Keith Collection. "She is a nationally acclaimed authority on civil rights law and will provide attendees with an insightful lecture."

Constance Rice
Constance Rice is co-director of The Advancement Project, which recently, along with the ACLU, filed a lawsuit against Michigan's Secretary of State Terri Lynn Land, challenging the voter purge program. Rice is also a civil rights lawyer known for successfully tackling problems of inequity and exclusion in unorthodox ways. She has received more than 60 major awards for her work in expanding opportunity and advancing multi-racial democracy. As a litigator, Rice has filed and won traditional class action civil rights cases redressing police misconduct, race and sex discrimination and unfair public policy in transportation, probation and public housing.
Rice and her colleagues have led campaigns and bond initiatives that transferred over $25 billion into systems that support the poor. In January of 2007, she released the highly regarded report, "A Call to Action: A Case for a Comprehensive Solution to L.A.'s Gang Violence Epidemic," which was commissioned by the City Council's Ad Hoc Committee on Gang Violence and Youth Development.
Hallmarks of Rice's work include solving problems, reducing conflict, turning opponents into allies, and winning. She graduated from Harvard College in 1978 and New York University School of Law in 1984. She also served as clerk for The Honorable Damon J. Keith, Senior Judge, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, and has earned a first-degree black belt in the Korean martial art Tae Kwon Do.
The Damon J. Keith Law Collection of African-American Legal History
The Damon J. Keith Collection, initiated by Professor Emeritus Edward J. Littlejohn, is dedicated to recording the history of African American lawyers and judges. Upon the founding contribution of papers and records by the Honorable Damon J. Keith, senior judge of the U. S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, the Keith Collection was firmly established. It has since taken a leading role in memorializing Judge Keith's commitment to freedom and justice for all.
A partnership between the Walter Reuther Archives and Wayne Law, the Keith Collection has already been designated as the repository for the papers and works of historical importance by many distinguished persons, including Kenneth Cockrel, Judge George Crockett and Steven Lighthill. It also includes a compiled oral history of the legendary fighter for justice, attorney Ernest Goodman.
The Keith Collection uses its endowment, now exceeding $2.1 million, to gather oral histories, support lectures and research, provide educational teaching materials and traveling exhibits, and generally assist in the preservation and popularization of the lessons learned during the course of the historic struggle of the African American people for democracy in the United States.

About Me Avid Cyclist

Comments about Nashbar Zurich Photochromic Sunglasses:
These are great glasses for late afternoon into evening rides when you want to start with sunglasses but finish with clear glasses. The fogging only happens in late fall when the evenings get cool. No fogging issues in the summer.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Love these glasses. Great value. Perfect tint thus far.
Does not change tint.
By MNMTB

If you are looking for these to change tint and get darker in the sun buy something else.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
great specs would be even better with ability to read print
By partner gardner
from baltimore md.
I use glasses predawn when I start my ride. because I wear glasses, I'm unable to read my watch or computer until the sun comes up, that's my only problem with the sun glasses.
Good for road cycling

About Me Casual/ Recreational
They work well going from daylight to shade and even to nighttime.
Almost my favorite
By Jim
from Mountain Ranch, CA
These have the same comfortable, lightweight frame as the old Nashbar glasses that had light yellow lenses. I prefer the older, non darkening lenses because they gave adequate protection in most conditions and still offered good visibility in dark places like tunnels, etc. The photochromatic lenses are better than plain dark lenses but still don't lighten fast enough when entering heavy shadows or a tunnel. They are a little too dark for overcast or light rain.
Works well in dimmer light.
By Gerald
from Minneapolis MN
I was looking for some eye protection, mostly from bugs, that I could use when it is darker also. These glasses satisfy that need well.

By zydecosailor
from Leeds, Mass
in bright light no noticeable photochromic effect..
Good value purchase
By brodavefla
from Jacksonville, FL
Used for road cycling & mountain biking both. Positives: Just enough tint to cut the glare without diminishing perception of visual detail; good fit for a large head (size 7 5/8). Negative: they scratch easily. Still, good value for the price.
By garne2t
from San Jose, CA
I have owned these glasses for almost 2 years, use them about 2x/week for mountain biking and they are still working great. They fit well and are lightweight. I find they stay on well and don't slide down my nose even when sweating. They are especially great for rides at sunset where I get sun protection and they light up to almost clear for riding at night. I use them day and night. I like that the lens doesn't get too dark in the sunlight as I prefer a lens that is not too dark so I can see the terrain best.As for some who say they fog, all glasses fog, especially in cold weather, and you simply need a little anti fog spray to prevent fogging. In a pinch, use your spit. (A scuba diving staple to keep your mask from fogging.)I recommended these to two friends who also bought them and they love them too.

Planning to make this jig. http://robo.bushkillfarms.com/downlo...ssemblyJig.pdf
It calls for wood that is 5 inches in width, but the 1x6s I bought are 5 1/2 inches in width. Question is whether I should cut off that extra 1/2 inch, which will be a pain for me to do since I don't own a table saw. Would need to do so with a circular saw.
Is the 5 inch size necessary for shallow frames? Medium frames?

Re: new recipes with a sweeter touch
Try it with cherries. I posted a recipe in the Foodology thread a few months ago for duck breast with cherries or other soft fruit. It's a Raymond Blanc recipe originally, and very good. We've made it with blackberries and raspberries in the past, and they do reduce to a jammy consistency, but are also still delicious.

Re: new recipes with a sweeter touch
Ah, found it.
2 duck breasts, trimmed
110g cherries
5tbsp honey
1 glass red wine
1tsp mixed spice
Season the duck with salt and pepper, slash through the skin, and fry skin-side down for 5-6 minutes. Turn, and add the cherries, honey, wine and spices. Cook for a further 5-6 minutes. Remove the duck and set aside to rest. Reduce the sauce, and adjust the seasoning. I found I needed more honey and spice than I originally added.
Cappelli d'angelo with cream and mustard
Cook half a pack of angel hair pasta (250g). Mix together 6tbsp double cream, 8tbsp white wine, and 2tbsp whole grain mustard. When the pasta is done, drain and stir into the cream mix. The acidity of the vinegar goes well with the honeyed, spiced duck.
Notes: I want to try the duck made with port, instead of wine, but by the time I thought of this the bottle of port I had had mysteriously depleted itself... Also, I think this might be nice with raspberries or blackberries, although I'd add them at the end of the sauce reducing time to avoid a pippy jammy goo.

Re: new recipes with a sweeter touch
I am not too fond of coriander (the herb/cilantro) but love the spice coriander. So I guess it depends on that. Orange and carrot is somewhat of a classic and makes a nice balance of sweet and sour. With sea food: Nice idea!
For a quick sea food recipe try this:
Fry salmon or shrimps (or whatever you like) in olive oil. Just before it is done, pour over some cointreau (or other orange liqueur). Reduce for just a second. Add a spoonful cream or flambee if you like. Nice with some freshly ground black pepper on top

Big cats have roamed the earth for millions of years, though scientists aren't sure exactly how long. But a new study reveals that a skull of a snow leopard relative that was recently unearthed is 4.4 million year old. That makes it the oldest big cat fossil ever found.
A team of U.S. and Chinese paleontologists unearthed the skull of the newly-named Panthera blytheae in Tibet. The new specimen is not a direct ancestor to big cats, but it is closely related to the snow leopard, study leader Jack Tseng told the Associated Press. The fossil lends evidence to the belief that big cats evolved in Asia and spread out from there.
Origin of Big Cats
Big cats are apex predators, which means that they are at the top of the food chain and have few predators of their own. Also called pantherines, big cats include snow leopards, clouded leopards, tigers, lions, and jaguars. Based on genetic estimates, most scientists believe the felines first evolved in Central Asia. But previously, the oldest known big cat fossil was 3.6 million years old and found in Africa.
The new fossil findings were published in the November 13 issue of the science journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences. Tseng and his team were fossil hunting in the Himalayas in 2010 when they discovered scattered bones, including the buried cat skull. The researchers were able to determine its age by studying the surrounding rocks and soil. The new fossil is about the size of a large grapefruit, with a broad forehead similar to snow leopards and front teeth that were heavily worn. The skull indicates that the animal was about the size of a clouded leopard, which can grow up to 50 pounds. In 2012, the team returned to excavate more cat bones.
Paleontologist David Polly from Indiana University, who did not work on the study, told the Associated Press that the fossil is "convincingly older than the current record holder." He added that there could be even older big cat fossils in the Tibetan plateau to uncover. Maybe the mystery of big cats' origins will soon be solved.

Reviews of this property
The flat is perfectly located and I did enjoy staying there. The flat is tiny, but everything needed is in place and represents decent standard. The owner of the flat is very helpful and very kind, so I recommend this place.
We had a wonderfull stay in Paris, also thanks to our pretty good locaded accommodation. Studio Marais, very small indeed, provides everything necessary. Tres bien. Mercy beau coup Alex!
We spent 3 pleasant days in this little apartment in the Marais district. We have very felt at ease. A very friendly welcome, the apartment really equipped with everything you need and above all the location in the beautiful neighborhood made our stay perfect.
The infrastructure is awesome. Supermarkets (one BIO) and bakery less than 5 minutes' walk. The last straw was the underground parking. What more do you want? We would definitely book this apartment again next time.

Ein sehr freundlicher Empfang, das Apartment wirklich mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht und vor allem die Lage im wunderschönen Viertel machten unseren Aufenthalt perfekt.

We are in the process of building a top bar hive and would like to "keep" our bees as chemical free as possible. I ordered a package form a local beekeeper here (who doesn't keep top bar hives and is pretty mainstream I think). I just read that if you order bees that have been raised on chemicals they might not be strong enough to survive without chemicals.
Now I am worried that I need to cancel our order and reorder through someone who has more natural practices. I was trying to support a local beekeeper and would like to honor my verbal comittment to him, but also am concerned that I am setting myself up for failure. This is our first try at beekeeping and maybe I am over thinking this!
Any advice on traditionally raised bees (chemicals) being kept in an organic/chemical free manner?
Thanks for your advice/insights

Most keepers sold blow bees back before the big so called almond rush.[Ya right].not a bad proposition sell the shake bees for $25,no mites to worry about,no trucking cost,no worries of the trucks makeing it to california,no port of entries to worry about,guarenteed paycheck,new young queens for the next year,and what ever hives were left over got killed off.
Oh ya,instead of traveling all winter enjoy the holidays with the family.
Not having your equipment out all winter in the snow and mud sure would make it last allot longer. No wet moldy dead outs. No mice nests.
Right or wrong, this used to be quite a common practice. Economically it made sense when you were far up north, especially when you could make your own queens and splits cheap. We still know a couple beeks that do just as Tecumseh describes, but one we buy his blow bees, they end up in California.
I agree that I can't imagine killing them overwinter, I love keeping them too, there are better ways (for me).
I stop way short of condemning others for using the practice just because I disagree with it. Bees aren't sacred, and I don't see that a beehive much different than a cow or a chicken, especially considering the hard uses we put them to for pollination. And I like steak and hamburgers, so I'm not going to condemn them for killing the cow (I know it isn't an option with cows if you want steak). I don't have cows or chickens, and if I did would probably get as attached to them as I do my bees.
I also made sure to refer to honey produced this way as "chemical-free" as opposed to "organic", since there is the organic connection to keeping the hives alive. I do find this a little disingenuous since organic anything is primarily touted as "chemical-free", but since organic honey is virtually unattainable except a very few I suppose this is a moot point.
I'm a second generation comm. beekeeper. The mites were something we had to deal with for many years. This was a hard thing for my father and I to deal with. My Dad talks about the Good Old Days Before the Mites. Those are cool stories.
About 10 years ago I had to make changes, to feed the family. It was that or go and find a job that I hate doing every day. Before the mites we ran 1500 hives,and now I run 650-700. I take all the honey off in the fall and sell the honey to live on and buy 2# packages in the spring. This year I ran 650 hives and extracted 52 ton. That's only 160 lbs avg. but for the right price it feeds the kids and keeps me in business for another year.
I still try and bring 100-180 though winter, but those bees are worse than anything in the spring. It just costs me more money to bring them into spring. I work harder on these problem hive then I do on the packaged bees.
The "no chemicals" and "no pesticides" label on my product does make a difference. My beeswax sells as a cosmetic grade at $7.50 lb. The honey sells to mostly local beekeepers that keeps it local for health benefits. I wholesale my honey for over $3000 a ton. The price of bees, feed, and fuel keep going up, and I have to make a living.
My Dad was totally against this way of beekeeping 10 years ago. But go ahead and ask him today. This is the only way that he would do it with the mites. It's alway great hearing the stories about beekeeping before mites. I've been a beekeeper for over 25 years, and learn new things every year. This is the best way that I know to beekeep at this time.

I will take any bees that any beekeeper does not want to over winter.
If you build it they will comb it.<br />Tim Rolan
When I first read this I was admittedly a little bit stunned.
Here I am working hard to make sure they are in a position to stay alive all winter and some operations are just killing them off.
I see how it could make economic sense in certain circumstances but......

...what if everybody did it?

So King Bee, you want bees. I'll be done with my bees at the end of Sept. I had a guy take almost a whole truck load of my bees to FL this last year. Only bad thing about the way he did it. He damged some of my equipment and it took him 2 1/2 month to get them out of my boxes. Most of my brood boxes are full too. Which is great when I put the package in, in 4 months.
Because of beekeeper like me, the package beekeeper stay in business. And each year I buy bees, and the price keeps going up. What I'm seeing is that there is no young package beekeepers taking up the trade. I've been doing business with my package producer for over 15 years and he is a third generation comm. beekeeper, and his boys have degrees and won't be taking over the family business.
So what this means: in the next 5-8 year I'll have to find a better or different way of beekeeping again. That is a true beekeeper always doing what you have to do to enjoy what you do.

I don't see this as a "soap opera" or anything that hasn't already been seen in NFL negotiating. I think people just have unrealistic expectations as to when a player should sign.

Career Related Experience
Seeking Career Related Experience?
There are a variety of ways - paid and unpaid as well as for credit and not for credit - that will let you gain critical career related experience long before you enter a field. These experiences let you:
- Confirm your interest in a particular career field - did what you expect match reality?
- Develop the skills you need to be hired into the field and to advance
- Make connections that become part of your professional network
You may gain your career related experience through hands-on, on the job options like part-time or full-time work. It may come with academic credit if your curriculum allows for internships for credit.
Remember that quality experience does not always come with a pay check attached or with the option to earn academic credit. You may develop marketable skills as a result of pursuing your interests, volunteer opportunities, or engaging in campus activities.
You can then communicate your career-related experience to a prospective employer by way of your cover letter and resume. Perhaps you learned about this prospective employer through one of the connections you made as you pursued your career related experience.

IMOO you would be better off doing a 260 Remington. the mag wont need to be modifed and the 260 at least according to my books will out perfom the x55. I plan on rebarreling my Saiga in 260 remington.
with that being said there is no real reason not to be able to do a 6.5x55. the mags are going to be the big issue as well as if the mag will fit in front of the hammer. the trigger guard to clearance will be even less as well. off the top of my head I would just lengthen out a fal or m14 mag .230 as that is the differance in loaded length in my books. then the mag will have to be made to fit a Sagia some how much like conversion mags. as you know the 308 Sagia has the feed ramp built into the mag. that 1/4 inch of length will surely complicate things as far as the bolt being long enough and possable interferance of the center support.
the only up side to dong this round over the 260Rem is you have some brass, im pretty sure that 260 can be formed from 308 brass (i could be wrong). the 6.5x55 is well regarded as a very accurate round and in loaded to 308 pressures would likely out perform or at least equal the 260. How much brass do you have??

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Wonderful room.. Especially like the awesome light from your large windows
Judy in Phx, AZ
You must really feel like you are getting away from it all in this lovely room!
Great room, I wish I could keep mine as tidy as yours!
Hello everyone that commented… I'll try to answer questions from different posts. First, thank you for let me know that you enjoy seeing my sewing room. My goal was to share my solution because I spent the week looking on Internet for answer and being from the province of Québec the choice was limited. I looked into the Gidget II but there was no way for me to buy this here. Yes, I guess it is my nature to be neat!! In fact, it has to be neat for me to be able to sew!! The table top and the legs are from the VIKA collection. The table is very sturdy and it can hold up to 110 lb. Again at IKEA, I bought these big brown boxes (left of the shelf unit) to store my batting, my wool, my fabric and my tools. There is an identifier on the box so it is easy to find what I need. My stash is in the shelf unit itself. It's in the 2 green storage boxes on the bottom and I have two clear ones above that. It's true that having my desk face the window would give me great daylight but my daughter often comes and does her homework on the other desk so this way we can talk. While surfing the Net, I found Leah Day and she's the one that made me want a flatbed. I was very inspired by her recommendations and one of them was to put the desk against the wall to prevent the quilt from falling, something I will do when I'll be quilting. Thank you again.
Thanks for the info on the table. Enjoy your setup!
Great sewing room! I can see while you love it.
I think you may have solved my problem!
It looks like you have a substantial sewing machine.....are you getting no vibration or shaking from the table?
DH and I were going to go to Ikea yesterday to look at tables but got sidetracked. I will definatly go and look into Vika.
I am just drooling over your wonderful space. My husband and I are relocating to another state and I am looking forward to creating my new quilting studio.

Check class information carefully! You are responsible for the accuracy of scheduling your classes. If you make a mistake, it will most likely cost you money. Be very careful. Check and recheck your class information carefully before completing your registration. Plan your class schedule with a schedule worksheet. If you are considering dropping a class or withdrawing from school, please see dropping classes.
Paper copies of your registration activity are mailed only to those students who register for PCC classes using any mode other than MyPCC. Students using MyPCC to register are expected to access their schedules electronically through their MyPCC accounts.
The mailing of the paper copies, to students who did not use MyPCC to register, occurs only once each term, approximately 12 days before each term begins. If you are registering after that time period, you can either access your schedule electronically using MyPCC or, if you prefer, a paper copy can be mailed to you upon request at any campus Enrollment Services Office or by calling the Registration Helpline. This helpline is available Monday through Friday, 9am - 5pm.
Auditing of classes is considered on a case by case basis only with permission by the instructor teaching the course. The cost of auditing a course is the same as the cost for students not auditing the course. Refer to tuition and fees.
Attendance policy
You are expected to attend all classes in which you are enrolled. If you do not attend or stop attending classes and fail to personally drop within the refund period, you will be responsible for all tuition and fees.
Unless you have made prior arrangements with your instructor, you may be dropped from the class roster if you do not attend the first class session. However, faculty members are not required to drop students for nonattendance.
If you have excessive absences and fail to drop or withdraw from class by the deadlines, a grade of F may be assigned.
For drop deadlines and further information on dropping a class, see dropping classes.
You can only attend classes that you are officially registered into. You can't sit-in on a class without the proper registration for the course.
Late Registration/Registering after the first class meeting
All courses have a registration deadline. Some courses also may require permission for registration. The late registration period ends two business days after the course drop deadline. For full-term 8-12 week courses, you must register by the second Tuesday of the term. See more about when to register.
After the registration deadline, it may still be possible to add a course after the first meeting date. You must:
- request an online registration override from your instructor
- and register online using MyPCC by the registration deadline
Distance learning courses students will need to contact the department or instructor by phone or email to obtain the online override.
Cancelled and Rescheduled Classes
The classes offered in our schedule reflect our intentions when the schedule was planned. However, these offerings may be changed due to factors such as insufficient enrollment, personnel availability and budget requirements. We regret any inconvenience this might cause, and will do our best to help you adjust your schedule.
Many credit classes require prerequisites. Prerequisites are conditions that must be met in order to gain access to a particular class. These conditions are usually completion of, or enrollment in other courses, specific placement test scores or departmental approval.
If a course has a prerequisite, it will be listed with the course description. If you believe that you meet the prerequisite and you are not being allowed to enroll, contact your advisor. If you don't meet the prerequisites but wish to be considered, contact the department offering the class.

And just for those who may not be familiar, let me explain why. Antibiotics kill microbes wholesale within a hive. There are literally hundreds of species present and they compete with each other. Specifically, the one that causes chalkbrood competes with the one that causes AFB. Now they've all been severely wounded and the chances of AFB surfacing are now much greater than they would have been if you had left them alone.
You've stepped on the treadmill and selected the program. Better get off now or you're going to have to start walking.

Wingo, I think I'll PM you about drivers once I've finalized what I want to do with the lighting.
Also, since I won't be running these at full power, what do people suggest? 1/3 of the full power? Obviously I want to grow plants and not algae...
As for the moonlight/sunlight hours, keep the whites on with the blues for 8-12 hours, blue only on at night. You can keep the blue on all night if you want, or turn them off after a couple hours, up to you.

|I would also suggest less blue. Your tank is going to look like the deep ocean with that much blue, replace all the royal blues with cool white IMO. Keep the two center blue LEDs for moonlight and a little extra blue tint on the daylight cycle.
At full power, you are going to grow algae not plants without CO2 in this arrangement.
Your array will have enough spread, no need to add any more LEDs unless for the purpose fuller spectrum.
The color combo you will have is closer to reef settings than planted tank, are you sure you want that. Too much blue makes your planted tank looks weird.
I can hook you up with dimmable drivers for this kind of pico setups which I know, for fact, you will have a hard time finding them in the net yourself.
Parts you will need for something like what you want and I think will be more proper are as follows:
1 3x3W dimmable driver for 3 cool white
1 dimmer
1 3x3W dimmable driver for 3 royal blue
1 dimmer
1 power for both driver on a timer
(you can get one more timer to separate the blue and white turning on/off time)
2 moonlight modules
1 power supply for the moonlight on a timer
2 RS Bar fixture heatsink with splash guard
1 large DIY type heatsink at 4.25 inch depth, and length across your tank(you will have to device a splash guard yourself)
I can hook you up with all the parts if you cannot find them on your own.
Advice please - LED lighting for 10 g
I'm new to the forum - this is my first post, hopefully it's in the right spot.
I've kept fish-only tanks for years but I'd really love to switch my tanks from plastic plants to real plants.
Specifically, I have a 10-gallon in mind for my first planted tank. I'd like to do a DIY LED lighting set-up. Luckily, my boyfriend has experience playing with LEDs so all I really need to do is figure out what parts I need, and he can help me with the rest.
This is what I'm thinking of:
I'd like it to have moonlighting, and rapidLED sells a 2-LED moonlighting kit that I think might work here. The main tank lighting (XP-Gs and XP-Es) would be dimmable, since I want to keep this to the low-light/low-tech side of things, and I think the 3W Crees (from what I've read) are too bright if run to their full power. But I'm wondering, would 6 LEDs for the main light provide fairly even lighting, or should I add more to the array so that I don't have really dim spots in the tank?
Also, from what I've read, I don't think I need optics since this is just a 10-gallon tank. As for drivers, the kits I've seen seem to either use the Mean well ELN-60-48D or the ELN-60-48P so I think I'll go with that, but I'm not sure what the difference between them is.
I think I also read somewhere in this forum, that someone had the idea of hooking up the cool whites and royal blues to 2 different drivers, so that the lighting temperature can be fine-tuned to get the nicest colour display from the fish. Am I remembering that correctly? Would that be a good idea here, or is a 50-50 split between cool whites and royal blues already pretty decent for display lighting?
That's all I can think of to ask now, but if it seems like I might have overlooked something, please feel free to tell me that too!

Press Reviews: GIANT ROCK SPECTACLE AT THE ORTENAUHALLE
The English Pop Group Led Zeppelin filled the Ortenauhalle to bursting point - with a big squad of security and also many security measures.
Before one could enter the 'Led Zeppelin Rock Paradise' for 12.50 German marks at the Ortenauhalle one could collect some deep insights. There were guards with clubs, dogs barking and barbed wire. If this was alright or not by law, necessary or not, - at least these measures did not add to happy vibration for the concert goers. Approximately 10 - 12,000 rock and pop fans had found their way to Offenburg which this evening turned into the south-west German rock mecca. The reason: the rare Led Zeppelin.
Around 7:15pm there was already an enormous crowd of people assembled waiting to get into Offenburg's noble hall. There was an unbelievable amount of pushing towards the ramp which leads to the Oberheinhalle which is the leading way to the Ortenauhalle. It was here that the railing was surrounded with barbed wire to prevent people climbing their car roofs to find a way into the hall for free.
After you passed numerous checkpoints you were standing in the Ortenauhalle where the floor was literally plastered by human beings. There was hardly any space to be found. Even the balcony which surrounds the floor had people standing in 3-4 rows to get a glimpse of Led Zeppelin who did not let the audience down and drove a crowd being lethargic at the beginning to a true storm of an ovation.
Rocks (sic) and Blues were the hits of the evening. Jimmy Page 'grinded' his guitar or he let his fingers jump in fast movement over the strings to hit the audience deep into the bone with his sometime bizarre guitar sounds. Robert Plant, the lead singer, with his powerful and brilliant voice did leave a deep impact in the rows of the listening fans. Drummer John Boham (sic) and the organ, piano and bass player John Paul Jones put a solid bottom to the sound which was the foundation for the hard and impressive Rock and Blue (sic) as well as for some extravaganzas by Jimmy Page and Robert Plant.
If one does not pay attention to the extenuating circumstances and forgets about the thick air, the security guards, the barbed wire, etc. and is only thinking about the music one can note that this was a giant rock spectacle and in its own right was a superb event.

Led Zeppelin has hit. This 'youngman' has himself inspired by the music and is dancing bare-chested in the audience.
Hanwaker's own impressions (as remembered on 7-30-06)
Yes it is all true what you read in the review. It was even worse in some cases as I was on that ramp to the hall which after the barbed wire stopped was covered on both sides by windowpanes of glass. At one point the pressure among the crowd got so strong that people burst through the windowpanes and fell down some 3-4 metres causing the ambulances to rush in to their rescue. Me being 15 at that time I had never experienced such a hassle before a show and I was quite shocked.
Once inside it was obvious that they sold more tickets than the auditorium regularly held. We were packed in like sardines. I did manage to find a space in the first third of the hall and had quite a good view during the complete show. I was very much impressed by the acoustic set and of course when the bow part in Dazed and Confused happened the light show was very impressive catching his bow arm stretched out in the ray of the light.
I was at that point not familiar that Whole Lotta Love is always presented as part of a medley and I was pretty much confused by all the songs they threw in there as I had never heard them playing this. As a result I was not very amused by this Whole Lotta Love medley but nowadays I appreciate it a lot more.
The sheer volume of the music caused my ears to ring for 3 days afterwards and I was not the only one.

The concert in Offenburg
Yes, I was there at the age of 13 when my small home-town had the privilege to host such a big act that has changed my perception of music forever and continues to rock me at the age of 50. However, and I have hardly ever seen it correctly spelled, the venue was (and still is) called ORTENAU-Halle, without the "h".

Science Score Gains Made on Nation's Report Card
Younger Students Show Highest Achievement Over Last Decade
The latest results on the Nation's Report Card show that students at the elementary school level have made remarkable progress in science compared to those in the upper grades.
The 2005 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) tested the science skills of a representative sample of more than 300,000 students in grades 4, 8 and 12. Released in May of this year by the U.S. Department of Education's National Center for Education Statistics, national findings since the previous assessments in 1996 and 2000 revealed:
- Fourth-grade students scored higher than in either previous year, and lower-performing students made the largest gains since 2000.
- Eighth-graders' overall performance remained unchanged from either previous year; gains by lower-income students narrowed the achievement gap since 2000.
- Scores for 12th-graders remained unchanged since the last assessment, but are lower than in 1996. However, the gap in achievement between black and white students has widened since 2000.
"These NAEP results provide further evidence that accountability and assessments are working to raise achievement levels, even in subjects not directly tested under the No Child Left Behind Act," said U.S. Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings. Furthermore, she added that the results prove the need to expand those accountability provisions more in the nation's high schools.
The report also presents state results for grades 4 and 8. Although most states showed no improvement in these grades, five of the 37 participating statesCalifornia, Hawaii, Kentucky, South Carolina and Virginiadid improve between 2000 and 2005 in both grades.
In addition, in grades 4 and 8, minority students showed improvement, with the average score for black students increasing by seven points, and for Hispanic students by 11 points since 2000. At grade 8, blacks were the only racial-ethnic group to show progress since 1996, and no racial-ethnic group showed improvement since 2000.

Technology School Introduces World Studies Program to Help Prepare Florida Students for New Global Era
Lee Academy of World Studies has taken its students on a trip around the worldwithout them ever having to leave their desks. With the help of the Internet and an array of high-tech gadgets, its children have discovered over the past year that the world is far bigger than their Tampa, Fla., neighborhood.
The 2005-06 school year was the first for the world studies curriculum. After more than a decade of serving as a technology magnet school, Lee broadened its K-5 program by globalizing the social studies curriculum and adding foreign language studies. "Downloading information about countries and studying them is so much easier than saying, 'Okay, let's talk about technology,'" explained Principal Mamie Buzzetti. "Now we have something to link it to."
In 1993, Lee became the first elementary magnet school in Hillsborough County to be a part of the district's diversity plan. At the time, remembers superintendent MaryEllen Elia, the idea of a technology school received a skeptical welcome. "Now when you look back, it's almost amazing to see how far we've come," she said.
After a while, however, many of the students who were making the nearly two-hour bus ride to Lee because of its technology were finding that they could receive computer instruction right in their neighborhood schools. That's when the staff realized they needed another draw for their magnet school population. Just as Lee's leadership thought a technology program would help to prepare students for a digital world, they also believed a world studies focus in an evolving global era would further strengthen students' academic preparation.
Such a program promises a more prosperous future for the children, especially at a school where approximately three-fourths of the students qualify for federally subsidized meals. "Parents want to find what's best for their children, and when they see all of our accomplishments and that every child can learn, they are convinced of the school's potential," said Buzzetti, who came to Lee in 1974 as a teacher.
For the past four years, Lee has achieved Florida's adequate yearly progress goals, with about 70 percent of its students meeting high standards in both reading and math last year. During this time span, the school has earned nothing short of a "B" grade based on the state's accountability system.
Buzzetti is also proud of the school's small class sizes of 20 students per teacher and of its diversity: roughly one-third are black; another one-third are Hispanic; and the remaining one-third are white, multiracial and Asian. Furthermore, considering the fact that Lee is an inner-city school (located one mile from downtown Tampa) whose population is made up of children from all over the district, these accomplishments are no small feat. Acclaims Elia, "Lee has a dedicated staff, from the custodian to the principal, who have done some incredibly innovative things with students."
It is this innovation that in 2005 earned Lee one of 20 Schools of Distinction awards from Intel Corporation and Scholastic out of a national pool of more than 3,000 participating schools. Within the same year, it also received a Blue Ribbon Lighthouse School Award from Blue Ribbon Schools of Excellence, Inc., in partnership with NASA. And this year, Lee won a Magnet School of Distinction Award from Magnet Schools of America. Buzzetti believes the stream of recognition is a credit to their hard work over the years to fine-tune the program: "We knew exactly where we were going and just basically reached where we needed to be."
In another pioneering project, Lee was the first in the district to set up the Spectrum Lab, which offers a hands-on approach to problem-solving by encouraging students to use scientific reasoning in various experiments that examine electricity, hydraulics, insects and the weather.
From the outside, few would guess this century-old, redbrick school building crowned with a monumental dome is the home of a multimedia enterprise. When Lee was converted to a technology school, the building constructed in 1906 by a grassroots team of laborers underwent an intensive retrofitting process, in which the ceiling, walls and hardwood floors were almost completely peeled back to accommodate new wiring and prepare for nearly 100 boxes of computer equipment.
Recently, thanks to the Intel and Scholastic award winnings worth $10,000 in cash and $500,000 in equipment, Lee expanded its electronic stock to include: laptop computers; digital projectors that beam classroom lessons in high definition; document cameras that magnify three-dimensional objects; interactive whiteboards that allow teachers to colorfully inscribe their notes on the projected images; and handheld instructional devices that allow students to learn at their own pace through multiple-choice interaction. In addition, an order of flat screen televisions is expected to arrive by the fall to help support Lee's video broadcasts.
"The grant was the best thing that could ever have happened because I've been dying for a projector, and I wanted my own laptop," said Devin Qureshi, who is in her fourth year of teaching. "It's made my job easier."
By integrating this technology into the curriculum, teachers are engaging students of all learning styles, from the visual to the auditory to the kinesthetic learners. "It's almost like the technology has become a pen or pencil," said Elia. "It's fascinating."
For example, in these digitally controlled classrooms, teachers can take their students on a virtual tour of Africa at the touch of a button. Students can watch exotic animals drinking from a watering hole in the desert via a live camera feed through National Geographic's Web site.
Also, in establishing a globally conscious learning environment, last year Lee implemented foreign language classes as a complement to its world studies program. Twice a week, students in every grade attend the foreign language lab to learn Spanish.
Although the community is predominantly Hispanic, Lee teaches the language with an emphasis on Latin and assigns native Spanish speakers more challenging activities.
For Angela Bowling, the language studies help children not only to better communicate with their Latino classmates but provide a practical link to higher learning. "I've used it to teach them math skills when we're talking about a quadrilateral," she said. "We talk about the Latin roots of the wordquadri, meaning 'four,' and later, meaning 'sides.' I show them how the language can help them in math, reading and writingand in what they're doing right now and in what they'll do in the future."

Spellings Gives Texas Tech Commencement Speech
In May, Secretary Spellings delivered the commencement address to the Texas Tech University class of 2006. Following is an excerpt of her remarks.
... Today, something very precious is coming to an end. You're saying goodbye to friends, thanking teachers who inspired you, thinking back on many fond memories and leaving a place that's been your home for four yearsmaybe a little longer for some of you.
But today, you're also starting out on a new beginning, an incredible journey, one that stretches further and wider than anything you've ever known. ... You're embarking on life, and it's very simply what you make it. ...
... To succeed you've got to have focus: the ability to see the big picture, the courage to dig in and persevere so that when life throws you a curve you don't get derailed. ...
Sometimes the road stretches straight ahead. Sometimes you're stuck in 5 o'clock traffic. Sometimes you're just trying to find the nearest exit.
And one thing you'll discover is that more often than not what at first appear to be roadblocks and setbacks are the very things that'll get you where you were meant to be.
So, as best you can, have fun, put on some good music ... and don't let anything or anyone narrow your dreams for the future. ...
Because the greatest obstacle in life isn't failure, it's fear. Fear keeps you on the sidelines playing it safe, convincing you risks are for daredevils and greatness is reserved for others. Yet, the reality is when you play it safe the only guarantee you get is that you'll live with regret. ...
Our fellow Texan, Lance Armstrong, has a saying inspired by his mom: "Pain is temporary, but quitting is forever." Anything worth anything takes some doing; it takes sacrifice. To seize life and live fully invites the potential for pain and disappointment. But that's the risk you take so that you can stand proud knowing you've lived and you've played, while countless others never got off the bench. ...
As I tell my [daughters], "If all you ever do is all you've ever done, then all you'll ever get is all you've ever got." ...
Take time to pause and make sure that you're living life and life isn't living you. Have a plan, but don't be afraid to improvise. Get off the beaten path. Explore the detours and back roads. Don't be in such a hurry to get where you're going that you miss some amazing scenery along the way. ...
... [But] no matter what you do in life, I want to encourage all of you to find some way to give back. The impact of that choice will not only improve the lives of others, it will enlarge and enrich yours as well. ...
Live your life so that when you look back on this day it will stand out not as an ending, but as the beginning of a wild ride, a great adventure, a life lived well and with purpose. ...

Around the Country
New York The New York City Department of Education is hoping its new housing support program will attract at least 100 newly hired math, science and special education teachers to some of its high-need middle and high schools by September. The program was negotiated with Mayor Michael Bloomberg's administration and the city's teachers union to address teacher shortages in these subject areas. Candidates must have a minimum of two years of classroom experience and pass a rigorous selection process. Eligible teachers will receive an initial payment of up to $5,000 for housing-related expenses along with a $400 monthly stipend for two years in exchange for a three-year commitment of service.
North Carolina This fall, a group of Mecklenburg County parents will begin a two-year training program to learn how to become activists for improving public education for all children. Through its Parent Leadership Network, the nonprofit organization Charlotte Advocates for Education trains parents to partner with schools to improve student achievement. Participants engage other parents in a variety of school initiatives, from helping Hispanic students learn to read to helping school leadership teams incorporate writing as a core subject. The program is supported by the Public Education Network and is modeled after a project by the Prichard Committee for Academic Excellence, a Kentucky-based advocacy group for school reform.

Q & A Glossary
What federal grants are available for college students?
To meet the growing need for improved math and science instruction, President George W. Bush recently signed into law two new grant programs for college students: the Academic Competitiveness Grant and the Science and Mathematics Access to Retain Talent (SMART) Grant. The president has budgeted $790 million for the 2006-07 academic year, and $4.5 billion over five years, to provide financial aid to college students who are: 1) eligible for federal Pell grants; 2) United States citizens; and 3) enrolled full-time.
Academic Competitiveness grants will be awarded to first- and second-year college students who have completed a rigorous secondary school program. Qualifying students would receive up to $750 for the first year of study and up to $1,300 for the second year. First-year students must not have been previously enrolled in a program of undergraduate education; second-year students must have had at least a cumulative 3.0 grade point average (GPA) during their first year of college. Based on information provided on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, potentially eligible students will be contacted by July 1.
For upper-level students, SMART grants of up to $4,000 will be awarded to third- and fourth-year college students who major in mathematics, science, technology, engineering or critical foreign languages at a four-year degree-granting institution. Students must have at least a cumulative 3.0 GPA in college.

News Show Looks Back on Spring Season
Education News Parents Can Use, the U.S. Department of Education's monthly television program, wrapped up the spring season with its June edition, "Child Health and Nutrition," which highlighted national and local programs that encourage children to eat right and exercise. The show also discussed nutrition guidelines from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's new food pyramid and featured a pilot program in Wisconsin that is spreading throughout the Appleton Area School District with the help of a physical education program grant from the Education Department.
Other editions of the monthly news show were: "Helping America's Youth: Engaging At-Risk Students," "Inspiring Excellence: Great Teachers, Great Principals," and "New Tools for Parents: Getting Informed and Getting Involved."
The March edition focused on a youth development initiative led by first lady Laura Bush and similar programs nationwide that are providing at-risk youths with the tools, community support and role models necessary for them to grow into healthy, productive adults.
In April, the focus shifted to another topic of particular interest to America's families. The show examined how excellence in teaching is at the core of the nation's long-term competitiveness, with a videotaped story of IBM's Transition to Teaching program and conversations with the 2006 National Association of Secondary School Principals of the Year.
May's show highlighted best practices of school choice in California and Florida and a compelling story of a grandmother-activist from Washington, D.C., whose nephew is benefiting from the D.C. Opportunity Scholarship Program.
Each month, Education News Parents Can Use showcases: schools and school districts from across the country; conversations with school officials, parents and education experts; and advice and free resources for parents and educators.

If the list is from your cart, I don't see bottom board, inner cover (if using) and top cover (either migratory or telescoping). What are you using for hive stand? I use concrete blocks, others make special stands.
I agree with the other posters with sticking with one size boxes for brood and supers. Keep in mind the frame size of the nucs you're ordering the brood boxes. Personally, I would get at least a jacket until you get comfortable with bees. I also use regular leather work gloves.
I am not sure if you get a cardboard nuc or a wood box. I would keep 1 extra hive setup (nuc) in case you end up with a swarm.

Hehe, he's a whacky guy, but he's OUR whacky guy.
I'd love to visit his place some day
I downloaded the app, it has links to all of the NRA info sites, & a target shooting game, even has skeet.
Not too bad.
I SAW THIS HE IS NOT MY FAVORITE GUY BUT I THINK HE DID A GOOD JOB ON THIS . I NEED THE NRA SHOOTNG APP. AN NOW WERE NOT SUSPOED TO DO ANY THING GUN RELATED ON SANDY HOOK ANIVERSORYS ????wtf HEY MEDAI THE SOONER YOU LET THINGS GO BACK TO NORMAL THE SOONER NUTS WILL STOP LETTING YOU BE THE LITTEL VOICE IN THERE HEADS.There are many Americans that feel that the country is being held hostage by the NRA and other lobbies. What's your response to that?
My response is one of dismay that anyone could possibly come to that absurd conclusion, when in fact the runaway abuse of power and corruption and criminal refusal to be accountable by the current U.S. government, facilitated and exacerbated by the dishonesty of the majority of the media, is the real threat to this unique experiment in self-government. The NRA is simply "We the People," undeniably the world's largest and most powerful family grass roots organization, dedicated to the Second Amendment and our self-evident natural right to self-defense.
How does instituting mandatory background checks and registration for all gun owners infringe on your second amendment rights?
One would have to live under a giant boulder of denial to pretend registration has not and will not lead to confiscation. Whoever asked this question must be dangerously ignorant of history.
NRA executive vice president Wayne LaPierre recently held a press conference, urging that we put an armed cop or security guard in every school in America. Where are we supposed to find the billions of dollars it supposedly would cost to fund that kind of initiative?
Any sane and caring person would agree that our children deserve at the very least the same protection as our money, elected officials, government buildings and the same armed security that the schools already have where the president's children attend. Another glaring example of hypocrisy. No president in the history of America has spent so irresponsibly and unaccountably as President Obama. He is showing his true Cloward-Piven colors by spending insanely then blaming others, as usual, for not paying for such waste, fraud and corruption. But a small percentage of the waste, fraud and corruption Obama is guilty of would more than pay for school security across the land. You know it and he knows it.
There is a new shooting-range app for the iPhone and iPad branded as an "Official NRA Licensed Product." It is approved for ages 4 and up. It was also released on the one month anniversary of the Sandy Hook shootings. Any comment on that?
I am not familiar with it, but the more than 100 million lawful gun enthusiasts of America know full well that the discipline of the shooting sports is a prime benefit for a young person's guidance, upbringing and overall education. If my friends at the NRA have produced such educational technology, I fully support it.
What's the biggest misconception people have about Ted Nugent?
I am not aware of any misconceptions about me, but surely the hate, vitriol and vicious lies about me in the media simply feed the soullessness of those who already don't want to know the truth about me. So be it. There have always been small-minded fools, and no one is surprised by the increasing class warfare metastasizing at the behest of the leftist media and the government goons who encourage and facilitate it. I am embraced and supported by the best people in the world who know and actually care about the truth. Drive safely.
Ted Nugent regularly hosts hunts for sick and terminally ill children with Hunt of a Lifetime, Hunt for a Cure, and via his own Kamp for Kids. Nugent has also founded the Freedom's Angels Foundation, which benefits American soldiers.
Hehe, he's a whacky guy, but he's OUR whacky guy.
I'd love to visit his place some day
I downloaded the app, it has links to all of the NRA info sites, & a target shooting game, even has skeet.
Not too bad.
I know Ted isn't everybody's cup of tea, but I personally like him. Yes he can be over the top sometimes, but that's partly because he has an extremely high IQ, and I'm sure has some form of ADD. I would've said "suffers from", but I rather think he enjoys it. LOL. Love him or hate him, you don't want to debate him. He excells at that, and routinely makes liberal interviewers look stupid.
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
I've got to like him. He's not afraid to tell you like it is! Just wish we had some more voices like his speaking up. I've always liked his line about concealed carry. Something to the effect that the Second Amendment IS his permit and he doesn't need someone else's permission to carry a weapon.
The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil interference- they deserve a place of honor with all that is good. George Washington
"A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government."
George Washington
I think he is a little "Too Much" at times. Other than that he is who he is and it is his personality that gets him the opportunity to get out there and speak for the rest of us.
"What country can preserve its liberties if its rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance?" -Thomas Jefferson-
"Our rights come from our humanity and may not be legislated away -- not by a vote of Congress, not by the consensus of our neighbors, not even by agreement of all Americans but one." Judge Andrew P. Napolitano
He did good on the interview. For me, I'm a fan of Uncle Ted - like his music. Heck I even quote him in my signature line.
"To show you how radical I am, I want carjackers dead. I want rapists dead. I want burglars dead. I want child molesters dead. I want the bad guys dead. No court case. No parole. No early release. I want 'em dead. Get a gun and when they attack you, shoot 'em."
Ted Nugent - speaking at the NRA convention April 17, 2005
I've met Uncle Ted and attended a few of his concerts in Saginaw, MI. He autographed some of my coyote pelts at a local DARE concert. I'm glad he's on the NRA Board of Directors.

Any Local Midsummer Events Upcoming?
Original post made by SpouseofSwede, Stanford, on Jun 10, 2013
a resident of Another Palo Alto neighborhood
on Jun 10, 2013 at 6:40 pm
Midsummer is a term rarely, if ever used, here. More often it is called the Summer Solstice or the First Day of Summer.
Midsummer's Day would be mid August in American terms.
a resident of Stanford
on Jun 10, 2013 at 6:47 pm
Yes, thank you, Resident. As an American, I'm well aware of the terminology we use for the first day of summer. Scandinavians and many others around the world refer to it as Midsummer, which is why I did, because we're looking for events of that name in the area. Thanks for your help - will keep looking.
a resident of Another Palo Alto neighborhood
on Jun 10, 2013 at 7:52 pm
I am sorry, I misunderstood your request.
I am quite familiar with Midsummer's Day, apart from Shakespeare, it is celebrated at many places - the one that always comes to mind for me is Stonehenge!
I hope you are able to find a celebration.

That said, I grew to not like the guy. It may sound strange after the praise I heaped on him. He was a mercenary for the front office to deal with. He never let his contract settle in. Worse, he did it all publicly through the media. It was like dealing with a current day WR or CB diva. He constantly talked about retiring and or leaving the Giants. He let Bellicheat get away to strengthen his negotiating position with us, then left us holding the bag with Ray Handley. I would never use the word class with Parcells as I obviously would with Coughlin. I wouldn't hire him (even in his prime) as my coach knowing what I know about his restless heart. I'm not a big fan of drama in the locker room especially coming from a coach.
Still his body of work is large and should land him in the HOF soon. I'm guessing it happens this year.


text: So evidently Wayne Coyne thinks Ke$ha is the new Iggy Pop. Or at least he went out of his way to make the Flaming Lips/Ke$ha collaboration, "2012," a very noticeable homage to the Stooges' infamous "1969." We understand if you think we're kidding, or, alternately, if you have no idea who Iggy Pop or the Stooges are.
