Eggers and Dittmar win Indiana Farm Bureau Tournament Series/ MARCO Bass Masters crown
WINONA LAKE — North Liberty's Jason Dittmar and teammate Dave Eggers won the Poor Boy's Bass Attack at Winona Lake, and the victory let them capture the season championship for the . Tournament Series by only one point with 454 points.
On a day when the fish were few and far between as only six teams weighed in a fish, Dittmar's and Eggers' four fish weighed 14.90 pounds and was anchored by a 5.39-pound largemouth that took the Travel Tender Bait and Tackle Big Bass Award.
Plymouth's Rich Patton and Knox's Dave Morrow were second with 14.33 pounds. They had the only five fish limit of the tournament and reported that was the only five bites they had all day. Their second place finish gave them third place in the season championship hosted by the MARCO Bass Masters.
Jason Weiricks and Ken Baster of Cromwell only had one fish with eight minutes to go but they caught two more in the final minutes on an umbrella rig to take third place with 10.14 pounds. North Liberty's Andy Buss and Steve Prange were the championship leaders going into the final event but weighed in three fish at 9.10 pounds, and their fourth place finish dropped them to second in the series with 453 points. Rick Rogers and Dan O'Neil used the home waters to their advantage to take fifth place with 3.82 pounds, allowing them to win the Crown Trophy Rookies of the Year Award in 11th place overall for the year.

Sunday December 28, 2008
The Browns are coming off a performance in which they were shutout by the Bengals of all teams... AT HOME! There isn't much to say about this game. The Browns are really playing for pride, and the Steelers will be playing their starters but I would imagine playing not to get hurt.
This is a big rivalry game but considering the two teams are on opposite ends of the spectrum there doesn't seem to be that spark usually there to get you ready for this big matchup. I would imagine this game will be more of a scrimmage for the Steelers to work on a few things before heading into the playoffs. Plus this might be one of those games where the defense can pin back their ears and really go after the Browns as their offense is right near the bottom in the league.
Yes we would like to see a Steelers win because after all it is the Browns and should the Browns win then we'll hear the next 6 months about how the Browns will be contenders for the Super Bowl next year. With that, here are the keys for a Steelers win:
- No turnovers.
- No injuries.
- Get some points on the board and call it day.
Join us this Sunday as we talk about the game and cheer our Steelers to a victory!

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
The Air Defense Command branch of the Israel Air Force held a day-long demonstration of its modern capabilities last week in the southern Negev region.
The event was a commemoration of the 1973 Yom Kippur War, during which the command, then known as the Anti-Aircraft Command, played a major role.
As the military forces of Syria and Egypt pressed their early advantage thanks to a successful surprise attack on the holiest day on the Jewish calendar, the Anti-Aircraft Command managed to down 54 enemy aircraft, allowing the reeling Israeli forces time to recover and regroup for a crushing counter-offensive.
Back then, the soldiers of the Anti-Aircraft Command made due with far more simple weaponry. Today, the Air Defense Command boasts some of the most advanced anti-aircraft and anti-missile technology in the world.
On display last week were the currently-operational Iron Dome, Arrow and Patriot anti-missile systems, as well as the David's Sling system that is still undergoing testing.
The Air Defense Command has seen a major influx in recruits over the past six months, likely thanks to the enormous success of its Iron Dome crews during the last Gaza war. Many Israelis are starting to realize the central importance of a solid air defense in modern warfare, and those developing and manning Israel's ever-improving defensive systems are viewed with great respect.

KUB's role in the community goes beyond providing reliable energy and water utilities. We have a long history of making environmental responsibility a priority.
KUB first began using alternative fuels in the 1970s, for example, by converting some fleet vehicles to compressed natural gas (CNG). KUB plans to double its CNG fleet to approximately 100 vehicles by 2020 and support increased use of this clean fuel with construction of a public CNG fueling station. We provide Green Power through the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), and we serve as a technical resource to help customers reduce their environmental impact and save money.
Today, environmental concerns are more important than ever to KUB and to our customers. Through partnerships with state and local government, such as the City of Knoxville Office of Sustainability, KUB helps educate the community about conservation. And we practice what we preach: KUB employees recycle a variety of materials and make energy conservation a habit.
We all live in this environment together, and we all have a stake in protecting it. We hope this information helps you learn about steps you can take to help keep our beautiful region clean and green. For an update on KUB's environmental efforts and stewardship activities, see our 2017 report.

The Internet has done many things for auto dealers and made more than a few changes to the way they do business.
But while new-car pricing and lead-generation sites like TrueCar.com dominate the headlines, the Internet's bigger threat to dealers' bottom lines may be on the other side of the lot.
Web-savvy consumers armed with smartphones can, in seconds, check current market prices on trade-ins and used-car values, walking out of dealerships whose price sheet can be beat within a few hours' drive.
I know this because I watched my 77-year-old father do it last week. On Tuesday, after months of searching, he test drove a 2010 Lincoln MKS sedan from a traditional dealership within 10 miles of his home and from a sales rep he has known for more than a dozen years.
After deciding he liked the car -- but not necessarily the color or the price -- he turned to AutoTrader.com to see what else was out there.
On Thursday, he drove 240 miles round-trip to pick up an identically equipped MKS with similar miles. He made the drive not because the color was more to his liking but because the whole deal saved him more than $7,000 over what the local traditional dealership said was its best offer.
In many ways, auto dealerships have always reminded me of church parishes in the way they have traditionally done business: They count on the local geography to supply enough demand for products to keep them in business.
Margins -- OK, I admit that it's probably slightly sacrilegious to talk about margins in relationship to religion, but stay with me -- were flexible because of limited competition. And a higher margin could be justified with additional services. Keep the locals happy, and they'll return for service and to make future purchases, right?
But the Internet is transforming that model into something more regional, or perhaps national: If all dealerships are eager to service any customers, the "parish" experience that kept vehicle purchasing local won't be able to survive.
Used-vehicle pricing, both in trades and in sales, used to be the most flexible and lucrative part of an auto dealership. That's not the case anymore, and the quicker those "traditional" dealers come to that realization, the more likely they are to survive.

|Like asparagus, tulips are only available for a short season.
|Tulips are edible, Narcissus, and jonquils are NOT.
|The top flower is perfect for picking.
However, choose any color you have on hand. And just what are you going to do with them, you may wonder? You're going to prepare them and stuff them with something salad-like.
Pick tulips in the morning, when the flower has recently opened. While tulip flowers last for several days, it when they have recently opened that they are best to use. Why? The flavor is best then, and the petals remain attached to the stem best then, as well.
Lightly rinse the tulip flower, then gently reach into the center and remove the center parts - the stamen and pistil. You could leave those in, but you'll have pollen on the food you are adding, so I like to take those parts out (they just snap off easily).
|Remove the center stamen and little pistils around it.
Long Creek Chicken Salad
You can use either chicken breasts for this, or turkey.
6 cups diced, cooked chicken or turkey, mostly white meat
2 cups celery, medium-diced
4 scallions (or about 1/8 cup diced fresh chives)
2 tablespoons fresh garlic chives, chopped fine
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped fine
1/2 cup (or a 5 ounce can) water chestnuts, coarsely chopped
2 teaspoons fresh sweet marjoram, finely chopped (or 1/2 tsp. poultry seasoning)
1 cup pecans, toasted
1 cup (approx) seedless white grapes, cut in half
4 red radishes, sliced or coarsely diced
3/4 cup (approx.) Hellmann's mayonnaise (enough to moisten the salad)
Salt and pepper to taste
Combine ingredients, mixing well. Add more mayo if needed. Refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Stuff about 1/2 cup into each whole tulip flower. Serve stuffed tulip on its side, on a lettuce leaf with your favorite cracker (or...make one from my book: Homemade Crackers with Herbs). Watch my cracker video for cracker inspiration. Enjoy spring and eat more tulips!

Additional features of the 252 include a large digital display and a built-in digital timer menu for setting standard wire feed run-in, shielding gas pre/post flow, and wire burnback. An angled dual-gear system with a spring-loaded drive-roll assembly makes for easy wire changes, toolless drive-roll changeover, and convenient drive-roll storage.

If you've been following our FJ Cruiser buildup in recent issues, you will agree with us that the FJ can go virtually anywhere the wheels are pointed. With this said, one of the major contributing factors to having a vehicle go where it's driven is the quality of its underbody protection. The new All-Pro Off-Road heavy-duty transfer-case skidplate is an example of one additional layer of protection to an FJ's underbelly. The skidplate is made from a solid piece of 10-gauge, cold-rolled steel plate that is mated to a piece of 1.5-inch, 0.120-wall, round steel tubing that, when installed, extends to the framerails with the supplied bolt-on backing plates. This innovative design allows for any impacts to be evenly distributed to the frame of the FJ rather than to its transfer case.

Each drawer is locked using Tuffy's patented Pry-Guard II locking system, which features a 10-tumbler, double-bitted mechanism and heavy-duty latch. An industry first, the drawers may also be elevated up to 4 inches should a storage pocket be desired under them.

In the past, whenever installing an onboard air system that would support both air lockers and inflation duties for all four tires, there had to be ample space within your ride to accommodate both the compressor and required air tank.

Designed to operate ARB air-locking differentials as well as to increase the inflation time on large tires, the CKMA12 compressor is the most high-flowing compressor available on the market with its 50-percent duty cycle at a flow of 2.5 cfm. The unit is also one of the most compact units on the market as well.

text: Description Many species of rabbits and hares live throughout the Nearctic region of the world. Some of the most common species include the brush, eastern cottontail, and desert cottontail rabbits, while prevalent hares include the black-tailed and white-tailed jackrabbits. Rabbits can become nuisances to gardeners and farmers because they feed on a wide variety of crop plants. Infestations of rabbits should be seen to immediately, as the mammal reproduces quickly and populations easily get out of hand. Appearance Female rabbits are larger than males and jackrabbits are typically larger than cottontails. These animals range in size from 1 to 7 pounds (up to 3 kg) and grow between 12 to 21 inches (30 to 53 cm) long. Many species of rabbits have different coats during winter than they do during summer for camouflage purposes, and fur coloration can be brown and white, gray and white, brown and gray, and entirely white. All rabbits have long ears and strong hind legs suitable for hopping. More info about what rabbits look like. Habitat Rabbits are found in various habitats and at many different elevations throughout Canada, the United States, and some parts of Mexico. The mammals show preference for nesting in meadows, orchards, farmlands, bushes, and open forests but are also found in swamps, riverside thickets, bogs, and deserts. Entry Are rabbits known to enter homes or yards? The diets of rabbits often lead them into residential areas such as lawns and gradens. As they prey on beans, beets, broccoli, carrots, lettuce, peas, apples, various berries, citrus trees, plums, cilantro, parsley, flowering plants, shrubs, trees, and turf, rabbits are frequently found on farms, in lawns, and other places where human activities offer them access to vegetation. Though they do not typically enter homes unless kept as domestic pets, rabbits will burrow under porches, decks, and barns if suitable openings are present. Rabbits in garage What noises do they make? Damage Do rabbits harm people or property? Though they are not the most immediate disease-carrying threat to humans, rabbits can spread tularemia, or rabbit fever, to people who handle infected rabbits with bare hands or eat underprepared rabbit meat. Additionally, rabbits can host fleas and ticks and contribute to the spread of Lyme disease. The bulk of rabbit destruction, however, is consequence of their feeding habits. Rabbits nibble on a number of plants and crops that would otherwise be harvested for human consumption. Depending on the size of rabbit infestations, their consumption of vegetation may remain harmless and innocuous. Where infestations become too large in size, rabbits can devastate the health of trees, plants, and turf. Control and Safety Modifying yards to make them less favorable to rabbits both in terms of food and shelter is a fairly effective form of population control. Fencing in gardens, orchards, and similarly tempting landscapes is a long-term solution that proves particularly effective, though individuals must make sure fencing extends far enough into the ground to prevent rabbits from digging their way under. Holes in the foundation of sheds, barns, porches, decks, and patios should be sealed to prevent rabbits from nesting, as well. What to do if you find a dead rabbit. Trapping and Removal If rabbit infestations get out of hand, landowners should call Critter Control specialists to deal with the problem. Since rabbits are wild animals who may bite or scratch when they feel threatened, approaching them without the proper training is dangerous. The professionals at Critter Control have knowledge of rabbit behavior, abundant tools, and certifications that allow them to deal with infestations humanely and safely. We can help you get rid of rabbit problems. Call today: 1.800.274.8837.

Science Scoops: Scientists Turn Down the Heat
by Stephen James O'Meara
Are you someone who likes to blame the oil and gas industries for global warming? Well, sit down, because you may not like this new, albeit controversial, news.
According to a report in New Scientist magazine, "oil and gas will run out too fast for doomsday global warming scenarios to materialize."
In other words, all of Earth's oil and gas reserves will be burned before there is enough carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to cause the most horrific scenarios envisioned by global warming proponents—namely scorching temperatures and melting polar caps.
In fact, geologists Kjell Aleklett, Anders Sivertsson, and Colin Campbell (Uppsala University in Uppsala, Sweden) predict that Earth's oil supplies could be fully consumed as early as 2010; and our gas supplies, they say, will evaporate shortly after that.
But Nebojsa Nakicenovic, an energy economist at the University of Vienna in Austria, believes that the Swedish geologists are being too conservative in their estimates of Earth's gas and oil supplies. Not only that, he warns, but "there's a huge amount of coal underground that could be exploited."
Burning coal would be worse for the environment than burning oil or gas. Coal produces more CO2 for each unit of energy, as well as releases large amounts of particulates into the atmosphere. If we do ultimately replace oil and gas with coal, Aleklett admits that the global warming doomsday scenarios would come true. Switching from oil to coal, he says, would be disastrous.
- controversial: Producing or being marked by a dispute.
- doomsday: Inevitable destruction or ruin.
- global warming: An increase in the average temperature of the Earth's atmosphere.
- particulate: A separate particle.
- scenario: A model of an expected sequence of events.
- What do you think would happen if we used up all of the oil and gas resources on the planet in the next thirty years? How do you think life would be different than it is today? How might transportation change? How might homes and buildings be different? Write a paragraph exploring how daily life might change if we used up all of the oil and natural gas on the planet.

Editor's note: A nationally syndicated columnist, Roland S. Martin is the author of "Listening to the Spirit Within: 50 Perspectives on Faith" and "Speak, Brother! A Black Man's View of America." Visit his Web site for more information.
Roland S. Martin says more use should be made of the prestige and contacts of former U.S. presidents.
(CNN) -- Much has been made of the involvement of former President Bill Clinton in the freeing of two Current TV journalists held in North Korea and facing 12 years of hard labor.
But considering that American taxpayers continue to pay for their office space, security detail and other perks of the office of a former president, why not put Jimmy Carter, George H.W. Bush, Clinton and George W. Bush to work for the good of the country?
There seems to be a tradition in this country of former presidents spending their time giving speeches, raising money for their presidential libraries, writing their memoirs and staying out of the way of the current occupant of the White House.
I get that. You had your shot and you want the new person to have their day in the sun and do it that way. Yet letting that experience and solid relationships go to waste makes no sense to me.
I strongly believe one of the mistakes President George W. Bush made when he was in the White House was not pulling his father, President George H.W. Bush, into the mix to help build an international alliance when he chose to go to war in Iraq. When asked, he said he consulted a higher power -- God -- as opposed to his dad.
We've seen former President Jimmy Carter travel around the world, overseeing elections in various hot spots, and bringing his credibility to bear on some of the most critical issues the world has faced.
President George W. Bush did tap former presidents Clinton and George H.W. Bush to lead the fundraising effort for the rebuilding of the Gulf Coast after Hurricane Katrina.
Although not presidents, when Navy pilot, Lt. Robert Goodman, was being held in Syria in 1983, the Rev. Jesse Jackson Sr. led a delegation of ministers and others to help free him. President Ronald Reagan was none too happy to see Jackson go, but the nation was grateful when he returned with our soldier.
During the 1980s, President Reagan didn't have a lot of goodwill among Latin American leaders. But Speaker of the House Jim Wright did. And instead of focusing on the left and the right, they put their energy into what is good for the United States of America.
We have enough egos in Congress and Washington. President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton should be commended for remaining in the background and working the back channels to free the two female journalists in North Korea. And when the pictures were beamed back to America, it was Bill Clinton getting all of the attention, and that was deserved. But it also was important for the focus to remain on the women involved and not the players involved.
So what do we learn at this teachable moment? We learn politicians and public policy advocates need to put aside the silliness we see every day and realize that people who might have their differences can come together on common purposes.
Who in the world thought that the Rev. Al Sharpton, former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg could sit in the White House together and join hands on the issue of education? We need more partnerships like that. We need leaders who put the common good ahead of their own self-interest.
With all of the trouble spots in the world, and the enormous issues we face, it's not just about what President Obama, Secretary Clinton and others are doing. Folks, this is all hands on deck. Anybody and everybody can make a contribution to make this a better world. We just need the courage to ask.
The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Roland S. Martin.

Fast, accurate GitHub Flavored Markdown parser and renderer https://github.com/kivikakk/cmark-gfm-hs
|Version on this page:
|LTS Haskell 13.8:
|Stackage Nightly 2019-02-23:
|Latest on Hackage:
This package provides Haskell bindings for libcmark-gfm, the reference parser for GitHub Flavored Markdown, a fully specified variant of Markdown. It includes sources for libcmark-gfm and does not require prior installation of the C library.
cmark provides the following advantages over existing Markdown libraries for Haskell:
Speed: cmark can render a Markdown version of War and Peace in the blink of an eye. Conversion speed is on par with the sundown library, though we were unable to benchmark precisely, because sundown raised a malloc error when compiled into our benchmark suite. Relative to other Haskell Markdown libraries: cmark was 82 times faster than cheapskate, 59 times faster than markdown, 105 times faster than pandoc, and 3 times faster than discount.
Memory footprint: Memory footprint is on par with sundown. On one sample, the library uses a fourth the memory that markdown uses, and less than a tenth the memory that pandoc uses.
Robustness: cmark can handle whatever is thrown at it, without the exponential blowups in parsing time that sometimes afflict other libraries. (The input
bench/full-sample.md, for example, causes both pandoc and markdown to grind to a halt.) libcmark-gfm has been extensively fuzz-tested.
Accuracy: cmark passes the CommonMark spec's suite of over 600 conformance tests.
Standardization: Since there is a spec and a comprehensive suite of tests, we can have a high degree of confidence that any two CommonMark implementations will behave the same. Thus, for example, one could use this library for server-side rendering and commonmark.js for client-side previewing.
Multiple renderers. Output in HTML, groff man, LaTeX, CommonMark, and a custom XML format is supported. And it is easy to write new renderers to support other formats.
Ease of installation: cmark is portable and has minimal dependencies.
cmark does not provide Haskell versions of the whole libcmark-gfm
API, which is built around mutable
cmark_node objects. Instead, it
provides functions for converting CommonMark to HTML (and other
formats), and a function for converting CommonMark to a
tree that can be processed further using Haskell.
A note on security: This library does not attempt to sanitize
HTML output. We recommend using xss-sanitize to filter the output,
or enabling
optSafe to filter out all raw HTML and potentially
dangerous URLs.
A note on stability: There is a good chance the API will change significantly after this early release.

text: The Catcat of Cancan January 8, 2013 by Bethany Karn 32 Kittehs! You know how evabuddy is always asking me, "Sparky! How did you ever get so graceful?" or, "Sparky, wow! Are you a high-stepping prancer or what?!" or "Sparky! you ought to be on stage, you know?" Well, yes. We all know. But now we know why. Thanks to my friends at the Etsy shop, Max and the Animals, I have more photographic evidences of my famous relatives! Here is my great great great great great aunt Minnie, star of stage and screen, performing at La Scala, where she got many a starched shirt collar in a bunch with her famous rendition of the Cancan dance. Teh starched stuffed shirts wanted Opera. They got, instead, the avante-garde de danse; Le Catcat Cancan. She was renowned for her ability to kick like a rabbit, to leap over the other dancers, climb the stage curtains, do a backwards somersault and a pirouette in mid air, land in the splits and then flick hats off of audience members' heads with her tail. She was a phenomenon, but she had to overcome many critics and nay-sayers who got in the way of her dreams. There is in an early illustration, by the great Cancan connoisseur himself, Henri de Toulouse Lautrec, called "Le Secret." She is listening to the advice of her own Mrs. Whatsername who, like many many grumpy and frumpy Mrs. W.'s before and since, tried to talk her out of dancing-fool dreams. "No Brass Rings for you, Little Lady," she is saying to my Aunt Minnie. "and stop wasting time day-dreaming about being famous. No one needs a Dancing Cat. I need you here to catch mouses. Very dull, very slow moving mouses. The house is full of 'em. Now, get to work." To which Auntie Minnie very wisely said, "talk to teh tail," and left. The rest, as they say, is history. Aunt Minnie's story was later picked up by Hollywood, of course. Her name was changed to Mewsette and she was turned into an innocent helpless fluffy white kitteh – all her dashing tiger stripes and devil-may-care Tabby Cat flair white-washed out of her. A pity, of course, but what can you expect from Hollywood of the mid-twentieth century? But try as they might – they can't white-wash out this: I give you my own High Prancing Devil May Care Dance. Vive La Danse!

ALBANY, N.Y. — A court says it's no longer slander in New York to falsely call someone gay.
A mid-level appeals court on Thursday wiped out decades of rulings, including its own, to say that society no longer treats false comments that someone is gay, lesbian or bisexual as defamation. Without defamation, there is no longer slander, the court ruled.
"These appellate division decisions are inconsistent with current public policy and should no longer be followed," stated the unanimous decision written by Justice Thomas Mercure of the Appellate Division's Third Department based in Albany. While the decision sets new case law in New York now, it could still go to a definitive ruling by the state's highest court, the Court of Appeals.
The New York decision finds that the comment is now "based on a false premise that it is shameful and disgraceful to be described as lesbian, gay or bisexual."
The ruling stems from an incident in the Binghamton area. Mark Yonaty sued, claiming a woman spread a rumor she heard in hopes that Yonaty's girlfriend would break up with him. He said the comment hurt and ultimately destroyed the relationship. Yonaty and his attorney didn't respond to a request for comment. The decision, as in many defamation suits, provides few details.
With Thursday's decision and similar ones in several other states, calling someone gay is eliminated as defamation, just as being called black is no longer grounds for slander, said Jonathan L. Entin, law and political science professor at Case Western Reserve University Law School in Ohio.
"It doesn't mean this is the universal view of the country," he said. "The traditional view of being called gay was like being called an evil person. The state of public opinion has changed, but there are still people who feel that way."
In that way, he said, New York's decision may reflect society more than changing civil law. He noted that few slander suits over name-calling get to court, partly because filing a legal action makes the claim more public. Jay Blotcher is a longtime gay rights activist from the Hudson Valley who sees pockets of tolerance in urban areas but says the revelation that you're gay can get you "something akin to a lynching mob" in other parts of the country.
"It's still a thorny issue," Blotcher said. "Bottom line, just because you have gay characters on television that make everybody laugh doesn't mean that the entire country embraces gay people as equal citizens yet."


text: From November 15 until December 21, 1864, Union General William T. Sherman led some 60,000 soldiers on a 285-mile march from Atlanta to Savannah, Georgia. The purpose of Sherman's March to the Sea was to frighten Georgia's civilian population into abandoning the Confederate cause. Sherman's soldiers did not destroy any of the towns in their path, but they stole food and livestock and burned the houses and barns of people who tried to fight back. The Yankees were "not only fighting hostile armies, but a hostile people," Sherman explained; as a result, they needed to "make old and young, rich and poor, feel the hard hand of war."

Several weeks into Louisiana's sugarcane harvest, there are reports of good yields but lower sugar content.
"People may remember, though, we began the crop in rainy conditions," says Ben Legendre, LSU AgCenter sugarcane specialist. "As a result, we had some low sugar yields at the factory.
"Then, when the weather improved (the second week of October), the cane crop looked better. I visited a few mills last week and found throughput to be outstanding. In some cases, the mills couldn't get enough cane. They were processing and grinding so well there wasn't enough in reserve."
Before the latest rains, several mills reported sugar yields had increased to over 220 pounds per ton. To have an 11 percent recovery in mid-October is "very good."
That has led many millers to be optimistic that this will be a very good cane crop. Growers are also happy that field yields are improving.
"I was just speaking with an Extension agent from Assumption Parish. Over there, field yields are comparable to last year — and they had some of the best in the state. So, they're looking at a 35- or 36-ton crop. That's outstanding."
If such yields were seen statewide, Louisiana cane could have the second best crop ever.
"Right now, it's hard to make many definite statements. We'll be harvesting and working mills until the end of December or early January. "
Most growers are pleased with yields of long-popular LCP85384 (better known as 384) in both tons and sugar-per-acre. And they're "very enthusiastic" about the yields of the new varieties (see http://deltafarmpress.com/news/070613-sugarcane-varieties/index.html).
One of the new varieties, L 97-128, considered early-maturing and high in sugar "didn't mature as well as folks would like. But one of the mills began grinding in mid-September. All of the mills but one had begun grinding by the end of September."
Traditionally, the industry didn't begin sugar harvest until Oct. 15. "That puts a lot of pressure on plant breeders to provide varieties that can mature in September and yet have decent yields in tons of cane."
Most growers are still using glyphosate as a ripener to enhance sucrose content. "Basically all the cane harvested in the first month is treated with glyphosate. It's applied at a sub-lethal dose to regulate plant growth. It allows the plant to stop adding height and concentrate on sucrose."
How did the crop do with disease and pests this season? "Many thought we'd have problems with sugarcane borer, our major insect pest. But we had ideal conditions during the growing season. Typically, when you have rain like we did this past year, the varieties we're growing are very susceptible to that pest."
For a long while cane was gaining as much as 1.5 inches of growth per day. Yet very little insecticide was used and a number of growers used no insecticides at all.
As for diseases, about 45 to 50 percent of Louisiana cane is LCP 85-384, which is supposed to be very susceptible to rust. In fact, that disease is one of the main reasons why growers have switched to other varieties, says Legendre.
"Well, it turned out, at the beginning of the season we did see rust in 384 and Ho 95-988, but in the final tally, the rust threat faded. Weather warmed up early and the rust wasn't as big a problem."
Researchers have found that where rust comes in early in 384 and 988 and stays through mid-summer, as much as 7 tons of cane per acre can be lost. But by June 15, the rust epidemic had faded.
"We visited fields that had been hit early on, but the disease more or less took care of itself. The warmer temperatures and growth of the cane worked in tandem to deal with it."
Working cooperatively, the LSU AgCenter, the USDA-ARS, SRRC, Sugarcane Research Laboratory and the American Sugar Cane League released a new sugarcane variety this year: HoCP 00-950. "It's the sixth variety we've released in the last four years. Those releases are aimed at providing growers more varietal options after 384 had been planted on 92 percent of our acreage."
The new varieties are comparable, if not better, than 384 in sugar content. In fact, two of the last varieties released could be as much as 20 to 30 percent better than 384, which has been outstanding in its own right.

The Poynter Institute drastically overreacts. Thurs., November 10, 2011
By Rem Rieder Rem Rieder (email@example.com) is AJR's editor and senior vice president.
I'm having a little trouble getting worked up over this Romenesko "scandal."
The Poynter Institute is hanging its groundbreaking media blogger/aggregator out to dry over the question of inadequate attribution.
It seems Jim Romenesko hasn't always been scrupulous about using quotation marks when summarizing articles he was linking to.
Technically, he should have, and Poynter is right to change the practice. But there's no real sin here.
Romenesko has always been conscientious about giving credit, about citing sources, about linking without giving away the whole story, as other aggregators are known to do. Until the site's format changed in recent months as Romenesko's role began to shrink in advance of his semi-retirement at the end of the year and others began posting, his summaries were paragons of concision.
There was no intent to fool anyone. He made eminently clear where the material was coming from.
In her post on the situation, Poynter Online Director and Publications Director Julie Moos was careful to avoid accusing Romenesko of plagiarism. And when he offered to resign, she wisely refused to accept.
But the tenor and length of her post clearly suggested that something sinister was afoot.
Consider the top:
"Poynter.org works hard to meet the highest standards of journalism excellence, and I learned late Wednesday that we have not consistently met those standards.
"A centerpiece of our editorial work has been the Romenesko blog, which invented a form of aggregation that is widely and deservedly respected. It is also imperfect.
"Thanks to the sharp eye of Erika Fry, an assistant editor at the Columbia Journalism Review, I now know that Jim Romenesko's posts exhibit a pattern of incomplete attribution."
The portentous, not to say sanctimonious, tone clearly indicates that major skulduggery has been uncovered.
Or the kicker:
"We are in uncharted territory, marked by uncertainty, which suggests caution. We will continue to evaluate this situation and to be as transparent as possible about what we learn and decide.
"You can and should draw your own conclusions."
Was there really a need for all of this self-righteous melodrama?
All that had to happen was a brief disclosure that Romenesko, while making clear the source of some material, sometimes hadn't used quotation marks in the past. He would do so in the future. End of story.
Romenesko has linked to countless AJR stories over the years. I've never had a complaint about how he has handled them. With one exception. Sometimes when linking to a serious piece of media analysis, Jim would highlight the 35th paragraph because it had this really sexy quote. That would attract eyeballs, but it would sometimes do a disservice to the thrust of the piece.
Of course, there's another way of looking at it. As Reuters media writer Jack Shafer tweeted today, "The only unusual thing I ever noticed abt @romenesko's summaries of my pieces: He always found my misplaced ledes."
There's no doubt that Jim Romenesko put Poynter on the map as an online destination. One of the smartest things former Poynter President Jim Naughton and ex-Poynter online honcho (and now faculty member) Bill Mitchell did was hire Romenesko to do for Poynter what he previously had been doing as a hobby.
He doesn't deserve to be treated this way.

For about a month, an assistant McDonald's manager and her reputed boyfriend planned an inside job to rob the fast food restaurant at 300 Plymouth Ave., according to court documents.
The manager, Jennifer Paige, 28, allegedly took pictures of deposit slips that showed how much money was being deposited into the restaurant's safe every day. She shared those pictures with her alleged boyfriend, Elvis Burgos, 33, and his 14-year-old son, Joshua Burgos, according to court documents.
For about a month, an assistant McDonald's manager and her reputed boyfriend planned an inside job to rob the fast food restaurant at 300 Plymouth Ave., according to court documents.
The manager, Jennifer Paige, 28, allegedly took pictures of deposit slips that showed how much money was being deposited into the restaurant's safe every day. She shared those pictures with her alleged boyfriend, Elvis Burgos, 33, and his 14-year-old son, Joshua Burgos, according to court documents.
The elder Burgos allegedly looked for someone to rob the McDonald's, but — when he could not find anyone suitable — he chose to have his young son commit the crime, according to police reports in Fall River District Court.
"(Expletive) it. Joshua can do it," Elvis Burgos allegedly said, according to statements given to Fall River police this week by Rayniel Golay, 22, a Fall River man charged with witness intimidation and assault with a dangerous weapon after allegedly threatening a victim in the March 13 robbery.
Fall River police issued arrest warrants this week for Elvis Burgos, of 578 Second St., and Paige, of 912 Plymouth Ave., charging them with armed robbery, conspiracy to commit armed robbery and contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
As of Friday evening, Burgos and Paige had not been arrested on those warrants, but both were previously arraigned on witness intimidation charges stemming from the robbery investigation.
On March 13, just after 5:30 a.m., Joshua Burgos was arrested near the McDonald's, a few minutes after the robbery. Police said he was the young man who had entered the restaurant through an open side door, pointed a silver, .38-caliber handgun at a female shift manager, pistol-whipped her in the face and ordered her to take him to the safe.
A half-hour before the robbery, Paige had appeared at the McDonald's, almost a full hour before she was scheduled to work. She told the shift manager that she had difficulty sleeping. She stayed in the restaurant for about 10 minutes, then left, telling the manager that she had to wake up her children and would be back by 6 a.m., according to a report by Fall River police Officer Rory McCoomb.
The shift manager later told police that Paige had texted her around 3:16 a.m. and 4:12 a.m., and had also called the restaurant to ask who was working. The manager also told police that she believed Paige had opened the rear side door that was normally locked at that time, according to court documents.
Ten minutes after Paige left, a dark Nissan Maxima — usually driven by Elvis Burgos — pulled into the drive-through window. The manager said she did not recognize the driver, who ordered a drink, but saw a man she knew as "Ray" — allegedly Golay, a reputed friend of Elvis Burgos — sitting in the backseat, giving her a "cold stare," according to court documents.
Six minutes after the Maxima drove off, Joshua Burgos allegedly entered the McDonald's, wearing a ski mask and brandishing a handgun. According to what Golay told police, Joshua Burgos, after leaving the McDonald's, was supposed to have been picked up by his father at the nearby Stop & Shop supermarket on Rodman Street.
Paige had also allegedly given Joshua Burgos a watch with a set 2-minute timer so that he would know when to leave the restaurant, according to court documents.
Instead, the responding police officers stopped Joshua Burgos when they saw him running in the area. He was found to be in possession of a duffle bag, which contained a loaded .38-caliber firearm, cash and clothing allegedly worn during the robbery, police said.
The shift manager identified Joshua Burgos as the gunman who robbed her. He was ordered held without bail after a March 21 dangerousness hearing in Fall River Juvenile Court.
Joshua Burgos is charged with masked and armed robbery, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, carrying an illegal firearm, carrying a loaded illegal firearm and the use of a firearm in the commission of a felony. He is being prosecuted as a youthful offender, which means that his case will be handled with the same rules — and potential criminal sentences — as an adult's case.
Four days after the robbery, on March 17, Golay allegedly approached the McDonald's shift manager outside a house on Morgan Street. The victim said he arrived in the Maxima, pointed a silver gun at her and said, "You know who I am. You know what I'm about. Don't talk to the cops," according to court documents.
Golay, of 364 Hope St., was arraigned Thursday in Fall River District Court on charges of witness intimidation and assault with a dangerous weapon. He was released on personal recognizance and ordered to stay away from the McDonald's and the alleged victims and witnesses, and to report to a probation officer twice a week.
On March 19, Elvis Burgos allegedly drove to the McDonald's on Plymouth Avenue and approached the shift manager, who was outside smoking a cigarette. She said he pleaded with her to tell police that his son was a "good kid" and not involved in the robbery, according to court documents.
"Please, please go to the police and tell them it was not my son," Elvis Burgos allegedly told the manager, who later told police that he lost his temper and said: "That's my son. You'll do this. That's my son, do you understand?"
Police charged Elvis Burgos with witness intimidation. Prosecutors moved to have him detained without bail during a dangerousness hearing on Tuesday, but a judge declined to hold him and ordered that Burgos stay away from the McDonald's and the alleged victims and witnesses, and to report weekly to a probation officer.
Paige was released on personal recognizance after being arraigned Wednesday on a witness intimidation charge. Paige allegedly told police that she and Elvis Burgos were friends, but she refused to answer questions if they were dating. The shift manager had told police that Paige and Elvis Burgos dated, and that Paige had told her that she was pregnant with his child, according to court documents.
Investigators asked Paige why she was seen driving Burgos' Maxima on March 18, to which Paige allegedly said Burgos' wife had let her use the vehicle, according to court documents.
Burgos' wife later told police officers that she did not know Paige until the day they questioned her. The officers also informed her of the alleged relationship between her husband and Paige, according to court documents.
Meanwhile, Elvis Burgos has another pending case in Fall River District Court in which he is charged with witness intimidation, reckless endangerment of a child, assault, enticing a child under 16 and threats to commit a crime.
On March 6, Elvis Burgos allegedly yelled at a middle-school-age child in Fall River, calling him obscenities and daring him to fight his other son in school. The child, according to police reports, told a school administrator that Elvis Burgos threatened to beat up his family and warned him, "We're from New York. We don't take (expletive) from anyone."

With that out of the way, Oregon State Wednesday announced they have reached an agreement on a future home-and-home series with San Jose State. The Beavers will host the Spartans Sept. 15, 2015, in Corvallis, then travel to San Jose for a rematch Sept. 9, 2020.
The 2015 meeting will be the first for the two programs since Oct. 4, 1997. That year marked Mike Riley's first season with the Beavers.
The press release announcing the home-and-home series noted that "[t]he 2015 non-conference schedule is tentatively complete with games also scheduled Sept. 5 at home vs. Weber State and Sept. 12 at Michigan." Why the word "tentatively" was used is unclear.

Jane Fonda and Pitbull joined the celebrities on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Thursday as Jennifer Lopez unveiled the fabled sidewalk's 2,500th star.
The singer/actress fought back tears as she listened to tributes from her Monster-in-Law co-star Fonda and pop pal Pitbull, as well as manager Benny Medina, director Gregory Nava and comedian Keenen Ivory Wayans, and then addressed thousands of fans who had gathered to witness the ceremony.
Lopez, wearing a white top and billowing coral skirt, was briefly left speechless as aides scurried to get her written induction speech to her and she kept halting her comments to utter, "I'm not gonna cry," while fanning her face with her hand.
She said, "This all feels kinda surreal… I'm a lucky girl. My dream was always to entertain… I just wanted to be good at what I did."
She then paid tribute to the women who inspired her: Bette Midler, Fonda, Rita Moreno and Sophia Loren, who unveiled the 2,000th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame back in 1994, before adding, "This landmark moment inspires me to work harder and dream bigger."
Paying tribute to the actress/singer, her longtime manager Medina said, "Jenny From the Block has a new address… on the boulevard of dreams," and called Lopez "the girl of my dreams, the princess of my fairytales".
Meanwhile, Pitbull revealed he is a student of his friend and collaborator, stating, "I learn from her, I study her… I absorb and apply."
He added, "She gets a star 'cause she shines like one."
Fonda wrapped up the tributes by telling the crowd, "She should have an entire block of stars," revealing that pretending to hate her in the film Monster-in-Law was "the hardest acting job I ever had," and admitting they became fast friends on the set even though J.Lo "cut my eyebrow with her diamond ring".
Lopez then posed by her new star with her famous friends, family members and twin children Emme and Max, who seemed reluctant to leave his mum's side and kept trying to dash back into shot as the hitmaker posed alone by her plaque.

Dismembered photographs by luminaries such as Cindy Sherman, Corinne Day and Juergen Teller feature in rising photo-artist Melinda Gibson's new series of visual remixes. Sourcing her material from curator Charlotte Cotton's book The Photograph as Contemporary Art, Gibson cut up and rearranged images from some of photography's greatest figures into multilayered compositions to explore the circulation and canonization of iconic images. "When working with such profound imagery, cutting into them isn't any easy task," admits Gibson, who has been commissioned by Yohji Yamamoto to create a series remixing its entire archive for the 40th anniversary of Y's. "But what you gain is a greater understanding of how these images were composed and why they have become so prominent." In collaboration with design studio Kummer & Herrman, Gibson has turned the project into a conceptual book project. Uniquely, the series of collages and their accompanying text have been printed as stickers, which Gibson then fixes into the book by hand. Each of the editions takes the artist around three hours to complete, and is numbered with the exact time and date of completion. The first edition of Amsterdam's much-anticipated Unseen Photo Fair will play host to a performance-led launch of the new book with Gibson laying bare the painstaking process by constructing one live.

Constructed on the edge of an uphill where it faces the panoramic valley, changing many shades of color and depth of far-off mountains with the rising and setting sun. This homestay is one of the most beautiful abode which people can only dream of situated in the upper reaches of Himachal Pradesh. This homestay at Matiana is at a height of about 8,000 feet from the sea level. It is about 45 kilometers ahead of Shimla, bypassing Sanjauli, Kufri, Fagu and Theog-on way to Narkanda which is some 15 kilometers ahead of the homestay. The host is staying in the homestay with his wife Shobhana Kishore. After many years of professional work, Krish decided to get settled in his father's home in Matiana where he loves to take care of his home and the Apple Orchard around the house.
Krish takes immense satisfaction in taking care of his guests and making them feel at home. His warm and generous nature influence many interesting conversations on life, local lifestyle, current affairs, etc., while enjoying morning breakfast on the terrace or while sipping the evening tea. Shobhana, on the other hand makes sure that the guest is served the best cuisine of his/her choice by working with the locally employed staff from the village. Being an amazing cook she makes sure that the guests taste both regional and other wise popular specialty dishes. The house is well-maintained to provide for a comfortable stay in the usually cold weather. All the rooms are spacious, rugged and tastefully draped to provide for maximum comfort with modernly equipped attached bathrooms.
The main attraction of the homestay is its huge terrace which gives a wide view of the valley around. It has a seating arrangement with chairs and sun-block umbrellas where one can bask in the morning sun or gaze at the clear sky full of stars at night. Another interesting area of the homestay is the recreation room, where one can indulge in indoor games like table tennis and carom or just pick up a book for quick reading from the mini-library.
The orchard around the house has benches painted in bright red, yellow and green which tempt one to spend quality time alone with a loved one or a favorite book. Get lost in the lap of nature and rejuvenate your soul. Experience the unexplored which make Himachal's core.

To see the problems in building the so-called Internet of Things, look at the trackside switches in what the railroad industry calls "dark territory." These switches are important -- if one is in the wrong position, a train could go off on a sidetrack spur at normal track speed and derail. But these areas are called dark territory because they're lightly used stretches of track in remote areas, where there are no automated signals, and probably no power lines and cellular links. Train operators must visually check that each switch is in the right position.
Union Pacific CIO Lynden Tennison would love to have a monitor that does nothing more than tell dispatchers and engineers which position a switch out in dark territory is in. For such a simple task, "it seems like it ought to be a $100 device, just to me and you living in the consumer tech world," Tennison says. But the sensor would need a power source and a communication link, and it would need to be hardened and weather-resistant. His goal: to get the cost to buy and implement each switch down below $10,000.
Tennison gets a lot of sales calls from analytics software vendors, each promising to help him sort out the data that the Internet of Things can generate for Union Pacific, the largest railroad company in the US. But Tennison's bigger problem is still having to do too much manual data collection. "I keep telling them that if you'll solve my sensor problem and get me a lot of cheap sensors out there that can collect a lot more information for me, I'll buy your analytics engine," he says.
That's the state of the game when it comes to the Internet of Things -- progress, but also frustrating barriers.
Companies in a variety of industries -- transportation, energy, heavy equipment, consumer goods, healthcare, hospitality, insurance -- are getting measurable results by analyzing data collected from all manner of machines, equipment, devices, appliances, and other networked "things."
Union Pacific says it reduced the number of train derailments caused by failed bearings by 75% by doing near-real-time analysis of data collected by sensors along its tracks, and now it's pouring millions of R&D dollars into new techniques, such as accelerometers on trains that feel for bumps that suggest a bad track. GE Power & Water says it helped Dubai Aluminum improve the fuel efficiency of its gas turbines by 1.5% while increasing output 3.4%, by analyzing sensor-collected operating data. Oil and gas company ConocoPhillips thinks it can save about $250 million a year in drilling costs by doing real-time measurement and analysis along the drill line to fine-tune factors such as speed and pressure on the drill bit. FedEx expects to save $9 million a year using sensors on its trucks that let it schedule dock assignments more efficiently.
Companies are moving more cautiously on the customer-facing Internet of Things, but they're making progress as well. John Deere can do remote, wireless diagnostics of some tractors and combines, for example. Guests at Disney World can wear MagicBands equipped with RFID chips that, when placed next to a reader, connect to their accounts and let them make purchases, access rides, and open their hotel rooms.
But companies are also hitting roadblocks. Union Pacific's Tennison says this whole area of "sensor-based, network-based diagnostic and predictive analytics" will be the biggest technology opportunity in his industry for the next 10 or 15 years. "Having said that, it's not moving as fast as I would like," he says.
Whirlpool CIO Michael Heim says "our toe is in the water on connected devices," as the company figures out the kind of connections customers really want in their homes, and what they'll pay for. Heim does see huge potential, and not just the cliché scenario of your refrigerator knowing all its contents and emailing you when the milk's running low. If customers let Whirlpool track appliance usage remotely, that would be a boon to product development, providing a window into what features people really use. What if the fridge told you when temperatures are varying, suggesting a pending failure, or your icemaker lost water pressure, suggesting a busted pipe might be spraying water all over your kitchen? What if your washer could be diagnosed remotely, since many appliances already generate electronic error codes? Even further out, what if people with elderly parents could monitor appliances remotely -- if Dad opened the fridge four times, used the stove, and ran some laundry, he's probably OK.
While Whirlpool product teams are working on all the foundations for this kind of connectivity, Heim says, "those are more futuristic than you think."
Here are the main IoT challenges companies are wrestling with.
The data isn't good enough. One of the myths about the Internet of Things is that companies have all the data they need, but their real challenge is making sense of it. In reality, the cost of collecting some kinds of data remains too high, the quality of the data isn't always good enough, and it remains difficult to integrate multiple data sources.
Let's start with getting enough data. The cost of a sensor includes not just the device, but also the installation, maintenance, connectivity, and power. And even in tightly controlled environments such as a factory, a lot of legacy equipment wasn't built for Internet connectivity, making security and integration problematic.
"We've come a long way, and we're leveraging the heck out of what we do have out there," Tennison says. "I'm just saying to myself, 'If I had 10 times or 20 times as many collection points as I do today, how much better could we get?' That seems to me right now the biggest problem."
Data quality is a problem that GE Power & Water CIO Jim Fowler is putting in front of his $28 billion-a-year unit's CEO and other company leaders. The monitoring and alerting systems GE is developing for maintenance of its gas and wind turbines, for example, draw on many types of data, including customers' operational data and their inventories of replacement parts.
The data collected today is good enough to improve operations -- GE says wind-power company First Wind, for example, improved energy output 3% from existing turbines by monitoring weather and operating conditions and changing the blade pitch on its turbines for better efficiency. But the data
