Thanks very much Kevin, I really appreciate you taking time to look at this. Keeping each property value to a single item, obviating the need for list parsing, is a good benefit. The only drawback is that it means we can't use OWL cardinality to restrict the number of, say, hasPathStartsWith properties. That means that you can publish your DR and then on my server I can publish an RDF triple that says <your Resource Set's URI> wdr:hasPathStartsWith 'red' And a semantic system could pick that up and add it to your DR definition. True, the provenance of that triple can be checked, but this is what I mean by being open, as opposed to closed world. The other problem is that OWL set operators are predicates (properties) that therefore must have Classes as their value. So in fact your example would have to be written thus: <wdr:ResourceSet> <wdr:hasAnyHostFrom>example.org</wdr:hasAnyHostFrom> <owl:unionOf rdf:parseType="Collection"> <wdr:ResourceSet> <wdr:pathStartsWith>foo</wdr:pathStartsWith> </wdr:ResourceSet> <wdr:ResourceSet> <wdr:pathStartsWith>bar</wdr:pathStartsWith> </wdr:ResourceSet> </owl:unionOf> </wdr:ResourceSet> as opposed to <wdr:ResourceSet> <wdr:hasAnyHostFrom>example.org</wdr:hasAnyHostFrom> <wdr:pathStartsWithAnyOf>foo bar</wdr:pathStartsWithAnyOf> </wdr:ResourceSet> Yes, there's more processing of the values, but that's something that an application can do in a single line normally (in Perl certainly) whereas to extract multiple values from multiple properties of multiple sets in an OWL collection - that sounds like several SPARQL queries just to get the data. That said, it wouldn't surprise me if this is the solution an RDF head would prefer. Hmmm... But... your example does perhaps point towards the XML-based solution proposed by Jo in the XG. And talking of Jo... I know he and others feel that REs are a road to confusion and error and, no doubt, in some cases that's true. As I've worked with them a bit I reckon that's the easiest way forward but, well, that's what I expect to use most of the time and I guess you would too. But we need alternative as well. Also, as Andrea is usually quick to point out, they don't work on RS defined by resource property. For all that though I'm awfully tempted to put this in IRC next time PROPOSED RESOLUTION: Conjunctions are unnecessary since Regular Expressions provide all the flexibility we need. ... but I'll keep that urge under control. We always knew this would be the hard part to resolve! Phil. Smith, Kevin, VF-Group wrote: > HI Phil, > > Good work!

When Ato Essandoh was offered the role of an African American doctor in Civil War-era New York City for BBC America's "Copper," he almost did a double-take. "My first thing was I had to look it up," he says. "Lots of people didn't really think there could have been an African American doctor in existence back then."
There were a handful, and Essandoh was reassured that his Dr. Freeman character was based in reality and not some kind of magical modern thinking imposed on a less-culturally sensitive past. But he's not alone in wondering if some characters in historically based TV series are too good to be true. Based on many current series, inhabitants of previous decades and centuries were seriously more progressive than previously understood.
Almost to a woman, female characters fight for equality ("Downton Abbey") and prenatal care ("Boardwalk Empire"), men labor happily alongside female warriors ("Vikings") and bosses ("Mad Men") and good guys are always civil if not friendly to minorities: Dr. Freeman's pal is a white police detective, and "Spartacus'" writers turned a real-life southern Italian, Oenomaus, into a black man.
"Dealing with historical drama can be problematic," acknowledges "Spartacus" show runner Steven S. DeKnight, whose show takes place circa 71 BC. "There are some things we can't do — we couldn't cast Asian actors; they didn't know about Asia at this time. And there were things we had to ignore — women are not supposed to be in a public place without an escort, and we had to deviate from that for story reasons."
It's a fine line to walk between being historically respectful and creating a series that modern audiences can identify with. Dramas that turn every female character liberated or every minority into a fully integrated member of the business and social community risk seeming like they were written by a staff of Pollyannas.
"That is what happens in some dramas, where they get nervous about giving characters responses that are fitting of the era," says "Downton" creator Julian Fellowes. "If you patronize the audience, they sense it."
And while "Downton" may have a slightly greater population of budding feminists than might have existed in real rural, upper-crust England at the time, it did take a risk last season when butler Carson gave voice to his real feelings about homosexuality. "Ninety-nine percent of our audience I'm sure are highly tolerant, but 80, 90 years ago Carson is disgusted," says executive producer Gareth Neame.
"The mistake is in thinking the audience won't be interested in someone who is not extraordinary or a groundbreaker," says "Mad Men" creator Matthew Weiner, whose women cover the spectrum of traditional to progressive. He says he walks carefully with his characterization of leading man Don Draper as decent-minded, but with culturally appropriate attitudes.
"Don Draper is not a racist, but Don Draper is a bigot," says Weiner. "Does Don want an African American to be on an account in their office? No."
He notes that there would have been plenty of ahead-of-their-times individuals in Draper's 1960s Manhattan, but it wouldn't make sense to either feature his characters all as such progressives or interacting with them.
"Whenever we talk about the show, people start talking about [pioneering ad executive] Mary Wells," Weiner says. "But when the show started, she was a secretary and we can't even know what a big deal she was going to become. You can't act like everybody was like that."
Still, it's hard to avoid searching the footnotes of history to find a justification for a character; in 2011, "Boardwalk Empire" brought on board a character based on a real-life female U.S. assistant attorney general. Says show creator Terence Winter, "It was great for us to portray a strong, powerful woman in an age and genre where you don't get to do that very often."
He adds, "I definitely don't want to paint a false history to make people feel good."
Instead, what most shows are aiming for is a sense of frisson between character and audience — and a sense of identification. "If you want to do a period story, you want to reflect the times we live in now and the issues and conflicts and struggles that happen to women or black and white and Latino regardless of the time they live in," says "Copper" co-creator Tom Fontana, who says he echoes the intensity of New York post-9/11 in his Civil War-era New York chaos. "You want people to tune in and go, 'Oh, that's not so far away from what I'm going through.'"
And, from time to time, history itself actually favors the progressive future, as "Vikings" creator Michael Hirst discovered while researching the Nordic conquerors. Women fought alongside their men and held important positions in society outside of the home.
"I felt I could reach across to contemporary women and tell them something they didn't know in a show that in theory is all about men in helmets," he says. "I'm really happy to write about that and confound all the prejudices people have in the modern world."

We are a husband and wife team who are embarking on our second business venture together. In 2002, we used our collective experience to build a thriving retail business. Due to our visible success and reputation in our community, someone approached us to purchase our business last year. We are now following our passion to help other organizations achieve our same level of success.
We help clients improve their business through communication, strategic planning, use of technology and customer relationship building. Our approach is to educate and train current staff so that many costly tactical elements normally outsourced can be coordinated internally. We specialize in strategic communication including public relations and emerging communication technologies, as well as media and technology training; low cost, high yield alternatives to advertising through technology and social media; and using strategic philanthropy and social marketing to help clients build their brand. In addition, we work with organizations to identify issues affecting efficiency and help them implement procedural changes, as well as facilitate strategic planning to ensure clients achieve their goals.
Our synergistic approach to problem solving through our complimentary skill set, as well as our emphasis on making the client self-sufficient for cost containment, sets us apart from our competition.
Clients could be small businesses, non-profits, academic institutions or corporations - we have had all of these entities as clients. We prefer to work with clients who somehow make a positive impact on the world. We like to work with forward thinking, energetic individuals with a can-do attitude who are willing to roll up their sleeves and do the hard work that needs to be done to succeed. High ethical standards are essential.

Notice to Members 00-64
SEC Approves Rule Changes to Amend Mediation Fee Structure
On August 11, 2000, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved a change to the Code of Arbitration Procedure (Code) to permit NASD Dispute Resolution, Inc., (NASD Dispute ResolutionSM) to implement a new fee structure for its mediation services. When the rule change becomes effective, NASD Dispute Resolution will replace its current flat fee for cases filed directly as mediations with a sliding-scale fee schedule that will result in lower fees to mediate smaller claims.
The rule change also affects cases filed as arbitrations that move to mediation. NASD Dispute Resolution will now charge the parties in such cases a mediation filing fee, except that no fee will be charged if a case involves claims of $25,000 or less. Previously, no mediation filing fee was assessed when parties in arbitration decided to mediate. However, as an inducement to parties to mediate cases in arbitration, parties will no longer pay the arbitration adjournment fee if they choose to mediate with NASD Dispute Resolution. The rule change also makes it clear that parties that choose to mediate can adjourn their arbitration, so they are not participating in two processes simultaneously. The rule change becomes effective for mediations filed on or after November 1, 2000.
Questions regarding this Notice may be directed to Kenneth L. Andrichik, Associate Vice President and Director of Mediation, NASD Dispute Resolution, at (212) 858-3915, e-mail; Elizabeth McCoy, Assistant Director of Mediation, NASD Dispute Resolution, at (212) 858-4341, e-mail; or Louise Corso, Assistant General Counsel, Office of General Counsel, NASD Regulation, Inc.

Slider Puzzle: Lesson 7
From OLPC
Slider Puzzle Lesson 7: The n-puzzle (Mathematical Patterns and Sequences)
The n-puzzle is general name for a slider puzzle that consists of a grid of numbered squares with one square missing, and the numbers out of sequence. The 9-puzzle is a 3×3 numbered grid, the 16 puzzle is a 4×4 numbered grid. The goal of the n-puzzle is put the scrambled numbers back in sequence.
The n-puzzle is a classical problem for modeling repeatable steps (or "algorithms") involving mathematical patterns (or "heuristics.") For example, you can begin by counting the number of misplaced tiles as you formulate a strategy for solving the puzzle. The n-puzzle also helps students to understand that some tile arrangements are unsolvable.
- Recognize patterns.
- Practice classification and grouping.
- Practice sequencing.
- Put numbers in order.
1) Start the Slider Puzzle activity and choose the category labeled "Sequencing." Sequencing is when you put things into a logical order.
2) When the first image comes up, think how this image is set up differently from the one on the Slider Puzzle. The Slider Puzzle creates a large image, where all the squares are pieces of the larger image, while the Sequencing image contains a number on each tile.
3) Try to solve the 9-tile puzzle first. Try to put the numbers in order from smallest to largest. Model for other students how to slide the keys and place them in order.
4) Once you are able to solve the 9-puzzle, share your strategies with the class. How is this different from the Slider Puzzles where you are assembling a picture?
5) Now try to solve the 16-puzzle. How is this harder or easier?
6) After completing the 16-puzzle, walk around and help those who are having trouble.

I just saw a new preview for episode 2. It was after Lets's Make a Deal and before Dr. Phil. At about 2:55 pm central Time. I forgot to add I saw footage of Monique or Shawne milking a cow and it looks like it kicks out twords her head. So I bet one of them will saw "When the cow kicked me in the head" the quote for episode 2 ?
Who is this in the orange??
Takeoff from 15 feet above the water gives a totally different perspective on the task than vs. Cerro Bayo at around 18,000 feet. Too bad, as this could have been more than a novelty act.

This portrait provides a good example of early 19th century men's fashion. Mr. Stearns wears a white shirt with the collar turned up (and heavily starched) and around his collar he wears a white "stock". This one has ruffles attached and is for more formal wear. His hairstyle is typical of the time period as well, with long sideburns and the front combed back. Most men of his time were clean-shaven. Having one's portrait painted was a special occasion that not all could afford so sitters usually donned their best clothing for the occasion.

ORLANDO, Fla. -- It's classic David vs. Goliath.
An undefeated boxing champion with an impressive 39-0 record, often called the best-pound-for-pound fighter in the world, vs. a wrestler. A very big wrestler.
With the hype machine ratcheted up to warp speed, WWE has posters everywhere. Everywhere. Six-time boxing world champ Floyd Mayweather, 149 lbs. soaking wet, vs. five-time wrestling champ The Big Show, a 440-lb. monster of a man. There's a foot and a half and 300-lb. difference between the two, but that didn't stop WWE from hooking up the warriors for what promises to gather plenty of media and fan attention at tonight's Wrestlemania pay-per-view.
Okay, yeah I know, wrestling is (gulp) er, scripted, but there's still plenty of intrigue. The fast-talking Mayweather, the carny they call Money, is facing the fight of his life, at least that's the storyline we're being asked to buy into.
Mayweather, ever so brash, is a long-time wrestling fan, rhyming off the names of wrestlers from days gone by. It's game time. We know he can talk the talk. Now he's gotta prove he can walk the walk.
"I'm a guy who's not afraid to take risks," said Mayweather at a press conference prior to last night's WWE Hall of Fame ceremony. "Win, lose or draw, I'm going to fight my ass off. The fans will get their money's worth. Who's the world's most talked-about entertainer? Me.
"We're going to bring controversy and entertainment together and there'll be an explosion. "My ultimate goal is to stay away from The Big Show. To tire him out. Wrestlers probably want to see him hit me with a chokeslam, but I'm going to hit him with the same shot that I broke his nose with at No Way Out.
"I could lose, but I'd still be undefeated at boxing."
The Big Show shot back.
"This guy made the mistake of entering my world in the first place. Now that I have agreed to these wide open rules, I may just break his back," he said.
"This is my world, not his."
WWE wrestlers are backing their behemoth.
"I have some really good days against The Show and some really bad days," said Rey Mysterio. "I was strapped to a stretcher and he slung me against a post. I landed face first and was knocked out.
"The Big Show is a strong dude ... Mayweather might get knocked out."
"There's a big chance that The Big Show could eat him," said JBL.
"Mayweather and Big Show could be ugly, but it'll be special," said Edge.
"We've been wanting to do something with Floyd for a long time," said WWE's Shane McMahon. "Sometimes things get carried away ... and this time we capitalized on it."
Pomp and pageantry. Glitz and glamour. Wrestlemania delivers it all.
Tonight, in a battle of champions, one big and one small, the world will watch. And for WWE, that's really what it's all about. Entertainment.

Wabash's Metzelaars Named to Colts Coaching Staffby Jim Amidon • March 11, 2004 Share:
A 1982 graduate of Wabash, Metzelaars was an All-American in both football and basketball for the Little Giants, and guided the Wabash basketball team to the 1982 National Championship. That year the 6-7, 250-pound center was named Division III Player of the Year for averaging 24.2 points, 13.2 rebounds, and an NCAA record field goal percentage of 75.3 percent. He was team captain for the basketball team and three-time Most Valuable Player.
In football, Metzelaars was an All-American in 1981, leading the Little Giants with 40 pass receptions for 603 yards and five touchdowns. In his four seasons as a Wabash tight end, Wabash posted a record of 32-3-1. He was team captain as a senior, helping fellow All-American Daryl Johnson rush for over 1,000 yards while leading the nation in scoring.
Metzelaars was a third round draft pick of the Seattle Seahawks, but was later traded to the Buffalo Bills, where he played in 10 seasons, won four AFC Championships, and played in four Super Bowls. He finished his career by playing one year with the expansion Carolina Panthers and two years with the Detroit Lions.
The Portage, Michigan native's NFL milestones include:
• Catching Jim Kelly's first touchdown pass in the NFL
• Catching a touchdown pass in Super Bowl XXVI
• Catching the first touchdown pass in Carolina Panthers team history
• Blocking for Barry Sanders in his 2,000-yard rushing season
• Playing in a streak of 169 straight NFL games
• Named an NFL Pro Bowl Alternate in 1988 and 1993
• Holds the NFL record for most games ever played by a tight end (235)
• Caught 383 passes in 16 NFL seasons
Metzelaars has been participating in the NFL's coaching development program, and last summer interned as a tight ends assistant during the Indianapolis Colts' pre-season training camp.

Product Overview
A hardened lead/antimony alloy core is first copper coated before heavy nickel plating is applied. This thick exterior layer serves as the hardening catalyst for the entire pellet. It provides the essential hardness and reduced friction for maximum penetration capability. The first thing you'll notice about birds hit with nickel-plated lead is the reduction or elimination of feathers in the wound channel. The surface coating of nickel allows these pellets to penetrate straight through tough feathers and deliver lethal energy where it counts most.
Pellets may have a larger size variation tolerance due to metric European sizing and the heavy plating process. Pellet diameters and pellet counts per load will differ from those to which American shooters have become accustomed. Conveniently packaged in heavy duty bags to allow for use as ballast for shooting rests.

By Alicia H. Munnell
It is not clear quite why it's happening, but , articles, and conferences are out to show that the employer-sponsored pension system is fine. I suspect that the financial services industry is worried about changes in the favorable tax provisions awarded retirement saving, and have launched a coordinated campaign to show that the private sector is doing a good job in providing retirement income and that reducing the tax subsidy would be a serious mistake. A good number of my friends seem to have signed up for the campaign.
One component of the "all-fine" effort is the contention that coverage is not a serious problem, since about 80% of workers have access to some form of pension. (The actual figure is 78%, but they use 80%, so I will also.) That number is very different from the figure I usually use – namely, that only 42% of private-sector workers aged 25-64 participate in an employer-sponsored plan.
Both figures are produced by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The 80% figure comes from the National Compensation Survey, which is an employer survey that provides comprehensive measures of occupational earnings, employment cost trends, and benefit incidence, and details on benefit provisions. The data have been provided monthly since 2010. The 42% figure comes from the Current Population Survey, which has been interviewing individuals about their pension coverage and participation since 1979.
Some real differences may exist between the two surveys, but it is helpful to compare apples to apples. First, the 80% figure refers to both the private sector and state and local employers. The National Compensation Survey does provide data separately for the two sectors. The percent of state and local workers offered a pension is 99%; almost all public-sector workers are covered by defined benefit plans. Eliminate state and local employers and the coverage figure for the private sector – comparable to the 80%– drops to 74%. The private and public sectors have very different retirement systems; it makes far more sense for analytical purposes to focus on the sector of the economy where coverage is an issue.
The second issue is full-time versus part-time. The 74% number refers only to full-time private sector workers. Add in part-time workers and the 74% drops to 64%. I cannot think of any rationale for excluding part-time workers from retirement plans.
The third issue is participation versus access. Only three-quarters of private-sector workers who are offered a plan chose to participate. Thus, the National Compensation Survey reports that only 49% of private-sector workers participate in a retirement plan.
Is the 49% participation rate from the National Compensation Survey comparable to the 42% from the Current Population Survey? Not quite. Both numbers refer to the private sector, both include both full-time and part-time workers, and both relate to participation rather than access. But the 42% figure in the Current Population Survey refers to workers age 25-64, whereas I think the National Compensation Survey includes all ages. Eliminating the age constraint from the Current Population Survey drops the coverage rate from 42% to 37%. Thus, the apples-to-apples comparison is 49% from the employer survey and 37% from the individual survey. The employer survey thus shows a participation rate for private sector workers that is 12 percentage points higher. I am not quite sure why this is the case, but am trying to find out.
But even according to the "all-fine" campaign's preferred data source, less than half of private sector workers are participating in a plan. That does not sound all fine to me. And for those aged 25-64, the Current Population Survey shows a decline in participation from 50% in 1979 to 42% in 2012. In other words, regardless of the definition, the trend in participation is down. That does not sound "all fine" to me either.

Here I sit filling in my June schedule on the calendar and updating my projects whiteboard and I realized just how much I already have planned for this summer. Then I realized how much of what I did this past Winter and Spring that I never told you about!
I had 4 design in the Spring 2011 Valley Yarns Catalog, the Old Sheldon House Capelet, the Pincushion Moss Shawl, the Carle baby sweater and a collection of Potholders.
Here is the Shawl blocking.
I've also been working on a series of small, round, animal, amigurumi with Webs Design Coordinator Kirsten Hipsky. She does the knit version and I work up the crochet. This project has been, at times, frustrating and hysterically awesome. Wait till you see what we come up with next!
I guess I should tell you a bit about this summer so you can get in on some of it if you're local. I'm teaching another great series of classes at Webs.
We're starting out with a Design your own crochet cowl class that runs for 4 weeks and really gives the students insight into what it takes to design something as simple as a tube! Yarn choice, hook/gauge choice, choosing a stitch pattern or several and deciding on the type of construction: flat and seamed or in the round.
Then we have 3, two week workshops for specialty crochet techniques.
Broom Stick Lace, Hairpin lace and Tunisian or Afghan crochet(which is already full but you could add yourself to the wait list if any seats open up).
As always, if crochet interests you but you've never picked up a hook or its been years since you have, I'll be running the Intensive version of our Crochet 1 class the second week in August.
Today I'm finishing up with some editing of patterns that will be released in the Webs Summer catalog (soon my pretties!) and working out details for some fall classes up at Metaphor Yarns.
What have you been up to? Anything you like to see? Let me know!

Fuel-Cell Electric Vehicles offer long-range all-electric driving with zero emissions.
Fueled by hydrogen, their electricity is generated on demand by a fuel cell rather than power from batteries. Plus, refueling with hydrogen takes just a few minutes.
Fuel-Cell Electric Vehicles can offer over 300+ miles of smooth and quiet all-electric driving, zero tailpipe emissions and a short 3-to 5-minute refueling time.
The fuel cell converts hydrogen into electricity to power the high-torque electric motor. A small onboard battery stores energy during deceleration and braking, adding "free" electrons to the power mix.
With a compact, hydrogen-powered fuel cell and stunning aerodynamic design, the five-passenger Clarity Fuel Cell is a styling, design and packaging concept of our next-generation, zero-emission vehicle with a targeted driving range of over 300+ miles2.
With advanced technology like rechargeable lithium batteries and electric motors providing power to the wheels, modern battery electric vehicles allow for all-electric driving while producing zero tailpipe emissions.
Battery electric vehicles don't use gasoline and have zero tailpipe emissions, which can significantly reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. Plus, it's much cheaper to drive on electricity1.
Battery electric vehicles draw power from rechargeable battery packs, similar to those used in many consumer electronic devices. As battery technology improves, we continue to work toward vehicles with increased driving range and faster recharge times.
With two sources of power, impressive fuel economy and lower emissions, hybrid vehicles are just one of many ways Honda is creating more sustainable transportation.
In addition to savings at the pump, hybrid vehicles can help reduce air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions and dependency on oil.
Hybrid electric vehicles combine an internal combustion engine with an electric motor for higher fuel economy1 and reduced emissions. The onboard battery stores energy generated during braking and deceleration, eliminating the need to plug in and recharge.
The Civic introduces the CVCC engine, a major breakthrough in reducing emissions, lowering vehicle costs and increasing fuel efficiency. CVCC technology was later incorporated in the Accord, Prelude, and CR‑X.
Honda introduces the EV Plus, the first all-electric production vehicle powered by advanced nickel-metal hydride batteries. Innovations such as its electric motor and battery would go on to influence later electric drive vehicles, such as the Insight and FCX Clarity.
The Civic GX (Natural Gas) becomes the first and only fully assembly-line-produced CNG passenger car to run on a very low-emission alternative fuel, helping reduce our dependency on oil as well as fuel costs.
Honda launches the zero-emission FCX Clarity, named "the most important car in 100 years" by Top Gear. Its fuel cell creates electricity by combining oxygen with hydrogen, the most abundant element in the universe.
Honda continues to expand its plug-in offerings with the all-electric Fit EV and Accord Plug-In Hybrid.
Honda and SolarCity® have teamed up to help reduce carbon-dioxide emissions by encouraging the adoption of solar power for homes and plug-in electric vehicles.
Honda Smart Home was developed to showcase our vision for sustainable, low-carbon living and personal transportation.
Our Green Dealer Program helps Honda and Acura dealers measurably reduce the environmental impact of their operations.

There are no official scores yet for the 2004 wines of Angelo Gaja, however, all you need to see is Antonio Galloni's and James Suckling's quotes below and you will want to purchase them...
"In short, it is hard to get excited about the 2003 Barbarescos for many reasons, not the least of which is the phenomenal quality of the 2004s. At virtually every property I visited I had the opportunity to taste the 2004s and simply put, they are remarkable. It is an abundant vintage in both Barolo and Barbaresco but qualityminded producers who diligently limited yields made exceptional wines. As in Barolo, producers in Barbaresco continue to improve through experience and for many estates the 2004s are shaping up to be the best wines they have ever made."-Antonio Galloni, The Wine Advocate
"For all his success, the admirable Angelo Gaja remains fanatically committed to excellence, and because of that he is Piedmont's reference point, as well as an inspiration to many of the young growers just beginning to estate bottle their wines."-Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
"Nebbiolo lovers are going to want to buy 2004. I promise."-James Suckling, The Wine Spectator

MISSISSIPPI STATE, Miss. — Farmers are looking to reduce their 2004 fuel costs by adopting agricultural strategies including new herbicides, transgenic cotton and reduced tillage methods.
Will McCarty, state program leader for agriculture and natural resources with Mississippi State University's Extension Service, said many farmers are using management and technology in place of labor and machinery. One area that benefits greatly is the reduction in fuel needs.
"Researchers were evaluating low-till and no-till practices in the 1980s, but what really enabled growers to convert were new herbicides, new pricing strategies and transgenic cotton," McCarty said. "Modern technology helps reduce trips across the field, and the implements needed require less power and therefore less fuel."
Herb Willcutt, an energy specialist with Mississippi State University's Extension Service, said farmers are facing another planting season with increased fuel costs. As of the first of April, farm fuel prices were running around $1.15 per gallon, compared to prices in the upper-70-cent range a year ago.
"Fuel is a relatively small portion of the overall production costs, but farmers are still looking for ways to reduce the number of trips across each field," Willcutt said. "Global Positioning Systems guidance units will promote fuel savings because there is less swath overlap. GPS units are becoming more affordable as well as more accurate and reliable."
Walton Gresham of Gresham Petroleum in Indianola, Miss., said modern farmers have gotten smarter in their agricultural methods. He said he believes growers have reduced their fuel consumption 30 to 40 percent in the last five years.
"No-till and low-till methods as well as selecting seeds that are resistant to insects or won't be harmed by herbicides are some of the ways growers have reduced the number of trips across the fields," Gresham said. "Newer tractors are also more fuel efficient."
The need for irrigation is one of the biggest factors in fuel use during a year. Irrigation systems run on diesel, propane or electricity.
Jack Sherard, a grower in Coahoma County, said irrigation expenses are largely out of his control. "In a dry season, you have to spend more to run irrigation. We save a lot of money just with timely rains," Sherard said. "Our farm has been increasingly no-till in recent years as we avoid tillage as much as possible. Another thing we do to reduce fuel costs is to run the tractors at the appropriate levels and not wide open."
Willcutt said matching implements to the tractor horsepower as much as possible will help reduce fuel needs.
"When pulling lighter loads, drivers should change to a higher gear and throttle back. At the same time, most engines do not need to operate slower than 1,600 rpm or they will become less efficient," Willcutt said. "They also need to pay attention to machinery maintenance since well maintained equipment operates more efficiently."

The Jets sideline is getting a major makeover.
Head coach Rex Ryan is back, but the team will have three new coordinators. Offensive coordinator Tony Sparano was fired Monday night, defensive coordinator Mike Pettine and the team have decided to part ways and special teams coordinator Mike Westhoff retired at the end of the season.
Secondary coach Dennis Thurman will be the new defensive coordinator, according to a source. Ryan announced assistant special teams coordinator Ben Kotwica will take over for Westhoff.
Ryan was careful not to say anything critical of Sparano, who lasted just one year with the Jets. Under Sparano's watch, the offense finished ranked 30th in the NFL, quarterback Mark Sanchez regressed and the Tim Tebow experiment failed miserably. All of that made the firing seem inevitable.
"I wanted to move this team in a different direction offensively," Ryan said. "[I'm] not saying Tony didn't do a good job because he did a tremendous job and he's a tremendous coach."
Norv Turner and Cam Cameron are the early favorites for the job. A league source said Turner will be nearly impossible for the Jets to get because of their unstable quarterback situation and because Ryan has no long-term security.
Ryan made it clear he wants an "attacking" offense and wants to get away from the "Ground and Pound" philosophy he's preached since taking the job.
"I want to be more of an attack-style team whether it's running the 'pistol', whether it's running different types of offenses," Ryan said. "That's what I'm looking to do. As hard as we are to attack on defense, I want to be the same way on offense. I think that's what, obviously, we're looking for. That's what I'm looking for. I can't wait to get that process started."
Pettine interviewed with the Bills yesterday and is expected to land a defensive coordinator job somewhere. Sources said the relationship between Ryan and Pettine deteriorated over the past year as Ryan took play-calling duties back from Pettine. Ryan also suspected Pettine was leaking stories to the press.
Ryan brought Pettine with him from the Ravens, where he had been the outside linebackers coach. Pettine turned down a contract extension last summer from the Jets, wanting to break away from Ryan to prove he can run his own defense.
"Mike thinks it's best that he go to a different team as a defensive coordinator," Ryan said. "I wish him all the best unless he goes to Buffalo. I love Mike and I respect him."
Thurman did an outstanding job in 2012 with a secondary that missed star Darrelle Revis for most of the season. Cornerback Antonio Cromartie and safety LaRon Landry both made the Pro Bowl on his watch.
Kotwica served as Westhoff's assistant for four seasons after two years as a quality control coach.

I remember my first Halloween costume
My first Halloween costume I was dressed up like a bee. Yes that's right a bee. My father made the costume for me. Dressed me up at the age of one and took me out trick or treating. One year old might be a little young to take out trick or treating but parents love candy too.
Dressing up your children in a Halloween costume can be fun but remember when choosing a costume the child safety should be a part of that decision. By letting the child pick their own costume out makes them feel good and gives them a since of responsibility.
Tips to keeping them safety this Halloween.
- The child should be able to see out any mask eye holes. Not just the front but the peripherally as well. Cut the eye holes to make sure they can see all around them.
- Costumes should be made of flame retardant material. If they are home made, make sure and use either a fire retardant spray or fabric that has been treated with fire retardant.
- Make sure your child id visible to everyone. Use a flash light with brand new batteries, reflective tap on their costume and a light stick to help your child be more visible at night while they are walking around.
- The costume should have comfortable walking shoes and not have anything dangling material that they might trip on. Trips and falls can me the night end before the fun can begin.
- Remember props like swords and knifes need to be flexible. So it will bend if they fall on it.
- Most of the time your child and you go out in a group. Make sure the costume is unique enough to spot them in a crowded.
- Never, ever go into a strangers house or even ring their door for treats unless your parents are with you and say that it's okay.
- Careful when you cross a street. Make sure to look in both directions and make sure that there are no cars coming.
- If it's an older child and they are going out by themselves. Make sure they know the rules and time that trick or treating ends in your city.

I came across this forum from googling about my 1973 Toyota Carina I just got. The previous owner didn't take car of her. I'm new to fixing cars and thought this site would be a good learning tool. I emailed the site administrator, but with no luck. I wanted to nag the site admin. I have patience, so I bought a Haynes repair manual. Something about 80's supra rims appealed to me. On Craigslist was a person parting an 80's supra. Up for sale were rims. I texted the 916 number. It was a great deal. And he claimed to be a reputable person in the sac car community. I know nothing about toyota subculture. Then he texted me his name.....it was Mike. I recognized the name immediately and sent payment thru PayPal. Not only did I pick up my rims, he got me the membership for this community! Very Cool and knowledgeable guy.

Despite outshooting Chicago by a margin of 22-13, the Revs couldn't find an equalizer after Marco Pappa's first-half goal
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Four days ago, the New England Revolution released the unfortunate news that star forward Taylor Twellman had suffered a setback in his quest to return from the head injury he suffered almost two years ago. He was subsequently placed on the season-ending injury list, ending his hopes of taking the field in 2010.
In a frustrating 1-0 loss to the Chicago Fire on Sunday night, it became apparent just what Twellman's absence means to this team.
The Revs certainly could've used Twellman's expertise in front of goal – the 30-year-old leads the Revolution with 101 career regular-season tallies – as they outshot Chicago by a margin of 22-13 but couldn't find the back of the net. While the sides traded chances in the opening 45 minutes, New England was by far the more attack-minded team in the second half while the visitors defended their lead and tried to hit on the counter. Yet despite their superiority in terms of possession, the Revs never seriously turned their pressure into quality scoring chances.
According to head coach Steve Nicol, that lack of class in the attacking third is precisely what prevented the Revolution from obtaining a result on Sunday night.
"The effort, the endeavor, the spirit – you can't fault that," said Nicol. "But in the final third we just don't have the quality required. Tonight, it stares you in the face. The final third – whether it's the final ball, whether it's the finish – we had some chances. Zack (Schilawski) had his header, probably should've scored. Sainey (Nyassi) scuffed a ball wide from the middle of the goal on a free shot at goal. Kheli (Dube) had a chance with a ball in the box. Taking chances like that change the game. You can't fault the effort and the commitment, but the quality at the end is just not there."
Most notable among the Revolution's scoring chances were a pair of headers from Schilawski, the club's leading scorer with five goals on the season. His first effort, in the 24th minute, drifted wide of the left post, while his second attempt in the 36th minute flew over the bar. The wastefulness was out of character for the young striker, who had scored his five goals on just 11 shots entering Sunday night's match.
While the Revs couldn't find the finishing touch in the attacking third, it was one mental letdown on the other side of the ball that led to Chicago's only goal. Guatemalan midfielder Marco Pappa was allowed too much space to set up a long-range drive in the 30th minute, and his rasping effort left returning goalkeeper Matt Reis no chance.
"The goal was a classic case of what some of our problems are at the moment," said Nicol. "That goal is so avoidable, it's frightening. All it takes is a bit of communication to pass a man on, and [Pappa] doesn't get three days to line it up and bury it.
"It's a great finish – Matt's got no chance," he continued. "But it's so avoidable with someone opening the trap. We do ourselves again."
New England's inability to find an equalizer after conceding midway through the first half was not for lack of inventiveness, as Nicol used all three substitutions and made multiple tactical changes in an attempt to level the score.
The moves began at halftime when Kenny Mansally replaced Zak Boggs at left midfield in a straight swap. Still trailing by a goal in the 62nd minute, the tactical transformation went a step further when Dube – a forward – replaced defender Chris Tierney as the Revs went more offensive with a 3-5-2 formation. When that didn't provide an equalizer, Nicol opted for one last move by handing an MLS debut to defensive midfielder Jason Griffiths, pushing Shalrie Joseph into a forward position for the final 10 minutes.
"It was an act of desperation on our part and we tried to pump the ball into the box and create chances, but it just didn't come for us tonight," said Joseph of his late switch into an attacking role. "We got one or two chances in the first half to equalize and we didn't finish, and it comes down to how much we want it right now."
It won't get any easier for the Revs in the coming weeks, as their next two matches present a road trip to face Real Salt Lake (5-0-2 at Rio Tinto Stadium) on July 2 and a home match against the LA Galaxy (10-1-3 overall) on July 10.
With the trip to Salt Lake City planned for midweek because of the Friday night kickoff, the recovery for the Revs will have to be swift.
"I think that everyone needs to take responsibility for themselves, myself included," said midfielder Pat Phelan. "We're not making a whole lot of mistakes, but we're making the same mistakes and each person needs to look at themselves. It just can't happen."
