I think we should be doing free swarm removals if they are close by and not out of the ordinary circumstances. We need to keep the image of the friendly beekeeper and friendly honeybees and not the pest swarms cast off from the beekeepers that then have the guts to charge for their removal.Of course I don't feel that the latter is the right mind set but I can easily see people feeling that way if they see a hundred colonies a mile from their place and then are told if they want a swarm removed it will cost them $150.00. If you expect ordinary folk to offer their land freely for honey production I don't think you want to charge their neighbors to have swarms removed.
Bjorn, believe it or not it is true. Maybe not for retrieving your own swarms from commercial operations but right here in GA we have master beeks (that specialize in nothing but honey bees) that provide swarm removal and cut outs and charge just like the professionals that they are.
Beekeepers have been doing cutouts, swarm removal and other services for the public for years. Make that HUNDREDS of years.Can anyone show me one example of a beekeeper screwing the public, getting sued, or any other justification being suggested that the homeowners "need protected" from the beekeepers actions?Figures it would be a few pest control people coming here suggesting that beekeepers need to carry insurance to provide a basic services and the need for the public to protect themselves from those nasty and unscrupulous beekeepers.I'm sure the tow truck drivers feel the same way about me giving someone a jump for their dead battery. Or pulling them out of a ditch. It figures some are part of the government's intrusive agenda on free trade and markets, justifying it that one group needs protected from another. This perpetuation that everybody needs certified, licensed, and regulated for every possible thing is absurd. And I question those that promote it, justify, and are part of that system.I hear of MANY more complaints and shady dealings from certified pest control people over charging and doing crappy work. Never heard that about a beekeeper.So yes, we should demand reasonable protection from money grubbing sticky fingered pest control guys that charge old ladies $400 dollars to walk around for 15 minute spraying nasty chemicals everywhere.Leave the beekeepers alone. they provide a service, whether free or otherwise, and from what I see, are not ripping anyone off. Sounds to me as if a few people are trying to protect their own interest, disguised as mumbo jumbo wishy washy double talk. And I am actually surprised someone would come to a bee forum and crap on beekeepers by suggesting the public needs insurance from these folks because they need protection from beekeepers.David, You come here and make false allegations against someone you don't like because among other things, Billy did not join your association. Now you crap on beekeepers. Who's next? :roll:

Focusing on understanding the human condition within the societal context, the Human Services minor provides students with the theoretical and applied tools of helping individuals, families, and communities.
The Human Services Minor offers students the opportunity to work with children, adolescents, or adults in a variety of human service settings. There are two tracks you could take — the policy/administrative track and the clinical track.
Review the requirements for a Minor in Human Services.
This course introduces students to a wide range of human service professions, with particular attention paid to the fields of art therapy, counseling, expressive arts therapy, holistic psychology, human services and psychology. Career opportunities are explored through guest presentations and assignments in community settings. The values and ethical issues facing human service professionals are introduced.
This course focuses on the development of communication skills and the clinical skills of interviewing, case analysis, and professional conduct. Critical thinking about professional practice is emphasized, with particular focus on the analysis of the public policies that shape human service delivery. A one-day per week internship is required of all students at an approved site.
This course is designed as a senior capstone course for both Human Services and Counseling majors. Students critically examine selected contemporary issues related to the development of public policy and legislation. Through analysis of targeted issues like teen pregnancy, child abuse, AIDS and homelessness, students examine the connections between social policy, the human service worker, and the delivery of human services.

Hi Everyone
Wanted to let people see the gauntlets I made from the WOF templates and get some feedback on them so I know what everyone thinks of them before I offer them up on the Dent for sale, so tell me what you think about them and if there are any tweeks I could do on them before I paint them up Jedi style.
When I start to offer them to the Dent they will not come with darts or missile as ive not done them parts but the kits will come with everything else you see in the pics and at £90 plus shipping is pretty good and it will come with the switches ready to go in and a red LED in place too, also with the hinges in place so there together. If there is any interest pm me here.
Thanks and hope you like

Home > News & Events > News > Articles > The Second Term: Joseph Nye on U.S.-Chinese Relations
President Obama's second term in office began on Inauguration Day, January 21st, and the list of policy challenges facing his administration is daunting. Aside from the difficult task of addressing the nation's economic woes, the president and his administration will also deal with the increasing complexities of global climate change, a rapidly changing energy market, entitlement and tax reform, healthcare reform, and the repercussions from the still simmering "Arab Spring." Throughout this month, we will solicit the viewpoints of a variety of HKS faculty members to provide a range of perspectives on the promise and pitfalls of The Second Term.
We spoke with Joseph Nye, Harvard University Distinguished Service Professor, and former dean of the Kennedy School, about U.S.-Chinese relations over the next four years.
Q: What are the top priorities for a second Obama administration in the regards to U.S.-Chinese relations?
A: As I argue in "The Future of Power," one of the major power shifts of the 21st century is the recovery of Asia. In 1800, Asia represented half the world's population and half the world's economy. By 1900, because of the industrial revolution in Europe and North America, Asia's share of world product declined to 20 percent. By the middle of this century, Asia should again represent half the world's population and product. This is a natural and welcome evolution, as hundreds of millions of people escape from dire poverty. At the same time, however, it has given rise to fears that China will become a threat to the United States. The fear is not necessary, however, if we remember that Asia is not one entity. It has its own internal balance of power. Japan, India, Vietnam and other countries do not want to be dominated by China, and thus, welcome an American presence in the region.
Unless China proves able to better develop its soft power of attraction, the rise in its hard military and economic power is likely to frighten its neighbors into seeking coalitions to balance against it. For example, after China developed a more assertive foreign policy in 2009, the net result was that, after a short two years, China had worsened its relations with Japan, India, South Korea, Vietnam and others — quite a remarkable record that has confirmed the premise of the American strategy that "only China can contain China." But it would be a mistake to focus only on the hedging part of a strategy. We should not over-militarize the rebalance toward Asia. The United States and China (as well as other countries) have much to gain from cooperation on a range of transnational issues. One cannot manage solutions to global financial stability, climate change, cyber-terrorism or pandemics without such cooperation. If power is the ability to affect others to obtain the outcomes one wants, it is important to remember that sometimes our power is greater when we act with others rather than merely over others. As a status quo power, the United States has much to gain from a triangle of good relations among our country, Japan and China.
Q: What are the most pressing/urgent regional issues that need to be addressed right now in Asia? How can the United States help in that process?
A: With nationalism resurgent both in China and Japan, the danger is that the relationship between them may lead to inadvertent conflict. Japan and China have been much in the news lately because of their dispute over seven square kilometers of barren islets in the East China Sea that Japan calls Senkaku and China calls Diaoyu islands. The rival claims date back to the late 19th century, but the most recent flare-up that led to widespread anti-Japan demonstrations in China in September 2012. In October of last year, Secretary of State Hilary Clinton asked me and three other former officials from Democratic and Republican administrations to travel to Tokyo and Beijing to explain the American position and to listen to the concerns of our hosts. Top Chinese leaders told us that they believe Japan is entering a period of right-wing militarist nationalism, and that the purchase of the islands was a deliberate effort by Japan to begin a process of eroding the settlement of World War II, including the Cairo and Potsdam declarations. Since then, Chinese ships and planes have continued to intrude regularly on what Japan claims as their territorial waters. Clearly, there is more going on than a mere squabble over empty islands. And just as clearly, every other Asian state from the Philippines to Vietnam to Australia, is watching what we do.
Q: How can and should the United States involve itself in Asian affairs over the next four years?
A: In 2011, President Obama announced a "pivot," later labeled a "rebalancing," toward Asia. Some American analysts argue that China's rise cannot be peaceful and that therefore the U.S. Government should now adopt a policy of containing China. Many Chinese officials perceive that to be the current American strategy, but Administration officials have denied that is the case, and they are correct. A glance at history illustrates the point. Cold War containment of the USSR meant virtually no trade and little social contact. Today the United States not only has massive trade with China, but also extensive social contact including 125,000 Chinese students attending American universities.
The task for the Obama Administration over the next four years will be to implement a balanced policy that both balances and integrates China. It must shape the environment to deter aggressive actions while holding open the opportunity for cooperation with joint gains.
Q: What opportunities does the United States have to help push forward political reforms in China in the near term?
A: One of the major questions for the future of China is whether the Chinese Communist Party can reform a political system in which corruption and favoritism lead to discontent. As societies get richer, there is an increased demand for political participation, if not outright democracy. This is even more difficult to manage in the age of the internet which China can only partly control. Unlike India which was born with a solution to the participation problem, China has not passed that hurdle. The danger is that the party, which relies on high economic growth and ethnic Han nationalism for its legitimacy, will rely more on the latter if the former slows. Only China can work out solutions to these problems, but what we can contribute is an open climate which encourages free flow of ideas and peoples.
Tuesday, Jan 20, 2009
"It [the U.S.] must shape the environment to deter aggressive actions while holding open the opportunity for cooperation with joint gains," writes Nye.

Mont Vernon man injured in Milford crash
According to a press release from the Milford Police Department, Chad Cardoza, 24, of Mont Vernon, was traveling south on Melendy Road near Ball Hill when his Toyota Tacoma pickup went off the road and hit a tree head-on. The accident occurred shortly before 2 a.m., and police, fire and ambulance personnel responded to the scene and had to extricate Cardoza from the vehicle.
Cardoza suffered serious injuries in the accident and was airlifted to the UMass Memorial Medical Center in Worcester for treatment. He is currently listed in fair condition.
Police believe that speed and alcohol were factors in the crash, but the department's accident reconstruction team is continuing to investigate. Police are asking anyone with information about the accident to contact the department at 249-0630.

Vic Akers believes having Katie Chapman back is great news for everyone involved with Arsenal Ladies both on and off the pitch.
Chapman is one of the most decorated players in the English game but, more than that, she brings an infectious enthusiasm that the General Manager insists can only be a positive thing for Laura Harvey's side as they look to overturn a 2-0 first-leg deficit against Rayo Vallecano on Thursday.
The sturdy midfielder re-joined from Chicago Red Stars in October and Akers, for one, is delighted to have her back.
"It's great for us, great for the Club and great for the girls that are around her," he told Arsenal.com.
"I think you miss someone like Kate because she's a bundle of energy all the time. To have her energy levels back and her enthusiasm will be a big lift for the team.
"I think Laura will be delighted to have her. We're delighted to have secured her signing, we discussed [the move] at length and she said she really wanted to come back.
"It took me long enough to sign her [initially from Charlton] and I was disappointed when she left but she left for a reason that she thought was going to better herself."
The England international made 103 appearances in her previous spell at the Club and this vast experience is something manager Harvey feels will no doubt benefit the younger members of the squad.
"Kate is in her mid to late 20s so she brings us that little bit of experience to mix in with the youth we've brought in. I think that's massive for where we want to go and what we want to achieve.
"You need to have those young and enthusiastic players but if you can have that bit of experience to go with that it's priceless."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Another interesting claim about Petraeus and Broadwell
posted at 10:13 am on November 10, 2012 by Allahpundit
Ed's got a smart post that asks several good questions coming up on the main page in a few hours, and I want to be careful not to preempt it. So let me present this without comment and ask you to bear it in mind when reading his:
Official tells me sevrl people who knew Petraeus got anonymous harassing emails. So investigation started. Emails then traced to Broadwell.
— Martha Raddatz (@MarthaRaddatz) November 10, 2012
Update: Little bit more from Fox News:
The [FBI] was alerted that biographer Paula Broadwell, with whom Petraeus had the affair, may have had access to his personal email account.
The investigation began when someone reported suspicious emails allegedly from Broadwell to the FBI. The agency then determined that she allegedly had emailed a number of government employees. The FBI was at one point trying to determine whether any of the employees were being stalked, sources told Fox News…
Source said the FBI investigation ended when the agency determined no criminal acts had been committed.
The only way she could have had access to his personal e-mail account without committing a criminal act is if he had let her access it, no? Talk about a lapse in judgment. And why was she sending weird e-mails to other government employees? Did she suspect him of having other affairs? Or did she feel scorned and started badmouthing him to his confidants as retaliation?
Update: Wow:
Petraeus himself was so alarmed by her behavior that he dropped a dime on her?
Update: Now I'm really confused:
At some point after Petraeus was sworn in as CIA director on Sept. 6, 2011, the woman broke up with him. However, Petraeus continued to pursue her, sending her thousands of emails over the last several months, raising even more questions about his judgment.
If Petraeus was the one pursuing her, why was the FBI investigating her for possible stalking of other government employees?
What an unbelievable mess.

|sure thing, once again, i really appreciate all the help. thanks. It will be a while before i get it all done, i still gotta get some more parts and such. But i guarantee one thing, ive sure learned alot off this site. Thanks again and ill keep ya posted.
good luck
Keep us posted as to your progress.
I think they told you to use 14 deg because they assume you are using stock GM HEI. There is no adjustable stop. The 14 deg static plus stock HEI stop of 21 deg is 35 deg total. The stock HEI would require 17 deg of static to hit 38 deg of total.
You could also try the 25 deg silver stop and 13 deg of static for 38 deg total. This would be in the parameters of the carb manufacturers suggestion.
Do not use the blue stop or you will be back in stock GM HEI territory. Use the red or silver.
Too much time causes engine to run hotter. That's why I prefer 10 deg of static time. My car runs hot.
Detonation is a rattling noise, also known as ping. Sounds like your timing chain is rattling. Mostly noticeable going uphill. Very hard on the engine.
|Its a Barry grant speed demon. It came with an application guide giving what size engines to use each carb with, what duration cams each carburetor is rated for, what transmission to use it for. And it gives the recommended initial timing setting. I havent even built the motor yet, im just kindof accumulating parts, and getting some advice. If it starts running hot, is that a sign of detonation? How can ya tell if youve got detonation problems. Ive tried and tried to tell, but every time i try to advance the timing real high on my truck, it just starts cutting out and missing around 3000 rpm, but i never can hear any pinging or anything. Sorry, im kinda turning this into an engine thread more than an electrical thread but thanks again for any advice.
If you start running hot. Move timing back and change stops.
I never had a carb manufacturer tell me where to set timing or I never noticed it anyway. What carb you have?
|THanks greatly guys. The carburetor im running says to set initial timing between 14 and 16. so ill probably use one of the other stop bushings. Ill just have to see what the recommended total advance is for that cam. I doubt ill be running enough vacuum to work the vacuum advance completely. ill just have to work with it all when i get to that point. Thanks again for all the help.
Vacuum advance
It took me almost an hour but I read every posting and article that you suggested. The distributor can go up to 51 deg but not on a running engine. The vacuum loss retards the timing back to mechanical total.
14 initial + 21 centrifugal + 16 Crane adjustable vacuum advance with EGR = 51 total.
I understand that you set your distributor by it's maximum advance but I don't know why. According to these postings. If we were running at 38 deg total and both open up our throttles, you would drop to 35 deg and I would stay at 38 deg. I would be producing more HP.
Combining the 12 degrees of initial advance with about 8 degrees from the centrifugal advance and then adding 20 degrees from the vacuum can when operating at low throttle settings is just too much.. 40 degrees of total advance will probably cause pinging or even detonation.. That would be bad.
At 46 deg you would be on the next cylinder. That would be real bad.
Vacuum advance has absolutely nothing to do with total timing or performance, as when the throttle is opened, manifold vacuum drops essentially to zero, and the vacuum advance drops out entirely; it has no part in the "total timing" equation.
I disagree with the statement of seeing 50º advance if you were going down the highway, (10º initial, 20º - 25º mechanical and 15º from the vacuum) you stated elsewhere when the mechanical advance kicks in the vacuum is not adding anything.
I also disagree with seeing 50 deg of advance.
Under high load, WOT, performance conditions there is almost no manifold vacuum so the vacuum advance does nothing.
So if at say 2500 RPM, your total initial and centrifical advance is 32 degrees,and you are pulling a total of say, 36 with vacuum advance, when you start stepping down on the throttle, the vacuum advance will retard in relation to the loss of vacuum signal, to the point where, the 4 degrees of vacuum advance disappears, if enough vacuum signal is lost.
I guess everyone tunes their engine to fire on the wrong cylinder then.
HERE is the proof of what I was saying. Read the whole thread. I stand by what I stated. It is written in many articles. You need an adjustable vacuum advance to ensure you are not going over the limit of 48-52 degrees.
HERE is another article. I would not take the initial/mechanical settings as gospel, you still need to see what you can get away with, but your total (initial + mechanical) should be between 34-? degrees, the most your engine likes without detonation. The point of this article is the total as a whole (initial+mechanical+vacuum) should not be more than 50-51, and why you need so much. Just be sure to test to what is best for your application
There are a ton of threads on this board to back up what I stated, as well as many articles written in magazines, the net, etc. Just take a look. I run my setup with 52 degrees of complete timing, not a hiccup of detonation at all, but again, that is my setup.
My set up
There are 360 degrees in a circle. There are 8 cylinders leaving 45 degrees between each cylinder. If you put 48 to 52 degrees of time in the motor you will be firing on the wrong cylinder.
I used the red bushing. It stops at 28 degrees.
I used the light silver and light blue springs. Advance comes in at 1300 rpm and is all the way in at 3200 rpm.
Disconnect vacuum advance. Set time at 10 degrees at 1000 rpm. The 28 degree stop with 10 degrees static will give you a total of 38 degrees. Reconnect vacuum advance and set idle to 800 rpm.
I found that if you use the 2 light silver springs the advance will come in around 800 rpm. I found that the engine would stay advanced at red lights and idle at 1200 rpm. I would have to shut the motor off and restart it to get weights to recoil back to 800 rpm.
Leave the vacuum advance connected. Later if you decide to buy a Digital 6 plus Multi Spark box, you can lock out the vacuum and mechanical advance and use the retard option on the box.
The rule of thumb is normally to START at 34 degrees (initial and Mechanical) all in by 3000 rpm. If you can you go more before detonation, great. 34 degrees is a good starting point. Do all of your testing with the vacuum advance disconnected.
Once that is done, then if you have an adjustable vacuum advance, START with adjusting to 48 degrees of total advance (initial, mechanical, and vacuum) and try it. If any detonation, back down, if none, then move up, but to no more than 52 degrees. You just have to test and find out what is best for your combo.
mechanical advance settings??
I just bought an MSD HEI distributor and it comes with several mechanical advance springs and bushings. I'm wondering which setting to use to get the best performance. I will be running an XE284 cam with 240 at .050 duration. 10.5. 1 compression and 93 octane gasoline with aluminum AFR heads. At what rpm should i have the timing fully advanced? its adjustable from about 2800 to 5500 rpm. Also, would i get better performance if i locked out the vacuum advance or should i leave it on? thanks for any suggestions

I'm a 30 year old Indian citizen and have been working as an English Language trainer across several corporate companies for two years in India. I have a bachelor's degree in business management and I have decided to enter the teaching profession. However career decisions aren't always easy and the more you think the more confusing it seems to get. I'm thinking of the following options:
1. Considering that I'm a non-native speaker, do you think it's a good idea to do your CELTA course in the country where you'd like to teach, in this case Turkey. I'm aware that there are CELTA courses offered in India as well, and if I were to do it here, then it doesn't work out to be quite as expensive considering traveling and living costs and there being absolutely no difference in the legitimacy or the methodology of the course.
On the other hand, I feel doing the CELTA course in Turkey would give me the opportunity to build up a network and possibly meet prospective employers in person, considering the problems non-native speakers face in sorting out a work permit. In addition, I would be more familiar with the country besides having a great holiday as well.
2. In addition, I'm assuming that it's usually difficult to arrange work permits particularly for a non-native speaker, which makes it even more confusing. I'm also thinking about BA in applied linguistics in Canada, Australia or NZ, considering that these countries are relatively easy to migrate to and acquire citizenship, however it's a long-winded approach.
Does this make any difference at all? What do you think is practical? I still can't seem to make up my mind. I'd appreciate any advice or suggestions. Thanks very much for your help.

AUSTIN, Texas -- Whole Foods Market announced that it is on track to stop selling all red-rated swordfish and tuna at its seafood counters nationwide by this Earth Day, April 22.
Last September, Whole Foods Market announced this deadline for sourcing swordfish and tuna more sustainably as part of a larger initiative to move toward fully-sustainable seafood departments. The latest addition to Whole Foods Market's seafood sustainability initiative provides shoppers with transparent information about the sustainability status of non-MSC certified, wild-caught seafood and features color-coded, science-based sustainability ratings for wild-caught seafood created by partners Blue Ocean Institute and Monterey Bay Aquarium.
"The sustainability status information has opened a terrific dialogue at the seafood counter. Shoppers are flexing their buying power to prompt change and help reverse trends of overfishing, exploitation and depletion in so many fisheries," said David Pilat, Whole Foods Market global seafood coordinator. "Whole Foods Market is proud of our partnerships with Blue Ocean Institute, Monterey Bay Aquarium, and with our shoppers, buyers, fishermen and fishery managers. We are thrilled to have found fisheries that can provide better environmental choices to support the ecological health of our oceans and the abundance of marine life for generations to come."
Remaining red-rated wild-caught seafood will be phased out of Whole Foods Market stores by Earth Day 2012 with the exception of Atlantic cod and sole, which will have an extension until Earth Day 2013.

Alcoholism is a severe problem, which can make a person's life miserable and also make the society detest him. The aim of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence or staying away from alcohol use. The treatment of alcoholism can only begin when an alcoholic accepts the problem and realizes that he must get rid of the habit for his own good and the good of his loved ones.
There are three main stages in the treatment of alcoholism:
- Detoxification: Detoxification is the first step required after a person stops using alcohol. The detox phase may include seizures, hallucinations and delirium tremens. The patient must be kept under proper observation.
- Rehabilitation: This step includes proper counseling and medications to provide the person with skills and motivation to remain sober. This can be done by making him an inpatient or outpatient, depending on the condition of the patient.
- Maintaining sobriety: This is the most important step where a person's self-will is tested. He needs to stay away from alcohol after getting out of rehabilitation for which he requires support. Meetings conducted by the Alcoholic Anonymous should be attended regularly by a recovering alcoholic.
For people in the early stage of alcoholism, discontinuing alcohol may cause several withdrawal symptoms such as poor sleep and anxiety. For long term alcoholics, severe withdrawal symptoms are experienced, which include shaking of the body, spasms, hallucinations and panic.
Several medicines may be required in the recovery period of an alcoholic.
Anti-anxiety medicines such as benzodiazepines are used for treating withdrawal symptoms like poor sleep. The medicines are usually used in the detoxification period. After this phase, they are discontinued.
For maintaining sobriety and to abstain from alcohol, several medicines are given to recovering alcoholics. A drug known as disulfiram is used after the completion of the detox period. This medicine reacts with alcohol metabolism and causes a person to vomit, become confused, have blurry vision and experience difficulties in breathing after consuming alcohol.
A medicine called naltrexone may be used for reducing alcohol craving. It can be prescribed even when a person drinks. It is given in the form of an injection. Antidepressants are also given to patients to reduce anxiety and depression.
Other ways to deal with alcoholism:
Several other instructions must be strictly followed by a recovering alcoholic to avoid relapse. They are as follows:
- People and places related to drinking should be avoided, and a person should make new nonalcoholic friends.
- Support groups and AA meeting must be attended regularly for motivation.
- Dependence on alcohol should be eliminated by starting different activities and getting involved in things.
Alcoholism is a severe problem, which may lead to death in case of extremities. Alcoholism can ruin a person's life, and proper measures must be taken to eliminate alcoholism.
If you had to choose between living a life of restrictions and a life of freedom, you'd choose the latter right? This is a decision most patients have to take when diagnosed with heart disease. However, thanks to medical advancements such as the pacemaker, they get to choose a life of freedom too, just like you.
In simple terms, a pacemaker is a tiny device helps people with irregular heart rhythms to quite effectively, maintain the 'pace' of their normal lifestyle. It is best suited for patients suffering from arrhythmias or the abnormal beating of the heart and heart block as well. As a matter of fact, for many people who have had a pacemaker fitted, things such as fainting, dizziness and other undesirable symptoms which have been known to be part and parcel of arrhythmias have become a thing of the past.
How it Works?
A pacemaker provides for the regular beating of the heart by providing electrical impulses which have a low intensity to the heart so as to induce it to beat in a normal manner. It is a small device which is composed of a battery whose energy works to power a computerized generator and a small albeit intricate system of wires attached to sensors, which are alternatively known as electrodes which observe the functioning of the heart.
For those who are planning to have a pacemaker implanted, it would be reassuring to know that there is a lot of due diligence which is a part of installing a pacemaker. The minor surgery which is required for it to be installed is completed in the span of a few hours.
It is to be noted that even after the installation is complete, a patient will have a day or so spent under the careful and watchful observation of the doctor and nurses so as to make sure that the pacemaker is functioning all but perfectly.
Post Op. Care:
There is a short period of recovery following which a person can resume his or her normal activities. But just as the pacemaker goes a long way in making its wearer's life easier, the wearer has a few responsibilities but there needs to be minimal concern with respect to its maintenance.
The batteries of pacemakers last about six to seven years, and for some pacemakers which are not that active, the battery need not be replaced till about fifteen years after the date of implantation.
Another precaution patients with patients need to take is that they stay out of zones of high magnetic energy, especially for sustained periods.
Besides these minor safety measures there are tremendous benefits of installing a pacemaker. It is truly life changing in every sense of the term. It helps you live life with a dose of renewed vigour, allowing you to indulge without regret!

The wrist is one of the most common areas that can go through a fracture or an injury. This is especially true for patients over the age of 65 years. There are many kinds of fractures, including simple or closed fractures, as well as compound or open fractures and comminuted or greenstick fractures. Hairline fractures are considered as the most common kind of fracture, and can be easily detected in an x-Ray. While it is easy for children to recover from a fracture, it is that much more difficult for the elderly to recover from one.
Read on to know the various ways in which the elderly can recover from a hand fracture.
- Time and trauma: Usually, an adult will take six to eight weeks to recover from a fracture completely. Children take almost half the time to recover as their bones are more tender and willing to fuse back together in lesser time, which is not always possible for more mature bones. Also, the elderly experience more trauma when it comes to a fracture and broken bones. Further, these individuals are already a part of a high risk group when it comes to such fractures due to problems with vision, gait and even the bone density.
- Physiotherapy: This is one of the most important parts of the treatment that elderly people have to follow after a hand fracture. This can help them in restoring normal mobility in the hand and wrist eventually, with regular practice. Physiotherapy must be practiced under the guidance of a trained expert, and thereafter, the exercises can be continued at home on a regular basis. These exercises will help in restoring the strength of the hand as well as the wrist.
- Changes in the hand: The knuckles and wrists may look different after a fracture. This depends on the kind of injury and fracture that has been sustained by the patient. The different types of hand fractures can occur on the knuckles or right below them, in the shaft of the main bone, at the base of the bone, on the wrist, and also with a dislocation of the bone and wrist. These kinds of changes should be referred to an orthopaedic surgeon who can help by inserting pins and braces to repair the fracture and bring the hand back to normal.
- Medication and self care: It is important to keep your hand above the heart level at all times during the recovery process. Also, an ice pack can help in stemming the pain. Further, you can wear a splint and take pain relief medication as prescribed by your doctor, in keeping with any other ailments you may be suffering from.

Man on the Move reader, NYC local and pro snapper Tom Olesnevich spotted this rare-to-the-U.S. R33 Skyline GT-R on Houston between Ludlow and Orchard. The Skyline GT-R, also known as Godzilla, is among the most iconic sports cars to ever come out of the Land of the Rising Sun. Mainly because it offered up Ferrari levels of performance for a lot less coin. Seeing one on these shores is not exactly an everyday occurrence considering they were never sold here. You're actually looking at one of a handful of grey market examples that was imported and adapted for use in the U.S. It's quite the scandal in case you're interested in reading up on the controversy surrounding their importation.
Thanks Tom!

Micky-D's is 100% terrible. Have you seen the documentary called Super Size It? The sugar content in the salads is unbelievable and there were only I think 2 items on the menu that did not contain added sugar with one being coffee. Even the fries have sugar added.
Speakin of hotdogs......... :) Nathans are WONDERFUL!!!..They cost a little more, but they taste GRRRREAT!your friend,john
That the coated chicken breast. Here's the grilled breast filet info:Grilled Chicken Breast FiletChicken breast filets with rib meat, water, seasoning (salt, sugar, food starch-modified, maltodextrin, spices, dextrose, autolyzed yeast extract, hydrolyzed [corn gluten, soy, wheat gluten] proteins, garlic powder, paprika, chicken fat, chicken broth, natural flavors (plant and animal source), caramel color, polysorbate 80, xanthan gum, onion powder, extractives of paprika), modified potato starch, and sodium phosphates. Like I said, not as good as what you can make at home, but it is fast when you're on the run. As for McDonald's being evil, I don't know about that. I had this word in my vocabulary when I was raising my children, it was 'No', and they heard it frequently. If more parents learned the concept there wouldn't be any reason to fear McDonalds.
... how the hell do you get broth in it?
caramel colour, thats good too, I wonder what that is made of? Modified potato starch? dont they make plates out of that now? geeze, I reckon yours is worse than ours. Natural flavours from plant and animal source? you gotta be kidding. Your site doesnt list known additives by a searchable number like ours does, so they must be hiding more.Its all poison. Go to the greasy joes instead and help small business and your health.

Hello All,
My name's Steven, at the moment I've got a TK and a Judge Dredd costume.
I keep admiring the Fett family at troops. It's a cool costume for a couple of bad-boy characters. I think it's probably too complex for me at the moment. I troop with a couple of guys who've got some really nice examples and I've seen how much time and money they've lavished on them.
However, I've made the 'mistake' of buying a cool Jango lid for my son and now I'm going to go and have to do the whole thing!
It'll be a long running project. I'll sort out the lid first and get him a 'cheap' deluxe costume to keep him going while I gradually improve and replace it.
I should have it finished just in time for him to get bored of it.
I probably won't be posting for a while as I see there is a ton of questions already answered and it will take me a while to get through them.

Arsenal showed their nerve to see off Everton at Goodison Park on Wednesday, according to Aaron Ramsey.
Thomas Vermaelen's early header ensured Arsène Wenger's side took home all three points to climb above Tottenham in the Premier League table.
Ramsey started his first game since mid-February following his recovery from an ankle injury and praised the team's attitude on a testing night against David Moyes' team.
"It was great, we battled well and it came off," Ramsey told Arsenal Player. "The back four did a wonderful job and kept a good line. As a team I think we kept our composure and looked very solid so overall we are delighted with the win and hopefully we can keep it going.
"Overall I thought we did very well in the first half an hour and created a few opportunities. Then the crowd started to get behind them and they started to get a few tackles in.
"It was always going to be a tough place to come and they proved that in the end. But we dealt with it really well and I think we deserved the points in the end.
"The results definitely went our way on the night and we are carrying on our good form of late. Hopefully we can just continue to do this now until the end of the season.
"We have proved what we are capable of achieving and how motivated we are to finish third. We are definitely doing that at the moment but we are going about our own business and hopefully we can continue it."

Good Day,
So, brand new to the board and the whole costuming thing.
Currently planning 2x Mandalorians (one custom, one Boba for the wife) to be started in a few months (I'm away from home for work at the moment), currently looking at/for materials, armor, props, et cetera.
And leading into my question:
For my custom, I'm thinking of full-coverage leg armor, as opposed to the frontal coverage that seems to be most popular. Also looking for a codpiece that'll cover front and back... might look into Stormtrooper parts or something of the like for my lower.
And for the actual question..
Sintra, which seems to be the most popular/affordable material in use. How much punishment can it be expected to take? Say I were wearing full leg and butt armor, would sitting on it be likely to damage it (I'm not a heavy guy at around 150, but I'm still the weight of, well, a dude)?
If sintra isn't workable for that manner of use, is there anyone around that makes more durable (metal of some sort, assumedly) armor bits? Haven't seen any on the boards, and eBay seems pretty useless unless I want to go medieval.

Paradisius Dei, an organization of lay Catholics dedicated to finding God in the midst of everyday life, has brought a pilot program titled the Bottom of The Cup to the University of St. Thomas campus this Lent.
Beginning at 12:15 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 14 in Jones Hall, the Bottom of the Cup seeks to form a bridge between modern academia and the Church by integrating faith and reason as it relates to the mystery of the human person. The seven week series is built around interactive panel discussions investigating major issues facing college students today. Thirty speakers representing secular science, the Church and popular culture will share testimonies about sexuality and the human person. Students in attendance will have computers and electronic devices to participate in real-time polls.
The series takes its name from 1932 Nobel Laureate Werner Heisenber's quote, "The first swallow from the cup of natural sciences makes atheists, but at the bottom of the cup God is waiting." The sessions will be filmed and Paradisius Dei has plans to expand the program in the near future.
The weekly topics include: Feb. 14, Pornography - Naked and Unashamed, testimony about the reality of pornography from producers, consumers and medical experts; Feb. 21, Can a Woman Have Sex Like a Man?, medical evidence about the real and lasting physical and emotional consequences of the "hookup culture" on college students; Feb. 28, Little Less Than a God, testimony about man as a spiritual being and his ability to become the manifestation of God the Father; March 6, Why Can't a Woman be More Like a Man?, testimony about the power of love and woman's unique ability to call forth a resurrection whenever a person has fallen; March 20, What's Love Got to do with it?, a noble vision of the beauty of the spousal embrace based upon a contemplative reading of Pope John Paul II's Theology of the Body; March 27, The End of Love?, real answers to the breakdown of marriage and the family in modern culture, including an honest assessment on the impact to larger culture; and April 3, A Vision of Hope, an inspiring vision of the ability of college students to become the foundation for a new springtime for the Church and greater society.
The event is free and open to UST students, faculty and staff. Free Chick-Fil-A will be provided for the first 250 students.

Hello all! :)
I've been contemplating a ROTJ Fett or even a custom one for a few years and have visited TDH many times during that span. After not having a 'good' costume for numerous events, I'm ready to start building one. The ones you can buy (Rubies) seem like a real joke, and there doesn't seem to be anyone that sells a decent Fett costume. I'm hoping you guys can point me in the right direction. There's a ton of information on this site, and it's been tough to get a handle on what I need to do.
Here's my situation... I'm currently working full time and volunteering for 2 NPO's. I don't have a ton of time, so if there's some reasonable parts to buy that would be great. I don't care too much about the cost as long as it's good quality; I'd like to have it last a while. I'm also ok letting someone build a full costume for me even though that will be a lot of money, but I'm not sure if anyone does that on this site.
Helmet and jetpack have me worried the most by far. :(
I've seen some real nice helmets like this one: http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/f31/g...-thread-38956/.

At a hastily called press conference by the Angel Gabriel, two former Republican stalwarts announced to the shocked members of the media they were resigning from the Republican Party. Mr. Abraham Lincoln said he was shocked at the failure of current day Republicans to stand for moral principles and termed their current leaders as devoid in any ideas other than reducing taxes and giving special breaks to the wealthy. "What has become of the Republican Party which once led the nation in the fight to ensure all men were created equal. As I listen to Ron Paul or George Bush or this creature of the night, Rush Limbaugh, there only concern is what benefits the wealthy members of our society. I am amazed that a Republican can sanction torture and abuse of prisoners! We fought a war in which 500,000 died, not 3,000, but never once did any military leader come to me urging torture. Shocking!"
Former President Theodore Roosevelt expressed anger that his party has become the ally of the wealthy. "I broke up the trusts. I intervened to ensure coal miners got their rights. I made certain the malefactors of wealth understood the American government was not their servant. My goal was to have a strong federal government that regulated business to ensure there was an even playing field for all who sought to employ their talents in the quest to develop our economy."
Mr. Roosevelt was quite upset at the lack of rallying around the president in a time of crisis. "Our nation's economy is in serious crisis and not a single Republican member of Congress will work with their Democratic colleagues!! Where is the spirit of patriotism?" He announced his support for the Obama program of peace in the Middle East and acting carefully to avoid creating problems in Iran. "In the early 1900s, when the San Francisco School Board announced they were segregating Japanese children, I summoned that damn fool mayor and told him bluntly the United States wanted to have peaceful relations with Japan. After expressions of Japanese anger, I calmed things down. Yes, Mr. Obama is correct. Only employ a nation's power as the last, not the first, resort."
The Angel Gabriel will allow current Republican leaders in respond to these comments.

Not sure which I should go with once I get the money. I'm guessing that 3DS XL has a bigger screen? Does the 2DS and 3DS have the same size screen? The prices are pretty different, too. $130 for a 2DS, $160 for a 3DS, and $200 for a 3DS XL.
I'm thinking of getting one to play the harvest moon and pokemon games. Not really sure what else is available for it.

Limbaugh falsely suggested that Katrina tax relief would be directed toward those who don't pay taxes
On the September 21 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, Rush Limbaugh falsely claimed that "[m]any of those getting tax cuts in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina will not have paid any taxes at all." In fact, evidence suggests that only $125 million of the $6.1 billion Katrina Emergency Tax Relief Act of 2005 will go directly to individuals who do not pay income taxes. Further, most -- if not all -- individuals who do not pay income taxes still pay Social Security payroll taxes and sales taxes.
Limbaugh made the comment in the context of criticizing an Associated Press article [1] headlined "Tax Breaks for Katrina May Aid Rich More," which reported that "some elements of the tax assistance [for Hurricane Katrina victims] would do more for wealthier taxpayers because many lower income individuals and families pay little tax." Limbaugh took issue with the article's suggestion that the bill disproportionately benefits the wealthy. But because the bill largely provides tax relief, it does, in fact, disproportionately benefit those who pay more taxes.
A Congressional Research Service (CRS) study [2] of the tax relief legislation (H.R. 3768 [3], the Katrina Emergency Tax Relief Act of 2005) recently passed by both houses of Congress states [4] that "[s]ince the lowest income groups do not pay income taxes, only measures directed at earned income tax credits [5] or refundable child tax credits [6] are likely to reach these individuals." Similarly, the report, which was cited in the AP article, summarized [7] that "[I]n many cases [the emergency tax relief] will be specifically focused on higher income individuals."
In conjunction with the CRS analysis, a breakdown [8] by the congressional Joint Committee on Taxation of the estimated revenue effects of the tax relief bill reveals the fallacy in Limbaugh's suggestion that much of the tax relief proposed for the victims of Katrina would go to those who "will not have paid any taxes at all." The figures show that the "measures directed at earned income tax credits or refundable child credits" (H.R. 3768 [9], section 406) account for only $125 million of the cost of the $6.1 billion bill, although some other provisions such as incentives for charitable giving and volunteerism could indirectly benefit individuals who do not pay income taxes.
Moreover, many of those who do not pay income taxes but qualify for relief under the earned income tax credit and child credit provisions do in fact pay taxes, in the form of Social Security payroll taxes. As Media Matters for America has previously documented [10], although many Americans (37.2 percent of total tax units -- single people or married couples) do not pay income taxes, the vast majority pay Social Security payroll taxes. And in most states, people pay sales tax [11] as well. The majority of low-income individuals who pay no income tax, or who do not file at all, are subject to one or both of these taxes.
From the September 21 broadcast of The Rush Limbaugh Show:
LIMBAUGH: From the Associated Press, Mary Dalrymple doing the honors of writing this story. "House and Senate tax writers agreed yesterday to a package of tax breaks designed to help Hurricane Katrina victims recoup their losses and access needed cash. The Congressional Research Service, an office that provides lawmakers with nonpartisan legislative analysis, said some of those tax breaks could do more for higher income survivors than for the neediest."
Yes. People, they're going to get tax breaks for Katrina. It may help the rich more. The rich may benefit more from taxes and tax cuts that result from Hurricane Katrina. We should rethink this, ladies and gentlemen. Even though the rich were wiped out too, they still may benefit more. I will guarantee you this, ladies and gentlemen: Many of those getting tax cuts in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina will not have paid any taxes at all. The people who pay taxes today are primarily the upper middle class, the rich, whatever you're going to call them, and the filthy wealthy.

Obama Attends Pro-Occupy Church
President Obama and the First Family attended a Washington, D.C. church that supports the Occupy Wall Street movement.
The president, who rarely attends church, was visiting Zion Baptist Church, a 146-year-old congregation in the nation's capital. According to the church, their mission is to "enlist sinners, educate students, empower the suffering, encourage the saints, exalt our Savior."
The worship program included an appeal to help the Occupy D.C. movement, according to the White House pool report.
They pleaded for donations of "new and gently used warm blankets, sleeping bags, hand and feet warmers."
The Occupy D.C. movement includes about 150 protesters encamped in McPherson Square. The Washington Post reported that critics of the occupation zone describe it as a "rat-infested, messy eyesore of any encampment."
Prior to President Obama's arrival at Zion Baptist Church, Rev. Keith Byrd addressed the congregation.
"They are coming to worship. Let the church say amen," he said according to an account published by the Washington Post.
The choir then sang "Lord, You Are Good" as the president entered the sanctuary, according to the White House pool report.
For the record, church members were not waving palm branches.
As for the Occupy D.C. collections — maybe they should add Febreeze and Raid to the list?

Wayne Law to Host 'Women in the Law' Panel, Sept. 3
DETROIT (Aug. 10, 2009) – Being successful in law school and in one's legal career is no easy feat. Individuals must be focused, determined and dedicated to the study of law – and they must succeed in balancing the demands of their personal lives as well. Fortunately, Wayne State University Law School students and alumni can find a great deal of support.
The Wayne Law Career Services Office and the Wayne Law Alumni Association are pleased to sponsor an upcoming panel discussion for women pursuing legal careers. "Women in the Law," which will offer a candid discussion about issues facing women lawyers, will be held from 12:15 – 1:15 p.m. on Sept. 3, 2009, in the Law School's Spencer M. Partrich Auditorium.
Panelists will include professional women from various career backgrounds such as business, government and law. The panel will address finding a work/life balance, maternity leave, finding a mentor, being a leader, dealing with improper interview questions and more.
"I have a great support network now and I feel that this kind of support and insight would have been really helpful as a student," said Kim Yapchai, event organizer and corporate counsel with Retail/Wholesale Group. "Students, alumni and friends will benefit from hearing the different viewpoints of people who have been through it."
This panel is free and open to the public, and parking is available in Structure #1 across from the Law School, on Palmer Street (corner of Cass) for $3.50. Please contact Robin Johnson at (313) 577-3949 or send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com with any questions.

Literally 5 minutes ago I was lying in bed, watching Criminal Minds and spontaneously began brainstorming what my idea of an amazing MMO would turn out to be. Being a fan of the good ol' Medieval and early, early American times, my idea went something like this:
It's in the early 1620s, Pilgrims have landed a few years ago but a bustling society has yet to be made. You have arrived on a British ship with a few hundred other people, some ill, some near death and the lucky are in fine condition. You have been given your rations of food and a minimal amount of equipment to survive and make your own home. Once the ship captain sets you free, the land is yours to conquer.
You begin in a small town with the basics: a general store to barter with, a small inn that sells produce and meat, and a housing area that currently has a meager 40-50 log cabins. The docks are packed with people departing and arriving; barrels, nets, crates and fishing equipment are randomly placed all along the area.
The supplies given were some tattered clothes, a small some of cash, and a dull blade.
-Completely open-world, minimal quests (the quests are essentially tasks given by citizens that are 100% optional).
-The wilderness contains ravaging wildlife, unknown plants, and riches to be discovered.
-Build a house, log by log in any style or shape you desire, given that you have the materials.
-As time progresses, the world evolves at a specific rate (10x, 20x, 50x, etc. real time).
-Custom servers can be hosted at ease, each being randomly generated.
-Barter and trade with (actually intelligent) AI using coin, minerals, resources or possessions.
-The game world is to scale with the actual U.S. providing almost endless exploration.
-Tame wild beasts (not so easy).
-Grow your own crops in your claimed plot of land, raise farm animals, produce milk, eggs, etc.
-A working economy that's (close to) factually based off the U.S. during that time in real life and changes with time.
-A horse carrier/post boy system that provides randomly generated news, participate in elections, run for mayor of your own town.
-Communicate with Indians by either offering peace or death.
-Day/Night cycle.
-All civilians are killable, shops rob(bable?) but a bounty will be placed on your head that increases in popularity and price the more crimes you commit.
-(adding more soon)
Plants in the wild can either be harmful or beneficial. Newly discovered areas, plants, minerals, animals are automatically written down in your "notebook" in order to keep track of progress.
This is currently all I could think of but once my brain starts to function properly again I'll try to add more that I feel would be a great addition.
Feel free to add ideas, criticize something or come up with an ideal MMO of your own! It doesn't exactly have to be currently reasonable, it just has to appeal to your tastes.

My dad is a big fan of this caliber and already has several Mausers for it. And brass. :)
We are looking at an AK build in this caliber. According to the small amount of data I can find, the chamber pressure for the 6.5x55 is up to around 46,000 CUP/51,000 PSI. That is around the .308 pressures.
I'm thinking a quick and easy conversion will consist of:
- Saiga .308 conversion $600
- New barrel $250
- COmpliance parts $100?
- Magazine?
The magazine is the stickler on this. Since the cartridge is slightly longer than .308, I am not sure if the .308 magazine will work. I am looking at some different caliber surplus mags in case we need to do a complete magazine conversion. Any thoughts or shortcuts anyone can think of?
