Congratulations, you've purchased one of the finest sleep systems available. Sealy guarantees the replacement or repair of your mattress or foundation ("box spring", "rigid foundation", or "bunkie board") if, in normal use, either piece fails to meet our high standards for quality and workmanship. Be aware that body indentations are a normal occurrence in new mattresses, and indicate the upholstery layers are conforming to your body's contours. Please read the Limited Warranty guidelines and limitations, and then register your sleep set online at www.sealy.com. You may access additional information on proper sleep set care through our website. NOTE: Law tag MUST be retained for warranty coverage. Please keep your sales receipt and Limited Warranty Certificate in a safe place.
Does This Sleep Set Meet Federal Fire Retardancy Standards?
This product does meet Federal Fire Retardancy Standards. However, the sleep set's flame resistance may be seriously impaired, if any of the following occurs: a non-matching mattress and foundation are used together (per law tag), the outer cover of the mattress or foundation is damaged, torn or punctured, mattress handles are torn from the side of the mattress from abuse, general misuse or abuse of the set, treatment with an unapproved stain repellent or similar post purchase application. Your sleep set is open-flame resistant, not fireproof, so it is important to keep open flames or any incendiary or high heat generating devices (such as halogen lamps, candles, space heaters, frayed electrical cords, etc.) away from your sleep set and out of the reach of children. DO NOT SMOKE IN BED. A mattress can ignite and/or burn if exposed to open flame or fire. When ignited, some bedding materials can burn rapidly and emit smoke and hazardous gases.
Exclusive Remedy/Other Limitations of Warranty
EVENT OF PRODUCT FAILURE DURING THE WARRANTY PERIOD. WE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF THIS PRODUCT OR THE INABILITY TO USE THIS PRODUCT, OR FOR THE BREACH OF THIS OR ANY OTHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY. This warranty is valid only in the 50 United States, Puerto Rico and Canada, and gives you specific legal rights that may differ or vary from state to state.
How Long Is The Limited Warranty?
Coverage begins on date of purchase and follows the "Warranty Schedule" found on this card. If Sealy repairs or replaces your sleep set, the Limited Warranty continues from the original date of purchase.
Taking Care of Your Sleep Set
• Carry your mattress flat on its side, this makes it easier to handle and prevents damage.
• Keep your mattress sanitary by using a mattress pad, especially if children use the bed.
• Things to Avoid: Do NOT bend, stand on, jump on, use dry cleaning chemicals on, or allow any liquids on your mattress. Avoid placing a board between your mattress and foundation. Do NOT destroy the law tag label as it MUST be retained for warranty coverage.
Warranty Schedule
To determine your warranty terms locate the mattress law tag and find the "Warranty" field shown on sample law tag below. Copy the Warranty Code and 12 digit Serial Number into the spaces provided below. The number left of the slash mark is the period for repair or replacement at no charge (except you are responsible for transportation and inspection costs), and the number right of the slash mark is the total warranty period. To calculate the fee for repair or replacement after the 'no charge' period use this simple formula: (Retail Price) X (Number of Years Owned) Divided by the number right of the slash mark. If the product purchased is discontinued, Sealy has sole discretion to determine the retail price of a comparable model that will be used to determine the charge for repair or replacement. Your purchase date is established from the date of your sales receipt.
What Is Covered By The Limited Warranty?
The Limited Warranty is only valid for the original purchaser of the mattress and foundation set, and only covers manufacturing defects in a mattress or foundation when the set is subject to proper handling and normal use in conjunction with a bed frame that provides Continuous Support. To provide Continuous Support, a Queen or King frame must have 1) a rigid bridge bar with a supporting leg and 2) at least 5 legs, or 5 equally spaced hardwood cross-slats (see examples below). Replacement of one piece in the set DOES NOT guarantee replacement of the other piece in the set. Zip-off mattress covers are warranted for the first 2 years from A) manufacturing defects and workmanship flaws of the zipper and seams B) tearing of fabric under normal use.
What Is NOT COVERED By The Limited Warranty?
The Limited Warranty EXCLUDES: claims made outside the 50 United States or Puerto Rico, mattress fabric, comfort preference, bed height, spills, burns, bent or broken border/grid wires, mattress or foundation damage due to abuse or abnormal use, damage due to use with inappropriate foundation, used bedding, bedding sold "As Is", floor models, damage due to bed frames that DO NOT provide Continuous Support, and cost associated with transportation, inspection or removal of products. Also, normal body indentations or sagging (not associated with sag in foundation) of less than 1½" for Latex or Innerspring mattresses, or less than 3/4" for Memory Foam mattresses, IS NOT COVERED. If it is determined that an indentation is caused by misuse, abuse or factors other than a product defect, this warranty will not cover that condition.
Any product found to be in an Unreasonably Unsanitary Condition, meaning the product is so pervasively soiled that 1) an inspector is unable to conduct an appropriate inspection of the condition of the product without being exposed to potentially dangerous bodily fluids, blood borne pathogens, or other substances that could cause significant injury or 2) otherwise suggest that the product has been subjected to misuse well beyond ordinary wear and tear, IS NOT COVERED under this warranty.
What Should I Do If A Problem Occurs?
First, contact the retail store where you purchased your sleep set. If you cannot reach this store, or if you have moved, write directly to the Consumer Services Department, One Office Parkway, Trinity, NC 27370 or contact our Consumer Service line at 800-697-3259.
For the Limited Warranty to be valid, you must: 1) Be the original consumer purchaser, and have purchased the sleep set from an authorized dealer in the 50 United States or Puerto Rico, 2) Provide a copy of the original store receipt, or other proof of date, retailer and purchase price, and, 3) Provide the law label from the defective product.
What Will Sealy Do If A Problem Occurs?
If you have a claim before the end of the Limited Warranty period due to a defect covered under this warranty, Sealy will repair or replace, at our sole discretion, the defective product in a reasonable period of time within the 50 United States or Puerto Rico with charges as shown on the Warranty Schedule and exclusive of transportation and inspection costs. Sealy reserves the right to replace the failed product with a product of equal or higher value, and does not guarantee an exact match to your current sleep set.

A Comparative Study of the Efficacy of Detach(R) Versus Zinc Oxide to Control Post-Weaning Diarrhoea in Piglets
Presents at Australasian Pig Science Association Conference
Anatara Lifesciences is currently applying for re-registration of Detach(R) as an alternative to antibiotics and Zinc Oxide (ZnO) to aid in the control of pre- and post-weaning diarrhoea in piglets. Bromelain, the active in Detach(R) reduces diarrhoea through its anti-attachment and anti-secretory effect (see Notes 1, 2 below) on the intestine, and is therefore unlikely to contribute to antimicrobial resistance. This study was designed to compare the efficacy of a single 4mL Detach(R) drench at weaning (18-28 days of age) to ZnO (2,500 ppm in feed) as an aid in the control of post-weaning diarrhoea in piglets.
A single dose of Detach(R) at weaning was as effective as in-feed ZnO in reducing diarrhoea and antibiotic treatments in piglets post-weaning compared to untreated piglets.

Plaque wording
I would like to see the acronym AO (American Optical) defined in the nomination and present on the plaque. I think the full name is more important than the physical address mentioned in the citation.
If we delete the "now" in the phrase "now routinely" that gives us another word so that we can spell out "American Optical" while remaining under the word limit. The present tense implies the "now," so that presumably could be deleted without changing the meaning.
This is a worthy nomination. It is also well documented. I tend to agree with the various editorial comments, and do not feel the need to repeat them. I will leave it up to the citation expert to fine tune the wording, but I tend to support the Milestone as meritorious.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of adjunctive ziprasidone in subjects with treatment-resistant major depressive disorder (DSM-IV criteria) without psychotic features.
Method: Subjects not responding to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) monotherapy during a 6-week open-label trial were randomly assigned to continue monotherapy or receive adjunctive ziprasidone for 8 weeks in 1 of 3 groups: sertraline 100 to 200 mg/day, sertraline 100 to 200 mg/day plus ziprasidone 80 mg/day, or sertraline 100 to 200 mg/day plus ziprasidone 160 mg/day. The trial was conducted from May 2001 to October 2002. Ziprasidone was administered twice daily. Primary efficacy measure was the least squares mean change on the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score from baseline of the 8-week phase to study end point.
Results: In total, 64 subjects were randomly assigned to sertraline monotherapy (N = 21), sertraline plus ziprasidone 80 mg/day (N = 23), or sertraline plus ziprasidone 160 mg/day (N = 20). Mean ± SE improvement in MADRS total score on adjunctive ziprasidone 80 mg/day and ziprasidone 160 mg/day versus monotherapy, respectively, was -5.98 ± 1.87 and -8.27 ± 2.17 versus -4.45 ± 2.03 (p = NS). Response rates for these groups were 19% (N = 4), 32% (N = 6), and 10% (N = 2), respectively (p = NS). No clinically significant changes were reported on physical examination, laboratory tests, or electrocardiogram on either adjunctive dose of ziprasidone.
Conclusions: In this preliminary study of antidepressant-resistant subjects with major depression, adjunctive ziprasidone was associated with greater clinical effect than was continued sertraline monotherapy and was generally well tolerated. These data suggest that further controlled study of ziprasidone in treatment-resistant depression is warranted.

The Kelley Blue Book provides used car values, including for Toyota Tacomas, both online and in print. The online Kelley Blue Book provides private party, trade-in and retail values for used cars manufactured within the last 13 years. A Toyota Tacoma's value depends on its age, mileage, drive train, factory-purchased options and overall condition. However, on average, the Tacoma holds its value better than any other SUV or truck, explains AutoGuide.com.Continue Reading
As of September 2015, an average 3-year-old Toyota Tacoma is worth between 75 and 80 percent of its purchase price, while a 5-year-old Tacoma retains about sixty percent of its value. The Tacoma retains its value so well because of its versatility and reliability. Its mid-sized form factor makes it easy to maneuver, and it still has the bed, weight and towing capacity for most projects. The Tacoma is also a capable off-road vehicle that runs for hundreds of thousands of miles.
Customers wishing to value a car with Kelley Blue Book can use the print edition, which covers the last 15 years of used car values, or the company's website, which covers the last 13. Customers value their cars by indicating year, make, model and mileage. Afterwards, they can select any additional features, indicate their cars' condition on a five-level scale from poor to excellent and receive a value.Learn more about Car Makes & Models

There, she learns the ins and outs of their delicate alebrije making process and tastes an outrageously delicious liver and eggs meal prepared for the artists. In her kitchen, those eggs are an inspiration for an Oaxacan-themed breakfast. And because the art of San Martin is all about attention to detail, she's doing the opposite in her kitchen and preparing a meal for her boys with the theme of 'the messier the better.'

5:00 amRacing The Rez For the Navajo and Hopi, running is much more than a sport, it is woven into the cultural fabric of their lives.

In the rugged canyon lands of Northern Arizona, Navajo and Hopi cross-country runners from two rival high schools vie for the state championship while striving to find their place among their native people and the larger American culture. Win or lose, what they learn over the course of two racing seasons has a dramatic effect on the rest of their lives.
Combining interviews with verite-style shooting, this documentary offers a rare view into the surprising complexity and diversity of contemporary reservation life, from the point of view of five teenage boys on the cusp of adulthood. It follows Ryan, Dennis, Billy, Johnny and Joyai from the classrooms to their remote, un-electrified homes, from grueling runs across canyons and mesas to their ultimate day of reckoning - the state meet - and beyond. duration 56:46 STEREO TVG (Secondary audio: none)

Sure, but which moon? The kids decide to compare the frozen moons Europa, which orbits Jupiter, and Enceladus, which orbits Saturn. They get help from Carrot and Celery, who fly them to each one, and Sean gets to walk on them. Curriculum: The gas giants Jupiter and Saturn each have around 60 moons - each of them unique. Interestingly, each gas giant has a frozen ice moon that contains a warmer liquid ocean under the surface: Jupiter's moon Europa, and Saturn's moon Enceladus. Each moon has its own similarities and differences.

As they learn about what a black hole really is, Mitchell discovers that science holds enough mysteries to keep him busy for many years. Curriculum: Black holes are strange little holes in space that are like vacuum cleaners that use gravity (instead of suction) to suck things in. A black hole is what remains when a massive star dies. They send out no light and have very strong gravity. Once a planet or star has been sucked into the black hole, it cannot escape, and compresses to a very small size. duration 28:46 SRND51 TVY (Secondary audio: DVI)

MIAMI GARDENS — Marlins second baseman Dan Uggla had two lifelong dreams: to become a major league baseball player and to become a father. Both wishes came true within four days.
Uggla wasn't alone. Teammates Cody Ross, Josh Willingham and Mike Jacobs, also 2006 rookies, made the same double play during the past two seasons.
Talk of first hits, first road trips and first home runs grew to include talk of first steps, first smiles and first words.
These baby Marlins further unite a group of young players and their families. The players learned to lean on each other not only in the clubhouse but also in fatherhood.
The baby boom started before the 2006 season. Uggla and his wife, Tara, had their son, Jackson, on March 30. Twelve hours later, Uggla left on a 10-day road trip to make his major league debut.
Summer Ross and Ginger Willingham were pregnant before spring training. Three weeks after the 2006 season ended, the outfielders became fathers.
"It was a test on and off the field," Ross said. "I'm trying to establish myself and show the Marlins I could hit and try to prove myself all over again. At the same time, I'm trying to comfort my wife and make her as comfortable as possible."
Ross, Uggla and Willingham were present for the births of their sons. Jacobs wasn't so lucky.
By the end of spring training the next season, infielder Jacobs and his wife, Vanessa, were expecting twin girls.
The babies were due in September. But in July, Vanessa Jacobs was hospitalized with pre-eclampsia, a serious condition that affects the blood pressure of pregnant women.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
For meatballs: combine lamb, 2 teaspoons of the spice mix, the ground matzoh crackers, 2 cloves garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 3/4 cup feta cheese. Mix until combined but do not overmix. Divide into 16 equal portions; shape into meatballs. Place meatballs on rack over cookie sheet so grease will drain from meatballs while cooking; bake 20 minutes.
For sauce: heat olive oil in saucepan over medium heat and add shallots and remaining garlic. Cook until limp and translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add tomatoes, remainder of spice mix, cinnamon, pepper, remainder of the salt, chicken stock, and parsley. Bring to boil; reduce to a simmer and cook until thick, about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Cook pasta according to package directions; drain.
To cooked sauce add sliced green onion, and meatballs stirring gently to coat. Serve meatballs with sauce over pasta and garnish with remaining feta cheese.
In a blender or coffee grinder pulse coriander, rosemary, thyme, cumin, marjoram, oregano, and onion until a fine consistency.

16 December 2011
The Russian word for Botox was trending on Twitter last night, further fuelling rumours that the countrys prime minister has had anti-ageing treatments. The resurgence of the speculation surrounding Vladimir Putin was prompted by his televised address to the nation, in which he put forward arguments for his return to the presidency in the New Year. He appeared looking smooth and wrinkle-free for the cameras, particularly around the eye area.Many people believe that the 59-year-old looks younger than his years and cosmetic surgery and Botox rumours began circulating at a press conference in October last year, when he appeared to have bruising around one eye. At the same press conference he also appeared to be wearing heavy makeup. Of the incident, his spokesman said that it was not bruising but rather the light falling awkwardly on his face. Leading plastic surgeons have commented that he may well have had Botox in his forehead, surgery to remove eye bags and dermal fillers in his cheeks.

My post about Pam Karlan as a potential Supreme Court nominee (see below) got more play than I expected. (I'm always surprised when someone reads something I write. Usually, I think: this can't be a good use of readers' time . . .) Which is all to the good: I think Pam would be marvelous in that job. But Pam isn't the only first-rate candidate under discussion. My former boss Elena Kagan would likewise be terrific. A big part of the reason why goes to an idea that has attracted a lot of attention of late: empathy.
Most of the talk about empathy and judging is silly. Roughly speaking, empathy means a combination of passion and understanding. Does anyone want Justices who don't understand how some important piece of the world works? Should we fill the Supreme Court with Justices who are less than passionate about doing justice? These questions answer themselves. In any event, Karlan and Kagan share an important virtue in this regard: both have professional experiences that are unusual among candidates for this job—and both have exhibited the combination of understanding, detachment, and passion that the best lawyers bring to the table. Karlan may be the best voting rights litigator in the country; she knows the world of Southern black politics like few others. (She also knows Bill James. How cool is that?) Valuable as that is, this is more valuable still: Karlan genuinely loves her clients, and she is zealous about the business of protecting and enforcing their rights. Good for her. Kagan knows how a White House works from her time in the White House Counsel's office under Bill Clinton, useful information for one who sits in judgment of presidents' actions. More important still, Kagan has run the equivalent of a medium-sized business—and she ran it with a combination of cool-headed detachment and genuine devotion, for the institution she ran and for the people who work here. Good for her too. I'd still pick Pam first, but it's a close call.

Allison Janney and Broadway Stars Join American Heart Association's Go Red For Women® to Celebrate the 10th National Wear Red Day®
Stars from movies, TV and Broadway help America "Go Red" and shine a spotlight on heart disease - the #1 killer of women
Jan 30, 2013, 09:14 EST
DALLAS, Jan. 30, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The American Heart Association's Go Red For Women® is asking America to go RED in celebration of the 10th National Wear Red Day® on February 1, 2013. For 10 years, women have been fighting heart disease – the No. 1 killer of women – both individually and together as part of the Go Red For Women movement. To date, more than 627,000 women's lives have been saved, but the fight is far from over. Women need the right information, education and care, in order to treat, prevent, and even end heart disease.
To view the multimedia assets associated with this release, please click http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/allison-janney-and-broadway-stars-join-american-heart-associations-go-red-for-women-to-celebrate-the-10th-national-wear-red-day-188951201.html
"An estimated 43 million women in the U.S. are affected by heart disease, yet only one in five women believe heart disease is her greatest health threat," said Dr. Jennifer Mieres, Professor of Cardiology and Senior Vice President of Community and Public Health at North Shore – LIJ Health System. "That's why it's so important to understand your personal risk factors and often-overlooked common symptoms, and to share that information with the women you love."
"I was shocked to learn that heart disease is more deadly than all forms of cancer combined," said Go Red For Women supporter Allison Janney. "My mother's quadruple bypass surgery was an eye-opening experience. I'm now making heart healthy changes to reduce my own risk, and have joined with Go Red For Women to educate other women about what they can do. Together, women have the power to save our own lives."
To mark ten years of the fight against heart disease in women, the American Heart Association's Go Red For Women is asking Americans to raise awareness about heart disease and Go Red in new and bold ways – turning every landmark, every Main Street, every organization, social media page and home RED to shine a spotlight on the No. 1 killer of women.
Watch and Share the New Allison Janney PSA & Go Red's 10-Year Video
To educate women about the realities of this silent killer, Go Red For Women has teamed up with award-winning actress Allison Janney to debut a new public service announcement, Go Red Allison Janney PSA.
Embed Code:
Go Red For Women also produced "10 Years of Fighting Women and Heart Disease," to celebrate the achievements in women's heart health and provide a retrospective look at the decade-long fight against women's No. 1killer. To watch and share this video, visit: http://youtu.be/QnNQgr4iWvg.

Star Jones & Broadway Casts Kick-Off 'America Goes Red'
On Thursday, January 31, the eve of the 10th National Wear Red Day, Go Red For Women is hosting a lighting ceremony at Macy's Herald Square in New York City – the first iconic building to turn red. Macy's is a founding national sponsor of Go Red For Women and has raised $40 million to support the cause since 2004.
Star Jones, the American Heart Association's national volunteer, invites New Yorkers to kick off National Wear Red Day at Macy's with some of Broadway's hottest talents including Judy Kaye from Nice Work If You Can Get It and performances from Motown: The Musical's Valisia LeKae and the cast of STOMP!
Local Go Red For Women events will be held across the country throughout the month of February, featuring screenings of a new "10 Years of Fighting Heart Disease in Women" video, appearances by local celebrities and heart disease survivors. Learn more about local events by visiting GoRedForWomen.org.
Macy's and Stylist Clinton Kelly Share Easy Ways to Go Red
In anticipation of National Wear Red Day, Go Red For Women teamed up with Macy's and celebrity stylist and TV personality Clinton Kelly to show women they can wear red in bold and fun, new ways. Clinton filmed video vignettes that showcase four stylish red looks worn by inspiring real women who have been personally affected by heart disease, which showcase dresses designed exclusively for Macy's. Starting January 30th, three dresses are available at select Macy's stores and on Macys.com with 10% of the purchase price benefiting Go Red For Women. Clinton's 'Go Red' fashion tips and the Macy's red dresses can be found here: www.GoRedForWomenEPK.com
Macy's is a founding national sponsor of Go Red For Women and has raised $40 million to support the cause since 2004.
Turn Your Social Channels RED
This year, Go Red For Women has made it even easier for Americans to show their support on National Wear Red Day. The Go Red For Women Wear Red Day Toolkit is a new resource that offers fun & easy ways to go RED via social media, such as connecting with the movement on Twitter at @GoRedForWomen, sharing hard-hitting stats about women and heart disease using the #GoRed hashtag or creating a Go Red Pinterest board with your favorite RED looks or heart-healthy foods.

15 political clichés journalists should avoid
Politico's Mike Allen, founder of the influential Beltway tipsheet "Playbook," once wrote that those who write in clichés are probably thinking in clichés, too. As news organizations prepare to cover the 2016 election, here are some hackneyed words and phrases they should consider leaving off the campaign bus:
New York Times standards editor Philip Corbett weighed in Tuesday with a list of well-worn words that sneak into The Times' coverage:
"I can project with confidence that we will see far too many uses of "optics," "narrative," "pivot," "war chest" and "coffers" in the months between now and November 2016."

A 2012 election style guide from The Associated Press offers a litany of stale verbiage. The biggest cringers:
- pressing the flesh ("shaking hands is preferred.")
- rainbow colors: ("Instead, use "Democratic-leaning, Republican-tilting or swing-voting, etc.")
- hat in the ring: ("a candidate decided to run for an office")
- veepstakes: ("the competition to be a candidate's running mate.")
- horse race: ("closely contested political contest.")
Meanwhile, The Washington Post has this index of 200-plus journalism clichés to avoid. The most egregious offenders:
- A favorite Washington parlor game
- Game-changer
- Hotly contested
- Political football
- Partisans on both sides
In September, Poynter conducted a minuscule, non-scientific poll to see which words journalists couldn't stand. The worst stinker? Ballyhoo, with 56 percent of the vote. Other contenders were lambaste, opine, salvo and pontiff.

Crop Management Challenges Increase With Early Corn Planting
Pioneer provides tips for managing early-season stress
DES MOINES, Iowa.- The trend toward planting corn earlier continues to grow. The reasons include increasing farm size and the need to cover a large number of acres within a shorter window of time at the beginning of the season and avoiding potential late-season drought and pest problems at the end. According to scientists with Pioneer Hi-Bred, a DuPont business, this trend presents growers with several crop management challenges that can impact crop productivity significantly.
Select best planting date
Selecting the best planting date is the most critical decision growers must make to enable a crop to have a successful start, says Imad Saab, Ph.D., Pioneer research scientist. "Growers should pay close attention to weather forecasts and consider specific field conditions and characteristics before deciding on a planting date.
Knowing the history of your fields - what planting dates have worked, the soil type and drainage characteristics - is very beneficial, says Saab. Growers should consider waiting for warmer conditions before planting fields that are not as well drained or those with a track record of early-season insect pressure or seedling blight.
Saab cautions that growers may not pay enough attention to near-term forecasts. Growers who plant ahead of an inclement weather event, such as snow or heavy rain, are typically at a higher risk of losing stand to stress. We often hear of growers who speed up planting just ahead of a snowstorm to get the crop in the ground, says Saab. There often are significant disadvantages to getting a crop in the ground just ahead of a cold spell. The corn crop typically needs several days of good weather after planting for successful crop emergence. In fact, growers tell us they usually have better stands if they shut down the planter at least a couple of days ahead of a cold event.
Saab also cautions growers not to plant if soil temperature is below 50 degrees.
Plant well-drained, low-residue fields first
Fields that drain better also warm up faster, which is much more conducive to rapid emergence and seedling growth.
Growers planting corn early should try to avoid fields with drainage issues, says Saab. Besides being typically colder, waterlogged fields can hurt stand establishment severely, since corn has very little tolerance to flooding. Fields with better drainage can be planted earlier and give crops a better chance of being successful.
Select stress-tolerant hybrids
Research has shown that corn crops experiencing stress immediately after planting can suffer significant stand losses. Saab points out that choosing hybrids with good early-season stress tolerance is an effective way to help offset these losses. Saab says Pioneer puts all corn hybrids through rigorous stress tests in multiple sites across North America. We plant our hybrids early in a range of stressful conditions including no-till and corn on corn, Saab says. "We also test our hybrids in proprietary lab stress tests designed to simulate highly stressful conditions.
We test for stress emergence, which is the genetic ability to emerge and establish stand under less than optimal conditions, explains Saab. We assign each hybrid a 1 to 9 stress emergence score which is listed in our product catalogs. Hybrids with a higher score are typically better suited for early planting or planting into colder or high-residue seedbeds.
Saab says Pioneer is making genetic improvements continually in the ability to establish stands under stress.
Were using biotechnology and molecular breeding tools to identify genes associated with stress emergence, Saab says. We have made significant genetic improvements in this critical trail, and these tools will help accelerate genetic gain for early-season stress tolerance.
Effective seed treatment
Seedling pathogens such as Pythium and Fusarium often are more problematic in early planting conditions if the seedlings are weakened by cold or waterlogging. Saab says to combat this, Pioneer offers Dynasty® fungicide (azoxystrobin) plus a seed-applied insecticide. This treatment also includes the standard Maxim® XL fungicide and a polymer that improves plantability and reduces dust-off. Pioneer research has shown this combination is the premier seed treatment for corn stand establishment in the industry.
Insecticide seed treatments have proven to be very effective at protecting stands in stressful environments, Saab said. Although these are insecticides, they also protect against seedling disease by reducing insect feeding and depriving pathogens of points of entry. These provide effective control of secondary insects such as wireworms, seed corn maggots and white grubs. However, our research has shown that higher rates of ISTs may be needed to maximize control of these insects under heavy infestations. These insects tend to be active early in the season and can cause significant stand reductions, especially if emergence is slow due to stress.

Freddie Mercury (Farrukh Bulsara) (1946 – 1991) – singer, vocalist «Queen» group, musician, composer, poet.
Freddie Mercury was born on September 5, 1946 on the island of Zanzibar. His parents were Parsis. Name Freddie stuck the boy when he began attending St. Peter's school. At school age, in his biography of Freddie Mercury he was fond of tennis, all-around. Well studied, he studied painting and music. While in school he graduated from the course of playing the piano. And in 1958, Freddie Mercury and his friends organized a group of «The Hectics», which played at school parties.
In 1962, Freddie returned to Zanzibar, but soon his family moved to England. There he began to study at the Ecole Polytechnique, but intensely studied painting and graphics. In his spare time he worked as a loader, because his family was poor. After high school he entered the Mercury London Ealing Art College, where he studied graphic illustrating. Freddie longer live with their parents, taking off an apartment. Soon life Freddie Mercury was an important event – he met with the leader of «Smile» group. Then he began to attend rehearsals the group got to know Brian May, Roger Taylor. After finishing art college, Mercury with Taylor opened his shop.
In August 1969 Mercury met with the musicians of «Ibex» (later renamed in «Wreckage»), soon began to speak with them. But the band did not last long, and Mercury entered a new team: «Sour Milk Sea». There are also the musicians union was not long.
In 1970, he made his return to the «Smile». Soon the band changed its name to «Queen». Place a guitarist, after a long search and several candidates took John Deacon. Freddy has created a logo for the group to include elements of British heraldry. Two years later, Freddie decided to take the stage name Mercury (previously wore his name). In 1972 they released their first album. Mercury was the author of several hits first «Queen»: «Bohemian Rhapsody», «Killer Queen». The group became famous all over the world, touring in different countries began. In 1979, in the biography of singer Freddie Mercury, a joint statement from the English Royal Ballet.
1980 marked a new period for the singer, Freddie even changed the image, he began to wear a mustache and hair cut short. Taking advantage of vacation and touring suspension, Mercury engaged in solo career. Initially, he released the song «Love Kills» (1984). And in 1985 he released the album «Mr. Bad Guy ». Joint work with Montserrat Caballe has resulted in several general statements at various festivals.
Since 1986, in the press there were rumors about the singer's illness, he completely denied. Its with AIDS disease known only to those closest. In 1989, «Queen» refused to tour. This period in the life of Freddie Mercury dedicated songwriting, because he wanted to publish as much as possible. Following the solo album «Barcelona» followed albums «Queen»: «The Miracle» and «Innuendo».
November 23, 1991 Mercury officially confirmed that the suffering from AIDS, and the next day he died of bronchial pneumonia.
To this day, Freddie Mercury remains one of the most famous and popular singers of the world scale. In his honor, a concert was given in 1992, which were many stars and friends of the artist.

Frozen Fisticuffs Fight Of The Night — Rinaldo vs. Shaw — 1/5/12
Last night's game between the Chicago Blackhawks and the Philadelphia Flyers at the Wells Fargo Center was a rematch of the Stanley Cup Finals from two years ago, and it certainly did not disappoint, as it provided us with a total of nine goals and one entertaining fight between the Flyers' Zac Rinaldo and the Hawks' Andrew Shaw.
Rinaldo wasn't playing for the Flyers when they reached the finals in 2010, but if he was looking for some revenge for his teammates, he seemed to get it. And he also earned himself a spot on the "Frozen Fisticuffs Fight of the Night" for Thursday, January 5, 2012.

Econsultancy and LBi / bigmouthmedia have launched the 2011 State of Social Media survey, which aims to benchmark trends and levels of spending within the market.
As with similar studies published in 2009 and 2010, the research is based on a survey of client-side marketers and in-house PR professionals, as well as agencies, consultants and other specialists working in the social media arena.
More than 600 companies have already completed the survey since Friday, a great response which shows that interest in this topic shows no sign of abating.
Respondents taking part in this research will get a free, advance copy of the final research report, normally worth £250 ($400) and only available to Econsultancy paying subscribers.
As with last year's research, the survey covers a wide range of topics including social media content, budgets, resourcing and metrics, as well as specific questions about the use of Facebook, Twitter and Google+.
Last year's results indicated that investment is still modest, with 28% of respondents in 2010 not spending anything on social media. A third of companies (33%) were spending less than £5,000 annually. It's been suggested that the lack of investment specifically relates to a lack of understanding about how to measure the impact of social media, and it will be useful to see how this has changed over the last year.
A lack of investment can prevent some companies from being able to measure the impact of social media as effectively as they would like, as organisations need to have the right tools, people and processes in place to benchmark how they are performing. And, lack of investment can also prevent companies from effective social media in the first place.
In last year's survey, some 83% of companies reported that they expected social media investment to increase over the next year, and it will be noteworthy to see how many companies have followed through with this plan for increased investment.
An interesting addition to this latest social media survey is the introduction of Google+. Although companies cannot have a professional profile on Google+ yet, publishers can place the +1 button on their site, meaning that users can recommend links to people in their 'circles', and also publish and share content on their Google Plus profiles. Google has said that pages for businesses are due to be launched later this year.
The deadline for taking part in this year's State of Social Media survey is Friday 30 September 2011.
Comments (1)
With the introduction of Google+, i think last years figure of 83% is extremely likely to rise. Social media is, in my view, even stronger than last year and will continue to grow and shape the future of online activity with the number of social media users ever increasing.

Gretna — A study commissioned by a Gretna politician to determine how to handle the city's burgeoning coyote problem came up with a solution that might annoy some residents: The city plans to do nothing.
Councilman Vincent Cox III said he thinks that is the best course of action after reading over a report prepared by naturalist Leland Hayes about coyotes roaming through Gretna City Park. Cox's reluctance to kill or remove the coyotes isn't due to governmental inertia or sentimentality, but rather because the report states that allowing the current small group of coyotes to remain in the park could prevent their numbers from growing. Cox said letting the animals roam the park might not make every resident happy, but it makes the most sense.
"So basically the coyotes aren't a threat," said Cox, who sought the study in February. "I'm content. The people in my district are content."
The study found that there are currently between two and four coyotes living in the park likely as part of a "stable family unit" with one dominant male. Leland Hayes, a wildlife control officer hired by the city, said in his report that this is a good sign because that group will likely protect the park from incursions by other coyotes.
Cox requested the study, which he set aside $3,700 for, after he heard coyotes howling at night, and residents reported seeing them running through the park. There were even reports of the animals dragging off family pets, but Cox said those reports turned out to be false.
However, that didn't stop residents from expressing concern about the safety of pets and children who use the park, particularly since the city is considering opening a new dog park there.
Cox said the reality is that as long as residents practice care with their pets, it doesn't make sense for the city to kill the animals. If the current group is eliminated, a new group will just move in, and that group might not be as harmless. However, Cox did acknowledge that because one of the coyotes is pregnant, that could create future problems. A new litter means that the current children will be driven away, and it's unclear where they would relocate. Councilman Belinda Constant joked that she hoped that didn't come to her district.
"Are they going to run to Fried and Second Street?" she exclaimed.
Cox said the city can always kill the coyotes if that's necessary, and Gretna is considering leaving up cameras to track the animals.
"I think we've done everything we can," he said.

Item Summary
|The metabolism of dithiocarbamate fungicides by papaya (Carica papaya)
|Chin, Byong Han
|Issue Date:
|The appearance of phytotoxic symptoms following the application of dithiocarbamate fungicides has been reported in a number of instances. Delayed phytotoxicities such as leaf spotting in peach, pear, and apple, and leaf damage to tobacco, apple, and papaya have been observed following the application of dialkyldithiocarbamates but not with the monoalkyl analogs. This suggests that the two classes of fungicides are metabolized differently by plants. Study of the metabolism of dimethyldithiocarbamates in papaya was undertaken to assess the importance of the above observations. Dimethyldithiocarbamate (DDC) labeled with 14C in the methyl groups or 35S in the dithiocarbamate function was applied either as the potassium or zinc salt to leaves and roots of papaya seedlings from 1 to 3 months old. Surface residues, volatile metabolites, and translocated materials found in root, stem, leaf, and cell sap were assayed at various times after application of labeled compound. The results of this work show that part of the fungicidal residue is hydrolyzed on the surface, presumably to carbon disulfide and dimethylamine, both of which could be recovered as volatile metabolites. This hydrolysis is more rapid with the potassium salt than with the zinc salt presumably due to insolubility of the latter. An appreciable portion of the applied 35S label has been found in sulfur amino acids (free and in proteins) and inorganic sulfate. Whether this is due to the oxidation of carbon disulfide or some dimethyldithiocarbamate metabolite is not known. In the case of methyl 14C labeled compounds, carbon dioxide was collected as a volatile metabolite and 14C was found in many plant constituents. The exact mechanism for the transformation of dimethy1amine methyl groups to carbon dioxide is unknown. Among the metabolites isolated, the largest amount of foliarly applied radioactivity (22% for 14c-KDDC and 11% for 35S-KDDC ) was recovered from the cell sap as dimethyldithiocarbamy1 glucoside, identified by paper chromatography and chemical analysis. Lesser amounts were present as dimethyldithiocarbamyl alanine and 4 other unidentified radioactive compounds. Recoveries of applied radioactivity ranged from 28% to 55% for 35S-KDDC , from 33% to 99% for 14c-KDDC , when applied to leaves. Phytotoxicity was never observed with the more rapidly decomposed KDDC whereas it was seen with Zn(DDC)2. The available data indicate that a slow but prolonged evolution of carbon disulfide and dimethylamine on the leaf surface as observed with Zn(DDC)2 may result in chronic poisoning of sensitive enzyme systems. The rapid hydrolysis and release of volatile metabolites from ICDDC does not appear to cause any phytotoxicity.
