I am a new beek and I started two hives 5 weeks ago. Everything has been going fine, until today. I inspected them today and found that one hive has several queen cups. The cups are not frosted, nor did I see eggs or larva in them. The hive has ten bars of brood of various stages. Some brood hatched this week and I can see new eggs in some of those cells. I also did not see the queen today, but maybe she eluded me. It is obvious that she is laying. I have been giving the colony two empty bars on both sides (I have center entrances) of the brood combs for expansion. The hive appears very healthy in all respects, and the brood pattern looks textbook.
My question is: What should I do about the queen cups/swarm cells?
I briefly considered splitting the hive, but I do not think it is strong enough to do so. I think I would end up with two weak hives. Of course, if they swarm, then I will end up with one weak hive. I was also considering cutting out the swarm cells and checker-boarding the brood combs somewhat to give the brood nest additional space and have the colony build new comb in between the established combs. My thought is that this may curtail the swarm.
Suggestions? Opinions? Help.

Re: Ask me a cooking question
I watched a 15 minute recipe on Channel 4 on Friday. I've been looking forward all weekend to make keralan veggie curry. I copied the recipe and went shopping at Sainsburys. It is a large store but I couldn't find the following:
1 heaped tsp black mustard seeds
1 heaped tsp fenugreek seeds
1 small handful of dried curry leaves
What's the point of showing these recipies if the ingredients are difficult/impossible to find.

Re: Ask me a cooking question
welcome to the forum joe1892
Do you have a local Indian store near to you , if so you will find those spices really very easy to obtain.
I usually buy the spices for making curries from the Asian food stores as the turn over of spices are good so the spices are fresher and the prices are cheaper than in the supermarket .
The spices from the Asian food stores usually come in celophane packets rather than in jars and so after opening I either put a clip on the opening or wmpty the contents into a clean dry lidded jam jar.
Not all supermarkets carry a full range of spices whuch may be why they were not in the branch you shop at.
I hop that this has been of some help.

Everything was very nice and the apartment in good location
Really clean and nice apartment, in the mittle of the city centre. Reliable host, serviceminded and caring. Highly recommended. Thank you for a satisfying week!
I can only add to the other reviews. The appartment is great. The location is in the middle of the center. We walked most of the time and one day we rented a bicycle (located just outside in the parking garage). Pickup from the airport was pre-arranged and when we arrived we got an excellent welcome, explanations on the apartment and suggestions for restaurants, attractions etc.
We did not speak to Thomas in person but only because it was not needed as all was taken care off 100%!
We had a great time in Budapest, the flat was perfectly located to discover the city.
Everything was clean and well equipped, very functional.
The hosts were very reactive with our questions, check-in and -out went smooth - we were even able to stay longer on the day of departure given that our flight was in the evening.
Overall a very nice stay!
The apartment was quite satisfactory, with a nice and lovely bathroom, large bedrooms with comfortable beds and a well equipped kitchen. A good wi-fi connection a Tv set are a well appreciated bonus. Overall the place is clean and enjoyable.
The appartment is well located : the building entrance (with a secure door) gives on a pedestrian street with a supermarket just two steps away. There is also a big indoor market nearby. The tram and subway are just 5 minutes away. The distric is very safe and the neighbourhood quiet.
It was a very nice stay and we will defnitively go back to this partment for our next stay in Budapest.
The apartment is really well situated: you are walking distance to almost every place worth visiting! The apartment itself is clean, well equipped, spacious and quite luminous. Our host Thomas was nice, attentive and helpful. All in all, I can totally recommend this.
Excellent apartment in the middle of Budapest and a very attentive host. We arrived early in the morning and Thomas allowed us to check in at 8 pm instead of 14 pm. He also let us to leave the apartment later because of our flying time. It was a big relief for us. In addition Thomas gave us a lot of very useful information.
Apartment with a secured courtyard between the flat & the busy pedestrian street, very well located for restaurants, a very large indoor market and supermarket, also a few yards from a major underground station and tram stops.
The apartment has two proper bedrooms,living room and the kitchen The kitchen is has a proper cooker, fridge, microwave and modern sink. The bathroom is more modern that the pictures suggest, large, functional and has a very powerful & easy to adjust shower. There is also an entrance hall and very secure front door. Good WIFI plus TV. It was very clean and comfortable.
We enjoyed our stay very much and definitely would use this apartment when we return to Budapest.
Excellent apartment in the middle of Budapest. The Metro is just 1 minute away and the main shopping street is around the corner. The welcome by the staff and taxi pick-up are taken care off beautifully. I would definitely recommend this apartment to family's, friends or groups up to 6 people. The 3 bathrooms function really well, with enough hot water for everybody and 1 set of towels per person. Also the Wifi works really well.
To start with the summary – both the apartment and the host get thumbs up from me.
The apartment is situated on Andrássy út, one of the beautiful main streets in Budapest. It is just 100 m or so from the subway line (Bajza utca station) that passes the Opera and Oktogon on its journey downtown. It is a calm area and we had no problems to find stores or restaurants.
We were very impressed with the host, Thomas, and his friends. Overall, they were always friendly and helpful. Moreover, communications were proactive and action wise, e.g., when their internet provider had problems, they went the extra mile to support us.
The appartment is well placed, close to the Heroes Square and the Szechenyi Baths as well as to 2 metro stations in a charming part of Pest. Everything in the appartment is clean and tidy, the host is both organized and friendly and the exhange of keys and deposit at arrival and departure was handled on the agreed time and with great care. We had a great time!

A number of "grossly imprudent" transactions between Dominion Finance and its sister firm were "a cash grab" so the now-failed company could meet its obligations to investors, a Crown lawyer said yesterday.
Former Dominion Finance Group director Robert Whale, former chief executive Paul Cropp and an accused with name suppression have pleaded not guilty to theft by a person in a special relationship in charges brought by the Serious Fraud Office (SFO).
The five-week trial of the men in the High Court at Auckland is winding up and the Crown presented its closing arguments yesterday. The defence is due to begin summing up on Monday.
The SFO alleges the trio knowingly and deliberately breached the requirements of Dominion's debenture trust deed or that of its sister company, North South Finance.
A debenture trust deed dictates the terms and conditions between debenture holders (investors) and the company accepting the funds.
Some of these breaches allegedly occurred through a series of related-party transactions where $11.9 million went from North South to Dominion.
Through a mechanism called a security-sharing agreement and in exchange for the funds, North South took an interest in an "already defaulting or problem" loan which Dominion had already given out, a Crown lawyer said in court last month.
In his closing address yesterday, Crown lawyer Brian Dickey said these were "not genuine transactions" and happened at a time when Dominion "desperately needed cash" to pay investors.
"DFG's sister finance company had cash, and DFG took it in order to meet its obligations as they fell due," Dickey said.
"In this sense, the [security sharing agreements] were not genuine transactions. They were not done out of any sense of benefit to NSF, they were purely and simply a cash grab by DFG from its sister finance company." He said there was also "planned and actual" concealment of one key transaction and that trustees and auditors were lied to.
Dickey said some of the transactions in question at the trial were a "very serious departure from intentionally strict terms" of the North South Finance trust deed. The consent of North South Finance's trustee had not been sought, he said.
"The participants could not risk seeking consent in case they did not get it, which would have exposed DFG as a failed or failing going-concern business," he said.
"Consent, if sought, should or would not have been given as NSF was not in the business of propping up its sister finance company, especially by advancing large sums of money against poorly performing loans."
Dominion Finance
* Dominion Finance Group and North South Finance were sister companies and operating subsidiaries of the NZX-listed Dominion Finance Holdings.
* Both offered property and commercial loans.
* North South went into receivership in July 2010 owing $31 million to 3900 debenture holders, who are expected to get back between 65c and 70c in the dollar.
* DFG went into receivership in September 2008 owing almost 6000 investors a total of $176.9 million.
* Receivers estimate that debenture holders will recover between 10c and 25c in the dollar.


text: Greetings to all the Giants fans. I was reading some of the threads on here and I felt like making a profile so I could come in and say my piece. I just wanted to say that it will be a great game on Sunday. The Giants are not the reigning SB champs for no reason. Y'all have a great team! The 9ers are also one of the better teams in the NFL so it will be a great, hard fought game by both teams. If we lose I will not hang my head in shame because we will have lost to a great team. Of course I hope we take the W because I am still a little bummed about how we lost to you guys in the NFCCG. Even though we lost that game, I was still stoked that the 9ers made it as far as they did. Coach Harbaugh turned our team around so damn fast! I wasn't expecting much last season because I had become so used to losing. We had to endure the "decade of suck", and it was and still is an awesome feeling to see the 9ers relevant again. Anyhow, good luck (that is not meant as a backhanded compliment) to the Giants team. Hoping for no injuries to either team's players. Go 9ers!!!

Nice looking house, generally looks well made. Its not one of these cheap Chinese fall to pieces in first puff of wind things. It seems a good price too.
Only thing I'd say is that firstly Tongue & Groove will encourage the scourge of every poultry keeper, red mite. If you don't know about RM, do your research. To know your enemy in advance is better than finding out the hard way.

Winning--in professional sports, certainly--is everything. Playing well consistently is an important component and contributor to winning.
"Everything" and "important component" are not the same thing.
So it's not important to be consistent all the time?
Sounds like you are saying that if a team is going to lose they might as all look bad doing it. No wonder some are not disappointed with the way the offense played this year. Hey, if the defense stinks they might as well stink too right? Good thing they didn't play that way last year.

If your looking for the best wedding venue in Denton for cheap , then look no further! We have carefully chosen the top locations for your reception day …
Getting married is a beautiful proof of love and commitment over the long term between a couple.
Where the wedding takes place is crucial and you must choose carefully. Where the cocktails will be, wine , buffet and meals. This is all part of the budget goal, the preferences of the bride and groom will determine the ideal location. It is quite feasible to organize a beautiful day without breaking the bank, provided it takes a little time in advance.
Is the price cheap and affordable ?
To find a place for an inexpensive cost, you have to book a little in advance, in order to have enough choices. Some places are rented with or without the equipment, depending on the room's rental service. For a the reception, consider the number of guests, as well as the area. Some wedding venues Denton often offer a empty banquet hall. Following the evening's themed buffet meals, sitting, dancing, it is better to get a particular room. The rental of tables, chairs, sound system and appliances helps to get a good price for the room, compare prices and create competition. A cheap rental hall is not necessarily associated with a small one!
The country farm for outdoor wedding venues
Among the favourite spots for future newly-weds, is the farm. It must be said that a farm will be far less conventional than an expensive restaurant, it is a classic space but also more authentic than a room rental. Again, as well as to find a cheap rental, it will take time to visit the different farms, as well as compare the offers. The price may be interesting depending on the season. In colder seasons, the cheap Denton wedding venues cost a little cheaper than during the summer time.
The restaurant for a more conventional indoor wedding
The restaurant remains a classic for weddings: using a restaurant allows you to choose the place according to the budget. Restaurants usually offer menus packages such as "all inclusive", which allows you to control the budget while benefiting from skilled providers. It is feasible to choose a restaurant in a field or a vineyard to make the the occasion romantic and unique. Among the most unique places to get married, the restaurant is not top on the list. However, if it is chosen in a special setting, it could be just as good as the farm, castle or the boat.
The boat for a wedding on the water
The boat is one of the most special places. Boats are chosen based on the number of people, the theme of the evening and the budget. Between the small boat, large or luxury boat, they are all good choices according to what you are looking for.You must determine your budget spending for the boats you want. Next is the location of the ship. For a sit-down meal, ensure that the boat is spacious enough to accommodate all your guests. The downside, it is imperative to reserve the boat in advance especially if the it will take place in the summer time..
The castle for a romantic and luxurious wedding
Finally, the castle is one of the most romantic places, and the most luxurious. It is like having that fairy tale come true from when you were a little child! Renting a castle is more expensive than a room rental. A castle generally offers several kinds of services: single natural settings for the photos, patio for the cocktail reception room for the meal and a room for dancing. Some castles also have rooms, so guests do not leave by car at night. Treat yourself with this dream wedding, fit for a true princess.
It is an understatement to say that there are thousands of choices to make when organizing the outdoor Denton wedding venues . It is committing to the person with whom you will want to spend the rest of your life, which is absolutely wonderful in itself. If you are lucky enough to have found your sweetheart, choosing the best time to do it is the great demand. The choice of a date convenient to both and at least 95% of your guests who will be coming to witness your special day. But I promise you that all this can prove to be a wonderful task !
Today I would like to give you some tips to help you make one of the most important decisions of this adventure, which will affect each of your decisions.
We must first ask yourself three key questions (after setting your budget, of course!):
-Are you religious and want your wedding in a place of worship ?
-How many guests are you expecting to attend? 30 people or a large family of 300?
-What kind of place do you like, where do you feel better? A museum filled with works of art? A boutique hotel in downtown? An old barn in the countryside? If you said a villa in Tuscany, we understand you!
With these answers, you can then start looking for the ideal place. Also some good help for you can be Google, parents and friends, blogs, photographers or wedding planners: you'll see many marriages of which you may had a heart stroke but they certainly guide you to places unusual or that you did not know existed. To avoid crises (and maintain the harmony of your couple), I suggest you look at two places, you can compare up to three if you have nerves of steel.
Here are my top 10 important things to check before choosing a wedding venue:
- Room Dimensions : Usually, there are about 10 ft per person for a sit down meal, with round tables of 60 inches of eight. In 3000 ft, you should be able to accommodate 300 people. But beware! Remember that you will definitely need a dance floor, a lounge area, a photo booth or stage for your band. Keep in mind what will be in the room and do not just rely on figures.
- Cocktail area : Is there a fireplace, a terrace or garden for cocktails? Is the area covered, is it heated? If not, is there a plan B if the weather is bad on your wedding venue in Denton ? More importantly: Is there any extra charge for this second space?
- Parking : Parking is it shared or exclusive for you? How many spaces does it have? Do you need to pay or is it included? If there is not, perhaps will you consider a shuttle service or valet?
- Access to the room hours : Not only for installation on the wedding day, but also for disassembly. Some places allow you to return the next day, others require you to restore the site condition before leaving. It is information that you must absolutely mention your suppliers because of dismantling fees that may apply.
- Inclusions : Does the place offer anything extra? Tables, chairs, tablecloths, towels, garden furniture? Ask to see the equipment, see the colors, make sure of the quantities. Do they have lighting, a sound system, a projector and screen? And if you want to rent, is there a room for storing the equipment ?
- Exclusives : Some rooms work exclusively with caterers, bar services or audiovisual services companies. In the event you choose a supplier other than those proposed, they could charge you a fee or penalty. Hence the importance of the question from the start.
- Accessibility to the room : Is the staircase the only way for your guests to get to the reception room on the 4th floor? Is there a lift for the disabled or the elderly? If you rent furniture, is there a loading dock?
- Candles : this may seem like a small detail, but if you were thinking of having hundreds of candles in your room, it is important to ask if the room allows it. Most of the time, open flames are prohibited. Some places may require LED candles, which does not have the same effect, admit it! So this is definitely an important step.
- Additional costs : In addition to the room rental fees, find out about the cleaning, electricity (a band requires much more stuff than a DJ!), To set up the room, storage.Is the dressing room included? Will you have security guards?
- Contract : Request a sample contract and take the time to read all the agreements: (We hope not, but hey) what will happen if you have to cancel the wedding. Does the room demand food and drinks? Make sure that everything you have agreed together will be shown in the final contract.
Ok, I will give you an eleventh tip! Go there to visit the places! Meet the coordinator or manager, see if the place is right for you in person, and see how long they take to respond to your calls or emails. If everything seems to go wrong from the beginning, tell yourself that things will become more complex as you approach the date of your wedding, and your stress level will increase. So it is important to be 100% confident in your choice.
So this was an overview guide of choosing the top Denton wedding venue locations for your reception banquet hall and what we think is the most important aspects of the places you decide to look at. We hope you have an excellent, fabulous, fantastic special day that you will remember for the rest of your life ! 🙂 Cheers!

APCNews 106 – August 20 2009 - APC Progress report 2004 - 2008
APCNews – August 20 2009 – Year X Issue 106
The news service on internet for social justice and sustainable development
APC's 2004-2008 strategic priorities were defined in late 2003 in Colombia, where APC members used their local knowledge of how civil society groups are using the internet for positive social change to assess the opportunities for APC to make a difference on how people use and think about the internet worldwide. What changes were brought about? No social change is the work of purely one organisation however in this period, we have worked to make sure policy makers increasingly see ICT policy as essential to development. As a consequence of our capacity-building work with hundreds of organisations, we helped transform how women's movements think about technology and the internet. And we trained almost 700 social change organisations in ICT policy and the strategic use of technology. Hundreds of people living in Latin America and Africa are able to set up cheap, wireless internet connections to the internet thanks in part to APC. APCNews extracts some of the most inspiring stories from the APC Progress Report for 2004 to 2008.
From Colombia to social change: APC reviews our journey from 2004 – 2008
MONTEVIDEO (APC for APCNews) – In late 2003 APC gathered in Colombia to define our strategic priorities for the following five years. Like most good APC meetings, the event mixed politics with capacity building, debate and dialogue with dancing, and it was the largest meeting in our history at the time. Looking back over this period in earnest is quite intimidating. We hope that the APC Progress Report for 2004 to 2008 will give you some idea of those challenges and gives us an opportunity to recognise why APC is what it is and why we do what we do – making the world a better place by helping people gain the access, the skills, and the rights they need to work together online.
The strategic use of technology for social change: APC and the women's movement
MONTEVIDEO (APC for APCNews) – As a consequence of our capacity-building work with hundreds of organisations and people from the women's movement, we believe that we have helped to transform how the women's movement thinks about technology and the internet, and that their confidence has been built to use technology more and more creatively to further women's rights. "In the last five years, we have worked with many people and organisations," says women's programme coordinator Chat Garcia Ramilo. "What we have discovered is that this overall process of capacity building takes a long time, but if we persist long enough, we find out what changes it brings about."
Ensuring the internet is run with rights at the fore: APC and the internet governance forum
MONTEVIDEO (APC for APCNews) – The Internet Governance Forum (IGF) was set up in 2006 as a kind of "pressure relief valve" for some of the most controversial international discussions on the future of the internet. The IGF provides a space where this type of dialogue, between adversarial opponents, can really move towards deepening understanding and ultimately influencing decision makers to make better internet policy for a more just world. Learning to listen to traditional adversaries, understand different perspectives and look for common solutions to complex problems, without losing sight of closely held values and principles, has not come easily to an international rights-based NGO with a broad activist membership like APC. We explore our role in the creation and development of the IGF and its agenda.
ICTs and women's equality: APC and the gender evaluation methodology (GEM)
MONTEVIDEO (APC for APCNews) – "With GEM I began to appreciate why sometimes the women that are part of our community resist the empowerment process. I used to be annoyed but now I understand that this is the product of years of conditioning and it will take some effort to reverse the trend. GEM helps you see the situation for what it is, so you can optimise your resources where you can make the maximum impact in creating change," John Dada has been a GEM user since 2007 in rural Nigeria. GEM is an evaluation tool for determining whether ICTs are really improving or worsening women's lives and for promoting positive change. GEM has been developed from the ground up, and has involved the collaboration of hundreds of community-based organisations and individuals since its first design in 2002.

Have really enjoyed your blog and will be sorry to see it come to an end .
Apparently England didn't win
Loading Map
It's a pretty short drive from Dover to Boughton -being one of England's hundreds of lovely old villages, and a very short distance from Canterbury. We stayed at a pub which was built in the 1400s and restored in the 1980s
We've seen the World cup unfold in Poland, the Czech Republic, Germany and Holland. There's been flags flying from cars, young women with stick-on flags on their faces, t-shirts, all about the same. All good natured as well as passionate. We have to saay it isn't like that in England. It was a bit desperate. The papers ran a jingoistic anti-German line the day before, and several of them went on about "the war". After it all came crashing down, the papers were baying for blood. Even the BBC morning show was asking why England lost to Germany. The England captain summed it up rationally - he said, they're a brilliant side and they deserved to win. We saw four seperate incidents on the afternoon of the match - one before and three after
That's the serious bit over. The weather is still fabulous - 30 degrees and blazing sunshine. We've both had the consistently best summer weather we've ever experienced - who'd have thought it in Europe and Britain? How lucky are we...
Canterbury is lovely as lots of people will know. Dave hasn't seen it before but Di has. Of course we should stay longer but we can't have everything. We really enjoyed the stay in a little village again. As with our friends in Wezup, Holland, it allowed us to smell nature and walk on the grass and soil.
We've put some photos of both Boughton and Canterbury on this page. We've also put three short videos on of a ride through the back roads of Kent. It's such stunning country that instead of cutting the footage down to about two minutes, we've put three up of two plus minutes each
A certain someone has made a subtle reference to V8 Holden utes and perhaps implied it's a bit excessive? Our response is, you don't need a 5.7 litre V8 - until you've got one of your own...
We're in London now, back at Earl's Court - Jackson Browne at the Albert Hall tomorrow night. Can't wait!
Post your own travel photos for friends and family More Pictures
jackson browne is a great act always loved his musical ability especially songwriting. he doesn;t seem to age! AND HIS VOICE IS AMAZING, SHOULDBE A GREAT CONCERT. DAVE WE ARE ADDING A FEW NEW SONGS IF YOU AGREEN WITH GOOD BASS RIFFS. HAVE YOU HAD A CHANCE TO PLAY OR ARE YOU TOO BUSY TRAVELLING GETTING EVERYTHING IN. UNREAL JOURNEY YOU HAVE MADE AND WITH WEATHER SO SIMILAR TO MT GAMBIER (NOT), MY SENSE OF HUMOUR REGARDING WEATHER IS STARTING TO SUBSIDE! CHEERS PHIL
Thank you for the beautiful account, photos and videos of Kent. Takes us back to England's green and pleasant land with its lush greenery. You are probably there at the best time before the higher temperatures which Britain now experiences, kill the grass. The villages look classical. These are the things we still miss even though we love Australia and are so grateful for what it has given to us. Must go and pick up Erica for our regular Wenesday outing. We may go to see Shrek 3 this arfo. Haven't seen films 1 and 2 but it probably doesn't matter. On a Mt. Gambier winter's day of ten degrees, the pics. are a good option. Lots of love. Mum and Dad.
Aha, some cold feet coming up, but changing the subject from pedigree to amount of cilinders won't help. Thing is that I realised that a certain make of car has origines in Chevy's who are GM products as are Vauxhall's and Opel's. So one could argue whether a certain make of car is not sort of a beefed up Opel Kadett. Because these happen to be originating from Germany one could conclude that certain Australian's are driving German SUV's.
cheers from a fellow SUV driver

Next-generation firewalls (NGFWs) have emerged to revolutionize network security as we once knew it. Traditional firewalls that only focus on stateful packet inspection and access control rules are simply not effective in today's advanced-threat environment. To safeguard your organization from today's ever-evolving threats, your NGFW must be able to deliver a deeper level of network security. To combat growing security challenges, more organizations are migrating from traditional firewalls that focus only on stateful packet inspection (SPI) and access control rules to next-generation firewalls.
NGFWs have revolutionized network security by providing more robust protection against emerging threats. In addition to traditional firewall features, NGFWs feature a tightly integrated intrusion prevention system (IPS), real-time decryption and inspection of SSL sessions, and full control and visualization of application traffic as it crosses the network.

I had a very pleasent stay in Lisbon. The apartment was clean and quite, location was perfect (walking distance to metro and the City center - Rossio Square). The hosts were very kind, discreet and helpful. My sincere recommendations.
Once again, a fantastic week in Lisboa at Claudia's place. The appartment is cool, really well situated and very confortable. Carlos was always ready to answer our questions and share good tips on Lisboa. Excellent!
This is a really nice, clean and cozy accomodation, with good facilities and an awesome and helpfull host named Carlos! Location is at walking distance from the citycentre. We had an amazing time in Lisboa and we did not want to leave at all
I recommend this place!
Carlos has been very kind.
Appart in a very good position (between the old part of the town and the "modern" centre), clean room and everything as in the pictures!
Super clean room, nice flatmate, big kitchen, central flat, metro and supermarket in walking distance (3-5 minutes) !
Highly recommended place! The apartment is conveniently located between two metro stations, with a walking distance to Baixa and even Castello Sao Jorge (if you enjoy sightseeing on foot). Room was quiet, rather small but comfortable with a large bed, and two bathrooms are a good idea, as the place gets busy sometimes. We stayed for 3 nights and didn't meet the hosts but were welcomed by Carlos the roommate. We are very grateful for precious tips regarding dining in Lisbon and places worth visiting along the coast! :)
acceptable place in good location to downtown. The rooms are a bit smaller than they appear in the pics and there are quite a few people lodging there. A bit of a students place, however fairly clean and quiet.
We didn't meet hte hosts, but Carlos was friendly.
The room war fine. The flat ist located near a Subway Station. The citycenter ist within walking distance. Carlos war friendly and already helpful.

Carlos has just as many siblings as I do but he knows nothing about sibling rivalry. His brother and sister are much older than him so a good amount of his childhood was spent almost like a single child.
I, on the other hand, was born in the middle of an older sister and a younger sister. This usually meant that when we went to war, (which we did often), I always had an ally. My older sister and younger sister never teamed up together – that's the benefit, (and injustice, depending on which side you fall), of being one of three.
Now as a mother of two boys I sometimes try to view their relationship from their perspective as siblings. Two brothers means there are no allies – it's direct one-on-one combat – At least it keeps things fair?
When the boys fight, I usually turn a blind eye and let them work it out on their own, knowing it's just one of those things siblings do, but Carlos considers this "American parenting" and will have none of it. When the boys fight, Carlos takes action. "Ey! You're brothers! What's wrong with you? Brothers don't act like that!"
"Yes, yes they do," I say to myself as I watch Carlos force them into a stiff-armed hug under threat of the chancla. Carlos's heart is in the right place, but I think sometimes you just have to let them work it out by themselves. Conflict management skills come in handy in the real world anyway, verdad?
The funny thing is, when our hijos "fight" – their acts of revenge aren't even that bad. The things they do to each other are fairly innocent compared to what my sisters and I did to each other when we were all under the same roof. Our youngest son has erased his older brother's user account on a video game. Our older son has hidden a toy from his younger brother – That is usually as far as it goes.
Some of the routine things we did to each other as sisters included:
• Insisting our little sister was adopted until she cried.
• Turning out the lights and terrorizing our little sister with scary monster noises.
• Locking each other out of the house.
• Stealing our older sisters clothing/perfume/jewelry.
• and, picking up the phone while our older sister was talking to a boyfriend and saying things about her that would humiliate her.
When my mother left our older sister in charge, it was time for our older sister to get revenge. My little sister and I usually ended up locking ourselves in the bathroom so she couldn't beat the crap out of us for all the things we'd done to her during the week.
Our older sister had one boyfriend in particular that we didn't like. My little sister and I took some dinner rolls and drew wings on them with a marker, then we chucked them at him from the next room. (Not sure why we bothered to draw wings. It was creative cruelty.)
Then there was the Thanksgiving my family will always remember. At the table my older sister kept putting her finger in my face and doing the "I'm not touching you" thing. Being someone who values their personal space, I warned her that if she didn't stop, she would be sorry. Of course she did it again. I grabbed her shirt collar in one hand and punched her in the face with the other. She got a bloody nose and I broke a necklace she was wearing. My mother cried because she envisioned a Martha Stewart-esque meal. (Sorry, Mom.)
My older sister had to put up with a lot from us two, but she'd get a break once in awhile when my little sister and I got into our own battles. One time my little sister stole a book from me. She ran to her room with it and locked her door. I kicked her door so hard I made a hole in it. She also did this to my door on one occasion. I think that was the same day she threw an iron at my head. My little sister also chewed up the feet on my Barbies multiple times – They were so deformed they couldn't even wear their high heels.
This all sounds dysfunctional written out like this, but I'm pretty sure it's normal. There was a lot of fighting, cruel pranks and rivalry, but we loved each other and still do. The good memories far outweigh the bad, and I love having two sisters, (even though I once told them I'd trade them both in for a brother.)

Hyundai will begin production of its hydrogen ix35 fuel cell vehicle by the end of the year, becoming the first global automaker to begin commercial rollout of a zero-emissions vehicle.
In December the Korean firm will begin production of the ix35 Fuel Cell at its Ulsan factory, with a target of building 1000 vehicles by 2015.
Hyundai has already signed contracts with Danish and Swedish cities to lease the ix35 Fuel Cell for council fleets.
Beyond 2015, Hyundai plans limited production of the ix35 Fuel Cell, with a goal of 10,000 units - though there are no plans for the vehicle to be sold in New Zealand.
"The ix35 Fuel Cell is the pinnacle of Hyundai's advanced engineering and our most powerful commitment to be the industry leader in eco-friendly mobility," said Woong Chul Yang, head of Hyundai R&D.
"Zero-emissions cars are no longer a dream.
"Our ix35 Fuel Cell vehicle is here today, and ready for commercial use."
Built with patented technology, Hyundai's ix35 Fuel Cell is powered by hydrogen.
A fuel cell stack converts the hydrogen into electricity, which turns the vehicle's motor.
The only by-product generated is water.
The ix35 Fuel Cell boasts driveability and performance similar to the petrol-engined ix35 models.
It offers rapid refuel with hydrogen taking only a few minutes, and can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 12.5sec, with a top speed of 160 km/h and a range of 588km.
The cost of fuelling the vehicle in Europe is roughly equivalent to NZ$15.59/100km of driving range.
A fully-charged ix35 Fuel Cell takes about 5.6kg of hydrogen, meaning a fill-up costs about $87.
Hyundai says the technology is the result of 14 years and several hundred million dollars of research by hundreds of engineers at its fuel cell R&D centre in Mabuk, Korea.
The car has logged more than 3.2 million km of road testing in Europe, Korea and the US.
Early this year an ix35 Fuel Cell set a record for hydrogen cars by driving from Oslo to Monaco using only existing fuel stations.
Travelling via Denmark, Germany and France, the vehicle covered 2260km in five days.

'Bethenny Ever After' Recap: Bethenny And Jason Join The Mile-High Club!
On the April 11 episode of Bethenny Ever After, Bethenny and Jason take a private jet to see the Skinny Girl factory and spend their first night away from baby Bryn!
It was an exciting episode of Bethenny Ever After last night, as Bethenny Frankel and her hubby Jason Hoppy hopped a flight to Montreal, Canada to get a glimpse into the Skinny Girl bottling plant! And let me tell you, there were A LOT of Bethenny margaritas being made…
Before jetting off on a romantic getaway, Bethenny heads to Skating With The Stars practice where she learns how to do a death spiral. And let's just say, she's not amused. But after much complaining, Bethenny toughs it up and completes the terrifying move!
Then, to fit in some retail therapy, Bethenny takes Jason jean shopping so he can leave those "potato sack" dungarees behind! Of course, Bethenny enjoys the shopping experience much more than Jason does.
And the highlight of the episode may have been when Bethenny and Jason, along with Bryn, have "bathies" time in the bathtub. It was too cute! Aside from all the "woo-woo" talk. The Hoppy family savored the moment together, knowing Mama and Papa had to fly out for their first overnight trip without baby!
The next day, Jason is taken aback when he steps into a private plane just for him and Bethenny. But what's the first thing on his mind? Joining the 'Mile High Club!' Sadly, he has a feeling Bethenny is already a member…
The couple enjoy a wonderful night out on the town in Montreal, where they do a little shopping and pick up Bethenny's first snow globe in her "new collection." $35.00 later, Jason wonders if letting his 40-year-old wife start a collection of snow globes was a good idea. Probably not.
The pair enjoy a lovely dinner date before heading back to the hotel for a long night sleep without the baby (nine hours to be exact). First thing in the morning they mke their way to the bottling plant, which was the purpose of the trip, to check out all the work that goes into bottling up and shipping out Bethenny's Skinny Girl margaritas!
Bethenny and Jason were stunned, and got a little emotional, when they discovered just how many bottles of margaritas are being produced each day. The plant makes 5,500 cases a day, around 30,000 cases a week! That's incredible.
"You're a great example," Jason said of his business woman wife. "I'm glad you're the mother of my child." Aww!
It was nice to see Bethenny put all the drama behind and just bask in the romantic weekend with her husband. No mental breakdowns this week!

IN THE 1970s, George Lucas became a trailblazer, on the silver screen and on California's map.
He decided to break free from Hollywood's firm grip on the movie business and launch a filmmaking hub in Marin.
Forty years later, Lucas, 68, has changed how movies are made. He also has changed Marin's economic landscape. He is a major employer, an example of responsible development and a generous philanthropist.
His success story's latest chapter started unfolding with the announcement that he's selling his movie-making empire, excluding his Marin ranches, to Walt Disney Co. for $4 billion.
The San Anselmo filmmaker really is retiring from running his empire.
Disney assured Lucasfilm employees, hundreds of whom work or live in Marin, that no changes are in the works. That was good to hear, especially in today's economy. But it was the kind of statement often made when a company is bought out. Both Lucasfilm and Disney pay attention to the bottom line.
In 2005, Lucas moved most of his Marin operation to a new digital campus in San Francisco's Presidio. His empire had outgrown Marin.
Two years ago, Disney abruptly closed its digital animation facility in a hangar at Hamilton. In three years, the operation had grown to 450 workers. They lost their jobs.
Local leaders need to be aware of what has happened and what can happen. There is nothing more important to the county's economy than retaining jobs, especially clean, high-paying ones.
They need to do everything in their power to convince Disney and Lucas to keep those jobs here — and create more.
Robert Eyler, CEO of the Marin Economic Forum, said the deal may mean that Disney might consider coming back to the county. We hope he's right.
The deal brings Lucasfilm, Emeryville-based Pixar and Disney under a giant corporate umbrella. They have shared histories that would seem to make this deal a good fit.
Disney bought Pixar (a Lucasfilm spinoff in 1986) several years ago. Lucasfilm's "Star Wars" and "Indiana Jones" themes are mainstays of Disney's amusement parks and Industrial Light & Magic has been a prominent contributor to many Disney movies.
Lucas is retaining his extensive Marin real estate holdings. Skywalker Ranch and nearby Big Rock Ranch in Lucas Valley are centers of entertainment creativity and ingenuity.
The future of his Grady Ranch property remains up in the air.
Lucas spokeswoman Lynne Hale declared: "No theme parks at Grady!"
That's a relief.
His involvement in Marin is far from over. That is a good thing. He brought fortune and fame to the county he has called home for 40 years.
George Lucas is a local success story of epic proportions. His entertainment empire built on creativity and technology has brought jobs and business to Marin.
We hope Disney builds on that legacy.

Cornea Donation Allows Mother of Five to See Again
MAYWOOD, Ill. – Since she was a child Sarah Mittler knew exactly what she wanted to do − be a wife and mother. She and her husband, Tom, were living their dream of a life complete with five kids, two dogs and a packed schedule of activities, until Sarah's vision started to deteriorate.
Sarah first noticed something was different when trying to read the wall clock at the bottom of the stairs.
"I looked so dirty and cloudy so I cleaned it, but I still couldn't see it," Mittler said.
Things just kept getting worse. She couldn't read a menu when the family went out to dinner and soon had to give up reading all together. She couldn't sign a check or fill out a form for her kids' school. She could no longer help with homework and lost the ability to read labels and recipes.
"Slowly my ability to be a mother and guide my children was being taken away," Mittler said. "I was afraid of going blind. I felt like I had no hope. My eyesight and my dreams were fading."
She made an appointment to see Felipe de Alba, MD, Loyola University Health System ophthalmologist and retinal specialist, where she found out she had Fuchs' corneal dystrophy. This is an uncommon disorder that causes the cornea to swell due to excess fluid, resulting in vision loss.
In most cases the disease progresses slowly. Unfortunately, for Mittler, this wasn't the case.
"We thought it would take a long time for things to get bad, but things started progressing rapidly and I was relying more and more on my kids to do things that I would usually do. It was too dangerous for me to drive and I had trouble with stairs. I started putting cumin on toast instead of cinnamon. I just knew I couldn't live like this anymore," Mittler said. "I went back to the doctor and said, 'I'm a mom and I can't be a mom anymore. You have to help me.' "
Mittler was referred to Charles Bouchard, MD, chair of the Department of Ophthalmology at Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine.
"It's never an easy decision to decide if someone should have surgery, but Sarah and I discussed it and we decided it was time," Bouchard said.
Sarah required a corneal transplant procedure called Descemet Stripping Endothelial Keratoplasty (DSEK). This surgical procedure uses only a very thin portion of the cornea for transplant and has much quicker recovery times and less chance of rejection than a full-thickness corneal transplant, which has been used since 1905.
After the transplant, Mittler was amazed how well she could see even after a short time. Almost all her life she had worn glasses and now she has nearly perfect vision.
"Tom removed the patch from my eyes and all of the sudden I saw him, I saw my kids and I realized it had been such a long time since I actually had seen my family," Mittler said. "Going through something like this really makes you appreciate the small things. All the things as a mom that I complained about, laundry, school forms, when you start to lose them you miss them. I told God I would never complain about them again."
"To do this surgery we have to have cornea tissue from a patient who has died. It's hard to communicate to someone how their donation of a loved one's corneas can really make a huge transformation in someone's life," Bouchard said.
Though the patient may never know the donor's name or story, Bouchard still asks them to write a note saying "thank you" to the family for this amazing gift. The note is then sent anonymously to the family through the Illinois Eye Bank.
"I am so grateful that at an extremely terrible time in their lives someone cared enough to think about me and they don't even know me. Every day I pray about the gift they gave me from their loved one. I ask God to encircle them with His love and peace," Mittler said. "My dream of being a mom – the disease started to take that away, but they gave it back to me. What they did – it takes my breath away."
Loyola University Health System will hold a special event on April 18, honoring donors and families of donors who have donated organs through the Gift of Hope program. During the event Sarah Mittler will read a poem. The event will be held from 4-6 p.m. in the Galvin Memorial Chapel located on the main medical campus in Maywood, Ill.
For media inquiries, please contact Evie Polsley at firstname.lastname@example.com or call (708) 216-5313 or (708) 417-5100.

MOONLIGHT!!! I just watched the whole season over again this past week. I miss it dearly and I think it is so true when I hear people say that it was "ahead of its time." If it had come out a couple years later, I bet the ratings would be very high, and they still can be if it is brought back! ❤
sandy says:
dirty sexy money for sure. i just discovered it this summer and finsihed all the season over the course of a week! its a complete addiction but the show was just amazing and just getting started! DIRTY SEXY MONEY needs to be brought back
beth says:

patricia says:
bryana says:
PLEASE! i would love it if moonlight was brought back! my family and friends also follow through with it, and we miss it. there are 32 people that i know and i am their words, and they would all love to see moonlight again, even if it means repeats, but new episodes would be great!
kate says:
PUSHING DAISIES undoubtedly.
Ash says:
Moonlight fan says:
MOONLIGHT …. I wish they would bring it back.
Excellent show – Should never have been canceled.
judyALBERT says:
Moonlight cancelled before its time award .. PCA award …Saturn award …
The series cries for a movie let's hope WB ad CW thinks so too ..
Deb F. says:
Ghost Whisperer! No! I didn't know it was canceled! And I liked Ugly Betty, too! Network execs don't know what the viewers like!
MariaMoonlight says:
Moonlight of course.. it did not deserve to be canceled. My heart will never give up on it coming back but then I believe in miracles.
Judy says:
MOONLIGHT!!!! CBS was soooo stupid, they were ahead of the trend and blew it. Then there was Jerico, another CBS screw up.
Goof says:
How could they forget Flash Forward? There is a HUGE fan effort to try to bring that show back!!!
Pete says:
Wow, am I the only one pissed that they cancelled Heroes? Really, Ugly Betty? That show sucked. Why not complain that they continue to air crap and cancel the good shows.
Ann43 says:
Misty, you are so right. The fans have not given up. I know for a fact that there are a huge amount of new fans than when it first aired thanks to SyFy, Chiller and the CW. All these new fans are the young Vampire Diaries and Twilight fans. They want to know when season 2 will air. Remakes never make it. It's proven time and time again whenever they try to remake a classic tv series. So, Alex may be available sooner than later. Let's keep writing in to WB and showing our support. Moonlight must have been something special if it is still being talked about and making new fans after two years.
cristina says:
Don't understand why they cancelled Moonlight, The Forgotten,New Amsterdam,Dirty Sexy Money, Ugly Betty, and Journeyman. These shows were great. It had great story and very good acting. Now we are stuck with a lot of reality garbage.
Rebecca says:
Ghost Whisperer and what sucks is I didn't even know it was canceled.
BECKY says:
dirty sexy money
Misty says:
Moonlight is my all time favorite show! I'm still sad and angry that it was cancelled! Although Alex O'Loughlin has signed on to do Hawaii Five-0, the fans shouldn't give up on Moonlight altogether! There are still a lot of Moonlight fans writing in to try to get a Moonlight Movie! Moonlight won the People's Choice Award in 2008, the fans loved Moonlight as a series, how about a big screen movie? VSRRR!
amr30 says:
24-should have never been cancelled in the first place.
Sunshine says:
MOONLIGHT..I see all the Episodes .But Alex get a new Show Hawaii 5-0. So I got no Hope Moonlight is comming back.
Marsha says:
I LOVED Pushing Daisies. And I watch Moonlight any chance I can find it. But Alex has moved onto Hawaii 50, so the chances of Moonlight coming back would seem to be nil.
Debbie G. says:
How about John Doe?
Jamie says:
How about bringing back Firefly? (Or at least making a few more movies like "Serenity"…)

Fanconi anemia is a blood disorder in which the bone marrow doesn't make enough blood cells or makes abnormal types of blood cells. Bone marrow is the spongy material inside bones that produces white and red blood cells and platelets. Red blood cells carry oxygen through the body, and white blood cells help fight infection; platelets help with clotting. All these cells die after a certain amount of time and constantly need to be replaced.
Fanconi anemia is a genetic condition. That means it runs in families—it is passed from generation to generation. Most people with Fanconi anemia are diagnosed between ages 2 and 15 years old. People who have this form of anemia may only live for 20 to 30 years. But, medical advances are making better treatment possible.
Having Fanconi anemia increases the risk for certain types of cancer. For example, about one in 10 with this condition will develop leukemia. As children with this type of anemia grow into adults, they are at increased risk for other cancers, such as tumors in the mouth or esophagus; women are at greater risk for reproductive organ cancers.
Thirteen genes have been linked to the disease. If one of your parents had Fanconi anemia, you might carry the gene and could pass it on to your children even if you don't have the condition. About one in 300 people is a carrier of the Fanconi anemia gene. Two groups of people, Ashkenazi Jews and Afrikaners, have a much higher risk of developing the disorder.
These are possible symptoms of Fanconi anemia:
Birth defects involving the hands, feet, skeleton, spine, vision, or hearing
Low birth weight
Difficulty eating
Lack of desire to eat
Learning disabilities
Delayed or slowed growth
Other symptoms may appear later. For example, women with Fanconi anemia may menstruate later than their peers and have difficulty getting pregnant or carrying a child to term, or they may begin menopause early.
Fanconi anemia may lead to:
Delayed growth or development
Infection, especially pneumonia, chickenpox, and hepatitis
Digestive problems
Certain cancers
Fanconi anemia usually is not diagnosed at birth, although children are born with it. A diagnosis is often made based on:
