Exhibit A – MoonRootSpirit' Slack Community Policy
The Slack Community is your space to connect, create, share, grow and inspire. It is up to us to keep this a safe, accepting, and encouraging space for everyone. We are all here to build our brands, grow our businesses, and positively impact the world. Please read and agree to the guidelines below.
If we view that you are in violation of any of these rules this is grounds for immediate and permanent removal from this group.
1. No selling. We all get it. We all have businesses that we think are AWESOME! Do not actively promote, sell, spam, mass mail or solicit business within this group. Feel free to take conversations offline to have that business magic happen.
2. Be kind. The haters can be out in the world, but there is no room for them here. It is our job collectively to make everyone feel welcome, encouraged and supported.
3. Don't trash talk. Though we can not control what you say outside of this group, we highly encourage you not to trash talk anyone inside or outside of this group. We are all doing the best we can at any given moment. {Plus karma is real and this negative juju will come back to you.}
4. Give. Give. Give. Somedays it can feel like all we are doing is giving, but you can truly never give enough. With that said, do not give away the services that you sell just because you feel obligated.
5. This is not charity. We are all business owners here and we understand that we all sell items. Respect others' professions, expertise, and knowledge. Your question or need posed in this group may be too much for a quick response or it may be inappropriate for the group as a whole. Respect a fellow member who is offering you support if they ask to bring the conversation offline and in turn support you through a paid professional exchange. It is your choice to accept their paid help or not. Not everything can be solved for free or instantly.
6. Be ethical and original. Do not steal other's ideas, work, visuals, and or verbiage. You are your own creative being. You do you.
7. Due diligence is up to you. We have lots of amazing businesses in this group. It is up to you to do your due diligence prior to hiring any of them. Members of this group are in no way shape or form endorsed, vetted, or approved by Ali Craig or any of her companies.
8. Respect personal boundaries. We chose Slack vs Facebook because of the intimate nature of the channel. The file sharing, instant updates, searchability, and private messaging are super easy to use on any platform and it doesn't get you side tracked into jumping down the rabbit hole about what is going on in Facebook land. Without said, please do not tag people in post just because, spam, over message or harass in any way your fellow members. Personal boundaries in this group are as follows: If you reach out once and you receive no response then follow up once in a kind, understanding way. After that if you get no response, then walk away.
9. Respect the intellectual property of Ali Craig, MoonRootSpirit and the other members. Sharing files for feedback and resources to better your brand is the entire point of this library. Do not claim any work other than your own as you own {aka use the resources, don't steal the resources.}
10. Ask for approval not forgiveness. Do not upload any visuals that could be viewed as offensive or lewd. When in doubt message us first. We are happy to help. Do not share resources with the group without prior consent from the Ali Craig team.
11. No affiliate links. This group is not your ATM. Do not share affiliate links in this group or to the members. PERIOD.
12. Show and tell. Every Tuesday we will have a SHOW AND TELL Tuesday post. Here and ONLY here can you post about your work, you upcoming free call, course, ebook, etc.
13. Appreciate this library and community. This is a growing and evolving group and resource library. This group is Ali Craig's way of connecting and giving back. We do not own Slack. They could change their rules and regulations at any time. If they change their terms or decide to start charging for groups, that may limit or remove our ability to keep the group open and running. Similarly, if group guidelines are not honored and upheld, this group may also be eliminated.

Here is picture of 28GA FH brass case with the 350gr
Lyman cast slug. It is the slug you cast to use
originally in 20ga shot cups, for slug hunting.
It is nose heavy and will work in smooth bores.
Brass 3.25" cases from Rocky Mtn Cartridge. It
will work in NEF/H&R 28ga modern break action guns
that cost 150 bucks, 26" barrel, you lengthen chamber
for the brass case. Good hunting loads would
be 2000 fps and the gun with a little weight added
and good pad would handle it fine. Had a few guys ask
about 28ga slug shooting, here is away..Ed

Wildcats roll to easy win over Longhorns
Foul trouble keeps three key K-State starters benched
Thomas Gipson had 17 points off the bench, Angel Rodriguez added 11 points and eight assists, and No. 18 Kansas State routed Texas 83-57 on Wednesday night to snap a two-game skid.
Omari Lawrence also scored 12 in a reserve role for the Wildcats (16-4, 5-2 Big 12), who built a 38-19 lead by halftime despite playing long stretches without three key players.
Rodney McGruder, the Big 12's third-leading scorer, picked up two fouls in less than 2 minutes and spent the rest of the half on the bench. Martavious Irving joined him with two fouls moments later, and Will Spradling went to the locker room after getting smacked in the head.
The Longhorns (9-11, 1-6) couldn't capitalize, committing 18 turnovers.
Sheldon McClellan had 15 points on 3 of 12-shooting for Texas.

One of the distinctive characteristics of gangster "business operations" is to make up the rules as they go along. Gangster government does something similar when they ignore courts and Congress and simply go on as if neither had said anything.
One more instance in a long line of that in the U.S. occurred with the recent declaration by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the Orwellian-named "net neutrality" rules. I wrote an article some time ago explaining how any such rules necessarily violate property rights and the right of free trade. Peter Ferrara now demonstrates in an American Spectator essay how Obama's thugs are proceeding Chavez-like to demonstrate how much they truly don't care about that.
On April 6, 2010, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia ruled in Comcast Corp. v. Federal Communications Commission that the FCC does not have the power to issue net neutrality regulation. ...
Rejecting that reasoning in an opinion written by one of the Circuit's more liberal Judges, David Tatel, the Court had to remind the FCC that "administrative agencies may act only pursuant to authority delegated to them by Congress."
The Court said regarding the FCC's reasoning, "if accepted it would virtually free the Commission from its congressional tether." The Court added that "without reference to the provisions of the [FCC's governing] Act directly governing broadcasting, the Commission's ancillary jurisdiction would be unbounded."
Indeed, the FCC's lawyers suggested to the Court in oral argument that in the agency's view it already has the power to impose price controls and rate regulation on Internet service providers and broadband operators.
Yet, the FCC just flouts this decision in going ahead and issuing its net neutrality regulations by rulemaking last week.
If there is any good option at this stage for businessmen — and for us, who trade with them — other than simply ignoring the law, I can't think what it might be. It's either that or passive acquiescence to tyranny.
We in America are now ruled, in fact, by petty dictators unbounded by anything but resource limitations in enforcing their Progressive whims.

World Conservation Award
On the Wolf page, in the additional awards section, the World Conservation Award link goes to the Boy Scout requirements. This should go to the Cub Scout requirements. Since I do not have access, would you mind making the change? It is the same for the Bear and Webelos pages as well.
Thanks for your help Jzweiac 21:31, January 1, 2011 (EST)
- Actually, you do have access to that... it was wrapped inside a template. (See Recent changes or Template:Cub Scout awards (history).) But, that's okay. Good eye there... thanks. I fixed it up, BTW. Thanks, again. —RWSmith (Bureaucrat), 22:57, January 1, 2011 (EST)
- Thanks for doing that. I followed your links and now I think I understand the templates thing. Not a problem, since my Scout is a Wolf right now, it is what I am paying attention the most to. In a few years, I will have gone through the entire Cub Scout section! :) Jzweiac 22:29, January 5, 2011 (EST)
Hello! I have been coming to meritbadge.org for about a year now. I have recently joined Boy Scouts and would like to contribute to this site. I know however that I can not edit without adminship. So I would like to request it! I am currently working on the First Class rank right now. My local scout shop let me volunteer because I am very knolegable in awards! I noticed that the pictures on this wiki are a little outdated. I would like to upload some replacements when or if I am promoted administrator. Please consider this,

Good Articles and Featured Articles
Hello! I think I have a good idea that will help to grow the wiki. Here is my idea: we create a system of good articles and featured articles. Good articles are articles that are perfect in format and are above average. Featured articles are articles that are the best articles on the wiki. These would be displayed on the main page. My idea gives users some competition to grow the wiki. I created these images; they can be lowered in size to put on good or featured article pages.
Good Article - Featured Article
The articles would be nominated on a nomination page. Please consider my idea!

Prudential Realty is sold to Buffett-owned firm
Shakespeare wrote in Romeo and Juliet "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet."
Some have suggested the new name that awaits Prudential Connecticut Realty will be sweeter still because it attaches the company to an internationally powerful, well-respected businessman.
Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway has bought the Prudential real estate agent network from Brookfield Asset Management, a global alternative investment firm with over $150 billion in assets under management, and created Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices.
The name change will occur late next year.
HomeServices of America, a unit of Berkshire's, is already the nation's second largest, full-service residential brokerage firm, according to a news release from Prudential.
"It's not just a name change," said Candace Adams, president of Prudential Connecticut Realty, which is headquartered in Wallingford and also has a corporate office in Shelton.
The new affiliation provides Prudential with an expanded franchise network and "it is grounded in the financial strength of HomeServices and Brookfield, and it brings the Berkshire Hathaway reputation, which is ranked by Forbes in 2012 as one of the most admired companies," Adams said.
Although the name Prudential will disappear from office signs and business cards, Prudential's staff and associated realtors across Fairfield County say they look forward to the transition.
"Prudential is one of the most recognized names in the world, but I think Berkshire Hathaway and Warren Buffett are even more well recognized," said Anne Stark, office leader for the Prudential Connecticut Realty office in Danbury. "We have the backing of a financially stable company at a time when there has been uncertainty and instability in the real estate market," Stark said.
"I think it's terrific. Everything (Buffett) touches turns to gold. He's such an incredible person. I think any association with Berkshire Hathaway is a good one," added Melanie Smith, a real estate broker for Prudential Connecticut Realty in Southport.
Eric Bjork, vice president and director of sales for Prudential, said there was initial anxiety among the 90 agents in his Greenwich office because they knew the company was going to be sold but they didn't know what the brand was going to be. Now they are anticipating it with a lot of enthusiasm, he said.
"Prudential has been a great brand. I've been here 15 years and Prudential has served us well, but I think it's going from good to great," Bjork said.
The parent company, Prudential, had been purchased by Brookfield, which has a great name and company and it's known in commercial real estate circles, he said. But to have the opportunity to use the Berkshire Hathaway name will give them more cache.
"Berkshire Hathaway is number seven on the list of the 50 most respected companies, and Prudential is not even on that list," said Bjork, who is married to Adams.
Bjork said he has 30 years of experience in residential real estate. When he started his career, there was more emphasis on the emotional side of the transaction of buying a home and it has evolved more toward the quantitative investment side, so it makes sense to have an affiliation with someone like Buffet.
"Being in Greenwich with the concentration of financial services firms and hedge funds and the affluent, financially sophisticated clients that we deal with, Berkshire Hathaway resonates -- and it resonates in the positive sense of longevity and trust. People make real estate decisions in a very considered way because it's usually a long-term decision and that's what Warren Buffett is known for; making good, sensible, long-term investments in quality companies," Bjork said.
Under the new ownership, the Prudential company becomes significantly larger, Adams said. There will be an expanded referral network of brokers throughout the country. There will be a much larger national footprint.
Additionally, Adams said, Brookfield Relocation is the second-largest relocation company in the world and they are in partnership with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, so Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices will be servicing Brookfield Relocation clients, "which is a huge advantage to both our brokers and to our clients because they will have reputable, sound professionals handling their business. There will be opportunities for our clients to be exposed to cutting-edge technology and expanded marketing for their home and enhanced training for our salespeople by this new company," Adams said.
For today, nothing will change; Prudential Connecticut Realty will remain a Prudential franchise and continue to provide the same service to its customers.
Since the name change will not occur until at least the third quarter of 2013, it gives people time to get used to the change, Smith said.

The final three competitors sang their hearts out Monday in the hopes of winning America's votes, and ultimately being named "The Voice."
Ahead of a star-studded finale set for Tuesday night, Christina Grimmie kicked off the penultimate episode of "The Voice" by singing the Miley Cyrus hit, "Wrecking Ball." The song was America's pick for Christina's repeat performance, after viewers voted on what past song they wanted to see again -- this time around she stepped it up a notch, complete with fireworks and a backdrop of flashing lights.
"I'm not surprised at all that's the song America picked for you to sing," said Blake Shelton. "You have the opportunity to hit all those big notes that you can do and that's the Christina I've been excited about every time you get on that stage."
Her coach Adam Levine also noted that watching her perform the song again was a good reflection of her transformation as an artist.
"I'm just bursting with pride for you," he said.
Her second performance only brought her transformation even farther when she came back with her own rendition of Elvis Presley's "Can't Help Falling in Love."
Starting out a cappella and finishing by showing off her dynamic range, coach Adam was brought to his feet.
"When I think about what epitomizes the winner on this show it's the artistry, it's the fearlessness and every step of the way this girl has made all the choices on her own," Adam said. "I think that this is yours, you're going to win this show."
Shakira, who has no artists in the final three, said, "That was flawless. I was in complete awe, I mean, wow, this wasn't a conservative choice or an obvious choice and I think that's your trademark."
Adam and Christina also got to perform together on stage singing, Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know."
Country singing teen Jake Worthington came full circle by the end of the night by singing America's pick, "Don't Close Your Eyes," by Keith Whitely, which was the song he sang at his first performance of the season – during his blind audition.
Jake serenaded the crowd by playing his guitar to accompany his confident vocals.
The coaches all spoke about Jake's growth as a singer, noting that no chairs turned around for him when he competed in the blind auditions of the previous "Voice" season.
"It's because of your hard work and because of your gumption you continue to grow," said Usher.
Coach Blake showed his appreciation as a fellow country artist, happy to see his artist singing 80's classics, regardless of Jake being 17 years old.
"The fact that you continue to throw it back to those guys in country music," said Blake, "I love that about you, and I thank you as a country artist."
Jake's second performance was another flashback to the 80s with an emotional performance of Richard Marks' "Right Here Waiting."
Usher, as an R&B artist even related to the young country hopeful because of his conviction when he sang.
"A song like that is all about the emotion," Usher said of Jake's interpretation of the song, "and being able to identify with that right there is a trait I love."
Blake delivered the ultimate compliment by saying, "In six seasons of being coach on this show, I don't think there's been a more sincere messenger of a lyric than you."
Dubbed "Blake and Jake" by the end of the episode, the two sang a duet of "Country Folks Can Survive," by Hank Williams Jr.
Soulful singer Josh Kaufman took the stage for the first time in the finals to sing the voter's pick of "Sign Sealed Delivered," by Stevie Wonder.
The upbeat performance was bittersweet for Coach Adam, as he was reminded of the night he lost Josh to Coach Usher in the battle rounds.
Host Carson Daly even commented on his energy at the end of his performance, saying, "It was like you were possessed in the last four minutes."
Usher gave Josh a standing ovation and said his unique soulful sound is what the show needs.
"He has the ability to change 'The Voice,' he is 'The Voice."
Josh finished out the show with a performance of Adele's "Set Fire to the Rain," which ended with the singer dropping to his knees with emotion. A song which started softly, ended with pyrotechnic effects and a fierce orchestra accompaniment.
"You're super amazing," was all Adam could say among the continously cheering audience.
"This is the representation of what 'The Voice' is," said Coach Usher. "You are the winner of this competition," he said.
The coaches also got their time to perform. Shakira and Blake sang the title track of Shakira's album, "Medicine," and Adam and Usher sang D'Angelo's "How Does it Feel." On Tuesday night, Coldplay, OneRepublic, Tim McGraw and Ed Sheeran will perform live.
With the fate of the final three now in the hands of the viewers, tune in for the finale to see who will ultimately be named "The Voice."
The "Voice" finale airs Tuesday at 8/7c.

HOUSTON – Even as Bobby Boswell jumped on Omar Cummings' back to celebrate his game-tying goal, it was the lightest the forward has felt all year.
After a season with three knee injuries, a groin injury, a hamstring injury and an extensive rehab program that relegated him to reserve action, the decorated scorer finally came through for the team that traded for him at last Christmas thinking he would come bearing gifts.
Now, nearly 12 months later, his tap-in of a loose ball after Boswell's header was spilled not only equalized the first leg of the Eastern Conference Semifinals, but took the weight of a spoiled season off Cummings' shoulders.
"Games like this and scoring a goal is what's been pushing me," Cummings said after Sunday's draw. "It's been very difficult physically, but also mentally. You're not getting the playing time you're used to even. Yes, the season's past, but I've still got a lot of important goals to score for this club."
Cummings came to Houston last winter in an attempt to add both speed and finishing to the Dynamo lineup. A preseason meniscus surgery scuttled that idea, and subsequent surgeries later in the year left Cummings a spectator or late-game fill-in down the stretch. As a second-half substitute Sunday, he filled the latter role to perfection when his team needed him most.
"I said earlier this week it would take the entire group," said Dynamo captain Brad Davis. "The playoffs have been a time where we have had some guys step up in different situations. I hope it gives him a boost of confidence going into the next game."
That goal epitomized Houston's comeback after the Dynamo fell behind 2-0 at home to the Red Bulls in the first half. Needing something to go their way, Houston responded in the second half, but despite getting a goal from Ricardo Clark in the 51st minute, palpable urgency remained.
Cummings, who also drew the red card that will rule Red Bulls center back Jamison Olave out of Wednesday's match, said his goal was a direct product of that mentality.
"I think for myself and the team it's a 'will-goal,'" Cummings said. "You need a push, you need a point. You need to go to New York at least level, if not better. That's the kind of goal you just will in."
After Cummings came through at the end of Sunday's game, even Boswell's euphoric goal celebration did not bother him.
"I was pumped," Cummings said with a smile. "Bobby got on there, and I was like, 'I'll carry you the entire way.' I was pumped. I definitely wasn't bothered."

BofA: Record Fannie Mae Profit Could Hurt Agency Debt, MBS
- Order Reprints
- Print Article
Bank of America Merrill Lynch today says that the record 2012 earnings announced by Fannie Mae (FNMA) and Freddie Mac (FMCC) this week could actually be a problem for agency debt as it undermines the need for continued government support and conservatorship. Here's BofA rates strategist Priya Misra:
With strong earnings and a much lower credit risk profile, the possibility of privatization has returned as one of the potential paths for Fannie and Freddie's future. Such a possibility could entail a total break with the government, or at least some reduction of support, and this is where spreads of GSE liabilities, both debt and MBS, could become vulnerable.
Bof A notes the recent rise in both Fannie and Freddie equity trading volume (and price - up 13% and 14% respectively today) as investors increasingly see much more positive long-term outlooks. More from Misra:
In a nutshell, the large earnings of GSEs combined with the new way GSEs make payments to the Treasury raises the possibility that not only might the GSEs return all the borrowed capital to the government, but at a surprisingly fast pace. Although we would not be surprised to see episodes of small to moderate widening of debt spreads based on these developments, our view is that this earnings story does not pose a real threat to debt holders....
Based on our understanding of the rules and how we see the government's incentives, especially around keeping mortgage markets fully functional and maximizing the benefits to taxpayers, we would see widening episodes as buying opportunities. We still like the longest end of the debt curve because we think it prices in the most risk premium for an uncertain GSE future. The Treasury department has reiterated its support of GSE liabilities through the available capital lines. We expect these capital lines to remain available during any transition to a new mortgage finance system given the very limited circumstances under which the capital lines can be terminated.

Endangered species vanishing without explanation
Sun Aug 19 2012 Byline: Margaret Munro
TORONTO - Sheila Colla wades into the pye weeds, her net swooping over the pink flowers. "This is bumble bee heaven," she says, as she catches a bee and nudges it from the net into a small plastic vial for inspection.
It's a lemon cuckoo bumble bee, one of the strange cast of characters in the bee world. The cuckoo bee invades colonies, usurps the queen and enslaves her workers.
There is no sign, however, of the rusty-patched bumble bee that Colla has been searching for all summer. It used to be one of the most common bees in southern Ontario and Quebec but is now one of the rarest.
In fact, the rusty-patched bumble bee, known to scientists as Bombus affinis, is the first bee in North America to be officially declared an endangered species.
Federal Environment Minister Peter Kent added the bee to Canada's list this summer and federal wildlife advisers warn the bee appears to be on the brink of extinction.
Climate change, pesticides, habitat loss and pathogens are suspects, but no one can say with certainty why it has vanished.
Few people even realized the bee was in trouble until Colla, a PhD student at York University, documented the drastic decline. "It shows we are really not paying attention, which is kind of scary," she says.
Bees may not be everyone's favourite bugs - onlookers tend to take a few steps back when they realize Colla is using her net to catch bees, not butterflies - but they are key ecological players.
They're essential for production of fruit and seeds that feed everything from bears to birds. They also pollinate crops that produce one-third of the human food supply.
"Yet most people consider them to be an irritant," says York biologist Laurence Packer, keeper of Canada's biggest bee collection.
The cabinets in his lab contain thousands of bees from as far north as Ellesmere Island and as far south as Patagonia. Some are the size of aphids, others big as small birds. There are also dozens of different species of bumble bees, which Packer describes as "the charismatic fauna of the bee world."
The only species the York team avoids is the honey bee, which gets plenty of attention from other researchers.
Packer and his graduate students focus on wild bees - about 19,500 species in the world, 808 of them in Canada. They say the insects deserve more attention and appreciation, in part because they are such sensitive environmental indicators. "They're like the canary in the coal mine," says Packer.
And when a common species such as the rusty-patched bumble bee disappears, he says, "it's a warning signal that things are going wrong in the great outdoors."
Many bees across Canada are in decline. The western bumble bee has vanished from most of its range in British Columbia and the United States in the last decade, and Colla says that about half the 21 bumble bee species in Eastern Canada have seen significant population drops in recent decades.
But the loss of the rusty-patched bumble bee has been most dramatic.
The bee with a distinct orange patch on its abdomen used to forage for pollen and nectar on milkweeds, sunflowers, clovers, berry and fruit blossoms across Southern Ontario and Quebec.
Colla became intrigued in 2004 when she came across a survey from the 1970s of 3,632 bees from southern Ontario. Bombus affinis was the fourth most common of 14 species.
She repeated the survey and found not a single rusty-patched bumble bee. Colla expanded the search to other areas of Ontario and the U.S. She did eventually find two in Pinery Provincial Park in southwest Ontario: one in 2005 , the other in 2009. The bees are now skewered on straight pins and stored in a glass-covered case in the York lab.
Only one other rusty-patched bee has been spotted in Canada in the last decade. It, too, was seen in Pinery Park in 2009.
The search for the bee continues this summer. Colla and assistant Kristin Wazbinski are visiting dozens of sites where the Bombus affinis was historically found in Ontario for a project sponsored by Wildlife Preservation Canada, a non-profit group.
Colla and Wazbinski are catching plenty of bumble bees - they netted nine different species one day near Peterborough, Ont. - but not a single rusty-patched bumble bee. The situation is only slightly better in the U.S., with researchers finding a few of the bees in Wisconsin and Minnesota this summer.
While most people can't tell one species from another, bumblebees are not interchangeable.
Bombus polaris, which flits around the Arctic pollinating tundra flowers that produce wild berries, has thick pile on its body and can withstand long, dark, sub-zero winters.
The rusty-patched bee was the earliest bee to emerge in the spring in southern Canada and one of the last to stop foraging in the fall. It was also adapt at "nectar-robbing," strategically slicing tiny holes in flowers to get at nectar not otherwise reachable with its short tongue, says Colla, who is working on the first field guide to the 42 species of bumble bees in North America.
Unlike honey bees that overwinter in their colonies, bumble bees live from just spring to fall with only queens surviving the winter.
Bumble bee queens emerge in the spring and forage alone for several weeks, replenishing their fat supply "just like a bear," says Colla. The queen then makes a nest, often in a rodent burrow, and lays eggs to produce 100 to 200 workers over the summer to take care of the nest and forage for food. In late summer "new queens and kings" are produced and mate, says Colla. Fertilized new queens go into hibernation while the rest of the bees perish.
Worker bumble bees are common in the summer months and are not much bigger than honey bees. They are usually a combination of black, orange and yellow, unlike honey bees that have brownish bodies, says Colla, who can identify the different species at a glance.
She is also quick to spot the males, which don't sting. She takes one from her net to demonstrate. The seemingly dazed male bee meanders across her palm and eventually takes flight.
Colla and Wazbinski may spend their time catching bees, but they have yet to be stung this summer. They are more concerned about ticks, poison ivy and thorny plants. "Walking into a field of thistle is no fun," says Colla.
The demise of the rusty-patched bumble bee has been linked to several factors, but the mystery is far from solved.
One suspect is pathogens spread by commercial greenhouse operations that use bumble bees to pollinate tomatoes, cucumbers and other hothouse crops. The commercial bees are allowed to fly in an out of Canadian greenhouses, says Colla, who would like Canada's hothouse industry to explore keeping its bees inside with screens, as has been proposed in Japan.
Potent pesticides, called neonicotinoids, which are widely used to kill bugs on crops and fleas on domestic pets, may also be associated with the demise of Bombus affinis. Recent European studies suggest the chemicals interfere with bees' ability to navigate and find their way back to their nests.
Colla and researcher Jeremy Kerr at the University of Ottawa are looking into the possibility that climate change may have hit the rusty-patched bee hard.
Because the bee emerged so early in the spring and foraged until late fall, it was vulnerable to storms and weather extremes that have grown more pronounced in recent decades, says Colla.
Scientists say the loss of the bee may be impacting food chains and ecosystems. Bombus affinis was known to visit everything from raspberries and lilacs in the spring to goldenrod and asters in the fall. But they say it is difficult to pin down effects.
"I worry about the spring ephemeral flowers," says Colla, noting the rusty-patched bumble bee was one of the few insects around to pollinate trilliums, trout lilies and spring lilies.
Packer says things are amiss when a species vanishes. And he says human society needs to become more attuned to the changes underway in the natural world.
In his book "Keeping the Bees," Packer describes how bees around the world are at risk from habitat loss, pesticide use, disease and other factors. Because of the integral role the insects play in the ecology of the planet, he warns "we may be at risk as well."
"It's the small things that run the world."

This was my first experience with this company and it was a positive one. I had a few questions and customer service was very helpful. Certain search engines did not show the picture I had originally selected giving me the impression that it was no longer available. Customer service rep walked me through how to access the item in a round about way. Will use this company again.

June 20 proclamation presentation will recognize the bald eagle success story
TOPEKA — Governor Sam Brownback has declared Monday, June 20, as American Eagle Day in Kansas in recognition of the American bald eagle and its growing population in the Sunflower State. Brownback will present a signed proclamation to representatives of the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks on June 20 during a 10:30 a.m. ceremony at the Great Plains Nature Center, 6232 E 29th Street North (at the intersection of Woodlawn and 29th Street North), in Wichita. The public is invited to attend and admission is free. Naturalists from the Prairie Park Nature Center in Lawrence will be on hand with a live bald eagle.
According to Brownback, "The American bald eagle is a real conservation success story and one in which Kansas has played an important role. Bald eagles have become increasingly common in Kansas thanks to the efforts of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service; the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks; and the support of many state conservation organizations and dedicated individuals."
In Kansas, the numbers of eaglets hatched annually has increased from two eaglets in one nest in 1989 — at Clinton Reservoir — to 69 eaglets from 34 nests in 2010. Most of the nest sites are in eastern and central Kansas.
Bald eagles typically nest near water in large trees and add material to the nest and use it in subsequent years. Usually, two eggs are laid, and it takes the young four to five years to develop adult plumage. Migrant eagles from the north often congregate around Kansas lakes, streams, and wetlands during the winter. They feed primarily on fish, waterfowl, mammals, and carrion.
Bald eagles became the national symbol in 1782, but the population declined sharply due habitat loss as human populations spread, widespread poaching, and DDT use after World War II. DDT accumulated in the eagles and caused the females to lay weak-shelled eggs, which broke during incubation.
By the 1970's the population had dropped to about 2,000 birds with only 400 nesting pairs in the lower 48 states. After DDT was banned in 1972, concerted conservation efforts reversed the decline, and the eagle's population has been slowly increasing. They are no longer listed as threatened or endangered under the federal Endangered Species Act or as threatened in Kansas. They're still protected under two other federal Acts that protect bald and golden eagles, and migratory birds.

Bahraini medical leaders are attempting to tackle the country's diabetes problem head on by launching numerous educational programs on prevention and planning diabetic medical centers that specialized in treating this disease, according to Akhbar Alkhaleej daily.
Doctors and other leading health officials met yesterday for a symposium on the disease and emphasized the importance of early diagnosis and treatment of this disease.
A 1995 government family health study found that up to 19% of women 50 or over and 14 percent of the men in the same age category were diabetics. The costs of the visits to the medical centers by the diabetic patients in Bahrain amount to BD 1,144,000 per annum. The Deputy Head of the Health Centers Doctors Association, Dr. Tawfeeq Naseeb, revealed that the main causes for diabetic are as follows: changes in the people life-style, use of high-calorie food, use of fat, use of fast meals, heavy weight, lack of movement, life pressure and inheritance factors. (BD1=$2.65).
Yesterday's symposium, held at the Medicine and Sciences Faculty of the Arab Gulf University, was organized by Bahraini Diabetics Association and the Health Ministry. The Undersecretary of Health, Mr. Abdullrahman Abdullah Bouali, attended.
