no comb rotation for 8 years
no comb rotation for 8 years
Seems the simple answer is for someone to have comb samples tested in a gas chromatograph over a period of years building up a real data set of how (or if) chemicals build up in used brood comb. You would then have real values of chemical buildup to put with observations of hive health instead of just guessing at some arbitrary period of time. You could also correlate chemical buildup in comb with chemical load of pollen brought in by bees by regular testing of pollen from pollen traps. Is there a strong correlation to chemical contamination of pollen brought in vs chemical build up in the comb?
without tracking of something like the above (a hard number) then your results will be subject to so many other variables as to make any results a subject of endless debate on forums for forever in the future.

Zone 5a, Practicing non-intervention beekeeping
Analyzing what's in a comb is one thing, figuring out how it interacts with the bees is another.
There's another factor from the survey that I really don't know how to analyze, namely reusing brood comb that's been taken out of production:
I'm not quite sure about the meaning of "taken out of production" in this context. Don't most of us move comb around from hive to hive and store any excess comb until we need it? Sometimes it's needed in a few days, a week, or just later in the season as the brood nest contracts and expands. Don't we all strive to have some comb on hand that is already drawn but empty? So I have no idea how ( or even IF) to apply this particular stat. It seems like it is saying this is a dangerous method and leads to losses--but that doesn't make any sense to me!Beekeepers who reported reusing old brood comb in their colonies reported losing on average 12.6 more colonies per 100 (49.5% more) than beekeepers who did not report reusing brood comb that had been taken out of production or purchased.
I agree. But it should at least point us in helpful directions, don't you think? The problems arise trying to figure out what the stats actually mean, or if they mean anything at all!Again, data interpretation through pure numbers alone isn't going to find all the answers.

ANY results no matter how obtained will be debated by beekeepers endlessly on forums.without tracking of something like the above (a hard number) then your results will be subject to so many other variables as to make any results a subject of endless debate on forums for forever in the future.
"There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies and statistics."
- Mark Twain
The numbers/data can point us in the direction, but answers...
@dirt road
Debate can often be solved through scientific method. There doesn't seem to be a lot of money for that in beekeeping so one has to go with what they "know", have been told from trusted sources or what they learn themselves. Fortunately, bees seem to be tolerant and adaptable so there seems to be a lot of room at the margins.
"it frustrates me to see people attempt science only in a really poor way."
Thats because you frustrate yourself by a lack of observation skills. I made no reference to comb contamination!

Ryan wins girls' title at Birch Tree
Pequot Lakes' Caitie Ryan won the girls race, but the Patriot girls' team had to settle for second after losing the (sixth-runner) tiebreaker with United North Central in the Birch Tree Conference cross country meet on Tuesday, Oct. 15, in Menahga.
The Patriots' Jackie Brine-Doyle finished second while teammate Sarah Rudlang was seventh and Elsa Headlee ninth. The top seven girls and boys earned all-conference while positions eight through 10 receive honorable mention.
"Caitie (Ryan) and Jackie (Brine-Doyle) both ran a great race, and Sarah (Rudlang) also made all-conference," said Pequot Lakes coach Jon Dale, whose girls' squad was the defending event champions. "UNC was able to tie our score when three of their runners each passed one of our girls in the final 100 meters."
The Pequot Lakes boys also finished second led by Seth Golden's fourth-place finish with Reid Pierzinski placing ninth and Tony Fitzer 10th.
"Seth (Golden) has been our top finisher for the past three meets," Coach Dale said of Golden, who joined the Patriots last season after his family moved to Pequot Lakes. "Overall, I think all of our runners ran hard. There's just more competition in the Birch Tree this year."
The Pine River-Backus boys were fourth, led by T.J. Lukenan in sixth place to earn all-conference honors. Shayna Moore, who placed 17th, was the top finisher for the Tiger girls, who placed fifth.
PR-B and Pequot Lakes are scheduled to compete at the Section 8A meet on Friday, Oct. 25, in Bagley.
"We're looking forward to the section meet," Dale said. "You run your whole season for that meet, and it will be tough. Our section is so stacked with Perham and Park Rapids being the girls' favorites and Warroad, Perham and Roseau being the top boys' teams."
Boys team scores: 1-Ottertail Central 18, 2-Pequot Lakes 62, 3-United North Central (Sebeka/Menahga) 83, 4-PIne River-Backus 106, 5-Pillager 129

so many more im forgetting.
.youre right. thats the main reason i downloaded it lol
There's this geeky tv show from about 10 years ago made by Joss Whedon called "Firefly", and it had a HUGE cult following, but FOX ****ed it up by playing things out of order, so it stopped making sense. Subsequently ended up getting cancelled because it clearly affected who watched it.So Whedon made a movie out of it "Serenity", and ended up making a KILLING off the movie, the dvd sales, and the show box set.

Canada deports US man accused of kidnapping son
LONGMONT, Colo. - A man accused of assaulting his estranged wife at her Longmont home on May 25 and then fleeing to Canada with their 3-year-old son has been returned to Boulder County to face felony charges.
Longmont police Sgt. Joel Post said Monty Ray Turner returned Monday after Canadian authorities decided he should be deported because of the serious criminal charges.
Turner's lawyer said at a hearing in Winnipeg, Manitoba, that Turner wanted to return to the U.S. as soon as possible to face the charges.
Turner is suspected of breaking into his estranged wife's Colorado home last month, attacking her with a stun gun and pepper spray and kidnapping their son.
Turner and his son were discovered the next day at a motel in Brandon, Manitoba.

California foreclosures hit seven year low
Number of foreclosures in the state are down over past year
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - Some are calling it the light at the end of a very dark tunnel. A new report shows the California housing market is finally recovering.
The number of homes going into foreclosure has plunged to a 7 year low.
Longtime realtor Steve Epstein has a lot of experience dealing with foreclosures, and he's seeing a dramatic shift.
"Last year at this time, it was ninety percent of my business. It's not ten percent of my business now," he said.
Santa Barbara wasn't as affected by the housing market crash as many other areas in the state--including North county where the number of foreclosures far surpassed those in the South.
"In Santa Barbara, we are built out. There's no where to go. It's a supply and demand thing. Places like Santa Maria that were allowed to build, got harder hit," Epstein explained.
A new report says even those hardest hit areas are feeling some relief.
According to real estate research firm, Data Quick, the number of loans going into default have gone down more than fifty percent in the past year.
The report credits the improving economy and new laws protecting homeowners.
"Really the bulk of the laws had to do with forcing the banks to have a dialogue with people, in a meaningful amount of time. If there was an ability to save their house, they could," said Epstein.
He says he's worked with clients who've been on the brink of losing their homes, but were saved at the last minute.
According to Data Quick, the median home price in California is up more than 22 percent from just a year ago.

Colombia has recently seen exponential growth in its mining industry — and the promise continues. Although Colombia has a long tradition of mining dating back to pre-Hispanic times, that potential went largely untapped in modern times due to socio-political unrest. Though Colombia is the fifth largest exporter of coal in the world, much of its territory and potential for mining gold, emeralds, silver, nickel and platinum remains unexplored.
However, improved security conditions have increased investor confidence, creating a business-friendly environment and a resurgence of Colombia's mining industry.
This video publication, "Colombian mining matters" examines Colombia's mining industry in-depth, offering investors insights into many pressing questions:
Our three-part video publication series explores the potential for mining in Colombia in the coming years.
The first video in our series examines how mining friendly Colombia is and offers insights into the socio-political landscape. The second video presents practical information about the dynamics of the Colombian mining industry, such as how to obtain a mining concession, environmental and community issues you need to consider and organizations that can help you. The third video covers important technical questions about the country's regulatory environment and provides tips on financing options.

This week Facebook cut off both Twitter's new photo app Vine and messaging app Voxer from Find Friends, which is Facebook's API that lets you connect with Facebook friends on other apps. SiliconANGLE Contributing Editor John Casaretto explained why this was such a disabling move by Facebook.
"It's probably the fastest way if you have a new app . . . connecting with the majority of where your friends are," he said. "For most people, that's Facebook. It's a crippling shortcut to a lot of these new apps that are coming up."
Casaretto speculated on Facebook's motive for pulling the API plug from these apps. He defended Facebook's desire to keep their social graph information to themselves, implying that it's not fair that competitors should expect Facebook to just hand over all the user data they've gathered.
Casaretto indicated this could backfire on Facebook, in terms of developers and others who are building applications. He said that if they feel their apps may be blocked by Facebook, they could ultimately turn to Twitter or other social media to connect in with users. Casaretto feels this could be detrimental to new applications coming out if there's not an open platform that developers have access to. He said, "From that side of the fence, it's a big impairment."
Casaretto compared Facebook's cord cutting move to the chat app wars from the past, when AOL, MSN and Yahoo were all blocking each other. He said, "I think this is a natural reaction, an evolution, if you will." Although Facebook may be on top for now, Casaretto said it's not hard to predict there will be other social networks with a lot of clout, and Facebook will have to learn to work together with them, but it's just not happening right now.
It's obvious that the users are the victims who lose in these social media wars. Casaretto recommends that they let their voices be heard if this is a feature they really want, and maybe Facebook will finally start listening. See the entire segment with Kristin Feledy and John Casaretto on the Morning NewsDesk Show.

[quote user="Redeyejedi"]Stephen Hill scares me because the extent of his playing WR is run in a straight line and catch the ball and his hands arent great. He doesnt play as fast as his clocked time either[/quote]
Yea, agree with this
i think he has great upside as a deep threat. maybe like a poor man's randy moss. guy who can run in a straight line with long strides and go up and get the ball.
but thats the only thing he does well. hes going to have to learn how to not run routes so much in a straight line (or hes going to find himself out of bounds or tight to the sidelines a lot) and get in and out of his cuts. Based on his 20 ss, he ran a poorous 4.48 which is terrible for the WR position. Some defensive ends ran faster than that
Mayock praised his route running at his pro day so maybe im wrong here

Controlling Deer Damage In Georgia
Repellents are the most commonly used method of preventing unwanted deer browsing on small acreages. Both home remedies and commercial repellents have been used with varying degrees of success. There are two general types of repellents: 1) area repellents that produce a noxious odor and 2) contact repellents that are offensive-tasting to deer. Both types of repellents are more effective if applied before deer browsing begins. It is much easier to discourage deer from feeding on certain plants than to interrupt established feeding patterns. A variety of repellents are available for discouraging deer, but most are effective only on small acreages such as home gardens. Expense, inconsistent effectiveness, and limitations on application make most repellents a poor choice for large-scale agricultural crops.
Home Remedy Repellents
Human Hair
Human hair is used by some as a repellent, however its' effectiveness is uncertain and/or short-lived. Hair should be placed in mesh bags or socks and suspended from plants to be protected or hung around the perimeter of cultivated areas. Bags containing about 1 handful of hair are placed at a height of 2 to 3 feet and spaced about 3 feet apart. Bags should be replaced several times during the growing season. Hair can be obtained easily and inexpensively from barbershops or beauty salons.
Guard Dogs
Instead of using hair, use the whole animal! A dog confined by an invisible fence or tethered in the yard or around the garden may frighten away deer or other intruders.
Milorganite is partially composted sewage that has been dried at an intense heat. It is also a high quality, slow-release fertilizer. Apply about 5 lbs. per 100 square feet at two to four week intervals. It is reported to work well in spring and summer, but may be less effective in winter. Milorganite may be purchased from most landscape and garden supply stores.
Animal By-Products
Animal wastes or by-products, such as rotten meat scraps, blood meal and feather meal are placed in cheesecloth, nylon bags or such and suspended from plants or posts. These substances also can be spread on the ground or mixed with water for direct spray-application. Blood meal will act as a deer repellent and can fertilize your plants at the same time. Some success has been reported but many of these substances are found in nature and their effectiveness is uncertain.
Eggs and Egg Mixtures (including garlic and cayenne pepper)
About 4 to 6 raw eggs thoroughly mixed with one gallon of water can be sprayed directly on plants to repel deer. This simple, inexpensive treatment is often very effective, particularly for ornamentals, nursery stock, or small gardens. Try mixing raw eggs with liquid soap, hot cayenne pepper and garlic. Be sure to strain the mixture carefully before running it through your garden sprayer. Always test the mixture sparingly on a plant before making a wholesale application. The mix may damage some tender plants.
Some orchards have discouraged deer browsing by hanging bars of soap from trees or shrubs once per season. One paper-wrapped, motel-sized bar of deodorant soap per tree or shrub will work for individual trees. Drill a hole in the soap, tie a string or fishing line to the hole and suspend soap from a limb so that it hangs about 4 feet above the ground. Effective area of protection is about 3-feet. Irish Spring soap hung in a nylon stocking seems to be a popular favorite, but any scented soap probably will work. Deer may be more repelled by the animal fats used in soap making than with the actual perfume scent of the soap. Scented soap melted in water and sprayed directly on plant leaves also is reportedly effective.
Mothballs (naphthalene) or flakes also may be suspended in mesh bags or spread on the ground as area repellents. Mothballs should be replaced as they evaporate. Their effectiveness is questionable outdoors because the odor dissipates rapidly. Household ammonia is a general wildlife repellent. Rags are saturated with ammonia and put into milk jugs with cutout holes. These jugs are placed around the perimeter of a garden or small orchard and may serve to repel deer.
Commercial Repellents
There are generally two categories of commercial repellents: odor and taste. Each type has different benefits depending on the situation. Other factors to consider when choosing a repellent include: if it is appropriate for edible plants, how easily it "sticks" to the plant, durability (how long it stays on the plant), and expense. Repellents are more effective when applied before browsing begins and effectiveness of almost all repellents can be increased by use of a commercial sticker/spreader. Effectiveness will vary depending on weather conditions, amount of deer pressure, type of plants to be protected, and persistence and ingenuity of the applicator.
When selecting a repellent, determine its ingredients-both active and inert. Several tests of repellents show that those emitting a sulfurous odor (e.g. predator urine, meat proteins, garlic, eggs) were most effective in repelling deer, particularly during the summer time. If you are protecting edible plants, most odor-based repellents that use garlic or egg-based are quite safe for edible plants and do not impact the fruit. Taste repellents (typically containing bittering agents) not only make the plant taste bad to deer, but may make produce taste bad to people. Some taste repellents are systematic in function, meaning the repellent is absorbed by the roots and spread throughout the plant thereby lasting 2-3 years with one application. Additionally, be sure to determine how often the repellent should be applied and if repeat applications are necessary following a rain or watering event. Repellents in granular forms or in dispensers (such as garlic oil clip on dispensers) may be more desirable from an application standpoint. Lastly, determining the cost of the amount of repellent necessary to temporarily protect your plants is strong consideration for most.
Remember, variety is important when it comes to repelling deer by not letting them become accustomed to any one smell or condition. A combination of repellents and scare tactics is usually the most reliable, temporary deterrent to deer browsing. However, hunting and electric fencing have proven to be the most cost effective deer protection in the long-term. Many varieties of commercial repellents may be purchased locally at department, hardware, lawn and garden, or farm supply stores as well as online or contact the local WRD Game Management office for suggested retailers.

You might not like it but what is not true about it??? Did you watch the NC
He can get a sunburn!!
A better receiving core will come back with Jake Juneau who's getting recruited by LSU
with the horrible playcalling at STM recently i don't see much hope for him to light it up in any signifigant (playoff) games that would give him that edge over other qbs of the same mold.
don't see an LSU offer regardless of what he is able to do this year. Ole Miss, Miss St, U-La-La, Tulsa, and schools of that caliber are probably more what he's looking at. If the Cajuns were smart, they'd do everything they can to keep him in Lafayette
Brandon Bergeron is another top signal caller that the LSU staff is monitoring closely. After visiting LSU on Feb. 4, 2012, we were able to catch up with Brandon to gauge how his visit went. Profile: Brandon Bergeron QB 6-3 195 2013 St. Thomas Moore HS His parents took the trip with him, and really all the facilities with him. Even though the family is huge fans of LSU, Brandon told our staff that he is wide open in his recruitment.
Here is a look at some of the responses given by Bergeron in a recent interview:
Q. How did you and your family enjoy your first trip to LSU?
A. "We all thoroughly enjoyed this experience, and my parents really appreciated the Cox Academic Center."
Q. Who has been responsible for most of your growth on the football field the past few years? A. "My Offensive Coordinator, he has helped me grow in my progressions and check-downs."
Q. Do participate in any other sports at St. Thomas Moore?
A. "Yes Sir, I play baseball, and did play basketball my freshman year."
Q. How would you feel if you received an LSU offer?
A. "I would be really happy, but I would still see what is out there, not going to rush any decisions."
Q. What did Coach Kragthorpe say to your family while on campus?
A. "He said the staff was going to be watching me over the next year closely. He also stressed the importance of academics?"
Q. Can you elaborate on that?
A."After position meetings for the coaches and visitors, we were spoken to for over an hour from staff concerning the academic portion of the school and what they expect."
The staff has viewed Brandon's film and can see a cerebral QB, with mobility, can throw on the run, and has gotten better going through his progressions. He will need to continue to gain arm strength, and work more on his agility.

Today is a day for champions—a day to call on global leaders to commit to ensuring all children have enough food to eat, no matter where they are born in the world.
Nearly 200 million children are chronically malnourished and suffer from lifelong, often irreversible, physical and cognitive damage as a result. Malnutrition also contributes to 35 percent of all deaths of children under the age of 5 annually, and roughly 20 percent of all maternal deaths.
Malnutrition is not just a result of poverty—it is also a cause.
As ChildFund's CEO Anne Lynam Goddard often points out: Childhood is a one-time opportunity. We have one chance to get it right, especially when it comes to nutrition during the 1,000-day window that starts with a mother's pregnancy and continues until a child is 2 years old.
Experts agree—nutrition delivers the biggest bang for the buck when investing in future generations. A panel of Nobel laureate economists known as the Copenhagen Consensus recently concluded that fighting malnutrition in young children should be the top investment priority for policymakers. The payoff is huge: $1 in invested in nutrition generates as much as $138 in better health and increased productivity.
Investing in improved nutrition can
At ChildFund, we emphasize growth promotion until the child is 3 years old. Helping ensure the health and security of infants is a critical component of our work with children throughout their life stages. Healthy infants are more likely to become educated and confident children, who, in turn, grow into skilled and involved youth. When children have a healthy start in life, they have a greater opportunity to break the bonds of poverty.
We fully support the Scaling Up Nutrition roadmap that is guiding the international aid community's efforts to combat undernutrition.
Today on Capitol Hill, ChildFund is joining hands with other international development organizations, members of Congress, government leaders, civil society groups and private industry to call for action on child nutrition issues at the G8 Summit taking place this weekend at Camp David in Washington, D.C.
We call on leaders in the U.S. administration, Congress and G8 delegations to join us in support of improved nutrition globally, particularly for women and children in the 1,000 days from pregnancy to a child's second birthday.
Our objectives are straightforward:
Now is the time for global leaders to reaffirm their commitment to confronting the challenges of hunger, poverty and disease by accelerating efforts to improve nutrition, particularly for women and children.
Will you join us and be a champion for change?

On Your Feet: Shoes and Sneakers for Fall 2012
Taking their cues from the front runners in fashion, shoes and sneakers tend to tag along with the trends.
We've already told you about the Nike SB Dunk High Tops. And we mentioned a pretty sharp pair of suede/leather Yves Saint Laurents. But we can do more. We can do better. The world of sneakers and shoes is just as in tune with trends as everything else the fashion light touches so there's no need to leave you in the dark. When you take what we've already told you about this season's grays and browns, about the leather and the texture and the simple design, and apply it to shoes, this is what you get:
Creative Recreation Lacava
The Lacava is somewhere between an oxford and a wingtip, and yet it is decidedly neither. Creative recreation stays true to its name, offering the wearer a look that is at once innovative, comfortable and friendlily refined.
Supra Vaider High Top
Supra has become synonymous with style. A skater-inspired company, they have in recent years branched out to a more mainstream audience, taking their design and developmental cues from the early days of Converse and Air Jordan.
Royal Elastics Puppet
Tying your shoes? So last year. Royal Elastics has put an end to the nuisance of knots with their innovative elastic system and contemporary style, bringing laziness into the hands of the laid-back, which we'll attest is a lethal combination.
J Shoes District
Since their arrival on the scene over a decade ago, J Shoes has consistently brought high fashion to the humble streets, fusing the two worlds seamlessly with enough room left over for a comfortable fit. The District is one part top-sider, one part wingtip, one part loafer and ten parts awesome.
Royal Elastics Brother Roland
Another entry from our Australian friends at Royal Elastics. The boys Down Under have really got this shoe thing licked; with a leather upper and hand-crafted sole, the BRs can be worn at both work or play, while out on the prowl or feigning a life of the prim and proper.
Feiyue Varisty Mid
Literally translating to "fly forward," the folks from Feiyue are at the forefront of innovation. Case in point: this kung fu-inspired high top. Crafted from wool and leather, it lacks the usual flimsiness of others in its class and is more than a few steps ahead in style points.

No Problem maybe someone can get them for you soon.
Not at all. Now there isn't much room at all but they don't rub. Which is why I went with that size because I am not a fan of trimming my truck. Hope this helps.
Separate names with a comma.


text: I know that me and a few other members of my family were talking about joining BGSL this summer so we could have a place other than Buds to shoot. But after reading this i think we might all pass on the membership. It sounds like they are putting to many restrictions on everything. I understand that safety must come first when shooting but there is a point where it goes beyond safety and just gets ridiculous. Thanks for the info!

Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is a type of prostate surgery done to relieve moderate to severe urinary symptoms caused by an enlarged prostate, a condition known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
During TURP, a combined visual and surgical instrument (resectoscope) is inserted through the tip of your penis and into the tube that carries urine from your bladder (urethra). The urethra is surrounded by the prostate. Using the resectoscope, your doctor trims away excess prostate tissue that's blocking urine flow and increases the size of the channel that allows you to empty your bladder.
TURP is one of the most effective options for treating urinary symptoms caused by BPH. To determine whether TURP or another treatment is the right choice for you, your doctor will consider how severe your symptoms are, what other health problems you have, and the size and shape of your prostate.
Urinalysis is a test that evaluates a sample of your urine. Urinalysis is used to detect and assess a wide range of disorders, such as urinary tract infection, kidney disease and diabetes.
Urinalysis involves examining the appearance, concentration and content of urine. Abnormal urinalysis results may point to a disease or illness. For example, a urinary tract infection can make urine look cloudy instead of clear. Increased levels of protein in urine can be a sign of kidney disease.
Abnormal results of a urinalysis often require more testing and evaluation to uncover the source of the problem.
Vasectomy is a form of male birth control that cuts the supply of sperm to your semen. It's done by cutting and sealing the tubes that carry sperm. Vasectomy has a low risk of problems and can usually be performed in an outpatient setting under local anesthesia.
Before getting a vasectomy, however, you need to be certain you don't want to father a child in the future. Vasectomy is considered a permanent form of male birth control.

Attacks on the Press | Burundi, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Mali, Nigeria, Somalia
Attacks on the Press: Between Insurgents, Governments
The rise of extremist groups who target journalists is a potent risk. By Mohamed Keita

The rise of extremist groups who target journalists is a potent risk. By Mohamed Keita
When a coup occurs somewhere in the world, journalists are usually the first to be sidelined. Beyond the classic scene of a new leader addressing the nation and promising democracy, stability, and wealth, reporters are usually simply undesirable within the new leadership's entourage.
New York, October 7, 2008--The Committee to Protect Jounalists welcomes today's provisional release of veteran Nigerien journalist Moussa Kaka after more than a year behind bars on anti-state charges.
An appeals court in the capital, Niamey, ordered Kaka's release on bail pending trial by a magistrate court on amended charges of "undermining national territorial integrity through conspiracy with Tuareg rebels," defense lawyer Boureïma Fodi told CPJ. The charges, punishable by up to 10 years in prison, represent a lesser offense than the previous accusation of "complicity in undermining the authority of the state," which carries a life sentence, according to Fodi.
New York, August 20, 2008—Authorities in Niger summarily suspended a private broadcaster for a month citing unspecified regulatory violations, according to local journalists and news reports. The station has provided sympathetic coverage of the country's former prime minister, now jailed on corruption charges, according to several sources.
In a ruling obtained by CPJ, the state-run High Council on Communications found Dounia Television and Radio in "noncompliance with regulatory terms and conditions," but provided no further explanation. Dounia Deputy Director-General Ali Idrissa disputed the vague allegation, saying the station did not receive notice about any such issue prior to the ruling. Today, Council President Daouda Diallo declined to comment to CPJ, saying he was in a meeting. "The suspension of Dounia Television and Radio on unsubstantiated grounds is part of a pattern of a government censorhip of media outlets, whether local or foreign, for critical coverage," said Robert Mahoney, CPJ's deputy director. "We call on the government to lift this suspension immediately and allow the station to broadcast freely."
June 12, 2008
Posted July 24, 2008
Original alert: March 13, 2008Radio France Internationale
French broadcaster Radio France Internationale resumed FM broadcasts in Niger following a three-month suspension imposed by Niger authorities in March, according to news reports.
New York, March 13, 2008—Niger's official media regulator summarily suspended on Wednesday the FM broadcasts of France-based Radio France Internationale (RFI) for three months. Authorities accused RFI of discrediting the government in connection with a day-long series of programs on Monday about the detention of RFI correspondent Moussa Kaka.
CPJ mourns the loss of Niger radio director
New York, January 9, 2008—CPJ mourns the untimely death of the director of Niger's first independent radio station, Radio R & M (Radio and Music), based in the capital, Niamey, after his car drove over a landmine yesterday on the city's outskirts.
Abdou Mahamane, commonly known as "Jeannot," hit the landmine while driving his Toyota home through Yantala, a suburb west of Niamey. Mahamane, who was also the vice president of the national press association, Maison de la Presse, died in a local hospital around midnight, according to local news reports. A woman passenger also sustained minor injuries from the explosion, the reports said.
New York, December 21, 2007—Two French journalists detained since Monday in the capital, Niamey, will now be tried in court, an official announced today.
Journalist Thomas Dandois and cameraman Pierre Creisson of Franco-German TV network Arte Television were arrested south of Niamey after police allegedly discovered footage and photos of rebel Tuareg leaders, government spokesman Ben Omar Mohamed told Agence France-Presse. The journalists, officially in Niger to cover a story about bird flu in the southern city of Maradi, had been "under surveillance since the beginning," he said.
Do you believe the free flow of information must be protected? Sign the #RightToReport petition and demand that President Obama immediately:
1. Issue a presidential policy directive prohibiting the hacking and surveillance of journalists and media organizations.
2. Limit aggressive prosecutions that ensnare journalists and intimidate whistleblowers.
3. Prevent the harassment of journalists at the U.S. border.

quote:No. No. No.
So I guess some people should give up, use their "IQ" as an excuse and simply never try? Thats definitely not dangerous to society, amirite?
Without touching on the IQ angle again, society in "black America" has created an atmosphere that seems to praise poor choices. . Aversions to dual parent household and educations are dooming many before they have a chance.
Many also seem to find it easy to blame others for their own shortcomings.
Everyone has been given the tools to escape poverty. Some don't take advantage of it.
They why state it?
Are you really saying there is no significant genetic component
How do you explain the massive failure in the Black community if intelligence can be significantly improved by social intervention?
By all means let's just ignore scientific results, espouse what we hoped the science would say, and hope the whole thing disappears.
Well, off the top of my head, maybe people in the "black community" are not applying these "social interventions."
Nutrition assistance, free health care, free or subsidized housing, early education, 13K a kid in public schools, grants for college, retraining programs, rehabilitating programs, detox programs, safe sex programs,
Organizations to find every potential applicant to expand the benefit base and bureaucracy
Yeah, the community is under served and the Blacks don't like social services that must be the problem!
quote:Well that's a hell of a stupid question isn't it. Where phenotypic expression is clear, genotype will follow. Phenotypic expression is clear in this case.
I'll ask you the same questions:
What chromosome does it lie on? How many base pairs is it? How many different alleles are present in the population?
quote:Almost assuredly.
Are there isoforms
quote:Did you read the medical paper? Sometimes an attempt to be cute is silly. You're getting there.
Which metabolic pathway or stage of development does it most impact?
Where phenotypic expression is clear, genotype will follow. Phenotypic expression is clear in this case.
I took "social interventions" to mean a stable household, parents that emphasized the value of education, work ethic, etc. which is why I placed it in quotes.
Regardless, the programs you listed are not pertinent to our discussion
Interesting, sounds like a call for moral and ethical behavior intervention
quote:Oh Good Lord dude.
Actually no, thats not right and is definitely a big myth. When's the last time you have taken a genetics class? All the ones I've ever taken when to great lengths to make sure that we understood that genotype and phenotype, although related, have a complex relationship. In other words, phenotype does NOT always point to an underlying genotype.
Oh Good Lord dude.
Just stop!
Please, just wake up and stop.
A myth?
A big myth?
Phenotype has nothing to do with genotype?
If so, you should sue your school for return of your tuition.
quote:No kidding.
First off, myth was probably not the best word choice.
Misconception would have been better.
quote:As I posted this, and various iterations throughout the thread, no other conclusion could be drawn. None. It's clear you're attempting to deny and/or minimize heritable IQ characteristics.
Quote where I said phenotype has nothing to do with genotype. I'll wait.
quote:Again, if that was your intent, why ignore posts establishing phenotypic variation, and instead register the arguments you did discounting those posts?
I said they have a complicated, often not easily predictable relationship. Is that wrong? Is every bit of phenotypic variation you see in the human population primarily rooted in genetic causes?
does the environment not have alot of say as to whats going to happen to ones phenotype?
quote:No honey, you made (1) mistakes in literacy (2) mistakes in assimilation (3) mistakes in assumption.
I understand you're getting defensive because you made the most basic error when it comes to genetics ("clear" phenotype must point to "clear" genotype)
quote:Last class?
You still didn't tell me when the last genetics class you've taken was.
As I posted this, and various iterations throughout the thread, no other conclusion could be drawn.
It's clear you're attempting to deny and/or minimize heritable IQ characteristics.
Suppose you buy a bag of seed corn from a hardware store. This is not some sort of fancy cloned corn, but ordinary genetically varied corn of the sort that farmers planted long before there was a science of genetics. Grow one handful of it in a carefully controlled environment in which the seeds get uniform illumination and uniform nutrient solution. The corn plants will vary in height, and because the environment is uniform, the heritability of height will be 100 percent. Now take another handful of corn from the same bag, and grow it in a similarly uniform environment but with a uniformly poor nutrient solution. Again, the plants will vary in height, but all will be stunted. Once more the heritability of height is 100 percent. Despite the 100 percent heritabilities of height within each group, the difference in height between the groups is entirely environmentally caused. So we can have total heritability within groups, substantial variation between groups, but no genetic difference between the groups.
Last class?
Medical School
Well see, that qualifies as a point of disagreement.
Was your misconception concerning heritability something you were taught, or is it something you simply misunderstood?
I don't think an ear of corn is anywhere near as complex as the human genome, try again boss man!!!
Take a glance at homogeneous sub Saharan contributions... vs say... western European, and get back with the rest of us idiots .It's fairly cut n dry .I don't need a P.H.D. to recognize the obvious,just common sense.
When I asked why...he said his mother was afraid she would not be able to get his check if it was found out he was playing sports.

A frittata is a baked omelet, far easier because it lacks that pesky step of flipping it. Frittatas appeared on the Saturnia, a fashionable Italian cruise ship in the post-WWII years. The dish was an elegant lunch on transatlantic crossings and became a U.S. craze when The New York Times ran the first English-language recipe in 1952.

5 top bar hives. Mostly new since 2013; all feral, rescued swarms or cut-outs. Oldest hive growing fast and showing frenetic activity coming/going and above hive; checkerboarded some empty bars within brood nest; saw drone cells, two 4" square patches. Bees busy but not aggressive. Enlarged entrance (now a 2" round diameter opening on low side of hive toward front). Ten days after checkerboarding, hive showing even more frenetic activity. Went back in, removed 3 bars of good pattern brood to alleve crowding. Removed one full bar of honey. Re-grouped brood nest - moved drone comb to back of brood nest, Gave a weak/new hive the bars of brood and honey.
Bees from frenetic hive very aggressive - most aggressive ever experienced (although beekeeping only one year). Dive bombed me consistently. I'm always gentle and work to not squish but felt best action was to close hive as quickly as possible. I tried my best, but many bees squished. They kept coming up through the bars and at me - even with smoke.
I live in a suburban area - could not escape from my back yard or worry neighbors. Moved far as possible from hive (30 feet?); bees kept trying to get through suit, divebombing, ankle stings. Finally 30 minutes later, they had dissipated enough so I could get inside. For 2 days now I cannot go in my backyard without being divebombed. They guard my back door - need to wear veil to go outside. However, my gardener was not affected (I warned him and told him not to use motors around hives).
Please help - this once docile hive is now overly aggressive. I think the bees are crowded in hive (all bars are drawn or mostly). Don't know what to do - cannot have more hives. I'm very worried the bees will begin to attack neighbors or pets. Thank you for your insight and help.

Video games that provide good mathematics learning should look to the piano as a model
Keith Devlin
The majority of video games designed to provide mathematics learning fail educationally for one of two reasons: Either their designers know how to design and create video games but know little about mathematics education (in particular, how people learn mathematics) and in many cases don't seem to know what math really is, or they have a reasonable sense of mathematics and have some familiarity with the basic principles of mathematics education, but do not have sufficient experience in video game design. (Actually, the majority of math education games seem to have been created by individuals who know little more than how to code, so those games fail both educationally and as games.)
To build a successful video game requires an understanding, at a deep level, of what constitutes a game, how and why people play games, what keeps them engaged, and how they interact with the different platforms on which the game will be played. That is a lot of deep knowledge.
To build an engaging game that also supports good mathematics learning requires a whole lot more: understanding, at a deep level, what mathematics is, how and why people learn and do mathematics, how to get and keep them engaged in their learning, and how to represent the mathematics on the platform on which the game will be played. That too is a lot of deep knowledge.
In other words, designing and building a good mathematics educational video game—be it a massively multiplayer online game (MMO) or a single smartphone app—requires a team of experts from several different disciplines. That means it takes a lot of time and a substantial budget. How much? For a simple-looking, casual game that runs on an iPad, reckon nine months from start to finish and a budget of $300,000.
Following the tradition of textbook publishing, that budget figure does not include any payment to the authors who essentially create the entire pedagogic framework and content, nor the project's academic advisory board (which it should definitely have).

Now and then I get hit. I take a headshot when some ungentle fool singles me out for mockery. Because I'm short even for someone less than half my age. Because I'm not a stick figure. Because I 'don't look sick,' or because I do.
It's worst when the feature they make a bug of is my mind. As if smarts were stupid. As if I should rather be vapid than wise. I'll never want to live down to that expectation, but it always hurts to be thought of so lowly.
Alas, this scorned woman's witty comebacks are delayed-releases. I rarely find an edgewise word when I need one, and even when I do it poisons me as much as the snake that struck first. I'm waylaid by words one way or another, but still I search.
Until I find poetry.

Ratings for Dr. Ronnie I. Mimran
The nerve pain that went on 24/7 in my neck and right arm left me bed ridden for 5 months. When it was finally determined that I need 2, possibly 3 discs replaced in my neck along with the appropriate plates and screws put in place from C4-C7, I definitely had to take a deep breath. After asking friends, other physicians, and a very well respected physical therapist, one name kept coming up which was Dr. Ronnie Mimran. Mimran has impeccable credentials and a wonderful bedside manner. He genuinely cares about the health and welfare of his patients. He answered all of my questions and treated me with respect. The follow-up care was clearly outlined and I knew what to expect after surgery. The hospital where I had my procedure was Eden Medical in Castro Valley. They have a neurosurgery unit that took very good care of me, which was very important because I have had some not so great experiences at other facilities.
Excellent surgeon. Did excellent job on my herniated disc. All better now. No pain
The best ,knowledgeable, friendly, gave all the time I needed, great sense of humor,caring. A great and very helpful staff. Would recommend to everyone. Jay Keller
Diagnosed with Caude Equina last year and Dr. Mimran preformed emergency surgery on my back. The surgery went very well, no loss of motor function. He was great, explained very well and has an amazing bed side manner for a surgeon. If only more surgeons where more personable.
Neck surgery 3 months ago. I had 2 discs herniated pushing on my spinal cord. Surgery went well, and I am doing MUCH better. Back to work and I thank Dr. Mimran for that. I definitely would see him again without hesitation.
This post is for those wondering about board certification. All doctors in the group are Board Certified with the American Board of Neurological Surgery. Dr. Mimran received his certification 05/27/09. Kudos Dr. Mimran!!!
When I met this Dr. he was great knew exactly what was wrong and said it would be a simple proceedure. I schedule my surger out 4 weeks so I would be getting it the Thursday before a 3 day weekend. I work full-time and go to school full-time so this would mean I wouldn't miss class or work. Then I get a call 3wks later saying he decided to take that day off and can I have the surgery THIS week. My partner had already taken that other day off to give me a ride to and from the hospital. NOW what am I supposed to do? Miss 3days of work and 2 classes instead of 1
I was hit by a **** driver, ended up with a herniated disc that ruptured (L5-S1) 7 years later. In excruciating pain, I was brought in to Eden Hospital by ambulance where Dr. Mimran was standing at the hospital room door to take my records/MRI. He immediately gave us a diagnosis, scheduled me for surgery first thing the next morning. He explained everything to my husband & I, found worse damaged than expected...almost severed sciatic...and fixed it. He is EXTREMELY caring, went to bat for us when no one else could help, made me feel like I was the most important person and was at the top of his priority list. I hadn't been able to walk for over 2 months and I walked out the next day after my microdiscectomy. He is extremely professional and cares very much about my husband & I as people, not just patients. We recommend him to anyone who needs a sound opinion and top priority care. Dr. Mimran has our trust & we deeply respect him.

- One $50 Golf Credit, One $25 Club Rental Credit, and One $50 Spa Credit per Person
- Combine Vouchers to Stay for Up to Two Nights
If your kids' heroes wear argyles instead of shoulder pads and they'd rather don a green jacket than don a championship ring under the uprights, this family-friendly Escape to Texas Hill Country's premier golf destination is right down your fairway.
This holiday season, two adults and up to four kids ages 17 and under will spend one night in a Resort Guestroom, Sundays through Thursdays ($165) or Fridays and Saturdays ($185), at Barton Creek Resort & Spa—a golf resort with something for every member of the putting party. Each adult receives a $50 golf credit, a $25 club rental credit, and a $50 spa credit.
Tee off on any of four championship courses at Barton. Celebrated designer Tom Fazio's two courses—Fazio Canyons and Fazio Foothills—are ranked the number one and two resort golf courses in Texas by Golf Magazine. To improve your game, the resort offers a top-notch golf academy and Callaway Performance Center. Analyze your shot using Callaway's 3D imaging system, then get fitted for your perfect clubs.
Between games, swing by Three Springs Spa to purchase a massage or facial with your $50 spa credit. Later, you can load your cart with garb for everyone on your list, including Texas gifts, high-end fashions, and more at The Shops at Barton Creek. From November 21, 2012, to January 6, 2013, the resort operates the city's largest outdoor ice rink during its Holiday Lights & Ice event, so you can make winter the most wonderful time of the year.
A long day of festivities can work up an appetite; satisfy your cravings at one of the resort's four restaurants. Fine dining is par for the course at the AAA Four Diamond Hill Country Dining Room, where master chefs whip up dishes like potato sage-crusted black bass and prime bone-in rib-eye.
Have a ball at Barton Creek Resort & Spa. This holiday Escape to Texas Hill Country is so impressive, you'll be tempted to register it with the pros.
"Austin's only real full-service resort—one that caters to business travelers, couples, singles, and families alike—Barton Creek would stand out even if it weren't alone. The facilities are top-notch, including four 18-hole championship golf courses."-- Frommer's

Blind to Prejudice
Blind to Prejudice
More From Lydia
Lydia's Biography
Cause of Choice: Science Club for Girls and SACNAS
Advice to Young Women: "It is just as hard to do a hard career as an easy career so go for that which is interesting."
Biggest Influence Never Met: Octavio Paz through his book The Labyrinth of Solitude
Proudest Accomplishments: "The insulin work. The company I am involved in now which I am proud to have saved, and I think its product will be very important medically. And the people I've taught."
Lydia Villa-Komarrof's decision to pursue a career in science was decidedly unconventional for Mexican American upbringing in Santa Fe, New Mexico. "Traditionally, Hispanic women are not socialized to believe they can earn a living, much less be scientists," she has said. But her parents encouraged her to follow her dreams, and by age nine, she knew her future was as a scientist. In 1965, she enrolled in college as a chemistry major, but after an advisor told Villa-Komaroff that women did not belong in chemistry, she switched majors, settling on biology. After college, she was accepted at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and became the third Mexican-American woman to earn a science Ph.D. in the U.S.
During her 20-year research career, she has held positions at MIT, Harvard University, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Harvard Medical School, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratories, and Children's Hospital in Boston. Her most memorable discovery came in 1978, when she was the lead author of a landmark paper demonstrating how bacterial cells could be used to generate insulin. The work was a major scientific innovation in DNA technology and protein synthesis, and she was awarded with two patents.
Later in her career, Dr. Villa-Komaroff moved into science administration and the private bio-tech world where she now serves as Chief Scientific Officer and a Board member of Cytonome/ST. She has served on committees for the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, and the National Academies of Science and Engineering. Among other honors, she has been recognized by election to the Hispanic Engineer National Achievement Hall of Fame and was awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award by Hispanic Business Magazine. She is deeply committed to the recruitment and retention of minorities and women in science. She is a founding member of SACNAS, the Society for the Advancement of Chicanos and Native Americans in Science, and has served as a board member and vice president.

Nice cottage with a view to the Como lake. Clean, tidy and cozy apartment. Location very peaceful (except bells of the three nearby church, heh heh.) Path to the village of Argegno by walking is very attractive and has many great views to the lake, village and mountains cathering the lake. But, the path is not for those with bad legs or knees. It climbs from the lake shore so much, that it takes a little bit more time to reach the apartment than expected. Downwards appr. 10 mins. and upwards appr. 20 mins. Claudia was a perfect hostess, symphatetic and helpful. Highly recommended, if you not afraid of the path and a little bit hard walking. You can reach the cottage also by car almost to the yard. Car is necessary if you travel along the lake road to the other villages and cities by your own time table.
A nice little guest house with stunning views of Lake Como.
There were the necessary facilities and the location is beautiful, without too much tourism in the city.
The place is recommendable, but car is required to get around.
Lovely and helpful host.
Great place to stay. On the hill, just outside Argegno. The road is busy but the flat is set back and above the road, so that's no bother. Easy parking, and its a simple walk down to town using the pedestrianised streets, ie. not on the main road :) Flat is well equipped with a lovely balcony overlooking the lake. Claudia was a fantastic host, making sure we had all we needed on arrival and during our stay, and gave us a lovely present for our new baby, due in September, and a nice welcome bottle to celebrate our honeymoon! Would happily stay again,hopefully we will!
Claudia has a very nice place in Argegno in a very friendly local village. A perfect place to start tours from to the whole Como lake district.
We had great two days in Claudia's house. It's a nice, small house on the top of Argegno with a beautiful view to Lago di Como. Inside it was very clean and comfortable. Everything was great. Thanks a lot, best regards.
We had a wonderful stay at Claudia's little house with view on the Como lake! We particularly liked the fact that you have a small independant house for yourselves. Everything you need for living there for a couple of days is there. The bed is good, and in the morning you have a wonderful view over the lake with the rising sun.
Argegno is a very small little town with a cute square with some nice restaurants. You can walk down in about 10 minutes, but the way back up is challenging; on the other hand, at least you've had your exercise for that day!
We would recommend this place to everyone!
Everyone who is looking for a place to stay - choose this! It's 600 m from the lake's bank with numer of ristorantes. There is also a small garden in which you can have a rest under umbrella or have a bbq. Claudia works nearby, so the contact is quick and easy. House is perfect for two with very comfortable bad and beautiful view. I strongly recomend this place!
Meillä oli oikein loistava loma. Claudia on ihana vuokra-emäntä, joka todella välittää vieraistaan. Talo on mahtava. Kaikki toimi moitteettomasti. Ja mitkä maisemat. Ei riittänyt että ikkunoista aukeaa panorama maisema järvelle, vaan lisäksi takapihalla on pieni piha, josta on loistava näkymä vuorille. Viihdyimme todella hyvin ja voimme lämpimästi suositella tätä majoitusta.
We hebben ontzettend genoten van ons verblijf in het huis van Claudia.
Het is een authentiek en zeer sfeervol huis. Alles wat je nodig hebt is aanwezig.
Het uitzicht is fantastisch. Je kunt wandelend naar het dorpje waar veel gezelligheid is.
Claudia is een hartelijke hostess die je ook veel tips kan geven over de omgeving.
Na jarenlang gekampeerd te hebben was dit onze eerste ervaring om zo op vakantie te gaan en dit is uitstekend bevallen, voor herhaling vatbaar.
We kunnen dit huis echt iedereen aanraden.

Cindy, your border fabric is PERFECT! Beautiful quilt! I used a dark brown sashing and think after seeing your quilt will add it as a border. I like the way it frames the design.
Saphire Rae, I love the pink stars with your brights! Many of the fabrics in my pieced border were not in the 9 patches but they all seemed to mix in. The next one I'm going to do will be light sashing with pink stars. :-)

Has any one used/fired Russian made .45 ammo in a 1911

Has any one used/fired Russian made .45 ammo in a 1911
I've shot some Wolf ammo in 1911s in the past, never had any issues function wise but it wasn't the most accurate from a rest.
I've heard a lot of bad about Wolf, but I've put a couple of hundred rounds of their 9mm through my Glock and I haven't had any problems. I'm inclined to think there is a lot of myth and rumor out there.
Wolf gums up my 1911's quicker than most. I got a good deal on 500 a couple of years ago and am trying to get rid of it. Problem is, I think it's tough to break in a new gun with the stuff. My Kimber Pro Eclipse 2 still doesn't like it after 700 rounds but fires everything else just great. No more Wolf or any steel for me.
I went from grease to oil on slides and that seemed to help a little.
I was looking at TULA 45 ACP 230gr. FMJ ammo
I can get it at a cheap price and use it for training/practice in my 1911 & Glock 30
As for Wolf being dirty, I've found it to be no more dirty than Winchester White Box ammo. For the most part I prefer Remington UMC ammunition, I don't know why buy I always seem to turn in better scores with it than other alternatives and have no problem finding it at decent prices, granted it's not as low as the Russian stuff, but I find that it performs better in my firearms.
T-55A5, buy some small batches, test to your liking including a benchrest test for accuracy with some other ammunition and come to your own conclusion. It may suit your needs it may not but there's only one way to know for sure.
From what I've been told the steel casings are dipped to keep them from rusting over time and when heated during firing, it has been found to leave residue on barrels and has been linked to extraction problems because of that. If you're shooting through an AK, I would say fine. But when shooting through a nice 1911 I wouldn't take the risk.
I bought 500 rds of it once, it was a great price. I don't think the specs are tightly adhered to. Some of the casings seemed to be noticibly different sizes. The casings left a metallic residue behind that gumed up my magazines and caused feeding problems (the only problems I've ever had with the XD with 3,000+ rds through it). And in my opinion, the XD mags and feeding are less prone for feed issues than my springer loaded 1911. Bottom line is I was able to sucessfully shoot nearly all of it, though I had to clean my magazines a lot. I've never bought any more of it since and I wouldn't shoot it in my 1911 (it's my favorite/best shooting semi auto). CCI makes pretty cheap aluminum case .45 ACP ammo that I've never had any issues with.
i've used tula ammo in my 1911, sr9c, and m&p15 in all three there seemed to be significantly more residue left by the ammo
