Hot goalie
Peter Budaj notched his 11th win his last 12 regular-season starts and the Canadiens edged Washington 3-2.
Three lines contributed to the win as Travis Moen, David Desharnais and Daniel Brière, on a power-play, staked the Canadiens to a 3-0 lead.
With 22 seconds left in the first period, Alexander Ovechkin's 18th goal – from a bad angle, between Budaj's legs – gave the home team hope.
But a scoreless second period saw the Canadiens outshoot their hosts 13-3.
And the two-goal lead held up until 12:27 into the third, when another Ovechkin goal set up a wild ending.
Tense ending
John Carlson's shot ticked in off Alex Ovechkin to set up 7 1/2 minutes of lead protection.
The Canadiens managed to hang on but may have lost rookie Michaël Bournival, who blocked a shot with his foot.
Scoreless second
The Canadiens played an excellent period and outshot the home team 14-3.
Canadiens wisely stayed out of the penalty box.
Michel Therrien shuffled Travis Moen onto the TomasPlekanec line, with Daniel Brière dropping down with Ryan White and Michaël Bournival.
The suddenly explosive Canadiens
Travis Moen, of all people, opened the scoring – his first in 51 games.
That set the stage for David Desharnais's first in 26 – a controversial goal that video review showed coming off DD's high stick. And then, on a power-play, Daniel Brière's third in five games made it 3-0.
Romp, right?
Wrong. With half a minute left in the period, Alex Ovechkin's 19th, from a bad angle through Peter Budaj's legs, reduced the lead to two.
Shots were 13-13.
P.K. Subban fought Troy Brouwer, who had taken a cheap shot at Andrei Markov.
Difficult weekend begins
Your Montreal Canadiens play a back-to-back set against two teams that are ahead of them in the Eastern Conference standings.
First up are the Washington Capitals, who are coming off an embarrassing 4-0 home-ice loss to Pittsburgh in which Marc-André Fleury made a mere 18 saves.
The Penguins play the Islanders Friday night and will be at the Bell Centre Saturday.
It's a safe bet Peter Budaj will face more than 18 Washington shots at the Verizon Center.
The Canadiens were 4-1 winners on their only visit to D.C., the third game of last season. Washington won both of its games in Montreal – including a 5-1 late-season romp in which Alex Ovechkin scored twice, added an assist and had six SoG.
Michel Therrien will go with the same skaters who easily beat Minnesota, except Douglas Murray draws in for Francis Bouillon.
Puck drops 7:10ish.

text: OK so, after rolling my windows down on the lovely 92 degree weather we had here in ohio on friday i found out i could no longer roll any of my windows up, my main switch didnt work and neither did any of the seperate switches for thier respective doors. figured it was a fuse, replaced it and still nothing. ok so now the nitty gritty lets take apart method comes in. took the pannel off the door for some testing which is were issue one was found,(broken pin on the hookup for the switch)(easy fix, going to junkyard for a new one) but upon further testing with a meter i have a constant 12v running to the power windows fuse, which causes this fuse to get reallllly hot. so my stepdad and i attempted to make a jumper to roll the windows up untill i could make it to the yard when they were open. yeah bad idea, somewhere i wire caught on fire and i am still yet unable to locate this wire. so the jumpers didnt work, im looking for any insight at all on this problem or if anyone here knows how to roll up power windows without power, not that i dislike the clear plastic and duct tape look i have going not its just something id rather fix. thanks for any and all help. im also having a very hard time finding any kind of wiring diagram. thank you guys sooo much

Just started here in South Florida, one new hive started from a swarm.
Welcome. I started this year too. In west delray beach at antiquers are you a pilot. Are you building on a second hive body?
yes to both, I just ordered the woodenware for a second hive. Trying to get a Nuc lined up now for that one.
I also fly a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piaggio_P.180_Avanti
Welcome FM! Have you met your bee inspector yet?
Yes I did
I got some lemongrass oil to experiment with too. let me know how it goes. I am planning to use it in a few nuc's in case my own hives get to capacity and want to swarm -- I would like to thing they would stay on with me.
OK, the hive is built, the lemongrass oil is on a napkin inside a slightly opened ziploc, I put some honey with a bunch of grass so the don't get stuck, and I put the legs (concrete blocks) inside a plastic bucket filled with water to avoid ants. Now I will let you all know if I get some bees.
Since this seems to be a So FL thing, I may as well chime in, too. I am new to this forum (been on a couple others for a little longer). Davie, FL here. Bees seem to be doing well down here! Looking forward to February when things will really be flowing! I'll be watching your handles for updates. Happy Bees everyone!

On June 23, 2011 the Middle States Commission on Higher Education reaffirmed accreditation and commended Barnard for progress to date and for the quality of the self-study process.
The Statement of Accreditation Status provides important basic information about the institution and its affiliation with the Commission.
The focus of the most recent Self-Study process at Barnard was two-fold: to reflect upon and thoroughly evaluate the College through both a broad lens and a detail-oriented approach; and to examine the ways in which we engage with and meet the fourteen Standards of Excellence defined by the Middle States Commission of Higher Education (MSCHE).
Given MSCHE's focus on assessing learning outcomes and institutional effectiveness, the 2010 Self-Study highlights the ways in which assessment of the institution and of our students' learning outcomes have become embedded into life at the College, as well as the ways we will continue to assess all aspects of life at Barnard in the years to come. The Self-Study is organized according to the standards, with recommendations listed at the end of each chapter and summarized at the end of the document.
The team visit took place from February 20-23, 2011. The Visiting Team produced a report with suggestions and recommendations going forward that can be viewed below.

Pine River group adopts mission statement, begins planning next steps
The Pine River group formerly calling itself Downtown & Main Street on Jan. 15 discussed an official name, defined its mission statement and began planning the next steps in its effort to increase the contribution of Paul Bunyan Trail traffic to the local community and businesses.
The meeting, led by Quinn Swanson of Happy Dancing Turtle and Jay Cline of First National Bank of Walker in Jenkins, was held at the Depot building. The group broke up to discuss the mission statement, settling on "To provide a thriving sustainable community with a compelling identity."
Regarding possible names for the project, Swanson said Downtown & Main Street was an acceptable name if the group wanted it, but chamber director John Wetrosky informed them of a concern raised by other members of the community.
"I've had some comments from people along 371 that they feel like they are being ignored. So I think we somehow have to create some atmosphere, because we're going to need them, like we always do," Wetrosky said.
The group discussed the importance of including all the local businesses and community. The discussion ended with the name "Pine River Revitalization." Members of the group suggested that the name should be considered further and discussed again at a later meeting.
The final portion of the meeting was dedicated to discussing current resources and deciding on the next step.
In October and December of last year the group consulted Envision Minnesota to create possible maps of a redesigned downtown. The favorite of these maps depicted Barclay Avenue as two lanes, flanking a center turning lane. The new model also has bicycle lanes on both sides of the street.
In theory these could direct traffic from the Paul Bunyan Trail across 371 and into the businesses on the other side.
Mike Hansen suggested that it might be better to begin the project with beautification, rather than the new street design with bike lanes.
"Your theme is one thing you're going to want to establish earlier. It would seem to me that beautifying downtown would draw people down there, versus putting the bike path first. If you have a nice bike path, where does it go to?" he asked. "Let's beautify it (the city) and then put the bike path in."
Other members agreed with this sentiment.
"The bike lanes, I'm not against that, but I still think we need an identifier there," Wetrosky said.
In terms of how to direct attention from the Paul Bunyan Trail and into town, money was discussed as a mitigating factor. Swanson urged the group to start by thinking big, because "if you aim little you get little." The group did, however, propose options, which it deemed realistic.
"What we're really trying to do is enhance the assets we already have," Rod Osterloh said. "We're not trying to necessarily create a new wheel, but to take what's there and figure out how to use it in a better way."
On that note, the group attempted to come up with ideas that used the city's current assets. Wetrosky suggested that finding some way to advertise the river from a distance could work to their advantage.
"I always tell people the best part of Pine River is that river. I mean, it's beautiful, but nobody ever sees it unless you direct them there," he said.
In the past the group has considered installing a water fountain in the river that could be powered by the dam. Among other topics, the group discussed planting colorful flowers, displaying a large sign that can be seen from the trail, installing an informative kiosk near the information center, putting colorful bins outside of businesses, lining Barclay Avenue with flags on tall poles and playing music on the street.
Forbes Park was also discussed as an attractive asset of the area. Hansen said the park has seen an increase in use recently, which has prompted the city to make improvements and begin charging a small fee for overnight visitors to discourage squatting behavior.
Hansen said the park was one of only two overnight campgrounds between Brainerd and Bemidji located a convenient distance from the trail. The other is the Corps of Engineers Campground near Cass Lake.
Hansen suggested that the campground could receive more traffic from those riding the trail if it was better advertised and better known.
The group discussed this and many other ideas, though no actions were finalized. The next meeting will discuss themes, branding and identification and will be at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 19, in the Depot building.

Caught a small(less than baseball size) swarm yesterday and have put them in a mini mating nuc to see if they can make a go of it. The problem is we are currently in a dearth and I'll need to reduce the entrance alot so they don't get robbed but by reducing the entrance the queen will not be able to get out.
So how can I tell if she's mated?

Covered California site down for repairs
SACRAMENTO, Calif. - (AP) - A key part of California's online marketplace to shop for health insurance has been offline since it began malfunctioning Wednesday.
The exchange, known as Covered California, issued a news release Thursday saying the enrollment function on its website, www.coveredca.com , was taken offline Wednesday afternoon to address what it described as a software malfunction.
It said repair work was going on around the clock and that engineers hoped to restore functionality by Friday morning.
Earlier this week, Covered California reported that 829,000 people had signed up for individual policies through the first two weeks of February and that another 877,000 applicants were determined to be likely eligible for coverage through Medicaid.

I'm trying to think of a blank spot in our craft room where such a set up can be put. What is the board underneath? What was used for hinges? This is one of the best ideas I've seen here on this board! Do you rent out your DH? Oh, oh, my totally supportive DH better not see that question!

Right, so last week the US elections, this week the Chinese ones. Well, sort of elections. I think there might be some voting by the elite delegates at the seven-day party Congress that finishes tomorrow.
Either way, it's a bit like the US version in one respect. Lots of pomp and ceremony and it ends in a predictable result.
All the smart money was already pointing to the anointment of F&P Appliances visiting Vice-President Xi Jinping as new General Secretary of the Communist Party. One suspects there was even less margin for error than in the exhaustive US polls.
Xi visited New Zealand in 2010 and was offered a tour of F&P Appliances' East Tamaki Plant. He noted the partnership between F&P and Haier was "of a strategic nature" and the two companies would "share the market and technology".
The Business Herald reported that, passing through a company staff room, Xi commented that it was "a very good environment".
Whether that was the tick of approval Haier (which is still partially state- controlled) needed we'll never know.
Perhaps if someone had failed to clean up the cheese toasty maker and forgotten to put their coffee mug in the dishwasher F&P would still be locally owned.
But the man about to become the most powerful in China liked the lunch rooms and Haier has gone on to buy the whole company.
Seriously, though, rather unlike Barack Obama, the new leader of the Communist Party will have real power over the domestic economy - and therefore more direct influence on our fortunes.
Outgoing leader Hu JinTao made it pretty clear in his 100-minute departure speech that China's ruling party is not about to relinquish any central control of the economy.
Why would they want to do that? Just look at the state of the US. Start getting soft on central control and next minute you'll have Qinghai province legalising pot and you'll be begging to the Central committee for approval to deal with the national debt to avoid bankruptcy.
Actually, the Chinese are happy to avoid that debt thing altogether.
No, the new leader and his elite Politburo Standing Committee will retain the kind of real power that Barack Obama can only dream about.
While the US President is battling to keep the country solvent the new standing committee of the Communist Party will be deciding exactly what the Chinese economic growth rate should be and then implementing policy to make that happen.
Just about the only economic variable over which the Chinese administration has no control is global demand for Chinese goods.
It has enormous control over capital within the country. Forget about printing money, they've already got too much of the stuff.
The country has cash reserves of something like US$3 trillion ($3.6 trillion). That'll buy a lot of cycle ways if they need to create some jobs.
The potential they have to stimulate domestic growth is almost unimaginable and it has not yet been seriously employed as the Chinese Government still has a strong focus on keeping growth in check. If they don't like the cut of that domestic growth's jib, they do something about it.
Last year, when there were concerns about an overheated property market, the state slapped a two-property limit on all mortgage lending. That meant they briefly stopped property development in its tracks for all but those who could afford to build without borrowing. That sort of thing is probably pretty ugly for those in the middle of doing business but you don't hear a lot of complaining.
Kiwi-style hand wringing over the value of the currency and the scope of Government spending is minimised by ensuring you have like-minded thinkers in key positions.
The Organisation Department of the Communist Party of China Central Committee - which appoints personnel - has been described by Richard McGregor in the Financial Times as having the equivalent US power of overseeing "the appointments of US state governors and their deputies; the mayors of big cities; heads of federal regulatory agencies; the chief executives of General Electric, ExxonMobil, Walmart and 50-odd of the remaining largest companies; justices on the Supreme Court; the editors of the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post, the bosses of the television networks and cable stations, the presidents of Yale and Harvard and other big universities and the heads of think-tanks such as the Brookings Institution and the Heritage Foundation."
That is going to speed things up.
There is always a risk that large global forces can catch a small group of key decision-makers off guard, that China's establishment might get it wrong and the economy could get away on them or slump harder than has been preordained. There is also, as Hu JinTao recognised in his speech, the risk that corruption can undermine the system.
But the combination of great wealth and great control makes China unique in the world.
We can bemoan the lack of free speech and democratic process. We should always do our best to highlight the virtues of the individual freedom our system offers. But whatever we think or do, we shouldn't kid ourselves about having serious influence over political reality in the country we are increasingly relying on for our economic growth.
Given the mess the US banking system has just made for the world, and the lack of democratic process around Western capital markets generally, it isn't necessarily such a clear-cut, black and white moral debate.
Both systems have issues. What is important is for New Zealanders to understand both systems because we are going to keep doing business with both of them. We are more dependent than ever on strong Chinese GDP growth. It underpins the dairy price and the price of hard commodities like coal.
While the US and its fiscal cliff are going to rattle markets and hog headlines for the next few weeks, those with an eye on forecasting the economic weather would do as well to watch closely for the declarations and pronouncements of the new Chinese establishment.
They can be subtle and mysterious but their implications can reach directly to the working lives of New Zealanders every bit as much as the rises and falls of Wall Street.

Clive Wynne
My title is borrowed from a book by Eugène Marais (1871–1936), published posthumously in 1969. Marais was one of the first to make a close study of the behavior of nonhuman primates in the wild. His analyses were far ahead of their time, because he attempted to understand the actions of these creatures in terms of the evolutionary continuity with Homo sapiens that Charles Darwin had earlier proposed. Although genetic analyses were still a long way off, it was obvious to Darwin and his converts in the 19th century that the great apes—chimpanzees, gorillas, orangutans and bonobos, or pygmy chimps —must be our distant cousins. "He who understands baboon," Darwin noted, "would do more toward metaphysics than Locke."
Although today we recognize baboons as monkeys, not apes, and therefore less closely related to us, Darwin's point still stands. And Marais was on the right track when he observed free-living and captive baboons in his native South Africa and puzzled over the similarities—and differences—he could see between their behavior and that of human children and adults.
Most of the questions with which Marais grappled remain unanswered. But in recent years attempts to understand primate minds have spawned a controversial new ethic. It is based on the notion that the differences in psychology between people and other great apes are too small to justify different treatment. That is, nonhuman apes should get the same ethical consideration that their human brethren receive. This view is most manifest in the Great Ape Project, which describes itself as working to raise the legal and moral status of these animals. The ultimate aim of this group is to have the United Nations adopt a declaration on the rights of nonhuman apes, one that would make all medical research on them impossible.
Supporters of the Great Ape Project are impressed by the genetic similarity between people and nonhuman apes and by the relatively short period of time since we and our closest relatives (chimpanzees) diverged from a common ancestor. Most advocates of this project point to what they consider the key psychological similarity between nonhuman apes and ourselves: Nonhuman apes, they argue, are self-aware. As a consequence of this self-awareness, gorillas, chimpanzees, bonobos and orangutans must suffer in captivity in ways not so different from what we would experience under similar circumstances.
This is not an abstract scholarly debate. There are about 1,600 chimpanzees held for biomedical research in the U.S., and these animals are essential to the study of several maladies, ones for which few if any other approaches are available. Probably the single most important example is liver disease. It was research on chimpanzees that provided the vaccine against hepatitis B. Carriers of hepatitis B are about 200 times more likely to develop liver cancer than the general population, so the hepatitis B vaccine can be considered the first cancer vaccine. More than a million people in the United States have been infected with hepatitis B, and nearly half the global population is at high risk of contracting this virus. Chimpanzees have also been crucial for the study of hepatitis C, a chronic disease for some four million Americans.
And hepatitis just heads the list. AIDS is another prominent example, because chimpanzees are the only nonhuman species that can be infected with HIV-1, the common form of the virus found throughout the world. The reason became clearer last year, when investigators found proof that HIV-1 spread to humans from chimps early in the 20th century. Now more than 36 million people around the world are infected with this virus, and some 22 million have already died from AIDS. Chimpanzees continue to be immensely valuable in the search for a vaccine. Chimps are also helping scientists to battle other dire health problems, including spongiform encephalopathy ("mad-cow disease"), malaria, cystic fibrosis and emphysema.
So the stakes are very high indeed. On the one hand, precisely because they are closely related to us, nonhuman great apes are the only suitable species for research on several diseases that cause immense human suffering. On the other hand, these creatures may be so similar to ourselves that making them the subjects of biomedical experimentation may be difficult to justify ethically. This could be a Faustian dilemma—are we selling chimp souls to better our human lives?
I don't pretend to have the answer to such a weighty moral question. But as a psychologist I do feel qualified to examine one of the reasons being cited for providing these creatures with rights: the idea that nonhuman great apes are self-aware. In my view, the evidence for this assertion is considerably exaggerated. Several lines of reasoning have been put forward to buttress this claim. Let me examine each of these arguments in turn.
First, it is said, the minds of nonhuman great apes are much like ours because some of these animals have been taught to use language—sign language. Research on the abilities of chimpanzees and bonobos to communicate using signs has been going on for more than 30 years. The early excitement that accompanied reports of signing chimpanzees has died down, perhaps because the details are not that compelling. In all these studies, the animal's vocabulary developed painfully slowly, and it never exceeded a couple of hundred signs (about two weeks' work for a healthy two-year-old child). Often the chimp involved could only repeat gestures, and in any case, chimpanzee "sentences" rarely extend beyond one or two signs—making any discussion of grammar or syntax seem rather forced.
The occasional anecdote of a chimpanzee forming a novel combination of signs to represent a word he had not been taught (such as signing water-bird for swan) prompted some to believe that these animals indeed have an innate capacity for language. But in reality such cases are extremely rare and quite hard to interpret. How does one know, for example, that this chimp did not intend two distinct utterances, water and bird, to indicate the two things then in view? In my estimation, such curiosities contribute little to the debate.
Somewhat more relevant are recent reports of a bonobo named Kanzi, whose linguistic abilities (as expressed by pressing buttons on a special keyboard) are alleged to far exceed those seen during the earlier sign-language studies with chimpanzees. A critical test for Kanzi's comprehension of sentence structure involved asking him to respond to an instruction such as "would you please carry the straw?" Sure enough, Kanzi picks up the straw. But there's a weakness here. Although it could be that grammar conveyed the correct meaning of the test sentence, it could equally be just the circumstances that made the requested action obvious (given that Kanzi knows what the words carry and straw refer to). After all, a chimp may carry a straw; a straw cannot carry a chimp. Investigators have also claimed to discern grammatical structure in Kanzi's own keyboard strokes. But because the average length of his utterances is around 1.5 pushes, I believe that a meaningful analysis of grammar or syntax is impossible.
The second tier of evidence for self-awareness in nonhuman apes comes from so-called mirror tests. These experiments can be conducted in several different ways. For example, while the subject is anesthetized or sleeping, the experimenter places a mark on the forehead or ear with an odorless, tasteless dye. Upon waking, the animal is shown a mirror. Will the creature recognize that the splash of dye is on his own face? The answer is taken to be yes if the animal touches the marked area of skin more often with a mirror in front of him than without.
Although there were methodological problems with some earlier studies, it is now broadly accepted that chimpanzees, bonobos and orangutans can recognize themselves in mirrors. Claims that dolphins and gorillas can pass this test are disputed. And all other species examined (including fish, dogs, cats, elephants and parrots) react to themselves in a mirror either not at all or as if the reflection is another animal.
The problem with the mirror test of self-recognition lies not in the results—clearly some nonhuman apes can recognize themselves in mirrors—but in the interpretation. Why should such self-recognition be equated with self-awareness? Some people cannot recognize themselves in mirrors (blind people are the most obvious group), but nobody suggests they lack any aspect of self-awareness. Conversely, in autistics self-awareness is clearly impaired. And yet autistic children develop the ability to recognize themselves in mirrors at the same rate as normal children. So these tests of self-recognition in mirrors are interesting and doubtless say something about how animals view their bodies, but they tell us nothing about the deeper question of self-awareness.
The final set of evidence for self-awareness in nonhuman apes comes from something called "cognitive perspective taking." Daniel Povinelli and his colleagues at the University of Southwestern Louisiana developed the best-known experiment of this sort. They based it on certain tests that are used to judge mental development in autistic children. In Povinelli's "guesser-knower" experiment, a chimpanzee watches a trainer put food into one of four cups. The chimpanzee knows that the cups are there (he was shown them before the experiment started) but cannot see which of them receives the food. Another trainer who has viewed the manipulations (the knower) then points to the baited cup. A third trainer who has not seen the food go in (the guesser) points to a different cup. A chimp—or child—who has an awareness that others have minds, can readily appreciate that one trainer knows where the food is hidden, and the other one doesn't.
Chimpanzees in these experiments were ultimately successful in picking the cup containing the food (selecting the cup pointed to by the knower), but they required many hundreds of training experiences before they could make the right choice reasonably consistently. This pattern suggests only that the apes involved gradually learned to associate one stimulus (the knower) with the reward, not that the animal is treating the trainers as people with minds.
In more recent experiments, Povinelli and his coworkers offered a chimpanzee a choice between begging from a person who could see various pieces of food and begging from a person who could not (because she was blindfolded, for example). To the experimenters' surprise, chimps were initially just as likely to approach the trainer who could not possibly see the food. With enough experience, the chimps gradually learned to ask only the person with unrestricted vision for a tasty morsel. But they showed no spontaneous understanding that being unable to see disqualified a person from providing snacks. So here again, I find little to indicate that apes have any awareness of the minds of others, much less that they have an awareness of their own thoughts.
In truth, scientists do not yet know much about the soul of the ape. But we've learned a few things since Marais made his pioneering observations.
It is clear that these animals do not show self-awareness in anything like the ways a human does, even when given the tools to do so. But if their minds are not like ours, what are they like? I don't know. I don't even know how we would draw ethical conclusions from that knowledge if we had it. The only thing I'm sure of is that we should view apes as worthy of wonder for being what they are—not merely as reflections of ourselves.

AT&T, UTSA Athletics present 'Nevil Shed Night'
By Kyle Stephens
Interim Sports Information Director, UTSA Athletics
(Feb. 21, 2006)--On Thursday, Feb. 23, AT&T and the UTSA Athletic Department will sponsor "Nevil Shed Night" and a free showing of the Walt Disney movie "Glory Road" at the Convocation Center, UTSA 1604 Campus.
UTSA will host Stephen F. Austin at 7 p.m. in a Southland Conference men's basketball game. At halftime, Nevil Shed, UTSA coordinator of student programs at the university center, will be honored for his support of UTSA students and the role that he played in the integration of NCAA athletics. Immediately following the game, Walt Disney Productions will present a free showing of its hit movie "Glory Road."

Shed played a significant role on the 1966 Texas Western men's basketball team that won the NCAA Championship. Texas Western Coach Don Haskins made the decision to start an all-black team against an all-white team in the NCAA championship game -- a first in NCAA Finals history.
Few in the capacity crowd believed that this was happening against the highly favored Kentucky Wildcats. Shed sank the free throw that put the Miners ahead to stay. The game has been recognized as one of the NCAA's "25 Defining Moments."
"Glory Road" tells the story of victory in spite of racial obstacles. Shed went on to play in the NBA and served as an assistant coach at Texas Western -- now the University of Texas at El Paso. After leaving UTEP, Shed came to the University of Texas at San Antonio where he has been shaping young lives for more than 25 years as basketball coach, instructor and staff member.
"The focus was more on being an underdog, not on race. The impact came when you saw that some of the schools that were all-white began to recruit black athletes," Shed said. "And what was so good about it, is that there were so many qualified black athletes who should have been at these schools. If we played a role in opening the doors to allow African-Americans to attend any school of their choice, that is a great impact."
To reserve tickets for the UTSA-SFA men's basketball game and gain admission to the free showing of "Glory Road," call the UTSA ticket office at (210) 458-8872.

COMMON BRAND NAME(S): Generess Fe, Loestrin 24 Fe, Minastrin 24 Fe
WARNING: Do not use this medication if you smoke cigarettes/use tobacco and are over 35 years old. Smoking raises your risk of stroke, heart attack, blood clots, and high blood pressure from hormonal birth control (such as the pill, patch, ring). The risk of these serious problems increases with age and with the number of cigarettes you smoke. Do not smoke or use tobacco.
Accidental overdose of iron-containing products is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children younger than 6 years. Keep this product out of reach of children. If overdose does occur, get medical help right away or call a poison control center.
USES: This combination hormone medication is used to prevent pregnancy. It contains 2 hormones: norethindrone (a progestin) and ethinyl estradiol (an estrogen). It works mainly by preventing the release of an egg (ovulation) during your menstrual cycle. It also makes vaginal fluid thicker to help prevent sperm from reaching an egg (fertilization) and changes the lining of the uterus (womb) to prevent attachment of a fertilized egg. If a fertilized egg does not attach to the uterus, it passes out of the body. There is a small amount of iron (ferrous fumarate) in each of the 4 inactive tablets taken during the fourth week. The inactive pills do not contain any hormones. These tablets are meant to keep you in the habit of taking 1 tablet each day and do not have enough iron to treat iron deficiency.
Besides preventing pregnancy, birth control pills may make your periods more regular, decrease blood loss and painful periods, decrease your risk of ovarian cysts, and also treat acne.
Using this medication does not protect you or your partner against sexually transmitted diseases (such as HIV, gonorrhea, chlamydia).
HOW TO USE: Read the Patient Information Leaflet provided by your pharmacist before you start using this product and each time you get a refill. The leaflet contains very important information on when to take your pills and what to do if you miss a dose. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
Take this medication by mouth with or without food as directed by your doctor, usually once daily. Pick a time of day that is easy for you to remember, and take your pill at the same time each day.
If you are taking the chewable tablet, chew and swallow one pill every day. Some brands may also be swallowed whole. Some brands should be taken with water while others should be taken without water. Carefully follow the manufacturer's directions for your brand.
It is very important to continue taking this medication exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Follow the package instructions to find the first tablet, start with the first tablet in the pack, and take them in the correct order. Do not skip any doses. Pregnancy is more likely if you miss pills, start a new pack late, or take your pill at a different time of the day than usual.
Taking this medication after your evening meal or at bedtime may help if you have any stomach upset or nausea with the medication. You may choose to take this medication at another time of day that is easier for you to remember. No matter what dosing schedule you use, it is very important that you take this medication at the same time each day, 24 hours apart. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions.
If you have vomiting or diarrhea within 4 hours after taking your tablet, read the Patient Information Leaflet section titled "What to Do if You Miss Tablets." Follow the instructions as if you had missed your dose because vomiting/diarrhea can stop the tablet from working.
Your pill pack contains 24 pills with active medication. It also contains 4 reminder pills with iron. Take one active pill (with hormones) once daily for 24 days in a row. Take one inactive pill (with iron) once daily for 4 days in a row after you have taken the last active pill unless otherwise directed by your doctor. You should have your period during the fourth week of the pack, within 3 days after the last active pill. After you have taken the last iron tablet in the pack, start a new pack the next day even if your period is continuing or if you do not have your period. If you do not get your period, consult your doctor.
If you are taking certain medications (such as levodopa, levothyroxine, penicillamine, tetracyclines, quinolones such as ciprofloxacin) that can interact with iron, ask your doctor whether you should throw away the reminder pills (iron tablets) each day rather than taking them. Iron can decrease the effect of these medications.
If this is the first time you are using this medication and you are not switching from another form of hormonal birth control (such as patch, other birth control pills), take the first tablet in the pack on the first Sunday following the beginning of your menstrual period or on the first day of your period. If your period begins on a Sunday, begin taking this medication on that day. For the first cycle of use only, use an additional form of non-hormonal birth control (such as condoms, spermicide) for the first 7 days to prevent pregnancy until the medication has enough time to work. If you start on the first day of your period, you do not need to use back-up birth control the first week.
Ask your doctor or pharmacist about how to switch from other forms of hormonal birth control (such as patch, other birth control pills) to this product. If any information is unclear, consult the Patient Information Leaflet or your doctor or pharmacist.

High school stabbing suspect to appear in court
Police say attack at J.H. Rose High School could be gang-related
GREENVILLE, PITT COUNTY - A J.H. Rose High School student, accused of stabbing another student at the school, is scheduled to appear in court Monday morning.
Johnavan Quaddique Spell, 17, was charged with attempted first-degree murder for the alleged attack on Feb. 11. He was also charged with one count each of assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury, carrying a concealed weapon, and possession of a weapon on education property.
According to arrest warrants, Spell stabbed 15-year-old Daekwon Daniels in the neck, as the victim was leaving the cafeteria of J.H. Rose High School, located on W. Arlington Blvd. Police said the attack happened at about 8:20 a.m. on Feb. 11.
Investigators described the weapon as a butcher knife with a blade about 12 inches long. According to school officials, Spell brought the weapon from home.
Police said the victim was taken to Vidant Medical Center, where he was treated for non-life threatening injuries.
At a previous court appearance, Spell told the judge, "It wasn't my intent to kill him."
Investigators said they believed the attack stemmed from an altercation that began over the weekend. Sgt. Joe Friday, of the Greenville Police Department, said he was told the incident was gang-related.
According to the principal, the stabbing was an isolated incident. Classes went on at J.H. Rose as planned.

text: My brother in law just recently bought an 04 trailblazer with about 172k on it. It has the 4.2 v6 but no sure bout the trans. He was driving down the road when his tach revved up and he noticed he had no gears. I looked at it for him. Noticed it had way too much fluid, maybe it smelled a touch toasted. But not burnt by any means. His torque converter is spinning at least from the outside. No matter what gear you put it in the engine does not load up or otherwise give any indication that it is trying to go in gear. A quick scan showed no codes. I did verify that the TCC slip is identical to the engine rpm. Maybe broken input shaft, sprag, torque converter? Any ideas?

On the night train I reflected a bit about my trip, and about my reasons for travelling in general. I think there's been a gradual shift over the last 4 years, since the first time I left the states. At first I travelled to see the general sightseeing stuff - the Eiffel Tower and the Mona Lisa, the Guadi buildings in Barcelona and La Guernica in Madrid. But I got so much more out of this past trip, talking to people and learning about the histroy. It's not something i could get from a book, and this kind of motivation will most likely inform the trips i take in the future.

Calories Analysis
This food contains 3,550 kcal per kilogram or 405 kcal per cup ME (metabolizable energy) on an as fed basis (calculated).
Transitioning to Wellness: It is important to slowly transition your dog from his/her current diet as it takes a few days for the body to adapt to the new nutrient levels. To transition, gradually mix in the new food over a 5-7 day period, increasing the amount of Wellness each day, so that you are feeding 100% Wellness by day 7.
Determining Feeding Portions: Looking at the chart below, divide the total cups per day by the total number of times you feed your dog per day to determine the portion size for each meal. Keep a clean bowl of fresh water available at all times. Wellness believes in feeding dry and wet food in combination whenever possible to help increase the level of water in your dog's diet.
Nutrition is only one part of the equation! Be sure to give your dog plenty of love, plenty of exercise and see your veterinarian regularly to help ensure total wellness.
Recommended Feeding Portions (Based on a standard 8 oz dry measuring cup)
Every dog is a little different, so optimal feeding amounts may vary with age, size and activity level. Please use the information below as an initial recommendation only and adjust when needed.
1/4 - 1
1 - 1 1/4
1 1/4 - 2
2 - 2 1/2
2 1/2 - 3
3 - 3 1/2
3 1/2 - 4
For dogs over 125 lbs:
Add 1/4 cup per additional 10 lbs.
For Puppies and Pregnant or Nursing Dogs:
Feed 25% more than the amounts listed.
Combination Feeding: If feeding with wet food, reduce dry amount by 1/3 cup for every 6 oz of wet food.

I would like to try a blueberry melomel this fall but do not know of a good recipe to use does anyone hve one that they know is good and would not mind sharing?
I would like to try a blueberry melomel this fall but do not know of a good recipe to use does anyone hve one that they know is good and would not mind sharing?
How many blueberries do you have for this project? How sweet a mead are you thinking? How many gallons of mead?
My question is, better to add berries to primary or secondary? Yeast choices?
Putting the fruit in the primary produces a different taste than you are used to being a blueberry because the sugar part is turned to alcohol. Adding to the secondary keeps more of the blueberry flavor. You need several pounds a gallon to get a strong flavor. Lavlin 71B-1122 is and excellent fruit yeast to 12-14 ABV. Just rack it off the lees pretty quickly or the yeast starts eating the dead yeast and produces bad tastes and smells. It finishes pretty fast. Should be good by Easter, might be drinkable for the Holidays. Lavlin D-47 would be good as long as you ferment at 68 degrees or lower down to 55 lets say. Will taste rank for a year then you will have an excellent taste I am told. I am just trying some KIV-1116. I k now it is slower taking off and have heard good things about it. EC-1118 is a great yeast that will ferment a brick and go to 18%ABV but it takes a long time, a couple years before the mead mellows out and is not just panty remover. That about taps out my limited experience. I have only been doing this for a little over a year and several batches. I wait til my basement is reliably under 70 degrees to brew. Four degrees hotter produced a really fast fermentation but a strong rough tasting product. That carboy may have to hold down the floor for a couple years. I just racked ons such onto ten pounds of frozen tart pie cherries. In two weeks it comes off and will bulk age at least six months. I am having fun and being retired, that is my job.
I am planning on using blueberry puree on this so I can buy what amount is needed and I will do a 3 gallon batch this time. I am also looking to make a semi sweet wine.
Ken Schramm in The Compleat Meadmaker recommends, for 5 gallons of mead that you add 5 - 7lbs of blueberries for a mild fruit flavor, 7 - 10 for medium and 11+ for strong.
I recently started a batch and added about 8lbs of pureed blueberries to the secondary.
I've done it before by adding the blueberries to the primary but didn't care for the result.
Let me never fall into the vulgar mistake of dreaming that I am persecuted whenever I am contradicted. - Emerson

Is it like 1 teaspoon or 1 tablespoon or something? The label has been torn
Thanks so much

CAPITOLA -- The Capitola City Council will discuss Tuesday whether to change the pension system to require council retirees to pay 100 percent of their retirement benefit, as is done in Watsonville, or give council retirees the option to pay.
City staff have not made a recommendation, leaving the decision up to the council. Such a change could, in effect, mean a pay decrease for council members, who get $500 a month.
The meeting begins at 7 p.m. at City Hall, 420 Capitola Ave. The regular Thursday meeting was moved to Tuesday because of the Thanksgiving holiday.
Mayor Michael Termini asked for the pension discussion, suggesting earlier this year that the city amend its contract with the California Public Employees Retirement System to exclude future council members. But federal law requires all paid employees, including elected and part-time officials, be provided a retirement benefit.
Council members are treated like other miscellaneous city employees, with the city paying 16.5 percent of their salary toward pensions to reach the 24.8 percent contribution required by CalPERS, and city employees contributing 8.3 percent.
In another matter, Public Works Director Steve Jesberg is proposing to repair a 950-foot stretch of the 50-year-old Noble Gulch pipe by awarding a $112,000 sole-source contract to Ebert Corp. of San Jose. After the corrugated steel pipe failed in March 2011, flooding Capitola Village, the city repaired that section but part of the original pipe remains.
"The old pipe has a lot of pitting at the bottom," said City Manager Jamie Goldstein, saying the repairs "will help me sleep at night."
A dispute between Capitola and Santa Cruz County over ownership of the pipe and responsibility for maintenance has not been resolved. Ebert was recommended by the county; a second contractor submitted an informal bid for $185,000.
Goldstein said the city ended the fiscal year with more money than expected, providing funds for this project. The year-end balance, projected at $90,000, was actually $567,000 due to higher than expected sales tax and hotel room tax revenues and lower than expected police overtime expense.
Voters appear to have approved a permanent quarter-cent sales tax, which would raise an estimated $900,000 annually for street improvements and to restore reserves depleted by flooding. The measure is ahead by 81 votes; provisional ballots from the Nov. 6 election are still being counted.
Also, a new $1 fee will be required for every city permit starting Jan. 1, due to Senate Bill 1186. For every dollar collected, 30 cents will go to the state's Disability Access Education Resolving Fund and 70 cents to Capitola to ensure new commercial developments meet accessibility requirements.
The law requires the city to have a certified access specialist, and Capitola expects to hire a local consultant to fill this role.

From rum-laced banana bread to mini cranberry panettone and fruit-filled stollen, festive yeast breads make perfect holiday gifts.
Pumpkin-Honey-Beer Bread
Mix the batter only until the dry ingredients disappear. (Lumps are normal.) Overmixing causes tough or misshapen loaves.
Apple-Cheddar Bread
Try this bread sandwiched with ham and apple slices, or cut it into cubes and toast it to make croutons for salads and soups.
Spinach-Feta Scones
Day-old scones are firm enough to slice open without crumbling. Tuck in a few paper-thin slices of country ham for an unforgettable ham "biscuit."
Cranberry-Orange BreadForget French pastry. This sweet holiday tea bread, topped with a Grand Marnier glaze and laced with cranberries, orange zest, and butter, is major league amazing. Even better, it's make-ahead friendly and freezes perfectly. Bake two large loaves or six small ones.
Christmas StollenStollen is a traditional German Christmas yeast bread that's filled with dried fruit and topped with a sugary glaze and candied cherries. It's usually shaped into a folded oval and is a welcomed gift during the holidays.
Mini Cranberry PanettonesThis version of the sweet Italian yeast bread called panettone is made in muffin tins to streamline the baking process. Tuck these little cranberry-studded gems into holiday decorated plastic bags or colorful Chinese take-out cartons and give to neighbors, teachers, or friends.
Freezer Cinnamon RollsGooey cinnamon rolls are tricked out with an extra special filling of toasted pecans, cinnamon, and dried fruit. But their best feature: the rolls go from freezer to oven in just 30 minutes. Perfect for make-ahead holiday breakfasts or gift giving.
JulekageTypically baked with candied citrus rind and either spiced apples or dried fruit (our choice), this rich Scandinavian sweet bread is then crowned with a sweet, snowy-white glaze.
Sugar-Frosted Cardamom BraidLike yeast breads in Scandinavia, this beautiful braided loaf is scented with spicy-sweet cardamom, an aromatic spice used in baked goods and curries. A little lemon zest adds more lush flavor, and then the sweet, easy-to-make bread is frosted with sugar.
Mini Pumpkin Spice LoavesPerfect for gift giving, these mini loaves have just the right balance of holiday spices like cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg. Top the loaves with cream cheese icing before giving or wrap un-iced loaves individually and present with a small jar of icing.
Southern Soda BreadThis hearty bread is simple and quick to make, so prepare extra and share with friends. Present each loaf by wrapping in plastic wrap and then in a festive kitchen towel. Tie with colorful ribbon or raffia then round out the gift by adding a jar of sweet preserves.
Pecan-Topped Pumpkin BreadSo, don't expect any leftovers with this easy holiday tea bread made with canned pumpkin. Wrap it first in plastic, then orange tissue, and tie with a chocolate colored ribbon.
Potato-Sour Cream BiscuitsLine a pretty basket with decorative linens then pile high with these tender and flaky biscuits. Gather the linen at the top and tie with a festive bow before presenting to neighbors or friends.

Coconut Banana Bread with Lime GlazeTake a walk on the tropical side for the holidays with this oh, so good banana bread. Laced with dark rum and coconut, it's crowned with a tart lime glaze. Gift wrap with a funky holiday kitchen towel and tie with red string licorice.
Mini Fruit and Sunflower LoavesSneak these cute little fruit and sunflower seed loaves onto co-workers' desks for a holiday surprise. With a scoop of cornmeal and a splash of maple syrup, they're a sweet-savory combination that's bound to win over even picky eaters.
Golden Pumpkin-Walnut LoafSugar and spice and everything nice come together in this simple but unusual pumpkin-walnut tea loaf. Spices include cardamom, ginger, and mace instead of the usual cinnamon, so make it for friends and family that like a taste of adventure with their holiday flavor.
Pumpkin-Cranberry MuffinsAlways a hit at holiday brunch, these moist pumpkin muffins are studded with dried cranberries for a sweet and tangy flavor. For gift giving, line a holiday craft box with parchment. Add a bundle of plastic-wrapped muffins, top with the lid, and tie shut with raffia.
Panettone (Italian Christmas Bread)This sweet cylinder-shaped bread is similar to a fruitcake and traditionally served during the holidays in italy.
Chocolate-Filled BunsIf eating chocolate-filled croissants is one of your favorite holiday memories, you'll want to try this healthier recipe featuring a soft whole wheat bun and a reduced-fat chocolate filling.
Cinnamon-Date-Pecan Rolls with Maple GlazeThese extra-special cinnamon rolls are enhanced with both dates and pecans and make a perfect offering for a holiday breakfast or brunch.
Fig-Walnut Sticky BunsMake warm sticky buns a part of your family holiday tradition if they aren't already. Dried figs and chopped walnuts give these extra flavor and crunch.
Cinnamon Crisp-Topped Cream Cheese-Banana-Nut BreadThe sugary, cinnamon-scented streusel topping turns plain banana bread into a holiday treat that's perfect for breakfast or brunch. Or wrap up a loaf and a give it as a gift.
Praline Pull-Apart BreadStart with frozen bread roll dough to create this impressive sweet holiday breakfast treat.
Pumpkin-Cinnamon Streusel BunsCinnamon rolls take on a whole new holiday flavor with the addition of pureed pumpkin and nutmeg.

I was not familiar with the Elm Creek Series but they look very good so I will check them out. Is it best to read them in order or are the characters different so that it doesn't matter?
I just finished reading Guests of the Emperorer by Janice Young-Brooks and it was excellent. It is an older book (maybe 90's) and not one I might have chosen but a friend loaned it to me and I really liked it. I believe it is based on some actual women who were prisoners during WWII.
This is a great thread and I love reading the recommendations. Thank you!
Has anyone found any good free books on Amazon?? Are there any other places to get decent free books?
The only of these I have read is Daughter of Joy- very fast and good read. The great thing is that there are freebies on Amazon but sometimes they come and go very quickly. Bonnie Hunter of Quiltville.com often times posts a freebie on her daily blog email to subscribers- sometimes they are really free or they may be from the Amazon Prime lending library at a reduced price or you get one free per month from the lending library.
I just finished Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn which I really enjoyed. Not sure what is next!
I'm reading The House of Thunder by Dean Koontz I've had it for a while and just getting around to it. I have tons of books here and DH bought me a Kindle so now I have more books than time. I like the sound of Mrs. Lincoln's Dressmaker. I also like John Grisham. Thanks for the book info. Sue
I'm reading a book about a lady who hiked the Pacific Crest Trail.... at the moment... when I'm done... I'll post the info...sorry it's not at hand at the moment. I LOVE to read real life stories of other people's travels or travails.... rather than the fiction novels.... if you have more suggestions other than War stories, would love to hear of them...... I did post awhile ago and got some wonderfully inspiring suggestions... I'm just a slow reader,,,,,,,some of my favourite so far have been Peter Jenkins.... but I'm sure as I read .... I will find many more inspiring individuals!

I'm thinking that I could cut down an observation hive super and use that in building an "Ulster" styled observation hive for medium frames.
I'd be interested in knowing what the distance is between the glass panes.
I'd also like to know if the wood is pine, or something a little harder?

Movie Review: One Day
Anne Hathaway and Jim Sturgess star in Academy Award-nominated director Lone Scherfig's movie version of a British novel.
Director: Lone Scherfig Rating: PG-13 Studio: Random House Films
One Day is taken from a bestselling, much-loved, very British David Nicholls novel. Based on viewing the movie version directed by Lone Scherfig (An Education), it's not a book we would read at gunpoint. The film follows for two decades yearly a specific single day in the lives of a pair of Edinburgh College students who shared a one-night stand in the late 1980s—a bookish, politically committed working class girl from northern England and a handsome, self-centered rich boy. Over the years come marriages, kids, many styles of music, unfulfilled dreams, disastrous personal choices, let alone a couple of wardrobe missteps and some highly dubious wigs. It all ends in a random tragedy meant to pack a wicked emotional wallop.
For some, it will deliver a giggle and a massive sigh of relief. Those who already love the book, of course, may already be in tears when they buy their tickets. Think of One Day as When Harry Met Sally meets The Way We Were…only without the benefit of humor or dead-on casting. Whether or not you will be deeply moved, let alone awake, by the movie's finale may depend entirely on whether or not you buy Anne Hathaway as a savvy, self-deprecating Brit and whether you detect any real chemistry between she and the gifted Jim Sturgess. Let's also note that Hathaway, in a role tailor-made for the intelligent, acerbic Carey Mulligan, who starred in Scherfig's much better An Education, is, not Carey Mulligan. Ms. Mulligan was, presumably, lucky to be otherwise engaged. You should be so lucky.

The WRECKING CREW Documentary Film at NAMM
Director/Writer Denny Tedesco's (Son of Guitarist, Tommy Tedesco) chronicle of pop music's Heyday delves back to the late 50s, the 60s and the 70s, an era of all night recording sessions in cramped, smoke-filled rooms: when real musicianship was not only appreciated, it was demanded.
Stocked with rare, historical footage and interviews with the group's members along with testimonials from music giants Dick Clark, Herb Alpert, Glen Campbell, Cher, Brian Wilson, Jimmy Webb, Don Randi, Gary Lewis among many, THE WRECKING CREW is an essential document of contemporary pop history and a must-see for anyone who's ever picked up an instrument, lived-off pop radio and collected music.
"Voyage-Air guitars appeal to session players in particular," said Mr. Michael Ferrucci, VP of Sales and Marketing for Voyage-Air Guitar, Inc. "With Voyage-Air instruments, a session player can carry along an OM, a Dreadnought and a full-size electric guitar… in about the same space as a single old-fashioned guitar. This conveniently gives them a wide range of sounds and tone for a studio session – all with professional-grade, studio-ready instruments."
The Wrecking Crew will screen at 10am, Sunday, January 16 in room 204C at the NAMM Show. There will be door prizes about, and info about how to arrange private screenings at music stores and other music events.
