Comparison of Vitamin, Mineral and Antioxidant Levels in Raw and Processed Honey
Ropa Science Research
Research Project Funded by the National Honey Board – D. Ropa, 2012
This 2012 study examined the effects of commercial processing on the pollen and nutrient content of honey. Processing reduced the pollen content of the honey, but did not affect the nutrient content. The micronutrient profile of honey is not associated with its pollen content and is not affected by commercial processing.
The 2012 study and abstract with statistical analysis was presented at the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) Conference in Boston April 20-24, 2013.
Comparison of Mineral and Enzyme Levels in Raw and Processed Honey
Ropa Science Research
Research Project Funded by National Honey Board - D. Ropa, 2010
To ascertain just how much honey changes after it has been heated and filtered, the National Honey Board contracted with American Analytical Laboratories to test honey samples taken prior to processing and then after being processed. The goal was to find out the degree to which the minerals, antioxidants and enzymes change after honey is sent through an industrial processing system.
This research shows a great deal of variability between samples from the same supplier as well as samples across suppliers. Because of this level of variation, it is difficult to draw more than general conclusions regarding the changes that occur to honey post-processing. However, processing is not a fully destructive process, as some consumers would have others believe. Heating and filtering honey does not completely eliminate all enzymes, nor does it have a negative effect on honey's mineral and antioxidant levels.
The Effect of Honey on the Growth of Bifidobacteria
Michigan State University
Research Project Funded by National Honey Board - Z. Ustunol, Ph.D., 2001
Bifidobacteria are part of a group of bacteria considered important to the health of the gastrointestinal tract (GI). Clinical studies have associated other beneficial effects such as immune enhancement and anti-carcinogenicity with the presence of bifidobacteria in the GI tract.
One approach for ensuring or increasing the presence of healthful colonic bacteria is to provide them as a probiotic. A probiotic is a live microbial feed supplement, which beneficially affects the host organism by improving its intestinal microbial balance.
Dairy products have been the preferred medium to reintroduce viable populations of lactic acid bacteria and bifidobacteria into the GI tract of both children and adults. Bifidobacteria must remain viable in large numbers in the carrier food to be used with confidence as a dietary adjunct. However, maintaining the viability of bifidobacteria during processing and refrigerated storage has been a challenge to dairy processors.
Another approach to increasing the numbers of bifidobacteria in the GI tract is the incorporation of prebiotics in the diet. A prebiotic is a non-digestible dietary supplement that modifies the balance of the intestinal microflora stimulating the growth and/or activity of the beneficial organisms and suppressing potentially deleterious bacteria. Currently, the most common prebiotics are nondigestible oligosaccharides, such as fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and inulin.
Growth and viability of bifidobacteria in fermented milk can be enhanced significantly by the incorporation of FOS and galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) in milk prior to fermentation. Honey contains a variety of oligosaccharides varying in their degree of polymerization. The unique composition of honey suggests that it could enhance the growth, activity and viability of bifidobacteria in milk and thus, fermented dairy products. To evaluate this hypothesis, the following study on growth-promoting and prebiotic activity of honey on bifidobacteria was conducted.

US honeys varying in glucose and fructose content elicit similar glycemic indexes
Journal of American Dietetic Association
Ischayek JI, Kern M., 2006 Aug; 106(8):1260-2
The predominant carbohydrates found in honey are glucose and fructose, the relative percentages of which depend largely on the floral variety. Research suggests that the fructose-to-glucose ratio in a given honey and, thus, its floral source, may influence the glycemic response and, thus, the glycemic index (GI). To date, no studies of examining the GI of US honey varieties are available. Thus the purpose of this study was to determine the GI of four US honey varieties (clover, tupelo, cotton, and buckwheat) differing in fructose-to-glucose ratio. Twelve healthy adult men and women with a mean (+/-standard error) age of 24.5+/-1.5 years served as subjects. The glycemic index of 250-mL solution servings of clover, buckwheat, cotton, and tupelo honeys providing 50 g carbohydrate were assessed relative to triplicate feedings of 50 g carbohydrate as a glucose solution. Fructose-to-glucose ratios were 1.09, 1.12, 1.03, 1.54, for clover, buckwheat, cotton, and tupelo, respectively. Blood was collected after an overnight fast and 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after intake. Ten minutes were allowed for food consumption. Areas under the glycemic response curves for each honey were expressed as percent means of each participant's average response to glucose feedings. The means (+/-standard error) of the glycemic index were 69.2+/-8.1, 73.4+/-6.4, 73.6+/-6.6, 74.1+/-8.2 for clover, buckwheat, cotton, and tupelo honeys, respectively. No statistically significant differences between the honeys were apparent, nor was a relationship between glycemic index and the fructose-to-glucose ratio detected. These results indicate that small differences in fructose-to-glucose ratios do not substantially impact honey glycemic index.

Frequent consumption of honey, tea and ham may be effective to improve selenium concentration
Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism

Frequent consumption of honey, tea and ham may be effective to improve selenium concentration in selenium-inadequate individuals
Selenium has recently gained attention for its indirect, albeit important role as an antioxidant. Selenium is a component of glutathione peroxidases, a family of antioxidant enzymes that aid in preventing lipid peroxidation and membrane damage that can result from free radicals. Studies indicate the selenium status is highly dependent upon dietary sources of selenium which can be highly variable depending upon the selenium content of the soil from which the given food originates. The purpose of this study was to assess which foods or food groups best affect serum selenium in subjects with low selenium status (i.e., selenium concentrations < 70 microg/L). One hundred and twenty-nine subjects residing in Poland completed a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire. Serum selenium concentrations were determined using the electrothermal absorption spectrometry (ETAAS) technique following serum dilution. The consumption of ham, honey and tea was positively associated with the selenium concentration in the sera of selenium-inadequate subjects. In The selenium concentrations in the sera of the selenium-adequate subjects were positively correlated with the frequencies of wholegrain bread consumption and processed fruit consumption. These results suggest that frequent consumption of ham, tea and honey may be effective to improve the selenium concentration of selenium-inadequate subjects.

Acute and Chronic Effects of Honey and Its Carbohydrate Constituents on Calcium Absorption in Rats
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
Ariefdjohan, Martin, Lachcik, and Weaver: 2008, 56, 2649–2654
The effects of honey and its carbohydrate constituents (glucose, fructose, and raffinose) on calcium absorption in rats were investigated in acute and chronic feeding studies. In the acute study, rats (n=120) were gavaged with an oral solution consisting of (a) 10 µCi Ca, (b) 25 mg of calcium as calcium acetate, and (c) one of the following: 0 mg of honey (control), or 200, 500, or 800 mg of honey, a glucose fructose mixture, 10.75 mg of raffinose, or 200 mg of raffinose. Another group received Ca intraperitoneally. Femurs were collected 2 days later and analyzed for Ca content. Rats given 500 and 800 mg of honey showed 25.5 and 33.6% increases in calcium absorption (P < 0.05), respectively, over the control group. Groups given the glucose fructose mixture or 200 mg of - raffinose had a significantly higher increase in calcium absorption than the control group (17.1 and 25.6%, respectively). In the chronic study, rats (n 96) were fed for 8 weeks with either 0% honey (control), 5% honey, 10% honey, or a glucose fructose raffinose (GFR) mixture. Femurs of GFR-fed rats had significantly lower calcium content, Ca absorption, width, and BMD (at distal region) than control rats. Groups fed honey did not show the negative effects of GFR on bone, but had no advantage over the control group. No significant differences were observed in femur length, density, strength, or BMC among any treatment group compared to the control group. These results indicate that although a positive dose–response effect of honey and its carbohydrate constituents on calcium absorption was observed in the acute study, this effect disappeared upon long-term feeding in rats, implying adaptation had occurred.

Honey enhances the production of lactic acid from Bifidobacteria
Journal of Food Science
Lactic acid bacteria are common starter cultures used by the dairy industry to manufacture fermented dairy products (i.e., yogurt). Honey may be an ideal sweetener for yogurt due to its sugar concentration, pH, and value-added image. Nonetheless, manufacturers have been reluctant to use honey as a sweetener in yogurts due to the belief that honey may be inhibitory to lactic acid starter cultures. The purpose of this study was to examine the growth of lactic acid bacteria and bifidobacteria in a honey medium and determine the levels of lactic and acetic acid produced by these organisms when grown in honey. Twelve percent nonfat dry milk containing 5% (w/w) clover honey, fructose or sucrose were pasteurized and inoculated with commercial strains of Steptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus delbrukeii subsp bulgaricus and probiotics Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium bifidum. Samples were examined at 0 and 24 hours for (1) viability of bacteria and (2) levels of fermentation end products (i.e., lactic and acetic acid). Viability of bacteria was not influenced by sweetener type indicating that honey was not inhibitory at the 5% level. In addition, honey significantly enhanced the growth/production of lactic acid from Bifidobacteria. These results indicate that honey could be a suitable sweetener for fermented dairy products such as yogurt.

Honey Can Serve as an Effective Carbohydrate Replacement During Endurance Exercise
Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research
The benefit of CHO consumption during endurance exercise is well-documented. It is generally recommended that a high glycemic index (GI) carbohydrate (CHO) be used; although data supporting this recommendation is limited. The purpose of this study was to compare a high GI CHO (glucose) to a lower GI CHO (honey) on cycling performance. Nine male endurance athletes participated in 3 simulated 64 km time trials with a 7-day washout period between trials. Supplements—honey, glucose, placebo—were provided randomly and double-blind at the beginning of the TT and every 16 km thereafter. Power output (Watts), HR, RPE, glucose, insulin and time to complete the segment were measured every 16 km. Time to complete the total TT was significantly faster for the both the glucose and honey groups compared to the placebo group (p < 0.05) largely due to a longer time for the placebo group to complete the last two 16 km. Power output was significantly greater for the honey and glucose groups vs. the placebo group (p < 0.05); however, when the final 16-km power output was expressed as a percentage of pretest maximal power output, only the glucose treatment was greater than placebo (although the honey condition approached significance (p < 0.06)).

Honey can enhance the growth and acid production of human Bifidobacterium ssp.
Journal of Food Protection
The study examined the potential for honey to act as a pre-biotic, i.e., enhance the growth of and promoting lactic and acetic acid production by human intestinal Bifidobacteria. Five human intestinal Bifidobacterium spp., (B. longum, B. adolescentis, B. breve, B. bifidum, and B. infantis), were cultured in reinforced clostridial medium (control) and in reinforced clostridial medium supplemented with 5% (wt/vol) clover honey, fructooligosaccharide (FOS), galactooligosaccharide (GOS), or inulin. Inoculated samples were incubated anaerobically at 37degrees C for 48 h. Samples were collected at 12-h intervals (i.e., 12, 36, and 48 hr) and examined for specific growth rate. Levels of fermentation end products (lactic and acetic acids) were measured by high-pressure liquid chromatography. Honey, FOS, GOS, and inulin showed similar effectiveness in supporting Bifidobacterium spp growth and were significantly more effective than the control at 36 and 48 hr (P < 0.05).

Identification and Quantification of Antioxidant Components of Honeys from Various Floral Sources
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
2002, Vol. 50, No. 21, pp.5870-5877
The objective of this study was to quantify and characterize the antioxidants and some of the isolated phenolic compounds and/or fractions of honeys from seven different floral sources (acacia, buckwheat, clover, fireweed, Hawaiian Christmas berry, tupelo, and soybean). Chromatograms of the phenolic nonpolar fraction of the honeys indicated that most honeys contain similar types but quantitatively different phenolic contents. The primary flavinoids identified were the flavanones pinobanksin, and pinocembrin and the flavones chrysin and galangin. A linear correlation between phenolic content and ORAC activity was demonstrated (R(2) = 0.963, p < 0.0001). Honeys were separated by solid-phase extraction into four fractions to identify the relative contribution of each fraction to the antioxidant activity of honey. Antioxidant analysis of the different honey fractions suggested that the water-soluble fraction contained most of the antioxidant components, including protein; gluconic acid; ascorbic acid; hydroxymethylfuraldehyde; and the combined activities of the enzymes glucose oxidase, catalase and peroxidase. Of these components, a significant correlation could be established only between protein content and ORAC activity (R(2) = 0.674, p = 0.024). These results suggest that the antioxidant capacity of honey is a product of the combined activity of a wide range of compounds including phenolics, peptides, organic acids, enzymes, Maillard reaction products, and possibly other minor components.

Antioxidant capacity of honeys from various floral sources

Antioxidant capacity of honeys from various floral sources and inhibition of in vitro lipoprotein oxidation in human serum samples
In this study honeys from seven different floral sources (acacia, buckwheat, clover, fireweed, Hawaiian Christmas berry, tupelo, and soybean) were analyzed for in vitro antioxidant capacity and total phenolic content. Antioxidant capacity was measured by the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay and by monitoring the formation of conjugated dienes as an index of the inhibition of copper-catalyzed serum lipoprotein oxidation. ORAC values for the honeys ranged from 3.0 micromol Trolox equivalent/g for acacia to 17.0 micromol Trolox equivalent/g for buckwheat and all were significantly higher than the sugar analogue (p < 0.05). A linear correlation was observed between phenolic content and ORAC activity of the investigated honeys (p < 0.0001, R (2) = 0.9497). The relationship between the ORAC activity and inhibition of lipoprotein oxidation by the honeys yielded a correlation coefficient of 0.6653 (p = 0.0136). This work shows that honey may serve as a source of dietary antioxidants and a healthy alternative to sugar.

Honeys with high phenolic contents can increase serum antioxidant capacity in healthy human subjects
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
The effects of consuming 1.5 g/kg body weight of corn syrup or buckwheat honey on the antioxidant and reducing capacities of plasma. Forty subjects were randomly assigned to one of four groups: (1) corn syrup, (2) low phenolic content buckwheat honey, (3) high phenolic content buckwheat honey, (4) water. Following consumption of the two honey treatments, plasma total-phenolic content increased (P < 0.05) as did plasma antioxidant and reducing capacities (P < 0.05). In contrast, corn syrup had no significant effect. These data support the concept that phenolic antioxidants from processed honey are bioavailable, and that they increase antioxidant activity of plasma. It can be speculated that honey consumption could augment the body's defenses against oxidative stress. Given that the average sweetener intake by humans is estimated to exceed 70 kg per year, the substitution of honey for traditional sweeteners could result in an enhanced antioxidant defense system in healthy adults.

Buckwheat Honey Increases Serum Antioxidant Capacity in Humans
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
2003, Vol. 51 pp. 1500-1505
This study examined the acute effects of consuming buckwheat honey (dissolved in water) compared to black tea, black tea with sugar, or black tea with buckwheat honey on serum oxidative status and lipoprotein oxidation. Twenty-five healthy men consumed each of the five beverages in a blind, randomized fashion. Antioxidant capacity of human serum samples was measured using a variety of methods including the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay, ex vivo susceptibility of serum lipoprotein to Cu(2+)-induced oxidation, and the thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) assay. The results showed that black tea with honey had the highest phenolic content and thus antioxidant potential, followed by tea alone, tea with sugar and honey alone. However, buckwheat honey produced the greatest increase in serum antioxidant capacity (demonstrating the inconsistency between the antioxidant potential of a food and its actual effect on serum antioxidant capacity). Ex vivo serum lipoprotein oxidation and TBARS values were not significantly altered after consumption of any of the five beverages.

Chronic Honey Consumption Increases Plasma Antioxidant Concentration
Abstract presented at the American Chemical Society
March 29, 2004
Gross H. Effect of honey consumption on plasma antioxidant status in human subjects.
Previous research has indicated that a acute honey consumption (i.e., a single dose) can raise the phenolic concentration of the plasma. This study examined the effects of chronic honey consumption to determine if increases in total plasma phenolic content and plasma antioxidant capacity could be sustained over the long term. Twenty-five subjects (13 Males and 12 females) consumed 1.5 grams of honey per kilogram of body weight (~4-10 tablespoons) for 28 days. Subjects were randomly assigned either a honey with a high phenolic content (HA) or a lower phenolic content (LA). Total plasma phenolics were measured on day 1 and 29 at 5 different time points: immediately after honey consumption and then again 1.5 hr, 3 hr 6 hr and 24 hour post-consumption. The results indicated that the phenolic content of the plasma on day 29 was significantly higher than baseline (i.e., day one) in both honey groups, suggesting that chronic honey consumption can increase the antioxidant capacity of the plasma.

Effect of Processing and Storage on Antioxidant Capacity of Honey
Journal of Food Science
Commercial honey processing generally involves controlled heating (to destroy yeast and delay granulation) combined with fine straining or pressure filtration. There has been concern that the processing of honey may reduce the antioxidant capacity of honey. This study examined the impact of heat and filtration on the antioxidant capacity of clover and buckwheat honeys during storage. Processed and unprocessed clover and buckwheat honey was stored in clear glass, amber glass, and polyethylene bottes and stored at room temperature under both natural laboratory lighting and in the dark (3 samples per condition). Additional samples were stored for 6 months at 4 degrees Celsius and -20 degrees Celsius. Antioxidant capacity of the honeys was determined by oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC). Processing clover did not significantly impact antioxidant capacity; however, processing lowered the antioxidant capacity for buckwheat honey, by 33.4%. Antioxidant capacity of all honey samples was reduced after 6 months storage, with no impact of storage temperature or container type. Processed and raw honeys showed similar antioxidant capacity after storage.

Total Antioxidant Content of Alternatives to Refined Sugar
Journal of the AMERICAN DIETETIC ASSOCIATION
2009; 109:64-71
Background: Oxidative damage is implicated in the etiology of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and other degenerative disorders. Recent nutritional research has focused on the antioxidant potential of foods, while current dietary recommendations are to increase the intake of antioxidant– rich foods rather than supplement specific nutrients. Many alternatives to refined sugar are available, including raw cane sugar, plant saps/syrups (eg, maple syrup, agave nectar), molasses, honey, and fruit sugars (eg, date sugar). Unrefined sweeteners were hypothesized to contain higher levels of antioxidants, similar to the contrast between whole and refined grain products.
Objective: To compare the total antioxidant content of natural sweeteners as alternatives to refined sugar.
Design: The ferric-reducing ability of plasma (FRAP) assay was used to estimate total antioxidant capacity. Major brands of 12 types of sweeteners as well as refined white sugar and corn syrup were sampled from retail outlets in the United States.
Results: Substantial differences in total antioxidant content of different sweeteners were found. Refined sugar, corn syrup, and agave nectar contained minimal antioxidant activity (0.01 mmol FRAP/100 g); raw cane sugar had a higher FRAP (0.1 mmol/100 g). Dark and black–strap molasses had the highest FRAP (4.6 to 4.9 mmol/ 100 g), while maple syrup, brown sugar, and honey showed intermediate antioxidant capacity (0.2 to 0.7 mmol FRAP/100 g). Based on an average intake of 130 g/day re?ned sugars and the antioxidant activity measured in typical diets, substituting alternative sweeteners could increase antioxidant intake an average of 2.6 mmol/day, similar to the amount found in a serving of berries or nuts.

Re: Pasta maker
Hi Rose,
The standard home pasta machine is the little Imperia SP150 model. I love mine. It's a study little machine, and it comes with a double cutter for tagliatelle and fettucini.
I found one here: http://www.catererswarehouse.com.au/pro … mp;cID=341 and you could probably find one on eBay.
I can't help you with real shops, sorry, but perhaps someone else can.
There are cheaper makes, but Imperia is known to be very good quality - if I remember rightly, I bought Imperia because Jamie's mentor Gennaro recommended it in his book, Passione.
Hope this helps!

New Clan - GLoW
Hey, my friend and I have made a clan called GLoW which will eventually be signed up onto FN but at the moment I'm just trying to get members. GLoW means glow. Simple as that, not an acronym just a name turned fanceh. I'm looking for people from all over the world so then different time zones can play together and if there is a tournament out of someone's time zone, someone else can step in. These are the requirements if you'd like to join GLoW (sorry but I'm kinda OCD so just bare with me):
• You MUST have at least 1000 kills over your deaths
• You MUST be flexible when it comes to different modes. I'd like people who are good at one mode and some other modes. Not just good at one mode and sucks at the others.
• If you have the Co-Op star, you will have a better chance of being accepted. If not then that's fine. The Co-Op star shows that you are good at teamwork and you know how to get yourself out of and solve a sticky situation.
• You MUST be flexible with most guns. Honestly, if you just use an M9 or AK on every single map then I probably won't want you on my team. If you are willing to pick up some other guns and learn some other guns, then I would gladly help you learn them.
• You MUST practice AT LEAST once a week. Our clan has bootcamp so whenever someone else in the clan is on, you can go into bootcamp. This includes Tbolt and sniper training, GMAL and FAL, assault rifles and pistols. I'd like my clan to be able to stay safe if they have to pick up a gun which they aren't familiar with during a competitive game.
• It's not a must but it would be awesome if you have at least one map pack.
I believe that's all of the requirements. There might be more but until I can remember them, these are the ones which you should be up to. If you don't meet one or two of these requirements but still want to join, tell me and if I can see you are competent with the other requirements then I'll consider still letting you in. Like if you only use an assault rifle but are very good at using it, I'll consider letting you in.
If you have any further questions, feel free to comment on this thread or send me a message over PSN @ xINESCAPABLEx.
• xINESCAPABLEx
• Potatobag948
• Tanveer2greezy4u
• Sphereboundseiya
And some others but there's too many numbers and I can't remember their names. I'll edit their names in at a future date.

"Most guns" are M9's (I know what you mean but I'm twisting your words to make a point). There's no reason you'd ever have to use anything else. Sniping/long range -- check. Beat a KAL in CQC --check. Midrange -- check. Never ever run out of ammo -- check.
Are you just saying that you want people who are willing to use other guns or do you think its actually important to be able to use other guns? Practically speaking an M9 will work in every map, every time, in every way.
Just sayin'.
And the AK's pretty hipster if you ask me.
Wipe that smile off your face and get your tryhard face on!!!
Re: New Clan - GLoW
Re: New Clan - GLoW[ Edited ]
M9 is kind of overpowered when people use RoF and everything. I'm probably one of the only people who uses WE without putting RoF on it. I use Scope Zoom and Max Ammo. It's so helpful. Adds Marlowe's and Chloe's M9 to make one awesome weapon. I find that I just can't get a lot of kills with RoF. I can't control long range.
What I mean by you must be flexible with other guns is that if you run out of ammo and say you come across a FAL, I would like you to be able to defend yourself. Not just use it willy nilly hoping to get a kill. If you can understand all guns you can see that the M9 isn't the gun for every map. I probably only use it on 50% of maps. Rest is split up to FAL, GMAL and Sniper.
Are you on now Stunt? Right now I'm just checking my facebook but if you're on now I can meet you. Also, you have to give me some pointers for the RaffDrag c:
I tried pulling it off a little while back but I just couldn't do it. I could have the burst connect but then when it went to the sniper, the sudden scope in kind of made me go, "Whoaaaa!" and then I died
Stunt, what's wrong with your stats? The stats are just an easy way for me to determine your skill, I know you're good so you can join the clan if you'd like.
Re: New Clan - GLoW
Also I'm in school right now, just waiting for my next class.
Besides, I do the RaffDrag WE trick in reverse, because I prefer having my Raff out. either way I don't do it all the time. I just like people trying to picl up my sniper but picking up the Raffica instead, the they go pick up their pistol again because god knows why they just can't use the Raffica then BAM. Killed.
Re: New Clan - GLoW
School on a Sunday? Where do you live?
I'm assuming it's Sunday wherever you live. It's like 1.45pm here on Monday and it's Cloudy :c
I thought that using the Drag then the Raff WAS the reverse trick... The RaffDrag in that order is the normal isn't it...?

Hello Everone,
The top bar hive(tbh) and trough hive(th) do provide interesting alternatives for those with different purposes or needs that are not addressed by the standard hives available in the US today.
Another alternative is the cabinet type hive used throughout much of Europe. This hive is configured vertically rather than horizontally as in the tbh and th.
The work load is reduced as individual frames can be removed without lifting supers or disturbing the rest of the hive. The back of each super or section is hinged and provides access to the frames.
Much less bending or stooping is needed as most of the frames are at a more comfortable and workable height.
Overwintering could be improved as the bees can migrate vertically following the natural heat flow.
Although these hives have been used for some time throughout Europe, I haven't been able to find any constuction details or designs for these hives. Only a few pictures and references are available in the bee mags.
Anyone have any experience with these hives? I have corresponded with several people who have visited countries that used these hives but construction details aren't available.
I think designing and building a cabinet hive that would use the standard deep frame could be an interesting project and provide a useful alternative hive.
Anyone with ideas or experience?
Thanks Dennis

Surface - A new solution
If an iconic skincare line and an internationally respected furniture manufacturer could produce offspring, it might well be Malin+Goetz. The brainchild of Kiehl's alumnus Matthew Malin and Vitra veteran Andrew Goetz, the Manhattan-based company mixes luxurious products with top-flight packaging and retail interiors.
The pair's New York City shop showcases modern looking products in an atmosphere that evokes the image of the traditional pharmacy. "Andrew and I have always discussed having our own community store, something that combined his world of design with mine of cosmetics," says Malin. 'We wanted something modern but similar in feel to the history of service found in European apothecaries with unique specialty products and we always wanted to do skincare for men and women as an extension of a lifestyle."
Design inspiration came from the couple's travels and old-world icons (European pharmacies, their standard neon "plus" signs, and nofrill chemist labels) and modern sensibilities (minimalist bottles). Malin and Goetz enlisted designers at the Manhattan firm 2x4 to integrate these symbols into their brand identity (see the plus-centric Malin+Goetz). The sleek, unisex vibe of the packaging is appropriate for global nomad types with limited shelf and luggage space.
Malin and Goetz focused similar attention on the store's interiors. The entrance is made of glacier-white Corian, providing a clean canvas that sets off the products' simple color code red (hair), blue (skin), and brown (body). Architect Craig Konyk divided the space using a translucent screen that permits voyeurs to view the not-so-glamorous parts of the business - packaging, storage, sampling, and meetings in progress.
The final details are equally innovative and fresh for example, products are displayed cradled in shredded design magazines. When asked which magazines made the "cut," Goetz grinned mischievously and confessed that there is a "pecking order" for which magazines hit the shredder. He just won't reveal what they are - except for one. Surface is honored to be included.

Famous circus -- and controversy -- come to Redmond
Protesters plan rallies at Ringling Bros. performances
REDMOND, Ore. - You might know it as the "Greatest Show on Earth," and as its manager puts it, the Ringling Bros. Barnum and Bailey Circus is as American as baseball -- and just as old.
"(We are) 143 years (old)," General Manager Rob Lange said Tuesday as the circus set up at the Deschutes County Fairgrounds. "We bring people from all over the world to perform with us."
It could also be one of the busiest circuses -- Lange said they perform all but two weeks a year.
And so do the circus animals. But that's where the controversy comes in.
"It's completely unnatural for them to be confined, and they can be confined in between cities for 20 to 30 hours at a time," said Bend resident and circus protester Reese Mercer.
There's nothing new about people protesting circuses, but this is the first time the Ringling Bros. circus is coming to Central Oregon -- and Mercer hopes it's the last.
"We have about 3,000 signatures right now, asking the county fairgrounds board not to bring the circus back," Mercer said.
Mercer said a couple dozen protesters in Central Oregon are already showing their support, hanging signs and passing out fliers.
Once the performance starts, protesters will be there too, asking people to boycott the show.
"If you really love animals, you won't go to the circus," Mercer said. "Just buying a ticket prolongs their suffering."
Protesters cite rough travel conditions, cruel treatment in training, and a life of misery -- especially for the elephants.
Although circus officials denied NewsChannel 21's requests to film or see the elephants, they did tell us they believe the protests are unwarranted and unfair.
"Our animals are treated better here than anywhere else," Lange said. "Our elephants live longer than they do in the wild."
Lange said the show visiting Redmond has three elephants, three camels and several horses, ponies and dogs -- all animals who love to work.
"Before the show, the music starts, they get that glint in their eye and they are just ready to come out and perform," he said.
The issue is the topic of our new KTVZ.COM Poll: Are you concerned about how circuses treat animal performers? Weigh in on the poll, halfway down the right side of our home page.
The show starts Thursday, with performances each day through Sunday.
For show times, visit: http://www.ringling.com/TourSchedule.aspx
Protesters will meet in front of the fairgrounds before the shows each day.

Gov. Rick Perry at UTSA: 'Veterans strengthen and enrich Texas'
(July 31, 2009)--Gov. Rick Perry today at the UTSA Main Campus ceremonially signed Senate bills (SB) 297 and 93, which significantly strengthen Texas' commitment to veterans and their families by enhancing their ability to apply their hard-earned educational benefits at Texas colleges and universities.
"Military service places unique demands on the men and women in uniform and their families, and as home to the second most active military duty families in the nation, Texas owes it to them to support their families and welcome them honorably when they return," Perry said. "Last year, I called on the Legislature to extend in-state tuition rates to eligible veterans, and Senate Bill 297 not only grants that request, but also extends that benefit to the spouses and children of our eligible veterans, and waives tuition completely for the children of Texas residents who have been deployed."
SB 297 provides in-state tuition for veterans who are eligible for federal education benefits and to their spouses and children. The bill also provides a tuition exemption for dependent children whose parents are Texas residents deployed on active duty overseas.
"Remembering our service members is more than just a moment of silence on Memorial Day or the raising of a flag on Veteran's Day -- it is an unwavering commitment to our veterans for their service to all of us," said Sen. Leticia Van de Putte. "As chairwoman of the Veteran Affairs and Military Installations, I am honored to play a role in remembering their courage and sacrifice and will continue to search for innovative ways to assist our veterans and their families."
- Allows the spouse of a service member who was killed in action, died while in service, is missing in action, whose death was caused by a service-connected illness or injury, or who became totally disabled for employment purposes as a result of a service-related injury to claim the Hazelwood Exemption
- Creates the Hazelwood Legacy Act, requiring the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board to allow veterans who are eligible for the Hazelwood Exemption to waive their rights to any unused portion of their maximum hours and transfer it to their child
- Clarifies eligibility criteria for the Hazelwood Exemption
"I am very pleased that Governor Perry was in San Antonio to sign such an important piece of legislation for our veterans and their families," said Rep. Joaquin Castro. "SB 93 will ensure that all honorably discharged veterans and their dependents receive the education benefits that we have promised. I am proud to have been a part of this effort for Texas veterans, who sacrifice so much for this country."
"San Antonio has a strong history of support for both the military and higher education," Rep. Frank Corte Jr. said. "It is a great honor to see these bills which will benefit our veterans in obtaining their education signed here at UTSA."

They had to restructure damn near the entire team JUST to get under the cap. Extending Romo surely will free up some cap space and prevent him from walking. But Jerry must know the window is closing pretty fast. The cap hits for this team in the coming years will be insane, and they haven't even given Dez Bryant his big payday..
And I refuse to diss Romo until we fix our secondary.
The same guy you're laughing at swiss cheesed us for almost 800 yards in 2 games last year.

Excerpt: "Antrel Rolle is ready and willing to play his new old role.
The veteran safety, who began his NFL career as a cornerback, found himself back in coverage in Sundays rout of the Packers. And while Rolle has long said he enjoys playing safety, he didnt mind the move.
One thing I like more than safety and my own goals is winning, Rolle said. So whatever it takes to win, that is what I am going to do. I like the role.
Rolle said on his WFAN radio interview on Tuesday that he is back home in Miami getting some treatment on my knee. And when he returns, he just may find himself in a hybrid role again, because it worked incredibly well last Sunday.
Veteran Kenny Phillips, the Giants most reliable deep cover man, returned in that game after a six-game absence due to a sprained MCL, and defensive coordinator Perry Fewell desperately wanted all three of his play-making safeties Phillips, Rolle and interception machine Stevie Brown in action. So he used them all, relying heavily on a three-safety defense to flummox Aaron Rodgers.
The Giants have used three safeties in seasons past, but never like this. Rolle, Phillips and Brown were on the field together for every play of Green Bays first two possessions, and the three-safety, two-linebacker set was the regular defense, until Phillips reaggravated his MCL in the fourth quarter.
Phillips did not return, although Tom Coughlin said the injury was not anything new, and Phillips said on ESPN Radio on Tuesday that he absolutely can play against Washington.
A healthy Phillips likely means Rolle will continue to move around.
Against Green Bay, while Brown and Phillips handled deep responsibilities, Rolle routinely covered the dangerous Randall Cobb. After entering the game with six TDs in four games, Cobb was held to four catches.
I thought he reacted very well to that spot, Coughlin said of Rolle.
Rolles versatility is just one wrinkle on defense. LB Mathias Kiwanuka saw action at defensive tackle and defensive end. Justin Tuck served as a stand-up pass rusher, and on one play, Fewell used four safeties, adding rookie Will Hill. All those tricks baffled Rodgers, who turned in his second-lowest QB rating this season (81.9). Those tactics should also be useful against the likes of Robert Griffin III (Week 13), Drew Brees (Week 14) and Matt Ryan (Week 15.) The three-safety look can be key and Rolle knows it.
I just keep my eyes open and keep myself flexible within this defense, Rolle said. Because I know things can change at any sudden point. Read more...

When considering fencing and building options, property owners need to compare price against durability and/or asthetics.
An "old timer" once said a fence needs to be horse high, bull strong and hog tight. One must also consider if they are fencing their animals in or the neighbor animals out.
The attached Powerpoint shows various fencing and building examples. See barns for more specific barn plans and ideas.
Local farm supply stores provide additional fencing material options to consider. Remember to check local zoning ordinances before beginning construction.

source: Chris Burke (SI.com)POSTED APRIL 19, 20132013 NFL Draft: 50 essential, eccentric factsNFL DRAFTBY CHRIS BURKE
1. Seventy-three underclassmen entered the 2013 NFL Draft, the most ever in one class.
2. OT Lane Johnson, widely believed to be the third best offensive tackle available in this draft, completed 32 of 61 passes as a backup quarterback at Kilgore College before transferring to Oklahoma.
3. Twelve different players ran the 40-yard-dash in under 4.4 seconds at the NFL's combine. WR Marquise Goodwin's 4.27 was the fastest clocked time.
4. DT Star Lotulelei's full first name is Starlite.
5. Of the top seven finishers in last season's Heisman race, only two (LB Manti Te'o and QB Collin Klein) are prospects in this year's draft.

Arthritis Drugs Linked to Lower Odds of Alzheimer's »

Serious Infections
Patients treated with HUMIRA are at increased risk for developing serious infections that may lead to hospitalization or death [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS]. Most patients who developed these infections were taking concomitant immunosuppressants such as methotrexate or corticosteroids.
Discontinue HUMIRA if a patient develops a serious infection or sepsis.
Reported infections include:
- Active tuberculosis (TB), including reactivation of latent TB. Patients with TB have frequently presented with disseminated or extrapulmonary disease. Test patients for latent TB before HUMIRA use and during therapy. Initiate treatment for latent TB prior to HUMIRA use.
- Invasive fungal infections, including histoplasmosis, coccidioidomycosis, candidiasis, aspergillosis, blastomycosis, and pneumocystosis. Patients with histoplasmosis or other invasive fungal infections may present with disseminated, rather than localized, disease. Antigen and antibody testing for histoplasmosis may be negative in some patients with active infection. Consider empiric anti-fungal therapy in patients at risk for invasive fungal infections who develop severe systemic illness.
- Bacterial, viral and other infections due to opportunistic pathogens, including Legionella and Listeria.
Carefully consider the risks and benefits of treatment with HUMIRA prior to initiating therapy in patients with chronic or recurrent infection.
Monitor patients closely for the development of signs and symptoms of infection during and after treatment with HUMIRA, including the possible development of TB in patients who tested negative for latent TB infection prior to initiating therapy [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS and ADVERSE REACTIONS].
Lymphoma and other malignancies, some fatal, have been reported in children and adolescent patients treated with TNF blockers including HUMIRA [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS]. Post-marketing cases of hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma (HSTCL), a rare type of T-cell lymphoma, have been reported in patients treated with TNF blockers including HUMIRA. These cases have had a very aggressive disease course and have been fatal. The majority of reported TNF blocker cases have occurred in patients with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis and the majority were in adolescent and young adult males. Almost all these patients had received treatment with azathioprine or 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) concomitantly with a TNF blocker at or prior to diagnosis. It is uncertain whether the occurrence of HSTCL is related to use of a TNF blocker or a TNF blocker in combination with these other immunosuppressants [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
HUMIRA (adalimumab) is a recombinant human IgG1 monoclonal antibody specific for human tumor necrosis factor (TNF). HUMIRA was created using phage display technology resulting in an antibody with human derived heavy and light chain variable regions and human IgG1:k constant regions. Adalimumab is produced by recombinant DNA technology in a mammalian cell expression system and is purified by a process that includes specific viral inactivation and removal steps. It consists of 1330 amino acids and has a molecular weight of approximately 148 kilodaltons.

What are the possible side effects of adalimumab (Humira, Humira Pen, Humira Pen Crohns Disease/Ulcerative Colitis Starter Package)?
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.
Stop using adalimumab and call your doctor right away if you have any of these symptoms of lymphoma:
- fever, night sweats, weight loss, tiredness;
- feeling full after eating only a small amount;
- pain in your upper stomach that may spread to your shoulder;
- easy bruising or bleeding, pale skin, feeling...

I agree with your sentiment - but part of me thinks a third GP event gets to be a lot for such young girls. And personally, i don't see why all the fuss about GPF. It feels like a somewhat hollow title - similar to 4CC title.
In an Olympic year, Nationals is more important that GPF and 4CC put together.
It is important to be ready, well rested and in peak condition for Nationals this year. Depending on the locations - and amount of travel - one of our young skaters could be a bit ragged after 3 GP events.

5-18-13. Ocala, FL- The NeSmith Crate Late Models, Scorpion Racing Products UMP DirtCar Open-Wheel Modifieds, Bubba Army Hobby Stocks, 1-800-ASK GARY Thunder Stocks, and the Rent-N-Roll Gladiators all tackled the 3/8 mile and it was intense for every one.
Buzzie Reutimann opened the Modifieds up with the lead but lost it to fellow heat race winner Jeff Mathews on lap 5. Reutimann actually spun on lap 8 and collected Paul Snyder which made both driver's nights much more difficult. Cory Hupp spun on lap 16 setting up a 9-lap dash with Mathews leading team-mate Bryan Bernhardt and Chris Littrell. Mathews held his team-mate off for the win while Reutimann and Snyder rebounded to 3rd and 4th, respectively. Littrell rounded out the top 5.
Eric Moon jumped to P1 in the Hobby Stock event and held it through the lap 3 caution for a Don Woosley spin. On lap 8, Moon was overtaken by Brian Shea for the lead and retired on lap 14 after heavy contact with Jerome Dipple. James Erickson got around Shea and then they spun each other after Shea ran out of talent. In the end, Don Woosley took home a huge win simply by surviving (and making his mistake early). Erickson finished 2nd over Shea, heat race winner Rebecca Paugh, and Chuck Cessna. James Sullivan, III won the other heat.
Jeff Mathews made history in the Crate Late Model race that he started from pole in. Mathews lost his lead on lap 16 to Bryan Bernhardt, but regained it when Bernhardt made the same mistake he had made earlier. Mathews became the first driver in the Bubba Clem Era to win in 2 different disciplines on the same night. Bernhardt was twice his bridesmaid with Dalton Myers, Shan Smith, and "Cadillac" Bobby Richardson the top 5. The team-mates, Bernhardt and Tony Stewart Racing developmental driver Tyler Clem, won their heat races!
William Gillam jumped to an early lead in his Thunder Stock but gave it away on lap 4 to Brandon Elwood. Elwood gave it up a further 4 laps later and Brandon Tillander took charge! On lap 14, the Brandon's got hooked together- literally- and fell to the tail. Randy Strehle, a heat race winner, inherited the lead but his engine went sour and gave Gillam the lead once more. Gillam wouldn't relinquish again and became the 2nd 1st-timer of the night and also gained "MAX POINTS." Melvin Fockler finished a solid 2nd while Elwood rebounded to 3rd. Jon Layerd finshed 4th and Chuck Cessna made it a double top 5 night.
Stephen Frankland took his 4th consecutive win in the Gladiators but it wasn't easy. Frankland began slowing and Bill Southard nearly jumped to the lead. Frankland did hold on to tie the division record for most consecutive wins. Southard fiished 2nd, rookie driver Tyler Bryden finished a solid 3rd, and Tom Sheehan finished an outstanding 4th.
Next week the Bubba Army 360 Sprints return along with the Scorpion Racing Products Modifieds, Bubba Army Hobby Stocks for $750, 1-800-ASK GARY Thunder Stocks, and the Rent-N-Roll Gladiators. For more info please visit www.bubbaracewaypark.com or call us at 352-622-9400!
