Axens offers benchmark RFCC technology for traditional gas oil cracking and residue cracking. The R2R™ technology was originally developed by Total as a cost-effective, flexible and reliable means to profit from market opportunities. This advanced R2R resid FCC technology is offered to the market place through the FCC Alliance between Axens (technology developer and licensor), IFP Energies Nouvelles (R&D), Total (operations expertise) and Technip Stone & Webster Process Technology (licensing and engineering innovation). Proven innovative technology elements developed by the FCC Alliance and other partners have combined to bring our customers the best available technology.
Important innovations have been developed by Axens in all phases of the technology: feed pre-treatment, Residue FCC reactor technology, two-stage catalyst regeneration, distillate operation, high propylene production, product recovery and product & effluent treatment.
Reactor technology
Key advances incorporated in the design include:
- Best available feed injector technology
- Riser temperature control with MTC
- Catalyst mixing control with SCM technology
- RS2 high containment riser separation system
- Vapor quench technology for high severity operation
- Superior catalyst stripping with structured packing
The Axens R2R process provides yields that are unmatched in the industry with the flexibility to process a wide range of feedstocks – from gas oil through residue – in the same unit to meet multiple product scenarios (max distillate, max gasoline, or max light olefins)
Catalyst Regeneration
The patented R2R configuration with two-stage catalyst regeneration for residue feedstock minimizes catalyst deactivation in the presence of metals to maintain higher activity with more metals on the catalyst, thereby reducing catalyst replacement costs. The two-stage scheme also rejects a substantial portion of the regeneration heat as CO in the partial-burn first stage. When additional heat removal for heavier feedstock is required, a widely proven and reliable dense-phase catalyst cooler can be added.
The Axens design reflects the combined expertise of the Alliance members to offer lower capital, operating, and maintenance costs as compared to competing technologies. To date, Axens and Technip Stone & Webster Process Technology have designed over fifty grassroots RFCC & FCC units. These units have achieved more than 200 years of proven commercial operation in processing over 2 million BPD of feedstocks ranging from gas oils to heavy residues.

Chapter 1
The Sun brutalized the strange landscape with its all too familiar waves of heat. A landscape
made up of large, curved hills, created by rivers that had cut deep into the sandstone and other
soft rock. There were a number of odd looking sculptures that had been carved over time –
mushroom like formations – some that would make the more prudish blush, and others just
laugh. There was minimal vegetation in this harsh landscape; only the hardiest of plants claiming
their small patch of parched, Sun-baked ground. All elements combined gave the landscape an
almost eerie other worldly feel. The area was called the Badlands by the early settlers, and with
good reason – nothing they wanted to grow, would grow.
A solitary figure moved slowly over the solar heated ground, stirring up small clouds of dust
with every arduous step. With every step, he was deciding whether to go back to his air-
conditioned hotel in Drumheller, Alberta, or go on just a bit farther. His stubbornness won out,
so on he struggled.
David Van Bercham wasn't a paleontologist or some professional dinosaur hunter. He was
just an avid hobbyist, who used some of his vacation time hunting for fossils. This was the
newest of his interests, and one, he was even now deciding whether to keep. Playing guitar in
room temperature was starting to look better and better as the huge sweat spots on his light grey
t-shirt expanded, threatening to dominate the few dry areas that remained.
He wasn't looking for anything in particular. Just finding anything was starting to look real
good right about now, but he had hoped for the rare possibility of finding a Troodon, a raptor-
like dinosaur that was about two metres long. It was the paleontologist's flavour of the month.
He was looking in an area up a hill where the layers of rock were estimated to be around 73
million years old. It was around the right time for the Troodons, so if he was going to find one,
this was the place. Then, something strange caught his eye.
Farther up the hill of sedimentary outcroppings, there was a dense black colour that looked
oddly out of place compared to its surroundings. He was too far away to identify what it was, so
he climbed the steep slope to the rock outcropping that framed the dark thing.


text: I love some good old fashioned draft talk, but I'm beginning to think many of us are on the wrong track here in talking about CB's or RB's. We are about to sign Romo to a 60-80 million dollar deal. Do any of us really think we're not going to try to protect that investment and not get the best Left tackle we can draft? Flozell is gone, and the money LT's (if you can find a good one) in FA is astronomical. We can't have it all people. The talk of RB's in the first round is a little silly too if you really stop and think about it. This draft is DEEP in RB's and lets not kid ourselves, any guy we get in the 2nd or maybe 3rd round would be an upgrade over Julius. OR we take someone even later and give Barber a shot at starting. Or even sign Micheal Turner in free agency. Either way its an upgrade. Also, signing Turner is going to be alot cheaper than signing a LT. CB's. Yes, Nate Jones doesn't excite anyone, but we're 6-1 and we haven't had but a dozen plays where Newman AND Henry have been on the field at the same time. When that happens after the bye, we will be much improved. And Jacques Reeves has bypassed all my expectations. Another CB in the first seems like a stretch to me at his point. NOBODY in the league has 4 great corners. Nobody. I don't believe our Corners are whats killing us. Its Safety. Our safeties are horrid. I don't care how hard they can hit. Hitting is overrated. Looks great on Jacked up, but I'd rather see one wrap up. I believe our areas of need are LT, S, WR then RB. In that order. LT and S in the first round, RB in free agency, WR either in the draft or FA. Flame away boys, but thats my two cents.

I saw a discussion regarding this company and its service - I can only speak to my experience. A pleasantly spoken man knocked on my door - it takes some courage these days to go into an unfamiliar neighborhood and just knock on doors trying to sell magazine subscriptions. He shared his story - not a happy one - and said he was trying to put his life in order. He asked some very compelling questions - had I ever tried to sell door-to-door - and I had once long ago. I was very impressed with him.
And so I wanted to help - I admired what he said he was trying to do. But I'm not about to give my credit card number or a check to someone who knocks on my door no matter how much I want to help.
I gave him cash and ordered a magazine subscription - a magazine that would normally cost about $11.00 a year - I paid $60.
I wasn't too surprised when the subscription never came. The order form had some odd working on it - Delivery within 120 days - what subscription takes that long to begin? "Funds must be available for Immediate Electronic Processing" - well, sure, but never saw that on a receipt before.
Do I regret it? Actually I hope the gentleman who knocked on my door - and the courage that took -( this is not a friendly neighborhood and not too long he knocked on my door one of my unfriendly neighbors called the cops on him... when he knocked on hers ) I hope he got to keep the cash - or at least held some of it back - and took himself out to dinner.
And I hope he did get in life in order and he's out there doing well and thriving.

Description: There aren't a lot of choices in a bee's life: a bee attends a few days of school, graduates from college, and chooses a job in the hive that he'll labor at for the rest of his life. Barry (Jerry Seinfeld) is different from his best friend Adam (Matthew Broderick) and all the other bees: he wants to see the world outside the hive and can't begin to contemplate doing the same job for his entire life. Naturally, the life of the "pollen jock" bees appeals to Barry because it's the only job that takes a bee outside the hive and into the larger human world. Once outside the hive, Barry breaks the most sacred bee law and speaks to a human named Vanessa (Renée Zellweger) in order to thank her for saving his life. A relationship quickly blossoms and leads Barry to the discovery that humans are stealing honey from the bees and selling it for their own profit. Vowing to hurt the humans the one place they'll feel it, Barry brings a legal suit against the honey industry and the courtroom drama begins. There are some hysterical moments in the film, as one would expect from a Seinfeld production, and an abundance of one-liners, double-meanings, slapstick humor, and innuendo-laden dialogue that will keep adults guffawing throughout the show. Still, the whole concept of seeing the life of a common pest through non-human eyes is getting repetitive thanks to films like Ratatouille, Flushed Away, Open Season, and Over the Hedge. It should be noted, though, that this first foray into animation by Jerry Seinfeld was four years in production due to its collaborative nature, so its theme may actually have well predated all of the aforementioned films. Children ages 5 and older will love the bees' silly antics, though many of the jokes will go right over their heads and parents should be cautioned about some mildly suggestive humor. More than just a comical film about the life of one very different honeybee, Bee Movie is a social commentary that pokes fun at human behavior while stressing the importance of doing even the most menial job well and championing the power of working together toward a common goal. There's even a lesson to be learned from the bees about controlling one's temper. --Tami Horiuchi

BeschreibungThe complete works of Siza, one of the leading and most respected architects in the world today.
InhaltsverzeichnisPreface: Alvaro Siza and the Art of Fusion Francesco Dal Co Architecture as Critical Transformation: The Work of Alvaro Siza Kenneth Frampton Homage to Alvaro Siza Fernando Tavora Complete Works 1952-1999 Writings by Alvaro Siza On My Work Leca da Palmeira Evora-Malagueira Living in a House The Museum of Santiago de Compostela The Chiado The Church at Marco de Canavezes Villa Savoye Alvar Aalto On Design Appendices Biography Bibliography Chronology of Works Index of Works Acknowledgements
PortraitKenneth Frampton is an internationally respected architectural critic who holds the Ware Professorship at the Graduate School of Architecture and Planning, Columbia University, New York. He lectures extensively in the US and Europe, and has also written, edited and contributed to numerous publications on contemporary architecture. He is the author of Modern Architecture: A Critical History (1980; revised 1985 and 1992) and Studies in Tectonic Culture (1997). His collected essays Labour, Work and Architecture are published by Phaidon.
Pressestimmen'A mighty volume that researches and analyses the architect's work throughout his entire career...The book is sumptuous in its contents. With 620 large format pages, it unfolds the evoluation of Siza's projects, largely through drawings. The analysis by Dal Co and Frampton and a huge array of drawings collectively help to comprehend the achievements of the architect.' (Indian Architect and Builder) 'This comprehensive volume documents more than forty years of this acclaimed architect's work, featuring every one of his projects large and small...the documentation of Siza's work is so complete that even those less familiar with the details and intricacies of the design world can trace his professional evolution and development. An exceptional publication in which the buildings have been allowed to speak for themselves, and in doing so have created a pictorial history of the vision and life work of this revered architect.' (The British Bulletin of Publications on Latin America, the Caribbean, Portugal and Spain) 'This book is so comprehensive in its illustrative material that an outsider with no previous awareness of Siza's oeuvre can make fair and balanced judgements on how the architect has evolved, which buildings work, and where he has become tired ... an exceptional book.' (Times Literary Supplement) 'Frampton's massive volume must surely be the most complete collection of Siza's work assembled to date. Chronologically arranged, the elegant photography mixed with detailed plans, elevations and sections allow the reader to appreciate the architect's methods and his aims through four decades of work. The well-written introductory chapter sets Siza's work in the context of 20th century Europe with comparisons to his peers using a number of project examples. Ultimately this is a very satisfying and incredibly comprehensive book that sits nicely on the coffee table but also serves as an excellent reference volume.' (C3)

I was told that a refund was issued to my account because I purchased a product that did not work with my phone. I noticed no credit was issued so I send an email where they told me again that a refund would be issued. The next time I tried to contact them they changed the email address for support so that it would not receive any incoming messages.

How come none of the millions of WWII vets came back shooting up the country with "PTSD"? They surely went through alot more stress than soldiers do today.Quoting: Anonymous Coward 10485561
because they believed in the cause then.
Now, its about lies and a paycheck, ONLY.
Having been lied to is depressing, having been a liar is even more depressing.
Have you ever sat down and talked with a WW2 vet? What they went through was far worse than anything i could have ever imagined in War.
They suffer from it as well, back then they did not know what PTSD was but still a lot of them had it and some still have it. They had suicides just like we do now. Most of them just hit the bottle or weed for control of their emotions.
Yeah, and most of them didn't have to wait a fucking year to see a fucking VA Dr. Now, they have to wait because our government is too fucking busy buy $400,000 dollar fucking Islamic camels.
You still waiting to see the VA docs? Get with your local VA rep they will help you out. They are not VA employees just advocates.

RALEIGH (AP) — North Carolina's 1.5 million public school students could sit in classrooms for longer but fewer days in a new twist to the long-running debate between improving education and protecting summer vacation as the tourism industry wants.
Changes adopted by the General Assembly in the final hours of the two-year legislative session that ended Tuesday would give the state's 115 school districts the ability to set yearly schedules that meet for 185 classroom days or 1,025 hours beginning in 2013.
Schools previously had to meet minimums of both the number of hours and the number of days. Nearly every school district was allowed to postpone expanding the 180-day academic year until 2013-14 after complaints that lawmakers didn't provide the money needed to run buses or heat classrooms.
The either-or option means that school districts operating 6�-hour school days could wrap up future years after 158 days, said Leanne Winner of the North Carolina School Boards Association, which opposed the changes.
"Children could go to school a significantly fewer number of days," Winner said.
Also beginning in 2013, the legally mandated dates for the North Carolina public school year could float. Traditional calendar schools now are barred from opening earlier than Aug. 25 or closing later than June 10. Starting next year, most schools will open on the Monday closest to Aug. 26 and wrap up on the Friday closest to June 11, cutting out mid-week beginnings and endings. This would mean schools could begin as late as Aug. 29 and end as early as June 7 some years, the school boards association said.
The changes packed in a catch-all budget bill are waiting for approval by Gov. Beverly Perdue. She could approve or veto the bill, or let it become law without doing anything.
State lawmakers and education leaders have long recognized that North Carolina students need to spend more time hitting the books to compete with countries whose students are spending 200 days or more in class. The standard 180 instructional days in the United States is among the shortest for industrialized nations, according to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.
But adding to the state's school calendar butts up against the 10-week summer vacation guaranteed to tourism businesses, and made it difficult for administrators to adjust when class days are lost to bad weather. Snow cost Ashe County schools 11 days in the just-finished academic year, while coastal storms cost Dare County schools 15 days, according to a state Department of Public Instruction survey.
Letting schools meet either the minimum classroom days or hours was a compromise with bad-weather days in mind, said Senate leader Phil Berger, R-Rockingham.
"As the year goes on, they (school districts) can lengthen their days to get their hours in so that they could, one, finish on time, and two, not necessarily go on Saturdays or cut into planned vacations," Berger said.
The tourism industry benefits because the changes allow the "maximum amount of summer for families that want to take vacation and for the tourism folks that want to utilize high school students in their industry," Berger said.
Lawmakers would review the law in the future if school districts are significantly shortening their school years, Berger said.
Neal Orgain, the parent of a rising senior at Hickory High School, said she's opposed to the changes and doubts they were designed to give children the best possible education.
Because of an exception to the school calendar law allowed for its track record of snow-day closings, Catawba County's three school districts begin classes on Aug. 7 and wrap up with graduation scheduled for the Thursday before Memorial Day in May 2013. That schedule allows the county's students to take their end-of-term exams before Christmas, which means they're not forgetting what they learned or cramming during the holiday break, she said.
"The school calendar should be what is best for the students, not North Carolina tourism and minimum wages for their high school workers whether on the coast or at Carowinds and like entertainment parks," Orgain said.
State Superintendent of Public Instruction June Atkinson thinks the Legislature's changes aren't likely to mean much difference in most school districts.
"The school calendar, with the flexibility, is better than what it was but is not as good as it should be," she said.

Today we were in touch with Hugh Clarke, VP Corporate Communications of the Endeavour Silver Corporation (NYSE:EXK) regarding Endeavour's 3rd Quarter results, who summarized this performance as follows:
"We are really pleased with the Q3 results ... record revenues, record cash flows, very strong earnings and a further reduction in cash production costs. Coupled with $145 million in working capital and zero debt; that's a very tidy basket of financial results to deliver to the market."
Endeavour owns and operates two high-grade, underground, silver-gold mines in Mexico, the Guanacevi Mines in Durango State and the Guanajuato Mines in Guanajuato State.
The company reported record adjusted earnings (a non-IFRS measure) of $8.9 million ($0.10 per share) in the Third Quarter, 2011. Net Earnings (an IFRS measure) were $3.1 million and operating cash-flow was $14.3 million from revenues totaling $38.8 million. Silver sales averaged $40.72 per ounce (oz) and the Company's cash cost of production was $5.03 per oz of silver net of gold credits in Q3, 2011.
Highlights are as follows:
Adjusted Earnings (non-IFRS measure) rose to $8.9 million ($0.10 per share) compared to $4.8 million loss (see IFRS comment below)
Net Earnings increased to $3.1 million ($0.04 per share) compared to $9.6 million loss
EBITDA gained 494% to $13.8 million ($0.16 per share) compared to a Loss of $3.5 million.
Operating Cash-Flow jumped 191% to $14.3 million
Mine Operating Cash-Flow climbed 194% to $27.1 million
Revenues escalated 93% to $38.8 million
Silver production up 8% to 858,738 oz
Gold production up 7% to 4,926 oz
Silver equivalent production up 4% to 1.04 million oz (40:1 silver: gold ratio, no base metals)
Realized silver price up 120% to $40.72 per oz sold, realized gold price up 35% to $1,679 per oz sold
Precious metals held in inventory at quarter-end included 270,536 silver oz and 2,420 gold oz
Cash costs fell 18% to $5.03 per oz silver produced (net of gold credits)
We draw your attention to the reduction in the cash costs to $5.03 per oz of silver produced, which is now less than the Silver Institute estimated for the year 2010, which was in the order of $5.27/oz. So we see this as good progress in terms of containing rising costs by operating in a more efficient manner. Bradford Cooke, Chairman and CEO, commented:
"Endeavour delivered another great quarter of operating performance in Q3, 2011 which translated directly into robust financial results. Thanks to substantially higher precious metal prices and lower operating costs, our revenues, cash-flow, EBITDA and earnings continue to rise, up sharply from 2010."
"The highlight for operations during the quarter was the completion of the Guanajuato plant expansion on time and budget by the end of Q3, 2011, which facilitated a 60% increase in the production rate in October. The new 1,000 tpd plant circuit is now operating at capacity and the old 600 tpd circuit will continue to be utilized from time to time to top up the Q4 production rate to 1100 tpd until the year-end."
"Management elected to not to sell all the silver and gold produced during the 3rd quarter due to the falling precious metal prices. As a result, precious metals held in inventory at quarter-end increased 270,536 oz silver and 2,420 oz gold. Given that silver and gold prices are already rebounding in the 4th quarter, these inventories should substantially enhance our future financial results when sold."
"The Company continues to generate excellent drill results along the Daniela vein and other prospective targets in Guanajuato and Guanacevi. In exploration, we currently have eight drill rigs working, three at Guanajuato, three at Guanacevi and one each at the San Sebastian project in Jalisco and the new Lomas Bayas project in Chile. Additional results from our exploration programs are expected this quarter."
Back to Hugh Clarke, when asked about withholding the selling of 270,000 ounces of silver and 2,420 ounces of gold (worth roughly $13 million at today's prices) he told us this action clearly demonstrates a belief in higher precious metals in the near term and that they were very optimistic of another very strong quarter for the last 3 months of 2011.
Endeavour Silver Corporation is a mid-cap silver mining company focused on the growth of its silver production, reserves and resources in Mexico. Since start-up in 2004, Endeavour has posted six consecutive years of aggressive silver production and resource growth. The organic expansion programs now underway at Endeavour's two operating silver mines in Mexico combined with its strategic acquisition program should help Endeavour achieve its goal to become a premier, mid-tier silver mining company.
The company's market capitalization is $943.69 million with 93.1 million shares (fully diluted) outstanding. The 52 week trading range is $4.70 to $13.10 and the stock price closed at $11.23 on the NYSE yesterday.

By Claude Shitindi – My Bush Report For August 2013
Habari (Howdy)! This is ADS driver-guide Claude. I have just finished a wonderful trip that we started with the most diverse and active circuit of the Serengeti (Kogatende and Mara river). The Northern Serengeti was great with large herds of migration, crocodiles, big cats (lions, leopards and cheetahs) and other species of large game were seen in abundance.
We went to Lobo Valley (North East Serengeti) which was a little scattered with game but the sightings we found were amazing. Beautiful leopards, elephants etc.
The central Serengeti (Seronera valley) including Moru Kopjes and Sametu Kopjes was stunning. It is very dry now in the central Serengeti especially to the south, but along the streams and marshes and around the kopjes we had great wildlife viewing.
After the Serengeti, we visited Ngorongoro and Tarangire with beautiful sights of elephants, giraffes, buffaloes and greater Kudu…fantastic! In all the circuits in Northern Tanzania, Tarangire National Park is the only place one can spot a greater Kudu.
I hope you enjoy my pictures below. I certainly enjoyed taking them!

Assam is the most severely affected area in India in terms of floods and erosion, accounting for 9.4% of the country's total flood-prone area. In Assam, damage due to floods has been caused by two river systems: the Brahmaputra and the Barak. In the subproject areas, flood and riverbank erosion has been a chronic problem, causing enormous damage to lives, crops, livestock, land and property. These impacts cause massive displacement of people, increase landlessness, and force local governments to focus scarce resources on relief operations rather than development. Major floods have occurred in 1954, 1962, 1966, 1972, 1977, 1984, 1988, 1998, 2002 and 2004, while floods of lesser magnitude occur almost yearly. As a result, in spite of having vast natural resources, Assam has been unable to meet its development goals. The people in the subproject areas (Palasbari, Kaziranga and Dibrugarh) have lost land and lives to floods and riverbank erosion, which is now an annual phenomenon.

If you suffer from complex regional pain syndrome, it's good to know that there are many treatment options. Doctors often try medication first. Other options include physical or psychological therapy, surgery, nerve blocks, or medical devices like neurostimulators and drug pumps.
Talk to your doctor about the right pain treatment for your complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). Not all treatments may be applicable to your type of pain. Treatments include:
Doctors often try medication first. Because each person responds differently to medication, your doctor may try a variety of doses and drugs. Medications range from over-the-counter pain relievers, such as aspirin, acetaminophen and anti-inflammatory steroids to stronger pain medicines.
Physiotherapy attempts to build or recondition muscles – allowing you to move more normally and with less pain. Your doctor may recommend passive physical therapy, such as massage and applying heat/cold, or active therapies, such as exercise.
Chronic pain can bring stress that affects you, your relationships, and your body. Psychologists are available to work with you on relaxation techniques and coping and self-monitoring skills.
Your doctor may do tests, such as MRI or CT scans, to look for the cause of your pain. If the test reveals a problem that it is known can be corrected by surgery, your doctor may recommend this treatment.
Therapeutic nerve blocks are local anaesthetic and/or steroid injections given at the origin of pain. Nerve blocks usually provide temporary pain relief. If your pain is not managed after multiple injections, your doctor may consider other treatments.
Medical devices, such as neurostimulators or drug pumps (intrathecal drug delivery systems), are surgically placed devices that modulate pain signals before they reach the brain.
Medical devices for the treatment of pain include:
Your doctor can turn off or remove the system completely. In addition, you can try these therapies temporarily before you receive a permanent implant.
With neuroablation, doctors destroy (usually with heat) the nerves that serve as pathways to the brain. Neuroablation is often a last resort when other treatments have failed.

Originally posted on NFL Trade Rumors | Last updated 1/31/13
Tim MacManus of Birds 24/7 expects to see the Eagles to find another tight end at some point during the offseason. MacManus believes that it's time to find a "complement/eventual replacement" for Brent Celek and mentions that the Eagles "came away from the Senior Bowl impressed with Rice tight end Vance McDonald." Celek, 28, signed an eight-year deal worth $34.01 million back in 2009. He still has another four years left on this deal with base salaries of $3.256 million (2014), $4 million (2015), $4.725 million (2016) and $4.925 million (2017) coming his way. Clay Harbor has had much of an impact in the Eagles' offense and it's hard to say Evan Moore is ever going to be a difference-maker. There are some options in the free agent market like Jared Cook, Dustin Keller, Brandon Myers and Anthony Fasano, but head coach Chip Kelly may want to bring in some young talent that he can mold in the coming years versus paying market price for a veteran.

The Biggest Mistake in Selling
The biggest mistake in selling is believing that if you can just tell your prospect enough about your product or service, if you just get the chance to "make your case"—he or she will be compelled to buy.
This is false.
Selling is not telling.
Why not?
Because, when confronted with the opportunity to buy something, the buyer's attitude is always "Why do I need this?" The more you talk, the more likely you are to say something that causes your buyer to say: "I don't need that specific feature. That's why I don't have to buy your product!"
The thing you mentioned may be a great feature of your product—something that lots of people think is just wonderful. But because this particular prospect doesn't need this specific feature, it's his reason to reject. And you lose.
How to avoid the problem? Don't talk so much. Ask questions. Really listen to what this person wants. And then talk only about the aspects of your product that relate to what your prospect desires! Selling is not about what you think is cool about your product. It's about what your prospect wants!

If you're following me on twitter, you may have heard me mention that I'm doing that thing where you run out of space and decide to buy a bunch of bins. Lucky for me, I have a husband who sees right through this tactic, so I had to make a very good case about how I was going to use them before he would agree to it. I do not claim to have it all figured out yet, but looking at this pile of tubs and dividers gives me some hope.
I'm knee deep into my next project, so I'm not sure when I'll squirrel away the time to arrange everything. However, I'm getting some very strong nudges from the husband department in that direction – so I am thinking it will be sooner rather than later. I'm planning to try this fabric storage method and see if that helps with the chaos going on in the big gray wardrobe. (Anyone with fabric storage tips? Would love to hear them!)
Every time I'm arranging fabric, I think about that day when some bolts of my very own will arrive. (In the future, people! One day!) But it's good to leave a little spot for them, right?
I have paper wrangling issues, too. I used a gift card and picked up this acrylic file holder on sale at The Container Store. I am still a hopelessly old school – pencil to paper - kind of girl when it's time to plan. All of my designs start out on sheets of recycled computer paper. I have a few nicer sketchbooks too and I do use them, but I still like the freedom of a fresh piece of paper that isn't attached to anything.
I don't even want to bring up the photo studio I'm trying to build in here either. The room is big, but not that big. This is definitely a multitasking space. Now to get back to earning my keep… more soon.

Most lessons taught in CEA's accredited online high school program teach excellent writing skills, including the three point thesis essay. Almost any essay for high school can be written in a 3point thesis, in 5 paragraphs. If you follow the three point thesis essay format, it is easy to complete a 500+ word essay that will meet most teacher requirements. I will use the example of a descriptive essay.
When writing a descriptive essay, you are trying to describe something whether it is a person, place, thing, event, historical or scientific explanation, a feeling, mood, a book, or anything else. Using the three point thesis essay format, when you write, the purpose trying to make the reader (usually your teacher), see it or experience it the way you do. Think about how something looks, feels, tastes, sounds and so on. Use as much detail as you can in your essay.
Most essays are about 500 words and have at least five paragraphs- meeting the Three Point Thesis Essay format:
- the introduction- your primary thesis
- three body paragraphs
- a conclusion paragraph that summarizes your paper
The introduction should contain your thesis statement as the last sentence of the paragraph. What is a thesis statement? A thesis statement declares what you think, believe or what you intend to describe and write about. A good thesis will help you focus your paper.
A thesis statement can sometimes be difficult to write. Here is a way to make it simple. Write what your paper is about and list three things to support it. The thesis statement needs to be in the middle, or at the end of your introduction. Each of the three things you write in your thesis statement will then become the topics for your three body paragraphs in your paper.
Example: The Beach at Sunset. First, you are writing about the beach at sunset- and why you chose to write about it. What kind of things do you want to talk about? Do you like the beach? Be ready to explain why you like sunsets in detail. If you like sunsets, then something like the colors of the sunset are a key point to your thesis statement, and one of your paragraphs. How does watching a sunset make you feel? What do you think about or dream about when you see a sunset at the beach? What sounds do you hear? Who is with you when watching a sunset? Once you have chosen three main things about sunsets at the beach, you can have three paragraph topics and you can begin to put it all together.
Here are a few examples of thesis statements. You body paragraphs should support your thesis statement. The conclusion paragraph should restate your thesis and indicate that you have finished what you wanted to say.
The beach at sunset is my one of my favorite times of day. The colors are so beautiful, it is peaceful and relaxing and I have time to remember the many things I am thankful for.
My favorite book is Little House on the Prairie. I love the all the characters in the story, it is interesting to learn what it was like to live back then, and my father read me this story for the first time.
There is nothing worse than having tuna noodle casserole for dinner. It smells bad, tastes bad, and all the ingredients used to make a tuna casserole feel gross in my mouth. Tuna casserole looks like something the dog threw up and it makes me gag!
The African Slave Trade has affected a very large part of the world. This phenomenon has been described in many different ways, such as slave trade, forced migration and genocide. The problem with these descriptions is that none of them accurately describe the African Slave Trade or it's consequences because they are all biased points of views. Although none of the descriptions alone form a decent view on the subject, all three appellations seem to provide a more concise understanding of why the slave trade started and how it has affected so many people, societies and countries.
Once you have your thesis statement you can write the rest of your paper. Each paragraph will talk about a point you made in your thesis statement. It will make the paper flow better if you write about each point in the order it is in the thesis statement. Since the colors of the sunset is first in the first thesis statement that will be the first body paragraph. The second point will be the second paragraph and the third point the third body paragraph.
Each body paragraph explains the thesis statement in greater detail. What about the colors are beautiful? Describe it. Next, the second point; How is the sunset relaxing and peaceful? Explain why and how.
C The Beach at Sunset
Introduction with Thesis: (3-5 sentences)
Of all the places in the world I could be, I would choose the beach. The beach is a spectacular and beautiful place any time of year, any time of the day. The beach at sunset is my most favorite time of day because the colors are so beautiful, it is peaceful and relaxing, and I have time to remember the all the many things in my life I am thankful for.
First Paragraph – Colors are beautiful (5-7 sentences)
The colors at sunset at the beach are both beautiful and amazing. They change from red or pink, to yellow or orange or peach, to purples as the sun sinks further and further over the horizon. The colors are much more vibrant and alive at the beach than anywhere else in the world. No two sunsets are the same. I find every sunset unique and beautiful.
Second Paragraph – Peaceful and relaxing (5-7 sentences)
When I watch the sun set, all the colors change in the sky is very peaceful. I can focus on the scene in front of me instead of the things I often worry about. As the colors change across the evening sky while the sun sinks further and further down, I begin to feel very relaxed. My arms and legs feel lighter. I am able to slow down and chill out after a hard day. Something about seeing God painting the sky with all the colors of the rainbow is very soothing and peaceful.
Third Paragraph – Things I am grateful for (5-7 sentences)
The very sight of a sunset is so amazing to me, that I cannot help but think about the Creator of the sunset. When I think of the God in all his Majesty, I am forever grateful for all He has done for me. I think about all the many things I am thankful for. I am thankful I can see a sunset, that I live close enough to go to the beach most days, that I have a wonderful family to share the beach with. Most of all, I am thankful that God loves me. Sunsets make me feel wonderful at the end of each day because I can dwell on all the things I love and I am grateful for.
Conclusion – make sure to mention all the things your paper talks about. (5-7 sentences)
I would spend every day at the beach and watch every sunset if I could. There is no other place that makes me feel so relaxed and peaceful, where I can see something so amazingly beautiful at any time of year. The beach is the best place for me to take time out of my busy day and remember the things I am truly grateful for. For me, the beach at sunset is the best place to be.

A miracle couldn't save soppy 'Winter's Tale'
"Miracles can happen," says the trailer for "Winter's Tale," starring Colin Farrell and based on the 1983 novel of the same name.
Fair enough. But not long into the actual movie, you'll soon start to doubt that. Because you'll realize that this movie truly needs a miracle to save it from ending up a soppy, syrupy mess. And, sorry to say, that miracle never comes.
In (lukewarm) defense of screenwriter-director Akiva Goldsman ("A Beautiful Mind"), it's always tricky to adapt a popular novel. For one thing, people who've read it have preconceived notions of how things should be. And Mark Helprin's novel is a long one, meaning the author had plenty of room and time to weave his tale, as subtly as he wanted.
But Goldsman employs all the subtlety of a wrecking ball. From the beginning, we're asked to relinquish all sense of logic and reason, and accept that impossible, unexplainable things are happening. That would all be fine, in a film made with wit and charm and a breezy sense of magic. It's been done.
But not here.
The good news? Only this: Colin Farrell is hugely appealing, and his natural charm is almost enough to make you forget the silliness of the rest of it. Almost.
The film begins, briefly, in the present day, to which it will later return. A man finds a box, which he hopes will give him some clues to who he is. Which he doesn't know. But we don't really know that yet.
Flashback to 1895. An immigrant couple with a baby is trying to enter the country, but they're turned away due to illness. On the boat back home, they set their baby son afloat onto a tiny wooden boat, like Moses, so he can float back to the promised land.
Now we get to 1916 (stay with us.) That boy's grown up to be Peter Lake, who makes his way in New York as a petty thief. We learn he's at odds with a former boss, Pearly Soames (played by Russell Crowe in an almost comically unpleasant, sinister performance). Soames wants nothing more than to kill Peter — "and I want him to stay dead," he says. At a key moment, that seems about to happen, but a snow-white horse shows up to save Peter and whisk him away.
And then he meets Beverly (Jessica Brown Findlay from "Downton Abbey"). The lovely young woman is the daughter of a newspaper magnate and is, alas, suffering from consumption. Peter breaks into her beautiful home to rob it, but soon she's offered him a cup of tea. And they are falling in love.
Can Peter save the dying Beverly through the force of his love? Has he been placed on earth in service of a higher plan? Will Soames be able to follow through on his goal of extinguishing Peter's life, or lives?
Readers of the book will be able to answer those questions. But here's one they won't be able to answer: What the heck is Will Smith doing in this movie?
Smith doesn't have too much screen time, but the scenes he does have are rather ludicrous. Again, it might all make more sense to fans of the book. But you shouldn't have to have read the book to be able to see and enjoy the movie.
"Winter's Tale" opened on Valentine's Day, at a time when you might have a softer spot for romantic fantasy than you ordinarily would. And there are some touching moments, courtesy of Farrell and Findlay. Farrell in particular knows how to deliver sentimental dialogue and make it sound less so.
But to overcome the corniness of this movie?
That would take magical powers that he doesn't possess.
"Winter's Tale," a Warner Bros. release, is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for "violence and some sensuality." Running time: 118 minutes. One and a half stars out of four.

New Rules For Game Day Neighborhood Parking In Gainesville
Published August 15th, 2013
Loading Video...
Gator football game season is around the corner and the Gainesville City Commission will be implementing new rules for game day neighborhood parking.
The special events permit will cost a little over 50 dollars a season. Parking will be allowed from 8 in the morning to midnight or 3 hours after the game. All trash must be cleared by 6pm the day after the game. And if porta-potties are used, they must be removed by 6pm, two days after the game.
Gainesville City Commissioner said, Thomas Hawkins said, "The primary voice that we aired were of those folks who were interested in the game day activities, who love all the benefits that come with game day but sometimes go to late in the evening or has characteristics that are unsafe."
While one more vote is needed, it is expected that this will become the new ordinance for 2014. Violations of any of these new rules, can cost $250 in code enforcement fines.

Not good. Not fun. Not sure how I am going to be able to lift boxes in the future. How are others with this handling the lifting aspect of bee keeping??
Not good. Not fun. Not sure how I am going to be able to lift boxes in the future. How are others with this handling the lifting aspect of bee keeping??
I wish you luck Dan. I have 2 very close that have it. My mom that got it in the late 70's. She is a mess with every joint in her body replaced. They there is my friend that I went in the military with in 1983. He got it in the late 80's. They tried to discharge him but he fought it and won. He has responded very well to medication. He retired in 2003
Dan I have had it for 15 years, and it has had limited impact on what I do. Everybody is affected differently. Mine is in my lungs too, and initially it really did a number on me. So much so that the pulmonary doctor gave me 5 years to live. I am lucky and mine is controlled with some of the oldest and cheapest drugs used for treatment. It took about 18 months for mine to calm down, and as long as I take my medicine I am fine. If I go off my meds it flares back up. You cannot look at those around you with horrible conditions and assume you will be like that. For every person that you see with obvious symptoms there are many more you do not even notice. Get yourself a rheumatologist to treat it not a GP. Take your meds, and you probably will be lifting boxes just like you were before.
You may think I'm crazy but it is ok. I have it in my right arm, when it get to bad I take 3-4 bees an have them sting me in the joint. I can then work with my bees with very little pain for about a week. It may not work for everyone, but it works for me
I'm with Bees of SC on this. So long as you KNOW that you are not allergic, grab a bee by the wings or front sides and place it on the hot spot. Let the venom flow. Then every other day or so, do it again. You can also increase the number of stings, but do it slowly. This may help.
This is a subject on which I am strongly opinionated. Maybe that is because I grew up seeing my mother suffer immensely from this disease while the medications she was given, if anything, made her condition worse. In the end she was down to aspirin only, but the damage had been done, head to toe.
Part of my opinion is that this disease is often diet related. Coffee all day long is bad. Sodas, especially with HFCS---don't consume. Also any excess in the diet like chocolate, sugar, and meat may increase the inflammation. Now, I may take heat for what I have stated; however, I don't care. If just one person changes their diet as the result of this, then my effort has been worthwhile.
Bottom line-----------all in moderation!
Most people don't know the other good thins honey bees are good for. I have it in my hands too, 1 bee will help it.Honey bees are not just for honey
I don't know that rheumatoid arthritis responds well to bee stings but it helps my played football til I was too broken to continue body. My wife has Rheumatoid which is more an immune system problem.
I remember 15 years ago when we had to buy the booster seat for the toilet and when she woke me whimpering at night because she couldn't move an arm or a leg, I would re arrange her. The drug EMBREL and God gave her back her life. It is uncommon for a drug to stay effective that long but it sure has worked for her. Pricey, about $1700 a month.
Sorry to hear about your arthritis Dan. I was diagnosed with low back arthritis two years ago and though my beekeeping days were over. I met with some good doctors and went through a physical therapy program and I'm doing great. I still have some back pain everyday, but its manageable. I do best when I'm consistent about exercising.
Limit your bending and twisting motion, use proper lifting technics.
Switching from full-depth supers to medium supers was a life saver.
If you will be doing a lot of heavy lifting on your trip to the bees bring along some help and let them do the lifting.
I also use knee pads when working with nucs or packages low to the ground. This helps me reduce the bending.
I agree with Gino45,on what we eat and how it effects our health.And it's so easy to change.
Dan, seven years ago I came down with RA and went from carrying 80# sacks of grain on each shoulder to being unable to lift a gallon of milk or button my shirt. My rhuematologist prescribed methotrexate and added Humera later. Now I am able to lead a normal life again. Take heart and push yourself to be as physically active as possible. Taking the new (expensive) biologicals will work wonders. RA has nothing at all in common with osteoarthritis and will attack every joint, muscle and organ if left untreated.
In the meantime, try to change over to smaller boxes, move single frames rather than moving whole boxes, build a bench to position behind hive and tilt boxes rather than lift them, partner with a good friend to help you. These changes will allow you to enjoy your bees until your RA goes into remission (stay hopeful).
Bristol, WI 7 mi N of IL 15 mi W Lake Michigan
23 years Treatments as needed.
Used to have help until my spouse had a systemic reaction. Just take it slow and transfer frames into nuc boxes to make lifting more feasible. I have a garden wagon also. Think of creative ways to reduce the weight of what you have to move/lift. Don't kick yourself if you need to come back another day due to fatigue or pain.
I have failed almost every RA drug out there. It's enough that my Rheumatologist ok'd trying the bee stings. My joints are already shot enough that I might be having a few replacements this year. As you can see, I'm still messing with bees, so don't let it get you down.
Hope you find relief and a treatment that works soon!
2013, 7 hives, T
Hope this helps..........
I agree on diet modification (not only eating what you should eat, but also avoiding what you should not eat). Nutrition is important for healing.
Apitherapy/BVT - bee venom therapy; but also taking the other products of the hive (honey, propolis, royal jelly, bee bread or pollen mixed with honey and let sit for 2 weeks before taking)
Check out herbals for nutrition and other health benefits.
Mild exercise, don't let it be painful. Try swimming if possible.
Drink water. Stay hydrated.
Consider a detox cleanse.
Check out calcium bentonite clay (edible for internal use or use the external for clay baths). Some people report help with arthritis. It's another way to detox and adds minerals to the body.
Pray and ask God for healing.
Wishing you well....
go to five frame mediums
WOW! Thanks everyone for the kind and helpful words. My journey is just beginning with RA and I am still in good shape. I can do most everything still, but it is painful. I just started sulfasalazine this past weekend. Its kind of creepy that in the past month I have felt increase in symptoms and its rapidly getting worse and spreading. Hope this drug helps stop that.
My overall health is great and I eat quite healthy. Not a tremendous amount of diet change I can make to do better. Up until 3 months ago I was a gym rat, almost daily. I stopped being able to do pushups and jumping jacks among other things, as it was mostly in my shoulder (now both). I was doing one armed jumping jacks and knew it was time to go see a doc of some sort.
Ill use some of the lifting ideas here, moving one frame at a time, having a wagon. those sorts of things are good ideas. A bit tricky for me to get a helper, though I am hoping my wife may assist more. She did a little last year until getting stung 3 times. As time goes on, I am happier and happier I went with 8 frame equipment for reasons such as this. Now if we could just start seeing spring to end this long cold winter..
I noticed this one late, but I'll throw in my 2 cents. My brother has RA, and I had a great Aunt who had it in my family. In my wife's family, her father and both of his siblings have it, and now my wife's brother does too.
In addition to the obvious "stay active and eat right" advice, the one thing I have determined from watching is that it is absolutely critical to get to a specialist who is up on the newest medications and will try Drug B, C, and/or D when Drug A is not working. It seems like everybody reacts differently to the different drugs. If you have a doctor who piddles around with drugs that don't work for you, the disease has an opportunity to create permanent damage to your body. My brother in particular has a lot of permanent joint damage and disfigurement because he was on the wrong stuff too long. If it were me, I would ask to be put on the new, expensive drugs right from the start. As somebody else mentioned, they can work wonders. Don't piddle around with old technology and let your body pay the price. You need a doctor with a pro-active, aggressive approach.
Second, even though I also mentioned diet and others have too, remember that one reason the diet aspects are important is that the drugs are really hard on your body, in the form of being hard on your liver and/or kidneys and suppressing the immune system. However, when you get on the right medication the advantages far outweigh the side effects.
Hang in there Dan. I've been dealing with RA for quite a few years. It's a difficult transition figuring out what your new limitations are, and having the patience to stick with it. That was the most challenging hurdle for me, coming to terms with what I had to give up and making life style changes to minimize irritation to the joints.
There have been many great suggestions on the thread. You may want to also look into the "nightshades", and eliminate them from your diet to see if that offers you any relief. Bee sting therapy has helped me quite a bit too.
Switching to mediums, if you haven't already, will help too.
To everything there is a season....
I know this is a old question but I also know without a few stings I would be a lot worse than I am now. I am 75 yrs old

As if our anonymous source(s) within Asus haven't already done a good enough job of slipping us Eee Box information, we've now managed to get our hands on a few snippets regarding the rumoured Eee PC 904 and 905.
First, we can tell you that there is no Eee PC 905 that anyone inside Asus has heard of. Second on our debunking list is the suggestion that the 904 would replace the 901 - it won't. Asus is responding to customer feedback and offering both the option of a large keyboard or a smaller chassis.
The information we have also suggests the 904 will come with hard drives, rather than SSD storage and that pricing will be in the £269 inc. VAT region. Better still the Eee PC 904 isn't a distant sighting and should, so our source says, be hitting the channel within the next two weeks.
While on the subject of pricing and shipping information, we're told that the Eee PC 901 should be in the UK "from this weekend onwards" at £299 inc. VAT. We also hear that the delays that occurred to the Eee PC 1000 have now been resolved and that those systems should be available "from next week {at the} latest".
