Adriano De Souza Wins The 2013 Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach
Under rainy skies and a messy ocean, Adriano De Souza has become the first Brazilian to ring the iconic bell that represents a win at Australia's famed surf spot. De Souza defeated ASP World Tour rookie Nat Young out of Santa Cruz in the final, smashing Young's dreams of being the first goofyfoot to win at Bells in nearly two decades (the last being Marc Occhilupo). De Souza—who kicked of 2013 without a main sponsor—had a great run throughout the event and battled the likes of Mick Fanning and Jordy Smith before taking care of Nat Young in the final. De Souza's win marks his fourth career WCT victory and propels him into fourth in the points race. "I cannot describe what I feel right now," said De Souza on the podium. "I want to thank so many people, but right now I just want to ring the bell!" he added before ringing the oversized trophy like a madman.
The tour now has a break until May 8 when the boys head to Brazil for the Billabong Pro Rio, an event De Souza has won in the past.

Adriano de Souza Takes Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach Win Over Rookie Nat Young
BELLS BEACH, Victoria/AUS (Tuesday, April 2, 2013) – Adriano de Souza (BRA), 25, has claimed the 2013 Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach presented by Ford over ASP Dream Tour rookie Nat Young (USA), 21, in clean three-to-five foot (1 – 1.5 metre) waves at Bells Beach today. Event No. 2 of 10 on the 2013 ASP World Championship Tour (WCT), the Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach culminated in dramatic fashion today with the young Brazilian claiming the first South American men's title in the event's storied 52-year history.
"This is the most important event on tour to me," De Souza said. "Guys like Andy Irons, Kelly Slater, my hero Mick Fanning, they have all rung the Bell. I have been coming here a lot of years. I love the place. It has been a tough time for me recently. I started 2013 without a sponsor for the first time in many years. I had to believe in myself that a company would believe in me and one did. I have to say thanks to Pena for believing in me. I have a lot of people to thank, but all I want to do right now is ring the bell." De Souza's win today vaults the young South American ASP WCT No. 4 heading into the third event on tour in Brazil. "Next stop is at home in Brazil," De Souza said. "I feel comfortable at home, but there is also pressure to perform. I am going to enjoy this win, recharge for the next one and hopefully I can keep it going."
Young, the rookie goofy-footer from California's Santa Cruz, posted a career-best result today, wowing spectators and competitors alike with his run to the Finals. "It was a huge event for me," Young said. "Just to be in the field is a dream for me. I've looked up to the surfers in this event my whole life. The event has such a history behind it and I was honestly just excited to be here. Making the Final, I don't even have words for it. Of course I wanted to win it. I want to ring the bell as much as anyone else on tour. Don't get to it this year, but a Runner-Up finish is a big result for me and I'll take that into the next one."
Young's Runner-Up finish today pushes him to No. 5, tied with reigning ASP World Champion Joel Parkinson (AUS), 31, on the ASP WCT rankings.
Taj Burrow (AUS), 34, perennial ASP World Title threat, continued his blistering Bells Beach run this morning against compatriot Kai Otton (AUS), 33, in the Quarterfinals before coming up short to Young in their Semifinal bout. "It's a hard one to take but you can't give anyone an inch on tour these days," Burrow said. "Nat (Young) has been surfing so well. He's a rookie, but he's really polished and really dangerous. I'll take a 3rd though and refocus for Brazil."
Jordy Smith (ZAF), 25, was one of the form surfers at Bells Beach throughout the event window, consistently notching up high-scoring rides. The powerful South African's run was ended, however, in the Semifinals at the hands of De Souza. "Definitely disappointed that the score didn't come in for me at the end," De Souza said. "I really wanted to ring that Bell and felt like I've been surfing well all week. Congrats to Adriano (de Souza) though. He's been ripping. Everyone's been ripping and there have been some interesting results. Makes the year interesting. I'll take the momentum into Brazil."

Illinois no-till farmer Roger Kennell will never forget the spring of 1992. It was cool and wet, and he was forced to plant corn in less than ideal conditions just to get his crop in on time. A dry spell followed. And without any rain to soften the soil, the seed channel hardened like concrete, preventing nodal roots from developing.
"We had corn plants falling over and dying, literally," Kennell recalls of the year that cost him a significant amount in yield. That fall a representative from local equipment maker Case-DMI visited Kennell and asked him if he wanted to try a prototype machine designed to prevent such problems from happening again on his no-till corn acres. "That's when I started strip tilling," Kennell says.
The machine was basically an anhydrous toolbar equipped with regular anhydrous knives and 14-in. closing discs. It was designed to till a narrow strip of soil, about 8 in. wide, in the fall, into which Kennell could plant his corn seed the following spring. Behind the toolbar he pulled a dry fertilizer cart and an anhydrous tank to band nitrogen, potassium and phosphorous all in one pass while tilling the strips.
"I was real pleased with what I saw," Kennell says. "And we're getting better yields than with straight no till."
Kennell is part of a growing wave of no-till corn farmers who are buying strip-till equipment to combat low yields, inconsistent stands and slow early growth on poorly drained soils, especially in cool wet springs. The number of strip-till acres is still quite small - a fraction of the 16% of Midwest acres planted to no-till corn, according to Dan Towery, natural resources specialist with the Conservation Technology Information Center (CTIC).
However, experts expect that number to boom as more equipment becomes available, more dealers and co-ops step up to offer custom services, and more farmers look to combine the warming and drying benefits of tillage with the soil conservation benefits of no till.
Fools the corn
The concept of strip till is simple. By tilling a small strip you are putting more air in the soil, which makes the soil dry faster than in a conventional no-till system. But because only a third of the row width is being tilled, the system is still considered no till.
"It fools the corn into thinking it was field cultivated," says John Wolf, director of marketing for Progressive Farm Products, which makes strip-till equipment.
The result? Earlier planting, in extreme cases up to three weeks compared to a no-till system, less time to work the ground compared to conventional tillage, better stands, better early growth, and often higher yields in those years when weather conditions are adverse, says CTIC's Towery.
Yield data collected by universities in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Minnesota and Iowa show that strip till holds up to a 10% advantage over conventional no till, depending on soil, year and residue cover. In addition, it usually yields within 3% of conventional tillage, which uses a chisel plow in fall followed by spring secondary tillage, according to Dr. Tony Vyn, cropping systems agronomist at Purdue University. "So from a profitability standpoint, we are probably able to do strip tillage with a greater return on investment than conventional till," Vyn says.
Strip-till essentials
Until recently, few companies made strip-till equipment. And those that did all but sold out in the last four years.
However, now more companies are stepping into the game in response to rising demand. And they are offering fully equipped rigs as opposed to just add-ons that farmers would have to retrofit themselves, according to Frank Lessiter, editor and publisher of No-Till Farmer. "A lot of the equipment up until the last year or so were homemade modifications," he says. "Now you can buy complete strip-till rigs."
These rigs typically come in 6-, 8-, 12- and 16-row configurations, sized to match the width of your planter, and come with or without the ability to apply fertilizer at the same time you are tilling the strips.
Regardless of whether you buy a complete rig or put together your own, there are basically four essential components to any strip-till unit, according to Purdue's Vyn.
The first essential is a heavy-duty toolbar equipped with row markers that will allow you to lay out the strips in such a way that you can match up your planter in the spring.
Second is a coulter to cut through residue on the soil surface. Some recently developed strip-tillage tools also have row cleaners in front of the coulters.
Third is an anhydrous-type shank and knife assembly of moderate aggressiveness that is capable of loosening soil to depths from 4 to 8 in. Vyn says the shank should be capable of being equipped with a fertilizer tube assembly to allow for deep banding of phosphorous, potassium and anhydrous at the same time you are tilling the strips. This results in a greater economic return because you are accomplishing two operations (tillage and fertilizer placement) in one pass.
"Our rule of thumb is to run [the knives] 6__1/2 in. deep at 6__1/2 mph to get good fracturing of the soil," says Progressive's Wolf.
Finally, you'll need covering discs (also called disc sealers or disc closers) mounted immediately behind the shank to capture the soil being displaced by the knife and put it back in the strip to build a 3- to 4-in.-high berm on which to plant the following spring. The berm mellows to 2 in. or less by spring.
Can you afford?
The price of a strip-till machine starts at $5,000 to $7,000 for a 12-row basic setup without nutrient placement and goes up to $50,000, depending on how it's equipped.
For example, Kennell paid around $50,000 list price for his latest rig, which he bought from Case-DMI. It consists of a 3250 toolbar in a 12-row narrow (30-in.) configuration. The toolbar is attached to a NP9000 dry fertilizer caddy with a 9,000-lb. tank, auger meters and an air delivery system to apply potash and potassium. Behind the caddy is an anhydrous bar for banding anhydrous.
The toolbar is equipped with Mole knives as opposed to regular anhydrous knives, which Kennell says "heave" the ground rather than just opening it. "I wouldn't go back to regular knives if you paid me," Kennell says. "There's a bit more soil action so you can build a better berm." For more information about Mole knives, contact Hi-Pro Mfg., Dept. FIN, Rt. 24 W., Watseka, IL 60970, 815/432-5271.
Kennell also switched from 14- to 18-in. disc closers, which he says are needed to contain the additional soil kicked up by the Mole knives. The closers are non-sharpened to prevent them from cutting a groove on the side of the berm, which could cause it to wash out.
Kennell strip tills around 480 acres of corn and custom farms another 450, also strip tilled. Over the years he has compared conventional no till, strip till without nutrient placement and strip till with nutrient placement. Based on a five-year average, Kennell reports a 6-bu./acre advantage in strip till without nutrient placement and a 10-bu./acre advantage in strip till with nutrient placement over no till.
Factoring in the yield differences along with equipment costs, labor and other input expenses, he figures his profit per acre for strip till to be $38.84 with nutrient placement (N, P and K banded in the strip) and $27.92 without nutrient placement (broadcast P and K). This compares to $24.66 for no till (broadcast P and K and sidedress N) and $22.50 for conventional.
Progressive's Wolf says the easiest and cheapest way to get started is to use an existing anhydrous type toolbar and add a set of row markers. "We've had a lot of people start out like that," Wolf says. "Usually they do that for a couple of years and then decide to get more advanced and get into some fertilizer placement along with doing the strips."
If you do decide to retrofit an existing bar, Cary Sizelove, representative of Case-DMI, says to make sure the toolbar is made of heavy-duty 4- x 6-in. tubing instead of 4- x 4-in., which is needed to withstand the strength of the higher trip force shanks being built today.
For example, Case-DMI makes a heavy-duty, spring-bundle shank with a 850-lb. trip force ($120/shank) and just this year it is coming out with a new High Clearance Shank with 1,150-lb. trip force and 7__1/2-in. trip height ($290/shank). Contact Case-DMI, Dept. FIN, Box 65, Goodfield, IL 61742-0065, 309/965-2233. Sizelove says the shank you buy should have a starting trip force of at least 800 lbs. to ensure the knife stays in the ground and cuts at a constant depth so that you end up with a uniform berm for planting.
Custom an option
At a time when commodity prices are low, many farmers will not have the money to invest in a different tillage system. For that reason, more fertilizer dealers, co-ops and farmers who already own their own strip-till rigs are offering to rent out their equipment or do the work for you.
Costs can range anywhere from $9/acre for just equipment usage up to $14/acre to have someone do the work for you and furnish the tillage rig, tractor and fuel.
Although this new custom trend may be a good way to test strip-till equipment, some large-acreage farmers may be able to justify buying their own equipment. However, Case-DMI's Sizelove says farmers probably need at least 700 acres of corn. "And then you probably also need to do a little custom application," Sizelove says.
For example, Mark Freed, a no tiller from Lexington, IL, who farms 1,000 acres of corn in addition to doing custom work, says he was able to pay for his $40,000 rig in a single season. His fields were showing signs of sidewall compaction due to wetter, cooler soils before he switched from conventional no till to strip till in the late 1980s.
The compaction was costing him 5 to 10 bu./acre in those years when there wasn't rain for one to three weeks after planting to soften his silty clay-loam soil. With strip till, Freed has been able to recapture that yield loss.
Freed owns a 6200 Dual Placement Unit built by Progressive Farm Equipment, which, like Kennell's, can apply dry P and K along with anhydrous ammonia all in one pass. Contact Progressive Farm Products, Dept. FIN, Rt. 1, Box 17, Hudson, IL 61748, 309/454-1564.
Both DMI and Progressive also sell rigs that can apply liquid P and K along with anhydrous ammonia.
The downside of strips
Even though strip till works well, farmers still have to look at the possible downside, cautions CTIC's Towery. For example, he says your toolbar and planter have to match up exactly, and it takes a knack to see the strip. "Sometimes it takes a half of a day to get on it," he says.
Another potential drawback is that you never know when the window for getting your strips made will close in the fall. Anhydrous ammonia is the limiting factor. If it is applied too early in the fall, it could leach or volatilize. If you wait too long, the ground could freeze up, preventing application. To avoid this problem, some farmers are making their strips in the spring before planting instead of in the heat of harvest.
Another disadvantage with strip till may be size. Until recently, a 16-row was the largest strip-till toolbar you could buy, and you would have to special order it. However, just this year, Progressive has come out with a 60-ft., 24-row toolbar, model 7200, to meet the needs of farmers with 24-row planters.
Finally, strip tilling requires more horsepower than no till due to the depth of tillage for each strip and the weight and rolling resistance of the fertilizer tanks, according to Dr. Gyles Randall, soil scientist with the University of Minnesota's Southern Research and Outreach Center. "If you are pulling an ammonia tank or dry fertilizer caddy to supply N, P and K, between 20 and 30 hp/knife is needed," Randall says. However, horsepower requirements can vary by soil conditions, and in most areas, 12 to 15 hp/shank is oftentimes sufficient, according to Wolf and Sizelove.
Despite these challenges, Freed and no-till farmer Kennell say they are glad they switched tillage systems. Says Kennell, "It has allowed me to accomplish a lot of the objectives I had for no till yet get my yields back up to where I wanted them to be to be competitive."

Future investment in 2012 in Ireland may be hush hush from American companies because of the political risks involved, an analyst for the Irish Examiner says.
Conor Keane thinks the political situation in the U.S. might cause a negative view of US investment dollars coming to Ireland, especially in an election year.
Like many of their European counterparts, many U.S. politicians feel Ireland's corporation tax of 12.5% is attracting U.S. companies to set up shop in Ireland, to the detriment of the US economy.
In his piece in the Irish Examiner, Conor Keane mentions a quote Republican Presidential Michele Bachman gave to the New York Times to illustrate this.
"There are over 600 American companies that have gone to Ireland because of the tax rate. Over 100,000 jobs. I want those 100,000 jobs back in the United States," said the congresswoman from Minnesota.
Keane refutes this claim by highlighting statistics from an American Chamber of Commerce report that says that Irish companies in America employ some 120,000, while US businesses employ just under 90,000 in Ireland.

While he contends that U.S. investment will continue in the Emerald isle, he argues that it will be done quietly to avoid being associated with the view that U.S. jobs are being exported to Ireland.
However, Keane argues that with the election cycle in full flow, these facts might get lost in the rush, and the challenge is now to make sure that Americans know that Ireland gives back more that it supposedly takes. He contends that Ireland can act as a springboard to the European market for US companies, and that the Emerald Isle need to utilized as such as opposed to a punch line in a presidential candidate's speech about lost employment.

Tebow takeover seems inevitable entering camp
It almost reads like the script of an old school mafia movie. One can imagine Jets owner Woody Johnson (the don) with his arm around Mark Sanchez (the promising associate), whispering his assurances in New York. "Sure thing, Mark. You're our guy. Tim? Fuggedaboutit. We got your back." Then, as expected, comes the hit. The Jets' training camp begins this Thursday, and so does the drama between Sanchez and backup quarterback Tim Tebow. All eyes will be on them, especially… Read More »

Zero Hunger Challenge comes to Asia and the PacificApr 29, 2013
Bangkok – The United Nations launched the Zero Hunger Challenge in Asia and the Pacific here today in the presence of top national leaders, calling on governments, farmers, scientists, business, civil society and consumers to join hands to end hunger in the region where the majority of the world's undernourished people live.
"We cannot rest while so many people go hungry in a world where there is enough food for all," UN Deputy Secretary-General Jan Eliasson said at the launch ceremony.
The event was attended by the Prime Minister and Minister of Defense and Security of Timor-Leste, Mr. Kay Rala Xanana Gusmão, the Prime Minister of Solomon Islands, Mr. Gordon Darcy Lilo, and the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Agriculture and Cooperatives of Thailand, Mr. Yukol Limlamthong.
The global Zero Hunger Challenge, proposed by UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon during the UN Conference on Sustainable Development (Rio+20) in June 2012 has five objectives:
1) 100 per cent access to food for all, all year round;
2) end to stunting among children under two because of a lack of nutrients during pregnancy and in the early days of life;
3) ensuring sustainable food systems;
4) doubling smallholder productivity and income; and
5) reduction in food loss, at the farmer level, through lack of suitable storage and reduction of waste of food by retailers and consumers.
The UN Development Programme (UNDP) is contributing to a world without hunger by helping countries build and share solutions to achieve poverty reduction and the Millennium Development Goals, democratic governance, crisis prevention and recovery, environment and energy for sustainable development.
"The attainment of the Millennium Development Goal on poverty and hunger in this region during the remaining 1000 days in a big push is the first step to eliminating hunger," Mr. Eliasson said.
"We are counting on all partners to come together and make this happen. Governments, farmers, scientists, activists, businesses and consumers in Asia-Pacific all have to be part of this effort."
The Asia-Pacific Zero Hunger Challenge was launched during the 69th ESCAP Commission session. The Regional Thematic Working Group on Poverty and Hunger is co-chaired by ESCAP, the UNDP Asia-Pacific Regional Centre and the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific.

- Use super fine pins and pin together in the seam allowance. Try to avoid marking on the nap itself
- To avoid stitching problems and ripping baste seams with water soluble thread then baste a second time to fill in the spaces. Stitch with a velvet "V" foot even feed or roller foot. Then press seam open with steam to dissolve thread.
- When joining velvet to a lining or a smooth fabric, stitch with the velvet on top. Stitch with the nap even if stitching against the grain. Understitch by hand
- Use a stiff brush to brush away loose pile at cut edges. Finish with a serger, Hong Kong finish or Tricot binding.

I noticed that when your weapon break in combat, it disappears forever.
This is particularly annoying when you lose a good weapon that you can't find in the regular weapon shop, like the andergaster or the oxherd.
Would it be possible to make the weapon unusable when it breaks, but keep it in the inventory so it can be repaired later?

I should learn how to use BBDB how do you know that? ;-) * shapr can guess impressive. no, I don't mind at all. It's nice to know someone outside my direct family is interested enough to record that info about me :-) * shapr feels ego swell anyways, last I remember (without BBDB) you were doing a graduate degree, is that still true? has the FSF lured you away from your secret tropical hideaway to the land of big money for open source coders? * shapr googles for sachac bbdb? big brother data base shapr: Actually, this started from our conversation about Dvorak in #emacs (don't remember when, though) when we noticed the high proportion of Dvorak users among Emacs users. it's written in elisp o_O? Peacimowen: A contact manager for Emacs. you know emacs? I know of emacs Peacimowen: I've also used it to simulate bot-like behavior, though. shapr: I took a few units toward an MA Education after finishing my BS CS, but as CS Ed isn't really a research area here, I'm eyeing schools in Australia (very active in CS Ed conferences). sachac: have you seen my "I am not a koala" kinesis remapping? shapr: ERC hooked into BBDB, so when I /whois, it captures as much information as I can. remapping originally suggested by kensanata, he of much brain. I've never touched emacs.. I just know it exists. Peacimowen: it is very powerful shapr: As it can, that is. No, I haven't seen your kinesis remapping... Peacimowen: It's really cool.

with Filipino prompts and Filipino sections in their manuals. I know a
number of people who set their phones to the Filipino interface. I
think it's nice to have Filipino as a choice on ATMs. I think it's
nice that train announcements are done in English and Filipino.
But personally, I prefer the English terms because that's what I
started out with, at least for technical things. I use a cellphone,
not a selpon. I'd rather see "Settings saved." than "Na-save na ang
settings mo." or something like that. <shrug>
I'm not against the Filipino language. If having localized interfaces

Birthdate: 11/01/1987
Hometown: Norwich, Vermont
Sponsors: Burton, Volcom, Oakley, Adio, Go211.com, Frends.
How did you make it to where you are now?
I started off riding with my brothers and uncles when I was five but didn't do my first contest until I was fourteen. Then I started doing the USASA contests and kind of came up through that and then did some of the Grand Prix contests and just went from there.
What do you think you'd be doing if you didn't get into snowboarding?
I think I'd probably be at University of Vermont. I applied there two years ago not knowing what was going to happen with snowboarding and kind of had that as my default. So I guess if I didn't have snowboarding, I'd be in college, which would suck!
Who are your influences?
My main influence growing up was definitely Terje. He was the guy my brother and I always looked up to. Subjekt Haakonsen was always our favorite movie. And then in the last couple of years Travis Rice has influenced me a lot. But now, I'd say Mason (Aguirre), Danny (Davis), Jack (Mitrani), and Scotty (Lago) are my biggest influences. Those are the guys that push me the most when I'm riding these days.
What scares you?
Getting injured is what scares me the most. But you kind of just have to deal with; it just comes with the sport. I just try not to live in too much fear. I try not to think about my fears too much, because if you worry about them, things will just turn out bad.
What's more important-contests or filming?
In the past, contests were more important to me, because that was just my way of coming up and getting known in snowboarding. But now I think it's changing for me, now that I've done well in a couple contests I really want to focus on getting a good video part. So hopefully over that next couple of years I'll get to focus a lot more on that and put a lot of my energy into making movies.
What direction do you thing snowboarding is headed in?
I think it's definitely headed more toward a contest scene just because of TV and that's how the mainstream is getting into it. In a way I think it's good, but in another way I think it sucks because it kind of takes away from the sport. Snowboarding isn't all about just beating other people, it's about going out there with your friends and having fun, so I hope that kids can just realize what snowboarding was and is all about.
What has snowboarding taught you?
It's taught me a lot of different things, from the traveling to learning about the mountains to dealing with pressures, there are so many different things you can learn from snowboarding. It definitely teaches you a lot of life lessons and matures you at a young age. Most people my age are in a dorm partying, but what I'm doing is a job, so it makes you to grow up a little faster.
What is the job part of your job?
There's a lot required, especially with Burton, we have to go to a lot of round tables and give a lot of input and sometimes that just feels kind of like a job, because it's not just snowboarding. I think it's really important to give good input, because that's what makes the brand what it is. So for me that sometimes feels like a job, but really that's the least of my worries right now. Life's pretty good.
What's next for you in snowboarding?
What's next for me is showing people that I'm not only focused on contests. And I think some people saw that with my part in Mack Dawg's Picture This. I'd really like to explore more in the backcountry and next year I definitely want to take it to the next level and get some good backcountry shots and start moving that direction.

Many starting quarterbacks around the league have gone down with injuries in recent weeks forcing teams to look outside their organizations for help at the position.
The St. Louis Rams lost Sam Bradford for the season to a torn ACL. The Chicago Bears will be without Jay Cutler for at least a month after tearing his groin. The Cleveland Browns lost Brian Hoyer to a torn ACL as well. It's created roster spots for free agent quarterbacks to find new teams to play for.
However, one quarterback still not getting a call is Vince Young.
The Rams signed two quarterbacks after the injury to Sam Bradford. The Buffalo Bills added Matt Flynn after his release from the Oakland Raiders. The Chicago Bears re-signed Jordan Palmer. In an interview with Alex Marvez and Gil Brandt on Sirius XM NFL Radio, Young questioned why he's not getting a chance.
"Me and my wife and all my peers and fans, we're all trying to figure this stuff out. I don't have the slightest idea. It's like a huge question mark over my head every day I wake up in the morning to take care of my responsibilities and know I should be playing," Young said. "To not have one of those calls, it's tough."
Young spent the preseason with the Green Bay Packers and looked to have made the final 53-man roster when the team released Graham Harrell. However, Young was also let go as the team elected to keep just two quarterbacks in Aaron Rodgers and B.J. Coleman. Young completed 6 of 7 passes for 41 yards and a touchdown with three carries for 39 yards in an impressive showing against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 3 of the preseason. He finished the preseason completing 53-percent of his passes with a touchdown and no interceptions in four games played.
"All the work I put into that short time I was there I was very shocked to get cut and to hear that news the next day," Young said.
Young has been without a job ever since.
"You've got to still wake up every day and do what you have to," Young said. "I've got my little ones running around that I have to take care of and try not to think about the negative of it and hopefully the opportunity will come knocking on the door or the phone will ring."

But to me, I think it's something all of us must deal with. I have been dealing with it lately.
I started out this year like a bullet out of a gun. I had the motiviation to finish my novel, and got through more chapters than I have in years. I'm now on Chapter 14 and I have three chapters to go. I'm almost done with my book. Right now, I am five lines into the chapter and it's been like that all week.
I try to talk myself into it. I really do. But it's tough. I got laid off from my job a few weeks ago and really, I have all sorts of time to write now. But the motiviation just isn't there.
So what do you do? What do you do when you don't have motiviation? Do we write anyways? Fight it?
I guess so. I know I'm supposed to. But it's tough.
This time I didn't ask the writing community what to do...I didn't ask the experts. Instead, I'm just putting it out there.
Our jobs as writers is to write. No matter how many blog posts we write, no matter how often we tweet, and no matter how much self promotion we do, at the end of the day, we define ourselves as a writer by writing.
With or without motiviation, we must write. Even if we are spent. Even if we are drained. Even if the emotional energy is just. Not. There. I wanted to write this blog post for myself. To tell myelf this -
That no matter how much you get down, you are a writer. You are a writer. You don't need to be published to call yourself that. That even when the stress gets to you, the critics get to you, the stories just won't flow anymore - you are a writer. You have been that your whole life. Never forget that. You have wanted to be a writer way before you knew what it meant to be published. You just wanted to tell stories.
Today, tell a story. Write a story. Write for the purpose of getting that character out of your head, because he or she or it needs a voice. Write a story because there is a place, a location that haunts you, disturbs you, makes you think, inspires you, because it needs a voice too. Write because it feels good. Write because you want you to. Write for the audience, the reader that you haven't met yet. Write for the little child in you that dreamed about one day finding their name on the list of authors at the public library. Write for foolish, lofty reasons. Write terribly. Write good. Write what you want to write.
But know this - you are not alone. Others feel this way too even if they refuse to admit it. Even if they think they are above the lack of motiviation. Even if no one talks about it.
Be motivated today, because, damn it, you are worth it. The writer in you is worth it.
Remember, I wrote this post for me.
But I hope you find some use for it today too.

According to the kids over at Edmunds' Inside Line, BMW's M Division may be pulling a Monty Python — working on a proposal to develop a Z4M.
"There are days when it hurts not to have one, but there was no compelling business case at the time when the decision was taken," Albert Biermann, head of product development told Inside Line. "We are trying to make a case but there are so many factors to consider."
The absence of a Z4M is even more surprising since BMW's head of motorsport, Jens Marquardt, recently said the roundel-badged brand plans to introduce the Z4 GTS racer in the U.S. The GTS on the racetrack would basically just highlight that a road-going equivalent isn't available.

I like how the author tells the story. He refers to all of the characters by name so I don't mind that there a lot of characters. There are eleven characters! What I do mind is that it does not tell if Josh fell or jumped into the river. All it says is that they saw a splash and heard Josh yell.T his is not my favorite book over all because it does not have much action or description.
I recommend this book to people who like easy mystery books that keep them guessing. There are many reasons why each suspect could have committed the crime in this book.

I've written up a list of 16 items (at last count) that I believe I will be able to find on members of my family. Believe me, I know I won't have each item filled out for everyone & some information I will only be able to get for those who are still living....but the list I've come up with should cover most everything.
My Personal Information List Consists Of:
- Weight/Length @ Birth
- Hair/Eye Color
- Weight/Height (this would only be filled out once they are adults)
- Physical Traits/Marks (((such as scars, tattoos, wears glasses/contacts, etc)))
- Medical Conditions
- Disabilities
- Cause of Death
- Name/Place of High School
- Name/Place of College
- Degree(s)
- Cities/States Where Lived
- Occupation(s)
- Religion
- Hobbies
- Club Membership(s)
- Military Service
Another thing, if you want to cut costs, you can very easily work this list up on notebook paper. I haven't decided whether to go to the expense of writing the sheet up on the computer & then printing it out or not yet. I can see advantages doing it both ways. :) I'm kinda leading toward printing it out myself, instead of using notebook paper. My reason? Time saving for one & second, I know my hand would like not having to do all of that writing. :)
Finally, I've got a 3-ring binder(s) that I have (w/tabbed dividers for everyone) that the "Personal Information Sheets" would be filed in.
FYI: Being as there are only 16 items to be filled out, you "could" just add a 2nd card to the FGC's if you wanted. Just remember, that would add to the amount you'd have to store in your index card file box. As well as, being as there are only 17 lines to a card, you'd have to squeeze things up if you needed any extra lines.
Later, Deb

About candide08
Is that the TV networks should package and sell the drugs that can, obviously, remove them so far from reality.
Surely you jest.
I disagree with the results of this study...
I remember that. It's what used to be in my car before Sirius.
The major labels are such Luddites...
something and posting it on the internet.
If you say something rude to someone it is over quickly and has a limited audience.
Internet postings are (more or less) forever and can be seen by millions of people.
I'm not saying that either should be illegal, just that there are differences and there are limits to "free" speech.
a while ago, but not because I pirate anything. I stopped because 1. The prices git too high 2. I do not want stacks and stacks of physical discs (streaming or digital downloads are the way to go).
In addition to being bad at math and economics the MPAA and RIAA are technical Luddites.
Let's give Texas back to Mexico, they want to secede anyway.
so why should people expect the company to be any different?
They are in the last gasps of existence (actually I thought they were already gone), so I guess it doesn't matter what they do - except to the poor webmaster they decided to pick on.
"Once the old guard dies off, they have a shot at someone new blazing a path into the digital age..."
IF we make it that far. The Oil-Gas old-guard are powerful and will be kicking and screaming all the way against alternative energy.
(Forgive me for taking a tangent...)
So ban flights to and from Texas, the rest of the country would be better off anyway.
"It's Okay To Ignore The Constitution If..."
Ah yes, the fine American art of hypocrisy.
So the GOP says that videogames supposedly incite rape, yet Ms. Palins "crosshairs" website, and the hyperbolic rhetoric of the right, do not incite violence or shootings?
Seems to me that these observations are very selective and self-serving.
If EVERYONE wore "scanner resistant" clothing they could not possibly pat down everyone - it would break the system.
I was under the impression that CLEARED meant that the transfer had been acknowledged and completed by both ends.
If a bank can back out of a "cleared" transaction then we have nothing.
Maybe the bank should take longer, double check everything, etc. but when funds are cleared it should mean something.

Here's the Thing…These Hornets don't Sting
Nuggets vs Hornets
Pepsi Center 6pm
Our first Nuggets game of the season. Wasn't sure what to expect.
Jersey Geoff and his family must have been think'n the same thing as my family because we ran into him up in the thin-air section (300 section). This was their first Nuggets game of the season as well.
Gold Medalist Missy Franklin was at the game. (Denver resident but not Colorado native).
Pre-Game the Nuggets recognized Andre Iguodala for helping Team USA win the Olympic gold medal. Andre scored 23 points, 6 assists and had 2 rebounds tonight!
Nuggets also recognized center Timofey Mozgov for winning a bronze medal while playing for his native Russia.
The face of the Nuggets have changed so I'll hit you with some player names.
Danilo Gallinari.
Andre Miller
Kosta Koufos.
Kenneth Faried..14 points and 12 rebounds tonight.
Coach Karl.
Cory Brewer.
Ty Lawson nailed 17 points tonight.
Front Row Seat…Texting Fan of the Game.
Click here for a Video Recap of the game
Final Score
Nuggets 102..Hornets 84
.Nugget's are now 8-6 on the season and the win tonight was their 4th in a row. I must say at first I didn't like the new uniforms, but they're starting to grow on me.
Love that Old Skool logo.
I'm "D" the Ranter…Doing my best to be a well-rounded sports blogger 🙂

I was lucky enough to meet Dr. Walker when he supported the US versus Africa Meet at Duke in the summer of 1994. Dr. Walker worked to help our sport, he will be sorely missed.
"LeRoy Walker was one of the giants of our sport," noted one keen observer.
courtesy of USA Track & Field
INDIANAPOLIS - Dr. LeRoy Walker, the first African-American Olympic coach of Team USA and first African-American President of the U.S. Olympic Committee, died Monday at the age of 93. Walker was inducted into the National Track & Field Hall of Fame in 1983 and the U.S. Olympic Hall of Fame in 1987.
A pioneer in the sport of track and field, Walker was the former longtime coach at North Carolina Central University and served the sport as both a coach and an administrator. He was inducted into the U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association Hall of Fame as a member of its inaugural class in 1995, served as President of the U.S. Olympic Committee from 1992-96 and was named the first President Emeritus of the U.S. Olympic Committee in 1996. He held a doctoral degree from New York University.
Walker began his career at North Carolina Central in 1945 when he accepted a position as a football and basketball coach. He then started a track and field program as conditioning for his football and basketball players. He retired from coaching in 1973 before serving as Vice Chancellor from 1974-83 and as Chancellor from 1983-86.
During Walker's run at North Carolina Central, he coached athletes to 11 Olympic medals and sent track and field athletes to every Olympic Games from 1956 until 1980. He coached National Track & Field Hall of Famer Lee Calhoun to consecutive Olympic gold medals in the 110-meter hurdles in 1956 and 1960. Walker coached a total of eight Olympians, 30 national champions and 80 All Americans. In 1976 he became the first African American head coach of the men's U.S. Olympic team.
His involvement also included time spent as chairman of the AAU men's track & field committee (1973-76) and the coordinator of coaching assignments for the AAU and TAC (1973-80). He was the TAC president from 1984-88 and later served as senior vice president for sport of the Atlanta Committee for the Olympic Games.
Walker is the author of three major books surrounding track and field and physical fitness and became the first African American president of the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education, Recreation, and Dance (AAHPERD).
A 1940 graduate of Benedict College, Walker earned 11 letters in football, basketball and track and field before earning a master's degree at Columbia University in 1941. Following graduation he served as department chairs of physical education and recreation at Benedict and Bishop Colleges before moving to Prairie View A&M University. Walker also worked as director of the Army Specialized Training Program.
Walker has received 14 different hall of fame inductions, which also includes the North Carolina Central University Hall of Fame. He was the first African American to receive the James J. Corbett Memorial Award (1993), the top honor granted by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics.

NOTE: The following post contains horrible misuses of the word "awesome."
Internet savvy and awesome Sen. John McCain used his awesome Twitter account to post an awesome list (with awesome comments) of the "TOP TEN PORKIEST PROJECTS" in Congress' awesome spending bill. It is awesome.
#1. $1.7 million for pig odor research in Iowa.
#2. $2 million "for the promotion of astronomy" in Hawaii - because nothing says new jobs for average Americans like investing in astronomy.
#3. $332,000 for the design and construction of a school sidewalk in Franklin, Texas - not enough $ for schools in the stimulus?.
#4. $2.1 million for the Center for Grape Genetics in New York - quick peel me a grape.
#5. $650,000 for beaver management in North Carolina and Mississippi.
#6. $1 million for mormon cricket control in Utah - is that the species of cricket or a game played by the brits?
#7. $300,000 for the Montana World Trade Center - enough said.
#8. $200,000 "tattoo removal violence outreach program to could help gang members or others shed visible signs of their past" REALLY?
#9. $475,000 to build a parking garage in Provo City, Utah.
#10. $1.7M "for a honey bee factory" in Weslaco, TX.
The Arizona senator edited the original entry for beaver management. I wonder why.

Gloria Steinem said that the truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off.
Well, here's some truth for you. A lot of your dishwasher problems don't have anything to do with your dishwasher — they have to do with you.
No other appliance operates with so many variables, many of which you can affect: the amount of dishes, the amount of soil, the amount of detergent and rinse aid, dish placement, etc.
Before you get all huffy because you spent X-hundred amount of dollars on the darn thing, understand that little, tiny changes to the way you do things will improve the cleaning results of your dishwasher immensely.
If you do nothing else differently, here's the best dishwasher hack: just before you turn on your dishwasher, run your faucet until the water is steaming hot.
Otherwise, the water pumped into your dishwasher will be cold from sitting in your copper pipes. This way, you start with steamy water that has the best chance of reaching the high temperatures necessary for cleaning and drying completely. Water needs to be heated to 140-degrees Fahrenheit to dissolve food messes and disinfect dishes.
Read more tips on how to fix your dishwasher.

Experiential learning challenges students to:
apply skills learned in class to problems that don't always have predictable outcomes
work closely with faculty and reflect on the personal and professional meaning of these experiences
engage with diverse audiences, and
experience what it is like when responsibility extends beyond earning a grade and course credit -- the outcomes of experiential learning affect not only student learning, but people and organizations far beyond the classroom.
At the Experiential Learning Programs link to the left, we provide information about the range of programs and opportunities available to H&S students, as well as about student accomplishments in our various programs, including:
• Internships providing for-credit professional development opportunities
• Independent Study providing for-credit opportunities for students to engage in directed readings, serve as a research assistant for a faculty project, execute an independent research, scholarship, or creative inquiry project, and/or participate in a service learning experience
• Summer Scholars Program, providing paid summer research, scholarship, and creative inquiry opportunities for H&S students
• Student Conference Fund, to support H&S students presenting at conferences
• Emerson Summer Internship Scholarship
• ICNYC Program for H&S students
In all of these opportunities, students have the opportunity to take knowledge learned in the classroom out into the world, where they strive to put that knowledge to work and to see it in action. We hope that all of our students in H&S will take advantage of this diverse array of experiences.

The Waitrose Foundation Kenya
Waitrose Foundation Kenya
The Waitrose Foundation Kenya was launched in 2009, to cover the supply of vegetables and flowers. The supply base in Kenya not only consists of large farms but also includes many smallholders growing green beans on plots as small as one acre.
The workers' committees have chosen a diverse group of projects ranging from the purchase of an industrial washer/dryer to meet the daily needs of washing nappies at a crèche for 120 babies, to the equipping of a training centre with computers and books, through to provision of vocational training for a group of farm workers around Naivasha.
One of the most exciting projects involves the provision of solar lighting to a village community where there is no power and the only lighting available is by kerosene lanterns. Although solar lighting is widely used in the UK despite our lack of sunshine, it is largely unavailable in African due to its high cost. The equipment being sourced is both affordable and robust and could prove to be a huge opportunity for farming communities and villages throughout Africa.
Working with the local community councils, over 20 projects are now running and more than £750,000 has been raised so far.
Some project examples from Kenya can be found below:
Ravine Roses Kibiasiso Street Lighting Project
The lighting has been installed on the major footpath where workers pass on their way home in the evenings and it is also on the footpath between the Resource centre and the homes.
The solar powered street lighting project will help increase security for people working late or those walking home from the resource centre after dark.
Sunripe Savannah Gas Cooker Purchase Project
Workers in Naivasha town have for a long time used charcoal and firewood as a power source to prepare meals for their families. Though a cheap power source, it is slow meaning some family members miss breakfast due to the long preparation times. During the rainy season it is particularly problematic as the firewood is too damp to be used.
It is due to the challenges experienced during the rainy season and the collection of firewood that workers opted for a faster, safer and cost effective method for cooking meals.
The Foundation funded the purchase of gas cookers for the workers; which was well accepted and will go a long way in easing the challenges experienced by farm workers who are at times picked up very early in the morning hours to go to work.
With the new cookers, both farm workers and their children will be able to go to work and school having had a warm breakfast on cold Kenyan mornings.
