Jerry (Matt1954) was kind enough to let me tag along with him on his trip to move his hives. The video diary of our four-day trip is located here:
Thanks for making the video available. We have a forecast high of -2F on Monday. Warm bee-work, even testy bee-work, looks good to me. Although I wonder if your buddy might need some better screens.
Very cool thanks for sharing. I plan on making my first trip to the groves this year too. I'm a little bit nervous.
John, this was my first trip into the groves as well. And many times, experience is the teacher. I can say I learned an awful lot on this trip of things I should and should not do.
Hey Matt, where's your chain binders to hold that tractor to the trailer? You guys are a lot braver than me.
I see so many things in that video that are wrong.......I don't even know where to begin. Lack of smoke... tarp....daylight moving with warm temps....no running vehicle keeping vibration on loaded bees while unloading........screening while flying.....breaking apart boxes before moving<-----Thats just a start
Leer Family Honey Farm-Shannon Leer
Not trying to pick on you Matt but this could be a way to teach others lacking experience what not to do.
Leer Family Honey Farm-Shannon Leer
Shannon, thanks for your comments. As you know, things happen unexpectedly. We were using smoke, we did have tarps, and some of the hives did come apart when we hit one of the trees going into the orchard. Life is an imperfect world.
The bloom you showed is just a shock bloom the bees wont do anything with it ,you are going to want to feed your bees at least thru the first part of Feb. Also you are going in a little early ,make sure with the caretaker that they are done spraying for greening, if they are spraying by air it could do some damage to the hives.
Clear Lake Wi. / Sebring Fl.
Thanks Trevor. All of the colonies that are active had two full deeps with significant amounts of capped honey that will get them through the next few weeks. We have already addressed the spraying and are good to go.
Mark Berninghausen
Hey Mark, when we went down in October we did stop at the AG Station and had our paperwork from Florida in advance. It was a straight shot down 95. No stops at weigh stations on 95.
Stops for fuel? Lose many bees?
Mark Berninghausen
We of course stopped for fuel and it was very cold out at that time so I did not lose many bees. Once we arrived at destination in Florida the bees became very active. I noticed some swarming almost immediately upon arrival, so I guess I should say that we did lose a few bees.
Matt, OMG, didn't know you really lost the tractor on the way back home. Feel bad for you guys. Maybe you can buy a skid steer with the insurance money.
Lost the tractor? Where did you read that?
Mark Berninghausen
See, In the Orange Groves post, 1/17/2013
Is that a different Thread?

Donal O'Shea is Elizabeth T. Kennan professor of mathematics at Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley, Massachusetts. His most recent book is The Poincaré Conjecture: In Search of the Shape of the Universe (Walker, 2007).
Could you tell us a bit about yourself?
I am the eldest of three children. I grew up in Canada with parents who had emigrated from Ireland after marrying. As a teenager, I was especially interested in science and mathematics. I wound up pursuing mathematics because it seemed to underlie so much and because courses in it did not require lab work. After undergraduate work at Harvard, I returned to Canada for graduate training at Queen's University. I met my wife, Mary, while in graduate school, had two children, took a job as an assistant professor of mathematics at Mount Holyoke College, had another two children, and have, except for frequent leaves, been there ever since. For the last nine years I've been the dean of faculty at Mount Holyoke, which has been fascinating. The oldest women's college in the world, Mount Holyoke is a member of the Five College consortium of western Massachusetts, has a rich mathematical and scientific tradition and has an extraordinarily strong and scholarly faculty.
What books are you currently reading (or have you just finished reading) for your work or for pleasure? Why did you choose them, and what do you think of them?
Two weeks ago, I finished re-reading Lucio Russo's The Forgotten Revolution: How Science Was Born in 300 B.C. and Why It Had to Be Reborn (Springer, 2004). Initially published in Italian, this book received a lovely translation into English in 2004. Russo argues persuasively that science was first discovered in Alexandria and then forgotten until the Renaissance. It is bold, broad-ranging, very scholarly and sure to be very controversial.
While on a long drive, I listened to the audiotape of What Paul Meant, by Greg Wills (Viking, 2006). This short book points out that the letters of Paul were written before the gospels and thus are, in many ways, the most authentic accounts of the early years of Christianity.
I also finished Blank Verse, by Robert Shaw (Ohio University Press, 2007). I started reading the book because Shaw is a professor of poetry at Mount Holyoke, where I am the dean. I quickly became hooked. The book begins hilariously by contrasting a murder scene rendered in blank verse with one in free verse. It goes on to examine the uses of blank verse as opposed to other verse forms. It was a whole new world for me: I didn't know that blank verse was quite constrained (unrhymed iambic pentameter), or even different from free verse, say.
I'm nearly finished with Thomas Friedman's The World Is Flat (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2005). My curiosity was aroused by a recent conference I attended in which it was quoted by two different speakers to support two conflicting educational policies.
The two most recent fiction books I've read are Rebecca Goldstein's The Mind-Body Problem (Random House, 1983) and John Sandford's Broken Prey (G. P. Putnam's Sons, 2005). I had picked up Goldstein's book in a used-book shop. It is a hilarious first-person account of an outspoken, free-spirited Orthodox Jewish woman who marries a self-centered mathematical genius. It apparently created a splash 20 years ago and is simply wonderful. Sandford's book is one of the John Davenport series and is serious escapism.
I've just begun Lisa Randall's book Warped Passages: Unravelling the Mysteries of the Universe's Hidden Dimensions (Ecco, 2005).
When and where do you usually read (specific location, time of day, etc.)?
I usually read at night before going to bed, and I read compulsively on planes, in airports and in hotels. When I was younger and spent the evenings working on mathematics, I had to read in order to sleep. To this day, thinking about a mathematics problem before going to bed will keep me awake. Of course, I would often get involved in the book I was reading and find it impossible to put down. As I've gotten older, this has been less of a problem.
Who are your favorite writers (fiction, nonfiction or poetry)? Why?
In mathematics, I will read anything that John Milnor or Jean-Pierre Serre writes. The care and the spareness of their writing especially appeal to me. My favorite popular science and mathematics writers are Keith Devlin, Ian Stewart and Steven Pinker. In fiction, I especially like Georges Simenon, P. D. James and Dick Francis. I go on binges every time I read a fiction book I enjoy by an author I haven't read, buying all of his or her work and reading it all in a single vacation. My favorite past binges were Ursula Le Guin, Dorothy Sayers, Toni Morrison, Marion Zimmer Bradley and Margaret Atwood. I have bought books for future Octavia Butler, Robertson Davies and Gregory Benford binges and have been trying not to get into them. My favorite poets are Joseph Brodsky and Seamus Heaney.
What are the three best books you've ever read? Explain.
Aargh. My answer would keep changing. Since I seldom reread books, I tried thinking about books to which I return on a regular basis. Three nonfiction books include W. Strunk and E. B. White, The Elements of Style (1959); A. N. Whitehead, The Aims of Education (1929); and J. Milnor, Topology From the Differentiable Viewpoint (University Press of Virginia, 1965). The first has been instrumental in shaping my own prose preferences, and I find inspiring the way that the style of the sentences illustrates the points the authors make. Whitehead's book is the most thoughtful collection of essays on education that I have ever read. Milnor's book is a close-to-perfect little gem. It explains some beautiful mathematical theorems in a few short pages. Not one word is out of place. I pick it up once a year or so. I almost never re-read fiction, but four books that I have reread with pleasure are Le Guin's The Left Hand of Darkness (Walker, 1969), Graham Greene's The Power and the Glory (1940), H. E. Bates's Fair Stood the Wind for France (1944) and Brad Leithauser's Darlington's Fall: A Novel in Verse (Knopf, 2002). All these books, even Greene's, leave me with a profound sense of hope in the human enterprise.
What book has influenced you most? Explain how.
This, again, is a function of age. I've mentioned Strunk and White, which has had the greatest effect on my writing. John Milnor's Singular Points of Complex Hypersurfaces (Princeton University Press, 1968) is a beautiful, exceedingly elegant treatment of the unusual topology that one finds near singular points. It fired my imagination as a graduate student and had a huge influence on my mathematical taste and career. When I was very young, I stumbled across a copy of E. T. Bell's Men of Mathematics (1937). I was entranced by the author's romantic (and often overdrawn) accounts of mathematicians' lives. Before reading this, I had no idea that there was any serious work done in mathematics. Finally, Ivan Illich's Deschooling Society (Harper & Row, 1971) had a powerful effect on my teaching. As a dean, I have been influenced by Jim Collins's book Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap and Others Don't (HarperBusiness, 2001) and the accompanying monograph on social sectors.
Name three books you want to read but haven't gotten to yet.
The next three nonfiction books on my reading list are Niall Ferguson's The War of the World: Twentieth-Century Conflict and the Descent of the West (Penguin, 2006), Stephen O'Shea's Sea of Faith: Islam and Christianity in the Medieval Modern World (Profile, 2006) and Jared Diamond's Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed (Viking, 2005).
What book recommendations do you have for young readers?
I would recommend anything by Madeleine L'Engle. Her book A Wrinkle in Time (Ariel, 1962) is one of my favorite books of all time.
What science book recommendations do you have for nonscientists?
There are many. But my favorites would include Jeff Weeks's The Shape of Space (Dekker, 1985), James Gleick's Chaos: Making a New Science (Viking, 1987), Steven Pinker's The Language Instinct (Morrow, 1994), Brian Greene's The Elegant Universe (W. W. Norton, 1999) and Matt Ridley's The Genome: The Autobiography of a Species in 23 Chapters (HarperCollins, 1999).
Name one book in your discipline that you would recommend for scientists outside your field. Explain your choice.
Here again I have two recommendations, and I cannot decide between them, because they are very different and would appeal to different persons. John Derbyshire's Prime Obsession: Bernhard Riemann and the Greatest Unsolved Problem in Mathematics (Joseph Henry Press, 2003) is a fabulous book accessible to anyone with a little calculus. What is so interesting is that the author, who is a superb writer and who is not a professional mathematician, exhibits precisely the curiosity that one finds in mathematicians. He tries things and he takes readers along with him. It is fascinating. A very different book, requiring more mathematical background, but nothing that most scientists would not have, is T. W. Körner's book Fourier Analysis (Cambridge University Press, 1988). Each chapter in the book is a miniature essay, some more mathematical than others, but each one lovely and unexpected. The chapters interact in a lovely way. The book itself is a metaphor for mathematics: Something seemingly narrow turns out to be related to everything else.

Giorgio Petrosyan vs. Ole Laursen, March 2 In Italy
- Written by Rian Scalia
There have been some rumors of Giorgio Petrosyan fighting on New Year's Eve on the big GLORY/DREAM card, but now we've just learned of a fight for "The Doctor" that is scheduled for next year.
Petrosyan will fight Ole Laursen, current OneFC MMA fighter who fought numerous times in K-1, with the likes of Buakaw Por. Pramuk, Masato and Andy Souwer. Laursen posted a promotional poster for the fight on his Facebook.
The fight takes place on March 2 in Trieste, Italy, which is quite close to Petrosyan's home of Gorizia. The fight takes place at the Palatrieste, which holds up to about 7000 people.
Petrosyan recently won the GLORY 3 Rome Final 8, where he defeated Ky Hollenbeck, Davit Kiria and Robin van Roosmalen in one night to capture the $300 000 prize. Laursen most recently fought on March 31, where he won a split decision over Eduard Folayang in MMA at OneFC 3.
No further details on the card are available, but we'll keep you posted.

I don't think that "conservative" versus
"experimental" approaches can be linked to
age alone, but older hobby beekeepers do
tend to be like older farmers in general,
which is to say "slow to change".
Here's a trick - look for someone who is
at least trying something made of plastic
or styrofoam. If they won't even TRY
something "new", something that is being
pushed in all the catalogs, this means that
they are just plain "set in their ways".
If they have tried "plastic stuff", this
would indicate that they have an open mind.
Given that the typical hobby beekeeper
used to keep bees for about 7 years,
and now the average is only 5 years,
finding anyone who has been keeping bees
for longer is rare enough to make their
views of great value, even if they are
unwilling to "experiment" with "new"
(My source for the "years" is the very
exhaustive surveys of the readers of
"Bee Culture" magazine, surveys that have
been done for over a decade in their current
"everything, including shoe size" format.)
Most beekeepers don't even START keeping
bees until they retire. I'm 45, but I'm still nearly the youngest (known) beekeeper
for roughly 50 miles in all directions.
I learned a lot from older guys. My pitch
was "I'll do the heavy lifting if you will
do the talking." Worked for me, but I don't
blindly trust any one person's views any
more than I would blindly trust any one book.
...and don't get me started about the internet. You can't blindly trust
ANYTHING you read on the internet.
Including this posting. http://www.beesource.com/ubb/smile.gif

The United States Embassy in Liberia congratulates the Government of Liberia on signing an agreement with Chevron Corporation on August 27, 2010 for exploration of three oil blocks in Liberian waters.
This is only the first step in a process, however, as the Liberian Legislature must, as required by Liberian law, examine and then ratify the agreement for it to come into effect. If approved, this three-year exploration project is expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2010 and has a potential worth of US$10 billion. This agreement would create jobs for Liberians, increase the national income and help develop other sectors of the economy.

That is a good question! I'm not sure. In a conventional trap out it would take more than a month before the hive is depleted.
That is a good question! I'm not sure. In a conventional trap out it would take more than a month before the hive is depleted.
i busted them down first into two five frame nucs, found the queen and killed her, and made sure there were no queen cells.
i went back a week later and killed the queen cells they had made.
got two new queens, which were accepted, and both nucs turned into pretty good colonies.
i'm guessing that your new queen was replaced by the mean bees with one of their own.
journaling the growth of a treatment free apiary started in 2010. 20+/- hives
The AHB genetics are a part of our area (per Texas A&M). They typically don't dominate quickly hence the advice to requeen frequently. Many areas of Texas are moving back into severe to extreme drought conditions which gives the foragers little to do but hang out & intimidate intruders. I have a hive that has become very hot & will requeen in early May. I use a combination of light smoke when looking for the queen & sugar syrup which helps to keep the bees on the comb a little subdued while working them but they are still pretty rough.
John, I heard from the weather news that this year's drought is worse than last year in Texas
esp. in the central regions running north to south. I am not sure if your area has
lots of rains this year. I already planted pollen and nectar plants for them all season
long just in case. We are up to 100 also every summer. Anything will help them going when in a dearth, right.
I set up 2 hives in 07 & the on & off drought has only yielded two small harvests which is no big deal compared to the damage to the trees & wildfires. We're in a significant rain deficit now but because of the cool weather it hasn't been that damaging. Some rain passed through yesterday & some more forecast tomorrow so we'll see. I planted some ball clover about 4 yrs ago & had one good spring bloom & planted some vitex but it did not make it. When I first bought the rural property 12 years ago it rained so much that I was complaining to a local & his response was that the "old-timers" never complain about the rain. I am now that "old-timer" & I am not going to complain until the water gets above my nose.
>It doesn't matter what kind they are. If you feel they are too hot you should try and requeen.
Exactly. It doesn't matter if you're in Anchorage Alaska and the odds of them being AHB are almost nonexistent, requeen them.
>Mr. Bush has a post on his website about requeening hot hives.
Michael Bush bushfarms.com/bees.htm "Everything works if you let it." ThePracticalBeekeeper.com 42y 40h 39yTF
I have a hive that has just passed my tolerance threshold. They follow us 100 yards back to the house. They attack our housemates (who should be free of alarm pheromone) 200 feet from the hive if they are angry after an inspection. I've been told hot bees are more productive so was going to give these a shot but they are strange buggers that put all of their resources into making bees and produce no surplus honey. We gave them a super and they're filling it with pollen. Did an artificial swarm split yesterday as they had 10 capped swarm cells and were ready to fly. Will be requeening both halves...
>. I've been told hot bees are more productive so was going to give these a shot
I think hot bees that are more productive are just robbers. I see no connection between productivity and lack of civility...
Michael Bush bushfarms.com/bees.htm "Everything works if you let it." ThePracticalBeekeeper.com 42y 40h 39yTF
My bees went into winter last fall year and were very very docile. I opened my hive on a very nice weekend about a week ago and it was like a totally different colony. IN MY FACE MEAN!! They have a great strength and quantity to them and I believe that they will need to be split this spring. Does anyone know what could be causing the severe aggression? I hope I'm not Queenless or africanized. it was about 65 degrees out & calm the day I opened it up, with plenty of food stores left. Has anyone else had the same problem?
Strike one, could be just a bad day. Strike two, starting to look like a hot hive. Strike three, re-queen.
Maybe I missed it, but are you using smoke?
Honey Badger Don't Care ಠ_ಠ ~=[,,_,,]:3
Yes, I use smoke and they were still very agitated. Thanks for the replies. I hope it was just a bad day like Ross said. but I'm not sure. Thanks -Ryan
I read here that "he had to smoke them off his face". Well the smoke should be used to settle the hive not to clear his face. Smoke, in my yard takes some time to affect the bees. At first they will buzz loudly and blow the smoke out of the hive. Wait 5, or ten, then move calmly. First, why all this inspecting?
I have a cutout, well it is a swarm that had a 10 comb nest, and the combs got pretty well beat up with the capture and rubber banding and placing in a hive body. They have a very messy home. Maybe over the next three years I'll replace the crooked comb one at a time. Maybe not, they seem happy with it so I'll let them be bees. I did look up the queen and saw she was laying a good pattern.
Get screened inner covers, that way you can remove the outer cover and not get hit with hot bees, Same with the entry, keep it small to restrict robbing and mass attack if they are hot. With the outer top off try to smoke them down in the frames, Use a spray bottle with sugar water, Don't lift that screen until you have calmed the hive. Just don't! Slowly slide the screen off. If you cannot calm them this way get a new queen.
My 2 cents.

Here's a new article on CCD. I thought it was rather well written
Here's a new article on CCD. I thought it was rather well written
I'd like to see the assumptions and the spreadsheet that produced that nonsense. One could just as easily proclaim that the loss of honeybees will result in a "potential" multi-billion dollar windfall to growers simply because of the laws of supply and demand.And jars of honey, of course, would become golden heirlooms to pass along to the grandkids. (Used for millennia as a wound dressing, honey contains potent antimicrobial compounds that enable it to last for decades in sealed containers.)
In late June, U.S. Agriculture Secretary Mike Johanns starkly warned that "if left unchecked, CCD has the potential to cause a $15 billion direct loss of crop production and $75 billion in indirect losses."
Thanks for posting it. The guy can write. I know Dennis and I had a good laugh at the picture of him. Why does every writer seem to think it's interesting to describe his appearance. When you read these articles don't forget who they were written for--the general public.
For those of you that missed it, see my article on CCD which appeared in ABJ in April. It's on this site under Point of View. (POV).
Dick Marron
nicely written article .... thanks panhandle.
coyote sezs:
I'd like to see the assumptions and the spreadsheet that produced that nonsense.
tecumseh replies:
well the spead sheet would not be that difficult to construct coyote... just list all the crops that require pollination via the honeybee and elimate these from the usda crop report and your job is done.
then coyote adds:
One could just as easily proclaim that the loss of honeybees will result in a "potential" multi-billion dollar windfall to growers simply because of the laws of supply and demand.
tecumseh retorts:
now please don't tell me you slept thru economics l02 coyote, or that your dog ate your economics homework? with falling (or rising) price whether total returns rise or falls is a function of the cross elasticities (relative slopes) of the supply and demand function. now I would have to look it up... but I do seem to recall that this is the bases of what an economist would classify as a criterion for what fell into the general classification as an inferior or a superior good.
These type articles would do much if they went beyond the self serving described "box" that they usually are confined too.
There is no connection made between the plight of the honeybee and the average homeowner. Articles usually mention the poor beekeeper being effected, how the food industry may be effected, and so on.
But if were going to mention pesticides, why not remind the public about the "perfect lawn" mentality and the billions sold in pesticides for home use. Or that consumers dictate the chemical use on large farms by the way we all want picture perfect fruits and vegetables.
I know many farmers who don't use honeybees. They rely on beneficial insects. And I know very little(or none, other then beekeepers) ) backyard gardens that have honeybees. The average homeowner also uses beneficial insects, has good yields in the garden, and may not connect the dots. And for others, mentioning the loss of the honeybee, is questionable since they realize many people fed themselves on crops long before the honey bee was introduced to the U.S., or maintained by large commercial beekeepers of today. The connection between the honeybee and the benefical insects should be a must in educating the public.
It needs to be real for the public to believe. And talking about doomsday four years out, people starving, and other doom and gloom mentions, are not being taken serious by many. Will food prices go up due to lower crop yield, Yes. Will the backyard garden see the impact of the loss of beneficial insects, Yes.
Unfortunately, using terms like "nonsense" is not limited to beesource when viewing articles such as this.
I think we are missing something in having these article not connect the dots and go one step further.
Overall, the story is written nicely. It should of been one of the better ones anyhow. Afterall, it has 6 months of other articles to base some style and content on. Rather late to the party however. I liked the almost humerous comments on each individual. I know I can't wait to call Dennis..."strapping!"
But for me, the article is just a rehash of the many already written, with little additional substance and little value for education. These article have to be more than just bringing to light the plight of unknown people, and mentioning cliche sayings. They need to educate the public, and suggest how one may make a difference. Many are willing to help and make that difference, if given solid facts and suggestions based on commonsense and logic.
I have to disagree with you on this one Bjorn. Articles just like this do the job of educating the public. You are a beekeeper and have lots of direct experience to draw on. Joe Q. Public does not. Even if it is a rehash of previous info, it puts a public face on the problem. Unfortunately, the best we can hope for is that the government finally takes a "throw money at the problem" attitude. That won't do much for the average beekeeper.
Is it crisis time for the beekeeping industry? No, not yet. Beekeepers will recover.
What if it happens again this fall? Crisis time for sure because lots of beekeepers will exit stage left because of the financial devastation.
The reality here is that we need something to "fix" the ccd problem and we need it fast. It would help a lot we could breed a resistant bee. That is improbable because our bees are already trying to adapt to a one-two knockout combo of tracheal and varroa mites. Throw ccd into the mix and its "strike 3 you're out" for many beekeepers.

Did I actually say that these pieces do not educate the public? I think what I said is that perhaps we could be better served taking it a bit further than claims of "nonsense". Anyways, I'm trying to improve or make suggestions of how the public and beekeeping may improve upon this problem, and your content with this as the best we can do. I personally always hate to see this attitude.
So what is this public face you speak of? Can you enlighten upon this public face a bit, and is there even any support coming from this? I'll suggest that the public face is not worth a dang as it stands now. And the complete snub from the politicians in funding only shows this. Where's the public support, where's the outcry from food industries such as almonds, apples, and such. The ship is slowing passing us by. And now you suggest that articles just like this educate the public. True I suppose. But for one to be happy with the results and be complacent with it as good as it is, is a sad thing.
You suggest based on my overview of this article that "we need something to "fix" the ccd problem and we need it fast". Going well so far is it? I suggest that connecting the dots to the public, additional education beyond the same article thats been circulating for months now, and going a step further would be something to consider. But you shoot that down and suggest its as good as it gets. Well yes then! I agree. Its as good as it will get with atitudes like yours.
Lets see where that public support is. Lets see where that federal funding is. Lets see one more article and be happy where the road is going. Sorry, I think much more can be gleaned from going a little further then the articles and support generated thus far.
"the best we can hope for...."
Thats where I differ. I don't think the best we can hope for is goverment "throwing money" at the problem. If it does, so be it. But to suggest that this is the best we can do is your suggestion....is something I hope that other beekeepers are not happy as taking as a stance.
Much can be taken from this CCD thing beyond goverment "throwing money" and suggesting thats th best we can hope for. Public education, making the public aware of the individual impacts that they have in relationship with the beekeeper and enviroment, getting more into beekeeping, among other things could be helpful. But all these things are overlooked in such articles.
And so it goes.....

Lets assume that this piece "educates" the public. Most articles that educate also seek change, support, or in some way motivate the reader to act upon the information in some manner.
Lets see. What does this article ask the reader to do? What does it suggest that the public can do to help....
"So what to do in light of this new, unsolved, and probably ongoing threat to our food supply? Don't panic. But do take time to slowly savor your next sweet, spicy slice of cantaloupe, watermelon, apple, peach, or pear."
There you have it! As good as it gets. What a great article......
Yellow journalism. I particularily like the "can suddenly swarm on you like something out of Hitchcock" phrase. I have a vision of bees like in "The Birds"...
Also, "Honeybees also pollinate alfalfa used to feed livestock, so meat and milk would get dearer as well. Ditto for farmed catfish, which are fed alfalfa too." Of course, the author must understand that we farmers don't need pollination in alfalfa in order for us to harvest the hay - in fact we don't allow the alfalfa to get too far into the bloom stage for maximum protein development. Sure, pollination must occur for seed production, as we will need to replant waning fields in 4-5 years. But, other beneficial pollinators are ready to step up to the plate for this pollination. Additionally, I believe that corn, wheat and soy based meals are used primarily in farm-raised catfish - I haven't heard about alfalfa's role in fish food.
I think that prices for food might increase more based on grains being diverted for ethanol production, and not as livestock feed because of the high petroleum prices increasing demand for ethanol. You can see that the price of meat, eggs and milk (cheese) have increased in the past year because of some competition for biofuel production. But, I think that we also have to consider that we are on a global market situation here - we import vast amounts of fruits and vegetables for example from Chile. Is CCD rampant in South America?
If we are so concerned by rising costs for food "pricey as sumptuous old wine" as this jourmnalistic masterpiece indicates, perhaps we should understand that Americans' proportion of income that goes towards food is lower than either Canada and Mexico. It would be much lower if we didn't "dine on the go". On average, we spend 1/2 our food dollar on food away from home.
"While CCD isn't likely to obliterate honeybees, it may wipe out enough migratory beekeepers to precipitate a pollination crisis." Certainly there will (and has been?) a downswing in pollinating services. But, demand dictates a need, supply dictates an increased cost of providing the service, so understandably there will be commercial beekeepers who will be willing to provide that service, with financial gain.
I think that many might feel that this article is well-written because it "sounds the alarm" (actually used in this article). Sure, we should be concerned about CCD, but as I have said in the past, perhaps CCD is a serious matter, perhaps not - we will need to see what researchers might determine before we get our undies in a bunch. Sensationalistic, "doomsday" articles always get their group of followers - I'd rather read about the situation, and what in greater detail has and is being determined regarding CCD than have to go through the laborious reading of "fluff", with no substance within the piece.
"tecumseh replies:
well the spead sheet would not be that difficult to construct coyote... just list all the crops that require pollination via the honeybee and elimate these from the usda crop report and your job is done."
Well, your job might be done but the methodology and results are both still bogus. I'm sticking with Calderone, who produced the 2000 report that I'm guessing the USDA managed to extrapolate into the $75 Billion dollar figure. I don't see anything in his update to indicate the dollar losses would even come close to that amount. If bees contribute $8b-$12b per year to agriculture, I can't see how their loss would create $90b (15 direct + 75 indirect) in losses.

tecumseh replies:
well your accounting background is showing coyote.. not that this is a bad thing coyote, it simply does not reveal the total economic picture of what this kind of structural change would involve in terms of total $ impact. let me just fill in a few blanks for ya' bro.
first off evenything generated in this fashion is an ESTIMATE. there are hard numbers that back up these estimates, which if you have nothing to do in your life can be examined, cross examined, criticized and recorrect with another ESTIMATE. much like the insurance industry (statistically based) these ESTIMATES of value have been honed so long there accuracy is quite amazing.
really the part that you seem to be overlooking is called a multiplier by economist types... that is you take an ESTIMATE of physical production (total $) and you expand this using the proper multiplier. for many agricultural product a good number to use is $7.50 per dollar of product produced. which can be viewed as total dollar of economic activity generated via a dollar of product (via the product traveling thru so many hands*).
hopefully your political leanings are not rubbing off on you ability to understand these kinds of things... just repeat after me... I am NOT a free electron bouncing off the inside of a vacume tube.
or you can consider this analogy.... our economic system is much like a engine with lots of gears and cams that keeps everything working along together. now what exactly happens (total dollar effect) when the gear strips or the cam jumps time.. what is the effect on the operation of the engine? the total effet (total dollars) on the engine goes well beyond the cam's operation... think inconvience, towing fee, storage,etc. some newer engines may even provide a better analogy since some newer engines when the engine jumps time you can toss out that engine and go find yourself a new one.... or so my mechanic buddy tell me.
*back to politics... this is also the little fly in the ointment that most folks that push for a value added tax really either do not understand or hope you don't understand.
Well said Bjornbee about personal responsibility and connecting the dots to see the big picture.
Much reporting on catastrophe is prone to let you sit back and watch the world go down the tubes while whitewashing things individuals can do. I guess that cuts down on readership to put a mirror on the page.
French individuals including beekeepers managed to focus attention on imidaclorprid and limit its use. Seems America would have learned the lesson on the wanton use of persistent pesticides. I'm not doubting that a virus will end up being a contributer to CCD, but there is a bigger problem with pollinating insects in general, and pesticides and habitat loss (colony homes and forage) clearly play a roll.
I do think the posted article was pretty good though and certainly better than no article about bees at all, but it does have the common thread Bjornbee points out.

Fine. Let's use the magic multiplier effect, the USDA estimate of $90,000,000,000 in potential direct and indirect monetary losses, the USDA estimate of 2,392,000 colonies in the US, the economic theory that the free market will arrive at a fair market value for goods and services, superior goods, inferior goods, Giffen goods, substitute goods (there ain't any substitutes for honeybees in this scenario),etc., and work backwards to arrive at the value of a colony of bees. Then we can apply a little more eKonomiKs and arrive at a market rate for pollination services. (Of course, they're just estimates...)that is you take an ESTIMATE of physical production (total $) and you expand this using the proper multiplier. for many agricultural product a good number to use is $7.50 per dollar of product produced. which can be viewed as total dollar of economic activity generated via a dollar of product (via the product traveling thru so many hands*).
$90,000,000,000 / 2,392,000 = $37,625 economic impact per colony
Now, someone 'splain how an economic input that generates $37k in economic gain is only worth $150 tops to the market. And that's GROSS. Heaven only knows what the net to the poor pollinator is. Something is askew. Either the $90B is bogus, or pollinators ain't getting anything close to what their service is worth. You do the math and let us know which.
(And I wasn't asleep in eKon 101. The tear gas from the National Guard, the constant aroma of burning herb, the nekkid coeds, the dogs fighting in the lecture hall, etc. just made it hard to concentrate way back then...)

The dinosaurs of the entertainment world (i.e., Hollywood movie studios and national music companies) have joined with the Business Software Alliance (which represents tech giants such as Apple, Microsoft, and Intel) to sponsor an insidious piece of legislation called the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA).
SOPA is now winding its way through the corrupt and brain-dead halls of Congress. If enacted, it could usher in an era of corporate Web censorship that some experts say would be as draconian as the state-sponsored censorship practiced in China.
Copyright infringement and piracy is a real problem that endangers the livelihood of many artists, writers, and musicians by cutting into their fairly earned royalties. It deserves a real solution. SOPA isn't it. Under the guise of protecting intellectual-property rights, which indeed can be put at risk by new technologies, the bill would, with no judicial review, create a blacklist of sites that would be barred from online search engines, ad servers, and other supports. It would also reverse current practice and allow sites that briefly and unknowingly hosted protected material to be sued, even if those sites acted responsibly in rectifying unintentional posting errors.
Not surprising, companies such as Yahoo, Google, Facebook, Twitter, eBay, and LinkedIn have banded together to stop this dangerous development.
Nonprofit Mozilla, which has dedicated itself to keeping the Web open and accessible to all, has also joined the fight. Its brief official statement reads: "Mozilla wants to ensure that this legislation does not jeopardize the foundational structure of the Internet." Fight the one percent who wish to strangle Internet access for the remaining 99 percent of us. Go to mozilla.org and enroll in the online campaign to short-circuit SOPA.
Over the past several days, often vicious and brutal police attacks were unleashed across the country upon peaceful Occupy protesters. The order to beat the Occupiers, the permission to mace or pepper-spray the protesters, came from the cops's political overlords, who dispatched their will with a sly wink or an imperceptible nod.
Billionaire New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg deserves to be given our Mayor Richard Daley Memorial Medal for vile and offensive police conduct by ranks under his command. (Named after the mayor of Chicago who unleashed a police riot upon the anti-war demonstrators protesting at the 1968 Democratic Convention, the distinction goes to political leaders who show real flair and cruelty in suppressing legitimate populist outrage and dissent.)
New York novelist Michael Greenberg, who clearly has spent much time among the Occupiers, has published what is perhaps the most thoughtful and complete account of the Zuccotti Park attack and its aftermath in the blog at the New York Review of Books. Read it at nyrb.com.
Most of the news pages of this issue of the Phoenix are taken up with our coast-to-coast reports on the attacks on Occupy. One startling conclusion shines clear in all of this coverage: if Occupy is as ineffectual as so many critics claim, why is the establishment so afraid? Why the blood? Why the clubs? Why the pepper spray?
It's because the organized political power structure is hanging on only by the tips of their well-manicured fingertips. In the immortal words of Jack Nicholson, they can't handle the truth. So they lash out. It's as simple as that.

For ccwc -- if the first question out of your mouth is "how much do you charge?" then you deserve whatever level of incompetence you end up with. Why don't you ask things like how long have you been in business? Are you available year round? Have you even had any ethics violations? How many hours of education do you get every year? Are you an enrolled agent or do you just hang out your shingle to do taxes?

The 'new' Syrian media law is nothing new
On August 28, President Bashar al-Assad approved a new media law that purportedly upholds freedom of expression and bans the arrest of journalists. Yet less than a week later, on Saturday, a Syrian journalist and contributor to the pan-Arab daily Al-Hayat was arrested, CPJ reported. Just two days before the endorsement of the law, Syrian cartoonist Ali Ferzat was brutally attacked by masked assailants. A close look at the legislation, Decree No. 108, suggests the Assad regime is simply paying lip service to reform.

text: I have the FN version in .40 S&W and i like it. It has been perfectly reliable and I like having the additional "pop" of the .40 with 14 round magazines. The 9mm seems to be a bit more accurate than the .40 from what I have read. The recoil in mine is very manageable, in 9mm it must be a real pussycat to shoot. They are supposed to come out with a .45 ACP version this summer.


text: After extracting 4 heavy mediums with a 2 frame hand crank yesterday my lower back was not happy this morning. From what ive been reading about with sting therapy I thought Id try and take some stings in the area of my lower back where the tightness is-I did 2 stings this am but 8 hrs later no immediate noticeable change really-I'd love to hear opinions from beekeepers on this as a possible alternative pain management tool for low back pain? I read somewhere that the venom is 100 times more powerful than cortisone but you need at least 12 stings in the area to benefit from the full effects? Id also like to know if anyone has seen a sting map-of the specific areas to sting?

Regional Retail Gasoline Prices
Source: Energy Information Administration
Previous slide
Next slide
Back to first slide
View graphic version
Retail gasoline prices, like those for distillate fuels, have hit record prices nationally and in several regions this year. The national average regular gasoline price peaked at $1.68 per gallon in mid-June, but quickly declined, and now stands at $1.45, 17 cents higher than a year ago.
Two regions, in particular, experienced sharp gasoline price runups this year. California, which often has some of the highest prices in the nation, saw prices peak near $1.85 in mid-September, while the Midwest had average prices over $1.87 in mid-June. Local prices at some stations in both areas hit levels well over $2.00 per gallon.
The reasons for the regional price runups differed significantly. In the Midwest, the introduction of Phase 2 RFG was hampered by low stocks, pipeline problems, and a unique ethanol-blended product. The resulting supply shortfall was serious, but short-lived, and is unlikely to be repeated next year. In California, however, a chronically tight supply-demand balance resulted in a high-price situation that has been repeated often in recent years, and for which no solution has yet been found.
On the other hand, some regions, like the East Coast for example, have not varied significantly from the U. S. average price over the last few years, possibly due in part, to easier access to new supplies, especially imports.

Greek Week Chariot Race
Every spring, the Greek community is united for a week of competitions for Greek week. The chapters were divided into eight teams, my sorority being on the green team! The kickoff event was a chariot race, where all of the teams were to create a vehicle to race around the sentinel circle.
This was the first year for the chariot race. The teams came out with their crazy creations,and my team came with a tricycle. One of my sisters curled up on the seat, and three sets of two pullers took turns pulling her around the circle. I was in the first set for my team, and we dominated! I honestly was not sure if the tricycle would last the entire race. Other teams legitimately had their chariots crumble underneath the rider, or the rider flipping off around the circle. But our rider stayed on strong, and the green team ending up winning!
We are now looking forward to the rest of the Greek week events that will be occurring the rest of week 6.

That's something I never thought about! Tastes different? Amazing.
Something else I never thought about: BC, what is the general farming situation in Canada? Is there less of a "factory farming" mentality? I know that the population is much lower, but so is the extent of arable land.
Buttercup, these days, a lot of regions have farmers' markets even in the middle of cities, so small farmers have a better source of income and ordinary folk have a chance to eat fresh and varied produce. With the mass farming approach, only the varieties that travel well are cultivated, such as those styrofoam strawberries, unbreakable tomatoes, and mealy square apples. If you can get to a farmers' market, you can get juicy strawberries that even have an aroma, heirloom tomatoes in all kinds of colors and shapes, and apples such as Jonathans and russets, and the prices are often pretty good.
http://mro.massey.ac.nz/bitstream/ha...pdf?sequence=4 The study didn't examine US pork, but I can tell you that the first time I tasted it, I felt it had the smell of a rank chopping board.

That's amazing, BC. It's so fascinating how different we can all be in some areas despite our similarities. Physiology is endlessly riveting, both in small-scale ways and large. And yet with all the diversity within our own species, you can compare the human body with cats, whales, and even birds and find parallels. I still remember the day I realized that a bird's "wishbone" was a modified clavicle. The same bone, in the same position, connected to the same other bones. Wow.
I know that I'm very sensitive to the taste of spices. (Except, oddly, garlic, which doesn't bother me.) I don't know whether it's because for most of my life I've eaten food seasoned by nothing stronger than salt--even pepper makes me unhappy. Or is it because being an Eastern European, my palate is constructed differently? Hah! I can blame it on the ancestors. I can even smell some hot (non-aromatic) spices. Begone, poblano!
I guess it makes sense that meat would taste different depending on its diet. Recently I have read that grass-fed (free-ranging) cattle give beef that has a more healthful fat profile than grain-fed (factory-raised) cattle. Maybe there's a different taste, too. Though if all goes well this year, I will continue to go meatless and will not be making any taste tests anytime soon.

This is from an interview with Evan Lysacek a month after Vancouver:
When I was training for the Olympics, I spent 8 to 10 a.m. doing different floor training like warm ups, stretching, jumping rope, jumping hurdles and using bands. I was [on] the ice from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 3 to 4:20 p.m. From 5 p.m. until whenever I would finish, Id do heavy workouts with strenuous cardio, weight training and plyometrics. By the time I finished, I could barely stay awake for dinner. Every day for the last four years has been like that, but I loved it....[He also explained his training diet:] Id start the day with five servings of different fruits and two poached eggs. Throughout the day, Id drink protein shakes because there wasnt enough time to sit down and digest a meal. I would always drink a Vitamin Water or diluted PowerAde to get a little sugar. As soon as I finished my workout, Id eat a protein and five servings of vegetables. Now, Im eating whatever I want I love burgers, sushi and steak. I look at a menu now, and think What am I going to eat? I can have anything on here.
What a testament to Evan's workhorse nature. This guy didn't have the greatest talent of his skating generation, but whatever he had, he worked to the last inch. Can you imagine how satisfying it was for Frank Carroll to coach him?
When you think of a training routine like the one Evan and other skaters follow, you realize that the four minutes or so on the ice is the least of it. These people are in fifth gear from the moment they wake up to the moment they collapse at night, especially if they train fulltime rather than going to school in between sessions.
Sorry to doublt-post here, but it's been awhile since my last post, and it's on a different topic.
We were talking at one point about incomplete vs. complete protein, and I just heard that hemp seeds are actually a complete protein. This means that they contain all nine amino acids that we humans can't synthesize in our own bodies. I need to check this out, but I thought I'd just mention it. Hemp is a great food in any case, very high in protein and an especially good source of Omega-3 fatty acids, which aid the heart and blood vessels. I eat them, and they're pretty tasty--with kind of a sunflower seed flavor and texture. Ironically, with all the awful foods that the U.S. produces, American farmers aren't allowed to grow hemp...but the seeds can be sold here as food, so it's available here for nutritionally conscious folk such as skaters and skate fans. (And all Canadian posters are allowed to boast about this one, because most American hemp is imported from Canada.) I gather that hemp is closely related to cannabis, but hemp itself doesn't have the "bad" ingredient in it, so the prohibition is kind of silly.

Assistant Professor Gary Gaufo
UTSA neurobiologist awarded $225K for brain research
By Kris Rodriguez
Public Affairs Specialist
(April 13, 2007)--UTSA Assistant Professor Gary Gaufo was awarded a three-year, $225,000 grant from the Whitehall Foundation to support his research in developmental neurobiology.
The Whitehall Foundation is a nonprofit corporation focused exclusively on assisting research in vertebrate and invertebrate neurobiology in the United States.

- UTSA alumna Jordan Kaufmann wins $50K for new stent-graft start-up
- UTSA begins new way-finding sign installation this summer at Main Campus
- USA Today: UTSA long jumper Tyler Williamson rescues three-year-old boy
Article tools
Gaufo studies the mammalian brain and his research focuses on identifying mechanisms that control the growth of nerve cells, which control a variety of bodily functions including chewing, facial expression, heart rate, breathing and digestion.
"We would like to understand how simple, evolutionarily conserved mechanisms are used to generate the network of neurons that produce complex behaviors associated with the head," said Gaufo. "With over 10 percent of birth defects in the U.S. affecting the cranial-facial region, we hope that our research will also provide insight into developmental disorders associated with the genes that we are currently investigating."
Before joining UTSA in 2005, Gaufo was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of California, San Francisco and the University of Utah Howard Hughes Medical Institute. In Utah, he studied under Mario Capecchi, a technological pioneer of genetic engineering. Gaufo earned bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees in biology at the University of California, Berkeley.

An actor who has done 100 productions at the same theater? That's all but unheard of in this country, where actors usually have more in common with an itinerant tinker than with such a professional stick-in-the-mud.
But that's the story with Fred Sullivan, Jr. as he comes to Neil Simon's The Odd Couple, which Trinity Repertory Company is staging through May 9.
Over 26 seasons, his roles have ranged in challenge and tone from the dignity of King Creon in The Dreams of Antigone, through the brooding severity of Edmund Tyrone in Long Day's Journey Into Night, to the lighthearted jesting of Touchstone and Sir Toby Belch in Shakespeare, to the exuberance of super-salesman Harold Hill in The Music Man, to the sheer, sniggering fun of Captain Hook in Peter Pan.
A career like his could only happen at Trinity. It's the only theater in America that goes to the trouble of maintaining an actual theater company, a troupe of regulars who can expect steady work. Instead of being treated like day laborers, the 13 actors have seasons designed with each of them in mind. These days for economic expedience, regional theater actors are the equivalent of the guys who collect at a certain corner at dawn and hope to be waved onto a pickup truck for a job.
That number 100 means something to Sullivan as well as to Trinity regulars. He is a counter. He knows that Harold Hill was number 50, that he has done four Crucibles, three Tempests, three Winter's Tales. He knows that he has acted in or directed 208 plays in his life — the additional 108 accounted for because he began by directing a play in elementary school when he was 12.
"I probably have a little Rain Man gene somewhere," Sullivan says of the obsession. "We don't get paid an enormous amount like movie actors, and we don't have a very glamorous life. We get recognized at the supermarket, you know? We dedicate our lives to a body of work. And to know what the number is in a body of work is important to me."
A heel-clicking 22 when he came to Trinity Rep, he was attracted by the exciting, risk-taking productions that founder Adrian Hall was mounting.
"He really was very smart and worked from inside the text in a unique way," Sullivan says. "And that really kind of rocked my world. Changed how I work."
The young actor started out in the 1983 production of Jonestown Express, just one of the anonymous supporting ensemble.
But, "I was treated pretty much like family and given a lot of respect," he says. "My voice will crack when I talk about it too much, because I have loved my adult life in the theater here so much. It gave me a permanent home."
Sullivan's home is under more than one roof. He refers to himself as "head coach" at the Sandra Feinstein-Gamm Theatre, where he does a lot of directing in what could laughably be called his free time.
"People say, 'Do you have any hobbies?' I get up and I go teach — theater — and then I go to rehearsal and rehearse theater, and then I walk out onstage and I act or something that I've directed is on the stage. This year was a very busy year, where Much Ado and Shooting Star were both on Gamm and Trinity stages while I was rehearsing Christmas Carol and teaching acting at RISD."
And now and then he takes acting jobs at other theaters, for fresh perspective and to perk up his morale.
"I actually like going to work at another theater, because they don't take for granted what I do," he says. "If I play Bottom in A Midsummer Night's Dream in Boston, people kind of open their mouths agape. 'Oh my God, this guy is going to be good.' Whereas when I do it here, they're like, 'There goes Fred again.' "
He sounds amused.
"I made a lucky choice," Sullivan says. "Because I was asked to be in the Boston Shakespeare Company the same year that I decided to come down here."
He adds, laughing lightly: "The Boston Shakespeare Company ended two years later."

Patients Face More Lethal Infections from CRE »
"A 2013 Vital Signs report shows that antibiotics are being overpowered by lethal germs called carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE).These germs cause lethal infections in patients receiving inpatient medical care, such as in hospitals, lo"...

(erythromycin) Delayed-Release Tablets, USP Enteric-Coated
To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of ERY-TAB (erythromycin delayed release tablets) and other antibacterial drugs, ERY-TAB (erythromycin delayed release tablets) should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by bacteria.
ERY-TAB (erythromycin delayed-release tablets) is an antibacterial product containing erythromycin base in a specially enteric-coated tablet to protect it from the inactivating effects of gastric acidity and to permit efficient absorption of the antibiotic in the small intestine. ERY-TAB (erythromycin delayed release tablets) tablets for oral administration are available in three dosage strengths, each white oval tablet containing either 250 mg, 333 mg, or 500 mg of erythromycin as the free base. ERY-TAB tablets comply with USP Drug Release Test 1.
Erythromycin is produced by a strain of Saccharopolyspora erythraea (formerly Streptomyces erythraeus) and belongs to the macrolide group of antibiotics. It is basic and readily forms salts with acids. Erythromycin is a white to off-white powder, slightly soluble in water, and soluble in alcohol, chloroform, and ether. Erythromycin is known chemically as (3R*, 4S*, 5S*, 6R*, 7R*, 9R*, 11R*, 12R*, 13S*, 14R*)-4-[(2,6-dideoxy-3-C-methyl-3-O-methyl-α-L-ribo-hexopyranosyl)oxy]-14-ethyl-7,12,13 trihydroxy-3,5,7,9,11,13-hex-amethyl-6-[[3,4,6-trideoxy-3-(dimethylamino)-β-D-xylo-hexopyranosyl]oxy]oxacyclotetradecane-2,10-dione. The molecular formula is C37H67NO13, and the molecular weight is 733.94. The structural formula is:
Inactive Ingredients
Ammonium hydroxide, colloidal silicon dioxide, croscarmellose sodium, crospovidone, diacetylated monoglycerides, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hypromellose, hypromellose phthalate, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, povidone, propylene glycol, sodium citrate, sorbitan monooleate, talc, and titanium dioxide.
What are the possible side effects of erythromycin?
Get emergency medical help if you have any of these signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficulty breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Call your doctor at once if you have a serious side effect such as:
- severe dizziness, fainting, fast or pounding heartbeats;
- diarrhea that is watery or bloody;
- hearing problems;
- vomiting or fussiness after eating (in a child taking erythromycin);
- nausea, upper stomach pain, itching, loss of appetite, dark urine, clay-colored stools, jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes);...

What are the precautions when taking erythromycin delayed release tablets (Ery-Tab)?
Before taking erythromycin, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or to other macrolide antibiotics (such as azithromycin, clarithromycin); or if you have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details.
Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist your medical history, especially of: liver disease, kidney disease, a certain type of muscle disease (myasthenia gravis).
Erythromycin may cause a condition that affects the heart rhythm (QT prolongation). QT prolongation can infrequently result in serious (rarely fatal) fast/irregular heartbeat and other symptoms (such as severe dizziness, fainting) that need medical attention...

GameStop Settles Class Action Used Game Suit
GameStop has settled in a class action suit brought by consumers for misleading used game sales. According to James Collins, the initial bringer of the legal action, GameStop failed to give notice of online passes and how much DLC would cost, describing many segments of paid for gameplay as free.
As part of the settlement, GameStop has agreed to post stickers and notices on used games and on the website itself, stating how and when what content must be paid for. Also, anyone that bought a used game and then went on to purchase DLC that they thought was included with the original price, will receive a $10 cheque in repayment as well as a $5 credit payment if they're enrolled in the GameStop reward scheme.
According to Games Industry, the lawyers behind the suite are looking to expand their litigation into other states, so if you've bought DLC after buying up a used game from GameStop, you might be entitled to just under $20.

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by CATCH17, Jan 8, 2013.
Kirby Smart
Dan Quinn
our defense isn't even close to ready for the tampa 2. Our CBs are man cover corners and not zone guys
I am all for lovie smith !
Its a shame ryan got blamed for what he had to work with .
I'm not so sure...prior to last years draft a lot of the so called draft analysts intimated that Morris Claiborne would be an ideal fit in a cover two scheme due to his good ball skills but average speed. Mo does a lot of things well, but he's a little slower than you'd prefer a man-to-man cover corner to be.
Whatever jerry chooses is surely best
You nearly made me throw up.
But he's not a 4-3 guy, is Jerry ready to go back to a 4-3? I am
Are you talking about Lovie? Because he's a 4-3 guy.
Sorry, I meant 3-4 guy. He's not a 3-4 guy.
Apparently Capers will be available.
Interviewed but Brian Stewart didn't want and Wade sided with BS. Was on Garrett's initial Want list. Coached with him at Miami.
He didn't get blamed for what he had to work with. He got fired because he isn't very good, and the Cowboys are likely looking to change their defense.
I think its a good option with spencer being gone . My only problem is how to get carter and lee on at the same time . I wouldnt mind some form of cover 2 scheme and make teams earn a TD .
Imo 3-4 is pointless if your not playing an aggressive blitzing type strategy .
He's a no brainer if available.
He's top 5 in the league.
Horton or Crennel!
i dont know how anyone can say he wasnt good when he had more than half his defense injured .
If you want to throw out some blame look directly at garrett he single-handedly cost us multiple games .
I do admire what Ryan did with all the injuries this season, but I just had a big problem with his schemes and the way he was so vanilla in playing our defense. He hardly ever blitzed and considering we played a 3-4 defense, those defenses tend to be aggressive and we weren't.
Those all sound like pretty good names.
I would love Lovie or like someone else mentioned Monte Kiffin.
I think my favorite would be Horton. Would he make a lateral move though?
As was i , but like i mentioned in another thread , we would have gotten eaten alive had we blitzed more , when we did blitz , NOBODY got off theyre blocks and the free blitzers were too slow(think sensi) .
I think had we had the personnel to blitz and be aggressive , we would have done so but its very hard with so many players injured all year .
To be honest, he didn't blitz much when we were fully healthy. I don't understand why Rob did that constantly considering we added two corners in the off-season which should've INCREASED the amount of pressure and we actually blitzed less than in 2011. Just makes no sense.
Yup and if things don't get resolved quickly and the Pack coincidentally keep winning playoff games you can bet he will be the guy.
