AGR Tools, Inc. (AGRT.OB) Announces Expansion of Distribution Network into the Tennessee Market
AGR Tools, Inc., a major supplier of diamond tools and adhesives, recently announced that the company has expanded its distribution network into Nashville and the Middle Tennessee markets, a multimillion dollar diamond tool market.
Representing an important step in achieving the expansion objectives the company has outlined for 2009, this new territory adds to AGR's growing list of distribution centers throughout North America, which now totals 22 distribution outlets in 15 states and provinces in the United States and Canada. AGR is the only major manufacturer of diamond tools that markets and distributes its products directly to customers in the $8 billion North American diamond tool market.
In addition, with a population of approximately two million people, this expansion into the Tennessee market will also position the company to take advantage of the large amount of government infrastructure spending in the state.
Rock Rutherford, chief executive officer of AGR Tools, Inc., stated, "As our distribution network continues to grow, that goal is becoming more and more a reality."

Answer a Question with a Question
Do you like pie?
Three guys walk into a hotel, and they're going to split the cost of a room. The room is $30. They each kick in $10 and head up to their room. The manager gets wind of it and tells the clerk the room is only $25. He hands five $1 bills to the bell hop and tells him to go refund the guys' money. On the way up to the room, the bell hop gets to thinking, as bell hops are wont to do, and says to himself, "No way can three guys split $5, I'm going to help out." He stuffs $2 in his pocket, knocks on the door, gives each guy back a buck and heads back downstairs to the desk, glowing in the warmth of a job well done. So now each guy has paid $9. $9 times 3 is $27 plus the two the bell hop stole—only $29! Where is the other buck?
Could it be you must subtract the $2 in the bellhop's pocket rather than add it?
Do you really want to know the answer?
Did you know that Arty chokes two for a pound?
Do they serve artichokes at cheap hotels?
Has anyone ever choked Arty for an artichoke?
Who is Arty anyways?
Is there an answer to that question?
Could this person possibly be the answer?
Perhaps "she" choked Arty for his removal of OS-X?
Wasn't Art Vandelay one of George Costanza's aliases in Seinfeld?
Didn't it also end up being the name of the judge who sentenced them in the series finally?
What happened to George anyway?
Did he go to jail for a year with Jerry, Elaine and Cramer?

Missouri welcomes back Kim Anderson
The University of Missouri held a news conference to introduce new men's basketball coach Kim Anderson.
COLUMBIA, Mo. - The University of Missouri held a news conference to introduce new Men's Basketball Coach Kim Anderson.
The MU Board of Curators made the announcement on Anderson's hire Monday.
Anderson started by thanking his family at the University of Central Missouri, stating, "I am Missouri through and through."
Anderson addressed critics by acknowledging his age, "all of these things I've learned in the past 24 hours...apparently I'm old."
He also spoke of recruiting abilities and how experience has prepared him for the coaching job at Mizzou.
"We're going to recruit one of the best coaching staffs possible. This is going to be rooted in our student athletes."
Anderson said working at UCM has prepared him for the job, stating, "this is a dream."
When asked about the impact of mentor and former Coach Norm Stewart on his career, Anderson said, "He taught me so many things, not just basketball. He taught me how to survive."
Anderson said the timing was finally right for him to come to Mizzou.
"I wouldn't have hired me in 1999. There were still a lot of things I needed to learn. Being an alum of the college that you're coaching says a lot about the quality of education at Mizzou."
Anderson said he will bring an aggressive style of coaching to his players at Missouri.
"I really want to play aggressive, hard-nosed, energized-style basketball. I try to have my teams play the way I played."
UPDATE: ABC 17 Video Features on Kim Anderson
Anderson entertains Missouri crowd, as he's welcomed back.
Rosburg looks forward to working with Anderson again.
Andersons, Alden reflect on Mizzou coaching search.

No Time to Waste: Executive Summary and Blueprint
California has been well served by its water supply system, but it has been more than 30 years since improvements were made on the scale required to keep pace with the state's growing population and changing water needs.
That dynamic must end. Without significant new investments in our statewide infrastructure starting now, it will be increasingly difficult and expensive for California to support both a healthy environment and a strong economy in future years.
ACWA has called together local water leaders from throughout the state to craft an action plan for meeting California's diverse water supply needs in the coming decades. This Blueprint is the result of that effort. It includes a list of actions, summarized below, that collectively will take us a long way toward meeting that goal.
California cannot just conserve its way or transfer its way or build its way to a secure water future. Indeed, it will take a diverse mix of programs and projects that incorporate infrastructure improvements, water use
efficiency, water recycling, desalination, voluntary water transfers and a variety of other sound water management techniques to provide the level of flexibility and reliability required. ACWA's Blueprint is built on that mix of strategies, and draws on years of planning and study at the federal, state and local levels. It complements ongoing local initiatives and promotes regional solutions that will play an increasingly critical role in our future.
ACWA calls on policy leaders and lawmakers at all levels to embrace this Blueprint and begin taking action today to address California's water future.

In Stata, the output of every estimation command is accompanied with
the default test that this coefficient is equal to zero (which is
sensible for most slopes and correlations, although may not be so
sensible for variances). Moreover, every coefficient can be tested
with -test- command. Its syntax is daunting for a beginner, but you'd
start appreciating it very quickly as you move from your MPlus or
LISREL or MLWin experience.
If you gave an example of your syntax (that's what FAQ very strongly
suggests) and your output, we could help with the specific -test-

If Peyton says it, then it's true.
I love Peyton Manning. It's just inspiring to watch someone as good at something as he is at football. I'd watch someone pull weeds if they were as good at pulling weeds as Peyton is at playing quarterback.
That being said, hopefully he sucks this sunday, and Ed Reed has two pick-sixes.

Dear Australia, it's a tricky subject, but I believe it is time to talk about the birds and the bees and their role in our fitness.
After all, anyone who cares about their performance at work and on the sporting field must also wonder about whether they are fit for other less-commonly discussed physical activities.
Yes, I am talking about sex fitness, and to that end I have put together a number of exercises that could help to boost your performance where it really counts.
Get cardiovascular fit
A High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) session is a great start to building up the extra stamina you may need to call on for that hot new partner you've just stated seeing. There are many ways to design a HIIT session, but try this:
Sprint 100metres at 100 per cent intensity, then walk back to your starting point. Repeat 10 times.
To increase the intensity of your cardio sessions, you can also run the stairs, use the gym rower, or jump some rope.
Increase your flexibility
You don't have to be flexible like a gold medal winning gymnast from Romania, but flexible bodies are obviously an asset in this particular realm. Stretch your quadriceps, hamstrings, and lower back on a daily basis, to help expand your romantic horizons.
Being flexible also promotes good circulation throughout the body. That means increased blood flow to where it counts. For men and women, yoga, pilates, or a home stretching program is just the trick.
Upper body fitness
Guys, I'm not saying you need to be Arnie massive, but some strength and tone in the upper body is what makes us look manly, and is essential to going the distance when required. And let's face it - women like biceps.
Playing Nintendo while performing beer curls all week won't cut it, but good ole fashioned pull-ups are just the trick. Too tough? Perform push ups, lat-pull downs, and shoulder presses.
There are many resources on the internet covering strength and hypertrophy sessions for your arms. Do your research, and remember good form, intensity, and tempo to build bigger arms.
Firm behind
We all want to look smooth and toned where it counts when we're bearing it all, and a bit of strength at the rear end can also boost your performance.
Sure, your cardio sessions will help you here, but you will ensure better shape by introducing some weight bearing exercises. Squats, lunges, and deadlifts will help you tone up big time.
Kegel exercises
Man or woman, Kegel exercises can increase control by strengthening the pelvic floor. Do a little research on 'How to Kegel'. Contract your muscles for 10 seconds... relax for 10 seconds. Repeat and increase the number of repetitions day by day, week by week. The beauty is you can perform Kegel exercises anywhere at any time.
Be strong, be safe and most importantly, have fun.
Do you have any favourite exercises for boosting your performance? (Please keep it clean).

How to Make All-Natural DIY Cleaning Solutions — and Save Money
Photo By: Geoffrey Hodgdon ©Charalambous Andreas

Photo By: Brian Kellogg ©Kerrie Kelly
The Solution to Chemical-Free Solutions
Between mold, soap scum, toilet rings and grout stains, bathrooms can be notoriously tough to clean (ever wonder why so much of the cleaning aisle is devoted to bathroom products?). But the thought of dousing tubs and tile with chemicals makes some people uneasy about the potential effects on their household health. The solution? Take a page from your grandmother's book and raid your pantry and medicine cabinet for basic staples that get the job done without toxic fumes or harsh compounds. Bonus: You'll save money by going the natural route.
Mirrors and Glass
Toss that bottle of bright blue cleaner and wipe mirrors and glass surfaces down with a solution of one part white vinegar to one part water instead. Use a microfiber cloth or even a sheet of newspaper (really!) to avoid streaks and residue. This works to keep faucets and fixtures shining clean as well. Don't worry about the vinegar smell; it will fade quickly.
Tub, Sink and Shower
Just a few simple ingredients and five minutes' effort, and you'll have your own custom batch of spray-on cleaner. Combine 1-1/2 cups white vinegar, 1-1/2 cups water and 3/4 cup hydrogen peroxide. If you want to scent the mixture, add the essential oil of your choice: lemon, lavender, eucalyptus or another aroma. To combat tenacious soap scum, stir together equal parts white vinegar and dish soap, then spray on and allow to soak for a few minutes before scrubbing and rinsing.
If your tile needs only a light cleaning, simply rub on baking soda with a damp sponge and rinse with water. For grungier jobs, try this homemade scrub: Mix a generous 3/4 cup baking soda with 1/4 cup dish soap or castile soap (usually available at organic markets) to make a paste. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons water, just enough to reach pouring consistency. Apply with a damp sponge and rinse thoroughly. If you like, add a few drops of tea tree oil, which has antibacterial properties that can prevent mold and mildew growth.
Blend two parts borax powder with one part lemon juice and add the mixture to your toilet bowl. Scrub after a few minutes to remove stubborn stains. You can also dump in a cup of borax powder, let stand overnight and scrub in the morning.
Grout and Caulk
To treat mildew, thoroughly spray the affected areas with a solution of one part hydrogen peroxide to two parts water. Allow to sit at least one hour before scrubbing (a toothbrush works well) and rinsing. If your grout is old or chipping, you may want to do a patch test to guard against damage before you treat your entire surface.
If the thought of clog-eating chemicals gives you pause, try this remedy for a sluggish drain: Pour in 1 cup baking soda, then follow with two cups white vinegar. The fizzing and bubbling should help loosen the blockage. Let stand for 15 to 20 minutes before flushing with warm water. This is also a good way to deodorize a smelly drain.

Sun News Network Viewership Lags On First Anniversary, Controversies Continue
TORONTO - They launched with great fanfare, vowing to deliver a viewing experience no other Canadian broadcaster dared to put on the air.
Yet exactly a year after it went live, media observers and viewership figures suggest Sun News Network, which promised 'hard news and straight talk,' is lagging behind its competitors.
Data obtained by The Canadian Press from a source at another network and confirmed by independent ratings agency BBM Canada, shows Sun News trailing the pack when "all day" English audience figures — calculated between 2 a.m. and 2 a.m. — were compared for news networks between Aug. 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012.
CBC News Network drew 1.4 per cent of viewers, U.S. news network CNN took 0.9 per cent, CTV News Channel attracted 0.8 per cent and Sun News brought in 0.1 per cent.
Sun News declined a request for an interview and viewership data.
"It began with a bit of a bang but it seems to be a little less noisy now than it once was," Jeffrey Dvorkin, the director of the University of Toronto's journalism program, said of the network's share of the audience.
"I think the novelty is wearing off a little bit."
According to Dvorkin, a quick glance at the data across the board is all it takes to see that the all-day news model isn't faring as well as networks might have hoped and the repetitive nature of the constant news flow could be what turns some viewers off.
But why is Sun News, once dubbed "Fox News North" bringing up the rear? A look at the core audience it strives to attract might offer part of the answer.
"There is always in every audience, whether it's in the U.S., Canada or any other country, a core of older white males who are chronically pissed off. That's who Fox News appeals to and I assume that Sun Media was looking to tap into that as well," said Dvorkin.
"But we may not have that same demographic journalistically and in broadcasting terms in Canada as in the United States. I guess we're just not that angry."
That's not to say the network owned by media giant Quebecor is without fans.
Various right-leaning blogs have praised the network for its approach and it has gained more than 12,000 "likes" on its Facebook page.
And there is no doubt the network is carving a distinctive niche for itself.
When it first launched, network officials said Sun News would balance what was seen as a "lefty bias" in Canada's traditional media. Quebecor CEO Pierre Karl Peladeau had even argued that other Canadian news networks were boring.
That aggressive tone continues to be one of the network's defining features. But to some observers it's cause for concern.
"It's not news, it's merely right-wing propaganda," said Tim Knight, who writes a regular column on media matters for Huffington Post Canada and has reviewed Sun News in the past.
The talk-based format employed by the network, which often brings reporters – including from the Sun newspaper chain – into the studio to discuss a story, could be doing much to diminish ratings, said another observer.
"They are so high on the ranting and the opinion that it is difficult to kind of wade through that and find what should be fair and balanced," said Janice Neil, a Ryerson journalism professor and editor-in-chief of the Canadian Journalism Project at J-Source.ca.
"They are basing most of their material on dragging people into the studio and the guests that they have tend to be very favourable to Sun."
Two key incidents over the course of its first year really hurt the network's credibility, said Neil.
The first was when an interview between "Canada Live" host Krista Erickson and Quebec-born dancer Margie Gillis went viral after Erickson quizzed Gillis about whether it was appropriate that she receive government grants to support her dance work. The segment from the afternoon news show drew a record number of complaints from viewers who felt Erickson was being unfair, but the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council eventually ruled the "aggressive" interview was acceptable.
The second was a citizenship reaffirmation ceremony broadcast from the network's studios during Citizenship Week last fall in which bureaucrats posed as new Canadians when not enough newly naturalized Canucks showed up for the shoot. The two Sun News co-hosts who referred to the "new Canadians'' in the studio said they were unaware of the snafu at the time.
"In PR if you believe that there's no such thing as bad news, then certainly they got lots and lots of eyeballs," said Neil. "But certainly in terms of journalistic integrity, I think there are a number of instances where they just don't bring the same credibility."
Sun News also faces a distribution hurdle. It isn't classified as a mandatory channel – as CBC and CTV's news networks are – which means it's harder to find on the dial and those with basic cable packages don't get it at all.
Nonetheless, despite their growing pains, Neil believes Sun News could potentially enrich the Canadian media landscape over time if they polished their product.
"There would be lots of room for Sun News to have informed debate," she said. "But they're out to prove their point as opposed to discover the argument…I would like to see them doing better."
* * *
In February, The Canadian Press revealed that six federal bureaucrats were drafted to pose as new Canadians for a citizenship reaffirmation ceremony broadcast on the Sun News network, an event requested by Immigration Minister Jason Kenney's office.
The segment begins with Sun News anchors Pat Bolland and Alex Pierson, who introduce the reaffirmation ceremony. "Ten new Canadians are taking their oath right now, here, at our Sun News studio in Toronto," says Pierson.
Citizenship Judge Aris Babikian opens the ceremony and speaks about the meaning of citizenship in Canada.
"Citizenship is much more than a list of things we are allowed to do," Babikian says.
"It is a covenant between indivduals and the country they share."
"By reciting the oath, you are telling your neighbours, colleagues and friends, that you want to join them in creating something great," the judge continues.
"This is not a promise to be entered into lightly or for selfish reasons," the judge says.
Judge Babikian then asks the assembled to reaffirm the oath of citizenship.
Raising their hands, the group repeats after the judge: "I swear that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Queen of Canada, Her Heirs and Successors.."
"..and that I will faithfully observe the laws of Canada and fulfil my duties as a Canadian citizen."
The group then repeats the oath in French.
Judge Babikan leads the group in an off-key rendition of O Canada.
The judge then gives a certificate to each of the 10 'new' Canadians. Says host Alex Pierson: "And congratulations to all the new Canadians here. Ten of you here at Sun News Network. Finally, Canadian citizens. Wonderful to have you."

DNA molecules can be concentrated in a narrow region of a nanochannel when driven electrokinetically in submillimolar salt solutions. Transport experiments and theoretical modeling reveal the interplay of electrophoresis, electro-osmosis, and the unique statistical properties of confined polymers that lead to DNA aggregation. A finite conductance through the bulk of the device also plays a crucial role by influencing the electric fields in the nanochannel. We build on this understanding by demonstrating how a nanofluidic device with integrated electrodes can preconcentrate DNA at selected locations and at physiological salt concentrations that are relevant to lab-on-a-chip applications.

The new Pavilion portico at The Oval Cricket Ground has transformed the entrance and forecourt area, previously occupied by turnstiles and concessions. At the front, the Hobbs Gate designed by Louis de Siossons have been placed on the axis with the new portico. The portico features column capitals modelled upon the Prince of Wales's three feather badge, to symbolise the new formal entrance to the home of Surrey Cricket Club which shares the royal three feather badge. Urns surmount the gate piers, their design is based on the design of that which holds the ashes of the bails that were burned at the end of the fateful 1882 match. Further models of this urn appear on the railing on either side (which double up on match days as additional gates) and on top of the main portico.
The Oval is one of the oldest and most important cricket grounds in Britain. It is where the first "Ashes" test match was played in 1882 when England lost against Australia for the first time on their own soil. The new pavilion portico is a long overdue transformation that provides a superb new main entrance worthy of this world famous ground.
Received a Georgian Group Architectural Awards 2013 Commendation in the category of New Building in the Classical Tradition. At RICS London Awards 2015 received Highly Commended award in Tourism & Leisure category. In the US at the Congress for the New Urbanism Charter Awards, received a Merit award.

Brangelina quash rumours of rocky relationship
Subscribe to Filmibeat
Wearing tight leather strapless dress and killer heels, Jolie held Pitt close, debunking rumours of any tension over the past few months. Meanwhile, director Quentin Tarantino, who helmed Inglourious Basterds, revealed that Pitt has reached the zenith of his career and is no more a 'pretty boy.'
"What's really cool about Brad right now is that the pretty boy is gone. He's a man now. He can bear the weight. Brad is at the zenith of his iconicness," he said.

Half way along the south coast of Menorca you will find a beach and water sports haven with over 3 miles of uninterrupted golden sand, known as Son Bou Beach, Menorca, upon which the resort of San Jaime stands. A Son Bou holiday home places you on the largest beach in the whole of Menorca, with great views all down its course, due to the fact there are no large hotels, just low lying, traditional villas in Son Bou, hidden among the pines and dunes.
If you take accommodation in Son Bou or San Jaime, you will undoubtedly feel the sand between your toes for a large proportion of your holiday. The fine golden sand beaches of the area could have been designed for postcards, with the gently sloping sands slipping gently into the rich blue of the Mediterranean, providing safe and warm waters for children to swim in. There is a clear flag system along the beach to alert you to currents in the area, but information on the system will be published in the resort, and in many of the self catering villas in Son Bou and San Jaime. Son Bou Beach is known as a naturist beach and the further you walk down it from accommodation in Son Bou, the fewer clothes are worn.
A self catering Son Bou apartment or villa acts as a great base for water sports too. Taking accommodation on Son Bou Beach means that you can check water conditions as soon as you rise from your bed, and rush down to the beach for windsurfing, water-skiing, jet skiing or sailing, or simply leave your Son Bou holiday home and head to one of the vibrant little beach bars which line the beach.
If you walk eastward from accommodation in Son Bou or San Jaime, you will eventually reach the Cap de Penyes, an ancient village of caves carved out of the headland. Also found here are the remains of a fortified village and the Christian Basilica of Ses Canessies, making a truly fascinating place to visit from a Son Bou holiday home.
An apartment in San Jaime, Menorca is ideal for family holidays. Everything you could require to have a comfortable family holiday is provided in the development, including supermarkets, restaurants, a medical centre and the San Jamie Club Water Park for children.
Taking a slightly more secluded villa in Son Bou, away from the commercial centre of San Jaime gives you a little extra privacy, and allows you to pick your spot on the beach, away from the crowds or close to a bar or water sports centre, depending on your whims when you wake up in your Son Bou holiday home!
Whenever you feel like escaping to a self catering Son Bou villa or a self catering apartment in San Jaime, the weather will be waiting for you. All year round, the sun shines (over 300 sunny days every year), with temperatures somewhere between 20˚C (January) and up to 40˚C (July and August).
A self catering Son Bou villa or apartment in San Jaime is only half an hour from Mahon Airport (MAH), which receives direct flights from the UK provided by easyJet and Monarch.

Mice Advice
Have a new house. Have had mice in the basement, none on the main floor. I know how to catch and kill mice but I'm more interested in keeping them out in the first place. I've spent many hours searching and sealing every opening I can possibly find, down to a 1/16", including doors, windows, tops of sill plates, under baseboards, pipe and wiring feed throughs. I'm out of ideas. They're still getting in. Does anyone have any tips or suggestions as to how to locate their entrance/exits? Thanks
Are they gaining access from a higher point?
I don't think so. If they were, I think we'd see them in the house. I've tried to seal off any wires coming from the main floor to the basement. There aren't many though. I've thought about that, but am at a loss as to where.
Is the house new? How long have you been there? You could have a gang of mice in the basement that are stuck there now that it's been sealed up.
You may want to look at any vents that go out of the house too. They can get in through the roof and find passage to the basement...especially if the house is older.
I had a problem with mice a couple of years ago.
To find where they are coming in, look for debris from where they are chewing through, such as sawdust, chewed up insulation, and in my case bird seed shells.
Mine were crawling between the gap at the bottom of my old brick veneer siding and then chewing through the original wood lap siding, insulation and then the inside wall.
I had the old veneer removed and new siding installed. A new nailer was installed at the botom however there was still a gap, as small as 1/4" to about 1/2".
I used copper mesh to stuff the gap around the entire house, around dryer vents, doorways, utility access, cable tv openings.
Mice don't like the copper so they leave it alone.
In 3 years since I completed the job, No Mice!
It is a pain to do, but IMHO well worth it.
I happened to mention my problem to one of our vendors who we work with on bird control for commercial roofs and hooked me up with the following.
Check the linky!! :thumbup:
Thanks for the responses. The house is new. We moved in in May, but didn't notice the activity until the weather got cooler. (Northeast Ohio). Its a wood frame house with OSB sheathing, Tyvek and vinyl siding except the lower front which is stone. I've checked around the outside for signs of entry including after a fresh snow looking for footprints. Nothing. There is a raised deck across the back so there was no snow to check under it. I've already captured at least 12-14, not all at once, so Idon't think they're holdovers from the construction phase. I keep thinking I'm overlooking an obvious entry. I've sealed the electrical coming in, cable/phone, heat pump lines, dryer vent, exterior water and electrical outlets, door and window frames and baseboards. I'm out of ideas. I was hoping someone would suggest a way to somehow pressurize the basement so I could check around the exterior or something radical like that. Maybe a big bonfire in the basement and I could walk around looking for smoke coming out!!!:wink:
Thought I might just camp out down there some night with my shotgun like Elmer Fudd.
Anyway, I'd appreciate it if you would keep the ideas coming. I'll check out that website.
how about paints...
just an idea from nowhere, how about, lay down a bunch of small boards everywhere with colorful paint inside, then put some food there, when the mice steps though it for the food, you may be able to find out where they walking around the basement base on the small paint steps... obviously, the areas with most steps could be the areas of entry/exit....
if nothing work, consider have one or two cats...
Actually The cat thing isn't that far out in left field.
That's partially how we figured out where they were. The cats would sit in the middle of the kitchen floor staring at one section of base cabinets.
I looked on the toe kick and found where the mice were crawing over the edge. They shed, and left a trail of hair over the wood edge.
So I figured they must be getting in somewhere on that side of the house. Sure enough, trail was on the wall directly behind the cabinet the cats were staring at. :thumbup:
Thanks again for the responses. I spent some time today looking around in the attic for any entrances or signs of mice, but found nothing. Kuporing, I don't think the paint idea is practical since it will dry before the mice cross it. I thought about doing something like that with flour, but I'm not keen on the mess it will make. I may try it.
Keep the suggestions coming if you think of any.
ice Advice
Flour will work is you are patient and can stand the mess (vacuums up easily when dry).
I had a problem with my outside bird feeders (suburban townhouse). Something was flipping them, causing damage at night. I suspected deer or racoons. The flour proved it was a bear. - Damage for a night or two before it disappeared or hibranated and has not been back for over a year.
It outside, so inside it can locate the areas of frequent activity and possible any entry points. - Cheap too!!!
I feel for you
I had mice earlier in the fall and still have the house and garage baited. I think what you've done so far sounds right. Have you checked weatherstripping? Mine seemed to have come in through my backdoor (cheeky little :censored:). There is a vinyl strip at the bottom of the screen door and I think they just walked right in when I had the main door open to allow air through the screen or whatever.
Also found out recently they can fit through holes the size of pens.
If you want to get CSI about it, go and buy a black light from a pet store. Urine trails would show up (black lights are used to find pet accidents) and maybe you could find out what routes they are taking. I was told they will go outside to find water (if they can't find it in the house) daily so being the dirty creeps they are you may find the urine trail.
Dusty: Thanks. Hadn't thought of the black light. I have one. I have checked all the weather stripping, door and window seals. We had a light snow last night. I trapped one last night. This morning I went all around the house, including the deck and the roof ( as best I could from the ground) and found no tracks whatsoever. The mouse last night may have already been inside. I'm starting to think that as Wease suggested maybe they got in last summer and the ones I'm trapping now are offspring. I know I've trapped more than what could have possibly been there last summer. On the other hand I don't know what food or water they would have found down there and we've never seen any sign of them upstairs. Very frustrating.:furious:
I vote for the Elmer Fudd method!! :thumbsup:
The mice I had were comitting suicide in my laundry tub. (Cheap mouse trap) They were climbing up the mop handle, which happened to be leaning against the tub, and when the wash water would empty they were trapped and EEEK!!... I had a dead mouse...then two...then three. I caught the remainder 5 with traps, when I discovered they found their way upstairs. I agree with the idea that these are offspring as well. Finding their central hub would be key. Maybe borrowing a cat would be a short term investment to the solution, since buying one would mean keeping it once the varmants were gone!
My neighbours now think I scared them over to their home, since they are now dealing with mice also. :whistling2: "I know nothing!"
Good Luck, We're here for moral support if nothing else!:thumbup:
if there is no source of food and water in the basement, and there still large activities going on... there is high chance there is an entry you still cannot locate... I know mice can eat anything... like grasses... but they should be organic...etc... it is really difficult for you to try to locate the entry/exit visually by going around the building considered it only take 1 inch by 1 inch or less for a mice to go in... you need to think about some more proactive approach... why don't you try the flour approach you thought about, may even use some more colorful chalks for renovation... you may be able to discover some area you never thought of... I am also those who fear mice the most... if it were me... I would do anything to get rid of them... including raising cats...
There multiplying
Recently I had the same problem. I had thought the same as you are thinking {coming in from outside} I tried traps and yes I caught multiples of the little buggars! I bought the spray foam and foamed every in/outlet where they might be coming in I could find Still NO cigar in getting rid of them. Down to my very last bit of patience with this situation I went the extreme route, I bought several boxes of decon at the local grocery store and set them out. Yes I had dead carcuses the very next day and believe me they do not smell very good. They are not hard to find just follow your nose :laughing: . BUT ..... within four days there were no more sign of the little creeps. My home has been mouse free for a month now. As it turns out they were a breeding colony located in my air return duct to my furnace, not coming in from outside at all. One thing to keep in mind, if you set decon out make sure that any pets you may have can not get to it, it will make them seriously ill or may even kill them.

Telecom's ShowMeTV should cut another chink in Sky Television's armour built up over 25 years of being a pay television monopoly.
By mid-year the venture looks sure to be on screens - which is more than some of Telecom's other TV ventures achieved.
But in the medium term, ShowMeTV will be another niche player and not the major force in television that some predict. Sky TV is unlikely to fall in a hurry.
The initial $20 million investment by Telecom is small compared with the money spent by Sky TV on content. And although online content does not need to be scheduled like linear channels, Telecom needs expertise on what New Zealanders want to watch, which leads to expectations that it will be linked to overseas online media organisations.
Many hope such a relationship will bring Netflix to New Zealand but Telecom is talking to other content suppliers, which would be unlikely under a permanent partnership with Netflix.
Telecom has made previous forays into media and come unstuck.
There was First TV in the mid-1990s - an attempt to roll out a Saturn-style pay TV venture in Auckland and Wellington.
After that came to a close the former head of Telecom's video unit, Philip King, led a video development unit from 2005 to 2007. That venture was also disbanded.
In 2009 Telecom got caught up as an onseller for TiVo, a half-hearted arrangement where the set-top boxes could be bought only at Telecom outlets.
Then there was its troubled expedition into the YahooXtra website.
Telecom has not worked well in media, but maybe ShowMeTV will be different.
The argument at Telecom - or Spark as it is to be rebranded - is that previous moves into internet TV had proved ill-timed and it was best that they withdrew, said Simon Hoegsbro, the Telecom executive heading ShowMeTV.
The ShowMeTV service does not have the capital cost of expenditure on new networks or set-top boxes.
Technology is one thing but Microsoft founder Bill Gates was the first of many business entrepreneurs to acknowledge that "content is king".
People want to be entertained no matter what the technology.
As services like Google TV explode, ShowMeTV faces a big task in securing content consumers will pay to see.
Sky TV and free-to-air broadcasters have focused on formal exclusive output deals with Hollywood studios - honed by their status as big programme buyers.
Web-based firms such as Netflix and - eventually - ShowMeTV are less reliant on exclusive deals. But they will still need some top-end content to lure customers.
Netflix in the United States has made its name with non-exclusive content which has become so successful it is able to commission its own programmes - such as the drama House of Cards.
It is early days for ShowMeTV and its success is linked to the takeoff of UItra Fast Broadband.
But as it stands, prospective customers can only guess if ShowMeTV will be better than the offering on similar services such as Quickflix.
Given Telecom's history as a half-hearted player in the television market, it may be that there will be links with other online players.
ShowMeTV will spur Sky's expansion away from services offering linear channels and on to the internet.
Sky has been deft at delaying investments in pay-as-you-go internet TV.
If Telecom makes an investment it may be forced to try harder.
With more competition forcing Sky to work harder in New Zealand to catch up on the online services available elsewhere, consumers willing to pay will not be forced to take pirated content.

Many New Englanders are familiar with the term "red tide," but what is it, really? Is it as threatening as it seems? Does it affect the way we fish and eat seafood?
The Bad News:
Yes, red tide is harmful. It is often called a harmful algal bloom (HAB). Basically, single-cell microscopic algae called phytoplankton, or more specifically, a species of phytoplankton called dinoflagellates, contain photosynthetic pigments that create the discoloration seen in the water during a bloom. When red tide is in full effect, the algae in the blooms contain harmful neurotoxins. The red tide's algae is not harmful if swimming near it, but it is harmful when ingested in concentrated amounts. So how does this happen? Well, shellfish love algae. Since shellfish (and some carnivorous snails) eat this contaminated algae, and store the neurotoxins in their digestive tracts, the shellfish become toxic. When humans eat them, that toxicity gets into the body and they can fall victim to Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning (PSP) that is extremely dangerous and sometimes lethal.
The Good News:
1. Red tide only affects shellfish, so fishermen do not need to worry about their catch being negatively affected. You cannot get PSP from swimming or being near the HABs.
2. The red tide's algae blooms are intently monitored by The Division of Marine Fisheries between early spring and late fall, when the blooms most often occur, and restaurants and markets use their alerts to make sure patrons receive safe snails and shellfish. (The HABs tend to begin in mid-April and peak in June, with an occasional second bloom peak in the beginning of the fall, as well.) This means that eating shellfish from reputable restaurants or buying it from markets is perfectly safe, because their shellfish is taken from areas that are not affected by red tide. However, people who harvest their own shellfish should be extremely cautious during an outbreak of red tide, and never get their shellfish from restricted areas.
Remember, there is no way to cook out the harmful neurotoxins that the algae produce. If shellfish is in a red tide zone, it is simply not safe.
Overall, red tide does not have to hinder your love of shellfish or fishing! It is important to stay vigilant during a bloom of red tide … to keep an eye on the DMF's alerts, as well as the waters in which you fish and dig.

How To Recover From 9 Major Screwups
Here are some ways to salvage your career from a major screwup.
1- Overpromising
You overpromised and now your client is furious. You missed an important deadline and your colleagues or customers are annoyed. You made commitments on someone else's behalf that made that person look incompetent and your customers are losing patience with the entire company.
How to fix it: Assess the damage before facing the client or your boss, but make sure they hear about it from you , not someone else. Accept responsibility and avoid being defensive. Focus on correcting the error and getting the project back on track. Offer a new date and some value-added benefit. Involve the customer in resolving the problem and you'll salvage the business relationship.
2- Badmouthing
You badmouthed an employer and he finds out about it. You were caught being rude about your employer. You accidentally used the Reply All on your e-mail when you were kidding around with your buddy. Your boss overheard you making derogatory comments about him in a restaurant, at a party or at the photocopier. You were quoted on television criticizing the corporation or the CEO.
How to fix it: Apologize. Owning up to it and admitting you were wrong, without trying to excuse yourself, will demonstrate that you are mature, despite your poorly-timed and ill-advised comments. If the media was involved or too much damage was done, you may need to offer to resign before you get fired.
3- Breaching confidentiality
You used your position for your own benefit, engaging in insider trading and giving stock tips to friends. You shared information you happened to see in a confidential memo or fax. You fell prey to an unscrupulous reporter and gave a major scoop to the media about a new top-secret product.
How to fix it: Don't try to cover it up. You'll just compound the problem. Avoid blaming a third party or you'll confirm people's opinions that you are weak and cannot be trusted. Admit your error or call your lawyer — fast. And be honest with your lawyer. Let him decide what type of spin to put on it.
You freaked out on a colleague in front of everyone...

Just a quick update and an opportunity to upload some pictures! On our way from Fraser Island to Sydney, we stopped at a place called Tin Can Bay. Thanks for the recommendation Emma!
Here we got to meet and feed some wild indian humpback dolphins. They started coming in to be fed in the 1950's after one was injured and so he stayed in the river mouth and was nursed back to health before returning to sea. Since then he has bought back various members of his family and the dolphins we met were his grandkids!
We were so lucky as they usually arrive very early in the morning but these dolphins decided to have a lie in and didnt rock up until 10.15 am. By this point everyone else had given up waiting and we were almost about to do the same as we had a flight to catch. But our patience was rewarded with a very personal encounter with the dolphins as until word spread they were back, it was just us and them! A very special experience!

The Saints will adjust this week, as you saw by the barage of points they threw at the Redskins late in the game. I'm not so sure the same can be said of the Panthers. Remember, Josh Freeman had a very difficult 2nd season. A lot of rookies have. Don't be surprised if Cam does too.....31-23.

Anabolics effects, buy steroidsMany feel AA steroids are required to be at ones best in the ultra-competitive world of professional sport, while others feel they are damaging substances used by cheats to gain an unfair advantage. Whatever the case, AA steroids have become an entrenched part of sport. Professional bodybuilders, notorious for their use of AA steroids due to the overt results these drugs have on their physiques (compared to other steroid using sports where they are taken for performance gains, not pure muscle size), balance the dilemma associated with their choice to use with the consequences of not using: falling behind in the competitive placing's and sacrificing bodybuilding-related career opportunities due to a less "marketable" physique. Although it is widely thought all pro bodybuilders use AA steroids to assist their careers, the athletes themselves generally do not talk about such matters. I recently spoke to one professional bodybuilder and he shared with me his AA steroid history, in addition to why he made the choice to use, on the proviso his name and identity are not revealed. In the following interview, which is intended for educational and entertainment purposes only, our featured pro reveals all about his association with AA steroids and provides a rare glimpse into a side of bodybuilding seldom read about in the magazines. Q I understand you are currently on an off-cycle.

With the intent of providing independent administration and transparency, the NCAA transferred the administration of drug testing programs to The National Center for Drug Free Sport, Inc. Since then, Drug Free Sport has administered drug testing for all NCAA sports, with year-round (including summer) and championship drug testing. Although it might seem self-evident to have a drug testing program in sport, we might take a step back and ask: "What's wrong with drug use in sport? With this in mind, the U. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) conducted a survey across a large cross-section of America. As noted in Table 1, the top five values reinforced through sport are: honesty fair play respect for others doing your best and teamwork.

As the Prime Minister prepares to fly to Washington, the US ambassador tells deputy political editor Nicholas Cecil that the special relationship is also an essential one.
Barack Obama relies on David Cameron more than any other world leader — and makes his first call in a crisis to Downing Street, the US ambassador revealed today.
As the Prime Minister prepared to fly to the White House, Louis Susman hailed the "essential relationship" between Britain and America and praised Mr Cameron's "aggressive" leadership. In an interview with the Standard, the ambassador also said:
American intelligence agencies are working with MI6, MI5 and the police to safeguard the London Olympics.
America, and Britain, will not "cut and run" from Afghanistan despite the mounting military death toll and recent setbacks including outrage over US troops burning Korans and an American soldier running amok killing 16 civilians including nine children.
The US, the UK, Germany and France are warning Israel not to launch a military strike now on Iran.
Michelle Obama and Samantha Cameron enjoy a "very, very warm" relationship and will spend many hours together over the coming days.
Speaking from New York, Mr Susman, 74, stressed the growing bond between the Obamas and Camerons. "He has a very special relationship, as he calls it an essential relationship, with the United Kingdom and Prime Minister Cameron," he said.
"One of the particular attractions is generational. The President has just turned 50, the Prime Minister, I think is 45, they have young children. So I would tell you that as the President says 'We have a problem', our first call is to the United Kingdom and to the Prime Minister. From this ambassadorship, we see a strong leader, that's aggressive for all of its causes, and obviously has a strong popularity right now in the United Kingdom."
His warm words contrast with how Mr Obama started his presidency, when he sent back to the British embassy a loaned bronze bust of Winston Churchill that George Bush kept in the Oval Office. Relations with Gordon Brown were strained at times.
There were also suggestions that Mr Obama was lukewarm about the "special relationship", partly as he had been told by Kenyan relatives that his grandfather was allegedly tortured by British forces in colonial years.
Tomorrow, though, Mr Cameron will become the first foreign leader to join the President on Air Force One as the two fly to Ohio to relax at a basketball game.
Beforehand, Mrs Obama and Mrs Cameron will host a mini-Olympics competition, with school children and Olympians, to highlight the London Games and the First Lady's anti-obesity campaign. They are also due to address young women and girls in the White House, with pupils from Elizabeth Garrett Anderson secondary school in London, which Mrs Obama visited, expected to be in the audience.
Heavyweight talks will also take place on Afghanistan, Iran, global security and world global economy. But Afghanistan threatened to overshadow the trip after the horrific shooting of 16 civilians by a US soldier which will further increase the pressure for a speedier pull-out of Allied troops. "I don't see any cut and run," Mr Susman stressed, defending the plan to hand over all provinces to Afghan security forces during 2013 and an end to combat role for US and UK forces by 2014.
Giving an insight into the closeness of the Anglo-American relationship, he revealed how the US is involved in the Olympic security operation and how Londoners should "feel safe". "I have been deeply involved in all the security arrangements and I would tell you that British police, the Met, MI5, MI6, the armed forces, American intelligence agencies, the law enforcement, have really done a very good job," he said.
On Iran, Mr Susman stressed that the President did not "bluff" about the determination of America to stop Tehran getting a nuclear bomb.Reuse content

A recent survey made clear that both Republicans and Democrats in the United States want to see reductions in our military spending. It put to rest the myth of Republicans seeking to increase military spending and Democrats opposing such moves. 76% of those surveyed want to see lower military spending. The figures reveal minor differences among the two groups.
On the issue of Tricare health insurance, there is a difference. 52% of Republicans who are so gung ho for war want to double the premiums of Tricare while only 38% of Democrats favor such action. For all the false expression of patriotism by so many Republicans when it comes to supporting the health of those who served, guess which group says make them pay for risking their lives!

(WASHINGTON) — New research shows teenage drivers are more likely to nod off behind the wheel than older drivers.
AAA says younger drivers are more susceptible to sleep deprivation, and given the younger generation's increasingly jammed schedule, are likely to be more sleep-deprived than seniors these days.
Research shows driving while sleep-deprived is just as much impairment as driving drunk.

|Heather Lende reads from her work
Alaska Book Week was very exciting at the Haines Borough Public Library. We had a visit from Erin McKittrick, who read from her new book, Small Feet, Big Land. The slideshow presentation included a life-sized look at the things they brought on their journey around Alaska with the family – tent, rafts, set up in the reading room of our library. Those alone triggered many questions from our adventurous community who showed up in full to hear their story.
Local author Heather Lende read from books yet to be published, one called Finding the Good, the other an insightful novel about a girl in a small town. It was so heartening for our community to hear her warm words before the snow comes. We're biting our nails and pacing waiting for them to be published so we can soak up the stories we know, but see differently when reading Heather's point of view.
The Haines Borough Public Library also invited author Eleanor Millard, from the First Nations community of Carcross, YT, for a writer's workshop. Eleanor also read from her new book, Summer Snow, a potent novel inspired by Eleanor's personal experience adopting a First Nations girl with FASD. The love of literature reflected in her workshop, and the cross-cultural relationships framed in her books, I felt identified life in the North so well, it crossed Canada-Alaska border.
Thank you, 49 Writers, for making Alaska Book Week possible.
Jessie Morgan, Education/Cultural Coordinator at Haines Borough Public Library, provided this update on Alaska Book Week activities there.
