Raiders 34
Cronulla 16
Canberra coach David Furner claims no side is more battle-hardened for the rigours of sudden-death NRL football than his surprising Raiders - who continued their merry tightrope trip into the second week of the finals.
Dead and buried two months ago with not just their season but also Furner's coaching career looking decidedly shaky propositions - the Raiders buried Cronulla 34-16 at Canberra Stadium for their sixth straight win.
They will now play confidence-sapped South Sydney at ANZ Stadium on Saturday night after the Rabbitohs went down to Melbourne in their qualifying final, with North Queensland to meet former premiership favourites Manly in Friday night's other sudden death encounter.
While the Rabbitohs seemed to suffer from a case of stage fright in their 24-6 loss to the Storm, the Raiders lapped up the pressure in their win over the Sharks - Furner admitting pressure was something the side had become used to carrying.
"We've been in this position for six or seven weeks where if we dropped a game we were pretty much out or fighting with other teams,'' Furner said.
"That's what I've liked about the side - again they've risen to the challenge.
"It's sudden-death semi-finals and we've been playing that for six or seven weeks - and that momentum of winning builds confidence in the team.''
The only issue for the Raiders may be finding a replacement goalkicker if the season's leading pointscorer Jarrod Croker (concussion) is unavailable - after Josh Dugan and Blake Ferguson missed all four of their attempts in the centre's absence late in the win over Cronulla.
The Rabbitohs will have to find a replacement for Matt King after he suffered a suspected broken arm, but of greater concern could be finding a cure for the stuttering, ill-disciplined display against the Storm.
The Cowboys have no such worries as they head to Sydney on the back of a 33-16 thumping of Brisbane in Saturday night's elimination final.
It is a rematch of their finals battle from a year ago when the Cowboys suffered a second half meltdown against the Sea Eagles, when they conceded 42 points in the final 32 minutes to lose 42-16.
But with Manly sweating on the availability of Jamie Lyon and Joe Galuvao (both calf injuries) as well as Jason King and Steve Matai (both on report for high tackles), it's a case of the shoe being on the other foot for the Cowboys.
"We limped into the finals last year, only one of our last four games we won and Johnathan (Thurston) had come back from a knee injury ... Brent Tate had only started playing footy in round 18, he hadn't had a lot of confidence and Matt Scott was under duress (with) a back problem,'' coach Neil Henry told ABC radio.
"We're in much better shape this year.
"We're healthy, we've been able to keep the same squad together for six or seven weeks and we've been able to have some good wins away from home as well in that time. Those sort of things put us in a good stead mentally for a trip down to Sydney.''

Hi Jason.
Yesterday (08/16/16) I received a really nice shadow box, certificate of purchase and a thank you card in the mail for the 2016 FLSTC I bought from Columbia HD last month.
That got me thinking. Over the past 20 years, I have purchased 5 of the 6 Harleys I've owned from Columbia. Each and every time, I have gotten quality bikes (new and used) and was treated with the utmost respect. Your staff is top notch! All of them in every department! Because of that, I got to thinking that I should be the one thanking you for everything your business has done for me.
All to often, we are too quick to criticize a business and a little short on the compliments when a business goes above and beyond to take care of their customers. Well, this is my opportunity to do just that.
After this long I don't think its necessary to say, but keep up the good work.
Buy the way, the 6th Harley, the only reason I didn't buy it from you was because of the factory shortage in 2005 and there was a several month back order on new bikes. Unfortunately I had to get it from another dealer on the other side of the river where your just another face and another sale.
Please feel free to post this on your bulletin board so that everyone can read it and if they are a new customer, they'll know what to expect.
Joe Y.
- This is very late, but i've been very busy here on the East Coast. I would like to commend your service dept for excellent repairs and service i received on my 2010 electraglide last fall. My wife and i were able to make a trip from Portland to Jacksonville,Fl leaving Portland 1 oct., our trip took us down the Oregon coast and the redwood national forest in Calli, tour of San Fran, Vegas, Hoover Dam, Grand Canyon, and even Tombstone. The bike ran like a swiss clock. Lost a heel shifter in West Texas, but that ain't bad for 3600 miles. Thanks again, they were able to pinpoint a failing drive bearing in my tranny and fix like new. It was my bucket list trip, but just made me want to go again. Gary L.
- The Service Dept. at Columbia H-D is top notch! Always willing to help and answer my questions. Most recently with troubleshooting my stereo system blown speakers. Stu & Lenny checked out my bike, gave me options that are available in a very short time. Also BEAT labor cost of the install of speakers by a local stereo shop. Thanks for everything. You guys are the best…. Terry C.

Has anybody ever tried wiring fondant or candy into frames? Had any success? Im still a beginner but thought it might be easier for the cluster to move horizontally to a frame placed nearby than vertically.
Thanks Bonnie
Has anybody ever tried wiring fondant or candy into frames? Had any success? Im still a beginner but thought it might be easier for the cluster to move horizontally to a frame placed nearby than vertically.
Thanks Bonnie
There have been threads about bee candy being used in frames but I believe the majority of people supply additional sugar overhead.
I have only placed a baker's fondant over inner covers. I prefer leaving the inner covers sealed until the first inspection in early Spring.
You should find plenty of opinions here: http://www.google.com/cse?cx=0009670...mes&gsc.page=1
Trying to think inside the box...
Hey Bonnie...hope you are well. I just went to HD by you and bought 1x4 and 1/4 hardware cloth and put it over them. Hope you are well. My hives took a beating from the storm.
Someone on here put candy on plastic foundation and made candy boards that way. I'm not sure how they plugged the corners, unless they had some sort of foundation that didn't have spaces in the corners.
Good enough is perfect - Joel Salatin
Thanks All, really want to try this. I think I'm going to put 1/4 inch hardware cloth into a couple medium frame and roll some fondant into them, hoping the hardware cloth will help support and keep it in the frame. My reason for trying this I have two hives that where robbed out badly late in the season, I started feeding them syrup, but have lost two weeks because of Storm Sandy (i'm on a well and had no water for two weeks to make syrup) now it's too cold and these hives are still light. I'm going to pull the robbed out comb and replace it with the fondant frames so the cluster can move up normally through the winter. Wish me well.
good luck....if you make your own candy for the frame, I use an ounce of water per pound of sugar and let it sit out for a day or two and it becomes rock hard. I also add a touch of vinegar to that. The bees love it. I think your idea may just work out! Let me know if you have any questions.
Take a look at this....pretty much what I do, but imagine you can do it with frames too.
This work for me (no cooking)and if you like Pollen patty (optional)
Thanks Jim, thats exactly what I was looking for, just like feeding the birds suet in the winter. It's looks to me like he imbedded a pollen patty in the middle of the candy.

Cliven Bundy, the rancher who swiftly became a conservative hero after a confrontation with the Bureau of Land Management, seems destined to lose his halo with rather remarkable speed after the New York Times today reported some comments of his.
"I want to tell you one more thing I know about the Negro," Bundy told supporters, describing a drive-by glimpse of residents of public housing, a brief observation that was apparently sufficient to form the basis of a sociological treatise. "And because they were basically on government subsidy, so now what do they do? They abort their young children, they put their young men in jail, because they never learned how to pick cotton. And I've often wondered, are they better off as slaves, picking cotton and having a family life and doing things, or are they better off under government subsidy? They didn't get no more freedom. They got less freedom."
My Washington Post colleague Alexandra Petri wants to know why we are paying attention. "Why do we care about his thoughts on race? Why, for that matter, were we listening to him in the first place?" she wrote. "Why are we surprised that someone who has been taking his lines directly from the War Of Northern Aggression Talking Points manual has retrograde views about slavery?"
The answer, I think, is this. Bundy's remarks, and a series of others like them, express sentiments that most of us think have been safely escorted off the premises of reasonable discourse. But every once in a while, a Nevada rancher - or a soon-to-be-unlovable reality television personality, or a celebrity chef - turns out not just to be harboring nostalgia for white supremacy in private but also to be perfectly willing to speak about it in public. It is tempting to dismiss Bundy as an isolated, predictably racist crank. But he is not alone, and that has real significance for public life.
Take Bundy's remarks on his ranch. In a video of Bundy speaking that includes remarks not reported by the Times, he says of the people he observed: "You could see in their faces, they weren't happy sitting on those concrete sidewalks."
That same comfort in imputing feelings to black people shows up in "Duck Dynasty" star Phil Robertson's reminiscences to GQ about hoeing cotton for white farmers alongside black coworkers. "They're singing and happy. I never heard one of them, one black person, say, 'I tell you what: These doggone white people' - not a word!" Robertson told the magazine. "Pre-entitlement, pre-welfare, you say: Were they happy? They were godly; they were happy; no one was singing the blues."
And celebrity chef Paula Deen found herself in court in an employment discrimination suit. Among the allegations was her longing for a time when black waiters in white coats would live up to a past standard of servile cheerfulness like "in the Shirley Temple days, they used to tap dance around."
Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus declared that "Bundy's comments are completely beyond the pale. Both highly offensive and 100% wrong on race." A&E handed Phil Robertson a suspension from "Duck Dynasty" that was meant to be "indefinite." In reality, it was brief, and "Duck Dynasty" quacked onward, albeit to declining ratings. Deen's Food Network show was canceled, though her cruises were not.
Denouncing Bundy, Robertson and Deen's distortions of history is both necessary for people like Priebus and big companies like A&E, and relatively necessary. But it is rather more difficult to root out the more respectable ideas that flow from their fantasies about the black experience.
If slavery and Jim Crow had no adverse effects on African Americans, then people like Deen can convince themselves that their preference for black servers at a "southern plantation-style wedding" are aesthetic, rather than racial. If the social safety net has stripped away black entrepreneurial spirit and energy for work, then the mandate to eliminate that safety net seems clear. If African Americans are at a loss for what to do with themselves, then white legislators can feel confident pronouncing on the needs of black communities.
Bundy's beliefs about race may be, as Priebus said, "completely beyond the pale," but just days ago, his broader philosophies about the role of government in American life were not, and I doubt many of the conservatives who disavow him today will jettison the latter with the former. Instead, Bundy's former supporters will try to convince us that, when it comes to our discussions of race, it is what falls inside the bounds of acceptable public dialogue that counts, rather than whatever crops up outside. Even if they are right, the politer ideas that fall in bounds are still a scandal.

well shorter intervals did not happen :) but my edumacation is going well, uni next year.
Not much else to really report on. Tcl/Tk is cool, if you have not already tried it then you should.
In middle of exams right now, (should be studying), so have not read any books for a couple of weeks, up side is after exams there are some new ones to read available.
I have both myspace and facebook now. Felt funny venturing into such reaches of the internet but did prove usefull in establishing a web of connections to people I have been bumping into, rather than people sharing technical or ideological common grounds.
As a general note on education, I would recomend to others that refreshing those brain cells is a good idea, even if you already seem to know a subject, going through the process of formalising knowledge is very usefull.
Next post, I guess I'll be in uni.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Sorry about the long overdue update! I will post pictures once I get some of the wires cleaned up but here's some of the components I either added or updated:
Moved out the shrimp for a crowntail betta.
LCD Touch Screen
Ditched the nearly 40 individual wires I was using to connect the LCD to the Arduino in favor of the shield, which fixed all my glitches and even the SD slot started working. This allowed me to upload high resolution images for backgrounds without the need to render individual icons, saving tons of memory on the arduino, and improving overall flow of program. The background is currently a picture of the Betta, with 4 icons. A droplet (water change pumps), a light (lights obviously), a thermometer (temperatures), and a picture of the filter (for the flow sensor). Each icon opens a sub-menu with various controls and data output.
External U-Vessel
Because the system requires a temperature sensor, heater, two airline tubes, a water sensor, and the two filter hoses, I wanted to keep the equipment out of the tank, since it is only a 5 gallon after all. So I designed a U-tube made from PVC that is mounted behind the tank. I have a siphon pulled from the tank into this U-tube so it is constantly being filled if the water levels aren't the same. Then I place the heater, sensors, and hoses into the other side of the U-tube. At the bottom of the tube I have substrate that not only acts as a filter as the water passes over it, but also prevents foreign matter from entering the filter inlet tube, where it could damage the flow sensor impeller. So the inlet hose to the filter is sucking water out of the external u-vessel, where it then passes through the inline flow sensor, into the filter (zoomed 501) and then back into the aquarium.
The PVC tube is 1.25" (if I remember correctly), and gets a pretty good flow going through it with the filter running, causing all filtered water to pass over temp sensors, water sensors, the heater, and water change pump hoses. This results in a very well mixed system.
The current problem I'm experiencing is the siphon flow rate isn't enough to keep up with the filter flow rate, and as a result I am experiencing about 1-2 inches of draw-down in the u-vessel relative to the tank water level. To remedy this I plan to increase the siphon tube diameter.
Temp Sensors
There are currently 2 temp sensors, one in the Arduino and circuitry drawer, and one in the external u-vessel. I also plan to add a third to the LED array heatsink (but really just for fun, because it never gets hot). In the temp sub-menu I can change between Celsius and Fahrenheit, and there is a status light that turns green if:
78 F < Tank Water Temp < 82 F
Circuit Enclosure Temp < 110 F
and red for anything out of those ranges.
Water Sensors
I purchased 3 water level sensors. One is for the u-vessel (which once I get the larger siphon tube, will be on the same water level as the tank), and I will use this sensor for maintaining adequate water levels, sending commands to the pumps if necessary.
Pumps/Storage Containers
I purchased 2 peristaltic pumps and two 1-gallon containers. One container/pump is fresh water with dechlorinator and fertilizers such as trace minerals and excel. The other container/pump is for waste water, and routinely removes water from the tank. The pump tube-to-aquarium interface is at the u-vessel, where the tubes are routed into the water. The pump tube-to-container interface consists of a hole drilled in the container lid, with a rubber grommet installed. The pump hose fits snug enough that it pulls a vacuum on the container. To remedy this I installed two simple air locks you might find while home-brewing. This prevents a vacuum from being pulled in the container, while still keeping it generally sealed off to the atmosphere.
The submenu for the pumps currently consists of a slider to control volume to add/remove and a "fill" button, which when pressed will both add fresh water and remove old water to the amount specified by the slider. I intend to have manual controls available, but to have this system automated based on a feedback control system from the water level sensors.
Flow Meter
The flow meter is installed inline with the hoses to the zoomed 501 filter. I measured the flow rate with a very dirty filter when I overhauled the system. I then thoroughly cleaned the filter, and measured the flow rate. Using a very rough linear approximation I was then able to generate a filter performance equation, allowing me to output the health status of the filter based on the flow rate. The submenu for the flow rate allows me to change between liters per hour and gallons per hour. I intend on collecting a bunch of data over the next few months in order to generate a much more accurate filter performance approximation.
Auto Feeder
I purchased a high torque electric motor and designed a conventional autofeeder using an archimedes screw and a hopper, similar to how your freezer might get ice to the dispenser. I modeled this autofeeder in autocad and I am now waiting for permission from my university to print it.
Lights/Clock Module/Misc Components
Haven't changed the light or real time clock module at all.
Bought 8 relays, two of which are currently being used to control the peristaltic pumps. I plan to wire other relays to the heater and filter, granting me the ability to turn those on and off, although that will be the extent of my control of these components.
I bought an ethernet module for the arduino as well, which I'll use to broadcast data to a website I can view anywhere with an internet connection. It will be a SCADA type interface, allowing both inputs and outputs.
I'm getting close to finishing a drawing program with the ability to change the color. I accomplished this by using Henning Karlsens "Touch Example: Quickdraw" as a base, then looking at HK's "Touch Example: Buttontest" to learn how to make buttons and highlighting the ring around them. Still has a couple bugs but it's fairly close.
My next goal will be creating a menu with a pen icon to access the drawing program, and maybe a finger icon to access the touch calibration program.
The reason I'm playing around with these programs is to get the basis for programming menu-like functions, buttons and to display data. Then I'll move onto bigger/better things
Oh, and you guys get to see my horrible handwriting
The tank looks great! And I thought my vals outgrew the 40 gallon fast, I bet they fill that tank up quick.
I've been trying to program the LCD for the past couple hours. Fortunately I got a second arduino to use for my paludarium so I could use that and not worry about the LEDs flashing on and off each time I had to re-upload.
I'm making very slow progress though, it isn't a very intuitive system and has a lack of instructions, and when I do find a tutorial it usually contradicts something else I've already looked at. Here's what I have managed to get so far:

Bought a 3.2" LCD touchscreen for the project yesterday, I got it from here:
Also the arduino arrived in the mail. In about 30 minutes I'm gonna go to radio shack to get the appropriate wires and a couple test LEDs/Resistors and hopefully I will have the LED's controlled from the Arduino by tonight. Unfortunately the LCD screen and temperature sensors won't be here for a while because they're coming from Hong Kong.
A couple pics of the arduino:
Got some more arduino supplies:
Just bought the arduino. For right now it will be controlling only the led's but eventually I hope to have it hooked up to multiple temperature sensors, a fertilizer auto-doser, water replacement, automatic feeding, and a pH sensor.
Tonight I finished making the heatsink and soldering the LED's
They're VERY bright, I briefly held it over the tank and they look great.
I'll try to get a video of it tomorrow.
All that's left to do is build an enclosure; the very last picture is my inspiration, although it will be smaller in height, stained darker and no light sticking out the top.
Called up a computer store yesterday and asked if they had any trash/scrap heatsinks laying around. They were very cool and let me poke through their box of oddballs and take these two for free. Initially I was looking for both the LED and the driver, however since CPU heatsinks are so small I decided to build a heatsink for the LEDs. As for the driver I'll probably use the heatsink on the left, because the driver fits the copper surface area perfectly.
Ballast went out on the shrimp tank light the other week, instead of fixing it though I think I'm gonna test the waters of diy led's with a small fw build, a little practice for the jbj 24 cube. A little expensive for such a small tank, but the plan is to eventually add an arduino and diy auto-dosing system, nerd out with it, so a modular system was the goal.
Got most of my supplies today
I ended up taking out the four leafed clovers (Marsilea quadrifolia) because they were almost at a complete standstill as far as new growth goes and wouldn't stay planted.
|Your welcome I just like the plants in the background. I have some like that in my tall tank.

By: Marc Kusinitz, PhD
Meningococcal meningitis, a disease that sweeps across sub-Saharan Africa in an area called the meningitis belt, is losing its power to inflict illness and death. Scientists from FDA made a critical contribution in developing the technology needed to manufacture a vaccine against this terrible disease, and at an affordable cost for African nations like Burkina Faso, Chad, Ethiopia, and Niger.
Meningococcal meningitis can be deadly. It kills 10 percent of people it infects within two days after they start showing symptoms. Although an antimicrobial drug saves large numbers of infected individuals, about 10 percent die from the infection and about 10 percent to 20 percent of survivors develop mental retardation, hearing loss, or seizures. In Africa, most meningococcal disease is caused by the group A meningococcus bacteria, and about half of its victims are working-age adolescents and young adults. The disease results in very significant human, social, and economic losses to the affected communities and countries. Vaccination offers the best chance to prevent the disease and epidemic meningitis. However, an existing vaccine didn't work very well.
Developing a Vaccine:
In 2001, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation agreed to fund the Meningitis Vaccine Project (MVP)–a partnership between the World Health Organization and PATH, a non-profit organization based in Seattle, WA that works with collaborating groups to provide health care technologies and strategies to areas of the world that have limited resources.
Dr. F. Marc LaForce led MVP's effort to develop, test and license a new type of vaccine against group A meningococcus bacteria, that could protect people before an epidemic begins. The new vaccine, called a conjugate, is a chain of sugars connected to a protein that the immune system responds to very well. When MVP hit a hurdle during the development stage, FDA stepped in. Drs. Robert Lee and Carl E. Frasch, two researchers in the Office of Vaccines Research and Review in FDA's Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER), had developed an alternative conjugation technology that was more efficient and less costly. Through a technology transfer agreement, FDA provided the technology to MVP via PATH, with help from the National Institutes of Health.
Scientists at CBER also developed reagents for evaluating the vaccine's performance and safety and developed methods to monitor the manufacturing process. MVP had partnered with the Serum Institute of India Limited, a developing-country vaccine manufacturer, to make the new conjugated vaccine. In December 2003, two scientists from the Serum Institute came to Drs. Lee and Frasch's FDA laboratory to learn the conjugation method to manufacture the vaccine.
After preclinical animal studies and a series of clinical trials in people in India and Africa's meningitis belt to assess its safety and effectiveness, the new vaccine, MenAfriVac, was licensed in Dec. 2009 by India for export to Africa. By June 2010, the WHO had prequalified the vaccine for use in global immunization programs.
Launching the Vaccination Campaign:
MVP launched its vaccination campaign in Dec. 2010, beginning in Burkina Faso and moving on to Mali and Niger and eventually Cameroon, Chad and Nigeria. By the end of 2011, an estimated 55 million people had been vaccinated with MenAfriVac at a cost of only 40 cents per dose.
The contribution of CBER researchers Carl Frasch and Robert Lee was perhaps best summed up by MVP director Dr. LaForce in a news story about their timely contribution of the conjugation technology that enabled the development of MenAfriVac at a price that Africa could afford: "These guys are heroes."
FDA's contributions to a major health care project in Africa underscore the agency's recognition that infectious diseases know no borders. Protecting human health globally is linked to the agency's core mission of protecting human health in the United States.

My bus for Santiago didn't leave until 5:15 p.m. so I had plenty of time yesterday to explore the town of Puerto Varas. This little village is nestled on the southern edge of Lago Llanquihue, and like many other towns in southern Chile, Puerto Varas has a heavy German influence. This is easily spotted from the peculiar architecture, which at times made me feel like I was in Europe, and as far away as possible from stereotypical Latin America. The town's most striking feature is the large white and red church that juts out of the forest of colorful houses
During the later part of the morning, I decided to trek to the top of Cerro Philippi, which is part of a park just north of the city. There is a large white cross at the top of the hill and I figured there probably were some pretty decent views. The walk itself was fairly steep, and the fact that I was wearing sandals certainly didn't help my cause. The trail was through a small sector of forest and I couldn't help but be reminded of the trails back home near my house, particularly the Harper Hill Loop, which is a favorite for my family. I saw rhododendrons, ferns, and many other familiar looking flora (as well as many foreign species), but as I walked, I felt like all that was missing was my family. I know my dog would have loved this little hike, there would have been so much to sniff! But anyway, once I reached the top of the hill, I was a little underwhelmed by the view, as a lot of trees obstructed the town. But I didn't really mind because the walk was good exercise and gave me a little reminder of home.
Once I descended down the hill and back into town, I just weaved my way through the streets. Every now and then I would have great views of the Calbuco volcano, which, although is not nearly as picture-perfect as Osorno, still offered a wondrous backdrop for my little walk through town. As I walked about, I bought a few souvenirs. I am trying to do a majority of my Christmas shopping here, because I will be getting back to the states in mid December. I also bought myself a little treat; a little banana ice cream pop, which you could peel just like a banana
As my day wound on, and after I got tired of walking around, I decided to just sit on the beach for a bit and look out at the incredible mountains and volcanos to my east. I can truly say this was one of the most spectacular places I have ever seen. But, eventually time came for me to hop back on the bus. This time I took a night bus back to the city, which went surprisingly smoothly, and I was able to get a fair amount of sleep. Now I am just relaxing in my room back at Casa Loca before classes will start in about an hour and a half. I am so fortunate to have gotten the opportunity to be here in Chile, and I feel even more lucky to have already seen so much of this beautiful country. Chile has reminded me of what a gorgeous world we live in, and I can't wait to explore more of it. Hasta luego!

Well, I've done lot's of research and I'm ready to jump in to this endeavor. My hive should be finished tomorrow (Langstroth) but I got a late start so my bees won't be here until mid-May. The anticipation is killing me. I attended my first local beekeeper's meeting yesterday in Wichita. Now I am just that much more fired up. I met some great people in my area. My wife thinks I'm having a mid-life crisis, but she claims that beekeeping is cheaper than a corvette so she is okay with it. Not sure she will feel the same once I have 100 hives. lol.

[quote user="JPizzack"]
[quote user="Kase-1"][quote user="JPizzack"]My brother brought home a 10 month old blue-nose pitbull last night that a friend of his rescued(she's a vet), and he wants to keep it as long as it gets along with Tizzie, our other pit. He named him Ace, because he was born with 1 eye, lol...poor *******.
I think Tizz is a bit jealous, so she plays coy at first, like she wants nothing to do with him when he wants to play, but then she kinda eggs it on at the same time. She almost ripped his ****ing head off when he went for a bone she was chewing on. I'm sitting on the couch, they are both chewing it....and then they got perfectly still for like 3-4 seconds...and that silence and lack of movement can only mean 1 thing: IT'S ON LIKE DONKEY KONG!!!
Sure as ****, these 2 playful pups become murderous death machines and try to kill each other, and im lunging at collars. They were fine, and stopped immediately, and then of course Tizz wants to play. Maybe it was all a bit too much on the first night. lol
He's very docile generally speaking, but he's still puppy mentality and wants to play. Very cute dog.[/quote]I love pitts, they get a horrendous rep because of what alot of their owners do to them.* If you treat them like a normal dog they will be the most loyal and respectful dogs out there
**** yea man. It pisses me off....but you cant change stupid people, so whatever. when ppl are "afraid" of my dog, whatever, **** it...let em be afraid. She's basically a muscular lap dog. such an attention *****! I've never even seen her bite anything but a dog bone, lol</P>[/quote]Nice Pizz, Congrats on the new dog!!! Dogs are great.

"Harry Potter . . . presents a vivid example of what can happen when the media is controlled by the hands of the very few," says Slack. "Real issues are being ignored because it's cheaper to cover celebrity gossip."
In the past year, the Harry Potter Alliance — mission: promote Rowling's messages of love, tolerance, and social justice — has launched grassroots campaigns to combat a host of issues, from the genocide in Darfur to racial and sexual discrimination. Slack has been troubled for some time by drastic cuts in foreign news coverage in favor of weather, sports, and tabloid items. But he was particularly disturbed by the inevitable repercussions of Martin's proposal to allow media companies to own both newspapers and radio/television stations in the country's top 20 markets. It came as no surprise to Slack when the FCC voted to accept Martin's plan on Tuesday.
On December 10, Slack partnered with stopbigmedia.com to release "Potterwatch" (stopbigmedia.com/potterwatch), a combination podcast and free-for-download wizard-rock compilation titled Rocking out Against Voldemedia. The podcast itself is modeled after the underground radio show in Deathly Hallows that was designed to get real news and information to the wizarding community in spite of Voldemort's restrictions. "They combined humor and real news, and that's what we're doing, too," says Slack. The podcast features wizard-rock tunes, a 1940s-style radio play, and an interview with a Darfur activist who lost her entire extended family to violence in the region.
The online-only ROAV album comprises 10 songs on the theme of media consolidation. The Remus Lupins' two-minute long "(Never) Do What You're Told" is the closest ROAV gets to a party track: over a driving synth beat, Alex Carpenter rails on the liars in the Ministry and the Daily Prophet newspaper: "Your tongue got confundus with the mistruths you told/No you can't fool us, 'cause this is getting old." "The Rebel Call," a plaintive, folksy guitar ballad by the Whomping Willows, has frontman Matt Maggiacomo lamenting, "People are drinking hate like butterbeer." In "Don't Believe It," Harry and the Potters fulfill their role as the Clash of wizard rock.

Everone has been fooled by the black man in the retired police car. For example if your speeding though town and your buddy warns you "Hey slow down there's a cop" soon after, you notice the spinners and relize its nothing more than a black man in a retired police car. You would then say "thats not a cop, thats a jiggapo! This word was created by combining the jigga in jiggaboo and the po from popo, slang for cop.

Re: Foodology
Hi Mary!
Glad you liked the wild boar/pork pate, the pistachios sound a nice twist **smile**!
Oh the salad with pears + diffenrent "bitter" salad leaves sounds yummy! I love that combo and at the moment you can get the most worderful varieties of fresh pears over here. Last week I got some tiny winy pears (aprox 4-5 cm) with a lovely velvety light brown skin...
Oh and I got some red skinned walnuts from a friend - on the outside they look quite normal, just smaller and very thin outer peel/skin and on the inside, the "papery" inner peel is bright red/violett and very tender. Looks stunning and would go wonderful in the salad.
What would you use for the balsamic-berry vinaigrette?!
All the best
ps this weekend a band where a friend of mine is in are having a gig. Don't know how it will turn out as I never listened to them and they are more Jazz-y, but will be fun (I hope).

Re: Foodology
Hi Claudia,
What did you think of the Arroz Con Coco? It's really good. When you have a chance, give it a go and let me know what you think.
It's sounds like you have all the ingredients to make the salad. Those walnuts sound really good. I don't think I have run across a variety like that. The little pears sound good too.!
Balsamic - Berry Vinaigrette
small amount of blue berries (this gives the vinaigrette depth in colour and flavour)
good balsamic vinegar
light brown sugar
sterling oil to emulsify
salt and freshly ground black pepper
Puree the berries in a food processor and process until smooth. Strain berry puree through a sieve to remove seeds, mainly. Put the berry puree back into the food processor. Add balsamic vinegar, light brown sugar, salt and pepper to taste. With the food processor on, slowly add oil to emulsify. The colour should be a deep red. It's interesting how the blue berries add to the depth of a nice dark pinkish / red hue. Adjust seasoning. The flavour should be sweet with a bit of tartness. It's lovely.
The gig the you are attending sounds like great fun! I do appreciate good jazz music. One of my all time favourites was Miles Davis. Let me know how it goes. Hope everything continues well for you in Vienna. Take care!

Re: Foodology
hi Mary,
The arrozo con coco sounds great - and for once all ingrediencences are available over here ;-) so I'll try it as soon as possible and keep you posted on the progress ;-)
I think I'll have the salad as a starter for the autumn dinnerparty next week - but only if the weatherforecast isn't snow... then it'll be a soup - for everyone to defrost....
If you like "bitter" salad leave here is a dressing I like (also from the RED cook-book ;-)
1-2 red onion, sliced
lollo rosso (is there an english word???)
- 1/2 tsp mustard powder
- 2-3 tbsp sherry vinegar
- 100 -125 ml Creme fraiche
- 4 tbsp grated parmesan
salt and pepper
Mix onion slices with salt and wash salad.
Mix all ingrediences for vinaigrette and season with salt and pepper.
Dry the onions and serve lollo rosso sprÃÂÂncled with onions and vinaigrette.
hope everything is well!
many greetings
ps. As about the gig - well it was.... "interesting". For them it was great - sold out; and they sold quite many CDs but it wasn't really my cup of tea. The mixed all kind of stiles Austropop - Rock - Jazz - Gospel and I just thought it was to much mix up and the songs they coverd - sorry interpreted - didn't sound to my liking. But then it's difficult with music... everyone has his/her own liking...
#54 Mon 08 Nov 04 9:54am
Re: Foodology
Hi Claudia,
This sounds great. They call lollo rosso, red leaf lettuce here; If I'm not mistaken. Thank you for the recipe. I like the salad and vinaigrette combination. Especially with the creme fraiche. Yum!
Glad to hear it went well for your friends with the gig. Yeah, you're right it did sound like to much of a mix......but, like you say......different strokes for different folks.
We are finally getting some cool weather here. I love that! It's so hot here in Miami. I welcome the change. Just finished a long hard week. It was great though, made loads of awesome dishes. Hope all is smooth in Vienna! Take care.

Re: Foodology
Hey Red,
Here's a recipe for some goat cheese balls that I make to accompany a wilted spinach salad with crumbled sausage vinaigrette.
Goat Cheese Balls
cylinders of goat cheese
extra virgin olive oil
fresh basil, fine chopped
chives, fine chopped
chervil, fine chopped
Italian parsely, fine chopped
pinenuts, toasted and ground
walnuts, toasted and ground
pistachios, toasted and ground
salt and white pepper
In a large bowl put in the goat cheese. Add some olive oil, enough to make the goat cheese pliable with your hands. Put in the herbs, salt, and white pepper. Mix very well. Taste and adjust seasonings. Proceed to make small individual balls. After making as many as you need, roll the goat cheese balls in the ground pinenuts, ground walnuts, and ground pistachios. With a salad you would want to serve 3 goat cheese balls of each kind. These are so yummy and compliment a salad so well.
Hope you like it!

Re: Foodology
Hi Claudia,
In the last couple of days we have made some lovely stuff. I made a pumpkin flan and zucchini cake with buttercream frosting that turned out really lovely.
Also a tastey wild rice , corn bread stuffing to accompany scored duck b.r.e.a.s.t cooked medium rare.
Also made whole prime rib roasts, bone in, seasoned with black cracked peppercorns, crushed corinader seeds, kosher salt, and a garlic and shallot crust. Sooooooooo good.
While enjoying making these, thinking about my friends in the forums and just wanted to share.
Hope you are having a great weekend.

Re: Foodology
Hi Mary!
Wow that sounds lovely and also thanks for the Cheese balls recipe! Could you post the pumpkin flan recipe - would really enjoy that! (got a thing about pumpkins at the moment ;-)
I had a wonderful weekend so far - we had an autumn dinnerparty yesterday and it was just wonderful!! (still a bit tired and the kitchen is a battle ground...)
We started off with a mediterranian fish soup (fennel, onion, tomatoes, white wine, orange peel, garlic, bay leaf, chili, fish and then pureed to a creamy finish), then swedish moose/elk with a lovely sauce, pumpkin risotto and veg. And Last but not least nut and chocolate creps. Loads of wine, coc.ktails, portwine and nice single malt whiskys ;-)
BTW found a lovely recipe for a salmon trout tatar... Takes a bit longer to prepare but is a smasher as a small starter! If you like the sound of that, just let me know and I'll post it ;-)
How is it going in Miami?
All the best!
Claudia ;-)

Re: Foodology
Hi Stefanie,
The prime rib turns out really yummy, full of flavour. Take the whole rib sprinkle generously with kosher salt and just rub it into the meat. Do the same with the black peppercorns and coriander seeds. (I sometimes like to put Montreal Seasoning by McCormick, which also gives the meat a nice flavouring).
In a food procesor puree garlic and shallots. Take this mixture and just rub and pack it on the meat. On top, the sides, every where.....
I slow cook my ribs from 180 - 215 degress F, in the oven, or alto sham for about 3 - 4 hours depending on the size of the prime rib, until rare to medium rare at most.
You can also broil the rib to get a nice crunchy crust and then slow cook. I find that the slow cooking abosorbs all the beautiful flavours you rubbed in during the prepping stage.
You can serve this with sweet potatoes, roasted garlic smashed potatoes, creamed spinach, side of your preference veggies. Au jus can be your sauce (drippings and juices from the rib).
Have fun making it and let me know how it all turned out.
*** Claudia,
I would love the recipes for your soup, elk, and salmon / trout tartare. I'll post the recipes you asked me for soon.
Do you like beef tartare?
Take care!

Hot Girls Get Away with Shit: Take the Shirt Off Your Back with Playmates Amanda Cerny and Nikki Leigh

Playmates Amanda Cerny and Nikki Leigh are out to get you topless.

Last week Anna Berglund tested her persuasion skills by asking passersby to support various unbelievable causes in "Petition Pranks." This week, Playmates Amanda Cerny and Nikki Leigh headed to Muscle Beach to give new meaning to taking the shirt off somebody's back.
Under the guise of two hardworking volunteers, a bikini-clad Amanda and Nikki asked various men to literally remove the shirts from their own backs for a charity in Africa. While some men seemed less concerned with the charity and more concerned with Amanda and Nikki removing their bikini tops, a surprising number of the guys still gave up the clothes off their backs.
Amanda tried to push it up a notch by asking one generous donor for his pants. And while that may be the first time in Amanda's life she was turned down, both girls fared pretty well not only in shirts but in offers for a supper club, shows, ride on a skateboard or "hangout," along with plenty of phone number requests. Real phone numbers, as one astute male pointed out.
Check out the rest of the series on Loud's very own Youtube Channel and stay tuned every Thursday at 7am PST for a new episode featuring Playboy Playmates.

Audit finds misused money at Tennessee nonprofit
Red flags included hundreds in charges at Toys-R-Us, iTunes
JOHNSON CITY, Tn. - A Johnson City nonprofit is making changes after discovering alleged serious financial impropriety.
The audit of the 2012 finances of the Appalachian Regional Coalition on Homelessness, or ARCH, was completed in March 2013 and given to ARCH in April.
The findings in the audit have acting Chairman of the Board Dave Hansard concerned. "There are some serious allegations, suggestions of mismanagement by a former employee," said Hansard.
He would not name the employee because of the ongoing internal investigation, but did confirm it was the former ARCH Executive Director.
A check of the WCYB archives shows Dreama Shreve was the ARCH executive director in 2012 during the time of the alleged mismanagement. A Linked-In profile under the same name shows Shreve was the Executive Director until January 2013.
The audit says "Significant deficiencies were disclosed during the audit of financial statements."
Among those deficiencies are allegations that Shreve used an ARCH credit card for personal purchases. The audit identifies charges at Toys-R-Us for $229, Christmas Place for $124, and iTunes for $810.
The audit says these charges were not properly documented, and should have been reimbursed by the Executive Director. "We've formed a finance committee to look more closely into the findings of the audit, "said Hansard.
Hansard told News 5 ARCH has already made some changes: no employee will have solitary control over a credit card, purchases over $500 have to be pre-approved, and any purchase over $50 needs a purchase order.
"We already have some recommendations that are in place and some others that are pending to make sure we never again encounter anything similar. The finance committee will review credit card statements on a monthly basis to make sure all statements are maintained and properly accounted for, "said Hansard.
Hansard doesn't believe there is a organization-wide problem and wants to reassure the public that ARCH is in good shape going forward. "There is nothing, no cause for concern, any finances here that would affect our community partners and their funding, "said Hansard.
Hansard did mention the 2011 audit showed an instance that raised some concern with Shreve's actions, but not to the level shown in the 2012 audit.

Unlike two disgruntled customers suing Subway in the US, New Zealanders can be pretty satisfied that they'll get their full foot of sandwich.
Subway in the US was sued this week over claims the world's biggest fast-food chain was ripping customers off by selling "foot-long" sandwiches that were slightly less than 12 inches.
Wanting to see how New Zealand subs stacked up, Herald reporters bought and measured seven foot-long sandwiches from Subway stores in Manukau, New Lynn, Newmarket, Takapuna and Queen St in Auckland, Lincoln Rd in Christchurch and Featherston St in central Wellington.
The sandwiches bought from Subway on Upper Queen St and New Lynn fell slightly short at just over 11 and a half inches and 11 and three quarter inches respectively.
But the remaining five all measured in at 12 inches each, with Manukau's slightly longer at almost 12 and a half.
Check out the photos here.
In a media statement, Subway New Zealand said any discrepancies in length are due to differences in the baking of its bread, which happens at each Subway location.
"We are committed to providing a consistent product delivering the same amount of bread to the customer with every order. The length however may vary slightly when not baked to our exact specifications," it said.
"We are reinforcing our policies and procedures in an effort to ensure our offerings are always consistent no matter which Subway restaurant you visit."
While Subway New Zealand had no problems with complaints over its foot-long, it told 3 News that occasional speculation over the size of the six-inch meant that staff kept a ruler under the counter to settle disputes.
How long is your Subway foot-long? Send your photos to us here.

In our daily quest to fake perfect skin, we've been guilty of layering on the foundation more than we'd like to admit. That's why we love this tinted makeup base, which keeps us from going overboard by giving us a flawless second skin. A cross between a primer and an extra-light foundation, the mousse-like formula fills in fine lines and minimizes pores — without making us look like we're wearing masks. Plus, the subtle floral perfume makes us feel oh so chic.
I'm not afraid to put money behind good products. I'm a sucker for anything that has hyaluronic acid in the product because this ingredient helps to slow the aging process / wrinkle prevention. But, as much as I wanted to love this product, it does not go on smoothly. In my opinion my skin looked paler and drier. I definitely did not look flawless. I will not use this nor purchase again.
I first recieved this product in my monthly box and i thought it was great. a little really goes a long way. once the sample ran out i purchased the the bigger tube. for some reason it was completely different than i remember. once applied to my face the color was very very different and it did not blend well. I even gave it to my best friend to try out and she was not pleased either. overall-- not worth the money. there are better products out there.1
I received a deluxe sample of this in a Pick Two Mystery Pack, and I was surprised by how much I liked it! It cools & soothes my skin as I put it on, and it's light but has great coverage at the same time. I've been using it this summer in place of a regular foundation, and I love it.4
This Product worked amazing at first but i don't know what it was once my face got use to it and didn't have the clean fresh look like i had when i first used it I was terribly upset but I know it works well if i use it sparely and not all the time. I still love this product and will buy it again!4
I am a huge By Terry Fan and was really wanting to love this product because I had read many rave reviews. I was not totally impressed. It seems to dry and set on my face before I have even finished applying and then looks streaky when I try to blend it with other makeup. It may work better for those who have oiler skin but it just didn't work for me. On the upside, it smells heavenly!3

Trying to think inside the box...
This was my plan for a bigger incubator also. I think I will find a way to bypass the timer. Looking for a scratch and dent unit is my plan now.
What temperature are you using in your setup?
You can't beat that Cabelas dehydrator for an incubator 'remodel'. I've used three of them for a few years ( For food) and they are really great quality inside and out.
I'm not sure why incubators go from the cheap-0 junk to thousands with nothing in between. Trust me, I've looked.
The lab-science incubators look OK, but a super small and cost hundreds if not thousands. You can't buy a used one for fear they've been cooking up an H1N1 stool sample somewhere along the line

I had to go local for some deep foundation this week and went in to pick it up. The board was up and listing queens for $33. I could not believe it.
I opened up my hives today and the dead out I was going to steal frames for my swarm traps still had a couple frames of young bees. I pulled a frame of capped brood, one with small eggs and found a superscedure cell looked like it was full of jelly for that hive (from one that was really booming and needed the brood nest opened). Problem was the frames with the brood and swarm cell was plastic. There was ton of drones in that boomer hive so I should be OK (about 90 minutes south of Lauri).
Why do we fall, sir? So that we might learn to pick ourselves up Alfred Pennyworth Batman Begins (2005)
Im curious have you done anymore graphing?
Yes, I have three graft frames in finisher hives now. The only thing holding me back from full production is the fact I am not quite ready to split up my hives to make the mating nucs. Almost though, they are looking good. Every few days I choose another strong hive and arrange it with a cloake board-then graft the next day and insert the frame for starting. By the time May gets here I'll have cells coming out my ears. Hopefully the weather will hold, it's been great with only a few days of rain.
People are screaming for queens around here. But I can only do what I can with the climate and timing. I am already 3 weeks ahead of schedule. I can have capped cells and virgins easily enough though. I wish folks were not so afraid of using them. They are cost effective and very early.
There are plenty of nice fat healthy drones available for mating.
It is really amazing the number of people panicked who bought nucs and packages recently that had dead queens. I'm telling them to combine the bees with a queenright hive and wait until the queens are availble. There is absolutly nothing bad about that..better to do that than to buy a poorly mated queen too early in the season.
I think folks don't realize it is not only weather but day length that stimulates the bees. Even my own order out of Texas has been delayed a month..and you'd think they are far ahead of Western Wa. with their hot weather. They are having one heck of a time getting queens mated there.
I'd like to wait until my hives are packed full before I break them up for mating nucs...get the most bang for my buck with the resources I have.
Heres the graft frame from the hive shown in my OP. 16 for 16..should be capped sometime tomorrow. This is one of my frames with not too many cell holders. Didn't want to push it too early. As soon as they are capped I'll finish them in another hive and reuse this hive to start a 30 cell frame. Nice going ladies

I was going to try to graph today for the first time but unfortunately doesn't look like the weather is going to cooperate. Good old western washington. Maybe it will break for me midday.
We are way ahead down here in Portland. 70 degrees for a week in April is unheard of. I am already getting swarm calls because the big swarm hogs are overwhelmed. Unfortunately my own are also in the trees 3 weeks early and I have also have not been able to respond. The warm spell we had at Easter must have pushed everything to swarm impulse. Drones are not an issue. Here is one I was playing with after watching the Palmer marking video (catch them by their wings works way easier than I was doing it).

Minz, Your links don't work.
Nothing swarmy in my yard, but I went though every single hive last month and made sure they had plenty of empty drawn woker sized comb above the brood nest + nice frames of feed.
There is still tons of pollen coming in and a light flow..If I could discribe my hives at the moment, in one word, it woud be 'Content'
Yeah, I don't even post for swarm collecting anymore on Craigs list. My ad just keeps getting flagged..by the 'swarm hogs' you mentioned, I assume. Too bad, I got some really good genetics from a couple swarms in 2011.

Hey everyone! My girlfriend and I are going to start putting together a custom mando for her and I wanted to get people's opinions. She is 5'5" skinny and I am concerned a BKBT bucket might look way too oversized. Do you think the FP CC Helmet would work out better size wise?
We also plan to pick up most of the body armor from BradleyFett, which i believe is ABS, which will also make it easy to trim down. Her Mando is really going to resemble Jango but with a different color scheme, probably a play on pinks
So any ideas on the helmet for a fem-mando without resorting to store bought gear?

This is the story about trying to work out our differences that we shared this morning.
God Bless!
The story is told of two congregations that were located only a few blocks from each other in a small community. They thought it might be better if they would merge and become one united, larger, and more effective body rather than two struggling churches. Good idea … but they were not able to pull it off. The problem? They could not agree on how they would recite "The Lord's Prayer." One group preferred "forgive us our trespasses," while the other group demanded "forgive us our debts."
So, as the local newspaper reported, "One church went back to its trespasses while the other returned to its debts."
(From a sermon by Bob Joyce, It's About the Kingdom, 8/4/2011)

Serves 4
Prep Time 45 min
Total Time 45 min.
Step 1
Combine flour, salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Dredge fish in flour. Heat 2 teaspoons of the oil in a Dutch oven or large sauté pan. Swirl the pan to coat the bottom evenly with oil, then add the fish. Cook, turning, just until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the fish to a plate and set aside.
Step 2
Add the remaining 1 teaspoon oil to the pan and reduce heat to medium. Add onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Slowly pour in wine and bring to a boil. Add broth (or diluted clam juice); bring to a boil. Add potatoes and carrots and return to a boil. Cover and cook over medium heat until the vegetables are just tender, about 20 minutes.
Step 3
Return the fish to the pan, reduce heat to low and cook, covered, until the fish is opaque in the center, 5 to 10 minutes longer. Transfer the fish and vegetables to a plate with a slotted spoon and keep warm.
Step 4
Increase the heat to high and boil the cooking liquid for 5 minutes to intensify the flavors. Whisk together egg, 3 tablespoons lemon juice and dill (or fennel) in a medium bowl. Gradually whisk a little of the hot cooking liquid into the egg mixture, then pour the egg mixture into the remaining cooking liquid in the pan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened (do not boil) and the liquid reaches a temperature of 160ºF on an instant-read thermometer, 1 to 2 minutes. Return the fish and vegetables to the pan and heat through. Taste and adjust seasonings, adding more lemon juice, if desired.

America has spoken and Barack Obama will retain his spot in the White House for another four years. SiliconANGLE Founder John Furrier has been following the election very closely. He said on the political level, Romney had a strong fiscal policy while Obama's social agenda was spot on, making the ideal party one that is liberal socially and fiscal conservative. Furrier identified the two central areas around this year's election. He believes the Republicans are absolutely "out to lunch" around what the pulse is in this country; they seemed unable to recognize the diversity of the voting audience. The second huge impact on the election was the social angle. Smartphones, social media and big data played a massive role in highlighting the demographic shift of the actual voters.
Furrier credits Obama with laying his ground game in the summer of 2011. Obama collected a mass of volunteers and experts in big data, and he used data in targeting email messages and getting the word out. Obama had two major strategies that secured his re-election. One was his actual, physical ground game – he went to battleground states like Colorado and Ohio, getting there early and aligning himself with the diverse audiences. But the real key to Obama's win, says Furrier, was that he nailed the virtual cyberspace ground game. He established the big data angle, essentially using data in targeting voters, in email messages, and in social media.
The demographics are clear – the country is about hope and growth, which is why Romney's fiscal policies were attractive. However, Obama speaks to the heart of the upward mobility wanna-be entrepreneurs, especially immigrants who want to be entrepreneurs and contribute to society. Ultimately, today's tech culture has shifted the game in terms of voting. There's a whole new generation of people coming into the voting electorate who are young and have a definite perspective about what the future should look like.
Furrier said, "When the book is written on this election, it's going to be written as big data,
internet culture, and mobile phones as a way to get people to share their opinions, and that . . . allowed everyone to have a voice and connect with somebody."
Furrier spoke about meeting with the Chief Data Scientist for Obama's campaign back in September and what they had in place for their social media strategy. They didn't use social media to spam people and hound them to vote, but rather inspired people by establishing what the signals are for the audience, and then aligning with those audiences to deliver the messages they wanted to receive. Without big data, Furrier does not believe Obama would have won.

To forget that one is holding down a key on the keyboard. When performing unusual or complex keypress combinations, it is easy for one to actually forget one is pressing a key, and keep it held down with their finger. When this happens, they may believe that their application is glitching by continually performing one action, such as printing a long line of "z". Depending on the situation, it may actually take a few moments for the user to think about the problem and find the solution to it.
I was wondering why my my pages kept scrolling down without my permission, then I realized I was doing a keyfart on the down arrow.

Effective communication is the glue that binds members to their organizations. Without proper and timely dissemination of information, you can't have open debate, initiatives get stalled, and organizations flounder.
In the past two years, healthy debate has and continues to take place on dairy policy, for example. Many organizations are engaged in the process. It serves as an example of how to exchange ideas and build consensus. Unfortunately, in recent months, there have been cases where groups haven't met that standard.
At what is normally a routine annual meeting, members of Holstein Canada voted to slow down a potential merger between Holstein Canada and the Canadian Dairy Network. The proposed amalgamation would put the nation's largest breed organization and the genetic and milk recording center under one umbrella. By over a 75 percent majority, Holstein Canada members asked the board to revisit its merger decision. According to the requested review, if the board still sees the necessity to merge, then members want an independent analysis of the business deal and have the final report shared with all breeders.
Over the past couple years, the U.S. Council on Dairy Cattle Breeding (CDCB), which represents A.I., DHI, and breed organizations, has been holding discussions on the future of genetic evaluations. While these efforts may ultimately develop better ways to function in the genomic era, we fear that too many decisions are being decided behind closed doors.
The recent biannual CDCB meeting with all industry partners lasted less than an hour. There was little mentioned about any council business much less the ongoing work by its Dairy Data Working Group that could reshape the genetic evaluations. This lack of discussion surprises us since nearly all CDCB member organizations are either cooperatives or associations with farmer-elected leadership.
Not only does effective communication dispel misinformation, transparent and timely communication is a must to move our industry forward. It is clear that Canadian breeders voted for a more open, visible disclosure and debate on issues that affect dairy cattle breeding and record keeping. U.S. dairy producers should expect no less. There are too many dollars invested in semen, DHI charges, and breed association fees to have them used without the best interests of all dairy farmers being put first.
This editorial appears in the July 2011 issue of Hoard's Dairyman on page 454.

When it comes to a worthy cause, Hoosiers are often willing to lend a hand. But unfortunately, there are unscrupulous organizations that attempt to take advantage of this good will. Learn what to look for when you're asked to give money, and you'll help ensure that your donations go where they're supposed to.
Charities use either their own "bona fide" employees or volunteers to make solicitation calls, or they may hire a professional fundraiser. The guidelines for each type of fundraising are listed below.
Indiana law does not require charitable organizations soliciting donations to register or report their fundraising campaigns to the state if they are using their own bona fide employees or volunteers. The vast majority of charitable organizations use donations wisely. However, some charities spend a majority of their contributions on administrative expenses or simply more fundraising. Since the Attorney General's Office does not have the authority to register charities, records are not kept on the amount of money a charity spends on fundraising and administrative expenses versus programs and services as they relate to the charity's purpose.
Under Indiana law, a professional solicitor who solicits contributions for, or on behalf of, a charity must register with the Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division and provide information about its solicitation campaigns on behalf of charities. The information provided must include a copy of the solicitor's contract with the charity. This contract must contain the percentage of gross contributions or revenue that the charity will receive.
A list of all current solicitation campaigns between a professional solicitor and a charity can be found here. This list includes the name of the charity, the name of the professional solicitor, and the starting and ending dates of the solicitation campaign. The percentage of gross contributions or revenue the charity has received for previous campaigns is available on a separate report.
