Press Report: The Led Zeppelin concert at the showgrounds last Sunday must rate as one of the best ever held in Sydney - but, if the crowd had not stormed the fences, it could have been the worst.
The official attendence figure was 27,000 but senior police officers at the concert estimated the crowd at "at least 30,000". According to showground officials the three stands used last Sunday have a maximum capacity of 25,000 - so whatever way you look at it the ground was dangerously overcrowded.
Despite the fact that there were no seats left at mid-day and no standing room by 1.30pm., people were still coming through the gates at 2.30pm. The overcrowding that existed before the fences were stormed must never be allowed to occur again because next time someone could be killed in the crush. Once capacity is reached the gates should be closed. David D. Bryant The Sun-Herald, 5 March 1972, p. 109.

Feb '72 Sydney Showground Led Zeppelin Concert
I had the pleasure of attending this concert with co-workers Phil Grieg and Paul Quanchie. None of us had ever seen a PA system that big before. The show started with the Imigrant Song and the memory of that riff and Page's scream through that PA still gives me goosebumps today 27 years later.
Although the mix wasn't the best for about 24 bars, when it kicked in, it was like listening to a brand new Zeppelin album through a brand new stereo.
The musicianship of all four was amazing. We'd waited for what seemed like an enternity to see them live, after becoming Zep fans from the first album. They'd just released album 4 and were at the height of their powers. Robert Plant was still very toned in the stomach (unlike the later movie which showed quite a paunch) but Jimmy Page looked quite frail/pale. Still it didn't stop him playing like the virtuoso that he is.
To this day, still the best concert I've ever attended.

Reviews of this property
The flat was in the center of Sofia, Metro only 40 meters away! Nice renter, clean and comfortable apartement.
We enjoyed our stay in the studio of Alexander. The apartment is very nice, clean and generous. It is also located near to the city-center, so that we could made our sightseeings by foot.
Alexander is a very friendly and wellcomming person. He recommended us a lot of things to do in Sophia. It was a wonderful time for us. Thanks a lot.
Ivo (the brother of Alexander) kindly welcomed us to the apartment. He was really helpful and gave us great advice. The apartment is what you expect: it is beautiful and has everything you need to have a pleasant stay. The only thing which was a bit weird was the smell in the bathroom. Nonetheless, I recommend the apartment and I would definitely go back.
Die Fotos lügen nicht - es ist wirklich ein sehr geschmackvoll und gemütlich eingerichtetes Apartment! Wir fühlten uns schnell sehr wohl, und mit Wimdu und Alexander lief alles sehr unkompliziert. Einzig die Dusche hat etwas gestunken - mit Lüften der Wohnung war dies aber zu beheben. Ganz in der Nähe hats eine Metrostation und eine Alleestrasse zum Bummeln.
Wir können dieses Bijou wärmstens empfehlen!
L'appartement est magnifiquement arrangé , on se sent comme chez soi !
Très calme et près du centre ville ; il ne faut pas se fier à l'immeuble qui est vieux ainsi que l'escalier en pierre pour monter au 5 ème étage mais il y a un ascenseur , lui aussi très vieux mais qui fonctionne très bien si on suit les instructions d'Alexander .
On a passé un très bon moment chez Alexander .

I agree with you. Kenya is trash. anyone who messes with a married man is disgusting. She's got NO business being on the show. I cant believe she said she didn't need to look far for a husband because Apollo likes to stray. I mean, If you're going to be dirty at least keep your home wrecking desires secret… don't tell the whole world you like married men. She is so jealous of all the other wives cause they're actually married and have business being on the show. She's lower than the lowest. Porsha was pushed to her limit and she's human like the rest of us….well, except for that monster Kenya. I know I wont watch if they kick Porsha off. It wouldn't be fair and I can't bare to watch Kenya for another season.

Hey guys and gals a few months back I purchased a SgtFang bucket as the start of my planned rotj/se Fett. I finally got some time to get started and I snapped a bunch of pictures with my new camera. I know this has been done a hundred times before but I know many of you, like me, love watching progress threads so here goes.
Here's my work space not exactly a workshop but it works:
Here's the tools that I used to start the clean up of my helmet:
This set of Hobby Files is one of the best things that I purchased. It comes with a 2 flat files 1 square file, 1 round file, 1 semi-elliptical, and 1 fully elliptical. You can find them at Home Depot in the tools section, I highly recommend them:
Remember kids always where your saftey gear:
I made my first cuts use my dremel with a carbon fiber reinforced cutting discs. I went really rough on my first cuts as I was terrified of screwing up. I think it was a good idea to do trimming of large areas and then cleaning up the closer details.
I then scored the thinner more brittle resin that was left over with my utility knife and was able to just snap it off with my hands:
I then moved to the top of the t-visor and again cut it out roughly:
Once the rough cuts where done I got a little bit bolder with my cutting wheel and started cutting some of the excess resin out of the visor:
I used a combination of the cutting wheel and a sanding drum to do more of the clean up.
I then decided to switch to a normal Dremel cutting bit to clean out the narrower parts of the top of the T. I figured it would give me more control and allow me to clean up the detail easier. It worked out ok but unfortunately it got away from me a few times and left me with some areas that needed to be fixed. After the area was mostly cleaned I went back with my hobby files and cleaned the narrower areas up.
Screw up 1:
Screw up 2:
After the Visor was cleaned out I decided to start putting filler on the bucket. Here's the raw filler after it being put on the bucket. It's squadron white.
I was also able to use the filler to fix the areas that I had screwed up:
After 2 coats of filler I am pretty pleased with how the raised areas are looking:
Here's the bucket almost done with the prep work. All that's left is the (gulp) ketslots. My plan for those is to do a rough cut with the dremel and then finish the clean up with the hobby files.
Aside from the ketslots I also need to even out the width of the visor opening from the inside of the bucket so that the tvisor will sit correctly.
I'll add more pics as I have time to update this. It may be a while due to the fact I have to move out of my apartment soon.

Reviews of this property
The apartment is well located and is nice.
L'appartement est bien situé et est agréable.
The apartment is very well located on a pedestrian street. It is super functional, but small for 6 people. Our hosts, Andrew & Caroline are very friendly and caregivers. Unfortunately for us, there was work in the building, which made a lot of dust and noise in the morning. But we return to it at any time.
L'appartement est très bien situé sur une rue piétonnière. Celui-ci est super fonctionnel, mais petit pour 6 personnes. Nos hôtes, André & Caroline sont très sympathiques et aidants. Malheureusement pour nous, il y avait des travaux dans l'édifice, ce qui faisaient énormément de poussière et le matin du bruit. Mais nous retournerions à celui-ci en tout temps.
Super weekend nice apartment in the heart of Paris in a lively neighborhood. Home impeccable recommendable
Super week end appart agréable en plein cœur de Paris dans un quartier vivant .
Accueil impeccable
À recommander
The flat is very spacious and nicely located in the centre, maybe not the cleanest but for that price definitely worth it.
What has concerned me is that before the booking i have clearly asked for wi-fi connection and an invoice, both needed for work. I had no wi-fi, very poor mobile connection, the television was not working and as an invoice I received "an email" stating the wrong amount!!!
Nevertheless if you need a good located flat for a short break i would still recommend it.
I'm not being picky or anything but I feel that for the money I paid only the location was great while the accommodation itself was below any standards, mainly the bedsheets and all the things that came with it were dirty and crumbled . We were also forced to pay 20e per day for cleaning as we booked the trip, this is all fiction as there was no cleaning done during our stay there, we essentially paid 60e for nothing.
Beautifully furnished apartment near the Seine. Many attractions are within walking distance. The owners are very friendly. There was a slight misunderstanding because of our arrival, but was not that bad.
Schön eingerichtete Wohnung in der Nähe der Seine. Viele Attraktionen sind zu Fuß erreichbar. Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich. Es gab ein kleines Missverständnis wegen unserer Ankunftszeit, war aber nicht weiter schlimm.
El apartamento tiene parte positiva y negativa
1 situación muy buena
2 el piso es como en las fotos
1 la anfitriona no contestaba a mails ni whats up. Comunicación previa nula. Tras mucho insistir contesto al teléfono.
2 el piso no estaba demasiado limpio
3 las toallas pequeñas y olían a humedad
4 las sabanas olían a humedad
5 el piso en general olía a humedad
Si cuidara mas la limpieza , la ventilación y cambiara las toallas seria un apartamento perfecto.
L'appartamento è situato in posizione eccezionale, vicinissimo a Notre Dame, Centro Pompidou ed altre mete che si raggiungono facilmente a piedi. Gli elettrodomestici, a parte la televisione (a cui comunque non eravamo interessati), erano tutti ben funzionanti (lavatrice, lavastoviglie, aspirapolvere). La casa è un po' piccola per cinque persone e rumorosa, dato il continuo passaggio di persone sulla strada sottostante (del resto era normale che fosse rumorosa, data la posizione centrale). La doccia è una sola, benché sul sito si parli di due docce. Scadente la pulizia dell'alloggio e delle lenzuola, quantomeno per i nostri standard. Nel complesso è stato comunque un piacevole soggiorno.

So who will go to World, Euro ?? Sotnikova is still not age eligible right??
So who will go to World, Euro ?? Sotnikova is still not age eligible right??
Polina S, Polina A, Roza S. and Anna O (out for the season) will be eligible in 2011-2012.
Sotnikova and Tuktamysheva will be of age for the 2012-2013 season. And by the skin of her teeth (her 15th birthday is on June 2013), Lipnitskaya will eliglbe for 2013-2014, just in time for Sochi!
For Euros, it's been confirmed to be Leonova and Makarova. Biryukova is the alternate. It's all but confirmed to be the same for Worlds, unless Alena or Ksenia get injured, since it's not a situation where they'd change the teams (like the Japanese and 4CC/Worlds where Akiko Suzuki will go to 4CC and Kanako Murakami replaces her on the Worlds team, I believe).
For Junior Worlds, at this point, I'd say it's Sotnikova and Tuktamysheva easily based on both the Senior Nationals and the JGP/JGPF placements. The 3rd might be Biryukova since she probably won't get to Worlds unfortunately. It'd probably more likely be Polina Shelepen or Polina Agafonova, based on previous results. Junior Nationals will be the deciding factor. If Agafonova repeats her victory from last year, it'll be her more likely than not. If she medals (but not gold) and Shelepen wins, it may be Shelepen that gets the spot instead. If both medal but don't win, it'll be hard to pick. Sheveleva may have a chance too.
I wish Lipnitskaya was a year older so she could go. But hey, she'll be amazing to see on the JGP next year.
Rosa Sheveleva is definitely a contender for the third JW spot - she had the 5th best LP, ahead of Makarova, Biryukova, Shelepen and Agafonova. Unfortunately, her SP wasn't great, but when she's on, she can really contend with the others. She has nice basics and really excellent jumping technique. Her 3Lz is HUGE.
The Russian Federation asked the ISU about the age limit last year because of Adelina - but she was not allowed to skate and had to wait for this season. One day - that is really hard!

We paint our homes inside and out...and I certainly hope it is safe for my family to be in a painted house....so my opinion is it will not hurt my insects either.
The boxes I built with it two years ago still look good, and I still haven't painted some of them. :scratch:
I have seen plywood boxes that didn't last 5 years and wooden board boxes that have lasted decades.
perhaps....I will let you know more after a few more years
Well there are pros and cons of plywood. It is a little harder on tools in my opinion, but about 1/4 the cost of say hickory boards. I take the hint of using TB3 on the edges, its good advice. I like the bare wood look, is why I favor urethane for the outside. for the inside, I think bare sanded wood is fine, in central New Mexico we have a dry climate so I am not too worried about the wood getting wet and rotting. I am more worried that the bees won't thrive in the climate. The hive will be located in pine forest so there should be plenty of propolis for the bees to work with. this hive wont get bees until after the last frost danger in late May. that should give it time to air out.
If you ever think that in the future you might want to get your apiary to be "certified" using the Certified Naturally Grown guidelines found here: http://www.naturallygrown.org/programs/apiary-standards
then you do not want to paint the interior of your hive. The CNG standards are almost impossible for someone like me to meet in an urban situation.
thanks to some of you, i got a gallon of acrylic latex exterior oops for 7 bucks and am now happily painting the outsides only.
with plywood painting or sealing and painting the top and bottom edges would be a real good idea.
One coat of tb3 on the edges, and two coats of paint on the outside and all edges. now hard at work on building frames. thanks everyone for very good advice.
paint the outside only. the bees will seal the inside for themselves.
exterior 'oops' paint is fine. we do a few coats and heavily on the joints/end grain.
What if you had someone paint the box for you and gave poor instructions.....?
Brand new box painted inside and out because I wasn't clear. Can I use it or just get a new one?
>about 40 or 50 years ago usda recommended that the insides be painted
yes, with lead paint... that was a GREAT idea... ;)

Burundi journalists march to support Ruvakuki
At 8 o'clock Tuesday morning roughly 50 Burundian journalists silently marched around the courthouses in the capital, Bujumbura, and the offices of the justice minister, protesting the imprisonment of their colleague, Hassan Ruvakuki.
"They sentenced him to three years without following the law," said Patrick Nduwimana, one of the protest organizers and the interim director of local private radio station Bonesha FM. A week earlier, on Tuesday, January 8, an appeals court in Burundi had sentenced Ruvakuki, a reporter for Bonesha FM and the French government-backed Radio France Internationale, to three years imprisonment for "working with a criminal group."

Jets: Tim Tebow asked out of Wildcat according to sources
EAST RUTHERFORD — The locker-room nameplates were removed one by one following the Jets' last home game until only the quarterback stalls still were identified.
And as Mark Sanchez and Tim Tebow's names were removed from above their lockers, it was fair to question if the nameplates would be seen again at MetLife Stadium.
Sanchez, the displaced starter, and Tebow, the seldom-used Wildcat specialist/punt protector who reportedly is on his way to the Jaguars next season, were active as Greg McElroy absorbed 11 sacks in the Jets' 27-17 loss to the Chargers on Sunday.
But neither played a down — Sanchez said it felt like a preseason game to him — and Tebow's season of indignity continued when he watched from the sideline as wide receiver Jeremy Kerley completed a pass out of the Wildcat and running back Shonn Greene took direct snaps.
However, ESPNNewYork.com, citing multiple unnamed sources, reported Tebow, so frustrated that McElroy was given the start, asked the coaching staff early in the week not to be included in the Wildcat. Coach Rex Ryan said after Sunday's loss McElroy also would start the season finale at Buffalo.
"You know, not sure," said Tebow when asked why he was active if he wasn't going to run the Wildcat. "You just try to handle every situation as best you can."
Meanwhile, Sanchez stood next to Ryan charting plays and wearing his helmet during every offensive series to listen to the play calls and be ready in case he was needed.
Like Tebow, his postgame comments included the strong opinion he should be a starter; if not with the Jets, then somewhere.
"I feel like I'm a starting quarterback in the NFL," Sanchez said. "I know I've done it at the highest level under the toughest kind of pressure and scrutiny in the playoffs and regular season. I know I can do it. I just wish I would have played a little better this year.
"They know that I want to play," Sanchez added of the Jets. "It's not a secret. Ultimately, it's their call."
However, Sanchez refused to speculate about next season when asked whether he thought his guaranteed salary of $8.25 million for 2013, which likely makes it financially untenable to trade or release him, was a positive or negative.
"I'm not going to get into contract stuff," Sanchez said. "Anything about that, I'm not going to answer questions about that."
Asked directly about his future with the Jets, Sanchez said only, "We'll see, we'll see, we're getting ready for Buffalo."
Likewise, Tebow sidestepped a question about reports he would wind up playing for his hometown Jaguars in 2013.
He did strongly defend his agent, Jimmy Sexton, when asked whether he was disappointed if it was Sexton who leaked the news while denying he had a close relationship with ESPN reporter Chris Mortensen, who broke that story.
Tebow also was evasive when asked whether he felt he had been given a fair chance to compete for playing time with the Jets. He's just confident in what he can do.
"I believe in my God-given ability to play this game of football," said Tebow, who has played just 76 offensive snaps as a Jet, and added the last time he was used less in a football season was when he was "three or four years old."
"I've played it for a long time and I'm looking forward to playing it some more."
Except, like Sanchez, that chance may have to come in a different uniform.

Been shooting wolf through my ars for years. Cycles both the rifle and carbine.
Never had a problem with laquer coating. As far as emptys on the yard, i just raise the deck!
i have been running polymer and laquer in my 7.62x39 ar. so far, no problems.
"It does not take a majority to prevail ... but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." --Samuel Adams
I don't know of anyone who has a QUALITY AR having problems other than accuracy with steel case ammo.
Good link though there j427x, i look foward to reading it in depth later.
Actually, every time I see someone post about wolf ammo on arfcom it's a expensive rifle. I believe the last post I looked at it was a DD M4, and it wouldn't cycle the ammo. I then opened my mouth and said any AR should cycle wolf no matter what. It doesn't matter if you paid $500 for it or $1200.
It turned into a big shit storm then like it usually does. I think because I said my del-ton and bushmaster cycled it, and your $1200 AR won't. Then the posts started coming that I never had a quality AR....Yada yada yada........ And then I posted my Colt M4, and FN A4 upper and they shut up.
Last edited by logan09; 03-24-2011 at 12:17 AM. Reason: Spelled a word wrong
yea the so called "quality-mall ninja brand" generally have the most problems due to the russian powder having pressure curve that don't fit the AR-15/M16s gas port size and timing and dwell.
the mall-ninja crowd bitches about being over-gassed. AK's are over-gassed and guess what--they run!--LOL
a very slightly over-gassed ar will run steel russian ammo fine.
the ARMY when they tested steel cases used the correct US made powder for 21K+ rounds with no ill effects.
they wouldn't do quite so well with standard colt sized ports on the russian ammo , though with a port touch-up i think it would have been close.
Quality does not always = $$$
I was talking about people running cheapo no name mismatched shit rifles and then complaining when they don't work, even with "good" ammo.
Personally i think the highest quality AR i've handled is my buddies bravo company upper matched to i forget what lower. Has been completely flawless and shoots moa with mil-spec ammo. Total cost about $800.

A British school has finally come up with a strategy to handle kids who don't know how to behave, let a bona-fide bouncer teach the little bugger a few things about life by shoving him out the front door of the school. A school in the UK has hired two bouncers who were given full time jobs as "cover supervisors" and their job is quite clear, keep the little tykes in line and if they don't obey the teacher, show them how a real bouncer handles unruly customers by throwing them out the door. One recruitment agency has advertised offering retired Marines, firemen, and athletes to handle any discipline problem that might arise.
There is no end to what can be accomplished by using bouncers. How about bouncers to send some congressmen flying when they open up their ignorant mouths. Then again, Sarah Palin, are you listening– the next time you gaze across the Bering Straits there might be a man behind you to bounce you across the water.

Coupe Welcomes Calls Per Pleasanton Weekly
Original post made by Anonymous, Another Pleasanton neighborhood, on Feb 5, 2008
Friday, February 1, 2008
Both sides of fence meet Monday
Residents, school officials agree to base rock path, opening another gate
by Emily Atwood
Amador Valley High School Principal Bill Coupe facilitated what was said to be the final meeting Monday night discussing the school's rear entrance off of Gatetree Circle. Attended by a group of about 30 residents and parents, the consensus was to possibly open another gate until the school district could lay ground rock over the fire path.
Coupe and several residents said the fence--that replaced a gate earlier this school year that once allowed campus entry by way of the sports fields--is an effective solution to the concerns of traffic, parking and safety that many residents said lowered their quality of life. A chain link fence now re-routes students around the edge of campus--adding about 200 to 300 yards to the route--on a fire road that heads toward the parking lot, not the classrooms.
Even though a general agreement was reached, members of both sides expressed frustration and said their compromises were greater. In a show of hands to who wanted the gate reopened, about nine people showed interest.
Only one student attended the meeting. She, along with a handful of parents, complained of mud along the new path making the path practically unusable. To make the route more accessible during inclement weather, Hugh Anton, district director of architectural planning and management, said the school district offered to pay $16,700 to have a base rock layer installed on the fire path. He was unsure of where that money would come from.
Some were only moderately pleased at this solution, as Anton said the construction would start once the rain cleared up and couldn't take place on the weekend because of overtime fees for workers.
One resident said he used the path to get to the meeting and insisted that the path was not muddy as some claimed, and held up his clean shoe as proof. Another resident said the path need only be leveled and set up to drain properly.
Coupe and Amador's vice principals traversed the path after the meeting during on and off rain showers. While there were puddles, he said "there are ways to walk through that are passable." Until the district is able to lay down the base rock on the fire path, Coupe said a compromise on rainy days could be opening a fence near the tennis courts so students can walk on asphalt.
Some residents shared concern over the fire route improvements, saying it could make it more attractive to students and reverse the progress made in regards to traffic and parking. There was also no advancement on the idea of permit parking, as Coupe said it would be handled by the city, not the school district. There were mixed views regarding permit parking, with some not wanting their visitors to be ticketed.
After the last meeting, Coupe said the residents were to meet on their own about the changes and bring a consensus message to him prior to Monday's meeting. However, he said he didn't hear back from them. For those with further concern about the projected changes, he said he welcomes feedback. He can be reached at 461-6100.

One question came to mind after reading this article.
Did Bill Coupe ever mention that the District and Amador would prefer the sports fields not be a cut-through now that thousands upon thousands of our tax dollars were spent on rehab?
I find it ironic that this is said to be a "neighbor" problem when I believe the school and district (based on conversations I've had with Lou Cesario in the past) would prefer field access be limited.
I notice the word "honesty" was left out of item 5 on the Good Neighbor Policy. (Web Link)

This is NIMBY at its worst!!!!
That path was a vital access to the school for decades. Those residents bought their homes knowing it was there. They bought their homes knowing they shared a boundary with a high school if it is not working for them they should relocate; the school will always be there. They have no place demanding change that causes a burden on the greater community.
As long as one resident wanted to keep the path open the historical precedence should have prevailed.

The path that was a vital access to the school for decades is now dealing with a different type of student and community.
If you differ, then I suggest you read the story from this publication at this Web Link
I can tell you the High School I attended decades ago is worlds different than when I was a student there.

I agree with Matt. Take the pricipal up on his offer. Everyone disappointed with the decision to close the field gate and the associated cost of $16700.00 should call the school and voice their concern. It would cost the district nothing to re-open the gate and that money could be spent where it is really needed in the district. It is really a shame those few neighbors aren't being "good neighbors" themselves with regard to closing the gate.

Again I remind folks there is also a desire to minimize sport field cut-through after spending thousands upon thousands of our tax dollars on the track, football field and new softball field areas.
Make sure to ask Bill Coupe, if you call, whether that played a role in the decision to keep the gate closed.
If any of you think there is no expense to maintaining the fields and addressing damage done due to "cut-through" traffic, then I really want a piece of the fairy tale land you're living in.

To Another Gatetree Resident,
Not sure if you were at the meeting, but I was, and when Bill Coupe was asked about having kids travel across the field, he said something to the effect that in a perfect world, he would not have kids cutting across the field, but it was not of big concern to him. THAT was obvious. This is an all weather field and will sustain plenty of foot traffic. Your point is not valid.
The few neighbors who cried "safety" and had the gate closed will now cost the district over $16,000 in an already tight budget. But what do you care....you don't have children in the PUSD. Shame on you.

Posted by ANOTHER gatetree resident,
Some of the work being funded out of that $16,000+ has been discussed for years. It was one of the discussion points that came up during the field restructure meetings, along with the Redwood trees that were on the plans yet NEVER planted by the district down the common property line. But we got a new obnoxious scoreboard in!
As for not having kids in the district, perhaps that is true, but my taxes still go towards those schools utilized by my neighbor's children. That gives me the ability to have a voice in this discussion WITHOUT shame. I do care about the kids. They are our future. That's why I am thrilled "A Gatetree Circle Family" who voiced their concerns in the related thread no longer need to be worried for the safety of their 3 year old.
PUSD has long lived high on the hog from developer fees. Those fees are now dwindling with the town being close to build out. They are being forced to look to traditional sources of funding which are also in short supply. Eliminating the Public Information Officer salary from PUSD might go a long way towards funding the work under discussion. It might even leave a few dollars on the table to purchase items that directly enhance the quality of education the kids receive. Example: Media & Technology is only 2% of the General Fund budget. General Administration is 5.6%, with School Administration at 4.8%. Seems a tad off balance to me.
Too bad this topic is the one that has apparently forced many into reality. Before claiming this money to be a waste, perhaps you should review the District Budget via the following Web Link and look at where there the educational dollars are being allocated, IF education is your real issue/concern.

Thank you ANOTHER Gatetree resident for calling your neighbor on their misrepresentation of the facts. They are in need of the reality check. Yes the district does have less funds for education which is why forcing their hand to spend $16700 on a walkway is truly a waste. Suggesting a postion be eliminated to pay for the walkway is absurd. Even if the position was eliminated the point is the money should be spent on education. Again, re-opening the field gate would cost nothing.
Stating the mother now need not be worried about the safety of her 3 year old is a riduculous statement as well. A mother always needs to be concerned for her children's safety and I'm sure residents of the street will still drive by this child's home, and the mailman and delivery trucks and the garbage trucks and so on.
This resident must feel guilty for exaggerating their claims to AVHS and is trying to push any idea to lessen their guilt. Obviously they don't care about AVHS kids, "our future", who would like the gate re-opened.

I feel guilty about nothing. And if the AVHS kids would really like the gate reopened, why weren't THEY at the meeting?
And FYI -- I misrepresented nothing. It's simply MY perspective. I don't ask, nor care, that you agree or disagree.

FYI -- A call was just made to the Pleasanton PD. My husband was coming into Gatetree Circle using the "non-Amador" side of the loop. Some kid in a late model blue Pathfinder came speeding around the corner, riding well over his side of the street, and when the kid realized he was over the line, he had the gall to play chicken with my husband. Fortunately for the kid, he realized he'd lose the game.
If anyone knows who this kid is, I'd love details so we can update Pleasanton PD. Feel free to e-mail me via Yahoo at firstname.lastname@example.com
Thank you.

2017 guide to summer camps
Looking for something for the kids to do this summer, learn something new and have fun? The 2017 Summer Camp Guide features local camps for all ages and interests.

There was once a time when I thought that a few coats of nailpolish was no big deal and should not be given much thought. Sure, having some shade of red on your nails looks alright, but why bother? It's just going to chip anyways, right? This changed a few months ago when I was invited to a nail painting party at a girlfriend's house, where we ate dinner, gabbed, drank wine, and got super creative with our painting skills (we all went to art school together, so it's nice to see our degrees at work). There was something so delightful about taking a few hours out of my hectic schedule to just relax and do a little thing for myself. Now, every sunday night it's just me, my nails, and an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and I couldn't be happier.
If you can afford it, take a couple of hours to just sit and enjoy the process of layering lacquer. It's a simple task that gives you a break from the hectic lives we all lead. And now, with fall coming there are all sorts of new nail trends to play with!
Barely There Color
Left to right: Polish by Essie, Dior, and OPI for Sephora
Nude polishes have been trendy for ages. They're perfect for any season and can add a subtle polish to your look. This season though, try venturing away from the light pinkish neutrals and play with grays, mochas, and khakis. And if you're feeling a bit glitzier, try layering a metallic glitter top coat over your neutrals. I'm particularily fond of Traffic Stopper Copper by Opi for Sephora.
Don't Toss Those Neons!
Nails by Sophy Robson
Neon half moons by yours truly.
This summer neons were HUGE. You could barely open a blog without seeing a neon green satchel or an almost painful to look at orange belt. But just because summer is on it's way house, you shouldn't have to trash your statement making hues. This fall, try using neon colors as an accent in your manicure. Pair it with a nice neutral and you've got a look that's both playful and sophisticated.
Red Red Nails
From left to right: nailpolish by Deborah Lippmann, MAC, and Essie
Ok so maybe I was trashing red nails earlier, but it's impossible to avoid the fact that red nails are classics for a reason. There's something so powerful about a woman who can rock a deep red nail. While candy apple reds are sweet and fun, vampy vintage reds are perfect for a fall season of climbing the corporate ladder or sipping martinis with your girlfriends.
Whatever you end up doing, remember, you can always start over! Take some time for yourself, relax, and try something that intimidates you, because who knows, you might fall in love with your digits all over again!

text: 'Zach's Pack' is back for Jimmy Fund Walk Since his cancer went into remission 16 years ago, MTA member and Natick High School Vice Principal Zach Galvin has had many chances to give back. His leadership in the annual Jimmy Fund Boston Marathon Walk is only one example. Now, a death in the family presents another reason for Galvin to stay joined in the fight. Galvin's father, Edward F. Galvin Jr., died in July, a victim of melanoma and acute leukemia. The loss has been difficult, said Galvin, but it "revives the importance of doing this walk." Galvin's sister has also battled leukemia. The vice principal, a resident of Wellesley, has led the "Zach's Pack" team since 1998, and this year the team hopes to raise $50,000, for a total to date exceeding $500,000. On September 8, Galvin will lace up his running shoes with, he hopes, plenty of supporters. MTA co-walkers and supporters will be highly visible in T-shirts emblazoned with the slogan "TEAM MTA" on the front, and some, including Galvin and his family members, will be wearing "Zach's Pack" shirts. The TEAM MTA T-shirt idea was the brainchild of Christine Mulroney, president of The Massachusetts Child, an MTA charity that is donating the shirts for participating MTA members. Requests for T-shirts can be sent to firstname.lastname@example.com. Members can participate in the walk by registering and walking as members of Zach's Pack or by sending in donations in the name of the team. Information on the walk and a link to Galvin's team page are available at www.jimmyfundwalk.org. The Zach's Pack Facebook page can be found at www.facebook.com/zachspack4jimmyfund. Galvin, a recipient of the MTA Human and Civil Rights Award in June 2012, sees survivorship as "something of a responsibility. That's where my drive comes from, and the energy from that has stirred students and teachers and friends and people from all over the world to donate to children fighting cancer through the Jimmy Fund." This year is the 25th anniversary of the Boston Marathon Jimmy Fund Walk, so named because it follows the route of the nation's most celebrated foot race.

Dear Dolores,
In our corridor we have two congress members that need to know the will and interests of the people for actions by congress. May we have your readers and commentators provide positions on issues, and new issues for consideration, in discussion of expectations for congressional results? What specific issues for California need congressional action?
Shall we start with sources and uses of funds? What do your readers and commentators see as appropriate actions on taxes and other sources of income? How do they feel about costs to governments such as war, banking bailouts, entitlements and more. Do they expect bi-partisan efforts to resolve economic and operational issues?
Can we start such a conversation between you and your readers?

This is a very important, well reasoned and well argued article from the NRDC.
Posted May 2, 2013 in Curbing Pollution, Health and the Environment, U.S. Law and Policy
EU protects bees, but US protects pesticide-producer profits
The scientific evidence against the neonicotinoid pesticides (neonics) is stacking up like so many dead and dying bees. And, not just bees: - turns out that our little aquatic invertebrate buddies are also harmed, other beneficial insects are harmed, and birds that eat insects are harmed.
See MotherJones story here: http://www.motherjones.com/tom-philp...harm-birds-too
and American Bird Conservancy report here:
We are very pleased that the European Union has recently voted to ban the neonics for two years (April, 2013 - see report in The Guardian here). The EU decision – supported by 15 of the 27 EU nations – was based on strong scientific evidence showing harm. A French study published in the top journal Science reported an increase in bee-foragers that "fail to return to the hive" following low-dose exposure to Thiamethoxam (made by Syngenta). A British study also published in Science reported a "severe loss of queen bees in hives exposed to low doses of Imidacloprid" (made by Bayer).(a very good fact sheet on the hazards of Imidacloprid is here:
The EU ban came after the European Commission proposed the suspension in response to a report by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) in January that determined that three neonicotinoids – thiamethoxam, clothianidin and imidacloprid – posed an unacceptable risk to bees. With the EU vote, now all three will be banned from use for two years on flowering crops such as corn, oilseed rape and sunflowers. (see report on Yale Enviro360 here)
Thanks to a carefully documented report by Corporate Europe Observatory, we have evidence that the EU decision to ban the neonics came despite intense lobbying and interference by Bayer and Syngenta who make and sell the chemicals.
In defense of their poisons, these corporations sent letters to high-level government officials blaming the bee deaths on misuse of the chemicals by farmers. They also claimed it was only "a small group activists and hobby beekeepers" that were fuelling the movement to ban the insecticides.
And, they begged for more time to study the problem while allowing the pesticides continued use, saying it was necessary to avoid "wrong conclusions from a rushed process that could have disastrous implications for agriculture and ironically for bee health". Hardest to swallow was the claim by Syngenta that "independent analysis" – for which it failed to provide any citations, references, or documentation – showed that banning the neonic pesticides would result in significant damage to European agriculture. All these industry letters are documented here:
A report just released by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on Honey Bee Health finds that pesticides "may be part of the problem", including both the pyrethroid and neonicotinoid classes of pesticides. Both of these classes of pesticides were developed and promoted as reduced-risk replacements for the war-era organo-phoshate pesticides that were not only deadly to bees and other wildlife, but also highly toxic to people.
However, emerging science is proving that these replacement chemicals pose significant risks of harm to bees and beneficial insects, and therefore ultimately to agriculture and our ability to grow our own food. Unfortunately, the USDA/EPA report recommendations are mainly limited to recommendations about best management practices and technical advancements for applying pesticides to reduce dust, etc. The report is conspicuously silent on reducing the overall use of bee-killing pesticides, that is, on recommendations that would reduce the overall sales and profits for chemical makers.
In the US the neonicotinoid insecticides are used as seed treatments for most corn and canola seeds grown in the US, and as a field treatment for most cotton, sorghum, and sugar beets, and about half of all soybeans. The neonics are also used on most fruit and vegetable crops, including apples, cherries, peaches, oranges, berries, leafy greens, tomatoes, and potatoes. Neonicotinoids are also applied to cereal grains, rice, nuts, and wine grapes. (see report on Yale Enviro360 here) The seed treatments are particularly pernicious because the chemical ends up in the pollen and nectar, the food of bees and other pollinators, and ultimately in lethal levels within the hive. (see MotherJones report here and science data from USGS scientists here and from Purdue Univ scientists here)
An NRDC Issue Brief I co-authored documented a gaping loophole in the pesticide registration process that has allowed the majority of pesticides onto the market without a public and transparent process, and in some cases without a full set of toxicity tests. The loophole, called a conditional registration, was used to approve as many as 65% of more than 16,000 pesticides now on the market, including neonicotinoid pesticides.(see my blog on our report here)
What are some things that the US government should be doing?
- EPA should cancel the neonicotinoid pesticides.
- EPA and USDA need to include neonic pesticides in their report on pesticide industry sales and usage, including pesticide uses to treat seeds. These data would help inform the public about increasing trends in sales of the neonic pesticides in the US and globally.
- The USDA National Agriculture Statistics Services (NASS) database should be expanded to include applications of the neonicotinoid pesticides, including for seed treatments. Right now these are not included, so there is no reliable way to track the use of neonic pesticides by crop or by county.
USGS needs the resources to conduct rigorous comprehensive stream monitoring for neonic contamination. Although California published a report in 2012 finding imidacloprid in 89% of surface water samples from agriculture areas, and USGS detected it in over half of stream samples from two streams in Georgia, there are no National data.
EPA should use its authority to require Bayer and Syngenta to conduct and submit a rigorous comprehensive field study of the impacts of neonics from both seed and field treatments on pollinator health, including queen bee production, over-wintering, and overall colony health. The study should be publicly-available for peer review and public scrutiny.
University extension services need the resources to provide education and outreach to help growers move away from neonics and other harmful pesticides, using Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approaches.(EPA has information on IPM here)
Recently, a coalition of beekeepers, environmental groups, and consumer groups lead by the Center for Food Safety filed a lawsuit against EPA for not adequately protecting bees and other pollinators from pesticides. While NRDC was not part of the lawsuit, we strongly support its goals, and urge EPA to protect beneficial species, including bees.
So, will the pesticide advocates address the facts and the issues reported above by the most highly respected conservation body in the USA? Or will we back to the usual harassment, outright denial (I spread neonics on my kids Wheaties!) , distraction, personal attacks, invasion of privacy - and let's not forget Jonathan with his 'Suppression of information ad Free Speech' strategy (he really works at that one full time).
Watch this space.
Expect to see this section of the Forum consigned to a disused bunker underneath a Minuteman silo outside Omaha Nebraska, with access limited to only those willing to 'go down to the Crossroads' at midnight, and sign the contract in blood, with our goat-horned friend, with the 'Bayer' brand on his forehead.

News 5 was inside the courtroom as suspects Marvin Potter Jr. and Jamie Lynn Curd appeared before a judge. Both men are charged in the killings of Billy Payne Jr. and Billie Jean Hayworth. The couple was found dead inside their home back in January.
It's a gruesome crime with an unusual motive. Authorities say it all could have started on Facebook. But Wednesday's focus for prosecutors was simply finding enough evidence that the two were involved.
As the victims' family sought justice inside the courtroom, Marvin Potter Jr. and Jamie Lynn Curd awaited their fate.
"The court will conduct the hearing to find if there's any probable cause," said Judge Bliss Hawkins.
TBI agent Scott Lott, who investigated the crime scene and interviewed the suspects, testified and read aloud a written statement made by Curd.
Curd's statement claims it was Potter who brought him to Payne and Hayworth's house and shot the victims. In the statement that was read, Curd's own role is questionable.
"I will not say if I cut Billy's neck or not, but the only reason I would cut Billy's neck is because I was scared if I did not, Buddy [Marvin Potter Jr.] would kill me, too," Lott said as he read Curd's statement to the courtroom.
Recorded phone calls were also used as evidence of probable cause. Lott said Potter called his wife after being interviewed and admitted to playing a part in the deadly crime.
"I was involved in it. I did it," Potter's voice said in the recorded phone call that way played for the courtroom to hear.
That phone call alleges that Potter shot the victims to protect his own family. In the call, Potter said he didn't want his wife and daughter to be afraid anymore.
While Potter never gave a written statement to invesigators, and Lott said Curd verbally contradicted what he told investigators later on, the judge bound the case over to a grand jury.
It was a small victory for a family still grieving and desperately seeking closure.
"A part of my soul is broken," said Beverly Garland, Billy Payne Jr.'s mother, "I miss my son. I love him," she said, trying to hold back tears.
A grand jury will meet on March 29. In the meantime, we're told the investigation is still on-going, and prosecutors are gathering more evidence to build their case. They've requested information from Facebook, AOL instant messenger, and emails. The state is also awaiting lab results from DNA tests and autopsies.

Studies done on hives wintered in the north showed that the cluster moved or started in the bottom box in fall and moved upward during winter. I will assume that the researchers observed this in the majority of hives.
Walt has a good point on honey stores and no doubt some clusters will behave differently depending on feed location.
Most northern hives are packed away in Oct/Nov and because of weather are not inspected until Feb/Mar so it makes it hard to know exactly how and when the cluster moves. When I ran doubles a few clusters were still in the bottom box in March, some were half way up into the top and some were mostly in the top box.
Now that I winter in singles the cluster is hopefully found where I left it.

Monica Gibbs recorded her third double-double of the
season with a career-high 19 points and 10 rebounds.
Ewalefo, Gibbs lead UTSA past Memphis, 85-73
By Carlos Valdez III
UTSA Assistant Sports Information Director
(Jan. 3, 2007)--UTSA senior Vivian Ewalefo and sophomore Monica Gibbs combined for 44 points to lead the UTSA women' basketball team a 85-73 victory against Memphis in day one of the Wells Fargo New Year's Classic Friday night, Dec. 29, at the Convocation Center.
Ewalefo tied her career high with 25 points, while freshman Lynsey Freeman set a career high with 17 points and five 3-pointers. Gibbs' 19 points were a career best, while junior Terrie Davis poured in 11 points.

Gibbs hauled in a team-best 10 rebounds en route to her third double-double on the year, while making a career-high nine free throws.
UTSA's 85 points marked the first time since the 2004-05 season that the Roadrunners scored 80 or more points.
Aroha Jennings paced the Lady Tigers (3-10) with 26 points, while Ashley Thornton chipped in with 14.
UTSA (3-8) jumped to an early 6-2 lead, but Memphis used a 15-7 run to take a 17-13 advantage with midway through the first half. The Roadrunners recaptured the lead at 29-19 with the help of a 14-4 run, as Ewalefo and Freeman combined for 12 points. The Roadrunners closed out the half on a 16-5 run to build their lead to 45-31. UTSA ended the first frame shooting 50 percent from the floor, connecting on 17-of-34 field goals.
The Roadrunners built their largest lead of the game (60-41) when Freeman connected on a 3-pointer with 14:26 left in the game. However, Memphis trimmed the lead to 68-57 with 9:27 to go, but UTSA extended its lead to 14 points (73-59) on a jumper by Ewalefo.
Jennings' second 3-pointer pulled the Lady Tigers within eight points at 79-71 with less than two minutes remaining in the game, but UTSA closed out the game with a 10-5 run.

While mine are more yellow stripped and blunt shaped this bee is darker and it's tale end is black. It's also shaped almost wasp-like with a very narrow abdomen. They haven't been aggressive and ignore me around the feeder. My honeybees will check them out but they don't bother each other. You can see both bees in the attached picture. Mine is the yellowish one at the top and the other bee is the dark one at the bottom. Can someone tell me what kind of bee that is?

Susan Crawford for FCC Chairman
Original post made by Jeff Hoel, Midtown, on Feb 17, 2013
Web Link
In this interview video, Crawford discusses what her book is about.
Web Link
Crawford advocates that government return to regulating telecom in the public interest, including making it easier for municipalities to implement fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP) networks.
A petition asking the Obama administration to appoint Susan Crawford as the next chairman of the FCC can be found here:
Web Link
If you agree with Crawford analysis and proposals, please consider signing the petition.
(When Google said it was going to implement a FTTP system in some lucky city that seemed to want it, many Palo Altans sent Google requests that it consider Palo Alto. This is a similar kind of opportunity.)

As a seasoned European traveler, I am always amazed at how fast the Internet is in Western Europe (Great Britain, not so much).
I have been told repeatedly in the last ten years that it is because there are government standards and regulations. In the EU, the government and the business sector seem to have more awareness of each other and their respective goings-on, particularly in Germany.
Why is there not more of that here? Deregulation of certain industries, such as the ones that control other people's money and safety, have been disastrous. The government needs to be kept in the loop in regards to the things businesses do.

Getting there: a long ride through Senegal

Hide lines
but by 7:30 am the next morning-or whatever time our brains thought it was after all the time zone changes-it was back to travelling: an 8 hour bus ride through senegal then a ferry trip to Banjul, finally arriving at Happy camp in Kanifing Estates around 6:30 pm
We've seen so many new things on the bus ride, my eyes hardly know what to do with themselves...and my brain is even more confused. As the colorful "Gambian Tours" bus pulled away from Hotel l'Ocean, I was amazed, clutching my camera and constantly snapping photos of anything I could see from my window. And based on American standards, everything WAS amazing and picture-worthy. But looking back on the pictures later on in the ride, many of the pictures seemed boring and mundane. I guess it's all a matter of adjusting... and never having been out of the country before, I didn't anticipate this.
Dakar is a dusty, crowded, colorful city covered in dirt, both of dilapidation and of development. Construction weaves in and out of crumbling buildings with almost no sense of order. This sense of confusion was heightened by the fact that we wandered lost for about an hour through these streets as soon as we left the hotel. The city is spotted with familiar cars, signs, and products - Nestle seems to have a strange hold on this region especially - but everything is different. A horse cart is parked in front of a Coca Cola billboard, a boy selling slabs of raw meat from a shack by the road is wearing an Eminem shirt
There are a couple of things I've noticed. Though traffic was hellish in Dakar (lanes do not exist, and at one point we were speeding by going the opposite direction of all the other cars on a road, and I don't even think we were doing anything wrong by Dakar standards), the roads are paved better than I-70 going through Missouri. Even out of the city, in the country this remained true for quite a while.
Also, though men and children peer at our bus from the side of the road, and little kids yell "tubab, tubab," the women show almost no sign of seeing us. They walk by with high chins and straight backs, often with colorful clothes and maybe eggs or a bucket balanced on their head and seem far to dignified to acknowledge such a spectacle as our bus
The whole group was very happy to make it out of the city. As the surroundings went from dirt to lush greenery we stopped coughing so much and could actually breathe. We were even happier to cross the Senegalese border into The Gambia. Stopped at customs, before passing into The Gambia, little kids as well as people around our age surrounded our bus, sticking their hands in the windows and asking, sometimes demanding, money, pens, gifts...anything. This was my harsh initiation to a question I've been struggling with for the past few days. It is completely logical that they need money, clothes, etc. more than I do, and would appreciate what I give them more than I do. Yet I cannot just give away my money and belongings like that...there must be some sort of plan and organization and moderation. Besides, the way they demanded things hardly inspired compassion. We gave away all the pens we had, but the same people would come back demanding more, threatening to cry, and not moving their hands from the window. I ended up partly angry, partly guilty, partly confused, but mostly just wishing these sorts of interactions didn't exist (that people wouldn't act this way, and that such inequality didn't exist to make them act this way, and that it wasn't so easy to shelter oneself from the reality of that inequality that this could be a completely new situation for me) In the Gambia, people were very friendly, asking us about America and our lives and generally being ridiculously friendly. But then, one or two times, they would eventually ask us for money or a favor, and we would again be burdened with the idea that we might have to question the true motives of any person we meet...In fact, I think of all the experiences I've had here, that has been the most confusing. I'm simply not yet sure how to fit comfortably into this position of a tubab in Africa. Luckily I have plenty of time to work this out, and I'm really excited to do so.

Steven Ertelt, LifeNews.com
The nation's Catholic bishops and a Catholic organization that monitors Catholic colleges and universities are concerned about the Obama administration's decision today.
As LifeNews.com reported, the Health and Human Services Department ruled that insurance companies are required to include birth control and drugs that can cause abortions in their coverage by virtue of defining them as preventative care. Pro-life organizations are also concerned that the decision will violate the conscience rights of Catholics and religious and pro-life groups that don't want to have to pay for insurance that covers birth control and abortion drugs but don't qualify for the narrowly-drawn conscience limits the Obama administration will put in place under the decision.
The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops sharply criticized the Obama administration's "preventive services" mandate that it says "requires health plans to cover female surgical sterilization and all drugs and devices approved by the FDA as contraceptives, including drugs which can attack a developing unborn child before and after implantation in the mother's womb."
"Although this new rule gives the agency the discretion to authorize a 'religious' exemption, it is so narrow as to exclude most Catholic social service agencies and healthcare providers," said Cardinal Daniel DiNardo, Archbishop of Galveston-Houston and chairman of the USCCB Committee on Pro-Life Activities.

The Garden Refused
- THERE is a garden, made for our delight,
- Where all the dreams we dare not dream come true.
- I know it, but I do not know the way.
- We slip and stumble in the doubtful night,
- Where everything is difficult and new,
- And clouds our breath has made obscure the day.
- The blank, unhappy towns, where sick men strive,
- Still doing work that yet is never done,
- The hymns to Gold that drown their desperate voice:
- The weeds that grow where once corn stood alive,
- The black injustice that puts out the sun;
- These are our portion, since they are our choice.
- Yet there the garden blows, with rose on rose,
- The sunny shadow‐dappled lawns are there,
- There the immortal lilies, heavenly‐sweet.
- Oh roses that for us shall not unclose!
- Oh lilies that we shall not pluck or wear!
- Oh dewy lawns untrodden by our feet!

The lack of "style" was definitely the case with Allistyle. If this had been a non-specialty size collection, it probably wouldn't have even been shown at World MasterCard Fashion Week as is, unless the designer was already well known to those who are familiar with the Canadian fashion industry (e.g. Joe Fresh).

My credit card company alerted me to that fact a month ago, (not from Connecting Thread Co) that someone had charged first $150.00 to my card and another $99.00 dollars a week later. Thank goodness I have insurance on my credit card, if anything's going on, they contact me. I didn't have to pay any of this. My credit card was cancelled and a new one issued. Good Luck!!!
