Rob and the lads were brilliant! After being let down by my local garage I submitted my details on here. Rob very quickly submitted an excellent price saving me £100.00 on my initial quote. He then contacted me to discuss the issue in detail and even arranged for the car to be collected and dropped back off the very same day, in fact he only had the car 5 hours in total meaning less disruption for me. 5 star job lads will definitely be using you again!

I have a very small hive (say one frame of bees) in my home. Understanding that
bees need to go outside for cleansing flights, I have provided a screened area
beneath the hive to represent "outside". The screened area is nothing more than a
1" rim with 1/8" mesh screen stapled to the bottom. The bottom of the box sits on an
inner cover - then the inner cover sits on this screened rim. The bees can go down
through the hole in the inner cover to get to the screened area. The whole thing is
elevated so air can pass under the screen. I have an inner cover on top of the box
with screen over the hole. The bees are inactive for the most part but must be going
"outside" from time to time as I have noticed poop and dead bees in the screened
area. It is pitch dark all day where I have the bees.
I would like to try to simulate spring time. Place small amounts of pollen patties in the
hive, feed sugar water, and move the hive to a lighted room.
Does anyone know if this will work? (i.e. will they start rearing brood) Is it too early to start?

Before the U.S. House of Representatives, Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education Appropriations, Ralph Regula, Chairman
April 24, 2001
Mr. Chairman and members of the Committee:
Fiscal Year 2002 Budget Request
The budget request for Gallaudet University for fiscal year 2002 is $89.4 million, the same as the amount that was appropriated in fiscal year 2001.
Congress has played a vital role in the higher education of deaf people in the United States through 137 years of continuous support for Gallaudet University. Gallaudet's history is closely intertwined with those of the land grant institutions and the historically black colleges and universities. During the Civil War, Congress recognized the role that publicly supported higher education could play in unifying the nation through passage of the Morrill Act. At the same time, colleges were being established to provide for the higher education of the previously disenfranchised African-American population. Gallaudet was established to serve a similar function for the deaf population of the United States. Because the deaf population is widely dispersed throughout the country, it was not efficient or effective for each state to establish a college for the deaf, and Congress recognized that there was a need for a national institution. Deaf people continue to face barriers to higher education, and, as is true for the historically black colleges and universities, Gallaudet continues to serve a vital national function.
Congressional support of Gallaudet represents a commitment to and confidence in the aspirations of individuals with disabilities that is unique in the world. Each year I am grateful to have the chance to discuss with you the opportunities that Gallaudet University has opened to American individuals who are deaf.
Campus Security
This year, I must also mention tragic events that have occurred on our campus. The past six months have been the most difficult of my 13-year tenure as president of Gallaudet, and I believe this period has been the most trying time in the history of the University. As you know, two of our students were tragically murdered and a third was arrested for these horrifying crimes. Because of these terrible events, we have done a painstaking review of our campus security systems. We have determined that, although our campus is very safe and our crime rate is quite low, we must nevertheless do everything in our power to ensure that events like this never happen again. If Gallaudet University is to flourish, we must be able to demonstrate to current and prospective students and their families that our campus is safe and secure. We plan to do everything in our power to ensure that we achieve this goal. In particular, the University plans to increase staffing for the dormitories and the campus security force. We also plan to increase the number of security cameras and improve security at the entrances to the campus.
I also would like to say that I have never been more proud of Gallaudet's dedicated faculty and staff than during the recent crises on campus. They gave selflessly of their time on weekends and during evenings; and, because we did not know the nature of the threat to our campus, they were more than willing to place themselves in potential danger to safeguard the well being of our students.
Government Performance and Results Act
For the past several years, Gallaudet has been engaged in the refinement of our strategic plan and in the process of working with the Department of Education to ensure that our plan fulfills the requirements of the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA). Assessment of progress toward our goals, as tracked by GPRA indicators, is now an explicit part of the budget process. Gallaudet has made progress in achieving all three of its strategic objectives, which focus on: student academic and career achievement, providing leadership in setting the standard for best educational practices for individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing, and establishing a sustainable resource base.
Retention Efforts
In order for Gallaudet to continue to serve a critical function for people who are deaf in the United States and the world, it is vital that we increase the number of students who graduate. To that end, we are using different, but interrelated approaches. We are re-examining our assumptions about learning and teaching and how those assumptions affect the approaches we take to achieve particular student outcomes. We have continued to upgrade our technological infrastructure and infuse the most advanced technology into all of our programs of instruction and research, as well as into our administrative and student assessment functions. As technology redefines the landscape of education and the workplace, Gallaudet is re-examining how it can ensure that our students are prepared to become effective users, consumers, and producers of technology. The University is employing technologies that support all types of learning-including traditional face-to- face instruction, self-paced instruction, and online learning. Gallaudet students, faculty, teachers, and staff are eagerly exploring applications of technologies such as web- enhanced and web-based courses, video conferencing, and real-time captioning. During fiscal year 2000, Gallaudet committed more than $3 million to improvements in its technological base, and during fiscal year 2001, we anticipate spending more than $5 million for this purpose. We plan to continue our investment in this area so that our University and the students who graduate from it continue to be competitive in the market place.
The University is particularly motivated to increase the graduation rate of its students, because of the excellent prospects that Gallaudet graduates enjoy. Data about our alumni, collected over the past several decades, indicate that they have a high rate of success in obtaining productive employment and in earning advanced degrees. Researchers at the University have completed a comprehensive study that provides further information about the success of our deaf graduates. In this study, information was gathered on alumni who either graduated from or left the University prior to1998. Consistent with information collected during the past 20 years, more than 60% of our former undergraduates who responded to the survey went on to graduate school and more than 40% of those earned advanced degrees. This is about twice the rate for a comparison group of undergraduate programs. Also consistent with previous University surveys is the finding that only 4% of bachelor's level respondents were unemployed and looking for work-for graduate degree holders, the corresponding figure was an even more impressive 2%.
Laurent Clerc National Deaf Education Center
Gallaudet also prides itself on the programs we provide for younger learners. The Laurent Clerc National Deaf Education Center is comprised of the Kendall Demonstration Elementary School (KDES), the Model Secondary School for the Deaf (MSSD), and related research, demonstration, and outreach activities designed to improve educational programs for deaf children throughout the United States. The Clerc Center is playing a vital role in serving the extended deaf community by continuing to implement its three priorities for research, development, and dissemination that were established through a process involving public input: (1) Literacy; (2) Family involvement; and (3) Transition to work or higher education. A new programmatic goal will be to find effective ways to work with and educate children with cochlear implants, as these children represent a growing proportion of the deaf and hard of hearing school population.
In keeping with its mandate to serve the Nation's deaf students, the Laurent Clerc Center has been greatly expanding its work with a variety of educational programs throughout the country. The Center is currently cooperating with programs in the following locations: Little Rock, AR; Delmar, DE; Hillsboro, OR; Portland, OR; Baltimore, MD; Upper Marlboro, MD; Staunton, VA; Talladega, AL; Encinitas, CA; Clarkston, GA; Omaha, NE; Ft. Lauderdale, FL; Oakland, IA; Richmond, VA; St. Paul, MN; Dallas, TX; Council Bluffs, IA; Port Richey, FL; Bloomfield Hills, MI; St. Augustine, FL; Pinellas Park, FL; Williamsburg, VA; Oklahoma City, OK; Olathe KS; Danville, KY; Palatine, IL; Baton Rouge, LA; Columbia, MD; Davie, FL; Miami, FL; Milwaukee, WI; Fulton, MO; Moore, OK; Mooresville, NC; Chesterfield, VA; Columbus, OH; Powahatan, VA; Eau Claire, WI; Sioux Falls, SD; Salt Lake City, UT Charleston, WV; Manchester, NH; Brattleboro, VT; Lawrence, MA; Williamstown, VT; Bridgeport, CT; Haverhill, MA; Portland, ME; Malden, MA, Allston, MA; W. Hartford, CT; Tucson, AZ; Fremont, CA; Laramie, WY; Las Vegas, NV; Nesconset, NY; Colorado Springs, CO; Seattle, WA; Wilson, NC; Burbank, CA; Cincinnati, OH; Honolulu, HI; Gooding, ID; Jacksonville, IL; Indianapolis, IN; Trenton, NJ; Framingham, MA; Jackson, NY; Los Angeles, CA; Louisville, KY; Frederick, MD; Flint, MI; Midland Park, NJ; Mill Neck, NY; Jackson, MS; Fulton, MO; White Plains, NY; Rome, NY; Sulphur, OK; Philadelphia, PA; Burien, WA; Hesperia, CA; Providence, RI; Bronx, NY; Scranton, PA; Spartanburg, SC; West Covina, CA; Newark, DE; Knoxville, TN; Austin, TX; Irvine, CA; Fairfax, VA; Vancouver, WA; Romney, WV; Pittsburgh, PA; Delavan, WI; Worcester, MA.
In addition to the legally mandated national mission of the Clerc Center, through which Gallaudet provided services to more than 150,000 individuals and distributed more than 100,000 professional publications and other products in fiscal year 2000, the University provides other services to large numbers of people in the United States. Annually, about 2,000 individuals attend educational programs on our campus in Washington or at our extension centers around the country. In addition, in fiscal year 2000 more than 30,000 people attended conferences and other events for professional training sponsored by Gallaudet through its University level continuing education programs. Through these activities and its many research programs, the University is able to provide information about the educational and other needs of America's deaf citizens at a level that is unprecedented in our history.
Endowment Grant Program
One of our most successful programs during the past decade and one half has been the Federal Endowment matching program. During each of the 14 years, including fiscal year 2001, that this program has been funded by Congress, we have matched at least one million dollars or all of the funding that was available. In two years, we matched amounts in excess of $1 million. A good investment market had increased the total value of the fund to $50 million by the end of fiscal year 2000. This program has been the engine driving our highly successful capital campaign, which has exceeded its goal of $30 million during the past 3 years. At the level of funding proposed in this budget, we have not yet determined whether we would set aside funds for matching or use these funds for other purposes.
Thank you for the opportunity to come before you today. I would be happy to respond to any questions you may have.

Four Pulaski Technical College students and one recent PTC graduate have received scholarships to attend a new six-week summer institute designed to increase the number of minority students who complete degrees in science, technology, engineering and math - or STEM fields.
The program is sponsored by the Arkansas Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation and funded by the National Science Foundation. Nearly 75 students from across the state are attending the six-week institute, which began June 14 at the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff.
Each student receives free room and board during the six-week program. They will live in UAPB dorms and participate in math, computer, biology, chemistry and writing courses. They also will learn college survival skills, participate in recreational and professional development activities and visit four-year colleges and universities in the state. At the end of the camp, students receive a $1,200 stipend. In addition, they will receive an $800 scholarship each semester for two semesters at Pulaski Tech.
Pulaski Tech congratulates the following recipients:
The summer institute is designed to help minority students, particularly recent high school students, make a seamless transition into college, and ultimately, to increase the pool of baccalaureate, masters and doctoral degree graduates in STEM disciplines in Arkansas' workforce. Pulaski Tech is one of eight participating schools in the alliance. Other participants include Arkansas State University, Philander Smith College, Southeast Arkansas College, the University of Arkansas-Fayetteville, University of Arkansas at Little Rock, University of Arkansas at Monticello and the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff.

30 homes evacuated near Superior
SUPERIOR, Mont. - Mandatory evacuations are in place for the Flat Creek and Pardee Creek areas, approximately 30 homes have been evacuated. Area Closure is pending for fire area from Flat Creek to Keystone Creek.
The following is from a press release by the US Forest Service:
"Firefighters began conducting burnout operations on the southwest side of the fire today to eliminate fuel and provide a buffer zone to protect structures in that area of the fire. Fire managers are also continuing to utilize aircraft to keep the fire from spreading to the east. Ten to 12 homes were evacuated voluntarily last night due to the proximity of the fire to residences. Residents were notified of the fire locations and fire behavior and chose to evacuate. Forest Service and local Rural Fire Department engines are providing structure protection where needed. The fire has also spotted to the north and helicopters are being used to suppress those spot fires. Firefighters today will continue to utilize aircraft to stop fire spread to the east and work to establish an anchor point at the base of the fire. Fire managers expect active fire activity to be weather dependent, with more active fire behavior with any increased temperatures, low humidity and windy conditions."
A wildfire that started near Interstate 90 about two miles northwest of Superior had grown to an estimated 700 acres by Monday afternoon.
An incident response team is meeting to determine its attack. Our team there reports smoke has lifted in town and it is now difficult to even see flames.
The West Mullan Fire started at about 5 p.m. Sunday and had burned about 150 acres by 8:30 p.m.
Lolo National Forest spokesman Boyd Hartwig says the fire led to the evacuation of about a dozen residences. Our crew on the scene has been told other homeowners are on evacuation alert.
Fire crews are trying to keep the fire from moving east toward residences.
The fire's hitting Superior hard. The smoke is so thick in Superior, health officials closed the pool and are now urging people to stay indoors.
Parts of West Mullan Road in Superior are blocked off .
Thick smoke has created limited the visibilty in Superior and along Interstate 90 in the area.
Two crews are fighting the fire with a dozen engines while two helicopters drop water. Hartwig says another helicopter is on the way and fire managers have requested two 20-member hotshot crews and three more helicopters.
The cause of the fire is under investigation.

Art collector Guillermo Nicolas donates painting by Alberto Mijangos to UTSA
By Tim Brownlee
Assistant Director of Public Affairs
(Oct. 25, 2005)--"Broken English," a painting by San Antonio artist Alberto Mijangos, recently was donated to UTSA by local art collector Guillermo Nicolas.
"UTSA is grateful to Guillermo for donating this painting and to Alberto for creating it," said UTSA President Ricardo Romo. "I have enjoyed Alberto's work for many years and am pleased that the UTSA and San Antonio communities will be able to view this painting. We now have acquired two of Alberto's paintings for the UTSA art collection."

Mijangos studied at the San Carlos Art Academy in Mexico City and the Art Institute of Chicago. He has lived and worked as an artist in San Antonio for more than 40 years, and has exhibited internationally and in one-person shows in Texas, Arizona, New York and Mexico.
"The painting, 'Broken English,' is precisely what my life has been about," said Mijangos. "It's the portrait of my struggles to catch up with the contemporary world. It's the same struggle that I have had in the last 50 years to absorb and become part of the 'Americana' way of thinking. It's always a little bit of my own background that shows in everything that I do.
"In 50 years of living in this country, I still speak broken English. In my painting, you can see the presence of my origins and my understanding of the universe. You will always find in my work a little piece of the tortilla as a tool as well as the fork."
Guillermo Nicolas donated the painting to the UTSA art collection last spring during Rooms With a View, an annual event benefiting UTSA art scholarships. His art collection was one of the private collections viewed for the 2005 Rooms With a View.
An art patron and collector, Nicolas is president of 3N Management Development, a private commercial real estate firm. A history and art history graduate of the University of Texas at Austin, he serves on the boards of directors of Artpace and the San Antonio Library Foundation.
Nicolas and his family have a long history in the telecommunications industry. He is the grandson of Raoul Cortez, who launched the first full-time, Spanish-language radio station and the first full-time, Spanish-language TV station in the United States. His father, Emilio Nicolas Sr., continued to expand the reach of Spanish-language radio and television.
For more information, contact Arturo Almeida, UTSA art curator, at (210) 458-4101.


text: I understand that teams who are tied will have the same (or almost exactly the same) number of combinations assigned to them out of 1000, but I don't totally get where the actual numbers come from. They're giving the worst team 250 and just working down from there somehow, but I don't quite see how they're doing it. In any event, you're right that it doesn't make much difference for a team like Orlando, which has little chance at getting into the top 3 picks no matter what.

As the modifier 'flash' suggests, flash fucking happens fast, spontaneously, and ends just as quickly. It's the kind of sex that you'll enjoy at specific venues that encourage promiscuity such as private parties or sex clubs. The point is not to indulge in a lengthy, intimate session with one or two people, but to fuck as many yummies as possible in the shortest amount of time (make sure to factor in bathroom and recovery breaks so that you're able to maintain peak performance for each session). Unlike marathon sex, which necessarily implies the fucking of one person for a long stretch, flash fucking is analogous to a series of sprints.
Sonia went to a private party last night and bragged about flash fucking three couples in the span of one hour.

This Morning: Apple Fears and Cheers, Netflix Pricing, Sprint Fully Valued?
Welcome to the new year, dear readers, and welcome back to some things going on this morning in your world of tech:
The Nasdaq Composite Index is down 10.96, or 0.6%, at 1,837.40.
It's here: The staff of AllThingsD, now no longer a publication at Dow Jones, have moved onto a new venture, Revere Digital, run by co-CEOs Kara Swisher and Walt Mossberg, with a Web site, Recode.net, published in conjunction with NBC Universal, along with a companion conference business. Here's wishing them the best in 2014.
Swisher starts off the new year with an item titled After Stellar 2013, "Will Tech Stocks Swell or Swoon in 2014?" Maybe, maybe not, she writes.
Shares of Apple (AAPL) are down $7.75, or 1.4%, at $553.27, after Wells Fargo's Maynard Um cut his rating on the shares from Outperform to Market Perform, while maintaining a $536 to $581 price target, writing that the stock price already discounts margin expansion he's expecting from sales of the iPhone 5S. He's concerned about three things: "1) GM will come under pressure later this year in the iPhone 6 cycle; 2) there is limited amount of incremental market cap opportunity in the existing product segments Apple plays in (including the TV and watch opportunities) without material market share gains; and 3) the balance of power may start to shift back to wireless operators from handset vendors.
On the other hand, Cantor Fitzgerald's Brian White this mornign reiterates a Buy rating, and a $777 price target, writing that after a "challenging 2013," the stock is the firm's "top large-cap pick" for the year, which he thinks will be "a year of innovation."
"Our research suggests Apple has been working hard to excite investors in 2014 with new product innovations," writes White, predicting that based on recent "checks" in Asia, "Apple will ride the holiday momentum into 2014."
Shares of touch-screen technology maker Uni-Pixel (UNXL) are down 15 cents, or 1.6%, at $9.86, following the departure earlier in the week of the company's CEO and COO, with no immediate replacements. Cowen & Co.'s Robert Stone this morning downgraded the stock to Market Perform from Outperform, writing "if UNXL does not deliver on remaining milestones, it may not receive expected payments from preferred capacity partners, and the longer it takes to ramp, the more market share it may cede to other ITO replacement options."
Stifel Nicolaus's George Askew this morning reiterates a Hold rating on shares of Netflix (NFLX), reflecting on reports Tuesday that it is testing a new price scheme for streaming video to multiple devices in the home, the most prominent aspect of which seemed to be a lower entry price of $6.99, as Mashable's Todd Wasserman wrote. Askew thinks the new pricing, if formally rolled out, could add to revenue this year: "We estimate 3Q13 ARPU for Netflix domestic streaming subscribers was $7.98."
"If 10% of Netflix' domestic subscribers moved to each of the two new plans, we estimate domestic streaming monthly ARPU would climb about $0.08 or 1%, suggesting a total company annual revenue increase of about $32 million in 2014."
Netflix shares are down $3.56, or 1%, at $364.62.
Evercore Partners's Ken Sena this morning raises targets on a raft of Internet names, including Amazon.com (AMZN), AOL (AOL), Google (GOOG), Twitter (TWTR), and Yahoo! (YHOO), after concluding that online video advertising is set to surge the next three years, writing that it "will increase to $8.1 billion by 2016, a 37% compound annual growth rate from the $3 billion Magna Global estimates, and in excess of Magna's 2016 estimate of $6.1 billion, or a 24% CAGR, which accounts for about one-third of global."
Twitter shares this morning are up $1.81, or 2.8%, at $65.46.
Shares of Sprint (S) are down 38 cents, or 3.4%, at $10.37, after Cowen's Colby Synesael this morning cut his rating on the shares to Market Perform from Outperform, while actually raising his price target to $8.25 from $7.50, writing that "with Sprint shares up 93% since since NewSprint shares began trading on the NYSE in early July compared to the S&P which is up 12% and 32% since December 12, 2013 compared to the S&P which is up 4%, we believe additional upside in the near-to-midterm is unlikely."
Wells's David Wong cut his rating on shares of Analog Devices (ADI) to Market Perform from Outperform, writing that a slew of lackluster forecasts for the December quarter "creates uncertainty with regard to what chip companies might guide for March 2014/April 2014 quarter revenues." While Wong expects chip revenue to pick up later this year broadly, it could hurt ADI, whose "days of inventory" rose 2 days to 111 days in the October quarter.
Analog Devices shares are down $1.61, or 3.2%, at $49.32.

What will you be cooking for Thankgiving ?
i think I am right in thinking that this Thursday is Thanksgiving in America.
I know that the traditional meal is Turkey and also Pumpkin Pie is cooked for desert .
I was wondering if that is what you will all be cooking for Thanksgiving , or will you be cooking anything different ?
I remember Eddie , when he was here on the forum telling us that he was impressed with the turkey after he had brined it .
This is not usually done in the UK , it does not usually to get a mention on the British TV cooking shows , how do you go about brining a turkey , is it worth the extra effort ?
or do you have any special tips that you use when cooking the Turkey.
I only cook a whole turkey at Christmas time , in recent years I have cooked the Turkey slowly overnight as I have forund that with many households cooking at much the same time the power supply is lower than normal. This works well and frees up the oven for cooking the roast veg later in the day.
Once the turkey is in the oven it self basted as I make a sort of aluminium foil tent to roast it in, so it needs no attention at all and always perfectly cooked .
The only issue that I have with cooking the turkey with this method is that you have to wake up to that smell of roasting turkey which for me as a veetarian is something that I really do not like , but to my family , it just smells like Christmas is happening !

Re: What will you be cooking for Thankgiving ?
Nice tip on the turkey.
I am not a fan of cooking a whole turkey. I like it divided up in parts so that I can control the cooking time of each piece. Mainly because if you overcook the breast it dries out. I can remove the breast when it is done and let the legs/thighs continue to cook as they need to. I do not brine and never had it but I hear good things about it. The trick is to get the right ration of sugar to salt and brine it for the appropriate amount of time. Way too much chemistry to ensure success for me.
Other typical side dishes for us are gravy, stuffing (I am a FIRM believer in cooking stuffing outside the bird), mashed sweet potatoes, roasted brussel sprouts, cranberry sauce, glazed ham, corn pudding, apple pie and pumpkin pie.
I also make a refreshing salad with shaved fennel, shaved apple, toasted pecans, pommegrante seeds and a dressing made with lemon juice, orange juice, and olive oil.

Re: What will you be cooking for Thankgiving ?
I'll make a turkey breast; cornbread stuffing with nuts, apples and sausage; mashed potatoes; gravy; cranberry sauce; green beans sauteed with shallots and pumpkin mousse. I want to make stock with the bones for soup and for using with leftovers.

We will have a turkey breast, stuffing, sweet potatoes, corn, cranberry sauce, gravy, green beans, rolls and pumpkin pie. My daughter and I are dividing the cooking this year so more may pop into the menu.

Re: What will you be cooking for Thankgiving ?
I'd forgotten Thanksgiving was coming up. It's not traditional here, but I do like stealing other people's holidays. It makes it very low-pressure because there are no expectations. We had a Thanksgiving night last year and we did turkey cooked in bits - roasted the crown, slow-cooked then fast-roasted the legs - plus roasted squash, sweetcorn, mashed potatoes and gravy.
To be honest, the piecemeal turkey method turns out well, but it's a lot of hassle to me. Last year I did a turkey in the slow cooker for a pre-Christmas party and it was great, literally plop it in and forget it. Takes about five hours, comes out nice and moist, and you can brown it in the oven for about 20min just before the roast potatoes go in, then leave it to rest. You need an enormous slow cooker (mine is a 6.5 litre CrockPot) and the biggest turkey you can do is about 9 pounds, but a 9 pound turkey will feed a lot of people and it's just a very low-stress way of doing it.
Edit to add you get a good amount of great stock out the bottom of the slow cooker from doing a turkey like this, really top-quality stuff. However, it doesn't have that roasted flavour. If you want that, you'll need to pre-roast your turkey in a very hot oven for 15min before putting it in the slow cooker. Alternatively, use chicken wings to make the gravy, Jamie-style, and keep the slow-cooker stock for soup. Just don't throw it away. It's amazing. Real gelatine stock - sets solid if you let it cool.

Re: What will you be cooking for Thankgiving ?
I have "adopted" a young US gentleman who has permanent residency here and is applying for dual citizenship.
I asked him last weekend if he had anything planned for "next Thursday" (now tomorrow). He looked at me blank faced.
I'm making him pumpkin pie.
I did have several recipes for brining turkey. They seem to have been lost in my relocation. If you Google it and go to a reputable site, they will put you straight. Large pan/pot/bucket and salt and water is what I remember most.
I admit that I've never brined but I know many who swear by it. I think I managed to keep the moisture in the turkey by pre-ordering from a reputable poultry shop and by covering the turkey in fatty bacon and tenting it in foil until the final "brown off" time.
We don't celebrate Thanksgiving here. Wrong season for one thing plus the history isn't shared/ recognised. Would make more sense here in April/May.
I used to do a whole turkey for Christmas and enjoyed the ritual (temperature aside). But now we go down the seafood and salads route. Often do a boned, rolled and stuffed turkey breast for New Years Eve, though but I serve it cold on New Years Day with more seafood and more salads and bits and pieces.

Re: What will you be cooking for Thankgiving ?
We don't have the history, either, but any holiday which glorifies mashed potato is OK with me. It's sadly underrepresented in festival fare.

Re: What will you be cooking for Thankgiving ?
hippytea, your braised turkey sounds interesting. I guess it can be recreated in the oven keeping the bird covered completely because I don't have a slow cooker and don't ever plan on having one. It sounds a bit of a soggy mess because we all like crisp skin, but I guess giving it 20min uncovered should do the trick.

Re: What will you be cooking for Thankgiving ?
When I make chicken soup, I take the legs/thighs out when done and crisp the skin under the broiler (salamander). The breast skin is pretty delicate and tears and falls off the meat. I suppose it's a bit more firm on a turkey, but that would be my concern, to keep it intact so when you do crisp under high heat, it's covering the meat well . . .
eta: Will definitely try your method HT as I'd like to make turkey stock . . . and will get extra turkey this year as the price is the lowest right now or right after the holiday. We waited a bit late to shop! May have to get a frozen bird and put it under running water.

On Tuesday, November 6, Americans will vote in the presidential election
On January 20, 2013, a new presidential term will begin. But who will take the Oath of Office? Will it be President Barack Obama for another four years or a new President, Mitt Romney? On Tuesday, November 6, Americans will vote to determine the answer to that question.
According to nationwide polls, Obama and Romney are locked in a tight presidential race. In the days leading up to the election, both candidates traveled around the country, making speeches and trying to win over undecided voters.
Swinging by the Swing States
In many states, where citizens have largely voted Democratic or Republican in the past, it is possible to predict which candidate will most likely receive the majority of votes. But there are several states where the outcome is too close to call. These are known as swing states or battleground states, and they are very important in determining the winner of the election.
Since these states are considered to be up for grabs, the candidates have spent the final days of their campaigns trying to win over voters there. On Monday, Obama was scheduled to visit Wisconsin, Ohio and Iowa. Romney planned to spend the day making stops in Florida, Virginia, Ohio and New Hampshire.
The Final Plea
Republican candidate Romney promised voters that if elected, he would work closely with Democratic lawmakers. "On November 6, we're going to come together for a better future," he told a crowd in Iowa on Sunday. "I'll reach across the aisle to people in the other party because this time demands bringing America together."
Obama, the Democratic candidate, also promised to focus on cooperation. "As long as I'm President, I will work with anybody of any party to move this country forward," he told voters in New Hampshire on Sunday.
While Obama worked to convince voters that he needed four more years to finish the job he started in 2008, Romney tried to show that a vote for him is a vote for change. Both candidates say this year's winner will be determined by which of their campaigns can get the most supporters to the polls. "It's going to be a turnout election," said Obama.

The past three or four days I've been cramming for upcoming spring and my first bee hive...so much cramming that the wife is getting upset.
My plans are to till up my yard and reseed it with new grass and several different types of flowers. What I'm wondering is if I reseed by mid March to early April, will my new flowers have time to help my new hive at all?
I'm still working on the list, but so far I would like to plant three different types of Echium, white and possibly red clover, and sunflowers.

text: Hello all. I am a new Beek living in very rural WV. Trying to do this with/by the book. So far pretty good I think. I have Carnies, 2 hives, and have already added the 2nd super. My question is, when to add the third ? Checked the hives this morning and one has all of the second hive made into combs but not filled. Do I go ahead at this time and add the queen excluder and super or do I let the frames start filling ?

Smith has no strong coaching staff ties to the Giants, but New York is needy at linebacker and could consider Smith as a 31-year-old stopgap solution, assuming the price is right. We also like Chicago as a fit. New Bears defensive coordinator Mel Tucker has coached Smith for the past four seasons.

The Daily Lick: The First Date Formula
Our resident repo man in charge and advisor extraordinare dishes on how to create the perfect first date, leaving behind a particularly shiny pearl of wisdom for one lucky reader.
Ron Shirley (of Lizard Lick Towing fame) joins us for seven days of The Daily Lick, wherein he answers the varied questions sent to us by Playboy.com readers. Prepare to hear about anything and everything from spicing up your sex life to what to do when faced with an albino anaconda. Check back here daily to get the advice you need, bo'!
I have a date this weekend, but I'm lost! How do I take the woman of my dreams on the perfect first date?—Juliano, Roberts, Wisconsin
Every girl is different, bo', but I can tell you this for sure: make the date about her. Do what she wants to do, not what you want to do. If you want to find out anything about a woman, all you gotta do is listen, because they'll damn sure talk. And be yourself, of course—because who you are on that first date is who she's gonna expect on that second, third and fourth. And don't be something you ain't: no matter how much mud you put on a pig, it's still a pig. That's how it is with pigs: a lotta people like to wrestle and dance with 'em, but in the end, the only thing that happens is, you get dirty…and the pig has a lot of fun.

Madison has always been the type to keep a guy around for only a few days and then dump him. But when someone catches her eye and she can't shake him off what does she do? This guy is like no other guy she's ever seen or met before....Something's different.... He drags her into his world forcing her into unknown territory. She feels lost and slightly scared---She's never been in love before and she's never wanted to be. Serious relationships aren't her thing, but she'll soon be finding out that she can't just shake him off like all the other guys. "He's like a poison in my system---I can't shake him off! He drags me in and I'm trying to stay away, but I can't...I guess its just in his DNA."

Very nice apartment with a wonderful terrasse with a beautiful view to Sacre Coeur.Quite a place to enjoy your breakfast or a drink at night. The apartment has everything you need during your stay. We were greeted upon arrival by the very hepful caretaker and had acces to the Apartment at 11:30.
The neigbourhood is not the most exciting compared to say Marais, Montmartre etc., but Stalingrad Metro is only a short walk away and will take you whereever your favorite spots are. We had trouble getting a taxi to the airport, but Patrick was very helpful. If you want to spend your vacation in Paris this Apartment is really something special and you feel at home right away.
What a great appartment! Having breakfast on the green terras was a great way to start the day. The metro is very near; molin rouge about a 20 minute walk.
Great trip!
Patrick's apartment is unique. The terrace is a marvellous space with a stunning view of Montmartre. The apartment is spacious and intriguingly furnished with Chinese artefacts. The area is extremely easy to negotiate and very handy for Gare du Nord and the Stalingrad metro. The nearby canal area is buzzy - with cinemas, restaurants and bars. We had a great five days.
One of the best choices we have taken regarding Apartments on Wimdu until now. Great Flair and lovely furnished apartment with a nice and cosy terrace :-)
Connections with Metro just 2 minutes walk from the Flat.
The area is crowded area (Apartment very quiet, no noise from the street) with inhabitans from mix'd cultures.
The Houseman met us outside when we arrived and showed us the Apartment and gave us the keys at elleven in the evening and was very friendly with now extra cost of late arrival :-)
Thanks to patrick and the Houseman for making our time in Paris to an beautiful 5 days City Trip.
Recommend it for everyone..
Conny & Björn
Thanks nice place to stay ;) be carefull with small kitchen knife its very sharp ! :) enjoy
Beautiful apartment in a very convenient area for exploring Paris. Has everything you could need.
This apartment has a great location (a stroll from Stalingrad metro which has 3 lines) and 1 stop from Gard du Nord. The apartment is spacious & very tastefully done with wifi, and the kitchen is well stocked with utensils, and a great view of the sacre ceour fom the terrace is attached. We had arrived & checked out late, and Patrick was courteous to arrange the keys through the ever smiling Montreuil. Many cafes on the nearby canal as well.
Only drawbacks were that there was no access to a dishwasher & cupboard space so we had to live out of a suitcase - which can be difficult for longer periods (we stayed for 7 nights).
The apartment of Patrick is really good!
The reception was very friendly.
We really enjoyed these few days in Paris and considered the apartment real as our temporary home.
From the apartment there was a magnificent view of the Sacre Coeur.
In the evening we took a short walk to the Bassin de la Villette, where we enjoyed the restaurants there.
In short: perfect apartment.
Thank you Patrick for your beautiful, special, outstanding appartement!! I could write just positive things about it. The setup, the furnitures, the style, the terrace ...everything was very nice. I felt in love in Paris, and that's because of your flat,too.. :) I can recommend it for everybody!

Gun store will open next to Andrew Jackson Elementary School
KINGSPORT, Tenn. - We have new facts on a gun store setting up shop next to Andrew Jackson Elementary School in Kingsport, Tenn.
We found out the store will open now that the city has approved rezoning the property.
Freedom Firearms store owners were getting ready for opening day on Wednesday.
"We should be full force by the second week in January," said owner Rodney Pierson.
Kingsport's Mayor and Board of Alderman unanimously approved re-zoning of the property on Tuesday night. It allows Pierson to sell firearms at that location.
"It feels great," Pierson told us. "I'm glad we got approved."
The store is right across the street from Andrew Jackson Elementary School, which is why they had a hard time getting the re-zoning approved.
Kingsport City Schools spokesperson Andy True told us, however, that they support the city's decision to allow the store to sell guns.
"It's up to the city to make that call and we understand and trust that they've vetted the process thoroughly as they've gone through the decision making process," True said.
Andrew Jackson has the district's most updated security to keep students safe if guns get into the wrong hands, True told us.
"This year we rebuilt the entire front entrance so it is a more safe, more secure environment," said True.
Visitors have to be buzzed in through locked doors and then sign in on a computer. They have to make it through another locked door after that to get access to the school.
Across the street, Pierson was preparing his own security system.
"We'll lock our guns up when we leave," he said. "We've got bars so we'll lock the bars, the alarm systems, I mean all of this is completely protected."
He told us no one can enter or leave the store with a loaded gun.
They will have a few assault rifles, Pierson said, but background checks will be required for all gun sales.
Pierson told us children won't be allowed in the store without a parent.

I would like to try raising my own queens next year. I've got about a dozen hives in my backyard. Can anyone suggest an easy queen rearing system for a newbie? First-timer success rate is probably the most important factor to me. I only want to make about a dozen or so queens, so I don't need something oriented towards large production volume.
Just the name of an appropriate system is all I need. I can research it once I know what I am looking for.

The University of Colorado Boulder is ranked No. 4 in the nation for graduates serving as Peace Corps volunteers with 93 alumni currently serving around the world, the Peace Corps announced today.
Since 2004, CU-Boulder has held a position in the top four among institutions of similar size. CU-Boulder is the fifth highest volunteer-producing university of all time with 2,353 undergraduate alumni having served in the program since it was established in 1961.
"CU-Boulder is a consistent top performer for Peace Corps and our team is proud of the university, their leadership and students," said Mike McKay, southwest regional manager for Peace Corps. "This school is always providing highly qualified and competitive applicants who are committed to service and making a difference in their local communities and communities abroad."
The University of Michigan, also with 93 volunteers, ties with CU-Boulder on the Peace Corps' 2013 Top Colleges list. The University of Washington and the University of Florida both ranked No. 1 with 107 volunteers each. The University of Wisconsin-Madison ranked No. 3 with 103 volunteers.
"CU-Boulder students and alumni have a legacy of service," said Chancellor Philip DiStefano. "A national Peace Corps leader year after year, it brings great honor and pride to the CU-Boulder community as our service-oriented students go on to become citizens of the world."
The Peace Corps ranks its top volunteer-producing schools annually according to the size of the student body. Large schools have more than 15,000 undergraduates, medium-sized schools have between 5,000 and 15,000 undergraduates, and small schools have fewer than 5,000 undergraduates.
Western Washington University ranked first among medium-sized schools with 73 undergraduate alumni currently serving and Gonzaga University ranked highest among small schools with 24 undergraduate alumni serving.
"We're very pleased to have ranked in the top four for Peace Corps for a decade now," said Peter Simons, director of CU-Boulder's Institute for Ethical and Civic Engagement, which offers numerous service learning programs for students. "It shows our unwavering commitment to service and advancing communities."
In 2010, CU-Boulder became part of the Peace Corps Master's International program, which allows volunteers to combine Peace Corps service with a master's degree program and receive credit for their Peace Corps service abroad.

A few weeks ago Sandra Bullock made her long-awaited return to the public spotlight when she appeared on The Today Show to talk about her new baby son Louis Bardo as well as the somber 5 year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. Last night, RadarOnline informs us that Sandra ventured out in public again but this time she did so here in SoCal … in West Hollywood, CA more specifically … at The Abbey in particular. Here is a fun photo of Sandra and a scantily clad male dancer at the bar last night:
Come on, Sandra — it's OK to take a peek! The Blind Side star seemed to be taking a blind eye to some hunky 'man-candy' at The Abbey — a popular gay bar — located in the heart of trendy West Hollywood, and RadarOnline.com has the brand new pics. The Oscar winner seemed to be enjoying herself on the couch late Thursday night, chatting with some pals as the bar's scantily-dressed go-go boys roamed the establishment, entertaining its patrons. The new mom left the bar around midnight.
Atta girl … when life gets you down, you go to a gay bar and whoop it up with the hotties! My guess is that Sandra got dragged to The Abbey last night but, then again, it's possible she went there of her own volition. Britney Spears is known to visit The Abbey every now and again and Dame Elizabeth Taylor shows up all the time. It's nice to see Sandra out and about and having a good time again … I wonder if she'll be hanging out in West Hollywood any more this weekend.

How to gamble if you must—the mathematics of optimal stopping
Theodore Hill
Every decision is risky business. Selecting the best time to stop and act is crucial. When Microsoft prepares to introduce Word 2020, it must decide when to quit debugging and launch the product. When a hurricane veers toward Florida, the governor must call when it's time to stop watching and start evacuating. Bad timing can be ruinous. Napoleon learned that the hard way after invading Russia. We face smaller-consequence stopping decisions all the time, when hunting for a better parking space, responding to a job offer or scheduling retirement.
The basic framework of all these problems is the same: A decision maker observes a process evolving in time that involves some randomness. Based only on what is known, he or she must make a decision on how to maximize reward or minimize cost. In some cases, little is known about what's coming. In other cases, information is abundant. In either scenario, no one predicts the future with full certainty. Fortunately, the powers of probability sometimes improve the odds of making a good choice.
While much of mathematics has roots that reach back millennia to Euclid and even earlier thinkers, the history of probability is far shorter. And its lineage is, well, a lot less refined. Girolamo Cardano's famed 1564 manuscript
De Ludo Aleae, one of the earliest writings on probability and not published until a century after he wrote it, primarily analyzed dice games. Although Galileo and other 17th-century scientists contributed to this enterprise, many credit the mathematical foundations of probability to an exchange of letters in 1654 between two famous French mathematicians, Blaise Pascal and Pierre de Fermat. They too were concerned with odds and dice throws—for example, whether it is wise to bet even money that a pair of sixes will occur in 24 rolls of two fair dice. Some insisted it was, but the true probability of a double six in 24 rolls is about 49.1 percent.
That correspondence inspired significant advances by Abraham de Moivre, Christiaan Huygens, Siméon Poisson, Jacob Bernoulli, Pierre-Simon Laplace and Karl Friedrich Gauss into the 19th century. Still, for a long time there was no formal definition of probability precise enough for use in mathematics or robust enough to handle increasing evidence of random phenomena in science. Not until 1933, nearly four centuries after Cardano, did the Russian mathematician Andrey Kolmogorov put probability theory on a formal axiomatic basis, using the emerging field we now call measure theory.
The history of optimal-stopping problems, a subfield of probability theory, also begins with gambling. One of the earliest discoveries is credited to the eminent English mathematician Arthur Cayley of the University of Cambridge. In 1875, he found an optimal stopping strategy for purchasing lottery tickets. The wider practical applications became apparent gradually. During World War II, Abraham Wald and other mathematicians developed the field of statistical sequential analysis to aid military and industrial decision makers faced with strategic gambles involving massive amounts of men and material. Shortly after the war, Richard Bellman, an applied mathematician, invented dynamic programming to obtain optimal strategies for many other stopping problems. In the 1970s, the theory of optimal stopping emerged as a major tool in finance when Fischer Black and Myron Scholes discovered a pioneering formula for valuing stock options. That transformed the world's financial markets and won Scholes and colleague Robert Merton the 1997 Nobel Prize in Economics. (Black had died by then.)
The Black-Scholes formula is still the key to modern option pricing, and the optimal-stopping tools underlying it remain a vigorous area of research in academia and industry. But even elementary tools in the theory of optimal stopping offer powerful, practical and sometimes surprising solutions.

We've just witnessed the last days of large, single chip GPUs
Posted on 31st Mar 2010 at 11:15 by Richard Swinburne with 33 comments
We know each major architecture change for GPU development takes at least a few years to mash out, so fabless companies such as Nvidia need to guess where fabrication partners - TSMC in this case - will be.
As it stands, TSMC has had more than a rough year with its 40nm node and there's been considerable stress for both ATI and Nvidia - however, to ATIs advantage, it started on 40nm with the Radeon HD 4770. It's clearly not forgotten the lesson came at the expense of the HD 2900 XT, which first arrived on a massive 80nm die, before being respun into TSMCs then upcoming 55nm node at a more digestible price.
Luckily for Nvidia the GTX 480 isn't quite up to the HD 2900 XT par of failures; at least it's faster than the previous generation and, negating the lateness and practical engineering issues, the die size and power use are truly massive.
The thing is, TSMC hasn't yet demonstrated how commercially viable its next fabrication node (likely 28nm) is, so while we fully expect Nvidia to 'pull an ATI HD 3000 series' in six months time and re-do Fermi with a smaller process, resulting in a much more power efficient GPU, TSMC's troubles - and the fact Nvidia is desperate for a new process - means Nvidia is likely looking to Global Foundries, the manufacturing firm spun off from AMD last year.
