"It's pretty simple really; easy to apply, a lot smaller quantity. It worked equal or better than regular talc; absolutely no issues whatsoever," said Ed Benjamins, a grower from Ontario, Canada.
DECATUR, Ill. (PRWEB) August 27, 2013
As part of its commitment to sustainable agriculture, Bayer CropScience today announced very favorable field trial results of its new seed application technology, which is designed to further reduce potential dust exposure to honey bees during a typical planting process, while offering improved handling efficiencies to corn farmers.
The use of lubricants, such as talc and graphite, are a standard recommendation by seed planter manufacturers to reduce friction and improve uniformity, but recent scientific publications on this topic have triggered a debate as to the relationship between the already low level of exposure of dust from these planters and potential acute effects on bees. As an alternative, the new Bayer fluency agent– made of a polyethylene wax substrate – was shown to significantly decrease dust and emissions during laboratory testing:
o Ninety percent reduction in total dust versus talc
o Sixty percent reduction in total dust versus graphite
To follow up on the promising laboratory research, this past spring, Bayer conducted large-scale field studies – covering more than 40,000 acres – throughout North America with growers and in collaboration with major planter manufacturers in the U.S. and Canada. The purpose of these trials was to evaluate the new fluency agent's commercial viability under field conditions.
"We were impressed by the success of this new fluency agent when we examined the field trial results," said Bill Hairston, director of product development, SeedGrowth, Bayer CropScience. "Although potential exposure from corn planting is relatively rare, cooperation among applicators, growers and beekeepers is a critical part of effective best-management practices for seed treatment applications and important for pollinator health."
Based on feedback, growers who participated in the trials thought the new fluency agent:
- Performed equal to or better than comparable talc or graphite lubricants;
- Was less dusty during application and was easier to avoid dust when checking boxes; and
- Showed equivalent results at significantly lower use rates than talc when comparing planting uniformity.
When asked to describe his experience with the Bayer fluency agent, Ed Benjamins, a grower from Ontario, Canada said, "It's pretty simple really; easy to apply, a lot smaller quantity. It worked equal or better than regular talc; absolutely no issues whatsoever."
Bayer will finalize its analysis of the results of the field trials and work with growers, planter equipment manufacturers and other stakeholders to determine the commercial viability of its fluency agent.
Bayer has been actively involved in finding solutions to improve honey bee health for more than 25 years. Its Bee Care Program includes initiatives designed to further bee health research, engagement and discussion and bring Bayer's extensive experience and knowledge in bee health under one platform. Bee Care Program initiatives include:
- Bayer's participation in National Pollinator Week continued to raise awareness about the importance of honey bees to agriculture through a reception on the Hill, employee family day, inaugural community leadership award and second annual Pollinator Pledge,
- The North American Bee Care Center, which broke ground in May at the North American Bayer CropScience Headquarters in Research Triangle Park, N.C., will aid the advancement of honey bee research by providing a state-of-the-art facility to support worldwide bee health initiatives,
- The Bee Care Tour, a mobile exhibit which traveled to Midwestern university agriculture schools this spring to foster education and collaboration among growers, beekeepers, researchers and others interested in honey bee health, and
- Bee Ambassador Program, a field staff training campaign dedicated to cultivating dialogue and awareness around topics related to honey bee management and health.
Bayer is dedicated to crop protection and is committed to environmental stewardship and sustainable agricultural practices, including the protection of beneficial insects such as honey bees.

Mostly because I'm participating in a promotion for the month of October, called 30 Days of Indie Horror! (Oh, come on, you had to know it was all about me, didn't you? ha ha ) My collection, Zombie Town, is being featured on October 6th. You can read one of the short stories for free, yo.
Julie is also having a Rafflecopter drawing for some books from her publishing company, so if you'd like a chance to get some free horror books, check it out. And while you're there, enjoy some good fiction by indie authors. There are lots of good writing to be had in the indie world.
To see the schedule of authors, and get more info on the drawing, you can check out this post of Julie's.
I'm pretty excited to have my collection listed there, and to give folks an opportunity to check out one of the stories (it's the whole story, not just an excerpt, too). This is a story I wrote especially for the collection, so it hasn't been posted anywhere else before now.
The book is actually selling pretty well for short stories, so I'm pleased with that. Novels seem to sell best, and novels in a series best of all, so having people buy the collection is pretty awesome.
I'm working on a few things that I want to have ready to publish before the end of the year, mainly a science fiction novel (tentatively called Landfall) that I've been working on for a while now, but keep putting on the back burner, and the sequel to Bound in Amber. I'm plotting out a few other things, like a couple of SF romance serials, one of which I'd like to start this month, a horror novel and a PA book about an asteroid impact.
The last two would be the first stuff out early next year, and there's lots more I have on my idea list.

History of the Astrolabe
Following is a very brief overview of the history of the astrolabe. See the Links page for references to much more detailed and comprehensive treatments.
Origins of Astrolabe Theory
The origins of the astrolabe were in classical Greece. Apollonius (ca. 225 BC), the great codifier of conic sections, probably studied the astrolabe projection. The most influential individual on the theory of the astrolabe projection was Hipparchus who was born in Nicaea in Asia Minor (now Iznik in Turkey) about 180 BC but studied and worked on the island of Rhodes. Hipparchus, who also discovered the precession of the equinoxes and was influential in the development of trigonometry, redefined and formalized the projection as a method for solving complex astronomical problems without spherical trigonometry and probably proved its main characteristics. Hipparchus did not invent the astrolabe, but he did refine the projection theory.
The earliest evidence of use of the stereographic projection in a machine is in the writing of the Roman author and architect, Marcus Vitruvius Pollio (ca. 88 - ca. 26 BC), who in De architectura describes an anaphoric clock (probably a clepsydra or water clock) in Alexandria. The clock had a rotating field of stars behind a wire frame indicating the hours of the day. The wire framework (the spider) and the star locations were constructed using the stereographic projection. Similar constructions dated from the first to third century and have been found in Salzburg and northeastern France, so such mechanisms were apparently fairly widespread among Romans. See the page on the anaphoric star disk for a description of a modern recreation of the anaphoric clock.
The first major writer on the projection was the famous Claudius Ptolemy (ca. AD 150) who wrote extensively on it in his work known as the Planisphaerium. There are tantalizing hints in Ptolemy's writing that he may have had an instrument that could justifiably be called an astrolabe. Ptolemy also refined the fundamental geometry of the Earth-Sun system that is used to design astrolabes.
Early Astrolabes
No one knows exactly when the stereographic projection was actually turned into the instrument we know today as the astrolabe. Theon of Alexandria (ca. 390) wrote a treatise on the astrolabe that was the basis for much that was written on the subject in the Middle Ages. Synesius of Cyrene (378-430) apparently had an instrument constructed that was arguably a form of astrolabe. This is plausible since Synesius was a student of Hypatia, Theon's daughter. The earliest descriptions of actual instruments were written by John Philoponos of Alexandria (a.k.a. Joannes Grammaticus) in the sixth century and a century later by Severus Sebokht, Bishop of Kenneserin, Syria, although it is likely that Sebokht's work was derivative from Theon. It is certain that true astrolabes existed by the seventh century.
The Astrolabe in Islam
The astrolabe was introduced to the Islamic world the mid-eighth century. The astrolabe was fully developed during the early centuries of Islam. Arab treatises on the astrolabe were published in the ninth century and indicate a long familiarity with the instrument (the oldest existing instruments are Arabic from the tenth century, and there are nearly 40 instruments from the 11th and 12th centuries). The astrolabe was inherently valuable in Islam because of its ability to determine the astronomically defined prayer times and as an aid in finding the direction to Mecca (the qibla). It must also be noted that astrology was a deeply imbedded element of early Islamic culture and astrology was one of the principle uses of the astrolabe. The picture is from a larger painting of the observatory at Istanbul in the 16th century.
Persian astrolabes became quite complex, and some were genuine works of art. There are a number of interesting stylistic differences between astrolabes from the eastern Islamic areas (the Mashriq), Northern Africa (the Maghrib) and Moorish Spain (al-Andalus). The astrolabe was also used in Mughal India in a somewhat less elaborate style.
The Astrolabe in Europe
The astrolabe moved with Islam through North Africa into Spain (al-Andalus) where it was introduced to European culture through Christian monasteries in northern Spain. It is likely that information about the astrolabe was available in Europe as early as the 11th century, but European usage was not widespread until the 13th and 14th centuries. The earliest astrolabes used in Europe were imported from Moslem Spain with Latin words engraved alongside the original Arabic. It is likely that European use of Arabic star names was influenced by these imported astrolabes. By the end of the 12th century there were at least a half dozen competent astrolabe treatises in Latin, and there were hundreds available only a century later. European makers extended the plate engravings to include astrological information and adapted the various timekeeping variations used in that era. Features related to Islamic prayers were not used on European instruments.
The clock in the picture is on the Prague, Czech Republic, town hall and was originally constructed in about 1410. Click on the picture for a more complete description.
The astrolabe was widely used in Europe in the late Middle Ages and Renaissance, peaking in popularity in the 15th and 16th centuries, and was one of the basic astronomical education tools. A knowledge of astronomy was considered to be fundamental in education and skill in the use of the astrolabe was a sign of proper breeding and education. Their primary use was, however, astrological. Geoffrey Chaucer thought it was important for his son to understand how to use an astrolabe, and his 1391 treatise on the astrolabe demonstrates a high level of astronomical knowledge.
Astrolabe manufacturing was centered in Augsburg and Nuremberg in Germany in the fifteenth century with some production in France. In the sixteenth century, the best instruments came from Louvain in Belgium. By the middle of the seventeenth century astrolabes were made all over Europe. It is likely that most early astrolabes were designed and built by a single individual. It is known that some particularly lovely examples were made by a team consisting of a designer, engraver and decorator. Later European instrument makers established workshops with several employees, but the style and level of workmanship was defined by the master and the workshops often closed when he retired or died. A particularly interesting workshop was founded by Georg Hartmann in Nuremberg in about 1525. It is clear that Hartmann used an early form of planned production to produce his high quality instruments. It is likely that most workshops acquired parts of finished instruments from specialists or other shops were employed for services such as gilding. Brass astrolabes were quite expensive, and only the wealthy could afford a good one. Paper astrolabes became available as printing developed, and many were surely made, although few survive.
The picture is a page from Elucidatio fabricae ususque astrolbii (1512), by Johannes Stoeffler, who was professor of mathematics at the University of Tübingen. This treatise was one of the most popular astrolabe references and established something of a standard for European astrolabe design.
Several interesting astrolabe variations known as universal astrolabes which make a single instrument usable in all latitudes were invented in the 15th and 16th centuries, but due to their high cost and complex operation, never gained the popularity of the planispheric type. These instruments projected the celestial sphere on the equinoctial colure and lacked the intuitive appeal of the planispheric type.
An astrolabe derivative where the circular astrolabe is reduced to a quadrant was described in 1288 by Profat Tibbon of Montpelior. Few examples of astrolabe quadrants, commonly called the quadrans novus (new quadrant) survive, but many treatises on its construction and use were published. A form of astrolabe quadrant was quite popular in the Ottoman Empire until the early 20th century. Several quadrants using the stereographic projection were introduced in the 17th century. One of the most popular was devised by Edmund Gunter (1581-1626) in 1618. Gunter's quadrant was quite easy to use in comparison to the older quadrans novus and become widely used.
The Astrolabe to Modern Times
The use of the astrolabe declined in the last half of the 17th century. The invention of the pendulum clock made clocks much more reliable, and more specialized and accurate scientific devices, such as the telescope, became available. Astrolabe production continued into the 19th century, particularly in the Arab world. Much like sundials, any instruments made today are for curiosity or fun, although the educational value of the astrolabe is still appreciated.
Astrology has had a major influence on the history and development of astronomy. The ancient astronomers were motivated to measure the positions of the stars and planets and to keep track of eclipses for astrological reasons (the word "horoscope" is from the Latin horoscopium which, in turn, is from the Greek words for "boundary" (the horizon) and "target" (object of observation). Their terminology, measurements and techniques were the foundation for the astronomical knowledge that eventually evolved.
Many old astrolabes had astrological features that would allow the user to determine horoscopes. Creating a horoscope requires knowledge of the positions of the planets and the ecliptic for a certain date and time. The astrologer interprets the aspects to advise his client. The astrolabe was a convenient way to determine a horoscope because much astrological stress was placed on the position of the ecliptic. Of particular interest were the ecliptic degree on the eastern horizon (the ascendant), the ecliptic degree on the western horizon (the descendent) and the ecliptic degree on the meridian (the degree of mid-heaven). In use, the astrolabe is set to the time and date of interest (birth, death, coronation, etc.) and the ecliptic degrees are read directly. The astrolabe could be used to find the "house" occupied by a planet, but an ephemeris was required to find the planetary coordinates for a date.

It's still the biggest audience ever to watch a televised tennis match: The 1973 throw-down at the Houston Astrodome between women's tennis star Billie Jean King and the former No. 1 player in the world, self-promoting chauvinist Bobby Riggs. At the height of the growing women's movement, it was dubbed "The Battle of the Sexes." Fifty million Americans tuned in to see if a woman could beat a man playing tennis.
Riggs was 55 and all mouth, telling women they should stay in the bedroom and the kitchen. King was 29, intensely focused, and quietly, lethally determined. Said King at the time, "He hustles off the court and I hustle on the court, and that's where it matters."
No one was betting on King. And yet, she humiliated Riggs, beating him in straight sets, 6-4, 6-3, 6-3. The game turned King into a household name and gave her what she really wanted: A platform from which to fight for equality in her sport, which was heavily tilted toward men in terms of playing opportunities and prize money. Little did she know that her crusade would take her far beyond tennis. "I just know how I want the world to look," says King today. "Like a team tennis match: Boys and girls on a level playing field."
And that's where PBS's "American Masters" comes in. For the first time in its 27-year history, the series will focus on a sports figure, while tapping friends and fellow players (Chris Evert, Margaret Court, Serena Williams, Hillary Clinton, Elton John) for perspective. "It's an honor," says King, who turns 70 in November, "but it's kind of like: What took you so long? There are so many great athletes. I don't think people think of us as performers, but we really are. And my tennis court is my stage."
She shared that stage with many others. Fighting for women's rights beyond tennis, King huddled with Gloria Steinem, who encouraged her to take advantage of the visibility of female athletes.
"The trouble with feminists at the time," says King, "is that most of them were feminists from the neck up. They were in their heads so much because they're so bright. But they didn't think about the whole body. We needed to trust that we were strong, and vital. That we could do anything that anybody else can do. Women's tennis has never said that we're better than the men. But we're just as entertaining."
King's fame grew along with her stack of titles. As a kid growing up "on the wrong side of the tracks" in Long Beach, California, she decided, at age 12, to become "the best player in the world." Her father was a firefighter, her mother sold Avon products door-to-door. In the beginning, there were no coaches, endorsements or free tennis shoes. In fact, her father refused to buy her first tennis racket, a lavender-trimmed number that cost $9.28. "He said, 'Great. You want it? Prove it.' " King did yard work for neighbors and earned the racket. She went on to win 39 grand slam events, including a record 20 titles at Wimbledon. Tied with Martina Navratilova, that record still holds today.
But the fame came a heavy price. Believing that she was "chubby," King says she had an eating disorder from the age of 15. At 21, she married a lawyer before knowing she was gay. The eventual self-knowledge was torture because she considers herself an honest person, and coming out threatened not only her marriage, but her relationship with her parents, the image of women's tennis and her lucrative income from endorsements.
"I tried to bring up the subject but felt I couldn't," says King. "My mother would say, 'We're not talking about things like that,' and I was pretty easily stopped because I was reluctant anyway."
Her painful 1981 outing, at age 38, became as public as her match with Riggs. King was sued by her one-time secretary, Marilyn Barnett, who refused to vacate King's home when the relationship ended. To their credit, King's husband and parents stood by her side at the press conference where she revealed the truth. But overnight, King lost $2 million in endorsements, becoming the first prominent female athlete to admit to being gay. In 1987, she finally divorced her husband, Lawrence King. But it would take many more years — until she was 51, she says — for her to "get comfortable in my own skin. I was finally able to talk about it properly with my parents and no longer did I have to measure my words. That was a turning point for me."
Her off-the-court work expanded into gay rights, and the fight against AIDS. She works closely with Elton John on fundraising for his AIDS foundation. John has repeatedly offered to play at her wedding, should she ever decide to marry her longtime partner, Ilana Kloss. Does King want to remarry? "Not necessarily," she says. "We've been living this way forever. We're fine." Then she smiles. "But Elton keeps pushing us."
Still politically active, she's determined to keep moving forward. And that's not easy when you've had seven knee surgeries, plus shoulder and foot surgery, much of it due to the pounding she took early on the California hard courts. But she looks terrific, blue eyes twinkling behind the burgundy glasses, skin remarkably smooth after so much time in the sun. Does she have any regrets? Clearly, the competitive fires still burn. "My only regret is that I had to do too much off the court," she says. "Deep down, I wonder how good I really could have been if I had concentrated just on tennis."

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) - An Arkansas judge has been censured by a state judicial panel for behaving "discourteously and in an undignified manner" toward defendants, her staff and others.
The Judicial Discipline and Disability Commission issued its letter of censure Friday to Pulaski County Circuit Judge Mary McGowan, who oversees the county's drug court.
The 70-year-old jurist was ordered to attend classes to learn "proper judicial demeanor." She must also allow commission staff into her courtroom to monitor her behavior. Terms of the censure will remain in place as long as she's a judge.
The commission cited multiple complaints against McGowan from 2016 and 2017, and noted that she's violated the judicial code of conduct on several prior occasions.
McGowan accepted the censure rather than file for a public appeal before the commission.

We sold our home in 2007 and carried back an interest only loan. The remaining principal was to be a lump sum payment in five years or less. The value of the home has dropped and we must agree to a reduced price. We paid tax on the portion of the gross profit that was covered by the down payment. Recalculating the profit with the new sale price results in no profit, so in retrospect, we paid unnecessary tax in 2007.For example: The 2007 sale price was $910,000.The basis was $350,000,including the cost of sale, thus our gain was $560,000.The gross profit after the $500,000 exclusion was $60,000. The gross profit percentage calculates to be 6.6%.We received a $250,000 down payment. As 6.6% of that was calculated to be profit, we paid tax on 6.6% of $250,000, or on an income of $16,500. This was all reported on form 6252 with the 2007 taxes. We carry an interest-only loan on the $660,000 unpaid balance. We have received interest and we paid tax on the interest. We have received no further principal and no additional form 6252s have been filed.Now we have to accept less for the home. Instead of $910,000, we will receive a total of $850,000, a reduction of $60,000. Had the $850,000 been the original sale price in 2007, there would have been zero gross profit, and we would not have paid tax on $16,500 income with our 2007 taxes.Q1: How should the final sale be reported?Q2: Can we get any of the tax back we paid with the 2007 taxes?Q3: Are there any other issues to be concerned with?

I would like to thank Professor Lessig for inviting me to begin a dialogue with you.
Wherever I travel throughout America, including here, the issue of corporate media and media accountability arises in every question and answer session. The American people are deeply concerned about the erosion of democracy, notably the impairment of free speech which has occurred through the increased concentration of market power in corporations which own newspapers, radio and television stations.
I've spent a great deal of time studying this issue. I hold bachelor's and master's degrees in speech and communication from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. During my academic career, I studied the Failing Newspaper Act, which provided for joint operating agreements (JOA), which presaged the death of afternoon newspapers in America. In my own lifespan, I've seen the city of Cleveland go from 3 daily newspapers, the Cleveland News, the Cleveland Press, and the Plain Dealer, to just one. I've studied the Federal Communications Act of 1934, which set specific responsibilities for broadcast license holders to serve "in the public interest, convenience, and necessity." H.L. Mencken, the famous critic, once wrote "freedom of the press is limited to those who own one." Indeed, the Constitution is liberally interpreted when it comes to the government having any role in directing what goes into print. And that is as it should be (that is not to abandon questions of horizontal and vertical market concentration). However, holders of broadcast licenses have specific responsibilities to the public. It is the public which owns the airwaves. The public provides a license in exchange for service. At the same time the definition of media has expanded to include interactive services, the requirements of service have been largely abandoned as media monopolies have grown more powerful. Community groups struggle for recognition, social and economic causes which run counter to vested interests are marginalized, and our politics are corrupted by having to raise huge amounts of money from one set of corporate interest to buy airtime from another set of corporate interests.
As the next President of the United States, I intend to address this issue directly. First, the Justice Department will engage in an ongoing dialogue with major media over how the public interests can be better served. Second, I will sign an executive order which will require all broadcast licensees to provide free time for all federal candidates. Third, additional funds will be appropriated for the support of public television and public radio. Fourth, community cable systems will receive guidance as to how they may more effectively enlist community participation in the airing of broadcast media programs. Fifth, a White House conference on the protection of the First Amendment and its relationship to media concentration will be formed to enlist the participation of academics, activists, and the industry, in order to facilitate a broader and more effective understanding of the central role which media plays in the life of our nation.
Your comments and suggestions are appreciated. It is through such dialogues on democracy that we can fulfill our responsibility to form a more perfect union.

1. "Great family interconnecting rooms"
Reviewed September 15, 2011 NEW
Found this great hotel via ta and Internet. As we are a family of 4 I was looking for accommodation to suit us. On the hotel recommendation I booked interconnecting rooms. Room one had a king size bed with separate bath witha spa bath. room two has two extra large single beds with own bathroom with a shower over te bath. Massive sitting area in each room. Breakfast was good, however I would disagree with other posts, we had our best every breakfast in Vietnam in hoi an. Nice covered pool in complex, friendly staff who speak quite good English and were easy to correspond with via email,.
Only gripe is the pillows on the beds were extremely thick. Would not hesitate to stay again.
Stayed September 2011
2. "Massive room, great view, rooftop pool...."
Reviewed September 5, 2011
Probably the most modern looking hotel we stayed in in VN, room on the 11th floor looking out towards the river, floor to celing windows gave a great panorama.
Rooms spotless and well fitted out, interesting bathroom arrangement (big window between bedroom and bathroom). Room on the whole was very pleasant although i'd say the a/c in our room took a while to get down to temp.
Hotel had a pool on the roof terrace (9th floor) which was really cold, ace after a day in the hue heat, could also get drinks here in the evening until it shut about 10.
Breakfast selection among the largest we seen in VN, staff friendly and welcoming and had a good bit of chat for us on arrival and departure.
Only spent a few nights in hue, but would find it hard to want much more from a hotel in the centre of the city.
Stayed August 2011, traveled as a couple
3. "Favorite hotel in Vietnam"
Reviewed September 5, 2011
I loved this hotel. Modern decor, nice pool area, and great location. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and like others have said, they have a good breakfast buffet. The breakfast was not great by American standards, however, after travelling around Vietnam i realized it was the best breakfast we had. They had a slightly better selection of Western food. We did have an issue with the AC, as others have mentioned. It really took a long time for the room to cool down. Also, they say they have 24 hour room service but when I called downstairs to see if I could just get some ice (to make an ice pack for my headache) at 10 p.m. they told me they were closed?? Still, overall we had a very good experience at the hotel and I'd definitely go back.
Stayed August 2011, traveled with friends
4. "Great hotel in the best location in Hue!"
Reviewed September 1, 2011
The rooms in this hotel are large (by Vietnam standards). The rooms are very clean and the view from the top floor of the hotel is just breath-taking! This hotel must have one of the best, most varied breakfasts in Hue, if not Vietnam. A great mixture of Asian and Western food. The hotel has a very small swimming pool, which is not actually outdoors but on the 7/8 floor with an open balcony which gives the feel it's outdoors but not in direct sunlight, so you won't get much of a sun tan. This said, it's a great area to relax.
Best thing about this hotel is it's location in Hue. The hotel sits in an area occupied by the busiest 2 streets in Hue for bars and restaurants. You will never be short of somewhere to eat or drink.
Room Tip: rooms are large, very comfortable and very clean.
Stayed August 2011, traveled with family
5. "Excellent hotel and friendly staff"
Reviewed August 23, 2011
I and my daughter stayed here 5 days and were very happy with our booking, the room is large and cosy, very nice view of the street, breakfast included and plentiful, dinners at the restaurant was superb, staff are excellent, very kind always smiling and called us by names, location is perfect just 5 minutes walk to the river and I loved watching locals practising Taichi in the morning, children carried on scooters to school. Will definitely stay here again. Had a lovely stay and found it very difficult to leave

I really liked this hotel ! The room was massive and newly decorated. The bathroom was big too and very clean. Location of the hotel is good, on a little road with lots of restaraunts. The staff were very polite and friendly. Breakfast choices are excellent- lots of fruit, pastries, juices, eggs, Vietnamese foods etc. The little swimming pool is nice too. I would definitely recommend this hotel

Focus Zone Focus Mix boosts your muscle and mental energy to help you stay energized and focused. 2,400 mg of fast-absorbing formula made from BCAAs, Glutamine, Arginine and electrolytes helps you maintain the constant focus you need when you need it most. Take this during competition to sustain your energy and focus.
What are amino acids?
Amino acids are simply the building blocks of all proteins. By ingesting protein in its simplest form, you save your body a step in the digestion process, absorbing it more quickly than a heavy protein bar or shake, realizing the benefits more quickly. For more about amino acids, see our Science section.
How do amino acids help me stay focused?
Amino acids promote focus by blocking tryptophan from producing excessive amounts of serotonin in the brain, which makes you feel tired and sleepy. By limiting the amount of serotonin in the brain, the effects of mental fatigue are reduced, thus helping you think more clearly and remain focused. If that isn't enough to convince you, then take it from the hundreds of professional athletes who rely on Amino Vital® products every week to help them stay focused and consistently performing their best.
How can something I drink improve my performance?
While it takes training, practice and experience to improve your skill level, Focus Zone helps you perform better by reducing fatigue, both physically and mentally, allowing you to deliver your best more often. The net result is a longer duration of peak performance, less downtime and fewer errors, resulting in a more consistent performance day in and day out.
Will I feel a rush when I drink Focus Zone?
No. Focus Zone provides energy in its purest form. Subsequently, there is no "crash" associated with drinking Focus Zone. What you will notice is your body continuing to perform at the peak of your ability and your mind able to remain focused over a longer period of time.
Is Focus Zone meant for professional athletes?
While Focus Zone is used by hundreds of professional athletes from runners and triathletes to body builders and golfers, many amateurs also use Focus Zone. Our customers tell us they enjoy the added benefits over typical sports drinks as well as its affordability, costing less per serving than your typical bottled water or sports/energy drink.
Are Amino Vital® products safe?
Amino Vital® products contain AJIPURE, the highest-quality pharmaceutical grade amino acids (between 99%-100% pure) available anywhere. Our parent company Ajinomoto was one of the first to make pharmaceutical-grade amino acids, and is currently a global leader in the research, production and sales of amino acids. AJIPURE amino acids are widely used in intravenous solutions, infant formulas, prescription medications and other specialty medical products.
Are Amino Vital® products approved sports supplements?
Yes, every production batch from each Amino vital® product is analyzed and certified by the BSCG (Banned Substance Control Group). The BSCG is an independent organization which assists responsible dietary supplement manufacturers who wish to ensure that their products do not contain dangerous banned substances.
Amino Vital® ships a sample of each batch to a state-of-the-art anti-doping research laboratory that has been designated by the BSCG. The laboratory analyzes the sample for over 160 substances that are banned by sports organizations such as the International Olympic Committee (IOC), the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA), the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), the National Football League (NFL), and many other professional and amateur sports leagues. A product that bears the BSCG seal lets the customer know that the product has received BSCG Certification and that no banned substances were found above detection limits. For more information on the BSCG, visit www.bscg.org
How to Use:
1. Open 1 stick pack and pour Focus Zone powder into 16-20oz water.
2. Shake well until powder dissolves and enjoy!
When to Use:
For best results drink Focus Zone continuously during exercise, training or competition. For longer-lasting or more strenuous workouts, take a second stick pack at the mid-point of your activity.

I got to use Amino-Vital for the first time today. I am 55 and play golf in the Texas summer heat. I cramp after a round even drinking lots of water or Gatorade. I had a bottle after I warmed up on the range, after the turn and half way through the final 9. I have never felt better after the round in years. No cramps in my legs. I am sold I am going to make this a regular part of my workout, my golf, and work where we can become very dehydrated. Cannot recommend this enough.

Safety-related equipment
Regardless of the reason, when fire strikes, you need to act quickly. Depending on the size of the vessel, having a sufficient number of fire extinguishers on board goes without saying, but they should be stored throughout the vessel and, above all, be readily accessible.
Owners usually have powder extinguishers on board, but CO2 extinguishers can also be useful. The latter are particularly well suited for fires in the electrical system, since they don't leave any residue whatsoever. Powder, on the other hand, can never be fully removed and may subsequently interfere with the functioning of electrical components. In the engine rooms, automatic fire extinguishing systems are a good investment!
In the pantry, you should also keep a fire blanket close at hand. This is most effective way to fight oil fires, for example. If a fire blanket isn't available, you can also use a cotton shirt, but never synthetic material.
Fire extinguishers and fire-extinguishing systems need to be checked frequently in line with local regulation and labelled with a new test seal. If that doesn't happen, and if the equipment doesn't function when needed, then some insurance companies might consider that to be contributory negligence and refuse coverage. In addition to fire extinguishers, all other safety-related equipment, such as life rafts, self-inflating life jackets, and flares, must be maintained in line with the manufacturer's recommendations and, where necessary, replaced or repaired.

In opening statements of the first public meeting to merge the Senate and House farm bills, lawmakers seemed to reiterate a common goal: compromise.
"Consensus has proven to be an elusive goal at times in Congress, but it is a word that underscores the work we do in the agriculture community every day," Rep. Frank Lucas, R-Okla., Chairman of the House Agriculture Committee and chair of the farm bill conference, said. "I hope we are keenly aware of our responsibility to put policy in place that is good for our farmers, ranchers, consumers, and those who have hit difficult times."
Similarly, Sen. Debbie Stabenow, Chairwoman of the Senate Agriculture Committee, applied a sense of urgency to the negotiations.
"There are 16 million men and women whose jobs rely on the strength of Agriculture. They are counting on us to work together in good faith and get this farm bill done. And I am confident we won't let them down," she said.
But the legislators also spent time outlining talking points that will likely become decisive battles later on in the negotiations. Topics included the crop insurance program, nutrition program reforms, and conservation compliance.
In addition, lawmakers made mention of dairy policy, Country of Origin Labeling, and an interstate commerce amendment from Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa – policy that Rep. Kurt Schrader, D-Ore., called a "poison pill" amendment.
The conference, almost two years in the making, comes at a pivotal time given that last year's final-hour extension of the 2008 farm bill has already reached its expiration date, and pressure from ag industry groups is growing.
Many of the groups Wednesday reiterated policy priorities in concert with the kick-off of the conference meeting, signaling support for the talks but keeping to an overall theme: finish the farm bill.
"With the legislation and process back in the hands of the Senate and House agriculture committee leaders and members, we are eager to do all we can to ensure the new farm bill is on the president's desk as soon as possible this year," American Farm Bureau President Bob Stallman said in a press statement. "It is time to get the harvest in on the new five-year farm bill."
National Farmers Union President Roger Johnson issued a similar statement, joining AFBF in urging legislators to maintain permanent law so as to ensure a new farm bill is enacted regularly.
Legislators, too, made the case for their chosen priorities, from assistance for livestock producers to support for specialty crop growers.
But the overarching theme, amidst all the discussion on what should or shouldn't be included in the final bill, was the shrinking timeline to move on a bill.
"It took us years to get here, but we are here," Lucas said. "It may take days and weeks, perhaps, to finish crafting what we'll call the 2013 Farm Bill in popular discussion at the coffee shops. But we can do it. We have to do it. We have a responsibility to do it … let's not take years to get it done."

I use 24 or 32 bits targa images in my app and I load each component of the image( R As an example ) in a GLubyte value. So I use the GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE as the type parameter of the function glTexImage2D(). It means that each component of the image is stored in an 8-bit unsigned integer value. I also use GL_RGBA or GL_RGB constants as the internalformal of this function.But wah tdoes happen if I use GL_R3G3B2 as the internalformat?In this case R, G and B are not an 8-bit unsigned integer value. So what does happen in this case?

Let's look at it from a practical real world example. You want to embed a quicktime movie and that triggers the quicktime plug-in in your browser. You know that the plug-in supports autoplay, etc., when used with embed. You want to use object, but still pass this information along to the plug-in. You do it with params inside of the object tag. It is the right thing to do, and works in browser with working object support.

Standing 4 foot high and 8 foot wide, we're not sure if the Behringer iNuke Boom is the world's largest iPhone/iPad/iPod dock, but we do know it's the loudest. The beast of a speaker system is capable of barking out over 10,000 Watts of power.
The dock, which will be available for one cent shy of $30,000, is to make its debut at CES in Las Vegas from 7 January 2012, and has been created by the audio company in order to help publicise its new Eurosound consumer electronics brand.
The new moniker will be attached to four separate product lines, comprised of over 50 new products. The Home tag will be for equipment designed to bring concert sounds to your living room, Live attached to amplification devices, Portable for mobile audio experiences, and Creation being the umbrella under which music making kit will sit.
The iNuke Boom, however, is part of the Behringer brand, and should you want one, you may well need to reinforce your flooring. The dock weighs a staggering 700 pounds.
Pocket-lint is going to be at CES 2012 for its duration, so we'll report on what the Behringer iNuke Boom sounds like when we're there. If we still have eardrums, that is.

Ultra rare 1970 UK Demo / Promo of the first Charisma Genesis single, Looking For Someone. Textured pink scroll labels with PROMOTIONAL COPY NOT FOR RESALE on both sides. According to popular belief, only 100 of these promos were ever pressed. It was never officially released as Charisma decided to go with 'The Knife' instead, so it only exists in this form. Furthermore, it was never released in any other country - so this is the only version in existence, worldwide. It was released with both a push out centre, and solid centre, and as you can see, this is the push-out version. The record is factory stamped in the run-out with the matrices G S + 1 + 1 on the A side, and G S + 2 +1 on the B side. The vinyl does have some scuffing on both sides, and I think VG+ is the fair and correct grading. The labels are really nice, with just a light sticker mark on the B side label - please see pics. The photos you see are ALWAYS of the item for sale, guaranteed. 100% money back no quibble guarantee, including your shipping cost if you're not satisfied it is as described. You have my word. I have bought too many sub-standard misrepresented items on here only for me to be out of pocket on return shipping due to no fault of my own. It's not right, so I won't do it. I am very proud of my 100% feedback, so any issues, let's work them out. PayPal only please. IMPORTANT - PLEASE IGNORE THE LISTED SHIPPING COSTS FOR THIS RECORD. Due to its high value, I must send it tracked and insured, so will let you know the shipping cost depending on your location. The amount I charge will be the exact amount the post office charges me - again, you have my word.

The 2016 Honda HR-V Hits Dealerships on June 29th
June 30 2015,
Blending SUV-capabilities with a powerful yet fuel-efficient engine, the Honda HR-V is the next best thing from Honda. It will look to make its mark in one of the fastest growing segments in Canada.
Available in four trim levels, the 2016 Honda HR-V starts at a touch above $20,000 while the fully-equipped EX-L Navi model that comes with leather seats, a navigation system, all-wheel-drive, a rear-view camera, Bluetooth, a sunroof, and a lot more, is priced at less than $30,000. Available with a standard six-speed manual, the HR-V can also be equipped with an automatic CVT transmission.
Front-wheel drive is standard while all-wheel drive is optional. Under the hood, buyers get a four-cylinder, 1.8-liter engine that delivers 141 horsepower and 127 lb-ft of torque. On the road, this engine proves to be powerful and reliable while also being quite fuel-efficient. Indeed, equipped with the CVT transmission, the average fuel consumption is 8.3 liters per 100 kilometers in the city and 6.7 liters per 100 kilometers on the highway. Even with all-wheel drive, the average fuel economy is stated at 8.1 liters per 100 kilometers.
Inside the HR-V, buyers get a cockpit that reminds us of the Honda Civic with perfect fit and finish throughout, as well as an impressive infotainment system that is as beautiful to look at as it is to use on a daily basis. You also get a ton of interior space and storage areas, and because the Honda HR-V is based on the subcompact Honda Fit, you also get Honda's exclusive Magic Seat system allowing for up to five seating configurations in the back enabling the owner to put basically anything back there. With all seats in place, cargo space is more than 600 liters, which is better than anything offered by the competition.
In terms of safety, the Honda HR-V is offered with Honda's well-known ACE body structure that dissipates the force of an impact away from the passengers, as well as standard stability and traction control, hill start assist, and brake assist.
Come in today and drive the brand-new 2016 Honda HR-V at Bruce Honda. Starting at $20,690, the HR-V gets a standard rear-view camera as well as heated seats, air conditioning, and Bluetooth. What's not to love?

Which NFL Veterans Are About to Lose Their Starting Jobs to Rookies?May 1, 2012
While the 2012 NFL Draft helped teams add youth to their rosters, it also helped them address situations where veterans may be underperforming or nearing the end of their careers.
And with the wild success the 2011 rookie class saw, it wouldn't be a surprise to see a few NFL veterans lose their starting jobs to rookies this season.
Make no mistake; many of these rookies will be brought along slowly in their systems as they get acclimated to the NFL—after all, it's a huge jump from college to pro, regardless of position or competition.
Some veterans—not all, but some—have been asking for it with subpar performance, while others are simply not as cut out for their roles as the players brought in through the draft.
But let's not forget, the veterans have a leg up in that they've already seen this level of competition, so it wouldn't be a shock to see many of the above-mentioned veterans keep their jobs. They should, however, be looking over their shoulder.
Watch the video above to get an idea of whose starting jobs might be in jeopardy if the chips fall a certain way.

text: Sorry for the N00b-ness, but I'm a d-link convert who just pulled in a WRT54G for $19 AR. Now I'd like to load up the works into the firmware. I'm confused by the number of alternative firmware revs and the lack of documentation. The features that I'm looking for are the Power boost that I heard Sveasoft can offer to 250mw and the portal options and bridge options. So I have read that all of these features are built into Alchemy 1.0, but I wanted to make sure that they weren't beta stuff that I would have to buy from Sveasoft. Then I was wondering what the exact name is for the firmware version that I need to use with a version 2 (hardware) router? and finally, are there any tricks that i need to know so that I don't brick the router. thanks

Ardahan University took the first step into being a worldwide university with its foundation by the help of 5765. law of the the Grand National Assembly of Turkey on 22 May 2008. It continues to develop and improve day by day on the track of science and knowledge, searching for information, learning, producing and sharing, aiming to solve not only the region's and country's problems, but also the international problems like a light.
Lets share this development and enlight yourself.
Message of the Rector
Knowledge is a very precious value which makes people and societies, who possess and give importance to it, superior to other people and societies.Therefore universities are the places in which the information is taught, but mostly produced. It is not a coincidence that during our country's historical process, generally major disasters happened in times when the society was highly far from science and art. Therefore, the Grand Leader Atatürk said ' The most factual guide in the world is science and art.' By this way, he showed a new perspective to the young Republic. I perceive Ardahan University as the biggest chance in the region so far.
Our university will institutionalize towards catching and going beyond the modern civilization level. I hope, Ardahan University, which will educate scientists who search for the solutions for the problems of not only our region and country, bu also all human being, will succeed in being a big university, and possessing international esteem. This aim will be our major presence reason.
However, we should always remember that; knowledge lives and improves only in the places in which it is protected and given importance. Paralelly, it glorify the people and society who knows its importance. I believe that the people in Ardahan will protect their university like a new-born baby.
Educating our students as fully qualified individuals to reshape the world of the future is one of our main aims. Because, qualified individual is our country's and humanbeing's most precious fortune. We devoted our capacity and energy to educate people who are full of human affection, who gives importance to the scientific references and in this way enlighten our country, region and world. With each academician, student and personnel who participates us, we will more develop and fulfill our ideal.
Prof. Dr. Ramazan KORKMAZ
The Rector of Ardahan University
The vision of Ardahan University is to educate well qualified individuals who are devoted to Atatürk's principles and reforms, not compromising from secularism and republic values, hardworking, using his acquirements and intelligence for the benefit of all human being, beneficial to the society, creative, thinking positive and representing his country with his self-created values all over the world.
Ardahan University's mission is to edudate well-qualified individuals who are competent in all areas with the education and research works which are based on international values, creative, and having responsibility for ethic and social values. Another mission is to create values for educating individuals who are highly self- confident and responsible, having the ability of representing, possessing ethic values and international competence, and who are prefered by business and educational world.

text: This sexy brunette wakes up in the comfort of one of Phoenix's finest resorts, and puts on a sexy black dress & heels. In a voyeur sort of view, she is caught walking and revealing the panty-free underside of her dress, and begins to rub herself. With so many people walking by, she goes back into her room and begins to masturbate, first with fingers then with a toy. She is one of those girls who really enjoys masturbating, and having orgasms, even when interrupted by the room service! One (or maybe more!) orgasms later, she undresses again, puts on a sexy pink nightie, and gives her perfect butt a nice lotion massage, then moving to her breasts. She tries something rather unique, taking her pink panties, and pushing them inside her, until they disappear! Slowly pulling them out, she smells and tastes them, and moves back to the living room. Her sexuality is heightened by anal sex, so she fingers both holes while on the computer desk, then finds herself two toys to double-penetrate herself doggy style. More orgasms... and then the Big Ten Toy, which she rides hard on the table to another orgasm! Speaking french to you, she gives the Big Ten a nice blowjob, and takes a shower while masturbating with a toy... to one last orgasm that almost makes her faint!
