Bone Black: Memories of Girlhoodby bell hooks
Stitching together girlhood memories with the finest threads of innocence, feminist intellectual bell hooks presents a powerfully intimate account of growing up in the South. A memoir of ideas and perceptions, Bone Black shows the unfolding of female creativity and one strong-spirited child's journey toward becoming a writer. She learns early on the roles women and men play in society, as well as the emotional vulnerability of children. She sheds new light on a society that beholds the joys of marriage for men and condemns anything more than silence for women. In this world, too, black is a woman's color—worn when earned—daughters and daddies are strangers under the same roof, and crying children are often given something to cry about. hooks finds good company in solitude, good company in books. She also discovers, in the motionless body of misunderstanding, that writing is her most vital breath.
Editorial Reviews
Although hooks has always drawn very effectively on her past in her trenchant social and political essays, this book is the first of her works to deal at length with what it was like growing up black in the South in the 1950s. It is also, she writes, about her struggle to create a self and an "identity distinct from and yet inclusive of the world around me . . . a rich magical world of southern black culture that was sometimes paradisiacal and at other times terrifying." Telling her story in brief vignettes, hooks illuminates each of the elements that composed that world, describing her parents, torn, sometimes to the point of violence, by the pressures that married life brings; an extended family that provided her with room to dream at the same time that it fed her a range of conflicting cues about how to live; a black subculture that instilled a series of painful lessons in color-driven self-evaluation; and finally, a white majority culture that could offer both the benefits of literature and the punishments of racial discrimination. As a child hooks was a loner, a little girl who loved books but who possessed "too much spirit" to suit her father. Fortunately, her extended family offered her many female role models: Grandmothers, aunts, and others helped prepare her for life in a harsh world. Alternating between first- and third-person narratives, Bone Black is as much about deciphering the secret languages and sign systems of adulthood, about learning how the larger world works, as it is about creating one's identity.
The narrative voice is oddly disembodied, somehow disturbingly disengaged; there are moments of real force and pain here, but they are not sustained. A book of great intelligence, Bone Black's power is somewhat diffused by this reticence of tone.

The first feature by Bill Brookfield, Milk is an offbeat British comedy about a family in mourning. The death of an 81-year-old woman sets the scene for this tale about family funerals and the difficulty of burying one's mother. Adrian is an unmarried, unworldly, and unstable dairy farmer dissatisfied with his life. He has had his share of youthful ambitions, but now all he is capable of doing is sloping after dairy cows. Between his filial duty to his bed-ridden cosmopolitan mother Lucy and his obligation to the dairy farm, he has never had a chance in life until his mother suddenly dies. Set in the Wiltshire countryside, the action begins when Adrian discovers her body and ends with its offbeat disposal 48 hours later. His first reaction is to execute his mother's pet parrot and confiscate her precious painting before his extended family swarms the dilapidated farmhouse to pillage her loot. They all want a piece of Lucy and they all have conflicting plans for the funeral. But Adrian intends to surprise them on both counts. The idea that a family member's death brings out the true nature of family dynamics is not a novelty in cinema, but Brookfield dabs the subject with local color, gently poking fun at the quarrels of people whose blood ties do not guarantee similarities of character. ~ Gönül Dönmez-Colin, Rovi

Arizona Cardinals
No surprise: Cardinals O-line ranked as NFL's worst
No one has to tell you the Arizona Cardinals' offensive line has struggled this season.
You have eyes, after all.
Still, to see it so officially, so statistically true is a bit disturbing, but that's exactly what ProFootballFocus.com has done.
The site produced its "Offensive Line Rankings: Week 10 Update" story, and it should come as no surprise that the Cardinals rank 32nd out of 32 teams.
According to their metrics, Arizona is league-worst in both run and pass blocking, and 21st in penalties.
Yep things haven't got much better for the Cardinals who by some distance still have the worst offensive line in the league. Nate Potter got some action and it's unlikely we've seen the last of him as D'Anthony Batiste is still our worst ranked tackle in the league by some distance. How this line remains such a mess is in excusable.
The Cardinals, who were off this week, may be making a change at left tackle by replacing Batiste with Potter. However, it remains to be seen if that will be enough to fix what has become arguably the least-effective unit in the entire NFL.

Just How A Lot More Organizations Along With Their Missions
Within this day and age, it may be tough in order to discover completely new abilities when you've got a full time job. A lot of laborers happen to be presently busy along with 7 and 9 hour work days, and a lot of staff members also have lifestyles beyond their jobs. With that said, precisely how may a person that has some type of full-time occupation better themselves? Right now, you can find fortunately more alternatives than ever before.
Quite a few staff tend to be turning to the Internet so as to greatly enhance their own professional abilities. As an illustration,
lean six sigma green belt training
is usually some type of system that is provided on the net to hundreds and hundreds of people. The entire aim of the training course is usually to educate participants tips on how to take full advantage of the actual products they offer within the shortest amount of time they are able to. The actual program accomplishes this simply by teaching individuals many different main procedures in which tend to be extremely efficient.
Having a lot of these programs presented on the web allows laborers to basically balance their particular job
in addition to their schooling. These kinds of online courses will supply participants with several hours of content. Just like any kind of informative training course, individuals shall be anticipated to participate in a number of quizzes and also a variety of practice tests. Upon successfully passing this course, participants are going to receive their particular lean six sigma black belt certifications.
Way more laborers should reap the benefits of the learning choices in which are generally obtainable currently. Once more, more advanced training programs are increasingly being presented on the web for a low cost. These kinds of training courses are very distinct and they are designed to appeal to those individuals who are presently in the workforce. Members will be most likely to very carefully assess the content accessible and productively complete the actual assessments that are delivered.

A comparative study on the clarification of anthocyanin-rich grape pomace extracts was carried out by tubular, hollow fibre and spiral wound industrial crossflow membrane units. Three polysulfone membranes were tested: a 500-kDa molecular mass cut-off (MMCO), and a 0.2- and 0.6-μm pore size cut-offs (PSCO). The 500- kDa MMCO and the 0.2-μm PSCO membranes produced particle-free extracts, while the 0.6-μm membrane showed deficient clarification. The 500-kDa MMCO membrane produced up to 3.7% loss of most of the individual anthocyanins, while the 0.6- and 0.2-μm PSCO membranes produced up to 2% only of some of the anthocyanins with higher molecular masses. Permeate steady fluxes of up to 53 L h−1 m−2 were obtained. Particles with sizes of 0.5–1.5 μm and the macromolecular anthocyanin–tannin complexes had a major impact on membrane performance. The obtained results are scalable to industrial installations.

Amazon.com Review
In this Amazon exclusive, we brought together authors Sebastian Junger and Evan Thomas and asked them to interview each other.
Evan Thomas is one of the most respected historians and journalists writing today. He is the author of The War Lovers. Sebastian Junger is an internationally acclaimed author and a contributing editor to Vanity Fair, and has been awarded a National Magazine Award and an SAIS Novartis Prize for journalism. He is the author of War. Read on to see Sebastian Junger and Evan Thomas talk about their books.
Evan Thomas: War really is hell in your book. And yet it seems to captivate some of the men who fight it. Why?
Sebastian Junger: War is hell, as the saying goes--but it isn't only that. It's a lot of other things, too--most of them delivered in forms that are way more pure and intense than what is available back home. The undeniable hellishness of war forces men to bond in ways that aren't necessary--or even possible-- in civilian society. The closest thing to it might be the parent-child bond, but that is not reciprocal. Children are generally not prepared to die for their parents, whereas the men in a platoon of combat infantry for the most part are prepared to do that for each other. For a lot of men, the security of being enclosed by a group like that apparently outweighs the terrors of being in combat. During World War II, wounded soldiers kept going AWOL from the rear-base hospitals in order to rejoin their units on the front line. Clearly, for those men, rejoining their comrades was more important than the risk of death.
I'm curious about the reactions of foot soldiers in previous wars--the Civil War, the Spanish-American War. Are there letters from soldiers describing their anguish at being separated from their comrades? Or is this a modern phenomenon?
Thomas: In the Spanish-American War, Teddy Roosevelt made a cult out of his band of brothers, the Rough Riders, with the twist that he was bringing together gentlemen and cowboys to be true Americans. It was a romantic ideal but largely realized in the short (several week) war they fought--two battles, about a 15 percent casualty rate. The anguish you speak of was felt by the Rough Riders who were left behind--there was no room on the transports for roughly a third of Roosevelt's troopers, and they had to stay behind in Florida. Roosevelt wrote of them weeping over being separated from their comrades and missing out on the fight.
Roosevelt's war lust was sated by the Spanish-American War--for a time. He was not a notably bellicose president ("Talk softly but carry a big stick"). But when World War I came, he was almost pathologically driven to get back into the fight. He badgered President Wilson to let him raise a division. (Wilson, not wanting to create a martyr, said no.) Do you think the brotherhood of combat is in some ways addictive? What is it like for the soldiers and marines coming home?
Junger: It's amazing to see these same themes played out war after war. Politicians seize war for themselves, in some ways, and the public certainly holds them accountable for it--but the men who actually do the fighting are extraordinarily conflicted about it all. Only one man in the platoon I was with chose to leave the army after the deployment--Brendan O'Byrne, a main character in my book and now someone I consider a good friend. A few weeks ago we were hanging out with a family I know, and the talk turned to how rough the fighting was in Afghanistan. The mother, a woman in her thirties, asked Brendan if there was anything he missed about the experience. Brendan looked at her and said, without any irony, "Yes, almost all of it." I think what Brendan meant was that he missed an existence where every detail mattered--whether you tied your shoelaces, whether you cleaned your rifle--and you never had to question the allegiance of your friends. As Brendan said at another point, "There are guys in the platoon who straight-up hate each other-- but they'd all die for each other." Once they've been exposed to that, it's very hard for these guys to go back to a seemingly meaningless and ill-defined civilian life.
What happened to the men after they returned from their adventures with Roosevelt? Where did their lives lead them?
Thomas: The Rough Riders seem to have had endless reunions--but nothing like the PTSD so widely reported today. But perhaps that was because they were only fighting for about a month--a "splendid little war," as diplomat John Hay called it, apparently without irony. In The War Lovers, I was looking at another kind of camaraderie--the bond of men who want to get the country into war, who think that war will somehow restore the nation to spiritual greatness. Roosevelt and his best friend, Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, believed that America at the end of the 19th century had become "overcivilized"--that young men were turning soft and needed to somehow stir "the wolf rising in the heart," as Roosevelt put it. "All the great races have been fighting races," he said. It is significant that Roosevelt and Lodge, who pushed America to go to war with Spain in 1898, had written about war a great deal but never seen it. President William McKinley resisted; he had, as he noted, seen "the dead piled up at Antietam" in the Civil War. But the hawks in America were able to roll the doves, not for the last time.
Before The War Lovers I wrote Sea of Thunder, a book about the last naval battle of World War II, Leyte Gulf. I interviewed a number of survivors from the USS Johnston, a destroyer sunk in the battle after an unbelievably brave fight against superior forces. About 220 men went in the water but only about half of them were rescued. Because of a series of mistakes by the navy, they were left in the water for two and half days. The sharks came on the first night. For a long time, the survivors did not talk much about it. But then, after Tom Brokaw wrote The Greatest Generation, they began having reunions and speaking--almost compulsively--bout their experiences. The recollections are often harrowing. Yet even years later, when the veterans compiled their recollections in a book of about eighty oral histories, the veterans did not speak of their own fear, with only one exception, as I recall. Somehow acknowledging fear remained a taboo.
In War you write about fear in clinical and fascinating ways. Did you have a hard time getting men to talk about fear?
Junger: Getting the men to talk about fear was very hard because, well, I think they were afraid of it. Their biggest worry seemed to be failing the other men of the platoon in some way, and whenever someone got killed, a common reaction was to search their own actions for blame. They didn't want to believe that a good man could get killed for no reason; someone had to be at fault. During combat, their personal fear effectively got subsumed by the greater anxiety that they would fail to do their job and someone else would get killed. The shame of that would last a lifetime, and they would literally do suicidal things to help platoon mates who were in danger. The classic story of a man throwing himself on a hand grenade--certain death, but an action that will almost certainly save everyone else--is neither a Hollywood cliché nor something that only happened in wars gone by. It is something that happens with regularity, and I don't think it can be explained by "army training" or any kind of suicidal impulse. I think that kind of courage goes to the heart of what it means to be human and to affiliate with others in a kind of transcendent way. Of course, once you have experienced a bond like that, everything else looks pathetic and uninteresting. That may be one reason combat vets have such a hard time returning to society..
My guess is that the survivors of the USS Johnston were more traumatized by the deaths of their comrades than the prospect of their own death. Did any of them speak to that? What were their nightmares about? Has anyone studied the effect of that trauma on their lives--divorce rate, suicide rate, that kind of thing?
Thomas: They certainly described the deaths of their colleagues--who went mad from drinking seawater, or were killed by sharks, or died from untreated wounds or exposure (the seawater was about 86 degrees at night, cold if you spent all night immersed in it). Some just swam away and drowned. In one or two cases, men begged to be put out of their misery and were. There were complicated emotions over the deaths. There wasn't enough room on the rafts for all the men, so when one died, it made room for another. I am sure there was terrible guilt, but I didn't get into it with the survivors I interviewed. I don't think they were studied as a cohort. I think they were expected to go on with their lives, and I think by and large they did.
Nations are changed by war--but somehow, only for a time. We have a way of forgetting the horrors of war, in the need young men (and old men who missed war) have to some experience the greatest challenge to their manhood. This was true in the period I wrote about in The War Lovers, more than three decades after the Civil War: men like Roosevelt and Lodge wanted to somehow experience the glories of war, and not think too hard about the way wars often turn out in unexpected ways. I know in Cuba, where I visited to research The War Lovers, the Cubans don't think of the Americans as their liberators from Spanish rule, but rather as foreign invaders. That's unfair, and in many ways just plain wrong, but not so hard to understand if you put yourself in the shoes of a country occupied by a foreign army. Some things never change.

On the other hand, I almost put the book down before ever starting the first page. When I first opened the cover I was treated to a forward by the publisher making points on the book being about how great men will falsify truth in order to go to war, and how in this war American soldiers would engage in savage brutalities. True statements, by the way. He then follows these statements up by saying, No, this is not Dick Cheney's memoir. A rather idiotic comment if I ever read one. Whether you think Cheney is a great American fighting terrorism or the Antichrist whose sole purpose was to lead America into war for oil and profit, the Iraq war has absolutely no resemblance or comparison to the Spanish-American War.Read more ›
Evan Thomas' new book "The War Lovers" is an interesting and provocative read about the events leading up to the Spanish-American war. This is a part of American history that is little-known to most Americans and understudied. The events leading up to the war propelled Theodore Roosevelt to the forefront of national politics -- and eventually to the Presidency. The portrayal of Roosevelt prior to his presidential years paints a very different picture than the more cautious, less blustering gradual Progressive of his presidency.
Thomas fails, though, in a couple of points. 1) Much of the book seems to be as much amateur psychological analysis as history, and unless Thomas actually does have a background in psychology, his attempts at analysis fall into the realm of speculation. 2) Both the blurb on the back of the book, and the blurb on the inside cover seem bent on forcing a comparison between American policies of the late 1890's and American policies during the Bush administration, even to the point of ending with a portrait of Roosevelt peering down at Scooter Libby. Now I'm a political independent and am not going to use this review to argue for or against the merits of either the Spanish-American war or the Gulf war. But as an historian, the attempt at somehow linking to two foreign policies is extremely tenuous at best. Indeed, when discussing this book with a friend of mine -- also a political independent (but from a very different perspective from my own) also felt that the connection was forced.
To me, the book would have been far better if the author had merely told the story of the events leading up to the war and its aftermath, than trying to moralize. As it is, the premise is unproved.
Three stars.
THE WAR LOVERS is really a history told through limited biographies of some of the most powerful American Movers of the late 19th century. Theodore Roosevelt, Henry Cabot Lodge, William Randolph Hearst, William James, and Thomas Reed provide a broad spectrum upper-crust America's thoughts and attitudes during this time. Evan Thomas presents Teddy Roosevelt (the real star of the book) in a strikingly negative light, casting him as arrogant, bullying, not-always-truthful, and sometimes downright crazy. The other characters are given a more kind treatment here, but nothing is sugar-coated. As these powerful figures debate the future of America and its role in the world, the reader gets interesting insights into politics, human nature, the rich and powerful, and America of ~1900.Read more ›

Angela was great, thank you!!!
Great job!!!! Highly recommend !!
Glad they were able to give me a 15' truck for the same price as the 10' truck . Along with not having to pay more then I usually do at other locations when I return the vehicle .
Cash options on cargo van. Suggestive up sell like movers.
Continue to give excellent service. I had a very pleasant experience, I will recommend this location to friends and family.
The employees that helped me were Great!!!!
This was my first time arranging a move of this sort, and between the ease-of-use of the website and the helpfulness of the in-store staff, things went extremely well. Thank you!
great people will rent from again
Even being busy staff greeted everyone right when they came through the door. Once I got to the counter, I did not feel rushed or like I was being pushed out just to get to the next person.
Great job
Location was convenient, but the parking is minimal. With a truck and transport trailer, I barely had enough room to pull into the lot. There really isn't any solution for the location, but it was difficult.
I would suggest you tell customers not to leave trailer hazards on with tow vehicle as it kills battery!
I want to compliment your location on your employee and great asset Angela Huston she exemplifies what superior customer service skills are in addition to being knowledgeable and friendly. She not only was pleasant for me to deal with I also was able to watch her with other customers and she handles herself very well with customers of all backgrounds and issues from mobility to payment processing and selling additional supplies and answering a million questions etc
She knows and does her job well and takes pride in her work and it shows! If you have any honors or wards to give I would suggest her for employee of the month or an additional bump up in pay! She truly is an asset to your company and I will use your location again and refer to others happily knowing that Angela works there and they will get the proper care and attention and answers during their move for rentals and storage.
Please provide a copy of this email and enclose it in her personnel file.
Shannon Moseley was the DRIVER. I (Chris Moran) ordered and paid for the account. You even sent THIS email to email@example.com. So why is it addressed to Shannon? Oh yeah, because this is an idiotic robot database email NEVER even touched by humans.
Was very pleasant and answered all my questions.
Only concern is parking lot too small
Make sure your delivery location also has a storage facility to unload van into. My unload was 80 miles away which caused me to pay for additional use of the van. Should have been addressed when I first made the reservation so there wouldn't be any surprise additional cost. Other than that it was a very good experience. Thankyou
Customer service was great. The manager Angela was very nice. Candace was amazing and made a hard personal situation extremely easy. Thank you so much for everything
Love the friendly staff they was very helpful in all areas plus location is quick to respond to help customers . Location on Las Vegas Blvd and eastern is one location I will never return to again. Very disappointed on the wait times but the worker was very helpful and doing his best to help multiple customers with a great attitude .
met my needs very well.....
I think the service was great. When I returned the truck the check in attendant Jacob was really nice and humorous. Really nice guy. Good store to rent from good team..
I work in a customer based environment into am a manager in my field if employment . And the manner in which I was treated by Candyss Marlow was very condescending and rude especially by one who claimed to be a manager. She even over over charged me for the milage and gas. She was so focused on trying figure out why I was being charged 19.95 for a 15th truck and as I was explaining to her she over spoke me and said it didn't make sense and when I requested a printed receipt she breathed or sighed hard and rolled her eyes. And gave me a equipment contract. I wish just could show you a picture it was even cutting off I have frequented thus location many times and I will not be returning as long as Candyss Marlow is there, I will not do anymore referrals either Candyss Marlow in my own done opinion should be the one cleaning out the trucks and sweeping storage rooms NOT dealing with honest paying customer's . . Unhappy and Unsatisfied
dye to employees way off treatment Candyss Marlow the
The workers there were very nice and easy to work with! This is the only location I have used in the past 5 years.

Using Manure in the Home Garden
- E coli, a health issue
- Nitrogen release rate is slow!
- Salts
- Other disadvantages of farm manure
- Composted manure
For some gardeners in Colorado, manure is readily available as a source of organic matter to build soils and add small amounts of nutrients. However, follow precautions with manure applications or they could become more detrimental than beneficial.
E. coli, a Health Issue
Due to the potential of transmitting human pathogens, such as E. coli, fresh manure should only be used on fruits and vegetables when specific precautions are taken. Apply non composted (fresh) manures in the fall and mix it into the soil. Do not leave it on the soil surface. Wait 120 days from manure application to harvest. Never apply it to growing good crops.
For additional details, refer to the Colorado State University Extension fact sheet #9.369, Preventing E. coli From Garden to Plate.
Nitrogen Release Rate is Slow!
Manure contains small amounts of plant nutrients and micronutrients. The nutrient composition of farm manure varies widely depending on bedding material, moisture content, exposure, and aging, even for the same species of animal. Where manure is routinely added, garden soils will likely have adequate phosphorus and potassium. Manure is a great source of micronutrients like zinc. Table 1 gives approximate amounts of nitrogen, phosphate, and potash. [Table 1]
Table 1. Approximate Nutrient Content of Manure* Type N P2O5 K2O Beef with bedding 1.1% 0.9% 1.3% without bedding 1.1% 0.7% 1.2% Dairy cattle with bedding 0.5% 0.2% 0.5% without bedding 0.5% 0.2% 0.5% Horse with bedding 0.7% 0.2% 0.7% Poultry with litter 2.8% 2.3% 1.7% without litter 1.7% 2.4% 1.7% Rabbit 2.0% 1.3% 1.2% Sheep with bedding 0.7% 0.5% 1.3% without bedding 0.9% 0.6% 1.3% Swine with bedding 0.4% 0.4% 0.4% without bedding 0.5% 0.5% 0.4% Turkey with litter 1.0% 0.8% 0.7% without litter 1.4% 1.0% 0.9%
The nitrogen in manure is not all available to growing plants the first year as much of it may be tied up in organic forms. Organic nitrogen becomes available to plants when soil microorganisms decompose organic compounds, such as proteins, and then convert the released N to NH4. This process, known as mineralization, begins almost immediately, but fully occurs over a period of years. [Table 2]
Table 2. Approximate Percentage of Organic Nitrogen Mineralized in the First Year after Application Manure Source Percent of Organic Nitrogen Mineralized Beef 35% Dairy 35% Horse 20% Poultry
Sheep 25% Swine 50%
The amount mineralized in the first year depends upon the manure source, soil temperature, moisture, and handling. In general, about 30% to 50% of the organic nitrogen becomes available the first year. Thereafter, the amount gradually decreases. A general estimate is 50% the first year, 25% the second year, 12.5% the third year, and so forth.
In gardens low in organic matter, it is common to find nitrogen deficiencies when the gardener relies solely on manure and/or compost due to the slow release rates. The gardener may need to supplement with a high nitrogen organic or manufactured fertilizer. As the soil builds in organic matter over the years, the problems with low nitrogen levels will improve.
Salt content may be high in fresh manure and decreases with exposure to rains and irrigation as salts are leached out. Continual and/or heavy applications of manure can lead to a salt build-up.
To avoid salt problems associated with the use of manure or compost made with manure, limit applications to one inch per year (when cultivated six to eight inches deep) and thoroughly cultivate the manure or compost into the soil. When cultivation is less than six to eight inches deep, adjust the application rate accordingly. Have a soil test for salt content before adding large amounts.
Manure or compost made with manure containing up to 10 dS/m (10 mmhos/cm) total salt is acceptable if cultivated six to eight inches deep into a low-salt garden soil (less than 1 dS/m or 1 mmhos/cm). Manure with a salt content greater than 10 dS/m (10 mmhos/cm) is questionable. Avoid use of manure on soils that are already high in salts (above 3 dS/m (3 mmhos/cm). For additional details on saline soils, refer to the CMG GardenNotes #224, Saline Soils.
Note: dS/m or mmhos/cm are the units used to measure salt content. It measures the electrical conductivity of the soil.
Other Disadvantages of Farm Manure
Other disadvantages of farm manure include the following:
- Potential burning of roots and foliage from high ammonia.
- High potential for weed seeds.
- Labor and transportation necessary to apply the manure to the garden.
Horse manure is legendary in its potential to introduce a major weed seed problem into a garden. Composting the manure before application may kill the weed seeds if the pile heats to above 145ºF and the pile is turned to heat process the entire product.
Feedlot manure is often high in salts if a salt additive is used in the livestock diet.
Poultry manure is particularly high in ammonia and readily burns if over-applied. The ammonia content will be higher in fresh manure compared to aged manure. Laying hen manure can raise soil pH due to the calcium supplements in their diet. Occasionally, gardeners may want to "fix" their soil by adding large quantities of organic matter at one time. Excessive applications of manure can lead to a reduction of plant growth due to excessive levels of nitrogen, ammonia burn, and salt damage to the roots.
Composted Manure
A growing trend in the use of manure is to compost it before application. Bagged composted manure is readily available in garden stores and nurseries. Composted manure has fewer odors. It is easier to haul and store than fresh manure because of the reduction in the weight of water and a decrease in overall volume by four to six fold. The composting process may kill weed seeds and pathogens if the pile heats above 145ºF and the pile was turned to heat-process the entire product. Salts can be concentrated during composting as moisture is lost and volume is reduced. Many bagged manure products sold in Colorado are high in salts.
In composted dairy manure, only 5-20% of the nitrogen will be available the first year. In soils low in organic content, this can lead to a nitrogen deficiency unless an additional quick release nitrogen source is supplemented. This could be supplied with blood meal (approximately 1 to 2 pounds per 100 square feet) or with a manufactured fertilizer like ammonium nitrate (2/3 cup per 100 sq. ft) or ammonium sulfate (1 cup per 100 sq. ft.). The ammonia content drops due to volatilization during composting, thereby reducing the burn potential.
Fresh manure without bedding materials is somewhat difficult to compost, because of the high ammonia and moisture content. To speed decomposition and minimize foul odors from anaerobic decay, add some high carbon material, such as sawdust, straw, dried leaves or wood chips. Depending on climatic conditions, on-farm manure composting takes six to ten or more weeks if turned weekly.

Wanna be lean? Just eliminate waste
Written by John English Monday, 17 November 2014 00:00
Waste has two meanings for a woodshop. It's the accumulated debris created by the manufacturing process (that is, the garbage), which includes sawdust, chips and cutoffs. But it's also a term used to describe the percentage of raw materials that don't get used in production — that is, the amount of money being spent on hardwoods, sheet stock, finishes and hardware that don't get used right away and sometimes even becomes the first kind of waste. For example, finishes with a shelf life often end up being discarded, as does dated hardware.

Richard Bourke On Irish History
Discussion of books by James Joyce, Conor Cruise O'Brien and others. "Irish intellectual life is deeply indebted to its literary culture. There's been a relative dearth of what you might call dedicated intellectuals, and, by comparison, a dominant role played by the image of the writer. This undoubtedly has something to do with the subtle hegemony exercised by priestcraft in Ireland, coupled, over the longer term, with the declining fortunes of philosophical ingenuity within Catholic thinking" (6,100 words)

We had never tried a Comfort Suites before so on a recent trip to Tyler, Tx. we decided to try it out. We had read good reviews of this hotel and we were not disappointed. Our room was very clean and large. We stayed on the third floor which was much quieter and even though the hotel is close to busy Broadway St., we heard no traffic noise. The staff was kind and helpful and the morning free breakfast was great with a large variety of items to chose from. Parking lot was spacious and well lit at night. The bed was the most comfortable we had slept in at any hotel in years. There are many great restaurants nearby as well as the mall. We will definitely try Comfort Suites again.

These sounded really interesting. I've had this recipe printed out and ready to try for awhile so today when I made tapas I made these as well. I substituted all spice for the anise because my mom loathes anything with anise in it. She LOVED the grapes and so did everybody else. Thanks for such a cool & tasty recipe!!! Ciao, Bella P.S. I marinated the grapes for only 2 hours and they still turned out fine!
Very easy, and very delicious. My whole family loved it, as did my son's friends. We will definately make this again.
This was easy to prepare, and was lovely with a cheese plate. We enjoyed this recipe immensely, and plan to make it again.

MALDEN, Mass. —The impressive season long unbeaten streak is over for the BC High Eagles and Malden Catholic's Ara Nazarian had a lot do with it.
Nazarian scored the go ahead goal in the second period and the insurance goal in the third period as the No. 3 Lancers put an end to the No. 1 Eagles' 14-game unbeaten streak by a score of 3-1 at the Valley Forum.
The UNH commit finished off a sweet move to his forehand early in the second period to give the Lancers a lead they would not relinquish.
"He is a high end talent kid and you expect that," said Malden Catholic coach John McLean. "I thought he worked really hard tonight and he was focused. We gear up for these guys so we look forward to playing them. I wish we could play them more during the year."
The Lancers opened the scoring in the first period when senior Patrick Wrenn finished off a nice cross-ice pass from Nick Botticelli for a 1-0 lead.
Momentum shifted as the Eagles came out flying in the second period and tied the game when Tim Larocque tipped home a point shot from Ryan Shea to tie the game.
Despite the go-ahead goal by Nazarian just under a minute later, the Eagles kept the pressure on, aided by three power play chances including an abbreviated two man advantage but they could not solve junior goalie Alex Reissis (26 saves).
Nazarian put the finishing touches on the win with just under three minutes left.
Jake Witkowski had the initial bid that Eagles goalie Brandon Payzant turned aside but the rebound fell to the stick of Nazarian, who had an easy finish into the open side that put the game away.
MC's win avenged the Lancers' 5-3 loss at UMass-Boston back on Jan. 7.
"We just needed to focus on the small plays at the blue lines," said Nazarian. "In the past games we haven't been putting in our effort at the blue lines and that is where we have been losing games. I don't think they have had a game where they have been down 1-0 in a while so getting that first goal was key."
Only small in stature: When MC goalie Alex Reissis emerged from the locker room, the team's fireman hat — given to the game's MVP — rested on his head.
Despite his small frame, Reissis played large for the Lancers, specifically during a 16-shot barrage from the surging Eagles in the second period.
"The defense played really well for me today and kept everything to the outside," said Reissis. "We took a lot of penalties but the penalty kill played well again."
There was no bigger save then with just over six minutes left in the game when a defensive turnover led to Eagles top scorer Steve DeForge bearing down on Reissis but the junior goalie calmly turned the bid aside.
"I think this is a big step for him in a real big game," added McLean. "That was huge for his confidence but he played huge tonight."

Allowing customers to customize colors and materials has become a popular and profitable option for many automakers in the last several years. Most offer customers the opportunity to pick up their new ride at the factory and even watch it being built. For the 2011 model year, Chevrolet is going one step further by giving buyers of the Z06 and ZR1 the option to build the powerplant for their new Corvette.

and Bao-Dur dies...

Ok look, in cut material that TSLRP is restoring Bao-Dur mentions returning to Malachor to activate the Generator again. Then after you deal with the Atris problem, Grenn notices Bao-dur is gone. And in another cut line, Bao-Dur asks the remote to "Make my Sacrifice matter".
And so based upon those three things* it is easy to assume he followed Kreia to Malachor while you were on Telos, tried to activate the generator, but was killed. And even if this isn't EXACTLY** what OE intended, every other party member has a end-game resolution; Mira, Hanharr, Atton, Brianna, Mical, HK-47, Remote, Go-To, Visas Marr, and Kreia. And like Bao-dur every ones ending was cut or trimmed down to a shell of what it could have been.
So don't come complaining that this is BS, it makes perfect sense if you look at Bao-dur's character. He thought he could keep Czerka from messing up Telos on his own, he thought he could stop the Republic's enemies with his OWN creations, AND he very much regrets having made the generator in the first place.
I'm sorry, buψ as the others said, without additional proof for it originally being exactly as you described, your hypothesis is speculation like everyone else's here.

Dumb Witness – Agatha Christie
Also published as Poirot Loses a Client and as Silent Witness,
Audio version performed by Hugh Fraser
4 stars
Poirot receives a letter from a distressed, elderly lady. She has reason to be afraid for her life. Unfortunately, she had forgotten to mail the letter. When Poirot seeks to investigate, he finds that the lady has been dead for some time. Although it appears to have been a natural death, Poirot is not convinced. Every member of the victim's family is a potential suspect.
I thought I had this one figured out. I was sure I knew the name of the murderer, but I must not have sufficient little gray cells. Agatha Christie stumped me again.
There were a great many unlikable, unpleasant characters in this book. I didn't find myself caring about any of them. The best part of the story was the dog, Bob. Bob has a major role and even some dialog as Christie wrote a verbal interpretation of his barks. Captain Hastings was able to be truly useful as a ball throwing playmate for the dog.
A fairly standard Poirot mystery, with the slight twist that he's investigating on behalf of someone who has already died. Pleasant light crime fiction.
Also known as "Poirot Loses a Client".
You know, I just realised that many of Christie's are remarkably the same from book to book, as are the settings & circumstances..... as well as her prejudices. This time it was Greeks, Turks, & Argentines, which was mentioned more than once.... So I knocked off a star.
Aside from my little rant, I enjoyed the story. Aunt Emily is in her 70's and is not so well of health but is still as sharp as a tack and nobody's fool. She is the survivor of 3 sisters and a brother, all who lived well under their means, as does Aunt Emily.
Aunt Emily's two nieces, their husband & fiancee, and nephew come to visit, all looking for a handout. Emily knowing that they should all still have money from their previous inheritance denies them all.
Aunt Emily's dog, Bob, is a very intelligent terrier and is very good at playing ball. He likes to take his ball to the top of the stairs and push it down to whomever is at the bottom... when they toss it back up to Bab, he catches it and tosses it back down.
One evening close to Easter, Bob leaves his ball at the top of the stairs and Aunt Emily takes a tumble head first..... It is at this point she changes her will and writes to M. Poirot intimating she is in danger and requests his help...... It is several months later after Aunt Emily's family has once again visited (asking for money) and she falls ill and dies that M. Poirot receives her letter.
Suspects include: Nephew Charles (a bounder & a cad), Niece Natalie (a fast & loose woman who loves the finer things in life), Niece Bella (a dull woman & good mother married to the "Greek"), the Greek (a doctor of a charming & jovial nature), and Minnie (the most current of a long line of "spinster" companions).
Captain Hastings is along to help M. Poirot, but honestly, he is a right old ass and as obtuse as ever.
I liked the story, I especially like Bob, and I "got" the clue as to who done it.
Husbeast and I listened to this audiobook on a long drive this past weekend. Was familiar with the story from the Suchet TV show (though that TV adaptation of this one did some very odd things to characterization and some smaller plot points), but hearing how Christie actually put the story together was entertaining anyway. There's some really funny social commentary (send-ups of various English village types, mostly) and the characterization of a dog who is important to the plot is a delight, perhaps mostly because of Hugh Fraser's reading--which was wonderful all around.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0425098540, Mass Market Paperback)Miss Emily was old, rich, and afraid--and now, she's dead. Her terrified plea to Hercule Poirot came a little too late. All that's left is a house full of greedy heirs, and a very strange letter that could solve the mystery--or add to it.
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:19:59 -0400)
As Hercule Poirot sifts through his post one particular morning, he alights upon a letter from an elderly and (as it transpires) exceedingly rich spinster--Miss Emily Arundell. She is clearly in great distress and seeking his help, but doesn't say why. Her only specific mention is "the incident of the dog's ball." However, what intrigues Poirot is the date of the communication--it was written two months ago. He persuades Captain Hastings that they must visit the lady with all haste. On arrival, they discover that she has died, apparently of natural causes. But Bob, Miss Arundell's devoted wire-haired terrier, knows better. And so, soon, does Poirot.… (more)

Mexico's Canadian Mennonites
In the 1920s, the Mexican government wanted to settle the barren northern areas of the country with industrious farmers.
At the invitation of the then-president, 20,000 Mennonites left Canada and settled in the state of Chihuahua.
They are still there, a flourishing community so well known that one of Mexico's signature cheeses is named for them: queso menonita.

Utah Jazz commit kids to fitness
Kristin Murphy, Deseret News
WEST VALLEY CITY — Diante Garrett always knew he'd play professional basketball.
Garrett joined his school's team as soon as he could — in the fourth grade.
But to see an athlete he was used to watching on television in person would've been "a spectacular thing," the Utah Jazz guard said Thursday.
"I never had that chance," he said.
Garrett changed the game for about 100 middle schoolers at West Lake Junior High on Thursday, teaching them how to dribble the basketball one-on-one.
"I like to see the smile on their faces," he said.
In addition to getting some court time with Garrett, students learned dance moves from Jazz dancers, fitness routines from the Jazz stunt team, and got tips from the team's basketball operations director, Richard Smith.
"You've got to pick something you like to do that involves physical activity and do it often," Utah Jazz broadcaster Steve Brown told the kids. "I guarantee it will help you enjoy life much better, and you'll be healthier."
Thursday was the fifth of 10 Jazz Fit clinics, an extension of NBA Fit, conducted by the Jazz organization at junior high schools within the Salt Lake City School District since January. Students are invited to participate at each of the schools based on their fitness levels or because they earned the opportunity, said West Lake physical education coach Shauna Morley, a self-proclaimed Jazz fan.
"Hopefully this will motivate them to be fit," Morley said. "We want to get them actively involved."
Eighth-grader Daisy Esquivel said it was fun meeting the Jazz dancers in person. She even follows the team's performance a little and often plays basketball with her friends.
"This was a cool thing to do today," she said.
Instilling strong fitness commitments, Morley said, is "extremely important at this age."
She said some are relatively sedentary because they go home to an empty house, but even more, she blames teenagers' penchant for fast food.
"The idea is to get kids interested in fitness, anything to get them going and out of the video game mentality and hopefully create a little bit of an enjoyment in doing something physical that they will carry through their life," Brown said. "Even if they wind up with a sedentary job, hopefully there's an interest created in doing something."
Being active, he said, "makes a difference."
And even seventh-grader Malachi Lolin, who classifies his own fitness level as "standard," said he could improve.
"I need to exercise every day," he said, adding that seeing Garrett on Thursday helped him commit to a healthier lifestyle.
