Great Customer Service....
Par Love Clothes
de Mississauga
This is a follow-up to my previous post. (I was really cranky.. LOL).My unit was replaced within 48 hours and I've been using it every morning. The unit itself must be a 2.0 version as it seems to be much more durable and perhaps slightly "upgraded." Not sure though.I'm very happy with the service I received and very happy that I have a new Yumalite. I must also add that Customer Service was very receptive to the issues that I had with the first unit.That is a sign of a good company. Thanks Yumalite and thanks TSC.
Fell apart....... very poor quality.
I used this when I got it and it seemed to work. I took out the batteries, put it back in the drawstring sack and box and put it safely away for the Summer. I wanted to start using it again and so went to put batteries back in and that's when the nightmare started.DESIGNERS - First of all, if you're going to put the positive/negative battery direction on the unit, please make it legible. I put new AAA batteries and no matter what I did, they would not stay in the unit. I finally got the visor to close and it wouldn't work. Tried several times, to no avail. I was going to give up and call the 1-800 # as in the booklet that comes with the unit, but then the strap fell off one side. I went to put the strap back in, and a piece of the plastic fastening section broke off! Now what? I'm going to call the 1-800 # and see what kind of response I receive from Customer Service. Hopefully, it will be a good one.Will post a follow-up to this.Bottom line is this: great idea - very poor quality design and materials (and it's not inexpensive either).

I used the YumaLite first thing in the morning for the required number of days without any results. Disappointing but not for me.TSC shopper from Toronto

I am nicer!
Par grandmababycakes
de Niagara Falls ON
I have been curious about light therapy for a long time but knew I would never sit still in front of the panel for 20 minutes every morning. I love the Yuma. I put it on and then read the morning paper.I had an odd reaction at first. For the first 5 or 6 uses, the light so relaxed me that I fell asleep after about 10 minutes.After I woke up again, I had a nice calm energy for the day, not needing a nap.By the way, I have had 8 heart attacks and will do anything to improve my health. Poor health can be very demoralizing. Add winter blues to that and you have a perfect storm for depression. This device has helped to lift my spirits. I feel better.Don't forget that the brim is hinged and can be adjusted to shine into your eyes....not nearly as awful as that sounds. It is quite comfortable.
Not for me

Did not work for me.
Great technology but Needs Adjustments
Par MZHOLLAND
de VANCOUVER, BC
I needed no convincing about the light therapy, I have successfully used it, so when I saw this application of it, I wanted it right away. However, it needs some drastic redesigning, the headgear is very thigh and borders on causing a headache and I don't have a very big head. I have tried putting foam between the gear and my head, but that doesn't work if I loosen it, it falls off. It also presses so hard, it leaves an impression on my hair, so I can only use it in the AM before I wash and style my hair.. Further the visor part adjustment is so minimal, it really seems redundant. I am almost thinking of returning it.
Excellent Product
Par compulsive shopper
de Edmonton
I got my yumalite a couple of weeks ago and have been wearing it faithfully every morning. It is light and comfortable and I usually wear it for 30 minutes each day. I have sleep apnoea and combined with my C-PAP therapy I do feel more energetic and brighter in mood. I have already recommended it to a friend who suffers with fibromyalgia.
Fantastic Light Therapy
Par Diane no longer a SAD person
de Ottawa, ON
I have been putting off buying a light for years because I could not see myself making the time to sit in front of a light for 30 minutes. When I came across this light therapy in the form of a portable visor, I was sold. I purchased it and received it within a couple of days. I have had a remarkable decline in energy over the winter and got significant results within a couple of days. I don't need my afternoon sleep anymore and am actually getting things done around the house. Bye-bye winter blues .. never again!
uncomfortable for me!
Par Nocky
de Winnipeg
I bought this Yamalite only because it is portable, as I have already owned a table energy light therapy which I like.I have found Yamalite very uncomfortable for me to wear it (not more than 5 to 7 minutes). The lights, red or white,really bothered my eyes and I am afraid that I will trip one day, walking around with it on my head... Have not seen much difference after 1 week use! Returned it.
Amazing product
Par acbr66
de Burlington, Ontario
I've been battling SAD for most of my life, and although I do take supplements that help, there's no substitute for real sunshine. I've been so put off from buying an LED light for treatment both due to the pricing and that you have to sit idle for a period of time in front of it ('can't do it). I saw this on a recap of Dragon's Den last weekend and felt compelled to purchase one for the portability and the lower price point compared to a stationary model. After shopping around online I found this to be the best deal on TSC, both price wise and for customer satisifaction. It arrived nicely packaged this morning at my office and I quickly unwrapped it just to try it out. And it's simply crazy, I know - just 5 minutes with it on I could feel my mood instantly picking up. I am so looking forward to using this while I get ready for work in the morning!

IT's probably the best located hostel in town. Right besides the cathedral, walking distance from most of the landmarks and clubs. Safe place, easy to find, what else? :)

I slept in a 6 bed dorm and we couldn't open the window because the handle was gone. The room got very smelly soon. During the night we left the door wide open everytime one of us had to go to the bathroom to let some fresh air and oxygen in. The slatted frame of one upper bunkbed was damaged and I was glad, I didn't sleep in the bed below. I would have been worried that my roomate might crash down on me during the night. The atmosphere among the guests wasn't very pleasant when I was there

Cool and cozy hostel with an excellent location in the heart of the old town. Staff was nice and helpful. Only minus side in our opinion was the toilets and showers, there could be more of them and they were pretty unclean and damp, sewers blocked, no paper etc. Other than that good value for the money!

Cozy and nice place just by the square of the Cathedral. The staff were super-friendly and very helpful. There was not too much ambience as for a hostel, but thanks to that is not noisy at all. Showers were OK and the beds were comfortable - we slept well. However, some blinds to improve the sleeping quality would be a great asset.

Lovely place! Not for party people (a bit too quiet-ish) but as it was what we wanted, we can't say a bad word about it. Staff was helpful, the place was spotless clean. The bathroom may be a bit too small, but it works nicely if you are not that choosy. Overall impression was good. Recommended!

Windows XP ICS Internet Gateway
When using Windows XP Internet Connection Sharing (ICS, an ICS client computer can be used to remotely monitor and control the ICS server computer's Internet connection. This Internet Gateway feature is available on computers running Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows Millennium Edition or Windows XP that have been configured as an ICS client using XP's Network Setup Wizard. It isn't available if you've configured the clients manually.
If you're sharing an always-on DSL or cable modem connection, a client computer can enable or disable it. If you're sharing a dial-up connection, a client computer can connect or disconnect it, causing the ICS server computer to dial in or hang up. This can be a great convenience, since you don't have to go to the server computer to take these actions. But it can cause trouble if someone disables or disconnects the server's connection while other people are using the Internet.

When partygoers at a Pitt Meadows rave heard that two people were having sex in a field, a crowd quickly gathered and the cellphones and cameras came out.
There was everybody just taking pictures and videotaping it, Paige Morgan, 19, testified Tuesday in B.C. Provincial Court in Port Coquitlam.
Morgan was called as a witness at the trial of 21-year-old Dennis Warrington, who is charged with publishing and distributing child pornography.
Warrington is accused of posting to his Facebook page photos others took of sexual acts that took place between a 16-year-old girl and a young man at an outdoor rave in 2010. It is alleged that the acts, which did not include intercourse, were not consensual.
Warrington did not know the girl.
Morgan went to the rave with friends at around 9: 30 p.m. on Sept. 10, 2010. She was sober when she arrived, but she and her friends shared two bottles of vodka over the course of the evening as they socialized.
She said she knew most of the people at the party from school and from other events.
As Morgan and her friends stood outside a barn where a DJ was playing music, a male came up and told them that someone was having sex with a guy pretty much in the bush.
They went over and joined the crowd of onlookers.
So many people were taking pictures including four older men who were close to the couple that the flashes were like lightning.
Everyone was getting pictures of it, Morgan said.
Morgan said she just took a brief look at what was happening: I wasnt looking the entire time. It was kind of disturbing.
Soon after she walked up, the sex acts ended, Morgan said. The girl got up, dressed and walked away laughing and looking happy, according to Morgans police statement.
Morgan said the couple were not trying to hide what they were doing and it was her impression that the sex acts were consensual, based on watching and listening to the couple.
Morgan said she and her friends left the party a short time later and went to McDonalds. At the restaurant she saw the girl from the party. She said the girl was upset because she had lost her cellphone, but otherwise she seemed happy and like nothing was wrong.
A few days after the rave Morgan saw a photo of the girl - engaged in oral sex - on someones Facebook page. Morgan said photos were going around from a number of sources.
One of Morgans friends, Brittany Plamondon, was with her at the party. Plamondon is a friend of the young woman who was photographed.
She said she briefly saw what happened between the two people as she left the party. Her attention was drawn to what was happening because people were laughing.
It wasnt something I wanted to watch, she said.
The trial is expected to continue in January.

Brock Lesnar Retires after Loss to Alistair Overeem
| December 31, 2011 11:23 am |At UFC 141 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada, former UFC Champion Brock Lesnar announced his official retirement from the UFC after suffering his second straight loss, this time to former Strikeforce Heavyweight Champion Alistair Overeem. After taking several shots to the body and a final "K1 Kick" to the side, Lesnar fell to the ground in the first round ending his 3rd fight in the last 2 years.
Lesnar stated that he has had a rough 2 years suffering from his diverticulitis disease which required multiple surgeries as well as a large portion of his intestines being removed. He promised his wife and children that if he lost to Overeem, he would retire. If he had won, he promised to retire after his championship bout with UFC Heavyweight Champion Junior Dos Santos. Overeem is now set to faceoff for the UFC Heavyweight title against Junior Dos Santos at a future UFC Event.
Rumors are swirling that Lesnar may return to the WWE, but according to Dana White, Lesnar is retiring while under contract to the UFC. It remains to be seen if a deal and return will be worked out with the WWE.

UFC 137: GSP vs. Condit Fight Dropped From Card Due to Injury
| October 21, 2011 7:46 pm |First it was Nick Diaz vs. Georges St. Pierre for the Welterweight Title at UFC 137 in Las Vegas. Then Diaz failed to help promote his fight and was pulled from it and put into a non title fight with BJ Penn. UFC President Dana White then choose Carlos "The Killer" Condit as Diaz' replacement and declared that it would be Condit vs. GSP for the Welterweight Title. Well now it looks like UFC 137 will have to change their main event again.
Due to a knee injury sustained while training on October 18th, Georges St. Pierre has officially withdrawn from his fight with Carlos Condit. Dana White confirmed the news on his Official Twitter account.
Instead of replacing GSP in the main event title fight, the fight itself has been dropped from the card and will be rescheduled when GSP is able to train and compete. According to GSP's head trainer Firas Zahabi, GSP will be out at least a month, although the exact extent of the injury and recovery time is still unknown.
With GSP vs. Condit being dropped off the UFC 137 fight card, Nick Diaz vs. BJ Penn has been pushed into the main event spotlight. Despite being a main event, the fight will remain at 3 rounds as Dana White stated "they haven't trained for five rounds."
UFC 133 – Phil Davis Out Versus Rashad Evans
| July 13, 2011 1:29 am |According to sources, UFC Light Heavyweight contender, Phil Davis has suffered a left knee injury. Due to the injury, he will have to withdraw from his UFC 133 Co-Main Event match with former champion, Rashad Evans. Davis and Evans were scheduled to meet at UFC 133 on August 6th, but now the UFC is scrambling to find a replacement.
MMA Fighting writer, Mike Chiappetta reports Tito Ortiz was offered Davis' spot by Dana White but was turned down. Dana White confirmed this in a text to MMA Fighting. This would have been a rematch of the controversial Evans vs. Ortiz match in 2007, which gave Evans the win.
Speculation is that Ortiz (winner of his first fight in 5 years) turned down the spot due to insufficient time to prepare for the fight. The current name floating around as a replacement is Lyoto "The Dragon" Machida but nothing is confirmed at this point.
As of now, Rashad Evans remains oponentless. Should Evans remain on the UFC 133 card, whomever the opponent may be will also potentially suffer from a lack of preparation time.
UPDATE: According to Dana White and Tito Ortiz' Twitter Account, Tito Ortiz will in fact replace Phil Davis.
Strikeforce: Fedor Emelianenko vs. Dan Henderson 7/30/11
| July 12, 2011 12:15 pm |Strikeforce: Fedor Emelianenko vs. Dan Henderson, takes place July 30th, 2011 on Showtime. Will this be Fedor's last fight? Loser of 2 in a row in shocking fashion (tap out, doctor stoppage), Fedor prepares for another fight after strongly considering retirement.
Emelianenko returns to the cage to face Dan Henderson, if Emelianenko does not win, many expect him to retire. In his last fight with Antonio "Bigfoot" Silva, Emelianenko wilted in the second round as Silva passed to mount, Silva unleashed a furious ground-and-pound on Emelianenko that left him bloody and swollen. Emelianenko wanted the fight to continue, but his right eye had swollen so much that ringside doctors called a stop to the fight, claiming Emelianenko could not see.
Immediately after the fight, Emelianenko implied he may retire after losing 2 in a row. Through a translator he said, "Yes, maybe, it's the last time. Maybe it's high time. Thanks for everything. I spent a great beautiful long sport life. Maybe it's God's will." But after some time, it was clear that Emelianenko was speaking on emotion as he planned to fight again. But will a third loss in a row convince Emelianenko to retire? Or will a victory keep him going? We can only wait and see.
UFC Purchases Rival Promotion Strikeforce.
| March 12, 2011 12:49 pm |BREAKING NEWS: Dana White, UFC President, confirmed with MMAFighting.com that the parent company of UFC, Zuffa LLC, has purchased UFC's rival promotion Strikeforce. You can now add Strikeforce to the list of rivals that UFC has purchased after PRIDE and the WEC. Many fighters had heard rumblings of the purchase but were unaware of the validity of these rumors until today. White explained the purchase as an acquisition, not a merger and as part of UFC's goal to expand its talent world wide.
UFC President Dana White says at this time there will be not be a merger of rosters. Strikeforce talent will remain on its roster, separate from UFC's roster. Although some MMA fans will be disappointed because they will not see highly anticipated cross promotional matches, according to White. Strikeforce will continue to run with business as usual and as its own legal identity. Fighters, broadcast contracts and other employee contracts will not be change. Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker will also continue his relationship with the company and continue to run the day to day operations.
Update 3/14/11: Forza, LLC, a Subsidiary of Zuffa, LLC (company that owns UFC) has announced today, March 14th, 2011 that they have officially purchased Explosion Entertainments, LLC most commonly known as StrikeForce. Under this deal, all contracts will be continued to be honored by StrikeForce.

My latest from the June 18, 2012 Boston Globe
BARRINGTON, R.I. – Dana Quigley will never forget the route. A straight shot down 45th Street to St. Mary's Medical Center in West Palm Beach, Fla. Easy. Five minutes to reach his son, to see his best friend.
Whenever the phone rings at night in his West Palm Beach home, Quigley, the 2005 Champions Tour Player of the Year, jumps out of bed to answer. What if the kids are in trouble? At 1 a.m. last Dec. 1, a call woke the golfer dubbed "Iron Man,'' shoving him into a living nightmare.
Quigley answered. Silence on the other end. He texted Devon, his son, who was out that night at a friend's birthday party. You just pocket-dialed me, Quigley wrote. That's when the police called back.
"You need to get down here right away,'' the officer said.
"Well, how bad is it?'' Quigley responded.
"You just need to get down here."
Here meant St. Mary's. Less than two hours prior, Devon's BMW barreled into a semi-truck in Riviera Beach. Paramedics needed an hour to remove Devon from his car. Quigley was unable to identify his own son's swollen face. Doctors said the 27-year-old would not live, and put him in a medically induced coma. Quigley went to the parking lot with his wife, Angie, where they cried.
The morning after the accident, two pastor friends visited Quigley at home. Devon's not even your son, they said. He's God's son. And you just have to accept that.
"It got me over the hump that morning,'' said Quigley, who on Monday and Tuesday will make his 11th appearance at the CVS Caremark Charity Classic, Devon's favorite tournament, here at Rhode Island Country Club. "I thought I'd be devastated. But I wasn't. I was actually calm and at peace.''
Three weeks before the accident, Dana and Devon were baptized together. Together like when Devon caddied for his father on the Champions Tour, where Dana has won 11 tournaments. Together like their early-morning rounds at Bear Lake Country Club in West Palm Beach, where they played all day, every day.
"The saddest part of it all? I'm missing my best friend,'' said Quigley on Sunday, sporting a pink-striped polo with a "Devo Strong'' logo, complete with a heart and angel wings. "It's tough. But I know that God has a plan for him, and I'm willing to accept it.''
Quigley and his wife never visit the accident site. They drive by, but never look. Never went to the police station to see the totaled car, either. They focus all their energy on Devon, awoke from the coma after three or four months. The exact date is sketchy. Doctors didn't realize it until the Quigleys sent them video of Devon answering questions with his eyes.
Sunday was Father's Day, a day Dana Quigley, who was born in Lynnfield, usually spends on the road. Devon watched the US Open on television throughout the weekend. Dana returned to Rhode Island CC, where he used to caddie alongside his nephew, Brett.
"We're probably as close as any golfing family could be,'' said Brett, a PGA Tour player who will also be competing in the CVS Caremark Charity Classic. "Getting back on the course, Dana sees how strong a support group the golf community is. Everyone just wants to know what's going on, that they've been thinking about the whole family.''
Devon has regained total cognition. He will soon get hooked up with a computer. He might be able to text his father, the Iron Man who made 278 consecutive Champions Tour starts from 1997-2005. Dana anticipates a simple first message.
I love you.
"It's amazing,'' Dana said. "If you saw him, you would just swear he could get up and walk away. The doctors are amazed at what physical shape his body is in.''
One day, beside Devon's bed, Dana issued a proclamation. When we're back playing golf, he said, I will finally outhit you, something Devon used to do by 50 yards before the crash.
"Look up if you think I'll outhit you,'' Dana said.
"You still think you can outhit me?''
Devon Quigley's eyes shot straight up.

Buckle up for the ride of a lifetime with iRace
Lotus F1 Team's iRace experience is a once in a lifetime opportunity to experience the power, performance and technology of a real Formula 1 car.
The iRace programme comprises of three packages:
- iRace: Experience driving a Formula 1 car and feel what it is like to be a Grand Prix driver for a day.
- iRace+: For the more experienced driver, the iRace+ package offers a similar programme as iRace with more drive time in the Formula 1 car.
- iRace Formula Renault: A more economical alternative to iRace with guests able to experience a day's driving Formula Renault single seaters.
All iRace experiences are held at the Circuit Paul Ricard in the south of France and include:
- Airport transfers, dinner & one nights accommodation
- Formula Renault 2.0 driving sessions
- Formula 1 car driving sessions*
- 2-seater Formula 1 passenger ride*
- Instruction and data analysis with Lotus F1 Team race engineers & telemetry analysis
- Race driver physiotherapy session
- End-of-day cocktails & gift pack
*Not included in iRace Formula Renault
For more information, contact email@example.com
F. Renault
iRace Formula Renault allows guests to enjoy the benefits of iRace and actively experience driving a racing car. All drivers enjoy the same tuition, instruction and service that every other iRace participant does, with the Formula Renault 2.0 cars giving all drivers the race car thrill and sensation.
Upon arrival at the circuit, a track recce is completed followed by safety briefing with Lotus F1 Team instructors. Each guest is then fitted with their fully branded Lotus F1 Team suit, gloves, boots and helmet. After being briefed by engineers and learning the track, guests will experience the Formula Renault 2.0. The experience includes four 20-minute Formula Renault 2.0 sessions, two in the morning and two in the afternoon.
Following the enthralling experience behind the wheel, drivers can then examine their telemetry analysis with the team instructors. A physiotherapy session is also undertaken to help the body recover from the extreme pressure that is put on the body from race car driving and for that real racing driver experience.
Please note that bookings can only be accepted for a minimum group of 12x guests.
The iRace+ package offers a similar programme as iRace with more Formula 1 car driving time. iRace+ is for those drivers who are already experienced in driving a racing car and can therefore maximise their time on track. However, due to the fact that some drivers may not be as used to the cars as others, the iRace instructors will still give a full safety briefing on the car and track.
In order to re-introduce race car driving, a short session is scheduled in the Formula Renault 2.0 cars. The second and third sessions are then devoted to driving the Formula 1 car. With less people and more time dedicated to driving the Formula 1 car, each driver has up to 6 laps available per session.
As always with iRace, a physiotherapy session is undertaken and telemetry data studied between and after sessions. Data can be compared between other iRace drivers as well as the team race drivers, with improvements to technique subsequently made.

I made the three tops especially for my mom. I will meet her on the vacations very soon, so I wanted to make something nice for her to wear. I just hope that she will like it and the tops will fit her nicely.
The first and second top based on Burdastyle Lace Dress 04/2013 size 44 with adjustment on the waist and hips area. And the third top based on Burdastyle Printed Tunic (plus size) 01/2013 size 44, but I only used the upper and the sleeve pattern.
I sew the button on the back of each top and added sleeve tabs for all of them.
For more details on my blog,

Things are (sort of) back to normal around here now that we've made it through the holiday and four surprise birthday parties in one week! Yes, you read that correctly: four. surprise. parties. How we managed for them all to actually be surprises is beyond me, but the important thing is that everyone is happy and feels well-celebrated.
This, my friends, is what summer is all about: enjoying (or avoiding) the summer sun together, eating and drinking until our hearts are content, and spending time with the ones we love. Since we returned from our honeymoon, I've actually had more time to do just that, and it makes me so happy that life is finally coming to a more relaxed juncture, one where I can actually enjoy my day, rather than just rush through it to make it to the next one because I have so many things that need to be done.

Never saw the need to have one of these, until I needed one. Thankfully my hunting partner had one. Saved my hunting trip. Anyone who is shooting a "traditional" muzzleloader, should have one of these in their kit. You will be glad you did.
Cheap enough to throw in your kit, and if never use, then no big loss. But if needed, then in valueable.

Does anyone else feel like Obama got destroyed during the Debate.
I'm pretty sure everyone feels like that...because he did.
It just seems like Romney came across more aggressive and passionate. While Obama was defensive and not so passionate almost flat.
because there was no media to spin and portray either one of them for you.
I even commend the moderator for staying fairly neutral.
which he failed to do.Originally Posted by halfahardon
and he still doesn't have much to defend. he slipped up, was twitchy, was clearly defensive...even snapped at the moderator.
the role of government part was awesome.
Also, did anyone notice how many times Obama said "uh"
Plus lack of eye contact, Romney was staring at Obama, while Obama was too busy taking notes or looking elsewhere.
Dennis Miller posted on FB last night, "Hope an as$-kicking is covered under Obamacare.

Little late on this thread,
I feel like they were both complete garbage and if I was the moderator Id throw them both off the stage.
The fact that there are other legitimate candidates that legally should be entitled to be a part of the debate (such as Gary Johnson) and are blocked out is pitiful.

I work as a gardener in a large and beautiful garden in Fordcombe. Part of the garden is a wildflower meadow which is thronging with pollinating insects.
We realise that it is the end of the season now, but wonder if, next year, anyone would like to keep some beehives in the garden in exchange for some of the honey produced?
Ultimately I would like to learn how to look after a hive myself, but until I do, it seems a shame to waste such a nectar rich resource
Please contact: Fiona Abrahams at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Planned Courses for 2013:
Our aim this year will be to provide 2nd level and more advanced courses for beekeepers who have had bees for a few years. The programme includes courses aimed at supporting those putting themselves up for the important BBKA Basic Assessment and BBKA General Husbandry practicals. Additionally, rather than the rather random collection of courses on aspects of microscopy in beekeeping this year, in 2013 the plan is to offer a staged series of possibly 5 different courses from an introduction through to anatomy and dissection and pollen analysis.Some of the popular courses are to be repeated and some frequently requested courses are to be added in 2013.
These courses will be found on the website: http://ksrcbees.org.uk/ Click on Improvers.
Daniel Marsh has been keeping bees since 2009 and started a Beekeeping Blog in June 2010. Download his 'Tales from the Beehive' to see how his beekeeping has progressed over the last 3 years, by clicking on: 'Daniel'

Or are they bumblebees?
If the bees are furry like this picture beekeepers do not collect these. If you are allergic to bee stings or have young children we are able to re-locate them for £20 to cover petrol expenses, and up to £40 depending on the difficulty removing them. To help you decide clickon the link below.
Or for more detailed information click on: Bumblebees
If you are a new beekeeper and will be looking for bees to get started or have lost bees over the winter, we will be preparing a list of all the people who would take a swarm collected in 2014. As we are providing a swarm of unknown origin, we cannot guarantee the temperament of the bees collected. If you do find they are aggressive at every inspection, click on this link: aggressive bees to see how to deal with them. Also as the swarm is of unknown origin there could be disease present, so they should be treated for varroa and quarantined until they are confirmed disease free.
If you wish to go on this list for 2014, please send your details by email to me: John Farrow [swarm co-ordinator] at: email@example.com with the following information:
Name, address, daytime & evening telephone numbers.
There are six of us who collect swarms in the Sevenoaks and T.Wells area; so I will circulate this list to them and the collector who is nearest you will contact you when they have a swarm available.
The cost of the swarm is subject to agreement with the person offering the swarm and the cost will depend on the difficulty of collection, distance & time involved especially if a 2nd visit to collect the flying bees is involved.
Swarms need to be housed as soon as possible, so if you are unavailable when we call we will move onto the next one on our list.

On the morning of 9/11, I was about to hop in the shower when the phone rang and my husband told me it was one of the editors calling from The Chicago Sun-Times.
"How quickly can you get down here," he asked.
"I dunno, an hour, maybe," I said. "Why? What's up?"

A fascinating exchange recently took place in the pages of the Vatican's newspaper between the chief rabbi of Rome and the Vatican's chief representative to the Jewish people. Their conversation reflected just how far we've come in Christian-Jewish relations — but also how far we have yet to go.
