UK: Allied front runner for Seagram's spirits
Allied Domecq is the front runner to buy Seagram's spirits business if it is sold after the Canadian company's merger with Vivendi, according to a report yesterday by analysts at Deutsche bank.Allied has been at the centre of consolidation rumours since the formation of Diageo two years ago. But despite being openly determined to be part of the second tier of consolidation has failed so far to find a willing partner.The potential sale of Seagram's drinks business however presents a perfect opportunity to make good on its merger intentions.In the report, Deutsche bank highlighted the lack of realistic alternatives to an Allied deal. It claimed that the current circumstances of Allied's rivals placed Allied in pole position.Bacardi, the most likely competitor, suffered the loss of Chip Reid and his management team after the family voted against Reid's proposed IPO, which also dented its potential buying power. And, Brown Forman does not have the size of financial war chest needed to secure such an acquisition.Meanwhile in Europe the list of buyers is Diageo and Pernod Ricard. Diageo would not get regulatory approval and Pernod with a market capitalisation of only£2bn was not in a position to takeover a business worth an estimated £6 billion, the report said.Pernod's prospects of a successful bid for Seagram's spirits took a further blow this week when it discovered it may have to enter a lengthy and expensive legal or bidding battle for the Polish vodkas Wyborowa and Zubrowka. The Polish government cancelled the international rights to the brand owned by Agros, the Pernod subsidiary, handing them instead to the individual distilleries who make the vodkas.Pernod now faces paying in excess of £500m each for brands it already believed it controlled internationally.All this leaves Allied in a healthy position. It has a new management team who are in favour with the City and the disposal of its retail business has left it with cash to spend.

We need to slash our meat consumption if we expect to feed a population of 9.3bn by 2050
We must dramatically reduce the amount of meat we eat to rebalance the global carbon cycle and lower the risks of catastrophic global warming, a new study says.
New research from the University of Exeter shows that if today's meat-eating habits continue, the predicted rise in the global population could spell ecological disaster.
But changes in our lifestyle and our farming could make space for growing crops for bioenergy and carbon storage.
Yummy! But a new study warns that we must dramatically cut the amount of meat that we eat if we are to avoid causing catastrophic global warming
Though less efficient as an energy source than fossil fuels, plants capture and store carbon that would otherwise stay in the atmosphere and contribute to global warming.
Burning our waste from organic materials, such as food and manure, and any bioenergy crops we can grow, while capturing the carbon contained within them, could be a powerful way to reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide.
Published today in the journal Energy and Environmental Science, the research suggests that in order to feed a population of 9.3billion by 2050 we need to dramatically increase the efficiency of our farming by eating less beef, recycling waste and wasting less food.
These changes could reduce the amount of land needed for farming, despite the increase in population, leaving sufficient land for some bio-energy.
To make a really significant difference, however, we will need to bring down the average global meat consumption from 16.6 per cent to 15 per cent of average daily calorie intake – about half that of the average western diet.
The researchers argue that if we change the way we use our land, recycle waste, and dedicate enough space to growing bioenergy crops we could bring down atmospheric carbon dioxide to safe levels.
Oink: Pigs are the most energy efficient form of meat to produce
Not doing this means we would lose our natural ecosystems and face increasingly dangerous levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide.
The research team generated four different future scenarios, based on dietary preferences and agricultural efficiency up to 2050: 'high-meat, low-efficiency', 'low-meat, low-efficiency', 'high-meat, high-efficiency' and 'low-meat, high-efficiency'.
The different agricultural options looked at the type of livestock being produced, with beef being the least energy-efficient and pork being the most.
They also looked at how intensively animals are farmed and examined options for reducing food waste and making better use of manure to make livestock farming more efficient.
They used established mathematical models to forecast the effects of each scenario on atmospheric carbon dioxide.
By 2050, a 'high-meat, low-efficiency' scenario would add 55 ppm of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, whereas a 'low-meat, high-efficiency' approach with carbon dioxide removal could remove 25 ppm.
A 25 ppm reduction could mean we avoid exceeding the two-degree rise in global temperatures that is now widely accepted as a safe threshold.
Lead researcher Tom Powell of the University of Exeter said: 'Our research clearly shows that recycling more and eating less meat could provide a key to rebalancing the global carbon cycle.
'Meat production involves significant energy losses: only around four per cent of crops grown for livestock turn into meat.
'By focusing on making agriculture more efficient and encouraging people to reduce the amount of meat they eat, we could keep global temperatures within the two degrees threshold.'
Co-author Professor Tim Lenton, also of the University of Exeter, said: 'Bioenergy with carbon storage could play a major role in helping us reduce future levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide.
'However, we only stand a chance of realising that potential, both for energy and carbon capture, if we increase the efficiency of agriculture.
'With livestock production accounting for 78 per cent of agricultural land use today, this is the area where change could have a significant impact.'

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic • Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural style...

Title: Control of grasshoppers from Goldthwaite TX
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:How long do grasshoppers live. They are eating our flowers, plants and trees.
Since we are gardeners and not entomologists, we went to the Internet to try to find an answer to your question. This article from Colorado State University Extension on Grasshopper Control in Gardens and Small Acreage contains this paragraph:
"Adult grasshoppers may live for months, interspersing feeding with mating and egg laying. Species that winter in the egg stage die out in late summer and early fall. A few species, perhaps most conspicuously the speckledwinged grasshopper, spend winter as a nymph, remain active during warm periods, and may develop to the adult form by late winter."
So, the answer to how long they live is long enough to reproduce a lot more grasshoppers. We suggest you get in touch with the Texas Agrilife Extension Service for Mills County. They will know more about the situation in your area, and have access to people who know much more about this than we do. The contact information for that office is at the bottom of the Home Page.

Grand Canyon completes sea trials
Vessel & ROV News - October 22, 2012
Grand Canyon recently completed sea trials (photo: Helix ESG).
Helix Energy Solutions Group's newbuild charter ROV support vessel, Grand Canyon, recently completed sea trials and is ready to begin operations in the North Sea. During the sea trials the vessel's propulsion system, dynamic positioning system and all her cranes were tested.
The vessel recently completed its outfitting in Norway after the initial hull construction was completed in Turkey. Grand Canyon is capable of launching five ROVs at once and will be operated by Helix ESG's robotics subsidiary, Canyon Offshore.
The vessel will be the new home for another recently completed asset, the T1200 trenching unit. Used primarily to bury large diameter power cables leading from offshore windfarms, the T1200 is also capable of working on oil and gas projects to bury production pipelines.
Grand Canyon was designed to provide a high capacity, stable working platform for lay, burial and general offshore construction work while still retaining a shallow draft, which is crucial when operating close to the coastline, and common in the renewable energy sector. Grand Canyon's DP3 capability allows her to operate in any sector, providing offshore support in a wide variety of roles.
The vessel's deck structure is specifically designed to accept trenching and flexible pipe or cable lay systems for safe and efficient mobilizations. A key focus throughout the design and build of Grand Canyon was to optimize the vessel and equipment design to facilitate efficient mobilizations.
The vessel was designed by Skipsteknisk in Norway, is owned by Volstad Maritime in Norway and was built at Bergen Group's Fosen shipyard.

FDA raises concern over drug production process at Cadila
MUMBAI (Reuters) - Cadila Healthcare Ltd (CADI.NS) is responding to certain observations the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) made after conducting a "product specific" inspection of its Moraiya manufacturing plant, a company spokeswoman said on Thursday.
Sources with direct knowledge told Reuters earlier that the FDA expressed concerns over the manufacturing process of at least one product at Cadila's Moraiya facility in the western Indian state of Gujarat.
"This was a product specific review and the inspection was limited to the review of documents for filed ANDA before its approval and the observations are being responded to," the Cadila spokeswoman said in a statement.
ANDA is an application drugmakers file with the FDA seeking approval to launch a new generic drug.
There is no business impact from the FDA action and Cadila has not received any observations on the standard manufacturing practices at the Moraiya plant, the spokeswoman said.
She did not immediately respond to a request seeking details on the inspection.
The FDA communicated its concern to Cadila in a Form 483, the company spokeswoman said. A Form 483 is a letter the agency issues after completing an inspection to outline conditions that the FDA believes violate standard regulations.
Once a Form 483 is issued by the FDA, the company has 15 days to respond before the FDA takes further action.
Cadila, among India's top 10 drugmakers, has one of the largest pipelines of 158 generic drugs awaiting approval from the FDA, according to company filings.
Cadila's shares dropped as much as 10.5 percent on Thursday. The stock ended down 4.5 percent at 1,116.15 rupees, while the Nifty fell 0.9 percent.
Separately, Citigroup on Thursday downgraded Cadila's stock to "sell" from "buy", saying the company's valuations have moved well ahead of its fundamentals. Indian brokerage IDBI Capital also cut its rating on Cadila stock to "accumulate" from "buy".

A film festival without a quirky indie comedy is like a day without sunshine. Helping to fulfill this inevitability for SXSW is Bag of Hammers, from feature debut director Brian Crano. Starring co-writer Jake Sandvig, Jason Ritter and the lovely Rebecca Hall, who's worked with Crano on two previous shorts, Rubberheart and Official Selection. As it stands, reviews seem a tad mixed; Jonathan Sullivan saw it and wasn't too keen on it, although Jack Giroux happened to enjoy the film.
The trailer has premiered on the official site, and the plot is as follows:
"A comedy about two misfit best friends incapable of growing up, whose direction is tested by an abandoned child, worn beyond his years; together they invent the family they've always needed."
It's not a bad trailer, either. While I can maybe see where some problems would come in (the production values look kind of low, some of the acting a little spotty), I'd say it kind of works. No release date has been set, but you can see the trailer below:

Clubhouse Confidential: Examining Stan Musial's Career

i know stosh will get beat up a little bit here, but brian kenny did a great segment there.2. bjhanke Posted: January 24, 2013 at 07:30 AM (#4353865)
First, fair warning. The link is to a video. I don't know what will happen to you, but this video, which only runs 4:31, took me OVER 20 MINUTES to listen to. Essentially it froze every 15 seconds, and took about a minute to start up again.3. Jolly Old St. Nick Is A Jolly Old St. Crip Posted: January 24, 2013 at 09:41 AM (#4353899)
That begin said, Musial shouldn't take any hits here, although the "analysis" presented is, well, insufficient. The talking head (is that Brian Kenney, phredbird?) compares Musial to Mays, Mantle and Aaron by raw OBP, SLG and Runs Created. By "raw", I mean that there is no awareness of the playing conditions. Mays, Mantle and Aaron all played substantial parts of their careers in poor hitters' parks. Stan played his career all in Sportsmans' Park, which was a hitters' park. Also, the other three are all about a decade later than Stan, which means that they played during the late 1960s, whereas Stan retired after 1963. Ted Williams, who WOULD be a good comp (hitters' park, almost the entire career overlapping) isn't on the list, probably because the big point of the list is to say that Stan's average Runs Created per year over his 12 best consecutive seasons was better than Willie's, Mickey's or Hank's, which is largely a playing condition issue, and which would not be true if you included Williams. The head also says that Musial was an on-base machine, finishing 1st or 2nd in the NL in that stat something like 12 years. Well, yeah, if you lead the league in batting average and take some walks, you'll do that, if a pitchers' park isn't depressing your numbers.
Then the head wants to gush over Stan's personality, saying that he'd rather have Musial for 20 years than Willie, Mickey or Hank. He seems completely unaware that he's not defending Stan, he's insulting the other three guys.
Look, I imagine that everyone here agrees that Stan was either the 2nd or 3rd best LF ever, pending comparison to Barry Bonds. If you take him as a RF, he's either 2nd or 3rd, depending on how you compare him to Hank Aaron. If you insist on 1B, you get to compare him to Jimmy Foxx. Someone who thinks any of those three things is not likely to be trashing Musial's reputation. But, I'm sorry, I don't think this was a great segment at all. It cherry-picked raw numbers of non-contemporaries, conveniently leaving out the best contemporary, possibly because that contemporary would win the categories posted. This doesn't do Stan Musial any good. He doesn't need it. He was an absolute inner circle Hall guy, and I imagine everyone here agrees with that, and pretty much everyone here could do a better job of demonstrating that than this video does. At least the head starts out by mentioning that Stan was very fast; that's the part of his ability that tends to get forgotten most often. But you can surely find a better testimonial somewhere else.
- Brock Hanke
The video ran without interruption on Chrome, which surprised me.
I didn't see Kenny "insulting" anyone at all. It's true that he didn't normalize Stan's statistics to reflect park and era, but at the end he acknowledged that there were greater hitters. And right at the start, he defined "greatest" as "the greatest sportsman that America has ever produced". He expressed a subjective opinion that taking all things into account, he'd rather have Musial on his team than any other player in history. By taking "all things into account", by definition that takes it out of the realm of the purely statistical, which means that to argue against his choice with a purely statistical case kind of misses his point.
Obviously there are those of us who'd rather have had Babe Ruth for all those years, or maybe any one of a half dozen or dozen other players, but to take the choice of Musial as an "insult" to anyone else, especially when he didn't say a word against any of the other players, is the kind of rhetoric that doesn't get us anywhere. This was a nice tribute to one of the all time greats both on the field and off, and while it wasn't exactly statistically rigorous, given the timing and the forum I can't see anything particularly objectionable about it.

The real consumer issue? Trust, not privacy.
Improved targeting is a key driver behind online advertising's recent growth, particularly growth in brand-driven advertising. Over the past three years, leading Web publishers such as Yahoo, Weather.com, USATODAY.com, and dozens of others have deployed sophisticated audience-targeting systems to optimize the inventory they sell to advertisers. Almost two-thirds of Online Publishers Association (OPA) members now offer behavioral and audience-centric targeting. These systems permit publishers to not only deliver more value to advertisers but also increase overall pricing as they make more efficient use of inventory.
Industry analysts, such as Gordon Hodge and Lloyd Walmsley of Thomas Weisel Partners and Youssef Squali of Jeffries, now predict Fortune 500 advertisers' demand for more sophisticated targeting will be a primary driver for increases in online media pricing and the shift of ad dollars from off- to online.
Nothing can slow this down, right? Or is this, as Yogi Berra once said, "dé;jà vu all over again?"
Earlier efforts in this sector were derailed by the elephant in the room: privacy.
Can privacy and targeting never coexist? Is it inevitable consumer privacy issues will derail publisher and advertiser efforts to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of online advertising through audience-centric targeting?
I think not. Here's why:
Privacy issues will be successfully addressed and eventually go away, but probably not before a few folks get burned for ignoring the issues listed above. I'm sure we'll see more tech-centric companies offer more tech-centric solutions to help consumers protect privacy. They'll either claim to be a trusted "Switzerland," as many others have, or deliver some new technological marvel to divine true consumer interest.
They'll capture our attention for a few moments, as their predecessors did, then vanish. It always works that way. The only answer is to use trust to win consumers' hearts, minds, and wallets. That will win the day.

Delta prepares for climate fight
HCM CITY (VNS)— Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung has approved a water conservation programme for the Cuu Long (Mekong) Delta from 2012 to 2020.

The programme is expected to benefit 32 million residents (estimated for 2050) in the delta, 12 million of them in coastal areas and the remaining 20 million people residing in flood-prone areas.
A total investment of VND171.7 trillion (over US$8.2 billion) is required to implement projects under the scheme.
This includes VND85.26 trillion ($4.1 billion) for irrigation works in the area between the Tien and Hau rivers; VND37.78 trillion ($1.8 billion) for the Ca Mau Peninsula; VND33.98 trillion ($1.6 billion) for the area to the left of the Tien River; VND13.44 trillion ($646 million) for the Long Xuyen Quadrilateral; and VND1.22 trillion ($58 million) for irrigation works on islands in the region.
The irrigation works will include sea and river embankments, canals, reservoirs, flood-control facilities, spillways and flood-control dams. — VNS

In the first of the three stories in "Cat's Eye," James Woods wants to stop smoking. So he goes to a Smokequitters clinic run by Alan King, who locks the door behind him and demonstrates a sadistic torture chamber: A cat is placed on a steel mesh floor, and electric shocks make it leap crazily around the room.
"I don't think I understand," Woods says. "If I don't stop smoking, you'll shock a cat?"
Not a cat," says King. "Your wife. If you have a second slip, we put your daughter in there. The third time ... well, only about 5 percent of our clients ever have a third slip."
The crazy unreality of the situation has a "Twilight Zone" sort of appeal, and indeed "Cat's Eye" is a superior Twilight-style anthology of three stories that are held together by the adventures of the cat. It's a small, scrappy tabby that survives not only electric shock (actually only special effects, so don't call the ASPCA), but also city traffic, falls from high buildings, one-way tickets to the pound, and a duel to the death with a gremlin who lives behind a little girl's bedroom wall.
The first story is about the smoker, who doesn't really believe that Alan King's spies are everywhere, until he finds a man in his downstairs closet. The second story, starring Robert Hayes and Kenneth McMillan, keys off of our fear of heights, as McMillan forces Hayes to walk along a narrow ledge all the way around a skyscraper. In one hair-raising moment borrowed from Harold Lloyd, Hayes grabs an electric sign that rips loose from the building and dangles him above the street far below. The special effects in this scene are effective, too; it really does look as if Hayes is hanging above a sickening drop.
The third story is the best, however. It's told from the point of view of a little girl (Drew Barrymore) who just knows that there is a creature living behind her bedroom wall. Her parents think she's making it up. Meanwhile, the long-suffering tabby arrives at Barrymore's suburban home, and invites itself inside. The parents say she can't keep the cat; they feed her all those tall tales about how cats steal the breath of sleeping children. But in a thrilling climax, the cat battles the nasty little creature as the girl looks on.
All three of the stories in "Cat's Eye" depend on special effects: The electric room, the high-rise terror, the little gremlin (made by Carlo Rambaldi, who also constructed E.T. and King Kong). The special effects are effective and understated, allowing the foreground to be occupied by some of our basic human fears, of pain for loved ones, of falling from a great height, of suffocation. Stephen King seems to be working his way through the reference books of human phobias, and "Cat's Eye" is one of his most effective films.

Britney Goes Back To The '80s With Paula Abdul
For the relaunch of VEVO's video platform, Britney Spears weighed in with her "Back to the '80s" playlist. Spears' favorites start with Salt-N-Pepa's "Push It" and run the gamut from Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Want To Have Fun" to Dan Hartman's "I Can Dream About You." Spears includes classics like Duran Duran's "Hungry Like the Wolf" and Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean." Interestingly, the final video is Spears' playlist is Paula Abdul's "Straight Up." Abdul recently ended her tenure on The X Factor, a show that Rolling Stone reports Spears was offered $10 million to join as a judge — effectively taking Abdul's place.
While Spears might know exactly what she likes about the past, it seems her future is in the air. She won't be hosting The X Factor, unless the reality singing show doubles its offer to the pop star. TheWrap reports she is considering a lucrative offer to take residency in a Las Vegas hotel instead. Former host Abdul was only paid $2.5 million for her work in the show's first season.
Spears is no stranger to showing her fandom of '80s music. For the soundtrack to her movie Crossroads, Spears covered the '80s hit "I Love Rock 'N Roll" by Joan Jett. And she infamously paid tribute to Madonna on the 2003 Video Music Awards, performing a version of "Like A Virgin" that ended in a very famous girl-on-girl kiss. Tellingly, Madonna is absent from Spears' VEVO playlist.
