In this campaign season of railing against government and the status quo, do you actually know much about all the different things your government does? I don't mean to insult readers by suggesting you don't know, for example, how much public toll money it will cost to repair the Maine Turnpike bridges over Gorham Road and the I-295 southbound exit ($1 million).
Certainly, some of that is the fault of media outlets, which don't always do a great job of investigating government actions and uncovering the hidden truths about what those who serve us are really up to — whether good, bad, or (as seems to be most often the case) indifferent.
But this is not a call to action directed at media outlets — they already hear enough of that, and if they're slacking off the digging, they know it. Quite frankly, ensuring government openness, transparency, and effectiveness is not solely up to the media: It's up to you.
You are the most effective person for the job. Contrary to popular belief, the media have no special rights to public information — what's available to reporters is no more or less than what's available to everybody else. And government officials don't exactly like media scrutiny all that much: whenever lawmakers and policymakers are considering becoming more open or (as is much more often the case) more secretive, the most persuasive arguments for transparency are not that the media will be shut out, but that the people will be.
Which is why it behooves you not just to rely on media outlets to get you the information you need, but to go out and get it yourself. Right now, all over Maine and across the country, public officials are going about their business without worrying that anyone's watching — because often, nobody is. Whether you object to a government program or support it (or hate some and like others), go learn more about it, from the source. Keeping government honest is everyone's business.
Go exercise your right — think about something that matters to you, contact the relevant public agency, and ask for documents on some aspect of the issue. (If you're stuck, an agency's annual budget is always a good place to get ideas of what else you might want to learn about.)
Air quality, water quality, bridge maintenance, reports of infectious diseases, pollutant and toxin releases, tractor-trailer accident data, road-building plans, building- and business-inspection records, and all kinds of other information are open to the public — that means you.
For some tips, check out the Portland Phoenix's blog, thePhoenix.com/AboutTown, where you can find a link to a PDF of a handout from a Society of Professional Journalists freedom-of-information session I helped organize in Portland last week (I'm the president of the Maine SPJ chapter). If you run into problems, there are some strategies in the handout; SPJ can help, as can the Maine Freedom of Information Coalition, and — especially when it comes to government spending, the Maine Heritage Policy Center's site at maineopengov.org.

Then I crossed the road from the Waffle Shop and walk into the Ford Theatre to hear about the night Abraham Lincoln died, amazing story and good to see how and where he was killed, then I went to The Spy Museum and did the tour for US$15, which I really enjoyed but I didn't think it was worth the price, but good to see.
Then walked around town had some lunch and went to Chinatown and looked around and because it was raining I went to the movie The Guardian at 1.05pm and it was amazing movie and so real and down to earth
After the Muesum I chilled out at this local burger bar for dinner and then walk around the National Mall starting with the Capital Building and getting some night pictures of all the sites of Washington DC. It was amazing night not to cold and not to hot, and I got back to the Hostel at 9.00pm packed my bag and went straight to bed.

[quote user="bklyn1028"][quote user="BurnerNYG"][quote user="MikeIsaGiant"][quote user="RagTime Blue"][quote user="MikeIsaGiant"]Yeah, I didn't really understand the two zombies on her sides that much besides it being accessories. But I even find that silly....[/quote]
nhSomeone said it's to hide her scent from other walkers.*
I still want to know how they don't attack her.* Even with no arms, they're capable of biting her.* But I'm sure it's explained next season.*
My fave show!!
[/quote] Good point; I was thinking about that but then wondered the same question you were just asking. They were chains right? How is it possible that they didn't get to her.. LOL[/quote]From my understanding, she cut their jaws off. I also read somewhere that the 2 zombies are her boyfriend and his friend. Like you guys said though... they still got legs so why don't they constantly try to attack her? Who knows but I'm definitely excited for season 3.[/quote] Maybe they'll gum her to death...lol I liked the ending, but Lori turned into a *****, pissed me off. When Rick told her he wacked Shane, she was pissed. I guess Shane had the bigger...........rifle. Anyway she aggravated me, threw my whole concept of her off. I hope she gets wacked next season. I mean she tells Rick to be careful, Shane is losing his mind and then she turns on her husband. And Rick....seems Shane's spirt possessed him at the end. Great show![/quote] Nah,* I thought the same thing, but when i watched the show again, she got peeved off at Rick when he told her that CARL put Shane down...* I was thinking she was a tool for telling rick that shane was loosing his mind and* then when Rick tells her that he killed shane, she gets all p-issy, but it was right when he told her that CARL put down Shane, that she got real pi-ssy..

*The thing i really loved was how HERSCHEL becomes more and more like his charechter in the comics, which is a hard nosed, kick zombie rear, and not fear death at all, dude...* We actually watched his charechter materialize into that from a nieve,* living in the old world, dude...

I also loved how RICK finally laid down the law at the end of the show to all the idiots of the camp who kept on not realizing how good rick was doing for the group, and that its basically impossible to perdict what or when walkers are gonna attack, but hes done as good as he can, which is there best option...** I also loved how* Daryl and Herschel both had his back.. I really can't stand that scum bag Carol..* Ricks done more for her and her family then anyone, and she has the balls to continue to treat Rick like she does and challenge his authority and think others could do better?** I love how Daryl didn't give into her, and basically told her to shut up...lol
[/quote]Herschel is a GREAT character, I havent read the comics but Im a huge fan of how he's evolved so far and the direction he's heading
Daryl is still the best character on the show
I really hope Laurie gets killed, she's such a beach, LOL.* She's horribly selfish and does nothing but cause problems

Im very newbie and making a 2d spaceship game, similar to Stargunner.
I have target(enemies) coming from right side of screen and heading left, where my ship is at.
My targets are circles who randomly chooses Y coords from 0, 640.
The thing is. When one of my targets hit the upper "wall" i want them to bounce down.
And my problem is that i cant modify the value of Points. What can i do, is it even possible to modify Points values?
I have my properties in GameItem class.
"Cannot modify the return value of 'SpaceAttack.GameItem.Position' because it is not a variable"
if (target.Position.Y < 0) { target.Position = new Point(this.target.Position.X, this.target.Position.Y = 0); target.Velocity = new Point(this.target.Velocity.X, this.target.Velocity.Y *= -1); }

Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2
Nintendo 3DS/DS
Rated E
Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version introduced fans to the Pokémon world's Unova region. With Black Version 2 and White Version 2, players can see how Unova has changed two years later and explore it further—and of course, collect more Pokémon for battles. It's the first time in the core Pokémon game series that a storyline has continued from one game to another.
The Pokémon World Tournament lets players battle Gym Leaders from pervious Pokémon games. Eagle-eyed fans will spot familiar Pokémon and Gym Leaders, not only from the previous Black and White, but from other regions introduced in previous core series games. TFK spoke to Seth McMahill, who hasworked on Pokémon games for Nintendo for over 12 years. "The idea is over the last two years, new Pokemon have migrated in," McMahill told TFK. "For new players, it will just be a new Pokemon that they've encountered. For old classic players like me, when I ran into one of my favorites, Mareep—an electric sheep—I just squealed because Mareep was first introduced in Gold Version and Silver Version back on the Game Boy Color." McMahill calls Black Version 2 and White Version 2 "the epitome of what a Pokémon adventure is right now." ($34.99)
Also available for Nintendo 3DS is New Super Mario Bros. 2 ($29.99). Click here to watch an interview with Olympic gold medalist Gabby Douglas. The gymnast is helping Nintendo promote the game.

Making Waves in Sunny San Clemente
Holiday Inn San Clemente (Camp Pendleton) • San Clemente, CA
Escape Kit
- A Two-Night Stay for Two in a Standard Ocean-View Room ($164)
- Or, a Two-Night Stay for Two in a Jacuzzi Suite ($214)
- Bottle of Champagne Upon Arrival
The Destination
Known as much for its stoked-on-life surf scene as it is for being home to the country's largest Marine Corps base, San Clemente, in southern Orange County, might seem paradoxical. But the city's approximately 65,000 residents, sporting everything from dreadlocks to crew cuts, get along swimmingly here. And on these sun-soaked, palm-lined shores, why wouldn't they?
The Digs
Within walking distance of the city's best beaches, boutiques, and restaurants is the Holiday Inn San Clemente (Camp Pendleton). The name of the game here is free: Internet, parking, coffee, and a morning newspaper all come compliments of the hotel. Before you take a dip in the outdoor pool, check in to your room. Oceanside rooms are appointed with one king or two queen-size beds and a 32-inch flat-screen TV, and most also come with a private balcony, where you can soak up the sea breeze and catch one of those inimitable Southern California sunsets. Jacuzzi Suites are a bit larger and feature the same amenities, plus a relaxing soaker tub.
The Diversions
• Start your day with two made-to-order eggs, bacon or sausage, potatoes, and toast for only $2.95 at the onsite Maxim Restaurant
• Watch the surfers catch waves at Trestles Beach
• Dine on the freshest seafood around at Fisherman's Restaurant & Bar
• Explore the local environment with a whale-watching or fishing tour at Dana Point Harbor
"This Holiday Inn is in a totally excellent position, and has easy access to all local amenities, shops, transport, restaurants, and above all, the beautiful blue ocean. Can't wait to visit again."-- TripAdvisor

Reviews of this property
It was a very nice appartment, it was even better than we expected!
Everything was clean, the beds were nice, it smelled good... And all this for a good price.
We cooked our own food. No problems at all!
The location is great, and Maria is a very nice lady.
Lisbon is a beautiful city, certainly worth visiting!
We would recommend this appartment! :)
Wonderfully located appartment. Can't get better place right in the city center of Lisbon, close to all key places. Great hosting by the Neighbor Maria. Unfortunately there was some heavy construction happening in the building, but hope it is done now. One watchout - location comes with quite some noise from the street, but this is the price you pay for a superb location!
We spent three days in Lisbon great. The apartment is very clean and is very bright and beautiful, is exactly what appears in the photos. Mrs. Maria das ers has served us well. Absolutely no!
Hemos pasado 3 días geniales en Lisboa. El apartamento está muy limpio y es muy luminoso y bonito, es exactamente lo que aparece en las fotos. La señora Maria das dores nos ha atendido muy bien. Todo perfecto!!!!
We have been on the floor 5 people, is very large and comfortable, just what we wanted. The perfect situation to move around the center of Lisbon and because you all transports available under the house, including the tram 28 to give you a tour of the city for an hour of travel. The main streets of downtown Lisbon really have them, also the lifts to move the high neighborhood without climbing hills or stairs. We went with my mother, and more so the less effort we appreciated. The house is on the fourth floor with elevator, had all the amenities for sleep, shower, eat and rest, which is what we did there. Very clean and comfortable, good beds. The master bath is large with two sinks and a large mirror and small bathroom is appreciated, but perhaps would be missing have two bathrooms, so it would be ten!
I liked it, the next visit will try to rent again.
Hemos estado en el piso 5 personas, es muy grande y cómodo, justo lo que buscábamos. La situación perfecta para moverte por el centro de Lisboa y más porque tienes todos los transportes disponibles debajo de la casa, incluido el tranvía 28 para darte una vuelta por la ciudad durante una hora de recorrido. Las calles principales del centro de Lisboa las tienes al lado, también los elevadores para moverte al barrio alto sin subir cuestas, ni escaleras. Íbamos con mi madre, ya mayor, así que se agradece el menor esfuerzo. La casa, está en un cuarto piso y con ascensor, tenía todas las comodidades para dormir, ducharse, desayunar y descansar, que fue lo que hicimos allí. Muy limpia y acogedora, buenas camas. El baño principal es grande, con dos lavabos y un gran espejo y baño pequeño se agradece, aunque quizá le faltaría tener dos baños completos, así sería de diez!
Me ha gustado mucho, la próxima visita intentaré alquilarla de nuevo.
Fine bright and spacious apartment. We have enjoyed four days. It is centrally located in a lively district, a convenient base for exploring Lisbon.
Fijn licht en ruim appartement. Wij hebben hier vier dagen erg genoten. Het is centraal gelegen in een levendige wijk, een gemakkelijk uitgangspunt om Lissabon te verkennen.
Apartment in the heart of Lisbon. Very convenient for sightseeing. 6 beds comfortable. An apartment charm! The host is extremely friendly and responsive.
Appartement au coeur de Lisbonne. Très pratique pour les visites. 6 couchages confortables. Un appartement au charme certain ! L'hôte est particulièrement sympathique et réactif.
Joao Paulo's House in Lisbon was LOVELY. It was like being home, i really enjoyed staying there. I travel a lot and i can sincerely tell that it's the most beautiful apartment i've ever been. Joao rulez :) Thanks a lot, Sofia from Italy
We have at the end of October 2012 the opportunity four adults. Apartment location in Lisbon's lovely central - walking distance to all the sights and shopping center. The apartment is working fine - however, there is little street noise. If we were to Lisbon again, we would like to live in the same place. Per Hjælmsø
Vi har ultimo oktober 2012 benyttet lejligheden 4 voksne personer. Lejlighedens placering i Lissabon er dejlig centralt - gå afstand til alle seværdigheder og shopping i centrum. Lejligheden fungerer fint - dog er der lidt gadestøj.
Hvis vi skulle til Lissabon igen, ville vi gerne bo samme sted.
Per Hjælmsø
Lovely apartment, equipped, clean, with very favorable position to visit the city and to all other movements in the country. Ideal for a holiday in Lisbon!
Appartamento delizioso, accessoriato, pulito, con posizione favorevolissima alla visita della città e ad ogni altro spostamento nel paese. Ideale per una vacanza a Lisbona!
The apartment is ideally located to discover the city and Joyeaux Lisbon. Entrenu well, nothing is missing for a pleasant stay with family or amis.Excellent home.

My 686 never seems to get that bad. What kind of ammo are you using?
Have you tried soaking it in bore cleaner? I usually soak mine in the bore cleaning gel for about 10 to 20 minutes before cleaning if it is really dirty. It usually works wonders on it and even gets off some of the real tough stuff.

Watching The View this morning the controversy whirred around reproductive parts, and what we, as parents, should be teaching our children to call them. The consensus: It just doesn't seem right to hear a little girl referring to her breasts. Boobies is much cuter. Because we're concerned about the cuteness of these body parts on a seven-year-old?
There's myriad ideologies that stop women from having a healthy relationship with their privates including: negative socialization, lack of education and exposure when young, stigma when admitting they masturbate, and the list goes on and on. Bottom line: until the average gal can have a positive relationship with her vulva, enjoying sex to the maximum will probably be out of her grasp.
For over a hundred years, sex researchers, feminists and pop culture have been enmeshed in an ongoing debate as to which is superior: the vaginal or clitoral orgasm. Regrettably, their high-brow ponderings have left the average gal in their wake wondering whether her orgasm is either real or even the best one.
The two major sexual problems that distress men are premature ejaculation (come too soon) and erectile dysfunction (can't get or keep it up). Premature ejaculation is a learned response and responds to treatment whereas erectile dysfunction can have physiological or psychological causes, or a combination of both. We attribute physiological reasons to some 80 percent of cases.

Aerosol cans of shellac, lacquer and polyurethane allow you to quickly apply a finish on small or complex projects that's free of brush marks. Learn the basic techniques that guarantee a good finish.
Spraying is fast and gives a smooth finish, but it also creates a fine mist of solvent and finish that drifts and settles on everything in sight and is dangerous to breathe. To avoid problems, work outdoors if possible. If you spray indoors, cover everything with plastic sheeting or drop cloths and wear a respirator fitted with organic vapor filters, especially if you're spraying lacquer. Also put an exhaust fan in the window. Read the label on the spray can for additional safety precautions.
It's hard to get even coverage if you start or stop spraying on the surface you're coating. The spatters that happen when you first push the button can blemish your work, and spray builds up in one spot if you don't move fast enough. An easy and foolproof way to avoid these problems is to start spraying before you reach the edge of the project, move across the project at an even pace, and stop spraying after you've gone past the far edge. This technique guarantees an even, spatter- free coat of finish across the entire surface.
It's natural to swing the spray can in an arc, but this results in uneven coverage. The finish will build up in the center and be light on the edges.
To get even coverage, overlap the spray about halfway onto the previously sprayed section. If you just overlap the edges, you'll get a narrow band of thicker finish where the two strips meet. Overlapping at least 50 percent solves this problem—you'll apply about the same amount of finish everywhere.
Focus on keeping the spray tip an equal distance from the surface as you move it along. At the same time, keep the can moving at a steady pace to get an even coat. The goal is to apply just enough finish to wet the surface without creating runs. Prevent runs by applying several thin coats rather than one or two thick coats. The finish may look blotchy after the first coat, but additional coats will produce a uniform finish.
If you've ever used spray cans to finish a large project, you know how sore your fingertip can get from pressing down on the spray tip. A spray-can trigger handle saves your finger and gives you better control of the spray. You'll find spray-can trigger handles at home centers and hardware stores.
Spraying a heavy coat of finish over a dark stain or over some oily exotic woods can ruin your project's appearance. The solvent in the finish can dissolve the stain or the color in the wood and cause it to bleed or get muddy looking. To avoid this, prime these types of projects with several thin mist coats before applying a thicker coat of finish. Apply a mist coat by raising the can higher than normal and moving the can faster than usual. This will reduce the amount of spray hitting the surface. Mist coats dry quicker than a full coat, so you can typically apply several mist coats with less-than-normal waiting time. Wait for the previous coat to dry to the touch before recoating.
Dark, oily woods or stains can bleed into lighter wood.
At $4-plus per aerosol can, it gets pretty spendy to build up a heavy, protective layer of finish on a large project. But you can still take advantage of the flawless finish provided by aerosol cans. Start by applying two coats of finish with a brush. Then carefully sand with 220-grit sandpaper and remove all dust before using spray cans for the final coat. If you don't know much about finishes, just make sure your liquid and spray finishes are the same type.
When you have a small project with many sides to spray, placing it on a turntable will speed up your job and make it easier to get good results. Instead of trying to move around the project as you spray, just give the turntable a little spin. You can build a turntable like this by mounting lazy Susan hardware to a scrap of particleboard or plywood, and then mounting a plywood or particleboard disc to the hardware. Lazy Susan hardware is available at hardware stores and home centers. Check the instructions before leaving the store so you can pick up any screws you'll need.

"It's deceptively simple, refreshingly unembellished, distilled, grounded in sensory experience, and absolutely direct. It's comforting for precisely the same reasons it's unsettling, like standing on the shore looking across a dark sea at a horizon you swear you could almost touch. " —Rain Taxi
"Poetic understatement, dry humor and a deep love for nature are obvious throughout her oeuvre…. The book is as lovely, as evocative as a film by Hayao Miyazaki." —Time Out New York
"Jansson's clear prose — capable of sentiment without being sentimental — contains multitudes. The Summer Book is bright but dense; it is slim enough to read in a day but holds a whole world between its covers." —Powell's Books
"Tove Jansson was a genius. This is a marvelous, beautiful, wise novel, which is also very funny." –Philip Pullman
"A wise, joyous book…it unfolds the knowledge and the beauty of the two lives it embraces–old wisdom and young discover, intertwining like vines." –Rex Reed
"The Summer Book manages to make you feel good as well as wise, without having to make too much effort…[it] says so much that we want to hear in such an accessible form, without ever really saying anything at all." –The Independent (London)

"Take a book in which there is no plot but bucketloads of positive feelings presented simply, and it will become a cult.

The Summer Book is in this mould: it manages to make you feel good as well as wise…" –Independent

Hittin' the Surf in Sunny San Clemente
The INN at Calafia Beach • San Clemente, CA
Escape Kit
- A Two-Night Stay for Two in One-Bedroom Accommodations ($119)
- Or, a Two-Night Stay for Up to Four in Two-Bedroom Accommodations ($145)
- Four-Hour Boogie Board Rental for Two
- Bottle of Wine
- $25 Dinner Credit for BeachFire or Iva Lee's
Known as much for its stoked-on-life surf scene as it is for being home to the country's largest Marine Corps base, San Clemente, in southern Orange County, might seem paradoxical. But the city's approximately 65,000 residents, sporting everything from dreadlocks to crew cuts, get along swimmingly here. And on these sun-soaked, palm-lined shores, why wouldn't they?
Jump in—the water's great!—with an Escape to The INN at Calafia Beach, an oh-so-retro surf motel just a ten-minute walk from the water. The old-school motor court-style property—perfect to meet new friends out by the fire pit in the courtyard—offers 16 guest rooms. Each features a personal refrigerator, complimentary Wi-Fi, cable, and parking for one car.
Grab your four-hour rentals for boogie boards and head for the 3,000-acre San Onofre State Beach, which comprises some of the most sought-after breaks on the West Coast, including the famed Trestles. With a sun-kissed glow and beachy hair, venture back to the inn and shower off in the courtyard, furnished with teak patio furniture, then slap some steaks on the gas grill. Post fuel-up, take a drive north on the Pacific Coast Highway, which offers some of California's most stunning bluff-top scenery as it wends through the coastal communities of Dana Point (a great spot to spy whales), San Juan Capistrano, and Laguna Beach.
The next evening, take your pick of one of three San Clemente restaurants: Iva Lee's (Southern and Creole cuisine plus live music) or BeachFire (both serving fresh, locally sourced seafood prepared with international twists). At day's end, unwind in front of your TV or take in the sunset, and kick back like Dick Nixon. The former president had a beach house in San Clemente in the late 1960s and '70s—but don't let that harsh your mellow in this peaceful beach town.
"Travelers who shun the throngs in favor of a low-key beach experience—the part of the OC coast that Hollywood doesn't base TV series on—should drive ten miles south of Dana Point on Pacific Coast Highway to San Clemente."-- Read Fodor's Review of San Clemente

Thank you Vis! Now I can quit looking.
Thank you Vis! Now I can quit looking.
The most damning evidence is the truth.
That which does not kill you, really really really hurts...
Gunco Member #21
That thing looks like an MG-42 had its way with a box of 9mm ammo!
The article has some interesting points - "completely unmarked prototype"
"likely intended for AFV (vehicle) support"
"use of a belt makes sense in the context of AFV support"
Gunco Member #10
The "original" Boltcutter Rivet Squeezers:
Project Pink - the Pink and Blue AK-74:
could a 5.45 ak gas action betuned to work reliably with 7.62 by 25 cart.
Someone needs to copy one of those & get it running.
I like the idea of using 7.62x25. Mainly due to the low cost of ammo, which is a major consideration when choosing a belt fed caliber.
If you built a belt fed 7.62x25 that DIDNT work, I dont see that there would be a major financial loss. Depending on your approach, most of the parts may still be useable in a 7.62x39 build (assuming it was AK based from the start). The remaining SPECIFIC 7.62 x25 parts (barrel, modified bolt, ???) could always be used on a AK caliber converstion. You would have to consider the time invested as 'experiance' and 'education'...
Does the 7.62x25 fit in any other links?
Cassini -
I haven't tried x25 in any other links. Anyone who has RPD "U" links on hand will instantly be able to see how perfect they'd work. The cartridge guide ON the feed tray has a lip to align/guide RPD links as they pass through. I ground that lip off, in my attempt to use DM1 links. But with DM1 belts, the cartridges are spaced a TINY bit too far, for the 'throw' of the belt-feed mech, to feed. It wasn't successful. But 7.62x39 feeds reliably even w/o that guide lip. So standard "U" belts WILL feed backwards. I don't like the idea of having to modify belts specifically for one single firearm
Mac or Uzi (recoil) springs would seem ideal; choice of lower (with a hammer spring weak enough to be cocked) would be critical. AR hammer spring might work. The BC extension would have to be very lightweight. The little 7.62x25 would have to cycle the BC AND feed mech, overcome an adequate recoil spring, and cock the hammer. The lucky part is how easily they push out of the links, so the recoil spring could be kept light, leaving alot of the inertia to cycle the feed mech
I believe a gas-assisted blowback would work. A removable-bolt caliber conversion is not complex, and a shorty BC/piston set-up would reduce weight. The most work intensive part is building a rcvr in which the BC can GLIDE. I would locate the FT on TOP of the front trunnion (instead of behind it) for a shorter feed path. I've fed x25 through mine and it DOES FEED & CHAMBER even with the long path. If 7.62x25 didn't work out, the front end could be replaced with 7.62x39, the ejector tip relocated futher aft (tip on my RPD'd TC build is TIG'd) to resume life as an RPD47
I'd like to see others refine the use of an RPD TC. Pirate was well underway, but hasn't posted any progress in awhile.
My biggest problem is finding shop time - it would require several days uninterrupted, to get everything juggled right. I think about this project alot, and with one week could know if it'd work
I have had no luck sourcing RPD topcovers. Are they available anywhere?

On April 6 I installed 15 packages with
Carniolan queens. I left them alone.
Weather was wonderful today so I decided
to remove the queen cages and see how things
where going. Hit 80 degrees F.
12 out of the 15 have nice dark queens running around, some even started to lay eggs. Two others I found the queens dead in the cage, very little of the candy eaten. Didn't seem right so I looked through the rest of the frames. Low and behold, I found small leather brown queens. Still small and not extended so I'm guessing they're still unmated.
The last one had an empty cage but no signs of a queen-eggs or a virgin running around.
Virgin queens in a package - I've heard of it
but never experienced it. What are the odds of this happening -twice with one delivery!
Call the broker and I'll be getting replacements tomorrow. It too cold up around here to expect them to mate.
Hope this isn't an indication of the year to come, already been through a tough winter.

text: "A balanced approach to the state budget" The Massachusetts Teachers Association and 1199SEIU United Healthcare Workers East began airing a radio ad May 11 calling for the state to raise revenues to avert further drastic cuts to vital public services, including education and health care. The ad, which will air regularly for more than a week on radio stations in Greater Boston, notes that the impact of the national recession on Massachusetts has been severe and that the state now faces a budget deficit of at least $3.5 billion. "State leaders face hard choices," the radio spot states. "They've already made deep spending cuts, tapped the rainy day fund, and used federal stimulus money. But it's not enough. Even deeper cuts are looming for local aid and essential public services. "But we can't cut everything. Even in this recession, we still need to educate our kids, provide health care, protect our homes, and make sure our roads and bridges are safe," the ad continues. "To do that, we need a balanced approach to the state budget -- one that includes new revenues to help preserve vital services and protect our economic future." MTA President Anne Wass said it is crucial for legislators to recognize the need to take action right away. "We need to continue to invest in public education and other services for our communities so that as the economy improves, the Commonwealth has a skilled work force to attract new companies and new investments," Wass said. "It is simply no longer possible for the state to fund a responsible budget without new revenues." "Massachusetts children and families are already facing reduced access to preventive and emergency health care due to drastic health service reductions and the economy," said Mike Fadel, executive vice president of 1199SEIU United Healthcare Workers East. "Such reductions are unsustainable and will only cost taxpayers and the state more in the long run if new revenues are not used to stabilize health care access and affordability in our state." The ad was produced by Will Robinson of The New Media Firm.

The act of jerking off in one's own hand while their girlfriend sleeps, then being careful not to wake her, rolling over and stright-arming her, plastering her right in the forhead as if she were a peice of airmail. The most common response is one of complete shock and awe, or just: "You've got to be fucking kidding me.
My girlfriend was being a real treat the other night, so I waited for her to fall asleep then gave her my personal stamp.

NAACP and Coleman family meet with police to talk about May 19 shooting
Coleman family says they want shooter behind bars
COLUMBIA, Mo. - The family of Brandon Coleman wants to know why the man who pulled the trigger on the 25-year-old on Ann Street last month is not behind bars.
The man who shot him claims it was in self defense.
It was estimated that over 100 people attended a public meeting Tuesday night set up by the NAACP and the Coleman family.
Lorenzo Lawson, a community member who attended the meeting, told ABC 17 News he believes an arrest should have been made the night Brandon Coleman was shot.
He also told ABC 17 News the shooter was a felon and should have been arrested for using a gun.
Police would not confirm the whether the shooter was a felon.
Others who left the meeting said it was very unproductive and that police would only say they're investigating the shooter's claims he fired in self defense.
But many community members said they think the shooter should be held in jail during the investigation.
"They're wanting detailed answers, which we can't provide right now," said Sgt. Joe Bernhard, with Columbia police.
But the Coleman family told ABC 17 News they weren't giving up.
"We'll see if they make an arrest and see what other actions we can take to see if we can get our arrest and get justice," said James Patrick, Coleman's cousin.

999 BOTTLES OF BEER Plus a few more at Nikki's.
I spend a lot of time in liquor stores (hey, it's in the job description). And, while prepping next week's spectacular Best issue (come to the Awards Show at Fête on 4.11 — there will be free samples of Revival's beers!), I spent way too much time thinking about what would constitute The Best Beer Store (if I had a beer for every time the word "Best" was said in the office the last coupla weeks, I could open my own bottle shop). Here's the list of the features that yield Retail Beer Bliss.
Most places are haphazard. And with the proliferation of new brands and releases, and the limits of shelf/cooler/walk-in space, that's understandable: "Squeeze this in over there." It's better to have a plan. Some stores group beers by geography: East Coast, West Coast, New England, Europe, etc. Nikki's and Wines & More, among others (though the latter needs to move the Widmer Brothers from the New England aisle to the West Coast). I'd suggest that stores emulate the Total Wine chain: they arrange six/four-packs alphabetically by brand, and rack singles/bombers by style across the aisle.
There are a lot of beers out there; about 150 breweries distribute their wares in Rhode Island (Massachusetts has about 250). If you want to peruse a Vast, Huge, Sprawling Array of Beer — perhaps a Confoundingly Astounding Beer Selection — head to Yankee Spirits or the superstore Julio's in semi-nearby Westborough, MA. But a well-chosen and varied selection at smaller stores is usually all you need (and doesn't hurt your brain). Be true to your local packies for go-to favorites, and save the beer immersion trips for the weekends.
There are new brands and releases every week. But too many stores make the new stuff difficult to find ("Squeeze this in over there"). Beer geeks know what's coming out (they've been haunting the forums on BeerAdvocate and RateBeer). Folks curious about craft offerings will be attracted by the word "NEW!" (it's Pavlovian). The better stores have a shelf or rack or table or area trumpeting their New Arrivals. There's something to be said about making it a treasure hunt to find the new stuff ("Hmm, that Founders I just read about should be around here somewhere . . ."), but getting new beer shouldn't devolve into a game of Where's Waldo?
Mix-a-six options are fantastic: you can sample new releases, explore unexplored styles, etc., without committing to a six-pack. Your best options for mixing are at Nikki's (they have it all), I.M. Gan, Wines & More (they have singles at the head of each geographical aisle), unlike the sprawling jumble that's found at most stores, High Spirits (lotsa great deals there), Bottles, People's Liquor Warehouse, and a new mix-a-sixer, Haxton's on West Shore Road in Warwick, which has a modest selection but earns kudos for having all of their singles in the cooler (last week they had singles of Green Flash's new Palate Wrecker, a delightful mega-hoppy 9.5% ABV double IPA, for $3.50 — quite a deal since it's priced at $15/four-pack at most stores).

I can see bees bringing pollen into my hives, but how do I know if a honey flow is on?
I don't think I can simply assume where there is pollen there is nectar. Or can I?
If I frequently go into my hives I can note cells being filled, but is there a way of observing from outside the hive that there is a flow on.
Keeping is a hobby, or at best avocation. Just noting variation in activity levels is going to be a marginal method.

Diablo DC Variable Speed Water Pumps
Diablo DC Variable Speed Water Pumps
The Diablo controllable Direct Current "DC" water pumps are the latest in variable speed flow technology and allows for refined control, enhanced performance and efficiency. The vast majority of circulation pumps available to hobbyist are alternating current "AC" pumps (the type of power that comes out of your wall outlet). Direct current pumps have several key advantages over traditional AC pumps. Most notably, you can control the rotational speed of the motor, thus electronically control water flow rates. DC pumps are also more efficient than AC pumps and produce less heat per volume of flow.
Refined Control
This controller allows users to select between six preset speeds indicated by six green LEDs. The controller also features a feed button. When pressed, the pump safely shuts down and automatically reactivates after 10 minutes. Press the feed button a second time to resume normal operation. Diablo DC pumps feature a true slow startup where the pump begins at zero RPM and ramps up to the full preset speed over a period of approximately 10 seconds.
The pump and controller are connected via a waterproof 3-conductor union. The detachable controller will allow for a simple waterproof union. The volute can rotate to change the pump's output orientation in 90 degree intervals, meaning users can output water vertically (up or down) as well as horizontally.
6 Controllable Speed Settings
Integrated Memory- Remembers its last setting after a power failure!
Convenient Feed Button
Efficient DC Current
Quiet Startup & Operation
Detachable Controller with Waterproof Union
True Slow Startup
For Fresh or Marine Applications
Two(2) years warranty on pump motor
One(1) year warranty on rotor
Max Flow: 1,450gph
Max Head: 10.5 ft.
Power Consumption: 50 watts at full speed
24V power supply (converts 100-240V 50/60Hz AC to DC)
Adapters for 3/4", 1" and 1 1/4" insert fittings (2 of each for input and output) with a pair of lock-down nuts and rubber gasket seals

Devils have four in regional semis
February 15, 2013
MONTROSE – Eagle Valley wrestling's big boys are coming through so far.
The Devils have four wrestlers into the semifinals of the Region 4 Wrestling Tournament Friday in Montrose, and they are the usual suspects.
Andy Armstrong, the top seed at 220, got a bye and then needed all of 58 seconds to dispatch Delta's Lino Ortiz. Armstrong will face Palisade's Armando Cabriales in the semifinals.
At 182, Ty LaFramboise is also the top seed. He got his bye and then took out Thompson Valley's David Eusea, 8-3. Rifle's Clayton Coombs is LaFramboise's opponent in the semis.
Joey Sanchez is rolling along at 195. He pinned Sierra's Seth DeAlba in 2:49, and then knocked off Delta's Kyle Collins, 4-1. Sanchez's semi should be a good one. He's the No. 3-seed in his bracket and taking on Falcon's Charlie Wallace, the No. 2.
Cole Nielsen is putting his opponents on the mat at 170 pounds. He knocked off Montrose's Royal Haulman in 55 seconds and scored a minor upset of Rifle's Antonio Galaviz with a pin in 3:39. Nielsen takes on Falcon's Justin Barron.
The semifinals, and, hopefully, finals are today (Saturday). Though the top-four wrestlers at each weight punch their ticket to state, Eagle Valley's quartet is not yet assured of a trip to Denver. Wrestlers who finish fourth and have not faced someone on the consolation side of the bracket must compete in a wrestle-back.
That said, Armstrong, LaFramboise, Sanchez and Nielsen are exactly where they want to be.
Eagle Valley's Jay Bullock (103), Chris Comroe (126), Rafael Gurule (132), Davey Madrid (145), Andrew Vigil (152), Devin Ward (160) and Xavier Mendoza (285) are all still alive on the consolation side of the bracket.
The Devils are fifth as a team out of 17 with 54 points behind Thompson Valley (111.5), Pueblo Centennial (86.5), Montrose (76) and Palisade (59).

I am a first year beekeeper in Central, MA with 1 hive in my backyard. I hived a package on 4/13/09 to a new hive with plastic foundation. So far they have been doing wonderfully, building up the frames as expected. A couple of weeks ago I added a honey super to give them more room. Regular inspections showed nothing amiss, no swarm cells, etc.
Then Thursday morning my son comes running to tell me the backyard is full of bees! It was, because my hive was swarming. I documented it on my bee blog:
I was worried because it looked like a lot of bees had left. Well, today I got a chance to inspect the hive. There still seemed to be quite a few bees left. I found no queen, but a lot of queen swarm cells (see http://stevensbees.blogspot.com/2009...n-6-27-09.html )
So the swarm occured before they had a new queen available.
The only thing I can think of regarding swarming was that we have had a spate of rain over the last 3 weeks, and the bees couldn't get out and forrage like they want to. Maybe they felt cramped and crowded and decided to swarm. I have a screened bottom board and the weather hasn't been hot, so I don't think heat was a factor (I've never seen them beard on the outside of the hive).
What's done is done, but it makes me sad all the same. Does anyone have any suggestions or comments for me?
Thanks - Steven

Experiments with trained barn owls reveal how their acute sense of hearing enables them to catch prey in the dark
Masakazu Konishi
In theory, a single pure tone should be hard for the owl to locate, because even two ears are insufficient to define a point in three dimensions. For example, there is not one but a family of points around the head where a tone can produce a given inequality in intensity between the ears. The relatively good location of some pure tones by the owls is perhaps due to head movements. The rustling noises of prey contain many frequencies, as mentioned earlier, and the reason why the owl can use them so effectively will be sought next. The results of the pure-tone tests should provide bases for useful predictions. It would also be possible to find out which components of the noises are used by the owl by systematically removing different parts. However, I decided to use a more systematic and controllable approach.
I constructed signals with a constant center frequency and different bandwidths (maximum frequency minus minimum frequency) to study the effects of bandwidths on the error of location. The signals were broadcast at a constant intensity of -12 decibels (re 0.0002 dynes per centimeter squared) at the perch and lasted until landing. For comparison with the noise signals, the errors of location were measured for a 7 kilohertz tone delivered at an intensity of 4 decibels (re 0.0002 dynes per centimeter squared). The noise signals were delivered at a lower intensity in order to demonstrate their superiority as location cues over the most effective puretone broadcast at a higher sound level.
Since the differences in the errors of location were small, they were compared by scoring and statistical procedures that were immune to the errors in estimating the owl's position. The distribution of strikes in Table 1 shows a general tendency for larger proportions of strikes to fall within the four-plate zone and its immediate vicinity with increasing bandwidths. Noises containing frequencies between 5.5 and 9.5 kilohertz were more accurately located than those involving other frequency ranges. A 4 kilohertz band noise centered around 7.5 kilohertz is sufficient for accurate location. Additional frequencies do not contribute to more accurate location.
The owl needs, therefore, only a small portion of the frequency spectrum in the prey's rustles. No wonder the owl can precisely locate small rodents that make wideband noises rich in frequencies in the range most suitable for sound location. It should be noted that 5.5–9.5 kilohertz is the range in which the barn owl is most sensitive, although a higher sensitivity itself does not contribute to more accurate location, as mentioned before.

"They're opening bids. But they're opening bids from three years ago," said Robert Bixby, executive director of the bipartisan Concord Coalition, which champions deficit reduction. "The real question is: Do they start a negotiation this year? It's not where they start, it's where they finish. So you can take both of these budgets with a big grain of salt."

Reviews of this property
Little but cozy apartment in quite neighborhood and close to metro station.
It's a little bit smal for 4 people but for one family (2 grown ups and 2 children) is OK.
There is place for 3 people to sleep at mezzanine but fourth has to sleep on the madrass on floor which is not that best solution in the cold nights.
Not that very bright as in the discription but we used the flat only to sleep, rest of the time we where out and sightseeing the beautiful Paris
great localization and very nice apartment - which was fully equipped. We have some problems wit keys at our arrival, but they were solved in 15minuts! The only minus is for lack of blankets - there were only 2 for 3 separate bads. I believe it is not a problem during hot summer, but it was 14 Celsius degree when we were there.
Are very disappointed .... why: Internet advertising is not really ... although the situation does, however, hit the apartment we were allocated the same as a single image with what we found - WARNED - something is worst verarsche. In addition, this apartment we were allocated was eckeleregend dirty and in a state I do not want to recommend. No thanks - never again
Sind sehr enttäuscht....warum: die Internetwerbung ist so nicht richtig...zwar stimmt die Lage jedoch traf das uns zugewiesene Apartment mit keinen einzigen Bild überein mit dem was wir vorfanden - PFUI - sowas ist übelste verarsche.
Zudem war dieses uns zugewiesene Apartment eckeleregend verdreckt und in einen Zustand den ich nicht weiterempfehlen möchte.
Nein danke - nie wieder
The location and amenities of the home are very good. Unfortunately, she was not clean. But a vacuum cleaner was available so we could make yourself clean. We felt very comfortable and would rent the apartment again.
Die Lage und die Ausstattung der Wohnung sind sehr gut. Leider war sie nicht sauber. Aber ein Staubsauger war vorhanden und so konnten wir selber sauber machen. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und würden die Wohnung wieder mieten.
Reviews for this host's other properties
I went here in oktober 2012 and the beds were not very good. The appartment was not clean and the shower had a lot of mold. I told the host about the mold, but it seems like he does not care. Still mold problems, even 2 years later.
I cannot recommend this appartment.
great location, just a bit cleaner could be
super gelegen, könnte nur ein bisschen sauberer sein
Small for 4 people, and that we went with two girls. Upon arrival we found that there were only sheets and towels for 2. We had to call the agency to fix it, the owner is an agency. They were brought up that afternoon.
The floor was dirty and worn, with mold in the corners of the shower, cobwebs on the ceiling, and the furniture in the old kitchen and also hichados moisture. We not cook because we were disgusted. Smelled musty, the bathroom has no ventilation. The sink faucet was loose. The lights did not work, only two lamps plug. fucionaba television and also, besides being old and become sticky. I do not recommend this apartment to a family with children. Dirt is not once, but a long time, so I think that the positive comments on this apartment are not real.
Pequeño para 4 personas, y eso que fuimos con dos niñas. Nada más llegar nos encontramos con que sólo había sábanas y toallas para 2. Tuvimos que llamar a la agencia para solucionarlo, el propietario es una agencia. Nos las trajeron esa misma tarde.
El piso estaba sucio y deteriorado, con moho en las esquinas de la ducha, telerañas en el techo, y los muebles de la cocina viejos y además hichados de humedad. No cocinamos porque nos dió asco. Olía a humedad, el baño no tiene ventilación. El grifo del lavabo estaba suelto. Las luces no funcionaban, sólo dos lámparas de enchufar. y la televisión tampoco fucionaba, además de ser antigua y estar pegajosa. No recomiendo este piso a ninguna familia con niños. La suciedad no es de una vez, sino de mucho tiempo, por lo que considero que los comentarios positivos sobre este apartamento no son reales.
pros: -good the area, near the metro
. -close to supermarket, bakery, Starbucks .....
against: - the apartment and 'poorly maintained (broken toilet cup, no curtains ...) a little' dirty and to get there you have to climb a steep and narrow stairs, and also 'almost impossible to use the shower due to the ceiling too low
pro: -buona la zona,a due passi dalla metro
. -vicino a supermercato,panetteria,Starbucks.....
contro:- l'appartamento e' mal tenuto (tazza wc rotta,assenza di tende oscuranti...) un po' sporco e per arrivarci si deve salire una scala stretta e ripida,inoltre e' quasi impossibile utilizzare la doccia a causa del soffitto troppo basso
Good location, good price, but unfortunately it was the other things that were less good example would be the Internet, but was not, the bulbs were broken in most of the lights, and there was only bedside lamps to some people. The sofa bed does not work for two people, even if it is sold as a double bed. But, it was clean and fresh. Linen, towel and final cleaning included which was very nice. However, it was difficult to see this on the homepage.
Bra läge, bra pris, men tyvärr så var det andra saker som var mindre bra tex internet skulle finnas, men fanns ej, glödlamporna var trasiga i merparten av lamporna, och det fanns bara sänglampor till vissa bäddar. Bäddsoffan funkar inte för två personer, även om den säljs som en dubbelsäng. Men, det var rent och fräscht. Linne, handduk och slutstädning ingick vilket var väldigt skönt. Men, det var svårt att se detta på hemsidan.
- Location: central, metro station and shopping right next to it
- Kitchen equipment
- Size
- Sauber
- Water in the bathroom with little pressure, temperature is not constant
- Sofa bed not comfortable
Overall reasonable for the price but the showers had no pleasure!
- Lage: zentral, Metrostation und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten direkt daneben

Professor William A. Dupont and the restored Ernest Hemingway
home in Havana, Cuba
Preservationist comes to UTSA architecture college
By James M. Benavides
Public Affairs Specialist
(April 9, 2007)--The UTSA College of Architecture and the San Antonio Conservation Society will formally welcome Professor William A. Dupont at a reception hosted by the society at the historic Steves Homestead, 509 King William St. at 5 p.m., Tuesday, April 10.
Dupont, who recently was named to the UTSA San Antonio Conservation Society Endowed Professorship in Honor of Mary Ann Blocker Castleberry, is known for his work in historic preservation. Castleberry was president of the organization from 1977 to 1979. Dupont replaces professor Eugene George, FAIA, who held the seat from its creation through 2003.
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
Dupont's most recent work includes leading a team of U.S. experts to assist in the restoration of Ernest Hemingway's Finca Vigia home in Havana, Cuba.
He came to UTSA at the start of the spring 2007 semester and divides his time between teaching and fulfilling obligations as the chief architect for the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
"San Antonio is a tremendously historic place and it's a great honor to be the San Antonio Conservation Society's endowed professor," said Dupont. "Creating this position at UTSA shows a great deal of foresight from the Conservation Society. They continue to work as advocates for historic preservation. To be connected with them and the College of Architecture at UTSA makes this a special opportunity for me."
In his new position, Dupont will teach the historic preservation portion of the graduate curriculum and develop a nationally recognized program for students to earn certificates in historic preservation.
"Professor Dupont is an outstanding appointment for the College of Architecture," said Julius Gribou, dean of the UTSA College of Architecture. "He will lead UTSA to a new level of national prominence in historic preservation through his leadership, graduate teaching and research."
According to Gribou, Dupont's historic preservation projects made him a strong candidate for the position. In addition to Finca Vigia, Dupont has conducted restoration projects at Mies van der Rohe's Farnsworth House in Plano, Ill., Philip Johnson's Glass House in New Canaan, Conn., the President Lincoln Cottage in Washington, D.C., and Villa Finale, the former home of San Antonio philanthropist Walter Mathis, in San Antonio, Texas.
"The Conservation Society is very pleased that Bill Dupont has been appointed to the historic preservation professorship we endowed in memory of Mary Ann Blocker Castleberry," said Virginia S. Nicholas, president of the San Antonio Conservation Society. "His knowledge and experience will be a tremendous benefit to the development of the preservation program in the UTSA College of Architecture, which will ultimately assist with the preservation of the San Antonio area's many historic resources."
The San Antonio Conservation Society's written support assisted the college in attaining accreditation from the National Architectural Accreditation Board in 2001. It is now the second-largest architecture program in Texas.

2011 Ligonier National Conference - Session 5 (R.C. Sproul)
from Tim Challies Mar 25, 2011 Category: EventsR.C. Sproul began the second day of the Ligonier Ministries National Conference with a talk titled "Defending the Faith." This was a talk on apologetics, reminding us that every Christian is responsible to be able to defend the faith. Dr. Sproul spoke at length about Augustine and Augustine's attempts to defend the symbiotic relationship between faith and reason. Augustine wanted to reach an assurance of our faith that is at the level of certainty. Today most apologists believe that philosophical certainty about issues like the existence of God is a fool's errand doomed to failure. Augustine did not share that view and neither does Sproul.

Should My Child Believe in Christmas If I Don't?

We're a proud Chrismukkah family, but neither myself nor my lapsed-Catholic wife are religious. We love the culture and traditions that our families bestowed upon us, many of which are, yes, tied to religion. But unlike our toddler, we're both rationalists who believe in science, not magic or miracles. I'm fine with the great Santa deception because it's temporary and is about delight without the threat of damnation -- a lump of coal hardly compares to hellfire. But it's my job as a parent to teach Emile morality, regardless of supernatural opinions on the matter.

"Christmas is all about giving." It's a catchphrase that's been bludgeoned into us since we were kids. It's not politically correct to say, but for most of us Christmas is actually about getting exactly what you want for YOURSELF. Now that the holidays are officially over and stragglers have by now dropped off the last of the presents, it's time to survey the spoils. This year's yield was most fruitful.

Thanks to the Red Jacket Crew! Trigger is sweet, works flawlessly, conversion went smoothly. I have shot 5 stand a couple times with it as I have trap. In a couple weeks I plan to take it out shooting bowling pins.
Thanks partner , I'll be around more often
