The honeybee, Apis mellifera, is the proclaimed state insect of over ten states including North Carolina. A hard working and ecologically important species, the honeybee is one of the animal pollinators responsible for the pollination of nearly 75% of the world's 115 leading agricultural crops. Though other insects, birds, and bats are also pollinators, the growth and health of crops are majorly dependent on honeybees. This is a great example of a keystone species as other species rely heavily on them and ecosystems could collapse without them. It's well known that honeybee populations have been declining for two decades (more than a 90% decline) mainly due to varroa mites and disease. Colony Collapse Disorder, an event in which the majority of worker bees abandon the hive and queen, was recognized as a serious threat in 2006 and it's thought to have been caused by by pesticides and habitat destruction, as well as parasite infestations. However, it was reported that the number of commercial honeybee colonies rose 3% in 2017 thanks to the work of beekeepers and the EPA's policy that prohibits the use of certain neonicotinoid pesticides while bees are present. Likewise, there's been a development of approved varroa mite control products. The rise in populations is hopeful but there is still more work to be done to ensure the stability of this species.

The band 'Tehachapi' : Cookie, James, Constantine & Laura. (From top to bottom)
"Constantine tells me the name of the band symbolises it's strength. 'Tehachapi : Four Seasons and Sweetwater.' He explains it is an American Indian term for a parcel of land located in the Western part of California where green fields and rivers move to the snow capped Mountains of the Rockies. A type of 'Four Seasons into one area.'"

I made this for my cute newphew's 4th birthday. 45 minute drive to my brothers and all went well till I took my hand off for about 2 secs to grab my phone and what happened? Andrew hit the brakes, the cake went smooshing all around the container and all the sides mushed. I wouldn't get out of the driveway for 10 minutes I was so heartbroken. Thank goodness it wasn't a paid gig or I would have been devestated. Quick fix (& picnik editing) and looked okay! He loved them and that was the main thing.

I took these closeups of a fly I found buzzing in my kitchen. I had to use an old sodium lamp to light it as it was too dark, and I didnt have time to set up a tripod - so I grabbed my only free lamp and made the best of what I could from it. The white balance was totally screwy (inventive uni students know what I mean) but when compensated for it actually gave a really cool effect. I plan to reshoot, now that I see the quality I can get.
I had a Simpsons Buzz Cola can saved from the 7-11 promotions which apparently exploded. I think these CDs were sitting on my shelf for about a day, soaking up the cola. I believe this is another step in the Autechre curse. Basically, that gold monochromatic CD (Tri Repatae++ by Autechre) is the third copy of that CD I have bought. I lost the first one, and I lent the second one to a co-worker who then got arrested for drug possession and went to jail. Now on my third copy, the liner notes gets completely soaked in cola. I can clean the CDs, but I still think this CD is cursed. I have a friend who has the same CD, and he too has had issues, including lending it to a friend who never returned it. I refuse to buy this CD a fourth time!

Buzz trimming the kite & Ralf on the helm, staying ahead of the competition as we headed downwind in our last race saturday...
unfortunately at the leeward mark, as we tried to drop the spinnaker, its halyard got jammed in a cleat on the mast, which lead to all sorts of troubles, and we did not finish well in this race as a result. but adding the three races together for saturday, we took 3rd place out of 16 Express 27s, quite exciting for my first day sailing on this type of boat!
