Klein was "a great source of information about the songs and their meanings," says Hancock, who plays the Berklee Performance Center August 25, "the environment that is described in the songs and in some cases when and why Joni wrote a particular song, what was happening in her life that provoked her to write that song." Speaking to me on the phone from LA, Hancock says that he and Klein spent "a few weeks" just talking about the songs and their meaning, choosing the material, and coming up with a list of vocalists.
It's an impressive list, with expected guests and some good left-field surprises: Souza ("Amelia"), Norah Jones ("Court and Spark"), and Corinne Bailey Rae ("River") — of course. But also Tina Turner ("Edith and the Kingpin"!) and the great lady Herself ("Tea Leaf Prophecy"). Perhaps best of all is Leonard Cohen intoning a Beat-poet spoken-word rendition of "The Jungle Line." The biggest surprise: on first listen, this is not a commercial sop like Herbie's last guest-star-studded crossover outing, 2005's Possibilities, which featured, among others, Annie Lennox, Christina Aguilera, Paul Simon, and Sting, in a hodgepodge of old and new pop songs. TheJoni Letters is a moody, cohesive whole, with long stretches of subdued improvisation between verses from Hancock and Wayne Shorter. A few pieces are instrumental only, and one of them is Shorter's classic "Nefertiti." (Joni as the mysterious, impetuous queen of the Nile?)
Hancock says to expect a career-spanning set at Berklee — '60s Blue Note material, Head Hunters funk, and more — from his quartet with exciting young Beninese guitarist and vocalist Lionel Loueke, electric-bassist Nathan East, and drummer Vinnie Colaiuta. He'll play both electric and acoustic keyboards. But don't expect anything from River: "We won't have time to rehearse. And one of the things we discovered for the material that's on the record is that it's really more appropriate with a feminine singer than a male singer."
The SF Jazz Collective's Live 2007 is worth seeking out —for the all-star cast and the compositions by this year's dedicatee composer, Thelonious Monk, yes, but also for a second disc of original pieces by the band members that includes Dave Douglas's "San Francisco Suite" and Renee Rosnes's "Lion's Gate." The latter is a classic post-bop steeplechase of a tune with rhythmic and harmonic twists and turns that inspires some of the best playing on record by Joshua Redman (some flat-out burning swing in contrast with his recent stop-start rhythmic gamesmanship) and by the pianist/composer herself.

you know i have been wanting one of those big flat screens for years.
hell i still got one of those old TVs with the picture tube--i think it is a 25"
anyway i find all kinds of deals like 32" FS for $199 and so on.
but every time i pull that credit card out i think --now what have i got to watch on the tube that is worth $200+ shipping?
every time i turn that 'devil-box " on there are gays going at it, opras fat ass, rosies fat ass, obamma telling a lie, or some economist telling me how the economy is booming.
about all that ever plays on it these days in the weather channel --generally with the sound off.
a big screen ain't gonna go all that much for the weather map---
a TV only has value if there is good programming to watch, the garbage the networks are spewing out today makes TV sets a nearly giveaway item.
i saw on the net somewhere where garbage men were finding flat screen tv's in the garbage bins --at first the police thought they were hot. as it turns out the TV were thrown away because the people who lived there were kicked out and the home had been re-poed by the bank .
you see the HOMELESS SHELTER would not let them take personal items over a certain size---

Hunger is caused by food poverty, a lack of geographic and/or financial access to nutritious food. In New York City, one of the richest cities in the world, food poverty is around every corner. Throughout the five boroughs, approximately 1.4 million people — mainly women, children, seniors, the working poor and people with disabilities — rely on soup kitchens and food pantries.
The Meal Gap, New York City's official measure of food insecurity, represents the meals missing from the homes of those struggling to put food on the table. Because the meal gap can be mapped, we can see where hunger lives.
Read more about the Meal Gap.
Financial pressures such as unemployment, health care issues, housing
costs, and low wages continue to strain the budgets of New Yorkers with
low to moderate incomes. Low-income New Yorkers often have to choose
between providing enough food for themselves or their families and
paying the month's rent or utility bills. Middle-income New Yorkers are
also feeling the pressure, increasingly reporting difficulty affording
groceries. With food prices steadily rising, struggling New Yorkers' ability to buy food for themselves and their families is at a crisis level.
To make matters worse, approximately 3 million New Yorkers live in
low-income neighborhoods that lack access to affordable, nutritious
food. With their budgets already strained, and the prevalence of
low-cost, low-quality food in these neighborhoods, these residents face
significant challenges in maintaining a healthy lifestyle — leading to
high concentrations of diet-related conditions such as diabetes, obesity
and hypertension.

Pretty sure. I've had that driftwood in there for several months now. I mean to some extent maybe. It did turn the water to a bit of a tea color to begin with but that had started to fade away after the first month or so(I soaked the driftwood for a couple weeks before putting it in there).
Some of the color may still be from that, but I think there's almost a greenish tint to the color the water is turning. I mean the tea color hadn't completely gone yet before it started getting darker. I think the color may be a combination of the two things but it still definitely looks brown.

120 gal in need of suggestions
Hello everyone,
I just recently in the last few months decided to throw away the plastic plants in my tank and try out a planted tank. It's pretty low tech. Here's what I have:
120 gal glass 48x24x24
4 bulb Odyssea t5ho light
140 lbs of small grain gravel
2 large pieces of malaysian driftwood (1 more extra large piece soaking in garage)
Plants include:
anacharis, wisteria, amazon sword, ozelot sword, java fern, 2 types of anubias, moss ball
Fish include: 1 black ghost knife, 3 bala sharks, 6 giant danios, 7 angelfish, 2 denison barbs, 1 gold gourami, 2 SAEs, 1 oto, 1 rubber lip pleco
Supplements: daily Flourish excel, weekly API Leaf Zone, flourish root tabs
I just got the t5 lights on the tank last week after having leds on there before. I have 4 6500k bulbs. The problem I'm running into is that my water is starting to turn a brownish cloudy color which I assume is due to a rapid increase in algae growth. I'm looking for some fast growing plants that like a decent amount of light that I can put in there to balance everything out. I was thinking water sprite as a possibility but looking for more suggestions.

Traffic from Melbourne's south and west would be funnelled into a new six-lane Airport Drive in an effort to curb growing congestion into Melbourne Airport.
The $80 million extension will link up the Western Ring Road via Airport Drive and feed into a fourth terminal planned at Tullamarine, expected to service a budget flight market.
Traffic and council stakeholders were recently shown plans that included a rail link reserve along the extended Airport Drive.
A draft master plan setting out the airport's strategy for the next 20 years was released on Monday. It shows the airport generated 110,000 daily vehicle trips in 2011 and this was expected to grow to 230,000 by 2033.
Among the projects in the master plan are the widening of the Western Ring Road and Centre Road, but Melrose Drive is mooted for downsizing when Airport Drive - from the Ring Road to link intersections of Sharps Road, Melrose Drive and Mercer Drive - is built.
Airport Drive is to be built first as a two-lane, two-way road, but "when demand warranted", would be upgraded to a four or six-lane road.
Melbourne Airport spokesman Matt Francis said that Airport Drive would provide "a significant benefit for people coming from the western part of town".
"We're starting construction on that next year and [hope to have] it operational the following year."
Of a much-promoted rail link to the airport, the plan says that on airport land, the line would be completely underground, including a station with direct links to terminals, to continue development.
The station would be located between the current car park and the terminals.
There is also talk of better links from regional and interstate rail, including use of current or proposed bus routes from train stations at Deer Park, Broadmeadows and Watergardens.
Dave Jones, the RACV manager of roads and traffic, said the organisation supported the road link alternative.
Drivers could use Airport Drive now as part of their route to the airport but it was a "convoluted" journey, he said, and called for electronic variable message signs to alert drivers to congestion and accidents on either the Tullamarine Freeway or the Western Ring Road-Airport Drive route.
"It is important that if drivers are coming into the airport from the Western Ring Road that they can be made aware of traffic conditions early on so they can switch to the best route," Mr Jones said.
He said the RACV also supported rail links to the airport.

Any one tried one of these and care to share the experience. What sort of range does it have and what sort of waves does it like? Is it a good wave board like the mini driver or could you use it as an every day board I fancy the look of it but have not seen one in the flesh yet
No announcement yet.

More of an everyday board. It goes from 2 foot punchy and up. I haven't had in really big surf yet so I don't know what the top range is. It feels similar to the mini driver just a bit more user friendly in smaller stuff.

It's funny how every one seams to think the mini is only for good waves, I use mine as a daily driver in anything from 2 ft to well overhead and it flys. I actually think it catches and rips waves way waser than my subscorcher which has 1.5 more liters and ment for mush. I recon the pile driver would make a great every day board for. 90% of surfers vanguard lovers aside.
Yeah I used my Mini Driver in anything that wasn't Sweet Potato worthy. It wasn't ideal in some of the smaller stuff, but it had enough foam forward to get by.
I think the Pile Driver would be a good improvement on the lower end of the MD, and an improvement for snappy turns on steep walls rather than tubes and carves that the MD really excels at.
The MD is still very versatile though.
Thanks for your comments guys im looking for a mid size board I have the grovlers covered Baked potato and El Fuego so looking for something from chest up tossing up between a V2 rocket ,Pile driver & unibrow something with a bit of rocker. Im an older guy so need a bit more foam than most. Iv'e read comments about the mayhem boards not going so well in the higher volume. Whats your opinion and what board do you think you would prefer as an every day chest high up to a couple of foot over head steep take offs with some push.
I've found the Unibrox to be great board for anything up to overhead (may go bigger I just haven't tried it) for steeper waves, with some pop...(I mainly surf at Ocean Beach in San Fran). At least twice a session I take off too late or am in the wrong position and end up squeeking out a drop I wouldn't have made on my Sub-Scorcher's big nose. The Uni is by no means a short board nose but it has less width/more rocker than I thought handling it in the shop. I really want a V2 but that thing has a lot of width in the nose; I don't think it's going to treat you much different than the El Feugo on steeper faces. Alternators are a terrible recommendation because they're so hard to find now but if it helps I go: Forecast is 3to 5ft (which means we're getting sneaker 6ft) I grab Unibrow Forecast 4 to 6ft (which means we're getting sneaker 7ft) Alternator I am not a shortboard guy. But the Alternator is right up there with the Channel Islands Flyer for being super user friendly, great paddler. One thing I'd say is we just started getting long period winter swell and a few 5/6ft days felt like I could have used more rail line than the Uni. All personal preference. Cheers
Well there was a debate about this going on over in the Uni forum and a few people disagreed with me.....but I think the Uni paddles just ok for the boards in the hybrid genre. The reason it can handle more size and steep drops (less nose, more rocker, more rail curve) means it just doesn't paddle as well as the Sub. I personally think my 5'10 sub and 5'10 Uni paddle about the same even though the Uni has 1.2L more of volume. That's not a bad thing, but I wouldn't size a Uni at the same volume as an El Feugo if you're trying to paddle into bigger waves. But again other people disagree so probably good idea to read through that Uni forum. Cheers

Dom 6'4" with K3 fins
Unibrow 6'4" with KR JP5 fins
Quadrafive 6'6" with KR JP5 Carbon Tune
I think I'm pretty sold on a Pile Driver to replace my Futura. The original line of thought was to replace my 6'4" Dom with a 6'4" Pile Driver but feedback turned me off that idea, plus feedback is some of the (recurring) dings on my Dom are eminently fixable. I have a Futura which just doesn't 100% gel with me. It's a great planshape and rocker but I just need an extra litre or two down the stringer (centre) for it to work in small/medium waves the way I'd like. By the time the waves have enough power to push the Futura I prefer other boards in the quiver (UB and Q5). So I suspect the Futura will go on eBay imminently, to be replaced by the Pile Driver. The Pile Driver looks like the board the Futura almost is for me , but not quite.
Buzzy I went to order a Pile Driver a little before christmas and was told they wont be in aust till mid march couldn't wait that long for a new board so i bought a V2 rocket then went six weeks or so with no swell. It's finally come in with an on shore however yesterday we had 3`5 foot off shore/cross wind on some beaches and i loved the rocket.

I don't like it when players go down, but with the Giants track record with healthy players and trying to keep a team intact, all I can say to the other team is cry me a river.
orakpo with the pec reminds me of the strahan torn pec too.
Not rooting for injuries at all- its a part of the game and when they occur they certainly can change what a team can and can't do- orakpo hurts skins pass rush a great deal.
As for our injuries I think locklear and Beatty are the better combo but we have to hope Beattys back doesn't act up and now brewer (who is still raw) may become swing.
Barden would love to wally pip hixon- now is his chance
An doesn't appear to serious but brown and Wilson now have a chance- brown seemed to pick up pass protection nicely
I cant believe I am hearing Skins fans saying they think Orakpo is overrated and it wont be a big loss.... wow. He was the head of the defense in my opinion, along with London Fletcher. That's a huge loss.
And it sounds like the Eagles lost their starting center for the year as well.

SANTA CLARA, Calif., (April 28, 2005) – Leading video games publisher and developer Namco Hometek Inc. announced today it will be adding a new "take no prisoners" street fighting game, "Urban Reign(TM)," to its line-up of fighting titles. "Urban Reign" will be available exclusively for the PlayStation(R)2 computer entertainment system this fall.
In "Urban Reign," players assume the role of a gritty street brawler who has been hired by one of the city's dominant gangs to protect its leader. Players are thrown into a full-blown turf war, involving gang corruption and street justice that spans from the neighborhood block all the way to the upper levels of city government
Developed by a team with members from previous "TEKKEN(R)" and "SOULCALIBUR(R)" projects, "Urban Reign" promises to offer players non-stop, inner-city brawling action with no time restrictions or referees. Back alleys, junkyards and bars serve as battlegrounds for more than 60 different fighters, all of which boast their own unique set of fighting styles including boxing, wrestling and street fighting. Players can select from over 30 weapons – including bottles, bats and 2x4's – to be used in the destructible arenas to add to the mayhem.
"With our experience in producing high quality fighting titles, 'Urban Reign' is set to raise the bar in the genre," said Yoshi Niki, Business Unit Director at Namco Hometek Inc. "'Urban Reign' is a different type of fighting game than what consumers are used to seeing from Namco, so we are hopeful that gamers embrace this new street brawler as much as our acclaimed fighting franchises."
Focusing on the urban-brawler style of street fighting, players can team up with an AI-controlled character to pull off a host of devastating and destructive combo maneuvers against multiple enemies throughout the game's 100 missions. "Urban Reign" also supports multi-tap play for up to four players to determine who really rules the hood.

I talked to Coastal Sciences a couple of years ago. Cost was 25$ per sample if I remember correctly. Isotope technology can only test down to about 10% adulteration and can only detect cane or corn syrup adulteration.
If you are looking for rice syrup adulteration, isotope technology will not help. They can use an additional test looking for protein profiles (45$?) that can show that there is something that isn't honey in the sample but can't definitively say that it is rice syrup. This inability for the test to "prove" that the sample contains rice syrup makes it difficult legally for packers to refuse shipments adulterated with rice syrup that are relying on the outsourced isotope technology for testing. If the packer has their own internal chemist looking at samples they are probably on different legal ground.
If you are looking to test for pesticides the testing is much more expensive (more than 200$/per sample) and requires different technology.
Samples are just that......samples. By blending a number of randomly chosen samples and using that as the basis for accepting or rejecting the whole lot then testing costs can be a very minor expense. For example a single $200 dollar test representing a 20000 lb. lot would amount to a penny a pound and let's not forget that with the sophisticated equipment nowadays the LOD may be as low as .44 ppb (or so I have been recently told). Stop for a moment and consider just how tiny that would be. In terms of world population you would be talking about 3 to 4 people.
Ramona brings up some good points about testing for adulteration, something which she obviously has a much better understanding of than I.
"People will generally accept facts as truth only if the facts agree with what they already believe."- Andy Rooney
The problem with pooling samples is that you dilute any anomolous data....for instance.
Lets say you get barrels of honey, and to keep the math easy, lets say they each contain 500lbs of honey (they really hold about 640).
A 20,000lb lot (as Jim suggests pooling) is 40 of these barrels.
Let's say that one of the barrels has 25ppb coumaphos (I think the limit is 20ppb...at least in Canada). Let's say the rest are clean, and only have 1ppb coumaphos.
Now, we pool them. The concentration of Coumaphos is averaged out between all of the 40 source barrels...(25+39)/40...the pooled sample reads 1.6ppb...safe and clean by any reasonable standard. This all works out if you are in fact pooling the honey and making sure it is well mixed from all sources before bottling...but if you bottle a barrel at a time, you have 500lbs of honey going out with 25ppb...even though you spent $200 on a test. If the results make you suspcicous and you want to follow up and find out what is going on, now you are doing another 40 tests at the tune of $8000 for 20,000lbs of honey.
If your goal is to provide honey with really low levels of coumaphos (rather than making sure it isn't an illegal level), it gets even tougher. Let's say one barrel is at 7ppb and the rest are at 1ppb ....now, the pooled sample reads (7+39)/40 1.1ppb...good by any standard (many tests would see this as below the limit of detection...essentially a zero)...but you still have honey going out at 7ppb.
If you are going to pool samples, you need some kind of plan based upon how big the samples are, how much you are going to pool the product for bottling, and what levels you are looking for. Pooling 20,000lbs together for a sample...unless all 20,000lbs are blended together for bottling...makes little sense to me.

Missoula woman in critical condition after stabbing
MISSOULA, Mont. - A Missoula woman is hospitalized in stable condition and her husband is in custody after an alleged stabbing that occurred near Desmet Road and Expressway around 2:30 p.m. Monday.
Missoula Sheriff's deputies arrested 45-year old Emmitt Hogsten shortly after the alleged stabbing.
Detective Jason Johnson said the 34-year-old woman was able to escape her husband after the alleged assault and stumbled into a business on Desmet Road, asking for someone to call 911.
Johnson said the woman was rushed to the hospital in critical condition, and her husband was arrested without incident.
"His demeanor was described to me as calm and collected," said Johnson.
Deputies impounded the truck where the alleged stabbing occurred. Johnson said a 5-6 inch, fixed blade knife is visible through the window on the floor of the truck.
"Our detectives are still taking interviews and trying to make sense of what happened," said Johnson. "Our thoughts and prayers go out to this young woman. We hope that she recovers quickly."
There is no evidence as of now that this incident is related to a homicide reported Monday morning in Arlee.

Where I stayed
We were on the trail & some folks said a mama and baby bear were seen by the cars and since we had the top down and open cold drinks in the car, we thought maybe we should head back up there to let the top up and get the tripod
In usual 'us' style, (ok this was totally my fault) we had an odd adventure. We headed back to the car, to get the tripod & I went to reach for the keys in my pocket...guess what? I locked them in the trunk. And did I mention the top was down. And it started to sprinkle. Guess what? You can't take the back seat out or anything. So we called Triple A & they called a locksmith (Trapper, if I could get to my phone which was also in the trunk I would have called ya :) ). So Tim told me to go back to the 1800's cabin & just chill until the locksmith came. On the way back to the cabin I just thought I'd check ALL my pockets one more time....guess what? I remembered to put the keys in a little side pocket of my shorts before I put my purse in the trunk.....so......we finally got in touch with the locksmith and called it off. Just a reminder that blonde is a state of mind, and NOT a hair color. And a good reminder for poor Timmy Ray that when I get in panic mode, I freak until I can slow down and think. I jump to the worst possible scenario as soon as possible. I can't help it...it's in my genes (ain't that right Mom?), Anyway, it turned out well after all, we shot some more pictures, then finished the drive to wander around Gatlinburg a little. A little later, back at the time share, I ended up walking into someone else's unit cause I got turned around when I came up the stairs. We hadn't met them yet. Fortunately, they seemed really nice. The did lock the door as soon as I backed out, apologizing profusely. Maybe that second mojito wasn't such a good idea....
Tomorrow we'll either hang at the pool, go to Dollywood or check out this waterfall we found out about where we can walk behind it. Can't wait to get some shots there! Stay tuned....

2009 GTA IV modding highlights
Grand Theft Auto IV - Modifications | @ 01:57 PM MDT | By rappo
With the recent updates of both SparkIV and OpenIV to allow for the replacement of in-game textures, there has been an explosion in Grand Theft Auto IV mods. Here, I'll highlight some of the best downloads made available in our file archive this past week:
GTA IV Car SpawnerAlexander Blade has created an excellent tool for spawning any vehicle in GTA IV.
The application allows you to define hotkeys for any vehicle or simply minimize your game and select the vehicle to spawn. The vehicle will take a second to load and then appear right in front of you in game.
WPL ManagerThis tool allows you to edit WPL files, which contain the coordinates of where models are loaded in GTA IV's map.
Right now you can only edit the models loaded and its coordinates, but a future version will include the ability to add new models!

Pequot Lakes adopts preliminary 2014 tax levy
The Pequot Lakes City Council on Tuesday, Sept. 3, adopted a preliminary 2014 tax levy of $1,618,823.
Though that's an 8.91 percent increase, or $132,391, from the 2013 levy of $1,486,432, Mayor Nancy Adams assured residents the final levy adopted in December will be less than this preliminary levy.
The deadline for cities to adopt preliminary levies is Sept. 15. Preliminary levy amounts cannot increase, but can decrease, after being set.
The council will hold a truth in taxation meeting at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 3, for the public to comment on the proposed levy and budget. The council then will likely adopt a final budget and levy at the regular council meeting that night.
The preliminary tax levy number includes a general revenue fund property tax levy of $1,587,868 and a tax abatement levy for Pequot Lakes SuperValu of $30,955.
This will mark the third of 13 years for the tax abatement levy for SuperValu. Before the store was built, the city agreed to abate the city's portion of taxes on the increased value of the development back to the developer from 2012-24.
The 2014 tax abatement levy is $2,523 more than this year.
The council also adopted a Housing and Redevelopment Authority special levy of $38,250 (the same as the past couple of years).
Adams said she finds it extremely annoying and confusing to the public when budgets include whole costs for projects, when in reality the council has already saved a portion of the money.
She cited the roads budget and elections budget as examples.
"We already have put away a good portion from this year to use next year," she said of the roads budget. "We've actually been very frugal in doing it."
Adams noted the council last year put half of the elections budget away for next year, though the 2014 budget shows the entire election budget.
"I personally find it frustrating," she said.
Proposed expenditure increases of $5,000 or more include:
Tax levy funds: wages and benefits; planning and zoning contract services for an environmental flyover; roads and streets engineering fees for two road projects tentatively scheduled for 2014; roads and streets capital outlay and carryover for two road projects tentatively scheduled for 2014 (the city will also use remaining capital outlay funds from 2013); roads and streets debt service to buy dump/plow truck; park capital outlay for Sibley Lake Park power lines project (the city will use remaining capital outlay funds from 2013); and economic development operating supplies for banners and marketing.
Other funds: fire debt service to buy fire truck; and sewer capital outlay for sewer line on North Washington Street.

So, the Loaded grips were suffering after a couple of good stacks, so I've gone with something new
They're called Grip Rings, and come in a range of colours. Thanks again to Pushie Enterprises for the gear!
/edit: Ha, I also almost forgot! Changed the bars to Syntace 680mm jobs. 710mm was great in the really rough downs, but a bit too wide for my back on longer days. The 680mm have 12deg sweep, 10mm rise, but no upsweep, so I get a nice sweep with a wrist friendly flatness, while also getting a slightly more upright position for my back

Bird Conservation
Breeding Bird Atlas
Breeding bird atlases are projects designed to map the distribution of breeding birds within a geographic region. In North America, this region is usually a state or province. Maps for each species that breeds in the region are generated using data collected by volunteer surveyors and conservation organizations and agencies. The maps, along with other information on each species, is compiled in a book at the end of the project. The books are then available for purchase.
The Georgia Breeding Bird Atlas was initiated in 1994 by the Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Resources Division. This multi-year statewide project will fill large gaps in our knowledge and understanding of the natural history and distribution of the bird species breeding within the state. This effort will provide a permanent record of the birds in the state at the end of the 20th century and will provide the first complete, detailed picture of breeding bird distribution in the state and provide a sound baseline from which future changes in bird distribution can be measured.
This baseline information will be used by the Department of Natural Resources, other governmental agencies, land use planners, and organizations to assist in the conservation of birds throughout Georgia.
Breeding Bird Atlas Objectives
To volunteer for Georgia's Breeding Bird Atlas, please call (478)994-1438.

Discussion in 'Chevy Suburban Forum (GMC Yukon XL)' started by stephenwsmith, Oct 26, 2011.
I have tried to upload this picture to show the codes. Can you read them?
That White Sticker is the.....Service Parts I.D. Tag......as you can see it has the Vehicles Vin # Number and a Series of Letters and Number's and those are RPO Code's.....which stands for Regular Production Options......In short what the Truck Came with from the Factory.....from the what Engine to the Color of the interior, if you go to the below Link, you will be able De-Code those RPO Code's,.....example the RPO Code for a 4L60e Transmission is RPO Code....M30......and RPO Code 50U is the Color of the Vehicle, which is Summit/Olympic White and so on,
Z85 is your suspension code, which in your case is stock ride height
GT4 I believe is the rear end, but not 100% sure
Basically it is the holy grail for your truck, the paint code is also on there as well.
Is that the good transmission?
If your Asking about the.....4L60e???......I looked at your Service Parts Tag.....and you have RPO Code MT1.....which is the (HYDRA-MATIC 4L80-E) TRANSMISSION, 4 SPD, AUTO W/ELECT CONTROLS H.D.....which is a Excellent Transmission!!.
So the VERY dead battery I have (wont even run radio after you run truck for 30 min) and this transmission
RPO Code MT1.....which is the (HYDRA-MATIC 4L80-E) TRANSMISSION, 4 SPD, AUTO W/ELECT CONTROLS H.D.
would make you think that the problem from the battery is causing trans to run wierd, in driving it around the parking lot?
great info on the replies to your question ......thanks Mike for letting those of us know how to read these rpocodes....appreciated !!!!
Hi Mike, on my Suburban, the 2002 2500 4*4 with the 6 liter, would a top/side battery work, that way I could have the top terminals for jump starting etc, the battery is 8" high with the top terminals 3/4" taller than the side terminal alone.
I got the truck for $2700 with 100k miles from the State Auction, just found out today. I want to go get the battery today, so was hoping you'd see this and let me know

Smiling, its white I just heard today we got the truck for $2700 with 100k miles on it, it has some fender damage by the front door, like something pinched it there, more to do. I'd appreciate any other insight you might have for what to do to the truck. I want to get the seating fixed, think I will leave the black vinyl floor mats in, its really heavy, and probably good with teenagers etc... what do you think. The interior is blue, I want to toss the front seats out, as the drivers seat is cut up, but the passenger seat is good and middle row seat is also good, but there is no center console, and I'd like to match the middle and rear seat, as I've not seen any blue vinyl third seats out there used.
So anything else you learned from my codes?
Separate names with a comma.

Aimee Mullins:
The opportunity of adversity
The thesaurus might equate "disabled" with synonyms like "useless" and "mutilated," but ground-breaking runner Aimee Mullins is out to redefine the word. Defying these associations, she shows how adversity — in her case, being born without shinbones — actually opens the door for human potential.

In an attempt to get people talking about something other than the elevator fight video, Solange and Jay-Z released a statement yesterday about the incident.
"As a result of the public release of the elevator security footage from Monday, May 5th, there has been a great deal of speculation about what triggered the unfortunate incident. But the most important thing is that our family has worked through it. Jay and Solange each assume their share of responsibility for what has occurred. They both acknowledge their role in this private matter that has played out in the public. They both have apologized to each other and we have moved forward as a united family. The reports of Solange being intoxicated or displaying erratic behavior throughout that evening are simply false. At the end of the day families have problems and we're no different. We love each other and above all we are family. We've put this behind us and hope everyone else will do the same."
I'm not sure they needed to release a statement. In a 24 hour news cycle, it is already being pushed out by other events and with no audio there is nothing really to do but speculate and after several days of that, is there anything left to say? Well, apparently Beyonce didn't need to say anything because her name is not in the statement. I know she wasn't directly involved in the fight, but I would think that her name would at least be mentioned.

"As A Future Chaplain, I Hope To Continue To Build Up Soldiers And Their Family Members."
My call to the Army chaplaincy started back in ROTC (Reserve Officer Training Corps) as a cadet. Every cadet must put a session packet together for their branch preference as an officer. After much prayer, I heard God speak the word "chaplain" to me. I put in a request for an educational delay and was approved. Unlike my fellow cadets who went active duty after being commissioned, I found myself back in the class room. This time no longer as a cadet, but as a chaplain candidate pursing a master's degree to be qualified as an Army chaplain.
To me being a chaplain candidate is an honor as it allows me time to become equipped spiritually, mentally, physically and emotionally in order to best serve Soldiers and their Families. Serving Soldiers is an honor and a privilege as I learned during my enlisted years as a 92G, food service specialist. Each Soldier is unique in his/her way and brings talents and gifts to the Army Family. As a future chaplain, I hope to continue to build up Soldiers and their Family members as the job of a Soldier is a calling in itself.

We were so successful doing this the first handful of games we played here. Why everyone got away from it and think we need to have elaborate discussions on day 1 still baffles me.
It's why I don't play as often as I'd probably like. There is no strategy on day one, but people insist on over-thinking it anyway.

News: Tagged as FF Skill Sets
New Release: FF58
BERLIN, GERMANY, December 2011 – FontShop International announced the latest additions to its award-winning FontFont® typeface library.
New Design
FF Ernestine
FF Ernestine was born from the search for a versatile monoline text typeface that would feel warm yet serious, feminine yet firm, charming yet sturdy. This resulted in a strong slab serif with playful ball terminals. Its rather large x-height and wide, open shapes enable it to work well down to small sizes; ligatures, stylistic and contextual alternates, a selection of arrows, and two sizes of small caps enrich its typographic palette.
Nina Stössinger first drew the Roman as a study project at the postgraduate Type Design programme in Zurich, and the Italic in dialogue with Hrant Papazian's Armenian design. Both the Roman and the Italic (which doubles as a harmonious companion to the Armenian component) are available in four individually drawn weights. The four corresponding Armenian weights, nicknamed "Vem" —integrated in the Roman and Italic fonts in the Pro version— share the personable character of the family with proportions optimized for the Armenian script.
Updated and Extended FontFonts
After fonts are released, work continues behind the scenes to improve and extend the usefulness of the faces with the addition of new weights and greater language support. FontFont is pleased to announce extensions to the following typefaces, available immediately.
FF Quadraat and FF Quadraat Sans: Revised and Extended (New Weights, Pro Language Support Including Cyrillic)
Fred Smeijers has completely overhauled his most popular superfamily. Both FF Quadraat and FF Quadraat Sans get a noticeable update to their designs. FF Quadraat also adds a new weight, Demi Bold, to the family, FF Quadraat Sans and Sans Condensed now come in the additional weights Thin, Extra Light, Light and Demi Bold. They are now available as Pro versions, including support for both the Latin Extended and Cyrillic character sets.
Learn more about the revised FF Quadraat superfamily in this special specimen PDF (2.8 MB).
Download specimen PDF (2.8 MB).
FF Meta Serif: Extended Language Support (Cyrillic & Greek)
FF Meta Serif by Erik Spiekermann, Christian Schwartz and Kris Sowersby now speaks more languages with glyph support extended to cover Cyrillic and Greek alphabets. FF Meta Serif joins its popular sans companion, FF Meta, in offering this broad range of linguistic ability.
FF Signa: Extended (New Weights)
FF Signa with another addition. The face adds six fonts in three new weights: Extra Light, Extra Black, and Ultra, each with its italic companion. They all support Cyrillic.continues to expand his popular super family
New Office and Web FontFonts
FF QType
FF QType by Achaz Reuss offers its additional weights, Compressed, Condensed, Extended, and Semi Extended in new formats, Office and Web. Just a refresher: Offc FontFonts are the best choice for all who work with the widely-used Office apps like Word®, Excel® and PowerPoint®. Pro means that it also supports additional languages (Latin Extended).
FF Skill Sets: The Right Fonts for All Purposes
With thousands of FontFonts to choose from, the options can be as daunting as they are exciting. So let the experts do the work for you. Typography masters Erik Spiekermann and Jürgen Siebert handpicked the best FontFonts, and compiled them in three Skill Sets — for advertising, editorial, and corporate design. Simply select which Skill Set best suits your practice, and you can start designing without fuss. Not only will you have all the right fonts licensed in one collection, you'll save a bundle of cash too.

FontFont Library Tiers
Introducing FontFont Library Tiers: Premium, Collection and Free
In an effort to minimize the amount of time customers spend choosing fonts, we have split our library into three distinct tiers, dubbed the FontFont Library Tier system. Watch out for further information that will come in another post next week.

Corbin just owning so far.
generous strike zone
"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."
No chance. Sick pitch.
Reds game is on MLB Network.
Looking like it will indeed be a real pitchers' duel tonight, so far. We shall see...
Cingrani has retired the first nine.
Quick pace too. He's young and inexperienced but, in a big game I go Cingrani over Leake.
This is the ol Left Hander rounding third and heading for home.

Policies and Procedures
The University must manage all funds received in accordance with
applicable federal, state, and local laws, and with the specific
terms and conditions of any gift, grant or contract. The
University's approval, negotiation and agreement processes and
mechanisms, accounting, budget practices, oversight, and compliance
practices differ depending on whether funds received are
categorized as a gift or as a sponsored award. It is, therefore,
essential that categorization of external funding received be
undertaken with utmost care and with a sound understanding of the
various considerations (outlined below) that determine the funding
type. This policy is intended to facilitate the appropriate
classification of gifts vs. sponsored awards and to ensure that
external funding directed to the University receives the proper
compliance review, administrative oversight, and monitoring.
Funding derived from sources outside the University is an
essential component of the University's financial health and its
ability to undertake and sustain vital research, scholarship,
creative activities, and public service. The classification of
external funding as a gift or sponsored award (see definitions
below) serves as an important step to ensure appropriate accounting
and compliance. In many cases, the determination of whether funding
received is a gift or constitutes a sponsored award is relatively
straightforward, while in other cases, the determinations may be
more difficult. In some cases, external funding may have many
separate components, some of which qualify as gift funds, and other
components that would qualify as sponsored awards.
Gifts typically carry no reciprocal obligations between donor
and recipient, and are often unrelated (or only indirectly related)
to the business interests or mission of the donor. Therefore, in
general, a gift may be an unrestricted donation to the University,
or a donation whose uses may be restricted to an academic area or
to a defined group of academic, departmental or other University
activities (a "restricted gift"). Within the restrictions set by the
terms of a gift agreement, the specific ways in which funds are
used, and the methods of implementing the intent of the donor, are
left to the discretion of the University.
When restricted or unrestricted gifts are received, the
University typically enjoys broad latitude in how to use the gift
funds, and the University, rather than the donor, chooses what
specific faculty members and students may participate in the
activities supported by the gift. A gift generally has no time
limit for its use and expenditure. A gift may be directed by a
donor to support the work of a specific department or faculty
member, but in these cases, the department or faculty member
typically would have broad discretion as to the design and
implementation of, and specific expenditures to support, specific
academic activities for which funds received would be used.
Although it is not unusual for a donor to expect a report on the
general uses of funds donated (for example, a list of activities or
projects that have been supported by a gift) or even a report on
line-item expenses, a donor may not recoup gift funds. If a gift
made for a restricted purpose has not, however, been spent
according to the donor's restrictions, a donor may have grounds to
rescind and recoup the gifted funds.
In sponsored awards (which include sponsored grants and
contracts), however, the business interests or mission of the
source of external funds is most often related directly to the uses
for which the funds are put by the recipient. Because sponsors are
concerned that their funds be used to support activities that
bolster the sponsor's own mission or interests, sponsors typically
provide funding for sponsored awards on the basis of a specific
project or research plan and budget, for a specified period of
time, with funds unused at the expiration of the time period
reverting to the sponsor.
The plan most often involves an identified University faculty or
group of faculty as the academic project leader(s), and specifies
goals and objectives, as well as the methodologies and approaches
to be used, and it is to pursue the program or research plan that
the funds are typically awarded. Sponsors expect the University to
be fully accountable for assuring that the program or research is
conducted with financial, ethical and scientific integrity and in
compliance with all applicable federal and state laws and
Sponsored contracts (which typically are contracts
for sponsored research), unlike grants, are awarded for the pursuit
and completion of specific program or research objectives or tasks,
or the delivery of specific products, within specified timelines.
Sponsors hold the university accountable for successful and timely
completion of contracted deliverables, or work.
In a sponsored award (either grant or contract), both the
University and its faculty are usually responsible for reporting on
progress and results to the sponsor at intervals or milestones
identified in the grant or contract. As part of the terms and
conditions of an award, sponsors require that they have discretion
to examine, even on a line-item basis, the expenditures of the
grant or contract funds, and to disallow and demand repayment of
any funds deemed by the sponsor to have been expended for purposes
other than direct support of the defined activities. If the funded
program or research is not pursued, or the contracted deliverables
not attained, sponsors often reserve the right to recoup all or
some of the sponsored award from the recipient.
In some cases, the distinction between a gift and a sponsored
award (grant or contract) is ambiguous and requires consideration
of many factors, including the funder's mission and potential
benefit from the work; the scope of work; whether there are any
defined activities and, and if so, their nature and the specificity
with which they are defined; the terms of accountability for use of
funds and deliverables; and - in case of failure to complete the
defined activities - the ability of the funder to recoup the funds
provided or to obtain a refund (or receive a reversion) of unused
Alternately, some external funding can initially resemble a gift
because its terms may lack detail about activities to be funded but
may require a mechanism by which a funder would be asked
periodically to approve specific program or research activities
and/or specific uses of portions of funds; such funding would
therefore likely be considered as a sponsored award, because of the
lingering control of the funder over specific activities for which
the funds would be used and/or the budgets for those
In some cases, external funds received may be, by the terms on
which they are provided, in part a gift and in part a sponsored
award. In that event, funds received may be allocated between a
gift and a sponsored award, and the corpus of each portion treated
differently and appropriately for management, accounting,
compliance and oversight purposes.
When the appropriate categorization of external funds received
is uncertain, OGSP and/or school officials should consult with the
Office of the Provost and the Finance Office before making a
determination. These offices, in turn, may consult with the
Advancement Office, and the General Counsel (GC). Similarly, when
Advancement and other offices within the University receive
external funds whose appropriate categorization is uncertain, they
should consult with the Office of the Provost, OGSP and/or GC. In
cases of lingering uncertainty or dispute about the appropriate
categorization of external funds received, the Provost and the
Chief Financial Officer will consult and reach a final
Persons who should comply with this policy include all
submitting offices, OGSP for sponsored project awards; school
officials who administer or negotiate gifts or sponsored awards at
their schools; the Advancement Office; and all centers, and
faculty, who apply for, seek, or receive external funding at Lesley
Only OGSP and the Finance Office may formally accept gift or
sponsored program funding on behalf of the University, and the
Finance Office and OGSP therefore must respect this policy in
determining whether to accept a gift or sponsored project
In situations in which the determination of gift vs. sponsored
project award is not obvious, the offices identified below are
expected to coordinate as follows:
The submitting offices (OGSP and the Advancement Office) and the
Office of the Provost are responsible, under the procedures and
considering the factors specified above, for working in conjunction
with one another to reach a determination as to whether the
external funding is a gift or a sponsored award. The submitting
offices are also responsible for following the normal procedures
required to accept and set up a sponsored award.
School-level officials who are involved in discussions relating
to prospective gifts or who administer gift funds, and school-level
officials who assist faculty with applications for and discussions
relating to sponsored project awards, are responsible for applying
this policy, using factors and procedures outlined above.
The Office of the Provost and GC are responsible for providing
input to the submitting offices and in determining whether funding
is a gift or a sponsored award. The Finance Office is responsible
for establishing gift accounts.
Sponsored Awards.This category includes all funding arrangements in which
the University is providing a return benefit to, or agrees to
provide a defined deliverable or complete a set of activities for,
the sponsor in exchange for the funds, regardless of whether the
funding instrument is designated a contract, cooperative agreement,
grant, consortium agreement, or otherwise. This category includes
all contract or sponsored "grant" funding by foreign entities or
international organizations, whether pursuant to a contract or
sponsored "grant." This category also includes all subcontracts and
subawards, whether from federal or nonfederal sources. Non-federal
Awards are processed only by the submitting office(s). Sponsored
program awards most often support research and education projects,
but in some cases, may be provided for creative activities or
public service projects. Finally, foreign entities or governments
may provide gifts to the University for endowment, financial aid or
other education project, these are reviewed by the General Counsel
and processed by the Finance Office.
Restricted Gift.This category includes gifts made by a donor who instructs
the University as to the use of the funds in a specific academic
area or for specific academic purposes. Gift terms for restricted
gifts may specify particular activities and budgets for those
activities; but usually do not specify how the funding must be
spent or administered, and allow funding to be utilized at the full
discretion of the recipient, although respecting the overall gift
purposes. Financial reporting requested by donors of restricted
gifts is normally in the aggregate, although detailed reports are
sometimes requested; in both cases this reporting is solely
intended to assure proper gift stewardship. Unexpended funds are
not returned to the donor at the expiration of the restricted gift
period. All restricted Gifts are processed by the Finance Office,
but they may also be recorded by the Advancement Office if there is
a need for detailed financial reporting.
Policy on Gifts and Sponsored Awards: Key
Characteristics of Funding Categories
Sponsored Award
Benefit received by funder from activities
Serves philanthropic or personal interest of funder, but does
not serve the primary business purpose of the funder; no goods or
services are received in exchange for contribution; no tangible
benefit received
Serves the primary business or mission interest of the funder,
whose basic activities are integrally related to the research or
education plan, creative activity, or public service-benefit
Funder's specific intent
Funder seeks advances in a general area of research or
education; or seeks advances in a specific area, but without
prescribing specific strategies or work-plans
Funder seeks implementation of a specific research or education
plan, with well-defined objectives, strategies, work-plans and/or
Value exchanged
Funder essentially receives no personal or institutional value
in return for the funds given, other than intellectual satisfaction
that the activities have been undertaken. No deliverables received
in exchange for contribution
Funder expects and receives implementation of,
and a report of, the University's funded activities; funder's
own mission and/or research agenda is advanced through the
University's funded activities. Deliverables provided
Scope of work
More generally defined; typically no time frame or period of
More specifically defined with a clear period of
Persons performing funded activities
Often left to discretion of University, school, department or
one named individual
Key personnel (or the equivalent project leadership team) are
named in proposal, and changes to key personnel must be
pre-approved by funder
Budget specificity and restrictions
Budgeting is general in nature and terms, and funder
pre-approvals are not required as long as funds are used for the
stated purpose
Budgets are specific, and variances from proposed budgets
(within designated parameters) require funder pre-approval
Progress reports
May be required but are most often general in nature and
Required, and must outline progress toward the specific research
or project plan
Terms of funding
Less detailed
Often detailed, with standard, detailed terms and conditions for
all funding from that sponsor
Accountability for use of funds
More moral than legal
More legal than moral
Ability of funder to recoup funds
Generally very difficult to recoup, except in cases of
deliberate, proven use of restricted funds inconsistent with terms
of a restricted gift
Established ability of funder to terminate the agreement and/or
demand repayment of funds, if specific research or project plans
have not been implemented
Method of documentation
Letter of intent from funder who makes the award
Binding (often signed) agreement between University and funder,
obligating University to implement specific research or project

Visitors to Dubai may be in for a bit of a culture shock. As well as meeting residents from every corner of the earth, you will mingle with traditionally dressed Gulf Arabs in their dishdashas and abayas. There is also the sound of the mosques at prayer time, Arabic chatter in coffee shops, the sweet smell of Arabian shisha (hubbly bubbly pipes), the beautiful intricate writing… it is all part of everyday Dubai culture.
Emirati life is very much geared around families, with marriage and children being the bedrock of society. Hospitality plays a key role in Dubai culture, especially to strangers or newcomers, although older and more traditional Dubai citizens may be more reserved. Do not be surprised if you are invited to join an Emirati family for refreshment, and when carpet or jewellery shopping in particular, your tea will arrive almost before you do. It is polite to accept Dubai tradition like this graciously.
Islam is inextricably intertwined with the very fabric of UAE society. Muslims see the Qur'an literally as the word of God, and it issues very specific moral guidelines, dealing with all issues of daily living. For this reason, the book itself is strongly revered, and must be respectfully treated. Although the most open of Arab societies in its culture, the Muslim tradition in Dubai is no different.
Ramadan, the holy month for Muslims, is marked by prayer, fasting and charity. As an Islamic country, Dubai culture is no different and many restaurants and cafes close during daylight hours. Non-Muslims should not eat, drink or smoke in public, but do so only in private or at specially closed off hotel restaurants.

Jean-Léon Gérôme, 1885
Cast Bronze, 3 15/16 in. diameter
Chaplain won the Prix de Rome for medal-engraving in 1863, and went on to have a highly successful career, including election to the Académie des Beaux-Arts in 1881 and an appointment as Art Director of the Sèvres Porcelain Manufactory in 1896. In 1877 Chaplain became the official medallist of the French government, creating a series of presidential portrait medals. His many animated and realistic medallions of intellectuals and artists, however, constitute his greatest achievement.

Verso: A female personification of painting is seated at an easel, holding a brush to a canvas. She is surrounded by elements that refer to Gérôme's Orientalist subjects, such as the Sphinx at left and the mosque at right, as well as a gladiator helmet referring to his classical paintings. As Gérôme's painting Working in Marble demonstrates, the artist is known to have had such a prop in his studio.

Colorado Senate gives final OK to gun control bills
Two local senators support narrow 18-17 vote
DENVER - A gun control package pushed by Colorado Democrats has cleared the state Senate after two full days of emotional debate.
The Senate gave final approval Monday to five bills restricting gun rights, reacting to mass shootings in a Colorado movie theater and a Connecticut elementary school.
The bills include a 15-round limit on ammunition magazines, expanded background checks, and a ban on gun ownership for people accused of domestic violence crimes. The magazine bill passed just before 5:30 p.m. Monday by a final vote of 18-17.
The package cleared the Senate after Democrats on Friday abandoned two of the most divisive gun controls - a bill to ban concealed-carry guns on college campuses and another to make gun owners and sellers legally liable for the weapons.
Senate President John Morse of Colorado Springs and Sen. Angela Giron of Pueblo, both Democrats, voted for the magazine bill. They reflected on the heated emotions and even threats made during the debate.
"I never felt for my safety," said Giron. "That's why I amended background checks. It was based on emails from people and meeting with constituents."
"I'm not worried about my own political future," said Morse. "I've been threatened with recalls before. If standing up against violence and trying to save lives costs me my political career, that's a very small price to pay."
Morse and Giron didn't seem overly concerned about a possible economic impact from the gun control bills, responding to statements from some business owners who said they'll leave Colorado because of gun control opposition.
Most of the bills must head to the House for further debate and approval.

The Destination
True to its southern heritage, the scenic city of Monticello in Jasper County, Georgia, is a stately slice of Americana both rustic and refined. Breathtaking Greek Revival, Gothic Revival, Italianate, and Queen Anne-style residential and government buildings pepper the city center that's been listed on the National Register of Historic Places, while knotty pines provide a natural gateway into an outdoor paradise ripe for nature-inspired pursuits including canoeing, fishing, hiking, and outdoor grilling.
The Digs
Rugged style outfitted in regal trappings exemplifies the nature of Bennett Cove, a private, tranquil 3,000-square-foot, three-story log estate with bed-and-breakfast service nestled on 35 rolling acres just and hour's drive from downtown Atlanta. Four bedrooms (each with its own private bathroom) dot the upstairs lined by a grand wraparound porch with panoramic views of the six-acre private lake and waterfront gazebo. Spacious living areas boast satellite television and Internet access, while an attentive staff prepares meals with your choice of entrée daily.
"While Atlanta offers bright lights... the regions to the north and southeast are filled with farms, lush forests, sleepy hamlets, and larger towns boasting vibrant arts and cultural scenes. In either direction, there is no shortage of beautiful scenery."-- Fodor's Review of Central and North Georgia

Keeping hens in Mallorca
We have placed our chicken coop and run under our palm tree. Does anyone know if hens will attempt to eat the palm kernels that have fallen from the tree?
Is this going to cause them any problems? We are new to this and are getting our hens tomorrow from the local market.

Oh Kye thank you so much. That information has helped to put my mind at ease. My new chucks have been pecking away on them all afternoon, completely ignoring the corn feed I put in for them!

Re: Keeping hens in Mallorca
They know what are good for them, you must also give them egg shells to force their diet, bake the shells in an oven just quickly, crush them and mix with other foods in a mash or not...they are really important for calcium.

Any left over naturals from the kitchen (veg) can be boiled and mashed, you don't have to spend money on special foods.

Re: Keeping hens in Mallorca
We are about to get some chickens from a friend here in Mallorca. I have built the fenced off area (we cannot have them running wild here - the dogs will get them) and we are currently building the house for them. We are going to have them for eggs and meat hopefully. I'm very excited, I have always wanted hens. I hope yours are doing well under their palm tree. Mine are in an area at the back of the veggie plot.

Re: Keeping hens in Mallorca
'Morning surfingdevil,
We just love our little chucks to bits. They are friendly, fascinating pets and so easy to keep. We got them from the market in Palma last summer and for a while we thought we'd got duds as it took them weeks to start laying. But then, one day, there was a small, brown perfectly formed egg in the nest box!!! Now they each produce a huge brown egg every day (we have three girls - Betty, Dot and Dora). We bought a chicken house on line from Amazon and had it delivered here and built a compound for them. However, the lower garden is such a shambles at the moment that we let them out to free range every day. This is until we get the veg plot sorted out and planted, then we'll have to find a way of keeping them off the new shoots!! We live in the beautiful village of Es Capdella and get our hen food from the pet shop in Calvia. Whereabouts are you? Good luck with everything. Let us know how you get on.
Happyhenlady, Es Capdella.
