In its PfP Presentation Document submitted to NATO in September 2007, Serbia indicated its intention to become an active participant in the Partnership for Peace. As Allied leaders reiterated at their summit meeting in Chicago in May 2012, NATO stands ready to further develop an ambitious and substantive relationship with Serbia, making full use of its PfP membership, while at the same time respecting Serbia's policy of military neutrality.
In a speech on 29 June 2011, NATO's Secretary General stated that "Serbia's future lies in peaceful cooperation with its neighbours and with the European Union and NATO. […] We have made good progress these past few years in developing a sound basis for partnership and cooperation. It is now up to Serbia to decide if it wants to move forwards in its cooperation with NATO, and how fast."
Kosovo is of course a key subject in NATO's dialogue with Serbia. The Alliance intervened militarily in early 1999 to bring an end to the violence in Kosovo, subsequently deploying the NATO-led Kosovo peacekeeping force (KFOR) to provide a safe and secure environment and facilitate reconstruction. KFOR remains crucial to guaranteeing security in Kosovo and will remain in Kosovo on the basis of United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244 to ensure a safe and secure environment, including freedom of movement for all people.
At the Chicago Summit, the Allies reiterated their support for Serbia's Euro-Atlantic integration and encouraged Belgrade to continue building a strong partnership with NATO. Allied leaders also called upon Serbia to support further efforts towards the consolidation of peace and stability in Kosovo. They urged Belgrade and Pristina to take full advantage of the opportunities offered to promote peace, security, and stability in the region, in particular by the European Union-facilitated dialogue.

The president's top diplomat said Friday he wasn't looking "backwards" at the White House quashing of a proposal last summer to arm the Syrian rebels, but was instead looking at what the United States will do regarding helping the opposition.
Last summer President Barack Obama's national security team, including Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, CIA Director David Petraeus, outgoing Defense Secretary Leon Panetta and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Martin Dempsey, backed a proposal to provide weapons to Syrian rebels but, U.S. officials told CNN on Thursday, the White House blocked the idea.
That rift was unexpectedly revealed Thursday in testimony on Capitol Hill. Sen. John McCain, R-Arizona, asked Panetta and Dempsey: "Did you support the recommendation by Secretary of State -- then-Secretary of State Clinton and then-head of CIA General Petraeus that we provide weapons to the resistance in Syria? Do you support that?
Both Panetta and Dempsey said they supported the proposal, later revealing it was the president who opted not to provide lethal support.
"Obviously there were a number of factors that were involved here that ultimately led to the president's decision to make it nonlethal," Panetta said.
Asked Friday to comment on divisions in the administration over arming Syrian rebels, Secretary of State John Kerry refused to be drawn into the controversy.
"I'm not going to go backwards," he said. "I'm the new secretary of state and we're going forward from this point."
But, he added, "We are evaluating right now. We're taking a look at what steps, if any -- diplomatic particularly -- might be able to be taken in an effort to try to reduce that violence and deal with the situation."
For now,the White House seems to have shut the door on one idea that involved arming Syrian rebels vetted by CIA agents already on the ground in neighboring countries.
At his November 14 press conference, Obama presented the rationale that became the administration's mantra: "We have seen extremist elements insinuate themselves into the opposition, and one of the things that we have to be on guard about -- particularly when we start talking about arming opposition figures -- is that we're not indirectly putting arms in the hands of folks who would do Americans harm, or do Israelis harm, or otherwise engage in actions that are detrimental to our national security."

Springboks scrum-half Ruan Pienaar believes containing Wallabies captain Will Genia could help his team prevail in Saturday's clash in Perth.
Pienaar has identified Genia as Australia's dangerman and feels his battle with the Reds number nine is the most difficult assignment that any player in his side will face.
"Will's probably the most important guy in the Australian side so it's a big challenge for me, but I think that's why you play rugby to play against the best guys and hopefully I can do a proper job," Pienaar told AAP.
"Obviously for me he's probably the best nine in world rugby for a couple of seasons now and he's a player who can create something out of nothing.
"I think the whole Australian team will be keen to do well (after back-to-back losses to New Zealand) and we didn't get what we wanted out of those two Argentina games (one loss and a draw) ... so it's going to be an interesting game and a tough game."
Pienaar knows how how important a win is for the Springboks and the Wallabies as both teams are some way off the pace set by the table-topping All Blacks.
"It's a must-win for both teams and for us travelling over here it's a big challenge playing in Perth," he said.
"Both of us are under a bit of pressure and want to perform well and build momentum going forward in this competition."

It's rare, in the life of a reviewer, to have the privilege of critiquing a product so amazing, so game changing, so paradigm shifting as to completely remap the industry landscape.
Such a product is the Liberty Freedom 1776 A-FY tower speaker from Lirpa Labs, the company founded by storied audio designer Dr. Loof Lirpa.
"With all the economic turmoil caused by endless bailouts, excessive government spending, and the misuse of the American worker, I felt it was time to bring speaker manufacturing back to the United States, where speakers were invented," Dr. Lirpa said in an interview I conducted at the product's debut during this year's CES. (See Brent Butterworth's coverage here.) After the company's second bankruptcy, Lirpa was able to secure an unused chunk of Obama bailout money as capital. The speakers are being manufactured in Lebanon, Kansas, the geographical center of the United States.
Lirpa also said to me, "We Americans are the best trained, most capable, most highly skilled workers in the world, and it was time that someone in the A/V business remembered that."
When I tried to respond that many A/V companies are making products in the U.S., Lirpa was having none of it. "America!" was his only rejoinder.
After securing the first review sample for S+V, I waited patiently at home for the delivery.
If I can't find out where to buy them ,what good is it.
Lol!!! I had forgotten about the venerable Dr. Lirpa! From the old Stereo Review days! Lol!
Great review ! Made me sign up.
Do you think these speakers could bring Hunter Thompson back form the dead ?
Very funny article. Salut your sense of humor. Grand Teton was the best one.
ha ha....loof=fool:)

Black Forest Bacon and Brussels Sprouts
Today Cameron and I bought some Brussels sprouts and black forest bacon. We pan fried the bacon and set it aside. Then we cooked the halved Brussels sprouts and cloves of garlic in the bacon fat until browned and crisped. We then drained the sprouts and garlic and tossed it all with the crushed black forest bacon. It was decadent, rich, and delicious. Might be good with Bok choy, too.
So Proud of My Apple Jailbreak Skills
I'm so in love with my iPhone, and Cameron is also in love with it. I'd had my 3GS since it came out and had resisted the urge to upgrade to the 4, knowing that the 4S was on its way. Then I had to resist actually using the 4S until the Dev Team came up with an untethered Jailbreak for the 4S. I'd lived in the jailbroken iPhone world too long to be able to go back to just the standard iPhone. Finally, on my 28th birthday, the team released the 4S untethered jailbreak.
My History with My 3GS
When I jailbroke my 3GS, it was simple. I went to jailbreakme.com (now defunct), and clicked Jailbreak. A minute later Cydia popped up and that was it. It turns out Absinthe was easy, as well. I restored my 3GS' data to the 4S, then plugged it into my Macbook, opened Absinthe, and jailbroke it. Voila. Everything went smoothly. I also jailbroke my father's 4S with the updated Absinthe that came out a few weeks later.
That left my 3GS lonely and abandoned. It had been with me for so long. I gave it to Cameron to use, even though it awkwardly had texts exchanges from my failed relationships still on it. On Valentine's Day, I worked on making it a usable phone for him. He has T-Mobile.
There were a few problems with my 3GS. The first one was that it had a ridiculous amount of crap on it downloaded off Installous and buggy tweaks from Sinful iPhone. It crashed a lot and was unstable. Also, it had all my stuff on it that Cameron didn't need. In addition, it was running iOS 4.0.
The Jailbreak Process
First I used redsn0w to create a custom IPSW so I could upgrade the iOS to 5.0.1 while preserving the 5.13.04 baseband. Finally, I could jailbreak the phone by running redsn0w again then use ultrasn0w to unlock the iPhone. At one point I forgot to put the phone in Pwned DFU mode and it kept giving me an iTunes error 1604, so I used iRebs and that fixed it. I didn't really know what I was doing. I was freaked out I'd mess something up (like upgrade the baseband). Luckily, my 3GS was a good candidate for me because it had the old 5.13.04 baseband and also was made during the first few weeks of production.
Finally, we popped the T-Mobile SIM card into the iPhone and after a few minutes, it started getting a signal and worked perfectly! Cameron and I played with the settings and turned off the cellular data network. He doesn't really need to use 3G data and he didn't want to upgrade his plan to add data to it. We reset the data usage counter and with cellular data turned off, it is like an iPod Touch when it's outside a WiFi network, except that it can make calls. Also, with the upgraded iOS, he can use iMessage.
It took a lot of time and reading to figure it all out. I've decided retrospectively that the best tutorial for upgrading, jailbreaking, and unlocking the 3GS on baseband 5.13.04 is The Coolest Guy in on the Planet's. It's pretty straightforward.
Lessons Learned
I also bought my parents an iPad 2 and jailbroke it for them using Absinthe. No issues there, either, except that now I really want an iPad 2.
I learned my lesson and have been fairly fastidious with my 4S. I only installed a few tweaks, like the five icon dock and SBS Settings. I only have a few other jailbreak apps and only a few Installous apps. I'm trying to be good to the phone.
When I last looked at Cameron's phone, on the other hand, it had six folders full of games…

text: White Sands to Space Shuttle Jacob walks through the night, and the next morning arrives at White Sands, a huge stretch of white dunes made of gypsum particles eroded from a deposit miles away. There, in the dunes, oscillating shapes drop from the sky, breaking through the thin layers of time to show Jacob the variety of forms that the future dead can assume. During this show, the landscape fragments ; Jacob rides the pieces to a tower in the desert. This is a transit point, where he meets the Space Shuttle as it drops from the sky. The shuttle takes him back to his bed at the Garden of Eden, where there is a message waiting for him in his grandfather's diary, written by the dead. The message tells him that he will not be able to stop walking until he has found the victim that the future dead intend for him to kill, somewhere on another planet inside the earth.... the bees, waiting for him there, will identify the victim for him on his arrival. At the end of this communication, Jacob returns to the White Sands.

The ForexCopy system by InstaForex provides investors with a wide range of unique financial services. Using a revolutionary approach to investments in high-yield projects and reconsidering basic principles of payment settlements between a trader and investor, InstaForex has developed the ForexCopy system, unprecedented service in online brokerage.
To start copying trades, investors should register a live account on any InstaForex server and register in the ForexCopy system as a Follower. (Investors registered in the ForexCopy system are called "Followers" as in fact they follow trading strategies of selected Traders and do not make investment decisions). After the registration, the Follower can look through the monitoring list and copying terms which Traders set to provide their services. The Follower also gets an opportunity to set subscription parameters for every Trader by choosing currency pairs and scale of copying trades from the Trader's account.
Subscription parameters are set for every Trader individually and may be changed without cancellation of the subscription. In case a Trader has changed his payment options, this move will not affect Followers who had already subscribed to this Trader beforehand. The system protects Followers against any corrections made by the Trader at his sole discretion and guarantees that copying terms accepted by the Follower will be met.
The system is fully automated and does not require any additional actions from a Follower. After a Trader has approved the subscription, a Follower may have to wait for some 15 minutes until the ForexCopy system is ready to copy Trader's orders. Every Follower can monitor the statistics on trading and an account balance in Client Cabinet.
Depending on a payment option, a Trader receives a commission by the end of the day or after the subscription has been cancelled. A Trader may choose a commission per subscription day and receive a commission every day, or a commission per trade and receive a commission for each profitable trade after his Follower has cancelled the subscription. Any commission is credited automatically with no additional actions required. Both the Trader and the Follower may monitor a current amount of commission to be paid online.
Followers of the ForexCopy system can upgrade their profile and become Traders with a right to copy orders of other Traders. To enable this option, choose the corresponding parameter in your Profile. Besides, an account of an upgraded Follower will be included in the monitoring list of the ForexCopy system.

The recent drop in China's GDP growth has raised concerns with many who hoped the country's economy would underpin a global financial recovery. For China's government, the speed at which it becomes a 'new entrant' in the global financial markets needs to be balanced by its necessity to protect the region's economic stability.
Interest in direct investment in emerging market equities is increasing but has always been difficult due to regulations on foreign ownership and capital controls. The most relevant of these markets is the BRICs (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa), a collection of the largest of the emerging markets.

I haven't posted in a while, and this will be the last for the foreseeable future. At its foundation, Third Pipe was focused on the promise of alternatives to the telco/cable chokehold on internet access. We evolved to report on issues of an open Internet, personal privacy, security and intellectual property.The shocking loss freedom as it relates to all of these topics have made reporting on new developments so consistently negative, that it's time to take me and my partners a break . The archive and news feeds will remain online. New work here on a regular basis could resume in a more positive environment.
It's worth noting that in the not too distant past, there were a plethora of Internet providers competing to provide service. The Internet began as a free and open frontier that was sufficiently self regulated. Hacks served to improve security. Existing laws regarding property both physical and intellectual worked surprisingly well when our so called protectors elected to apply them.
Over the last few years, government "internet regulation" has given itself the authority to peer into our lives in ways never imagined even by the most cynical of futurists. Under the guise of security, protecting American jobs and even the shameful claim of protecting children, the over reach continues. The new police state need not rely on nosy neighbors to keep the masses in line. The police state has been upgraded to a surveillance state. This has happened by stealth as major new outlets are only too happy to report an endless stream of distractions instead of informing us.
We have seen the access duopoly continue to evolve towards a new, less competitive duopoly, with cable controlling fixed line access and the telcos controlling wireless. We will like see telcos continue to abandon more of their fixed line customers, freeing the cable guys to do what they will with us. Wireless remains marginally competitive, but AT&T and Verizon are on a campaign to lock up all available spectrum. None of this could have happened without direct involvement of the government. To be clear, American internet access is not a product of free enterprise. It has become at best crony enterprise headed towards fascist enterprise.
Fascist enterprise has also overtaken intellectual property. While the Internet promised to set information free, those who profited from the control of intellectual property have sought and taken control of much of that freedom. The formerly common practice of loaning a book or recording to a friend has become criminalized and the common practice of moving media you have paid for from one device to another could get you in trouble. Even creatives who seek to give away their work are under threat. Government hates the free flow of information even more that the media oligarchs. The internet has made it much easier to expose disinformation and a plethora of other dirty deeds that have flowed freely from Washington without question in the past.
There is hope. The change we hoped for at the last election cycle has proven to be yet another grand ruse. A new cycle is upon us. Establishment pols are being challenged in party primaries at an unprecidented rate. To be clear. the establishment in both political parties is the problem. Their talking points are carefully constructed to distract us from our loss of freedom. We still have a vote, and the real point of change is in the primaries. Voting in a primary is the quickest way to unseat the establishment. Waiting to vote for establishment candidates in the general election will only perpetuate the existing way of doing business.
There is still hope in creating alternative access. Wifi could evolve to provide competing wireless service and municipalities can grant open access to or make use of existing right of ways for fixed service. Getting involved is the price to pay for this freedom.
Even if you prefer using commercial software and hardware products, supporting open source with time and cash will insure that the marketplace remains competitive. The same goes for creative works. You don't have to boycott the blockbuster movie, music or written work to make an impact as long as you also support independent artists. In fact you could find it rewarding to do a little creating yourself. If we are all content creators, regulating the flow of ideas and information will be impossible for even the most intrusive government.
If and when the outlook becomes more positive, I'll be back.
Solving the problem of getting broadband to the sparse population of the Australian outback could help advance wireless communications everywhere. It's impossible to justify the cost of fiber infrastructure to serve a small number of subscribers over a very long haul. Microwave has always been a viable solution, but it has had bandwidth limitations that increase exponentially over distance, making it more appropriatate for 3G cell towers than for modern broadband service.
Australian researchers claim that they have advanced microwave technology to provide 10GBPS over of distances of 30 miles.
CSIRO has begun talks with global manufacturers to commercialise microwave technology it says can provide at least 10 Gbps symmetric backhaul services to mobile towers.
The project, funded out of the Science and Industry Endowment Fund and a year in planning, could provide a ten-fold increase in the speed of point-to-point microwave transmission systems within two years, according to project manager, Dr Jay Guo. (IT News)
If this technology proves to be commercially viable, it could extend the reach of wireless broadband and improve mobile service everywhere by providing cheap, high bandwidth backhaul.
There are still a number of performance issues that will continue to keep microwave in the role of second choice to fixed line backhaul. Most significant are very long latency and and interference from weather. Current understanding of the laws of physics dictates that these limitations can't be overcome. Perhaps we'll see these laws revised with future developments.
The discussion of increasingly draconian intellectual property laws isn't exact new at Third Pipe. Manipulation of the political process, bureaucracies and the courts has created a whole new class of oligarchies in our society. It's one of the foremost reasons why it's all but impossible for a new competitor to enter mature, research intensive businesses. Governmental grants of exclusive rights to common design elements that have existed for ages like Apple's newly patented slide to unlock function have perverted intellectual property law to erect overwhelming barriers to any worthy rival interested in competing.
Even crushing barriers can inspire human ingenuity. As lawyers and Oligarchs continued to manipulate law to squelch outsiders. a few freedom loving rebels established the open source movement. When there's no profit from intellectual property alone and no owner of that property, patent trolling becomes difficult if not impossible. This frees creative people to innovate with impunity with larger communities of contributors that enrich the process. That's likely why most successful software startups founded in the last decade have managed an open source product rather than a commercial one. That trend is rapidly moving into hardware, with new projects beginning to challenge closed architecture products. Commodity manufacturers are likely to continue to produce more products using open source technology due to reduced R&D costs and faster time to market.
This takes us to the world of pharmaceutical development. Big Pharma is a dominant yet seldom mentioned player in big push to criminalize the free exchange of information and technology via new patent laws. Like the entertainment industry, the drug peddlers have become flat, bloated and stagnant. Industry consolidation forced by laws that unfairly favor the establishment has stifled innovation leaving it without promising new products in the pipeline. Many of the most profitable (and expensive) drugs are going out of patent in the near future freeing them to be produced by rivals and sold for pennies. The likely passage of new laws to extend patents will only bring more stagnation. Fortunately, a few industry rebels are embracing the open source movement:
When Tomasz Sablinski was working in pharmaceutical R&D, he was often frustrated by the demand for secrecy in the clinical trials process—a misdirected effort, he says, to keep competitors in the dark about what drug companies were up to. "The price you pay when you hide what you're doing is you only get feedback from a precious few people," he says. "There is very little new blood in the ideation process."
Then Sablinski read an article about the open-source operating system Linux and he had an epiphany. "If said, 'If computer coders can do open source, so can drug developers,'" he recalls. "You have to add patients to the mix, because they're really the reason you're doing drug development." (more at Xconomy)
This is worth watching…. and supporting. If the likely roadblocks that Big Pharma's cronies at the FDA can be overcome. we could see real breakthroughs in the drug business. Not just from the application of fresh new ideas. Open Source means many sources for the final product with good, healthy competition. That could bring a real breakthrough in healthcare by doing an end run around the political and industry establishment that has kept prices high and innovation low.
It's no secret that the Telcos have major pull in Congress. Review any representative's list of top campaign donors and you are more likely then not to find them at the top. It's also no secret that AT&T and Verizon see a perfect world where they control all of the public airwaves. We've heard endless hand ringing in Congress about how bad wireless service is directly connected to too little spectrum in the control of carriers.
What they don't mention is as much as half of the licensed spectrum in held major markets by the top two carriers isn't even being used. There's also no mention of repurposing any of that fallow spectrum for broadband like is being proposed for broadcast bands. Even if spectrum was lacking, increasing tower density can overcome virtually all capacity problems. None of this makes much sense unless we understand that the real issue isn't the need for more spectrum to provide better service. It's to gain control of the wireless last mile and effectively end competition.
Acting in the public interest to facilitate better service is not what this debate is about. After gaining control of more than half of the fixed line right of ways to the last mile, the two major telco's slowed infrastructure improvements to a snails pace. That's created an America with substandard broadband at some of the highest prices in the world. They have the same plan for wireless. By controlling all of the spectrum and consolidating into two companies, the non competitive broadband duopoly will be extended into the wireless space.
The House of Representatives wants to take control of spectrum auctions. They want us to believe that the FCC is acting to slowly to resolve that the completely fabricated "spectrum crisis". According to former FCC chair Reed Hundt, the bill would end competition: (more…)
While Microsoft isn't exactly hurting, the company has had very mixed success entering new markets for some time. In fact, without the OS and Office cash cows, it's failures would have torpedoed most companies. One thing Ballmer and company do seem to have is tenacity. That tenacity can be seen in action with Windows Phone.
Windows Phone is a well executed smart handset platform that came to market a little to late. It's also lacks any real advantage over the established Apple and Android platforms. Add to that the obstacle a its licensing fee and there's not much to make Windows Phone compelling to potential manufacturing partners. That gives Android a price advantage while Apple holds the overpriced designer label space. Microsoft has tried to remove that disadvantage by patent trolling Android manufacturers, with mixed success. There are also rumors that the company could acquire the ailing Nokia, likely giving Windows Phone a stable hardware partner. None of this will open any shelf space for MS as long as devices are joined at the hip to service plans that are sold exclusively by carriers.
That brings us to Skype. The VoIP company that Ebay notoriously overpaid for, was acquired for far less by Microsoft last year.The company is currently testing an app that will add the mostly free to talk service to Windows Phone 8. Tight integration of Skype into the Windows Phone OS has the potential to accelerate the end of by the minute mobile voice plans forever. That is assuming the carriers cooperate. While the mobile hardware space continues to become more crowded, the carrier space is not with incumbents scrambling to consolidate. Despite what we keep being told, mobile data is enormously profitable. That profitability is eclipsed by the margins on voice by the minute and messaging. Without major changes in the wireless connection business, Skype will do nothing to improve Windows Phone's fortunes. (more…)
While they folded under public pressure to table SOPA and ProtectIP, most of Congress and the Obama administration are on board with the ACTA treaty. Currently being negotiated, this radioactive attack on the free and open Internet also puts individual liberty, the right to due process and the very existence any sovereign nation in the crosshairs.
Even if the president goes rogue and signs (which is likely). ACTA cannot be legally enacted without ratification by the Senate and passing constitutional muster in the courts. Neither the Senate or the courts will act in our interest without a public outcry. The war has just begun, and our freedom is at stake. Please write your representatives.
As one whose livelyhood and fortunes have gone from boom to bust over my lifetime, I can attest that living on the cutting edge of technology can disrupt fortunes and futures. As an individual of modest means, my only choice has been to adapt.
The power of basic computing and open networks has revolutionized and democratized. That has threatened the business of governmental tyranny and the big media oligarchy. They will use brute force to hold onto power rather than adapt to take advantage of new technology. The them, the lions share of a shrinking pie is preferable to a dominant position in a rising tide that lifts all fortunes.
New media author and self publishing pioneer Cory Doctorow presents a bleak reality that can only be overcome by the diligence of the average citizen.
After announcing that SOPA would be delayed until 2012, it's hearing date and potential vote has been quietly rescheduled to 12/21/2011. While SOPA claims to help stop piracy, it also gives DHS even greater ability to act without due process. Even if that wasn't a violation of the 4th amendment, DHS has a horrible record of abusing the power it already has. It's time to once again call our representatives to remind them they are sworn by oath to protect the constitution.

A baby with the flu can run a temperature, sometimes as high as 105 degrees F taken rectally. A fever of 106.5 degrees F is a serious medical risk in itself, says Dr. Abramson.
In babies younger than 3 months, a fever of 100.4 degrees F or higher rectally can be a sign of serious illness. If you have questions about the flu or your child's fever, call your doctor.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this--but anyway, I have 3 cats who stay inside all the time, and 2 who stay outside all the time. I put out a can of food for them, and some hard stuff for later when they get hungry. Just as soon as the inside cats get through with the canned food, roaches jump in. Some times I go in the kitchen and the bowl is full of roaches. I scare them away and kill all I can with a fly swat. I'm scared to use Raid Ant and Roach Killer because of the cats, but these roaches are getting out of hand. How can I get rid of them without making the cats sick. If I spray Raid on the floor, the cats will get it on their feet and lick them and---who knows? What can I get to to kill the roaches with that won't harm my cats? The roaches are getting in other rooms also, last night in bed, I felt something crawling on me, under the covers. It was a roach! I hate those things! What can I do? Thanks. | |||
Sounds like an infestation. I would sure hire a professional to deal with it. They will spray/bo-mb the house, and you and any pets will need to leave for a few hours. But I think this would be the best and most effective treatment. | ||||
Thanks. That does sound like the best thing to do. I'll try that. They are really getting out of hand. | ||||
Whatever the cost, your health and peace of mind (including sleep) will be so worth it. They get into places where you cannot get DIY spray. Assume you are in a home, not apartment? If this is a recent infestation, they might have moved in from an adjoining unit or home. Be very cautious about bringing in or storing any cardboard boxes that are not brand new. They love to hide and lay eggs in the corrugation. | ||||
It is a battle! I agree with hiring a professional. You will have to have your house treated every three months - because of hatching eggs. I helped someone with their home (seems like a lifetime ago now). The house was infested to the point that when you open the cabinet doors, they jumped on you. Gigantic, big, small, teeny, and everything in between. Creepy crawlies galore! 1. Seal any food stuff in containers...metal, plastic, etc. Cereal, dry catfood, crackers, etc. Roaches can chew through plastic bags, boxes, etc. It's a good time to go through your pantry and throw away out-dated and stale foods. 2. Put away all food immediately. This includes the catfood. Stay with them while they eat. When they walk off...refrigerate the leftovers or dispose of outside immediately. 3. Clean your kitchen. Leave no uncovered food out. Wash dishes at the end of each meal. Clean the strainer in the sink. Take all trash and garbage out NOW and do not let it accumulate inside the house. I helped someone once. The wife went to the nursing home after a 9 month stay in the hospital. I put away all non-essential kitchen items in their storage building. ALL packaged food went in the refrigerator - cereal, crackers, etc. Since I had been asked to help, I threatened the husband to keep the kitchen immaculate! or I would not help. (Told him to tell his daughter to feed her dog at home and not put out any dogfood at all...she visited for an hour or two several times a week and was afraid her watermelon-on-toothpicks of a dog would starve before getting her home...but that's another story.) Bottom line, you just cannot leave anything out for them to eat. Roaches can find enough of that on their own without having a banquet thrown for them. In the end, 9 months down the road when I met the exterminator for the third time to let him in the house, he told me that he had been spraying that house ever 3 months for years and had it not been for me he would still be spraying (yep, patting myself on the back). Now...if my son would only listen to what I tell him about roaches...

I think everyone has had this issue at sometime in their life.Years ago I moved into an Apartment.I started seeing some.I bought this product Combat,it's in a needle looking tube and used other spray to kill eggs.Easy instructions and did the job. Also Boric Acid,powder form is wonderful and NOT harmful to animals or babies.It works by the bugs crawlng in the podwer and tracking back to the other bugs.Then the acid eats away the shell-body and k*lls them.So they crawl on other bugs it k*lls them too.Keeps on working even if more eggs hatch.We use this today,even though we moved in to this home when newly built 13 yrs.ago.Just to make sure no creepy bugs try to invade. There are new products made today that are safe for pets and children.And no bad smell either.I dont like the bombsprays.You have to wash EVERYTHING afterwards,from walls,cabinets,bed covers,ect.Too much work.They can explode,saw this on news last year.A ladys home exploded when she left.And another women set off bombspray too,she had 2 small babies,she left came home and(didnt air out her home)went to bed.She woke up next morning and one child passed away from breathing in the chemicals.This message has been edited.

I only know of one tried and true method to get rid of roaches, and that is to hire a pest control company that will come and spray monthly- like Orkin. It has been many years since we needed to do this, but back then they sprayed once a month. It might have changed, but you definitley need a professional, I can tell you from experience that you will spend as much money, if not more buying sprays trying to do it yourself than if you just call an exterminator from the start, and you will never really rid your home of an infestation without them anyway- good luck to you. | ||||
Just a little info that I read a long time ago.... One drop of grease will sustain one roach for one year. That's why everything has to be kept CLEAN! "The soil is the source of life, creativity, culture and real independence." David Ben-Gurion | ||||
Call Billy the Exterminator. I'd call a pro cuz I agree with the other posters. They're nearly impossible to get rid of any other way. Good luck. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I've decided to quit my job, drop out of society, and wear live animals as hats." | ||||
I agree to hire a professional BUT make sure they understand that you have inside pets to make sure that they make the right choice re method. Ask them for references for other customers that have indoor pets to let them know that you are serious that any chemicals used are "pet-safe." And during the "procedure" and for several hours after, you will need to remove ALL of the cats from the home - is this "doeable" for you? You will need at least 3-4 cat carriers (since you have 6 cats) and an air-conditioned car! If you can manage that, then go for it! Roaches have no place in our homes but sometimes they make one anyway! Goes without saying that, once the infestation is gone, that you need to keep everything spotlessly clean... but there is no need to quit feeding your cats on the floor! Get rid of the infestation and start over! Good Luck and let us know how it goes! PS. The cat food isn't the problem - the roaches are already there and are attracted by any food; get rid of the roaches = problem solved!This message has been edited.

A motel for the night - if affordable - is a good solution. The pets have to be fed. Just when they are finished...put up the leftovers and wash the bowls. Same as we should do when we get through eating.

There was a horrible roach infestation in a house we were supposed to move into about 26 yrs. ago. I found an exterminator who also sprayed all the hospitals in a 50-60 mile radius. What he used was safer than most of the stuff you can purchase for DIY. Don't remember the name of it but it got rid of them & kept them gone. He sprayed once a week for 4 weeks, then once a month for 6 months and then we went to twice a year. Former tenants had let them take over as well as fleas. This was down here in the heat/humidity where they seem to breed faster than up north. "The soil is the source of life, creativity, culture and real independence." David Ben-Gurion | ||||
I have also heard that living in the south or warm all year climates greatly increases the chances of insect infestations. This is one advantage to living where it freezes part of the year, the other is some weather to look forward to, after the beastly hot summer some areas have had. | ||||
There are also some kinds of plants that harbor cockroaches such as Cabbage Palms. I've also "heard" but not confirmed, that cockroach eggs are present in the paper bags one may bring home from the grocery store. | ||||
Just want to add that the spray the professional used in our house was safe for our pets. In fact, our dog was allergic to most flea products, but not to the spray he used in our house. He would actually spray her when he came and he would leave some extra spray for us to use inbetween his visits. That was during rhe summer we fought fleas and finally won! | ||||
They can also be in the produce you bring in from the store. Don't just bring a bag of potatoes in the house and put bag and all in your potato storage spot. For years, I've set the bag of potatoes outside. Go in and get my 'potato basket.' Open the bag and put the potatoes in the basket one at a time. The plastic grocery bags can also have vermin eggs in them. It's a dirty world out there! My son had such an infestation at one time that when he came to visit I would not let him bring his luggage/duffel in my house. He left it on the screened in porch...brought his clothes in and popped them in the washing machine. THEN the clothes were permitted in the bedroom. Luggage stayed outside. When I see one roach - the ultra-cleaning and spraying starts! Nasty little buggers.

I have some steps on getting rid of the cockroaches in your home. This might be helpful before you hire a professional. The link is wikihow.com/Get-Rid-of-Roaches. Natineah Andy | ||||
We do our own spraying. We shop at a store that only sells pesticides. We use demon and mix it by the directions on container. We spray every 2 months or longer depending. if we see them on patio or in garage, it is time to spray. It works great. I do put every sugar bag,flour, cookies, etc. into another plastic bag leaving it in the original bag but inserting it into another for double protection.Good luck! html | ||||
I looked around the 'net a bit for a good answer and this looks like an intelligent discussion to join. Glad you're all here. Like you all, I am very careful to keep attractants to a minimum. I live in Miami where indoor insects are a constant. Fortunately, I have never had a roach problem. I was traumatized in childhood by roach infestations, so the sight of just one in my home sends me over the edge. Recently, a friend was moving and she gave me her wii game system. She warned me that is was probably infested with roaches, so I brought it home, poured roach killing powder into a plastic bag and placed the wii in the bag, and then tied it tight. I checked on it a week later and there was evidence of roaches and dead nymphs. And holes in the bottom of the bag. Rewrapped it. Two weeks later and there is fresh evidence, plus an empty egg shell. Again, rewrapped it in a fresh bag, with fresh poison, tied the bag and then bagged it in a 2nd bag and tied it. I let it sit for four weeks. Finally, I took it out, sat outside with it and gave it a good shaking and then cleaned it down with orange oil (goo gone). I figured four weeks, that had to be enough time for any eggs to hatch out. Then I realized that I am missing some of the cords, so I placed the wii into a shoe box while I order new cords for it. In the week or so since, I have been seeing small roaches in the bathroom. This can't be coincidence, but for goodness sakes, I kept that thing wrapped tight in bags of poison for four weeks! I opened the shoe box, and yeah, there were new roaches in the box. I taped the box shut and wrapped it in a bag with poison in it, again. So, on to the question. I can't find this out on the web, so far. Does anyone know if eggs can go dormant? Or if an adult can live inside the machine for weeks...thought it takes two to make the egg viable, doesn't it. And, how the heck can I clean this thing out once and for all? When I found the roaches in the box I started shaking. I am at the point where I am thinking I will need to throw it away. My little boy was so happy to be getting a wii, and it is an expensive machine. Does anyone have a good answer for this?This message has been edited. Last edited by: victorial, | ||||
I think putting it all in the freezer may be an answer. The eggs and roaches surely cannot survive freezing temps for 24 hours. | ||||
The moisture in the freezer will not destroy the electronics? I guess at this stage, since I am close to trashing the whole thing anyway, the freezer is as good as any solution. But, does freezing kill eggs, too? I can google that one, I think. Thanks, Conrad. I will try it. | ||||
I am thinking a lot of home freezers often don't get super cold? You need temps below zero (or a longer time) to kill off the eggs by freezing. I would put the electronics, cords, any paperwork you want to keep with it in a plastic bag and place it in the freezer for at least 5 days. Paper items, boxes and such are often places where the egg pouches will be left. | ||||

Of course I only had the camera out when the sun was shining and (more pertinently) when I wasn't paddling for my life.
We had strong winds in the first couple of days, making the crossing to Herm fairly lively, and the crossing to Sark the next day only slightly less so.
The 3.45-am-on-the-water shots should also tell you that we paddled when the wind forecast was favourable, rather than when was convenient to us...this was the crossing back from Alderney.

Hohner selects ARC for project
Hohner, Inc, recently selected the Greater Richmond ARC to package more that 5,000 Blues Band harps for sale nationwide in music outlets. This is the third year that Hohner, a worldwide manufacturer and supplier of musical instruments with its U.S. headquarters in Richmond, has selected ARC (a not-for-profit organization that serves people with developmental disabilities) for a project. The work is being carried out by adults with special needs in ARC's Industrial Services program (including John Gentry, pictured). Providing opportunities for individuals with developmental disabilities is especially critical as employment opportunities are fewer for those with disabilities than for those without, says the organization. "We are delighted to have the opportunity to serve Hohner while providing training and work for individuals with developmental disabilities," added ARC's director of business development, Michael Foley. |
