How to remove this interior trim piece (above the mirror)
I need to remove this plastic part:
I've pulled the visors off and the two latches for the freedom tops, but it still will not come loose. What other connections am I missing?
Thanks for the time and help.
It is held in with the visors and clips.With visors off Just pull on it and it will come loose.
I had mine out running wires for my Nexus 7 mounted on ram mount.
Thanks, are they the push in style clips? I assume they are just spaced along that piece?
Yes. The clips will stay on the plastic piece when you pull it off.

If people running the nearly two-dozen-and-counting fake Apple stores in China were on top of their game, each outlet would have its own Fake Steve Jobs. That's how you achieve authenticity -- the details.
Instead, the unauthorized stores selling either smuggled Apple products or knockoffs are being shut down left and right. From Reuters:
Authorities in China's southwestern city of Kunming have identified another 22 unauthorized Apple retailers weeks after a fake of the company's store in the city sparked an international storm.China's Administration for Industry and Commerce in the Yunnan provincial capital said the stores have been ordered to stop using Apple's logo after Apple China accused them of unfair competition and violating its registered trademark, state media said on Thursday.
Notice that all of the unauthorized Apple stores were found in one city, Kunming. What's up with that? A quick look at Wikipedia tells me that Kunming has an urban population of 3.2 million and a metropolitan population of 6.8 million. The city certainly is big enough to accommodate two dozen or so fake Apple store! But it's also only the 16th-largest city in China. Are we to believe that fake Apple stores are a Kunming-specific phenomenon? It doesn't make sense. When this is all said and done, expect to see hundreds of unauthorized Apple stores in China. And when that happens, the real Steve Jobs is going to flip out.

Game analyst Michael Pachter, like all of us, is pleased that Sony priced the PlayStation 4 at $399. In fact, Pachter believes that Sony now makes a profit on each PlayStation 4 console made. His guess: about $25 to $30 profit on each console.
However, Pachter provided a bit of inside news as well, saying that Sony waited for Microsoft to announce the price on the Xbox One. Microsoft announced that the Xbox One would cost $499, but had they said $399, Sony "really couldn't go lower than $399, they really couldn't go to $349", said Pachter, who spoke to a Sony executive after the announcement.
Pachter also comments on the DRM issue, saying that he doesn't see any publishers turning on the DRM feature on the PlayStation 4. By default, Sony offers DRM on the PS4, but it's not on — it's up to publishers to do it.

DIY (do it yourself) LAST MINUTE VALENTINE IDEAS
For the pun-lovers out there, this is a really creative play on the classic "chocolate" for Valentine's Day gift!
Here's a similar concept, but instead of notes around the house, pop this "I Love You Because" printable into a frame and fill in the blank with a dry erase marker all year round. Guaranteed to give your man the warm fuzzies!
Or if Swedish Fish are more his thang, then here's a fantastic printable by Lil Luna:
Carving initials in a tree is so 2013. Carving your initials in a wax candle is where it's at, folks! (And if you don't have a linoleum carver, I betcha a small flathead or cuticle remover tool would work just fine n' dandy!)
Here's a fun way to deliver a love note. In a heart pocket on a pillow! And while Melanie says this only took her 30 minutes or so to create the entire thing, pillow cover and all, you could always hijack one of those random throw pillows you have lying around, and give it a facelift with the heart pocket!
Have one under Boston's pillow this morning – so Boston if you're listening be sure to check under the pillow
5 C. Rice Chex cereal
3/4 C. white chocolate melts or chips
1/4 C. chocolate melts or chips
2 oz cream cheese, room temp
1 1/2 Tbsp. milk
1 C. Red Velvet Cake mix
1/2 C. powdered sugar
Valentines colored M&M's or other candies
Heart sprinkles for extra decoration and cute-ness
1. Measure out Rice Chex cereal and place into a large bowl.
2. Place cake mix and powdered sugar into a large plastic bag or tupperware with a lid.
3. Melt chocolates together in the microwave or on the stove top. Careful not to burn and stir until smooth.
4. Stir in cream cheese and milk (the chocolate will get thicker, but it's okay)
5. Pour chocolate over Rice Chex cereal and stir until coated.
6. Dump cereal into the bag or tupperware with powdered sugar and cake mix. Shake, shake, shake until coated.
7. Dump onto a cookie sheet and let cool.
8. Mix with extra colorful candies and serve!
NOTE: Because of the cream cheese, keep in the fridge if you won't be eating them that day. You can also omit the cream cheese all together if you wish...if you do that, you don't need the milk either!
ALSO – Notes around the house in heart shaped boxes. Ive done this the past 2 years (so I have to change it up this year) for Boston and he said it was his favorite gift.
All of you will be receiving a card in the mail from me! This is something the ladies would really like. It will surprise her. Do it this morning tho…or just run out to the mailbox and put it in there so she gets it when she grabs the mail for the day.
I'm really diggin' the look of this rustic photo block. Perfect for your rugged guy!

30 Awesome Ideas For Valentine's Friend Dates
Whether you're single by choice or circumstance, Valentine's Day can seem more like Single's Awareness Day instead of a day celebrating love. Rather than dreading February 14, why not try something different? Celebrating with your girlfriends is a great alternative to sitting at home alone or feeling jealous about the flowers that co-worker received from her boyfriend.
So in the spirit of love, here are 30 ideas to spark your creativity for celebrating this Valentine's Day with your besties.
- Host a karaoke night.
- Have a Wii dance party. You might want to try Zumba, belly dancing, disco or stripper moves.
- Go out for manis and pedis.
- Treat each other to lunch. Yes, you'll each still have a bill, but somehow it's still fun to know you were treated to lunch!
- Send each other a gift at work. Who doesn't love to receive flowers or chocolate for Valentine's Day and letting the whole office see?
- Send each other "what I love about you" notes. This is your chance to tell her how much you love her brilliance or kindness or sense of humor or… And you'll get to hear the same from her!
- You've heard of Secret Santa. Why not a Secret St. Valentine?
- Get a box of Valentines like you did in elementary school and send them to all your girlfriends.
- Open a bag of candy hearts and talk about who would be your dream recipient for each message. Then make up messages you wish were on the hears as you drop them in glasses of champagne.
- Girl power movie marathon. My favorite is Legally Blonde.
- Host a sex toy party. No, it's not your mother's Mary Kay party. It's a whole lot more fun!
- Take the day off and do something adventurous or fun outdoors. Maybe this Valentine's Day will be when you each can cross skydiving off your bucket list!
- Retail therapy. A new pair of shoes always make a day better!
- Get a massage.
- Get Tarot readings.
- Giggle about your worst dates ever at the hottest bar in town. You'll be sure to attract attention.
- Commit to a day of good deeds and share the stories with each other over dinner.
- Give out Valentine's Day cards at a retirement home or hospice.
- Give out Valentine's Day cards at your local fire station.
- Visit a pet shelter and cuddle or walk the pets.
- Have a potluck dessert party.
- Have a marshmallow fight. The boys have paintball and we have marshmallows. Each of you gets a bag of stale marshmallows to use as ammunition. (They're less sticky when they're stale, but still tasty!)
- Update or create on-line dating profiles.
- Host a flower arranging event. Get a bunch of flowers from a florist or grocery store. Ask everyone to bring a vase and spend the evening with wine, conversation and flower arranging.
- Setup a wine tasting party at your home, the local wine store or even a winery.
- Host a craft party — even macaroni crafts — with prizes for the most outlandish, etc.
- Host a dream date party: Everyone brings a picture of their favorite celebrity and a story of their ideal date with them. The best story wins a prize.
- Why I like being single! Being single can actually be kinda fabulous. Get together and talk about what's perfect about being single. You're bound to get some new perspectives.
- Plan and cook a fabulous meal together. Serve it up like a 5-star restaurant would.
- Do a "chore" for each other. There are all kinds of ways to feel loved and sometimes getting help doing a "chore" can be a great way to demonstrate and experience love.
Just because you're not romantically linked up doesn't mean you can't spend Valentine's Day feeling and spreading the love. Give it a try and you're sure to have a blast with your besties!
If you're looking to do more than wait in line for 2 hours at a restaurant, or watch a movie on the couch at home, we have 10 unique, inexpensive, romantic Valentine's Date Ideas for you this year:
1. Fondue Dinner at Home
Skip the price tag and wait and grab some savory and sweet items to dip for a romantic dinner together at home.
2. Paddle Boat or Canoe Rental
Inexpensive, romantic, and completely memorable
3. BYOB Paint Studio
If you don't have one in your area grab a canvas and paint and copy a template- you can do this one at home!
4. Make Breakfast in Bed
Breakfast food is sweet and romantic, and out of the norm for a Valentine's Day date. And it's in bed, so I don't think I need to say much more on that one!
5. Massage Night
Whether you book a couple's massage in advance or decide to buy some massage oil/lotion and give each other one at home, this is a very romantic date that sets the mood quickly!
6. Sweets Tour of Your City
Many large cities off these, but you could come up with one on your own. Visit several bakeries and find the best cupcake. Try chocolates at many places. Eat a scoop of ice cream at all your local establishments, and create a score card for each finding the best sweet in your city together.
7. Make Hand Dipped Chocolate
Sure you can buy a box, but dipping them yourselves creates a romantic night in with chocolates customized just the way you like them.
8. Take a Dance Class
Always wanted to salsa/tango? Is there a better night than Valentine's to hold hands, get close, and learn some dance moves?
9. Go Perfume/Cologne Shopping
We actually did this one last year and never documented it. We decided that was a romantic gift and we'd spend a night together smelling everything the mall had to offer. We walked out with a scent we both loved for each of us. It was a romantic night and romantic gift that keeps on giving.
10. Take a cooking class/cook a romantic dinner at home
The two formal classes we took were a bit pricey, but worth the memory for sure! However, we've had many equally romantic nights in cooking a dinner at home. If you don't know where to start think of a restaurant in your area you both adore and copy their menu together. Don't forget the sparkling cider/champagne- make sure you go all out on this one!

Safety First: The Florida Gator Football Team Looks To Fill A Pressing Need
Published March 29th, 2011
Loading Video...
Major Wright, Ahmad Black and Will Hill formed a dangerous triumvirate two years ago that made the Florida Gator football team one of the deepest teams in the country at the safety position. Now that all three are gone, Will Muschamp will look to a group of young contenders to fill the void. Matt Elam headlines the group: Elam recorded 22 tackles in 2010 while making appearances in all 13 games. Only one returner has any starting experience: Josh Shaw got three starts in Urban Meyer's final season as Florida's Head Coach.

A Physics Curveball
hat is, according to Alexander Petersen (GRS'11), a passionate baseball fan and physics doctoral student. Using statistical physics theory, he's found a way to compare baseball players over the generations, whether they played in the "dead-ball" era in the early 1900s or the "steroids" era beginning in the 1990s. While his baseball findings will interest fans of the game, the larger patterns he's discovered across many kinds of careers may have greater implications for measuring individuals' success relative to others in diverse fields.
These patterns emerged after Petersen, with H. Eugene Stanley, an Arts & Sciences professor of physics, and Orion Penner (GRS'06), a PhD student in the complexity science group at the University of Calgary, "detrended" historical American baseball statistics using power-law probability density functions, which scientists use to understand competition-driven systems. "Basically," says Petersen, "detrending corresponds to removing the inflationary factor; so, we could compare two items like the cost of a candy bar in 1920 to the cost of a candy bar in 2000. In this case, we compare Babe Ruth's home runs—the ability of someone to get a home run then versus now—and you see Babe Ruth actually hit a lot of home runs on this relative basis." Petersen's new statistics compare career longevity, success, and productivity. When comparing the baseball statistics, he was startled to discover a statistical pattern, what he calls a "beautiful" power-law curve (a type of bell curve), emerging from seemingly random careers.
Photo by Mark Rucker/Transcendental Graphics/Getty Images
The three researchers present their findings in a paper titled "Detrending career statistics in professional baseball: accounting for the Steroids Era and beyond." In Petersen's rankings, which emphasize how a player performed relative to his contemporaries as well as to players over the decades, the recent big-name home run hitters—Sammy Sosa, Jim Thome, Mark McGwire, Manny Ramirez—drop significantly down the list of top hitters throughout history. The aforementioned New York Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez drops 425%, from number 8 to number 42. "The relative significance of their accomplishments gets reduced because their contemporaries are hitting a lot of home runs as well," says Petersen. Players like Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, and Ted Williams shoot up the list because they were giants in their own era as well as across the decades. Petersen says his approach is a way to make the statistics fairer: beyond just accounting for the possible effects of steroids, detrending allows for changes in equipment, diet, conditioning, even medical procedures like "Tommy John" surgery (replacing a ligament in the elbow with a tendon to lengthen a pitching career), none of which are illegal but all of which have changed the game since Ruth's time.
While Petersen's work has implications for both historical rankings and Baseball Hall of Fame inductions, it has even broader implications for human enterprise in general. The power-law pattern that emerged through his detrended analysis of American baseball stats stayed the same when the physicists compared Korean baseball statistics, then those of other professional sports, and eventually data on nonathletic careers, such as academic research. The pattern remained consistent, a statistical regularity across disciplines and careers.
"In every career," says Petersen, "there are metrics for success and productivity." And when mapped out, those metrics form a distinct pattern.
While Petersen's work has implications for both historical rankings and Baseball Hall of Fame inductions, it has even broader implications for human enterprise in general.
"The idea of a statistical regularity is not so hard to understand in the case of the bell curve that quantifies human height," says Stanley, who is Petersen's advisor and director of the Center for Polymer Studies, which conducts interdisciplinary research. "But any regularity with free will just blows my mind because I was brought up believing everything depended to a large extent on my choices. And now here's the idea that despite my actions, I just end up fitting into some formula."
Petersen originally looked at baseball statistics both because he loves the game and because the sport uniquely has very meticulously recorded data going back to the 1800s. But although baseball had the most complete data, he points out, when a different type of career is analyzed, a similar statistical regularity appears: "You can quantify it with a law—a law of human success, a law of human productivity." Petersen's data indicates that how well we succeed relative to others has less to do with our own drive and more to do with the drive of those around us, whether on the baseball diamond or in a physics lab. ■

Deploying Guard Commander Describes Mission
The man leading Vermont National Guard troops into Afghanistan says they could face hazardous duty in the war-ravaged nation, which is experiencing an uptick in U.S. casualties.
Colonel Will Roy, of Jericho, commander of the 3,000-member 86th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, says the unit will be training and mentoring Afghan security forces on the yearlong mission.
Roy says his unit - which has about 1,500 Vermont National Guard members - is prepared but acknowledges that the troops could be in harm's way during the deployment.
On Wednesday, Taliban militants stormed a U.S. guest house in Kabul, killing 12 people in the latest attacks ahead of next month's presidential runoff election.

Hello, I'm new to the forums.
Here are the URLs to two pictures of one of my puppies. My dog (mix breed) had the puppies yesterday (January 3rd). Most of the litter has been fine, except for this one. He can't walk. His arm is connected at the elbow to his body (in the second picture). His head is frequently up at the angle that it is at in the first picture. You can move it down to a more normal position, but he will move it back to the upwards position.
What should I do? I've been having to put his mouth up against the mother's nipple and squeezing to get anything into him. He won't move and doesn't suckle. We have been keeping the mother outside of our house in an enclosed tool shed, but it is still kind of cold where she is being kept. Any advice? what is wrong with him?

Very dissatisfied patient
I was given infrared treatments at Dr. Cutler's Relief Clinic for one year. These procedures were excruciating and the pain lasted for weeks. It was impossible to communicate with the doctor or staff concerning my degree of pain and I was always told that I just needed more treatments. Finally after one year, I can honestly say that my condition is worse. I would not recommend this doctor to anyone.

Basic bait and switch (Dr. Cutler Proctologist)
Visited the Jupiter office for hemorrohid diagnosis and treatment. Nice clean office but I noticed that all the patients in the waiting room were angry. I assumed that it was just a group of angry people and didnt attribute it to the office. I was quoted a fee for the office visit and 2 IPL hemorroid treatments. After a 1.5 hour wait during the office visit the Dr. was nice enough and did a good job. Upon leaving I paid the office visit portion and 2 prescriptions were supposed to be called in. The prescriptions were never called in. I attempted to contact the office and left messages. One week later I received a call stating that my RX had been called in. By that time I had given up and was using over the counter meds.Later I show up for my IPL hemorroid treatment. To my suprise the fee had been increased from $200 to $475. After questioning the fee to the office manager, my converstion was overheard and the only other person in in the waiting area stepped up and said that his fee was increase also.I was then invited to the back room where Dr. Cutler tried to justify the increase in price to me, all while scribbling numbers on a piece of scrap paper and telling me that his laser costs "a lot of money."I just listened and then left the office.I figure after the office visit and returning for treatment, even at an increased price most patients needing help would not just leave like I did. Most would just pay the extra to get treatment. I guess this explains all the angry patients in the waiting room at my first appointment.Too big a coincidence for the only 2 people in the waiting room to have the same "error" in billing. It stands to reason that this goes on all day long with every patient. Classic bait-and-switch.

Despite leading shares continuing to come under pressure on global economic concerns, there are a few bright spots.
One of them is outsourcing group Serco, up 22p at 566p after a buy note from Bank of America Merrill Lynch with a 670p target. Merrill's analysts said the company's shares had fallen 7% over the last month and are trading at the bottom of their recent range. But with growth potential in the UK as the drag from government cuts decreases, along with the acquisition of Intelenet this month, as well as the prospects in Asia Pacific, Merrill is positive about the outlook. It forecasts organic growth to accelerate from 3% in the first half of 2011 to 7% in 2012 and 8% in 2013.
It cites a number of reasons why there will be a pick up in the UK:
[These include] tenders in local government which could expand the market by 20% by 2013, the emergence of new markets with the Police and Borders Agency, the next wave of justice and defence outsourcing and mid size bids in environmental and health. News on large bids for MOD army recruitment, Peterborough Council, and Lincolnshire Police are due in the second half.

Leave it to a party-school ultimate frisbee team to take things too far.
The Colorado College team filmed a Harlem Shake video in mid-air during Frontier Airlines Flight 157 earlier this month.
The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating the airline as a result, according to a report from the Los Angeles Times.
The ultimate frisbee team asked flight attendants and fellow passengers for permission before filming the ultimate Harlem Shake video. They were evidently betting on a yes, though, since one team member came prepared with a banana suit.
The video is very shaky, which may be the cause of the FAA's concern. A flight attendant said the video was filmed while the "fasten seat belts" sign was off. The shaking is the result of poor camera work, she said.
The passengers look to be enjoying themselves, but, even so, one has to wonder if the FAA ban video cameras and banana suits from all flights.
We'll keep you posted. In the meantime, educate yourself on how the Harlem Shake craze is weird white ripoff of an actual dance style popular in the 1980s. And watch these Harlem youth killing it.

Sundays Healthy Eating Plan with Dr Rick Kausman: WEEK THREE
December 01, 2013 , 1:19 PM by Bridget Fitzgerald
Dr Rick Kausman and two special guests joined Sundays for our final Healthy Eating Plan segment. This week are looking at exercise and nutrition.
Does physical activity have to hurt to be worthwhile? Or are there still benefits for our health in looking for movement where we can find it? Dr Rick and physiotherapist Steve Sandor will discuss different ways we can look to move our body without the outdated notion of the old 'no pain no gain' philosophy.
How do we get the balance between what we know is healthy for us to eat without being deprived of the food we enjoy? Dietician Fiona Willer will discuss ways we can still have our cake and eat it too.

Up for sale is a set of 16'' stock 6 spoke wheels off my zx3. They are currently plastidipped black but I can easily take that off if need be. 3 of the tires are at 50% and the 4th is at 90%. One wheel does have a bend. I would prefer local pick up, but im willing to drive to meet someone as well. Thanks for looking!
wish you lived closer i would pick these up.
Of course someone far away would want them. :( lol Thanks for the bump anyways. :D
Same here id love to have them but from Texas to you is a long drive
Yep its pretty far. lol If I still have them by time FF13 rolls around, I will bring them with me. I hope someone buys them by then though. I am needing some room in my dads barn!
Does the bend in the wheel affect the ride?
No. Well it didnt. It was in the back and had always held air fine. I had a different tire put on it, and suddenly it could only hold air up to 25 ilbs. Im sure you could bring it to a shop and have them put some more bead locker on it. Even if it ends up not being usable, you are still getting 3 usable rims with 3 tires at 50% and one at 90%. But I drove around like that on the interstate and everything for 2 days and the air would always stop leaking at 25 lbs. It was usable, just the tire looked low. I always try to keep it honest!

The opposition has trained its guns on Joe Hockey on the first day of resumed parliamentary sittings, casting the Treasurer as the government's weakest link and his budget as dead in the water.
The aggressive move came as the embattled Treasurer moved to beef up his sales pitch, hiring an acclaimed author to write his speeches and improve his communciations team.
With Labor convinced it has the government in trouble, it directed every question to Mr Hockey, buttressed by backbench taunts suggesting he was sweating too much, was losing the confidence of his own backbench and was incapable of understanding the hardships of life for low-income Australians.
With the pressure mounting over stalled budget items, and concerns over the government's sales job, Mr Hockey has hired author David Hunt as his speechwriter.
"I was really impressed with Girt, he's obviously a brilliant writer. He also has public service experience and I believe he will be a great person to work with," Mr Hockey told Fairfax Media.
Liberal colleagues concede Mr Hockey, who started out as the government's best parliamentary performer, has lost a degree of authority and confidence during the difficult post-budget period, during which Labor and the Greens have played hard-ball and the new independent-dominated Senate has flexed its muscles.
Hunt is the author of the bestselling book Girt, a humorous take on Australian history. He is also a public policy consultant.
But what he is not is an unquestioning supporter of Coalition policy. In fact, a quick trawl though his work on the social media site, Twitter, shows Hunt has been a trenchant critic of the government, issuing scathing critiques of its stance on asylum seekers, climate change, same-sex marriage and even Mr Hockey's first budget.
The day after the budget was released, Hunt tweeted "UNREAL SOLUTIONS. REAL LIES." with a Photoshopped image posted by actor and Labor supporter Rhys Muldoon.
That same day, he said "Commonwealth cuts to state health budgets will help end the blame game. Now we know exactly who to blame."
In November: 'John Howard preferred his "instinct" to scientific advice. Abbott's instinct is to kill off scientific advice" accompanied by an article about cuts to the CSIRO.
Hunt also labelled Australia's asylum seeker policy '#Australianshame', lamented a lack of progress on same-sex marriage, and criticised the Prime Minister for the lack of women in cabinet.
Despite this unfriendly commentary, the Treasurer seems to be fan of his work. In July, he congratulated Hunt on Girt via Twitter: 'well done David, "Girt" is a terrific read.' The author responded with a warm "Cheers Joe. Volume 2 proving to be a trickier bugger."
In a ferocious question time, Mr Hockey appeared to show signs of clear stress between questions, leaning forward and repeatedly re-reading briefing notes.
The government has shifted its rhetoric over the budget situation in recent days and now talks of the "budget mess" left by Labor, as opposed to the more extreme language used in the past in which the budget was said to be in crisis and facing an imminent emergency.
Yet key items remain no closer to resolution. Among them, the proposed $7 GP co-payment which has been the subject of discussions with independent senators, and proposed changes to higher education funding.
Earlier this month, Mr Hockey got himself into bother with remarks interpreted as suggesting the petrol excise increase which is also being blocked in the Senate was fair because poor people tend not to drive cars.
He later issued an apology.
The government is hoping to bring its mining tax repeal bill package back into the parliament as early as next week but is yet to secure a commitment of support from the crossbench.
When asked by Fairfax Media about Mr Hunt's previous positions on government policies, a spokesperson for the Treasurer said: "He is not being engaged for his policy advice, he is being engaged for his writing skills."

Microsoft have confirmed further details for the upcoming Halo 4, this time announcing "Halo Infinity Multiplayer. The new addition said to build upon Halo's multiplayer history and 'innovate and redefine the way people think about storytelling and multiplayer experiences'.
The hub of the Halo 4 multiplayer experience is the UNSC Infinity – the largest starship in the UNSC fleet that serves as the centre of your Spartan career. From here players will be able to build their custom Spartan-IV supersoldier as they progress their multiplayer career across competitive and cooperative game modes.
Surrounded by the sights, sounds and crew of the biggest vessel in the UNSC fleet, your multiplayer experience will be embedded in the fiction of the franchise, progress and game choices even affecting the appearance, arsenal and role of your digital presence on the battlefield.
The story of the UNSC Infinity intersects with the single-player campaign, then continues on in a brand-new, story-driven experience known as "Spartan Ops". An episodic adventure that blends storytelling, cinematics, and action to deliver an unprecedented serialised experience across Xbox Live.
Microsoft confirming that the associated episodes will centre on the UNSC Infinity leaders and crew, and a new team of Spartans – Majestic Squad – and will be playable in single-player or cooperatively (with up to three friends) as players explore the corners of Requiem.
The mutilplayer announcements don't end there either with "War Games" modes of competitive online play also announced which take place on the combat deck of the UNSC Infinity.
Elsewhere, what Microsoft dub "Total Combat Freedom" expands the existing suite of multiplayer modes, weapons, vehicles, armour abilities, while the game is also set to introduce a new loadout and player progression system, and a new armour modification system that introduces gameplay-enhancing customisations for a first time in the franchise, with players earning combat enhancements called "Specialisations" based on their style of play.
Halo 4 will release on Xbox 360 on 6 November 2012.

Buster Posey's bat, Angel Pagan's glove bury Reds
The Giants have advanced the NLCS to face either the Cardinals or Nationals after topping the Reds in Game 5 of the NLDS.
|Buster Posey's bat did the talking in the decisive Game 5 in Cincinnati. (US Presswire)
The Giants, in coming back from down 0-2 to eliminate the Reds, became the first team in baseball history to do so while winning the final three games of a best-of-five series on the road. Here's how they cinched a spot in the NLCS ...
|More playoff coverage
Hero: It was Angel Pagan's outstanding catch in the bottom of the eighth that ended (yet another) potential Cincinnati rally. It was an impossibly risky play, too. If Pagan missed the sinking liner, then the best-case scenario (from the Giants' standpoint) was probably a 6-5 lead with the tying run on third. But Pagan's boldness paid off in a big way. And that's how you become a hero despite an 0-for-5 day at the plate.
Goat: The Reds, despite being down 6-0 in the fifth inning, had their chances for a comeback. Their best chance might have come in the sixth. But a strikeout-throw-out that retired Ryan Hanigan at the plate and Jay Bruce at third base snuffed out their hopes. Before all that unfolded, Hanigan represented the potential tying run. You could really pick your moment, though, as the Reds brought the tying run to the plate in each of the last four innings. On the day, Cincy went 2-for-13 with runners in scoring position. Such a lack of clutch hitting helped do them in.
Turning point: Buster Posey's grand slam off Mat Latos seemed to drive a stake into the heart of the Reds. While they showed life in the late innings, Posey's blast provided a margin that was too much to overcome.
It was over when: Latos was stellar through four innings, but he spontaneously combusted in the fifth. Here's the damnable sequence of events that helped end the Reds' season: single, RBI triple, groundout, E6, walk, single, grand slam.
Next: The Giants will move on to face either the Cardinals or Nationals in the NLCS. The Reds, meanwhile, will begin their offseason.

PiXL Edge is a framework for secondary schools and sixth form providers to develop and accredit in students those personal attributes essential for employability and life. At Sale High School we have launched the initiative with our Y8 Students. Students will continue with the programme throughout their school journey right through to Y11.
The scheme focusses on 5 key attributes:
- Leadership
- Organisation
- Resilience
- Initiative
- Communication
Students must complete activity programmes each term related to the key attributes. These are then accredited through the examination board and students qualify at three levels;
- Apprentice
- Graduate
- Master
Activities can take place in or out of school, be curricular or extra-curricular, but must be selected from our PiXL activities database.
The network of PiXL Edge schools allows exchange of ideas and opportunities for activities in which students develop their key attributes.
Students set their own pace and record their progress using a specially designed online secure platform. Until now, there has been no national framework drawing together and accrediting the huge range of valuable activities which students undertake alongside their academic activities.
Here are some photographs of our Y8s completing their activities.

Bundesliga relegation candidates in the 2012-13 campaign may be falling over themselves to ensure they're bottom of the table come next Christmas after what Christian Streich's Freiburg have done this season.
It's getting to be a familiar scenario — the team rock-bottom and all but down-and-out in Germany's top flight at the halfway stage produces a miraculous recovery to preserve their place at the top table.
Moenchengladbach did it last season under Lucien Favre, Freiburg are doing it this season under Streich.
The south-westerners had just three points more than Gladbach did at the halfway stage last season, were five points adrift of safety and were selling their star striker, Papiss Demba Cisse, to Newcastle when Santa came calling.
Out went Marcus Sorg, Streich was promoted upwards from the assistant's role, despite never having previously coached a senior side, and they are now seven points clear of the bottom three and virtually safe.
Only Dortmund, Bayern and Stuttgart have picked up more than the 23 points Freiburg have mustered in the Ruckrunde — the second half of the season — while points have been taken off Gladbach, Bayern, Leverkusen and Schalke. How has Streich turned around the seemingly un-turnaroundable?
The move to promote Streich looked like one more unimaginative switch from a club flailing for any solution in a storm. Streich, though, did not come to Freiburg as part of the baggage attached to Sorg — himself internally promoted — nor even Robin Dutt, his predecessor.
Locally born and a former Freiburg player, Streich has been at the club as Under-19 coach since 1995, meaning many of the home-grown talents in the current side, like Johannes Flum and Oliver Baumann, were nurtured by him while he was also a very familiar face to influential first-teamers such as Cedric Makiadi.
Streich has used that authority to galvanise the team and also improve it by using his unique insight into the club's up-and-coming talents, such as Oliver Sorg and Matthias Ginter.
Markus Babbel, the coach of last weekend's opponents Hoffenheim, said his team would require "energy and aggression" to counter Freiburg, and there is no doubt the effervescent Streich has infused some of his own verve into his team.
A veritable hive of activity in his technical area, Streich exudes an enthusiasm and confidence that rubs off on his team. "We believe more in ourselves," was how Flum recently explained Freiburg's reversal of fortunes, adding Streich is "unbelievably happy with our commitment."
Many thought the departure of Cisse, who scored 22 of the club's 41 Bundesliga goals last season, would be the death knell of the team rather than the wake-up call they needed.
"Teams knew our system was set up for Papiss Cisse, that he was the key man — keep him quiet, and Freiburg have no chance," said captain Cedric Makiadi. "Now, others are coming forward and scoring goals like Daniel Caligiuri, who's doing sensationally. That makes us more unpredictable."
Caligiuri is an excellent example. Without a goal in his first 50 Bundesliga appearances, the midfielder now has five in his last 11. The fact no team has had more different scorers in the league than Freiburg — 16 — tells the story of how the squad has pulled together to share the goalscoring burden.
That unity, which has been fostered and flourished under Streich, has helped fill the gaps produced by Freiburg's misfortune with injury. The excellent Jonathan Schmid has filled in in defence despite being an attacking midfielder, while January signing Karim Guede has played in three different positions in his first seven Bundesliga games.
"It's impressive how people have jumped into the breach when others have been injured and performances haven't suffered, even though we've had to play virtually every week with a different line-up," noted sporting director Dirk Dufner, whose club have used 30 players this season, more than any side bar Wolfsburg and Kaiserslautern.
A point at Hannover this weekend will almost certainly ensure Freiburg will be in the Bundesliga next season with games against Cologne and Dortmund to come.
Under Streich - branded "the best football educator in Germany" by Thomas Tuchel no less — the club's short- and long-term future looks rosy.
"We're taking a new direction with these young players," said Freiburg full-back Andreas Hinkel, one of Stuttgart's former Junge Wilde, who — ironically — sees himself pushed towards the exit by the emergence of Streich's own fledglings.
The intensity which Streich puts into his work suggests the man must find it hard to wind down. "I do that best at home," says the 46-year-old. "When I can sleep peacefully."
He should be having no problems doing that now.

Much to my chagrin, my dad recently sold his original Tudor Monte Carlo. I've wanted his watch since I was a kid. He bought a vintage Submariner though, so I suppose that's alright.
Its for sale at a jeweler in Barrie, Ontario if anyone is interested.
I sell them and that RM56 is SICK! I tried selling it to one of my clients so I could play with the watch for a couple of days, but is a no go and I am pretty sure they are all sold out by now.

question since it seems as though you're a watch dealer (or maybe these pics are taken off the net)
but when a customer comes in and lets say buys that radar watch, do you give him a new one boxed or the one on display?
went to a watch place with my dad who was picking out an omega and the guy let him try it out. my dad said he'd take it and then the dealer went to box the one on display, my dad said he wanted a new one and the dealer literally got upset.
who wouldn't want one boxed instead of one that everyone and their grand father tries on in store?
also the guy "couldn't" find one in the back.
That being said, say We get a watch, We store the box and papers on the back and display the watch.
We Never get more than one on any given piece, so there not another one to give to people.
And watches don't go "bad" because some one touches them. The watch maker touched it and who ever shipped it from Switzerland and a number of other people.
You can ask the sales person to clean it with alcohol if you want. But the new watch should be flawless with no nicks of any sort. Maybe you guys had a misunderstanding and or the sales person was a d-bag. Who knows.
Either way, is not like you test drive a car and you ask for another one.
Dealers will have many tens of thousands of dollars of watches on display, they're not going to double that number in order to have extras on hand.
Ahh, ok, I just reread your post. That makes sense.
I sold 2 of these already and I havent even seen them yet!!! They have a White Sapphire bezel! sick!

I read about these new Ralph Lauren watches. They are super expensive and very niceeeee. Made for RL by Jaeger-LeCoultre.

The Utah State Board of Education (USBE) no longer evaluates programs and recommends you use programs already evaluated by the Council on Standards for International Educational Travel (CSIET).
CSIET was established in 1984 after a study showed no industry-wide standards for foreign exchange programs. Exchange program members of CSIET are carefully reviewed yearly for compliance with rules and regulations established by the United States Department of State, including background checks for host families and ensuring entering students meet all visa requirements. Programs or organizations not members of CSIET have not been evaluated and problems arising with exchange students will be directed solely tough that program without the backing of CSIET. District and charter schools are solely responsible for the programs with which they work.
Senate Bill (S.B.) 5 amendments to the Minimum School Program (MSP) Budget, will take effect on July 1, 2007 which includes changes in policy for foreign exchange students. The World Language specialist will administer this program.
District and charter schools will be reimbursed the equivalent of the current year's value of the Weighted Pupil Unit for each foreign exchange student enrolled on October 1. State funding for exchange students is limited to a total of 328 students. The quota of exchange students per district and charter school will be set by the USBE on January 1. Any unused allocation will be redistributed on May 15.

That makes sense. The varroa have an over wintering group that is dormant and has a longer life cycle, just like the bees in the cluster. With this in mind, when is the best time to treat? In the spring when they are weak and just getting started or the fall when you want to reduce the population going into the cluster?
. Come January, viable queens begin in earnest to lay eggs, cold or not.
My treatment for varroa consists of interrupting the brood cycle, which for Italians usually means splitting the hive or caging the queen, whereas Russian bees do it on their own. Probably one of the major reasons Russians are more varroa resistant.

About The Author:
James Patterson had been working as a very successful advertising copywriter when he decided to put his Masters degree in English to a somewhat different use. Inspired by bestselling hair-raising thrillers like The Day of the Jackal and The Exorcist, Patterson went to work on his first novel. Published in 1976, The Thomas Berryman Number established him as a writer of tightly constructed mysteries that move forward with the velocity of a bullet. For his startling debut, Patterson was awarded the prestigious Edgar Award for Best First Mystery Novelan auspicious beginning to one of the most successful careers in publishing.
A string of gripping standalone mysteries followed, but it was the 1992 release of Along Came a Spider that elevated Patterson to superstar status. Introducing Alex Cross, a brilliant black police detective/forensic psychologist, the novel was the first installment in a series of bestselling thrillers that has proved to be a cash cow for the author and his publisher.
Examining Patterson's track record, it's obvious that he believes one good series deserves another…maybe even a third! In 2001, he debuted the Women's Murder Club with 1st to Die, a fast-paced thriller featuring four female crime fighters living in San Franciscoa homicide detective, a medical examiner, an assistant D.A., and a cub reporter. The successful series has continued with other numerically titled installments. Then, spinning off a set of characters from a previous novel (1998's When the Wind Blows), in 2005 he published Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment. Featuring a "flock" of genetically engineered flying children, the novel was a huge hit, especially with teen readers, and spawned a series of vastly popular fantasy adventures.
In addition to continuing his bestselling literary franchises, Patterson has also found time to co-author thrillers with other writersincluding Peter de Jonge, Andrew Gross, Maxine Paetro, and Howard Roughanand has even ventured into romance (Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas, Sam's Letters to Jennifer) and children's literature (santaKid). Writing at an astonishing pace, this prolific author has turned himself into a one-man publishing juggernaut, fulfilling his clearly stated ambition to become "the king of the page-turners."
Patterson's Suzanne's Diary For Nicholas was inspired by a diary his wife kept that tracked the development of their toddler son.
Two of Patterson's Alex Cross mysteries (Along Came a Spider and Kiss the Girls) have been turned into films starring Morgan Freeman; in 2007, a weekly television series premiered, based on the bestselling Women's Murder Club novels.
James Patterson took a few moments to talk with us about his favorite books.
What was the book that most influenced your life?
A Hundred Years of Solitude is probably the novel that most influenced me as a young writersimply because as I read it, I realized that I could never do anything half as good. So why not try mysteries? Gabriel Garc a M ¡rquez's magical mystery tour begins with one of the most engaging lines in fiction: "Many years later, as he faced the firing squad, Colonel Aureliano Buend a was to remember that distant afternoon when his father took him to discover ice." What follows is an exhilarating recounting of a century in the imaginary Colombian town of Macondothe comedies and tragedies, joy and suffering, sublime and ridiculous. An entire town, for example, is affected with insomnia at one point in the novel. A woman literally rises to heaven while drying her laundry. And eventually, the firing squad, fires. Some have called this the great American novelonly it was written by a South American.

Chipotle-Corn Salad
This spicy fresh-corn salad, with grilled sweet Vidalia onions and tart lime juice, has been a summertime picnic staple for Grace Parisi ever since she discovered canned chipotles in adobo sauce years ago at her neighborhood Latin grocery store. Now these chipotles are available in the Latin section of big supermarkets all around the country as well.
- Total Time:
- Servings: 4 to 6
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, seeded and finely chopped
- 1 scallion, thinly sliced
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 5 ears of corn
- 1/2 medium Vidalia or Walla Walla onion, thickly sliced crosswise
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
How to make this recipe
Light a grill or preheat a grill pan. Brush the corn and onion slices with the olive oil and grill over moderately high heat until charred in spots but still slightly crisp, about 7 minutes. Let cool slightly, then cut the kernels from the cobs and coarsely chop the onion.
In a medium bowl, mix the sour cream with the lime juice, chopped chipotle chiles and sliced scallion and stir in the charred corn and onions. Season the corn salad with salt and pepper and serve immediately.
Make Ahead
The chipotle-corn salad can be refrigerated overnight. Let the salad stand for 20 minutes at room temperature before serving.

So 2's what did you do to your hair today?
I love this thread on the 4A forum and on LHCF. So I thought we should do it too!
Basically it's the place for you to indicate what you did to your hair that day--products, successes, failures, etc.
Post away!
Weeeelll, the waves have been looking a little blah since the cooler weather arrived. It always takes me a while to find my fall/winter routine since the previous year's never works (or maybe I just can't remember it, lol). So, since changing up the products hasn't been doing wonders, I decided to arrange it a little differently when I was using my Denman. I usually brush it back and away from my face, but today I brushed it sort of down and across my forehead a bit. Jury is still out since it isn't completely dry yet, but so far I'm liking it...it's kind of like having bangs without really having to have them. Just a softer look. How about you?
Nothing yet. :lol:
I am going to use my AOMM and layer over it Goddess Glaze!
And it is a success!! Yay for Goddess Glaze!!
I'll play!
I'm recovering from a protein disaster, so today I focused on moisture. Just did my normal wet scalp scrub, then a good dose of GFTN rinse-out. I just got a protein-free condish for leave-in (Suave Aloe & Waterlily), so I scrunched in a good handful of that, then a bit of gel (currently using a GF one, can't remember the name). It's air drying now, and hopefully it will have more life and shine and health back once it's dry!
Just a co-wash with Tea Tree Triple Treat, rinse out with GFTN (and a pea sized leave-in of GFTN), and some HESMU mousse. I tried the Pixie diffusing method, and it looks better than it has in a while. I think I need more hold than the mousse alone, so I'll probably add some gel tomorrow.
I can't wait for my hair to adjust to CG. I've only been doing it for a few days, so my hair is still being kind of stubborn, and I'm still figuring out what products it likes.
I am going to un-pineapple and use a refresher to hopefully get 2nd day hair. I *was* thinking about trying a protein DT but I think I'm too lazy today.
I used my extra virgin coconut oil and mixed it with a little argan oil (for giggles) as a pre-poo. Left it on for 30 some odd mins and then CJ loo-poo'd it out. I think I'm really starting to dig the CJ loo-poo. Anyway, went back to the mastey since I haven't used it in-for-evah (and I know how my hair reacts with it), and then used CJ CA LI. Pulled the old jessicurl samples back out and..... its a bust. The of my hair back is nearly flat. Why is something that is marketed as a curl enhancer not enhancing on me?? I mean, LOOC is more curl enhancing when used alone under gel! lol.
Anyway, I'm gonna go with the fact that Jessicurl is loaded with oils, and I should just stay away from them in anything but my pre-poo's.
Nothing. I woke up and it looked fine. And I didn't even wash it or wet it last night. Went to bed with it dry. Woke up and it still looked fine. :D
I used conditioner only last night. I cowashed and used rinse-out conditioner. Then, I did a modified version of super-soaker. I raked in a ton of leave-in. I brushed with a denman brush. Scrunched in some water, and scrunched in more leave in. I slept with a really wet pineapple. I love how soft it is. It's not as curly as usual, but I think it's worth it because I like having no crunch.
Nothing and I look a hot mess. BUT Sundays I spend on the couch watching football in my jammies. It's my "give your hair a break" day. I was gonna try out Boots today but decided to wait until tomorrow.
What a strange day for this thread. Did a PT, blew it strait for the first time in months and cut it myself. :drunken: Hope it don't have triangle head when I wash it and fix curly again.
For the second day in a row, I added Artec Textureline Gel (after my usual JCRR & JCCC) to soaking wet hair, plopped, and diffused. Turned out well, but I still don't like this haircut. :(
I pampered my waves today. Washed with Aveda black malva shampoo (on scalp only), used Hi-pro pac protein treatment in my hair for a few minutes, rinsed that out, and then conditioned with Aura cherry almond bark.
Dew points are high here today, so I chose Eco Styler gel to combat poofiness/frizz. I combed this through soaking wet hair, scrunched with a microfiber towel, and let it air dry.
I low pooed with Abba Aloe Vera and Watercress, rinsed with Suave Naturals Tropical Coconut. Then I put in GVP Conditioning Balm, put in Proclaim Curl Activator Gel, and Salon Care Aloe Vera Gel. Blow dried upside down, and it woooorked!
I misted with water to reactivate the Dep texture sport Gel already in it from yesterday..Smoothed in a pea size of LOOC, Finger styled, scrunched as needed, clipped the top and sat under the dryer 10 minutes. Not super curly or clumpy, but perfectly presentable.
I was excited today because I bought a new shampoo and conditioner--excited to see how my hair turns out! I washed it and am currently plopping it right now and plan on keeping it plopped until morning!:love4:
Today was a low-poo day. So I low-poo'd and CO'd with Giovanni 50/50. Put in some GVP CB and left it on for the rest of my shower and rinsed with cold water (which sucks in the fall/winter BTW...). Then I raked in AOMM and scrunched in HETT. It was an "eh" hair day. Very shiny and soft, but my hair can dry in weird patterns if the scrunching isn't perfect.
I low poo'd and conditioned with GF nutri-repair (the same as tripple something for US curlies??) I gave it a quick blow dry as I was catching a lift with my brother and it was raining outside, to cold for airdrying. Hair is soft but feels a little dry in spots. I'm over due for a protein treatment but it's at my uni house :(

text: Dee - Unregistered October 02, 2012 4:44 PM I must admit that I've had a bit of an up-and-down relationship with Raikkonen as an F1 fan. To me, he has only ever seemed to have put his heart into driving an F1 car when he thought he had a chance for a win. Basically, it seemed that he always gave up a bit too easily. But this season, I think I had to change my view. I admit that I'm surprised that he's right in the middle of the title fight, despite not winning a race yet. He not only hasn't given up, he's pushed that Renault to its limit. Kimi is not my favourite driver, but I for one would not complain if he somehow managed to take the title this season. Both he and Alonso have clearly been the stars of this season as far as I'm concerned... 39 agree 5 disagree

Live coverage of BMW at the 2013 Frankfurt International Motor Show
The Frankfurt International Motor Show is BMW's home turf when it come to auto shows and they pulled out the big guns for the 2013 show. Bring the soon to be on sale all electric BMW i3, the all new F15 X5, the F15 X5 eDrive hybrid, the F15 X5 M50d M Performance Auto and a 4 series coupe with tons of M Performance parts on it. All of those sat in the shadow of the BMW i8, which had its world premier at Frankfurt. The i8 is BMW's sustainably produced super car designed to reset super car standards.
Nothing from BMW or any other auto maker comes close to packing the combination of technology, environmentally green production techniques, advanced materials and performance that the i8 has. BMW has literally taken a concept car, and brought it to life as something you'll be able to buy in US dealers spring of 2014. Every inch of the i8 has been meticulously engineered, designed and built to produce a fly weight super car worthy of not only the emotional connection to the BMW brand but a show case for just how much of an engineering and manufacturing powerhouse BMW is. Watch the video to get more info.
We have real life photos of the i8, that isn't a concept car, it is the production car. They'll be on the streets in Europe in early 2014 and will be cruising around affluent US neighborhoods in the spring of 2014. Starting at $135,700 BMW won't be churning out too many of these. Your best bet to see one in person will be at Bimmerfest 2014 or the select dealers that choose to stock a showroom model.
Read more about the BMW i8
Not to be missed the rest of BMW's display at Frankfurt was impressive. An elevated track around the booth was used to drive BMW's around inside the display! Additional BMW brought out the latest and greatest as well as currently in production cars to round out the display. Highlights of the new cars on display include:
The BMW i3: zero-emission mobility, customary BMW driving pleasure.
The BMW i3 is the world's first premium car conceived from the ground up to provide all-electric mobility. Its electric motor develops output of 125 kW/170 hp using power supplied by a lithium-ion battery pack mounted in a low, central position in the car's underbody. Like the extraordinarily light yet extremely rigid CFRP passenger cell, the electric drive system and battery were also developed and produced by the BMW Group. The BMW i3 weighs just 1,195 kilograms (DIN kerb weight) and offers a range of 130 160 kilometres (approx. 80 100 miles) in everyday driving. This can be increased to a maximum 300 kilometres (approx. 180 miles) if the two-cylinder range extender combustion engine is specified.
The BMW i3 is based on a new kind of vehicle architecture. The LifeDrive concept underpins the car's visionary form, which is defined by a standalone design language and generous levels of space for all four seats. A signature theme of the BMW i brand is the thread of sustainability running throughout the value chain. For example, the carbon fibres for the passenger cell are manufactured at Moses Lake in the USA using hydro power alone, while the energy required for production of BMW i cars at BMW Plant Leipzig is generated 100 per cent by purpose-built wind turbines.
BMW 4 Series Coupe: the perfect balance of aesthetic appeal and dynamic capability.
Perfectly balanced proportions, a low center of gravity and powerful engines enable the BMW 4 Series Coupe to raise the bar in its segment in terms of aesthetics and dynamics. The individual identity of the two-door model underlined by the "4" in its nameplate is reflected both in its design and in its top-quality equipment features. BMW 4 Series Coupe customers can choose from one six-cylinder and two four-cylinder engines at launch, and the Sport Line, Modern Line, Luxury Line and M Sport packages are also available as alternatives to standard specification.

The new BMW X5: the quintessential Sports Activity Vehicle is more luxurious and innovative than ever.
The BMW X5 was the world's first Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) and remains the most successful to this day. The launch of the third-generation model sets a new agenda in its class in terms of driving pleasure, variability and luxury. Among the stand-out characteristics of the new BMW X5 are its enhanced sports performance and reduced fuel consumption, an eye-catching and aerodynamically optimized design, a weight saving of up to 90 kg over a comparably equipped corresponding model from the previous series and a wealth of innovations from BMW ConnectedDrive.
See the first real life pictures of the BMW F15 X5 from our test drive
BMW Concept X5 eDrive: intelligent all-wheel drive meets innovative hybrid technology.
BMW is also using the IAA 2013 to present a new way of further reducing the fuel consumption and emissions of an SAV. The BMW Concept X5 eDrive combines the familiar brand of driving pleasure provided by the intelligent all-wheel-drive system xDrive and a luxurious ambience with a plug-in hybrid drive concept that delivers familiar BMW sporting attributes, the ability to hit speeds of up to 120 km/h (75 mph) on electric power alone and average fuel consumption in the EU test cycle of 61.9 mpg. The study car's drive system comprises a four-cylinder BMW TwinPower Turbo combustion engine and a 70 kW/95 hp electric motor, likewise developed by the BMW Group.
BMW Concept Active Tourer Outdoor: clever solutions for driving pleasure and leisure activities.
Compact exterior dimensions, impressive interior space and clever solutions aimed at enhancing sports and leisure-related functionality define the character of the BMW Concept Active Tourer Outdoor. BMW is using this vehicle concept to introduce the brand's hallmark driving pleasure into a new segment. A bicycle carrier fully integrated into the interior serves the cause of optimum space utilization. And also breaking new ground is the BMW Concept Active Tourer Outdoor's plug-in hybrid drive technology.
The new BMW 5 Series: fresh impetus on the road to global success.
The BMW 5 Series, the world's best-selling car at the premium end of the executive segment, continues along its successful path with modifications to various design details, additional drive system variants and a host of innovations from BMW ConnectedDrive. The new BMW 518d available in Sedan and Touring form now marks the entry point to BMW 5 Series ownership, and the BMW 520d xDrive has been added to the line-up of all-wheel-drive models. Elsewhere, the new rear-end design of the luxurious and versatile BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo injects extra elegance into the car's lines and expands its boot capacity by 2.1 cubic feet.

Hive congestion
July 07, 2006, 01:46:03 PM »
Did an inspection. Both my upper and lower deeps seem to be very honeybound and full. I added a med super three weeks ago and only 5-10% drawn. I sprayed w/ sugar water to see if it would entice them to pick up the speed.
My question is, Should I remove a board or two of honey and add undrawn frames? I only have undrawn as this is my first year and no hives to borrow from. Other than some occassional queen cells in the middle of the frames, there appears to be no problems. I have had no stoppage in brood rearing. If they'ver superceded or swarmed, I cant tell. Eggs are hard to find, but I lack no brood and larvae. I attempted to feed two weeks ago, but they had no interest and almost none of it was used.
Additionally, I purchased pierco drone frames. How do I begin the process of utylizing this method of mite reduction?

You may want to pull a frame or two of honey out and replace with foundation.
don't feed them
Give them time, they will draw it and fill it.

Keep Brood Area Open - Drone Frames
Reply #2 on:
July 07, 2006, 07:23:16 PM »
Its a good idea to keep the brood area open between frosts.
This gives an opportunity to make more drawn foundation (which is always a premium). The problem that you will discover is that if you are using deeps in your brood area and mediums for honey supers, you can't just move the frames up another box (and that would have a great deal of different advantages). This is why a lot of beekeepers are changing over to just mediums and why a lot of new beekeepers are being told to start with all mediums as well. If you are going to pull frames of honey from the brood area, first off try to take capped frames as they will be cured honey and not just nectar (which can and will ferment over time, as does any nectar over 18% moisture). Once these frames are pulled you have a few options, you can freeze them so that you have spares if the spring is a little short, you can extract them, or crush and strain. If you extract or crush the comb, you can feed it back to the bees in the spring, but this is typically a practice that is avoided to prevent spreading disease. But not everyone owns or has space in chest freezer for frames of honey.
You mentioned that you have a frame of drone foundation. It is important to get using that as soon as possible. Drone populations have a tendancy to ramp upto fall time and that's when mite populations also start to increase since they come from mostly drone cells. A typical hive has about a 10% drone population during the honey season. If you do the math that would mean that you should add one frame for about every 9 or 10 frames of brood. It sounds like you meet that criteria. What most people want is the worker brood in the center of the brood nest. So with this, it would be advisable to put the drone frame next to the outside wall or outside the last significant frame of brood.
Now you're going to ask, how do I know what a significant frame of brood is? Well the brood area of a frame dimishes closer to winter and increases spring to summer. You are going to have to pull the frames and inspect them to see where and how much brood is being laid on each frame. From this you can determine where your drone frame should be located. You want it close enough to the brood area that the queen will remain warm enough to be comfortable to travel to the drone frame to lay, but outside the brood nest enough that it doesn't intrude upon worker brood area.
To start with you may need to introduce the frame more central until it becomes drawn out, but after that the aboves applies. Hopefully you understand that the frame needs to be uncapped (drones killed) several days before they are expected to hatch (or anytime you see them capped) . From those that use them, its been suggested to keep several spare uncapped so that you can just swap and go and not horse around with opening, running to garage or honey house, uncapping and opening the hive again.
There is nothing new under the sun. Only your perspective changes to see it anew.

The frames of honey are all capped, and my brood area appears to be extensive. I have at least four full frames of brood in the upper(both sides), and another four frames of brood in the lower(both sides). Additionally, I have the three biggest frames of capped honey in the lower at least 3-4 inches thick. All honey frames are the outside frames, and all brood are in the middle where they belong. Shaped like a suspended football between the upper and lower boxes. I appear to have huge amounts of bees, and lots of pollen and honey. The honey frames are gorgeous. All capped and new drawn foundation. Almost see through. Perhaps I'm not being patient enough? They drew out the deep box in ten days. The medium is going on three weeks. Obviously, there is plenty of nectar as evidenced by all the capped honey. I have no extractor for this year. I was hoping to avoid crush and strain as I want next years bees to be "ahead of the game." I really appreciate the feedback. The nuansces (sp?)of this hobby are both vexing and fascinating too. I am in the flow according to local beeks and want to maximize my opportunities for the girls.
Thanx again gang.

Here is an instruction sheet from Betterbee on the Pierco Drone Frames:
I just started this year, but here is the way I am using them:
I am using 2 standard 10 frame deeps for the brood area for each hive. I have 2 drone frames per hives. One is always in the hive, usually about the 3rd frame from one side in the top deep. (I figured that they should go just inside the last frame that is completely honey/pollen.) So far I have been putting them in the upper deep just for ease of checking them.
When I inspect, typically about every 10 days or so, if the drone frame has a significant number of capped cells I swap it out with the other one. The one that is not in the hive is put in the freezer after I steal, er, um,
, a bit of honey from the top of the frame. Last time I got to see a drone chew his way out while I was letting the honey drip into a baking sheet... Great homeschooling stuff. :) I move them from the freezer to the fridge the night before I inspect so they are not so cold when I put them back in the hive.
Since I am using one frame hive, I guess I am running only about 5% (1/20) rather than 10%. Actually now that I think about it, once you account for the honey frames in the brood boxes, one drone frame is more like 1/12. In both of my hives the bees filled the drone frames with nectar right after they drew them out for the first time, but on the next inspection they were mostly larva and capped brood. Depending on your brood nest you may be better off in the 4th position.
