Honeybee Killer Found by Army and Entomologists
A fungus and a virus apparently caused the honeybee “colony collapse.”
Initially when the bees disappeared we thought it was a mite infection. I was running two hives and was very tired of honey. I made no effort to replace them. When there is a cure for colony collapse I will consider a hive or two. The suppers and frames do cost and must be destroyed when the colony goes. Just good house keeping. no point in infecting the neighbourhood. -
Vargas Llosa Is Awarded Nobel Prize in Literature
The Peruvian writer’s deeply political work examines the perils of power and corruption in Latin America. Another writer on my list of musts. Our nation has not done well in Central and South America. They have been doing better recently but we need to compose some better instruction texts. Plato and Machiavelli should not have the last word. -

Case Study Follow-Up: What Firehouse Subs Learned
“Great case study -> What Firehouse Subs Learned - http://nyti.ms/a7XL6o”. 17% positive change in year over year sales is a big change. Well worth a 6% charge against those sales. 11% gain in sales for the local operators. Mass marketing works.It is not the kind of business I want to be in.The nations problem is that there is no money at the bottom.Thus I will not look for money at the bottom.I want to supply custom or semi custom goods to those who can afford them.Moss rather than Wallmart.

“In Art Exhibit, Singapore Honors a Son of China - http://nyti.ms/8YnQGH” Lots of words, no pictures. I am not going to go for the show. I will happily go for the city. Gaugan did. I don't remember water lilies with you. Worth the effort.

For the A-Cup Crowd, Minimal Assets Are a Plus
Many women these days want to showcase their small chests, not pad them out. Retailers are listening.I was reluctant to take the time to make pictures with you. I did not want the interference. I would like to correct that.

Better Abdominal Muscles Through Makeup?
“See my Miami friend @StefanPinto IN NYT article today. Better Abdominal Muscles Through Makeup? - http://nyti.ms/cAGyBy He looks awesome! ”What a hoot!I will buff up if you wish but I would rather work than work out. I float these days but still not very high. I knew an active male model. I do not qualify. I am happy not to need the big and tall shops. At times of strain some paint really helps.

Field Report: Will Work for Food
“New back to the land movement: Field Report: Will Work for Food - http://nyti.ms/aLx0QA #localfood #eatlocal #NewFarmerCoalition”Not a place I need to go. A real good idea for other people. I would capitalize such an effort if it had competent management. I just want a moderate shed at this point. Real fresh vegetables I will put time into but they are a hobby.

The important thing is to begin.
Doing it is most of it.
