***Please check comments at about comment 74-76. I have added a new article link and two more video clips to check out. Thanks!
In Nov. 2011 we covered an E2 of the series "Our America With Lisa Ling - Modern Polygamy." Since that time, the video was pulled-however, we were lucky and found a link to the show in it's entirety. Why such interest in an older show? It is all about Centennial Park, and some of the same folks on this show are highlighted on POLYGAMY USA. It's almost like peeking into their world a couple years sooner.
Here the link to the original show:
Yes, you will feel like you are in Pokeman commercial world, but once the show is on, you'll forget all that!
Since then, clips have come out. Teresa in this clip moved out of the family home, then returned. Even Ole Arthur is in the clip.

It used to be that if you wanted to find that familiar diagram
of a bovine, carved up with dotted lines into "rump," "loin,"
"plate," "brisket", you'd find yourself heading back to the Joy of Cooking, which was
the last word in pretty much everything. Nowadays, the Joy of
Cooking--for all its many virtues--isn't the last word in anything,
and primal-cut books abound.
Although many of us are
fascinated by whole-animal, nose-to-tail preparation, not all that
many of us are actually doing it. Yet somehow the bar has
been raised, and knowing a good deal more detail about your meat
and where it comes from (and what does "round" mean anyway?) seems
to matter more than it did before.
Chickens, of course, have been commanding their own cookbooks
for decades. They've been evolving, though. The older
ones offer endless variations on what you can do with boneless
breast. The most recent ones start with incubating the egg,
and what sort of feed you should be using in your homemade chicken
The pig may have the most devoted following, with every year
bringing another offering or two: Pork and Sons, Bruce
Aidell's Complete Book of Pork, The Whole
Hog, Lard,
and if you want to stretch it, A Girl and her Pig.
And that's not even counting the many barbecue books that are
essential odes to the pig too.
Perhaps the clearest indication
that the single-animal cookbook has arrived is Goat: Meat, Milk,
Cheese, by mainstream cookbook team Mark Scarbrough and Bruce
Weinstein. And while many, including myself, may not have
access to goat meat or milk, it seemed perfectly natural for
somebody to devote an entire book to the subject.
How about you? What's your favorite animal, on the table
or in the book? And while we're at it, what's your favorite
way to serve it forth?
Lamb! Buying a half lamb yearly from a farmer friend has taught me quite a bit about cuts and nose-to-tail.
I know what you mean! The first year I went in on a beefer I took the heart and was totally at a loss. Same problem with lamb tongues and livers. (story here: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=96865367)
Wow, we have a lot of PET goats...they are super intelligent and sweet. They know their names....have to stick with goat cheese, can't eat them!
I'm on the edge here... a vegetarian who has accepted meat as a locavore. But when the pozole I wanted to cook called for half a cow head, the "ew" factor made me close the book.
Harvestmoon, I sympathize. I'm getting my first chickens this year, and since they are probably going to get nicknames, they are probably not going to get eaten. And queezle-sister, I could not eat a half a cow head either! I'm an omnivore, not a hemi-bovo-cephalovore...!

Sunscreen Cuts Flare-Ups
Posted: 06/21/2012
Although sun exposure may be the most common rosacea trigger, patients who take steps to protect their skin when outdoors have been successful in reducing rosacea outbreaks, according to a new National Rosacea Society patient survey. Virtually all of the 739 respondents said they make an effort to shield their skin from the sun, and 88 percent of those said their efforts had been successful or somewhat successful in reducing their rosacea flare-ups.
"Even small amounts of sun exposure can cause problems for rosacea patients," said Dr. Alexa Boer Kimball, associate professor of dermatology at Harvard Medical School. "While everyone needs to be cautious about excessive exposure to the sun because of its link to skin cancer, rosacea patients need to be especially vigilant about blocking the sun's harmful rays."
Survey respondents cited a variety of protective measures they use to avoid the sun. Eighty-three percent said they use sunscreen and 70 percent said they wear sunglasses that block UVA rays. More than 60 percent mentioned staying in shaded areas and 55 percent reported they wear a broad-brimmed hat when outdoors. Half of those answering the survey said they stay inside at midday, and nearly a third said they wear long sleeves when outside. Sixteen percent noted they use a parasol or umbrella as a sun shield.
Dermatologists commonly recommend using a sunscreen with a sun-protection factor (SPF) of at least 30, and most survey respondents said they heed that advice. Forty-two percent noted that they use a sunscreen with an SPF 30, 20 percent said they use an SPF 50 and 14 percent said they use a product with an SPF greater than 50.
"The SPF of a sunscreen product is only one aspect of good sun protection," Dr. Kimball said. "Users need to remember to apply sunscreen at least 30 minutes before going out in the sun and to reapply sunscreen after swimming, perspiring or being in the sun for more than two hours."
Not all survey respondents had received the message about proper sunscreen usage. Only 49 percent said they always apply sunscreen a half hour before going out in the sun, as advised. Only 38 percent reported that they reapply the product as directed.
Eighty-nine percent of the survey respondents reported they use a sunscreen that protects against both UVA and UVB rays.

A Folk'd Up Kicking Situation
After missing five field goals in the last four games, the Cowboys are starting to worry about their kicking situation. Nick Folk was automatic his rookie year making the pro bowl in 2007 and continued to shine in 2008. He had hip surgery in the offseason and didn't resume kicking until training camp. This season Folk has missed 8 of 24 attempts.
It's possible he's just having an off year and after missing his normal offseason training and routine because of surgery it certainly explains why he's struggling.
But its also possible that the misses aren't completely Folk's fault. As stated by the coaches, it could be a combination of things. Folk automatically gets the blame because he's the kicker but there is also the long snapper and the holder in the mix.
"The hold, the snap, the kick, the coach," special teams coordinator Joe DeCamillis said, including himself in the equation. "We've got to get it squared away."
"I'm worried that it's a combination of confidence more than anything," Wade Phillips said. "They work all the time on it. Those guys spend a lot of practice time snapping and holding, snapping and holding. That's what they do and kicking. I would feel like we would have more confidence than we've had. Whether it's working into the kicker or the holder or whoever, we've got to determine what we need to do there and go forward."
"I'm not losing any faith in Nick at all," DeCamillis said. "I've been around this thing for 22 years, and I've seen them miss 'em and I've seen them make 'em. They go through stretches just like any other player. Unfortunately for him, it's right out in the open for everybody to see."
Both Wade Phillips and Joe DeCamillis are confident in Nick Folk's ability so it doesn't seem like any big changes are coming, but they will be working on some of the details and smaller aspects of the field goal unit.
Rookie kicker David Buehler is excellent on kickoffs but not as accurate or consistent when it comes to field goals.
Don't expect to see any noticeable changes any time soon. It's likely they will just practice more and try to correct the problem.
Hopefully the crowd can get back to cheering "FOLK YEAH!" very soon.

Charlie King needed a new web page design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 40 designs submitted by 6 freelance designers.
http://www.newrulesgolf.com from a book I wrote titled "the New Rules of Golf Instruction"
I am Director of Instruction at Reynolds Plantation outside of Atlanta, GA. I am a Golf Magazine Top 100 Teacher. I am the author of 3 books including my latest "The New Rules of Golf Instruction". This book is about raising the standard of golf instruction (I identify 9 standards). Golf Instruction does not currently have a recognizable standard.
I will targeting two groups and funneling to separate pages on the website. One group are golfers who want to reach their potential and I will selling them on a membership called New Rules Golf Potential Club. The other target are golf instructors who want to be the best. The New Rules Golf Coach membership will lead to a certification that teaches them coaching skills as well as the business skills to make a 6 figure income.
Golfers are looking for one trusted source of information to cut through the confusion of golf and help them reach their potential.
The teachers are looking for a higher standard that makes sense and gives them a true north for their career.
1. Please use my existing home page http://www.newrulesgolf.com as a start. I like my logo but think the top of the page could look sleeker like constantcontact.com. I would like to see your creative ideas for a different header. Maybe white with the reflection look.
2. I will have a different video player but I am committed to the placement of the video player at the top of the page with a video from me in it's current position. http://www.onecoach.com has a call to action and video player placement I like.
3. I also like the red buttons (Free Stuff, etc.) and the old typewriter font. I want to see creative placement and a unique look to the page.
4. I would like to see how you would funnel golfers to their page within the website and teachers to their page
5. With those things in mind I am looking for your creativity.

I was thinking this would be a nice poster for any DBA to hang up in their cubical. But as I read down near the bottom, I saw they also mentioned getting performance counters from within SQL Server via sys.dm_os_performance_counters. Ah ha! My light bulb just turned on!
In an earlier post, I had discussed how to get performance counters from within SQL Server, so for this post I want to share a stored procedure that pulls the counters as described in the poster as well a few more.
The procedure is sp_PerformanceCounters, and it will aggregate overall performance data that is available in the sys.dm_os_performance_counters DMV. The metrics are gathered for various counters and objects and displayed in 7 columns.
- PerformanceObject - The counter category.
- CounterName - Name of the counter.
- InstanceName - The specific instance of the counter; often the database name.
- TimeFrame - The timeframe of the counter.
- ActualValue - The value of the counter.
- IdealValue - A generalized optimal value for the counter.
- Description - A brief description of the counter.
For the TimeFrames that are "Current", those are counter type 65792 and are the absolute values that do not need any special definition. For example, you can select the number of database pages in the buffer pool, and the value returned is the current value.
SELECT * FROM sys.dm_os_performance_counters
WHERE object_name = 'MSSQL$TEST1:Buffer Manager'
AND counter_name = 'Database Pages';
The second TimeFrame "Total since SQL startup" is also easy to interpret. This counter is also of type 65792, and it's just the accumulated total of a counter since SQL was started up. For example, you can select the number of log growths from the databases counter which would tell you the total number of log growths for all databases since SQL Server was last started.
SELECT * FROM sys.dm_os_performance_counters
WHERE object_name = 'MSSQL$TEST1:Databases'
AND counter_name = 'Log Growths'
ORDER BY instance_name;
The last and most common TimeFrame is "Avg since SQL startup", which is for counters of type 272696576. The value of these counters get incremented every time that event is fired and are mostly related to "per second" counters. To figure out the per second value we have to divide by the total uptime (in seconds) of SQL Server. This will give us the output displayed in the ActualValue column. This is also one reason why the SQL Server startup time is the first row displayed in the output. The SQL Server startup time is taken from the sys.dm_os_sys_info DMV.
SELECT * FROM sys.dm_os_performance_counters
WHERE object_name = 'MSSQL$TEST1:SQL Statistics'
AND counter_name = 'Batch Requests/sec';
Most counter names will match exactly what you see in sys.dm_os_performance_counters; however, there will be a few that are calculated as a ratio. One example is the Page Lookup / Batch Request. This counter will show you the average number page lookups that occurred per batch request. Both of these individual counters are of type 272696576 which means they are "per second counters". However, for this ratio counter we don't care about the per second value, we just want total of Page Lookups divided by the total of Batch Requests.
DECLARE @TempValue1 DECIMAL(25,5), @TempValue2 DECIMAL(25,5)
SELECT @TempValue1 = cntr_value
FROM sys.dm_os_performance_counters
WHERE object_name = 'MSSQL$TEST1:Buffer Manager'
AND counter_name = 'Page lookups/sec';
SELECT @TempValue2 = cntr_value
FROM sys.dm_os_performance_counters
WHERE object_name = 'MSSQL$TEST1:SQL Statistics'
AND counter_name = 'Batch Requests/sec';
-- This is to avoid divide by zero.
IF @TempValue2 <> 0
SELECT @TempValue1/@TempValue2 AS 'Page lookups/Batch Requests';
All aggregated data is stored in a temporary table #PerformanceCounters and then displayed at the end, and is best viewed using the "Results to Grid" output in SSMS.
EXEC master.dbo.sp_PerformanceCounters;
Most of the ideal values and descriptions were taken from the poster mentioned above. My disclaimer with that is the real ideal value will always depend on your specific application and setup. This stored procedure was created to be used an overall health check for a server. It's especially useful if another DBA just handed you a new SQL Server to support, and you need a quick way to see a brief history of its performance.
The stored procedure was written for SQL Server 2005 and 2008. It will work on SQL Server 2012, but there were a lot of changes with the counters so I will have an updated officially supported version for 2012 soon.

1992 Jeep Wrangler YJ - Red Hot YJPosted in Features on September 1, 2011
You've seen Drivetrain Unlimited's vehicles in the pages of 4Wheel Drive before. James Stewart, Drivetrain Unlimited's owner, builds and runs some of the best 4x4s in Southern Utah.
His 1992 YJ Wrangler is no exception. After purchasing it, he immediately installed a pair of Tera CRD 60 front and rear ends with 5.13 Sierra gears and Eaton Detroit Lockers. While Stewart knows plenty about suspensions, this time he sent the Jeep to T&T Customs in Cheyenne, Wyoming, so they could do some bodywork and install their Y-Link suspension. The Y-Link features radius arms up front and reverse-triangulated upper and lower rear control arms. Along with the Y-Link suspension, T&T included JKS ACOS Pro hydraulic bumpstops and Walker Evans adjustable reservoir shocks. The bodywork included their cool aluminum HyLine fenders, Guardian no-tube rockers, and aluminum body panels. Once the Wrangler returned from Wyoming, Stewart went to work.
The 4.8L GM Vortec V-8 came from Advance Adapters, as did the aluminum radiator, motor mounts, headers, and Atlas 3.8:1 transfer case. As always, the GM mill fit cleanly under the hood. A word about the hood: Stewart fabricated a custom hood that worked with the T&T high fender kit. See the photos for the clean way he designed the hood latches. Drivetrain Unlimited, based out of St. George, Utah, built the GM 4L60E automatic tranny.
The interior features comfortable Bestop seats and search and rescue radios protected by an OR Fab Sport Cage and a Bestop Supertop. Stewart wanted to reuse the stock gauges, so he reworked the tach so it works with the V-8.
The 39.5-inch IROKs mounted on a set of Alcoa 16x10, Champion-beadlocked wheels fit perfectly. As the YJ is Stewart's daily driver, he wanted a less aggressive tire for the street. He chose a set of 37-inch Falken WildPeak all-terrains mounted on Black Rock Viper wheels. While this opened him up to ridicule when he brought his Wrangler to a run with his "Grandpa tires" on it, the scoffers were soon silenced as Stewart and his Jeep did so well the TV crew filming the run ran over to film the Red Hot YJ's performance.
Perform it does. The T&T Y-Link works. The Wrangler is stable on obstacles and handles well on the street. The 4.8L Vortec V-8 delivers plenty of power. This is one red hot YJ!

Luakit is an extremely fast, lightweight and flexible web browser using the webkit engine. It is customizable through lua scripts and fully usable with keyboard shortcuts.
The luakit package can be found in the official repositories and can be installed with pacman.
You can also use the git version available from the [AUR].
With the Unix philosophy in mind, Luakit is entirely customizable through its configuration files. Those files are written in the Lua scripting language, thus allowing virtually unlimited features. First, copy the configuration files to your $XDG_CONFIG_HOME folder:
cp -r $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/luakit $XDG_CONFIG_HOME
Now you can edit any of these files to make your brower fit your needs. Even if you do not know much about Lua, the configuration is quiet simple and well commented enough to make it straightforward.
Basic usage
Press Template:Keypress to access the command prompt. You can do nearly everything from there. Use Template:Keypress to autocomplete commands.
To quit, use the
quit command, or the Template:KeypressTemplate:Keypress shortcut.
You can also close the browser while remembering the session (i.e. restoring the tabs) by using the
writequit command instead, or the Template:KeypressTemplate:Keypress shortcut.
- Press Template:Keypress to open a prompt with the
opencommand and enter the URI you want.
- If it is not a recognized URI, luakit will use the default search engine (specified in
- Specify which search engine to use by prefixing the entry with the appropriate keywork (e.g.
:open google foobarwill search foobar on Google).
- Use common shortcuts to navigate. For emacs and vim aficionados, some of their regular shortcuts are provided. You can use the mouse as well.
- Use Template:Keypress to display the index of all visible links. Enter the appropriate number to open the link.
- Use Template:Keypress instead to open link in a new tab.
- Press Template:Keypress to open a new tab, Template:Keypress to close it.
- Switch from one tab to another with Template:Keypress and Template:Keypress, or Template:Keypress and Template:Keypress.
- You can switch to a specific tab with Template:Keypress.
- Reorder the tabs with Template:Keypress and Template:Keypress.
Input fields
Many webpages have editable elements like dropdown lists, checkboxes, text fields and so one. While they work perfectly with the mouse, you may encounter some troubles using the follow commands. In such a case, pressing the arrow keys may help.
If enabled (default configuration), bookmarks can be used from within Luakit.
- The
:bookmarkscommand opens the bookmarks page. (Shortcut: Template:Keypress).
- The
:bookmark uri groupcommand adds the specified URI to the specified group in the bookmarks.
Set your homepage as follows:
globals = { homepage = "about:blank", -- ... }
Custom search engines
You can virtually add any search engine you want. Make a search on the website you want and copy paste the URI to the Luakit configuration by replacing the searched terms with an
%s. Example:
search_engines = { aur = "https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?O=0&K=%s&do_Search=Go", -- ... }
The variable is used as a keyword for the
:open command in Luakit.
Set the defaut search engine by using this same keyword:
search_engines.default = search_engines.aur
Bookmarks sync and import
Bookmarks are stored in a simple plain text file:
Each line is a bookmark. It is composed of 2 fields:
link group
Groups and links are alphabetically sorted, so there is no need to do it manually.
You can put a symbolic link in place of the default file to store your bookmarks anywhere on your machine. This way if your are using a cloud sync application like Dropbox, you can keep your bookmarks synchronized between your different computers.
To import your bookmarks from Firefox, first you must export them to an HTML file using its bookmarks manager. Now we must convert the XML file to a Luakit format. You can use the following one-line awk command:
$ cat bookmarks.html | awk '{gsub(/=/," ")}{gsub(/\"/," ")}/<\/H3>/{FS=">";gsub(/</,">");og=g;g=$(NF-2);FS=" "}/
- /{x++;if(x>= 3)gl[x-3]=g}/<\/DL>/{x--;if(x==2)g=og"2"}'/HREF/{gsub(/</," ");gsub(/>/," ");if(g!=""){if(og!=g){printf "\n";og=g};printf "%s\t",$4;if(x>=3){for(i=0;i<=x-4;i++){printf "%s-",gl[i]}printf "%s\n",gl[x-3]}else{printf "\n"}}}'
Or if you prefer the more readable script version:
{gsub(/=/," ")} {gsub(/\"/," ")} /<\/H3>/ { FS=">" gsub(/</,">") oldgroup=group group=$(NF-2) FS=" " } /<DL>/ { count++ if ( count >= 3 ) groupline[count-3]=group } /<\/DL>/ { count-- if( count == 2 ) group=oldgroup"ROOT" } /HREF/ { gsub(/</," ") gsub(/>/," ") if (group != "") { if(oldgroup != group) { printf "\n" oldgroup=group } printf "%s\t",$4 if ( count >= 3 ) { for ( i=0 ; i <= count-4 ; i++ ) {printf "%s-" , groupline[i]} printf "%s\n" , groupline[count-3] } else printf "\n" } }
Run it with
$ awk -f ff2lk.awk bookmarks.html

Today as I was chauffeuring my youngest to her swimming lesson, all the while feeling very proud that I had managed to feed the troops, get the laundry started, change the bed sheets, shower and get us out of the door by 9:20 am with minimal stress, I began to think about the Olympics. Tell me what you think of this. They should have an Olympic category for moms (and dads) to demonstrate how to manage a household and not, you know, go crazy. Moms from all over the world could demonstrate their multitasking skills of feeding, bathing, diapering, clothing, cooking, cleaning, laundering, improvising, budgeting, bandaging, refereeing, coaching, chauffeuring, and carpooling all within say ... a tidy 5 minute time frame. Can you just see a row of mom's at the ready ... and then with lightning speed completing their task, hitting the buzzer, and throwing both arms up in the air shouting, "Done"!! Yes, it would be quite the event and one where every participant wins a gold medal just for taking on the challenge.
There is a beautiful young woman from
South African cuisine is a mixture of many cultures. I found recipes for stews and curries that made my mouth water. Some recipes contained ingredients I never heard of, and others contained familiar ingredients used in new ways. Based on my recent dessert making success, I thought I'd try out a sweet treat recipe called quite simply Pumpkin Fritters that I found on the good ol' World Wide Web at 3men.com.
Pumpkin Fritters remind me of a warm, fancy donut that you'd find in a fine bakery. Covered in cinnamon sugar, these little fried fritters are considered a side dish; however, I think they would make a lovely breakfast pastry or after school snack. I did change the recipe a tad based on my cupboard contents. Plus, I altered the ingredients to make it gluten free. I'll post the regular recipe as well as the gluten free changes.
These were good! You should have seen my littlest pumpkin's eyes light up when she realized that there are foods like this that she can enjoy. Hubbyman snarfed down several in one-bite increments, and my older girl chowed down as well. I liked them, but one was enough for me as I'm not a big sweet eater. My son thought they were ok, but ate all of his anyway. I mean, come on, it was coated with cinnamon sugar! I think these would be great additions to breakfast trays at Thanksgiving and Christmas. In fact, I've filed away the recipe to use again when the holidays roll around. See how pretty they are on the inside? They are heartier than a donut, but not heavy. Uh, if they do add a mother venue to the Olympics, I'm really going to have to do something about those fingernails.
Pumpkin Fritters
- 2 cups cooked pumpkin, mashed (I used canned sweet potatoes and they were a terrific substitute).
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoons of sugar
- 1/2 cup flour* (See below)
- pinch of salt* (See below)
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder* (See below)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 6 tablespoons sugar
Combine pumpkin, egg, sugar, flour, salt, and baking powder in a bowl, making a soft batter. Fry spoonfuls in shallow oil till both sides are lightly browned. I just used a regular sized skillet, and a slotted spoon to turn them. Watch carefully as they can burn quickly. And, boy oh boy, if you aren't used to frying in oil, be careful not to burn yourself when you turn them over. Drain on paper towels. By the way, they weren't greasy at all.
In a plastic baggy, combine cinnamon and sugar. Gently toss each fritter with the mixture. Serve warm.
*Gluten Free Changes: I substituted a Gluten Free Baking Mix for the flour, salt, and baking powder. It worked beautifully.

This is a reprint of an article I wrote for US Pro Cycling News.
Its happened again; the 2011 season brought us another amazing race. This year's edition of Paris-Roubaix saw Garmin-Cervélo take a win it dearly needed, as this newly formed team had yet to take any big wins. However, the win came from an unexpected rider- instead of a big name rider, it was Johan Van Summeren, a 30 year old super domestique with only 4 wins to his name, who took a solo win in the Roubaix velodrome. Crashes, bickering, and a well timed attack allowed Van Summeren to get away with 15km to go.
A break wasn't able to establish itself until after 100km. The initial group of eight included David Boucher (Omega Pharma-Lotto), Martin Elmiger (AG2R), Jimmy Engoulvent (Saur-Sojasun), Maarten Tjalingii (Rabobank), Mitchell Docker (Skil-Shimano), Nelson Oliveira (Radioshack), David Veilleux (Europcar), and Timon Seubert (Netapp) were eventually joined by Andre Greipel (Omega Pharma-Lotto), Koen de Kort (Skil-Shimano), and Gorazd Stangelj (Astana). After Oliverira dropped back to the peloton, the group of 10 were only allowed 2:40 with 100km to go.
The Arenberg Trench
As the Arenberg forest section of cobbles approached, the peloton increased the speed as it jostled for a good position going into the Trench. This caused the gap to go down and crashes to happen. Henrich Haussler and Roger Hammond, both of Garmin-Cervelo, were the main casualties, with Haussler abandoning and Hammond going to the hospital.
It was in the Arenberg forest where Tom Boonen's troubles started. Of all the favorites, Tom Boonen surely had the worst time at Paris-Roubaix. First he had a mechanical that left him stranded in the Arenberg without a team car in sight. After he chased back to the group, he was caught in crash which reduced his chances of a good finish to zero. He eventually quit the race, despite urgings from his team DS. Tom Boonen wasn't the only Quick Step member who had a rough time. His teammate Sylvian Chavenal earned the respect of many when, after a crash and a flat, he not only got back to the group, but finished the race.
As the peloton left the Trench, a chase group of seven followed the leaders. This group included Lars Boom (Rabobank), Johan Van Summeren (Garmin-Cervelo), Jurgen Roelandts (Omega Pharma-Loto), Baden Cooke (Saxo Bank-Sungard), Lars Bak (HTC-Highroad), Matthew Haymen (Sky), Manuel Quinziato (BMC) and Frederic Guesdon (FDJ). This group was able to bridge over the 10 leaders, bringing the lead group up to 17. But the lead group wasn't done growing. Soon after the Arenberg cobbles, an attack by John Degenkolb (HTC-Highroad), Gregory Rast (Radioshack), Tom Leezer (Rabobank) and Gabriel Rasch (Garmin-Cervelo) allowed them to bridge to the lead group as well.
By this point, there were 21 leaders in the front, the favorites (Fabian Cancellara, Alessandro Ballan, Thor Hushovd, and Juan Antonia Flecha) were at the front of the peloton, and 10 cobbled sections to go.
Right before the cobbles at Mons-en-Pévèle, 50km from the finish, all hell broke loose.
The Action Heats Up
It was at this time when Cancellara attacked, hoping for a repeat performance of last year's race where he time trialed alone into the velodrome. This was not to be, as Hushovd, Flecha, and Ballan were all able to mark his wheel. Despite another attack two cobbled sections later, Cancellara was only able to drop Flecha- Hushovd and Ballan held tight. At the same time, a flurry of attacks were happening in the lead group, causing riders to drop, reducing it to 16 riders. In the chase group behind, there was no cooperation to be had, as both Hushovd and Ballan had teammates in the lead group and Cancellara was not interested in a repeat of the Tour of Flanders, were he towed Chavenal to the line. This squabbling in the chase group allowed the lead group to gain another minute.
Up in the lead group, Bak attacked at the Camphin-en-Pévèle cobbles. Only Rast, Tjallingii and Van Summeren were able to go with him.
With 15km to go, Cancellara decided to try his luck again with another attack. Hushovd was not to be denied and stuck on his wheel again. The two made it up to what was left of the lead group, with Cancellara still not able to shake Hushovd.
While Cancellara was attacking, so was Van Summeren, from the lead group of 4. The only one who was able to follow was Tjallingii, but not for long. Soon, Van Summeren was on his own, riding his heart out to make it to the velodrome first.
A Final Attack
Back in the chasing group, Cancellara was not interested in giving up and attacked one last time. This time he was able to go at alone, as Hushovd was caught behind some other riders and not able to grab Cancellara's wheel as he powered away.
Try as he might, he was only able to catch Tjallingii, Bak and Rast. Despite riding the last 5km on a flat, Van Summeren was able to solo to victory in the velodrome. Cancellara sprinted for second with Tjallingii and Rast, 19 seconds after Van Summeren crossed the line and came in just ahead of Tjallingii.
And thus, another edition of Paris-Roubaix came to a close.

I'm ever so thankful that I don't need a cane, or crutches, or a wheelchair. There's a chance that's not a permanent situation, so I'll enjoy the current stage all I can. As frustrating as it can be for people to have no clue what RA is, I like not having my illness sticking out for all to see. Invisibility has some advantages – except when the invisibility cloak starts to slip.
"Are you okay?" the greeter asked, seeing my slow movements.
"I'm a little sore this morning," I admitted without further explanation.
"Yeah, you look like there's a little hitch in your giddy-up," was his reply.
This concluded our conversation, and I limped on into the building.
"You're moving kinda slow this morning. What happened?" was the next greeting.
A light-hearted, "I was attacked by my immune system," seemed like a better response than a discussion of the distinction between adjectives and adverbs, but my attempt to be funny went over the person's head. She looked at me like I was crazy and wandered away.
A little while later a friend mentioned that I looked a little stiff, and again I replied that I was feeling a little sore. "Did you take anything for it?" she asked. That's one of the many nice thing about real friends instead of acquaintances; they'll follow up. I laughed, "Yes, I'm a walking pharmacy." Of all people to ask if I'd taken anything, it was pretty funny that this friend was the one to do so. We roomed together on a retreat. We've eaten many meals together. She's seen my pill box. Yet she didn't realize. I guess that means I've gotten good at taking pills discretely.
The question is how to remain invisible while promoting awareness. I want to remain invisible. That's part of the reason I blog anonymously. If I ever need to go job hunting, I don't want a google search of me to yield any hint of a health problem. Currently, a google-search of my IRL name turns up over two million hits, but after scrolling through page after page after page of links, I realize that people aren't going to find me without dedicating some time to the task. Nobody's truly invisible on the internet, but I'm mighty hard to find. I'd like to keep it that way.
I want my illness to be invisible, but RA to be as widely recognized as MS or SLE or ALS.

Music to Your Ears
More Music for Katrina—A whole slew of New Mexico arts and music organizations have banded together for another benefit concert in the name of Hurricane Katrina's victims. Titled "Chicory and Chile," the show will feature a huge variety of performances from 7 to 10:30 p.m. at the historic KiMo Theatre this Friday, Oct. 7. Admission is free, but any donations you can afford will go on to benefit three very worthy causes: The American Red Cross, Gulf Coast Musicians and the Humane Society of the United States. Performers include Bayou Seco, Priscilla Baca y Candelaria, Christian Orellana, Jenny Bird, classical composer Rahim Al Haj, Tony Rio & Voodoo Chili, Danny Solis and the 2005 National Poetry Slam Championship Team, Bonnie Bluhm and Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez, author of The Dirty Girl's Social Club.

with Alchemical Burn, Cobra//group and AGL
Thursday, Oct. 6; Wherehouse, (all-ages), $5: Noise musicians Raven Chacon (composer, founder of the local experimental improv collective Cobra//group and a former Albuquerque resident) and Bob Bellerue (Los Angeles "noise artist"), also known as Halfnormal, will visit Albuquerque this week on their West Coast Noise Tour. Halfnormal and others in the field create a type of music that is both aural and physical, as well as detrimental to your hearing, with a myriad of homemade instruments like theremin guitars and gutted pianos (and some moogs, I'm guessing). Being old pals (sort of), me and Raven recently had a ding-a-ling of a chitty chat.

Music Magnified
Wolf Eyes
with Prurient, Alchemical Burn and Manhole
Sunday, Oct. 9; the Launchpad (21-and-over), $7: If you ever find yourself lying in bed, unable to get up and worried that you'll spend the entire day under the covers, grab your CD player remote and put on Wolf Eyes' Burned Mind. After a few moments, your new thought process should be something like: "I can't lay here all day. I've got to get up and stab someone in the throat!" Using homemade instruments/noise-producing contraptions, Wolf Eyes works in the medium of textural sound to produce tangible feelings of pain, anxiety and impending doom. As tense as the record makes you feel, there is something strangely cathartic about listening to 70 minutes of continually pulsating racket. This isn't music to get the party started. (Unless your party revolves around ritual suicide.) It's a demonic sermon or perhaps a sadistic wake-up call. The Ann Arbor trio was fortunate to be recognized by leading independent label Sub Pop as more than just adroit noisesters. Wolf Eyes has somehow managed to combine musical extremism with something that even rock purists can get wound up about. I start to tense up when I think about what a live Wolf Eyes show might be like; even listening to Burned Mind on low volume can make me break into a sweat. A few things are for certain; it will be loud, grating and a true sight to behold.

DirtHeadz DirtHeadz Presents: The Movement (Dirthead Productions)
They may never receive the heavy rotation of hip-hop heavyweights like Jay Z or Kanye West, but the Dirtheadz' latest release is about as commercially viable as underground hip-hop can get. The Movement has the high-pitched hooks and unflinching swagger that characterizes so much of popular rap today. But the record amounts to more than music for the masses. The track "No Names With Names" in particular merits critical as well as widespread approbation for its combination of immediate likability and salient flows. Give Kanye's Late Registration a break and check out what the Dirtheadz have to offer.

Rock Outside the Box Volume 2
Nate Smith gets his pie manhandled in the name of local music
It's been more than two years since the Rock Outside the Box compilation ripped 14 up-and-comers from the streets of downtown Albuquerque and crammed them into one precocious little jewel case. The album was organized by Feels Like Sunday guitarist Nate Smith. He says he did it to "promote unity in the scene." At the time of its release, our own Michael Henningsen said, "Not since Socyermom's Ouch! compilation has a collection of songs by local bands struck such a bright glimmer of hope."

Action Alert-Tell Your Senators: Take Forced Treatment Out of Doc Fix Bill
Tell Your Senators: Take Forced Treatment Out of Doc Fix Bill
On Monday-March 31, the Senate is likely to vote on a bill (H.R. 4302) to prevent a cut in payments to physicians under Medicare (the "Doc Fix") that includes funding for a totally unrelated program that subjects people in crisis to forced psychiatric treatment.
The House passed H.R. 4302 on a voice vote with no debate last Thursday. The Senate could do the same Monday and the President could sign it before midnight.
The 123-page Protecting Access to Medicare Act of 2014, H.R. 4302, includes a four-year, $60 million grant program (Sec. 224) to expand involuntary outpatient commitment (IOC) – also called Assisted Outpatient Treatment (AOT) – in states that have laws authorizing IOC. The laws allow courts to mandate someone with a serious mental illness to follow a specific treatment plan, usually requiring medication, which is overseen by a judge.
The evidence demonstrates that involuntary outpatient commitment is ineffective, increases costs with minimal returns and that there are more effective alternatives.
Contact your Senators today. Tell them to take the funding for forced treatment out of the Doc Fix bill. Make these points:
- Section 224 has nothing to do with Medicare.
- It would use Federal dollars to pay for forced psychiatric treatment in our communities.
- Forced treatment is traumatizing.
- It criminalizes people in crisis.

With today's live shows and events requiring increasingly more sophisticated power distribution systems, it is more critical than ever to use high quality mains connectors, to avoid the risk of potential technical faults over the power system's life.
Designed to terminate multiway power cables, to reliably transport six separate mains connections over a single cable, the Tourmate® Multilock™ 19-pin connectors range has been utilised by some of the industry's most demanding productions for more than a decade. In this time, over 100,000 Multilock connectors have been supplied to leading rental companies, installers and venues worldwide.
The latest generation of connectors, Multilock Plus™, continues the range's pedigree of delivering innovation, quality, performance and reliability at an economical cost. Extremely robust construction, safety-conscious design and a comprehensive feature-set make them the connector of choice for harsh environments, or where longevity is of paramount importance - such as the professional touring and theatre marketplaces.
The Safe Option
Designed to handle the rigours of day-to-day use, Multilock Plus connectors are manufactured from machined aluminium with thick wall construction, and finished in a hard black plating. The insert stack is manufactured from chloroprene rubber, allowing the use of removable contacts in crimp or solder versions.
When mated, Multilock Plus connectors are watertight to IP67, making them ideal for use at outdoor events and in applications where water may be encountered. User safety is assured through a combination of a two-tier recessed female pin arrangement and First Mate, Last Break earth contacts. Optional grounding disks may be fitted to enable bussing of all earth contacts.
Integral Insulation
The line connector backshell is fitted with an integral insulator. This form of construction provides all the benefits of a strong outer metal shell, with the electrical safety characteristics offered by a non-conductive inner sleeve - preventing the possibility of broken wires touching the connector shell.
Robust Spider Clamp
The optional spider clamp makes the construction of six-circuit cable assemblies simple and neat. Each cable is individually clamped to ensure good strain relief, and is sealed to provide a watertight connection to IP67.
The spider clamps are available in two sizes:
1.5 to suit 3 x 1.5mm² HO7 RN-F and AWG 16/15 cable
2.5 to suit 3 x 2.5mm² HO7 RN-F and AWG 14/13 cable

SYCAMORE – The Sycamore boys basketball team had a great opportunity Friday night.
The Spartans came into their home contest against Rochelle one game behind first-place Kaneland in the Northern Illinois Big 12 East. With a victory, Sycamore would remain in the race, at the very least.
However, Rochelle's fast start and and hot, top-notch shooting ended up being too much for the Spartans in a 71-64 loss.
Sycamore (16-10, 5-4 NI Big 12 East) remains one game back of the Knights after Kaneland's 50-46 loss to Morris. The Redskins are also 5-4 in conference.
The loss to the Hubs (11-17, 4-5 NI Big 12 East) might have been a blown opportunity, but the Spartans still have life in the race for the league title.
"It hurts," Sycamore coach Andrew Stacy said. "That's what we talk about, controlling what we control and taking care of our own business. We didn't do that tonight. Have to credit Rochelle, they did a great job."
Sycamore still can claim a share of the conference title with a win over DeKalb on Friday and a Kaneland loss at Rochelle, which certainly didn't look like a team six games under .500 after hitting six first-quarter 3-pointers on its way to a 23-point first period.
Morris also can claim a share under the same scenario with a win over Yorkville on Friday night.
The Spartans found out about Kaneland's road defeat in the locker room after the high-scoring contest.
"We kind of missed an opportunity tonight, obviously with [Kaneland] losing," Spartans senior guard David Compher said.
Compher led the Spartans with 22 points off the bench, hitting two big 3-pointers in the fourth quarter. Ben Niemann added 12 points for Sycamore and Scott Nelson finished with 10.
The Hubs came out shooting three after three, with point guard Grant Prusator making two from beyond the arc in the first period and creating for his other shooters. Prusator finished with 26 points and went 10 of 10 from the free-throw line in the fourth quarter.
Sycamore held the Hubs' three-point game in check the rest of the contest as Rochelle only made one in the second through fourth quarters combined. But Rochelle's hot shooting helped the Hubs to a 23-12 lead at the end of the first quarter.
"We know that they're a good shooting team," Compher said. "What makes it hard is they can hit at any range, and they can all shoot. That's what's difficult, you don't know which one's going to shoot."

It is a special time right now for TNA. Thursday, November 16th is TNA's primetime debut and it's a two-hour super show packed with action. It's funny but so many people doubted that TNA would ever reach that milestone. Four years ago when TNA got started with weekly pay per views it was only given a short time to live by the industry experts and "insiders." How is it then, in their undeniable wisdom, that these pundits were wrong? Why has TNA lasted and grown in leaps and bounds in four years? One word: Heart.
Four years ago TNA was the brainchild of Jeff Jarrett and his father Jerry. They started with an idea of never before done weekly pay per views at "reasonable" prices, in an effort to grow a steady fan base and move to network television. In 2002 Panda Energy bought a majority share of the company and brought in Dixie Carter to oversee the project.
Jump ahead to 2004 and TNA gets some time on the Sunshine network and Fox Sports Net. Impact tapings are moved to Universal Studios in Orlando and monthly PPVs are started.
During this time period TNA is on a consistent basis "losing" money and insiders and critics are "sure" its going to fold within months.
And yet here we are, November 2006, having just had Bound For Glory, the Super Bowl of TNA PPVs, in Detroit, Michigan, and about to start a regular spot in primetime on Thursday nights on Spike TV. Wow, do a lot of people have egg on their faces.
And why is this? Again I say heart. The heart and perseverance that Jeff and Dixie and Panda have shown is immeasurable. Of course people will jump here and say, "but Johnny, what about the talent?" To this question I say if you can't see the heart of the TNA talent each week you watch then you haven't watched a show. That the talent is 100% behind the product is obvious. We all want to succeed. But for Panda and Jarrett to keep in it until now, slowly starting to turn a profit, takes balls as big as grapefruits and the heart of an elephant.
About now the "wow, is Johnny ever sucking up" grumbling should be starting. But I ask you, would you rather only have the one choice in wrestling programming? Would you only like to drink Coke for the rest of your life because Pepsi and 7up and all the rest of the soft drinks were not available? I certainly wouldn't. And as a fan of wrestling for 28 years (yeah I'm that old), I hope I can always have choices, be they WWE, TNA, ROH, CZW, JAPW, Stampede, Japan, Mexico, England, Puerto Rico, etc. Choice is good and variety the spice of life. And I, as a fan and an employee, am thankful for people like the Jarretts, and Carters and, yes, the McMahons, for providing me with places to be entertained and employed with something I truly love with all my heart.
There it is again, heart. You'll find a lot of people say they love something, this or that, him or her, and aren't really truthful in the saying. Sure a lot of people REALLY like wrestling, or a band, or a show, or a person. But love is very special and goes beyond normal parameters. The fan that travels thousands of miles, for example, to see a show or performer and waits patiently for an autograph or second of time with a special performer, these people are the lovers of wrestling or what have you.
And these are the people I, and the rest of my profession, go out there night after night to entertain, because as much as some of you love to come and see us perform, we love just as much to perform for you and earn your gratitude.
That said, I urge you all to tune in to Spike TV this coming Thursday for TNA's primetime debut at 9 p.m. eastern. For it is with the love of an entire company and all our hearts that we have made it this far and could not have done it without you.
Thank you!
And on a personal note it is my great pleasure to also announce that my good friend and one of the future greats of the business TJ Wilson, has (FINALLY) signed a developmental deal with WWE and will be reporting to Deep South in 2007. Congratulations TJ, I knew it was inevitable and you deserve it more than anyone I know.

A British energy firm is to press ahead with plans to exploit a massive gas field discovered in West Clare – despite local opposition to fracking.
The Irish Sun reports that a new natural gas field of up to 3.86 trillion cubic feet of shale gas has been found in Clare.
The UK-based energy firm Enegi has confirmed to the paper that it intends to apply to the Irish authorities for an exploration licence before next February.
But locals have already objected as extraction of the shale gas will involve 'fracking'.
Roisin Ni Ghairbhith of Clare Fracking Concerned told the paper: "What Enegi Oil need to realise is that the people of Clare value their health, water, environment and most of all their children a lot more than any short-term jobs.
"The public, the entire County Council and the IFA in Clare have all said no to fracking ever happening in this county."
The report states that a study carried out on behalf of Enegi by Fugro Robertson Ltd calculates the recoverable resource estimates for the area to be between 1.49 trillion cubic feet and 3.86 trillion cubic feet of shale gas.
Enegi chief Alan Minty said: "Clare Basin is a highly prospective project and we are delighted to be involved at this early stage.
"Our findings and the report from Fugro have further endorsed management's belief that the Clare Basin has a strong best case investment profile.
"The whole acreage appears to be very prospective and we are particularly excited by the area at the centre of the existing seismic grid which we have defined as high grade."
The find is located between Doonbeg and Kilrush in the west of the county.
A statement from Enegi said: "We have undertaken some preliminary economic analysis which has confirmed the viability of the proposed project."

One of the biggest plays of the Ravens season had a lot to do with the arm strength of quarterback Joe Flacco.
A quarterback with less of a rocket might not have been able to fire the ball 55 yards to Jacoby Jones over the top of the Broncos defense in the AFC playoffs and a miss on that play would have meant a different Super Bowl champion in New Orleans. It was such a good throw that Ron Jaworski of ESPN called it one of the best he's ever seen and says he doesn't think he's seen another quarterback who could make it.
That's a rather hyperbolic statement that's hard to prove right or wrong, but Flacco's arm strength is certainly impressive. Matt Vensel of the Baltimore Sun spoke to Jaworski, former Ravens offensive coordinator Cam Cameron and others to find out why Flacco's able to air the ball out so effectively. Some of it is natural, but Flacco's mechanics were cited each and every time as an essential part of the package.
"Joe has the God-given talent to throw the football," Jaworski said. "Probably what people don't look at is the complete set of mechanics that it takes to throw the football with that kind of velocity. He sticks his cleats into the ground. He drives off his back foot. He's on balance, for the most part, on almost every throw. … When Joe has a clean pocket, his mechanics are outstanding."
Cameron said Flacco had one of the two best pre-draft workouts he's ever seen — Ben Roethlisberger had the other — and that the team did almost nothing to tweak his delivery once they selected him in the first round of the 2008 draft. A meeting with Tom House, a former baseball pitcher turned throwing coach who has tutored Tom Brady and others, led House to rave about Flacco's throwing motion and there's more where all of that came from in Vensel's exploration of Flacco's game.
It's an interesting look at the balance between natural talent and the way players must work to maximize it as well as an encouraging one for Ravens fans that want to see more of last season's Flacco in the years to come.

I'm home from California! It was warm and wonderful. I will share pictures soon. I came home to frigid temps in Minnesota today! I will be on Fox 9 Saturday morning at 7:45 a.m. If you live in the twin cities area, I hope you will tune in!
I have been collecting vintage valentines for years. I just can't resist those cute illustrations and punny sayings. When I saw this project on my friend's blog, I knew I had to make one of my own... http://creativebreathing.blogspot.com/2012/12/its-only-paper-moon.html
I can't bear to cut up the original valentines, so I always copy mine onto cardstock and cut those out.
I added felt hearts, rhinestone flowers, white and red polka dot ribbon and cardstock hearts to mine.
Pictures honestly can't do this project justice... it is so adorable in person.
This wreath would be cute with current valentines too... or special cards you have saved through the years. Do you want more valentine inspiration? Check out my pinterest board here... http://pinterest.com/jenni_swenson1/valentine-s-day/

"The new norm for farmers worldwide is high commodity prices, high volatility of production costs and little or no safety net for crop failures," says Sterling Liddell, vice-president for Rabo Agrifinance.
Speaking at the Southern Peanut Growers Association meeting in Panama City Beach, Fla., Liddell said prices U.S. farmers get for their crops over the next few years will in part be driven by farm decisions made in China, India, Russia and Brazil.
Over the past four to five years corn has been a driver in the commodity market and indications it will remain the crop to watch over the coming years, Liddell says.
By 2006, corn prices had stabilized over a period of years at less than three dollars a bushel — that's what corn growers expected to get paid for their crop.
In 2006, corn prices started to go up and continued to go up and now appear to be stabilized at nearly double the price farmers received prior to 2006.
Two primary factors caused the price of corn to go up and thus influenced the price of other crops that had to compete for acreage and markets. The near worldwide recession and the emergence of ethanol as a major market for corn created demand and reduced supply.
Any time new demand on the scale of that created by ethanol for corn two things happen: You either increase supply or you increase price. Since 2006, ethanol use has grown to five billion bushels a year — and continues to increase, but at a slower rate, while demand for livestock feed and other corn uses has decreased slightly.
At the same time ethanol was driving up demand for corn, the world, or most of it, experienced a recession. Two countries least affected by the recession were China and India. Both have emerging global economies and rapidly rising middle classes, thus increased demand.
Brazil was only marginally affected by the recession and recovered quickly, primarily because of their ability to produce their own energy in the form of ethanol from sugar, Liddell explains.
In the Midwest, soybeans and wheat had to compete with corn for acreage, driving supply down. Combined with worldwide production problems, the increased demand for grain from emerging countries, the need to price other grains competitive with corn, and other economic factors significantly reduced worldwide stocks of wheat and soybeans, creating more demand and increasing prices.
Two primary factors
"So, two primary factors, ethanol and China, have moved corn prices from a norm of around $3 a bushel to a norm of over $5 a bushel. Ethanol, most experts agree raised the value of corn by$1 to $1.50 and demand from China increased the remaining amount," Liddell says.
"In the early 2000s stocks to use ratios for corn, cotton, soybeans and wheat began to decline dramatically. If you take China out of the equation, stocks to use ratio remains about flat — with little change through the early to late 2000s," Liddell says.
"China became a huge consumer of commodities, and this has really manifested itself over the past 5-6 years. What it does is close down stocks to use ratio and allows tiny movements in demand to create huge volatility in the market," he adds.
Cotton is a good example. Stocks to use ratio of cotton in China was 140 percent a couple of years ago and now it's down to 40 percent.
China has policies in place requiring self sufficiency in grains, and they are 95 percent self-sufficient. To reach this goal, they had to give up acreage in other crops and cotton has been the 'give up' crop over the past few years.
In addition to cotton, the grain crop the Chinese gave up is soybeans. China now imports enough soybeans to make up about a third of the U.S. soybean crop. In the past few years, China has become a major importer of U.S. soybeans and prices continue to reflect this demand, Liddell says.
Cotton stocks remain tight in part because the other Asian economic juggernaut, India, is sitting on a huge supply of cotton that it's holding for use in Indian textile mills. While this has kept demand high among other cotton importing countries, it has also kept risk and volatility high, since no one can be sure when or if India will release any of the cotton it currently holds, to the world market.
There are a number of factors analysts are watching carefully in China, Liddell says.
One of those is the Chinese pork industry. By 2013, the Chinese will have converted in less than 10 years from having a swine industry that is 70 percent raised in backyard pens and free ranges to more than 70 percent raised in 1,000 unit or higher commercial operations.
"When feeding backyard animals the primary diet was whatever was available, mostly table scraps. In a modern confinement production system, the primary feed will be grain. They will either have to plant more grain for livestock feed or import more grain for livestock feed. At this point, it appears China has made a commitment to import the additional grain it needs to feed hogs in a modern production system," Liddell says.
Investing in infrastructure
China has moved away from land development, which has raised production per acre. Instead, they are now investing more heavily in their agricultural infrastructure.
So, the demand for corn and soybeans in China is expected to go up in the coming years. Where China goes other emerging economies, like India and Pakistan, tend to follow.
Brazil is a major supplier of soybeans to China and a major competitor with the U.S. for Chinese markets. However, Liddell stresses the U.S. at current currency standards has a big advantage over Brazil. In the major soybean producing states of Brazil it costs as much to move soybeans to a port as it costs U.S. soybean growers to ship their crop to China.
The end result is that Brazil will have to raise the price of soybeans to cover the cost of transporting their crop to China, which also bodes well for U.S. soybean producers and is a good testament to the value of a strong agricultural infrastructure when it comes to global commodity trading.
In the U.S. the four major crops — corn, soybeans, wheat and cotton — set a record with just over 237 million acres planted this year. These four major crops are driving higher commodity prices for peanuts and other crops in the U.S.
The biggest challenge to U.S. wheat production in the future will likely come from the former Soviet Union, primarily Russia and the Ukraine.
About one year out of three this area of the world will have a big crop of wheat and the other two years some disaster or another will reduce production below what is needed for domestic use.
Russia has a government policy that calls for self sufficiency in poultry production. This year, drought dramatically cut back grain production, so the Russian government banned exports. The Russians asked the Ukraine and other neighbors to reserve enough grain to feed Russia's poultry population.
The request came in the form of, "If you want natural gas for heating fuel this winter you will reserve enough of your grain to feed our chickens." That's how economic diplomacy works in that part of the world, Liddell explains.
"The end result is that about 25 percent of the grain expected on the market was gone. Will there be a similar shortage next year? "Who knows, as an economist I haven't developed the ability to predict the weather — and similar challenges exist in predicting the commodity market," he adds.
At the end of the day, the best guess is that high commodity prices are likely to be around for a while.
High prices seem to insure volatility and that appears to be another good bet in the near future. And, high commodity prices are going to drive up input costs and generally double the risk farmers now face to grow a crop.
"The good news for farmers is that there is literally a mountain of money available for investment in agriculture. Over the past four to five years, agriculture has been the safest investment worldwide, so money will be available to farmers, if they are willing to accept the high risk from volatile markets, Liddell says.

After the pouring rain all day yesterday, the howling winter winds really kicked in overnight. A cold front is suppose to be on its way. Feeling a little cooped up, I pulled on 3 layers and my Nepalese tasseled hat and went out birding. Standing in the cold wind for a few hours really took it out of me though. When I threw in the towel and got home I found all the kitties napping. Looks like a good idea! Scoot over.
And where is Bourka? Probably tucked against the radiator under the bed in the blue room.
