The market for consumer goods in China is often depicted as some sort of holy grail for retailers, with its enormous population and ever-growing middle class. But sporting apparel giant Nike Inc. (NKE) serves as a word of caution. [Read more from Kapitall: Consumer Prices Rose But Shoppers Always Stop At The Drugstore] After three decades selling its wares to Chinese consumers, you'd expect Nike to enjoy strong growth among sales there. But yesterday Bloomberg reported the company expects Chinese sales to fall over the next two quarters, making that a streak of five quarters in a row. Besides losing customers to competitors such as Adidas AG (ADDYY:OTC), Nike has failed to shift a large portion of merchandise in China it had stockpiled in preparation for a boom in sales after the Beijing Olympics – one which never came to be. Nike is currently trading at $63.43, close to its 52-week high of $66.07. But the stock's performance this year has lagged many of its competitors. We decided to look for outperforming stocks – those with a performance over the last quarter above 20% – among a universe of companies producing and selling athletic footwear and clothing, and compare them to Nike.

Thanks, Jag. My mantra has always been 'New days bring new opportunities...'
And today, Beth seems to have cooled her jets just a tad. Got her a new, raw bone. She'd been two days without something to occupy her down time, which could also account for her attention getting behavior.
|Sounds like the 'honeymoon phase' is over! That's not a bad thing, though! I've taken in a few rescues (dogs and parrots) and when you start seeing an animal being not so well behaved in that circumstance, it is a sign that they're secure enough to 'let down their hair' so to speak. So I'd say you're on the right track!!

|That's great! You have found ways to play with her. She is a young dog and still in her adolscence which makes for up and down training days. Yes, a running start helps. My Sting was never a jumper - he will even go around a fallen log on the trail, my Aussie was the same way. My Aussie also went in the back seat. I have an Explorer and the back seat is his (I have a seat cover and also towels on the floor and the seat) - I do put the front seat back forward first. And he steps first on the floor and then up onto the seat. Thinking ahead to when your dog is older or if she should get really tired out from a walk, you may want to get one of those steps or a ramp if you want her to go in the cargo area. My concern would be the stress on her hips because other than just not knowing how to do it, if she needs that running start, and if your other dogs didn't - then I would consider back seat or ramp or step that attaches to the back end where a trailer hitch goes. I would also start her on Omega 3, if you haven't done so already. I gave my Sting that from 6 months on and also K9 Arthroflex which is also a joint supplement. It is better to start these early to prevent problems, rather than to wait until there are problems. She does sound like a lovely dog and she is lucky to have found a home with you.
Thanks, Mary Beth. Never looked at it that way. We did get a lot of play in, today. Ball, jumping (she LOVES jumping), walking, hide and seek.
We have a Grand Cherokee that she has struggled to jump into until today. After a close-up attempt, we turned around and trid a running start. She almost sailed into the rear seat.
She gets this look on her face when she does something new.
|Mary Beth
|A "backwards" training day as I read on another post. But in your case, congrats - she is settling in since you have only had her just less than a month. She is starting to relax and does not need to feel to have to be on her best behavior or you won't keep her. You may to ease up a bit, take a training break - go for easy walks, letting her sniff, play with her.
Testing the boundaries
It was a day where suddenly, she can't seem to recall a single thing I have taught her.
Cats=fast food
Other dogs=threat
Sit/Down/Stay=a suggestion
Leave It=forgeddabouddit
Today was a day where I found myself having to gruffly assert my position-and to remind her what HER place is.
Just...not a great day.

The theory behind comped guns is to have less muzzle flip. But, they work best in a high pressure round.
In the 1990s, I had a compensated 1911 - kewl gun actually. But, a comp doesn't really do much for a 45. When I shot it alongside a regular 1911 I had at the time, I really could not tell much difference. Neg side of the gun is that it is much louder - that comped 1911 I had was typically the loudest gun on the range, unless someone was shooting a 44. A comped gun is not a gun U would want to use in self defense, especially indoors. Permanent hearing damage for sure.
Also, in close quarter combat or a situation where the gun is close to your body, you could possibly get debris from the comp hitting U or your eyes.
I've had 2 comped guns in the past. They have a certain coolness factor. And, on a range gun, they are fine. As a defense gun, I can't recommend it.

Hi, Scumdog from New Zealand here - hope I can help you about the o'drive, I had one in my Mk2 Zephyr and it is the same principle as yours.
From memory if you pull the dash cable to put it in overdrive the o'drive will work once you are faster than a given speed, i.e. 35mph. To engage it you wind up to above that speed (with the dash cable pulled - it may be vice-versa in your case) and take yor foot off the gas pedal, the overdrive will now engage and give you long legs - some o'drives only work in 2nd and top gear.
When you want to pass a car on the freeway you mash the pedal to the floor for a split second and the o'drive drops out and you are into direct drive for acceleration. (the switch on the floor "kills" your ignition spark for a second taking the load off the motor enabling the solenoid to pull the 'box out of overdrive)- after you finished passing just take your foot off the gas and viola! you are back into o'drive!
The great thing I found with the o'drive was that you could leave it engaged 99% of the time and below about 10mph you could pull into low gear without using the clutch as the o'drive is fitted with a sprag (one-way) clutch, very handy when you have a non-synchro first gear.
The o'drive has a mechanical lock-out so it does not work in reverse or you would screw it up big-time. Hope this helps, Cheers, Scumdog
Overdrive transmission
I have a flathead jack 3/4 race 8aba flathead that I just finished building for my 1951 mercury custom. I have the origonal overdrive transmission in the car. The person I bought the car from had disconnected and abandoned all of the overdrive components, so the car was out of overdrive when ever I drove it. On the freeway it sounded like it was going to grenade on me. I have found all of the missing parts from Mr. Merc. I will be installing all of the parts soon. Problem is...Nobody can tell me how to engage, and disengage the overdrive. There is a kickdown switch under the gas pedal, a relay on the firewall, a pull handle under the dash, and a governor on the trans. When do I pull the handle, and when do I push it in. Is there a simpler way to do this?

What do y'all think? I say he totally had it coming, but I am sure some NFL team will be happy to overlook his mulitple transgressions and have him on their team.
Virginia Tech Kicks Starting Quarterback Vick Off Team
School's Decision Follows Star Junior's Unsportsmanlike Conduct in Gator Bowl
By HANK KURZ Jr., AP Sports
RICHMOND, Va. (Jan. 6) - Virginia Tech quarterback Marcus Vick was dismissed from the team Friday, the result of numerous legal transgressions and his unsportsmanlike conduct in the Gator Bowl.
Marcus Vick's intentional stomp on Louisville's Elvis Dumervil in the Gator Bowl was the final straw for Frank Beamer and Virginia Tech.
University president Charles Steger announced the dismissal on the same day that coach Frank Beamer met with Vick and his mother in their Hampton Roads home, the school said in a statement. Beamer informed them of the decision during the meeting.
Vick, the younger brother of Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick, was suspended from school in 2004 for several legal problems. The junior came under new and intense scrutiny this week after replays showed he stomped on the left calf of Louisville All-American defensive end Elvis Dumervil during the Jan. 2 bowl.
No penalty was called on the play and Vick claimed its was accidental. He further hurt his cause by claiming to have apologized to Dumervil, the NCAA sacks leader, but the Louisville player said no such apology was ever offered.
On Friday, it was revealed that Vick had been stopped for speeding and driving with a revoked or suspended license in Hampton on Dec. 17, Cpl. James West said. Vick's license had been taken away in August 2004 when he was cited for reckless driving and marijuana possession in New Kent County.
Steger suspended Vick from school at that time, and warned that any additional problems would effectively end his time as a member of the Hokies' football team.
"The university provided one last opportunity for Vick to become a citizen of the university and readmitted him in January 2005, with the proviso that any future problems would result in automatic dismissal from the team," Steger said Friday.
Beamer said in a statement that he was disappointed with the outcome. "We wanted what's best for this football team and Marcus," he said. "I certainly wish him the best."
School officials said in a statement that there would be no further comment until a news conference Saturday. Beamer, Steger and athletic director Jim Weaver, who said the stomping embarrassed the university, were all expected to attend.
A telephone message left on Vick's cell phone was not immediately returned Friday, and his mother, Brenda Boddie, has an unlisted phone number.
Vick said before the Hokies' 35-24 comeback victory in the Gator Bowl that he planned to return for his senior season. Now, his choices are to declare for the NFL Draft by the Jan. 15 deadline or transfer to a Division I-AA school so he can play next season.
The Virginian-Pilot of Norfolk reported on its Web site on Friday night that Vick would turn pro.
"It's not a big deal," Vick was quoted as telling the newspaper. "I'll just move on to the next level, baby."
Vick entered this season knowing he would face hostility from opposing fans, mostly stemming from his drug arrest and another for serving alcohol to underage girls during the 2003 school year.
He said he was ready for it, but reacted to chants of "rapist" and "child molester" at West Virginia on Oct. 1 by making an obscene gesture in the direction of the crowd. He met with Beamer following that incident and apologized to the team.
In the ACC championship game against Florida State, he drew an unsportsmanlike conduct flag for spiking the ball after a touchdown run with the Hokies trailing, and following the 27-22 loss, walked by reporters after the game without commenting, saying he didn't have to.
He finished that game 26-for-52 for 335 yards with one interception and a fumble near his goal line that teammate Duane Brown recovered. Vick threw one scoring pass and ran for two more touchdowns, but also was sacked six times for minus-35 yards.
On the field, he was often dazzling, but sometimes tried to do too much.
The Hokies started 8-0 and were No. 3 in the polls when they hosted Miami on Nov. 5. But Vick threw two interceptions and fumbled the ball away four times in a 27-7 loss.
This season, he was runner-up to Wake Forest's Chris Barclay as the conference's offensive player of the year, and was voted the first team quarterback on the all-conference team.
In 24 career games, the last 13 starts, Vick was 207-for-346 for 2,868 yards, 19 touchdowns and 15 interceptions. He also rushed 184 times for 492 yards and six TDs.

Hello there,
I have a few questions I would like to ask of all you TEFL veterans. As you can probably see I am a newbie here and would love it if I could get serious answers and no burns please. I have not started a TEFL course yet, I am still shopping around and checking out my options. I am a 22 year old, New Zealand citizen currently residing in Australia. I have been looking into the working holiday scheme and I think this will be a great way for me to find paid TEFL work abroad to supplement my savings, without the hassle of a work visa, I am currently looking into Japan, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Cambodia, Vietnam, Brazil, Peru, Argentina, and most of the European countries (mainly Schengen states) that have a working holiday scheme with New Zealand.
1) Is it possible to find work with a TEFL certificate, working holiday visa but no degree?
2) What is the best way to find TEFL jobs abroad?
3) Are internships worth the large upfront costs and small wages?
4) Are recruitment agencies worth using?
5) Will I be able to find work paying a liveable wage without a degree?
6) Which countries should I be focusing on and which ones should I forget about?
I understand I am asking for a lot of information, but any REAL advice you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards

Young and aspiring Judo martial artists were given the opportunity to show off their skills and compete against fellow sportsman at Crystal Palace National Sports Centre recently, following the launch of the London Youth Games.
The competition saw 27 different boroughs represented by participants known as judoku (young judo members) who all participated in a fun day of competition and coaching. The Games offer competitive opportunities for young sportsmen of varying abilities and experience and has been a real stepping stone in the careers of international and Olympic athletes in the past.
With an array of Arsenal supporting stars featuring at London 2012, Tian Sewell-Morgan from Hackney showed all the hallmarks of a future Olympian, beating off all 26 other boroughs in what was a really high standard of Judo. Having started Judo as part of her Satellite Club in Cardinal Pole School, Hackney, Tian has been training weekly and has progressed greatly in the programme.
Speaking about her win, Tian said "I'm really shy when it comes to things like this but I felt happy and proud of myself. The medal was heavier than it looked and I felt like I deserved because I had trained hard. My family, friends and classmates are really supportive of me when it comes to judo and my main aim is to go to the Olympics in Rio 2016. I also give great thanks to Gabor, Josef and Gio for pushing me and developing my skills, technique and strength in mind, soul and body - it sounds clichéd but it's true!"
Ross McKinley, Premier League 4 Sport Cordinator for Arsenal in the Community added: "We are really proud of Tian's achievements in the Youth Games. We have aided Hackney in their Youth Games teams in a number of sports, including Judo, Badminton, Hockey and Volleyball over the past few years and Tian's success shows how partnership working (through local authorities, community clubs and governing bodies) can really benefit our young people. Well done again Tian."
Coach Gabor Szanyi-Nagy also spoke of Tian's achievements: "As a coach we always want some players like Tian who is a really hard-working person and she always has maximum effort at every session. Before the London Youth Games, she came and trained with the senior class. She is a very strong player with great concentration. She is one of the players who is very strongly focused on what I say before her fights."
Since January 2010, Arsenal's Premier League 4 Sport Judo programme has been working with the London Judo Club, Capital London Judo Club, British Judo Association and Hackney Council in three boroughs (Islington, Camden and Hackney) to help players progress through the Judo belt system.
With no Premier League 4 Sport National Judo competition, the London Youth Games has seen the players face their biggest event as their progress throughout the programme is ultimately put to the test. It is hoped that Tian's achievement will inspire more young people to take up Judo in their local community.

Today's Hours: 10AM – 5PM
. . . [We] dream of cars that will float and fly, or run on energy from a laser beam, or travel close to the ground without wheels. Such research may border on the fantastic, but so did the idea of a carriage going about the country without a horse.
—The Ford Book of Styling, 1963
Norman Timbs (American, 1917-1993), designer
Attributed to Emil Diedt, fabricator
Courtesy of Gary and Diane Cerveny, Malibu, California
Photo by Peter Harholdt
Mechanical engineer Norman Timbs created the Timbs Special for his personal use. A visually arresting automobile that epitomized grace and speed, the car articulated the ideas of streamlining and wind resistance with its elongated, curvilinear forms and seemingly single-piece body. It had no doors and was composed of two hand-formed aluminum shapes. To create this form, Timbs started with drawings, followed by quarter-scale clay models, and then a full-scale body buck (wooden frame) over which the aluminum panels were shaped and then welded together.
This car graced the October 1949 cover of Motor Trend magazine, accompanied by a short article, "Home-Made Streamliner," a title that implied that anyone could make this car. The article included images, and referred to this stunning vehicle as "a little workbench project." However, it went on to say that it took Timbs more than two and a half years to complete the car, and it cost him around $10,000 – far from the simple home-hobbyist project indicated by the article's title.
The automobile has evolved from curiosity to daily necessity. Its form has advanced from the horseless carriages of the early twentieth century to the sleek, highly functional objects we know today. The experimental, concept, or "dream car," as it became known in the early 1950s, has long been a dynamic tool allowing designers to showcase and demonstrate forward-thinking automotive design ideas. Concept cars were not objects the public typically could purchase, but rather the testing ground for innovations that might find expression in automobiles produced decades later. This exhibition explores the innovative designs that sparked ideas of future possibility and progress. It examines the dream car through five themes: individual makers, the impact of styling, visionary designers, the design process, and the influence of automobile fairs.
Chosen from hundreds of concept cars produced between 1932 and the present day, the visions for these automobiles are exciting to behold. Like most concept cars, those on display were never intended for production. Imagine an egg-shaped electric car, an exterior surface made of flexible fabric, or a jet fighter rolling down the highway – all of these were among the ideas dreamed up by designers and are featured in these galleries. The "dream" represented by these cars was that of future possibilities and pushing the limits of imagination and design.

Dream Cars: Innovative Design, Visionary Ideas is organized by the High Museum of Art, Atlanta.

bees wont go inside the boxes at night!
September 14, 2004, 07:11:51 AM »
i'm planning on moving my colonies to a new location but i see a lot of the bees resting quietly on the outer part of my boxes all through the night. the weather has been relatively cool because of the rains, but even during an light evening shower i see them still outside the box. how do i get them to go inside the boxes so i can close the boxes and ready them for relocation? what is this a sign of? is this normal?

Hi Tig:
Sounds like over-crowdedness in the hive. Often, outside temps can be cool, but over-crowded hives can exceed 95 degrees (the ideal temperature for egg hatching and brood rearing) and to keep the temps at or near this temp, the excess bees need to beard outside the box.
This will trigger swarming almost everytime - if you have bearding in cooler weather, so expect a swarm soon. The only way to avoid it (if at all) is to add a hive body (super) with drawn comb (ideally) or frames with foundation (generally) to give the bearding bees somewhere to go and MORE IMPORTANTLY something to do!
You could search and kill off any queens or queen cells, but letting a hive swarm isn't the worse case scenario, your hive could benefit by swarming. Of course the bees that swarm MAY NOT have the best of times finding a viable home that they can prepare for Wintering, but the bees left behind will have "RELATIVELY" a lot of honey stores to go into the Winter with and that is always a good thing.
Many people would argue (and rightly so) that late season swarming should be prevented, but realistically to the backyard beekeeper it comes so quickly that before you get a chance to stop the swarm, the swarm occurs.
Personally I don't mind letting the swarming happen. Often you can reclaim the swarms, but just as often they find their way back into nature and help repopulate the feral bee count. The real problem which occurs is COMPETITION for food sources for your hived bees. Swarms who are luck enough to find a home that is functional as a hive are very accelerated as nectar and pollen collectors, compared to a hive which already has a hive at (or near) capacity. So evaluating your area (as far as food sources go) is important whether you want to allow or prevent swarming, or letting bees return to the wilds. The other issue of course is infestation of varroa and the inability of a feral hive to protect itself and later pass on the varroa to your colonies.
There are pluses and minuses in everything, but your hive is overpopulated, at least it sure sounds like it - adding space and removing any swarm queen cells is the only realistic way to prevent swarming - you might need though to concidar whether you want to build the hive up (late in the season in MOST of the US) or let nature take its course and THEN move the hive once the population is more balanced to the available space.
Good luck and as always, look for many opinions, I'm just another beekeeper, Beemaster is just a name, not a title :)

You might consider splitting the hive. I would suggest reducing congestion by taking out some of the frames with brood and putting them in a new box with some empty frames. You will want to replace the frames you took out of the parent colony to ensure that you have the same number of frames, but more space. Make sure you have only 1 queen in one of the colonies. If you have queen cells, handle them carefully (so as not to dislodge the developing queen). Put the frames with queen cells in the hive that does not have the original queen. I see you are located in the Philipines, a place I know little about. If you are going into a period of low nectar production, then you may need to either feed them or come up with an alternative. I would suggest talking my suggestions over with a local beekeeper to see if this is consistent with your area.

hi john and idaho! thanks for the advice and yes over crowding was the first thing that leaped to my mind when i saw. i'm sorry but i didn't explain my situation very well. i'm from the philippines which is a very tropical country, so needless to say we don't have winter, only rainy season and dry. my bees belong to A. mellifera, my queens have been imported from Kona, Hawaii. i cannot just split the hives because we lack genetic material to make any queen rearing feasible, nor are there any feral colonies of the A. Mellifera species which means my bees will inbreed if i allow swarms to issue.
for now my bees are fed with sugar syrup because its the rainy season, and will continue that way till about december. pollen, however is not a problem because they are bringing back a lot of it. as to the congestion problem, i have already placed supers over the lower brood box and check up once a week. i usually insert 2 foundations to give them work, and by a week, one is usually fully drawn and the other partially drawn which makes me insert another foundation. i have checked for queen cells, so far only one of the 5 boxes has it....and shes the weakest of my colonies having only one brood box with 8 frames in it. i have taken to naming the queen...queenless! thats because this particular queen persists in laying queen cells! i don't know if its genetics or if she has weak pheromones, but amazingly, shes my best laying queen! her laying pattern is text book example with almost no empty spaces. if you draw out a sealed brood, you will see the food on top, pollen on the sides and the rest is capped brood. her hive draws the fastest combs...usually two full ones in a week, has the most sealed and emerging brood frames, and the most egg frames! unfortunately, her tendency to keep making queen cells has forced me to keep transferring her closed brood to other hives so i can maintain her box to only 7 or 8 frames so its easier for me to check for queen cells.
im a newbie at this since i started only last july, with 40 nuc colonies. i am awaiting my additional order of another 20 nucs which will be arriving before the end of the month, making a total of 60 colonies. the goal is to strengthen all the colonies before the start of the nectar flow in january. with the arrival of the next 20 nucs, a lot of my colonies which have supers will be depopulated because i will have to get closed brood to transfer to the nucs to equalize.
my real problem is that of my original 0 hives, i brought home 5 to Manila where i live. the rest i left in the farm which is located 70 KM from Manila. the reason for bringing them home was that these 5 were weaker than the rest. for one reason or the other, the other 35 had overtaken them badly so i was adviced to separate them which i did. it seems that being under my constant care strengthened them spectacularly because now they have become my strongest colonies! now comes the nightmare....a neighbor of mine was found to have america foulbrood. you must understand that beekeeping in my country it at its infancy...we have only about 500 beekeepers and none of them have more than 500 hives. here, having 60 hives is considered commercial because most have only about 10 to 20 hives of mellifera. being an island nation, pest and diseases aren't readily brought in because we do quarantine, but smuggling is another matter. somehow, someone must have smuggled in bees or materials with AFB. for whatever reason, the positive findings of American foulbrood has sent the industry in a panic and all the beekeepers have been asked NOT to move any hives around and to take all necessary precautions. the 5 colonies i have here at home are under quarantine because of my near proximity to an infected apiary. now is the second nightmare....my village has decided to start fogging for mosquito control! because of the quarantine i cannot remove my bees and because they are bearding, i cannot even close the boxes to bring them indoors! i have until tomorrow to figure out what to do to save these 5 hives because as sure as death and taxes, the fogging will kill them all!

Not sure what type of hives your using, but if they are not cramped and they are bearding, then there isn't enough ventilation in the hive.
Before I started using screened bottom boards, bearding would happen even on hives that had plenty of room. Initial I used slatted racks above the bottom board, and that eliminated the bearding. Since that time I have switched to screened bottom boards and have not had any bearding.
Try giving them as much ventilation as possible and see if that works.

Then I would suggest screened bottom boards or slatted racks and either a ventilation box on top or prop the cover up with some 1" x 1" on top of the inner cover that the teloscoping edges of the cover rest on. This is assuming there is adequate space already, and they aren't crowded.

Wow, I think the school principal could have used a little more discretion.
May 29, 2008
WINCHENDON— Ten-year-old Bradley Geslak was suspended from school this week for bringing a Memorial Day souvenir to school.
The Toy Town Elementary School fourth-grader had received two empty rifle shell casings from blanks used during the town celebration held at the GAR Park Monday morning.
He brought one of the casings with him to school the next day.
"He was just playing with it at lunch," explained Crystal Geslak, Bradley's mother. "He wasn't showing it to anyone; he had it in his hand and was playing with it."
Bradley said a teacher saw him with it and told him to hand it over.
"The teacher told me to give it to her and I did," he said.
After the piece of brass was confiscated, Ms. Geslak was called at work and told to come and pick up her son; he was being suspended for the next five days.
Her son was in tears when she got there.
"I was totally shocked. I couldn't believe this was happening," she said.
"Ordinarily, I try to think ahead about things, but to me, this was something good, not bad. It was just an empty shell, not even from a real bullet. A sharpened pencil would be more dangerous than this piece of metal."
Her son had been given the two blank shells by a uniformed veteran who participated in the ceremony Monday. Bradley gave one to his grandfather and kept the other souvenir for himself.
Having received the souvenir from an adult, he never considered it wrong for him to have it, his mother said.
"He was so proud to have been given them. His dad's a veteran, his uncle's a veteran, both his grandfathers are veterans. Memorial Day is a big thing to us. It's a very important holiday and we have a big celebration every year," Ms. Geslak said.
She is now concerned about the impact that having the shell taken away will have on her son and his feelings about the holiday in the future.
According to the family, a school official said on Tuesday that the shell would not be returned to them. The family said they were also told that the next step might involve assigning a probation officer to Bradley.
They also said they don't know the whole story yet.
"When I went to pick him up, I was told that the teacher hadn't finished writing up her report on what took place and that I would get that later," Ms. Geslak said. "I would have thought that when deciding to suspend my son that they would have had a complete report ready for me."
School officials refused to comment on the incident yesterday, citing privacy regulations.
"I cannot give any comment on school suspensions," Principal Deborah Peterson said. "I cannot confirm or deny a suspension took place, and I cannot speak about anything involving a minor. It's all confidential, just like at a doctor's office."
Attempts to reach Superintendent Brooke Clenchy and School Committee Chairman Michael Niles for comment were unsuccessful.
"I am worried about what having a weapon-related suspension on his school record will mean to his future," his mother said.
"He's like any other 10-year-old kid. Sometimes he can have a bad attitude," she said. "We dealt with that once earlier this year and I don't want them to now think he is a bad kid or label him as one.
"If he had been suspended for having a bad attitude, I could have understood it. I would have supported them in that. But not for this. He didn't even know he did anything wrong," she said.
Ms. Geslak will have plenty of time to think about that in the coming days, because the suspension also means that she has had to give up hours at work to be with her son.

Second Look At Electoral College Reform?
posted at 3:32 pm on December 17, 2012 by Duane Patterson
When polls tightened after the first presidential debate, you know, the one for which Barack Obama didn't bother showing up, there was a lot of talk amongst the left, and it spilled over onto media outlets, about how antiquated the Electoral College was, and why don't we just do away with it once and for all and go with popular vote. It's a horrible idea, of course, but are there tweaks to the way states award Electoral College votes that would more accurately represent where Americans are at, politically? The GOP is starting to think so.
Underreported in all the bad news the last two presidential cycles is the fact that Repulicans have been gradually and methodically increasing their numbers in state houses, including full control of Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania. Reid Wilson in the National Journal today explains how Republicans are contemplating using those new majorities to more level the Electoral College playing field by changing their system from winner-take-all to awarding them by Congressional districts.
Any such movement would bring about conflict like we just saw in Lansing, Michigan, except tenfold. But after being labeled by the left as racist, sexist, homophobic, misogynist, lying, greedy, murderous and crooked, I'm not sure being called a cheater for changing the system concerns me much.
The best example I can give why to support the plan?

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|The boat is about 200 feet from shore, I'm bringing air tube for the bubblers from shore not electricity to the boat, junk is not a concerne where will be the boat there is not current. Only concerne is wind from north and I will try to put some kind of protection at the bow
|How far from shore will it be? how will you get power out to it, it is not like you can run it off the boat batteries, they are pretty powerful motors, and will take some amperage to run it. Just does not seem like a good idea for a couple of weeks of sailing. Another concern is that there is a lot of junk that flows out most rivers in the spring, like fallen trees and trash that I sure would not want dragging my boat with it.
insurance is certainly a concern your right, but I can assume the risk myself.
Ice is less present year to year, a friend of mine just bought a fiberglass amor 40 that made succesfully the north west passage last year and he is not the only one that made it in a plastic boat.
Sail-World.com : North West Passage Ahoy - seven yachts and counting...
Maybe I should change my question: what are the conditions the keep a plastic boat in the winter in Canada? A lot of people did it or doing it right now, I won't be the first, just want to know how to make it the right way.
So what I need? Bubblers, 360 degrees protection (I guest it's not all boat winterizing in the water that as that protection), heating inside the boat, 2x4 around the boat ???
I won't be liveaboard, my house is 2 minutes from the boat so I can keep an eye on it.
|If the boat is insured, you may want to check with your insurance company beforehand to confirm the boat would be covered if it became locked in ice. Insurance companies usually frown upon owners knowingly leaving insured property at significant risk. In the event of a loss, use of the bubblers might be important to show you made a reasonable effort to protect the boat from damage. If self-insuring . . . one would have to be a brave soul indeed to let a fiberglass boat become engulfed in that much ice.
This is a good point, the moving ice in the spring can be a problem for sure.
But I watched ice movement last year on the bassin and there was next to none.
Ice only melt in place or so with some weak movements that won't hurt the hull I'm sure (current is only underwater and I think there is one because a stream in line with the rapid de-ice faster every year.
The problem can be if I get strong winds from north (rare but it can happen), and all the ice from about 1 miles of the bassin go toward my boat that will be close to shore (at anchor on the south part of the bassin)
There must me a way the prevent ice from touching the hull like suspend pieces of 2x6 of wood next to fenders aroung the boat ?
Some water front home owners leave their docks in the water without problem everyyear at this place, maybe they were lucky...
keep giving me your advices :-)
If you are in a river that does not freeze more than a few inches you will probably be fine. Your description on the boat you saw in 3-4 foot of ice said that it was pulled out in January. If the hull does not get crushed in that much ice I can assure you that the ice will move in the Spring, especially if there is a current. Windage alone will move ice which will then do major damage to anything in its way. I have seen steel boat lifts turned into pretzels by spring ice.
Good luck
|Last winter I watched the ice on lake superior drag a 1,000lb block of concrete about 1/4mile as the ice moved. Someone didn't sink their mooring, it froze in the ice and got drug. Kind of illustrates the power of what you're dealing with... and that was in a relatively protected harbour.
there is no tide where the boat will be and it's not salt water.
when ice thaws, it is expending then causing breakage?
For ice-build up (accumulation of ice), I noticed they were next to the shore, not at 100 feet of it.
Howewer I think I will get some kind of device the prevent ice, at least the first year and make some tests without the boat in the water.
Rob, I understand ice-eater is working for you in 4 feet of water. Is a ice-eater same thingh as a bubbler or it's different type?
|No way I would let my fiberglass "significant investment" get locked in ice if I could prevent it. I've read of steel boats wintering-in this way much further north, but I think it's too risky with fiberglass. Our marina in Lake Ontario uses bubblers in a few places (to protect underwater electrical conduits coming up to the dock) to good affect with 6 - 8 foot water depths. Keeping the water moving appears to be the crucial thing. On a really really cold night, a thin surface coat of ice might still form, but each time I looked anyway, the bubblers had it broken up by noon. Even with bubblers, I'd still be nervous they'd stop (e.g., power loss) when I wasn't able to check on them.
I do not think its at all good for a boat to be locked in 3-4 feet of ice. However, I believe that the damage comes when the ice starts to move away as it breaks-up/thaws. Locked in ice is not good for the boat but will most likely not cause the real damage (unless seacocks freeze and burst). Docks and poles typically get damaged when the ice is pulled away. Now every situation is going to be different here so I am commenting based off general experience.
I use an ice-eater for my 30 footer in a salt-water creek in NY. Low-low tide the keel is at rest on very soft mud at my dock (~4 feet directly under the boat and maybe 6 foot several more feet away from the dock). The ice-eater works fine and no ice ever develops under these circumstances. It could be that its angled in a way to pull water from the center of the creek where its deeper and slightly warmer but again, no ice forms around my boat.
Every situation is going to be different but the above is my experience in cold-cold 20 degree winters.

For eight years under the Bush administration the United States has been engaged in a "war against terrorism." The word "terrorism" does not indicate a specific group or entity, but is an abstraction like saying we are "waging a war against crime." President Obama has begun the process of switching from the aggressive language of Bush towards a language of peace and reconciliation. Only once has the new president used the expression "terrorism" and that was part of a sentence that listed forces to be confronted. The Bush language came across to the American people as though the United States was engaged in a war against Muslims since "terrorism" was only associated with that group. At no point did Bush refer to the brutality in Zimbabwe or the death of five million in the Congo as examples of "terrorism."
Obama made his first television interview on a Muslim TV station and talked about seeking to find peaceful ways to dealing with issues. He understands the power of words in transforming views of listeners. The aggressive tone of Bush from "getting terrorists" to "Mission Accomplished" has confused, not clarified the nature of what America seeks to accomplish in the world.
There are terrorist groups in any cluster of humans whether they be Muslim, Jewish, Protestant, Catholic or atheist. President Obama is correct in identifying specific groups as enemies and ending a fight against abstractions.

The RedSeal Platform is a cyber-security intelligence system that is based on proactive end-to-end complex network modeling and analysis. It provides network, security, and risk management teams with a firm understanding of where security is working, where improvement is needed, and where greatest attack risks lie. RedSeal replaces blind security management with a platform that enables enterprises to visualize the network infrastructure; comply with regulatory and internal policies; and protect the enterprise's digital assets from attack.
The RedSeal Platform does all the magic without disturbing the network traffic. It imports the configuration of network devices (Routers, Switches, Firewall, Load Balancers, Wireless Controller etc.) via repositories or live connections, and then builds the "virtual reality" model of the network and apply sophisticated mathematical computations to figure out, for every endpoint, what can access what via what path. From there, the RedSeal Platform can do further analysis on risk and exposure by importing the vulnerability scan data and applying the access intelligence on it. As a result, users can use this analytical intelligence to instantly see what access violations are, what top exposures are and what the overall risk situation is.
Hundreds of enterprise and government agencies use RedSeal Platform today to continuously gain situation awareness of their network. RedSeal Networks is the leading provider of network infrastructure security management solutions that continuously provides network visualization and identify critical attack risk and non-compliance in complex security infrastructure.

Here's my current situation...
I had to drive about 5 hours south of my house today to drop some stuff off for work. My buddy owns a piece of property another 30 mins south of there (about 1/4 mile off water at Baffin Bay) so I figured I would bring my stuff and get a morning hunt in. The property has 3 ponds and all had knee to waist deep water during dove season (Sept - Oct). We get here today and all 3 are bone dry! He has an 8" irrigation well on the property with enough pipe to reach one of the ponds. We moved all the pipe and kicked the pump on about 3PM. This particular pond is about 1/2 a football field in size when full. At 7PM the entire bottom of the pond was covered about an inch deep. We're planning to let it run all night and are guessing it will have 5-6" of water in it when we get up tomorrow morning.
History on the property:
We've hunted it the past two years with good success. We always see a LOT of ducks crossing over it in the morning going from a roosting area to the bay. We didn't get here until late afternoon today so we didn't get to see any ducks passing over but we saw several thousand Sandhills pass over this evening on the same flight path we have always seen in the past so we're hoping that means the ducks are doing similar movements again this year.
Since the pond has been dry for an unknown time period, do y'all thing it would even be worth trying in the morning to see if we can lure some passing ducks into a spread?
My dad's with me (neither of us know much about duck hunting, but we're learning). We're split on the topic. He wants to pack up and head out early. I say we're here, we might as well give it a shot before heading home...

I know there's a thread that was just posted about behavior for house guests, but I'm in search of advice for every day at home with me.
My 1 year old his a jumper. Weather I leave the house for an hour or am home all day, he constantly feels the need to jump on me and give me kisses. Normally I don't mind and he is fine when we have visitors. It seems to be only me he does this with. He doesn't seem to have much control over his weight and me being a tiny woman it feels as if I'm about to be knocked down. I'm pregnant at the moment and will be due in about 7 weeks. I worry he may knock me down with the new baby.
Any tips on getting this to stop?

Dogs jump on you for many different reasons. In general, it could be translated as "Let us - (do this and that)!" and they jump in order to be at your level. They do it absolutely in the same way to other dogs, but they don't have to jump, just stand on back legs to encourage other dog to follow them, to engage in some play, or simply stimulate for faster action. You trained your dog to kiss you yourself, so, now you get the best results. On one hand that is good, because it demonstates a relationship between the inferior (your dog) and the superior (you). Kisses, as we recognize them are characteristic to humans only, for dogs kisses indicate their position in the hierarchy. Young puppies lick their mother's chin and cheeks asking her for food, they cannot digest meat and their mother regurgitate it for them semi-digested. Other members of wolf/dog pack feed them as well, in this case licking means "Feed me!" Later in the puppies' age this behaviour continues and it means "Please, be nice to me!" or "I agree, that you are older, stronger and better than me!". It will stop automatically with puberty, if not encourages. By mouthfeeding my dogs time to time, allowing them or asking them to kiss me I always tried to remind them who they are in relationship to me regardless of their age.
So, in your dog, there is a mixture of two things: 1) servility and appreciation expressed in kissing; 2) a wish to stimulate you to act, expressed in jumping, from which I can draw a conclusion that your dog is very eager to play with you. You probably, cry, shout at him, push him away, or try to hide your pregnant front - and he recognizes it as a sort of play. Everything you can do, just change the way you play with him (sure, it is not a joke for you, but for him it is a game). Your dog is eager to get your attention, don't give it to him for free. I hope, you are still capable to crouch in fron of him. Only he starts it - ask him to sit, crouch and allow him to kiss you. He musn't get up, ask him to sit if he wants to be close to your face. "Sit!" in a lovely quiet voice. He wants to please you - ask him to bring you your slippers. Train him to bring you different things, don't worry, the majority of dogs can identify up to 300 different objects by name. More you involve him in home training - better he will become. Kyra Sundance in her "101 dog tricks" provides a very good explanation how to train your dog at home, this book is for free and you can easily find it on the net.
Quote: "By mouthfeeding my dogs time to time, allowing them or asking them to kiss me I always tried to remind them who they are in relationship to me regardless of their age."
OP, here is a video that is really helpful for teaching a dog not to jump:
Once my dogs figured out that keeping 'four on the floor' was the rule, then I made it a default sit, and now when Krissie wants attention from anybody, she runs up and plants her butt on the ground (still wiggling though, that tail doesn't stop).

CBS promotes fabricated controversy over White House health care emails
Earlier this week, we highlighted [1] a Newsmax column [2] by Richard Grenell, in which he ranted that a health care reform plan to permit coverage of dependents on their parents' insurance up to age 26 means those youths will be "enticed to continue slacking, without a job, well past college graduation," adding that "ski bums everywhere are cheering the news."
Imagine our surprise to learn that within a week, Grenell -- "spokesman for the last four U.S. Ambassadors to the United Nations: Zalmay Khalilzad, John Bolton, John Danforth and John Negroponte" -- had somehow graduated from Newsmax to CBS News.
Yes, CBSNews.com has published an "opinion" column [3] by Grenell. He manages to avoid maligning slackers this time; rather, he accuses White House Office of Health Reform Director Nancy-Ann DeParle of sending "annoying and partisan emails" to federal employees promoting health care reform. Grenell claims that some federal employees "feel threatened" by the emails and suggests there will be "retribution" if "the federal employee doesn't act in the way The White House is suggesting." Grenell goes on to ponder: "Has The White House requested that another federal agency monitor who is acting on behalf of Obama's health reform bill and who is not?"
Grenell's column is pure speculation -- he provides no evidence whatsoever that any retribution has or will taken place. He also doesn't provide any quotes -- even anonymous quotes -- from federal employees.
In fact, despite Grenell's claim that the emails are being sent "unsolicited" to federal employees, it appears they are sent out to everyone on the whitehouse.gov mailing list. Further, versions of them are also posted on the White House website. One email's request to "help raise awareness by sharing this email with your friends, family and online networks" is not specifically targeted at federal employees, as Grenell implies -- it's to everyone who got a copy. If Grenell was on the White House's email list, he would presumably have gotten the same message.
Grenell's complete lack of substance, of course, didn't keep Fox Nation from promoting his column at the top of its front page:
Who's Grenell's agent? We'd like to meet the guy who allowed Grenell to bust down the doors of CBS News with such empty speculation.

Sorta both. We had a responsive design developed by another group using Bootstrap 2. We slide in Bootstrap 3 to get the slide-from-the-side behavior on the mobile views. I suppose by now we are a long way from the starter theme, but we started there.
@rick Nice site. Looks beautiful. We've been doing a lot of WP sites recently. Here's one integrated with Bootstrap. https://med.uth.edu/cvs
Hi Rick -- Nice! Did you use a Bootstrap starter theme or roll your own from scratch with the bootstrap framework?
We just launched a new WordPress site for our user oriented support information about IT at the University of Washington. We wanted the site to work well with all devices from smartphones to big desktops. It was built with Bootstrap 3. Let me know what you think. It is at http://uw.edu/itconnect/
How do you delete a group? I can't seem to delete it now.
Daniel - Yes, that would be great. I'll delete my group, then.
Hi Hillary -- Rather than a new group, I was thinking of a forum post. I find these Ning groups tend to be dead ends, but the Forum accessible from the main page is more active. Should I create a starter post on the forum for us, or would you prefer the Group?
I hope I did this right. I created a group called Migrations.
@Daniel @Hillary - Agreed. Hillary - please open the group for us to participate in. No sense depriving the community of our wisdom.

Former Manchester Mayor John Mongan remembered for service
By MARK HAYWARD
New Hampshire Union Leader | June 20. 2013 10:46PM
Mongan, who was 88, died at Villa Crest nursing home, where he shared a room with his wife, Mary Mongan, said Robert Baines, a Mongan protégé who served three terms as mayor in the 2000s. Baines was unsure of the cause of death and said Mongan had been at the nursing home for several years.
"He wasn't a favorite of the Union Leader," Baines said. "He was very progressive and challenged the status quo. He asserted the office of mayor in ways never seen before."
In a statement, Mayor Ted Gatsas said: "Today the Brown Avenue Industrial Park continues to thrive because of Mayor Mongan's steadfast dedication to the Queen City." Following tradition, black curtains will obscure the windows of Gatsas' office today in honor of Mongan.
"His mind was always somewhere else," Fortin said. Mongan would walk down the street and not say hello to acquaintances, who would then call the office and complain about the snub.
But Mongan returned four years later to defeat Roland Vallee. His campaign included the soft touch of his wife as well as hardball politics. The Mongans handed out roses to workers leaving the afternoon shift at the Mill-yard, and they sent formal invitations requesting the vote of the recipient.
Days before the election, the Union Leader ran a full-page Mongan advertisement that highlighted generous tax abatements Vallee had received on his Manchester properties. "Your taxes keep going up, up, up while Vallee's go down, down, down," the ad read.
Democratic aldermen were overwhelmingly hostile to Mongan, and he relied on Mary to handle the politics, Fortin said.
Mongan went on to work for the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and was appointed regional administrator by President Reagan, Baines said. He campaigned for Congress, U.S. Senate and governor, but only won his two terms as mayor.
Mary Mongan went on to become New Hampshire commissioner of health and human services and president of the Hillcrest Terrace retirement community.

NFL Draft > 2010 Prospects > FS > Reshad Jones
Reshad Jones Scouting Report

|Jersey Number:
|Height & Weight:
|6'2 - 212 lbs.
2010 NFL Combine Results
|40-Yard Dash
|Bench press
|Vertical jump
2010 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
Reshad Jones, FS, Georgia
Jones was redshirted prior to his freshman season at Georgia, so he was three years removed from high school at the end of last year. As a result, he could have gone to the NFL; and he almost did. The free safety indicated he would leave Athens early and enter the 2009 draft, but he decided to pull his name out prior to the deadline. That was music to Mark Richt's ears, as the Bulldog defense had been dreadful outside of Jones and linebacker Rennie Curran. Without Jones, it's hard to imagine where the already-mediocre Georgia team would have been. He finished second on the team in total tackles behind Curran with 73 and also finished second in solo tackles with 44. He led the team in pass breakups (seven) and interceptions (four). Jones has good size at 6'2', 212 pounds, but he needs to run consistently in the 4.4s in order to be an elite player at his position, because right now his coverage skills are lacking just a bit (he ran a 4.53 and 4.47 in two attempts at Georgia's pro day). A lot of scouts, however, think Jones will be a better player in the NFL than in college (which is saying a fair amount). He has all the physical tools to live up to those expectations, and he should be more effective when he does not have to do almost everything for an otherwise awful defense. Jones should be off the board no later than the end of round three.

Prediction: 2nd Round
He is a better player that than some people realizes. He will show it in the NFL once he get under the right coaching staff.

Had Slutskaya skated cleanly with only 7 triples or just a triple toe-triple toe the judges would have placed a clean Maria 1st in the long though and won overall.

Just bought a brand new H & R 22-250 rifle, great little gun, heavy barelled and accurate.
Huge problem, pull the trigger and the gun opens, took it to a local gunsmith, he found a small piece of metal & wood inside
and more dust/debri than should of been inside a new gun. Called the gun maker, they did not deny that was a problem but need the gun back. I am going to send it back shortly, went on You-Tube and found a clip with a 500 Handi Rifle that was doing the same thing. Anyone ever heard of this problem??

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|There is a lot to getting the correct adjustment on the TV cable as I have spent countless hours getting my 700r4 to work in my 56 chevy behind a 383. As you know this is probably one of the most important adjustments you can make. I would strongly discourage trying to adjust the TV cable to adjust the shift points as this will most likely end up with a burned up trans. So here is what I did. With the pan off, I snugged up the TV cable so there was no slack in the cable. I did this with some trail and error but with two people it is easier. Basically when I was done with the adjustment with the carb at the idle position choke warm, there was slight pressure on the valve in the trans that the TV cable moves and/or presses against. I tested the trans at WOT to ensure there was good travel and the trans valve moved correctly and completely throught the entire travel pathway. You are also correct in that the geometry of the carb fitting for the TV cable needs to be correct to get the proper travel from idle to WOT. Now, after I did this my trans would shift through all the gears by the time I was only at 20mph. Of couse at WOT it was spread out a little farther but still in 4th by 40mph. Shifting way too soon, so the next step is to adjust the governer in the back of the trans. You can get to it without removing the pan or any fluid. You have to install lighter springs to delay the upshift points and tighter springs to quicken the upshift point. You will want to try lighter springs. Again trial and error. I found I had very stiff spings so I ended up with only one spring and it was a fairly light spring. My shift points are much more spread out now. Very acceptable. Of couse if you are wanting more crisp shifts once you get the shift points at the proper speeds you have options. Good luck.
700R4 Tv cable
Hello All I have a 350 with a 700R4 in a 1939 international pick up. I am using stock mounting bracket for Tv cable hold down this is hooked to a qudrajet carb so should be correct geometry? I am having soft shifting and shifts out of 1st gear at 5 mph if you shift manualy shifts firm if you run rpm up some. When I adjusted tv cable i pushed button and mashed accelator pedal to floor and locked. Last night I clicked back 2 clicks twards fire wall and did not seem to change anything. Any help would be appreciated.

Relishing the release name
So after the vote was taken, after the balloons had fallen to the convention floor, the release name for Fedora 17 is Beefy Miracle, a cartoon hot dog.
Given the alternatives on the ballot (more on this later), I'm OK with this release name and it passes muster-d with yours truly.
Some people have a beef with this release name and have been going out of their way to grill its proponents on what a huge faux pas and injustice this is. Beefy Miracle — how could you name something like that? Don't you see it will make you a laughingstock? What were you people thinking?
To those who bring this up, I say: Relax. It's a release name, and as far as I can tell, the release names for any distro only hold a degree of significance to the developers. From what I understand, there is a history of the Beefy Miracle name within Red Hat circles and this hot dog thing has been years in the making.
But to the rest of the FOSS world, generally after the announcement of the release name (or at the time of the distro's release), the name is quickly forgotten. We hear what adjective and animal that Mark Shuttleworth comes up with, some roll our eyes at the announcement, and move on. Fedora goes through its semi-annual knock-down, drag out debate about a release name, it's decided upon by range voting, and life goes on.
Rarely, if ever, is the release name ever confused with a distro name ("Beefy Miracle Linux"? Nope), even this one.
Here's proof: Don't Google it, but what's the release name for Fedora 12? For Ubuntu 7.10? Right, you have to go back and check on that because Constantine and Gutsy Gibbon were not indelibly seared into your consciousness.
Admittedly, the Design Team at Fedora — the best in FOSS — probably has its hands full in coming up with an adequate desktop for Fedora 17. But this could be the only down side to the whole Beefy Miracle issue.
And to the guys insisting on the frat boy, locker-room, ahem, "humor?" It's time to stop now. You're reaching and not grasping here, and while it could be marginally funny to some the first time, it's pretty lame on the whole.
It's a cartoon hot dog, that's all. Sheesh.
I was vocally against Beefy Miracle for a Fedora 16 release name, primarily because there were more interesting names on that particular ballot. The Fedora 17 ballot didn't offer much in the way of appealing options, making Beefy Miracle almost a fait accompli.
To paraphrase Bill Murray in "Ghostbusters," "OK, so it's a dog." But it's one that I'll take with some mustard — which shows progress — and relish.

Click for "Microbes After Hours" videos
Thermophiles have certain proteins, or enzymes, that are specially geared to working in high temperatures even as hot at 284° F (140° C). Keep in mind that water boils at 212° F (100° C). The normal-temperature proteins and enzymes in your body would start unfolding and breaking apart long before it got as hot as 284° F.
You see, proteins are strings of molecules called amino <ah-mee-no> acids (imagine a string of pearls with each pearl representing an amino acid). But for proteins to work right, their amino acid strings can't just stretch out in a line.
They have to be twisted and folded in just the right three-dimensional patterns (imagine bunching that pearl necklace up in your hand). High heat can cause these 3-D structures to unfold and the links holding the pattern together to break. And when they unfold, enzymes no longer work right.
Enzymes in thermophiles are called extremozymes <ex-treem-oh-zimes>. One thing that these extremozymes do to hold their 3-D shapes together in high heat is folding themselves tighter than normal temperature enzymes do. As you know, a tight knot in your shoelace is harder to get out than a loose one. Also, lots of chemical bonds formed between amino acids on the outer surfaces of extremozymes help keep these proteins intact and folded just right. These bonds act as fasteners holding together the shape of the enzymes.
Another trick is having a smaller amount of the amino acid glycine <gly-seen> than normal-temperature proteins have. Of the 20 different amino acids that make proteins, glycine is the second most commonly found in regular proteins. It helps them be flexible and bend a bit. Having less glycine makes extremozymes more rigid and sturdier.
One really cool tool hyperthermophiles use to keep their enzymes working right is a special type of fix-it protein called "chaperonin" <shap-er-oh-nin>. These chaperonin proteins fix enzymes beginning to fall apart by latching onto them and refolding them back into their active patterns—sort of like a microscopic back doctor except that chaperonins put the kinks back in instead of taking them out.
