Laurent Koscielny says he has everything he needs to be happy at Arsenal - and believes the team can challenge for the Premier League title this year.
The composed central defender enjoyed a superb second season for the Gunners last term, and was rewarded with a call-up to the France squad for Euro 2012.
The 26-year-old signed a new long-term contract with the Club last month, and he says the decision to stay at Emirates Stadium was an easy one.
"I am happy here - I play for a big club, I am happy on the pitch and my family are happy here so I don't want to leave," Koscielny told Arsenal Player.
"This is the first club I have stayed at for more than two years. I want to stay because I have everything [I need] to be happy here.
"I like everyone who works at this club, I like the fans, I am very happy to play for the boss and my team-mates are nice, so my decision to stay was natural."
Koscielny is optimistic about the new season, and says the team have learnt some key lessons from last year's experiences.
"If we start well, we can get into the race for the title," he said. "We saw last year that we had some difficulties at the start of the season, but afterwards you saw the real team.
"You need to work together, win together and help team-mates, and if [the start to] the season is good we can do something in the league."

Citation: Einhorn, T., Turner, J., Laraway, D., Bell, R.L. 2012. Cropload management and appropriate harvest timing improves final fruit size and fruit quality of US 71655-014, a new fire blight resistant European pear selection [abstract]. ASHS Annual Conference Progam. p. 52. Interpretive Summary:
Technical Abstract: US71655-014 ('Gem') is a fire blight resistant pear selection developed at the USDA Appalachian Fruit Research Station. Despite possessing several positive attributes (precocity, high annual production, attractive fruit appearance, fire blight resistance good storability and consumer acceptance), 'Gem' is a small-fruited genotype. The Pacific Northwest pear industry prefers large-fruited cultivars (exceeding 200 g). We, therefore, examined two strategies to improve fruit size of 'Gem'. First, a two-year cropload study was initiated on six leaf trees. Croploads were established by thinning at 50 days after full bloom to four cropload levels based on the number of fruit per cm-squared of trunk cross-sectional area (TCA): T1) 8-10 fruit per cm-squared TCA; T2) 6-8 fruit per cm-squared TCA; T3) 2-4 fruit per cm-squared TCA; and T4) commercially thinned to 'Bartlett' standards (3-5 fruit per cm--squared TCA, determined after thinning). Fruit weight at harvest was 150 g, 171 g, 208 g, and 203 g for T1, T2, T3, and T4, respectively. Frequency, distribution of larger fruit size classes was markedly improved for T3 and T4. Individual tree yields averaged 30 kg for T3 and T4, roughly half of T1. However, canopy volume and TCA of T3 and T4 indicated that trees could be planted at higher densities to attain adequate yields of high-quality fruit. Return bloom and fruit load was not significantly affected by cropload in either year. Cropload level strongly predicted fruit weight at harvest and could serve as a production management tool to target fruit weight for a given market. In 2011, we examined the role of harvest maturity on fruit size and quality following cold storage and ripening. Fruit were harvested weekly for four weeks. The initial harvest occurred when fruit attained a previously identified fruit firmness (FF) value coinciding with maximum storability (approximately seven months). At each harvest, fruit was weighed, placed in regular atmosphere storage (-1degree C), and evaluated monthly for seven months. Fruit quality attributes (FF, soluble solids, total acids, extractable juice, and fruit weight) were assessed upon removal from cold storage. An additional sample per replication was ripened for seven days at 20 degrees C and evaluated for quality attributes. Fruit size was markedly improved with delayed harvest dates. Although 'Gem' is not a melting pear, ripened fruit softened and extractable juice decreased as duration in storage increased, irrespective of harvest timing. Changes in fruit quality attributes relative to harvest maturity and storage duration will be presented.

Children in North Side Kidnapping Found Safe
Two children who were kidnapped in an apparent car theft on the north side have been found safe, 1200 WOAI news reports.
A car with two children, aged 8 months and two years, both in car seats, inside was stolen from the Lovin' Care Child Development Center in the 16000 block of Henderson Pass.
The car was found abandoned a few minutes later and the children, and one of the car seats, were missing.
Police say a man walked into the Child Development Center and asked to use the rest room right before the car was stolen.
The two children were found safe about thirty minutes later in an apartment at the Canyon Point Apartmentrs at 16550 Henderson Pass.
Officers say this is not a child custody case and right now it appears to be a stranger kidnapping.
So far the suspects have not been located.

Low bee numbers in the fall and they could not heat the winter cluster. What had your treatment for mites been?
have any yellowjacket problems, or wasps? i have lost hives like that and I'm pretty sure that it was late loss of the queen or harassment from yellowjackets. were there any dead bees in the hive, or were they all just gone?
What about the brood? Is there any.Jim
Thanks for the up date. You may find 1 hive is much stronger due to this. Jim
How close are you to agricultural land? Do you have a lot of corn or soy crops within 3 miles of you?If so they have collected systemic poisons in weak doses, condensed it ( turned it into honey) and when they started using it the poison levels were high enough to cause the colony to collapse. Remember how bad they said DDT was and they measured it in levels of parts per million, the new systemics are measured in parts per billion and they are more neurological. Was there capped brood and maybe open brood still in the hive?
Mark,Where did you get your bees from? I ask the because it may be that your bees are survivor bees that have developed the genes to recognize mites in the larva and clean them out. I have 14 hives, one of which is an observation hive with clean out trays. I never see mites on the bees and only see one or two mites a week in the trays. Sometimes none for weeks. I just checked the trays of the other hives after a 24 hour test and on average found one mite per hive, some none, one had two. Good hygenetics can make all the difference.Jim
I always look for signs of mites. Dead Varroa mites along with dead bees on the bottom. If you find thousands upon thousands of mites, then it is probably mites. I also look for little white flecks in the brood comb (Varroa feces). If you lack both, then it's doubtful it was mites. Also, I would expect a lot of dead bees if it was mites. Since they are gone, and not dead, it sounds more like other issues or a slow enough die off that they hauled out the dead as they succumbed. Sometimes they abscond. Sometimes they die.

Posted by Scott Santucci on February 6, 2013
When you put the word "sales" and "enablement" together – it sure can mean a lot of different things – to a lot of different people.
As the Research Director on Forrester's Sales Enablement team – it's a problem I see every day.
What's entertaining about this (or aggravating, if you are a sales enablement professional inside a large company) is that not only do many people view those two combined words differently – many of those people are extremely confident their own perspective is the right one. Given what we publish, the number of presentations we give, all of the cross-functional group settings we run into – you might imagine we've heard our fair share of strong opinions.
Here are a few highlights of my favorite "certainties:"
· Sales enablement is just lipstick on a knowledge management pig.
· Sales enablement is the new label for sales training.
· Product marketers have been enabling sellers for years, what's the big deal?
· Sales people should be enabling themselves with all of the resources we provide them.
· Marketing should own sales enablement, because it is clearly a content issue, and the sales force doesn't have access to good content.

Arsenal Football Club presented Islington Law Centre with a grant of £15,000 on Tuesday, October 7 to help modernise the centre's reception area and extend the centre's much-used services.
The money is part of The Arsenal Section 106 Community Benefit Fund, which was a one-off funding round which ran between the end of 2007 and early 2008, and represents one of the many community benefits which has been created as a direct result of Arsenal's move to Emirates Stadium.
The centre is now the only charitable legal advice provider in the Borough with a reception open to the public. It sees hundreds of people come through the doors every week in urgent need of help so the money will help to improve the front line of its services.
Ken Friar, Director of Arsenal Football Club added: "We're delighted to see the continued regenerative benefits of the Emirates Stadium project contributing to the local area. Arsenal wishes Islington Law Centre every success for the Open Day and for the continued services they provide."
Ruth Hayes of Islington Law Centre said: "We're delighted to be awarded this grant. We are now the only advice centre in the Borough with a reception area open to the public 5 days a week, so we are really keen to tell people what we do and how our services will be improved."
The priorities for Arsenal's Section 106 Community Benefit funding were established through close consultation with the community. Funding was allocated to 21 groups all ranging in size - some from very small tenants and residents' associations to schools and more established voluntary and community groups.

The IOM Global Human Trafficking Database
• The International Organization for Migration (IOM) is using a unique tool to monitor the assistance and collect information on the victims of trafficking (VoTs) it assists. The IOM Global Human Trafficking Database is a global repository of only primary data on registered victims of trafficking (VoTs), and contains data on approximately 20,000 registered victims of more than 85 different nationalities trafficked to more than 100 destination countries (December, 2010).
• It is a standardized anti-trafficking data-management tool available to all IOM missions and is actively used throughout all regions of the world. Containing only primary information, this unique tool specifically facilitates the management of the whole IOM direct assistance, movement and reintegration process through a centrally managed system as well as mapping the victim's trafficking experience. The structure follows the format of the accompanying IOM VoT questionnaires, used by IOM missions and partnering organizations involved in direct assistance, and containing a wealth of information both of a quantitative and qualitative nature: the Screening Interview Form is intended to assess whether the individual is a victim of trafficking and thus eligible for an IOM's assistance project; and the Assistance Interview Form stands to track the nature of direct assistance given along with documenting further details of the trafficking experience.
• While initially designed as a case management tool for IOM counter-trafficking direct assistance programmes, the system quickly demonstrated its added value to research. The aim of the database is to contribute to the general knowledge on trafficking in persons, trafficking trends and to help governments, research institutes as well as other institutions to better tailor CT policies and programmes.
Extended migration profile in Moldova
• Migration profile represents a framework for data collection, analysis and dissemination in support of strategic migration policy planning at the national and regional levels. It brings existing information from different sources together in a structured manner as a means to identify and develop strategies to address data and policy development needs. In order to become a sustainable effective information tool for policy making, the Migration Profile is government-owned and will be updated on a yearly basis.
• Enhancing governmental capacities to more effectively manage migration by preparing an Extended Migration Profile (MP) which is to be used as a policy instrument to promote more comprehensive and proactive approaches:
- To enhance governmental knowledge about migration and its relationship to development;
- To support government in establishing mechanisms for regular reporting on migration-related trend;
- To improve the use of migration information for policy development;
- To foster greater inter-ministerial coordination and collaboration with respect to data collection and policy development.
Ongoing work and forthcoming activities:
• The Moldovan Government launched the process of regular preparing an Extended Migration Profile (EMP) in spring 2010, with the support of the EU-funded project "Supporting the implementation of the migration and development component of the EU-Moldova Mobility Partnership" implemented by IOM. Work continued in 2012 to develop the first report, and ensure the national ownership of the instrument. The aim of the Extended Migration Profile exercise is to foster efficient migration management through supporting the development of evidence-based policies and mechanisms for regular reporting on migration-related trends. Including information such as numbers of immigrants, refugees and asylum seekers, emigrants, results of labour market analysis and an analysis on skill shortages, the Extended Migration Profile also allows measuring the impact of the EU-Moldova Mobility Partnership and contributes evidence to an initial assessment of the impact of future visa liberalization. On 24 August 2012, the Government adopted the Decree Nr. 634 approving the EMP template and the set of indicators. This became an important step for taking over the responsibility for the independent production of the Migration Profile at the national level. Also a national institution was designated with the mandate for the independent production of future editions of the Profile – the Bureau for Migration and Asylum (BMA) of the Ministry of Interior. The work on the first edition of the Extended Migration Profile report was finalized in the fourth quarter of 2012, in close coordination with and under the supervision of an inter-ministerial Technical Working Group (TWG), comprised of a wide array of public institutions. The TWG convened on 24 October 2012 to discuss the final draft of the report, which will be published in early 2013. To ensure the continuity of the TWG, and to further enhance the capacity of national authorities responsible for collecting data and producing future EMP editions, a three-year roadmap was drafted, outlining future actions. The draft roadmap provides a series of consecutive actions required to produce the report, and further improve the process and quality of data related to the international migration.
• The up-coming EC funded project "Making Migration in Moldova Work for Development", due to start in early 2013, provides for further capacity building activities in Moldova with the focus on generating better evidence for the Moldovan migration policy making for human capital maximisation. The overall respective objectives and activities include:
- Strengthening Moldova's capacities to monitor migration and manage it proactively with evidence-based policies at the central and systemic levels by: embedding a migration expert with skills on statistics generation and analysis to the BMA - the institution responsible for the state migration information system, and the development on its basis of regular migration analyses with policy implications; transferring data collection expertise and knowledge on international standards among all institutions taking part in migration data production and use.
- Further developing Moldova's ability to maximise human capital outcomes from migration and enhancing its cooperation with relevant EU MS institutions through: the organization of trainings for 40 officials from data user and producer institutions and of a study trip to Germany for 6 officials. The result will be increased knowledge about effective inter-agency coordination on producing migration evidence, specifically on capturing information on how migration affects development and human capital.
• These actions will feed into the three-year roadmap.
Harmonized data collection as a sound basis for policy-making (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan)
• This pilot project implemented by OSCE and IOM aims at establishing a harmonized data collection process in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan through the development of a common draft template for harmonized migration data collection which will come as a result of assessing the availability of migration data and existing gaps for data collection in these countries.
• The overall objective of the present project is to build institutional capacity among government officials and representatives of national and regional statistical bodies in the five EurAsEC countries for establishing a harmonized migration data collection process through developing common templates for harmonized migration data collection (statistical indicators) which will foster data collection and sharing in the regional.
• The specific objectives of the project proposal are:
- To assess the availability of aggregated migration data in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia and Tajikistan and their capacity for data collection with existing mechanisms;
- To detect current gaps for establishing a harmonized data collection process in these countries and develop a common draft template for harmonized migration data collection;
- To provide the target groups in the region with information on the current data availability and existing gaps in the five countries, as well as international and regional legal frameworks for the collection of data and international cooperation at the international, regional and bilateral level.
Ongoing and forthcoming Activities:
• Assessment trips to Tajikistan, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, completed, national reports finalized;
• National and regional workshop on migration data in Russia in spring 2013;
• OSCE/IOM Regional Conference: Promotion of the Handbook on migration data collection (including the synthesis report and draft data collection template) through the Conference, 2013.
An assessment of the exploitation of children and students during the 2011 cotton harvest in Tajikistan
• Combating human trafficking is a key priority for the International Organization for Migration (IOM). Trafficking in persons (TIP) primarily involves exploitation, and as such, the use of child labour during the cotton harvest falls within the scope of IOM activities. As an intergovernmental body, IOM in collaboration with the Government of Tajikistan (GOT) has adopted effective measures to monitor the use of child labour during the cotton harvest.
• Such measures have included assisting the GOT in developing and implementing the National Action Plan (NAP) on Combating Human Trafficking in the Republic of Tajikistan for 2011-2013 and conducting an annual monitoring and awareness campaign during the 2010 and 2011 cotton harvests.
• The aim of the 2011 survey was to produce a situational overview rather than collect economic and geographic data, and therefore, the survey was developed with a qualitative approach rather than quantitative approach.
• The project concentrated on exploring: a) recruitment techniques, b) exploitation tactics, c) forced labour, and d) large scale mobilization of students. The negative consequences related to participation in the harvest, such as health deterioration and effects to educational development, were not explored as it was covered thoroughly in a previous year's study. The 2011 survey consisted of face-to-face interviews conducted during independent NGOs and IOM/Government joint monitoring field visits targeting a) dekhkan farm owners/brigade leaders and b) child field workers observed working in the cotton fields. In total, 500 farms were visited and 1151 interviews were carried out in 25 cotton-producing districts throughout Tajikistan.
Ongoing and forthcoming Activities:
• IOM Tajikistan received funding for conducting the monitoring in 2012. The 2012 project will end in March 2013 and afterwards an assessment report will be also published in 2013.
Identification and assistance for trafficking victims for the period October 2009 - September 2010 in Albania
• IOM Tirana supported the Albanian National Coalition of Anti trafficking shelters to publish their first report on the contribution to the identification and assistance for trafficking victims for the period October 2009 - September 2010 which includes statistics.
Ongoing and forthcoming activities:
• The report will be tentatively published in the first quarter of 2013.
Screening of deportees at the border between Georgia and Turkey 2012
• In the framework of an US funded project, IOM Georgia conducted the screening in 2012. This activity has been a follow-up to a previous screening activity implemented from April to August 2010, also in Sarpi and with INL support. This report will regularly draw parallels with the results of the screening process in 2010 and highlights if there are any significant changes in migration trends.
• This screening process was conducted at the Sarpi crossing point between Georgia and Turkey on the Black Sea coast by two interviewers, hired by IOM to interview all deportees who were referred to them by the Georgian Patrol Police. This screening process was conducted over a period of six months, starting on 5 April and lasting until 27 September 2012.
• During the six months that the screening interviews were conducted, a total of 837 persons were interviewed.
• The purposes of this screening were twofold:
- To identify the incidence of trafficking in persons affecting migrants, who were deported from Turkey and other countries, and to generate information about the circumstances of deportations;
- To identify possible victims of trafficking in persons among the screened deportees and refer them to specialized law enforcement bodies or victim assistance services.
Ongoing and forthcoming activities:
• IOM Georgia is currently finalizing the report which will be limited distribution.
8) Migration survey and enhanced data collection in Armenia
• With funding from the European Commission's Thematic programme of cooperation with third countries in the areas of migration and asylum and the IOM Development Fund, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and International Center for Human Development co-implement "Strengthening Evidence-Based Management of Labour Migration in Armenia" Project. The Project's overall objective is enhancing management of the labour migration flows from Armenia to EU countries. The Project's specific objectives include, inter alia, strengthening national capacities in migration data collection, analysis and policy formulation. In this regard, the Project aims at (i) Enhancing effectiveness of the migration management information system in Armenia by advocating for legislation, definitions, classifications and methodologies in line with the EU acquis in this area; (ii) Improving mechanisms and procedures for collection of information by promoting policy dialogue and interagency cooperation, building capacities of agencies involved in regulation and management of circular migration in Armenia and promoting partnerships among information commissioners in Armenia and relevant EU countries; (iii) Promoting standards of personal data protection by ensuring that the data collection mechanisms incorporate provisions of the national legislation and EU standards; and (iv) Strengthening capacities of the State Migration Service in preparation of annual reports exposing trends, particularly, in circular migration, as well as the capacities of the Ministry of Territorial Administration in using the analysis of the data on migration in policy analysis and formulation.
• In particular IOM supports the Armenian National Statistics Service (ArmStat) to develop terms of reference, methodology and questionnaire for a nationally representative migration survey and conduct the first such survey. The survey in Armenia aims, among other things, to assess the prevalence of migration in Armenia, including the scope of "non-return migration" (e.g. number of households and persons who have left the country without prospects of coming back) and youth migration; to identify main categories of migrants and describe their main characteristics and reveal the dynamics of the migration patterns; to assess impact of migration on migrants and households (positive vs. negative, health, financial well-being, career well-being, social well-being; to describe remittance patterns and overall financial behaviour of migrants and households (saving behaviour, consumption, potential to engage in entrepreneurship, level of financial skills and knowledge.
• The survey results can be used for preparing Armenia's migration policy, negotiating Bilateral labour agreements, and providing better services to migrants and returnees by the Migration Resource Centers and Private employment agencies, while the Armenian State Migration Service will use the survey to produce its analytical reports.
• IOM has built the capacities of the relevant stakeholder bodies in Migration Data Management; Migration data collecting, sharing and analysis; and Migration Research. Consultations were organized with the Armenian Government on migration data part of the draft National Plan of Action for State Regulation of Migration in Armenia; as well as Consultations were organized with the Armenian Government on the development of a sustainable methodology for regular migration data collection in Armenia. Since methods of collection of migration data should comply with human rights and fundamental freedoms, and in particular the right to privacy, with regard to automatic processing of personal data relating to the individual, the Government officials will be sensitized about the protection of personal data in migration data processing, and in particular the "Convention for the Protection of Individuals with regard to Automatic Processing of Personal Data" of 1981, which is the main binding international legal instrument with a worldwide scope of application in this field, open to any country, including countries which are not members of the Council of Europe.
• Currently within the framework of the IOM Development Fund Project entitled "Technical Assistance to the Armenian Government to Initiate Labour Migration Arrangements," IOM Armenia provides technical advice to the Armenian State Migration Service in implementation of 2012-2016 Action Plan for Implementation of the Concept for the Policy of State Regulation of Migration in the Republic of Armenia, namely the NPA's Activity 4.2 "Development and implementation of actions directed at inclusion of information systems of all migration bodies into a single system, and within that system – defining mechanisms for information exchange". This in particular pre-supposes defining competences of relevant state bodies responsible for coordination of migration data repositories' management process and defining competences of state bodies eligible for use of certain data; developing procedures for keeping, interagency repositories on the field of migration, as well as making use, exchanging information thereof; development of methodology for data collection, analysis and exchange for the data systems of migration sphere.
New Migration Profile in Kyrgyzstan
• Kyrgyzstan has long been struggling with the issue of obtaining accurate and reliable, and gender-mainstreamed migration data. Often migration related documents and strategic policy documents have relied on outdated or incomplete statistics. Within the framework of the Central Asian Regional Migration Programme (CARMP) funded by the UK Government and implemented by IOM, in close cooperation with UN Women and the World Bank, IOM has initiated the development of a Migration Profile template for Kyrgyzstan based on the Migration Profile standard proposed by IOM worldwide. These standards have been customized to Kyrgyzstan's needs and the existing data collection and sharing realities in the country. Once developed and published, the Migration Profile will be the first comprehensive document in Kyrgyzstan reflecting accurate, reliable, and gender-mainstreamed migration data and analysis for policy and decision makers, migration practitioners, academics and researchers.
• Assisting the Government of the Kyrgyz Republic in developing the migration policy based on data and analysis provided in the Migration Profile:
- To provide the relevant governmental agencies involved in regulating migration processes with reliable and systematically collected migration data;
- To assist the Kyrgyz Government in utilizing the process of developing the Migration Profile as an inter-agency mechanism for gathering, collecting and sharing gender-mainstreamed migration data;
- To introduce Migration Profile as a means for developing and improving migration policy.
Ongoing and forthcoming activities:
• The development of the Migration Profile in Kyrgyzstan was launched in 2010 with review and analysis of the existing infrastructure for collecting and sharing migration data. A group of local experts, along with international experts and an IOM expert on migration data, reviewed the migration legislation of the country, conducted surveys among experts and specialists of relevant agencies, carried out a series of expert meetings, interagency discussions and training sessions to develop a document containing as many as 17 main data types that exist within the several governmental agencies involved in regulating migration processes.
• Based on the above mentioned work, a group of local experts are currently working on collecting data from various agencies reflecting the flows and trends from 2007 until 2011. Another training session on Migration Profile was conducted in December 2012 by an IOM in-house expert among the representatives of various governmental agencies dealing with migration data. As a result of the training session many confirmed the need in receiving training sessions particularly focusing on data analysis, modern techniques and methodologies used in analyzing the migration data.
• In the future IOM aims to carry out the following activities:
- Once completed and published, the Migration Profile will be widely presented among relevant governmental agencies, experts, migration practitioners, academics and researchers;
- Kyrgyz Government will be encouraged to use the data provided in the Migration Profile for developing and improving migration policy, in amending legislation, etc;
- IOM will continue promoting the Migration Profile further and institutionalizing the document.
• All of these actions will lead to using Migration Profile in the future as an efficient mechanism for inter-agency coordination in regulating migration processes.
Research on sizing return migration in Albania and identifying reintegration needs to advice policy formulation in this area
Description and aim of the research:
• Because of the strong impact the world financial crisis produced on many countries, such as Greece and Italy, which had been prime destination countries for migrants from Albania, return migration from these countries has significantly increased in the last two years. Through IOM funding, IOM Tirana and the National Institute of Statistics, with the support of the Ministry of Labour, Social Affairs and Equal Opportunities will be conducting a national research to better size return migration, to build an accurate profile of returning migrants and to guide policy makers on how to tailor reintegration support. This will be the first research of this type in Albania and the methodology will be based on the results of the latest CENSUS in Albania (2011) and the data made available from Migration Counters throughout the country. The findings of the research will serve as a very good baseline for interventions in the area of return, reintegration and local development in Albania.
Ongoing and forthcoming Activities:
• The research methodology is under process of design by INSTAT with the support of IOM Tirana and it will be finalized in the first half of February 2013. The research results are envisioned to be presented in a national workshop in May 2013.

im not sure if im allowed to put this here since its not for a clonearmor but a mando beskar. however since the mando im making is heavy and more related to clone armor than traditional mandalorian, i figured i should someone with experience in that area.
the problem i have is with the codpieve/butplate. im making both as a single piece, joined by a ring or belt, from scratch. what im really wondering is how to make all the curves in the cod piece and but plate. any tips hints or ideas would help

1... Take her for a walk on your acre and show her the bees that are already there.2... Take her for a walk in a field near a known hive. Show her there are no more bees there than at home.3... Then tell her if she won't study the situation to come to a reasonable conclusion, then you are getting them anyway, as she's being unreasonable.My wife and I try to understand each others' side. If one won't agree to look at both sides, the other does what I/she wants. Not being reasonable looses the debate at my house, from either side.PS. First marriage for both of us, 42 years and counting.
listen to iddeeyou both have to come to a compromise. it sounds like she might not be willing to do that given what she knows about bees. so continue educating her and others about bees and in due time she should BEE on board ;) also, assure her that you'll epi shots on site and you all can discuss in depth to her son about bees and how to administer epi shots for him. but in theory, he shouldn't have to worry as long as he's not messing with the hive. good luck!!!
Just go ahead and bring the bees and put them on your acre property! It sounds that diplomacy failed and when that happens try to achieve your objective by other means: Simply say: They are here...! now let's negotiate the entrance reducer.Whenever my wife stubbornly and senselessly object I just go ahead and do it anyway! After a few timesshe got the message and learned to negotiate and compromise in an effort to avert the catastrophe. It works for me!
Simply say: They are here...! now let's negotiate the entrance reducer.

African Studies and Government
I'm originally from Togo, however, for the last ten years I have been living in western New York. I became interested in the African Studies-Government combined major because of my interest in African politics. However, the passion and enthusiasm of the African Studies Advisory Board faculty both inside and outside of the classroom was what ultimately made me decide to be major in the African Studies-Government.

Phoenix Second Half Battle Falls Short Against Wright State
By: Jill Wunrow (@JillWunrow)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - After trailing 2-0 with less than eight minutes remaining in the game, the Green Bay (2-7-1, 0-2-0 HL) men's soccer team battled back before falling 2-1 against Wright State (3-6-1, 1-0-1 HL) Saturday, Sept. 29 at Aldo Santaga Stadium.
Wright State's first goal came with 58 seconds remaining in the first half when Brett Elder found Derek Zuniga on the right side of the box for the 1-0 lead at the break.
Green Bay had its closest look at the goal in the first half with 2:25 remaining when Ahmad Bah (Brooklyn Park, Minn.) took a shot from the top of the box but was high over the goal.
The Raiders outshot the Phoenix 5-2 in the first half of play while Green Bay goalkeeper Ryan Wehking (St. Louis, Mo.) made two saves.
During halftime of the game, all Green Bay men's and women's soccer alumni present were recognized, including former Horizon League Players of the Year JC Banks (2009) and Tony Walls (2011).
Green Bay's intensity picked up in the second half and in the 55th minute, Green Bay's Alonso Flores found Whitney Browne (Brooklyn Park, Minn.) off a free kick in the box. Surrounded by defenders, Browne took the shot but just missed on the fight side.
In the 72nd minute, Senior Alonso Flores (Chicago, Ill.) took a shot through the Wright State defender but slightly missed to the left of the goal.
Three minutes later, Zuniga found Elder on top of the box for the 2-0 advantage.
The remaining 15 minutes of the game Green Bay controlled the ball, outshooting Wright State 3-0. In the 83rd minute Bah found Flores on the doorstep of the box. After a battle with the Raiders' goalkeeper, Flores was able to score the lone goal for the Phoenix.
Green Bay had a chance to equalize the game with 1:35 on the clock when Browne took the free kick but landed the ball inches over the cross bar.
The Phoenix outshot Wright State 12-8 in the game while the Raiders won the corner kick battle 4-3. Bah and Flores led all players with four shots each while Sam Krenzien (Wauwatosa, Wis.) and Browne each added 2. Wehking finished the night with three saves for the Phoenix, including a diving save in the 73rd minute.
NEXT ON THE SCHEDULE... Green Bay will have three days rest before it hosts in-state Horizon League rival Milwaukee (4-4-0) Wednesday, Oct. 3 in a battle for the Chancellor's Cup at 7 p.m. at Aldo Santaga Stadium.

Yea mate, you are certainly not wrong - The smoke black was much harder to find than I thought it would be, but in the end, I was able to find a couple on ebay. The ones I got I think are actually perfect for ROTJ - seems just that right shade, and is about 3mm thick. There is some debate still with what colour was used on ESB in the films - I'm still of the belief that it is green shade 3 - which is a fair bit lighter than the green shade 5. It was definately a green shade 3 in the more recent AOSW exhibit, but is hard to tell in the pics with the grainy lighting and lesser photographs of the movie stills. But my ROTJ smoke black is easily as dark as this, and looks very in line with the exhibit reference pics..
I am glad you mentioned the upper cheek colour - that was the one colour that I thought may have been a touch off. Do be careful going too blue though - I have a big talk about this in my ROTJ thread, and I still feel alot of the blue comes out from the camera flash, and they are actually a dark green/blue with more emphasis actually to the green value. You can bring the blue out in green as blue is one of the two colours that make up green, but you cant bring the green out in blue as blue is a primary colour. But the cheeks definately appear green under some lights, which mean they must have this green value.. hope that makes sense, just something to think about brother..
All up though, I stick by my initial statement of outstanding work! Peace

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Reading along and it did sound like fuel pump related.
|71 c-10
|ya'll know this thread is two years old??
|Phew, sounds like a lot of intense emotions you went through trying to find that relatively small problem that caused one mother of a headache. Very happy you got that fixed . Have fun burnin out leaving imports in the dust.
I'd bonfire the motor and get a chevy sb
SERIOUSLY, glad you fixed it!
|We love happy endings.
Okay!! I got it fixed!! Mr. Windsor you were right! It was the fuel pump. I had a Holley performance pump on there that was approx. 2 years old, well it had its days. I wish I hadn't gone straight to carb and ignition as a cause of my problems because of all that money I spent but hey, I got almost a grand in cool parts. Speed Demon carb, MSD ignition, XRP lines and hoses, and a nice new pump. I went over to O'Reiley's (?sp?) and bought a carter replacement for $30 and put that sucker in. While I was trying to install the new pump, I found out that someone had previously stripped out one of the bolt holes and put a helicoil in it. That is a spiral thing that is screwed into a reamed out hole and has the proper threads on the inside. It must have begun to slip out because that is where the oil was probably coming from (the old fuel pump was covered in old engine oil. It wasn't must oil and I didn't have a drip on the ground, but it was spraying oil all along the bottom of my engine- Flexlite Fan + Oil= Oil all over. I took the Holley pump apart and could not see any obvious signs of a puncture/leak in the diaphram except for the oil that was in the lower half of the pump. Oil should only be in the upper half where the lever is! I was getting low pressure both in my fuel and oil system due to the leak and that must have been where I was losing my oil. It must have been throwing the mixture way off. So Mr. Windsor was exactly right and all I needed was to change that relatively cheap part.
I bought the cheap one because I plan on putting an Aeromotive Electric fuel pump, Meziere electric water pump, electric fans, and a nice Powermaster 140 Amp alternator to power all that and the impressive stereo I am putting in it- oh, and a Auto-Rod Control membrane switch panel mounted to the eight point roll bar. I think a hidden switch for the fuel pump would be a good thieft deterance device too! Damn it felt nice to drive that car again today. Going to have a hard letting someone install a radio in it because that means there will be a few days I will be without it. I have been driving my retired mother's car around to my job and there is nothing like a muscle car to excite you over a '92 Ford T-Bird.
|I think you should go back to torching the thing.
|Mr. Windsor
The oil consumption you mentioned makes me wonder if the diaphram in your fuel pump might not have a hole in it. That could affect the efficiency of the pump, and cause you to lose oil as well.
Just a thought.
|Super Streeter
|Here is something to check.Look for rust sludge in the carb or fuel filter.A rusty gas tank will cause this problem.When the engine is off the scale settles off of the pickup sock,but after startup it will clog the sock in short order.Most carbs require a little choke adjustment when the weather changes,but that only effects cold start drivabilty.Another thing to watch is fuel blends.winter fuel blends are somewhat different then summer blends and most gas companies assume that all cars are fuel injected these days and that they will automatically compensate for the change in fuel weight,but a carb wont do this.If the problem isnt rust in the tank,I would try different fuel.I know that winter blend pump gas makes my fuel pressure go thru the roof.If I set up engine up on race gas and set the fuel pressure to 9 psi the car runs fine and a tad lean.If I blend in summer blend pump gas the car will run fatter and have about 2 psi more fuel pressure.I now have straight sunoco 94 winter blend in the tank since I wanted to improve cold starting of my race engine over the winter no racing months{I drive it on the street a bit rather then winterize the engine}.With the sunoco 94 I cant get the fuel pressure guage to go below 15 psi and I had to turn the pressure down just to keep the carb from flooding.I have never heard of winter blend reducing fuel pressure,but my pressure is regualted by a regualtor,not pump flow,so it is posible that a low pressure pump might have the opposite problem of my setup.Good luck,and dont do anything stupid.
Not to be sarcastic but is my name has not already given you a clue, it is a 69 mustang. Yes a Ford, and it a has a 351W bored .030 over. And about the lecture on how much money I am going to spend because I don't feel like doing it myself: I have only had the car into a garage for tuning and diagnostic services. I have to my best ability tried to figure out what it was. Before I took the car in each time, I thoroughly examined all possibilities until there was nothing else I could do with my skill. If I did pull the valve covers off to check the cam, I wouldn't know what to look for because I haven't ever experienced this situation. I changed the fuel pump, filters, fuel lines, carburetor, distributor, plugs, wires, and everything else that has gone on there. I even tuned it to an exent. I only took it in because no matter how much I messed with it, I couldn't better the situation. If I was too lazy to do any work on the car and only take it in "when it sounds funny," Then I wouldn't spend some evenings working on it from 6pm to 2am. Yeah I have worked on it for 8 hours several times. So I am not spending money uselessly because I don't want to do any work; I do that because I wasn't able to make a difference by what I was doing and I don't feel that my skill can be trusted as well as a professional mechanic.
In regard to the three different garages, I have used them all at the same time. I took it first to the guy that built the engine and when he didn't know what to do/couldn't fix it/didn't feel like working on it anymore, I took it to the guy who usually works on my business vehicles. When he couldn't do it, I took it to another race shop. Each time I told them what had been done and they checked the previous and tried something else. So yeah maybe I should have stayed with the first guy but when he shrugged off my problem as "because of the way I drive" even though he doesn't know how well I have treated this car, I was pretty pissed. The reason I left the second guy was that he openly admitted that he dealt primarily with new computer controller cars but would do his best without guaranteed results, I took it to the last place. The last group of guys runs cirle track and drag racing. They have only had their hands on it once and have a really good attitude about it. They are the only garage that I have been to that doesn't mind the owner helping them out in the shop area.
I didn't mean Chevrelet, I meant Buick. I was trying to explian somthing to someone else and apparently got confused.
Anyway, I didnt want to be the only one who was wondering why you keep paying someone else to do the work. Who are you paying anyway? Someone worth paying should be able to narrow things down a bit and at least give you an idea of what happening. I'm really starting to think it's all related to fuel pressure. Something gotta be wrong in the pump or fuel lines.
|one off
don't want to chew you out but you're going to spend an awfull lot of money on this problem unless you get a little more sensible about what your doing. seems to me your having all this work done. if you are go some place else because they don't know what there doing.if you don't have the basic tools like a compression tester buy one and do the work yourself,it's cheeper than having it done.that oil problem could be serious,check the pcv.there are so many things that can cause your problem you and without the details it's hard to -dognose* best way for you is to eliminate the major possibiliies and work your way down to the real problem. good luck
It may be something as simple as sediment in the tank blocking the pickup filter after running awhile. Where is your inline filter?

Ever check the fuel pump eccentric on the front of the cam?. They can come loose and spin causing erratic fuel delivery. (assuming this is a Chevrelet). Might be the heat that loosens the bolt enough to spin(sometimes).

Not on a chevy it is driven by the cam with a push rod!!

If the goldfish is intelligent enough to create such an advanced suit then he should have been intelligent enough to create a safer container for himself rather than an open-topped, glass bowl.
Highly depressed Gorgon Love didn't make it. =/
Maybe the next Double Take or an Editor's choice or something. Hopefully.

I always thought Klaus would somehow get revenge.

what is it with this derby and guns not firing the right way? Otherwise The cats in the background are STILL EXPLODING from whenever he shot at them
Am I the only one who sees kitty-hope in the form of an open fish bowl?
Does this come in pet sweater sizes for my cat?
I think the goldfish should have put a "#9" on those rockets he's firing. I would find the symbolism most satisfying.

There were a bunch of others in the derby that I would have liked to see print as well, but I am happy to see this one here tonight!
edit: I reread my post and it looks like I'm shouting. I'm really just happy, and I not sure how to get that across without !! everything.
This is why we keep our kitties inside at night.

Aw man, Peter Rabbit was 3 votes away from printing. That shirt was just brilliant too.. *sigh*
But still, mecha-goldfish is better than a ramy/seki hat trick.
You don't understand! This is obviously Catarmageddon! You are only seeing one goldfish mech warrior, while his buddies are creating the explosions in the background. Even goldfish need to work together to plan such large-scale revenge!!!
On a side note, thank goodness for small favors. This was one of the best entries this week. Sadly, 2 other deserving entries never saw the light of day because of Woot's recent "problems."
Yeah, sorta disappointed about not getting Peter. I too hope that it gets picked up as a second chance or editor's choice.

At least they got an arm that's close in Harang and a guy who throws rockets in Valentine.
Would have preferred Joe Blanton (younger, but a step up in quality), but this is an all right deal. Harang's one of those guys that doesn't throw as hard as you might think for a big guy.
But there's the chance the Reds just got themselves a pitcher or two for a guy they claimed off the discard pile and that's not a bad thing.

Dear Fellow Fishermen, Wednesday, April 23, 2008
Our CCA members met in Montgomery yesterday before the House Committee that held a public hearing on HB 566 that will ban the commercial use of gill nets in Alabama. We are proud to report that because of your hard work, we were successful in getting the bill moved out of committee with favorable passage. Special thanks go to Edwin Lamberth, Manning McPhillips and Captain Dan Kolenich who testified in front of the House Agriculture and Forestry Committee.
Over the next week, it's going to be critical that you contact your state representative and ask that they vote in support of HB 566. You can find the name and a link to your representative's contact information here. The gill net ban will ensure that we protect Alabama's marine resources for our economy and for future generations. We expect the net ban to come before the full House as soon as next week, so please call your representative today.
CCA members presented strong scientific evidence yesterday that supports the ban of gill nets and the effect they have on our state's fish population. Economic impact information, scientific studies, media reports, letters from scientists and other information was shown to the committee. If you would like to see the materials presented in yesterday's House meeting, please click here.
The public hearing put us in a great position to move this important bill once it reaches the House floor, but we will only be successful by flooding our representatives with calls. Please let us know the responses you are receiving from your calls so that we can determine which areas we need to focus more of our efforts.
Coastal Conservation Association of Alabama

Hey guys,
I just wanted to through something of mine into this new Clone section.
I've been working on trying to make some templates for the Clone Trooper so people can make their own armor if they choose. I tried this out for my custom Mando and it worked really well. Halo costumers are getting great results too so I wanted to get clone armor out there.
It was modelled in 3D and is now gonna be unfolded using cardmodel software the same way I do all my templates. It's gonna be a long build I think to get it right but the way I've done it should make fibreglassing and smoothing out alot easier.
Anyway, here's some pics:
Unfolding all this will take some time so I'll update again when I have more. I hope to follow up with TCW clone armor and eventually RC armor too.

French-based Albhari is scheduled to be shipped to California next week and run in the $500,000 Hollywood Derby on Nov. 30, trainer Patrick Biancone said Thursday from Santa Anita after supplementing the 3-year-old gelding for $10,000.
"He's coming Monday," said Biancone of the horse purchased out of the Arqana Sale at Saint-Cloud Monday by Ed Gann of San Diego. "He just won a listed stake at Le Croise Laroche (Nov. 3 at 1 5/16 miles)."
Julien Leparoux has the call in the Grade I race at 1 ¼ miles on turf that is the co-feature with the $500,000 Matriarch on the concluding day of the three-day Turf Festival.
Biancone, who returned to training November 10 at Santa Anita following a one-year suspension, said he is regrouping slowly and had one other candidate for a stakes race here: Baroness Thatcher in the Bayakoa Handicap on Dec. 7.
Also supplemented to the Derby was Cowboy Cal, expected to be shipped west from New York Monday by trainer Todd Pletcher. Other stakes winners scheduled to ship west are Sailors Cap from New York Monday and Court Vision from Florida Tuesday.
They are expected to join Gio Ponti, who was shipped to Santa Anita on Nov. 4 by trainer Christophe Clement, and locally-based stakes winners Madeo, Muny and Dixie Chatter in the lineup.
Cocoa Beach, a graded stakes winner on three continents, worked four furlongs on turf in :46.20 breezing under exercise rider Robert Chapman Thursday for a return to grass in the $500,000 Matriarch on Nov. 30.
"Her first time on the turf in North America," said Henry Spiller, assistant to Godolphin Racing trainer Saeed bin Suroor. "She galloped out in 58 and two. I was very happy with the way she handled everything.
"The cones were out quite wide, so it was a very good move," added Spiller. "The rider said she felt as good on grass as she did on synthetic or dirt."
Cocoa Beach, a 4-year-old Chilean-bred filly, has not raced on turf since breaking her maiden in her first start in Chile in 2007. She has gone on to win eight of 11 starts, winning major stakes on dirt in Chile, Dubai and New York to establish herself as one of the leading distaffers in the world. She finished second to unbeaten Zenyatta in the Breeders' Cup Ladies Classic at Santa Anita in her last start Oct. 24.
Ramon Dominguez has the call back in the Grade I Matriarch for fillies and mares at one mile on turf.
Magical Fantasy, supplemented to the race for $10,000, worked six furlongs on turf in a bullet 1:13.20 under jockey Alex Solis to the satisfaction of trainer Paddy Gallagher. Criminologist, a graded stakes winner based in New York with trainer Shug McGaughey, was also supplemented.
Other probable starters include defending champion Precious Kitten, Visit, Black Mamba, Roshani, Rosinka, Passified and I Can See.
Godolphin Racing's Formal Decree, winner of the Knickerbocker Handicap at Belmont Park in his last start Oct. 25, worked five furlongs in 59.60 on Cushion Track Thursday for the $400,000 Citation Handicap on Nov. 28. The Grade I test is at 1 1/16 miles on turf.
"This is his second work since he shipped in a couple weeks ago," said Henry Spiller, assistant to trainer Saeed bin Suroor. "I'm happy the way he has settled here and trained on the synthetic track.
"He's lightly raced and is coming good now," said Spiller, a 23-year-old native of Ireland who has worked with Godophin for five years. The German-bred 5-year-old gelding has won his last two starts in New York under veteran Jean-Luc Samyn, who will come in to ride.
"He went to Dubai two winters ago and won three in a row at the carnival," said Spiller. "The following summer (2007), he fell in a race in France, and it may have affected his confidence. He came to the U.S. last fall, got a break, and we picked him up this spring."
Lord Admiral, a 7-year-old veteran with experience in Europe, Dubai and the United States, worked six furlongs on turf in 1:15.20 under Alex Solis, who has the Citation call for Irish trainer Charles O'Brien.
Trainer John Sadler supplemented Becrux to the race for $8,000 to join Whatsthescript. Other probable starters include Hyperbaric, Rebellion Galantas, Shakis and Ferneley.
Congor Bay, unbeaten in two starts at Woodbine, galloped on Cushion Track here Thursday after arriving in Barn 50 Wednesday for the $100,000-added Hollywood Prevue Stakes for 2-year-olds Sunday.
"He seemed to handle it pretty good," said Ricky Griffith, assistant to trainer Mark Casse. "He was a little fired up this morning but he's kind of dropped his head and relaxed a little."
Congor Bay was accompanied by exercise rider Wayne Brown on a trip that originated with a van ride from Toronto to Keeneland and a flight from Kentucky to Ontario Airport, from where he was vanned here.
"The competition is hard to say, but he should handle seven furlongs," said Griffith of the Grade III Prevue. "He's flawless thus far."
Congor Bay was also accompanied by Insurgence, a candidate for the $100,000-added Generous Stakes for 2-year-olds on turf Nov. 29.
Winchester, originally a candidate for the Hollywood Derby, is now aiming for the $250,000 Grade I Hollywood Turf Cup December 6. "I talked to the boss yesterday, and he thought a mile and a half might suit him better," said Tom Daly, assistant to Irish-based trainer Dermot Weld.
Winchester, winner of the Secretariat Stakes and seventh in the Breeders' Cup Turf, worked six furlongs in 1:13.40 on turf here under Daly in company with Towzee. "He's improving with each work," said Daly after the colt's third drill here.
Unbeaten Zenyatta will be paraded on the track on November 30 during a program that includes the Hollywood Derby and Matriarch, $500,000 highlights of the Turf Festival.
The 4-year-old filly, stabled here year-round with trainer John Shirreffs, climaxed an unbeaten year and stretched her winning streak to nine with a victory in the Breeders' Cup Ladies Classic at Santa Anita on Oct. 24.
Four of her victories have been here, including the Milady and Vanity handicaps last summer. Zenyatta, a Horse of the Year candidate, is owned by Jerry and Ann Moss.
FINISH LINES — Pretty Katherine and Kinesiology worked on turf for the $100,000-added Miesque Stakes for 2-year-old fillies Nov. 28, Pretty Katherine five furlongs in 1:02.80 and Kinesiology six furlongs in 1:15.60...National riding leader Garrett Gomez will be in New York on Nov. 29 to ride Arson Squad in the Cigar Mile at Aqueduct, according to agent Ron Anderson.

'On paper and for salary-cap reasons, MacArthur was sent to the Amerks when the NHL All-Star break began. Patrick Kaleta also returned. Unlike Kaleta, who played in Friday night's 4-3 shootout loss to Lake Erie, MacArthur wasn't even in town. The Sabres can't risk MacArthur getting hurt in either American Hockey League game this weekend, so they let him have the time off. He's rejoining the Sabres on Monday for practice and will play at Tampa on Tuesday.'

"These gift tags are beautiful and arrive exactly as pictured. The design is so delicate; perfect for a baby shower which is what I used them for. The one caveat is that the white lettering is a bit difficult to see as the tag is a very pale pink. If I had to do it over again, I would use black, or a darker color, rather than the standard white. It is still very beautiful hence the five stars."
"We were looking for a sticker photo for my daughter's sorority recruitment cards. It needed to be small. The size was perfect, but I would've liked to have seen a few more designs. In particularly more "grown up" designs. The ones you currently offer have a baby/child theme."
"It was fun to put my both kids names on this sticker, but I still need to make one of this stickers with only one child name on it it, when they are not going together to B-days"
"We are using these stickers to put on blue take out boxes for the candy buffet at my daughter's Baby Shower. Our stickers read "sweet treats". They match the invitations we ordered from you. I'm very happy with the quality of all of the items we ordered. Thank you!"
"These are adorable! I stick them on everything my son takes to school. It is so easy to label all his belongings and feel confident that they will all return home:)"

The Chevron pipeline that leaked diesel fuel near the Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge has passed a stress test and has been cleared to resume operations, but at limited capacity.
Cleanup crews continued this week to mop up traces of diesel from the March 18 spill, which dumped about 21,000 gallons of fuel at Willard Bay State Park. A 6-foot section had failed on the 8-inch pipeline that transports fuel from the five Salt Lake area refineries to Idaho and Spokane, Wash. Once the leak was detected, the pipeline was shut down for repairs.
The diesel leaked into the soil and drainage ditches and eventually found its way into the reservoir that draws picnickers and campers to the popular recreation spot.
The biggest casualties have been six sickened beavers whose lodges helped slow the diesel's flow, plus a few dead fish and birds. Water in the reservoir has been mildly contaminated, but not to a level that has water officials concerned.
Chevron resumed operating the line at about 80 percent of its normal pressure in early April after receiving permission from the federal oversight agency. In order to pump the fuel at 100 percent of normal pressure, a federal oversight agency mandated that the pipeline pass a stress test.
Fuel operations were halted this week for the test, and petroleum was cleared from the pipe. On Monday, water was pumped in, the pressure modulated and the pipe sprung a leak when the pressure hit the maximum 2,606 pounds per square inch.
On Thursday, a second test was conducted. At about 11 a.m., the U.S. Transportation Department's Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration declared: "Spike test complete. No loss of pressure. Accepted test."
Agency spokesman Damon Hill noted the company had met the required safety terms.
"They repaired the part that failed [Monday] and they conducted another test," said Hill. "That test was successful."
But the company still is not permitted to pump fuel normally, only at 80 percent. The company would not comment on any details of future operations, such as when it might be cleared to run the pipeline at the normal pressure.
"The pipeline is being prepared to resume operations at a reduced capacity and is targeted to commence operating on Saturday, May 4, 2013," Chevron Pipe Line Co.'s Gareth Johnstone said in an emailed statement.
Walt Baker, director of the Utah Division of Water Quality, welcomed the news about the latest test."We are pleased to learn of the successful re-test of the pipeline," he said, "and that the integrity of the line appears to have been verified."
Meanwhile, as the cleanup continues, the North Marina of the Willard Bay State Park remains closed as its busy visitor season gets underway.

Glendale, Ariz. • Major League Baseball intends to expand the use of instant replay for the 2014 season, and will be studying which calls to review and how to do it over the course of this year.
Joe Torre, an MLB executive vice president, said Tuesday that league officials plan to visit Miami during the World Baseball Classic and various spring training sites to examine camera angles and other factors that will help them develop a plan.
Commissioner Bud Selig has said he wants to add video reviews for trapped balls and fair-or-foul calls.
Torre said the league is mainly "looking at is some of the obvious stuff you can see right away," but that it's a balancing act to make sure replay doesn't interrupt the flow of the game. Torre also shot down any notion that balls and strikes will be reviewed, joking that "you still have to have something to yell about."
Red Sox pitcher arrested for DUI
Jail records says Red Sox left-hander Drake Britton was arrested in Fort Myers, Fla., for driving under the influence.
The 23-year-old was arrested early Saturday morning. He was also charged with reckless driving and DUI with property damage. He posted bond later that day. His arrest report says Britton was speeding when a deputy tried to stop him for "numerous traffic violations." The report says Britton drove his car over a curb and knocked down a fence. He then drove over it before making a complete stop.

Peacock makes his pitch for Astros
No. 10 prospect bosters bid for spot on Opening Day roster

Astros 4, Yankees 4 (10 innings) Box »
Astros No. 10 prospect Brad Peacock solidified his case for the club's fourth starter role against the Yankees, allowing a run on two hits over five innings.
Acquired in February from the A's in the five-player trade involving shortstop Jed Lowrie, Peacock struck out one while walking two, lowering his spring ERA to 3.20. He was 12-9 with a 6.01 ERA for Triple-A Sacramento last season.

Twins 9, Orioles 5 Box »
Twins top prospect Miguel Sano knocked home a run in his second Major League Spring Training start on Tuesday, combining with fellow farmhand Aaron Hicks to help Minnesota earn its 15th win of the Spring.
Sano went 1-for-5 and gave the Twins a 5-3 lead in the fifth inning when he reached on an error by third baseman Manny Machado, allowing Justin Morneau to scramble home in the Twins' 9-5 victory. Sano, who made his big league Spring debut on March 21 with a pair of hits, came around to score on a grounder later in the frame.
The Twins scored two runs in the third against Orioles right-hander Kevin Gausman, Baltimore's first-round pick in last year's Draft. Hicks, the Twins' No. 6 prospect who went 3-for-5 with two RBIs and two runs scored, started the inning with an RBI triple to score Wilkin Ramirez before Brian Dozier brought Hicks home with a single to left.
"Some of the kids that you read all about, well, we read about them, too," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said of Sano after his Spring debut. "I know he's been working really, really hard [at third base]. I know Paul Molitor and him have been really getting after it and they're working on his approach and his stance on getting reads. Obviously, it's working out pretty good."

I think your egg concept is a marvelous and tender way to get to the heart of the matter! Inspiring lesson! I think my first graders will embrace a lesson like this on Tuesday!

I forgot about that egg lesson...I did that last year. I did do potatoes. I had my kiddos pick out their own potatoes (after they named them and examined them closely) We talked about differences on the outside make us special, but we are all the same on the inside. It was a lot of fun and I hope they got the message.ReplyDelete

Love the egg lesson and will definitely incorporate it into my MLK lesson next year. Does your school district allow you to post pictures of your students? I would love to have a blog next year, but we are not allowed to post pictures. Our parents even sign a waiver from taking pictures of other students at school functions!ReplyDelete
Thanks again!Replies
Shawna, My school allows it if the parents sign a waiver (which they all did). My kids this year have been in several news papers and on National T.V. so a few pics on here are definitely no big deal. :) I don't ever use their names when I post their pictures though.Delete
With the recent tradegy at Sandy Hook, our school now has a closed-door policy. I don't have a school blog, but this would be such a great way for the families to "see" what we're doing at school. Thanks for sharing. I will check into the waivers.Delete
This egg lesson is GREAT! I really like the simplicity of the lesson to approach a delicate discussion. Very perfect for first graders! Thanks for sharing :)ReplyDelete
First Grade Smiles
I did the egg activity and it was a total FLOP! I have chickens so I brought in a brown egg and asked to trade with someone who has store bought egg. Well, the white egg was bland and runny and mine was bright orangy yellow with a completely clear "white". The even used different colors to color what they saw - HA. So that ended up a lesson on farm fresh eggs and nutrition :) But, later I sent all of the blue eyed kids off the rug. I said I believe brown eyed kids were better and that's the way it is. We talked about it being fair and if color mattered and what to do about this bad new rule. I even had someone refuse -Rosa Parks would be proud. Your dream bubbles turned out great so cute and meaningful.ReplyDelete
I love this idea of using an egg to show that we are all the same inside. I will have to use this activity when we go back on Tuesday.ReplyDelete
Thanks for sharing your ideas!
We are spending next week reading and learning about Dr. King. I'm definitely going to have to do the egg experiment. Thanks for sharing!ReplyDelete
