I can say that NC does not have castle doctrine yet. I have heard rumour that it has been or will be proposed.
As for the Duraham area in particular, I can't give you any details. I live a little further west of there and avoid Raleigh like the plague (I hate cities and the traffic that goes with them).

I was wondering how labor intensive a hand extractor would be. How long would it take to extract a certain number of frames and how tiring is it for the average person?
I was wondering how labor intensive a hand extractor would be. How long would it take to extract a certain number of frames and how tiring is it for the average person?
I have an electric one and leave it on for about 20 minutes, if that is any help. I have never used a hand operated one. Looks to me that a lot of honey would be left in the comb.
I have one, it holds two frames at a time. I used it twice, back when I only had about a half-dozen 10-frame supers to extract. It was quite wearing, especially on my right arm and shoulder (I'm right handed). Now that I have more than twenty supers to process, I am crushing and straining. After harvesting I plan to solar melt the wax, then prepare the frames for reuse so the bees will build new comb in the foundationless frames. And only use the old wax for purposes other than returning to use inside a beehive. I may not use the hand cranked extractor again, unless I motorize it.
48 years - 50 hives - TF
Joseph Clemens -- Website Under Constructioni
When I was just beginning to learn about bees a friend had us over for a "hand cranking" party. There's a reason for that. Cranking is a lot of work if you have a lot of frames.
We have a big motorized one and love it! If you can afford the additional cost I'd go for motorized. We fill it up and spin for about 5-10 minutes. The frames are almost dry!
I've got a 2 frame manual extractor. It does take a while to do. I do pay my kids to spin it, that helps immensely. It would take half the time if I had a motorized one, that is on my wish list, but for now it isn't worth the couple of afternoons that it would gain me. Sure, some honey is left behind, but then the bees will clean and consolidate that for the next time I extract.
It takes me pretty much 8 hours to extract 10-15 supers, but that is uncapping with a serrated knife and includes pulling supers, blowing bees, filtering, futzing, lunch, cool drinks, cleaning, etc.
If you have the $$$ and opportunity, get a bigger motorized at least.
hand crank extractors are a lot of fun to watch someone else crank. The kids thought it was fun to until they figured out the new extractor game I brought home wasnt so much fun afterall. At that point I bought a motorized extractor.
I've got two extractors -- one motorized, the other hand cranked. Both are four frame machines. I tend to use the hand crank one more. I can control the speed better and I think I get a better extraction. Once you have it spinning, it only takes a little effort to keep it going. I can actually hand spin it faster than the motorized one operates, so the combs are drier. The problem is that cranking by hand takes time that you may not have available. If you have a lot of honey, hand extracting probably takes too much time and may be too wearing on your arm. With a motorized machine, you can uncap the next batch of frames while the extractor is running.
I would say motorized starts making a lot of sense if you are up to 6 or 8 hives.
Linux - World domination through world cooperation
We have a 4 frame extractor and it is a work out!! It is a good thing, if you only have a few supers to extract. As we continue to expand out operation, I forsee a bigger motorized machine in the future. It does a good job and cleans out the frames but after 10 supers my arms were about to fall off. It is hard to pay the difference for the motorized outfits but they have to be worth it!
life is like a box of chocolates,you never know what you are gonna get
I have a manual tangential 4 frame extractor - having opened the cells with a uncapping fork it takes less than a minuite of spinning each side to extract the contents. I turn the frames twice.
It takes longer to remove the cappings.
I start slowly and spin progressively faster with my foot on the rim to hold it down - eventually spinning as fast as possible - it certainly is a work out.
They are pretty much empty after this.
I use a borrowed hand extractor and find it quite easy to use for the few supers I have. As GB said, I find uncapping to be more work than spinning the extractor.
I started out with a 9 frame hand crank. The positives include the following:
- cost half as much as a similar motorized unit so if you test the waters at a lower cost
- easy to find used since most upgrade if they add hives
- lightweight and easy to store (also could be a negative)
- kids like to spin them
The negatives I came across were:
- easy to outgrow if your time is one of your main resources. i think some supply houses recommend 25 hives or less for a 9 frame hand crank. i think i would recommend 8 or less but then again your time resources influence your opinion. i know my wife would like for me to get it all done in a day so it reduces the chance of honey getting tracked into the house.
- lightweight...you have to go to extra measures to make sure the extractor does not hop around when its spinning.
- from what i have seen a lot of beekeepers don't keep a hand crank long and upgrade to a motorized unit so the investment is not as much a bang for buck as it seems.
That being said, I used the 9 frame hand crank for one year then replaced it with a Maxant motorized 20 frame and really glad I made the investment. I sold 7 hives to pay for it. Of course now my bottleneck is uncapping but I am still cranking out more honey per hour.
Hughes Honey Apiary
I've used a two-frame tang for a few years now and am in the market for a 9-frame radial, but still hand-cranked. Mainly due to cost and weight (no dedicated honey house). I don't mind the hand-spinning. And I don't think it would be terribly difficult to motorize one yourself with a modicum of DIY; I've seen a lot of creatively (and safely and effectively) motorized malt mills in homebrewing circles. Used washing machine motors are cheap and widely available for example.
If I end up motorizing, I've been working on designs for using a bicycle on a trainer stand to power it; the bike provides the clutch and I can tap some of my exercise-freak friends .
Bees, brews and fun
in Lyons, CO
I started out with a 2-frame tangential and added a 4-frame tangential to work when the 2-frame was draining. Both required reversing. Then I used the 2-frame while the 4-frame was draining. This worked well up through 60 colonies. But my shoulder was beginning to feel the strain.
Then I bumped up to a 20-frame motorized radial. I bought it used for $700
I think the actual time spent spinning is about equal. The tangential will shoot honey out of the frame faster, due to the angle of the cell with respect to the centrifigal force. But that time saved is lost by reversing, and customarily, I spin lightly on the first side, then reverse. I spin the second side harder, then reverse back to the first side and give it a final spin. This saves blow-outs on wax/wired frames.
There was, in my mind, a master plan to load my motorized 20-frame, then uncap while it ran. I think my current bottleneck is when I have to stop to unload one set of frames to load the next set.
Jackson, MO
Beekeeping With Twenty-five Hives: https://www.createspace.com/4152725
I've got a Kelly 2 frame reversable hand crank. I've been extracting for 2 years and it works great. I used it this weekend on 12 supers and 1 deep. We were done extracting in 2 hours. I put nine frames in 10 frame supers so they are easier to uncap. I also use a heated knife I got from Bjorn off of Ebay. It's a 3 person process but we all have fun.
As a kid in TX a few of the neighbors would get together after deer season and make sausage together. You got to catch up with everyone while you worked together. Before you knew it you were done and you had strengthened the family bonds and actually had fun with what could be considered a chore.
Ninja, is not in the dictionary. Well played Ninja's, well played...
I have 33 hives, and a two frame manual extractor. If you have the money, and more than six hives, for God's sake, get a motorized extractor. You will thank yourself later.

Discussion in 'The Coffee Shop ~ Chit Chat' started by ChevyFan, Sep 18, 2006.
I'm so excited! South Arlington, Texas. Matlock near Mansfield. 7-11!!!
Paid $2.11 yesterday actually!
$1.98 at the Walmart in south arlington now.
Still $2.29 here in Miane.
We never get as low as you guys in the south, you are closer to the refineries.
Let me tell you, it sure feels nice to go fill up and not have to spend $50+
Gas prices
The most I put in my 94 'Burb at one time was $105. Now prices are down to $2 -2.10 in s. MS but the 'Burb has been parked under a tree for the past couple of months.
Re: Gas prices
We can't park ours, you can't fit much feed or shavings in a Fiero. 2-50 lb bags in the trunk and 2 in the passenger seat.
Not to mention moving goats around.
Still with a 42 gallon tank if you let it get lower than 1/2 tank you are looking at $50 plus.
That's a funny image. I'd pay good money to see someone haul a goat around in a fiero!
I filled up the Trailblazer this morning and it just would not hit $30! I got just about 15 gallons and the grand total was $29.30 or so.
Goats in Fiero
How much is it worth to you?
Melanie said US dollars only, no pesos.
Picture will be posted later. Melanie and Amanda and a goat.
Do we get a bonus for multiple goat?
That should teach you to say something like that.
I'd pay even more $$ if the goat were behind the wheel.

Pledge a Religious Exercise that Excludes Nonreligious
The Freedom From Religion Foundation and its family of local plaintiffs will appeal the decision last week by U.S. District Judge Steven J. McAuliffe, District of New Hampshire, to dismiss their challenge of a state law requiring daily recitation of the religious Pledge of Allegiance in public schools. Plaintiffs include a Hanover couple, "Jan and Pat Doe," who are atheist and agnostic respectively, and are members of the Foundation with three children in the public schools. The Foundation, on behalf of its New Hampshire members, is a plaintiff.
The plaintiffs' suit, filed in October 2007, named Congress and three local school districts. Members of Congress intervened, as did the Knights of Columbus and a variety of individual religionists. The judge in the case was married to Christa McAuliffe, the teacher who died in the space shuttle disaster of 1986. The Foundation's attorney, Michael Newdow, of Sacramento, made international headlines when the 9th U.S. Court of Appeals ruled in his favor in 2002 that "under God" in school pledges was unconstitutional.
Circuit Judge Alfred T. Goodwin, a 79-year-old Richard Nixon appointee, famously wrote: "A profession that we are a nation 'under God' is identical to a profession that we are a nation 'under Jesus,' a nation 'under Vishnu,' a nation 'under Zeus,' or a nation 'under no god.' " That historic ruling was vacated after the Supreme Court invalidated Newdow's standing. Newdow, an emergency room doctor who moonlights as a state/church attorney, relaunched the lawsuit in California, which he won at the district court level. The appeal of his victory by California schools has sat at the 9th Circuit for more than two years. The Foundation's New Hampshire case was filed two years ago in October.
Annie Laurie Gaylor, Foundation co-president, said, "We strongly disagree with McAuliffe's characterization of 'under God' in the pledge as 'a permissible acknowledgment of the nation's religious heritage and character.' This ignores the history of the pledge. It was written in 1892 by a liberal clergyman with no references to a god. Only in 1954, after lobbying by the Knights of Columbus and other religious groups, did Congress tamper with the pledge, ruin the rhythm and divide our previously indivisible nation by inserting 'under God.' We further disagree that our founders would not have considered the godly reference to be an establishment of religion, as the judge claims," Gaylor added. "Our founders left god out of the Constitution. Our founders adopted a secular motto, 'E Pluribus Unum,' and they didn't pray at the constitutional convention, which shows intent."
Dan Barker, Foundation co-president, criticized the court's suggestion that the Pledge of Allegiance has to be considered "as a whole." McAuliffe compared "under God" in the pledge to nativity displays on public land approved by the Supreme Court because they include "secular trimmings," Barker noted. "This is throwing aside 70 years of passionate precedent by the Supreme Court conferring special protections upon the rights of schoolchildren to be free from government-fostered religion."
The judge agreed a one-time prayer at a public commencement ceremony would be constitutionally intolerable, yet overlooked the fact that nonreligious children are subject to a daily religious recitation that ties patriotism to godliness. Even though the law permits children to abstain, the daily message of government endorsement of belief in a god cannot be escaped, Barker added.
"We thank Mike Newdow, who is very brilliant and very dedicated, and has generously undertaken this litigation on a contingency basis, with the Foundation paying only costs," Gaylor said.
"We are also grateful for the determination and commitment of our New Hampshire parent plaintiffs, without whom the case could not be taken," added Barker. The Foundation also thanks the New England donor who has contributed toward legal costs.

Ask a Trooper: Be prepared when stopped by an officer
Question: What items do police officers ask you for when you are stopped? I see on television that it is different sometimes like in different states.
Answer: "License and registration Ma'am" isn't always the case, that's for sure. I am asked this question frequently and I am happy to answer it for you yet once again, especially since we have so many enforcement projects going on.
In Minnesota, officers typically ask you for two things. The first thing is a valid Minnesota driver license. The second thing is your current proof of insurance. If you don't have your driver license with you as required by law, then the officer will ask for another form of picture identification and will run your information on the computer for status, warrants and other issues.
As for the insurance proof, the law requires you to carry proof of current insurance for the vehicle you are operating, so that if you are stopped by an officer you will have it available when asked. The insurance proof must contain the vehicle identification information (including make, model and year) as well as the effective and expiration dates of the policy. The date you are stopped has to be within those dates. Carrying around the same card for long periods of time after expiration does not satisfy the law requirements. Officers typically cite you for not having proof of insurance, then you have to settle with the court on the matter, so it pays to keep the current insurance proof in your vehicle so it can be shown to police by the driver if stopped. If you don't have it now, get a copy from your insurance agent. Electronic proof is now acceptable by law.
Registration cards do not need to be carried in a regular passenger vehicle. If you are operating a commercial motor vehicle, then they do and an officer will ask for that as well. Any other information that is asked of a motorist on a traffic stop will depend on the totality of the circumstances surrounding the contact incident.
After giving you all of this information, I just want to say that of course, driving at safe speeds and always buckling up (including your passengers) are simple ways to avoid a roadside chat with an officer.
If you have any questions for future columns concerning motor vehicle traffic in Minnesota, please send your questions to: "ASK A TROOPER" c/o Sgt. Curt S. Mowers, Minnesota State Patrol, 7694 Industrial Park Road, Suite 2 Baxter, MN 6425 or email questions to email@example.com with Ask a Trooper in the subject line. Questions are edited.

Solid NAS 10/31/2009
This review is from: QNAP TS-809 PRO-US Turbo NAS
Large capacity, quiet, tons of features. The uPnP server works extremely well, I was able to turn off my uPnP server, and just use the one built into the NAS.
You are at Qnap's mercy in terms of the software you can run on the NAS. Their available QPKG software packages are great, but each piece of software is updates as part of the firmware, not on it's own. So you are forced to use the version of the software they have available, not the version that you want to use.
Other Thoughts:
It's overkill, but then, I used to think my Terastation was overkill when I bought that 10 years ago (For the same amount I spent on this unit, including the HD's). I am a firm believe in you get what you pay for. When it comes to hardware you intend to use for many years, spending the extra money is well worth it. I did buy a discounted unit that has been opened/ returned to newegg tho. (I don't mind spending money, but I am not going to pass up a deal). So thanks to one of the negative reviewers that returned their unit, it now has a good home and it is working wonderfully.
P.S. Please send me the key for the drive bay doors.

guysssssss got a dilema on my hands, after polishin with the da yesterday and then a wax, when i look at it today the paint looks smudgy and cloudy (oily looking)
guysssssss got a dilema on my hands, after polishin with the da yesterday and then a wax, when i look at it today the paint looks smudgy and cloudy (oily looking)
What have you put on it ? did you do it in the sun? have you got any pics
i was using the megs 2nd stage polish and after the megs wax.
when i started doing it, the weather was hot but no sun,an then half way through the sun popped out, but i just continued, have i damaged the paint?
did you wipe of the surplus with a micro fibre cloth. The surface should really be cool to the touch when you work on it.
If you go on you tube there are some very good megs demos on there.
the surface wasnt quite cool, it was warm/hotish can this be fixed?
To be honest I have never had this problem. Now you have the wax on it is all sealed up.
You should be ok? Is it just on the top ? or sides as well.
Silly question but did you shake the bottles well before use.
I am wondering if you should wash one panel with washing up liquid and start again.
When I say wash with washing up liquid I mean mixed with water.
its the sides which look bad, the rest is fine
It may have had new paint work on the sides? Is this the one you got the other day
It would be good if you could get a pic up

...and a mule to haul it. :)
I would also suggest you keep in down to 40-50lbs without guns and ammo
Dont have a bug out bag since Im likely to stay and fight in one of those SHTF scenarios, but I do have a survival bag. ALICE pack with 9 MREs, camelbak, 1 lt canteen, water buffalo, 2 led flashlights+batteries, 30 foot length of rope, flint stick, matches, lighter+refill, 4 foil blankets, pup tent, change of BDUs, bayonet & field strip knife set, 5 tournequets, bar soap, a few towels and extra .40 & .22 mags with ammo in a few ziploc bags. I might have some 7.62x54R in it too. I take it with me when i take my yearly weeklong hike on the Superior Hiking Trail, long road trips and hunting. Though when I hunt, I leave it in my truck and bring the tournaquets and the camelbak unless the weather looks crappy or Im humpin it a long diatance. Its also my storm kit since we get lots of tornadoes up here. Not too much, but its manageable even with an ankle sprain and it allows for about 2 weeks assuming I dont find or shoot anything edible. Dont have to worry about looking for water around here, its everywhere lol. Only thing Im looking to add is a flare gun since i prefer to keep it light.
Might give you an idea of somebody elses gear in case you look at switching up a few items. BTW, Im assuming car broken down, house fire or being wounded when I packed it. What you can carry kind of depends on your physical condition though.
2 compasses would be ideal since one of them is lying. Another thing you can do is follow a river or stream downstream. They almost always lead to larger waterways which lead to civilization. At the worst if it leads to a remote lake, its a fresh water source and eventually something you can eat will walk into your crosshairs.
Im assuming youre either lost or hiding in the wilderness.
That's RIGHT. If your goal is SURVIVAL the Teriyaki & Rice is the one to stay away from. :gah: You are trying to survive and that one will plain out kill you.
Thank You for mentioning that. I must have blocked that one out of my brain.
That one IS the worst one. The Teriyaki & Rice. Most of the other ones are pretty decent decent. I couldn't eat that one either.
Pasta Alfredo is good. Cheesy Lasangna is pretty good. Creamy Chicken Al La King & rice was good.
Creamy Tomato Basil...pass on that one - terrible.
The Chili Macaroni some kids liked but, I wasn't crazy about it.
Savory Stroganoff was good.
Those are about all the ones I've tried from their emergency pak.
Thanks for the suggestions guys, keep them coming!

Sunblock and Ziplock bags
Toilet paper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So many of the suggestions remind me of backpacking as a young adult . I would suggest a nice heavy plastic bag. You can put the pack it it, poke holes where pack straps go through and your stuff is dry in a downpour. If you can't fit the pack in your shelter I would even strap the pack to a tree with the plastic bag on it my stuff was dry.
This is going to sound absurd to some of y'all but I did a hiking trip a few years back and the whole group of 11 had not one sheet of toilet paper. Leave no trace guidelines prefer no TP so we were told not to bring it. We used sticks and rocks.... Now I know some/most/all of you are cringing in pain but I swear that it wasn't bad at all. I preferred rocks. All it took was a little planning before you did your business and you were fine.
.22 pistol wth suppressor for quiet shots without alerting everyone in a 2 mile radius.
I pack a small plastic bottle of biodegradable camp soap. It's lighter than a bar of soap and it lasts a long time.

Either if you are a widget nerd or you have never heard of them, you should take a look at HD Widgets. It's probably one of the most complete and most personalizable widget app on the store.
No matter if what you want is handy widgets for power toggles, clock or weather info. HD widgets includes all of them. But, and here comes the best part, it doesn't bring up presets of widgets: you can tweak background, switch type, active color, labels, text and icons so you create unique custom widgets.
In addition, there are dozens of theme packs you can download directly from the app and take advantage of presets other have build for the community. Oh, community, the magic word. HD Widgets has its own (and very active) community where you can ask anything and contribute with your own creations.
I can't finish this review without mentioning its excellent tutorial for both beginners, intermediate and advanced widget users.

How my daughters are furthering my education via Minecraft
May 30, 2014 @ 6:00 pm | Filed under: Family, Fun Learning Stuff, These People Crack Me Up
I mentioned that the kids and I share a Minecraft world. Its name is Calpurnia, after a favorite book. When I got a dog in the game, Rose offered to name it for me. The next time I logged in, "Darwin" was running around my attic—Darwin because of Calpurnia Tate, get it?
Then I wound up with a second dog. It ran around my house nameless for a day or two; then one day I returned home from a grueling shift at the ruined castle we're building in the mushroom forest, and there, wagging its tail alongside Darwin, was "Newton," newly monikered by Beanie. It seems I'm raising a bunch of scientist dogs, which is fine by me.
One day I accidentally fed both Darwin and Newton too many pork chops at the same time, and you know what that means: a puppy. I couldn't wait for this new pooch to grow up, so I could see what name the girls would give it.
When I came home this afternoon, half dead after a skeleton ambush, the pup was waiting beside the front door, all grown up and sporting a new blue collar. Her name was Annie, the hover-text informed me. I was a little surprised that the girls hadn't continued the scientist theme.
Shows what I know.
Rose, evidently aware of this gap in my education, had helpfully left some signage on the living-room carpet:
The dog's name is Annie 'cause of Annie Jump Cannon, who
was one of the greatest female scientists; she organized the
stars. We still use her system today. Also, she was deaf.
I learned a lot more about Annie (the human, not the canine) after I logged off. She featured in a recent episode of Cosmos and my girls were quite impressed by her accomplishments. Her lifetime spanned the period between the Civil War and World War II, and as Rose explained, she was instrumental in the creation of the star classification system that is still in use today.
The girls have yet to account for the pig in my living room.

This is making me really, really miss Glitch and worldbuilding with my kids.
Unfortunately, Minecraft is right out for me because 3D movement onscreen gives me nausea and headaches. (I tried watching my brother play and it was hopeless.)
Hehe. I can't wait for summer vacation so my daughter and I can play more Minecraft…and more WOW. I love the theme your daughters have come up with for naming pets.
I don't know about where you live, but up here in the PNW, parents either let their kids play nothing but Minecraft or they are scared to let their kids play it at all. I have tried talking to several parents about what an educational tool it can be. My opinions have only fallen on deaf ears.
Oh well. Can't wait to see what your girls come up with next!
My youngest two are re-bonding with the oldest (who lives six hours away) through Minecraft. Never thought a game could do that- so thrilled 🙂
QoC, I'm with you. Glitch was absolutely perfect for 3D-averse players. I miss it!
K, major shift happening. You just won the Awesomest Mom medal in my mind. Whenever my kids start in telling me about Minecraft I automatically tune them out and smile and nod (and inwardly cringe at myself) because they're unlikely to EVER STOP TALKING and I have no point of reference. But you got right in there with them. Hm. Maybe I just need to try it. There's an idea, huh? Because I know the second I do, I'm getting an Awesomest Mom medal of my own here…
I think Minecraft sounds like THE MOST FUN GAME, EVER. I usually am terrible at any video games, and I am so keen to try this.
Additionally, the throwaway phrase, "also, she was deaf," is maybe a testament to Rose's way of looking at a person – the rank of importance of who you are is a.) female, b.) scientist, c.) did a cool thing, d.) and had a disability but that isn't the important bit. May she carry that point of view forever.
[…] Who knows why author Melissa Wiley's children chose Minecraft as the vehicle through which to educate her about a major scientist? What matters is that they did, and that the whole thing is adorable: […]
Naomi discovered the iPad version of Minecraft a couple of months ago and has been having great fun with her creative world. I keep meaning to have her teach me but it somehow hasn't happened yet. She has obviously been teaching the five year old next door though – he was sitting with the iPad at the weekend while she wandered outside, then suddenly shot after her yelling "Nainomi, your sheeps is escaping!" Cuteness!

Wood & Ground Contact
I am building a small retaining wall/border along my driveway. Lumber being used is 75 feet of clear grade redwood 4x4's.
Question: Should I apply a protectant to the wood before laying it down?
You probably are aware that redwood is naturally rot resisitant. Out of all the naturally rot resistant woods, redwood is near the top of the list. There are some wood preservatives out there; Wolman Woodlife for example and I've seen some other products in the big box stores... but, they all will change the color of the wood. The answer to your question is really based on your expectations. If you want the absolute maximum amount of longevity then use a preservative. Redwood can survive anywhere from 10 - 30 years in ground contact, so you have to decide if that is suitable.
See this article on Selecting Preservative Treated Wood for some really good information. If you look closely at the study the recommendation is to treat redwood that comes into ground contact.
Thank you for the info. After thinking about it I have decided I am going to apply a clear semi gloss water based urethane to the wood that will be in contact with the ground prior to the install, this will at least afford some protection. Also, noticed yesterday when doing my excavation that the ground is very dry where I am building. It is also on a slight grade with excellent drainage for rain and it has the benefit of roof overhang to keep it dry in everything but blowing rain. After doing the excavation I feel much better about the chances that this wood will last for a while.

Middleweight Contender Duddy Returns To NYC
World middleweight title contender John Duddy is going to fight in his "home" New York City for the first time since last May.
Duddy is fighting Tunisian brawler Walid "Tempete de Sable" Smichet as part of the undercard of the main event, which will feature a heavyweight championship match as IBF champion Wladimir Klitschko takes on WBO title holder Sultan Ibragimov.
The fight will be held at Madison Square Garden on Saturday, February 23. The main event will only be televised on HBO.
Duddy spent most of 2007 in his homeland of Ireland and it proved to be successful homecoming. Winning all three fights he competed in, Duddy improved his record to 23-0, with 17 KOs.
His last victory came by defeating two-time former middleweight champion Howard Eastman in a ten-round decision in December at Kings Hall in Belfast.
"After the Howard Eastman fight, I'm confident about getting in the ring with any middleweight in the world. It wasn't perfect, but I showed I had a good chin - I always knew that - used my head more and never took a step backwards," Duddy said.
"I'm much more comfortable. It was a step closer to me getting to the top and I'm happy with my progress."
The Irish Ropes Promotion's top boxer has attracted interest from WBC champion Kelly Pavlik to possibly meet in the ring for a title fight later this year.
But Duddy must take care of his opponent in the ring next month. The popular boxer, who hails from nearby Derry County, is excited to return to the states.
He feels that new trainer Don Turner has helped the 27 year old fighter vastly improve in the ring and take the next step in challenging for a world middleweight title.
Smichet has a record of 17 wins, 3 losses and 13 KOs.
"It was great fighting in Ireland the past year, but I'm really looking forward to being back where I started my pro career with all those great fans. There's a lot of interest in my career back home now and a lot of people are flying in to watch this fight," Duddy, who is currently training in North Carolina, said.
"Most importantly, though, I think I've shown improvement in my last three fights, although a lot was just simple things we worked on. Don has me boxing like I did before (as an amateur)."

Property due diligence plays a key role in the real estate acquisition process. From mechanical, electrical and plumbing, to lease and financing analysis, and competitive market set, the process leaves no stone unturned and provides key ingredients to the acquisition officer as she develops a recommendation to the investment committee for pricing and purchasing the asset. Without this technical involvement, acquisition officers would be left to rely solely on the marketing materials from the sales broker and their gut, akin to the stock broker throwing darts.

Fragments of long-bodied dino found in Argentina
By Ashley Yeager, 12:19 PM May 14, 2014
Fossils of a new species of long-necked, long-tailed dinosaur have been found in Argentina. Named Leinkupal laticauda, the diplodocid sauropod belongs to a family of dinosaurs that were among the longest creatures to walk on Earth. L. laticauda represents the first of this kind of sauropod found in South America and the youngest identified to date.
Based on the rock where the fossils were found, scientists estimate that L. laticauda survived into the early Cretaceous period, which began about...

On 12 April 1988, James Odom, NASA's Associate Administrator for Space Station, sent out a memorandum with two attachments to a long distribution list. Recipients included NASA Administrator James Fletcher, Deputy, Associate, and Assistant Administrators at NASA Headquarters, the NASA Inspector General, the NASA Chief Scientist, the nine NASA field center Directors, Public Affairs Officers across the agency, the six field center Space Station Project Offices, and representatives of the Space Station International Partners (Canada, the European Space Agency, and Japan). The memo's title summed up its purpose succinctly: it was called "Naming the Space Station."
Odom explained that the Space Station President Ronald Reagan had called upon NASA to build in his State of the Union Address of 25 January 1984 was about to enter its "development phase," so that the time was ripe to decide on a name for it. He attached a NASA Management Instruction laying out guidelines for naming NASA projects and, more interestingly, a list of 16 names suggested by a Space Station Name Committee he had appointed. Each name included a brief rationale.
The naming rules were straightforward. Candidate names were to be simple and easily pronounced, not refer to living persons, neither duplicate nor closely resemble other NASA or non-NASA space program names, be translatable into the languages of the International Partners, and have neither ambiguous nor offensive meanings in the International Partner languages. In addition, acronyms were to be avoided. The naming process was not to be revealed to the public; if, however, members of the public happened to submit names that followed the rules, the Name Committee would consider them.
Several of the Name Committee's 16 names sought a return to the Greco-Roman mythology naming tradition of the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo programs. Hercules was, its rationale explained, an appropriate name for the Space Station because the mythical hero was "a symbol of extraordinary strength. . .who won immortality by performing 12 labors." Minerva was the Roman goddess of wisdom and learning; Aurora, the Roman goddess of the dawn. Jupiter, the greatest Roman god, was a candidate name; the Name Committee explained, however, that it was meant to refer to the Solar System's largest planet, and that it was "symbolic of mankind's greatest adventure, the exploration of space." Pegasus was suggested because the Space Station would "dwell among the stars" like "the winged horse who ascended into Heaven." Olympia referred to the sacred grove where ancient Greece held its Olympic Games; the name was meant to invoke the spirit of international cooperation.
Two names, Earth-Star and Starlight, referred to the Station's likely bright star-like appearance in the skies of Earth, while another, Skybase, was said to build on "the tradition of Skylab," the first U.S. space station, which had reached orbit in 1973. Landmark was suggested because the Space Station Program would constitute a "landmark" in the history of the NASA spaceflight. Pilgrim referred to outer space settlement, and the rationale for Prospector declared that the Space Station would "serve as a base for exploration of space for natural deposits," which must have been a surprise to many on Odom's distribution list.
Other names – Freedom, Independence, Liberty, and Unity – advertised U.S. political values, and thus followed Soviet convention. ("Soyuz," for example, means "Union," which refers to the multi-modular nature of the Soyuz spacecraft, but also to the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.) Liberty also referred to breaking "the bond of Earth's gravitational pull," Unity to international cooperation, and Independence to "man's first permanent step to be 'independent' of Earth."
Freedom, the Name Committee explained, was appropriate because the Space Station would "provide scientific and technological 'freedom' to explore avenues of research," as well as freedom "from the confines of gravity." In addition, freedom was "a political value central to all of the Space Station's international partners."
In his memorandum, Odom explained that names submitted to the Space Station Name Committee would be given to the NASA Administrator, who would make the final selection. In the end, though, the list of candidate names landed on President Reagan's desk. On 18 July 1988, NASA announced that he had selected the name Space Station Freedom.
Despite Odom's assertion that it would soon enter development, Space Station Freedom underwent repeated redesigns to reduce cost and complexity and narrowly dodged cancellation. In mid-1993, new President William Clinton ordered a comprehensive review of the U.S. space station program, a management overhaul, and a redesign based on one of three options, designated A, B, and C. In November 1993, Clinton selected Option A, a pruned-back version of Freedom that became known as Alpha. (One might speculate, none too seriously, that had Option B been selected, the station would have been called Beta.)
During his single term in office, President George H. W. Bush, Clinton's predecessor, had concluded agreements first with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev and then with Russian President Boris Yeltsin that called for, among other things, use of the Soyuz spacecraft as a Space Station Freedom lifeboat. Bush had stopped short of giving the Russians a central role in the NASA station; nevertheless, he laid groundwork for things to come.
President Clinton's decision to accept the Russian invitation to combine Alpha and Mir-2 had its critics. Nevertheless, the move created a geopolitical rationale that ensured broad Congressional support for the station for the first time. The combined space station would keep Russian rocketeers occupied so that they would not peddle their missile-manufacturing services internationally. In terms of space operations, the merger amounted to what was probably the first instance of Earth-orbital barter: the Russian segment would provide orbit-maintenance propulsion and early staffing in exchange for abundant electricity from the U.S. segment's enormous truss-mounted steerable solar arrays.
For a time, the combined U.S.-Russian station was jokingly referred to as "Ralpha," for "Russian Alpha," which at least had the advantage of being distinctive. Ultimately, however, NASA and its partners settled on the prosaic name International Space Station (ISS).
Following (mainly) Russian tradition, individual ISS modules have received names. The Mir-2 core module, a small independent space station NASA referred to as the "Service Module," was named Zvezda ("Star"), while the first U.S. component, Node 1 – a module designed as an attachment point for other modules – was dubbed Unity for reasons similar to those given in 1988. Other names include Zarya ("Dawn") for the first ISS component launched; Destiny for the U.S. Lab Module; Kibo ("Hope") for the Japanese lab; and Columbus for the European lab.

About Us
"Caring for animals in need.
The homeless, strays, abused, neglected, lost. Heal them, love them, help them find a home."
All of our animals have a set adoption fee. This fee helps defray the cost of the medical care and other occupancy costs associated with the shelter. All animals are spayed or neutered prior to adoption. Simply come during adoption hours to visit with an animal. For current adoption hours and/or to view animals available for adoption, please visit our website. www.northwoodshs.org
Northwoods Humane Society is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded in 1975 by a group of caring individuals who saw a need for sheltering unwanted animals in Chisago County. All of these animals were housed in foster homes until the dream of a building could come true. In 2000 the doors were opened for our location in Wyoming, MN.
Our main services include:
· Adopting out pets into new homes. All adoptable animals remain in our care until they find new homes.
· Accepting surrenders of cats & dogs by appointment.
· Helping reunite lost & found pets.

text: I took the beast into my mechanics for a tune up and just an overall check up before I start doing any serious travel with it. Now here is the deal. The mechanic (a friend of mine) did the usual pull the plugs, which he said look brand new. Ok, that's a pretty common deal so it doesn't mean anything. However when he did the cylinder pressure test every cylinder came out between 176 and 179 lbs pressure. He did it twice because this rig has 190K on it and he just couldn't believe that an engine this old could have that consistant of pressure without being rebuilt. He also did the bleed down test on the cylinders and that also checked out golden. He did say that the valve cover gasket was after market but again that could have been changed without any further work being done on the engine. So this is my question. What should I look for that would give me an indication as to whether this engine has been rebuilt or not or if it has just been a really well maintained engine? Has anybody else have an engine with this type of mileage and this level of compression?

For the first time, Johns Hopkins researchers were able to easily jumpstart the activity of a well-known cancer protein in live cells with a small molecule, a strategy that pinpointed key players in the cancer process and can be used to determine new therapeutic targets. What's more, the scientists' study, published in the March 3 issue of Science, identifies a simple method to further understand the complex mechanisms that underlie cancer as well as other diseases and may provide an easy model to screen for new cancer drugs.
"Our study reveals a new way to study proteins in live cells, in this case, a tyrosine kinase implicated in causing cancer," says the study's lead author, Philip A. Cole, M.D., Ph.D., director of the Department of Pharmacology and Molecular Sciences at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. "This approach helped identify potentially important therapeutic targets and in the future may provide a method to easily screen cancer treatments."
In the study, Cole and his colleagues examined the tyrosine kinase Src (pronounced SARK), a clinically important cancer protein that scientists have heavily studied but do not completely understand. The Johns Hopkins researchers developed a special mutated version of the Src protein and incorporated it into live animal cells. The mutated version was inactive but contained an "ignition switch" that would turn it back on. They determined that the small molecule, imidazole, could act as the key. Imidazole fit into a pocket in the mutated structure of the Src protein, which mended the structure and reinstated Src's activity. Removal of imidazole quickly shut the protein off again.
"This strategy provided a controlled environment to study Src," says Cole. "This helped us uncover some new and unexpected insights into how the cancer protein creates its havoc, as well as new treatment leads." For one, the model provided evidence that Src interacts with CrkL, a signaling protein not previously known to be targeted by Src's actions. The study also found direct evidence that Src activates MAP kinase pathways, which help transfer information from growth factors, molecules that aid in the development of cancer cells. Previously the role of Src in these pathways was controversial.
"Understanding the functions of different proteins in normal states and disease states is crucial for treatment development because it can help identify new therapeutic targets," says Cole. Insights into tyrosine kinases could be particularly important for determining new cancer treatments, since scientists think that many different types are involved. "For example, Gleevec, which is used to treat gastrointestinal stromal tumors and chronic myeloid leukemia, is the most successful magic bullet against cancer in many years and works by blocking tyrosine kinase activity," Cole says.
As a next step, Cole and his colleagues plan to further examine the role of Src in cancer using their new model. They also plan to adapt the approach to develop a drug screen.
In the future, it also may be possible to use their chemical technique to mend mutated proteins found in people with certain genetic diseases, according to Cole. For example, the immune system disorder agammaglobulinemia involves mutated tyrosine kinases. Possibly researchers could identify a small molecule that rescues the activity of the mutated tyrosine kinases in the same way that imidazole corrected the structure of the mutated Src and jumpstarted its activity.
Other contributors to this study include Akhilesh Pandey, M.D., Ph.D., an assistant professor in the Institute of Genetic Medicine; Jin Zhang, Ph.D., an assistant professor in the Department of Pharmacology and Molecular Science, and Henrik Molina, M.S., a lab manager in the Institute of Genetic Medicine.

smell in basement from non-vented kitchen sink
We purchased an older home about six months ago and discovered that the previous owners had done all the plumbing work in the kitchen themselves and hadn't done a very good job. The kitchen pipes were connected to the washing machine pipes and neither were vented. We soon discovered that when we would do a large amount of dishes in the kitchen sink, we'd get a sewer gas smell in the basement - but not in the kitchen. We had several plumbers come to see if we could fix the problem without installing a vent through the roof. Both plumbers were confused by the fact that we never smelled the sewer gas smell in the kitchen - just in the basement. They thought that when we did dishes in the kitchen and water rushed down the pipes, it sucked the water out of the p-trap in the laundry piping - so they redid the kitchen piping to separate it completely from the laundry and thought that would fix the smell issue. Then last night, we did the dishes and again the smell was back.
Obviously the fundamental problem is the lack of venting, but why does the smell only occur in the basement and not in the kitchen? This has puzzled the two different plumbers we've had out to our house. Is there any way to fix this besides the considerable work that would go into properly venting the kitchen sink through the roof? We already spent a considerable amount of money trying to fix this already with no success. Thanks for your help!
I'd get a new plumber out there. The easiest way to diagnose smells is with a smoke test, and if neither of them suggested it you need a better service guy :thumbsup:. BTW a smoke test will find any leaks in the dwv system, you pump thick smoke into the pipes and seal all vents. Smoke will come out of blown trap seals, breaks, ect.
Thanks. I do wish that the past two plumbers had suggested a smoke test - or that I had thought to ask. But what they had said was that if there was a leak, then we would smell the sewer gas more often, as opposed to just when we do dishes. That confuses me as well. Is it possible that there could be a leak in the basement pipes that come from the kitchen that would cause the sewer gas smell to be released into the basement, but only after we do dishes and send a large quantity of water down the pipes (keeping in mind again that the kitchen sink is not vented...)
See if you can install an under-sink-base air admittance valve.
They allow air into the drain line, but will not allow the sewer gas out, and are made just for this type of situation.
Good luck (and get a new plumber).

Sep. 9: Asian session
EUR/USD is consolidating in the $1.3160/80 range on Monday. On Friday euro managed to rebound from $1.3100, but as a whole the past week was once again negative for the pair. Cautious ECB's view on the block's economy and Fed tapering expectations keep pressuring the single currency. There are no important data releases scheduled for today. GBP/USD is trading a bit higher around $1.5640, but remains below the Friday's peak at $1.5680.
USD/JPY opened with more than a 60-pip gap up after it lost about 100 pips on Friday. Yen fell as Tokyo's winning bid to host the 2020 Olympics boosted optimism in Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's package of fiscal and monetary policies which tend to debase the national currency. In addition, a report showed the nation's economy expanded faster than initially estimated: GDP growth in Q2 was revised up from 0.6% to 0.9%. USD/CHF opened with a 10-pip gap up and is now consolidating around 0.9385.
AUD/USD is trading just under $0.9200 after it tested $0.9167 earlier in Asia. Australian dollar remains close to a 3-week high as data showed China's exports increased, boosting trade prospects. NZD/USD opened above $0.8000, but is now trading about 20 pips below this level. Kiwi's correcting after it gained more than 100 pips on Friday. USD/CAD slipped back below the 1.0400 mark today. On Friday the pair formed a strong bearish candle with a low at 1.0380, but closed the day above 1.0400.
On Friday US dollar weakened versus its counterparts as US non-farm payrolls came lower than expected and the market has priced in a solid reading. The Fed is still expected to start tapering QE this month though.

Great American Day
Dear Editor,
Opening Day is a great American tradition. Last Saturday, other American traditions (generosity, hard work, community) were out in full force and Rockaway Little League would like to express its gratitude to all involved.
As most people know, a Federal government shutdown could have closed Fort Tilden and canceled Opening Day for our 800 children. In the League's time of need, Aviator Sports stepped up and offered us space at their facility for free. Our vendors (nykidstime, DJs at Work and Bassett Catering) showed flexibility. A gaggle of volunteers sprang into action to prepare generators, furniture and equipment for transit across the bridge. Congressman Weiner's office pressed Gateway for alternatives.
Fortunately, we were able to celebrate Opening Day at our Fort Tilden home. Parents and children (and even some pets) brought the joy of Opening Day to Fort Tilden. Two of our most trusted public servants contributed to our celebration: Audrey Pheffer, who is never MIA when the League is in need, and Anthony Weiner, who is fighting the good fight with the National Park Service to secure our place in Fort Tilden for the foreseeable future. Congressman Weiner flew in from DC on virtually no sleep to join us.
Many local notables also joined us to celebrate the very special athletes in our Challenger Division. Once again the spirit of the Challenger game was a bright light for our League and the Rockaway community. Some of these same people – and dozens of other local citizens and merchants – donated raffle prizes, enabling RLL to afford the day's rides and activities. The RIBS in particular were especially generous.
None of this would have been possible without the tireless dedication of our Opening Day Committee: Rose Resker, Joe Braskey, Nancy Cregan, Rory Efron, Randy Koenig, Maureen Powderly, Kelly Schmitt, Robby Schwach, Kelly Watters and Robin Zweifler. These volunteers worked for weeks to give our players and their families a memorable kickoff to the 2011 season. They turned on a dime and poured in hundreds of more hours to set up contingency plans for the shutdown scenario. And on Opening Day, they delivered the goods for our community. We are very proud of our team and very thankful to all the players, parents, neighbors, vendors, politicians and civil servants who made Opening Day 2011 a great American experience.

For relatively undemanding editing of documents on the phone, the Droid 4 comes with QuickOffice. It's something of a crapshoot as to which files you'll be able to open with QuickOffice, but I was able to at least read and do rudimentary editing on documents that didn't have complex formatting such as fancy text styles. Unfortunately, OpenOffice users in particular are out of luck: QuickOffice cannot open the .ODF file format. I'm used to a full-size desktop in all respects, so for me QuickOffice was only useful for perusing files rather than creating them.
Those with ambitions to get real work done can connect the Droid 4 to a special dock, which hooks up to an HDMI display. From there you can use Motorola's webtop technology to run a full-screen instance of Firefox, remote-connect to a Citrix-enabled system, or run a number of other webtop-enabled apps.
I recommend adding a full Bluetooth keyboard as well, although this is the sort of thing that works best when the dock, display, and keyboard are not things you need to bring everywhere with you. A big display is probably best when using Citrix Receiver to remotely access your desktop, or with the included copy of GoToMeeting, for remote conferencing--although you can get away with small-screen videoconferencing on the latter a la Google+ Hangouts.
Battery life on any smart phone tends to be a losing proposition. Motorola has tried to do something about this on the software side via its Smart Actions system (which actually debuted in the Droid RAZR). Rules can be set to trigger specific actions based on locations, times, user activities, and other parameters.
For example, you can set the phone to automatically toggle off all data to save battery power at night, when you're sleeping. This tweaking paid off, and helped extend the battery life into the day-and-a-half range. Your own results will vary depending on how aggressively you use the phone, of course.
No phone or tablet yet exists that's a straight-up replacement for a desktop system, and I doubt one will come along for a good while. But the Droid 4 is an ambitious attempt to create an adjunct desktop-in-the-pocket, one whose full potential we might not see unleashed until its ICS update comes along.
Name: Motorola Droid 4
The impressive hardware of the Droid 4 comes at the cost of the unit's size and weight, although its battery life can be managed using Motorola's special software. Whether you can use it to take your productivity on the road depends heavily on what your own work habits are, although it needs to have ICS rolled out to it sooner rather than later.

still end up continuing to work for the Illusive man, he just gets pissed that you blew up the base. You are still flying around on their super advanced Normandy, you are still working with several cerberus crew members, you do not stop working for Cerberus at the end of ME2.
Pretty sure you tell the Illusive Man to screw off and go rogue from Cerberus if you blow up the base. You space jack the Normandy 2 on top of it, Shepard is a pirate, yargh.

Jenna Bush And Random Argentinian Guy: Not Dating
Some skeevy dude in Argentina is claiming he's dating one of the First Daughters.
For Jenna Bush, international diplomacy only went so far while she was in South America: The White House is denying an Argentine man's claims that he and the First Daughter are dating.
Argentine magazine Caras reported that the blonder Bush twin, 25, was planning to spend Christmas with her new boyfriend, public relations student Ramiro Gonzalez Palazzo.
Gonzalez Palazzo, 25, reportedly told the magazine, "All I can say is that I have a lot of fun when we are together," and described Jenna as "humble and down-to-earth."
But First Lady Laura Bush's press secretary, Susan D. Whitson, laughed off the report, telling PEOPLE, "We have found that young men who talk to the press and claim to be the boyfriend of Barbara or Jenna are just expressing wishful thoughts."
Oh please, didn't she once smoke a bowl with Ashton Kutcher? Being this guy's obvious drug mule is an upgrade.
