Preserving that Beautiful Buzz
In agriculture, buzzing can be music to our ears—especially if that buzz means pollinators are busy helping produce our fruits, nuts, vegetables and field crops. Unfortunately, the sound of my favorite pollinator, the honey bee, has grown fainter in recent years due to higher rates of over-winter colony loss. These losses were initially attributed to a condition described as Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD).
Many factors involved with CCD are not yet fully understood. Honey bee research is focused on gathering data from multiple angles to increase the understanding of overall honey bee health. Many USDA agencies and industry partners are conducting research to better understand the complexities of honey bee health and working to develop best practices to improve the honey bee population.

|Pilot Study of Redirected Autologous T-cells Engineered to Contain Anti-CD19 Attached to TCR and 4-1BB Signaling Domains in Patient With Chemotherapy Resistant or Refractory CD19+ Leukemia and Lymphoma
|Brief Summary
|Adoptive immunotherapy has been successful in treatment of cancer due the graft versus tumor effect, but effective treatment is typically associated with graft versus host disease (GVHD). Autologous T cell transfer for cancer immunotherapy is an alternative approach that offers cancer specific immunotherapy without GVHD. To break immunological tolerance to tumors, autologous T cells have been modified with tumor-specific T cell receptors (TCRs)1,2. Studies using this approach have demonstrated the potent expansion, trafficking and antitumor activity of the redirected autologous T cells, but the approach is limited by MHC restriction and therefore is challenging for broad clinical application3,4. An alternative approach is to modify T cells with a chimeric immunoreceptor (CIR) which mimics the signaling of the natural TCR when encountering tumor antigen. This creates a universal tumor specific TCR that can be used across patients with a common tumor antigen5. Despite advances in current treatments, most patients with B cell malignancies remain incurable. Most B cell lymphomas, mantle cell lymphomas, ALLs, CLLs, hairy cell leukemias, and a subset of acute myelogenous leukemias express the CD19 antigen6-8. Expression of CD19 is highly restricted to B cells, and is not detected on other normal tissues, including hematopoietic stem cells, thus making it a safe tumor antigen for the CIR approach9. Previous clinical approaches have utilized the CD3 or Fc receptor signaling chain for T cell activation10. Costimulation via 4-1BB signaling has been shown to improve antitumor activity in vitro, and therefore incorporation of this signaling chain in the CIR may improve function of the T-bodies in vivo11-13. Our hypothesis is that CD19:4-1BB:CD3 modified cells will demonstrate improved engraftment and function over CD19-CD3 modified cells in patients with B cell malignancies.

Financial Aid for Michigan Residents
Michigan Tuition Grant (MTG)/Michigan Competitive Scholarship (MCS)
University of Detroit Mercy is a private university and therefore Michigan residents who attend UDM may be eligible to receive a grant from the State of Michigan called Michigan Tuition Grant (MTG) or Michigan Competitive Scholarship (MCS). Students are only eligible for one of these, not both. To apply for one of these grants, the student and parent(s) must be Michigan residents, the student must complete the FAFSA by March 1st each year and the student must list UDM school code 002323 as the first school choice on the FAFSA.
The Financial Aid office will determine if the student appears to qualify for MTG/MCS. If MTG/MCS appears on your award letter, please keep in mind that this award is an estimate based on the current year projected State of Michigan award funding levels. This award level is contingent on the Legislature continuing the funding for these programs in the State's Budget.
Michigan Tuition Grant (MTG)/Michigan Competitive Scholarship (MCS) applies to undergraduate students only.

Absolutely Awesome. Please Read Instructions And Use Correctly. This Is Not A One Button Dryer.I will say this is more of a professional blow dryer. Why do I mention this? If you have fine, chemically treated blonde hair you should not set this to the top settings, use no nozzles and blow away. Yes, this was me the first time I used it. Each person has different hair. I had to learn how to dry my hair. (I've been used to 2 buttons Medium and high) LOL.
When you hit something more along the professional lines, if you were like me, you need to read instructions...search the internet and know what you are doing. A. with fine, chemically treated or not you should not be putting the air and heat on max.
You can easily look up celebrity blow drying tips. My last blow dryer was never that hot so you couldn't go wrong. This is an awesome dryer but do not subsitute hitting high and hottest to get out of the door if you have hair like mine. I have seen other brands rated really high for the fact they remove the options from you.
Using this correctly it is an awesome dryer at a great price. No one wants to buy a new one every year or throw it under the sink so you never use it. So if you know what you are doing this is a great multitasking, multihair, very very easy on the hand dryer. If you are willing to spend 5 minutes to review an article on how to use a dryer then this is also a great bargain and great dryer.Apr 28, 2013ValentineHAIR TYPEPlatinum Blonde / Color Treated Hair / Fine or Thin Hair

"Sofft brand shoes typically run narrow. Though I have wide feet (I usually order wides), I have a pair of Sofft Fiorentina pumps in 6.5 that are a bit narrow yet still very comfortable. I ordered the Selene Pumps in 6.5 black and I am sad that these run short and very narrow. I suggest ordering at least half a size larger. They do have the cushioned footbed with arch support which is what makes Sofft shoes so comfortable. The heel seems sturdy and the sole provides good traction. The leather is nice. These all make for cute shoes, but as I said they do run small and narrow."

Delaware State's TV-Radio-Film Production program attracts a lot of attention on campus, thanks to the prominence of student-run station WDSU, also known as "The Hive." On the air since 1978, WDSU gives students an extensive hands-on education in broadcasting and audio production. This practical experience enables students to develop the technical, creative, and management skills necessary to establish a career in the radio industry.
The program includes two off-campus internships at professional radio stations, where students can establish professional contacts and acquire some workplace smarts. And in the classroom, they explore mass communications from a theoretical perspective — and learn how radio evolved into (and remains) a medium that can influence public opinions, tastes, and attitudes.
WDSU carries a full range of programming, including news, music, sports, and politics.
Professional Preparation
TV-Radio-Film Production majors develop a wide range of skills that translate directly to the workplace. These include
- broadcast writing
- sound production
- radio station operations
- news gathering and reporting
- media research techniques
- telecom management
- media law and ethics
With the rise of the Internet and online broadcasting, the radio industry is changing. Our program emphasizes the online convergence of mass communications, preparing students for the jobs of the future. Our graduates go on to careers in all aspects of the radio business, including technical production, on-air talent, and front office management.
Delaware State's mass communications instructors teach from experience. All have spent years in the communications industry and are able to convey both the theoretical and practical concepts that students need to build their careers. Our faculty includes radio veterans such as Andy Harris (the general manager of Dover ratings leader WDOV-AM) and longtime on-air host Ava Perrine. The mass communications faculty also includes documentary filmmakers, public relations professionals, online journalists, and veterans of the newspaper and television industries.
Research and Experience
Between their on-campus work at WDSU and their two off-campus internships, Delaware State graduates acquire hundreds of hours of direct experience behind the microphone and at the soundboard. In addition, our students can interact with professionals by getting involved in campus chapters of the Black Broadcasters Alliance, National Association of Black Journalists, and other organizations.
Some undergraduates from the Mass Communications department have participated in the McNair Program, winning research stipends and presenting their findings at national conferences. All Mass Communications students have the opportunity to present original research on campus every spring during Honors Day.

Since Moodle 2.0 is going to be a major release, I suggest a break in the backward compatibility of the English language pack (wich is not backwards compatible anymore anyway).
All strings, not used in Moodle 2.0 should be removed, so the initial translation for a new language pack is less work and less threathening then the + 10k strings there are now.
The other language packs will keep on being backward compatible due to the orphaned function in lang.php
Gliffy Diagrams

Thinking a little bit more on this: there is a problem with the help files: deleting them or moving them around will break backward compatibility.
May be we need to redo the trick from 1.6 over again: create a new folder in CVS: lang2, clean all packs and move them over, have a new download page for 2.x language packs
I would be glad if language packs maintainers for other languages have the possibility to do the same cleanup for 2.0.
My +1 for the idea in Koen's comment.
My +1 for Koen's idea. It should be enough to clean up the English pack. As Koen noticed above, already translated strings will remain in other lang packs marked as // ORPHANED.
It should not be hard to write a script that will search the the whole Moodle source tree looking for get_string() and print_string() call and extracting the list of currently used strings. I can participate on writing such a report.
I'd be interested in this, if only to see how many strings are actually not in use. Wonder if we should think about removing some of the duplicates too ..?
just trying to revive this a bit... I've created the MDL-16769 subtask.
It's about to create one script to seach for unused strings across moodle/contrib given a lang pack.
David, I've initially assigned it to you. In case that isn't ok, please reassign it to me.
I think that such script can give us some interesting numbers to see, definetivelly, what to do for 2.0 (a good chance to break everything, as you know).
Thinking again about this issue whilst going through the grades help files. It seems very confusing having help files for the 1.9 gradebook in the same folder as help files for the pre-1.9 gradebook.
From chatting with Eloy:
stronk7: well, they are two different things afaik:
1) cleanup of unused string/help files
2) branching the rest of languages
1 requires 2 i.e. we cannot perform the cleanup properly without branching, but branching langs has it risks too:
1) translators must LEARN to use and commit them properly (potential nightmare)
2) translation interface must support branches
3) lang download (both from web page and from within moodle must know about branches)
(that's the summary IMO) but, for sure, for any cleanup, we need branching
Helen: or as Koen says: Maybe we need to redo the trick from 1.6 over again: create a new folder in CVS: lang2, clean all packs and move them over, have a new download page for 2.x language packs
stronk7: yes, that's an option... but in the long term (2.3, 2.4...) we'll be in the same situation.
but perhaps "lang2" is a good moment, and we could start with it branched
stronk7: perhaps one discussion in forums could help?
asking translators and so on (they are the "key" to see if branching is going to be fairly managed by them)
they'll need to have one Moodle 1.9 another Moodle 2.0, Moodle 2.1 and perform each translation in the corresponding onw (committing to corresponding branch).
In a productive traffic jam I came up with a 3th option that might address some difficulties.
We could install on a Moodle box all maintained Moodle versions, give translators an admin account on it with the translating capability set. A demo course can be stored (and may be restored every X time) to have something to play with. The box updates daily
A robot can daily move the translated files in the correct CVS branch.
This solves
-no need to do anything with CVS for translators - branching is automatically
-no need to install anything for translators: translating is done on the Moodle servers
-no need to change anything on the translation interface
This is problematic AFAIK for
-moodle.com: yet another set of installations to maintain
-translators who like playing with CVS
-translators who like translating directly on the files.
Maybe those last two groups can have a CVS account to do their thing on the files, but I would keep that as an exeptions
Good idea Koen. Might help collaboration in some instances too.
Jordan can look after the technical side of running these sites and robots etc, but people familiar with translations are going to need to lead the cleanup effort (of course this can be done from any CVS checkout).
We need a clean Moodle 2.0 language pack in English. Then the orphaned function should go out of the translation interface. Each language file that is edited after that, will be clean.
The help files is a manual job.
Is there something else you think off?
+1 for Koen's idea. Advantages are that with such a solution we can cope with translators with technical background AND with CVS-aware ones.
It could enhance too the cooperation/collaboration in translation teams.
I like Koen's idea too
So, if we start translating collaboratively, how can we avoid conflict of translation, ideas and political stuff?
And who can manage translation groups for each language?.
That is what I occasionally deal with behind the screens. I am a little bit worried for editing wars, but not everyone can edit the language pack - there is always human interaction necessary to give extra people the right to edit.
At the moment, all translations that are sent to firstname.lastname@example.com go to the language pack maintainer with CVS access. Otherwise it is send to the one that did the last send, if that is a reasonable time ago (say less then a year ago).
We'll have to come up with new strategies for language packs with occasional translation efforts ...
> That is what I occasionally deal with behind the screens.
Yes, I have experienced some in 6 years
Hello world, some quick notes to this... (copy goes to the forum as well)
Helen has mentioned some issues with the help files for the new gradebook. The current correct way is to introduce new helpfiles (eg. foobar2.html instead of current foobar.html) instead of changing the current ones so the backward compatibility is preserved. But we know this leads to a lot of obsoleted strings and helpfiles...
I would really love to see language packages being branched. I think we will have to help our translators to use CVS branching features. More documentation, step-by-step tutorials etc. is needed but after several sucessful commits this might become an easy daily task. How many translators use CVS at the moment?
Eloy noted that the translation tool itself should support branches. How? The translation is done against the English pack at a given branch. How would we get English files from several branches into a single installation?
Ad collaborative translation: to be honest, I am very sceptical here. IMHO every language pack needs a maintainer (Pythonists use term BDFL) who makes decisions. Code maintaining is about communication, not permission. I am little bit afraid of terminology wars, mentioned by Koen.
Let me be brave and propose using GIT instead of CVS for language packs (what??? is David crazy???). Not only branching and merging is much easier in GIT than in CVS. But it also fits our needs and process much better. Try to imagine:
- every language pack is maintained by a single "official" translator. They keep branches for all stable releases.
- anybody can decide to create their own fork (clone) of the official language pack repository and start making modifications, changes etc.
- the maintainer can decide to pull changes from other repositories, compare them against their own etc.
- language ZIP packs are generated automagically from all repositories available.
- every site administrator may choose which version (clone) they want to use.
> Eloy noted that the translation tool itself should support branches. How? The translation is done against the English pack at a given branch. How would we get English files from several branches into a single installation?
Agree, correct, translation tool only will know about current installed lang files. It's the download part the one that must know about new lang18/lang19/lang20/lang21/lang directories (and the web page in downloads.moodle.org to show all them).
>Ad collaborative translation: to be honest, I am very sceptical here.
Disagree, I think that offering one Translation site for each branch is a good solution and a lot of translators can be using it online instead of local installations. Those wanting to use own servers + direct access to CVS can continue using that. Only difference is they'll need to handle branches themselves.
>Let me be brave and propose using GIT instead of CVS for language packs
- 100% disagree (for langs in particular and for moodle in general). People wanting to have clones can use git or whatever. But we need the centric approach of CVS. And merging between branches isn't really a pain if you know what is being done.
In any case, perhaps we could have one 1...10 list of tasks needed to fulfil this change? I think it's mandatory to have all the steps clearly agreed (mainly because it affects CURRENT 1.9 lang packs) before doing anything. One page in the Docs could be a good place to make this evolve IMO (apart of discussion having place here/in forums).
> offering one Translation site for each branch is a good solution
as I just answered in the forum, the reason of my worries is the number of users that can actually save the strings and help files. If we open such possibility to anybody coming and saying "hey I want to make this language pack better" then editing wars may come (maybe, maybe not - wikipedia works pretty well ). If this centralized hosting is meant just as a service to the current language pack maintainers who want it, I've no problem with it.
> -100% git
ok, np. It was just a brainstorming idea. You are right: if someone wants to actually use git mirrors, they already can do so. Although I still think that switching to git would be good step for Moodle project, there is no need to start with us, poor translators :-p
(This is going a bit off topic, so sorry)
> -100% git
I agree it shouldn't be introduced to translations, but this discussion did make me consider an extension to Koens idea which i'd write down - you could have moodle commit to a local git repository on the translation server (with the author credentials of the moodle user) as a way of tracking changes which happen in the translation between automated commits. If we were feeling really adventurous this could also be used as a way for any moodle user to make translations and then get reviewed for commit.
All the clean-up should be done more or less easily in the new AMOS framework.
David, just reading the "Re-committing all English strings exported from AMOS ... " Commit comment. Particularly the "Where there was no copyright note so far, I added the
default one with Martin Dougiamas as the copyright holder." bit.
Surely Amos knows who first committed each lang file, and which year, and so could generate correct copyright notices?
Thanks for the idea Tim. Unfortunately, for reasonable reasons, AMOS tracks the strings not from the beginning but from the time we switched to UTF8 for Moodle 1.6. Therefore, Martin is the first committer of all English string files and Eloy is the first committer of all UTF8 translations. To make things even more complicated, Eloy committed the migrated translations before Martin moved the English originals. So, in AMOS history, the initial translations are born before their parents...
I am sure we will be able to regenerate the copyright later. Right now, I do not consider it priority. I actually followed the precedence - IIRC we have added Martin as the default copyright holder for all files that did not state their holder explicitly.

The most impactful approach to volunteering abroad – the only approach – is one designed by the community. With CCS, you'll do meaningful work that addresses a specific community need. As you immerse yourself in the community – your new neighborhood – and work alongside local people to make a real impact, you'll find beauty in every connection and commonality discovered, large or small. The CCS international volunteer experience offers you a genuine volunteer experience with countless opportunities to connect with, and learn from, local people in those communities in which you'll work to support.
Once enrolled, you will have the chance to select the volunteer opportunity that's most interesting to you. Volunteers will always receive their first preference. The only exception to this will be when there are national or school holidays, or there are exceptional circumstances.
Volunteering to teach children abroad is a powerful way to effect entire communities. Apply your passion to support local youth and educators. The impact will resonate for generations to come! Whether you're teaching English and the ABC's, leading students in a song, or giving a math lesson, your service will make a difference.
Many of the students you'll encounter come from families who can't afford the tuition commonly required for quality education. Make a difference by offering attention and support to students who have few opportunities for special one-on-one connections. In an over-crowded classroom, you can be a role model for children and provide inspiration to local educators.
Children are every community's hope for a better future. Nurturing future generations begins with a single lesson, a simple smile, or just a bit of extra attention. Work as an international volunteer to strengthen a community's greatest asset -- their children -- when you volunteer with child care centers, daycare centers, community centers, and other organizations that are preparing kids for great things.
Many of the children you'll work with need more positive role models in their lives. You'll provide support to abused, abandoned, or otherwise vulnerable children so that they can grow into healthy, happy adults. Prepare kids for a bright future by playing games, serving meals, and giving much needed one-on-one attention and love. You'll be an invaluable role model for local children by offering support to an under-resourced staff.
Cultural, political, and economic challenges disproportionately impact girls and women. When you improve access to education, healthcare, and resources for a woman, you start a ripple effect that strengthens the entire community. Experience first-hand how empowering girls and women can lead to long-term economic growth, social development, and environmental sustainability.
When a girl stays in school, it creates improved economic opportunities and reduces rates of teen pregnancy and child marriages. When women are provided with economic opportunities, it translates into stronger, healthier families and communities. Your volunteer work to provide education opportunities, assist microfinance and development opportunities, and support victims of violence will create lasting change and empowerment to the amazing women and girls who will transform their families and communities.
Spend your volunteering abroad alongside healthcare professionals who are working to provide quality care to their patients each and every day.
The healthcare organizations operating in each of our partner communities don't just provide medical services. They educate, engage, connect, and rally people around some of the most pervasive issues. Many of the people, you'll encounter during your time volunteering abroad live with limited access to the most basic health resources. You may work with physicians, administrators, support staff, patients, or families to improve morale and quality of life for countless individuals. Whether your volunteer service takes you out into the community, to a local clinic, or to a hospital room bedside, the love and attention that you offer can bring a smile to the faces of patients and their families, and for many, that makes all the difference in the world.
Community development and sustainable change start with an empowered few. As an international volunteer, work with local outreach and health organizations that are working to empower individuals affected by HIV/AIDS. Whether you're providing support to people with HIV/AIDS, their families or local professionals who provide services every day, your work makes all the difference. One of the most important factors in combating the virus is the effort to de-stigmatize those with positive status. When you partner with local community centers and outreach projects, you can spark that change.
Lend your passion to the cause, and support the movement toward more compassionate care, more effective education campaigns, and more people getting tested to know their own status. Act in solidarity with local leaders and add credibility to community-wide awareness efforts, while supporting those who are affected by HIV/AIDS.
In many communities around the world, individuals with disabilities face harsh social stigmas and are left with few resources. As an international volunteer, work alongside our partner organizations to bring joy to the lives of people with disabilities as they strive to live each day to its fullest.
In communities where resources are already scarce, it's not uncommon for individuals with disabilities to go without vital care and services. Whether you're leading a music lesson, sharing a meal, assisting with exercises and physical therapy, or simply holding a hand, your service will enrich the lives of people with disabilities and free staff resources so that individuals get more of the attention and love that they need. Your efforts will strengthen the visibility of these services, and contribute to larger community efforts to break down the stereotypes and stigmas faced by individuals with disabilities.
A community's elders are its deepest roots, a living connection to every generation. Whether you're trading stories with an elderly friend, serving meals, or lightening the burden of an administrator, your service will connect you to your new community in a very special way. By offering an elderly person attention and love, you'll build bridges between cultures and across generations.
The elderly are often the forgotten members of a population. They can be marginalized as a result of urbanization, or left behind by families who no longer have the resources to care for them. In communities where nest-eggs and comfortable senior homes don't exist, the elderly have few resources on which they can rely. Working to support these individuals means that you'll be bringing games, music, and a chance for fun physical activity to an organization's residents. All of these activities will contribute to improved mental, emotional, and physical well-being for community elders.
If you didn't find your calling among our six volunteer work areas, we've got some other volunteering abroad opportunities up our sleeve that will match your unique interests and experience. Whether you're a micro-finance enthusiast, a women's empowerment champion, or have some specialized skill or secret talent, we would love to work with you to find your perfect volunteer assignment. In each of our volunteering abroad destinations, we have relationships 10+ years strong with local organizations. These local partners often have periodic and unique initiatives that may not fit in perfectly with our six work areas, but may be a perfect match for your skills and interests – so let us know what you're looking for! For questions about specific opportunities volunteering abroad, chat now or contact us today and speak to one of our expert Program Advisors.

By JUDY SHORESBullhead CityAriz.
On Dec. 9 I had the misfortune of being involved in an accident at the Gas and Go in Green River. I was hit outside my car by another vehicle, so it was a very traumatic experience. If it had to happen, I feel so blessed to have had it happen in that town.
The care and almost immediate attention by all was through the roof, above and beyond the norm and anything that could be expected. I truly wish I could thank and have a name for each and every one personally.
The fireman who was there first knows who he is and I truly hope others do as well. He was very calming and genuine in his care and concern. The EMTs arrived rapidly and I felt the same warmth and sincerity in their treatment as well.
The one whose name I do remember is Tracey Siaperas. She was with me through it all and has checked on me even since I returned to Bullhead City, Ariz. She is to truly be appreciated in your community for the asset she is.
PA Kim McFarland was extremely empathetic and took great care with me urging me to stay the night as I well should have. The cut that he "superglued" is nearly invisible already...another fantastic asset to that community.
Then there was Deputy Sheriff Jorgenson who urged me to stay but then went to great lengths to secure my car door so I could return home safely. From what I witnessed, there wasn't a one who wasn't willing to do and help more than was within their job description.
In this world of general indifference towards neighbors and fellow man, this was a wonderfully refreshing reminder of how small communities are. I am originally from one. Green River is full of amazing people who know what life truly is all about and how to contribute selflessly.
I very sincerely appreciate everyone I encountered that day...each and everyone made an impact on my heart.

Lady Warriors Dream Big
By: Lance Cpl. Antwaun Jefferson
Quantico Sentry
Quantico, VA | May 9, 2012
MARINE CORPS BASE QUANTICO, Va.(May 9) – This week in soccer, the Quantico Middle/High School Girls Varsity Team, 3-8, had their hands full as they completed against three very tough opponents: Randolph Macon Academy Yellow Jackets, Foxcroft School Eagles and Wakefield Country Day Owls.
On May 3, the Lady Warriors had a match at Quantico against the second seed in their conference, the Yellow Jackets. The Lady Warriors took a one-point lead in the first half of play. But in the end, the Yellow Jackets came back and won, 4-1.
"We have been running our offside trap really well," said Ken Woodie, head coach for the Lady Warriors. "We forced them to take the ball on the outside and we kept them from potential scores many times. But you can't let a good team get too many opportunities before they start getting a couple of scores."
On Friday, the Lady Warriors had their last home game against the Eagles. And the Lady Warriors didn't disappoint their family and friends in attendance as they put the Eagles to rest, winning that match.
"In each game we are getting better and we are gaining more and more game savvy," Woodie said. "I'm real proud of the girls. I thought they battled hard, they were competitive, and they kept that never give up attitude."
Next, the Lady Warriors traveled to Flint Hill for the first round of the Delaney Athletic Conference playoffs against Owls on Tuesday. If the Lady Warriors lost this match it would mean the end of the season for them.
The last time these two teams met back in April, the Owls had no problem dealing with the Lady Warriors beating them, 3-0. But the Warriors hoped to change things this time around. The final score of the game was not ready in time for press deadline.
For information on the outcome of the game against Owls, other Lady Warrior's games or the full schedule for each of the Quantico teams this season, visit the schools' website.

|In response to Re: Bubbles in the toilet?
: About a week ago our toilet started bubbling. We didn't think anything of it since it was working OK. But then, while I was bathing one day, we were running a load of laundry. The toilet started bubbling again, then the water from the washing maching started coming up the drain in the tub and the toilet backed up. My husband does maintenance and used a snake, (100 ft), to clean out the line from the toilet. We ran in to a few obstructions and cleared them out. Everything worked OK for a day or so, then it happened again. Again we brought out the snake and ran it the full length. That didn't work. We called the city and they came out yesterday and cleaned their lines. They said they pulled out a bunch of roots. Again, everything was OK for the rest of the day and this morning. Then I took a bath. While the tub was draining, the toilet started bubbling again and the tub stopped draining. I left it for about 1/2 hour and then came back. The tub had drained and the water level in the toilet bowl had dropped below normal. What are we missing?
we are having the exact same problem only we live in the county. We had our Septic cleaned out and it was better for about a month then it was back again.

Cute but really WIDE
"The shoe is a little more casual than I thought as one of the straps is a nylon type strap, but they are still very cute sandals. They are also incredibly wide -- I have average feet (not narrow) but they are very loose across the top of my foot. I wouldn't recommend these to anyone with narrow feet as they will fall off with every step you take."

Like the Easton Havoc Stem, Easton's Havoc Bolt-On Stem is CNC milled from a solid block of metal and is a thing of beauty. Also, it's a thing of precise function, designed to sync happily with a triple-crown fork and steer World Champion racers to victory. No less importantly, it's designed to let you ride within the tape or out of bounds with more control and more safety.
The latter comes into play because Easton deploys Top Lock technology, which literally locks the face plate to the Havoc Bolt-On Stem so it cannot shift. Other designs that allow the face plate to float away from the stem allow minute vibrations, and at high speeds under heavy load forces (as in, every gravity ride during your average park visit), that puts direct stress on your bar. This system not only directly bolts the stem to your fork, but holds the bar solidly in place no matter what.
The Easton Havoc Bolt-On Stem is made of Easton CNC Aluminum. Depending on which of the three mounting hole options you use, the length is adjustable for 45, 50, and 55mm lengths. It has an oversize 31.8mm clamp diameters and a -5° rise. The bolt-on pattern fits the Fox 40, Manitou Dorado, and Rock Shox Boxxer. Color options include Gloss Black and Orange anodized.
Application: Gravity
- Distributed Stress technology optimizes bar/stem interface, and removes stress risers to prevent failure
- Top Lock Technologies eliminate rocking caused by floating face plates
- Three length settings (45, 50 and 55mm) and 5mm of rise
- Bolt-on pattern fits FOX 40, RockShox BOXXER, and Manitou Darado

The Saucony Virrata 2 is a natural, performance uptempo running shoe designed for a neutral foot motion.
Treat your run to low, light, and fast with the Saucony Virrata 2. This neutral shoe features a 0mm offset and a flexible platform so nothing will get in the way of an efficient stride, while a cushioned midsole provides just enough protection from the ground. A seamless upper provides a close fit and socklike comfort, making this shoe ideal for racing, training, and everything in between.
Model Number:
Weight: 6.7 oz (size 9)
Stack Height: Heel (18mm), Forefoot (18mm)
Widths Available: D=Medium
How It Fits (based on width D)
Comments: Do you want to run faster, or what? This is such a great shoe if you are fore-foot striker (and you probably should be). It is light and gives the right amount of cushioning. At 6'1" and 200 lbs, I am not a small runner, but I can't find anything that works better; and I have run in Altras and Newtons. (Oh, and I'm pushing 50 and those little discomforts that come with age matter to me!) These are inexpensive and so light, so cool, so flexible: really untouched by anything else. And I have to add, normal width in my experience.
From: Clark, Marina, CA, USA. October 31st 2014
Comments: I've been looking for a decently cushioned zero-drop shoe. I thought I'd try these but they were much too narrow. They'd be great for those with a longer, narrower foot shape. For reference, I'm right on the cusp of standard width and wide width.

Eight contestants participated in the pageant including: Elyse Mills, Candice Jensen, Kristine Johansen, Candace Ungerman, Natalie Newland, Shawna Rogers, Shala Pitchforth and Kaymie Powell. The contestants participated in an interview with the judges in the afternoon on Saturday. Emery County Commissioner Drew Sitterud welcomed the audience to the pageant. All the contestants introduced themselves to the audience. LaRae's dance studio students performed a dance. Commissioner Sitterud announced the master of ceremonies for the evening, Eugene Swalberg. Tawni Bigelow, Miss Emery 2004, was also master of ceremonies. She told of her experiences as Miss Emery and her time spent at the Miss Utah pageant.
The contestants participated in talent, swimwear and fitness, casual wear, onstage question and evening wear. Four former Miss Emery's also performed at the pageant, McKette Hinkins, Laura Blackwell, Michelle Leonhardt, and Amanda Huntsman as they were known during their reigns as Miss Emery.
An original song, "The Price of My Freedom," was sung by Chris Petersen. After the competition concluded the tallies were made and Shawna Rogers was named as second attendant, Kristine Johansen as first attendant and Shala Pitchforth as Miss Emery 2005. Pitchforth was a jubilant winner as she smiled and waved at the audience. Miss Emery receives a $1,000 scholarship to the college of her choice and a new computer donated by Willie Frisbee and the Emery Service Club. First and second attendant winners also receive scholarship money.

Skip to comments.Americans renouncing citizenship to become British thanks to tax rise
Posted on 03/02/2013 8:31:25 PM PST by Baynative
London-based American lawyers, who specialise in tax and immigration, report a threefold increase over the last five years in the number of American citizens who are giving up their citizenship - a process known as renunciation.
Across the world 1,781 Americans renounced their citizenship in 2011 compared with just 231 in 2008, when US tax laws changed, although it remains unknown how many are adopting British rather than any other nationality.
Many decide to give up their American citizenship after tiring of the lengthy US tax return process, which requires them to pay tax on their total income regardless of where they live.
Theres no question that the number of people renouncing their US citizenship is increasing, said Diane Gelon, a US tax and immigration lawyer based in London.
(Excerpt) Read more at telegraph.co.uk ...
While the article is mostly about wealthy folks, this is happening at all income brackets. Traveling to look for new places to live in retirement is big business these days.
This is what happens when you devalue American citizenship by giving it to illiterate people who sneak across the border and by overly taxing some wealthy or high income Americans. This makes me very sad.
That's what they get for sending us Piers Morgan.
Off to the BVI...in three years. Can't wait to go back.
No way in HELL would I live in the UK, again. (sorry UK FReepers, nothing against you. I know you are fighting the good fight).
The US is a big country, with a big central government and it is rapidly transitioning into a communist totalitarian state. True, the rest of the world is not that good, but the transition to tyranny in the US poses an imminent existential threat to conservative and libertarians.
Cue up the Jimmy Buffet song.....that's sound like fun.
I have never been to the BVIs. I did go to the Bahamas, P.R. and Isla Vieques. All were mostly working vacations courtesy Uncle Sam.
I would include GITMO in that list, but that hardly counts.
sic...that sounds like fun...
Please return to your regularly scheduled postings.
Hope they're all Obama DummyRATS.
The Left has made America much less valuable to those whom valued America. It has been a long process, but they are winning.
In three years Cuba and the USA could switch places in terms of personal freedom.
>> Being an American doesn't have the emotional bond it once did.
It grows stronger every day for me.
I love my Country, and I will not turn my back on her. We will be victorious through our belief; not our doubt, despair, nor indifference.
I can not imagine anyone moving to the puking kingdom.
I think it is worse then the US.
I left the USSA around 2000, with no plans to return.
There is a large number of Americans moving to Central and South America.
I started out in central Europe but moved to the Philippines in 2008.
Living here is very cheap and very popular with single men from the US and Europe.
There are a number of web sites that are devoted to expating.
These two concentrate on central and south America.
"I love my Country, and I will not turn my back on her. We will be victorious through our belief; not our doubt, despair, nor indifference."
That is very noble of you, but I think you overlook the fact that the majority has turned its back on YOU.
With over half of the population believing that a Marxist society would be just peachy keen, you must find yourself in a real dilemma.
Both the media, and the educational system in America is against you.
Stop and think. Did the founding fathers not face a similar situation in their home countries?
Whatever....Best of luck to you.
I've looked everywhere. If anyone can tell me how I can give up my American citizenship while maintaining US residency, I'd love to know. I just want to give up my citizenship for legal residency. Why? I like the place, sort of, but I can't stand being a citizen of a country where 59 million people voted for that Marxist punk. When the American people come to their senses and elect the likes of Thomas Jefferson, I'll reapply for US citizenship.
Renouncing your US citizenship for tax purposes might make sense. Becoming a Brit instead? Nope. Though not as crazy as becoming French, can't you find a lower tax country?
" If anyone can tell me how I can give up my American citizenship while maintaining US residency, Id love to know."
Other then being foolish, you are opening a can of worms.
You should just leave the country and wait to see if it gets back on course.
In what country do you plan to apply for citizenship and a passport?
You had better think this out.
The top marginal rate in the UK is approximately 60%. Any American who renounces their US citizenship for tax reasons is mathematically challenged.
You are missing the point, becoming a British citizen doesn't make you liable for British taxes. You only pay UK tax if you are actually resident in the UK, whether you are British or foreign. Whereas US citizens pay tax no matter where they are.
I am a UK citizen living overseas and I haven't paid tax to the British in almost eight years. I have a good friend who hasn't lived in the US or earned a penny in the US for the same length of time and he was called to the US embassy where his passport was confiscated and he was told he would not get it back until he paid tax outstanding on income he'd earned overseas but which the US tax authorities wanted.
He'd never received an iota of assistance from the US government but here they were tracking him down to SE Asia to get him to pay tax.
Many American people have a rather naive view about how "free" they are in comparison to other nations. I wouldn't like to be a US citizen, it confers no benefits that many other nations don't equally confer but without a lot of the hassle.
It's not about luck. I don't have a choice in the matter.
Hey Alex, I knew you would find your way here, just like me. Today, I met some semi influential people from Davao City, who would be willing to help us in any way they can. It always helps to know people.
Not even close. If I was wealthy I'd "renounce" US citizenship and sign up with some other nation in a heartbeat, a nation that doesn't paint a target on your back.
It seems a long time ago now that I served proudly in the Marines under Commander-in-Chief Ronald Reagan. I was actually proud to be an American back then. Today we have a sodomized, feminized, politically correct military that continues to slide down a slop hole under an America-hating African communist. It makes me throw up in my mouth a little.
The United States of America is now nothing more than a big land mass populated by cretins, ingrates, and parasites who have absolutely no respect for the military and who vote for big government to confiscate money from their neighbors so that it may be redistributed to them in exchange for their votes. It is not an America worth defending anymore. That America no longer exists.
The parasites outnumber the hosts now, and theres no going back. America is dead.
The Democrats have won.
Even the immigrants, legal and illegal, don't come to America anymore because they want to be "Americans" - - they come here to vote Democrat and steal whatever they can by proxy. It's a shame. America had a great run but nothing lasts forever.
So after supporting it, giving money to it, and voting for it they flee?
Just another day in Obamaland. :(
"Its not about luck. I dont have a choice in the matter."
I concede that expatriating can be a hard choice for many, especially if with family.
I believe you are correct sir. At the risk of being flamed, I think there is no hope for America either. We are finished as a country. I know some people are still confident we can turn this around. My opinion is, this could only happen through a civil war, so I am leaving the country soon. America was a nice experiment, but it has finally failed.
Change you can bereave in?
...No, I am not doing a bad Charlie Chan impersonation..
...Yes, I know who Charlie Chan is even though I am really not that old. :-D
It kind of depends on your income and your trade. True, the overall tax sink in the UK is certainly no better, but tax is applied differently. Depending on your circumstance, it certainly could be very worthwhile economically.
I would imagine that even if the number of Americans renouncing their citizenship to become Brits has gone up, the reverse process is still much higher.
Sir John Templeton
A knight of the realm who spoke with a Tennessee accent.
Both the media, and the educational system in America is against you.
The answer to that is to persuade the majority to feel otherwise, before the facts of life catch up with the US and force them to realise they are wrong. Battles are not won by retreats. In any case, where in the world can you go to avoid greed, envy and sloth (the foundation stones of socialist systems)
But just as the promises of socialism, the "fairness" and the "equality" are all just smoke and mirrors, so too is the strength of socialists. Their constant assertion that progression (their version) MUST and WILL occur is totally non verifiable. They win because of apathy and guilt and selfishness ("I'm not going to do anything because this particular issue is not my problem")
So I would urge you to reconsider, because when all is said and done, despondency is the enemy's greatest weapon.
"The answer to that is to persuade the majority to feel otherwise"
That is the problem in the US.
The majority has been persuaded to let dear leader Obumbo take care of them.
As I have posted many times, the media and education K-Grad school has been taken over by the Communist.
"In any case, where in the world can you go to avoid greed, envy and sloth (the foundation stones of socialist systems"
Greed and envy exist everywhere, but here in the Philippines there is very little government control of ANYTHING, other then immigration.
The native population views life as what God has given them.
They expect and get nothing from the government.
No, it's not about the option of expatriating. It's about commitment.
"No, its not about the option of expatriating. Its about commitment."
Very noble...you have a commitment..A commitment to what, and how do you plan to carry it out?
I'd say that's all true, but the transition and final outcome is a threat to everyone in the world. Russia/China and all the other communist and muslim states will be able to do whatever they want with no fear of US intervention.
These are truly dark times, what bastion of Liberty is there left?
The decline of America will effect every human on Earth.
anyone can tell me how I can give up my American citizenship while maintaining US residency, Id love to know.>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Simple really. Pay all of your Taxes, Apply for renunciation with the State Department, do the renunciation , apply for a court ordered name change, and then apply for a green card.
You will have to NOT pay anymore taxes. Thats the trick.
To "alexw" it's not about luck either - it's about his bragging rights to have abandoned the U.S.
Don't you think it's very weird for someone to come to FR, almost every day, and brag about how he's left the U.S. while at the same time holding on to his U.S. citizenship?
Many of us "old timers" are still emotionally and patriotically bonded to being Americans. We are waiting for America to return to us. I fear that as the next two generations pass on, the memory will fade and the People will truly become the Sheeple and have no sense of the Freedoms and substance they have lost.
Like ethylene glycol (antifreeze).
I recently got an email from an associate who asked, "Are you SOMEBODY?"HE went on to make several points about things that are slipping away from us and how people often say, "somebody should do something". The moral of his writing is that we have largely become a population of people waiting for someone else to act on our behalf. It's ironic since so many of us speak negatively about those who do little and expect someone else to take care of them.
While the internet has given us a great tool for communication and mobilization, the truth is most folks just use it to forward messages or jokes in the passive assumption that someone down the line may come up with the energy or an idea with which to fight back. Oddly, the majority is letting the minority succeed in taking our country away. We are letting lawlessness prevail and we are giving up our freedom.
I have a friend a few years older than me who frankly says, "I'm not going to be around long enough to worry about it. Let them wallow in the slop they're creating."
Which, of course, is irrelevant for US citizens living in the UK, which is what this article discusses because the UK is a higher-tax country than the US. US citizens are eligible to claim a foreign tax credit against their domestic tax liabilities, which avoids the issue of double taxation.
Worldwide taxation prevents US citizens from mooching off the benefits of US citizenship while evading taxation as tax exiles. However, I'm reasonably sure that no US resident of the UK is there as a tax exile.
You're welcome.
"HE went on to make several points"
So is he doing anything?
Including DEFENSE. The Philippines spends almost nothing on its own defense, preferring to ask the US taxpayer to defend its borders from regional threats. Yeah, great model there. Some things are worth spending money on, but why bother when there's someone in the neighborhood willing to bail you out?

Inhibited children become anxious adults
Koraly Pérez-Edgar's work over the years has demonstrated that extreme shyness observed in children is often a predictor of anxiety later in life. She says that the way shy children behave will evolve as they grow up, "but they can remain uncomfortable in their own skin in new social situations." Pérez-Edgar runs the University's Cognition, Affect, and Temperament Lab.
