What is your role in this field
Personally, I like the challenges involved in learning something new everyday. I've been involved now professionally for who knows how many years, 14 or so plus on the security side, computing since the days of my Adam w/Smart Basic. There are so many arenas in security (penetration testing, firewalls, networking, cryptography, programming, etc.) I sometimes feel like a kid in a candy store. Cert-wise within the past 4-5 years, I started ramping up on certs not because I really care for them, but because of the market. Certifying is a dual edged sword. Some of the smartest people I know have zero certs. Yet some of the lamest (for lack of better terms) have the highest paying jobs because they certified.
Right now, I just like the challenge and have started looking at the certification process as another hack. I'd like to be able to learn enough to earn as many security related certs for the sake of saying: "another challenge down" yet at the same time much of the content bores me at times... E.g., I just took the CISM this past weekend and finished in an hour and five minutes. This is the second time taking the exam and the first time I failed by two points (scaled scoring). The first time, same results, I finished in about an hour twenty minutes and had to run to catch a plan. No studies, etc., this time I swore I would study and take my time... I did not study but I DID take my time... I even spent another 40 minutes going back over my answers but quickly got bored...
So there you have it... Personally I do it for the challenge... Why do you do it? (By the way, my focus for the year is scattered... CREA + Juniper certs + CISA*maybe* + ISRM coming up)

Fire victim makes remarkable discovery in pile of ash
EL PASO COUNTY, Colo. - A fire victim made a remarkable discovery as he sifted through burned debris at what used to be his home in Black Forest.
Ted Robertson hosts KRDO Newsradio's Saturday Business Magazine program with Robin Roberts. He knew the home he left one week ago was gone. The Black Forest Fire's flames left him with a pile of charred rubble and ash.
He returned to his property Tuesday afternoon.
"(I felt) a lot of apprehension mixed with tension mixed with excitement and worry," said Roberston.
He didn't expect to find any mementos from the past in the wake of the fire's destruction. The fire stripped his pine trees of their needles and colored them black. His brick fireplace was the only part of his home that survived the flames.
Robertson headed straight for the corner in what used to be his garage. He knew that was where his family used to store their Christmas decorations.
He wanted to find a small Jesus figurine his wife made years ago for their Nativity Scene. It was a treasured family heirloom rich in tradition. His wife would hide the small statue and Christmas festivities couldn't commence until it was found.
The ceramic figurine is the size of a postage stamp. Roberston was looking for a needle in a haystack. If the statue did survive, the tiny piece was buried in large piles of debris and ash.
"I began to see the piece of the nativity scene. And, pulling those out, what started to run through my mind is, 'Is the baby Jesus in tact? Is he still here?'," said Robertson.
Robertson found the answer to his questions. He found the figurine buried in the ashes. It was untouched.
"There will be a million miracles that come from this whole disaster and I think our miracle happened for us today," said Robertson.
Robertson described the state of his property as "bleak." The small statue serves as a symbol of hope for him and his family.
"We thought we would never see a thing that we owned again and we are finding things that are important to us," said Robertson.
"[We've] gone from apprehension to hope now that we are going to recover some parts of our lives that we thought were lost."
Robertson will keep the small Christmas statue close as he picks up the pieces and moved forward.

"I hate to be too grim but I fear an awful fight over the debt limit that is going to terrify the people of the United States and the world," says Bob Bixby, the executive director of the Concord Coalition.
"It's clear that Republicans see the debt ceiling as a club they can use, at least as a last resort, to get spending concessions from the president. I think we are in for a very acrimonious 2013 on fiscal policy," he adds.

Over time, gas prices rise and fall. During the past few months, there have been major increases at the pump. Fortunately, there are ways to keep costs down by conserving the amount of fuel you burn each time you drive.
Just as cars are diverse in their design and appearance, they also vary in the miles you are able to drive per gallon. Until we can all afford to purchase an electric car, the money saving ideas and tips to save gas listed below should help you save money as you get the best gas mileage from your vehicle.
Here are six tips to save gas—and money:
Tip 1:
First and foremost, read your owner's manual to discover the best octane level for your vehicle. Most take regular octane, but that isn't a given.
Tip 2:
Start your car when you're ready to start driving. You may remember how cars used to need time to warm up, but that isn't the case anymore. Turn off your engine whenever you can while waiting in a drive-through line or other similar situation and start up only when you're ready to leave.
Tip 3:
Drive the speed limit. According to a leading government website, you pay an additional 26 cents per gallon for gas on average for every 5 miles faster than 50 miles per hour that you go.
Tip 4:
Use your cruise control feature to boost your fuel economy.
Tip 5:
Keep a regular schedule for your car's tune-ups, using the owner's manual as your guideline. You will also want to regularly change your oil, which is a struggle for many people. Honor the reminder sticker's date each time.
Tip 6:
Finally, practice good tire maintenance. Tires that are aligned and inflated properly will help with your gas mileage and will also help to protect your tires.
What tips to save gas do you have? Any money saving ideas you'd like to share?

Nice retro build! I want to do one myself someday!
Guys here is the origonal A1 from back in 1968. Tim and my best Bro Moose Munoz. Had full auto, semi and safe.
Am I getting old? Damn they seemed so light compared to these new ones the Military carries..
Anyone know the weight difference from the old A-1 too the new one the young guys are carrying..
I should have mailed the damn thing home and registered it... Nobody was keeping track of them.. Wonder what a full auto registerd A-1 would go for?
Have a bunch of pictures. Have to get off my lazy ass and post some close ups for you guys.
Guys were mailing home Russian and Chinese AKs.. Stupid me did not want those junk guns.
"Man needs but two things to survive alone in the woods. A blow up female doll and his trusty old AK-47" - Thomas Jefferson 1781
last time i saw a M16A1 sale it went for $12,000 for the full NFA deal. that has been a few years ago. my FFL was a NFA dealer and DOD certified contractor for many years. he has a couple of H&R,colt and hydromatic m16a1s along with various HKs from the early 1980s --i don't recall what he paid for um-- i know he got those HKs for like $220 each not counting the NFA tax of course and a few uzis and some mac-10s. my guess is when he paid $220 for the HKs that is about what he got the rest for.
a few years ago he had some problems and sold some of the collection off . i know he sold one UZI to a collector for $6,000--and a MP5 for $8,000!
the bad thing is back in the day he was telling me" you better get you some of these HKs,FNFALs uzis and m16s while the getting is good! and I balked at that $200 tax stamp! LOL! damn $200 don't seem like much at all today!
weight? i think the a2 is a about 1 lb more --the barrel alone is an extra 1/2lb and the a2 upper and a few other little things add a few oz.
i all ways liked the old A1s -- i sort of wished they had stuck with the pencil barrel for the a2 as even with the pencil barrel they all ways seemed to be accurate shooters .
1 lb.. Damn I must have been young and in shape j4. Small hurricane here, the Army Reserve came in to town to help hand out food and ice.
Young Troop let me hold his M-4 or whatever they are called.. My God it felt like a 100lbs.. Asked if he wanted to sell it but he said he could get in big big trouble for doing that.
Any advantage too the pencil barrel on full auto? Accuracy, I would guess, would be better with the heavier barrel.
Put a few rounds through the A-1 on full auto, they held up very well. We beat the piss out of them and were of the generation of "The weapon that does not need cleaning." Hell I do not think their was a cleaning kit in the whole company.. They kept going bang..
With all due respect to our discussions on magazine.. We abused the hell out of the original ones also. In the dirt, dropped them, all kinds of disrespectful things.
They worked also. Any problems, heave it grab another one.. No slings, slings got caught on stuff.. 300 rounds max carry. Some guys carried a bit more..
ADD: Oh God no bayonets. We traded those too the Marines.. Those guys liked them..
"Man needs but two things to survive alone in the woods. A blow up female doll and his trusty old AK-47" - Thomas Jefferson 1781
I really miss my old A1 from back in the day. Colt it was. It wasn't heavy, as long as you were holding it like John Wayne!!! Sumbeach felt like 100 pounds after about 5 minutes holding it with one finger by the front sight, with your arm fully out stretched. Damn arm hurts just remembering the fun......
Enforcement, NOT Amnesty!!!!!!
"If theyre going to come here illegally, apply for & receive assistance through a corrupted Government agency encouraging this lawless behavior, work under the table & send billions of dollars each year back to their families in Mexico, while bleeding local economies dry, protest in our streets waving their Mexican flags DEMANDING rights, while I have to press 1′ for English, then they need to be shipped back to where they came from!" -Chad Miller
Got my kit a couple of hours ago. Tried to post pics but friggin new phone doesn't know the drill. Over all am pleased. Fore stock missing a couple of teeth, butt stock has broken butt plate with part of top missing. Carrier looks good. Upper receiver good, no cracks and missing 30% anodizing. Kit appears complete. Think I go the retro route with retro wear like Bubbamauser. Royal Tiger came through for me. YMMV
thanks for the tip Bubbamauser!
Nice Retro build Bubba! Now I want to build one!

It doesn't get weirder than this.
A liberal Democrat from California wants to help conservative Republicans in Maine find somebody to run against moderate GOP US Senator Olympia Snowe.
OK, it might get weirder if it involved space aliens. But barring a UFO snatching Snowe's husband — John McKernan, former governor and current chairman of the board of Education Management Corp., a for-profit college operator accused of using improper student-recruiting techniques ("You promised our little Xzzrrx she'd qualify to be an intergalactic pilot, even though she flunked out of flight-attendant school for spilling hot coffee on the ice people of Antares Scorpii IV") — this is as strange as it gets.
Unless more legislators decide to pull guns on strangers in doughnut-shop parking lots.
Anyway, back to the California kook. He's Joshua Grossman of Oakland, and on his website, he says he's "memorized/tracked the names, voting records & political state/district demography of all 535 members of Congress since he was thirteen years old." Grossman's organization, called Progressive Kick ("Give Conservatives The Boot!"), claims it had a big impact on races in Nevada and Delaware last year and in Wisconsin recently, although I couldn't find any evidence of that.
A couple of weeks ago, Grossman called Carol Weston of Montville, a former GOP state senator and current Maine director of the conservative advocacy group Americans For Prosperity. Weston had been rumored to be considering a primary challenge to Snowe, but now says she has "no plans" to do so.
That doesn't mean Weston is supporting the incumbent, as she is unhappy with the senator's lackluster record of support for right-wing causes. But she's not about to endorse idiots with no cash and no clue, just because they hold positions that make Republican Governor Paul LePage look like a liberal.
"My question to those people is 'What strategy do you have?'" she said. "How can you win a primary and a general election? They have to look at both of these scenarios."
Weston seems rational. Which is more than can be said for Scott D'Amboise of Lisbon Falls and Andrew Ian Dodge of Harpswell, both of whom have announced they're taking on Snowe in the GOP primary, even though both graduated from college with degrees in whackjob. While polls have shown most Republican voters prefer someone more conservative than Snowe, those same voters, confronted with D'Amboise and Dodge, said they'd rather be probed anally by creatures from outer space.
Which is where Grossman thinks he comes in.
No, not the anal probe.
This guy wants Weston to help him find a conservative wingnut to knock off Snowe next June, thereby allowing the Democrats to take the Senate seat in November.
"When I didn't express any interest, he got frustrated," said Weston. "He said he'd just have to find a man with more guts."
He'd also have to find a Democratic candidate. In the unlikely event that some frothing-at-the-mouth maniac defeats Snowe in the primary, the donkey party has nobody running who's even as credible as D'Amboise or Dodge. So Republicans still might hold the seat.
Then, there's the evidence that Maine's senior senator isn't vulnerable to attacks from either the left or right, given her ability to adjust to changes in the political climate. It's not so much that Snowe switches positions to suit the electoral mood (although, she's not adverse to doing so). It's that she adjusts her image so it appears she's in the political mainstream, wherever that might be at the moment.

Coal Ash Contaminates Our Lives
The toxic waste created by coal-fired power plants, coal ash is polluting communities all across America. This is the story of one of those places, La Belle, Pennsylvania:
A small community was promised a recreational dream. Instead, they got a toxic nightmare. This is their battle against coal ash:
For decades, coal ash has polluted our waters and our communities. We will not let polluter profits triumph over public health. You can help win this fight.
Coal Ash is a Hazardous Waste.
Coal ash, the toxic remains of coal burning in power plants, is full of chemicals that cause cancer, developmental disorders and reproductive problems. It poisons our water and kills fish and wildlife.
But despite the threat, both the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the White House have done little to protect the waters we drink from coal ash contamination.
The Long Fight for Safeguards from Coal Ash is Almost Won.
Environmental litigation has prevailed, with local communities to finally gain some protection from coal ash pollution.
In a settlement to a lawsuit brought by Earthjustice on behalf of ten public interest groups and the Moapa Band of Paiutes, the EPA agreed to finalize the first-ever federal regulations for the disposal of coal ash.
Together, We Will Achieve Strong, Enforceable Protections for Our Water and Our Future.
We fight in the courts for a long-term solution to this toxic menace: the first-ever federal rules protecting our water and our health from exposure to toxic coal ash pollution. And we act on behalf of dozens of clients and coalition partners to defeat legislative attempts to subvert federally enforceable safeguards of coal ash
We need strong safeguards that protect our health and our environment. Polluters don't want to clean up their toxic mess and are pressuring the EPA and Congress to ignore this growing problem. But together, we can illuminate the coal ash problem and push decision-makers to protect the air we breathe and the water we drink. Join us by taking action today.
Pounds of toxic coal ash power plants generate every year—900 pounds for every person in the United States.

I made some splits a few weeks ago and I introduced mated queens in all four splits. Now in one of the hives she is letting them build a queen cell. Just one queen cell, but this is a fresh hive with only 2 1/2 frames drawn so far, and this queen cell was not in hive before queen was introduced. She seams to be laying a good pattern, and she is good and healthy so I dont think they would be replacing her, but I have been wrong in the past. They are not bound up so they should not be wanting to swarm. Oh and this is not a normal queen cell this is actually a supersedure cell.
Should I crush the cell and see if they build another?
If they do build another should I pull the new queen from that hive and see if another hive will accept her better? (I have a hive that could use a new queen)

Hathaway joins a distinguished group of highly respected and accomplished people who have quit the position of Cybersecurity Czar. She wasn't even the actual Cybersecurity Czar, she was just the acting one, but it appears even that was too much to take for her. She cited personal reasons for resigning, but media reports suggest a more plausible reason for resigning – frustration at "spinning her wheels" and not being able to accomplish anything. Sounds familiar, doesn't it. Whether you are a Cybersecurity Czar or a CISO, the challenges for this position are very similar.

In Search Of...The Nutcracker
The La Crosse Dance Centre brings this holiday favorite to life
You don't have to be a ballet lover to recognize the songs popular songs of the The Nutcracker. The story of the Nutcracker is holiday tradition shared by people all over the world - and since 1989 it's been a tradition right here at home.
Nikki Balsamo is the current director of the La Crosse Dance Centre show and has been involved in the production from the start. And even after 24 years still finds magic in the story.
"Every year I fall in love with it a little more," Balsamo said. "There's a girl named Maria. And she receives a nutcracker doll from her uncle. He weaves into the doll a magical dream for her. And the nutcracker comes to life as well as some evil mice and rats. The nutcracker comes to help Maria but actually she ends up conquering the rat queen and freeing the nutcracker from a doll to human form."
Stepping into the lead role of Maria for the second straight year is Central High School senior Katherine Burelbach. "I remember the first time I wanted to be Maria. I was in the battle scene as a battle soldier. I saw the Maria and she needs to catch a sword and she couldn't catch it and I was like 'I can catch that sword!' And I was determined."
Katherine is one of only four girls to repeat the starring role. "So that's a really unique and fun thing that she's doing the role twice."
But there is also a first happening this season. Aquinas senior John Divney is the first ever high school student to tackle the challenging role of the nutcracker. "We've always either brought in a professional or had a college student," says Balsamo.
"It was a far fetched dream for me," says Divney. "It was one of those things I knew I would have to work really hard for. It was about 2 years ago that I knew it could be a reality and I worked even harder and here I am."
There are 90 cast members from the community ranging in age from 4 to adults.
And there's truly something in the story for everyone. "My favorite part still to this day is the battle scene," says Divney. "Just cause I loved the soldiers and the danger when you think the rats are going to win and this figure comes out and saves the day."
Burelbach adds, "It's like a tradition and it just brings the Christmas spirit to La Crosse."
For Balsamo, the magic comes down to one thing. "It's joyful. That's the essence of the nutcracker ballet is joy and dreams and celebrating. That's a wonderful thing to have in a community the size of La Crosse. That's just a wonderful tradition to have."

A Cabin in Georgia's Appalachians
A-1 Vacation Rentals • Helen, GA
Escape Kit
- A Two-Night Stay in a Select Cabin for Up to Four Guests, Sundays through Thursdays ($269) or Fridays and Saturdays ($299)
- A Bottle of Wine and Souvenir Wine Glasses
- A Taste of Helen Basket and Firewood
- Add Additional Guests for $10 Per Guest Per Night Paid Directly to the Lodging on Arrival
- Combine Unlimited Vouchers for an Extended Stay
The Destination
Capturing the simple charm of a quiet main street busy with seasonal festivals and a rolling mountain backdrop, the town of Helen, Georgia, offers a quiet Appalachian respite just 90 minutes from Atlanta. Gone are the crowds and high rises of the city—fishing poles and rafting oars on the Chattahoochee River are much more prevalent in the summer, as are strolls down twinkling cobblestone streets in the winter. Hunt for antiques in the historic Alpine village, go for a hike in the nearby state parks, or sit back for a tasting at a local winery—whatever you do, just drink it in slowly.
The Digs
Peppered among the edges of rustic pine tree groves, the cabins outfitted by A-1 Vacation Rentals are individually decorated homes equipped to suit a range of tastes and group sizes. Stay in the two-bedroom Alpine Rose cabin and enjoy two televisions, a hot tub, and a grill on the deck. Or, choose the Fallow Run cabin for four guests, and nestle into a space that features a fireplace, hot tub, and two bathrooms. With more than a dozen cabins to choose from, you'll have your pick of the perfect view from which to watch the sun set behind the mountain horizon.
The Diversions
• Spy black bears and more on a biking excursion through the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest
• Have a post-hike picnic at Anna Ruby Falls
• Float down the Chattahoochee River on an inner-tube with Shoot the Hooch
• Share a pie at Nacoochee Village Tavern and Pizzeria for a filling dinner
"Today many businesses along Helen's central streets sport a distinctive German facade, giving an initial impression that you've stumbled on a Bavarian vista in the middle of Appalachia."-- Read Fodor's Review of Helen and Sautee-Nacoochee Valley

Arsène Wenger says it is imperative that his players are "settled psychologically" when the new season kicks off in August.
Arsenal face a demanding start to their Premier League campaign that sees them travel to Manchester United, Chelsea and Tottenham in the opening months, as well as hosting Liverpool and facing a two-legged Champions League play-off.
With speculation surrounding player movement likely to remain while the transfer window is open, Wenger has called for his squad to focus on the challenge in front of them and nothing else.
"For us it is important that the team settles, psychologically, as quickly as possible because we have a tough start," he said. "We play all the big clubs away in the first half of the season.
"It is important that the players focus on the season and not the transfer market. The players who are here as well will ask 'will he go? will he go?' - that is not the way to prepare for the season.
"We have an advantage, usually, because we [have] played together for a few years - we do not need too much to work on our technical co-ordination because the players know each other well. I have a basic team in my head that can start the season."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Anastasia, love your pumpkin!
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Anastasia, love your pumpkin!
Life is Good!
Visit my blog, closed the website:
Just finished some funky fish and some crazy lady bugs! Sending them home tomorrow!!
oh your sending lady bugs/ that will make her dad so very happy. He really enjoys getting those lady bugs. Tlambing I got your fabric and I know you got mine as you whipped up a block fast as lightening for me. I have been fortunate enough to receive 11 blocks from this group so thank you for being so quick everyone. I love them all. I am almost ready to lay them out just to take a group shot for everyone.. its nice to see them like that when you get enough back you can .. see it? I love this swap and will gladly join another one.
Here today... why what a lucky bunch we are.
Is not my pumpkin! :P is someone else's pumpkin.
I'm so tired of being tired.
I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it.
Halloween Candy..... I liked the Maltballs. No one else like them in my family so I got my brother's and sisters' also. I now try to buy things that are not Candy. The kidos will be getting pencils this year. One year they got school folders with a sheet of bicycle safety rules. You think most kids would be mad but I will never forget one little trickers reaction: "Wow, I always wanted my own school folder." He was about 4 and not in school yet. Mom said she never has bought him school supplies yet. I just thought that was precious.
Hubby is working again so more blocks will be made. so off to the sewing room I go..... Have a good weekend all.
What a great idea - folders! Especially when they are on clearance at Walmart now!! We don't give out candy either - usually get the snack bags of pretzels.
Quilting as I go traveling down the road
Count your blessings, not your problems.
I help my mom pick out something different to hand out every year. Fruit roll-ups. Individual snack size microwave popcorn, juice boxes, those crackers with cheese or peanut butter packets.. pudding cups. We go to sams club. Last year she didn't get as many kids though. 5 years of living in the ghetto I've only ever had my door knocked on once so I don't bother.
I'm so tired of being tired.
I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it.
Yes, I got your block and love it. I was just going in to post to whom I have received.
Celina Bowman, Traveling gramma, and you. Thank you so much for the two you sent me Janet, they are marvelous. Here come pictures. ctmhjenn
Gramma to Isabella and NEW baby brother Enzo!
I have been looking all over at the top of this post for an icon that looks like a tree inside of it for me to add my pictures, but I don't see one. I have read the info on the page on how to post a picture, to downsizing and such, but I do not see a place where I click to add a picture. Any help here?

When there is a Presidentially declared major disaster for which individuals are eligible for assistance, the state of Mississippi may request authorization to issue disaster food assistance benefits. The United States Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service approves state requests to operate D-SNAP after the state has received a Presidential disaster declaration for individual assistance and grocery stores are open and operating in your area. Once program operations have been approved, the Mississippi Department of Human Services (MDHS) will set a limited period for you to file a D-SNAP application.
MDHS certification staff must review your household's circumstances to determine eligibility. You may apply in person for Mississippi D-SNAP benefits at an application site in your area and, if eligible, obtain your Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card. The EBT card will be loaded with your D-SNAP benefits and works like a debit card at most grocery stores.
You can access a listing of Mississippi application sites in your area at:
Eligibility: You may be eligible for food assistance through the Mississippi D-SNAP if you: Are not already receiving food benefits through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), which is the regular state food assistance program (Current SNAP households may be eligible for supplemental disaster benefits); Were living or, in some cases, working in the disaster area at the time of the disaster; and Experienced at least one of the following adverse effects: Unreimbursed disaster-related expenses (e.g., home or business repairs, temporary shelter expenses, evacuation expenses, home/business protection, disaster-related personal injury including funeral expenses); and Lost or inaccessible income Your eligibility for D-SNAP benefits is based on your "Disaster Gross Income" or DGI. When you apply for benefits, your caseworker will calculate your DGI by adding your take-home pay, unearned income (such as public assistance payments) and liquid resources (such as bank accounts and cash on hand) and subtracting your unreimbursed disaster-related expenses. The maximum DGI is set each year and is based on household size. If your DGI is less than or equal to the maximum you may qualify for D-SNAP. To see current DGIs for various household sizes visit: http://www.fns.usda.gov/snap/government/FY11_Income_Standards.htm

I've never considered myself to be a smart person. Perhaps, if I were I would have chosen a different career path. One that required a whole lot less hours and paid me a whole pile of money.
But, I discovered at a young age that I had a knack for jotting down bits of information and crafting them into a story. My advanced English teacher told me that I had talent for writing.
It was that love of the written word and finding just the right word to make a sentence combined with curiosity that prompted me to go into journalism.

I as of right now i have 19 hives 3 from last year 8 from swarms {all mine but one i think}3 i bought from yale apiaries and 5 splits.
All the swarms are strong builders the splits where slow to take off but are doing good now and hopefuly will be ready for winter buy OCT.
All my bee's are chemical free and the nucs i got where from treatment free bee keepers so my beeyard is chemical free .
I'm a organic gardener so i want my bee's that way also .
Right now 2 of the hives that were from last year have high mite counts and DWV and a lot of crawlers and they are throwing out alot of weak bee's so i'm quessing they will fail . A feel crapie knowing i could save the hives by treating with apiguard but i want strong bee's and i want to do it right.
I have SBB and used drone frames and the two hives that are weak swarmed so they had a brood breaks and one was queen less for 2 month so it realy had no eggs for awhile and still had a mite overload. Now the one hive that is doing well from the year before is looking strong so i quess i should breed off that hive next year if she's doing well come spring. The rest are this year hives all are doing well low mite counts and should do well this winter. My plan is to allways build new hives every year out off my strongests hives come spring .
Any advice on my endeavor would be cool I'm a thrid year bee keeper and the frist year i failed two hive both died so real i'm only second year bee keeper with 19 hives and i made queens and have 12 acres for my bee's. I want to build a better bee.

As cold weather sets in, I have some time to play with decorating hives again. Here is my newest method..vintage tin signs with crackle paint.
Click on the slideshow to see photos of steps to make hive, click on my facebook page for more details. I really need to make some videos, as the brush stroke method is importaint for your crackle success. Maybe Santa will bring me a tripod and small video camera
Here's the slideshow:
Facebook page:
Remember when decorating your hives, generally the hives will be viewed at a bit of a distance. Your decorations need to be large enough to be noticed.
Hope this gives you some ideas!
Here is the link the the beesource thread about this hive top material. Second page about half way down:

That looks good! Thanks for the pics!
BUBBA II., fresh out of the oven from KG-GunKote.
I ended up with a somewhat bubba built AMD65. It was on a older OOW/ITM receiver. Soft with a few dents and an odd optics rail.
No 922r parts and an oddly fabricated AMD65 original brake that was hand extended with braze welding? it appeared.
Rattle can paint it appeared and a bit of cant to the trunnion/receiver rivet work.
I pulled it apart from the old receiver., I already have AMD's so I decided to fab it up in a bubba style.
The buttstock is a micro-Galil folder welded to the AMD65 pivot block.
The charging handle is welded up to clear the folder stock.
The muzzle attachment/extension is Tantal.
FSB/GB is from the IO offerings.
Front furniture is some Russian set I purchased in a WTS section on line.
I want to fab up a selector extension so the safety can be released with the stock folded. Not as easy as I first though in order to get it to clear the carrier path when engaged. Still thinking on that.
The right side required shortening the rear long rivet heads and the selector pivot outside domesd area and a little inletting on the stock.

Bubba II did some nice work on that!

Looks good!
Given any thought to a left side safety?
I likey!

Great job Akblue!!! That is a work of art compared to the start. Wow!!!! That thing screams for a 40 round mag though. I really like the folder set-up. I never thought about using the AMD folder mechanism with another type stock. Way to think outside the box.

cake from scratch
I can't find a recipe for cake that is as light and fluffy as a cake mix. They all have a lovely flavour but are heavier and denser than a mix. Even when I google "cake recipe" many of them start with a cake mix!
I try to avoid processed food and would love to find a recipe for a cake that was just as fluffy as a cake mix. What do you suggest?

Re: cake from scratch
Hiya Homecook. First of all, what type of cake are you trying to better? Can't say I've ever used a cake mix in my life. Tell us the type of cake and we can take it from there.

Plain white cake or devils food.

Re: cake from scratch
If you want a really light and fluffy cake then why not try making a sponge cake?
The thing is that with a sponge you do have to make sure the egg mix triples in size so an electric beater of some kind is needed.

Re: cake from scratch
Not exactly what I'm looking for but thanks for the advice anyway There must be something in the processing that makes them so fluffy...****.

Re: cake from scratch
Hi homecook,
I have a recipe that you might like - it really depends on the flour you use. I use White Wings gluten free flour which is rice flour based so is very light, fluffy and really good with any add-ins (chocolate chips, apple & cinnamon etc):
1 cup sugar
1 cup butter
1 cup flour
3 large eggs
Cream butter and sugar.
Add one egg at a time until totally combined.
Add flour and mix on low until all flour is incorporated.
Makes great cupcakes with apple pieces in the middle and cinnamon & sugar dusted on top. Great by itself too.

Re: cake from scratch
It's probably just finer ground flour and more sugar that make packet cakes so light.

Re: cake from scratch
It's the leavening, which is usually not part of a sponge cake. One normally uses cake flour for fine cakes which is milled finer than all-purpose flour.
eta: Baking cakes with professional results is tricky because every step and the ingredients and equipment used make a difference in the end product. Still, I always find that barring serious mistakes like a dense texture, etc., homemade tastes fresher and is always preferable to a mix.

Re: cake from scratch
Thanks Ms. Pablo for your answer. it makes the most sense. I usually do make homemade just because I like make everything possible from scratch. This is just a conundrum that has puzzled me for a very long time. And once in a while, depending on the result I'm trying to achieve, I end up resorting to the dreaded processed cake mix.

text: As you might guess I am new to this forum. I used to raise bees as a hobbyist in the late sixties. Life got busy and earning a living became a primary goal. I retired this past fall and obtained my Master Gardeners certificate as well as one for Organic Gardening. Now I'm back digging in the earth and started educating myself in order to get back to the bees. I went to quite a few seminars this spring and thought I would make preparations to raise only hygienic strains ie, Russians etc the spring of 2010. I have been helping friends this spring and summer and the next thing I knew I brought home a swarm and another. Problem is I was up to 1:30 am building equipment in order to house my new "brood" so to speak. Beekeeping today is a quite a bit different than the sixties regarding pests and pathogens. A good hive managemnt program almost seems the norm rather than the exception. I am looking forward to learning and hopefully sharing as a member of this great site.

Walking, cycling, skating the rail trail
Through the trees, alongside fields and on the shores of the lakes is the Paul Bunyan Trail, a multi-use trail that runs all the way from Brainerd to Bemidji.
The trail is especially popular in the summer with cyclists, inline skaters and pedestrians.
The 112-mile paved trail is a rails-to-trails project, one of four in Minnesota. Along with the Heartland, Casey Jones and Sakatah Singing Hills trails, the Paul Bunyan Trail was created by paving over abandoned railroad lines.
According to railstotrails.org, the benefit of rail lines is they are most often flat or follow a gently sloping grade.
The first paved 50 miles of the Paul Bunyan Trail to open ran from Brainerd and Baxter to Hackensack. Those miles were completed in 1992 over Burlington Northern tracks that were first constructed in 1893.
The Paul Bunyan Trail is the longest paved rails-to-trails path in the nation and is entirely non-motorized, except for snowmobiles.
From south to north, towns along the trail have stops and parks for travelers. The first major stop north of Brainerd, Baxter and Merrifield is Nisswa.
The Paul Bunyan Trail travels right through the center of Nisswa, as it does through many towns on the trail. Nisswa is home to shopping and restaurants very close to the trail, as well as public restroom facilities. Those facilities will be under construction after July 4, but portable bathrooms will be available.
Nisswa is also well-known for its summertime turtle races. Registration for the races begins at 1 p.m. and races begin at 2 p.m.
Pequot Lakes
From Nisswa to Pequot Lakes is six miles of trail that passes alongside several lakes.
Jenna Crawford, Pequot Lakes area director for the Brainerd Lakes Chamber, said the trail from Pequot Lakes to Nisswa has beautiful landscape as it passes through the Cullen lakes and both trees and fields.
North of Pequot Lakes the trail is a little straighter, she said, and follows along Highway 371. She noted that north of Pequot Lakes the trail crosses over the highway on a pedestrian overpass, which people enjoy as a lookout point.
In the heart of Pequot Lakes along the trail, Crawford said there's a chamber building that's open from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. with drinks, business information, community information and bathrooms.
There are two ends to Pequot Lakes' Trailside Park, Crawford said. The south side has picnic tables and is less shaded, while the north side is home to the Veterans Memorial, a gazebo, band shelter and Dru Sjodin's memorial garden, called Dru's Garden.
Parking and access to the trail is also located at the Trailside Park.
Pine River
Pine River is the next major stop heading north on the Paul Bunyan Trail. Jenkins, three miles north of Pequot Lakes, offers some stops in the form of gas stations, restaurants and shops, but no public restrooms. There is a parking and access area in Jenkins as well.
Alongside the trail in Pine River, which is nine miles from Pequot Lakes, is the historic train depot and chamber welcome center. The trail also follows along the Pine River for a portion of the route.
Chamber director John Wetrosky said there are 13 places to eat, from delis to sit-down restaurants, within one mile of the welcome center along the trail in Pine River.
Wetrosky also said many bicyclists enjoy walking down Pine River's main street, Barclay Avenue, to the Pine River dam and picnic area.
"I always thought it was one of the prettiest little places there was," Wetrosky said.
There's also a swimming beach and public bathrooms near the dam.
Nine miles north of Pine River, the next town along the trail is Backus. Wetrosky said there is a parking access area in Backus, as well as a portable restroom and water.
From Backus, the next town along the trail is Hackensack, which is seven miles north. In Hackensack, trail users will find that the trail goes right next to the city park, which includes a playground, swimming beach, pavilion and picnic tables.
The city's library, chamber building and public restrooms are also nearby.
A drinking fountain and water spigot are located on the restroom building, facing the playground, and there's a pop machine next to the restrooms as well.
Chamber staff also noted that the trail is only about a block away from Highway 371, and many shops and restaurants line the road. The trail was reconstructed just last year.
From Hackensack, the trail goes another 17 miles to Walker, then continues all the way to Bemidji, where it ends at Lake Bemidji State Park.

Doodlebug Sweet Cake Giveaway
Today, I am hosting a little give-away on the Doodlebug's blog. The rule is to follow my blog, leave a comment here, and go to Doodlebug's blog to leave another comment. Then you will be entered to win the entire Sweet Cake collection.
I got this little red mailbox from Target many moons ago and finally I have found the most perfect Valentine's collection: sweet cake that match the red exactly. This will make a sweet little gift for someone, so I thought.
Of course, one never has any peace while working on important projects. Second Born just couldn't stay in her room long enough to let me finish my work. She kept on coming over and playing with my box of Doodlebug sweet collection. Not that I blame her, the colors are so vibrant and design completely adorable. I tried to pacify her by offering up several pieces of scraps which she gladly accepted, nothing bigger than 2x2 inches of course! However, she continue to linger and pester me to find out who is getting this little mailbox. Finally in exasperation, I told her that she can have it if only she would just leave me to finish it! She squealed with delight and immediately returned the scraps I gave her earlier back to me. "Now that I'm getting the mailbox, you can have these back!" LOL. So much for making a gift for someone else, I guess this one is going to Second Child's room! :)
To make matters worse, today, she triumphantly informed First Born: "Mama made this mailbox for me and you don't have one!" Grrr...
Thank you again for visiting! I will be back with some Fancy projects soon :)

WOW! That is a SUPER CUTE mailbox! I know my daughter would LOVE it too! I'm having the same experience with a little wooden valentine bird house that I am altering - my daughter is so desperate for it and has bugged me SO much that I gave in too! Kids - don't you just LOVE them!! :-) Thanks for the chance to win! :-) x Just about to become a follower! x
