Greetings, all,
My most recent beekeepers' assoc. newsletter had a notice that several beekeepers in my general area (north- and southcentral Kansas) had a total of 21 hives stolen from two locations.
I'm curious if anyone knows what happens to these stolen hives. The owners and the newsletter editor seem to think the hives are in the general area. I'm wondering if stolen hives are more likely to end up in another part of the US (in our case, Texas) for pollination needs.
I ask because I see want ads in the bee magazines this time of year placed by orchards needing 500 or 1000 hives for pollination. I just remember that several years ago, a police force in a nearby town began using bicycles on a limited scale. The first week out, one of the bikes was stolen. Within three days, it was recovered in San Diego! Halfway across the country! Who would think you could get profit from stealing bicycles in Kansas and shipping them to California? If so, seems like stealing 5 hives here and 15 there would be easy money for someone.
Any ideas? Thanks.

I read the posting of JLS mom of 2, above, removed. I wonder why? I will deeply appreciate the opportunity understand the rationale guiding the removal - that would spare the time the commenter is taking to post. Eileen 1 asked several times as well, in various situations. Seems to me that the only info that should not be allowed posted is personal info about individuals, especially kids.
I wonder if these are liability issues? Is it possible that the owner of this board is responsible as to the facts posted here? If so, is there a way to create an open board? I would, if I could.
And yes - it is off topic of the thread. sorry.
Thank you CAC parent for letting all who read these threads know about this event! Thank you for organizing!

This whole bullying issue is overblown. Yes, there is bullying in every public school, but hardly in PAUSD. There are a few squeaky wheels who are sending everyone into a tizzy. [Portion removed by Palo Alto Online staff.] I have two children and we have experienced bullying at Jordan and Duveneck, but the administrations gladly worked with us and we had immediate results without having to threaten them with lawsuits. We politely spoke with the principals and the bullying ended immediately. Jordan administration is constantly sending anti-bullying messages to the students.
[Portion removed.] The Jordan campus is large enough for children to stay apart from each other; if it's a real issue, the Jordan administration will allow schedule adjustments.
If a parent thinks a school can stop girls from making hostile comments or negative facial expressions, the parent is expecting too much. How can anyone possibly stop such antics?
Girls Middle School is located near Jordan and Stratford is next door for those who prefer to send their children elsewhere.

Reviews of this property
Amazing stay! Kenny is the best host ever-he cared so much about everything-always asking if everything was ok-provided us with a subway map etc.
The apt is super clean and tastefully furnished. We felt so home in our room, in the entire house, where you can enjoy the roof with skyline view and hang out with cool people or you go to the gym or sauna or swim, if you just wanna relax and not go downtown Manhattan. This takes you just half an our by subway, which is 2 minutes around the corner. Grocery too. To summarize: it was an absolutely fantastic stay-thank you Kenny for everything. If we come back, then definitly to you. All the best Nicole&Grace
Everything was great. Kenny is very nice, the apartment is very lovely, Kenny should work as an interior designer. It is 5 minutes to a subway station, your are in 20 minutes at union square, there is a supermarket 5 blocks away. Definitely would come back again.
I had a very pleasant stay at Kenny´s.
The appartement is clean and the bed is comfortable. The location is well located, close to the next Subway. You only need approx. 20 minutes to Manhattan. It is a safe neighborhood.
Kenny always was available when you needed him and always responded fast and helpful. He is very friendly and cared much about me while I stayed in NYC.
We had a very pleasant stay with Kenny.
Appartement is very clean and the beds were great.
Kenny was available when you needed Him and allways responded fast, also checking if everything was fine.,even when we arrived home after the trip.
That was very Nice.
Kenny is super friendly and we had such fun with him. He cared so much about us while we stayed with him and even when we were downtown.
The flat was clean and the bed was really comfortable.
There is also a billard room, sauna, pool and a whirlpool to use for free.
The location is also good; you need 20 min to union square and the subway station is just a short walk from Kenny's flat.
It is a quiet and save district.
It was an amazing time in NYC! Thank u so much for hosting us it was a big pleasure to meet you! We really appreciate that.
Es war ein fantastischer Aufenthalt in New York. Kenny ist ein großartiger Gastgeber und wahnsinnig darum bemüht, dass sich seine Gäste wie zu Hause fühlen. Die Wohnung ist sehr sauber und schön eingerichtet. Das Apartmenthaus bietet darüberhinaus weitere Annehmlichkeiten wie eine super ausgestattete Dachterasse mit Blick auf die Skyline von Manhattan. Die Fahrt mit der U-Bahn nach Manhattan dauert nur ca. 25 Minuten. Supermarkt und Restaurants befinden sich in in fußläufiger Umgebung. Thanks again Kenny.
Reviews for this host's other properties
When we arrived we found everything we needed to be there (shampoo, soap, toilet paper, a filled fridge,...).
The flat is very comfortable and the pool, gym and sauna area gives the opportunity to relax from the straining sightseeing :) We particularly loved the roof terrace and its amazing view on the Manhattan skyline.
The next subway station is only 5 min walk away and it takes about 25 min to reach union square in Manhattan.
Furthermore the nearby environment has to offer many bars and a big supermarket.
Kenny is a obliging and generous host, he helped us with advice via whatsapp throughout our whole stay. Even though we were a group of 8, we were provided with a sufficient number of keys.
All in all we had a great time in NYC.
We are two families of ten people who stayed at Kenny's flat and it was fantastic . Kenny was always available for any questions and he kept in contact during all our stay to make sure that everything was ok . The flat is very nice , very clean and close to the subway . If we come back to New York we will certainly go to Kenny's.
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.

New Zealand's great outdoors is populated by plants which can cause harm if eaten, leading to a stinging mouth, sore stomachs, vomiting, itchy and painful skin or more serious poisoning.
The National Poisons Centre has analysed more than 11,000 inquiries it received after people came into contact with or ate poisonous plants and fungi.
Many of the most commonly inquired-about plants - such as kowhai and arum lily - cause only mild symptoms such as an upset stomach or burning mouth.
But a handful, including foxglove and oleander, require immediate medical treatment if eaten.
Dr Leo Schep, a toxicologist at the poisons centre, said calls were mostly made after young children ate plants.
Parents should learn the plants in their garden or neighbourhood, he said, and avoid or get rid of potentially poisonous ones.
The bright yellow of daffodils - which contain toxic alkaloids - were too appealing for 56 children and 28 adults, the centre's records for 2003-2010 show.
The flower itself would cause only vomiting, but eating the bulb would require a hospital visit, Dr Schep said.
"Also, surprisingly, people drink the water that the plants have been in. Kids will do anything."
Black nightshade was the most common poisonous plant inquiry, with 834 calls - 90 per cent of which related to children.
The green, unripe berries of the common weed contain toxic alkaloids and can be mistaken for peas.
Dr Schep said the plant was not to be mistaken for similarly named deadly nightshade, which is extremely rare in New Zealand.
Because the green berries were low in toxicity, a 12kg 2-year-old would need to eat about 36 before there was any need for concern, he said.
Arum lily caused a stinging of the mouth if eaten, but not serious poisoning. Kowhai was not a concern because the toxic seeds were encased in a hard shell: "You swallow it and it just goes straight through your system."
The fourth most-common plant inquiry was about euphorbia or "spurge" - herbs or shrubs which have a highly irritating white, latex-like sap.
More than 100 calls to the centre were about eye exposure to the sap, which if left untreated can result in blindness.
Ongaonga, or New Zealand tree nettle, which can grow to 2m high, causes intense pain with itching after contact with skin. Dogs have died after exposure.
Dr Schep flagged karaka, foxglove, hemlock and oleander as the most dangerous plants, particularly for toddlers.
Foxglove and oleander contain a toxin which can bring on serious cardiac issues, and can be treated with charcoal.
"If you've got kids and you've got an oleander tree in your property, it may be worth getting it bowled. And foxglove - get rid of it," Dr Schep advised.
The native karaka evergreen tree contains a toxin karakin which is most concentrated in its kernels. Dr Schep said small amounts of human ingestion were unlikely to cause serious poisoning, but dogs had died after eating the kernels.

That person requested anonymity because the Giants have not yet announced the move. Wells will fill the spot vacated by Matt Rhule, who left to become Temple's head coach. With Al Holcomb departing for the Panthers last week, the Giants have openings at both offensive and defensive assistant (similar to quality control jobs)."

Hi everyone, I picked up my first nuc at the end of June. Then my local beekeeping association went on holiday! They don't meet again until the last week of September, so I'm hoping the forums will bee a good source of info. Only have 1 hive.
My question is this: under what circumstances would the bees be walking around on the ground around the hive? There's a bunch of branches on the ground about 4 ft from the hive (I'm urban, not a tonne of space), and a handful of bees are crawling over them. I sort of blew on them and shook the leaves to disturb them, but they still continued walking rather than taking off. What is going on?
Their bee line is heading more or less straight up over this pile.

maybe the milk is thinning the stock down to much. Try adding the milk with the stock and thicken with the flour and water. I think of Chicken and Noodles as a thin and Chicken and Dumplings (biscuits) as thicker.
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
maybe the milk is thinning the stock down to much. Try adding the milk with the stock and thicken with the flour and water. I think of Chicken and Noodles as a thin and Chicken and Dumplings (biscuits) as thicker.
Try this, make a roux with just butter and flour, make sure there are no lumps and it should be smooth. slowly add your stock so that you won't get flour lumps, let that thicken, then add your milk, again slowly. whisking/stiring the whole time. If your gravy still isn't the texture you want make a cornstarch slurry, its just cornstarch and water. Add that a little at a time and that should thicken it. A slurry doesn't have exact measurements, its just put cornstarch in a bowl and water till its dissolved, it doesn't take a whole lot of water.... hope this helps...
Like some that have posted I always start with a roux, but have never used cornstarch as a roux but regular white flour.
The more that you brown your roux it lessens the thickening power howver...learned that from Emeril Lagase. I dont brown my roux but cook for 1 full minute to remove raw taste.
When I make my cream soups Iuse stock, to make the gravy but finish off with half and half or full on heavy cream. Have used plain milk in a pinch.
Thanks for the hint on rice flour...i'll give that a try.
Make a roux with just butter (or drippings) and flour. No cornstarch. Cook until the desired color. Then add milk for cream gravy or broth to add to soups and stews. Shouldn't break down at all. Mine never does.
Try not using any cornstarch - it doesn't hold the thicken agent I have found I stick just with flour.
A bed without a quilt is like the night sky without stars.
I would not add flour AND cornstarch. Old-fashioned gravy is made with flour. As some have described, add some flour to the fat left in the pan, brown it, then slowly add water while whisking. I prefer to use watered down cream for that step.
If you choose to use cornstarch, as I do - because I am gluten intolerant, as someone mentioned, mix the cornstarch with COLD water, then whisk it into your broth. Bring it to a boil until it thickens.
Either way, if you cook it too long, or on high temp., the fat will separate from the broth and you'll have
a watery mess.
My DH can't have Gluten. So I make all gravy out of either rice flour or potato flour. Works great for me. Never have a problem with it staying thick.
I've had that happen with cornstarch, but never with flour. You can also use Arrowroot.
I use cornstarch and water. Thicken it till it's like a paste and add.

text: If you rubber band the comb honey to a frame, will the bees reattach it. Remember we are in SE TX, still in high to mid 70s at night, goldern rod and other stuff is just thinking of blooming, so we should have at least a couple weeks of good flow. The commercial guys are just starting to show up with boxes they are going to overwinter here.


text: Yesterday, the high temperature here was 46 degrees and it was windy. My wife let me know that the apiary inspector had showed up. From his notes I see that there were no problems whatsoever and strong numbers in both of my two hives. While I'm pleased with the information from someone with much more expertise than myself, I'm surprised/concerned about having had my hives opened up given the weather conditions. I wasn't there to see what exactly was done. For those of you with more experience, would this concern you? I'm especially curious about any problems that might arise from chilled brood. What should I look for if I get a good day, and within what time frame?

Inside Pitch: Playboy.com's 2012 Baseball Preview Part IV
With the first pitch already thrown in Japan we wrap up our baseball preview with the 2012 contenders
The first pitch was thrown in Japan earlier this morning which means baseball is officially back. We wrap up our team-by-team preview with a look at the teams who can contend in 2012.
Boston Red Sox
How do you solve a problem like the Red Sox? Step one: clean house. They fired their coach, their GM and shipped their shortstop options out of town. Step two: hire a hard ass who loves media swarms. Step three: fill up on so many sub-par pitchers it would be impossible to wash out down the stretch. Despite spring cleaning, the Sox are still faced with a 'forest through the trees' type scenario; no shortstop, shoddy right fielding and a few question marks as far as bounce back years go (Youkilis, Crawford, Bucholz). But they boast one of the better lineups, an experienced pitching staff and some new faces in the pen. Being mindful of where their weaknesses are could be their biggest strength.
Best Asset: A one-through-four that can hit. Look out for: SP Clay Bucholz. Strategy: They need Carl Crawford to return to 2008-2010 form. With some of the pressure off after last year's implosion this team should be able to get back to playing baseball instead of playing video games. Projected Finish: 1st in the AL East.
Detroit Tigers
This offseason was a homecoming of sorts for the Fielder family in Detroit; Cecil spent seven years mashing for the Motor City and now his son Prince joins the ranks. His 230 career homeruns will be backed by Miguel Cabrera with an 80-90 homer season not out of the question for the tandem. Getting guys on base might be a problem in Detroit, but with the rotation the way it is, anchored by Triple Crown winner Justin Verlander, the Tigers should be able to win on their all-stars alone.
Best Asset: A toss up, either the 1-2 Fielder/Cabrera punch or Justin Verlander. Look out for: C Alex Avila. Strategy: Given the state of the AL Central the Tigers with all their talent could compete at 80 per cent and still win the division handily. They should have no trouble staying on top. Projected Finish: 1st in the Al Central.
Los Angeles Angels
So the Angels added C.J Wilson to a rotation that featured two of the MLB's best in 2011, Jered Weaver and Dan Haren. They've also got Ervin Santana so let's say the rotation is set for a base of at least 55-60 wins. They also brought in the offseason's biggest prize in Albert Pujols, an all-natural pull hitter and one the best in the game. They've got a ton of guys who can get on-base so the runs should just roll in. One question though: which one of their underperforming corner outfielders will protect him at the plate? Why not just walk Pujols 300 times this season?
Best Asset: 1B Albert Pujols. Look out for: 1B Albert Pujols (career year with all those guys to bat around). Strategy: The Angels have prided themselves on a balanced team for a while but this edition is not only balanced, its chalk full of talent. The Angels will have no trouble keeping up with the Rangers offensively but we're willing to wager Haren and Weaver cannot replicate last year's success. Projected Finish: 2nd in the AL West.
New York Yankees
Undoubtedly the elder statesman of the baseball world, the Bombers are old in all the right ways. Only a handful of their position players are under thirty and the ones who aren't are household names. Jeter, Rodriguez, Teixeira, Granderson and Swisher can still play baseball at an elite level. Beyond that, they've shed some of the dead weight holding them down, retooled their bench and somewhat sorted out their rotation troubles. They won the uber-competitive East last year and that team is still in place in 2012.
Best Asset: Experience. Look out for: SP Ivan Nova. Strategy: The core of this team hasn't changed for a while and why would it? They're winning. That said, last years' divisional title was more about another team falling apart than them playing exceptional baseball. The AL East is a beast; the Yankees can't afford to lose a few steps now. Projected Finish: 3rd in the AL East.
Philadelphia Phillies
Even in the absence of Roy Oswalt, the Phillies have one of, if not the best, rotation in baseball; last year their big three combined for 50 wins, a 2.51 ERA, and 17 complete games. The best opposing teams can hope for is that they only have to see one of them in a series, but their four and five guys —Vance Worley and Joe Blanton—are nothing to shake a stick at either. The Phillies problem this year will be staying healthy long enough to contend; Chase Utley already looks like he's on the shelf for the season and Ryan Howard won't report until May. The left side of their infield is even older so the weight may very well be on the rotation this time around.
Best Asset: SP Roy Halladay, Cole Hamels and Cliff Lee. Look out for: SP Vance Worley. Strategy: It's already been implemented; knowing that injury risk loomed, the Phils brought in a handful of veteran reserve players as stop gap solutions. They won't put up the numbers their starters would, but they will be able to keep them in games. Their pitching staff can do the rest. Projected Finish: 1st in the NL East.
Texas Rangers
Two trips to the World Series and nothing to show for it. The Rangers have hands down the best lineup in baseball; when it works it's a well-oiled machine that could hit for days, but a missing piece can throw off the cycle and guys like Hamilton, Kinsler and Beltre are not without a history of injury. The Rangers are hoping the addition of Yu Darvish will supplement the loss of C.J. Wilson in a young rotation that could stand some seasoning. Still, runs won't be at a premium; pitching mistakes can be made and the Rangers can still win.
Best Asset: A lineup that can hit for power and average at every position. Look out for: SP Derek Holland. Strategy: They could use a veteran workhorse in the rotation to help lighten the load, but they should be poised to make yet another run for the title. Projected Finish: 1st NL West.

It's when a guy is banging someone in the butthole, they cum inside, then yank their cock out really fast, causing the butthole to pop out. After this, you milk the exposed butthole into a cup and make the other person drink it.
Susie ate tacos the other day..... when I gave her the butt cow, she threw up olives and lettuce everywhere, so I said "bitch, clean this shit!" I haven't given her the butt cow ever since

Hello Everyone,
I found a swarm the day after I installed a package of bees. The swarm was about the same size as the package.
At first the swarm was really active and started bring back pollen right away. I tried to feed them at first but they would not take it.
Now, one month later the swarm has about 1/4 the activity as the package.
Everything looks OK inside the hive, but they are building more slowly then the package.
What can I do to help these bees?
I checked the swarm for mites and found 10 Varroa mites on the board in a 24 hour period.
Is this too many?
Any comments are welcome.
Many Thanks!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
Quick-Tip Q & A
A:[[ I'm writing a few specialized MPI functions for eventual distribution [[ as a small library. How can I keep the underlying MPI sends/recvs [[ from conflicting with MPI calls elsewhere in the calling program? [[ Any other gotchas to worry about? [[ [[ I'd appreciate it if you could just point me in the right [[ direction... # # Many thanks to our two respondents: # # # From John B. Pormann # I think the quickest approach is to have the calling subroutine include an initial communicator, then use MPI_Comm_dup to duplicate it: int foo( MPI_Comm initcom, int arg1, int arg2 ) { MPI_Comm newcomm; int ierr; /* dup the communicator so we isolate */ /* all library messages */ ierr = MPI_Comm_dup( initcomm, &newcomm ); if( ierr < 0 ) { return( ierr ); } /* now use newcomm as your communicator */ /* MPI_Isend( ..., newcomm, &sendreq ); */ /* MPI_Recv( ..., newcomm, &mpistat ); */ /* now free it up, since MPI_Comm's are */ /* a 'valuable commodity' */ ierr = MPI_Comm_free( &newcomm ); if( ierr < 0 ) { return( ierr ); }; return( 0 ); } You could just do a MPI_Comm_dup of MPI_COMM_WORLD, but that would assume that your library must *always* be called by all tasks. By using an initial communicator argument, you could allow the user to have only half the nodes call your library -- assuming they set up the proper MPI_Group and MPI_Comm objects (note that you don't need to pass the MPI_Group as an argument, since you can always get it from MPI_Comm_group function). # # From Brad Chamberlain # I believe that the right direction is to create your own communicators so that when performing communication you can use a reference to your own communicator structure rather than MPI_COMM_WORLD. This should keep your messages from being "in their own world" and prevent them from conflicting with other MPI messages being sent around. # # Editor's note: # # Be aware that duplicating communicators can be expensive, as it # entails some checking in between the processors involved. # # This is not to discourage you from creating your own libraries. # # On the contrary! If you create any MPI add-ons or libraries, we'd be # disappointed if you didn't tell us about it. # Q: I'm having trouble linking my C program on the T3E. It uses Cray FFT libraries which, in turn, use BLACS grid routines. I've tried linking with libsci, but it still can't find BLACS_GRIDINIT. The Fortran compiling system seems to take care of this by magic. How can I get my C program to work?

What is specialty insurance?
The insurance industry has lots of little secrets. They don't intend them to be secrets, but it can be a complicated business and there are policies and coverage that most people have never heard of. Such as specialty insurance.
Some people have never heard of specialty insurance. Maybe you are one of them. It's another one of those esoteric terms that most are unfamiliar with. But it's way more common than you think. Here are a few examples.
Do you have a coin collection that you started as a child and is now quite extensive and expensive?
Have you bought a fleet of all-terrain vehicles for your kids to use on vacation?
Do you have a boat? A few personal watercraft? A motorcycle?
Those can be considered special or unique.
What about a valuable art collection? or antiques? How many times have you watched Antiques Roadshow and heard the appraiser give "insurance value?" All the time, right? In all probability, when the owner got home and contacted their insurance company they were told that they need some form of specialty insurance.
Specialty insurance is just what it sounds like—insurance for items that are unique in some way and that are not covered under your standard homeowners insurance policy.
When a specialty item—whether it's a family heirloom, a vacation memento or just something you love—is lost or damaged, it can be very emotional. If it's not insured, you have no recourse at all for repair or replacement. That's why it's important to talk to your agent about anything special or unique in your home. Or in the garage.
Here's what's critical to understand. While everyone is looking for low-cost homeowners insurance quotes in Pennsylvania, those quotes may not include these special and unique items. They may be some of the most important of your possessions and that's why you'll want to protect them with specialty coverage.
If you haven't made a list of the possessions that mean the most to you, sit down and do it now. Chances are that among them are a few specialty items that will require special coverage. They're often things we don't even think of. But now's the time to start thinking of them and making sure they are insured and you are protected from their loss.

Shrinking High-School Graduate Ranks Bear on College Recruiting
The number of U.S. high-school graduates is expected to decline through the rest of the decade, with the largest drop in non-hispanic whites, raising questions about how colleges will recruit and enroll students.
After two decades of growth, the number of high-school graduates probably peaked at 3.4 million in the 2010-2011 school year, according to projections released today by the Western Interstate Commission on Higher Education, a nonprofit research group in Boulder, Colorado.
In the next decade, the Midwest and Northeast can expect the biggest decrease in graduates, while the South and West are most likely to see growth, particularly in hispanic students. Colleges will need to develop strategies on how to fill classes as they deal with smaller populations, and families weigh the value of college with costs as student borrowers graduate with record-high debt levels. Some private schools charge more than $60,000 a year.
"Schools can no longer choose from ever-growing pools of potential applicants," Brian Prescott, the study's principal author, said in an interview. "The whole environment of admissions and enrollment management is shifting in fundamental ways, with schools facing even tougher decisions about how to recruit, where to recruit and how to keep the students that they recruit enrolled."
The next period of high-school student growth won't begin until 2020 and will continue to the 2026-2027 school year, according to the report.
Hispanic Students
The study projects that between the 2008-2009 and 2019-2020 school years, the number of hispanic high-school graduates will increase 41 percent, or almost 200,000, while Asian/Pacific Islander graduates will rise 30 percent, or almost 50,000.
The number of white non-hispanic students will decline 12 percent, or about 228,000, and black graduates will decrease 41,000, or 9 percent.
The study, published about every five years, analyzed federal birth data from the National Center for Health Statistics. The authors developed ratios of students born in a given year who go to first grade about six years later and then performed the same analysis for subsequent years to determine projections, Prescott said.

Introduction to Tournaments
Tournaments were extreme sporting events that were often organised to show royal or noble power. Like modern elite sports events, many tournaments were lavish displays that brought together competitors and spectators from far and wide.
Some tournament contests were fought on horseback, others on foot, but all needed strength, skill and bravery. Tournament competitors also needed expensive equipment, often wearing armour carefully designed to reduce risk of injury or death. Later tournament armour was also beautifully decorated. Like present-day sports kit, it often combined the latest technology with style and fashion.
Tournaments through time
Tournaments probably began in the 11th century as mock battles between two opposing teams and provided good training for war.
At first they used weapons and wore protective armour that were the same as they used in battle. Gradually special armour was created for the different tournament events, in response to the particular threats of the lance, sword and axe.
Like some sports armour today, improvements to safety were constantly made and fashions changed so that champions looked good as well as stayed safe.
Tournaments became spectator events, often with lavish costumes and prizes. As a colourful and dangerous spectacle the tournament lasted 600 years.

1st DE Bjoern Werner (FSU) Guy is a top 10 talents that has fallen due to poor combines despite his great seasons/careers and game film. IF he falls to 19 (which it appears he may will) then he would be a steal and get the GMen DE pass rush back up to tops in the league. Tuck, JPP, Kiwi, Werner looks a lot better than Tuck, JPP, OSI.
2nd David Amerson (NCS) At 61 205 lbs he has prototype size to go along with elite 4.35 speed. Has Great ball skills. Personally I think he should be a 1st rounder but is projected 2-3. His stock slid this year due to his INTs going from 13, in 2011, to 5, in 2012. I feel this was more due to his opponents not targeting his way nearly as much. He did get beat a few times this year but that happens. If he makes it to the GMEN in the second its a great pick.
3rd OLB Sio Moore (UConn) my personal favorite LB in the draft. 61, 245lbs, 4.65 40yrd dash, 29 reps @225, 38 Vertical, 1007 Broad jump. Absolute Freak Athlete! Can cover TEs and RBs as well as rush the passer. Solid tackler, doesnt get out of position in space. Better LB than any we have on our roster now, no offense to JWill.
4th OG/OT/OC David Quessenberry (SJS) One of the most versatile OLmen in the draft. Can play all along the OL. Has great Athleticism. Projected to go as a RT but with our offensive line and the injuries that occur in the NFL it is a great value to have a guy who can play all along the line. I see him becoming very good RT opposite Will Beatty. At the worst a good backup all across the line.
5th TE Nick Kasa (Colo) Big TE 66 and 269lbs but remains fast enough to be a factor in the passing game (4.7 40yd). Is a mean blocker who has surprisingly soft hands. Had a team high 15.6 yards per reception this year. We need a good blocking TE and Kasa is just that. Converted from a DE and understands how to block DEs. He is still developing as a TE and will only get better!
6th RB Zac Stacy (Vandy) MOST UNDERATED PLAYER IN THE DRAFT! Is a bowling ball of a RB. Reminds me of Ray Rice to be honest. 59 215lbs and very shifty but runs with power. Another freak athlete, he is extremely explosive. Has a workhorse mentality and can run the ball 20+ times a game.
7th Earl Wolff (NCS) Another Freak athlete in the NCS secondary but also extremely instinctual. Is great in run support (340Tackles over the last 3 seasons). Has long arms to disrupt the ball is flight. Takes good angles and doesnt over run the ball carrier. Good in Zone coverage and reads the QB well. Could be a steal of the draft.
7th QB Peter Lalich (Cal Penn) Was a D1 recruit and started his career with Virginia but was released do to a Underage Drinking incident. He transferred to Oregon State but again a drinking incident ended with his dismissal from the program. He eventually ended up playing for a DII California University of Pennsylvania where he had a great end to his career. Every College kid drinks and he made some mistakes and was very unlucky but not a bad kid, no a drug abuser, was just a young dumb kid. Now on to football. The kid can play QB in the NFL. No QB in this class can throw like him. He throws a tighter spiral with more arm strength and accuracy than anyone at the combine. He absolutely dominated the competition at DII, 335 yards a game and 31 TDs. He is prototype NFL QB at 65 245lbs but the most impressive part of this kids game is between his ears. His coaches have praised his Football IQ and have gone so far as to call him a Football Savant. Would be great to pick him up and see how he develops

It's always best to repair a chipped windshield as soon as possible, before it develops into a nasty crack. While a chip can usually be fixed, a crack means you'll most likely have to get the glass replaced, or you'll be in danger of it shattering at any time, and causing far more serious damage.
If you have All perils other than collision or upset coverage, you're covered for most glass repairs, without having to pay a deductible. Many repair shops will even call your insurer for you, so all you have to do is get it fixed and drive away.
Whether or not the glass can be repaired instead of replaced depends on the size, location and severity of the damage. Most shops can repair quarter-sized chips or cracks up to three inches. However, if the damage is in the corner of the glass, it's far more difficult to repair, and it can compromise the strength of the glass. Anything from a small, flying object to a strong burst of wind could cause the glass to break, which could potentially lead to a crash.
If the damage is such that you have to get the glass replaced, you will be responsible for paying your deductible. So, before that chip gets any bigger than the head of a nail, look for your local glass repair shop and have a qualified glazer inspect the damage.
All perils other than collision or upset coverage is not mandatory, but is often required by creditors or lessors if your vehicle is financed or leased. To find out more, read Choosing the Right Kind of Auto Insurance.

Water damage insurance covers damages caused by surface or ground water.
Our basic coverage is $10,000; however, you can increase this amount for a higher insurance premium.
To calculate how much insurance you really need, you should estimate the value of all your property and investments that could be damaged if you experience a loss.
Bear in mind that your insurance amount includes not only damage to your home and belongings, but also additional living expenses arising from the loss.
In some cases, $10,000 is plenty. In others, more coverage is definitely necessary.

Generally speaking, your insurance premium will increase if you're at fault in an accident, regardless of whether you're entirely or partially at fault. Tickets and convictions can also affect your insurance premium, depending on the type of offense.
The number of at-fault claims, as well as the number of convictions, and/or the type of conviction (such as impaired driving) that you receive may also impact your eligibility for insurance.

A police report is required for most home insurance claims.
If you make a claim, your claims advisor will need various documents, including:
If one of your appliances causes water damage or a fire, it's important for you to keep this appliance for assessment.

Collision and upset covers damage to your car when it rolls over or is involved in a collision with a person, an animal or an object, including a vehicle. For example, if you're driving in a parking lot and you hit another car or bump into a lamp post, or if a shopping cart hits your car, the resulting damage is covered by Collision and upset.
For other damages not covered by Collision and upset, your All perils other than collision or upset coverage takes over. This protection covers glass breakage and damage caused by theft, wind storm, hail, fire, earthquakes and more.
When you purchase both Collision and upset and All perils other than collision or upset coverage with us, you'll get the All Perils coverage, free of charge.

As a policy holder, you are responsible for informing your insurer of any changes made to your vehicle and/or how it is used. This includes things like vehicle modifications, changes in vehicle use (for example, commercial use), the addition of newly licensed drivers to your household, a change of address, etc.
A vehicle modification includes:
Commercial use means any change in use where the insured vehicle is now used for commercial purposes. For example, if you recently became a painter and you started using your mini-van to carry your paint and equipment, this would be considered commercial use.
You should always notify your insurer when any material change, as outlined above, is made to your vehicle. The risk of this change will be re-evaluated and may result in a premium adjustment. If you make any of the changes described above but don't inform your insurer, the insurer can decide to deny your claim, and may even cancel or void your policy. For example, if you modify your vehicle to give it a turbocharged engine and you end up crashing, you'll most likely be refused coverage for violating your insurance contract.
Note: If your vehicle has been modified because of a medical condition, you should still notify your insurer.

A deductible is the amount you must pay when you make an insurance claim.
For example, if you have a $500 Collision deductible, you pay the first $500 of the vehicle repair costs, and we pay the rest.

You can change your payment method through your online account, or by contacting us.
If you're getting a chip repaired, you won't have to pay a deductible. In fact, your repair shop may even call us directly and take care of it all for you.
However, if you need to get glass replaced because of more serious damage, you will be subject to a deductible. So, it's a good idea to get those small chips repaired before they grow into a much bigger problem.

If you need to file a claim following a loss, your insurer will require proof of the loss.
