Geologic Resources Inventory and Monitoring
The National Park Service (NPS) inventory and monitoring program documents the status and trends of natural resources on park lands. Natural resource inventory and monitoring information is used to assist park managers in decision-making processes and ultimately in resource protection.
The NPS collects data for a set of 12 "basic" natural resource inventories. In the featured programs section, below, information is provided for two of the 12 natural resource inventories, the Geologic Resources Inventory and the Soil Resources Inventory. Information is also provided on geologic resource monitoring in parks. The collection of baseline inventory information on geologic and soil resources and the initiation of long-term monitoring programs to alert management to changes in resource conditions are essential to comprehensive natural resource management.
Featured Programs
Geologic Resources Inventory
The Geologic Resources Inventory (GRI) helps parks understand the role geology plays in the landscape and environment. The GRI identifies geologic resources and related geologic issues in parks and provides this information to park managers in reports and geologic maps. Learn more...
Geologic Monitoring
Monitoring geologic change in national parks is an essential component of environmental monitoring and assessment. Changes in the physical environment are often an early indication of forthcoming ecosystem change. Learn more...
Soil Resources Inventory
The Soil Resources Inventory includes soil maps and soil data. This project helps parks to secure the information needed to manage soil sustainability and to protect water quality, wetlands, vegetation communities, and wildlife habitats. Learn more...
Park Maps
A variety of park maps are available. General maps, topographic maps, geologic maps, and digital geologic maps have been created for many national park lands. Learn more...

Patriots win girls' golf title on Tuesday
The Pequot Lakes Patriots easily captured their second Section 6AA girls' golf title in three seasons on Tuesday, June 4, at Blackberry Ridge Golf Course in Sartell.
The Patriots assumed a 27-stroke lead on Monday, May 3, after the first day's first 18 holes, and they maintained that lead through nine more holes in the rain-shorted section play on Tuesday. Pequot Lakes, which is believed to have set a school record with a 303 on Monday, finished with a two-day 478 total to easily top runner-up Cold Spring Rocori with 506 and St. Cloud Cathedral with 511.
"After seeing some scores this season, I honestly thought it would be about five strokes separating Cathedral, Rocori and us," said Pequot Lakes coach Jon Dale. "I thought it would be tight, but we just played outstanding."
The Patriots were led by sophomore medalist Maggie Heggerston, who combined for 109 for 27 holes, and senior runner-up Savannah Stone, who finished with 111. Other Pequot Lakes scores were Amanda Nies with 128, Sam Olmscheid with 130, Alex Stone with 137 and Megan Snyder 141.
"We've had so many meets this spring that we haven't had a lot of time to practice," Heggerston said of the rescheduled meets because of the late spring. "We were finally able to practice in the past week, and I worked on my pitching and driving. That made a difference today."
On Monday, Savannah Stone fired a 70 and Heggerston carded a 71 to give Pequot Lakes a big opening-round lead.
"I knew it would come down to Savannah or me," Heggerston said of medalist honors. "It's awesome being on the same team with a great golfer like Savannah. We can push each other, and that makes me a better player."
Stone added that she was excited to win section as a senior.
"It's such an accomplishment," she said. "I'm happy that we're going back as a team. Everyone shot their best rounds at the same time."
Coach Dale agreed.
"Amanda (Nies) had a career best round with 81 on Monday, and Sam (Olmscheid) was close to her career best," Dale said. "We're excited to go back to state where we finished fourth two years ago."
The Patriots advance to the Class AA state meet at Ridges at Sand Creek in Jordan on Tuesday and Wednesday, June 11-12.
Team scores: Pequot Lakes 303-175 — 478, Rocori 330-176 ¬— 506, St. Cloud Cathedral 334-177 — 511, Osakis 350-181 — 531
Section medalist: Maggie Heggerston (Pequot Lakes) 71-38 — 109
State qualifiers: Marja Sorensen (Rocori) 114, Emily Israelson (Staples-Motley) 116, Nicole Vossen (Kimball/Eden Valley-Watkins) 120, Alayna Eldred (Osakis) 121, Lucy Gaetz (St. Cloud Cathedral) 122
Pequot Lakes results: Savannah Stone 70-41 — 111, Maggie Heggerston 71-38 — 109, Sam Olmscheid 81-49 —130, Amanda Nies 81-47 — 128, Alex Stone 87-50 — 137, Megan Snyder 91-50 — 141
Staples-Motley results: Emily Israelson 78-38 — 116, Ann Kautto 91-46 — 137
Stone, Patriots win
Savannah Stone took top individual honors and Pequot Lakes won the team title at the St. Cloud Cathedral Invitational on Wednesday, May 29, at Wapicada Golf Course.
Pequot Lakes and Cathedral both came in at 346, but the Patriots prevailed in the fifth-score tiebreaker. Stone's round of 77 was one stroke better than Emily Israelson of Staples-Motley.
Team scores: 1-Pequot Lakes 346, 2-St. Cloud Cathedral 346, 3-Staples-Motley 350, 4-Monticello 371, 5-Becker 371, 6-Osakis 372, 7-Albany 403, 8-Big Lake 404, 9-Annandale 422, 10-Milaca 443, 11-Sauk Centre 453, 12-Pierz 455, 13-Melrose 474
Individual medalist: Savannah Stone 77

Reviews for this host's other properties
I had a wonderful time at Sladana's apartment. She is a very hospitable and polite person and gave me a lot of good tips for my time in Zadar. The apartment was very cozy and clean. Thank you Sladana!
We had a very nice stay at Sladanas Apartment. The rooms are very nice furnished and really clean. That made our stay in Zadar even better. We enjoyed the quiet balcony and had a lovely time. Thank you for having us!
Sladana is very gentle and hospitable person who introduced us to her hometown with all of details and worthy tips. We had a wonderful time at her place, calm and quite, surrounded by fruit trees in the garden. Hope to be able to visit Sladana place and Zadar soon. Thank you, Sladana, for these lovely 2 days!
A very nice place to stay in the center of zadar! Comfy and spacious, with airconditioning for the hot summerdays. Sladana is a very sweet host and gave us great tips for our stay. Thanks a lot!
Very good service from Saldana who had been amazing with us from day 1. She explained us what to visit in zadar and even gave us a map.
The house is very trendy and clean, we were amazed by the house.
The only thing is it was not possible to cook but apart from that, everything was great.
Sladana welcomed us friendly in her living room and proposed us some drinks. She gave us information about the sightseeing's in Zadar.
The interior of the house was modern, new, practical, hygienic and we could use a common permanent cleaned bathroom (with a bath). There was also a hair dryer. Furthermore, she told us that there was not a chance to take the bathroom towels to the fitness.
Although mentioned in our reservation that there would be a little kitchen and a fridge, there was only a microwave. But she gave us utensils and a plate. The room was clean, modern and big enough for two persons.
The internet connection was only working for 5 minutes.
We had a little conversation about the history of Zadar and the Balkan war, she was a friendly person.

Charlie Hebdo attack unites France on free expression, but will solidarity hold?
The attack on the French satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo has sent shock waves through France and beyond. Not only because 12 people have been killed in cold blood and many were wounded in what was the deadliest terrorist attack in France since 1961, when right wingers bombed a train killing 28 people. Not only because, after an attack in neighboring Belgium last May and French citizens joining extremist fighters in Syria and Iraq in recent months, the country feared something dramatic might happen soon, and that it eventually did.

Laura Evelyn Budil, 95, of Hackensack, died peacefully Dec. 3, 2012, at her home surrounded by love.
Laura was born Jan. 21, 1917, near Lewiston, Minn., to Emil and Sophia (Burfeind) Steuernagel. She attended and was confirmed at St. John's Lutheran Church at Lewiston and graduated from the Lewiston High School. Laura became a beautician and worked in Winona, Minn. She then boarded a bus for Chicago with a suitcase in one hand and her bowling ball in the other. She was signed up for a bowling league in Chicago before she had found a job or a place to live. While in Chicago, Laura met and married her dear husband, Frank Budil, on March 31, 1962. Laura and Frank moved to Hackensack, Minn., in the 1970s, where Frank worked until his retirement.
Laura quickly became an active member of the community. She volunteered as a hairdresser at Ah-gwah-Ching, as a driver for seniors and as an active member of the Hackensack Senior Center. Laura loved to cook and bake. She made many gallons of homemade sauerkraut and pickled beets. Laura was best known as the beloved "Pancake Lady" for the Lions Club breakfasts. For 35 years, Laura made gallons of pancake batter from her special recipe. Laura was one of the first two female members of the Lions.
Laura loved her two "weiner" dogs and often house sat for a multitude of friends and their pets. She loved playing cards with her friends. Until recently, she was an active member of St. Paul's Lutheran. She loved her Lord.
Laura was a dearly beloved member of the Hackensack community, and she blessed many, many lives with her vibrant and unique spirit. She will be greatly missed!
Laura's family wishes to extend their sincere gratitude to the special caregivers, Mary Parrish, Jan Bedel and Jerry Bryant, who daily surrounded Laura with loving care.
Memorials are preferred to the Hackensack Senior Center or St. Paul's Church.

The past year has seen ample controversy and titillation surrounding breastfeeding. In May, we had the Time magazine "Are You Mom Enough?" cover, which portrayed a three-year-old boy sucking on his mother's breast — a provocative image meant to sell magazines that ballooned into a national conversation about parenting. Later that month, two Air National Guard moms stirred further agitation when they posed breastfeeding in uniform. Over the last few months, celebrities (we use the term loosely) such as Pink, Alanis Morissette, and Mayim Bialik have reiterated their support for breastfeeding. Now the topic is set to heat up in greater Portland.
This month, a coalition of local public-health organizations is launching the "Whenever, Wherever" campaign with the goal of breaking down social and logistical barriers to breastfeeding in public spaces around Southern Maine. With the slogan "Breastfeeding: We All Benefit," the group hopes to bolster support for and acceptance of nursing moms, and thereby increase both the number of women who breastfeed in Maine and the length of time for which they do so — all of which will make our communities healthier.
Starting in July, the Whenever, Wherever (WW) action team, comprised of public-health workers and volunteers, will approach local businesses and municipal spaces and ask them to become WW members. Those who agree will commit to displaying a sticker (akin to the Buy Local logos we are accustomed to seeing in Portland shops) and an employee education poster. They'll offer "acceptance and support and to give mothers a choice of seating [and] spaces," says the campaign website, weallbenefit.org. "Members will also agree that mothers will never be harassed, treated poorly, and asked to leave, cover up or move as a result of breastfeeding."
According to Maine law, "a mother has the right to breastfeed her baby in any location, whether public or private, as long as she is otherwise authorized to be in that location." But an informal survey of about 20 local moms conducted earlier this year by the We All Benefit coalition showed that women don't always feel comfortable exercising those rights. When asked to list public places that they consider to be "non-welcoming places for breastfeeding," respondents pointed to everything from grocery stores to Wal-Mart to restaurants to church.
In those spaces, the women said they felt stress, anxiety, shame, and self-consciousness, among other negative emotions, while feeding their children. "It really makes me angry. I do not eat in the bathroom and neither will my son," one woman wrote. "People look at you as if you are pole dancing, naked," said another.
In contrast, when asked to describe how they feel in breastfeeding-friendly places (which they identified as mostly courtyards, parks, and beaches), the local respondents reported relief and relaxation. One woman said that in such locations, she is "happy to be able to be in public and not have to into a bathroom or my car." Rebecca Howes, a Gorham mom of two who is part of the WW action team, points out that breastfeeding "can be really challenging at first," and that public support can be a crucial determining factor in whether a mom perseveres.
There were no reports of outright shunning or harassment. But the fact that women feel uncomfortable is reason enough to take action, according to Zoe Miller, who works to promote public health in the Lakes Region and who, along with community health specialist Jackie Rogers, spearheaded the WW campaign.
"What I've heard is people feeling like it's not welcome," says Miller, who is herself a breastfeeding mom of two. The atmosphere is "not outright hostile, but it's unsupportive."
Over the past few years, big names like Target, Whole Foods, and Walmart have come under fire for objecting to public breastfeeding. This had led to organized "nurse-ins" — including a few in Maine — during which moms breastfeed in public as a form of protest. Organizers are quick to point out that the Whenever, Wherever campaign is not meant to be confrontational, nor is it aimed at mothers who choose not to nurse (see sidebar, "A Personal Choice, Judged In Public," by Katy Sargent). If anything, it's meant to reward businesses that are proactive on this issue. "This isn't about what the moms are doing," Miller explains. "It's about what the rest of us are doing."
Representatives of local establishments like Longfellow Books and the Portland Public Library, as well as the Portland Regional Chamber, which represents 1400 businesses, all said they were aware of the law and supportive of nursing moms.
But lip service and reality can sometimes diverge, especially in a society where you are much more likely to see breasts in a sexual context than a nutritional one. The US Surgeon General addressed this phenomenon in last year's "Call to Action to Support Breastfeeding," a comprehensive document outlining national nursing rates and barriers to breastfeeding.
"For many women, the feeling of embarrassment restricts their activities and is cited as a reason for choosing to feed supplementary formula or to give up breastfeeding altogether," the Call to Action says. "In American culture, breasts have often been regarded primarily as sexual objects, while their nurturing function has been downplayed. Although focusing on the sexuality of female breasts is common in the mass media, visual images of breastfeeding are rare, and a mother may never have seen a woman breastfeeding. As a result, women may feel the need to conceal breastfeeding, but they have difficulty finding comfortable and accessible breastfeeding facilities in public places."
Perceived inconvenience is another reason why mothers sometimes choose not to breastfeed or only do so for a short time. Childless people in particular might wonder why, for example, a mom can't wait half an hour to nurse when she gets home from running errands.
"I think a lot of folks have that question," Rogers says. "Babies get hungry everywhere! Infants often don't have a set feeding schedule, and many need to eat frequently . . . Moms move around and live their lives in a lot of different locations and none of these locations should prohibit a baby from eating. No one ever questions a mom bottle-feeding her child at a grocery store, right? It isn't about the mom breastfeeding, it is about the child eating."

|Topic Review (Newest First)
I am moving this thread here:
That turned out to be the last picture before I tore it down and moved all the plants to another tank.
I swapped out the bulb for a stronger one, added pressurised CO2, a cooling fan, and basically turned this tank into a high tech tank.
Behind the bush at the back, you can see a panel. Behind the panel there is the same Maxijet 1200, a ceramic CO2 diffuser is placed underneath the intake.
It's been a while, I just trimmed, bleached, and replanted most of the plants.
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
I recently moved the tank across the room, I thought it warrants an update. I also took the opportunity to modify the light stand. Apart from minor difference in arrangement this is how the tank looked like for quite a while.
Looking at the original post date, the tank has been running for more than 18 months. During this I would say I have learned quite a bit regarding plant.
The tank has suffered bouts of neglect, some plants do better than the others. But the only one that does well is submersed anubias nana petite. So I thought, why not made a tank with just it. That would be the ultimate low maintenance tank.
Speaking of low maintenance, the initial goal of have only the fish waste fertilise the plant, has been a catastrophic failure. It seem to work when the only plants in there are submersed anubias nana petite. When having the regular anubias nana, it will always show nutrient deficiency. When I was having it emersed, I could never dose enough N or have enough fish for it not to have yellow tips. Now that it is completely submersed, I have to dose 6ml of Seachem Flourish N weekly, along with P and K. That is more than twice the recommended dosage, I never thought it could happen to a low tech tank.
I suspect it has partly to do with the vigorous surface agitation which provided it with significant CO2 supply. It is the plants that are directly in the path of MaxiJet 1200 (15x turnover per hour) that shows the most nutrient deficiency. I reduced lighting to 7 hours to reduce nutrient consumption. I wonder if reducing flow would reduce nutrient consumption further? Which No dosing is my goal but it doesn't look like it will happen with the plants in there.
While I failed in the low maintenance department, the tank never had any algae problem. I attribute it to the low light and the vigorous flow. There are hints of green brush algae on the centrepiece wood but that's about it. During the tank move I took the opportunity to spot treat Seachem Excel. Some of them has turned pale now.
Navyblue's 22G Custom Rimless
I took the hands off approach for a while. And when I came back from a trip, the tank looked somewhat horrible.
There was a rather thick surface film. The anacharis had mostly melted. The rotala that were growing is now turning brown and melting. The water sprite are also started to melt.
Not sure what had gone wrong. My guess is the light was too strong and the CO2 was too little. The surface film is likely impeding the CO2 exchange. I did some water change and try to skim off the film but there are still some of it left. And I think I am going to change the photoperiod from 10 hours to 2x4 hours split photoperiod.
I removed the dead and dying plants and added more new plants. On a positive note, the anubias had sprout new leaves and the jungle Val had sprung out new plantlets through its runner.
I added 5 Sakura shrimps yesterday, but I only saw 4 max. I think all of them are female and most are berried. This morning I found 2 dead shrimps, and only saw 2 at most. However I also saw a 2mm or so long transparent shrimp, one of them seemed to have given birth.
I also saw some tiny crawling stuffs that is even smaller than the tiny shrimp I saw. What are those? Are there copepods in FW tank?

|I like the shape of this tank. I have been pondering building something similar but a bit shorter.
I know I said I am almost done with plants, but I added more again. I think I am done for good now, I really have no time to do all that planting. But I also removed the water wisteria.
Maybe you should add a variety to each section of the tank instead all just one type of plant. or maybe just move them a little within their section so it isn't too 'crop-ish' unless that's what you're going for ^^
ah well you can always make changes later when your tank is more ready and you want to add more plants in.
I have a pet peeve. I don't like having things pushed against the viewing panels (all 3 of them), so the border area is kind of off limit for anything. I can make the border less boxy looking but that border has to stay.
As for the pebbles, I like the look of it in the middle around the wood (you probably can't see it in the picture). As for the borders it does look off to me too. But it was either this or the bright orange. My feeling is after that orange patch in the middle is covered (and also the column on the right), the pebble would look less like a frame and more like the ground.
Do you mean the foreground stem plants? I agree it looks too neat to be natural. To me it looks like crops growing in the country side. But that may be the direction that I seem to be going. I do think that patch of plants can be improved. The problem lies in I don't seem to have anywhere else to place them. Which is why it is in a neat row. As mentioned I can't push it to the side. I also can't push it to the back as the area is shaded by the anubias above (in the photo you can see that it is black, and I filled it with pebbles).
I also dislike the right rear corner, which to me lack definition. In an ideal world, I would remove the wisteria and move the bacopa in the middle to the back. Then I'll have a large piece of moss wood to cover that area along with the "hole" that I mentioned earlier. But I already have the plant, and in the short term I need good nitrate absorber like this.
|i think you should clear up the middle area and move the center row of plants to the left side along the tank side. Stagger it out try not to be too neat with planting (as in straight lines and such) be more 'natural'. That's what i think :P idk about the rocks they look kind of off :/ hmm.
I think one of the problem of this tank is it is too brown. I got some dark coloured pebbles to try cover up the exposed substrate. There is still a patch of brown in the middle that I reserve for the java moss that I have yet to add. After that the brown would be much less than before.
|I put in a Seachem Ammonia Alert today. I have some rotting squid that I have in the tank for a week or so. It is kind of hard to tell the colour, it could be yellow (>0.02ppm), or between yellow and green (0.05 ppm), but definitely under 0.05ppm. I wonder if I can remove the rotting squid and start introducing a small number of cherry shrimps?
Well that is encouraging.
At the moment, I am inclining towards cherry red shrimps and cardinal tetra for their hardiness. Low maintenance is a priority for me. I think I'll add may be 3 pairs of shrimps and wait till it gets to a nice population before I add the cardinal.

Mount Shasta, Calif. —
The Mount Shasta City Council tonight will be considering an ordinance that would prohibit cloud seeding and bulk water extraction by corporations, according to a recent press release from the Mount Shasta Community Rights Project.
The release states that the ordinance has enough voter signatures to be adopted as law by the council at tonight's meeting or to be ratified by voters in the November elections.
The ordinance, titled the "City of Mt. Shasta Community Water Rights and Self-Government Ordinance," will be promoted by Thomas Linzey, executive director and founder of the Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund, and Kirsten Moller, executive director from the group Global Exchange.
The ordinance reads in part, "Another purpose of this Ordinance is to recognize and protect the inalienable rights of the natural environment of Mt. Shasta, including the right to exist and flourish, free from damage caused by alteration of natural water systems and cycles or introduction of toxic and potentially toxic substances. Disturbing natural water cycles, including rainfall, the recharging of aquifers, and interfering with access to water by human and natural communities are explicit prohibitions imposed by this Ordinance, to protect Rights.
"A further purpose of this Ordinance is to recognize that it is an inviolate, fundamental, and inalienable right of each person residing within Mt. Shasta to be free from involuntary invasions of their bodies by the application of corporate chemicals into the environment as a result of the violation of the provisions of this Ordinance."
The full ordinance can be read at www.shastacommons.org [2]. The meeting is at 6:30 p.m. at the Mount Shasta Community Center, 629 Alder St.

Finding the cheapest auto insurance quotes in Arizona may seem like an impossible task, however it is incredibly easy once you know where to look, what you want from your coverage, and what you need from your policy. Each of these things will help you to find the best policy for your auto insurance and ensure that you are getting the greatest deal on the policy that you want. Though you may or not have insurance requirements, you should ensure that you request all of the same options on all of your quotes to make comparisons easier.
Where to Look?
There are many options available when you are looking for the cheapest auto insurance quotes in Arizona, as just about every company around will give you an insurance quote. All you need to do is call or visit the websites of these companies are request a quote with the particular necessities for your policy, and they will give you a quote. It is that easy and takes only a few minutes as well as a bit of persistence to get through all of the requests. However you can also try sites that will provide you multiple quotes based on the policy that you want.
Knowing What You Want
Knowing what you want from your insurance will help you to discover the cheapest auto insurance quotes in Arizona. If you want to ensure that you have comprehensive coverage as well as collision coverage, then request a few quotes, see the price difference and determine if it is worth it. In some cases people will stick to only the necessities in an attempt to save as much money as possible while also ensuring that they are covered in the case of an accident that isn't their fault.
Understanding Your Needs
There are simply some things in your insurance policy that you will need to have regardless of what anyone says. You have to have bodily injury insurance, however you don't have to put more than the state's requirement of bodily injury although it doesn't hurt to have extra protection. When beefing up your insurance plan you should always add Collision, comprehensive, and other more specific coverages to ensure you can get your car replaced if you are in an accident. You will also be able to enjoy paying less since it is unnecessary.

Six years after making his first NRL grand final appearance, Cooper Cronk believes Melbourne's big-game experience can give them the edge in Sunday's clash with Canterbury.
Cronk is one of eight players in the Storm's 17-man squad to have played in a premiership decider, having appeared in the 2006, 07, 08 and 09 deciders.
In comparison, only Krisnan Inu, Sam Perrett, former Storm prop Aiden Tolman, David Stagg and Dene Halatau, who's likely to be 18th man, have tasted what it's like to play in the biggest game of the year.
Cronk was only 22 and in his third NRL season when the Storm lost the '06 final against Brisbane and admits he was unprepared mentally for the enormity of the occasion.
And the Queensland and Australia halfback has warned Canterbury's youthful halves pairing of Josh Reynolds and Kris Keating that merely aspiring to win will be no good to them against the Storm.
"Back then I had an OK season, and it was my first year of playing halfback," Cronk told AAP.
"I sort of hoped we'd finish the year off well and I didn't perform.
"It was a lesson. You need have the belief and confidence to know how to go out there and execute your plays well not just hope you can."
Cronk also said the build-up to a grand final can often be as difficult to handle as the game itself.
"Grand final week is a big week and there are a few things that can throw you off track," he said.
"The hardest challenge is to keep football at the front of your mind. You have to make sure when you get out there you do all the little things that got you there in the first place.
"A few guys in this side have played in GFs, and that may help us. But only if we all do our jobs well."
Despite Reynolds' and Keating's lack of experience, Cronk believes having Des Hasler in the Bulldogs corner is a huge advantage.
"Experience is important, but what better man to have there as coach than Des," he said.
"Not many people have won two premierships, and those two boys and Benny Barba, who's been the best player this year, can only benefit from that.
"Des knows how to handle grand final week and he'll have them ready."
Storm skipper Cameron Smith is unsurprised at how quickly Hasler's made his mark on the Bulldogs and said the grand final will feature two of the best coaching minds in the game.
"He's a bit like Bellyache (Bellamy), no matter where he goes he will have an affect on any player," Smith said.
"The biggest thing I've seen from the Bulldogs is their toughness in defence.
"We played them in Mackay and we had four or five sets on their line and they defended them. It pretty much won them the game.
"You see what he did at Manly, and he's done exactly the same with the Bulldogs."

Excellent info, thanks
Excellent info, thanks
I'm planning on making one of these jigs this weekend. I was wondering if anyone has made one using the changes to the dimples sizes that plinker762 suggested. If so, how
were the results?
It depends on what rivets you are using. The 9/32 works best with US made rivets (5/32) like Mcmaster -Carr. The 5/16 works best with the metric rivets like the ones from the 1-PAT group buys. Either will do the job though.
I'll be using 5/32 rivets, so the 9/32 ball mill it is.
Thanks chief.
Do you think this fixture could work with out being welded? maybe some good 1/4'' bolts?
Bolts should work fine, there's little lateral stress on the jig.
I have a daughter. I tell her, "911 is what you dial after you're raped. 1911 is what you should have before they try."
This would be much more meaningful with pics...
God so loved the world He gave his only Son...
...Believe in Him and have everlasting life.

Pet snake leads Jacksonville parents to be charged with child abuse
JACKSONVILLE - Jacksonville Police charged Jeremy Lawrence, 24, and Ashley Galicia, 20, both of Jacksonville, with misdemeanor child abuse Sunday.
The parents are accused of leaving their two-year-old boy in the same room as a four foot snake and also allowing the child to wander away from the home. That's according to court documents.
The incident happened at a residence located on the 200 block of Court Street in Jacksonville Sunday morning.
Court documents state that Lawrence and Galicia allegedly left the back door accessible for the child to open and walk outside unattended.
"He pulled the chair up to the door, unlocked it and got out," said Galicia, mother of the two-year-old child.
Galicia said she been sleeping and didn't hear her child leave the home. A short time later, a passerby found the the child across the street, near a creek and called 911.
Galicia said the incident was a mistake and that she realizes her child could have been harmed.
"Police came and checked the house out," said Galicia. That's when investigators found a four foot snake inside the home. "They got extremely mad because I have a four foot boa," said Galicia, "and they said that was endangering my child even though it [the cage] is locked."
Galicia said her snake is well-fed and not aggressive. Additionally, Galicia said she's taken steps to ensure that the snake does not get out of its cage.
"I got the really strong duck tape and wrapped it around the tank," said Galicia. "That way him nor my son could pull the lid off of it."
Bond was set at $500 each for both parents. They are scheduled to be back in front of an Onslow County Judge on January 16.
Family members said the parents are not allowed to be with the child without supervision. Galicia's mom, Gena Galicia, has temporary custody of her child.

Reviews of this property
This studio is located very close to Il Duomo, on the 4th (top) floor of an old building -no elevator. While not having a view, it is bright thanks to a skylight and another high window. The large bathroom window and the small bedroom window can be opened so that there is plenty of fresh air. Comfortable bed, excellent bathroom and kitchen. Check-in and check-out was easy.
very nice location in the heart of Florence, the Duomo in 15 minutes walk from the station, spacious apartment a little run down but ok.
trés bel emplacement, au coeur de Florence à deux pas du Duomo 15mn à pieds de la gare, appartement spacieux un peu vétuste mais correct.

Our stay in Florence was wonderful (I apologize if I leave my review only now!) And accommodation in this apartment was perfect. Very nice, spacious, friendly, and located in a strategic area to be able to walk to all the downtown attractions. It was very quiet and we rested well. I recommend everyone to stay in this apartment of great charm! Thanks again for your warm welcome and hope to soon!

Raccomando a tutti di soggiornare in questo appartamento di grande charme! Grazie ancora della calorosa accoglienza e spero a presto!

The apartment was in the center of Florence, near the Duomo.
It was very well equipped, with all the details, very clean, and has made us very comfortable. For us, we just had one catch and that was on the third floor without elevator.
I want to thank our host, willingness and kindness helped us to make our stay in Florence more pleasant, giving us all we request explanations.
El apartamento estaba en el centro historico de Florencia, muy cerca del Duomo.
Estaba muy bien equipado, con todos los detalles, muy limpio, y nos ha hecho estar muy comodos. Para nosotros, solo hemos tenido una pega y es que estaba en un tercer piso sin ascensor.
Quiero agradecer a nuestro anfitrion, su disposición y amabilidad que nos ayudo para que nuestra estancia en Florencia, fuera mas agradable, dandonos todas las explicaciones que le solicitamos.
The apartment was exactly as described: quiet, centrally located and equipped with everything you need. We felt immediately at home. The owner gave us a lot of helpful tips on cheaper restaurants, shopping and attractions. The week in Florence will be remembered for a long time in your memory.
Die Wohnung war genau wie beschrieben: ruhig, zentral gelegen und ausgestattet mit allem, was man so braucht. Wir fühlten uns von Anfang an zuhause. Der Vermieter gab uns viele hilfreiche Tipps bezüglich günstiger Restaurants, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Sehenswürdigkeiten. Die Woche in Florenz wird uns lange in guter Erinnerung bleiben.
great location in Florence, confortable and spacious appartment, good beds.
For my wife and I and my three daughters aged 13, 15 and 17 years, this was the perfect base for 10 days in Florence. On the second floor in a small street we could be after each immersed in the bustle of the city, quiet place to be. No view, but before you go out anyway. Facilities (kitchen, bathroom) were okay, even with three fans and one air conditioning unit in the living room. Furthermore, we also got two sets of clean sheets and towels. Osvaldo manager was helpful. All in all a good value for money.
Voor mijn vrouw en ik en mijn drie dochters van 13, 15 en 17 jaar was dit de perfecte uitvalsbasis voor 10 dagen in Florence. Op twee hoog in een klein straatje konden wij telkens na te zijn ondergedompeld in de drukte van de stad, rustig toeven. Geen uitzicht, maar daarvoor ga je toch naar buiten. Voorzieningen (keuken, badkamer) waren oke, met ook nog drie ventilatoren en een air conditioning apparaat in de woonkamer. Verder kregen wij ook nog twee sets schone lakens en handdoeken. Manager Osvaldo was behulpzaam. Al met al een goede prijs kwaliteit verhouding.
I would start by saying this apartment could not be better placed, it's position next to the Uffizi and a stones throw from the Ponte Vecchio could not be bettered. The apartment itself was situated in an unpreposessing road both narrow and dark, with evidence that close neighbours might be using their premises for night work.
If the building it was in was 14th century as described I would be astonished, think servants quarters rather than home of anyone else. The description led us to believe that the apartment had been renovated in 2012, if I had paid for the renovation I would ask for my money back. Most things in the kitchen worked but not the oven, to get to the second bedroom one had to go through the first not terrible but inconvenient at times,

The first part of my working life was spent in an accounting office which taught me that I hate counting, and for that reason I avoid counting mites. I am hopeful that incorporating a brood break and keeping bees in 5 over 5 frame nucs will allow me to avoid worrying about mites.
I think that between Mike Palmers (MP) nuc method, and Mel Disselkoen's "Outbreeding the mite theory" is the sweet spot in maintaining an apiary free of mite treatments.
Mike's nucleus methods are well documented here, but Mel's are less so. The OP asked if there was any scientific evidence to support the brood break as a viable method of mite control, and in a nutshell I haven't seen any.
MP observes that his nucs don't need treating for mites but doesn't posit any theories as to why, and in addition to the nucs he overwinters colonies in 2 deeps and a medium (if memory serves).
Mel starts a fresh queen laying after June 22 from a split, and overwinters in a single here in the midwest. Roland overwinters in a single. I am overwintering the majority of my colonies in 5 over 5 frame nucs.
5 of my 18 nucs did not get a brood break this summer, and I am curious to see their survival rate as compared to my others that by spring will have endured two brood breaks - the one where their queen emerged and waited then mated and the other enforced by winter.
I haven't treated my production colonies for mites. I have 11/12 alive so far in 10 frame equipment. Yesterday it was -16F in the morning, and all my mites are phoretic. If my production colonies live I intend to take a leaf out of MP's book (please hurry up and write one) and use the best as a basis for nuc making. I will consider surviving production colonies a bonus, otherwise I think of them as caretakers of comb for next years splits.
I will throw out another complimentary theory here that comes from processing the anecdotal evidence from the extensive experience of MP, Mel, and Roland. What if the answer is what the bees tell as when they want to swarm? They want a cavity the size of a single deep. They want this volume because it is the size that they have evolved to overwinter in most successfully, and, for undetermined reasons, this volume best suits the bee and the numbers therein least suit the mites.


text:
DeeAnna, what on earth are you going to do with the answer to this question? If he did use HBH, does that mean to you that treatment free doesn't work? What about his hives? Were they made in some natural manner with absolutely no trace of 'unnatural' method (I assure you that they were not, unless a tree grew them)? What about the hive stand? If they are cement blocks, does that detract from the 'I do not treat for mites' methodology in you mind?
Heh. What about your grass? Do you cut it with a mower? That's certainly not 'free of treatment'. Did you have someone transport your hive/package/nuc with a horse? I hope it wasn't fed with bailed hay (at least not bailed by something running on fossil fuels.)
Understand the point. Otherwise you spend you life missing the forest for the trees.

Broadmoor neighbors raise concerns about road closure through golf course
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - Some fear an upgrade at the Broadmoor could come at the expense of safety and convenience for those living west of the luxury resort.
Broadmoor leaders said it's part of a $60 million - $100 million improvement plan that includes elongating the golf course. The idea is that a longer course will attract more tourists and major golf events.
The third meeting on expansion plans occurred on Wednesday.
It included experts from the City of Colorado Springs answering questions about what it takes to close a well-used road like Cheyenne Mountain Boulevard through the golf course.
City leaders told the crowd that the road closure issue is something that the city council would consider and not the planning board. According to the city, the last time it did a use assessment on that stretch of Cheyenne Mountain was in 2001 and the daily usage was close to 900 cars per day.
The latest study was done by the Broadmore and it determined close to 2000 cars per day take that stretch. Because fewer than 2,500 drivers use it daily, Cheyenne Mountain is not considered an arterial or a collector road but a neighborhood road.
Cheyenne Mountain is used by residents of Broadmoor Heights, those who live off Penrose Road and visitors to Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.
Many with objections to the road closure are worried about the traffic and safety impact of pushing more traffic onto Penrose or a narrow alternative like Marland Road.
Some believe Broadmoor leaders should consider building a tunnel under the golf course if they want to close Cheyenne Mountain.
"The people up the mountain from Penrose Boulevard are the ones that are going to be adversely affected but I think the tunnel is the win-win solution to this issue," said Matthew B. Wills who lives on Marland Road.
Broadmoor leaders said they've already analyzed how the closure would impact traffic and emergency routes. According to their study, the neighborhood west of the hotel off Penrose is around 700 plots of land.
Hotel CEO Steve Bartolin said even with the road closure, an evacuation route through the Broadmoor property would still be available to residents west of the hotel. He said he looks forward to discussing those options with firefighters and emergency managers when the hotel submits the request to close the road later this year.
"What's good for the Broadmoor is good for the neighborhood," said Bartolin.
The Broadmoor leaders said part of their expansion plans include wildfire mitigation in parts of Cheyenne Mountain where they plan on expanding.
The next set of meetings are June 4-6 at Broadmoor Hall from 6 - 8 pm. For more information, call 719-577-5833.

I was even debating on whether or not to use a smoker with my top bar hive, but I live in Florida and the feral bees I come across tend to be a tad hot, if not completely just wanting to completely wipe me off the face of the planet. (and, oh my, may even be Africanized). Yes, I know I could re-queen, etc, but I have to work with them a bit to even undergo that operation, even if I choose to re-queen. To be honest, I'm quite fascinated with their spunk. I know they are survivors.
So, what is the best, cheapest, most readily available material to use in smokers that would tend to be on the "healthier" side for the bees, if that's even possible?
Pine needles?
Oak leaves ?
Oak sticks?
Hemp ? (I don't have any, feds - chill out)

More High School Grads Choosing Workforce over College
The FiveThirtyEight website features an article this week suggesting more high school graduates are choosing work over college. According to the United States Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics, just under 66 percent of the graduating class of 2013 attended college last fall. This is the lowest percentage of graduates since 2006 and the third decline in the past four years. The drop in college enrollment is attributed two factors: (1) an improving job market and (2) the rising cost of higher education.

[quote user="RugDaniels"]I agree a lot of the 49ers hate/envy is gone. Even that terrible 2002 game is fading away. That's why Sunday's game is awesome, a rivalry is being renewed.
I'm sure there are NFL fans out there who wanted to see a Packer / Saints shootout, I'll take the slugfest this game is looking like its going to be any day.[/quote]
Especially since our two teams are in it right?
The big factor in this game that few are talking about is Eli in the pocket. I've seen the stats, Eli is fantastic (as are his WRs) at the deep ball. But will he have enough time? One reason why I think SF's oline won't struggle nearly as much as people think they will is because the 49ers don't throw up the deep ball very often. (Also, on a side note, I'm not afraid of NYG's LBs, I dont even know who they are. If the 49ers can block down the NYG line, and get Gore/Hunter to those LBs, good things will happen.) The other, like I have mentioned, is that they do really well against teams that only rush their 4-down linemen. SF will not need the kind of time NYG will from their oline.
But anyways, back to Eli. He shouldn't have the kind of time GB gave him. The Smith Bros. and McDonald and Brooks are very good rushers. They won't allow Eli the kind of time to throw the long patterns. If I was NYG, I would throw quick patterns to slow the rush of the 49ers (who btw were like the 2nd least blitzing team in the league). Like I said, the 49ers CBs are extremely beatable. Brown is not that talented and Culliver is a rookie who plays nickel (which NYG figures to be in a lot). If NYG can continue the big plays they've been getting from Nicks this post-season and from Cruz all year long, they've got the game won IMO.
Like I said, looking forward to the game (Sunday can't come soon enough!!) and may the best team win. No BS from the Refs or anything.

Shy Toddlers: Language Skills Delayed?
Some toddlers are little chatterboxes, and some are shy and barely speak at all. New research suggests that shy kids understand what is being said to them, but choose to clam up when it comes to responding
The study looks at why shy children seem to develop language skills more slowly than other toddlers. This issue comes up quite often because delayed speech has been linked to social struggles later in life.
Are these shy little ones unable to produce language or simply choosing not to speak? According to study researcher, Soo Rhee, a psychologist at the University of Colorado in Boulder, the shier kids don't show any language attainment delays.
Quite a few toddlers have shy temperaments, about 15 percent. The 12 to 24 month-olds exhibit what is known as "behavioral inhibitions." They tend to be bashful around other people, cling to and hide behind their parent's legs, and shy away from new experiences.
Why do shy children seem to speak less proficiently than their more extroverted peers? Scientists have their theories. Perhaps these children avoid interaction, so they get less practice speaking. Or the language struggles may come first, making children reluctant to interact with others. Another theory held that shy children aren't delayed at all; rather, extroverts are ahead of the curve.
Finally, some studies hinted that shy toddlers aren't really delayed — they "know it, but won't say it," Rhee and her colleagues write in an upcoming issue of the journal Child Development.
The study involved 408 families with same – sex twins in Boulder County, Colorado. They conducted home visits and had the children come into the psychology laboratory at 14 months of age, 20 months and 24 months.
At these visits, the researchers assessed each child's temperament by observing how much they cried, clung to their parent or exhibited self-soothing behaviors such as thumb sucking. They also tested language development by asking each child to imitate sounds, ask for help and follow directions. These tests determined how much language a child could produce, and separately, how much he or she could understand.
The shy children did show delays in their spoken language compared with more outgoing kids, the researchers found. But there was no such link between temperament and receptive language, or how much language a child understands.
The good news is that the lack of speaking wasn't related to any actual language impediment.
The researchers looked at the growth in language skills over time relative to each child's behavior. If they found that initial shyness led to initial language struggles and to less growth, it would suggest the kids weren't practicing speaking enough, explaining their deficits.
On the other hand, if the link between shyness and language showed up in expressive (spoken) language, but not in receptive (understood) language, it would support the notion that shy kids are functioning at the same language level but not displaying their talent. The latter was the case in this study.
And while delayed speech can be a sign of undiagnosed developmental problems, parents of shy kids may not need to worry. The researchers didn't look at brain development directly, but the patterns they found suggest there wasn't anything wrong with the shy participants physically or developmentally.
"One worry that we have is that shy children might just be underestimated in terms of their language abilities, so parents and teachers might not make as much of an effort to speak with them," Rhee said. "It seems perhaps that with children who are shy, one needs to make more of an effort to help children develop their expressive language abilities."
Other tips for helping your shy toddler develop a more outgoing personality are:
- Don't refer to your child as "shy" in front of him or her or others. Being labeled often feels like a criticism. You might try saying "He takes his time getting comfortable with people he doesn't know or sees often."
- Offer encouragement. Praise your child if he or she reaches out to others. Ask friends and family members to focus on the act and not how long it took to do it.
- Be sympathetic. Let your little one know that you understand how they feel. Sometimes even adults feel a little shy when they meet new people.
- Don't avoid social situations. You might think you're protecting your child from uncomfortable feelings, but in reality they need to learn – even if slowly – that being around others is normal and a part of life. You may want to arrive early – for larger gatherings (such as birthday parties) – to give him or her more time to relax and settle down.
- Choose familiar locations. Choose activities that involve smaller groups in quieter and familiar environments. A story hour at the library is a good option. Museums that have dedicated children's areas are also fun.
- Most importantly, don't criticize or belittle your child. You might think this is a given, but having a very bashful toddler can be frustrating for a parent. Nothing crushes a child's confidence faster than unkind words. Teasing your child can also make them feel more vulnerable and hurt. There's nothing positive about making your child feel bad. Let them know you love them just the way they are.

Does any one know if Maxant is going to offer free shipping for the holidays? I am going to order a 16gallon bottling tank. Was going to go with a Maxant or a Kelly tank while they have free shipping. Jake are you around today???
Does any one know if Maxant is going to offer free shipping for the holidays? I am going to order a 16gallon bottling tank. Was going to go with a Maxant or a Kelly tank while they have free shipping. Jake are you around today???
why not email Maxant and ask??
Jake may give you free shipping anyway since you're a Beesource member. Send him a PM.
No silly, it is in the dining room now where all good extractors are kept. Wife said either you or it out of the bedroom.
It wont fit through the doorway (29inches) into the spare bedroom which I have turned into my honey room. I have 30 or so boxes of Deeps that yet need to be extracted and the honey warmer (Temp controlled converted Refrigerator). Knotweed and some BB. All the fireweed 3 pallets of deeps is going to be extracted at my friends house on his big cowen 60 and 300 gallon holding tank. Not sure if I will bucket or barrel it.
I emailed, them I was asking here because I did not think anyone would be at Maxant today. Because I was going to order from Walter Kelly while they had free shipping. But, wanted to go with Maxant first since Jake has such a great reputation for customer service.
Maxant emailed me back. They said they have not made a decision on whether they were going to offer free shipping or not this holiday season. So I went ahead and ordered a bottling tank from Kelly.
Here is the one from Kelly https://kelleybees.com/Products/Deta...3333&grouped=1
Here is the one from Maxant http://www.maxantindustries.com/bottling.html
There normally is not tax on internet sales here in Fl. Unless the Company also has a store in the state. Like Dadant. If I order from Dadant I have to pay shipping and also sales tax. The in state Dadant store is about 1 1/2 hours from the house so I normally only order from them for big orders and I will go pick it up. For smaller orders I normally just order from another company.
Your link did not work. Is this a Maxant 1400? https://kelleybees.com/Products/Deta...30333933373333 Seems to have the same model numbers.
Here is the correct link for the bottling tank https://kelleybees.com/Products/Deta...3333&grouped=1 Oh that is a Maxant also. I did not know that.
The Maxant one is $999 + shipping, and the same at Kellys is $1225 with free shipping? I'm confused. Did the OP achieve any savings?
Actually, I have never bought any extracting or bottling equipment. I have picked it all up from beginners with big fantasies who crash and burn when they figure out it is not the get rich quick scheme their dreams and spread sheets indicated it would be.
I hope you're not referring to ESB, he's a good guy and certainly not cheap and greedy like someone else I know.
So speaking of Bottling tanks what is best the 16 gallon or 25. It is only a couple hundred more for the larger. I and also torn and think the smaller one as my training tank.
So JohnG is that working well for you?

We have a 16 gallon Maxant bottling tank and really like it. My main reason for going with the 16 was due to space and I could also use common 5 gallon paint filters for this size vs having to buy special filtering cloth in the rolls. I had Kelley make me a custom filter to sit on top of the Maxant bottling tank that I alligator clip to the paint filter to. Works wonderfully.

I also purchased the Maxant 16 gal. bottler in October. I forgot how nice they were. Many years ago I had the larger bottler. It was a matter of space for me this time. We run under 100 hives but i'm sure i'll keep it busy. I'm thinking that I will buy another one that way I can separate my light honey from my darker honey and have two tanks to bottle from. I have always liked Maxants quality.
"Tradition becomes our security, and when the mind is secure it is in decay".....Krishnamurti
Here's an update. I ended up with the Maxant 16 gallon bottling tank. I absolutely love it! Shipping was not near as bad as I was expecting. I had the tank within three days of placing my order. It is a very well made tank. I thought about the 25 gallon tank but, I'm glad I went with the smaller one. At least until I add on to my honey kitchen. LOL
Thanks guys. They just quoted me 70$ in shipping so that is way cheaper then driving to Oregon to get it. So that comes out to 999 +50 (ndv) +70 (shipping)=1,124. Better then Kellys and has the correct stickers on it. So I will order it this weekend in time for Santa to stuff it down the chimney, Sure hope he does not dent it.

If I had the money, I would buy the Jets from Woody Johnson, move them somewhere out west that might want a pro football team (Oklahoma, maybe), and rebuild them as a solid, hardworking franchise. This would have several net effects: 1) create a good football team with good values, 2) Make the AFC east a little more competitive (though it would probably entail the new team joining the AFC South and bumping the Colts to the East), and most importantly 3) The tears of unfathomable sadness that would issue forth from Jets fans for the rest of their lives.
I have a similar fantasy about Philadelphia.

Section I provides a global perspective of the trafficking phenomenon and its trends, forms and manifestations, including the challenges relating to the lack of coherent and reliable statistical information that captures different dimensions of trafficking in human beings. It further sets out the definition of trafficking as articulated in the Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons Especially Women and Children as well as the scope of the mandate on trafficking. Section II examines the legal and policy framework, especially the human rights frameworks and mechanisms for combating trafficking in persons at international, regional and national levels. Section III is devoted to outlining the vision and agenda of the Special Rapporteur for the mandate and the working methods she intends to use, in the hope of making progress in implementing the mandate entrusted to her. Section IV of the report outlines the Special Rapporteur's activities, including participation at different conferences. Finally, section V contains the Special Rapporteur's conclusions and recommendations. This report is also available in Arabic, Chinese, French, Russian and Spanish.More information about human trafficking on the website of UNHCHR.
