Colton Broshous started out on the line of scrimmage in his Freeport Junior Tackle days.
"I played for the Jets and I played starting right guard, if you can believe it," the Stockton senior running back said. "Then I went to Pearl City and played tight end in seventh grade.
"We played West Carroll and they thought I was a running back. And then in eighth grade, Pearl City wasn't co-opping with Stockton anymore and I played running back for Stockton."
Broshous has been running wild at the position ever since.
The senior has run for back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons, including this year, where he has an NUIC-leading 225 carries for 1,675 yards and 21 touchdowns.
Broshous ran for 1,062 yards in 2012, but was one of three backs to reach that mark, joining now-graduated standouts TJ Knutson (2,467) and Logan Staver (1,182).
"TJ and Logan really had the workload, but he's really a blend of their styles," Stockton lineman Ty Harmston said of Broshous. "The thing about him this year is, he doesn't go down on the first hit.
"He's got such good balance, awareness and it's hard to bring him down. He's fast too and has that breakaway speed. He may not be the fastest back, but he gets the job done."
So how did playing offensive line help his game as a running back?
"Well, first, being a linemen makes you tougher," Harmston said with a laugh. "But it makes you understand how the blocking and holes are going to come about in front of you.
"Then you know how and where to hit it and what angle. Knowing that before you're even there helps tremendously."
The results have been obvious.
"I think that's a great measure of him and why he's such a good back for us," Harmston said. "People know when he's going to get the ball and where he's going to get it, and he still makes a play."
Broshous credits the guys in front of him for creating the space. A line that's had to move around a bit and adjust since losing four starters from last season.
"Ty knew at the start of this season he'd move back to tackle from tight end," Broshous said. "Zane Elliot moved from tackle to center and running behind those guys just makes it so much easier.
"I give them a lot of credit. Our line has been great this year."
And that's why Stockton's been great this season, racking up a second straight undefeated regular season and a third straight undefeated conference record. Stockton is 31-3 since 2011 and has won 25 consecutive NUIC Upstate games since 2010 en route to three straight conference championships.
"It means a lot to us bringing back that Stockton tradition," Broshous said. "For some of us, we've never lost a conference game, and it just feels great knowing that we've brought being a powerhouse back here."
Stockton will host Alden-Hebron today at 1 p.m. in the team's first step on potentially a long quest back to state.
"It would be incredible if we could make it back," Broshous said. "I think we all know, though, that we have to take it one game at a time.
"We know they're all going to be tough."

Plant and forestry waste and energy crops could sustainably replace nearly a third of gasoline use by 2030, according to a new study published by Sandia National Laboratories (www.sandia.gov) and General Motors Corporation.
The "90 Billion Gallon Study" assumes that 75 billion gallons of ethanol would be produced from cellulosic feedstocks while 15 billion gallons would be made from corn.
The study focused on four sources of biofuels: agricultural residue (corn stover and wheat straw); forest residue; energy crops (such as switchgrass); and short-rotation woody crops (including willow and poplar trees). It also focuses on the costs of producing, harvesting, storing and transporting these cellulosic sources to biorefineries.
The researchers determined that 21 billion gallons of cellulosic ethanol could by produced per year by 2022 without displacing current crops. Sandia National Labs points out that the Renewable Fuels Standard calls for increasing biofuels production to 36 billion gallons annually by 2022.
The study's other findings are noteworthy:
• Continued support of R&D and initial commercialization is critical because sustained technological progress and commercial validation is a prerequisite to affordably producing the large volumes of ethanol considered in this study.
• Policy incentives such as a federal cap and trade program, carbon taxes, excise tax credits and loan guarantees for cellulosic biofuels are important to mitigate the risk of oil market volatility.
• The domestic investment for biofuels production is projected to be virtually the same as the investment required to sustain long-term domestic petroleum production.
• Cellulosic biofuels could compete without incentives with oil priced at $90 per barrel, assuming a reduction in total costs as advanced biofuels technologies mature.
• Large-scale cellulosic biofuel production could be achieved at or below current water consumption levels of petroleum fuels from on-shore oil production and refining.
Sandia is a multi-program laboratory operated by Sandia Corporation, a Lockheed Martin company, for the U.S. Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration. Sandia researches national security, energy and environmental technologies at facilities in Albuquerque, NM, and Livermore, CA.

Carolina Gold Rice Salad from 'Around the Southern Table'
Get the Recipe
At first glance, this white rice salad from Rebecca Lang's Around the Southern Table looks a bit one-dimensional. Take steamed white rice, golden raisins, pine nuts, and scallions and toss with a bit of oil and vinegar—you'll have a decent salad but nothing out of the ordinary. But Lang's version is more than just a simple grain salad. The potent mixture of a lemon's zest and its juice whisked together with a touch of orange juice and a drizzle of sweet and tangy white balsamic soaks effortlessly into the hot rice, plumps the raisins, and tempers the bite of the scallions.
Why I picked this recipe: A rice salad seemed like the perfect second side dish to accompany this week's lowcountry boil.
What worked: The vibrant citrus dressing is a perfect accompaniment to the rice, raisins, and pine nuts. The salad tastes great at room temperature and cold the next day.
What didn't: Lang doesn't offer directions for cooking the rice itself; instead she defers to the package directions. Since this is a salad, be sure to rinse your rice before cooking to keep the grains distinct and fluffy, and cook the rice in 2 1/2 cups of water.
Suggested tweaks: If you can't get your hands on Carolina Gold long-grain rice, another long-grain white rice will work just fine (I used California Basmati).
As always with our Cook the Book feature, we have five (5) copies of Around the Southern Table to give away this week.

Season premiere is Thursday, Jan. 31, at 10 p.m.
Superstar chef Anne Burrell hits the pavement to help prominent restaurants around the country find their most valuable employee - the executive chef.
In season two of Food Network's "Chef Wanted with Anne Burrell," premiering Thursday, Jan. 31, at 10 p.m., Chef Anne puts four top-level candidates through the ultimate job interview as she tests their culinary chops and business savvy in kitchen challenges that run the gamut. From testing their resourcefulness by creating a delicious dish using only four ingredients, to assessing their ability to pair their own dishes with a signature beer from the restaurant's menu, these chefs are in for the challenge of their lives.
For the final two chefs, it all boils down to one night of service when they are handed the keys to the restaurant and, potentially, the job of their dreams.
"Anne's culinary savvy and tough love come together to put these aspiring executive chefs through the toughest job interview they'll ever face," said Bob Tuschman, general manager and senior vice president of programming for the Food Network. "She brings out the best in these chefs, and viewers can't help but root for their success."
Over the 13-episode season, determined chefs from across the country are put through unpredictable culinary challenges. Whether it's a test of their Italian scratch cooking skills and their knowledge of the regional cuisine at the immense Tuscan Kitchen in New Hampshire; assessing their ability to work with the scraps of high-end ingredients while creating a whole new menu for Mirabelle Restaurant in Los Angeles; or challenging their creativity by preparing a gourmet version of a traditional Puerto Rican dish for Oceano's menu in Puerto Rico, each chef will devote blood, sweat and tears to prove to Anne that they are qualified to be executive chef.
Burrell has always stood out in the restaurant business for her remarkable culinary talent, bold and creative dishes, and her trademark spiky blond hair. After training at New York's Culinary Institute of America and Italy's Culinary Institute for Foreigners, she gained hands-on experience at notable New York restaurants including Felidia, Savoy, Lumi, and Italian Wine Merchants.
She has also battled on Food Network's "Iron Chef America" as Mario Batali's energetic and reliable sous chef. Additionally, Burrell taught for three years at New York's Institute of Culinary Education. She served as executive chef at New York hot-spot Centro Vinoteca from its opening in July 2007 through September 2008.
Burrell stars in "Secrets of a Restaurant Chef" and "Worst Cooks in America" on Food Network. Her bestselling cookbook, "Cook Like A Rock Star" (Clarkson Potter), was released in October 2011.

Ingrid_Doweary: Yeah, the news reports about the clean up crew members getting sick from the gasoline remind me of what happened to the 1st responders during 9/11.

passingiton: true, definitely made me more determined
Seventies Soulchild: What about VKN? Maybe she can pull the record for you, if she has time.
Ingrid_Doweary: Are you using the services of a local historical-genealogical society?

passingiton: what type of info do they give you
Seventies Soulchild: They gave me unlimited access to the marriage records, answered my questions professionally and with courtesy. Asked me who I was related to. In small places like that, you can get the hookup that way Referred me to the historical society

A blocked tear duct is a partial or complete blockage in the pathway that carries tears from the surface of the eye into the nose.
Alternative Names
Dacryostenosis; Blocked nasolacrimal duct; Nasolacrimal duct obstruction (NLDO)
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Tears are constantly being made to help protect the surface of your eye. They drain into a tear duct through a very small opening in the corner of your eye, near your nose. This opening is called the nasolacrimal duct. If this duct is blocked, the tears will build up and overflow onto the cheek, even when you are not crying.
In children, the duct may not be completely developed at birth. It may be closed or covered by a thin film, causing a partial blockage.
In adults, the duct can be damaged by infection, injury, or a tumor.
The symptom is
Sometimes, the tears may appear to be thicker. The tears may dry and become crusty.
If there is pus in the eyes or the eyelids get stuck together, your baby may have an eye infection called
Signs and tests
Most of the time, the health care provider will not need to do any tests.
Tests that may be done include:
Eye exam
Special eye stain (
fluorescein) to see how tears drain
- X-ray studies to examine the tear duct (rarely done)
Carefully clean the eyelids with a warm, wet washcloth. Be careful not to use the same part of the washcloth more than once.
Some doctors suggest gently massaging the area 2 – 3 times a day. Using a clean finger, rub the area from the inside corner of the eye toward the nose. This may help to open the tear duct.
If an eye infection develops, your health care provider may recommend that you use eye drops or ointment.
A blocked tear duct that does not improve may need to be opened by a probing procedure. This may require anesthesia. Rarely, a small tube or stent needs to be placed in the tear duct to keep it open.
In adults, the cause of the blockage must be treated. This may re-open the duct if there is not much damage. Surgery to reconstruct the passageway may be needed to re-establish normal tear drainage, and stop the overflow onto the cheek.
Expectations (prognosis)
Most of the time, a blocked tear duct will go away on its own before the child is 1 year old. If it does not clear on its own, the outcome is still likely to be good with treatment.
The outlook for a blocked tear duct in adults varies depending on the cause.
Tear duct blockage may increase the risk of eye infections.
Calling your health care provider
See your health care provider if you have tear overflow onto the cheek, because a tumor is one of the possible causes. Earlier treatment is more successful, and may be life-saving.
Many cases cannot be prevented. Properly treating nasal infections and

BARCELONA, Spain — In retrospect, traveling 6,000 miles to see a band does seem a bit ... crazy. And maybe buying concert tickets for two nights in a row and then flying out at dawn the next day wasn't the best idea. And yes, it might have been unwise to spend only three (well, 21/2) days in beauty-crammed Barcelona, where even the sidewalks are works of art.
But it wasn't just any band, and it wasn't just any trip for my sister, Alison, and me. It was our favorite band, a British group called the Stone Roses, and they were launching their first concert tour in 16 years.
By chance, we had gone to what turned out to be their last U.S. show in San Francisco, before it all ended in tears. So seeing their first official show after reuniting had a certain symmetry to it.
Barcelona: A July 22 Travel section article about a music-themed vacation to Barcelona, Spain, carried the headline "Rock the vacay: 1 band, 2 fans, 3 days in Barcelona? Vamanos!" The correct spelling of the Spanish word is "Vamonos" (meaning "Let's go"). —
And maybe even more than that, it proved we weren't so ancient and spontaneity-free that we couldn't make a spur-of-the-moment decision to just ... go.
I had a sentimental connection to the band too. Every single road trip my late husband and I took had started with the band's self-titled first album queued up on the CD player (ranked the best British album of all time in a London newspaper poll — yes, topping the Beatles and the Rolling Stones). The opening chords to the first song, "I Wanna Be Adored," always make me think of him.
So it was particularly special when the first song the Stone Roses played at the Razzmatazz club in a post-industrial part of Barcelona, following a frenzy-inducing recording of the Supremes' "Stoned Love" to introduce them, was "I Wanna Be Adored."
I think every one of the 2,000 people at the show sang along, not only to lyrics but to guitar riffs too (including, no doubt, Oasis singer Liam Gallagher, the band's most famous fan, who later told the BBC that the show made him "feel great again"). The crowd was so vocal that we couldn't even hear singer Ian Brown for most of the show, but it didn't matter. We were living a bit of British pop history.
I had known the night was going to be special on the ride over on Barcelona's rider-friendly subway. (Tip: Get the T-10 ticket and save money and time.) Sitting next to me, a gray-haired man in a business suit was clutching a plastic bag emblazoned with the words "Disco 100." At one point, he pulled out a record (not a CD — be still my heart!), as if he couldn't wait until he got home to see it. It was Gustavo Dudamel conducting Mendelssohn's Symphony No. 3.
Only my poor Spanish prevented me from telling him that I was from Los Angeles and that I had just seen my first Dudamel concert. I knew then that the musical stars were aligned.
But a lot of things were aligned on this magical trip, starting with pilgrimages to two buildings by the most rock-'n'-roll architect of all time, Antoni Gaudí, who unleashed his wild genius all over Barcelona.
We knew with our impossible schedule that we couldn't see all, or even many, of the buildings. So we started, right after we landed, at his still-unfinished masterpiece, the Sagrada Familia church. At last report, construction may be finished in about 15 years, but the Sisyphean nature of the task, at 130 years and counting, adds to its wonderful eccentricity.
My canny sister had bought our tickets to Sagrada Familia online; she knew we didn't have time to stand in lines on this trip. So we walked right in.
On the outside, it's a bit like a traditional cathedral — but one with wax dripping all over it, like a wine bottle that's been used as a candlestick holder. As a whole, it reminds me a bit of the French description jolie laide —- pretty-ugly, used for unconventional beauties.
Close up, you can see millions of fever-dream details in the exterior: a frieze with roosters, a cluster of rodents huddling around a post, a large turtle holding up a pillar.
I stood staring at the doors alone for a good five minutes. Massive, with every inch filled with words of praise to God in stunning 3-D carving. I loved how certain words were highlighted in gold, such as the repeated "Jesus Jesus" and "Gracies" (Catalan for thank you).
Inside, it was just as mind-blowing. We had timed it beautifully, and the setting sun made the stained glass glow like one of those old-fashioned kaleidoscope toys. At the peak of one spire, light poured in from a circular skylight, as if transmitting the rays of a higher being.
We walked back to our apartment, in the architecturally astonishing Eixample (pronounced ay-shamplah) neighborhood, stopping by the Mercat de la Concepció, one of the lovely old food markets of Barcelona and a lot less touristy than the famed Boqueria market. We bought several kilos of produce for the next three dinners and headed home.
We had chosen the apartment, rented through a stylish outfit called Destination BCN, for two reasons: It had a stunning roof terrace, with views of the old town to the south and the mountains to the north, and it was just a block from Gaudí's Casa Milà apartment building.
Once again intent on avoiding lines, we headed out first thing one day to Casa Milà, an undulating building that is organic architecture with a capital O. I could have spent hours on the roof, with its chimneys out of a "Star Wars" set and its spectacular view of Sagrada Familia. But time was the one thing we didn't have — except for a quick stop at the gift shop, which is the place to get stylish souvenirs.
I wanted to do something a little offbeat on this trip, so we headed one morning, by subway, bus and, finally, a charming old funicular, to the retro Tibidabo amusement park on a mountain overlooking Barcelona. It even has had its Hollywood moment, in Woody Allen's "Vicky Cristina Barcelona."
You haven't lived until you've taken a ride in a bright red 84-year-old plane suspended from a somewhat antique-looking rod and flown a few circuits high above the city. (A mist came in while we there, but on a clear day you can see straight to the Mediterranean.)
We kept the retro vibe going with lunch in the village-y Gràcia neighborhood below, at the pop-art dream called Flash Flash. It's a '70s institution serving up classic Spanish tortillas, surrounded by mod photos of the model wife of the owner. Everything is in black and white (including the waiters' clothes), with the red salt shakers and the red kitchen door the only splashes of color.
But we didn't forget the more distant past and spent one of our mornings walking the tiny back streets of the old Gotico and Born districts. We snapped up souvenirs at the legendary espadrille maker La Manual Arpargatera, where a (newly trendy) basic espadrille sets you back only 10 euros, or a little more than $12, and at the foodie destination Formatgeria la Seu, where a lovely Scottish woman sells local cheeses.
But there was no time for dallying. We had another show to get to.
At the second concert, we felt like the Stone Roses' cool crowd, comparing the audience and nodding to one another when the band sang a song that was different from the previous night's set.
We had met some sweet newlyweds the night before who had returned from their honeymoon in Cape Verde off West Africa, dropped their bags at home in northern England and flown straight to Barcelona for the show. The second night's crowd seemed just as committed, starting up with Roses-related football chants before the concert began.
My adrenaline level had dropped several notches from the first night, and the band seemed more relaxed too, less jittery at the start, sure that it was indeed adored.
After the show, our ears still muffled from standing a few feet from an enormous speaker, we sat on the terrace of our apartment having a last glass of very nice Spanish Priorat wine. We watched stars disappear behind clouds and the twinkling lights of a city that was very much alive, and we agreed that it had all been worth it.
Maybe we were thinking a bit differently when we had to head, groggily, to the airport a few hours later as people in late-night Barcelona were just returning home.
But in retrospect, I don't think it was crazy. It was genius, and I'd do it all again. And a note to the Stone Roses: Schedule a U.S. tour. We'll be there.

Filed under: Budget, Japan, Hatchback, Toyota, Daihatsu
Kei cars may be small in size, but they're big business in Japan. The latest arrival to the category is the little hatch you see above, the Toyota Pixis Epoch.
It's the fourth vehicle produced by the Daihatsu division but sold under the Toyota brand. As with other keis, power comes from a 660cc engine. It's mated to a continuously variable transmission driving either just the front wheels or all four. In both configurations, the Pixis Epoch features a stop-start system that helps its emissions and fuel efficiency figures come in well below even the Japanese government's stringent standards.
The whole package measures just 3,395 mm (133 inches) long, 1,475 mm (58 inches) wide and 1,500 mm (59 inches) tall, but offers a relatively spacious and utile interior, plus a tight turning radius of just 4.4 meters. Pricing ranges from 795,000 to 1.2 million yen - that's less than $10,000 (and no more than $15k). Further details in the press release after the jump.

Two Los Angeles Police Department officers are under investigation for allegedly preying on women over a period of five years, luring them into an unmarked car and forcing them to perform sex acts, according to court records.
Detectives from the LAPD's internal affairs unit suspect that Officers Luis Valenzuela and James Nichols targeted at least four women whom they had arrested previously or who worked for them as informants, according to a search warrant reviewed by The Times.
The pair repeatedly used the threat of jail to get women into their car and drove them to secluded areas where one of the officers demanded sex while the other kept watch, the warrant alleges.
Valenzuela and Nichols worked together until recently as narcotics officers in the Hollywood Division. Investigators have identified four women who encountered the pair and made similar independent accusations against them.

My Poll
Thanks for voting!
Here are the current poll results
TaylorMade M3 Driverview other products
TaylorMade is known for its big hitting drivers and not only is the M3 long, but it also has a unique face that makes it more accurate if you hit the heel or toe.
The M3's Twist Face is a radical departure from previous TaylorMade faces, with 'corrective face angles' used off-centre to reduce unwanted sidespin and deliver straighter shots. This is done by putting more loft and opening the face in the high-toe and using less with a closed face in the low-heel, which combat golfers' two most common mishits.
Key features and benefits:
- Twist Face uses corrective face angles to combat off-centre hits
- Reinforced Hammerhead slot springs to boost distance across the face
- Lightweight adjustable hosel has 12 settings to improve loft and face angle
- Forgiving 460cc and workable 440cc versions available
- Adjust trajectory, forgiveness and shape using the Y-Track weights
During a fitting we can experiment with the two sole weights to find your best ball flight. We'll also try different lofts and shafts, which is why you really must trust a pro who can advise you on your best driver set-up.

Leaders of the bar, judges, and the most prestigious public-interest organizations in New York City turn to students in the Lawyering in the Digital Age Clinic for help with pressing challenges.
While many law schools now offer law-and-technology courses, Columbia University has pioneered the study of how technology affects the practice of law. Students in the clinic learn contemporary law practice through hands-on experience using the digital technologies that are reshaping the profession.
In the classroom, students learn and practice basic skills, such as interviewing and counseling, with an emphasis on using digital technology to help make these very human encounters satisfying and productive. In addition, students employ technology as they draft pleadings, plan case strategy, and advocate in a variety of settings. Beyond learning how to implement technology in these traditional activities, students acquire the new skills that are transforming law practice—knowledge management, electronic fact-gathering, and presentation.
Clinic students work shoulder-to-shoulder, both in person and in an online environment, with lawyers for a wide range of public-interest organizations and members of the judiciary. These projects include:
Recently, clinic students, working in collaboration with the New York City Civil Court, began to develop an online, automated tenants' response to eviction proceedings. This could serve the needs of the hundreds of thousands of tenants who face eviction each year without the hope of obtaining a lawyer. Students also benefit as they emerge with a combination of contemporary legal and technical skills, giving them a considerable professional edge as they enter the practice of law.
Using Technology in Public Interest Law
Students Build Website Showcasing Hearing Process to Recover Seized Vehicle
Clinic students tackled a complicated issue on collateral consequences of criminal charges. The consequences are not spelled out in the Penal Code, in contrast to the direct consequences such as prison or fines. For example, an undocumented person arrested on a misdemeanor charge might face an extreme consequence, like deportation.
Lawyers, often expert in a narrow area of law, simply cannot know the myriad collateral consequences of all possible charges.
To address this challenge, students in the Lawyering In The Digital Age Clinic created a calculator that pools and organizes this specialized knowledge. The web-based tool enables lawyers to counsel clients, and judges to sentence defendants, with full knowledge of potential collateral consequences. The calculator, known as the 4C's project, currently reveals the consequences for cases involving immigration and tenancy in New York City public housing.
Future modules will track family, employment, and government benefits consequences.

A roller coaster ride — that's how Marshall Lamb describes the peanut industry for the past decade starting with the 2002 farm bill.
It has been characterized by market dips brought on by overproduction, followed by acreage cutbacks and lower production that then result in an upward market price trajectory, then a repeat of the cycle, says Lamb, who is research director of the USDA/ARS National Peanut Research Laboratory at Dawson, Ga..
"Right now, we're in a very dynamic situation," he said at the Mississippi Farm Bureau Federation's summer peanut commodity conference at Grenada, Miss.
"We're coming off two years, 2010-2011, that were marked by drought and very high temperatures in major production areas, which had an impact on peanut quality and supply,"
That reached a culmination in 2011, when severe drought in Texas sharply reduced production and shot the peanut market roller coaster dizzingly upward.
"With only 1.8 million tons produced and an edible supply just under 500,000 farmer stock tons (FST), and imports at roughly 70,000 tons, that left us with only a 2.4 million FST supply to work with. From 3 million FST in 2010 to 2.4 million in 2011 is a pretty steep drop.
"The crush was also a little higher in 2011, which left us with a carryout of only 207,000 FST. In the U.S., we have a shelling capacity of about 165,000 tons per month. Over a three-month period from August through October, the industry needs about 500,000 FST of carryover in the pipeline in order to keep the mills running and full until new crop deliveries come on board.
"When carryover gets down to 500,000 FST, that is extremely tight — as tight as we want to get in terms of marketing. Manufacturers get nervous, shellers get nervous, and that's why in 2011 uncontracted peanuts pushed up to $1,000 per ton.
"Shellers and manufacturers were scrambling to get peanuts that weren't already secured. That's also why, going into 2012, we were seeing contracts around $700 to $750 per ton — because they wanted to make sure there would be enough acreage going into the season to get this undersupply situation off our backs."
No contracts are currently being offered for 2012 peanuts, Lamb says, because "it's too early to tell which way this crop is going to go.
"From this point forward, yield will determine where we are in terms of the fall market. Don't expect a contract to come out anytime soon. Manufacturers want to see where this crop is going, so they won't support the shellers right now to go out and contract peanuts. And shellers can't afford to go out on a limb and speculate where this crop is going without having the backing of the manufacturers. All of which means no offer is going to trickle down to farmers right now."
A lot of uncertainties exist, Lamb says. "Yield and quality of this crop have a long way to go. We're on a seesaw right now, and it's balanced about in the middle. The question is, which way is it going to go — up or down? We've never made or lost a crop in June; it's just too early to tell."
Another factor that may influence the market, he says, is imports. Last year, peant imports totaled about 70,000 tons; this year, that could be cut in half.
New opportunities in Europe?
"The Argentine crop has been negatively affected by weather all year," he says. "They're in their harvest now, about 50 percent finished. They had a tremendous drought, followed by rain and freezing weather, all of which will reduce their crop. How they will finish will impact their exports. A lot of their peanuts that might have come to the U.S. will go to satisfy European demand.
"If they can't fill all that European demand, there could be some new opportunities for U.S. peanuts to get into that market, which would also help in the event we have an oversupply this year."
How will things stand at the end of the current marketing year July 31?
"A lot of people say we've got too many peanuts planted this year," Lamb says. "I'm not one of those.
"If we bring forward 210,000 FST from 2011, have 1.45 million planted acres for 2012, and if we average 3,350 pounds per acre, we'll produce a crop of roughly 2.4 million FST this year. That would give us a total supply to work with of roughly 2.6 to 2.7 million FST.
"Assuming a good average demand of 2.1 million FST, carryforward going out of this marketing year would be about 571,000 tons. That's not a flood of peanuts. It would get us back to a comfortable level, as far as having enough peanuts to supply the market.
"But, what if we get good weather and rains and have a yield average in the 3,550 pound range? That still won't flood the market, in my opinion. It would mean production of 2.5-2.6 million FST, which would give us carryout of 716,000 FST. We've been near that level before, so we still would be oversupplying.
"Conversely, what would happen if things should go downhill a bit and we average only about 3,150 pounds per acre? That's roughly 2.3 million FST of production, which would give us a 2.5 million FST supply. Take out demand and we'd be at 426,000 FST carryforward.
"If we can shell 165,000 tons per months, that's 495,000 tons we'd need for carryout. If that should happen, we'd be right back where we were in terms of the market being a little short in terms of carryforward."
Last year, Lamb says, "We were in the middle of a perfect storm in terms of supply/demand. We're still sort of in the middle of that storm, but in my opinion, we're slowly coming out of it."
If yields this year are average to above average, he says, some uncontracted peanuts could be forced into the loan.. "I'm not so sure I'd be afraid of that. Right now, we have a drought going on in the Midwest, and we've seen its impact on major commodity prices: corn, soybeans, and wheat prices all up strongly. That kind of scenario affects all of us. "If we get wheat and beans and corn fighting for acres, that will be direct competition for land that peanuts are grown on. If cotton gets back to 80 cents or above, that will have an effect, too. What happens in the Midwest will have an impact on peanut acreage.
"If the drought lingers, next spring when manufacturers and shellers are trying to contract peanuts to be planted in 2013, they're also going to want to be getting those peanuts out of the loan. If it's dry in the Midwest, prices of peanuts will go up if the competition for land stays strong. So, don't be afraid to put some peanuts in the loan if these other commodity prices stay high."
Looking at the three possible yield scenarios— average, below average, and above average — "none of them indicate that we're going to flood this market," Lamb says. "We may have a slight oversupply, or we may hit it right on the money, but the potential is there for undersupply as well."

This post has been corrected, as indicated below.
A Connecticut lawyer has withdrawn -- for now -- a $100-million lawsuit against the state of Connecticut on behalf of a 6-year-old survivor of the Newtown school shooting in which 20 young children were killed. According to the Washington Post, New Haven-based attorney Irving Pinsky might resubmit the claim after evaluating new evidence.
The basis of Pinsky's claim is that the state Board of Education, Department of Education and education commissioner failed to take appropriate steps to protect children at the Sandy Hook Elementary School from "foreseeable harm" and had failed to provide a "safe school setting." Pinsky's client, according to the complaint, "has sustained emotional and psychological trauma and injury, the nature and extent of which are yet to be determined."
The filing of this lawsuit will be attacked -- understandably -- as an extreme manifestation of American litigiousness and blame-shifting. But equally dubious is the notion that other branches of government should provide redress for victims of the shootings and their families.

Kimberly Kay needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 174 designs submitted by 40 freelance designers.
Kimberly Kay Photography
I am a full time wedding photographer. My style is mostly shooting outdoors in available light situations with a style that is relaxed, natural, earthy organic, romantic and timeless.
My target is the NW bridal market mainly focused on venues that are with in Central Oregon and urban Portland and Seattle WA, along the coastal areas.
This is my first time at this so I hope it makes sense. Please take a look at my current logo and work to get an idea of my style of photography. http://www.kkayphoto.com I really want to keep the same color concept. Chocolate brown, mustard yellow, and mossy color green, ivory could be added as well. I love those retro 70's colors. I also really love the idea of dots like I have. My current dot logo reminds me of a lens and I'd like the dots to look similar to replicate the circular motion of a lens focusing. Something round, yet I love the retro sort of bright vintage look to things. I have no idea on a font... but would love something that looks much more clean, professional and fits the dot style I'm after. Keeping it simple with the dot concept and font.
Id like the logo in vector format and on a translucent back ground so I can drag and drop the logo onto any color back ground I would like... such as over photos, brochures web page etc. As well as resize it at any size without distortion.
The colors I would like to use are:
Brown photo shop code is 543B15
Gold BEA11D
Green 8F9ELE

Mayor's Office
The Lincoln Police Department could save an estimated $2,000 a year in fuel and maintenance costs after converting the department's new fleet vehicle to run on clean-burning natural gas.
High-pressure-gas containment manufacturer Lincoln Composites and its partners in the project: Lincoln-based Eric's Electric; Fuel Conversion Solutions of Grain Valley, Mo.; and natural gas utility Black Hills Energy contributed the labor and materials to convert the vehicle.
Mayor Chris Beutler today accepted the keys to the new NGV from Lincoln Composites president Jack Schimenti at an event to mark the occasion. The new Ford Fusion will be used for parking meter enforcement and was chosen because of its frequent stops and extended idling time.
Mayor Beutler thanked all those involved the public-private partnership. "Every mile our police parking enforcement officers drive this natural-gas powered car, the City and its taxpayers are saving money and reducing our carbon footprint. This project is helping us to speed up the greening of our fleet, and that is in the best interests of everyone. Each step we take toward greener transportation options is another chapter in the story of how our community is working together to creatively meet our future transportation needs."
Schimenti acknowledged the presence of NGV's from a number of businesses. "These natural gas vehicles are a testament to the rapidly growing interest among fleet owners to save substantial fuel and maintenance costs and reduce our country's dependence on foreign oil," Schimenti said "In addition to fuel cost savings, costs for oil changes and other regularly scheduled maintenance will be reduced because natural gas burns cleaner than gasoline."

Millions of Game of Thrones fans are feeling sadness, outrage, and, sure, some perverse excitement after watching Sunday's episode titled "The Rains of Castamere." But for Game of Thrones author George R.R. Martin, such reactions to "The Red Wedding" are nothing new. Martin has been receiving exclamatory emails about the disastrous Tully-Frey union for more than a decade, ever since he published his Song of Ice and Fire saga's third novel, A Storm of Swords. Below, the author reveals why Robb had to die, gives his reaction to upset readers and spills the scene's horrifying real-life inspiration.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: How early in the process of writing the book series did you know you were gonna kill off Robb and Catelyn?
GEORGE R.R. MARTIN: I knew it almost from the beginning. Not the first day, but very soon. I've said in many interviews that I like my fiction to be unpredictable. I like there to be considerable suspense. I killed Ned in the first book and it shocked a lot of people. I killed Ned because everybody thinks he's the hero and that, sure, he's going to get into trouble, but then he'll somehow get out of it. The next predictable thing is to think his eldest son is going to rise up and avenge his father. And everybody is going to expect that. So immediately [killing Robb] became the next thing I had to do.
Since Song of Ice and Fire so often subverts reader expectations and avoids traditional fantasy storytelling structures, should fans have any real hope that this tale will have a happy ending? As The Boy recently said on Thrones, "If you think this has a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention."
I've stated numerous times that I anticipate a bittersweet ending.
What sort of reactions have you received from readers over the years about the scene?
Extreme. Both positive and negative. That was the hardest scene I've ever had to write. It's two-thirds of the way through the book, but I skipped over it when I came to it. So the entire book was done and there was still that one chapter left. Then I wrote it. It was like murdering two of your children. I try to make the readers feel they've lived the events of the book. Just as you grieve if a friend is killed, you should grieve if a fictional character is killed. You should care. If somebody dies and you just go get more popcorn, it's a superficial experience isn't it?
Why do you think it has such a powerful reaction? Robb wasn't one of your "viewpoint characters" in the books and Catelyn wasn't really a beloved personality.
[Long pause] That's an interesting question. I don't know if I have a good answer. Maybe the way I did it. There's a certain amount of foreboding leading up to it. It's a betrayal. It comes out of left field. It's at a wedding feast. Robb has made his peace and you think the worst is over. Then it comes out of nowhere. There's also secondary characters killed. Then outside hundreds of Stark people are killed. It's not just two people.
To me, that Robb and Catelyn are family makes it worse. And Catelyn has suffered so much and lost so many people around her, and she actually thinks she's lost more than she really has (since she doesn't know for sure that Arya, Bran and Rickon are alive). Then this happens.
She also has the moment there to plead. There's also her murdering the hostage. He's not a son that Frey particularly values.* So in the end her bluff is empty. And she does. She carries through. There's a certain power to that too.
NEXT: Does he regret it? Plus: The real-life Red Wedding with image

We've seen trees destroyed by gypsy moths, and we know about the threats posed by the fire ant, the emerald ash borer, and the Africanized honey bee. Lesser known—but equally destructive—invasive pests are also threatening some of our most important crops and native plants. The Asian soybean aphid is fast becoming a major problem for Midwestern soybean farmers. The bushy saltcedar, a deciduous tree brought to the United States for erosion control in the 1800s, is crowding out native willow and cottonwoods on more than a million acres along western waterways.
ARS considers the search for natural enemies to combat invasive plants and insects a top priority and funds 66 major biocontrol projects. One facet of the agency's reach—one that puts us in a unique position to do battle with the onslaught of invasives—is the staff of 44 ARS-funded scientists and technicians working at labs overseas.
USDA set up its first overseas laboratories in Paris in 1919. The European facility, now located outside the city of Montpellier, was joined by ARS labs that opened in Hurlingham, Argentina (1962), Beijing, China (1988), and Indooroopilly, Australia (1989). Together, these labs are building an impressive record of success, with discoveries of natural agents to control pests as varied as Asian soybean aphid and saltcedar.
Their work is rooted in a simple concept: If a pest is thriving unchecked in a new environment, find a predator or parasite that eats or attacks it in its original habitat, where both co-evolved. If tests show the biocontrol is safe and effective, import it and use it. Moreover, such an approach is both economical and environmentally friendly. Once a biocontrol proves successful, it reduces or eliminates the need for pesticides and other costly eradication measures.
Having overseas labs is a practical way for ARS scientists to work with local landowners and biologists to study the targeted insect or weed in its native range. As a first step, researchers must study the organism's biology and evaluate the impact of a candidate biocontrol in its native range and then examine its behavior, diet, and other factors to see if it will be effective. That kind of fieldwork often covers broad areas, and having a lab in the country makes it much easier to gain the access, acceptance, and recognition required for such exploration. Try wandering around collecting plants or insects in a foreign country without such connections, and you won't get very far.
Moreover, the stakes are enormous. The Asian longhorned beetle, which made its U.S. debut in New York's Central Park in 1996, threatens much of North America's $3.8 billion hardwood and ornamental tree industry. Olive fruit flies are threatening California's $33.9 million olive industry. The yellow starthistle, one of at least 4,000 to 5,000 exotic plants now established in the United States, has infested more than 10 million acres of rangeland in western states.
Potential biocontrols are subject to strict review and quarantine procedures before release. That quarantine process and the studies themselves can take years, but the work pays off. The South American Biological Control Laboratory in Argentina has examined 250 natural enemies of invasive pests and successfully released 23 biocontrols over the years. Another 18 are now being monitored at the lab's facilities and are due to be released soon.
The work is never easy. Every organism has its own diet, habitat range, morphology, reproductive system, survival strategies, and unique ability to adapt to changing conditions. This range of diversity makes finding the right predator for a particular pest particularly challenging.
Consider the effort to curb melaleuca (Melaleuca quinquenervia), a fast-growing tree native to Australia. The elm-shaped tree grows in moist, aquatic areas and does little damage in California, where it is grown as an ornamental. But it crowds out native vegetation in Florida and is threatening to take over parts of the Everglades. In their search for a biocontrol, researchers had to test 450 weevils and other organisms that feed on the fast-growing tree to determine the best candidate for combating it. After exhaustive greenhouse testing, they settled on a tiny grey-brown weevil, Oxyops vitiosa—now thriving in south Florida.
Two factors make invasive species a continuing threat. Invasive plants are often among the first to colonize disturbed parcels. As worldwide populations increase, pressures will mount to put more of what land remains available under the plow and to turn meadows and woods into residential communities. That means more disturbed habitat for invasives. Moreover, increased international travel is bringing more freight traffic and more people into new areas. More people and goods moving around means more fruit, seeds, insects, herbs, ornamentals, and other plant life brought to new areas and insects hitching rides in packing crates and cargo holds.
Considering what science is telling us about invasives, and how society is contributing to their proliferation, the research has never been more vital.

"It's the most wonderful time of the year," says one of the most popular songs of the season. Yet good cheer isn't what everyone experiences during the holidays. With that in mind, Pop & Hiss hoped to compile a list of the saddest yuletide songs ever recorded.
We can't claim these are definitively the saddest, because there are so many more available to choose from. Some are holiday standards, others may be less familiar because they typically don't show up on shopping mall playlists and those 24/7 holiday-music radio stations. So here are two dozen of our favorite holiday downers, in alphabetical order:
Elvis Costello & the Chieftains, "The St. Stephen's Day Murders." Costello collaborated with Chieftains leader Paddy Moloney on this macabre tale referencing the first Christian martyr and a less-than-idyllic holiday gathering of relatives: "For that is the time to eat, drink and be merry/Til the beer is all spilled and the whiskey has flowed/And the whole family tree you neglected to bury/Are feeding their faces until they explode." From the Chieftains' 1991 album "The Bells of Dublin."
Fear, "F— Christmas." L.A.'s notorious punk outfit weighed in on what's supposed to be the happiest season of the year in its jolting 1982 single in which singer Lee Ving wails: "Don't despair, just because it's Christmas/Children, they're all so gay at Christmas/All the children on the street/Hope they get something good to eat/But for me it's not so great." Then the world explodes.

I am having a go.Thrifty tips, ideas, news & experiences on anything around the home to shopping to re-cycling etc.
Re: I am having a go.
I have spent a few hundred quid on vets over the last six months. My two remaining pets shouldn't cost a lot, one is on tablets at £5 a month, and their food isn't expensive. Keeping my fingers crossed that my young lady cats don't get ill.
Re: I am having a go.
Hi all have been buying presents for every day leading up to Valentine . Cheap rings , dresses ,chocolates. Looking to pick wild flowers /bushes . So far holly bush twig and dead leaves .

Lot s and lots . Only big problem , cannot draw and write neat . Wonder if she who must be obeyed will stick it on the fridge like her grandchilds .....
P s still waiting for my presents , might settle for a kiss..... Real smoothie....
Re: I am having a go.
Bob, you do make me laugh. You are such a smoothie yourself. Hope you get your kiss and your card gets rightfully displayed.
My chicken blog: http://www.carolschickens.com/
Re: I am having a go.
I got better a huge bar of chocolate ,Toffee /hazel nut . (Eaten it just now at work the whole lot ). Got a back up and something else as well .
Going to see Wipers times play up London in March .
WW1 paper written in the trenches . Brothers treat .
Re: I am having a go.
Hi all , Spending money again . 2 x 25 kilo bag Mixed corn some Fancy name 13.00pounds.
Went to the veg and fruit and 6 pounds for 25/30 cabbages for chickens . job lot .
12 pounds for a case of oranges . Share with SHMBO . Grapes 1 pound a bowl . x 4 3pounds .
Notice other than oranges of which I had a dozen the rest for my animals .
Cat food tomorrow.
Last of the 10kilo mealworms started (mix in the corn .) . I must stop staring at my flock as I am feeding them every time . (They eat it all as well.)
Re: I am having a go.
hi , Another 13pounds Thurs for meds -chicken eye drops prescription only .Thought they might be for contact lens but super market said no.
6 quid for cat food , 2x loaves brown bread (40pence each) 2 x biscuits 30 pence each. dry cat food 1.06pence tin cat x6x1 2.25pence Corn flakes 39pence......
Bottom line starve one self -animals get fat. ,I should be a stick but a fat lump.
No extra cash this week so all in the minus . Payday two weeks of but still going strong .
Bought 500 pounds of euros at 1.1526 =pound . thought a good rate . Do not need till April , but every time a Polotician opens there mouths it goes down again.
Re: I am having a go.
Hi today 30 pounds fuel. Claim third party against driver hit rear of van -save 400 pounds all inclusive .(takes longer but hay ho) Not sure of time saving.
Plus a few pounds worth of eggs but spent that over and over.
Re: I am having a go.
All going well, always the unexpected !!
Re: I am having a go.
Hi all not spent any money as such aother than the dog food and cat food.
But thinking of spending lots . Not exactly frugal thinking so guilty I suppose .
Re: I am having a go.
Hi I am saving money on holidays , gone from japan to New Zealand via Canada .Asking for lots of quotes and SHMBO will have the final say on how much .(Even looking at a camper van hire and drive. How that will be a holiday for me I do not know . ) I want 5 star hotels , budget girl wants 3/4 b and b . Not quite the same.
Not spent any money yet but planning it .
Re: I am having a go.
Youth hostels are very good in New Zealand Bob, in some cracking places and you can get private rooms in some of them rather than dorms. Plus they have kitchen and clothes washing facilities too which is very handy and helps keep the costs down. And not just for young ones either. Might be worth looking into. If you find any that take your fancy, join the international YHA and you'll be good.

Re: I am having a go.
Hi Do not think I will show SHMBO that . I like my All inclusive Butler service holidays .
So far ranging from 3,000pp to 4,500pp .
Depends on length of time , places to visit and flights .
Probably stay over in Singapore both ways for a couple of days . Be away a month and not expecting much change from 10,000.00 . That is not including putting the girls and boys in health farm and dogs will have to be homed / dog kennels.
But till I get the dates firmed up not much I can get sorted.
Re: I am having a go.
Hi all , Saved a fortune , sent a few quid , made a few quid .
I believe all in all I have saved and better off.
Still a few days left .
My egg tin 9coinage from egg sales is now 65 pounds . Not profit as such as vet,food straw etc cost a lot more .But the point is it is in a tin and not my pocket . Savings ?Got a lot tp save for a months holidy at the chicken health farm .
Re: I am having a go.
Hi all , well I might seem to have spent a lot this month but it would seem as long as I do not go out on a spending binge tonight , I have saved a lot.
(Bank balance proves that.)
It is the thought when shopping do I need that , can I do with this and aavoiding the super market as much as possible.
Cannot say it will last , but it is in the mind and they say 3weeks is habit forming.
Wish smoking was as easy .
Not many pleasures left for me and smoking will be the next to go for sure .
Re: I am having a go.
You seem to have planned a lot of spending though. Is the holiday booked?
