Hot Rod's BBQ is hard to miss in somewhat sleepy Lutz, Fla. The yard is littered with folksy, hand-painted sculptures and signs. There's a ramshackle front porch and smoke billowing out the side.
When I walked in, I was a vegetarian. But then I ate the fruit bat.
We came to Hot Rod's at the end of a long day traveling through Hillsborough County and talking to voters for Morning Edition's series First and Main. Lutz is just north of Tampa, in this county that could be key in deciding the upcoming presidential race.
The restaurant is quite a place: wood paneling, knickknacks galore, a wall of hot sauces and plenty of sass on the menu: You can order "Swamp Salad" or "Red Neck Prime Rib" (Spam).
On a Thursday evening, the place was packed. Rod "Hot Rod" Gaudin wasted no time ordering up a dozen wings with his new "Hot Sticky Sauce." He said he hoped we'd do more eating than talking, and we dove in, trying not to get that sauce all over our microphones.
"There was a time when I was running for public office, I'd love to talk," he said. "Now I'd rather eat."
Gaudin unsuccessfully ran for Hillsborough County commissioner three times: as a Democrat in the '80s, unaffiliated in 2002, and as a Republican in 2004 — a swing politician in a county of swing voters. That is, he used to swing. These days he describes himself as a diehard Republican. He said the country has been doing badly with President Obama as the quarterback, and it's time to get someone new in the game.
"I'm not in love with that man," he said of GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney. "But I do know what Obama's done, and I have never in my 60-some years of life had the lack of confidence, the lack of security, the lack of inspiration."
He plans to vote for Romney in November.
Gaudin's wife, Helen, is undecided. She's a registered Democrat, but she voted for Republican John McCain in 2008. "I vote for the person that I feel might do us the best, regardless of what party he comes from," she said. "I don't want Obama and I don't want Romney, so I don't know."
The last few years have had their rough patches for the family. Helen Gaudin lost her job as an insurance customer service representative after 27 years working at the same place. She found a new job, but she says she makes half of what she made a few years ago.
The economy has also taken a toll on Hot Rod's. "Construction workers were 50 percent of our business," Rod Gaudin said. When construction in the region stalled and workers lost their jobs, "it knocked us between the eyeballs. I'm gonna tell you something: When you don't make money, you don't go out to eat too much. You cut back fast."
Still, as we talked, families piled into the seats at the quirky restaurant. When time came for us to order dinner, despite years of relatively faithful vegetarianism, I got the smoked fruit bat, served over corn bread pudding. I was determined to try it in the name of cultural experience. (Even though, I learned, it's not a Central Florida specialty; it's just something the Gaudins ate while traveling in South America.) Rod Gaudin told me when he first opened, he included it on the menu as a conversation starter, although it holds its own in sales against more recognizable appetizers.
Now, it's been many years since I ate meat, so my palate is probably unrefined in this respect, but here goes: It tasted — you guessed it — like chicken. Maybe closest to dark meat chicken, but a bit more gamy and a bit sweet.
Gaudin said the sweetness comes from soaking the bat in cherry juice so it tastes less wild. I should mention that Gaudin was quite a cutup; when talking about the restaurant's unconventional fare, it was often hard to tell when he was pulling my leg.
As far as I know, I ate a bat, and should you be tempted, be warned that it's not for the faint of heart. It wasn't pretty — it looked like a strange pigeon or a quail. Eating it was a slow and bony undertaking, and there wasn't a lot of meat. But I think it was worth it.
The sauce made it. I would have eaten anything covered in that sauce.

Art & Illustration
An illustration is a visual approach to a verbal story.
Is there any difference between art and illustration? In an illustration, there is little, if anything, for the viewer to do. All the information is there available for the viewer to see. There can be several themes at once but it precisely includes all the visual information the audience is expected to use upon viewing it. Illustration is easily given words to express it that are appropriate to it. Art is something else and represents a more interactive form of visual communication. It does require something from the viewer in order to be recognized. Art is not intended as a verbal communication represented in a visual format.

Ubuntu Hardy Installation Guide
For most users it won't be necessary to go into installation and configuration details of the driver. Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy) provides a notification saying that there are restricted drivers available. You just have to go there (Restricted Drivers Manager) and enable the "ATI accelerated graphics driver". Ubuntu will then install and configure the driver for you. If this does not provide the optimal solution you were looking for, please read ahead.
After installation, in GNOME or Kubuntu, turn off visual effects or you will notice a flicker in OpenGL.
Method 1: Install the driver the Ubuntu Way
This will install the current driver in Ubuntu's repository. It is older than the one AMD has released, but will be supported by the Ubuntu people. Catalyst 8.3 is in the repositories.
Terminal Command |
$ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-generic restricted-manager $ sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx $ sudo depmod -a |
The second line may not be necessary as you may already have restricted modules installed. Run it just in case. If the third line fails, you probably don't have the restricted repository enabled. See Pre-Installation.
After this, you may need to edit Xorg.conf:
Terminal Command |
$ sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf |
In the device section, if it is not already there add:
File: /etc/X11/xorg.conf |
Driver "fglrx" |
Then to make sure Xorg is set up correctly, you'll have to let aticonfig "initialize" it:
Terminal Command |
$ sudo aticonfig --initial -f |
After this you should be able to restart your computer and have the driver working. To test type
Terminal Command |
$ fglrxinfo |
into a terminal. If the vendor string is not ATI, but Mesa, check #Removing Mesa drivers
Post-Installation Tweaks
To enable hardware accelerated video on pre-R500 cards, edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf to include the following lines without [...]
File: /etc/X11/xorg.conf |
Section "Device"
EndSection |
Note that when Visual Effects (Compiz) are active, flickering and artifacts may occur in OpenGL applications and hardware accelerated video windows (particularly with R300 chipset). To prevent this, disable Visual Effects.
On newer cards the options below enables Visual Effects and video to be played without flicker. The Textured video option can be turned on, but this can cause flicker or diagonal artifacts when playing videos.
File: /etc/X11/xorg.conf |
Section "Device"
EndSection |
Method 2: Manual Install Method
Make sure universe and multiverse are enabled in your repository sources.
1. Install necessary build tools and libraries
Terminal Command |
$ sudo apt-get update # If you are using the x86_64 architecture (64 bit, earlier known as amd64), install ia32-libs as well: $ sudo apt-get install ia32-libs |
2. Download the latest Catalyst package.
Download page: Catalyst 15.12. This package contains both the 32-bit and 64-bit driver.
Open a terminal window and switch to the directory you downloaded the installer to.
For example:
cd Desktop
or just use wget:
Terminal Command |
$ wget http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/radeon-crimson-15.12-15.302-151217a-297685e.zip |
3. Create .deb packages.
Terminal Command |
$ chmod +x radeon-crimson-15.12-15.302-151217a-297685e.zip $ sh radeon-crimson-15.12-15.302-151217a-297685e.zip --buildpkg Ubuntu/hardy |
("hardy" is not a typo)
4. Add driver to kernel module blacklist.
NOTE: This step is no longer necessary with fglrx 8.10 or 8.12. Just jump to step 5 in that case.
The ATI driver must be added to the kernel module blacklist so that the new ATI driver will be used. If it is not blacklisted, the official Ubuntu repository version of the ATI driver will be loaded instead.
Terminal Command |
$ sudo gedit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common |
Add "fglrx" to the line "DISABLED_MODULES"
File: /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common |
DISABLED_MODULES="fglrx" |
Please note that after the modification above, the "Restricted Driver Manager" will signal "ATI accelerated graphics driver" not enabled (unticked). This is perfectly correct. At the end of the installation procedure it will signal in Status: "in use" (green light), but NOT enabled. It simply means that the fglrx module contained in the linux-restricted-modules package is not enabled, but another fglrx module (15.12) is in use.
You may also need to edit the file(s) (if they exist):
Terminal Command |
$ sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-restricted $ sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-local |
Put a # in front of the line "blacklist fglrx", if it is present. Otherwise, the kernel module will not load automatically, and you will not get 3D acceleration.
5. Install .debs.
For 32 Bits
Terminal Command |
$ sudo dpkg -i xorg-driver-fglrx_8.593-0ubuntu1_i386.deb fglrx-kernel-source_8.593-0ubuntu1_i386.deb fglrx-amdcccle_8.593-0ubuntu1_i386.deb |
Using tab completion can make this command easier.
Starting Catalyst version 8.10, installing the following package ensures compatibility with restricted drivers' manager:
Terminal Command |
$ sudo dpkg -i fglrx-modaliases_8.593-0ubuntu1_i386.deb |
64 bit systems should have the same behaviour.
Terminal Command |
sudo dpkg -i fglrx-modaliases_8.593-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb |
For 64 Bits
Terminal Command |
$ sudo dpkg -i xorg-driver-fglrx_8.593-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb fglrx-kernel-source_8.593-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb fglrx-amdcccle_8.593-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb |
Using tab completion can make this command easier.
Additional 64-bit instructions
If you have a 64 bit install, the above dpkg command may complain that "Errors were encountered while processing: fglrx-amdcccle". This is because of a dependency of the amdccle package on 32 bit libraries. If you receive this error, issue the following command after the above dpkg command, which will force the installation of all of the 32 bit dependencies, and then the amdccle package:
Terminal Command |
$ sudo apt-get install -f |
Catalyst 15.12 on 64-bit systems requires the --force-overwrite command in the above dpkg command:
Terminal Command |
$ sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite xorg-driver-fglrx_8.593*.deb fglrx-kernel-source_8.593-0*.deb fglrx-amdcccle_8.593-0*.deb |
When installing the packages, if xorg-driver-fglrx_8.593 fails to install due to a diverted file conflict, you can fix the package with this procedure.
Fix for an error:
If you are having this error:
dpkg-shlibdeps: failure: couldn't find library libfglrx_gamma.so.1 needed by debian/xorg-driver-fglrx/usr/bin/fglrx_xgamma (its RPATH is '').
Fix it by doing the following:
Terminal Command |
$ sudo sh radeon-crimson-15.12-15.302-151217a-297685e.zip --extract driver |
If you get this error from modprobe fglrx:
ERROR: firegl_stub_register failed
Fix it by doing:
Terminal Command |
$ sudo rmmod radeon |
Finishing the Install: Configuration
If you've used fglrx previously, you will not need to do this. Run
sudo aticonfig --initial -f
Now you'll likely have to edit your xorg.conf (even if just to confirm the above command added the apropriate fglrx line):
sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
and add the following line to the Device section (if it does not already exist). Include the following lines without [...]:
Section "Device" [...] Driver "fglrx" [...] EndSection
Make the appropriate changes to "TexturedVideo" and "Overlay", etc., as described above in the "automatic section". Save and exit, then in a terminal. If it does not error you should be fine.
Some people find that changes to xorg.conf don't get used by the driver. To force the ati driver to adopt changes made to xorg.conf, type the following command:
sudo aticonfig --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf --tls=1
Finally, reboot the computer and type
into the terminal. If the vendor string contains ATI, you have installed the driver successfully. Release 8.8 looks like:
display: :0.0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc. OpenGL renderer string: Radeon X1950 Series OpenGL version string: 2.1.7873 Release
Please note: Depending on the particular ATI card that you own, you may or may not automatically have all of the relevant driver features enabled. R500 and R600 cards (X1xxx, HD series, and newer) in particular will need TexturedVideo enabled in Xorg.conf (rather than the traditional VideoOverlay) in order to support Xv accelerated video playback.
Removing Mesa drivers
If fglrxinfo reports that Indirect rendering by Mesa is in place, even though you have installed ATI driver, check:
- Remove the package xserver-xgl.
sudo apt-get remove xserver-xgl
- Explanation: If you installed this previously in order to make compiz work, it will not allow direct rendering on your display. You can check out if this is what it causing the problem by running
DISPLAY=:0 glxinfo | grep render
- If it returns an ATI renderer, it means that xgl is being displayed indirectly on the display 1. (Taken from [1])
- Warning: This might make your compiz stop working as it is configured to use XGL. A solution might be to run the Envy script in order to configure compiz. Or, if Compiz stopped working due to "Composite" problem, check that the following is set in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "Enable" EndSection
- Check for AGP and DRI errors in /var/log/Xorg.0.log like these are:
- (EE) fglrx(0): [agp] unable to acquire AGP, error -1023
- (EE) fglrx(0): cannot init AGP
- (EE) fglrx(0): atiddxDriScreenInit failed, GPS not been initialized.
- (WW) fglrx(0): * DRI initialization failed! *
- If you have Intel 8285P and E7205 chipsets and AGP not detected then you have to remove the i82875p_edac module and restart a some others:
rmmod i82875p_edac rmmod fglrx rmmod intel-agp rmmod agpgart modprobe agpgart modprobe intel-agp modprobe fglrx
- Blacklist the modules e7xxx_edac so it doesn't start up again when booting - add the following line at the beginning of /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist:
blacklist i82875p_edac
- This has been known to fix issues with -Mesa -AGP -DRI -Google earth and -suspend to RAM (s2ram).
- Explanation: http://openwetware.org/wiki/Computing/Linux/Ubuntu
- Check you are running the correct kernel.
- Explanation: If you're upgrading from Gutsy to Hardy in some instances the Grub bootloader does not get updated and the new kernel is not loaded.
- Run in a terminal:
Terminal Command |
$ uname -r |
- If the output starts with 2.6.22 or below you are not using the current kernel and the Ati drivers will not load properly.
If this doesn't help, try Ubuntu Gutsy Installation Guide#Verifying, or other links: [2], [3], [4].
Specific Issues
Segmentation Fault with glxinfo/fglrxinfo
If you experience such errors (and have glxinfo report "Direct rendering" as No despite following the whole procedure without any errors) you may want to have a look at the Specific Issues chapter of the Ubuntu Gutsy Installation Guide [[5]] as this may be due to missing links or wrong permissions.
That's cleared my thuohgts. Thanks for contributing.
Suspend hibernation works with the latest driver.
For ATI X1400, to get the laptop to wake up from suspend, I had to change the following in /etc/default/acpi-support:
SAVE_VBE_STATE=false POST_VIDEO=false ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE=false
For Radeon 3200, to wake up from suspend, I had to add the following lines to /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
(This settings is not good option, if you are using compiz-fusion or any other transparency-based thingie. Not working for HD 3850)
Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "Disable" EndSection Section "ServerFlags" Option "AIGLX" "off" EndSection
Resume from suspend failed when using dual monitor configuration in xorg.conf. E.g. when using
aticonfig --initial=dual-head --screen-layout=right
Switching back to a single monitor configuration and restarting the xserver (though not beautiful) solves this.
Error! This module/version combo is already installed
Simply uninstall the previous version before installing the new one with
sudo dkms remove -m fglrx -v 8.522 --all

Technology and Young Children: School-Age Children
You are here
Effective Classroom Practice: School-Age Children
Selected Examples of Effective Classroom Practice Involving Technology Tools and Interactive Media (PDF)
It is during the early school-age years that children begin to use the tools of their society with competence. In our culture, that typically means learning to read and write, calculate, and investigate. Children use books, touch screens, writing instruments, and tools for studying scientific and social concepts. As digital technologies increasingly become the tools that older children and adults use in their work and home lives, younger children seek to emulate this usage, first through imitation and representational play and then later through mastery of the tools for their own self-expression and learning. New web-based technologies allow the child to be the producer of the technology, adding to the appropriateness, motivation, and usability of technology tools.
Technology Tools and Interactive Media
- Explore a wide range of quality interactive media experiences, on a variety of platforms. These include literacy software, games, and technologies that go beyond drill and practice and foster creativity.
- Use Web 2.0 tools for writing, collaboration, and playful experimentation.
- Include a range of assistive technology devices to expand access for children with special needs.
- Include language-translation software and keyboard adaptations for dual language learners.
- Provide geometry software that allows children to explore the concept of shape by stretching, bending, shrinking, or combining images.
- Use interactive digital games as a way to explore math, reading, social studies, and science concepts.
- Provide digital microscopes and other digital tools for investigation.
- Encourage children to become proficient in using digital tools such as cameras, scanners, recorders, and editing software.
- Use technology tools to connect with other children in their communities or globally using e-mail, blogs, or video conferencing.

Personal papers of Gloria Davis
- Fundos
- 1972 - 2004
The papers relate almost exclusively to Indonesia. They include her dissertation and its background data survey sheets. The papers also include background information on all the Indonesia projects in which Davis was involved between 1978 and 1986, including correspondence, subject files, data survey sheets, statistics and computer printouts of statistical analyses. The files on one project in Fiji are included. Davis obtained many official Indonesian government documents during the years when her focuswas on Indonesia. These are found both in correspondence and data files as well as in the set of reports in Bahasa Indonesian. Davis maintained a set of speeches, articles and monographs, mainly about Indonesia, that were written by colleagues. She also maintained sets of publications on Indonesian topics from various research institutions in Indonesia and other countries. The files do not include correspondence with family and friends. No photographs are included. The files are of interest primarilyto students of the history of Indonesia and to the study of migration. The raw data collections are particularly valuable.
Davis, Gloria

Help your child find new friends
Anxiety is something that exists in everyone's life to a certain extent, and in a way it is medically known to be helpful as well. Because, anxiety helps us stay alert and be reactive to our circumstances, whether joyful or painful. However, when the anxiety reaches the stage where it overwhelms you mentally and physically, and affects your normal routine of life, you need the help of a clinical psychologist.

How to Deal with Border Officers
The last thing a jolly traveler wants is to be refused entry to his destination. There are a variety of reasons why you would be turned away by an immigation officer or border police. Even a simple miscalculated move of tweeting about "destroying America" before arriving in the US could get you into trouble.
However, you are not alone. Even the most experienced tourists feel a bit apprehensive as they approach grumpy immigration officials, some even carry machine guns.
There are ways to make this experience more comfortable. For one, consider this phase of travel as a rite of passage. Here are ways to make your border crossing–whether by land, air, or sea–go smoothly and minimize hassles.
Smile – Do not be intimidated by the grumpy faces of these border officers. Put on a happy face and be courteous when talking to them.
Dress nicer than usual – Travelers, especially backpackers, can be faulted for putting on clothes that would mistake them for hobos. Many immigration officials would ask backpackers proof of an onward ticket or adequate funds, which are very unnecessary. Presenting yourself with a more pleasant appearance could eliminate those extra hurdles.
Prepare everthing you need – Some countries provide visas upon arrival. If these documents require a passport photo of you, have them ready as you line up rather than digging through your bag when asked. Make sure to have the exact amount of cash ready to pay for your visa. Many countries let travelers pay in more than one currency, so choose the currency with the most favorable exchange. Also, present your passport with your visa or latest entry/ exit stamp already displayed to avoid delays.
Follow instructions carefully – Fill out the paperwork as error-free as possible, making sure not to miss anything at the back of the form. Use the correct color of ink and write in all-capital letters.
You do not have to reveal everything – Sometimes, border agents would ask you routine questions about the nature of your visit to their country. If you come for a vacation, simply say so without elaborating too much. Also, never claim to be unemployed, as this would raise a red flag. Remain as innocuous, confident, and low profile as possible. Lastly, do not mention any place that have current political conflicts like Tibet.
Know the rules about what to bring – Each country applies strict laws in what tourists bring. The United States, for instance, prohibits travelers from carrying money over $ 10,000. Meanwhile, bringing an undeclared pack of cigarettes in Singapore could get you heavily fined, even treated as a criminal.
Do not be nervous – There is no reason to be jittery, unless you carry any kind of illegal drugs or a weapon. That could get you in serious trouble. If you carry prescripted medication, make sure to bring the official prescription.
Leave the border as quickly as possible – Scammers, pickpockets, hustlers, and thieves abound many border crossings. They prey on tourists, especially on first-time visitors. Once the officer gives you a go, tuck all your documents and simply walk away as quickly as possible.

The neighbors can set their clocks by Arturo and his wife, Rosa. Every morning at 6:30 a.m. and every evening at 6:30 p.m., they walk out their front door for their 30-minute walk.
"It's kind of a neighborhood joke," Arturo, 58, says. "People literally look at their watch and laugh when we go by."
But the walks themselves are no joke. They've been a part of Arturo's life for 2 years now. And he thinks they may be saving his life.
"I don't think it's too dramatic to say that. My blood pressure is under control now, and that was not the case 2 years ago," he says.
That's when Arturo was diagnosed with high blood pressure. He started taking medicines—and still takes them—but medicines didn't seem to be quite enough.
"I was overweight, and I never exercised," says Arturo. "And my diet was not healthy."
Arturo says he tried to change his diet and his activity level on his own, but he couldn't stay with it. So he asked Rosa for help.
"It was just the support I needed," he says. Rosa told him it was time for both of them to lose weight and get healthier. They joined a weight-loss program together and learned how to create great-tasting, low-fat, low-calorie meals.
"We have been married for 30 years, and she is my best friend," says Arturo. "As soon as I mentioned that I needed help, she got out a pen and some paper and started writing out a walking schedule."
They took 15-minute walks at first. They gradually built up to 30 minutes twice a day, and they're now working toward 45 minutes.
Today, both Arturo and Rosa are at a healthy weight.
"Do I have advice? Yes, I would say that if you are trying to change some of your habits in order to control your blood pressure, you should ask for help from your family. Or maybe from a friend. I cannot tell you how much easier it is to go on my walks every day because of my wife. Even when I'm feeling kind of lazy, I feel like she is counting on me, so I do it for her as well as for me."
And the commitment they have to each other has paid off. "I feel better than I have in years," Arturo says.
At a recent doctor's visit, he got the best news yet: He gets to cut back on his blood pressure medicine because he's doing so well.
This story is based on information gathered from many people facing this health issue.

Annual Marathon Registration
The marathon is a long-distance running event with an official distance of 42.195 kilometres (26 miles and 385 yards), usually run as a road race. The event was instituted in commemoration of the fabled run of the Greek soldier Pheidippides, a messenger from the Battle of Marathon to Athens.
The marathon was one of the original modern Olympic events in 1896, though the distance did not become standardized until 1921. More than 500 marathons are held throughout the world each year, with the vast majority of competitors being recreational athletes as larger marathons can have tens of thousands of participants.

Sumiao Brings Hunanese Cuisine to Kendall Square (Cambridge, Boston, MA)
Boston honestly doesn't have too much regional Chinese cuisine, but this is changing with the arrival of Sumiao in Kendall Square. Sumiao brings Hunanese cuisine, which is hard to find in most places, and combines it with a chich decor and solid cocktails.
The regular menu already has a number of authentic Hunanese dishes, but on weekends they add even more authentic recipes as specials. I got to try the Homemade La Rou with Mushrooms ($28)
La rou is like Hunanese bacon - it is pork belly that's been smoked then hang-dried. This is one of the quintessential Hunanese food. In Hunan, they like to smoke their meats, which is then stir fried with some chili and vegetables (because Hunanese also love their chilies!). They also have la rou with a different preparation on their lunch menu for $13, and I encourage you to try it.
Hunan tofu pot, pork belly, green chili, black bean chili sauce, $18)
As I mentioned, Hunanese love their chilies. Chairman Mao hailed from Hunan and reportedly once said "you can't be a revolutionary if you don't eat chilies!" The Hunan tofu pot was one of the spicier dishes. The spice isn't too bad but it does build up (but if you want more, you can ask for "authentic spicy"). This was one of our favorites that day, with the nicely fried tofu and the flavorful pork belly.

Psalm 51
King James Version
51 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
2 Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
3 For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
4 Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.
5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
6 Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom.
7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.
9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.
13 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.
14 Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
15 O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise.
16 For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering.
17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
18 Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem.
19 Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.

The Bee Removal Minneapolis team has a speciality that we have obtained over many years of doing honey bee removals from homes and businesses. Our purpose is helping you get rid of any kind of unwelcome stingers with your safe bee removals, but at the same time, making sure that those fellows are saved by being relocated somewhere else where they can do their natural work without any kind of human interference. Our main mission is to safely save the bees. Bees are important to our Earth's ecosystem, and doing bee removals allows us to safely bring them to a proper home. While bees are friendly insects, people would prefer to not have them in their homes. That is what the Bee Removal Minneapolis is all about. We specialize in bee removals, wasp removals, and preventative services.
When we talk about the Bee Removal Minneapolis, you must know that there are different kinds of bees, but the most common of them all are honey bees for obvious reasons. So, when a bee removal is the scenario to deal with, you will look for a Honey Bee Removal Minneapolis online for the best beekeeper.

We can help you keep things in balance and do the right thing with our bee removals. First we are going to assess the situation, because performing a Minneapolis live bee removal requires the most precise work to do. After locating where the infestation is, it is necessary to prepare the area with drop cloths to prevent any kind of honey droppings or any droppings at all. Most of our bee removals take time planning and executing, so it is not uncommon for beekeepers to take their time.
After that, we will talk to you about what goes in the bee removal and structure of your property that is compromised, because believe it or not, bees can build their hives in the most ridiculous places, and that includes in between your very own walls. What? That's right. Bee removal is an extensive process which is why we ask so many questions before arriving at the scene. A proper bee removal may be priced high, but that is only because we do much in the process to prepare. Beekeepers with a clear idea of where the hive is and what they may need to take down helps to a better bee removal job. So, always think about contacting us for bee removal services, because we are simply the best there is when the issue is removing honey bees in Minneapolis.
Wasps and bees are two very different creatures, though they pose the same safety risks. The danger is increased because wasps are more aggressive predators than bees. A single wasp is capable of stinging multiple times, whereas a honey bee will typically die after stinging. If you encounter a wasp or a wasp nest, call us so we can provide a fast wasp removal. A wasp removal, or even a bee removal, done by us will ensure you ease of mind.
We provide both bee removal and wasp removal Minneapolis jobs, because we are also experts in wasp removal. Unlike a typical Minneapolis wasp exterminator that will leave the job undone to where wasps will continue to come back, we have extensive experience handling wasps, including paper wasps, yellow jackets and hornets. Our wasp removal Minneapolis jobs are the best in the business as we offer warranties and a preventative service. This expertise enables our wasp removal Minneapolis jobs to be done by professionals quickly as they locate the wasp nest. If you call us, searching for a bee removal near me or wasp removal near me will be simple and fast.
We also offer a preventative service and free estimates. When you call us for wasp removal or bee removal, the problem has already occurred. If you're someone who wants to prevent a wasp nest or a beehive in your property, a preventative service is the best way to do it without having to hire for a bee removal. Our professional beekeepers will come and spray special chemicals around your home. And if you are eager to ask questions for a bee removal or wasp removal, we also offer free estimates for the rescue.
Our knowledgeable professionals specialize in all forms of bee removal and wasp removal. We have more than two decades of experience handling and doing bee removals. No job is too big or too small, and we can typically do a bee removal the very same day.
When you call us for a bee removal, we will ask you questions and hopefully receive a photograph of the beehive or wasp nest from you. We will give you a free estimate of the bee removal. Then, we will talk to one of our beekeepers about doing a bee removal in your area. Afterwards, they will contact you to discuss and provide knowledge of the bee removal and what it will entail. Finally, after pricing is agreed, the beekeeper will come out and perform the bee removal or wasp removal.
We are a multi-state bee removal company. Minneapolis is one of our most dense bee removal service areas in the United States. We serve both residential and business customers throughout Minneapolis and surrounding regions! Call us today to find out more about our local bee removal Minneapolis services to get an appointment.

No matter what we always aim to help you and your bee removal needs!
When searching for "Bee Removal Minneapolis" or how to get rid of bees, look for companies that have extensive experience in all aspects of bee removal. A more experienced professional beekeeper will know how to approach a variety of different situations and will be able to fix the bee removal problem much faster and more safely. We have over 20 years of experience doing bee removals and providing bees safe spaces to grow.
BeekeepersLook for companies who also specialize in beekeeping aside from doing bee removals. This ensures that the company has a deep understanding of bees and how to capture them. A bee removal takes time and every situation is different, so a beekeeper who knows what to do is always the better option. Ask questions, ask for pricing, and learn what the beekeeper will do in the bee removal. Sometimes, a beekeeper can either let you keep some of the honey!
Avoid General ExterminatorsAn inexperienced exterminator, who doesn't know how to deal with bee removals, will make the mistake of trying to kill the bees with dangerous chemicals or other questionable methods. Dangerous methods that kill bees are not only harmful to them but also harmful to you, since it's a real possibility that more bees will come back after a bee removal. It's important that you hire a bee removal company that knows the safety measures in bee removal.
In many bee removal cases, bees don't have to be killed at all to rescue them from the property. In a good bee removal Minneapolis job, the beekeeper will use special tools like a bee vac to collect the bees and transfer them to an apiary or another beekeeper. We do both here as we aim to help local beekeepers with our bee removals!
A good bee removal Minneapolis expert will also remove the hive and offer repairs, too. The remains of a bee hive can be detrimental to a variety of structures and important to a bee rescue. Find out if your local bee removal Minneapolis company will be removing the hive (particularly if it's inside the home) and if they also do repairs as needed.

Removing honeybees from a wall requires carpentry experience. A novice beekeeper can cause more damage than good if they are not experts in carpentry.
An experienced beekeeper will identify the location of the bees with an infrared camera, use a smoker to calm the bees, use a bee vacuum and other professional tools to remove the honeybees safely, extract the hive, clean the affected area, apply pesticide to deter honeybees from returning to the empty hive, fill the open area with insulation and replace the wall with the original material whenever is possible.
Trustworthy honeybee removal companies will have plenty of pictures. Choose a company that has more than just a few examples.
Because there are many species of bees, a beekeeper must have extensive knowledge of the different techniques to remove the bees safely and effectively.
Our company has 20 years in business. As a recommendation, make sure the company you´re hiring does have a valid business license, and have many years of experience in the bee removal field.

Apache HTTP Server Version 2.4
Description: | Manages a cache of authentication credentials to relieve the load on backends |
Status: | Base |
Module Identifier: | authn_socache_module |
Source File: | mod_authn_socache.c |
Compatibility: | Version 2.3 and later |
Maintains a cache of authentication credentials, so that a new backend lookup is not required for every authenticated request.
Some users of more heavyweight authentication such as SQL database
lookups (mod_authn_dbd
) have reported it putting an
unacceptable load on their authentication provider. A typical case
in point is where an HTML page contains hundreds of objects
(images, scripts, stylesheets, media, etc), and a request to the page
generates hundreds of effectively-immediate requests for authenticated
additional contents.
mod_authn_socache provides a solution to this problem by maintaining a cache of authentication credentials.
The authentication cache should be used where authentication
lookups impose a significant load on the server, or a backend or
network. Authentication by file (mod_authn_file
or dbm (mod_authn_dbm
) are unlikely to benefit,
as these are fast and lightweight in their own right (though in some
cases, such as a network-mounted file, cacheing may be worthwhile).
Other providers such as SQL or LDAP based authentication are more
likely to benefit, particularly where there is an observed
performance issue. Amongst the standard modules, mod_authnz_ldap
manages its own cache, so only
will usually benefit from this cache.
The basic rules to cache for a provider are:
or AuthDigestProvider
directive.A simple usage example to accelerate mod_authn_dbd
using dbm as a cache engine:
#AuthnCacheSOCache is optional. If specified, it is server-wide AuthnCacheSOCache dbm <Directory "/usr/www/myhost/private"> AuthType Basic AuthName "Cached Authentication Example" AuthBasicProvider socache dbd AuthDBDUserPWQuery "SELECT password FROM authn WHERE user = %s" AuthnCacheProvideFor dbd Require valid-user #Optional AuthnCacheContext dbd-authn-example </Directory>
Module developers should note that their modules must be enabled for cacheing with mod_authn_socache. A single optional API function ap_authn_cache_store is provided to cache credentials a provider has just looked up or generated. Usage examples are available in r957072, in which three authn providers are enabled for cacheing.
Description: | Specify a context string for use in the cache key |
Syntax: | AuthnCacheContext directory|server|custom-string |
Default: | directory |
Context: | directory |
Status: | Base |
Module: | mod_authn_socache |
This directive specifies a string to be used along with the supplied username (and realm in the case of Digest Authentication) in constructing a cache key. This serves to disambiguate identical usernames serving different authentication areas on the server.
Two special values for this are directory, which uses the directory context of the request as a string, and server which uses the virtual host name.
The default is directory, which is also the most
conservative setting. This is likely to be less than optimal, as it
(for example) causes $app-base, $app-base/images,
$app-base/scripts and $app-base/media each to
have its own separate cache key. A better policy is to name the
for the password
provider: for example a htpasswd file or database table.
Contexts can be shared across different areas of a server, where credentials are shared. However, this has potential to become a vector for cross-site or cross-application security breaches, so this directive is not permitted in .htaccess contexts.
Description: | Enable Authn caching configured anywhere |
Syntax: | AuthnCacheEnable |
Context: | server config |
Status: | Base |
Module: | mod_authn_socache |
This directive is not normally necessary: it is implied if authentication cacheing is enabled anywhere in apache2.conf. However, if it is not enabled anywhere in apache2.conf it will by default not be initialised, and is therefore not available in a .htaccess context. This directive ensures it is initialised so it can be used in .htaccess.
Description: | Specify which authn provider(s) to cache for |
Syntax: | AuthnCacheProvideFor authn-provider [...] |
Default: | None |
Context: | directory, .htaccess |
Override: | AuthConfig |
Status: | Base |
Module: | mod_authn_socache |
This directive specifies an authentication provider or providers to cache for. Credentials found by a provider not listed in an AuthnCacheProvideFor directive will not be cached.
For example, to cache credentials found by mod_authn_dbd
or by a custom provider myprovider, but leave those looked
up by lightweight providers like file or dbm lookup alone:
AuthnCacheProvideFor dbd myprovider
Description: | Select socache backend provider to use |
Syntax: | AuthnCacheSOCache provider-name[:provider-args] |
Context: | server config |
Status: | Base |
Module: | mod_authn_socache |
Compatibility: | Optional provider arguments are available in Apache HTTP Server 2.4.7 and later |
This is a server-wide setting to select a provider for the shared object cache, followed by optional arguments for that provider. Some possible values for provider-name are "dbm", "dc", "memcache", or "shmcb", each subject to the appropriate module being loaded. If not set, your platform's default will be used.
Description: | Set a timeout for cache entries |
Syntax: | AuthnCacheTimeout timeout (seconds) |
Default: | 300 (5 minutes) |
Context: | directory, .htaccess |
Override: | AuthConfig |
Status: | Base |
Module: | mod_authn_socache |
Cacheing authentication data can be a security issue, though short-term cacheing is unlikely to be a problem. Typically a good solution is to cache credentials for as long as it takes to relieve the load on a backend, but no longer, though if changes to your users and passwords are infrequent then a longer timeout may suit you. The default 300 seconds (5 minutes) is both cautious and ample to keep the load on a backend such as dbd (SQL database queries) down.
This should not be confused with session timeout, which is an entirely separate issue. However, you may wish to check your session-management software for whether cached credentials can "accidentally" extend a session, and bear it in mind when setting your timeout.

A note on our diamonds
They are all beautiful. I know that's to be expected, but the level of curation and selection that goes into the diamonds offered here is very special.
First, each is excellent cut, as graded by Gemological Institute of America, which means it has been cut to exacting proportions in order to find the best cross-section of light dispersion, polish, and symmetry.
Second, we have eliminated all diamonds with fluorescence, an attribute that can give even the highest clarity diamonds a hazy appearance.
Finally, every diamond here is the best value for its weight, color and clarity. We have highlighted those that exemplify this with our Jeweler's Choice symbol:
In short each is more then worthy of being in your ring. I can't wait to make yours.
