This thread is being started for my Friend Clayton.
Hi Clayton,
I have been reading back through the old literature looking for yellowbee characteristics for you these past few days.I hope some of what I have found is of benefit for you.
This is from American Bee Journal,1922, page 113, concerning, color of Italians:
'Italian bees in Italy are quite regular, but on the average show less bright yellow than the American-bred, selected yellow Italians. The leather color is more of an Italian quality than the bright yellow, the latter being nearer to the Cyprian.'
Characteristics gleaned from ABJ,1927, page 492 concerning Italian bees:
Italians are quieter on the combs than Carniolans...Italians build up slower than Carniolans and thus swarm later in the season a week or two later...Italians do not fly as far as Carniolans, but when a source of honey is located inside a mile or two, the Italians are the fastest and most persistent workers over Carniolans...Italians will gather from anything that yields honey in the fall...They do well on short, intense honeyflows...They have not learned to rob like the black races.
Gleaned from American Bee Journal, 1932, page 201:
Concerning comb honey: A colony of Italians of similar strength to Caucasians and under similar circumstances would hve occupied the entire super and instead of filling half the sections, complete and into a marketable condition would have had the entire lot of sections partly finished.
Italian queens are less easily introduced than Caucasian queens.
Italian bees also stand less crowding and are more prone to swarming than caucasians.
From ABJ, 1932, page 405:
The three-banded, leather-colored Italian bees are uniform in color, bred true to form,color and habits.Propolis is only used to fill cracks, not to be piled up in great chunks for a surplus.If handled as bees should be, that are very gentle and as near a non-swarming race of bees as is possible to find.
(It is noted that they have a drone problem)If you have pure stock you will know what they are going to do next. Unlike some other races, the drone problem is solved by the use of full sheets of foundation.
Will they rob? Yes, they will rob if the beekeepers is careless about leaving honey lay around when there is no honeyflow.
It is only natural for human beings to like the beautiful. Liking things beautiful at the expense of the useful was the main cause of the leather-colored bees being nearly discarded in favor of bees with a bright yellow color- the goldens with five yellow bands, the bright Italian with three very bright yellow bands. Then there are the goldens(so claimed) with from 3 - 5 yellow bands mostly just all mixed up stuff. The mother of these three varieties of Italian bees is the three-banded or leather-colored bee, the pure original Italian, the old-style natural bee that was not bred for color. (It is written here,'The queen breeder is not so much to blame for sticking yellow on the Italian. The public demanded it)
As I understand it, the leather color, used to describe the original Italian, means raw leather, not finished leather. I would describe the Italian bees as having three dull yellow bands, with two dull grey bands of hair on the two lower segments. The under part of the abdomen is ribbed with about 1/2 of a dull brown and the other half a dull yellow, terminating at the end in almost solid brown.
From ABJ, 1933,page 436:
Spring dwindling or 'delayed winterloss' is very common with Italians. Italians consume far more stores during winter than do caucasians.
From ABJ,1940, page 215:
The Italian bee is not at home in the vold region of North America, especially in the province of Quebec.Italian bees are in the process of adaptation rather than in the process of naturalization...Other dominant characters indicate that the Caucasian is basically resistant to American foulbrood, a disease to which the yellow bee is particularly susceptible.
From ABJ,1942,page 450:
I have often watched the caucasian bees making their way into the Italian hives to rob long before the Italians are even stiring...Caucasians do fly in slightly colder weather,...accounts for the fact that they usually get a full super of surplus honey to an average of a half super for the Italians in the combined early flows.
From ABJ,1951, page 58:
The Italians kill their drones earlier in the season than common (black) bees do.
The three anterior abdominal rings are golden yellow in front, and very dark behind; thus giving the three-banded appearance so much admired in these bees. The yellow color of the queen and workers varies not a little.Often we find them very dark, or leather-colored, and again, a beautiful bright-yellow.
The bees in the hive should all have three yellow bands.
The Italian bee is a thoroughbred - not a pure bee.
The Italian bee apparently derives its popularity in this country to a fortunate series of circumstances rather than from a greater merit over any other race of bees. The first bees in this country were the common black and in the search for a better bee after the invention of the movable comb hive the first race used was the Italian. An additional point may be made of the avialability of the races at the time the Italian bee became popular. In those early years 1861 - 1900 the home of the caucasian bee and the carniolan bee were comparatively inaccessible regions.The country of Italy was more civilized, more accessible, easier to obtain bees from. The path of least resistance was the easiest path to follow-thus the Italian bee.
Well, Clayton, I hope the above helps. As you can probably see, the Italians are not necessarily better, just pretty and easy to get.(my POV here)
So, how would you list the characteristics?
Comments on the above?
Hi Dee,
Here is a list for Italians:
1.bright yellow to leather color 3-5 bands
2.build up slower
3.short range foragers, yet good foragers
4.stand less crowding
5.gentle and quiet on combs
6.not prone to excessive swarming
7.will rob
8.spring dwindling is common
9.consume more winter stores
Let's discuss traditional methods of queen rearing. And how it would work today since some things have changed.

I was invited into a new Amish home that had a wonderful, large sewing room. The mother's older treadle was there, but so were 2 beautiful new parlor cabinets in a light finish. When she opened them for me, they held their daughters' wedding presents - new, modern machines in treadles.

Record Conditions for Redstone Winterfest
Up to six feet of snow has fallen this year in and around the high mountain community of Redstone, Colorado, creating banner conditions for the region's some 100 ice and mixed routes. With Redstone's annual Winterfest looming large February 14 through 17, there are bound to be plenty of routes for everyone, and once-in-a-decade routes such as Cold Heaven (WI5 200 feet) are in good shape and getting regular ascents. Other local favorites includingAvocado Gully (WI 3), Redstone Pillar (WI 4), Hayes Creek Falls (WI 1) and the Drool (WI 4+) are fat.
Winterfest, hosted by the American Alpine Club as part of their Craggin' Classic tour, and with clinics by Aspen Expeditions, gear demos by CAMP and Petzl, free sleigh rides and daily events including beer tasting, the Presiden's Day weekend event promises to be the best so far. Visiting climbers be sure to stop by the Rock and Ice booth and pick up a free copy of the latest issue and a guide to the local ice.

Two weeks in to October and the Girls are still bringing in pollen. And a Lot of it ! Thank goodness for the Goldenrod and all the other plants that bloom in the fall.
Two weeks in to October and the Girls are still bringing in pollen. And a Lot of it ! Thank goodness for the Goldenrod and all the other plants that bloom in the fall.
What we have here, is a failure to communicate !
Haven't seen bees in a couple of weeks.
Not Michael Bush. My name is Dan. Sorry for the confusion.
My bees are busy in the Goldenrod and Frost Asters. I'm going to open my hives tomorrow to check on things. The Goldenrod is past bloom in many fields here, but some are still blooming. Thank goodness they were frost hardy.
Ross Murray
Annville, Kentucky (eastern)
They have been working the asters hard here for a couple of weeks now too.
Mine are still packing it away.
Please visit my page, Thanks
Mine are going like gangbusters too, just working shorter hours. I have to come by the house early in mid day to see mine working now. Sun is below the trees in evening when I get home.
We have had several nights in the 30's, but only have seen frost once, lightly. A south wind is blowing this morning and it is supposed to climb to 80. I think I will peek in and see what is happening later today.
It was 19 this morning. Beekeeping is over for the year.
Go for those who still have some sort of nectar and pollen flow.
Check out our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/pearlcityapiary
I was surprised how much pollen mine were bringing in the other day. Even after three hard frosts.
USDA Zone 5B
yes, shorter days! and here in iowa they're still bringing in pollen from many asters. we also have a patch of late blooming perennial petal-less mums. bees as well as other insects are all over this plant.
Lovin' bees & beekeeping in Zone 5b
I still have a bit of dandelions going, some goldenrod that didn't get the frost and a few broccoli that aren't giving up. They were bringing in stuff today, very active probably getting ready for the big shut in that's going to happen soon
Something with bright orange pollen is still blooming here, and the girls are working it. They're clamoring for syrup, though.
Don't provoke a hive full of angry bees.
I checked on my hives on Sunday, 10/14/12, the girls are still bringing in tons of pollen (83 F). Their baskets are full of bright orange and also an ivory colored pollen. My main hive, #1, has stopped feeding and is nearly full (only checked upper deep) but no activity in the super (I was hoping for some comb building). Hives 2 & 3 were splits from the hive #1 on 28 July and are about 3/4 full in the bottom deep. Hive #2 has started some comb building in the upper deep and is feeding more than hive #3 that has not started building comb in their upper deep. I may have to feed 2 & 3 starting in Dec. but I hope they make it through the winter.
N5RWH - 7a
Goldenrod is in full bloom here on the Texas Gulf Coast and the ladies are working it hard. Wish I had a Beelining kit to track them down.
Julysun elevation 23 feet. 4 Hives, 2 years.
After 20 months I'm over a 20 hives and growing. See my videos! http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8fVrmUsyYlRuASdX6UQk1g
I'm near the Colorado River and the goldenrod is in full bloom around here. I tied the goldenrod in my ditches with hot pink caution tape so no one would mow it down! Hope it works. I had to put on another super on both hives, they were running out of room. I have a pasture full of it right next to the bee yard.
Goldenrod, a few dumb questions. First off I didnt know what it was till a couple of weeks ago either, although I have seen it for the past 50 yrs. My questions are, is this a nectar producing plant or pollen, can it be both? And as long as it has yellow blooms, is it still producing for the bees? Or is it still in bloom long after the pollen or nectar has stopped. Also I know things are different every where, but were I live I have noticed that some one has sprayed alot of posion in the ditch banks where it grows, mainly under the power lines. Do you think that it was the highwat dept, or the electric company?
Please visit my page, Thanks
Goldenrod pollen is bright orange-yellow, and as long as they are bringing in pollen I think they are also getting nectar.
The ivory colored pollen is likely morning glory (bindweed) or vining honeysuckle. I didn't think honeybees did anything with the honeysuckle until I saw them a couple weeks ago working over the batch on the hillside along the road to the pecan trees I gather nuts from in the fall. Seems another large bee (bumblebee of some sort) was cutting the floral tube open to get to the nectar, and the bees were following her and cleaning up. They were collecting off-white pollen at the same time.
Honeybees love bindweed too, although most of that grows in corn fields around here and it gets ripped out when the corn is harvested.
still lots of activity on oct 15th in iowa! we set out the extractor with the intent to clean it --- and had so many bees i had to get in my car from the passenger's side. which, i guess, could be a cleaning tip. interesting that several bees seemed to be fighting each other. tomorrow will be in the 70s so more activity yet to come.
thank you for the explanation of the white pollen - i wondered what that was!

The historic Devonport Post Office building is up for sale for only the second time in its 74-year history with potential buyers able to tender for either the entire property or for separate options within the distinctive art deco building.
The 1397sq m building, located on a 914sq m site at 10 Victoria Rd in the heart of Devonport Village, is being offered for sale by the Omega Trust through Caleb and Giovanna Belling and Nick Howe-Smith of Bayleys North Shore Commercial, with tenders closing on December 6.
Caleb Belling says the Omega Trust, headed by Devonport residents Eddie and Sharon de Heer, bought the property in a vacant and rundown state five years.
"Working with heritage architects Salmond Reed, they have undertaken an award-winning redevelopment of the building into a mix of retail, office and apartment space," says Belling. "Eddie has really enjoyed the process of rejuvenating the property and he's done a superb job in restoring it to its former landmark status.
"But he's not keen on being a landlord long term. Therefore, he's made the decision to sell at a point where there are still added-value opportunities available to new owners."
The building was purpose-built as Devonport's post office in the late 1930s in the art deco style of the time, and remained open until the early 1980s. In the early 1990s it was sold to Bryan Jackson who extended the building to house the Jacksons Museum, with the original post office converted into a restaurant and later a cafe. The property had been vacant for a number of years before Omega Trust acquired it.
"The building had been languishing, largely unoccupied for some time and needed an injection of new life and vitality," says Eddie de Heer.
Omega Trust's major overhaul of the property included repainting the solid concrete exterior in its original 1930s colours, removing all non-original partitions, highlighting the kauri flooring and ornate ceiling details and constructing a new glazed atrium and stairwell to the rear.
Seven retail units ranging from 21sq m to 72sq m and a 130sq m cafe, plus common areas and amenities, were created at ground level. Three office suites were developed on the first floor along with a two-bedroom holiday apartment, designed to cater for visitors to Devonport, which was completed last year. The original post master's apartment at the front of the property, which had another floor added to it in the early 1990s, has been retained and used by the de Heers as their residence.
The redevelopment also included a major upgrade of infrastructural facilities including air conditioning, CAT 5 data cabling, new electrical and plumbing reticulation, security and fire monitoring systems as well as a web-based music system.
The renovation received the New Zealand Institute of Architects (NZIA) 2009 Auckland Architecture Award in the heritage category together with a Registered Master Builders Association 2009 Commercial Project Silver award.
In their citation for the NZIA awards, the judges had this to say: "For many years the value and significance of this wonderful building as the heart and soul of the Devonport community remained undervalued. The skill of the Salmond Reed team and Omega Trust has been to balance the heritage and art deco values of the building with the need to perform an ongoing commercial role within the Devonport High Street. They have achieved this with masterful success. The Old Devonport Post Office has been given a second chance."
De Heer says the restoration was carried out in consultation with a retail architectural specialist, a heritage planner at the former North Shore City Council and the Historic Places Trust. In August the building was registered as a Category 2 historic place.
Caleb Belling says there are several options available to tenderers. In addition to offers for the whole property, tenders will also be considered for the commercial portion of the building, comprising the retail and office tenancies, or these together with the recently completed 82sq m holiday apartment.
"A significant amount of preliminary work has been undertaken to achieve a unit titled subdivision," Belling says. This includes a fire engineer's report, a draft subdivision plan and estimates of the costs of the works, council consents and fees.
"A new owner of the entire property could obviously pursue the opportunity to obtain resource consent to unit title it and perhaps sell down parts at some stage in the future. Or alternatively, the vendor would consider selling just the commercial component of the property, subject to unit titles being obtained."
All the ground floor retail units and the cafe are leased to a variety of tenants, mostly on three to six-year leases. The largest of the first-floor office suites, comprising 158sq m, is tenanted as legal chambers. These commercial units are producing total net annual income of just over $205,000.
Belling says one of the office suites, totalling 71sq m, is vacant and should add close to $20,000 of further net annual rental income, if leased.
The two apartment complexes are being offered for sale with vacant possession. The holiday apartment provides visitor accommodation at a nightly rate of $250. "Thousands of local and international tourists are attracted to the seaside village of Devonport each year, however there is a shortage of high-quality self-catering apartment style accommodation in the area," Belling says.
"This apartment was developed to fill a gap in the market but at present the only form of marketing is the website www.numberten.co.nz so there is considerable potential to grow the income from this aspect of the property. Alternatively, a new owner could rent out the apartment on a long-term basis, with a rental appraisal indicating potential income of $650 to $750 per week furnished."
Belling says the apartment, which is air conditioned and has a gas fire, is available either on an unfurnished or furnished basis.
The large, main residential apartment is approximately 367sq m in size, including a 50sq m garage plus an additional 120sq m of decking, and has four bedrooms, two bathrooms, three large living areas and a rooftop balcony. It has not been renovated but Belling says its art deco decor is in keeping with the rest of the property and it has expansive views over Devonport township and across the water to Auckland's CBD. A rental appraisal has indicated an income return of $1000 to $1200 per week.

JNPR: Pac Crest Cuts to Hold, Prefers FFIV, MLNX
In a note to clients this morning, Pacific Crest's Brent Bracelin cut his rating on shares of Juniper Networks (JNPR) from Market Perform to Sector Perform, writing that there are "see few catalysts until visibility into the next major network upgrade cycle improves."
Bracelin, who has a Sector Perform on Cisco Systems (CSCO) as well, recommends investors buy Mellanox Technologies (MLNX) or F5 Networks (FFIV) instead.
"In four years since launching coverage, JNPR has gone from $17 to $44 and back to $17, but it now faces more economic, competitive and secular risks than before," writes Bracelin.
Juniper has already underperformed sales in the router market, writes Bracelin, and things may only get worse next year as priorities shift further away from Juniper's bread and butter:
Router spending has increased by just 8.2% annually since 2007. Juniper's router business has grown by 2.9% over the same period, negatively impacted by outsized exposure to core routing that is growing five times slower than edge. Higher exposure to core routing, coupled with increasing competition from Huawei and Alcatel-Lucent, has resulted in a 500 basis point decline in Juniper's router share to 17.6% from 22.6% in 2007 [...] Increasing priority on smart-network infrastructure (offload, optimization, policy enforcement) in 2013 could continue to overshadow major upgrades to router capacity. At AT&T and Verizon, for example, wireline capex has declined for the fourth consecutive year.
Bracelin is modeling $4.55 billion in revenue next year and $1.02 in EPS. That is below the consensus for $4.62 billion and $1.11.

Madras shelter dogs getting warmth for holidays
Electricity to be installed at outdoor kennels
MADRAS, Ore. - There's an extra step volunteers and employees of Jefferson County Animal Control must perform, in addition to cleaning kennels and feeding dogs: breaking ice out of buckets each morning, so the dogs have water to drink, instead of licking an ice cube.
"That's how it is when it's 5 degrees out there, their entire bowl freezes," Three River Humane Society Executive Director Stephen Drynan saidThursday.
Right now the dogs are sheltered in outdoor kennels -- a harsh reality, when it's bitterly cold and the harshest parts of winter are still ahead.
"They do get cold, and we will be bringing in some of the smaller dogs at night," Drynan said.
But soon cold pups will be warmed, and soon the shelter will be called the Three Rivers Humane Society.
A new name, new management -- and a new buzz, literally.
"We got our last $4,000 for our 'Heat the House Project,' a project to bring electricity to the kennels, so we can have heated dog beds and heated water bowls," Drynan said.
As the new executive director, Drynan hopes to take the shelter in a new direction -- the main goal, getting more dogs adopted.
"A new business plan, No. 1, of marketing the animals and getting them out there," he said.
Long term, it's all about getting all the pups out of the weather for good.
"Our ultimate goal will be to have a new building," he said.
But for now, eliminating 'pupsicles' and Popsicles is a good first step.
Drynan said the electricity should be installed at the facility within the next couple of weeks.
During that time, the shelter will be closed until Dec. 6th.
The new 'Three Rivers Humane Society' will have a grand opening party on Saturday, Dec. 7th from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
You can come tour the shelter, get pet photos with Santa and enjoy refreshments.
Bottle and can donations will also be accepted.

Daleman has the triple loop she did it at the Jgp in chemnitz:-)
Daleman has the triple loop she did it at the Jgp in chemnitz:-)
Happy for Osmond - solid FS, but she skated it better at the Challenge in December (all jump elements clean better). Such a reliable competitor.
I think Daleman is a big talent - at only 15, I hope she's survived the worst of puberty.
I was disappointed by the marks that Chatrand received (and her bronze medal) - when I see her skate, I see awkward awkward awkward. Awkward posture, awkward/stiff jumps - how she received positive GOE on any of them is a shock.
Lacoste was still worthy of the bronze medal - even with that performance. Her ease of movement, speed and general flow far surpassed Chatrand and Daleman. Jump wise, she was on par with Chatrand if the judges hadn't rewarded those crappy stiff jumps.
Are there reasons and scenarios in which Osmond could beat other senior ladies? Absolutely. But Osmond having beaten Suzuki isn't a good reason, particularly when Suzuki is not having a great season...
Osmond hasn't even skated a clean FS internationally yet this season, and wasn't able to do it at Nationals. That is not to say she can't skate a clean FS at Worlds, but it's not set in stone. She showed she's not immune to pressure/expectations and skating perfectly in both segments in an important competition is hard to do.
In any case, she did have a great overall performance at Nationals. Her transitions, speed, and performance ability are all standouts to me. However, sometimes she rushes through her transitions, and I'd like to see her sell each move a bit more. If you're just yanking your leg up above your head, as she does after her lutz and a spread eagle, it doesn't really add anything to the performance. That's actually the kind of move that Sasha Cohen sold very well and it really enhanced her performance.
As others have pointed out, her footwork was slow and she lost steam after the 2A. Nothing unfixable but while Osmond showed her potential here, she also showed some weaknesses as well (still getting a flutz call).
Asada? 3 clean triples so skating is only about triples?
In any event, the 4CC in Osaka will give us a much clearer picture on where they stand.
The 9.5 is a red herring more than anything else. Osmond's PCS didn't average at 9.5 - that score is merely an outlier. If Krislite's point is that Osmond will not get 9.5 at Worlds, that's hard to say and frankly, irrelevant, because there are always outliers within a panel but they don't mean much. Rather, it appears Krislite's point is that it is unlikely that Osmond's PCS score will be similar or almost equal at Worlds. That is actually hard to say because she only averaged in the 8s. Is getting 8s for PCS a realistic prospect based on the historical scores of the last 4 World Championships? I think you will have to agree the answer is yes. Therefore, not getting any 9.5, which will likely be thrown out anyway in the averaging process, will not have any significant impact on the likelihood of her duplicating a similar overall PCS score at World.Krislite didn't say anything about Osmond not being capable of winning Worlds at a young age, just the statement that Osmond wouldn't be getting 8-9.5 range at Worlds. I would agree with this--in doing a check of the last 4 World championships, zero 9.5s were given out to the ladies. Osmond is uber-talented and an exciting young skater, but it is not a put-down to say that she's not getting up to 9.5s at Worlds when neither Kostner, Asada, Kim, Ando, etc have ever gotten 9.5s there.
I don't think anyone is doubting whether she can do a Double Axel or not. Just the same as when Yu Na Kim fell on a Double Axel. For all intended purposes, she accomplished all her Triple jumps in the LP and yesterday was probably her most stressful event of the year. Everyone expected her to win yesterday, whereas at Worlds, the country is not going to expect her to win or even medal. In fact, if she were to place top 10 or 5, I think the media will report that as a resounding success. Her ability to handle stress was amazing to me. She looked so relax backstage yesterday, I am still in awe about that. Most other top skaters had some tension and you could see they were focusing. Osmond was like - this is fun, I am going to put down a show... I wouldn't worry about whether yesterday was technically a clean skate or not, with or without the Double Axel since her ability to land the 2A is not in doubt and unlikely to repeat again. Julianne Seguin who many thought could take Silver crumbled under pressure at the same event whereas she skated almost perfect at the Challenge as well. What's clear to me is Osmond is very gifted in handling pressure and the Canadian Championship was a very good test to show that - all one needs to do is contrasting her and Julianne Seguin, the before and after is crystal clear.Osmond hasn't even skated a clean FS internationally yet this season, and wasn't able to do it at Nationals. That is not to say she can't skate a clean FS at Worlds, but it's not set in stone. She showed she's not immune to pressure/expectations and skating perfectly in both segments in an important competition is hard to do.

I couldn't believe the epic meltdown of Seguin.. images of Laetitia Hubert popped to mind.. I actually expected her to be behind DeSanctis with that skate, even though DeSanctis fell more than once too.
Now, of course, she can win the World Title--that I don't dispute. She is very talented and apart from her Flutz her jumps remind of Yuna (she even avoids the 3Loop!).
A top ten finish for Katelyn at worlds is a very realistic goal.It was nice to watch the ladies last night and enjoy the performances.For the first time in many many years there is young girls who can perform and have the triples also.
Does anybody has the link for the SP and FS of Gabby. I couldn't see them cause i'm in Europe:-/
It seems the Canadian girls have been flying under the radar, unlike the long hyped Russian Babes. I am very glad about this as they now burst on the scene at later ages of 15 and 16. Keep going, young Ladies!
I actually appreciated Amelie's skating much more this year but sadly it's too late for her as the young jumpers join the Senior competition.
Thanks Nadster, I didn't realise Daleman's birthday was before the cut-off date.
So I guess it will be:
4CC - Osmond, Chatrand, Lacoste
Junior Worlds - Daleman
Worlds - Osmond

Avaaz.org helped earlier this week to get a pesticide ban in the EU. Now they are helping us in the US. Please sign and share.
Quietly, across the USA, millions of bees are dying, threatening our crops and food. A new bill this week could ban one group of deadly pesticides and save bees from annihilation, but only if Congress feels the sting of public opinion.
Americas bees are facing a chemical Armageddon -- just last week, 50,000 died in a single car park in Oregon after being exposed to pesticides, and last winter over 50% of all Californias bees died. Leading scientists blame one group of pesticides called neonicotinoids. The evidence is so compelling that the entire European Union has begun banning them, and the Save America's Pollinators Act could impose a ban on these deadly poisons in the US.
Now it's up to us to get our politicians to save America's bees. Big Agriculture and powerful chemical companies like Bayer are already lobbying hard to stop the bill, but if we show an overwhelming public support for a ban, we can counter their influence. Sign the petition on the right and tell everyone -- when we reach 250,000 signers, we'll take Avaaz's giant inflatable bee to Capitol Hill to tell Congress to save our bees.

Лучший B-12 из всех, что пробовал.
Easy to administer tablets.
Reviewer3203438发表于 11月 10, 2011 | 已验证购买
These dissolve instantly and no unpleasant taste. They seem to disappear within minutes meaning they are entering the system completely, unlike some that take about an hour.
Superior Source MicroLingual Methylcobalamin B-12
Reviewer2072252发表于 10月 11, 2011 | 已验证购买
The micro tablets dissolve almost instantly and have no lingering after taste. I immediately felt the difference a boost in vitamin B-12 had on my system: no more brain fog, no more lethargy, and no more angst. I purchased two bottles: the second one for my mom. She also felt an immediate boost in energy and noticed her mental processing is becoming clearer.
ultra fast melt
Reviewer2882806发表于 11月 11, 2012 | 已验证购买
The pills are definitely small and red. I am currently using 1000 mcg once or twice a month. I was taking 5000 mcg once a week, which gave me insomnia and prostate pain. High levels of B12 apparently increases prostate cancer risk. Without blood tests, it's hard to know the right dose. These are very low in sugar. The bottle has a screw cap with cardboard in the cap. There is an absorbent in the bottle. It was messy opening the bottle - the cotton piece pulled out a few pills and red dust got all over the bottle. The foil seal peels off fairly clean with no sticky residue. I might try capsules next time, since I don't think sublingual tablets are necessary for most people.
Great alernative to cyanocobalamin

See my other review! They make a product that looks the same and comes with 100 pills per bottle instead of 60, bottles just a few cents different in price. I pick the bottle with 60 ct. because the B-12 come from Methylcobalamin, my research says that is the best. Sly changing the count instead of adjusting the price to keep both at 100 ct., just want to point out the difference. Don't think you can find a brand that disloves even close to these. So much easier on your body, and you get more from each dose.
Great b 12 product

Nice way to get b12 without the fillers, etc. So far I really like this product and I've used it for about a month now.

Can not tell any difference when using this. Nothing at all. I have ridges on my thumbnail and when I take B-12 my nail will start to smooth out and the ridges get smaller - not with this B-12. They got larger and started to get some on my other thumbnail. No energy, no nothing, could not tell I was even taking this.

For hundreds of years the apes have served as funhouse mirrors for what the human species once was, or perhaps might have been had evolution taken a different course. Among the four species of great apes, the chimpanzees have received the lion's share of attention as models of early humanity. Until the 1960s, however, when Jane Goodall first set out for Tanzania, we didn't know much about wild chimpanzees. What Goodall found shocked us: Chimpanzees were not only extremely clever, they also had complex societies and adept tool-using abilities, and they loved raw meat. In the decades that followed, field researchers observed other "human qualities" in wild chimpanzees: intercommunity warfare and lethal territorial aggression, cooperative hunting for other mammals (with the spoils of the hunt ritually shared and used as the bargaining chips of political and sexual barter), and the manufacture and use of tools made of plant products and, at some sites, of stone! These studies turned our view of chimpanzees (and of ourselves) on its head.
That chimpanzees are not vegetarian pacifists came as a surprise in anthropological circles when Goodall first reported the chimps' omnivorous appetites. Some scholars even alleged that the lethal aggression seen during encounters between neighboring social groups was aberrant behavior, occurring only in animals disturbed by human contact. But as the field data accumulated it became clear that the brutal side of chimpanzees is quite real. Males strive to ascend a rigid dominance hierarchy and on reaching high rank wield their political power in brutal ways. Sexual coercion and beating of females who do not submit to male desires are routine. Males patrol the perimeter of their territory, attacking and sometimes murdering their unwary neighbors. Chimpanzees at two study sites in Tanzania (Gombe National Park and Mahale National Park) were observed to fission into two separate communities, after which the larger community in each case systematically exterminated the smaller community. Such "warfare" has been seen in only two primate species, humans and chimpanzees.
Chimpanzees are also efficient and ruthless predators, consuming hundreds of prey animals including monkeys, antelope and wild pigs. Their attacks on their favorite prey, the red colobus monkey, are brutal and dramatic. The hunts often involve hand-to-hand combat between a chimp and a monkey, a match that is usually won by the chimp. Small-bodied juveniles are killed by a bite to the neck, whereas adult monkeys are thrashed against the ground or a tree limb. The meat is distributed in Machiavellian fashion by high-ranking males who share with allies and kin, but withhold the prize from rivals. They also use meat to entice ovulating females to mate with them—an orgy of meat eating and sex straight out of Tom Jones.

MEASURING THE NEW WORLD: Enlightenment Science and South America. By Neil Safier. xviii + 387 pp. University of Chicago Press, 2008. $45.
In 1735, a team of French and Spanish scientists traveled to South America as members of the Geodesical Expedition to the Equator. Their goal was to help determine the true shape of the Earth: Was it flattened at the poles and bulging around the equator (as the work of Isaac Newton and Christiaan Huygens suggested), or was the bulge at the poles rather than at the equator (as the French Cartesianists would have it)? To settle this matter, the Paris Académie des Sciences commissioned two metrological expeditions: one to Lapland, near the North Pole, and the other to Quito, near the equator. Measuring the length of a meridian arc of one degree at each of these two sites and comparing the results would resolve the issue. As it turned out, Newton was correct.
The equatorial expedition entailed unprecedented international cooperation, because Spain had long forbidden foreigners to travel in its American dominions. It also provided a wide European public with rare information about equatorial South America, the fabled land of the Incas, the Amazons and El Dorado. For the next nine years, the team traveled widely, conducting geodesical measurements. Its members also gathered information about a territory that Europeans still knew little about 200 years after the Spanish conquest of the Inca empire.
Measuring the New World, by Neil Safier,is a deft, thoughtful examination of what happened to European Enlightenment science in an American setting, and of how South America was depicted in Europe as a result of this exploration. What makes Safier's book stand out from other works on scientific travel is the way in which he masterfully expands the range of sites, practices and participants. This is not the story of an expedition, but rather a study of the stories the expedition yielded through words and images, in multiple languages and in many different places.
Safier's original insight, which he richly mines, is that traveling was but the first step of a long and involved process that entailed crafting and publishing textual and pictorial accounts, handling material collections and responding to accounts both in manuscript and in print. The creation of knowledge about South America took place not only in the New World but also in European print shops, scientific societies, gardens and museums, and it involved a vast cast of characters of various nationalities, many of whom had not taken part in the voyage themselves.
The expedition yielded a wide range of materials, some addressing the trip itself and some focusing on the region more broadly. Safier devotes one chapter each to four intriguing sources,all of them manufactured in Paris: the best-known travel narrative to emerge from the expedition; a map of the province of Quito; a historical account of the Inca empire; and the depiction of the Amazonian region in the Encyclopédie of Denis Diderot and Jean le Rond d'Alembert. All of these works showcase two central epistemological methods at work at the time: accumulation and abridgement.
Chapter two explores the first of these sources, the best-known account of the expedition—the Rélation abrégée d'un voyage fait dans l'intérieur de l'Amérique méridionale, which was published in Paris in 1745. Its author, Charles-Marie de La Condamine, returned from the voyage with a collection of maps, manuscripts, letters and stories that he had gathered from local informants. He drew on all of them for the Rélation abrégée and also made liberal use of previous publications—the expedition's traveling library had occupied 21 trunks of books, from which La Condamine culled anecdotes and at times excerpted entire passages, word for word. Adhering to the notions of scientific authorship current at the time, La Condamine portrayed the material in the Rélation abrégée as being the result of his own personal experience and eyewitness observations; he underplayed the assistance he received from local residents and the contributions of previous explorers. Compiling, editing and narration proved as important to La Condamine's text as the voyage itself.
Something similar happened with cartographic material. In one of the book's most satisfying chapters, Safier takes us behind the scenes in an 18th-century cartographic atelier, where we can trace the creation of the Carta de la Provincia de Quito y de sus adjacentes (1750). We follow the map's manufacture from a draft that incorporates a plurality of authorial and editorial voices, through the negotiation of revisions, to an image that is printed in various versions for different audiences. In Safier's fascinating account of the ways in which geographical, religious, historical, ethnographic and administrative information is distilled into cartographic statements, the map emerges "not as a fixed and burnished image of geographical space but rather as the product of social and material itineraries."
Such itineraries often transformed editors into authors, reshaping materials to the extent of rendering them unrecognizable. That was the case with the 1744 Paris edition of Histoire des Incas, rois du Pérou. The original book, by "El Inca" Garcilaso de la Vega, the son of a Spanish conquistador and an Incan princess, was published in 1609. To produce the new French version, an unnamed editor at the Parisian Jardin du Roi reshuffled the original text as he saw fit, compressing, rearranging or deleting material and adding new footnotes and bracketed passages. Accusing the original text of "disorder" and "confusion," the editor thoroughly transformed it. The revised book showed less interest in Inca history than in contemporary French concerns about botanical and agricultural organization and productivity—a scientific and political issue in which the Jardin du Roi was highly involved.
Likewise, a final chapter examines the abridgement and redistribution of the expedition's materials for inclusion in the Encyclopédie. La Condamine's appropriation of the work of local informants and previous authors to produce his own narrative suffered a comparable fate at the hands of the encyclopedists, who distilled personal anecdotes and experiences that were embedded in a narrative into universal truths splintered among 85 short articles. Safier draws a parallel between the mapping of equatorial South America and the mapping of human knowledge in the Encyclopédie, characterizing both as Enlightenment projects that aimed "to parse knowledge into its component parts and reconstruct the pieces in an abridged form suitable for easy digestion by a broad, learned public."
Measuring the New World analyzes not only these varied accounts of South America but also contemporary reactions to them. "The journey of a philosophical traveler," Safier reminds us, "did not end with the publication of a printed text. Instead, after publishing a travel account, the author's attention necessarily turned to the ever-precarious itinerary of his literary reputation." And precarious it proved indeed.
Readers in Europe and the Americas criticized La Condamine's Rélation abrégée, questioning his epistemological authority—given his limited knowledge of indigenous languages and the length of his stay in South America—and suggesting that he must have relied on ignorant informants. La Condamine's appropriative authorial practices found their counterpart in readers' appropriative uses of his text, portions of which they selectively accepted or rejected based on their own affiliations and the uses to which they could put this information.
Another account of the expedition, published in Madrid in 1748 by Jorge Juan and Antonio de Ulloa, the two Spanish naval officers who participated in the expedition, drew the ire of an anonymous critic, who wrote a heated denunciation of the account's pejorative treatment of the indigenous population of Quito. This critique in turn elicited a response from a second reader, who defended the travelers' vision. The debate between these two readers about ethnographic description, like the critiques of La Condamine's narrative, highlights the existence of differing views about the proper ways to observe, understand and represent American populations.
Measuring the New World offers a captivating account of the "challenges of extracting meaning from an entangled corpus of natural knowledge," skillfully reconstituting the material practices and social relationships of scientific exploration in a transatlantic Enlightenment.

Though my Jango is not 100%, he's wearable; I still need to finish the harness for the "stubby" jetpack and I'm waiting on my LSFU Vest. So, in the meantime, to go with my wif'e Christmas present to me, an eFx Ep.V Stormtrooper Helmet, I decided to start a TK. Ordered a set of Armor from FISD (whitearmor.net), picked up a hasbro blaster and a DoopeyDoos conversion kit, and I
m on my way....
I know it's not easily accepted, but I'm taking a few "liberties" with the blaster. It won't be cannon, but I feel it will be a decent representation. My biggest peeve is that I get some very smooth, clean lines. In regards to the armor, I have absolutely NOTHING to reference in regards to other kits or builds I have seen in-person. So, IMHO, this kit is beautiful! It came packages extremely well and I believe is from Armor Master. I obviously have some work to do on the side seams, but I think it's coming along well. It's difficult to hold in place on my limbs, measure, mark and cut, when I am the only one working on it. The biceps are currently drying with E-600, and I'll soon start the forearms and the legs. I have the boots already (can't remember the maker, but they are NOT CA Boots), as well as the neck seal, gloves, under suit, belt and holster; several of the items ordered from TROOPERBAY.com. Anyhow, what are your thoughts????
By the way, I am a BIG FAN of casual jeans day on the Death Star!!!

The mission of the Lesley University Diversity Council is to
cultivate a learning environment, in all our programs, which acknowledges and
appreciates the inherent worth and dignity of every person.
HistoryIn the summer of 1993, Lesley University received a generous grant from
a private donor to promote diversity and multicultural education. The Lesley
University Diversity Council was formed with these funds. At the heart of the
Diversity Council is the goal to create a campus living and learning environment
that prepares Lesley students to become positive forces for diversity in their
professional lives and within their communities.
Margaret McKenna,
the president of Lesley University at the time, appointed a Special Assistant to
the President for Affirmative Action, to coordinate The Diversity Council and
promote strong campus-wide support. An executive committee composed of staff,
faculty, and administrators, formed the steering committee, which in turn
created six sub committees to address diversity issues across key areas:
recruitment and retention, curriculum and instruction, institutional assessment,
quality of life, diversity training and development, and student diversity
In 1995, The Diversity Council worked with a private
consulting firm to conduct an institution-wide culture audit. The audit reviewed
recruitment and retention documents and statistics, held discussions with focus
groups from all areas of the Lesley community, and also conducted personal
interviews. The audit helped clarify where Lesley stood around issues of
diversity and what further efforts were needed.
As part of its
mission, the Diversity Council periodically examines curriculum. Beginning in
the summer of 1994, Lesley began offering curriculum development workshops and
stipends for faculty to revise or create courses and curricula that incorporate
diverse and multicultural perspectives. Particular attention has been paid to
pedagogy, assessment, and attitudinal change. By reforming the curriculum,
Lesley helps prospective teachers, human service professionals and managers
become more aware and effective in an increasingly diverse world.
an effort to effect change within the culture of the Lesley community, The
Diversity Council has organized several workshops for core and adjunct faculty,
staff and administration. These workshops explore the topics of cultural
identity, exploring cultural patterns in the workplace and hiring practices,
managing with a diverse perspective, and creating a multicultural
In October 1996, after a year of research and
discussion, Lesley University announced a new Spousal Equivalency Policy. This
policy seeks to promote equity related to sexual orientation by acknowledging
same-sex relationships and offering equal health, dental and tuition remission
Lesley has also made recruitment and retention of faculty,
staff, and students who are racially and ethnically diverse people a
In 1984 a study showed that racially and ethically
diverse people made up 5% of employees and in 1994 the number increases to 17%.
In subsequent years the number decreases to 14.5%. In 1987 students who
are racially and ethnically diverse people made up 7.5% of the undergraduate
students and in 1994 the number increases to 15.9%. In subsequent years the
number continues to increase to approximately 17%.
In their meetings,
the six committees generated ideas and action plans to carry out the work of the
Diversity Council. Projects developed include: compiling a film library that
reflects multicultural perspectives, training of trainers to lead workshops on
multicultural and diversity awareness, examining accessibility to the University
for people using wheelchairs, and expanding diversity training for adjunct
faculty and diversity training for new employees.
The Diversity
Council is striving to ensure that Lesley University reflects America's
increasing multicultural population. As a result, Lesley strives to become an
increasingly safe and inclusive community.

The physics minor at UW Bothell gives students a strong background in the quantitative analysis of nature and is a natural extension to many of the current and upcoming majors on campus, to include Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mathematics, Chemistry, and others. A physics minor will strengthen your fundamental knowledge and give you a leg up as you pursue future career opportunities!
The physics minor includes courses on thermodynamics and statistical mechanics, quantum theory, the physics of solids, and astrophysics. Mathematical physics will be of interest to students who seek to expand on their math skills and learn how physicists use math to solve problems. Solid state and condensed matter physics will be particularly useful for Mechanical Engineering and Electrical Engineering majors.
Figure-Particle tracks from a subatomic collision.
To take quantum mechanics is to learn the secrets of the atom, and is quite a jarring experience for many. It's unintuitive nature and bizarre results never cease to amaze the instructors, as well as the students! It can then be applied to many systems to include solid state, chemical, and others.
For many there is a natural awe and curiosity about the universe around us. We offer astronomy, astrophysics, and cosmology courses for those interested. The last few decades have been called the "Golden Age" of cosmology, and many of the results are startling.
Figure-Black hole jets.
For future teachers there is much need for knowledge of introductory physics. The physics minor is a great path towards becoming a physics teacher and attaining a physics endorsement. One can pick and choose courses to suit your desires and needs as a future educator.
For those interested in the biological or social sciences you should take the BPHYS 11x series. These require only college algebra:
For the BPHYS 11x series you are not required to take the lab simultaneously with the lecture, but it is strongly recommended.
For those interested in the physics minor, you should take the 12x series:
These require Calculus I for BPHYS 121, Calculus II for BPHYS 122, and Calculus III for BPHYS 123.
20 credits from below are required for the minor, while BPHYS 224 Thermal Physics is required and counts towards those 20 credits.
Course prerequisites are below the bold courses, and course descriptions can be found here.

Friday was raining yet again (it has rained every day we have been in Czech R.), and the river was too high so we couldn't go rafting. Instead mom and I climbed the tower of the castle, which has an amzing view over the town. We had lunch at "the donut shop", a little cafe with amazing cheap food! Lunch for two: 2 bucks. In the afternoon we chilled out and took it easy, I dyed my hair purple (not as drastic as last years piercing)
Last stop of the evening was the dance club. We got there a bit early as since it doesn't close till 6am, the party doesn't get started too early. By the time we got our drinks and got settled the dance floor was filling up. We didn't stay too late though as half of the crowd were excessively drunk tourists who decided to demostrate their pole dancing skills. And the music selection was hard to dance to. In the end the girls all left, and left our token male Antonio to carry on the party!
So, I had a wonderful day! Cesky Krumlov is a great place to chill out, it has a great vibe and everything is really laid back. I think it helped ease me in to my 30's!! Actually I feel really good, and am looking forward to seeing what the next step is and what is in store for me in the coming year!

ORLANDO, Fla. -- The Tennessee soccer team surged in the second-half on goals that resulted from two beautiful set pieces by Cheyenne Spade and numerous amazing saves by Julie Eckel to upset No. 17 UCF, 2-1, on Friday night in Orlando.
Tennessee improved to 2-1-0 while UCF fell to 2-1-0. Katie Lenz scored the equalizer in the 54th minute and Hannah Wilkinson netted the winner in the 81st minute. UCF led at the half thanks to a 21st minute score by Jennifer Martin.
Eckel showed why she is considered one of the top goalkeepers in the SEC and improved to 2-1-0 with the win. She had six saves, most in stunning fashion.
"Julie Eckel is an absolute stud," UT head coach Brian Pensky said. "She made some big-time saves. Then Cheyenne's free kick changes the game. One kick, one play, one moment can change a game - whether it was Julie's saves keeping us in the game or out team defending or Cheyenne's goal."
Tennessee's defense survived several UCF attacks as the Knights owned a 17-7 shot advantage on the evening and a 11-3 edge on corner kicks.
Early in the second half, UT had a great offensive opportunity when a UCF foul was committed outside the left side of the box. Spade sent in a nice kick about six yards in front of the goal, but Wilkinson's header was high of the crossbar.
On a free kick about 10 yards outside the UCF box, Spade sent in an outstanding set piece into the box. Lenz tapped it in with a header for the equalizer in the 54th minute. The goal evened the game at 1-1 and was Lenz's first on the season.
In the 62nd minute, Eckel made a spectacular save. Lena Petermann sent a ball into the box from the far left side that got bounced around in traffic before Eckel made the save, diving to her left on the ground.
Another UCF offensive barrage followed in the 67th minute. Marissa Diggs fired a shot off the crossbar from outside the box. Kayla Adamek's rebound attempt was smothered by Eckel, keeping the game locked at 1-1.
In the 78th minute, Spade played another beautiful free kick into the box from the left side. The ball was headed in by Caroline Brown, but offsides was called on Tennessee, negating the score.
In the 81st minute Wilkinson had a running header to give UT the match-winner. Spade took a free kick from the exact same spot she had on the offsides call. This time, Wilkinson zoned in on the ball near the far post and a running, diving header punched the ball into the right side of the net. The score was Wilkinson's first score of the season.
The first half played pretty even through the first 20 minutes, but Martin's goal in the 21st gave all the momentum to the Knights, who controlled possession until halftime.
The Knights fired the first shot of the game in the eighth minute as Kayla Darden rocketed one in the box. Eckel came up with a save by the far post.
In the 11th minute Tennessee sophomore Susan Ferguson fired a shot from about 25 yards out on the far side. The shot carried well, but landed right into the arms of Maldonado.
In the 16th minute, Carleigh Williams was issued a yellow card for a foul at midfield.
Fifteen seconds into the 21st minute, Spade took Tennessee's first corner kick. Her ball went in at a low trajectory and was knocked away by the UCF defense. The Knights charged the other way immediately.
UCF took a 1-0 lead later in the 21st minute when Sophie Howard found Martin on a cross to the left side of the box. Martin punched in the score from outside the box just past a diving Eckel.
With 13:20 left in the half, Brown had the ball in the UCF third when a random female ran onto the field. Stadium security chased down the individual and the clock was stopped. A drop ball followed to determine possession.
At the half, UCF held a 10-1 advantage on shots and a 5-1 edge on corner kicks.
Tennessee returns to Knoxville on Sunday for a 1 p.m. match against James Madison. There will be a free live video feed with Brian Rice on the call, Tori Beeler Watson providing analysis and Dani Klupenger as the sideline reporter.

Bend fire officials offer tips for safe Fourth of July
Fireworks sales started Sunday in Oregon
BEND, Ore. - The Fourth of July is right around the corner, and fireworks sales began in Oregon on Sunday.
It's a fun time of year for many, but it can also be dangerous.
Bend Deputy Fire Marshal Cindy Kettering wanted to share a few tips to keep people safe during festivities.
Kettering said one of the biggest problems is often illegal fireworks. Fireworks that fly, travel or explode more than six feet on the ground or 12 inches into the air are illegal in Oregon.
Fireworks commonly called bottle rockets, Roman candles and firecrackers are illegal.
She said fire officials will be checking permits of fireworks stands around Bend, and people must purchase their fireworks from permitted retailers.
Kettering says it is especially important to keep fireworks, lighters and matches away from children.
In Oregon, it is legal for children 16 and older to light fireworks, but Kettering said in Bend, you must be older than 18 to buy, possess or light a firework.
She said children and pets should be kept away from lighting areas, and it's a good idea to keep a bucket of water or hose nearby.
Kettering also said you should never re-light a dud firework. Wait 15 to 20 minutes, then soak it in a bucket of water before disposal.
Despite efforts to keep people safe, Kettering said they always respond to dozens of fireworks-related calls around the Fourth.
"Every year. we respond to a lot of incidents where fireworks are involved," Kettering said. "And that can be anything from injuries to burns to grass fires, or even structure fires."
She said the most common fireworks-related emergency call is typically for brush fires.
Last year, there were 161 reported fireworks-related fires in Oregon, resulting in 26 injuries and more than $250,000 in property damages.

Digital channels, online social activity, and mobile technology give business buyers unprecedented purchasing power. Just look around your next sales or customer meeting, count the number of smartphones and tablets, and see if you disagree.
To capture the attention of the perpetually-connected business buyer, we see B2B CMOs taking on significantly broader, and often unfamiliar, responsibilities. To learn exactly how top marketers respond to these new world challenges, Forrester teamed with the BMA to conduct a joint study about the pace of change, skills required, and degree of collaboration needed to deliver the always-on experiences business buyers now expect.
Kathy Button Bell, 2013-14 BMA Chair, and I presented the findings from this study of 117 marketing leaders during the BLAZE conference last May. I'm now following this presentation with a new report that takes a closer look at the evolving role of the B2B CMO -- a report that we would like to share with our friends at the BMA and with you. To get a complimentary copy, please visit this site to register for and download the report.
What did we find in the survey responses? That it's never been a better time to be a B2B marketer!

Senior defensive back Andy Snyder of Berrien Springs, Mich. (Berrien Springs HS) has been selected to play for the American Football Coaches Association's Division III all-star team that will represent the United States against the Mexican National Team in the 2004 Aztec Bowl.
A four-letterman and two-time All-MIAA honoree, Snyder this past season led the Flying Dutchmen in tackles (95). He intercepted six passes, blocked two punts, returning one for a touchdown, and ran back two kickoffs for touchdowns, one a school-record 90 yards.
He is one of 42 NCAA Division III seniors from around the country who will make up this year's team. Hope alumnus and former Central College head coach Ron Schipper will coach the team for the eighth consecutive year.
The game will be played Saturday, Dec. 11 in Cancun, Mexico. The Aztec Bowl is the traditional season-ending game for Mexico's college football season. The game has been played 33 times since 1947 with the last seven contests featuring the United States-Mexico match-up. The United States is 6-1 in the series. Mexico's lone victory came in last year's game, which was also played in Cancun.
Snyder becomes the fifth Hope player invited to play in the Aztec Bowl. Others were 1997 Brandon Graham (running back), 1997; Todd Tester (defensive back), 1999; J.D. Graves (quarterback), 2000; and Brian Adloff (wide receiver, 2001.

Reviews for this host's other properties
Terrible value for money, even discounted. The apartment itself is ok, the marble floor is kind of fun, but it's not very comfy and it lacks plenty of little things that make a place homely (no internet, no coffee machine, no kettle...). It is a lot smaller than indicated, that is the 145 square metres include the terrace, which has a nice view but is quite windy. It is indeed well located, the neighbourhood is very charming and it's directly opposite the Casa Cuesta, a fantastic place to eat in the evening.
The service is absolutely terrible, after having anounced our arrival time 2 days in advance, we called an hour earlier while on the road and got told we would have to wait an hour because the host couldn't make it to the apartment in time. We had our 4-month old baby with us so it was pretty much out of the question. Fortunately the cleaning lady could wait for us in the apartment and give us a key. Thumbs up for the cleaning lady, she was very nice and helpful!
So we never met our host, which might have been for the best as I was quite pissed of.
Good and large apartment on the edge of a beautiful park and within walking distance of the center of Seville. Cafés with excellent tapas, supermarket and bank are around the corner. The reception lady of the apartment only speaks Spanish, but you can contact an English speaking lady.
Goed en groot appartement aan de rand van een mooi park en op loopafstand van het centrum van Sevilla. Koffiebarren met uitstekende tapas, supermarkt en bank zijn om de hoek. De ontvangstdame van het appartement spreekt alleen Spaans, maar je kunt contact opnemen met een Engels sprekende dame.
Magnificent location of the apartment, close to everything in the center but quiet. Definitely would repeat.
Magnífica situación del apartamento, cerca de todo en el mismo centro, pero tranquilo. Sin duda volvería a repetir.
This small apartment is located on the roof of the house. It has been lovingly set up, but really very small, especially the bathroom and the shower. The use of the roof terrace is great, but unfortunately for us was a bit too cold in November. Overall, the apartment is more suitable for the summer months. Although heating the room was not really warm. The location of the apartment is quite good. Approximately 15 minutes walk to the shopping area.
Das kleine Appartment befindet sich auf dem Dach des Hauses. Es ist liebevoll einrichtet, allerdings wirklich sehr klein, insbesondere das Bad und die Dusche. Die Benutzung der Dachterrasse ist super, doch war leider für uns im November etwas zu kalt. Insgesamt eignet sich das Appartment eher für die Sommermonate. Trotz Heizung wurde der Raum nicht richtig warm. Die Lage des Appartments ist ganz gut. Etwa 15min zu Fuß bis zur Shopping Meile.
Big and quiet apartment, so close to the city center.
All perfect, great place for location and all that is generally flat, very well.
Todo perfecto, lugar estupendo por ubicación y todo lo que es el piso en general, muy bien.
Great place to stay in Sevilla and a lovely host (Eva). The roof terrace is a nice extra asset. Lots of great local bars and restaurants in the area. Definitely recommended.
The studio is like in the pictures. Small but very cozy. We've had a great time. At the Port's very good atmosphere :)
El estudio es como en las fotos. Pequeno pero muy acogedor. Lo hemos pasado muy bien. En el Puerto hay muy buen ambiente:)
Carmen and her husband are very personable, we felt these days in your apartment very well, thank you! Klaus
Carmen und Ihr Mann sind sehr sympatisch,wir haben uns in diesen Tagen in Ihrem Apartment sehr wohl gefühlt,danke !!Klaus
The study is super cute, well maintained and with many details. The truth is that it is a great place to spend a few days in Seville, and conveniently located in the center.
El estudio es súper coqueto, muy bien cuidado y con muchos detalles. La verdad es que es un gran sitio para pasar unos días en Sevilla, además muy bien ubicado en pleno centro.

In this award-winning documentary, the first-time directors take a detailed look at the apartheid analogy commonly used to describe the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Narrated by Alice Walker (author of The Color Purple), Roadmap to Apartheid is as much a historical document of the rise and fall of apartheid in South Africa, as it is a film about why many Palestinians feel they are living in an apartheid system today, and why an increasing number of people around the world agree with them.
NAOMI KLEIN, Author and filmmaker says:
"Roadmap to Apartheid is a harrowing exposé of Israel's unique system of official discrimination."
Suggested Donation $10

This is a clear case of a blogger trying way to hard to make a story. Most other outlets have stopped reporting on this "triangle" (coughs). It's over. Kae is doing her thang, Rihanna is getting ready for her tour, and..future cell block 8 resident…I mean Chris….well let's just hope for the best. I'm not going to be mean, it's sunday…..LOL. *grabs kid and heads out the door*.

@sandra they won't stop as long as people click on the stories and comment, even if it's just complaining how played out it is. they don't wanna see it dead. they need the stories. and they don't care about the content. just you talk and a chance to follow up cause that's got more longetivity. they need the views running and they can't wait. so they will always make up some sh*t from nowhere or link random pics together with their own interpretation. they can't do just a day to say "rihanna looks good" and that's it.

HOLLYWOOD LIFE!!!!! 1. Stop posting stories about a SUPERSTAR(RIHANNA) with a #NON-FACTOR(KT). 2. STOP TRYING TO KEEP KAREERBUILDER RELEVANT. 3. Wait until you get a real story to write.

Chris you are a good person do not let anyone bring you down. Always look good and do your best.

You will always be my son.

So the Family Values Party elects an adulterer?
He demonstrated a lot of courage following his heart despite the consequences it would have on his career. Washington needs more of these type of people.
Mark Sanford wins House seat in S. Carolina
Nice to see conservatives stand up for moral values and all that jazz.

Yeesh. The family values party, indeed.
So the Family Values Party elects an adulterer?
Of course, one could argue that Huma, Hillary, and Silda were more "pro-marriage" in that they stayed by their husbands. And that just gets us back to how the culture has changed. It's a fascinating thing. Speaking very broadly as there are exceptions all over the place. It seems like liberal political couples work harder to save their marriage after a sex scandal. Again, that's just an impression. I haven't tabulated all the cases. But it certainly seems like conservative voters like it more when wives refuse to tolerate their cheating husbands. Does that make conservatives less pro-marriage? Or does it mean that liberal political couples care about politics above all else? Or do they place less stock in the value of fidelity (it's just sex, who cares?). It seems to me there are a lot of ways dissect that. For now, suffice it to say the times have changed.
And it's worth noting that what has changed the most isn't the supply of moral politicians, but the demand for them. Ambitious, selfish, amoral men have always been attracted to politics. At least in terms of his sex life, John F. Kennedy was a disgusting man who, among other things, pimped out an intern. Other presidents, Republican and Democrat, cheated on their wives, too. Such behavior is not new. But that was all kept from the public eye — by the press, by the establishment, etc – in part because it was understood that if the public found out, the politician's career would be over. Times have changed and the public doesn't demand — or demand sufficiently — either the myth or the reality of morality anymore.
I think it's fair to say that conservatives still care more than liberals about maintaining the old standards. And that creates a real dilemma. In an era of moral lassitude, how much do you insist on moral propriety in politics? Since sin and temptation are bipartisan phenomena, should conservatives be at a constant disadvantage? I don't think there are easy answers there, or at least I can't think of what they might be. Asking Republicans to vote for Colbert-Busch in order to punish Mark Sanford strikes me as a hard sell. Why support the party you disagree with politically just to punish a man you agree with politically? Colbert-Busch — whose political hero, of course, was John F. Kennedy – wouldn't even answer directly whether she would vote for Nancy Pelosi as speaker. On matters of political integrity, it seems to me, Sanford was hardly the clear worse choice.
But one thing I really resent is the tendency of liberals to demand that conservatives stick to standards that liberals reject entirely. If you have no brief against the Clintons, the Weiners, the Spitzers, or the Kennedys please don't pretend you're offended by the Sanfords. Indeed, when Democratic politicians get caught in scandals, the response from liberals is invariably, Why can't you conservatives lighten up? Who are you to judge? Etc. It is only when conservatives are caught in such messes, that liberals walk over to the conservative side, pick up our standards, and beat us up with them. Any talk of lightening-up or forgiveness is immediately denounced.
It's absolutely true that conservatives need to wrestle with the question of what we should expect from our politicians. But I'm not sure liberals have anything worth listening to on the subject.
I'll take a prostitute who defends the constitution over a celibate communist any day
And so will 99% of your party. But they love to tell you how moral and christian and how much better they are than you
Why is this a "republican vs democrat" issue? Both sides have shitty human beings as politicians...no shocking, nothing new.
Uh, I've been a registered Libertarian for over 20 years
I think that the liberals / democrats are not as hypocritical on these kind of issues.
not as hypocritical
And so will 99% of your party. But they love to tell you how moral and christian and how much better they are than you and blah blah blah . But when it comes down to the voting booth all that BS goes right out the window.
what do they say about throwing rocks in glass houses?
On June 24, 2009, Sanford resigned as chairman of the Republican Governors Association, after he publicly revealed that he had engaged in an affair with María Belén Chapur, an Argentine woman to whom he is now engaged.[4][5] He was later censured by the South Carolina General Assembly following a State Ethics Commission investigation into allegations that he had misused state travel funds to conduct his affair.
Sanford is also a real estate developer and a medical administration officer in the U.S. Air Force Reserve.[6]
fter graduating, she completed a South Carolina State Ports Authority business development internship, and worked for Associated Maritime Industries Inc, as a liaison between the AMI and the U.S. Federal and State Governments.[17] She then worked as the Regional Director for Sales and Marketing and the Director of Business Development at Orient Overseas Container Line (OOCL), where she was responsible for international maritime relations and South Atlantic and North American sales.[18][19] She left OOCL in 2008, when she was hired to be the Director of Business Development at Clemson University's Restoration Institute, described by the Charleston Post and Courier as "the school's corporate matchmaker" for the University's development projects for wind turbine testing, water studies, and renewable energy.[17][20] Colbert Busch also works as the Director of Sales and Marketing Clemson's Wind Turbine Drivetrain Testing Facility.[21]
Colbert Busch is a founder and former member of the Executive Board of Directors of Charleston Women in International Trade, and former member of the College of Charleston's Business College Alumni Advisory Board.[22] She's also served as chairwoman of the 2006 S.C. International Trade Conference, the chairwoman of the Maritime Association Port of Charleston and is board member of the Charleston Metro Chamber of Commerce.
