So, only crocuses blooming so far- no willow, maple, daffodils, or fruit trees yet.
We have another big cold snap coming next week, but when that is over I will put out my 6 tubes of cocoons in the nesting boxes.
Today I put up my two new mason bee nesting boxes, facing southeast, protected under the eaves of the porch, where they get fun morning sun:
The top box I bought from Dave's Bees - he is a forum member here. It arrived with all its parchment paper liners neatly installed in the drilled wooden tunnels, ready to go.
The other two 'cans' of cardboard nesting tubes with paper liners and a wooden box to set them in came from Seedcake.com. I also ordered 6 tubes full of cocoons from them.
Notice I added a bit of black roofing paper to the tops of the two boxes to keep the rain out, and I also secured chicken wire guards to protect the nesting tubes from marauding woodpeckers. We do have woodpeckers all year here in our yard.
I'll be taking the cocoons out of the refrigerator and installing them in with the cans as soon as this coming cold snap is ending. By that time there should be enough things blooming for the to forage ok. Only another week or two to go!

It appears as if AMD's Barcelona woes will carry over into the new year. After the new quad-core processor's launch was delayed half a year due to what company CEO Hector Ruiz called "technical problems," widespread shipments have now hit another production snag on account of a technical glitch known in the processor industry as an erratum.
The news isn't a revelation for anyone who tuned into AMD's Q3 earnings call, where executives acknowledged that its initial ramp of Barcelona was likely to be slower than expected. On Friday, however, AMD reaffirmed that its quad-core Opteron chips (formerly known as Barcelona) won't go mainstream until Q1 of next year. Indeed, the ones that are shipping now have all been earmarked for customers in the server and desktop segments, AMD says. In other words, don't expect to pick up an quad-core Opteron at Newegg until January at the earliest.
The reason for the slower-than-expected commercial roll-out, according to the chipmaker, has something to do with misbehaving Translation Lookaside Buffers, which are parts of the microarchitecture that improve access to system memory.
According to AMD's Phil Hughes, to date, none of AMD's customers have had TLB issues with the chips, but the company has nevertheless issued a BIOS fix and plans to address this issue at the silicon level early next year.
"When any high-performance processor starts shippping, there's always errata," Hughes says. "It's very common and you usually address (them) through software or microcode patch. We did a BIOS fix," he says.
What's interesting here is that Intel had what looks to be a similar problem with its Core 2 processors earlier this year. Apparently, AMD's chief rival solved the problem quickly with a BIOS fix, as well.Go Back to Top. Skip To: Start of Article.

Technical Abstract: Two genetic lines of White Leghorn hens were selected for high (HGPS) and low (LGPS) group productivity and survivability resulting from cannibalism and flightiness. The aim of this study was to examine whether the selection alters the hens' immunity and hematology in response to social stress. At 17 wk of age, hens were randomly assigned into single- and 2- hen cages. The 2-hen cages contained one from the HGPS or LGPS and one from a commercial Dekalb XL line that was used as standardized genetic competitor. At 24 wk of age, blood samples were collected from 70 hens (10 hens from 3 line X 2 experiments, including 10 extra testers). In single- hen cages, compared to HGPS hens, LGPS hens had a significantly higher heterophil/lymphocyte (H/L) ratio (P<0.01). In addition, LGPS hens had greater numbers of eosinophils (P<0.01). In 2-hen cages, when compared with these same lines in the single-hen status, LGPS hens exhibited a heterophilia, and the ratio of H/L was significantly increased (P<0.01). In addition, although both HGPS and LGPS hens had an eosinophilia in 2-hen cages, a more intense increase was found in LGPS hens (P<0.001). In contrast, HGPS hens had a greater increase in the concentrations of IgG in 2-hen cages vs. single-hen cages (P<0.01). The data indicate that genetic selection results in differential regulation of immunity and hematology in response to stress between the HGPS and LGPS lines. Upregulation of IgG and stability of H/L ratio in the HGPS hens could be associated with their better adaptation to stressors reported previously.

UPDATE: Wilder has posted a video of the webinar mentioned below. END OF UPDATE.
Here are three southern Minnesota counties with substantially different percentages of foreign-born residents:
Freeborn — 3.4 percent.
Watonwan — 8.0 percent.
Nobles — 12.2 percent.
The state figure is 6.7 percent. So, what's the crime rate in each of those counties?
Hint: Although crime and criminals frequently enter the conversation about immigration in the U.S. (you don't have to go to Arizona to hear this), the foreign-born percentage in those three counties won't give you a clue.
In fact, serious crimes are committed at the rate of between 1,700 and 1,800 a year per 100,000 residents in each of the three (an extrapolation, of course, since the populations are well below 100,000). That's a rate lower than it was in 2000 and it's just over half the rate for the state as a whole. It's well below the rate of other outstate counties that have relatively low percentages of foreign-born residents.
These few paragraphs are hardly an exhaustive debate about crime and immigration but they offer a way to start examining perceptions and evidence, to look for the stories that might say more.
That, to me, is the value of the trove of data compiled by Wilder Research in its Minnesota Compass database. The site brings together lots of quality-of-life indicators regarding age, education, public safety, the environment, transportation and more, all of which can offer ways to guide conversations for people trying to make their communities better places to live.
Wilder recently built up the portion dealing with immigration, which is where I pulled these numbers from. Wilder is showing that portion of Minnesota Compass off in a webinar at 11 a.m. Wednesday, July 21, and asked me to moderate an online discussion about immigration with Tim Penny, CEO and president of the Southern Minnesota Initiative; Marcy Costello, a native of Peru and a board member of the Southwest Initiative Foundation; and Don Hickman, senior program manager for the Initiative Foundation in central Minnesota.
It should be a good conversation about how Minnesota communities can deal with the opportunities, the tension, the change that immigration brings and about how to get your hands on data that can inform — worth an hour of your time. Find out more by going here. You can register to join in here.
After that, Minnesota Public Radio News' Michael Caputo will continue the conversation online at Insight Now, the place he's building as a great place to join intelligent conversations about topics affecting Minnesotans' lives.

Exterior Paint: Duration, Superpaint, Manor Hall, or Timeless?
The exterior of our house desperately needs repainting, so we've gotten bids from a few contractors. Each one gave us an estimate for a couple of different paints of his choosing. Now, we're trying to figure out which of the paints would be best.
We live in a mostly dry desert climate that does get rain and snow in the winter. Temps range from about 5 degrees (winter) to 115 degrees (July). Sun/fading is an issue.
We'd like to keep the cost down, of course, but want to get a paint that actually lasts (unlike the stuff that's on our house now, which started peeling after just a year).
We're leaning toward one of two contractors who recommend Sherwin-Williams Superpaint or Duration, or Pittsburgh Manor Hall or Timeless. I've read quite a bit on this forum about Superpaint and Duration (most seem to like those) but not much about Manor Hall or Timeless.
Which of these paints do you recommend and why? Is the Duration or Timeless worth the extra cost over the Superpaint or Manor Hall?
I was running the manor hall interior exterior gloss for a long time inside for trim. I just recently switched my trim paint back to ICI dulux because the manor hall would'nt blend into itself very well.
What i mean by that is, i do new construction and when spraying metel doors wainscott ect, multiple coats like a quick fog coat would never blend into itself. For Exterior i almost always go with the Dulux.
I understand you will probably not be having your exterior sprayed, yet another concern will be that manor hall dries so dang quick ( which is what i think the problem i have been having with it is ) that a additive like floetrol for "latex" would be advised.
On my personal note i sprayed trim in the last house with dulux and did not have any of the problems i had with manor hall. Also their exterior manor hall may be different, but i doubt it.
Thanks for the info!
The two contractors would be spraying the outside of the house (they've proposed two coats of the Superpaint or Manor Hall, or one coat of Duration or Timeless), with backrolling only in certain areas. That's okay, isn't it?
From what you wrote, it sounds like the Manor Hall wouldn't be the best choice for spraying, though ...
What's your house made of?
Well, sided with actually....
It's a fiberboard siding, cottage lap. It already has one coat of paint on it that was put on when the house was built.
if you want to paint the house..i would add thermilate paint additive to your paint mix it well in... paint on the exterior it will help keep heat out..it reflects the heat away..or paint it inside to keep heat in...
hope it helps..i live in the uk and its cold most of the time and applied it to the interior which helped keep heat in..

text: Perhaps the Boy Scout camp needs to rethink it's fund-raiser activities or seek to invite neighbors to attend or assist. When reasonable people discuss a problem, reasonable agreements to resolve the problem can be reached. However, it sounds like from the articles here, that neighbors want absolutely no shooting at all. Now, did they not know the range was there when they took up residence, or is the range a newcomer? If the former, then some tolerance is required. If the latter, then some efforts to contain noise might be necessary. The sheriff may have only been doing his job as he saw it in responding to the complaints, but the first article did not color it that way. The second article hardly mentions the sheriff at all except for the Hamas comment which tells me the sheriff needs to put brain in gear before he opens his mouth to the press. Perhaps reasonable accomodations can be made for all parties involved, although, these days, too many times lawyers get involved and nothing reasonable seems to come from that.

I love you with all my heart but sometimes you drive me argghhh!!! I can imagine it's probably not easy for you to accept this
… But you're going to have to…
I'm 21
Not 1 or 11… 21
Old enough to choose to take a plane to
Old enough to get married and have a dozen kids if I so pleased
Old enough to go out and come home later than 11pm without getting locked out and having you document what minute of what hour I get in
I know you've done your best
In your lifetime, you've been through things that would make a lesser woman crumble
You've fought for yourself, you've fought for me… you've fought
But it's time to just sit back and breathe mummy
You've raised me well enough that you should trust that I can take care of myself sometimes… that I have some common sense, discretion… some smarts
You can't protect me from life mummy cos if you do… it'll sneak up on me
And maybe then I won't be prepared.
I'm 21 mummy… let me breathe.

This experiment will explore how manipulating a graph of historical information might reveal new information about data.
Research Questions:
-Is there a cycle to the rise and decay of sunspots?
-How do sunspots behave over time?
Sunspots are disturbed areas of the sun that look like spots because they are cooler than the surface of the sun. They have been observed and recorded since the 18th Century. This large collection of data can be used to look for patterns and possible equations to how sunspots work.
- Computer
- Spreadsheet software
Experimental Procedure
- Search for the historical sunspot data online. Put this information (or at least several decades) into a spreadsheet, with one column being dates and the other being the sunspot number recorded.
- Use the program to make a graph of this data.
- Look for potential patterns. A cycle should appear, one that recurs about every 11 years. Note the values for the start, finish, and peak of each cycle. Compare the numbers for different cycles.
- Using the spreadsheet or a graphing calculator, see if an equation can be derived for individual cycles. Manipulating the scale and axis of the graph might clarify the data.
- Analyze this new data. Do sunspots follow mathematical principles?
Concepts: statistics, sunspots, derivatives

The Harris County Hospital District dedicated its newest pediatric facility — Pediatric and Adolescent Health Center-Cypress — on June 29. The new location marks the hospital district's farthest expansion into northwestern Harris County.
More than 80 people attended a ribbon-cutting ceremony. Among the featured speakers included Harris County Commissioner Jack Cagle and HCHD President and CEO David S. Lopez.
"I welcome you to this part of the county and know that your presence in the community will be well received by all the residents of northwest Harris County," Cagle told the crowd.
The new 6,860-square-foot facility has 12 exam rooms and two consultation rooms for behavioral health and psychiatry. The center is expected to treat about 10,000 patient visits annually. Among the services available to children up to the age of 18 are:
The center located at 12340 Jones Road, Suite 100, Houston, Texas, 77070, operates 8 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. To accommodate all children needs, all forms of insurance including CHIP (children's state-subsidized insurance) and Medicaid are accepted.

I guess I'll take that risk of kickback if I can get a little more performance. Just not sure how much to move it. Maybe just move it halfway and test it.

i think i heard that ct had plates that are adjustable and esr's are not. someone correct me if i'm wrongI never got a chance to see if ESR plate on my bro-inlaws bike has any advance built in.
I have heard by some that it does and others that it does not.
I believe it does not and if you advnce it all the way you probably get 4-5 degrees without making the slots longer.
On my cr500 w/2000 cr250 stator I have been able to slot it enough to get 8 degrees of advance
On CR motors the clutch arm pushes against the side of the stator where the piece of metal on the right side is. If I advance any more than the arm will push out when pulling in the clutch.
TRX motors don't need this arm stop so you can advance farther.
has anyone done any more with the ignition curves. I just had my bike on the dyno(310 cc) and the dyno guy said it is in need or more ignition timing on the top end. Engine made max power at 8400 rpm. I am running the cr250 ignition curve. Maybe I just need to advance it up the the 8 degrees that was talked about in this thread.
No added advance on the ESR mounting plates.
Advance in 2 degree increments until close, 1 degree to fine tune.
Start with the CR250R Timing curve, then try the CR125R Curve, and then for top performance develop your own curve.
What pipe are you using ?

Replacing Stair Kneewall Studs?
Good afternoon all, I have a medium effort project ahead of me that is confusing me a bit.
The kneewall of my stairs (which back to an understair closet) has been damaged or poorly designed at some point, and has a significant bow to it (2.5 + inches in and out in some places). Due to some other construction im doing around, I need that wall to be straight.
In order to determine why it was bowed, I first supported the stairs internally with a structural I-beam made out of 4x4s bolted into every place possible in order to secure the stairs from shifting at all. While they are level, and in good condition, I didnt want to risk them shifting when i took out the kneewall, even though it shouldnt be bearing any load at all.
Here's a photo of the stair wall on the right:
Upon taking apart the outside of the wall (which i hated to do, as its beautiful original plaster under the wallpaper, albeit quite cracked from the bowing), i found a situation that confused me.
The stringer in on the outside of the wall studs, and they are securely fastened with a lot of 10-penny nails to said stringer. If i didnt know better, id thing the studs were supporting the stringer with how securely they attached them. Two of the studs are broken, and one is just poorly installed, set back almost an inch and a half behind the others. This one creates the majority of the bow in the wall.
My best attempt at 3d drawings of the situation:
Blue are studs, with the sections in red being rotten/cracked/bad
Green are load bearing house timbers
red is the stringers.
Since i need to replace that wall, and have the stairs very securely supported with the bolted in I-beam structure, even though the stringer should stand on its own without that, Am I safe to remove that wall so that i may rebuild it?
Ifso, what is the best way to do it without torquing the stringer that it is so securely attached to.
A side note, is that the stringer is rough hewn, so the bottom isnt flat. Thus, no attaching studs to the bottom of the stringer.
Let me know if the images dont work, a lot of image hosting sites are blocked here at my work, and its hard to tell
The pictures didn't come through.
The 4x4 beam you installed might work fine as long as it is secure to the top, pitch cut to the load bearing wall at the top of the stairs, and sitting on the floor at the bottom of the stairs. Does the stringer itself have a bow in it or is it just the wall.
After looking at that first pic again, I t looks like the wall is built on the outside of the stringer. Your models show it on the inside of the stringer, are there two walls?
The studs are definitely inside the stringer, however they had an inch to inch and a half of plaster and lathe on them, making them even with the stringer edge, which only has a very thin piece of trim on it.
Rough drawing of it:
it consists of a I shape on the floor, bolted to the large support joists of the house, with two pillars coming off it, which go up to meet the central stair stringer (nonstructural stringer, not pinned at either end. The shape of the top of the support pillars is such that it meets the angle of the stringer, as well as extends on both side of it and hits the tread
As for the stringer being bowed, its hard to tell thus far, but I dont think so
