It seems that most of the folks that post to this forum are what I'd term "hobby" or "serious" hobby beekeepers. Perhaps 100 hives or less and something that can be managed in a weekend.
It would be interesting to hear from a big commercial outfit that keeps hundreds of hives and how they manage them for mites. Do they employ a sticky board on every hive and count the mite drop from each? Do they use the FGMO treatment on every hive every week?
What differences are there in how a large commercial beekeeper operates and how a hobby beekeeper operates?
Do commercial outfits suffer a higher percentage rate of winter loss due to mites?

With the arrival of your new baby drawing closer, you'll want to do everything you can to prepare, including furnishing and decorating the baby nursery. A baby nursery that is filled with all the right touches will give your infant a bright and beautiful place to start life. The wall decor can set the mood for the entire room, so start with art and decorations that are fun, interesting, unique and special.
Wall art appliques. Removable wall decor appliques and decals offer some of the best ideas for a baby's room. Printed plastic and vinyl wall decals come in a variety of colors and designs. Opt for a themed collection of wall art images and create your own mural, which you can easily rearrange or remove as your child grows and you want to change the room. There are also decals that display words or phrases, such as well-known lines from nursery rhymes, prayers or beloved children's books. These look especially precious when posted on the wall above a baby's crib or cradle and can set the theme for the whole room.
Framed art. As in any room, framed art can be the best way to add interest and beauty to nursery walls. Art is always personal, so choose a piece or grouping that speaks to you and your family. A lovely print of a mother and child or a toddler with a stuffed toy might move you, or you may prefer something whimsical and bright. If you have not yet settled on a theme or color for your baby's room, the perfect piece of framed art could be your best inspiration.
Quilts. You have probably contemplated in great detail, if not already selected, the bedding for your baby's room. What you might not have considered is using a pretty quilt to decorate the wall. Quilts make lovely wall hangings and, with elaborate patterns and multicolor pieces, they let you tie together several colors in the room. Find a large quilt that harmonizes with your nursery decor or arrange several smaller ones in a delightful wall grouping.
Letters. It has long been popular to decorate a nursery with letters. Spell out your little one's name with lovely, polished silver letters hanging from ribbons above the crib or use bright, colorful letters to showcase the alphabet or your little one's initials. You can add letters to your child's nursery in a variety of ways, from hand-painting them right onto the wall to utilizing lovely lettered wallpaper.

Reviews of this property
We enjoyed our stay in Sydney very much. Beverly was very friendly and helpful. We had a good time in the appartment, which Beverly has designed with Love.
Our stay @Beverleys was great/wonderful! The host and the location are excellent: Beverley has a wide open welcoming heart, does everything that her guests feel at home. The house is central located - close to Redfern or even Central Station. Toast, cereals, tea, coffee & milk are nicely prepared in the kitchen to take for for the guests. Beverley although can give you good and helpful tips for visiting the city... We really are excited and would book that place again!!!
Beverly was such a wonderful host. She's a very kind lady. It was my first time in Sydney and she made sure my stay was comfortable. Very neat and organized host. Will definitely make another booking on my next visit.
very nice stay in a cozy little house near the university. Not so far from CBD.
Very nice and friendlly hosts.
Good as we expect! Beverley is charming and david is very nice , both very available for any questions. They have a lovely place very well located. If we come back to Sydney (hope we will) we know where to go . Thanks for warm welcoming
Beverly is a lovely host, she made us feel very welcome in her home.
The rooms are nice and her little garden is beautiful.
We really had a wonderful stay in Sydney. Thank you very much again, Beverly, and all the best for you!
The host was very welcoming and helpful in planning our visit in the city. The house is very old and cleanliness was not a priority and well below most travelers' standards. We were very disappointed that we had to share a bathroom with 2 other people. The location is good, close to trains and buses.
We had a beautiful stay in Bevs and Davids house and we felt very welcome, had a nice room with a cosy little balcony, where we could sit not only in the evening and enjoy the stay. We could use all the house facilities, kitchen, living room and BBQ. The house is near the center of Sydney, public transport 5 min. to go to Redfern. Beverly and David were so nice and friendly, we found new friends. We can really recommend their house and we would like to come back soon. Thank you for all!!
Beverley is a friendly and welcoming host. The location is amazing. It's very central and the neighbourhood is great.
We enjoyed our time in Sydney and want to thank Beverley again (especially for the perfect special arrangement on our last day)! :-)
My 5 years old daughter and me had a great time at Beverley's lovely house.
She is a very welcoming, kindhearted and helpful person and we felt safe and happy straight away. She also has a lovely garden where it was great to relax after some fun exploring time.
The room was very comfortable with a comfy bed and even had a little balcony what we enjoyed.
It was walking distance to chinatown, darling harbour and all the museums but it is also very easy to catch the train since the station is very closed by.
The area itself is very interesting and gives a good sense of the city and its changes. With its terrace houses everywhere it is lovely to walk around.
We meet many friendly people on the streets. There is also Prince Alfred park close by with a very nice swimming pool, a splash deck for toddlers and a café.
In the park are other playground my daughter enjoyed very much.......
We will definitely return....

The No campaign has not filed since their income/expense is less than $1,000 , the amount you have to reach before filing. I did contact somebody from that group to see if I could make a small contribution and they said thanks but they were not accepting donations but said if I wanted to make a contribution to donate directly to a classroom.

This is great news, and thanks so much for posting this, Jill! I'm buoyed to know so many reputable and well-respected organizations have shown their support for the Measure E parcel tax, and I'm reinforced in the conviction that my Yes on Measure E vote was the correct way to go. An excellent education for our children doesn't stop at the Pleasanton border, but affects us all as citizens of these great United States. Thanks again for making me proud!

Why would a homeowners association in San Ramon be making a contribution for Pleasanton Schools.
I see that we have lawyers who helped place our bonds are on this list, even though the Attorney General said what we were doing with our bond cashing out was illegal. I guess this was a payback for the district using their overpriced, questionable services.
I also thought that our donations to the PTA were to go directly to the schools. I did not realize they were using our donations on campaigning. So I guess we will have to cut back in our school budgets on what the PTA can help with since part of their money is no longer available to the schools. I am shocked at Hearst PTA giving $5,000. That could have done so much at the school. I wish they could have just asked people to make a donation to the campaign instead of spending the money that we gave them during school registration.

I know my school raised the money themselves through bake sales to contribute to the campaign. There's no conspiracy- just support for a good cause- Thanks to all who put in so much time and effort to help our schools- it really does make a difference with all that has already been cut!
a resident of Another Pleasanton neighborhood
on May 1, 2011 at 11:25 am
Thanks to all who contributed. I'm crossing my fingers and hoping we have enough votes. We have great schools here in Pleasanton and Measure E will help us maintain high quality education for our children through this economic downturn.

The community was asked to donate to the campaign. Great fundraiser last week! All parent group donations were voted on and approved by their individual parent groups. Need to get involved and attend the meetings if you're truly interested in where the money is going. As far as I'm concerned, it's a great show of community for a great cause. Let's hope Measure E passes!

Winsor HOA is part of the Laguna Oaks PUD and in Pleasanton. Their managment company is in San Ramon.
Measure E is about the kids and our future leaders. Don't short change them. Vote yes on E.

I agree with the other posters. It was great to see that both individuals and business owners contributed to the Measure E effort. I sincerely hope the measure passes.

Something seems wrong with that to me also. I guess it's a way for the district to use taxpayer dollars to fund their campaighn. As far as I can tell this is just another version of cash-out refinancing.
a resident of California Reflections
on May 3, 2011 at 5:26 pm
Call it whatever you want, Arnold. Fact is, hundreds of respected businesses and organizations went on record stating their support for Measure E, and many donated money to the campaign.
Did I miss the slate of respected businesses and organizations that were willing to express opposition to E. Oh, there was no slate? I see. Thanks. Keep up the good work. Meanwhile, I think many of the No on E supporters are having a ball over on the two Bin Laden posts, the Death Penalty post, and the illegal university/illegal immigrant post. You should take a gander. It's quite a spectacle. Maybe you can round them all up and bring them over to this site for a last hurrah?
Happy to report my household voted Yes on Measure E.

Well it looks like measured E went down in flames. It's good news to me that the revenuer's will not get a hold of my pocketbook this time around. You want more money? Go find it somewhere else.

Belgian ambassador meets with UTSA leaders, students to strengthen European ties
By Bronwyn Wingo
Special Projects Writer, UTSA '05
(June 27, 2005)--Ambassador of Belgium Frans van Daele visited UTSA last week to discuss ways to expand the international business studies program.
Van Daele met with several academic program leaders at a luncheon hosted by Guy Bailey, UTSA provost and executive vice president.

The Belgian Consulate initiated the visit to discuss ways for UTSA to work with the consulate and the European Union (EU) to further develop international programs.
According to van Daele, the multicultural environment of UTSA and San Antonio make the university a prime environment for developing stronger central European connections both academically and economically.
Similarly, Belgium has a multiethnic environment, although it is in the heart of the European continent. "The place to be in Europe is my country," said van Daele. "Most of the regulatory activity is happening in Brussels. That's where the action is."
Following the luncheon, the ambassador spoke to an international management class, updating students on happenings within the EU. In conjunction with the Netherlands and Luxembourg, the Belgian government founded the Benelux Union, which inspired the establishment of the Common Market and later the EU.
"The union is stable and now is the time for American companies to move into Europe," van Daele noted, encouraging students to take advantage of opportunities to study abroad and become more comfortable with international business and communication.
Van Daele earned a master's degree in philosophy and arts from Catholic University of Louvain, Belgium. Before becoming Ambassador of the Kingdom of Belgium to the United States in August 2002, he served as ambassador and permanent representative of Belgium to the European Union, where he engineered in 2001 the Belgian presidency of the EU Council. Since entering the Foreign Service in 1971, he has served in Athens and Rome, and twice as the Belgian representative to the European communities.

Alissa may be in the gpf,being overscored big time the the judges who were probably high,drunk or stoned,but i don't worry about that cause what is Alissa going to achieve in the gpf,the highest she can end up is 5th place.
Yeah, its not the judges that are picking on Mirai, it is the technical callers.
I think the reason Mirai gets so many UR calls because of the way she reaches down with her toe pick a little prematurely. Mao Asada does, too. If the caller measures the rotation in the air only up to the first tippy-toe touch, then almost all of Mirai's jumps are under-rotated.

#include <Python.h> #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { Py_SetProgramName(argv[0]); /* optional but recommended */ Py_Initialize(); PyRun_SimpleString("from time import time,ctime\n" "print 'Today is',ctime(time())\n"); Py_Finalize(); int x = 0; cin >> x; system("PAUSE"); return 0; }
Any idea what's going on here? Oddly, when I place that code that's supposed to pause it
int x = 0; cin >> x; system("PAUSE");
in BEFORE all the python code, it does actually stop. Even worse: I've used breakpoints. If placed on or before the call to Py_Initialize(), the code stops at the breakpoint. Anywhere else, the breakpoint is never reached. Strangely, VC++ will usually tell you if a breakpoint will never be reached, however it seems to believe that the breakpoints placed after Py_Initialize() will be reached.
So apparently there's an error occuring. I barely noticed it. What happens is, a message is output "Import Error: No module named site." The program then closes immediately. Any ideas? I'm googling now, and I'll be back with another update if I find an answer, for future readers.

Driver of car found dead inside burning firehouse
Volunteer fire company offered help to continue providing coverage
LOWER SAUCON TWP., Pa. - Officials are still trying to piece together the circumstances surrounding an accident that sparked a massive fire at a fire station, leaving one man dead and another injured.
A three-axle truck and a car collided Thursday afternoon, causing both vehicles to crash into the Leithsville Volunteer Fire Company's firehouse in Lower Saucon Twp., Northampton Co., said officials, who aren't sure where or how the car and truck hit each other.
"You always see it happening elsewhere, but when it comes close to home, it really shakes you up inside," said neighbor Jamie Wright.
State police have been working to recreate the route the truck took prior to the crash.
The Northampton County coroner has not yet released the name of the man who died in the car, but he did say the victim lived in the area.
The driver of the dump truck, Michael Thomas, 42, was last listed in stable condition at Lehigh Valley Hospital near Allentown.
The Lower Saucon Twp. Police Department is asking for anyone who may have witnessed the accident to call the non-emergency number at 610-759-2200.
As for the fire company, which was set to merge with the Se-Wy-Co Fire Company on June 1, it lost three pieces of valuable equipment in the fire.
"Very sad," said Chief Thomas Barndt, Se-Wy-Cc Fire Company. "It's a sad day in the fire department anywhere when your fire department burns, your station's gone, and all your equipment is gone, because you work so hard with so little time to make it go."
The merger was designed to increase manpower and save money on equipment for both Lower Saucon Township fire stations.
Se-Wy-Co sold a tanker, an engine and a brush fire truck, thinking it would take over the equipment from Leithsville. Those replacements went up in flames Thursday.
"Watching it burn and seeing the devastation on every one of my neighbor's faces and feeling it myself, it's hard. It's really hard," said Wright.
"I hope they rebuild it so that we have protection on this end of the township," said Joe Lengyel, owner, Lengyel Auto Detail.
Combined, the fire companies lost half their firefighting equipment, but the chief said the community shouldn't worry because there will be plenty of coverage, and help from all over the state."
"It's a brotherhood," said Barndt. "I've had phone calls from people in the western part of the state, actually the Pennsylvania state fire commissioner called me yesterday, wished me his condolences and offered apparatus and equipment for the firefighters."
The firefighters will also get help via mutual aid agreements, and the Northampton County dispatch has agreed to send more service vehicles until the station has its full complement of vehicles.Leithsville Fire Company [map]

Line-item veto would slow down Washington's big spenders
By Emily Miller
Members of Congress, even with supercommittee powers, are incapable of cutting spending. With the public debt growing more and more out of control, something has to be done. So House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan, Wisconsin Republican, joined his ranking member, Rep. Chris Van Hollen, Maryland Democrat, in reviving the idea of a line-item veto on Wednesday.
Mr. Van Hollen explained in an interview with The Washington Times that this is an idea both political parties can support. "We obviously have different views of the role of government, but everybody benefits when taxpayers feel that their dollars are being spent wisely," he said. "This is to make sure we don't have any more bridges to nowhere."
President Clinton briefly had line-item veto power until the Supreme Court took it away. Patrick Louis Knudsen, senior budget fellow at the Heritage Foundation, explained that, "The Line Item Veto Act of 1996 was found unconstitutional because it violated the 'presentment' clause - which says that when Congress sends a bill to the president, the president either signs or vetoes the entire bill - he cannot reject part of it." Mr. Ryan consulted with the lawyers who won the case in drafting this new version.
The revised process would give the president 45 days from the enactment of an appropriations bill to send up to two messages to Congress recommending cancelation of specific discretionary spending items. The president could withhold funds for the programs for 45 days while Congress pens legislation to implement the recommendation.
The bill would get expedited floor consideration, a straight up-or-down vote and no amendments would be allowed. The savings could only be used for deficit reduction, and spending caps would be adjusted downward. "I know Chairman Ryan has worked strenuously to thread that constitutional needle," Mr. Knudsen said. "Whether he has succeeded, the court would have to decide."
Mr. Ryan sponsored a similar bill the House had passed in 2006 only to fail in the Senate. Sen. John McCain, Arizona Republican, and Sen. Tom Carper, Delaware Democrat, are hopeful their version, which has 43 cosponsors from both parties, will succeed. Mr. McCain had lobbied the supercommittee to include a line-item veto as part of his 20-year quest to give the president this waste-slashing authority.
The line-item veto is just the first in a series of reform proposals to be introduced in the weeks ahead, Mr. Ryan's spokesman, Conor Sweeney, told The Washington Times. "Of course Chairman Ryan does not think any one of these alone is sufficient to solve the debt crisis, but the broken budget process has to be addressed in an effort to tackle the real problem: the explosive growth of government spending," he said.
Congressional approval ratings are in the single-digit range for a reason. Giving presidents from either political party the permanent ability to blot out pork projects is a needed step in the right direction.

Let me Introduce myself : Living in the village IJsselstein My son was born on the 16th of august 2003. His name is Jimme. Later on, a baby girl was born on the 17th of november 2006. Her name is Elin.
I started with the radio hobby a long time ago. As a little boy my father teached me how to use a CB radio. Can you imagine that I could not believe that we spoke with Zwolle.. It always kept me going to do something with the radio hobby. So I started again in 1992 . After a period of 6 years I got the opportunity to get my license. At fist i kept the call PE3MCO. At that time it's was already allowed to choose your call-sign. After using it for several years i changed the call to an easier suffix. At thats now PE2MC.
Here my 2 kids Jimme and Elin. This in order from left till right.

Final Two Sentenced for Accessing President's Student Loan Records
DAVENPORT, IA- On December 13, 2010, Sandra Teague, a.k.a., Sandra Teague- Garvis, age 54, of Iowa City, Iowa, was sentenced to two years probation, six months of which is to be served on home confinement, based on her conviction for one count of exceeding authorized computer access, announced United States Attorney Nicholas A. Klinefeldt. United States District Judge James E. Gritzner also ordered that Teague pay an assessment of $25 to Crime Victims Fund.
Teague, a former Department of Education (DOE) contract employee, had been charged with accessing without authorization the student loan records of President Barack Obama in 2008 when he was a candidate for the presidency. Teague was convicted on August 25, 2010, following a jury trial.
Another defendant, Andrew Lage, age 54, of Iowa City, Iowa, was sentenced to one year probation and ordered to pay an assessment of $25 to the Crime Victims Fund for similar unauthorized access to the President's student loan records. Lage had entered a guilty plea on September 23, 2010.
The activities of Teague and Lage and seven other defendants came to light when the United States Department of Education, Office of Inspector General (DOE-OIG), began an investigation to determine if its employees or those of its contractors had inappropriately accessed the student loan information of certain celebrities or well-known political and sports figures. DOE-OIG determined that on a number of occasions, unauthorized access to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) database had originated with Vangent Corporation in Coralville, Iowa. Vangent, a DOE contractor, assisted with student loan inquiries via their call center and engaged in debt collection.
As a result, nine former employees of Vangent were charged with exceeding authorized computer access. All nine accessed President Obama's student loan information while he was a candidate for the presidency, President-Elect, or President of the United States. With the exception of Teague, all of the defendant entered guilty pleas.
At her trial, Teague claimed that someone stole her unique NSLDS identifier and password to access President Obama's information. The jury deliberated for just over an hour before finding her guilty.
This investigation was conducted by the United States Department of Education, Office of Inspector General, and was prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Iowa.

Carlos was a great host and very helpful , really nice place , well located highly recommend it.
My sister and I stayed at Claudia's. We never met her in person but we did meet Carlos who made us feel at home. The place is nicely decorated, central and clean. I recommend it for those who are looking for an affordable and warm room.
This is a really nice, clean and cozy accomodation, with good facilities and an awesome and helpfull host named Carlos! Location is at walking distance from the citycentre. We had an amazing time in Lisboa and we did not want to leave at all
I recommend this place!
Carlos has been very kind.
Appart in a very good position (between the old part of the town and the "modern" centre), clean room and everything as in the pictures!
Super clean room, nice flatmate, big kitchen, central flat, metro and supermarket in walking distance (3-5 minutes) !
Highly recommended place! The apartment is conveniently located between two metro stations, with a walking distance to Baixa and even Castello Sao Jorge (if you enjoy sightseeing on foot). Room was quiet, rather small but comfortable with a large bed, and two bathrooms are a good idea, as the place gets busy sometimes. We stayed for 3 nights and didn't meet the hosts but were welcomed by Carlos the roommate. We are very grateful for precious tips regarding dining in Lisbon and places worth visiting along the coast! :)
acceptable place in good location to downtown. The rooms are a bit smaller than they appear in the pics and there are quite a few people lodging there. A bit of a students place, however fairly clean and quiet.
We didn't meet hte hosts, but Carlos was friendly.
The room war fine. The flat ist located near a Subway Station. The citycenter ist within walking distance. Carlos war friendly and already helpful.

text: If there is already a thread about this please let me know as i don't want to waste anyone's time but i was not able to find one. I am wanting to put 4 off road lights behind my grill. 2 of them being low beams and 2 of them being high beams. I have an 09 siverado LT which has separate hi/low beams and no fog lights. I want to connect the low beams to my stock low beams so that they would run at the same time, but also run them to an on/off switch inside the cab. for the high beams, i want to run them directly into my stock high beams so when i turn my hi beams on, the off road lights turn on also. How exactly would i do this and what would i need? ALso does anyone have any recommendations on a light that has quality but still does not break the bank? Someone mentioned the HELLA 500 series. I don't know much about lights so any help would be appreciated. Aso i have 6K HID's in my low beams as of now. Would i be able to convert the low beam off road lights into HID's in the future if i wanted to? If anyone has done this to their vehicle pictures and description on how it was done would be great!

DEBKAfile January 18, 2013, 5:44 PM (GMT+02:00)
The offer, relayed by a Mauritanian news site, comes from Moktar Belmoktar, head of an al Qaeda splinter group. He demands that the United States free Egyptian Omar Abdel-Rahman, the Blind Sheikh, convicted of masterminding the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and Pakistani-American neuroscientist Aafia Siddiqui, who was jailed for 86 yearsfor trying to kill US troops and FBI agents in Afghanistan four years ago. In return two American hostages claimed to be held at the Algerian In Amenas gas field will be freed.

You fellas need to get out of the past and focus on the here and now.
I'm talking about UMass. If we look at the here and now, every team is 0-0.
Grand Valley has won national championships, too.
Your bringing division II into this?
This week the Wolverines are playing the Hoosiers. I'm predicting that 100 points will be scored.
I'll take the under.
It's a long a storied past. Check this out: Michigan vs. Northwestern, 1960. Photo by Henri Cartier-Bresson. A legend in photography captures an American legend. If you look close, you can spot Nemo, with binoculars, just behind seated man with banner. It's a little work, but if you want to see Nemo, it's the 5th photo down. http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4104/5019900790_60f343b81f_b.jpg
Edited it to a direct link, there was some nudity further down the page.
You all should crush a terrible Indiana team today. (I keep adding points to the totals but this should be enough... U of M 42 Indiana 20
Too quiet in here. Probably not too thrilled with that victory over a crappy Indiana team, but a win is a win. You are 5-0. Same as us. Next week someone has to lose, though. To beat MSU You will need more than Denard to step up big on offense PLUS fix your defense PLUS hope our quarterback makes a couple more stupid throws. I hope U of M stays ranked above us. I like the psychological advantage. Ever since that Mike midget guy labeled us "little brother" U of M hasn't beaten MSU. As Dantonio prophetically uttered after his comment, "Pride goeth before the fall". Should be a rock em sock em battle, though. When these two get together you never know. It will be fun.
if we had just a bad defense, we could compete for a national title.... this team's def is well is so much worse then last years its not even funny (mind you last years was the worse in school history). the question is can we get enough breaks on def to win a shootout. we might need to score 50 next week to win....
50 pts is right...never have I seen a defense allow so many 3rd and 4th down conversions.....and still wind up winning the game. I thought that TO at the goal line by Robinson was going to come back and haunt them and it almost did if not for the interception thrown by Chappel that may have been the only bright spot by the Wolverine secondary. 494 Yards by D-Rob today and 5 TD's..continues to lead the Heisman watch... Was it me or did it sound like the classy Hoosier students were chanting "break his legs" and cheered when he went down injured in the third.. With MSU, Iowa and Penn State coming up.....do they win 2 of 3 or lose all three of them....
I think Sparta should take the hit for the family. DRob has the Heisman all but sewd up. Let it stay that way. ******* But with Spartas bigger win against Whiskey maybe Wolvers step aside. ******* "Never go against the Family, ever."
Meaningless stats of the day... Time of Possession Wolverines 18:13 Hoosiers 41:47 First Downs Wolverines 15 Hoosiers 35 Final Score Wolverines 42 Hoosiers 35
When those stats happen next week, we be doomed... :Cry:
I'm guessing but UoM average gain per play ~ 50yd.
Denard racing toward his own end zone after seeing Greg Jones on UM's first offensive series Thee...think you'll get more entertainment watching Le'Veon Bell. Watch him carry a pack of Badgers for yards after the first down...about the 23 second mark YouTube - Michigan State 34 Wisconsin 24 Michigan has the BT's 3rd worst defense against the run and is dead last in pass defense (by a large margin) through the powderpuff season. State's offense is gonna run through them like crap through a goose if Cousins keeps brain farts to a minimum. State is 3rd best against the rush, trailing Iowa and OSU. Pass defense sucked early on but has been improving. Special teams have been awesome. He's been fun to watch but Shoelace should consider tying them this weekend (they might end up in the 2nd level ). UM's one-man-band will be exposed as they hit the meat of the BT schedule
So who do you think is gonna win?
@ detteam. Thanks for the laugh. I honestly was cracking up at that post and I'm still chuckling. Hard to type. Everything you said is true, I think. But I still think it may all go bad for us. I need to believe. I believe...I believe...

What To Wear To Every Campus Event!
"Since the contest, I've been busy expanding my nonprofit organization, The SEGway Project. I went back to Nepal and now I'm planning a trip to visit our newest girls' soccer team in Kenya! In October, Seventeen Editor-in-Chief Ann Shoket and I were on the Today Show to talk all about the Pretty Amazing contest and how it's changed my life. I was a guest speaker at the 10X10 Global Girls' Education launch event in New York City, and also attended She's the First's first-ever Leadership Summit in NYC: Representatives from 35 different universities and high schools were there! It was awesome to meet all of the other She's the First campus leaders from around the country!
On top of all of this, I've been busy finishing my senior year at Notre Dame. My friends and I recently traveled to Miami to watch our football team play in the BCS National Championship game. While I was there, I met up with fellow Pretty Amazing finalist Chloe, and we had so much fun together!"
"Since the contest, I've gotten to do some really fun interviews with different dance blogs and organizations. It's been so exciting to share my story and get awesome feedback from other teens who found my life inspiring!
Now I'm in the middle of my performance season with Miami City Ballet. I just performed my very first 'tutu ballet' with the company, which was really exciting! I had so much fun on stage, and it was definitely my favorite show yet. Our season is going to continue through May, and then I'll have some time to relax and hopefully get home to Minnesota to see my family. I'm loving every minute of performing and I'm truly living my dream!"

Vick seems like he may have been the recipient of one of the worst contracts in NFL history. Can they really expect him to ever play a full season again at this point?
Vick will have most of his guaranteed money paid after next season, he'll be 32 and injury prone in 2013, Eagles have to be expecting to cut him at that point. They might look to QB in the 1st round if one of the top 4 are available next year (i.e., Griffin or Jones).

Scott Kara talks to US music producer Derek Smith about his finely tuned dance music
Derek Smith is a music geek of the highest order. The American producer, better known as Pretty Lights, constructs his down-tempo hip-hop-meets-electronic dance songs like he's putting together a flash, finely crafted bespoke house. The attention to detail is impeccable, and the hours of labour involved are intense and dedicated.
And for his latest album, due out in the next few months, he's taken his music-making to new extremes.
"It's an experiment where I really set out to challenge myself," says the affable, chatty 30-year-old on the phone from his home in Denver, Colorado, ahead of his show at Auckland's Studio tonight.
Whereas his past recordings were made with a combination of live instrumentation and vinyl samples, akin to the likes of DJ Shadow, on the new album he wanted to retain his trademark vintage, old-school sound but he didn't want to use samples.
"I basically went into a number of studios in Brooklyn, New Orleans and Detroit and recorded a bunch of music that I wrote myself, from ambient piano music to a full band with horn sections and singers, and then all that music was taken from the tape and pressed to vinyl, so I've essentially created a crate of records so I can sample myself," he laughs.
"So I'm sampling and cutting up everything from there, so it still sounds like sample-based hip-hop electronic music but I made it all myself."
Have you ever met a bigger music geek? But you have to admire the guy's passion - and Smith is such a likeable, down-to-earth guy as he describes his goal to fuse everything from "1940s French film soundtracks" and 70s Brazilian funk to bog-standard blues and folk music into one cohesive whole.
And rest assured, if his previous music is anything to go by, he will come up with songs that get your head nodding, make your limbs go all liquidy, and then boot you in the bum to get your groove on.
"It's hip-hop, down-tempo, but in a banging 2013 dancing style. I just want to inspire people to commit to making original music and evolving music in general," he says of the new album, which includes a guest spot from legendary New York rapper Nas.
"We met and we really connected and he really wanted to rap on one of these tracks I had and he was saying, 'man, these tracks are so dope, it's like early 90s but so 2012'."
Another thing that makes Smith unique is the fact he has given away most of his music - or asked for a donation - for the past six years. He started offering free downloads of the first Pretty Lights album, Taking Up Your Precious Time, in 2006. He based it simply on the premise that he wanted people to be able to get his music easily so it would spread by word of mouth.
He was ahead of his time in this regard. "People say, 'oh, you copied Radiohead ...' Ah, no, I actually did that first," he says of the British band's 2007 release In Rainbows which you could buy on a "pay what you want" deal.
Though the first album uptake was good, when second album, Filling Up the City Skies, came out in 2008 the download rate went from 200 downloads a month to more than 10,000.
"I only realised it was working when I played my first show outside of Colorado and it was sold out. I thought, 'you know what, this f****** works'. So at that point I continued to give my music away for free because it helped build up my live show and gain more momentum."
These days his smallest live shows in the US draw 3000 and his biggest around 10,000. So Smith is doing okay, although with the upcoming release of the new album he is trying to figure out how to make a bit of money from it.
"I'm kind of still in the process of [working out] how I'm going to move forward," he ponders. "I don't want to stop what I've been doing for the last six years, but I want to be creative about how I release this record.
"If you can, I would encourage you to purchase this next one, but," he says with a laugh, "if you can't then I'm still going to make it available for free."

One win. Just one win.
It's easier said than done, of course, but the right result at West Bromwich Albion on Sunday would secure a third-place finish for Arsenal and book their spot in next season's Champions League.
That would be some achievement considering where the Club began September 2011 - in 17th place and under fire.
Arsène Wenger and his players have fought back ever since and, thanks to a seven-match winning streak, they have their Champions League destiny in their own hands.
Hopefully this FREE video clip will give you confidence as the season reaches its climax. It features some of the highlights of Arsenal's campaign so far - slowed down for maximum effect.
Click the PLAY button, enjoy... and get behind the team one last time on Sunday.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

Modeling the way air moves around buildings and other objects is a multidimensional challenge
Catherine Clabby
For decades, Alan Huber has appreciated the power of computational fluid dynamics to predict how flows of air interact with objects. He saw it applied first to airplane wings and spacecraft while studying aerospace engineering at the Pennsylvania State University. As a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency researcher, he applied the tool to more complex problems such as predicting how winds might carry pollutants in built environments. Now an adjunct professor with the Institute for the Environment at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Huber is modeling air flows in no less complex a landscape than downtown Manhattan. At its core, this is a numbers game involving calculations possible only with high-performance computing. But the solutions would be useless, Huber says, without visualizations created by collaborators. Images can portray very complex flow behavior. Examining the modeled flows helps Huber assess the viability of his solutions. Associate Editor Catherine Clabby interviewed Huber about his efforts.
American Scientist: Why do we need a numerical simulation of a real environment as complex as Manhattan?
Huber: It's not possible to measure a full domain the size of Manhattan. If you measure in one spot, you can't predict what the wind is going to do down the block. In order to understand what happens in these complex streetscapes, you need to create a model. That provides a virtual environment in which we can explore different what-if scenarios and try to understand the processes that occur. We can ask: How can we minimize an adverse environmental effect or maximize the potential for solar energy or for wind power? How should we change the design if we build a new urban area? What would be affected by how we place the buildings and design their shapes?
American Scientist: What were the challenges to creating this particular model?
Huber: Manhattan has a lot of complex buildings and no two are alike. First it's very important to find a source of geometry that represents all the buildings. Fortunately there were applications in the cell-phone industry that generated databases of building geometries. To get a simulation solution, we have to divide a domain up into a number of smaller volumes, which we then assign solutions representing environmental variables there. Because of the complex geometries in a city, we have complex volumes. That doesn't arise when looking at flow over an airplane wing. You can use a rather uniform mesh of volumes. That was a very large challenge, finding and applying software that would actually develop a mesh made up of volumes that was uniform enough to support stable numerical solutions. The buildings aren't aerodynamic. There's a lot of chaos in the flow. And with 54 million cells, you need the computing capacity to solve this.
American Scientist: What resolution have you achieved so far?
Huber: Presently the solutions are in the order of one to four cubic meters. They naturally grow larger as you get away from the building surfaces. We like to have at least 10 volumes across streets, what we call street canyons. That gives enough resolution to capture the main flow features.
American Scientist: How do the visualizations allow you to judge the accuracy of the models?
Huber: Without visualization, I have just a large mass of incomprehensible numbers. I could pick out a few. But that doesn't show me what's going on in these complex environments where there are no two points with the same solution.
Having the ability to visualize, I can identify flow behaviors that appear unrealistic. That's important to capture. In some cases there are real field measurements out there, but in a few isolated points. You want to see patterns around those points.
American Scientist: What are potential applications for these models?
Huber: Pollution or other harmful substances can be transported by winds, so tracing them is one application. Also, those winds produce forces on building surfaces. If people locate solar panels or wind turbines on buildings, understanding interactions with the wind is very important. This could be helpful in many scenarios where winds are part of a solution, say when an urban planner is designing a new city or adding a new building. They can ask: How does this affect the pattern of winds?
American Scientist: What would you like, one day, to add to the models?
Huber: Presently I simulate the wind. That produces solutions with gigabytes of information. I would like to add additional environmental variables such as solar heat. I'd like to add air chemistry. When you have a mixture of chemicals in an environment such as Manhattan, you have chemical reactions going on. That can change some things. I'd like to consider the thermal impact from the shadowing of different buildings. And I'd like to achieve finer resolution. Adding chemistry and solar energy to the wind may require some finer scales to simulate correctly. But every time you add variability, it takes more computing capacity. Fortunately, with today's advanced hardware and software, we can begin to tackle this. Also, fortunately, buildings don't fly and crash. The fine accuracy of my solutions doesn't have to be the same as those capturing air flow over an airfoil.

City asks job applicants for passwords
City asks applicants for Internet passwords
HELENA, Mont. – Job applicants with the city of Bozeman are finding that their private Internet discussions and pictures may not be so private after all.
The city is asking job seekers for the user names and passwords to Internet social networking or Web groups to which they belong.
The city argues that it only uses the information to verify application information — and says it won't hold it against anyone for refusing to provide it. City officials say such checks can be useful, especially when hiring police officers and others in a position of public trust.

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by Joshmil53, Nov 1, 2012.
Dez has 6 drops, and the stone handed Austin has 0 so far.
except Miles seems not to get to passes thrown by our QB whereas Dez does
Dez has 46+-1 catchable targets and Miles has 34.
Miles may not have the stone hands this year, but he still seems to toss the ball up every time he catches it. Makes my heart stop every time.
They both need to play to their potential.
Miles is a playmaker. Good things happen when we go to him.
He had a play last week on the int that did not look good, but more often that not, he will come down with that ball.
Miles should get more jump balls thrown his way. The dude has over a 40 inch vertical for crying out loud. I remember when he was first making a name for himself he had a few plays where he went up and got it between defenders.
except miles runs the correct route, whereas dez does not.
Neither one seems to get open so it doesn't matter....oh yeah, just another bash dez thread too.....
Both Dez and Miles get open. Dez gets open pretty easily. Problem is he does it while running the wrong route.
It is? I love Dez.
Maybe he's on to something. I see coaching in his future.
Miles Austin and Dez Bryant are on pace for over 1,000 yards receiving however I want to see more deep routes...
Why wait?
Sign him up now.

A reminder to all producers: alluding to iconic romantic comedies in a bid for legitimacy can be a dangerous game, even when you have appealing stars. Here two luminous actresses — Kate Winslet and Cameron Diaz — play lovelorn thirtysomethings who swap houses for the holidays. A thin premise, but ripe for mistaken identities and general high jinks. Diaz meets Jude Law (usually box-office poison, but winningly vulnerable here); Winslet engages Jack Black, a non-threatening foil. Diaz can look like an ice queen when swathed in cashmere, but Nancy Meyers, as a director and screenwriter, is a safe box-office bet, though her movies tend to run long and she's not nearly as charming as she thinks she is. In summary: putting Eli Wallach in your movie as an aging Hollywood legend is cute, but including an actual scene from His Girl Friday is a reminder that we could be watching that movie instead.

Cheep taxi´s gets you to the old quarter for a mere 5 euros, but there are also some nice and very cheap restaurants in the neighbourhood.. The apartment had a nice terrasse with a fine view.
Not so good: The elevator made pretty much noise in the Apartment. HOwever, it was perhaps only 3-4 times at evening time. The kitchen was populated with hundreds of ants. There was a bad smell form the sewer in the refrigerator which we were unable to clean lacking a screwdriver.
The TV's reception had a red glow, but there were lot´s of channels, not that it mattered that much. The two metal tables on the terrasse was so crooked that it was dangerous putting cups or glasses on them. When we had lunch out there one day, we had to bring out the big round table form the living room.
By cleaning the sewer, killing the ants, a new TV-set, two new tables on the terrasse, you´ll have a very fine Apartment at a good Price.
All was well in orde.we were even earlier int apartment. Thank you for this. The only downside was the smell of the sewers, it smelled so bright at night that we were sick of it. When it rained last night, then went off the scent. But very Lisbon suffered from it.
Alles was goed in orde.we mochten zelfs al vroeger int appartement. Dank u hiervoor. Het enige nadeel was de geur van de riolen, het stonk zo fel dat we snachts er misselijk van werden. Toen het de laatste nacht geregend had, toen ging de geur weg. Maar heel Lissabon had er last van.
The flat was as described, nicely furnitured. We were 4 people, the appartement was well suited for 4 persons, but in my opinion not for more persons.
The welcome was very very pleasant, Antonio gave us valuable tips for our trip.
The apartment has a very good location, not far to a supermarket, you can walk into the city, and 20 metres from the building you have a great kind of bakery where we had breakfast every day.
Very centrally located. In the apartment everything available that is needed. Pleasant trouble contact. Terrace optimal. Shopping and nice restaurants available nearby.
Sehr zentral gelegen. In der Wohnung alles vorhanden was benötigt wird. Angenehmer problemloser Kontakt. Terrasse optimal. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und nette Restaurants in der Nähe vorhanden.
nice flat
nice people for welcoming us
nice furbished
just one point that was not an inconvenience for us but could be for others, the machinery of the the lift make some noise at night.
to recommend
Great apartment iff your staying with friends! It has a nice terace with a beautifull view! In our opinion it's the best what you can get for this price!
Thnax for your hospitality!
It was really nice to visit Lisbon and stay in this apartment. This cozy and good located place was a nice spot to rest after all day sightseeing.
El apartamento es tal cual se ve en las fotos...salvo que olvidan comentar que el motor del ascensor da al dormitorio y hace un ruido considerable, y que falta algo de mantenimiento..bombillas fundidas...limpieza regular...
The apartment is just as you see at the pictures, but they forgot saying the elevator's engine is close to the main bedroom and it is considerably noise, and also there is cleaning and maintenance shortage..

Van Gogh Masterpieces from Around the World on View this Summer at the National Gallery of Canada
Ottawa, Canada - 19 mai, 1999
For the first time in history, seven of the most important flower subject paintings by Vincent Van Gogh will be united for an exclusive world-wide premiere at the National Gallery of Canada. Van Gogh's Irises: Masterpiece in Focus, opens 11 June and continues until 19 September 1999. This highly-focused exhibition which centres on the National Gallery's own masterpiece, Iris (1889), brings to Canada for the first and only time the celebrated painting Irises, from the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, California, as well as the paintings Long Grass with Butterflies, from the National Gallery, London, England, Still Life: Irises, from the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and Roses, from the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. The exhibition will examine the development and significance of the Iris motif in Van Gogh's work during his self-imposed hospitalization in 1889 in an asylum in Saint-Rémy, in the south of France. The National Gallery in Ottawa will be the only venue in the world for this exclusive show.
" This is an exceptional reunion of the Getty Museum's Irises and the National Gallery's own Iris since they were last together in Van Gogh's studio in May 1889. This exhibition presents a once in a lifetime opportunity to see such a rare and outstanding selection of masterpieces by one of the world's most beloved artists. This marks a special occasion for the public to acquire a deeper understanding and enjoyment of Iris, one of the icons of our national collection, " explained Pierre Théberge, Director, National Gallery of Canada, "while enjoying the unique opportunity to view the ambitious, expansive Irises, on loan from the J. Paul Getty Museum for the first time since it was acquired by them in 1990. We are extremely grateful to the lending institutions for the loans of their highly prized masterpieces and for their generous collaboration".
In addition to these two powerful examples of Van Gogh's mastery, the exhibition features an additional selection of five oil paintings and two works on paper, drawn from the Gallery's permanent collection or on loan from prestigious museums around the world. " Through generous loans, it has been possible to widen the focus of this undertaking to include other superb examples of Van Gogh's œuvre, and to grasp the
extraordinary maturation of his artistic vision", stated Colin B. Bailey, organizer of the exhibition, and Deputy Director and Chief Curator at the National Gallery of Canada.
In May 1889, Vincent Van Gogh decided to be a voluntary patient at the asylum of Saint-Paul-de-Mausole in Saint-Rémy where he was diagnosed to have a form of epilepsy. Between bouts of illness, he devoted himself to his paintings and drawings. One of his first paintings focused on the irises that grew in the garden of the asylum. This exhibition reunites paintings from his year at Saint-Rémy and includes work from the beginning of his career. While based on nature, these paintings also reveal Van Gogh's keen interest in colour theory, in the intensity created by juxtaposing different hues. His dynamic brushwork suggests the energy that the artist directed to his work.
Early on during his convalescence at the asylum, Van Gogh complained to his brother, "My stay here is very wearisome because of its monotony, and in the end I shall lose my energy.." The paintings assembled in Van Gogh's Irises: Masterpiece in Focus affirm, both loudly and joyously, that the very opposite was in fact the case. During the year spent in the confines of this provençal hospital, Van Gogh painted many of his most vigorous, assured, and ambitious compositions – a substantial group of which have been assembled for exhibition at the National Gallery of Canada.
A fully-illustrated colour brochure and an audioguide have been produced in English and French editions, and are available in the Great Hall. Lectures, tours and a workshop have been organized to complement the exhibition. Please call the National Gallery for information or visit our Web site at http://national.gallery.ca.
The National Gallery of Canada gratefully acknowledges the sponsorship of The Iris Club, AIM Mutual Funds, and Air France, as well as CBC, Radio-Canada and The Château Laurier.
Van Gogh's Irises: Masterpiece in Focus is presented concurrently with the Gallery's major Daumier exhibition, on view from 11 June to 6 September. Tickets are time and date specific, and permit entry to both exhibitions. They may be purchased in person at the National Gallery of Canada or by telephone at (613) 998-8888 or toll-free 1-888-541-8888. Service charges apply. Admission is $12 for adults, $10 for students and seniors, and free to Friends and visitors under 18, but a ticket is required.
The exhibitions will be open daily from 10 am to 6 pm, and beginning 1 July, until 8 pm on Thursdays.
A media preview will take place on Wednesday 9 June at 10 am in the Great Hall. A tour of the exhibition by organizer Colin B. Bailey, Deputy Director and Chief Curator, National Gallery of Canada, will be followed by a luncheon. Viewing continues until 4 pm.

Higher welfare----
I think I know what you mean. Just want to make sure.
Does it mean better for the health of the person eating it?

Re: Higher welfare----
I'd assume it means higher welfare for the animal. I don't think there would be sufficient medical studies to make a link to better health for the person eating it.
Higher welfare is hard to determine here in Australia. The classification of free range chickens (either for meat or for eggs) is fairly loose and recently some producers have been fined for false advertising because they made the conditions sound better than they were. They are trying to improve it but legislation is slow.
