A. M. STURGES, Shenstone, Hartford, CHESHIRE. ti-s ^ > O RATIONAL BEE-KEEPING. Prior to the epidemic of Acarine Disease in 1906, the most popular strain of bee in this Country was the British Black or so-called Native bee. Owing to the low disease resistancy of this strain, and to the fact that apiaries of these bees act as centres from which the disease radiates, it is rapidly being replaced by the more vigorous and prolific Italian strains. After many years of experiment, with various races from different parts of the globe, the Italian strains have been selected as shewing the greatest resistance to the disease, and though not truly immune, are not liable to serious infection when managed under Rational conditions. In the cases where bees of these strains become infected, the cause of the infection is generally traceable to the use of irrational methods of bee-keeping. With these strains it is usually possible to eradicate disease when this is detected in the earlier stages, this being an advantage over the Native strains, which are not amenable to treatment, even in the initial stages of the complaint. As honey getters the Italian strains are superior to all others, and have been selected for this characteristic by the American Bee-keepers—the largest honey producers in the world. Queens of these strains are very large, golden in color, and exceptionally prolific, building up stocks from nuclei in a very short time. The strains selected work well in sections, capping these white, and owing to their extremely gentle character, it is possible to handle strong stocks of these bees under all conditions of weather, and therefore to adopt manipula- tive measures which ensure absolute freedom from swarming. During 1021 several stocks which were suppHed on four frames in May buih up to 20 frames and yielded 180 lbs. per stock by mid July. Other stocks, wintered on six or seven frames, built up so rapidly that nuclei were taken from them and each stock (spring count) yielded 200 lbs. of honey by July 9_th, and gave three nuclei which were on 10 frames and working in the supers at this date. A large number of Queens have been imported from the United States, and these have been carefully tested for some years. The strains selected are of remarkably gentle dis- position and no stock is allowed in the breeding apiary unless it can be manipulated without the aid of smoker or veil during the working season. As the whole of the surrounding district has been re-queened with the selected strain, purity of mating can be guaranteed for 1922, and any queen producing vicious bees, or showing incorrect mating will be replaced. For 1922 the selected drone parents are queens of the Ben Davis American five-banded golden strain. This strain is exceptionally beautiful, and very active in forag- ing : the queens are exceptionally large and very prolific, breeding earlier and later in the season than those of most of the strains examined. This is a very important factor to be considered in the building up of a strain resistant to Acarine disease. Four Queen parents have been selected for 1922 and queens can be supplied from any of these, if orders are placed in advance. These breeding queens have been selected for temper, prolificacy, working qualities and size, and are probably the finest, in these respects, it is possible to find in Europe. Breeding Queen No. i, selected for the carrying on of the strain, was raised in 1921 from a John M. Davis American three-banded golden queen imported from the U. S. A., and crossed with a drone of Pure Penna strain imported from Italy. The young queens of this cross of two unrelated strains of pure Italians are of a bright golden color, extremely large, very vigorous and prolific, and very much superior in all respects to queens of either parent strain. Breeding Queen No. 2, is an imported queen from Italy selected by Signor Penna as a breeding queen. This is oije of the finest pure Italians obtainable and produces very large and prolific queens of a dark brownish golden color. Breeding Queen No. j. This is an American three- banded golden queen imported from Jay Smith, of Vincennes, Indiana, one of the greatest queen breeders in the United States. Bees of this strain are exceptionally good honey producers, working well in sections and capping these even and white. The queens are large, very prolific, and of a bright golden color. Breeding Queen No. 4. A Ben Davis American five-banded golden queen imported from U. S. A. This queen is not the parent of the queens to be used for drone production in 1922: direct inbreeding will therefore not be practised. Queens raised from No. i Breeder will be available at all times from May 15th to September and will be sent unless definite orders to the contrary are received. In order to ensure prompt delivery of queens of the other strains orders must be placed well in advance. All queens are raised under the most ideal conditions, during the honey flow, in the strongest possible 20 to 30 frame stocks under the supersedure impulse, the number of queen cells in each stock being strictly limited, m order to produce the finest queens it is possible to obtam. A far larger number could be produced if this method were not adopted, but this would be at the expense of quality. For full details of methods employed see Bee World, 1921. As the greatest care is tajken during the whole development from the egg until the queen is mated, and as all queens not up to the high standard required are destroyed, these queens can be absolutely relied on and will be replaced in the unlikely event of being unsatisfactory in any respect. Four classes of Queen are offered : — I. Virgin Queens produced under the best possible conditions emerging from cells placed in cages a few hours before. It is well known that queens which emerge from caged cells are not of so high quality as those emerging in nuclei. Virgin queens can therefore be supplied from nuclei at a slight extra charge. II. Untested mated Queens, produced in very strong stocks and allowed to emerge in the mating nuclei. These are of very high quality. III. Select Untested Queens : selected from the above for color, size, and laying capacity in the small mating nuclei. These queens are very much superior to those usually obtained in this country or from abroad. IV. Select Tested Queens suitable for use as Breeders. These are carefully selected throughout the whole development from the grafted queen cups and only excep- tionally fine queen cells are set aside for these queens. The cells are placed in strong nuclei on standard frames a few hours before the queens emerge. The young queens are carefully examined for size and color as soon as they emerge, and are allowed to remain in the nuclei, after mating, until the color of their progeny indicates purity of mating. This necessitates the keeping of these choice queens in the mating nuclei for a period of 21 to 30 days, and during this time the evenness of egg laying and pro- lificacy of the queens are carefully tested. After this careful selection the queens shipped as Breeders can be relied on as the best it is possible to obtain from any source, and they are now generally recognised as such. Before shipment of these queens, the nuclei containing them are gradually reduced in size, so as to slowly lessen the egg laying of the queens and ensure safety in travelling. Travelling Cages, &c. The travelling cages used for shipment of the Untested and Select Untested Queens are of the American long distance type, being very much larger than the cage ordinarily employed in this country. Breeding queens are sent out in specially made export cages imported from the U. S. A. The candy used in all cages does not contain honey as an ingredient : danger from foul brood, nosema apis, &c., is thus avoided. As this candy is unobtainable in this country, it is imported from the A. i Root Co., of Medina, Ohio. Special labels have been designed to render the packages plainly distinguishable in the post in order to avoid rough handling in transit. Safe delivery is therefore guaranteed of all queens sent by post, and in case of damage in any way replacement will be made on return of the cage unopened. All queens are given a consecutive registered number and full details kept of their work before shipment. It is therefore possible to supply unrelated queens at any time afterwards when required. Nuclei. Nuclei can be supplied on three or four frames from June 7th. These nuclei must not be confused with the nuclei usually sent out, as they are in reality strong stocks condensed to small bulk for shipment... These nuclei — ^known as honey production stocks- consist of three or four frames of brood in an advanced stage of development, well covered by young bees. The young bees emerging from the brood within 12/14 days, will form a very strong stock which will build up with extreme rapidity owing to the very high percentage of young bees present in the colony. It is usually possible to super these stocks, supplied on four frames, withm 14 to 21 days of delivery, and to obtain: a fair surplus the same year if delivery is made in June. Before shipment of nuclei a sample of the bees is examined under the microscope in order to ensure freedom from Acarine disease. The stocks can therefore be relied on as free from disease when delivered, and when rationally- managed will remain free from infection. In the rare cases where infection is found in these strains it usually exists in the initial stages and can be eliminated by intensive brood production. In the case of Native bees this is generally impossible. Where required, all nuclei are guaranteed to remain free from Acarine disease within six months of delivery,. provided the advised conditions of management are carried out. In the event of infection appearing in these cases, the nucleus will be replaced free of charge by another nucleus of the same grade and size as originally purchased. Acarine Disease. Prior to the important discovery of Tarsonemus woodi by Dr. Rennie in 1920, the whole subject of Isle of Wight disease was involved in mystery : owing to lack of knowledge as to the cause of the complaint treatment was practically hopeless, and in the light of recent knowledge the methods formerly recommended for the alleviation of the complaint are shewn to be worthless. The disease is caused by the parasite breeding in and living at the expense of the tissues of the Respiratory system of the bee, and the cause is confined entirely to this portion of the bee's anatomy. Medicinal treatment is therefore of no avail unless the drug can be introduced into these organs. Though attempts have been made to dis- cover a suitable fumigant, the results reported up to the present time are not promising, though it is probable that successful medicinal treatment will follow this course. Attempts to find immune varieties of bee have not been successful and there is no possibility of success in this direction. Experiments conducted in 1921 have shewn that all the well-known strains can be infected with the disease, and that where conditions are favorable for the increase of the parasite within the colony, the disease will reach the same degree of severity with all strains. While some strains — owing to their general charac- teristics, and not owing to greater resistance of individual bees to the parasite — are found to be fairly immune to attack when managed in a rational manner, it must be recognised that no strain is truly immune, and that com- parative immunity is almost entirely a matter of manage- ment. Where the older methods of bee-keeping obtain disease must be expected, but with Rational management the modern strains of American Italian bees can be kept free from the complaint. During the course of the investigation referred to — the results of which are published in Bee World, December, ig2i — it was observed : — (i.) That British blacks, or Natives, and dark hybrid bees are generally foujtid to be infected with the disease, and the infection to be in a well advanced stage in the majority of cases. That when these strains become infected treatment is usually found ineffective owing to the low prolificacy of these queens compared with those of high grade Italian strains. Cii.) That while stocks of Italian strains of bee headed by high grade and prolific queens are usually found to be free from infection, some cases of infection are found usually in the initial stages. In these cases the cause is generally to be found on examination of the previous history of the colony. (iii.) That the degree of infection found is dependent on the age of the adult bees of the colony. (iv.) That measures which increase the age of the bees of a colony, such as the removal of brood, the use of non-prolific queens, prolonged queen- lessness, &c., render the colony open to attack by the disease, and when infection has occurred render the rapid spread of infection certain. (v.) That vice versa, measures which decrease the average age of the bees of a colony, such as the addition of brood, stimulation for brood 8 production, and the use of high grade prolific queens render the colony practically immune to attack, or if carried out when infection is observed in its initial stages eliminate the disease. Prevention of the Disease. The method of prevention of attack by the disease, and of elimination of the complaint, is pointed out by these experiments, and the problem now resolves itself into the adoption of Rational methods of bee-keeping. By the avoidance of the inbred and degenerate British Blacks and strains containing a considerable pro- portion of this blood, by the use of exceptionally prolific queens of vigorous American — Italian strains and by stimulation for brood production before and after the resting season of the year, the chance of infection is re- duced to a minimum. As the robbing of stocks infected by the parasite is the chief immediate cause of infection, this should be prevented at all costs, by isolation of the diseased colonies, and by reducing the entrances as much as possible in spring and autumn. As the parasite can only exist in the trachea of the living bee, and dies within a very short time of the death of the host, no danger need be feared from Acarine disease when old combs from stocks which have died from the complaint are utilised — -provided the combs are allowed to remain out of contact with bees for a fortnight. There is also no danger of infection as the result of robbery of hives which have perished from the disease some time previously. Elimination of the Complaint. By the use of a microscope it is a comparatively simple matter to detect the disease in the initial stages of infection, some weeks before the usual symptoms of Acarine disease are visible, and when discovered at this stage it is usually possible tO' eliminate the complaint during the working season. To make plain the rationale of the process it is necessary to explain the course of the disease within the trachea of an infected bee. Experiments carried out during the investigation referred to previously have shewn, that young bees emerging from brood in an infected stock, in the final stages of the disease, may become infected by the female parasite at the age of six days, and that the second generation appears twelve to fourteen days later. As migration of the parasites does not occur to any serious extent until the trachea becomes congested, and as this will not occur within 14 days of the hatching of the second generation of parasites, the danger of serious migration will not arise until say 35 days have elapsed since the original infection. That is to say that in the case of a stock of which only a low percentage of its members are infected the spread of the disease within the stock will not become serious until the bees originally infected have reached the age of 5 weeks. If these infected bees, are removed from the sphere of action before they attain this age, the disease will not increase within the colony, but will gradually diminish and finally disappear. ■ The main object of the method of treatment is therefore the elimination of the older members of the in- fected colony : this can be carried out in two ways : — (i). By wholesale isolation of these bees by artificial swarming and collection of the adult bees on the old stand. (2). By so greatly increasing the work of these adults as to appreciably shorten their lives. This is best effected by intensive brood production stimulated by feeding, and by the addition of "hatching" brood from other colonies, thus increasing the nurse bees of the treated colony out of all proportion, and consequent stimulation of the queen. A combination of both methods is frequently advis- able in cases where the infection has advanced beyond the initial stages, and has so far developed that the second generation of parasites are found in the trachea. It is extremely difficult to diagnose the complaint from symptoms, especially during the earlier stages of the disease, but any gradual change in the character or manner •of the colony should be viewed with suspicion. Spring 10 dwindling, slowness in building up, and change in temper are frequently indicative of disease, but cannot be relied on as diagnostic symptoms. The only reliable and accurate diagnosis possible is the examination of a number of the foraging bees under the microscope, and this should be carried out by all modern apiarists from time to time. Preparations for Winter. As the critical period of the year as regards Acarine disease is during the winter months, when owing to lack of foraging, and the practical absence of brood production, the average age of the bees composing the colonies, becomes high, and infection, where present, spreads with extreme rapidity, it is necessary to prepare for this period some months in advance, and to ensure the absence of infection within the colony before the advent of winter. In order to carry out this programme efficiently, the treatment should commence immediately after the termina- tion of the honey flow of the district. Where increase is desired the stocks should be divided by artificial swarming, and collection of the adult bees with the old queen on the original stand. This colony is stimulated for brood production and when established is re-queened by a young and vigorous mated queen of the selected strain. The young bees on the new stand should be re- queened as soon as possible, by the introduction of a similar queen, and stimulated for brood production as before. Stimulation for the production of brood should continue in all cases until the first or second week in September, when rapid feeding should commence, in order to provide the stores necessary for the winter months. Where increase is not desired, the original stock should be re-queened if free from disease, but where infec- tion is found an artificial swarm should be made, and the adult bees collected on the old position utilised for the production of brood to be given to the main colony, which has been moved to the new position. In this case the old queen should be allowed to remain with the adult bees. 11 Annual re-queening is an absolute essential, as it is extremely difficult to stimulate an old queen of the previous year, to the extent required. Spring Treatment. Where the winter has been niild — as experienced during recent years — it is advisable to place a cake of candy on the top of the frames in February, as this is a great stimulant at this period, and generally results in the very early production of brood. As soon as pollen is carried into the hive in quantity, the quilts may be i-aised on a warm day, and some of the outer combs of food uncapped without causing undue disturbance of the bees. If short of food, this may be given as candy, or as syrup by means of a brood nest feeder. The uncapping of the food combs should be gradually extended, from time to time, until all combs containing food have been treated in this way, with the exception of those containing brood. The object of this treatment is the utilisation of the stores of the colony before the spring feeding commences, so as to prevent the filling of the combs with food, and the consequent limitation of the brood space. When all food combs have been treated as advised the spring feeding should commence and the stock will rapidly build up, new frames being given as required until the stock covers 20 brood frames by the first or second week in May. When this stage is reached the Demaree method of swarm control should be practised, the queen being con- fined to the lower brood chamber, by means of a wire queen excluder, and kept supplied with egg laying space, by interchange of combs from above with those down below. As swarming can be entirely prevented by this method, the yields of honey are very much larger than generally obtained, as the stocks can be worked of very much greater strength. 12 General. The syrup used for winter feeding is of the strength usually recommended for this purpose in the text books, but the addition of one of the advertised antiseptics — preferably Yadil — is advisable as a preventive of foul brood, nosema apis and mildew. In spring feeding the use of antiseptics is not recom- mended, owing to the danger of this being transferred to the honey comb. It will be noted that the use of candy is advised during the spring, but except in cases of extreme urgency, should not be given as winter stores. Candy is not a suitable winter food for bees, as it is apt to become moist during the cold season of the year and to ferment and cause dysentery. Guarantee against Acarine Disease. Before shipment, all nuclei are microscopically examined for the parasites causing Acarine disease and can be relied on as absolutely free from infection. In the unlikely event of infection occurring within 6 months of delivery, the nucleus will be replaced free of charge by a nucleus of similar size to the one originally supplied, pro- vided the following conditions have been observed : — (i). Nuclei must be stimulated for brood production until well established on 9 or 10 frames. (2). Swarming must be prevented by the adoption of the Demaree system, or other similar methods. Where swarming occurs, resulting in the isola- tion of the adult bees of the colony, the guarantee does not apply to the swarm, but is transferred to the original stock on the old stand, provided this is given a young laying queen of the same strain within 14 days. (3). Immediately after the honey flow the original stock must be re-queened, and must not remain without a laying queen for a period exceeding 10 days, and the stock must be stimulated for brood production at this time. Where increase is desired the guarantee does not apply to the 13 colony containing the adult bees of the original colony, but as, in the case of swarms, to the original colony consisting of young bees on the new stand. (4). Samples of the adult foraging bees must be sent for examination when required, and in case of suspected disease a sample must be sent to an independent microscopist whose decision shall be taken as final. (S). This guarantee applies to Acarine disease only — formerly known as I. O. W. disease — and the presence of Tarsonemus woodi in the trachea of the suspected bees shall be taken as proof of infection. Price List of Queens and Nuclei. SEASON 1922. Queens.

These are all interesting, but most are just missing or broken security controls. Just because you can't scan for a vulnerability doesn't mean it's a "business logic" flaw. They're still just issues with input validation, access control, authentication, error handling, etc... If you can name the security control that would solve the problem, it's not a business logic problem. We should reserve this term for business process problems codified in software.

Funny you should say that because I was asked to join a troupe that's starting up and they are looking for a name. Burlesque mayhem would be a good name for a troupe too!
I spent a good deal of time with Mono this weekend. We do well together when we have long periods of time together. Its something we have very rarely had, but we become, well, very mono with each other. This past weekend was no different. We went to a four day music festival and saw a ton of bands we like in concert. A rare treat.
Apart from the wonderful time together we had there was a night of fighting. He told me his female friend had a new friend she was going to movies with and spending time with. I asked him how he felt about it and he shrugged it off. I could see there was more going on than a shrug off so I asked if he was sad, regretful that he hadn't worked with me about spending time with her, disappointed, angry. He said something along the lines of it not being worth the effort it would take to process and that it required too much work and he doesn't like work. Everything with me is work. I took this personally that I had made it that way and that if I had only been able to shut up and suck it up, he would be able to spend time with her.
The conversation hurt and he and I ended up not talking to each other for the last half of the band we were watching. Later, I remembered our discussion about my not seeing everything as his not loving me and that he isn't going to leave and I told him I decided to drop the whole thing. I wasn't going to let his words make me feel hurt. I realized he was doing his sabotage routine where-by he creates moments to make me doubt he cares and so I feel like dumping him and leaving. I told him I wouldn't do that and that I wasn't going to put up with that and wouldn't let him make me feel that way with his words. He agreed, he was doing the sabotage thing again and once we established that, we both were on the same page again. After that we were okay again.
Its fear that creates this behaviour for him. Right now there is a lot of fear for him. Fear of what will happen next in his life. The closer he gets to retiring from the navy, the more fear.
Last week I had my first sex date night with Brad. We had played a bit and had been doing some stuff, but not to the extent of having some time and a bedroom! We had his boy for the night and after he was in bed we went to the spare bedroom at his house. It was lovely and long over due, ...but the condom came off. We immediately stopped and accessed (again, as we keep up to date often) where we were at with tests and where our fluid bonded partners were at with test. All good... There are no outstanding concerns. It wasn't a matter of pregnancy either.
My biggest concern, and the one that completely wrecked the mood, was how my other partners would react. Last time that happened (four years ago) they freaked out as I didn't say anything until later and there was much more risk. I told them all right away and to my relief they were all thankful I had spoken up, and weren't too concerned once I explained the circumstance. Derby asked me how I was doing with it and I was grateful she asked. It was touching that she empathized with how I would feel.
Big Libra time coming up for me. Three Libra loves in one month of birthdays. I'm hosting a birthday party for libra's and taking Brad and Derby out to events. Mono got his present early, in the form of a belt he really wanted fixed. I will do something special for him with our family though too.
The world opens up... when you do.

Thanks for the responses. NYC- I haven't been accustom to men who don't enjoy processing. Its a learning curve for me for sure. a big one.
I was concerned because the wife he is fluid bonded with has a permiscuous boyfriend. She hadn't been tested since entering his life and I didn't know where he was at with that either. Turns out that Brad had been tested (I knew he had been) after the last time the wife had sex with the bf... About 6 weeks a month ago. He was fine. No concerns.
I wasn't too concerned except for the reaction I got last time from my other loves. Remember way back when I was just seeing Mono and him and PN had a really hard time with a condom breaking during sex with a bf that I didn't know anything about sexually? Anyway, I thought their reaction would be similar. It wasn't. Thankfully... Largely because I crossed my "T's" and dotted my "I's" this time as best as I could. Stopping right away helped with that security also.
We were just getting over my telling him the story and beginning to cuddle up again when his boy woke up and I had to go home... So no, no more lovin'

A reminder to myself about who I think I am;
Sometimes I catch myself standing in the middle of my life rooted in the realization that I have taken on more than most. Most days I live one moment at a time and don't allow myself to think of anything but balancing time, energy, giving of love to others, actively listening to others and remaining in a position of trusting the lack of control I have.
I give everything to my partners and son and have a titch left for work, family and the very few friends I have. Mostly I just exist outside of my chosen family. I'm present but refuse responsibility for any relationship beyond what is in front of me. At least I try to be like that, but often think of others and give of myself regardless.
I have firm boundaries and a strong sense of who I am, what I can manage and what I value. I'm open to change and growth I think although it sometimes takes a brick up side my head about something to get me to notice that maybe I should look at myself. For this reason I prefer radically honest yet kind people who show me they love me by telling me the truth in as kind and compassionate a way possible. I don't have time to waste on wondering if I can trust someone and wondering what they are trying to say by trying to read between the lines. I prefer to get to the bottom of issues before the misconception and assumptions set in. After that, I find that nothing gets solved completely.
I tend to think that people want and strive to make positive and loving change, growth and energy in the world and I often realize I am extremely naïve about this. It isn't true, yet I hold on to it as my largest faith in humans.
The combination in a person of wanting to make positive and loving change, growth and energy in the world and being radically honest in the truth they speak yet remaining kind and compassionate is often irresistible to me. It has to be genuine though. Flakes are easy for me to spot and if there isn't an edge that makes them human then I just don't but it. Someone that is too "soft" makes me think that they are hiding hidden anger issues.

Wow, this last post really resonated with me. Especially paragraph three and four.... feel very similarly in my own life. Love your posts.
The weekend was a wash of burlesque and my brother being in town mostly. That and a wonderful date to a local park for a hike and then dinner...
I came out to my brother about the burlesque. Well, his partner anyway and then him. She wanted to know if they could crash at our place while they were in town and I had to tell her that I had a show the night of her wanting to stay over. No biggy, they came to the show! It was a strange sight to look out over the crowd and see my baby brother though. Not overly comfortable, but I just ignored it and carried on. He saw a number that was more funny than sexy. Thank goodness.
Brad came to see my show for the first time too. He sat behind my brother, his partner and Mono. I'm not sure why he sat alone. It seemed odd to me but after the show we met up with Derby and a large group of friends including Brad's wife, and the man I have been chatting with often that Leo's wife used to date and he seemed to socialize well with everyone there.
Leo's wifes ex and I have become friends and it was great that he and his wife came over along with the others. He and I have an on going casual friendship that is just pleasant and relaxed. No drama and no expectations.
Derby had her last bout of the season on Saturday and I directed everyone to see her that night. There is always burlesque. There isn't always derby. Now the season is done I will invite people to see the next big show I'm in for Halloween. I have a show in between, but that is the biggy.
So everyone came over to Mono's house and we partied until 2. It was the second night in a row for Mono and I and we were in the groove. The night before had been a party for our monogamous friends and the night had been just that... monogamous (whatever that means... after years of poly I can actually sense a difference).
The party was a poly pile up. Complete with newbies and many metamours and loves. Just the way I like it. Mono commented after that he had enjoyed himself and thought that our new group of friends suited him and us more than the poly friends of the past. It does seem to be the beginning of a new era of poly friends. One that is well needed. There are some straggling old poly friends, but I feel as if there is a fresh start somehow.
My brother and PN came down to meet everyone and socialized for a while, but went up to bed after an hour. It was great to fall into bed after a large martini; dirty and wet and a large take out poutine (French Canadian dish made of french fries, gravy and cheese curds . Fucking awesome!). I was content. Satisfied.
Sunday I went for a hike with Brad after picking all the rest of the apples off our tree. It was the fourth tree of fruit to pick this summer and I was glad to finally give it a rest and give all the fruit away. The garden wasn't that great this year. The flowers were, but the veg sucked. It just wasn't warm and sunny enough at the right time. Damned island weather.
Brad and I hadn't seen each other in a couple of weeks and it was great to catch up and get all our stories out. We lay in a large grassy field for a time and sat by the ocean. It was a moment I won't easily forget. It was the moment where I realized that there is really no going back and that I am not scared any more. I have full trust of the situation and my lack of control in it. It was a good feeling to just be myself and be content that the others were as satisfied as I could possibly help make them.
Four partners is really too many. It really is. I don't suggest it. I don't know how I am managing and I don't think I give any relationship all I could if there were less, but I carry on and give as much as I can. Sometimes I want to hide and pretend its just me to think about. Maybe I will take a break sometimes and do just that, but when I feel I have caught up with one I remind myself of the perceived neglect of another. I flit from one relationship to another all the while never feeling as if I have caught up or been able to give as much as I would of liked to of.
Brad and I talked at dinner about how one knows that a person is partner-worthy. I decided that if I could imagine going on an vacation with someone where we would spend a lot of down time together, just sitting and staring quietly in the comfort of the others presence, then they are worth looking at for a partner. Small talk and having the need to entertain someone, to me, indicates friendship.
Silence and solitude with very little going on is a huge leap for me from daily life. I don't adjust easily and I need to feel safe to go through that with someone. It would make me so vulnerable and so much a part of myself that isn't visible to many that I would have to trust deeply. Turning extroversion into introversion is a vulnerable thing. I don't do that with anyone except those I love and trust the most.... ahhhh, a vacation like that with any of my loves fills my heart with glee. I really do think that I couldn't do without any of the four.
Mono's friend is off again and won't be seeing her until December. Maybe not again for longer than that. He admitted last week that things have changed between them and that he hasn't given her the friendship he promised. He felt that he had backed away and that he had not lived up to the agreement he made to not do that. She, in turn, has backed away also. although I still see a heck of a lot of posting back and forth on fb and notice occasionally when she writes him on fb. What "backing away" means I don't really understand. Changed feelings I think.
I was surprised he told me all the info he did actually. I don't hear about her often and I think I might of even asked to get that much out of him. He likes to be private, but is beginning to tell me when people flirt with him and what happens when they do. He has a large number of followers and he loves to be admired. He's a charming man and very funny. I know that he gets lots of attention that I don't know about and I feel far more comfortable knowing about it. I ask questions so as to understand better though and he thinks that I am feeling threatened. Really I am just curious and trying to sort out how I feel about certain people propositioning my man. Ha! I'm just not used to it. Even if its likely been going on for some time without my knowing.
We have been fighting more often lately on stupid little things that run away with us. I worry about it a bit due to his opening up emotionally a bit more about the woman etc. and the awkwardness of this new feeling of knowing more personal stuff about him, but I blow it off and make jokes about it. I don't think I will feel comfortable until after he finishes work for good and is settled into his new routine. All of us are waiting for that. The whole house at this point.

How to recover the missing Notes if the Notes app crashes?
"I am a freelance writer who writes a lot about travels, and I write quite frequently during my own travels on my iPhone 5s with the Notes app. But last night on my flight, the Notes app kept crashing me several times while I was trying to add some pictures to it. After landing on the ground, I was surprised that all my Notes were gone. I didn't know what caused the crash, was it due to the flight mode? God knows, but those Notes are very important to me, and I am now feeling quite desperate. Is there a way to recover my missing Notes because it did not give me a chance to make a backup?"

Muse/ic – "Part IX: Chapter III – 'God Moving Over The Face of the Waters' by Moby"
Excerpt from Chapter III: I recognized that we had come to the moment they had discussed in our hotel room. Hamid reached the guard, who was not only trying to make sense of our pile of tickets but had to simultaneously keep control of anyone that might sneak past him.
Seconds, disguised as forever, clicked by as our fates were to be determined by the man, who wore a sweater with a badge and matching beret. What I wouldn't give for Getafix's magic potion, I thought. We wouldn't even need to take a train. I'd carry everyone and run to Lahore.
The hurried piano notes, interwoven with the drawn out synthesized melodies perfectly capture the anxieties that were brewing over our sudden change of plans, our walk to the train station, and my longing to be in the same world as Asterix & Obelix..
Thank you Moby.

HUGE Savings & Deals on
Steam Rooms
In Tanyfron Today!
Once thought of as belonging only in spas or gyms, steam rooms Tanyfron are becoming increasingly popular in private homes. This is because they are more affordable than ever and people are better aware of the health benefits they have to offer. If you enjoy basking in a steam room but don't want to travel to another location in order to enjoy one, having one in your own home could be a good idea.
Many people think of saunas and steam rooms as being the same thing. Although they are quite similar, they do differ slightly in that saunas provide dry heat, while steam rooms provide moist heat. The heat from a sauna may come from a wood stove or hot rocks, and the temperature inside a sauna is typically between 160 and 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Water is heated to elevate the temperature in a steam room, which normally reaches about 110 degrees Fahrenheit inside.
Steam rooms differ in a lot of ways, and one of the biggest is size. Some steam rooms are actually not much bigger than a stand-up shower stall, while others could be much larger. They could have glass fronts or solid ones that make it impossible to see inside them. The interior normally consists of ceramic tile, but could also be fibreglass. Steam rooms normally have benches in them for seating, and some could even have elaborate temperature control systems, lighting and even music.
Steam rooms are renowned for their health benefits, a few of which include:
While steam rooms can be beneficial to many people, others are advised against using them at all. Pregnant women may not use steam rooms. This is because the sudden rise in body temperature can be harmful to the baby. Patients with diabetes or a circulatory disorder should discuss using steam rooms with their physician beforehand. People who are prone to heat injuries should use caution when entering a steam room, since the heat inside can result in injury if they are not properly hydrated.
Steam rooms need to be cleaned on a regular basis in order to prevent mould and mildew from growing inside them. The walls of a steam room need to be wiped down at least once a week with an antibacterial cleaner. Floors should also be mopped with a solution of bleach or all-purpose cleaner and water. The corners of a steam room may need to be scrubbed with a stiff brush from time to time in order to loosen any residue. Water nozzles should be taken apart and soaked in white vinegar at least monthly.
The biggest factor in determining Tanyfron steam room costs is its size. When installing a steam room, the location and condition of existing plumbing and electrical wiring can also increase or decrease the final estimate. If the steam room has deluxe features such as music or lighting, this could raise the construction price, since more attention to detail would need to be taken during installation.
This will vary due to personal preference, though it is often ill-advised to maintain a steam room that is significantly warmer than average body temperature, which is 37 degrees.
Steam rooms are designed to ease muscle tension, reduce stress, increase metabolism, and improve skin complexion. They are ideal for relaxation purposes, as well as for health benefits.
High limit switches that prevent people from turning up the heat too high, along with alarms that will alert users whenever steam temperature is too hot should be installed in your steam room.
Steam rooms can be any size, but the average one is around 3.5 metres long and 2 metres deep. This size of room can seat between four and six people comfortably.
A steam room should ideally be kept at around 40 degrees Celsius. A room that temperature will be warm and relaxing, yet not be so hot that spending time in it is unbearable.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for No Limits for Deaf Children, Culver City, CA, USA
NoLimits is an inspiration to the many students at UCLA and to me to help children with profound or complete hearing loss. Kids who are helped by NoLimits have an excellent chance at accomplishing their goals despite their challenging circumstances. Speech and language delay is the major problem facing youth in America today, and NoLimits serves those who are among the most susceptible to those communicative learning problems.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
seeing the major improvements in children's learning of speech in a short period of time, on a level once thought impossible by physicians and language experts!
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
Provide them a greater space, larger staff and easier accessibility for the children and families it helps.

CSIRO and a consortium of Australian Opal miners (Opal Producers Australia Limited) have unveiled the world's first automated device to grade opals using image analysis, at the 2009 National Council of Jewellery Valuers forum in Sydney.
CSIRO Mathematical and Information Sciences image analyst Leanne Bischof helped develop the Gemmological Digital Analyser (GDA).
Ms Bischof said that opals have a unique range of colour characteristics that makes them by far the most difficult gemstone to appraise.
"Qualities such as 'flash', the way an opal reflects light and colour as it is rotated, can vary with human eyesight and lighting conditions," Ms Bischof said.
"A person's judgment of an opal's colours, the brightness of those colours and the area each of them covers is a really difficult task, even for a skilled opal assessor. You really need objective image analysis and automation to assist with that."
Incorporating the expert knowledge of over 60 opal industry professionals, CSIRO designed a GDA prototype with Australian company Applied Robotics.
CSIRO then developed the complex mathematical algorithms to drive the image analysis system behind the GDA.
A small camera inside the GDA takes 871 images of the stone as it rotates on a stage which moves 360 degrees horizontally and tilts 90 degrees vertically.
High powered computers linked to the GDA analyse the images and quantify the opal's gemmological characteristics, providing a classification grade based on colour, clarity, carat, cut and character and a summary graph showing proportions of the opal's colours.
A database of information on the GDA graded opals will allow participating jewellers and industry organisations to accurately assign a dollar value to a particular grade of stone depending on the daily market price.
Director of Opal Producers Australia Limited and Lightning Ridge Opal miner Peter Sutton said the value of the Australian opal industry is estimated to be worth around $50 million a year, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics.
"We suspect this figure is grossly underestimated because valuations for a single stone can sometimes vary by thousands of dollars," Mr Sutton said.
The demand and trade for other Australian commodities like wheat, coal and gold have benefited from the introduction of an independent grading system, ensuring fair prices for producers and the supply of a consistent quality product to customers.
"We wanted to create an objective grading system that would improve the demand for and value of the Australian Opal industry, giving miners a fair price and consumer's confidence to trade with grade quality assurance," Mr Sutton said.
"This will be an independently-graded Australian opal product, which we will brand as Opallia."

The frame counter reset on my Leica MP recently broke, so I took it to Samy's Camera, the store I bought it from. I was afraid they'd tell me I had to send it back to Leica for repair (the last time I dealt with Leica it took them six months to repair a damaged lens), but fortunately they told me it could be repaired in the store. To my surprise, it took only four days for them to finish the work!

The new version boasts over 200 new features, including the addition of the successful facial recognition and geotagging features, Faces and Places, that were introduced with iPhoto '09. Version 3 also adds edge-detecting adjustment brushes for non-destructive localized editing and touch-ups. Along with numerous UI and performance improvements, Aperture 3 adds full 64-bit support on supported systems running Snow Leopard.
Aperture has always had a focus on the workflow of professional photographers, but Apple also markets it for amateurs that want to move beyond the simplicity of iPhoto. Aperture 3 takes that even further, seemingly melding more power and advanced management with the features and ease of use of iPhoto.
[Ars Technica]
I'd been interested in Aperture since version two as a replacement for iView MediaPro, which was bought out and abandoned by Microsoft years ago. However, earlier versions of Aperture couldn't handle the very large files produced by scanning 4×5 film (a slide produces a file around 1.25 GB) and would crash if you tried to add one. That problem has been fixed in version three–probably due to a combination of 64-bit support in Snow Leopard, and the fact that my Photoshop system has 24 GB of RAM.

Rock Photography Is Fading Fast. What has happened to great rock concert photography? Is it part of a bygone era, or has the music industry forgone photographers due to control issues? A mix of both, says Mark Paytress in Creative Review's article "Three Songs and Yer Out! The Dying Art of Gig Photography" (reprinted from a recent issue of M magazine). The "three songs" refers to an industry-wide guideline that photographers are allowed access to the artists only for the first three songs of a performance. The practice started as a courtesy to performers to keep distracting flash bulbs to a minimum. But then it worked its way around the scene and became the rule at most venues. Artists and their management blame the venues for enforcing the rule, while the venues insist they're just doing what they're told by the management. [Utne Reader]
This article doesn't tell the whole story. Those restrictions certainly exist, but you only encounter them once an artist has become successful enough to have "people" and play at venues with "security." If you stick to smaller venues such as (in Los Angeles) the Hotel Café, Molly Malone's, and the Troubadour, you can still shoot through the entire show. Using a flash is discouraged or even banned at some of these smaller venues, but then flashes going off in small venues are really annoying to everyone, and tend to produce bad pictures besides.
This doesn't help people who want to make a living as concert photographers, because there's no money in shooting the acts who play at these smaller venues. However, anyone doing it as a hobby will have plenty of opportunities, and all of those big successful artists who can't be photographed start out playing at small venues. (Well, except for the totally manufactured idol singer types, but the only reason to photograph them is for money.)

About the research
Internal curing is a relatively new technique being used to promote hydration of portland cement concretes. The fundamental concept is to provide reservoirs of water within the matrix such that the water does not increase the initial water/cementitious materials ratio to the mixture, but is available to help continue hydration once the system starts to dry out. The reservoirs used in the US are typically in the form of lightweight fine aggregate (LWFA) that is saturated prior to batching.
Considerable work has been conducted both in the laboratory and in the field to confirm that this approach is fundamentally sound and yet practical for construction purposes. A number of bridge decks have been successfully constructed around the US, including one in Iowa in 2013.
It is reported that inclusion of about 20% to 30% LWFA will not only improve strength development and potential durability, but, more importantly, will significantly reduce shrinking, thus reducing cracking risk. The aim of this work was to investigate the feasibility of such an approach in a bridge deck.

By Airman Nicolas Z. Erwin, 28th Bomb Wing Public Affairs
/ Published November 07, 2017
A new contractor team stands together in the 34th Bomb Squadron at Ellsworth Air Force Base, S.D., Oct. 20, 2017. The 34th and 37th Bomb Squadron were recently given eight contractors to help alleviate the workload on their personnel. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman Nicolas Z. Erwin)
Putting bombs on target entails more than flying 950 miles per hour and dropping munitions. It requires planning, training and the resolve to accomplish the mission.
These additional responsibilities sometimes take aircrew out of the cockpit and away from the mission, which is to provide combat air power, anytime anywhere.
To help alleviate the workload of aircrew, the 34th and 37th Bomb Squadrons hired eight contractors who began working at Ellsworth Air Force Base, South Dakota, Oct. 16, 2017, performing scheduling, training, and standardization and evaluation.
The Secretary of the Air Force and Chief of Staff of the Air Force wrote that their branch needs to focus on the primary mission to fly, fight and win in air, space and cyber space, and additional duties are competing with that mission.
The new personnel have allowed for Airmen to remain focused on their squadron's mission.
"I should end up consuming 80 to 90 percent of the work in this office," said Jeff Reid, a standardization and evaluation specialist, and one of the new contractors, assigned to the 34th BS.
Each flight has a specific function: standardization and evaluations maintain a record of aircrew flight qualifications, the scheduling flight focuses on spacing out the flights required by each member on the aircraft and the training flight reviews and assigns different training necessary for aircrew to keep their qualifications.
Lt. Col. Timothy Griffith, a 28th Operations Group deputy commander, explained that these duties are usually distributed between pilots and weapon system officers in their respective squadrons.
"In order for [the aircrew] to restore mission readiness, we have to focus all our energy on that, not additional duties," Griffith said. "Air Force Global Strike Command has given us this contract for squadron operational support. [The contractors] are only for the bomb squadrons where they assist with tasks that our aircrews are assigned."
Hiring contractors also alleviates the break in continuity within the squadrons. Aircrew can get picked for a deployment, temporary duty or training — leaving work and long-term projects still needing to be done.
"There is always work to be done," Reid explained. "I think the continuity is going to be great for both of these squadrons because [the contractors] are here all the time."

Electric Stoves have come on leaps and bounds, becoming more and more realistic, with pioneers such as Dimplex with their Optiflame and Opti-myst ranges they have truly lifted the bar for the competition. The beauty of having an electric stove is that you can still have that lovely glowing flame effect even when the heating function is not needed, as it can function independently. Read More

Children are a source of abundant inspiration for parents and caretakers all over the world, and that's just how the story of Kidsme begins.
Our founder and his wife were overjoyed when their son, Edwin, was born. They committed to being active, engaged parents, and strongly believed in giving him as healthy a start to life as possible. As parents, they wanted especially to build positive mealtime experiences, where they could enjoy nutritious and delicious food with their son. However, as Edwin's father was helping his son make the important transition from liquid to solid food, he experienced some early frustrations. So, utilizing his background as an inventor with more than 25 years of experience in the baby product industry, Edwin's father found a solution and developed the prototype that would later become Kidsme's first generation Food Feeder.
Kidsme is excited to share the joys of a simple solution that was inspired by our founder's own son. The Kidsme Food Feeder allows your child to safely and easily self-feed and discover new foods. It's an opportunity for you and your little one to enjoy happy and hassle-free mealtimes together, and also allows for building healthy eating habits at an early age.
At Kidsme, we are continuing to let children inspire us as we strive to bring you innovative, high-quality products that will help turn everyday moments into special and memorable experiences.

Anbang Insurance Group has purchased at least 16 high-end hotels in the United States since 2014.
President Obama stopped staying at the New York Waldorf Astoria after Anbang bought it.
Anbang abandoned its effort to buy a hotel near a major US naval base reportedly after concerns raised by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States.
Reporters have identified links between Anbang's leadership and the Chinese government.
Business travels should ask: Are your cyber security measures better than Pres. Obama's?
Is your data secure at an Anbang hotel?

Mrs. Johnson decided to have her portrait painted by a famous artist.
She told the artist, "Paint me with diamond earrings, a diamond necklace, emerald bracelets and a ruby pendant."
"But you are not wearing any of those nice things."
"I know," said Mrs. Johnson. "My health is not good and my husband is having an affair with his secretary. When I die I want that bitch to go absolutely nuts looking for the jewelry."

Searching For The Perfect Kugel Recipe
I have a confession to make. I'm not Jewish. But I do love Jewish foods like bagels, cream cheese and matzo ball soup. I'd never attempt to make bagels at home, since we have some of the best one's in the world right here in Chicago. Same goes for corned beef sandwiches and brisket. But I've yet to find the perfect kugel recipe. So this weekend I decided to give it a try with the help of my kids.
Although we have a number of wonderful Kugel recipes at Recipe4Living, I went with one that was recommended to me by my former co-worker, Maxine. Mom's Rich and Delicious Noodle Kugel is admittedly not a "heart healthy" dish as it's full of cheese, eggs and butter; but I decided to make it anyway. At the very least I knew my boys would eat it as noodles and cheese are still their favorite foods.
One of the first things I found out was that all of the ingredients need to be at room temperature; especially the cheese. So although I had originally intended to make it for dessert Saturday night, I realized it would take at least 4 hours for the ingredients to come up to temperature. Plan "B" was to eat it cold for breakfast the next morning.
Once I had all my ingredients assembled, it was time to grease the pan and add everything together. Whisking the eggs together was easy, but because my cream cheese was still a little cold in the middle, I was forced to cut it with a knife and squeeze it between my fingers to get it to blend well with the rest of the cheeses. Fortunately, my noodles were still piping hot so that helped meld the cheese together.
Since I don't like almonds, I topped it with brown sugar and butter. Then it was into the oven at 350 for 1 1/2 hours where it became bubbly and golden brown. Since it was already 1am and I had a time-change to contend with, I left it on the counter to cool and headed off to bed.
The next morning my Kugel was not only cool, but firm to the touch and an extremely delicious breakfast. My family loved it so much that they want me to make another one as soon as possible. This time I'm planning to put the ingredients out first thing in the morning and eat it warm for dessert. Check out more of our delicious Kugel recipes below.

I'd like to thank my 12 year old son, Jon for patiently standing on a chair and taking pictures while I made this recipe. Of course, he got the first taste and pronouced it DELICIOUS!

Teri's Concessions at the Sacramento State Fair
Every year at the California State Fair in Sacramento, Teri's Food Concessions sets up for six weeks to feed thousands of people from July 12th - 28th. Her grilling dive has the best food at the state fair, that is fresh and homemade. She is one of the few who takes the time to deliver a great meal, even at someplace like a fair. My favorites are the BBQ pork sandwich and the Big Rib which debut last summer. She has been around since the 70's when her dad built this huge stand with his bare hands. She still gets old time customers from when her dad owned the place who compliment them on the food, and they've been going to TFC for 20 years, every summer. This is a unique dive because it is the fair, but Teri's Food Concessions has delicious food. The line always crashes into the other food concession's lines. The staff is friendly and dedicated to their jobs. Teri has a passion for food that can be seen in the quality of her BBQ. I always go back.

Learn to wield the awesome text editing power of Vim in this hands on workshop. We'll drill through a series of exercises that are designed to teach the best practices for working with Vim's core functionality. You'll learn to slice and dice text at the speed of thought.
There are more ways of killing a cat than choking it with cream – Charles Kingsley
In Vim, we can duplicate a line from normal mode, insert mode, or with an Ex command. But which is best? In this masterclass, we'll work through a series of exercises, finding at least two solutions to every problem. In response to the question "which is best?" we'll see that the answer is always: "it depends".
Vim is optimized for repetition. We'll study a few examples of how to use the dot command to repeat the last change. Then we'll develop a strategy for composing repeatable changes, and meet the optimal Dot Formula: a two step solution with a thousand uses. We'll also study best practices for creating robust macros, and learn how to execute them either in series or in parallel.
To level the playing field, we'll be using bare Vim (not vi – we're not savages). You'll be asked to leave your .vimrc at the door.
