Minnesota Ag News Headlines
UMN and Takeda Announce Partnership Focused on Biopharma
Minnesota Ag Connection - 03/25/2019
The University of Minnesota's BioTechnology Institute (BTI), in conjunction with the College of Biological Sciences (CBS), and Tokyo-based Takeda Pharmaceutical Co., through its subsidiary Millennium Pharmaceuticals, have entered into an advanced workforce training partnership. They recently received a grant awarded by the State of Minnesota Job Skills Partnership (MJSP) Board to kick start their training efforts.
Over the next three years, BTI will provide advanced biopharmaceutical training for up to 125 Takeda employees working at its biologics manufacturing facility in Brooklyn Park, Minn. The training program will consist of six courses focused on a range of topics based on current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP), technical writing, facility operations and the product life cycle of biologics.
"This partnership allows the University of Minnesota to address a growing workforce need in our state," said BTI Director Michael Sadowsky. "Through it, we are laying the foundation to provide continuing education for the biopharma and biotechnology industry in Minnesota."
When fully operational in 2019, the Brooklyn Park facility will be Takeda's first large-scale monoclonal antibody production plant initially supplying Entyvio to patients with ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. The site is the largest facility in Minnesota devoted to biologics manufacturing, providing a foundation for manufacturing of medicinal biologics in the state.
"Takeda is excited to be partnering with the University of Minnesota's College of Biological Sciences and BioTechnology Institute," said Michael Gramer, Takeda's Sr. Director of Technical Operations. "The new training curriculum will support the development of our current and future workforce, further enabling us to provide medicines that positively impact the lives of patients around the world."
Along with developing and implementing this program to address immediate training and skill requirements, BTI is currently aligning its academic programs to better develop and deliver a workforce to meet the needs of Minnesota's more than 150 biopharmaceutical companies.
"Through this unique partnership, we are going to be able to offer training that can be scaled and expanded to help grow the state's biotechnology workforce, which includes our own students," said CBS Dean Valery Forbes. "It fills a very real need while also providing new opportunities for our graduates."

February is Return Shopping Carts to the Supermarket Month. Shopping carts are abandoned in the strangest of places: alongside roads, in ditches, under bridges. Today is the day to put those shopping carts back where they belong. It is estimated that two million shopping carts are taken from supermarkets each year, and with one shopping cart valued at $100, that's $200 million rolling away.
If pushing a shopping cart back to a supermarket all the way from a highway is too much to ask, you can start by returning shopping carts from the parking lot. Unattended carts can do a lot of damage to cars. Furthermore, studies show that abandoned shopping carts lead to people throwing other trash into parking lots. Returning carts fosters good citizenship!

Garda Commissioner Drew Harris helps arrest suspected drunk driver
Garda Commissioner Drew Harris has been involved in the arrest of a suspected drunk-driver in Dublin.
Commissioner Harris was returning from a meeting to Garda Headquarters on Tuesday evening when he came across a car being driven erratically in the Blanchardstown area.
Gardai confirmed they later arrested a person for a road traffic offense.
While Garda HQ would not officially comment on the specific nature of the incident, Independent.ie has learnt that a female was detained on suspicion of driving while under the influence of alcohol.
It's understood the Garda chief was being driven along a road near the Phoenix Park when he noticed another vehicle being driven in a dangerous manner.
Mr Harris, who at the time was with his official driver in a State vehicle, then notified his local officers.
Members of the DMR West Road Policing Unit attended the scene at around 5.30pm this evening.
A woman was later arrested on suspicion of drunk-driving and brought to Blanchardstown Garda Station.
While Mr Harris did not officially carry out the arrest himself, his role has been described as "assisting" the apprehension of the suspected drink-driver.
A garda spokesman said: "The Garda Commissioner was present today at a road traffic incident during which a driver was arrested for a road traffic offence.
"An Garda Síochána will not be making any further comment."
Mr Harris was appointed as the most senior Garda in the country in September 2018, having previously served 34 years with the Police Service of Northern Ireland.
During that time, he held a number of senior operational commands and has policing experience across a wide number of areas.
He was previously involved in a minor incident at Garda HQ in the Phoenix Park after the vehicle he was traveling in collided with a mechanical bollard at the entrance gate.
Mr Harris did not suffer any serious injury and the incident was later blamed on a 'mechanical fault'.

We talk about the pain of losing her faith and how her yearning for God lit the fuse that would become THE INCENDIARIES, a story about characters pulled into a religious terrorist sect. We talk about the 10 years the novel took to write, how she dealt with the challenge of writing convincingly about fanaticism, and what it's like being a cool author. She also opens up about some personal creative quirks, and I actually ask the question 'what's your favourite letter of the alphabet?' because that is how a serious adult interviews a writer about literature. But I genuinely wanted to know!

Since the irreverent Duchamp's Roue de bicyclette (1913), the research of contemporary has begun to focus on questioning the foundations of the artistic concept. The issues involved are above all the meaning of the masterpiece, its definition, its destination, the logic of the market it is subject to and the institutional spaces that legitimise it.
By painting the moustache at Gioconda, Duchamp interrogated his audience about the drama of the "icon", just as, by signing his models, Manzoni posed the problem of the artist's authorship and how it defines the value of an object that automatically rises to "artwork".
When contemporary research invests the realm of decoration, the artist can hardly ignore these questions.
The sumptuous world of jewellery is linked to the notions of wealth, luxury, seduction, fashion, social membership. Artists like Karin Seufert, Philip Sajet, Karl Fritsch, play on the overthrow of preconceived canons, on the ambiguity of their works and the disorientation of the viewer. All of them have been guests of Preziosa, where they exposed works that highlight the internal contradictions of the rich world of ornamentation.
Karin Seufert analyses the statement hidden behind wearing a precious jewel. Human desire is connected to the appropriation of symbols that declare his belonging to an elite group. Sportive brands, like Puma, Nike or Adidas, reflect on a more commercial present the same intention which motivates the purchase of a Cartier panther. The historical sacredness of an onyx cameo, the outcome of the engraving skills, is lost in the incongruous use of PVC, an industrial material easy to work.
Another "visual contradiction", as a metaphor for the destructive human ambition, is produced by Karl Fritsch's jewellery. Like Babel towers, ostentatious acts of pride, his rings defy the laws of physics, stacking real or fake gems, which seem to be about to collapse under their own weight. Diamonds and rubies are mixed with plastic pearls and glass gems, tricking the wearer and ridiculing him. The notion of beauty and precious are so carried to the extreme, to the point when they become unsightly and almost grotesque. That desecrating and demystifying attitude is not so far from the famous Déjeuner en fourrure by Meret Oppenheim, who in 1936 covered a little cup, its saucer and spoon, symbols of the bourgeois salons of Paris, by luxurious fur, creating a bewildering reaction in the spectator.
Even Philip Sajet plays on the duality of what we see and what it really is: its jewels are sometimes worthless copies of the famous ones and seem to console the impossible desire to possess them. Like Fritsch, Sajet combines pearls and corals with synthetic stones or glass, making us reflect on the cost of human exploitation for the finding of the gems, of which we are complicit when we buy expensive jewellery. Its rough and pointed stones, like daggers, lay bare the violence of a conniving society, greedy for what is valuable.
But what is the "value" when it comes to contemporary jewellery?
The glass stones by Sajet and Fritsch, as the Seufert's PVC, assume worth in the issues that their creations open. Just like the Oppenheim's fur cup, they illuminate a sad reality that exploits for its enrichment the weaknesses and contradictions of the human being. The traditional rules on which the jewel-object is founded, like its mounting, the cutting of the stone, its refined execution, undergo a reversal, a disruption. These artists rely on their own need to go beyond their certainties and convictions about jewellery, to probe an insidious field such as the embellishment of one's person and the desire for possession.

ABC7: Supreme Court partly reinstates Trump travel ban, fall arguments set
On June 26, ABC 7 reports:
On the Monday, the Supreme Court said the ban could be enforced if people from those countries lack a bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the United States.
Yohnka said the court's action is not indicative that the ban will be put in place. In fact, he said the court may rule against it upon further review.
"This has been a bad idea from the start and I think the Supreme Court will take care of that," said Yohnka.
Ahmed Rehab with the Council for American Islamic Relations said it was unusual for the Supreme Court to take action on the issue and they should not have weighed in until after hearing oral arguments in October.
"One thing that Supreme Court did not do was to look at this tweet which contextualized the motivation behind that policy," said Ahmed Rehab from CAIR-Chicago..."

Air Chief Marshal BS Dhanoa on Monday said that Rafale combat aircraft would prove to be a "game-changer" for the Indian Air Force (IAF) as it would tilt the balance of power back in India's favour.
"IAF is about to get two squadrons of Rafale. Rafale has the capability that no enemy can interfere in the air operations which is a big thing. It will come and change the balance back to us," he told ANI here.
Dhanoa was speaking on the 20th anniversary of the Kargil war at an event organised to honour Squadron Leader Ajay Ahuja, whose plane was shot down during the war.

Holocene geochronology
The fundamental pre-requisite for using fossils to provide quantitative baselines for conservation biology is being able to determine the age of individual fossils. We use a range of methods including calibrated Amino Acid Racemisation dating, the technique of choice for determining the age of Holocene fossils for conservation palaeoecology, taphonomy and time-averaging studies. Understanding the age of a fossil assemblage requires understanding two critical issues: 1. The age of the samples and 2. The amount of time recorded in the samples.

Indigenous Health in Specialty Post-Graduate Medical Education Steering Committee
The Indigenous Health Specialty Post-graduate Medical Education (PGME) Steering Committee is an independent Royal College committee that guides and supports Royal College Committees and management responsible for implementing Council's resolution, "that Indigenous health become a mandatory component of postgraduate medical education, including curriculum, assessment and accreditation" (October 2017).
The Steering Committee, which is led by Indigenous educators and scholars, held its first meeting on February 6, 2019 and was guided during this day by Elder, Paul Skanks.
Meeting objectives
- Establish a common understanding of rules of engagement and decision making process.
- Review Vision Statement and draft Competencies Guide.
- Clarify a high-level work plan that maps the process including community engagement.
Steering Committee members agreed to communicate back to their constituencies the key points, directions and decisions made at the meetings.
The Steering Committee agreed to produce common key takeaways at the end of each meeting to:
- confirm the key points, directions and decisions made by the SC before close of the meeting to ensure common agreement on key takeaways;
- provide Steering Committee members with a tool to support their reporting back to their constituencies.
The takeaways message will be posted on the Royal College website.
Terms of Reference
The terms of reference were approved with additional clarification on the functioning of the committee:
- The Steering Committee will establish the direction, approach and key principles for Indigenous health education. Royal College management and various committees, under guidance of the Steering Committee, will produce specialty postgraduate medical education (PGME) standards, processes, guidance documents and other outputs as needed.
- The Steering Committee will operate by consensus (added to the terms of reference).
- The following additional perspectives are needed on the Steering Committee: clinical/hospital settings, clinical leaders, medical regulators, and the First Nations and Inuit Health Branch (added to the terms of reference). Others may be added over time.
- The constituencies already included on the Steering Committee should be explicitly listed within the terms of reference (e.g., Indigenous Physicians Association of Canada and Canadian Federation of Medical Students).
The Steering Committee also established additional structures and resources to support its work:
- Expert advisors: two or three Indigenous expert advisors drawn from or as identified by Steering Committee members to provide expert advice in each area of accreditation, assessment and curriculum.
- Working groups: may be created to support the work in each area outlined above to advance development of documents, resource materials, etc.; these may include the expert advisors and Royal College staff leads for the area.
Engagement Activities
Given the importance of early, effective, respectful, consistent and meaningful engagement with and accountability to Indigenous communities, the Steering Committee identified a number of partners/advisors that could be included in the Committee's work. The list included Indigenous and non-Indigenous bodies, and confederated entities to connect with at the community and regional levels (e.g., Network Environments for Indigenous Health Research).
These prospective partners/advisors will be asked if they are interested in supporting this initiative, and how they would like to be involved and work together.
The Steering Committee also drafted the following statement on partnerships:
Royal College partners and Indigenous partners agree to engage in respectful, equitable relationships as they reach agreement on their shared work and processes that define the change in competencies we hope to achieve through PGME.
Given the many concurrent efforts to enhance Indigenous health and fatigue within many of the identified organizations, the Royal College, the College of Family Physicians of Canada and the Association of Faculties of Medicine of Canada will discuss at a special meeting in April 2019 how best to harmonize efforts. This information will be provided to the Steering Committee for further consideration and development.
Setting the Stage (Background)
The Steering Committee was briefed on the foundational work accomplished to date that serves as a starting point to include Indigenous health in all aspects of residency education, including:
- a consensus vision statement developed by the Indigenous Health Advisory Committee;
- the revised Indigenous Health Values & Principles statement;
- the draft Indigenous Health Entry-to-Practice Competencies Guide; and
- the Indigenous Health Primer.
The Steering Committee was also provided a high level orientation on the functions of the Royal College education committees, the functioning of the Faculties of Medicine and AFMC, and the College of Family Physicians of Canada's current work to gain a better understanding of the context in which the Steering Committee's work is being done.
Draft Entry-to-Practice Competencies Guide
The draft Indigenous Health in Specialty PGME Entry-to-Practice Competencies Guide lists competencies that guide the implementation of Indigenous health in residency education based on three different sources: the IPAC-AFMC Indigenous Health Competencies, the TRC and the Indigenous Health Values and Principles Statement produced by the Indigenous Health Advisory Committee at the Royal College. Steering Committee members worked to:
- draft a one-sentence summative description of each CanMEDS Role that captures the essence of the practice of a "competent physician";
- revise and refine the competencies under each Role;
- discuss who should be involved in teaching and assessment.
Feedback will be integrated into the draft Competencies Guide and circulated to the Steering Committee for verification. The Steering Committee will subsequently collect broader input to ensure that the competencies are appropriate and comprehensive.

Via Mediaite explains the defference between himself and Ted Cruz:
President Obama does not see any similarities between himself and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX). During an interview with the Associated Press released Saturday morning, Obama rejected the notion that he "set a precedent" for first term senators like Cruz, Rand Paul (R-KY) and Marco Rubio (R-FL) who have sought out the spotlight early in their political careers.
"If you recall, when I came into the Senate my attitude was, I should just keep a pretty low profile in the Senate and just do the work," Obama told the AP, harkening back to early 2005. He admitted that the media may not have let him keep that low profile, but added, "I didn't go around courting the media, and I certainly didn't go around trying to shut down the government."
"And so I recognize that in today's media age, being controversial, taking controversial positions, rallying the most extreme parts of your base–whether it's left or right–is a lot of times the fastest way to get attention or raise money, but it's not good for government," Obama continued. "It's not good for the people we're supposed to be serving."
Unlike the brash Ted Cruz, Barack Obama gave his first nationally televised speech before he reached the Senate. At this point in his sole Senate term, Obama was (supposedly) writing his second memoir. In March 2007 (after just slightly more than two years in office) Obama announced he was running for President.
Meanwhile, here is a comprehensive list of all the work Obama was "just doing" during his first two years in Washington D.C.:

To live a Risk Blossoming life means stepping out from the day-to-day to explore, discover and grow. So when an opportunity comes around to jet boat down the whitewater rapids of the Snake River through Hells Canyon ….. you take it (even if it sounds terrifying).
Tim's Story
Hells Canyon. I had heard of it, but I really didn't know much about it or even where it was located. It turns out to be the nation's deepest river canyon, averaging 5,500 feet below the rim for approximately 75 miles. It is also the border between Idaho and Oregon. On the Idaho side, the rim height reaches 8,000 feet above the river at the Seven Devils Mountains.
I noted that Hells Canyon wasn't too far from Baker City, Oregon, one of our stopovers on the drift back to Phoenix. I thought we could drive to the rim for a view.
Don't Miss it!!
As I was checking into The Mountain View RV Resort, in Baker City, Oregon, I inquired and was told "Don't miss it" and handed a brochure from Hell's Canyon Adventures. It was then I realized we were talking about a whitewater river trip, not a view from the rim. I hadn't thought of that!
Deborah was all in, and we signed up for the all-day trip which would take us 27 miles down, and then 27 miles back up, the Snake River. Our whitewater river adventure would start just below Hells Canyon Dam. We were instructed to wear bathing suits. There was a good chance we would get wet or want to swim as deep in the canyon it can get quite hot. We were to arrive at 9:30 am for a 10:00 am launch. The 54-mile round trip, on the river, was estimated to take 5-6 hours, depending on the stops and the fun our group would choose to have.
Getting There
There was some confusion about the time required to drive to the boat launch. Our host at Mountain View RV Resort said it would take 2 hours and 45 minutes to make the drive. The tour operator said two-hours, but warned me to double check GPS instructions against a map because the launch site is very remote and some systems aren't accurate. We decided to leave at 7:00 am, which meant setting a morning alarm — ugh!
A Different View
After spending the last two-months in the Pacific Northwest, our drive presented a dramatically different view. I was used to beautiful trees and thick undergrowth preventing any view other than the magnificent foliage right next to you or the canyon of the roadway the foliage creates ahead of you. This morning, driving toward Hells Canyon in eastern Oregon, we had the soft glow of morning light and majestic Western vistas. I instantly realized, as an Arizonan, how much I love these horizon to horizon views.
It is just a 2-hour drive, but the folks at our RV resort seemed to know there would be photo stops when they suggested the extra 45-minutes. We were overwhelmed with the stark beauty as we moved toward the canyon. There were few trees on the large rolling hills ranch land.
We drove along the Powder River with the Wallowas Mountains in the distance. After driving for over 50-miles and only passing one very remote hamlet, we couldn't bypass a short loop through Halfway, OR.
Rural America continuously presents so many wonderful and inspiring Americana images. Just before entering this small town, of less than 300-people, there was a somewhat broken down house that now serves as the meeting place of Veterans of Foreign Wars. The lawn was mowed and the sun was shining, creating a striking image of the flag, presented at half mast, in honor of John McCain.
We had not had breakfast, and Deborah decided she wanted a pastry which seemed like a good idea to me. I had drank too much coffee this morning, so I obligingly stopped at the Old Pine Market. Deborah went inside where they suggested the pastries were better across the street at the bakery.
One would think "across the street" in a small town of 300 people, would be easy to find. We slowly drove a block north, flipped a U-turn and retracted two blocks South before asking a friendly local for instructions. Apparently, across the street meant a side street, not the main street. We finally found the plain white house, with a small "bakery" sign.
As Deborah entered 'the bakery' she was politely greeted with "Are you lost, Honey? I saw you drive by twice." Seems as though they're not only friendly, but they are very observant folks in Halfway. She was also greeted with the wonderful aroma of cinnamon rolls in the oven.
Unfortunately, we did not have time to wait for the rolls. But, I quickly devoured the fresh, homemade donut she bought for me. Back on the road, we wondered about Halfway. Were we Halfway to nowhere or Halfway to somewhere?
No Maps, No Signs, No Cell
When we came to the next junction. I wasn't sure which road to take. I chose the wrong one. But, fortunately, quickly reversed course. There was no cell reception to check Google maps and the road signs were just arrows pointing toward names I didn't recognize. I knew I was on the right road when we crossed the Snake River into Idaho just as instructed. The road turned parallel with the river and was posted — Private Road, Drive At Your Own Risk.
Photo Opportunities
Our road, the Hells Canyon Scenic Byway, hugged the river, whose flow quickly settled as a lake, 22 miles behind Hells Canyon Dam. I became overwhelmed with the mirror calm water which reflected the steeping walls as we began to enter Hells Canyon. I stopped, and stopped again, and again to look, absorb, and take pictures. There were no other cars. We had this majestic place all to ourselves.
Soon, Deborah became particularly concerned about time. I kept insisting, even though we were a little late, that we would make the boat. She didn't seem to share my confidence.
Hell's Canyon Adventure's Launch Site
Finally we reached and crossed dam and were now less than a mile from the end of this private road and the Hells Canyon Adventurers launch site. Deborah said, "I sure hope they waited for us" before looking at her phone in amazement — it read 9:35 AM. It was then that she told me that her phone had displayed 10 AM time, all the way along the lake while she was fretting and I was stopping.
Even though there was no cell service, her phone must have changed to Mountain Time, from Pacific Time, when we crossed the river into Idaho and drove along the lake. It then changed back to Pacific Time as we crossed the dam, going back into Oregon! My $45 Momentum dial watch never changed.
Captain Dusty
As we pulled into the parking lot, most of the rest of the passengers were assembled and we were quickly lead down about 60 stairs to sign waivers and climb aboard.
Captain Dusty went over the rules and thoroughly explained the boat. It was very stable craft with a shallow draft — probably 30-feet long and 12-feet wide. It is powered by triple diesel engines connected to water jet drives. Steering and a forward-reverse are controlled by sticks rather than wheels and shifters. This allows the boat, if needed, to be spun, like a saucer, rather than just turned in a curve.
The Whitewater Rapids
The magic started almost instantly as we passed down through the Class II Cliff Mountain and Rocky Point Rapids.
Soon, we were approaching Wild Sheep Rapids, the first of consecutive Class IV experiences. Captain Dusty spun the boat around and held it in place, facing upstream. We were only about 50-feet directly above where the smooth river suddenly falls 8-10 feet into the beginning of some gnarly whitewater. It was time for lifejackets and the realization of why we had to sign the waiver.
I didn't know what to expect as we dropped sideways angling steeply down into the deep whitewater. The downstream side of the bow disappeared into the rapids and the lead side of the boat, our side, got a 6-foot high wall of water drenching.
I wasn't sure of Captain Dusty's line until the second class IV drop into Granite Rapids. This time, he did the same side slide, but in the opposite direction. The customers on the other side of the boat got their equal opportunity drenching.
Hell's Canyon National Recreation Area
The fun, the views, the wildlife and the education of the canyon were inspiring. We saw bald eagles, mountain sheep, wild turkeys, migrating salmon and a large brown bear.
We learned about homesteaders who forged upstream from Lewiston, ID to establish very remote ranches. The remnants of those ranches and their buildings remain today on private land, accessible only by the river or long hiking trails, within this large National Recreation Area.
Returning upstream, I wanted to absorb everything about this river and this canyon.
Going Up-River
Captain Dusty powered through a straighter line going up the rapids. The feeling was surreal. It was like moving in slow motion.
The current against us was fast and the engines were running powerfully. Still, we were moving slowly with a clear view of the water cascading over giant boulders. We smoothly powered up the waterfalls at the head of each of the Class IV rapids. I was enjoying our adventure, and didn't want the dam to ever appear around a bend, which I knew would signal the end of this river fun.
Deborah's Perspective
I think that Tim was a bit unsure what my response would be when he asked if I wanted to go on the Hells Canyon Whitewater Adventure. I didn't hesitate. Yes, I wanted to go!!
As a coach, I will often hear people express more disappointment, as they look back at their lives, with the things they did not do, than the things they did not do well. I understand, and think nothing could be truer. When presented with a unique opportunity or experience, one should think long and hard before declining it. The opportunity might never represent itself again! And, you never know what lesson you might get the chance to learn.
My perspective was; we are here, if there is availability on this boat, then we are going.
Planning for the Adventure
Tim didn't stick around to ask me a second time for confirmation, he immediately got on the phone and made the reservations. When Tim gave me the sign that we were booked, our minds began to imagine and enjoy the prospects of our pending whitewater adventure!!
Getting ready was part of the journey. We filled Willy's gas tank, packed an ice chest full of drinks and snacks, packed towels and extra clothes, and prepared ourselves for an adventurous day, off the grid.
Making Memories
For me, being on the water is always special. I also love seeing and watching wildlife in their own environs, and my imagination will run rapid when I think about the early explorers and adventurers who first experienced this beautiful river deep in this abyss called Hells Canyon.
Throughout the day, crew and passengers shared smiles and laughter. We took the time to look up and see the clear blue skies, breath in the fresh air, admire the spectacular scenery and feel the power of the biggest whitewater in Idaho.
We experienced our own natural high and euphoria from doing something unique and special to "risk blossoming." Life continues to surprise us.
What new adventures are you saying "yes" to?

Trump Continues to Target Democratic Lawmakers
Advisers push back on charges of racism as the president issues a new attack on the 'squad'
President Trump on Sunday continued to target four progressive lawmakers known as the "squad," while his senior advisers pushed back against assertions from Democrats that he was racist.
Mr. Trump kicked off the fight a week ago by saying the four Democratic lawmakers, all of them minority women, should return to the "totally broken and crime infested places from which they came" and "fix" them. On Sunday the president tweeted from his New Jersey golf club that he doesn't think the U.S. House lawmakers are "capable of loving...

Airborne Plume Detection
Industrial accidents, wildfires, and terrorist attacks can all take the form of hazardous airborne plumes that jeopardize the health of people caught in their path. Early detection and real-time monitoring of the location and intensity of such plumes is possible using small, low-cost chemical sensors deployed across the area of concern. Such sensors are often deployed in difficult locations to reach, and so must be able to operate for long periods without calibration or maintenance.
Nano Gas Technologies
NevadaNano's Molecular Property Spectrometer™ (MPS™)—a robust, low-cost, silicon-chip-based sensor platform—is well-suited for ubiquitous deployment across large areas, such as cities or large facilities. Such deployments can be fixed or mobile. In recent work for the U.S. Army and the U.S. Air Force, NevadaNano is collaborating with robot experts at the University of Utah to demonstrate the use of the MPS™ aboard quadcopters. The systems autonomously avoid obstacles while conducting real-time chemical mapping of airborne chemical plumes. System data is wirelessly relayed to a central command post to provide real-time, actionable intelligence.
Benefits of MPS™
A deployed matrix of MPS™ sensor modules can be a smart way to track a broad spectrum of hazardous chemicals using Nano gas technologies—enabling myriad applications in military reconnaissance, surveillance, law enforcement, hazardous waste inspection/removal, search and rescue operations, and remote sensing and mapping.

So – There Was A Wool Sale …
Last month (August) was the tenth anniversary of a knitting event called "KAN", or Knit August Nights. SKEINZ had a wool sale, as they usually do, to help celebrate. It was very tempting but I managed to hold off until the very last week of it. They had some lovely yarns and some very good… Continue reading So – There Was A Wool Sale …
Finished Just In Time!
I've finished the little pink baby set, and I literally finished just in time. It turned out that my sister was down for the weekend and I asked her if she could take the set back with her. I finished putting on the last button five minutes before she arrived to pick it up! Fortunately… Continue reading Finished Just In Time!
Moving Forward
It may not be full steam ahead, but I am moving forward. In January 2018 I published the post "Changes Afoot". I wrote this after changing to WordPress as my hosting provider. The change was actually made in December 2017, so it is not too far off two years ago. When I changed over I… Continue reading Moving Forward
In The Pink Again
It's been a while but I'm knitting pink baby clothes again. My niece's new daughter is over two weeks old already, having been born over three weeks early, but I'm hoping to get a few things knitted quickly enough that she won't out grow them too soon. I've chosen a set from a book I've… Continue reading In The Pink Again
On Its Way! (Finally Finished)

I would hate it to be late for my grandson's birthday. This pattern seems to be good at… Continue reading On Its Way! (Finally Finished)
Almost Done!
I thought I'd better give you a quick update on the navy jacket I'm pushing to finish for my grandson's birthday. I had hoped to get it finished last weekend, but lost a couple of evenings to meetings last week. The main knitting is almost done, which will leave the bands and joining together to… Continue reading Almost Done!
Finished In Plenty Of Time
It's finished! I'm happy to report that the cowl has been finished in plenty of time for me to post it overseas. I've just wrapped it and packaged it up with a card so that it can be sent tomorrow. This has been quite a relaxing and straight forward pattern to knit. The only "whoopsie"… Continue reading Finished In Plenty Of Time
Birthday Present Cowl Update

Whoops – There Was A Wool Store!
It was good to have a break away for a few days last week. The trip up was a bit wet in places, but not too bad. Coming back home was another story, however. Very heavy rain made it difficult to see the road quite a lot of the time for the first half of… Continue reading Whoops – There Was A Wool Store!

Paying for School: Understanding the Montgomery GI Bill and Post 9/11 GI Bill
By Ryan Laspina
Senior Specialist, Red Flags and External Reviews at APUS
While the military offers their servicemen and servicewomen many excellent financial aid benefits, the complexity of all these benefits can make life confusing, especially for first time students. This week, we will look at the most popular type of military benefit — the GI Bills. There are two types of GI Bills — the Montgomery GI Bill and the Post 9/11 GI Bill. Each has different chapter benefits that are explained below:
1. Montgomery GI Bill
- Chapter 30 — This is for students who are active duty, separated, or retired from the military.
- Chapter 35 — This chapter is only for spouses or dependents of a service person or veteran who is 100% disabled due to a service related condition, or who died in service.
- Chapter 1606 — This benefit is for members of the Selected Reserve and National Guard.
2. Post 9/11 GI Bill
- Chapter 33 — This chapter is for any servicemember who served at least 90 days consecutively since 9/10/2001.
Who is eligible for which chapter is determined by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). Servicemembers can actually be eligible for more than one chapter. Other than eligibility, the biggest difference between the two bills is how the funds are paid out. Members under the Montgomery GI Bill are paid directly by the VA for each month that they are enrolled in courses. If they are active duty, the GI Bill will only pay for tuition costs. If they are not active, they will get a flat monthly rate to pay for tuition and other educational expenses. Members under the Post 9/11 GI Bill have their funds for tuition sent straight to the school they are attending. A Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) and book stipend are sent directly to the student, if eligible.
Another additional benefit that the Post 9/11 GI Bill offers is the ability for servicemembers to take concurrent courses at both a "brick and mortar" school and an online school. They must be enrolled at both universities (for example, attending both West Virginia University as well as American Military University). Also, the courses taken at the secondary school must apply to the student's degree program at the primary school. The benefit of this for Chapter 33 students is that it will provide the student with a more accurate BAH because it is based on the zip code of the brick and mortar school. The VA has determined the BAH rate at 100% for online schools to be approximately half the national average.
By far, the best resource for military students is a VA representative or a VA certifying official at the school they are attending. There are many factors that determine eligibility, so it is best to speak with a VA representative to make sure you are getting all the benefits you are entitled to. Next week, we will take a look at Military Tuition Assistance (TA), another very common military financial aid benefit.

The Greene County softball team came close to winning a pair of games but came up short to remain winless on the season.
The Rams came close to defeating the Jayettes of Perry, but the result was a 7-6 loss Tuesday night.
Emma Hoyle once again was the starter for the Rams, and she went 4 and 2/3 innings, giving up six runs (two of them earned) and striking out four batters. Jenna Beyers pitched the rest of the game in relief of Hoyle.
Greene County had 10 hits on the night, with three of those hits coming from Izzy Bravard. The Rams scored no earned runs.
The Jayettes had 11 hits on the night and capitalized on the Rams' seven errors to take a 7-5 lead heading into the bottom of the seventh, where the Rams could only score one run.
The Rams led 5-0 through five innings but fell to Roland-Story Wednesday night by a score of 6-5, with Beyers taking the pitching loss after giving up four earned runs in relief of starter Emma Hoyle.
Greene County had eight hits, with Tieryn Tucker driving in a run and recording two singles, and Karissa Stephenson recording a double.
It was a six-run sixth put R-S in front and sent the Rams to 0-8 on the season.
Up next for the Rams is a trip to play Glidden-Ralston.

Although I don't think it's aged all that well, back in 1970 THE WIZARD OF ID was one of my favorite newspaper strips and--along with SMOKEY STOVER and BEETLE BAILEY--a major influence on my own attempts to create a comic strip at 11 years of age. Here are some examples from that year.

Thanks for samples of The Wizard of Id from 1970. I sure wish that Johnny Hart's comics be collected in hardcover editions like so many others are.
