Novus Gaskets
Novus Gaskets and Novus material is a material like no other. It has been created especially for its resistance to acids, oils and fuels, as well as its practical properties which make it incredibly useful for a number of applications. It has excellent temperature resistance, being able to withstand very low and high temperatures without perishing or disintegrating, making it an excellent choice as a gasket material.
Tailor-Made Gaskets
Novus gaskets can be manufactured in any shape or size you might require. We can also work to your requirements in terms of the number of holes or slots in the flanges. Tailor-made Novus gaskets are available in thickness ranges of 0.25mm, 0.4mm, 0.5mm, 0.75mm, 1mm, 1.5m, 2mm and 3mm.
The Right Material For You
A number of different forms of Novus materials are available. Each of them has its own specific properties to make it even more useful for particular applications.

By Elizabeth Hewitt, VTDigger.org
A Starksboro man has died after jumping into the water off Button Bay State Park to help his son, who was struggling while swimming, according to Vermont State Police. Jason Russell, age 36, died at 4 a.m. Thursday, July 7, after being pulled from the water unresponsive Wednesday at approximately 5 p.m., police said.
Russell's son was swimming out to a small island near shore at the park in Ferrisburgh when he began having trouble swimming, police reported. The child shouted for help when he was about halfway to the island, prompting Russell to jump in to save him. Russell appeared to struggle as he swam to his son, according to a police report, but made it to the child. He lifted his son up but went under as he did so.
The child's mother, Aaron Morris, found a kayak and paddled out to where the two were in the water, according to police. The boy held onto the kayak, but Russell was unresponsive. Other boaters saw what was happening and came to help. The child was lifted into a boat, and they were able to transport Russell to the shore.
Vergennes Rescue, the Ferrisburgh Fire Department, Middlebury Rescue and Charlotte Rescue went to the scene and tried to revive him. Both Russell and his son were taken to the University of Vermont Medical Center for treatment, where Russell later died.
Police said they do not believe drugs or alcohol was involved. They said the death was being investigated.
Kyle Wagner, park manager at Button Bay, said two park employees responded to the call and jumped in with civilians to help get the pair out of the water and that one park employee did CPR on Russell. Wagner said he could not comment on the conditions that may have affected the two swimmers Wednesday.
He noted the area does have zebra mussels on the rocks, which can cut swimmers. The area is also sensitive to weather, and storms can come over the nearby Adirondacks quickly, he said.
"You could have calm waters one moment and 10 minutes later have whitecaps," Wagner said.
He urged people to watch the weather when they go out in the water, to stay near the shore, and to be conscious of their own abilities.

Here are some benefits of regular exercise and choosing a healthy eating plan.*optimum cholesterol levels
*stronger bones
*reduced risk of breast cancer
*balanced blood pressure
*decreased stress levels
*decreased depression
*increased self-esteem ⎡duh, baby!!⎤
*increased mental concentration
*more energy
*hot body
*higher metabolism 〔weight training〕
*reduced joint pain
*strong immune system
*vitalized sexuality
*improved digestion and elimination ⎩number 2⎭
*better sleep ⎣and you'll need a bit more sleep, 6-8 hours⎦
*easier menstruation ⎨cramps, "see ya'!"⎬
*improved posture
*sparkle in your eyes!!
Sounds like a gold mine.
A gold mine.
Yet, we still experience difficulties in maintaining the ritual of regular exercise and optimum nutrition.
with all these goodies awaiting your BODy,
is it so challenging to LIVE healthy?
I mean – look at the list again ⇡
Would you feel good, let's say, if you had mild or nonexistent menstrual cramps?
Would you feel good if your doctor said that your cholesterol levels were below 200?
Would you feel good if your knees didn't hurt while doing housework?
And for vanity sake, would you feel good if you dropped two dress sizes? Didn't have to avoid the dressing room mirror? Looked smashing in white skinny jeans?
Be honest.
Well here's the problem with feeling GOOD.
We don't choose paths, positions, or make choices because they will make us feel good.
We don't.
We choose comfort.
And more than that,
we choose immediate comfort over
the delayed-gratification-kind of comfort.
We are wired for micro movements. Small shifts.
Big shifts are scary, disorienting, and unpredictable.
It's more comfortable NOT to have to move too far away from what we are used to.
Small, tiny shifts are big enough.
We have adapted to what we have and do right now,
even if it doesn't really feeling good.
But here's the good news about our inch worm perspective on shifting and comfort ☟
You can apply INCH WORM movements quite geniusly to implementing
a ritual of regular exercise and choosing optimum nutrition.
Listen, for example ➼
if you set out to climb a mountain that is 10 miles steep,
I advise you NOT to make the trek while
looking up at the top the whole time.
For some of us, constantly looking at the mountain top from way far below its peak
evokes worry over how long it'll take to climb,
conjures dread about never reaching the top, + triggers shame about the last time we climbed and checked out for the used-to-be life.
Looking at the top of the mountain when you still have 9 miles more to go can make you frickn exhausted till you trade in your dream for the immediate gratification of rolling like a log back down into the life you have always known, where you are on auto-pilot circling the skies of comfort city.
Look up before you start climbing.
See the top.
Really look at it.
Imagine reaching the top.
Imagine your self on the top!
Now you're ready to take a step. Another step. Another step. Another step.
Like an inch worm.
Look up rarely.
Better for you to simply imagine being on the top.
Your imagination along with small steps and shifts will cheer you on and put you on top of your mountain,
over time.
It will.
And you will get more comfortable as your legs get stronger.
You'll get more comfortable and acclimate to the incline and air quality the higher you go.
Your BODy and mind will adapt to new heights.
Take another step.
Poor comfort.
I've really put it in a dunce-corner.
But comfort ain't all bad.
No-thing is all good nor all bad.
But in the case of eyeballing that list of benefits above, maybe some of our ole comforts are blocking us from feeling better.
Feeling good over the long-term is worth a few muscle aches, 4-5 early mornings, Tupperware packed lunches, sweat socks in your purse, starch-free dinners, showing up 30 minutes late for the after-work cocktail party cuz you worked out first, refusing the gravy and extra butter even if everyone at the table looks at you cock-eyed, and opting for a 30-minute jog cuz all the bikes in spin class are taken.
Get comfortable with being empowered by your choices,
you fine and fit thang.
your trainer,
michelle bernard

text: Hi Bahman, Smalltalk has a very similar thread model to the one of Java. You can start threads/Processes with priorities and therefor the behavior is very much like the one you describe. A web server (in Pharo you'd use Zn, I guess) kicks off worker threads at a certain priority to fulfill web requests and thus they are independent from each other. If one eats up cpu cycles, it will still yield to other processes because the Scheduler will switch processes from time to time. The GUI thread has quite some high Priority (at least in the environments I know a bit better) and therefor can make the image unresponsive (frozen). So in the end it is up to you (or the frameworks you use, like Seaside/Zn) to take care of this situation. Very much like in Java.

Ok, I am on a roll with this. In the past, I felt the BBB was the place to go to check out the creditability of a company.
After seeing they have given AHS an A+, I have to assume the BBB is useless. On the BBB website, the have received over 3100 complaints in 36 months and still rates AHS with an A+.
So, you must be required to pay a fee to join the BBB and if so, AHS is probably paying a hefty rate to keep their A+ rating. If you read this, please complain to the BBB about their rating scale and how useless they are to consumers.
Product or Service Mentioned: American Home Shield Warranty.
I rent my home to a military family... In July which is one of the hottest times of the year here in Columbia, SC.
My tenants called me stating the air condition unit was out. I called American Home Shield (AHS). They said it would take a few days to come out. That wouldn't work it's over 100 degrees and I have a infant and a lady that is pregnant in the home.
The said that's all they could do. So I called Spring Valley and they came out the same day and replaced the motor for $488 plus service call. A few days later the tenants called and told me the AC was making noise... I stated I'll call the AHS company and see what they can do.
This time they sent out a technician who replaced the fan blade and left. Everything was working when he left. That next thing I know I get a call again saying the AC was making noise and the top of the AC unit has *** in it. I called the AHS again, and they send the technician back out, same person.
He took the motor and the blade out and said he will have to order the parts and that it would take a month before he can fix it. This was unacceptable and I again called AHS. They said they would talk to the technician, it was a week before any from there contacted us. The came me the number to the technician's office.
I called there and they knew nothing as far as information, they said they will have the technician call me. I called AHS again and told them I have to get AC in that house, so I called another company to go out. The new Technician said the motor was gone and the top was missing. That was when I realized that the AHS technician had taking the motor, fan blade and top with him.
I was never told he was doing that. I had to pay the new technician $512 for a motor blade and top. Now I have contacted AHS again, explained to them what has taken place. I was told to send in the documents for review and they would give me a refund.
During this entire time with each and every call, their customer service department was very rude and nasty. When I asked to speak to a supervisor, they would say they didn't have a supervisor, or the supervisor wasn't at work that day. Always another excuse after another. Finally a very nice lady told us that the technician hadn't reported to them as per the policy.
He was suppose to have 24 hrs. to inform them and up to that day he hadn't reported. She told me to fax in the documents and she would take care of the reimbursement. Today is Oct 5th, 2015.
Just got off the phone with another poor customer service individual and she stated she wasn't going to pay for the motor or the top, only the fan. When asked why not, she stated because she said so. She stated she will call the technician and have him bring the motor fan and top back. Lets see, he took it in July, this is Oct.
Why is it taking this long for them to get my motor back when I told him to bring it back in July, and in Aug. Now they're not going to pay me for getting something fix that I pay them to fix. This place is a rip off and so it the technician they sent out.
Stay away for this people. STAY AWAY FROM AMERICAN HOME SHIELD!!!
AHS is bogus. I too went through AHS after thinking I had done my research as an educated consumer.
My slight skepticism in the BBB is now ruined. I have NO faith in their accreditations.
AHS - Won't get the A/C fixed and it's been about a month. Every week they have been out more then once. Every weekend it goes out, or the middle of the week.
We have 7 people in my household and we can't just pack up and sleepover at grandma's house. STAY AWAY FROM AHS!!
I have to agree with HER, in that BBB is just an advertising tool. It's a *** good one at that, but it takes nothing to get a pyramid scheme startup BBB accredited with an A+ rating.
What's the best way to scam people out of a lot of money using the BBB?
Well, start a company having you as the only employee. Then get BBB "Accredited," in that what you are telling them is correct ($600 is the BBB's fee in Minnesota for a company run by one person, and if you don't have any financials yet, they can't be wrong!). Third, use the BBB's logo as a selling point saying that you are BBB Accredited with an A+ rating and start up, say, a Forex scheme where you get people's money and trade it. BBB doesn't look at any of this stuff until after your first year, because it would be too expensive for them to have running tallies on you, and for the fact that a lot of things can happen in one year.
Finally, take all of the hundreds of thousands (or possibly millions) that you somehow got people to give to you, sell off all of your assets, and move to somewhere on an island where you don't have to worry about the U.S. government coming after you.
What a great $600 investment!
ABC News did an investigative report on the BBB. They found that the BBB is only running a "pay for play" scheme.
You can read all about it at abcnews.go.com/ ABC's findings was that they're out to increase BBB membership and revenue, thereby greatly diminishing the BBB's credibility and honesty. The bottom line is that if businesses pay for membership in the BBB, then the BBB will automatically give those businesses an 'A' Rating.
From my experience, the BBB is just another advertising venue. They have contacted me several times to try to get me to pay for a listing. Think about it, who is going to pay for a listing with a bad rating.
To get non-biased help in resolving your customer problems and complaints with AHS. I advise that you utilize the FREE big company social networking complaints resolution services of www.publikdemand.com OR call the Publik Demand Hotline at 1-888-724-8981 OR email PD at email@example.com
If you are disgusted with AHS's business tactics, customer relations AND DENIAL OF TRUE, VALID CLAIMS (ie: Breach of Contract)....
Here's some info:
If you're seeking CEO David Crawford's voicemail - here's how.
Dial 1-866-305-0259 as stated above. When the phone system says "Thank you for calling American Home Shield.... please enter your Representative's Extension" -
Enter Ext. # 1000
The Greeting will then say: "Welcome to Avia Messaging, please enter the mailbox # of the person you are calling.... IF YOU DON'T KNOW THE MAILBOX NUMBER, PRESS STAR (*) TO SPELL THE NAME"....
After that sentence, IMMEDIATELY PRESS STAR (*) - then spell David Crawford's LAST NAME:
just input, "CRAW".... you will then be taken to: DAVE CRAWFORD'S VOICEMAIL....
Kindly leave your message.
If you want to call bluff - redial the 1-866 number above, go to Ext. 1000 and then input Judy's Extension "2100" (Judy Peedic - The Executive Assistant to David Crawford) - it will take you to her voicemail (or she will pick up) - so the Avia Messaging System is that of AHS...
Also, another Executive Assistant to David Crawford is a person by the name of "Matthew Boyd" his extension is 2103 at the same 1-866 number listed above (again, his extension also works in the Avia Messaging System @ AHS).
I hope American Home Shield makes right on alot of the breach of contract issues... :)
The info in the above paragraph is not valid, as David Crawford is no longer the CEO of AHS. Best bet is to contact AHS parent company at www.servicemaster.com

Search for the Vice Chancellor for Finance and Chief Financial Officer
University of California, Berkeley
Berkeley, California
The University of California, Berkeley (Berkeley), the world's premier public research institution, invites nominations and applications for the position of Vice Chancellor for Finance and Chief Financial Officer (CFO).
Reporting to both Chancellor Carol Christ and Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost (EVCP) Paul Alivisatos, and serving as a key member of the Chancellor's Cabinet, the new CFO will join Berkeley at a pivotal moment in its history. In the next ten years, Berkeley will - even more than it does today - push the boundaries of knowledge, challenge convention, and expand opportunity to create the leaders of tomorrow. To do this, Berkeley will invest heavily in the student experience, make new commitments within Berkeley's research and academic spheres, and strive to make our institution a more welcoming and supportive place for people of all backgrounds. The CFO will play an important role in this effort, working closely with faculty, staff, students, alumni, supporters and other key stakeholders to develop and drive an effective financial strategy that will enable Berkeley to achieve these significant ambitions. The University of California was chartered in 1868, and its flagship campus—envisioned as a "City of Learning"—was established in Berkeley, on a hill overlooking the San Francisco Bay and the Golden Gate. Building upon a history of distinction, Berkeley continues to be recognized for the quality and impact of its faculty and students, the scope of its research and publications, and the leading role it plays in the national dialogue regarding the future of public higher education in America.
As a senior member of Berkeley's administrative team, the CFO will join an engaged and cohesive group of campus leaders at a time of significant change and energy as the university moves toward a more sustainable funding model and addresses urgent housing and capital needs. The CFO leads a highly skilled and client-focused Finance Division that includes the following units: The Controller's Office, University Business Partnerships and Services, the Immediate Office of the CFO, and the Office of Financial Planning and Analysis, which includes capital finance and the institutional research team. UC Berkeley's projected FY2020 operating budget is $3 billion, and the university has an endowment of approximately $4.8 billion; 14 percent of the university's operating funds come from the State of California.
In order to develop a financial strategy to guide UC Berkeley into its next era of success, the next CFO, in partnership with the Chancellor, EVCP, and other senior leadership, will address a number of key strategic and operational priorities:
The ideal candidate for the position will be a seasoned, innovative financial leader with extensive experience in a complex academic organization. Skills in a wide range of finance disciplines and a deep understanding of financial operations and systems are essential, as well as experience with the development and execution of long-term financial strategy at the enterprise level. Candidates should have demonstrated experience in a large, decentralized, multifaceted organization and should be well versed in trends in higher education finance. Consistent with UC Berkeley's values, this person must have a resounding civic and community orientation and a demonstrated commitment to advancing diversity and inclusion. Above all, the CFO must be an excellent communicator committed to the highest ethical and professional standards, with demonstrated ability to work collaboratively and collegially in a diverse academic community in support of UC Berkeley's mission of teaching, research, and public service.
The University of California, Berkeley is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer with a strong institutional commitment to the achievement of diversity. Applicants should submit a current curriculum vitae and, preferably, a cover letter describing relevant experience and interest in the position. Screening of complete applications will begin immediately. The first review date is January 10, 2020, and the committee will continue to accept applications and nominations until the completion of the search process. Inquiries, nominations, referrals, and CVs with cover letters should be sent via the Isaacson, Miller website for the search: www.imsearch.com/7334. Electronic submission of materials is strongly encouraged.

Dwarf | © Tourismus Salzburg GmbH
In the Realm of the Dwarfs: the Salzburg Dwarf Garden
They have over 320 years under the belts, were sculpted from Untersberg marble, then auctioned off, before finally being brought back to their original home: If the Dwarfs in the Salzburg Dwarf Garden could speak, their tales would probably provide enough material for a Hollywood movie. But even a quiet stroll from one figure to the next reveals many an intriguing background story.
It's quite a collection of characters that beckon you. They grin mischievously, have a chicken tucked under their arm, or gaze thoughtfully into the sky. And they have certainly had plenty of time to perfect their poses: The famous dwarfs in the Salzburg Dwarf Garden go all the way back to the 17th century. In order to restore their natural beauty, 15 of these little rascals were taken away and given the full "spa treatment" between mid-November 2017 and May 2018. Manufactured from beautiful white marble, since spring of 2018 these cheerful lads and lasses are more radiant than they have been in a really long time. They have also been rearranged on their pedestals into new groups, taking the experience up to a whole new, and even more enchanting level. As we roam through this garden of dwarfs, it becomes clear that each figure plays its own uniquely important role.
Of gardeners and ball players
The dwarf with the spade, for example, is very symbolic. His gaze, directed vacantly skywards, is rather deceptive: This dwarf is an honest-to-goodness gardener. He symbolizes the month of March, in which garden work traditionally begins. The old gardener is one of the best preserved figures of the garden. If you inspect him carefully, you will see that he even sports a bump on his bald pate. Opinions are divided as to why that is: Did the gardener injure himself performing his sometimes-dangerous gardening duties? Or does it represent the "devil's horn" we also know from harlequin masks? We suggest making up your own mind.
17th-century caricatures
And then there are the two marble chaps ensconced on the bridge leading to the Bastion Garden. You will find this famous pair of baroque dwarfs engrossed in a game that was very popular during the Renaissance, known as Pallone. One player tosses the ball, while the other hits it back with the help of an iron-studded wooden sleeve. If you take a close look at the dwarfs, you will see that the mouth of the dwarf holding the ball is open to shout out a warning, while the "batter" stands ready for the throw. The "pitcher's" head is actually adorned by a pot – curious headwear, certainly, which clearly suggests the dwarfs are intended as caricatures. In fact, all of the Salzburg dwarfs are indeed derived from caricatures originally immortalized in copper engravings by French draftsman and artist Jacques Callot at the beginning of the 17th century.
A realm of dwarfs in the middle of Salzburg
The Dwarf Garden was originally populated by 28 dwarfs during the time of archbishop Johann Ernst Graf Thun. As a consequence of the Enlightenment, the dwarfs were banned from Mirabell Gardens in the early 19th century and eventually auctioned off. Their value to art history was only recognized more than one hundred years later. And so it came about that, in 1919, they were brought back from gardens across Salzburger Land, the Hausruck and Bavaria, and returned to the places they had originally stood: in the very heart of Salzburg. Admittedly, they now only number 15 and no longer stand in the original Dwarf Garden, but rather in the neighboring Small Bastion Garden, also known as the "Water Bastion". But Salzburgers are proud of their dwarfs and the oldest dwarf garden in Europe. And who knows – perhaps, sometime in the future, all of the marble figures will be reunited on the historic soil of Hellbrunn's baroque gardens – in their own small, yet magnificent realm.

PhD graduate students who have young, dependent children in childcare may be eligible for the childcare grant program provided by the Graduate Division. This program will provide funds to assist students with the cost of childcare for the academic year. The application deadline for the next academic year will be announced via email to PhD students and program administrators annually in July.
Grants are based on household resources and may be used to pay for a wide range of possible arrangements, from in-home care to licensed daycare centers. These grants are treated as additional stipend income by the IRS and may be subject to state and federal tax.
Who is eligible?
To be eligible for consideration for a childcare grant, you must meet all of the following conditions. Special circumstances will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
- Be a full-time PhD student registered at UCSF in a graduate academic program.
- Have dependent child or children who are 12 or younger as of September 1 in the new academic year.
- Demonstrate financial need for this grant.
- Be a single parent or, if married, have a spouse who is a full-time student matriculated in a degree or certificate program, or who is gainfully employed full-time and earning income. Spouses who work half-time and attend school half-time will be considered employed full-time. Contingent on funding availability, if the spouse works part-time, a reduced childcare grant may be made available.
- Meet satisfactory academic progress.
The Graduate Division will make an exception to the employment criteria for a non-student spouse who cannot work due to a disability. Please note this on your application so your situation may be considered during review. You may be asked to document your spouse's employment or student status.
How to apply
U.S. citizens and permanent residents must submit by the deadline:
- Childcare Grant application in a single PDF document
- Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Use school code 001319. Use your 2017 income when filling out the FAFSA application. Do not use the IRS Data Retrieval Tool. Please notify Roberto Banuelos in the Graduate Division at [email protected] after you submit the FAFSA.
Note: The Graduate Division may request copies of your and your spouse's signed 2017 federal income tax returns (1040, 1040A, 1040EZ, 1040NR, 1040NR-EZ, or Form 8843) or a non-filing statement.
International students must submit by the deadline:
- Childcare Grant application in a single PDF document
- Confidential Financial Statement (CFS). Complete the form and email directly to Student Financial Services as instructed on the form. Please notify the Graduate Division at [email protected] after you submit the CFS.
Note: International students should NOT complete the FAFSA.
When to apply
Applications for 2019-2020 will open on July 2. The submission deadline is August 5. Notifications will be made in early September.
How much is the grant award?
The number of awards and amount of each award depend on the number of eligible applicants, applicant financial need, the number of eligible children receiving childcare, and their childcare expenses. The total available funding available for each academic year may vary from year to year.
The grant award amount cannot exceed the cost of your childcare.
How eligibility for the grant is determined
You must demonstrate financial need to be eligible for the childcare grant program. Financial need is calculated as follows:
Estimated Cost of Attendance — Expected Family Contribution/Available Resources = Demonstrated Financial Need
Estimated cost of attendance: This estimated amount includes tuition, fees, an allowance for books and supplies, a reasonable allowance for living expenses, and childcare expenses as reported on the Childcare Grant application.
Expected family contribution/available resources: The Graduate Division calculates your expected family contribution based on your Childcare Grant application and the FAFSA or international student Confidential Financial Statement. Tax returns may be requested. The calculation is based on such items as your earnings; checking, savings, cash, and money market accounts; investments and real estate holdings other than your family's primary residence; business equity; untaxed income; income from assistantships; and other financial aid you are receiving through your academic program or department and Student Financial Services.
Receiving your grant funds
Payments are typically made in three equal portions in October, February and May, after your student tuition and fees are paid for that term. Students are encouraged to sign up for direct deposit through the UCSF Controller's Office.
Q. How is financial need determined for the Childcare Grant?
A. The childcare grant is a needs-based award. Eligibility is based on a formula involving a student's cost of attendance (including tuition and fees, room and board, books and supplies, and personal and miscellaneous expenses) less contributions from income and assets and sources of financial aid. All income and assets are documented on the FAFSA or CFS for international students, which are used to calculate financial aid awards.
Q. What does it mean to have a spouse that is gainfully employed?
A. This may include employment in the traditional sense; including working at an employer's worksite or telecommuting for an employer that allows this type of flexible work situation. It may also include self-employment. In some circumstances, the Graduate Division may require documentation from an employer to determine employment status. We may also require copies of tax returns to verify self-employment income. The Graduate Division will make the final determination of an employment situation during application review.
Q. Why is the spouse required to be employed or enrolled in a college degree program in order to qualify for a childcare subsidy?
A. If a spouse is not working or enrolled in school, it is the expectation that this person would be available to care for a child or children. The funds for this program are limited, and they are awarded as a matter of policy to families with both parents enrolled in school, or to those that have one parent in school and one working (or a combination of being employed and in school).
Questions may be directed to [email protected].

Your bird HAS to see an avian vet. Now.
What kind of diet is she on? It's possible she has a calcium dificiency from laying all the eggs.
We have had our Peach Faced lovebird for about two years. She has always been energetic, and had a way of chewing up any papers left around for nesting. Over the course of the summer, she laid six eggs (but no more than two at once), but as there was no mate, none of them hatched. She then stopped laying eggs, and has since become lethargic. For the past month, she has been becoming slower and slower. For about three days she has seemed quite cold, and has been standing next to the coffee pot for warmth. Today she did not have the strength to stand on the perch, and is falling asleep extremely quickly. Our previous bird was a white parakeet, which had similar symptoms and died overnight on the bottom of her cage at age one. We took our parakeet to the vet, but they did not have a solution. Please tell me what I can do to help my lovebird, I fear that I may lose her soon.
Your bird HAS to see an avian vet. Now.
What kind of diet is she on? It's possible she has a calcium dificiency from laying all the eggs.
Ditto! She needs to see a vet. She could be egg bound or have an infection. Please don't hesitate to take her in to an avian vet!
Visit Apache, Neo, Silver, Taxi, Tieka, Trinny, Buzz, Tiggy, Paris, Persephone & Hektor at Nikkie's Cockatiels More of what the flock is up too at their blog. Tiel Tales
"Somewhere out there
Someone's singing a prayer
That we'll find one another
In that big somewhere, out there"~
Prayers for Paris- Please come home!
We're pretty sure it's not a calcium deficiency, as she was fine after laying the eggs, and was chewing on her cuddlebone. Our previous bird went to the vet, but they did not see anything unusual while she was there, and gave her antibiotics. I am a minor, and my parents don't think we should bring her to the vet as our previous bird did not survive, possibly because of the treatment. We just got off the phone with my mother now, and she still disagrees on going to the vet. I would like to know of any possible alternatives, as it seems the vet is out of the question.
That is so cruel of your parents. It's not fair to deny a bird seeing a vet, just because the other bird died. Go to a better vet.
Also, a cuttle bone doesn't actually give calcium that a bird can absorb. What else does she get to eat?
NO! Bring your bird to the Vet ASAP it may not be the same thing as the bugie and just do not let your vet give the bird anything unless he/she is sure of what it is, Also she could be egg bound (meaning she is trying to lay an egg but can't because it is stuck) and if it cracks inside her she will die for sure
I also have: A springer spanial, 2 untame Buggies, 2 fish tanks, and 2 guinea pigs
She has a diet of mixed seeds. We try to feed her other foods, such as fruits, but she never eats them, except for blueberries. The only other drink she will drink is milk, which we try to keep her out of, as I have heard that birds cannot process lactose.
You need to keep your lovie warm, sick birds have a hard time keeping warm. Dont give her milk becuase you are right they cannot digest it right and it is bad for them. If possible put her in a small cage with a heating pad on half of the bottom so she can go there and stay warm. Really a old fish tank or a clear carrier is best but make sure she can step away from the heat source if she overheats. The best thing you can do for her is convince your parents to take her the avian vet becuase this could be something that wont get better without medicine to give her. If she was laying eggs before and not getting anything but seeds then she could need calcium badly, they should really eat pellets for vitamins needed, especially when they are laying eggs. Also she could have a egg in there that is not coming out, this could be fatal and she needs a doctor. Since you are young it is not your choice to not take her to the doctors, it is your parents and hopefully they will take her to see one, the sooner the better. People here hate to hear what you said about not taking her to the vets, hopefully they will be nice to you, they just care about the birds here and your bird does need a vets help soon or I am sorry you may lose her like you did your budgie. It was not the vet or the medicine that killed your budgie, it was something else, the vets can help. My thoughts and prayers are with your little lovie and you.
Fly Free Boomer, we will forever love you.
Along with what boomer girl said about it not necessarily being the vet's fault that your budgie died - people die, and yet we do not stop going to doctors! Sometimes a bird or a person can be saved, sometimes they can't. Unfortunately, that's life - and death. BUT seeing a vet would give your lovie a CHANCE to survive. Or if not, at least some comfort from pain in her last days. Maybe it would help if your mother considered that point of view?
Good luck, and keep her warm how boomer girl described while you're sorting this out with your mother.
Well, we gave her a source of heat (a lamp facing the opposite direction), but she stayed leaned up against her cardboard box. We did schedule an appointment for the vet, but she just recently died. The worst part is that we have no idea what happened, just like our previous bird. After she passed, we did not see a bulge as if it was egg binding. Thank you all anyway for your help, it's always nice to know that you can get aid if you need it.
(moderators, you can delete this thread)
You can have a necropsy done to find out why.
I'm sorry she died, but if you had gotten vet care when she first started to show signs(a month ago) this probably could have been avoided.
Chris I am sorry to hear about your lovebird dying, how sad the poor girl :-( Hopefully the good memories you have for her will help you make it through what must be a sad day for you. Big HUG to you!!!
Fly Free Boomer, we will forever love you.
This is a problem with birds, they do not show signs of being sick until they are really sick. Weight is a good way of telling if your bird is ill, you should weigh them at least once a week and keep a record. If you notice a drop in weight, they you should do it everyday. Poop is another way to keep an eye on a birds health.
I agree with taking your bird to the vet ASAP. Your last bird was more than likely very ill by the time you took it to the vet and this may be why it did not make it.
Has this bird every been to a vet? Are you using a avairy vet? I wish you and your bird the best of luck.
sorry bout ur lovebird mate

Downhillers Dominate New PGS Event
VAL GARDENA, Italy (Dec. 21, 2015) – Tim Jitloff (Reno, NV), fresh off a seventh-place finish in Sunday's traditional giant slalom, finished ninth to led the way for the U.S. Ski Team in Monday night's new Audi FIS Alpine World Cup parallel giant slalom. Ted Ligety (Park City, UT) and Andrew Weibrecht (Lake Placid, NY) were both knocked out in the first round, finishing 24th and 29th respectively.
The first of its kind on the World Cup, the PGS was full of surprises, with many pre-race favorites making early exits and a dark horse or two providing thrilling action in the new format.
Two very familiar faces, though not from recent GS races, were left standing in the final heat. Norwegians Kjetil Jansrud and Aksel Lund Svindal had spent the last hour methodically picking off opponent after opponent on the modified two-jump Gran Risa slope. When the snow dust finally settled, it was Jansrud who took his first victory of the season, just edging out his compatriot in the simple, cross-the-finish-first-and-win format.
Third-place finisher Andre Myhrer of Sweden took the victory in the small final by a sizable margin over German surprise contender Dominik Schwaiger, whose best World Cup result before the night was 19th in the previous day's GS. This result marks Myhrer's first trip to the podium since his runner-up finish in the 2014 Adelboden slalom.
Surprisingly, many of the World Cup's top GS skiers looked uncharacteristically sluggish on the relatively flat course, perhaps flustered by having a racer next to them or by two sizable mid-course jumps that quite literally threw almost every racer off line at one point in the night.
Ligety, Marcel Hirscher of Austria, Felix Neureuther of Germany and Henrik Kristoffersen of Norway were all knocked out in the first round. In fact, six of the top seven finishers were seeded outside of the top 15, perhaps indicating that success in traditional GS is not indicative of success in the parallel format.
The night began with the opening round of 32 competitors skiing head-to-head in a two-run format, giving each racer a chance to ski both the red and blue courses. The 1/16 round was two runs, but through the rest of the rounds to the final, it was a one run knockout with one very clear rule: Win, or go home.
The entire event took under 90 minutes to complete, providing intense, spectator-friendly action in a reasonable amount of time compared to a traditional daylong ski race.
For those curious as to how the FIS was able to make a fair race in a one run knockout format, Men's World Cup Chief Race Director Markus Waldner provided details before the event.
"We measured everything with laser, especially the course setting and the basic course preparation," Waldner explained. "The slope has been prepared with a GPS-equipped snowcat, so that the snow and the shape of the terrain become very similar, and even equal. The course setting is also done by GPS and we manage to get really close. The difference between both courses is less than 1–2 centimeters."
The next parallel event on the schedule is a city event in slalom for both the men and women in Stockholm, Sweden, scheduled for Feb. 23.
Up next, the men are off to Madonna di Campiglio, Italy, Tuesday for the classic slalom, the final race before the Christmas break.
- Tim Jitloff was the top American in the ninth, which represents his ninth career top-10 World Cup finish.
- Kjetil Jansrud won his first World Cup event of the season, and his 11th career World Cup victory.
- Aksel Lund Svindal scored his sixth World Cup podium of the season, and his first that wasn't a victory.
- With his second place finish, Svindal moved back into first place in the overall World Cup standings.

Today I finally watched some of E!'s reenactment of the Michael Jackson trial to see what all the fuss was about. Also, I really wanted to see what the actor playing Michael looked like and was impressed with the resemblance, especially the drawn-on black nose holes. Seeing the reenactment reaffirmed my stance on this whole issue: I don't care. I didn't care when the allegations were made, the court date set, the jury was being selected, Michael danced for fans, he got sick, he wore pajamas, he was late, etc. I was tired of hearing about this case ever since it started and am baffled that most of the country isn't either. I remember a few years back when there were three Michael Jackson primetime specials in one week, including the one with Martin Bashir, and I was really sick of that. Now I would rather have a week of Michael Jackson documentaries than months of molestation cases.
The documentaries really annoyed people but this molestation trial is being shoved down our throats and not many seemed bothered by it. Everyday I look at the Google News front page and there's hundreds of news sources talking about the Michael Jackson trial. It is a computer-generated news engine and can't decide what we're sick of, but I look at the Yahoo most emailed news stories and this trial is always on the list. Why do people want to hear about this trial?
I am a fan of Michael's music and think he's one of the best entertainers alive, but the constant media coverage of his life is antagonizing. If he's not singing, dancing, or dying I don't want to hear about him.

Dog at Rest, 1650
Oil on panel
6 ½ x 8 ½ inches (16.5 x 21.6 cm)
Notice how small this painting is. And yet you can see every hair on the dog, feel the bark on the twigs-- the brushwork is exquisite. And there's something about this little dog, curled up but with eyes open as if waiting for the owner of that little shoe to show up any second, that makes it incredibly appealing. It's more than a still life, capturing the essence of suspended energy and holding it for more than 350 years. I love this piece, and was very grateful to be able enjoy it one more time in this new venue.
Resting Dutch puppy--
eye open for centuries
waiting for us, now.

'Entitlement is the abuser's belief that he has a special status and that it provides him with exclusive rights and privileges that do not apply to his partner'
(Lundy Bancroft 2002)
Entitlement can go hand in hand with a sexist attitude towards women. It is also a prevalent attitude in men with narcissistic tendencies. Examples might be-
Believing that the woman's role in the home is to cook, clean and clear up after him, and for sex.
Feeling entitled to criticize but not to accept criticism from her.
Expecting thanks for any small contribution that he makes but not showing appreciation for what she does all the time.
Believing he is entitled to be angry, to punish, intimidate and maybe use violence to keep control of his partner. He expects forgiveness for this and often blames her for 'winding him up'. He might say that other people also find her annoying and he hasn't had any trouble with any other girlfriends.
He may think that his feelings are paramount and have little or no empathy or sympathy for her feelings. Everything will have to revolve around his needs and desires. He might say that the problems in the relationship are because she doesn't understand his feelings. This is particularly the case with narcissistic men.
This abusive man will believe that he has the right to dominate any argument by shouting the loudest and talking over her. If he fires a question at her he will not give her chance to answer. Alternatively, he will dictate the situation by giving the silent treatment and refusing to communicate.
He feels entitled to be moody but will not tolerate bad or low moods in her. He will be aggressive to any sign she is in this frame of mind. He may be aggressive to 'keep her on her toes' and then switch to loving to hook her back in with his charm. This reinforces to him that he still has control over her and she still desires him.
He feels entitled to put her down in front of other people, but there would be all hell to pay if she did the same to him.
He believes he is entitled to decide who she can be friendly with, who can come to the house, where she can work and what clothes she can wear.
These kind of men are attracted to women with low self-esteem and confidence, who are not good at setting and enforcing boundaries, who may have co-dependency issues and who try to hard to please others. The longer these relationships go on, the harder they are to break away from.

Tom Brenner takes SC4 education to TV career
A microphone in one hand, Tom Brenner roamed the sidelines at East China Stadium reporting on St. Clair High School football games.
Brenner was a junior at St. Clair in 2004 when he started as an intern/volunteer with CTV/Channel 6 in St. Clair.
But it took some broadcasting classes at St. Clair County Community College to get Brenner, a 2005 St. Clair graduate, really hooked on the profession. And his career has taken off as he has been a producer at Comcast SportsNet Bay Area in San Francisco since July of 2012.
"I've always loved sports, and I love television," Brennan said. "I learned so much from instructors John Hill and Paul Miller during my two years at SC4," Brenner said. "I got the opportunity to learn from somebody who had been in the business for decades.
"The only thing I had done up until that point was some high school football games. I found out this was something I could make money at and also make a good living."
"SC4 was a great option for me because it allowed me stay involved at Channel 6 and also take some broadcasting classes," said Brenner, 27. "I was able to save some money those two years. If had gone off to a four-year school right away I might have gone into something like business."
Brenner earned his associate degree from SC4 in 2007. He received his bachelor's degree in broadcast and cinematic arts from Central Michigan University in 2009.
For two summers, Brenner served as an intern at WDIV/Local 4 Detroit. He landed job with WDIV as associate/weekend sports producer in 2010. After a year with WDIV, Brenner packed up and headed to California. He served as a production assistant and associate producer with Comcast SportsNet Bay Area before being named a producer.
Brenner received an Emmy Award in June of 2014 in the Sports One Time Special division. The winning show was 2013: A Year to Remember.
Brenner lives in Oakland, Calif. with his wife, Jessica (formerly DeMand), who was a 2006 St. Clair grad and former SC4 student.

Horizen [ZEN] (formerly ZenCash) launched in May 2017 as a fork of Zclassic, which was a fork of the original Zcash. The coin has a strong focus on research & development, and looks to solve the scalability issues within the cryptocurrency space.
Its overall goal is to be the most useful privacy cryptocurrency on the market by being a secure platform for money, messages & media. They have a fixed lifetime coin amount of 21 million ZEN and utilise the same Equihash Proof of Work algorithm as Bitcoin Gold.
Historically altcoin price fluctuations had a positive correlation with bitcoin price movements. This meant that if bitcoin price increased, you would soon expect the altcoin prices to increase, but recently bitcoin price and altcoin prices seem to be independent. Factors that drive price of an altcoin are interest around the altcoin, if there is an upgrade coming up, listing on prominent and trusted crypto exchanges and new partnerships formed by the altcoin.
Altcoin adoption has a major role in positive price increases, adoption is hugely influenced by the use cases of the coin. Spreading of FUD by media, negative press from influential people, banning of crypto by certain countries (regulation) and hacking of altcoin and exchange platforms has a negative effect on altcoin prices.
Horizen can be bought throught on our marketplace, or converted from major digital currencies on our cryptocurrency conversion service. This means you can buy ZEN with ZAR, EUR, NGN, GBP, AUD and many more. Supporting 25 countries, ZEN can be bought using the most convenient local payment method; including bank transfers, PayPal, TransferWise, supported fiat deposits, direct deposits and M-Pesa. Credit card payments are coming soon.
Horizen can be sold for BTC or other cryptocurrencies via the Coindirect conversion service. If you are located in one of our other 24 supported countries, you can instantly sell your ZEN by selecting the best buy offer from vendors in your country or you can set up a sell offer on our marketplace if it's one of our major supported currencies.

Last week I ordered 2 boxes of ApiFonda 15 kilograms each. Now the guy I bought my bees from said he used this as well. He even showed me how he puts the box right on top of the frames. I didn't think anything of this because even the company's website I bought it from shows them putting the full box right on top of the frames.
As I was putting it on I was thinking to myself how the am I going to get this off again to check the hives. I haven't tried ApiFonda before it seamed very gooey. But I plopped it down anyway, probably killing a few bees in the process 15 kilograms is heavy.
Last night after work Ole came over he his a very nice man from my local bee school hes in his 70's and has had bees for over 18 years. He came over to mark my queens for me, I'm to worried about hurting the queen to do it myself next summer I'm going to practice on drones.
When he saw what I had done with the two boxes he was shocked. He had never seen it done like that before. He told me how they normally cut off a chunk that's around 1 kilogram and put that on top under some plastic. It took us about 5 minutes to figure out how to get it off. Ole was stung on the hands a few times he doesn't where gloves and the girls where not all that happy about the huge sticky box being removed. Even the frames where stuck to this mess..... Yuck!
To make a long story short we managed to remove the boxes from both the hives. We only found one of the queens but at least shes marked now. He says I'm doing everything right (with the exception of boxes on the hives) that they are both very strong happy bee families. Both queens are laying well and they still need more stores for the winter, he told me to feed them more sugar syrup and to put 1 kilogram of that stuff back on at a time.
Last night I took two sheets of wax paper and put the Fonda between them and rolled it out to about 2 cm thick. I cut the wax paper to shape and put that on the hives. The bees will be able to get to it though the sides of my little Fonda pancake, and it will keep sticky gooey mess off the frames.
So Live and Learn.
