trance, here is oliver's latest paper on colony losses in general including a review on what is know about neonics as it relates to bees:
i find oliver's objectivity refreshing. some have questioned his objectivity as being suspect since he receives research dollars from big companies. here's how he responds to that (quoted with permission):
"I've personally wrestled with this aspect of publicity of proprietary data.
In the case of Bayer Cropscience, Bayer set up a dedicated website for the members of the original Bayer-Beekeeper Dialog Group set up by Jerry Bromenshenk and David Fischer of Bayer. The only limitation placed upon us what that we couldn't copy and forward the actual data to their competitors, who could have then used that data to register competing products. I commend Bayer on their openness. I have yet to find Bayer to withhold any information that I have ever requested, even when such information may appear to involve potential negative aspects of their products.
I recently asked the manufacturer of Dimilin insecticide to review their proprietary data, and was granted a conference call a few days ago with their lead scientists in Europe. The plan is for me to sign an NDA and be given access to that data, so that I can summarize the results for the benefit of the beekeeping community (I will work in conjunction with Drs Eric Mussen and Reed Johnson).
Trickier is when I get paid to run a field trial for a company with a product to sell to beekeepers. My agreement with Beeologics was that I would be free to publish the results of the trials, good, bad, or indifferent--which I have or are in the process of. Luckily for them, the product was clearly effective!
When Beeologics was acquired by Monsanto, I only agreed to continue if they agreed in writing to give me access to the data from the control group--again potentially to the great benefit of the bee scientific community.
I've also run trials for products in development. In this case, I feel that the data can remain proprietary, since the product is not on the market. Trust me, if it later came to market and I knew something negative about it, I would then run my own independent trial, funded by donations to my website, to bring that fact to the beekeeping community's attention!
The situation is different for products on the market. I do not want to be put into the position of finding that a product is mere snake oil (or harmful to colonies) and not be able to say so! I am currently in negotiation with a company to run an expensive year-long trial of their product, which is already on the market. We are currently working out whether they will accept my condition of freedom to publish the results should they be negative.
The beauty of my position is that I don't care about the money, since I make more from the hives if I don't engage them in trials. Running a proper field trial is a real pain, and finding time for data collection this week when my other hives cry for attention has forced us to work long hours six or seven days a week--who looks forward to weighing and grading
150 hives in a trial when the rest of your colonies are about to swarm!
So no manufacturer has any leverage over me, since I have no financial interest. The only reason that I run field trials is for the benefit of beekeepers who trust in my to give them accurate information. I take that trust very seriously."
he has earned my trust, and i value the contribution he has made to beekeeping.

text: according to this syear's playoffs is not the requirement we think for winning (not my belief) but look at the scores, the Ravens against the Broncos and the 49'ers against the Packers. The league is offense oriented now and the defenses are lagging behind. For most fans that is opposite of ehat we enjoy and want football to be, but the owners want excitiement to sell tickets

Excerpt: "The New York Giants offseason had arrived five weeks too early according to all reports from East Rutherford. No kidding. Watching game tape and DVDs of previous games has replaced what the Big Blue Faithful are used to what is demanded, really.
In doing any of the above especially that very last home game one cannot help but notice some of the positives left to reflect upon as free agency and the 2013 NFL Draft talk begins:
First-round draft pick, running back David Wilson, can be a large part of theNew York Giants run game if the offensive line is a strength and breakout fullback Henry Hynoski continues to build upon his expanded role.
As wide receiver Rueben Randle learns the complicated offensive system, he gains attention as a legitimate threat in the receiving game. He has the size and great talent around him to learn from; he needs to continue to absorb all knowledge and keep up with the positive part of his attitude.
Stepping away from much media banter, cornerback Prince Amukamara should be able to grow into his defensive back role with more confidence. He needs to remain healthy and keep the short-term memory thing in check. Depending on the plan for fellow cornerback Corey Webster, more passes could come his way; he needs to be ready for that.
Perhaps the biggest surprise this season for the defense came in the form of a free agent from Michigan. Safety Stevie Brown has come on as a replacement for fallen safety Kenny Phillips and he never looked back. Imagine what another year of gaining backfield awareness from Antrel Rolle could do for this 4th year pseudo-journeyman/player? Eight interceptions with 307 return yards is just the beginning.
Add to that defensive backfield home state favorite, safety Will Hill. This kid is versatile. Hes played wide receiver, quarterback, running back, and safety in the past, but played mostly nickel while in blue. Hes raw, but in a limited role, he showed flashed that cannot be ignored (on Special Teams as well). Theres a reason the Giants took a chance on him and like with Brown, another year in may prove to be just what Hill needs to be more of a gamer." Read more...

I have an M72 parts kit with a virgin barrel, the correct one, heavy with cooling fins. Since I have no receiver as of yet, I wondered how difficult it would be to convert it from 7.62x39 to 7.62x51? The bore is the same if I'm not mistaken, and 12mm could be made up with gentle movement. The barrel could handle the heavier pressure of the .308 round.
Please advise on this. I have read several other chamber change threads and have read that the .308 bolt has larger locking lugs. So would the lower rails have to be mounted lower? Having not seen a Kalashnikov chambered for this round I am unfamiliar.


text: How good is this Dallas team? They have a shot at going 10-6, or 8-8 or 9-7. Or if the Mayans were really tuned in guys, 8-6 and it doesn't matter. 10-6 gets them into the play-offs, and then that is a new day. The other two are just more of the same we've seen over the last few years. Now some will argue that making the play-offs, anything can happen. And that is true. But then why does Vegas give odds on projected results. Obviously to get action. But there is some truth to what they think will happen. 10-6 may be enough. But probably not heading into a tournament against teams that have played well all season long while Dallas runs out back-ups that weren't on the team when this trek started. The odds are so weighted against a miracle ending, Vegas has them at 80-1 to win it all. But what truly is enough for you? Do you want to win the Super Bowl? Now I have been branded, lectured, and scolded about being negative. People don't understand looking at the team, making a dispassionate assessment and then formulating an opinion. I love this team as much as you do. Do you want a Super Bowl? That is the only question that matters. Because 13-3 and losing at any level of the play-offs is not enough. This game is about winning, and winning it all. When was the last time you heard anyone bragging about the NFC Championship games their team has played in? I can tell you Dallas has lost eight NFC Championship games. They have won eight NFC Championship games. Lost three Super Bowls. Won five Super Bowls. So what is the real goal here? For me it is to win Championships. All the happy horse manure about being satisfied if they won a play-off game, or even lost in an NFC Championship game would go right away after you lost in the play-offs. The only thing you take with a play-off loss is you may be good enough to get back there the next year. But Dallas has an aging Super Star and the likelihood of getting back is tough. This post isn't some rambling bit of crapola. Think on this. What would it take to win it all? Forget the Giants and their march to the prize. What would it take for Dallas to be in position to win it all next year? Center Right Tackle Back-up Running Back Wide Receiver Nose Tackle Defensive End Outside Linebacker Safety Back-up Corner back Health Would you agree with that assessment? If so, what truly would it take to get those pieces? Can the team get them? Draft or FA? Both? So all the arguing, debating, and seeing who is right and who is wrong is pushing paper around the desk. The goal is to win it all. Romo is the center piece for this team to do so. Give him the right pieces and this guy can win. Give him the right pieces and health over two seasons and he can go back to back. What will it take to get into position? Now some of you have never seen this team truly in the hunt. Most have. Telling me just winning a play-off game would be satisfying is baloney. For those of you who were around in 1994, how did that losing to the 49ers taste? For those of you around in 1981, how did that losing because of The Catch taste? It has been argued that just getting into the play-offs would be enough. I suggest if you feel that way, you are a sadder sack than me who assesses the team and makes a guess at how they will turn out. Because there is no goal of almost. So, what will it take to get the right players in position to win it all? Because even as skeptical as I sometimes seem, I do think this team is close... ...with those right pieces. So what is the answer to the $64 dollar question? What will it take to hoist the Lombardi in 2013?

I run 10 to 15 comb honey supers (med. and shallow supers) for cut comb and chunk honey sales at our local farmers market. The last couple of years i have drone cells on the bottom half of some of the comb honey frames? These frames are above the queen excluder and it's always drone brood no worker cells, an old time beekeeper (older than me) told me that in strong hives with several supers on, that you can have some laying worker activity in the upper supers? Makes sense to me, but was wondering if there could be something else going on here and how to prevent it?
PS. i have at times had this problem in honey supers above the excluder also?

Story highlights
- A Russian photographer scaled Egypt's Great Pyramid on a recent visit
- Climbing the Pyramids has been forbidden for decades
- The resulting photos provide a rarely seen perspective
Do not try this on your next vacation.
Egyptian authorities cracked down on climbing the Pyramids at Giza in the 1980s, but that didn't stop adventurer Vitaliy Raskalov and his friends from dodging local guards this year to take a few very hard-to-get shots from atop the Great Pyramid.
The Russian photographer said his motivation was simple: "We saw the old photographs of the Pyramids and decided to climb on it."
He also said he wasn't aware of the risk and illegality, but reports that Raskalov's previous daredevil activities (skywalking on the Russky Island Bridge) landed him in custody suggest otherwise.
But there's no denying that the photos from his latest illicit romp are spectacular.

Oppenheimer Likes Tata Motors, Shares Fall
Tata Motor's (TTM) is having good week, but a tough year. Shares of the Indian auto maker have jumped 7% this week, but are still sitting down 12% in 2013.
Oppenheimer's Manish Hemrajani thinks this is a good time to buy and today, he started Tata with an outperform rating. He writes:
We believe robust growth of the JLR business (70% of FY13E revenues) will be the key trigger through continuous unveiling of new products (40 new models/variants over the next five years) and through well-diversified geographical reach in key growth markets, especially China. In addition, strong performance and sustained leadership in the Indian domestic commercial vehicle segment, despite near-term pressures from the passenger vehicle segment, are expected to drive the Indian domestic business.
He set his price target at $31, 23% higher than its current price of $25.27.
Tata's been a tough one for me and my colleague Reshma Kapadia. On Feb. 2, she made a similar argument in Barron's:
Tata Motors may still be best known as the Indian auto maker behind the world's cheapest car, the Nano, but its fortunes now are being driven by its acquisition of British luxury brands Jaguar and Land Rover—and there's a long road ahead...
Within the next 18 months, Tata, which trades at a discount to global luxury auto makers, could narrow its gap with the likes of BMW and Daimler, offering 25% upside in the stock.
I backed her up soon after and since then the stock has dropped8.9%. Still, the luxury brands are selling well in the developed world and China. Now if only it's Indian business would pick up.
Shares of Tata Motors have dropped 0.8% to $25.19 today.

Blog | Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territory
Israel's 'anti-boycott' law hurts the country's journalists
Two weeks ago, late on a Monday evening, the Israeli parliament passed a controversial law aimed at protecting the country from calls to boycott Israel because of its policies about Palestinians. The law, dubbed the "anti-boycott" law, makes supporting these campaigns a civil offense in the state of Israel. Days after the bill passed, public opinion polls revealed that a majority of Israelis (roughly 52 percent) support the aggressive measure.

Fall Convocation 2006
UTSA to celebrate start of new academic year
By Patricia Graham
Executive Director, Special Events Center
(Aug. 6, 2007)--UTSA continues a tradition initiated in 2002 -- the annual Fall Convocation for faculty, students and staff -- to celebrate the beginning of the new academic year. With the theme, "The Journey Begins," the special event is from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., Monday, Aug. 20 in the Campus Recreation Center gym on the 1604 Campus. The speaker will be Sen. Judith Zaffirini.

As part of Roadrunner Days, a week of special events to welcome our new students, faculty and staff also are invited to be part of the Fall Convocation. An academic convocation sets the tone for a successful academic year for the entire UTSA community, and faculty-staff participation is important.
The convocation is an opportunity for the university community to acquaint new students with academic traditions, hear from an inspiring speaker, celebrate our accomplishments, look to the future and articulate our pride in our institution and the UTSA family.
A faculty and staff breakfast for those participating in the academic processional will be from 8:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. Aug. 20 on the second floor of the Campus Recreation Center. To reserve a seat for the breakfast, e-mail Marlon Anderson, call (210) 458-6110 or fax a breakfast RSVP to (210) 458-4772. (Download the breakfast RSVP.)
Because of construction this summer, this area may be unfamiliar to you. For easiest access, enter from parking lot 5 on the south side and follow the signs. Watch for more details of this event in UTSA Today.
The processional formation begins at 9:30 a.m. on the Rec Center second floor. Participants are encouraged to wear academic regalia and march in the academic procession. If you have your own academic regalia, please wear it. The deadline to rent regalia at the UTSA Bookstore is Wednesday, Aug. 8. Faculty and staff members also can march in the processional wearing UTSA's orange and blue colors, if they choose not to wear regalia.

What do you think? Genius or reason number 876 of 877^20 that General Motors is junk bond material?
Well, 390 hp, 6-spd, Camaro Z28 like performance, serious head turner, etc., etc., etc.Its pricey, but it'll turn more heads then a Corvette.
Take a Ride on the Wild Side
yea especially since there aren't many. Plus Hard top convetables are expensive period.
Yeah, but it turns heads for the wrong reasons.....because it looks like crap.
yeah yeah! I bet if it had a big Ram Head on it you'd love it!
Take a Ride on the Wild Side
Quote: -Wishbone front suspension independent with stabilizer bar and coil springs , beam rear suspension rigid with stabilizer bar and coil springs
Quote: Because of the extra mechanism required for the top's operation, the retractable was the heaviest of the 59 Fords with a shipping weight a bit over two tons. Due to the extra weight, the cars could be ordered only with V-8 engines: anything from a 292/200 hp to a "Thunderbird" 352 rated at 300 bhp.
Chevy, I think the SSR is great looking, just a bit pricy for many peoples budgets. I think it would be great if they attempted to mass market it, to make it more affordable to build. In other words more like a Chevy Camaro than a Dodge Viper if you get my drift. I would also offer a model that doesn't have the removable hardtop which would help the affordablity and the weight. I think it started with 300 HP, but if it has 390 HP now it should be a real sweet heart. I really like the way it looks. Thinking about it, I suppose they could offer a version of the new HHR with a truck bed and a unique grill to cover the lower end of this market.
Yeah, I understand fully what you are saying. And I love the way the truck looks, but it is just too pricey, lol.As for performance, some magazine tested it and got 13.80 in the 1/4, so that's pretty good considering it weighs more then a 1/2-ton single cab, 2WD truck, and "only" has 390 hp, lol.
Take a Ride on the Wild Side
Since it is a body on frame design, I wonder if they could shave the frame a bit considering that very few of these will be used as trucks. This really is a great vehicle, but 4000 lbs. Ouch! It seems like many new cars and trucks are growing in weight along with Americans waistlines.
SSR -Weights: gross vehicle weight rating (lbs) 6050, curb weight (lbs) 4760, It's right at 5,000 lbs with a driver and fuel. That is very heavy for a 2 seater of that size, no matter how much horsepower it has. Weight times speed equals inertia which hurts handling when weight equals 2 and 1/2 tons. I've owned 3/4 ton trucks that have weighed one hell of a lot less empty.I do like the way it looks, though........
Beav, Roger that. Since this vehicle is probably not really used as a pickup, I wonder if they could build either a much lighter frame, or redesign it on a unibody platform. Unfortunately that would probably involve a complete redesign. I expect that deleting the bed cover and replacing the removable hardtop with a regular hardtop could benefit both weight and cost a bit.
They probably could do something with the frame, but I dont know. I think they could loose more weight by using fiberglass body panels. Seems like its all steel right now.
Take a Ride on the Wild Side
I followed the SSR from conception and wondered early on about the wisdom of using a SUV chassis for a base. Maybe a removable hardtop would cheapen the price and lighten the load. I wonder if they should have used the Monaro/GTO chassis when they designed this vehicle, it would probably be 1,000lbs lighter if they had. Good idea, questionable execution..........imo
That's a good idea since the Monaro already comes in truck form.

Do honey bees work crepe myrtle? I am new to this and have several trees in bloom. I see bumble bees and other bees working it but not my honey bees. If they do work it is it a good nectar/ pollen resource. They are very easy to grow around here.
Do honey bees work crepe myrtle? I am new to this and have several trees in bloom. I see bumble bees and other bees working it but not my honey bees. If they do work it is it a good nectar/ pollen resource. They are very easy to grow around here.
I've not seen honeybees on my crepe myrtle here.
They are in full bloom here and no bees working them.
Here where I live there are a LOT of crepe myrtles in town. The bees are all over them and suburban beekeepers report surplus during July. Supposed to be water white.
Interesting that they go after it in CA, but not FL. I am in Orlando, and Crepe Myrtle is everywhere. I've never seen a honey bee on them and very rarely have I seen anything else either.
I have however seen honey bees on them in Williamsburg, VA.
When the White ones were in bloom ( Central AL) they were covered with bees. When the red ones bloomed I didn't see any bees on them.
I also see more on the white than the red/pink/purple. Maybe the whites are less hybridized? :confused:
The white variety is the only one I have seen bees working, but they did appear to be *really* working it.
So many weeds.......so little time.
in athens ga. full bloom but no bees, all i have is white and thay don't care for them, on a side note thay don't like my sunflowers either what gives?
It would be nice if they would hit it here. They are so easy to grow.
I have a few red ones around. The bees will work them but it seems like a last resort deal. I can almost tell when it's time to irrigate the pasture just by watching the myrtle. When the clover dries out, I see bees on the myrtle.
I see more bumble bees than honeybees on our crepes. However, the honeybees love the butterfly bushes and they are really easy to grow. They work the white and purple or lavender bushes best.
I read somewhere that these plants are usually hybridized and that there are three or four different kinds. Some of the hybrids don't produce nectar, while some of the unhybridized or less hybridized ones do. The white ones, on average, probably have less breeding. However, I also remember reading that color alone does not control, and that offspring from a plant with colored flowers can be white.
Assuming that's all true, I think the answer is that some crepe myrtles are good for bees and some aren't. I suppose is could also be affected by climate.
I have some in my yard that bees don't work, but there are some in the neighborhood that they do work.
I have pink one in my yard and see honeybees on them in the mornings. We have a lot of white ones at our church and they are covered with honeybees. I agree they seem to like the white best. Not sure but they appear to be collecting mostly pollen.
I have white ones here and I do see the bees working them. More of butterflies and such but I do see the honeybees on them from time to time.
I have seen them on white and pink...if they are a necter source it is good news here because they bloom all summer long and there are thousands of them within two miles.
Mike Forbes
Red Dirt Apiaries
I saw them this morning working the pink at church but wont touch the red white or pink in my yard. The church is right at 2 miles from the house so maybe my bees but that is more wishful thinking.
Update....Wed I spied bees on a dark red one gathering pollen!!
Mike Forbes
Red Dirt Apiaries
Seems to me like its a matter of preference. If there is something else blooming that they like more, then the Crepe Myrtles are bypassed. If there is not a better source, then the myrtles get their attention. The city where I live has crepe myrtles on every street, mostly pink, and I have not seen much bee activity on them. Then again I haven't been looking all that closely either.
I have lavender planted in my yard, which is listed as a big bee plant, and it is, my bees love it. But it depends on the time of the year and what else is blooming. My lavender is in flower all spring & summer, but in the spring when so much else is blooming you wont see a honey bee any where near it. When the nectar flow dries up they are all over it. For that matter the Tulip Poplar across the street was almost bee free this spring also, I dont know what they were working but it wasn't that.
They definitely like the crepe myrtles here in Charlote.

Hans Rosling:
Global population growth, box by box
The world's population will grow to 9 billion over the next 50 years — and only by raising the living standards of the poorest can we check population growth. This is the paradoxical answer that Hans Rosling unveils at TED@Cannes using colorful new data display technology (you'll see).

Whether it's the world-renowned barbecue, quintessential jazz sound, or the monuments that pay homage to the covered wagons that carved a path through here en route to California, Kansas City has earned the moniker "The Heart of America." Cosmopolitan with a Midwestern soul, Kansas City offers the best mix of down-home hospitality and urban culture. Meander through any of its hundreds of tree-lined boulevards (it has more than Paris) and you'll be greeted to a fountain on nearly every corner and a smile in nearly every street shop.
The Digs
Named the best hotel in Kansas City by The Pitch magazine, Q Hotel + Spa is the metro area's first green hotel—and one of the most environmentally sound in the country, according to Frommer's. Brand-new beds draped in Turkish-cotton linens, Hi-Def flat-screen TVs, iPod/MP3 players, and over-size bath towels come standard with every room, and some rooms boast European-style balconies that overlook the Westport skyline. A sense of wellness permeates the premises with a full-service fitness center and yoga classes offered free of charge to guests. Of course, you'd be remiss not to treat yourself to a body treatment by the expert therapists at the on-site Q Spa. Better still—the hotel offers complimentary shuttle service to and from the city center.
The Diversions
• Grab a cup of premium organic Guatemalan coffee at The Roasterie
• Explore the historic Westport district, considered to be the area's original entertainment destination

• Try a pale ale or wheat beer from Boulevard Brewery Co.

"Near Westport's nightlife but far enough away for a good night's sleep, this locally owned hotel is way ahead of the game when it comes to being green... Perhaps someday all hotels will be as environmentally friendly as this."-- Frommer's

Right around this time, I usually know everything there is to know about the players in the draft, but not this year.
Here's why.
It doesn't really matter who we draft, I am supremely confident in Jerry Reese and the front office, so much so, that whomever they pick is fine with me. I have little doubt they will pick the best player available at 32, so I'm happy with anyone. You won't read a post from me on draft day complaining because I didn't get my guy, this year my guy will be who we pick.
With that said, it kinda takes all the fun out of the draft this year for me, but the FO has earned the right not to get crap from me.

At this point no one knows the long term health effects of Bt corn or sugar beets or cotton or round up ready crops or any other GMO produced food.Labeling such products gives the consumer the choice to decide if the want to beee a part of this research or not.
Im really not that serious
"We oppose mandatory labeling of food and ingredients developed from GM seeds in the absence of any demonstrated risks, as it could be interpreted as a warning or imply that food products containing these ingredients are somehow inferior to their conventional or organic counterparts.
FDA allows food manufacturers the choice to voluntarily label their products noting certain attributes or production methods (e.g., organic) provided the label is truthful and not misleading. We support this approach. Food companies are in the best position to determine what type of information meets the needs and desires of their customers.
A Range of Available Product Choices
Many labeled certified organic or non-GM products are available for consumers who prefer to consume them, consistent with their personal preferences. These varied offerings provide additional choices for all consumers and avoid the potential of misleading the public with mandated labeling that raises concerns about the quality, safety or healthfulness of the products they have come to know and trust."
>Consumers already have the choice to purchase strictly non-GMO foods if they want to
But not because Monsanto wanted it that way... They sued to prevent honest labeling of food...

http://grist.org/food/the-latest-gmo...an-it-answers/ In 1999, Starlink® corn, a variety with the Bt insecticide transgene, was released
on the market, approved only for animal feed, as it contains a highly stable
and allergenic protein that is difficult to break down in the mammalian digestive
system. Insufficient protocols for separating feed corn from food corn
resulted in contamination of food corn with Starlink corn. Unknown numbers
of consumers, probably in the thousands, were sickened due to allergic reactions
to the proteins. the Starlink incident underlines several points. more
Horizontal transfer of transgenes to other organisms has been found, most significantly
to bacteria within the mammalian gut. the CaMV promoter gene
that is included in the transgene package is important in facilitating horizontal
transfer and has been found to be active in human enterocyte-like cells (Myhre
et al., 2006). A UK experiment showed that transgenic DnA can survive digestion
and transfer to bacteria DnA in the human gut (Smith, 2007). Several
studies have shown horizontal transfer of transgenes to occur in test animals
fed transgenic foods (Latham and Steinbrecher, 2004; traavik and Heinemann,
2007). the other gene in the package, the antibiotic resistance gene, is of particular
concern given the possible development of antibiotic resistant enteric
bacteria. Genetic engineers had made the assumption, without adequate
experimental verification, that DnA does not survive the early stages of digestion
there are, in fact, no data comparing the food safety profiles of GM versus
conventional breeding, and the ubiquitous argument that 'since there is no
evidence that GM products make people sick, they are safe' is both illogical
and false. there are, again, simply no data or even valid assays to support
this contention. Without proper epidemiological studies, most types of harm
will not be detected, and no such studies have been conducted (Schubert,
Fact is now one knows if this stuff is safe or not and folks have a right to know wats in the food they purchase.

Chellis 'Kelly' Engstrom
NISSWA — Chellis "Kelly" G. Engstrom, 102, of Nisswa, died Wednesday, Dec. 5, 2012, at Essentia Health-St. Joseph's Medical Center in Brainerd. Funeral services for Kelly will be held at 10 a.m. Saturday, Dec. 8, 2012, at Our Savior's Lutheran Church in Pequot Lakes. Family and friends are invited to gather from 5-7 p.m. on Friday evening at the Brenny Funeral Chapel in Baxter and one hour prior to services at the church in Pequot Lakes. Interment will take place at the Mound Union Cemetery in Mound at 3 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 8, 2012.
Kelly was born March 20, 1910, at LeRoy, Minn., the son of August P. and Ruth Edna (Preston) Engstrom. After graduating from LeRoy High School, Kelly started his 34-year career as a Railway Mail Clerk for the United States Postal Service. He retired in 1970. Kelly was a current member and past-president of the local NARFE (National Association of Retired Federal Employees) and a past member of the Florida Audubon Society. He was also an active member of Our Savior's Lutheran Church where he initiated a scholarship — The Carol A. Engstrom Scholarship Fund — to encourage others to further their education, especially future educators.
Kelly enjoyed traveling; he took many overseas trips to visit historical and natural locations. He also liked to read and bird-watch. Kelly was always willing to lend a hand and enjoyed it — even if it meant clipping tree branches or digging for potatoes.
He will be missed by his daughter, Anita (Blair) Sears; sister, Marjorie Conrad, of Oregon; sisters-in-law, Florence, of Texas, and Margaret, of Iowa; "adopted" daughter, Hanne Juhl; and many nieces, nephews and special friends. He was preceded in death by his loving wife, Carol; parents, Ruth Edna and August Peter Engstrom; sisters, Ruth and Dorris; and brothers, Dana, Verne and Eugene.
A special thanks to the staff at Essentia Health-t. Joseph's Medical Center and Kelly's homecare angels, Jasmine and Bonnie.

Discussion in 'Chevy Truck Accessories' started by ucantcme33, Apr 5, 2012.
Finally got my low pro bed cover, it's been way too long without.
bad pic, sorry.
agreed not the best pic, but the cover looks good
This one is a little better, plus you can see my exhaust! LOL
The cover does look nice...what kind did you get? You'll have to add to your signature. And yes, x3 on the pic :glasses:
It's an Access, Vanish roll up cover.
Much better pic! (looks like you posted just before I did)...and it confirmed what we thought about it looking good. btw...cool exhaust.
Yeah, the exhaust looks good from far away. Not the best place to have chrome tips, road debris beats it up pretty good, but I do my best to keep it clean. thanks.
That looks nice and clean. I'm not sure why you didn't just construct a new wall to block out that window just for the purpose of that picture. You really should think of us looking at the picture. Next time throw up a brand new wall, paint a mural on it of your truck for enhanced decor, then after snapping a single picture, tear it down. :great:
Seriously though, it does look really nice. And I liked it from both angles. Nice choice.

In today's fast-paced world, it is never too early for students to begin to think about the academic and personal steps that will lead to a successful professional career. While students are aware that earning "good grades," "working hard" and doing "good work" are important goals and values, they may find that translating these ideals into concrete steps can be a daunting challenge.
On Friday, Oct. 11, from 1:15 p.m. to 5 p.m., "Jumpstart Your Future: Career Conversations with Hope Alumni" will offer students an opportunity to meet with recent alumni who are pursuing exciting and interesting careers in the fields of business, law, media/communication, and government/public service. The alumni will discuss what paths they have pursued since graduation, and what, if any, academic and personal choices the alumni would have made if they could do their careers at Hope College over again. Jumpstart Your Future is not, however, a spectator event. The afternoon has been designed to include large-group discussions, small-group focus sessions and time for one-on- one contact in order to give all students an opportunity to interact with and ask questions of the invited alumni.
"Jumpstart Your Future" is a groundbreaking event that will permit students to hear first-hand what they can begin to do now to shape their future. The alumni who are returning to campus for this event are a vibrant group of individuals who were active in numerous campus organizations as students, and are looking forward to sharing their experiences with current Hope students.
Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to Jumpstart YOUR Future on October 11!

UTSA shuttle bus (Photo by Jane Wilcox)
Students vote Oct. 9-10 on transportation fee
By Shelley Kilpatrick
Student Writer, College of Liberal and Fine Arts
(Oct. 5, 2007)--A special election on a transportation fee initiative is Oct. 9-10. UTSA students are encouraged to vote on the important initiative.
View a video about the "Hop on Board" transportation initiative (RealPlayer format).
Today's headlines
- La Prensa Foundation is newest member of UTSA Lone Star Society
- UTSA alumna Jordan Kaufmann wins $50K for new stent-graft start-up
- UTSA begins new way-finding sign installation this summer at Main Campus
- USA Today: UTSA long jumper Tyler Williamson rescues three-year-old boy
Article tools
Sponsored by the student organization, Students for Transportation Reform, the goal is to add a transportation fee to enrollment fees, which would provide funding for additional shuttle service to apartment complexes near UTSA, supplement on-campus shuttle services, reduce the cost of most student parking permits and relieve parking congestion.
Students can vote online at the ASAP information system site from 12:01 a.m., Tuesday, Oct. 9 to 11:59 p.m., Wednesday, Oct. 10.
Results will be announced outside the Office of Student Activities, University Center Suite 1.02.08, 1604 Campus at 3 p.m., Thursday, Oct. 11. Additionally, the election results will be posted outside the office.
For more information or voting assistance, call the Office of Student Activities at (210) 458-4160.
Q&A: Proposed transportation fee
A. How much is the parking and transportation fee now?
A. Now there is no transportation fee with the cost of tuition. Parking fees pay for the current shuttle service.
Q. How much will the transportation fee be, if the initiative passes?
A. There would be a $20 fee each semester. The cost of the fee translates to 17 cents per day.
Q. Would it be phased in or all at once?
A. It would be all at once and could not be raised again without a student vote.
Q. If it does pass, will it also have to be approved by the UT System Board of Regents before it can go into affect?
A. Yes, and it already has Texas Legislature approval.
Q. When will the fee go into affect?
A. If the students vote yes, it will go into affect in Fall 2008.
Q. Will permit prices increase later after the first-time reduction for Fall 2008?
It is expected that the implementation of a transportation fee would alleviate some parking problems and reduce the need for new lots and increased prices.
Q. What if the fee is implemented and the surrounding apartment complex residents don't utilize the new shuttle service?
A. Most students say they don't ride the shuttle because it takes too long for it to come. By assessing the fee, more shuttles could be added, which would cut down on wait time. Improved shuttle service should encourage more riding because students would be able to get to classes faster by riding than by driving to campus.
Q. How many buses can you add the first year?
A. Two buses and two new routes to apartment complexes could be added.
Q. Why can't we just get the apartment complexes to pay?
A. Apartment management companies say the shuttle service is needed, but view it as something the university should pay for.
Q. Why isn't a subsidy used, and why doesn't the university pay for it out of current funding?
A. The UT System requires that parking services operates as an auxiliary service, which means it must be self-supporting.
Q. Why not just charge students who are not purchasing permits?
A. There is no system that allows the university to assess a fee only to students who do not purchase a permit. Assessing a fee to all students is the only way to capture the non-permit holders. However, the fee should encourage non-permit holders to ride to campus, which would free up parking spaces for commuters.

Canada confident U.S. will approve major oil pipeline to Gulf
By David Ljunggren
OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canada is confident the United States will approve TransCanada Corp's controversial Keystone XL oil pipeline from Alberta's tar sands to the Gulf Coast, Natural Resources Minister Joe Oliver said on Wednesday.
President Barack Obama, who was re-elected on Tuesday, said in January he would postpone a decision until 2013 on whether to approve the $7.6 billion line, which was initially set to cross ecologically sensitive areas in Nebraska.
In February he welcomed a new TransCanada initiative to build the southern part of the pipeline, at a cost of $2.3 billion. The northern portion, which will cost $5.6 billion, needs State Department approval because it crosses the border.
"We believe that the Keystone XL will be approved by the Americans because it is clearly in the U.S. national interest in terms of national security, jobs (and) economic growth," Oliver told reporters in Ottawa.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper did not mention Keystone XL or oil in a congratulatory message to Obama. Canada is the largest exporter of energy to the United States.
Ottawa says the pipeline, designed to take 830,000 barrels a day to Gulf Coast refineries, would help cut U.S. imports of oil from less stable parts of the world.
"We'll continue of course to advocate for approval of the pipeline ... right now we're not in the middle of an election campaign, and it will be decided by the administration on its merits," said Oliver.
Obama defeated Republican contender Mitt Romney, who had vowed to approve Keystone XL "on Day One" if he won. Continued...

The University of Texas at San Antonio was officially given the green light for creation through a bill signed by Gov. Preston Smith in 1969. The historic signing took place in front of the Alamo, where Smith signed his name to the legislation using the back of its creator, Rep. Frank Lombardino, as a writing board.
Since its inception, the university has grown and greatly contributed to the educational and economic advancements in the region. This spring alone, 2,699 students graduated from UTSA.
With 132 undergraduate and graduate degree programs and more than 28,400 students, UTSA has become the second-largest institution in the University of Texas System and is one of the fastest growing public universities in the state.
>> Starting June 5, view the University Archives' Twitter site, UTSA Yesterday, for postings of historical photos and important dates in the history of the university.
The university will officially celebrate its history Oct. 15 during the President's Scholarship and Awards Dinner at the Marriott Rivercenter hotel in San Antonio.
Another historical highlight was celebrated in May when Ricardo Romo marked his 10th anniversary as president of UTSA. Romo became the fifth president of the university in 1999. Under his leadership, there has been a tremendous increase in student enrollment, faculty hiring, research-related projects, academic programs and campus facilities.
Over the last five years, funding for research and sponsored programs has increased to more than $51 million and the university has contributed more than $1.2 billion to the state's economy.
In related news, the Texas Legislature last month gave the go-ahead for UTSA to be one of a small number of public universities to seek national research university status.
The University of Texas at San Antonio is one of the fastest growing higher education institutions in Texas and the second largest of nine academic universities and six health institutions in the UT System. As a multicultural institution of access and excellence, UTSA aims to be a premier public research university providing access to educational excellence and preparing citizen leaders for the global environment.
UTSA serves more than 28,400 students with 64 bachelor's, 47 master's and 21 doctoral degree programs in the colleges of Architecture, Business, Education and Human Development, Engineering, Honors, Liberal and Fine Arts, Public Policy, Sciences and Graduate School. Founded in 1969, UTSA is an intellectual and creative resource center and a socioeconomic development catalyst for Texas and beyond.

Throughout the holidays there will be a free towing service program available in the Lake Area.
The Tow & Geaux program aims to keep motorists who may have had too much to drink and are impaired off the roadways.
Elite Service, Gator 99.5 and Budweiser are partnering to provide the service.
Tow & Geaux will be available in the Lake Charles, Sulphur and Westlake areas only.
It will be offered through Dec. 31.
"Drinking responsibly should be a personal goal for all holiday merrymakers," Ben Marriner, president of Southwest Beverage, said in a news release.
"But in the event that someone needs assistance in getting home, we felt it important to offer this program. There is no telling how many lives may be saved with Tow & Geaux during this holiday season," he said.
Marriner encourages the public to utilize the service in an attempt to keep the streets safe for families and friends.
Chad Talbot, on-premise sales representative for Southwest Beverage, said this is the fifth year it has taken place and every year gets "better and better."
"We just want people to get home safely," Talbot said. "We're doing our part to promote drinking responsibly."
Last year they did about 15 tows for the week, Talbot said.
"Our customers at bars and clubs have helped get the word out as well," Talbot said. "We really get pumped up about this."
For a free ride and tow home, motorists should call Elite Services at 433-3548 anytime during the program period.

GCOLA partners with Lake Shore to fight AIS
The Gull Chain of Lakes Association (GCOLA) is partnering with the city of Lake Shore to prevent the introduction of invasive species at the Department of Natural Resources public access launch near Zorbaz off County Road 77 in Lake Shore.
GCOLA is paying for off-duty police to be present at the launch site to assist boaters with their inspections, and have committed to ticket violations of Minnesota laws preventing the transport of aquatic species as well as transporting boats with closed drain plugs or other containers of lake water.
"The message to boaters is that the city of Lake Shore is very serious about preventing the introduction of aquatic invasive species," said Ron Faust, GCOLA board member.
While curly leaf pondweed is being managed reasonably well in Lake Margaret, Eurasian water milfoil is expected to be a much more serious problem if it gets into the lake, especially in the channel and around the docks at Bar Harbor and Zorbaz.
The police officers have gone through the DNR's training program for aquatic invasive species and boat inspections. While officers were present for about 30 hours per month in June and July, the program is being stepped up to 45 hours for August and extended into September.
"The GCOLA board and Lake Shore Police Chief Steve Sundstrom are very pleased with how this is working," Faust said.

Affordable Care Act affects hospitals
Local hospitals are struggling to financially deal with cuts made by the Affordable Care Act.
Wellmont Health System decided to close the Lee Regional Medical Center Wednesday.
Denny DeNarvaez, CEO, Wellmont told us cuts in reimbursement fees for services made it hard to keep the hospital open.
The federal government pays for 60-65% of care given by Wellmont, said DeNarvaez.
In the case of Lee Hospital, it was closer to 85%, she said.
"State funding by far is the more significant immediate issue that could be expanded," said DeNarvaez. "There's quite a few folks particularly in the Northeast Tennessee region that would qualify under Medicaid expansion."
The federal government gave funds, through the Affordable Care Act, to the states for Medicaid expansion, she said.
Both Tennessee and Virginia state governments did not approve the expansion so the hospitals will not get the funds, which could offset the cuts in care reimbursements.
"In those states where Medicaid is going to be expanded, they had got what they believed they signed up for," said DeNarvaez, "Unfortunately for us, in both Tennessee and Virginia where we have our hospital and in the community we serve neither state has decided to expand Medicaid"
The states' decisions not to approve the funding hit the Tri-Cities Region hard, said DeNarvaez.
"We have a situation where many of the cuts under the Affordable Care Act have gone into place and we have nothing to sub it for," she said.
The cuts come as part of a movement from fee-for-service based operations and towards value-based services.
"Somewhat of the challenge is that hospitals the old way have been about taking care of patients when they're sick and we're transitioning into a time when we need to keep them well," said Tony Benton, Vice President of communications, Mountain State Health Alliance.
Hospitals now pay a re-admittance fee, an effort to enforce quality care to patients during their first stay at any hospital.
"The health industry was already in the process of changing and decades of fee-for-service model where more procedures that are done, the more visits that are done, the more providers get paid is shifting to a fee-for-value system," said Benton.
The Affordable Care Act is a push towards that form of service.
The Affordable Care Act cuts are hitting hard right now because the industry is still transitioning, Benton and DeNarvaez agree.
"The problem is we have a foot on the dock and a foot in the boat right now and it's stretching us," described Denarvaez.
The Affordable Care Act forced Wellmont to streamline their operations, said DeNarvaez.
"There is no question that much of what Obamacare was designed to do, is again, to not have folks step off at one facility just to be transferred to another which is expensive," she said.
That's another one of the reasons, said Denarvaez, that they closed Lee Regional Medical Center.
Mountain States Health Alliance is dealing with the cuts by investing in their hospitals, said Benton.
They are spending money on technology to bring better physicians to their hospitals in order to bring in more patients instead of cutting staff, said Benton
"We are able to again continue to invest in technology," he said. "We are adding capacity and keeping up infrastructure that we have so we can continue to produce services."
They expect cuts to services and staff over the next 10 years, Benton and DeNarvaez told us.

Reviews of this property
well located property with 10-15 mins walk to the centre of Sultanhemet and 10-15 min walk to the nearest tram. very close to local supermarkets, restaurants, fish market and shops. bit tricky to find but call the number provided and they will guide you. We took metro and tram from Ataturk airport and then walked to apartment. The road the apartment is in is opposite "best shoes" shop on the main road and the front door to the block is opposite the front door of the Ottoman tulip hotel. Apartment comfortable and clean, wii fi a bit patchy, water went off for a few hours twice but this is normal for Istanbul. keep kettle filled and spare water. You should enjoy your stay there.
We enjoyed our weekend stay in Istanbul and were glad that we chose to stay in this apartment.
The location was conveniently located near (15 minutes walking) many of the major tourist attractions in the historic center of Istanbul. Additionally, it was located within a couple of minutes from a tram stop in case the weather was not conducive to walking. The gentlemen that met us at the apartment to give us the keys were very courteous and waiting for us at the apartment when we arrived. The apartment was as described and perfect for 2 people. The apartment was clean and we definitely appreciated the daily housekeeping service.
As mentioned in other reviews, while not an issue for us, it's worth noting that the stairs leading to the apartment are relatively steep and narrow. All things considered, we would not hesitate to stay at this apartment again if we found ourselves in Istanbul.
Very lovely flat in a great location. It's a little smaller than it looks in the pictures, and the view of the sea is over the top of some rather crumbling rooftops, but neither of those things detracted from our enjoyment. It's a few streets away from the crowds, but only a few minutes' walk from a busy little restaurant area with great food and live music. Saban and Cem were very helpful and responsive. Highly recommended.
The view of the sea-we enjoyed despite curtain on the windows-very. The views to the other pages were legitimately protected by opaque curtains. The suite is well-equipped, clean and cleaned daily. The area is of "morbid beauty", what we liked. Were shopping and Eateries abound. Saban is very friendly, the entire Organistation and the transfer to the airport was great. Istanbul we will visit again, and would the suite would then again in our short list.
Den Blick auf das Meer haben wir -trotz Gitter vor dem Fenster- sehr genossen. Die Ausblicke zu den anderen Seiten waren berechtigterweise durch blickdichte Gardinen geschützt. Die Suite ist gut ausgestattet, ist sauber und wird täglich gereinigt.
Das Viertel ist von "morbider Schönheit", was uns gut gefallen hat. Einkaufs -und Einkehrmöglichkeiten gab es reichlich.
Saban ist sehr freundlich, die gesamte Organistation und der Transfer zum Flughafen lief super.
Istanbul besuchen wir sicher noch einmal und die Suite wäre dann auch wieder in unserer engeren Wahl.
A great place to stay in Sultanahmet - we recommend the Penthouse Suite. Very convenient for many of the sights which were within easy walking distance. Facilities were available for preparing and eating food but with restaurants aplenty a few minutes stroll away we found ourselves out and about all day. Saban not only provided us with accommodation, he arranged an excellent excursion to Gallipoli: an emotional but worthwhile experience. Many thanks Saban.
The stay was - also thanks to the beautiful and clean apartments a complete success. The home location is central, you can orientate yourself by hir good in Istanbul. But: Steep stairs, you have to be anywhere in Istandbul well FSS - but here too! We will come back to this apartment
Der Aufenthalt war - auch Dank des schönen und sauberen Appartements ein voller Erfolg. Die Wohnlage ist zentral, man kann sich von hir aus in Istanbul gut orientieren. Aber: Steile Treppe, man muß überall in Istandbul gut zu Fß sein - hier aber auch! Wir kommen wieder in diese Wohnung
Saban is a very obliging and helpful host who gave us a warm welcome to his comfortable well equipped apartment. A perfect size for 2 people, and we loved the view of the ships on the sea! Located in an area of 'real' Istanbul, but close to all the major sites. We really enjoyed our visit and can highly recommend staying here.
Very good service by owner of the apartment and good English (e-Mail and phone). Centrally located in old "Sultanahmet-District", about 10 minutes walk to next tram-station "Beyazit" and the "Grand Bazar" as well as about 15 minutes to "Hagia Sophia", "Blue Mosque", "Topkapi Palace" and "Gülhane Park". Ideal for sightseeing by walk. Comfortable equipment, very clean by daily cleaning service, always hot water, air condition, lovely view on Marmara sea. TV/Radio: even some German ones (via hotbird satellite). Parking facility: not used, but should be clarified in advance where exactly when needed!
We (2) just returned from 5 days in Istanbul. 5 days of discoveries, surprises, delights .. through a huge city. Small apartment, chosen at random for the price, comfortable, perfect location, near tram (growing a little) and bazaar (it goes down!), In a lively and typical view of the Bosphorus. Host a particularly discreet but friendly and available. Recommended!

In your review of Explorer Sport you mention the extra bite of the tires-ContiSportContact, yet the pictures accompanying the article show the tires to be Hankook. Is this a misprint an error or does the buyer have a choice?
The ContiSportContacts are an optional summer tire. The standard Hankook Optimos are all-season tires sized 255/50R20. The Continental summer tires are sized 265/45R20.

The game uses streamed music, i.e. not pulled from a user's iPhone library. This is a major gameplay enhancement compared to other music quiz games on the Appstore, since all players enjoy a music quiz on an equal footing from the same playlist.
The game includes 3 different modes that can be played alone or with friends (2, 3 or 4 players) on the same iPhone/iPod:
- "Buzz" mode where the iPhone becomes a multiplayer-buzzer: players have to be the fastest to buzz, to say the answer out loud, which is then displayed on the phone;
- "MCQ" mode (Multiple Choice Question) where multiple answers are proposed, incorrect answers disappear over time;
- "Expert" mode for experienced gamers who don't need help and want to respond using the iPhone keyboard.

And multiple queen cells.
I went over to a friends house to try to help her with her hive. Seems like every time I get in a hive the details are different and I feel like I need to go back to grade school all over again. I didn't really know what to do. This hive was nekked of brood - I mean not a single ANYTHING.
From reading Bush Bee Math, this means no queen for 24 days? But it says queen cell to laying is 20 days. This hive had multiple unhatched queen cells. What am I missing?
Also, what should we have done? Just put it back and left it alone? That's basically what we did, except we added another box since much of the other frames had pollen or honey or nectar in it. I don't think it was honey bound. The bottom box seemed to have room.
I wasn't sure we could do a split (because of all the queen cells) without any brood at all. Is that correct? But here sits this hive with no brood and queen cells, so I kept feeling like we might should have split. I hope we erred on the side of caution. I was previously told to let the queen hatch and take care of the other queen cells. Any input? Thanks.

See what I mean?
I don't disagree with honey being better for bees than sugar. However, there are financial and practical reasons for feeding syrup.
Tower hives are old news. Someone does it in the local community garden every year. It works once in a while.
The vg/fat bees requirement is hypothetical.
Have either you or Randy every extracted and quantified vg proteins at any time?
However, we're still far away from treatment free beekeeping issues. No, this wouldn't be a 'good' first step either.
