Reviews of this property
The apartment is comfortable and welcoming in a leafy suburb just outside the city limits of Paris.It was a perfect place to return to after exploring Paris and the area itself is tourist - free so gives good insight into how the locals live. I enjoyed every minute of my 12 day stay. The apartment is spacious and well equipped and
Franck is a wonderful host who can give visitors lots of information to enrich their visit to Paris. Merçi beaucoup to Franck for going out of his way to ensure my visit was a success.
Very comfortable apartment located in a quiet, beauty and safe area in Paris, It is very clean and care, the kitchen equipped with all what you need. We were two adults with two children, 4 and 6 years, Franck wasn't there, but he was accessible by e-mail in any time, but Nathalie managed everything, she is friendly and very kind person and gave us all what we need. The apartment is ideal for discovering the city, some time we walk to Eiffel tour, it is about 5 Km from the apartment. There are shops and some supermarkets nearby, plus the food prices in these stores are not much more expensive than in Sweden. Just make a small purchase of food and then find yourself at home. The nearest station is "Anatole France" which located about 10 minutes from the apartment. We absolutely recommend this apartment. Thanks for Nathalie and Franck.
Our 2nd stay in this property, just love everything about it, including the area, shops and of course our lovely host Franck:) Thank you for letting us stay again.
Beautiful apartment, well equipped and comfortable. Franck is very kind and we spent a nice week. Recommended.
Dear Franck,
Thank you so much!!!
Your house is very good!!!
Best regards
Paula and Adriana
Excellent good and nice place to stay. Very friendly host Franck. This place has everything for a small appartment. Nice bathroom, bedroom, kitchen and livingroom.
Romantic place to stay and very clean. Just 15 min walking from the metro and Lidl just 200 meters.
This was our first stay in Paris and we have enjoyed every hour, which was also to a large part of Franck 's great apartment in which we have always safe and comfortable. It was a great reception with everything imaginable explanation so that we can find our way around well .
We can only recommend this apartment , everything was great !!
Thanks Franck , we will definitely be back : - )
I was traveling alone and was a bit worried about safety-aspects before I went. However the neighbourhood felt safe, and so did the appartment. The nearest metro station is at a 10 minute walk from the house, but there is a RER station at just a 5 minute walking distance. It only takes about 15 minutes to get to the city-center. On the way from the metrostation to the flat there are a couple of take-away places and bakeries that I frequently used.
The flat was great. It was clean and cosy, the bed was wonderful and the bathroom and kitchen really convenient.
To all visitors, they like to spend some days in Paris is that a n apartment which is excellent in every way.
There is a scale between 1 and 10, and 10 is the best, I have to give Franck a ten for the apartment and the location in Levallois. I tell you why: we must have place enough in a comfortable flat, to work after our visits in the several museums with our laptops, when we finish the impressions and facts of the day and i have to save all my photos, which I shot with two cameras on the hard disk and prepare a first selection for a big picture and a lecture, my wife will hold after that in an adult academy in Cologne.
The bedroom with the big bed were superb, the kitchen perfect, the living room a place to chill , the bathroom, everything and the little buidling in the backyard of number 17, extraordinaire. We loved it. After running through the whole day the city and even in some banlieus we must have a place, where we can rest and be ourself, where we have the intention being protected from all the surroundings of the busy stressful activities during the day. Levallois was in that case formidable and if we have to go next year to Pariswe shall ask you Franck first. Thank you for all.

Nature's Whole Complement of Seventeen Omegas – 3' 5' 6' 7' 8 and 9's Extra-Virgin Wild Alaskan Salmon Oil
Effective: Clinically shown to reduce triglyceride levels
Whole: Natural Source of whole omegas + Vitamin D3 + antioxidants
The Benefits of Whole Omegas
Omega 3' 5' 6' 7' 8 and 9's are fatty acids found in wild fish and often referred to as "good fats." Why so good? Primarily because omegas are present and play an important role in every human cell. Specifically' omega fatty acids serve to nourish brain' heart' eye' and kidney tissues. They have been shown to benefit cardiovascular' immune' and digestive health in addition to supporting a healthy metabolism and inflammation response.
Wholemega is a whole fish oil that deliversthe natural profile of 17 omega fatty acidsfound in one of Nature's true superfoods: Wild Alaskan Salmon. In fact' taking the daily serving of Wholemega for a week provides the same amount of whole omega fatty acids as three servings of Wild Alaskan Salmon. Wholemega has been the subject of multiple human clinical trials — with compelling results — including an ability to lower triglyceride levels in as few as 14 days.
A Difference That's Clear
Fractionated' Isolated' & "Purified"?
The dull' yellow hue and watery texture of conventional fish oil capsules is symbolic of "purified" products. This heavy distillation (which can be necessary to remove contaminants) can fractionate' isolate' and destroy beneficial compounds that give fish oil its naturally vibrant color and clarity.
Wholemega: The Difference is Clear
Wholemega fish oil is different. The Extra-Virgin process used to extract Wholemega' similar to that used in fine olive oil' delivers an oil that is striking in color and transparency. This gentle' food-grade process preserves numerous beneficial compounds — including Vitamin D3 and Astaxanthin. The brilliant hue in Wholemega fish oil comes from Astaxanthin — an antioxidant that is naturally found in Wild Salmon and abundant in this Extra-Virgin fish oil.
Wildly Pure™
All Wholemega formulas contain Wild Alaskan Salmon Oil that comes from protected' recognized sustainable fisheries. This extra-virgin oil comes from only 100% wild fish stocks and does not include genetically modified or farmed salmon. Our herbal blends are reviewed and NON-GMO Project verified.
Food Supplement or "Supplemental Food®"?
Our philosophy on nutrition is simple; seek the benefits of whole food. While others create food supplements' New Chapter strives to deliver Supplemental Food. Food that our bodies inherently recognize and easily utilize. Wholemega continues this tradition in fish oil with its 100% Wild Alaskan Salmon oil. Alaska maintains one of the world's most highly protected and managed natural fisheries and has outlawed salmon fish farming. By using only wild' sustainably caught Alaskan salmon – among the cleanest and most pure fish stocks in the world – chemical processing to deliver purity is not required. Our extra virgin' low-heat process is all that's needed to deliver Nature's whole basket of vital omega fatty acids and naturally beneficial nutrients' like Vitamin D3 and astaxanthin. As a FOOD GRADE oil' Wholemega is extensively tested for detectable contaminantsthat other fish oil products must "purify" or distill out.

Vol. 60, No. 4 (July–August 1972)
CIVILIZING AMERICAN CITIES. Frederick Law Olmstead. Edited by S. B. Sutton. 310 pp. The MIT Press, 1971. $12.50.
AUTOKIND VS. MANKIND. Kenneth R. Schneider. 267 pp. W. W. Norton, 1971. $7.95.
ANATOMY OF A PARK. Albert J. Rutledge.180 pp. McGraw-Hill, 1971. $15.95.
Three books, all related in one way or another to the environment, each with a different approach to the problems caused by urbanization, the automotive revolution, and other such despoilers of the natural environment of our more humane past—to compare them would serve no purpose since each deals with a very specific aspect of the question. Of the three, Miss Sutton's collection, subtitled A Selection of Frederick Law Olmstead's Writings on City Landscape, is by far the most interesting; one should be grateful to the MIT Press for reviving these pieces.
The second part of the last century was one of the most vital periods for American design, and much of the interest in the volume lies in the insight it gives into the mind of an active designer of the era. Olmstead was proud of having upgraded the practice of landscape gardening to that of the profession of landscape architecture or, as he preferred to call it, "an art of design." More than that, he was a pioneer city planner, and his thoughts on that subject are well represented in this book. For years to come, inhabitants of New York, Brooklyn, Montreal, Boston, and other cities will live richer lives because of Central Park, Prospect Park, Mount Royal Park, and the magnificent Boston system. It would be as hard to imagine these cities without their Olmstead parks as it would be to imagine American urban planning today had he not left his legacy to the men who followed him into our age.
As a result of the upheavals of the last few years, it has become customary to think of the city as a sinful hell from which one escapes and of the suburbs as the place to which one is condemned. Olmstead, unlike most of his contemporaries, foresaw the dangers inherent in uncontrolled growth of urban centers and, while he could not have foreseen the invention of the automobile, the chaos resulting has proved his vision of the city, its parks and parkway systems, and its connections to the suburbs to be fresh and vital to reflect the humanist, social reformer, artist, and realist that he was. In an age of strong individualism and laissez-faire, he fought for intelligently planned programs and was successful in convincing many that the common good could also be profitable. The essays in this collection demonstrate the combination of idealism and shrewd realism that constituted Olmstead's strength. Even today, one is convinced, he would make the president of General Motors hear him out.
But will the president of General Motors listen to planner Kenneth Schneider's angry Autokind vs. Mankind? I have serious doubts. Olmstead's sometimes obscure, always old-fashioned and humorless style carries a more convincing argument than this later manifesto—which for all the truths it contains and despite its author's justified anger is little more than a quixotic attempt to send exasperated victims of the automobile to the barricades. Anti-car protesters will not, however, find a slogan-filled hard-cover book too useful as a call to arms. In the past, citizen's groups have had some limited, local successes in blocking the omnivorous car from destroying their land and community. Any such success has always been accomplished with the help of influential people working within the so-called system.
Although Schneider provides us with some of the most damning information about the "enemy" and although I have no reason to dispute his facts, his voice is too strident to appeal to those who could be most effective in the fight for public transportation and other means of reversing the trend. His strategy for action is too vague. Sooner or later the unbearable situation created by the importance given to the car will have to be reversed, but it will take more than a pedestrian's revolt to persuade the American majority to walk, not drive, to the polls in order to vote for the candidate waving an anti-Detroit banner. For the injustice fighters, this battle has low priority.
As for Albert Rutledge's Anatomy of a Park, it is a simple, direct, layman's guide to park design, aimed at people interested in being conscientious members of their park commission. A clear, detailed, and well-illustrated book, it is aptly subtitled: The Essentials of Recreational Area Planning and Design.—Paul J. Mitarachi, New Haven, Connecticut

I missed yesterday's ABC coverage, so was extremely delighted to find out that repeat coverage on ESPN2 was being broadcast today. (:^)
Evan Lysacek - great job on the jumps.....best of the bunch.....just needs to improve his presentation and he'll be right up there with the rest. Would have placed him 4th in the FS.
Ryan Jahnke - better presentation than Evan & pretty good jumps. Nice. Would have placed him 1st in the FS.
Emanuel Sandhu - best presentation in the world (bar none)........except for America's Johnny Weir........too bad about the jumps. Still, I would have had him 2nd in the FS.
Jeffrey Buttle - nice presentation.........not so nice jumps........would have placed him 3rd in the FS.
Cynthia Phaneuf - first time seeing her.......reminded me exactly of Tara Lipinski (an adult one btw).......nice presentation & great jumps. Just wondering if she has Tara's consistency. So far so good. Definitely one to watch in the future ~ impressive 7 triple performance! ***Note: btw love the gold skates - Miki Ando has been wearing them for the past couple of yrs. now due to seeing Irina Slutskaya's.***
Amber Corwin - nice presentation & pretty good jumps......too bad about the two falls, especially the latter one........still, I'm impressed with her fight & determination. GOOOOOOOO Amber! (:^)
Yukina Ota - lyrical presentation......right up there with the best of them (aka Sasha Cohen & Michelle Kwan).......except tends to overuse those gorgeous arms IMHO. Too bad about the rather weak jumps & the fall. Still, like Sandhu, she dominated the field on the second mark. Well deserved win.
Angela Nikodinov - good job........liked the fight she had in coming on rather strong at the end........too bad about the mistakes at the beginning. Still, she's come a long way since her shoulder surgery last year. Has it all, just needs consistency.
All in all, a rather anti-climatic competition. It was more exciting following it on the net & reading others' comments, but reality was another matter. Nobody blew me away.......either in the jumps/technical department nor the presentation/artistry department......hoping for better come Euros. (:^)
Peace & Love, Nadine

Mountain Fire rages on as firefighters battle blaze on two fronts
Assemblyman Perez asks Governor to declare fire zone a state of emergency
MOUNTAIN CENTER, Calif. - Eastern winds caused the stubborn Mountain Fire to spread in multiple directions late Thursday afternoon. To the North, the fire continued significant progression in the Tahquitz meadows area, but was held at the ridge. The United States Forest Service says crews were working the edge of the fire and aircraft were aggressively applying water and retardant at the head of the fire throughout the day .
As weather conditions continue to change the fire remains active on the northwest and continues to threaten the community of Idyllwild. At the southern flank, firefighters continued to protect communities by ensuring that backing fire did not build enough heat to create dangerous smoke columns.
In a late night statement, the United States Forest Service says that firefighters will continue to build on the progress made on containment lines. The fire remains active in the North above Idyllwild and South near Trails End. As temperatures cool, crews plan to take advantage of cooler weather. Nighttime air operations will continue and have been very effective supporting crews working the line.
Residents also have been allowed to return to the Apple Canyon and Bonita Vista areas as the threat to that area has diminished.
On Thursday afternoon, authorities held a press conference to discuss the latest updates on the Mountain Fire. Here is what we learned:
- The fire is 2 miles from Palm Springs, but the city is not in any danger at this time.
- The fire was human-caused, but authorities say they do not know the exact cause.
- The fire is two-and-a-half miles from Idyllwild. The winds are coming from the east, and this along with the steep terrain between the town and the fire is what caused the evacuation.
- 11 air tankers, 17 helicopters and nearly 3,000 personnel assigned to fighting this fire.
- The Palm Springs Tram is not in danger at this time.
- All but 5 percent of the people of Idyllwild evacuated. There is no word on when they will implement their re-population plan.
- Incident Commander Jeanne Pincha-Tulley said these were the "bewitching hours," because this is when the large plume of smoke coming from the fire can drop embers almost anywhere in the area.
- She also said, "a 22,000 acre fire in California is not unusual, but a 22,000 acre fire in California this year, is very unusual."

Riverside County declared a local emergency because of the fire,meaning the county eligible to receive state and federal funds, should those officials deem it necessary. Late Thursday evening we learned that Assemblyman Manuel Perez called on Governor Brown to issue a State of Emergency for the area.
Since Tuesday, the Pérez district office team has been tracking this issue closely, including coordinating with Riverside County Board of Supervisors "Proclamation of Local Emergency."
"The state of emergency declaration is a much needed and important step to help rebuild and repair," said Pérez. "We need to make sure our communities gain access to the full spectrum of supports and resources available."
Meanwhile, The ``human caused'' wildfire burning through steep mountainous terrain in the San Bernardino National Forest was within sight of Palm Springs most of Wednesday, though a fire official assured that efforts to keep the 22,800-acre blaze away from densely populated areas were going well. The Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians said 6,000 of the 22,800 acres burned is on their reservation.Thursday aerials of the Mountain Fire
``We are putting in place a strategy to work our way east ... to contain the fire,'' Jeanne Pincha-Tulley, a chief for the U.S. Forest Service, said during an early afternoon briefing outside a command post set up to coordinate operations connected with the Mountain Fire.
``We've lost three permanent homes and three mobile homes, but we got everybody out safe and sound,'' Pincha-Tulley said. ``We've got hotshots, Cal Fire resources and quite a fleet of aircraft available. We're doing pretty well. We are the national priority right now.''
She said flames from the monster blaze ``sloped over onto the desert side'' and were within two miles of Palm Springs' western boundary. But there was no immediate threat to the urban center itself.
She said the fire was ``human caused,'' but was still under investigation.
According to Pincha-Tulley, about 3,000 personnel were working the fire, with the most headway along state Route 74, which was serving as a natural fire break on the Mountain Fire's southern flank.
The USFS spokeswoman expressed concerns about the blaze's towering columns spitting embers miles away from the main inferno, further complicating efforts to get it under control.
``We've got 17 helicopters and lots of retardant,'' Pincha-Tulley said. ``So far, so good.''
She said evacuation orders remain in place in the communities of Trails End, Idyllwild and Fern Valley.
``If the fire goes over the slopes and makes a major run (downhill), we wouldn't have much time to get people out of there,'' Pincha-Tulley told reporters. ``We asked everybody to leave last night so we can secure the area without worrying about folks getting in the way.''
Patrick Reitz, chief of the Idyllwild Fire Protection District, said officials are ``optimistic and trying to remain optimistic ... we can keep this on the other side of the ridge so it doesn't come into town.''
Evacuation orders issued Wednesday include Forest Service land and Mount San Jacinto State Park and the Trails End community at the north end of Morris Ranch Road near Garner Valley, according to the U.S. Forest Service. Riverside County sheriff's Capt. Scot Collins said law enforcement personnel are patrolling evacuated areas.
Some 4,100 residences in the evacuation zones, plus 100 commercial properties, are threatened by the blaze, said U.S. Forest Service spokesman John Miller.
The evacuation orders affected about 6,000 people living northwest of the fire zone and were prompted in part by a shift of direction in the prevailing winds, said Melody Lardner of the Forest Service.
Pine Cove, Mountain Center, western Idyllwild and Poppet Flats were not affected by the evacuation orders, which were issued by the Riverside County Sheriff's Department and the Idyllwild Fire Protection District.
Highway 243 was closed from Highway 74 to Interstate 10 in Banning, and Highway 74 was closed from Cranston Station in Hemet to Highway 371, according to Caltrans.
Smoke and ash, meanwhile, continued to bedevil the region. A smoke advisory issued by the South Coast Air Quality was in effect today for parts of the Coachella Valley, Hemet, the San Jacinto Valley, the Banning Pass area and the Anza area.
The Palm Springs Aerial Tramway was closed Wednesday morning, continuing until further notice.
A total of 228 engines, 10 fixed-wing aircraft, 17 helicopters, 21 water tenders and 15 bulldozers were deployed as of this morning. The cost of operations has reached $6.1 million, according to the Forest Service.
The Mountain Fire ignited in the vicinity of highways 74 and 243, south of Mountain Center, around 1:45 p.m. Monday and has destroyed 23 structures. It's burning at a ``rapid'' rate through timber and chaparral in very steep and rugged terrain, according to the Forest Service.
Late Monday afternoon, two dozen area homes were ordered evacuated -- 20 in the Bonita Vista housing community northeast of Lake Hemet and four at nearby Fleming Ranch -- as was the Living Free Animal Sanctuary in Bonita Vista.
Camp Ronald McDonald and Camp Joe Sherman were voluntarily evacuated because of concerns about air quality.
Evacuation centers have been opened at Hamilton High School in Anza and Hemet and Beaumont high schools, and evacuation centers for animals were set up at Lake Hemet Campground in Garner Valley and the San Jacinto Valley Animal Campus, according to the Forest Service.
The Pacific Crest Trail was closed from Highway 74 to Saddle Junction, as were all of the trails connected to the Pacific Crest Trail in the area. Hurkey Creek County Campground and hiking and mountain biking trails out of the campground and May Valley were also closed.
Large and Small animals can be brought to the San Jacinto Animal Shelter, 581 S. Grand Ave, San Jacinto CA.

Governments community engagement and communication
Original post made by CDSI Research, another community, on Nov 7, 2011
Today, a group of neighbors met with current and past elected officials for coffee discussion in Walnut Creek. The topic was communicating with governments including community engagement at governments meetings. The officials clearly prefer direct meetings with citizens, their groups and committees to best understand the requirements to remedy issues. The same officials suggested that government meetings of boards and councils are often too late to mitigate issues subject to decisions and/or advisories. The general recommendation is to seek meetings with elected officials and/or their staff early in any consideration of an issue subject to a board or council decision so governments can fully investigate such issues prior to board or council review, discussion and decisions.
The subject of government communication and community engagement is now being taken very seriously throughout your readership region and your ability to survey may be the opportunity to determine how important your story on such engagement and communication might be to your readers.

Dear Editor,
During news service interviews with county and local elected officials a structure for government communication emerged that suggested residents, groups and committees from communities arrange direct meetings with their elected official as early as issues appear so investigations of such issues can yield definition for decisions by departments, boards and councils. Various boards, councils, committees come late in the process as they prepare for decisions or advisories. At that point in the process of mitigation of issues, such boards, councils, commissions and committees need spokepeople from the communities and regions that can provide brief presentation that defines the majority's attitudes and specifies the decision sought by that majority.
It seems government communication and engagement is now defined and you might feature a reference story on your home page that provides the go-to contact information in communities and regions.

I dare you to name the names of these neighbors, and elected officials just exactly who were these people if you can not name them i suggest you retract your statement,and declare yourself a blow hard and a liar

Dear Editor,
It is the right and authority of neighborhood and community groups to identify their meetings with supervisors and other elected officials. AS you protect your sources and many sponsored commentators on your Express Forum, CDSI Research will respect the privacy of such groups supported by our research and advisory efforts.

Chris Cole
Chris Cole, who was born and raised in Pocatello, cares about what's happening around his home
Chris graduated from Idaho State University in May 2013 with a Bachelor of Arts in mass communication, emphasis in broadcast, with a minor in political science. He was trained to be a multimedia journalist, so essentially he can do it all.
He has worked behind the scenes for Idaho State University's public affairs show, "Idaho State of Mind," as well as in front of the camera. He also directed, worked video playback and worked camera for ISU football and basketball games. He work for The Bengal newspaper as production editor and did a short stint as online editor.
At one point, he was going to school full time and had five part-time positions. He still doesn't know how he survived.
In October 2012 he join the Local News 8 and Eyewitness News team as Pocatello's live truck operator and videographer. So, he was working full time and going to school full time until April, when he officially signed on as the evening reporter.
During his high school years at Century High School, he kept busy with outside activities, including serving on the Pocatello Mayor's Youth Forum, where he worked from secretary to vice president to president. He was also on the yearbook staff, going from staffer to co-editor to editor. He served as the secretary for Health Promises for Healthy Youth, which worked to bring a survey into local public schools. The survey assessed risk behaviors for kids, trying to find out what kids were most worried about, and what they were doing in their spare time.
Chris was also active in choir through all of his years in school, except for his senior year, where he instead was senator on the the Century Student Council. He was also honored to be one of two Idaho recipients of the Al Neuharth Free Spirit and Journalism Scholarship (the other being Elaine Washam, who also works as producer at our station). The two traveled to Washington, D.C., on an all-expense paid trip, where he got to meet Al Neuharth (founder of USA Today, who recently passed away). He still maintains connections with the other 101 recipients from all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
He is the youngest of the three children of Joseph and Mary - no, seriously. Cassy, his sister, is an avid animal lover, turning their parent's home into a bit of a squirrel sanctuary. Ray, his brother, is going to the Culinary Institute in Indianapolis, studying to be a chef. Chris also has numerous aunts, uncles and cousins in Pocatello and throughout the state, as well as spread over the United States.
Chris believes in working hard to get honest answers to legitimate questions that affect you. The issues that you care about are what he cares about, because they affect his home. Chris believes that love, for yourself, for your family and for others is one of the best ways to be a contributing member of your community, and that's what he hopes to be.
He's very interested in hearing your story ideas! Email him at firstname.lastname@example.com, or find him on Facebook.22446304

I can play corner...
all I need is a mustache and i'm good to go.
Mood: WOOF!
Webster's situation is similar to Osi's last year. You get 1 final year out of him and then you know he's gone. Didn't work out so well with Osi last year. Web is one of my favorite Giants but he was terrible last year. I believe in the adage to get rid of him a year too early rather than a year too late. Only problem is no replacement is on the horizon. I think he stays.
I was never a Webster fan.........HOWEVER.......this was the first year he did not play up to his potential. He isn't a shut-down corner...but Webster has proven time and time again that he can hold his own with top receivers. He's had great games, (albeit he does get burned), but to cut him, I think with his veteran status would be foolish. With Prince coming to his own, and Web on the other side, Hosley in waiting, I think '13 will be a great secondary year for the jints.
And Sam Madison was a safety.
I miss Red Hook
what year haven't we had at least 2 corners go down at the same time with injuries?
without webby we've got prince and hosely (i'm not holding my breath on TT at all).
after that, we'll have corners that only we rabid fans will know the names of.
we can't play in our division with a potential no name starting at corner.
If we get tough agian up front everything else will work itself out. We need to get big and strong at defensive talke and make sure our offensive line can hold it's own against anybody.

While I wait for my FAL to come (it's back ordered by several months), I'm deciding what red dot sight to mount on it. I'll be using the top cover with the built-in Pickatinny rail.
I've narrowed down to these:
:help2:Which of them would be the best? Figure CQB and medium range shooting. And once we narrow down to the best one -- a cheap alternative to that which will do the job (perhaps offerings from Ultimate Arms???).
- EOtech 552 Military Sight
- Aimpoint Comp M3

Have you ever purchased from PartSelect.com before?
Thank you for helping make our site better.
PartSelect Number PS11747692
This part works with the following brands: Whirlpool, Admiral, Estate, Inglis, KENMORE®, KitchenAid, Roper, Maytag, Crosley, Jenn-Air, Hardwick, Magic Chef, Amana, Caloric & Glenwood.
This part fixes the following symptoms:
I know that I have very hard water, but am reluctant to get a softener. I hope that changing the "guts" of the water delivery to my dishwasher will help...already replaced the filters which helped too... so far, it's a little better.Installation was a breeze. Took off the upper, middle and lower spray arms. Had to loosen screws in filter assembly to remove old manifold. Popped everything into place... had to scrape mineral deposits off clips that support manifold and upper spray arms.Easy...
Help other customers find the most helpful instructions.
Were these instructions helpful?
Hey I hope this helps someone. . I was quite frustrated with out little dishwasher. It almost seemed that the dishes would come out dirtier than when they went in. Turns out we have hard water and it did a number on the parts of the dishwasher. Luckily, the parts were cheap enough that I thought I would give em a try. Between that and something called "dishwasher magic" I had success! One thing I wished I did differently was that I should have purchased two (2) wash arm retainer clips. . . I re-used an old one but it would have been nice to have all new parts inside. Needless to say, our dishes now are super clean. I have 6 young kids so our dishwasher gets a real workout. I may have to purchase a water softener down the road but for now we'll roll the dice. Hope this helps!

The RainReserve Rain Diverter diverts rain water from your gutter downspout into any barrels or tanks. The RainReserve Rain Diverter automatically prevents barrel overflow, algae growth, large debris contamination, mosquitoe infestation, and critter access. These problems require constant maintenance without the RainReserve Rain Diverter Kit. The Rain Diverter can connect to virtually any open/closed rain barrel or water tank. With the RainReserve Rain Diverter Kit you get the flexibility to place the barrel away from the downspout to conceal and even add unlimited barrels/tanks to one downspout. Nitrogen rich rain water is easily accessible with the included High Flow Spigot.
You can harvest rain water for: washing your car, washing your pets, flushing toilets, and watering your garden.

I like to buy things once , so i try to research everything to death before getting it.

So far so good all 20 hives still going and one tree limb with bees that I got late Oct.
So far so good all 20 hives still going and one tree limb with bees that I got late Oct.
So far, 30 untreated hives (No treatments in 10 years) are alive and well. My winter has been like Solomon's - mild but not as mild as last year. So far, it looks like we're going to have another early spring.
I had to feed for the first time in years because we had a very long drought here in SW Missouri. Almost 5 weeks with no rain and 100+ degree days for more than a week at a time. So the only real nectar flow we had in this area was from March thru mid May. The bees had nothing to feed on during the summer and fall (except humming bird feeders ) So many hives lost weight during the summer. I don't like feeding because it helps me determine which lines of bees are the best at surviving, but this fall I had little choice. Only a small percentage would have been able to survive this drought. I am really worried about the feral hive's survival rates this winter.
Jeffrey Maddox
excellent jeff. doing anything special like using small cell foundation or bringing in vsh queens?
journaling the growth of a treatment free apiary started in 2010. 20+/- hives
I do let the bees draw a lot of natural comb though. So they get to decide what size of cell works best for them.
When I moved here from Indiana, I found the bees that did well in Indiana did not do as well here in SW Missouri. So I have concentrated on finding bees that do well here. I do a lot of removals and swarm collections. When I get a new set of bees from a removal, I treat them as a new genetic line since I do not know where they originated. I keep careful track of these lines and evaluate them over a two year period for production, conservation of stores, workability (gentleness), whether they fly earlier than other hives, swarming tendency, spring build up, etc......and of course survival. I am not concerned with exactly how they survive, as long as they do survive. I used to worry more about the "how" until I realized how much time I was spending on it. The bottom line for me is that they do well, not "how" they did well. I like to keep a diversity of genetic lines and survival mechanisms. Diverse populations are almost always more robust than uniform or semi-monotypic populations.
If a genetic line makes it through two winters and is doing well, then I consider them for possible breeding. The whole line must be doing well, not just one or two hives in the line. Then I select the best of those lines to put in the breeding yards. These are the ones I use to raise queens to sell in nucs. I usually end up with about 10 new lines a year. Only 4 or so make it to final evaluation. My process is still evolving so nothing is set in stone
I sell nucs and that has an effect on the mite population. So, I do not count mites because my data would be skewed anyway. Mostly, I am concerned with finding bees that do well despite the mites and SHB. Again, the important part to me is that they do survive, not exactly how. I have several hives between 4-10 years old now.
Jeffrey Maddox
great reply, thanks jeff.
journaling the growth of a treatment free apiary started in 2010. 20+/- hives
Lost a 2nd yr russian hybrid hive by october, my bad on that. I didnt do deep enough hive inspection ; they couldnt replace their queen and lost some combs to wax moths. Just lost a sunkist hive this week that did replace their brand new queen 2x last year and had no brood in october , was 4 frames of bees then. My 3 rd hive NWC's , are booming 2 deeps full of bees ( 2nd yr queen) , all looking good and healthy. This has been an average winter here, everyone knows the severe drought that went on in 2012 all over the midwest espically in SW Indiana
Lost one hive of 39 but I'm pretty sure it wasn't going to make it. Fought with it all summer between losing a queen early on, getting a drone laying queen, and then what I was assuming was a laying worker. Finally had it sorted out by adding endless frames of brood only to have fall set in and the hive die out with a lack of resources. The other 38 are still alive as of right now, the winter hasn't been harsh in comparison to most Wyoming winter but we've had several days at sub zero temperatures. All hives were left with 2 deeps of honey, some managed to end up with 3 (don't know why or how I missed them) and I have one nuc that is still going pretty strong. One hive that I was expecting to die because it was in a 10 frame deep that had only 6 frames drawn out was full of bees and no honey on my last walk around the apiary. In an attempt to help them make it through till winter I grabbed 2 frames of honey from the deadout and dropped them in, hopefully they're still doing well. Keep waiting for a 50 degree day to get out and do some manipulations but until then, best keep tossing back the Easy Street's
We the willing have done so much with so little for so long we can now do anything with nothing
Latest check, 23/23 still alive. The first week of February is the latest I've ever lost a hive here in Arkansas and maple pollen is already out. Also working on my website. New front page format, a couple new and expanded pages as well.
So far so good! Lost 1 out of 14. Thought it would be more as several of them were light and I should of feed more. Hope the rest make it through March!!
Lost two of last year's swarm hives.
Plant Hardiness Zone 6B, 5300 ft., Bee Zone A/B, Proverbs 24:13
Lost 3 out of 20 and and all of 14 Nucs still going strong
I have had a bad year. Lost 15 of 21 hives. Have been treatment free for 8 or 9 years. They seemed to have swindled until there were not enough bees in the cluster to keep warm. I did a check for varroa where I poured powdered sugar on them and counted the dropped mites on the sticky board. I only counted about 8 mites for each hive. I plan to send a sample of dead bees to Beltsville for testing. Maybe it was Nosema Ceranae? Any suggestions?
I'm very disheartened. I had planned to try raising queens and selling them and nucs this spring. I won't have enough bees and I also don't want to sell treatment free bees if they aren't.
At least you've been straight up about what happened. If I was near you and wanted to buy some survivor queens, I'd probably prefer to buy them from you.
"Thinking Inside The Box"
I lost 2 of 7 both were nucs, 1 has a laying worker i probably killed the queen, they hatch some queens out but there was no drones around at the time. I lost the other one yesturday, I put some syrup on it because Im trying to get them to start drawing out PF frames. Yesturday I saw that it was being robbed but couldnt do anything because I was on my way to work. Checked it last night when I got home and it was empty.
Please visit my page, Thanks
Heaflaw, there's no reason you can't raise queens and nucs off of what you have. With 2 hives I was able to produce 40 queens in one sitting via the grafting method. If you have 1 hive setup for rearing queens that leaves you 5 hives to pull frames of brood from to establish nucs. I think you could safely establish 15-20 mating nucs and allow those mating or mini nucs to grow into full sized 5 frame nucs and later in the season into a deep or double deep setup depending on the flows in your area and how much you would be willing to feed.
We the willing have done so much with so little for so long we can now do anything with nothing
I lost 1 of 9 and that one was sometime in early Jan. Lots of stores (nearly a full deep) and lots of bees, enough to cover the SBB with at least an inch of carcasses plus what was butt out in the combs, just wouldn't move to the top box. Others are looking good. The nuc I'm wintering benefitted from the demise of the other hive and got 5 full deep frames of honey, they were nearly out of stores. Ready for my first full season with bees!

The $100 (Bill) Question: Is Canada's Multiculturalism a Farce?
Rachel Décoste | Posted 10.17.2012 | Canada Politics
Read More: Bank of Canada, Parti Québécois, Multiculturalism, Xenophobia Canada, Asian Immigration Canada, Canada Asian Bill, Asia Canada, Visible Minority Canada, Bigotry Canada, Diversity Canada, Canada Asia, Immigration Canada, Racism Canada, Canada Politics News
The xenophobia from the Quebec election spilled over to the rest of Canada today when it was revealed that the Bank of Canada, our country's central bank, chose to carve out all hints of diversity from its $100 bank note after heeding to discriminatory judgements from focus groups. As Canadians born with names a rural Quebec mayor cannot pronounce and with facial features unfit for a Canadian bank note, it is high time Canada acknowledge its long legacy of divisiveness and address its ugly remnants in order to move forward to the pluralistic vision of our beloved country we have yet to fully achieve.

The workshop "The Role of the Media" was organized by the Advocacy Section of UNODC. The workshop has taken a closer look at the representation of human trafficking and its victims in the media. It was intended to generate a deeper understanding of the factors that have an impact on journalists' decisions when covering the topic, and to discuss the importance of fair and balanced media coverage of the issue, particularly its victims, in order to avoid them being re-victimized and suffer any undue hardship arising from media interventions in the future. The discussion has also showcased best media practices.

There are three basic Valentine's Day tactics: You can forget it and be forced to sleep outside with the large furry dog. Second, you can go out to dinner. Or, you can cook dinner in with a bottle of bubbly accompaniment.
I like bubbly for these events because it is festive, covers a range of styles and flavors, and shows that you aren't just some wannabe shithead that she picked up on the side of the road. The PBR of bubbles is Andre, located as usual on the bottom of your local grocer's shelf at a modest $6.49. This is usually the stuff that the winning team is seen spraying all over the locker room. It says right on the bottle "Serve very chilled" and they aren't kidding.
The big revolution in bubbles over the past 25 years has been in Spain. While Andre and its brethren come from large million-gallon tanks, the Spanish bubbles are created in the bottle for more flavor and complexity. The best news is that these only cost from $4 to $6 more a bottle and are versatile with food. Now comes the problem. The Freixenet, Codorniu, Cristalino, Don Conde, and brand names are the simple part. They are called Cava to indicate their bottle origin. What you do need to be aware of are the various levels of sweetness to these wines. If you are doing a cool paella or shrimp risotto dish, you want to ensure the word Brut is on the bottle. It is a drier bubbly better with seafood.
If you like fried food (calamari are always fabulous) then Spanish bubbles rock. They are just the right thing to have in the fridge when the neighbors invite you over for dinner at the last minute and you need to bring over something cool. Check for the label designation of X-Dry. Don't be fooled, as it is actually sweeter than Brut and when truffles appear for Valentine's Day this is the best bet.
Spain doesn't have the only mid-range sparklers out there. The Loire Valley French are creamier. Henry Varnay Blanc de Blancs (chardonnay) Brut $12 is a perfect combo with a little cheese opener (say, Manchego), or in a little festive mimosa just to say, "Hi, I didn't forget Valentine's Day so please don't kill me."
The big boy of bubbles is French Champagne, very fitting with Maine lobster. This is the height of at home pampering. The succulent richness of the meat dances with the pinpoint flavors of a $60 Veuve Cliquot. There are little champagne brands out there that are both values and high in quality. If you have time, go seek and find. They are worth it.
The main thing is don't forget your loved one this Valentine's Day. You can be creative, munch down, and don't have to sack out with the dog. How can you beat that?

Based off the air-cooled Ducati 1100cc motor, NCR Corse has made a track bike worthy of multiple droolings. Named the Millona, the bike tips the scales at 275lbs, and puts out 121hp in its 1200cc form (at 1100cc the bike makes 116hp).
It is with a heavy heart that we report the passing of Nicky Hayden today, the American motorcycle racer finally succumbing to the injuries he sustained on Wednesday, at 7:09 PM CEST. The former-MotoGP Champion was struck by a car, while he was training on his bicycle near the Rimini coast. After the incident, Hayden was ultimately treated at the trauma center at the Bufalini Hospital in Cesena, where he later passed away. While motorcycle fans around the world have been hoping for good news throughout this past weekend, and looking for signs that Nicky's condition would improve, today Nicky's race ended, with his family and friends at his side.
Daniel Laine Kyle of Carmel-by-the-Sea, California – known best for his speed shop, Kyle Racing – pleaded guilty to defrauding the US government earlier this week, after it was found that Kyle had been hiding cash-based purchases made at this business. Dan Kyle Racing is known best for being the largest Öhlins suspension dealership in the United States (if not the world), as the company offered aggressive pricing on the Swedish-born suspension, and was one of the first Öhlins dealers with an online presence in the early days of the internet. According to the plea agreement made between Kyle and the US Attorney's Office, Kyle pleaded guilty to tax fraud and structuring currency transactions in order to avoid the reporting requirements in the US Tax Code.
The focus for electric motorcycles at the Isle of Man TT may center around Team Mugen's dual entry with John McGuinness and Guy Martin, but one should not overlook this very attractive entry from Belgium. Saroléa is back for the 2017 Isle of Man TT, continuing with its state-of-the-art carbon fiber chassis goodness and retro fairing design. On board will once again be Dean Harrison, who will be gunning for a podium-finish on the 2017 Saroléa SP7. If looks alone could get you across the finish line, then Saroléa would have our vote. The Belgians have always been in the running for a strong result though, finishing 4th in 2014 and 5th in 2015. Maybe this year will be "their year" at the TT.
Did you just feel that? That movement was a tectonic shift in the motorcycle landscape, as India just surpassed China as the world's largest market for two-wheel vehicles. Just how big is the Indian motorcycle market? Last year, over 17.7 million motorcycles were sold in India. That is over 48,000 motorcycles sold…each day. Compared to China, that is a margin of roughly one million motorcycles per year (16.8 million units sold last year). India has seen a sharp rise in the sales of two-wheelers within its borders over the seven years, growing over 32% during that timeframe. Transportation in general has been growing in India, but that growth has been fueled by the country's two-wheeler market.
I am really excited about the Suzuki brand right now. Out of the four Japanese motorcycle manufacturers, the recession affected Suzuki the most, probably more than many people realize, but the Hamamatsu brand is poised to bring out some exciting machines in the coming few years. Could we finally see a turbocharged Suzuki this year though? The rumor mill is pointing to yes…but just pointing, and the reason is because of patents. Much of this internet rumors stems from a flood of patents that have been found, where Suzuki is patenting technology related to turbo-powered engines in motorcycles, or because of other patents that make reference or inference to being part of a turbocharged motorcycle.
I woke up this morning to a message from a colleague, with a link to a story that linked Royal Enfield to buying Ducati Motor Holding. The story was from a fairly reliable news publication, but the headline read "Royal Enfield Might Consider Buying Ducati Pretty Soon" – the grammarist in me cringed.* "Might consider" is the most nebulous phrase in the English language. Let's think about that phrase for a moment, as it literally means that you are considering the possibility of considering something. Don't get me started on the timeliness of "Pretty Soon" in the news realm, as well. Metaphysics and meaningless headlines aside, for our purposes this narrative devolves further in that this story offers nothing new, beyond the story that Reuters published two weeks ago, which set off alarms in the motorcycle industry around the world.
Spy photos from Austria have caught KTM testing a rather interesting motorcycle – one that does not run on a petroleum-based fuel, but rather it has an electric drivetrain at its core. This isn't the first time that KTM has experimented with an electric motorcycle, of course, with the KTM Freeride E being available in select markets. However, the machine seen here is a pretty big step forward for the Austrian brand, from its modest electric dirt bike. Using the chassis of a KTM 390 Duke to house the battery, inverter, and motor, KTM's electric street bike (we'll call it the KTM E-Duke for now) looks like a rolling mess, but is what you would expect from a project in its early stages of development.
I am a solid Star Wars geek, but not in the dress-up and go to a convention sort of way – if you know what I mean. But, this new lid from HJC might have me singing a different tune, as it mimics Luke Skywalker's X-Wing "Red 5" fighter helmet, in a DOT legal ¾ helmet format. That's just cool…in a really un-cool sort of way. Based off the budget-friendly HJC IS-5 helmet, this Luke Skywalker replica will cost roughly $180 when it comes out (at a date still to be determined). Additionally, 10 versions of the lid will be signed by Mark Hamill, and auctioned for charity (UNICEF and the Starlight Children's Foundation), if your geekdom takes you in such a direction (and you have a four-figure wallet).
Assen had been earmarked as a key round for Honda in its search for competitiveness in WorldSBK. It passed with more confirmation that the team's struggles will continue. Nine points were all that Nicky Hayden had to show for himself at the end of a trying weekend at the TT Circuit of Assen. The Honda rider was able to show some signs of improved competitiveness at times during the weekend, but overall the same flaws of the Honda Fireblade have been exposed once again. Reliability and inability to bring competitive upgrades to the table cost Hayden dearly at Assen. The week before the Dutch round, the team tested a new engine specification in Portimao and the American came away disappointed with a lack of progress.
"Danny is probably the most talented rider I have ever worked with," Peter Bom, Danny Kent's former crew chief at Kiefer told me several times last year. Bom has seen plenty of talent in his time: he also worked with Stefan Bradl at Kiefer, Chris Vermeulen in World Supersport and World Superbikes, Cal Crutchlow in World Supersport. World champions all, and to this tally he added Danny Kent. Less than a year after helping him win the Moto3 world championship, Danny Kent asked the Kiefer team for a new crew chief, abandoning his collaboration with Peter Bom. Kent felt that Bom had been slow to pick up on the changes in the Moto2 class during Bom's three years in Moto3. Stefan Kiefer obliged, and Kent started the season with a new crew chief and a Suter Moto2 chassis.

UTSA First-Year Faculty: Assistant Professor Michael Moyer
By Lydia Fletcher
Special Projects Writer, B.A., '07
(Sept. 25, 2007)--Michael Moyer, assistant professor of counseling in the College of Education and Human Development, came to UTSA one year ago from Texas A&M University, Corpus Christi.

Article tools
LF: How long have you been at UTSA, and where did you come from?
MM: I've been here since August last year. I just finished my first full year. And my first summer, I taught during the summer as well. I came from Corpus Christi. I graduated with my doctorate in December 2005 from Texas A&M Corpus Christi.
LF: What kind of research do you do?
MM: My main area of interest is school counseling, and on top of that I work with self-mutilation, self-injury and adolescents, and that is kind of my main focus. My other areas are legal and ethical issues, ethics, school counseling and self-injury, but mainly working with adolescents and juveniles.
LF: What kinds of courses are you teaching or developing here at UTSA?
MM: I have been lucky enough to teach the introduction to school counseling. I just finished up the legal and ethical issues in counseling this summer, and I'm really excited to teach practicum, COU 5683, this fall, along with the school counseling.
I've been lucky enough the first two semesters to get to choose what I wanted to teach, which was Introduction to School Counseling -- which was incredible. I got to try to develop the course, make it more exciting, more beneficial to the students. And I really wanted to teach ethics and I got to do that this summer. And then I get students as they're leaving now with the practicum in the fall.
LF: Do you want to try to develop any courses about your main area of research in the future?
MM: I'd like to see more courses devoted strictly to school counseling. If that's in the future, I'd love to see that. But, in the counseling department, we're going through an accreditation process right now to try and get our counseling programs accredited. We have the introduction to school counseling and all the other courses kind of infuse the curriculum together. I would like to see some more.
LF: How are you enjoying teaching at UTSA?
MM: I love it. It's the greatest thing I've ever done. How do I explain this? You get to work with everyday topics and discussions that you're interested in. I get to read, I get to research things every day that fascinate me, and then I get to share those with other people. It's the most incredible thing I've ever done.
LF: How do you like the students here?
MM: Being a first-time faculty member, at first it was a little intimidating. What do I have to share with 20 or 30 students? But we all learn, and my job is to make information available so they can learn.
LF: What are your hobbies outside of UTSA?
MM: I don't know if it's a hobby, but I have a nine-month-old baby girl at home, so I definitely enjoy spending time with her, being a first-time father. Other than that I love running. I play tennis a lot -- well, I used to play tennis a lot, and I'm trying to get back into it. I absolutely love golf.
LF: How long have you played golf?
MM: Only about eight years. I played tennis for 20 years, and then picked up golf as a way to get away from tennis -- and now I can't get away from golf. I absolutely love it.

Just wondering how many of you out there run singles? Most of my hives are 1 1/2 story right now.
Just wondering how many of you out there run singles? Most of my hives are 1 1/2 story right now.
Gulf Shores, AL
I run some singles with 11 1/4" deep frames, ten and twelves.
Ran into a guy from Canada a couple years ago who runs 5000 hives - all singles - and swears by it. he says a large number of Canadians run bees in singles and more are changing every year. I guess bees jump right through a queen excluder with only one box beneath. Same honey, less equipment. just pump 'em full of syrup in the fall (he feeds 10 gallons per hive in the open), wrap 'em and you're good to go for wintner. I asked about swarming problems in the spring and they just shake bees off to make packages to prevent mass swarming. It was very interesting.
I tried it the following spring on about 40 hives. Worked great. Later that summer I let them fill up 2 boxes to match the rest of my outfit. It'd probably work here too, year around, if one was so inclined.
-Rob Bliss
I run singles for honey production, because I want to produce honey. Like everything we do their is a trade off. With singles you need to be ready to feed right after pulling the honey off, 3 days max for internal feeders or you can barrel feed depending on weather. I find that the bees put all the honey above the excluder and will have 6 to 9 frames of brood and a lot of bees that time of year.
We thought about running singles just cuz you can get so many more on the truck but decided there was not enough leeway bees vs feed, unless one is able to babysit them all winter. There just seems like too fine a line between having room for brood and starvation. We send most out in a story and a half now and it works fine.

Pelosi caves to Stupak
posted at 8:25 am on November 7, 2009 by Ed Morrissey
How desperate has Nancy Pelosi become for enough votes to pass her ObamaCare proposal this weekend? She has reversed course and given Bart Stupak (D-MI) a floor vote on his amendment to ban federal abortion funding in the bill. Pelosi had attempted to use another amendment to undermine Stupak's support and get enough votes to keep from a humiliating loss:
House Democratic leaders will allow an up-or-down vote on an amendment blocking any money in its healthcare overhaul from funding abortions, risking the votes of members who support abortion rights.
Anti-abortion Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.) had told a bleary-eyed Rules committee panel that a deal struck earlier in the day to move forward on the issue was off.
"There was some compromise language from different proposals that we thought would be satisfactory, our understanding was that we had an agreement. Two hours later it was not an agreement," Stupak said as the clock neared 1 a.m. Saturday.
That sounds like bad news, in one sense. Stupak's coalition of pro-life Democrats could have kept Pelosi's bill from passing. Indeed, Stupak had threatened to work with Republicans on a motion to recommit, which would have killed the bill. If Stupak gets his vote, he may wind up supporting the bill even if he loses and the bill remains with its current language. Even if Stupak remains firm, members of his coalition may split after an up-or-down vote.
However, Stupak will almost certainly get the entire Republican caucus to support him, and perhaps more Democrats than the 40 Stupak already has. If the amendment passes, Pelosi may have an entirely different problem:
Liberals on the committee threatened to vote against the final healthcare bill if it included Stupak's language, warning that it would be a return to the days of back-alley abortions.
"I forsee a return to the dark ages," said Alcee Hastings (D-Fla.). "I'm 73, I've seen these dark things, they use these coat hangers and die."
That's a remarkable statement — since we don't use federal funds now to pay for abortions. Stupak's amendment just maintains the status quo; it doesn't actually change anything. The coat-hanger argument has always been a red herring anyway, but in this instance it's especially dishonest … unless Hastings et al see this bill as a complete government takeover of the health-care system, which it will definitely produce sooner or later.
If Pelosi loses the progressives over the ban on abortion funding, what would she have left? The Blue Dogs won't rescue this bill, not after this week's elections and the nosedive in polling for ObamaCare, and especially not after the latest unemployment numbers.
Pass the popcorn. This should be interesting, and still scary enough to keep pulse rates high.

text: Well riddle me this, I just did a sugar roll and found I have a terrible mite infestation in my overwintered hives. I know I should have found this out a monthy ago, but I didn't. They are doubles and pretty well stuffed with honey. About four frames with sizeable amount of sealed brood and a frame or two uncapped and winding down for the season fast. I need to knock the mite load down now and don't think I should wait til they are broodless to drizzle Oxalic. I am leaning toward Apistan or Api life var. I have been experimenting with various controls that don't seem to have done the job. The bees have been on 4.9 mm frames since I got them as nucs April 2011. I have sacrificed drone brood frames. They had a brood break where I took a nuc from them last spring and made them raise a new queen. Last spring I fed Oil of Thyme and Oregano for a brood cycle with Lemon grass oil to speed their taking it while raising brood. Must have just been a fine year for mites. What now?

I just watched a you tube video of her 14-jump combo from last weekend's Dreams on Ice, here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mp7RNifuNTo&NR
The video was taken secretly where everyone was stopped shooting. Although someone wrote the youtube URL in FSU, FSU administrator deleted the URL because it was contrary to the FSU Privacy Statement and Rules.
I don't know how the video should be dealt with.

Wow! I wonder what possessed her to do a 14 jump combo! Who was the other girl in black?
Thanks for sharing!

Circular leaps in Dance are quite common. Shizuka did too many but all praise to her for showing them off.
Looks like they were just taking bows at the end of the show & this was a little encore she did for fun. It wasn't in a program or anything. Skaters often do this in practice, tack on jump after jump to see how many they can do & keep it under control. They do it a lot with loop jumps.
I was getting tired just watching her =
You just gotta love Shizuka. Shes a real crowd pleaser.
They weren't just circular leaps, they were a 3toe, followed by twelve 2toes and a 2loop! lol - amazing.Originally Posted by Joesitz
Actually, it was:Originally Posted by icenut84
Triple Toe
2x - Double Toe
10x - Single Toe
Single Looop
I don't see the point of doing that many single jumps in a row....
Isn't there a Zayak rule violation? or does the Zayak rule not apply to doubles?Originally Posted by Mathman
The Zayak rule only applies to tripples and higher (except in pairs where it applies to double axles). This jump combination wouldn't count because it has more than three jumps. A lot more.Originally Posted by attyfan
I totally thought this thread would be a joke! I was like no way she did that

You want to use the one-step GMM estimator using the -onestep- option

The Holy City attracted religious orders and individuals from all corners of the world who established churches, hospitals, schools, and philanthropies outside the confines of the Old City walls.
Start your walk at the (1) Russian Compound, built by the Russian Orthodox Church (7 Kheshin Street) in the mid-19th century and part of which still belongs to Russia. Flanking the domed church are (2) pilgrims quarters today serving as Israeli police and justice facilities. The excavation across the street has a partially formed (3) pillar still in the ground. Archeologists believe that the pillar was part of Herod's temple.
With your back to the church, walk right, past the northern gate of the compound onto Monbaz Street, and then left onto Heleni Hamalka Street. A few steps down on your right is the entrance to the beautiful courtyard of (4) Beit Sergei (13 Heleni Hamalka Street). This turreted, medieval-style building was built in honor of Prince Sergei Romanoff's pilgrimage. Notice the two outhouse towers constructed for the royal party's convenience.
Return to Monbaz Street and continue left until you reach a roundabout. The rundown two-story building with a tasty Yemenite falafel shop and Bulgarian pastry store was once home to the American consulate.
Bear left into Hanevi'im (The Prophets) Street. On your left is the Rothschild Hospital building, the first medical facility built outside the city walls, now the grounds of Hadassah College. Continue and make a right turn into a flowering, shaded lane leading to the (5) Ethiopian Church (10 Ethiopia Road). The church was erected in memory of the queen of Sheba's biblical visit to King Solomon. There are no set visiting hours, but the yard is usually open.
After resting in the courtyard, return to Hanevi'im Street, turn right and walk past (6) Tabor House (58 Hanevi'im Street) built by German missionary and self-taught Jerusalem architect Conrad Schick. Peek into the grounds of number 64, home to visiting English painter William Holman Hunt.
As you continue down Hanevi'im, the sidewalk widens. Soon after, you'll reach the intersection of Hanevi'im and Strauss Streets. Across to the left is a hospital constructed in the early 19th century, now (7) Bikur Cholim Hospital (5 Strauss Street). Turn right, up the hill on Strauss Street until the next traffic light, then right again onto (8) Mea Shearim Street where you will enter the strict world of the ultra Orthodox Jewish community.
On your right are the houses of Mea Shearim, planned by Conrad Schick; on your left the houses known as the (9) Ungarim (Hungarian) Quarters, built in the 1880s and '90s. Individuals or small groups can visit the inner courtyards but no photography is allowed.
Continue along Mea Shearim for about a half-mile to where the street ends at Shivtei Yisrael Street. On your left is the (10) Romanian Orthodox Church (46 Shivtei Yisrael Street) built in 1936. On the right is the former Italian hospital building, now the (11) Israeli Education Ministry (34 Shivtei Yisrael Street). Proceed down Shivtei Yisrael Street until you return to the Russian Compound.
