....but look what I just picked up!
I know, I know, the .32 isn't enough and my edc is a Kahr K9, but I'm gonna carry it when I can't carry a gun.......and the Seecamp is an absolutely beautiful little gem.
Ain't she just the cutest little thang.......?!
Ok, flame away, I can take it!
J/K, I couldn't resist.
ps. Nice little gun.
Idiot. Just make sure you carry it. Everyday. I mean it.
"......when I can't carry a gun."
Personally, if I couldn't carry a gun, that 'lil beaut' would work perfectly!
it is cute..
and although it is a puny .32, it beats throwing rocks or cellphones..
its a great hat gun...

If you're going to buy a pea shooter - might as well get one of the best. Super high quality.
Very Nice Little Gun.
Oh...almost forgot. Idiot.

You bought a nice gun
A real man loves his wife, and places his family as the most important thing in life. Nothing has brought me more peace and content in life than simply being a good husband and father.
It is small and it is Nice. I use a KelTec P3AT; I believe there's a lot of good reason for a true pocket pistol and a K9 is NOT a pocket pistol. The way I look at it, it's like carrying a pocket knife plus...
Carry it, forget it, and enjoy it!
I'll bite: is it a cigarette lighter??
Not a lot between the 32 and 380 out of such a short barrel. You will quickly grow very fond of that pocket gun. They are so easy to carry and conceal it should always be with you. I have two of the Guardians one in 32 and one in 380 and one of them is always with me as well as a larger primary 90% of the time. I use the Fiocchi FMJ ammo in mine. I have found the Nemisis holster works excellent. Enjoy your new mouse gun. It's far better than this mouse gun!!
When Seconds Count, The Cops Are Just Minutes Away!!
Carry On!
Im gonna call you an idiot...for not buying one for the rest of us!
Just kidding, nice lil shooter.
Does it fit on your key ring? Just kidding. I'm actually jealous. It's a nice gun.
"You gonna do something about it or just stand there and bleed?" -Wyatt Earp
So you're an idiot, because you want to carry a micro gun when you can't carry a real gun, or as a backup to your real gun. That would make me an idiot too, I guess.
Nice little mouse gun, that. Enjoy it :)
Liberty is an inherently offensive lifestyle. Living in a free society guarantees that each one of us will see our most cherished principles and beliefs questioned and in some cases mocked. It's worth it.
Nice pocket BUG.

Readmission to the Undergraduate Nursing Program
General Readmission Requirements
The CONHS Admission, Progression and Retention Committee will determine if a student will be readmitted to the nursing program. Students may be readmitted to the nursing program no more than one time. Clinical orientation, auditing of nursing courses or retaking of nursing courses may be required in the readmission process. Students who are readmitted to the nursing program are subject to the degree and graduation requirements in the AU catalog and nursing student handbook at the time of readmission. However, if a student continues to take classes at AU while not enrolled in the nursing program, they will be subject to the core requirements of their original AU catalog and nursing course requirements and policies in the AU catalog and student handbook at the time of readmission to the nursing program.
Readmission Process:

Readmission Criteria:
The following will be used in making a readmission decision:
- Applicant's stated reason for requesting readmission
- Past academic performance and any work completed while absent is evaluated to determine potential for success and/or placement
- Demonstration of skills learned in courses completed prior to the student's leaving the program. This may include passage of a drug calculation exam and demonstration of clinical skills, as deemed appropriate. Successful completion of these requirements must occur prior to the student's readmission.
- Whether or not the applicant will be able to complete the program within the six-year requirement
- Space availability in the appropriate courses
Readmission Progression Requirements:
- The admission decision applies to the upcoming semester and cannot be deferred.
- Applicants must repeat or audit course (even if passed) when the CONHS deems necessary.

With Christmas approaching faster than another Labour Party leadership challenge, I would like to take this opportunity to thank my devoted readers, some of whom I know, many I don't, for reading my little blog, and thank you for your comments.
I am always very appreciative of any comments, good or bad.
I want to thank Kapi-Mana News, and in particular my editor (I love saying that, it makes me feel like a real writer), Matt, for taking a punt and allowing me to put into words, my thoughts and ideas into their publication.
This is also a good opportunity for me to thank all my lovely friends out there for being just that, lovely, lovely friends. One friend told me once, "only surround yourself with those people who love, admire, and respect you. The rest just simply drain you and drag you down, life's too short to be in a bad mood every day". And I thank her for that advice.
I have followed it and my life is pretty good, most of the time. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to each and every one of you, you know who you are, and thanks for being in my life.
I want to thank my family for being the gorgeous family they are, warts 'n all. I want them to know I love and appreciate them and I am looking forward to spending time with them over the holidays.
Christmas means different things for different people. or me it's about taking some time to renew my energy for the upcoming year. It's about having time to hang with my family. It's about the turkey, the tree, the carols, the tinsel, the bubbly and, of course, Santa. And somewhere, deep down inside there is a bit of guilt about not going to midnight mass any more, but that doesn't last long. I am there in spirit (if it's good enough for the big man upstairs...just sayin').
Christmas breakfast and lunch are major events in our home. Because the various family members have other family obligations, we have to try and work out how they can see everyone on the day.
Colin's youngest brother and wife live nearby so we will try and catch up with them also and have a drink or two. They always have heaps of family people at theirs as well so it will be fun. Colin's daughter and family will be spending the day with us which is fantastic.
Number two son and girlfriend will spend Christmas Eve with her family but will be with us early Christmas morning so that's good Number one son of course is in Australia with his lovely partner but I am sure we will Skype at some stage during the day and catch up.
Food. I love ham. Love, love, love it. I love it baked in the oven for a couple of hours slowly whilst basting it with a marinade made with mustard, pineapple juice, marmalade etc. Hot ham with new potatoes slathered in butter, real butter, not imitation or margerine.
Christmas is not the time to worry about waistlines. For one day, just give in to it and eat butter and cream, and meat and puddings and whatever else you fancy. Oooh, and juicy turkey with gravy...mmmm. It's one day a year...run it off the next day if you must, but just give yourself one day to enjoy food without feeling guilty.
And bubbly, Christmas morning with a glass of Veuve Clicquot (thank you Jen and John), and strawberries, oh yeah...and Mariah Carey singing "All I want for Christmas is yooooou, oooh baby". The tree all sparkly and the lights twinkling and then we get to open pressies. We don't do big expensive gifts, I try to be thoughtful about what I buy but mostly it's just about the excitement of something under the tree with your name on it.
If Colin and I are on our own for breakfast, which is looking likely (wow, first time in 28 years) we will be having crayfish, scallops and whitebait with Veuve Clicquot, fresh strawberries and maybe a warm croissant with ham and cheese, and then later in the day, a more traditional lunch/dinner with ham, turkey, some roasted spuds and new baby ones and all the usual trimmings.
My family and I (God, I sound like the Queen giving her Christmas message) hope that you spend your Christmas surrounded by your family and friends and love and friendship. We hope that whatever it means to you and yours, it's a day of fun and laughter.
We hope that you give and receive graciously, no matter how ugly the gift (come on, we all know that happens). We hope that if your children or grandchildren wake you early, be patient with them - you've spend the last month telling them that Santa is coming, let them have an early start. I think 4.58am was the earliest number two son ever woke us; I have to admit to giving him his Christmas stocking and asking him to give mummy and daddy another half an hour, which he did. Thank-you son.
So, however you spend it and with whomever, I wish you a very Merry Christmas and here's to a bright and prosperous New Year. I hope all your dreams and wishes come true and if they don't? There's always next year - spoken like a true Hurricanes/Lions supporter!
Merry Christmas everyone.

Detailed Accident Report
Submitted By: Glacier Country Avalanche Center
Place: Mountians North of Whitefish Lake
State: MT
Country: USA
Fatalities: 1
Summary: 1 snowmobiler, caught, buried, and killed wearing a transceiver
Please visit: www.glacieravalanche.org
OFFICIAL REPORT will be posted when available.
INITIAL REPORT from GCAC - 02/13/02
Upper Whitefish Lake, Whitefish Range
10 Feb 2002 - On Sunday, 2-10-02, a party of 4 snowmobilers were recreating north of Upper Whitefish Lake in the Whitefish Range. They had been working ridges and bowls most of the day prior to dropping into a bowl south of the Flathead-Lincoln county line and just on State of Montana land.
One rider was moving to the ridge on a recently wind loaded slope while a second was stopped near the base. The other two were outside the runout. Once the slide release the climbing machine was able to power on up and off the slide to the ridge. The stopped rider below was hit and pushed further down and across the bowl.
All riders were carrying transceivers, probes, and shovels. A transceiver search relatively quickly located the buried person beneath his buried snowmobile. Heavy compacted snow slowed digging progress along with the obstacle of the machine. When uncovered from approx. 5 ft of snow, CPR was administered to the victim without success.
The avalanche encompassed the south to east facing portion of the fairly large bowl. The east facing section was significantly loaded with recently wind-transported snow. The fracture line here was the deepest at about 3.5 ft. The south facing snowpack was more commonly wind scoured and shallow, the fracture depth there was 1-2 ft. It appears that the first rider was climbing transitional snow near the middle of these two different conditions.
The avalanche released upon a lower melt-freeze ice layer with a thin layer of weakly bonded snow above. Melt-freeze ice layers above the failing layer had been weakened by cold nighttime temperatures over the last couple of months. Recent snowfalls and wind events had loaded the weak layer nearly to the point of failure. A snowmachine and rider was all that was needed to trip the trigger. Unfortunately the second rider awaited below.

Avalanche victim identified
By Jim Mann
The Daily Inter Lake
The snowmobiler killed in a massive avalanche north of Upper Whitefish
Lake Sunday has been identified as Joseph Anthony Garrisi of Kalispell.
His body was recovered by a helicopter and Flathead County Search and
Rescue volunteers early Monday morning, said Flathead County
Undersheriff Chuck Curry, who was the coroner on the call.
Garrisi, 39, had been snowmobiling with three other people in an alpine
basin just above the east fork of Swift Creek. The group had been
climbing the bowl to a ridge top, Curry said.
One of the snowmobilers triggered the avalanche near the ridge top at
about 3:30 p.m., as Garrisi was climbing up the basin and the other two
snowmobilers were near the bottom.
"The fracture line on the slide is probably 500 yards long," Curry said. "It
was a huge slide. It was kind of the whole basin that went."
The avalanche traveled only 100 yards, however.
Curry said all of the snowmobilers were equipped with radio
transceivers, shovels and other emergency avalanche equipment.
"They were able to locate him, utilizing the transceivers," Curry said.
"They were certainly well-equipped. They did dig him out and initiate CPR
and they continued that for as long as they could."
But it took roughly 30-45 minutes to get to Garrisi, who was buried under
at least five feet of snow, Curry said.
Eventually, the three snowmobilers left Garrisi's body behind, driving out
of the area and calling the sheriff's office at around 6:45 p.m.
Curry said the terrain was too rough to attempt to recover the body on a
snowmobile, so a helicopter was used.
The Glacier Country Avalanche Center, in its advisory issued last Friday,
rated the avalanche danger as moderate on steep, open slopes. But it
said that rating would be increased to "considerable" during the
weekend, if there were heavy snow Friday night, which there was
through much of northwest Montana.
02/12/2002 Tuesday
Man killed in avalanche
A Flathead Valley man died in an avalanche Sunday at the north end of
Whitefish Lake.
His name and age were not immediately released.
A group of four people on snowmobiles were northwest of Upper
Whitefish Lake on Sunday when the avalanche occurred, said
Undersheriff Chuck Curry.
"They were in a large bowl. The slide was triggered by one of the
snowcats," Curry said.
One of the men and his machine were buried in 5 to 6 feet of snow, he
said. The group was well equipped and the man's companions were able
to dig him out, but were unable to revive him, Curry said.
Officials were unable to retrieve the man's body Sunday night. The
accident occurred in "a very high, very technical" part of the valley and
rescuers were unwilling to take risks in the dark.
Sheriff's deputies, Flathead Search and Rescue, and possibly a
helicopter, will be used in the recovery this morning, weather permitting,
Curry said.

"Salvage and recycling efforts on the Green & Main site will divert 322 tons of recyclable construction and demolition debris from the landfill," says Jim Bodensteiner, who oversees the DNR's Solid Waste Alternatives Program (SWAP).
With a holistic approach to sustainability, Halfhill is aiming for the highest green renovation certification available: a Platinum rating from Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED).
À la Carte Renovation
An original cost projection of $2.2 million has grown to $2.35 million, a price tag out of reach for most small-town builders and developers.
"Costs can be a major roadblock," says Sam Erickson, who as Vice President of Community Housing Initiatives (a statewide nonprofit) gets a half-dozen calls a week from communities interested in renovating buildings like Green & Main.
"It's more expensive and it's more trouble, but someone has to be first to take a chance and have a vision."
by the rules
Historic preservation dictated several design decisions.
The 1,100-square-foot addition with large south-facing windows to draw light and heat matches the original architecture in materials, scale, and proportion but is built to the rear of the structure so it does not detract from the historical character of the facade.
Similarly, the green roof was designed so plants cannot be seen from the street.
Windows presented one of the biggest challenges. Existing single-pane double-hungs did not meet the insulation value necessary for the project's energy efficiency goals, but they could not be replaced because of the historic value they contribute to the building's character.
Considering these seemingly conflicting goals, it was decided to treat them as storm windows and add a second, energy-efficient, operable window behind them on the interior.
These efforts, along with the restoration of the original brick and the addition of awnings, will complete the historic look of the facade.

Restaurant Tasting Menu Includes Cell Phone Charger Course
Jose Garces restaurant Volver is offering patrons a chance to charge their smart phones during their meals
Gourmet restaurants are always trying to push the limit of fine dining to its extremes, like pairing sushi with marajuana or letting customers pay with Instagram pictures. As with any fine art, the introduction of other technologies is integral to creating a new and one of a kind experience, with customers even bringing their camera phones to document a meal. Iron Chef Jose Garces is keeping his customers both well fed and well powered by introducing a cell phone charger as part of his four course meal.
At his Philadelphia restaurant Volver, Garces brings out a charger so that customers can keep their phones ready to take pictures, which has become as much a part of the dining experience as eating the meal itself. The waiter brings out a portable charger and battery on a silver platter to make sure that the diner has enough power to keep taking photos of the elegantly created culinary dishes.
Philadelphia Inquirer's Craig LaBan wrote a review of the restaurant, and while he used the charger that was provided for him, he says he isn't sure that encouraging people to take lots of photos at the dinner table:
There have been chefs who banned cell phone pictures from the room because they feel it's an intrusion, especially when people use flashes. I totally understand that, but this is the opposite direction. I definitely think this was a restaurant that wanted to embrace the promotional opportunities of social media. Here you have hundreds of people coming through your restaurant promoting you for what you used to pay marketing agencies for.
While it's true these photos act as free publicity, people taking excessive photos of their food (or the food of people sitting with them) can be a distraction and disturb other diners in the area. Still, it probably won't stop people from putting their meals on Instagram to show off to their followers. After all, meals like those presented at Chef Garces's restaurant are not luxuries everyone can afford, so what's the harm in having others at least admire the exquisite food they may never have a chance to eat?

Cuviers dwarf caiman care sheet
Dwarf Caiman, Cuviers Caiman, Smooth Fronted Caiman, Musky Caiman.
Firstly a crocodilian may not be the first animal you think of to keep in your home, word of that can have a downside as most people remember watching crocodiles pulling huge animals into water and eating them as well as watching television programs where documentaries contain stories of man killers.
Think twice about this, these animals are not pets, will always remain a dangerous wild animal that can inflict serious injury or harm.
Another reason they are not a pet is because they don't do much, they do what they do best, sit around, shy away and threaten. They are not very active during the day yet become more active at night. They're not sociable.
Baby caiman do look fantastic but do not buy a caiman if you do not plan out their lifetime enclosure! A caiman is not just until 2ft, it's for life may it be 4-5ft plus!
Too many caiman get neglected, difficulty rehoming or otherwise disposed of and in a way the initial buyer is responsible for the healthy life long care and even to the animals death even to the amateur inexperience keeper that does not research.
CITES Appendix ll (low risk or least concern)
Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Paraguay, Peru, Surinam, Venezuela. Slightly larger distribution than that of the sympatric Paleosuchus trigonatus, extending into Paraguay and further into Brazil.
Found mainly in fast flowing freshwater rivers of the amazon, orinoco and some in paraguay and flooded forests, they are known for the use of burrows for daytime dwelling, more active during the night and can travel long distances on land, sub adults can also be found in small pools/lakes that have been temporarily separate to the main clean water rivers.
They are the smallest species of crocodilian reaching sizes of five foot for males and four foot for females, heavily armored on their back and tail area, this makes up for it's small size and protects against injury in fast water bumps and knocks about as well as conflict with other caiman or predators, being one of the most recognizable caiman it's head is a brown color, short and smooth and concave with an upturned snout and overlapping upper jaw. Juveniles are more vivid in pattern and color, being lighter in color than adults and a banded appearance on the body and tail.
Hatchlings can be housed in 100-200 liter aquariums or larger, if you're going to get a larger aquarium make sure you have more than enough places for them to hide and cover behind plants, I started with two hatchlings in a 550 liter aquarium and had divided it in two with plexi glass to create half land and half water with a turtle dock to climb onto the land easily, make sure you have plenty of plants on the back wall and even some plastic floating ones like duckweed do well. I personally used the reptile exo-terra range of plants and stuck them on the aquarium walls and they gave cover for both the caiman, plenty of plants makes hiding spaces, hiding spaces mean your new caiman will settle in with a bit more ease than being exposed in the open, they are easy to get stressed so try not to bother them unless it's absolutely needed( eg. quick health check or full water change or prolonged intrusive tank maintenance), they can be moved to a storage tub covered by a towel in a warm area to reduce stress. They will make use of cork bark tubes on land as a hide during the day.
You may choose to use gravel for an aquarium substrate, sand would not be good because things get kicked up a lot from time to time and it would get stuck in your filter. When you choose a water filter choose one that is capable of more than just the amount that it will be filtering, you will need it. I personally used large gravel but have now a bare aquarium to do more cleaning in a short space of time, this also allows you to see uneaten food so you can scoop it out.
Now for lighting,
A lot of debate goes on about uva and uvb, now as you can imagine, they spend most of the day in the wild in a burrow, in hiding or with their head floating on the surface under trees/logs and over grown green plants, so they do get some sunlight, not a lot but some and can even be found basking at river banks, for this reason I recommend a low to mid percentage uvb like reptisun/reptiglo 2.0 - 5.0(2%-5%), you want to replicate the natural daylight cycle as close as possible. 9 am - 8 pm works well on the timer for the uvb, I recommend the basking start the same time but stay on until 10 pm as they will use this basking spot more in the evening, it can even be left on 24 hrs if you are getting the right temperatures constant, for heating and basking I recommend using infrared night time spot bulbs this way when on 24 hrs it will not disturb their natural night time activity and also allows you to see them without intrusive lighting, you will want to judge what wattage to use for you size aquarium, for basking, aim for temperatures of 33 - 34 celsius, and an ambient of 30 celsius with a cooler area of 26 celsius, this should be ideal for your caiman and I am happy with how mine are doing at those temperatures, they have the full range of thermoregulation, just make sure if you don't divide your aquarium in half use 2 - 3 turtle docks one each end of the tank or better yet cut some large thick reptile cork bark to fit tightly from the back of the tank to the front to create a wooden platform, it will stain the water for a few weeks but it won't be harmful, just keep a close eye for any mould, and of course submerge the in water too with the middle part or other out of water.
For adults you're going to be looking at 6 ft x 8 ft land and 8 ft x 10 ft x 3 ft water. Any room for a sofa or bed when that goes in? Because when you buy these guys you're also buying their adult home! Because it won't be long before they grow out of their aquarium.
They are quite the opportunistic feeders in the wild and that seems the same in captivity, you'll notice that your new caiman is aware of when feeding time is, what days and or what they favor, but most of all they will recognize that food dish coming closer to the tank. If you do not use a dish placed on land make sure you use reasonably sized tongs/tweezers to save some nipped fingers if they're leaping out of the water in anticipation.
Babies are famous for not feeding, that's why it's very important to have your tank well covered with plants, and temperatures right, you may even find that by warming the water to 30 celsius will bring an appetite back, if they are not feeding, the food dish may be the best bet, and leave the room altogether, cuviers are very shy and may/will not eat in front of people.
On having your caiman brought home initially you want a vet to check for parasites or any illness/injury. Live crickets in the water will also trigger a feeding response, if your caiman still refuses to eat, leave the food item on land and leave the room until morning and whatever you do don't harass the little thing with the food, it will then associate food with a bad/stressful feeling and will make matters worse, that's another reason to have 2, one will stimulate the other to eat, but be careful if one gets bigger than the other or the smaller one may become dinner too. If they still refuse to eat contact a vet that deals with and specialized in crocodilians.
It is said that this species feeds better in pairs or groups, seeing that I own a pair myself I cannot compare to the ones housed individually.
In the wild what do they eat? They eat bugs, fish, amphibians, lizards, birds, small animals and parts scavenged from the larger animals being fed off by neighbouring caiman, piranha and what not. You are going to want to vary the food types a good bit to ensure the right diet, their main source should not be fish.
For the hatchling caiman gutloaded crickets and small locust hoppers lightly dusted with calcium/vitamins, make sure to add vit b1 that I mentioned earlier(thiamin), dust lighly every feed to every second feed.
Also I found it great that by cutting up rat pups into small easy to swallow pieces with a scissors placed on a reptile dish on your land area I found they will hone in on the smell and eat from the dish, make sure to add calcium/vits. This technique will create a more relaxed stress free feeding behavior and will tend to those caiman who are shy. For the shy ones, you'll want to limit or restict all human movement/traffic in the room. And make sure to vary those meat types! Other types that can be used are chicken breast/offal(preferably free range/organic), quail meat, beef heart, tongue, skinned day old chicks chopped up, defrost rat weaner parts, minimum fur but don't exclude it completely, liver and kidney pieces from cow/sheep. Avoid pork for the obvious tapeworm that resides in the animal, think red meat more so than white meat as it is more nutritionally adequate. Mixing the food around on the dish every second day or so you may find no longer the need for insects as food. Of course watch how much they eat or check the dish next morning to determine how much they eat and take note! Little and often helps their metabolism more so than one big meal every half week or more. And as they get bigger you can cut meat pieces to larger sizes and even start them on small whole items like mice pinks, crawlers, rat pups and so on. Make it easy to swallow, you don't want any uneaten rotting meat contaminating your water by floating around and/or getting lodged somewhere you can't see, this also applies to feeder insects that have been dusted/or just plain floating dead in a corner.
Adults can be fed once, twice, three times a week depending on how big or small of a meal they get. And take note, the higher your water temperature and overall temperatures the quicker food gets digested, the lower it is they might not eat at all.
In my personal experience myself on fish biochemistry of some species, avoid goldfish and minnows completely!
Why? Firstly, Somatostatin, this is a growth inhibiting hormone in these fish, secondly, bombesin suppresses appetite and thirdly thiaminaise content needs to be taken into account, that's another thing in these fish that breaks thiamin (vitB1)apart, and thiamin is needed for the proper survival of crocodilians, any frozen food will have a lack of thiamin, by the freezing process of food, remember, freezing any item of living tissue breaks down the cell walls completely, and thiamin will be completely lacking. It helps to warm defrost food to 30 degrees celsius.
I know for sure trout and guppies are the most ideal feeder fish/meat, they contain little to no thiaminaise.
It makes no harm to lace the water with a little thiamin, I have been using tetrafauna reptosol for the thiamin part of care.
With the correct diet fish should only serve as a snack between feeds.
You will find them very shy as youngsters, secretive and will be quick to dive in to water out of sight, They recognize the person feeding them, mine can tell me apart from someone else by staying put when I enter the room but dive into water when my other half goes in. I have also noticed that they never call out when they have been fed and even the day after but will call out the third day, and that means to me that they're hungry, so when I enter the room they advance to the front of the tank a bit.
It's very important to realize that anything that is on top of the tank or in the tank is fair game for food so mind your hands!
Tank maintenance should only ever be carried out during the day, I personally give the tank a quick glance for poops in water that need removing and water changes are very important, full water changes. I do a full water change every 3 - 4 weeks and that's 225 liters, when removing them, that's the dodgy part, mind them fingers! They will try to swim away, bite so make sure to grab lightly but firmly quickly behind the head and support the body/tail(depending on size) with the other hand as soon as you can to avoid unwanted trashing about. Once picked up they calm down a bit, reasonably anyway and tolerate the handling, this gives me a bit of time to examine them for mould, fungus, cuts, injury, mouth check and eye check.
I do not personally recommend handling cuviers dwarf caiman for any purpose other than to remove them from intrusive prolonged tank maintenance or to examine them if something appears wrong.
While waiting for me to finish doing things with their home they wait in a large tub with a covering towel, to pick them back up to pop them back in their home, I towel them first.
(Because I have not bred my cuvier's yet I'm taking this breeding information from another source)
This species is reported to nest during the dry season, during the wet season, or all year round, depending on the locality. More specifically, studies show P. palpebrosus prefer to nest at the end of the dry season and the beginning of the rainy season in areas with warm climates. When ready to start nesting, the females stop feeding and begin the mating process. The females can lay around 10-25 eggs. Both female and male P. palpebrosus build nests for their eggs. These nests are made of soil, usually mud, blended with fresh and rotten leaves, small branches, and other vegetation. Like other caimans, this species is a mound-nester where the females lay their eggs and bury them underneath the mound. These nests are generally small in diameter and height. These eggs are white, long, and weigh anywhere from 61-70 grams. The eggs hatch after 90 days. The female opens the nest in response to vocalizations of the young from within the nests. After the young hatch from their eggs, they continue to stay beneath the debris of the nest for several days, staying away from the water. It is said that the adults open the nest and direct their young toward the water, but studies do show the lack of parental care. The general behavior of adult males are to leave once after the female lays her eggs. Males do not regularly stay near the females during the hatching or post-hatching period. Sexual maturity is dependent on size, and relates to age as it correlates with growth. When a male reaches a size of 1.1 meters, it has become sexually mature and the females are ready to breed when they are about 1 meter in length. For P. palpebrosus to become completely sexually mature, it could take more than 10 years.
The degree of parental care after hatching varies with local conditions. The nest is made by both parents. Studies show that the females remain with the hatchling group for only a few weeks before the hatchlings disperse. Then, the young are left alone and the mother leaves. The female rarely returns to her nesting site to search for her young, but can recognize them by smell. The nesting period is very dangerous for the young. Many predators lurk around nests to snatch eggs for food. In response, the female and male parents become defensive and take whatever action is necessary to guard their eggs. The female is always alert and remains near the nest during this period and will react to the slightest movement. Males do not regularly stay near the female during the hatching or post-hatching period. Furthermore, captive caimans are much more aggressive during their nesting period. The female can become very hostile and charge from the water at any sudden movement near the nest. She remains by the eggs for long periods, even without an apparent threat. Other defensive behaviors are tail slapping and splashing water by snapping their jaws. Sometimes, P. palpebrosus hatchlings are found alone or in pairs without any parental protection at all.
I hope this care sheet is as informative as my memory allows, I am sure at some point I will have much more to add as I continue my studies over the years.
I have posted this on behalf of pm's about info on the care for keeping this species and compiled as much of my own experience and knowledge with the written care already found online.

Nice caresheet
You really will find the female super aggressive during nesting, she progresses to new heights of rage over the weeks (The closer the eggs would be to hatching the more rabid she gets). Allowing the male to remain with her actually makes her slightly more chilled out, there are reports that they actually congregate in groups of 5-6 etc, when one female nests the whole group may infact nest and defend the area. A lone female is more likely to be defensive to the extreme.
I have actually found this to be the most animated behaviour you'll pobably ever see from your caiman! It's incredibly endearing to see her so determined and the pair are as close to "affectionate" as you'll see during this time
Nice snap of the cuvier. Is this one of the adults from Jersey? Contacted Matt G a few weeks, so should hopefully have a couple comming from you when they hatch!!

'The Moral High Ground': Washington Same-Sex Marriage Bill Signed into Law by Governor Chris Gregoire
Washington state Governor Chris Gregoire signed a bill legalizing same-sex marriage today, making the Evergreen State the seventh in the union to grant gays and lesbians marriage equality. Despite the victory, opponents of the measure have vowed to defeat it at the ballot box this November.
The Associated Press reports that Gov. Gregoire, a Democrat, signed the bill in a packed Capitol flanked by LGBT advocates and at least 40 lawmakers from the House and the Senate.
"I'm proud our same-sex couples will no longer be treated as separate but equal," she declared.
But same-sex couples won't actually be able to marry until the law goes into effect on June 7. Opponents of marriage equality say they are preparing for an epic fight to defeat the measure. If they collect enough signatures, they can force a referendum on the matter on this November's ballot. A separate initiative was filed that could also potentially lead to the overturning of the bill, SB 6239.
For now, there is jubilation among Washington's LGBT community and supporters of equality.
Sen. Ed Murray (D-Seattle), who is gay and has sponsored marriage equality measures for years, told the cheering crowd at the Capitol: "My friends, welcome to the other side of the rainbow. No matter what the future holds, nothing will take this moment in history away from us."
The haters were also present, although in much smaller numbers. Bob Struble, a 68-year-old from Bremerton, shouted "Do not betray Christ!" as Gov. Christie signed the bill into law. He was removed from the room and warned by security.
"We'll be doing everything we can to overturn this unfortunate law," he told the AP.
Audrey Daye of Olympia cried as she watched the governor sign the bill. Daye, who grew up with two moms, brought her seven-year-old son with her to witness history.
"I am so proud that our state is on the right side of history," she told the AP.
GOP presidential hopeful Rick Santorum, a staunch opponent of marriage equality and gay rights, just happened to be in town today as Washington became the seventh state to legalize marriage equality. The other six are: New York, Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont as well as Washington, DC and the Squamish and Coquille Native American tribes.
New Jersey's state senate today approved a bill that would legalize same-sex marriage, but that state's Republican governor, Chris Christie, has vowed to veto the measure.
Maryland and Maine have also taken steps toward marriage equality.

Fresno State's Pinegar to sit out season opener
FRESNO, Calif. -- Fresno State starting quarterback Paul Pinegar will likely not play in Saturday's season opener at No. 12 Tennessee because of a pectoral injury.
Bulldogs coach Pat Hill moved Jeff Grady to the starting spot.
Redshirt freshman Tommy Barrington will be the No. 2 quarterback Saturday, although Pinegar will dress for the game, Hill said.
"Paul's got a slight muscle tear in his pec, and it just hasn't healed," Hill said. "He'll make the trip [to Tennessee], but it's doubtful he'll play."
Pinegar said he first felt pain just below his right shoulder during an Aug. 14 practice. Since then, he has participated only in handoff, footwork and short-passing drills. An MRI revealed the muscle tear.
"That's when we knew I needed to take some time off," said Pinegar, who isn't sure how the injury occurred.
It is unclear how long Pinegar will be sidelined.
"It could be next week, it could be three weeks, it could be six weeks, I have no idea," Hill said. "Right now, Jeff's taken over the team until Paul gets healthy."
Grady, a fifth-year senior, began last season as the starter before sustaining two hip injuries and losing his job to Pinegar. Pinegar went on to start 12 games and earn Western Athletic Conference freshman of the year honors.
Hill said the offense wouldn't change with Grady at quarterback. In 12 career games, the 6-foot-2, 210-pounder has completed 47 of 101 attempts for 635 yards, six touchdowns and three interceptions.
"We'll be the same football team with Jeff from an offensive standpoint as we are with Paul," Hill said. "Jeff was our starter last year, and I think he's as good as a starter can be. The team will rally around him."

North Carolina New House Bill to Prohibit Baring Women Breasts
North Carolina has introduced a new bill clarifying that State Law prohibits women baring their breasts (So I guess they're closing down all the strip clubs). Informing that they can use pasties or duct tape (well, that fixes everything … get it?).
House Bill 34 will make it a Class H Felony for the exposure of external organs of sex of excretion including the nipple or any portion of the areola of the human breast.
Rep. Rayne Brown who co-sponsored the bill says:
"there are communities across this state, there's local governments across this state, and also local law enforcement for whom this issue is really not a laughing matter."
She also states that what prompted the bill in part was Asheville's 2nd Annual Topless Protest & Women's Rally. (Mind you, Asheville is approximately 130 miles from where Brown is AND they drew a total of a dozen women to bare their breasts to promote womens equality. That's a lot of people, glad they're setting this bill up now before it gets out of control.)
Now, I've been to Raleigh, NC and its a super small town and I didn't see them having a duct tape shortage.
Depending on the amount of exposure, women could face up to 6 months in prison for an errant areola, so ladies make sure that duct tape is really on there. Now, this does not include breastfeeding … hmm … I already see a way out of this one, so guys don't even think about it.
As for Rep. Tim Moore, he says:
"You know what they say … duct tape fixes everything."

'Frozen' Director Urges Grads To End Self-doubt
The screenwriter and director of the Disney film "Frozen" encouraged University of New Hampshire graduates to do away with self-doubt during a commencement speech on Saturday. Lee graduated from UNH in 1992. She told the graduates: "When you are free from self-doubt, you fail better. You accept criticism and listen." Lee was the first woman to direct an animated feature film for Walt Disney Animation Studios. This year, she took home an Oscar for best animated feature.

text: I have heard of the VA rating on service connected disabilities. But in another thread I read that someone was rated for non-service connected disabilities. I thought the VA either just approved or denied service connection. Is there any benefit to being rated as non-service connected? Or is this just another way of saying denied service connection by the VA? I did not wish to hijack the other thread, so I'm asking here.

Thank you for your interest in The University of Western Ontario. As Chair of the Department of Geography, I am lucky to be constantly surrounded by such a talented and friendly group of faculty, staff, graduate and undergraduate students, post-doctoral researchers, and visitors. If you are a prospective graduate or undergraduate student who wants to learn and have fun in the process, Western might be a great choice for you. All of our faculty are dedicated scholars, many of whom are world-renowned researchers and others who are acknowledged as excellent teachers.
Our programs educate undergraduates and graduate students to use geographic concepts and skills to understand and solve real-world problems. Although our Department is situated within the Faculty of Social Science, our programs cover four primary areas: urban studies, physical geography, environment, health and development and geographic information science. The study of Geography contributes to the achievement of a better world and is one of the most interesting and exciting disciplines that can be studied at university.
We are becoming increasingly aware that events in other parts of the world have ramifications for you and me. At the same time, we depend increasingly on what appears to be an environment that is changing and expect it to sustain a high-quality lifestyle as measured by a healthy environment, economy and society. Ozone depletion, droughts, floods, and the threats of global warming are issues we see almost daily in the news. Very high demands are made upon the environment by people living in urban areas.
At the same time, proposed resource developments in remote environments are being proposed to meet our demands for goods. The study of place, space and process – the essence of Geography – can help us understand and solve these real-world problems. Career prospects for geography graduates are varied and good. Both the public and private sectors have and continue to employ our graduates for their ability to use geographic concepts and skills, such as cartography, geographic information systems, statistics and qualitative methods.
I welcome you to check out our graduate and undergraduate programs, and if possible visit us on campus to get a taste of the Western experience! You can also contact us via the internet or phone.
Wishing you much success in your educational endeavours,
Dan Shrubsole, Chair,
Department of Geography

Solving CUB and CPD
In the "doling out advice" world I live in, folks like me tend to have fun with acronyms and pneumonic devices to help make memorable the guidance we love to dispense. (Example: Kill-Till-Fill-Sod!)
Before you run to the Internet to see what you can find about CUB or CPD, they're mine. I made them up. I though they'd be a fun way of helping callers deal with "Canine Urine Burn" or "Canine Pee Disease." (See why I call it CPD instead?)
There's a simple answer to this problem: Change the dog's diet and give him or her plenty of water to flush their system. If you have an indoor dog, keep them outdoors for 24 hours with unlimited access to water.
And let's fix the "burn" while we are at it. Ironically, in most cases, the burned spots can come back greener than before because of the amount of nitrogen in dog urine.
First, quickly saturate with water any area where the dog has done its liquid business. The water will dilute the excess nitrogen or ammonium and, in some cases, excessive salts. To be GardenLine proactive, add some Medina Soil Activator with a pump-up sprayer or a watering can. If you still find a burned area in the grass a day or two after you've saturated it, top dress with a tiny bit of compost. This will sort of remediate the area and break down any excessive "whatever" that's still burning the grass. And, of course, the nearby grass will grow to fill in because of the added organic matter.
As for the dog's diet, get with your veterinarian or a pet food store like www.naturalpawz.com where the staff knows about changing a dog's food for health reasons.
When I lived in Bryan-College Station, I had indoor and outdoor dogs. The indoor dog, a female Lhasa Apso named Chelsea, was damaging my grass with her urine. I asked my friend George, a professor at the Texas A&M vetenary school, what I should do. He suggested changing the dog's diet and letting her spend a day with the outdoor chocolate Lab mix named Murphy so she could drink lots of water and pee all day to flush her system. Viola! As a matter of full disclosure, we did this for three days in a row, because we could. Chelsea was a muddy disaster after a full day in the backyard with Murphy, but the method worked. I never saw another burn spot in the yard there.
Several years later in Cypress, I had two adopted extreme mixes — a male Lab-Dalmatian named Shadow and a female boxer-pitbull named Harley. I never had the problem with Shadow, probably because he was male. I also had him on a fairly sound diet. But I adopted Harley when she was two years old, and she had some system issues. Once I figured out that Harley was responsible for the burn spots, I changed her food. Because she was an outdoor dog, she already had all the water she could handle. In one week, the issue was resolved.
So, I know from experience that the process works. And when I lived in Bryan-College Station, I wasn't the GardenLine guy yet — so I only put some sand on the burned spots. Some time later in Cypress, I saturated the area with Medina Soil Activator, and I'm not kidding — that grass came back greener.
Notice in both my cases, a female dog did the damage. A vet friend once pointed out to me that female dogs void their bladders completely, and they pretty much stay in one spot — especially those who are indoors most of the day. The dudes — well, they hike their leg and dispense smaller portions sporadically because of their instinct to mark territory.

Chasing Reporters : Intertextuality, Entertainment and Public Knowledge
Harrington, Stephen (2010) Chasing Reporters : Intertextuality, Entertainment and Public Knowledge. Media International Australia incorporating Culture and Policy, 134, pp. 121-130.
|Accepted Version (PDF 144kB)
This paper examines 'What Have We Learned From Current Affairs This Week?': a very successful weekly segment from the ABC program The Chaser's War on Everything. It argues that through its intertextual satire, this regular segment acts not as a traditional news program would in presenting news updates on current events, but as a text which reflects on the way news is reported and how this, in turn, may shape public discourse. While the program has been highly controversial (enduring many a loud call for it to be pulled from air), this form of light entertainment can play an important public service by encouraging citizens to 'read through' (Gray, 2006: 104) commercial current affairs' façade of 'quality' journalism.

Obviously new to Club WRX, I don't own a WRX..... YET! But I will down the track, I joined this community so that I could educate myself more on the pros and cons of owning a WRX. I'm thinking of either getting the 2000 model or the 2003-2004. I don't really agree with the bug eye version but If the right bug eye WRX comes along I wouldn't mind getting it.
Anyone have any opinions on the 2000 or 2003-04? In terms of performance, fuel, comfortability, reliability/maintenance? Any experience or knowledge shared is much appreciated!

Doberstein, El Halabi, Amasheh & Donfack win WBF fights in Germany
On Saturday night at the Saarlandhalle in Saarbruecken, Germany, the World Boxing Federation (WBF) Convention came to a conclusion with a big WBF championship quadruple-header presented by local promoters DOG Eventboxing.
In front of a good crowd at the traditional venue, Berlin-based Cameroonian Bernard Donfack captured the vacant WBF international light heavyweight title by fourth round technical knockout over Said Mbelwa from Tanzania in the evening's first championship bout.
Mbelwa clearly came to fight his chance, but after an even first round, a fired-up Donfack scored knock-downs in rounds two and three, before a third one in round four prompted the referee to wave the fight off, much to the displeasure of Mbelwa.
With the victory the new champion improved his record to 17-11-3 (9), while Mbelwa travels back to Dar Es Salaam with a 23-13-4 (15) ledger.
Only a month after winning the title, WBF womens light welterweight champion Rola El Halabi made a successful first defence by seeing off previously undefeated challenger Sopo Putkaradze from Georgia.
The reigning champion dominated the fight from the first bell, and knocked Putkaradze down in round one and two. But the game Georgian managed to hang on until the sixth, where she was rescued on her feet after taking many clean shots.
El Halabi is now 13-1 (7) since turning pro in 2007, and 20-year-old Putkaradze loses for the first time and drops to 6-1-2 (1).
Already a WBF titlist, going in as the Intercontinental Flyweight Champion, undefeated Raja Amasheh moved up in weight to win the vacant WBF Womens World Super Flyweight title by defeating tough co-challenger Eva Voraberger from Austria.
Both boxers gave their all through ten entertaining rounds, but Amasheh proved to be the better of the two in most rounds and in the end she was awarded a well-deserved unanimous decision by scores of 96-94, 97-94 and 98-92.
The new WBF champion from Karlsruhe improved her impressive record to 16-0-1 (4). Voraberger falls to 16-3 (8), losing for the first time in four years and after fifteen straight victories.
In the main event, local hero Juergen Doberstein from nearby St. Ingbert, passed his biggest test to date when he successfully defended the WBF Intercontinental Super Middleweight crown against former WBF champion William Gare of South Africa.
In what turned out to be a very entertaining fight, the game challenger had some success with hard right hands that seemed to wobble Doberstein a few times, but the champion always came back strong.
In round ten Doberstein connected with a beautiful left-right combination which send Gare flat on his back, but the experienced South African managed to pull himself up at the last second and remarkably got through the last two rounds.
After the final bell ended round twelve, it was clear that Dobersten, now 15-1-1 (4), had passed his big test with flying colours, and he will have learned a lot from the questions asked by the old professor Gare, 27-17 (5). The scores were 118 – 109, 119-107 and 120-108.
In attendance at the Saarlandhalle were convention guest of honour, and former World Light Heavyweight Champion, Donny Lalonde, as well as WBF Champions Anne Sophie Mathis, Anne Sophie Da Costa, Gogi Knezevic, Lucia Morelli and Nikki Adler, among others.

Draft help???
Try a multihull. Try to find one with dagger boards if sailing performance is important to you. Otherwise they have small keels which don''t provide the lift and lateral resistance needed to go to windward.
Draft help???
I just got a boat with a true keel/CB design. A Wauquiez Hood 38 (Ted Hood design). I am very happy with the way she sails with the board up. I did quite a bit of research on the sailing characteristics of this kind of boat and the Hood 38 design specifically and found very favorable comments. In my limited experience sailing her (just got her), she points very very well w/o the board down, surprisingly well. She may be a bit tender at first, Ted Hood''s boats like to be sailed heeled, but even in a fresh breeze, I did not find the boat heeling with any more vigor or acceleration than any other boat.
You will need to differentiate between CB designs and true keel/cb designs, there is quite a difference. At first I thought the design was somewhat dated but you will find it used by quite a few larger expensive yachts like: Hinckley, Alden''s, Little Harbor and others being built today.
I would venture to say that a Ted Hood K/CB design would be very satisfying.
Now, all that said, to be fair, a fin keel boat SHOULD point higher and sail better upwind, if that is your goal. It really depends on the INDIVIDUAL boat. And, there can be a penalty to pay for a good K/cb design: my boat is significantly more ballasted (50%) than other 38 footers. This means she needs to carry more canvas (but I have found her very fast and a SA of 700 sq ft is fine with me). Personally, that was an attribute I found positive. To others it may not be.
Hope this helps.
Draft help???
In my search for a shallow draft boat for Florida and Bahamas water I am having a hard time finding a shallow draft 27-30 footer.
I also wonder which boat will sail better to windward a 4'' shoal draft or a keel centerboard combo... I am leaning toward the combination as my areas are pretty shallow.
I wonder though will the boat sail at all without the board down...
Which way is better to acheive my needs and still have a boat that will bo well in heavier conditions as well?
will the keel centerboard boat bewandering all over and be more tender or visa versa?
