Thank you. The bees gather white pollen from this plant.
I honestly don't think it's boneset ... at least not the one I know which is the Common Boneset. My reasoning is because the leaves of boneset are sessile, clasping the stem of the plant. The plant in the photo clearly has leaves with petioles. However, I do not consider myself a professional botanist or plant taxonomist and I may not know all the species of boneset.
Good eyes. Then it must be white snakeroot.
Appreciate your knowledge!

Your Skin 101: The Breakdown
Your skin is made up of three layers. The top layer, called the epidermis, is made up of cells called keratinocytes. These cells are the protein-rich material in your hair and nails. The epidermis is covered in a thin layer of dead skin cells called the >stratum corneum, also called the "horny layer". This layer is often thick on areas like feet (when you have calluses), and is thinner on areas like your face.Regular exfoliation helps keep the stratum corneum thin.
Below the epidermis is the dermis.Blood vessels run through the dermis, which helps regulate body temperature, and an intricate network of nerves pick up feelings from the outside world, like touch and temperature.
Sweat and sebum glands live in the dermis, which are responsible for regulating the moisture content of your skin. The dermis also contains the fibers collagen and elastin to give your skin elasticity and strength.
The very bottom layer is made up of fatty cells that act as a cushion to absorb impact, called the subcuticus.

Open thread: Sunday morning talking heads
posted at 8:01 am on October 7, 2012 by Allahpundit
How slim are the pickings this week? So slim that this guy, who hasn't mattered politically in at least five years, is the highest-profile guest across the four major shows today. If you want to watch him sell his book and run through the familiar two-step with David Gregory about how the GOP is too radical, then "Meet the Press" is your choice.
If not, no worries. Ninety percent of the chatter on every show this morning will focus on Romney's humiliation of Obama on Wednesday night, which means we're in for one of the most enjoyable Sundays in recent memory. Gingrich's "MTP" showing, in particular, should be chock full of gleeful knife-twisting. The line-up via WaPo:
NBC's Meet the Press: Arnold Schwarzenegger; Newt Gingrich; Robert Gibbs, Senior Adviser to the Obama campaign; Hilary Rosen, Democratic strategist; Mike Murphy, Republican strategist; Chuck Todd, NBC
CBS' Face the Nation: David Axelrod, Obama's senior campaign adviser; Tony LaRussa, manager of the Cardinals; Tommy Lasorda, Dodgers manager; Jane Leavy, author; Michael Gerson, Washington Post; John Fund, The American Spectator; Norah O'Donnell, CBS; John Dickerson, CBS
ABC's This Week: Robert Gibbs, Obama campaign senior adviser; Ed Gillespie, Romney campaign senior adviser; Bill O'Reilly, Fox News; James Carville, Democratic strategist; Mary Matalin, Republican strategist; Paul Krugman, New York Times; Peggy Noonan, Wall Street Journal; Jonathan Karl, ABC
Fox News Sunday: Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-NH); Gov. Martin O'Malley (D-MD); Brett O'Donnell, political debate coach; Brit Hume, Fox News; Mara Liasson, NPR; Kimberley Strassel, Wall Street Journal; Kirsten Powers, Daily Beast

I hope some entrepreneur is compiling the multi-DVD volume of all the Dems, Hollywood stars, and MSM hacks predicting Obama will win because he is an oratorical genius, and making preposterous excuses for his Denver debate debacle. It would be guaranteed to be a best-selling video, and I expect at least a whole DVD could be devoted to Krugsy the Clown, if not several of them!

This roundup of notable recent items about scientific research,
culled from news reports, was compiled from Science in the
News Daily and Science in the News Weekly, free
electronic newsletters produced by Sigma Xi. Online:
sitn.sigmaxi.org and www.americanscientist.org/sitnweekly
The Solar System Loses One of Its Planets
The International Astronomical Union stripped Pluto of its status as
a planet, reclassifying it as a "dwarf planet" under
historic new guidelines. The newly adopted scheme also includes a
third category of objects, "small solar system bodies"
such as asteroids and comets. The decision was reached after days of
debate among 2,500 astronomers at the union's general
assembly—a debate that is not yet over. The list of
astronomers in disagreement with the assembly's decision includes
Alan Stern of the Southwest Research Institute, who calls the
decision "sloppy science," and Harvard professor Owen
Gingerich, chair of the definition committee, who implied that the
decision was hijacked in a "revolt" by one subgroup.
Gene May Explain Boost in Brain Power
Researchers have found a clue as to why human mental
capacities are so much greater than those of chimpanzees. A gene
that has undergone significant change in the human line since the
two species split some 5 million years ago may partly account for
the accelerated evolution of our brains. Although the investigators
do not know exactly what the RNA product of this gene does, they
believe it is active at a key time and place in embryonic
development when the brain is growing at its fastest pace.
Pollard, K. S. et al. An RNA gene expressed during cortical
development evolved rapidly in humans. Nature
443:167–172 (September 14)
Ozone Hole May Soon Shrink in Size
David Hofman and Susan Solomon, two scientists who had helped alert
the world to the existence of a menacing hole in the stratospheric
ozone layer above Antarctica, recently reported that this worrisome
feature of the atmosphere appears to have stopped widening. After
the hole was discovered in 1986, international agreements were
reached to end the use of ozone-depleting chemicals
(chlorofluorocarbons, or CFCs), and these measures may allow the
hole to "heal" completely sometime over the next century.
Dark Matter Really Does Exist
After studying data from a long-ago collision of two giant clusters
of galaxies, some astronomers claim that they have found proof that
subatomic dark matter actually does exist and plays a central role
in creating and defining gravity throughout the universe. For
decades, scientists have theorized that much of the universe is made
up of nearly undetectable dark matter and dark energy. Others prefer
alternative interpretations. This latest finding will no doubt
influence an active debate among physicists and cosmologists.
Clowe, D. et al. A direct empirical proof of the
existence of dark matter. The Astrophysical Journal
648:L109–L113 (September 10)
Not a Newfound Human Species
A new study casts serious doubt on the proposal that the ancient
bones of a diminutive hominid found two years ago on the Indonesian
island of Flores represent those of an entirely new species of
ancestral human. Scientists from Indonesia, Australia and the United
States conducted a comprehensive analysis based on their own
firsthand examination of the available bones, which include a single
mostly complete skull. The evidence, they report, suggests that the
enigmatic skull belonged to a pygmy human who suffered from a
developmental abnormality.
Jacob, T. et al. Pygmoid Australomelanesian Homo
sapiens skeletal remains from Liang Bua, Flores: Population
affinities and pathological abnormalities. Proceedings of
the National Academy of Sciences of the U.S.A.
103:13421–13426 (September 5)
Many Dinosaurs Yet to Be Discovered
Two-thirds of the world's fossil dinosaurs may still await
discovery, according to a new statistical analysis. Paleontologists
had identified 285 dinosaur genera between the early 1800s and 1990,
but that number has since jumped to 527, an increase of 85 percent.
This observation implies that the current fossil boom will likely
continue, particularly as new lands are explored. The authors of the
new study estimate the total number of "recoverable"
genera at 1,844. They predict that 400 new varieties will be
discovered in the next 30 years as paleontologists explore
fossiliferous beds of appropriate age in China, Argentina and
elsewhere in the world. The pace of new dinosaur discoveries should
level off finally sometime in the 22nd century.

dinosaurs. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of
the U.S.A. 103:13601–13605 (September 12)
First Tree Genome Sequenced
An international team of researchers has sequenced a tree genome.
The four-year effort was the first of its kind. The black
cottonwood, a variety of poplar, was chosen because it has
relatively little DNA. It is hoped that sequencing trees can help
the forestry industry to improve its products, including alternative
fuels such as bioethanol. It may also be possible to engineer trees
that can capture greater-than-normal amounts of carbon dioxide from
the atmosphere.

cottonwood, Populus trichocarpa(Torr. & Gray).

Free personalized radio that
plays the music you love
Jermaine Dupri
His promising musical career began before he was even ten years old. His father, Atlanta manager Michael Mauldin, had coordinated a Diana Ross show in 1982; to the delight of concert-goers, Dupri managed to get on-stage and dance along with Ross. He began performing around the country, appearing with Herbie Hancock and Cameo before he opened the New York Fresh Festival, with Run-D.M.C., Whodini, and Grandmaster Flash. Dupri's production career began in 1987, when at the age of 14 he produced and secured a record contract for the trio Silk Tymes Leather. Two years later, he formed So So Def Productions in Atlanta; by 1991 Dupri had found his first platinum act.
After seeing the pint-size rap duo Kris Kross performing in a local mall, he signed them and prepared their debut album. Totally Krossed Out spent two weeks at number one and quickly sold four million copies. The pair's lack of staying power was somewhat obvious, and Dupri kept working, producing tracks on TLC's first two albums, which sold over 15 million copies between the two of them.
During 1993-1994, Dupri debuted two of his new So So Def acts, Xscape and Da Brat. Both debut albums hit platinum, thanks in large part to Dupri, and by the end of 1994, he had become one of the most respected R&B producers in the business. He worked with superstar Mariah Carey and old-school rap acts like Run-D.M.C. and Whodini. Dupri's next major success came in 1997, when he took over the production for a sophomore album by a suave teenage R&B singer named Usher. The album, My Way, became one of the biggest of the year, selling over two million copies in its first three months of release.
Taking a page from the book of fellow super-producer Sean "Puffy" Combs (who debuted a solo project in mid-1997), Dupri returned to performing in early 1998 with a single, "The Party Continues." After collaborating with Snoop Doggy Dogg, fellow Atlanta residents OutKast, Slick Rick, Nas, and Master P, he released his debut solo album (as JD), Life in 1472, in July 1998. Instructions followed in 2001. ~ John Bush

text: Mgolden, let me explain. With 9 frames in the brood chamber they draw it out more than ten but only to a certain extant as the brood cannot be reared in a cell that is too long. Therefore their is more space within the brood chamber. This reduces congestion and adds ventilation. Within the honey supers, you are correct, they draw out the cells as close as they would be in ten which makes them easier to uncap. Also, longer cells make longer bees. Why do you think queen breeders pick out the biggest queen cells. I dont make this stuff up.

California water officials express meager hope
SACRAMENTO, Calif. - Officials say February's rain storms pleasantly boosted the state's water supply, but California remains in the throes of a drought.
State Water Resources Control Board executive Tom Howard said Tuesday he will sign an order allowing water to be pumped from the San Joaquin Delta. But how any extra water gets allocated is up to state and federal authorities that oversee a pair of vast waterways.
Nancy Vogel of the state's Department of Water Resources said things aren't likely to change for farmers told earlier this year that they will receive little if any irrigation water this summer from state sources.
The mountain snowpack and reservoir levels will be measured again in April, when officials say they will assess the ongoing drought crisis.

Big step in cleaning up Hanford plutonium plant
RICHLAND, Wash. - Cleanup workers have taken a big step in cleaning up a plant on the Hanford nuclear reservation that processed plutonium for nuclear weapons.
They have removed a section of gloveboxes that weighed 10 tons. Gloveboxes protected workers handling radioactive material.
The Tri-City Herald reports more than 200 gloveboxes are being dismantled and buried as the Plutonium Finishing Plant is demolished.
The plant operated for 40 years, starting in 1949. Cleanup plans call for workers to finish demolition in 2016.
The 10-ton piece was so big, workers started practicing for the job in January on a mock-up.

Special for The Willits News
Mendocino County prosecutors last Thursday successfully blocked the release on parole of Kirk Anthony Domingo, age 40, for at least the next five years. Domingo was convicted in March 1995 of forcible rape and having been previously convicted of a prior serious felony.
In May 1995 Domingo was sentenced to an indeterminate sentence in the state prison.
Representing the District Attorney's Office and the family of the victim, Deputy District Attorney Beth Norman pressed for a denial of Domingo's bid for parole at the suitability hearing convened at the Department of Corrections' Medical Facility at Vacaville. Since 1995, Domingo has been serving a sentence of 15 years to life. He is currently housed at the Salinas Valley State Prison.
Domingo, through his attorney, offered to stipulate to a three-year denial of parole but Norman rejected that offer and argued her case against release to the commissioners. Referencing evidence from 1995 and prison records, Norman argued Domingo is a violent criminal who, if he was to be released, would still present a clear and present danger to any community where he might be allowed to live.
District Attorney David Eyster praised Norman's efforts to keep Domingo behind bars. "I remember Domingo and his crime from my first stint as a local prosecutor. Domingo proved back then that he is very dangerous. I personally believe Domingo is not a person who should be released, and he especially should not ever be allowed back into Mendocino County."
Domingo pled guilty to the rape and special allegation in 1995 but then fought unsuccessfully to withdraw that guilty plea and admission. Domingo had met the victim at some point earlier through a granddaughter. When the elderly woman became concerned and asked Domingo to leave her home, he turned violent, put a knife to her face and demanded money from her purse, according to police reports.
As Domingo rummaged through the woman's purse, the victim later reported to authorities she had attempted to flee. Enraged by the escape attempt, Domingo pushed the woman to the floor, a fall that broke her hip. He continued to threaten the woman, and then raped her despite her serious and painful hip injury. The victim was then forced into the bathroom, where she was further ordered by Domingo to clean herself in an attempt to destroy any evidence of the sexual attack.
Ultimately, Domingo left the badly injured women in the bathroom with the door tied closed, taking her money and her car keys.
Domingo's criminal record prior to 1995 included felony convictions in both California and Oregon.

But we had to start off in the place that seems to only breed touts, Nariobi. Nairobi is a dirty, polluted, dangerous city. The minute that we stepped off the plane to the minute we were secure in our safari vehicle, we were being harassed. The touts are amazingly fierce and persistent, and will wait for you while you eat dinner if you simply say "maybe later" or will find you in impossibly crowded streets hours after you have blown them off. We left as quickly as we could
We headed off to Lake Nakuru first, renowned for its pink flamingos. And it was a beautiful sight, to look upon the lake and see a sea of pink! They actually let us out of the vehicle that time so we could just walk along the lakeside and enjoy not just the sight but the stinky smell of tens of thousands of flamingos. The other thing that Lake Nakuru is famous for is their rhinos, which is one of the harder of the Big Five Animals to see. It was a beautiful and impressively large creature that could have easily tossed our flimsy safari vehicle at anytime, but we were able to get within 10 feet of one.
The highlight of the safari was Maasai Mara. The Serengeti and Maasai Mara are actually a single wildlife park called different names because one is in Tanzania and the other in Kenya. The animals don't make that distinction, though, and the great wildebeest migration was on! Hundreds of thousands of wildebeest make the migration from Tanzania to Kenya every year to get to better grazing land. And along the way, the predators follow them preying on the young, the old, and the weak. So that means the cats follow them.
Sharad's favorite part of the whole trip was the cheetah's dinner
After days of camping we were ready for some luxury as we headed off to a hotel in Ngorogoro Crater, Tanzania. Ngorogoro Crater is an old volcano that has collapsed in on itself leaving this rich valley that is filled with amazing wildlife. The view from the rim is spectacular and it just can't be described in words or captured in pictures. You must all go.
We've finally had our fill of safariing, and so we're off for some R&R at the beautiful tropical island of Zanzibar, off the coast of Tanzania.

Is it a steel or aluminum alloy frame ?
The process used will be different for each.
Aluminum frames are anodized - hardened pretty much only on the outside. You want to be careful not to remove that when you refinish.
If steel, stainless or blued ? If it's stainless, it could have a blackened finish. Stainless steel is hard to blue.
You need to know exactly what you have before you can decide on how to refinish it.
It might be better to have it done professionally.

Tungsten Matrix is a patented blend of pure tungsten powder in a polymer matrix specifically developed to match the physical and ballistic properties of premium quality lead shots. Kent IMPACT Tungsten Matrix waterfowl pellets are uniform in size, have consistent density and superior muzzle velocities to deliver maximum energy to the target.
Other tungsten products are restricted to the limitations of steel. These limitations are not found in Kent Tungsten Matrix products because of Kent's unique lead-like characteristics. That also means Kent IMPACT Tungsten Matrix waterfowl loads are safe for use in older nitro-proofed or high-grade fixed choke barrels. If you have never pulled the trigger on Kent's Tungsten Matrix you are in for a very pleasant surprise. Unmatched performance must be seen for it to be truly appreciated. Just pull the trigger.

Re: COOKIES ANONYMOUS
I'll be sure to try it when I'm craving a chewy yet crunchy cookie!
The moulding of the dough confuses me a little though....take me thru this Montana...
So you tear off the dough to form 2 crescents,then rotate and push together to form...like a wavey curl?
Huh? :shock:

Re: COOKIES ANONYMOUS
Roll the ball of dough between your hands. Then holding the ball with both hands, pull it apart.
Now, rotate the left hand a 1/4 of a turn to the left (counter clockwise), so the "ripped" part is looking at you. Do the same (but clockwise this time) with your right hand.
Both ripped parts are facing you. Now, just push the smooth side together, so the ripped parts are still facing you. Place on the parchment paper (ripped end facing the sky) and kind of pinch them so they stand up properly, at the base.
As you'll see when they sit there, they are pretty BIG chunks of dough - only put 6 per baking sheet. Once cooked, the middles appear a bit higher than the rest.
Crunchy on the outside, nice and chewy as should be on the inside.

Re: COOKIES ANONYMOUS
hey ronii
my guess would be overcooked! i always try to undercook my cookies and muffins and banana bread etc so the stay nice and moist and gooey and yummy. overcookin' your cookies are probably drying them out too much. try to take them out a few minutes before the recipe calls for when the centre is still soft. they harden up more as they cool! good luck!

MARTIN SCHRAM: U.S. concerned over Pakistani nukes
Leaks from on-the-lam National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden have now exposed America's biggest nuclear nightmare. The United States knows far too little about the uncertain security of Pakistan's nuclear arsenal, and U.S. intelligence has mounted a huge secret effort to prevent terrorists from obtaining that country's nuclear weapons or materials, The Washington Post reported Monday.
But as the capital cognoscenti ponder the implications of The Post's stunning scoop, a second nightmare about Pakistan's nuclear weapons has gone unmentioned. Namely, the prospect that an accidental nuclear war could be triggered between India and Pakistan, because the bucolic borderland of Kashmir remains as hostile as ever. Make no mistake: It could happen, as a concerned former Pakistani general detailed for me years ago.
Meanwhile, it is a perverse sign of our times that the bad news reported by The Post nevertheless may be good news for those who fear such an accidental war. We'll tie it all together in a minute.
First, the newspaper report, based on documents Snowden provided, outlined U.S. concerns about counterterrorism "intelligence gaps" inside Pakistan.
U.S. intelligence fears that Islamist militants may have penetrated Pakistani intelligence and military and may be able to "launch an insider attack or smuggle out nuclear material." The Post reported that nuclear-security concerns "are so pervasive that a budget section on containing the spread of illicit weapons divides the world into two categories: Pakistan and everybody else."
U.S. intelligence remains largely in the dark about the locations of Pakistan's nuclear labs, production and storage facilities — and how and when materials are moved from place to place.
The Post quoted a familiar expert — Pakistan's retired Brig. Gen. Feroz Khan, a former director of arms control and disarmament now living in the United States — on just what U.S. intelligence knows and, mainly, doesn't know.
"Nobody knows how they truly do it," Khan was quoted. "Vehicles move in a stealthy manner and move with security. But it's not clear whether the cores are moved to the warheads or the warheads are moved to the core locations."
That took me back to my first talk with the same Gen. Khan, in 2002, while I was researching a book and a television documentary about poorly secured "loose nukes" and the possibility of accidental nuclear war. Back then, India and Pakistan seemed on the verge of yet another war over Kashmir — much as they do today. Indeed, The Post reported that intelligence documents show officials' concern that extremists in Pakistan could seize nuclear materials or even "trigger a war with neighboring India."
Back in 2002, Khan was concerned that in a war between nuclear neighbors India and Pakistan — where one side has just minutes to decide to retaliate in a perceived nuclear strike — even a careful general could inadvertently start a nuclear war.
"Once the conventional war breaks out, the fog of war sets in," Khan told me then. "And during war, you have deceptions. You have misperceptions. You have communications breakdowns."
He outlined several scenarios leading to unintentional nuclear war. Among them: India launches a missile that Pakistan knows is "nuclear-capable" — yet it carries a non-nuclear warhead. But a Pakistani general, told it's an incoming nuclear missile, launches his nukes. In each case, the country first hit with a nuclear strike retaliates tenfold, igniting a massive nuclear war.
Here's a frightening coincidence: India and Pakistan are still at it over Kashmir. In 2013, several sporadic sniping incidents — believed started by militants who prefer war to peace — led to deaths on both sides. The most recent was just last month.
Now we have reached our perverse-but-true news linkage. George Perkovich, vice president for studies at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, noted in an interview that The Post's bad-news scoop has produced one good-news benefit.
"While it is of course bad news that we don't know where Pakistan's nuclear stuff is, it also turns out to be good news when it comes to concerns of accidental nuclear war," Perkovich said. "The good news is that since we don't know where Pakistan's nuclear stuff is, that means India can't know precisely what to target either.
"So the old concern that a nuclear nation that is under attack must use them or lose them just isn't as great in this case as we always assumed it was."

Personally, if I was going to go with a .380 it would be for pocket carry. In that case, it makes much more sense to go smaller and lighter. The P3AT (or Ruger LCP) is lighter and smaller than the Bersa. So, why go with the bersa? If you're going to go IWB, than the Bersa isn't much easier to conceal than your Taurus either I wouldn't think. What would it's purpose be?
I will own a P3AT or Ruger LCP in the near future. I don't see any Bersas in my future. There are plenty of people that have no issues with the Bersas at all, but if I was going for a gun that would for the most part be a BUG or an ultra-concealable type gun (the only reasons to go with a .380 IMO), than it would be the smallest possible (Read - P3AT, LCP). Just my .02

Passenger security screening
Every passenger and member of staff must pass through the passenger security screening checkpoints in all terminals. Therefore, your cooperation and patience is appreciated whilst our well-trained security staff carry out their necessary duties.
Whilst waiting for screening, please help us ensure you pass through the security process as smoothly as possible. Passengers are requested to empty all pockets, take off any upper body over garments (jacket, blazer, coat, waistcoat, etc.) and place their belongings and garments in the plastic trays. Belts and shoes may also have to be taken off upon request (in the latter case, foot sacks are available if required). All laptop computers must be removed from your hand baggage and placed into a separate tray. The state-of-the-art X-ray machines used for screening passengers have no impact on health, pacemakers or celluloid photos.
Any liquids, aerosols and gels (under the allowable 100ml limit) must also be removed from your hand baggage and screened in a transparent plastic bag. If the passenger does not have a clear plastic pouch, it can be bought at the news stands (hub, Relay) before the security screening points.
More information:
Telephone: (+36 1) 296 7000
According to comission regulation (EU) No 185/2010: Without prejudice to applicable safety rules, passengers are not permitted to carry the following articles into security restricted areas and on board an aircraft:
(a) guns, firearms and other devices that discharge projectiles — devices capable, or appearing capable, of being used to cause serious injury by discharging a projectile, including:

— items designed for chopping, such as axes, hatchets and cleavers,
— ice axes and ice picks,
— razor blades,
— box cutters,
— knives with blades of more than 6 cm, EN L 55/16 Official Journal of the European Union 5.3.2010

Can drones be carried in hand baggage?
Based on the recommendations of the Hungarian authorities, Budapest Airport currently applies the following practice with regard to the transportation of drones, i.e. unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), in hand baggage:
The rotor blades of drones can be classified under "objects with a sharp point or sharp edge", pursuant to section c) of attachment 4-C of Commission implementing regulation (EU) 2015/1998 laying down detailed measures for the implementation of the common basic standards on aviation security. Therefore, if the length of the rotor blades exceeds 6 cm, they cannot be carried in hand baggage.
Also, in view of the maximum speed and mass of drones during operation (which significantly increase the risk of causing serious injury in case of potential impact), the operation of UAVs in public (arrivals and departure halls) and in non-public (transit area, taxiways, aprons) areas would pose a significant risk to the physical integrity of passengers and their escorts, as well as to aircraft. Therefore, we wish to prevent the operation of UAVs in these areas. This is another reason why they may not be carried in hand baggage.
We would like to emphasize that passengers have the possibility of transporting drones in their hold baggage.
The security of our passengers is our top priority. We are committed to do our utmost to maintain this.

About the Certificate Program:
SRJC offers a broad array of occupational certificate programs that provide a course of study preparing students directly for employment or self-employment upon completion of the program. Most certificate programs are developed through the collaboration of SRJC faculty and industry leaders and employers who sit on Advisory Committees for the occupational disciplines. There are two types of certificates recognized by the College: Certificates of Achievement and Skills Certificates.
Santa Rosa Junior College is committed to maintaining the academic rigor and relevance of its occupational curriculum. Each occupational program has an employer advisory committee to provide occupational outlook information and give input to the curriculum, ensuring that students are learning the skills needed by industry. Whether the student is exploring career choices following high school, considering a major career move, or seeking new skills for advancement, a wide variety of training options are available through these certificate programs.
The following certificates are available at Santa Rosa Junior College. This is an alphabetical listing of all currently active certificates. Please use the Advanced Search feature to locate certificates that have been inactivated or to refine your search by department, keyword, or number of units.
Certificates of Achievement:
Certificates of Achievement are programs of study consisting of 18 units or more that provide extensive preparation in the designated field. They are intended to certify that students who have successfully completed the program are prepared to enter the careers associated with their chosen certificate. They usually take at least one to two years to complete. In addition to local approval, these programs must also be endorsed by the Bay Area Occupational Planning Committee and receive approval from the California Community College Chancellor's Office. Prior to the 2008-2009 Catalog, Certificates of Achievement were designated as Career Certificates.
Skills Certificates:
In addition to Certificate of Achievement programs of study, the College also offers many programs resulting in the award of Skills Certificates. These certificates are under 18 units, and, while the local development and approval process is rigorous, they do not require approval by the state Chancellor's Office. These certificates are designed to provide the student with a brief but intense course of study in a particular area, so that he or she may develop specific skills or prepare for an entry-level position in the field. Successful completion of these programs also may certify that students are prepared with a particular set of skills, such as the job entry skills leading to a full Certificate of Achievement program, or skills to upgrade or advance in an existing career. These programs often provide advancement on a "career ladder," and are therefore of shorter duration and narrower in scope than the Certificate of Achievement programs to which they may lead. Prior to the 2006-2007 Catalog, Skills Certificates were designated as Completion Certificates or Competency Certificates. Prior to the 2008-2009 Catalog, Skills Certificates were designated as Achievement Certificates.
Certificate Coursework and Prerequisites/Advisories:
Courses in a certificate program may have prerequisites or advisories; that is, courses that must or should be completed before taking that course. Please check for prerequisites or advisories by clicking on the courses in the Program Requirements section of the certificate.
In addition, the reading and writing or mathematics level required for beginning certificate coursework and/or successful completion varies from program to program. Courses in a program may have a specific level of English or Math as either a prerequisite or recommendation (click on the course to find out more). Placement tests to help you determine you English or Math level are free and offered on a regular basis by the Assessment Office (527-4661).
If an English or Math course is a prerequisite to a course, you can seek to meet the prerequisite by:
If an English or Math course is recommended, it is considered an advisory, not a requirement. Advisories give an accurate indication of the skill level needed to do well in the program. Take these advisories seriously!
Certificate Requirements and Previous Coursework or Experience:
If you believe that you have already fulfilled a certificate requirement or course prerequisite through previous coursework or prior experience, please contact the program coordinator or a counselor for assistance.
The Certificate of Achievement and the Major (degree program):
Degree programs are often available for many occupational fields that also have a Certificate of Achievement program. Students in occupational programs are strongly encouraged to obtain an Associate Degree. This can be done by selecting a major related to the certificate program, or by pursuing a more general major, such as Humanities, Natural Sciences, Social and Behavioral Sciences, or University Transfer. To be awarded an Associate Degree, a student must complete the requirements of the major, as well as other degree requirements.
A student who has completed a certificate program may be awarded the Associate Degree in a later semester providing all major and degree requirements are met.
The Certificate of Achievement and Selection Processes:
Some programs - particularly in the Health Sciences or Public Safety fields - may have a selection process for entering students. Please contact the department or a counselor for information about the selection process for any such program.
Coursework Requirements and the Certificate:
No course may be used more than once to fulfill a requirement in the certificate. Generally stated, a requirement in a certificate is:
Term Effective and the Certificate:
The requirements for a certificate are effective beginning the semester shown for each certificate. Students who began working on the approved certificate before the effective semester may not be affected by the changes because they have catalog rights. Students should consult with the program contact person, department chair, or a counselor to determine their eligibility to complete the certificate under previous requirements.
Catalog Rights:
Requirements for a certificate are determined according to the catalog in effect at the time of initial enrollment. In order to maintain catalog rights, a student must be in continuous enrollment; that is, enrollment in at least one credit course during each successive academic year.
For the purpose of catalog rights, the academic year begins each fall and ends with the subsequent summer session. When a break in enrollment occurs, certificate requirements are determined according to the catalog in effect when continuous enrollment is resumed.

I know it sounds crazy, but all of a sudden the two hives went mid-summer crazy today -- same day as the biggest solar storm in 12 years! They don't seem to be absconding, just manic.
I went to pump gas, and I got a kick out of the 'tourists' dodging and ducking a big swarm of Carnelians in the trees near the pumps! They weren't my girls, and my heart went out to the beekeeper whose hive decided to move to the gas station this morning.
Could it be true? Solar storms wake up the winter hives?
Internet suggests it's possible. You know how the bees can be! Have you all seen this today? Do I have to worry that tomorrow morning I might be an orphan?

Troopers describe rescue of trucker from creek after tractor-trailer crashes in Ridgefield [video]
RIDGEFIELD — Three state troopers jumped into Overpeck Creek fully clothed to save a tractor-trailer driver's life after his truck crashed on the New Jersey Turnpike on Tuesday morning.
Divers could have taken more than an hour to arrive, authorities said, but the troopers' quick actions meant Lawrence Scherf was flown to Hackensack University Medical Center in half that time.
Scherf, 66, of Vails Gate, N.Y., was later moved to St. Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston, where he was listed in critical condition.

"You don't really think, you just react," said Trooper Mohamed Hussein, 31, of Union, at a news conference at the Newark barracks later Tuesday. "We'll get dressed and do it again."
The call came just after 5:30 a.m., and the troopers found part of the tractor-trailer, including the cab, in flames and Scherf treading water on his back in the creek near Route 80. The trailer was dangling from an overpass near milepost 117, while the burned-out cab sat in the creek.
"We knew it was going to be a rescue situation," said Trooper Jason Serrano, 31, of Paterson.
While police don't know whether the driver was ejected from the cab or got out on his own, his being out of the rig made the rescue possible.
"That was his only chance," Hussein said. "If he would have stayed inside the cab he would have burned to death."
Hussein threw in a life preserver, and the troopers dropped their leather utility belts and jumped into water up to their necks.
"We're trained to take a situation and be the calm head," he said.
Trooper Luis Cardenas, 29, of Parsippany kept Scherf talking to keep his mind off the injuries, which included burns on 60 to 70 percent of his body and cuts, including a serious one on his right leg.
"We let him know that we were going to get him out," Cardenas said.
They treaded water and held each other up, with Cardenas holding onto the driver's shirt, until the Ridgefield Park Fire Department's rescue bucket pulled Scherf out of the creek about 15 minutes later. The Fire Department also put out the truck fire.
"The whole operation went very well between the Fire Department and the state police," Ridgefield Park Fire Chief Peter Arciuolo said. "It was teamwork."
The troopers were examined at Holy Name Medical Center in Teaneck for exposure to the driver's blood, a routine precaution, and the creek's waters.
"The water's filled with unknown contaminants in that area," Serrano said.
"We are very grateful for the efforts of the N.J. State Troopers who rescued our driver from Overpeck Creek," the transportation company said in a statement. "The safety of our employees and the members of communities in which we work is always our top priority."
Despite water rescue training in the academy, there's nothing to prepare troopers for situations like these, their superiors said.
"Every day these guys go out, it's a challenge," acting Lt. Michael Dulin said. "You hope it's in them. They went above and beyond. Without hesitation, they reacted."

I think I asked this question a few weeks ago, but I am not able to find the thread and responses. Does anyone know a way that I can keep track of a thread that was started by me, instead of having to scroll through all threads and forums looking for the green dot?
Now my question. I am going to start a few hives with mediums as the hive bodies. When I install the 3 pound package into the hive should I only use 1 medium or should I start out right away with stacking 2 mediums? I will be using medium frames from honey supers from last season in order to give them a jump on drawing out comb this season. Thanks, juzzerbee

Florence inmate caught
FLORENCE, Colo. - An inmate who walked out of a minimum security prison camp in Florence was caught Thursday.
The Fremont County Sheriff's office said 46-year-old Ronnie Rainey was captured, but it did not have any details on how or where he was caught at this time.
Rainey was reported missing from the camp on October 18. A Justice Department spokesperson said Rainey was working outside the camp and walked away.
Rainey is serving a 10-year-sentence for mail fraud. He was convicted three years ago for embezzling money from several investors in North Carolina.

The amount paid out to young New Zealanders reaping the benefits of KiwiSaver's first-home subsidy has tripled in the past year as more people become eligible.
But as Auckland house prices hit a record median high of $500,000, new buyers may find it difficult to qualify for the scheme which includes a $400,000 cap in the city on the maximum house price.
Figures supplied to the Herald from Housing NZ, which administers the subsidy, showed the amount paid out this past year, $8.3 million, has tripled on the first year, when $2.8 million was paid out.
A total of 861 applications were approved in Auckland since the subsidies became available in July 2010.
There were 323 approvals in Christchurch and Hamilton had more first-home buyers claiming the subsidy than Wellington - 177 compared with 120.
Aucklander Caroline Lim, 37, received a $3000 boost with the subsidy to buy her first home this year with partner Brent Foster, 52.
That money, combined with $8000 Ms Lim had contributed to KiwiSaver herself, $4000 her employer put up and the couple's combined savings helped towards the 15 per cent deposit for their $388,000 apartment in Mt Eden.
They borrowed about $333,000 for the mortgage but since have learned that the building, Tawari Mews, may have to be knocked down for Auck-land's proposed rail loop.
Ms Lim, a community engagement adviser, was surprised to learn she was entitled to so much from KiwiSaver.
"Every little thing helps at the end of the day," she said. "Of course you always want more but it's great to have the option to use the scheme."
Her partner was not eligible for the subsidy, having bought and sold homes previously.
Financial commentator Bernard Hickey said Auckland was in the middle of a housing shortage and the younger generation felt locked out of the market.
He said the city leaders needed to allow developers to build on the city's fringe.
"Hamilton is a good example of a place that has allowed development on the fringes," Mr Hickey said.
"There's been a huge number of houses built in Hamilton over the last five to 10 years ... and that's because they allow their city to grow. They didn't put in place a tough metropolitan limit as we've seen in Auckland."
New Zealanders may have to start thinking about buying apartments rather than homes with backyards, Mr Hickey said.
"Most people want, when they have families, to live in a proper house. That may be something that New Zealanders need to get over."
New Zealanders became eligible for KiwiSaver's first-home subsidy scheme in July 2010.
* First-time buyers can receive $1000 for each year they have contributed to KiwiSaver, up to a maximum of $5000 for five years.
* Couples buying a house together can receive a combined subsidy of up to $10,000 but must not earn more than $100,000 combined.
* They have to have contributed at least 2 per cent of their income to a KiwiSaver scheme, or a complying superannuation scheme, for at least three years, and they must be planning to live in the house for at least six months a year.
* The price of the home must be less than $400,000 in Auckland city, Wellington city, Selwyn District and Queenstown Lakes District, and $300,000 in other areas.

Lady Gaga had surgery on Wednesday to fix the labral tear in her right hip, and she praised her loyal fans for helping her cope with the fear she felt about the surgery. On her Little Monsters website, Gaga wrote that her fans "gave me a lot of strength." She added, "Everything happened so fast, but when it came time to face it I reflected on the many stories and experiences you've shared with me about your lives. Meeting you backstage, reading your letters, watching you communicate with fans from around the globe to form a community that supports one another -- You have completely blown my mind... sometimes you are so brave that it terrifies me. I wonder how it's even possible. So I thought to myself, 'I'm alive, I'm living my dream, and this is just a bump in the road.' I'm grateful because this is temporary, and for some it is not. You have changed my life. I love you and am proud to be a part of your lives. If you can do it, I can do it too, and if we stick together we can get through anything."
In a new interview with Ryan Seacrest, Mariah Carey says she wants to release her next album "ASAP," adding that she's "really working hard" while also appearing as an American Idol judge. Carey just released a new single, "Almost Home," from the upcoming film Oz: The Great And Powerful.David Bowie guitarist Gerry Leonard says the odds are "50-50" on whether Bowie will do a tour to promote his new album, The Next Day, which drops on March 12. "A couple of times, when we played back one of the more kick-ass tunes from the new record, he'd be like, 'This would be great live!' Of course, everyone was like, 'What? Did he just say that?' But other times he'd just roll his eyes if someone brought up playing live," Leonard told Rolling Stone. "If he gets the bug in him to do it, it'll happen. His voice is sounding great and he's looking great, too. He could totally do it. You never know with David, though. I feel he might want to make another record before he plays shows. He's being really prolific right nowTrent Reznor's How to Destroy Angels have mapped out a string of tour dates for April, in addition to their already-confirmed appearance at both weekends of the Coachella festival. The band also has scheduled dates in cities such as Las Vegas, Denver, Chicago, Toronto and Boston, with the final date being on April 29 in New York. Reznor also hinted on Twitter that more band activity may be coming when he wrote: "Big news coming next week (for real this time)."
More musical performers have been added to this Sunday's Academy Awards broadcast. Jennifer Hudson will join fellow past Oscar winners Russell Crowe and Catherine Zeta-Jones in a tribute to movie musicals, while Oscar host Seth McFarlane will duet with actress/singer Kristin Chenoweth to close out the show.

Just got a new bucket,and was wondering if a soap,and water bath would remove it completely?? I gotta get to work on this baby ;)
I trimmed and sanded mine, then washed it with water and dish detergent, dried it, then started painting.
Why would you want to remove the gelcoat?
There is no need to, the Gel coat is the base for your paint. Just give it a good soapy bath to remove any mold release or other contaminates, sand, prime, paint....
Yep. The gelcoat makes it smoooooooooth. :)
I think you might be getting your terms mixed up. Gel coat is the top layer (sometimes resin)that is layed down to catch all the knooks, crannies and basically detail that otherwise fiberglass would never pick up do to weaving restraints.
Perhaps you are referring to mold release or something else gooey that got on there ?
OR, maybe you wanted to increase the flare of your helmet by removing the gelcoat, overall thinning the areas, stretching it and then going back with the FG to reinforce ?
either way, I am mixed up !
If it feels sticky or tacky, it may have been run from a silicone mold. The surface that was in contact with the silicone, doesn't cure properly, and may need to be washed away. If this is the case, wash with acetone, continuously changing rags, until no more of the color comes off. Only improperly cured gelcoat will be removed. When the properly cured gelcoat is exposed, acetone will not desolve it, and the rags will will no longer be removing any material. Hope this helps, and good luck on your helmet :D
Yeah,definitely got my terms mixed up guys :lol I meant the sticky residue,but was looking for a fancy term,.....guess I should've just said "sticky stuff",....but then you guys might think I love my new helmet TOOOO much :lol :lol :lol :lol
Last night I used some rub-n-buff on my armor for the first time, it looked great! I was in the other room with the door closed (so my 10 month old wouldn't inhale the stuff) SO then I told my wife that I had to wash my hands because they were covered in sticky goo she told me "Are you sure you are working on your armor in there?" :lol
Thanks for the help everyone. I made the error of thinking the mold residue that was oily and sticky was the gelcoat. I just washed my helmet really well with soap & water and it was off.

Deschutes Democrats excited by Obama's performance
Nearly 70 attended debate watch party
BEND, Ore. - The Deschutes Democrats gathered once again Tuesday night to watch the second presidential debate. Nearly 70 people filled the Broken Top Bottle Shop on the west side of Bend to watch President Obama and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney debate the issues.
They were hoping to see their candidate, Barack Obama, come out fired up after what some called a not-so-stellar performance in the first debate.
"Once again, he tried to exercise diplomacy and common respect and operate on the same, level playing field," said Tracie, a registered Democrat.
She says the president was dealt a very heavy hand when he took office nearly four years ago. As for the debate, she says the president came prepared and was consistent in his message, but respectful at the same time.
"Tonight, he showed to me that tenacity that he has," said Tracie. "He ultimately has respect. He does not subject himself to mudslinging."
John Mundy agreed the president did a very good job. He says when the topic of creating jobs came up, Obama had the upper hand.
"If you believe in lowering unemployment and creating jobs for Americans, do you really want to vote for someone for president who has made a career out of taking those jobs away from Americans?" said Mundy.
Both agreed thepPresident built momentum and they see him carrying it through the final debate and into the election in November.

When you combine two hives how long will it take for them to eat thru the paper? How long should I wait before checking them?
When you combine two hives how long will it take for them to eat thru the paper? How long should I wait before checking them?
Assuming here that you made a few small slits in the paper,it doesn't take long.I check mine after about three days and remove the remaining paper.That said,making a simple screen board from plywood and window screen works better.
If you combine in the afternoon with one sheet of newspaper between the bees, the bees will have chewed through by the next morning. If you are good at finding queens check anytime you wish, if you have trouble seeing queens wait a week and look for young larvae.
I wonder where that "Paper Divide" notion came from? It does nothing.....
"If nominated, I will not run; if elected, I will not serve."
Somewhere between an hour and a week... sometimes a weak hive doesn't get very motivated...
Michael Bush bushfarms.com/bees.htm "Everything works if you let it." ThePracticalBeekeeper.com 42y 40h 39yTF
I did it last Friday with a very weak hive that had a queen, no capped brood other than drones, and barely enough bees to cover two frames. The hive next to it was booming; packed full of bees and four full shallow supers of honey. I took an empty super off the weak hive, and took a full super off the strong hive and reversed them, bees and all. Gimme an hour, and I'll go open them up and post a photo of their progress.
Can't get the attachments box to load, so no photo. Looks like they've chewed a oval-shaped hole and exposed three frames. I called it good and removed the remaining newspaper.
Thanks for the information

Anybody ever try it? I am going to try my hand at queen rearing this summer. I don't really want to mess with my overwintered Langs much so they can produce me a nice crop of honey. So I was thinking of using my Warre for queen rearing. My thought is that the Cloake board method should transfer over to a Warre as long as you have a box that you can somewhat inspect. I have half frames, which keeps things workable. All I'd have to do is take one of my half frames and run a bottom bar across it and I could rear enough queens for my small scale purposes.
The process would be similar to that of Lang hives. Get a box full of brood. Smoke the bees down and out of the box. Put above a queen excluder. It'd probably be safe to say that the queen is no longer in that box. You could always come back in a few days to be certain. The bees will most likely be starting cups/cells in that upper box. Do all of the manipulations with the entrance and put a piece of cardboard over the excluder, graft, harvest cells, combine back (really generalizing the process, but this really isn't a lecture on how to use a cloake board system).
I know that it's not really what the die hard Warreors would do, but it takes all kinds to make the world go round. I enjoy my Warre Hives, but my Langs seem to out produce them. I would still love to tinker with my Warres, and maybe this is one way to do it.

Be[a]st Remixes (Snoop, M.I.A., Gaga, etc...)
Much like the last Be[a]st Remixes installment, it's come to that time when the inbox needs a proper sorting out and this is the perfect way to go about doing so.
First up, our pals The Fur tackle Snoop Dogg and Cudi's That Tree. Highly listenable, even more-so than the original, in my honest opinion.
mp3: Snoop Dogg and Kid Cudi - That Tree (The Fur Remix)
The Sound of Arrows haven;t been in hiding. No, they've simply been in the lab working on this mix of Lady Gaga's Alejandro. Look past her lackluster performance of the song on last night's American Idol and simply groove out to this dreamy dish.
mp3: Lady Gaga - Alejandro (The Sound of Arrows Remix)
Mad Decent homeboy, High Contrast, eats up M.I.A.'s Born Free and spits out a drummier surfed out mix of the song. Nice option to the original.
mp3: M.I.A. - Born Free (High Contrast Remix)
Two neato drops on Penguin Prison tracks for you. 1-O.A.K. handles Something I'm Not, while Shook jumps on The Worse it Gets. Both worthy of your time and your ears.
