3T's ultra-light carbon Stylus road seatpost is a fresh take on the standard 2-bolt post. The transition from the pillar to the saddle clamp assembly is a finned, rearward swoosh suggestive in shape of the classic one-bolt posts of yore. But the clamp bolts are deployed to either side of the saddle-support cradle, conferring greater stability and easier adjustment. Stylus–0 models place the seat clamp assembly in line with the seatpost for zero setback for a forward position on the bike.

Trouble jumping off heel edge
I am having trouble jumping off of my heel edge. I'm just getting into park riding and have been practicing my 180's carving across the slope. I feel way more comfortable jumping from my heel side but I can't get any pop. If I jump from my toe side, I can pop like Spud Webb. I have eaten it a few times from my board catching an edge trying to 180 with some speed jumping from my heel side.
I can 180 off a jump but obviously I don't catch my edge because I'm in the air from the jump. I'm sure it's ugly and I don't feel like my technique is correct. I haven't attempted a backside 180 off a jump because I don't feel comfortable yet landing blind.
It is the same whether I'm riding regular or switch so I know my technique is way off. I'm assuming I'm probably trying to jump flat footed but it doesn't feel like it.
Any tips or just more practice? Anything I can do around the house to practice my technique because the season is pretty much over here in Indiana.
As far as practice goes, you can practice the heelside pop motion just carving on green runs and popping into a spin. No need to do it off jumps, you can learn the motion carving on green runs.
Don't expect to get as much pop as toeside though because toeside always wins in pop.
Thanks Jed. That makes sense and I'll continue practicing on the green runs.
One thing I think I might be doing is mistiming my jump and fully extending my legs right before I pop causing little upward movement.
I'll try to practice in the yard during the offseason as well doing frontside and backside spins.
Must be in the ankles, flexing them to pop off the toes.
I also have a lot of issues popping off my heels on flats. So essentially my BS 180s look much more clean then my FS. I haven't tried popping off my toes to FS yet. Its kind of hard to wrap my head around that, but I will be trying that on the next trip.
Thanks Snowolf. I'll continue practicing as I have been and try to exaggerate the pre-wind and hucking. I'll try to be better aware of my skidding and making a good heel side carve.
Thanks again for all the help,

We're big fans of two-in-one products, since they tend to decrease our primping time (and, conversely, increase the amount of sleep time). We were therefore thrilled to discover LAFACE Laboratories' PUR Purifying Facial Wash, which acts as both a foaming cleanser and toner. The gentle, soothing, citrus-scented formula removes dirt and impurities, cleaning and reviving skin. It also moisturizes, heals blemishes, and tightens pores, promoting a more uniform skin texture. Plus, anti-inflammatory and hypoallergenic ingredients make it great for sensitive and acne-prone skin.
I tried this last night, and it was ok. The smell was great, but in order for me to be sold on a new face wash, i will need to try it a few times. I think the sample could have been a bit larger. I have sensitive skin, and it takes a few days for me to get a good reaction.3
When I initially used this product, I really enjoyed it's scent and how clean my skin felt afterwards. However, after three uses, my normally clear skin broke out with a few pimples around my nose and hairline. I also had a few dry patches. Again, my skin is usually clear and not typically dry, and this breakout may not be directly from this wash, but this wash didn't help, either.3
Hunnie this is the best thing since Proactive! I loved my sample! It makes your face feel refreshing without leaving it dry and extremely tight. The sample comes in a little tiny container, which there is probably about 1 tbl spoon of product in. I washed my face about 5 times. You don't need a lot! This is an awesome product.5

It was the last straw. Last night I was wheezin' a lot & by th'smornin I have a truly bad cough. I got DH ta buy me some Musinex D & if that doesn't do it, I'll go ta an emergency clinic tamarrow.

Yucca Mountain, on the edge of a former nuclear test site, 90 miles north-east of Las Vegas, has been the subject of intense debate since the early Eighties when it was earmarked as the ultimate resting place for radioactive waste from the US civil nuclear power programme. The State of Nevada, from the Governor down, sees no reason why the waste from nuclear power stations in the eastern US - there are none in Nevada itself - should be dumped there. But in 1987 Congress amended its 1982 Nuclear Waste Policy Act, narrowing from three to one the number of sites to be investigated as a potential repository.
The state has done everything within its power to slow down work, from denying drilling permits to preparing a scientific critique of the programme. The Nuclear Waste Project Office - state-based, but federally funded - has run a parallel geological analysis of the site's suitability. Meanwhile the US Department of Energy (DoE) has spent at least dollars 1bn on the programme. The final decision on the site, however, may be many years and billions of dollars away - dollars 6.5bn (pounds 4.4bn) at the latest estimate.
In June, the American nuclear industry started legal action to force the DoE to fulfil its obligations to 'take title' to all the spent fuel from the civil nuclear industry by January 1998. Because of delays in siting a repository, the DoE had intended to develop an interim store for the spent fuel where it would be held in monitorable and retrievable form before disposal. No volunteer community, however, has yet been found where a store could be built. Utility commissioners say there is now a waste management crisis - no repository, and nowhere to put the spent fuel after 1998.
Last year, in a move closely paralleling the planned rock characterisation facility at Sellafield in the UK by Nirex, the nuclear industry's waste disposal company (for which a formal planning application was submitted last Friday), the DoE began to excavate a chamber in the side of Yucca Mountain as the first stage in the construction of an experimental study facility (ESF). The aim is to examine the rock formation selected for repository development.
Even before work had begun, however, there were doubts about the site's suitability. Yucca Mountain is close to volcanic centres, and is criss-crossed by more than 30 faults, many of which have caused recent earthquakes. A previously unknown fault, only 7 miles from Yucca, produced a quake measuring 5.8 on the Richter scale in June 1992, causing dollars 1m worth of damage to the DoE's field offices. Another fault, the Ghost Dance, may have a fractured zone associated with it as wide as 300 yards, which has forced a redesign of the facility. And a third, previously unknown, fault - Sundance - possibly 200 yards wide, could reduce the available repository block by as much as 20 per cent.
There are other uncertainties. Is it a good idea, for example, to pack the spent fuel so close as to maintain the rock at a temperature of over 100C for thousands of years, to drive off any water?
It is therefore no surprise that the Nuclear Waste Technical Review Board has warned the Energy Secretary, Hazel O'Leary, the Senate and Congress that an urgent review of the whole programme by an independent panel is necessary. Protesters fear that the ESF tests will hardly have begun before the DoE begins the site licensing process for Yucca Mountain.
The combination of scientific uncertainty, undue haste and associated uncertainties of programme funding, have combined to mean that the Ghost Dance fault, among others, may yet come to haunt the DoE and its much criticised Office of Civilian Waste Management.
The writer is a freelance consulting geologist who has recently returned from a visit to the Nevada site.

How might we tailor the government's economic stimulus package to match up with new ideas of success and failure?
Put it into education and teach young people not to fear failure so much? Or repeal or revise draconian bankruptcy act of 2005. In Providence, there is a Jenckes Street, presumably named after Congressman Thomas A. Jenckes — the father of modern bankruptcy legislation, which he fought to pass during and after the Civil War. He believed that public policy should not be driven by moral presumptions about craven debtors, but rather by the frank acknowledgement that credit, debt, and failure were indelible aspects of modern capitalism. Here we are, 150 years later, still learning that lesson the hard way.

When greed is good
23 August 2012: Rob Kevlihan, author of Aid, Insurgencies and Conflict Transformation: When Greed is Good, discusses his idea that aid and social services can contribute to peace indirectly by contributing to changes within insurgent movements.
It has been recognized for some time that the provision of aid during conflicts can intensify and prolong these conflicts. The remedy has been recommendations for aid providers to do no harm in the provision of such services, while seeking as far as possible, to build local capacity for peacebuilding. The apparent alternative – of not providing aid during civil wars – is clearly unacceptable because of the humanitarian imperative to assist those in need.
Are we then left, as Fiona Terry argues, condemned to repeat? Research to date has implied that we can do no more than try to minimize the negative impacts of aid during conflicts. This answer is unsatisfying, and led me to ask under what circumstances, if any, can aid contribute to the management and transformation of civil wars?
Looking at the impact of social services either provided through aid or as part of systems provided by welfare states, I trace changes that occurred during conflicts in Northern Ireland, Tajikistan and South Sudan. I believe that new incentives provided by social services financed by aid or provided directly by governments can result in changes within insurgencies.
These changes – including the development of political wings and/or of systems of civil administration, make political settlements easier to attain. These changes arise because insurgents are always greedy – they will always look for ways to garner resources or support for themselves, including ways of maximizing gains from aid. But under certain circumstances this greed can be good.
These kinds of changes are likely to occur only under certain circumstances:
Services provided in areas with an insurgent presence should be relatively autonomous from both the insurgents themselves and any other combatants, including state forces. Services, under these circumstances, are neither part of the government's counter insurgency strategy, nor are they provided directly by the insurgents, as it the case in Lebanon with Hezbollah provided services, or Hamas provided services in Gaza.
The insurgents themselves must be relatively dependent on the co-operation and goodwill of local populations. This typically arises when insurgents rely heavily on local populations for support of some kind – either for volunteers to fight, or for food and shelter. If insurgents garner most of their resources from the direct exploitation of natural resources – say diamonds, or hard woods, or if they are heavily financed by an external patron, they are less likely to be interested in the gains to be made from social services. It also helps if there is a history of services being provided in these areas before conflict begins; this places increased pressure of insurgents to allow such services to continue.

I respect Rob Kevlihan's view but I respectfully raise a question about the overgeneralized premise according to which: "These changes arise because insurgents are always greedy – they will always look for ways to garner resources or support for themselves, including ways of maximizing gains from aid."

Rob, that's an interesting piece of work and I'm looking forward to reading the book! I must take exception to your comment that "Research to date has implied that we can do no more than try to minimize the negative impacts of aid during conflicts". The Do No Harm Project has always promoted creative options for supporting local capacities for peace - as you acknowledge in your first paragraph. Indeed, the original name of the project was Local Capacities for Peace. The name was changed at the request of local aid workers in conflict zones who could not use the word "peace" in their work. This has clearly led to some confusion about what can be expected from assistance. Anyone who reads Mary Anderson seriously or my work would not find us stuck on the lowest common denominator. The experience we've gathered in DNH over the past 19 years demonstrates clearly that assistance can play a role well beyond "doing no harm". I am very excited that you have chosen to pursue some of the pathways by which that might take place.
on Aug. 25, 2012, 12:20 a.m.
Marshall, thanks for the post and I appreciate your point. Clearly building local capacities for peace is important. I remember first reading some of the Do No Harm literature as an aid worker in Sudan in the late 1990s; it had an influence on my thinking at the time and informed some of the programs we rolled out in in response to the 1998 famine in Bahr El Ghazal. Indeed the idea for this project came in part from that experience, and the realization that while building local capacities for peace was important, it remained a fragile exercise as long as the larger conflicts in which particular 'locals' are situated continued. The book is an effort to address how aid can potentially have transformative impacts to scale - but one that I hope is complementary to DNH. I really welcome your comments and engagement on this and look forward to continued discussion.
on Aug. 28, 2012, 12:01 p.m.
Rey Ty, I actually don't think the statement is that controversial - all insurgencies require resources to pursue their goals; aid provided during conflicts is one resource among many that insurgencies will seek to gain from. I would be interested to hear more on your objection to understand it better.
on Sept. 4, 2012, 9:35 p.m.
Rob, you go way back! I don't remember if we ever crossed paths with GOAL. Kenny Gluck was our DNH guy around Sudan - N and S - in those days. Did you ever meet him? It is great that you're still working over those ideas and pushing them in new directions. But your book is $120! I'll have to get it from a library. I do want to keep in touch about this. Are you ever around DC or Boston?
on Sept. 4, 2012, 11:37 p.m.
Hi Marshall - no, I never did run in to Kenny, but was fortunate to read some of Mary Anderson's work while in Sudan in 1998 that informed our programming at the time. I'm hopeful the book will be become available in paperback in due course. I do pass through DC occasionally, although I am mainly based in West Africa at present.

I just recently painted my rear hatch and side trim and a few people showed some interest... So, here's how I did it:
1. First and foremost you'll want to gather all the stuff you'll need.
a. Find your paint code and go buy some color matched paint and clear coat if necessary. I used Plasti-kote (FM8140 for Silver) as opposed to Duplicolor. I bought 4 cans of color (6OZ.) and 2 bigger cans of clear (11OZ.).
b. Get yourself some sand paper of varying grits from 100 to 1200.
c. The rest: 3M Adhesive Remover,Alcohol, dental floss (didn't work for me but has for others), razor blade, phillips/flathead screwdrivers, a 10mm socket, rags, and 3M trim tape (about 4 rolls). A heat gun and power sander would be handy but not absolutely necessary.
2. Remove your trim and get off the left over sticky residue. How you go about doing this is up to you. Here's how I did it:
a. Side trim. I've heard of people using dental floss and then simply rolling the left over adhesive off with their fingers. Wasn't nearly that easy for me. I got a long flat head screwdriver and put a rag over the top and used that to get started. I then pride it back a little at a time and used a razor to slice through the adhesive. There are two strips of adhesive tape holding the trim in place along the top and bottom of the trim.
b. Rear hatch trim. Youll need to remove the plastic cover on the interior of the hatch using a phillips screwdriver and then popping out the the clips around the outside edge to be able to get to the nuts that hold the trim in place. Once you've got that out of the way you'll need to remove those 10mm nuts (there are 5) with a socket set. It may help to remove your rear license plate before you wiggle the hatch piece off. Note that there are also two very small pieces of adhesive behind the two outer most tips of the trim. Pull the trim out and disconect the wires to your plate lamps and your done. I removed the Ford emblem to make sanding and painting easier, its held on with the same adhesive tape as the rest of the trim.
c. I got the left over trim tape off, first with a razor blade to get off the big chunks, and then went back over it with the adhesive remover on a rag. I tried using a heat gun first but it didn't really help, might for you though if you've got one.
3. Sand it using the various grits starting out with the 100 and work your way up to a 1200 grit wet sand to get the trim pieces nice and smooth.
4. Prep the area you'll be painting in. I spaced some nails on a wall covered with newspaper in a garage to set the trim on. I also placed some thumb-tacks a little bit higher than the nails to keep the trim off of the wall while its being painted.
5. Prep and paint your trim.
a. I prepped the pieces I was about to paint using a rag with some rubbing alcohol. I then placed them on the wall and dryed them with a heat gun. Like I said the heat gun is not necessary but definately helpful during the painting process.
b. I applied 3 coats of paint to each piece. Drying in between each coat with the heat gun made this really quick. Be sure to get those edges.
c. I let the 3rd coat dry for about an hour and a half and then wet sanded it with some 1200 grit sand paper.
d. I went over the pieces again with some rubbing alcohol and put on another coat of color. Dryed with the heat gun.
e. I then put on three coats of clear drying between each with the heat gun. From here reapet steps c. and e. until your satisfied with the look. I put on about 10 coats of clear coat total.
6. Reapply the trim.
a. Wipe off the back of the trim and your car with some rubbing alcohol.
b. Put the double sided trim tape on the back of your trim peel off the backing and then put it on your car.
c. For the rear hatch trim reapply the Ford emblem if you took it off. Put two small pieces of the trim tape on the outer most sides of the trim and then reinstall.
I think that pretty much covers it... I didn't rush through any thing so I actually drove my car around for a day and a half with out any trim on it. If your going to do it take your time.
Here are a few pics I took:

I am introverted, easygoing, and empathetic.
Some people might call me a pessimist or say that I'm paranoid, but I think of myself as having a greater awareness of risk.
I can be a bit of a dork. I am aware of this and have come to accept it.
I tend to see beauty where others do not.
I have a great interest in unconventional ideas. I'm not troubled by rule-breaking behavior as long as the intent is just. The "right" decision almost always depends on the circumstances.
I don't generally go out of my way to try to impress people, but I do enjoy being appreciated.
Some people have said that I'm a bit unusual...and these are typically the people who know me best.
I'm also working on completing my first graphic novel, hopefully it will be published next summer.
Sometimes my smile (and other strange faces I make).
That I am awkward in social situations (I'm the creepy quiet one).
I think I might have grumpy resting face (or so I've been told).
Favorite Authors: Carlos Castaneda, Laurell K Hamilton, Charlaine Harris, Suzanne Collins, George R R Martin, Stephen King, Anne Rice, Terry Goodkind, H.P. Lovecraft, Orson Scott Card, Robin Hobb, Arthur C. Clarke, Robert Jordan, Isaac Asimov...and the list goes on and on.

Favorite Food: Organic, Non-GMO, Home Cooking (mine anyway).
Personal Growth.
Technology (okay, I could theoretically do without this one, but I really don't want to and you don't want me to either...it's worse than me without my morning tea).
Oh, and the sorry state of humanity.
I tend to prefer a cozy night in to going out on the town...it's not that I'm opposed to it, I just find large crowds and lots of noise to be exhausting--I prefer a small groups of close knit friends.
I'm mostly interested in online pen-pals but if someone especially sparks my interest, we could meet and hang out some time.

Really!? This is how they do it? Episode after episode of "you're NOT together" from family/friends/various random people... That night club coma thing was such a tease... I don't think I can watch if he starts seeing other people. There were tears! Waah!
After Ang and Hodgins how could they do this! Can't anyone on this show stay together? The hope and/or expectation that they will get together is the whole point! I did not actually expect it in season 1 but now I feel like Charlie Brown playing football with Lucy.
I do wonder if they had taped the flashbacks in the beginning of the series to use later, or if they had to bring everyone back.
I think they brought everyone back because Zach looked like he had gained weight and that's how he seemed the last time we saw him.

A MAN was arrested yesterday on suspicion of setting fire to Liverpool FC star Andy Carroll's car.
Police were waiting for the 33-year-old at Newcastle Airport and they took him in for questioning. It is understood the man, from Whitley Bay, North Tyneside, had been to Amsterdam.
The blaze wrecked the £150,000 customised Range Rover outside Newcastle United captain Kevin Nolan's home. The fire was so fierce it burnt off the paint and bent the alloy wheels.
Last October's attack came days before the striker was due in court charged with assaulting an ex-girlfriend.
He had been bailed to live at Nolan's house in Ponteland, Northumberland, but the charge was later dropped.
Carroll, 22, moved from Newcastle United to Liverpool in January for a British record of £35million and scored his first goals on Monday.

District 6 Zoning Proposal Sparks Debate Over Choice
A proposal to eliminate elementary school zones in District 6 has provoked a heated debate over school choice and community involvement in a section of northern Manhattan -- parts of Harlem, Inwood and Washington Heights -- that has seen tremendous demographic change in recent years.
The local Community Education Council has proposed an open application process for all the elementary schools in the district. Reports from DNAInfo.com and the Wall Street Journal have chronicled the unfolding conversation. But the issues run deeper than lines on a map. Many of the wealthier, whiter and newer residents said in recent interviews that they do not want to be subjected to school lotteries to attend their neighborhood school. While other parents, many of them Latino, say the choices in District 6 are uneven, and unfair, and they would like access to better schools, particularly the well-regarded P.S./I.S. 187 Hudson Cliffs.
Mark Narron, a father of two who lives in Inwood, said the de-zoning could drive many parents – who moved to Inwood with school proximity in mind - out of District 6.
"In a pure choice system where every family is able to put their hat in the ring for a few high quality schools, then obviously there is a good chance you're not going to be in the neighborhood or school you choose," said Narron, 37, whose eldest child will enter kindergarten in the fall. "If that were to happen then definitely we would leave. Even if it doesn't happen we would think twice about staying in the neighborhood."
There are already about a half-dozen schools in District 6 which are unzoned and have their own application but proponents of the new plan say many district residents don't know about those options. Bryan Davis, the chairman of District 6 CEC's zoning committee, said the plan gives parents better access to all of the 25 schools in the district.
"The discussion from the beginning was how do we provide equal access to everyone in the district so that every parent has the opportunity to find a school that best fits the educational needs of the child," Davis said.
Currently, a parent can apply to zoned schools in their district or choice schools. Each school requires a separate application. The CEC proposal eliminates the multiple applications and asks parents to rank every school in the district.
The Department of Education at first seemed to embrace Davis's proposal but now has taken a neutral stance as hearings continue. "The D.O.E. is generally interested in choice. We are working with the CEC to respond to their questions and ideas," a D.O.E. spokeswoman said.
Gretchen Mergenthaler, a mother of a fifth-grader at the Amistad Dual Language School, believes the neighborhood is vulnerable because there are many non-English speakers and others who may not know how to advocate for themselves. She said she wants parents to press for improvements at all the district schools rather than eliminating the zones.
"Its very easy for us to be pushed around which is why we are trying to get out to the new immigrants, Latinos and people of other ethnicities to understand that what our schools in this district are getting is not what schools in 'rich' districts are getting," said Mergenthaler, who has been translating information for Spanish-speaking families.
But Davis said the proposal would benefit those very families.
"The Spanish community feels there isn't an equitable parent involvement in the schools," Davis said, adding that Latinos comprise about 90 percent of the District 6 school population. "The Spanish parents in this district should have equal voice and opportunity to hear the proposals on the table."
Some residents said they fear the proposal is part of a larger move to privatize the system by closing district schools and adding charter school options.
"This district in general doesn't get the resources it needs. In many ways District 6 is one of those marginalized communities," said Tony Kelso, 53, a member of the CEC and parent of a fourth grader at Amistad. "If you starve the district to where the schools don't have what they need, then its so much easier to come and close them down and put up what they want."
Elizabeth Aguiluz, a parent of two elementary school children at Muscota, said she didn't feel a divide between Latino parents and other ethnic groups when it came to education.
"That's what parents have in common, no matter if you're black, Latino, or white," Aguiluz, 46, said. "We all want our kids to have a good education."
As the DOE and the parent council consider the proposal, parents can weigh in. The council's zoning committee will host public hearings, starting at 6 p.m., on October 25 at P.S. 115 and on November 1 at P.S. 98.

Long nose from front, what can I do? (Photo)
Hi Doctors! I have a concern regarding the length of my nose from the front. It doesn't fit my face and looks odd. I have consulted a plastic surgeon and was recommended a 'Tip Plasty' but I'm not sure this would be enough. I would like the length of my nose reduced from front to make my face look less long. What are my options? I'm also looking to get chin implant and possibly a subtle upper lip lift. Thanks and look forward to opinions.
Doctor Answers 3
Long nose from front, what can I do?
The tip can be deprojected and the overall length, reduced. I think that a chin implant can be placed as well. Both can be performed without visible scars.

Combination of chin implant and rhinoplasty
A full rhinoplasty and chin implant would be required to bring the nose into balance with your facial features. The chin implant would give added augmentation to the chin which would give improved facial balance. De-projecting the nose will also help make the nose looked less prominent and long.

Long nose
It looks like your nose is large. I would consider moving your tip closer to your face (Retro-displace) and alter your dorsum to make it straight.
A chin implant or augmentation should be seriously considered.

GALLERY and VIDEO: Crew pulls power line out of Flat River
BELDING — More than 100 people were without power Monday afternoon in Belding after a high voltage power line fell into the Flat River.
The primary line fell into the river around 3 p.m. near York and Morton streets at East Riverside Park. Consumers spokesman Terry Dedoes said 134 customers were affected.
Belding Fire Chief Gregg Moore said most of the area south of the river lost power while outages were spotty north of the river.
Consumers Energy sent multiple crews to the scene to make repairs. The Belding Fire Department brought a boat and rescue equipment to assist Consumers with removing the power line.
A Consumers crew spliced a wire together, which firefighters dragged across the river in a boat. Another Consumers employee put the fallen line back together before firefighters dragged it back across the river for crews to rehang.
Power was restored by Monday evening.

If you've ever turned on the TV and seen a charismatic, boyish, conservative looking man yelling at scientists in an animated fashion, there's a good chance it was Marc Morano.
Rarely do we meet those who have made careers selling us lies. Consider the oddball doctors who took tobacco money to deny a link between cigarette smoking and cancer, or the handful of scientists who take oil and coal money to discredit global warming science, or the people who have done both.
Last week, students in Wisconsin and Michigan stepped up to such an opportunity when CFACT Campus, the student arm of a well-known cabal of fossil fuel apologists, hosted climate change denier Willie Soon at several campus events around the country.
Dr. Willie Soon is a Smithsonian Institution astrophysicist paid by Charles Koch, ExxonMobil, the American Petroleum Institute and coal utility Southern Company to write papers dismissing climate change, publish op-eds saying coal pollution won't affect our health, refute the seriousness of ocean acidification, and apparently anything else he can be paid to deny. Dr. Soon has misrepresented himself by repeatedly claiming affiliation with Harvard University and using his credentials as an astrophysicist to make people believe he's a climate expert, and he shows no sign of stopping. Indeed, he told students in Madison, "I am as as qualified as anyone on the planet on this topic."
This post was crossed from the Campus Clean Energy blog.
Earlier this month, a group of climate deniers called CFACT staged a "conference" as a direct response to the "radical and alarmist agenda of the leftist PowerShift movement" Featured speakers included Lord Monckton, Marc Morano, clean coal reps, energy lobbyists, etc. They claim that the conference was a huge success with less than a couple dozen people in attendance. CFATC writes, "The CFACT conference stands as the kickoff to our direct response to the dangerous agenda of PowerShift 2011…they want to return America to the standard of living we enjoyed in 1882. PowerShift's platform is frightening. America cannot function on just wind, solar, and geothermal. The world economy will come crashing to its knees, and life as we know it will come to a screeching, green halt."
Ever wonder what keeps climate deniers awake at night? Turns out, it's you.
Last week, Collegians for a Constructive Tomorrow (CFACT) held their first Truth 2 Power Conference in Cable, Wisconsin. The "conference" (based on the photos, there were at least a dozen students in attendance) was intended to be CFACT's "direct response to the dangerous agenda of Power Shift 2011".
The CFACT organizers are evidently terrified that Power Shift-ers are "ready to infiltrate our college campuses, to affect elections and to corrupt hearts and minds" as part if our nefarious plot to "return America to the standard of living we enjoyed in 1882." We were unaware that wind and solar power enjoyed widespread deployment in the 1800's, but we'll take CFACT at its word.
CFACT describes itself as a student-run group on the "cutting edge of today's environmental debate", but unsurprisingly, it turns out they are just another corporate-funded wing of the climate-denying polluter machine, backed by the likes of ExxonMobil and Koch Industries.
This is a bottom-up, grassroots hub for young climate activists like you. Click here to let us know how you want to push our movement forward.
The Power Shift Network relies on grassroots support from people like you. Invest in a new hub for the youth-led movement for climate justice today.

My entry today is about our oldest cat named Jaffa. He is just over two years old. He is also the only kitty of ours that is not black and white he is orange.
We have had him almost 3 months now, but seems so much longer because we have had him through a move and everything.
His story begins now.
His owners an older couple was moving where they couldn't have pets. We were packing up as well to move with our 3 cats and small son. My husband went to their house to pick up just a cat carrier they were selling that I saw on a sale site. He made his way home and said honey I have some good news. I had asked what and he told me all about Jaffa and how we had to take him in. Well we had THREE already >.< I was like you want to take in another when we are about to move? And he went on to say we just had to. Well we went over the next day to pick him up. They told us about how he likes to run away but always comes back. They told us how just a few months earlier he ran away and got stuck in a car hood and his front paws had got burned :( then told us how he is declawed.
Over here at the Scott's household we do not believe in declawing cats. It is pretty mean, cats need those claws for mean things it is their nature to have them.
I will go on. So I had never even been around a cat that was declawed. It is pretty funny at times but really when I get to thinking about it, it's sad :(
He tries to sharpen them on the cat tree and scratchers but it's just his paws on them no scratching. He tries to scratch at the door and he tries to play with his toys and the cats but he can't all the way. He is mostly just hitting the cats and he never gets to hunt and get the toys he plays with very well.
You know what scares me the most though is he loves to go outside he runs but always comes back. I am always scared to death something will happen to him because he has no claws he can't climb a tree to get away from another animal and he can't defend himself it's scary.
The saddest thing is he thinks they are still there because they are supposed to be there but are not. I would just say think long and hard what you are taking away when you do this to your kitties. It's taking apart of them that protects them and that is them it's there nature let's not mess with that.
We have 4 wonderful Fur babies here at the Scotts house hold.
I will start with our first two.
Klein and Hobbes we got as babies around June 2012 they were about 12 weeks old at the time we adopted them both :) they had never been a part since they were rescued. We could not bring our self's to split them up. Hobbes is a sweetie he was recused from a ditch almost dead they formula fed him back to health since he was so young and small. Klein didn't get formula fed but also was starving when found. We got them from their foster mom Katie, we were looking to bring a kitty into our home to love and grow up with our son (Calvin) would is now almost a year and a half. We ended up with 2 fur babies, which we love dearly.
Then 1.14.2013 we got Luna, Our sweet baby girl she is about the same age as the boys. She was rescued around the same time. I was on a sale site and there she was someone trying to give her away because they were moving. She was in a home with just her and a baby girl the same age as our son. at first Luna didn't know what to think of her brothers. But very soon they loved each other and they taught her to play.
The last kitty we got was Jaffa our surprise kitty on 2.3.2013. my husband was picking up a cat toy for me and met Jaffa's parents an older couple who was also moving and couldn't bring him to the new home. He came home and was like I have great news; I found a sweet kitty that is going to be coming to live with us. I was like WHAT a 4th cat and we went to get him the next day. He was about two years old when we got him our oldest cat.
We have now moved to a new state since we got all our fur babies. We moved from Fort Stewart GA where my husband was in the army and where we got all our kitties from army families. to now living in North Vernon IN. we drove that long drive will all 4 cats in the car plus my son it was one none forgettable drive.
Since moving a cat we call MooMoo has come into our life's she is an outside cat we let in time to time and feed her. we are thinking about taking her to a vet and getting her checked and finding her a home she is a sweet girl and maybe pregnant.
So this is our kitty story so far and just keeps growing daily :)

March 2, 2013
BIRMINGHAM, Ala.--The UAB softball team lost to South Alabama, 8-2, in its second game of the Magic City Classic, hosted at the UAB Softball Field.
The Blazers fall to 7-5 on the year, while the Jaguars improve to 16-2.
UAB's game against Samford, originally scheduled to follow the meeting with South Alabama, has been cancelled and will be rescheduled on a later date.
Senior catcher Anna Kimbrell recorded her team-leading sixth home run in the top of the fifth, blasting one over the right field fence to extend the game.
Freshman shortstop Caitlin Attfield recorded her seventh steal of the season during the sixth inning, and remains perfect on the year in attempts.
In the top of the seventh inning, Kimbrell and senior right fielder Chandler Orr reached base on consecutive hit-by-pitches as the Blazers attempted a comeback. Senior Hailey Glynn entered to pinch run for Kimbrell, and was scored by freshman Kelly Britt, who singled to short for UAB's second run of the game.
South Alabama jumped out to a 5-0 lead in the bottom of the second inning, as the Blazers were plagued by a number of defensive miscues. The Jaguars would drive three more runs across the plate in the bottom of the third inning, and held the 8-0 advantage until the fifth frame.
In the circle, Jaguar pitcher Farish Beard threw a complete game and improves to 7-0, while junior Lannah Campbell threw 5.1 innings and is now 0-1 on the season.
Up next, UAB will face Murray State in its final game of the Magic City Classic on Sunday at 2:30 p.m. CT. The Blazers' second game of the day, against Nicholls has been cancelled.

Matt, do you use a queen excluder? Or does this sequencing keep enough open egg laying area and a honey barrier, to mostly keep the queen in the brood nest?
Matt, do you use a queen excluder? Or does this sequencing keep enough open egg laying area and a honey barrier, to mostly keep the queen in the brood nest?
Zone 3b. If you always do what you always did, you'll always get what you always got!
I've had carniolan bees for many years,and still buy carniolan queens when i buy queens. I do try other breeds of bees once in awhile and catch swarms, so over the years my bees have become mutts. When the carniolans decide to build up they can do it in a hurry, so i keep an eye on them in the spring and when i see it starting i will take 3 or 4 drawn frames from the bottom brood box and replace them with foundation, bees don't like empty frames and will go to work on them and it (sometimes) take their mind off swarming. ( this was an old Richard Taylor trick.)
They do react well to the available resources. I have seen them eat eggs and young open brood when pollen resources finish in late summer here. This reduces the amount of brood very quickly! Where my Italians tend to continue to try and raise the open brood.
Matthew Davey
You really won't need to worry about checkerboarding for a couple of years. You need extra boxes of drawn comb and capped honey to do it, and starting from scratch it will probably take you a couple of seasons to get to that point.
This coming year your bees will be busy drawing comb, establishing their brood nest, and putting up stores for next winter. They may even draw out a super for you, but I wouldn't really count on it. The Spring of 2014 is when you will need to be vigilant regarding swarm prevention measures. With no extra drawn supers at that point you'll need to be "opening up the broodnest" to prevent backfilling and swarming. Carniolans start out with small clusters in early spring but they just explode in population once they get going. It can get away from you if you are not on top of it. I think that's one of the reasons they have a reputation for being swarmy. Beekeepers underestimate how quickly they build up and are not prepared for it, and swarms are the result.
They should drawn out some extra supers for you in 2014 and then you can plan to checkerboard in late winter/early spring of 2015. You have plenty of time to prepare. This coming year just enjoy watching them build up.

Hi if I may ask
1. how can we distinguish carniolan from italian?
2. carniolan and carnican are the same ?
or maybe someone could share a link to the proper topic for me , thank you
Carniolan is Apis Mellifera Carnica. Italian honey bees are Apis mellifera ligustica.
The most obvious differences in appearance is the Italians are much more yellow than Carnis
This link explains some of the differences between major honeybee stocks
but it doesn't have photos of each group.

thank you BMAC and Rader , from the picture below can you identify the one above the entrance and those below it? Is the one below italian?
It would appear as though the bottom one is or has more Italian genetics. However Italians can vary quite a bit in exact color.
Is this picture from your colony?
Here's some photos from the beeinformed.org website.

Hi BMAC no it's not from my colony somehow I can't seem to be able to attach a picture from my folder so i tried to search one close to my bees.
Here's a picture from my hive which i have on flicker
Thank you MattDavey for the reference above, whats the are the main differences for the worker bees of the italians and italian carniolan cross, deeper orange color only?
Here is the photo I believe Jackson is attempting to show.
Jackson - I suspect that your Flickr account may not have "Share" permissions set properly to allow direct linking the photo in the manner you first attempted. I had to do it the hard way. Try editing your Flickr permissions and testing it again. You can "Edit" your post above and then use "Go Advanced" then "Preview" to see if it worked. If it isn't what you want, you can just cancel the edit and try again.

Hi Rader Sidetrack,
Thank you for helping me post the picture I'll give it another try, I've changed the permission to public but somehow it just won't accept the file. Same error message Invalid File
Well, it works now.
two types of melli by custom888, on Flickr
When you click on "Share" at Flickr, click the radio button from "HTML" over to "BBCode". Once you copy the code they offer, you can just paste it directly in your Beesource post.
The BBCode that generated the photo link above (and what you should copy) looks like this when you have the Flickr options selected correctly:
[URL="http://www.flickr.com/photos/custom888/10558213513/"]two types of melli[/URL] by [URL="http://www.flickr.com/people/custom888/"]custom888[/URL], on Flickr
Note the ".jpg" towards the end of the second line above. That is a clue that you are linking to a linkable photo, and not what Flickr offered in the original post. Forums like Beesource almost always want BBCode, not HTML code.
The second line in the BBCode above is the only code actually required to post that photo here. The other 3 lines are your caption, code that makes the photo a clickable link to your Flickr account, and a commercial that Flickr throws in just because they can.
This code links just the photo itself, as in the example below:
Note that I removed the [/URL] closing code from the end of line 2 to make it all work.
More info on how BBCode works is available at the BBCode link at the very bottom of every forum thread page.

I personally don't feel that any race of Apis mellifera is inferior to any of the others. It's all a question of how well your practices are adapted to your breeds, or how your breeds are adapted to your practices. Some people will rate bees according to their honey yields... I would consider this to be a mistake. Is A. m. caucasica inferior to A. m. ligustica because it yields less honey...? If you compare the market value of honey and propolis, and factor in how caucasica are heavy propolisers, I'd have a really hard time accepting that caucasica is inferior to ligustica just because it makes a bit less honey.
Just be sure to give your bees room. Carnies are more prone to swarming, so don't let them beard as much as you would with italians.
Yes, I would say any orange bands in a Carniolan would indicate an Italian (or other) cross. But there are also other factors such as lengths of legs that can be used to identify them.
Matthew Davey
Something to keep in mind, though, is that all of our bees are mutts, some just less than others.

Pc David Shreeve was on a motorcycle training course when his bike collided with a lorry in Skelmersdale.
The 38-year-old, who joined Merseyside Police in 1987, leaves a wife, a two-year-old son and a daughter, five.
Chief Constable of Merseyside, Bernard Hogan-Howe, paid tribute to Pc Shreeve, who was "popular and well-respected".
Pc Shreeve, who lived in Wirral, was posted to the traffic division in March 1994 where he trained as a family liaison officer three years ago.
He regularly supported victims of serious and fatal road traffic collisions.
Chief Constable Hogan-Howe said: "This has truly been a tragic loss of an experienced officer, who spent his recent years caring and offering support for others.
"Dave was popular and well respected by his colleagues, going out of his way to tutor and mentor officers of less experience than himself.
"The letters and phone calls of thanks he received from bereaved families and victims of crime are testimony also to his kindness and professionalism, qualities which will be sorely missed by us all."

"I can hardly think it practicable to make a single room so capacious, with pews and galleries, as to hold 2,000 persons, and all to hear the service and see the preacher.

Reasons to VB part 3: XML
Yesterday Beth posted an interview with Erik Meijer showing integrated support for XML in VB. There's a cool examples of using VB9 with XML documents both working with existing documents and creating new ones. Some important things to note in the video:
– You use Imports to create namespace aliases at file level
– Add an XSD to your project and intellisense will use that when you work with the XML
– Support for MXL in VB is not just literals as smoke and mirror string parsing, it includes rich intellisense, XML as a first class citizen, and optimal compilation.
The VB teams not finished with XML by any means, but what's in VB9 is pretty awesome. Unless you are one who believes XML is insignificant, you really must look at VB as the right tool for the job. The inclusion of xsd driven intellisense really adds some serious icing 🙂
It was almost two years ago when I first saw the XML in VB begin. I remember at the time I was sitting in a mini-bus in Redmond one morning about to head out to the campus and we were discussing LINQ and XLINQ. I said a the time this has the serious potential to replace any need to use XSLT. Two years later and that prediction is looking to be very true and then some. The support for XML in VB combined with LINQ gives delayed evaluation, richness of the .NET framework, an incredibly powerful way to work with and create xml.

I have been using stevia for many years both powders and liquids. This is the worst I have tried. The consistency is thick and gooey and the taste is okay at best. I have had other Stevia flavored liquids that were much better!

I have bought a few flavoured liquid stevia's. This is my favourite. While it is tricky to not get it down the side of bottle, just a slow easy hand does it. I use 1 drop with my coffee for a mug. I use malt free soy. In the tuppaware hot drink container I use 2 drops. My coffee's are quite milky(soy) about half soy half water. I also find this devine with cream, over stewed apples etc. And in my porridge as well...lovely.
This is absolutely delicious! My favorite!

This flavors my coffee and sweetens it at the same time. It's delicious. If there were one thing I could change about it, it would be the size of the top of the bottle. It's very thick and seems to get on the outside of the bottle easily. Otherwise, it's totally wonderful stuff1

Produced at Airbus' Centre of Excellence for composite materials in Spain
The first A350 XWB wing lower cover (WLC) has been transported from Airbus' composites manufacturing site in Illescas, Spain, to Airbus' wing assembly site in Broughton, United Kingdom, where it will be installed on to the wing of the first A350 XWB to fly, MSN001. The wing lower cover was recently produced at Airbus' Centre of Excellence for composite materials in Illescas, Spain; the part measures approximately 32 metres long by six metres wide, making it the biggest carbon fibre part ever produced in civil aviation.
"This is a major milestone for the A350 XWB programme and for Airbus in Spain", said Rafael González-Ripoll, Head of Airbus' Centre of Excellence Empennage & Aft -fuselage, "The delivery of the first flying A350 XWB wing lower cover pays tribute to the tremendous achievements made by a highly qualified, technical team. We have again demonstrated our expertise in designing, industrialising and manufacturing primary structures in carbon fibre with the A350 XWB, building on past experiences with other Airbus programmes."
The wing cover will be fitted into the A350 XWB wing in Broughton and afterwards will be transported to Bremen (Germany) where the movable parts will be fitted. Later on, the sub-assembly will go to A350 XWB Final Assembly Line in Toulouse, where it will be joined to the fuselage.
The A350 XWB Family consists of three passenger versions with true long-range capability. In terms of capacity, the A350-800 will offer 270 seats; the A350-900 holds 314 seats while the A350-1000 will have 350 seats respectively. The Family concept allows airlines to best match their A350 XWB fleets to route capacity demands, guaranteeing optimum revenue potential. To date, 35 customers have ordered 567 A350 XWBs. Airbus forecasts a demand over the next 20 years for around 5,800 new twin-aisle mid-size passenger aircraft.
Notes to editor: About the Illescas (Spain) factory
The Airbus factory in Illescas, Spain, specializes in the automation of production processes of large airborne surfaces and fuselage sections, manufactured with advanced composites.
The Illescas factory also manufactures the skin of the rear section of the A350 XWB fuselage. This part is a barrel section in one piece only made of advanced composites; as well as the tail planes, elevators and rudders for all Airbus models and fuselage sections and door components for the landing gear of the A380 model.

framing to do pan decking for a raised porch.
I have a 17'x8' front porch, which has a room underneath. I would like to raise the roof and replace the wood with concrete/metal decking, (pan decking). I want to re-frame with new wood supports underneath. Im just looking for the best way to make sure this is properly framed. Anyone got idea or even better a drawing? thank you for any input.
Some pictures will be needed to get a good suggestion
Do you have pan decking at your disposal,and have you done this type of deck before?
The galvanized pan insert will need some block piers underneath for support. Those piers will also need a footer.
No, i havent done pan decking before.. but ive researched this and it seems the way to go. I dont want to have to deal with replacing anymore wood(and i really dont want that compsite decking.) Thanks guys for the suggestions. :thumbsup:
This is something that is way beyond any residential codes I am aware of.
If you intend to get permits for this in order for you to cover your derriere, I doubt your local Building authority would sign off on anything that is not designed by a licensed engineer.
Gee, I've never seen pan decking on anything other than a multi-story steel framed building. I don't think a wood frame would work with it. I may be missing something here, maybe someone could correct me.
All the public parking garages i've ever been in are pan decks.
No not in my 35 years in the business.

So, today I cheated on Mickey Mouse for a bit so that I could leave the hallowed grounds of Walt Disney World so that I could FINALLY experience the fun stuff at Universal Studios Islands of Adventure … and The Wizarding World of Harry Potter in particular. I got to the park pretty early but still found that there were a lot of people there. Thankfully, I upgraded for an Express Pass and since I'm a single rider, I didn't have to wait in line for a single ride … not one wait longer than about 5 minutes! It was a great day for amusement parking today. I loved the world of Harry Potter as well as the Jurassic Park part of the park and the Marvel Comics part as well. Check out some fun photos below.
First up, the world of Harry Potter. I got to drink some Butter Beer, got to pick out a magic wand and I got to ride the coolest ride ever devoted to Harry Potter and his friends:
The longest wait I endured was for Ollivander's Wand Shop. I think I baked in the sun for about 35 minutes but it was definitely worth the experience. The rest of the day was just ride after ride after ride. The Butter Beer is very good but very sweet. To start the day I drank it cold. At the end of the day I tried it frozen … I prefer it cold :)
From Harry Potter, I moved on to Jurassic Park:
I'll never tire of anything Jurassic-related. The rides are really fun but the big Jurassic Park ride gets you wet — a lot. I saved that ride for last because I didn't want to be soaked all day. Thankfully I didn't get too wet but one of those damed spitter dinos squirted me right in the eye :/
To finish out my day, I spent some time playing with the Marvel Superheros and rode some really fantastic rides:
Don't get me wrong, Disney does everything right … but Universal REALLY gets the 3D interactive ride experience perfectly. The Spider-Man ride is SO cool! You wear 3D glasses on the ride and as things are happening all around you, Spider-Man and his villains are actually in your face making you really feel like you are part of the experience. I was blown away. So much so that I had to ride the dang thing 3 times ;)
I could've stayed in the park all day but I wanted to get back and rest for a bit before dinner and then make my way to Disney's Hollywood Studios to finish out my night. I fly back to LA tomorrow and I may have time to do some fun stuff then but today is my last chance to play so … I'm going to go play! Happy Monday!!0

Remember we brought you news last week of the Samsung Series 9 super-svelte 13.3in, duralumin-encased ZX310 laptop shipping in the States, well get ready to meet its even smaller brother, the 11.6in 900X1A.
The 11.6in display on the 900X-1A comes with a resolution of 1366 x 768 and is encased in the same black duralumin as the ZX310. It will come with the Intel Core-i3 processor, 2GB of RAM, a whopping 128GB SSD (the same as its older brother), a backlit keyboard and Windows Home Premium pre-installed. Connectivity-wise the 11in model has all the ports hidden behind sliding panels on either side, containing two USB ports (1 x 2.0, 1 x 3.0), a microSD card slot and a HDMI port.
While we still await European pricing for the larger model, the 11in laptop will go on sale next month at a price of €1,200 (£1,050) which is around £350 less than what we believe the price of the 13in model will be. The 11in Macbook Air which was released just before Christmas retails for about £850 making it considerably cheaper – though that only gets you 64GB of storage, rising to £999 for the 128GB model.
We await official UK pricing for both models and official release dates, but we are currently awaiting delivery of the 13in model in the office to carry out a full review (the first in the UK) and will let you know our thoughts as soon as possible.

They foisted Dole, McCain and now Romney on us and now Boehner is eating Altoids to kill the taste. Do you really, seriously think they are going to change?
The idea of Hillary running the country is almost as frightening as Obama screwing things up. I'm sure Bill C stood by Obama so they'd stonewall as much as possible the killing of the ambassador. They're all evil.

Have been giving this horrible situation in which we now find ourselves, a lot of thought today.
At first I thought it was due to all the vote stealing that went on; the inadequate planning/strategy on the part of the Romney campaign, etc.
I listened to Rush, read Breitbart, talked to a friend (commiserated actually) and no one came up with an answer that said it as simply as Benjamin Franklin, all those years ago.
When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic.
Sorry to be such a party pooper, but it does seem inevitable to me now, that this *is* what the future has in store for us. ...
I detest the growing population of the lazy no good slackers and brain dead folks with their hands out for everything, and detest even more, the governments that encourage this dependency in return for their votes!!!
STILL DEPLORABLE no matter what faux speed bumps ...
Dems, Libs, & Looney Leftists keep trying to put in Trump's path.

Justice is only for white people. That's the only conclusion that can be drawn from this horrid story.
No charges in WA prison van death case
H/T: Lauredhel, on Twitter
Last year, an elderly Aboriginal man was being transported to Kalgoorlie to stand trial. The air conditioning in the van he was in was not working. The
men woman and man driving the van did not stop to check on his well-being, at all. He died.
And now, neither they nor their managers are being held to account. No charges will be laid, at all. Not even manslaughter charges.
It's hardly an isolated incident. Read the analysis at Overland of the judgement in which five white men got lighter sentences when they beat an aboriginal man to death, because they were
men with white skins of good character. Top blokes, totally out of character: when five white men beat an Aboriginal man to death
And back in New Zealand, remember when a white man got a lighter sentence for killing a brown boy. I'm hearing white privilege all over this. Bruce Emery, who stabbed and killed a 15 year old brown boy, was said to be "an upstanding member of the public…"
Yet again, being white is the ultimate get out of jail free card. And that is awful.
[Edited to correct "men" to "woman and man". Thanks for letting me know, Lauredhel.]

Established in 1992, our residency program has a long tradition of training leaders in emergency medicine with unsurpassed clinical training, an innovative curriculum, and an outstanding mix of advancement opportunities in research, education, global health, and community service.
The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University, which formerly had a small, eight-year bachelor's/MD curriculum has in recent years moved to accepting standard students and the class size has increased to around 120 per year. This high-quality, forward-thinking medical school provides bright and talented students who are educated and mentored by our faculty, fellows, and residents through our popular emergency medicine elective as well as a number of other courses and electives.
The Pediatric Emergency Medicine section is the home of our Pediatric Emergency Medicine Fellowship program, which trains two fellows each year in a three-year fellowship.
The department has a diverse and successful research enterprise with two basic science laboratories and a full infrastructure to support clinical research. We have four research faculty PhDs in the department who work collaboratively with our physicians in cutting-edge emergency medicine research.
Academic and Clinical Excellence
The many divisions and programs in the department support the academic mission and provide outstanding training experiences for fellows, residents, and medical students.
Experienced, well-funded academic faculty members lead divisions in EMS, injury prevention, international emergency medicine, medical simulation, resuscitation and critical care, sports medicine, toxicology, ultrasound, and women's health. Fellowships are currently offered or are planned in each of these divisions.
Programs in chest pain, disaster, quality and patient safety, stroke, medical humanities, and service at the Rhode Island Free Clinic round out the department's efforts.
