So I finally replied to one of the Craigslist bee removal adds, partly because I would like to integrate some feral stock (that aren't africanized of course) in the beeyard, and partly because the person was just down the street.
I went over this evening to measure and take pictures of the hive. It is located in the back of a mobile home. The bees seem pretty docile, since I was able to measure around there hive, without even a guard be checking me out. About 80 " off the ground so a ladder will be needed and I plan on rigging up a Bushkill style vac system this weekend. I 've got some pictures here, I am just wondering where to start cutting and how high? The paneling seems to be some kind of composite with the top and bottom being aluminum. What tools should I bring on this trip?
Thanks for any advice. This should be quite an experience.

[quote user="JPizzack"]lol thank you for your consideration[/quote]

I watched the basketball game. The NBA playoffs are too stressful for me to watch non stop. So I clicked a tad, and also argued with Lawl on the MB about absolutely nothing. (I think he was drunk)

But anyway, the only think I saw when I clicked onto Game of Thrones was some nice breasts.

I hope that doesn't give anything away.

I wanted to record Game of Thrones and watch the game, but I was also recording American Ninja Warrior at the same time!....I can only record 2 things at once and if I do so I have to watch one of them otherwise it doesn't work, so I watched Game of Thrones then watched the Game from halftime till finish.

Widening the thematic scope without sacrificing too much of the claustrophobia that made the original 1979 Alien universally spooky, Prometheus takes the trophy for this summer's most adult-oriented blockbuster entertainment. The movie with leave your mouth agape for its entire runtime, first with its majestic exploration of an alien planet and conjectures on the origins of the human race, second with its gross-out body horror that leaves no spilled gut to the imagination. Thin characters feel more like pawns in Scott's sci-fi prequel, but stunning visuals, shocking turns and grand questions more than make up the shallow ensemble. "Epic" comes in many forms. Prometheus sports all of them.
Based on their discovery of a series of cave drawings all sharing a similar painted design, Elizabeth (Noomi Rapace) and Charlie (Logan Marshall-Green) are recruited by Weyland to head a mission to another planet, one they believe holds the answers to the creation or life on Earth. Along for the journey are Vickers (Charlize Theron), the ruthless Weyland proxy, Janek (Idris Elba) a blue collar captain, a slew of faceless scientists, and David (Michael Fassbender), HAL 9000-esque resident android who awakens the crew of spaceship Prometheus when they arrive to their destination. Immediately upon descent there's a discovery: a giant mound that's anything but natural. The crew immediately to scope out the scene, zipping up high-tech spacesuits, jumping in futuristic humvees and heading out to the site. What they discover are the awe-inspiring creations of another race. What they bring back to the ship is what they realize may kill their own.
The first half of Prometheus could be easily mistaken for Steven Spielberg's Alien, a sense of wonder glowing from every frame not too unlike Close Encounters. Scott takes full advantage of his fictional settings and imbues them with a reality that makes them even more tantalizing. He shoots the vistas of space and the alien planet like National Geographic porn, and savors the interior moments on board the Prometheus, full of hologram maps, sleeping pods and do-it-yourself surgery modules, with the same attention. Prometheus is beautiful, shot in immersive 3D that never dampers Dariusz Wolski's sharp photography. Scott's direction seems less interested in the run-or-die scenario set up in the latter half of the film, but the film maintains tension and mood from begging to end. It all just gets a bit…bloodier.
Jon Spaihts and Damon Lindelof's script doesn't do the performers any favors, shuffling them to and fro between the ship and the alien construction without much room for development. Reveals are shoehorned in with out much setup (one involving Theron's Vickers that's shockingly mishandled), but for the most part, the ensemble is ready to chomp into the script's bigger picture conceits. Rapace is a physical performer, capable of pulling off a grisly scene involving an alien, some sharp objects and a painful procedure (sure to be the scene of the blockbuster season. Among the rest of the crew, Fassbender's David stands out as the film's revelatory performance, delivering a digestible ambiguity to his mechanical man that playfully toys with expectations from his first entrance. The creature effects in Prometheus will wow you, but even Fassbender's smallest gesture can send the mind spinning. The power of his smile packs more of a punch than any facehugger.
Much like Lindelof's Lost, Prometheus aims to explore the idea of asking questions and seeking answers, and on Scott's scale it's a tremendous, unexpected ride. A few ideas introduced to spur action fall to the way side in the logic department, but with a clear mission and end point, Prometheus works as a sweeping sci-fi that doesn't require choppy editing or endless explosions to keep us on the edge of our seats. Prometheus isn't too far off from the Alien xenomorphs: born from existing DNA of another creature, the

House committee members upset with lack of answers
Gov. Jay Nixon's staff was questioned by a House committee about what they knew regarding procedure changes at DMVs
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. - State lawmakers are getting frustrated trying to find out who is responsible for procedure changes at licensing bureaus.
ABC 17 News has been following developments for months. Lawmakers have tried to figure out why the Department of Revenue started to require scanning of personal information like birth certificates or mortgage statements to get a driver's license.
Lawmakers believe it was to comply with the federal program REAL ID. DOR officials have maintained that is not the case.
Several members of Gov. Jay Nixon's staff voluntarily testified Tuesday. Many of them were responsible for decisions made in the DOR.
The questions started off direct and to the point and committee members quickly became upset because nobody could remember important details or point out who was in charge of making decisions.
Lawmakers spent the majority of the day talking with DOR's former liaison and former legislative liaison. They were supposed to have knowledge of the inner workings of DOR. Lawmakers asked them to remember specific conversations or actions. Neither was able to give them specifics.
Almost every answer came back to a central theme: they weren't trying to comply with REAL ID because the state passed a law to prohibit it. Committee members say they're starting to get upset because everyone they talk to doesn't have information.
"No one to this point has told us, after the general assembly passed the law and the governor signed it, the Department of Revenue stopped doing 1,2,3,4, no one," former DOR director and current committee member Omar Davis said.
Committee members say the ultimate goal is to find the person who gave permission to make procedure changes. Everyone testifying has said they weren't the one making the decisions, and they don't know who was.
Witnesses say even though it appears changes were made to comply with federal law, that's not why they were done. But nobody was able to provide details about why the changes were made.

Have you ever used the crimp wired foundation with no hooks in a grooved top/grooved bottom frame?
How did it work out?
I thought to cross wire, FYI.
I have been thinking about it, and thought I'd run it by you...
Have you ever used the crimp wired foundation with no hooks in a grooved top/grooved bottom frame?
How did it work out?
I thought to cross wire, FYI.
I have been thinking about it, and thought I'd run it by you...
Thousands of times for 38 years, medium depth, deep depth and jumbo depth, all with a full set of cross wires. I only used cleated top bars and hooked foundation early on, found it a unnecessary, a hassle and extra work and a weaker frame. I bought hooked small cell foundation recently because that was all that was available, I cut off the hooks.
I would cross wire the frames, and embed the wires.
I wasn't sure, last year I tried wax for the first time, with wedge top bars, I'm leaning toward all wax from here on out. Problem is, I already have a lotta GTB/GBB frames that I need to use up, but didn't really want to buy a 25# box just to find out that it's a lousy method.
Thanks for your tips, if I could pick your brains a bit deeper...
When you wax the top do you just tack it in 3 or 4 spots, or are we filling in the entire groove, or does it really matter?
Do you set the foundation to bow in, so that it pushes against the cross wires, before you embed it? That would be better than having the foundation want to pull away from the cross wires, no?
I guess I'd figure it out, after a few tries, but I was hoping you guy's could save me some R&D, that would be better spent on some R&R...
I do not wax mine in, unnecessary and hard to clean during renovation. If the foundation and frames are the correct size there should be no bowing. If properly embedded the foundation will not pull away.
[QUOTE=Michael Palmer;292257 even better if you dip the top bar in hot water for a bit, to soften the wax.[/QUOTE]
Or play your torch/heatgun over the groove
Thanks guy's,
You've convinced me to give it a shot...and taught me just enough to be dangerous...
You can get a simmerer at Target.
Dadant has the fasteners as well.

I got a question for you guys.

Who would you rather have starting at runningback for the Giants. (during there prime)

Tiki Barber or O.J Anderson?

I'm leaning toward Tiki....he had a couple ridiculous seasons in his prime.

I'd Take O.J. over Tiki, that's just the style of RB I like better....I still like Jacobs over Bradshaw (although I don't think either is great anymore)
[/quote]neither do i. bj.....just isnt the force he used to be. he had a horrible game sunday.
bradshaw-how many operations is this guy going to have on his feet and ankles? i say we go for a hb or two during next years draft.
this team needs a hb, bad. eli cant do it alone.
Maybe Scott can be the runningback of the future.

I've received this article of Jay Turla as guest post, and so I gladly publish it:
There's a new GNU/Linux distro designed to help you in every aspect of your mobile forensics, mobile malware analysis, reverse engineering and security testing. It's called Santoku Linux. Santoku is a general purpose kitchen knife which originated from Japan, meaning "three virtues" or "three uses". This distribution is not from Japan, but the name was suggested by Thomas Cannon of viaForensics (who happens to be the project leader of Santoku Linux) because the distribution was crafted specifically for Mobile Forensics, Mobile Malware Analysis, and Mobile Security Testing. The current alpha release is based on a fork of the OWASP (Open Web Application Security Project) MobiSec Ubuntu distro thus making this alpha release an OWASP MobiSec Remix (released under GPL) with added tools from viaForensics and some of its contributors or supporters. This project or platform is sponsored and launched by viaForensics which is a known and very innovative digital forensics and security firm that focuses or specializes on computer and mobile forensics, mobile application security, enterprise security, information security and penetration testing, and forensics training.

There's No Murder Gene in Mental Illness

The term "mental illness" has been thrown around as a quick and easy solution for gun enthusiasts and media alike. Mental illness, in turn, is conflated with violence through a process of loaded renaming. Mentally ill people are "disturbed," "threatening," "bad people," and ultimately counter-cultural figments of fear induced imaginations. Essentially what this means is that there are those who need psychiatric treatment and then there is the rest of the world that needs to protect themselves from those people. The truth of mental illness is it is not a static concept, an ailment reducible to genetic rhetoric, there is no "murderer gene." Tragedies are not questions, hence there are never any answers.

Detroit bankruptcy creditors reveal bids for DIA artwork
Detroit bankruptcy creditors, led by Financial Guaranty Insurance Co., have lined up four tentative bids of as high as $2 billion to purchase all or parts of the Detroit Institute of Arts collection.
In a motion filed in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Detroit today, the creditors have asked the court to order the city of Detroit to cooperate with the interested parties so they can conduct due diligence on the DIA art collection.
Three firms made bids to purchase all or part of the collection. Another offered exit financing to the city, secured by the art collection.
The firms and their bids are:
• Catalyst Acquisitions LLC/Marc Bell Capital Partners LLC, which submitted a nonbinding indication of interest in purchasing the entire art collection for $1.75 billion
• Art Capital Group LLC, which submitted a nonbinding term sheet, offering to provide the city with an exit facility of up to $2 billion, secured by the entire art collection.
• Poly International Auction Co. Ltd. which, on behalf of a client, submitted a nonbinding indication of interest in purchasing all Chinese works in the collection for up to $1 billion.
Montieth M. Illingworth, a spokesman for Art Capital Group in New York said in an emailed statement that the company's proposed financing would enable "the people and community of Detroit to keep "treasured art assets," since it would not require the sale of the art collection.
The DIA collection "is one of the country's most important collections and it should stay in and with the people of Detroit," he said. "We also believe that our proposal addresses the requirements of creditors and is superior to the alternatives that have been made available today."
In the court motion, the creditors said that beyond the four tentative offers of interest, FGIC's financial adviser Houlihan Lokey received a significant number of verbal expressions of interest by other parties unable or unwilling to provide written indications of interest by the April 4 deadline.
All of the offers were prompted by Houlihan's collection of publicly available information about the art housed at the DIA to create a catalog shared with parties potentially interested in acquiring parts of the collection.
"Any party is entitled to make any motion it deems appropriate," Emergency Manager Kevyn Orr said today in an emailed statement.
"The condition of the grand bargain funders is clear: If one piece of art is sold, the $816 million goes away. And Chapter 9 law is equally clear: The city cannot be compelled to liquidate an asset."
The Detroit Institute of Arts declined to comment.
While the city technically owns the entire DIA collection, Orr commissioned the appraisal only for the pieces acquired with city funding and therefore not bound by any donor restrictions that would prevent its sale.
In January, Judge Steven Rhodes, who is presiding in the Detroit bankruptcy case, denied the creditors' motion to create an independent committee to evaluate the worth of the DIA assets as part of Detroit's bankruptcy proceedings.
The state subsequently joined with a group of foundations and the DIA itself to collectively offer $815 million to spin the museum and its collection to a nonprofit, insulating the artwork from sale and reducing the cuts that pension holders will see.
Orr has included the so-called "Grand Bargain" in his plan of adjustment for the city.
The new proposals present alternative potential transactions for the art that could generate value "far in excess of that to be received pursuant to the DIA settlement," the creditors said in the motion.
Crain's reporter Chad Halcom contributed to this report.
Clarification: When referring to the DIA art that Christie's appraised, the story should have stated it was of city-purchased art.

Renegade Chef: Dad's Meat Marinade
Dad's Meat Marinade
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons sugar

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Tobasco sauce
2 tablespoons minced onion
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 teaspoons cracked pepper
Combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Pour over 2 pounds of steak, cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. If it is necessary to use any of the meat for an eye-compress, rinse thoroughly before application, otherwise this recipe makes enough marinade for 4 servings of meat.

St. Clair Annex is such an institution in Westerly (Watch Hill is a village in the town) that locals switch lunchtime allegiances when it opens for the season, summer tourists plan family outings for ice cream, and out-of-town Rhode Islanders make expeditions to munch lobster rolls.
ST. CLAIR ANNEX |401.348.8407 | 141 Bay St., Watch Hill | Open Mid-April Till Columbus Day | Breakfast Daily, 7:45–10:45 Am; Lunch + Dinner Daily, 11 Am–8 Pm | No Credit Cards | Byob | Bathroom Not Accessible
We started with a bowl of Rhode Island clear chowder (cup $4, bowl $5), which was heavy on the bacon, giving it a smoky taste that Bill loves. I would be content with the clams and potatoes, but I know that this is one of the traditional Rhody recipes. They also offer "New England creamy" chowder (co-owner Joann Nicholas was stirring a big pot of it when we were there).
The Nicholases are husband and wife George and Joann and son James, the fourth and fifth generations, respectively, to run St. Clair. The business began with a New London candy store, started in 1887 by two brothers from the Greek isle of Lesbos. They passed the business on to their nephews (seven brothers eventually emigrated from the island) — one of them was George's grandfather John.
The candy store and ice cream parlor called St. Clair were in downtown Westerly for many years until they moved to Watch Hill in 1942. Since the ice cream was made in a shop next door to the candy store, the "Annex" became part of the title. After a fire destroyed the business in 1973, the Nicholases reopened in '74 with the full title of St. Clair Annex Ice Cream and Sandwich Shop, not to mention the outdoor popcorn machine, a leftover from the business in the '40s.
Indeed, the décor is '50s clam shack — pine paneling, open beams, heavyweight round ice cream parlor tables and chairs, with separate counters for ordering lunch/dinner items and for ordering banana splits, turtle sundaes, or just a single-dip cone or cup of ice cream ($3 for a single scoop, $4.50 for a double). Flavors range from the usual suspects to banana nut chip, black cherry chocolate chip, vanilla almond crunch, and peppermint stick. You can also order St. Clair's fresh-squeezed lemonade (and its variations with strawberry or grape juice) at both counters.
Bill was drawn to the grape lemonade ($3.25 small, $4.75 large) and murmured about making it at home. The question is, Would he take the time to squeeze the lemons? The Nicholases made this "ade" quite special.
From a list of nine grinders (including BLT, cheeseburger, and pepper and egg variations) and a lineup of five grilled cheese possibilities (with tomato, bacon, ham, bacon/tomato, or tuna) and nine sandwiches (three burgers, hot dogs, three chicken choices, a lobster roll, and a tuna roll), we predictably ordered a lobster roll ($12 with fries) and the newest sandwich, a chicken bistro ($6.50).

Did Obama use the NEA to stump for ObamaCare?
posted at 12:15 pm on September 21, 2009 by Ed Morrissey
The White House has tried to campaign hard for its health-care overhaul, but now allegations have arisen that the Obama administration abused its power by pushing the National Endowment for the Arts into campaigning for it as well. Andrew Breitbart's Big Hollywood publishes today the transcript of a conference call hosted by the NEA in which they push grant recipients to speak out on behalf of Obama's top domestic-policy agenda item. If true, the White House may have substantiated one of the arguments conservatives use for the abolition of the NEA as well as abused its power — and they have the audio to prove it:
On August 10th, the National Endowment for the Arts, the White House Office of Public Engagement, and the Corporation for National and Community Service hosted a conference call with a handpicked arts group. This arts group played a key role in Obama's arts effort during his election campaign, as declared by the organizers of the call, and many on the call played a role in the now famous Obama Hope poster.
Much of the talk on the conference call was a build up to what the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) was specifically asking of this group. In the following segment, Buffy Wicks, Deputy Director of the White House Office of Public Engagement, clearly identifies this arts group as a pro-Obama collective and warns them of some "specific asks" that will be delivered later in the meeting. …
What were the "asks"? They were for this pro-Obama arts group to create art on several hotly debated political issues, including health care:
- "I would encourage you to pick something, whether it's health care, education, the environment, you know, there's four key areas that the corporation has identified as the areas of service."
- "And then my ask would be to apply artistic, you know, your artistic creative communities utilities and bring them to the table."
- "Again, I'm really, really honored to be working with you; the National Endowment for the Arts is really honored."
- "You're going to see a lot more of us in the next four and hopefully eight years."
The NEA supposedly is "dedicated to supporting excellence in the arts, both new and established; bringing the arts to all Americans; and providing leadership in arts education," according to its website. It has nothing at all to do with health care, tax policy, or the environment. Nor should it; if it belongs in government at all, it should restrict itself to its area of expertise, not abuse taxpayer patronage by becoming a propaganda arm of the current administration.
Does this break the law? That's questionable, but it certainly breaks the trust of the American taxpayer. We do not fund the NEA for it to produce Leni Riefenstahl-type art. If the NEA wants to go into policy activism, then it should become a private foundation with private funding, and Congress should cut it loose.
The NEA was bad enough when it was using tax dollars to fund such memorable art as placing a crucifix in a jar of urine. Congress should completely defund the NEA at this juncture and tell the Obama administration to end its attempts to build propaganda machines in the executive branch.
Update: My friend Kerry Picket at the Washington Times wants to activate an Army of Davids to get information on the teleconference's participants (via Michelle):
We invite bloggers and other interested readers to check out the names on the list for themselves. Some individuals are more well known than others. We're looking for solid, well-sourced information we can use to expand our coverage and generate new stories. This is an example. Here are some ideas on what to start with:
Is the information about them accurate/up to date?
Have these individuals been involved in Democratic politics?
Are they campaign donors? To whom?
Since the Aug. 10 conference call, have any of these individuals been involved in political activism related to health care, environment or education, the subjects suggested by the NEA in the call?
Are they members of any of the 21 arts organizations that endorsed health care reform two days after the call?
Are any of them involved in other arts groups funded through the NEA or through state-level arts agencies funded by the NEA?
Do they have a history of being involved with dubious causes such as 9/11 "Truther" statements?
How many of them have written for The Huffington Post (we've noticed a couple)?
When you've got something good, stick links to the supporting information in our comments or a post on your blog or email us at [email protected] . We'll do our best to stay on top of any new information and credit the person who dug it up.
A couple quick things to keep in mind. We've already attempted to contact the people on the list, so there is no need to follow in our footsteps. As they respond, we'll add an updated tally in another post on the Water Cooler. Second, the people on the list are private citizens who were asked to be on a call where a National Endowment for the Arts official went way too far in pushing for artists and arts groups to get behind the administration agenda. The people on the call didn't neccesarily do anything controversial or wrong. The NEA and the White House are the ones who have gone too far.
Update II: Don't miss Big Government's post on Buffy Wicks, who participated in the call and has ties to … ACORN! Did that background help her pimp for Obama among the artist community?

I was looking through an older (early '70's) bee book. It suggested using 1/2 teaspoon of ammonium nitrate in a well lit, hot smoker to knock out a hot colony. The burning ammonium nitrate produces nitrous oxide & knocks out the colony for a while.
Have you heard of this? Does it work without killing too many bees?.
We usually just requeen a mean colony. That usually fixes the problem without too much loss of bees.

Sydney 88
Breakers 99
The New Zealand Breakers qualified for the third successive Australian NBL grand final after sweeping Sydney today, setting up a long-awaited rematch with great rivals Perth.
The Breakers initially looked in trouble against a desperate Kings side at the Sydney Entertainment Centre, but the two-time defending champions flipped the switch in a huge third quarter to pull away and eventually seal a 99-88 victory.
Coming on the back of Thursday's 17-point victory in game one, the semifinal sweep is the Breakers' first in franchise history. Their next task, beginning Sunday afternoon at Vector Arena, is one with which they have a bit more familiarity.
The Breakers have ended Perth's last two seasons, in an epic 2-1 grand final win in 2012 and in an equally-charged semifinal series the previous year. Perth were the only team capable of staying within touching distance of the Breakers' incredible 24-4 regular season record in this campaign, and the Wildcats did hand the Breakers three of their four defeats.
But the way the Breakers soaked up everything Sydney threw at them before unleashing an offensive outburst of their own today does bode well for their chances of becoming just the second side to seal an ANBL three-peat.
The Kings looked intent on sending the series back to Auckland for a deciding third game, holding a nine-point lead midway through the third quarter. But just six minutes later they trailed by 10, with the game, and their season, virtually over by the final period.
Alex Pledger led the Breakers with a big double-double (18 points and 12 rebounds) while CJ Bruton did what he does at this time of year, making several key baskets in a 21-point haul.
The Breakers now have a week to prepare for another inevitably wild battle against the Wildcats. Perth, who completed a sweep of their own over Wollongong yesterday, will hope the extended gap will allow influential guard Damian Martin to return from a calf injury.
The Breakers may also need time to recover from the first-half scare provided by Sydney today. After James Harvey nailed a buzzer-beating three to hand the Kings a 26-33 lead at the opening break, Sydney resumed the second quarter on a scoring spree and an 8-0 run midway through the period saw their lead swell to 10.
Some solid play at both ends of the floor from Pledger then helped the Breakers embark on an 8-1 run of their own and pull within three, but the home side extended their advantage to six at the major break. The Breakers were holding their own in most halftime statistical categories and the deficit owed as much to Sydney's success from deep (six of eight) as it did to any perceived problems in the defending champions' play.
Potentially 20 minutes away from elimination, Sydney came out for the second half scrapping for their playoff lives, diving for loose balls and flying about recklessly for rebounds. But the Breakers didn't establish their best road record (11-3) by wilting in the face of such intensity and 10 straight points gave the visitors their first lead since the opening quarter.
Sensing blood, postseason assassin Bruton then nailed three straight buckets and, after Corey Webster's triple beat the buzzer, the Breakers took a 10-point lead into the final quarter.
The frantic finish to the third appeared to crush the Kings' spirits and the Breakers never looked like letting their lead slip in the fourth, setting up a Perth rematch most have been waiting for.
Sydney 88 (Madgen 29, Harvey 25, Crosswhite 11)
Breakers 99 (Bruton 21, Pledger 18, Abercrombie 17)

|st: RE: question on datatypes
|Thu, 20 Oct 2005 10:25:08 +0100
This is a frequent question on Statalist. If you what are reading in, although it looks like a standard numeric variable with a decimal point, is really some kind of identifier or code, then I think by far the safest strategy is to read it in as a string variable and then do string manipulations on it. This can include removing the point. Even if you read it in as -float- and then convert to -long- it is all too likely that errors will be introduced in the last digit or so. As a thread yesterday advised, -search precision- and look at the FAQs there mentioned. The underlying issue is that computers are really doing calculations in binary, not decimal. A massive amount of cleverness goes into hiding this fact from the user, and even the programmer, but it is inescapable and on occasions can bite you. Nick email@example.com NEYMOTIN, FLORENCE > I have variables that are coded in > as 2-3 digits and 6 decimal places > after that, e.g. 150.089873 and I want to convert this to get > rid of the decimal places so it > looks like 150089873 but when I just multiply by 1000000 then > it keeps storing it as a "float" > display i.e. 1.5E8 and more than that, the last decimal > places are actually INCORRECT in the new > version...it will say 1.50089875 instead...which is > INCORRECT.

Hi All!
Thank you Qbee for volunteering to run our group! I love playful names, for example One-der Bunch! Sort of a play on words.
Anyways I guess my theme is for a modern look. Not necessarily a thing, but I hope you all love my row. My vote is for the rows not to be attached since I would like the option to put them in order when they come home. I am more than happy to sew on any sashing if someone provides one, but I will wait to add my own on later since the color schemes could affect what I want to use.
I look forward to doing this and having fun!

text: Nagarjuna, in his seminal text, The Fundamental Wisdom of the Middle Way, summarized the vast teachings of the Buddha and used logical reasoning to prove the validity of his words. Entering the Middle Way is Chandrakirti's explanation of Nagarjuna's work. Its sixth chapter, which comprises the majority of the text, has four main sections: an explanation of how in genuine reality phenomena do not truly arise; a refutation of the Mind-Only School's assertion that mind truly exists; a refutation of the true existence of the personal self; and an explanation of the sixteen emptinesses taught by"the Buddha in the Transcendent Wisdom Sutras. The Moon of Wisdom is thus a book that explains the Buddha's ultimate teachings, how to gain confidence in them, and how to put them into practice in one's"own life to the great benefit of oneself and others.

Discussion in 'Members Zone' started by Sarge, Aug 14, 2009.
Morning Cbz. Morning Zoners, assorted characters and neer-do-wells. Have a great day.
Morning Pops, Leon and everyone else.
Gonna miss you Joe Frazier - RIP.
Everyone have a great day ahead!
Hey Pops --hey Leon,Sarge and hey yall
Morning Pops. Morning Fellas, Kristie. Morning Zoners.
Well, I echo Sarge. Joe Frazier was one heck of a fighter and my favorite growing up. I'm sorry to see him pass.
Everybody, have a great day.
Good afternoon, Cbz and all Zoners. It's sad to see Frazier die, particularly after the recent appearances with Ali. There was a story about a photo session with them both, during which Ali's hand tremors were quite pronounced. Apparently Frazier gently reached down and held Ali's hand still during that shot. Those present were quite moved, considering the bitterness that previously existed between the two. The "Thrilla in Manila" still ranks as one of the most incredible fights ever. R.I.P., Smokin' Joe.
I watched cancer kill my mother over 20 years ago. I can only imagine the pain his family experienced. Look in on him, Cbz, but watch for the left hook.
Have a good day, folks.
I had the displeasure of losing my mother to cancer about 20 years ago also and it was shortly after thanksgiving were she took a turn for the worse and never recovered and died around the new year, she was the glue that held the family together after she passed we all sorta just drifted apart.... (sigh)
Joe was a good one...
Thanks for the memories...there is another guy I miss ( Bob Hope)
I listen during the day to internet radio you guys may like the channel I found it is called Breezy Radio 1700AM... I strongly suggest you give it a listen brings back wonderful memories
Morning Pops and a good humpday morning to all the Morning Crew.
It is suppose to be 70 degrees here in upstate NY so I took the day off. I am going up to the cabin to put the Christmas lights up and get the place ready for snowmobiling this winter. Perfect day to get it ready.
You folks have a great day ahead.
Morning Cbz. Morning Sarge, it sounds like a great way to spend a day. Have fun. Morning everyone. I hope you all enjoy your day. Welcome back, Zaxor!
Morning Pops --Morning Zax -Leon - Sarge and do gooders---have a good one --
I need to check and see how far it is to Sarge's cabin
Morning Pops and Zoners
Still living the dream
The Still Living is the important thing ----We would miss ya
Morning Pops. Morning Sarge, Yeags, Juke, Bob, Phil, Leon, Zax, Zrin and Kristie. Morning Zoners.
I hope everybody is in good spirits today.
Have a great day.
More likely this bunch is in the spirits ---Morning ABQ
Good morning, (barely) Cbz,Yeags, Juke, Bob, ABQ,Leon, Zax, Zrin and Kristie. Good morning to all Zoners.
Zax, you were this close to having your picture on a milk carton. Good to see you back. Juke is officially missing and has missed out on coffee with this bunch for some time. Maybe a promise of a cold one (PBR?) could entice him. BTW, while I was in Miami, I asked for a PBR and could not get one. Sarge, perhaps you could provide me with a map regarding availability of this beverage.
Everybody have a great day.
Think they only make it for Sarge --no one else will drink the stuff---Need Juke back to balance out Yeag
Afternoon Bob.
Good morning Cbz. Good morning everyone. Have a good day, folks.
Good Morning Pops---Leon and fellow conveyors of info
Morning Pops. Morning Fellas and Kristie. Morning Zoners.
Hope everybody has started the day off well. Thursday and getting ready for the Weekend. For some, today is their Friday and it's a long weekend.
Have a great day all.
Good morning, Cbz and good morning, all. I'm one of those who get Nov 11th off as it is Rememberance Day in Canada. I will haul on the kilt and drum and march in a ceremony and parade in honour of those who have died while in service or those who have passed sinced they served. It might be a little cool, but I will be wearing 7 1/2 yards of wool around my middle.
Here's hoping for a great day and a equally great weekend.

While dwindling gas and property revenues are forcing municipalities to consider raising taxes and utility rates to pay for city services, a recent survey shows that more than a third (36%) of participants don't believe they're getting their tax dollars' worth in services and facilities.
Of those services that received a poor/ fair rating by respondents, public transportation led the pack (47%). "Gas prices, the economy, concerns about the environment/air quality, and congestion are all contributing to increased consumer demand for alternative modes of transportation that work," says Rebecca Elmore-Yalch, senior V.P. at Opinion Research Corp., the global market research firm that conducted the survey. "At the same time, many transit systems are faced with significant budget shortfalls, forcing them to cut services."
On the bright side, 72% of those polled rated sanitation and garbage disposal services as good/excellent, and 68% gave parks and recreation the same rating.
The survey also found that nearly one out of four respondents (23%) would vote against their local leadership based on the quality or level of services provided.
The company polled 1,000 adults by telephone. For more information, visit www.orc-ouchpoint.com.

ONTARIO - After 36 years at Mojave Narrows Regional Park in Victoville, organizers of Huck Finn's Jubilee announced it is relocating the festival to Cucamonga-Guasti Regional Park.
The festival on June 14-16 will bring at least 20,000 people to the Ontario park and is expected to inject $9.4 million into the local economy, organizers said.
The bluegrass-themed festival is a celebration of the life and times of Mark Twain characters' Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn.
The move to Ontario was in part due to the death of founder Don Tucker in October.
"The emotional ties to Mojave Narrows were too great an obstacle for the family to overcome," Brian said. "We wanted to begin a new chapter rather than closing the book all together."
But Tucker said he talked about the event with his sister, Bree, and mother, Barbara, who was a co-founder. They knew it would be difficult to duplicate the event without the presence of the late founder.
"We wanted to keep the tradition alive but we couldn't to do it at his park," Tucker said.
Rather than cancel the event, they decided to bring it to Ontario and, because of the new territory, the family brought in the Ontario Convention Center and Visitors Bureau for assistance.
The Tucker family will put on the event while the Ontario Convention Center and Visitors Bureau will assist with some of the marketing to promote the event in the Ontario area. The bureau will also assist in hotel lodging for out-of-towners.
"With the new location, there's an opportunity to bring an additional new audience. My job is to help them build more attendance," said Michael Krouse, president and CEO of the Ontario Convention Center and Visitors Bureau.
In previous years, the event attracted about 15,000 people. Krouse said he hopes to see it grow to at least 18,000 in the first year.
Officials said they expect a $9.4 million economic impact as a result of people booking hotel rooms, eating at local restaurants and shopping in nearby stores, Krouse said.
Tucker said the San Bernardino County Regional Parks was also cooperative in assisting with the changes.
The 150-acre Cucamonga-Guasti park boasts plenty of open space for the planned activities as well as for the anticipated campers. It is also conveniently located near area hotels, Tucker said.
Even though the Jubilee will have a new home, Tucker said people will not notice much change to the activities. Each year, families have packed the camper with kids, banjos and fishin' poles and run away for a weekend of fun in the country.
"It's truly a family event. It's so diverse it will appeal to so many people," Tucker said.

Lil Wayne insists he is "more than good" following his stint in hospital after suffering seizures.
The 30-year-old rapper, real name Dwayne Michael Carter Jr, suffered from uncontrollable convulsions on March 12 and was taken to a Los Angeles hospital, where he stayed in the Intensive Care Unit.
Exaggerated reports surfaced claiming the star was on his deathbed, however in a new video with TMZ - who broke the story - Lil Wayne reveals he is back to full health.
"I just want to say thank you to y'all for all y'all prayers and y'all concerns and all that. I swear to God, I felt the love when I was laid up in that motherf***ing hospital bed. I want y'all to know that I'm good, n*****, more than good,"he said in the video.
"Also, my album is still coming out March 26. Also I'm still going on tour, America's Most Wanted tour with some of my closest friends."
I Am Not a Human Being II is the upcoming tenth studio album by the American rapper and serves as the sequel to his eighth studio album, I Am Not a Human Being.
TMZ also linked Wayne's seizure episode to an overdose of a concoction called Sizzurp, which includes prescription-strength cough syrup with codeine as its primary ingredient.
The rapper's record boss Mack Maine recently denied such claims.
"A lot of blogs and stuff put out some foolishness, but that wasn't true," he said.
"He has four kids. Imagine his daughter hearing that somewhere in school or something like that, so he wasn't too happy about that."

text: I have a 91 Chevy k1500 short box with a 305 currently. I will be putting in a 350 with vortec heads next year and will also be putting headers on it at the same time as the engine swap. My truck has stock exhaust on it now and it just sounds old and very quiet. I want dual exhaust and will probably go with a single in dual out for simplicity. I'm trying to decide between a magnaflow muffler (don't know how they sound) or a flowmaster delta 50 or a 50 SUV. I don't want the truck much louder than stock, I just want it to sound good. Also, I'm sure the headers will make it louder (anyone know if this is true?) so I don't want to get a very loud muffler. Is the Flowmaster SUV a good muffler to go with? Anyone using this right now? how does it sound?


text: I'vI been reading a fair amount and I'm almost certain I have the cause of my oil consumption identified. I believe like most people that it is my PVC system causing the issue. The line from the intake manifold to the driver side valve cover Is free of oil but the other side of the system the line going from the passenger valve cover to the intake tube between the maf and the throttlebody is dripping with engine oil. Am I on the right track here? If I am I understand that the permanent fix is to replace the drivers side valve cover. If I pull and clean up the drivers side valve cover, will that fix the issue temporarily? Thanks, Barry


text: The AFC scares no one. I mean who do they have ? The Patsies haven't won it since what ? 05 ? The last time the Steelers won it was against the 8-8 Cardinals ( And they needed a " Pick Six going Coast To Coast to win it. ) The Colts are back to being the Dolts. The Ravens offense, just can't get it done. The Chargers got old, and their not called the " Lords Of The Ringless " for nothing.The Jets crash and burn year after year. The NFC has the Giants, Packers, Saints, Niners, Lions, and even the Falcons who you cannot take lightly. NFC Dominates.

Mary, Mary, quite contrary, couldn't make her garden grow with water. So what did she use? If you answered "glossolalia," "veal," "da hammer," "urine," "Jesus," or "Really, T.D., we don't talk for six months and this is how you say hi?", you'd have done well as the first contestant at the Milky Way's live re-creation of The Match Game a week ago Wednesday.
For those whose recollection of classic '70s television is murky: the original Match Game asked contestants to supply answers to ridiculous, innuendo-provoking fill-in-the-blank questions and match their responses to those of six D-list celebrities. The Milky Way incarnation pulled together a choice selection of local gadabouts for its panel: Union Square Round Table regulars Chris Braiotta and Keira Horowitz, Anderson Comedy troupe members Katie McCarthy and Gretchen Gavett, Magic People keyboardist Al Deaderick, and (disclosure!) Phoenix music editor Michael Brodeur. Rocking a brown velvet jacket and a hypnotic paisley tie, Big Digits rapper T.D. Sidell took on the role of bemused, often flummoxed host. The Milky Way lacked the plastic-fantastic trappings of the original show, but with Moonbat Tom Scanlon and his "sweet licks on the geetar," we had an authentic wacky wah-wah Match Game soundtrack.
By night's end, we'd witnessed one possibly lewd reference to Febrezing, eight very awkward exchanges between Sidell and Horowitz (playing the role of a woman scorned), and a whole heap of technical difficulties. At one point, Sidell found himself without a question card; he came up with "[Blank]. That's what she said" on the spot. (Best answer: "Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds.")
Between rounds, we were treated to video shorts: a charming little number about rainbows, butterflies, and dismemberment from local illustrator Jef Czekaj, and Braiotta and Gavett's "Depressing Fuck-Tour U.S.A.," a sexy romp through such lust-inspiring locales as Centralia, Pennsylvania, and a Curves parking lot.
The winners won't have all that long to spend their $20 Milky Way gift cards, as the club is set to close in March '09. But perhaps that makes those cards all the more precious. And any venue where "Paul Newman" is an answer to "He strokes his violin with [blank]" should be savored while it's still around.

Members can choose to pay a lump sum annually or irregular small amounts to qualify for government tax credit.
I'm a stay-at-home mum and have kept up my investment in KiwiSaver after finishing up at work with the minimum investment needed to qualify for the government top-up.
I just put it in when my provider sends me a letter to remind me of the cut-off date (sometime in June?).
Is it possible to deposit smaller amounts during the year? And if so, what is the difference between doing it this way and the lump sum. It would be easier to budget for regular payments.
One of the key benefits of KiwiSaver is the member tax credit, which is an annual contribution the government will make towards your KiwiSaver account if you are aged 18 or over and have made contributions during the year.
The government pays 50c for every dollar you contribute up to a maximum payment of $521.43. To get the full member tax credit each year you need to have contributed at least $1042.86 in the 12 months before June 30 each year.
You can make this 'top-up' payment anytime throughout the year, either as a single lump sum, or via smaller irregular payments, or as a regular contribution set up with your KiwiSaver provider.
To receive the maximum member tax credit entitlement you would need to set up a regular payment of around $87 per month, or $261 every three months.
Something to think about is that regular payments can help lessen the risk of investing a large amount at the wrong time, ie just before a big drop in the market.
By making regular contributions you can benefit from a process called dollar-cost averaging. Put simply, this means that by spreading your contributions over a period of time, you can help smooth out some of the fluctuations in the entry price of your fund.
Finally, it is important to note that any member tax credit will be paid into your KiwiSaver account and it is not a tax refund that gets paid directly to you.
Sean Butler, Fidelity Life investment specialist.
I'm about to go on maternity leave for 12 months. What happens to my KiwiSaver contributions while I'm away from work?
If you're on maternity leave and your employer is not making any payments to you (that is you're no longer earning wages or salary), your KiwiSaver contributions will stop automatically.
They will not be deducted from your government-paid parental leave. Payments restart when you return to work.
You can contribute directly to your KiwiSaver scheme via either lump sum payments or regular payments from your bank account.
If you negotiated a paid maternity leave situation with your employer (in addition to any government support) your KiwiSaver contributions will generally continue (including the employer contribution) unless you take a contributions holiday. It would pay to confirm the details of your individual contract with your employer.
Donna Nicolof, BNZ head of wealth and private bank.
Recently I made inquiries about my KiwiSaver balance.
I haven't been paying too much attention to how it all works. All I know is a bit comes out of my weekly pay.
When I found out who my default provider was (ASB) I went online to just browse around and check it out.
Something looks out of place to me and I was wondering if you could shed some light.
When I go on to my ASB KiwiSaver web page and scroll down to "view transactions", then select summary for a time period of 24 months it says, opening balance as at 13/2/11 is $0.00.
Then in the column below it says "money in" $7644 with my, my employer's and the government's contributions. Then below that it says cash transferred from "member cash" $3325.
Then in the next column it has "money out" cash transferred to investment fund $3325, leaving me with a balance of $4473.
Was that money transferred mine in the first place or just a part of ASB's way of trading members funds or whatever, if you know what I mean.
It's all a bit confusing to this labourer from the Waikato.
No one at ASB or IRD made any sense to me so if you could put it in easy English for me it would be appreciated.
The best place to view a summary of your KiwiSaver account and contributions (by type) is the 'Investment Overview' page (log in to FastNet Classic and click the ASB KiwiSaver Scheme link on your Balances page).
Prior to August 30, 2012 your contributions went through a member cash account before being invested into your chosen investment fund(s).
Yes, the 'cash transferred from member cash account' is your member contributions, employer contributions and government contributions moving from your cash account into your investment fund(s).
We upgraded our system on August 30, 2012 removing each member cash account, so your contributions are now invested directly into your chosen investment fund(s).
We sincerely apologise that you did not get the information you were looking for from ASB and encourage you to contact us again on 0800 ASB RETIRE (0800 272 738) to discuss any questions you have about your KiwiSaver account and the information available online.

Clean, usable water is at threat from the increasing incidence of hazardous substances in water supplies, threatening general public wellness and the environment. Novel nano-structured membranes are therefore being created by EU-funded scientists to combat the bioaccumulation of heavy metals, the emergence of multi-drug resistant organisms and metal-related diseases. Chronic exposure to hefty metals and drugs from the mining, pharmaceutical and wellness treatment sectors can be toxic to living cells and induce disease processes. A new generation of low-fouling, nano-structured filtration membranes using smart materials may be just around the part. Experts working are developing technology to boost the percentage of potable water in developing and industrialised nations. The three-layer hybrid membrane will have an anti-fouling pre-filter made of polymeric nanofibres, a smart cleaning system employing piezoelectric crystals and a highly selective, nano-structured ceramic membrane. Together, these enhancements will enable the treatment of heavy metals, data recovery of valuable metals and catalytic degradation of toxic compounds. This should find application in the mining industry and pharmaceutical sector as well as in hospitals and geriatric treatment services. One benefit of the idea is that each component may be considered as a separate device. They can be effortlessly combined to supply tailor-made solutions for the certain needs demanded by different water remediation processes. The production procedure for the new filters will be scaled up to industrial level for treating in situ effluents. The advantages of the nanomaterial-based membranes will be carried with respect to water filtration efficiency and economic and environmental impacts. The project will offer a toolbox for fabricating prototype multifunctional membranes for industrial wastewater therapy; it'll concentrate on three industrial programs. These range from the treatment of heavy metals from acid mine drainage water and valuable metals from the chemical and mining industry. They will additionally be used in the catalytic degradation of toxic drugs and metabolites from the pharmaceutical sector and hospitals and nursing houses.

Giants DB Terrell Thomas (torn ACL) will begin running next week. "Everything has been progressing smoothly as I begin to add more weight and lunges to my routine," Thomas said via his personal blog. Thomas had his ACL in his right knee surgically-repaired for the third time in his career in mid-September. If he returns to the Giants in 2013, GM Jerry Reese suggests Thomas could move to safety to take some pressure off his knees.
Hope not...sounds like KP is gone if true

Film & Discussion: About Armenian Genocide "Son of the Olive Merchant"
After marrying Mathieu, Anna (of Polish origin) inherited a name which has historical meaning. An Armenian name with Turkish intonations which permitted Garabed, Mathew's grandfather, to escape the 1915 genocide. For their honeymoon they went to Turkey and traced the footsteps of Garabed to learn more about Mathieu's Armenian origins.
A road trip across the country mixing Animation, investigative film and historic documentary to report what the Turks think about the 1915 tragedy... A film about Armenian Genocide and Turkish denial
Filmmaker Mathieu Zeitindjioglou will be present at the screening to discuss and answer questions about the film.
About the Filmmaker:
Born in Versailles, France, Mathieu Zeitindjioglou has won recognition and several festival awards for his film shorts including The Man Who Was Not Hungry, Tell Me About Love, The Philanthropist and the Farm.
Mathieu's Son of the Olive Merchant is the culmination of his artistic approach and a way to pay tribute to his Armenian grandfather and his roots.

Depending on what the Giants decide to do with Osi, they could possibly use a true speed rusher opposite of JPP. IMO not only the best speed rusher but pass rusher period in the 2012 draft is Bruce Irvin. The guy has 22.5 sacks over the past two seasons including 14 as a junior. He already possess a nice array of moves relying mainly on his speed/quicknees to press the edge which in turn sets up his inside move. Also despite his size, can bull rush the tackle with some success as well.
Athletically he compares favorably to Von Miller:
Height weight arms hands 40 Bench 3cone 20yard shuttle
Miller- 6'3" 246 33 1/2 9 1/4 4.53 21 6.70 4.06
Irvin 6'3" 245 33 3/8 9 5/8 4.50 23 6.70 4.03
Due to his recent arrest, lack of experience in traditional defense, and lack of effectiveness playing the run its entirely possible that he'd be available at 64.If that were to happen I think he would be a must make selection, and one that we as Giant fans would be very excited to have.

The key to beating the Packers is actually very simple:
Take what we did vs the Bengals last week and do the exact opposite.
Last edited by egyptian420; 11-19-2012 at 12:11 PM.
They can't win. Packers are a better team. It will be a blow out. Giants will lose the rest of the year. Giants will fail to make it to the playoffs. Because Eli is falling apart, Cruz is scared to get hit, Nicks is hurting, run game sucks and the defense is the worst. Yes the worst. And it's not going to turn around. Don't even both watching the games it will only lead to a headache.
I blame the fans in new york for the struggles the giants have at home. the fans never add that 12th man effect, because you new yorkers have seen it all and only get loud when arguing over meatballs and yankees.
The key to winning the game is to score more points than our opponent!
"There is winning and there is Misery"

I insist any new beekeeper start with 3 hives (to correspond the division in thirds). You need an outyard as well (core to isolating nucs from drift and robbing). Queening packages is not a trivial task for new keeps (viz. the nearly constant round of questions on this practice on these forums in May-July), and splitting hives is an order of magnitude more difficult than installing packages.
The "backyard, natural beekeeping" texts ignore the minimum size, rotating purpose constraint on colonies, minimum skill set for requeening, and pre-requisite out-yard. The implication is always that a "garden ornament" is as viable as a working apiary; it is not. The need to dedicate colonies to sustaining the yard, the nursery period of young hives, and purchased queens mean the minimum investment in viable hobby apiary is much greater >$500 and there is a continuing need for new cash input. The unit production is less than 50% of the ideal "established" colony. (one full crop and one half crop among a set of three hives).
The cost of purchased nucs (or packages) is quickly prohibitive except for most spend-thrift hobbyist, so the default assumption is the group of hives will run on the requeened split model.

I might be getting a helmet cheap from a buddy that needs lots of work. It looks like there are lots of small air bubbles in it and other imperfections. If I get it I would make sure all the lines are smooth but, what about items like the dome? It almost looks like there is physical weathering.
So, do I smooth it out or let it go so that it adds to the character of the helmet?

text: I have a 1996 chevy tahoe. Recently my truck was hard to start..it eventually starts but takes a minute then fires up. When it does start, it revs up really high to about 1500 rpm's. When i put it in gear it wants to drive itself and the brakes dont feel like they wont too well. This goes on for a few minutes then stops. I noticed my fuel pressure gauge also moves up and down. Does anyone know what this may be? I am going to take it into the shop but I wanted to check with you all to see if you have had this problem or know what it may be so i can get started on it. Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated! Thank in advance!
