New planting time insecticide system introduced
Innvictis Crop Care, LLC, www.innvictis.com, announced the launch of Nirvana in time for the 2014 growing season. Nirvana is a patented formulation catalyst that allows the use of standard EC formulated insecticides to be mixed with liquid fertilizers for use at planting to protect against soil insects.
"This has been an incredibly difficult nut to crack," says Greg McManic, director of research and development for Innvictis. "Getting pesticides to effectively mix with starter fertilizers is very challenging simply due to the chemical composition of the fertilizers and the EC-based insecticides. After many, many iterations, we found a unique combination of chemistries that will serve as a bridge to connect the fertilizer and pesticide in a consistent and uniform mixture. Nirvana is chemically formulated to provide that bridge and be the catalyst that brings it all together."
Casey McDaniel, commercial director for Innvictis, says "Frankly, we almost gave up in our quest to create Nirvana. It took a long time to hone in on a formula that we could commercialize." "Nirvana opens the door to a tremendous amount of flexibility for dealers and farmers. Until now, there has only really been one liquid option. Nirvana will allow dealers and farmers to choose from a broad array of EC-formulated insecticides to better defend their corn against below ground insects. Innvictis has a broad line of insecticide solutions including our Reveal and Ravage insecticides."
Liquid fertilizers and EC-formulated insecticides are chemically incompatible and will quickly separate and stratify in conventional mixtures. Nirvana connects the two molecules and holds them together in a chemical bond for a period of time allowing farmers to conveniently mix and apply starter fertilizer and insecticides in one application.
Nirvana is expected to be available in time for the 2014 planting season in limited quantities with full availability expected for the 2015 planting season.

Streisand, Minnelli pay tribute to Marvin Hamlisch

(photo credit:REUTERS/Lucas Jackson)
NEW YORK - Three of America's leading stage performers - Barbra Streisand, Liza Minnelli and Aretha Franklin - paid tribute to Marvin Hamlisch on Tuesday, honoring the late composer for his contributions to Broadway and movies, as well as their personal lives.The invitation-only tribute for the composer of numerous hit records, movies and musicals such as "A Chorus Line" was held at the New York's Juilliard School for the Arts where the Jewish musician studied as a boy after three years earlier displaying at the age of four a gift for mimicking music.Hamlisch died after a brief illness in Los Angeles on August 6 at the age of 68, causing an outpouring of grief from well-known entertainers and fans and prompting Streisand, Hamlisch's friend for the past 45 years, to organize the tribute.Streisand performed "The Way We Were - one of Hamlisch's best known songs and one of Streisand's biggest hits - in the tribute's finale. She also recalled how they first met in 1963 when Hamlisch was the rehearsal pianist for Streisand's movie Funny Girl, who would also on occasion fetch the cast coffee."Because I didn't drink coffee, he was assigned to get me a chocolate doughnut," Streisand told the laughing audience filled with friends, family and stars including Michael Douglas, Sarah Jessica Parker and lyricists Alan and Marilyn Bergman. "But instead of just one, he always brought me two and so our love affair began."Streisand told how she forged a friendship with the New York-born composer based on a shared passion for "music, film and food," and "without explaining why or how, we understood each others anxieties," while joking about their shared Jewish heritage.They ended up with a long history of working together, including Hamlisch's turn as musical director and arranger of Streisand's 1994 US concert tour as well as writing the score for Streisand's 1996 film, The Mirror Has Two Faces. Hamlisch had called Streisand "the best voice there is."Minnelli: He was a constant in my lifeEarlier Liza Minnelli, who performed "If You Really Knew Me" from Hamlisch's Tony-nominated 1979 musical, "They're Playing Our Song," said she met the composer, "when I was 14 and a half, and he was 15 and three-quarters," and soon became best friends: "He was one of my few constants that I had in my life."Aretha Franklin sang a rousing version of Hamlisch's power ballad "Nobody Does It Better," which he wrote as the theme song for the 1977 James Bond film "The Spy Who Loved Me." She inserted the lyric, "Marvin, you are the best" to audience cheers before lowering her voice for the spiritual ballad "Deep River."Other performers included Chinese pianist Lang Lang, British stage singer Maria Friedman and trumpeter Chris Botti who all performed songs from the 1975 musical "A Chorus Line," for which Hamlisch won a Tony award and a Pulitzer Prize and which at the time became the most successful show on Broadway.Hamlisch worked right up until the days before his death and the tribute showed off one of his more recent songs about his love for life, "While I Still Have The Time," from the Jerry Lewis stage-adapted comedy musical, "The Nutty Professor," which opened this year.Hamlisch had the rare distinction of winning Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony awards.His wife, Terre Blair Hamlisch, began the tribute recalling how Hamlisch often said he believed in the power of music to connect people, and Streisand ended it 90 minutes later.A scholarship program at The Juilliard School was established in Hamlisch's memory.

Publication Date : 16-02-2013
Fifty per cent of Japanese respondents to a recent opinion poll consider Japan-US relations "good" or "very good", an increase from the 35 per cent who said so in the previous poll taken in November and December 2011.
Only 27 per cent said the bilateral ties are "poor" or "very poor", down from 41 per cent in the previous joint poll conducted by The Yomiuri Shimbun and Gallup.
This marks the first time the number of respondents with a positive impression of Japan-US relations has exceeded that of people with negative impressions since 2009, when the Democratic Party of Japan came into power.
In the United States, 52 per cent said relations between the United States and Japan at present are "good" or "very good", unchanged from the previous poll.
In Japan, 74 per cent of respondents support the policy of Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's Cabinet aimed at strengthening the Japan-US alliance.
The improved view among Japanese regarding the bilateral ties is apparently due to the Liberal Democratic Party's regaining power and the ongoing standoff between Japan and China over the Senkaku Islands in Okinawa Prefecture.
The joint opinion poll was conducted in late January in Japan and the United States, before the announcements that a Chinese Navy ship had locked fire-control radar onto a Maritime Self-Defence Force destroyer and a nuclear test had been conducted by North Korea.
Additionally, the percentage of Japanese respondents who consider Japan-China ties to be "poor" or "very poor" increased from 61 per cent in the previous survey to 85 per cent, the highest figure since 2000, when interviews by telephone were first conducted.
Eighty-eight per cent of Japanese respondents said they trust China "not very much" or "not at all", up from the previous survey at 85 per cent and marking the highest figure since the poll incorporated the question in 2004.
The percentage of US respondents who said they trust China "not very much" or "not at all" decreased by one percentage point to 63 per cent.
Concerning the row between Japan and China over the Senkaku Islands, 82 per cent of Japanese said Japan and the United States should cooperate in coordinating a response to China. In the United States, 57 per cent said the same.
In a multiple choice question regarding North Korea, when asked which issues Japan and the United States should work together on, 93 per cent of Japanese and 91 per cent of US respondents chose "Getting North Korea to abandon its nuclear weapons programme".
Asked which countries or regions they think could become a military threat to their home country, China topped the list at 79 per cent in Japan for the first time, followed by North Korea at 77 per cent. Multiple answers were allowed.
On the same question in the previous survey, North Korea led responses with 84 per cent, followed by China at 80 per cent.
Concerning the Trans-Pacific Partnership free trade negotiations, the percentage of respondents who believe Japan should join the discussions exceeded that of those who do not think so in both Japan and the United States, with 49 per cent agreeing in Japan and 71 per cent in the United States.
The telephone survey was conducted from January 25 to January 28 in Japan and from January 21 to January 27 in the United States, with 1,001 eligible voters in Japan and 1,005 eligible US voters giving valid answers.

Brilliant fun film. The funniest dude, the man, Jason Mewes being all Boing! and shit. Cute girls, Mewes and not one but two horror icons make this a classy homage to eighties horror but also a good watch in its own right. 8/10 :D

One of my all time favourite movie! Hope they make Freddy VS Jason 2 but add another horror icon Michael Myers to the mix! Ohh that would be so wicked!
|Posted by Spy_Smasher 1 year, 1 month ago
Keep in mind the basis for comparison I'm using when I say this one one of the better Freddy or Jason movies that came out of the 1980's - 1990's from the original runs of both characters. The plot is, of course, thin and the idea is to do something to run both characters together. I like the way they did it. Get a pizza and have fun.

RAGS TO RICHIE: On Tuesday, H&M marked the midseason of "Fashion Star" at its Fifth Avenue store, with two of the three judges, John Varvatos and Nicole Richie, in attendance. (Uberpregnant Jessica Simpson presumably couldn't make the journey out East.)
RELATED STORY: The Reality of 'Fashion Star' >>
Richie, wearing a dress from her Winter Kate collection, couldn't conceal her enthusiasm about the NBC show. "It's a new concept and we weren't sure if it was going to work until America actually watches the show, but it seems to be, and these clothes are selling out almost immediately," Richie said, admitting that she herself was among the shoppers and recently picked up a white dress by contestant Sarah Parrott at H&M. Parrott was there that night, as were many of the other designers from the show.

In their gracious concession speeches, his Democratic opponents Walter Boasso and Foster Campbell and independent John Georges also called on their supporters to rally behind Jindal.
While this sunshine-and-rainbow honeymoon will end the minute that Jindal's sworn into office, the temporary truce is welcome ' especially by my e-mail inbox. For the past four months, I've been flooded with a dizzying 10-20 campaign announcements an hour. In the final weeks leading up to the election, it all blended into a blur of LOOK AT THESE ENDORSEMENTS and JOE MISREPRESENTED MY POSITION ON HEALTH CARE and WE JUST RAISED $10,000 and THEY'RE RUNNING A DIRTY CAMPAIGN and WATCH THIS YOUTUBE VIDEO and MY OPPONENT HATES CHILDREN AND PUPPIES, until I was ready to take a sledgehammer to my computer monitor.
And that doesn't even take into account letters to the editor. Campaigns bring out some of the most, shall we say, spirited letters. One anonymous writer called The Independent "a slime bag group of radical disgusting right-wing a--h---s," while regular reader Roder Russo of Youngsville says The Independent is "not interested in facts only the typical liberal hyper filly, innuendos and lies."
There will still be plenty of those types of missives sparked by the statewide runoffs for attorney general and commissioner of agriculture and forestry, where you can take it to the bank that AG candidates Royal Alexander and Buddy Caldwell and Ag commish candidates Bob Odom and Mike Strain will be smiling for the cameras and scratching and clawing like vultures over a carcass behind the scenes. There are also runoffs in a number of local city council races and state representative races.
But it's all over in the race for the state's top spot. Like it or not, Jindal is the new leader of Louisiana.
Longtime Louisiana political analyst and demographer Elliot Stonecipher presented some interesting theories regarding Jindal's future at his recent Oct. 3 Lafayette speech as part of The Independent Weekly's Lecture Series. Stonecipher believes that for Jindal to have a real shot at meaningful ethics reform and substantive legislative changes, our new governor is going to have to show voters how the sausage is made.
Stonecipher may be onto something. In Jindal's acceptance speech, he promised: "If and when folks try to stop [ethics reform], I will call them out. If and when people try to throw in amendments designed to derail ethics reform, I will call them out."
Go for it. Name names. Point the finger at legislators who load up bills with unrelated pork and poison pills and delay the process with procedural nonsense.
That cuts both ways. Members of the Legislature, whether they're Democrat, Republican or independent, need to have the courage to stand up to Jindal and similarly call him out if they believe he's pushing legislation that would take Louisiana down the wrong path. Battles between governors and the Legislature are nothing new, but far too often it descends into rote partisan posturing. Both sides would do well to tone down the sniping and grandstanding and give voters an honest, unfiltered peek at some of the ridiculous stunts pulled behind closed doors.
How will this factor into Jindal's ability to lead? Stonecipher has another theory worth keeping in mind: one of the reasons the state Republican Party is so united behind Jindal is because the national Republican Party views Jindal as a rising star. He represents a potential national voting base that's traditionally eluded Republicans, even more so in recent years: young minorities. With that in mind, the national party won't wait too long before bringing Jindal up on the national stage ' possibly even as a vice presidential candidate on the 2012 or 2016 ticket.
Using Stonecipher's hypothesis, Jindal can make some bold moves and fail. If his major policy initiatives are thwarted by the Democratic-majority Legislature, the national party can hold Jindal up as a candidate who vigorously tried to enact change but was derailed by partisan politics. If he succeeds, he'll have a positive track record to run on, and the national party won't risk the potential damage from any Jindal missteps in a second four-year term.
In either scenario, Jindal's likely a one-term governor. Here's hoping he makes the most of it.
School board members Mark Babineaux, Hunter Beasley and Tehmi Chassion can vote to fire Cooper — because we all know that's exactly what they'll do.
District 2 school board candidate Simon Mahan is hoping to unseat first-term incumbent and former Carencro Mayor Tommy Angelle in the Nov. 4 election.
District Attorney Mike Harson is showing his desperation by falsely attributing quotes to his opponent and blocking journalists from his social media.
The governor is traveling the country laying the groundwork for a possible 2016 presidential campaign, but his approval ratings at home hover well below 50 percent.

Lawmakers have sidestepped a decision on whether they accept claims from Gov. Bobby Jindal's administration that the state closed last year's books with a nearly $179 million surplus.
OCT 22 This entertaining short (15 minutes) film on Munchies is all about Boudin. Thank goodness it's just a documentary-style piece filled with the voices and faces of south Louisiana, as opposed to outsiders waxing poetic about our regional specialties. But be warned, there is some pretty graphic pig butchery going on here, so if you're squeamish it may not be for you.
OCT 22 A state judge threw out the lawsuit of a former employee of the LSU Alumni Association, the Advocate reports here. The employee had claimed the former director of the group gave her a job so she'd have sex with him, and after she left agreed to continue to pay her -- so she'd have sex with him. Apparently you get no points for hutzpah.
OCT 22 Education blogger Mike Deshotels writes about the retraction of the Cowen report in this post. However you slice it, the Recovery School District is still failing, he says. (But Mike, doesn't that depend on what the intention was? If no one ever meant the RSD to fix public education, it's working perfectly, isn't it?)
OCT 22 A major Jindal donor was allowed to avoid the competitive bid process in the purchase of a state office building in Monroe, blogger Tom Aswell reports in this post on Louisiana Voice. The circumstances he lays out here are pretty stinky.
OCT 22 While Govs. Bobby Jindal and Rick Perry attempt to fan the flames of Fox Newsian hysteria into viable presidential hopes with talk of building walls to keep out the Ebola, LA Times columnist Mike Hiltzik gives them some national press they probably don't want: if you want to save lives, he says, try accepting Medicaid expansion. Wups!
OCT 22 It's hard to pick out the most interesting part of this post on Mother Jones about Texas lieutenant governor candidate Dan Patrick (His claim that migrant workers will bring leprosy to Texas? That Connie Chung's show should be called "Slanted Eye to Eye"?) But of course we must go with the comments about our very own Duck people, and how they are the spokesmen for God.
OCT 22 Advocate owner (and rich guy) John Georges must be doing a little happy dance today. As his paper reports here, the Times Picayune is further reducing its footprint in NOLA, by laying off 100 people and moving their printing operations to Mobile. (Yes, Alabama.) Does this mean the Advocate won?
OCT 22 Baton Rouge's downtown is now starting to show significant growth, this post on DIG Baton Rouge reports. With new construction, new restaurants and new housing units popping up, the downtown area is finally starting to look like a capital city, the story says.
OCT 21 Two St. John Parish employees were indicted in connection with the amoeba found in the parish water supply, WVUE reports in this post. They are accused of lying about testing the water for proper chlorine levels, the story says, claims that were contradicted by their government vehicles' GPS records.
OCT 21 The McClatchy DC blog posts this fascinating view of Louisiana's political landscape. It's a little heavy on the cliches, and also a little heavy on the quaint Cajun/Creole shtick, but it's still good reading -- if only for the outside view of our insides.
OCT 21 Here's an interesting story from the National Journal about New Orleans almost 10 years post-Katrina. There are demographic information and charts, as well as some commentary about the corresponding changes in the way the city looks and works.

Just had a nice chat with Clippers backup post Spencer Hawes. I'll post my notebook leading with him later. Cool cat. #Clippers
Suns wanted an offensive interfereance on that play - not sure Hawes touched it - Suns down 106-103 with 7.8 left and ball - time out
Did Spencer Hawes get away with a "passing to yourself" travel? Suns thought so - I'd need to see replay
After Markieff's third foul, Len stays on Griffin and Tucker covers Hawes. Len's length has made a difference a couple times defensively.

Alex Len will play his first #Suns preseason game with a splint on his twice-fractured right pinkie. Good test against Jordan and/or Hawes.
Meanwhile, Clippers probable starters for Suns tonight (also b2b game) - Barnes, Hawes, DJ, Redick, Cunningham
Spencer Hawes may turn DeAndre Jordan into an assist man.
DeAndre Jordan with the entry pass to Spencer Hawes, who is fouled on the layup. Really like the look this duo presents for Clippers.
GSW vs. LAC starters: GSW -- Curry, Thompson, Barnes, Lee, Kuzmic; LAC -- Cunningham, Crawford, Barnes, Hawes, Jordan. Out: Bogut (ill).
Safe to say this Clippers starting lineup--Cunningham, Hawes, Crawford, Barnes and Jordan--is one they don't want to see in regular season.

Katie Castan, who was holding the now famous sign at the Wild Card Game last week — "IF WE WIN, HE' S BUYING ME A PUPPY!" — and boyfriend Joe Onofrio adopted a 4-year-old Pembroke Welsh Corgi last weekend to seal the deal.
The dog's name is Lucy, but her middle name is Rally, as the way the Royals rallied to win the game and sweep the American League Division Series.
After the game many people came forward to help them find a puppy, but then they heard from a "family of wonderful pet owners" who were trying to find new home for a Corgi, the breed pictured on the sign.
Watch for other signs during the post season like the one from Sunday night: "If We Win, My Fat Cat Brother Is Buying Everyone a Puppy!"

The tiny-dogs-in-designer-purses fad ran its course, leaving a lot of tiny dogs for someone else to take care of.
Now a company called Heart Pup (based in Los Angeles, of course) is marketing a deluxe dog carrier scarf. It is designed to hold small and extra-small dogs up to 26 pounds.
Dog not included.
As you may know I am a big fan of Shark Tank and of entrepreneurs who come up with innovative dog products. The investors on Shark Tank love dog products. The inventor of Scarf Sling got a deal recently, but not the one she wanted.
Right now she is making money. The Scarf Sling retails for $138 and her cost for material and labor is $16. Great margins. What I'm concerned with is whether this is another doggie fashion fad or is it a product bought only by loving, responsible dog owners.
The scarf is made of Italian cashmere in a variety of fashion colors. (you weren't expecting terry cloth, were you?) The seller promises it isn't just a gift for your dog, it's a gift for you too.
This isn't just a piece of cloth, she insists. Much thought has gone into the manufacturing, so don't even think about making your own. The Scarf Sling is engineered to be safe, secure and comfortable for both the wearer and rider.
It also includes a pocket that will hold your cell phone and keys so the scarf can double as a purse. You don't really need to bother putting a dog in it if you don't already have one.
Which sounds like the best idea.

The Rescue at Dead Dog Beach: One Man's Quest to Find a Home For the World's Forgotten Animals by Stephen McGarva
Stephen McGarva is an artist who is addicted to adventure and extreme sports. So when his wife got a chance to take a temporary job in Puerto Rico he asked only, "When do we leave?"
After taking her to work in her new job he was looking forward to wind surfing on a deserted beach. But then he spotted a dog, more dead than alive, lying on the ground.
His rib cage was visible through the spare tufts of dark fur; he was so sunburned on the areas where fur had fallen out that the skin was split and bloody. His ears and snout were knobby and covered in calluses...
[McGarva] looked around for something he could use as a shovel to bury him...
And then the dog raised his head and wagged his tail.
And McGarva's life forever changed.
He learns that Dead Dog Beach is a place where locals dump dogs they no longer want. Hundreds of dogs live on the beach and the nearby jungle. The dogs are hated by hotel owners and others who rely on the tourist trade. They are often tortured and killed for sport.
Soon the author finds himself visiting them regularly, spending thousands on food to feed what he calls "my dogs," and trying to protect them.
Although the dogs have given him a new purpose in life, it is at a cost of his relationship with other people, his health and even his sanity.
The Rescue at Dead Dog Beach takes place in Puerto Rico, but it might have taken place in many third world locations. These are cultures where dogs are too expensive to keep and stray dogs are considered annoyances.
Although the book is well written and engaging, there are many passages of dogs being tortured, brutalized and killed that may be too intense for some readers.

In what may be one of the World's Greatest Tweets or at least one of the best and most honest Explanations of Player Injury, the Detroit Lions tweeted that:
[tight end Joseph] Fauria was trying to stop Lil' Rufio from urinating in the house when he misstepped & sprained his ankle at home.
In a video posted to the Lions' website, Fauria smiled as he alluded to the fact that his 3-month-old Pomeranian/Husky mix "kind of did something bad" and then ran away from him.
Fauria said he moved a little faster than usual down the stairs, trying to catch up with Lil' Rufio, but missed the bottom two steps.
"My carpet goes to hardwood and I was wearing socks and just put all my weight in my left foot," Fauria said. "It was kind of an agonizing pain."
It wasn't immediately clear how long Fauria would be out of action.
The dog did it and the Lions are being open and honest about it. Transparency in the NFL. Some teams might not have admitted that a player injured himself stupidly at home.
It was all 'Lil Rufio's fault and he doesn't even look remorseful. Fauria asked for no death threats against the puppy from rabid fans, but no one can stay mad at a little guy who looks like this.
Pomeranian X Husky? How much cuteness can you get in one furry body?

Over a thousand police personnel and members of the public paid their last respects to Kye, a police dog stabbed to death in the line of duty.
The Lizard Brain award goes to the vacuous blonde celebrities who have posed with Chihuahuas through the years as if they were fashion accessories to carry in purses.
The Neanderthal award goes to their mindless followers who discarded the little throwaway dogs like last year's shoe fad for someone else to take care of.
The Pants on Fire award goes to KLM airlines for making us think that Sherlock the Beagle worked for their lost and found service.
Actually Sherlock was just used to make a video for marketing purposes. In order ''to illustrate that KLM goes above and beyond for their passengers, we decided to involve a search dog."
The idea was too cute and clever for us to get mad at them.

Help your dog release his inner Steven Spielberg or Francis Ford Coppola with GoPro's newest accessory designed specifically for dogs.
Fetch is a harness that works with all versions of GoPro's Hero cameras. The harness is easy to attach to your dog and has two built-in camera mounts, one on the back and one on the chest. The harness can adjust to fit dogs from 15 to 120 pounds.
Fetch comes with a $59.99 MSRP, but you can't really put a price on your dog's creativity. And imagine how proud you'll feel when your dog thanks the Academy...and you.

Man with machete, killed by deputies, didn't want to go back to jail
Friends and neighbors of a 19-year-old Ravensdale man who was killed by King County deputies on Saturday said he was worried about going back to jail.
Seattle Times staff reporter
Friends and neighbors of a 19-year-old Ravensdale man who was killed by King County deputies on Saturday when he threatened them with a machete said he was worried about going back to jail.
Eric G. Sampson, of Ravensdale, died when three sheriff's deputies shot him after he refused to lay down a machete he'd used to hit an officer's car, according to a Sheriff's Office spokesman.
Friends and neighbors confirmed Sampson's identity on Monday, although his name has not been released by the King County Medical Examiner's Office.
"This is a very good kid from a nice family," said neighbor Karen Kasper. "He had some traffic violations but hadn't been in any other trouble. Apparently, there was a bench warrant for him and he called his mother just before this happened and told her he wasn't going back to jail."
Sampson had a history of misdemeanor traffic citations and several related bench warrants, according to court documents.
He was also listed in a state computer database as being "potentially dangerous to officers," according to Sgt. John Urquhart, a spokesman for the Sheriff's Office,
But his friend, Kayla Cass, 18, of Buckley, said the label was unfair and stemmed from an offhand comment he'd once made to an officer.
"It was just this one time when he was pulled over for a ticket and he said, 'No wonder why people shoot cops,' but he didn't mean it," said Cass. "He seriously would never hurt anyone. He was actually a really good kid."
According to Cass, Sampson had been with her and another friend in Buckley on Saturday night.
She said that Sampson was typically a happy, helpful person who worked at Lake Retreat Bible Camp. He made extra money by fixing cars and reselling them, she said.
Cass said Sampson knew he had warrants out for his arrest because of his failure to appear in court and to pay fines for minor traffic violations. He was driving his brother's car despite having a suspended license.
Cass believes Sampson panicked when he was stopped by an officer with the Buckley Police Department around 11 p.m. Saturday.
Buckley Police Chief Jim Arsanto said the young man was fine when the officer first spoke with him to get license and registration information but then took off when the officer returned from his patrol vehicle.
Sampson was pursued by officers from Buckley, Enumclaw and the State Patrol before Sampson led them into the Cumberland area of unincorporated Southeast King County, where police called off the pursuit, according to Sgt. John Urquhart, a spokesman for the King County Sheriff's Office.
Deputies from the Sheriff's Office went to the address where the car was registered, Urquhart said, and found the unoccupied 1978 Ford Fiesta on a rural road in the 28500 block of Retreat-Kanaskat Road.
As several deputies checked out the car, another deputy drove past and saw Sampson on the road carrying a large machete, according to Urquhart.
He "walked up to the deputy's car and slashed down on the hood of the car with the weapon," Urquhart wrote in a news release.
The deputy called for assistance around 11:40 p.m. and was joined by additional officers, Urquhart said. Sampson refused to drop the machete. Two deputies then fired Tasers at Sampson, but they had no effect, according to Urquhart.
Three deputies opened fire at Sampson and he was struck multiple times, police said.
The names of the three officers who fired their weapons were not disclosed Monday, but Urquhart said they were a 51-year-old with 28 years of law-enforcement experience; a 37-year-old with 10 years of experience; and a 31-year-old with 5 1/2 years of experience.
They have been placed on routine paid administrative leave pending the results of an investigation into the shooting, he said.

Little more than a decade ago, the United States imported much of its natural gas. Today, the nation is tapping into its own natural gas reserves and producing enough to support most of its current needs for heating and power generation, and is beginning to export natural gas to other countries.
The trend is expected to continue, as new methods are developed to extract natural gas from vast unrecovered reserves embedded in shale. Natural gas can be used to generate electricity, and it burns cleaner than coal.
"With petroleum reserves in decline, natural gas production is destined to increase to help meet worldwide energy demands," said Matthew Neurock, a chemical engineering professor in the University of Virginia's School of Engineering and Applied Science. "But petroleum – in addition to being used to make fuels – is also used to make ethylene, propylene and other building blocks used in the production of a wide range of other chemicals. We need to develop innovative processes that can readily make these chemical intermediates from natural gas."
The problem is, there currently are no cost-effective ways to do this. Methane, the principal component of natural gas, is rather inert and requires high temperatures to activate its strong chemical bonds; therefore the practical and successful conversion of methane to useful chemical intermediates has thus far eluded chemists and engineers.
Neurock is working with colleagues at Northwestern University to invent novel ways and catalytic materials to activate methane to produce ethylene. This week the collaborators published a paper in the online edition of the journal Nature Chemistrydetailing the use of sulfur as a possible "soft" oxidant for catalytically converting methane into ethylene, a key "intermediate" for making chemicals, polymers, fuels and, ultimately, products such as films, surfactants, detergents, antifreeze, textiles and others.
"We show, through both theory – using quantum mechanical calculations – and laboratory experiments, that sulfur can be used together with novel sulfide catalysts to convert methane to ethylene, an important intermediate in the production of a wide range of materials," Neurock said.
Chemists and engineers have attempted to develop catalysts and catalytic processes that use oxygen to make ethylene, methanol and other intermediates, but have had little success as oxygen is too reactive and tends to over-oxidize methane to common carbon dioxide.
Neurock said that sulfur or other "softer" oxidants that have weaker affinities for hydrogen may be the answer, in that they can help to limit the over-reaction of methane to carbon disulfide. In the team's process, methane is reacted with sulfur over sulfide catalysts used in petroleum processes. Sulfur is used to remove hydrogen from the methane to form hydrocarbon fragments, which subsequently react together on the catalyst to form ethylene.
Theoretical and experimental results indicate that the conversion of methane and the selectivity to produce ethylene are controlled by how strong the sulfur bonds to the catalyst. Using these concepts, the team explored different metal sulfide catalysts to ultimately tune the metal-sulfur bond strength in order to control the conversion of methane to ethylene.
Chemical companies consider methane a particularly attractive raw material because of the large reserves of natural gas in the U.S. and other parts of the world.
In 2007, Dow issued a "Methane Challenge," seeking revolutionary chemical processes to facilitate the conversion of methane to ethylene and other useful chemicals.
The company received about 100 proposals from universities, institutes and companies around the world.
In 2008, the company awarded major research grants to Cardiff University and Northwestern University to advance the quest. Neurock is a member of the Northwestern University team. He is using theoretical methods and high-performance computing to understand the processes that control catalysis and to guide the experimental research at Northwestern.
"The abundance of natural gas, along with the development of new methods to extract it from hidden reserves, offers unique opportunities for the development of catalytic processes that can convert methane to chemicals," Neurock said. "Our finding – of using sulfur to catalyze the conversion of methane to ethylene – shows initial promise for the development of new catalytic processes that can potentially take full advantage of these reserves. The research, however, is really just in its infancy"

During a typical week, I work from home for twenty to thirty hours. Although this allows me greater opportunity to see my wife and two small children, it can also be a little tricky at times. I've developed the following rules and routines for making the best of the situation.
Help your child make a child readable sign for the office door so that he will know when it is and isn't acceptable to burst into the office.
I can't count the number of times my wife has apologized to me because the everyone was running around screaming, and I responded "Really? I hadn't noticed."
Something that really helps in our home is that I have set working hours during the day. At 4 PM, I emerge from my office like someone returning home from work, and I'll take the children to the park, help with chores around the house, or run errands with the family.
In our house, we have a game. When our eldest son hears my phone ring, he runs and asks his mother for a sticker for his "Daddy's Phone Log" on the refrigerator. It's made him become more aware of when I'm on the telephone and has the added benefit of sending him running away when the phone rings. Make sure, though, that you turn your ringer on. If you forget, and answer your phone after it vibrates, no one else will know that you're talking to someone else and will pester you with "Huh?" and "What?" when they think you're talking to them.
Enjoy the fact you're working from home and take a time out in the middle of the day to enjoy a long and leisurely lunch.
Nothing makes it more obvious that you're working from home more than having your spouse constantly talking to you. Ask her to email or instant message you so you can ignore them like you would your coworkers' messages if you were at the office.
What are your tips and tricks for working at home with the kids?
