Jibcom provides a total solution to the communication needs for
the jib mounted camera. The Jibcom system consists of the IF-100 camera interface module, CH-200 control head
module with swivel locking mount clamp and jib arm cable. Individual camera interface cables are specific to each
brand and model of camera and provide connection from the camera to the interface module. Active circuitry converts
camera intercom, program audio and intercom microphone signal paths from low level, un-balanced signals to high
level, electronically balanced signals for the trip down the jib arm cable. Opto-isolators buffer all camera tally
and switching functions to protect the camera from potential hum and RF interference. Both the camera interface
cables and double shielded jib arm cable have been carefully selected to offer excellent shielding properties and
remain highly flexible in all temperature conditions. Jibcom internally generates a local side tone with level
adjustment available on the control head. Power for Jibcom is derived from the camera, no other power source is
The CH-200 Control head features individual
digital level and pan controls which provide the operator ability to "mix" intercom and program audio as desired.
Viewfinder and intercom mic switching is controlled by an internal microprocessor that provides "Smart Touch"
switching functions which are either momentary or latching depending on button touch. Switching controls include
Mic on/off, with LED indicators for each of the two intercom channels and external viewfinder switching with LED
indicators for up to 3 camera external viewfinder selections. Red and green tally LED's are located on the control
head. An optional ET-1 external tally indicator is available to provide additional tally indication that can be
located at the operators video monitor. An additional external tally connection is provided on the IF-100 interface
module to accommodate an ET-1 tally indicator for a jib mounted tele-prompter. The control head and interface modules feature rugged all aluminum
enclosures. The control head has a sealed, water resistant, membrane type button panel. A standard 5 pin

HOLLY SPRINGS, N.C. – Alec Bivins has been selected as one of the starting pitchers for the 2017 Coastal Plains League All-Star Game. Bivins will be the starting pitcher for the West squad.
Bivins, is a 6-3, 185-pound rising senior from Lawndale, N.C. During the 2017 season for the Lions, Bivins recorded the second most innings pitched on the team (55.2). He had a 4-5 record on the mound with two complete games and a 5.34 ERA. He struck out 41 batters (6.63 avg.) while walking only eight hitters all season.
Mars Hill Head Baseball Coach Aaron Rembert stated, "What a great honor to be named the starter for the West in the CPL All-Star Game. There are some really good arms in the league and it is just a testament to Alec and the work he has put in over the last several years. It doesn't surprise me because the coaches and players see how much work he puts in everyday to get himself ready to pitch. He has turned himself into a great pitcher that definitely belongs on this stage and he has earned it."
The Coastal Plain League announced the rosters for the 2017 All-Star Game to be held in Holly Springs, N.C. at the North Main Athletic Complex July 9-10. This marks the 19th year the CPL has played an all-star game, with last year's ending in a 4-3 win by the East All-Stars.
Players are separated by division and will be competing in front of a large contingency of scouts as well as fans. Since the game is being played in the Holly Springs Salamanders home ballpark, the East All-Stars will be the home team while the West All-Stars will serve as the visitors.
For the fourth straight year, the CPL will turn to its fans to select their favorite of five candidates for the East and West All-Star teams respectively. In the East, Anthony Maselli (Edenton / Boston College), Jayson Newman (Fayetteville / Cal State Northridge), Sam Griggs (Peninsula / Southern Indiana), Justin Dean (Wilmington / Lenoir-Rhyne) and Josh Ladowski (Wilson / North Carolina) earned a spot on the final vote ballot. In the West, Clark Brinkman (Asheboro / Creighton), Jackson Mims (Gastonia and Charlotte), Ike Freeman (HP-Thomasville / North Carolina), Zachary Spivey (Lexington County / Bethune-Cookman) and Zach Michalski (Martinsville / NC Central) were named finalists.
The vote will take place starting Monday, July 3 at 12 p.m. (noon) and run through Tuesday, July 4 at 12 p.m. (noon), with an announcement coming later that day.
On the mound to start for the East will be Will Hartsell of Morehead City who was also the starter for the CPL Select Team that beat the USA Collegiate National Team 10-0 earlier this month. The right-hander out of Charleston Southern holds a perfect 0.00 over 20 innings pitched to go along with 28 strikeouts and only three walks for a .186 batting average against.
For the West the starter will be Alec Bivins of Forest City and Mars Hill University who holds a 2.42 ERA across three starts for a 3-0 record. The right-hander has struck out 23 while walking only three across 26 innings pitched to help the Owls to the First Half Championship.
The All-Star Event covers July 9-10 at the North Main Athletic Complex in Holly Springs, N.C. An All-Star Fan Fest with games, vendors, player autographs and more will be available to fans prior to the Home Run Derby on July 9. The CPL All-Star Game will take place on Monday, July 10 starting at 7 p.m.

Where Every Cat Matters and Every Cat has a Story
Friends of Felines Rescue Center, Defiance, OH 43512
Name: LeLe
Birthday: September 14, 2004
Came to live in Cats Cove: July, 2005
Favorite Treat/Toy: Temptations Beef and Chicken Flavor
Hi everyone and welcome to Sweatin with Sevaun! I'm Sevaun your hostess. Speaking of hostess, I hear that twinkies and ring dings may be in trouble, so please stock up now. Right after our exercise session today, please go visit your local grocer and buy in bulk. They have a shelf life of 2 years so don't worry about them going bad. Today's Special Guest is LeLe. Take it away LeLe!
Hi, everyone, I'm LeLe. I was born September 15, 2004. I came to live in Cats Cove in July, 2005. I was born in a barn at a horserace track. All my other brothers and sisters found homes, except for me. So I had to stay at the racetrack by myself. I really loved to watch my horse friends run around the track. They were so proud when they would win a race. They would get extra hay and apples if they won. Sometimes though, it was scary with the horses. They are so big and sometimes they wouldn't pay attention to where they were walking. I always had to keep an eye open for a big hoof.
There was this very nice Doctor that would come and treat my horse friends. Her name was Dr. Cindy. She would talk to me when she came and tell me that she also worked at this place that had lots and lots of cats. One day Dr. Cindy picked me up and said, "little girl, you are going to get stepped on one day. And I won't have anything to do with that. You are going to live with my friend Jacci."
So Dr. Cindy put me in a crate and drove me all the way to momma Jacci's. The first thing I asked momma Jacci was where were the horses. She laughed and said, "you don't have to worry about any horses stepping on you here. So she brought me out to Cats Cove.
The first cat I met was Jonah. He was real nice to me. So was Simone and Muffin. But I didn't really have a best friend until my friend La Donna came a couple of years later. She and I share a torti-friendship. Us torti's must stick together. I used to be kind of shy, but when La Donna and I are together I feel much better.
I love the days when I get to go and run on the farm. The best thing is that there are no horses that might step on me. Someone once told me I would never survive if Sevaun or a horse stepped on me. So I keep my distance from Sevaun. Oh, sorry Sevaun, but you can be clumsy sometimes.
When momma Jacci calls all the Cove Cats in for supper, everyone comes running. Not me, because I always come in just before supper. I got used to avoiding stampede's at the race track.
My favorite treat is Temptations, beef and chicken flavor. I just love those!
I did want to share one last thing with you. This is a secret so don't tell anyone, ok. I learned this from my days back on the race track. The night before a big race, the horses all get together and decide who is going to win. Sometimes they draw straws from the big hay stacks, but usually someone eats one before everyone has drawn, so normally they go by who could eat the most apples in 30 seconds.
Well, that's a little about me. Thanks for hearing my story. Now back to you Sevaun.
Thanks LeLe. And special thanks for that tip. Well, let's get to our workout session today! OK, lay down with your belly on the ground. Put both front paws forward and both rear legs behind you. Put your head down, now up. Ok, put your head down again, now up. Tuck both paws underneath you chest and roll over. Stretch all your paws out, then back in. Wow, that was great.
Well that's all for today. This is Sevaun from Cats Cove saying:
Keep it real cats, and make sure you've licked your hoomin today!

{how to make the best cake pops}
10 comments:
soooo I've yet to make these. I think it's time. Yours look great.ReplyDelete
okay this makes so much more sense than trying to use those cake pop machines and baking trays. I may finally attempt these now!ReplyDelete
Wahoo! Just in time to attempt for Ollys birthday!! (and if they fail i can just eat them all to hide the evidence!)ReplyDelete
this looks like perfection and I will definitely be making these...now to find an occasion!ReplyDelete
been wanting to try out the task of cake pops for some time now. totally excited to learn from your methods!!ReplyDelete
I've been dying to try cake pops- love them! thank you so much for sharing!! :)ReplyDelete
Those are perfect--I envy your skills.ReplyDelete
I have been wanting to try making cake pops so this tutorial will come in handy! Thanks for sharing!ReplyDelete
I had one of those cake pop gadgets that you plug in and make 8 at a time. It was not a fun experience, sold it and never looked back. You make this so much easier. I will tackle this now. Just leave it on the blog so that I can return to it! lol Thank you for making it so much better.ReplyDelete
Yes yes yes! You do it the same way I do it and I swear it's taken me years to make it perfect as well! The freezer man, that's the key to keeping them on the stick! RIP all those delicious cake pops that were lost in the chocolate!ReplyDelete

The Internet of Things (IoT) will be huge in several ways. The forces that are driving it and the benefits that are motivating it are increasingly numerous, as more and more organizations, industries, and technologists catch the IoT bug.
The number of connected devices on the IoT network will be huge. One estimate says that the number will be nearly 40 billion, which is approximately 30 devices for each and every active social network user in the world. That is actually a conservative estimate. Another analyst predicts that "trillions of sensors" will comprise the IoT.
The quantity of data being collected and analyzed in and through the IoT will be huge. No one can predict this "ginormous data" volume reliably, but we frequently see articles that mention zettabytes, yottabytes, brontobytes, and even as high as geopbytes. For example: it is already true that sensors on a single Boeing aircraft jet engine can generate 20 terabytes of data per hour; the future astronomy optical telescope LSST (Large Synoptic Survey Telescope) will produce about 200 petabytes of data in its survey lifetime; and the future astronomy radio telescope ensemble SKA (Square Kilometer Array) will alone produce several exabytes per day as it senses the changes and behaviors of objects in the Universe. The Universe! – so, maybe we really are building the Internet of Everything after all. Each of these examples corresponds to one single node out of the billions (or trillions) that will be collecting and delivering data through the IoT. Those are huge "devices", whereas most devices on the IoT will be small (e.g., your home thermostat, your car tires, your toaster oven, and everything else).
The economic impact and benefits of the IoT will be huge. Gartner predicts that the aggregated value and economic benefit of the IoT will exceed $1.9 trillion in the year 2020 alone. The analysts at McKinsey & Company (who predicted for us in 2012 the current, and worsening, shortage of data scientists to manage and work with big data) have looked at the IoT also and have identified 6 major benefits (at least) that the IoT will bring:
Tracking behavior for real-time marketing;
Enhanced situational awareness;
Sensor-driven decision analytics;
Process optimization;
Optimized resource consumption; and
Instantaneous control and response in complex autonomous systems.
Associated with these benefits (and others) are the major driving forces that are pushing us at an increasing pace toward full IoT development and deployment. These forces include (at least) the following 8 motivating factors:
Ubiquitous networks – personal wi-fi on your mobile phone and on every other device. Everyone (and everything) wants and needs to be connected.
Connected computing – we want all of our devices, phones, televisions, music players, vehicles, etc. to keep track of what we are doing, viewing, reading, and listening to as we move through our day, from place to place – the handoffs from device to device are already happening.
Ubiquitous sensors – on everything. It is already here – the Internet of Everything and the wearables revolution.
Intelligence at the periphery of the network – Jim Gray, the visionary database guru from Microsoft, envisioned smart sensors acting as a mini-database with embedded machine learning algorithms. Here is how he said it (10 years ago): "Intelligence is moving to the periphery of the network. Each disk and each sensor will be a competent database machine."
Analytics-as-a-Service – the API and App economies are already vast and growing – this enables any "thing" to "do something interesting" as long as it can connect to an API or invoke an App that performs a network-based service. The "thing" is a data generator and/or collector that also learns from, makes predictions, and maybe even takes data-driven actions in response to the data that are collected (through the versatility and convenience of an App or API call).
Marketing automation – mobile customer engagement, geolocation, Apple's iBeacon, etc. are all creating a network of knowledge about customers' locations, intentions, preferences, and buying patterns. Of course, this degree of location-based knowledge needs to strike the right balance between user privacy and the timely delivery of useful products and services to that user.
Supply Chain Analytics – delivering just-in-time products at the point of need (including the use of RFID-based tracking). Essentially, everything is a customer (including machines, automobiles, manufacturing plants, ATM machines, etc.), and the IoT is monitoring, watching, and waiting for a product need to arise.
Aging workforce! Really? – Yes! There is a huge hiring gap in manufacturing, which is pushing toward more automation, robotics, M2M (Machine-to-Machine), machine log mining, 3-D printing, predictive and prescriptive analytics in the machines that are doing that work for us. As the classic rock song "2525" predicted would happen in the year 5555: "some machine is doing that for you."
One of the major developers of IoT in the industrial environment is GE – check out the excellent recent article on "GE's Vision for the Industrial Internet of Things".
Several big data platforms are beginning to investigate the data challenges, communication standards, analytics requirements, and technology responses that the Internet of Things will bring to operational analytics and supply chain environments, but very few are architected to handle IoT. The data challenges include: high input rate, streaming (time-series) data, many small files, and the need for fast micro-adjustments in the operational environment. The biggest technology challenge will be the integration of everything: big data, cloud, billions of devices (IoT and M2M), and the network fabric.
All aspects of the IoT are likely to be huge, if not ginormous! As Bruce Modell (storage solution architect for CDW) has said: "Move over big data, here come ginormous data!" To learn more about the Internet of things, go here.

The joys of a new school year are upon us! There's a nervous excitement in the air. For many, a door is about to open. There will be an entirely new group of people entering the east Baltimore campus. They'll have Orientations, meet-ups and everyone will be "finding their way" around the Hopkins medical campus.
Whether you're a newbie or a veteran, we invite one and all to take a look at what the Welch Library offers. Our "reDISCOVER" campaign succinctly spells out what we can bring to your educational and learning experience.
Also, take a minute to look over our library webpage. Our classes cover a wide-range of resources, and to say they're popular would be an understatement. Translation --- don't wait to sign up! While you're perusing our site, don't forget to find your Informationist.
Want a few facts about the Welch Library Collections. Well our electronic collection includes more than 7,000 electronic journals, more than 400 databases, more than 11,000 e-books and more than 2,000 videos.
And if you've got questions swirling everywhere you turn, our Welch FAQ page has got answers. If you can't find the answer there --- our contact info is featured on our webpage, go ahead and give us a shout (by e-mail or phone). We also have a robust social media component. Take a glance at our social media page and team.
Once you "get your bearings," come on over for a visit. Our recent renovations make our 2nd floor THEE ideal study space on campus. Don't take my word for it, stop over and decide for yourself.
The moral of our blog today is: don't be a stranger. Whatever research you're doing, it's hard to get away from us. You may not even come to our webpage, or physically enter the library but you'll still be using journals, databases or ebooks that the Library provides. You're bound to end up using our resources sooner, rather than later. Many patrons don't come to the library, or go to our webpage but they're VERY aware of our presence. All this is just to say.....we're here for you.
And while you're gearing up for a new year, remember this quote from Philosopher John Dewey….

Next a central defender who is still to this day the most expensive player ever purchased by the club. He spent nearly six years at Underhill and captained the side to two play off semi finals
Gregory Heald was born in Enfield on 26th September 1971 and started his career aged 11 at Leyton Orient and representing England Schoolboys before joining Norwich City as a apprentice in 1988 featuring in their youth side.
He joined Enfield in 1993 and spent a season at Southbury Road and helped the club to narrowly miss out on promotion to the Conference from the Diadora Premier League.
John Still, then manager at Peterborough, snapped up his signature for £35,000 where Greg, partnering another future Bee in Gary Breen, featured in over 100 games scoring 6 goals.
In August 1997 with Still now in charge at Underhill Heald put pen to paper to sign for Barnet and the transfer fee of £130,00 is still a club record.
It was for a rather auspicious occasion that Greg made his Bees debut at his former club Norwich City in the League Cup 1st round 1st leg on Tuesday 12th August 1997. Barnet lost the game 2-1 but won an exciting return at Underhill winning 3-1 on the night (4-3 on aggregate) coming from a goal down at half time. Greg scored the first before two goal Sean Devine intervened! The line up at Carrow Road that evening in front of 5,429 was:
Lee Harrison, Sammy Stockley, Greg Heald, Jon Ford, Lee Howarth, Michael Harle, Warren Goodhind, Billy Manuel, Danny Mills, Sean Devine and Kenny Charlery. Subs: David McDonald, Paul Wilson and Dean Samuels.
Forming a central defence threesome with Ford and Howarth, which was a trusted formula for Still, in the next round the Bees drew Middlesbrough. At the Riverside Stadium Greg had, in my opinion, one of his greatest games for Barnet. He superbly marshalled a defence that was very unfortunate to concede a solitary goal. "Lee Harrison in goal was fantastic that night and we were all so tight. In the return at Barnet we held on for 45 minutes but lost 2-0. They were a very good side with Emerson, Paul Merson, Andy Townsend and Mikkel Beck who I was marking" said Greg.
|Howarth and Heald
Making 50 appearances and scoring five goals, Greg captained the team to a seventh placed finish in Division Three that season and on a ferocious afternoon at Underhill in the first leg of the play-off semi against Colchester United he scored the only goal in a 1-0 Barnet win. "We should have finished them off there and then but they were a very physical side." The infamous second leg at layer Road still wrangles with Bees fans because of a last minute penalty appeal which, had it been awarded and we had scored, Barnet would have been at Wembley. "It was a poor decision by Mr Heilbron" says Greg "It was a stone wall penalty and not obstruction on Dean Samuels and at 3-2 on aggregate at that point we could have won it on away goals. We deserved more because we were down to 10 men after an hour as I lost my defensive partner Lee Howarth who was sent off ".
Missing the first half of the following season due to an ankle and then a back injury making only 19 first team appearances (2 goals), Greg returned to the side in the New Year of 1999 at home to Shrewsbury Town. "Mark Arber and Mike Basham had joined the club and we became the defensive three". The Bees finished a disappointing 16th in the league but found their feet again the following season with another play-off semi final against another of his old clubs in Peterborough United. Barnet were frankly outplayed in the two legs loosing on aggregate 5-1. Greg had featured in 46 games scoring five times.
|Great Tackle v Torquay May 2001
The 2000-1 season was of course our relegation season back to the Conference and Greg agrees with most that with a side full of such good players it still amazes him that the club struggled. "I had formed a very solid understanding with Mark Arber by then." In the final "loser loses all" game at Underhill against Torquay, in which Greg scored incidentally, the match was interrupted in the second half by two male streakers. Greg is rather famously captured on film (see picture) lashing out at the trespassers. "I lost it for sure with the idiots, I still believed we could get back in the game and concentration could have been lost". Many players I have spoken to since then have admitted that Greg did rather have a small temper on him! Heald make 45 appearances that season again scoring five times.
In 2001-2 Barnet finished 5th in their first season back in the Conference - Greg featuring 44 times scoring twice. "That was hard graft, some of the grounds and pitches we had to play on were very difficult, many League standard players struggled " he said. In April 2002, he was selected for the England non-league international side to play Holland at Yeovil's New Huish with team mate Mark Gower.
His final season at Underhill saw the club finish a disappointing 11th but it was the first of two rebuilding sessions at the club that culminated in the Championship win in 2004-5.
On March 27th 2003 (Transfer Deadline Day), Barnet sold Heald and team mate Wayne Purser to Leyton Orient for a joint fee of £18,000. Not the greatest return financially for the club but they had certainly got value for money with Heald's 100% plus input during his six year stay. He had made a further 28 appearances scoring four goals
Greg's final game in Black and Amber was at home to Hereford United on Saturday March 22nd 2003. The following line up won 2-1 with goals from Neil Midgley and Junior Agogo in front of 1,588:
Danny Naisbitt, Craig Pope, Greg Heald, Lee Pluck, Lee Flynn, Guy Butters, Mark Gower, Keith Rowland, Fraser Toms, Wayne Purser and Neil Midgley. Subs: Junior Agogo, Matt Langston, Chris Cashman, Lette Baimass-Jellow and Ricky Millard.
Moving back south Greg joined Aldershot for a season before he started to study hard for his degree in Sports Science and prepare for life after football as a teacher " I have a wife and young family to consider now". To support this he had a spell as a Fire Officer based at Potters Bar Fire Station while turning out part time for Thurrock before a year later accepting the position of Youth Team Coach at Adams Park Wycombe for a while. "I loved it but it was full hands on 7 days a week"
Entering full time teaching at Latimar School in Enfield he still couldn't resist one last fling with the game and briefly joined Enfield Town at the age of 37. Greg is today a PE teacher and Head of Year at a school in Harpendon.
Greg Heald is another player that our club was fortunate to witness not only from a playing point of view but from a "supporters player" point of view too. Always approachable with an infectious sense of humour he still follows our fixtures and was a fairly low key regular visitor to Underhill in its final years. He should be welcomed any time with open arms at the Hive and who knows he might just offer to pull the jersey on again even at 42.

Large black bean bag chairs are ideal for spaces such as dorm rooms, theater rooms and more. Whether you are purchasing an Ultimate Sack bean bag chair for your child, teenager or to cuddle with your significant other, these chairs are durable, affordable and fun.
We offer over sixty colors and fabrics for our bean bags. You can choose a five foot bean bag chair with a footstool, or a four foot chair for your kids. There is even a six foot option for you and your whole family to sit on together.
When you think of large black bean bag chairs, you probably think of polystyrene, or small plastic pellets that are generally used in lower quality chairs. High quality bean bag chairs usually have a high end foam as the filler. At Ultimate Sack, we use new, fresh, springy foam pieces in our high quality sack chairs and furniture. This foam expands as it breaks apart, creating a chair that is flexible and contours to your body for the ultimate comfort.
Large Black Bean Bag Chairs You Can Afford
Our bean bag chairs are durable, comfortable and fun. Plus, they are affordable, since we manufacture our sack chairs and ship them for free directly to you. We carefully make, package and ship your chair within days of you placing your order, so you can have your new bean bag chair in a timely manner. We use durable materials that withstand normal wear and tear. You get all this at almost half the price of many of our quality competitors.
We started making our chairs in the basement of our house; we now utilize two warehouses. We are still a family owned and operated manufacturer of bean bag chairs based in Hudson, Ohio. It all started when we wanted to purchase additional sacks; we bought them from an alternative company to save money. We were completely dissatisfied with the construction, durability and comfort of these bean bags. So we decided to do our own research, and a lot of trial and error, to come up with the Ultimate Sack bean bag chairs we manufacture and sell today.
We know you will be satisfied when you purchase one of our ultimate sacks. Many of our customers trust us to provide them with quality merchandise at affordable prices. They also trust us to stand behind our products with a straightforward, limited three-year warranty. You will be impressed with the selection, especially when you compare us against other bean bags and brands. Order your Ultimate Sack bean bag chair today through our website with our safe and secure online ordering feature. We look forward to shipping you your own large black bean bag chairs.

The green light at the end of the dock
The end of a dock. In the silence – that's not so silent – of a summer night. Halyards clinking on masts, laughter and porch light drifting across the water. Some docks, like Jay Gatsby's, have a green light to give people their bearings, tiny lighthouses showing the way through the darkened harbor. Others, like the green light at the end of the NavCad dock in Annapolis — a salute to those eternally on patrol — are comforting beacons. Like the US Navy, leaving a light on for those arriving late.
Here at Spruce Point the dock is a sociable focal point for guests arriving by yacht, be it the Kennedys and the Glenns, or others who prefer to be anonymous. There's something about a launch like our Bright Line, nestling alongside and bringing the waterborne ashore – families, couples, summer people and their guests. Somehow the launch drivers, like our Ken, know instinctively how to navigate among the anchor buoys, appearing with perfect timing out of the darkness like a special waterbird who knows where the flock is gathering close.
Bright Line comes from a long line of yacht club launches, sensitive as a coach horse to her cargo of the silks and seersucker of a summer night. The Spruce Point dock, like the floorboards of our historic Inn, springs with the steps of new feet, new stories, bound for the casual luxury of an August night.
And beneath the dark glass surface of Boothbay, Spruce Point's heart "beats on, borne back ceaselessly into the past." Etching the stories of the perfect summer, the perfect night, the perfect company into our shared history.

Grim tidings
Well, it wasn't all grim in my posts this week on Marilyn Stowe's Family Law & Divorce Blog, which included:
Déjà vu: Mother's rights breached by failure of Polish courts to enforce return orders - The ECHR case Oller Kaminska v. Poland.
The Courts Service: modernisation, or just mismanagement? - Which is it?
The capacity to marry and the consequences of marriage - The unusual case Re DMM.
Beware those with grim tidings of the divorcing hour - I lose the will to live.
Have a good weekend.

The Japanese don't want them. Nobody except China and the US grow them. So how do you feel about eating genetically-engineered papaya?
We asked Chinese shoppers who was responsible for making sure their food was safe. What do you think they said?
We asked Monsanto to get their GE hands off China's rice.
For the Chinese, rice is life. That's why we took to the streets of Beijing today and told Monsanto where to stick their GE seeds.
Greenpeace activists hold banners in Monsanto's Beijing office building.
Who doesn't love papaya? Papayas make a mean Thai salad and are pretty good sliced up with ice cream. Greenpeace China went shopping but found their local supermarkets' papaya wasn't all that tasty.
Chinese supermarkets are selling homegrown GE papayas.
Pesticides are like poison on your plate.
Hungry? Well, you won't be after you watch our video below on pesticide use in China or hear about our latest research which puts big name supermarkets to shame.
Our polar bear wallpapers list out which brands of snack foods and drinks have said no to GE and those which haven't.

Low Rates, Pricing Bottoms, Spur Increase in Lake Area Luxury Unit Home Sales For 2012
Several areas and price ranges reported excellent results so far, with the surprise of the year being the robust activity on the west shore of Lake Norman in the under 1 million dollar waterfront segment, where 35 properties have sold so far this year. Cornelius has paced the east side of Lake Norman, particularly in the 500k-999k range, where 73 homes have sold compared with 54 last year, an increase of 35%. Activity in those segments also spurred an improvement in pricing in some areas like The Peninsula, where the under 1 million range saw an uptick in average sold per foot pricing from 163.00 per square foot in 2011, to 172/sf thus far in 2012. Segments in Mooresville, The Point, Davidson, and some areas on the north shores of Lake Norman also showed upticks in unit sales, as well as modest improvement in pricing.
Ultra Luxury Segment-What may come as a slight surprise, given the recent headline stealing 4.5 and 7.5 million dollar transactions on the lake, is the fact that the range above 2 million in list price, has underperformed relative to both the lower ranges, and last year, when 16 deals closed versus the 9 lake wide so far in 2012. The high end deals of recent months will likely help appraisal values given they were done at solid per foot prices, but there remains a pretty competitive level of inventory relative to the number of actual sales. The range is such a small subset of the market that a handful of deals can change the dynamic, from lagging to robust, yet it still seems there's more work to do in terms of inventory reduction in this range (there are 34 homes lake wide on the market over 2 million).
Inventory-Inventory levels have continued to show improvement in most areas, and 2 of the 3 price ranges we track in the luxury space. At the height of the recession, there were close to 900 luxury homes on the market, today, there are 433, including 34 over 2 million, and 11 over 3 million. Distressed inventory has also remained manageable, with 29 homes on the market, or less than 6% of total listed luxury inventory (and just 1 in River Run, 2 in The Point, and 3 in The Peninsula over 500,000). Slim distressed pickings in the high demand communities.
Banks have continued to unwind distressed properties at a pace that the markets have been able to manage the past year and a half, and while Notices of Default did trend up slightly for a period this year, it so far has not translated into another spike in actual distressed homes hitting the market.
Of the new metrics we've introduced, our smart phone inquiry tracking has shown a decrease in total drive by traffic of 35% since mid-September, something we view as typical for the season, given showings begin to decline this time of year as well. One encouraging factor coming from our smart phone tracking, is the 36% makeup of out of state inquiries at a time of the year that we anticipated this proportion would drop. At the height of the summer, out of state drive by inquiries were running at 50% of total, so while we've had a drop, its indicative of a remaining high level of interest overall.

I went with Luke to take photos of no. 8, the upstairs flat for sale a couple of days ago. It reminded me of our happy few days camping out there when we first moved to Forgebank and our house wasn't quite ready. Some of Luke's photos are great so I thought I'd share some of them and my memories of that time with you all.
This is the view from the side window of the river, the common house terrace and the sedum roof.
Terrace F looks lovely in the evening sun (right).
Back in September Polly and Martha loved sitting in that window watching the builders and their JCBs...
To the south you can see the other side of the river. While we were staying there the trees were gradually changing colour; at this time of year you can see the cyclists and walkers on the Millenium path in the distance. Of course from the balcony you get a 180 degree view of all this, how lovely!
Gill downstairs is lovely, the perfect neighbour, always calm and smiling. When I found myself with a just fallen asleep baby Isla amongst a flat full of bouncy older children I just carried her downstairs so she could enjoy her sleep in the peace and quiet of Gill's flat! We only heard some just discernible music once and apparently she was playing it very loud, and incredibly all she heard of our noisy family of four was Polly's little footsteps occasionally when she ran around!
The flat will be included in the tour 1.30pm this Sunday (27th January). Meet at the Common House, 9 Forgebank Walk, Halton, Lancaster LA2 6FD if you want to come along.

Cohousing Christmas
Some people hate Christmas...all that family, materialism, jollity. Me I love it, but I live with someone who is not so keen (a bit bah humbug even), so it was great to have people around who love the build up as much as I do.
Everything became an opportunity to have fun and to do stuff ourselves - the talents that emerged were phenomenal. There was the evening spent decorating the Common House Christmas tree - we all got to bring our favourite decorations and watch the children have a ball (while having one ourselves).
Then there was Pink Elephant, a sophisticated version of Secret Santa. We all brought along presents and had the chance to swap them for the presents other people had brought, so for once we could get the one we really wanted. I ended up with the promise of a loaf of freshly baked bread delivered to my door on the morning of my choice, but it could have been a mini bee hive, an outdoor thermometer or black salt.
I managed to get back to Lancaster for New Year's Eve. When someone suggested a cohousing revue, some cringed, but enough of us were brave/foolhardy enough to give it a go. In the end it was an extraordinary show of talents: verbal, musical and comical. We have saved some of the rhymes and lyrics for posterity...

Busman's holiday? A cohousing weekend away
One of the Lancaster Cohousing highlights of 2011 was when we came together at Arnside YHA for a weekend in December , to celebrate signing our formal agreements to lease. We took advantage of the YHA Winter Warmer offer, which is a great deal... those of us who weren't members already took out a group membership, and we pretty much took the place over for two nights.
A year on, many of us have moved in and we see each other all the time... but in October Lucy sent a message round saying that she and Huw and their family were going to spend a weekend at Arnside again in December, if anyone fancied joining them. And quite a few of us did!
It's well known that train journeys make you hungry, even short ones, so when we arrived in Arnside it seemed only right to head for the (excellent) fish and chip shop. Some had peas, some had beans, some had coffee, some had tea, some had juice, but we all enjoyed it very much indeed.
This was all in preparation for walking up Arnside Knott, of course, which we did in two parties: the advance group, with the smaller walkers and their pie-carriers went first, while the others took our bags to the YHA then caught us up. We made it to the top before they reached us, which was very pleasing.
There was nothing else for it, we had to go to the pub. On the way there, we met Jon cycling up the hill, coming to join us after a run further up the coast. He didn't take much persuading to turn round and come with us to the Albion, where ale, mulled wine and more hot chocolate were enjoyed.
We did make it back up the hill to the hostel in the end... to find our various rooms and then head down for dinner. Arnside YHA has its own chef and everything is cooked to order on site. Apparently this is quite unusual... I say apparently because I am relatively new to youth hostelling as a grown up, in fact if you'd told me three years ago that I'd be a YHA member by now I'd have laughed you out of town... but I can report that the food was splendid. As was the sleep -- if you'd told me three years ago that I'd be going to bed at 9.30pm on a Saturday night I'd have laughed you out of town again, but it's tiring, all this eating and walking up hills and beer drinking.
One thing that was interesting though was how aware I was of the draughty old building, and though I was perfectly warm enough in bed under my YHA duvet and blanket, how hard it was getting undressed in a chilly bedroom, so used am I to my nice warm eco-home.

Why go to university in Australia?
UK students are choosing Australia as a study destination in increasing numbers and below are just a few of the reasons why.
The quality of education available at the universities in Australia is of an exceptionally high standard and this is reflected in the fact that many of the institutions are ranked among the best in the world. For example, in the Times Higher Education Rankings 2012-2013 six Australian universities were ranked in the top 100 in the world. The qualifications offered at the universities in Australia are respected internationally and are recognised as being of a very high class. The expertise and international standing of the universities are only set to increase in the coming years with the Australian government stating that higher education is a priority area and demonstrating their commitment by pledging to invest a substantial amount in higher education.
There is excellent degree recognition between the UK and Australia, in part due to the fact that the education system is based on the UK model. For the vast majority of programmes, this means that qualifications will be fully recognised in the UK which is particularly important when it comes to professional degrees such as nursing, engineering and medicine.
The universities in Australia are recognised as being the best places in the world to study certain subjects and are known for their expertise in particular areas. These include physiotherapy, social work, geology, petroleum engineering, sports science and marine biology.
Many students chose to study at university in Australia in order to experience a unique side to the country, which they would not otherwise have the opportunity to do. Studying overseas, whether it is for three years or just six months, is a challenging, exciting and once in a lifetime experience that should not be missed! Choosing to study in Australia is an amazing opportunity to immerse oneself in the culture and lifestyle of the country and to take advantage of the incredible experiences that it has to offer.
Students who have studied overseas are also thought to have an edge in today's competitive graduate job market and Australian universities in particular are recognised as producing high quality, desirable graduates. Individuals who have studied overseas are thought of as being more independent, self-reliant, flexible and adaptable, all skills which are necessary to succeed in the workplace.
The flexibility of degrees in Australia also appeals to a lot of students. The structure of general degrees such as a Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science and Master of Commerce allows students to tailor a degree to incorporate many of their interests, giving students a wider choice of what modules they wish to study and allowing them to build a programme that is unique to their interests and future career aspirations.

The Texas Motor Speedway Media Relations Department is located on the 6th floor of The Speedway Club outside of Turn 1 of the speedway.
NORMAN, Oklahoma (October 25, 2017)
The following is an event recap with photo and video links from NASCAR Camping World Truck Series championship contender Christopher Bell returning to his hometown of Norman, Okla., on Tuesday and visiting with a reigning national champion – the University of Oklahoma men's golf team.
Event Recap
NASCAR Camping World Truck Series championship contender Christopher Bell arrived Tuesday in his hometown of Norman, Okla., for a different type of driving lesson. … And wedge game lesson. … And putting lesson.
The 22-year-old Bell discovered a passion for golf in the last year and there is nothing better to improve your game then some tips from the 2017 NCAA national champion University of Oklahoma men's golf team.
Bell joined several of the team members, including No. 1 player Brad Dalke, and assistant coach Bill Allcorn at the Charlie Coe Golf Learning Center that is part of the Jimmie Austin OU Golf Club, home course for the Sooners.
Bell, who drives the No. 4 JBL Toyota for Kyle Busch Motorsports, had an opportunity to get some driving, iron, chipping and putting lessons from Allcorn and the team to help improve his game. He also played the 141-yard, par-3 hole with the Sooners that is part of a brand-new, par-3 area of the practice facility.
Bell later enjoyed a visit to the OU campus, where he toured the Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial Stadium; the Sooners' football facilities and trophy displays; and Heisman Park, which features life-size, bronze statues of Heisman winners Billy Vessels, Steve Owens, Billy Sims and Jason White.
The Highlight
Allcorn surprised Bell by presenting him with an OU team golf bag that was monogrammed with his name as well as Nike OU golf shoes, golf hats and apparel. Bell reciprocated by presenting Allcorn with an autographed replica of his JBL Toyota racing helmet, autographed team hats and team apparel.
What They Are Saying
"That was really, really cool to get some golf tips from the national champions. It's something I won't soon forget for sure." – Kyle Busch Motorsports driver and Norman native Christopher Bell on his visit with the Sooners men's golf team.
"Actually I think there is. Golf – I'm still new to it – it's a lot mental, too. If you think you can do it, it's a lot easier to do it than if you walk up to the ball and say this is a tough shot. You're more likely to fail. That relates a lot to racing. If you believe in yourself and have confidence, it's a lot easier if you don't." – Bell on the similarities between racing and golf.
"I put so much pressure on myself to run good. I want to be the best really, really bad." – Bell on the pressures to succeed.
"For me personally, Texas is my favorite track since I started racing in NASCAR. Even with the repave (this year), my trucks have seemed to be good every time we've gone there. To win in the spring (summer) obviously gives me a little bit of extra confidence. Martinsville has been one of my struggle spots and I struggled at Phoenix last year, but I know my crew chief Rudy Fugle has a hand on Phoenix." – Bell on the upcoming Round of 6 tracks Martinsville, Texas and Phoenix.
"Next year is going to be a blast. To drive for Joe Gibbs Racing is something I would say I dreamed of as a kid but I didn't even think that was a possibility. So it is a dream come true to drive for him. To drive in the NASCAR XFINITY Series for the premier team is really, really special." – Bell on driving in the NASCAR XFINITY Series for Joe Gibbs Racing beginning in 2018.
"Having Christopher Bell here was awesome. What was cool about it is that he is close to the same age as our golfers so for him to just hang out with the guys and let our guys give him a glimpse of our world was neat." – University of Oklahoma assistant men's golf coach Bill Allcorn on Bell's visit with the team.
"I know it is completely different, but when it comes to athletic ability we love seeing guys compete at the highest level. So for him to get a glimpse of our players and see how we hit shots and be able to help him out was a fun day for everybody." – Allcorn on the mutual admiration among athletes.
Fast Fact
Bell, who won June's winstaronlinegaming.400, is looking to become just the third driver since 2004 to sweep the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series races at Texas Motor Speedway in the same season when he returns Friday, Nov. 3, for the JAG Metals 350 Driving Hurricane Harvey Relief. Ron Hornaday Jr. accomplished the feat in 2008 and then Johnny Sauter in 2012. The truck sweep has occurred just four times since Texas Motor Speedway began hosting two series races in 1999. The other occasions were 2002 and again in '03, both by Brendan Gaughan.
Bell, the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series regular-season champion, continues his quest for the series crown when the NASCAR Playoffs Round of 6 opens Saturday at Martinsville Speedway. The Round of 6 consists of Martinsville, JAG Metals 350 Driving Hurricane Harvey Relief at Texas Motor Speedway (Friday, Nov. 3) and Phoenix International Raceway (Friday, Nov. 10). Four drivers will advance to the Championship 4 and vie for the title at Homestead-Miami Speedway on Friday, Nov. 17. A win in any of those three races by a championship contender earns them an automatic berth in the Championship 4 while the remaining positions will be based off the point standings. … Bell will perform double duty during the Nov. 2-5 AAA Texas 500 NASCAR tripleheader weekend at Texas Motor Speedway. In addition to competing in the JAG Metals 350 for Kyle Busch Motorsports, he also will compete for Joe Gibbs Racing in the O'Reilly Auto Parts 300 XFINITY Series race on Saturday, Nov. 4. It will be his first start in the XFINITY Series at Texas Motor Speedway. … The University of Oklahoma, guided by head coach Ryan Hybl, defeated defending national champ Oregon, 3-1-1, in match-play format in May to capture the school's second national title in the program's history. The other came in 1989 under head coach Gregg Grost. … Oklahoma currently is ranked fifth in the nation during this fall season. … The defending national champions have two Dallas/Fort Worth players on the 11-man roster, junior Blaine Hale and sophomore Garrett Reband. Hale, of Dallas, played at Lake Highlands High School and Reband, of Fort Worth, played at Southwest Christian School and both were on hand for Bell's visit.

Better Living Through Wikipedia
Because Wikipedia never stops enlightening me, and because Citizendium (the "elitist, anti net-cultural counter-project to Wikipedia," as summed up by Florian Cramer) never stops boring me, I thought I'd post an annotated list of recent Wikipedia contrails. None of the following items can be found on Citizendium, and I'm not about to apply for the privilege to add them. Check the sidebar regularly to follow along at home.
- Art song: "Considered by afficionados to create musical experiences unsurpassed in sophistication, subtlety and dramatic truth." Well, then.
- Pneumatic tubes: Did you know about the 60-kilometer pneumatic-tube mail-delivery system in Prague? Paris had a similar network of pneumatic tubes in use for mail delivery until 1984.
- Savile Row: Mentally preparing to shell out for a bespoke suit.
- Travelator: That high-speed walkway they have in Paris should immediately be installed at the Columbus Circle subway station here in Manhattan. Note: "it has been estimated that commuters using a [high-speed walkway] twice a day would save 11.5 hours a year." Don't we need these in New York more than they need them in France? This Wikipedia visit took place after idly searching for the name of the song in the background of the Geico commercial with the indignant caveman at the airport (it's "Remind Me" by Royksopp).
- Cumberlandite: Extremely rare rock that only exists in Rhode Island. Often mistaken for meteorites; deemed sacred by the Nipmuck Indians.
- Steampunk: Cory Doctorow's posts on Boing Boing finally got me to investigate this further. I told you history blogging is the new Twitter.
- Graham cracker: Originally developed by Reverend Sylvester Graham to suppress "unhealthy carnal urges."
- 1 − 2 + 3 − 4 + · · ·: Good visuals.
- List of places blurred out on Google Maps: New York is currently the most blurred-out state.
- Coral Content Distribution Network: Cory Doctorow (there he is again!) used this to help distribute our recent 92Y Blog podcast of Kurt Vonnegut. Had to find out what the hell it is.

International Arbitration: Law and Practice in Switzerland
This book expounds the theory of international arbitration law. It explains in easily accessible terms all the fundamentals of arbitration, from separability of the arbitration agreement to competence-competence over procedural autonomy, finality of the award, and many other concepts. It does so with a focus on international arbitration law and jurisprudence in Switzerland, a global leader in the field. With a broader reach than a commentary of Chapter 12 of theSwiss Private International Law Act, the discussion contains numerous references to comparative law and its developments in addition to an extensive review of the practice of international tribunals.Written by two well-known specialists - Professor Kaufmann-Kohler being one of the leading arbitrators worldwide and Professor Rigozzi one of the foremost experts in sports arbitration - the work reflects many years of experience in managing arbitral proceedings involving commercial, investment, and sports disputes. This expertise is the basis for the solutions proposed to resolve the many practical issues that may arise in the course of an arbitration. It also informs the discussion of thearbitration rules addressed in the book, from the ICC Arbitration Rules to the Swiss Rules of International Arbitration, the CAS Code, and the UNCITRAL Rules. While the book covers commercial and sports arbitrations primarily, it also applies to investment arbitrations conducted under rules other thanthe ICSID framework.

Atelier Sauvage / Belgium
The "Anima" lamp is inspired by Miami Art Deco architecture. "Anima" is a reflection upon/on the aura and emotional influence of the objects. It is a sort of modern fetish, a benevolent object with which we develop a silent fascination. This first version plays with two contrasting wood essences, sycamore maple and pear tree, treated as naturally as possible to create an elegant and clean look, while future versions will feature playful and solar colors.

When Gov. Scott Walker moved to strip Wisconsin public employees of their collective-bargaining rights last year, a few weeks after taking office, it was clear that he wasn't doing it to save the state money. If that had been the case, he would have accepted the unions' agreement to pay far more in health care and pension costs. His real goal was political: to break the unions by demonizing their "bosses," ending their ability even to collect dues and removing them as a source of money and energy for Democrats.
On Tuesday, as Mr. Walker easily fought off a recall by a 7-point margin over his challenger, it became clear just how effective that strategy has been.
To start, labor failed to nominate its preferred candidate last month to run against Mr. Walker. Instead, Democrats chose Mayor Tom Barrett of Milwaukee, who then barely talked about collective-bargaining rights, sensing it would not help him. Nearly a third of union voters (presumably from private-sector unions) voted for Mr. Walker, exit polls showed, as did nearly half of voters from union households who were not union members.
Some of those union voters, like many others, undoubtedly felt that recalls should be reserved for official misconduct. But, clearly, over the course of 18 months, Mr. Walker and his allies managed to convince even union households in a former labor bastion that bargaining rights for public sector employees were bad for the state.
How did he do that? With the aid of more than $45.6 million, most of it from outside the state, that paid for ads praising him for his "courage" in taking on unions and attacking labor for its "selfish" intransigence. As one ad put it, "Labor union mobs led by Barack Obama's Organizing for America are trying to intimidate and harass Governor Walker and lawmakers in Madison, simply because they're finally doing the right thing."
Mr. Walker's campaign raised seven times as much money as Mr. Barrett's, much of it in six-figure checks from some of the same business interests contributing millions to Republican "super PACs" and advocacy groups this year, including Sheldon Adelson and Bob Perry.
This money has by no means bought a guarantee that Mitt Romney will seize Wisconsin in November; exit polls showed the same voters preferred President Obama by 51 percent to 44 percent. The state is improving economically, with a lower jobless rate than the nation, which may benefit the president as much as Mr. Romney.
But, from the beginning, the money behind Governor Walker was intended to turn a once-reliable blue state into a laboratory for Republican ideas, where business could grow free of union fetters, taxes could be cut and thousands of people could be removed from Medicaid rolls.
That's why David Koch, the billionaire industrialist whose family money was crucial to Mr. Walker's election in 2010, gave $1 million to the Republican Governors Association this year, which, in turn, ran ads supporting Mr. Walker. Mr. Koch said Mr. Walker's fight against public unions was "critically important."
The tactics worked in Wisconsin, and in several other states. Labor, so long in decline in the private sector, is also losing its clout in states and cities, unable to match or withstand the unfettered bank accounts of industry. The people who kept Mr. Walker and his policies in power are just getting started.

Plastic dashboards are easy to produce and often just as easy to scratch. Since a trip to the auto bodyworks garage is quite expensive when compared to the price of a dashboard repair kit, it's much more economical to do the job at home. The hard, moulded plastic that's used to make vehicle dashboards is heated to achieve its shape, so the application of more heat is sometimes all that's needed to repair one. Any dashboard repair kit that you purchase will have its own set of instructions, so for best results it's best to follow those instructions.
Clean the area where the damage has occurred. Soapy water will do the job, but you'll see better results if you use a plastic cleaner. Wipe the area down with a lint-free cloth to dry the area and remove any particles that may still be clinging to the scratches.
Heat the damaged area with a hair dryer or heat gun. Keep a close eye on the plastic as it's being heated because if it starts to melt you've created a much more serious cosmetic problem. Heat up only a small section at a time to avoid further damaging your dashboard.
Rub out the scratches with your fingertips. The plastic should be pliable enough to allow you to smooth out the scratches. Continue heating and rubbing until you've removed the entire scratch.
Clean the scratched area following the instructions in the previous section. The edges of the scratches should be cleaned up as well. Remove the jagged edges of the scratch using a utility knife or sandpaper. Surround the damaged area with masking tape so that you confine your repairs to the damaged area and don't damage any outlying sections of the dashboard.
Prepare the epoxy or other filler material as per the kit's instructions. Apply the filler to the damaged area with the kit's application tool (often a spatula). Wipe away the excess filler immediately so that it doesn't adhere to the undamaged plastic. Allow the filler to harden.
Sand the surface of the repaired scratch with a fine sandpaper until the edges are completely smooth. Paint over the repaired scratch with a matching dashboard paint to hide the repair work.
Most recent
- If you're using a liquid epoxy to repair the scratch, mix the paint into the epoxy while it's in its liquid state. This will give it a uniform colour all the way through so that you don't have to worry about reapplying the paint if it becomes scratched later.

July 14, 2015 Rats & Mice
Now is the time of year you might be noticing an increase in rodent activity. With the changes in the weather, increased rain and cooler temperatures the rodents will be trying to get out of the cold and into the warmth and comfort of your home. Here are some tips to help you and your loved ones from being invaded!
Seal Up!
Seal up holes inside and outside the home to prevent entry by rodents.
Mice can squeeze through a hole the size of a dime, and rats can squeeze through a hole the size of a quarter! Prevent rodents from entering the home by checking inside and outside the house for gaps or holes.
Where to look for gaps or holes inside your home:
• Inside, under, and behind kitchen cabinets, refrigerators and stoves.
• Inside closets near the floor corners.
• Around the fireplace.
• Around doors.
• Around the pipes under sinks and washing machines.
• Around the pipes going to hot water heaters and furnaces.
• Around floor vents and dryer vents.
• Inside the attic.
• In the basement or crawl space.
• In the basement and laundry room floor drains.
• Between the floor and wall juncture.
Where to look for gaps or holes outside your home:
• In the roof among the rafters, gables, and eaves.
• Around windows.
• Around doors.
• Around the foundation
• Attic vents and crawl space vents.
• Under doors.
• Around holes for electrical, plumbing, cable, and gas lines.
Fill small holes with steel wool. Put caulk around the steel wool to keep it in place. Use lath screen or lath metal, cement, hardware cloth, or metal sheeting to fix large holes. These materials can be found at your local hardware store. Fix gaps in trailer skirting and use flashing around the base of the house. If you do not remember to seal up entry holes in your home, rodents will continue to get inside. Outbuildings and garages should also be sealed to prevent the entrance of rodents.
Trap Up!
Trap rodents around the home to help reduce the rodent population.
Traps should be set in areas of interior activity. For outside rodent populations, your technician may install locked rodent bait stations, which are secured to the ground.
Clean Up!
Clean up rodent food sources and nesting sites
Prevent contact with rodents by cleaning up your home, workplace, or campsite.
Eliminate possible rodent food sources:
• Keep food in thick plastic or metal containers with tight lids.
• Clean up spilled food right away and wash dishes and cooking utensils soon after use.
• Keep outside cooking areas and grills clean.
• Always put pet food away after use and do not leave pet-food or water bowls out overnight.
• Keep bird feeders away from the house and utilize squirrel guards to limit access to the feeder by squirrels and other rodents.
• Use a thick plastic or metal garbage can with a tight lid.
• Keep compost bins as far away from the house as possible (100 feet or more is best).
• Keep grains and animal feed in thick plastic or metal containers with tight lids. In the evening, uneaten animal feed should be returned to containers with lids.
If storing trash and food waste inside the home, do so in rodent-proof containers, and frequently clean the containers with soap and water. Dispose of trash and garbage on a frequent and regular basis, and pick up or eliminate clutter.
Eliminate possible nesting sites outside the home. Elevate hay, woodpiles, and garbage cans at least 1 foot off the ground. Move woodpiles far away from the house (100 feet or more is best). Get rid of old trucks, cars, and old tires that mice and rats could use as homes. Keep grass cut short and shrubbery within 100 feet of the home well trimmed.

Heineken Premium Light Lager
Heineken Premium Light
Brewed by:
Heineken Nederland B.V.
Light Lager
Commercial Description:Brewed in the same high quality tradition as the original Heineken, but lighter in taste and with fewer calories and carbohydrates.
Being introduced in four select US markets beginning in June 2005: Phoenix, Arizona; Dallas, Texas; Tampa, Florida; and Providence, Rhode Island.
General Pricing:5l Mini Keg, ~$19.00 - $20.00
Background:Here we go again; the Bier Snob is on another light beer? What is this world coming to.
This was left over from a party. We had a 1/6 keg of Allagash White and a 5l mini keg of Heineken Light. Its funny how there were no leftovers of the good beer. At any rate, I figured I would review this since I can't seem to find a home for it.
Review:The beer pours a very clear pale straw color with a bright white head.
There are faint light malt and hop aromas on the nose. Not much but they are there.
I really can't describe the tasting experience as I normally would since there really is not much on the taste.
There is nothing upfront where you normally would have a sweet malt flavor. There is a very pleasant effervescence over the tongue and a clean dry finish. I guess you call this refreshing but that's because there really is not much to this beer. There is a slight aftertaste with a light malt flavor. I assume that there are hops here but they are not really detectable.
As it warms a little more flavor does come out. I may actually like this more than Bud Lite or Miller Light. Not that I liked either of them but it was a hoot doing a head to head review. http://www.johnsbierblog.com/2010/05/bud-light-vs-miller-lite.html
This is not my cup of tea but if you like light beer this is probably one of the best. I would really have to taste this with other light beers to tell the difference but for what it is this isn't too bad.
It is now at 65 degrees and time to cut this off. It is starting to pick up some unpleasantness.
This beer did have some flavor, maybe even a little more than the others but I really couldn't tell unless they were head to head.
Like I stated before in my last light beer review, these light beers are like training wheels for real beer. Or they are for people that don't really like beer they just want a slight hint of what one would taste like.
So unless I get handed another light beer I think this will be the last. The first ML vs. BL was a hoot, this one was just boring. Sorry it is what it is. A boring review for a boring light beer.

Two words...FUCK YOU.
There are 4 threads in the GF about WA ""Huge drops!" "ZOMG! Go grab titles!" and various other forms of thievery.
Why do you think it's ok to tell your competitors? Firstly, this shows how unprofessional you are. Secondly, it shows how stupid you are. Thirdly, it proves that you will not cut it as a professional freelance writer and have sullied the good name of the profession and to that say I say, go fuck yourselves.
Oh, and I'll have it be known, that while I do grab a few things there on occasion, this rant is mostly for the principle of the damn thing. You who shout from the rooftops deserve your ho-hos and eviction notices.
