Brandon McGee has been dismissed.
Due to Negligence.
ITH is not holding back on the opinions, are they?
My favorite part about these releases are the coded quotes. I could spend at least 1,000 words trying to spell out exactly what Crean is trying to say above, but whats the point? McGee wasnt going to class, or didnt care, or whatever, and now hes gone. We never really had a chance to see if he had any talent last year, so cest la vie, monfrere, as they say in Latin.
Hopefully McGee lands well, and IU can replace those 1.5 points. Should be incredibly difficult.
STARLIGHT, Ind. -- Tom Crean's get-acquainted tour of Hoosier Nation came to the state's southern edge Wednesday. The highlight of the day might have been a trip to the bathroom.
Tom Crean knows wins may be hard to come by on the court, so he's winning over the rabid Indiana fan base now.
Businessman Ned Pfau of Jeffersonville, Ind., has turned the spacious men's room at his office into a replica of the Assembly Hall locker room. Yeah, the men's room. A guy can relieve himself amid lockers, banners, posters and autographed memorabilia of all things Indiana. The only thing missing is Damon Bailey handing out paper towels and mints.
"We had 12 grown men hanging out in a bathroom today," Crean said. "That is not healthy. But that is what it's all about."
That is absolutely what Indiana basketball is all about. Even with the program in the toilet, the passion cannot be flushed from the faithful's system.
And that is why Tom Crean is the brave new coach of the Hoosiers, not the comfortable old coach at Marquette. That is why Crean has signed up for an arduous Operation Tidy Bowl in Bloomington, instead of extending his streak of seven straight seasons of at least 19 wins in Milwaukee. Even as this tottering Indiana team has further crumbled during his seven weeks on the job, you cannot convince Crean that he made a bad decision leaving a winning program of his own making for the land of candy-striped warmups.
He understands that Marquette is a good program currently operating near its peak, while Indiana is a great program operating far below expectations -- and waiting to canonize the guy who can restore it.
He understands that Indiana basketball means so much that someone will turn a bathroom into a shrine. It means so much that one store alone has sold more than 10,000 "Crean & Crimson" T-shirts since April 1. It means so much that 850 fans think late May is the perfect time to drive deep in the Hoosier hills and cough up big fund-raising bucks to hear the new coach spread a little sunshine in Starlight.
Crean talked a lot about tradition and character, and he appealed to the fan base's immense pride. He gave them something to believe in, but no timetable for when the glory days are coming back. He didn't give many specifics about a team that could lose the most games in school history.
The current record is 17, set in 1970. It is in grave jeopardy. The schedule includes the Maui Classic, Kentucky, Wake Forest, Gonzaga in Lucas Oil Stadium and 18 Big Ten games. The roster includes one returning player who scored more than 1.3 points per game, three returners and only eight scholarship players total (at the moment).
Tom Crean should be Big Ten Coach of the Year if he somehow avoids breaking that mark.
"It's not going to be easy next year," the coach told his audience Wednesday evening. "I think most of you know that. It's very, very likely that for the next couple years, we'll be the youngest team in major-college basketball."
It's also very, very likely that once-stable Indiana has had the most turbulent year in major-college basketball. Even Arizona, with its Lute Olson melodrama, hasn't gone through what Indiana has gone through.
A year ago, the Hoosiers were coached by a rather popular Kelvin Sampson, had a flush roster of talent and were lining up recruits from here to eternity. Today, Sampson is long gone after an NCAA investigation, a promising season went up in mutinous smoke and so many players have left that Crean would be hard-pressed to field a quality team in a three-on-three league. And the star recruit Sampson had signed, Devin Ebanks, de-committed and went to West Virginia. Crean was only half joking Wednesday night when he said he'd be watching the Indiana football team this fall with both eyes open -- one eye while rooting for the Hoosiers and the other searching for anyone who can guard a pick-and-roll.
Worst yet for a school with a pristine off-court image has been the flood of reports and innuendo about the program's becoming an academic and character disaster area. In the blink of an eye on Sampson's sketchy watch, IU turned into UNLV Midwest. The new sheriff had to ride in and clean up the town.
"I could not have imagined it," Crean said of the academic wreckage he inherited. " Certain people didn't put working toward a degree and being an Indiana basketball player ahead of other things. Something's got to give, and it's certainly wasn't going to be the standards of the program."
Crean made both a telling gesture and a telling comment Wednesday night when he brought his entire staff, including the academic support group, to Huber Winery in Starlight. When he had the academic people stand up and take a bow, Crean said, "I can't wait to see what they can do when they have the full backing of their head coach."
The former head coach, of course, committed the NCAA rules violations that haven't yet come home to roost -- IU goes in front of the NCAA Committee on Infractions in mid-June. Interim coach Dan Dakich then presided over a virtual work stoppage down the stretch, as a promising season collapsed. Now just about everybody who is somebody from the 2007-08 roster is gone.
D.J. White and four other seniors left, but that was just the start. Eric Gordon turned pro after a year, as expected. Potential returnees Armon Bassett, Jamarcus Ellis, DeAndre Thomas, Eli Holman and Brandon McGee all are gone as well.
Bassett, Ellis, Thomas and McGee were dismissed. Holman chose to leave, after his final meeting with Crean ended with the player throwing a potted plant and campus police being called to the scene.
Crean drew a combination of groans and laughter from his audience Wednesday when, following a standing ovation, he said, "I needed this a couple weeks ago when potted plants were flying around our office."
Throwing plants at Indiana? A former head coach has been alleged to engage in such behavior in the past, but never the players. That was an indication of how far things had slipped, and how fast. The embarrassment factor just kept escalating as Crean asserted control.
The coach is trying to cap off a frenzied spring recruiting season by closing with a late coup: Former Arizona signee Emmanuel Negedu, who opted out of his letter-of-intent, is considering IU, Memphis and Tennessee. Negedu could become even more important if the lone returnee with any offensive ability, Jordan Crawford (9.7 ppg last season), doesn't come back. Crawford went home to Detroit for part of the summer, and Crean could only say "I'm hopeful" that he'll return.
At least Crean has the luxury of slow-cooking Indiana back to promise. He negotiated an eight-year contract ("It didn't start out that way," he said with a smile) that gives him a chance to methodically crawl out of the smoking crater in which he currently resides. The guy would rather milk goats for a living than lose, but he has the contractual latitude to go about this the right way.
With or without Jordan Crawford, the team's top returning scorer and only returning contributor, Indiana is going to have some tough days ahead.
"There is a big difference between quick-fixing and taking your time," he said.
Still, that's always easier said in May than done in February. At a school that is accustomed to success, humility and patience are in small supply. Perhaps that's why a local banker who introduced Crean to the throng said "nobody cares" about the coach's bio.
"We want to know how you're going to win, when you're going to win and who you're going to win with," the banker said.
First he's going to win with his mouth. At the very least, Crean has a very persuasive recruiting pitch to give -- on those rare times he can give it. Thanks to Sampson's shenanigans, Crean is still limited to seven off-campus recruiting days in July and his phone contact with prospects has been curbed as well.
"There's an opportunity like there's never been before at Indiana," Crean said. "And there's probably never going to be another opportunity like this again. The story that's going to be written if we come out of this the right way, you have a chance to play an unbelievable part in it."
He has that recruiting pitch down. And the recruiting pitch to all the former players -- especially the Bob Knight-era players -- who have felt estranged from the program since Knight was fired in 2000. And the pitch to the fans as well.
Crean simply cannot and will not shake enough hands, sign enough things and kiss enough babies over the next year or two. Because the victories will be slow to come on the court, he'd better win the PR campaign first.
That isn't a problem. Crean doesn't just coach a good game, he talks one, too.
"We're going to fight like crazy," he said. "We're going to fight every day, tooth and nail, to not let the outside world come in and take Indiana down."
Indiana has done a staggeringly good job of taking itself down from the inside. Now the job falls to the tireless Tom Crean to make sure the Hoosiers don't slip down the drain for good.

I think that may really be what Damon is doing for a living now.The only thing missing is Damon Bailey handing out paper towels and mints.
Next Reds manager, second shooter. --Confirmed on Redszone.
Old news but interesting nonetheless. From ITH:
One of the more promising developments out of Tom Creans trip to the Louisville/Southern Indiana area today Jordan Crawford is expected to return to Bloomington for his sophomore season.
Rick Bozich of The Louisville Courier-Journal and Chris Korman of the H-T/Hoosier Scoop were both on the scene:
From Bozich:So the plan is for Crawford to return to Bloomington next season as of right now. This is welcome news after the mass exodus this offseason, right? Its looking like the team will be in Bloomington starting on either June 10 or June 11 to begin summer workouts. When Crawford makes it back to Bloomington, Ill be completely sold.
Crean on how good next seasons team will be considering only one recruited scholarship player Jordan Crawford is on the roster: Well be so young, its hard to gauge what kind of team we will be for awhile.
From Korman:
Crean said that there is no change in Jordan Crawfords status. Crawford, who will be the only returning player who came to IU on scholarship, is back in Detroit right now and will not attend summer school. He doesnt need to, and I think its good for him to get home, Crean said. Its important to remember that those guys have been through a whole lot.
Jordan Crawford is transferring.
If Indiana makes it to the NIT next year Tom Crean should be coach of the year.
Total sweep of the program and IMO the best thing that Creen could do. He is setting a tone that none of the nonsense that has been going on in Bloomington the last few years will be tolerated. I know the Hoosiers will be terrible next season but the program is in good hands now and someone who will lead us once again to prominance. Good job Coach Creen we are behind you 100%.
When I see the 2016 Reds, I see a 100 loss team and no direction.
Amen to that, redsfanmia.
the rumors in Kentucky are that Crawford is coming here...no official word, but his brother Joe said that Coach G made him the best player he could be.
1st pick of the 2022 baseball amateur draft
He's not and it isn't.
We don't want to be the fan base that cheers a 17 year olds decision to join IU and demonizes a 19 year old's decision to go to a better fit. We'd hate to be like our neighbors to the west in that regard.
Anyone notice the comparison to what Cincinnati went through two(?) years ago when they canned Huggins? I believe Mick Cronin had one returning player and a pretty tough year in the Big East. They were at least competitive this year and should return to the tourney next year if they continue to progress. Would IU fans be fine with a similar rebuilding process under Tom Crean?

Notre Dame's Te'o Tells Couric He Briefly Lied About GirlfriendErik Matuszewski
University of Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o said in an interview with Katie Couric that he briefly lied to the media after learning he was caught in a hoax involving a fake online girlfriend.
Te'o, 21, had previously told ESPN that he wasn't a part of fabricating the story. In excerpts of the taped interview that aired on ABC's "Good Morning America" show, Te'o said he was fooled into believing his fake girlfriend had died of leukemia in September and didn't lie about the situation until December, when he became aware she didn't actually exist.
"Put yourself in my situation," Te'o said in an excerpt from the interview with Couric today. "My whole world told me that she died on Sept. 12. Everybody knew that. This girl, who I committed myself to, died Sept. 12."
Te'o said he received a phone call on Dec. 6 from a woman claiming to be his girlfriend, Lennay Kekua, even though she had supposedly died three months earlier. Two days later, Te'o finished second to Texas A&M University quarterback Johnny Manziel in voting for the Heisman Trophy, presented annually to college football's best player.
"Now I get a phone call on Dec. 6, saying she's alive and then I'm going to be put on national TV two days later," he said. "And to ask me about the same question. You know, what would you do?"
School Support
Notre Dame, which lost to the University of Alabama in college football's championship game this month, said on Jan. 16 that Te'o had been the victim of a hoax in which someone purporting to be Kekua ingratiated themself with him and then conspired with others to lead him to believe she died. Te'o said in a statement at the time that he was the victim of "someone's sick joke" and last week told ESPN in an off-camera interview that he wasn't involved in the hoax to bolster his image and candidacy for postseason awards.
Te'o also told ESPN that he received a Twitter message from a former friend, Ronaiah Tuiasosopo, who apologized for orchestrating the hoax.
ABC and ESPN both are units of the Walt Disney Co. Couric and Te'o share a public relations representative, Matthew Hiltzik.
Te'o received the Nagurski Award as college football's best defensive player and the Butkus Award as the nation's top linebacker last season. Having graduated, he's preparing for the National Football League draft.
Te'o was joined by his parents, Brian and Ottilia, for the taped interview, which will air on the syndicated daytime talk show "Katie" tomorrow.
"People can speculate about what they think he is," Brian Te'o told Couric as he wiped away tears. "I've known him 21 years of his life. He's not a liar. He's a kid."

A closer look at the famous Royal Armouries logo
Graeme Rimer
Friday 23 July & Friday 13 August
Early in his reign King Henry VIII was presented with a number of armours by the Emperor Maximilian I. Among these was a fabulous suit of armour for Henry to wear in parades.
The helmet had a visor in the form of a grotesque human face and later, ram's horns were added to it. Although the suit of armour was most likely sold as scrap metal, the extraordinary helmet survives today as an object of curiosity, and is now one of the most iconic pieces in our collections.
The helmet has been the subject of much debate over the years and this lecture sheds new light onto perhaps the most controversial piece of armour in England.
Tickets can be purchased on the day or booked in advance
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Tel: 0113 220 1866
Tickets: £3.50 per person
Time: 1.00pm – 1.45pm
Graeme Rimer is Academic Director of the Royal Armouries. He is the author of numerous books and articles on arms and armour related topics and has appeared in a number of factual film projects, including two History Channel USA television series entitled Arms in Action. He is also editor of the Royal Armouries own bi-annual journal, Arms & Armour.

I just received a call from a lady about 10 miles from me who was wondering if I could come down and get rid of the "bees" in her birdhouses. She has a paper wasp nest of some sort in one box but in the other birdhouse she says she has bumblebees. She says you can see "comb" inside but it is different than honeycomb. She says she knows the difference and they are definitely some sort of bumblebee, larger and furrier than honeybees. Anyone have any idea what they might be?
Both birdhouses can just be unhooked and moved. Can I just pick up the bumblebee nest and bring it to my home? Will they reorient? How about the wasp nest, can it just be moved to a better location in her yard? (It is right by her back door.) Neither has been aggressive at all and she doesn't want to harm them, partly because "bees are getting rare, I seen it on TV".

Excerpt: "Former Cowboys quarterback Troy Aikman says he doesn't think Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett is having much say in the changes that are occurring to his coaching staff. The Hall of Famer is also unsure if those changes are going to make much of a difference.
Aikman discussed how Garrett is dealing with those moves Thursday during an interview with The Musers on 1310 The Ticket [KTCK-AM]. The FOX NFL analyst said Garrett is simply handling the situation the way team owner and general manager Jerry Jones is telling him it should be handled.
"That's essentially what happened, or at least that's the way it looks," Aikman said. "Jerry comes out and says there are going to be a lot of changes this off-season and everyone's going to be uncomfortable, I didn't hear a comment from Jason Garrett with regards to that. I didn't hear him say that during his post-game press conference or postseason press conference.
"So yeah, it's got the look and feel as though Jerry's making these decisions and I don't know that that's necessarily good. When you're making staff changes and whether Jason's on board with that or not on board with that I really have no idea. I think the difficult things is that this was a team the last two years that played in the last game of the season and went into Week 17 with a chance to win a division. If they win the last game of the year, they win the division. I just wonder if they had won one or both of those games if we would be looking at this team differently. And I think that we would, even if they didn't win in the postseason." Read more...

Back after losing time to a lightning fried computer.
Test in 3.5" plastic using a few accutip 12ga sabots out of factory loads.
The 12ga accutip sabot, hard cast 440gr 58cal minie slug in
36" rifled NEF at 2200, and it went through 12 inches of wood like
butter. The hole out showed it was starting to expand a little.
Test of softer lead 500gr 58cal Minie with deeper hollowbase in accutip
in smooth cylinder bore barrel at 2000, and 3 shots in 3" at 30 yds.
This was a Lyman 575213 new style minie slug
More experimenting can make these work fair in smooth barrels.
For best accuracy use a blunt nose heavier 58cal 600gr slug with
deepest hollow in the base. The blunt nose would be more front end
heavy and a little more accurate from smooth bore..
Lee and Lyman have molds like that.Others selling slugs also.
I mentioned before about seals/wads must be stable and not crush
down off center, or it might affect accuracy. Here is picture of
the one piece seal and wad Federal uses in their sabot loads.
Notice it doesn't have a lot of space in the cushion part that would
allow it to tip or go off center.
Here is picture of some 10ga work using expanded 69cal minie and
700cal bullets in 10ga wadcup. 69cal hollowbase fairly accurate to
50yds in heavy barrel smoothbore.
Here is picture of the Savage 110 done in my 585HE. Hollow butt of the
stock is weighted, gun handles nice.Ed

Warm up cold bathroom floors with electric in-floor heating mats installed under the tile. Use it as supplemental heat for comfort or as space heat to warm the entire bathroom – installation is as easy as laying tile.
This in-the-floor heating system consists of one thin continuous cable heating element woven into a mat that you install under the tile. This makes it a project best done when overhauling or changing the floor covering of an existing room or when adding a new room. It can be installed as supplemental heat to take the chill out of the floor or as space heat to warm the entire bathroom. It's also a great project for warming entryway and kitchen floors.
The downside? It can't be retrofitted under existing tile floors, the total initial cost of materials is high, and you'll most likely need to run new wiring from the main circuit panel to the bathroom.
For a heated floor area less than 20 sq. ft., you could (in most cases) draw power from an adjacent GFCI-protected outlet without overloading the circuit. (If the thermostat you purchase is already GFCI protected like ours, you can use any outlet. In any case, the mat must be GFCI protected.) But a larger mat on an existing circuit— a circuit that might also accommodate a 2,000- watt hair dryer—can cause overloads and nuisance circuit breaker trips. For our larger mat, we elected to install a dedicated circuit with its own wiring and circuit breaker. Both 120-volt and 240-volt mats are available.
A programmable thermostat that turns the mat on during busy times, then off when you're sleeping or away, costs more initially but will save energy and money in the long run.
Test the heating cable for manufacturing or shipping damage with a volt-ohm meter. The resistance reading on the mat label and the resistance registered by the meter should be within 10 percent of each other. If not, see the manufacturer's instructions. Digital volt-ohm meters like the one shown are inexpensive and are easy to operate.
Install cement board over the existing subfloor. Trowel on a layer of thin-set mortar, then secure the cement board with cement board screws. Cover the seams with mesh fiberglass tape and thin-set to create a "unibody" floor. Snap chalk lines on the floor to mark the tile layout.
A number of companies offer electric resistance floor warming systems. Standard sizes are available at home centers and tile stores. You can also special order custom sizes and shapes by sending a detailed drawing of the bathroom floor plan and location of fixtures. The mats come in 12-, 24- and 30- in. widths and increments of 5 ft. in length (10 sq. ft. minimum). When in doubt, the supplier will specify a mat smaller than you need since the mat cable can't be cut.
Before installing the mat, use a volt-ohm meter (Photo 1) to obtain a resistance reading to make sure it wasn't damaged during manufacturing or shipping. Prep your floor as you would for any tiling job. Install 1/2-in. cement backer board, securing it to the existing subfloor with mortar and cement board screws (Photo 2). Make sure no screw- or nailheads protrude above the cement board. A sharp edge can damage the cable. Tape and mortar the seams to create a solid, continuous surface. Snap tile layout lines on the floor once the mortar has dried.
Test-fit the mat, keeping the cable 4 in. from fixtures and walls and 2 in. from one another. Give priority to those areas where you'll stand barefooted the most. You must not cut or cross the cable, so make sure the mat fits.
Chisel a groove in the cement board for the enlarged portion of the power lead to nestle into. Notch the bottom plate of the wall to provide a pathway for the power lead, thermostat wires and conduit.
Before proceeding with the actual installation, do a test layout (Photo 3). Follow these basic guidelines:
Following your preliminary layout, mark the path of the thick "power lead" between the mat and wall cavity (Photo 4) and chisel a shallow trench into the floor. Notch the bottom plate to accommodate the two conduits that will contain the power lead and the wires for the thermostat-sensing bulb.
Install the mat, securing it lightly to the floor with double-face tape. Cut the mat (never the cable), then reverse direction at walls.
Secure individual removed cables to the floor using small blobs of hot-melt glue. Carefully cut and remove the orange mesh to free the cable. Do this to work around angles, obstacles and sections where full-width mats won't fit. Do not overlap the cable. When the entire mat is fitted and installed, press it firmly into the tape and hot-melt glue any loose ends or humps in the mat. Perform a resistance test (shown in Photo 1) to check for damage.
Install the mat, securing it lightly to the cement board with double-face tape (Photo 5). To make turns, cut the mat between two loops in the cable, then flip the mat and run it the opposite direction. Never, ever cut, nick or stress the cable itself. Where the full-width mat won't fit, or where you encounter angles or jogs, carefully cut the mat from around the cable, and hot-melt glue the cable to the floor (Photo 6). Continue using the full mat again when you can.
Install the entire mat complete with cuts, flips and turns to make sure it fits the space right, make any final adjustments, then press the mat firmly into the tape. Use hot-melt glue to additionally secure the mat. Don't leave any humps or loose edges; you'll snag them with your notched trowel when you're applying the thin-set mortar.
If you're not going to tile right away, lay thick corrugated cardboard over the mat to protect the cable. You'll be glad you did when your kid walks in wearing baseball cleats.
Fish the power lead and thermostat wires through two 58-in. lengths of conduit and connect the tops of the conduit to a 4 x 4-in. electrical box. Position the lower end of the conduits in the notches and secure the electrical box to the studs. Weave the thermostat wire through the mesh so the sensing bulb is an equal distance between wires and 12 in. into the warming area. Use hot-melt glue to secure the thermostat wires to the floor and the power lead in the groove. Cover the notches in the bottom plate with protective metal plates. Do another resistance test.
Install conduit connectors to both ends of two pieces of 58-in. long 1/2-in. electrical metal tubing (EMT). Fish the power lead cable through one length of conduit. Hot-melt glue the power lead into the groove. Fish the thermostat wires through a second piece of conduit, then weave it 12 in. into the mat, keeping it equidistant from the cable on each side (Photo 7).
Secure the two lengths of conduit to a 4 x 4-in. metal electrical box. Secure this box to the studs so the lower ends of the conduits nestle into the notches you made in the bottom plate (Photo 7). Secure metal protective plates over the notches in the bottom plate to protect the wires and cable where they pass through.
Install the wiring from the area of the main circuit breaker panel (or nearby outlet) to the area of the wall cavity where the thermostat will be located. Don't do any actual wiring in the main panel yet.
Apply the mortar, first pressing it firmly into the mesh and floor with the flat side of the trowel, then combing it with the notched side. Try to "float" the trowel just above the cable. Use care not to snag the mesh or nick the cable.
Lay the tile using the chalked lines as your guide. Wiggle and tap the tiles firmly into place to create a level surface. Readjust previously laid tiles so they remain in line and properly spaced; the thick mortar bed used to cover the cable and mesh allows for more movement than a standard tile installation. Grout the tile once the thin-set has properly set.
Select tile that's at least 6 in. square so each tile will span two or more sections of cable. Smaller tiles are more likely to conform to the minor hills and valleys of the cable when you tamp them in place, creating a wavy surface.
Spread the mortar over a 5- to 10-sq.-ft. area of floor. Use the flat side of the trowel to press the mortar firmly through the mat and into contact with the cement board. You can establish a flat, uniform layer by lightly floating the trowel across the tops of the cable. Then use the notched side to comb the mortar to create ridges (Photo 8); a 3/8 x 1/4-in. trowel works well for most tiles. Again, lightly skim your trowel over the cable. The sheathing on the cable is tough, but you still need to avoid any "sawing" type action or jabs with the trowel. It takes a little trial and error to get a flat layer. The No. 1 goof that people make is slamming the edge of their trowel on the floor to knock excess thin-set loose—cutting or nicking the cable.
Place the tile, then tap it firmly into place with a rubber mallet. Do two resistance tests (Photo 1) while installing the tile to ensure you haven't damaged the cable. (If the resistance test fails, see the manufacturer's instructions to find the problem.) Once the mortar has dried, grout the joints.
Wire the thermostat according to the manufacturer's instructions. Our thermostat had individual pigtails for securing the wires from the power lead and the cable running from the main panel. Have your electrician make the final connections in the main circuit panel. Power up the system for 10 or 15 minutes to ensure that the floor heat functions, then turn it off and keep it off for two to four weeks while the mastic and grout cure and harden.
The instructions that came with the mat and thermostat were so darn good we felt comfortable completing the wiring of the thermostat and mat. We left installing the new circuit breaker and final connections in the main circuit panel to a local electrician. We suggest you do the same. Once the wiring is complete, energize the system for a few minutes to make certain the controls work and resistance cable heats. Don't put the system into full operation until the thin-set and grout have had time to properly cure and harden—usually two to four weeks. Then call the family together and play a game of Scrabble on your cozy, warm bathroom floor.
Have the necessary tools for this DIY project lined up before you start—you'll save time and frustration.

Newbie and a question for experienced cooks :)
Hi everyone.
Just thought I'd show my face. I look forward to getting to know as many of you as possible. Now, being 24, I'm a young and adventurous cook, but being a student am definitely strapped for cash. I am looking to start my collection of pots and pans and am looking for any advice anyone can give me on necessities. So far, I haven't tried cooking a lot of things, one thing I do know is that I love cooking casseroles, so a nice casserole dish is a must for me. Any reccommendations? I quite like the look of the casserole/saucepan things, the pans that are deeper than frying pans but not as deep as a large casserole dish.
Any advice on places to buy, types of things essential for a new cook would be great.
Lastly, I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and good luck with the turkeys!
#2 Sun 23 Dec 12 7:10pm
Re: Newbie and a question for experienced cooks :)
Shop discount stores. They can have good quality items for cheaper prices. Only buy what you need and don't be "dazzled" by specialty pieces. I've cooked for years and still have a small collection of pots and pans. Quality over quantity. Multi-use items are a must.
#3 Sun 23 Dec 12 7:20pm
Re: Newbie and a question for experienced cooks :)
I think that will be my problem lol. Is there anything type of thing you'd recommend? I've seen copper pans and those with copper bottoms. I really don't mind paying more for something that will last. I also have a hallogen cooker.
Thanks for any advice. And Merry Christmas!

I don't have any copper, and I can't say they are good or not. I have Calphalon. It's anodized aluminum.

Re: Newbie and a question for experienced cooks :)
Welcome to the forum hollyanne200
Do you live in the UK ?
Keep an eye on stores like TKMax and Homesense ( sister store to TKMax but just things for home and no clothes ) .they have decent quality of pans at a reasonable price .
Look for pans with a heavier base and read on the lable what sort or power they are recommended for .
With nonstick .. It's useful to have a small non stick sauce pan for scrambled egg is a good idea .
A non stick heavyish base fry pan is also worth buying . Avoid cheap frying pans they are just false economy.
Don't use metal utensils with non- stick cookware .
Unless you are desperate for things to match , them just buy what you see as you can afford it.
If your in a shared student house then bear in mind flat mates don't always look after things as you would .
My pans are mostly stainless steel , they have a thick base and have given me many years of service , cooking daily for a family and lately just for myself and my darling ( apart from when all the family retern!)

I wonder if TKMax and Homsense are in the same family as our TJMax and HomeGoods stores. I shop those a lot. Same thing..TJMax is clothes, shoes, home goods etc and HomeGoods is just household items...

Hollyanne200, hi and welcome. Have you thought of a wok? They're used for stir frys, which are ideal for students because they're quick and loose less heat. The list of stir frys you could do is endless.

Re: Newbie and a question for experienced cooks :)
Hallogen cooker sounds interesting. If that is the only heat source you may want to check the manufacturers site for cooking vessel compatibility.
When I think casserole I always picture a dutch oven filled with something yummy.
When I think cast iron dutch oven Le Creuset is the first thing that comes to mind.
http://cookware.lecreuset.com/cookware/ … ;langId=-1
BUT! You don't need to shell out that much cash. If coated cast iron is dropped it will most likely be tragic! Uncoated (not enameled) cast iron however is gold. Properly seasoned it's as non stick as non stick can be. And it's cheap....er.

Re: Newbie and a question for experienced cooks :)
I have a halogen hob as well, my advice would be good quality stainless steel pans, minimum 4mm encapsulated base, preferably 6mm, also make sure the handles are hollow and ventilated... These can go straight from the Hob to the oven when required.
As above keep your eye out in TK Maxx or the equivalent as there are bargains to be had..
Oh and don't be tempted to go for glass lids, unless you like a set of saucepans that you only have broken lids for...

I've never longed for the days when my kids were babies. I'm not really a baby person. I gladly threw out their bottles, pinkies, and cribs. Same thing went for the toddler stage--good bye sippy cups, high chairs, and strollers. Recently I started telling them to stop growing so fast because it's what my mom told me and it's what I hear people say to their kids. I've told my kids a million times to stop eating their veggies because they grew too tall over night.
But the truth is, I can't wait for them to grow up! Each stage bring more independence, more self awareness, and way less tears and tantrums. I'm looking forward to my boys turning 5 years old next month. I can't wait to see what this year brings us. If it's more dancing like this, I think it's going to be a good one. Maybe even a year I'll long for!

I inspected one of my Langstroth hives yesterday for the first time this year and discovered it was empty of brood. I reversed the deep brood boxes on it about 3 weeks ago, but was unable to do a full inspection at the time. I think I either killed or severely injured the queen at that time and a laying worker has been pulling off a good con job ever since. Prior to that, the hive seemed to be doing well. A couple days afterwards I noticed not as many bees coming and going compared to my other 3 hives, which are exploding with bees. Here's what I found during the inspection yesterday:
- No worker brood of any kind. No 1-3 day old eggs. No capped brood. Nothing.
- 12 or so open drone cells about to be capped.
- 10 or 20 cells of old capped drone brood.
- Plenty of honey along the sides.
- A whole lot of clean empty cells, some being filled with nectar and pollen.
- No queen that I could find.
- No supercedure cells. No swarm cells. No queen cups.
- Calm bees (a half decent population too).
Here's a post I wrote about it, including a short video:
I have 3 other hives that are exploding with bees. I plan to steal some 1 or 2 day old open brood from one of the those hives and install it in the broodless hive today. If the bees start building queen cells, then they are indeed queenless, correct?
I can't get a replacement queen around here for a couple weeks at the earliest. (I'm on the island on Newfoundland. We have a 2 or 3 month delayed season for everything.)
If it turns out the hive is queenless, I'd rather not wait for the bees to raise a new queen. That's too much lost time for our very short summers. I'd rather not have the hive sit around queenless for a couple weeks either while I wait for a replacement queen. So how does this sound as a plan of action?
- Combine (following the newspaper method) each of the deep brood boxes with two of our booming hives.
- Let the queens in the booming hives fill up the empty frames.
- Make splits from the booming hives in a two or three weeks when I can get some replacement queens.
I'm not too concerned at the moment. The bees have plenty of honey and pollen to keep them going for a while, they're still bringing in plenty of pollen and nectar, and they seem healthy and vigorous (though oddly calm). But whatever I do, I'll probably have to do it soon.
EDIT: The title should read HIVE, singular, not HIVES.

OWNER: City of Cape Coral, Fla., Public Works Department
PROJECT: Widening two arterial roads; 10 miles total
WHEN: April 2006 – July 2011
CONTRACTOR: Balfour Beatty Construction
CONTRACT: 5 years; $50 million
Five years ago, the Florida city of Cape Coral tried a new procurement strategy for a project to expand two arterial roads from four to six lanes. Traffic on those roads now flows smoothly, as did the Public Works Department's first experience with construction-manager-at-risk (CM@R).
With CM@R, a third party provides consultation to the owner regarding construction from design through completion. The department selected the Cape Coral office of Balfour Beatty Construction as construction manager and general contractor, which made the company responsible for hiring and managing subcontractors as well as coordinating the construction schedule.
This is not a typical delivery method for paving projects. According to the Associated General Contractors of America, it's still illegal for "horizontal" projects in 16 states. But that may be changing. In 2010, the Transportation Research Board published Construction Manager at Risk: Project Delivery for Highway Programs, a report on how public agencies are using CM@R.
City Design and Construction Manager Stephanie Smith, PE, served as project manager and mediator with utilities, residents, and local businesses. Although the partnership relieved her of resolving "an amazing number of details on a day-to-day basis," the project still consumed roughly half her time.
"If we'd undertaken it ourselves, the entire staff would have been involved," says Smith. CM@R allowed the Transportation Division to undertake the multiyear project without adding – and then laying off – extra staff.
The collaboration also kept surprises to a minimum. "The transparency of the process kept the city apprised of the costs of the work," says Balfour Beatty Project Manager Laurie Lagos. "Because we reviewed bids and contractor qualifications before entering into contracts, we could ensure the right partners were selected for the work."
Being involved in the early design phases allowed the company to offer ideas from similar projects to save time and money and minimize inconvenience. One was using a Texas DOT bridge design that met Florida's crash criteria, with cast-in-place walls that complement local architecture and ornate aluminum railings that fulfill bicycle rail requirements.
Construction on one of the roads involved acquiring more than 200 right-of-way parcels, which required coordinating with three utilities, the Public Works Real Estate Division, the City Attorney, and outside legal counsel. To expedite construction, the team began building the bridge while they finalized traffic management solutions for the roadways.
The guaranteed maximum price (GMP) arrangement included a contingency budget that provides the flexibility to adjust to job conditions without changing project costs. At one point, it became clear that one section would need more extensive repairs than originally planned. Smith reallocated unused contingency funds so the repairs could be made without extra startup or mobilization costs – a seamless change.
"The city was very well served by this method," says Smith, citing every project manager's dream: a project that was finished on schedule and under budget.

THE GREAT EQUATIONS: Breakthroughs in Science from Pythagoras to Heisenberg. Robert P. Crease. 315 pp. W. W. Norton and Company, 2008. $25.95.
The growing stream of popular books on science is fundamentally an encouraging development: More and more people want to learn about science. As these books proliferate, they also raise interesting questions about how best to address and meet this large audience. We now have several books that enumerate and describe the greatest experiments or equations, so new books in this field rightly need to add something, not repeat the same stories ad infinitum. Robert P. Crease, who is chair of the Philosophy Department at Stony Brook University as well as a historian at the Brookhaven National Laboratory and who writes a regular column for Physics World, has already written five well-regarded books about physics and physicists. In his new book, The Great Equations, Crease makes excellent use of his philosophical background and his long-standing interest in the history of science.
Not surprisingly, each of the equations he discusses is a deservedly famous and long-established classic: the Pythagorean theorem; Isaac Newton's second law of motion and his equation of universal gravitation; Leonhard Euler's famous equation relating e, i, π, 1, and 0; the second law of thermodynamics; James Clerk Maxwell's equations; Albert Einstein's E=mc2 and his field equations for general relativity; Erwin Schrödinger's wave equation; and Werner Heisenberg's uncertainty relation (which is an inequality, Crease notes, not strictly an equation). Crease provides a succinct and well-crafted account of the history of each of these celebrated equations. He often draws attention to their collective authorship rather than treating them as the sudden or purely idiosyncratic inspiration of a single individual, as admiring myths would have it. Crease emphasizes the slow development of these ideas and the historic matrix within which the equations emerged, often through paradox and perplexity. Thus, in his treatment, the seminal equations are not mysterious hieroglyphs but summations and distillations of whole trains of thought that the reader is invited to follow and understand.
Crease's writing is intelligent and engaging throughout; although he presents the arguments in a nontechnical way, he does not dumb things down. His explanations have great conceptual clarity and are highly accurate. Only a few passages are problematic.
In the chapter on E=mc2, readers might be misled by this statement: "Light acts more like sound. Sound always travels at the same speed (about 1,100 feet a second in air), regardless of how fast its source travels." Although the speed of sound depends only on properties of the medium, in important ways light does not act like sound. The passage of sound does depend on the velocity of the source with respect to the medium, but the passage of light depends only on the relative speed of observer and source: Unlike sound, light can travel in a vacuum without a medium. Thus, the Doppler shift observed using light differs from the Doppler shift of sound.
At the beginning of his 1905 relativity paper, Einstein mentions "asymmetries" that seem to emerge from Maxwell's electrodynamics "as usually understood at present." Crease interprets "asymmetries" as "eccentric results." A reader might well be puzzled by what was "eccentric" about them or why (as Crease puts it) they "seem to be an artifact of our theories rather than a part of the world." It would have helped to explain (if only in the notes) that Einstein was using the term asymmetries to refer to the results of simple thought experiments suggested by Maxwell's equations—experiments in which, for example, a magnet in motion near a stationary coil of wire seems to produce different results than does a coil in motion near a stationary magnet. According to the principle of relativity, both these cases should produce the same observable result; thus such a disagreement would signal an "asymmetry."
For the benefit of readers uneasy with equations, the book could have addressed further the historical emergence of equations as conceptual tools. Crease is right to emphasize the wonder implicit in "1+1=2." As Socrates long ago asked, why exactly is this true? How does two ever come from one? Algebraic equations, with all their mysterious symbols, are even more perplexing. Crease touches on the role of René Descartes in the story of equations, but I wish he had also included the 16th-century French attorney, code breaker and mathematician François Viète, who introduced alphabetic symbols for the unknowns and coefficients of equations. Knowing something more of this history, readers might be reassured to realize that any perplexities they have reflect the inherent difficulty of the whole concept of equations, which required radical conceptual innovations that still challenge the mind.
These cavils notwithstanding, Crease has made sound choices among a rich array of possibilities; not everything can be covered in a short book. And his exposition has many really felicitous passages. For instance, he emphasizes the related concepts of invariance and covariance. Something can "look different from different perspectives," he notes. "Yet all the time I am seeing the same object. Invariance therefore involves understanding unity as it shows itself in changing appearances." As Crease explains it, covariance is "simply part of what we mean by objectivity." Here Crease's philosophic awareness helps the reader overcome the common misapprehension that relativity theory means that "everything is relative."
Crease's historical understanding is no less sensitive and well-informed. He rightly presents the origins of quantum theory in the context of thermodynamics and statistical physics, avoiding the widely repeated (but historically unfounded) claim that the introduction of the quantum came in direct response to a hypothetical "ultraviolet catastrophe," a contradiction between classical mechanics and electrodynamics presumed to have been known to Max Planck and Einstein during the period from 1900 to 1905. As Martin Klein pointed out, this "catastrophe" was only mentioned in the literature after 1911. Crease is also careful to avoid overstating the importance of the Michelson-Morley experiment for Einstein. As Gerald Holton noted, Einstein always denied that he had relied on that experiment as he formulated special relativity theory; rather, it was the conceptual "asymmetries" mentioned earlier that really set him thinking.
Too many writers of popular books on science succumb to the temptation to resort to startling or outré analogies, such as the wild mystical comparisons that mar some accounts of quantum theory. I admire Crease's deft and ingenious comparisons, which are fresh and striking, not forced or bizarre. Thus, he compares "the 'intermediate kind of reality' that Heisenberg said was the price one had to pay to have quantum phenomena" with
the funny kind of incomplete, semiabstract reality that scripts or scores have—they are programs, as it were, for real things in the world (the produced play, the performed music) that require adding a context, and decisions about that context affect the whole of the abstract object. It brings back the role of human purposes and decisions that Newton left out.
Or again, describing the difference between crank theories and the (sometimes even more conceptually bizarre) genuine article, Crease draws attention to the way cranks tend to use "either no equations or a small number treated like fetish objects." Also, the equations appear unaccompanied, he says, rather than being embedded in extensive arguments. In crank outpourings, "the role of the equation in the paper is like that of a musical instrument that someone carries around without ever playing."
These examples give something of the flavor of this admirable book. Crease's insightful and clear exposition, memorable comparisons and fine writing, and above all his philosophic thoughtfulness, make The Great Equations both richly instructive and delightful.

New York Woman Convicted of Student Loan Fraud
MARY JO WHITE, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, announced that GAIL ROBERSON was sentenced yesterday in White Plains federal court to 18 months in prison for her role in a scheme to defraud the United States Department of Education and certain financial institutions in connection with applications for college student aid. ROBERSON pled guilty to a one-count mail fraud Indictment on November 17, 1998.
According to the Indictment and a Complaint previously filed in the case, ROBERSON submitted four federal student loan applications between September 1997 and February 1998, using her own name and the names of certain relatives. The student aid applications, which sought a total of $69,000, were bogus in that they falsely represented that the person named on the application intended to attend medical school at the American University of the Caribbean ("AUC"), in St. Maarten, whereas, in fact, neither ROBERSON nor the persons listed on the application intended to do so. In addition, the applications submitted by ROBERSON contained forged certifications from officials of AUC indicating that the persons listed on the applications were attending AUC, whereas, in fact, none of the persons listed ever attended AUC. As a result of. the scheme, ROBERSON fraudulently obtained approximately $18,500.
Court records also indicated that after being charged in the case and released on bond, ROBERSON tried to get the charges against her dismissed and her bail restrictions lessened by presenting to the Court and the United States Attorneys Office medical records that falsely indicated she was suffering from a brain tumor when, in fact, she was not.
In addition to the 18-month sentence, which was ordered to run consecutive to a current two-to-four year state sentence for credit card fraud, United States District Judge CHARLES L. BRIEANT sentenced ROBERSON to three years of supervised release and restitution in the amount of $18,500.
ROBERSON is a resident of Poughkeepsie, New York.
Ms. WHITE praised the United States Department of Education for its efforts in this investigation.Assistant United States Attorney STANLEY J. OKULA, JR. is in charge of the prosecution.

GTAGaming.com - General News | @ 10:20 PM MDT | By rappo
Who today will fight for anti-video game justice in Florida? Not former attorney Jack Thompson, that's for sure. After a lengthy journey through the court systems, Jack Thompson has "[been] permanently disbarred without leave to apply for readmission to The Florida Bar." Basically, this means he is no longer able to practice law in the state of Florida.
If you're into legal mumbo-jumbo, you can check out the full full court documents at Joystiq.

Groton — Geoffrey Jones, who is fighting Democratic state Rep. Elissa Wright in court over a deteriorating family home in Essex, said Tuesday he will seek the Republican nomination to run against her for the 41st House District seat.
Jones, 51, captain of the schooner Mystic of Stonington, said he's long considered public office but has never run before. He said he decided to run partly after his dispute with Wright, 68, who is in her fourth term in the General Assembly. The house is prominently situated in the village of Essex and has peeling paint, rotting wood and a sagging roof.
"If she can't look after her own property and her own family business, how can she possibly look after the public good?" Jones said.
Wright, reached by email, declined to comment. "I have no comment at this time, until the session is over," she wrote.
Wright inherited a house at 2 Prospect St. in Essex along with her sister when their mother died about five years ago. Jones was given one-half interest in the house by his stepmother, who is Wright's sister. In February, he filed suit in New London Superior Court seeking court-ordered sale of the property, according to court documents.
Wright, a lawyer, disputes that he has ownership rights and said the transfer was "fraudulent" and Jones accepted it "maliciously," court papers said.
Now their dispute has entered the political realm.
Wright also faces a third challenger in Aundré Bumgardner, a 19-year-old Republican from Groton who announced in March he wants the Republican nomination. Bumgardner started in politics by volunteering for former U.S. Rep. Rob Simmons in 2010, worked as an intern during Tom Foley's campaign for governor and later became field director for Paul Formica's 2012 congressional bid.
Bumgardner has said he's running because he believes the state's future depends on revitalizing cities. He said towns also need more independence and policies should support more job creation.
Bumgardner said Jones may be community-minded, but he's also involved in a fight over a blighted house and has a fractured relationship with Wright.
"We're almost getting into a Hatfield-McCoy situation, and I don't think the voters deserve that," Bumgardner said. He said he expects to win the nomination but would primary if he lost.
The Republican Convention for the 41st District will be held at 7 p.m. May 14 at the City of Groton Municipal Building.
Depending on who wins the nomination, the other candidate could drop out, run as a third-party candidate or force a Republican primary.
Jones said he hasn't decided what he would do. But he said he believes Wright is vulnerable. "There's no point in putting a lot of effort into a campaign you can't win," he said.
Jones attended Groton Public Schools, graduated from the Massachusetts Maritime Academy and worked as a mariner and sea captain, working for 20 different companies and traveling around the world.
In 1989, he bought an old fishing boat that had been converted to a passenger boat and led it from West Mystic to points north and south, until 1998. He then sold the boat and now serves as captain of The Mystic, a ship that's for sale and owned by a nonprofit entity. Jones ran The Mystic last year but is no longer running it.
Jones and his father also co-own commercial property in downtown Mystic, a boat yard on the Groton side of Mystic and the building that houses Noank Community Market.
He believes government has become disconnected from regular people, and he can improve this.
"One, I'm from here," Jones said. "I went through the school system, I even taught in it, I've run businesses here since the late '80s so I understand economics, and I've traveled a good amount. So I've seen how other towns do things."
Wright serves as assistant majority leader and a member of the Judiciary Committee and the Finance, Revenue and Bonding Committee.
In Groton, she previously served on the Town Council, Board of Education, and Representative Town Meeting.

Terence Sejnowski
Neuroscience expert to speak May 4 at UTSA
By Kris Rodriguez
Public Affairs Specialist
(May 1, 2006)--A pioneer in the field of computational neuroscience will speak at a May 4 seminar hosted by UTSA and the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UTHSC).
Terence Sejnowski will present a lecture, "Think Globally, Act Locally," at 4 p.m., Thursday, May 4 in Main Building Room 0.106 on the UTSA 1604 Campus. The seminar is free and open to the public.
Today's headlines
- La Prensa Foundation is newest member of UTSA Lone Star Society
- UTSA alumna Jordan Kaufmann wins $50K for new stent-graft start-up
- UTSA begins new way-finding sign installation this summer at Main Campus
- USA Today: UTSA long jumper Tyler Williamson rescues three-year-old boy
Article tools
A professor of neuroscience, Sejnowski heads the Computational Neurobiology Laboratory at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in San Diego. His research focuses on the hippocampus, which is believed to play a major role in learning and memory, and the cerebral cortex, which holds our knowledge of the world and how to interact with it.
The seminar is the second for the new San Antonio Neuroscience Alliance (SANA), offering a collaborative interdisciplinary neuroscience initiative for doctoral students studying in neuroscience or related fields.
SANA is expected to enhance the value of the doctoral education experience by providing complementary neuroscience-related courses at both institutions to support faculty serving as co-mentors to increase student participation. Currently, UTSA and UTHSC have approximately 70 students enrolled in the combined doctoral neuroscience research programs.
Additionally, the program will provide stipends on a competitive basis for doctoral students, sponsor monthly research colloquiums and support a distinguished speaker series. Interaction between the two campuses also will be fostered by a May 10 retreat where neuroscience doctoral students can meet, present research and attend a seminar with a guest speaker.
For more information, contact David Jaffe at (210) 458-5843 or Randolph Glickman at (210) 567-8420.

A well respected beekeeper is advising working bees at night. How many of you experienced beekeepers agree with this ?
A well respected beekeeper is advising working bees at night. How many of you experienced beekeepers agree with this ?
I move them at night(got a load sitting in the driveway right now)but I REALLY REALLY hate to open a strong hive on a warm night.They crawl ,they burrow,they find every tiny opening,then let you have it.I know that YOU know that od!But sometimes I will put sticky supers back on at night (between flows)so they can clean them up before morning to avoid getting robbing started.
I was putting sticky supers back on at night when I learned not to do that! They were all over me and, as you say, they burrow and hold on. They don't ever give up or leave.
I try to never open them at night.
Agreed (with loggermike & MB). I only move them at night, out of necessity. They don't like to be disturbed at night.
Gregg Stewart
I was working a hive one night a few years back.... Needless to say, I haven't opened a hive at night to do a full inspection since.
I rarely get stung. I have gone for 2 years straight without a sting but that is usually because I fully suit up and wear a zipper veil, gloves, etc.... (Full body armor). I'm not allergic, but I hate to get stung.
Anyhow, those bees where the most upset hive I have ever worked. I ended up with 28 stings (4 through leather gloves) in various places on my body and that was wearing full body armor, smoking the bees and everything. They found holes in my veil that I would have never thought they could find and get through. Believe me, it is disconcerting to have a bee crawling in your ear!
A couple of days later I went back to check the hive to finish what I had started (and pick up the tools I had dropped on my quick exit) and the bees were as calm as could be.
I'll never work another hive at night if I can help it. To much stress on me and the bees.
I have captured swarms at night but wouldn't recommend that either! The swarms weren't that aggressive but it is just difficult to do a good job and see everything that you need to see and do in the dark. ( I wouldn't want to be the person holding the light for you in either case)

The heat of summer isnt a good time to work bees at night. Ooooo the joys of crawling bees. However, in the cooler spring weather I make nucs at night especially if there is a nice moon.
Maybe this well respected beekeeper is trying to weed some amateurs out of the beekeeper ranks??? :0
All the veterans know better!
No, I seriously doubt she would do that. I think she really does work the bees at night. I also know she doesn't use smoke unless she has to, and only wears a veil when she has to. I also know she's been keeping bees for far longer than most of us here. AND I also know she's one of the most helpful people and I consider her one of my internet beekeeping business mentors. She's got some funny ideas at face value to modern beekeepers, but when you examine things she tells you to examine yourself, its suprising what she knows.
Soooo......who is she?I am curious what kind of bee work she does at night.I can barely see well enough in daytime to work a hive!
This spring I made up a load of nucs then moved them a few miles.It was dark when I started putting in caged queens.Since it was such a small job I didnt bother to light the smoker.Needless to say,they didnt appreciate my efforts.My hands were getting a bit sore by the time I finished.Sometimes you just have to do beework under less than optimal conditions just to keep up with it.I used to hive packages at night to stop the drifting that happens if the day is sunny.That worked out well.
Mike - this same beekeeper, also produced 100 barrels of honey (that is 66000 lbs. by my calculation) by using brushes to remove the bees from the supers. She also easily loads hives four and five deep supers tall, with only a hand truck.
So have we figured out who "SHE" is?
I have.
When I was helping my commercial beekeeper-friend, we were moving bees at night. I would have to say it was not an enjoyable experience. The bees did not appreciate the annoyance.
The advantage of working bees at night is most of them are home. It's a good time to move them. From personal experience, its better to move them at 3am than it is at 9pm.
The greatest disadvantage is that most of them are home!. And night work has a whole lot of other disadvantages. The worst one is lack of vision. Put on a veil at night and tripping, dropping and squashing become real problems especially when working in brush or weeds.
Mistakes are not easy to correct. Dropped bees don't reorient and fly home. Dropped hives leaves lots of dropped bees. They crawl and sting any hot, moving, smelly object, ie. the beekeeper.
It's one thing to work a small hive or a swarm trap in the backyard at night. It's another thing to work a big hive in the brush, or yards of big hives of bees at night.
And traffic accidents are a real possibily at night with a tired, veiled beekeeper driving down the back roads. Yep, the bees continue to crawl around in the truck and make life miserable. Most beekeepers leave the veil on.
Knowing both the beekeeper and her bees. And knowing that her small bees get unhappy and sting at night when disturbed even with oriented combs. Some of them can get pretty unhappy during the daytime too. ;> )

I don't work inside the hives after dark.
They are very agressive at night. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure it out.
Just place the beam of your flash light on the entrance and see what happens.
Sure, they can't see in the dark but they can dart out. And if they get on ya, you're stung.
There is no good reason for working inside a hive after dark. I would not advise it.
The error here was assuming that the
beekeeper in question is "well respected"
by anyone who has kept bees long enough
to know not to work bees in the dark.
Sure I move hives at night, everyone
does. But I put screens in the entrances
and across the tops of the hives before
dark, just as "everyone else does".
We have moved bees only at nite,they wont fly.Experiment.Put a bee in a open room at nite.She will buzz around.Shut the light off,its dark,listen,she will quit flying rite away.Turn lite back on,She will start flying.When transporting a new real heavy hive,less losses when done at nite
B. roger eagles
sticky supers....
i place them back on immediately after i extract but only during the day when the workforce is away.
so who is this person who works bees at night? URL please. Thanks

Lessons of Benghazi
The bipartisan report on Benghazi released Wednesday by the Senate Intelligence Committee should finally convince conspiracy theorists of the obvious: There is no there there.
Administration officials did not orchestrate any kind of attempt, politically motivated or otherwise, to deceive the American people. In their public statements, including the infamous talking points, they relied on what intelligence analysts told them.

What is this insect?
I'm sorry the picture is so blurry but I was having a very hard time getting a cheap camrea to focus so close. Is this a pest bug and should I try and get rid of them? If so how should I?
I have already gotten rid of aphids with back walnut husk water. It worked wonders! I really do not want to use anything that will affect any pollinators that come around.
