Welcome to the New Hampshire Seacoast Greenway: the ECG in NH

The New Hampshire section of the East Coast Greenway is the shortest of all states along the Greenway – only 16 miles! It is known as the New Hampshire Seacoast Greenway. Currently, the entire route is on road, but plans are in the works to create an entirely off-road rail-trail from the Massachusetts border to Portsmouth.
Travelers enter New Hampshire from the north along a road-separated bike/ped walkway over the Memorial Bridge. From there, the route hugs closely to the coast for entire trek through the state, offering continuous views of the Atlantic unparalleled in any other ECG state north of Florida, including of the historic Isles of Shoals. Most of this on-road route has a shoulder, but some sections do not.

Trail Status & Plans
None of the New Hampshire route is off-road today, but several miles of abandoned railway are pending development. The NH spine route will total 17.2 miles, and we anticipate virtually all of it will use the corridor of the Boston and Maine Railroad from Seabrook to Portsmouth. This RR ROW crosses into Massachusetts and is being advanced there as a trail. The southernmost portion of this ROW in NH (4.5 miles) was acquired by the State of New Hampshire Department of Transportation when it was abandoned as a rail corridor, including the section passing through the Seabrook Nuclear Power Plant. The northern section (11.5 miles) is owned by Guilford Industries, which has filed for abandonment and is presently negotiating sale of the land to the State of NH, for conversion to trail. In Portsmouth, the East Coast Greenway leaves the railroad ROW and uses an on-road route to reach Memorial Bridge where it crosses into Maine.
To learn more about the trail progress and activities in New Hampshire, visit the NH Committee page.
The ECG Trip Planner allows you to generate customized point-to-point cue sheets for your ECG trip, with accompanying maps and elevation profiles, or to export your route as a GPX file to load onto your Garmin or other GPS device.

Financial Times reports that Apple wants to sell its iPod media players and iPhone multimedia cellphones with unlimited access to iTunes music library at a higher price-point. Customers who acquire those devices and pay a premium to Apple will be able to download music from iTunes legally throughout the lifetime of the device without any limits. Another option for unlimited media access is subscription model - end-users have to pay for their downloads a fixed sum each month. The question is how much extra Apple and record companies will charge such music lovers.
The news-paper quotes executives familiar with negotiations as saying that they were they hinged on a dispute over the price the computer maker would be willing to pay for access to the labels' libraries. Last year Apple said that in average only about 22 tracks are purchased for each iPod ever sold, which is not a lot. Apple reportedly offered record labels $20 per device for unlimited subscription to music library, which is also not a lot, but which does reflect the average revenue music industry gets from each iPod owner. However, it is reported that one executive said that a research had shown that consumers would pay a premium of up to $100 for unlimited access to music for the lifetime of the device, or a monthly fee of $7-$8 for a subscription model.
Nokia, the world's largest maker of cellphones, is also working with record labels to provide lifetime subscription to music libraries with its mobile phones.
While subscription model is hardly new to the music industry, bundling music access with the device is a rather innovative approach that is not only comfortable for end-users, but is also dangerous for pirates and third-party online music stores, as customers with unlimited legal access to media files hardly need to download music from other sources. Moreover, the approach could redefine not only music, but also movie industry, as loads of customers are looking forward movie downloads these days.
Apple did not comment on the news-story.

not for me
Posted by Reviewer2698023 on Oct 14, 2011
Firstly, I did not like the packaging, metal tube of cream (although I understand that the environment is more useful than the plastic packaging) --edge sharp and can scratch your hands! Second - not very nice pungent smell of geranium! Third - cream uniform - decomposed into fractions - individually separated cream oil that is released when pressure is applied first and then the butter cream. I think that this was not intended by manufacturers and the defect has arisen due to the temperature difference in airfare. (As sent Calendula Diaper Care Cream also disintegrated into factions) So you have to mix the cream on your hand first and then applied to the face. Yes, the skin moisturized after him, but he had long absorbed and there is no feeling of freshness. I have normal skin so that admit to very dry skin it will fit more. I'm not going to take. I wish you all a pleasant shopping! (sorry for my english)

just tried too early to talk about the results
My favorite

I can't wait until iHerb gets this back in stock, I'm almost out of it! This cream has been my favorite for years, after trying at least half a dozen facial creams that didn't work for me. It's very moisturizing and therapeutic for dry to very dry skin, like mine. Leaves the skin replenished without any excess oiliness, smells wonderful of all the fresh and natural ingredients. Highly recommended!
smells wonderful, works great

Many dog owners will be familiar with this scenario: You're out enjoying a nice stroll with your canine companion, when suddenly, she takes off and starts rolling in something on the ground. The next thing you know, you have a happy canine who smells terrible. This behavior can be annoying, but it's common among all types of dogs, big and small. Understanding the motive behind this behavior may make it easier to prevent it from happening in the future.
According to Psychology Today, the jury is still out on exactly why dogs like to roll in smelly stuff, but there is one prevailing theory that makes the most sense. It's important to remember that though we may treat them as though they're equal members of the family, canines are still animals, and much of their behavior, including this malodorous tendency, is dictated by instinct.
Dogs are pack animals, and may choose to roll in things like dead animals or even feces in order to disguise their own scent. It might make you sick to your stomach, but your canine may think that by coating herself in rotting fish, she's more likely to be able to sneak up on prey in the wild. Of course, we know that most domestic dogs today do very little hunting, but canines will still act on their evolutionary instinct.
Dr. Stanley Coren, who penned the article for Psychology Today, presents another interesting theory on the matter. He thinks that some canines may roll in pungent things because they enjoy the stimulation they get from the smell. It's a well-known fact that dogs love to sniff, so literally throwing themselves into strong-smelling stuff may be their way of saying, "I like this experience!"
Whatever the reason, pet owners must make sure that this behavior doesn't end up putting their canine at risk. If you see your dog not just rolling in, but eating feces, then you have a more serious problem on your hands. According to VCA Animal Hospitals, dogs who eat feces may be exhibiting medical issues that will require a visit to one of the nearby vet clinics.
Coprophagia in dogs may be a sign that your dog is not getting enough nutrients in her diet. It can also be indicative of thyroid disease, diabetes, or Cushing's disease in dogs, reports VCA.

Great hypoallergenic fragrance-free laundry detergent.
Posted by Leione on May 31, 2014
I've tried so many different laundry detergents, but this one is amazing. It's hypoallergenic, free of 1,4-dioxane and ethylene oxide, known carcinogenic contaminants found in so many mainstream household products, and doesn't contain benzisothiazolinone, methylisothiazolinone (so common in other laundry detergents), or other toxicants, allergens, irritants, dangerous synthetic additives, preservatives, fragrances, or colorants. It has a neutral, barely noticeable smell, cleans well, easily removes dirt, stains, and odors, leaves no residue, lasts a long time, and doesn't irritate delicate and sensitive skin or cause any allergic reactions. Definitely my favorite.

Norma, thanks for sharing your pictures. I like a crispy slice. They all look great, especially the first and last (Sam's and Manco?), both look like the kinda of bottom crust that I like. Of the 3 which was the crispiest? Can you rank them in order of most favorite? I'm sure they were all good.
Thanks for the pics Norma, now i want to go there. Used to go to Wildwood every summer in the late 50's and 60's. it's been a long time.
Norma,Great job on the reviews. Please tell me you had Curley's fries though? hahahahahahDo you think we can put to rest that Mack's, and Manco and Manco are definitely not the same pizzas now? I have been saying that they are totally different tasting pies. Your frozen slices show it a lot also. I think there is a lot of Nostalgia going on here too. I grew up having Sam's as my favorite. Everyone loved either Sam's or Mack's, that was it!Then later in life I was introduced to M&M which has become my number one by a landslide. Looking at your pics has my mouth watering right now!!!!!! Thanks again for all of this Norma.
Now I have "Watch the tram car, please" playing over and over in my head.

Comprehensive DescriptionRead full entry
Comprehensive Description
Around 400 species of mantispids, placed in around 44 genera, are known (Ohl and Oswald 2004). Diversity is higher at lower latitudes. For example, according to Reynoso-Velasco and Contreras-Ramos (2008), the known mantispid fauna of Mexico includes around two dozen species, whereas the (surely more complete) species list for all of the United States and Canada includes just half this number, nearly all of which are present in Mexico as well (and according to Cannings and Cannings [2006], only four species occur in Canada). Caribbean island diversity is equivalent to that of the entire Nearctic (Canada and the United States), although just a few species are not shared with continental areas. A summary of species richness by zoogeographic region reinforces this pattern, with the numbers of species known from the Nearctic or Palearctic regions being many times fewer than for other regions (Ohl and Oswald 2004), despite the fact that these two regions are presumably the most thoroughly known.
With the exception of the subfamily Mantispinae, little is known of the biology and ecology of mantispids. The Mantispinae, however, are relatively well known. In contrast to the scattered data available for the several other subfamilies, which suggest that a wide range of insects may be used as food by developing individuals of various mantispid species, known larval developmental associations of species in the Mantispinae are all with the egg sacs of spiders and the larvae are predators on spider eggs. Larvae of some mantispine species are obligate egg-sac penetrators. These larvae locate and penetrate spider egg sacs that have already been produced and deposited in the environment. Other mantispine species locate and board spiders, then enter the egg sac during its construction. Larvae of still other species use either or both techniques to get inside spider egg sacs. If larvae enter an egg sac containing nearly hatched spiderlings, they may board these. It is not clear whether larvae are able to search out spiders from a distance. Given that adults produce egg clutches containing from several hundred to several thousand eggs, it is possible that searching is purely random and that encounters with spiders are simply fortuitous. Although larvae would presumably benefit from boarding only female spiders, in all species that have been studied larvae board male and female spiders with equal frequency. However, in at least one species, larvae that find themselves on a male will transfer to the male's mate when he copulates; in at least one other species, larvae on a male spider will transfer to a female who cannibalizes the male. (Redborg 1998 and references therein)
Although it has long been known that mantispine larvae feed on spider eggs, only in the 1980s was it recognized that some (possibly all) spider boarders feed on spider hemolymph ("blood") while aboard adult spiders. Spider-boarding mantispids overwinter on their host spiders. The overwintering behavior of egg-sac penetrators is more varied. In some species, individuals overwinter as a mass of unfed first instars and search for egg sacs the following spring. Others may overwinter as larvae or pupae within spider egg sacs. (Redborg 1998 and references therein)
Once inside a spider egg sac, a mantispid larva pierces and drains eggs with its modified mandibles and maxillae. As a third instar larva, it constructs a pupal cocoon within the spider egg sac. In the laboratory at 25º C, the entire life cycle for the well studied Mantispa uhleri takes around 28 days from first instar to adult. The incipient adult bites its way out of both the cocoon and egg sac and walks some distance away before undergoing the final molt, presumably because egg sacs may be located in concealed or awkward places such as under tree bark or within a silken retreat. (Redborg 1998 and references therein)
Although data on which spider species are preferentially attacked are very incomplete (reviewed by Redborg 1998), some tentative generalizations are possible. Host range tends to be fairly broad, with few mantispine species believed to have a host range limited even to a single family. Egg sac-penetrating mantispids probably tend to have broader host ranges and to be more often associated with web-building spiders than are spider-boarding mantispids. Spider-boarding mantispids may be more likely to be associated with wandering spiders, while mantispids associated with the egg sacs of web-building spiders may be more likely to be egg-sac penetrators. At best, however, these are rough generalizations. (Redborg 1998 and references therein)
Little is known about the nonreproductive habits of adult mantispines. Several species appear to be wasp mimics. In the few mantispine species in which mating behavior has been observed, courtship begins with male and female facing each other. Both male and female slowly extend forward and flex the coxa and femur of one raptorial leg followed by identical movements of the other leg. Males possess a glandular abdominal epithelium that produces a suspected pheromone, although this requires further investigation. Copulation occurs venter to venter, which necessitates twisting of the male's abdomen through a 180º angle to achieve the final orientation of male and female facing away from each other. Copulation duration ranges from 1 hour to 24 hours among species that have been studied. Postcopulatory sparring may occur. A white opalescent sperm-containing spermatophore, present at the tip of the female abdomen following mating, is generally absorbed within 24 to 48 hours. Mantispids lay discrete clutches of very large numbers of eggs, each of which is attached to the substratum by a short stalk produced by secretions from the female's colleterial ("glue") gland. Depending on the species and the size of an individual female, clutch size may vary from a couple of hundred to several thousand eggs, with one to two clutches produced per week for several weeks or even months. (Redborg 1998 and references therein)
Ohl and Oswald (2004) catalogued the world mantispid fauna, including all fossil and extant species known. They present data on original and current generic placements and synonymies and include literature sources, type status, type locality, type depository, and taxon distributions.

Topic: Base64 upload
I am working on a project where a mobile phone sends a base64 encoded picture to the rails application and it needs to be saved.
I tried various example over the internet but none worked.
With some the file managed to be saved, but it was corrupted (it wasn't the picture).
I tried with Tempfile, with StringIO.new, File.open (with "rb") and f.write and none saved the real image.
Also I tried different encoded images, different extensions, added image type where it was required, but nothing seems to work.
I am using paperclip for uploading throw forms.
Can someone give me a reference or something ?
Thank you.

Kate Winslet Born
Kate Winslet was born on October 5, 1975 in the English of Reading. She admits that while she "didn't have a privileged upbringing," she grew up with two prior generations of actors. Her grandparents on her mother's side ran the Reading Repertory Theatre, and those on her dad's side worked in vaudeville. Both her parents pursued acting careers, although neither was able to sustain them professionally. From a young age, Kate Winslet dove into acting, fighting for parts in school plays, even getting into the competitive Redroofs Theatre School in Maidenhead. But there, her working class roots and weight –– her schoolmates cruelly nicknamed her "blubber" –– distinguished her from her more entitled peers. In addition to a fierce sense of ambition, Winselt took from her childhood a keen sense of the unfair demands that society, even Hollywood, puts on women. By 12 she got her first TV commercial (turning into a honey bear monster in a Sugar Puffs cereal). By 13 she got bits in TV shows, appearing in several mini-series. Then at 17, while making a ham sandwich at the deli where she worked part time, she got the call that Peter Jackson had cast her in HEAVENLY CREATURES. Her role as a day-dreaming murderous teen won her a London Film Critics Circle Award for British Actress of the Year, and changed her life. The next year she was cast by Ang Lee to play Marianne Dashwood in SENSE AND SENSIBILITY, a role for which she received her first Oscar nomination for Best Actress in a Supporting Role. Two years later in the blockbuster TITANTIC, she got her first nomination for Best Actress in a Leading Role. She would continue to get nominated––four times for Leading and twice for Supporting Actress (including for Best Actress in ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND in 2004). She finally won Best Actress in 2008 for THE READER. Her singular focus and dramatic versatility led New York Magazine critic David Edelstein in 2009 to hail her as "the best English-speaking film actress of her generation."

Ahhh. Are they good tattoos?
Ahhh. Are they good tattoos?

Mr. Cartoon is the best.
My friend just won a Worst Tattoo contest, her prize.. Tattoo removal.. the process sounds nasty.
Her tattoo is on her butt cheek.. she got it when we were 16 in a crackheads trailer on the rez. It said Bushman's ***** with crooked stars around it. Bushman was her ex boyfriend.
|Sponsored Links
So far I got two tats, one is the anarchy sign, and the other is Fratelli(Brothers in Italian, me and my bro both got it)
For my next one, I had an idea of having VI and IV on my upper forearm or wrist(Roman Numerals is 64, my fav number, and my moms birth year, and VI is my initials) then I had the idea of having it inside a shield, but then I scrapped that idea. Then I was looking at getting a zelda tattoo, like the Hyrulian Shield with the Master Sword infront of it, or the Master Sword infront of the Triforce
Seattle Seahawks- New Orleans Pelicans- Atlanta Braves- Anaheim Ducks
The Hyrulian Shield or tri force would be sick. My next tat is going to be a Hiiipower one with "the sky is falling, the wind is falling, stand for something or die in the morning." I also want to get the symbols for all the Lantern Corps on my other leg
Something like this
And that does sound dope man
Seattle Seahawks- New Orleans Pelicans- Atlanta Braves- Anaheim Ducks
I want that
Me too, i have seen stuff similar to that but never that.. until today, i would make some additions to it

Topic: Parsing data: Part 2
So, here I am again. I'm a bit more prepared than I was last time, but I'm now getting into the realm of math and stuff.
The task this time is similar to the last one, except I want to take the raw cron job output and parse it down to find out how many times said cron job would execute in a year.
Based on what I learned last time... I started with this.
def rdcron(line)
(minutes, hours) = (line.scan(/^\S+ \S+/))[0] # Need to complete regex... not sure what to add though.
if hours =~ /(.*)\/(\d+)/
num=$1; dem=$2;
num=1 if num == "\*"
hours = Rational(num,dem).to_f
file = File.new("file.log", "r")
while (line = file.gets)
parts = line.split(' ')
puts "#{rdcron(parts[0])} #{rdcron(parts[1])} #{rdcron(parts[2])}"
It's not done, there's parts missing, and I have no idea how to progress or even how much of that is right.
A friend of mine gave me a much cleaner beginning:
def parse_cron(line)
cron = line.scan(/([-0-9*,\/]+)\s([-0-9*,\/]+)\s([-0-9*,\/]+)\s([-0-9*,\/]+)\s([-0-9*,\/]+)\s(.*)/)[0]
{ :min => cron[0], :hour => cron[1], :day => cron[2], :month => cron[3], :week => cron[4], :command => cron[5] }
crons = `crontab -l`.split("\n")
# Parses the cron
crons.each do |cron|
p parse_cron(cron)
But, I want to fix up the problems in my script and figure out how to make THAT do what I want, and then go from there.
I know what I want to do, but I'm not sure how to do it. Any help would be appreciated.
Would num_string or DateTime be viable to accomplish this?

Economic Importance for Humans: Positive

Chimpanzees, being among our closest living relatives, are of tremendous importance in medical research. They are also heavily used in studies of behavior, both in captivity and in the wild. They are the focus of valuable ecotourism enterprises and are popular in zoos. Finally, there is some illegal pet trade in chimpanzees and they are hunted for bushmeat. (Goodall, 1986; Jones et al., 1996; Nowak, 1999)

Positive Impacts: pet trade; food; ecotourism; research and education

NBC Learn: Science behind the news

What it is:
NBC Learn has some fantastic free resources for teachers and students. One of these freebies is called Science Behind the News. In partnership with the National Science Foundation, NBC explores the science, technology and engineering found in current events. Here, you will find a collection of videos that introduce students to the science found in the world around them and current events. Students can learn about everything from quantum computing, to predictive policing, to crowdsourcing and weather phenomenon. Each video is around 5 minutes long and are well produced.
How to integrate NBC Learn into the classroom: I am a HUGE fan of embedded learning. Learning that is in context just makes sense. The learning is richer because students are able to make real connections to the foundational understandings that they already have. In addition, this type of learning gives them an idea of how the learning that happens in the classroom is connected to life. With Science Behind the News, students are able to see connections to the world right now. These clips encourage students to be curious about the world around them, and to dig into the bigger "why" of how things work. I like the thinking that is encouraged here. It is really modelling curiosity beyond just passively listening to a news story.
These clips are a wonderful way to kick off a new science unit, as a resource during inquiry, or for students and classes just to explore. Students can use these clips as a starting point for further research, a "spark" for more learning. Each student could choose a different video to watch and then conduct some research to learn more. Where else is the science used? How has our thinking about a topic changed over time as we have learned more about it? What math is involved? Help your students to see that subjects don't happen in isolation in real life. Science is connected with social studies, math, literacy, history, sports, art, economics, discovery, etc. Can they find the overlaps in learning?
Tips: NBC Learn has other outstanding resources including: science in golf, science in hockey, science in football, chemistry now, fishing the dream, sinking the titanic, science of the winter Olympics, science of the summer Olympics, writers speak to kids and science in innovation. Check them all out!
I've been nominated for a Bammy Award for Educational Blogger. I'd appreciate your vote to help spread the word about iLearn Technology. Vote here. Thank you for your continued support!!

Too Good!
Posted by MikeMember on May 26, 2011
These are one of the best nut snacks I've ever tasted. If you like cashews & coconut and enjoy a sweet treat from time to time, these are highly recommended. The only drawback is that they don't last very long because they are too good!!!

Love the crunch and texture of the toasted coconut on these. I let my friend try and she loved it so much I got her a bag. So good, I could eat one bag by myself.
Absolutely YUM.

This combines my two favorites together: coconut and cashews. I swear this stuff is amazing, except it is a tad bit sweet. Love it though!
Posted by eatpraylove on Apr 23, 2015
I really liked the taste of these! They tasted fresh, and I like that they come in a ziplock bag. I had them with me on a road trip and they lasted for about a week. The ingredient list is very natural, the only thing I would change is less sugar/sweetener (although they're nice as a sweet treat and contain no refined sugars, which is a plus). I'll probably repurchase sometime soon.
tastes good

What is Spring? Did you mean Sprint?
Best Buy, a leading retail chain in the U.S., has teamed up with AT&T, Sprint and Verizon cell phone networks operators in a bid to offer ultra low-cost netbooks to its customers. At present Best Buy stores offer operator-subsidized Compaq Mini 110c-1040DX mobile computers for $0.99 or $199, depending on the contract the customer is willing to sign.
Compaq Mini 110c-1040DX is based on single-core Intel Atom N270 (1.60GHz, 512KB L2) processor as well as Intel 945-series core-logic set with Intel Graphics and Media Accelerator 950. The system comes with 10.1" display with 1024x576 resolution and is equipped with 1GB DDR2 memory, 16GB solid-state drive, integrated HP un2400 WWAN controller, 802.11b/g Wi-Fi, card-reader, 3-cell lithium-ion battery and so on. The system comes with Windows XP Home operating system.
In order to obtain the netbook, customers have sign a contract for AT&T or Verizon services for 2 years and pay $199, or sign up for 2 years with Spring and pay just $0.99. The netbook is also available without a contract for $389.99.
In Europe operator-subsidized netbooks are not something new. However, so far there have been no offerings to get a netbook for $1 either in Europe or in the U.S. Obviously, the final price of the mobile computer and the total payments for services will be considerably higher than $389.99, but for some customers this may still be a rather interesting deal.
Considering the fact that competition on the market of netbooks is heating up, going forward other retail chains, operators and manufacturers are likely to offer similar bargains and "netbooks for $1" will become a more widespread reality.

Information specifically for A. ocellaris mating habits is not available, but general behavior believed to be typical of all anemonefishes is documented. They are territorial to the specific anemone they inhabit and are monogamous (Thresher 1984). Prior to spawning, nest preparation is done by the male, where substrate is cleared to make a nest on bare rock, but near enough to the anemone to still have protection from the overhanging tentacles (Thresher 1984). Males will attract the female by extending fins, biting, and chasing (Fautin and Allen 1992). During spawning, the males are increasingly aggressive. (Fautin and Allen, 1992; Thresher, 1984)
Mating System: Monogamous
Amphiprion ocellaris is part of a the subfamily Amphiprioninae, or anemonefishes. This group is characterized by being protandrous hermaphrodites, meaning that all individuals develop first into males and then possibly into females later (Myers 1999). An adult male and female and several juveniles may reside together in an anemone. If the female were to be removed or die, the largest male would then become the female, with the larger of the immature fish transforming into a male. Females control males with aggressive dominance, thus controlling the creation of other females (Fricke and Fricke 1977). The largest male will in turn dominate the juveniles and prevents other males from spawning (Fricke and Fricke 1977).
Amphiprion ocellaris is able to breed nearly year round because it inhabits tropical waters (Thresher 1984) but may be somewhat limited in the northern reaches of its distribution during winter months. Spawning is concentrated around the full moon and usually occurs in the morning. Possible reasons for this include: stronger water currents for larval distribution, greater food supplies due to invertebrate spawning at the same time, and overall increased visibility (Thresher 1984).
When spawning is about to occur, the male will chase the female to the nest, but the female actually begins the process. The female makes several passes over the nest and eventually lays orange eggs over the period of 1-2 hours before leaving the nest (Thresher 1984). Eggs are approximately 3-4 mm in length and range in number from 100-1000 depending on the age of the fish (Fautin and Allen 1992). The male then continues the process as he passes over the eggs, fertilizing them. Eggs are attached to the substrate with a fine thread. Incubation is affected by water temperature, the cooler the water, the longer incubation period, but in general it requires 6-8 days before hatching occurs (Thresher 1984). The planktonic larval stage lasts from 8-12 days and ends when the juvenile fish settle returns to the bottom and attempt to find an anemone to inhabit. (Fautin and Allen, 1992; Fricke and Fricke, 1977; Myers, 1999; Thresher, 1984)
Key Reproductive Features: Iteroparous; Year-round breeding; Gonochoric/gonochoristic/dioecious (sexes separate); Sequential hermaphrodite; Sequential hermaphrodite :: Protandrous; Sexual; Fertilization; Fertilization :: External; Oviparous
Spawing occurs year-round in the tropics, but only in warmer months in warm-temperate areas. Spawning occurs near the full moon.
Prior to spawning, males prepare a nest where the eggs will be deposited. Males account for the majority of the egg care, but females are involved sporadically. Main duties include fanning the eggs and eating eggs that are infertile or damaged by fungus (Thresher 1984). Once the eggs hatch into the larval stage, they are independent of the parents. (Thresher, 1984)
Parental Investment: Pre-fertilization; Pre-fertilization :: Protecting; Pre-fertilization :: Protecting :: Male; Pre-hatching/birth; Pre-hatching/birth :: Protecting; Pre-hatching/birth :: Protecting :: Male

Topic: FoodSpying.com - new Ruby on Rails site
Hey Guys,
I've been working on http://www.foodspying.com for a few months now and although it's far from complete I'd like to start to get some more members using the site to provide me with suggestions, etc. I'd greatly appreciate if any of you can have a look!
On a side note, some technical details:
- runs on an entry-level Linode virtual machine
- currently using mod_rails, but may eventually move away from Apache to reduce memory usage
- uses restful_authentication, will_paginate, searchgasm, and attachment_fu
All that said, thanks to all of you answering questions on here. I don't post often but frequently search the site to find answers to similar questions.

Very good product
Posted by Reviewer1940589 on Oct 29, 2010
Works great for me, lasts even two days without adding more. Tips for new orders: you have to moisten the top of stone and rub it in your armpit MORE than twice that the "saltshield" evolves.
Fantastic Product!
Posted by vinetu28 on Aug 31, 2012
Ever since Gillette stopped making its deodorant gel, I've been looking for something to replace it. (Yes, they still have anti-perspirant gels, but they used to have a straight deodorant gel too.) This Crystal Body Deodorant really does the trick. I'm a stinky guy and I need deodorant. Not that other deodorants don't work, but of the half dozen or so I've tried the past few years, I like this one the best. It is as good as or better than anything else I've used, plus it's natural and a lot milder than anything else. I don't like anti-perspirants because they don't work for me, I still sweat. So whether the chemicals in anti-perspirants are harmless or cancer causing is a moot point, they just don't work so why take the chance. Plus, I feel a stickiness when I do end up sweating. This deodorant is just a block of some sort of mineral salt. You have to wet it to apply, or just don't dry your pits after you shower and it is moist enough to apply. Very mild, I haven't had any sort of reaction to it. You can even use it on other body parts like your feet. This thing lasts forever. I've had mine for half a year and can't even tell that it's been used at all. I even feel like I put it on "thick". I rub it around my pit a lot more than the one or two swipes I would with a regular deodorant. Remember, this is not an anti-perspirant. You will still sweat. The one drawback I've noticed is, sometimes if I'm wearing a tight undershirt and have a sweaty day, my shirt will start to pick up an odor even though my pits themselves won't stink at all. The spray version works as well, it just doesn't last nearly as long. Crystal Spray Body Deodorant, 4-Ounce Spray Bottles in 3-Count Packages. And other than the packaging, I don't think this "Men's" version is any different than the regular stick, they are both fragrance-free. I'm sure that results of this product vary from person to person. If you sweat excessively and generally smell...
Best Crystal Deoderant
Posted by TheGeneral on Aug 13, 2012
My entire family, including my children, use this product. We have tried others, but prefer this brand. They last a long time, but you need to be careful when handling them because they do come out of the holder. If they hit the counter or the floor, they crack or chip and leave sharp and rough edges on it. We find them very effective in preventing body odor. They are not an antiperspirant. They also last quite a long time and have no fragrance to them. Very healthy alternative to traditional deodorants. Don't need to use a lot either. A great and effective product. iHerb is my favorite place to buy most of my supplements because of their price, integrity, shipping, and customer service and product knowledge.
From Phoenix, AZ
Posted by Reviewer1891571 on May 21, 2009
Those who have been to Phoenix, AZ know how HOT it gets here in the summer time, but this deodorant surprisingly does its job well. It doesn't prevent you from sweating since it's a natural process, but it does help you with odor. And it doesn't leave those nasty stains on your clothes! It is a little less convenient compared to other deodorants because you have to moisten it, but I don't really care as long as it works and is natural. I will definitely buy it again.
Natural and fresh
Posted by Reviewer1068518 on Mar 29, 2009
Doesn't stop from sweating, but this deodorant prevents you from smelling which is good enough for me! Much rather be a little sweaty than use something toxic on my skin.
Does its job very well indeed

THIS Is What True Trend Obsession Looks Like
This Secluded spot on a farm in southern Sweden was once occupied by an old mill. For the homeowner, Johan Dieden, it was the ideal setting to construct a small house to accommodate visiting friends and family. He commissioned the Scandinavian architects Gert and Karin Wingårdh to create an uncomplicated space, using natural materials, that would bring the outdoors in.
Other than those vague instructions, the architects, who are known for their organic designs, were handed a blank canvas on which to unleash their imaginations. "He gave us a free hand in this project," Gert says of the homeowner. "He has a lot of trust in people and a very open mind."
Woven-willow arches lead to the glass-wall structure, set above a reflecting pool.
The result is a modern wood cabin built in the style of a Japanese teahouse and hidden away in a grove of trees, where the silence is broken only by birds chirping and the gurgling of water.
In the living area of a Swedish guesthouse designed by Gert and Karin Wingårdh, the sofa is custom made, the light fixture is by Philippe Starck, and the flooring is limestone.

Posted on 12/14/2012 3:30:36 PM PST by sheikdetailfeather
The federal government will likely be involved in running the ObamaCare exchange in at least 30 states, 26 of which expressly declined to establish state exchanges. One health-policy expert refers to it as an "administrative nightmare" for the Department of Health and Human Services.
Friday was the deadline for a state to let HHS know if it planned to establish a state exchange. Thus far only 18 states and the District of Columbia are planning on doing so.
As of right now only Utah and Florida remain undecided. Utah may still decide to set up a state exchange, but few expect that Florida will. When asked, a spokesman for Florida Gov. Rick Scott directed IBD to a letter Scott sent last month to HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius requesting more information on the exchanges and a meeting with Sebelius. Sebelius has not responded to his letter.
Assuming Florida decides not to set up a state exchange, nearly 200 million people, or 64% of the U.S. population, will reside in a state with either a federal exchange or a partnership exchange. Although many of the people in those states such as those on Medicare or who have employer-based coverage will not be getting insurance through an exchange, millions of others will be.
Enrolling them will likely prove a daunting challenge for the federal government.

I believe 27 states constitutes a majority.
Throw the damn thing out!
If only we could
Obama thinks that there are 30 more. Let them pay.
Add VA to the total who declined today.
Add VA to the total who declined today.
I believe 27 states constitutes a majority..
not quite there are 30 more
Sounds like a MANDATE to me.
They gave us a nightmare, we can do nothing less than reciprocate.
This is what Obama (Sebelius) is doing. Ignoring the courteous and polite requests for information as to what they EXPECT from the states. Ignored; what are they after? Just control plain and simple, I suppose. They've bitten off more than they can chew.
26 states = 52%
Obambi, Reid, and Pelosi over-extended their socialist fix. I'm starting to believe that it will fail from its own weight. And no, I don't believe that Congress will allow "single payer", at least not in the near future. This has been doomed to fail from the beginning.
One lawsuit that is yet to come, is the 14th Amendment that expressly guarantees "...equal protection of the laws". With all the waivers that Obambi is giving regarding Obamacare, how can that be "equal protection"? I don't get why there are no lawsuits regarding that Amendment. Am I wrong?
Ive read this as well from:
That might explain why the IRS is literally rewriting the statute. On May 24, the IRS finalized a regulation that says the laws $800 billion insurance-industry bailout will not be conditional on states creating Exchanges. With the stroke of pen, the IRS (1) stripped states of the power Congress gave them to shield employers from that $2,000 per-worker tax, (2) imposed that illegal tax on employers whom Congress exempted, and (3) issued up to $800 billion of tax credits and direct subsidies to private health insurance companieswithout any congressional authorization whatsoever.
Rule by bureaucracy.
"26 states = 52%"
What matters is the distribution of people, not states. Governors representing nearly 2/3 of Americans essentially have rejected Obamacare: "Assuming Florida decides not to set up a state exchange, nearly 200 million people, or 64% of the U.S. population, will reside in a state with either a federal exchange or a partnership exchange."
These governors are smart enough not to want to be left holding the bag when Obamacare fails spectacularly. Obama and the Dems have set into motion a plan that will break the U.S. health system as we know him. Let them own it. It's a hard way to learn a lesson, but perhaps American voters will vote more intelligently the next chance they get.
"I believe 27 states constitutes a majority.
Throw the damn thing out!"
Yes, but remember that Obama believes there are 57 states, so he still thinks he has a mandate.
I stand corrected. Arkansas has decided to do the "Partnership Exchange" whatever the hell that means.
Oh yeah—I forgot that he can't count.............
Awesome! I was hoping that would come to pass.
Thanks so much to John Robers. You idiot.
Wow! I had not seen that before! That is huge! Thanks for the information.
Bull. Utah has a state exchange. We don't want your unfunded mandates.
How can 27 states represent a majority?
There are 57 states.
Obama ordered 57 Christmas trees for the White Hut.
John Kerry married the heiress to 57 varities.
26? That's almost half!
Obamacare: Florida GOP Gov. Rick Scott Won't Implement Health Care Reform
Please, please, please let him burn as much capital as possible on this. The less he has left for the rest if his agenda the better.
Good, so with Utah and Florida, that's 29 of 50.
We need 34 to start up that constitutional amendment. 37 to pass it! That's just 5! more states!
I have been waiting all day to see what Scott would do and I emailed and called him too. I am elated he has rejected the state exchange. YABADABADOO!!!
Has Utah rejected the state exchange yet?
Woops! Post 25 shows Utah has its own state exchange. Not sure how the federal govt. will like it but that is what the link at the article says.
If only the above had been the case regarding the election.
Utah had its own state exchange, and wants no part of the federally mandated/controlled, small business destructive exchange. see post #25 for the link.
I have an idea. Take care of myself and don't steal from me for others who don't.
14th Amendment grounds are the next method to try if the current attacks fail as the first course did - see the Roberts 'It's A Tax' decision for the first failure. It's being challenged on other grounds now (First, I believe) so we'll see if that flies.
Thanks! I looked at the article. I am glad to see the states pushing back on this.
Self reliance is its own reward, and we are taught all the other things on the way to learning to become adults. Well, no, we were once taught... not too long ago...
BTW, Welcome to Free Republic.
A hearty hell yes in agreement with you, and you're welcome.
Who want central controlled economy? Raise hand please.
No? Okay. Who want free food and medical and transports? Raise hand.
Ahhhh... comrades.
Sorry to say that Mississippi has opted to set it up - I though we had smarter folks up in Jackson. Of course, there are too many lefties in the State government.
-—— (Sebelius) -——
It is likely she turned down the meeting because she would be embarrassed by an interrogation. She after all, has not read the law.
This will be a hiring bonanza for the Dems in Washington. More mediocre civil servants to administer this bureaucratic morass, hired from the ranks of the 47%. They'll put in a solid 3 hours work each day for 8 hours pay and the projected administration costs for Obamacare will triple. America cannot afford Obamacare as described by the Obama administration. it will be bankrupted by Obamacare as it is actually implemented.
Anybody have the list of states? (I grew up in and in many ways love California, but sometimes wonder if it's a good idea to move back there...)
As much as I hate the Roberts ruling that the penalty is a tax (bullshit), it was unanimous that the Fedgov has over-stepped its authority regarding the Commerce and Necessary clauses. That's huge! Or do I have this wrong?
The Good:
1. I live in south Orange County and the city I live in is always at the top of the list as far as little crime, so do many other communities in other southern and central counties;
2. The weather is amazing. The coast is always moderate. Inland can get a little hot, but with little humidity and no bugs;
3. You can snow ski, surf, hang glide, hike, hunt (limited) and many other outdoors activities you desire. It's all here;
4. The people are friendly and courteous;
5. People take care of their properties which keeps the values up;
6. Property values have been one of the least to devalue since the 2008 recession;
7. There are jobs here, even with everyone saying companies are leaving by the droves. There are millions who remain;
8. Many attractions/entertainment venues;
9. There are many gun owners, and other than Los Angeles, most believe in the Constitution.
The Bad:
1. Property is expensive here;
2. Rentals are higher than many regions;
3. Cost of living is higher than many regions;
4. Traffic can be a problem since we're so spread out;
5. Attractions/entertainment is spread out, so it takes a drive to get to some.
6. Cali gun laws are some of the most restrictive. Any magazine over 10 rounds is now illegal. Basic AR-15 type rifles have to have a special button to release the magazine, although there is a work around that has yet to be illegal;
The Ugly:
1. We have earthquakes, but nothing so bad as the hurricanes and tornadoes that other regions experience. However, there is always the "big one" coming, as it's called.
2. The State is governed by liberals;
3. The State keeps increasing taxes and fees;
4. The education system is now at the bottom of accomplishment for its students, where it was once at the top.
5. The State Legislature recently gained a super-majority and has a Governor called, "Moonbeam". Think what that can mean for its future;
6. The State is bankrupt, yet the the bureaucrats want to build a high-speed rail system from nowhere to nowhere. Again, think what that means.
7. Cali has signed on to the Obambicare State Exchange program.
Sure I'm missing some points. Just a quick list. Feel free to Freepmail me about specifics.
I pretty much hate being over-regulated. The more the government regulates what I consider to be none of their business, the more I don't want to do it. For instance, in VA, I never put my seat belts on & in the four years I've been here, I've never been stopped. In CA, I got ticketed more than once for no seat belt on. (Seat belts are a fine idea and, but for this Nanny State thing, I'd probably wear them.)
This Obamacare thing rankles me the same way because whether I'm insured is none of the government's business. (I see insurance is basically a statistical losing bet against yourself, so that's doubly bad for me because now they're trying to force me to do something I otherwise might not do.)
I graduate from law school this spring (a "spring chicken" - you're never too old) and I'm a bit puzzled about where to move.
3 more states and it'll be more than half!

Posted on 11/09/2012 3:34:30 PM PST by Red_Devil 232
Good afternoon/evening FReepers. Yep, it is Beer Thirty Time Once Again!
Happiness is a bubbling airlock! And a Cold Brew
Well, the Local Homebrew Store in Shriveport, La had their opening day yesterday. I drove the 35 miles to their location and was not disappointed. They had quite a collection of craft beers. They also have a nice selection of grains, hops and other supplies. I talked to the owner for a little bit, nice people. I bought a vile of White Labs Champagne Yeast (WLP715) and a pack of Nottingham Ale Yeast and a couple of other items I needed for a 5-gallon batch of another Hard Apple Cider. They also had quite a selection of Extract Kits. I will be going back when I need something. I am hoping they are successful in their business. It is nice to be able to drive to a store and not have to order over the internet then wait for delivery.
The link below is to a Sapporo Beer (Japan) commercial that was posted to me today on the Gardening Thread. Excellent Graphics. I drank quite a few of them as a young Marine stationed in Japan. I hope you enjoy it, I enjoyed the beer back when and the commercial today. It is not long but entertaining.
Sapporo Beer
I will start the 5-gallon batch of Cider tomorrow. My Irish Stout is still in the secondary for at least another week.
I hope all of you and your Brews and Wines are doing well. Stop by and share what you are brewing or let us know what your favorite brew, wine or spirit is.
Pine to all the usual suspects!
in before the ping?
Yep! But it looks like I was pining to the list.
(Not quite.)
A fellow FReeper mentioned homemade Beet Wine in a separate thread. I found several online recipes involving boiling a quantity of beets, adding sugar, and fermenting the liquid.
Anyone here heard of this?
I have a rather large quantity of beets right now.
Thanks for the link! I reading it as I drink one of my 2008 (Bush Era)hard apple cider.
My first attempt at brewing, an IPA is bubbling away and smells awesome.
Newcastle, Brown Ale it is!
Go for it! It will turn out great!
We sure could have used this thread Tuesday evening...
I almost bought one to sample from the homebrew store I visisited. Here is to a good brew!
I watched as long as I could sipping on some Sparkling Cranberry Mead but headed to bed at 9 central. Disgusting outcome. the election, not the Mead!
Nanuet NY just opened a new homebrew place ! Growlers and Gills. Will plan on visiting it this weekend. Free tastings !!
You must try a Newcastle Brown Ale. Very smooth, no aftertaste.
By the way, Happy Birthday Marine!
I always liked that Sapporo commercial. Really clever. Don't know if they still make it or not, but back in the 1990s Sapporo made a brew called Sapporo Black that I really liked. Not too hoppy, nice roasted malt character, just a hint of toffee at the end. Good stuff.
Were I to try it again, I would use raisins or possible a wine concentrate.
Just sayin'
There was a campus bar back when I was in college that used to serve Newcastle on tap. I would get a pint (or three) every Thursday when I'd go for lunch. One of my favorite beers of all time.
Have a batch of Belgium Triple brewing but I'm a bit concerned that it's not working yet after 2 days...hmmmm.
I'll give it a day or 2 and see if I need to re add yeast.
Anyways my local home brew store had a 10% off sale on Tuesday if you showed them your I Voted sticker. Cool guys.
And to you! Tomorrow is indeed a special day, 237th! I bet Tuns Tavern and Brewery was awash in beers or ciders that day as they offered up a pint or two to the new recruits - those first Marines.
I don't remember if there was a Sapporo Black when I was there in the early 70's. But I liked it. Along with a few brews and a couple of their small ceramic flasks of sake - Gees that could make a guy wobbly!
IPA drinker thinking about homebrewing... any FReeper recommendations on how to get started?
Thanks all!
Our wine is going nicely. We bottled 59 bottles of white wine and racked 2 carboys of plum wine to tertiary. For some reason there was lots of pulp still left in the plum. We need to add some finnings to it and at least one of the cherry wines has a haze also.
We are going to purchase a ratchet press next year so any suggestions on a press is appreciated.
I was bottling wine tuesday, which means we were also drinking what was on the bottom of the carboy. Fitting really.
IPA drinker heh. :)
Do you have a homebrew shop nearby? If so visit them. Expect to spend at least $100 for your equipment minus a pot and bottles. If you drink beer that uses crown caps you can save them and be green by recycling. :) If you know someone at a restaurant that serves those types of beers then you can get some free ones from them. I have a restaurant that saves me wine bottles. You will need a boiling pot of at least 16 quarts, but for an IPA you will really need to have at least a 20qt or larger pot to get good extraction on your hops.
Lots of technical stuff but your local homebrew shop will be more than willing to help. There are several good books and forums that offer lots of help.
One last thing, start simple. Don't try to do any complicated clones of commercial beers that you really like. Stick with something that is extract about 9 lbs of malt extract 2 oz bittering hops maybe 1 or 2 lbs of specialty grains and 1-2 oz of finishing hops. Go with a quality liquid yeast even if you purchase a kit with dry yeast. If you start simple you will be much happier.
Then you will need ingredients - some starter kits come with an Extract Kit just have look around the internet searching for home brew or homebrewing to get your best price. There are many on line stores most charge shipping and some like the one above have no shipping charges if you buy over a set amount of $.
I started using Midwest Supplies They charge shipping on everything but have good Extract Kits. it is up to you
Thank you for the recommendations... hopefully I can re-create the dear, departed Alchemist's "Holy Cow"!
Aftertaste in a good beer is a feature, not a bug. ("Finish" is the term used.) The brown ale style tends to be fairly lightly hopped, so the finish is more subtle than something like an IPA.
Do the right thing and take your time, get the right equipment for what you want to brew. Ales take from about a month to brew, condition and mellow out to a few months and longer. Have patience and you will be rewarded with some incredible IPAs. Go for it!
"Finish" That's a good term. Thanks.
Finishing up my Hard Cider tonight. I took a sample to my LHBS for criticism and suggestions for finishing. It currently has quite an alcohol bite, it slightly overpowers the apple flavor. Cold crashing cleared up all cloudiness.
Suggestions were to add 1 gal filtered apple juice for sweetness/carbonation then bottle. If after aging it still needs sweetness, I can always add a bit of liquid Stevia.
All told, the 3 person staff at the LHBS were impressed with my first attempt.
That cider may need a little more aging. How long have you aged it? I understand it can take a few months to mellow out and get rid of that Rocket Fuel Alcohol taste and then the apple flavors develop and comes through.
This five gallon batch I am doing tomorrow I intend to let age about six months then bottle for carbonation for two weeks or so.
4 weeks.
It is now bottled and going to a dark shelf 'till Christmas. This has been an interesting experience.
I literally just drank my next recipe.
It's a modified version of Blind Pig.
18 lbs of 2 row pale.
1 lb of Crystal 40
No bittering hops but a full pound added from 20 minutes to 170 degrees.
A full pound.
Flavorful, hop forward without being uber bitter and hops, hops, hops.
Will post after I brew it. My buddy made 10 gallons and the single glass I had was far to little.
On the plus side, he had a glass of the chocolate coffee stout I made a few weeks ago and is stealing my recipe to make his own.
That's what I love about homebrewing.
I tell people that I liken it to cooking a gourmet meal (one of my other hobbies), but unlike cooking where the meal is really at its best 5 or 10 minutes after making it, home brew can be shared for weeks and weeks.
Well, days maybe in my case ;0)
Thanks for the reply. Beet/dirt wine seems like something that could use some help. From what I can tell of the recipe, the only fermentable is white sugar. Could maybe use honey instead and end up with Beet Mead?
I strongly urge you to think about apple juice concentrate rather than juice. It adds more sugar and apple flavor with far less volume.
I mean, who wants to drink wimpy cider?
My bad, there is a huge caveat to using concentrate.
It will add enough sugars that unless you keg carbonate, it will bottle bombs unseen by modern man.
If it gets warm, it WILL ferment. Beware.
I wrote a easy to use, step by step article on homebrewing. You might like it.
I went for the low buck, easy to do method.
I did use concentrate, reconstituted with boiled and cooled water. If fermentation restarts it is not a big deal. I bottled it in 1 gal jugs with a screw on cap. I can crack the seal and bleed off excess pressure if needed.
I tasted a small glass with a Cinnamon stick tonight. The added juice did great things in smoothing it out. I think it is a keeper.
Thank you!
Will read... thank you!
I started with
5 gal apple cider UV pasteurized
2 pounds corn sugar
2 packets Red Star Champagne yeast (dry)
OG was 1.076
Brewed one week in Primary at 70 degrees. Racked to secondary, added 2 cans apple concentrate for flavor and 5 tsp. pectic enzymes for clarity. Let it sit for 4 weeks at 70 degrees.
Cold crashed for 5 days to settle everything out.
Racked off the sediment, and added reconstituted apple juice to sweeten/carbonate. Then bottled.
Metamorphosis complete
Oh My! How does it taste now? That looks so good! Hope the 5 gallon batch I started today turns out as good as that!
Actually tastes pretty good. I had a small glass last night, well chilled with a Cinnamon stick. The last addition of apple juice was key, without it the "rocket fuel" overtones were very strong.
My guess is that by Thanksgiving it will be kinda drinkable. And by Christmas it should be mighty-fine.
I have no one else to tell that would care but I have to tell someone, I finally got the tubing I need for my 2 pump system and I did a test run yesterday using just water.
2.5 GPM and enough hose so that I can go from my boil kettle directly into my carboys in the fermentation chamber without having to lift them!
My back is very much looking forward to this.
Now, what to brew for the maiden run?
Oh Man! Now I am jealous.
Great! Anything that saves the back and in my case a hip!
And the best part, at least to me, is that I have 55 bucks in the whole thing.
Weight set off of the free section of Crraigslist to make the brew stand. Traded labor for the march pump. 50 bucks for the recirc pump and 5 bucks worth of PVC to plumb it. My neighbor gave me the hose I needed for the march pump and a few electrical items from my scrap bucket and I am now done.
I can't wait to get it all fired up with both burners going and the pumps running !!!!!!
I may just have to call in sick to brew this week. Call it a mental health day ;0)

Caputo 00 Flour & Pliny the ElderI did notice when using Caputo 00 Flour that I could have used less than 9 ounces of beer for the 4 cups of flour (which is my normal amount with Power Flour). I had to add more flour in my dough kneading process, as it was too sticky to work with before adding more 00 flour. Perhaps someone has a comment as to why this happened??? I am not familiar with Caputo 00 Flour.
Keep it up Tom! Love this thread. Do you think the difference is the carbonation, the alcohol, or the flavor of the beer? A combination? Something else?

Posted on 06/12/2005 6:54:05 AM PDT by kingattax
MANCHESTER, N.H. - A Keene man who planned to try to board a flight carrying nothing but a Bible and a copy of the Declaration of Independence was arrested Saturday at Manchester Airport.
Russell Kanning, 35, was arrested after refusing to comply with security screening procedures and refusing to leave the screening area, according to the Rockingham County sheriff's department. He was charged with criminal trespassing and was being held at the Rockingham County jail.
Kanning, an accountant and staunch Libertarian, said last week he hoped his actions would highlight what he considers overly burdensome state intrusion.
``They're not going to be happy I'm doing this,'' said Kanning. ``But people shouldn't have to go through all the hassles we have to go through. They just want to control us.''
His demonstration was part of a larger effort by Libertarians to promote their belief in individual freedom and limited government. Others planned to start a private mail service, to call attention to the federal government's monopoly on first-class mail delivery, and sell bottles of liquor, in defiance of state liquor laws.
What's illegal about carrying a copy of the Declaration of Independance and a Bible onto an airplane? Is there more to the story? Did he not have a ticket?
Well, he wouldn't allow anyone to wand him and do any searching. That's why he was taken away. I don't believe it was what he was carrying (read story again)
Others planned to start a private mail service ...They'll issue stamps with moonbats on them.
It appears to this reader that he had no intention of really boarding a plane, as he just wanted to make a statement by not tolerating the airport screening process - somehow the bible and declaration of independence were 'props' for him to hold up or quote from.
I imagine he had a ticket or, at least from my experience, you can get to the screeners without them.
canCAN'T get to the screeners without them
"Others planned to start a private mail service, to call attention to the federal government's monopoly on first-class mail delivery, and sell bottles of liquor, in defiance of state liquor laws."
Ping me when that happens, would ya? I sell books on-line and am always looking for ways to cut corners on shipping costs. If they can beat Media Mail rates, and guarantee delivery within a week throughout all of the USA and HI & AK, hot-digity, I'm in!
I'll also bring the popcorn, and some of my own homemade liquor to share and we'll just sit back and watch the Kook Parade, LOL!
Hats off - the revolution has to start somewhere.
Idiots like this guy give us normal libertarians a bad name. We are not all moonbats.
Yeah, well feel free to come up here anytime and tell that to the rest of these retards.
I hope that he gets an example made of him.
"Hats off - the revolution has to start somewhere."
Start it in your own f*cking state. And if you're from NH move.
He didn't have identification. Think if someone tried to board a plane carrying nothing but a Koran and the Al-Queda charter. Oops, silly me, in that case they'd wave him past.
Libertarians for anarchy!
We dont need no stinking airplane security!
The people running the FSP are idiots...they select a blue state like New Hampshire in an area surrounded by blue states.
Their project is ultimately doomed. On the bright side, it kept these people out of decent states like South Carolina and Idaho.
"Start it in your own f*cking state. And if you're from NH move."
A couple more faults you forgot to mention...your property taxes and vehicle registration fees are outrageous. I'm in NH, and I am out of here at the earliest opportunity.
Live free or die?
This guy is one of the idiot "Free Staters." I don't think the report was very accurate.
If you look at my profile, (such as it is) the 2nd line says;
"Sympathetic to Libertarians but feel they need direction"...
I have the same problem with the LP....
They are more their own enemy than anyone else is..
( Of course, it's always possible he's a Liberal Dem masquerading as a Libertarian to discredit the party..)
He was a Libertarian..
Too many Libertarians suffer from an inability to pick their battles. This man could have made a timely point by protesting many different issues. Airport security in a time of war is not one of them.
Yeah, live free of idiots like this guy.
Hey, enjoy that sales and income tax in any one of 49 or 48 other states that you move to, respectively. The reason all the Massholes are moving here is because our property taxes are still less than theirs on average, plus we don't have the other taxes that I mentioned.
Yeah, the vehicle registration costs suck, but that's the price you pay for being the only state where you aren't required to purchase car insurance or wear a seatbelt. I'll make that up in a week with all the money that I don't have to spend at cash registers via the sales tax.
Plus, I paid more in Georgia for it when I lived there.
If only you were a freestater or a commuter...
Do we know this person?
Really nice. Now show this to your Mommy, good boy, she will be so proud! Or run over to DU, you will find many folks of your ilk. I love that ilk, don't you? Really, try DU.
I think there are more than a few Republicans who agree with me. Remember, Libertarians are the ones who want prostitution and legalized drugs. That doesn't sound too conservative to me.
As for my mommy, I'd think that you were her if you actually gave a sh*t about my language.
I'm not your mother, the poor soul, I only mention that public swearing is declasse and furthermore detracts from your argument. Move it over to DU where is it accepted as the norm.
Incidentally, 'proper ID' also consists of two individuals who will swear that they have personal knowledge of who you are, and that you are indeed who you say you are.
Also, did you know that Public Notary's (Government-approved-document-and-'ID'-generators) are required to perform their duties for individuals without any other form of 'ID' other than their personal knowledge of them? Makes you kind of wonder about that little discrepancy in the Mandatory-ID-Is-Splendid chest thumper's rhetoric -for those of you that can still think for yourselves. Makes Me glad Claire Wolfe is no longer lurking or posting here.
My annual property tax on my home in Tennessee was about $560.
My property tax on a similar home here in NH would be roughly $3800. Although there is a sales tax in TN, there is no income tax. It cost me $24 to register my car for a year in Tennessee; $500 here in NH, where they just raised inspection "fees" to $43...no inspection in TN. Roughly $175 to heat my home over a TN winter, nearly $1200 to heat my dwelling in NH.
With Democrats making serious inroads into NH (the M*ssholes you reference), seat belt laws and higher taxes are coming...hang in there. :-)
Okay, so you must visit them regularly. Hmmm...
Personal attacks are alot more "declasse" than swearing. Especially against somebody's mother. Besides that, she'd probably kick your ass.
For somebody who isn't a Democrat you sure do get offended like one!
Never (taxes). At least not in my lifetime. Remember "the pledge"?
The seat belt laws might be inevitable due to the driving habits of our southern neighbors.
Property taxes and everything in general costs more in the Northeast corridor, but NH doesn't have alot of the costs that other states in our vicinity have.
I lived in the Dirty South for 5 years and you can have it.
I assume by 'southern neighbors', you are referring to M*ssholechusetts and Rhode Island; recently ranked as the #1 and #2 worst drivers in the nation (although I listed them backwards, RI was #1). I spend a lot of time on the road, and whole-heartedly agree...those idiots should have their cars confiscated.
Dirty South? I concur with regards to the amount of trash on the side of any road that wasn't an Interstate.
Bingo with regards to the Massholes and Rude Islanders.
As for the Dirty South it's a civil war expression that has seen a resurrection in recent years due to gangsta rap. I was in the Army so I know about that stuff.
Rude Islanders...LOL! I've used "Massh*les" for years, but have never heard of that one.
Just think - prior to 1967 there was NO Federal law regulating the sale of guns. Makes me wonder how we survived.
Agreed. One of the things I find so amusing about the 'proper ID' mantra-chanters is that they literally have no idea what they are talking about. I always ask them if they are or have ever been married, and if they are aware of the two Witnesses part of the ceremony. Long before 'everyone' had a D.L. (another topic for another day) it was common knowledge about the requirement for the two-witness necessity for 'ID'. We have forgotten so much and allowed so many freedoms to slip through our fingers in the intervening years (not I).
Sorry it took so long to reply.
I agree totally, and I really am puzzled as to their utter lack of a coherent policy when some of their ideals are so attractive. (small gov)
