Entomology: UGA Honey Bee Program
In the News...
Spring means BEEKEEPING CLASSES
Around this time every year, the UGA Bee Lab gets a lot of inquiries about how to get started in beekeeping. While the University does not endorse any groups, products or services, the list below is offered as a helpful beginning point for starting your adventure:
A great book to begin with is Dr. Delaplane's "First Lessons in Beekeeping," which is available through the Bee Lab in Watkinsville for $15. We can always forward a copy to the Biological Sciences building on campus where you can pick it up in the Entomology office; you can also ask Dr. D sign it for you if he's in his office.
There are also great resources online. You could begin with our website: Bees, Beekeeping & Pollination. There are also some free videos by Dr. Delaplane on "A Year in the Life of an Apiary" and lots of other resources available on eXtension.org.
Join a local beekeeping club:
Attend the meetings of one or more local bee clubs. Arrive early and stay late to facilitate opportunities to mingle with beekeepers. The GBA website has a great map of clubs. Here are several clubs reasonably close to Athens:
- Eastern Piedmont Beekeepers, meets monthly on the first Monday at 7PM, Campbell Research Center, 1420 Experiment Station Rd., Watkinsville, GA 30677
- East Metro Beekeepers, meets the 4th Tuesday each Month at 6:30 P.M. at the Rockdale Co. Extension Office, 1400 Parker Rd., Conyers, GA 30012 Contact for more info: David Shipp, 770-843-0313, firstname.lastname@example.com
- Tri-county Beekeepers, next meeting is Monday, February 9th from 7:00 - 8:30pm at the Gillsville Baptist Church Fellowship Hall, 2595 Hwy. 323, Gillsville, GA 30543
- Gwinnett Beekeepers, Second Tuesday of Each Month, Hebron Church, 202 Hebron Church Rd, Dacula Ga 30019, Building A - 3rd Floor
- Oglethorpe County Beekeepers, third Monday each month at 7PM, Oglethorpe Co. Farm Bureau, 925 Athens Rd. (US 78), Crawford, GA 30630
Find a beekeeping class:
Unfortunately, the UGA Honey Bee Program does NOT offer classes to the public at the lab. We do offer a "Beginner Track" in our annual beekeeping conference (in conjunction with Young Harris College) in May, which you are welcome to attend - but it's not necessarily the best program for folks who just want some basic information to help decide whether or not to get into beekeeping. On the other hand, below is a list of what might be better options for more intimate, hands-on introductions:
- April 18, 2015 - Forsyth Beekeepers Club is offering a "hands-on" Beginners Beekeeping School at Dunn Farm from 9:00 am to 3:00 p.m. Cost: $40 (includes one-year club membership), call Hoyt 770-479-1731 for more info & directions.
- Sats, 9-May & 13-Jun-2015 - Cindy Ball's bee school series at Lazy-B-Farm in Statham, GA, has their next meeting (out of 6 total) coming up on from 9AM to 12PM. You can also join any remaining classes. Call Cindy at 770-289-2301 and check out the link above for more info. Cindy also has a support group (monthly conference calls) for women beekeepers that's free and could lead to some great relationships.
The Georgia Beekeepers Association also maintains an ongoing list of classes and events.
Delaplane & Berry Tapped to Lead Editing Effort
Keith Delaplane & Jennifer Berry were approached by Kim Flottum, Editor of Bee Culture Magazine, in 2013 to lead the editing effort for the next (42nd) edition of the popular beekeeping tome, "The ABC-XYZ of Bee Culture."
They subsequently engaged Philip Quinn to create an online, project management and reporting system to coordinate the massive undertaking, and began the search for other editors to share the responsibility for [1] reviewing the more than one thousand individual subject topics from the 2007 edition and [2] deciding which articles will be kept, which need to be rewritten, which will be discarded, and, finally, what additional pertinent topics have arisen in the last seven years that need to be added to keep the popular reference tome current and relevant.
In addition to Dr. Delaplane and Ms. Berry, the distinguished list of editors now includes Clarence Collison, Kim Flottum, Ann Harmon, and Jim Tew. The project management system went live (online) in August 2014, and the work progresses as the editors contact potential authors, make arrangements, set strategies, and update each other by posting their progress.
Among the many, exciting topical contributors who have confirmed are Charles Abramson, Dewey Caron, Yanping Chen, Sue Cobey, Bob Currie, Jamie Ellis, Rick Fell, MaryAnn Frazier, Tugrul Giray, Ernesto Guzmán-Novoa, Jeff Harris, Zachary Huang, David de Jong, Gene Kritsky, Wyatt Mangum, Eric Mussen, Jeff Pettis, Juliana Rangel-Posada, Diana Sammataro, John Skinner, Leellen Solter, Marla Spivak, Dave Tarpy, Jürgen Tautz, Tom Webster, and Mark Winston!
Lab buzzes during weekend of drone collections and queen inseminations
Sue Cobey, world-wide consultant on honey bee breeding, genetics and instrumental insemination, visited our UGA honey bee laboratory Thursday through Sunday (Jun 5-8, 2014).
The UGA staff was augmented by volunteers from the Forsyth County Beekeepers and Eastern Piedmont Beekeepers in order to accomplish the huge amount of work in just a few days.
Sue hails from a scenic island near Seattle, Washington. She holds dual posts at the University of California - Davis and Washington State University, as well as offers services as a private consultant. She regularly trains beekeepers, research scientists and their staff in honey bee insemination, bee breeding, and queen rearing techniques. She is also well known for her own closed-population breeding program of New World Carniolan bees.

When Governor Inslee signed the regional climate agreement last week, it included two policies he had already advocated publicly as part of the Climate Legislative Executive Workgroup (CLEW) process. It called for a cap-and-trade system and a low-carbon fuel standard (LCFS) which would require fuel to have less carbon per gallon than standard gasoline (among other things). Including both of these policies, however, makes it more expensive to reduce carbon emissions while doing nothing to increase those reductions.
As expected, Governor Inslee today signed the "Pacific Coast Action Plan on Climate and Energy" along with other West Coast leaders and it includes promises that contradict the spirit of Governor Inslee's own legislation and the analysis provided as part of that process.
The section on a "low-carbon fuel standard" is the best example of how this agreement is at odds with the approach laid out in the Governor's climate bill, 5802. It reads:
This morning, Governor Inslee will be signing a climate agreement with other west coast governors and the BC Premier. According to the Governor's office and press reports, the agreement will cover:
For the first time, Washington state is attempting to base its official climate policy on approaches that provide the greatest environmental benefit for every taxpayer dollar spent. Past efforts have done nothing to measure the actual climate impact or to prioritize the way tax money is used. As a result, Washington politicians have wasted huge amounts of money while yielding little or no benefit for the environment.
As part of Governor Inslee's climate workgroup, known as CLEW, for Climate Legislative Executive Workgroup, state officials are taking public comment about the future of climate policy in Washington. The state hired a consulting firm, SAIC, to issue a report on various strategies to reduce Washington state's carbon emissions.
This week, we will analyze that report and look at how we can get the greatest environmental benefit for every taxpayer dollar.
Updated below with reply from Department of Ecology
Last week, the State Department of Ecology announced a sole-source contract for $50,000 to study purchases of zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs). The announcement says the survey will...
describe new-car buyers' valuation of Zero Emission Vehicles (ZEV) and ZEV-enabling technologies, describe why people hold these intentions, and characterize the antecedents to these intentions, e.g., awareness, knowledge, motivations, and barriers toward purchasing ZEVs.
describe new-car buyers' valuation of Zero Emission Vehicles (ZEV) and ZEV-enabling technologies, describe why people hold these intentions, and characterize the antecedents to these intentions, e.g., awareness, knowledge, motivations, and barriers toward purchasing ZEVs.
This Thursday, a group called Responsible Choices Washington will host a debate about labeling of biotechnology crops, known popularly as GMOs, at the University of Washington's Center for Urban Horticulture. The choice of the venue is ironic.
Twelve years ago, eco-terrorists firebombed the University of Washington Center for Urban Horticulture. The reason, as evidenced by the spray paint left behind, was opposition to the research being done on the genetics of plants.
Step one of any twelve-step program is "admit you have a problem." Left-wing environmental groups like FUSE still aren't there. As a result, Washington state has wasted millions on failed climate policies and some seem determined to keep doing that.
This week, the Wall Street Journal is publishing four pieces I wrote addressing various aspects of energy and environment policy. You can read them all at the WSJ Experts page. There are some nice pieces by others as well, so it is worth a look at all of the articles.
Tonight, union and environmental activists are threatening to protest Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker's speech at our annual dinner. Such protests, of course, are long on rhythmic chanting and short on thoughtful argument.
It is notable, however, that the announcement of the protest encourages "environmental activists" to protest the Governor's "environment-damaging policies." So, here are five questions for environmental activists who decide to show up tonight.
Yesterday, a Yakima TV station reported that a small group was pushing the Yakima School District to put solar panels on the new Eisenhower High School. KNDO reported on the picketers:
Today, the Washington State Department of Commerce released its assessment of the Energy Freedom Program, created in 2006 to "promote public research and development in bioenergy." As part of the program the state loaned just over $10 million to four companies, in partnership with public entities, to generate biofuels and renewable energy. One company just began operations in July, but the other three have been operating for a few years now and are a useful guide to the failure of political efforts to create a "green" economy.
Are you serious about climate change? Do you think it is a policy worth addressing? How can we tell who is really serious from the everyday poseur who is simply engaging in public preening? Here is a simple test.
What do they think about solar panels?
Today, Diana Lloyd-Jones of Environment Washington pens an ode to solar panels, calling them the "wave of the future," and saying that if enough people supported solar panels "we could start a movement."
The U.S. Department of Energy yesterday released a report on "Impacts to the Energy Sector from Climatic Conditions." It notes "climate change is happening -- and the effects are already being felt across the country." The report examines how "decreasing water availability" and other impacts are harming energy production.
This claim caught my attention:
Here's a grab bag of stories to read while eating your burger, brat and steak tomorrow. It's what the Founding Fathers would want.
Using the Free Market to Save the Rhino
Here's a great (and moving) piece from NPR's Planet Money on a proposal to encourage the breeding of rhinos in an effort to flood the market with rhino horn (which grows back) and undermine poaching by driving prices down. At the current rate, poaching will cause a decline in the rhino population in 2016.

Officer Danny Fisher (Cena) gets the break of his career when he nabs terrorist Miles Jackson (Gillen). Unluckily for both, the perp's girlfriend is killed during the arrest. A year later, he escapes from jail, kidnaps Fisher's partner, Molly (Scott), and kickstarts a diabolical 12-step game of Simon Says.
Derivative it may be, but with its echoes of Speed, Lethal Weapon and Die Hard With A Vengeance, this is a welcome throwback for audiences raised on '90s action flicks — what they used to call "a pulse-pounding roller-coaster thrill-ride of a movie".

Thanks for the kind words Alex & Lillian. Glad to hear they arrived.
Yosemite is wonderful place to shoot, especially in Winter. You need to chase a storm if you want snow. I had a very difficult time getting the prints out as I ran out of Silver Nitrate & Ferric Oxalate after getting my exposure close to dialed in. That threw everything out of wack. And then my usually consistent relative humidity, here by the beach, was all over the map ( 25 to 50% ) which effects the contrast & exposure as well. So I have quite the stack of rejects, threw in the towel and made a bromoil for Lillian.

While chicken stands, gently mash tamarind with hot water in a bowl using your fingertips until pulp is softened, then force with a rubber spatula through a medium-mesh sieve into a small bowl, discarding solids. Pulse shallots, chiles, ginger, and turmeric with cumin and coriander in a food processor until finely chopped. Lightly smash lemongrass stalks with bottom of a heavy skillet.
Stir together coconut milk, tamarind purée, shallot mixture, lemongrass, galangal, and palm sugar in a 6- to 7-quart wide heavy pot. Add chicken and bring to a simmer over moderately high heat, stirring frequently, then reduce heat and gently simmer, partially covered, until very tender, 40 to 45 minutes. Transfer chicken with tongs to a bowl and simmer sauce, uncovered, stirring frequently, until thickened and reduced to about 4 cups, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand 5 minutes, then skim off any fat if desired. Discard lemongrass and season sauce with salt. Add chicken and stir to coat.
Cooks' note: Chicken can be made 2 days ahead and cooled completely in sauce, uncovered, then chilled, covered. Reheat over moderately low heat.

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. – March Madness is here for the Lipscomb men's basketball team as the fifth-seeded Bisons are set to take on No. 4 seed ETSU in the quarterfinals of the 2014 Atlantic Sun Conference Men's Basketball Championship on Tuesday night.
The 6 p.m. CT contest at the Mountain States Health Alliance Center will air on http://www.ASun.TV and be broadcast locally in the Nashville area on 94.9 Game 2 with Jonathan Seamon bringing all of the action over the air waves.
The eight-team tournament is being hosted around the league at the campus venue of the higher seed in a change from the format in 2013 that saw one location for the entire event.
A win on Tuesday night for the Bisons would mean either a Thursday trip to the semifinals to face No. 1 seed Florida Gulf Coast in Ft. Myers, Fla., or a return to the Music City to host Stetson on at Allen Arena.

Have a Happy 4th This Weekend and Don't Be Stupid
With a big 4th of July weekend upon us, remember to PLEASE don't drink and drive. I know that you know that drinking and driving is a terrible idea, but so does everyone else, yet DUI's continue to happen.
Last night, Phoenix Mercury guard and the WNBA's biggest star, Diana Taurasi, was cited for DUI last night after a game…STUPID.
Two nights ago, legendary wrestler "Rowdy" Roddy Piper was busted for DUI in Hollywood…STUPID
As you read this, NFL receiver Dante Stallworth is sitting in jail for DUI manslaughter…he drank, he drove, and he ran over a guy with his Bentley…KILLING HIM. Stallworth was well above the legal limit for blood alcohol content, and this is simply tragically STUPID.
I hate to be a downer, but as simple as this concept seems, people still don't seem to get it. Please don't drink and drive this weekend, but please drink and have a good time.
JJ Bagley | Friday, July 3, 2009
I just don't get this celebrity drunk driving. These people have more than enough money to be driven every time they even think they might be drinking, yet are still pulling this crap. I have one word for you "cab".
ErinJ | Friday, July 3, 2009
I'll be enjoying my drinkies from the comfort of my balcony with my motorcycle keys left safely on their hook. I've made it this far, I'd like to make it a little further. Have a good Fourth.

MAJMOON na balkanski turneji
Avantgardni post-rock avdiovizualni kolektiv Majmoon iz Munchena se ponovno odpravlja na turnejo po Balkanu v okviru katere bo med 11. – 18. aprilom 2015 obiskal Slovenijo, Hrvaško, BiH in Srbijo.
Majmoon že 11 let raziskuje možnosti eksperimentalnega post-rocka v formi avdiovizualne interakcije. Tisti, ki bolje poznajo njihovo ustvarjalno moč smatrajo Majmoon za umetniški projekt in ne le še eden od preštevilnih bendov. V dobrem desetletju je Majmoon z glasbo opremil večje število filmskih projektov, hkrati pa izdal tudi 6 albumov, med katerimi velja izpostaviti zlasti dolgometražec »Procedure in a Case of Breakdown« (bluNoise, 2012) ter jubilarno CD/DVD izdajo ob desetletnici zasedbe »Ten years of Riot and Thinking Of You..« (bluNoise, 2013). Njihova glasba se definira kot avdiovizualna harmonija trancea, rocka, noisa in avdiokaosa.

Vlasta Popić touring Balkans
Croatian post-punk trio Vlasta Popić started another tour through Balkans, on which they will perform in Serbia, Bulgaria, Turkey, Romania and Hungary. On tour Vlasta Popić will promote their new album »Kvadrat«, which was released on Moonlee Records in January 2015.
Musically Vlasta Popić may be related to quite a few artists such as Repetitor, Sonic Youth, Fugazi, Šarlo Akrobata, Nikki Louder, or even a bit of Bernays Propaganda and Karate. In any case, Vlasta Popić offers a nice mixture of genres that should satisfy a lot of broad and demanding musical tastes.

New album by Vlasta Popić – Kvadrat
Psychadelic post-punk trio Vlasta Popić released its second full-length album »Kvadrat« today, on 28th January 2015, for Moonlee Records. It is released in CD format as well as free download via Bandcamp. 12" vinyl will come out in March 2015 as a coproduction between Moonlee Records, Numavi Records from Austria and Vox Project from France.
Second album by croatian trio Vlasta Popić brings more of their beloved signature indie-punk-noise-nowave-pop expression, but this time with a darker, more sinister edge to it. The record sounds more ambitious, thought-out and coherent compared to the earlier release, and it does so by utilizing much dirtier, distorted and noisier playing and production. The combined female/male singalongs and shouts add true energy to occasionally melodic, oftentimes jangly atmosphere created by the underlying instrumental psychedelia. As far as similarities and influences go, "Kvadrat" may be related to quite a few artists such as Repetitor, Fugazi, Shellac, Nikki Louder, etc.
Live promotion of new Vlasta Popić album will happen on Thursday, 5th February 2015 in Gromka in Ljubljana, as a part of MENT Ljubljana – showcase festival & conference (4th-6th February 2015). It will be followed by bunch of shows in Slovenia & Croatia and Balkan tour in April:
5.2.2015 @ Ljubljana, Gromka – MENT Ljubljana (SI)
12.2.2015 @ Maribor, Gustaf – MARŠ 25 (SI)
20.2.2015 @ Murska Sobota, MIKK (SI)
21.2.2015 @ Kranj, Trainstation Squat (SI)
28.2.2015 @ Koprivnica, Kooglana (HR)
13.3.2015 @ Zagreb,Tvornica Kulture (HR)
27.3.2015 @ Varaždin, Green Bay (HR)
4.4.2015 @ Plovdiv, Petnoto (BG)
8.4.2015 @ Istanbul, Arkaoda (TR)
10.4.2015 @ Bucharest, Underworld (RO)
7.6.2015 @ Skopje, tba (MK)
10.7.2015 @ Bažant Pohoda Festival, Trenčin (SK)
"Ako nisam dobra" – new single from Vlasta Popić
End of the year is too often full of questioning about the passing year. Instead of moralising, Slovenian independent label Moonlee Records rather offers you first single »Ako nisam dobra« (And If I'm Not Good) from Croatian post-punk trio Vlasta Popić, whose new album »Kvadrat« will be released late January 2015. You can listen to loudy and noisy »Ako nisam dobra« on Moonlee Bandcamp profile, where it is available also for free download.
New album by Vlasta Popić entitled «Kvadrat» will be released late January 2015 on Moonlee Records as CD and 12" vinyl, as well as free download via Bandcamp. Vinyl will be released in coproduction with Numavi Records (Austria) and Vox Project (France).
Christmas-newyear's period is supposed to be the gifting time. But what if one wasn't good enough throughout the year and didn't deserve the gifts? F**k it, listen to »Ako nisam dobra«, given away by Moonlee Records, and bravely jump into 2015. Cheers!

Synchronizing data with the cloud has just become easier for Backbone.js developers thanks to the open source Backbone adapter for Windows Azure Mobile Data Service from Microsoft Open Technologies, Inc. Developers using the popular JavaScript framework Backbone.JS to structure their web apps now only need to add a couple values indicating the table name and location to offer their customers brand new experiences leveraging the cloud.
With Windows Azure Mobile Services, you can streamline common development tasks like structuring storage, integrating push notifications and configuring user authentication. Mobile Services fully supports Windows Store, Windows Phone 8, iOS, and Android development and are free for your first ten apps. The data service provides a straightforward way to store structured data in the cloud.
The Backbone adapter that MS Open Tech open sourced is for HTML apps. It overrides the backbone.sync method to make things work seamlessly with Backbone applications. Using the adapter is as simple as including a JavaScript file (in addition to the JavaScript file from the Windows Azure Mobile Data Service HTML library) in your Backbone application. Since the backbone.sync method is overrode, all restful calls to the server are intercepted and converted to the format that works with the Windows Azure Mobile Data Service.
A sample backbone collection would look like the following:
var People = Backbone.Collection.extend({ client: client, table: 'Table1', model: Person }); var people = new People(); var employee = people.create(data); people.fetch(conditions);
var People = Backbone.Collection.extend({ client: client, table: 'Table1', model: Person });
var people = new People(); var employee = people.create(data); people.fetch(conditions);
As shown in the example above, the only additional parameters that need to be added to the collection are:
All other operations such as create, update and fetch are like the usual Backbone operations.
The fetch operation can also take additional parameters to filter the required data to bring it to the browser. The options for filter can specify a 'skip', a 'take', or a 'where' clause. For detailed information, check out the README.md file.
To get started with Windows Azure Mobile Services, check out the Windows Azure portal.
You can find the Backbone adapter for Windows Azure Mobile Services project on our GitHub page.
Please let us know what you think commenting on this post or in the project, and do not hesitate to point us to your great web apps using Windows Azure Mobile Services!

In 2003, we made the decision to promote social responsibility and demonstrate a commitment to the principles of Fairtrade by selling a selection of Fairtrade products within our university shops. Professor David Eastwood, Vice-Chancellor "The University of Birmingham has proudly maintained its Fairtrade status consistently since 2003. Buying our food as ethically and sustainably as possible is very important to us as we feed around 20,000 students, staff and visitors to the University every week." What is Fairtrade? Fairtrade protects the livelihoods of small-scale producers from the developing world. It offers protection for their income against the financial pressures of international trade by guaranteeing them a fair price for their products. Premiums are also paid to the community - which means schools, hospitals and clean water. How do we support Fairtrade? Fairtrade foods are available for sale in all campus shops and they are used in all cafés, restaurants and bars on campus. Fairtrade products are served at all meetings hosted by the University and the Guild – and in all University and Guild management offices. We are committed to campaigning for increased Fairtrade consumption on campus. Our Fairtrade Steering Group meets regularly to discuss how we can increase sales.

How do you catch a muskie in early spring when the water's cold and the fish sluggish?
Or in the fall when temperatures are dropping? Or in summer when the water is hot?
Those questions require three different answers, and right now the third is the relevant one. Is hot water fishing tougher? Some anglers think so, and turn to Erie walleyes or lake largemouths during these months, but though summer muskies can be tricky, remember that hot water increases their metabolism and makes them hungry more often. They're seeking food more avidly than usual, and that's good for local anglers.
Clear Fork Reservoir, Leesville and Salt Fork Lake are probably the three top spots in the state for these huge predators, and trolling is, as always, the best way to take them in any lake that holds some. But remember this, muskies can catch anything that swims, so it's difficult to troll too fast. I talked to two anglers at Leesville two years ago in August who had taken three nice fish in a single day. How fast were they trolling? "Fast, really fast."
Veterans speculate that a lure zipping by attracts them much like a dog seeing a suddenly fleeing cat. But it's still important to alternate speeds, trying slow, then medium speeds, then fast. You never know what will interest a muskie on a given day, and all bases need to be covered.
I met two anglers at the Clear Fork marina last year who had refined trolling a further notch. They had a map of the lake bottom, readily available from the ODNR, and their first step was to start trolling with one handling the motor and the other watching the fish finder. Usually, muskies like to lie just above the thermocline now, so they looked for big blips on the screen and when a number turned up at one depth or another, set their lines to run at about that depth, and followed the map contour lines to ensure they stayed at about that depth, rather than venturing into five or six feet (wasted time) occasionally or straying off into deep water.
Moving in and out as they trolled to keep the lures near bottom, but close to where the fish were holding ensured they were at proper depth all the time, instead of occasionally. It paid off for that pair.
Some people just prefer casting to trolling, and that's fine. But in late July and August, you might spend some time casting steadily and some time "ripping," which is retrieving normally, then jerking your rod tip up and reeling as fast as possible, then back to slow again. It's a strenuous business, but it produces fish. Many a muskie might follow your lure casually and without much interest, then when it races away suddenly, strike almost by instinct. Casters should keep in mind that muskies are ambush fish, and they do like weed beds. Casting along the outside edges and in corridors is always a good move.
Here's a final thought try fishing for them at night a time or two over the next weeks. Muskies are out and hunting at night, nosing among the weeds, loafing around stumps and fallen timber, and if you can find a quiet night when the lake is almost mirror smooth, work these places with a big surface lure or spinnerbait. It's a spooky business that can get plenty lively when a 30 pounder explodes like a depth charge under your popper.
Dick Martin is a free-lance writer from Shelby. Reach him at email@example.com n Black bear sightings are becoming more common in Ohio with an estimate of between 40 to 100 bears living year around in the Buckeye state. Breeding usually occurs from June to mid-July. so the possibility of seeing a bear is highest during this time of year. Neighboring states have growing bear populations, and it's likely that black bears are moving into Ohio in search of new territory. Pennsylvania has a black bear population of approximately 17,000, while West Virginia has an estimated 8,000 to 10,000 black bears.
One of the best places in the country to do some birding is right here in Ohio. The August issue of Birder's World featured Killbuck Marsh Wildlife Area about 30 miles east of Mansfield as a top place to see waterfowl, nesting bald eagles, warblers, and marsh birds. In other issues, the magazine has called Lake Erie's Magee Marsh a top birding place as well as Pelee Island, this last particularly during bird migrations.
Hunters, hikers, birders, and others are being asked to keep their eyes peeled for the state's endangered timbered rattlesnake. The snake is one of Ohio's last remaining wilderness species. and they're disappearing. In the early 1800s, timber rattlers were found in at least 24 Ohio counties, but as a result of habitat destruction and human persecution, they today reside in only a few southern counties. If you encounter one, don't disturb it, but do report the sighting to the Division of Wildlife.

"And the question in my mind is how many additional American casualties is Saddam worth? And the answer is not very damned many. So I think we got it right, both when we decided to expel him from Kuwait, but also when the president made the decision that we'd achieved our objectives and we were not going to go get bogged down in the problems of trying to take over and govern Iraq." -- Dick "Flip-Flopping" Cheney, 1992
(Via Andrew Sullivan)
When you watch the debates tomorrow night, you may want to keep in mind a few of the
lies things that Dubya was kidding around about the last time he was trying to trick folks into believing he was "a man of his word".
In the 2000 debates, when oil prices had risen to about $32/barrel, Bush criticized the Clinton/Gore for not solving the problem...
BROWN: Let me follow up by asking what pressures --- specifically what pressures should be brought on OPEC...?
BUSH: Well, we've got good relations with a lot of members of OPEC. If the president does his job, the president will earn capital in the Middle East, and the president should have good standing with those nations. It's important for the president to explain, in clear terms, what high energy prices will not only do to our economy, but what high energy prices will do to the world economy.
It is in the Saudis' best interest for the price of oil to mellow out. It's not only in our country's best interests. It needs to be explained to them, it's in their best interests.
BROWN: Thank you.
BUSH: And I will do so. [emphasis added]
A man of his word? Oil hit $50/barrel yesterday. Still waiting for the jawboning to take effect. Or, in Bush's words, for the President to "do his job."
Are the citizens of Iraq better off with Saddam out of power? Conventional Wisdom offers a "theoretically, yes" to that question. But for the innocent citizens of Iraq, "maybe, maybe not." I keep hearing, from the few still trying to justify this "miscalculation" about all of "Saddam's mass graves". So I did some quick cursory math.
Since Saddam took over Iraq in 1979 through his ouster in 2003, he supposedly killed some 300,000 citizens (according to repeated Administration assertions). That's roughly 13,000 deaths per year.
In the short time since the U.S. invaded Iraq through today, we've killed about 20,000 of it's citizens (not including the 28,000 Iraqi military that the Pentagon reported as killed). That rate then is also roughly 13,000 deaths per year. A few more than Saddam's numbers actually. And if you add the military deaths to it, of course, then Bush seems to out-Saddam Saddam hands down when it comes to filling mass graves with Iraqi citizens.
In theory, of course, those number should go down as time moves on. Even though they are rapidly moving up as we speak. If the CIA's prediction is true, about civil war breaking out in Iraq --- a notion that seems to be well on it's way to reality according to all sources who happen to be in touch with said reality --- that number may not go down any time soon and will be probably continue to increase.
Why did we invade again? I know that Bush has given anywhere from 23 to 27 different justifications for it. But I don't believe any of them seem to be "operable" anymore, other than we invaded because "John Kerry is a flip-flopper". Or something.
Has it come to this? Doctored pictures on the world wide web's #1 news website in order to try and defeat and/or smear John Kerry?
Drudge has been running this uncredited photo since last night on his website a with the headline "KERRY ON ORANGE ALERT: SKIN TRANSITION ON EVE OF DEBATE"...
Drudge doesn't supply the source for the original photo and we he's run lifted and doctored photos before, as recently as during the Democratic Convention. However, an examination of other news photos from the same event on September 27th in Spring Green, WI, clearly shows Drudge's photo to be either phony or doctored.
This one is from Reuters...
Note the bald man to the right of Kerry is the same many on the left of Kerry in the doctored Drudge photo.
And this one also from Reuters...
And this one from AP where though Kerry looks a bit more tan, it's nothing like the one that Drudge is running...
Note the woman in red behind Kerry in both this and the doctored Drudge photo.
And just for good measure --- what a world --- here's an AP photo of Bush from September 24 --- undoctored --- but appearing rather orange himself...
I can't believe, frankly, with thousands dead, dying, injured, held captive and beheaded in Iraq and the largest budget deficit in the history of mankind in this country that we're wasting our time with this kind of bullshit. Such is the case of the world, I guess, when running against the "Anything to Win" man in the White House and his cronies in the Rightwing Smear Media.
(Special thanks to John Aravosis of the excellent AMERICABlog for posting this item for me over there while we were knocked out over here today!)
The latest poll in the Obama/Keyes senate race is amazing.
In a flat-out rejection of Republican hypocrisy by Illinois voters, Obama is trouncing the gay hating "family values" champ by 51 points amongst likely voters. He currently leads 68% to 17% in the poll that was taken before the news broke of Keyes' having a lesbian daughter, despite having denounced Mary Cheney as a "selfish hedonist" a few weeks ago because she is a gay.
Urgh. We got knocked out yesterday at the provider! No explanation other than "it should be back up in 15 minutes". Cut to: 30 hours later...Well, we were planning upgrades shortly anyway to, among other things, better handle all the traffic (via a different provider!). So finally, we went ahead and made the move.
Welcome back. But I apologize in any case for whatever foul-up occurred that drove me nuts, but was out of my control. It was maddening and a horrible time for it to have happened! Thanks for your hanging in there, and for your continued support.
I've got much to catch up on here...stay tuned.
So I'm watching Hannity & Colmes tonight and Hannity says something a bit surprising as he's "interviewing" Newt Gingrich while attempting (successfully) to smear both Kennedy and Kerry in the same fell swoop.
As he looks down at his notes, so I'm assuming he had time to plan this out, Hannity says to Gingrich about a Ted Kennedy speech today at George Washington University on the failures of Bush's Iraq policy:
...and then he moved on to something else. Hit-and-Run Smear Accomplished.
But was it a smear? Would Fox's bright, shining star and Rush's heir apparent, Sean Hannity, simply out and out lie like that? And risk the same firing that he's called upon CBS to do to Dan Rather? I replayed my video tape, and that's exactly what he had said. But the outrageous charge about Kennedy seemed odd to say the least, so I did some checking on the speech today to find out for sure.
At Senator Ted Kennedy's site, the text of today's speech is linked on the front page, and it contains this passage:
Seems pretty clear that Kennedy decidedly did not say what Hannity quoted him quite specifically as having said.
But this is the "Fair & Balanced" network! "America's News Channel of Political Record" as their ads say. Surely Hannity wouldn't make up such a quote and then claim that Kennedy --- and Kerry by extension, who's position Hannity equated with Kennedy's --- actually felt that way, would he?
Perhaps the text on Kennedy's site was the original text as planned, but he veered from the text as it was originally written. So I stopped by Hannity & Colmes site for more information. They didn't have a transcript of tonight's show yet, but they did have a link to what they called "Raw Data: Kennedy Speech on Iraq War" which has a paragraph similar to the one above, but curiously, it's missing the "cut and run" section entirely! Here's what they have:
Hmmm...did Fox have a different version of the speech? A transcript they took themselves perhaps during the actual presentation of the speech? Even so, there seemed nothing about "Those of us who would like to cut and run". There was nothing about either cutting or running in Fox News' transcript.
I kept looking, and finally found over at C-Span the video of the actual speech, as given by Ted Kennedy today.
Some of the text did veer slightly from the version on Kennedy's website. A word or two. But nothing like what either Hannity or the Fox News site described. Here's what Kennedy said verbatim (at 4:18 on the tape):
Are these guys that desperate to win that they'd just make stuff up out of whole cloth? Apparently so. We've been covering here John McCaslin of The Washington Times, the newspaper equivalent of "Fair and Balanced" Fox, who has been doing exactly that. And so does Hannity. Almost every day.
Please remember that this is the man who has been calling for criminal investigations in the CBS document matter, along with the resignation of Dan Rather virtually every day he's been on the air --- on both his radio and TV shows --- since that story originally aired.
Lesson: Sean Hannity will say anything, do anything, smear anybody and lie about anything to keep his man in office. And the good news for him and the America he claims to love? He gets to do it five nights a week on the country's most watched News channel. Period.
As a side note, I also watched Kennedy's Q&A after his speech, just to make sure the phrase that Hannity made up wasn't said there or something. I didn't see it. But I did see Kennedy ironically mention, about the Bush Team and their continued campaign of lies, distortions and smears about Kerry: "You don't expect this to be done at the presidential level. To mis-represent and distort your opponents positions."
Rely on it Senator.
Mr. Hannity, correct the "mistake" and apologize to Sen. Kennedy on the air the way you've insisted that Rather apology to Bush. Set the example, Mr. Hannity.
Please hold him to it, Mr. Colmes.
Sean Hannity - email@example.com
One of the points in John Kerry's plan for Iraq has been to call on America's allies to "share the burden". However, many of the pundits (from O'Reilly to Maher) have pointed out that it's a swell idea, but it may not be so easy to actually do. If with a new, smarter, less-arrogant, U.S. President. After all, why would France and Germany want to enter this ever increasing morass at this time?
It's a good point, but one which Kerry can dispell in one single policy initiative:
"Hire me, and I'll fire Halliburton"
With billions and billions of dollars worth of contracts then free for the competitive bidding, do you suppose France, Germany and all the others might want a taste of that action?
You bet they would. And all they'd need to do to be allowed into that bidding process is a commitment of troops and/or money for the effort. We could use both.
I know that quite a few Dems in high places read this blog from time to time. Perhaps somehow one of you can get this idea to Kerry before Thursday's foreign policy debate with Bush if he hasn't already thought about it.
Both firing Halliburton (and hey, they can still bid competitively if they want to!) and simply demonstrating how Allies could be brought into the effort in a single policy initiative would be enormously popular with the American people. It would also help win both the election, and the war at the same time.
Pass it on.
Yes, she's a lesbian. According to her own blog and that of her girlfriend. They both posted this picture on the internet as I understand it. I saw it at her girlfriend's site who also has a gay.com profile (with more Maya pics).
There's been much handwringing in the leftie blogosphere about this picture, and others from the series, and the idea of publicizing Maya's sexuality at all. She is, after all, a 19 year old girl who can't be blamed for being the daughter of a near-psychotically conservative Republican U.S. Senatorial candidate from
Maryland Illinois who recently called Dick Cheney's lesbian daughter a "selfish hedonist" because she was gay. Also, she was not outted by anyone other than herself on her own blog. Her Yahoo ID is "dangerousanjul". Indeed.
I too though, thought long and hard before blogging at all on this, and I believe it was finally this passage from Maya's rather moving blog that moved me to go ahead and jump in here:
And even if I am a charitable dyke I am still a dyke who KISSES GIRLS and especially with the gay marriage thing going on now that's at the front of their minds. So I think I might get back to find out they still don't like me and I won't have a college to go to.
Basically, this young girl describes having the gift of an education being held hostage from her by her parents because she is gay. I guess that's the "Compassionate Conservativism" we've heard so much about. Or would that be "Family Values"? (See chillinois' excellent chronical of many of today's events for more of those moving passages and other commentary from the 'sphere. The articles at Maya's girlfriend's blog --- who's mother seems to be similarly intolerant/cruel are also an object lesson in shame.)
That Maya has been pointing to her own blog for quite a while via her posts on a Keyes Campaign Message Group strikes me --- for all of my armchair psychiatry --- as a cry for help. Well, if America regains its senses and John Kerry is elected, perhaps as he likes to say "help is on the way".
One may note the suprising number of hard-right Conservatives with homosexuals in their immediate family (prominently Cheney's daughter, Gingrich's sister, now Keyes' daughter) and wonder how it is they manage to justify the hatred --- yes, hatred --- that they perpetuate on a daily basis. Through their words, their deeds, and their passive (and not so passive) tolerance for those that who oppress, deny, belittle, hurt, harm, hate and even advocate the murder of other humans solely on the basis of their sexual identities. All in the name of a few more votes.
Perhaps there is hope in this accidentally ironic thought of Alan Keyes from his recent hateful interview; "In the child, the two [parents] transcend their persons and unite together to become a new individual."
We can only hope.
They're on it. By my count that's about 6 new ads in the last 7 days. Keep firin', boys. The latest are "Doesn't Get It" and "Despicable". Go check 'em out.
The tenor of this whole race is getting absolutely testosteronical as Dubya might say. It's a shame the Bush Campaign has written into the debate rules that the candidates must not approach one another other than to shake hands. Once. Otherwise, this thing could still turn into fisticuffs to determine who is Macho Man Numero Uno. Glad to see Kerry though, necessarily, making up some lost ground on that count. Silly Kerry thought this would be about issues. Glad he's got that ridiculous notion out of the way.
While I look forward to his interview with Bush tonight (and for the next three!), I've had a few "No Spin" items spinning on my brain for a few days that I'd like to toss out.
A quick check of the Air America Radio website, would have told O'Reilly that they are on "32 Stations Nationwide" according to the banner headline on the front page of their site. After his statement the first day we could have been generous and called it a mistake. Repeating it verbatim the next day, however, was no mistake. It was just spin.
The answer (that the guest didn't have at hand) is Sean Hannity who lent his imprimatur to the Republican National Party by narrating videos for the GOP Convention website. I wrote O'Reilly to name the name, but so far, I haven't noticed any on-air corrections or condemnations for it. You can still hear Hannity at the GOPConvention website right here.
O'REILLY: I do. I think France has really hurt the USA, to be...
STEWART: Really?
O'REILLY: Yes, I do.
STEWART: More than like Saudi Arabia? You would advocate a boycott...
O'REILLY: No, I'm not going to say more than Saudi Arabia. But I'm saying we do a lot...
STEWART: So why not boycott them?
O'REILLY: France is supposed to be our friend.
...And he didn't have anymore to say on the matter as the subject was then changed. But Stewart makes an excellent point there. Why aren't all those ridiculous French Bashers out there calling for a boycott of products from Saudi Arabia --- who is also "supposed to be our friend" --- instead? $1.97 a gallon says you know the answer. Hypocrites.
The spin goes on...
If you've been following the tale of The Washington Times' John McCaslin, we have an update. (If you haven't, read the first item here, and our first update to it here)
McCaslin has now attempted to clarify his previous Correction (which was full of lies) to his original story (which was full of lies) by posting another "Correction" (of a sort) which proceeds to make the case still worse.
Why is it so hard for Republicans to simply say "I made a mistake"? Ya know, kinda the way that awful Dan Rather was able to do when he found problems in his report on the National Guard memos? The wingnuts, of course, continue to insist Rather should resign for his honest mistake while completely ignoring McCaslin/Washington Times' blatant and purposeful lies to smear Kerry. What else is new?
Today McCaslin continues to obfuscate and justify in a story that begins this way:
He then spends the rest of the ink explaining that somehow the quote
he made up that was given to him by King was not really so wrong because John Kerry probably felt that way even if he said something completely different at the time.
McCaslin never bothers to mention in his latest waffle --- which manages to out-Clinton even Clinton himself --- that in his original story which quoted Kerry saying that and more (all made up), that he'd admitted to having an actual video tape of the show he was "quoting" from. Apparently he didn't either bother to watch it before quoting from it, or he simply watched and decided to make up whatever he wanted anyway since he erroneously said that "no 'Crossfire' transcripts from 1997 are available". I guess that's what he was hoping.
So for a second day in a row now, McCaslin is blaming Peter King for his own triumphant journalistic failure or outright lie that he'd hoped he wouldn't get busted for.
As we pointed out, the original lie was picked up and run on Drudge (the #1 Website in the world) and dutifully spread from there by the rest of the Attack Monkey Media for at least 24 hours. Drudge has not bothered to run any of the "Corrections". Damage done. Mission still Accomplished.

If you look carefully at this screenshot, you may be able to find a subtle hint as to who "The Terrorists" actually support!
That, of course, would be political satire/comedy even though there is plenty to support the general premise of the commentary. What isn't satire nor comedy, is when a sitting "Vice-President" of the United States, the Speaker of the House of Representatives and even the "President" himself indicate such a sentiment and/or out-and-out state such a notion as fact when it concerns their opponents. And of course to their enternal shame, they have. Many times.
In case you missed it earlier, for the only known statement by a "terrorist" concerning who they actually support, see this previous item.
(Thanks Brian Duffy of "No Bush in 04" for sending in his detective work!)
A few media items on their way here today...We'll start with the easy one. Finally found ABC News Now on my digital dial (Channel 190 for Los Angelenos in the Adelphia digital 'hood). That would be their new Online and/or Digital Only news operation that began during the Conventions when the Entertainment division thought that Americans were better served by watching "According to Jim" on the free public airwaves instead of learning about the two parties who would be leading the "Free" World for the next four years.
Haven't gotten to watch a whole lot yet, but after the hour or so I did see at 2am last night, so far I can say it a delight! Being able to watch real journalists (well, okay, Sam Donaldson and Jonathan Karl, but you get the idea) talk politics all night long without commercial interruption other than for a few ABC Entertainment plugs was awesome.
I don't think many folks yet get this refreshing alternative to the Cable News spews, but so far, I'm thrilled to have an alternative to the boredom, laziness and Adminstration brown-nosing of CNN, the pedantic schizophrenia of MSNBC, and the out and out Republican Infomercial that is Fox News.
From what I've seen so far, it's a charming mix of the free-form take-all-the-time-ya-need pacing of C-SPAN with the full resources of an actual major news organization that seem to be enjoying themselves without all the pressures of commercial television. We'll see how long it lasts that way...But check it out for yourself if you're lucky enough to pick it up where you are (and lucky enough to be able to figure out where the hell it is! Here's some help!)

|Frovatriptan as a Transitional Therapy in Medication Overuse Headache
|Brief Summary
This study will analyze the effectiveness of a medication called Frovatriptan, in the context of medication overuse headache (MOH). MOH is a headache that develops when pain-killers are taken frequently. The treatment is to stop the overuse of these pain-killers, but that can sometimes worsen the headache first before it gets better. We are testing Frovatriptan against placebo to see if it can help patients with this transition and avoid the worsening of the headache that can occur. We will also see if Frovatriptan can help in other ways, such as maintain patients free of medication overuse.
|Detailed Description
A single-centre, randomized, placebo-controlled trial is proposed to assess Frovatriptan as a transitional therapy in patients diagnosed with medication overuse headache. Currently, there are no proven transitional therapies to help patients get through the detoxification process. Frovatriptan has not been tested as a transitional therapy in the past. This study will compare Frovatriptan, taken over a 10 day transitional period, to placebo. The primary outcome of the study will be the mean headache intensity in the 10 day transitional period in the Frovatriptan group as compared to the placebo group. A number of secondary and exploratory outcomes will also be determined and further data collection will occur at 1, 2, and 3 month periods. The duration of the study for the participants will be 3 months, and they will be asked to keep detailed headache diaries during this time. Ten days of baseline headache diaries will also be performed before patients can enter the study.

PIERRE, S.D. – (DRG News) A small section of water pipe remains above water in the vicinity of the Minneconjou Recreation Area, as the Corps of Engineers is making repairs that will likely result in the pipe returning to the river bottom sometime soon. Eric Stasch-Operations Manager for the Corps' Oahe Project-says a small section of the 14-inch pipe that serves customers of the Tri County Water System is still floating in a bay near the original Tri County intake. At one point last week, a segment measuring about 50 feet was on the water. It's believed that an air bubble in the system caused a portion of the pipeline to rise up on the lake. Stasch says the problem has been identified and is being repaired, and at the same time, work is being done on a new system intake. He says once those projects are complete, the air bubble should be pushed through the system and the piping will sink back into place on the river bottom. Officials with Tri County say that posters have been put up to alert boaters at boat docks near the old intake on the side of the water that borders the Cheyenne River Sioux Reservation.

One glance at Vanessa Lachey, and it's quite clear that she is one hot mama!
The TV personality and wife to singer Nick Lachey is soaking up every second as a new mommy to 9-month-old baby Camden, and we're beyond impressed with her slim, svelte postbaby bod!
The brunette beauty recently opened up to HuffPost Live and admitted she gained a whopping 65 pounds during her pregnancy, but it shrugged it off with a breezy smile and sunny disposition.
"Don't stress about losing it. It will happen when it happens," the star, who attributes her healthy weight loss to her busy lifestyle, said in the interview. "Just enjoy time being a mom. You've just had this wonderful, magical moment, and you shouldn't be stressing about that kind of stuff."
Sounds like sensible advice to us!
And hey, when all else fails, Lachey admits she also gets by with the help of some stylish support. "Spanx are amazing! Thank you to the inventor of that!"

- Defeated Ingvald Bjerke (Norway) points
- Defeated Osvaldo Sánchez (Chile) points
- Defeated Harry Isaacs (South Africa) points
- Lost to Vittorio Tamagnini (Italy) points
Daley also won the National AAU bantamweight title in 1928. After a brief pro career, he became a stock and bond broker. [1]

A well-known actor, in Washington recently to promote an upcoming film, did what many creative types do when they visit the nation's capital: He got a little philosophical.
"Your childhood is everything," Simon Pegg mused while talking to The Washington Times about his new, nostalgia-laden film, "The World's End," which opened this past weekend to love from critics and audiences alike. The apocalyptic comedy stars Mr. Pegg as a 40-year-old who returns to his changed hometown determined to re-create with four former friends what was supposed to be the legendary pub crawl of their youth.
"It's even more relevant now, with this extended adolescence we seemingly have now," the actor reflected. "I think of my dad when I was a kid." When his father was 25, he struck his son as older, in retrospect, than the 43-year-old Mr. Pegg feels now.
"Suddenly, we've been given extensions to our youths, where we don't have to have kids right away," he said. "I didn't have my first child until I was 39. The impetus to grow up is lessened, but there's nothing to fill that void, particularly, except what we did as kids. Which is why you have guys collecting action figures at 35. Or why we're all watching films about superheroes and spaceships when we're grown-ups."
It's a surprising soliloquy from the man who's best known to moviegoers worldwide as Scotty, the chief engineer of the starship Enterprise. "Star Trek Into Darkness," the second film in the rebooted franchise, is currently this year's seventh-highest-grossing movie.
The trend has surely helped his career. But Mr. Pegg actually bemoaned the fact that we've become, as he put it, "infantilized." And while "The World's End," with its stars tearing the heads and limbs off zombielike creatures in a desperate bid to survive long enough to make it to all 12 planned pubs, looks like a typical late-summer popcorn flick, it turns out to be a solid shot against the nanny state.
"The whole argument in the film really is, to use AA-speak, about the higher power," Mr. Pegg explained, referring to Alcoholics Anonymous, whose meetings his character reluctantly attends. "Is it right to give yourself over to a higher power? Maybe it is. Maybe we are so erratic and dangerous as a species that maybe our free will isn't always such a great thing. Maybe there should be somebody to tell us how many guns we can own, or that kind of stuff, because that way maybe less people would die, to use just one example."
But clearly Mr. Pegg, who stars as Gary King — alcoholic, perpetual adolescent and unlikely champion of human autonomy — doesn't think so. "The key to that is it comes at the expense of free will. And that is something that we all hold so very dear," he said.
"The World's End," which Mr. Pegg wrote with Edgar Wright, who also directed, is the final film in a loose trilogy and opened with the strongest showing of the trio. "Shaun of the Dead" made $3.3 million during its U.S. opening weekend in 2004, and "Hot Fuzz" topped it with $5.8 million in 2007. "The World's End" earned nearly $9 million last weekend.
Mr. Pegg and Mr. Wright, along with Nick Frost, their friend, frequent collaborator and co-star of the three films, all recalled the raucous shoot in between sips from Starbucks cups here in Washington. Their choice of drinks was noticeable because the characters of "The World's End" continually grumble about the phenomenon they call "Starbucking," in which corporate chains have planted firm roots in their previously humble hometown.
The film subtly undermines such common complaints, Mr. Pegg contended. "Maybe the coffeeshop or pub that was there before the new one wasn't as good as we thought it was."
He and the film take a different view of the town's other invaders, however. In the climatic scene, Mr. Pegg's Gary King delivers a defiant speech to the intelligence bent on taking over the planet, dubbed "the Network." The Network tells Gary it wants to improve, not eradicate, the human race. Think of it as a benevolent bureaucrat who understands our needs better than we do ourselves.
"We're not saying that the Earth wouldn't have been a better place with the Network. Because maybe it would have been," Mr. Pegg said, making the Network sound a lot like one of the many paternalistic politicians who would protect us from our own unruly choices. But the ability to make them, the actor argued, is what makes us human. The Network could choose for us — and it might even choose correctly. "But it comes at one price. What is that price? Everything."
Mr. Wright echoed Mr. Pegg's paean to self-determination. "The point of this film is to bring us this theme of what makes us human, and what makes us different from the perfect aliens is that we are flawed. To be human to is make mistakes and learn from your mistakes," he concluded.
