Is it illegal to carry publicly or own butterfly knife in Oklahoma?

I bought my butterfly knife, which is less than 4 inches of blade, in Texas and brought it to Oklahoma.


Is it illegal to carry it publicly or possess it in the house?|||From what I read it looks like you can possess it but can't carry it except under the Oklahoma Self-Defense Act. I can't find anything about that so if I were you I would assume you can own but not carry.

How long does it take a painted lady butterfly to emerge from it's chrysalis?

We ordered caterpillars through the mail. They are chrysalis's now. How long will it take for the butterfly to emerge?|||We also ordered some thru the mail. The care packet that came with them said they will emerge about 7-10 days after they form the chrysalis. Ours are actually coming out as I type. My son is going nuts!!|||It will take approximately 7-11 days for them to emerge. They will emerge quicker if it is warmer. DO NOT PUT THEM IN A SPOT THAT WILL PROBABLY MAKE YOU COLD! REMEMBER-THEY STILL ARE ALIVE!

How long does it take for a Monarch Butterfly's wings to dry after emerging?

My son got a Monarch Butterfly kit from the State fair. It just emerged this morning but it's wings are still folded and crumpled. It should have dried out by now. We put more milkweed in with it but I'm just wondering if there is anything else we can do. Has anyone else seen this?|||first off yes it should have dried by now, I have a butterfly garden and I've had several Viceroy's, Spicebush Swallowtails, Sphinx Moths that are born like that where their wings dry crumpled. I don't think anything can be done about it. It's just nature.





You might try rewetting it's wings with a spray bottle loaded with some distilled water, but the problem is that you can't touch the wings, maybe gently with tweezers uncrumple them. I'm not offering hope here but it might work.





p.s. I found this blog talking about the same problem. http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/load/鈥?/a>|||Im not sure i usually blow dry them after i tear them off.

Why is it illegal to carry switchblades and butterfly knives, or any weapon of the sort?

i want to get a switchblade and or butterfly knife, and a lot of them maybe, but i have no intent of using them as weapons. so im wondering, why is it illegal to carry such things?|||Laws are for everyone, not just you.





Did you know that knife fights are considered more deadly than gunfights?





How is that? You might ask.





It is because most gun fights take place at a greater distance and frequently result in no-one being hit.





not only that, but it is more likely to inflict a wound that is a quicker kill with a blade than a bulet





many gun-shots are not lethal if medical attention is gotten quickly enough. But if someone cuts your aorta, it could happen in front of the emergency room door, and they could not save you quick enough.





Many of the guys who would like to have one of those knives, it is so he can be a more proficient fighter. So we make it a way to take him off the streets. I'm ok with that.





If you do not want the knife for fighting, don't carry a fighting knife.|||Knives like that have no legal purpose OTHER than as a weapon. That is why they are outlawed in most places.





It is sometimes possible to get a collector's license for the weapons. That depends on your location.|||Most states consider it to be a concealed weapon and as such you need a permit to carry as you would a firearm|||They are concealed weapons. They only purpose they serve is as a concealed weapon. Thus, you can't carry them.|||What is the point of carrying such a weapon if you have no intention of using it? A pocket knife will work for any legal usage.|||because some people do use them as weapons, and they aren't hard to hide, get out and then stab somebody

What flowers can I put in my Butterfly Garden?

My mom hired this guy to do our landscaping. Im on vacation and when I get home I'm helping make a butterfly garden. We live on the east coast and have great climate.I talked to the gut and he said I can pick any flowers or butterflies and we try to attract the butterflies or buy those flowers. Any ideas?|||There are a lot of plants you can use. You can also check with local nurseries to see if they have any handouts on plants specific for your area.

Can I keep cardinal tetras with a black ghost knife fish and two African butterfly fish?

I would like to keep two African butterfly fish and one black ghost knife fish (3inches) with cardinal tetras and xl penguin tetras. Is this ok or will the tetras get eaten.|||African butterfly fish, also known as Pantodons, have very large mouths and will easily swallow a cardinal tetra. At the price of cardinal tetras, I would not suggest it. Some fish stores say that you can keep neon tetras with black ghost knife fish but in my experience the black ghost knife will usually eat the neons. You might get lucky and get one that does not but again your chances are not good. A three inch black ghost knife is just a baby so if you can get neons cheaply enough start with a big school and if they don't disappear you can add a few Cardinals from time to time. I used to be able to buy small neon tetras for 20 cents each. Now they are about $2 each. Depending upon the size of your pocket book and the size of your tank it might be worth the gamble.|||Black ghost knife fish (Apteronotus albifrons) usually grow to around 30-35cm in length and they are quite capable of consuming small fish such as Tetras. However the Butterfly fish should be large enough not to be eaten. You could try the larger Rasbora species.|||it will be fine as ghost knifes are very slow moving fish and will not be able to catch the fast moving tetras. butterfly fish are quite peaceful|||It would be okay, but ensure your black ghost doesn't get too big, as it can consume tetras.

What is a caterpillar called before being a butterfly?

Before I get the answer that I'm foreseeing, I mean it more like this:





A butterfly is an insect because it has six legs. A caterpillar has more than six legs, so it is not an insect. It morphs into being an insect. What is a caterpillar classified as when it has more than six legs?|||Quite interesting analysis. When the egg hatches out pops a caterpillar. It has six legs and may have a bunch of pseudo legs to help it keep attached to eats leaves etc. As it grows its outer skin doesn't stretch enough to contain the caterpillar so it splits and the caterpillar crawls out of it. This change from on skin size to the next is called an "Instar." When the butterfly completes its last instar, It attaches itself to a suitable foundation and hangs usually upside down and the skin splits for the last time are reveals a chrysalis with the morphing butterfly inside. In its time, the chrysalis splits open and the butterfly emerges. It takes several hours for the wings to expand and dry before the butterfly can fly.|||Caterpillars have 6 legs and then pro legs (they are fake suction cup feet) on the abdomen. The caterpillar goes like this caterpillar -%26gt; pupa -%26gt; adult. So if its a moth the pupa will be a "cocoon" if the caterpillar is a butterfly the pupa is a "crystalist"|||The catterpillar makes a coccoon around itself; the butterfly emerges from the coccoon and (after sitting for a while to let its wings unfurl and dry out) flies away.

What's that myth about a butterfly flapping its' wing and a tsunami happening?

I know there's a myth or theory about it, like a butterfly flapping its' wing in New York and a tsunami happening in Florida? Something like that.|||It's not exactly related to time travel. Th point is, small things in a seemly ordinary place or time can lead to exponential events. It's an exercise proposed into the chaos theory that the small turbulence from a butterfly flight can lead to a chain event so massive that it could produce a hurricane some time after. This is used in meteorology to find non linear patterns for better weather predictions, for being a non linear system, the weather is a chaotic System. Also, keep in mind that it's really unlikely that a butterfly flap actually leads to a hurricane, it's just and example, and NEVER to a tsunami, tsunamis and hurricanes are completely different things. Tsunamis originate with earthquakes on the sea floor, and there's simply nothing that living beings can make on the surface of the planet that is big enough to cause this kind of earthquake.|||It's to do with chaos theory.

Scientists love to come out with memorable notions which then often get tragically misunderstood. The idea is that weather being an immensely complex and unpredictable system is highly sensitive to tiny influences.





So maybe a butterfly flaps its wings and later on the tiny air currents get bigger and bigger and end up causing a hurricane while if the butterfly hadn't flapped its wings then maybe a hurricane wouldn't have formed - or at least would have formed in a different place.

How does the Theory of Evolution explain the migratory pattern of the monarch butterfly?

The Monarch butterfly migrates thousands of miles from Mexico to Canada every year -- it takes three generations to make it to Canada, and a final fourth "super generation" to fly all the way back to Mexico. Where did these monarchs get their instinct from, so that generations never having flown to Canada or Mexico, know exactly where to go, and what to do? How is this genetic encoding attained, based on the process of evolution...?|||scientists have discovered that many animals migrate using the magnetic field of the earth. Birds, amphibians and turtles are some examples. instinctive behaviors are governed by fixed action patterns, which are neural networks, or a group of neurons that fire in a fixed sequence to activate different muscles of the body. An example of fixed action pattern is vomiting. Vomiting is not learned behavior, and infants are born with the ability to vomit. Once started, a fixed action pattern cannot be interrupted and will only proceed to completion. Therefore we cannot stop ourselves from vomiting even when our brains may try to interrupt it.



The monarch butterfly's instincts are probably similarly encoded in their DNA. A magnetic map of their migratory route can probably be stored in the DNA and/or fixed action patterns that result in migratory behavior can be stored in their DNA. Even though instinctive behavior is not learned, it still requires an appropriate stimulus or stimuli to be triggered. For example, we do not (thankfully) randomly start to vomit. We do not suddenly vomit while sitting in a restaurant, at our dinner table, or while we are kissing our loved ones, for example. Something needs to trigger the vomiting behavior, such as a finger inserted into the throat for example.



Therefore not every generation of monarch butterfly will exhibit the same behavior, or a behavior that is not appropriate for it. For example, those born in the nothern United States will not fly north as if they were in Mexico. By requiring that a particular instinct will only be triggered by the appropriate stimulus, the monarch can store several sets of instincts, but only the appropriate set will be triggered by the appropriate stimulus/stimuli. That could result in the observed behavior of multiple generations seemingly knowing what to do as soon as they are born.



Of course, Murphy's law states that if something can go wrong, then it will. In every generation, perhaps a few individuals may have a genetic defect, and these individuals may have the inappropriate sets of instincts triggered by the wrong stimulus. they will likely perish. If by chance, their "wrong" behaviors confer them an advantage because the environment has changed, then these individuals would perhaps be the only survivors, and there could be an abrupt change in the behavior of Monarchs. Therefore natural selection will constantly monitor and refine the behavior of monarchs to make sure each generation does the "right" thing. Of course, the possibility of extinction is always present. Natural selection cannot eliminate that possibility, but it will allow animals to avoid extinction if they can adapt to changes.|||I suspect you would get a better answer reading the works of the leading evolutionary biologists like Dawkins than posting here.


The forms of evidence that convince us so strongly of evolution don't always preserve a good record of behavior like migration, except for the wide swaths of area over which certain fossilized animals may be found and the ways that migration is seen in such a larger variety of related species today. So we may never learn the way specific migratory patterns emerged for each species.


We might look more to geology. Perhaps the butterflies simply continued flying a pattern that developed millions of years ago and as the continents drifted farther the butterflies simply added a few inches every century.


In the end, all evolution tells us is that if they do it, it must give them some benefit. Perhaps having such a wide range for their species helps prevent them from getting too reliant on a single food source, too devastated by a few predators or too disabled by local weather variations.|||If the shoe fits, wear it. Judging from your Yahoo name, I am guessing you are anti-evolution. However, one day for God is not necessarily one Earth day. So if God created the earth and the universe in six days, that may possibly be 12 billion years for Earthlings. Darwin and Genesis both agree that first the universe was formed, then the Earth, then plants appeared, then animals, and finally man. Why the creation/evolution debate?

Why would you use The Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection to explain butterfly migration? That would be ridiculous. This theory would be used to explain how and why allele frequency changes in populations of monarch butterfly over time but that's all.





%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;[blab blab blab...Where did these monarchs get their instinct from]


This question is not address by the theory of evolution. The theory of evolution addresses why allele frequencies change over time.





%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;[...]How is this genetic encoding attained


The genetic code refers to how codons are translated into amino acids. The question you are asking is how instinct can result for sequences of DNA.





%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;, based on the process of evolution...?


and for this, the answer is yes. Genes for different instinctual behaviors arose through natural variation. These variations have different consequences. Those organisms with genes that had deleterious consequences (inability to sense magnetic fields, a circadian cycle out of sync with the solar cycle) were less able to compete with butterflies that were good a sensing their environment.





Judging from your user name, I take this as an attempt to use the "god of the gaps" argument. Whenever there is a gap in understanding, invoke your favorite deity to supply an answer. This is a dangerous road to take for supernatural beings because it leads to diminished power over time for these magical beings as we learn natural explanations for phenomena that seemed supernatural.





Also, while "[your favorite god] did it" is a perfectly valid answer to any question, it is also a cop out answer. It tells us nothing more than not having that answer. We learn nothing about the world and we are just as helpless to try to figure out how things will behave in the future.

How do you build endurance for butterfly swimming?

I run but mostly swim almost everyday for an hour, use a drag suit, and have trained with paddles and fins. I just recently began to swim competitively for my high school and am wondering how to do the butterfly for a 100 yard race? I've got the style in my muscle memory and the kick. My stroke's good but I get way too tired, especially off the turns. For some reason, slowing down and then having to kick underwater 9 times without oxygen burns me out. Help! Also, do push-ups or crunches help?|||butterfly is one of those most demanding strokes next to... believe or not breast stroke. fly is a short axis stroke meaning it requires you to use your core which is one of the main body parts you need for swimming.





to swim fly you need broad shoulders, long arms, small legs, strong core, strong will, and amazing technique. if your not blessed with these gifts you can learn to compensate. for the most part i would recommend more swimming, in general. if you're practicing an hour a day you're missing out on great opportunities.





swimming doesn't mean that because you use certain things you'll get faster. fliers have to understand how to grip the water and how to move quickly while doing so. when you swim fly you should be taking two kicks per one stroke, the best way is one strong kick when your hands enter and one when your hands are pulling down at about your ab level you do this to provide constant movement with your kick. as for your hips they should be coming out of the water, but naturally, as part of an undulating movement of the body that starts with the abs and goes down the the feet. let your hips drop but not to far and keep your legs going no matter how tiring a race can get. most importantly get a complete stroke every time that reaches out, although extremely tiring and difficult to do when you start to fade it teaches you endurance, commitment and builds shoulder strength. i can't completely describe butterfly to you as it should feel because 1) i don't know it perfectly yet and 2) you need to feel somethings for yourself





there are things i could type over the internet, like drills, to help you with your fly but unless someone was there to tell you you were doing it right or wrong it wouldn't be much help. in the long run keep the arms long and feel smooth. not too much undulation but make sure its there. fast turns!!! if you slow down your stroke falls apart. don't underwater kick unless you know how it'll affect your race, start with a decent number of dolphin kicks at the beginning of the race and adjust as your body needs oxygen. breathe! every other or every other two your body need the oxygen for a race like that.





for training like i said the most you can do is increase the time in the pool. but to improve what you already do, make sure you get full reaches on your arms without disturbing your stroke. swim lots of endurance freestyle to familiarize yourself with the discomfort of a hard race. get every chance to do fly when your coach offers your group "stroke". talk to your coach about your problem too, no one knows better than him/her cause i can't really offer good advice over the internet w/o seeing your fly and the improvements you make over time.





get some abs in and develops shoulder back and tricep muscles. work hard and keep up the good work. keep committed and especially with butterfly know the difference between discomfort and pain, because that will change how you do and how much you can do of fly|||if 100s are tiring for you, start with 25s. after those seem super easy go to 50s. when you are comfortable to go 75s and etc. crunches and push ups can help but dont go crazy because your muscles will hurt. even though you are swimming butterfly, do some freestyle because butterfly is really tiring. (i would know. my coach makes me swim 500 butterflys almost every monday :( ) so keep practicing and u will get better. i did this and it helped because even though my best event is butterfly, in practice i can barely swim a 50 fly without feeling tired but in a meet i somehow have more endurence. so in your meet u will probably have more endurence with swimming|||Okay im a butterfly swimmer for a really tough coach.





we first began with a set of really fast 25s with fins (kicking underwater as far as possible





then we did sets of butterfly kicks with kickboards and fins but these were 200s alternating on your stomach and on your back. about 10 of them - these are a lot of fun!!!





then we did sets of 50 sprints butterfly with fins.


these were on about 50 seconds b/c we diddnt use fins





then we did 4 200 flys with fins


this helped me out alot|||When I was in high school, our coach would make us do like 4 sets of 25 push-ups and sit-ups before practice just to like warm up, he didn't want us to get all tired before getting in. That will strengthen your core. I swam the 100 yd fly every single meet and it was a b*$%h to swim. My suggestion is to build up endurance by doing drills: a one arm fly, kicking, etc. Reverse IM sets and pyramid sets (where you start out slow and then ascend in speed) are good too. My coach told me that in a 100 fly race you have to make sure your butt comes up (should be able to see it above the water) as your arms come down and pull, that will naturally give you more of a flow. This is what I used to do, I would go like at 70% of my max. speed for the first 25 yds, then I would increase that, if you start out by sprinting 100% suring the first 25, you'll be dead during the last one. Well, you don't have to kick 9 times, that depends on the swimmer and how powerful your kick because if your kick is pretty good you should keep it longer underwater, if not only take it as fas as you think your streamline aloows you to. What is your breathing pattern? that may be causing the extreme fatigue also. It's up to you, but in my case I founf that breathing every other stroke was best for me so I could keep my speed and stamina, some people take two, some breathe every stroke.

What is the opposite of the butterfly effect theory?

Since it's only a theory, something must be contradicting it. What is it?





Or





If you don't believe in the butterfly effect theory, what do you believe?|||The butterfly effect isn't necessarily a theory, so much as an observation of the behavior of complex systems. The butterfly effect is just something that people use to describe the fact that for many non-linear systems, a slight change in initial conditions can lead to dramatically altered results. The larger field encompassing this sort of thought would be chaos theory.





If you wanted to pick an opposite to chaos theory it would probably be determinism, which is of the notion that with sufficient knowledge future events can be precisely predicted.|||The "butterfly effect" is not a theory. It's simply a popular phrase that describes sensitive dependence on initial conditions in chaos theory, which is a field of mathematics.





In other words, it's a tiny part of a much larger mathematical theory that describes the behavior of certain dynamical systems.

I am making a model of the butterfly for school. How many legs does it have and where are they on the body and what do they looks like.??|||There are two pictures at the link below. One is blue and black, and the other orange and brown. The orange and brown one has a good picture of where the legs are.

How to tell difference in Gender: Butterfly Koi?

How do you tell the difference between a male and female butterfly koi? My friend wants to know.|||Before they are at least 8"-10" long+ (around 2-3 years of age), it is VERY difficult to tell any difference just by looking at them. When they are bigger, it gets easier, because the females take on a more rounded, football-ish shape, and the males are much sleeker, built more like a torpedo.





Also, there is that raspiness or bumpy feeling on the insides of the males' gillplates, which females do not have. And, in males that are at least partially white/white on the head, the white will take on a slightly yellowish cast while females of that same color pattern will have more of a pure white. Many females (of any color) will also often have a "hump" on their neck/shoulder area, just behind the head - the fish with humps, in my experience, tend to grow faster and bigger than those with no humps.





By observing all of these characteristics and weighing them against one another, you can usually make an "educated guess" about the gender and be correct most of the time. However, the only sure-fire way to tell the difference between male and female koi (of any type - not just butterfly) is to observe them closely during spawning. The one being chased is the girl, and the chasers are the boys. The girl will often race around and nose up into the stems of plants, etc., then suddenly turn and flip her tale, seemingly almost out of the water. This is how she releases her eggs. The boys, who have been nudging and bumping her all along, will then immediately immitate her behavior, releasing sperm to fertilize the eggs the female released a split second before.





Hope this helps - good luck!|||It is difficult to tell the sex on younger Koi, it gets easier as they get older.


Females tend to have rounder bodies and rounder pectoral fins and their fins tend to be somewhat smaller.


Males are sleeker, with more pointed pectoral fins, and their fins tend to be larger.


Others claim the colors of males are more brilliant.


Older males have a sand paper like raspiness on the gill plates, and some claim you can also feel a roughness if you lick your tongue across the front of the pectoral fin.


The easiest way is when there is a particularly aggressive male chasing the females, with the proverbial nose up the butt, you look for other males chasing the same now identified females.





If your koi is old enough, generally looking down from the top you can tell the males from the females|||I just brought one home today. I have a feeling it's a she because she has a few admirers in our pond already...only way I know how to tell.

What do you think of the butterfly effect?

If you are not familiar with it, it says that every thing you do will ripple through the world causing greater things to happen as it goes.





The example normally used is that a butterfly flapping it's wings causes the tiniest puffs of air that builds and joins other puffs of air until way later it could be causing a tsunami some time and place way later.





Do you agree with this idea? I'd have to say I do.|||It is not UNtrue, but it is not metaphysically important to consider because the ultimate cause, the "butterfly", can never be found or proved, so we might as well just accept that all things are caused.





The butterfly effect is the combination of two schools of thought: determinism, and chaos theory. The determinists deny free will, and the butterfly effect is supposed to make us believe that all our actions are determined by causes we cannot know about. Therefore it "leads to an ethics of compassion and understanding, both toward ourselves and others. We see that there but for circumstances go I." http://www.centerfornaturalism.org/descr鈥?/a>





This is the opposite of "rugged individualism", free will, and the belief that our actions do morally matter.|||I think we have no free will. It's all based on determinism. So therefore anything that happens can't happen anyother way. But thinkgs as small as a butterfly flapping it's wings does take part in everything else around it.|||I think moths are


equally to blame.


They do it in the night.


Results are still the same.|||I believe it to an extent, just because, I don't that 1 tiny little flap of air could create a tornado. But I do think that it effects the world in smaller ways. Such as, it could create a gust of wind, or if you gave someone a job that they were not qualified for, then they became a CEO.|||yes i do believe in it. your decisions affect people around the world daily. everything we do can have an affect on so many people we dont even realize it. just think about all the people you affect when you buy something, you affect the guy who dug the raw materials out of the ground, the guy that sold the raw materials, the guy that turned the raw materials into a good, the guy who took the goods and sold them to you. then the money you used will circulate for a long time traveling all over. lets say you had a coke. the can will be thrown away, picked up by someone, then someone will put it in a land fill, then eventually it will decompose, ect.... the coke you drank you will piss out, it will go through water treatment, sewers, then maybe find its way back into nature where it will evaporate and become a cloud then fall back to the earth as rain in asia. they are endless cycles, all caused by you buying a coke.|||If everything just reacted the butterfly effect could be true. Intelligence makes it untrue. When you feel a puff of air how do you react is it the same all the time. Most people can react differently to the same stimulus due to them thinking or feeling differently at the time and may not react at all. This is true of all Intelligent species making to many ends or changes to the effect for it to be real.|||More specifically, it is the idea that minor variances in the initial conditions of a system can create significant differences in the conditions of the outcome.





Those wing beats could just as likely cancel out a hurricane as cause one. Otherwise we'd be having planet-wide life-threatening storms every 20 minutes. It is dramatic to go from butterfly wings to major storm systems, but it should be made clear that the effect does not predict inevitable disasters and dangers. Just significantly different outcomes, many of which may well be neutral or even beneficial.





In some systems, it does seem pretty apparent, but in most, I think the natural state of the objects tamper any such large-scale changes--especially in systems with outside influences. No matter how many fish you have swimming in the sea for how long, the moon will still control the shape, speed, and direction of the tides, for example. No matter how many magnets you pile on your kitchen table, you will not create any lasting effect on the magnetic sphere of the earth itself. And no matter how many butterflies flap their wings, the differential heating of the atmosphere caused by external solar and internal geothermic heating will control the basic wind patterns.





However, in certain dynamic computer or technological systems, one small effect can cause catastrophic, cascading system failures. Likewise, in living systems, one small effect can cause body failure or even disease epidemics. One small discovery in intellectual pursuits could result in wide-spread changes in thinking and directly result in knowledge and advances far greater than the initial discovery itself--for example, someone put two pieces of curved glass in a tube and invented the microscope...in itself and its time more of a curiosity than anything else. But because of that small little advance, entire fields of medicine, chemistry, biology, and forensics opened up. Maybe not the whole of modern medicine, but a significant part of it is a direct result of that one little invention, something the inventor never dreamed of or meant at the time.|||Yes. Everything effects everything else, at least in a subtle way. On the scale of the universe, perhaps imperceptible, but it is the sum total of every event that has created the past, present, and future.

Where do you cut a Rainbow Butterfly Bush after the flowers have died?

I have a Rainbow Butterfly Bush and the flowers are almost gone. Do I have to cut the old bloom off so a new one can grow, or does it just fall off? Also, where do I cut it and does it have to be at an angle or anything special. I am also growing my own Millet Spray for my Parakeets and I want to know when I cut the millet off and how does it dry out? Thank you so much.|||If this is the Buddleia variety, then you cut the flowers at the base of the flower, which will conserve energy to allow new flowers to sprout and grow. Otherwise the energy is used for seed production, and these plants will gladly produce seeds very prolifically.





Their general pruning is best done in early spring, as they can grow more than the height of a person in one season. Their flowering period is often quite short, partly due to their nature of wanting, and being able, to produce so many seeds.





For your millet, ensure that the lower half of the panacle isn't green, which would be too early, and would lessen your crop load. The top half, at minimum, needs to have matured, where the seeds will be filled out, and more golden in colour.





There are several types of millet, but generally the above rules are fairly straight forward. You can dry it by hanging it upright, but beware that some of your crop's seeds may fall, so have a method to catch them. Keep it in a dry environment indoors, and where rodents etc can't get to it.





Hope this helps. Good luck! Rob

I Want to Be a Social Butterfly - How to have fun at small social gatherings?

This is weird for me but every time I go out to a club or attend social events I feel so uncomfortable when interacting with strangers. I have diagnosed myself as having social anxiety! I am outgoing with my close friends but whenever I try to interact with strangers i get so, so nervous. I WANT TO BE A SOCIAL BUTTERFLY!!





Any tips on working through this issue?|||Yes. I was like that once. I followed this method and quickly discovered I had excellent social skills.





One. Never get attached to one person or party.


Two. Enter a room look around. If you see someone standing alone approach them. As you do find something about them that truly interests you. Introduce yourself and WAIT for them to open towards you. Then bring up that point about THEM and comment on its interest. Let them take it from there. LISTEN.





If at any time someone else starts to listen you open the angle of your body to allow their entry. Then when the first person has finished speaking indicate your interest on the next persons contribution. Do this as many times as it occurs naturally.





A group will form. Look for an outsider and leave the group and approach the person who is outside. Start it up again.





You will get people talking about themselves and to each other. You become a facilitator and lose your fear of self scrutiny.








Be safe. Travel with a friend.|||agreeeed, DONT FART!!!! i think you should just act crazzzy and stuff cuz then people will definitely have to talk to you.....but then again, they could ignore you.....


....its your choice honey...........|||just smile and talk to people.

Also, I'd like to have my butterfly tattoo to be the colors of black and blue.|||Depends on who does it, really.

As a general statement, if you "get a good deal" on the price, you may regret the quality later.

Information on Barbados





Barbados is a coral island, pushed out of sea by volcanic activity in a far away time. On the West Coast of Barbados, coral shore beaches of fine white sand stretch along a blue-green sea. Coral reefs fringe the Barbados shoreline to provide excellent snorkeling and Scuba Diving. Along the East Coast a lively surf is blown briskly by the strong and constant trade winds and the waves pound against a rocky shore. The constant breeze of the trade winds gives Barbados a mild and pleasant tropical climate.





When you visit Barbados, you will see it is mostly a flat coral island with excellent beaches, but there are rolling hills and many deep ridges and gullies, with an interesting distribution of flora and fauna. Within the Barbados coral core there is a vast array of caves and underground lakes which provide an excellent supply of drinking water that is amongst the purest in the world. Geologically Barbados is unique, being actually two land masses that merged together over the years. This and other anomalies make this Caribbean Island quite phenomenal, and there are geological structures that you will find only in Barbados.

You should also take a trip to a popular fishing village (Oistins) on a Friday night where you can get some grill fish, grill potatoes and tartar sauce. Afterward, you can go and see the locals and visitors dancing in the open air to some vintage oldies. This is a sight to behold. There is also craft sold at this location.
