Discussion in 'General Discussion' started by dll74848, Mar 22, 2015.
Let´s her experience. It costs nothing to try. Then, tell us.
Im 5'3" and barely 100 lbs.and I have a very tiny and tight pussy and one of my lovers has 14 very thick hard inches yet he is a very gentle lover! He takes alot of time licking and sucking me and preparing my pussy for his huge cock.Then he rubs my pussy with the head of his beautiful cock for a long time gently working it in until my pussy is soaking wet and grabbing at his fat cock and only then he slides his cock in me and stretches my pussy so wide Ive cried before and almost passed out but GOD it feels so fucking good and I cum so hard its incredible!!!!!! Hahaha my tiny white dick husband?????? What husband? Lol
From my experience physical size seems to have little to do with how much cock a woman can handle. On of my friends is barely 5 ft tall and very petite and she just fucks the Hell out of me. I would strongly suggest that at the first encounter that she mount up cowgirl. It will likely take some effort and some work for her to absorb a real big one first time around. Her being on top will likely make the process more fun for her
Top is one of the better positions for a woman.
In this virtual world, all black men are alpha males with 13 inch cocks, and all white guys are submissive beta males with small cocks ... just look at the avatars.
Welcome to b2w by the way ... the entertainment is awesome.
I'm 5-11, i cannot
max - 24 cm (9.5)
All normal women can handle a big sized cock. It contracts and come back to its normal size and shape, Some women have, however, shallow pussy and it can to be a problem. But it not depends of the size on woman´s body.
Agree with Paulus50, depends on the woman. Before the Mrs. I had a tall lady friend who could not manage more than 8" comfortably and one 4'11" dynamo who could take 10"+ without problem. It also depends on the position and angle of penetration, too.
I worry ab that myself. I am 5'1.5"
Don´t worry.
Thanks if this bull doesn't back we will see what happens.
For you wonderful things always happen.
There are not many around in fact very few the man that holds the world record is 13.5 and he is a freak so don't worry just for the record and the fact that I enjoy reminding people now and again, specially some here he is White
Bet it felt like your first time!
A woman's vagina is quite flexible and accommodating. I've had cocks so long that it felt as if it was trying to pound through my cervix. I've had cocks so fat as a soda can "thank goodness for a wet pussy and baby oil!"
I'm 5'9 125lbs and have determined my preferred BBC at 10 inches by 2 inches wide, a big head is nice, I can accommodate that in all three of my holes "at the same time is heaven!" totally shaved, the blacker the better! Oh! At least 6 feet tall and built! I like to see myself manhandled by my black masters in my mirrors. ' )
Wooooww, Nieve Blanca (Snow White), we (Kassia & Paulus) guess you like 7 black giants, not 7 dwarfs. Go ahead.
If you are intimidated by the size then get on top. I love to lay on my back an watch a newbie impale herself on my cock. After you have gotten accustomed to your bulls size then explore different positions. Most women seem to be able to handle the most penetration on their backs in the classic missionary position. However you are at the mercy of the bull on top of you so trust is essential. Over the years I have been told more than once"You aren't pinning me to the bed with that thing" or something to that effecton the first encounter. Especially if you haven't had a really big one patience and lots of lubricant are essential. Most women can handle a lot more cock than they realize. Sex should be about sharing pleasure, any decent bull should be willing to address your concerns
dll is a female married to another female?
A 13" cock is almost unheard of. I think the world's largest documented cock is 13+" (and is a white guy!) so most tiny women don't really have to worry about it. The biggest my wife has ever fucked is a little over 12", or so he claimed. It was huge but she did not put a tape measure on it for verification. The next biggest she has enjoyed was 11+" and like the biggest he was also black. From her experiences with black lovers it seems like they are bigger than average, a lot are 8 to 9" but most are not anywhere near the fabled "monster" size.
My wife is 5'2" and 110 lbs and I have watched her intently as she fucked those 11 and 12" cocks and all I can say is she really enjoyed them. It was more effort for her to allow her black lovers to work the entire length of their shaft into her when compared to my cock. I can shove my 6.5" cock up to the hilt with a few strokes where the horse cocks have to gradually stretch her out and slowly work inside her.

Book 2, The Corruption Series - A Mafia Romance
CD Reiss
This book can be downloaded and read in iBooks on your Mac or iOS device.
Antonio is a killer. He's beautiful and educated; a prodigy of a thief and as violent a badass as ever came off the boat from Napoli.
Theresa knows it, but that doesn't stop her from getting emotionally and physically entangled with him, and this is how, maybe she got it in her head that she can protect him.
But it's not her job to save him, and she's just not getting that. Every time she tries to protect him, she practically gets him killed, and the tighter he grips her, the more dangerous she becomes.
It's almost as if protecting her is the one thing he should stop. As if the only way he's ever going to find a moment's peace is to just embrace her as a partner, rather than a defenseless creature.
But he'd never do that. Not this violent badass.
WARNING: This book contains delicious sex scenes with a hot man dirty-talking in Italian; women handling firearms and explosives; and scenes of violence with a crystal Virgin Mary cigarette lighter.
Customer Reviews
Love love love😍
So good must read series love this Author
No stars
I really dislike this series. Theresa, Contessa whatever her name is, is super boring and has no sustenance. Antonio is what a Capo that has legal businesses? Really this book is all over the place, I'm very disappointed after reading the first set of Drazen characters but this one horrible. It's been 1 1/2 weeks and I'm still trying to get through this..I wish I could get my money back this is awful!!! Don't waste your time or money!!!
It's OK, I'm not in a rush to finish the sereis
First of all; I could listen to Brian Pallino speak in an Italian accent all night long. Oh goodness he gave me the vapors. LOL.
I like the story fine; however, Reiss's writing style keeps throwing me off. She just gets too enthusiastic with her metaphoric descriptions, to the point it takes away from the story and makes me zone out. Less is more to me.
The story is good and I am curious to see what happens next, but I think I am going to hold off, and listen to some other books for a while first. Overall; it's a steamy, thrilling read, and if you can get around the writing or don't mind that type of writing, it will be right up your alley....Sara

Investor ReadyT Workshop
The Mid-Island Science, Technology & Innovation Council (MISTIC), 150 Commercial Street, Nanaimo, is working in partnership with the BC Angel ForumT and BC Investment Capital Branch to offer an Investor ReadyT Workshop. This informative educational workshop will assist you with becoming investor ready in preparation for the Angel Forums scheduled to take place on March 8, 2011, and in late June 2011. The Investor ReadyT Workshop in Nanaimo will be on Tuesday, January 11, 2011, from noon to 5 pm, beginning with a networking lunch.
The Investment Capital branch of the BC Government has launched a new initiative to develop sustainable Angel Investor networks in BC's regions. The objective is to increase access to capital for early stage companies by assisting local investors to invest in and mentor local companies, which will contribute to the economic sustainability within the region.
One popular incentive for investors, is a thirty percent investment refundable BC Government tax credit where a $50,000 investment by a BC investor in an eligible BC company, results in a thirty percent refund back to the investor, for a net cost of $35,000 on a $50,000 value investment. This incentive has been under-utilized by companies and investors in the regions outside of Vancouver and Victoria with only 10% of the overall total being used.
MISTIC is offering this unique opportunity to regional entrepreneurs at a cost of $35 per person until January 4, 2011. After January 4, the cost is $50 per person. Pre-registration is required. For more information, contact the MISTIC office at 250-753-8324 or 877-664-7842.

After installing a video editor (Aiseesoft), I set the output destination to a folder in a second partition which is 'D:\Videos.' That folder had plenty of video files. Big mistake. All the files in that folder disappeared.
Using Recuva recovery software, I was able to recover a few files. The others won't play though. Now whenever I do the Search command, the deleted files are listed in the folder 'H/Videos' which seems a virtual drive. From that H drive, I was able to play the files but the files are truncated(cut short). I can even copy them to D:\ Videos and play but they are not complete. No big problem because I have a backup of them but in different and edited format.
My problem is how to permanently delete the deleted files from that H drive. Deleting them from the Search Results only gave a message "nothing to do" and "deleting from archive" which continues endlessly. Not sure if they still occupy hard drive space physically.
Using XP SP3. Thanks.

Probably not the answer you're looking for but this does work. If you have Unix/Linux skills, you can install the free Cygwin package (http://www.cygwin.org) and open a Bash shell and use good old "rm" to get rid of your files. Anything deleted by "rm" is gone and won't show up in a Recycle Bin.
You can actually search for free File Shredder software. I know there are tons of them around online.
Believing yourself to be secure only takes one cracker to dispel your belief.
I love these hit & run posters. We try to help them and they don't even bother to reply.
He actually is a member since 2005, I checked his profile. Maybe he just missed this, what I would like to think. But for me, file shredders online(frreeware) are my top choices for this task.

I've been using JustHostMe for about 5 years and apart from (very) occasional server outages it's a great system at an excellent price. When I've had queries or requests they've always responded within a working day.
The fact that I get unlimited databases and subdomains is perfect for being able to host a number of small Drupal websites. Many webspace suppliers only allow you a single database which would be quite limiting.
The CPanel is essential for a shared hosting system where you don't have shell access, and it covers almost everything you need to do. For anything else you'd need a VPS system at additional cost and complexity -- although I have one for some things (through another supplier) it's not necessary for simple webspace.

Technology has many benefits but personally I feel it is making relationships harder. Here are some of the things I have noticed: conversations have become texting; arguments became phone calls, and feelings became subliminal messages online for the whole world to see.
Our modern society contributes also to the difficulty relationships suffer today. Sex became easy and with anyone. The word love gets used all the time for things that are really not loved. Insecurities have become a normal way of thinking and feeling. Getting jealous became the normal action. Trust is just a word and the meaning has been lost. Cheating became an accident that could not have been avoided. Please explain to me how you can accidentally have sex? Leaving then became the only acceptable option. Being hurt and lonely became natural.
When I find a significant other, I plan on discussing with him all the issue listed above. Working together we will come up with a plan combating these things, and preventing them from harming us. Every six months we will review our plan and see if anything needs to be added or improved upon.
Being aware of the danger and planning will help your relationships chances in succeeding and help you avoid potential problems.

I don't think it's too early to start sharing Christmas crafts, is it? I have several stash busting, "scrappy" Christmas crafts planned for this week, starting with this Retro Fabric Christmas Wreath designed by Rebekah Meier. Rebekah chose retro style fabrics in soft reds and greens, with a touch of aqua. If you prefer a bolder and more traditional Christmas red and green, go ahead and use your favorite fabrics. This is an easy wreath to change up for your own Christmas decorating style. Let the Christmas crafting season begin!
To make a Retro Fabric Christmas Wreath, you'll need:
- STYROFOAM™ Brand Foam: 12" wreath
- Fabric:
- 5 fat quarters or 5, 1/4 yd. lengths
- 3" x 30" strip (for bow)
- Trims: Red lace and ric-arc
- Button thread
- Fabric glue
- Tools needed: Scissors; iron; straight pins; needle; optional: sewing machine
To make a Retro Fabric Christmas Wreath:
1. Cut fabric into 3" x 18" strips.
2. Fold strips in half. Pin the end of one fabric strip to the back of the wreath, and then wrap the strip around the wreath, overlapping the cut edges so that they're covered. Pin the other end to the back of the wreath. Spot glue, if needed. Repeat, pinning and wrapping additional fabric strips till the wreath is covered. Alternate colors as you go.
3. Wrap the lace and/or ric-rac around the wreath between the different colors.
4. Make the bow:
- If using the sewing machine, fold the 3" strip in half so it measures 1-1/2" x 30".
- With right sides together, machine stitch ¼" from the raw edge, and leave a 2" opening.
- Trim seams and turn right side out.
- Press with iron.
- Slip stitch opening closed.
- Tie in a bow and glue and pin to the wreath.
Or, if not using a sewing machine, simply tear fabric into a 1 1/2" strip and tie into a bow. Pin and glue to the top of the wreath.
And that's it – a new Christmas wreath in four steps! Rebekah will join us again on Thursday with another Christmas wreath. See you then!
Happy crafting.

Ash Wednesday 2017
Ash Wednesday 2017
Reigniting Passion
So too with us, as we begin Lent. What is the most important thing on which we have to focus? What is our priority? To use that last verse from the Gospel today, 'Where is our treasure?' It's not prayer and penitence, as essential as prayer and penitence are. It's not fasting and almsgiving giving, as important as they are. It's not study and reflection, as important as they are. No, it's none of these. The most important thing on which we have to focus is our passion for God, for God's world and for life. Lent is a God-given opportunity to reconnect with God and to re-ignite our passion. The Lenten disciplines of prayer and penitence, of fasting and almsgiving, of study and reflection are important but they are a means of helping us achieving our goal of reigniting our passion for God, for God's world and for life.
Why is passion so important? It's important because our passion shows we are fully alive and open to Jesus Christ and when we are fully alive and open to Jesus then we reflect the glory of God. Irenaeus, a theologian in the early church, wrote, 'The glory of God is a person who is fully alive.' If we love, if we experience joy, if we suffer, if we laugh, if we cry, if we feel deeply, if we speak out against injustice then we can be sure that we are fully alive. All of these things happened to Jesus. We know he loved – that's the very reason for his coming to us. We know that he experienced joy – he would have felt that when he saw people being changed by what he said. We know that he suffered – that's what happened during this period of Lent and Holy Week. We can be pretty sure he would have laughed – probably at the many meals he had with his friends. He certainly cried – he did that when he heard of the death of his friend Lazarus. We know he felt deeply – his heart went out to the widow of Nain whose son had died. We know that he spoke out against injustice - this is what got him into so much hot water when he went against the conventional thinking and behaviour of the time. It's not always easy to be people of passion and open to Jesus Christ – it led Jesus to the cross and we can be sure that the same will happen, in some way or other, to all of us. But, then, that's our calling. So, what's the alternative to passion?
Well, it's apathy or numbness – and while apathy or numbness have always been around, they are particular temptations in today's world. In
Lent is an opportunity to start again. We can look at God, our world and ourselves afresh - and we can claim back our humanity. The root of the Greek word for 'repentance' means change of mind or change of attitude. Lent reminds us that we worship a God whose love is always available and whose forgiveness is always offered. God does not ebb and flow like the sea, but God is always there calling us into a deeper and fuller relationship with him. Lent is an opportunity to reconnect with God and reignite our passion. When we reconnect with God, we reconnect with life. The challenge of Lent is summed up by the very last verse of today's Gospel: 'For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.' Where is our treasure – what is of most value to us?
So 'enjoy' Lent. Use the opportunities it provides to the full but don't take on too much – we are all works in progress, until, and maybe beyond, the day we die. We are all different and so we will can all gain different things from Lent. Be open to new possibilities. Be open to
I have been reflecting on some wider issues around Lent: I want to conclude with some words by Pope Francis with some helpful advice on the specific discipline of fasting:
Do you want to fast this Lent?
- Fast from hurting words and say kind words.
- Fast from sadness and be filled with gratitude.
- Fast from anger and be filled with patience.
- Fast from pessimism and be filled with hope.
- Fast from worries and trust in God.
- Fast from complaints and contemplate simplicity.
- Fast from pressures and be prayerful.
- Fast from bitterness and fill your heart with joy.
- Fast from selfishness and be compassionate to others.
- Fast from grudges and be reconciled.
- Fast from words and be silent so you can listen.

Important: This guide is in an early stage and is not completed yet!
Hello Summoners,
and welcome to my first guide on mobafire feat. Riven the Exil!
First of all thank you for clicking on my guide. I want to show you how i play Riven but before I get started I want to mention a few things about me. Hopefully you didn't noticed it yet, but English isn't my first language so be patient with my language skills as they might be not as good as others.
Also be so kind to Vote & Comment on this guide to help me fixing the problems. Since this is my first guide be free to leave some tips. ;)
So let's start with the guide and learn how to play Riven!
Pros and Cons
|+ Strong duellist
+ High mobility
+ Safe pick
+ Snowballs hard
+ Insane ability-kit
+ Only falls of very late
+ No mana or other resources
|Riven is an incredible strong laner and is only limited by CD. She has no direct counters due to her awesome kit, wich makes her a safe blind pick in most cases. In mid game she can take on nearly everyone in an 1v1 because of her high damage and mobility. She is able to snowball the entire game.
|+ High Skill Cap
+ Hard to come back
+ Not naturally tanky
+ Item depentend
+ requires constant aggression
|Riven might seem easy to pick up at first but it is hard to land her skills and cobos properly. Since she scales so great with pure AD she is pretty item depentend on her damage output. This is the reason why a comeback is not so easy when you lack in terms of gold. Also her playstyle requires knowledge of your current potential, because she needs to go all in very often.
Summoner Spells
Ignite is very useful when you plan to be agressive or want to secure kills. If you want a first blood take this for sure. It deals true damage and can be a pain in early levels because of the healing reduction. Later on it is litteraly not that important but still can be an usefull spell. Perfect for us. I usually take this in combination with flash when i'am solo top.
Flash is definetly the most powerful summoner spell. It is better than Ghost for serveral reasons. First of all you are able to flash over most walls when you try to escape. Also it is perfect for a surprising engagement or to close the gap to a flewing enemy quickly. It is an overall more flexible spell. Almost every lane opponent will take this so pick it also.
Teleport might not be that agressive and you will loose an advantage in your matchup if the enemy has ignite, but with an coordinated team you can became a huge threat to the enemy. Teleport ganks are very powerfull and can be used to push lanes out quickly or get an andvantage in objective fights. Example for Dragon you can teleport down to secure the objective with rest of your team.
Only Teleport if your lane is pushed!
Even though jungle Riven is almost never seen. It can definetly work. Riven is a strong ganker but her clearing speed is kinda okay. She needs much gold so farming is important. I would max out her Ki Burst first because of the AoE. I will make an extra chapter for her Jungle soon when i have enough experience about it.
-> Jump to this part.
I like to go for an unusual masterie set-up since i can't choose between the offensive and defensive option. This set up gives me the best of both so you are more flexible. It is also viable for other more aggressive Offtanks/Bruisers such as Darius or Garen.
Of course if you want to score First Blood you should take 21/9/0. These are only for pure damage and your goal is to assassinate the enemy ADC or APC.
Look what your Jungler is picking don't go for two offensive builds!
Riven is not meant to be a pure tank so you should not go for 9/21/0.
Offensive Tree
Tier 1:
Take a point into Summoner's Wrath because you will pick up Ignite 99% of the time. CDR is very good on Riven so taking Sorcery is the best choice. There is one point left so put it in Butcher for easier last hitting.
Tier 2:
Deadliness adds 12 AD at level 18. Can make a difference so take on every AD scaling Champ.
Tier 3:
With Havoc your damage output is 2% higher not much but theres is nothing better. Weapon Expertise is very good it provides 8% armpen wich scales well with Riven overall.
Tier 4:
Take Brute Force it may be only 3 AD but you don't need any crit so skip Lethality .
Tier 5:
And last but not least take Sunder . 2 flat armpen, always good.
Defensive Tree
Tier 1:
Since you have your shield at level 3 you won't have a problem with minion aggro. So i put 1 point into Perseverance and of course in Durability for the extra health.
Tier 2:
5 armor and 2 magic resist. Can be swapped if you facing an ap champ.
Tier 3:
Unyielding is perfect for 1v1 also the 30 flat hp from Veteran's Scars are very standart.
Tier 4:
Put your last point in Block . It will prevent some AA poke from ranged champions not much but better than nothing.
Greater Mark of Attack Damage
Greater Seal of Armor
Greater Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist
Greater Quintessence of Attack Damage
Pretty standart stuff. You can put this setup on any other AD top laner. So consider to buy these very quickly if you dont have runes at all. There are viable for many roles. So let's take a more detailed look at them:
These could be replaced with armpen but AD boosts you early game quite descent. We won't miss on that because Riven scales so well of it. Riven doesn't need attack speed at all because she is a AD Caster and the only AAs you will deal are to proc your Runic Blade, so never try it.
This is pretty obvious. 80% of the top picks are AD so armor runes are a must have the seals are the best to take. Dont consider armor runes in other slots it is wasted because they can provide more usefull stuff.
Some top picks are AP and of course for the late game you will need some magic resist. I found these more usefull than the flat ones because APCs getting strong quite late and you should not have a problem of magic damage burst in lane.
Same as for the marks. Flat AD will boost your early don't change these at all other stats provide not enough to be viable for Riven. Movement speed is cool but not on her she is quite mobile with her Broken Wings and Valor.
Runic Blade
Riven will gain an extra damage buff for her next AA in 5 sec. after using one of her abilities. This can stack up 3 times.
An outstanding passive. This is what makes you win most trades early. AA's between your skills will increase your damage heavily. Make use of it as often as possible.
Broken Wings
A three part combo. On the last strike Riven will knock nearby enemies back. It also has a higher damage radius then the two before.
Annoying skill for your enemies because every strike will proc your passive! Also the knock back ist very usefully if they try to run away. But it requires some practice to land the 3rd strike properly. Can also be used to escape.
KI Burst
An instant AoE stun that will also deal damage around Riven. Cast radius is smaller than on broken wings.
Good harrasment tool. Safe damage because the enemy won't be able to respond to your engagement due to the stun.
Riven dashes forward gaining a shield saving her for incoming damage. It will last up to 2.5 secs.
It scales of AD with a 1.0 ratio so it's very good for tower diving. Very versatile. You can also use it between your combo to get the passive or shield an ignite. Also an descend escape.
Blade of the Exile
Riven gains damage and range on her AA's and abilities for the next 15 secs. Within this time she may reactivate this skill to use Wind Slash wich will emit a shockwaves in front of her dealing damage.
Great ultimate on a decent cooldown. Riven can 1v1 most enemies with that ultimate. Wind Slash deals more damage on injured targets, so great for an execution even after they flashed.
Skill Sequence
Option 1: Max Damage
This is the most common way. On the first level Broken Wings outdamges other skills. Also the mobility is a must have. I take Ki Burst secound for the harrasment. Take the third point into Valor. As always the ultimate has the highest priority follwed by Q, W, and the E at last.
This way has one negative aspect because maxing Broken Wings doesn't reduce its cooldown! Try to remember this in fights.
Option 2: Safe Harrasment
More passive option. The first 3 levels are the same if you think the enemie is too skilled or you got behind by an early gank you should consider switching to this. You can get way more poke because the shield of Valor get's stronger mid game.
There are no other viable options in my opinion because maxing your Valor doesn't provide any damage also the shield scales with AD and early on you don't have any big damage items. It is also against the usual aggressive riven playstyle. So don't get behind! ;)
Items and Builds
There are two other possible starting options that i don't mentioned above. These are very situational and should never picked up without a good reason. So let's see what I think about that:
The Doran's Blade is a quite popular start. However i won't recommend it because it forces you to play aggressive even if you should not. You will have no sight ward or Health Potion to prevent early jungle ganks. Generally i like this item but not as a starting choice. Usually i get one of these on my first trip back. Leave this to the Pro Players.
The Doran's Shield isn't bad at all. But it is the passive which makes it so situational. At least you can buy one Health Potion extra so have a little bit more sustain. You should only grab it if you play against a champ who pokes you alot with AAs. Examples would be: Nidalee, Kennen, Jayce, Vayne or other ADC top lanes.
So there are two core Items you have to choose from these are the Ravenous Hydra and The Bloodthirster. Statisticly the BT is picked up way more often (source: elophant) but in my opinion the Hydra is equal or in many situations a better option. Because the building path of the Tiamat is more gold efficient than the B. F. Sword. You have many items to build so you can buy at least something when you need to go back. If you pick the [[bloodthirster you need to reach 1550 G which is alot! On your way waiting for it you don't get any extra stats.
Another point is the wave clear. Riven wave Clear is very good but with a Ravenous Hydra she becomes a huge split pushing threat. Also in fights the "extra spell" becomes very usefull. But you need to use that active! If not it is wasted becasue The Bloodthirster (if stacked] outdamages it and will provide you with more lifesteal.
Unfortunately there are many ways to build her or in which order. However this keeps your build viable for most situations. So you can even rush a Last Whisper if you facing champions with an armor level over 9000. Examples would be: Shen, Renekton or Malphite. They usually don't buy any damage items and want to tank the **** out of you. If you dont fall behind to much you could rush this to still deal some decent damage.
But what do you buy when you fall behind? Lets discuss that in the Gameplay section next chapter because it's more a question of when not what.

made some small changes to my custom user.js file for Firefox – you can download the file on GitHub – the change-log is here
Category Archives: Tech
Article update: Firefox Configuration Guide for Privacy Freaks and Performance Buffs
The article, Firefox Configuration Guide for Privacy Freaks and Performance Buffs, has been rather heavily updated to reflect changes in my GitHub repository for the
user.js file. Basically i decided to delete the fork i created of the Pants/ghacks code and create a new repository with only my personal
user.js settings which are intended to be appended to his.
This change makes things much easier on me in that i no longer have to publish and test new releases when the ghacks code is updated. On the flip side, users will now have to keep track of changes to two repositories instead of one.
user.js updated to v51r2
The second revision of the user.js file for Firefox 51.x has been published and a lot of the text in the Firefox Configuration Guide for Privacy Freaks and Performance Buffs article has been edited. You should probably re-read at least the 'user.js' section to get up to speed.
Update: Firefox Configuration Guide for Privacy Freaks and Performance Buffs
user.js file in the Firefox Configuration Guide for Privacy Freaks and Performance Buffs has finally been updated … and what an update it is!
I quickly realized what i got myself involved in when i started publishing my own
user.js file in that it's a lot of work to keep pace with the rapid development cycle of Firefox and i began to dread sifting through a large and ever-growing list of preferences every time i published an update. As such, i decided to piggy-back on the excellent work done by 'Pants' and his helpers whose custom
user.js file has become rather popular since it was first published by Martin Brinkmann on Ghacks. Just a couple of days ago Pants also published his work on GitHub which i think was a great idea that will attract even more contributors.
So what does all this mean to you, the guy or gal that uses my
user.js? Well, initially it means you're going to have a lot of work to do insomuch as you're going to have to go through the entire
user.js file all over again from top to bottom. Sorry about that, but scope of this update meant it would have been extremely time consuming for me to document every single change. The good news is that future updates will be a lot easier.
The format of the new file and everything you need to do is explained in my guide. In short, i am using Pants' configuration almost verbatim, other than commenting out a few of his preferences, and then appending my personal settings to the end of his.
So there you have it. Now get to work! :)

There seems to be a general case of that "almost Wednesday" feeling floating about today – I know I am not alone in wishing for some nap time…some Mondays are just that much more Mondayish. Where's a George Costanza desk when you could really use one??
Of course, by Wednesday, it will be next month already, and into what mist has the first half of 2008 vanished, precisely? Ah, well, July will be a great month – after all, we get to celebrate all this wonderful summer stuff for the next 31 days: Blueberries Month and Air-Conditioning Appreciation Days; Grilling, Ice Cream, Horseradish, Hot Dog, and Bikini Month; and Women's Motorcycle and Nation Recreation & Parks Month. I see some real alignment of the stars going on here – and the earth is at aphelion on July 4th! ((The best thing about looking at the calendar occasionally is all the new stuff I learn. Check out aphelion here if you don't know it already. Although this article refers to the year 2001, aphelion is occuring on July 4th again in 2008 according to the Navy.))
In addition to celebrating our nation's independence this Friday, there are a plethora of special days this month. Let me just mention the one which, perhaps, holds the most significance for the human race: Chocolate Day, July 7th. Never mind national or international chocolate day or any of the varietal chocolate days. I find the simple Chocolate Day to be preeminent, expressed preeminently in the fudge state of being. It comes long before Cow Appreciation and even Walk on Stilts days.
The United States is the only country with a known birthday. ~ James G. Blaine
You have to love a nation that celebrates its independence every July 4, not with a parade of guns, tanks, and soldiers who file by the White House in a show of strength and muscle, but with family picnics where kids throw Frisbees, the potato salad gets iffy, and the flies die from happiness. You may think you have overeaten, but it is patriotism. ~ Erma Bombeck
We welcome a visit by Uncle Sam to the store this weekend. He will be handing out American flags to our guests, and reminding us of the hard-won freedom our nation cherishes and celebrates on Independence Day.

TOKYO, Sep 21 (Reuters) Japanese stocks are likely to open lower on Friday with Toyota Motor Corp and other exporters sold on a fall on Wall Street and the yen's gain against the dollar.
Among stocks expected to grab the market's attention are Sharp Corp and Pioneer Corp.
The Japanese consumer electronics makers said on Thursday Sharp will acquire a 14.3 percent stake in Pioneer to form an alliance to jointly develop the next-generation DVD players, car electronics and displays.
''Given a lack of particular trading leads, the Tokyo market is likely to move lower following a fall in Wall Street and the yen's gain against the dollar,'' said Yutaka Miura, senior technical analyst at Shinko Securities.
''Stocks are likely to be sold across the board ahead of the three-day weekend, but energy and other natural resources shares, including trading houses, may gain.
Oil surged to a record $84 a barrel on Thursday as companies shut Gulf of Mexico output on forecasts a tropical depression churning through the region would become a storm. Gold prices were also high, hitting a 28-year high on Thursday .
U.S. stocks fell on Thursday as a weakened dollar and a surge in oil prices kindled fresh concerns about inflation, snuffing out a two-day rally that followed the Federal Reserve's deep interest cut.
The Dow Jones industrial average was down 0.35 percent, the Standard&Poor's 500 Index fell 0.67 percent and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index was down 0.46 percent.
Analysts predict Tokyo's benchmark Nikkei average will move between 16,100 and 16,500 on Friday after gaining 0.2 percent in Thursday's session to 16,413.79.
Nikkei futures traded in Chicago finished at 16,215 on Thursday, 165 points lower than the Osaka close, indicating a lower opening in Tokyo.
The dollar was around 114.60 yen against 114.30 yen in late New York trade.
STOCKS TO WATCH -- Sharp Corp, Pioneer Corp Japanese electronics maker Sharp Corp will buy about $357 million worth of new shares from Pioneer Corp and work with its struggling rival in development of DVD players, car electronics and displays.
Pioneer said it would issue 30 million shares to Sharp, raising 41.4 billion yen ($357.2 million) and making Sharp its top shareholder with a stake of 14.3 percent. Sharp, in turn, will allot 10 million of its existing shares to Pioneer for 19.7 billion yen.
-- Mitsui Fudosan Co, Imperial Hotel Ltd Mitsui Fudosan is in the final stages of talks to acquire a 33 percent stake in Imperial Hotel Ltd from transit services provider Kokusai Kogyo Co for about 90 billion yen, the Nikkei business daily reported on Friday.

-- Sony Corp Sony Corp's game unit said it was fairly confident of doubling shipments of PlayStation 3 game consoles to 11 million in the year to March, and may buy more software firms to boost demand for its console.
Sony also said on Thursday it would postpone the launch of the ''Home'' virtual community service for its PlayStation 3 game console to early next year.
-- Bic Camera Inc, Best Denki Co Electronics retailer Bic Camera said on Thursday it will spend some 5.7 billion yen to become rival Best Denki Co. top shareholder with a 9.9 percent stake in terms of voting rights.

Senators fault the Justice Department for its acceptance of a $355 million settlement between the agency and Bank of America over alleged mortgage lending bias by the banks Countrywide Financial Corporation subsidiary. The lawmakers on the Judiciary Committee argue that payments going to some borrowers arent enough to remedy damages.
The settlement focuses on race, alleging that some black and Hispanic borrowers between 2004 and 2008 were charged higher interest rates and fees because of their race, not because of their credit history or ability to pay the premiums. The pact also alleges that minority borrowers with strong credit were targeted and steered into subprime loans when similarly qualified white borrowers were awarded prime loans.
Lawmakers took out their ire on Thomas Perez, assistant attorney general of the DOJs civil rights division. Perez acknowledges the shortcomings in the settlement, explaining it was not a home run, but he defends the move saying the DOJ has set up a task force to investigate and pursue illegal financial activity as a result.
That explanation doesnt sit will with Sen. Charles Grassley (R-IA), the panels ranking Republican. The departments message is crime does pay, Grassley says. Light settlements and no prosecutions not only do not deter. They invite crimes of this sort to occur against similar future victims,
Grassley addresses the estimated average settlement of $1,700 per victim among the more than 200,000 blacks and Hispanics involved in the settlement.
Perez responds that banks complain the DOJ is too hard on them, explaining that the goal of the Countrywide pact, which he says could grant some victims tens of thousands of dollars, was to maximize the amount that goes directly to victims
When asked by Grassley why the settlement doesnt include removal of executives who knew of illegal practices at the banks, Perez answers, Thats an idea worth considering.
As part of the settlement, borrowers who were victims of higher fees will receive at least $700 but no more than $2,000, while borrowers who were steered into expensive subprime loans will receive considerably more depending on a case-by-case analysis of what they would have saved in a lower interest rate loan.

Betroffenheit Offers Relentless Sorrow, Unending Artistry
March 14, 2017
The Canadian dance-theater piece with the German title Betroffenheit, a collaboration between choreographer Crystal Pite's Kidd Pivot troupe and Jonathon Young's theatrical group, Electric Company, achieves the near-impossible: It presents an inexplicable, grim, and confounding tragedy without making its audience want to leave.
"Betroffenheit," which has been translated as shock, or bewilderment, or impact, is a good word for what actor Young, onstage as the narrator, experienced when his daughter, niece, and nephew were killed in a fire at a vacation cabin in 2009. Presented by Cal Performances last Friday and Saturday at Zellerbach Hall, it uniquely combines despair and hope, mingling language and dance, of course, but also pathos and humor, stagecraft and simplicity, sound and silence, darkness and light.
The show, which your reviewer saw Friday, is divided into two parts. Part one is a bizarre drama-dance; part two, equally dramatic, is more predominantly dance. The piece opens in a barren, grayish room with harsh lighting. Young arrives and we hear via voiceover — lip-synched by Young and the five other performers — the horrible story of the fire, the shock, the exclamation "Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God!," the questions from others and himself about whether he was responsible, and advice from someone — a lawyer, perhaps — to say nothing. It all becomes an endless, alarming audio and gestural loop from which neither he nor we can escape. We seem to be caught up in what has popularly and almost glibly become compressed into the words post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD.
And how does one get past that? Badly. He is trapped and so are we, in a storm of dance (burlesques of tap, Broadway, salsa) and theater; a cheesy emcee offering useless distractions — commedia dell'arte, minipuppets — that bring up everything he's trying to forget.
Young's character, via the other dancers arriving onstage, hears and tries the talking cure, drugs, alcohol, and the notion of simply trying to leave his sorrow behind and start anew. It is a bizarre cocktail of humor and despair (the dialogue with the psychiatrist is particularly wry), concern, suggestions, trial and withering error.
How can we watch? How can we look away? The conundrum owes itself to an extraordinary cast of dancers who can act with every fiber of their bodies: the brilliant, amazingly liquid-limbed Jermaine Spivey, as Young's alter ego; Tiffany Tregarthen, as a clown figure of conscience both funny and menacing; Bryan Arias, David Raymond, and Cindy Salgado. Young is credited as the writer, Pite as choreographer and director. Set design is by Jay Gower Taylor, lighting design by Tom Visser, costume design by Nancy Bryant.
That dismal room is another character, as we see in part two. It shows up again with all its features, doors, furniture, and fixtures imprinted on a white sheet, thrust forward upon us almost as a banner. It's a ghostly reminder of the nature of PTSD, this prison with no real escape. The dancers, now in dancewear rather than streetwear, in bleak shades of gray, move supportively and sometimes combatively in stunning, contemporary barefoot form that owes much to European modern-dance traditions, particularly Nederlands Dans Theater, where Pite is an associate artist.
The despair continues, expressed through the contours of the bodies as they catch the dim light. The purity of their dancing is a breather from the oppressive energy of part one, and afterward, when Young returns to the stage and his confreres resume their first-act garb, something feels different. There is a surcease, a change in the pulse — onstage and in the house.
There are no universal answers or cures to surviving inexplicable and unrelenting tragedy, loss, and terror. All we can draw from Betroffenheit is that art, which has allowed Young and Pite to grapple so bravely with the questions, may also embody the answers.

Single Point Interface for Data Analysis in Wireless Sensor Networks
Today, across a wide variety of areas, huge datasets are being collected and accumulated at a very high pace. The datasets addressed by individual applications are very often heterogeneous and geographically distributed, and are used by the communities of 2users, which are often large and also geographically scattered. Major challenges are involved in the efficient and reliable storage, fast processing, cleaning and extracting descriptive and predictive knowledge from this great mass of data. In this paper, the authors describe architecture of single point interface for data analysis meant for different applications of wireless sensor networks.

Those same legends speak of a final reckoning, when Caine and his mad children will rise from slumber and consume all the undead. Vampires call this time Gehenna. For the vampire Beckett, a researcher among the undead, it means one last shot at understanding the mysteries of the get of Caine—and at outrunning his
own sins. Vampire: Gehenna, the Final Night is the first act of the Time of Judgment, telling the story of a wide-ranging Armageddon among the supernatural entities of the World of Darkness

Taught by Thomas Childers
University of Pennsylvania
Ph.D., Harvard University
This course examines one of the greatest conflicts in human history, World War II. Between 1937 and 1945, 55 million people perished. It was a series of interrelated conflicts; no continent was left untouched, no ocean or sea unaffected.
In short, World War II defined an epoch in human history, an epoch from which we are beginning to emerge, but an epoch with stains that will not fade.
More than half a century later, pressing questions about this war remain, and this course addresses them:
For more than two decades, Professor Thomas Childers has taught history at the University of Pennsylvania, where students consistently rank him as one of the best teachers on campus.
He is widely published on modern Germany and World War II. Dr. Childers is now at work on a trilogy about the war. Volume I,
Wings of Morning, was praised by
The Washington Post as "a powerful and unselfconsciously beautiful book."
The Origins of World War II (Lectures 1–4)
World War I led to the Second in important ways. We examine the controversial Treaty of Versailles and the international security system that its framers envisioned, and we analyze the reasons for its failure.
We dissect Adolf Hitler's conception of foreign policy, his domestic and international objectives, and the means he used to pursue his aims.
We also address the failure of France, Great Britain, and the United States to counter Hitler's attempts to destroy the Treaty of Versailles. Did their still-vivid memories of the horrors of World War I deter them? This failure set the stage for overt Nazi aggression in 1939.
The Beginning of the War in Europe: 1939–1941 (Lectures 5–11)
In these lectures we study:
The Beginning of the War in the Pacific (Lectures 11–14)
We analyze the dilemmas confronting Japanese policy makers in the years leading to their assault on European colonial possessions in Asia and on Pearl Harbor.
We examine the planning for the attack on Pearl Harbor, the reasons for its success, and the American response.
We assess Japanese strength at its high-water mark. Then we turn to the two decisive American victories that changed the Pacific war: the naval battle at Midway and the long, bloody land campaign for Guadalcanal.
The War in Europe: Turning Points (Lectures 14–17)
We examine the Anglo-American campaigns in North Africa between 1940 and 1942 and the invasions of Sicily and Italy in 1943. These victories were controversial: As Stalin complained, and as the Americans agreed, the campaigns delayed the long-awaited invasion of northwestern Europe.
We study the Battle of Stalingrad in 1942–43, the turning point of the war on the Eastern Front, the reasons for the failure of Hitler's plans in the Soviet Union, and the remarkable rebound of the Red Army.
Western Europe (Lectures 18–20)
Three lectures focus on the planning for D-Day—the course of events on June 6, 1944, and the unexpectedly long campaign in Normandy.
We examine German defensive schemes on the Western Front, the liberation of Paris, the controversy over Operation Market Garden, and finally the massive German counteroffensive in the Ardennes—the Battle of the Bulge—in December 1944.
The War in the Pacific: The Advance toward Japan (Lectures 21–23)
We shift our focus again to events in the Pacific Theater. We examine the two methods of approach to Japan chosen by American strategists—through the southwestern Pacific and through the central Pacific—and the implications of their strategy. We then consider the events on those two approaches.
We analyze, in the southwestern Pacific, the Battle of Leyte Gulf, the gigantic naval engagement in the southwest in October 1944, and General MacArthur's subsequent invasion of the Philippines.
Next we follow Admiral Nimitz's relentless advance through the Central Pacific, the "island-hopping strategy," and the climactic battles of Iwo Jima and Okinawa.
A War Unlike All Others (Lectures 24–25)
Two lectures pause the narrative of events to examine two features of World War II that distinguish it from previous conflicts and place its terrifying stamp on the entire era:
The Home Front in America (Lectures 26–27)
We study the creation of the U.S. Armed Forces (one of the most astonishing accomplishments of World War II). And we look at the day-to-day life of a new phenomenon—the GI, how he was fed, entertained, and equipped.
We also examine the American economic miracle, the creation of the mammoth wartime economy, the influx of women into the labor force, and the social tensions that emerged during the war, especially the racial problems that led to riots in Detroit, Philadelphia, and other cities.
And we will examine the paranoia that led to the internment of Japanese Americans.
The Race to the Bitter End (Lectures 28–30)
We study the "race" between the Red Army and the Western Allies to reach Berlin and the American air assault against Japan, which culminated in the use of nuclear weapons.
We give special attention to Truman's decision to use the bomb.
The course concludes by assessing the historical significance of the war and its colossal human toll.

WOOD RIVER — The Wood River Police Department on Thursday warned the public of another round of scam artists attempting to prey on area citizens.
"It has been reported that several residents have received calls from subjects identifying themselves as IRS agents threatening legal action," The department posted on its Facebook page. "These are fraudulent calls, the IRS does not reach out to citizens in this fashion. If you receive these calls do not give any of your personal information."
A concerned citizen who called the Telegraph said she'd been called by the likely-scammers at least three times, and she knew many other people who'd recently been called.
She provided the number she was instructed to call — a 206 area code. When a Telegraph reporter called it, a man with a thick foreign accent answered the phone, identifying himself as an IRS agent. He told the reporter they had to pay money, or go to jail — but if they did pay, he'd give them a "ticket to paradise" and then hung up.
The reporter called the number back several more times and spoke with at least three different people, one of them a woman who instructed the reporter to go to the bank and withdrawal all their cash, before hanging up.

Bob Dylan has unveiled his new single "My One and Only Love," another Sinatra-popularized classic from Dylan's upcoming triple-LP of standards, Triplicate.
Like Triplicate's first single "I Could Have Told You," the smoky, sentimental "My One and Only Love" appears on the collection's first LP, dubbed 'Til the Sun Goes Down.
"I am finding these great songs to be a tremendous source of inspiration that has led me to one of my most satisfying periods in the studio," Dylan said of his new album, due out March 31st. "I've hit upon new ways to uncover and interpret these songs that are right in line with the best recordings of my own songs, and my band and I really seemed to hit our stride on every level with Triplicate."
Frank Sinatra recorded "My One and Only Love" in 1953 as the B-side to his hit "I've Got the World on a String." The Guy Wood/Robert Mellin-penned song became a jazz standard soon after, with John Coltrane, Sonny Rollins and Oscar Peterson among those who covered the track. Sting, Rod Stewart and Paul McCartney have also tackled "My One and Only Love."
Each of the three volumes – 'Til the Sun Goes Down, Devil Dolls and Comin' Home Late – feature 10 thematically connected songs. While Sinatra, the focus of Dylan's previous Shadows in the Night and Fallen Angels, is well represented on Triplicate, the 3-LP delves more deeply into the great American songbook, including classics like Herman Hupfeld's "As Time Goes By" (made famous from Casablanca), Hoagy Carmichael's "Stardust" and Irving Berlin's "How Deep Is the Ocean?"

Thoroughly enjoyable Columbia Valley Riesling. Very crisp, clean, refreshing and slightly tart. Also one of very few certified organic and no sulfites added white wines, let alone Rieslings, I've come across. Very reasonably priced. I believe it was around $15 for this 750ML bottle.

Nuclear Computer Virus Plays AC/DC At Full Volume
A nuclear facility in Iran has been targeted by a virus which plays AC/DC at full volume. What better track than "Thunderstruck"?
A computer virus that targeted nuclear computers in Iran has had the unusual side-effect of playing AC/DC tracks at full volume.
A letter from Finnish computer security firm F-Secure says they received a series of emails from nuclear research facilities there (via Gawker), including one which said this:
"I am writing you to inform you that our nuclear program has once again been compromised and attacked by a new worm with exploits which have shut down our automation network.
"There was also some music playing randomly on several of the workstations during the middle of the night with the volume maxed out. I believe it was playing 'Thunderstruck' by AC/DC."
Viruses targeting Iranian nuclear facilities are not new. The US government recently worked in conjunction with Israel to develop software that would spy on Iranian computer networks in secret, but were somewhat humiliated when security experts uncovered the source of the virus.
In other news, Classic Rock cites an Australian tour operator who found that great white sharks seem to like the band. The operator claims the sharks would swim closer to the boat when their music was playing.
If you could target computers with an AC/DC song, which would it be? Let us know in the comments.

Breaking The Flow: Is The Circulation Hive a Great idea?
Bee Hive Kits
It s fab, it s new, and also the honey flows directly into the container. It s so easy.
But after that, powdered split second potato is simple, also. Does that make it a smart idea?
Despite my mission to concentrate on positivistic messages of change, at Milkwood we ve got a charter of forthright.
As well as to call yet another plastic beehive enhancement which does not profit the but just the beekeeper what it is.
We ve seen a lot (like, a GREAT DEAL) of media regarding the Flow Hive in this recently and after a few hundred questions about what we consider it, we believed we d spell it out.
The basic vital organs of the Circulation Hive system seem to be collections of plastic half-built comb, which encounter each other, and which the bees then complete off and attach up, loaded with honey, and cap.
When the beekeeper is all set, they transform a key, the 2 plastic hive foundations split apart, the honey moves out down a stations as well as out a spout, into the containers supplied here.
Is it helpful for the backyard beekeeper looking for a trophy moment? Hell yeah.
The effect of the honey showering out looks excellent, and has caught creativities global.
CONSERVE THE . Because anything (like, anything) that pertains to bees, or that makes use of , benefits the . ?
De hecho, no. Not so much.
Bees really want to construct their very own wax comb. It s part of the bee superoganism. The wax is essentially developed from their physical bodies.
The comb is the bee s house, their interaction system (which doesn t work almost as well if it s made from plastic as opposed to bee-drawn wax, as gone over in Tautz), and works as a main organ.
The comb is the s womb it s where they increase their family.
And also offered a selection, do not want a pre-built plastic womb, house or pantry, any more than we would.
It s the due of to build comb.
That s not all.
The other worry we have with this tool is that it encourages + commemorates beekeeper-centric beekeeping, and also presumes that stewardship is entirely simple. It s about the punchline.
Is it great for the bees? Which cares. We ve got streaming honey.
Actually, this discussion is not almost the Circulation Hive.
What we re actually discussing below is the bigger, industrialised profit-driven approach to beekeeping (as exemplified by the langstroth hive layout), which places production above values + lasting bee health.
We now recognize that merely the laying of an egg is not in fact a sign of a poultry s happiness, health and wellness or moral treatment, neither is it an indication of the high quality of the egg.
We simply understand that, unless they re dead, hens have the tendency to lay eggs.
They may not be healthy and balanced eggs, or healthy and balanced chickens, but we ve got our eggs. We re all great?
Regardless of the truth that these eggs are created in a deeply unsanitary, un-ethical production line where the pets in inquiry can hardly survive, to the factor where they require regular chemical treatments to guarantee they wear t show up their toes completely.
On the other hand, in a pleased pastured poultry configuration, the poultries have just what they need light, air, worms, turf, business a warm bed, and also room to check out. Both the poultries, as well as the nutritional density of the eggs, are the better for it.
We all recognize this distinction, as well as that healthy and balanced poultries indicates healthy egg eaters, and also healthy ranches as well as environments.
Now take that analogy across to bees.
Do desire plastic structures, plastic organs, queen excluders, their combs cracked open down the center, on a regular basis, while still in the hive, and all the remainder? No, no they quite probably wear t.
Bees prefer natural wax comb that they attract themselves as well as revive when they choose; to have the queen wander the hive and lay as that colony needs for lasting resilience; and also for their hive to be sited in an irreversible, protected setup.
The major push-back versus natural beekeeping is the concept that anything that is bee-focussed is not as productive for the beekeeper, honey-wise.
With those goddarn satisfied spending all that energy and time building their own wax comb as well as doing points their preferred way, they re not investing as much time foraging + loading those cells with nectar for the beekeeper.
It s the same with poultries! If you place a poultry in a small cage and do not allow it relocate so that all it does is eat as well as lay.
We seem to be deciding as a culture, however, that for chickens, values may come before earnings.
That we d rather have eggs that set you back more (partly as a result of manufacturing being less-per-chicken), are a lot more vitamins and mineral dense and also are generated by healthier chickens.
Regardless of that a totally profit-driven design of egg manufacturing would certainly put all hens in battery ranches, we ve learned, as consumers, that there s more to egg production compared to merely creating eggs.
Everything is hooked up.
With bees and also honey, nevertheless, we wear t yet use that moral lens.
Plastic foundations that produce a dangerous hive atmosphere + that mark cell-size, dis-allowing the to breed drones throughout the hive which make certain hereditary diversity for the surrounding bee population? Great. Queen excluders? Bring it on.
Except that worldwide, honeybee populations say no.
No, really, they re not happy.
For a number of cumulative reasons, including profit-driven devastating beekeeping techniques, we re losing the bees.
You would certainly think that this varieties would certainly be at the top of our whole species listing in terms of guaranteeing honest and also bee-centric stewardship + design.
You would assume that we would be placing the wellness in the past, MEANS in the past, what works finest for us in terms of ultimate honey manufacturing.
Or what looks cool. Or something that gives us to attract honey directly from the hive using plastic structure + spouts.
I m sorry to be so blunt. actually. I know that numerous individuals available simply want to assist the , as well as that is incredible.
The truth of it is without bee-centric thinking, action, style + apicultura, we may not be able to save the .
And also if we continuously see bees and beekeeping as a trick or a system where honey harvest is extremely important and the health + demands of this extremely vital species are additional, we will be worthy of to shed them.
