5 piece rock 'n' roll revisionaries from Melbourne Australia, whose unique 4-part harmonies & 3 lead vocalists have made their 'feel good' live set the biggest buzz in Oz. This is their debut album of 'instant vintage' pop.
This is the sound of a young band living their dream on the road and recording their various influences, from doo-wop to garage & blues, in their garage; all as anthems with maximum hooks and raw punk edge, ballads or not. Also included are 7 exclusive extra tracks, not letting up on the power & passion.
These effortlessly soulful, genre-fusing pop singalongs paint pictures like classic films, mixing romanticism with vigour as fresh as if Buddy Holly was yet to be born. They sound like the ultimate future 'cool karaoke' classics.

NEW YORK (Standard & Poor's) Jan. 17, 2014--Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said today that its rating on U.S. toll road and tunnel project Elizabeth River Crossing LLC's debt is unaffected following the approval of a reduction in toll rates to start on Feb 1, 2014 on the Midtown and Downtown Tunnels in the Hampton Roads region. The project will receive $82.5 million from Virginia Dept. of Transportation (VDOT) to offset the projected toll revenues. The payments will begin in February 2014 and continue through to the opening of the new Midtown Tunnel and Martin Luther King Freeway Extension, expected no later than Dec. 31, 2016.
The tolls will be 45% and 52% lower in the peak and off-peak periods, with the light vehicles peak period toll at $1.00, down from $1.84. Toll rates will then revert to the original toll schedule once the new tunnel is open. The toll revenues now account for $164 million, or 8%, of total construction costs. The sponsor's $50 million letter of credit remains in place as support for the tolling revenues, which we believe is adequate if there is a construction delay. We believe the VDOT funds are more predictable than toll revenues, and increase cash flow certainty until 2016. Ramp-up and motorists' willingness to pay tolls still remain key project risks.

Maybe you could have found a handful of people who watched the Tar Heels lose to Georgetown in the East Regional championship, who would have argued that Wright would return for another season of college basketball. Most of us knew better. In making it official Monday at a news conference at the Smith Center, Wright said he plans to enter the draft but wouldn't hire an agent yet. (Durham Herald-Sun)

Surfing the internet, you'll find quite a bit of talk that could be considered gibberish. Internet slang such as "noob," words written in numbers instead of letters ("H3ll0!,") and lots of acronyms that don't make much sense on first viewing, if ever; lolz, wtf, rofl, smh, etc. While this type of "gibberish" could be researched for definitions/translations, there is another kind of gibberish which amounts to a sequence of characters which have no meaning as they are displayed. Such gibberish may look like ¤©æ¸ŠèÖí¶«©@%¿™šä, or even just a plain old row of "??????????" Gibberish such as this has its own nickname around the web: "Mojibake."
Mojibake occurs when a computer program, such as your web browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox,) word processor (Microsoft Word, Open Office,) or e-mail client (Windows Mail, Outlook, Eudora,) attempts to interpret and display characters which have a different "character encoding" than that which is available in the program or computer operating system (i.e. Windows XP, Windows Visa, Windows 7, etc.) that is attempting to read said characters.
Character encoding, in its most basic form, is a code which pairs letters, numbers, and symbols with a second descriptive set of characters or actions which act as translation and display devices between two systems. A prime example of character encoding can be found in a system invented many, many decades before the advent of the personal computer; the Braille system. Made up of raised dots aligned in varying patterns which correspond to different letters and numbers in the alphabet, Braille can be likened to character encoding on your computer quite easily: dots in a Braille written book represent encoded letters and numbers (i.e. computer encoded letters, numbers, and symbols in web pages on the internet) which are then read and translated into English by a trained hand (i.e. a web browser such as Internet Explorer) and finally processed into meaningful sentences and phrases; in both cases, by our brains.
Just as Braille words with too many or too few dots would be unintelligible when touched, gibberish characters (Mojibake) will show themselves when Internet Explorer attempts to display characters on a web page containing incompatible character encoding. This type of incorrect character encoding, and the gibberish it subsequently outputs, is commonly due to a web page, document, or other file which had been originally written in a foreign language with characters which are not compatible with your operating system or computer programs' default character encoding. For example, if you go to a website in Internet Explorer which has been programmed in a foreign language, using character encoding not supported by your browser, you will see something like this:
Mojibake Gibberish
So how do you get the web page to show properly? Methods of fixing incompatible character encoding, and ridding yourself of Mojibake, vary from program to program. Fixes usually entail changing the character encoding defaults in your program(s) and/or installing a "language pack" which will allow your program(s) to correctly translate the gibberish on your screen into distinguishable characters, as written in their native language:
And that, in a nutshell, is why our programs occasionally display gibberish-like characters also known as Mojibake.
~J. Conboy

During my bachelorette days, my friends were my only "family" within 3,000 miles and I had a close circle of friends who helped me celebrate all the important occasions in my life, including birthdays and holidays. Even a good tv show was enough for me to invite friends over for a weekly dinner party that ran as long as the new episodes held out. I also hosted an annual Christmas party, which was always a crowd-pleaser, if I do say so myself. I tried to cultivate an air of festive elegance at these events, laced with 1950's cocktail party insanity. Hanky-panky, anyone? Yes, I did say this to each of my guests when I was single, passing around a platter of hot, spicy appetizers named, you guessed it, "hanky pankies" (recipe courtesy of my mother's 1970's era recipe file.) I loved hosting these parties and my friends still tell me they think about my annual Christmas party longingly when the holiday season rolls around. I had one last party after I got married, but after I started having babies, the Christmas party was too much to handle. Just thinking about the days of food preparation made my head spin. (When should I slice my dad's country ham? Are one hundred homemade rolls enough? Should I turn the crock-pot of sweet and sour meatballs on at 4 pm or 5 pm? These thoughts still make me sweat a little bit.)
Sunday Dinner is a great American tradition that has all but disappeared. I want to bring it back. Join me in an exploration of roots food, culinary history, and kitchen folklore. Let's remake Sunday Dinner from scratch.

How to Host a Family Dinner Party Without Driving Yourself Crazy
Family dinner parties are great, and important, but they can end up driving you crazy. And when I say "you", I mean "me". If you're the person who's always in charge of family meals at your house, then you know what I mean. It's wonderful to see friends and family gathered around the table enjoying a meal together, but often the host or hostess has no fun at all. My grandmother was this person, my mom is this person, and I see that this is the person I have become. So I'm going to try to buck tradition and find a way to make family meals less taxing and dare I say, enjoyable for all concerned.

Glowing bacteria that flash on and off together are pointing the way towards implants made of engineered cells that would deliver precise doses of drugs or hormones at specific times of the day.
The bacteria have been engineered to fluoresce in synchronised bursts to produce waves of luminescence – but the researchers were not after a biological light show. The feat is proof in principle that the activity of cells can be artificially coordinated, so that they no longer work in isolation.
As well as a new way of delivering drugs, controlling synchrony between cells might also provide new insights into sleep, learning and brain diseases like Parkinson's and Alzheimer's, which are thought to occur when synchrony between neurons is abnormal.

September Nonfarm Payroll Report
Thanks to the D.C. dysfunction, the September nonfarm payroll report was released 18 days later than expected. Accordingly, the October report has been pushed back one week from Friday, November 1, to Friday, November 8.
Let's take a look at the September report…
- September nonfarm payrolls rose 148,000, below consensus estimates of +180,000
- August nonfarm payrolls were revised higher to +193,000 from a previously reported +169,000
- September private payrolls rose 126,000, below consensus estimates of +180,000
- August private payrolls were revised higher to +161,000 from a previously reported +152,000
- The September unemployment rate (Figure 1) fell to 7.2% from August's 7.3%
- The labor force participation rate (Figure 2) was unchanged at 63.2%
- The underemployment rate fell in September to 13.6% from August's 13.7%
- September manufacturing jobs rose 2,000, below consensus estimates of +5,000
- August manufacturing jobs were revised lowered to +13,000 from a previously reported +14,000
- Average weekly hours worked were unchanged at 34.5
- Average hourly earnings year-on-year rose 2.1%, below August's revised higher 2.3% from 2.2% previously
- Average hourly earnings month-on-month rose +0.1%, below August's revised higher +0.3% from +0.2% previously
In the wake of the payroll report, the S&P 500® Index (SPX) (Figure 3) traded to another new all-time high of 1759.33, and the yield on the U.S. 10-year Treasury (Figure 4) fell to 2.5106%. The D.C. dysfunction and tepid jobs report are evidence that the FOMC's ability to taper its monthly asset purchase program will be pushed back to the March 18-19, 2014 meeting at the earliest.
Besides the September payroll report, construction spending (Figure 5) for August was also reported this morning, coming in at +0.6% month-on-month. That figure was better than the consensus estimate of +0.4%. July's previously reported +0.6% was also revised higher to +1.4%.
So while secular challenges remain for domestic labor conditions, other metrics of the economy continue to suggest acceleration in U.S. growth over the coming months.
Lastly, 131 SPX companies have now reported earnings. Overall SPX sales growth is tracking at +2.16% and overall SPX EPS growth is tracking at +5.54%.

Slowly and quietly, spreads of the 2-10 year Treasuries decided not to blow out and instead have started coming back. What does it mean that in a world of increasing rates, we're getting a flattening yield curve?
Here's the 10 year yield ():
Edging up slightly recently, and certainly not contracting. On the flip side, look at the 2-10 spread ():
A few short months ago, hyper-inflationists were warning that this spread, which hit high after high, would blow out as inflation took hold, became rampant, and we'd be back to the middle ages. I was never in that camp, and while we see some inflationary pressures building, I think the main risk remains deflation as real estate, unemployment, etc. will drag down the consumer.
Regardless, the 2-10 spread has come back from the brink and the curve is now flattening. I don't know which way we go from here, but my analysis is still that rates are headed higher on an absolute level and the flattening yield curve supports my view that a recession or worse could be on the way. It's a bad combination to have higher rates, deflation of stores of wealth, and a government with no ability to provide future fiscal and monetary stimulus.

Security awareness training: creating the human firewall
Conclusion: The threat of a data breach (unauthorised access to data) is not just from hackers, and not just as a result of malicious intent. Carelessness and oversight by trusted inside sources has been shown, repeatedly, to be the root cause of numerous data breaches. Recognising this, many organisations (particularly in government and finance) include security awareness training as part of an employee's induction.
But this one-time security awareness training is easily lost in the information overload experienced by new starters. Security awareness training is vital but in order to realise the benefits, and prevent the acts of carelessness, it is even more important to repeatedly expose employees to the training to keep their level of security awareness elevated. Elevated security awareness helps create the human firewall: probably the most cost effective security resource you can get.

To me, adoption means hope.... and a second (or third..or fourth) chance at finding the home they were always meant for and becoming the dog they were meant to be.
Shayne made the leap from nearly euthanized pound puppy to being featured in her own 1/2 page national coupon for a leading dog-cookie company. She went from a dog they were concerned about adopting out to a dog who was the face of a national brand (if ever so briefly).
Shayne was an abuse/neglect case for the Humane Society--she had been tied to a tree for at least several months and was starved/neglected (and we have reason to believe she had been abused). She was skinny and scared when I convinced the HS to allow me to adopt her (she had food aggression issues that they noted and other aggression issues popped up as she became healthier). It took a lot of work to get her to trust me but she did... she wanted so badly to interact with me but was very scared. Yet this scared dog has also been able to reach out to inner city youth and share the love with them.
She has volunteered her time at a special summer camp for inner city youth (many of whom are like Shayne was, abandoned, neglected, abused, forgotten) (see the photo). She quickly became a camp favorite with these youth because of her willingness to spread the love even if she isn't 100% sure all the time... when the kids learn some massage techniques and just watch as her body relaxes through their soft words and kind touches, they really feel the connection with her and understand what something so small as soft words can do for a timid dog. The girl in the pink shirt in the photo (shayne's head is on her lap) was not 100% comfortable with dogs... she was a little afraid, but that's the girl shayne was so drawn to and felt comfortable enough to lay down on (even thought three other youth were also loving on her)... they were really meant for each other.
To me adoption is about THAT moment... when shayne's head hit the lap of that young woman... a girl who was a little afraid of dogs and the dog who was REALLY afraid of humans are able to connect in a quiet and peaceful moment and really become connected with out words ...just the sound of the creek in the background and the gentle and loving touch between girl and dog...this moment would not have been possible without adoption.
Dear Dogster friends,
I want to share a very sad story about a neighbor dog. This is a sad story, but one that is important to read.
I first want to tell you about Lucius. Lucious was a 2 year old (about) Cane Corso--he was a beautiful dark brindle who had just about grown into his massive head (not quite, but close--he was about 110 i think). He was purchased from an amazing breeder to a great family who cared for him dearly. They spent countless hours socializing their puppy, making sure to build the confidence in Lucius so that he would be a perfect citizen. He frequented the dog beach and the local dog parks. Lucius was loved by everyone in the area and literally everybody knew of him--he was a true ambassador for his breed and all mastiff-type dogs.
About two weeks ago Lucius and his mom and dad were playing ball in the park, like always. They always used a lacrosse ball because it had a lot of spin and made some funny twists and turns, often making Lucius miss the ball entirely. Unfortunately, what made the ball so fun, also made it deadly. Lucius caught the ball on a funny bounce and the large, slippery, solid ball got lodged in his throat--Lucius started trying to cough/vomit.
Lucius' dad immediately looked and felt in his mouth and could not feel or see the ball. He was wise enough to immediately administer the abdominal thrusts (heimlich maneuver). After several thrusts, he felt in Lucius' mouth and could feel the ball... he struggled for several minutes trying to get the ball out of Lucious' throat. He gave a few more abdominal thrusts in effort to bring the ball further up... Lucius' body began to react to being unable to breath and his throat spasmed, effectively locking the ball in place. The ball was too hard and slippery to get any grasp on to pull it out.
After struggling an struggling, Lucius died, at the park, in the arms of his loving dad.
I share this story with all of you just as a warning and a reminder to make sure the toys you play with are appropriately sized for your dog (and your dogs are supervised appropriately). Many dogs each year in the US die from choking on toys and balls are often the culpret.
Please spread the word and share Lucius' story to friends/family/dog park people--it has become a mission for Lucius' parents and his friends to spread this warning so that Lucius' death can save other dogs (and owners).
Very best,
Tena (Shayne's mum)
p.s. If you use lacrosse, golf, racquet, or other solid slippery toy-balls, please consider alternate toys like wiffle balls, jolly balls, or other softer/graspable balls/toys (or larger sized ball). If you are unsure about the size of a ball and its level of choking hazard to your particular dog, ask your vet. Be safe and use a slightly larger ball or one that can easily be grasped.
Dear Fellow Dogsters,
I have heard this working before, so i thought i would give it a try.
I am seeking a teaching job (or anything related to teaching) in the NY/NYC/CT area. I have a Master's Degree in Education and have been in classrooms from 3 year olds to fifth grade over the last five years.
If any one has any connections or knows of any openings i would love any further information.
Thanks for any help you can offer!!

A bush tucker survival story: Leaves with a splash of urine
08/05/2014 , 1:42 PM by Oshaughnessy Gillian
76 year old, Peter O'Shaughnessy is not a 'Kalgoorlie Prospector,' he's a very naughty boy. And it's going to take him a while to live down this story.
Have a listen to him tell 720 ABC Perth his tale of survival in the bush, what he did to make a shelter, forage for food, and uh, what he drank when he ran out of water.
He describes making a small 'humpy' out of tree branches, gum leaves and salt bush, eating sandlewood nuts, and taking apart his metal detector to use a signal for the rescue helicopter.
You can scroll down to the end of this post to listen.
Peter is the father of 720 Afternoons Presenter Gillian O'Shaughnessy and hails from Eaton, near Bunbury in the South West of Western Australia. He's a retired industrial chemist, who likes to go bush every now and again to prospect for gold.
We knew he'd gone out with his brother, Mike and another mate on the weekend, looking for gold near Kalgoorlie. He's an experienced bushie, he was born in Wiluna and grew up roaming around the Goldfields, so he knows how to look after himself.
Still he's 76, and you'd think he might at least carry a mobile phone when he goes wandering around heavily forested areas, riddled with mine shafts in the middle of nowhere.
We got the call that he was missing at 10pm the day he was separated from his companions. We thought he'd be found straight away but when police and SES crew still found no sign of him by lunchtime the next day, we were very afraid.
My two sisters, my daughter, my husband and I waited at home, by the phone, taking texts, asking friends not to call so our phone lines would be free for news, fighting rising panic. We were all separately convinced he'd fallen down a mine shaft, but none of wanted to say it aloud.
I've reported on so many missing people, a lot of them prospectors, but nothing prepares you for the awful feeling of helplessness, and the dread that occassionally gets the better of you and gives way to raw panic. Thankfully we all managed to take turns dropping the bundle, while the others kept it together. We tried to imagine what it's like for those who don't get good results, and selfishly hoped it wouldn't be our family.
Then we'd wait again.
Just before 5pm the second day, we were just about to get in the car and drive up to Kalgoorlie to join the search, useless though it was, but we felt we'd somehow feel better being physically close to where he was last seen.
Then we got the call that he'd been found.
You'd think you'd feel immediately brilliant, but all I can remember is my legs wouldn't hold me up all of a sudden and I wanted to be sick. Then such immense, immense relief. We have been so lucky.
The police at Kalgoorlie station, and the local SES were wonderful. The support and good thoughts we all got from so many friends and listeners was amazing, and every bit of it helped us. We would all like to thank everyone who helped find our dad, grandfather and step dad. Dad is recovering in hospital in Kalgoorlie, tormenting the nurses. We're exploiting his story to say thank you to everyone that helped find him, and helped support his family while he was lost. And because it serves him right.
Now that he's ok, we're all going to form an orderly queue, and give him a good thrashing.
Have a listen to Peter O'Shaughnessy describe what happened here. It's a great story. He's going to especially love the title of the track when he sees it.
You can follow this conversation by subscribing to the comment feed for this post.
Please tell Dad to get himself a cheap GPS (if he doesn't already have one) and carry a box of matches, that way simply light a big fire with lots of green leaf material on it. The aircraft will pick that up miles away. Glad he got home to you all safely.

A happy ending. Thank you for such an articulate description of the "adventure". I'm sure a lot of people have taken some of your wisdom on board.
Posted by: Et | 08/05/2014 at 02:47 PM
Poor Dad-but Gillian, he is still a very capable 50yr old (in his mind). Good that he was a very capable and bush-wise fella.
Posted by: Betty Ballard | 08/05/2014 at 04:10 PM
Gillian Glad to hear the old bloke survived with nothing more than Mozzie bites
Please pass on our regards and best wishes from the Lack family (ex cricket mates from Bunbury)
Posted by: John Lack | 08/05/2014 at 06:07 PM
The South Bunbury cricket lads have also been breathing a sigh of relief along with reminiscing about great times with Shocker. Go you good thing.
Posted by: David Else | 08/05/2014 at 09:16 PM
Dear dear Gillo we just love you to bits. I wondered if it was your Dad. All good now. Thrash him mercilessly then give him a big hug and buy him a mobile. Gary Inglewood.
Posted by: Gary Clyne | 08/05/2014 at 11:37 PM
He could have used modern technology and been relocated considerably sooner. GPS Personal Locator Beacons save lives - their use must be encouraged and the media should be reporting of their existence.
And mobile phones often are out of range in remote areas without coverage, or their batteries run out during prolonged rescues. Don't rely on mobile phones.
Posted by: Selina | 09/05/2014 at 07:52 PM
Dear Gillo, His father Tom must have been watching over him, tell Barry Pascoe & all of them to have a cigarette lighter ,a GPS & most of all walkie talk radios. Nev.Barnes ex Kalgoorlie also a metal detector addict.
Posted by: Neville Barnes | 10/05/2014 at 12:49 AM
Well he certainly lived up to his nickname, "Shocker" as we knew him in Bunbury times. Very happy everything turned out well. Best wishes Helen and Ron Shand
Posted by: Ron shand | 10/05/2014 at 02:09 PM
Hi Gillie your Dad certainly had us all in a tiz! thank goodness it all went well. Wednesday was a very long day. You girls were in our thoughts all the time.
Posted by: Sue and Chris | 10/05/2014 at 07:01 PM
Shocker so glad your ok mate, I was convinced you had found a big lump of gold and was lying low until you got a good price for it? We are not living Aussie at present but we were able to keep track of the updates via the West Australian on-line.

Minority kids spend most of their waking hours plugged in
Minority children spend an average of 13 hours a day using mobile devices, computers, TVs and other media — about 4½ hours more than white kids, says a report out today.
Sponsored Links
The findings, from Northwestern University, are being presented to childhood and telecommunications experts in Washington, D.C.
The results are from an analysis of two Kaiser Family Foundation surveys that tracked media use by kids 6 to 18. Researchers analyzed that data to find out how black, Hispanic, Asian American and white youth use media for homework and for fun, and how long they're plugged in on any given day.
Among 8- to 18-year-olds, Asian Americans logged the most media use (13 hours, 13 minutes a day), followed by Hispanics (13 hours), blacks (12 hours, 59 minutes), and whites (8 hours, 36 minutes.)
Researchers didn't say why, but some experts have theories.
"Children may turn to media if they feel their neighborhoods lack safe places to play or if their parents have especially demanding jobs that prevent engagement," says Frederick Zimmerman, chair of the department of Health Services at UCLA School of Public Health.
"It's clear that, overall, American youth spend an enormous amount of time with media, but minorities spend most of their waking hours with media," says study director Ellen Wartella, head of the Center on Media and Human Development in the School of Communication at Northwestern.
The report shows that compared with white children, minority youth:
•Watch TV and videos one to two hours more a day;
•Listen to music about an hour more a day;
•Use computers about 1½ hours more a day;
•Play video games 30 to 40 minutes longer a day.
Black (84%) and Hispanic kids (77%) also are more likely to have TVs in their bedrooms and to eat meals in front of the TV.
"Everyone is using too much media across the board. There are only so many hours in the day. They're going to miss out on a lot of important things, especially face-to-face contact," says Eleanor Mackey, a clinical psychologist with Children's National Medical Center in Washington, D.C. She says kids need more family time, and the fact that so many are eating dinner with the TV on is "alarming."
"Protect family meal times. We know this to be very important for a child's development," Mackey says.
There shouldn't be a rush to blame or exonerate parents, but rather an effort to try to understand the factors that drive such high levels of use, Zimmerman says.
Growing obesity rates among children, especially minority youth, may also correlate to the high screen time, says Michael Rich, professor of pediatrics at Harvard Medical School, and director of the Center on Media and Child Health at Children's Hospital Boston. He says more research is needed to clarify that relationship, however.
Rich, who blogs online at Askthemediatrician.org, says he is also concerned about the content of media being viewed, and that children are losing valuable sleep hours to electronics, which can affect school performance and behavior.
The research also indicated that among all groups, computer playtime far outweighs computer use for homework in the 8- to 18-year-old age range; only about 16 to 20 minutes a day can be chalked up to school-focused activities, the study shows.
In addition, depending on the primary medium involved, as many as 47% of 8- to 18-year-olds in all groups say that "most of the time" they multi-task with another type of media.
"These findings should be a clarion call to minority communities to protect their children's future health and well-being by insisting on a right to more media-free time," Zimmerman says.

Sorry to hear this. I just lost my 11-year-old Boxer who got Lymphoma. I am still pretty devastated. I feel totally lost, probably since I have no kids and that dog was my best friend and like a child.
Hang in there and realize it may take some time to grief and get over it. Time heals everything. Just realize that it takes time.
Sorry to hear about your loss. Cats have their own unique personalities. I've had cats as long as I can remember, and no 2 were the same.
They choose which human they will own, and then bless that person with their love. As I tell my wife often, "Cats are some of the best people I know."

My condolences. We've been through this several times in the past. It's not easy losing a friend who loved you unconditionaly. Remember the happy times and do consider finding the pet who needs you. Again my condolences.

wow, reading your post made me reflect back to last year when my little buddy past on. His name was Sylvester because he had the same coat as the cartoon. I was actually holding him when he took his last gasp of air; incredibly sad day that day and many more thereafter.
I feel for you and I'm very sorry for your loss. The loss of a beloved pet is a very traumatic event, and only a fellow pet lover can understand it. All the best to you and yours.
I'm sorry you lost your puuuurrrrfeeect friend,It never ceases to amaze me how those furry four legged PITA critters like dogs and cats and other pets can steal a big hunk of our hearts

So sorry to hear of your loss. A sad day.
Sorry you lost your friend. I made sure to hug my cat before I left home for school earlier today....I guess forced love squeeze is a better term. She was fairly resistant.
I am sorry for your loss as well.
We have our first two cats (sisters), one of which we nursed to health after the brood's rough start in a window well a couple Septembers ago. Three households split the 6 kittens. We nursed two originally, Boo & Hummer, & thought Boo might not make it. Boo did, but Hummer took a turn for the worse & we had to put her down after her first month with us - very tough. We then took on another one of the more sickly ones (Daisy), but had to put her down within days of getting her. In the end we took one more to give Boo a buddy, & that's Ollie. Of the original 6, only 3 survived (handsome Hank is with the family who gave us Ollie).
I don't know how I'll handle it when the girls get on in years, but hope to gain strength in reading about how others deal with their sorrow. Prayers & purrs on the wind...

Pain in back of knee
I have pain in the back of my knee when doing a full squat, kneeling or doing a quad stretch in which you pull your foot tight to your but.
After yesterdays squatting, I have had this dull achey feeling, and now it's painful when I walk and my leg is stretched fully.
No swelling or anything visual.
I'm going to put the squats on hold for now.
Don't squat 3 times a week if you're an old man? :B:
I'd be interested in this too. Seems almost like I hyper-extend it occasionally. I noticed that it occurred when I hadn't been doing deep olympic or front squats. What seems to help, although painful as hell, is to work through it oly style (feet shoulder width or a little wider and at a 15 degree angle or so). If it's really bad, just use body weight or even bands to assist. I did this for a few days, then light oly squats (same foot placement.) I read something recently about knees occassionally not "tracking" correctly and this was a suggestion to cause the knee to track better.
If you only deadlift and say, parallel PL-style squat, you might try this to sort of "reset" your knees. Warm up VERY well too. My problem might have been completely different, but I have to say, my knees were hurting to walk up stairs, but this pain has gotten much better since.
If you have bands, warm up with knee sleeves on, then try this out with some BW assistance if needed using the bands - then add weight. I'd be interested to know if this works for you to see if it's the same issue.
The foot placement and starting back for a week or so with high reps with BW or less might help. Use bands tied to a power rack to take off weight. One other possibility, if your knee wraps or whatever you use are thick or bunch when you are at the bottom, this may "lever" the joint, sort of pulling it apart.
Just another thought after actually reading your question closely :o
I will avoid squats for two weeks before I take a trip to the doc
Go to youtube and search "buddy morris knee"
Watch all of the parts
thats funny ive been having the same problem
That Buddy Morris video might have given me the solution to my knee trouble! Fantastic!
thanks for the vid's jesse. I'll try that out.
Dane, are you squatting through it??
no sir i have drop the squatting and found out that the knee pain was related to the hip problem i have been having

Hey there tg -- Have you loaded up a dummy round with your components yet? Will the shorter Hornady brass reach the crimp ring in the Lee Loader? Best regards. Wind
I am getting ready to get all the things I need to reload my first batcch of brass and I am hoping I can run this by you folks to make sure I am as prepared as can be.
I have read ABC's of reloading and Lyman's 48th edition, reviewed the Speer book and the Hogdon Chart.
I have the Lee classic loader with the apropriate hammer
I have a scale, cutter, chamfer, deburring tool, powder trickler, lube and pad, caliper and primer pocket cleaner.
I am about to order materials. I plan to reload for use at the range for the moment until I become proficient with it and then move to more precise hunting loads in time for the season. The materials I plan to get are:
Winchester Large Rifle primers #8-1/2
Hogdon H4895 smokeless (loading 56grains)
Hornady 45caliber (45 interlock 300 grain
I am reusing the brass from Hornady Leverevolution 325 grain cartridges.
Any and all feedback would be very much appreciated since this is truly my first run at reloading.

I have not actually. I should have included that question regarding the brass. I understand that hornday brass is shorter so I am guessing I may have to consider different brass possibly if the hornday shells are too short. I was actually aware of that and failed to mention it.

sounds like you have everything you need to me. and the classic lee will crimp your brass no problem, its the dies you use in a press that have a hard time with the shorter brass
Can new, high quality .45-70 brass be bought at Gander Mountain, Bass Pro, etc., or are on-line sources much more economical? Can brass be bought in quantities like 500? Can you tell I've never bought anything except factory loads? I'm just tryin' to hook onto goochie's tail to pick up some info? Is brass plentiful?
Some members order brass directly from Starline but I was putting in a small order with Midway USA anyway, found an online coupon that covered most of the shipping, and just ordered from them. For $43.40 per 100, I considered this a good price.

If I cannot find one that works, I just wait to place my order until I find one. I mostly use the $10 coupons that covers most of the shipping.

So I thought that they did a mating flight once a month or so? Wrong? F
I dont understand why more people dont clip a wing. I marked my queens this year and lost a very good one in a swarm. Dr Larry Connor recommends even year left, odd year right. I know about it not being a swarm prevention but if they are going to swarm let them swarm with a virgin. Doesn't this just give the beek more control
