When a member is unable to use their credits to book in for a class, it is usually down to these 2 reasons:
- The credits have a start date in the future
- The member has purchased restricted credits
1. The credits have a start date in the future
If the member purchased credits with a start date in the future, they will not be able to book in for a class until the selected start date occurs.
In the example below, a service credit pack was purchased for Amy with a start date of 17/10/2017, the credits can only be used to make bookings on this date and after.
2. The member has purchased restricted credits
If the member purchased credits that are restricted to use on a certain class category, then they can only use these credits to book in to classes in this exact category. For example, if the member purchased 10 credits that were restricted to use on Yoga category classes, they can not book into any other category class using these credits.
To enable the member to book in for the class:
- Use Global Search to find the member's name and open their profile
- Once the member's profile is open, select the 'Memberships' tab.
- Edit the member's service credits so that they can book the class in question.
- Option 1: All Classes
- Option 2: One Category- This will match with the category set in the class
- Option 3: Multiple Classes- You can select the exact classes that they can book using the credits

"An Experience of a Lifetime 23/07/2012"
THANK YOU to Rob and his team for such an unbelievable experience. We were so lucky to have fantastic weather (after a particularly gloomy weekend!), amazing shark sightings and such a professional, friendly and fun crew to take us out as well as a very friendly and patient Tamsyn doing desk duty! I still can't believe how beautiful these creatures are – I now have sharks constantly on the mind and ready to do it again at any chance! It is also a great idea to be connected to air so that we didn't have to break our viewing time by surfacing for air all the time. Definitely a highlight of my trip to Cape Town and something I would highly recommend to anyone visiting this part of the world.
See you next time!

Thank you for a great year 2012! I can easily say that this is probably one of the best years I have ever had. Although this sounds very cliche, but i had to admit and say that this year has gone past super fast. A lot of things have happened that I am so thankful of, starting with completing third year of university and getting a wonderful intern place at the Royal Melbourne Hospital. I could not have asked for a better placement and let's hope my last year of uni will also run as smoothly as this year.
On top of that, I'm glad to have been invited to my first blogger event which was hosted by Veet and Nuffnang. It was a great and fun experience to meet some of my favorite bloggers whilst munching the night away. The event was definitely beyond my expectation to meet the people behind the blogs which I read routinely for years now. And I also had my first sponsored post with Sugarlips as well! Can not wait to see what Bread and Butter will bring next year!
Also a big thank you for those who have been there for me throughout the year. Those whom I just met, those whom i just get close to, those who've been there from the very start and to you guys, readers of this blog. Thank you for reading, commenting, following and making my days so colourful. I could not have made it through without you people!
Okay I'll stop being corny and get to the main point...
Au Revoir 2012, Happy New Year 2013!
xoxo, ET

PRODEV is a Haitian-led non-profit, non-political foundation officially recognized by the government of Haiti. PRODEV was established in 1995 by Max Pénette, Daniel Kedar, and Maryse Pénette-Kedar, to empower the youth of Haiti through education.
Founded on the idea that edikayson se sel soliyson, "education is the only solution" in Haiti, PRODEV's work has expanded over time to address the evolving needs of Haiti's children. From 1995-2005, PRODEV granted individual scholarships to Haitian students to complete their education. From 2006-2010, PRODEV operated a primary school and education certificate program within a detention center for minors. In Spring 2010, following the January 2010 earthquake, PRODEV operated 14 elementary schools and eight kindergartens in tent camps around Port-au-Prince, running for six months to two years.
PRODEV opened its first independent permanent schools in October 2010. For the 2012-2013 school year, PRODEV managed three schools and a community center.

I understand you've got some major changes bubbling up soon, and I really, REALLY hope that one of them is to ditch this ridiculous comments on comments system of communication.
Attached are two pictures of my page after responding to ngardner. After submitting my post, it correctly updated the Comments under Sean's post to 2, but did not display my comment. Toggling comments from viewed to hidden and back to viewed did not make my post appear. I had to reload the page to get what you see in image 2, which actually shows what I just entered.
When using chrome and going to topics through email links, as I have mentioned, it gets CONFUSING. Some replies are shown, some are not, some might have comments but you wouldn't know without backing out to the forum and reentering the topic... because the email link brings you to some sort of BS shorthand of the topic that was probably intended to display only the relevant posts, but instead leaves you confused and hitting the refresh button, wondering if you've seen it all.
And another nice change, which I just thought of and wrote while sitting here inserting pictures, would be to have the reply box able to expand beyond the eyewatering, TINY, horizontally locked size that it currently is on my nice widescreen monitor. It feels like I taped a box to the front of my monitor, cut a 4" hole in it, and am sitting 5 feet away peering through this hole trying to discern what is on my screen!
Here's an example of how confusing this posting stuff is. This is a link in a reply notification email I got on a thread. Notice how it displays ONLY Imics response to Ryan, and Ryan's original question. To view the full thread with all replies, I must click on Solid Edge Q&A and then BACK INTO Ryan's thread!
So, what visual cues are there that you're only viewing Imics response, plus the original question? NONE! The Comments tag under Ryan's question is still there, but shows (0), as if there aren't any responses! I don't think there has been a more confusing email link method in the history of web forums. Every forum email link I've ever used has taken me to the FULL THREAD. Some get fancy and auto scroll to the location of the response on the thread page, but none of them chop out all the other responses and give you NO VISUAL INDICATION that this is what they've done!
@Chally72 - I am going to answer your 2nd post on this thread first, asking about this particular Q&A (link you provided). The link intentionally goes to the accepted solution and not the entire thread. I am going to review how notifications are set up to see if there is something I can change in the notifications.
What visual cues are there:
First is the check mark. This indicates the question has been answered and an "accepted solution" has been marked. Second, there is a link to "View the entire topic" where you would be able to see everything including your post. You didn't "comment" rather you "answered" the question. RyanM selected Imics answer as the solution. I do know that we can turn on multiple "accepted solutions". Is that somethign of interest to you?
While these are subtle, to say the least, they exist. Hopefully in the redesign we can make the indicators better. I am working with Lithium on the Comments turned on as a default so you can see them. It might take me some time (and a little education with our employees and users to get used to the system).
Let me know if this answers any of your concerns or if there is something else we can do to help you with using this forum.
These clues are the most obtuse I have ever seen on an online forum. Newcomers to the forum will not understand the tribal knowledge behind a Checkbox at the top of the page, along with TINY grey text "View Entire Topic" link buried next to a bunch of other tiny grey text between posts, indicating that there is more than what they are currently seeing!
More tribal knowledge and more to have to think about just to make sure you have seen it all in a topic- Answers and Replies are totally separate and can be buried in the grey link sea.
This should be a banner spanning the top of the page that says "You Are Only Viewing The Accepted Answer". Seriously, sit someone down that has never seen this forum before and tell them to look at a Question and tally up all of the replies and answers. Then send them through one of these links and ask them to do the same. If their count is not correct, that's a flashing red warning sign that the layout is burying information beyond the reach of the forum users. If they ARE correct,ask them how much effort they had to exert to figure out the forum layout vs just reading the responses! That'll be your other flashing red warning sign!
Here's a closeup again of where that magic link button is that shows you the entire topic...IF there are more responses/answers that are not accepted answers, which it gives no indication of... I'm 24 years old, but I feel like I'm 60 the way I'm squinting to read that thing!
Here you have Dan Staples himself accidentally "Answering" instead of "Replying" to his previous "Answer" comment thread, and the conversation becomes a mess to try and interpret if you are just jumping in.

Documentary Review: Cowspiracy
Hey guys, it is time for our next documentary review!
This documentary really surprised me, it was not about what I thought it was going to be about. I thought this was going to be a sad documentary about how animals are treated. I had even put off doing this one for a few weeks! I am not sure why I thought this maybe it was because the people who recommend that I do this one also recommend a handful of sad documentaries or maybe a part oof subconscious somehow got the notion that it was going to go that way. Either way, the documentary left me in shock with all of the new information I had learned. My hope is that you come into this with an open mind, listen and learn about this perspective.
Has always we are going to start off with the trailer and a quote from the website.
"Cowspiracy: The Sustainability Secret is a groundbreaking feature-length environmental documentary following intrepid filmmaker Kip Andersen as he uncovers the most destructive industry facing the planet today – and investigates why the world's leading environmental organizations are too afraid to talk about it. "
It was extremely hard to fact check this documentary. As it was mentioned several times in the film, this issue is not talked about anywhere. Honestly, before I viewed this film it never crossed my mind that this was an issue. People tend to not pay attention to things unless they see it. The issue of the effects on the environment caused agriculture is not something we see.
The meat and dairy industry produces more greenhouse gasses than all forms of transportation combined. The methane gasses created by the farm animals digestive process is 86 times more destructive than carbon dioxide created by cars. My question here is then why do we hear so much about cars and the hurt they are causing, why are these environmental groups not pushing for people to change to a plant-based diet?
Livestock is also the leading cause of resource depletion and environment degrading destroying the planet. Meat and dairy products are extremely water intensive. Raising the livestock alone in just the United States uses 34 trillion gallons of water per year.
Hydraulic Fracking for Natural gasses uses 100 billion gallons per year.
FACT: 1 quarter pound hamburger requires about 660 gallons of water to produce
Domestic water use is about 5% of the water used in the united states. 55% of the water goes to animal agriculture.
Let's talk for a moment on what this 55% of water goes for. This is not only for the animal itself. This also takes into consideration the water used for the grains the animal needs to eat. The average human eats 4 pounds of food a day (according to the Mayo Clinic). Where the average cow eats 7 pounds per day. Although those numbers way be pretty close how many days does a cow need to eat before it is slaughtered to make food? The answer to that question is 900 days (2.5 years). So, that is a total of 6,300 pounds of food for one slaughtered cow. One cow feeds about 50 people. In order to feed 1 person, the cow ate 126 pounds of food.
Raising animals for food is responsible for:
- 30% of the world's water consumption
- occupies 45% of the Earths land
- 91% of the Brazilian Amazon Rain Forest Destruction
- Leading cause of Ocean Dead Zones
- Leading cause of Habitat destruction
- Leading cause of species extinction.
Dead zones in the ocean are caused by animal waste run off into the ocean. In the United States alone 116,000 lbs of waste is produced from farm animals per second. I don't know about you but I can not imagine what that much waste would look like.
Another factor facing the ocean is overfishing. The ocean a nearly depleted. We are fishing so fast the fish do not have time to procreate. The demand for fish in the United States alone is 90 million tons per year. In order to meet this large quota, fishermen have to use large nets to catch fish. This leaves little to no control of what they catch. For every 1 lb of fish the wanted to catch, they catch 5lbs of fish they did not want to catch. These animals often die in the process. This is called "Bi Kill".

- She made it her life's work to protect the Amazon Rain Forest
- Spoke openly about the destruction of the Rain Forest from cattle ranching
- Was gunned down in 2005 by a hired gunman hired by the cattle industry
FACT: Over 1,100 environmental activist have been killed in the last 20 years in Brazil
Several years ago I had a conversation with a family member who said, that we should continue to eat animals because of these issues. I look at this from a different point of view, farm animals are raised to be eaten. If more people converted to a plant-based lifestyle then there would less of a demand for meat and dairy. Then they would stop breeding the animals they have. All of this will result in fewer farm animals. What are your thoughts on this? Let me know in the comments below!

text: The All India United Democratic Front is widely regarded as the party of the minorities [Biju Boro/Al Jazeera]Guwahati, Assam - India's just concluded national elections saw the rise of a new political family led by an Islamic cleric and businessman, Maulana Badruddin Ajmal, in the northeastern state of Assam. Ajmal, 64, a prominent Islamic cleric who founded the All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF) in 2005, has dismissed suggestions that his party is pro-Muslim and polarising voters on communal lines. The AIUDF has decided to support the government led by Narendra Modi of the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party. Dubbed a "perfume baron" because of the multinational family business that he controls, Ajmal has taken the AIUDF to new heights by winning three seats in the Lok Sabha, the lower house of India's parliament. "In the first elections we contested in 2006, we had put up 73 candidates, 34 of whom were non-Muslims," Ajmal insists to prove his party is secular. "At the Lok Sabha polls this time, we had nominated six non-Muslims out of the 11 seats we fought." I am not a Muslim and I can only say history will give the verdict the Ajmals have always been secular and compassionate towards people of all faith Aditya Langthasha, the party's working president, Islamic studies An unorthodox personality who is both a successful businessman and a Muslim cleric, Ajmal sports a flowing beard and skull cap and can often be seen clad in a white kurta pyjama blessing devotees who see him as a pir - an Islamic religious master. He studied at the famous Darul Uloom Deoband Islamic school in Uttar Pradesh, where he earned the equivalent of a master's degree in Arabic and theology, and now heads a unit in Assam of the Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind - a leading Muslim organisation in India. However, the cleric also heads a diversified conglomerate which has interests in textiles, real estate, leather, healthcare, education and a perfume business headquartered in Dubai. The group's fragrances can be found on sale in luxury outlets across the Middle East and beyond, from Russia to Singapore. His party, the AIUDF, has grown rapidly and tasted political success soon after its formation, with Ajmal and his younger brother Sirajuddin - also a director in the Ajmal Group – among 10 winning candidates in its debut elections to the Assam state assembly in 2006. In 2009, the party contested elections to the Lok Sabha with Ajmal winning the seat of Dhubri, located close to the Bangladesh border, to become a member of parliament. At the Assam assembly polls in 2011, the AIUDF improved its tally to 18, and in the recent Indian national elections it gained three Lok Sabha seats. Ajmal retained his Dhubri seat, his brother Sirajuddin won Barpeta, and party nominee Radheshyam Biswas, a Hindu, emerged victorious in Karimganj. "There has been a 300 percent increase in our strength in parliament," Ajmal said, emphasising his party's rapid success. Our people have elected us to Parliament to raise their interests. We can do so only if we have a good working relation with the ruling party, in this case the Modi Government. We shall give the BJP-led Government issue-based support Sirajuddin Ajmal , MP Dynasty Observers suggest Ajmal is establishing a new political dynasty in the country with three members of the family now lawmakers – and the media speculating whether all of his seven children will enter politics. One son, Maulana Abdul Rehman Ajmal, sits in the Assam assembly in the seat his father vacated after becoming an MP in 2009, and another son, Maulana Abdul Rahim Ajmal, is set to contest the assembly seat in central Assam that his uncle Sirajuddin will vacate. However, Ajmal plays down the family connections. "It is true three members of my family are active in politics, but as a party we have to take into account the winnability factor ... only if our candidates win can we serve the people," he told Al Jazeera. "We don't know what the future holds, but as a father, I cannot force any of my children to join politics. They would choose their own profession." Muslim support The businessman insists the AIUDF is not a pro-Muslim party that is polarising voters and points out that of its 18 current state assembly legislators, two are Hindus. The party's working president, Aditya Langthasha, a physician, added: "I am not a Muslim and I can only say history will give the verdict that the Ajmals have always been secular and compassionate towards people of all faiths." Brothers Badruddin (R) and Sirajudin Ajmal (L) [Biju Boro/Al Jazeera] Nonetheless, it is clear that the AIUDF has managed to win mostly in areas with a sizeable Muslim population: in the parliamentary constituencies of Dhubri and Barpeta, for example, Muslims make up 70 and 60 per cent of voters respectively. By splitting the Muslim vote, the party is thought to have impacted heavily in Assam on the Congress party, which suffered a heavy defeat in the recent elections. A common perception in Assam that the AIUDF's support base, Bengali-speaking Muslims, are all illegal migrants from Bangladesh, a charge that is groundless but made by rivals for political gain, has added to the party's challenges. "This charge or perception is something the AIUDF will perhaps have to live with for some time," said sociologist ANS Ahmed. However, the real key to the AIUDF's success may be the Ajmal family's pragmatic approach to life - something they inherited from Badruddin's father Haji Ajmal Ali, a farmer from the remote village of Hojai who founded the Ajmal Group - and a commitment to serve. "The turning point came around year 2000 when Assam was hit by devastating floods. I toured the affected areas and slept on boats for many nights," Badruddin Ajmal said. "The poverty of our people renewed my resolve to serve them. My party, the AIUDF, is just a medium of this service that I owe my people." That pragmatic approach extends to politics and the Ajmal brothers have decided to support the new central government led by Modi. "Our people have elected us to parliament to raise their interests," Sirajuddin Ajmal told Al Jazeera. "We can do so only if we have a good working relation with the ruling party, in this case the Modi government. We shall give the BJP-led government issue-based support." Political rivals acknowledge that the AIUDF is going to be a long-term player in Assam. "Many wanted to dismiss Ajmal and his party saying they are a one-election wonder," said Kirip Chaliha, a senior Assam Congress leader. "But by the manner in which the party is consolidating itself, I can say it is here to stay." The Ajmals are now thinking big. "Mission 40 is our target for the state elections in 2016 - we want to win 40 of Assam's 126 assembly seats," Badruddin Ajmal said.

In addition to revamping its perennially challenged Miracle Mile campus, LACMA is taking its food program very seriously these days and keeping up with the Joneses of the museum world. Those days of exclusively offering sandwiches chilled on ice and served cafeteria lines are well in the past. Very casual options are still available, but new on the scene is Ray's & Stark Bar, designed by star-chitect and maestro of museum rehabs the world over, Renzo Piano. While the chic room — I could go on and on about the ingenious table design with the integrated cutlery drawers — and Executive Chef Kris Morningstar's seasonal Mediterranean cooking at Ray's is definitely fancy date or girls/boys Night Out material (and highly recommended!), the outdoor lounge area at Stark Bar lounge SEEMS perfect for kids who want to take a load off after cruising through the galleries, or the more restless ones who still need to get their kicks running through the Urban Light maze. And it kind of is. The fact that the previously underused, lifeless courtyard finally feels like an activated space should be applauded.
If you can do so responsibly, try one of mixologist Michel Dozois's first-rate cocktails. I love the Bijou, with gin, yellow chartreuse, sweet vermouth, orange bitters, cherry and lemon peel. But when it comes to practical food options at Stark Bar outdoors, we're talking slim pickings. Fior di latte flatbread ($9-13) seemed like the most basic, safe option, but the chili-infused oil made it prohibitively spicy for the little one (and us big ones, too). My bad; I didn't read the menu carefully enough, and I apologize for all those soiled napkins we used to absorb some of the oil. Broccolini pizza with olives and creamy ricotta over a lovely charred crust was a better and perhaps more nutritious option.
Based on Stark's Bar Bites menu, it appears LACMA and Patina Group wants that to be the designated adults only area of the museum. Unless your kids are stoked with a meal of olives, exotic cheeses, a few flatbreads and bone marrow. But with the welcoming couches and lounge-y feel, not to mention those pricey Jacobsen egg chairs that are OH so fun to spin around in, it's a tease. (Some Knoll and Herman Miller sales reps got lucky with this commission, unless the big haul of mid-century classic pieces were all donated.) Sophisticated and well-behaved kids might appreciate a special lunch seated at one of Ray's outdoor tables. But in terms of this restaurant/bar duo overall, if LACMA wants to set the fancy furniture and cocktails aside for adults, then do so. In the meantime, we'll just trade off watching the kids play in appropriate areas while someone gets to have a cocktail. Or we can wait until Pentimento reopens as whatever it'll be next, stick to the cafeteria, or cross the street and take advantage of the Miracle Mile's food truck row.

JumboMax® Tour Series Grips help Kelly Kraft capture a 2nd Place Finish at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am
16th Feb 2017
(OCALA, FL) - As noted by Golf Channel commentator, Ian Baker Finch, during Saturday's television coverage of the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, more and more Tour Professionals are realizing the benefits of larger diameter grips and making the switch to the new Tour Series grips from JumboMax.
PGA Tour Professional Kelly Kraft is certainly a fan. Kelly recently made the switch to JumboMax, on the advice of fellow PGA Tour Player, Bryson DeChambeau, and has since finished T-21st, T-27th, T-28th and this past weekend finished solo 2nd at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro Am. Kelly Kraft is currently ranked 20th on the FedEx Cup Points List.
"We'd like to congratulate Kelly on his runner-up finish at Pebble Beach," said John Mazzanoble, V.P. of Sales for JumboMax Grips. "He's told me several times how much he loves our new Tour Series grips. I think the results speak for themselves. We can't wait to see what the rest of this season holds for Kelly. He's playing some amazing golf right now, that's for sure, and we're just excited to be a part of it."
About JumboMax Golf Grips
JumboMax Grips garnered the attention of the golf world by offering golfers an alternative to the standard-size or "skinny" grips typically found on clubs. The super-oversized JumboMax Grip, with its patented design and larger diameter, provides a more secure Finger-Palm™ Grip which makes for a tension-free connection to the club. This Finger-Palm Grip Technology promotes relaxed grip pressure, more consistent squaring of the clubface, a more fluid and powerful swing, and the most shock-absorption for continuous comfortable play.

Beetles are insects belonging to the order Coleoptera.
It is estimated that there are 30,000 species of beetles in Australia representing 110 families. many new species and even some new genera are discovered each year.
One reason for the success of beetles is there hard outer covering. All winged insects except flies have two pairs of wings. It flies the front pair has been modified into a specialised flight organ. In beetles the front pair have been modified into hard coverings called �elytra�. This protective armour helps to protect them against predators, but does make it more difficult to fly, as they have to be carried open and raised in front of the true wings. Beetles are therefore generally not strong fliers.
Weevils are beetles too! They belong to the largest animal family known - the Curculionidae, and are generally recognisable by there long �nose� or �snout� called a rostrum, complete with a strange sent of articulated antennae. They also have a very hard and often spiky outer covering. Weevil larvae are different from the young stage of other beetles in having no legs. Over 3,000 Australian weevil species are known, from a world total of over 60,000.
Pea Weevil Bruchus pisorum, (not a true weevil). It only reproduces if eggs are laid on green pods in the field (ie not a pest of stored grain). Adults hibernate in autumn and winter in sheltered spots such as under bark or in cracks in fence posts. They resume their activities when temperatures rise to 18 degrees. Adults feed on pollen for 3 - 10 days before laying eggs and can fly for at least five kilometres to search for pea crops. Single eggs are visible on the exterior of green pods in spring, as the flower starts to wither. They are yellow and cigar-shaped (about 0.6 mm x 1.5 mm). Larvae hatch after about 14 days and bore into the pod, and then into the seed, where they feed for about 40 days. The larvae then chew their way out of the seed to pupate for two weeks.
Sitona weevil Sitona discoideus, a pest of annual medics and lucerne. The adult weevil is dark grey-brown and about 5 mm long, with three white stripes on the thorax. They emerge in mid spring to feed and become inactive in summer, when they shelter in cracks in soil, under bark or under the base leaf of plants. They start to feed again in autumn and mature in April. Egg laying can continue through the winter if food sources are available. The white-cream larvae (about 4 mm long) live just under the soil surface and pupate in the soil.
They adults produce characteristic scalloping marks on the leaf margins on annual medic or lucerne. Larvae will feed on nodules and may reduce nitrogen production.
Vegetable weevil Listrodere obliquus, a pest of cruciferous plants , especially cabbage and turnip; also celery, potatoes, tomatoes, lettuce, silver beet, spinach and winter flowers. Larvae feed on marshmallow and capeweed. Adults are about 9 mm long and greyish-brown. Larvae grow to 12 mm and are creamy in colour, turning green as they mature. They shelter in the ground during the day and emerge to feed at night. Adults are inactive in the soil over summer and lay eggs in late autumn. the larvae feed over winter and pupate in early spring.
Blackheaded Pasture Cockchafer Aphodius tasmaniae, a pest of pastures and lawns. Adult beetles are 8-12 mm in length and dark brown or black. They emerge from the pupae in the ground from January to March, usually at dusk and two or three days after rain. If conditions are favourable (warm and humid) they will swarm and fly off to new areas. If conditions are too cool they will mate immediately and burrow into the soil to lay eggs.
Because they burrow, they tend to avoid both very sandy and heavy clay soils. Adults feed on dung and prefer horse, cattle and sheep manure. If they can find food they will lay several batches of eggs.
The larvae are creamy to yellow with a dark brown head. They are susceptible to drying out and many die in the soil during drought, therefore they have a high egg production, laying 25 - 40 in the first batch and 15 -20 in a second laying, if conditions are favourable.
The young larvae dig vertical tunnels and feed on organic matter for about three weeks before moulting. The second instar will eat organic matter but is also capable of eating pasture top growth. The third instar have blue-grey bodies and a brown or black head. Each instar deepens and widens the tunnels until they are ready to pupate in the spring.
Redheaded Pasture Cockchafer Adorphorus coulone, a pest of subterranean clover and native pasture grasses. Adults are about 12 mm long by 8 mm wide. They fly during the period September - October in south - east Australia. and deposit eggs (one at a time) in the soil. The larvae feed on organic matter until April, May or June, when they become dormant. They resume feeding in the spring, when they are also capable of taking plant roots. In early summer they burrow deeper into the soil and pupate. When the adults emerge, they will lie dormant in the soil until the following spring.
African black beetle or Lawn beetle Heteronychus arator, a pest of lawns, maize, tomato, and other vegetables and grasses.
Shiny black adults are oval in shape and 12 mm long. Grey-white eggs are laid in soft soil in the spring. Larvae are white with a brown head, to 25 mm long and can be seen curled up in soil. Adults emerge from the pupae in mid summer - early autumn, and become dormant as the weather cools.
Elateroidea is a large family containing click beetles and wireworms. They can effect root crops, including onions or a variety of tubers, including flowering ornamentals. The adult click beetle makes a very loud clicking sound when disturbed. It is elongated, usually dark brown of black and flies into the house on summer evenings, or lone click beetle will be found crawling on the floor of around window sills.
Beetle are difficult to destroy because of their hard outer covering. They are often nocturnal and may live for a large part of their life cycle hidden under the soil or under bark. Remember that many beetles are beneficial and may play a useful role in the farm or garden.
Use any knowledge you have of their life cycle or habits in order to control them. For instance lawn beetles live mostly underground. They still require oxygen underground. Changing the setting on the irrigation, so that they are flooded out over night, will force them to the surface in search of air, where they easily fall prey to the early birds. This technique may also work with beetle pests of potatoes or other tubers.
Beetle damage will often be seasonal, and the lawn (or crop) may recover without problems , so the concept of a �damage threshold� should be applied before considering using an insecticide.
Population numbers may also be limited by good rotation practice. Some beetles which damage underground parts can be lured away from crops with a decoy planting of mustard.
If they have to be sprayed, beetles may succumb to pyrethrum or derris

This article, which reported that the Obama administration was poised to declassify the size of the nuclear arsenal for the first time, incorrectly implied that Gen. Colin L. Powell, as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, had released classified information by disclosing "current figures" on the U.S. nuclear stockpile in 1992. In fact, Powell presented notional figures, which did not constitute a release of classified information. The Obama administration's May 3 release of stockpile figures showed that Powell's figures were close to the actual numbers for the years he described.
U.S. is expected to reveal size of nuclear stockpile
Saturday, May 1, 2010
The Obama administration is likely to reveal a closely guarded secret -- the size of the U.S. nuclear stockpile -- during a critical meeting starting Monday at which Washington will try to strengthen the global treaty that curbs the spread of nuclear weapons, several officials said.
Various factions in the administration have debated for months whether to declassify the numbers, and they were left out of President Obama's recent Nuclear Posture Review because of objections from intelligence officials. Now, the administration is seeking a dramatic announcement that will further enhance its nuclear credentials as it tries to shore up the fraying nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
The numbers could be released as soon as Monday, when Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is to address the NPT Review Conference in New York, officials said. She will speak after Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who is likely to repeat his demands for more global controls over the stockpiles of the nuclear nations.
U.S. officials fear he could hijack the conference with such demands, diverting attention from his own nuclear program, which is widely seen as violating the nonproliferation treaty.
Arms-control groups estimate the U.S. arsenal contains 9,000 weapons, with roughly 5,000 of them active and the rest in line for dismantlement.
Arms-control activists and officials in the Energy and State departments have argued that making the numbers public would prove how much progress the U.S. government has made in shrinking its Cold War arsenal.
That's important because, under the NPT, nuclear-weapons countries promise to move toward disarmament, while non-nuclear nations pledge they won't build a bomb. A total of 189 countries are treaty members.
The last NPT Review Conference, in 2005, collapsed in failure, with many countries accusing the Bush administration of shirking its disarmament obligations.
'A major step'
Jeffrey Lewis, director of the Nuclear Strategy and Nonproliferation Initiative at the New America Foundation, said releasing the U.S. numbers would be "a major step forward in transparency."
"The United States has not gotten enough credit for the reductions it has made," he said. "That's even true of the Bush administration. . . . It makes it easier for us to make the case we are in fact reducing the number of nuclear weapons."
The U.S. intelligence community has been concerned that terrorists or states with nuclear ambitions could use the numbers to figure out how much plutonium or uranium is needed to make a bomb. But Lewis and other arms-control advocates say information on that is easy to find.
Several officials said the announcement on the stockpile numbers will be made during the conference. But one senior official cautioned that no final decision had been made. He noted that legally, such information could be declassified only if it were clear it would not lead to further nuclear proliferation. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity.

Cat microchip door flap – keep out of unwanted cats from entering your home
Posted by Tech_Guy in DIY, Gadgets, Great Ideas, Innovation, Inventions, Unique Designs on December 17, 2009
"Are Neighbour's Cats Invading Your Home? Are They Stealing Your Cat's Food? Have You Tried Every Other Cat Flap On The Market? "
If you've got a standard cat door you could be putting your cat and your finances in jeopardy every single day!
Other cat flaps on the market often are not strong enough to keep marauding cats out, you can't programme them to unlock automatically unlock in the morning and lock automatically at night, and they often rely on your cat wearing a collar that he or she keeps losing or it keeps getting broken because it dips into water when your cat is drinking!
Some of you may be SHOCKED to realise that you have been feeding
neighbour's cats day after day. It might be the first time you have considered that while you are out other cats might be getting in.
Naturally you felt that by installing a cat flap would make it easy for your
furry little friends to come and go as they please… and indeed it does!
HOWEVER, when you are sleeping, at work, shopping, busy surfing the
net, or otherwise not in the room… who knows what else is sneaking through your standard cat flap, infra-red cat flap, or magnetic cat flap?

It is essential for your training to choose a good pre-workout supplement. A good one gives you added edge in the gym workout, and a bad one literally can waste your money and time. Pre-workout supplements are made to help you endure a heavy training in the gym by boosting your energy. It removes indolence from your lifestyle and keeps you active and ready for your workout.
- Increase energy and focus.
- Enhance performance.
- Increase strength and endurance.
- Decrease muscle breakdown during training.
- Increase protein synthesis.
- Increase metabolic rate.
After a day at work, going to a gym never looks tempting. The pre-workout supplements help to have a killing workout even after a long tiring day. Therefore selecting a right supplement is most essential part to have a good training. But having so many products out there, people generally don't know what to look for when choosing a good product. Many pre-workout drinks are stuffed full of useless ingredients with fancy labels to make them convincing.
Here are some things that you should always look for while buying a pre-workout supplement.
There is no secret that our body needs nutrients to sustain an intense workout, it is your gas while you train. Without it, you will not go very far. Here something you should look for.
Carbohydrates: Carbohydrates are the quickest and easiest way for your muscles to get energy. When you are in middle of an intense workout, your body requires a great amount of carbohydrates for refueling the muscles.
Proteins: Proteins are important to maximize your workout. It helps to repair any internal or external muscle damage and improves the immune system. A supplement should contain protein according to your weight. Generally, it should be around 25-30 grams.
Energy Resources
Our body and mind should be energized throughout the training. A pre-workout supplement gives you the boost of energy to go to the gym and endure an intense workout in the gym. Some energy sources act upon the central nervous system, and some increase the brain activity. The extra boost of energy helps you train harder and longer. Some of the main energy boosters are.
Caffeine (effective ergogenic acid): Caffeine is a universal performance enhancer. So many people trainers or non-trainers alike even start their days with caffeine. Caffeine in a pre-workout product it is mainly used to boost energy. Caffeine increases the workloads by decreasing the fatigue. Taking caffeine also reduce the pain of lifting weights.
Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs): Primarily BCAAs blend -leucine, isoleucine, and valine are used in boosting constructive metabolism. It is excellent to repair damaged muscle tissues after the workout. Found in food items like eggs and meat. Amino acid also helps to digest food quickly for quick energy and promote growth.
Strength Enhancers
To go through a long and tiring workout requires great strength. Some strength boosters that can help you to endure a heavy and intense workout are.
Creatine Monohydrate: Creatine Monohydrate is best of creatines. Creatine has the ability to maximize strength and take your training to a new level. This ingredient really helps in big lifts and anything that require sizeable power. It also helps saturate your muscles and is used to provide explosive strength.
Our body use ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) as a source of energy in our muscles for lifting heavy weights, but APT only supports for a very short period. Our body, then look for creatine phosphate (CP) for more energy. If you don't have enough creatine stored, then there will be a failure when you are in middle of sets. Taking creatine before workout ensures that your body contains enough creatine storage to go through with intense weight lifting.
Beta-Alanine: Beta-Alanine is an amino acid that helps in increasing muscle endurance. It increases the body's levels of carnosine. Heavy workout causes fatigue by decreasing the PH level of our body. Carnosine acts as a buffer and delays the drop in PH level of the body which results in delaying the fatigue and overall increasing the period of a workout and long workouts overall leads to better training. Beta-Alanine should generally be taken 30 minutes before the workout.
Brain Boosters
For a good training your mind needs to as energized as your body. Whole workout routine demands the full focus of the mind. If your mind is not active, your training will fail, and you can even experience series injuries. There are some of the brain boosters that can help you achieve your full potential in your workouts.
Tyrosine: Tyrosine is an amino acid that reduces stress, uplifts mood and enhances focus. Tyrosine helps in the production of neurotransmitters such as norepinephrine, epinephrine, and dopamine. It also controls the hormones and even increases the sex drive. It can increase the concentration during the training period. As it helps in so many levels, it is an important part of any pre-workout supplement. Tyrosine should be taken 500 to 1000 milligrams 30 minutes before training.
Choline: Choline is a neurotransmitter which helps for signaling muscle contractions and other brain activity. Choline is a precursor to acetylcholine that helps in improving memory.
What should you avoid in pre-workout supplements?
- If it contains the propriety blend, then don't buy it.
- If it is not made of scientifically validated ingredients.
- If the supplement does no contains clinically effective dosages.
- If it contains a lot of artificial ingredients.
Before buying a product, you should first consult with your gym trainer or mentor, so that they can suggest you a product that is most suitable for you. Also, avoid a pre-workout supplement with a large number of ingredients as it indicates that there are small and ineffective dosages of each.

He said: "What we've seen here today is that the people of Amber Valley have chosen to continue with a strong Conservative Government to take the country in the right direction.
"I am very honoured and very privileged to be elected for a second term to represent the people of Amber Valley."
Mr Mills received a total of 20,160 votes, compared to Mr Gillott's 15,901.

Weird art-valuation justifications of the day, Sarah Thornton edition
Sarah Thornton has an interesting theory on why art prices keep on spiraling upwards:
Art market datapoints of the day
Many thanks to Zac Bissonnette for fisking the latest Bloomberg gushery on art funds for me, so I don't have to. This fund isn't going to produce disappointing returns: it's probably not even going to get off the ground to begin with. Does Bloomberg's Scott Reyburn have a clue what "unconfirmed commitments" are? I suspect they're the fund-world equivalent of vaporware.
The hot-young-artists league table
Many thanks to Amy King at Artnet, who put this league table together for me, showing the artists who have grossed the most money at auction before their 30th birthday. (Technically, it's total auction revenue up to and including the full year in which they turn 30.)
Art market datapoints of the day, China edition
I suspect we're still only in its early days, but there's no doubt that we're in a massive Chinese-art bubble right now. And for proof, all you need to do is look at the league table of the highest-grossing artists of 2011.

Yes, the Damien Hirst Complete Spot Challenge is a thing:
Visit all eleven Gagosian Gallery locations during the exhibition The Complete Spot Paintings 1986–2011 and receive a signed spot print by Damien Hirst, dedicated personally to you.
How Alice Walton has improved America
Jeffrey Goldberg is on something of an anti-Walmart campaign — and there's nothing particularly wrong with that. There's a lot of things to dislike about Walmart, including the fact, as Goldberg notes in his latest Bloomberg View column, that its stores don't have windows. But having decided that he doesn't like Walmart, Goldberg is attacking the company and its founding family on grounds which don't stand up to scrutiny.
When art galleries ratify forgeries
Patricia Cohen has uncovered the art-world scandal of the year: it seems as though Knoedler, the 164-year-old Upper East Side institution, closed abruptly on Wednesday in large part to protect itself against a $17 million lawsuit from Pierre Lagrange. Lagrange spent that sum on a Pollock which he then discovered contained two paints which had not been manufactured until after Pollock died. And now it seems that Knoedler regularly sold AbEx paintings procured by Glafira Rosales with the vaguest of provenance:

February is upon us. Hopefully mother nature will bless us with milder days and warmer temps. Only another month before spring arrives – but who are we trying to kid here? Wisconsin spring lasts a day or two here and there, then back to winter, back to spring, rinse and repeat! I'll grasp at any light at the end of the tunnel.
We have a few more shows before our annual vacation in March. Tickets are bought, the house is reserved, our house sitter for Ms. Kitty Kat Diva is all arranged. Now all we have to do is wait! But before then, you can find us at the following shows:
TOMORROW – Saturday, February 17th – Appleton Winter Farmers Market. 9am to 12:30pm, inside at City Center, 100 N. Appleton Street. Winter veggies (radishes, carrots, potatoes, cabbage, etc.) fresh eggs, mushrooms, cheese curds, sauces and jams, dip mixes, etc. And there are these two young men with THE most AMAZING sweet empanadas on the planet! No joke! And of course, some artisans, like us!
February 24 & 25th – Madison Handweavers show at Olbrich Botanical Gardens, 3300 Atwood Avenue, Madison. Show hours are 10am to 4pm both days. Our booth is moved a bit this year; we'll be in the center area, opposite the information desk instead of the large Commons room. Great artists here and a wide variety – wood, fiber arts (purses, scarves, clothing, etc.), painting, photography, jewelry, pottery, etc.
March 3rd & 4th – We're back at Arti Gras at Shopko Hall, 1901 S. Oneida street, in Green Bay! View and purchase the works of 100 artisans from throughout the Midwest.

Have a great weekend everyone! And remember, you can't oil your wooden cutting boards, utensils or knife handles too often.
We just complete our first cribbage board of this type. We can do just about any logo or carving in the center. Give us a shout out if you'd like us to design a custom board for you!

Regent's Park Open Air Theatre – 2018 season announced
31 March, 2018
Regent's Park Open Air Theatre have announced details of their 2018 season, which includes Peter Pan, As You Like It, Dinosaur World Live,
Little Shop of Horrors, and The Turn of the Screw, a co-production with English National Opera.
Timothy Sheader and Liam Steel's Olivier Award-nominated production of PETER PAN by J. M. Barrie returns in the final year of First World War .
Centenary Commemorations Max Webster directs Shakespeare's AS YOU LIKE IT, with original music by Charlie Fink
Maria Aberg directs the mean green monster musical, LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS, book and lyrics by Howard Ashman, music by Alan Menken, based on the film by Roger Corman, screenplay by Charles Griffith
DINOSAUR WORLD LIVE plays daytime performances for ages 3+
Full creative team confirmed for THE TURN OF THE SCREW including conductor Toby Purser and designer Soutra Gilmour
Directed by Timothy Sheader and Liam Steel, the season opens on 17 May 2018 with Peter Pan by J. M. Barrie (17 May – 15 June), a revival of their 2015 Olivier Award-nominated production, in the final year of the First World War Centenary Commemorations.
For the wounded soldiers of WW1, imagination is their only escape. Yet as they're transported to the fantastical lagoons and pirate ships of Never Land, allegories of the war they've left behind are ever present.
George Llewelyn Davies, later killed in action in 1915, was one of the children who inspired J. M. Barrie to create the iconic character of Peter Pan.
Remembering him, and a generation of Lost Boys, the production enchanted young and old alike during its original, critically acclaimed run.
Kids go half price at most performances.
The second production of the season is a co-production with the English National Opera of Benjamin Britten's The Turn of the Screw (22 June – 30 June).
The story of unearthly encounters at a remote country house, and of a young governess desperate to protect her children, finds chilling new levels of suspense in this unique outdoor production at Regent's Park Open Air Theatre.
Director Timothy Sheader and members of the ENO orchestra, conducted by ENO Mackerras Fellow Toby Purser, bring their award-winning skills to Britten's masterly reworking of Henry James' classic novella.
Max Webster then directs William Shakespeare's As You Like It (06 July – 28 July).
In the mythical forest of Arden, a world of transformation where anything is possible and anything permissible, two young people discover what it really means to be in love.
With beautiful new music by Charlie Fink (former frontman of Noah and the Whale), this warm, open-hearted production promises adventure, sibling rivalry, mistaken identity and romance – Shakespeare comedy as you like it.
Playing daytime performances Dinosaur World Live (14 August – 09 September), is a new interactive 50-minute show for all the family (ages 3+). Grab your compass and join our intrepid explorer across unchartered territories to discover a pre-historic world of astonishing (and remarkably life-like) dinosaurs – including every child's favourite flesh-eating giant, the Tyrannosaurus rex.
The 2018 season concludes with the mean green monster musical Little Shop of Horrors (03 August – 15 September).
Book and lyrics are by Howard Ashman, music by Alan Menken, based on the film by Roger Corman with screenplay by Charles Griffith.
For the misfits of Skid Row, life is full of broken dreams and dead ends. But there's hope on the horizon for flower shop assistant, Seymour, when he discovers a mysterious new plant with killer potential.
Will his newfound fame and fortune win the attention of kind, sweet, delicate Audrey? Can he finally break free and be happy…whatever the consequences?
Directed by Maria Aberg, IT'S ALIVE at Regent's Park Open Air Theatre…somewhere that's green!
Regent's Park Open Air Theatre's award-winning production of Jesus Christ Superstar opens at the Lyric Opera of Chicago, USA on 27 April 2018. Timothy Sheader directs with design by Tom Scutt, choreography by Drew McOnie and lighting design by Lee Curran.

Jekyll Markdown syntax highlighting
Jekyll uses Markdown or HTML files to statically render complex websites from simple text files. While Jekyll syntax highlighting is possible, more often we might use more generic Markdown commands.
Enable syntax highlighting
Before every code block, simply include the language name, for example

```fortran {% endraw %}
this even works for
The color code syntax highlighting on your webpage looks quite striking, and the number of languages covered is very extensive. Despite the different syntax highlighter modules used by different Jekyll web hosting services, I find that every language I use just works with the method above.
- Github uses Linguist syntax highlighting for its own service (Issues, README.md, etc.)
- Github/Gitlab Pages can use Rouge syntax highlighting. That is, via Jekyll

Quick Summary of Account Doubling App
Rating: 0.1 out of 5. Yet another binary options scam.
The Good: The videos are all on YouTube, allowing you to view them quickly.
The Bad: Fake reviewers, testimonials, and even a fake James Alexander confirm that this app is just one big scam.
The Bottom Line: Don't bother trying to double your account with this obvious scam. Stick with one of our recommended ways to build an income online instead.
Click here to become my next success story.
Account Doubling App Review
"Are you interested in getting paid $10,000 cash just for watching this video- like, starting right after this very short video clip?"
"And pocketing the money within 7 days?"
"I'm going to personally pay you $10,000 cash if you fail to double your bankroll in 7 days using my doubler app."
This is the introduction you hear to Account Doubling App, as relayed by James Alexander. Here's a screen shot showing you this system.
Apparently, James has an app that will work in your online binary options trading account to double your initial investment.If this app doesn't double your investment, James will personally pay you $10K for your trouble.
Exactly how that payment will occur isn't discussed.
How does Account Doubling App work?
The doubling power of this app is based on some kind of loophole, which the brokers are currently unaware of- but won't be for long.
"The bad news: I don't know how long it's going to last before the greedy brokers shut us down," says James.
Why would brokers be looking to shut down this system?
Apparently, because it has to do with "the delay of quotes from market to brokers," according to James. "Broker interfaces lag behind the actual data, and we found a way to get an earlier read of the market data than their interfaces."
"That's why it's of extreme importance that you let the system choose the broker for you," explains James.
James then shows you his own account and how the Doubling App is making him money on auto-pilot. In fact, the system is so good that, on occasion, James has to add a non-winning trade just so he doesn't arouse the suspicion of the brokers.
Community members send James questions about the app, including questions about how much time it takes to use the app, whether it can be used on a Mac, etc. Naturally, all these questions are answered with ease by James.
When you enter your email and click on the "Start the Doubler Challenge" button, you go to the members area. Here, James shows several positive video testimonials from the following users:
James also tells you that you should sign up for an account via one of his recommended brokers. This is because James has personally screened several brokers and knows which ones will allow you to withdraw your funds without any trouble.
When you input your name, email and phone number, you are directed to the recommended broker, which in this case is Glenridge Capital.
Based on just these facts alone, I can state that this get-rich-quick system is a total scam and is designed to rip you off. Here are the reasons why:
1. The video testimonials are fake.
The happy app users featured in the above screen shots are mostly Fiverr actors who sell video testimonials for $5/each.
Here are some examples of these satisfied "customers:"
2. James Alexander is a stock image.
Who is the man behind the Account Doubling App? Apparently, he is nothing more than a Shutterstock image.
3. Glenridge Capital is your recommended broker.
I've discussed the Glenridge Capital brokerage in past binary options reviews. Suffice it to say, this brokerage is very high risk because it is not regulated by a CySEC or SEC. As a result, you'll have a hard time getting any kind of legal backing should you run into issues with your deposit or withdrawal of monies. Also, the brokerage requires a $500 initial deposit, not the $250 that James provides as an example.
4. The positive reviews are posted by affiliates.
There are many positive online reviews of the Account Doubling App, at first glance anyway. Taking a closer look at these reviews, however, you notice one common denominator: they all contain affiliate links to the app. The links appear in this format:
How objective can such reviews be when they all stand to profit from readers who then sign up to the system?
5. Fake Facebook and Twitter accounts.
Account Doubling App features these rosters of Facebook and Twitter users, making it appear that the app has amassed a significant number of fans on social media.
However, you can't link back to these "followers" even though it appears that the comments were posted just minutes ago. In short, the fans are nothing but a screen shot of Facebook and Twitter feeds- complete with yet more stock images such as this one:
6. The site's terms and conditions speak for themselves.
The Account Doubling App Terms and Conditions area has some rather interesting disclaimers. Here are just some of the issues that the site is not responsible for:
When a business states that it does not warrant that the function or content of its product is error-free, or even that defects will be corrected, how much can you really trust the product? Also, when a business openly states that its content isn't necessarily accurate or reliable, do you really want to invest your money with it?
Account Doubling App does not appear to be a reliable method for doubling your money, and it more than likely will result in you losing your invested money.

The Christy Banquet Center/St. Louis South City
St. Louis, MO
The Christy Banquet Center/St. Louis South City
5out of 5.0
Ron and the Christy were fantastic to work with from the beginning. We met with several different reception vendors and many were very pushy and it didn't feel like we were anything more than income to them. Ron and The Christy were completely different. When we met with Ron the first time he was very friendly, open, provided a lot of tips and feedback, and he set us at ease. At the time we were living in South Dakota and he said he would be more than willingly to work with us to help accommodate our needs. He responded to emails in a reasonable amount of time, usually same day. My parents live out of town and he was flexible with me every time I asked if I could stop by to show people the place. Since we lived in SD we were looking for a place that required very little decoration and very little work on our end, and The Christy was just that. They already had centerpieces, table cloths, napkins, option of chair covers, chandeliers, and lights behind the head table. They also do their own catering and had their own bartenders, so that was one less thing we needed to worry about. We did decide to use a few of our own decorations and Ron and his team were more than willing to help us out with getting them set up. He offered to put the decorations out for us so that it was one less thing we needed to worry about. When we arrived for our wedding reception, Ron was wonderful. He came out to greet us and to talk to us about how the night would start off as far as meals, clearing the buffet, etc. It was such a relief to get to the reception and know that he had everything under control and that we didn't need to worry about a thing. The night was so stress-free for us. The food was delicious! Everyone complimented it that night and weeks after our wedding as well. Ron made sure to check in with us a couple of times throughout the night to make sure we didn't need anything. At the end of the night, we never felt rushed or like we were being kicked out. The Christy boxed up all the buffet food that wasn't eaten and the cake for us so that we could take it home. I highly recommend The Christy in O'Fallon to everyone. They were such a great, kind, and sincere staff to work with. They made it so we were able to enjoy our reception without any worries.
