Nov. 9 here in SE Missouri. Temps were in the 70's today and will be for the next few days. The girls were out getting their exercise. Still bringing in pollen from something dark orange.
I had pulled the solid bottom bar out of my Kelley Hive stand earlier this week and noticed a dead wax worm, so I decided to do an inspection while the weather was warm. All comb good, no sign of infestation. There was a new frame of capped honey that was not there a few weeks ago when I checked. Brood frames were filled with uncapped honey for the most part. Brood production seems to have come to a halt. I still have them in a single 10 frame deep with 9 frames installed.
I made them a new 4" cedar box with a 1/2" hole for a top entrance this winter and took the feeder off. I made a new main entrance reducer with a 3/8" gap out of cedar and installed it too. Things are looking good for a hive that was down to approx 5k bees in late Aug with no brood due to the drought. The numbers in the hive have over tripled since then.

"It's a two-day sabbatical," says Jeannine Edwards, director of the ConnectWise Community about her company's event. "We want attendees to leave saying, 'How do I finish 2013, and what is 2014 going to look like for me?'" She says partners and potential partners who attend IT Nation on November 13-15 in Orlando are there by choice, coming with the understanding they will focus on their businesses, thought leadership, and best practices.
Quite impressively, ConnectWise offers its partners more than 100 breakout sessions at the event. The content of the sessions is based on user group surveys about business experiences and using the ConnectWise business automation platform. Edwards says IT Nation attendees set their own agendas for the conference, choosing which sessions to attend. "You decide what's going to be your 'aha moment,'" she says.
She adds that ConnectWise also realizes not everyone has the same challenges and goals for the upcoming year. "We're not going to tell you what your idea of success is. We want to give you the way to get there."
In addition to educational opportunities, this year's event features two keynote addresses: Simon Sinek, internationally best-selling author of "Start With Why," and Arnie Bellini, ConnectWise co-founder and CEO. According to Edwards, vendor sponsors also add to the event by exhibiting and creating "an end-to-end technology toolkit."
In addition, IT National includes entertainment and networking. "It's a high priority for us to give partners time to spend networking, because that's just as important to their growth," Edwards says. One popular networking event is the IT Nation Golf Tournament — already booked to capacity.
A new feature at IT Nation this year is the "VIP Elite Program," for invited guests who are not yet ConnectWise partners. These guests will follow a special agenda focusing on IT service provider best practices and how to leverage the ConnectWise platform to achieve these goals.
ConnectWise increases about 20 percent in attendance and vendor sponsorship each year. Edwards says the growing event is part of ConnectWise's commitment to its partners' success. "The level and amount of energy that happens there is phenomenal."

Students capturing the Rhythm
Bristol, Tenn. - The sounds of the 13th annual Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion Festival have faded but the memories and the images will last a lifetime.
A lot of the images that were captured were taken by college students from Virginia Intermont and King University.
At King University, photography students look over just some of the images they captured during the 13th annual Bristol Rhythm & Roots Festival.
Believe it or not, a lot of them were taken on phones and sent out immediately on social media sites. "We had a big team of us specifically covering social media. So what we would do is walk around, take pictures of the bands, but also take pictures of the people that were there and post them instantly to Twitter, Instagram and Facebook," King junior Anna Walker said.
Others were helping with videotaping in the Pointer Jeans factory with the video company Live and Breathing. "I got to work hands-on with a bunch of video equipment and got the knowledge with me so I know what I could do. It was cool because I got to be out in the real world and see if is this really what I want to do," Quenton Lyons, a sophomore, says, and the answer is yes.
Still others were taking portraits of the bands downstairs. "It was a solid experience. I got to shoot with a bunch of bands. I shot all day Saturday from 9 in the morning to midnight and got to meet a lot of bands and take a lot of pictures," Senior Trevor Wentt said.
In three days time, the students got a lifetime of experience plus a step up in a new digital world. "Speed is so key, and just getting it out there and trying to attract as many people or getting the people that are there to where something fun and memorable is happening, that's key. It will maybe be the future and they've got their hands in it already," their insturctor Joe Strickland explained.
And it's an experience they won't soon forget.

The ring of Kerry is a route on a couple of highways that circles the Iveragh peninsula. It would probably take about 2 hours to drive the whole thing, but with the breathtaking views (see pictures) and inviting villages along the way the drive can easily take a day if not a weekend. We stopped a few times to walk some beaches and take in the sea air. It was a little weird to walk on a sandy beach in Ireland as that isn't something you associate with this island. On one of our stops in a little town we were in a grocery store and found a, get this, Tim Horton's! Well not a whole store but a serve yourself kind of stand. Of course we had to indulge in some donuts and a quadruple triple of course (just kidding, but see pictures). It was pretty good. The donuts were bang on but the coffee tasted a little different
We arrived in dingle which is on another peninsula just north of the ring of Kerry (the dingle peninsula go figure). We checked into our hostel and hit a pub just in time to watch an Irishman win the british open! I think we could hear the whole country scream when he won! Of course we had to celebrate with a pint... or two.
On our way back we stumbled across a trad session at a pub. Of course we had to check it out. We were glad we did. The fiddle player had a packed pub hypnotized with the blur that was her fingers and enchanted with the music she played. Every knee was bouncing and every hand clapping. It was a sight to see and certainly something to hear.
We stopped by a grocery store to pick up some breakfast supplies (cereal and milk). We wanted to get milk that wouldn't go bad if we walked around with it for a while so we settled on soya milk. Meg was very excited when she came across (what she thought was) 'custard' flavoured soya milk. Upon inspection at breakfast it was revealed to be simply straight up soya custard... Not milk. Just custard. So we started our day with a hearty dessert... I mean breakfast. To be honest it was pretty good with cereal.
After our fill of custard, we hiked along the bay until we came across a wee beach with an incredible view of the sea (see pictures). We relaxed and soaked up the sun. It was a perfect day for it. Meg even contemplated swimming! It must have been warm for such a thought! We made plans to return the next day equipped with the proper provisions... Picnic lunch, books, and sunscreen (and hopefully fabulous weather).
The next day after another generous portion of custard, we kept true to our goals and headed back to our beach for a picnic. Although the sun didn't shine as brightly, it was a gorgeous day for some down time. Off to Limerick!

Practicing social engineering
I find social engineering one of the most interesting aspects of hacking, and definitely one that speaks highly to the imagination.
Since I sort of pride myself in my social skills (sometimes), I do hope to give it a decent shot and get some experience.
I wanted to ask you guys: how do you practice it?
Without an actual assignment that is, just as a hobby, but still being legal and all.
What do you do, when and where, and what if you get caught?
I'm looking for some inspiration in this area tbh.
Cheers and thanks,

ABC News reported today that, according to a source close to Scott, the director had inoperable brain cancer.
Ed Winter, assistant chief at the coroner's office, said the autopsy is scheduled for today. Looking into whether Scott had cancer will be part of it.
"We'd like to know why a person decides to take their life," Winter said. "Is there some hidden thing we don't know about. Did he, in fact, have cancer and say, 'I'm out of here. I don't want to be in pain. I don't want my family to see me suffer."

An estimated 10 to 20 percent of troops coming home from Iraq and Afghanistan are suffering from traumatic brain injuries, or TBIs, which afflict 1.7 million Americans each year. Now the Pentagon's rolling out a revolutionary initiative to treat the condition: brain implants that one researcher likens to "replacement parts" for damaged gray matter.
"When something happens to the brain right now, there's so little that the medical community can do," Krishna Shenoy, associate professor of electrical engineering and bioengineering at Stanford University, told Danger Room. "Our goal is to understand — and then be able to change — how a brain responds to trauma."
No surprise that military extreme science agency Darpa is behind the project, which is called REPAIR, or Reorganization and Plasticity to Accelerate Injury Recovery. Yesterday, they announced an initial two-year round of $14.9 million in funding for four institutions, led by Stanford and Brown universities, that will collaborate on the brain-chip project. All in, it'll involve 10 professors and their research teams, working in neuroscience, psychiatry, brain modeling and even semiconductors.
Significant progress has already been made in understanding brain injury. Scientists can create conceptual, mathematical models of brain activity, and are also able to record the electrical pulses emitted by individual neurons in the brain, which offers insight into how those neurons communicate. That knowledge has spurred rapid progress in neural-assisted prosthetic devices, a program that Shenoy collaborated on with Geoffrey Ling, the same Darpa program manager behind REPAIR.
But what experts can't yet do, Shenoy said, is alter those electrical pulses to turn brain circuits on or off. His team will use optogenetics, an emerging technique that involves emitting light pulses to precisely trigger neural activity, to develop an implanted TBI treatment device.
"Before this, emitting light into the brain would be like hitting it with a hammer," Shenoy said. "What we're doing now is pin-pointing a single neuron, and that neuron will naturally change its activity depending on the cue."
The implants developed by the project will likely be composed of electrodes or optical fibers, and will sit on the surface of the brain. They'll read electrical signals from neurons, and deliver appropriate light pulses to stimulate other brain regions in response. The implants would allow the brain to operate normally, by acting as substitutes for areas that were damaged or "unavailable."
First up for Shenoy and company are optogenetic tests on mice, rats and eventually monkeys, to better understand how different regions of the brain interact. For example, how one area of the brain knows which signals to send to other parts. Once they've got that down, the researchers hope to develop chips that essentially mimic those interactions, so that an implant can "read a signal from region A, bypass damaged area B, and get that signal to C," Shenoy said.
And while Darpa's interested in ailing vets, the implants could have broad civilian application, including help for those who've suffered a stroke or undergone surgery to remove a brain tumor. If all goes according to plan, Shenoy expects implants for lab animals within four years.

Who makes the decisions in your community?
The rights-based model of community action is being called the new frontier of the civil rights struggle, because it is our own state and federal laws that are standing in the way of our right to determine what happens to us in the places where we live. The biggest threat posed by corporations is not the illegal stuff of headlines. The real danger is what big corporations are empowered to do legally, every day, in every community across the country. From water withdrawal to polluting refineries, toxic sludge spreading, GMOs and more, the corporate few wield the law against our communities, endangering our health, safety and the environment.
State and federal law says that corporations don't need community permission to drop pesticides overhead, or to site a toxic dump next to the school grounds. So who does decide? State agencies issue corporations "permits" and state legislatures routinely "preempt" (usurp) community lawmaking authority on behalf of those corporations. When corporate executives decide to site an unwanted project in our communities, we are told we cannot say "no," because that would be a violation of the corporation's Constitutional rights. But we can change that.
This program is providing a framework to transform grassroots organizing to protect people and planet.
- Rights of nature [1] – We cannot truly protect the environment if the law continues to see nature as mere property to be exploited at will. Slaves were once property, until we changed unjust law to recognize their rights. We're at the forefront of a commonsense global revolution for nature's rights.
- Corporate Power & Personhood [2]– Corporations are not people, and should not have the same "rights" afforded to people. Our Community Rights Program seeks to strip corporations of the legal powers and protections (including personhood) used to override the will of the people in our communities.
- Restoring Democracy [3] – It's time to put the "we the people" back into the democratic process. This program provides a legal framework and organizing model for the public to assert their inalienable rights in the place it matters most -- where they live. Organizing for Community Rights is the current chapter in the struggle for civil rights.

3D Printed Gun Fails after Six Shots

3D printed AR lower receiver doesn't meet expectations
One of the more interesting technologies for creating rapid prototypes and other items is 3D printing. 3D printing is capable of producing just about anything you can imagine from
implantable cartilage
for medical uses, to prototype parts and even weapons.
A project called Defense Distributed has been working on 3D printer files that allow users to create components to build their own guns using a 3D printer. A group of testers used a 3D printed gun part design from creator HaveBlue to produce an AR lower receiver (the lower receiver is a key component of the weapon that receives the rifle cartridge from the magazine) and headed to the gun range.
Unfortunately, it appears that recoil pressure in the completed weapon was too much for the buffer section of the 3D printed lower. The buffer is a section that separates the stock from the upper receiver reports
NBC News
. The part failed after firing only six shots. To make the failure even more embarrassing, the testers were using ammunition specifically designed for lower recoil.
The creator of the part claims to have printed his own and used it to fire hundreds of rounds.
While the firearm breaking in half while in operation seems to offer the potential for harm to the shooter and those nearby, the testers say that the only damage the operator faces is that of ego. When the weapon failed, the spring and buffer popped out of the tube and fell to the ground according to the testers.

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. - UPDATE 3:30 p.m.: Officers were dispatched in reference to an assault on E. Chesnut Street.
Once on the scene, officers say Elizabeth Ann Archer (pictured above) had stabbed her boyfriend, Jeremy Mounts with a large kitchen knife.
Police say the couple had been fighting when Archer allegedly stabbed Mounts.
Investigators believe alcohol was involved, and officials say Archer gave police a statement and expressed remorse.
Police say Archer was not injured.
Johnson City Police arrested 30-year-old Elizabeth Ann Archer early Tuesday morning, charging her with second-degree murder of 29-year-old Jeremy Mounts.
Police said they made the arrest after officers were called to a home on E. Chesnut Street to investigate a domestic disturbance.
Officers said the victim had a laceration to his lower torso. Mounts was taken to Johnson City Medical Center, where officials said he died.
Elizabeth Archer is being held at the Washington County Detention Center under a $100,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in court Wednesday morning.
Johnson City Police will hold a media briefing at 3:00 this afternoon.

Dubrovnik, Croatia
For the benefit of European chess federations, tournament organizers and chess players, the European Chess Union and MonRoi signed a 4-year Agreement to implement the MonRoi system in Europe.
The MonRoi presentation to the ECU Board members was received with a great interest. Gerry Walsh, ECU Deputy President and President of English Chess Federation, as well as Ali Nihat Yazici, ECU Board Member and President of Turkish Chess Federation, spoke about the MonRoi system implementations in the 81st Chess Congress in Hastings , England and the World Championships U20 in Istanbul , Turkey . Werner Stubenvoll from Austria and Dirk De Ridder from Belgium asked technical questions that helped to clarify the system's functionality in greater detail to the ECU Board members. Werner and Dirk run FIDE Technical Commission and they provided key inputs into MonRoi system development from specification definition, FIDE Certification tournament, to final products. Damir Levacic and Goran Antunac from Croatia have ideas how the MonRoi system can help in training as well as chess in school programs.
Boris Kutin, ECU President from Slovenia stated: "We are delighted to team up with MonRoi to bring the high quality live Internet broadcast system to all our members. This is a very important step for us. MonRoi Personal Chess Managers can be used in any tournament instead of paper score sheets. We recommend the MonRoi system to our members."
On behalf of MonRoi, its CEO announces: "We are very excited to collaborate with ECU, whose professionalism and enthusiasm towards chess values benefit all chess fans. We expect that the benefits of this new technology will supersede any previously available tool in attracting and retaining chess talents throughout Europe . We believe that corporate sponsorships will increase when we offer sponsors the opportunity to place their logos on each hand-held device, as well as advertising space on the World Databank of Chess webpage."
And for the chess-player the success which crowns his work, the great dispeller of sorrows, is named "combination."

Harrison woman still in critical condition after home explosion
HARRISON, Mont. - Officials at the University of Utah Burn Center in Salt Lake City say a Harrison woman remains in critical condition following a Sunday explosion.
"There isn't really much changed as of the news from yesterday at this point. She's in a medically induced coma and they're just maintaining her vitals," said Kelly Dean-Williams, friend of the injured Laura Lee Sheehan.
Sheehan was injured Sunday morning when the home she lived in blew up.
Investigators suspect a propane leak ignited by a room light led to the blast.
It was so powerful it scattered debris over half a block.
Neighbors rushed to the home and dug her out of the rubble.
Dean-Williams said she spoke with Laura's mother, Lisa, who reported her daughter is being taken care of at the burn center.
"She feels that Laura's in the best place possible. The care that she's receiving is top of the line, everybody there is wonderful. The staff is taking good care of her and she just had positive reviews to say," said Dean-Williams.
A fund has been set up at Stockman Banks across the state under the name "Laura Lee Sheehan Benefit Fund".

Reviews of this property
Our host was attentive and friendly. He explained in detail the operation of the house and some tips on visiting Lisbon. The apartment is spacious and well equipped with everything you need and large bath. The thermostat had a small problem which was necessary to control, so the last day we had no hot water. The area is very central and well connected with trams, buses and elevators right there. It has charm with its designer shops and bars, but at night it is very noisy. Bring you earplugs.
Nuestro anfitrión fue atento y simpático. Nos explicó con detalle el funcionamiento de la casa y algunos consejos sobre la visita a Lisboa. El apartamento es amplio y está bien equipado con todo lo necesario y bañera grande. El termostato tenía un pequeño problema que era necesario controlar, por lo que el último día no tuvimos agua caliente. La zona es muy céntrica y bien comunicada, con tranvías, autobuses y elevadores allí mismo. Tiene encanto con sus tiendas de diseñadores y bares, pero por la noche es muy ruidosa. Llevaros tapones para los oídos.
It was all in perfect condition and were great anfritiones.
Repetire a great experience.
Estuvo todo en perfecto estado y fueron grandes anfritiones.
Una gran experiencia repetire.
Perfect location for Bairro Alto where there is alot of restaurants, cafés and bars. Also short distance to Chiado and all transportation to go where ever you would like to go. The apparatment is big anough for 3, maybe 4 people/family. It has one big bedrom and to sleeping couches. There is a bar on the corner so there are some noises, especially in the weekends. I will absolutely recommend this appartment.
The apartment is very well equipped and well located, safe and quite neighborhood, walking the same night. There is easy access to the Metro and Tram, but is also possible to do many things the same pe. The booking procedure with Wimdu also went very well.
O apartamento esta muito bem equipado e bem localizado, a vizinhanca e bastante segura, mesmo para caminhar a noite. Ha facil acesso ao Metro e ao Tram, mas tambem e possivel fazer muitas coisas mesmo a pe. O procedimento de reserva com a Wimdu tambem correu muito bem.
La ubicación es muy buena, en pleno centro de la marcha, ideal si vas a disfrutar de la noche lisboeta aunque ruidoso si vas con niños y a hacer una vida más tranquila. El apartamento es confortable y con una amplitud buena para dos personas, pero estaba algo sucio (edredón, sofá, salvamanteles, etc.), las persianas no son funcionales y las sillas no eran estables la mayoría.
Hubo problemas con el check-in ya que nos habían aprobado acceder al apartamento a primera hora de la mañana y cuando llegamos allí nos dijeron que no podíamos entrar hasta las 16h y nadie nos había avisado al respecto.
Reviews for this host's other properties
Great apartment in a perfect location. Highly recommended!
We had a very nice stay in an amazing apartment in an amazing city. Very good contact with the host before and during the travel.
10/10 would book again.
Although it has been some time, I remember very well that it was a great experience to stay at this appartment for some days. We even stayed longer than intended and that was no problem at all. Beautiful view when sitting on the rooftop at night or day. The slanted walls throughout the whole appartment give it a funky feeling, but is a bit inconvenient for very tall people. Would recommend this place to anyone wanting a Lisboa city experience, as it is very central and close to most sights.
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
Absolutely wrong described Apartment: not quiet !!! otherwise very stylish, but very non-functional. Loud, hot, not really be ventilated because of the noise ...; Floors and great mattress great, but bed too narrow. No shelf next to it ..
Absolut falsch beschriebene Wohnung : NICHT ruhig!!! ansonsten sehr stylish, aber sehr unfunktional. Laut, heiß, nicht wirklich lüftbar wegen dem Lärm...; Fußböden toll und Matratze toll, aber Bett zu schmal. Keine Abstellfläche daneben..

Turn up the Heat this Winter in the Bahamas
Sunrise Resort and Marina • Freeport, Bahamas
Escape Kit
- A Four- ($259) or Five-Night ($329) Stay for Two from Now to April 15, 2013
- Or, a Four- ($219) or Five-Night ($279) Stay for Two from April 16 to September 2, 2013
- Access to Paddleboats, Bikes, Kayaks, and Wi-Fi
No matter how creative you get with your thermostat this winter, there's just no substitute for dialing into the temperature fixed at the sun-kissed settings of the Bahamas. Get ready to shed those winter blues along with that heavy coat when you Escape to Freeport's Sunrise Resort & Marina on Grand Bahama Island, which nabbed a 2012 Trip Advisor Certificate of Excellence.
"Natural beauty conspires with resort vitality to make Grand Bahama Island one of the Bahamas' most well-rounded, diverse destinations," chimes Fodor's review of the island. "The touristy spots take up only a small portion of an island that, on the whole, consists of uninhabited stretches of sand and forest."
Broad strokes of daylight orange and high-noon blue cover the interiors of your waterfront suite, blurring the line between the indoor and outdoor relaxation. Though you'll love to romp the sands of Taino Beach on horseback, the marina's 70 protected floating docks are a sure sign that you should be out on the water.
Step aboard a catamaran cruise for a barbecue-and-rum-punch lunch as you snorkel the afternoon away. Line in hand, fish for grouper, snapper, and mackerel from the reefs or pull a white marlin from miles off shore. The surrounding seas hold dive sites of varying mystique: Theo's Wreck is a sunken steel freighter where "colours spring into life at night in a torch beam," while Shark Junction is exactly what it sounds like—a confluence of carnivorous sea creatures.
Freeport is open for business: Buy up a bevy of artisan goods at the marketplace or try your luck with the slots and tables in Treasure Bay Casino. Either way, there'll be fire dancing, limbo contests, and excitement in the air, which just so happens to be 70 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit year-round.
"There are a lot of closed beaches that are beautiful and secluded, so you won't be crowded by other people. We love to be alone on the beach so we loved it. The staff was very friendly and always a pleasure to talk to and get to know."-- TripAdvisor

Tetanus Immune Globulin (Human) Solvent/Detergent Treated 250 Units
Tetanus Immune Globulin (Human) — BayTet® (tetanus immune globulin human solvent/detergent treated 250 units) treated with solvent/detergent is a sterile solution of tetanus hyperimmune immune globulin for intramuscular administration; it contains no preservative. BayTet (tetanus immune globulin human solvent/detergent treated 250 units) is prepared by cold ethanol fractionation from the plasma of donors immunized with tetanus toxoid. The immune globulin is isolated from solubilized Cohn Fraction II. The Fraction II solution is adjusted to a final concentration of 0.3% tri-n-butyl phosphate (TNBP) and 0.2% sodium cholate. After the addition of solvent (TNBP) and detergent (sodium cholate), the solution is heated to 30°C and maintained at that temperature for not less than 6 hours. After the viral inactivation step, the reactants are removed by precipitation, filtration and finally ultrafiltration and diafiltration. BayTet (tetanus immune globulin human solvent/detergent treated 250 units) is formulated as a 15–18% protein solution at a pH of 6.4–7.2 in 0.21–0.32 M glycine. BayTet (tetanus immune globulin human solvent/detergent treated 250 units) is then incubated in the final container for 21–28 days at 20–27°C. The product is standardized against the U.S. Standard Antitoxin and the U.S. Control Tetanus Toxin and contains not less than 250 tetanus antitoxin units per container.
The removal and inactivation of spiked model enveloped and non-enveloped viruses during the manufacturing process for BayTet has been validated in laboratory studies. Human Immunodeficiency Virus, Type 1 (HIV-1), was chosen as the relevant virus for blood products; Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus (BVDV) was chosen to model Hepatitis C virus; Pseudorabies virus (PRV) was chosen to model Hepatitis B virus and the Herpes viruses; and Reo virus type 3 (Reo) was chosen to model non-enveloped viruses and for its resistance to physical and chemical inactivation. Significant removal of model enveloped and non-enveloped viruses is achieved at two steps in the Cohn fractionation process leading to the collection of Cohn Fraction II: the precipitation and removal of Fraction III in the processing of Fraction II + IIIW suspension to Effluent III and the filtration step in the processing of Effluent III to Filtrate III. Significant inactivation of enveloped viruses is achieved at the time of treatment of solubilized Cohn Fraction II with TNBP/sodium cholate.

With all of the fuss surrounding Microsoft's Origami launch at CEBIT and Intel's more recent UMPC (ultra mobile PC) announcements you'd be forgiven for thinking that making PCs really small was a revolutionary new concept. What a great idea – cramming all of the functionality of a desktop PC into an easily portable package. Why hadn't anyone thought of that before?
Of course nothing could be further from the truth. Computer manufacturers have been striving to build the smallest machines imaginable ever since the first 'portable' home computer gave its unfortunate owner a hernia trying to lug it from desk to boot of car.
Way back in the late Nineties Toshiba with its Libretto released the tiniest laptop the industry had ever seen – and it's still not far off being that now with the firm has reviving the range. And over a year before Microsoft and Intel started to get the mainstream press over-excited OQO was quietly developing a UMPC all of its own.
In early 2005 OQO launched its model 1 – probably the smallest (and sexiest) machine yet to run full-blown Windows. It was little larger than a standard PDA, had the sort of build quality you'd be more likely to associate with military hardware, and it had the coolest sliding screen which smoothly rolled back on a rack-and pinion-system to reveal a full blown QWERTY keyboard, complete with number pad, underneath.
Riyad first laid eyes on the diminutive OQO model 1 at CES back at the beginning of last year and reviewed the company's groundbreaking pocket machine in the summer (you can read the full review here). He loved it and since then we at TrustedReviews have been following its fortunes closely. Just recently it has undergone some dramatic changes so we thought it was worth revisiting.
The biggest change is that the OQO 01+ Tablet Edition now comes with – you guessed it – Windows Tablet PC installed instead of plain old Windows XP Professional. This means you get extras such as handwriting recognition, e-ink and Windows Journal on top of all the features of Windows XP Professional. It seems a perfect fit. After all if you don't get on with the keyboard and stick pointer under the screen – and if you've got chunky or just plain clumsy fingers we can see how that might be the case – you've got another way of navigating and entering text.

Adj. The act of searching through a room that houses miscellaneous unwanted items in order to find something for yourself. Originating in the Berkeley Cooperative System, the term specifically refers to hunting through the "free pile room" where old co-opers leave their unwanted items to avoid clutter in the moving process.
"Sweet, I just found a pair of mannequin legs while free-pileing that I can put in my room!"
"I need a costume for the co-op party. Time to go free-pileing!"

So has anybody used these for longer than, say, a week?
They're selling dried Chinese soapberry shells (Sapindus mukorossi) in the largest health food store in town, and I promptly bought some.
Pic: Dried Chinese soapnut shells.
The instructions say to crush 5-7 half soapberry shells (= 4-6 g) and put these into a cotton baggy. This then is the amount needed per washing-machine load. It sounds laughably little, seeing that you (or at least, I) use way more washing powder per load ...
... anyway, the leaflet says that these contain 13 % saponins. I'll have to check how much saponin there is in bouncing bet roots (and/or leaf) (Saponaria officinalis), cos they're local to me, and were a very vigorous weed in my old garden; I'm sure the bouncing bet can be enticed to grow lots'n'lots of roots in the new garden as well. (Bummer, Jim Duke's database lists neither Sapindus nor Saponaria.) (Bummer, bouncing bet roots contain only 5 % saponin (gypsogenin + sugar). Of course, they don't say if that's fresh or dry ...)
I didn't notice any cotton bags by the dried nuts, so I've made my own out of an old bedsheet. I've found that tying the bundles up first and using the hammer on them then is better than doing things the other way around.
And I've washed a few loads of clothes with these nuts. The idea of switching to soapnuts completely is extremely attractive, as I'm green (err, that is, I think of the environment rather more than your average Joe).
What I want to know is, how clean are your clothes after a year of using no washing powder, just soapnuts?

Cupcake fundraiser sweet success for Healing Hands Health Center
BRISTOL, Va. - Valentine's Day is full of sweet treats and sweet success for a local charity. We've told you about Healing Hands Health Center giving you the opportunity to send a cupcake valentine and help the uninsured at the same time.
Thursday, News 5 tagged along with volunteers and learned this annual fundraiser was the biggest success to date.
Life is full of little surprises and at Grand Court Assisted Living Community in Bristol, Virginia Carolyn King got a cupcake from a secret admirer. King says she doesn't have the faintest idea who her valentine is, "I would say thank you so much and I love you and I hope I'm not being too forward."
But King wasn't the only one, volunteers with Healing Hands Health Center spent the day going door-to-door delivering Blackbird Bakery cupcakes for the charity's 'Sweet for the Sweet' Fundraiser. "We've been to churches, we've been to schools, we've been to people's homes," said volunteer Angela Hopkins.
This valentine cost $50 but that money will help pay for medical expenses for the working uninsured. More than 400 cupcakes were dropped off and News 5 learned a whopping $15,000 was raised this year. "With this money we'll be able to provide over 1,500 more patient visits," said Helen Scott with Healing Hands Health Center.
A visit to the dentist Rebecca Vest says she simply wouldn't be able to afford, "I'm very thankful for Healing Hands because otherwise, I wouldn't be able to get the care I'm receiving here."
We also learned about 35 volunteers helped fill the goody-bags as well as deliver the cupcakes from Abingdon to Bristol to Johnson City.

2. The move was brutal. We have so much stuff. I'm now on a mission to seek and destroy (and by destroy I mean sell or give away) as much unneeded, unused stuff as possible.
3. Our car broke down on the way to take the huge 26 foot U-Haul back Sunday morning-- not fun. But after one expensive tow to the mechanic, one failed fix by the mechanic, and one apparently successful fix by myself (using a warrantied part), it seems to be working now. Having one car is much more of a pain than I anticipated. Hopefully we can remedy that in the near future.
4. Our cats are complete basket-cases. We took them over the evening before the move thinking that that way they could "adjust" a bit and not have to experience all the people and chaos of the move. That idea did not impress them. I got bit in the process of collecting them, and by the end of the night, with a throbbing and feverish hand, thought I was going to have to go to the hospital for a Pasteurellosis infection. Luckily I was able to take care of it with a cocktail of rubbing alcohol, peroxide, bactisan and antibiotic ointment
5. A week later the cats are still holed up in the garage behind the well pump. I'm not sure what recovery is going to look like for them at this point, but I'm having a hard time feeling much sympathy.
6. We left some of our hand-me-down/freecycle/broken furniture behind in the move but tonight my mother-in-law arrives with some replacements and a piano. Moving that in should be interesting. Tomorrow we pick up a couch. I feel like a hoarder.
7. Noelle is still about the cutest kid ever. We drove all over tarnation Sunday trying to find a pumpkin patch. We were largely unsuccessful but managed to find a nice little roadside stand with really reasonable prices near our house.
I guess that's about it. I haven't had much time to read lately, which takes a toll on output. The one exception is that I've been going through the Leithart trial materials, and particularly the transcript. I may have some thoughts on that at some point. The long and short of it is that I'm not only more impressed with Dr. Leithart' thinking than ever, but I'm also more convinced than ever that it is absolutely within the pale, and in some aspects (although not all) the historic mainstream of Westminsterian Calvinism.

We live in a sweet world. The average American kid consumes more than 20 teaspoons of sugar per day, and adults eat 50% more sugar today than they did in the 1970s. We all know that too much sugar isn't good for you. But did we know it could be toxic? A team of researchers at the University of Utah used mice to conduct a study on the negative effects of sugar. They found it could have serious effects on people's health.
Sugar Symptoms
During the 58-week-long study, mice were fed a diet containing 25% more sugar. This percentage is equivalent to a healthy human diet along with three cans of soda daily. The team found that these mice were twice as likely to die as mice fed a similar diet without the sugar. Though the mice did not show signs of obesity or high blood pressure, male mice were 26% less territorial and produced 25% fewer offspring than the other mice.
Scientists often use mice for research because they have a similar genetic structure to humans. "Since most substances that are toxic in mice are also toxic in people, it's likely that those underlying physical problems that cause those mice to have increased mortality are at play in people," says study author James Ruff of the University of Utah. Findings from this study reveal negative effects that are not as detectable as weight gain or heart problems. Sugar can contribute to long-term changes in the body that can alter development and even shorten lives.
Reading Between the Lines
Different types of sugar have different effects on the human body. Some of the sugar we consume comes from foods we might expect—candy, soda, and cookies. But much of the sugar that we eat is hidden. Food companies add large amounts of sugar to items we may not classify as sweets. Some pasta sauces, crackers, and even brands of ketchup have large amounts of sugar. To help cut down on extra sugar consumption, nutrition experts suggest looking at the ingredients on food packages. Ingredients that end in ose, such as sucrose and fructose, are sugars. So are those that include the word syrup. Cutting sugar out of the American diet altogether may be difficult. But making the effort to control our nation's sugar cravings will provide for a truly sweeter future.

The majority of Kalmyk people in the United States today live either in the Howell-Jackson
area of central New Jersey or in the metropolitan Philadelphia area. These descendants of the Mongolian people
who once conquered much of Eurasia speak a dialect of Mongolian, although most Kalmyks also speak Russian.
Their religion is Tibetan Buddhism, and the Kalmyks currently maintain three Buddhist temples in New Jersey
and one in Philadelphia.
Today's Kalmyk Americans are descendants of two groups that escaped their homeland, the Kalmyk Republic
on the northern shore of the Caspian Sea in southeastern Russia. The first group fled to western Europe in 1920,
pursued by the Bolshevik Army. A second group escaped during World War II, when Stalin ordered the abolition
of the Kalmyk Republic and exiled the Kalmyk people to Siberia. In Europe, the Kalmyks became stateless
refugees, living in displaced persons camps in Munich, Germany. Originally refused entry into the United
States because of Asian exclusion laws, the Kalmyks were reclassified as Caucasians. With the help of the
Tolstoy Foundation, church organizations, and the United Nations, most of the displaced Kalmyks were brought
to the United States during 1951 and 1952.
The breakup of the Soviet Union at the end of the twentieth century has brought a new wave of Kalmyk
immigrants to America. They tend to settle near earlier groups in order to have access to ongoing
cultural, religious, and language resources. In 2000, New Jersey's Kalmyk population was estimated to
number around three thousand.

Draft 2012 Perspective
: : Story
Allan Simpson
Saturday, July 14, 2012
From almost any perspective, the 2012 draft has been a rousing success. That became apparent on Friday, the new deadline for signing the 1,231 players that were selected this year.
Not only were a record number of players signed in the first 10 rounds, but a modern-day draft record was set for the highest percentage of players overall that were signed. Moreover, the players were signed by mid-July, unlike a year ago when 23 of 33 first-rounders and 98 players in the first 10 rounds remained unsigned as late as Aug. 15, the final day for signing draft picks under the old system.
Under terms of a new Collective Bargaining Agreement authored last off-season, provisions were made to move the signing deadline up to July 13 and also reduce the number of rounds from 50 to 40—rules that both sped up the signing process and led to a larger percentage of drafted players being signed than ever before.
But the biggest impact that came from the most sweeping changes in draft history was the restraint on bonuses that clubs showed in signing their picks—a significant and welcome development compared to recent drafts, when teams were free to spend bonus money at will and often did so recklessly.
Faced this year with the real threat of a significant tax and, more importantly, the loss of premium draft picks in future years if they exceeded newly-imposed signing bonus-pool amounts, no club aggregately spent so much to sign players that they will be required to forfeit a draft pick, although a handful of teams slightly exceeded their imposed bonus-pool limits and will be taxed accordingly.
The Minnesota Twins paid out the highest signing bonus this year, $6 million to Georgia prep outfielder Byron Buxton, the second overall pick. That figure was topped by four players a year ago, including an $8 million bonus paid to UCLA righthander Gerrit Cole, the No. 1 overall pick. By contrast, the top four players drafted this year—No. 1 Carlos Correa ($4.8 million), Buxton, No. 3 Mike Zunino ($4 million) and No. 4 Kevin Gausman ($4.32 million)—were the only players to receive bonuses of even $4 million or more.
Twenty players (16 first-rounders, 4 supplemental first-rounders) received bonuses of at least $2 million, down from 23 in 2011.
In the most-noteworthy case of the new, restrictive new draft rules having their intended effect of actually forcing a team to walk away from one of its premium picks rather than be penalized significantly, the Pittsburgh Pirates failed to come to terms with the eighth pick overall, Stanford righthander Mark Appel, the lone selection in the first round not to sign.
The Pirates, who spent upwards of $17 million to sign all their draft picks a year ago, were prepared to offer Appel a bonus as high as $3.8 million—$900,000 over the slot for the eighth pick, and the highest amount they could go without having to forfeit a first-round pick in the 2013 draft—but Appel, represented by hard-line agent Scott Boras, had a larger figure in mind and would not compromise. By not signing, Appel will return to Stanford for his senior year and be eligible for the 2013 draft.
Boras' inability to get Appel the contract he sought under the new draft rules can only be perceived as a setback for Boras as he has been at the forefront of landmark draft signings in recent years, notably Stephen Strasburg in 2009 and Bryce Harper in 2010.
As a senior, Appel would appear to have almost no chance to improve on his draft standing a year from now, and may actually be in greater danger of seeing his stock drop. Among a record 63 college seniors drafted in the first 10 rounds this year, none signed for an amount greater than his draft slot, and only three signed for bonuses upwards of $100,000.
The Pirates, on the other hand, will not be penalized for failing to sign a premium pick as they will receive essentially the equivalent pick (ninth overall) in next year's draft as compensation. But by spending only $2,809,200 on bonuses in the first 10 rounds (significantly less than their bonus pool amount of $6,563,500 for the first 10 rounds), the Pirates fell far short of their record spending spree of a year ago, when they spent $8 million to sign Cole, and an additional $5 million to sign their second-rounder, Texas prep outfielder Josh Bell. Both were record bonuses for the first- and second rounds.
The Houston Astros initially had Appel on their short list of five prospects to go No. 1 overall and appeared primed to select him, but were scared off as well by Appel's lofty bonus demands, and settled instead on Correa instead as the No. 1 selection. That compromise decision paid off handsomely for the Astros as they not only signed Correa for $4.8 million—$2.4 million below the prescribed slot of $7.2 million—but smartly utilized the unused allotment to draft and sign two premium picks that might have been unsignable otherwise.
In the sandwich round, the Astros drafted Florida prep righthander Lance McCullers and signed him for $2.5 million—the largest bonus in that round, and double the slot amount for the 41
pick overall. In the fourth round, they selected California prep infielder Rio Ruiz and signed him for $1.85 million—more than five times the slot amount for that pick, and more than double the bonus of all but one other pick in that round.
Buxton, the second pick overall, received easily the largest bonus this year, and yet it was $200,000 less than the slot authorized for that selection. With no other player receiving even as much as $5 million, those figures alone point out how Major League Baseball has succeeded in curbing the runaway inflation that characterized drafts over the better part of two decades.
Moreover, a record number of players were signed in the first 10 rounds. Even with Pittsburgh's failure to sign Appel, just nine players went unsigned, and one of those players, Florida senior outfielder Preston Tucker, Houston's seventh-round pick, is still eligible to sign because he has exhausted his college eligibility.
A year ago, there were 28 such selections that went unsigned in the first 10 rounds; in 2010, there were 26.
Moreover, 897 of 1,231 players drafted were signed. That's a signing rate of 72.9 percent—the highest since Major League Baseball went to an all-inclusive, one-draft format in 1986 by abandoning the January draft and the secondary phase of the June draft.
Though they did not have first- or second-round picks, the Los Angeles Angels managed to sign 36 of their 38 selections, the best signing ratio by any team in a single draft since the Los Angeles Dodgers signed 33 of their 34 picks in the June regular phase in 1985. No team has ever signed all its draft picks in a given year.
In the same 1985 draft (June regular phase), the 26 major-league teams signed 74.7 percent of their selections, though were successful on only 33 percent of their picks in the June secondary phase, lowering the overall signing percentage for that year to 70.1 percent.
With 21 apiece, the Pirates and New York Mets had the most unsigned draft picks this year. The damage could have been greater for the Pirates, but once they realized they were not going to sign Appel and had available funds in their bonus pool, they quickly jumped in to sign two Florida high-school products, 16
-rounder Max Moroff for $300,000 and 17th-rounder Hayden Hurst for $400,000. They also came to terms with eighth-rounder Kevin Ross, an Illinois high-school shortstop, and 18th-rounder John Kuchno, an Ohio State righthander, in the final 48 hours. Both those players signed for $125,000.
With all the new draft rules in place this year that significantly limited the ability of teams to shell out significant bonuses to players after the 10
round, there were few bonuses that exceeded six figures and certainly none that hit seven figures or even came close, as had been the case in recent years.
The largest bonus signed by a player after the 10
rounder went to Illinois prep righthander Ryan Borucki, a 15th-rounder who signed with the Toronto Blue Jays for $425,000. Borucki had been targeted as a potential early-round pick before hurting his arm in the spring.

I have ordered alot of packages but have never ordered a nuc. On another post it was commented about the advantage of nucs in recieving brood of all stages. Looking for someone to help with the following:
Is there a distinct advantage of a nuc over a 3lb. package?
I have always been amazed how fast 3lbs. of bees can draw and raise brood. Also like the idea of starting new hives with new foundation and not bringing in other peoples problems into my hives. Also, 3lb. packages have been cheaper than nucs. May be easier(?) to transport/install but like I said, never had a nuc.
Anyone want to convince me one way or the other?
