Unsere Unterkunft übertraf unseren Erwartungen. Wir fanden im Droompark eine große, geräumige Ferienunterkunft vor. Die Lage der Unterkunft und die herrliche Ruhe in der Anlage haben dazu beigetragen, dass der Erholungseffekt schon am ersten Tag eintraf. Lediglich die Sauberkeit der Unterkunft bei Übernahme ist verbesserungswürdig.
חוות דעת על מקומות לינה אחרים שמציע/ה מארח/ת זה/זו
The holydays in Club Vista serena, was very nice and confortable. A value quality and price appartments, nice service. Highly recoment
nice little house in suburb of sorrento.
well equipped kitchen and cosy living room.
couldn't stay in the huge garden because of too many moskitos.
garden wasn't very clean at all.
the linen package, we extra paid for, was a joke.
The people were very friendly, the studio offered everything you needed, the bed was comfy and the location was good, just 350 m to the beach. You had your own terrace and parking lot, which was great. It is a very quiet location, good to calm down and relax. For two persons it is very big, I was scared, but of course most of people would enjoy that luxury of lots of space. The accommodation definitely is a great choice for that price!
The location of the apartment was great and the size was excellant plus with a private parking space in France unbelievable. Downside was cleaning fee per person when the floors were SO dirty that you wouldn'd want to walk on them without shoes on.
Danielle was very helpful. The house, next to her family's home was very clean and comfortable. The view of the mountains was wonderful. we highly recommend Landhaus Wegscheider to anyone interested in traveling to the Innsbruck area.
Fab apartment, fab views. All amenities on our doorstep, would highly recommend this apartment, will definitely be booking again. (unfortunately there are no English TV channels so bring a book)
Beautiful view of the Zugspitz from a private patio. Pleanty of room for two couples with 2 bedrooms. Beds very comfortable. Clean with friendly service.
A group of five girls stayed here and it was fantastic! The views were spectacular the location was spot on couldn't fault the apartment it was spotless and the finishing touch of the towels made up as swans on each bed with small toiletries was a lovely touch. We picked up the keys early from the interhome office the lady was extremely helpful. Would highly recommend we will be using this apartment again on our next visit to benidorm. Thank you
perfect!! the host were so accomodating...nice flat with a private pool...100% coming back!

Sean Hayes was born in Connecticut and relocated to Rhode Island "to become a student loan victim," he cracked when he checked in to plug the new album. East Coast lyricists like Nas and Big L first sparked his gift for gab.
"I've been writing my entire life, but I finally started to put a voice to my chicken scratch rhymes in 2006," Hayes said.
Though this is his first official solo release, Hayes has been on the scene since '09 as a founding member of the Night Enders (crew members Spoons and Hans are featured on the new album), which dropped a debut album last year titled Island of the Misfit Toys.
Hayes may have an affinity for slugging 'Gansetts and having fun with his team but, as the album title implies, he slings conscious rhymes intended to rouse the sheep.
"I wanted to make an album that had some depth and meaning," he said. "I like to refer to most of the music on the radio as 'washed-up-and-comers,' it's just so disposable and has no real substance.
"I believe it was [Austrian journalist/author] Ernst Fischer who said, 'In a decaying society, art, if it is truthful, must also reflect decay.' At the risk of sounding vain, that's what I tried to do," Hayes told me.
The messages are neither heavy-handed nor lost in the mix of eclectic beats, with six of the 12 cuts produced by multi-talented rapper/producer/MPC maestro 8th Wundah (and mastered by Vertygo at Beatbox Studio in Pawtucket). The intro gives way to the standout track "You Only Die Always (YODA)," a cynical spin on the YOLO lifestyle, as Hayes dishes the lines, "My liver loves booze that's why my organs hurt/ A river runs through it takin' morbid turns" and "Knock knockin' on heaven's door reverts from cradles to graves and storks to urns." Spoons and Hans join in on "Never Remember," and Hayes addresses drunk driving on "Wheels On the Bus." A line from "Mindfully Half Empty" reminds us that this is "a PSA to the land of the free fast-asleep."
Hayes is "dropping more stories than Tower of Terror" on "Stress Positions," and acknowledges the pain of dealing with his parents' divorce as a child on "American Adolescent." Hayes gets some all-star support from Milez Grimez, Swann Notty, 8th, and Spoons on "Lack of a Better Word," and the first single "Ocean State of the Art" is yet another locally sourced jam (see "401 Island of Rhodes" by Grimez and Meta P's "RI Reds"), with Spoons, Hayes and 8th shouting out Del's, Rocky Point, Colt State Park, and weed dispensaries: "One minute it's sunny, the next is damn showers/ A place where Narragansetts flow like clam chowder/The road to success has few a potholes/Throw your hands up, and anchors — drop those."

I have been feeding just over a qt of syrup a day since install . It is raining now and supposed to rain all day and for the next two days. I thought I read that bees don't like to be messed with in bad weather, but should I go ahead and feed them each day regardless of rain? I have an inverted qt jar in boardman feeder on inner cover and under an empty hive box, so I would be opening the outer cover to access.

MEET OUR STUDENTS: Carlos Neves: Three Wishes on an Old Photograph
Born in Brazil, Carlos Neves, an elementary education major with a Portuguese minor, immigrated to the U.S. in 1985 at the age of 21. On a trip to Disneyworld he photographed a motto that has been the foundation of his life in America ever since. The sign read: "If we can dream it, we can do it." Neves would later write three of his own aspirations on the back of the photograph: 1) to become an American citizen, 2) to become a teacher and 3) to become a father.
Neves began building a life for himself in Newark, N.J., where he worked as a busboy from 1985 to 1987. He learned English by listening to language courses on cassettes and by translating his favorite music.
"I listened to everything," he said, "Springsteen, Michael Jackson, the Bee Gees. It all helped build my vocabulary."
In 1988 Neves moved to Rhode Island and was employed as a waiter. Five years later, he enrolled at RIC. Financial difficulties arose and he was forced to put his dream of an education on hold. In 2009 he returned to RIC. By then, he had accomplished two of his dreams – he had become an American citizen in 1996, and, a year later, his son Aller was born.
Along with studying and maintaining a family, Neves volunteers for the College Crusade of RI and was recently hired as a math coach at the Segue Institute for Learning in Central Falls.
At RIC, Neves has served as secretary of the RIC Middle School Association and was a recipient of the 2013 John A. and Mary V. Lima Scholarship in Portuguese Studies. He was also inducted into the RIC Sigma Chapter of the Phi Lambda Beta Portuguese Honor Society and has donated Brazilian artifacts to Special Collections in the Adams Library.
"Carlos has been an exemplary student who brings a clear message to younger students that success is the outcome of hard work, talent and motivation," said Silvia Oliveira, assistant professor of Portuguese Studies.
In May 2014, upon graduation, Neves will check off his last dream – to become a teacher. "I haven't put my hand on the trophy yet, but it's closer than ever," he said.

When I get to the end cut I simply lower my dado blade 4 turns,( that is how many turns it takes to cut off 3/8 inch from the top finger of the long boards on my Craftsman saw) shove sled forward, flip board, slide sled forward, raise dado 4 turns and cut remainder of the box joints. Only additional setup is the time it takes to turn blade down 4 turns and then back up 4 turns.
It is a pain trying to discuss something when all we can do is describe., To bad we don't have interactive video so we could hold up a piece, or run a piece across the saw to show what we are talking about.
Anyway, thanks guys. I learn something new every day. Please don't ever take anything I say as being confrontational, I am just trying to understand. And, if there is a better way of doing it, count me in. I appreciate learning how others do it, and I like sharing what I have learned over the years with others.
How is it that I can reread something I have just typed 10 times for grammar, spelling, and typing, then hit reply, only to read my post and find 5 more errors. Good thing we have edit available. Even then I miss some.

Jeep Suspension - Four-Link LingoPosted in How To: Suspension Brakes on January 1, 2008 Comment (0)
Exclusive Jeep Tech article which looks at Jeep suspensions, and the difference between a Four-Link Suspension and a Three-Link Suspension!
n. stepping up to a whopping even number of links is the four-link suspension. With four arms (two upper and two lower), eight links, and three common ways to design it, this is harder to dial in and more common than a three-link. See also: tri*an*gu*lated four-link; dou*ble-tri*an*gu*lated four-link; four-link with pan*hard bar.
n. this is the stock type of suspension found on the front and rear of TJs and ZJs, and the front of XJs and WJs. With four parallel or near parallel links or arms, there is no way to control the lateral motion of the axle under the Jeep. A panhard or track bar is introduced to the equation to control lateral movement.
n. these are the parts that control the location and movement of most modern solid-axle rigs. Whether it's three-link or four-link, if it's got solid axles and coil springs, you'll find arms underneath it. See also: links.
n. contrary to what the name implies, adjustable brackets usually aren't adjustable at all. They are normally a piece of steel with several holes drilled through it, which provides adjustability in mounting the links. This allows adjustment of squat, anti-squat, roll center, and instant center.
n. this is not what you do when the toilet seat is cold. By drawing a line from where the tire contacts the ground through instant center, you can determine antisquat. If that line intersects a line drawn perpendicular to the front axle above the center of gravity, you've got antisquat. This is designed into the four-link by varying the length and geometry of the links.
n. an imaginary point which is stationary relative to the Jeep and has very significant value. It's the average location of the weight of the Jeep, or the point around which the Jeep will balance. If this point goes past the perimeter of the Jeep (too steep a climb, or too off camber), you will roll.
n. fancy engineering term for the frame of the Jeep. A woman with a particularly nice form could be said to have a great chassis, also.
n. the point at which the rear suspension provides lift. It contributes to your squat and antisquat. It's an imaginary point, which moves as the suspension cycles. If you extend the upper and lower links when looking at the vehicle from the side, the point at which they converge is the instant center.
n. these are the most important components to a three- or four-link suspension. Without them you'd have a three or four suspension. Just how goofy would that be? See also: arms.
n. in a typical link suspension there are upper and lower links. Because you are constrained by your chassis and axle location, the lengths of the links are often limited. You can calculate out the ideal for your situation, but often you will just be back to whatever you can make fit.
n. also known as a panhard rod or track bar, this is the common fifth link in a four-link suspension setup. In a non-triangulated four-link, it's needed to keep the axle located under the Jeep. Very common on lifted Jeeps to rip this link off the axle due to the forces involved.
n. another imaginary line. This one is the line drawn from your front roll center to the rear roll center. Inclined roll axis contribute to roll steer.
n. the imaginary point that the axle will rotate around when flexing.
n. when your axle is articulating and causing your Jeep to steer, without steering input, this is said to be roll steer. For example, in the rear axle, as the tire drops, it travels forward and inward; as it rises it travels rearward and outward. Also known as flex steer and rear steer.
n. by drawing a line from the point of tire contact with the ground through the instant center, you can also determine squat. It's not a desirable result if the line drawn intersects the line drawn from the front axle below the center of gravity because it lessens the pressure on the contact patch.
n. in this configuration, both the upper and lower links are triangulated. This helps locate the axle (without panhard bar), as well as minimize flex steer throughout the axle's range of travel.
n. as the name indicates, it's got only three links, technically. In all actuality, it's much closer to a triangulated four-link than anything else. It's just got one joint in the center of the axle for the upper links. And because the two upper links are connected using one joint, it's called a three-link This style of suspension can be found under the rear of a WJ and KJ.

A debate already has started in New York following Wednesday's news that the Jets will consider all options when it comes to cornerback Darrelle Revis' future: Should the Jets trade Revis?
There is a surprising amount of support for the idea, but that argument is missing the real story here: more Jets dysfunction. The headline of the original CBSSports.com story says it all: "Jets owner Woody Johnson to explore trading Darrelle Revis."
Apparently, Jerry Jones isn't the only owner dabbling as a general manager for his day job. This has to be troubling for Jets fans.
NFL.com's Albert Breer wrote: "Going back to discussions with general manager candidates, Jets owner Woody Johnson has expressed a need to figure out where the team is headed with Revis."

Congressional Research Service: ObamaCare will cover illegal immigrants
posted at 10:12 am on August 28, 2009 by Ed Morrissey
Mark Tapscott discovers a nugget in the analysis provided by the Congressional Research Office on HR3200, the House version of ObamaCare coming to the floor. While Barack Obama insists that the idea that ObamaCare will cover illegal immigrants is a "myth," the CRS points out that the bill does nothing to prevent it. Since HR3200 doesn't require people to establish citizenship or legal residency before applying to exchanges for health insurance, including the public option, taxpayer money will certainly flow to illegal immigrants:
In what he called the "first myth" being spread by critics of his proposal for a government-run health care system, Obama said they are wrong in claiming illegal immigrants will be covered: "That is not true. Illegal immigrants would not be covered. That idea has not even been on the table." Obama said.
Well, Mr. President, that idea must have been tucked under a stack of background briefing papers over there in the corner of the table because the Congressional Research Service (CRS) says this about H.R. 3200, the Obamacare bill approved just before the recess by the House Energy and Commerce Committee chaired by Rep. Henry Waxman, D-CA:
"Under H.R. 3200, a 'Health Insurance Exchange' would begin operation in 2013 and would offer private plans alongside a public option…H.R. 3200 does not contain any restrictions on noncitzens—whether legally or illegally present, or in the United States temporarily or permanently—participating in the Exchange."
CRS reports do not get released to the public. CRS offers private analysis to members of Congress on request, but rarely do they see the light of day. However, David Freddoso got his hands on a copy of the 11-page analysis, "Treatment of Non-Citizens in HR3200" late last night, and confirmed Tapscott's reading:
In its subsection on health insurance subsidies (known as "affordability credits"), HR 3200 does state, "Nothing in this subtitle shall allow Federal payments for affordability credits on behalf of individuals who are not lawfully present in the United States." That would seem to solve the problem, but it's more rhetoric than reality. The bill contains no verification requirement or enforcement process for citizenship or legal residency, as exists for other federal benefit programs. The only verification required for the subsidies pertains to family income. Beyond that, as the CRS report notes, everything is left in the hands of the Health Choices Commissioner.
House Democrats defeated all attempts in committee to add an enforcement mechanism that would require proof of citizenship or legal residency for those getting subsidies.
CRS also notes that "undocumented aliens" who have a "substantial presence" in the US would be required to buy health insurance (page 4) through the exchanges in HR3200. They would also become eligible for "emergency Medicaid," although not normal Medicaid (page 6) for up to five years.
What about Section 246, which I said would prevent the spending of money on illegal aliens? The CRS analysis is less than impressed with that portion of the bill. Section "246 would bar unauthorized aliens from receiving any premium or cost-sharing credit," it says, but that may be hard to enforce. It also states later that "absent of a provision in the bill specifying the verification procedure, that the Commissioner would be responsible for determining a mechanism to verify the eligibility of noncitizens for the credits" — or in other words, HR3200 fails to provide it entirely. I gave it a little too much credit, apparently, more than Congress' own analysts do.
Be sure to read it all. If Congress tells us that no money will go to cover illegal aliens, we can show them the CRS report and ask them to stop spreading myths.
Update: Congressional Research Service, not Office. Had it right in the story, not in the headline. Sorry about that!

If there's one trend that food nerds find gratifying, it's the growing popularity of the bánh mì, the Vietnamese street-food sub I've long called Boston's best cheap lunch. While fans once had to hike to Savin Hill or ferret out purveyors tucked away in odd locations (a Chinatown jewelry store, an Allston supermarket food court), the hunt is getting easier. Food-truck sensation Bon Me, for example, has hordes of downtown office workers lining up daily for its slightly bowdlerized sandwiches at the somewhat fancy price of $6. By contrast, West Roxbury's new Bánh Mì Ngon pulls no punches, topping the classic bánh mì foundation — crackly-crusted, lightly toasted baguette from a Dorchester Vietnamese bakery, pickled carrots and daikon, cucumbers, cilantro, house-made Asian mayo, and optional sliced fresh jalapeños — with unmistakable, unapologetic Vietnamese flavors.
You know you're in a traditional bánh mì shop when your protein options include fragrant sardines ($4.50), grilled patties of ground shrimp ($5.25), and the classic charcuterie assortment ($4.75) of Vietnamese-style ham, head cheese, and liver pâté. Vegetarians are well-served by options like five-spice-marinated tofu ($4.50) and a veggie-burger-like blend of tofu, shallots, and mushrooms. You can encourage your novice friends toward less-challenging toppings ($4.75) like slices of rotisserie chicken, marinated grilled beef, char-siu-like pork, or marinated grilled chicken. Familiar or no, it's hard not to adore the meatball ($4.75), which takes juicy pork meatballs, pale as milk-fed veal, and crushes them to near sloppy-joe softness — a beautiful flavor with some textural novelty. Appetizers include superb, light fresh summer rolls ($3.50) loaded with shrimp and pork, served with a good peanut/coconut dipping sauce, and crunchy fried spring rolls ($3.50) filled with ground chicken, shredded carrots, and black mushrooms, served with a sweet/tart Thai chili dip. One recurring special tops rice vermicelli with marinated/grilled chicken, pork, or beef ($6.50) with shredded lettuce, carrots, cukes, and a fried spring roll on the side, plus a sweet/sour garlic and chili dressing. Another puts rotisserie chicken atop jasmine rice ($6.50) with sides of lettuce, tomato, cucumber, and teriyaki sauce.
Drinks include the usual fierce and sweet chicory-softened espresso with sweetened condensed milk ($2 hot, $3 iced), excellent fruit/coconut-milk smoothies ($3) like a very refreshing pineapple and bracing fresh limeade ($2). Terrific house-made desserts include vanilla-coconut pudding loaded with chewy tapioca pearls ($1.50) and a loose, almost-drinkable coconut custard ($1.50). The sunny storefront has only six window-facing counter seats and one two-top, so most folks take out. In a largely residential neighborhood that suddenly has a dozen fine little indie restaurants, Bánh Mì Ngon's fresh, vibrant flavors and family-friendly prices appear to be a perfect fit.
BÁNH MÌ NGON, located at 1759 Centre Street in West Roxbury, is open Monday through Saturday, 11 am to 8 pm. Call 617.325.0946 or visit banhmingon.net.

It is getting to be time to put hives and nucs to bed for the winter here and I had a question on my nucs. I seem to remember that you could fill the division board feeders(I have two nucs in 10 frame deeps with a division board feeder to separate them) with plain granulated sugar and the bees will find the sugar later in the winter.
Is this just wishful thinking or did i actually hear/read this somewhere. I only have 7 or 8 nucs going into winter and I wanted to increase their stores somewhat. I did fall feeding but i think some additional feed may be helpful.
I may gather the nucs onto a pallet this weekend and wrap them with felt paper so it would be nice to add sugar and then wrap them up.
Any thoughts on this?

Re: Jamie at Home
In keeping with the requests of the moderators (and Jamie), whilst I didn't tape the show, the request was not to "spoil" the book by pre-publishing recipes.
All I will say is that the canneloni recipe's cheese sauce was unlike the traditional bechemel sauce you'll find with most canneloni or lasagne recipes.
No huge surprise for Jamie fans.
Whilst I loved the hand-drawn recipes, I wonder if they are the format for the book, whether:
I) They'd annoy the hell out of me when making up a shopping list;
2) Ditto as for cooking from them;
3) In a past life, I was a copy-right lawyer. The format shown on TV last night *so* reminded me of the "Moosewood" cookbooks. That shows my age but, since Jamie would have the best legal advice, I assume he's in the clear there.
Best wishes,

I'm thinking of using some upper drilled holes as the only entrance to some nuc-type starter colonies in regular hive boxes (with SBB for added ventilation).
I know lots of people advise drilling 3/4" round holes for upper hive body entrances, which can be plugged and opened according to need, with either corks or slider doors.....but
3/4" seems to me to be really large and may be hard for nucs to defend against robbing. Do others use smaller 'corking hole entrances' to advantage? How big do these holes really need to be to allow a good number of bees to go in and out as a main entrance without a huge area to guard against robbing?
Did folks arrive at 3/4" for some particular reason?
Thanks for any thoughts on this.

Touching the Clouds (Alaskan Skies Book #1) [Revell/Baker]
She went looking for adventure . . . and found more than she bargained for.
Kate Evans is an adventurous and independent young woman with a pioneering spirit. When she leaves her home in Washington State to follow her dream of being an Alaskan bush pilot, she knows it will be an uphill battle. But she never expected it to be quite like this. As the lone woman in a man's world, she finds that contending with people's expectations is almost as treacherous as navigating the wild arctic storms.
When she crosses paths with a mysterious man living alone in the forbidding wilderness, she faces a new challenge. Can Kate break through the walls he has put up around his heart? And will fear keep her from realizing her dreams?
Book 1 in the Alaskan Skies series, Touching the Clouds will draw you in with raw emotion and suspense, all against the stunning backdrop of the Alaskan wilds.

Hospital employee needs 4 more hours to qualify for insurance
Sharon Newman's son, Rylan, is terminally ill
COLUMBIA, Mo. - An employee at a local hospital is trying to find a way to gain more hours to provide health insurance to her terminally-ill son.
Rylan Newman's family recently discovered there are no other treatment options for his cancer.
His mother, Sharon, is currently working 20 hours a week at Boone Hospital Center.
According to BJC HealthCare, employees need a minimum of 24 hours to be considered full-time and qualify for health insurance through the company.
Right now, there are no plans to allow her to get the four extra hours.
Hospital officials say they changed the benefits in September. The biggest change was the hours needed to be considered a full-time employee.
Family members told ABC 17 News they have asked at least twice to get Sharon four more hours per week, but they were rejected both of those times.
They say Sharon may have to start looking for other jobs.
Family members claim the mother was told by her manager, neither the hospital nor the manager caused Rylan's cancer.
ABC 17 News was not able to confirm that with the hospital because officials would not comment on conversations between employees, but the family says there were stunned.
"She was trying to make a point that it doesn't matter what you're going through, that you are an employee and employee only and we don't care about anything that happens to you," said Mark Newman, Rylan's father.
Boone Hospital released the following statement:
"This September, Boone Hospital informed staff members about changes to the BJC HealthCare 2014 benefits package. Among those changes was a requirement that employees must work 24 hours per week to qualify for our health benefits.
Since that time, Boone Hospital leadership has worked on a one-on-one basis with impacted employees to help them retain health insurance coverage, including advising employees about health insurance options available outside our system."
The Newman family has set up a fund at Commerce Bank. Donations can be made to the "Rylan Newman Fund" at any bank location.

Easily the worst defensive unit this year. Will any of these LB's be starting next year?
Kiwi - was invisible this year at LB and most likely moves back to DE with Osi leaving
Blackburn - is a FA, and i don't he played consistency enough to warrant bringing him back. Plus, he sees himself as a starter now and i don't think he'll come back to be a backup and play special teams
Boley - his play dropped off considerably this year and I think he may get cut, not because he played poorly, but because he lost playing time towards the end of the season to Paysinger and Herzlich
Williams has good upside and I would like to see Rivers back, even though he is injury prone, and give him a chance to earn a starting spot

Last moments of King Richard III revealed - Friday, 22 March 2013
Be one of the first to discover the truth behind the headlines in a fascinating talk focused on the death of King Richard III which premieres at the Royal Armouries in Leeds on Wednesday (March 27).
Bob Woosnam-Savage, the Royal Armouries' Curator of European Edged Weapons, will provide an overview of what is currently known about the death of the Lost King of England, who died at the Battle of Bosworth in 1485.
Bob, one of the world's leading experts on medieval edged weapons, will detail how his forensic investigations helped lead an archaeological team to identify the last of the Plantagenet kings.
The audience will:
• Hear about events leading to the possible last few moments of Richard's life
• See some of the types of weapon used to kill him
• Discover the wounds inflicted on Richard's skeleton
• Learn about the five-month investigation that led to his identification
The sensational identification of Richard's skeleton in February led to headlines and media coverage around the world.
Under international academic and media scrutiny, historians and scientists spent five months testing Richard's skeleton, unearthed during an archaeological project at the former site of Greyfriars Church in Leicester – formerly hidden in an unmarked grave, below a council car park.
Bob was invited to join the Greyfriars' project by the University of Leicester and worked to help identify Richard, using his expert knowledge of medieval weapons.
Many historians believed that Richard was buried at Greyfriars after his death at the Battle of Bosworth but his corpse had been disinterred during the Dissolution. His remains had never been identified – until the historic announcement on February 4, earlier this year.
For more details about the Greyfriars project, please visit http://www2.le.ac.uk/offices/press/media-centre/richard-iii
Tickets for the talk, which starts at 6.30pm, are available, priced £5, by calling 0113 220 1888 or by visiting www.royalarmouries.org

I am new to beekeeping and I live in Kenya so my conditions are probably different to most. However, we've had rains and it is our swarming season at the moment. We recently transferred a small colony from an old Kenya Top Bar Hive into a new one and after a week they were moved to a new location. The colony has been in situ for about a month during which time I did one inspection. The other day the colony swarmed and my first impression is that they were absconding for some reason. Shortly after they clustered it rained and they flew back into the hive and the following morning I opened the hive to find out if I could find any reason for them to abscond. As I said it's still a small nuc they have only 5 bars occupied, I found plenty of capped and uncapped brood, there is still lots of space in empty comb cells, they have good pollen stores and recently made comb seems to be full of honey but not capped yet. I found the remains of and old queen cell in the centre of a comb but with my inexperience I was unable to locate a queen. Later that day they swarmed again but the hive is still occupied so they have not absconded.
Can anyone perhaps shed some light as to possibly why such a small colony would choose to divide when all the reasons I've read about i.e. overcrowded, lack of space for queen to lay eggs, lack of stores seem not to be the case?

Creating a healthy, safe, and visually appealing environment is always conducive to a fun place to play, a good learning environment, or a better community to live in. Often overlooked in contributing to a municipality's overall objectives, a grounds management operation is critical in accomplishing a community's long-range goals.
Listen To The People
It is vital that public works officials work with their grounds manager when developing long-term goals for the grounds operation. However, when it comes to formalizing such goals, the community's voice should speak the loudest. Your grounds operation's long-term goals should be determined by the end users. Their feedback should be combined with input from grounds management staff to determine if these wants and needs are a workable fit within the constraints of your budget.
Kevin O'Donnell, former president of the Professional Grounds Management Society, has served as a grounds management professional in the public sector for several years and says the first step to creating a long-range grounds strategy is to evaluate your community's needs. He suggests conducting a citizen survey. Another tip he offers is to examine demographics. Does your city or county have a declining school enrollment? If so, adding new sports fields and playgrounds is probably not a priority. However, adding walking paths for an aging community may be what your municipality really needs.
Maintenance Vs. Management
A key component in setting and meeting strategic goals for a grounds operation is understanding the difference between maintenance and management. Grounds maintenance is charged with the day-today upkeep of a facility's landscaped and paved areas, so they are viable and usable in the future. Going beyond maintenance, a public works department also should have a strong grounds management function that advises decision-makers of the costs of maintaining such facilities before they are built.
"This factor is where some municipalities really get into trouble," says O'Donnell. "For instance, they determine that they need a new multi-purpose recreational area and do a great job raising funds for its construction, but run into trouble because they didn't take into account the budget implications of maintaining the site. A lot of times this happens because the organization doesn't have a grounds manager on staff or didn't take their consultation into proper consideration."
Education Is The Key
You should maintain full lines of communication with your grounds department and with the public via community groups. This involves having your grounds department educating your customers on what costs go into maintaining a facility or site.
For instance, maybe your city has a beautiful meadow that gets mowed once a month. Perhaps community members think it would be simple to turn this open meadow into a useable practice or playing field by increasing mowing to a weekly basis. What they aren't taking into account is that in addition to increased mowing hours, this will also require more equipment and additional maintenance such as aerating, fertilizing, leveling the field, and adding soil amendments.
Whether you oversee a small township or an urban landscape, meeting your citizenry's recreational needs is becoming increasingly important. In order to meet these needs it is vital that you listen to your community and enlist a highly trained grounds management staff to meet community needs and educate constituents on the real costs of grounds maintenance.
— Eric Grammer is the communications manager for the Professional Grounds Maintenance Society, headquartered in Baltimore.

Good start to the Tournament of Stars today. Couldn't ask for better weather in N.C. in June.
There will be lots of stuff in a post later, but the day finished up w/ PONY vs. Stars. The game dragged a bit, but had interesting arms.
liked Jake Latz, 6-2, 185-pound LHP from Lemont (Ill.) High. LSU signee sat around 87. Easy delivery. Low 70s CB, flashed sharpness.
Do you think PM will give "loyalty" and guarantee Mcmullen an outfield spot? Seems like wasted defense with all that talent back there. Not that I'm saying Mcmullen is bad in OF...just that we have a lot of potential there. If Stevenson is a dead bat again next year I'd like to see him stay on the bench and try someone else. Put Laird at CF.
Chinea is going to play 1B for his summer team. Is he a better fit there, or is he still supposed to be in the running for the C spot?
1. McMullen
2. Laird
3. Bregman
4. Ibarra
5. Moore
6. DeHart(as either DH or RF)
7. Ross
8. 2B Spot reserved for JaCoCo replacement
9. Stevenson
With Rhymes, Katz, Ross, and Jones leaving, I think you're losing much more than offensive and defensive production. They were your leaders. Nola, by himself (even without Cotton), can solidify a staff that will see a few guys taking on different roles, but who will be those every-day guys who lead this team next year? I know you're mostly a personnel evaluator, but can you provide any insight into this?

text: I am saddened by Shaq and Wade's marriage trouble. I just wonder how much does personal issues such as divorce, family illness, etc. affect the play on the court. Shaq has always been known as a womanizer and phony, but Wade has been portrayed as a religious family man. Professional athletes should stay single as long as possible. Too many temptations. The Heat's roster is full of holes and now the two most important players are going through breakups and the media hasn't even gotten started. I didn't know anything about Wade's extra-marital plays until I read it yesterday on ybf.com.

.My stay in Köln was very confortable. The appartment has all you need for a daily uses and all in condicion working. The temperature, condition of the interior house are very good and confortable.
The public transportation (metro) is perct at no more than 100 m. From the appartment.
The public transportation (metro) is perct at no more than 100 m. rom the appartment.
Comments to Arndt, to improve in the future : the internet hasn't the capability of use FaceTime or other image apps because the configuration router or firewall had disabled the functions. Would be much better if enabling those functionalities.
Other pont is about the cleaning of all the appartment.
I finded parts in which the cleaning was no good, for instance in the kitchen area with rest of oil or simply dirty utensils. Must be care this point, please.
The rest was vy good.
First time in Cologne and first time have used Wimdu for accommodation, very satisfied with both.
The apartment was as described, very clean, spacious and was very comfortable.
We were 2 adults sharing and had one bedroom each. The apartment was really well equipped and would be ideal for a family.
Location of the apartment was very convenient for access to city centre via trams, tram stop 200mtrs away.
The communication between myself and the owner of the apt' Arndt and Mrs Brungs was excellent and nothing was too much trouble.
Can highly recommend and would definitely use both Arndt and Wimdu again.
This is a great apartment - nicely decorated, well equipped and very clean. The nearest tram stop is 2 mins away and the centre of Cologne is a 20 min journey. There is an Aldi supermarket a 5-7 min walk away. No problem in meeting up with the housekeeper to get the keys. All very good.
There is everything you need in this nice appartment, close to downtown in 15 minutes with U train. We had perfect communication with the hosts, PRIMA !!
Schöne saubere Wohnung. Alles da was man braucht. Einziges Manko die Wohnung hat keine Rollläden und auch keine Übergardienen. Daher ist es nicht möglich die Wohnung im Sommer kühl zu halten.

So, so nice... Amazing as always you little paint guru... :)
So jealous :)
I'm drooling waiting for your next update! Seriously, I hope you pat yourself on the back 'cause this is awesome!
I'm in that point in which superjedi will surprise me only if he will do an average paint job... I will never see that day!
I already said it, but I love your professional way of painting and each new post of you is funny, refreshing and informative. Thanks for doing this for us!
I enjoy doing progress threads. To me it's part of the process, where I can sit
back and get an overview of the helmet as it comes along. I've seen things in
my own pictures that made me go back and make some tweaks here and there.
UPDATE: January 19, 2013
Mandible-ness! :) The mandibles are a key part of the helmet. These are
the areas that frame Fett's "face" and just like when you look at a person, it's
one of the first areas that draw the eye when looking at someone in costume.
I take a lot of care with the sizes/shapes/proportions of the damage
on the mandibles. The left side has very specific patterns (just like the rest
of the helmet), but not nearly as complex as the right mandible.
There are still a couple of final details that aren't on there yet. Such as the
little tan "drips" and the small brighter red chips. But those will come once I
go back and do my final sweep before the clear coat.
Also keep in mind that this is the screen-used version of the helmet. There's
some extra damage that is seen on the exhibit photos that wasn't present
during filming, so I'm not adding it to Scott's helmet.
Getting pretty close now!
UPDATE: January 20, 2013
Whew. . . right mandible is done!
I did this area in several sittings to save my eyeballs from melting. :lol
This was done with the same color palette used on the rest of the red areas: SP Lark Dk Gray,
Bright Silver, and PRR Maroon.
A couple of other details on the above photo. I added the contrasting pale gray color on some of the silver, and
I did the upper ear base with Polly Scale Earth. Finally, I did that dark greasy stain over the RF ear with Tarnished Black.
This means that all the "basic" painting is complete! I'm still waiting for the aluminum ears, and I won't do
the tan spatter until the ears are in place. Next up is some pastel application on the lower cheeks and the
area around the dent, and just a touch on the right rear panel.
Once the pastels are done I'll give the entire helmet a coat of Krylon clear matte finish to seal everything.
The final steps will be the tan spatter (once the ears are done), the thumbprints, and the brownish
grease stains on the rear half of the helmet. So close now! :thumbsup
Lovely job Sir, perfect edges to the detail which makes all the difference to the overall feel...
Thanks, Garrett. I find this to be one of the greatest advantages of a topical paint job.
Whenever I use masking fluid on the rear panels, I always find that I need to do minor
touch-ups after removing the mask. Maybe I just don't have the right tools, but I can
never seem to get all the intricate shapes exactly right when using a layered technique.
I mentioned in another thread that when I delivered Shabad's PP2, I got to see one of
your ESB helmets up close. You certainly seem to have conquered the layered method!
That thing is just amazing.
(Minor update: The pastels and clear coat have been applied to the helmet. :))
superjedi just AMAZING, I love all the details in your works, you become in master piece, thanks for show us this helmet.
I just can't over the detail here! Looks great!
Thanks, guys! It's getting there. . .
UPDATE: January 24, 2013
OK, had some good light this afternoon and I set up the helmet in a better
location than sitting in front of our DVD collection. :lol
The helmet itself is complete now, except for the tan spatter. Here are a
few pics showing an overall look.
The front left view above shows the pastel weathering around the dent, as well as
on the lower left cheek. The white thumbprints are also visible from this angle.
The opposing front angle. It's hard to capture with my camera, but I attempted
to show some of the subtle color variation in the dome/cheek green. I used a
multi-step process of darker and then lighter mixtures of the base color.
The left rear angle shows the thumbprints again, as well as some of those
brownish grease stains. It also shows how the silver can still appear fairly
bright even though the helmet has been misted with Testors dull coat.
The right rear angle shows more of those greasy stains and the overall detail
of this section.
Finally, a close-up of the rear of the dome and part of the rear panels. The
grease stains are visible here as well. The very fine scratches look even finer once
the airbrush toning is complete.
So there she sits! I'm still waiting on the arrival of the aluminum ears, but once they
get here, I'll post some more progress as I paint them. Hope you like it, Scott!
Looking great Eric. Am I right in saying the powder streaks from the dent going towards the back of the helmet appear darker on the helmet during its screen use? As though they have been partially rubbed off by handling over the years as now seen in the exhibit pictures...
That's an excellent question, Garrett. There's so much that has happened to that
poor hero ESB helmet over the years.
What I try to do when I weather my helmets and armor, is to approximate the level
of contrast that I see against the base color. I know that's subject to
interpretation. It's the "eye of the beholder" factor. One person may say, "Well I can
barely make out that streak/splotch/mark/etc." While someone else will say, "Oh yeah
I can see it plain as day."
For the dent streaks in particular, I view them as having a good amount of visual
contrast from the background green. This is one of the clearest HD screen shots I have
in my picture collection. Here, I've thrown a similar view of Scott's helmet in there as well.
If you try to ignore the obvious differences in color due to the screen shot being lit for
filming, as well as color-timed, then further processed for transfer to digital media, I tried
to hit the right level of contrast. Some may say I did, and some may say otherwise. :)
Pastels are also like any other media that's applied to a curved surface. Its appearance will
change depending on the angle and level of lighting. If you look at the streaks at an
oblique 90° angle, they'll appear darker than if you view them from a shallower angle.
Thanks for the detailed explanation Eric, very interesting. This is the shot i had in mind of the ESB helmet during filming illustrating how i imagine the powder burn to have looked at that time.
Oh and sorry to go off on a tangent in your thread Eric, (but you may like this) but i have a theory that the main mandible and trim dark red isn't the colour it appears to be. It only appears to be that colour because it is layered on top of the purple/maroon colour, as illustrated in this picture of the PP3. Bottom right hand corner, the red is on top of the purple and silver and changes colour accordingly...
Superb Eric - I think you've captured the tone of the powder burns very nicely. The grease stains that you added look fantastic - I wad more under the impression that they were part of the 'extra stuffs' that the AOSW version had, and didn't appear on the hero helmet, but with fairly limited resource pics avail, and the fact it all looks superb anyway, it really isn't a huge issue. Bravo on the lid my friend! :)
I tend to go with Garrett line of thinking that the silver layer at least seems layered in that PP3 pic :)
Eric, that helmet is a pure beauty! You did a great job!
Here is a comparison image between the ESB Hero and the ESB C-IV helmet:
Attachment 66829
I did a bit of color correction of the ESB Hero helmet to match up the ESB C-IV colors. Although the burnt dent look darker in the Hero image, it's kind of hard to tell for sure because the different lighting and the grainy Hero image, but as already said, the miss-handling for over 30 years might be a great explanation of the color fading.
As for the Pre-Pro #3 helmet, looking at some of the close-ups from the Gallery, it looks that most of the colors were layered on the mandible/brow/around ear/rear keyhole area and partially topical on the back rim area, and only the silver on the back plates and the dome/cheeks. But the paint job is so cleverly and professionally made that is hard to see some of the differences. It is possible that this helmet was also painted by Joe Johnston (it looks close in technique to the helmet painted by him for the 'As You Wish' project) and I think that the ESB helmet was not his work.
Off Topic
That red shade noticed by TF is close to the left ear's red (which was painted later by Joe) and it looks like a touch-up of some areas:
Attachment 66830
Notice that the dark brown shows those touch-ups too, and some of these 'repairs' are present on the dome too, mainly around the killstripes:
Attachment 66831
But the brighter red appears else where on the PP3 in and around the silver damage and most noticeably also on the ESB hero on the complicated right hand mandible area?

Arsène Wenger expects John Terry to be at his best on Saturday despite any off-the-field concerns.
The Football Association has announced it will investigate claims that the Chelsea captain abused Queen's Park Rangers defender Anton Ferdinand at Loftus Road last weekend but Wenger is sure that won't affect his performance when Arsenal visit Stamford Bridge.
"It depends always on the mental strength of the player," said the Frenchman. "You have some players who cannot focus any more but for some players it's a good opportunity to forget about off-the-pitch problems.
"I have had both kinds of players. I had players who when they had these kind of problems they were better on the pitch than before, and I had players who couldn't play at all.
"I would rather place Terry in the second category but he does well under pressure."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source
