and empowering parents and caregivers with the information and tools they need to make good choices for themselves and their families.
The recently launched Let's Move! campaign aims to bring together community leaders, teachers, doctors, nurses, and parents in a national effort to tackle childhood obesity. Let's Move! will push for healthier food in schools, encourage children to be more physically active, and help make healthy, affordable food available in every part of the nation.
"As the host city for this year's convention it is exciting to have the First Lady attend our annual convention," said NAACP Kansas City Branch President Anita L. Russell. "The First Lady's presence will benefit the convention as well as Kansas City as a whole."
For information and detailed schedule, please contact Chris Fleming at (202) 463-2940 ext. 1021 or firstname.lastname@example.com. For credentials, please visit NAACP.org
Founded in 1909, the NAACP is the nation's oldest and largest civil rights organization. Its members throughout the United States and the world are the premier advocates for civil rights in their communities, conducting voter mobilization and monitoring equal opportunity in the public and private sectors.

Oenophile's Oasis in the Peach State
Sylvan Valley Lodge • Sautee Nacoochee, GA
Escape Kit
- A Two-Night Stay for Two in a Standard Lodge Room
- Daily Breakfast for Two
- Evening Wine and Cheese Social Hour
- Georgia Wine Tasting with Bottle of Your Favorite Wine
If you're Bordeaux with the day-to-day—or just need to decompress during the holidays—the time is ripe for a getaway to north Georgia's wine country. Raise your glass to the Sylvan Valley Lodge with this Escape, and you'll be toasting the Appalachian Mountains in no time.
After a hearty breakfast and a cup of freshly brewed coffee, explore the premium-label four-acre property, which boasts landscaped gardens and coursing waterfalls. Then, uncork a day of hiking or wildlife viewing in nearby Unicoi State Park.
Those feeling nostalgic for the Appalachian spirit of yesteryear will be delighted with the North Georgia mountains. "Arts and crafts, including pottery making, basket weaving, and quilting, are still practiced in the region," says Frommer's. "At all local festivals and even on the front porch on a Saturday night, the sound of bluegrass music still fills the air."
Varietals are the spice of life, and you'd be hard-pressed to find an area with more to do: hike along the Chattahoochee River; wander around Nacoochee Village, the Village of Sautee, and the alpine village of Helen; or visit more than a dozen nearby wineries. The lodge hosts a tasting of local Georgia wines—you'll even go home with a bottle of your favorite vino to enjoy at your leisure.
The glass is always half-full at the Sylvan Valley Lodge, so please your palate with an Escape to Georgia wine country.
"Within 70 to 120 miles of Atlanta, North Georgia may be one of the South's best-kept travel secrets. City dwellers can hike through national forests, scale Georgia's highest peak, and canoe and swim in mountain lakes."-- Frommer's

The Power of the Batch Sweep
Bjorn Sjodin February 2, 2016
Have you ever run a large parametric sweep overnight, only to discover the next morning that the parametric solver is still not finished? You may wish you could inspect the solutions for the parameters that are already computed while waiting for the last few parameters to converge. The remedy to this problem is to use a batch sweep, which automatically saves the parametric solutions that were already computed on a file that you can open for visualization and postprocessing purposes.Read More

In 1977, the axion, a type of elementary particle, was suggested as a solution to a theoretical particle physics problem: the strong charge-parity (CP) problem. Later, it was discovered that the particle may actually be a component of dark matter. Many experiments are currently underway that have the goal of detecting axions. In this blog post, we'll focus on the Axion Dark Matter eXperiment (ADMX), which uses a microwave cavity in an attempt to accomplish this goal.Read More

I was curious how the big boys/girls do it.
Do they have multiple mating yards or colored mating nucs, that they rotate through.
I.e. Every Friday they graft X cells for Red Yard or Red Nucs, which is moved/captures per queen rearing schedule.
Does each yard have a dedicated starter(s)/finisher(s), that are used every 21+ days?
Or do they have one constantly restocked starter(s)/finisher(s) that is used for all yards/colored nucs?
I'm trying to decide how I want to try my hand this year. I can see the perk of 20 queens a week vs 60 queens every 3 weeks. The load per week would be less, and the chance of bad weather ruining a entire batch would be minimized.
Any information would be great. I grafted/mated around 100 queens last season. I'm getting my ducks in a row to do significantly more, but I'd like to learn from professionals.

MARTIAN PIXELS: If you'd like to examine the surface of Mars in minute detail you could set up a space mission and travel there. Or you could download the high resolution image the European Space Agency has released. The image comprises 2702 individual swaths of the martian surface that together represent 87.8% of the entire planet. 61.5% of the entire surface is mapped at a resolution of 20 m per pixel or better. Some spots are missing because the relevant image was particularly affected by dust or atmospheric effects. The images were captured over around 10 years by the Mars Express craft, using a high-resolution stereo camera. Metre by metre we're filling in the picture of our solar system.
UP DOWN TURN AROUND: Ricoh's omnidirectional camera takes a full 360 degree panoramic image in one shot. Two fisheye lenses each cover 180 degrees of view. The prototype camera combines the 2 pictures, then sends them wirelessly to a tablet or smartphone. The image works like a regular panorama, but you can also see up and down, and if you zoom out, the image becomes a sphere.
FAR FLYING HORNETS: The Black Hornet Nano is more than just a toy helicopter. In the hands of British forces in Afghanistan it's a battery-powered mini-drone equipped with a camera that relays video and still images to a handheld control terminal. The 16 gram 10 cm drone can be piloted directly or programmed to follow co-ordinates using GPS at up to 35 Kph. The drones have a range of 800 metres and can fly for up to 30 minutes. That's quite a range.
UV MELT: Manufacturing processes sometimes need objects to be held in place temporarily, for example with a light adhesive. But separating them may require an unwelcome force. The adhesion strength of an organic substance developed by AIST can be varied by shining light on it. Shine green light on the substance and it solidifies, while under UV light, it gradually liquefies. The light doesn't heat or cool it, but only changes how liquid it is. The material is a weak adhesive, but the researchers hope to increase its strength. You'd think there would be medical applications for a substance like that too.
SHIVER THE TIMBERS: The hulls of ships accumulate bacteria that increase drag, reduce energy efficiency and block or clog undersea sensors. What's more, the biofilm may attract seaweed, worms, and mussels. One way to help prevent this build-up is to use toxic paints that kill bacteria but are bad for the environment. Now researchers at Duke University think that ships could shake the bacteria off, literally. They've developed a material that deforms in response to electricity. Flicking a switch could cause the coating to move and deform, shaking off bacteria and other organisms. So would it take a single big shake now and again or frequent tiny shakes?

More From Boston Women's Health Book Collective
Boston Women's Health Book Collective 's Biography
Charity of Choice: Our Bodies Ourselves
Biggest Influences Never Met: Judy: Bertrand Russell. Miriam: Pete Seeger.
It Takes a Village: Over the years, thousands of individuals have participated in various editions of Our Bodies, Ourselves.
21st Century Collaboration: Originally compiled by 12 women using mimeograph machines and red pencils, the latest edition of Our Bodies, Ourselves used Google documents and Wiki conversations to facilitate the collaboration of hundreds.
The Boston Women's Health Book Collective (now known as Our Bodies Ourselves) is the non-profit responsible for Our Bodies, Ourselves, the revolutionary women's health and sexuality bestseller. The book's first edition was a 35-cent, 196-page newsprint booklet called Women and Their Bodies, written by twelve feminist activists who met at a women's lib conference health seminar in 1969. The stapled booklet compiled their research and personal experiences of childbirth, violence against women, sexuality, doctors, and more. It sold 200,000 copies by word-of-mouth alone.
Three years later, it became the 276-page Our Bodies, Ourselves, published by Simon & Schuster, and has since sold almost five million copies worldwide, with 26 foreign editions as well as one in braille. The New York Times has called the book, now in its ninth addition, "America's best-selling book on all aspects of women's health" and a "feminist classic." And the small, grassroots collective behind it has grown into a strong women's health education, advocacy, and consulting organization.
MAKERS interviewed Boston Women's Health Book Collective members Miriam Hawley and Judy Norsigian as representatives of the groundbreaking organization.
Miriam Hawley, organized the original 1969 health seminar that spurred the collective, and became one of the organizations founders and long-standing board members. Hawley is an author, speaker, clinical social worker, group therapist, and organizational consultant. She is currently the CEO of Enlignment®, Inc., a business coaching and consulting company.
Judy Norsigian, also a founder and board member, is currently the Executive Director of Our Bodies Ourselves. She is an internationally renowned speaker and writer on a wide range of women's health concerns, including abortion and contraception, sexually transmitted disease, genetics, and reproductive technologies. She has appeared on numerous national television and radio programs, has an honorary doctorate degree from Boston University, and was selected by Women's eNews as one of the "21 Leaders for the 21st Century."

Accommodation summary
|Opatovická, 110 00 Prague, チェコ共和国
This beautiful mini-suite can sleep up to two people on a comfortable queen size bed. There is a fully equipped kitchen with all the appliances you need and a spacious dining area. The apartment also has a TV and internet WIFI. There is a modern private bathroom.
The apartment is surrounded by Prague's fascinating historic center and represent an easy access to wonderful architecture and to the nightlife of one of the most beautiful European capitals in the world.
Prague's age-old nucleus develops along the banks of the Moldau river. The upper part of the city is dominated towards the West by the presence of the Hradcany neighborhood, center of political power and home of the wonderful castle. Inside its walls rises the striking Saint Vitus Gothic cathedral.
Going southwards, you'll stroll amongst buildings in Mala Strana built during the end of the 18th century, admiring, beyond the river, the Old Town. It is the heart of Prague, dominated by Gothic, Baroque and Renaissance buildings; Old Town Square preserves the extraordinary Astronomical Clock Tower, the twin bellowers of the Tin church and the splendid church of Saint Nicholas.
A short distance from your apartment in Prague, Wenceslas Square (Venceslao), filled with Parisian type boulevards, has arcades and domes of the National Museum. You're at Nove Mesto, the hub of the city's economic life, the area for shopping and banks. Strolling in Republic Square you will not forget the art nouveau of the town hall and the beautiful glass dome of Sala Smetana, location of prestigious concerts.
Do not forget to visit the Jewish Quarter, Josefov; its synagogues, the Jewish Cemetery and the town hall, with its counterclockwise clock, have remained intact during the course of centuries, the only case in Europe.

|Check-in before
Wonderful apartment, very clean and quiet! Francesco and Irma were very kind and helpful! You need about 15 minutes to Karlův most - a perfect place to stay when you want to visit Prague!
Thank you Francesco for your kind hosting.
It was a very nice apartment within a top central location which I definitely can recommend. As I said we enjoyed staying there.
Apartment and service was very good. The only problem is the limited volume of boiler, which makes jacuzzi unusable (unless you want to catch cold).
The apartment was good enough for our 3 nights stay in Prague, being located at a walking distance to the old city center and close to various shops, restaurants and bars. The apartment is clean and nicely decorated, having new furniture. The breakfast was good enough to start the visiting day in Prague, although relative small amount of options were offered.
We had a very unpleasant surprise regarding the reserved parking place: the backyard of the building allows parking of maximum 3 cars, but there were already 4 cars parked in, as we arrived. To park, I had to drive through an extreme narrow entry and turn the car to 90 degrees on the spot, without having enough space to do it. Our contact, Francesco, became very upset and impolite, as I stopped trying to park the car after 20 minutes of moving it back and forth without any visible progress and also allowing him to show me that parking is possible. His offer to bet on 50 EUR that parking is possible, I didn't accept...
In case of a successful parking, the expectation is to let the car key with him, so that he can drive it in and out, eventually several times a day, whenever somebody else needs to drive in or out.
Finally I had to park my car into a public parking place for 1.600 KC ;-), an unplanned amount of money for our vacation budget in Prague.
Beautiful apartment, great host and perfect location. You have restaurants, clubs, pubs, stores etc. right by the corner. We really enjoyed our stay.
Very confortable Flat . Ideal situation for all your visit , shopping , nightlife in Prague
Excellent experience , we'll come back !!
The accommodation was like it is shown in the pictures.
Everything was clean and just to feel yourself comfortable.
The contact before starting the journey was just in time, clearly and always friendly.
After arrival we were welcomed warmly and all questions and issues were talked over.
During the whole stay we always had the possibility to contact the reception by upcoming questions, problems or enquiries.
Sum up we had a pleasant, comfortable stay in prague. The minisuite is placed in the Centre near the trainstation and the old town so consequently entails Short ways and many nice views.
Booking via wimdu- ai quattro angeli is just recommended.
Thomas and Jana
A good apartment on the top (high 3rd floor) of a nice apartment block. Windows and small balcony facing a yard, so absolutely no traffic noise and very little disturbance from other neighbours. Kitchen was fine, living room ok, wifi worked well except a few times in the evening bedroom and bathroom good except for heat (the fairly strong airconditioner didn't manage to cool down the attic, which was under direct sunlight). A well kept place - and as an extra bonus for us, there was a nice vegetarian restaurant (Estrella) just a few metres away!
Die Maisonette-Wohnung ist ruhig aber zentral in der Altstadt gelegen, alles Sehenswerte ist gut zu Fuß erreichbar. Alles sehr sauber und zweckmäßig ausgestattet, für Städtekurzurlaub gut geeignet. Im Hochsommer ist der Schlafbereich in der oberen Etage sehr warm, da die Aircondition im unteren Bereich hängt. Wir bekamen aber direkt das Angebot, einen Ventilator aufzustellen, der die Situation verbesserte. Der Vermieter ist sehr hilfsbereit, das kleine Frühstück im Untergeschoß absolut ausreichend. Der Whirl-Pool ist zur Duschnutzung nicht wirklich optimal.

Get the Look: Gaia Spring Collection
Greek mythology tells us that out of Chaos Gaia was born. As the creator of the universe she is mother earth, and everything that exists in the world originates from her. Gaia represents strength, power, creation, and maternal nurturing. Inspired by this, we created a collection of strong earth tones. Our Gaia Collection features two Limited Edition Eyeshadows, and our all new Limited Edition Radiant Finishing Powder. The eyeshadow in Chaos is a fiery copper, Celestial eyeshadow is a deep blacked gold, and Radiant Finishing Powder in Sacred is a soft glowing peach. Together these shades create a strong and enchanting look. Follow these simple steps to achieve this powerful look:
1. Start by applying a sheer layer of Satin Matte Foundation (Sara's shade is Warm 1) using the #25 Foundation Brush.
2. With the #17 Blush Brush add just a touch of Satin Matte Blush in Carnation to the apples of the cheeks.
3. Lightly dust Radiant Finishing Powder in Sacred along the forehead, cheekbone and jawline; as you would with a bronzer or highlighter. The #23 Kitten Brush is the perfect tool for the job, this way you will get a sheer glowing application.
4. With the #37 Eye Blending Brush sweep the Sacred Radiant Finishing Powder from the lash line to brow bone. This acts as a nice base and brow bone highlight.
5. Pick up a small amount of Chaos on the #39 Large Shadow Brush. Then work the shadow into the bristles, spritz with water, and pat the shadow onto your lid and into the crease.
6. Dampen your #33 Angle Liner Brush with water and blend with Celestial to create a liquid liner. Apply Celestial to the upper and lower lash line for intense definition. Bring the line as close to your lashes as possible.. Extend the liner slightly past your natural lash line and wing it up for an eye widening effect.
7.. With the #36 Pointed Crease Brush blend (dry) Celestial along your crease, but concentrate the color along your outer crease.
8. Coat your lashes with several layers of Natural Definition Mascara in Black to add drama.
9. Finish the look with Rhubarb Lip Tint to moisturize and enhance your natural lip color.

VAN NUYS - The man accused of setting a homeless woman on fire while she slept on a bus bench pleaded not guilty Monday to charges of attempted murder and aggravated mayhem.
Dennis Petillo, 24, appeared at the Van Nuys courthouse four days after he was arrested for allegedly pouring a flammable liquid on the 67-year-old woman and setting her on fire around 1 a.m. Thursday at Van Nuys Boulevard and Sherman Way.
Witnesses told news reporters that Petillo went into a Walgreens store at the intersection and purchased what may have been rubbing alcohol, then walked out of the store and doused the woman with it.
He then threw a match on her and ran, they said.
A witness said he called 911, then followed the man until police arrived and arrested the suspect. An area resident told news crews the woman lived on the bus bench for years.
Police have withheld the victim's name, but people in the neighborhood and at First Lutheran Church of Van Nuys said they knew her as Violet.
She remains hospitalized in critical but stable condition, according to the District Attorney's Office.
Pastor Erik Loza of First Lutheran said he visited her at the Los Angeles County-USC Burn Center on Monday and was told "she's not out of the woods yet."
"It looks like they are going to have to do some skin grafting. Her face was burned," he said.
Loza said Violet attended the 4 p.m. Spanish service each Sunday and the community breakfast on Saturday mornings.
He said he knew very little about her, except that she had two grown children.
"She was a sweet lady," he said. "She didn't talk a lot. Because of her situation, because of her age, you might think she was constantly asking for help. But she would never ask us for anything. She never asked for money."
Laza said the church is accepting monetary donations and even blankets for Violet, who may face a long recovery. Donations can be made to First Lutheran Church of Van Nuys, Attention: Help for Violet, 6952 Van Nuys Blvd., Van Nuys, CA 91405.
If convicted, Petillo faces up to life in prison, the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office said.

I haven't decided if I'm going OS Jango or even maybe Jaster with this, but it'll be very Jango'esque either way...I can't help myself.
