My girlfriend bought me this helmet because I liked the looks of it so much. If you are thinking about getting this helmet, go to the local shop and try it on first. Normally I wear a small, but I got a Medium and the helmet itself fits great. The muzzle on the other hand is another story. I received this helmet today and I have to say that I am disappointed with the product. Although the setup looks amazing, for me the muzzle does not work well. I have it on its furthest setting and its flimsy and within 5 minutes the bridge of my nose was bothering me from the muzzle rubbing on it. This is without the winter guard in place because it would not fit otherwise. I am a fan of BELL helmets and in my opinion save your money, skip this helmet and but something like the Drifter that looks amazing as well.
Very comfortable helmet. I don't mind it but I've heard others don't like the way the face mask feels, especially over the nose. I'd recommend trying one on prior to purchase just to make sure. But all in all very happy. Gets compliments from everyone, even bikers who hate helmets.
Love the helmet!
Great look and fit. I get a lot of questions and compliments from other riders.
nice quality as youd expect from a bell helmet...but without the mask it definitely looks odd. So unless you plan on wearing the mask youre gonna have obvious mushroom head
GREAT HELMET!always the best from j&p everytime i order from them!. went by the sizing chart, fits perfectly. for the people complaining about the muzzle its not ment to be worn away from the face. its suppose to fit close to your face. Tighten the facemask down and use the metal bar on the inside pad to mold the inner mask to your nose. should be able to find a perfect fit. GREAT PRODUCT !
Just received my bell helmet and looks wicked, wits freakin great, and the nose piece is spot on...Been ridin dirt and street bikes most all my life 50 yrs old now and have always worn helmets,kee nbraces,boots etc..i know my helmet size 57-58 cm. Ordered a medium per bell chart and no rocket science the dam thing fit like a top shelf helmet does..need to go try on a bunch of different brand helmets at local bike shop to see first hand your size. Really cool helmet highly recommend it !!
This is my third helmet and by far my favorite. Love the look and feel.
My son loves this new helmet. It sits too high for my head but fits him perfect.
This is an awesome helmet, I recieved great service start to finish on this product. The functionality is great and makes it versatile for those who dont like a full face helmet.
This is an awesome helmet, I recieved great service start to finish on this product. The functionality is great and makes it versatile for those who dont like a full face helmet.
I added the Sena SMH10R and all the wires and stuff tucked in very well..
just a thought. without a full face shield like on a modular wouldnt the rain soak your ungoggled portion of face and run down into the muzzle guard and beyond?
Very pleased with this helmet, it looks very good. I do recommend trying one on if you can, I'm from europe and could only aquire one from ordering online, because of european safety regulation differs from DOT standards. So I measured my head and got 58cm (Medium) and it fits nicely. can see why some people have issues with the facemask around the nose though, It doesn't bother me too much and I found a comfortable setting, but still, that's why I would advice to fit first. Thanks JP for the quick service, definetly coming back here again!
I would highly recommend to anyone who wants a very comfortable and cool looking helmet. Surprisingly light weight compared to my old helmet, HJC is 2. This helmet does turn a lot of heads!
Love this helmet ! I have MANY helmets from over the past 45 years, and this helmet is in my top 5 for sure ! This helmet was very well designed & was built w/high quality parts, like the German designed & made "Fidlock" system ! A little advise to the "Wanna-be's who are crying that this helmet is no-good. If you knew how to wear a helmet, it would then work for you ! this helmet was a Home-run by BELL !
This helmet saved my life. I had an accident a couple of days ago and I can tell you the helmet did his job with flying colors. I was thrown from my bike at 55 miles an hour and I'm here tell it. Somewhere along my ejection the helmet got hit and only lost the paint. I walked out of the scene with just some minor injuries. I'm definitely buying it again. 10 stars for safety.
Took a gamble. Measured my head and went by the fitment guide. I just KNEW when the helmet got here it would be too small. NOPE! PERFECT FIT! This is the most comfortable helmet I've ever worn. No fatigue whatsoever. Love the clip-on mask. Looks cool, and is actually pretty comfortable. Definitely worth the money.
Its a very good helmet. The face shield feels awkward when used together with the interior attachment. It places pressure on the nose. When the attachment is removed there is still some pressure on the nose but not as much. This is a really cool looking helmet. I would recommend it to someone looking for a half helmet.
Great looking helmet. The attachable face shield looks cool, and eventually is easy to get on and off. It will probably shatter on hard contact with a hard service, but I didn't buy it for the face shields protection anyway... comfortable too.
Nice but a little heavy
Ok my wife is gonna kill me! "Another helmet?!" I can't help it I'm hard to please. But this bad boy! Yeah buddy, looks just like what I've been looking for, for a long time. Full face protection in half-helmet? Are you kidding me?? I can convert it when I want? Plus nothing else looks like it! Like an alien-robot-I-don't-know-what?! Loaded with features and still under 300 male deers.....cool! Can't wait!
this is one trick helmet. you will not be disappointed and J&P service is second to none.

text: I hit the woods about 45 minutes before daylight. After about sitting there about 25 minutes I started to here Birds. Never did here them Pitch down, But aftera few I started to here Gobbling, I had a Hen and Jake decoys out, I did a few soft calling, and the Birds would respond to everytime I would Call, They seemed Like they were on Fire, But they seemed like they were 2 toms, and like they were moving back and forth, But would never come towards me. I may try and get into the Back of the woods, where they were and sit up, By skirting the Field edge. But I am not real sure what tree there in and do not want to get busted. Someone told me they are probably hened up, And the hens would take them the other way when you can? Any tips from you Pro's.

Family: Catostomidae, Suckers view all from this family
Description The longnose sucker, Catostomus catostomus, is a freshwater species of fish inhabiting cold, clear waters in North America from northern USA to the top of the continent. In addition, it is one of two species of sucker to inhabit Asia, specifically the rivers of eastern Siberia. The body of the longnose sucker is long and round with dark olive or grey sides and top and a light underside. They are typically 15 - 25 inches long and weigh between one and two lb.
The longnose sucker is a bottom-feeding fish, eating aquatic plants, algae, and small invertebrates. They are preyed upon by larger predatory fish, such as bass, walleye, trout, northern pike, muskellunge, and burbot. They are fished for game and food and also used as bait to catch the larger predators.
Longnose suckers are often confused with white suckers, as they appear very similar.
Dimensions Up to 25 1/2" (64 cm).
Habitat Lakes & ponds, Rivers & streams.
Range Plains, Great Lakes, New England, Mid-Atlantic, Rocky Mountains, Southeast, Northwest, Eastern Canada, Western Canada, Alaska.


text:
Track Hindprint 1 1/4" (3133 mm) long, with 5 toes printing; foreprint slightly smaller, with 4 toes printing.
Sign Burrow mounds are less conspicuous than those of Black-tailed Prairie Dog, and are looser and not tamped down as thoroughly. An occasional burrow may have no discernible mound at all, probably because the loose earth has washed away.

Can you make a video showing us how to use this cartridge, I just ordered a Cricut Expression and it won't be delivered until Thursday, but I bought Celebrate With Flourish on sale at Walmart and don't understand the card that came with it at all!!! It looks nothing like the little books that I see in your videos.ReplyDelete

Added yet another CL package to Debian.
Spent 10 hours working on a homework. That was pretty bad. After a while a resistance builds up and it becomes harder and harder to slog through problems; this doesn't help one bit.
Now I am looking forward to wasting many an hour watching Kenshin. It's long.
xach: See the CL package system if you haven't already. Of course, making a proper interface to your code is not necessarily easy. It usually fairly simple to load files from your implementation's init-scripts, if you want to do that as well.
shlomif: Debian has a filesystem hierarchy standard, so there is method to our madness. And Mandrake lacks APT (afaik) so they do not have the same tools ;-)

I already prepped my 5 frame Nuc with tar paper but left on an empty super. I'm a new been and I'm on Long Island. I have been feeding them using the the Mountain camper method and now I'm wondering if I made a mistake by leaving an empty super above the 5 frames. Should I leave well enough alone or should I cut back the tar paper and remove the empty super or fill it with some insulating material. They are eating the sugar just fine.
Please need heelp asap it's really cold here today on Long Island.

In 1951, American/Japanese artist and designer Isamu Noguchi started to design the Akari Light Sculptures, a total of over 100 hand-made Shoji-paper models for table lights, standard lamps or ceiling luminaires. For the name of this lighting series he chose the word "akari", the Japanese terms for brightness, light. Collection Vitra Design Museum.
"The light of Akari is like the light of the sun filtered through the paper of shoji. The harshness of electricity is thus transformed through the magic of paper back to the light of our origin - the sun - so that its warmth may continue to fill our rooms at night." (Isamu Noguchi)

An Ocean Louisiana Purchase in the Making
Posted On May 22, 2012 by Jeff Watters
Imagine if the United States could lay claim over vast stretches of pristine open ocean and coral reefs in the Pacific Ocean. What if we could expand our nation's control over the marine environments in the Arctic, the Gulf of Alaska and the Bering Sea? And how might it benefit our country if we could extend our existing maritime borders along the East Coast, West Coast and the Gulf of Mexico?
It would be like a giant ocean Louisiana Purchase. Except this time, the United States wouldn't have to pay a dime.
Expansion of U.S. borders may seem like the stuff of history books. But what I'm talking about here isn't history. And it isn't fantasy. It's a very real choice facing the U.S. Senate right at this very moment.

Cosa impari in questo corso?
Skills and Training
Know Yourself; Know the Tests
You may have heard that you can't study for the ACT or SAT, but that's just not true! There are a bunch of things you can do to prepare for the ACT and SAT, and the more time you spend preparing, the better your scores will be. In our first lesson, we'll go over all the things you need to know about the general makeup of both the ACT and SAT so you'll know exactly what you're getting into come test day. You'll learn how to relax when you start feeling panicky, how to eliminate the wrong answers the tests try to entice you into choosing, how to guess when you aren't sure of the right answer, and how much time to spend on each question. And, if you aren't familiar with the kinds of questions that test your verbal skills, you'll know exactly what to expect once you've completed this lesson.
Master the Reading Questions
You've been reading since first grade, but that's not enough experience to get you ready for the ACT and SAT passage-based reading questions. There's more to these babies than just reading a passage and working through the related questions, and after this lesson, you'll have the tools you need to develop your own personal reading strategy. You'll learn how to glide through even the most tiresome reading topics by focusing on what's important and ignoring what isn't. You'll find out how to eliminate answers that hook other unprepared test-takers. Then you'll see how to spot the distracters the test-makers use to make wrong answers seem right.
Practice on the ACT Reading Questions
Knowledge is power, but practice makes perfect! In this lesson, we'll steer through ACT reading comprehension passages that have appeared on past tests to give you a step-by-step approach for getting the most information from the passages in the least amount of time. You'll practice your skills on actual ACT reading test questions, and have the opportunity to discuss your efforts with your instructor and other classmates.
Practice on the SAT Reading Questions
Today, you'll rehearse for your SAT passage reading performance by completing practice tests created by actual SAT test-makers. You'll learn the most efficient way to read through SAT passages, and you'll get a detailed analysis of reading questions. You'll know just what a question is looking for and how to weed through all of the possible answer choices to pick out the right ones.
Master the SAT Sentence-Completion Questions
The SAT sentence completion questions test your reading ability and your knowledge of vocabulary. In this lesson, you'll learn how to improve your vocabulary without memorizing boring word lists. You'll also get the tactics you need to dissect each sentence to extract its exact meaning so you'll know just what answer choice makes it whole.
Learn the Grammar You Need for the SAT and ACT
You've got to know grammar for both the ACT and the SAT and this lesson gives you the goods. But it won't bore you with every grammar rule known (or unknown) to the English-speaking public. We'll only review the rules that are most commonly tested on the ACT and SAT. And we'll focus on the kinds of errors the tests like to see if you know. Often, those errors are the ones you might be least familiar with. So today, you'll discover how to spot them and correct them.
Learn How to Ace the ACT English Usage Section
It's not enough to know the rules of grammar. You also need to know how the ACT tests your knowledge, and that's what this lesson is all about. Today, we'll go over some detailed explanations on how to approach ACT English questions. You'll find out what you need to pay attention to and what you can disregard when you're examining each of the paragraphs for errors.
Thrive on the SAT English Questions
The SAT has three different multiple-choice question types to test your grammar and English usage skills, and in today's lesson, you'll get a detailed strategy for tackling each one of them. You'll learn what errors crop up most commonly in the identifying errors questions so you can focus your attention on what's important. You'll also find out how you can spot errors in the improving sentences questions just by noticing what types of words are underlined in the questions. You'll also learn which questions are best to skip if you notice that you're running short of time.
Prepare the Student-Written Essay
For years, colleges and universities have complained that freshmen don't know how to write. So now, through the ACT and SAT, they're going to get a sample of the way potential students write before they even get to college. Writing an essay is a new skill tested on the ACT and SAT. And if the thought of writing a complete analysis of a topic in 30 minutes or less has you running for the hills, don't despair. In this lesson, you'll learn a specific plan for making the most of your time so you can prove to the admissions committee of your favorite college that you can put your thoughts together in a cohesive and interesting essay.
Practice for the Student-Written Essay
Before you impress the ACT and SAT essay readers, you'll get a chance to wow your peers. In this lesson, you'll compose a sample essay and share it with your instructor and classmates for review. You'll also get the chance to read what other test-takers write and provide them with your enlightened commentary!
Excel on the ACT Science Test
The science questions on the ACT involve more reading than calculating, so we'll go over them here in this course to show you how to excel on questions that test your verbal skills. Today you'll learn how to accurately read graphs and charts. You'll also learn how to extract a bunch of information about experiments without wasting too much precious time reading through the fluff.
Wrap Up the Course
You'll get a lot of information in six weeks in this course, and you probably won't remember it all, even with all the additional work you put into each lesson. So in this last lesson, we'll review all of the tips and strategies you'll need to know to do your best on the verbal questions on the ACT and SAT. In this lesson, we'll make sure you understand the elements of each question type, review what you should focus on, and show you how to best spend your study until you enter the exam site and strut your stuff on test day.

I read this this morning and it looks like something that we all could do, in one way or another.
This man makes a point of reading shooting magazines when he travels or when he's out in a waiting room, etc. He says when other people see what he's reading, a conversation usually starts.
He says he doesn't look to convert anyone, he's just a soft-spoken, reasonable guy who happens to enjoy responsibly owning and shooting guns.
He does not consider himself an exception but rather a member of the vast majority of law-abiding, responsible gun owners across the nation.
Many people in our country are not anti-gun but many are uninformed about who we as gun owners are. Educating those folks is an important job.
It sounds like this is one thing we all can do.

Low calcium level - infants
Hypocalcemia is an abnormally low blood calcium level. This article discusses low blood calcium level in infants.
Calcium is a salt that helps the heart and muscles work. A healthy baby usually has very careful control of blood calcium level.
Hypocalcemia is more likely to occur in newborns, especially in those who were born too early (preemies). Common causes of hypocalcemia in a newborn include:
There are also some rare illnesses that can lead to low calcium level, such as DiGeorge syndrome and congenital hypoparathyroidism.
Babies with hypocalcemia often have no symptoms. Sometimes, babies with low calcium levels are jittery or have tremors or twitching. Rarely, they have seizures.
These babies may also have a slow heart rate and low blood pressure.
Diagnosis is usually made when a blood test shows that the infant's calcium level is low.
The baby may get extra calcium, if needed.
Problems with low calcium level in newborns or premature infants usually do not continue long-term.

Please click here to register for the Luxury FirstLook: Strategy 2013 conference on Wednesday, Jan. 16, 2013 [2]
Registration is open for the Luxury FirstLook: Strategy 2013 conference Wednesday, Jan. 16, 2013 featuring speakers from Bentley Motors, Tourneau, Waldorf Astoria, Tumi, St. Regis, Forrester Research, Polar Mobile, Affluent Insights, Kargo and The Luxury Institute. This daylong New York event is a must-attend for luxury brands, luxury retailers, ad agencies and publishers looking to develop and implement luxury marketing and retail strategies and tactics in 2013, a year where economic uncertainty may slow growth and affect consumer spending.
At this exclusive summit organized by this publication at the National Museum of the American Indian across from Manhattan's Battery Park downtown, attendees will get to listen and meet with key executives moving the needle for luxury marketing and retail. The conference, whose agenda is below, will be limited to only 200 delegates.
"The luxury industry proved its mettle over the past few years, weathering economic slowdown and worries over emerging markets in Asia," said Mickey Alam Khan, editor in chief of Luxury Daily, New York. "Such resilience is the result of putting the customer first.
"But there is still the potential for surprise in 2013 if Chinese growth slows, Europe does not recover and technology is not fully embraced to continue the dialogue and strengthen loyalty bonds with new and existing customers," he said. "Besides good product, smart marketing and holding the price line are essential for luxury marketers seeking to maintain their growth trajectory."
This conference will help luxury marketers set out customer-first priorities with attention paid to maintaining brand integrity while adopting new mobile and social technology and marketing, the path to a multichannel strategy and the future of content and media.
Also under discussion will be marketing to a new generation of luxury customers, the impact of Web experiences on luxury retailers over the holidays, moving from one-touch to high-touch and emerging luxury trends. A market research session will focus on how customer experience is not only transforming but defining luxury brands.
Attendees will get access to all presentations made at the event.
The event is priced at $595 for the day, which includes breakfast, lunch and cocktails. Refunds will not be given 72 hours before the event or no-shows on the day of the conference.
For sponsorship, please contact email@example.com [5] for prompt attention.

As one of the world's most respected market researchers, Forrester Research has a bird's-eye view of companies' best and worst habits.

St. Regis Hotels & Resorts: Marketing to Generation luXurY
Part of Starwood's luxury portfolio which also includes the Luxury Collection Hotels & Resorts, St. Regis is in the midst of the biggest growth spurt since its launch. The brand will have nearly tripled its portfolio from 11 properties in 2008 to 31 in 2012 – with more hotels opening than at any other time in its history. However, these hotels are not the fusty sort, but growing off the traditional luxury grid to cater to a whole new generation of luxury consumers. After all, 85 percent of St. Regis' guests are Generation X or Y, born after 1961. In this session, attendees will learn:
– How the luxury customer profile has evolved in the past few years
– Marketing to Generations X and Y: the St. Regis way
– How St. Regis ties initiatives around brand passions

– What content consumption on mobile phones and tablets means for luxury-focused media brands with legacy interests
– Content monetization is still a hot topic, but mobile advertising is not returning any meaningful revenue yet. Some are calling for the end of freemium, so what monetization options do publishers have?
– Applications and mobile Web have been battling for supremacy for years, but app traffic regularly beats the mobile Web and, in some cases, the PC Web. Time to call a winner?
– Responsive Web design: an idea whose time has come?
– Why 2013 is key for luxury-focused publishers and content owners who want to be on the right side of mobile
Kunal Gupta, CEO, Polar Mobile

Emerging luxury marketing and retail trends in 2013 – and preparing for left-field surprises
Luxury brands and retailers enter a new year not knowing whether it will be an improvement over 2012 or if the status quo is the "new and improved." One thing is certain: a tough economy did not stop the luxury consumer from spending. Was it smart marketing, great product or extreme brand loyalty that kept the largest luxury houses – and even the smaller players – growing larger and stronger? The panel will dissect issues such as:
– Outlook for the economy in 2013: what luxury marketers should anticipate
– China: long or short?
– Consolidation in the luxury industry: good, bad, more?
– Mobile, social, Web: dilute the brand or strengthen it?
– Holding the price line: how difficult will it get?
– Hanging on to customer loyalty: is it getting easier?
– Extreme personalization: what does today's luxury customer really want?
– Maintaining the luxury brand's mystique: is it possible in this day and age?

Try chicken legs for a tasty change of pace. Grilled and glazed, these make a simple 30-minute main dish.
The lemon-honey sauce would also be great on other chicken pieces. Prepare as directed, adjusting the grilling time as needed; grill smaller pieces 10 to 15 minutes and larger pieces 20 to 40 minutes. Check doneness with a meat thermometer inserted into the center of the meat, not touching bone; when done, it should read at least 165°F. Be sure to grill the chicken until it is completely cooked before brushing with the sauce.

Not bad for the price 11/29/2010A customer from Wisconsin
We have a slightly earlier model but I don't see any changes in this one. I'm pretty sure the numbers for body fat, muscle, etc aren't what your real body fat percentage is, but it does definitely let you know whether it's going up or down. It gives you a base line that you can depend on, and if you do your exercises, you can watch your body fat count go down. And that's fun.
The only thing I wish it did was let me download its data somehow. That's why it doesn't get the fifth star. I finally started recording it in a spreadsheet so I could see trends. Like what Thanksgiving did to me and how long it took to counter it. Bottom line is, it's been fun and it's helped me stay on track.
Nice Scale - Accurate 11/28/2010Paul from Atlanta, GA
Works well for accurate weighing. Just be sure to wait until the "CAL" goes off the display before stepping onto the scale. Handles weights up to 330 lbs to one decimal place. Not too sure about the body age calculation - says that I am 80 vice my actual age of 49. Body age seems to be more forgiving for females. Overall, this scale is by far better than all the other scales I've purchased from the big box chain retailers.
Great, accurate scale ! 10/3/2010A customer from Milwaukee, WI
This is an excellent scale for anybody who really wants to know what's going on with their health. I had started exercising regularly and over the course of four weeks lost .4 pounds, this scale helped me to realize that I had also lost 4% body fat... so I didn't feel discouraged. I highly suggest it if you want accurate results.
Good scale 9/12/2010Mark from Virginia
Overall a good scale, does everything it claims and setup is pretty simple. The only issue I have is that you have to turn the scale off then back on again if you want to do a second weight. There is no way to reset it to 0 after taking a measurement.
Is this accurate? 8/24/2010A customer from San Antonio, Tx
Purchased this thinking I would be able to get a good, accurate bodyfat percentage reading. I've used the Omron handheld at my gym, and it says I have 12% bodyfat. I use this scale and it says 23% +- about 2%. 23%?!! You can see my six pack!! It says my body age is 47 (I'm 33 and workout 6 days a week). Of course my wife loves that feature because it says she's 27(she's 33). I like the fact that it shows your visceral fat and lean tissue, but I don't have anything to compare for accuracy purposes. It's good if you want to have a baseline and go from there as far as improvements and/or regression. For this price, you can't complain too much because you wouldn't get all the features you get in this one, regardless if they're accurate or not.
Good Scale 4/27/2009
The only reason I am giving it a 4 the two areas is that the RMR is very difficult to obtain... even after following the instructions to the letter.

Family: Colubridae, Colubrid Snakes view all from this family
Description 21-42" (53-106.7 cm). A red (or orange), black, and yellow (to white) snake; pattern of black-bordered red blotches separated by yellow rings; often appears ringed in all three colors. Several side blotches may be present. Light neck collar. Black border of red bands extends to first scale rows. Scales smooth, in 19-23 rows. Anal plate single.
Habitat Diverse: pine forests, open deciduous woodland, meadows, rocky hillsides, farmland.
Range Nw. Mississippi west to ne. Oklahoma, north to sw. Indiana, c. Illinois, Iowa, and extreme se. South Dakota. Intergrades with Scarlet Kingsnake and Eastern Milk Snake from sc. Kentucky south to n. Alabama.
Discussion There are currently nine recognized subspecies of the Common Milk Snake. Some are dull gray with brownish blotches, while others, including the Red Milk Snake, Scarlet Kingsnake, and New Mexico Milk Snake, have a bright ringed pattern reminiscent of the venomous coral snakes. A major difference between coral snakes and their imitators is that the red and yellow rings meet on the coral snake, while in the milk snakes, the red and yellow rings are separated by black.

Position Statement: Delayed FDA Removal of Painkiller Propoxyphene (Darvon, Darvocet) From U.S. Market Has Cost More Than 1,000 U.S. Lives (HRG Publication #1921)
The announcement by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that propoxyphene-containing products are finally going to be taken off the market – because of dangers previously known and acted upon, with bans announced in the UK almost six years ago, and in Europe, almost 1½ years ago – is a serious indictment of the FDA's long-lasting unwillingness to protect people in this country from a deadly but barely effective painkiller.

FDA's Decision to Pull Diet Pill Meridia Commendable, But Took Too Long for Drug's Victims (HRG Publication #1920)
The FDA's decision to ask pharmaceutical maker Abbott to withdraw the drug is commendable, but dangerously too late for all of the victims of its unacceptable risks.

FDA's Partial Hold on Unethical Diabetes Drug Trial Does Not Do Enough to Protect Patients (HRG Publication #1916)
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has gone only half-way in stopping the unethical TIDE study by halting the recruitment of any new patients. To allow the experiment to continue at all is a major breach in the FDA's obligation to protect people in clinical trials.

The location from where this panorama was taken can be seen from a previous GigaPan: gigapan.org/viewGigapan.php?id=27578&snapshot_id=91286.
The climb to the top was strenuous to say the least, but the intense heat had not arrived, so I survived. The view is indeed stunning and I would love to return with the D70 and the 70-200mm f/2.8, but that will only happen when the sky is blue and the temp is low.
The Google Earth View is very nice, and can be seen via the link, View in Google Earth.

Focus on Funds
Schwab's ETF 401(k) is Ready for Action, Pledging Cost Savings
If your retirement plan has scale, you've got low-cost options in your 401(k). But the definition of "low cost" is changing. Here comes Charles Schwab (SCHW) in an effort to ETF-ize retirement investing. This will be interesting to watch, since Schwab's plan will squeeze the least efficient 401(k) providers if it catches on.
The discount brokerage says this morning its all-exchange-traded fund 401(k) plan is ready to go after solving technical issues such as how to let investors own fractions of an ETF share. The 80 or so ETFs on offer will include a selection from 11 providers including Vanguard Group, BlackRock's (BLK) iShares, State Street Global Advisors and Schwab's own ETFs, reports Ashley Lau of Reuters.
Why do you need an ETF in your 401(k)? My own plan has passive index funds with expense ratios as low as 0.04%, which is about as rock-bottom as you can find. So you might not need ETFs. But lots of small retirement plans are stuffed with expensive actively managed mutual funds.
Since actively managed mutual funds routinely undershoot cheaper index funds, users of those plans could potentially benefit. Why hasn't it happened yet? The "why not" has been a mix of technical hurdles and reluctance by providers to undercut their own businesses.
Schwab's Steve Anderson makes clear in this morning's release that the company is going after the coziness of 401(k) providers and the mutual-fund industry:
Despite the obvious benefits of exchange-traded funds, mutual fund companies that dominate the 401(k) industry have largely ignored them – simply because these companies lack either the capabilities or the will to effectively accommodate exchange-traded funds in the retirement plans they offer. Others in the industry suggest that offering exchange-traded funds to 401(k) participants will lead to over-active trading, an argument not supported by the facts.2 We heard the same false argument 25 years ago when the industry began updating participant 401(k) balances on a daily basis, instead of quarterly," Anderson noted. "We believe in challenging the status quo and investing our resources to help drive positive change and contribute to better outcomes for hard-working Americans."
How much would it help? Schwab this morning says it believes it can reduce investment expenses by more than 90 percent versus a "typical" 401(k) plan based primarily on actively managed mutual funds, or more than 30 percent versus comparable plans using cheap index mutual funds.
Here's the footnote explaining how Schwab reaches this conclusion:
Based on Schwab Retirement Plan Services, Inc., research using (1) 2010 data from 195 defined contribution plans serviced by Schwab Retirement Plan Services, Inc., and Schwab Retirement Plan Services Company, and (2) 2010 data from a comparison set of plans serviced by other providers. In this comparison set, the weighted average operating expense ratio (OER) for midsize plans ($20 million–$100 million) using primarily actively managed funds was $55 to $95 per $10,000 invested, and for large plans ($100 million–$350 million) the OER was $50 to $75 per $10,000 invested. Index mutual fund estimate is based on an average weighted OER of $15 per $10,000 invested in plans that have implemented the index mutual fund version of Schwab Index Advantage and the estimated average weighted OER of $10 per $10,000 invested for the exchange-traded fund version of Schwab Index Advantage.

Really great stuff! How about posting the tech info? Tell us a bit more about how you shot the photos.
Photos look like you were right at water level. Were you shooting from a floating blind or do you have a pit blind at water's edge?
We are in the process of constructing a small wetland (100'X150') specifically to be a photo site. The main body of the wetland is going to be about 12" deep with about a 20 to 1 slope from the edge to provide good wading water for small shore birds. Am installing two 8X16 foot sunken blinds about 5' from the edge, one facing west for morning photography and one facing east for the afternoon. I can hardly wait to get it finished. It will, of course take a year or two for the vegetation community to mature (at first it will just be a shallow pond that should be good for reflections) .

Excellent! Would also like to hear more details of photos, how they were taken & where.
Excellent, still waist deep in snow up here, last year this time I had already shot 2000 frames of spring waterfowl, I'm thinking this late spring and lots of snow we have will make it a banner year for photo opportunities here in MN and a trip to ND... Keep them coming. Is it the 300 F/4 or the 300 2.8?? I have the 300 f/4 but it's a little short at times. If I can time it right with the migration and weather I am planning on taking a week off and renting a 500mm.
Dang it man now you got me craving duck kabobs
Seriously though some great pictures. Thanks for sharing.

Do you accept pets?
We do not allow pets, but our nearby Veterinary clinic offers boarding with the attitude that "Pets are like our children".
The Hasseman House was built in 1900 by two brothers from France, Fred and Emanuel Serquet. Their dream was to build the biggest house in Holmes County. They even invited their French friends over from France to help them build the house.
The Hasseman's purchased the farm from the brothers in 1919 and farmed there until Milo and Katherine Miller purchased the house and an additional 75 acres at an auction in June of 1994. The Millers traveled as far as the New England states to find just the right antiques to decorate the house. The house contains all original stained glass, woodwork, and wooden floors.
Two of the rooms were named after the Hasseman's children. Rhea's room was named after their only daughter and the Boy's room was named after the two boys, Theron and Doyle, who have passed away. Theron never married, but farmed the land until a few months before the auction. Rhea Hasseman - still living- is now Rhea Regula, former Ohio Congressman Ralph Regula's sister-in-law.

Firms push use of fiberglass linealsComments Email Print
Diversified Lineal Systems is making it easy for window and door assemblers to adopt pultruded fiberglass profiles as the supporting material.
Diversified Lineal is qualified as a supplier of fiberglass lineals by the American Architectural Manufacturers Association of Schaumburg, Ill. This means window and door firms can expect their products to meet building standards when they source fiberglass profiles from Diversified Lineal, Mark Back, the firm's director of operations, said in a telephone interview.
Since 1936, AAMA has been an advocacy agency for the fenestration industry and offers product certification, training and other services. Diversified Lineal's fiberglass profiles also are rated by the National Fenestration Rating Council of Greenbelt, Md.
Back said his company in Erlanger, Ky., provides technical support, training and marketing assistance to companies wanting to used fiberglass lineals in their products.
"Companies can go to us to get the whole system," Back explained. "We design production using tested and certified lineals."
Back said it is costly for an entrant in the fiberglass fenestration market to pay for product development, pultrusion dies and tests for certification.
One of the first companies to sign up with Diversified Lineal's turnkey package is Gilkey Window Co.
Gilkey Window is ramping up fiberglass window production and expects to have a good idea of market acceptance in September. In the early going it seems "to be working pretty good," owner Mike Gilkey said in a telephone interview.
"Basically fiberglass is a great fenestration material and this helps us with both the product's design and its performance," Gilkey said.
"The big advantages are strength and stability," he said.
Strength means the window frame can be slimmer, letting in more daylight. The slim look also mimics the originally installed windows.
"This is very important in a residential replacement window installation, where the homeowner may not want to advertise that he has 'replacement' windows," Gilkey said.
Stability is important because the more a material expands and contracts, the more the sealants will crack and leak, he added.
"We will strategically use fiberglass, where people will pay for a better-looking window," Gilkey said.
The extra retail price, about $700 for a fiberglass window vs. about $600 for vinyl, might not suit everyone's budget. Gilkey Window also offers vinyl, aluminum and wood windows.
With Diversified's support, Gilkey Window can be certified by AAMA. Gilkey Window pays Diversified Lineal a fee to have the test results put in its name.
Back said his company is investing multimillion dollars in expansion for its push in fiberglass window and door lineals.
"We have added more pultrusion machines for this [fenestration] market," Back said.
The expansion also involved adding a new paint line.
Diversified Lineal publicly announced its new turnkey service at the International Bulders' Show, held Jan. 22-24 in Las Vegas. The company began talks with Gilkey Window about a month earlier, Back recalled.
Diversified Lineal is a division of Diversified Structural Composites Inc. The parent company has been providing fiberglass lineals for years but the launch of the new division is a strategic move into the fenestration market.
Back said the window and door production market is highly fragmented. Large companies such as Andersen Corp. of Bayport, Minn., and Marwin Windows and Doors of Warroad, Minn., only hold 20-25 percent of the U.S. market, he estimated.
Such fragmentation makes it hard for a fenestration producer to get into a new raw material like fiberglass and Diversified Lineal saw an opportunity to meet market needs.
Diversified Structural's predecessor company, Diversified Fabricators, was established in 1978. In early days it focused on technical carbon/epoxy products. The firm still works with carbon- fiber-reinforced resins and other systems in pultrusion and other processes. It can choose other specialty reinforcements — aramid, quartz, S-glass — for unusual applications. It has the capability to selectively place reinforcement in the pultrusion, as it does with braided reinforcements.
Diversified Structural works with polyester thermosets, vinyl ester, epoxy, urethanes and other resin systems. It can make rods as thin as 0.011 inch and panels of up to 250 pounds. Its value-added services include machining, thermoplastic coating, assembly and painting.
Mainstay jobs include spars, ski poles and hobby components. New from Diversified Structural is a sound wall for highways that allows longer spans with lower weight, high strength, corrosion resistance and a lower per-job cost.
Back said pultruded fiberglass has advantages in windows and doors, combining desirable properties of vinyl and aluminum. It has structural strength approaches aluminum and it can take dark colors like metal. Its thermal properties are close to vinyl and its coefficient of expansion is equal to that of glass, a boon to structural integrity.
Back said Diversified Lineal will launch a product line in September targeting production of a full fiberglass sliding patio door system. The company plans to exhibit at the GlassBuild America trade show, scheduled for Sept. 10-12 in Atlanta.
Fiberglass windows are a small part of the market but are gaining traction. They once held about 2 percent of the U.S. window market but have grown to a 3.2 percent share recently, according to a study by AAMA and the Window and Door Manufacturers Association of Washington.
One observer feels commercial buildings could be a good growth area for fiberglass windows because the material's insulative ability, like vinyl, surpasses aluminum.
"Energy efficiency is more important in the commercial market, where engineers look to every part of a building for savings," according to Steve Van Kouteren, business director of reports for research firm Principia Partners LLC of New York.
Fiberglass windows might gain wider acceptance with the entry into the U.S. market by international building materials conglomerate James Hardie Industries plc. In April 2012 James Hardie bought the profile pultrusion business of Teel Plastics Inc. James Hardie renamed the pultrusion business in Baraboo, Wis., Razor Composites LLC. James Hardie, big in cement/fiber building materials made the move to diversify. James Hardie is based in Dublin and has management offices in Sydney. Its North American base is in Mission Viejo, Calif.
Diversified Structural is a subsidiary of Japanese conglomerate Teijiin Ltd. of Tokyo. Overall Diversified Structural runs more than 20 pultrusion lines.
