Program Memorandum - OVAE/DVTE FY 2000-2
|October 15, 1999
|State Directors of Vocational-Technical Education
State Directors of Community, Technical and Junior Colleges
State Tech-Prep Coordinators
|Patricia W. McNeil
|Distribution of Funds to Secondary School Programs in Fiscal Year 2000 and Succeeding Fiscal Years under Section 131(b)(1) of the Carl D. Perkins Vocational and Technical Education Act of 1998 (Perkins III)
Many States have inquired about problems they are having obtaining the data required for the distribution of funds under the Carl D. Perkins Vocational and Technical Education Act of 1998 (Perkins III) to secondary school programs in fiscal year 2000 and beyond. Under section 131(b)(1) of Perkins III, the eligible agency must allocate the 30% of the funds available for secondary programs to local educational agencies (LEAs) in proportion to the number of individuals aged 15 to 19 who reside in the school district served by the LEA in the preceding fiscal year compared to the total number of such individuals who reside in school districts served by all LEAs in the State for that year. Although we did not expect eligible agencies to have problems with the data needed to allocate this 30% of the funds under section 131(b)(1), some problems have arisen. The focus of this memorandum is to present permissible options regarding the data needed for distribution of funds using the 30% factor.Availability of Data Described in Section 131(b)(1)
We understand that States cannot allocate funds as described in law above. The Department has explored the availability of other data. We have determined that either the NCES enrollment [also known as, 'membership'] data or the Census data regarding the number of individuals 5-17 who reside in the school district served by the LEA has a very high degree of correlation with the data required under Section 131(b)(1). The NCES enrollment data is available at: http://nces.ed.gov/pubsearch/pubsinfo.asp?pubid=2006155.
The Department has concluded that, if an eligible agency were to use either the NCES enrollment data or the 5-17 database described above in its alternative formula as a substitute for the data required by section 131(b)(1), we would accept the substitution as meeting the requirements of section 131(c) for the 30% part of the formula in section 131(b)(1). Further, we would accept an eligible agency's use of either database as the criterion to judge whether a different proposed waiver formula from the eligible agency meets the more equitable distribution test under section 131(c) below. An eligible agency may request a waiver as part of the State plan or separately.Waiver to Allow the Use of Alternative Data
States may also request a waiver using other data. Section 131(c) of Perkins III provides for a waiver for more equitable distribution if an alternative formula better targets funds on the basis of poverty. It provides:
(c) Waiver for More Equitable Distribution.--The Secretary may waive the application of subsection (b) in the case of any eligible agency that submits to the Secretary an application for such a waiver that -
(1) demonstrates that a proposed alternative formula more effectively targets funds on the basis of poverty (as defined by the Office of Management and Budget and revised annually in accordance with section 673(2) of the Community Services Block Grant Act (42 U.S.C. 9902(2)) to [LEAs] within the State than the formula described in subsection (b); and
(2) includes a proposal for such an alternative formula.
The NCES enrollment data is from 1997, and thus, is the most recent data available. Among the advantages of the ages 5-17 database is that it was updated by the Census Bureau in 1995 and relates to LEA (NCES type 1 and 2 districts) boundaries for the 1995-96 school year. By law, the Census Bureau will update these data every two years. Data based on school district boundaries for 1999/2000 is due to be available as early as November 1999. In addition, the 15-19 database will be updated using 1997/1998 data. It will be available for both parts of the formula in April 2001, and we will expect States to use it at that time as described in the law. This school district data can be found at the Census web site at: http://www.census.gov/housing/saipe/sd95/USSD95.dat.Adjusting the Databases
Whichever database is chosen, it should be adjusted by State personnel to reflect changes in LEA boundaries since 1995 and to include LEAs without geographical boundaries such as charter schools that are LEAs and secondary schools funded by the BIA. Under section 131(i), an eligible agency must treat secondary schools funded by the BIA as LEAs for the purposes of distributing the secondary school funds. In addition, under section 133(d), an eligible agency must distribute funds to charter schools in the same manner as to other schools. The eligible agency's allocation plan must ensure that charter schools receive the appropriate funds for which they are eligible in accordance with the Charter School Expansion Act of 1998 (P.L. 105-278). Further guidance will be forthcoming from the Department on these requirements.
Since the 5-17 data are also being used for allocations under Title I of Elementary and Secondary Education Act, we recommend that State vocational education directors coordinate their efforts to reflect changed LEA boundaries and LEAs without boundaries with the State's Title I personnel.
Please note that this memorandum has not been assigned an OMB control number under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3507(d)) because it is not intended as an information collection instrument. Therefore, you are not required to respond to it as an information collection. Please see section VI of the State plan guide for more detailed information on addressing these financial requirements in your State plan. If you have any questions or need additional information on these matters, please contact Mr. Jon Weintraub at (202) 205-5602.

I did not do as good as I expected. However, I thought it was one of the best courses I have ever taken. Tons of good information. My notes were not good but that was my own fault. I would have liked to have been provided this in printed form. The hip chapter did not print and caused me some difficulty.
Progression through each injury was logical and straightforward. This make it easy to document the rehabilitation process for future reference.
Well written, precise and comprehensive.
Excellent, applicable overviews of client rehabilitation programs for each of the common conditions found in post injury/post surgical clients.
Comprehensive and practical advice for many common problems.
Need videos for all of these.
Lots of information, but it all was very necessary.
Some questions covered material never discussed in the course. Some question answers contradict what I read in Dr. DiNubile's books. Some questions contradict information I found from physical therapists online.
ACE RESPONSE: Mary Ellen, thank you for your course review. An ACE staff member will be in touch soon to address your concerns.
Excellent resource with lots of helpful information.
I don't like when I miss a question on the quiz and the correct answer is not given when the quiz is scored. It is not helpful to me to tell me how I answered the question unless you tell me the correct response and my answer. I already understand my logic from the reading material. I would like to know the correct response and why it is deemed correct. Maybe even to go so far as to give a page number in the material to reference when I go back to look it up.
Absolutely ridiculous!!! You need to read 67 pages ONLINE of sophisticated, highly technical
and medical material that is intended for a doctor or physical therapist, not a personal trainer or group instructor! And take notes???? hah NEVER accept any "bundle" unless it is hard copy. I actually needed to print out the 67 pages, and still used Google to answer some of the intricate, complex quiz questions. There was no index or table of contents, either.
I do not believe that our ACE specialists who charged $316.00 for the bundle, would even be capable of passing this test? I PASSED, but missed 9 questions...more than I have ever missed
on any other test that I can remember. It was embarrassing. The additional two books (hard copies) were excellent, informative and helpful. A frustrating experience in re-certification.
And I have re-certified every 2 years since 1991.
The course content was good, however the e-book format was terrible. A proper book is much better study aid.
Very indepth and informative. Exactly the type of reference I was looking for, although I wish that it wasn't a single chapter.
This is far better than the "Framework" Series, which shouldn't be included in the program at all, because theyre for the layperson that is new to working out, not the advanced health fitness specialist.
Written for the professional personal trainer. Very concise and packed with excellent information. No fluff.
Very thorough overview covering many pathologies of common ailments in todays society, without getting so technical that it would become difficult to understand. I was pleased with the course.
Very Challenging. Felt that some questions were trick questions.
ACE RESPONSE: Thank you Dominic for your feedback.
Lots of good and practical information.
This is three chapters from a textbook - an easy read, but it seemed like an interactive module from the description, so I was a little disappointed. I did like how all of the lower extremity injuries were described in the same manner: description of injury, signs and symptoms, precautions, interventions, and restorative program (flexibility, strengthening, and functional integration). This way of laying out the information makes it easy to read and even easier to go back and look up information that I want to know. But, there is a good bit of information that gets repeated because each chapter is written by a different author.
I answered question 34 incorrectly. I went back to my studies and looked it up. If I had to answer it again, I would answer it the same way. Would you please help me understand. Thank you.
ACE RESPONSE: Thank you Carolyn for your feedback. An ACE representative will reach out to you shortly.
Because the pages for the answers to the questions are not given in the question it is more time-consuming to reread and search for the answers...
Informative, but dull. Material wasn't all relevant to what I was seeking. (I'm not a medical professional, I'm a personal trainer!)
ACE RESPONSE: Thank you for your feedback. An ACE representitive will contact you shortly.
This a must do for all trainers, i would however like to see more detail on the upper body dysfunctions,but overall excellent
ACE RESPONSE: Thank you for the feedback! We hope you can incorporate it with your clients!
It's a PDF file taken from the Advanced Healht and Fitness Specialist Manual. You're basically reading a textbook so it isn't the most fun but the information is useful.
The information contained in the course is an absolute must for personal trainers!
One correction needs to be made to the exam. #2- "weight bearing as tolerated" is in the minimal protection phase. This was my answer and it was marked incorrectly. Support for this answer is on pages 421-422 (chapter 17 of AFHS book). Thanks
FROM ACE: Thank you for your feedback and catch of this error. It has been corrected and the revised quiz is now available.

This model of Greenwich Village, built with nearly 50,000 LEGO pieces, is inspired by the bustle of the famed trendy historic district of New York City.
Built over the course of 6 months, the model contains 18 detailed buildings and scores of New Yorkish details... from taxicabs and tourists to parking meters and authentic signage.
DetailsThe model doesn't attempt to replicate any particular place or any specific buildings; The goal was to imitate the feel of the atmosphere, the clutter, and the bustle of this bohemian part of Manhattan.
Street lifeAt crosswalks, LEGO citizens pause at "don't walk" signs with toes down to the pavement, waiting for a gap in traffic large to cross through. Workers load packages into a metal door opened up from the sidewalk. A tourist looks up and pauses to snap a photo, obstructing pedestrian flow on a busy sidewalk. A turning car tries to squeeze through a line of pedestrians crossing a busy avenue. Standpipes, subway grates, parking meters... the more you look, the more there is to see!
The VillageTo replicate the effect that real Greenwich Village is a neighborhood where buildings are charming, not imposing, Sean built the upper floors of the buildings in a smaller-than-possible scale, too short for even a LEGO mini-figure to stand. Taking a page from Disney World's "Main Street USA" where buildings are built to 7/8 scale, this gives the structures a "quaint" feeling, while still looking realistic.
There are no skyscrapers in this part of New York, and large parts of "The Village" are Historic Districts comprised of small, old, beautiful buildings with lots of character. The neigborhood is always bustling with hundreds of places to eat, an active night life, quirky shops, and lots of charming narrow streets serviced by wide, busy avenues.
Murray's Bagels
Named after Sean's favorite New York City bagel place, this little red walkup building has a seperate entrance for the apartments above. Fun details include window air conditioners, venetian blinds, window shades with pullstrings, and a personal satellite dish on the roof.
Alas, New York City cannot go 4 blocks without a Starbucks, and a LEGO New York is no exception. Actually located inside one of the buildings in this Greenwich Village model, this Starbucks has all the amenities needed for a quick but costly caffiene recharge.
Random Irish Pub
This tavern was inspired by one of Sean's favorite Irish pubs, "Fiddlesticks", on Greenwich Street in the West Village. In the model, the front of the pub opens up on nice days, and tables are set up on the sidewalk. Above the tavern is a few floors of apartments, serviced by some fire escapes on the side of the building.
Residential street
This residental street contains several different turn-of-the-century walkup townhouses. Note the stone stairways and ironworking , and the unique cornices. The street is also tightly lined with trees, with narrower sidewalks; this is common on many of quieter side streets of the city. (If any part of Manhattan can be considered quiet.)
Old building with modern addition
This is an early 1900's city walkup that has received a more modern-looking extra floor on the top. The lower section of the building still has fire escapes, and there's a Chinese restaurant at street level.
Brickfaced "federal" style townhome
A brick facade was simulated by using 3 different shades of red LEGO elements. This small townhome would date back to the early 1800s, and is is squeezed between a tall glass mid-rise and a late 1960s apartment block.
Joined buildings
These are two old buildings on a busy street that were eventually bought by the same landlord so that a large avenue-facing retail space could be created. The walls on the ground floor were replaced with plate glass, and the old rear and side windows of the white building were bricked up.
The age of this brownstone is evident in its old chimneys that were used for fireplace heat, long ago. It has since been updated with a central air conditioning system, located on the roof. The building is 2 lots wide and, as is common with such buildings, has two seperate entrances serving each half of the building.
Pre-war elevator building
This ornate building has two retail floors downstairs, and offices on the upper floors. The roof is loaded with gizmos: A central air conditioning unit, cell towers, a water tower, etc. The building also has an under-sidewalk loading bay and a garage on its side.
Parking lot
This is a typical Manhattan parking lot, where the attendants jam as many cars onto the pavement as possible. In the back are lifts that raise cars up high enough to park another underneath, which are very common throughout New York City. (Many people not native to New York often find these to be the most ridiculous looking invention ever.)

lacqer primer over sealer primer
Is it ok to spray lacquer primer over sealer primer?
I just want to know if it is Ok?
I would not use laquer products on a car. Tell us what you are trying to do so we can better answer your question.
It's not OK to spray lacquer primer over anything! :nono: Why are you using lacquer primer? That stuff is junk and will cause nothing but problems, it and the lacquer based 1k spot putty are both a recipe for disaster because both will continue to shrink for weeks or even months causing all kinds of problems. Even the economy 2k primers are far better than lacquer and since you will not need to use nearly as much of the 2k it will be cheaper too!
It's OK. I've been doing it for years. I keep some mixed Lacquer primer in a syphon cup all the time. It has worked for decades and still does.
I don't know why some people are so down on it. It dries a lot faster than 2K and any shrinkage is finished within minutes.
It shrinks until all the lacquer thinner as flashed, and then it's ready to sand.
That is just plain wrong! That crap continues to shrink for days or weeks sometimes even months if it is applied heavy enough and that is a well known fact! Until I learned better I used both lacquer primer and putty not realizing at the time what was causing my problems, after switching to the 2 part materials it was like night and day there was so much difference after a few weeks. Also there is a tremendous difference in chip resistance when using the 2k products as compared to the lacquer, besides if you use the economy 2k products it will even be cheaper than lacquer so why on earth would anyone want to use that junk? Lacquer is old and outdated technology and to say it worked for years is misleading as it never worked really well, maybe OK for use with lacquer paint but not with todays paints. :nono:
Besides the fact that lacquer is outdated junk in todays paint world, It is possible the harsh solvents in the lacquer could wrinkle and lift an enamel or urethane product if it is applied over an enamel based product that hasn't cured enough. One of the things they taught us was enamels could be used over lacquers but lacquers not okay over enamels.
Many seem to think lacquer is cheap and easy so it makes it a good idea. But when you think about how much better and the greater film build of a 2k urethane, which can be sanded in a reasonable and normally sand realitively easy, and will have less shrinkage then a lacquer, I think the urethane is a better deal. Back in the years I used lacquer, I've had a few instances of bullsyes show up in the paint around repair areas, never once had that using a urethane. Sure lacquer can easily be found in a spray bomb, but if the lack of equiptment is the reason you are using spray bombs, you really should get the proper equiptment and not take shortcuts if you want to produce good long lasting results in the body and paint area.
I got a basic enamel based primer from NAPA ( Martin senour crossfire ) for somthing like $40 per gallon.. it is a 1k
I don't usually have much to say about paint unless I see someone about to make the same mistakes I once did and of the things I needed to learn about that was causing my problems lacquer probably topped the list! I just could not understand why after a few weeks or so I could still see sand scratches if the light was just right and sometimes they were apparent at anytime. I had already figured out that lacquer could not be applied heavy otherwise sandscratchs showing in the paint and seeing the edge of a repair after painting was almost inevitable but switching to 2 part epoxy and urethane primers eliminated these problems. Even if the lacquer did not shrink, which it WILL, if I understand this right the lacquer thinner can cause most surfaces to absorb solvents causing them to swell slightly, shrinking back long after the finish paint has been applied. Lacquer caused me many problems that simply went away with the switch to the 2k primers and as I said before if a person is really tied to a tight budget then the economy 2k is cheaper to use and far better so using lacquer makes zero sense. These problems with scratches showing, etc are not glaring flaws that standout like heavy sandscratches (not usually anyway but sometimes they are!) that were not properly finished but they are quite apparent to most people although I suppose they may be acceptable to others so I guess it just depends on how much pride a person takes in their work. Lacquer primer is junk and it's faults are well known, it will ruin otherwise nice paintwork and with the materials available today it just simply makes no sense to use it!
Lacquer products used to be a flat rate bodyman's best friend because you could turn the work out quickly. Back in my younger days I used to run a service shop. I would say that 9 out of 10 lacquer jobs always came back for something...checking, cracking, shrinking or blushing. Even the cars I did myself usually looked bad after 4 or 5 years. JMO most anything today is better than lacquer, even a spray can of enamel.
I learned bodywork and painting starting back in 1980.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with lacquer based products - unless you're flat layzeeee doing bodywork.
If done correctly there is no more shrinkage than any catalyzed products I've seen. It has more to do with the quality of your bodywork and how far grit-wise you take the filler work out before you start priming.
Catalyzed filler primers have made slap hazard filler work the norm these days IMO
With the extraordinary costs and hazards of spraying modern catalyzed substrates and surfacers, it's no wonder laquer based products are making a resurgence, especially among home builders.
The final thing I'll say about lacquer - it's the only choice for many older cars if you really want a factory type finish or something that doesn't look like plastic.
I have used lacquer primer for years, as I have 2K primers.
If applied properly and sanded well, lacquer works fine. Or, it does for me. I use black lacquer primer for a guide coat as well. It dries very fast, sands easily and is cheap. About $40 a gallon. I haven't found any 2k that cheap.
Another thing, it does not set up in the cup. That's why I keep some in my syphon cup. It's easy to just grab the spray gun and apply a little primer.
With 2K, you have to use it all or waste it. It will set up in the cup. I just can't see pouring out good money because I mixed up a little to much 2K.
Shrinkage: If you lay the lacquer primer on really thick, you will get shrinkage. I usually spray on light coats, and sand in a few minutes. It fills small imperfections and blends the edges of plastic filler very well.
2k will shrink, it too has solvents in it. Down side, you have to wait several hours to sand 2k.
If any one can tell me where I can get 2k primer with it's activator and reducer with shipping and handling for less than $48.00 a gallon, I will surely be getting some.
i have been a painter for 40 years. i dont do it as a hobby. lacquer is one of the hardest paints to use properly. it is also misused by most people who use it. people use it because they cant paint and think it wont run or sag so it must be easier. wrong. it is to be applied wet and thin. just about every home job done in lacquer will have a life of about a year. then it will check and have to be removed. any solvent will soak into and lift it including gas.
just for the record if you have to sand and buff lacquer you did it wrong.
Shine I don't think he was asking about using lacquer paint he is wanting to use lacquer primer.
Lacquer primer is a disaster in the making so if anyone wants to believe it wont shrink and ruin your paint go ahead and use it find out the hard way. The problems associated with using lacquer primer are well known and to insist it will not shrink anymore after a few minutes drying time is just simply ridiculous. Also buying $40 a gallon primer says volumes about the quality of a persons work and you can believe it or not but the cheaper 2k primers will cost less to use because that lacquer junk takes 2 to 3 times as much to do the same job!
I would add that we used lacquer primers because that's all there was to use. The 2K primer/surfacers are better in every way. I'm a hobby painter, I do a couple of cars a year, and while it's hard to keep up with new chemistry, my results are far better, last far longer than the way I did things 20 years ago.
Materials DO cost more (it cost almost 800 to paint my '62 Impala) but I know that 10 years from now the car should look as good as it does right now. It sure wouldn't if it were painted with lacquer primers and acrylic enamel, my old favorites.
Today I wouldn't use lacquer for anything.

Rugby statistician Tracey Nelson crunches the numbers from the All Blacks' 17 point defeat to England.
England got their first win at home over the All Blacks after nine years and broke New Zealand's run of 28 consecutive test victories in November/December tests.
The 17 point winning margin is England's largest ever over New Zealand. It is only the second time in history they have beaten the All Blacks by more than six points. The only other occasion was in 1936, when the All Blacks lost 13-0 at Twickenham.
The winning margin is also the All Blacks' third worst defeat of all time, headed off only by the 21 point margin against Australia in 1999 and the 17 point margin against South Africa in 1928 (which sneaks in ahead of this loss to England as the All Blacks scored no points in that 1928 loss).
It was the first time since July 1998 (against South Africa in Wellington) that the All Blacks have been held scoreless in the first half, and England join Scotland as the two sides to score the most tries (three) in a game against New Zealand in 2012.
While the All Blacks showed they have mastered the art of holding up an opposition maul (three turnovers off England), it was England who won the battle of the breakdown with three tackle turnovers and two penalties awarded for the All Blacks not releasing the ball when tackled.
England's backs made 10 clean linebreaks to the seven by the All Blacks, and in the process they beat 13 defenders while amassing their 310 running metres. Manu Tuilagi was their standout at centre with one clean linebreak that evaded three tacklers (Carter, McCaw and Aaron Smith) to set up Bradley Barrett's try, and the intercepted pass off Kieran Read for his own try.
England's tight five also put in the hard yards, gaining on average an extra four metres per carry to the All Blacks' tight five. Joe Launchbury made 24 metres with his six ball carries, and was England's top tackler with a total of 14.
Overall the All Blacks made 103 tackles and missed 17, while England made 111 and missed 18. Top tackler for the All Blacks was Kieran Read with 11 and one assist, followed by Richie McCaw and Sam Whitelock who both made nine tackles and one assist. Read also missed the most tackles of any All Black (three).
The All Blacks conceded 13 penalties to England's 11, with eight of them coming in the first half. Read was the most penalised All Black with three (all in that first half), while England No 8 Ben Morgan conceded the most for England with two.
Carter had a day he would rather forget, missing both penalty attempts in the first half for just a 50 percent goal kicking record, missing two tackles, and making the least number of running metres of any back on the field other than Aaron Smith. It was his first loss to England in his 10th test against them.
Owen Farrell made 11 tackles missing just one, and his 17 points with the boot saw him four points short of equalling Johnny Wilkinson's England record for individual points against the All Blacks. Farrell did, however, bring up 100 test points with his third three-pointer of the night.
Julian Savea's first try of the night was New Zealand's 100th against England, and his second try took him to a total of 12 for the season, achieved in just nine test matches.
Debate on this article is now closed.

It's pricey, I think he paid over $60 for a 1000+ piece puzzle but it's something he enjoys doing and plans on framing the puzzle to hang in his office. I said something a while back about making a puzzle from a picture of a frame comb covered in bees. We both think it would be an exceptionally difficult puzzle because of the lack of different colors and contrast and you'd have to go solely on the shape of the puzzle piece and the orientation of the stripes on the bees abdomens. Anyone have some pictures that would make a good puzzle? Post em up here.

Suit Week: The New Power Suit
We've got the inside intel on the newest power suit, with the designer to deconstruct the look.
The double-breasted suit is back, and no, you don't have to be a 1930s mobster or Pau Gasol to look good in one. It used to be that vertically challenged guys were dissuaded from donning the dapper cut, but designers from Burberry to Tom Ford to Zegna are playing fast and loose with that rule. With a slimmer—but not too slim—fit, the modern double-breasted suit now comes in styles appropriate for men who fall into the category between Hipster in a Skinny Suit and Rochester Big and Tall. With exaggerated lapels and an all-around rakish appeal, the new DB is the suit to put on when you want to stand out from the pack.
Expert Opinion: A Designer Breaks Down The Double-Breasted Suit
Florence, Alabama–based menswear designer Billy Reid is a dude's designer, making handsome clothes with exacting American craftsmanship. He has also garnered a handful of design awards and has collaborated with K-Swiss on a sneaker line. And he has a thing for double-breasted suits. He not only loves wearing them but also makes updated versions that take the eye-catching cut from old-school to modern cool. Here he breaks down the new double breasted.
"I've got an old photograph of [Louisiana governor and U.S. senator] Huey Long in a double-breasted suit on my inspiration board. My great-grandfather was Long's personal attorney."
Proportion Distortion
"There used to be so much extra fabric that if you wore the jacket unbuttoned it looked as though you were wearing a tent. We play with the length of the jacket, which is going to be a bit higher on a younger guy, and we raise the armholes."
Size Doesn't Matter
"It's a flattering cut for someone who is tall. But if it's cut slimmer, your height doesn't matter."
Heirloom tailored Anderson double-breasted suit (pictured), $1,595, Avery shirt, $225, thin tie, $95, and Gulch loafer, $350, all by Billy Reid.

2009 The Ballad of Gay Tony coming this fall
Grand Theft Auto IV - General News | @ 03:03 PM MDT | By Neil
Rockstar Games just announced the second downloadable episode for GTA IV will be called The Ballad of Gay Tony and will be available this fall. The add-on is priced the same as The Lost and Damned at $19.99 or 1600 Microsoft Points.
"As Luis Lopez, part-time hoodlum and full-time assistant to legendary nightclub impresario Tony Prince (aka "Gay Tony"), players will struggle with the competing loyalties of family and friends, and with the uncertainty about who is real and who is fake in a world in which everyone has a price."In addition, the company also announced that both The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony will release on a compilation disc which will not require the original game to play. Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City will cost approximately the same amount as buying the two episodes separately.
Both episodes are exclusive to Xbox 360. The company has announced no plans whatsoever to bring them to any other platform.

I don't have but 3 hives. I keep a journal (not a diary) listing date and what was done. I generally just bring enough stuff, or leave it at the site, to do what needs to be done at the time I notice it. The dated journal is nice so I can figure out what happened when last year. I make a seperate page when I am messing with making queens.
What would be easier and quicker (than using an 'ID card" for each hive), would be to place a barcode sticker (serial #) on each hive. Develop a (or incorporate into an existing) mobile app that begins each inspection with a scan of the barcode by your phone's (or tablet's) camera.
I would suggest contacting the developer with such a request.
That's the wonder of most open source/privately developed software. You can say "Hey, this would be great!" and they very well might agree with you and update the software with that feature.
I use and ICAM extreme. A pair of sunglasses with a video camera built into them. The camera is right between the eyes and takes great video and audio. I then go back to my computer and download it and save it and can refer to it whenever I need to. The video records wherever I am looking. Works well for me.
Sorry forgot to say that they also come with a set of clear lenses. Easier to see things with.
gm. I guess my recall must not be as good as yours. Next year when I look back or try to think back about what I did that worked and didn't work I can look at the video. Takes 5 minutes to hook up and down load. Some of us just aren't as smart as others. Especially us that are fairly new to this game. Like I said, before works well for me. Not trying to push it on anyone.
Luv2beekeep, it is a perfectly good use of technology.

Zone 5a, Practicing non-intervention beekeeping
Well if it works for you....... Its funny how we want to get back to nature, and then spend time screwing with technology. It just seemed to me if you were sharp enough to come up with an idea like that and make them work you would be sharp enough to remember how to work your bees!
I'm building an iPhone/iPad app that can do the following:
1) Take an updated picture of your hive and also allow you to tag pictures to a hive inspection (you will need to take the device to the yard to take pictures).
2) Type notes on the progress of the hive (you can do this at your home...this is not meant to be done in the yard, but you can do it in the yard if you want).
3) Complete bulk tasks to multiple hives.
4) Update the hive status - number of frames of brood, pollen, honey etc. (this is meant to show the current status of your hive).
Moving hives is also on my list and hopefully should be done in about a month.
The data is stored in the cloud and you don't have to worry about losing any of it. Please send me a private message with your email if you want to be a beta tester (beta testers try out the app and give me feedback).
I'll give my 2 cents on this.
As some of you I use a digital micro-recorder where I record the aspects that stand out just after viewing each hive.
Later at home I put on computer information of each hive.
But this is only half way . When return to that apiary I take a sheet of paper with very brief notes about each hive. This feedforward is very useful because it allows me to better interpret what I see in each hive.
Yesterday and today I inspected an apiary with more than 90 hives. I carried information of each hive with the number of frames that bees cover 3 weeks prior. All colonies were over about 1 to 2 Q bees. I just saw on the ground that those hives had grown relatively to what they were three weeks before. To be rigorous, all grew least one : the hive No. 332. 3 weeks ago bees covering 8 frames and yesterday covered only 6. In the presence of an abnormal situation I' decided analyse in more watch out . Got some frames and quickly came across the reason of that abnormality : the hive despite being treated had a high load mites.
In conclusion notes are optimal, we must take them , if not always, almost always, register them in the format that we prefere ... and go again with us to the apiary in the format that most suits us ( I opt by a simple sheet of paper handwritten with very summary notes; an A4 sheet gives to record what I want for about 50 hives ).
Also the best program out there is http://beecloud.co/en/ they listen to you when you need a new feature etc. Check them out.
I also keep two bricks on top of each hive. They keep the lid from blowing off but I also use them to remind me about queen status. Both laying down means she is there and laying. One upright tells me I need to look for eggs, like if I requeened or have a virgin. Two upright means queenless.
I also keep a spreadsheet to track if I feed, when and how much, if and when they swarmed etc. I also create records for splits with a date to go look for eggs so I don't get ahead of myself and go in too early, but can also know when it's been too long so I can intervene.
Not for nothing you could write a book on a 5 gallon pail.
Brian Cardinal
Zone 5a, Practicing non-intervention beekeeping
For me, note taking must be easy to do and easy to retrieve the info, otherwise my laziness prevents me from doing it. I've thought of using some sort of electronic recording, but then the info is hidden away on storage media somewhere and it is not easily accessible when I am in the apiary. Transcribing takes an extra step and thus won't get done. Wading through a bunch of video to recall what was done 8 weeks ago would take too long.
I would also distinguish between a system which creates a record to enhance the learning process, vs a system which is just leaving me a future note so I know what the next step is in whatever operation I am doing to a hive. Right now, I am doing the former, but if I had more hives or had more experience, I would be doing the latter.
After some trial and error, I now tape a sheet of water proof paper (Rite In The Rain) on the top of each lid and write on it with pencil. Usually just one line per inspection or manipulation. The paper and pencil are weather proof and sit in the open on top of the hive for most of year with no ill effects. Literally an extra 10 seconds per hive at each inspection/manipulation and I have a complete and easily accessed record. Super easy, and the info is right there in front of my face whenever I approach the hive.
I find looking over the notes for the previous few months to be very helpful because it allows me to spot trends I wouldn't otherwise notice. This is especially helpful for evaluating queens. When the page is full I replace it and put the full page in a notebook in case I want to look at it in the future.

(6th year, 15 hives, Zone 5b, 5500')
shinbone you use information media a little different from mine , but the strategy is completely identical. Have specific information that allows us to understand and spot the hive trends is a critical piece for quick and appropriate intervention.

Police have identified the body located in McRobbie Road as twenty-one year old Shalvin Prasad of Dannemora.
Shalvin is described by his family as "full of life" with family and friends being the centre of his world. "He loves to play soccer and enjoyed his job. He is probably the most innocent and naive 21-year-old you could meet".
Shalvin was reported missing to Police by his family early in the morning of 31 January 2013. His disappearance was out of character and there are no known reasons why Shalvin would go missing or take his own life.
Detective Inspector Dave Lynch of Counties-Manukau police says that police are now treating Shalvin's death as a Homicide; "based upon what we now know about Shalvin coupled with the fact his vehicle and some personal possessions are still missing it is believed that another person or persons are involved in his disappearance and death".
A key focus for the investigation team is locating the vehicle that Shelvin was last seen in when he left home on Wednesday night.
The vehicle is described as a 1994 Toyota RAV4 in good condition with the registration number ZG1674. It is mostly blue but has a faded black (giving the appearance of grey) colour around the base.
Police are appealing to members of the public for any sightings of this vehicle from 8.30pm on Wednesday night 30 January 2013. They are also seeking any members of the automobile industry who have bought such a vehicle or were asked to dispose of such a vehicle within this timeframe.
Police would also like to hear from anyone who saw or had contact with Shelvin in the week leading up to his disappearance.
Investigations have established that two vehicles left McRobbie Road at high speed on Thursday morning at approximately 6.30am just prior to the arrival of the first police vehicle. Both vehicles carried on straight through the intersection into Kingseat Road travelling in the Pukekohe direction. One vehicle was described as Blue/Silver in colour and the other was white.
Police are urging the drivers of these vehicles to come forward to be eliminated from the investigation. "This is a remote location and both drivers will be well aware that their vehicles will be of interest to the investigation. The longer they wait to come forward will increase the level of interest Police have in them and we urge them to contact us as soon as possible".
Any information can be given to Police on 09 295 0311 or to Crime-stoppers on 0800 555 111

I am planning on adding 5 hives to my apiary next year and am working out what needs to be purchased. I have read many of Dee's articles on small cell beekeeping, and would like to start all of the hives on small cell from dadant. Buckeye Bee in Ohio says they have package bees that were raised on small cell. My question is really this: should I purchase only deep supers, and buy small cell for all of them? Does anyone else do this? One obvious advantage i can think of is that you will have lots of small cell comb to raise other colonies on, and all of your frames would be interchangable. Is it necessary to use small cell in the honey supers? I only have 1 hive so far, so I would like to start now using the organic - drug free beekeeping methods. If i should only use two deeps, and buy medium or shallow supers, should I still use deeps so I can split my 5 hives with 4 deeps to 10 hives with 2 deeps the second year - and just purchase honey supers the second year? I will try to regress my 1 hive, just for the learning experience. It is a DE hive from David Eyre at www.beeworks.com. I was also thinking about using his Langstroth modification kits for my 5 hives.
Thanks from a newbee,
Chris Williams

It might be a stretch making a link between the Pope and the species of boxing promoter but events in the past week involving Rome and the Ring have an eerily familiar feel about them.
Both grabbed out-of-the-blue headlines which shocked many people and both caused doubt and disappointment with a day of reckoning looming in the future.
It's rare that matters of "housekeeping" are subjected to the disinfectant of sunlight at the Vatican. Some years ago I was afforded the unique opportunity of seeing the operations of the Holy See at close quarters when Pope John Paul II visited New Zealand on a three-city tour in 1986.
I was part of a company called Visitation Holdings Ltd set up in NZ as a partner with Mark McCormack's commercial powerhouse IMG, (International Management Group) to handle all commercial aspects of the visit. This was a massive operation controlled by a former top cop, Pat Gaines, with the organisational skills of Auckland sports management guru Paul Gleeson.
The planning was meticulous and easily the most challenging and demanding of any such project seen in New Zealand to that time.
Such was the tight hold on organisational integrity and confidentiality that at one stage I was given a dressing down for inadvertently revealing, in answer to media questions, where the Pope's robes would be laundered.
Thousands of items of papal-visit-related memorabilia were produced for sale. While the traditional tea towels were in abundance, they were not great sellers and to this day Gleeson has failed to track down the Auckland suburban garage in which they are undoubtedly still stored.
Gleeson recalls jokingly approaching the then New Zealand head of American Express with a suggestion that Amex launch a new credit card featuring the Pope and the tagline: "Don't leave Rome without it."
For companies like IMG and their clients ( the Vatican rated high in the pecking order) the parallels of organisation and maximising revenue returns are very similar. With that in mind, who can blame Sonny Bill Williams' manager Khoder Nasser for wanting to maximise his clients' returns?
Nasser is a creative and single-minded individual whose work reaps huge benefits for his sportsmen. I can live with that - and I was one of the many disgusted at the antics and outcome of last week's debacle between Sonny Bill Williams and Francois Botha and the whole disrespect the participants showed to their sport.
Next time, instead of paying my $39.95 to Sky, I will donate it to an organisation that can get the right people to run things and not have to spend the following week in the confessional.

No summer starts without a carefully culled and curated playlist of seasonal jams. It's a staple of summer since time immemorial. It's a must-have. No barbeque is complete without a little Bruce; no road trip is real until Steppenwolf has taken center stage. Music is what moves us; selecting the tunes to take us through those hot summer days and everlasting balmy nights is an art form well practiced but never perfected. Like pairing a fine wine with an aged cheese, some music simply works well together while some can cause a catastrophic crash and bring a party to a grinding halt. Knowing which tracks work with which is half the battle; setting the tone of the party or trip with tunes is the other.
And with that we bring you the Sounds of Summer, Playboy.com's guide to the ultimate summer playlist. This selection is by no means all-encompassing, but it is a good starting point, a base or foundation if you will, to build around.

What games are you playing?
Final Fantasy VII (toward the end of the 1st disc)
Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker HD
Killzone Trilogy
These are all games that I've had for a while, and I just haven't played them because I've had other games to play. Still can't believe I am just now playing Final Fantasy VII for the first time. I got it at Christmas time. I plan on getting The Last of Us (already preordered), Ratchet: Deadlocked HD, BioShock 2, Devil May Cry 4, and DmC: Devil May Cry by the end of the Summer.
Re: What games are you playing?
Re: What games are you playing?[ Edited ]
Playing Bioshock right now (the first one). I think I'm a little over halfway through the game. After I finish Bioshock, I'll play Infinite.
Re: What games are you playing?
I am not truly playing any games but after school is done I plan on playing
Sly Cooper 4
Assassin's Creed 3
God of War: Ascension
Assassin's Creed Liberation
Remember Me
Dust 514
Maybe Transformers Fall of Cybertron
And a couple other PsVita games
(Lol what a list!)
Re: What games are you playing?
Might go for Jak and Sly collections afterwards and UC3, have them but haven't played the Jak games on ps3, only ps2.
Re: What games are you playing?
Re: What games are you playing?
The game I mostly play right now is Silent Hill 2, on the PC. On the PS3 I'm playing the campaign for Bioshock Infinite again, and sometimes I pop in DMC 3 HD to get some S ranks with Vergil.
Oh, and I play All-Stars every day on the Vita.
But this year's wishlist is big! I need to do some research for my All-Stars manga series, so I need to play...
Heavenly Sword
Ratchet & Clank HD collection
Jak & Daxter HD collection
Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time
InFAMOUS collection
Metal Gear Solid 4
Metal Gear Rising
Persona 4 Golden
Killzone Trilogy
Dead Space
Twiste Metal (2012)
Tomb Raider (2013)
MAYBE Kingdom Hearts HD Remix
MAYBE The Last of Us
...Yep. I'm going to need A LOT of money .-.
= = Every day is Kill la Kill day!! = =
Re: What games are you playing?
Currently, I am playing U3's MP, PSASBR, Injustice, and dats about eet. I might get around to actually finishing the following one day: MGR, Jak 1 (DIS **bleep** IS HARD) in the collection (Haven't started 2 or 3), The KZ trilogy (Playing KZ1 on hardest difficulty on my first playthrough is not a good idea), and....moar. I also need to start playing a ton of my other games more often...But I do know I want: Batman Arkham games, KH 1.5, TLOU, and moar. I have an extensive list.

Merry Mary Quite Contrary is at it again!
Original post made by Susan West, another community, on May 5, 2008
Dear neighbors,
Do you want Stone Valley Road and Danville Blvd to be four lane parkways in the Diablo Vista (Alamo) Region. Supervisor Piepho does!
Tell her NO, DAMN NO! She is holding an invitation-only meeting at Hap Magee Park, 4PM, Monday, May 12th and she deserves to hear from counsel for her actions!

Dear neighbors,
May I suggest that Ms. Piepho be given the opportunity to present her considerations of Alamo Traffic issues. I could not find any intention on the part of Ms. Piepho or Contra Costa Public Works to create projects on our main roads without consideration of public comment. The key, very importantly, is to make the political costs too great for county and regional transportation interests to continue to route commuter traffic on Alamo roads.
If that does not work, certainly a community with the financial resources of Alamo can use effective counsel to demand compliance with our will. No need to doubt that outcome.
Alamo is a destination and not a commuter corridor. Remove Danville Blvd and Stone Valley Road in our business district and the issue is settled.
It is ever so easy,
Hal/CDSI Research

For your information:
Community Meeting 5/12/08
A message from Ms. Gina Ferretti, District 3. firstname.lastname@example.com,
You are invited to attend a community meeting to provide comments on the Tri Valley Transportation Committee - Action Plan. This plan contains a project that could make changes to the Danville Boulevard and Stone Valley Road intersection. The project was originally listed on the Alamo Area of Benefit Fund project list several years ago. A number of community members have contacted my office with concerns about the project and requested it be removed from the plan.
Date: Monday May 12, 2008

If you do not live in Discovery Bay on the water, you are a scum, in the mind of Mary N. Piepho.
Voters beware, do not be fooled again, DO NOT RE-ELECT PIEPHO.
Let's get this (words deleted by Danville Weekly staff) out of office before she does more damage.

Yup folks, this is where your tax dollars have gone, so "Mrs. Piepho" and her husband can have the delta all to themselves. I've listened to her husband on the Delta Forums website for years now, and sheesh. What a joke.
How about that? Stepping on the toes of good families for her personal agenda. Some County residents, and some not, Some that came to this County to spend their money at small business's, and now wont.
Don't you think CCC can spend your tax dollars helping people, instead of hurting them?
Please DO NOT re-elect Piepho.

Dear neighbbors,
Neighbors throughout District 3 are sharing their interests a new supervisor BUT that does not remove the issue addressed in this forum. Donna Gerber, Millie Greenberg and the current supervisor have all supported usage of Danville Blvd and Stone Valley Road as major traffic routing in our region. Meetings conducted by District 3 supervisors and CCC Public Works in our region always protected the right to use our roads as major regional thoroughfares.
That is what must STOP!
Alamo, as our regional business district, should be a destination in the same manner as our neighborhoods are destinations for our friends and commercial relationships. As regional neighbors, it should be our interests to remove any opportunity for our roads and lanes to be used as thoroughfares for foreign commuters.
The only practical method to stop such thoroughfares is to remove Danville Blvd and Stone Valley Road in the Alamo business district and create a MALL with appropriate access lanes within the district.
That is the message for May 11, 4PM, The Cottage at Hap Magee Park and May 15 at the AIA meeting.
JOIN us,

Public Works to present the next expansion of Danville Blvd
Around Town, posted by Susan West, a resident of another community, on May 1, 2008 at 4:15 pm
Dear neighbors:
(From AIA notice, www.alamoca.org)
May 15, 2008, 7:00 PM, at the regular meeting of AIA, attend a presentation by the Contra Costa County Public Works Department.
(Susan's comments)
The goal of Contra Costa County Public Works is to expand Danville Blvd to invite greater volumes of foreign commute traffic onto our roads and lanes. Expansions to date are failures in the business district and have increased traffic in Alamo.
Inform Chris Lau, CCC-PW Transportation, firstname.lastname@example.com of your preferences.

Dear Susan West,
Answer me this: How do you hold an "Invitation Only" meeting where everyone is invited?
(You must have whupped up a new definition of "Invitation Only" somehow.)
And of course I know the answer to the above question: You slant, distort and ignore reality.
I suggest you read what you have written...

You should maybe consider watching the debate between Houston and Piepho where Guy Houston's idea's include running Bart from WC to Dublin, right through ALAMO!
Web Link
He cares about as much about Alamo and Danville as he does for the a seat at the board of supervisors. He wants to use you to help him hold a seat until he can advance his career.
"Delta Jim" seems to have some personal issues and a lot of anger. Allegations with no real world examples, typical for those that attack piepho. He should take his complaints back to his delta forum, whatever that is.

It's my belief that there's a little hanky panky going on behind the scenes of the CCC BOS, to which, I think each and every one of them should be removed from office and replaced with people that are for the people, not against.
If you like your tax dollars going to certain few individuals personal agendas, then good for you, but I choose my tax dollars to be spent in ways that help the citizens of CCC, not dictate to them.
Thank You Very Much.....!

Dear Neighbors,
So many comments to address, but let's clarify:
Alamo Ron, Susan West did not schedule or has any management of the AIA and its presentation of CCC-Public Works. What is reality as "invitation only" is the District 3 meeting May 11 that cannot be restricted from public attendance.
The proposal of BART to Dublin from Walnut Creek is nothing new and the proposal places the elevated rail system along the 680 corridor. Market research has noted that there is a lack of ridership to warrant the line and a lack of jobs along the line.
The issue of CCC-BOS making decisions in opposition to Contra Costans is a repeated matter of record. In focused research, few Contra Costans believe they have been served by the current CCC-BOS.
The issue in this forum is expansion of Danville Blvd and Stone Valley Road to be greater thoroughfares for foreign commute traffic in our region. It is time that we as regional neighbors simply said "NO!"

Dear Hal,
Let's see...
I understand that this is really hard to follow, but here goes. (concentrate on this now).
Susan West started this thread by saying. "She [Mary Piepho] is holding an invitation-only meeting at Hap Magee Park, 4PM, Monday, May 12th..."
I responded by asking Susan "How do you hold an "Invitation Only" meeting where everyone is invited?" The point being that her assertion of an "invitation only" meeting is flat out wrong. Everyone is, and was, invited as Gina Ferretti, Mary's field rep, made abundantly clear.
Now you suggest that Susan had nothing to do with the scheduling. Well, of course she didn't! That's not the point. She made a flat statement that was wrong (think L-word here). Your comments on this point are not quite responsive to the issue.

Anyone thinking Guy Houston is out to help Alamo?
Because, that would really take the cake! Guy is out of a job, so your tax dollars would most likely go to his favorite special interest (himself).
Do yourself a favor and do your homework.

Dear neighbors,
Susan is traveling and will not be able to address questions concerning the meetings on Monday, May 11 and Thursday, May 15.
MAY 11 meeting: To clarify, the invitation posted in this forum to the May 11 District 3 meeting was sent to Alamo Community Council (ACC) participants only and forwarded to neighbors by those receiving the private invitation. ACC participants in the Alamo business district are concerned that expansion of roads and intersections in the district will further damage ease of access to shopping and services. In the forwarding, our provider noted, "Commute traffic does not shop and keeps our shoppers away during morning and evening hours. That is a major negative to locating new businesses in the growing number of empty spaces."
The District 3 invitation was made public in this forum because selected individuals should not voice their positions for all neighbors. ACC participants are county advisory committees including the AIA, serving at the will of the current supervisor(s), and do not represent the perspective of the majority of neighbors in our region.
May 15 meeting: AIA has publicly announced the CCC Public Works presentation of expansion plans for the Alamo business district. The AIA has provided a two page spread on the proposed expansion in Alamo Today this month and announced opposition to the expansion.
Residents in the Iron Horse corridor from Walnut Creek to Danville are encouraged to attend the AIA meeting and voice their opposition to using Danville Blvd and Stone Valley Road as commute corridors and trapping residents in their neighborhoods with the traffic volume.
A final note: Iron Horse neighbors, like neighbors throughout District 3, have called for supervisor candidates to address community, infrastructure (traffic), economic development, and usages of our environments. The current supervisors have been abusive in all categories and do not have the support of the majority of regional neighbors. Thus, Guy was asked to publish his positions so voters can weigh his approach to serving our region and District 3.
Thank you for your contributions to this forum,
Kathy Bell

I started taking UltraClear PLUS® Medical Food upon the reccomendation of my doctor. My energy has improved as has my overall health. UltraClear PLUS® is a very high quality product. I CANNOT imagine starting my day without it!!!

Like Popeyes Spinach!
Ive spent the last few years feeling exhausted... even after sitting at my desk all day. I would try and get more sleep to no avail. Walking 18 holes on the golf course was like running a marathon. Then I tried UltraClear PLUS® Medical Food. WHAT A DIFFERENCE. Forget coffee (no more 3 cups a day). This give me a sustained level of energy and makes a great breakfast. Ive been taking UltraClear PLUS® Medical Food for almost 2 years now and feel like a kid again. Best of all - NO CRASH!
Tastes good. Gives me sustained energy.
Is a lil expensive but still cheaper than my $10-a-day coffee habit!

Life Saver!
I deal with Hemochromatosis. UltraClear PLUS Medical Food recommended by my chiropractor keeps my liver clean my saturation level is great and helps me to clean the iron from my system due to this disease. My oncologist told me there was nothing to do to rid the iron from my system but doing bloodletting. Well I proved him wrong. UltraClear PLUS Medical Food is a life saver! I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to detox their system especially their liver.

After undergoing health problems which my doctor was unable to diagnose or help me with, I finally went to a nutritionist. She analyzed my symptoms and complaints and recommended Metagenics UltraClear PLUS. This product helped clear up my symptoms, almost completely.
It help my with an existing medical problem. I was very pleased with the results.

I mix frozen berries into it and almond milk (the 1st week only) and to me the flavor of this is addictive! i also feel energetic while on it... though you will feel deprived when week 2 kicks in.

I will always use Ultra Clear Plus
UltraClear Plus by Metagenics was recommended to me by my naturopath over 10 years ago when I had autoimmune problems plus a leaky gut. It certainly improved my energy and overall health.
It mixes easily; I use it in a smoothie every morning. When I feel hungry, I will substitute Ultra clear instead of junk food.
