History facts of Sweeney Todd and Mrs. Lovett's
History of the Barber Pole
- Barber shop poles are upright poles with red and white stripes in a descending spiral, topped by a bowl or ball. They are traditionally found on the exterior of the entrance to a barber shop.
- Many modern poles rotate, giving the impression of downward movement. Some poles have a blue stripe in addition to the red and white stripes.
- Barbers assumed surgical and dental tasks like bloodletting, amputation and tooth extraction when these tasks were forbidden to clergy in 1163. The "barber-surgeon" typically used long cloths as tourniquets and to wipe up blood that did not flow into a bowl.
- The red and white stripes on the barber pole represent these cloths and the "topper" represents the collection bowl used in bloodletting.
- An additional blue stripe may represent venous blood---or it may have been added by American barbers. The "bowl" atop the barber pole may also represent the holding bowl for leeches, often used for bloodletting and amputations by barber-surgeons.
Fun Facts
- The custom of calling modern-day British surgeons "Mr." but using "Dr." for a PhD or "academic" doctor is the legacy of the days of barber-surgeon guilds.
History of Sweeney Todd
The Demon Barber Sweeney Todd is the English bogeyman: the character older children call upon to frighten their friends and younger children. Unruly youngsters are cautioned against misbehaving with threats of being attacked by Sweeney and served up in a meat pie.
To most people, the Demon Barber who used a trap door and trick chair to slaughter his clients was the stuff of urban legend. After all, the events connected with his story are almost unbelievable. His exploits prey upon very common human fears: being attacked while vulnerable, and being served up as food or unknowingly consuming someone else. Who hasn't sat in the chair and felt a shiver as the barber or hair dresser takes out that straight razor, sharpens it on the strop and then applies it to the back of the neck? Or taken a bite of a meal and wondered just what the origin of the hair in the hamburger was? So it was for years, as the legend of Sweeney Todd was passed on from generation to generation, people wrote off the story as pure fiction.
But most myths and legends have a basis somewhere in truth, and Sweeney Todd is no different. There really was a mad barber, he really did use a trapdoor and straight razor to rob and kill customers, and most did end up as filling for meat pies. Extensive, painstaking research by British author Peter Haining has shown this without a doubt. Todd's life and exploits are not nearly as romantic as Sondheim would have us believe, but then who would pay to see a movie or musical about a psychopathic mass murderer unless there was more to the story?
What follows is the true story of the Demon Barber of Fleet Street. There is little romantic or even melodramatic about the life and times of Sweeney Todd. He was an amoral, bitter man who lusted for money and was not averse to killing to get it.
History of Mrs. Lovett
Sweeney Todd's accomplice is even more shrouded in mystery than the murderous barber himself. Her surname was undoubtedly Lovett, but whether her first name was Margery or Sarah remains a mystery. Haining argues in favor of Margery, as most of the articles written about her use that name. She was less than beautiful, according to articles written at the time of her arrest, and her smile came not from her heart, but was as false as the veal filling in her pies.
Engraving of Mrs Lovett
Mrs. Lovett was a widow, whose first husband had died under mysterious circumstances and no one was ever able to place her in Sweeney Todd's presence in public. The pair were lovers, though, and apparently their passions were fulfilled after a successful murder and butchering job. She liked the finer things in life, considered herself better than her working class background, and used her portion of the profits to furnish silk sheets and fine furniture in her apartment above her Bell Yard bakery.
How she met Sweeney Todd is a mystery, but apparently he set her up in her shop in Bell Yard. He had been busy "polishing off" Sweeney's own play on words - his customers for some time before he brought Mrs. Lovett into the act. Until she started using his victims in her meat pies, Todd had been using the abandoned crypts beneath St. Dunstan's church to hide his handiwork. There, he managed to store the bodies amid the dozens of family crypts that time had all but forgotten. But he was running out of room and needed a new way to dispose of his murder victims.
Thomas Peckett Prest was the first author to write the tale of Sweeney Todd and Margery Lovett shortly after their arrest and trial. He had worked on Fleet Street and was familiar with Lovett's two-story pie shop. In the basement of the shop was the bakery, and a false wall could be opened to reveal the catacombs behind. It was through this false wall that Todd would apparently deliver his ghastly pie fillings. Prest described the shop this way: "On the left side of Bell Yard, going down from Carey Street, was, at the time we write of, one of the most celebrated shops for the sale of veal and pork pies that London had ever produced. High and low, rich and poor, resorted to it; its fame had spread far and wide; and at twelve o'clock every day when the first batch of pies was sold there was a tremendous rush to obtain them

Engineers working for the Assad regime in Syria have begun combining the two chemical precursors needed to weaponize sarin gas, an American official with knowledge of the situation tells Danger Room. International observers are now more worried than they've even been that the Damascus government could use its nerve agent stockpile to slaughter its own people.
The U.S. doesn't know why the Syrian military made the move, which began in the middle of last week and is taking place in central Syria. Nor are they sure why the Assad government is transferring some weapons to different locations within the country, as the New York Times reported on Monday.
All that's certain is that the arms have now been prepped to be used, should Assad order it.
"Physically, they've gotten to the point where the can load it up on a plane and drop it," the official adds.
Sarin gas has two main chemical components — isopropanol, popularly known as rubbing alcohol, and methylphosphonyl difluoride. The Assad government has more than 500 metric tons of these precursors, which it ordinarily stores separately, in so-called "binary" form, in order to prevent an accidental release of nerve gas.
Last week, that changed. The Syrian military began combining some of the binaries. "They didn't do it on the whole arsenal, just a modest quantity," the official says. "We're not sure what's the intent."
Back in July, the Assad regime publicly warned that it might use its chemical weapons to stop "external" forces from interfering in Syria's bloody civil war. The announcement sparked a panic in the intelligence services of the U.S. and its allies, which stepped up their efforts to block shipments of precursors for those weapons from entering the country.
"This is a more serious moment than July," according to the official.
At the Pentagon, chief spokesman George Little said that "any consideration of the use of chemical weapons by the use of the Syrian regime would be unacceptable." In Prague, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton called the use of those weapons "a red line" that would prompt a U.S. response, which Little declined to elaborate upon.
"The Syrian regime must maintain security over their chemical weapons stockpiles and must not use chemical weapons against their own people," Little said.
It's unclear whether the chemical weapons movements is preparation for an outright offensive. But Mideastern nations and international groups are taking precautions, because of the dangers both conventional and not. The U.N. is pulling non-essential staff out of Damascus. Egypt ordered a commercial plane to Damascus to turn back around, and Israeli officials have quietly mooted a plan to the Jordanians for taking out the chemical sites, the Atlantic reported. Pentagon officials have suggested securing those sites would require some 75,000 troops — an indication of the Pentagon's reluctance to deepen its involvement in Syria.
Assad's position appears to have weakened recently. Fighting around the Syrian capital of Damascus has intensified, as rebel troops captured a half-dozen bases around the city. Damascus' airport, a major logistics hub, is under threat, and the regime was forced to bring in "troop reinforcements to secure the route to the airport," reported the Los Angeles Times. The rebel gains have been the most dramatic in the north and east. Over the course of last month, rebel forces overran more towns near the Turkish border and seized a major military base near the besieged city of Aleppo, which netted an arsenal of heavy weapons including tanks, howitzers and armored personnel vehicles. Assad has continued to retaliate, with more reports of cluster bomb attacks filtering out of Syria, and another round of air attacks on rebel-controlled villages.
Even Assad's ability to strike the rebels from the air is under challenge. In two videos posted online in recent weeks, a Syrian air force Mi-8 helicopter operating near Aleppo was seen being shot down by a missile. In another set of videos that appeared online prior to the attack, the rebels have what appears to be SA-7 man-portable anti-aircraft weapons, or MANPADS. And those might not be the only ones the rebels have. A series of photos on rebel Facebook pages, collected by blogger Eliot Higgins at the Brown Moses blog — a go-to source for images of the Syrian conflict — rebels associated with extremist group Ansar al-Islam are shown posing with what appears to be incomplete SA-16 and SA-24 anti-aircraft missile tubes. Those Russian-made MANPADS are some of the most advanced on the market and pose a major proliferation risk.
On Thursday, Syria abruptly became disconnected from the internet, likely after the regime disabled the four cables that provide Syria with connectivity. The rebels use the internet not only to document regime atrocities but to disseminate training tactics and to spread their propaganda. Yet the regime also relies on the internet: It's tried to hijack rebel hardware by spreading spyware in the form of fake security software. As the SecDev group internet security consultancy predicted last week, the outage ended quickly, as online monitor Renesys confirmed a "largely complete restoration of the Syrian Internet" by Saturday.
The U.S. official doesn't believe the internet blackout was related to the combination of the chemical weapon binaries. And at the Pentagon, Defense Department spokesman Little said the online outage didn't make a difference for the U.S. understanding of Assad's dangerous weapons. "The U.S. government has good visibility into the chemical weapons program and we continue to monitor it," Little said.
One U.S. official worried to CNN that "this puts us into the contingency of potential U.S. action." But it's far from clear what a U.S. response might look like. The Pentagon has suggested that securing Syria's chemical stockpiles will be a massive undertaking, requiring some 75,000 troops, while the Afghanistan war drags on. NATO will decide a early as Tuesday whether to station Patriot missile batteries in Turkey, but that defensive measure is a far cry from a decision to seize Syria's chemical weapons. Until recently, that seemed like an extremely remote possibility. But that was before Assad's engineers began their poisonous combinations.

Re: Nerf Kratos Now
BUT, Zeus is not OP. He's still manageable, if only people wouldn't be so stupid/greedy.
Re: Nerf Kratos Now
One final word about Kratos for the devs (at least for now). Shorten Dhalsim's range by a little bit, give him air combos, and give him a major speed buff. What do you get? OP Kratos. (And take away his teleport I guess, if you want to be accurate)

No good kratos user uses sq sq sq. That nerf was meaningless.
Actually you're wrong. If someone is turtling, a good strategy was to start hitting s, s, s at the furthest range you can hit them and repeatedly hit square until they stop blocking, try to roll and happen to get hit by it, or roll and get out. If they get hit by one of the attacks when rolling out, then you can switch it up to another combo.
Regardless. No recovery on s, s, s with them blocking repeatedly using it gave you a lot of AP. Not as much as doing a full combo that hit them, but if they were blocking you wouldn't have been able to do a full combo anyways.
So no. The nerf wasn't meaningless. Can't use that tactic any longer because of the nerf, and if you try you'll likely get punished.
If someone is turtling a good strategy is to ignore them and fight someone else. Remember that these patches are made to balance FFA not 1v1 or 2v2. From a FFA stand point that nerf really was meaningless as his sq sq up sq is better anyways, because it was not only as fast as sq sq sq pre patch, it leads into combos and ap bursts.
I guess you've just proven yourself to be a noob as Kratos. If you hit anyone with an s, then s, s, us kills possible combo potential.
Either s, s, t as a starter, then us, or if you want a more advanced version, s, s, ds, s, s, t, as a starter. That'll get them low in the air where you can do a forward step, then us, then combo them in the air.
Regardless if it's FFA or 1v1, it was a good tactic to use. With no recovery time you could keep attacking and if they rolled when you were too close in they'd get hit, allowing you a combo set up. If they kept blocking and then rolled behind you, spin around with a neutral triangle. If they kept on blocking until you got up to them, after your third square, you could immediately grab them with up grab, then combo them into an AP burst from that.
Just because you fail to realize it as a great tactic, doesn't mean it wasn't.
Besides, in a FFA if someone tries to attack you while you're doing that tactic, you can immediately attack in defense since you have no recovery time. The recovery time didn't just allow you to keep hitting square, you could recover from the attack to go into a completely differen't attack whatever need arises. Besides, while it may not be best in FFA, if you want to argue about 1v1, then why don't I mention that 2v2 is also ranked just like FFA.

It's so hard to argue thought after you've played God of War 3. The man is just unstoppable! It is indescribable
But he's not as fast in God of War as he is in All-Stars. I played them back to back with a friend, and it made me a little more annoyed with Kratos's ridiculous speed (when added to his strength and range) in All-Stars.
Re: Nerf Kratos Now[ Edited ]
Guy's been broken since beta. Mash square to win. His level 1 and 2 are irrevlevant, because he is extremely difficult to grab and he builds AP so fast. No risk high reward.
Dev's solution: If we keep nerfing Sackboy, the game will end up balanced.

Even if they weren't irrelevant, they're still class A supers. They come out fast and have good range.

Kratos is just always going to be overpowered. Sony Santa Monica is clearly just in love in with him, they probably made sure they got to take over this game because they heard Superbot was planning on nerfing him.
I wouldn't be surprised if this was the conversation:
SuperBot: We need to nerf Kratos. He is too strong.
Sony Santa Monica: WHAT?! No way Kratos is the best.
SB: We know... that's why we need to nerf him. He should be balanced with the rest of the class.

This trip sounds amazing so far (I've only read the first entry)! I am debating on going to Peru this summer to finish my Spanish minor so it is great to read about your experience to learn a little more about the area.

Where I stayed
What I did
The first couple days in Peru I got pretty sick. I went through a very sudden altitude change, from the coast in Florida to high in the Andes (11,400 feet high actually). I found it hard to breathe, and I was naucious. I acclimated soon though, with the help of some coca leaf tea. There was actually coca everything in Peru. Coca tea, coca candy, coca chocolate, and just plain coca leaves to chew on (just to be clear, coca isn't cocaine. It's perfectly legal!). We chewed on the leaves on our hike on the Inca trail
The first museum we went to was the Museo de Inka. It had lots of cultural Inca things, and also real mummies. They were mostly decayed, sitting in a fetal position with gaping mouths and open eye sockets. I thought they looked really creepy, especially in the dark red light they were under. We also walked around town. Cusco is a cute city, and reminded me of Antigua, Guatemala. It had cobblestone streets and a central park with a fountain. Like Guatemala, Peru was also taken over by the Spaniards. So pretty much all of churches had the same names as the ones in Antigua. Cusco is largely built on Inca ruins. The Incas built their buildings so well, they have lasted thousands of years. You will see that the bottom of most buildings is original Inca stones, then the top is whatever else normal buildings are made of.
We went on two city tours during our time in Peru. In our first tour, we visited six places. We first went to a beautiful cathedral in Cusco. There was carved wood and silver everywhere. Then we also went to another building, which was a convent. In the Inca time, it used to be the Qoricancha, the Temple of the Sun. It was then taken by the Spanish and converted to Santo Domingo Convent. We also went to many ruins
Most of our time in Peru, we just got caught up on school. We were pretty behind from all of the days just visiting museums. I didn't quite get caught up on school in Peru, but was then home for awhile when I could. I kept getting bored and distracted from school, though. It's hard being alone for your classes. The day after our first tour, we also went for a jog. We were trying to build up red blood cells and become fully adjusted to the altitude.
On our second tour, we went into the Sacred Valley of the Inca
The day after that, we went to a cultural dance. The music was played with fiddles and flutes, and reminded me of American pioneer music. We took a bus tour around Cusco. It was like a Big Bus tour in London. We went to the top of the hill above Cusco, and we could see the whole city. We could even see the large letters carved in the mountainside, "Viva el Peru". There was also a big statue of Jesus at the top of hill, that was lit up at night.
When we had a briefing for the Inca trail, we got t-shirts that say "I survived the Inca Trail". We couldn't wear them yet though. They told us about the hike and warned us about how hard day two would be. They also talked about how we would walk down for hours on the third day, and that it would be best to get walking sticks. We bought some the next day. They turned out to be a huge help on the Inca trail later.
My mom and I walked around one day and went to a "restaurant." This restaurant was something we read reviews about online, and it sounded great. It was really just a grimy little hole in the wall where you ordered food, then sat on dirty stools and ate on planks of wood attached to the wall. But the food was absolutely amazing! The little "restaurant" was called Prosada Veggie Food, and they only sold vegetarian food. They made their own veggie burgers and everything. They were super cheap, too. I had the best veggie burger ever there. We went there twice, another time with Soph. And of course we also completed our best veggie burgers ever with the best cupcakes ever. Encantasqa was right across the street, and was a restaurant that sold the most amazing chocolate cupcakes. They were warm, and chocolatey, and I can't really describe them but they were so good.
We went to another museum, called the Qoricancha Site Museum. It was right under the Santo Domingo convent, and was sort of small. It had more creepy mummies, though. Another museum we went to was the Museum of Popular Art. It was huge, with all sorts of interesting paintings and sculptures. Then we went to another art museum, of contemporary art. Another museum we visited was the Museum of Regional History. I think we visited just about every museum in Cusco
On December 7, we left for our hike of the Inca trail!! It was fun and absolutely amazing, so read my separate entry about it!
When we got back from the trek, we got hot stone massages. They were 20 soles, which is about $6 for an hour. We saw reviews online for an Italian restaurant called Roma Mia, so we tried it out. They had great pizza there, and it was handmade then baked over a fire.
We left Peru on the 13th. Then we were home for Christmas and New Years, until January 7th. That's when we left for our cruise to Antarctica!

I have been chemical free for three years, now I have the start of EFB. I would like to know how can I treat
this ? Thanks for the help!
I have been chemical free for three years, now I have the start of EFB. I would like to know how can I treat
this ? Thanks for the help!
Three options.
1. I read in the Bee Culture that re-queening will sometimes work.
2. Let the bees try and fix it. Sometimes when a hive gets on a good flow it will cure itself.
3. Treat the hive with Terramycin.
Thanks Jon B , I have already requeeded . I was tring to stay away from the chemicals I guess it will have to happen or lose the hive. Thanks again
What about combining w/ a stronger, potentially more hygienic, hive?
Mark Berninghausen
I have thought about that but I have a lot of brood and eggs in th hive. My hive is two stories and deep frame. It is just not ramping up , so I looked thru it and found some brownish eggs starting. The foul smell is not there, so I feel that it may be in early stages.
Thanks for the reply sqkcrk
Try a search on google (or other engine) on:
efb requeening
Michael Bush bushfarms.com/bees.htm "Everything works if you let it." ThePracticalBeekeeper.com 42y 40h 39yTF
Thanks Micheal Bush, I have searched and I have requeeded so I will wait for progress.
Thanks for the reply.
I've been looking into it too. First of all it doesn't mean that the hive is going to die every time. I suspect that I've had it off and on for years and just never knew what it was - they usually just get well. I know it can be bad too though.
Two other treatment free things that I have gleaned:
Cage the queen inside the hive until there is no brood at all left in the hive - 24 days. That from my state apiary inspector.
If there is not a strong flow going feed all the 1-1 sugar water they will take. That came from a search of the commercial forum on here.
Thanks for the reply David LaFerney. I will try it.

The first stage tavern inn was established in Cedar Falls within five years of the community's settlement and shortly thereafter the mischief began. When the Western Stage Company rolled into town each evening it brought weary travelers weighed down with troubles, rowdy entertainers, and wicked men and women.
Once lodged in Cedar Falls hotels they became part of the community and the stories of their mysterious deaths, boisterous drinking, and scandalous behavior filled the columns of the Cedar Falls Gazette from 1860–1900.

WHERE THE MAGIC HAPPENS Allagash Brewing.
You've got a week off, and you're staying home. You've decided to do all the stuff you tell everyone else about when they ask why you live in Maine. Lighthouse tours, window-shopping, and long walks on beaches round out your thoroughly L.L. Bean-inspired schedule. But wouldn't you know it? It's raining. It's not even a light rain that can make the coast more mystical, but one of those pissing downpours you just can't wait to get out of. Your best-laid plans are screwed. Lucky for you, we have just the thing to cure your summer-vacation blues: Maine, from the inside.
Roll with the homies
Toss out the preconceived notions of the typically gaudy, neon-infested galactic bowling alley, and replace that image with clean hardwood floors and ruddy brick walls. Throw in a performance stage for good measure and, voila, you have Bayside Bowl. A bowling alley with class, it just opened in the former space of Skillful Vending on Alder Street. With a fully equipped stage (not to mention bar) BB can turn aside from the lanes and serve as a bright new music venue. Just last weekend, local rockers Marie Stella debuted their new EP, Trust, along with Dead Man's Clothes (this year's Bimpy winner for Best New Act) and the Art of Shooting. While primarily a bowling alley, it's also a full restaurant (good if your plans didn't involve a rained-out lobster bake). You can even get served at the lanes, to nosh while waiting your turn.

Meet the (non-)local wildlife
Not every museum greets its guests with an eight-foot-tall Bigfoot replica. Guarding the entry of the bizarrely offbeat exhibit, Bigfoot is just one of the dozens of "cryptids" showcased at the International Cryptozoology Museum. (For the uninitiated, cryptozoology is the study of hidden, semi-mythical animals that have yet to be officially discovered and documented.) Alongside Bigfoot, the museum has displays on other famous cryptids, chief among them the Chupacabra and the Loch Ness Monster. Loren Coleman, Maine's leading cryptozoologist, has crammed the kitchen-sized space with more than 1200 items collected over the last 50-odd years. The author of more than 30 books on unusual and unexpected creatures, Coleman can tailor tours to visitors, personalizing the experience to your background and interests. There are one-of-a-kind movie props, and even casts of cryptid footprints (shown to "serious" cryptozoologists). Even the toys, like a Bigfoot action figure, take on new significance, as evidence of cryptids' influence on popular culture.

Be the canvas
Even if the weather hides the scenery, take heart: the Maine coast, as depicted at the Portland Museum of Art, is always in clear view. This summer, the "Winslow Homer and the Poetics of Place" exhibit shows 28 pieces of scenic, 19th-century oil paintings from the revered Maine artist. But the museum stays modern too, with "Division and Discovery: Recent Work by Frederick Lynch," a unique series of painted geometrical patterns that sprawl over pieces of painted pinewood that should be your first stop when you arrive. The museum has guided tours and self-guided audio tours on iPods available for lending. When you're done walking the four floors of galleries, grab a seat in the auditorium for the weekly "Movies at the Museum" art-house film experience. Foreign and independent films, documentaries, dramas, and classic films will keep you entertained inside until long after the downpour subsides.

"Bachelor" Jason Dumps Melissa, Picks Molly
5 comments:
Oh my... I don't know what to think. I had heard the rumors that he picks one, but then changes his mind and picks the other one but I thought it would be Molly he picks first, and then changes his mind and chooses Melissa. Boy was I wrong. I always hoped he would pick Melissa and wasn't the biggest fan of Molly, However, I saw a different side of Melissa tonight and understand why she was boiling mad, but actually saw more understanding in Molly (the way she acted when she was turned down at the finale). I also can't be mad at Jason... I mean they are in a fish bowl and I believe he really fell in love with both of them but it played out on TV in such an unnatural way. So I believe that when he chose Melissa, he felt she would be the best for him AND his son and wouldn't be so into her work. But, when Molly was gone, he realized only then how deeply in love with Molly he really was. It's better he follows his heart. It's good to pick someone that will be good for your son, but his son will grow up soon enough and you should be with someone you are passionate about and are truly, madly in love with. I was surprised at how Molly was with Jason's son; she was better around him that I thought she'd be... you see, I was a big fan of Melissa, but now see that Jason is truly in love with Molly and it would be a big mistake for him to pretend he felt the same way for Melissa.

I am disappointed in how Jason publicized the break up with Melissa. In retrospect, I understand how hard it must be to figure out who you really love in such short meetings. I do like both of them. They are very different from each other. I really liked Jason too. But I have too say something makes me question his integrity when he can fall in love so many times and subject his son to it.

NO! Jason did not make the right choice of dummping melissa like that! I was so mad/ sad. I dont think molly and him make a good couple the look weired together. Melissa and jason were perfect. I so agreed with melissa when she said "I would have wanted you to let me go that final day, instead of doing this to me." I think diana made him think. What was her point for being on the show??? I really wanted to see jason and melissa get married on TV like trista and ryan....so i heard a rumor that when jason was on the batchlorette he made a friend with some guy from dallas who knew melissa. The friend introduced them and they were dating for a little bit. The melissa went on the show and Made it to the end...they we supposable dating the whole time...idk i could be just another rumor.

Jason is a loser! I continued to watch the Bachelor because he seemed like a good guy. Now I think he is the problem in his relationships. His family pleaded about all of his unhappiness, yet now I see im as the front and center contributor. Although this was probably very difficult for Melissa, she will be better off without him. And Molly, you better watch out!

they had a heck of a draft. they may make some noise this year.
They already had a great D, they just needed to fix their o-line and acquire a starting-caliber quarterback.
The NFC West could become what the NFC East was not so long ago -- good.
They got Okafor in the fourth round! what a steal, could strip sack and play the run. And the Honeybadger. Plus the Bucs too with Revis and Johnathan Banks, Rhonde Barber and that safety that got from Bama
Hope this is not because of the Honey Badger!
Mr. Kangol has his work cut out for him, but the Cardinals had a nice draft. Mendenhall is gonna be a 1,000 yard guy, book it.

Hi Everyone! A few weeks ago I clicked on a Ceramic Arts Daily link for a woman who had built a clay cutting tool for slabs...both straight and with a circle attachment. I can't find the video anywhere and my local hardware store doesn't have all the supplies that were listed in the video: such as free-spinning lock nuts.
Does anyone have the link to that video? I'd like to watch it again and see if I can figure out another way to make the tool.

We stayed for 6 nights and had a wonderful time. Giorgio is very kind and has been the perfect host to us. Every morning a nice breakfast, clean towels, airconditioned room. He provided us with some good tips for in Venice and even picked us up from the airport. The accommodation is nearby the train and bus stop and you'll be in Venice in no time. I would recommend it to everyone.
We stayed for two nights and found everything like in the description, including the possibilty to use a full equipped kitchen (for example Espresso when you like to have it...). Everything was clean and ready to use. Geogio told us many "secrets" about the city, what helped a lot to organize our trip inside Venice. It is a perfect flat to discover Venice also beause its perfectly with public transport.
Thanks a lot, it was great.
Awesome place to spend the night in Venice.
Giorgio service is very personal and complete, he gives you all the tips you need to make your stay in Venice the best posible
It was our pleasure to stay with such a nice host as Georgio.
Apartment has a very convenient location to Mestre train station, walking distance, from where is just 12 min to Venice. High quality service is guaranteed, that what I wanted to point.
Giorgio is an ideal host. He took all the necessary time to inform us about the city, the public transport ad so on. For us that was very comfortable, since it was our first visit to Venice.The place was very clean and very well located. Close to railway station and busses, only 12 minutes to Venice city by train... 4 minute walk to railway station...
The restaurants he recommended were real good adresses.
A good place to stay. We will surely go back when we return to Venice.
It was such a nice stay in Giorgio 's house. He is very kind and warmhearted. He helped me alot not only with the trip in Venice but also with the present for my father. The flat was clean and near the railway station. We had also visited the Mestra center and enjoyed the italien ice cream. So great!
Had a wonderful stay at Giorgio's. The place itself is very comfortable and homely. Giorgio went above and beyond as a host. He not only provided us with invaluable tips and tricks for getting around Venice efficiently but also attended to our needs by supplying us with adapters and washing facilities that we couldn't be without! We followed all his advice and I believe we absolutely had the best Venice experience possible! (Definitely visit island Burano and the restaurant bepi's, you won't be regret it) I would strongly reccommend anyone visiting Venice to stay.
Giorgio is a very nice and helpful host. On our arrival he gave us all instructions necessary for a good stay in Venice, from a map to tips on where to eat, tours and prices. The house is well located near train and bus stations. The rooms are large and comfortable. The house in general is extremely clean. Highly recommended.
Excellent accueil de la part de Giorgio. Appartement très propre, bien situé (près de la gare de Mestre). Giorgio est très attentif à ses hôtes.
Franchement génial !
Giorgio et Marina sont vraiment super sympas et se mettent en 4 pour nous offrir le meilleur séjour possible. La chambre est très propre, tout comme la salle de bain et le reste du logement (3 chambres d'hôtes + sdb/wc + salle à manger et cuisine). Tout est à disposition, frigo, plats, casseroles, café, lait, jus de fruits, petits gâteaux, Nutella, beurre, fruits, etc, et même le superflu ! Sel, poivre, huile, vinaigre, moutarde et autres à disposition selon ce qui reste des précédents occupants pour pouvoir faire à manger. A noter qu'il y a un supermarché à 100 mètres, un restaurant juste à côté et un autre génial un peu plus loin (Hostaria Vite Rossa, au 34 via Pietro Bembo). Tout est fourni, draps, serviettes, savon, ..., il y a même des parapluies à disposition, tout comme des tas de documentations, c'est pour dire comme ils ont pensé à tout. Bref aucune surprise avec ce logement que nous recommandons très fortement ! Cerise sur le gâteau, il est idéalement situé près d'une grande gare de train (toutes les 5mn pour l'ile de Venise) et de la gare des autobus qui desservira aussi bien l'ile que l'aéroport (env.30mn).
Quand nous reviendrons à Venise, croyez que nous logerons très certainement chez Giorgio.
A bientôt !
Brice et Pascale.

EOMS Z-Services (also known as XPAF) is Xerox's flagship z-Series software solution.
Z-Services provide a single, unified interface for:
Printer resource management
Data stream conversion and formatting
Job accounting
Remote and local printer access
Z-Services enable the printing of high resolution, personalised documents that combine variable text and full colour graphics, as well as precision forms, fonts and logos. Z-Services also support AFP, LCDS (DJDE), XES, line mode and Xerox-formatted data streams on a wide spectrum of feature-rich, local and remote Xerox Intelligent Laser Printing systems. Print data is taken directly from the JES spool, modified if necessary, then sent directly to the printer of choice: it's that simple. Users can even send jobs to disk or tape for subsequent offline printing.
With Z-Services, customers can send any document to any Xerox printer within the enterprise, resulting in improved site flexibility, productivity and investment protection.
Product Highlights
Transparent Data Conversion
Provides comprehensive data conversion in order to transport documents to Xerox production and departmental printing systems. All conversions are performed without operator intervention or modification to the application.
Host-based Printer Resource Management
Enables co-ordinated management and distribution of Xerox and IBM printer resources throughout the enterprise. This provides the ultimate in security for sensitive resources and eliminates labour intensive file transfers between printers. Users can store resources centrally at the host as well as on the printer.
Connectivity Solutions
Provides an array of solutions, such as Bus & Tag channel, TCP/IP and SNA, to integrate the entire printing Enterprise. These solutions enable a rapid response to an ever-changing environment.
Document Formatting via Extended JCL
Provides extensions to the standard IBM JCL facility and offers greater formatting and document control capability, without touching the application.
Formatting Made Easy: Xerox Page Formats
Includes Xerox Page Formats that enable users to incorporate highlight colour forms, fonts, logos and graphic images into the document, all external to the application.
Conditional Document Formatting
Enables users to analyse any field in the data stream and to change the way the document is printed in real time, providing the ultimate in personalisation and efficiency. Billings, mailings, and other applications are greatly simplified.
Improved Accounting
Generates SMF Type 6 records to deliver extensive job accounting and data tracking for use by host applications. Enhanced accounting capabilities let you analyse resource information, simplex or duplex, and physical or logical page count.
Consistent Operability
Means that Z-Services run as a Functional Subsystem (FSS) using the IBM-defined Functional Subsystem Interface (FSI) to communicate with JES. Operators use the same JES commands to control Z-Services-defined printers as the existing JES printers. Additional query commands provide greater system access and control. Checkpoint restart capability gives operators simple and complete job recovery.
Any Page to Any Xerox Printer

hello, how do I install the megabee winter patty? Do I take the paper off first? Also how many patties do I need per hive?
hello, how do I install the megabee winter patty? Do I take the paper off first? Also how many patties do I need per hive?
darby...go to ....tucson bee diet...it will tell you how to use it...greg
22 hives and holding
This link to megabeediet.com website should provide the appropriate answers.
I make my own Winter patties. I sandwich my patty material between two sheets of waxed paper. Just before I place the patties on the Top Bars, just above the brood nest, I make several slits with a knife, about 1/4" apart, then place the patties, cut side down - waxed paper is little hindrance to the bees, they remove it quickly.
Last edited by Joseph Clemens; 11-06-2013 at 12:33 PM.
The Mega-Bee Winter Patties are sold by Dadant and are 97% sugar. When the weather gets so cold here that I button up the hives for winter I put four of them on the top bars of my ten frame deeps as added insurance. On nice days in the winter, I peak to see if they have finished them all and quickly slide another one in if they have. I feel that they are a great product to prevent the early spring, late winter, starvation that impacts many.
The other reason I try to keep the waxed paper on the patties, and as intact as possible - is that without the paper, the patties have a tendency to quickly dry out and become rock hard. After that the bees don't consume them, they just pull them out of the hive, in pieces, and discard them (too much of a waste). Even with the paper intact, this still happens with smaller pieces that remain after the bees have consumed the majority.
Patties I have handled have holes in the paper on one side. That's the side you face towards the cluster. I know guys that remove the paper from one side. I see that as wasted time. It may make the patty more readily available to the bees, but it isn't necessary.
Mark Berninghausen
Very good point about drying out. I don't remember that problem but maybe it was because when I made the patties the instructions I used said to include cooking grease like Crisco I think, anyway it was not the liquid type.
Good point. Around here it is so dry, unless it is raining, that when I'm inspecting, and find a patty that has dried out, I set it in a shallow tray of warm water, or spritz it heavily with a spray bottle (depending on how dry it is), before returning it to the bees. I also use lots of Canola oil in my patty recipe, which does help, too.
My experience feeding pollen supplement in the winter is that the bees, if they can't take a cleansing flight for a considerable amount of time will have dysentery. If I were Darby I would not put them on my hive. Unless it's a mild winter could be a problem in the north.
Cam Bishop
Camero7, you are right, I had not seen the Maine address. They will not have much of a need now until spring anyway.
I think some people are confusing the Megabee Winter Patties with regular Megabee Patties. The Winter Patties are not meant to be a pollen substitute. They are a cold weather feed like fondant. That's why they only have a slight amount of Megabee in them.
I still wouldn't put them in my hives. In some studies bees wintered better on sugar than honey. It was attributed to the lack of the other ingredients in normal honey. Just my opinion and experience.
Cam Bishop
Everything has a risk /reward. The colder the less reward to me, not much going on inside that pollen will not support. I do plan on adding sub to the mountain in the spring.
Haven't tried it, you may be right.
I've used the winter patties for three winters in a row, and haven't lost a hive during the winter or spring. I only have eleven hives so it's not a large sample size, but they sure seem to work for me.


text: I have a 2003 Silverado 4x4 (4.8) that has a leak when it rains causing water (very little) to appear on the passenger side floor board. I can find a TSB that reads Windshield Adhesion Non Compliance but it is only the title and # (03001). I contacted the local Chevy dealer and they say they cant find it but if I can copy the body of the TSB and bring it in they will do the work. I am unable to find the body of the TSB in order to copy it can anyone help me out with this info or a link to it ? Thanks for any help.

Sorry to bump an old thread but wanted to post some updates on the tank since making the changes to the lighting and dosing. I now have algae on almost every plant, still no new growth from any plant except the red tiger lotus, and the cyperus and balansae continue to wilt and wither away. The tiger lotus leaves are increasingly full of holes and ragged, though they continue to grow at a healthy rate. Only the anubias nana keep trucking along without any issues. I've been dosing Seachem potassium the last couple of weeks in addition to complete and excel, and while plant yellowing has reduced, in its place is more algae.
I'm not sure if this has anything to do with the lighting change I made, but I know that I did not have this amount of algae when I had all 3 bulbs going for 6hrs a day and wasn't dosing potassium.
I know I need to get dry fertilizers asap as I ran out of my last supply. If anyone could recommend a particular set for this kind of tank it would be most appreciated.
Great advice, I'll try removing one bulb and I'll keep my timer at 6 hours. Didn't realize the 3x T5HO was too bright for my tank (considering there's no C02). I have a feeling this will make a significant difference.
What do you know, I just checked the tank and after two days of 8hr lighting (with all 3 bulbs) the Cyperus and Balansae both show significant more brown areas and definitely look worse than when I had the lighting at 6 hrs. I've since removed one bulb, put the timer back to 6 hrs and will monitor how this setup works. Thanks again Kathy for all the good advice.
One last question if you wouldn't mind: now that I'm embracing the low-tech approach, what's your take on water changes?
Seachem makes very good products but your big tank will go through those bottles in a hurry.
You need CO2 if the tank is too bright and you can run any size tank without CO2 by managing the lighting.
Visit the Low Tech forum. The very long thread about lush low tech tanks was started by Lauralee who has a 90 gallon tank. Look at the sort of thing she does to maintain the tank. http://www.plantedtank.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=99729
The wpg guide worked okay on standard sized tanks lit with T12 bulbs but doesn't work on tanks with T5. The technology makes for brighter light and the reflectors can be super good. Look at the sticky in the lighting forum for really great information or see the second chart on this thread. Another general rule but 3 T5HO bulbs over a 24" tall tank is very high to high light. http://www.plantedtank.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=105774
Today you can clean up the tank and take out one of the bulbs and change the lighting period to 6 hours - or longer and put something between the lights and the tank.
|Hopefully one of my last questions on this subject: Would something like this be a good place to start for dosing the macros on a regular basis?
Thanks for all the great info Kathy. Do you think it's possible for me to get away with not injecting C02 in a tank of this size? Due to the tank's location, and inability for me to store things like canister filters or pressurized C02 systems anywhere, I'm hoping I can keep this a low-tech tank. If it is truly 90gal, then my lighting (162W) is less than 2wpg. If it's 80gal then it is 2wpg. Either way, that is more in the realm of low-mid tech, correct? I've been under the assumption I can skip on the CO2 injection, and just add supplements as needed. Obviously, I have not been adding the correct chems or amounts, which I will rectify immediately. But I would very much like to stay away from C02 systems whether it's DIY or pressurized.
Also, I know I currently have a very small bioload for the size of this tank which probably isn't helping stabilize the plants. My goal is to have 5 adult Discus with a small school of Tetras (the Rosy Barbs will be removed prior to that, of course). The Discus will be going in at the end of January when I'm back from a vacation. That should be an increase in the bioload, I'd imagine? Hopefully that will help, especially in addition to the macro ferts I'm going to start adding.
I don't see algae, I see weak growing plants. Grow strong plants and at the very least you cannot see the algae for the plants.
Get a set of dry fertilizers from one of the forum sponsors or there is a seller on the regular selling forum of the stuff as well. See the fertilizer subforum for how tos and names of it all. You are running a lot of light over a tank and not providing enough carbon, nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus and micronutrients for the plants to take advantage of the light. Since you are dosing Excel algae isn't getting a chance to take hold but it isn't providing all the carbon the plants need. Excel both kills a lot of different algae types and provides organic carbon, good stuff if used carefully.
I hate to take leaves that have any green on them off struggling plants but do take off the worst leaves as they aren't helping the plants grow and serve as a very nice substrate for algae to grow on. Get as much decayed stuff out of there as you can basically.
See the lighting forum's sticky thread to evaluate how much light you have. 3 full length T5HO bulbs is a very good amount of light, very likely more than the plants can handle without CO2 and a complete fertilizer. I recently discovered that my plants are happiest with at least 8 hours of lighting and am choosing to shade my lights rather than run a shorter light period. I am using plain window screen to shade the tank.
Probably because my tank has had CO2 and bright light for over a decade I haven't had issues with overdosing NPK+micros in my tank. The worst algal plagues I have had were due to not enough nutrients rather than too much. Perhaps if my tank wasn't bright and CO2 dosed I would have problems with too much of this or that, don't know.
You won't get the same advice from any two of us because each of our tanks is run differently and we have different experiences with algae. My tank is very bright [even brighter than yours], I use loads of CO2 and loads of NPK+micros, make large frequent water changes, use a sump and have small amounts of nuisance algae of certain types. Another tank has lower light, no CO2, does zero water changes and perhaps uses very little NPK+micros and has completely different algae if any at all. I have had very little experience with some of the nastiest algae out there like cladophora, rhizoclonium and thread [I have seen a bit of each once or twice then it vanishes on its own, weird] but all too much experience with BBA [black beard algae] and GW [green water]. Even if you find a perfect match the same routines will come out differently, each tank is its own little puzzle to work out.
In my experience holes in lily leaves are because they need more. More nitrate, more phosphate, more potassium. In my experience rasped sword plant leaves were ruined by snails and bristlenose plecos because the leaves were weak see above. I haven't grown Cyperus [on my short list of plants to try] but that damage looks like weak old leaves are bent and bruised and are rotting at those points. Those patches could also be the start of BBA, it can form plaques before getting fuzzy and the fuzzy tips to the Crinium is probably BBA although I don't see it in the photos.
@secuno - the dimensions are 48"W x 18"D x 24" T, which is listed as 90g everywhere I look (aquarium supply stores, online calculators, etc). The place I bought it from sold it as an 80g, so obviously sellers have some confusion over classifying it.
@paragon - no I haven't done anything beyond what I posted in my first post, which is why I'm here on this forum gaining knowledge I'm just trying to get some consensus on what is the problem/deficiency before I plop down more $$ on this tank. It would be great to hear even 2 people suggest the same thing
@diana - by mechanical damage you mean snails/fish? I do catch the odd snail in here and dispose of them when I can. I've never seen more than one at a time which is why it's never worried me too much, but do you think this is the main cause of the plant damage you see? Also is there a particular macro product you could recommend that I could find at my LFS or online?

Hi there! I'm no expert but i do read books (Peter Hiscock is great)
Based on Peter's methology: cut feedings to ones a day, you might want to eliminate water changes as by doing such a big water changes you bring in many other elements in to the water? Also you might layoff all the stuff you dosing in to the tank? I'm under impression that when the nitrogen cycle is established your plants should be getting nutrienets out of substrate/water, specially when you got eco-complite. Just my 10 cents.
Brown stuff does not look like BBA. Also here is a rumor that ones you get BBA there is no way to get it out of your tank . True? i dont know.
From the link in post #7, Analysys of the root tablets.
Note: I do not see and phosphate here. There is N, K, Ca, Mg, Fe and traces.
"Chemically Active Ingredients: Hydrated Magnesium sulfate, Potassium nitrate, Potassium sulfate, also trace amounts of; Cobalt EDTA, Copper EDTA, Iron EDTA, Magnesium EDTA, Zinc EDTA, Manganese sulfate, Sodium Borate, Sodium Molybdate, (Chelating Agent: Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid)
Physically Active Ingredients: Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) Magnesium Carbonate (MgCO3) Calcium Carbonate Equivalent (CaCO3) Calcium Sulfate (CaSO42H2O)"
From post 8:
Picture 2, 3, 4: Does not look like Diatoms or potassium deficiency. More like mechanical damage.
Picture 6, 7: Looks more like what I have seen as mechanical damage or potassium deficiency. Snails and other livestock may not be able to rasp healthy plant tissue and do much damage, but if the tissue is compromised then they can rasp holes in it.
__________________________________________________ ________
What are the current parameters for NO3?
Based on the fertilizers listed I think the only significant supply is the fish food. The root tablets might be pretty low, unless you used them at the maximum rate. Even then the slow release means the N and K are mostly unavailable, locked up in the tablet.
Seachem Comprehensive is very low in N. Really, just a micro supplement.
Anyway, I would dose macros in the water column. See if that helps.
Gotta say, that tank doesn't even look like a 90 gallon.
If it is a regular 90, it's height usually causes issues with not enough light reaching the plants.
|Some of the holes remind me of what happens in my tank if I don't dose enough K+. Have you tried upping just that nutrient? It's one of the few that you can overdose without issue IRC.
|Can anyone verify exactly what we're seeing in the photos I posted? Is that all algae, or just plant rot?
With the spray bar I seem to get even flow with some very gentle movement of the plants. I suspect that the 700 gph pump delivers much less then that given the four foot rise. There was a chart with the pump, I could look it up. Water movement at the surface is said to facilitate O2 transfer, is that true for CO2 as well?
@steagle: look into Pfertz. They are a little more expensive but I think are still having a sale. VERY easy to use, and seem to get favorable reviews here and elsewhere.
Heavy filtration sort of gets mixed in with heavy flow in the tank (as filters are typically the main providers of it).
Heavy flow in planted tanks is primarily warranted when injecting CO2 and adding ferts as it helps to better ensure equal dispersal of both of these throughout the tank. Dead spots are typically unwanted.
Without CO2 and ferts, heavy flow is not as necessary (other than that required to effectively filter the water - but water filters provide for more than enough of that). In fact heavily planted (Walstad type) tanks can get away with no flow (and no external filtration as well).
Wow those are pretty similar! Other than the longer lighting schedule I see you are doing the water changes every week whereas I do it every two. This is mostly due to time constraints in my schedule but also because the water and overall cleanliness of the tank look fine on that second week. I could try doing it every week for a few weeks and see if there's any improvement.
Other than that, I'll definitely up the lighting from 6hrs back to 8, I'm also going to cut out some of the red tiger lotus leaves that are blocking light to some of the melon sword leaves. I'll also look into some macro ferts to supplement what the plants are not currently getting.

Update: Study supports current bridge design
BEAUFORT - Update: A study conducted by the North Carolina Department of Transportation supports a current design for a Beaufort Bridge Bypass over Gallants Channel, according to the Carteret News-Times.
The Grayden Paul Bridge has reached the end of its useable life and the DOT was looking into bridge alternatives that bypass Beaufort. A new bridge design became controversial when it didn't run close to downtown Beaufort and wasn't high enough for ships with masts higher than 65 feet.
Earlier in 2012, the DOT began a study due to concerns received by the US Coast Guard. The study came back with less than 1% of the channel being used by tall masted ships over 65 feet.
Carteret News-Times states that 22 vessels of some 2,800 observed were taller than the current bridge plan.
Previous Story:
Coast Guard officials have asked the NCDOT to take a look at nautical traffic in Gallant Channel between Radio Island and Beaufort before approval of a new bridge there.
After receiving multiple comments from concerned boaters, the Coast Guard has asked the DOT to do a study to determine what kind of ships use the channel. A current bridge design has a fixed span bridge set at 65 feet high. Some boaters think that's not high enough. Tall masted ships would not be able to make it under the bridge, and this has some Beaufort marina owners worried.
A document from Core Creek Marine makes a case against the new bridge, citing many tall masted ships would no longer have access past the channel. However, another local marina owner thinks a new bridge will actually provide some benefit.
"I think with what we as a community and as a state have invested, that we should move forward," Steve Tulevech said. Tulevech is the owner of Town Creek Marina.
Coast Guard officials said they couldn't ignore the community feedback.
"We received a number of comments from the boating public that there are a lot of tall masted vessels that exceed the 65 foot structure if it was built," said Waverly Gregory with the 5th Coast Guard District.
Gregory said once a study is complete on the channel, the Coast Guard will grant the permit necessary to begin construction of the bridge. Construction could begin as early September 2013.
Previous Story:
A plan for a new bridge from Morehead City to Beaufort is raising some concern from community members.
The Grayden Paul Bridge is more than 50 years old. That's past it's serviceable life according to North Carolina Department of Transportation officials. A plan is in place to make a new bridge that will bypass the town of Beaufort.
Some business owners in the town think the new bridge could hurt business.
"It's the golden goose of the town," business owner Joe Stroud said. "When I was mayor of [Atlantic Beach], the golden goose was the beach. It was the sand and everyone looked after the sand. That's how downtown Beaufort is."
Stroud thinks traffic being diverted from the city will take tourist attention away from the downtown area.
However, other Beaufort residents think the bypass will make Beaufort a safer place to live.
"There is a danger whenever you have tens of thousands of vehicles traveling through town," Sam Sellars said. Sellars started a website with several other people in support of the bridge. "To have bicyclists and pedestrians dealing with all of that traffic you have a safety concern."
People with the DOT say work could begin next September, but they are waiting on a permit from the Coast Guard.

I recently had the privilege of interviewing Allyson Peerman, corporate vice-president of semiconductor design company AMD, and president of AMD Foundation, about the firm's efforts to bring video game design programs into our schools.
Allyson started the conversation saying how she liked the title of my own education company, Out of the Box Creative Learning, because that's how the education system has to work nowadays. Throughout the conversation, I realized that Allyson has been striving her whole career to rethink education, benefitting the engineering fields and American students.
My first question was why are STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) based companies so interested in helping education today? Besides giving money to schools, I don't remember companies actively creating educational programs when I was a kid. Her answer was logical: they need a steady supply of workers. They want to hire the smartest, most innovative workers. And if those workers come from America, even better. But the current education system does not encourage the type of thinking that brings students into those fields. This is why AMD, Intel and many other high-tech companies are taking the initiative with educational programs.
One example is Changing the Game, AMD's program to teach kids to make their own video games on a variety of subjects. The program was based on an investigation into how to teach science, technology, engineering and math to kids in the most engaging way possible. The fact that children love games is obvious. And for this generation of children, video games especially are the favorite mode of play.
