I'm sure many of you have seen this already. In fact, I'm sort of counting on it.
Does anyone know what that bubble actually is?
Closest thing I've been able to come up with is that its a skylight dome. In fact, it looks very much like the dome found here, although they don't list prices for just the dome (or even if they sell them separately), and the only ones I can find for sale online are much too small for this (only 10 inch diameter).
I'd love to try building one of these for next year if I can find the parts.
Looks like its just the dome, probably using a piece of plywood cut to fit into the rim there with was on the underside to give them a place to attach to, and I'd want to add a covered exit for them on top (a small exhaust cover should work) and some handles to make lifting the top off easier.
Probably need to drill a few holes around the bottom for ventilation and moisture drainage...
Or maybe deviate from this design a bit and put a dowel going down the middle to support a "landing bay" at the bottom. Cut out a circle from the bottom and add a PVC pipe with a wooden base and add an entrance cut into it. That way dead bees would fall, slide down the sides, and fall into the "cup" next to the entrance where they would be easier for the bees to push the rest of the way out.
Then could just add a hole in the top for a normal mason jar feeder and a few ventilation holes around the base of the dome (under the lip there to prevent rain from getting into it), and done.

Yes, looks like the stamping machine misfired:>
Whatever??the numbers, that is one beautiful Red Eye, all cleaned up and in beautiful shape.
Beautiful machine, enjoy and lets see the other one too.
Oh, my, what a beauty!
I had hoped to see a lot more chatter about this serial number on a Singer Model 66. I guess everyone is just slack-jawed like me. I don't know what to make of it either, except to remind Gail that she may have a real rarity there, or at the least an oddity, and that she would be wise to hang on to it.
When I reviewed the "G" serial number chart, I couldn't explain away the serial number at all. I can't see a shadow of a partial letter ahead of the multiple-stamped digits, but if there was a "G" under the first "8" (G89955), the number was supposed to be assigned to a 1910 Model 15. If the "G" was missing from in front of the first "8" (G889955), the number was supposed to be assigned to a 1910 Model 27. To go a bit further, since we can see the 889955, and speculate that the "G" had been omitted ahead of the visible numbers, and that 3 of those "8" numbers count (G8889955), that number was supposed to have been assigned to a 1921 Model 66. When I went through the rest of the available charts for other single leading letters, I didn't find another combination that could work, if the first "8" is stamped over the single letter.
So it seems that it may or may not be simply a missing or covered "G". The machine is not one of the earlier Model 66 machines, because it has a side-mount foot (that could have been changed along the line somewhere), and it has a hand crank boss on the pillar (that very doubtfully could have been changed along the line somewhere).
With those features in mind, I would suggest that the machine was made sometime after 1912, and sometime before 1925, so the G8889955 could actually work. But wouldn't it be a kick if that machine was a prototype for the change-over to the Model 66 casting with the hand crank boss on it? Could the casting for the original machine 889955 (Model 27) have gotten damaged during production and discarded, so then the number was used for an experimental casting of the "new & improved" Model 66 casting?
WOW! What a great mystery! Thanks for sharing with us Gail!
CD in Oklahoma
Holy Cow! You really did some research on it. I wonder if it would be worth writing the Singer Company to see if they could shed some light. I know that the Singer Featherweights have two badge numbers. One visible and one hidden under the column of the machine. I had hoped that maybe this machine had something similar.
I think I will try writing Singer and see if they can help with this mystery. I snagged this machine on eBay for $105. I used esnipe to get it to. I wondered if I had paid too much but given the condition of the machine, I have no regrets.

1. How is it strange? The players in the huddle pep talk each other all the time.
2. I literally JUST SAID that the giants never beat good teams. But if would listen, you'd know the 9ers haven't either. This doesn't make the giants better. It just puts them on equal footing(especially now that all the injured are back).
3. Last time I checked the giants won a blowout to the panthers away with nothing more than cruz,barden, and brown. Now we have Bradshaw, Nicks, and the rest back.
4. What did the 9ers look like last year? Oh right they looked like a team with a QB who couldn't throw at anything and a punt returner who fumbled when a fly landed on the ball. The 9ers today look like a team that beat the bills and jets. Not that impressive.

TVA watching levels at South Holston
SULLIVAN COUNTY, Tenn. - We've certainly had a lot of rain lately, which means lake levels are above average.
Officials with the Tennessee Valley Authority are trying to control flooding.
News 5 stopped by South Holston Lake where TVA officials tell us while this lake didn't get as much rain as Watauga, levels are one foot above normal.
To prevent flooding they're releasing a million gallons of water per minute, generating electricity in the process. "We're doing that in a controlled fashion for the recreation people to come fish at the same time [while we] move water out of South Holston and recover that space," said Chuck Bach, General Manager for River Scheduling at TVA.
TVA officials say by generating this amount of electricity from the excess water, power rates could be much lower by mid-summer.

I have a confession. I have to blame the Carnival Triumph cruise ship situation for this product review. Pictures from the passengers' ordeals were circulating around the web, and this particular one caught my attention. Passengers were desperately trying to keep in touch with their loved ones and were working hard to milk every ounce of power available to keep their cell phones charged. There were accounts on the news of friends and family on the mainland receiving erratic texts from the passengers, and how valuable those little tidbits of information were.
Similar accounts circulated after Superstorm Sandy's and Hurricane Katrina's devastations.
In a day and age where texting, Tweeting and other forms of micro-blogging are the standard, it's now expected for people to be well-connected, and sometimes we take for granted that a critical part of that is having enough battery power.
This is where solar device chargers can really come in handy: so long as there's sunlight, you can keep your cell phone charged. This can be absolutely critical when it comes to disaster preparedness, as folks along Tornado Alley and the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts of the United States can attest.
The last solar device chargers I reviewed were the Etón FRX-2 and FRX-3 devices, which were extremely weak when it came to providing device power and were clearly for emergencies only. The focus of the solar panels in both systems were to power the emergency radio and flashlight; the USB device charger was a bonus capability.
On the other hand, the Solar JOOS Orange system is meant not just for emergencies, but is marketed as a must-have piece of equipment for any tasks that take you away from electricity: boating, camping, and backcountry adventuring.

Paychex Up 4%: FYQ3 Beats, Raises Year Profit View
Shares of payroll processing firm Paychex (PAYX) are up $1.83, or 4.4%, at $43.75, in late trading, after the company this afternoon reported fiscal Q3 revenue and earnings per share that beat consensus expectations, and raised its forecast the full year's profit.
Revenue in the three months ended in February rose 5%, year over year, to $636.5 million, yielding EPS of 44 cents.
Analysts had been modeling $629 million and 42 cents.
CEO Martin Mucci said the company was "pleased" with its progress in the quarter, commenting:
Payroll service revenue growth continued to advance, led by core payroll results, while Human Resource Services revenue benefited from demand for our human resource outsourcing solutions. We continued to experience good new business revenue growth, particularly in core payroll and Paychex HR Solutions. Product investment in our software-as-a-service solutions and mobility applications continued with new product releases that position us for long-term growth, while we maintained strong operating margins.
The total revenue figure includes $626 million of service revenue, up 7%, plus $10.5 million in interest on funds held for clients, down 3%. That compares to analysts' estimates for $618 million in service revenue and $10 million in interest.
For the full year, the company sees service revenue rising 5% to 6%, which is roughly in line with expectations on the Street for growth of 3.7% in payroll service revenue and 11% in human resources service revenue, according to data provided by Factset.
Net income is expected to rise 9% to 10%, That is up from a prior forecast of 8% to 9% growth, offered back on December 19th, and above consensus for an 8% increase.

Webcast: Pen Testing Ninjitsu III with Ed Skoudis: After the Initial Compromise
In the real world, attackers don't stop once a low-level machine is compromised – and neither should your security tests. Once they're in, attackers are going to try to find their way to your organization's most
sensitive data – so it's critical for you to proactively assess how your security infrastructure will respond after they kick-in your virtual front door.
Please join Ed Skoudis, SANS instructor and co-founder of Intelguardians, for the third installment of his Penetration Testing Ninjitsu webcast series: "Pen Testing Ninjitsu III: After the Initial Compromise"
> Register here: http://www.coresecurity.com/Form/generi ... /ninjitsu3
During this webcast, Skoudis will look at how to take the next step in real-world security testing once you gain initial command-shell access on a target machine.
You'll learn how to:
* assess your readiness against threats that compromise Windows boxes and turn them against backend infrastructure
* use built-in Windows command-line tools to make a wireless war driving instrument that can discover vulnerable wireless LANs
* leverage Windows command-line tools to formulate HTTP requests that test web server security
This installment will explore what can happen after the initial vulnerability is compromised and a threat becomes truly invasive – and how to proactively assess your systems against such attacks. To top it off,
the expert will discuss how all of the techniques covered in this trilogy of webcasts can be pulled together into a multistaged penetration test.
If tihs is anything like the previous 2, it should be great,

OSCP - Time Commitment Required
I am looking to take OSCP - PWB Starting late Dec. and I think i am going to do the 60 or 90 day course. The one thing that i see may be a issue is i work full time. and in Jan i will be starting my masters. I will be taking 1 class (most likely web app development. or programming java). Think i will be able to spend 2 hours for OSCP and 2 hours for School (more on weekends). I was looking for input from people who took this course how much time daily did you spend on this course. Does it take all of your time? Will Web App Devl Class help with anything in the course (web attacks).
Also to let you know. I am a Network Security Analyst who uses alot of tools on bt5 and knows python,I also have my GCIA, GCIH, GPEN and will have my GWAPT before i start this course which means i will have a good base knowledge and things will come easier.
Any input on if this, good or bad idea would be great! i figure i was going to take 2 MS Classes but instead i was to substitute one with PWB.
Thanks in advance!

The apartment is really clean, in a good position near to metro and tram, the kitchen has all the things that we need and szabolcs was perfect and totally available. If we will return in Budapest we for sure will return in this apartment, thanks Szabolcs ;)
I had the pleasure of staying in Szabolcs apartment in Budapest, and it was absolutely wonderful! Szabolcs received me and explained everything from the keys to the washing machine, to the map and all the 'must see, not to be missed' spots. The apartment was perfect. Clean, wonderfully situated, very close to public transport points, quiet, functional and perfect in every way. Highly recommended!
We had a great time staying in Szabolcs apartment. The place was clean and sufficient, the location was close to everything and still very quiet and peaceful eventhough it was so close to the busy night scene. Szabolcs was a perfect host, very friendly, reliable and extremely helpful with giving directions, restaurants ect. A had a fantastic stay, our first in Budapest. I'll definantely recommend Szabolcs. Thanks so much for your hospitality.
Are you looking for a nice and well furnished apartment which is located in a quiet place but in the heart of Budapest with walking distance to restaurants, pubs, night clubs and shopping malls then DON'T look any further.
It was my second tme that I was staying at this apartment and I must say it again, it's the BEST and as always Szabolcs, the host is a nice guy.
Thanks tor having me again.
Regards Henry.
It was the best apartment of 3 towns that we had time to visit and 4 apartments, where we stayed (by the way, these apartments also were the most budget on our trip) Clean, comfortable, great location, right next street office bus tour and attractions within walking distance availability. Special thanks to the owner for the warm welcome, help us in finding the right places and shops. Highly recommended!
Beautiful apartment, minutes away from the metro and trams etc.
Everything you would want in the apartment - comfortable bed, storage space, kitchen appliances.
Thanks Szabolcs
A very clean ,safe and functional apartment in a quiet area
All appliances and facilities in excellent working order
In our opinion could only enhance by putting a few pictures/mirror in main room or photos of Budapest sights maybe poster map of city on wall and a small chair or box to put clothes on whilst in shower
Lots of info books and leaflets provided and was only a short walk to many of the main sights, shops, markets ,restaurants
I have been to Budapest several times thus stayed in many different apartments and to tell you the truth there is nothing like Szabolcs' apartment. It simply beats them all. The apartment is fresh and newly renovated so it consists of a modern kitchen as well as the birth room. The bedroom is big and pretty furnished. The apartment has fast internet connection through wifi and is located in a very strategic place I terms of transportation.
I really loved this place and enjoyed myself as well as the Szabolcs good hospitality and would definitely recommend it to my friends.
Thanks again Szabolcs.
We had a wonderful time in Budapest thanks to the great location of the apartment! It was very easy to reach the best sights in the city. Szabolcs is an excellent host, very helpful, gave us a city map and showed us the area around the apartment and the apartment itself. We got a little lost when we arrived in Budapest and he helped us to find the correct adress. The apartment is very well equipped, big, warm and cosy! It was also very clean! the wifi works perfectly and is very fast. we found everything we needed to have a pleasant and comfortable stay. We definitely recommend it!

Dutch Anti-Islam Film Site Taken Down by U.S. Service Provider

The video and the site sparked a large protest Saturday in Amsterdam.
(Source: Fred Ernst / AP)
Dutch filmmaker Geert Wilders faced with possible removal by his ISP may seek possible alternate distribution means for his radical film
The Netherlands is becoming the surprising center of conflict over the extent of free speech, religion and allegations of racism. The debate centers around an upcoming film by a local politician, which expresses strong criticism against Islam faith.
Several Islamic government have sought to ban materials criticizing Islam. The most recent example of this was when
Pakistan blocked the website YouTube
for promoting non-Islamic or anti-Islamic materials,
inadvertently crippled the country's internet traffic
Nearby Denmark found itself in the center of a similar controversy when a Danish newspaper aired cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad, the most important Islamic historic religious figure, in an embarrassing light. The cartoon led to protests worldwide outside Dutch embassies, death threats and at least one murder.
Now Holland is back in the limelight. Dutch lawmaker Geert Wilders, head of a reactionary party which controls 9 seats in the 150-seat Dutch Parliament, promoted his new film which portrays Islam in an extremely critical light, only to find his website taken down amid a storm of criticism. The film was promoted on the site which formerly had a simple title image, the words "Fitna" ("Coming Soon"), and an image of a gilded Qu'ran.
website has since been taken down
, and a note is posted stating that Network Solutions, the U.S. based service provider, is investigating whether the site violates its terms of service. The note about Wilder's site states, "Network Solutions has received a number of complaints regarding this site that are under investigation."
Network Solutions hosts the website of Hezbollah, a Lebanon-based organization labeled by the U.S. government as a terrorist organization.
While the company could not be reached for comment, its terms of service do include a broad provision banning, "objectionable material of any kind or nature." While the former website gave scant details about the upcoming 15-minute film, to be released on March 31st, it is certain to be found objectionable by some. Filmmaker Wilders says the film will underscore his belief that the Islamic holy book is "fascist."
Wilders prepared to distribute the video over the internet after being met with refusal from television stations unwilling to grant it airtime. Wilders, who lives under police protection due to death threats, refuses to be deterred, and was quoted Dutch news agency
on Saturday stating, "How many ways are there left for me to be worked against? If necessary, I'll go hand out DVDs personally on the Dam." The Dam is a colloquial name for Amsterdam's central square.
On Saturday protesters crowded the Dam to voice their distaste for Wilders. Amid sleet and heavy wind, between 2,000 and 3,000 protesters of mixed ethnicities assembled "Netherlands Shows Its Colors" in an advanced reaction against the film. Protesters carried signs such as "Standing Together Against the Right-Wing Populist Witch-Hunt."
One protester, Elisa Trepp, said, "I'm very much against Geert Wilders and racism in general. I think it's really important to show not only Holland but the rest of the world that there's a lot of people who do not agree with his ideas."
Hassan Iaeti, another demonstrator, traveled for hours to make it. He states, "The government could really do something. That's in the interest of the country - stop him, just stop him."
Dutch officials fear that the film may spark violent protests worldwide. Free speech in the U.S. is currently solely limited against making statements that would incite imminent lawless action (riots) as defined by the case Brandeburg v. Ohio. Similar limits to free speech exist throughout much of Europe, much to the chagrin of free speech advocates. As the video may spark worldwide lawlessness, the government may see it fit to block the video.
However the government remains relatively apathetic to the situation by all indications. No prominent politicians showed up at the protest. Prime Minister Jan Peter Balkenende has said previously that he did not agree with Wilders views, but supported his right to free speech. Balkenende did add that the video could threaten Dutch interests worldwide.
In Afghanistan protesters burned effigies of Wilders and demanded the withdraw of NATO-deployed Dutch troops from the country. A Dutch court will hear complaints against the film lodged by Muslim groups, on March 28th, however Wilders can elect to release the film before then.
"Then they pop up and say 'Hello, surprise! Give us your money or we will shut you down!' Screw them. Seriously, screw them. You can quote me on that." -- Newegg Chief Legal Officer Lee Cheng referencing patent trolls

The northside was once a fashionable area, but it lost some charm as it decayed in the 20th century. Happily, it is now rebounding with high-profile hotels, plenty of shops, and a few top-rated restaurants.
Starting in south Dublin, stroll down Parliament Street through Temple Bar to the River Liffey, then take a right, and walk along the noisy, vibrant waterfront to the narrow arc of the (1) Ha'penny Bridge. The city's oldest walking bridge, it's so charming that people will go half a mile out of their way just to walk across it. Though officially named the Liffey Bridge, it's far better known by the halfpenny toll once charged to cross it. The fee was dropped in 1919, but the nickname remains.
Once you've made it across, you're on the (2) North Quays, an increasingly trendy area with hotels, bars, and clubs. The quays are a really a series of streets named for the wharves that once stood at the water's edge.
You can either explore the quays a bit—head right a few blocks to see the moving memorial to the Irish potato famine—or walk straight up busy O'Connell Street. Grafton Street is where the tourists shop; this is where the locals go. It's lined with workaday department stores and useful boutiques. The center of the wide boulevard is filled with statues and memorials, many commemorating the city's troubled past and confounding politics. The (3) line-up of statuary starts with an ornate version of the politician Daniel O'Connell surrounded by angels (one of which still has bullet holes left from the Easter Rising), and culminates at the (4) Millennium Spire, a shard of steel thrusting hundreds of feet up into the air.
About half-way up O'Connell, you'll reach the stern gray edifice of the (5) General Post Office (www.anpost.ie). It's still an operating post office, but it's much more than that. This is where the 1916 Easter Rising began. Prolonged, heated battles were fought in and around this building, and the columns out front still have bullet holes. An original copy of the Proclamation of the Irish Republic is still kept inside, in the philatelic office.
After exploring its displays, head farther up to where O'Connell Street ends. Keep walking a block on to leafy (6) Parnell Square. On the far side of the square, the (7) Dublin Writers Museum (18 Parnell Square; www.writersmuseum.com) holds court. If you're a bookish type, you'll be drawn to its extensive display of literary memorabilia—the typewriters, playbills, and handwritten letters explore the history of Dublin's love of letters
A few doors down from the writers museum stands the small but mighty (8) Hugh Lane Gallery (Parnell Square North; www.hughlane.ie). Inside the collection of Impressionists work is excellent. As you wander around you can marvel that such a strong collection of masterpieces was ever owned by just one man.
Backtrack down O'Connell to the (9) Gresham Hotel (23 Upper O'Connell Street; www.gresham-hotels.com), where the vast lobby is a great place for a warming cup of tea.

Dressed in baggy jeans, a hoodie, and a "do-rag," Adolph Brown saunters into the cafeteria of Point-o-View Elementary in Virginia Beach, picking his way past the third-, fourth- and fifth-graders seated on the floor.
Some look quizzically at the stranger, but most are glued to Principal Edward Timlin, who excitedly tells the students they are in for a rare treat -- a nationally renowned consultant and Virginia Beach native is there to talk to them about bullying. He then introduces a nattily dressed man, patiently perched on a stool behind him, as the day's speaker.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute," Brown yells. "I think I'm in the wrong place."
Fact No. 1: Brown is a jokester, and this is a favorite prank he plays with his assistant, Jawanza Sabir, the well-dressed man who often impersonates Brown at presentations. The elaborate ruse is designed to grab the audience's attention. And based on the transfixed looks of the students, it worked.
But was it meaningful? Did it make a difference in what students learned that day, or will they just remember the trick?
Those are fair questions, especially in an era where youth spend more time consuming entertainment media than they do in the classroom. It also is a vexing problem for schools which must compete with a constant stream of media-rich, multisensory stimuli to capture students' attention. In the quest for student performance, teachers are becoming performers.
To be fair, teaching always has had an element of performance art. Think back to a favorite teacher, and it's probably someone with a dynamic personality, a gift for gab, and a knack for making even the most mundane activity intriguing. That's why the concept of edutainment -- the merging of education and entertainment -- has become so popular.
You can't blame schools for wanting to capitalize on the same strategies and tools that keep students online and engaged for hours on end. But what can you really teach a child about the French Revolution in a three-minute video? Is style overwhelming substance?

You couldn't dream up a more Shakespearean setting than the romantic house, built in 1887 and outfitted with floral décor. The B&B is well-versed in country hospitality and boasts a porch swing, outdoor hot tub, and collection of more than 2,000 DVDs—needless to say, you won't need to use iambic pentameter to enjoy an inspired night in the Wine, Cabin Retreat, or Rose Room.

Medication Guide For Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDS)
(See the end of this Medication Guide for a list of prescription NSAID medicines)
What is the most important information I should know about medications called Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs )?
NSAID medicines may increase the chance of a heart attack or stroke that can lead to death. This chance increases:
- with longer use of NSAID medicinces
- in people who have heart disease
NSAID medicine should never be used right before or after a heart surgery called a "coronary artery bypass graft (CABG)."
NSAID medicines can cause ulcers and bleeding in the stomach and intestines at any time during treatment. Ulcers and bleeding:
- can happen without warning symptoms
- may cause death
The chance of a person getting an ulcer or bleeding increases with:
- taking medicines called "corticosteroids" and "anticoagulants"
- longer use
- smoking
- drinking alcohol
- older age
- having poor health
NSAID medicines should only be used:
- exactly as prescribed
- at the lowest dose possible for your treatment
- for the shortest time needed
What are Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs )?
NSAID medicines are used to treat pain and redness, swelling and heat (inflammation) from medical conditions such as:
- different types of arthritis
- menstrual cramps and other types of short-term pain
Who should not take a Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAID)?
Do not take an NSAID medicine:
- if you had an asthma attack, hives, or other allergic reaction with aspirin or any other NSAID medicine
- for pain right before or after heart bypass surgery
Tell your healthcare provider:
- about all of your medical conditions.
- about all of the medicines you take. NSAIDs and some other medicines can interact with each other and cause serious side effects. Keep a list of your medicines to show to your healthcare provider and pharmacist.
- if you are pregnant. NSAID medicines should not be used by pregnant women late in their pregnancy.
- if you are breastfeeding. Talk to your doctor.
What are the possible side effects of Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs )?
|Serious Side effects include:
|Other side effects include:
Get emergency help right away if you have any of the following symptoms :
- shortness of breath or trouble breathing
- chest pain
- weakness in one part or side of your body
- slurred speech
- swelling of the face or throat
Stop your NSAID medicine and call your healthcare provider right away if you have any of the following symptoms :
- nausea
- more tired or weaker than usual
- itching
- your skin or eyes look yellow
- stomach pain
- flu-like symptoms
- vomit blood
- there is blood in your bowel movement or it is black and sticky like tar
- unusual weight gain
- skin rash or blisters with fever
- swelling of the arms and legs, hands and feet
These are not all the side effects with NSAID medicines. Talk to your healthcare provider or pharmacist for more information about NSAID medicines.
Other information about Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs )
- Aspirin is an NSAID medicine but it does not increase the chance of a heart attack. Aspirin can cause bleeding in the brain, stomach, and intestines. Aspirin can also cause ulcers in the stomach and intestines.
- Some of these NSAID medicines are sold in lower doses without a prescription (over-the-counter). Talk to your healthcare provider before using over-the-counter NSAIDs for more than 10 days.
