It's just gone 6pm and it's all dark inside Mr T. Dee is blogging on her mobile. Mario is reading by torchlight. There's still some light out but the curtains are drawn for insulation. Tapping on the keypad and the occasional whirring noise of the wind-up torch helps distract from the constant downpour and the scary-sounding winds out there. We suspect it's gonna be a cold one tonight!
As we approached Mount Cook village that afternoon, we caught a bit of a "tan in the van" and sunglasses were not optional. Our skin was still warm to the touch when up ahead we saw it... we were driving into a storm! Weather is notoriously changeable in the mountains but this was ridiculous. This was just the start of a very dramatic performance by Mother Nature...
First she gave Mr T a long overdue shower then it was straight to bed. She (rather keenly) rocked us to sleep and sang us a howling lullaby. After a while we got into the rhythm of it and fell fast asleep. We dreamt of better weather so that we could at least SEE the mountains that faithfully stood guard at our crib.
Next morning we were greeted by an eerie silence. The calm AFTER the storm? There was still the odd gust of wind rocking the casbah. The occasional drizzle hinted that it wasn't over yet. That drizzle turned to sleet, and the sleet into snow!
Should we abandon this crazy expedition and head to warmer climes? We prepared Mr T for departure. As we started our journey we saw it; the sun rearing its head in the distance, struggling to break through. A preview of what was to come? We're not weather experts, and we didn't know which way the wind was blowing. So we decided to pop by the info desk just to check if per chance the weather prediction had changed. The day before they told us the storm would continue for 5 days but Mother Nature clearly had other plans. This time they predicted finer weather for the next few days.
So we returned to the campsite to wait it out - napping, reading and playing backgammon. We were duly rewarded. The sun was long gone by 9pm but it was still as light as dusk (6pm these days). The starry sky was eerily lit and the snow on the mountains was literally glowing. It was a full moon! Even though it was freezing, we just wanted to be outside. We didn't want to sleep, partly because of all that napping, but mainly to enjoy the show!
We re-entered Mr T to prepare dinner. Hopefully the meat will help keep us warm, any excuse for us meat-loving Saffas. But what's that? Someone knocking at the window? It's a creature of some sort. Is it a cat on a cold tin roof? The next night it was back, just in time for supper, this time its silhouette was clear in the moonlight. It cast a weird shadow and we could tell, those paws definitely don't belong to a cat. A possum? A ferret? I guess we'll never know which Mt Cook critter paid us a visit.
Mr T doesn't have a thermometer so we don't know how cold it got that night. It felt about fridge temperature; the wine got well-chilled standing on the table. We slept right through until 7. I awoke with a frosty nose and to answer Mother Nature's call
With the sun out, it meant the activities were running again. We secured spots on the iceberg kayaking adventure, their last trip of the season before the lake freezes over. It was a great activity day, sunny but cold. Kayaking amongst the icebergs on a glacial lake with Mt Cook backdrop was awe-inspiring. We also got some unreal shots after when we did the Hooker Valley track, a 4 hour hike. We were out until dusk, and caught Mother Nature's grand finale - the pinkest sunset I've ever seen with the strangest cloud formations over the mountains. We had a hard time deciding on a short list of pics. But they'll never really do justice.
Now for another chilly night...

ya know, back when lewis came out, one of the things that separated him from the rest was the speed he possessed...greene has tremendous speed for a lb. he'd be a somewhat project as a mlb as ud need to give him time to get considerably bigger and comfortable at that playing weight bc as he is built now, OL will swallow him alive when they get their mitts on him
hes also got great character and hed be a perfect fit for the giants bc of hometown
Khassem Greene , Im also planning on cutting Cinci and Arkansas
vs VT Bowl
I like Mark Harrison the Rutgers WR a lot to as a sleeper. Physically 1 of the most impressive WR's in the class.
DC Jefferson 2 the TE. I hope the Giants bring in all these guys. No reason not 2 they dont count against the visit total
I've read on numerous scouting reports that, contrary to what you might think by his safety background, he's actually pretty average in coverage. At least he has the athleticism to keep up with backs and TEs though. As said above me, He's the exact same height as Bowman 6' 1/2" but only 5 lbs lighter. I bet he'll be 240 at the combine.

I would have no objections drafting Greene and Logan Ryan in rounds 2 & 3 if possible. I think they would make a great addition to Big Blue.

text: I am trying to plan my small beeyard and was thinking about hanging my hives (probably 6). I have read where some places hang them from trees and I like that idea, especially not having my ground space occupied. My question was about wind. The wind here doesn't usually get too bad, but can be gusty at times. Do hanging hives suffer because of wind swaying them some. I would build a structure over the hives with a roof of some sort to protect from rains (maybe grow grape vines over it to give some dappled shade) and hang the hives from that with four cables or chains. I wouldn't think the bees would appreciate their home rocking and rolling like a ship in a storm, but would four cables keep it secure enough? Any ideas? Thanks.

A professor emeritus in computer science at San Jose State University, Rudy Rucker is best known as a popular author in science and science fiction. (He is also the great-great-great-grandson of the philosopher Georg Hegel.) Widely translated, his nonfiction books The Fourth Dimension and Infinity and the Mind have remained in print for 20 years, and the novels in his Ware series, about intelligent robots, have won two Philip K. Dick awards. He lives in Northern California.
Could you tell us a bit about yourself?
I'm a writer, a mathematician and a computer scientist—in that order. I've been in Silicon Valley for the last 20 years, and I recently retired from my computer science professorship at San Jose State University. I've published 26 books, primarily science fiction and popular science. My most recent book is nonfiction, The Lifebox, the Seashell, and the Soul: What Gnarly Computation Taught Me About Ultimate Reality, the Meaning of Life and How to Be Happy (Thunder's Mouth Press, 2005). Readers can learn much more about me by poking around my Web sites, accessible at www.rudyrucker.com.
What books are you currently reading (or have you just finished reading) for your work or for pleasure? Why did you choose them, and what do you think of them?
I'll mention a science-fiction book, a science book and a work of mainstream literature.
For several years now, science-fiction writers have been concerned about a possible future event known as the Singularity (with a capital S). The idea is that if at some future time computers become as intelligent as us, then they can set to work designing still more intelligent devices, bringing about an explosive feedback process that will leave us in the dust. It's a bit hard to write about the Singularity and its aftermath, but in his linked series of stories Accelerando (Ace, 2005), Scottish SF writer Charles Stross goes after the task with wonderful humor and zest.
Brian Goodwin's How the Leopard Changed Its Spots (Scribner, 1994) argues that the major features of plants and animals are generic forms that arise naturally in three-dimensional tissues made up of cells. I find this relevant to the current "intelligent design" discussion of how it is that the blind workings of evolution manage to hit upon such pleasing and efficient forms. Goodwin's thesis is that the kinds of forms we see in plants and animals are not at all rare or obscure; these forms are, rather, things that nature likes to do, as ubiquitous and readily made as the vortex pairs that appear in the wake of an object moving through a fluid.
A recent high-literature success, David Mitchell's Cloud Atlas (Random House, 2004), is at the same time somewhat science-fictional—something one sees more and more often these days. The novel consists of six long short stories arranged in an onion-like way; that is, five of them are cut in half and nested, so that the book's structure is: 1a 2a 3a 4a 5a 6 5b 4b 3b 2b 1b. Each story takes place a few years later than the one before, and by the fifth story, "An Orison of Sonmi-451," we're well into the future. This tale is presented as being a kind of video of a testimony by a condemned rebel clone slave named Sonmi; the number at the end of her name indicates that there have been 450 previous instances of her. She works in a future fast-food place that has a "beloved logoman" called Papa Song; he's a hologram who stands on a plinth and gives exhortatory morning sermons to the workers. Papa Song also entertains the customers—for instance, by pretending to surf on waves of noodles. The tale is a rich science-fictional satire—that is to say, a serious extrapolation from our current time into a future or alternate world.
When and where do you usually read (specific location, time of day, etc.)?
Typically I read lying on the couch in the living room in the evening, with my wife doing the same thing on the other couch or possibly knitting. I may read a bit more when I get into bed.
In the mornings I just read the paper, although last year I got so tired of the news that for a few months I was reading The Letters of Kingsley Amis (Talk Miramax Books, 2001) every morning. It's a mammoth tome by an enjoyably curmudgeonly modern British writer.
Who are your favorite writers (fiction, nonfiction or poetry)? Why?
Thomas Pynchon is the James Joyce of our time; he uses the richest language, and he plumbs the deepest feelings. For a science writer, Pynchon is rather congenial, as he has a nice way of integrating scientific modes of thought into his texts.
Jorge Luis Borges has wonderful ideas, fine language and a bracing dryness. Borges has a phrase that's of comfort to all struggling writers (he's writing of Melville and Edgar Allan Poe): "Vast populations, towering cities, erroneous and clamorous publicity have conspired to make unknown great men one of America's traditions."
When I was young, my favorite science-fiction writer was Robert Sheckley. When I was 15 I was injured when the chain of a swing broke and I ruptured my spleen. I was in the hospital, and my mother brought me Sheckley's Untouched By Human Hands (Ballantine, 1954). Somewhere Nabokov writes about the "initial push that set the ball rolling down these corridors of years," and for me it was Sheckley's book. I thought it was the coolest thing I'd ever seen, and I knew in my heart of hearts that the greatest thing I could ever become was a science-fiction writer. For many years, it seemed like too much to dare hope for. I've been lucky; not only am I an SF writer, I am a science writer as well.
What are the three best books you've ever read? Explain.
Thomas Pynchon's Gravity's Rainbow (Viking, 1973) gave me a real sense of how the world works, a feeling that life is an ongoing mysterious adventure. I recently reread the book, and it's still my all-time favorite. Edwin Abbott's Flatland (1884) is unequaled in its combination of social satire and explication of profound mathematical ideas. And I might as well mention the funniest book I've ever read, Beat author William Burroughs's The Yage Letters (City Lights Books, 1963).
What book has influenced you most? Explain how.
Stephen Wolfram, A New Kind of Science (Wolfram Media, 2002). Really, it was meeting Wolfram in 1984 and reading his papers that influenced me, but this wonderful book includes all of his relevant ideas. It was thanks to Wolfram that I moved to California and found a job teaching computer science. I wanted to be able to program his style of cellular automata simulations for myself.
Name three books you want to read but haven't gotten to yet.
I just ordered David Skrbina's Panpsychism in the West (MIT Press, 2005). "Panpsychism" is the notion that everything is in some sense conscious. Certainly it's the case that ordinary objects are carrying out complex computations. Wolfram convincingly argues that most of these computations are in fact universal and are thus (at least in principle) capable of simulating something like a conscious human mind.
I'm looking forward to reading Paul Di Filippo, The Emperor of Gondwanaland and Other Stories (Thunder's Mouth Press, 2005). Paul is perhaps the leading contemporary master of the science-fiction story; it'll be fun to see what he gets up to in his latest anthology.
I'm also eager to see the cosmological high jinks in Lisa Randall's Warped Passages: Unraveling the Mysteries of the Universe's Hidden Dimensions (Ecco, 2005).
What book recommendations do you have for young readers?
I'd recommend my fat SF-epic children's book, Frek and the Elixir (Tor, 2004), a fun transgalactic romp featuring a 12-year-old boy who saves Earth's ecology.
For younger children, Beverly Cleary's books are wonderful (even though they have nothing to do with science). I grew up on these books, and so did our three children. The earlier ones about the character Ramona are particularly wonderful. Beverly Cleary had an amazing ability to describe the way that children actually think. I had a chance to ask her about this once; she said it wasn't so much that she'd observed her own children, but rather that she had a very good memory.
For a high-schooler interested in math and logic, you can do no better than to get hold of one of the beloved math writer Martin Gardner's compendiums. The Colossal Book of Mathematics (Norton, 2001) is a fine print collection, and the full 4,500-page run of his columns for Scientific American is available as Martin Gardner's Mathematical Games on CD-ROM (Mathematical Association of America, 2005).
What science book recommendations do you have for nonscientists?
I always recommend my own book, The Fourth Dimension (Houghton Mifflin, 1984). The notion of the fourth dimension has a wonderfully rich set of links to human intellectual history: mathematics, physics, mysticism, spiritualism, religion and, of course, science fiction. And my treatment has yet to be improved upon. In recent years, it's seemed as if cosmologists are getting more and more committed to immersing our world into large-scale higher dimensions of space, so the study of the basics is particularly relevant.
A more recent science book I liked a lot was David Deutsch's The Fabric of Reality (Allen Lane, 1997). Deutsch has a very nice way of thinking about quantum computation as a process that spreads across multiple parallel worlds, and he makes a valiant effort to couch all this in layman's terms.
Philip Ball's The Self-Made Tapestry (Oxford University Press, 1999) is a fascinating and detailed discussion about instances where natural systems behave very much like computations. What makes this book particularly valuable is that Ball pushes past the superficial observance of similarities to analyze exactly how well the correspondences hold up. The science gets a bit heavy at times, but there are several illustrations on nearly every page.
Name one book in your discipline that you would recommend for scientists outside your field. Explain your choice.
I think my single most beloved book of mathematics popularization is David Hilbert and S. Cohn-Vossen's Geometry and the Imagination (Chelsea, 1952). The book is so offbeat and unexpected, coming at geometry from all sorts of new angles. Certain of the sections shade into being technical, but a lot of the material is very simple and visual.

My parents had a really happy marriage. They met and fell in love in a Seventh-Day Adventist (SDA) high school in Los Angeles. Basically good and good-looking, outdoorsy, kids, they rebelled against their church's strict rules against drinking, smoking, and pre-marital sex. Before they got hitched, at the frighteningly young ages of 21 and 22, they shared sleeping bags while camping out before the Rose Bowl Parade. The early years of their marriage were hard. My father was in medical school and worked 24 hours at a time in the hospital before going on to his part-time jobs at a gas station and a mortuary. He didn't have time to think, let alone feel. My mother, though, grew lonely and depressed at her secretarial position and afterwards, trying to attend to four year-old me and my much cuter and quieter two year-old brother. Just because we had been running around all day at our grandmother's house playing with our uncles and cousins didn't mean we were tired, or that dinner and the dirty house would take care of themselves.
The U.S. Army drafted my father right out of medical school and my parents opted to spend three years in Germany in lieu of two years in Texas. Although it was difficult at first, especially since my father had to train for six months away from the family, the easier work schedule and social life that they found on the base gave my parents the opportunity to turn towards one another again. Both of them enjoyed skiing and traveling and socializing with people from different cultures, ethnic groups, and religions. They explored Europe together, usually with my brother and me, but also alone or with friends.
I remember them laughing, but cannot think of a single time I saw them yelling or arguing at one another. Disagreements usually had to do with money—my father thought my mother spent too much on clothing for herself and the kids, while my mother complained that he spent too much on his sailboats. He generally deferred to her in actually enjoyed spending money on her, because she was beautiful and elegant and looked great in diamonds. She appreciated how hard he worked to pay for luxuries and went along with his enthusiasms, such as sailing, even though she never got as excited about it as he did.
She enjoyed just being in his company, she said, even if he seemed to be ignoring her behind his computer monitor. Both came from musical families that valued classical music. My mother also liked popular songs but deferred to my father's more intellectual interests in jazz and opera when they sat together in the evenings. My father admired my mother's taste in decorating, so if he decided what they did together, then my mother determined how the boat or the home they did it in would look and feel. My father liked to jokes and my mother liked to laugh. She laughed at everyone's jokes.
One of the most important lessons I learned from my mother is that one's husband should be interesting. "Your father never bores me," she said. He loved the way she rubbed his neck on long family car journeys. While my mother probably dedicated more cognitive room to my father than he did to her, and was generally less able to discuss his feelings, she was emotionally intelligent enough not to read any irritation or frustration he expressed as an attack on her person.
My father's temperament was basically sweet, and both of my parents had strong, emotionally involved mothers, so it was easy for him to accept her dominance in the household. She respected his dominance in the business and financial spheres. He wasn't too keen on her wish for another child in her late thirties, but he went along with it because he loved her. He also accepted very little responsibility for the nurturing of my sister. "Joan, your child is crying," I can remember him saying.
They accepted stereotypical gendered roles without buying into a philosophy of male dominance. My father had some old-fashioned attitudes, but he respected intelligence and ability in women. Both of them were strongly pro-choice. They pursued different hobbies but generally practiced them together (Mom needle pointed or read while Dad puttered on the boat). Mom never did master the black runs and usually got cold long before Dad, but she was a good sport and headed out with him every day.
Because my father's job was so demanding, they had to learn how to entertain themselves separately, but they shared the same Southern Californian, SDA roots as well as the same dream of a healthy, happy, family in which parents and children spent a lot of time together outside having fun. They planned a rich, relaxing, athletic retirement together, but that dream never came true. My mother died of colon cancer after a short illness in 1990. She was 54. Dad remarried another woman from the same high school, but she was an altogether different sort of person and did not bring my father much joy. Truly happy marriages are rare and precious.
My parents taught me a great deal about what a good relationship looks like. Partners do well when they admire each other's interests and respect their different strengths. I also think a man who bores a woman will soon lose her, no matter what else may offer, and that mutual admiration and toleration for one another is vital for long-term happiness. My parents' good marriage will always inform my interpretations of other relationships. It will also help me, a committed feminist and apprentice psychotherapist, to see that even couples who adopt relatively rigid gender roles can share power equally and effectively.

The room contains two beds, a large wardrobe, high ceilings, brand new floors, night tables, large windows and a big radiator. The apartment is supplied with toilet paper, paper towel, dishwasher soap, hand soap, and garbage bags. There are two washing machines and a large washing sink located upstairs. The flat has WIFI internet access in every room. The building is old but it has been remodeled and this apartment was remodeled very recently. There is an elevator in the building.
I live downstairs. You will have privacy at all times, but you can always knock on my door if you need anything. My friends help me out with meeting, greeting and managing the rooms. They also live in the same building, so there should always be someone to access. There might be other Wimdu guests in the other bedroom(s). I ask that everybody be courteous and clean.
The location of the apartment is on Benediktska street, nestled quaintly between Old Town Square and Namesti Republiky. This particular area of town is filled with fun and interesting things to do and see. There are bike tours, walking tours, river boat rides, and other fun stuff located within walking distance. Letna Park, which has a beer garden overlooking the city, is just across the river and up the hill. The grocery store is a 30 second walk and there is a 24 hour non-stop convenience store located down the street. There are two large shopping malls located a minute away.
Public Transportation in this area is fantastic. In general, you can walk to many fascinating sites, but if you want to travel outside the center, all three metro lines - Green A, Yellow B, and Red C, are within walking distance. Namesti Republiky is the closest (Yellow B). Also within walking distance is Hlavni Nadrazi (the main train station) and Florenc (the main bus station). Several trams go through Dlouha Trida, the closest tram stop, including trams 5,8,24, and 26. Jindriska tram stop is also close, which contains trams 3,9,14, and 24. Several night trams and buses runs through Namesti Republiky, so you'll never have an issue coming home, no matter what time of night!

Reviews of this property
Incredible kindness of the maid and Vicent, both are very friendly and my cozy apartment, clean, in a central location ideal for getting around without using transport undoubtedly would repeat!
Increíble la amabilidad de la asistenta y de Vicent , son muy simpáticos los dos y el apartamento mi acogedor , limpio,en una zona muy céntrica ideal para moverse sin necesidad de utilizar transporte ,sin dudas volvería a repetir!
La ubicación es muy buena y los anfitriones muy amables, lo único malo es el estado del piso, muy desgastado, sin cuidados, cables sueltos, tuberías a la vista, muy antiguo todo pero resumiendo, increíble ubicación y habitación con lo basico para ir a pasar la noche
Nous avons eu une grande chambre propre avec une literie confortable.
L'immeuble est très bien située près de l'arrêt de la navette Airport Express et de la vieille ville.
Vincent nous a accueilli à l'heure prévue.
Le moins pratique : les toilettes à l'intérieur de la salle d'eau.
Cependant nous recommandons cette adresse pour petit budget!
Reviews for this host's other properties
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
The apartment is right in the heart of the city. You don't need train or tram. It takes about 20 minutes walk to Old Town Centre. It's very safe as there is a police station right opposite of the apartment. The bedroom is so big and clean but the only thing was the bed, the mattress was too soft and deep inside and I got backache when I woke up. Toilet and kitchen is so clean. The price i also very reasonable. Hope we could visit Prague again soon and will definitely come back to stay!.
We had a great time in Prague. Viola let us in and showed us our room and gave us a map. She pointed Some Nice things on the map which we did, and it Where fun things that were not Very touristic. The room was nice, only the light did not work, but there was a small lamp that worked. The kitchen was organised and sometimes Viola was there so we could have a Nice chat, and ask her anything. Thank you Vincent and Viola.
The apartment was good, the room spacious and very close to the old town (not even 5 minutes to walk). Lots of restaurants and bars around. Vincent's assistant is a very nice and friendly person, always willing to help and answer all our questions.
The Flat was clean and Vincent and his assistant Lindsey are very friendly! She told us everything we need to know about the flat, the house rules and Prague itself.
The flat is large enough for 9 people but you need a bit of time management to get all 9 people through one bathroom with the only toilet in that flat.
For the breakfast we need to carry all the tables and chairs in one room so that we can launch all together because there is no real kitchen. And if you like to drink coffee you should better bring a coffee machine or at least a filter holder! Using a coffee filter inside a sieve is funny but need a lot of time and intuition ;-)
However, for that price I think the flat is fair enough for 4 stars and I really liked the close location to the center of Prague!
Thanks for the nice time!
Very nice and helpful host; great location! well, value for money

the mags came in today C-product mags of 32 rounds each.
so i took the upper out for a quick test.
i bore sited the 9mm upper to an el-chepo red dot @ 25 meters.
the upper ain't finished the barrel is just sticking out there no hand guards no front-sight/gas block and so on.
i fired about 200 rounds of WWB 115gr ammo , had ONE FTE.
it seems pretty smooth with the ramped bolt. strangely there is SOME recoil not a lot but more than i would have guessed it would have. i was thinking wimpy 9mmx19 got to have no recoil at all--LOL!
accuracy seems good enough i was slaying tin cans @ 25 , 50 and even 100m with ease.
it is pretty quiet to me. it sounds like a 22 rim-fire out of this 16" tube. of course my hearing ain't what it once was.
a couple things i think may have caused the FTE.
#1 i got the 7.62x39 lower that has the X-power hammer spring installed. this hammer spring might be too much for a 9mm build and is way-way more hammer spring than needed to fire 9mm pistol rounds.
#2 i just used a stock carbine spring and buffer. i know real 9mm ar-15s have their own buffer set up that is considerably more heavy.
i may try to cook up one of these heavy 9mm style buffers for this build -- i think the bolt may be wickedly too fast--once it jumps over that wolf XP sprung hammer.
so far it is an interesting thing to play with.
the 9mm is certainly worth it if you like "quiet" -- i can see why all the can guys love the 9--

This romantic renaissance look was one of the best beauty combos at NYFW by far. A deep wine-soaked lip with a glossy gold eye is so pretty for fall and the soft, yet constructed, braided updo is the epitome of sophisticated casual. Get the look: Try Stila Long Wear Lip Color in 'Daring' and Jewel Eye Shadow in 'Citrine.'
James Kaliardos for NARS Cosmetics created the look for the Rodarte show, which he described as: "Makeup that looked like it had been applied on the beach—slightly messy as if the mascara fell onto the face." Excuse us while we head to a sandy spot to apply our eyeshadow now. Get the look: Try NARS 'Coconut Grove' Single Eyeshadow, 'Mambo' Eyeliner Pencil, and Larger Than Life Volumizing Mascara.
Celebrity manicurist Deborah Lippmann nailed this Studio 54-inspired pink mani, which we'll be DIY'ing ALL NEXT FALL. Get the look: Apply two coats of Deborah Lippmann 'Amazing Grace' white lacquer, one coat of 'I kissed A Girl' pink, and one coat of 'Between the Sheets' fuchsia before adding a small pyramid stud to each almond-shaped nail.
Pin straight strands with a little lift at the root and electric blue-lined lids covered the catwalk at Rebecca Minkoff. This is the kind of day-to-night beauty look you want to wear to a weekend brunch and then out to an awesome party later...or at least we do. Get the look: Flat iron your hair from the temples down and tease the top for a little volume. To keep it looking smooth, apply TRESemme Smooth and Silky No Frizz Shine Spray. Line your eyes with Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner in 'Indigo.'
To complement Jenny Packham's gorgeous gowns inspired by the mid-17th century, TRESemmé Stylist Jeanie Syfu created a simple, chic ponytail tied with a silk ribbon. The look kind of reminds us of a grownup version of our kindergarten hair days, which is why we LOVE IT. Get the look: Applying TRESemmé 24 Hour Body Blow Dry Lotion throughout strands and TRESemmé Platinum Strength Strengthening Heat Protect Spray to the ends. Blow dry with a Mason Pearson brush for a straight finish. Next, create a part down the center and then section hair in two parts, separating across the back of the head from ear to ear. Gently tease the underneath section and along the horizontal line from ear to ear. Loosely pull hair into a low ponytail at the nape of the neck, letting hair fall out around the face. Secure with an elastic and finish with a ribbon.
Revlon Global Artistic Director Gucci Westman created four standout makeup looks for the ODLR show, but this "East Asian Jet Setter" vibe was our fave, by far. Plus, Karlie Kloss is our fashion week spirit animal. Get the look: Try Revlon ColorStay Ultimate Suede Lipstick in 'Trendsetter' or Revlon Super Lustrous Lipsticks in 'Cherries in the Snow.'
Lancôme National Makeup Artist Tarek Abbas created a dark eye with a lace accent stamp for Monika's cool girl next door presentation, but the best part of the look was the pop of green liner on the inner rim. Green is the new black. Get the look: Apply Lancôme Le Stylo EyeLiner in 'Noir,' Liner Design Gel EyeLiner in 'Bronze Couture,' Color Design Eye Shadow in It 'List' and 'Daylight,' Color Design Infinité 24H in 'Enduring Vert,' and Hypnôse Star Mascara in 'Noir Midnight.'
It was all about sleek low buns with a twist at Peter Som. Christopher Dove, Wella Professionals lead stylist, created the look to be both strong and minimal, and the result was beyond chic. Now this is a 'do we want to rock all the time. Get the look: Part and separate strands, then section hair in the back by pulling the back half into a tight, low ponytail at the nape of the neck. Apply hairspray and use a finishing brush to smooth the surface so there are no bumps. Twist the ponytail like a rope around the base to create a knotted bun and secure with hairpins. The two pieces in the front of the head and each side need to be twisted in the direction toward the head and then wrapped around the bun before securing in place, making sure to hide the pin. Rub a small amount of Wella Professionals Sculpt Force Flubber Gel between your fingertips and over any flyaways. Finish with Wella Professionals Shimmer Delight Shine Spray.
This earthy nail sprinkled with glitter was the creation of celebrity manicurist (and Beyonce's go-to girl) Lisa Logan and one of our absolute faves. Get the look: Lisa used Rihanna's personal fave, Red Carpet Manicure 'Black Stretch Limo' and brand new RCM gel shades 'Diva In Disguise' and 'Always Slate Never Early' to paint each talon. Then she dipped each tip in fine cut glitter that can be found in RCM Gems & Jewels Nail Art Kits.
"The inspiration for this look was a 1940's-era woman, an uptown girl, but then we made it more fun, and thus more Marc by Marc. We didn't want it to feel symmetrical or too perfect, the backbrushing gives a teased effect, a little crazy," said Guido, Redken Creative Consultant. Get the look: Apply Redken guts 10 root targeted volumizing spray foam from roots to ends and blow-dry hair. When dry, make a deep side part, then pin curl hair in small sections, alternating with a 1-inch curling iron and 1 1/4 inch iron, pinning each curl to the the head with setting pins. Leave to set and when the hair has cooled unpin each curl. Run fingers lightly through curls, then gently brush them out for more volume. Backbrush the top front section and then sweep the section across the forehead and secure in place with a bobby pin. Finish by spraying the entire style with Redken fashion work 12 versatile working spray.
This deep purple hue was so striking at Cynthia Rowley—it's the kind of color that instantly makes you a cool girl. Get the look: Apply Stila Color Balm Lipstick in 'Gemma' as the base color and Stila Improviser and Glance Eye Shadow within the 'In The Moment' palette over the Color Balm. Paint nails with Deborah Lippmann 'Dark Side Of The Moon' polish. All products are available at Beauty.com.

I would like to know how many times I could split my hives safely, so that they have the time, and the capacity to build up successful colonies.
Some commercial beekeepers I know, and work with split (all) their hives three times every year. I thought this was too much, but it works well with them. Would this require a lot (I mean a lot) of feeding?
Also, is it bad that I feed them honey from other hives? My brother works on proccessing (extracting, bottling, distributing) honey for a very large commercial beekeeper, and they have a lot of honey which they have no use for (if it gets dirty, you know). I've talked with one beekeeper and he said I should not feed my bees this honey because it will pass on diseases to them.
Thank you,

Sorry I'm not convinced. It was against a crappy 0-4 now 0-5 team. Plus he still lost a fumble early. Need to see more.
Sorry I'm not convinced. It was against a crappy 0-4 now 0-5 team. Plus he still lost a fumble early. Need to see more.
Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience. MB Rule # 1
I didn't saw the whole game,but I did saw some as well as some highlights. I've killed Bradshaw in the past and will continue to kill him until he can prove consistently he can run on a decent run defense. I'm convinced the Browns might be the worst run defense in the NFL and even David Wilson might agree. I would only eat crow if Bradshaw can gain 100 yards on the 49ers run defense. He will be lucky to gain 80. Bradshaw is still the third or fourth best running back on the Giants. And in my book he is still not good enough to be a starting running back NFL anymore, and that is in the face of what he did today against the Browns lol because I know better. If I don't know better, then Bradshaw will PROVE ME WRONG NEXT WEEK. I will not take back anything I said after one game against a bad run defense. Consistency.
before anyone starts eating crow I think we should see if he can average over 2.5 yards a carry two weeks in a row, a game doesnt make a career and its been a long time since hes been this effective, i doubt anyone loves what he did today but there are 16 games for a reason
Great game for AB....very happy for him and getting the W.........but it was the Browns. I want to see him doing it against a real defense.
I stopped fighting my inner demons. We're on the same side now.

I've talked recently about my favorite science podcasts. I listen to them frequently for, amongst other things, the witty banter and the interesting interviews. Such an interview was on Lab Out Loud with food chemistry expert Guy Crosby, Ph.D., about his book The Science of Good Cooking.
The book, co-authored by Guy Crosby and the editors at America's Test Kitchen, was released in October 2012. It is now a New York Best Seller and the #1 best seller in the "Food Science" category on Amazon. It has done pretty well for itself, as it rightfully deserves in my opinion. The hefty tome contains 400 recipes in over 500 pages, each recipe tweaked to perfection in America's Test Kitchen.
In fact, the recipes are perfect to a fault. There are recipes in there literally asking for 68-degree butter. I used to enjoy complicated recipes that call for 68-degree butter, back when I had no kids and unlimited time. But now that I have a toddler, I thank my lucky stars when I have all the correct ingredients on hand. Most of the time I improvise, swapping yogurt for sour cream because that's all I have and hey, dairy is dairy so close enough, right? I'm also going to admit I take whatever shortcuts necessary to obtain the fewest amount of dishes.
But was I going to let one toddler stop me from trying one of these perfected recipes? Of course not! I shipped the toddler off to her grandparents on a Saturday morning and started baking. For science!

I'm not sure what to do at this point. Hives (we have 2) were light, then they started getting robbed, so we upped the feeding and closed down the entrance. Got that stopped. Had strapped the hives in prep for hurricane.
That night a bear came through and flipped them both all the way over onto their tops. DH came home and bear fled. We flipped them back over (it was dark) and straightened them back out as much as possible. Moved them inside the backyard and strapped them to the fence (for storm and bear prep).
NOW they are being robbed again. Do I open them up and see about consolidating them? hope for the best? It's a free for all out there....I have NO IDEA what to do at this point. I feel like just hoping for the best and not dealing with it.
If the one hive is as bad off as I think it is, should we make it into a nuc (if the queen is still alive?) I hate to off a perfectly good queen...
UGH. Advice please. We are new beekeepers...Actually at this point, I'd be more inclined to say we are bee havers at best...and yuck.
Thank you!

Abler-Minded: From here to eternity
Perhaps the title ought to be more like from now to eternity, but I stole this one from James Jones who wrote the novel with the same title in 1951.
I read the book sometime during my high school years and saw the movie a few years after that. The book and the movie are both in my stack of favorite stuff for their realistic portrayal of life in the Army in the early 1940s and the mix of characters and subplots.
But this is not about the book or the movie or even the characters; it's about eternity. If there ever was a timeless subject for a column or long discussion, this is it. Yes, the pun is intended.
Eternity has been defined in many ways. One of my favorite is — two people and a whole ham. Another one is the school day on an afternoon in spring. Or you can think about three hours in the dentist's chair. When you first started dating the person you eventually married, the time between dates often seemed endless.
Right now, I'm thinking that eternity may well be how long it will take me to get through my email inbox. You know email; it was once a novelty. Then it became a convenience that turned into a necessity and now it's an onerous, ever-growing burden on my heart and mind.
I have more than 500 new emails waiting to be perused and mostly deleted. Just think about that when you decide to forward me your next bit of wit or wisdom.
I don't think I've sent 25 text messages on my phone since I discovered it would actually do that and I don't think I'll ever twitter, tweet or twaddle. Yes, I made up that last one. It just seemed to fit.
Have you ever thought about the fact there was probably a time when there was no time? Most of our greatest thinkers, our greatest philosophers and our greatest scientists haven't done as credible a job as the Bible in explaining what existed before the universe.
Time is an invention of the human mind. It gave him a way of measuring intervals between cycles of the dark and the light, the phases of the moon, the seasons and all the other things our more primitive human ancestors began to note, relate, ponder and catalog.
We did such a good job of that that we are not masters of time but slaves to it — working, playing, studying, eating and sleeping. We don't have the time to enjoy our spouses, our children, our families or our lives. Maybe it's time we decide to make some changes to that situation.
When there was a void, there wasn't anything to measure. And I firmly believe there will come a time when there will be another void in the physical sense of the universe. But the spiritual sense of existence can still be alive and well. I know some of you do not believe in an afterlife. However, to many more of us disbelief in an afterlife is simply untenable and unimaginable — even more unimaginable than eternity.
I challenge you to try to imagine eternity. Eternity really doesn't have a yesterday or a tomorrow. It can really only be a continuous present. Think of a straight line. Then picture that this line is infinitely long. You could think of this line as time, but in terms of infinity, we can't totally comprehend it.
Now picture another infinite line that is perpendicular to the first line and think of this line as place. The intersection of these two lines can be thought of as the continuous present.
If geometry wasn't your forte, at least you might understand this is going to make language a lot easier without any past-perfect, pluperfect, future, conditional, subjunctive and whatever other tenses you care to name.
Of course, we may not even require language to communicate at all.
Once time and the physical world no longer exist, it won't matter that they ever existed other than as a period of time and place where what we did and to whom or for whom we did it will be the determining factors in the spiritual "place" where we will experience the eternal now.
A quick translation of this is, do good to and for others — or what happens to you may not be so good.
And it's only the matter of one lifetime — a very short period in relation to eternity — after which we will all know for certain.
Well, that's what's been on my mind.

MUKAIYAMA, TOMOKO: Hello Pop Tart
A collection of contemporary piano pieces (except for the title track). Works by Henry Cowell, Charles Ives (an unpublished score of Celestial Railroad), William Bolcom, John Zorn, Frank Zappa and Fred Rzewski, well chosen and excellently performed. Altogether a fine CD. Except for the title track. I have no idea what it's doing here. Tomoko Mukaiyama merely sings - and she's no singer, nor can you really understand the sub Zappa text she approximates (it is printed on the strange plastic fold out sleeve). The music is risible, the performers uncredited. Mysterious. Sensibly the track only take up 4 minutes and is at the end of the CD so you can skip it. Highly peculiar, ungainly packaging. Still worth it for the piano music.

text: I've decided to finally address my check engine light and code P0449. I haven't messed with it yet to know if it is the solenoid or just a clog but I would like feedback on which parts to buy. Here's one ACDelco part from Amazon which is what I'm considering buying... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005OVKXTI/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER Here's another part which fits my truck which includes both the canister/solenoid assembly plus the purge vent... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000S2SKIY/ref=ox_sc_act_title_5?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER It's actually $9 cheaper than the one above so maybe I just need to go with it. Both from above need this wiring harness as well... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0055B121U/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER What are the opinions on these and are the Amazon prices the best? I'm a prime member btw so free shipping on all of them. Also, is the ACDelco part # 20995472 only for NBS trucks? Because the full kit for it is much cheaper than the others and looks to include hoses and a mounting bracket. My truck is a 2005 Silverado 1500 which I know the products I linked above fit.

ID cards provide valuable visual identification. They make it easy to know who does and does not belong in your building. Once you create your ID cards, you must provide ways for your employees and staff to display them.
If you have a tight budget for ID accessories, strap clips are an ideal display option for you and your organization. As low as $0.18 each, strap clips can attach an ID card to anything!
Strap clips are commonly used to attach ID cards to shirt pockets, belts and even purses. The strap clip and ID card should be worn so the ID card is easily visible and accessible.
In order to attach an ID card to a strap clip, the card must have a slot punch. Otherwise, you have no way to connect the ID card and strap clip.
You have several strap clip options. You can order strap clips:
- In a color that coordinates with your ID card design
- To hold more than one ID card with extra length.
- With a rubber tip grip so you don't damage clothing.
- To be worn on a belt.

Gentlemen, when did AR/sling training change? When I was introduced to AR shooting, we all looked like Gunny Highway with our upper right arm parallel to the ground and the right elbow sticking waaayyy out. Now I see a faggy looking hold on the weapon and it looks like the shooter is holding a screwed-up looking purse.
I know what I can do slung up proper or with a ChingSling but can't imagine hitting anything out past 125 with that new setup.
Anybody been trained properly in both?

[quote user="Kase-1"][quote user="MattMeyerBud"]
TV Ratings and total amount of people to the game speaks for itself.
Also the fact that so many teams sell out at home and not on the road just further proves the point how its not a nationally accepted game.
3-1 in a finals series on Ratings. THATS HUUUGE
[/quote]Do you even know what your argument is??? You keep changing it so often its dizzying.
1st it was boring, then it had no fans, then it had no tv contract, then it had no momentum once crosby was gone, then it had no tv ratings, and now it has no road following??
I think you just like arguing AGAINST hockey
No YOU changed it.
I said its a boring sport and the numbers prove it.
You quoted the numbers and made a point that they sell out...
It is still apart of the big 4... but the TV ratings blow.
Go look at 08-09's numbers, significant drop since then.
You then said that they outsell the NBA and quoted a percentage, but the hard numbers tell you thats not true.
Do you know what your arguing anymore because I've just responded to YOUR points?

Discussion in 'BUILD CHALLENGES' started by Charles, Nov 12, 2011.
Here's my finished trike...
So what do we do now?
Leaded, you are the man!!! Make the shhhhstuff yourself!!! Great looking bike.
Jgoodwill, Another free thinker. I like that.
Everyone keep up the great work, all your bikes are beautiful in their own way.
Pedal on my friends
Blue 8)
Is it to late to join in on this build?
Welcome. Glad to have you in this!
Alright ill post some pics soon due to the late join i wont have time for paint and whatnot. But I should have a good ridable mockup done.
Charles- your bike is great man...as are all of the others. The patina is perfect, unlike some of the other wannabes in this buildoff with painted on rust lol :mrgreen:
Everyone was dealt a good hand in this thread and as for painted on rust... some hold water like a grail. HAVE PROOF!
some process had been done.....bur still waiting for the tires and some other stuff... 8) 8) 8)
All due to a very stuck stem nut I don't have any progress but I will lay out my gameplan, Basically plan on making these two and some parts I have laying around, into a board track style bike. Should have it together before christmas!
side wiew .......see my first post in this thread.... some changes.....
I've changed to another frame but here is how it looks so far.
Now that's my type of frame. Looks like a great starter
So its three days past the deadline whats the verdict?
It's all good! Keep buldin'
So what's the new deadline...I've got a board tracker in the middle of a sex change that I might enter as well 8)
...and another custom-I just need a week from today. All of my guys backed out of the stingray buildoff... :roll:
A deadline is all up to us. No formalities. My call would be to keep it open for a couple more weeks. We have some great bikes going!
I will post a finished bike thread soon and we can run that out as long as we want. 8)
A couple more weeks I think I can get one together by then Luckily . I had a head start with thisbut . have decided to return it to original , plus the tires fit better on this

I Noobtube
Posted on 5th Jan 2010 at 12:32 by Joe Martin with 59 comments
One thing that's been bothering me lately though, is the amount of abuse that gets bandied around in-game and how I've never been able to play a game without someone crying about overuse of the noobtube. It's something I seriously don't understand.
For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about then here's a quick explanation; the noobtube is an under-barrel grenade launcher that attaches to most assault rifles. It takes up an attachment slot on that gun and comes with two shots only, though you can resupply if you've got relevant perks. The grenade it fires explodes on impact but is affected by gravity and it must travel a set range before exploding – making it useless at short range. It's a powerful weapon, but the appeal is curtailed by the low ammo count, restricted range, long reload times and fact that it fills an attachment slot.

Great location, nice bathroom, wifi, nice kitchen, but toilet upstairs not very convenient. I had one strange situation when one man pulled a door handle of our room when he thought noone was inside. After this I haven't met anyone from staff to share with this so I write it here.
For a short stay totally sufficient
Housing is very clean and has a very interesting geographical comfort and equipment for a good price. The atmosphere has to be more a hostel than a B and B. It is necessary to have an e-mail to be in relationship with Hester. Do not hesitate to ask for upstream information about where and how to dispose of keys.
Le logement est tout à fait propre et offre un confort géographique et matériel très intéressant pour un prix intéressant. L'ambiance a avoir davantage avec une auberge de jeunesse plus qu'un B and B. Il faut disposer d'un mail pour être en relation avec Hester. Ne pas hésiter à lui demander des renseignements en amont pour savoir où et comment disposer des clés .

Very good quality / price ratio, very clean, minimal equipment but everything is there.
In connection with the description upon booking
Very convenient as well on the subway line "Central" and especially bus line # 8
Drinks reception offered by the owner
We were 7 and we recommend this property for example 2 couples with 2 children each
We will return on another trip to London
Très bon rapport qualité/prix, très propre, équipement minimum mais tout y est.
En relation avec la description à la réservation
Très pratique car bien situé sur la ligne de Métro "Central" et surtout ligne de Bus N° 8
Boissons d'accueil offertes par la propriétaire
Nous étions 7, et nous recommandons cette location par exemple à 2 couples avec 2 enfants chacun
Nous y retournerons lors d'un autre déplacement à Londres
It's was very a nice place to stay. It's very close to bus or tube stations, and it's easy to discover the city from there. On the street beside the apartment you can find a lot of place to eat or to buy food, that you can cook on the kitchen that a it's properly furnished. The apartment offer anything you need for a cheap stay, it's not luxury but complete. We found it clean and comfortable and the Hester was very nice even we don't had the chance to meet she in person.
House is clean, Hester was still cleaning when we arrived. Only the refrigerator is new, the rest is really old 'junk'. Beds are not super. Walking distance to metro is 500 meters, doing fine. Recommended is 338 restaurant on your way to the subway. For £ 5 a very good breakfast or lunch!
Huis is schoon, Hester was nog aan het poetsen toen we aankwamen. Alleen de koelkast is nieuw, de rest is echt oude 'meuk'. Bedden zijn niet super. Loopafstand naar metro is ca. 500 meter, prima te doen. Aanrader is restaurant 338 op je weg naar de metro. Voor 5 pond een heel goed ontbijt of lunch!
We had a good stay in cheaplondonstay. The apartment was close to the subway and grocery store, so you can cook your self. The apartment was clean and we did not miss anything.
The house was not clean when we arrived, had a clothesline with clothes, the bathrooms were not clean, we had to clean the same day we arrived.
There were rules in the house that we were not informed when we hired the house, I wanted the limpiásemos home for the next guest arrived.
He did not want us to use more towels and sheets that we left, which in our case was not possible and we are chastised for it.
The house is much older than the pictures shown, each step is accompanied by a crack.
The toilet upstairs needed a stool to access it.
The only good thing I had was the price, location and Hester's attention until the last day.
If I go to London, I would stay in that house.
La casa cuando llegamos no estaba limpia, había un tendedero con ropa, los baños no estaban limpios, tuvimos que limpiarlos el mismo día que llegamos.
Había unas normas en la casa que no estábamos informados cuando contratamos la casa, quería que la casa la limpiásemos para el siguiente huésped que llegase.
No quería que utilizáramos mas toallas y sábanas de las que nos dejó, cosa que en nuestro caso no fue posible y se nos reprendió por ello.
La casa es mucho mas vieja de lo que las fotos muestra, cada paso va acompañado de un crujido.
El aseo de arriba hace falta un taburete para acceder a él.
Lo único bueno que tenia era el precio , la ubicación y la atención de Hester hasta el último día.
Si vuelvo a ir a Londres, no me volvería a alojar en esa casa.
Well suited for easy stay. Safe area to reach u train good breakfast cafe nearby!
Zum einfachen Übernachten gut geeignet . Sichere Gegend , u Bahn gut zu erreichen, Frühstückscafe in der Nähe !

This afternoon my sister calls me. I just got home and there are all kinds of bees flying all around our house. Thinking it was a swarm coming to land on her house, I told her I would be over.
They have an older house that they have remodeled and added on. The inside is finished, but the outside hasn't been. Lots of cracks and crevices. I get there. amd there are probably 200 honey bees flying all around the house - mostly concentrated on the one side where they had put in a new basement wall - and the block wall connected to the house sill. Looked to me like scouts earnestly searching for a new home.
So I ran home, grabbed a hive, bottom board, inner cover, and lid and head back over. I set the hive up, put lemon grass oil in it and set it up on their covered porch right beside the side of the house they were checking out. Got a water hose out and sprayed water along the wall to discourage the bees from doing any more checking along the exposed block wall / house sill.
The majority of bees quickly started investigating the hive - going in and out. Sometimes there would be up to 75, sometimes it slowed down. I'm assuming once the scout finds a suitable new home, they go back to the swarm, and do their dance so other bees can check it out.
I saw a little bit of fighting where several bees would jump on another bee coming to the hive. Almost like guard behavior which led me to believe perhaps there are two swarms somewhere out there.
By tonight when I went over, all was quiet. No bees in the hive. I set up a 2nd hive just in case there is another swarm checking things out. Is this typical swouting behavior?
I'll guess we will see what tomorrow brings.

text: Hi Guy's, Hoping someone can shed some light on this. I have a 97 Suburban, runs fine, has 211,000 miles on it. When I put it in 4wd high or low it sets off fine but after maybe 30-40ft there is a huge/loud "clunk" that you can feel in the floor. Feels like it is the front left ??? once it has "clunked" i can keep moving and it is fine until about the same distance and then it does it again - etc etc. It is fine when coasting or going backwards in 4x4 but going forwards under load their is this alarming clunk every now and then. I can shift back into 2wd and everything is just fine. Anyone any ideas? Took it to the dealer and got the usual run-around and wanted to charge me $200 to pull the fluid out of the transfer box to see if it had metal in it, I figured I could do that for a quarter of the price - but haven't yet. Any clues, whats it likely to be? Thanks - Chris.

Just looked at the weather report, and it seems that precipitation may once again influence my climbing weekend.
While rain is much needed in our country, and the world, i do not see why this needs to negatively impact climbing or any other sport.
So, in this light, I wish to propose new legislation, under the WEATHER MANAGEMENT ACT, which must adress the following issues:
i. No precipitation to occur during weekends, public holidays, varisity holidays, school holidays, or organised adventure sport events, except at times and at specific locations where such precipitation may be a requirement for the practice of an adventure sport (eg flash-flood kayaking).
ii. Where such an adventure sport requires precipitation, an application shall first be lodged with Dept Environmental Affairs, and will be permitted if no objections are raised. The applicant is then to make his/her own arrangements regards required precipitation.
iii. Where adventure sport is planned to be practiced on other days, an application shall be made for specificzero-precipitation days, specifying the region/s to be affected. If no objections are raised, the applicant will be permitted to reschedule precipitation as per the application at his/her own cost/peril.
iii. Any precipitation naturally scheduled for a weekend or public holiday shall be redistributed evenly between the weekdays of the following week. Preferred consideration will be given to previously drought stricken areas during redistribution of precipitation.
iv. Severe penalties to be enforced on those who disregard this act and precipitate outside of allowed time slots without prior approval.
I need someone to second this before we submit it to national legislature, and everyone is welcome to comment so that we can have a complete case befre submission.
It would also be nice if we can get someone to volunteer submitting this proposal to legislature, because I simply to not have the political clout to make it happen.
Planned submission date: 13/13/2013
I thank you for your consideration.

Re: proposed new legislation
My plans for the weekend also look bleak and I like your proposal, makes sense just like other laws being put in place. We could make a facebook group and people could "like" it to show their support and create change.
Re: proposed new legislation
Works for me, especially if universally adopted. I would also like to apply for weekday rain to only take place between 10pm and 10 am to allow crags to dry out for weekday evening climbing.
Also advanced notification will need to be given of intended routes which need a long drying period.

I'll start on the EU, you start on the African League (is there such a thing?) and will work upwards from there.
Re: proposed new legislation
if there's no african league, then I will found one to petition to.
Keep me on the loop on your progress with the EU!
PS: should we specificy control of other weather phenomena?

Re: proposed new legislation
While I'm at it I may as well attach a bill requesting heavy snows for the months of December, January February and most of March, interspersed with regular freeze thaw cycles to get the gullies full of snow and the butteresses coated in ice.
Following that I'm campaigning for huge low pressures to sit off the coast of Norway and produce pumping surf all summer long.
I may as well do it right if I'm going to do it.

Edifier Spinnaker Bluetooth Speakers Review
It's been a long time since we reviewed anything from Edifier, but with the recent release of the Spinnaker speakers, they were hard to resist. We decided to grab the bull by the horns and take them for a spin. With an eye-catching design, puns out of the way and wireless to boot, will these speakers catch your ear as well as your eyes?
Check out Jamie's full look at Edifier's Spinnaker Bluetooth speakers and then discuss it here!

I present the Daniel's creel
Daniel is a recently retired beekeeper which used this method on various type of hives and has decribed the method and the device on a french Warreist forum
It s an improvement of the method of total transfer of the hive initially described by Abbé Warré which called it "méthode héroïque" and was translated by "pioneering method" in the English version available on D. heaf website http://www.users.callnetuk.com/~heaf...ng_for_all.pdf The principle is simple, it involves transferring the whole cluster in new clean elements, bodies, bars or frames. This causes the renewal of beeswax and a complete (or nearly) elimination of parasites present in the brood. It significantly reduces the swarming of the colony.
An additional treatment with formic acid (FA) in the new hive , can eliminate 90% of the mites present in the cluster.
the principle:
When the honey flow starts, colonies are in the swarming period, the presence of brood in the hives is not very important. The girls are very active and suddenly, we remove everything. They find themselves in empty boxes.
The wax workers will immediately begin to build, the queen, with no more place to lay, stops laying, nurses which do not know what to do with the royal jelly they produce, feed then all the bees with it, foragers are in partial unemployment, then everybody goes to work to build quickly, boosted by royal jelly distributed by the nurses.
Milestones for the transfer:
• Out-wintering on 2 elements. - Start of the nectar flow in the first days of March on goat willow (great sallow) and blackthorn (Prunus spinosa).
• 1st dandelion flowers • 10-15 April: Add to the bottom of two empty elements on all hives, so they are on 4 bodies.
• 1st buttons Hawthorn early May: Checking buildings.
• Flowering hawthorn + / - 15 May: Add 2 bodies (under) before transferring (after removal of the first element filled with honey).
For strong colonies give them on the whole 5 bodies , 4 for medium and lowest 3.
Place the bee escape under the first element at the top, put a piece of queen excluder at the entrance in order to avoid the queen escaping from hive....or install the creel (see below) .
The next morning, no more girls in the first element.
- Remove the cover, cushion covers or frames.
- Remove the first element -> (isolate in) trash bag.
- Smoke quickly and generously the second element. The girls quickly get down into the lower elements.
- Remove the 2nd and if builded the 3rd element -> trash bag (!! carefully close to avoid robbery).
- Then place back cushion and with feeder roof to help restart. (specially in case of bad weather : feed).
Then everybody goes in "et voila" !
The duration of the transfer is very short, the bees have only one , maximum two hive bodies to leave to find themselves in brand new empty elements.
The bees who are in the creel, usually come back home quickly.
(You may give them a little honey in an body to encourage them to come back)
If you don't want to wait, you can pour them in the top (empty) body using the creel as a funnel.
If they are clustered (outside) on the net , they return to the hive without problems as soon as it is removed.
Then the hive is placed on 5 or 6 bodies following the buildings (in the case of the Warré hive be aware that they build a lot and very quickly ! )
You may also treat the cluster with formic acid (10 to 20 ml of 60% solution on a sponge on the floor for a day , redo it in case of strong infestation) with no dammage to the brood as there is no brood no more !
For smoking , no particular method (enough, with a good white smoke) but you can also help you with an leaf blower (use it nicely).
Destruction of the brood and waxes:
The former hive is in the plastic bag : if in the first body honey is sealed it can be harvested. Otherwise it is given back to the girls (in a feeder to avoid robbery).
For others parts, they have to be sulfured to destroy brood and parasites. Waxes are also destroyed by fire (or melted). In any case, nor wax nor brood are reused for bees.
Then leave the girls alone until late June or early July for harvesting first element.
Harvest late July early August the 2nd or 3rd element. If it is not sealed, leave it to the bees.
The last body below is not often occupied only a few early buildings are found, depending on the strength of the colony. It will provide an "sanitary" underfloor space.
usually 2 bodies are builded, the third being to be completed and the fourth (which it is built and not completed will be removed at the fall visit (and reposionned back in spring).
2 bodies on the 3rd (3rd = underfloor space).
The creel:
To prevent bees from spreading everywhere, Daniel has invented kind of a creel which adapts on the entrance hole.
When smoking, the bees come and stay in the net without being bothered by smoke. They are less aggressive.
It consists of two flanges of 12mm (0.5") thick plywood / 40cm(16") in diameter connected by four oak slats 70 cm (27.5")set in slots provided for this purpose. All covered with mosquito netting. One of the flanges is cut to fit over the entrance hole allowing the girls to go out and in.
According to Daniel, which used to keep successfully bees in supers of all dimensions, this method of transfer can be performed on all divisible hives (Dadant or Langstroth supers (shallow or medium), Rose hives, Warrés of course, Voirnot, etc...) because it is somehow a hived swarm with a naked cluster , in empty boxes.
He uses the same creel on every hive, with greater hives entrances, you simply have to stuff the free sides of the hive entrance with paper, foam or sponge,
