At 36, Michael White looks as young as his players. He's not really one to intimidate with his sideline demeanor.
But in the last three meetings, his Louisiana Tech team has been getting the best of Utah State. The Bulldogs have actually gotten the best of the WAC this season, carrying a perfect conference record into the final week before the WAC Tournament.
Looking down the roster, there aren't true blue-chippers. The shooting percentages are mediocre, and they are a good rebounding team, not a great one.
But Louisiana Tech's blueprint is like many teams in the WAC, and many other mid-major teams that are making an impact: defense first. White has shown through his team this year that defense can be the biggest factor for a successful team.
The Bulldogs are in the top 15 nationally in turnover margin, steals and defensive 3-point field-goal percentage. Although they have the No. 31-ranked scoring offense in the country, that is as much a reflection of their pace and ability to score off of the turnovers they generate.
If you look at the top half of the WAC, only Louisiana Tech has a top-100 scoring offense. But each other team including Denver, New Mexico State, UT-Arlington and Utah State is in the top 100 scoring defenses.
Kenpom.com lists four of the top five in the top 100 for adjusted defense, a reflection of the tactics it takes to win in this conference.
It makes a drawn-out sort of sense. When a new coach comes in, like White did two years ago, he doesn't have his recruits in yet. He's working with a set of talents that he has to either adjust to or make work to his own ends.
White, without a lot of skilled offensive players, went with defense as a rallying point, a fresh coat of paint to the program to add some energy and momentum.
This year, that investment paid off.
UT-Arlington is a similar brand of team, one with plenty of scoring threats but almost no one who is consistent. The Mavericks' defense has made up for some of their shortcomings on the offensive end. New Mexico State's and Denver's defenses are a product of their pacing, but their effort on that end also helps draw momentum for when they get the ball. In Utah State's case, it is shallow depth that has forced renewed emphasis on defense.
College basketball prognosticators have been somewhat flustered this year by a decrease in scoring. They've called for shorter play clocks and renewed commitment to offense.
If you need at least one reason why that might be, look at Louisiana Tech. Defense wins.

"The taste is part duck à l'orange, part mole, and part a sweet and sour stew that I remember my grandmother cooking for our family during the holidays," says chef Vitaly Paley of his superb meatballs. Paley first grinds a mixture of duck, prunes, house-cured and -smoked bacon, toasted bread crumbs and spices (star anise, cinnamon, red pepper flakes and wood-fire-dried oregano). The meatballs are roasted, then braised with prunes, carrots, dried pasilla chile, red wine, cream, sherry, brandy, charred onion and duck stock. The aromatic dish is finished with crispy orange gremolata. "The result is sweet, sour and spicy," says Paley. imperialpdx.com

"Recently moved so order these pretty address labels. Was very pleased with them. The labels I ordered are simple, elegant, modern, traditional but everyday useful. Delivery was very quick, arrived 3 days after I ordered. Will be ordering from Tiny Prints again in the near future."
"These labels came quickly and packaging was protected great. They were very easy to order , instructions were clear! Nice quality labels and was perfect for a New Home Gift!"
"I just moved to Florida so I thought this would be perfect for sending mail home.. and it is! It's a way for me to share Florida with everyone back at home."
"I ordered these and love them!! I bought some small brown bag paper envelopes and they go great on the back of the envelope. If you are considering these, I'd say go for it! Delivery was shorter than predicted also!!"
"These traditional return address labels are very elegant and have a touch of an era gone by. At first I thought the dark outer border would be too much and make the label look heavy, but half of the label stays with the paper, so the size is less thick. I really love these labels and will get some more for the Holidays"

text: I wouldn't put the deep back on. The last thing bees need in the winter is a larger volume hive than necessary. When mine are really looking too crammed after removing the supers, I will put a 2" or 3" spacer on top the brood box for a month or so. The nice thing about a frameless spacer box is a volume of 2" x 19" x 15" (or whatever you're running) will hold a LOT of bees since they can hang from the roof in big balls of bees. This time of year, bees that get stuck hanging outside the hive will end up going off to bee heaven prematurely as the weather gets cold and rainy. Yes, a 2" empty spacer violates bee space, but the bees aren't building comb this time of year in Michigan and probably not in Mass either. The spacer box also seems to allow the bees room to hang out and re-organize a bit before winter hits. Just an idea.We had a light frost last night. Winter is on it's way to you. :)

Ellis Paul
Based in Massachusetts, Paul has been called the quintessential Boston songwriter more than a few times and has garnered the recognition and awards to back up that claim, including a shelf full of Boston Music Awards. Since coming onto the scene in 1993 with his independent debut, Say Something, Paul hasn't slowed or weakened as a performer or a writer. Spending two-thirds of most years on the road has helped him perfect both crafts, with a lot of practice on-stage and a lot of people whose stories he retells in song. In fact, his 1994 album Stories proved enchanting enough to secure him a deal with Rounder Records and a national following of dedicated fans.
Over the years and albums, his songs have gotten more personal. He purposely turned the looking glass onto his own life for 1998's aptly titled Translucent Soul as he publicly worked through the pain of his divorce. Following hot on the heels of 1999's double-CD Live, the new millennium saw Paul's song "The World Ain't Slowing Down" featured in Me, Myself and Irene starring Jim Carrey. His eighth studio release, a collection of previously unreleased tracks called Sweet Mistakes, arrived in 2001, followed by Speed of Trees (2002), a two-disc career retrospective (2006), a children's record inspired by the birth of his second daughter called The Dragonfly Races (2008), and, finally, an all-new studio album, The Day After Everything Changed, in January 2010. In 2012, Paul released his second children's record, The Hero in You, which featured songs about Benjamin Franklin, Georgia O' Keefe, Rosa Parks, and Thomas Edison, and other notable Americans that Paul deemed heroic. ~ Kelly McCartney

Junior Cody Freeman netted the first postseason hat trick in the program's Division I history and senior netminder Tony Capobianco stopped all 31 shots he saw to lead the Canisius College hockey team to a 5-0 victory over Sacred Heart on Saturday night, completing a sweep in a best 2-of-3 Atlantic Hockey First Round series. The Griffs improve to 14-19-3 and advance to the league's quarterfinals, while the Pioneers conclude their season with a 12-24-0 record.
Freeman recorded his first career hat trick with his three tallies and the 14th overall in the program's Division I history. Capobianco added to his school record that he set last night with his eighth career shutout and his third in eight postseason starts.
Junior Braeden Rigney and sophomore Ralph Cuddemi also added goals for the Griffs in the winning effort.
"It took a total team effort tonight," said Canisius head coach Dave Smith. "It started with Tony Capobianco in goal and the defense set the tone with strong net-front play. Every goal is huge when it comes to the postseason but Cody Freeman's short-handed tally in the second really turned things in our favor tonight."
The Griffs opened the scoring 13:23 into the first period when Cuddemi netted his 11th goal of the season. On a rush, the sophomore fired a shot that bounced off the Sacred Heart goalie, over his shoulder and into the net. Senior Patrick Sullivan posted an assist on Cuddemi's tally and the Griffs never looked back.
Freeman registered his first goal of the night with his first career short-handed tally 4:59 into the second frame. The junior intercepted a Sacred Heart clearing pass and buried his opportunity top shelf for the 2-0 Canisius advantage.
The Griffs then extended their lead to three when Rigney scored his ninth goal of the season. Junior defender Logan Roe forced a Sacred Heart turnover in its own zone and fired the puck off the boards behind the net. The puck bounced right to Rigney and the junior knocked it in with an open look for the goal with 8:27 remaining in the second.
Freeman then added two tallies in the final frame to complete his first career hat trick. His second goal of the night was set up by good puck possession down low with linemates Kyle Gibbons and Sullivan with Freeman finishing from the low slot for the 4-0 advantage with 13:40 remaining.
The junior then netted his third of the night with 5:35 left in regulation, knocking in a rebound with assists going to senior Ben Danford and Gibbons. Freeman's 10th goal of the season was the final tally in the 5-0 Canisius victory.
Both teams finished the night with 31 shots but the Pioneers could not solve Capobianco in net during the weekend. Neither team was also able to score on the power play in seven chances for the Griffs and five for Sacred Heart.
Alex Vazzano took the loss in net for the Pioneers with 26 saves.
Canisius now awaits its opponent for a best 2-of-3 Atlantic Hockey Quarterfinal series on the road next weekend. If Robert Morris defeats Army on Sunday night, the Griffs travel to face Bentley. If the Black Knights earn the victory, Canisius will square off with Air Force in Colorado. The quarterfinal series is set to begin on Friday.
Game Notes: In eight career Atlantic Hockey Tournament games, Capobianco owns three shutouts with a perfect 8-0-0 record. He has also posted a 1.50 goals against average and a .961 save percentage … Freeman's hat trick was the first for the Griffs in 35 all-time Division I postseason games. A player had previously scored two goals in a game on 16 occasions for Canisius … With his two assists on the night, Gibbons now has 19 points in 12 career Atlantic Hockey Tournament games … Freeman now has nine goals in 10 Atlantic Hockey Tournament games during his career.

Incorporate MicrobeWorld's video podcast series Intimate Strangers: Unseen Life on Earth into high school or two-year college curriculum.
Links to lesson planning guides (pdf files) and corresponding video podcasts are below:
One of the basic requirements of evolution is variation in a population upon which selection can act. One of the sources of variation is mutation in DNA. These changes may or may not be reflected in the ensuing amino acid sequence of a protein. This exercise explores the additive effects of mutation on an amino acid sequence over several generations. The activity is also useful in that it addresses several of the components of Darwin's theory of evolution through natural selection.
We are reminded continually of the presence of microorganisms in our surroundings. News reports of tainted food due to microbial contamination of chicken, beef or spinach are prevalent. Strep throat, acne and various other bacterial infections are common occurrences that are familiar to our students. As consumers, we are enticed to buy facial scrubs, mouthwashes, soaps and cleaners that inhibit bacterial growth. How effective are these products in controlling bacteria? Where do bacteria normally live? What conditions do bacteria require to live and reproduce? These questions can be readily explored in classrooms with this experiment.
This activity simulates how a pathogen can spread among a population. Students will exchange paper with one another to simulate the epidemiology of tracking an infectious agent. After this activity, the students should have a better understanding of how infectious agents spread from person to person and ways to prevent outbreaks. It can be adapted to a variety of scenarios. For example, the infectious agent could be HIV or another pathogen that is spread by human contact.
Students will explore how scientists isolate deoxyribonucleic acid, DNA, from the strawberry. The activity provides the students with a hands-on approach to DNA isolation. They will learn how cells can be broken open and how the DNA can be separated from the rest of the cellular biological molecules. Although students may recognize DNA as being the genetic material and that it can be used in forensics to identify a killer, most are not exposed to what DNA looks like. This activity brings DNA to life!
These materials were originally presented during the American Society for Microbiology's symposium, "Discovering Microbes," at the National Association of Biology Teachers 2006 Professional Development Conference, October 11-14, in Albuquerque, NM.)

Notes: Stretch suits Jimenez just fine
Notes: Stretch suits Jimenez just fine
TUCSON, Ariz. -- It's hard to find Ubaldo Jimenez without a grin on his face. After Saturday's four scoreless innings against the Angels, the smile was even bigger than usual. Jimenez's joy came not only from the fact he picked up his first spring win of the year, but because he did so while improving on the one flaw that seemed to give him the most trouble in his last start -- keeping his control while pitching out of the stretch. "I was trying to go too fast [to home plate in Tuesday's loss to the Kansas City Royals]," said Jimenez, who pitched out of the stretch in three of his four innings Saturday with no problems.
He did have one hit batsmen and a wild pitch, but his performance would hardly be characterized as one with control issues. "I didn't think it was as rushed," Rockies pitching coach Bob Apodaca said of Jimenez's pitching with runners were on base. "He did a good job of varying his times and his looks without trying to be rushed to the plate. As the game unfolded from the first inning, every inning improved. He got ahead. I think he was 10 of 16 first-pitch strikes." On Tuesday, Jimenez allowed three Royals runners to steal a base and showed he had a problem locating the strike zone while pitching out of the stretch with runners on. On Saturday, he got out of the first, second and fourth innings with ease after runners reached base. In the third, Jimenez retired the side in order. Apodaca said Jimenez still needs to improve on putting batters away when he has two strikes on them, noting several Angels hitters prolonged at-bats with foul tips and taking pitches off the strike zone. Jimenez's ERA dropped from 9.00 to 3.86 with Saturday's outing.
Cook on schedule, Hirsh not: Apodaca said Saturday No. 2 starter Aaron Cook is back on schedule to make his next scheduled start on Wednesday at Tucson Electric Park against the White Sox.Soreness in Cook's arm forced the 29-year-old to be scratched from Friday's start against the Royals in Surprise, Ariz. Instead, Cook stayed in Tucson and went through one of his normal off-day routines and reported no pain. "That's his usual routine between starts is to play long toss and he'll have a side [session on Sunday]," Apodaca said. "He's right on schedule for his next start on [Wednesday]." Jason Hirsh, meanwhile, is shut down for a couple of days with arm soreness and will miss his second consecutive start on Sunday.

He played catch with Cook on Friday, but still felt pain in his arm, and while he doesn't think the injury is a serious one, there is no timetable for his return.Old reliable: Matt Herges is scheduled to see his fourth game action of the spring on Sunday against the Giants in Scottsdale. The 37-year-old reliever hasn't had stellar numbers this spring, but his preparedness for the season isn't a concern for Apodaca. "He's a pro," Apodaca said. "He knows what he needs to do -- pitch one inning, pitch two innings, come back a couple days later and he'll pitch an inning. You give him a day off and he's refreshed again. He's done this several Spring Trainings now, so he knows the amount of work he needs." A glimpse of the past: Scott Podsednik reached on a grounder to center field in the bottom of the third inning, then stole second base off Angels pitcher Nick Green, putting a runner in scoring position with no outs. Although the sequence didn't result in a run for the Rockies, it was a glimpse of what made Podsednik so dangerous with the White Sox from 2003-2006, when he averaged 53 stolen bases per season, including six stolen bases in Chicago's postseason run to the World Series in 2005. Saturday marked Podsednik's third stolen base in five spring games. He stole just 12 in 62 games with the White Sox in 2007. Up next: The Rockies travel to Scottsdale on Sunday to play the Giants at 2:05 p.m. MT. Franklin Morales is the scheduled starter after Hirsh was scratched with a sore shoulder. For the Giants, lefty Patrick Misch will see action for the fourth time this spring.

It is frequently difficult sometimes to ascertain exactly who is in charge of Iran due to the split between official government leaders and religious figures who also hold power. Several days ago, Vice President Esfandiar Rahim Mashaii expressed the view his nation had no quarrel with the people of Israel or of the United States as contrasted with disagreements with their governments. "Iran is friends with the Israeli people" although it opposes the Zionist regime, and he referred to the people of the United States as "one of the best nations in the world." The vice president emphasized, "Iran is friends with the American and Israel people. No nation in the world is our enemy, this is an honor."
His words caused the Majiis Speaker, Ali Larijani to blast these words as contrary to Iranian policy and urged diplomats of his nation to be careful when speaking on foreign policy issues. He emphasized, "people who live in Israel are either Palestinians or those who have occupied the region, with whom Iran is not friends." Larijani told Iranian diplomats, Americans were just like other countries and "we should neither belittle them nor over compliment them."
Between remarks made by President Ahmadinejad and his vice president and the speaker of the Iranian parliament it is difficult knowing what to believe is Iranian foreign policy.

This summer camp will let kids share grief, joy
By PAUL FEELY
New Hampshire Union Leader | June 15. 2013 10:24PM
"I'm so excited that they are bringing this to New Hampshire because it's such an important piece of going through the process of grief," said Lisa Cramb-Dudley of New Boston, whose daughter Meghan has attended Circle Camp in Maine the last five years. "It's hard enough for a parent, but as a kid to deal with all of the feelings and emotion, it's very difficult. It's important for them to have other kids to talk to, who when they say they know how you're feeling they really know how they're feeling."
"We also know the value of helping children talk about the losses in their lives," said Welch. "We bring them together so our campers can have summer days of childhood fun, meaning and bonding."
The camp features the "circle" on opening day, at which kids talk about their parent, and the "rock ceremony" on the last day, when they lay memorial stones, each with a message to the deceased parent, around a newly planted tree. There is also a scavenger hunt, an Olympics event and a talent show.
Spear added: "Most kids feel as though they don't know anyone who has lost a parent, and it makes them feel isolated and different from their peers. And that makes it hard to talk about it with other kids.
Meghan and Alyssa Cramb of New Boston lost their father, David, five years ago this weekend when he died of a heart attack during an annual road race in 2008.
Both girls - Meghan was 9, Alyssa 14 - were running the race with their dad when he collapsed. He was 47.
Cramb-Dudley said Meghan was receiving services from the Good Grief program of Home Health and Hospice in Merrimack when she was referred to Spear and the Circle Camp program.
"The first trip there, I left early because I got homesick really bad," said Meghan. "I came home on Wednesday. But even if you are scared at first, we all usually leave in tears because we don't want to go home."
Meghan said she appreciated the grief-related activities.
She noted one in which campers wrote messages to the parent they had lost, and the messages were weighted down, taken out onto a lake by boat and dropped into the water.
Cramb-Dudley has since remarried and remains in New Boston with her husband, Mark Dudley.
"They are both 'typical' teenagers in all aspects of their lives, but for the fact that they experienced and are ever aware of the loss of their dad," said Cramb-Dudley. "The peer connections they've made through Circle Camp are as integral to their well-being as family, friends and their communities. Maybe more so in some ways."
For referrals or more information, contact Lexy Heatley and Jennifer Maynard, co-directors, at firstname.lastname@example.com, or Cathy Spear, licensed social worker and director of camper services, at email@example.com.

Does anyone have an idea for a replica thats actual size 43" not a toy thats 3/4 scale. Cushmanpaintball sells one but Ive not heard anything good about them, DV said his mates had issues with their stuff. Airsoft is out of the question unless its broken and less then $150. I dont want to break the bank as I also need to get a few more things such as light sabers to add to this suit.

Kieran Gibbs admits Arsenal were not ruthless enough in Saturday's draw against Aston Villa.
The left back made his first start in seven weeks as Arsène Wenger's side were held to a goalless draw at Villa Park.
Gibbs says he was happy to be back in the team after recent injury troubles but feels that the team lacked its usual conviction at key moments.
"It's strange because their [Aston Villa] results don't reflect their performances," said Gibbs. "We saw them against Man United here, and they were in the lead for quite a lot of the game. We know it's always difficult to come to Villa.
"I think it was more we lacked a little bit of conviction in the final third. We just have to be a bit more ruthless I think. You can see that we're trying to be creative. I think in this game we had enough chances to score.
"It's frustrating [to get injured] after getting off to a good run. I'm back now. It was just a little blip for me. We've got a busy period coming up and I want to concentrate on staying fit.
"I'm happy to be back playing. Hopefully I can stay fit, get a run of games, get my match fitness and [get] back on track."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

The work done in the vineyard is fastidious - severe pruning in the winter, regular ploughing, crop-thinning, de-leafing, manicuring the clusters in the summer - and allows the perfect ripening of the fruit. The grape are manually harvested within two afternoons and sorted before crush.
Fermentation is carried out gently, without any overextraction, in temperature-controlled concrete tanks. The blend, very often pure Merlot, is defined in December and the young wine is aged in 100% new oak barrels.
This property made famous by Madame Edmond Loubat and then by Monsieur Jean-Pierre Moueix, culminates at 130 feet on the plateau of Pomerol. Ets Jean-Pierre Moueix is responsible for the cultivation, vinification and aging as well as the export distribution of Petrus wines. View all Chateau Petrus Wines
About PomerolView a map of Pomerol wineries POH-mehr-all
It's a tiny region, and it has no classification system. But the wines produced from Pomerol can be sensuous and life-changing. Here lies Chateau Pétrus, one of the most expensive and sought-after wines of the world – many vintages commanding prices higher than the first-growth chateaux of the Médoc. The area is all vines, with no real town center, just roads connecting the lands and small, farmhouse style chateaux.

Soils in the area are primarily gravel based, intermittent with a clay subsoil, which is a factor in the rich flavors of the wines. Like its right bank neighbors, Pomerol sticks mainly to Merlot, with at least 2/3 of the land under vine growing the variety. Cabernet Franc makes up most of the remainder, with some Cabernet Sauvignon and a spot or two of Malbec. Vines are old and yields are extremely low – add those factors to the soil, and it's a recipe for an elegant, distinctive wine, with typical descriptors of intense aromas, ripe fruits and supple tannins. Quality can be vintage-dependent - in a good vintage, expect melt-in-your-mouth wine.
About France - Other regionsWhen it comes to wine, France is a classic. Classic blends, grapes and styles began in the country and they still remain. Think about it - people ask for a Burgundian style Pinot Noir, they refer to wines as Bordeaux or Rhone blends - Champagne even had to pass a law to stop international wineries from putting their region on the label of all sparkling wine.
The top regions of France are: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Languedoc-Roussillon, Loire, Rhone. And these regions are so diverse! It makes sense that wine regions throughout the world try to emulate their style. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are no longer French varieties, but international varieties. They may not be the leader of cutting edge technology or value-priced wines, but there is no doubt that they are still producing wines of great quality and diversity.

IRC (Internet Relay Chat) may very well turn out to be the world's most successful hack. In 1988, Jarkko Oikarinen wrote the original IRC program at the University of Oulu, Finland. As he says in his foreword, "IRC started as one summer trainee's programming exercise. A hack grew into a software development project that hundreds of people participated in, and then became a worldwide environment where tens of thousands of people now spend time with each other. I have found many of my friends through IRC and learnt a significant part of my present software engineering knowledge while using and working with IRC. That would not have been possible without learning from code examples and hacks from others".IRC has continued to grow in popularity since its inception. Millions of people from all over the world now use IRC to chat with friends, discuss projects and collaborate on research. With a simple, clearly defined protocol, IRC has become one of the most accessible chat environments, with clients written for a multitude of operating systems. And IRC is more than just a simple chat system it is a network of intercommunicating servers, allowing thousands of clients to connect from anywhere in the world using the IRC protocol.While IRC is easy to get into and many people are happy to use it without being aware of what's happening under the hood, there are those who hunger for more knowledge, and this book is for them. IRC Hacks is a collection of tips and tools that cover just about everything needed to become a true IRC master, featuring contributions from some of the most renowned IRC hackers, many of whom collaborated on IRC, grouping together to form the channel #irchacks on the freenode IRC network (irc.freenode.net).Like all of our Hacks books, there are many different ways to use IRC Hacks. You can read the book from cover to cover, but you might be better served by picking an interesting item from the table of contents and just diving in.If you're relatively new to IRC, you should considering starting with a few hacks from each progressive chapter. Chapter 1 starts you off by showing you how to connect to IRC, while Chapter 2 acquaints you with the everyday concepts you'll need to use IRC effectively. Chapter 3 is all about users and channels, and introduces the first pieces of code. Chapter 4 shows you how to make useful enhancements to IRC clients.Chapter 5 is where you will learn the basics about creating IRC bots, with Chapters 6-12 introducing more complex bots that can be used for logging, servicing communities, searching, announcing, networking, managing channels or simply for having fun. Chapter 13 delves into the IRC protocol in more detail, and Chapter 14 demonstrates some interesting alternative methods for connecting to IRC. Finally, Chapter 15 will move you on to new pastures by showing you how to set up your own IRC server.This book presents an opportunity to learn how IRC works and how to make best use of some of the features that have made it the most successful, most scalable, and most mature chat system on this planet. IRC Hacks delves deep into the possibilities.
Paul Mutton is a PhD student at the University of Kent in the UK, frantically trying to finish off his thesis at the same time as writing this book. He previously graduated with first class honors in Computer Science, winning the IEE Institution Prize for being the best overall student in his department. He uses IRC to collaborate with researchers in other countries and to talk to people in his office when they have their headphones on. In his remaining spare time, he uses his Sun Certified Java Programmer skills to develop all sorts of open source software on his personal web site (http://www.jibble.org). Some of his research has culminated in the creation of the popular PieSpy application (http://www.jibble.org/piespy/), which infers and visualizes social networks on IRC, and even appeared on slashdot once. He can normally be found jibbling around in #jibble and #irchacks on the freenode IRC network with the nickname Jibbler, or Paul on smaller networks.

Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. The tool on the cover of IRC Hacks is a hacksaw. The hacksaw is a saw specifically designed for cutting short or thin metal building materials as well as PVC pipe. It has an adjustable frame and uses thin, flexible blades that are stretched tightly in the frame. The blades are meant to be disposed of after they become dull from use. The finer the teeth on a hacksaw blade, the thinner the piece of metal that can be cut. A junior hacksaw is used for even finer cutting, and intricate cutwork in metal requires a piercing saw.In Greek mythology, the saw was invented by Talos, who was the nephew of the preeminent inventor Daedalus. By the time he was twelve, Talos had invented not only the saw, but the potter's wheel and the compass. Daedalus murdered his nephew out of professional jealousy, luring him to the top of the Acropolis and then pushing him off. The Furies-who punished criminals, especially murderers-strongly disapproved of parricide, and manipulated events such that Daedalus' son, Icarus, perished while flying in one of Daedalus' own inventions. Sarah Sherman was the production editor and Norma Emory was the copyeditor for IRC Hacks . Catherine Morris was the proofreader, and Matt Hutchinson and Emily Quill provided quality control. Ellen Troutman wrote the index.Hanna Dyer designed the cover of this book, based on a series design by Edie Freedman. The cover image is from the DJ Soft Tools V39 CD. Emma Colby produced the cover layout with Quark XPress 4.1 using Adobe's Helvetica Neue and ITC Garamond fonts.David Futato designed the interior layout. This book was converted by Julie Hawks to FrameMaker 5.5.6 with a format conversion tool created by Erik Ray, Jason McIntosh, Neil Walls, and Mike Sierra that uses Perl and XML technologies. The text font is Linotype Birka; the heading font is Adobe Helvetica Neue Condensed; and the code font is LucasFont's TheSans Mono Condensed. The illustrations that appear in the book were produced by Robert Romano and Jessamyn Read using Macromedia FreeHand 9 and Adobe Photoshop 6. This colophon was written by Reg Aubry.

Good book for learning how to make bots
By Carlgo11
from Sweden
Best Uses
Comments about oreilly IRC Hacks:
I find this book useful. Some of the code examples are really useful and I've copied large parts of the code to rewrite and learn from.However the book is outdated and many of the examples are no longer usable. Most of the examples are based on the authors own java bot API called Pircbot. This bot's API is no longer updated and mostly unusable too.It's a good book and I recommend it if you like me want to learn the basics of making a irc-bot in java but I don't recommend it for beginners.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Book Review - IRC Hacks""
By Dan C
from Undisclosed
IRC Hacks100 Industrial-Strength Tips & ToolsBy Paul MuttonFirst Edition July 2004 Series: HacksISBN: 0-596-00687-X432 pages, $24.95I found this book to be fairly interesting and somewhat useful. Being quite familiar with IRC already, some of the introductory material was information that I already knew, but I did learn a few things about the more technical aspects of the IRC protocol and IRC servers/networks. Much of this book has to do with writing and using IRC channel "bots", which I think most casual IRC users would not be all that interested in. The first four chapters introduce what IRC is, and how to connect to an IRC network and begin chatting with others. Various IRC client applications are described, including the most popular ones for Linux, Mac, and Windows. Other topics here include how to register your nickname, configuring your client, how to join servers/channels, and some nice customizations to add functionality and enjoyment to your use of IRC. I would think that these first chapters would be very useful to a newcomer to IRC, and allow them to get up and running quickly.Chapter 5 introduces the concepts of "bots", and how to write your own bots in various languages, including Perl, Python, and Java. Some of it is fairly technical, and may appeal mostly to programmers and more serious IRC "hackers". Also mentioned is the idea of bot "ethics" and the policies that many IRC networks have regarding their use.The next several chapters (6 - 12) provide numerous ideas and examples of making and using your own bots. IRC bots can perform many functions, some of which can be very useful, and others that have primarily an entertainment value. Much of the content of these chapters is actual code examples for many different types of bots, including Logging, Social, Search & Query, Announcement, Network and Channel Management, and Fun bots.Chapters 13 - 15 go a little further into the technical side of how the IRC protocol works, encryption, web access to IRC, and even how to run your own IRC server. Many readers will find these subjects more complex than they care to get involved in.Overall, I think this book is best suited to IRC users who are somewhat more than beginners, and are fairly technically oriented. I was surprised by the large amount of bot programming examples, which actually make up the majority of the book. I am not sure there will be that many users who really want to code their own bot. The first few chapters are helpful for IRC beginners, although there are probably better books for that purpose. I did get some ideas for modifying an existing bot, which I presently use occasionally in our LUG's IRC channel for entertainment (trivia contests). All in all, this title is best suited for more experienced users who may enjoy programming and "hacking" around with IRC bots.

IRC Hacks Review
By Deep6
This book was well written but was definately NOT for beginners and covered very little on mIRC and scripting with that client. This book is mostly for programmers familiar with python and java. There was also lots of info in reguards to unix and linux. I was hoping that this book would have been more beginner friendly and give some handy hacks for mIRC for windows platforms. Needless to say, I wouldnt recommend this book for any begginers or windows users. I feel that I wasted my money on this book.

Gervinho insists Arsenal are fully focused on winning Tuesday's Champions League clash against Olympiacos in Greece.
Arsène Wenger's side have already qualified for the knockout stages of the tournament, and are one point behind Group B leaders Schalke.
And Gervinho is adamant his team will approach their trip to Athens like any other fixture.
"It's a bit different for us because first place of the group is still up for grabs so we do have something to play for, even if we have qualified already," he told Arsenal.com.
"Also, the manager might rotate the team and then it becomes a good opportunity for some players who don't always play to play well and they will be very motivated.
"Even if we have already qualified, we have to stay focused and humble. For the rest of the competition, it would not be good to finish the group stages with a defeat.
"Anything is possible in football. Montpellier drew in Schalke earlier in the season so they can do it at home. I hope Olivier [Giroud] will make a few phone calls to the manager, the president and his former team-mates to make sure they help us!
"More seriously, if Montpellier win and we don't, it will be pointless anyway. So first of all, we need to do our part of the job. We will stay focused on ourselves and beating Olympiacos and then we will have a look at how Montpellier are doing.
"Look at Real Madrid. They are sure to finish second. So if you win your group, you could still face them in the last 16. First, let's beat Olympiacos and then whoever we face in the last 16, we'll be focused on going through."

Talk About Marriage (http://talkaboutmarriage.com/forumindex.php)
- Dealing with Grief and Loss (http://talkaboutmarriage.com/dealing-grief-loss/)
- - It's been one year since my Dad died (http://talkaboutmarriage.com/dealing-grief-loss/14077-its-been-one-year-since-my-dad-died.html)
It's been one year since my Dad died
About a month ago, I started planning a trip with my sister to visit my father's grave. He's buried about 800 miles away from where I live with my H. I took a bus to where my sister and mother live, about 500 miles away, and my sister and I drove out to the grave later. My H was supposed to come pick me up tomorrow night.
It's been a terrible week, and missing my Dad has been only the cherry on top of this sh*t sundae. The day my sister and I came home from the grave, I got an angry phone call from my H about why I didn't call when I said I would. I had attempted to keep in contact through text but that wasn't good enough. He said I had denied him the basic common courtesy due a husband from his wife.
The next problem was over plans with my mother and sister. My sister never met my H before we got married (we eloped) and my remaining family members wanted to go out to dinner when my H got here. I agreed to dinner before I checked the idea with him and he accused me of ordering him around, selling out to my mother and sister, and abusing him.
For the next couple days of my visit, I tried to call about every 4 hours, with texts in between. He ended up getting mad at me when I cut one of our phone calls short at 6 minutes because my sister and I wanted to get pedicures. Since the salon was closed, I ended up having plenty of time to apologize for putting my sister ahead of him for the next hour on the phone.
Finally, today, one day before he is hopefully still coming to pick me up, I ended up on the phone for almost 2 hours after dinner with my mom and sis, which was the only time I would have had to spend with my mom before she went to bed. Once again I was apologizing for ordering him around, not making him my top priority, ignoring him, abusing him, selling out, not defending him, and distracting him from work while I've been gone. All the while he grilled me about my mom and sis's respective jobs, their boyfriends, what I thought they would ask about, who owed me money, so he could be prepared for what he believes will be an inquisition and I had hoped was just going to be a nice dinner out.
It's to the point where I feel like I have to choose him or my family. I feel guilty for spending time with my mom and my sister for less than a week. I don't think we'll ever be able to have nice Thankgivings or Christmases together, and he told me if I wasn't the woman he married when he comes to pick me up, he's leaving.
I can't stop missing my Dad. I can't stop loving my mom and sister. I love my husband but apparently not enough. I would never, have never, given him an ultimatum like this. I feel like the only way I can keep loving him is to hate myself for all the pain I've caused him. He kept telling me how lucky I was that he loved me in spite of everything I've done to him. I don't know what to do with myself.
Re: It's been one year since my Dad died
>>he told me if I wasn't the woman he married when he comes to pick me up, he's leaving.<<
I invite you to think about that. Do you want to spend the rest of your life being "the woman he married"? Is it possible for you to be that? Life is change. Your father's death will naturally change your relationship to your mother and sister. If your husband actually wants you to remain unchanged, he is trying to condemn you to a life without personal growth. Is that what you want?
Listen to your husband's language and ask yourself if he is speaking the truth, or if he is speaking a version of the truth that suits him. "Ordering him around" and "abusing him" do not describe what you did. If you're feeling guilty, that's probably what he intended. Why does he want you to suffer with guilt at a time when you're suffering over the death of your father?
From here, your husband sounds like someone who is afraid of losing something. Your visit to your family occurs to him as a threat. If he is willing and able to tell you what he's afraid of, you can make a decision about whether you want to help him with that fear. If he can't or won't, then you're just going to have to choose whether you want to live the kind of life he's demanding you live. You may not like having to make that choice, but it is your choice, not his.
Re: It's been one year since my Dad died
Why does he want to separate you from your family? This is one of the first signs of an abuser.
Re: It's been one year since my Dad died
My mom and I watch this channel on TV called the Lifetime channel. We call it the Men Killing Women channel. They show program after real-life program about women who have been killed or nearly killed by their husbands and boyfriends. The men always are control freak jealous types like your husband. I am worried for you.
Please get some counseling for you, to deal with your low self-esteem (believe me, it takes one to know one) and for both of you, to deal with the control issues in your marriage. Your husband's treatment of you is abusive, not the other way around, and if you don't get some help, this could go very bad places.
Re: It's been one year since my Dad died
Agreed with others..your H is the one abusing and being controlling.
You should evaluate whether his good qualities overshadow these behaviors. If not, you may want to consider taking him up on his offer and not be "the women he married".
The fact that he is acting this way durring your time of grief is not acceptable. Work on your esteeem (for dealing with this) with a professional or otherwise and consider the merrits of staying with your husband. He sounds like he has issues/controlling or whatever.
I will pray for you.
Re: It's been one year since my Dad died
Unfortunately I look like a troll with only 1 message and the liklihood I never return.
Tomorrow is the one year anniversary since my dad died and Google ended up diecting me here whilst looking to see if it is common to struggle emotionally with the year.
Anyway, before this becomes completely about me I wanted to add my neutral thoughts without reading your other posts (as above, I ended up here in error).
What is with the sudden attack of claiming the guy is an abuser and likely to kill?
Way to pour petrol on what may be a burning sensation of pain/ confusion.
I have seen many friendships and relationships end due to misguided information.
Using my experience and expectations of my other half :
I do not really like text messages, but accept they are inevitable due to time constraints/ location etc..., but you can not beat a phone call.
Us blokes struggle on the emotional point of view and often think/ believe it is our responsibility to fix or repair those around us that are important.
Could you husband feel weak and confused and wish to be the person that stands strong along with you?
I have been moody and confused with the anniversary for around a week now, so he will know something is wrong. It will take time for him to work out what he feels right and worries that your family could equally turn you against him.
Calling every four hours suddenly goes on the pestering, but also makes you look submissive.
Just thoughts as these could obviously go wrong as I have no idea of your circumstances:
I know I have not called, but to be honest I had not realised the time. Hope you are ok and this is what we are doing...
I am glad to have been able to do this. Looking forward to getting back with you. Fancy a meal out and I can just start my next step forward with a weight off my shoulders.
My family are being a pain, but least we have not all crowded round the house. I reckon I would have left you with them and headed to church.
Finally.... Do not build your life around him. If he wants a call, extend that courtesy, but drop in the conversation that you are doing things such as, meal with family, at the grave etc.., and it is about common courtesy to those around (and not just family).
There is always a happy medium, but from what I gather it is just a minor communication issue and a little TLC and working together will sort you out.
I do emphasise that I do not know anything about you or your circumstances, so this may be very misguided.
Take care.

So at the field the other day I took my mask off and set it down to hold a friends gun while he ran back to the truck. I didn't notice but a big red Dodge came driving up past us (where he's not supposed to be driving) and I didn't notice because I was watching a game. He ran over the mask and I was heart broken. Luckily I had an extra with me so I could finish out the day. Any goofy shit like that ever happen to you?

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is ready for his first-team opportunity over the Christmas period.
The young winger has shown flashes of brilliance since joining the Club from Southampton in the summer, featuring regularly in the team's run to the Carling Cup Quarter-Finals.
Wenger has demonstrated his faith in the 18-year-old by starting him in both Champions League fixtures against Olympiacos, the first of which saw him become the competition's youngest English goalscorer.
Oxlade-Chamberlain is happy to bide his time but he will be raring to go if he gets his chance during a run of four games in 12 days.
"I can't say [when I will play], I don't know, that's for the boss to say really," he told Arsenal Player. "I'm just available if ever needed.
"There are a lot of games and maybe it is a time where players are going to be rested. It's a lot of work for the body physically so if I am required then I'm ready. I'm looking forward to getting an opportunity and I will try and take my chance.

Why do guys badmouth their wives?
posted at 10:51 am on March 3, 2013 by Ed Morrissey
If you've watched Steven Crowder and I discuss marriage on my daily show, you'll already know that this is actually a pet peeve of mine as well. I like to tease my wife about her being the boss, and sometimes I'll joke around about the "yes dear" survival instinct with others when she's with me. Otherwise, any joking I do about our marriage outside of her presence is at my own expense, not hers, and I've even tried to curtail that. Too many men do nothing but deride their spouses and complain about marriage, to the point where one has to wonder just who is the real problem.
Steven takes them on in his latest Fox News column about the need to project a positive image of the institution of marriage:
Here's my challenge to the real men out there; it's very simple. If you have a good marriage, talk about it. If you love your wife, say it. If some moron tells you that you're merely a "newlywed" or that you're still just "too young to understand," correct them. Openhanded slaps to the face are preferable.
Unless those of us who love our wives (and thus, our lives) make a conscious change to the way we speak of them, unless we begin choosing to elevate and praise our spouses instead of denigrate, we will be letting an incredibly corrosive self-perpetuating societal meme destroy the very institution that defines our lives.
Are we willing to do that just to fit in with some gelatinous beer buddies?
Finally, to those men out there who genuinely think of their wives as a "pain in the ass…" grow up, and learn to make some better decisions.
Also, do some squats.
A few years ago, a friend called me to tell me he was getting engaged. I congratulated him, and told him that he was going to be very happy with married life, and that while it was tough work, it would be the most rewarding effort he could possibly make. The phone was silent for a moment, and then he told me that I was the only married man with whom he had spoken who had a single positive thing to say about marriage. Quite frankly, he told me, he had begun to worry about the decision he had made until we talked about it.
As men, we should be taking steps to strengthen the family and the societal bonds that it creates, not denigrating its core institution. Venting cynicism — especially insincerely — just to fit in with boors is never a good idea, and that holds true for pretty much every principle one values. C.S. Lewis once wrote, "Courage is the form that every virtue takes at its testing point," and this is just one example of that wisdom.

Few bucks more and you can get a New or Used Nexus 7. If this was maybe under $50 I would jump on this one for the kids.

I read other owners reviews of this model ...Weak Wi-Fi signals, screen issues and service problems. Looks like this one might have a few bugs to work out.

Also seeing on Amazon a lot of charging problems.
Processor unspeciffied, only 512mb and 2 Gig memory, Android 2.3, not even a tablet OS....... do not pass go, do not give $120.
I have this tablet, paid around 200. It's been updated to honeycomb and I went ahead and picked up a 32gb sd card to solve the memory issue. I like it a lot, watch movies on it a lot, surf the web, and kids play games on it. Every once in a while I find myself wishing it were faster, but its a tablet, not a laptop. If I didn't already own this tablet I would either jump on this deal or buy the google nexus 7, for 199 new.
Thank you to all who do my research for me! This thread answered all my questions and i didn't have to google anything.
So since it's the last day it really is Wootmageddon!
Got the Polaroid tablet that was on woot! a few days ago. Very similar specs (lacking camera and bluetooth), much better price ($50). That said, I haven't had problems with refurbs so far.
With those specs, should be more like $20 new, and this is a refurb..
I paid 160 here this past summer & have no regrets...VERY happy with my Tablet...YES this is a good deal
Just ordered. Hope I can root this and get ICS on it!
This is not the android I'm looking for.
I'm sorry I missed out on the Polaroids from last week.
I bought this tablet earlier this year. If you want to root it, do not allow it to update. With the latest update from Vizio it can no longer be rooted. I don't know a lot about that sort of stuff but there is plenty of info on xda developers about it. I gave mine to my wife and am saving for a nexus.
dmntdangel wrote:With those specs, should be more like $20 new, and this is a refurb..
If it were $8 you would pass any way
We like our Vizio tablets. This is a good price, as we paid $160 each. It is heavier than my new Kindle Paperwhite, and the charging port is a vulnerable spot. If it gets pulled one way or another, it won't charge anymore.
Anyone know why they are limiting the purchase quantity to one?
This is nothing but crap, bought it last year, went through three replacement (the usb plug in the bottom falls apart inside the tablet)
It is slow, heavy as a brick, will NEVER get Ice Cream Sandwich or Jelly Bean.
I can't say enough bad about this.
Android 2.3 for anything over $20 is a waste of space on woot. I can get an ICS android 7" at hhgreg for $50 with better specs new.
NEXT item already!! Hey, times a ticking... 9 days left till the end you know. Wait, will my stuff even be shipped in time?
The end is near!
Trash. Do not buy. Trash, Trash, Trash.
I bought this from Woot at the 150 price earlier this year. Vizio too over two months replacing it the first time it failed. About 30 days ago it went into infinite power cycle mode. This is all it does. Vizio will replaceable it again but it is not worth my time. I bought a screen protector for $20 and Vision would not reimburse me for that. This thing is not worth the unending headaches it comes with. Stay away. Not to mention the garbage wi-fi and the atrocious multitasking. The tablet was inoperable for the first 5 minutes after it turned on due to background processes and downloads. Please, stay away. I will send you my piece of trash for free and you can skip straight to the end.
bought one last year.
just picked up a 2nd off ebay for $108 shipped. if Woot had had this sale going on 4 days ago I would have bought it from here.
for the $154 I paid last time for one for woot, it's been a solid value. the good surprises have been the audio quality (through the headphone jack) and the video decoding prowess. hooking it to my TV through the HDMI port and playing back high quality 720p streams has resulted in some pretty impressive visual candy.
it's not the fastest thing on the planet, no. but I use it for...
web surfing
book reading
Angry Birds
kid's educational games
youtube videos
it even came in handy during Sandy and the Nor'easter. while my cable TV was out my iternet (FiOS) wasn't. I used it to stream the local news channel's webcast for about 6 days straight.
as I said before, at $154 it wound up being a solid purchase. at $124 currently it'd be an even better deal.
Don't think of it as an underpowered tablet, think of it as an overachieving universal remote.
bradthegeek wrote:Just ordered. Hope I can root this and get ICS on it!
Um, why not Jelly Bean?
Is this woot off going for a record? Are they REALLY going until the end of the world on Dec 21?! Other woot sites pooped out - possibly emptying Amazon's warehouses of household goods and kids stuff. Happy Holidays, WooT!
I purchased this same tablet last year and have really enjoyed it!! I purchased another for a Christmas gift this month from Overstock and paid 184.95, for the same one. Needless to say, it is going back and I am going to keep this one.. Great Deal!!
Agreed with others, Android 2.3 with only 2gb of internal space is a waste. For the same money one can pick up an excellent refurbished 16gb Nook Tablet, or for a little more the Nexus 7.
Worldwide Catastrophe. I'll check back in a few hours when this finally gets to zero.

And then they put up a tablet no one appears to want. It'll be a 1 item woot off today folks!
mjworthey wrote:Um, why not Jelly Bean?
Just have ICS on the mind because its the best I can run on my phone. Jelly would be better.
Sadly it ends today (so the page says).....but a perpetual wootoff would be great!
ICS is overrated. Just sayin'.
(Note: my opinion is invalid and subject to change because I have never used ICS.)
Just one section of woot off's today--just do all the categories--don't you want our money?
Just in case you don't know, ICS cannot use external/expanded memory as system storage. So, with ICS you'll be stuck with max of 1-2GB of system storage.
My local Big Lots has some of these right now. I got to try one out, and for that reason, I wouldn't recommend it. It feels really laggy and horrible. Even the cheapo Hong Kong special 7" tablet they were selling for $80 felt more responsive.
Also, I didn't realize it was running Gingerbread. Man, they skin the C.H.U.D. out of that thing.
Vizio is definitely not updating it to ICS. There was a finally a root created over the summer: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1368599
But still no ICS available even if you root, unless you can know how to create it yourself.
DO NOT RUN UPDATES IF YOU WANT TO ROOT! I ran the updates on mine before I discovered that a root had finally been created and oh well.
Overall it's an ok tablet, and that's about it. We do watch movies on it, HDMI to tv is great. WiFi does break down every so often, but for me it's only when it goes to sleep and not every time.
It's done about everything that I expected it to do. Don't expect it to out perform a Tegra3 or anything. I think the price is about right. Under $100 would be even better seeing as how this has been the year of tablets and they are all so low.
Move on the next item already!!! No one wants it D<
Sorry for the outburst but I've refreshed this page too many times...

Keep the hive dry is a good adage.We hear of keepers who insulate the whole hive with styrene or fibre glass wraps. My view is that when the internal hive temp drops it will be very difficult to warm it up again as its insulated from the outside warmth, whereas black tar paper absorbs the heat from the sun on clear days and transmits it to the hive interior allowing the bees to move to access food.It is now 19 years since we completed our tests on our system and to date we haven't lost a hive to winter loss, yet. I hate to brag, but I have to believe that finally we have a system that works.Update: Approximately 4 years ago I was off work sick and failed to completely wrap one yard. It had 16 hives, all of which were readied for winter in the usual fashion, ie. 3 boxes, lots of stores, young queens etc, the only difference between them was that 8 were left unwrapped. Once I was fit again I walked around the yard, deep in snow, the results were quite remarkable. It was a bright sunny day, warm out of the wind but the air temperature was still well below freezing point. The wrapped hives had bees at the top entrance and house cleaning was taking place around the bottom entrance, whereas the unwrapped looked dead and only the faint hum said they were still alive.The real advantage was seen when we started working the hives. The wrapped hives took down their early feed much faster, and I commented at the time that they appeared to have more brood, as the rate of feed taken is a good indicator of brood feeding. When the weather warmed enough for us to start spring management the differences were really noticeable. The wrapped hives were far in advance of the unwrapped. They had more brood, were more frugal with the winter stores, had more adult bees, bottom boards were much cleaner, and generally the hives were better placed and ready for spring.The cost of wrapping the hive in black tar paper is approximately $1.50 per hive, not much to avoid the death of a hive. Cost of replacing that hive, over $300, by the time you add the loss of that year's honey crop, replacement and the time and effort cleaning and repairing the hive and frames.
Wrapping (insulation) not only keeps the heat in but keeps the heat out, so the bees will not begin spring flights as quickly as they will without wrapping.
I've heard about ventilating the top, but how much?
I thought this would make it way too cool inside??
When the snow falls, is there a need to keep the snow off the entrance or from around the hive, or just leave them alone?
Seems like they wouldn't want to be messed with.

These stories – your stories -- will help to build support in Congress for a strong jobs package. Some of these stories will be featured on the NEA's site, www.eduationvotes.org. On Labor Day, NEA President Dennis Van Roekel sent a letter to President Obama urging him to place a strong emphasis on our schools to improve our country's economic standing and create more educator jobs for those "who have been laid off and are no longer able to fulfill their calling to help our nation's students." Van Roekel urged the President, who will present his jobs package to Congress on Thursday, Sept. 8, to put Americans to work modernizing schools and provide direct aid to local governments. He also called for the Super Committee to develop a balanced approach to deficit reduction by including revenue-raising proposals and protecting programs for the most vulnerable. Van Roekel urged the President to invest "in infrastructure and other middle class job-creating initiatives" that will improve our country and put Americans back to work. He also warned again "the false rhetoric of ideologues who proclaim Wall Street, mega corporations, and billionaires as `job creators' who need continued special treatment under the tax code." "The bottom line for this nation — as with any nation in the world — is that when the middle class thrives, so does the nation's economy," Van Roekel wrote. "Our communities become stronger.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Man, I only wanted to let him know about Trifexis!
How far from Chico are you? I have friends up there that have GSDs and I know they have a great vet.. but not sure if your location is near there.
Sent from Petguide.com Free App
|Thanks for all the info. Didn't mean to start a dispute over heartworm medications and killing dogs. Just wanted to see if the vet fees sounded reasonable. For those that are curious, im in Northern california. Not a terrible place as far as heartworms go but from what I know not the safest either. And I guess it is becoming a growing concern. In any case. From all the places I've called,the prices were all about the same. Except this was the only place that gave the flea/heartworm medications and included free office visits. That plus friendly staff, clean facilities, and great reviews.. Seemed pretty good.
One more thing: it takes 6 months for an adult HW to develop. That doesn't mean it takes that long for infection.
Ivermectin only kills the microfilaria that developed in the last 30 days. (Advantage Multi might go as long as 45 days from what I've read, but the vet advice is always to play it safe and not push past 30.)
The stage in between where ivermectin gets them and when they are adults won't show up on a HW test, but it doesn't mean they aren't infected. It means the test isn't sensitive enough to pick up the juvenile worms. They're in there, growing (and reproducing if the dog isn't getting monthly preventative).
The American Heartworm Society's immiticide treatment protocol requires three months on prevention before starting treatment for this reason (the adulticide immiticide treatment only kills adult worms, so the juvenile worms would other wise escape treatment, and your dog would test positive again in 6 months). The stage where they're if they're too old to kill with ivermectin but too young for immiticide is the concern.
I read that Advantage Multi just got relabeled by the FDA for some efficacy on some stage of juvenile worm, but it's not an adulticide.
It's all very complicated as to which products kill which stage, but the only-dose-every-three month advice will result in an infection down here.
Many, many of us down here have had the experience of adopting a HW- puppy, keeping it on preventative and having it turn HW+ at the 6-month recheck because it was already infected when adopted, but it wasn't showing up on the test yet b/c the worms were too young. That's not a failure of the preventative products (and they were used safely during this period)--it's just a function of the HW lifecycle, and the fact that that tests are designed to be sensitive to adult HW, not juveniles.
Heartgard is ivermectin-based. The amount of ivermectin in it is identical in generic products like Petrust (Walmart) and Iverhart (online). It's labeled for pups over 6 weeks, if I remember correctly.
Ivermectin has been given to HW+ dogs for slow kill treatment for years and years in the Deep South. People used to worry about shock from sudden microfilaria die-off in a HW+ dog--that turned out to be theoretical, I guess, and is now no longer talked about by vets as a concern. They now actually give a big dose of it sometimes as part of HW treatment at the end of the treatment to kill microfilaria, even with fast kill.
Trifexis and Proheart though cannot be given to HW+ dogs. Advantage Multi is the product of choice for HW+ dogs in the Deep South, where we deal with this all the time. I don't know anyone who uses Revolution down here.
There has been a lot of debate about taking HW preventatives off RX. The vet lobby has stopped it as it's a money-maker. The best argument for keeping it under RX is requiring an annual test makes sure people stay compliant. There's so much misinformation about not needing it year-round, or encouraging people to skip doses that MANY dogs end up HW+ due to failure to follow instructions.
In the Deep South, a dog that isn't on it year-round WILL get HW -- even if an inside dog. You can play with essential oils all you want, but if a mosquito finds your dog, good luck. We have an epidemic. Anyone playing games with this down here will end up with a + dog and a BIG vet bill. Worse, the cure for HW is immiticide which is arsenic-based, requires two months of crate rest and has a mortality rate that is not insignificant. If you've never seen an untreated dog die from HW, you are lucky--it's a painful, miserable, sad way to die (and dogs with advanced HW are very common in shelters and yards here).
It's quite possible that in the far north it's not an epidemic, and less intensive prevention works for you. That's not true down here, where mosquitoes are a year-round phenomenon, and the infection rate is very, very high.

Yes, sarcasm is most helpful.
Helping people understand why you propagate dangerous pesticides on growing puppies with something (link) to reasons...that would be more helpful.
Much like mine, as to why you SHOULDN'T.
Prevent mosquito bites, you prevent heartworm. Many natural solutions - non toxic.
OP, btw...it takes about 5-8 months from the time a mosquito with HW bites your pooch, before it actually makes it into the heart...I believe it's 3 months in the dermis - that's where spot-ons treat...so you could if you had to use - do every three months - less toxicity.
IF your dog is not MDR1 (this is a cheek swab - worth doing as anti-diarrhea drugs, certain anesthesia's and so on are on the mdr1 list - including the active in trifexis too)...I read somewhere that Heartguard is the safest HW prevention...

And the free office visits were just allowing me to come in and get him checked out. And if he actually needs something then I'd pay for service. But I think that's pretty much everywhere. Other vets I've called said there will be an exam fee every time I go onto the office. Even for shots. I think if anything it'd give me the peace of mind to be able to get advice from a vet anytime something was iffy. Instead of trying to determine if it's bad enough to spend that $50 exam fee. I'll look into the flea meds though. Thanks!

How is it different? I mean ivermectin treatment for active HW is oral? Injection?
So putting a miniscule amount on the skin behind the shoulders is "more dangerous" for active HW infection?
Please elaborate, as I am trying to wrap my head around this.

I know these questions have been asked before, and possibly, I might not even be on the right section of the site for this, but since this is where the belt-fed people hang out, I thought I'd just ask here and be done with it in order to make it simple.
A few things about my situation: I have built ak's, semi-subguns, and have a "medium" I suppose, knowledge of building. However, when it comes to belt-feds, I'm as lost as those guys in "Flight of the Phoenix".
My questions are these;
Would it be easier for me to build a semi-mg-34 or 42 or just buy one?
Are the Marstar mg-34's any good?
Are there people who could build me one?
Which is the best route to take?
Thank's. And if I'm in the wrong section, please forgive me.
I will have about $5000 in a few weeks (possibly 3-4 weeks) to play with in this experiment, so it needs to stay within that budget. I just want to get info beforehand, so that it will be easier when I start getting everything together.
Thank's again.
p.s.-the marstars seem reasonable-but would i do better elsewhere?
Or would I do better building, or having someone do it for me?
