meeting on September 9, 1988 the Council had raised questions regarding proposed
staff additions and that additional information would be presented in response.
Chief Ted Paulfranz said that the parttime clerk for the Fire Department would be
handling the EMS billings. He explained how this additional help would improve
the collection process, noting that no benefits would be paid for this parttime
clerk.
Rosland explained that the proposed figure of $28,800 for Council payroll includes
an additional $100/month for Council Members and $150/month for the Mayor as
agreed previously.
Education was to include sending an elected official to the National League of
Cities Conference. Administration - Regarding Dues & Subscriptions, it was
pointed out that the LMC dues will increase by 6%, with the dues for AMM and MLC
increasing by 4%. Planninq - Member Kelly asked if there is adequate staffing in

was improving and that LOGIS is now doing long range planning in an effort to
better their performance. As to the increase for data processing services,
Finance Director Wallin said this was due to LOGIS's changing their billing
system.
considering the low voter turnout but that there was very positive reaction to the
new voting system.
services could be reduced by $4,000.
why the prosecuting services show a decrease.
response to the Council's concerns regarding legal fees, the prosecutor's office
has been asked to review their fee structure and that staff felt the $125,000
budgeted for 1989 will be adequate based on past history. Street Maintenance -
Member Richards asked if the City is keeping up with maintenance of the City's
streets on an orderly basis. Engineer Hoffman explained that the City is on a
plan of 10 years for seal coating and that staff is working on a pavement analysis
of all streets over the next two years as to costs and effectiveness of doing
different types of maintenance. Sidewalks - Ramps - Parking Lots - The issue of
assessment of maintenance costs for the ramps at 50th/France was mentioned.
was pointed out that the annual assessment to the 50th/France commercial area for
cleaning and minor repairs would be on the Council Agenda of October 3, 1988 and
that it may be the appropriate time to bring up the issue.
Member Richards asked what the proposed $28,000 Uniform Allowance covered.
Swanson said that uniforms and equipment is purchased from this allowance for both
the officers and the CSOs. In 1989 the Department is looking at the start of
conversion to a different form of semi-automatic firearm. Park &

other vacant buildings are also being considered.

Community Center that an amount of approximately $50,000 would be the best
estimate for rental of space. Member Richards said that, hopefully, the research
committee could bring back a proposal by the October 3rd meeting.
Recreation General - Member Kelly asked if the Park & Recreation Budget reflects
any of the recommendations made by the Park & Recreation Task Force.
Kojetin explained that the Task Force's findings have been addressed by the
request for the park janitor and an increase for personal services under Litter
Removal. As to upgrading of playground equipment, he said that is reflected in
the budget. Bob Christianson, Chair of the Edina Park Board, said that, with
respect to the proposed fee and charges for the Park & Recreation Department, the
Board was reticent to adopt the fees recommended by staff in two areas.
the Board proposed that the Arena season tickets for resident family be increased
to $55.00 instead of $60.00 and that the resident individual be increased to
$35.00 instead of $40.00. Second, that the Pool season tickets for resident
family be increased to $46.00 instead of $48.00 and that the resident individual
be increased to $30.00 instead of $31.00.

With a few matches to go it looked like Newmarket could have been on for a clean sweep of all the league and cup competitions in the Newmarket Badminton Federation, but in the end they had to share the honours with Linton and Newmarket-based rivals St. Phillips. The tables show the final league positions.
Newmarket's Ladies A, as usual, dominated the First Division although they are slipping – last year they only dropped one game but this year they dropped two (out of 48) – one against second placed Haverhill and the other game being the only crumb of comfort for St. Phillips who finished in relegation place for the first time in recent memory. Newmarket's strength in depth was evident with their B side making a Haverhill Sandwich.
Newmarket's Mixed A also retained their League title losing just one match, finding St. Phillips A a tougher proposition this year. Although the Saints lost to Ely Victoria at the end of the season, they pipped them on games difference to finish second, their highest mixed league position for some years.
Then it started going wrong - although Newmarket's Men's A made a much better showing this year in a very competitive First Division, they could not overcome last year's runners-up St. Phillips A who beat their weaker side and drew against Newmarket's full might in an end of season show-down. Had Newmarket not been hit by injury and been able to field their top squad more often then the league may have been tighter, but they had to settle for runners-up, just ahead of Burwell who, in their first season in the first division, impressed as the only side to beat the Saints.
Although Newmarket, who usually have to play off stiff handicaps, did well to make the final of the Rushworth knockout tournament, they could not overcome a resurgent Linton on the night. This rounded of a memorable season for Linton – their Ladies topped the Second Division and their Mixed side, only just promoted into the Mixed Second Division, just missed further promotion to the First on games difference, behind Haverhill. Newmarket B, relegated from the First Division last year, continue to slide, finishing a sad bottom place in the Second.
Season's formalities were Borders Men remaining unbeaten as they cast all aside to return to the First Division and St. Phillips Mixed B doing likewise except for one unplayed match being conceded. Soham A had a good season, behind the Saints in second place.

Whether you're moving, buying a couple large appliances or buying a number of supplies for a major home renovation project, it can be advantageous to rent a truck. Doing so can be a cost-effective way to get your items from Point A to Point B in a timely manner. If you're used to driving a standard-sized vehicle, it's important to take a little time to get acquainted with your rental truck. The representative at the rental company can go over the vehicle-specific details with you, but it's also valuable to keep a handful of universal tips in mind, including these three.
Follow Other Vehicles At A Greater Distance
Whenever you're behind the wheel of a truck, you need to remember to increase your following distance. Not only is the truck heavier than your vehicle and thus needs more space to come to a stop, but as you fill the back of the truck, it will cause the vehicle to take even longer to stop. The more room between you and the driver ahead of you, the better. The standard rule for following safely for regular vehicles is to leave a minimum of three seconds between you and the other driver. For trucks, you'll need to ensure that this interval is even greater, especially if the truck is full.
Ensure That Your Side Mirrors Are Adjusted Properly
Even if you're in a rush, don't just climb into your rental truck and start driving. It's important to first position your side mirrors to provide you with a high degree of visibility. When you're driving a car, you can get out of the habit of checking your side mirrors because you're able to see your blind spots by turning your head. Doing so is more difficult in a truck because of the box, so it's imperative that your side mirrors are angled correctly. Rental trucks typically have two-part mirrors on each side; the upper portion will provide you with a view of what's behind you and the lower one is positioned to help you see beside you.
Look For Opportunities To "Drive Through"
With a little practice, you can become familiar with backing up the rental truck. However, it's always ideal to look for opportunities in which you can drive through a certain area to avoid backing into it. For example, if you're concerned about backing into a driveway, consider simply parking on the street and unloading there. If you're in a shopping area, look for a parking spot you can drive through so that you won't have to back up.

Evernote client devouring battery
richard-j-c posted a topic in Evernote for MacJust in the past few days Evernote seems to be consuming huge amounts of power on my macbook. Activity Monitor shows an average impact of 60. Any suggestions on what might be the cause, or how to troubleshoot? Latest Evernote client 7.10 on Mojave 10.14.4
Different Colors for Highlighter
richard-j-c replied to chunkit721's question in General Feature Requests+1 I've been using Evernote since 2007 and am very happy with the product except the lack of multiple highlighting colours. Please! I regularly try out other note-taking products for two reasons: Evernote's pricing and the lack of multiple highlight colours. Evertool is potentially great but just too clunky as an external application.

richard-j-c replied to richard-j-c's topic in Evernote for Android"feature-not-a-bug" right.. Thanks for the tip!
android Losing formatting with Android syncs
richard-j-c posted a topic in Evernote for AndroidRecently (this is only a new problem), when making edits in the Android client, I lose all formatting in the edited note (I've only discovered this later when revisiting the note on my synced Windows client). THis is terribly frustrating requiring me to go back to prior versions, import, then find the edited content. Thus, for present, I am using the Android client only for viewing. Anyone else having this problem? I am using updated versions (not Beta) for both clients. Richard.
(Archived) Problem: Spelling check change forcing new line
richard-j-c replied to richard-j-c's topic in Windows ArchiveSorry, I am using Windows desktop version 188.8.131.527 on a Win7 PC. Have tried uninstalling, reinstalling and downloading (syncing) with server to no avail.
Sometimes when doing a spellcheck (F7) and correcting a mispelled word, what follows the newly corrected word is forced to a new line (as if "Enter" were pressed). I think this may only happen when the content is indented (but only sometimes). Very annoying!

Romania may not be on everybody's lips as a long weekend destination but it?definitely has its attractions.?Flights?to the capital, Bucharest, start with Ryan Air for example,? as low as ?30 return – there's mid day departures?too -?and the airport in?Bucharest is a short ride from the?capital (?5 by bus).
A perfect '5 day weekend' would be to?spend one or two nights in?the old part of?Bucharest, gastronomically it's?wonderful, then take a train?to Brasov?near Bran; the beginnings of Transylvania, and visit Dracula's Castle amongst more restaurants and?shopping.?Back on the train, and Sinaia?could be your next stop (just an hour from Bucharest)?a pretty ski resort.?Then return to Bucharest for one final night.
Hotels are cheap; from around ?30 a night for a good one,?an?hour?on a train will cost?you ?1.50 and meals in nice restaurants start at ?2.?At ?1.50 a glass, the wine?is worth sampling too.??Maybe?this is one place we could?add to the Angel Holidays agenda one day. The people, are wonderfully polite and helpful too.

In November this year we?re planning a three week exploratory trip to the desert state of Rajasthan, India. This will be used to develop a fixed Angel Holidays tour for the future. We'll visit some unusual locations, some used for documentary making, and have experiences beyond that of ordinary tourism. If you like adventure and are a flexible traveller you may want to join this trip.
Unlike a usual tour, the specific itinerary will not be available until shortly?before departure. However, starting in Delhi our route will take us past the ancient traders' town of Mandawa, colourful Birkener on the edge of the desert, the evocative citadel?of Jaisalmer on the far west of the Thar desert, the ?blue city? of Jodpur, the?romantic lake city of Udaipur and Agra home of the Taj Mahal. This itinerary is flexible and we may add some other locations on the way.
Without a specific itinerary or duration?for each stay, this may be better suited to previous Angel Holidays? travellers who know what to expect from our less superficial way of travel. Others are welcome too if they have an adventurous spirit. In some locations we?ll enlist the help of local guides, in others you?ll be given free time to relax and explore.
There will be varied accommodation; from rudimentary (but clean) guest houses to old palaces, comfortable hotels and a nights? camping in the desert. Expect a few surprises too that you usually see with the 'Angel travel experience.'
The trip cost will be competitive; around ?1,490 for three weeks which includes all accommodation and transport. Return flights to Delhi are not included but start at around ?390 – which we help you find. This is a wonderful opportunity for a comprehensive, authentic experience of the region, at a competitive price.
Needless to say, you need to be a flexible and positive traveller. All you need is to book your return flights to Delhi and we?ll pick you up from the airport and do the rest.
If you would like to join our mail list for further information, please email us on the ?How to book? page of this website. This promises to be a really fabulous experience. We look forward to hearing from you.

After savouring the delights of the jungle, we have now moved on, via the?old Tibetan trading post of Bandipur and to Pokhara – up in the Annapurna region of the Himalaya. Those willing from our group went on a half day trek today into the lower Himalaya. Tomorrow, on our holiday to Nepal, an adventurous few from our group will be paragliding on the warm thermals over the Himalaya – whilst others will be shopping, dinning, enjoying spas or meditating. The weather is pleasantly warm here in Pokhara!

An old man sits in one of?Kathmandu's ancient squares trying to sell Nepalese flags. Yet no one is coming.
Behind him, among the crowds of colourfully dressed people; the rickshaw drivers, traders bent heavy carrying loads, monks and religious devotees, incense and bells; a set of steps lead upwards to what is known, rather crudely, as the ?Hippy temple.? This, in the 1960?s, marked the end of the Hippy Trail and on the temple?s upper reaches, flaxen haired foreigners would have sat smoking ganja. Yet today the steps lead?to nothing. A earthquake lasting just seventy three seconds took it away.? The steps look upwards?to Kathmandu?s clear blue sky.
However, the overwhelming number of temples, not just here but across Nepal, still remain. This beautiful palace square, like others in the neighbouring UNESCO city of Patan for example, have remained largely intact. Walking through, is still the same as ever; an experience as if stepping back in time. The ancient pagoda?architecture, in this?country cut off from the rest of the world until the late 1950?s, remains. Coming here now, without many tourists, you can be forgiven for feeling like a Victorian explorer ? perhaps there has never been a better time to visit.
There has been devastation in areas. The earthquake?s epicentre was 80kms from Kathmandu. Villages have seen awful damage as well as the city of Bhaktapur. The earthquake has struck four out of Nepal's fourteen districts, but the world?s press has been less discriminate. Its generalistic approach suggesting earthquake has conquered all of Nepal has caused even more damage to its tourist industry. Traveller areas such as the jungle in Chitwan, Lumbini the birthplace of the Bhudda and the lakeside town Pokhara have seen no damage at all.?A majority of ancient monuments are intact, roads are clear; hotels, restaurants open, but few travellers?are coming.
Most traveller services in the country such as hotels, transport,?restaurants and excursions?are run by small family businesses, not multinational chains. For them, hardly damaged by the?earthquake, the generalistic approach of the world?s press could not have been more devastating. And today the press shows little interest in Nepal. We contacted the travel editors of the Guardian and Telegraph for example, but neither expressed interest.
The truth is that visitors who come here now will have a unique experience.
In some areas they'll see evidence of earthquake damage, not on a television screen but?for themselves;?something?few?witness in a?lifetime. This is a very friendly?country too,?whose citizens still address each other as ?brother or sister.?? In?the aftermath of the earthquake not one single?shop?was looted, this tells you something about the decency of the people of Nepal. Pioneering travellers?coming today?can expect a terrific welcome.
Yet for now the old man still sits in Kathmandu square trying to sell his flags. The sun shines, the ancient architecture stands majestic around him. Yet few visitors are coming.
Angel Holidays will be taking?a group to Nepal?this October to give them?this unique experience of Nepal. By visiting you will also be helping Nepal's tourist industry. If you might like to join the adventure; visiting?ancient cities, the jungle, the birthplace of the Buddha and staying Pokhara in full view of the Himalaya, please contact us.?To crown the trip, you'll also have the chance to fly around Everest.
A special thanks
Angel Holidays would like to thank previous ?Angel travellers? who have given generously in time and money to help the people of Nepal. There?s been events such as marathons and garden parties to raise money, as well as generous donations. Your help has been delivered directly to those in need. We?d also like to thank the selfless work of Pabitra, our first organiser with Angel Holidays, who?s delivered blankets, medicine and shelters to remote villages from donations from Angel Travellers.
Thank you for your affection to Angel Holidays and to Nepal. ?For those booked on our October trip this year, and?for those thinking of coming,?a very warm welcome awaits. Angel Holidays.

We're excited to announce that Angel Holidays will be operating its first tour to Bangkok, Laos & Cambodia on 14th November this year (2015). We'll be experiencing exciting cities, jungle river trips to some remote corners of the world, as well as the exotic – it'll also be a lot of fun. ?As with all our Angel tours there'll be free time to explore too. If you'd like to know more, already the trip is half subscribed, please contact us with your email address and we can send full information. Note too, our second exciting tour to Peru will take place in August 2016 and we're developing a new trip into India's Rajasthan (a desert state) for 2016; hopefully we might see you on one of our future adventures!

In a few days Nepal will come alive with a celebration of Holi – known as the festival of colour: this celebrates the coming of Spring. Here is a picture of what it's like, where a Sadhu (a holy man) participates – even the Sadhus in Nepal are a very friendly bunch – and like to laugh. Hindu calenders are Luna and Holi will coincide with the full moon. ?Coloured powders made from turmeric to tie dye – purples, yellows, oranges, blues and so on, are thrown over everything and everyone. Driving your motorbike through Kathmandu is a game where you ride as quickly and as irrationally as possible to avoid children throwing colour over you. They've got clever this year and set up road blocks where they wait excitedly around corners. ?Such are the delights of a holiday in Nepal.

No matter who you are friendly with, we'd like to wish you a very happy Valentines day from Nepal. We'd like to announce our new tours too. Firstly there's the combined Bangkok/Laos & Cambodia adventure – the first one planned for November this year, as well as our second tour to Peru in August 2016. An inaugural trip to the desert state of Rajasthan?is planned in 2016 too. So please let us know if you might be interested in any of these. ?For those booked on our holiday to Nepal this October, get ready for a wonderful and very colourful trip! If you're thinking of coming, why not take the plunge and follow in the footsteps of many of our enthralled previous travellers! Our holiday to Nepal is one of the most unique holidays you'll experience.

As many who?ve traveled with us to Nepal will know, on our tour we visit the birthplace of the Buddha, and in this?spiritual couple of days; we explore how to create more happiness in our lives ? regardless of any religion. We?ll be led by our lovely Buddhist monk on this part of the holiday which is fascinating.
The ?four noble truths? of Buddhism suggests that our attachment to desires can lead to unhappiness, but as you?ll probably find out, this doesn?t mean that you can?t enjoy desires ? even the simpler ones like desiring a cup of tea and then drinking it ? the key word is ?attachment?. ?If you?re attached to a desire this means that if you don?t satisfy it you?ll be unhappy. ?Perplexingly, it maybe useful to have many desires that you?re unattached to?and if you accomplish a small number of ?these, rejoice in them, the others: just let them go.
Also by attaching ourselves to a desire we hope to fulfill in the future, we can lead ourselves into a situation where we?re unhappy in the ?here & now? until we achieve this desire sometime in the future. ?It?s important to live in the ?now? take happiness from it and the meditative practice of ?mindfulness? is something that can help (you can ask about this on this part of the Nepal tour).
Perhaps too we need to create simpler desires in the first place that can be more easily attained and surpassed. We often see Asian people with less than ourselves who appear happy; Nepal has an abundance of these. Enjoying the many things we do have, rather than the things we don?t, also helps. ?Here?s a picture of our group on our previous holiday to Nepal. As you can see, ?a very happy bunch, whatever religion!

May is the Month of Focus for LHS Track
KSCB News - April 1, 2016 1:25 pm
If you have heard any of coach Tyson McGuire's interviews about his cross country program, this will come as no shock. McGuire's cross country teams use heart monitors to pace themselves to be at their optimal level when the calender turns to late October and early November. Now McGuire steps in as Liberal's track and field coach with the same sentiment. Make or break in May.
Liberal opens their track and field season celebrating their tradition. The team will wear t-shirts marking all of their WAC titles which includes 2015 for the boys. Caleb Cline stepped down as head coach but is still in the program coaching JV throwers. McGuire, who had coached long distance runners in track, is the head coach.
LHS has great interest in track among their underclassmen. LHS has 19 seniors, 28 juniors, 39 sophomores, and 46 freshman boys and girls out for track. The boys have only two state competitors in 400 regional champ Dusty Torres and mid and long distance runner Greg McClurg. Payton Emery in the throws and basketball standouts Kylen Thomas and Markaylen Eatmon may burst onto the scene in the jumps.
The girls are strong especially in long distance and the throwing events. Cam Slatten, Kelsey Ramsey, Chloe Alling, Saw Ahmara, and Yanelly Jurado return to track after running cross country in the fall. Megan Larkin, Rashida Davis, and Stephanie Garcia bring back experience and success in the throws.
LHS has many of the same coaches. Here is a breakdown of LHS coaches:
Shot Put- Mike Cline
Discus- Caitlin Bauer
Javelin- Janel Durler
Jumps- Kerri Miles
Pole Vault- Rob Wilson
Hurdles- Russ McFall
Sprints- Trace Haskell
Distance- Tyson McGuire
LHS opens the season at Winfield Friday night and will host their meet Friday, Arpil 8.

I just completed an evaluation of nine marketing automation platforms for a client.
Having been involved in marketing automation for the past five years, it's very interesting to see the evolution in the industry and the solutions.
You need to understand your business and marketing objectives to help determine which marketing automation platform is best for your business.
A company committed to increasing traffic, leads and sales via inbound marketing will need a very different platform than a sales-driven firm who wants to score leads and get them to sales reps for immediate pursuit.
Marketing automation is a subset of customer relationship management (CRM) that focuses on scheduling, segmentation and tracking of marketing campaigns.
It's important that your marketing automation platform is tightly integrated with your CRM since there will be an ongoing exchange of invaluable information between your CRM and your marketing automation platform.
The use of marketing automation makes processes that would otherwise have been perfromed manually much more efficient and makes new processes possible.
Ultimately, marketing automation enables marketers to align their marketing process with the customer's buying process by providing relevant information of value to the customer when and where they want it.
Marketing automation reduces repetitive tasks assosciated with the marketing process (e.g., automated thank you emails, confirmations and drip marketing campaigns).
There are two key tasks the software handles: customer segmentation and campaign management. This enhances relationship building, enables the customization of content, smarter engagement and provides predictive analytics.
Marketers use explicit data such as sex, age, geography, and product/service needs to divide and classify customers and segment them so they can deliver relevant, information of value.
Relevance improves trust and responsiveness.
Marketing automation software has become the best solution for developing and delivering relevant email marketing and sales campaigns that drive revenue.
A typical closed-loop marketing campaign powered by automation will include:
- Building targeted lists
- Creating information of value
- Executing marketing campaigns
- Measuring email and website behavior and activity
- Segmentation based on activity and lead scores.
- Entering qualified leads into the CRM
- Nurturing Marketing Qualified Leads (MQLs) until they become Sales Qualified Leads (SQLs)
- Analyzing marketing and sales performance and refining the process
The benefits of marketing automation are significant as determined by Aberdeen Group:
- Improves lead conversion by 107%
- 40% greater average deal size
- 20% higher team attainment of quota
- 17% better forecast accuracy
There are additional benefits which will improve the productivity, efficiency and effectiveness of your marketing efforts:
- You will know more about your prospects and customers enabling you to deliver more relevant information in a more timely way.
- You'll be able to know who is downloading information of value from your site and how they are interacting with your site.
- You will be able to see how a visitor that clicked on a link in an email or newsletter progressed through you site to buy something completely different than what your communication was discussing, thereby providing greater insight into the buyer's journey.
- You will have the opportunity to more fully engage customers and prospects by asking them about their experience and then using their feedback to improve their future experience.
- Create buyer personas -- think about who you are talking to as people rather than demographics. Look at everything you do and communicate from the perspective of the customer or prospect. Consult internal stakeholders. Review CRM, survey, web and social media data. Interview real buyers.
- Map the buyer's journey -- know how customers come to find and buy your product or service. Talk to your customers to verify that you know their buying journey -- don't assume you already know it.
- Map, and track lead flow -- know how many leads you need to convert to a marketing qualified lead, to a sales qualified lead, to a closed sale to achieve your goals.
- Create a process map/workflow of your marketing process. This needs to align with the buyer's journey and consider serving the customer after the sale as well.
- Inform rather than sell -- educate, provide information of value, answer questions before they are asked, simplify lives. As Guy Kawasaki says, "The internet rewards those who share information and penalizes those who hoard it."

Don't be alarmed when you hear sirens going off on the TV or radio Wednesday afternoon -- it's just a test.
FEMA, in coordination with the Federal Communications Commission, will conduct a nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System (EAS) today.
The nationwide test will be sent to radio and television stations beginning at 2:20 p.m.
The EAS test message will be:
"THIS IS A TEST of the National Emergency Alert System. This system was developed by broadcast and cable operators in voluntary cooperation with the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the Federal Communication Commission, and local authorities to keep you informed in the event of an emergency. If this had been an actual emergency an official message would have followed the tone alert, you heard at the start of this message. No action is required."
Again, this is only a test and is not a real event.
This year's test will evaluate the readiness of the national alerting capability in the absence of internet connectivity. The test will be approximately one minute long, have a limited impact on the public with only minor interruption of radio and television programs, and will be similar to regular monthly EAS tests. Both the audio message and text crawl should be accessible to people with disabilities.
The test will not include a message on cell phones via Wireless Emergency Alerts.

Many of us in the United States will gather with friends and family this weekend to celebrate and give thanks. There is much good in doing that.
But I also wonder…
What about those who do not have friends and family to celebrate with? They might be estranged for a number of reasons…
What about those who cannot be home because they are working…as first responders… as military personnel who are trying to keep people and countries safe…as medical (and other) personnel who are working to bring healing to people in hospitals…?
What about those who are mourning the death of a loved one?
Or those who wonder where their next meal will come from?
What about those who still suffer from the effects of the racism and colonization that underlaid the first "Thanksgiving" celebration on this continent? This is not a weekend of celebration for many of them.
We do need to find times and ways to give thanks…to count blessings…to rejoice in friends and family (whether that is family of origin or family of choice).
But we also need to be sensitive to those for whom this weekend is a difficult time.
So while I will give thanks this weekend, I will also acknowledge that there is much work to do to bring reconciliation and healing so that all may find a way and time to give thanks.

Congressman praises UC research and extension
United States Congressman Jim Costa visited the UC West Side Research and Extension Center in Five Points last week to introduce his new legislative director, Nick Choate, to west side farming practices. A focus of the visit was conservation tillage, a farming system in which growers minimize tractor work and plant crops in the residue of a previous crop.
UC research has shown that CT practices have numerous benefits, including water conservation, dust suppression, reduced runoff, lower labor needs and costs, fuel savings and carbon sequestration. Members of the Conservation Tillage and Cropping Systems workgroup asked Costa for federal funding to study the adoption process and fund CT extension activities.
Costa is a member of the House Committee on Agriculture, which is laying the groundwork for the reauthorization of the Farm Bill in 2012.
He shared the following comments about the value of UC Agriculture and Natural Resources programs:
Conservation tillage hits the airwaves
A series of conservation tillage workshops last month and a follow-up news release by UC Davis cropping systems specialist Jeff Mitchell resulted in a story about the event on a Fresno morning ag show on KMJ 580 am radio. The radio story is archived online, about midway through the hour-long broadcast.
Mitchell conducted a phone interview with host Sean Michael Lisle in which he
said national experts on no-till and strip-till came to California to encourage the state's farmers to try conservation tillage, which can conserve water, suppress dust, reduce runoff, lower labor costs, save fuel and sequester carbon.
"There is a growing interest now in these kinds of systems that potentially can reduce production costs and can have a number of adjunct benefits associated with them, and that would be quite new for California," Mitchell said on the program. "Currently in California, very little of the annual crops, row crops, field crops are grown with these kinds of practices."
Mitchell said the dairy industry has been particularly receptive to the idea.
"Our workgroup has documented some rather significant changes in tillage practices in the last 6 years," Mitchell said. "The adoption of these kinds of practices has actually gone up to about 20 percent of the acreage from about 2 percent in that time period."
More information on conservation tillage is available on the workgroup's Conservation Tillage and Cropping Systems website.
More savings can be realized by combining overhead irrigation with conservation tillage.
UC collaborator named 'Sustainable Agriculture Champion' by EPA
Hanford dairy farmer Dino Giacomazzi was recognized for his innovations in conservation tillage yesterday at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's 12th annual Environmental Awards Ceremony held in downtown Los Angeles, according to an EPA news release.
Giacomazzi was in good company. The 12 businesses and individuals honored included Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, Fresno mayor Ashley Swearengin and a 14-year-old boy who recorded a song about global warming that reached children on five continents.
According to the release, Giacomazzi is the fourth generation to manage Giacomazzi Dairy, a family farm of 900 cows and 600 acres, which has operated at the same location in Hanford since 1893.
Giacomazzi approaches his farm as a holistic system, and is continually looking for cultural practices that are sustainable both environmentally and economically. Working with USDA-NRCS and the University of California, Giacomazzi initiated the first demonstration evaluation of a strip-tillage corn planting system in the Central San Joaquin Valley, and has been experimenting since with different implements, plant varieties and planting configurations to optimize that system.
Strip-tillage is a farming practice that involves tilling in narrow strips rather than disturbing soil in the entire field. This process reduces diesel, dust, and particulate emissions as well as fuel and labor costs. For his corn-wheat rotation, Giacomazzi has reduced the annual number of tillage passes for each of his fields from 14 to 2.
Giacomazzi received the Conservation Tillage Farmer Innovator Award for 2008 by the University of California and the U.S. Natural Resources Conservation Service Conservation Tillage Workgroup.
The EPA awards were presented on the agency's 40th anniversary to help celebrate "40 Years of Environmentalism," the news release said.

Conservation tillage catches on in California
Farmers in California interested in trying conservation tillage practices have a new resource available with the launch yesterday of the UC Conservation Tillage and Cropping Systems Workgroup website, said an article in the Sacramento Bee. The story also appeared in the Merced Sun-Star.
Reporter Carol Reiter picked up the story from an ANR news release about the new resource.
No-Till Farmer magazine also ran a story this week about California efforts to encourage the use of minimum till methods.
"The practice is particularly well suited to dairy silage production in California where dairymen typically rotate from winter wheat or triticale right into spring corn," the story quoted Jeff Mitchell, UC Davis Cooperative Extension cropping systems specialist based at the Kearney Research and Extension Center in Parlier.
The new website, created using the ANR Communication Services Site Builder 3 web content management system, will help farmers investigate cropping management systems that have been shown in research and in practice to increase profits, reduce dust, conserve water and sequester carbon on the farm. The site includes research reports, a photo gallery, a video library, an audio podcast and much more.
Currently, about 2 percent of California farmland is managed under conservation tillage techniques. The rest continues to be managed with systems that have changed very little since irrigation and cropping intensification began in the region more than 65 years ago.
The new website is designed to arm farmers with information that will help them set aside the common conventional practices of annual plowing, disking, ripping and chiseling.

More farmers using dust-reducing techniques
Farmers in the Central Valley are increasingly turning to "conservation tillage," a variety of practices that reduce soil disturbance and cut down on dust, according to a story in the Modesto Bee over the weekend.
The story, written by John Holland, said producers in nine valley counties were surveyed by the Conservation Tillage and Cropping Systems Workgroup, an alliance of farmers, researchers and industry representatives coordinated by UC Davis Cooperative Extension specialist Jeff Mitchell. The survey found that 64,613 acres were being cultivated using some form of conservation tillage in 2004; and 416,035 acres were in CT in 2008."My philosophy is that good environmental stewardship must be profitable to be sustainable," workgroup member and Hanford-area dairy farmer Dino Giacomazzi was quoted in the story. "Our conservation tillage program has been helpful to our family business during these hard economic times."
Merced County UC Cooperative Extension farm advisor Maxwell Norton posted a comment about the story on the Modesto Bee website.
"The contribution of agriculture to reducing dust pollution over the last 30 has been huge: less burning, less tillage of all types, cover crops in orchards and vineyards are commonplace, nut harvesting equipment is getting better, and roads are being treated," Norton wrote.

By Stephen Hardy
Metro networks weren't the first applications of 100-Gbps technology. But operators within the niche appear to be making up for lost time.
As 100-Gbps deployments in long-haul networks gained momentum last year, several observers thought a less expensive alternative would have to be offered for 100 Gbps to see widespread deployment in the metro, particularly for data-center interconnect.
Events this year have proven such fears unfounded. This year's tide of 100-Gbps deployments includes several examples within metro/regional networks. But that doesn't mean those who called for a different technical approach to the metro were wrong.
Pent up demand
The increasing number of metro/regional 100-Gbps deployments highlights how quickly bandwidth demand has grown across network niches.
"Metro 100 gig has ramped quite well for us. About half of our customers that are deploying 100 gig are deploying 100 gig in the metro," says Michael Adams, vice president, product and technology marketing at Ciena Corp. The company counts CenturyLink and XO Communications among its high-profile metro 100G customers.

Ciena has found a healthy demand for both direct 100 Gigabit Ethernet (100GbE) connections - mainly for router interconnect, particularly from the larger carriers - and 10×10-Gbps muxponding. "Right now I would say almost about 40% of our deployment is with 100GbE, in the context of running them over 100-gig waves," Adams explains. "Now that's skewed a little bit to a smaller number of customers. I would say from a number-of-customers perspective, the statistic would be more skewed to 10×10G."
Mike Sabelhaus, who works on optical solutions for Fujitsu Network Communications, reports that 100G technology has appealed to several different carrier types. For example, one "large east coast wireless network operator" is using the technology to connect routers for mobile backhaul, he says. Wireless operators in general have adopted 100G for connecting mobile switching centers, Sabelhaus adds. Elsewhere, another large carrier customer has incorporated 100G technology into its network to meet a trio of requirements: fiber relief via 10G muxponding, IP router aggregation/interconnection, and support of Optical Transport Network (OTN) switching requirements.
Cable operators have interest in the technology as well. "A lot of what we're seeing in the cable networks is using it for their metro transport networks, hub site to hub site within a city or region, and potentially to connect backbones together or other regions together," Sabelhaus notes.
Like his competitors at Ciena, Sabelhaus sees significant interest in both direct 100GbE connections and muxponding applications. That trend should continue in the future, he says, based on his projections for demand between this year and 2015. "In the transponder area, I'm seeing roughly 50% to 75% growth from year to year," Sabelhaus reveals. "And muxponder is in the 30% to 40% growth area."
Demand for high-speed metro/regional pipes drives not only sales of 100G platforms, but also 100G network services. Zayo Group has just started to deploy its first customer-requested 100-Gbps metro link after building a metro-centered extension of its long-haul network for another customer.
The drivers for 100-Gbps network services are similar to those the systems vendors have encountered, reports Zach Nebergall, head of the wavelength product unit at Zayo. "Data center to data center is I'd say the primary driver we've seen so far," Nebergall says. "In the carrier segment, I'd say there is a similar dynamic, but a PoP [point of presence] to PoP scenario; with the wireless guys, it's a mobile switching center to PoP."
Coherence around coherent
Another commonality among the majority of metro/regional deployments is use of coherent transmission technology. Part of this trend may be that only one optical hardware supplier - ADVA Optical Networking - has commercialized an alternative that uses direct detection (more on this later). Nevertheless, coherent has proven more attractive than the doubters had believed.
Helen Xenos, Ciena's director of product and technology marketing, asserts that from a technical standpoint, coherent is popular for metro/regional applications for the same reasons it's popular in long-haul networks. It works on just about any fiber, is spectrally efficient, and delivers robust performance in the face of impairments.
Comfort with the technology also has proven a major factor with some deployers. "Given that it's early in the deployments, we think that the cost basis was still there, that we could make the same technology work," Nebergall says of Zayo's decision to use coherent technology. "The tradeoffs didn't make sense to us such that we'd move off of a piece of equipment that we were pleased with so far."
Yet, just because you're using the same system in your metro/regional and long-haul networks doesn't mean you're using exactly the same technology. For example, Adams acknowledges that Ciena has a portfolio of coherent combinations for different applications. While declining to provide a great deal of detail, he reveals that Ciena supports more than one approach to forward error correction so customers can balance reach and latency requirements. "We've talked about in the past that for metro, as an example, one possibility going forward is using 16QAM tuning capability to have a 50% economic improvement in metro/regional 100 gig," Adams adds.
Direct detect for the metro

But coherent hasn't succeeded within every corner of the metro. ADVA Optical Networking has found several customers for its 4×28-Gbps direct detect approach. In particular, cloud service providers, Internet exchanges (such as the Amsterdam Internet Exchange and DE-CIX), and private enterprises find direct detect appealing, according to Jim Theodoras, senior director of technical marketing at the systems house.
While the technique offers a smaller price tag than coherent, Theodoras says that factor often appears to be beside the point. "We were surprised at how less important 'cost competitive' was in this space," he says. "It turned out they cared more about compatibility and efficiency."
Among these customers, "compatibility" means dovetailing with existing 10-Gbps traffic and networks; it's comparatively easy to move from 10-Gbps to 25-Gbps wavelengths, particularly on the same network, Theodoras says. And "efficiency" means small power and footprint requirements as well as greater spectral efficiency versus 10 wavelengths of 10 Gbps.
Of course, four 25-Gbps wavelengths don't provide the spectral efficiency of a single 100-Gbps wavelength. Yet the gap between 4×45G and 100G may not be as great in some applications as it would appear, Theodoras asserts.
"It turns out that a lot of the existing 100-gig coherent offerings, to meet the type of span requirements [some users require on brownfield deployments], they need guard bands on each side of it," he explains. "So if you look at the guard bands required in a 100-gig coherent versus the 100-gig metro, it turns out it's not really a 4:1 disadvantage for [4×28-Gbps] 100-gig metro versus the coherent; it's almost a 2:1 disadvantage if you take into account the guard bands."
Cost does become an issue on the other side of the span spectrum, where applications run relatively short distances. Both of the Internet exchanges, for example, needed to send 100 Gbps less than 40 km. "If someone only needs to go 100 km, they don't want to pay for a 3,000-km solution," Theodoras reasons.
As this issue goes to press, ADVA Optical Networking is the only systems house to offer the 4×28-Gbps option as a publicly released product - but others, such as ECI Telecom, have signaled their intentions to join the party.
The question, given the success coherent approaches have had in the metro, is just how large that party will be.
