This morning, however, i logged on and the buttons at the upper right of the screen to maximize/minimize/close any window are now gone! My mouse pad settings are different too. Whenever I click a menu and move the mouse to click a menu item, the menu closes! And the last thing i noticed is that the open windows are no longer represented in the top bar as they were. I've searched through the settings to try to correct these issues with no success, but i'm more curious about why this may have happened. I haven't changed anything setting-wise in the past week or so!

Missing link found!
By Doctor G
from Newfoundland, Canada
About Me Educator, Maker
I have been ordering and assembling Arduino projects for over a year but always found that the instructions assumed you had experience with arduino. Even the "instructional kits" were not really meant for a beginner. This book "Getting Started with Arduino", was the missing link I needed.I would recommend this book to anyone planning on learning this stuff!Thanks,D YoungInstructor
This book will be of good benefit.

Good Beginner
By SGNB221
from Undisclosed
Getting Started with Arduino is a good way to do just that. The book gives a good basic tutorial on electrical circuits, troubleshooting, and programming. It is focused on the practical application of those fields and doesn't cover with much depth the concepts of those fields.However, it does give enough information for a beginner to produce and expand upon circuits and gives the experienced a good introduction to use the Arduino system in their projects. All in all this is a good beginning book for anyone, especially young ones, to get started with Arduino.

Getting Started with Arduino
By Eric
This book is an introduction to the open-source electronics prototyping platform known as Arduino. Arduino is a single-board computer that can be the basis for interactive electronics projects like art installations, interactive environments, and appliance controls. A project is created by connecting different sensors, LEDs, motors, etc. to the board. Software programs can then be written in the Arduino programming language running on a host computer (Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux) and uploaded via USB. The book is less than 120 pages and is a quick read, but serves as a perfect entrance to the Arduino world of programming and to the growing Arduino community on the World Wide Web. An Arduino board can be built from the open-source schematics available on the Arduino website (http://arduino.cc/) or can be purchased pre-assembled (for less than $40 USD) from one of the many vendors available.The book's back cover states that the reader will learn about several topics, like interaction design, physical computing as well as the basics of electricity and electronics. While this is true to a point, some of the most compelling material in the book is Mr. Banzi's explanation of the mindset from which Arduino grew and which surrounds it now. I enjoyed his stories about taking apart different things as a child and some of his experiences with different technology. I remember wanting a "50-in-1 Electronics Kit" from RadioShack that never seemed to materialize under the Christmas tree, despite countless reminders to my parents over the course of several years. With Arduino, there is no upper limit to the number of projects possible. As Mr. Banzi says, the word that best captures the spirit of Arduino and this type of new media is "tinkering" and it is the tinkerer's willingness to start on a particular journey without a goal, but with the willingness to play, plain and simple, with the attached components, that yields the most interesting results. An improvisatory approach to the creation of projects is further underscored by the convention of referring to Arduino projects as "sketches." Mr. Banzi's passion for the subject matter comes shining through.There are only a handful of actual projects in the book and they range in complexity from periodically lighting an LED to the more bizarre but elegant project of using a WWW newsfeed to control a lamp. However, even in the simpler examples, the book explores the mindset necessary to deal with the various analog and digital inputs and outputs of the Arduino board. In fact, the reader is shown how to "think" like the board to further their own project development.The book assumes the reader can find their way around a computer with some ease. One can type in the programming examples or can in fact download them from the Makezine.com website. Most people who would be interested in this topic are probably well versed in electronics or computers and would not find it too daunting. There are only a few errata on the O'Reilly website. I found only one point in the book where I would have formatted it differently. This is during the explanation of the setup for computer drivers for Windows and Mac OS X (there is no such coverage for Linux). The last two paragraphs on page 24 are under the driver setup for Windows, when in fact they are applicable to both operating systems. I was paying attention mostly to the Mac OS X instructions and was surprised to find on page 25 that the Arduino interactive development environment (IDE) had already been launched, but I hadn't been instructed to do so.This book is certainly worth the price and would probably be passed on to a friend once a little experience with the development paradigm has been gained. There are countless programs, free examples and documentation of other user projects on the WWW. Also, the vendors listed on the Arduino website have more challenging peripheral components one can explore or that can provide inspiration for further projects.

text: New 2013 Captiva LTZ owner.. I have a few questions someone may be able to answer. I bought the car used (11,000 miles) from a dealer and it came with the basic 2 button with panic remotes. Upon scrolling through the ,menu on the dash, I saw a setting for 'remote start'. If I buy a modern Chevy 3 remote with the remote start button. will it work without buying anything else for the captiva (like some type of module)? Also Im looking for a factory looking in dash NAV unit to replace the factory radio. I saw a few on ebay from Hong Kong, that look like they were made for the Captiva. Has anyone here had any real-world experience with the quality of these.. or is there some other styles to recommend? Not looking for a pioneer or kenwood, but a factory looking replacement. It particular - Im looking at this one . but not looking to install the 'extras' that this comes with. Basically just NAV, radio/mp3, and blutooth, maybe tie in the factory rear camera if it can be done easily. Looking forward to exploring this forum... Looks like it can be a great place to be. , James from Texas

Naomi Neal, Kathryn Stresak, Dorian Gomberg, Ed Vlcek, and Brad Krautwurst are Shimer students participating in the Shimer Internship/Mentorship (SIM) Program. They regularly post updates about their internship experiences.
This post is from Kathryn Stresak, who is interning at Growing Power in Chicago, Illinois.
Hello again! Kathryn from Growing Power, here. It's been another week on the farm, and I'm finally getting into the swing of things. The other interns have all arrived and it's awesome to hear about all the different reasons for their respective interests in GP. Unfortunately though, I haven't gotten to talk with them much because we are all spread out through the city, hard at work on our farms. My permanent location is at the Grant Park farm, of which I posted about in my last post. I feel very lucky to get a location with so much artistic flair, as well as foot traffic. I will even be giving tours during the Taste of Chicago! Y'all should come to check out the farm if you can! It's located in between Michigan and Lakeshore on Congress Parkway. This week I have also started doing markets on the west side of Chicago in areas with a high need for fresh food. We will be doing markets on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays with a different location each day. For these markets, Growing Power partners with Fresh Moves, a mobile produce store on a renovated bus!
Today I began the day at 5:30 to get trained at the Green City Market, one of Chicago's biggest farmers' markets. Then at 9:30 am, I headed back to our Iron St. headquarters to get more produce for the Westside Market, which was at Laramie and Hirsch. By noon we were on the road again to the Park & Rec center. I met up with my Youth Corp crew, an awesome group of teenagers who will be helping me out for the markets, and we set up camp. I left the market early, at 3:30, but we had already some great sales for the day. It was encouraging to see how many people were excited to buy fresh food and gave everyone encouragement.
I have an insane schedule, often covering miles and miles on bike to get to where I need to be. I bounce between being overwhelmed and overjoyed by the experience, often in the course of an hour. Tomorrow is GP Iron Street's One Year Anniversary party. When I look at everything they have built up in such a short amount of time I realize that it's all due to the crazy schedules we all have. It's a surreal experience to go from Shimer, where we put such emphasis on verbal dialogue, to Growing Power, where there is an equally strong emphasis on physical action. I realize, having been immersed in them both, how important both are needed for a healthy, strong community. Hopefully I will figure out how to strike a balance.

Where I stayed
So, the boys dropped us off at the entrance of the park and showed us around the map room to prepare us for our journey into town. There is a truck that drives in at 2pm, but it's 11am now, so we've decided to walk the 7k from the road to the beach. Hiking through the desert should make arriving at the beach that much more worth it. Except we ran into a couple of townies with a broken down truck on our way and they offered us a ride in the back of their truck once it was fixed- to which we happily accepted
We passed two people as we crossed town to a hostel where we got our own room right on the beach with breakfast for $40USD. We spent the rest of the day walking around the town, which was dead, climbing rocks to spy on seals, looking for washed up sunken ship treasures in the completely empty beach, and walking across sand dunes. It was so quiet and peaceful. That night we had some drinks at the hostel with the owner and other guests. The owner used to have a restaurant here too, and cooked amazing looking meals for his friends that were staying over. His friends were a couple and their two little girls from Montevideo. The woman had started Uruguay's first free magazine detailing upcoming events when she was younger than we are now. The magazine made its profits mostly from Marlboro ads, but when Uruguay outlawed cigarette ads, it bankrupted (but she got out of it before that). Now she runs her own hostel in Montevideo. Another guest at the hostel said he worked in social policy for employment opportunities in Amsterdam now but had started as a case worker. He said that the more he works the more he learns how interconnected everything is- education, employment, homelessness, welfare- but that most people who make policy didn't start at the bottom and don't understand how the policies they make can play out or not play out given the connection between so many socio economic factors..
From what we can tell, days here are spent watching the waves and the seal, drinking mate and beer, and smoking marijuana. We asked our hostel owner about the abundance of weed that seems to be around and he tells us that here, in Cabo Polonio, "we don't use drugs, we smoke them."
The next day we were supposed to leave, but the sun was out and it was so nice and relaxing here, so we stayed another day walking around the town, which was dead, climbing rocks to spy on seals, looking for washed up sunken ship treasures in the completely empty beach, and walking across sand dunes. That night we drank a few beers with the owner an he pointed out something glowing in the water off in the distance. Every several seconds a green light would appear in random places and it was coming closer to shore. Once it reached the shore you could see this glowing algae all around your feet in the water. It was like something out of Avatar. So we decided to go for an ice cold swim. Amazing experience.

A házigazda egyéb ingatlanjainak értékelései
Probably the best location in Prag.
The Apartment was really spacious and modern interior.
Highly recommended!
The apartment is very nice, well equipped and the situation is great!
Definitely recommendable!
The apartment was nice and in a great location, with lots of bars and restaurants around. It's about a 10 minute walk to old town. The negatives were that the tram right outside of your window made for an early morning, and other loud guests woke us up at 4am singing in the hallway. There is also only one shower/bath and it's in one of the rooms. So if you're staying with 2 couples, you would have to knock on their door to take a bath. But the host as great, and very accommodating for an early check in for only 15€. We enjoyed our stay!!

University of Colorado Boulder Provost Russell L. Moore today announced the formation of a search committee to lead a national search for a new dean of the College of Music. Jim Williams, dean of the Libraries, will chair the committee.
Dan Sher, who announced his resignation in August, will complete his 20th year as dean of the College of Music in June 2013 and then return to teaching in the college.
"The College of Music assumes a central role in shaping the academic landscape of our campus, and in advancing our Flagship 2030 mission," Moore said. "As we move into the future, it will be critical that the college continues to have strong and visionary leadership. For that reason, we are casting a broad net in this search."
Williams said the committee's goal is to bring candidates on campus for interviews in the early part of the spring semester. The new dean would then begin his or her duties prior to fall semester 2013.
In addition to Williams, members of the search committee include James Austin, associate dean for undergraduate studies in the College of Music; Alejandro Cremaschi, keyboard; John Davis, jazz studies; Judith Glyde, strings; Christina Jennings, woodwinds; Jay Keister, musicology; Daniel Kellogg, composition; Gary Lewis, orchestral studies; Rebecca Maloy, musicology; Patrick Mason, voice; William Stanley, brass-percussion; and Keith Waters, music theory.
Additional members include Lissy Garrison, CU Foundation; Regina Houck, staff representative; Carolyn Keyes, graduate student; Becky Roser, chair of the College of Music Advisory Board; and Kirk Ambrose, from the Department of Art and Art History who will serve as a non-voting arts and humanities representative.
Questions, nominations and comments may be directed to Williams at email@example.com or 303-492-7511.
Jim Williams, 303-492-7511

Rugby boss Steve Tew says his organisation is looking at more opportunities to get leverage from the All Blacks brand this year.
The New Zealand Rugby Union is working with staff from United States insurance giant AIG to explore ways both parties can capitalise on the sponsorship.
The AIG deal, which has unofficially been put at $80 million over five years, was announced last October and resulted in the insurer's logo controversially being put on the front of the All Blacks' and other New Zealand teams' jerseys.
Tew said late last year the union was still in the early days of its relationship with AIG but would work on projects to make the most of it in keen rugby nations where the firm had a strong presence. A union staffer was working in AIG's head office for six months as part of a reciprocal deal.
"We're very pleased with the partnership - clearly there was a degree of nervousness and some people were not happy."
While there was some anger in social media about the game being sold out, there was no blazer burning - "not even virtually".
"We can't nurture it unless we have the revenue coming in."
The All Blacks brand has been extended to New Zealand Maori and the IRB Sevens World Series sides to broaden its reach.
Tew was at pains to stress the national team is not just about money.
"While we accept the All Blacks are a brand and a commercial entity, first and foremost they are a sports team. Some of our fans get a bit narked if we're just talking about commercial things like brands - they think we lose sight of the fact that it's a sport, we don't."
As current "guardian" of the game, the NZRU's most important task was to ensure the pipeline of players and coaches remained strong.
Last year the union entered into a joint venture with British-owned All Blacks Tours to exclusively provide official All Blacks supporters' travel, replacing Williment Sports Travel.
The new firm is owned by sports hospitality firm Sodexo and the Mike Burton Group and the union will get a proportion of profits.
More ventures were under investigation but for every 10 ideas only one would typically be acted on.
"You can look at hospitality, you can look at tourism where we might take the All Blacks brand but we'll do that incredibly carefully."
The union, owned by its co-operative members - 26 rugby unions - was risk averse, said Tew.
He said the co-operative set-up and the conservative accounting that went with it meant there was no official brand value attached to the All Blacks.
However, global specialist Brand Finance in 2011 put the value of a World Cup-winning All Blacks side at $108 million, putting them on the fringe of Europe's top soccer sides, although still dwarfed by Manchester United, then with a brand value of $720 million.
Annual revenue of around $100 million-$110 million-plus was made up roughly equally by broadcasting, sponsorship and licensing and gate revenue and match fees.
"We would like that figure to increase reasonably steeply. The biggest opportunity we have is in broadcasting rights, which will crank up later in 2013."
Signs were good for the broadcasting deal - which runs until 2015 - as in many markets the value of sports content rights had increased markedly, including in the UK where British Telecom had bid for both soccer and rugby.
BT Vision is emerging as a serious rival to BSkyB as Britain's premium sports broadcaster. The company is paying close to $2 billion to become a major player in soccer and rugby.
Tew said the biggest development was likely to be different platforms to distribute rugby, including tablets and smartphones.
The adidas deal will have been worth about $500 million over 20 years when it expires in 2019.
A good part of the adidas and AIG sponsorships was hedged at favourable rates given the continued strength of the New Zealand dollar.
Tew said one of the biggest challenges was finding ways to ensure international fans became customers.
The side had two million fans on Facebook, most overseas, but it was mainly the New Zealand core fans who paid to watch the All Blacks live or on television and bought licensed products.
Another challenge was getting the balance right between maximising the commercial benefits players could bring by working with sponsors and ensuring they rested.
"The reality is that we are working our players on and off the field at their maximum - you can't get the balance wrong between performance and commercial work."

RE: st: Suggestions for Second Edition of A Visual Guide to Stata Graphics

RE: st: Suggestions for Second Edition of A Visual Guide to Stata Graphics
Wed, 25 Jul 2007 20:06:16 +0100
That's helpful.
Thanks for the compliment. Every Stata guru has Stata gurus. Mine here
are Bill Gould and Vince Wiggins of StataCorp.
Bill set up the original -graph- with various biases; most he knew about
and a few he didn't. -graph- before 8 had one positive bias: it was very
flexible for anything like a scatter plot. Thus one grew up wanting to do
stuff, and it was easy whenever that stuff could be done as a special kind
of scatter plot. (Even a histogram can be drawn in such a way: the data
points are the bar corners; you just need to join them up in one special
order....) This was, also, a limitation, but being obliged to think
in terms of scatter plots and their kin has many benefits.
Vince is principal architect of Stata's new graphics. He has taught me
several nice tricks over the years. At his feet I sit and on his shoulders
I stand. He'd find the former position more comfortable than the latter.
Vince (with Alan Riley and others) created a system whose potentialities
we are still discovering. Excellent programmers create a program that
does exactly what they want, with few bugs and a few nice features.
Outstanding programmers create programs that can do even more than
they wanted or imagined.
OK, let's try to solve some problems.
On your first, I don't have a clear idea of your
data structure, but if there is a big hint it's to
give up on -graph dot- or -graph bar- or -graph hbar-
when things get too complicated and recast the problem
using -twoway-. (The similarity to the <8 situation is
not accidental.) Perhaps you are doing this already.
On your second, I get a clearer sense of what niggles.
My hint here is that often you don't to change anything
so long as the axis labels tell the story you want.
(Axis titles and other text must also tell the truth as
you want the reader to see it.)
Suppose you have a response that to Stata is a proportion in
[0,1] but that you want shown on a percent scale. Then something
yla(0 0.2 "20" 0.4 "40" 0.6 "60" 0.8 "80" 1 "100")
gets the labels you want and what the data are, really,
underneath is not important. Something like this can be
a little tedious, so one shortcut is -mylabels- on SSC
with which you can do
mylabels 0(20)100, myscale(@/100) local(labels)
... , yla(`labels')
That is, you tell -mylabels- that you
1. want certain text labels to be shown
2. have data that is on a different scale, and
give the mapping from one scale to another
3. want the labels put in a local macro.
It can be a close call, but this often saves
typing in the long run, especially with scales
more complicated than percents or proportions,
partly because in practice one often gets
slowed down by silly little typos when you do
it the direct way.

#AskPlayboy: Jenny Mollen on Threesomes

Ever wondered how to stage a Threesome? Jenny Mollen has it down to a science.

This is gonna sound kind of crazy, but my girlfriend recently proposed the idea of a threesome (the good kind of threesome, the kind with another girl), and I'm horrified. It's not like I haven't considered a threesome as part of a wild sex fantasy, and I'm definitely into it, but now that I'm faced with the reality of actually doing it, I'm not sure that I want to. The mechanics of it seem crazy; I just got comfortable with the idea of satisfying one girl, now I've got to worry about two? That's a lot of work for me. But this is every guy's dream, right? And she proposed it! Do I just need to put any awkward inadequacy issues aside and man up, or do I tell her that the prospect of this is scaring me shitless? Should I just watch them have at it so I don't have to worry about underperforming?
A: Take it from me, threesomes with someone you actually care about are hard! A wise whore once said to me, "There are three things that could possibly happen here that I want to prepare you for: One, the girl could get jealous, causing the guy to freak out and lose his erection. Two, the guy could get jealous, causing him to freak out and lose his erection. Or three, everybody could be having a great time but the slightest wrong vibe could cause the guy to lose his erection.'
If you are going to do this, please use a professional. Friends or acquaintances just make things messy. If you are in a relationship with one of the people in your ménage, the undercurrent of what is actually going on psychologically can be hard to navigate and the tides tend to shift fast. Take a Viagra and just calm the fuck down. You aren't expected to be some sort of gladiator in the sack. I'm sure part of the appeal for your girlfriend is performing for you. I can also tell you that she is getting off on your being uncomfortable. My favorite thing about having threesomes with my husband is that it is never his idea. Oscar Wilde put it best when he said, "Everything in the world is about sex except sex. Sex is about power." If she wants to fuck somebody with you, it's about power, most likely hers. So let her lead it. There is literally zero pressure on you. Just play it cool, DON'T ACT LIKE YOU WANT IT (because then, of course, you won't get it) and enjoy the ride. Also, if you want further advice on what NOT to do, enjoy this blog post at my personal expense: thesmokingjacket.com

OK I have both, but it is not out of hand yet. I have done the Diatomaceous Earth around the hive, boric acid in political sign material (plastic) sealed with Crisco (stapled to base board), CD traps on top of frames in both brood boxes (1/4 c. soy flour, 2tbs. boric acid, 2 tbs. P'nut oil, & 1/8 c. Water), and have nematodes in route. Any advice on what else to do, while staying chemical free as possible? Since Houston does not have winters like up North our problem is a little bigger due to longer summers. 2 June was first hive start, but I do not want to loose my hive.
Thanks in advance.

Felice Mario Boano, son Gian Paolo and Luciano Pollo established their coachbuilding company 'Carrozzeria Boano' in Grugliasco in 1954 after Mario had left Carrozzeria Ghia in 1953. Mario Boano and Giorgio Alberti had bought the Carrozzeria Ghia ten years earlier when their friend Giacinto Ghia died (1944).
Boano started building coachworks on Alfa Romeo chassis, but soon moved to other brands like Abarth and Ferrari. Boano sold many cars to famous people like Henry Ford Jr. and President Peron of Argentina.
The first Boano-bodied Ferrari was a one-off 250 GT cabriolet in 1956 and after they built 63 examples of their Ferrari 250 GT Coupe between '56 and '57, of which the design very much resembled the Pininfarina 250 GT Europa prototypes.
In 1957 Mario Boano had the opportunity to set up and run the Fiat styling center, so he slowly wound down production and closed his firm. He passed the work to a key employee and son-in-law, Ezio Ellena, and his former partner Luciano Pollo. The new company's name became 'Carrozzeria Ellena'. Ellena continued production of the Boano Ferrari 250 GT.
The 63 Boano-built 250 GTs were characterized by their low roof line. The Ferrari 250 GT 'Ellena' series were characterized by their high-roof line, except for the first eight with serial numbers 0679 to 0697. These continued on Boano's low roofline with vent windows.
Carrozzeria Ellena closed its doors in 1966.

I built my own queen cell frame and the distance between the wax cup and the next frame is 1 - 1 1/4 inches depending on the wax cup. Is this enough space or should I rebuild it and give it more. I know I won't be able to put a protector on with that space, but wondering how long the cell might get. Thanks for your input.


text: What a great idea! Many years ago we gave our parents and grandparents books to write their memories. They said there was nothing worthwhile writing. NO! So I wrote down as they talked and am so glad I did. Grandma telling about her parents coming to America, Grandpa telling about his early jobs, Aunt Anna's stories of being a midwife (self taught) on the prairie, Dad growing up with 16 brothers and sisters, Mom being a little girl helping in the General Store, on and on. Now I record (on the computer) my own memories of one-room schools, endless canning on sweltering summer days, etc. Not exciting, but maybe my great-great grandchildren will find it interesting. Better print it out as who knows what kind of computers they will have then.

Mila Kunis: "I Wanna Break Free"Thursday, June 24th, 2010
For years, audiences have closely identified Mila Kunis with the role of teen nymphette Jackie Burkhart in the sitcom That '70s Show. Mila has been trying to break away that role for a while now. This hasn't happened until she played Rachel Jansen in the 2008 movie Forgetting Sarah Marshall, co-produced by Judd Apatow. She had originally auditioned for another Apatow film, Knocked Up. Although she did not get that part, her audition led to the role in Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Kunis said that the improvisation done in the film was challenging, but "the best kind of challenging… a great exercise".
Forgetting Sarah Marshall got positive reviews and was a commercial success, grossing over a hundred million worldwide. The sexy actress' performance in the film was well-received; Joe Morgenstern praised Kunis for her "fresh beauty and focused energy" in The Wall Street Journal, while James Berardinelli wrote that the young hottie is "adept with her performance and understands the concept of comic timing". She got nominated for a Teen Choice Award.
In an interview, Kunis said: "I give Judd Apatow so much love for hiring me and letting me do something different, letting me break free of That '70s Show, letting me show that I could do something outside of Jackie." For more Mila Kunis naked photos, just click on the link.

i don't really like college football that much and you really never know what to expect from rooks. so can someone please explain to me what they see in the players possibly available and taken by us. imo we need lb 10-10 oline 8-10 bpa over 1 of those would have to seem like complete steals such as prince and austin only time will tell. and no way in the underworld i would draft a qb atm.

I've known about this video (http://vimeo.com/23178333 part 1 of 2) for quite some time, but hadn't taken the time to watch them until last night. First, I want to thank Michael for sharing his vast knowledge with us and also the Prince William Regional Beekeepers (thanks Karla) for going to the effort to make this video series publicly available. I'm teaching a short course this weekend and plan to reference some of the great ideas presented by Michael. I really appreciated the historical references to Brother Adam near the beginning and the follow-on reference to Kirk Webster. I believe that the techniques presented in this 2-part series are applicable to anyone interested in breaking a package treadmill and wishing to become a more efficient and productive beekeeper.
I do have a couple of questions (hopefully Michael will find this thread)
1. One of the big messages I took away was: don't take resources from your biggest booming colonies to throw at your worst performing colonies, instead re-purpose these dinks into nucs. Of course this is pretty contrary to what is conventionally practiced. My question is: What methods do you employ to control swarming? Your video showed some monster colonies, making 250+ lbs of honey each.
2. What recommended adjustments do you suggest for different localities? In the Southeast, our honey flow is nothing like that in Vermont. Nectar flows start to peak in early April and usually stay strong through the end of May. June thru September are typically hard months for our bees due to the heat, which results in very little nectar. Getting nucs through this dearth can be challenging. Those around agriculture (cotton and soybeans) don't have this same problem, of course the heat is still an issue.
I definitely recommend setting aside some time to watch this two-part series.

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I found a Bernina 910, which is a bit newer than yours on CL for only $100!! I was dismayed to find that it does not have the presser foot pressure adjustment, and I find it a little too tight. Even in modern Berninas, I had to pay $2399 for their "cheapest" (NOT) machine that has this feature. My 1893 Singer has it, but not a $1300 2013 Bernina.
Do you folks who have these older machines miss this adjustment?
No, I don't miss it because my vintage Berninas are adjusted correctly. Vintage Elnas are the same way. I've not had to adjust any of mine as the pressure is dead on, but I believe there is a way to do this inside the head of the machine.
That is a cute little Bernina. Not only does it look like a miniature 830, it also looks like a miniature 930. My wife has a 930 and loves it.
We also have a 319K with oodles of cams. My wife asked me to ask you what the serpentine cam number was for the 319 and the Bernina. Or what does it look like?
Dorothy in PA
Thanks for the numbers, we do have a #20 flat cam.
I also checked my stitch pattern chart I made with my 401, and top hat cam #2 makes what really looks like a serpentine pattern.
Maybe I should do one with the 319, 401 / 500, and Bernina 930 to see how they compare.
Joe, no that #2 cam isn't an 'S', that's a scallop type. It doesn't make the full curve and the stitch out is quite different than a serpentine. It's half of a serpentine stitch or a backwards 'C'.
I also have an 807.. wonderful little machine.. I bought my 830 brand new way back when it was introduced.. it still runs like a champ.. I was delighted to find this littler 807.. it's like the 830 has a little sister!!

Here's are the two sisters:> The 807 is lighter. Those extra cams in the 830 are heavy.

Serves 6
Prep Time 40 min
Total Time 40 min.
Step 1
To make coleslaw: Whisk together vinegar, sugar, oil, Dijon mustard, celery seeds and mustard seeds in a mixing bowl. Add green and red cabbage and carrots; toss well. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 2
To make barbecue sauce: Heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onions and garlic and sauté until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Add ketchup, vinegar, sugar, mustard, Worcestershire, hot pepper sauce and salt. Cook, stirring, until the mixture boils, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
Step 3
To cook pork and assemble sandwiches: Preheat the broiler. Place tenderloins on a broiler pan and season with salt and pepper. Broil 4 inches from the heat until lightly browned, about 6 minutes. Turn the tenderloins over and broil until the internal temperature registers 160°F, 6 to 7 minutes longer. (The center should be juicy with just a trace of pink.) Let the meat stand for 5 minutes before cutting into thin strips. Add the meat to the barbecue sauce and toss well.
Step 4
To assemble the sandwiches: Layer the coleslaw and the pork mixture inside rolls.

Best Practices for Social Media ·
Twitter ·
For every new social media account, you'll want to create a unique profile. When followers visit your page, it should convey the look and feel you think best represents McCombs. Make it visually appealing and fun! No black-on-black or drab images.
- Change your account name, location, the website your account links to, and your bio. Make sure your Twitter bio mentions your department AND McCombs. It's important to take advantage of the broader McCombs network. Handy!
- Though you can choose to have each of your tweets automatically posted to your Facebook page, we DO NOT recommend it. Each of your social media accounts should have a unique voice and we don't want to confuse the audience. You'll see that using Spredfast makes it super easy to maintain each voice and each account from one place.
The Email Notifications button (accessible through the right-hand column) lets you control when you receive email updates (e.g. when your tweets are retweeted, or someone new follows you, etc.). This is something you will learn to set up in Spredfast. Using Spredfast as your hub will make life on Twitter a snap!
In the same column, you can customize the look of your account by clicking on Design and then clicking Choose File to upload a photo, which will serve as your background.
Matching the look of your Twitter profile to your website helps visitors and followers associate your site to what you post on Twitter. If you need help with properly branded images for your Twitter, get in touch with our brand experts in the Communications Department.

text: I feel obliged to post my consumer experience in this thread. I ordered a couple of Sunkist queens based on the "hype" surrounding their buildup. While I was waiting for them I managed to snag a couple of Sunkist nucs from someone who refused to pick up their order from Russell (let me interject a big THANK-YOU to whoever it was that didn't want their nucs). A few weeks later, I have concluded that the "hype" about the Sunkists is well deserved. (x2) They have done very, very well building up in a reduced nectar flow. Got them as a 5 frame nuc (bursting at the seams), moved them into 10 frame hives, added another deep to each, then another deep to each as they needed room. Having this experience, I ordered more queens (Buckfast and JN Russell's) to add diversity to my stock and to try some bees that I've been wanting to try. I can hardly wait until they get here, but until they do, I will keep focusing on my plan to increase my hives and become a better beekeeper, so that when they do come I will have plenty of places to put them.
