I've been using a Q.B. boat paddle and mini-boat paddle for years with good success. I recently won a Beard Hunter Red Cedar paddle over a Butternut long box made by Russell Beard and it rocks. I have years worth of practice on the Q.B. calls, though I'm learning how to make the Beard Hunter sound great.
I called in a lot of birds on my old Lynch when I first got started in the early 1980s. I slipped crossing a creek and fell on & broke that Lynch.

Painful menstrual periods affect fertility?
Does dysmenorrhea or painful menstrual periods affect fertility?
I've been having painful periods since my first menstruation. And now that I am in the age of wanting to have kids, I always get worried everytime these dysmenorrhea episodes happen because I kept thinking maybe there may be something wrong with my system and possible will eventually lead to fertility problems.

Painful periods are a sign of hormonal imbalance. Simply put, you should not have them. However, many, many women do, and many women conceive without problem.
I would encourage you to start your preconception care now, while you're actually thinking of having children. If you do this you may find that your periods become less painful, your cycles become very regular and you experience good signs of fertility, all of which will set you up for the best pregnancy possible.
If you'd like more ideas on how to get some relief from your painful periods just let me know.
Warm regards,

Yes, Kate, I'd like to know more about preconception care. This is very nice of you to share your thoughts on this one. Thanks!

Hi Rhea,
Please be sure you read the preconception care article as that will give you a good start.
Other things you can do to help balance your hormones is to squeeze 1/2 of a lemon into a glass of pure water and drink that each morning when you get up. Drinking plenty of pure water throughout the day is also going to greatly benefit you.
Sometimes taking 1 Tblsp. of organic olive oil each day will help. You can take this 30 minutes before dinner for best results.
Getting enough essential fatty acids is also important.
Hope this helps.
Warm regards,

Kate pretty much said it all =).. Painful periods do not cause infertility but they can sometimes be a symptom of something that does. Make sense? So if you are having a combination of trouble conceiving and painful periods then you should definitely visit your OB or a fertility specialist to rule out any underlying conditions.

Angela had some good insight about visiting your health care practitioner. Painful periods may be "nothing" but again, it could mean Endometriosis or other things that do affect fertility.

Thread: Finally Getting a Dog!
Good luck! I'm excited for you!
Just be agreeable with the owner and listen to what she says.
Once the dog is settled at your place you can change his diet and go ahead with whatever improvements you feel he needs in his routine.
I feed my Mini-D a cup a day of high quality dry food (also for her teeth, which are prone to tartar buildup) and count in the treats she gets into her total caloric intake to keep her weight under control...it's hard with the little dogs...55 g Goldfish Tank - 3 Fancies, 2 Comets

Huh. I never had a problem keeping my parents Chihuahua at a healthy weight even on a free feed diet and lots of treats. Guess ill keep that in mind then in case this dog needs special calorie counting like yours.10gal Betta Tank - Skye the crowntail and Squiggles the deformed albino cory

Tonight i go to meet Mr Pattinson for the first time. She told me to bring anybody else i wanted to meet him, so my grandma just pointed out to me last night that i should probably bring my cat to meet him. That way i can make sure they get along so i dont end up bringing home a disaster when cat doesnt like dog or vice versa.
I figure if cat acts shy around dog that is fine, that will change. If either shows aggression i will have to study severity and decide if it will get better or worse. If dog is too excitable towards cat it might not work either, because the cat is really old and doesnt want a dog constantly trying to play with him.
My managers at work are so nice to me sometimes. The one that is my age and my friend is the manager in charge today, and he said he will let me out at least 15mins early today. Because now that i have to go get cat, the half hour of time i would have if i got off at 530 would not be enough time to come home, get cat ready, pack him up in car, and get back to meeting place by work by 6. It takes me 10mins to get to work when its not rush hour, and usuallly 15-20mins to get home. So if its rush hour it could take 20mins to get home, and it could take another 15 mins to get back, so that gives me 10 mins to get cat ready, which i can do. But i cant do all that in 30 minutes. Just not possible. Its amazing what 15 extra minutes can do! :)10gal Betta Tank - Skye the crowntail and Squiggles the deformed albino cory

Good luck! Just be aware that if you introduce the cat on the dog's territory you might have aggression problems you wouldn't see in a neutral area, or even in the cat's home (in your home the cat may rebel by urinating in unacceptable places for example).
Chihauhaus are less prone to obesity than some other breeds, such as the Mini-D's, pugs, beagels, etc.. Some dogs are just easier to manage weight on than others. So there are generalizations you can make with the breed...and then of course there are individual variations as well. I'm sure there are fat chihauhaus out in the world too...55 g Goldfish Tank - 3 Fancies, 2 Comets
25 g Tropical Tank - Celestial Pearl Danio/Mixed
Well apparently this dog is fat. And hes not the purebred i thought he was. Hes about the size of a westie, all white with non-shedding hair, but he was recently groomed and his hair is super short, and i saw he has black spots on his skin, and he has floppy ears. What breed of dog has black spots on skin but not on fur?
Shes going to give me some of his sweaters from last winter. She doesnt think they fit him anymore since hes gained a good amount of weight, but i think that if im walking him daily and letting him play outside he should get fit again. We have lots of bunnies and squirrels in our backyard that should give him playmates also so he shouldnt have to be bored.
As you can probably assume by my enthusiastic speaking of him and what im gonna do with him, my cat and him passed the test. I took the cat over in his crate, and when the cat was in crate the dog was bouncing around and yipping and wanting him to come out. Once i dumped him out (he didnt want to go) Sandy was scared to death and wanted back in, but i shut the cage door. The dog didnt want to hurt him, just sniff and play. When the cage was removed from the room and the cat had nowhere to go he warmed up to the dog, which was no longer excited and jumpy. He calmed down and explored her living room with the dog following him calmly. When the cat was put back in crate as i was getting ready ro leave the dog got sad. I put the cat on the porch in his crate so i had my hands to get paperwork from the woman, and the dog was so confused as to where the cat went. It was funny.
I think they are going to get along great! At one time the cat went back in the cage and the dog followed him in, and i was ready for the cat to smack the dog in the face for coming in his cage, but they were fine. For the first few weeks the dog will be in a nice roomy cage during the times we arent home, so there wont be any problems while we arent home if hes in the cage and the cat is free. I hope that doesnt make the dog be loud when we arent there...
EDIT: The cat is ancient and cant control his bladder sometimes anyway, so him marking wouldnt be too much of a problem, because he doesnt always make it to the litter box already now anyway.10gal Betta Tank - Skye the crowntail and Squiggles the deformed albino cory

I'm glad you're so excited to get him! He'll have a great home!
Put him on a diet...lots of exercise too. You should be able to easily feel the ribs under just a slight layer of fat. Until she hurt her leg, my Mini-D went on 5 km dog walks along with big dogs - so don't underestimate how much running around they can do.
Personally (and this is just my opinion) I'm not a fan of long-haired dogs. I think they look nice enough...but I am not into grooming - hence all our short- haired critters. So when people get a long-haired dog...and then shave it because it's too much grooming otherwise...I'm always a little flummoxed.
If you like grooming...go ahead and grow out the coat. I think a long-haired dog looks it's best with the long-hair...
BTW...if I liked grooming...I'd have an Old English Sheepdog AND an Afghan...55 g Goldfish Tank - 3 Fancies, 2 Comets

Ive decided to change his name to Padfoot, since i can change that pretty smoothly. She calls him Patty, so i can spell that Paddy and have it be short for Padfoot because im a Harry Potter buff and that would be cool to have a dog named Padfoot. My dad also came and brought me a cage today. Its 18x24" and 21" tall. Smaller than i thought. But hes only going to be in it for 5 hours 5 days a week for 2 or 3 weeks, so thats not too bad. Just until he learns my schedule so he doesnt have any accidents in the house waiting for me to come home from work.
My dad told me of a kennel he goes to that has grooming much more personal and better than the places near me, and i took my cat there for boarding once and they are a great place. So now i know what to do with him when i go on vacation this summer. He says its only like $7 a night, and check-out time is like 4pm, which gives plenty of time i think if you dont want charged for an additional night.
Here's finally a picture of a dog thats not him but its almost exactly what he looks like. He was too active to get a pic yesterday, so i googled Maltese mix and found this:
Hes just a little fatter and dirtier than this dog, and his hair at the moment is a bit shorter, but this dog is pretty close. Paddy also has straight hair, not curly. But close enough, you get the general picture now. :)10gal Betta Tank - Skye the crowntail and Squiggles the deformed albino cory

Thanks for posting the fake-Paddy picture...looking forward to seeing the real deal!!!
I hear ya about the names. We have a horse who came with the name Blaze. I don't want a horse called Blaze..but he knows his name and I didn't really want to change it...he was 13 when we got him.
So I compromised with 'Blaise'. You can pronounce that as either Blaze or Blase...we say Blase. Potato, potahto...
But I feel better 'cuz I prefer the spelling of Blaise...55 g Goldfish Tank - 3 Fancies, 2 Comets

So cute! I'm a fan of the smaller dogs and I have two myself - Silky terrier and Havanese. Just know that the hair on these dogs often tangles a lot, and even more so when you put sweaters and coats on them. They are tougher to groom than fur dogs, which is why they are often kept in a shorter cut. But even so, mine have quite the wardrobe for the winter months.
My experience also was that my dogs loved cat food, even more than their own. But it's not really nutritionally correct for them. So when I had my cats, I had a gate that separated them from the dogs while they were eating. I don't free feed.
Enjoy your new friend!
Sandy likes Mr Paddington's food. We arent sure how to prevent the cat from eating the dog's food. But good news is they are both being friendly and acting like theyve known eachother forever! Cat isnt hiding. Here's a picture of the real Paddy sitting on his blankey on the ottoman.

Get a 20 gauge shotgun
If you're set on a .38, take a look at the Ruger LCR. It's lighter than the Bodyguard, has a better grip, an has one of the best DAO triggers out there.

I can't tell what that is

Since this would be for the GF's use as well, then I'd say a .38 is a pretty good choice.
Since he's wanting it for home defense (not concealed carry), I'd think a heavier pistol would be better for less perceived recoil.
Also, take a look at the S&W Air Weight. A true point and shoot gun. You can find a 642 with rubber grips and a laser for under $500.

We are not created to be immortal. Our creations, however, can be.
The year is 1819. Beethoven is asked to write a variation on a waltz by publisher Anton Diabelli. Beethoven has no interest in the offer. His health is in decline. His finances are in shambles. He's laboring to complete his Ninth Symphony and he finds the waltz mediocre and simple. Yet in spite of it all he becomes obsessed with this 'cobbler's patch' and spends the next 5 years writing not one but thirty-three variations, creating "the greatest set of variations ever written."*
The year is now 2007. Dr. Katherine Brandt, musicologist, has been diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Her relationship with her daughter is estranged. Her symptoms have begun to appear and her terminal path is fixed. Yet she becomes obsessed -- Katherine yearns to uncover why Ludwig van Beethoven, the foremost composer of all time, becomes obsessed with writing variations on a mundane waltz. And why would he write so many? What did he see in this trifle that would elevate its composition to stardom in memoriam?

Twenty years later, the found boy, Rob Ryan, is a detective on the Dublin Murder Squad and keeps his past a secret. But when a 12-year-old girl is found murdered in the same woods, he and Detective Cassie Maddox (his partner and closest friend) find themselves investigating a case chillingly similar to the previous unsolved mystery. Now, with only snippets of long-buried memories to guide him, Ryan has the chance to uncover both the mystery of the case before him and that of his own shadowy past.

"Very mixed feelings (semi-spoilers included)"
First, the narration was very good. I would listen to him again.
Second, the first half of the book was also very good even with the overwritten parts. I wanted to know very much what happened in both crimes. I also liked the main characters, and I loved the relationship between the main characters.
Third, the second half of the book really changed my pleasure in listening to the book. The anger and animosity coming from our main character, Rob, was so incongruous with how he had been I was thrown. A very large part of the book that I had been enjoying was the friendship between Cassie and Rob, and once that was taken away, I did not enjoy the book as much.
Fourth, so much of the book was unnecessary and irrelevant that I found myself drifting for long moments (especially during the second half of the book).
Fifth, the conclusion was ridiculous and unresolved and frustrating.
It was almost like two people wrote this book.
From Austen to zombies!
"Detection with a Difference"
In the Woods is a police procedural on the surface. A girl is murdered, and the protagonist and his partner try to find the killer. Underneath, however, it's the story of that protagonist, Detective Rob Ryan, and his attempts to know and overcome his own buried memories.
On the procedural front, there's everything a reader would expect from a modern detective novel: squad-room characters, a grumpy supervisor, the working relationship of Rob Ryan and his partner, Cassie Maddox. There is also suspense, some red herrings, some authentic leads, and an investigation that gives readers a look into the political and personal worlds of the suburb where the murder takes place.
By itself, this would have been satisfying enough, but In the Woods goes a step further. Rob Ryan, like many other modern detectives, has an ongoing problem. Inspector Morse had alcohol, Barbara Havers has her weight and shyness, but Rob Ryan's in a worse spot: he knows he escaped a horrible situation that presumably killed two of his childhood friends.
But unlike other detectives' problems, this one doesn't just get in Rob's way as he tries to solve the crime: his psychological state is the major part of the story. Parts of In the Woods are therefore quite depressing. Sometimes you want to strangle the guy--why did he DO that? What the heck is wrong with him? And then you remember: after what happened to him, he can't be all there.
In the Woods doesn't offer easy answers to this major story arc. For that, I applaud the author, because trauma that deep can't be solved with a sudden, triggered breakthrough. There's a start toward normality for Rob, but it's only a start.
I wouldn't mind seeing Rob again, but I don't expect him to be more normal next time. If anything, he might be in worse shape. The narrator did a fine job, with the exception of some female voices being a bit forced. Highly recommended if you're looking for a fresh, different detective novel.
Also China Miéville, Peter Hamilton, good space-opera, No Zombies, Apocalypses, Women who sigh and go weak at the knees when seeing a man!
"Cannot Recommend Highly Enough"
Never have I given, to my friends or in the few reviews I have done here, a 5 star review. I cannot say enough about this book, and I really can't say much without it being a spoiler. I was amazed at the quality of the writing; tight, suspensful, well-rounded characters that you really cared about as well as vivid detailed descriptions of the countryside. I suspect that the "first novel" appellation may turn out to be false, and that this is written under a psuedonom (the writer is Tana French). Whatever, the book is a sitting in the car in the driveway, taking the Mp3 player into the house and listening during dinner book. I was unable to put it down. The author foreswears cliches and even the most jaded mystery reader will enjoy the twists and turns as our Detective protagonist trys to explore the depths of his boyhood memory to solve this modern day case. A fantastic book. If this author is really a newcomer, I await breathlessly the next book from Tana French.
"A near-flawless audiobook (but for one thing...)"
One of the best-written and best read combinations around. I put off reading Tana French for a long time because I've been suckered too often, but when I was barely 1/4 way through Part One (of 3), I sat down and ordered the next two books she has written. The writing is THAT good. The story is elegant and moving and convincing, and the characters are more-real than most of the people in your own life. Steven Crossley has an amazing, rich and varied voice, an almost-beautiful thing to hear.
Here comes the flaw. This is a book which takes place in Ireland, in small town Ireland, amongst working class Irish people. ALL of them are Irish, but NONE of their accents are. The first-person narrator explains away his English accent by conveniently spending his teen years in English boarding school, but what of everyone else? It might be a sin for an English actor to attempt an Irish accent and do it badly, and I do love Crossley's voice, but surely there are Irish narrators looking for work? I've enjoyed many other Irish novels read by Irish readers -- in fact it is one reason I choose an audiobook over the print version sometimes. So, the English reader loses a star for this otherwise brilliant book.
"Good writing but a lot of dead air"
Tana French wrote a good novel, but Steven Crossley, normally a proficient narrator, narrates this audiobook way...too...slow. While the audiobook is about 20 hours long, Crossley could have easily cut down the time by at least two hours by merely reading in a consistent conversational pace. There are inexplicably many, many long pauses, leaving the listener with a lot of dead air, and painfully slow-paced reading as if the narrator thinks he is reading to an audience who doesn't understand English very well. Nevertheless, Steven Crossley is blessed with a great vocal quality, and Tana French knows how to write a good story. If Crossley had had a speed-up button I could have pushed, this might have been a great audiobook.
After listening to 75+ Audible books over the past 2 years, I can honestly say "In the Woods" ranks right up there among my top favorites. (It is also the only book I have bothered to write a review for.) The reader is fantastic and the story is gripping. Some Audible reviewers have complained about an unsatisfying ending. I totally disagree. I thought the ending was tight and all major conflicts were resolved at the end of the story. You won't be able to stop listening to this one. I can't recommend it enough!
"entertained by not satisfied"
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I couldn't turn my Ipod off, I did extra housework to keep listening to it. In the end, though, don't look for straightforward answers. If you want a detective story that's nicely tied up in the end, this one may not satisfy. Some big loose ends are left dangling, let's hope the author has future plans to tie them up. If you want entertainment and an intriguing listen that will keep you guessing and make you think, though, this is definitely worth the listen.
"Moments of brilliance, but needs editing"
The writing style impresses at first, but that glow must have captured (and blinded) the author, as well. While a believable story line, the police characters were obscenely inaccurate and farcical.
When the author chides the reader near the interminable ending about being fooled, I thought that considering the story was so thinly disguised and the guilty so obvious, she must have believed that the integrity of the story is less important than her ability to turn a phrase. When it is so obvious who dunnit, you'd better be one hell of a writer. Or hope that your audience is made up of soap opera fans. The entire final chapter, all hour of it, would better have been left in the round file.
The narrator did a fine job while keeping his tongue in his cheek!
"Not worth listening for 20 hours"
This book starts with a great idea but it never really develops. There are two mysteries, one in the past, one in the present. The reader is led to believe that they are connected, but after lots and lots of dialogue, memories, etc we find that the first cannot ever be explained (due to "amnesia" on the part of the narrator) and the second could have been solved right away if the right technology had been applied sooner rather than later. The middle third of the book can be dispensed with- it doesn't have anything to do with either plot. Disappointing.
"Will it ever end"
A great thriller, well read and acted, but the book should have been abridged. I could/would have skimmed through parts if I were reading the book, but this isn't easy to do when you are listening.
My husband and I listened to this on a road trip, and the first half was great. My husband gave up after 16 hours.
I give it 4 stars because the story and reader were good, but would recommend it only to those that like lots of description and words, not those who like suspense and get eager to know how it will end!

Having recently decided to build a freshly minted Windows 8 PC, I began to cast my eyes around for some security software. Nowadays, leaving ones PC without a firewall, anti-intrusion/anti-virus software is simply asking for trouble.
A few years back a computer industry publication left an unsecured PC connected to the net and timed how long it took for the PC to get infected with cyber-nasties.
Shockingly it took mere minutes before the PC was compromised. In a nutshell, If you're going online or networking your PC to others, installing good internet security software isn't optional.
Searching around there are a bewildering array of excellent internet security options, some cheap, some not so cheap and some were even free.
At $129.99 Norton 360 Multi-Device definitely isn't cheap, but it does have hell of a lot of features baked in and a very nifty trick up the digital equivalent of its sleeve.
So what's this party trick? Cleverly a single Norton 360 Multi-Device license key can be used to monitor and install protection on up to 5 devices spanning Macs, PCs, IOS and Android digital dodads.
PC/Mac Protection
Symantec have also carefully evolved Norton 360, after taking it on the nose after an earlier version with a resource hungry anti-virus and firewall engine impacted PC performance. Worse still was a double whammy in the form of intrusive reporting. This annoying combo saw protests from users become many and vocal.
Thankfully Symantec have taken several boatloads of learnings from this and Norton 360 multi Device is sufficiently lean that it appears to run on the smell of an oily USB plug whilst managing security with minimal user hassles. This was borne out by the fact that Windows 8 was snappy and responsive even though I had a fairly chunky security suite installed.
Like most good PC security packages, Norton 360 Multi Device also has industrial grade spam and phishing protection. Norton 360 Multi-Device uses both social networking smarts along with a bunch of other more traditional methods to detect cyber nasties, making it smart enough to recognise threats as they emerge. In a nutshell, there isn't much that 360 Multi-Device for PCs missed on the security front.
Not only does it block threats, but it'll also keep an eye on incoming email, blocking any dodgy attachments. The two-way firewall protects against in-bound intrusion attempts and other attacks as well as attempts by malware to dial-out and spread infection mayhem.
Add in 25Gb of online backup storage, parental controls, PC clean up capabilities and you're literally cooking with gas. Usefully Norton 360 Multi-Device also has the ability to filter websites, preventing accidental visits to sites hosting malware (which considering my ability to mistype something as simple as a URL is a very useful feature indeed).
Mobile Security
If, like many, you spend a growing amount of time on your smartphone or tablet, good security for the various IOS/Android hardware scattered about your home also makes a whole lot of sense.
The combination of something as small as a smartphone and my ability to be totally absent-minded is a potentially costly combination - I've managed to lose at least two high-end phones whilst travelling. Because of this, I was pleased to see that with Norton 360 Multi-Device I was able to find, lock, and/or wipe a lost smartphone simply by sending a text message.
As would be expected by a mobile security package, Norton 360 Multi-Device also alerted me if I landed on dodgy websites and could also block unwanted calls and texts. Unfortunately I didn't have any IOS devices to hand so was unable to confirm how usable Norton 360 Multi-Device was on an iPhone or iPad.
One concern I did have on the mobile front was the relative ease with which the mobile app could be uninstalled, effectively rendering it useless as an anti-theft tool (I'd however wager that this is probably unlikely to occur to all but the most cyber savvy phone thieves).
While there's cheaper and even free security options out there, few manage to cram the sheer functionality of Norton360 Multi-Device. Add to this its ability to manage up to 5 devices including Windows, OS/X, Android and IOS devices remotely via a centralised online console, and there's a whole lot to like with Norton 360 Multi-device.

By NEMS Daily Journal
Swimming program required big effort
In the summer of 1956 Bill Ross, sports editor for the Daily Journal, called me. He said there was an interest in starting swim meets in our area. Okolona and Amory had contacted him. He asked me if I would consider organizing and coaching a team for Tupelo. It was a lifeguard at the old round pool on Madison Street. I told him I would see about it. I asked Mrs. Langston, the pool manager, about using the facility to practice if there was enough interest. She said she could not make that decision and I would have to talk to the mayor.
I did and the mayor said he would talk to the aldermen about it. He later called Mrs. Langston and said the city was not interested in competitive sports outside the public schools. I called Bill Ross and told him. He prepared an article for the sports page with the title "City of Tupelo will not allow for a swim team." He called the mayor and read the article to him that was to be in the next day's paper. The mayor contacted Mrs. Langston and said the pool could be used from noon to 1 p.m. for practice.
I organized a swim team, and George McGreger helped me coach the team members. It was hard to practice in a round pool that had poles and a chain at the end of the deep water with a diving tower in the middle of the pool.
We received no support, and I had to use my car and borrow my mother's car which George drove to get the team to Okolona and Amory, and I had to pay all the expenses for the swimming team while making $17 a week as a lifeguard – gas was 19 cents a gallon.
Some of the team members were Henry Dodge (businessman), Murray Akers (lawyer), Roma Taylor (doctor) and Rosemary Rich (Bryan, dietitian at NMMC). Milton Bradley was a diver on the team.
Tupelo later supported swim teams and is now building the Aquatics Center. This is some change from our start to those who have lately supported Tupelo's swim teams. Thanks!
Jacque Prather
NMMC praised for quality care
Recently I completed a week-long stay at the North Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo.
The quality of care and the quality of the individuals that I came in contact with at North Mississippi Medical Center were unbelievable.
I hope you in Tupelo and surrounding communities appreciate what a quality facility and staff you have. I could not have made a speedy recovery without them and they frankly saved my life.
I will be traveling to your fair city hopefully in the upcoming weeks to express my gratitude to all involved.

SYRIA: OCHA warns of funding shortfall
The humanitarian response for Syria is facing a critical shortage of funds, OCHA's Director of Operations, John Ging, said on Monday. Mr. Ging called on the donor community to scale up contributions to enable aid agencies to help those affected by the escalating crisis.
"If we don't get more money, people will die and there will be more humanitarian suffering. The needs will continue to grow as long as this conflict continues – that is a sad and tragic truth," said Mr. Ging.
To date, the $189 million appeal for assistance for the response inside Syria is 20 per cent funded, while the $193 million appeal for the response to assist refugees in Turkey, Lebanon Jordan and Iraq is also 20 per cent funded.
"To enable humanitarian action in an incredibly difficult, dangerous environment, funding is now the number one priority in terms of unlocking a bigger humanitarian response. That's both for inside Syria and also for the regional refugee response," Mr. Ging told reporters in Geneva following the fourth meeting of the Syrian Humanitarian Forum.
The forum brought together over 350 participants from Member States, regional organizations, international non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and UN humanitarian agencies to mobilize the necessary resources to provide assistance to the hundreds of thousands of people uprooted by the conflict in Syria.
"We came together today in the face of an escalating conflict, which is having the predictable devastating humanitarian and human impact," said Mr. Ging, who added that insecurity, political obstruction and capacity issues remained major obstacles to the full implementation of the humanitarian response plan.
He noted that there has been a "significant" scale-up of assistance over the last month, from 500,000 people provided with food assistance last month to an expected 850,000 people this month, but despite the increase, the situation is deteriorating.
"In spite of the scale-up, the gap between the needs and the means is very much still there," he said.
"We have to be prepared, sadly, for a bigger demand on us collectively as this conflict continues. And we must be motivated by the plight of the Syrian people," Mr. Ging said.
Mr. Ging thanked countries hosting Syrian refugees for keeping their borders open, and the seven principal donors who he said had been generous so far, but added that it was vital to broaden the donor base.

Kwan Fly
Question on the Kwan fly - The mono loop at the tail sounds like it doesn't just prevent fouling but somehow gives the snapping action of shrimp.
I have yet to find a decent recipe for this fly and am really putting it together from bits from different sources.
Tied hook point down
Craft fur tail marked with a sharpie to simulate segmentation.
Mono loop tied in at 45 degree angle (assuming up off the top of the shank)
Rabbit, marabou or chenelle collar at tail.
crab type body using yarn, unique fibre, etc...
bead or dumbell eyes with a weed guard in front of them.
Does anyone know just how that mono loop at the tail is suppose to be tied in, it really sound like the key to the whole pattern since it creates the snapping action.
It seems to me that the snapping tail would propel the shrimp backward with the head facing rearward. This pattern with the head forward and line pulling in that direction would go just the opposite.
Jim Simms is the Kwan king :)
I think he tied them both ways but i will defer to his first hand reply.
A little tan felt crab did well for me on Bahia Honda State park which is a good DIY spot. Also an unweighted snapping shrimp on Matecumbe in a honeycomb coral flat with sandy holes that the bones tailed through.
The mono loop at the bend of the hook is used to prevent the tail from fouling around the hook. Interesting thought about it enhancing the snapping action. On size 6 & 8, I don't think it is necessary since the tail is not long enough to foul.
The fly rides hook point up because of the weighted eyes on top of the shank.
Generally, at the bend there is an orange egg sac. this can be a small clump of maribou or glo-bug yarn. The body is made similar to a Merkin, e.g. alternating bands of Aunt Lydia rug yarn.
It is an interesting fly and a must in the Keys. It is said that it is used to depict, toad fish, mantis shrimp and crabs.
When I get a chance, I'll post a photo.
Thanks for straightening me out on the pattern. I'll post a pic once I get around to tying some up.
I plan to hit Bahia Honda looks very cool, my wife likes the hotel down that way better anyway so we'll split it 50/50 down there and Islamarada.
I have a feeling I'm going to catch the fever and will be hitting Aklins with the group in a couple years.

The two-time defending Southland Conference women's basketball champs will get to show off for the home folks for the first time today at Barton Coliseum.
McNeese State (0-1) will host Texas Southern at noon.
"We love playing at home, in front of our fans," said Cowgirls head coach Brooks Donald Williams. "We feel very comfortable at Burton."
McNeese is coming off an 82-71 loss to 16th ranked Vanderbilt in the season opener last week. Texas Southern, also 0-1, is coming off a 15-point loss to SMU. TSU is coached by WNBA legend Cynthia Cooper, who led Houston to that league's first three championships.
Senior twins Ashlyn and Caitlyn Baggett will lead the Cowgirls into the game after both scoring 20 points against Vanderbilt. With her 20 point output, Caitlyn moved into 11th place as the Cowgirls' all-time scoring list. She also led the team with five assists.
Ashlyn connected on three of five three-pointers in the game while several newcomers scored their first collegiate points or grabbed their first rebounds.
Texas Southern had two players score in double figures against SMU. enior Brijan Turner scored a team high 16 points while freshman Te'era Williams chipped in 10 points. Williams also led the team with eight rebounds.
Fans showing their tickets for Saturday night's football game against Lamar will be admitted to the women's game free.
McNeese will remain home to host Houston next Tuesday in a 7 p.m. game. Fans are asked to bring canned goods to be given to Abraham's Tent for Thanksgiving. Those donating canned goods will be given a voucher for free admission to a future game, not Tuesday's game.

Most of em aside from the Cushing's last favorite individual, Slauson, are hiding behind their anonymous quotes. But is anyone surprised - by the lack of personal accountability and/or the consensus sentiment? I've got a shiny bridge to sell cheap to anyone who doesn't believe that Woody Johnson did not foist Baby Jesus on the team in a pathetic grab for back page headlines
More than a dozen Jets players and members of the organization painted a sobering picture of the player who rallied the Broncos to the playoffs last season. In their eyes, hes simply not very good.
The prevailing thought in the organization is that Tebow is nothing more than a gimmick.
Hes terrible, a defensive starter told the Daily News.
Although Tebow told The News last month that he has made improvements as a quarterback over the past few months, none of the people in the organization who spoke to The News shared that sentiment.
Both offensive and defensive players admitted that they hadnt noticed any appreciable improvement in Tebows quarterback skills in practice since he was traded to the Jets in March. Tebow has been a poor practice player throughout his career. His current teammates echoed sentiments from Denver Broncos players a year ago about the lefthanded signal callers poor practice performance.
The 3-6 Jets dwindling playoff chances havent changed this mind-set in the locker room: Tebow isnt a panacea.
Despite Mark Sanchezs league-low 52% completion rate and league-high four red-zone interceptions, the players believe he should remain the starter over Tebow, who has accounted for only 132 total yards and averaged seven offensive snaps per game. Rex Ryan has backed Sanchez without publicly guaranteeing that he will be the starting quarterback for the rest of the season.
Left guard Matt Slauson, who has repeatedly supported Sanchez, made it clear that the fourth-year signal caller is the Jets best quarterback.
Its not even close, Slauson said. All the other quarterbacks know it. I have all the confidence in Mark. We dont really have a choice.

question: dualbutton css
How do you make the dualbutton always appear like the last two sets of screenshots (as it does on hover)?
I'm looking to make dualbuttons always show their dropdown button with a real button like look. This dualbutton reply button is going to land in Thunderbird 3 soon and I'd like the style to look correct for both Linux and Windows (Mac is using it's own button style).
However this doesn't appear to be some kind of toolkit CSS hover issue. The windows CSS is decidedly worse than the Linux right now so that may be a separate issue all together; and if so we can attempt that in the same way we handled the Mac.
Hints, answers, and the like are greatly appreciated in the comments.

I use full size Gunners up wingers and would recommend them over the SOG . I really like the safety features on the Gunners Up wingers and have three that performed well for the last two years
I have both and prefer the SOG due it storage and handling. If you use silver threa band and cut it 2'' shorter than the original it will throw just as high and long as the original.

Danny, Glad this thread helped you some.

It never is a good practice for one person to say a competitors product is inferior if it is not the case, your house never looks better by burning down your neighbors.

A rough translation by Richard Landes of the French text of the final judgment of Philippe Karsenty's court case makes damning reading for France 2 and its correspondent Charles Enderlin.
Despite this and the implications for media reporting on the Israel-Palestinian conflict, almost the entire mainstream media chose not to report on the case despite the fact that wire services Reuters and Associated Press did offer coverage at the time.
Credit to the Wall Street Journal, the only international publication that did comment on the case in an editorial:
International media lapped up the televised report of al-Durra's shooting on France's main state-owned network, France 2. Barely a peep was heard, however, when the Paris Court of Appeal ruled in a suit brought by the network against the founder of a media watchdog group. …
The ruling at the very least opens the way for honest discussion of the al-Durra case, and coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in general. French media could stand some self-examination. The same holds for journalists elsewhere. …
Judge Trbucq said that Mr. Karsenty "observed inexplicable inconsistencies and contradictions in the explanations by Charles Enderlin."
We don't know exactly what happened to Mohammed al-Durra. Perhaps we never will. But the Paris court ruling shows that France 2 wasn't completely open about what it knew about that day. It suggests the Israelis may not have been to blame. It makes it plausible to consider — without being dismissed as an unhinged conspiracy theorist — the possibility that the al-Durra story was a hoax.
To this day, Islamic militants use the al-Durra case to incite violence and hatred against Israel. They are well aware of the power of images. Mr. Karsenty is, too, which is why he and others have tried to hold France 2 accountable for its reporting.
The Jerusalem Post commented:
The recent verdict, besides usefully underscoring the right to criticize the press and its sometimes dangerously hasty product, also calls much-needed attention to the ways in which world opinion is shaped by perceptions that are themselves shaped by a not infallible media. The al-Dura affair, like the myth of a massacre in Jenin in April 2002, has been so fervently seized by those who seek confirmation for their belief in Israeli culpability, that it is likely never to be erased from international consciousness. It by now stands well beyond the reach of refutation.
… the sordid affair teaches a valuable lesson about the dangerous enthusiasms, especially in Muslim societies, and especially among those who claim to speak for an awakened conscience, for modern myths of Jewish evil.
Writing for YNet News, Israel Government Press Office director Danny Seaman takes a wider view of the al-Dura affair within the context of media manipulation:
The al-Dura affair is the most conspicuous and blatant of the phenomenon of media manipulation undertaken by Palestinian workers employed by international media outlets. These employees stage, produce, and edit events and photos in a bid to slander Israel in the world. Media reports and photos such as the al-Dura case affect global public opinion and governments. The stages events undermine Israels ability to conduct itself within the conflict and affect our ability to maneuver and secure targets in times of emergency. …
Often we see reports about some kind of harm done to the Palestinians by Israel that immediately make headlines worldwide. In many cases, the charges turn out to be false, yet the damage to Israel is already done. This stems from the fact that foreign networks do not do the minimum they should be doing – verifying sources and crosschecking information. After all, they always attribute reports to Palestinian reporters and always find "credible" sources that would confirm the charges.
This may be forgiven the first and possibly second time. Yet once these revelations emerge time and again, we could expect foreign media outlets to be stricter and exhibit proper professional conduct before again leveling false charges at the State of Israel.
Therefore, exposing the truth behind the Muhammad al-Dura events is vital for the elimination of the phenomenon of staged media reports and for undermining the natural manner with which this phenomenon is accepted by global media outlets and the leniency they show to it. This tolerance sometimes stem from reasons of political sympathy, but mostly for reasons of financial profitability. Israel must make clear to global media outlets that they bear responsibility for the reports of their employees and must insist on adherence to journalistic ethics and accurate reporting, even when dealing with the State of Israel.
The al-Dura affair is one of a number of media manipulations and distortions covered in our exciting new interactive resource – The Big Lies.
You will be able to navigate through several case studies of untrue accusations that were reported as facts. Each study has an introduction, an explanation of the lie, the lie reported in the media, and the actual facts of the case.

I am not a conspiracy theorist, but i was thinkng that something didn't feel right about these shootings, other than the obvious sadness of the loss of life. The article that i am linking asks some questions that were going through my mind during the coverage, like
What happened to the other suspects?( police tapes talk about one pinned down in the woods, and a kid being interviewed talked about he saw a guy face down in hand cuffs as they were being walked out)
Why havent we heard an eyewitness account?
Why is it that for the last three shootings (sikh temple, aurora, newtown) original accounts have multiple suspects then suddenly they dissapear without a trace and we are left with one crazy white guy?
Again these are just questions i have and have not had a good answer to,
I hope this stuff is just a coincidence

Holiday fishing report
For the number of hours spent fishing, about 6 hours over the whole weekend, it was good fishing - just not enough of it! Also, a number of fiasco's kept any serious excursions out of the question so the venue was always a quickie here or a few casts there. Had hoped to stop by Smitty's, meet up with Josko, hook up with Nate, catch up with Sean, meet Fred and scope the group site at Nickerson. Ended up doing NONE of that!
The good news is, my son and I fished together on each of these off-hour sorties and he hooked a fair number of fish including one w/ afterburners that churned up the water, spit the hook and left him stunned. My brother-in-law landed his first striper on a fly rod ever Sunday morning, first time trying too.
Made it on Cape Saturday afternoon. Fished alone after dinner for 90 minutes near West Dennis beach. Local report: several keepers caught Sat morning on the beach, surface plugs. Lots of keeper bass caught along the Nantucket sound shore from Hyannisport to Chatham livelining herring, lots of herring still in certain rivers. I landed a dozen schoolies up to 26", wind hard from the south.
Got back to the family gathering, got brother-in-law and son interested in a morning run. Headed out at 5:30 (late), it was already light before 4:30. West Dennis beach was alive with busting fish, although visible on the flat calm water they were beyond even the biggest atom popper's reach. Wind picked up so we hit a few schoolies up inside Bass River and headed to Herring River before he went back to join the families for breakfast.
Herring River had balls of sand eels and last years herring outside the river, and herring still entering the river. My son hooked up a sizeable fish that kicked his butt, churned up the surface, ripped the line out of the basket and spit the hook. He was fishing a sand eel pattern on the subtle shoal and trenches. Lots of locals were live-lining herring, and there were a few filleted keepers and NON-KEEPERS laying along the stretch we waded. Time to alert the officers of the problem. A huge fish took two swipes at a discarded live-line herring right in front of my son and I. The swirl was the size of my kitchen table, and I chopped the sand eel off and threw on a big herring fly. Yeah I know he just swallowed a foot long herring but something about seeing that - you just gotta cast. And cast and cast. We were back at the cottage before 8am.
This morning my son and I made a very brief run at the big fish near Herring river. There were 5 more carcasses filleted in a certain spot from the night before - and one fish was probably 24" at best. Really got me pissed. I have seen guys who resembled the Gloucester fisherman filleting shorts along this stretch before, obviously feeding himself and family but there are better ways to do that.
Anyway, the fish were blasting small herring from 4:30 to 5:30 and shut down when the sun got strong. Never say the big fish (other than the carcasses) we saw the day before and the locals were not livelining today. We scooted into an estuary area looking for warm water (boy the water temps really dropped in the sound) and where we felt the warm water on the light waders we found fish. Nothing big, we spent 45 minutes battling schoolies from 18-25" and got back in time for breakfast with the relatives.
Lessens learned:
a) When young herring get the attention of the bass, they focus on these schools and are less apt to eat every sand eel fly in sight. Time to tie more juvies.
b) The onshore wind brought the fish in Saturday morning, offshore wind pushed them out of everyone's reach Sunday
c) Cooling water turned the fishing off and warmer inside estuaries saved the day again
d) Carry a persuasive pattern for any surprise cow encounter
e) As brood size bass arrive from spawning grounds in May, the availability of large bass from shore is high on Nantucket Sound
f) hordes of herring in (some rivers) still arriving, now is the time to fish the big flies near the mouths of these rivers
RE:Holiday fishing report
Its funny how anticipation distorts the reality of whats to be. I envisioned a couple of hours attacking chores sandwiched between long hours of fishing. The reality was a couple of hours fishing, around high tide, with long hours of yard work in between.
Fished Bass River, mostly across from Stage Island. The times I was there the flow was slow and little action apparent (none for me). Sat. AM I was picking up weed on every cast, got frustrated and decided to go over to Cold Storage. Walked east a mile or two casting, once in a while, but much going on. Nice being there though.
Sunday, did the same drill. Started at Bass river - less weed - so I spent a little more time - same results. Went to Cold Storage. The wind was out of the NNE. Decided it would be a good time to work on the backcast. Did that for about an hour then hit the chores.
I really wanted to take some time to explore and scope out access to various locations - didn't work out.
Juro, again thanks for the feedback.

Life Among The Rapids
Congo River rapids between Ubundu and Kisangani. The Congo River is the deepest river in the world. Image courtesy of Terese Hart
How Deep Is It?
Have you ever watched a river flow? Depending on the river, it can be a bit like watching grass grow, which is to say... boring. But, if you find the right place on the right river, they can be pretty amazing, and you never know what's going to come down or out of the river. If you are even more adventurous, you can take a whitewater rafting trip and feel the character and power of a river. Now, that's an experience that can make you think. Researchers working on rivers put a lot of thought into what it's like to live in a river and they are finding some rivers are great places to study how species change.
- Evolution In Action - Isolation and Speciation In The Lower Congo River at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tObYa9KQb8w
No Duh's and Head Scratchers
If you need help scratching a mental itch, use the resources below:
- How does the complexity of the lower Congo River create opportunities for speciation? Do you think all rivers have this sort of complexity? Why or why not?
- How does the morphological diversity of fish in the lower Congo compare to the genetic diversity? Do you think this situation is common or rare around the world? Explain your thinking fully and use specific examples where possible.
- Why do researchers believe they are seeing evolution in action in the lower Congo? Do you agree with this interpretation? Why or why not? Can you think of another explanation for what researchers are finding?
- How do you think species diversity in the lower Congo would be affected if the river was dammed? Explain your thinking as fully as possible. Do you think effects would vary on different sides of the dam? Why or why not? What information would you need to gather to test your hypothesis?
