Sit at 12 or snatch teams from the Big 12. Going to 16 makes no sense if it does not expand revenue.
What will the Pac 12 do?
quote:I'm with them here. They can afford to watch things play out a little bit because they don't need to reassert their conference solidarity like the Big 12, ACC, and Big East do.
Sit tight for the time being. No reason to make any rushed decisions considering if they want schools like BSU and BYU is the future, they can get them with a phone call.
The Big 12 isn't going to die
if they can't land a group of worthwhile schools (OU, Ok State, Texas, Texas Tech was one proposal)
when it comes to big12 teams, there are ways to get out of the max penalty.
UNLV's new stadium looks sweet. Hold the Pac 12 CCG at a neutral site, that being Las Vegas.
quote:I'm a big fan of the Pac 12 adding Hawaii... I'm sure the Pac 12 would love that extra game, too.
Hawaii - If Hawaii were to get an invite to the PAC 12, maybe they could get some of the unreal talent leaving Hawaii and Somoa to stay and build a power program
when it comes to big12 teams, there are ways to get out of the max penalty.
then i guess you don't know how the big 12 is set up with the granting of rights.
If the Pac-12 gets Texas & 3 other schools from the Big-12, it won't matter. There wont be a Big12 anymore.
One of these conferences is going to have to take "risky" schools

Venezuela: Bolivarian Revolution
President Hugo Chávez was elected in 1998 after building his movement over the course of the decade. For many, his election signaled a spreading backlash to the failures of the oligarchy and neoliberalism systems of development that took hold in the country and through out Latin America. Chávez called for a peaceful and democratic "Bolivarian Revolution," appealing to Simon Bolívar's vision of continental sovereignty and cooperation. Many barrio residents and campesinos were already busy organizing in their communities, and the revolution quickly began to take shape. Chávez's government collected input from community groups all over the country in order to create a new constitution, which was ratified by a popular vote of around 70% and went into effect in 2000. The new constitution created a Constituent Assembly, which created measures for land reform and environmental protection along with new political, cultural and economic rights to immigrants, women, indigenous people and more. Chávez easily won re-election under the new constitution, and members of his coalition were elected to local offices nationwide.

This article covers a subject that has been deemed non-canon by either the author or the Harry Potter licensees, and thus should not be taken as a part of the "real" Harry Potter universe.

- "... it spread as far as the eye could see, all over the floor of this building. One plumber said, "Look at all that water". The second plumber said, "Yes, and that's just the top of it"..."
- —Vernon Dursley telling jokes to Mr. Mason[src]
This joke was about two plumbers who found themselves in a flooded building. It was told by Vernon Dursley to Mr Mason and his wife during a dinner party in 1992. However, Vernon was interrupted by noises from upstairs, which were caused by the house-elf Dobby.
Behind the scenes
- In the novel, it is Mr Mason who has a story about American plumbers that Petunia Dursley claims she has been dying to hear. As such this joke seems to be a replacement in the film and then cannot be considered canon.

There are hundreds of omega-3 fish oil blends on the market today, but fish oil supplements vary significantly as far as the levels of omega-3 in each softgel, the source of these omega oils, and the overall purity of the blend. So how do you pick?
A few Fish Factors to Consider
We recommend you use a quick three-point checklist for picking your omega-3 supplement. Think of it as the PPS system: Potency, Purity, Source.
- Potency: Check the label on your bottle of fish oil softgels for the total milligrams of omega-3, not the total milligrams of oil in each serving. This will be listed in the supplement facts a few lines down and may appear separately as DHA and EPA omega-3's, two very beneficial omega types.
- Purity: With all the concern about potential heavy metal (such as mercury) and toxin contamination of whole fish, you want to make sure that your fish oil is rigorously purified and independently third-party tested. Look for a high 5-star purity rating on your fish oil.
- Source: Make sure your fish oils are all cold-water sourced, as these fish types offer you the highest levels of omega-3. Also look for krill oil plus omega-3 fish oil. Krill are a great source of omega-3 and among the most abundant crustaceans in our oceans. The oil derived from krill arrives in a specific and highly absorbable phospholipid form.
Why Choose Krill?
Krill are omega-3 and antioxidant powerhouses. The oil from these small creatures is "pre-emulsified" (more easily incorporated into your cells) and packs an impressive nutritional punch:†
- Krill oil occurs naturally in phospholipid omega-3 form, a highly absorbable form of omega-3 for ease of use and incorporation in cells throughout the body. † Phospholipid levels in our cells decline with age, yet they are needed to help maintain cell membranes, and support skin and brain health.†
- Krill feed on high-antioxidant plant sources and so contain the powerful antioxidant astaxanthin. The beauty of nature's food chain makes this astaxanthin available to you in the krill oil you take.†
ReNew Life's new Norwegian Gold Krill Omega combines our highest purity fish oils with the power of added krill oil for an ultra-potent omega-3 blend. Just one small softgel a day (no more handfuls of large softgels that can contain up to 50% "filler" oils) provides you with 2x more omega-3 than leading krill oil brands. Norwegian Gold Krill Omega also offers you the highest third-party tested 5-star purity rating plus added antioxidants astaxanthin and vitamin D!

Tibetan / Vajrayana
Vajrayana Buddhism is most closely associated with Tibet and can be characterized by the figure of the siddha, the master whose spiritual realization is so profound that he or she has power over the phenomenal world, and in whom the profundity and vastness of absolute truth is fully and completely manifested. Many of our most well-known authors come from this tradition of Tibetan Buddhism .

Tibet's Fundamental Treatise on Other-Emptiness and the Buddha Matrix
Translated here for the first time into any language, Mountain Doctrine is a seminal fourteenth-century Tibetan text on the nature of reality.

I sure could use some help on how to split a hive. I live in central Florida and as soon as my bees finish working the palmetto bloom I would like to split this hive. The problem I have run into is this. All the rest of my hives are two, 10 frame deep brood chambers with suppers added as needed. The hive I want to split is made up of three 3/4 deep brood chambers. I think they measure 7 1/8" tall. Also they are set up using 9 frames instead of 10. In looking into this hive it seems that the bottom 2 boxes are full of brood, while the top boxes frames are nothing but honey. I would like to split them to end up with 1 of the existing boxes and a new deep box on top. Questions I have are.
1. Should I stay with the 9 frame setup or change over to ten. I don't think I can change the existing box as the bees have drawn the comb out to far.
2. If I do split them do I go for a new queen or let them requeen themselves.
3. What should I do with the third box of honey? maybe split it up between the two hives or extract it and give them the drawn comb to use.
Any help on this would bee greatly apprecated. Thanks in advance Jim Kuh.

Reviews of this property
Everything perfect.
The room an bathroom completely clean.
Perfect location .
Gerrit very nice and helpful.
I would recommend 100%!
Thank you, Gerrit!
I recommend 200% Guerrit´s place. It´s very well located and really comfortable. Guerrit is such a nice host!!!
Gerrit was a great host who provided detailed information on what to see & do in Munich. The property was well located just a 10 minute walk to the CBD or one stop by train or tram from the centre.
The room was well presented although fairly crammed for space but with sole use of a good bathroom.
I would certainly recommend it to travellers for short stays.
Fantastic! Great! Perfect! The room is nice, comfortable & quiet, with TV, HiFi, water, coffee & tea. The bathroom is in front of the room, very clean, plenty of towels, soap & a nice window. The area is really nice, with easy public transport & walking distant to the city centre.
Gerrit is a fantastic host that is always helping & giving you all necessary information & asking you if you need anything. And it's also giving you your private space that is fantastic from my point of view. Absolutely recommended. I hope I'll come back soon! Thanks Gerrit!!!
Gerrit was very nice with us, very flexible.
The flat is very well located (5min away from Marienplatz) and the room (+bathroom) are clean.

Sehr schöne Wohnung in der Nähe von Kathedrale und Hafen. Die Wohnung wirkt kleiner als auf den Fotos, aber vollkommen ausreichend für vier Personen. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet. Die Wohnung ist vom Flughafen gut mit dem Bus zu erreichen. Die Übergabe der Wohnung hat super geklappt und die Betreuung durch den Vermieter auch während des Aufenthaltes war sehr hilfreich. Die Wohnung ist für einen Urlaub in Palma wirklich zu empfehlen.
이 호스트의 또 다른 숙소후기
We really enjoyed the stay ! The host welcomed us with the champain ! :) That was a really good start of our vacations ! :) Only the last they at 2 am there were new people in the apartament on 2nd floor and they were screaming and making loud music but its not the fail of the hosts ! :) Althought we really enjoyed the stay and we will be back there for sure ! :)
Location is where you want to be for a city stay close to the water/port/nightlife! The noise level was completely bareable and we're very light sleepers & the apartment itself was really clean and practical. Kitchen could do with a couple more utensils but overall wasjust what we wanted. Host was very polite! Be ready for the steep stair case! Not suitable for older people.. All in all a lot of charm
I had a lovely stay with my family. The apartment was well equipped, with everything you need and very clean. The location of the apartment was great with few minutes walking distance to shops, restaurants and the train/bus station. To add our host- Laura was really nice, friendly and answered all our questions.She was really helpful. Over all everything was amazing. :)
Really nice
Location is nice n pretty. but very NOISY!
The apartment environment is just way too noisy. U can easily hear people shouting on the street during the night and listen to crowd chattering and laughing at the Cafe nearby during the early morning.
WiFi is just a bullshit.
There is actually no WiFi in this apartment but the host gave us the Cafe WiFi nearby. Cant access WiFi at all in the apartment but forced to get out to the cafe to get access.
Water supply is too small. Tiny Bathroom
Hardly shower comfortably with a small water supply inside the small tiny bathroom
Tiny flat pillow.
Bed is ok and reasonable but the pillow is just too flat. U can feel the cheapness of it by waking up at the next day with sore neck muscles.
A lot more to improve for the price.
Fin lägenhet med jättebra läge i Gamla stan och nära till hamnen. Det betyder också att det var livligt på kvällarna med ganska mycket ljud utifrån. Sköna sängar. Saknade lite småsaker men det mesta fanns. Bredbandet var dock uruselt.

Let's see some photos of these great blocks. I found these two easier then last week!
Here are my blocks. I must admit I did them awhile ago. I did cut all the outside triangles larger than required to make sure I had points after squaring up the block. Anne
Block # 19
Block # 20
I did too! I got tired of trying to stretch them out to be the 6 1/2 inches. I'd be so-o close but not quite there so I'd dampen them and press while pulling just a little.Quote:

The sprint triathlon distance (0.47-mile swim, a 12.4-mile bike ride and a 3.1-mile or 5K run) is the most popular race in the triathlon world, and most triathlon coaches consider this distance the perfect beginner's race for the following reason: With a solid 12-week training plan and one workout a day (excluding recovery or off-days), even people without a swimming, biking or running background will be able to complete this distance in about 90 minutes and have lots of fun along the way.
If you've been training in any of the three sports, you have likely already established a "base" in one or more of the three sports. If you need to get started in all three sports, you want to build an endurance base focusing on distance first. Build gradually and progress your weekly distance by no more than 10 percent to prevent injuries. This rule applies to all three sports.
Starting Your Swim Training
Swimming is the most technical of the three sports and often the biggest challenge for beginners. Hiring a coach or entering a swim program will give you the fastest and best results for learning proper technique.
Starting Your Bicycling Training
If you haven't been bicycling much and plan to enter a road race, ask yourself how comfortable you are riding on the street. Join group rides or a bicycling club for motivation and support.
Starting Your Running Training
If you're an experienced runner, practicing running off the bike (or bike-to-run brick workouts) will give you a new appreciation for running.If you've never run before, joining a local running club or participating in organized training runs can teach you proper technique, pacing and how to avoid running-related injuries. If you had a previous injury or a physical condition that will make running difficult, visit your doctor first.
The best way to condition your body for the rigors of an endurance event is to approach training in cycles or phases (also known as periodization training).Let's look at the individual phases:
Base Phase
This phase is designed to create a foundation of safe and gradual progression to build aerobic fitness and endurance. Most of the training is done at a moderate intensity where you can hold a conversation. Some beginners who merely want to cross the finish line keep training in this phase until race day, which is perfectly fine.
Build Phase
Once you've established a good base, your body can handle more high-intensity training to build sport-specific strength and power. Increase your aerobic fitness and your ability to resist fatigue at higher speeds in all three sports. Warm up before long or hard sessions and perform a cool-down.
Peak Phase
In this phase, the top training priority is the performance of workouts that are highly race-specific. You also want to practice transitioning from one sport to another, which is best done via brick workouts which involve doing one workout immediately following another (e.g., doing a running workout right after completing a cycling workout).
During this cycle, your training load is steadily reduced to give your body time to rest and get ready for maximum performance on race day.
For many beginners, putting all three sports together is often the biggest concern.The best way to know what it will feel like to ride a bike after swimming 500 yards and to run off the bike is to practice transitions. Some ideas for transition workouts (2 to 3 weeks prior to race day) include swimming for 500 yards (preferably in open water) and then riding your bike for 30 minutes near race pace, or perform a 45-minute easy bike ride followed by an immediate transition to a 20-minute run.

I have noticed a lot of beeks have bees for sale comming out of the almond groves or other pollination sites? Why would they want to sell them?
If they plan to stay in business won't they need them the next year?
If I understand right the bees are often week comming out of the groves. Is this because there are more bees per acre than the land will support? If so would they be ok if moved onto better foraging conditions?

Does anyone have any inkling as to why there have been those ugly white tarps underneath the METLIFE signage on the top of the stadium? They have been there for almost a year, if not more and the only reason I could have deduced was during the winter, the fear of snow/ice buildup on the top of the letters falling down onto escalator riders. Regardless, they're hideous and I need to know what they're real reason for existing is!
(I work in that big white office building across Rt 3 so I must look at this debacle on a daily basis)

A minimal investment in roof brackets will immediately reward you with much greater roof safety and convenience. But if you have to spend a lot of time up there or have an especially steep roof, we recommend that you also buy a roof harness system (about $300). It's the next best thing to a parachute. We'll tell you what to buy and how to use it, and give you some general roofing safety tips too.
If you don't own one already, buy ($200) or rent (about $30 per day) a sturdy extension ladder that extends at least 3 ft. above the roof edge. Aluminum is the lightest, but fiberglass ladders provide better protection against electrocution in case the ladder accidentally touches a power line or live wire. If possible, set the ladder on firm, level ground. On uneven ground, place squares of plywood under one foot to level the ladder base and then secure it with wire or rope tied to stakes. Fasten the top of the ladder with rope or wire tied to a secure anchoring point such as a 20d nail driven into a rafter. That will keep it from sliding sideways as you step onto the roof.
Stepping from the ladder to the roof or from the roof to the ladder is precarious and can be unnerving. Here are a few pointers to make it easier and safer:
When it comes to roofs, even the best safety equipment is no substitute for common sense and good judgment. Here are some tips for working safely on a roof:
Nail a row of roof brackets about 18 in. up from the eave and about 4 ft. apart. Position the brackets directly over a rafter or truss (Fig. A). Install each bracket by lifting a shingle tab and sliding the bracket under it. Then pound 20d common nails into each slot, making sure they hit the rafter or truss.
Lay a 2x6 plank across the brackets and attach it to the brackets with screws. Make sure the 2x6 extends at least 6 in. but not more than 12 in. past the end brackets. Set another row of roof brackets and planks about every 8 ft. up the roof, or as close together as needed to make your work safe and convenient.
Bracket nails must go into roof framing supports below the sheathing.
Build a 'slide guard' with roof brackets and 2x6s as a first line of defense
Once you're safely up to the roof, you'll want to set up roof brackets and planks all along the eave. These serve a dual purpose. They allow you a safe place to step onto and rest tools and materials. And they also act as a slide guard that will help prevent you from falling off the edge of the roof if you lose your footing higher up and slide down.
Photos 1 and 2 show how to fasten the brackets to the roof and secure the planks. Each roof bracket should have a label on it with complete instructions. Read and follow them carefully.
First locate a truss or rafter—the roof brackets must be nailed through the sheathing and into these structural members. The exposed rafter tails on our roof made this easy. If you're not so lucky, listen and feel for a solid spot as you tap across the roof with a hammer. When you locate solid wood, carefully slide the blade of a pry bar under the shingle to separate it from the shingle underneath, and gently bend the tab up. Then you can place the nails where they'll be covered by the shingle (Photo 1). If you feel the nail miss the rafter (it will penetrate easily), pull it out and put a dab of caulk or plastic roofing cement on the hole to seal it. Then move the nail over an inch and try again.
Rafters in older homes are usually 16 in. apart, while trusses in newer homes are usually 24 in. apart. Both have 1-1/2 in. of nailing surface. Measure from the first bracket to find more rafters or trusses. Complete the slide guard by adding the 2x6 plank (Photo 2). Now you can safely work your way up the roof by adding more brackets and planks about every 8 ft. When you're done on the roof, remove the brackets and planks in the opposite order, starting at the top and working down (Photo 6).
Strap on the safety harness according to the manufacturer's instructions. Tighten the straps for a snug fit. Double-check all the buckles before you go onto the roof.
Fasten the roof anchor to the peak according to the manufacturer's instructions. We drove six 1/4 x 2-in. lag screws through the roof boards into the rafters. Predrill 3/16-in. holes. Then use a wrench to tighten the lag screws.
Clip the end of the safety rope to the ring on the roof anchor. Then clip the lanyard to the D-ring on the back of the harness. Squeeze the rope-grab and slide it along the safety rope to reposition the lanyard on the rope as you move around the roof.
Relocate or remove brackets by pounding up to slide them off the nails. Keep the lowest set of planks in place until you're done on the roof. Store tools and supplies in a bucket hung from a roof bracket.
On low-pitched roofs where footing is no problem and the eaves are less than 12 ft. or so from the ground, you may feel safe working with just roof brackets and planks in place. This is OK. But for the ultimate in roof safety, especially on steeper roofs or big jobs, invest in a safety harness and rope. Photos 4 and 5 show how to set up the harness and rope (technically called a "personal fall arrest system"). The roof anchor must be fastened securely to solid wood like a rafter, truss or ridge beam, not just through the roof boards or plywood. Models vary slightly, so read the manufacturer's instructions and follow them carefully. Here are a few of the key points:
Safety Harness
The harness is only one part of a personal fall arrest system. It's called a "system" because all the components—the harness, lanyard, rope-grab, rope and roof anchor—are carefully engineered to work together. You can also check at roofing suppliers (see "Roofing" in the Yellow Pages or search online). Consider splitting the cost with friends or neighbors and sharing the kit.
I don't know a single carpenter or roofer who hasn't had a close call on a roof, but most will readily admit they were doing something stupid at the time. Roofs are inherently dangerous places, but if you follow our suggestions and stay focused on safety, you'll greatly reduce the chances of an accident. And with the roof brackets and personal fall arrest system in place, if you do slip, at least you'll live to tell about it.
Roof Brackets
Roof brackets are available at hardware stores, lumberyards, roofing suppliers and home centers for $5 to $10 each. Buy enough 90-degree brackets (Photo 1) to place one bracket every 4 ft. along the edge of the roof below where you'll be working. Use brackets designed to hold a 2x6. Larger planks are too hard to step over when you're getting onto the roof. You'll want additional rows of brackets and planks about 8 ft. apart across the roof to rest supplies on and provide secure footing.
Buy the best 2x6s you can find. Make sure the knots are small (under 1 in. diameter) and don't go all the way through the board.

Jimmy Page: After the Yardbirds...Comes Led Zeppelin
By BEN BLUMMENBERG
Boston Phoenix February 5, 1969
The Led Zeppelin landed in Boston, Thursday Jan. 22, and for four consecutive evenings virtually blew an overflow Boston Tea Party crowd clear into the Charles River. Playing long sets, well over an hour in length, the Zeppelin lived up to its advance billing as a group of exceptional power and drive. What also emerged, however, is that the L. Z. possesses extraordinary complexity as well.
Both the official publicity on the band, and the unofficial rumor mill, told of a blues rock unit built around the guitar genius of Jimmy Page. (Jimmy Page is the last of the three exceptional lead guitarists produced by England's amazing Yardbirds. The other two are Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck.) This description just scratches the surface. The Led Zeppelin is launched from a blues-rock base but is no means limited by it. Furthermore, the L.Z. is truly a talented and diversified unit, not just a backup group for Jimmy Page.
In concert, the L.Z. went through most of the material on their first album (Atlantic 8216) plus some newer, unrecorded songs. The titles and lyrics may be basic blues, but the approach and performance is of a much wider scope. Perhaps the most outstanding feature of the Zeppelin is that they employ three or four major instrumental concepts in almost every song. The impression, to say the least, is staggering! Indeed the L.Z.'s only fault is a tendency to compress too much into a short space of time.
Rhythm changes abruptly, time patterns change abruptly, volume levels change abruptly, yet melodic line and chord skeletons manage to merge kaleidoscopically as each member of the band feeds one another and in turn plays off the idea thrown out. The entire approach is very loose and very improvisational. The result is a surprising intricacy developed out of a form that is usually considered to be quite simple. Yet the basic power is never lost. In one sense, the Led Zeppelin represents the best of two worlds.
A few things that particularly got me: 1) At various times during "You Shook Me" Robert Plant (vocals) and Jimmy Page (lead) play riffs off against each other with Plant's voice frequently acquiring the electrical qualities indistinguishable from Page's guitar. 2) A 5-minute drum solo by John Bonham that includes some fantastic and hysterical hand drumming but really defies description. 3) The Frequent quiet passages in "Black Mountain Side" by Jimmy Page, which approach the best of pure mountain music.
For my taste, the Led Zeppelin really gets it all together on "How Many More Times," with which they like to close an evening. This ten-or-more-minute master-piece has one of the most infections rhythmic cores I ever heard. If you don't want to jump, dance, and smile after hearing this, you must be dead. This core, which involves everybody, provides the departure point for extended individual solos by each member of the band. The technically impressive pile driving bass of John Paul Jones is a spiritual gift. Plant's amazing vocal power is at its best. Jimmy Page's virtuosity runs the gamut from explorations into abstract electronics to down-home funk. "How Many More Times" is one of those rare rock developments that could literally never end. The wild, screaming reception accorded The Led Zeppelin certainly bears this feeling out.
I expect the Led Zeppelin to be flying high for some time. They and the Jeff Beck Group are to rock what Formula One cars are to road racing. Their raw power is compelling and hypnotic while their complexity makes repeated exposure a pleasure. The L.Z. vary the arrangements of the same song on successive nights quite widely. As Jimmy Page who has little sympathy with complicated studio effects said to me: "If we can't do it live, we won't do it." That idea hits me just right, as does the entire Led Zeppelin from stem to stern. (Boston Phoenix)

Concert description
This is all that is known to exist from this show. The band sunds really strong and Robert's voice is in its most primitive and powerful stage. Dazed And Confused is a very powerful and excting version. I only hope the rest of this great show comes out someday! The band stopped after The Train Kept A Rollin' because Jimmy Page had troubles with his guitar. "It's great to be in Boston. According to Jimmy it's one of the best places he's even played! I think, right now, in the shops there's an album called Led Zeppelin. I don't know whether it's out here yet. Is it out? You see, in one place it comes out one day and another place three weeks later. On this album we've tried to do a cross section of everything we've got into and we've included some blues because that's where it all comes from!" said Plant while Jimmy was preparing a guitar string.

I love Simplefit, pullups/pushups/squats... that trio of exercises is seriously hard to beat, complete full body workout.
From following simplefit on and off for the last 4 or 5 years, I've come to a number of conclusions as to why I kept changing routines and not really getting the results I've been after.
I think it generally comes down to what our bodies best respond to, for me personally, it's slightly different variations of simplefit exercises.
As a "skinnyfat" type build, I want ideally a bigger upper chest, triceps and bigger biceps.
My modifications to simplefit:
Diamond Pushups instead of regular Pushups
Close Grip Chinups instead of regular Pullups.
Running and Cycling - as much as my time permits!
Going to start off on level 3 of simpefit and see how I get on.

Professors Roxanne Henkin, Janis Harmon and Elizabeth Pate co-edit Voice from the Middle journal
By Ashley Harris
Public Affairs Specialist
(April 24, 2007)--Roxanne Henkin, Janice Harmon and Elizabeth Pate, professors in the Department of Interdisciplinary Learning and Teaching in the UTSA College of Education and Development, recently were named co-editors of the journal, Voices from the Middle.
Today's headlines
- La Prensa Foundation is newest member of UTSA Lone Star Society
- UTSA alumna Jordan Kaufmann wins $50K for new stent-graft start-up
- UTSA begins new way-finding sign installation this summer at Main Campus

Henkin, Harmon and Pate will oversee the journal of the National Council of Teachers of English until 2011. They just published their third edition. From its inception 15 years ago, Voices from the Middle has been the premiere journal for middle-level educators.
"This is a tremendous opportunity for us to contribute to conversations on literacy at the middle-education level and to interact with teachers from all over the world," said Henkin. "We want the journal to bridge theories to teaching, as the articles will offer specific classroom practices that are grounded in research."
Henkin, Harmon and Pate introduced several changes to the publication including revised columns and sidebars, a peer-review process for article submission and a new section on technology in education.
In late March, the three editors were keynote speakers for the annual San Antonio Council of Teachers of English meeting. At the symposium, Henkin, Harmon and Pate highlighted their favorite teaching ideas culled from recent issues of the journal, offered insights into the editing and publishing process, and offered suggestions for teachers interested in writing for the publication.

The suspended products are: Antarc (ingredient: imidacloprid; produced by Bayer), Chinook (imidacloprid; Bayer), Cruiser (thiamethoxam; Syngenta), Elado (clothianidin; Bayer), Faibel (imidacloprid; Bayer), Mesurol (methiocarb; Bayer) and Poncho (clothianidin; Bayer).
Beekeepers and agricultural officials in Italy, France and Holland all noticed similar phenomena in their fields when planting began a few weeks ago. The use of these pesticides has also affected the population of wild bees and other insects, prompting the Coalition against Bayer-dangers to demand that the pesticide maker withdraw all neonicotinoids from the market worldwide.

Shell Materials
You can select the shell material from maple or birch. Hard, dense maple delivers a warm tone with outstanding sustain and produces a versatile tone that blends well with a wide range of musical styles, making it popular with drummers from all over the world. Birch, remarkably easy to work with, this hard, finely grained wood offers excellent mid and low sustain with solid, well-defined high range.
"Air Seal System" Technology
At Yamaha, the process of manufacturing drum shells begins with selection of the materials. Select woods are cut into sheets with precision cut diagonal ends. The plies are fit into a form and hammered into place by a highly skilled craftman. The angled ends allow the craftman to finlely adjust the ply length, thus maintaining proper tension. Ply joints are staggered by 120-degrees and hammered into place in the same manner. An air bag placed inside of the shell and inflated at high-pressure puts even pressure on the shell's inner surface creating a perfectly round shell with uniform thickness and excellent durability. This is the Air Seal System, a process that has been in use at Yamaha for over 40 years.
Nouveau Lug
Our designers have created a low mass, attractive lug cashing that, with a few turns, detaches from a metal "button bolt" attached to the shell. Off goes the head, rim, lug, and tuning rod in one unit. No more fishing for missing rods or washers. When, seconds later, the head and assembly is reattached, the lug fastens onto the shell bolt. A few turns of the rod, and the head is ready to play. With an absolute minimum of hardware touching the shell and with the fixed bolts attached at nodal points*, the shell is now able to vibrate freely, *Nodal point mounting is patented by the Nobel & Cooley Drum Company.
Yamaha Enhanced Sustain System - YESS
The secret of our YESS system is twofold: First, it provides minimum contact of hardware with shell; second, it connects that hardware at the nodal point* of the drum_he point at which it will not interfere with shell vibration. Nylon bushings on rod clamps afford maximum stability. The YESS system permits toms to be placed close together, and does not interfere with quick head changes. On floor toms, our YESS system offers wide open sustain while keeping toms stable under the heaviest strokes. * Nodal point mounting is patented by the Noble & Cooley Drum Company.
Ball Mount & Clamp
A tribute to Yamaha design technology, our original ball mount and clamp has gone through very few modifications over the years. A large, ultra-hard resin ball sits in an attractive chromed housing, held in place with a titanium ergonomic wing bolt. It is the ultimate drummer-friendly mount, offering non-slip positioning virtually anywhere the drummer can imagine. Additionally, it permits tuning of the bottom head by simply rotating the drum.
Additional Air Holes
Historically, most drums have been vented with a single air hole. Yamaha engineers studied bass drum dynamics and, with the Absolute Series, provided the customary top vent hole on the player's side, and then added holes located around the front end of the shell. The additional air holes permit additional air, the result of "internal combustion", to escape, providing a distinctly more comfortable beater action, more controllable on the rebound. The reduction in beater vibration and backlash is particularly noticeable when an intact head without a hole is used on the audience side.
Bass Drum Spurs
The result of years of refinement, Yamaha bass drum legs prevent bass drums from creeping forward, in most instances without carpets or tacky underlays. Quick and easy to use, Yamaha bass drum legs keep bass drums rigid and immovable, even under the hardest pounding. Thicker tubing, combined with drum key operated height adjustability and easy-slide metal points, as found on our cymbal stands, provide enhanced stability.
Bass Drum "R-Version"
When using a rack system or for musicians who don't want to obstruct the tonality of the bass drum by mounting a tom, the "R-Version" Bass Drum has been introduced to the Absolute Series. Now you can experience every bit of that pure bass drum sound.
Floating Bass Drum System
A pipe post stabilizer on the pedal side of the bass drum provides height adjustment and positions the beater so that it strikes the center of the bass drum batter head. A memory clamp on the pipe slides into a special receiver on the bottom of the bass drum, allowing for quick set up and exact height retention.

Serves 8
Prep Time 20 min
Total Time 320 min.
Step 1
Combine blueberries, water, cinnamon stick, honey, ginger and cardamom pods (if using) in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring, until most of the blueberries have burst, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove the cardamom pods and cinnamon stick. Puree the soup in 2 batches in a blender until smooth (use caution when pureeing hot liquids). Place a fine sieve over the pan and pour the soup through it back into the pan, straining out any solids. (Discard the solids.)
Step 2
Whisk cornstarch and milk in a measuring cup until smooth. Whisk into the blueberry mixture. Bring the soup to a boil over medium heat, stirring. Boil, stirring constantly, until the soup thickens slightly, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and let cool for 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl, loosely cover and chill until cold, at least 5 hours or up to 2 days.
Step 3
Just before serving, whisk 1 cup sour cream into the soup and ladle into bowls; top each serving with 1/2 teaspoon sour cream and swirl decoratively into the soup. Garnish with additional blueberries, if desired.

Math problem
Suppose a basketball team goes into a game making 37% of its field goal attempts. What are the odds that, during any 29-shot sequence, the team will go 0 for 29 in that sequence?
I'm coming up with 659,638 to 1.

If we were talking dice or coins and there were exactly 29 trials (shots) and no more, then the probability of missing all 29 is .63^29 which is about .00000152 which comes out to 1/659,362, according to Windows calculator.
However, if they took more than 29 shots, then the probability of missing some 29-shot sequence is somewhat higher. The calculations are complicated and frankly not worth the effort, but there's probably a free online applet somewhere that will do them for you if you're all that interested.
You can further complicate matters by calculating the probability of missing at least 29 in a row, as opposed to exactly.
And as others have pointed out, there's a laundry list of possible reasons why the historical average may not have been meaningful for this game. There are also possible reasons why the historical average may be bullshit (e.g., a shooter who got super-hot for a few games before returning to form.)
Yes, but you're assuming — and it may very well be a good assumption, but it would need to be empirically verified — that the defensive capabilities of the team against which they went 0 for 29 are roughly the same as those of the teams against which they shot 37%.
and ignore that different players have different chances of making shots, and probably more importantly different shots have widely varying chances of success. Sure using the mean minimizes error if you know nothing else, but it's usually not that hard to get more information, particularly data on the original context of of the offensive and defensive percentages as John P. says
I think if you looked at it carefully, you'd find that the variation in the statistics of making different kinds of shots leads to a higher likelihood of streaks. And you can combine that with the fact that you will certainly see correlation (both negative and positive) for stretches of time as a team's defense figures out how to shut down an opposing offense for a particular set of things they are trying to do (and then the offense figures out how to beat that defense, leading to negative correlations in other cases).
In other words, basketball is not a random walk process.
In random processes, streaks are not uncommon (depending on the size of the domain). Oh! And there's a paper!
Yes, the calculation only holds if one assumes that the shots are probabilistically independent, which might not hold for human shooters.
The paper I references makes a reasonable case that they can be so regarded at least enough to cast strong doubt on any "streak" phenomenon.
But it raises questions as to anti-streakiness. The article (Table 2) gives a z score of -1.88 for Andrew Toney's streakiness. The p value for this is 0.06, which is greater than the alpha of 0.05. But we're not testing methods of brain surgery, so why should we have such a low alpha?
Sorry, I went back and looked and I'm afraid I'm not following your concern. Spell it out for me?
On table 2 of the article you cited, there is a z score of -1.88 for Andrew Toney. The probability that one would have such a score given that his shots are independent is 0.06 (p=0.06). For medical testing, taking alpha=0.05 or lower is prudent, but should we err so much on the side of caution here? Also, since the score is negative (Toney has more runs than expected), Toney is anti-streaky, i. e. more likely to miss a shot if he made the previous shot.
Significance lines are "merely" conventional, so, yes, it's clear that there's some correlation there. And yes, he's antistreaky.
But so? Both anti-streaky and streaky looking patterns are possible in a random process.
Isn't the interesting thing about Toney (cf pg 303) is that he was perceived as a streak shooter when his record is moderately antistreaky? That should at least give us some pause, right?
You need to factor in the defensive prowess of Eastern Michigan. And the 3 point versus 2 point percentages. But it's still a big number.
Odds, hell. How to you take the 23rd shot?
I think this reduces the shot to something isolated like a coin flip. I see they ended up shooting 13.x% for the game, which is definitely far lower than their season average, but picking a given 29 shot sequence strikes me as cherry picking the exceptional(ly bad).
More simply, if you are flipping a coin with a 37% chance of getting heads, and you get tails 29 times in a row, i trust your calculations….so on a thought exercise as to that type of thinking/calculation…good on ya. But in basketball, the FG% – both offensive (and defensive for the opposing team) – are aggregated stats…so a given run is just that…a sequence that contributes to the larger FG% calcs (that are aggregated/ongoing).
Yes it was exceptionally bad, but i'm not sure it can be reduced to such a specific odds calculation. Someone more intelligent in the world of complex stats can probably correct me on this.
(note: you see this all the time in sports commentary…"at this rate, they'll rush for 800 yards" (after a big first quarter) etc etc…. not surprisingly, by the end of the games, some of these exceptional windows come much closer to expected deviations around their seasonal averages.
Yes, 659,362 to 1 is the odds of missing that particular 29-shot sequence. So if you had asked before the game, "What are the odds that Northern Illinois would miss shots 2 through 30 against Eastern Michigan," that's your best estimate. If you want to know what's the chance that they'll miss 29 straight shots at any point in the season, you have to consider that there are, what, a couple thousand shots in one season, each of which starts a 29-shot sequence. So the odds that Northern Illinois misses 29 straight at some point in the season are more like 329 to 1. Some of their opponents are better defensive teams than others, which makes 29 straight misses even more likely. Multiply by the number of teams with lousy shooting percentages each year, multiply by the number of years people have been keeping track of college basketball statistics, and it was bound to happen sooner or later.
But yeah, NIU alums have an embarrassingly bad basketball team to cheer for.
+1 for explaining how things that are statistically unlikely at any given point are ultimately close to inevitable.

The math is a bit more complicated. See this Stack Overflow discussion for a start.
That's impressive. My head started hurting before the first paren.
Solve this one: What are the odds of an NBA point guard continuing to feed the ball to a shooter who goes 0-17 in a game AND the point guard and the shooter are the same person? And the team actually wins the game?
What does de Moivre have to say about that?
My head started hurting before the first paren.
Mine started hurting at "Suppose…."
Actually, the odds are much worse than that. The proof is obvious.
But this comment box is too small to contain it?
And so it remains unsolved for the next couple of centuries. I think I'll stop there, for today.
There are multiple ways to interpret the problem, but those interpretations yield higher probabilities, not lower ones. Your "obvious" proof is obviously wrong.
The proof is obvious.
Intuitively obvious to the most casual observer?
shouldn't you have used the name Fermat when saying something like that
The 1995-6 Chicago Bulls – they of the 72-10 fame – had a team 3 pointer FG percentage of just over 40%.
Yet, in game 5 of the finals they threw 20 consecutive bricks from behind the 3 point line.
Somehow I think that was more improbable than a weak college team missing 29 in a row.
This is similar to my issue with that paper that came out that said 'streaky shooters? Not so much!'.
If you play basketball, you know you want to get it to the person with the hot hand. That's how we played.
Making them is psychological, just like missing. I saw Mark Aguirre make 9 in a row one game, and after 6 or 7 he thought he couldn't miss. And for a couple more, he couldn't. Then he took a J off balance and missed, then he bricked a couple, then coach made him sit to get his head in the game.
You mean this one??
If you play basketball, you know you want to get it to the person with the hot hand.
Isn't the question whether you are right to so want?

What's the evidence for that?
I saw Mark Aguirre make 9 in a row one game, and after 6 or 7 he thought he couldn't miss. And for a couple more, he couldn't.
How do you know this? What makes the 6 or 7 different from the subsequent 2 that were followed by:
Then he took a J off balance and missed, then he bricked a couple, then coach made him sit to get his head in the game.
Yeah, this isn't so very convincing. The psychological state might have no causal effect whatsoever. Indeed, it could be that treating him specially would lower his overall performance (it's easy to imagine many scenarios e.g., he's in fact better than everyone else so pulling him for a negative "streak" is counterproductive).

Record crowd enjoys Sunriver 'Run for Chocolate'
SUNRIVER, Ore. - Runners must love chocolate, based on the turnout for Sunriver Resort's third annual Run for Chocolate 5K Run and Walk held Saturday.
The resort welcomed 340 registrants and many more spectators to the pet-friendly race, which benefits the La Pine High School Athletic Department.
A love of chocolate may also be driving increasingly faster times, as this year's fastest runner crossed the finished line more than a minute under last year's winner.
Top finishers for 2013 were Rick Floyd from Bend setting a 5:30 pace for a final time of 17:09, Jason Gulley of Bellingham, WA, with a time of 18:09 and Kenny Thisseu of Hillsboro in third place with a time of 18:39. The top female finishers included Bend locals Stasia Smith with a time of 20:47, Natalia Martin with a time for 22:13, and Colleen Sullivan with a time for 22:16.
Runners were offered hot chocolate at race check-in, treated to a chocolate at an aid station during the race, and enjoyed chocolate treats and signature race mugs immediately after crossing the finish line.
Following their finish, racers made their way to the warmth of the Sunriver Resort Abbott Room, where they indulged in various chocolate delicacies before enjoying a lively awards ceremony and taking in the Chocolate Vendor Showcase below.
The Month of Chocolate events are made possible by event sponsors Bend Broadband, Estancia Vineyards and Widmer Brother's Brewing. For more information, visit www.sunriver-resort.com/chocolate or call 800-609-1589.

- - Kibble Feeders: Who DOESN'T feed grain-free? Why? (http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/diet-nutrition/204738-kibble-feeders-who-doesnt-feed-grain-free-why.html)
Kibble Feeders: Who DOESN'T feed grain-free? Why?
Most people, myself included, have seen the great benefits of feeding grain free kibble. But I know there are people out there that for whatever reason choose not to.
For those of you who don't already know, I feed RAW and kibble to my dogs for financial reasons. (Otherwise, I'd go full on RAW.) The dogs evening kibble meal is currently a grain free kibble, but I am seriously considering switching to a brand called Lukullus. This kibble has brown rice in it.
I'm curious to see how many of you kibble feeders out there have opted for a kibble that ISN'T grain free and why you chose to do so.
Also, here are the ingredients of Lukullus. Any thoughts?
Beef meal (28%), brown rice, trout meal (6%), cold-pressed rapeseed oil, algae, alfalfa, beets, rice germs, herbs, pears, apples, egg yolk powder, caraway, linseed oil, carob, silica, kieselgur, yucca schidigera, bilberries, trace elements, vitamins
I don't fee grain free. I was going to switch, but why would I if the dogs are healthy, like the food, have a nice coat, and poop is good. They are doing well with what they eat and I doubt I'll change it. We are all comfortable:)
I feed Fromm, Jazzy eats the grain free varieties of their Four Star Line. Delgado eats their LBP for now which unfortunately isn't grain free but he will be switched
The only benefit I see to grain free kibble is the reduction of gluten and that the proteins in the grains can be allergens (as can proteins from any source-grains, meats, peas - even potatoes). Gluten can also cause problems with nutrient absorbtion.
There are gluten free grains. (amaranth, brown rice, buckwheat,corn, millet, quinoa, sorghum, teff). Peas and beans are gluten free but the proteins bring allergy possibilities there as well. Corn is genetically modified (GMO) in such large numbers and has usually been sprayed with herbicides during its growth--virtually all corn has been "infected" with the genes from GMO corn, even organic corn, which by definition cannot be GMO. [same thing is also true for canola and soybeans and all these GMO producs are fed in large quantity to cattle, swine and poultry so unless you are feeding grass fed, grain free animals or organic meats you are getting the GMOs in the back door]. Brown rice has its own problems at that grown in the SE US is high in arsenic due to years and years of treating cotton grops with arsenic insecticides. It is more susceptible than other crops because the wet growing conditions facilitate uptake.
Carbohydrates are needed for the extrusion process and to reduce cost.
They are not necessary for a dogs nutrition and are to a dog's detriment if in excess.
Dogs do not have salivary amylase, only pancreatic amylase.
Potatoes, particularly white, are no better than many grains as they have a high glycemic index and, if low quality culls, can have solanine (green) on them which is toxic. Sweet potatoes are better.
The ingredients in dog food are ranked by weight but that can be misleading. Meat has much much more water than meat meals and may be lower in protein than the next on the list.
You can look at the label and one food may be 50% meat meal, then 48% grain while the next is 60% meat meal and 25% grain. You can't tell by looking. Those are not real number, just an example of how different they can be. Also ingredients can be splt so they are lower in the list but are still high in the food.
I don't feed grain-free. My dogs do very well on California Natural Lamb and Rice so I have no reason to switch. They are healthy, good weight, shiny coats, no allergies, small/firm poops. I've tried a wide variety of other kibbles (some supposedly better) and always go back. I last tried Fromm because it is cheaper yet made in the USA but they all itched like crazy and their poop was horrid (HUGE and disgustingly stinky). They like the Cal Nat kibble and it's very easy for me to store large amounts and travel with. I occasionally supplement with raw venison, beef marrow bones, or chicken breast. They also get fish oil capsules and coconut oil though I'm not sure either have made any difference (but it doesn't hurt to add).
I tried grain free (Earthborne lamb based) with my dogs, 1 gained weight even when I adjusted for the calories, 1 lost weight and I had to feed more, and the last 1 was the straw that made me go back to a grain based food Frank had severe diarrhea on it.
After taking Frank to the vet several times and clearing any medical reason for the diarrhea, I noticed that all I had to do was add rice to his food and it stopped.
I switched all 3 back to a good food with rice in it and all 3 are doing Great, Frank's poop has never been better.
I finally found a dog food that my dogs like and do well on. Why would I switch just because it says grain free?
I do like the grain free kibbles and my dogs have done well on them in the past, but right now, the one they are on is causing really really really bad gas issues with them both. The stench could kill a donkey. :eek:
Also there is the cost involved. For me, a bag of Orijen costs 100 euro. That translates to about $133. For ONE bag that's 13.5kg (29lb). That's a lot of money for me, especially with two dogs. I've never used Orijen because of that reason, but instead have used TOTW in the past (which I can't use right now because the calcium is too high for the puppy, and I'd prefer that both dogs eat the same kibble.) and Purizon (which has low calcium but is causing the gas issues).
TWO 15kg (33lb) bags of Lukullus is only 100 euro.
I'm all for giving your dog the best and all, but sometimes I feel like I can get unbalanced in this regard and end up spending more on food and getting nice stuff for them than I do for myself and my family.:rolleyes:
Which is why I'm looking to switch to something slightly cheaper but still good.
For some reason, Juno (who is a very very picky eater and skinny girl) can eat MOUNTAINS of Purizon and not gain a single ounce. I'd like her to gain a little weight because I've always found her to be a little too lean.
She gets a 1lb Raw meal in the morning, but in the evening, she could easily pack away 3 full cups of kibble and a stuffed Kong if I let her. And she still isn't gaining anything. AND she acts hungry afterwards, which is unlike her. So I'm wondering if adding rice to her diet would help.

text: i have a friend that wants to buy a hive but wants me to get it all ready and take care of it and harvest the honey in the fall for him, of course this includes putting the supers & frames together, buying & hiving the pkg of bees, medicating them, etc, etc. He gets to write it all off on his taxes if i give him a receipt, he's a farmer. My question is... how much do i charge. So far i've charged him $250.00 pretty much for 3# pkg bees ($67.00) and the hive parts, also i used my drawn-out comb that i could've used for my own bee pkgs that i hived. ANY suggestions would be great, i don't want to get jipped nor do i want to jip him, but at the same time...time is money.

Just as a sling supports a broken arm in plaster until it heals, so a 'Hug-A-Belly' supports the growing uterus which carries your precious baby.
Hug-A-Belly provides support for the growing uterus and reduces back and lower abdominal pains usually associated with pregnancy.
Made from a very comfortable blend of cotton and elastane, the Hug-A-Belly allows you to breathe and will stretch with you.
Hug-A-Belly is normally recommended to wear from 20 weeks to the end of your pregnancy. Of course it's fine to wear it earlier if you are carrying a big baby, twins or triplets or you feel the weight of your tummy earlier than 20 weeks. Wear it to suit you.
For more information about Hug-A-Belly, click "Visit Website".
