Rules & Regulations
Guidelines and Hunt Recommendations Process
Open Houses for Public Review of Webbed Migratory Bird
and Spring Hunt Recommendations
PHOENIX – The Arizona Game and Fish Department will host six regional open houses beginning July 22, making available for public review the proposed webbed migratory bird and spring hunt recommendations for turkey, javelina, buffalo, and bear.
The proposed hunt recommendations will be available for public review at several regional open houses scheduled as follows:
Each year the department makes recommendations to the Arizona Game and Fish Commission regarding the management of game species, which establish the seasons, dates, bag limits, open areas, and hunt permit-tag allocations based on the framework of the hunt guidelines set by the commission every two years. The proposed hunt recommendations will be posted by July 19 at www.azgfd.gov/huntguidelines.
The proposed hunt recommendations will be presented to the Arizona Game and Fish Commission for consideration during its August 2 meeting in Flagstaff.

The Arizona Game and Fish
Department follows a multi-tiered
process for setting hunting
season structures, hunting
season dates, hunt permit
allocations, and other
controlling elements for
regulating hunting of
game animals.
The Department's
Game Branch is responsible
for this task and their
mission is to protect
and manage game wildlife
populations and their
habitats to maintain the
natural diversity of Arizona,
and to provide game wildlife
oriented recreation opportunities
for present and future
generations. This is done
by using science-based
methods to assure wildlife
is managed within the
biological limits of each
species, management strategies
are also developed to
consider social acceptability
and responsibilities.
process includes:
this is no simple task,
a guiding principle requires
continually refining the
process through better
science-based management
and extensive public involvement.
The public
process used by the Department
to develop this system
contributed to a "Showcase
in Excellence Award in
2008" from the Arizona
Quality Alliance –
the organization that
recognizes total quality
management principles
and organizational excellence.
involvement is critical
for two reasons. In North
America, wildlife is held
in the public's
trust and belongs to all
citizens, unlike in other
countrries where access
is restricted by financial
or social class. Law regulates
hunting and that too is
a public process - both
are core principles of
the North American Wildlife
Conservation Model, founded
by hunters and conservationists
more than 100 years ago.
Evolution of Hunting Laws, Enforcement and the Commision System
With the guidelines in
place, and survey data
in hand, wildlife managers
and game specialists propose
the permit allocations
on a unit-by-unit basis
resulting in the proposed
Hunt Recommendations.
After the public comment
period and once approved
by the Commission, the
recommendations are incorporated
into the hunting regulations.
This is done three times
a year, starting with
the main fall Arizona
Hunting and Trapping regulations,
followed by the Spring
Turkey, Javelina, Buffalo
and Bear supplement and
then the Pronghorn Antelope
and Elk supplement. Each
of these regulations contains
all the information needed
for applying for a hunt
permit-tag through the
draw, what hunts are over-the-counter
nonpermit-tags, open areas
and season dates, and
youth hunting opportunities.
three times a year based
on the 3 hunting regulation
booklets - The main Arizona
Hunting and Trapping Regulations
in June; Spring turkey,
javelina, buffalo and
bear supplement in October;
and the pronghorn antelope
and elk supplement in
It all starts with
the Hunt Guidelines. Every
two years, on odd numbered
years, the department
revises the guidelines
for the Commission to
approve. The public's
input is encouraged. The
Hunt Guidelines provide the biological and
parameters that make up
the "recipes"
used by wildlife managers
to formulate the annual
hunt recommendations (season
dates, permits allocated,
etc.) in which sportsmen
participate. The Commission
approves the guidelines
at its public meetings.

You know something is a trend when it needs its own acronym to describe it. So here goes: Wireless IFE Systems Providers = "WISPs"If you're part of the IFE industry, you know what I'm talking about: all the companies that are coming out with IFE systems that serve content wirelessly to passengers' own devices. Those are the WISPs.
WISPs will be out in force at next week's APEX EXPO in Long Beach: Lufthansa Systems (BoardConnect), Lumexis (WiPax), Tune Group (Tune Box), Siemens (Media4Sky), DTI (Wise), Panasonic (eXW) just to name the ones that have been publically announced. At least another dozen WISPs are in the formative stages: watch for a slew of announcements at the show.
Of course, this is no surprise to us at MondoWindow—the emergence of the WISPs is right in line with our predictions about disruption in the IFE sector. The presence of so many highly capable passenger-supplied computing devices in the cabin presents too much of an opportunity to ignore: let the passengers supply the cutting edge hardware, avoid expensive, heavy seatback units, and use ubiquitous web technology to serve them content in the manner to which they have become accustomed.
Simplicity is the essence of the systems the WISPs are buildingFirst, there's a webserver on board the plane. Because certification for airworthiness takes so long and is so expensive, the head-end servers we're seeing now are the equivalents of machines we saw on the ground several years ago: limited in terms of disc space and processing power, but certainly nothing to stand in the way of IFE deployment. Second, there are a number of wireless access points connected to the server. In most cases, three to five access points are sufficient to provide every passenger on a plane with a good quality signal. In every case that I know of, WISPs are using this client-server model on standardized consumer devices, similar to the smartphones and tablets all of us use all the time on the ground. That makes sense: the majority of passengers are now carrying web-capable devices (smartphones, tablets, laptops), so why reinvent the wheel? And this creates massive opportunity for MondoWindow. Our location services platform has been built using web technology from day one. It's a browser-native moving map that, in addition to being hosted on the web at MondoWindow.com, can be packaged up and hosted on board an aircraft's webserver by a WISP. Every WISP we've spoken to has "moving map" somewhere on their to-do list. But none of them are geoweb experts—it many cases the map is an afterthought. That's why we've developed a set of products aimed squarely at the WISPs: we want to take the pain out of developing, deploying, and updating an IFE system's moving map and instead turn it into a central feature—one that not only meets passengers' demanding needs, but can actually be a source of solid ancillary revenues for both WISPs and their airline customers. At the APEX EXPO, you'll be able to experience MondoWindow OnBoard running on a certified server operated by our partners at TriaGnoSys (our favorite WISP!). Drop by their booth (#1067) to check it out, or get in touch to set up an appointment!Oh, and in case you're wondering, I stand by my prediction from last year: by the end of 2015, there will be no new orders for embedded seatback IFE systems on aircraft destined for routes of five hours or less.
The WISPs will see to that.
"Geotainment" is quickly emerging as a distinct category of IFE.
MondoWindow and a growing number of other companies have recognized the essential nature of location-based content for fliers, and are taking advantage of new technologies to give people what they really want. We call it "geotainment": entertaining, informative, and useful content about the real world, customized for the airborne armchair explorer. In the context of in-flight entertainment (IFE), geotainment is absolutely fundamental. The conventional moving map is always one of the most popular components of every IFE system that has a map. Why?Because, with the possible exception of the safety video, the map is the only IFE component that is relevant to every single passenger on the plane. Even better, the answers provided by moving maps — Where am I? When will I arrive? — are constantly changing, driving passengers to revisit the map throughout the flight.Now, what happens when you answer those two basic "where/when" questions with deeply engaging content? You've got geotainment. That five-second "where/when" query turns into an entertaining experience that provides deeper insights about the Earth and the passenger's own journey. That engagement can in turn translate into ancillary revenues through offers targeted around the geographic realities of location, destination, and time (of day/month/year), as well as the passenger's individual profile and preferences.We at MondoWindow have been hard at work building a platform specifically to serve interactive geographical content to air passengers. MondoWindow uses the aircraft's real-time location and destination as the building blocks for an entertaining and social experience built around the context of air travel. In fact, we've been refining geotainment concepts since 2004, when co-founder Greg Dicum wrote the first in his series of Window Seat books to help fliers understand the landscape from the air.We're not alone in our efforts to delight and inform passengers with geotainment. Hidden Journeys, a project of the Royal Geographical Society, has curated gorgeous content from their own archives and from across the web corresponding to dozens of air routes around the world. Georadio is working on custom-produced, geo-coded audio snippets that provide real-time narration about the landscape below. Jetway Geographer is publishing printed guidebooks to the sights, stories, and histories unique to specific airline routes. Rocks from Above is a well-illustrated blog — a "geologic field guide at 35,000 feet" — with copious examples of landforms linked to Google Earth. In addition to Greg's Window Seat books, America From the Air: A Guide to the Landscape Along Your Route is another book that makes use of printed route maps to interpret what's below. Landprints: On the Magnificent American Landscape is a classic of popular geology from 1984, and it also includes common air route maps cross-referenced with the text. A very recent development in the genre is Skyhook Wireless' recent release of an airborne location feature in its Android software development kit, which might enable a whole new batch of mobile developers to create geotainment apps for passengers.Geotainment is quickly emerging as a distinct category of IFE. The geotainment trend is powered by two key factors. On the ground, passengers are already used to location-aware personal devices, geotainment apps, and web mapping. In the air, the rollout of WiFi networks and Internet connectivity provide methods of acquiring real-time location in-flight and of delivering location-based content to all manner of devices in the cabin. (WiFi and/or connectivity are important because consumer-grade GPS chips in smartphones do not work in the sky nor at jet speeds; consequently, geotainment applications must acquire real-time flight location data via an onboard server or the Internet.)MondoWindow is creating the contextual platform for useful, beautiful, and profitable location services in the aircraft cabin. And we're in increasingly good company as geotainment emerges as a dynamic center of innovation within IFE. In fact, we see this as yet another indication that our vision for the future of IFE is coming faster than anyone had imagined. ++ ++ Will you be at the APEX show in Long Beach in September? So will we — get in touch and we'll get together!
The past two weeks have been really gruelling. First, I went with Maneesh Sagar, the Chairman of MondoWindow's Board, to the Aircraft Interiors Expo (AIX) in Hamburg. Just a few short days later, I was back in San Francisco at the Where conference. Both conferences are worldwide gatherings of key MondoWindow constituencies, but they could not be more different.AIX is the European counterpart to the September APEX show. As such, it attracts everyone in the world with an interest in what happens inside passenger aircraft—from airframers (not surprisingly Airbus had a huge presence) to airlines, from seat manufacturers to the people who make the bolts that hold the seats to the floor, and from caterers (poached scallops! vodka in a bag!) to in-seat power providers.
Maneesh makes a new friend in Hamburg.
And then there was in-flight entertainment. The IFE section of the huge show was like a conference in itself, and it was fascinating. There were the usual suspects, like industry leader Panasonic Avionics, whose notoriously closed-off "Death Star" booth reached new levels of arrogance, but there were also plenty of new entrants bringing a welcome exuberance to the show. In many ways, AIX 2012 was a major confirmation of what we at MondoWindow have been saying for some time: the emergence of consumer computing hardware in passengers' carry-ons is creating the conditions for a new style of IFE that serves content wirelessly into passengers' own devices. Indeed, Lufthansa Systems' BoardConnect, which debuted to its first public demonstration, won a coveted Crystal Cabin Award at the show.And BoardConnect wasn't the only one. There were systems from established companies like TriaGnoSys and Lumexis, convergent systems from connectivity providers like Gogo, Row44, and OnAir, and new offerings from entrants like VT Miltope, Bizzability, and others.All of these systems stream content to users' own devices, and all of them need a map. That's where MondoWindow comes in. Even aside from our revolutionary content and features, at its core MondoWindow is the only full-featured, browser-native moving map in existence. We received major validation at AIX when TriaGnoSys announced that MondoWindow's hybrid, on-board hosted configuration would be available as an OEM component of their IFE systems. And we're actively talking to just about every company in the space (if you missed us at AIX, get in touch).From "What?" to WhereWhile all this attention was very gratifying, it was a long time coming. When we first started talking about the MondoWindow concept at APEX 2010, we were met with blank stares and heads shaking "no." But at the same time, we were floating the idea within the community of web geographers—the people responsible for things like Google Earth and a whole lot more. The Where Conference is that community's annual confab, and the first time we went, in 2011, MondoWindow had just been launched in beta a month earlier. Everyone got it intuitively. The most common comment was "That's so cool! I've always wanted that!"
Telling the crowd about IFE at Where. More pix here.
This year was no different: presenting MondoWindow to digital geographers is the easiest sell imaginable. I gave a short, punchy Ignite talk, bringing people up to speed on the latest in the IFE world, and all week long people came up to me and said what a great idea they thought MondoWindow is.As always the show was a blur of technology and content partnership opportunities for us. In addition to our existing friends and partners Stamen Design (whose team built MondoWindow's core technology) and Bing (we use their map tiles), we had really great interactions with folks like ESRI (the granddaddy of GIS), DigitalGlobe (the provider of nearly all the satellite imagery you see online), and MapBox (who make the best online mapping tools around). The Where conference was also a chance to connect with other startups doing interesting things with location. It was fantastic to be able to talk to the people behind really cool initiatives like the Public Laboratory (they make low-tech kits that enable anyone to do really high-tech things), Hover (a very very cool 3D world), Kullect (like Pinterest for the real world), MyCityWay (an app that enables city exploration), and Discoverful (another real world, real-time sharing app).All of these initiatives are potential partners for MondoWindow. With one foot in IFE and one foot in the geoweb, we're in the unique position of being able to, on the one hand, provide a broader platform for interesting geo-tools and geo-content, and on the other hand, to bring airline passengers some of the most thoughtful, engaging and cutting-edge location services in existence.It's an utterly unparalleled situation: we are at home at both AIX and Where, with many friends and partners in both worlds. We've known this for a long time, of course—it's our distinctive value proposition—but attending both conferences back-to-back, exhausting though it was, really brought things home for us: MondoWindow is IFE and MondoWindow is geoweb.
Today we're very pleased to announce that MondoWindow is now available as an OEM component on wireless IFE systems from TriaGnoSys.What that means is that TriaGnoSys' customers—small fleets, regional airlines, and low cost carriers—now have access to the most advanced, web-native, in-flight moving map in existence. And, because of MondoWindow's built-in revenue streams, in many cases we'll be able to turn a necessary cost—the moving map—into a profitable ancillary revenue stream.It's a hybrid architecture, with MondoWindow's core elements hosted on-board the aircraft. So MondoWindow on TriaGnoSys products does not require connectivity in order to present passengers with a full range of location services. When there is connectivity, however, we can take things to an unprecedented next level by incorporating social media, networked gaming, real-time news and information, and real-time e-commerce.We're very excited to be teaming with TriaGnoSys. Even though they're celebrating their tenth year in business this week at the Aircraft Interiors Expo in Hamburg (where I'm writing this from, thanks to the wonders of jet lag), TriaGnoSys still has the nimbleness of a startup—something that lets the company see the appeal of doing things more than a little differently. (If you're at AIX now, come visit at booth 6B5.)Our joint vision is to offer the low cost and regional airline market—one of the fastest growing parts of civil aviation—the IFE quality and service passengers expect from much bigger carriers. At the same time, because many of these airlines are startups like us, there are many opportunities to work together with them to create never-before-seen custom implementations of location services combined with social media, games, and revenue streams. It's very exciting!
Here's an article by Mary Kirby of the Airline Passenger Experience Association (APEX).
Last weekend I was facing a 10+ hour flight from meetings in Frankfurt back to MondoWindow HQ here in San Francisco. Worse still, the longest leg, from London, was on a United 747 featuring truly old school IFE: no seatback systems, no wifi, no power supplies. Nothing but early-window hollywood content on a few hard-to-see, distorted, maladjusted overhead monitors. So I took matters into my own hands, literally: i loaded up my iPad with a few movie rentals, updated Instapaper and my subscriptions to The Economist and the New Yorker, made sure I had a bunch of music and games on it as well. For good measure I also had my iPhone (more music, games, and reading) and my laptop (sometimes work is entertainment too). For climb and descent, when the devices are off, I knew I could rely on United's Hemispheres magazine (it's quite good, by airline standards, thanks to INK's editorial team in New York). I also had a book and a few stories torn out of magazines that I've been meaning to read. And best of all, I had a window seat.It was not a bad ten hours at all. It went something like this:Hour 1As I said, Hemispheres Magazine isn't too bad at all, and it's not just because I've written for them in the past. This time I found an interesting article on post-boomers not wanting to take on high stress jobs that reminded me of a book idea my friend David Roberts from Grist has been contemplating. Naturally I wanted to send it to him — but couldn't. I took the magazine with me and sent him the link later.Hour 2Especially when it's dense subject matter, I still find a physical hardcover book superior to an ebook. I don't know why — it's just the way I was brought up I suppose. On this flight I read the last couple of chapters of Steven Pinker's eye-opening "The Better Angels of our Nature" — a look at the very encouraging long term historical trends in the reductions in violence at every level of human societies. I haven't read anything more secularly uplifting in years, and listening to Ella Fitzgerald simultaneously didn't hurt either. Hour 3Time for a movie. Before my trip I had canvassed my Facebook friends for movie recommendations. I rented a half dozen from iTunes (around $3 each, the deal is you have a month to start watching each movie, but once you start that film's gone in 24 hours). I found myself attracted to classics on this flight — I had never seen Citizen Kane before (even though somehow I already knew what "Rosebud" meant). In the middle of this magnificent film i figured out how to hang my iPad from the tray table in front of me, creating a DIY seatback system.
Hour 4After the film, and a walk around, I took out my laptop and spent a good while editing photos from a family visit to my sister's place in Jerusalem. If you've been there then you know the place is a photographer's dream. It was a real treat to spend a couple of hours on the computer without facebook, email, IM, and all the other distractions fighting for mindshare. I created several wonderful panoramas, adjusted colors and contrasts (I always shoot RAW, which requires more post-production, but in my view it's worth it), and edited it all down to a short, engaging slideshow for friends and family. For good measure, I put the slideshow on the iPad.Hour 5Flying through my reading: a story from Harper's on the gem trade (full of scammers), from the New Yorker on neuroscience and the perception of time (it's strange), and the New York Times magazine on the whiskey Ernest Shackleton took to Antarctica (recently discovered and re-engineered: it's delicious). Hour 6In his book "Cadillac Desert," Marc Reisnor wrote "I believe that anyone who flies in an airplane and dosen't spend most of his time looking out the window wastes his money." A case in point: I glanced out the window to see the Alberta Tar Sands projects in all their horrifying glory: massive holes in the Canadian Taiga, stretching over an area that took easily 30 minutes to fly across. This is precisely the kind of gift I think is most important from the window seat: a firsthand look at the things most of us will never see on the ground — in this case I was able to see an important economic, political, and environmental issue with my own eyes, making it all far more concrete to me. (To be fair, I was hoping to see it — as the author of the Window Seat books, I'm a confirmed and well-informed window gazer, but one of the things we're trying to do with MondoWindow is give everyone the opportunity to see and to understand things like this.)
Hour 7A perfect excuse from some extended leg stretching: I embarked on a wholly unscientific survey of IFE use in the center block of seats in the back of the 747, a total of 54 seats. Here's what I found:Sleeping: 10 (18%)Reading a book or magazine: 6 (11%)Watching the movie: 6 (11%)Using a digital device: 11 (20%)Hour 8When on earth is this flight going to end? Time for another movie, another classic: Goddard's "Breathless." It's a fantastic film, but how on earth can everyone smoke so much? Hour 9I spent much of the last hour gazing out the window. Coming back to Northern California at this time of year is light drifting into paradise: after the muddy browns of Europe and the stark planetary snows of the high Arctic, NoCal's lush green hills, pockets of woods, and bright fields of mustard blossoms — all framed by cottony clouds in a lowering, golden sun — is like arriving in Eden.Hour 10I landed, and proved my point: with a little advance planning, you can have all the customized IFE you can handle, and then some. In the future — the near future — I see this level of customization coming for everyone all the time; don't forget, this experiment was conducted using just one of the two prongs of IFE disruption: my tablet. Add true broadband and IFE as we know it is over.
And yet… flying is a very special situation, unlike anything else in most people's lives. I've described elsewhere how this represents a unique "use case" for those of us providing engagement to the airline passenger. To summarize, when flying, passengers…

TALLAHASSEE -- As Florida State prepares for its game against Bethune-Cookman, coach Jimbo Fisher is well aware of the fact that despite being a Football Championship Subdivision opponent the Wildcats could still give the Seminoles fits if not taken seriously.
Weve got a great opponent coming up this week in Bethune, Fisher said. Theyre 3-0 and averaging 38 points a game and giving up nine, thats less than we are. They went out and beat FIU 34-13 and handled them very easily.
As long as the Seminoles take a business-like approach Saturday night, they have the Wildcats outclassed in talent.
Coach Fisher always tells us, were not looking at our opponent, were facing ourselves. I believe if we go out there and do what we have to do, we will be successful, redshirt freshman quarterback Jameis Winston said. Theyre a great team, theyre gritty, theyre fast, athletic and they have a lot to prove. But were Florida State, we got to keep playing Florida State football and keep grinding no matter who were playing.
FSU has had little trouble scoring so far this season. Bethune-Cookman has given up fewer than 10 points per game this season, but the Wildcats have also yet to face an offense with the firepower of FSU.
Winston has one more touchdown pass than incompletion this season. He enters Saturday 40-for-45 passing for 570 yards and six touchdown passes. Just two of his passes have hit the ground two incompletions were caught along the sideline and one was intercepted.
Last week, after tossing that interception (his only one this season), Winston responded by going 13 for 13 for 196 yards and two touchdowns before making a third-quarter exit.
This week, with the Wildcats likely looking to shut down the Seminoles rushing attack, Winston could be looking at a big night.
They play a lot of Cover 4, and thats going to give us some big-shot opportunities, Winston said.
Bethune will likely be trying to jam the box after the Seminoles ran for 377 yards last weekend against Nevada. Both Karlos Williams and Devonta Freeman, a former Miami Central High star, eclipsed 100 yards, and six Seminoles scored touchdowns on the ground. This week, with starting right guard Tre Jackson back in the lineup, the running game could be even stronger for FSU.
Defensively, the Seminoles will be without two starters, sophomore defensive end Eddie Goldman and senior linebacker Christian Jones. Both are suspended for breaking undisclosed team rules. Defensive end Mario Edwards Jr. will also miss this game after having surgery on his hand last week.
That could be bad news for an FSU defense that is still struggling to adjust to new defensive coordinator Jeremy Pruitts complicated system.
The Seminoles should be able to handle themselves Saturday, but dont be surprised if the Wildcats give them a game.
Theyre a good football team, Fisher said. Theyve done a great job, [their] coach has done a tremendous job and theyve got athletes, and when you see the film, theyre a very well-coached football team.

ATHENS — It was a very good night for Mr. and Mrs. Ogletree.
That's because it was a great night for their two sons, both of whom play for the Georgia Bulldogs, 37-10 winners over Ole Miss on Saturday.
Alec Ogletree, a 6-foot-3, 241-pound linebacker. from Newnan, put up this stat line on defense – 11 tackles, an interception, a sack, a tackle for loss. Oh, and that tackle loss was good for two points.
"It was great," said Ogletree, "It was my first safety and my first interception, so it was kind of a big game."
Alec's twin brother Zander Ogletree score his first career touchdown on an eight-yard run. Also a junior, Zander plays fullback for the Bulldogs and got his first start of the season and just the second of his career on Saturday. The TD run was his only carry but he also had two catches for 12 yards and another good night of blocking.
"It was great to have my parents there," Zander said. "Me and my brother have been playing better since we grew up. For us to come to Georgia to play together and both have a great game like we did, it's a blessing. My Mom and Dad have been pushing us and pushing us and telling us to play hard to the best of your ability and play with your heart and that's what we did."
Said Georgia coach Mark Richt: "It was good to see Alec and Alexander make big plays for Georgia in a very big game. I'm sure their mom and dad are proud of that."
It hasn't been easy for either player to get to this point. Both players missed the first four games, Alec's due to an announced suspension, Zander for some reason that went unannounced. Alec, considered an NFL first-round draft prospect, moved immediately back into Georgia's starting lineup. Zander had been biding his time until injuries to starting fullback Merritt Hall (ankle) and backup Quayvon Hicks (concussion) forced them out of the lineup. Zander came in on the second play of the Florida game on Oct. 27 and has been holding down the position since.
"I've just been waiting for my name to get called and it got called tonight," Zander said. "I was able to get the ball and make a play."
With Alec's future next year very likely to be in teh NFL, the twin brothers are hoping they can extend their last season playing together. With a win over Auburn next week, Georgia will clinch an SEC Championship game berth and they'll be assured of 14 games together this season.
They're hoping this ends as a truly special season.
"We want to get back to the Dome," Alec said. "Guys around here have been working since last summer to get to the Dome. We want a different outcome when we get back there this time and we're looking much farther than that. We want to finish this season right and all our goals can still be accomplished."
Marlon Brown's status unknown
Nobody could — or would — say what the injury status was for Marlon Brown after Saturday's game. But when people like fellow wide receiver Tavarres King said they were "praying over him" on the sideline, you know know the prognosis can't be good.
Brown, a senior split end from Memphis, went down with a left knee injury with about 11 minutes remaining in the third quarter. The injury came in the midst of what was a big night for Brown. He was hurt at the end of a 30-yard catch and — including a 66-yard touchdown catch — he finished the night with a team-high 113 yards on three catches.
"Obviously it's something with his knee," Richt said. "We just don't know yet."
Georgia starting right guard Chris Burnette injured his left shoulder in the second quarter and did not return. The junior started his 21st game and 18th in a row.
Turnovers galore
Georgia and Ole Miss combined for four turnovers in five plays. It happened over a span of exactly one minute — from 6:58 to 5:58 in the second quarter.
"That was wild, wasn't it?" Georgia coach Mark Richt remarked. "What was good is it seemed like we got a lot of yards after our (takeaways). Glad it didn't end up hurting us."
The series began with Georgia's Keith Marshall fumbling on a run around left end midway through the second quarter. The fumble was caused by Ole Miss linebacker Denzel Nkemdiche, a redshirt freshman from Grayson who didn't get a scholarship offer from Georgia and said the game was "extremely personal" to him.
Ultimately the hot-potato exchange didn't lead to anything. Georgia eventually went for a first down on fourth-and-2 at the Ole Miss 43 and failed to complete a pass to Malcolm Mitchell. Then the Rebels had to punt to end their next possession, setting up the nine-play, 84-yard drive for the Bulldogs to take the lead before the end of the half.
Too many sacks
A week after not giving up a sack against Florida's vaunted defense last weekend, the Bulldogs gave up five in the first half to Ole Miss' unheralded squad. They did not give up any in the second half.
"We had some miscommunications here and there with our backs and with the protections and we didn't play good," center David Andrews said. "Those are the two answers. It was unacceptable. You never want your quarterback to get hit like that. We just had to wake up. That's what I kept saying."
It wasn't a huge surprise. Ole Miss came in averaging 2.75 sacks per game, which was fourth in the league. But the Bulldogs were giving up just 1.5 per contest, which was fourth best in the SEC.
Starts and stuff
Nose guard John Jenkins started Saturday's game. The 6-foot-3, 358-pound senior suffered a sprained ankle in practice Tuesday and did not practice Wednesday, so his status was considered questionable. Jenkins' start was the 16th of his two-year career in Athens and 12th in a row.
Also, Corey Moore got his first career start at wide receiver. Normally a strong safety on defense, the sophomore started on offense expressly to execute a crack-back block on the linebacker on a toss sweep. He executed his block to perfection, and Todd Gurley went 17 yards around right end on the opening play.
Sophomore cornerback Damian Swann had another big game. The Grady High grad had two fumble recoveries — returning them a total of 55 yards — a sack, a tackle for loss, a pass break-up and three tackles. . . . Saturday's game drew a larger than usual contingent of NFL scouts to Sanford Stadium. The Falcons, Cowboys, 49ers, Bears, Chiefs, Bucs and Vikings all had representatives on hand. At least three Georgia players have been projected by prominent analysts as potential first-round picks in next year's NFL draft: linebackers Jarvis Jones and Ogletree, both of whom are draft-eligible underclassmen, and Jenkins, a senior. Jones is ranked as the No. 1 prospect by ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr. Senior safety Shawn Williams also has been mentioned as a possible late first-rounder. … Punter Collin Barber had a 60-yard punt in the first quarter, his longest of the season. … The Oakland A's Gold Glove-winning right fielder, Josh Reddick, attended the game. He is from Effingham County. . . .And Georgia's homecoming queen, crowned at halftime, was Collette Toney, a senior from Snellville majoring in social studies education and history. Georgia improved to 72-17-2 on homecoming.

We had a mis step in the SC game. We can put all of that behind us now by going to Auburn next week and taking care of business. We are by far the better team, Now lets show everyone. Not sure how we would do against Bama in the title game, but for one game anything would be possible. I keep saying we like I am playing, I say we because I am part of THE DAWG NATION!

The very first offensive play from scrimmage was the toss sweep to Gurley around the right end…..went for 17 yards…and the coaches NEVER went back to that…..wonder why?
November 4th, 2012
8:50 am
not very optimistic about bama – but anything can happen as the Deacon said – too bad N. Dame did not lose – would put us 4th in BCS and a win against bama would = BCS championship. Need some help to get there now
November 4th, 2012
9:52 am
I just posted the same thought on Bill King's blog. I was so happy to see us start in the I formation and then run a toss sweep to Gurley. It goes for 17 yards and then we pretty much line up shotgun formation after that and Ole Miss gets 5 sacks.
Georgia played a completed 2nd half of football in all there phases which is a good improvement.
The toss sweep to the outside is like brussell sprouts to Bobo. It may make you feel good after you eat it and you know it is good for you, but you just can't resist the chocolate chip cookie (lining up in the shotgun formation).
November 4th, 2012
10:23 am
Don't you think we need too Offensive Coordinators? One can be Bobo when we need a passing play, but we need another who knows how to run the ball. What was the percentage of running to passong plays? Just asking?

Does anybody have an update on marlon brown? probably not….just checking though…..i'm praying he is not injured badly

Ga blows out auburn, ga so and tech, then, in a huge upset, beats alabama, who is overrated! alabama got a miracle win against lsu. Ga can get pressure on mccarron and get some turnovers. Ga 26 Alabama 23! Take it to the bank!!!! These dogs are for real.
November 5th, 2012
12:04 pm
Actually Just Asking . . .
For all the hate that Bobo gets, he called a great game this past weekend. Also, Murray's fake and then td to Marlon was sick, and I surprised he's not getting more love on that.

(Reuters) - Bank of America Corp
The move to back off on its plan at least until late 2013 comes amid a review of Bank of America's retail banking business, the Journal reported, citing people familiar with the bank's plans.
The bank is looking for ways to cut losses it takes on the 20 percent of customers who keep modest balances on deposits and do not use credit cards, mortgage loans and other products. They generally have under $50,000 in yearly household income, costing the bank on average a couple hundred dollars annually, the Journal reported.
A Bank of America spokesman was not immediately available for comment.
Fees are unpopular with customers as well as regulators who see them as punishing lower-income customers.

If you were dating someone who you really like, what do you do when their close friend or buddy makes a pass at you? Do you ignore it and hope they were kidding? Do you tell them what happened and let the chips fall where they may?
One of our readers is facing this dilemma. He thinks that if he tells his new romantic interest that her best friend propositioned him, she will get angry at him instead of the best friend. I have never been in this situation before but I figure telling the full truth is always the best option.
How do you tell someone that their friend ignored your shot at happiness because they were so focused on getting their own needs met instead?
By Wise Diva, Misadventures in Atlanta

If the friend received an erroneous vibe and reacted to it once and was turned down and all returned to normal, then i would leave it at that. You should allow for one misguided misunderstanding. If the friend continues to harass. I would defenetly tell my partner. Better me then someone else, let the chips fall where they may.
August 27th, 2013
7:09 am
Had that happen several times and kept that information to myself, i felt if i did say something it would cause drama. I am a big girl no need to go running to tell when i handled that myself.
He could tell his girlfriend she may have an idea that her b/f is a hoe. shrugs
August 27th, 2013
7:55 am
Good morning all!
I'll co-sign Lee. In general, it's better to keep this information to yourself because all it will do is cause drama.
I wonder if he said anything to the best friend to let her know that was not appropriate and not to be repeated?
August 27th, 2013
7:56 am
GOOD Tuesday Morning MIA!!!
Soooo, the best friend made a pass at her friend's boyfriend. . . well, well, well! The ONLY thing about him NOT telling his girlfriend is that the best friend can flip it and tell that he made a pass at her, which in turn will still cause drama. So, just because you don't say anything doesn't automatically mean that the mess won't hit the fan.
In the words of Usher: "If I'm gonna TELL it, then I gotta tell it ALL!" So, be prepared to tell the WHOLE story and to answer questions like did you flirt with her, how did you react when she did what she did, questions like that.
There are clearly some pieces missing from this scenario. . .
August 27th, 2013
8:19 am
good morning. I would def tell as I feel that someone who doesn't respect his/her friend should be blasted out. My husband, then bf took me to his friends get together. His friend cornered me and asked how my bf got me and that he has no game! Now someone who thinks this of my bf, does not need to be his friend.
August 27th, 2013
8:27 am
Tell it! I know I would. There would be no way that I would keep something like that under raps. By not telling, your already keeping secrets, living a lie with the friend who could then turn it around and use it against you. For all the reader know, this could be a set up by his gf to see what type of guy he is. Some ppl put their sate to the test to see how faithful they are which I think is childish but it happens all the time.
Good morning!
August 27th, 2013
8:32 am
Wouldn't matter. He would be the whipping post regardless. If he tells her, she will say that he edged it on and that her girlfriend would never do something like that. OR she will say that she was just being friendly and he is taking it the wrong way. OR she will say that he actually initiated the proposal and got mad when she said no.
If he doesn't tell her, she will say that he was keeping stuff from her. OR that he was actually planning on taking her up on it.
In this situation, the guy will always bear the brunt and blame for it. After all, only guys would do something like that, right?
August 27th, 2013
8:34 am
if it isn't a test then the readers' gf need to cut her friend loose. I can't tell you how many times I've had a gf to make a pass on my bf. It's insane!
August 27th, 2013
8:39 am
Good Morning ladies!
Why are women always think they are preventing something from happening by not telling the SO? U are doing your SO a favor by telling him their is a spy in his camp.
I like that MissMoni…Tell it all…Where u been?
Button excellent comment…I agree time out for keeping secrets. No true friend will hit on their BF mate…
I need to know if one of my dudes hit on you so I can kick him to the curb…That is disrespectful
August 27th, 2013
8:41 am
-Hi Durty! I've been here, but I've also been actually doing some work, LOL!!!
August 27th, 2013
8:42 am
SO Button what have you done in those situations regarding the GF hitting on your SO?
Hazel did u tell your husband what his friend told you?
August 27th, 2013
8:43 am
NO say it aint so Miss Moni…They have you doing some work…Your Government they really don't do any work after 8am right?
August 27th, 2013
8:50 am
Moni – I feel like there are some details being withheld. I want to know how the friend went about 'propositioning' him, what she said and how he responded to her. DETAILS….
Wise – Can you start providing us with more details going forward? It'll make for better responses since we'll have a better idea of what went down with these scenarios.
I've had a friend of a guy I date lie on me…he wanted to get with me and it just wasn't going to happen. To this day, if I saw him on the street, i'd cross it just not to interact with him. LIAR
August 27th, 2013

-Durty Ha, Ha, Ha!!! I'm making sure that you can continue to have your liberties!

August 27th, 2013
8:53 am
good morning. uggh. this is one of those janky topics (fitting for a janky morning). just too many angles. was the friend really hitting on the person or is the person one of those types that interprets every little thing as them being hit on? those folks that think everybody wants them. was the hitting on just some flirtatious words or did they lay hands on you? me? I'm not overly pressed about running back and telling. if anything old boy might just run back and tell on me saying something like "man, why you with her? that trick crazy. all I said was… and she hauled off and bust me in the head with a brick".
August 27th, 2013
8:55 am
SLimNu tell us how you really feel about dude…hehehehe
Wise Diva there was not a need in this situation, just someone (The BFF) wanting some of what her friend is getting…Ladies you have to be careful spilling the details about your SO putting it down…If the girlfriend is not getting any she will (WANT) some of that too…
August 27th, 2013
8:58 am
Durty – I kicked them all to the curb! I must add only one was a gf the others were just in my circle. I don't play that. I've witness serious damage for that knd of mess. Folks have done time bc a flirt that truned into something more serious and bc she wanted to keep it a secret it came out eventually Dude flipped on both of them.
August 27th, 2013
9:04 am
Some folks have no respect for what you have. I can't see how some women will fix their mouth to ask another woman how their man put it down in the bed. She actaully asked me that! insane. I had a gf ask me that question and I wanted to pop her in the neck but I refrained myself and excused myself from the table. She later apologized saying it's just girl talk blah blah blah. smh
August 27th, 2013
9:07 am
Moni/Durty – I'm just saying, he told friends and the ex (at a party no less) that when he bummed a ride from me he left his glasses in the back seat of my car. So he got someone to bring him to pick them up. He told them I came to the door in just a t-shirt and panties….WHICH WAS A LIE LIE LIE! So it had folks looking at me like I was crazy. Fast forward to a club on New Years….it was a lot of us there together, crowded as hell. The ex and I are walking through the crowd and here comes liar pants. He grabs my arm in the crowd and would not let me go. (alcohol obviously gave him some liquid courage). He didn't realize that the ex was holding my other hand to ensure we didn't get separated in the crowd. Next thing I know, i'm in a tug of war. My ex really wanted to whoop his butt but he knew then that buddy was crazy. lol
August 27th, 2013
9:11 am
hearing someone talk about their man sure in heck isn't enough to make me want him. I know chicks with some raggedy, busted, worthless, no count, pitiful A men. I also know chicks whose men are stand up guys. doing the right thing but they look or act like some straight up bumpkins. they love them and apparently dudes are doing what they do. all the hype in the world won't make me want them.
now for the spin, supposing, just supposing, your man is of the variety that I would want. well, then, Houston, we might have a problem. lol. now my "real" friends are safe from this. casual acquaintance chicks. whatever. it's a hard knock life.
August 27th, 2013
9:12 am
-Slim Wow, he was high on that liquid courage. Reason #101 why some folks just need to leave the alcohol alone, LOL!!!
August 27th, 2013
9:14 am
"readers", huh? yeah, ok…….smash 'em both and keep it movin……
Slim, who lied on you, sweetie? show me that punk!
August 27th, 2013
9:15 am
-Disco Don't tell me you gone do them like R. Kelly: "Don't bring your chick to the club when you first meet her." This is a very valid point, for in the beginning you don't really know what a person's motives are. They could just be dating you until someone better comes along.
If you KNOW that you have friends that will flirt, then you may want to wait before you do the official meet & greet in a group setting LOL!!!
August 27th, 2013
9:16 am
There is a chick I've discussed on here thats sort of um…..looose…Anyway, she told this married chick that if she didn't want her husband that she'd gladly take him off her hands.
August 27th, 2013
9:19 am
If you KNOW that you have friends that will flirt, then you may want to wait before you do the official meet & greet in a group setting
Moni – those would be the chicks i only hung around for a girls night out. She'd be like, dang Slim, I've never even met your dude. What's up with that? lol
August 27th, 2013
9:19 am
disco – now you do know some women just want to say " I gotcho man" lol
August 27th, 2013

9:21 am
Hello all
Simple, tell the friend to step off, don't tell the s/o anything, Act like you're grown, and handle your own business, don't run and tell mama!!
August 27th, 2013
9:23 am
LOL@disco. You got the brick out early today, girl.
@Slim: And I hope your response was "and you never will"
August 27th, 2013
9:24 am
MissMoni I want to thank you for working to keep me receiving liberties, I would also like a side order of MissMoni..Can you help me with that? lol
Blog Alert…Disco will make a play for your SO if she is digging him…
Button I like that, I am all for correcting and getting rid of janky folks…
August 27th, 2013
9:27 am
ITL – I tell them i'm dating Big Foot and the Lochness Monster
August 27th, 2013
9:28 am
disco – What does it take to get bumped up as a REAL friend, in your world…aka, friends enough not to try to take my dude???
August 27th, 2013
9:29 am
LOL. Good one, Slim. And you know there's still some chick that would be like, "Heeeeeey Sasquatch. How you don'?"
August 27th, 2013
9:29 am
button – for some it is about feeling like they took something from someone. chicks don't even want dude, just checking to see if they can pull him. it can still be legit though. the new couple could be a better fit than the old couple. these things happen. the "jilted" person just needs to get over it.
August 27th, 2013
9:30 am
-Durty Unable to help you with that side order, I'm a main dish type of woman!
August 27th, 2013
9:31 am
Your SO girlfriend is now your business because she hit on you…O.K.
August 27th, 2013
9:32 am
Hell yeah you tell your SO.
1) they have a right to know that they have a shady/messy friend,
2) as a male it gets you off the hook for the lies that will follow, and
3) you shouldn't – just out of loyalty – keep that information from your SO because of #1.
Good morning
August 27th, 2013
9:35 am
what about the whole phenomenon of shooting the messenger? granted, in the presented scenario YOU are the messenger still, are you all ready to let this friend go behind this SO? we're not necessarily talking spouse AND we all know SOs come and go and come and go and come and go.
August 27th, 2013
9:39 am
Her: my bff said you made a pass at her
Me, okay
Her: well didn't you or did you!!
Me: Ask her, cause when I want drama, I look at TNT TNT TNT!! Hope you and your bff have a nice time together.
And also, what may be a pass to me, may not have been meant to be one for you. I've had people say I made a pass/flirted with them, or someone else, and at the time, I didn't know that's what I was doing.
So I guess "imma flirt" so don't bring her round me unless you trust herrrrr
August 27th, 2013
9:40 am
As far as friends that try and "take" your SO, I've had a few.
There were many attempts and one successful (though, in fairness she was an ex CB).
No one can take what's mine (I mean, have you seen me?), but if any ever chose (including the ex CB), well, that's poor decision making and she deserved her fate.
Post script, we've all been in the same place ATSDT after their encounter and chopped it up with my boy, and neither of use acknowledged her presence.
August 27th, 2013
9:42 am
1) they have a right to know that they have a shady/messy friend, if they're your friend and you don't know they're shady, me telling you isn't going to change anything. Most of the time this isn't the first time they they have done it, just may be the first time they did it to you!
August 27th, 2013
9:43 am
Again, if we're dating, and my actions haven't proven me to be a man of my word – or at least trustworthy enough to be given benefit of the doubt, well, then we don't need to date anymore.
August 27th, 2013
9:44 am
disco – it's not about the level of the relationship whether it be a person your just dating or not, it's all about principal. Just bc the relationship might end dosn't mean it's open season to anybody who want to make a pass. Something tells me you're that woman who steps in other's relationship bc you feel it's going to end anyway.
August 27th, 2013
9:45 am
This is real simple. A friend of your SO steps to you, or say your bff's SO? You need to handle that, and with the swiftness. And everybody knows there are folks that try to holla that makes your skin crawl and you get it said right….the first time. Then there are those folks that you may say "shoo", but you know your dang self you aren't enforcing. Check folks right, the first time and you won't have them coming back again and again.
Now, I'm cool going either way, tell your boo or not. I've told bfs in the past that someone tried to hit on me in their circle, but that's only for their benefit, for them to know their friend ain't worth two wooden nickels rubbed together. But not so much for them to check the person. IMO, that's not necessary. We're adults, you ain't gotta run and tell. Again, nothing wrong with mentioning, but really IMO, you need to handle the disrespect. Let folks know where you stand. And if someone lies and flips the script and my boo falls for such foolishness, well that's not on me, that's a reflection of where we stand. If I know I'm not guilty, no matter if it comes up later, I'm not running, explaining nor hiding. Like I said chose who you gonna believe. BTW, this entire scenerio tetters on hs mess…IMO
And lastly, don't be that person that shows no respect or take no issue stepping our disrespecting your relationship, hollering at everything breathing, but snubbing and looking your nose down at folks that might take that ride with you. You're the head bum in that scenario…lol I've had friends to look their nose down or felt superior to other friends, but one wasn't really that far removed from the other.
August 27th, 2013
9:46 am
Clearly, your standard of trust (and for that matter respect) from the person you're sleeping with or calling an SO is different than mine.
The D doesn't do distrust, either take my word for it or leave me be.
August 27th, 2013
9:46 am
Been there done that. First time, I'd probably give you a pass with you knowing how disrespectful you are. If you're bold enough to do it again, I will tell my SO and let chips fall where they will. If my SO's friend doesn't care about his friend's feelings or his relationship, why should I care protecting him by not telling. By keeping silent it's almost seen as a second pass to some men.
Good morning.
August 27th, 2013
9:48 am
Dan, if you've earned that trust, then nothing would be said to you.
August 27th, 2013
9:50 am
Morning All!
I think that the first time, I would set the person straight myself and give them a warning. If they were disrespectful enough to do it again, then yes I would tell my S/O.
My close circle of friends, I can say with confidence (I think), would not overstep their boundaries. I did have one friend "joke" and say could she join us in my bedroom. Gave that one the side-eye.
August 27th, 2013
9:52 am
This is a good post…
1) they have a right to know that they have a shady/messy friend,
2) as a male it gets you off the hook for the lies that will follow, and
3) you shouldn't – just out of loyalty – keep that information from your SO because of #1.
This goes back to Telling the Truth in a relationship. You know when someone is offering you the bootey..Quit playing…When her girlfriend is rubbing on your arms and licking her lips at you she wants some dizzle..hehehehehe

Additional Reading > Primary sources.Mémoires de Catherine II, ed. by Dominique Maroger (1953; Eng. trans. 1955), is of great importance for the history of Catherine's beginnings and for an analysis of her character. This edition is not complete, but it constitutes a choice made among the various versions of the autobiography begun by Catherine; all versions stop very near to the date of her accession to power. Equally important are the Correspondance of Catherine II with Voltaire (published in various editions of the complete works of Voltaire, as well as in the Evdokimov edition of the complete works of Catherine II, 1893); the Correspondance avec le Baron F.M. Grimm (17741796), Grot edition (1878), is interesting for its autobiographical character; Grimm was Catherine's confidant. See also Lettres d' amour de Catherine II à Potemkine, Georges Oudard edition (1934), which unfortunately is edited without chronological order.

MIAMI (WKZO)- The Detroit Tigers led another game 1-0 going into the ninth inning, but this time they could not hold the lead. The Miami Marlins tied the game in the bottom of the ninth on an Ed Lucus two out single scoring Christian Yelich.
The Marlins then won in the 10th inning on a Giancarlo Stanton single to drive in Justin Ruggiano to give the Marlins a 2-1 victory. The Marlins were able to load up up the bases on two walks and a batter hit by pitch.
Evan Reed (0-1) takes the loss for the Tigers. Joaquin Benoit blew another save preventing Anibal Sanchez from getting his 15th win of the season. Sanchez went five innings giving up two hits and striking out eight. He lowered his ERA to 2.57, giving Sanchez the ERA title. Steve Cishek (4-6) gets the win for the Marlins.
The Tigers are now 6-13 in extra innings games on the season. The Tigers also broke the season record for strikeouts by a pitching staff in the season set by the Cubs in 2003. They now have 1,415 strikeouts heading into tomorrow's season finale looking to add to the record.
The Tigers only run came in the top of the fourth as Alex Avila hit a sacrifice fly that brought Prince Fielder home.
The Tigers look end the regular season with a win against the Marlins tomorrow. The Tigers send Justin Verlander (13-11 3.66 ERA) to the mound to face the Marlins as they counter with Henderson Alvarez (4-4 3.94 ERA). Broadcast time is 12:45 pm on AM 590 WKZO.

Tutorial-- Framed Fabric--
I found this cute frame at the dollar store; what a find! I bought four of them.
First, take out the glass inside and use it as a template. I used a pop tart box to make the squares.
Second, place the glass on the wrong side of the fabrics and draw a line. You will need about 1/2" extra around the line, so you can tape the fabric to the back of the cardboard.
On the wrong side of the fabric, place the cardboard that you cut out and tape the corners. (That way the corners will be less bulky.)
Tape the sides.
Put it in to the frame without the glass. I saved all my glasses, so in the future if I change my mind I can use the frame for something else.
It took me less than 30 minute to complete the project. I love quick and easy projects like this. On top of that the whole thing cost me about 4 dollars!
I took them to Rachel's room and did this:
and this:
I decided to go with the second option. I love the unified look. The great thing is I can always change the fabrics if I want to. I think I am going to make more of these for diffrent areas of my house.

Saw this link from Dollar Store Crafts. Very cute! I love the ribbon hangers. I'd like to offer a suggestion with the ribbon though:
Use the hanger on the back of the frame to actually support the frame's weight…then hang a nail higher up to loop the ribbon over. If you do it so the ribbon is taught, it looks like it's hanging on the ribbon but you don't risk ripping the ribbon from the weight of the frame.

Some of you had questions about which dollar store I found those frames. I found them at Dollar Tree. I don't think they have the exact frame at their stores anymore, but I think they have a web site that you can go to and maybe they still carry it there. Good luck finding them. For that frame, one doller is a real steal!

Thorne Research D-1,000 - 90 Vegetarian Capsules
It is essential to maintain healthy vitamin D levels throughout all stages of life, from fetal development to old age. Vitamin D helps protect a number of important functions in the body. The current recommended daily vitamin D intake of 400 IUs is based on the minimum allowance to protect against bone disease. However, an upward revision of the FDA's guideline is now under consideration in light of new research, especially pertaining to immune function. Cutting-edge research suggests serum vitamin D levels should be in the range of 32-80 ng/mL 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D). Although direct sunlight exposure is a good source of vitamin D, many people do not get enough sun due to season change, latitude, or lifestyle. Therefore, vitamin D supplementation can be of great benefit in these cases.
Vitamin D functions as a hormone that regulates calcium metabolism and supports cardiovascular health, bone, muscles, and immune function. Also, epidemiological studies show higher serum Vitamin D levels are associated with a healthier lifespan.
A Vitamin From The SunHumans make Vitamin D from exposure to ultraviolet radiation from the sun (or tanning beds). A cholesterol-like molecule, 7-dehydrocholesterol, is converted in the skin to a pre-vitamin D molecule, which is then converted to 25-hydroxy Vitamin D (25(OH)D) in the liver. This form of Vitamin D is converted when necessary to active 1,25-dihydroxy Vitamin D. Laboratory tests of serum 25(UH)D can detect when the body has a sufficient amount of Vitamin D.
How Much is Recommended?The amount of vitamin D needed to achieve minimum vitamin D sufficiency (commonly defined as a 32-ng/mL 25(OH)D blood level) depends on many factors and can vary significantly from individual to individual. Thus, the requirement for vitamin D supplementation needs to be individualized. Thorne's D-1,000 supplies 1,000 IU of pure, vitamin D3 in each vegetarian capsule. This potency is ideal for maintaining optimum vitamin D levels in healthy individuals. Most Vitamin D experts recommend at least 1,000 IU of supplemental Vitamin D daily, and 10,000 IU or more might be necessary for some people. Other experts recommend weekly dosing of 25,000-50,000 IU Vitamin D3. Also, to acutely optimize the immune response, Dr. John Cannell, Executive Director of the non-profit Vitamin D Council, recommends up to 2,000 IU per kilogram body weight for 3-5 days.
Thorne Takes Purity to Another LevelSome vitamins, because of their potency, are usually given in very small amounts. Examples of such "micro-dose" vitamins include vitamin D, vitamin K, and vitamin B12. Most dietary supplement manufacturers purchase "micro-dose" vitamins from raw material suppliers as premixed dilutions, meaning the vitamins (in powder form) are mixed with other powdered substances that in turn make it easier for the manufacturer to handle and mix a larger quantity of raw material. Unfortunately, the powdered substances used in these premixed dilutions frequently contain potentially detrimental ingredients such as lactose and also the preservatives BHT, BHA, sodium benzoate, and sorbic acid.
At Thorne Research, their promise is to give you the purest supplements humanly possible. Therefore, they do not purchase premixed dilutions of any "micro-dose" vitamins. Instead, Thorne purchases pure, undiluted vitamins and creates their own dilutions when it is necessary to do so, using pure, hypoallergenic powders, such as magnesium citrate or plant cellulose The resultant premixture is then added to the dietary supplement being made, ensuring the proper amount of each pure nutrient is contained in each capsule.
Dr. Michael Lebowitz D.C. Recommends:We are all aware of how necessary vitamin D is for immune and endocrine support and bone density. Most of us don't spend enough time outdoors, or we live in climates with inadequate sunshine or use skin lotions that block UV absorption. D-1,000 is a great maintenance product, while D-10,000 is for restoring deficiencies of this essential nutrient.
Thorne Research's MissionAt Thorne Research, their mission is to enhance the health and well-being of people by providing superior dietary supplements that have the highest level of quality and purity – thereby creating the most respected and valued company in the dietary supplement industry.
The Thorne Difference. For more than 25 years, Thorne has relentlessly pursued the highest possible quality and bioavailability in dietary supplements. At Thorne, they actually manufacture products that they sell – a key difference that allows Thorne to control every aspect of the manufacturing process and ensure that every Thorne product is in pure, completely hypoallergenic form, and without the common additives, flowing agents, and binders used throughout the industry.
A few other companies have tried to do what Thorne does, and many others claim to have the same philosophy and quality, but nobody has been able to duplicate what Thorne's clients call "Thorne Quality." Thorne has changed the industry in many ways over the past two decades, and they continue to raise the bar and set new standards in product formulation, raw material purity, manufacturing, and quality control.
Thorne's Commitment to PurityPractitioners have become accustomed to seeing the vague "We use only the purest ingredients" in the promotional materials of almost every dietary supplement company. Perhaps these companies truly believe that. Perhaps they don't know any better. Nevertheless, Thorne Research, for more than 25 years, has been the standard by which companies in the industry are judged for product purity. Practitioners rely on Thorne as the company they trust for their extremely allergic, chemically sensitive, and immune-compromised patients.
Purity Takes Extra EffortFor example, instead of purchasing prediluted vitamin D, as other companies do, Thorne performs its own dilution to avoid detrimental ingredients, such as the preservatives or lactose that are found in many commercially available dilutions. Why must vitamin D be diluted? Because in its pure form, it is too concentrated to safely blend into a vitamin product. Pure vitamin D is 40 MILLION International Units (IU) per gram. The RDA for adults is 600-800 IU per day. To ensure proper mixing, it must be made into a dilute powder that flows and does not lose potency. So, unlike companies that use prediluted vitamin D that contains unacceptable excipients and preservatives, at Thorne, pure pharmaceutical vitamin D is first blended with pure mixed tocopherol vitamin E, and the resultant stable vitamin D is then blended with hypoallergenic cellulose powder. The final powder is blended in a large tumble blender and subsequently analyzed. Not only is the final product stable; it is also hypoallergenic and can be mixed homogeneously and at a safe level with other powders. Just as with vitamin D, Thorne utilizes similar processes for other raw materials, such as vitamin K, leaving it to other companies to purchase commercially available raw materials filled with unacceptable ingredients and preservatives.
Ingredients You Don't WantMagnesium Stearate: Good for speed-hungry encapsulating machines. Not necessarily good for you. Manufacturing encapsulated dietary supplements isn't easy. Pure powdered ingredients are difficult to mix because they are either extremely dry, sticky with botanical oils, or attract unwanted moisture. So most manufacturers add magnesium stearate and other agents such as lactose and dextrose to make the powder flow quickly and easily through their high-volume machines. Problem is, these additives may compromise the bioavailability of the nutrients in the supplement, and might cause allergenic problems. At Thorne, they take a different approach.
Thorne will never utilize large fatty acid excipients in its manufacturing processes – ingredients such as magnesium stearate or stearic acid. These excipients are utilized as flowing agents to ensure that maximum productivity is obtained from capsuling and tableting machines. There are documented detrimental effects directly attributed to long chain fatty acids utilized as manufacturing flowing agents. Every qualified pharmaceutical compounder recognizes that large fatty acids, such as magnesium stearate, can interfere with product dissolution and influence absorption. Virtually all companies, because of the economic impact, ignore this data. As with most industries, the bottom line dictates the level of quality. The dietary supplement industry has one exception: Thorne Research, the company that does not compromise. Nevertheless, if a company cannot manufacture products without using detrimental excipients, they should not allude to being either "hypoallergenic" or "pure."
The Bottom Line?Thorne is the only hypoallergenic dietary supplement manufacturer with the highest degree of purity that you – and your most severely allergic, chemically sensitive, and immune-compromised patients – can truly trust.
Quality Ingredients: A Higher StandardAt Thorne, they are committed to setting a higher standard of quality when it comes to ingredients. To produce their truly hypoallergenic encapsulated supplements, Thorne uses only the purest and finest ingredients available.
Every manufacturer has two basic options when purchasing raw materials: purchase either truly pure raw materials, or purchase raw materials to which substances have been added to facilitate manufacturing. This fundamental dilemma translates to these very typical questions: "Do I purchase pure vitamin C or vitamin C with additives?" "Do I purchase pure B vitamins or coated B vitamins for taste masking?" "Do I purchase pure enzymes such as pancreatin, pepsin, and bromelain or enzymes diluted with lactose?"
There are few commercial sources for vitamins B12, D, K, or biotin that are not diluted with substances such as lactose, cornstarch, and preservatives such as BHT. That's why Thorne developed methods that allow them to use pure, undiluted sources of these nutrients – and many others. It's just one more example that when it comes to quality, what everyone else accepts as an industry standard isn't good enough. While some companies say they are raising their standards....at Thorne they set them.
Store tightly sealed in a cool, dry place.

Are Oil Prices All Set to Burn Investors?
Madhuchhanda is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
A couple of weeks ago, when crude oil prices were skyrocketing, many analysts came up with different explanations as to why crude oil would reach $140 and some said it would go to $180. With the recent steep drop in prices, however, that doesn't seem possible to me anymore.
Crude oil prices fell sharply and suddenly, with oil at $90 a barrel for the first time in almost eight weeks. The Energy Department said total US Fuel use decreased 1.1 percent in the four weeks endedSeptember 21st. It is very likely that the price of crude oil will continue to decline because for the first time in a decade, supply is exceeding demand.
Why this happened
The sudden drop in oil prices somewhat shocked the global market. But if you think about it, this really isn't that much of a surprise. Since March — for the first time since 2006 — oil production has been above consumption level. With Gas Energy satisfying most of our demands, the market for fuel is gradually dwindling. As I had mentioned in my previous article, the recent boom in the Shale Gas industry has led to diminished demand for oil supply.
According to the energy intelligence group, global oil consumption has been declining since the end of 2011, falling to 88.5 million barrels per day at the end of April, from 90.4 million barrels per day in late December 2011. For the first time, we are producing more than we need! The price drop was, hence, inevitable
(Source: Businessweek Website)
The market view
Brent oil for November settlement dropped 41 cents, or 0.4 percent, to $110.04 a barrel on the London-based ICE Futures Europe exchange. The European benchmark grade's premium to West Texas Intermediate in New York widened to $20.06, the largest gap based on settlement prices since Aug. 16.
Energy stocks too are broadly lower with the NYSE energy sector index falling 1.1% and the S&P energy index sliding about 0.7.
Since two-thirds of the price of gasoline is determined by the price of oil, that should continue to lower prices at the pump. Gasoline inventories slid for a ninth week, down 481,000 barrels to 195.8 million, and distillate fuels, which include diesel and heating oil, decreased 482,000 to 127.7 million. At the end of May, the average price of a gallon of gasoline in the U.S. was $3.66, 12¢ lower than it was a year ago, providing a welcome relief to vehicle owners.
Ramifications of Oil Drop
Oil's price move has had a major effect across oil and gas ETFs and stocks. But the main question remains: what effect would softer oil prices have on earnings in the future of E&P companies? Let us have a look at some of the major players in this field.
Bonanza Creek's (NYSE: BCEI) primary asset is about 63,000 acres in the Niobrara and its oil/natural gas sales split is 75%-25%. Currently analysts are estimating sales of $233 million for 2012 and $361 million for 2013, generating EPS of $1.64 and $2.68. Just a $10 drop in oil prices would reduce the EPS to $1.33 for 2012 and to $2.18 for 2013. At the current $18.20 stock price that would translate into a next year P/E of 8.4. The stock is clearly cheap, and we can probably expect it to fall some more.
Carrizo Oil and Gas Inc. (NASDAQ: CRZO) has 41,000 oil acres in Eagle Ford, 58,000 acres in Niobrara, some natural gas properties, a smallholding in the Utica and a share in a North Sea oilfield that it plans to sell in 2012. Excluding the North Sea asset, its oil / natural gas sales mix is 75%-25%. Analysts are forecasting sales of $428 million for 2012 and $636 million in 2013, with EPS of $2.46 and $4.57. A further $10 drop in oil prices would cut EPS to $1.97 in 2012 and $3.76 in 2013. Currently the stock is $24.68 and, with that lower oil price, it is estimated to drop further.
Northern Oil and Gas Inc. (NYSEMKT: NOG) stock analysis shows similar results. Northern has approx 170,000 acres in the Bakken and produces a very high oil/gas mix of 95%-25%. NOG's earnings have also been softening recently. Analysts are forecasting sales of $310 million in 2012 and $435 million in 2013 with EPS of $1.20 and $1.78. Oil $10 lower would translate to EPS of $0.88 in 2012 and $1.36 in 2013. With the stock trading at $17.20 these low-ball EPS figures equate to a next year p/e of 12.6. Comparatively, this looks not so bad, but again, I would not advise investors to invest in it just yet.
Remember, a $10 difference in a barrel of oil is a move of $10,000 per contract. Based on that, it is easily discernible that future earnings for the crude oil producers are not looking up. Companies like United States Oil and Plains Exploration and Production Company are reporting similar low revenues.
With the current low demand, it is unlikely prices are about to rise anytime soon. Energy Sectors dealing purely in oil and oil products are now on a precarious edge. With further drop in oil prices, revenues might be sufficiently down to cause company officials significant worry.
In such an event, I would advise investors to stay away from such companies. If you were planning to invest in oil stocks, this would be the perfect time to re-think that decision.

Open Source Cellphone: Openmoko GUI with New Look
The Openmoko project has released a new style guide for the Open Source-based Neo1973 cellphone. It is aimed to facilitate use of the cellphone.
The Openmoko Project has once more joined forces with OpenedHand, and reworked the GUI and interfaces of the free Neo1973. According to Sean Moss-Pultz, this was prompted by various emails with suggestions and tips. The first applications to use the revised framework have already made their way into the Subversion repository as OM-2007.2. They include a dialing interface for the phone, a contact manager and a feed reader.
The Neo 1973, a Linux-based cellphone by the Openmoko project which is distributed by Taiwanese vendor FIC.
The new style guide is available from the OpenMoko Wiki. The biggest changes affect the the user interface. It has now been modified to match the hardware and shape of the Linux smartphone. Visual enhancements should help to improve the phone's performance, and reduce memory requirements. Various simplifications and modifications will help to make finger-typed input far more precise, removing the need to use a stylus. To improve clarity, the number of objects on the display has been reduced, and tabs have been introduced.
At the end of his message Moss-Pultz emphasized the fact that the complete software and especially the user interface are still under development. The project will be looking to draft a comprehensive roadmap for future software development in the near future.

In Early days Khagaria district was a part of the district of Munger, as a subdivision. The sub-division of Khagaria was created in the Year 1943-44.

For the second time in as many months, a BASE jumper has died in a leap at southern Utah's Zion National Park. Another BASE-jumping death also occurred over the weekend in Grand County.
Park spokeswoman Aly Baltrus said Monday that in the latest case, the jumper was reported overdue Sunday morning. A Grand Canyon National Park helicopter crew was called in and located the body about 3 p.m. Sunday below the West Temple peak in the park's southern area.

As of Monday, the remains still had not been recovered due to difficult terrain and crosswinds that are treacherous for helicopters, Baltrus said. She said it could be "several days" before search-and-rescue crews are able to retrieve the body, which she did not further identify, saying the victim's name and gender were being withheld pending notification of kin.
In February, 28-year-old Amber Bellows became the first person to die in a BASE-jumping accident at the park, known for its soaring canyon walls and spires.
BASE jumping — leaping with a parachute from tall structures such as buildings, bridges and natural features — is illegal in the park.
Bellows was with her husband of two weeks, Clayton Butler, when she leaped from 7,276-foot Mt. Kinesava on Feb. 8. Her parachute failed to open properly as she plunged toward the canyon floor.
Butler had been cited for a misdemeanor for BASE jumping in the park, but federal prosecutors dismissed the charge, declaring it was not in the interest of justice to prosecute.
On Friday night, a 35-year-old man leaped to his death while BASE jumping into Grand County's Mineral Canyon. His body was recovered by search-and-rescue personnel Saturday.
The Grand County Sheriff's Office identified the victim as Kevin Morroun, who worked for Skydive Moab.

Lol at the commentswhat the fuck is this? you hired this nobody over kol and bekah? fuck you plec ffuck you i hope you get sodomised in hell This guy looks like Pharrell Williams! Why didn't they hire the real one?
I'm going to reserve judgment until I actually see the spinoff but first impressions are not great. I'm not feeling him.
they're both already talking on twitter as if they're best buds or something.That is awesome. Joseph really takes charge eh? No wasting time for him. He wanted a love interest, and got that. Now there's a spin-off. And when he signed on, he was the only original! Very driven. I like that.
Claire definitly should be on the spin-off. So on board with that. I have this sneaking suspicion though, that Rebekah is going to get exactly what she wanted, and become human again.
I have a feeling her and Matt aren't over yet either.
If JP moved all the Originals onto the spin-off (with only occasional crossovers), what kind of drama would they have in MF? Don't get me wrong. Its what I want. I would've preferred if Fin hadn't died either. A full house of dysfunctional parentless siblings in the town they founded. But I'm just wondering what the hell will happen to TVD if all remaining originals left. Silas maybe?
