Cincinnati picked again for the 2015 Long Haul Bombers Tour
OKLAHOMA CITY – The ASA Stadium Power Tour is set and ready to roll for the 2015 season as members of the ASA Long Haul Bombers gear up to showcase their titles of the best home run hitters in the world. Announced today by the Amateur Softball Association (ASA) of America/USA Softball, the ASA Long Haul Bombers will stage one-of-a-kind home run derbies at eight Major League Baseball (MLB) ballparks before battling it out for the Manufactures Cup and individual title in the finals.
"We're excited for another great season of the ASA Stadium Power Tour," said ASA/USA Softball Executive Director Craig Cress. "The ASA Long Haul Bombers put on a great show each time they step out at the MLB ballparks and demonstrate their world-class talent to fans at each stop. We can't wait to see how the season plays out as fans follow their journey to the Stadium Power Tour Finals."
The ASA Long Haul Bombers Stadium Power Tour highlights a collection of the world's greatest softball home run hitters. Four teams, representing Combat, DeMarini, Easton, Miken, of softball super stars stage one-of-a-kind home run derbies at MLB Stadiums across North America. Each slugger gets 15 swings and a home run is worth one point, except the last pitch, known as the money ball, worth two points and can be the tie-breaker. Six of the eight participants will qualify for the finals of the Stadium Power Tour, scheduled to take place on September 12 at Marlins Park, home of the Miami Marlins, in Miami, Fla.
Last year, the ASA Stadium Power Tour concluded with Team DeMarini sweeping the honors as Chris Larsen was named the world's greatest home run hitter for the second time in his career, crushing 12 out of the park. Team DeMarini also took home the coveted Manufactures Cup, totaling 23 for the evening. You can find the final results from the 2014 Stadium Power Tour Finals at ASAUSASoftball.com.
"The Stadium Power Tour is entering its 10th season and fans love seeing the massive home runs," said Team DeMarini's Chris Larsen (Vancouver, Wash.). "We're the best in the world at slugging, so get ready! Team DeMarini's goal this season is to keep the Manufactures Cup where it belongs, with DeMarini."

The rainout number is 981-5161 #1 for city fields and #2 for Gabes,
Gilman and Fielding
Rainout decisions are made by 2pm weekdays and 8am weekends- AND NO SOONER!
We make an effort to allow you to play and deciding at 2pm or 8am is based on field conditions at the time we make the call and anticipated weather for the rest of the day. However, we may make the call that the field is open and one hour later a massive rainstorm comes in. Please use common sense when you are on these fields and if it starts raining—stop playing even if we have made the call that the field is open. It's not worth destroying a rain soaked field for the rest of the season so you can get in your 1.5 hour game or practice on a rainy day
Fields are closed if the rainout number says they are closed OR there is a sign on the field OR the lights are off.
The Gilman artificials are never closed due to rain.
Rainout information will be available after 7:30am on game days.
Please call the following numbers for field conditions:
ACCYSL Rainout # is 510-433-9995
Catalfo/Fielding fields Rainout # is 510-981-5161 ext 2
El Cerrito fields Rainout # is 510- 414-1039

On July 25, an escort in Charleston, West Virginia, shot and killed Neal Falls, a man she met via a website and whom she claims was determined to kill her from the moment she answered the door. Police now believe the man may be linked to as many as six deaths in the last 14 months.
According to CBS 46, the unnamed woman opened the door and was allegedly attacked by Falls. The woman said, "I knew he was there to kill me. I could tell that he had already done something because he said that he was going to prison for a long and that's when I knew that he was going to kill me."
The escort struggled against Falls, who laid down his gun to fight off the escort's defensive attempts as he allegedly tried to strangle her. She said, "When he strangled me, he just wouldn't let me get any air and so I grabbed my rake and when he laid the gun down to get the rake out of my hands, I shot him. I just grabbed the gun and shot behind me," she said.
Based on what the escort says, police have come to believe this was not the first time Falls allegedly tried to kill someone. The woman confirmed this by saying, "You could tell he was saying the exact same thing, he had it down pat. He was saying, 'You're going to be quiet, I'm gonna call the orders.' He was saying everything, you could tell he was comfortable with what he was saying."
When Falls pulled up to meet the escort, he was driving a "Subaru from Oregon" in which there was a "kill kit made up of a shovel, knives, a bulletproof vest, bleach, trashbags, sledgehammers and axes." Because of these things, police are "actively trying to connect Falls to other unsolved murders across the country."
In particular, they think Falls may be connected to "six Ohio women found dead or reported missing in the past 14 months."

The materials such as crystals, pearl, beads, silver and gold are so beautiful, they inspire me to create sculptured earrings, colourful bracelets and pendants that glitter. There is plenty of attention to detail and co-ordination to the patterns and arrangement of each finished piece. Yet, the joy of it all is in wearing the jewellery."

Apple pushes out updates for QuickTime, iTunes
Nine of the flaws are present in QuickTime and are deemed "highly critical" by vulnerability tracking firm Secunia.
Most of the bugs are buffer overflow or memory corruption issues -- and they can be exploited when a user is tricked into watching a malicious movie file, which leads to a system crash or arbitrary code execution, according to an Apple advisory. Four of the nine QuickTime holes impact Windows Vista and XP machines, while the others affect Mac OS X platforms.
On the iTunes side, one of the bugs relates to a misleading warning screen that says unblocking iTunes Music Sharing doesn't affect firewall security when it actually does, according to another advisory. The other flaw is an integer overflow issue whereby a local user could gain unauthorized system privileges.
Apple advises users to upgrade to QuickTime 7.5.5 and iTunes 8.0.

Christmas is so close but every year it's the same frisson of surprise right about now: Christmas is just around the corner!
My family all moved away from the City so Christmas has a dimension that's new to me but familiar to many. Travel. Not only do I have to make all the usual preparations but I have to do them early so that I can get up to the country a few days before Christmas. Aaack! Where does the time go?
This year is a little different, however. Being on a strict budget with little room for necessities, let alone generous gifts, I have been dipping into my well of creativity to help make this a special Christmas for my loved ones.
This summer I started a variety of knitting projects to go under the tree. Fortunately for said budget the necessary yarn for these projects were already reposing in my stash. Each family member is receiving a knitted item lovingly made by me. The fun thing about knitting for someone else is that with each stitch I create I am thinking about the recipient. I think about how much fun I am having making the gift for them, how pretty or handsome the item is, how soft and plushy, the lovely yarn texture and its color, and how much they will enjoy wearing it.
The same holds true for the food items I make every year. It wouldn't be Christmas if I didn't make shortbread. The recipe was kindly given to me by Margaret Golbransen, my dear sister-in-law's delightful mom. The recipe is from Margaret's great-great-Aunt Violet in Scotland, and not only is it a symbol of the true delights of certain aspects of Scottish cuisine, but a most delicious, addictive cookie. Una makes it too every Christmas for our dad, and of course hers is so much better than mine, but nonetheless I don't believe I would be allowed in the door without bringing some carefully wrapped containers of these cookies.
For years my repertoire of Christmas goodies has shifted like the sands of time. One year I baked enormous braids of cinnamon bread, homemade chocolate truffles with various fruity ganache centers, candied or spiced nuts, peanut brittle, English toffee, miniature loaves of cranberry lemon bread, candied ginger and pear breads, cheddar-beer-bacon loafs, or my favorite, the syrup soaked Meyer lemon breads.
This time last year I did not make any of the food gifts I usually do. mUm was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes right before Thanksgiving, which came as quite a shock to us all. She was not supposed to have any sugars or carbohydrates of any kind and that is a challenge any day, let alone during the holidays. Naturally, I didn't want to seem unfeeling and dole out food gifts to everyone and leave her out, nor give something she couldn't or shouldn't have while she was struggling with complying with a new stringent food plan. Then, the unthinkable happened. Shortly after Thanksgiving her 2nd ever mammogram had an area of concern, and on Christmas Eve the doctor met with her to say she had breast cancer. Please note the tense of that verb, *had*. It took a *lot* of persuading on our part and of her friends to convince her to accept the treatment plan. We are all so grateful she did have the surgery and all subsequent tests (knock on wood) show she is cancer free. Santa gave us the greatest gift last year, and that is the future of many more Christmases with her. But until her surgery and followup exams and tests and this and that it was mid-March and no one felt very festive last Christmas. It was a sombering few months, sadly shared by far too many families. I feel like we were the lucky ones, and feel the joy and yet a touch of guilt for so many have lost loved ones in just the same way. Is it selfish to feel so happy? I hope not.
So this year, we are feeling terrifically joyous to be together. mUm says that if she has us all under one roof we could walk in with nothing but lint in our pockets and she would be delirious with the joy of the season. But I want to arrive with a few goodies in tow, not necessarily the sugar/carb fest of years past but fun nonetheless. This year we celebrate!
But what to bring? The element of travel makes these gifts more complex. there is the issue of freshness, breakage and mostly the grocery budget. I have been squirelling away pantry items in anticipation of this budget shortfall. I found a source for inexpensive yet organic sweet cream butter. I found 2-for-1 sales on my favorite brand of flour and sugar. My new contacts from blogging have gifted me with a lovely stash of chocolate and a variety of kitchen swag that I will regift. I am delighted to say that I will be making shortbread this year and perhaps some truffles too. I know this will please my family, and I will feel like I have contributed to the spirit of Christmas by having a few packages to place under the Christmas tree.
It isn't the Christmas I wanted to give them but this holiday isn't about the gifts. It's about that we are all together, healthy, and it's about the love. I have plenty of that in abundance to share.

Without her
Without her
the sand sifting ever so deftly between her toes
the wind blowing her hair askew in perfect bliss
the waves kissing her perfect feet
as so ever slightly
the tide ebbs and flows
while clouds pass lazily overhead
whispering their greetings
as each one passes by
Ah . . . how long I have watched her in secret
tracing her footsteps in the sand with my mind
scouring the beach for just a glimpse
of the one
who lights my mind . . .
awakes my soul
and fills the emptiness of the day
into dreamlike hopes for a future that may
or may not
And the missing part in my heart
wonders why
she can walk by so perfectly
so close . . . that we could almost touch
and yet
without even a nod of recognition
not seeing . . .
not feeling . . .
what to me
is so, so obvious
Yes . . .
The wind blows across the ocean caps
as sand drifts slowly over her vanishing footprints
covering the fading day and my dreams
while the sun slowly begins its radiant disappearance
down from its position – once so high
disappearing softly into the sea
. . . and with it
I pass another day
into my own personal oblivion
There – by the sea
without her

2016 Lighthouse Award Recipient: University Hills Optimist Club
RecognizeGood is proud to announce the latest Lighthouse Award honoree, University Hills Optimist Club! This club was chartered in 1966 and was invited to start a youth baseball league soon after. Ever since, the club has been providing affordable youth sports leagues on a 100%-volunteer basis. University Hills Optimists (UHO) actually launched Austin's first-ever youth soccer league! Above 50 volunteers build and maintain the club's facilities, as well as govern the leagues. In some years the club collectively volunteered upwards of 50,000 hours when all was said and done, although land issues arising with the city over the past few years have stalled some of the leagues the club has been able to offer. Despite those hardships, the club has raised over $300,000 to support area youth sports in the past seven years alone, and maintains its Little Miss Kickball league that first launched in 1974. The dedication of the University Hills Optimists over the past 50 years is truly inspiring, and RecognizeGood is so honored to show its appreciation with this Lighthouse Award.
Club president Kelli Saldana and founding Little Miss Kickball President Ed Reznicek accepted the award on behalf of their group in a special presentation at the Reznicek Field clubhouse. John Bosch, Jr., principal at award sponsor iRex Group and parent company TyRex Group, presented the club with an award plaque, two tickets to the 2016 Ethics in Business & Community Award luncheon, along with a donation to PET-Austin in the club's name. A PET (Personal Energy Transportation) vehicle was also been donated in the club's name. This recognition represented a sincere "Thank you!" from the Central Texas community for decades of selfless service from University Hills Optimist Club.
The RecognizeGood Lighthouse Award recognizes the selfless community efforts and philanthropy of Austin-area service clubs through length, magnitude or impact of service – by highlighting "special" organizations and telling their stories, we believe that others will be inspired to make our community a better place. Award nominees may be sent to firstname.lastname@example.com, and are voted on by a selection committee according to the following criteria:
- Length of Service
- Magnitude of Service
- Special One-Time Event
This was the tenth RecognizeGood Lighthouse Award presented to an Austin-area service organization. Previous award winners include Sertoma of Round Rock, Rotary Club of Lakeway / Lake Travis, Austin Downtown Founders Lions Club, Town & Country Optimists Club, Northwest Austin Kiwanis, Round Rock Kiwanis, Junior League of Austin, The Exchange Club of Austin, and Rotary Club of West Austin. Thanks to Lighthouse program sponsor iRex Group, Ltd. for their generosity and active support of this program!

Let's talk about fall. In case you didn't know it, it is my favorite season of all. I love the color of nature, I love warm coats, scarfs, hats. I love pumpkin, apple picking, hay rides, coffee, hot chocolate. I just love all of it. In fact, it's the season when I feel the most alive!
Last night, I was robbed of my fall season. We had our first frost last night, and our house was absolutely freezing. I refuse to skip to winter this early on. The thought of it makes me want to cry. or scream, or both. Okay, I probably wont do any of those things, but I will be pretty bummed.
The oil man came out to deliver oil for our house. Due to the cost of oil, we have very quickly adopted the New England ways in regards to the heat. Normally, what I have heard from all of my friends around here, is that they refuse to the heat on as close to November as possible. In theory, that's all great and dandy, but when I had to sleep in a sweatshirt and socks, and we had a little boy with freezing limbs crawl into bed with us.....Bran and I looked at each other in unison and said let's turn this sucker on. Life is short, I want to be comfortable.
Daily Nuggets:
- Brandon got his official graduation approval. (Happy Dance!). He's looking at his options for a masters.
- The company I worked for just purchased another property in MA. A few us were asked to volunteer (you read that right, asked to volunteer!) with the process of completing the acquisition paperwork for this property of 96 units. Normally a project like this is completed in a 2-3 month period with full time staff. We were given two weeks! After many hours of overtime, we completed the project yesterday. I'm so relieved! I can go back to forgetting normal things...and not EVERYTHING!
- I can go back to taking care of my kids, who have been looking pretty disheveled lately. And let's not even talk about the house work and laundry. Yikes!!! This is where I might cry...and scream. LOL.
- Oh, and just a heads up....Issy is back at Girl Scouts and they are doing their fall fundraiser for their troop. At Daycare Jacksons class is also doing a fundraiser for playground equipment. You might be getting some emails from me in the very near future.
- Weight watchers...what's that? Actually...I said I would update you and as embarrassed as I am here is the cold hard reality. Over the last two- weeks, I have lost...and gained again, then lost....right now, I am practically back at my start weight. I have been pretty stressed lately over work, and have been eating a lot crap. Still....I feel like when I say that I was "stressed", it's an excuse for not having more control. And I get pretty pissed at myself. I don't know if this will make any sense, but I have come to conclusion that the only thing I CAN DO about it, is start over.... right now! This moment. Which is what I am doing... Beating myself about it, will not change the past. As much as I hate this, I am accountable to someone other than myself, so I'll be back for an update.
I hope your fall days are bright, happy and full of color!

Ashley Graham knows a thing or two about bras and boobs.
For one, the "size sexy" model is the mastermind behind some of Addition Elle's most seductive and supportive bras, so she understands how a woman with a big bust should be feeling and looking in a bra.
And two, she's the hottest supermodel of the moment, meaning she takes part in a lot of fittings, trying on hundreds of different looks and picking up some valuable fashion advice along the way.
So during the press tour for her first ever book, A New Model in New York City, the 29-year-old, wearing a sheer black August Getty Atelier body con dress with a corset belt and strapless bodysuit, decided she'd let us in on one of her little bra secrets. Particularly, one about the collectively hated strapless bra.
"Tip for wearing a strapless bra- go down a size only in the band. Keeps the girls lifted without suffocating them," Graham wrote to her 4.1 million followers.
Hallelujah! A hack we can get behind! Tighter band, tighter fit.
So long to the days of constantly trying to yank up your
fabric prison for your chest bra when you're wearing a cute dress at work.
And this isn't the first time Ms. Graham blessed us with fashionable and life-saving style hacks. One time, the model gave us her top five tips for finding the perfect pair of jeans. And it was beyond helpful.
"Shopping for denim is probably one of the worst nightmares any girl can go through," Ashley told Vogue (to which we agree).
From telling us that it's all about the light in the fitting room to stressing that high-rise denim is always the way to go, Ashley had our back then, and she's continued to have our back (or should we say boobs) now with this genius and simple strapless bra hack.

After the original fixture ended 2-0 but with lights at UWC letting the teams down with 7 to go it was a replay and in despite of Bimse, Dubsky, Lasse and US out of action, Vikings had a strong 11 and started dictating the game from the start. Tommie playing superbly as stand in centre back came close of an Domino corner, Kejser Karl should have scored from Jesper cross, but instead it was a brilliant individual move from Jesper that saw the opener on around the 25th minute after hitting the ball from the edge of the box via the post. After this it was 75% possession from Vikings for the rest of the first half with Casuals showing a bit of life on counter attacks. 1-0 half time and Viking looking confident. Early second half Leslie me off with his injury not 100% and on came Rick in his last performance before heading back to study in Holland. Thank for helping out and hope to see you back Rick. While the team was settling in - Panda, playing left fullback carried the ball forward and with no easy pass he decided to have a go and from 30m Panda hit TOP corner and 2-0 Vikings. Domino also wanted part of the action and From 25m out he hit a sweet freekick, before Jonas completed a compilation of amazing goalscorer after combining with Laurenborg down the left. In the end Vikings took the 3 points we felt we deserved 6 weeks back. CHampions SCC next week and a Plate final in 3 weeks left for what has been a good season for the vikings ! Thanks to Casuals and refs for a good game ! MJ
With the humble scribe brushing up on his Churchill - oooooh yes - it was down to the inarticulate gaffer to write his first and last report of the season. Imaginatively dubbed #thereplay, it wasn't really. It didn't take place at the same venue or even at the same time. Despite it being in every national governing body's policies and rules that a replay should take place at the same venue. Apparently it's not in the Cosmoleague rules. Weird. The shambles that took place in rearranging the game hardly fitted in with the so-called spirit of the league. Especially when verbal sticks and stones are thrown in public group chats. Which is a shame when there are so many other great teams in this league who conduct themselves brilliantly and really do fly the Cosmoleague flag. Back to the game, the difference was Jonas today. Class lad on and off the pitch, that Casuals education he got last year really coming to the fore. Without him playing this game had a boring 0-0 written all over it. He's that much better than the rest. For Casuals, glad to see the back of the season. Although sad to say bye to Harry after 4 seasons and Jake after 2 seasons. Start a fresh next season.

The following taxonomic description of R. ferrugineus was provided by Booth et al. (1990)."Ferrugineous to black, legs paler, elytra shining or dull, slightly pubescent, black spots on pronotum extremely variable. Antennal insertions subbasal, scrobes deep, broad and widely opened ventrally, scape longer than funicle and club combined, equal to half length of rostrum, with funicular segments thick, conical, club large, broadly triangular, usually ferrugineous with 8 to 15 setae on inner side of spongy area. Rostrum in males almost four fifths length of pronotum. In females longer, slender, more cyclindrical; straight in profile, broad at base, apex not grooved, with dense, erect setae, at least subapically in males only, but not reaching scrobes, dorsal surface variously sculptured, ventrally very finely punctured, ventral space between antennal scrobes strongly narrowing posteriorly, gular suture with elongate-oval shape before narrowing to base. Submentum truncately concave with narrowly elongate, median depression, extending throughout its length. Mandibles tridentate distally, all teeth sharply pointed, apical and subapical teeth widely separated. Frons narrower than rostrum at base. Pronotum abruptly constricted anterolateraly, posterior margin broadly rounded. Scutellum one-quarter to one fifth elytral length, somewhat pointed posteriorly. Elytra smooth or with slight velvety pubescence, punctures along outer edges, with five deep striae and traces of four laterally. Procoxae strongly globose, widely separated, mesocoxae covered with soft, reddish-brown setae, pro- and mesofemora not strongly curved ventrally, with setae on ventral side of profemora in males only, tarsi pseudotetramerous, first segment twice as long as second, third with broad, median patch and lateral row of reddish-brown setae, fifth segment as long as first four combined, with nine to twelve setae ventrally. First abdominal sternite as long as third and fourth combined, but much shorter than second, sparsely punctures medially, strongly punctures laterally, fifth segment strongly punctured dorsolaterally, pygidium sparsely and minutely punctured posteriorly and dorsolaterally."Eggs are creamy white, oblong and shiny. The average size of an egg is 2.62 mm long and 1.12 mm wide (Menon and Pandalai, 1960). Eggs hatch in 3 days and increase in size before hatching (Reginald, 1973). The brown mouth parts of the larvae can be seen through the shell before eclosion.The larvae can grow up to 35 mm long and can be recognised by the brown head and white body. The body is composed of 13 segments. Mouthparts are well developed and strongly chitinized. The average length of fully grown larvae is 50 mm and the mean width is 20 mm in the middle.When about to pupate, larvae construct an oval-shaped cocoon of fibre (Menon and Pandalai, 1960). The pupal case can range in length from 50-95 mm and in width from 25-40 mm. The prepupal stage lasts for about 3 days and the pupal period varies from 12-20 days. Pupae are first cream coloured but later turn brown. The surface is shiny, but greatly furrowed and reticulated. The average length of pupae is 35 mm and the average width is 15 mm.Adult weevils are reddish brown, about 35 mm long and 10 mm wide and are characterized by a long curved rostrum (snout). Dark spots are visible on the upper side of the middle part of the body. The head and rostrum comprise about one-third of the total length. In the male, the dorsal apical half of the snout is covered by a patch of short brownish hairs, the snout is bare in the female, more slender, curved and a little longer than the male (Menon and Pandalai, 1960).
Sacchetti et al. (2006) provides a description of the different stages of development of the weevil and a simplified key for the identification of R. ferrugineus and R. palmarum.
According to Booth et al. (1990) R. ferrugineus occurs from Pakistan eastwards to Taiwan and the Philippines. It is also found in Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. A specimen of R. ferrugineus was captured in a trap in Palestine (Nasser Al-Jachoub, Palestinian National Agricultural Research Center, Jericho, Palestine, personal communication, 1999).Flach (1983) reported that R. ferrugineus occurs together with R. vulneratus in the Philippines, but it is the exclusive species in India and Sri Lanka. Hartley (1977) reported the occurrence of Rhynchophorus in African oil palms but did not indicate the species.
A record of R. ferrugineus in Queensland, Australia (CABI/EPPO, 2010; EPPO, 2014) published in previous versions of the Compendium in invalid. A specimen in the Australian National Insect Collection housed by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation is recorded as being R. ferrugineus (ALA, 2016). This specimen, which was collected in Queensland, has since been reassessed and has been found to be a closely related species, R. bilineatus (Pullen et al., 2014).
Records of R. ferrugineus from Indonesia, Sabah and Sarawak (Malaysia), Singapore and Papua New Guinea published in previous versions of the Compendium are now thought likely to be of R. vulneratus or R. bilineatus (CABI/EPPO, 2016).
There is no evidence that records from Samoa, Solomon Islands and Vanuatu (EPPO, 2014) published in previous versions of the Compendium are of R. ferrugineus (CABI/EPPO, 2016).
The distribution in this summary table is based on all the information available. When several references are cited, they may give conflicting information on the status. Further details may be available for individual references in the Distribution Table Details section which can be selected by going to Generate Report.
The biological aspects of R. ferrugineus have recently been studied by Justin et al. (2008), Abe et al. (2009), Prabhu et al. (2009), Salama et al. (2009) and Wang et al. (2009).
Infestations of red palm weevil have a tremendous impact, not only on the economic produce of the palm (dates) but also on society. In the Gulf region, date palm is closely associated with the culture, religion and the life of the people. Approximately 30% of the world's date production comes from the Gulf region of the Middle-East. Recent statistics shows that red palm weevil infestation may cause severe economic losses ranging between 1 and 5%, accounting for 5.18 to 25.92 million USD, respectively, with indirect losses increasing this figure several fold. The estimated cost saving of the curative treatment of palms in the early stage of attack is US $20.73 to 103.66 million for 1 and 5% infestation levels, respectively (El-Sabea et al., 2009). Menon and Pandalai (1960) suggested that R. ferrugineus is a serious pest of coconut palms in India and Sri Lanka. Ganapathy et al. (1992) observed R. ferrugineus damage in 34% of coconut groves in Cochin, India. Dhileepan (1991) reported that the weevil is a major pest of oil palms in Kerala. Flach (1983) suggested that R. ferrugineus and R. vulneratus are major pests of the sago palm in Sarawak. A relatively recent record of R. ferrugineus in India as a pest on oil palm (Misra, 1998) poses serious implications to some countries in South-East Asia (e.g. Malaysia, Indonesia) where oil palm is a major economic crop. In most European countries, the target of red palm weevil infestation is mainly the ornamental palms ruining the aesthetic beauty of parks and roads. Overall, red palm weevil damage to any type of palm accounts for losses of millions of dollars because the pest feeds on the trunk.
Bokhari and Abuzuhira (1992) developed diagnostic tests for the weevil-infested date palm trees in Saudi Arabia. In such palms, the rate of transpiration increased and diffusive resistance and water potential were reduced. All three factors could be monitored to detect infestation by R. ferrugineus. A diagnostic protocol for R. ferrugineus is given in OEPP/EPPO (2007).
Sacchetti et al. (2006) provides a simplified key for the identification of the two palm weevils R. ferrugineus and R. palmarum.
Integrated Pest Management Programmes
Integrated pest management for R. ferrugineus has been developed and tested in coconut palms in India (Kurian et al., 1976; Sathiamma et al., 1982, Abraham et al., 1989). Included in the IPM programme were cultural measures such as plant and field sanitation; physical methods by preventing entry of weevils through cut ends of petioles and wounds; and use of attractants and other chemicals (including filling of leaf axils with gamma BHC and sand as a preventive measure). Abraham et al. (1989) found the IPM approach very effective in reducing the number of infested palms in Kerala, India. Abraham et al. (1998) suggested that the major components of the IPM strategy for R. ferrugineus are surveillance, trapping the weevil using pheromones lures, detecting infestation by examination of palms, eliminating hidden breeding sites, clearing abandoned gardens, maintaining crop and field sanitation, using preventive chemical treatments, curative chemical control, implementing quarantine measures, training and education. In the Al Qatif region of Saudi Arabia, Vidyasagar et al. (2000a) successfully developed an IPM programme which, in addition to mass pheromone trapping, included a survey of all the cultivated gardens, systematic checking of all palms for infestation, periodic soaking of palms, and mass removal of neglected farms. A review of control strategies and IPM for the weevil were also presented by various other authors (Ramachandran, 1998; Nair et al., 1998; Murphy and Brisco, 1999). Faleiro (2006) has reviewed the issues and management of R. ferrugineus in coconut and date palm over the past 100 years.Cultural and Sanitary Methods
These include prompt destruction of infested plant material (Kurian and Mathen, 1971) and prophylactic treatment of cut wounds (Pillai, 1987). Abraham (1971) suggested that leaves be cut at or beyond the region where leaflets emerge at the base to prevent entry by the weevil into the stem. Azam and Razvi (2001) found that deep cutting to completely remove the growing point of off-shoots (unwanted growths from the trunk), then treating the cut surface with an insecticide such as formothion or dimethoate and covering it with mud reduced the level of infestation to less than 4% compared to 20% for an untreated control (cut at the trunk surface).Biological Control
Parasitoids and predators
There is not much information on the advocation of the classical approach for the use of biological control agents against R. ferrugineus. However, Reginald (1973) reported a fortuitous occurrence when Platymerus laevicollis was imported into Sri Lanka from Western Samoa as a possible predator on Oryctes rhinoceros and was found to prefer R. ferrugineus. There have also been studies to evaluate the potential of predators and parasites; Abraham and Kurian (1973) reported that Chelisoches morio nymphs consumed 5.3 weevil eggs and 4.2 weevil larvae per day whereas C. morio adults consumed 8.5 weevil eggs and 6.7 weevil larvae per day. In addition, they provided some information on the biology of this predator in the laboratory and field.
Entomopathogenic nematodesAbbas and Hononik (1999) found that Steinernema riobrave, S. carpocapsae and Heterorhabditis sp. were pathogenic to both larval and adult stages of R. ferrugineus in the laboratory. They also reported that propagation of the nematodes was possible in the adult but rare in the larvae. Laboratory studies conducted by Banu et al. (1998) showed that the larva of R. ferrugineus was host to the naturally-occurring entomopathogenic nematode Heterorhabditis indicus in Kerala, India. Salama and Abd-Elgawad (2001) baited using the greater wax moth larvae and obtained five strains of heterorhabditid nematodes, which were more virulent on R. ferrugineus than the other entomophilic nematode species in culture. However, only two of the strains survived a 24-h exposure period in palm-infested tree tissue. Hanounik (1998) reported that the application of genetically enhanced strains of Steinernema and Heterorhabditis to the larvae of R. ferrugineus resulted in 95-100% mortality in the laboratory and 50% mortality in the field. El Bishry et al. (2000) studied the impact of date palm tissues infested with R. ferrugineus on five entomopathogenic nematode strains in the laboratory. Results showed that juveniles of all strains were killed within 24 h when placed on infested tissues. The washings of these tissues also had a detrimental effect on the nematodes. The dispersal and host finding ability of three of the strains was negatively affected in palm tissues after washing and sterilization. For further information on the use of entomopathogenic nematodes against R. ferrugineus, see Monzer and Al-Elimi (2002), Saleh and Alheji (2003), Saleh et al. (2004), Llácer et al. (2009), Dembilio et al. (2010, 2011), Jacas et al. (2011), Tapia et al. (2011) and Triggiani and Tarasco (2011).
Other entomopathogensDangar (1997) studied the potency of a free-living unidentified yeast isolated from the haemolymph of R. ferrugineus as a biocontrol agent. The LD50 and LT50 values for larvae were calculated to be 8,000,000 yeasts/insect and 4 days, respectively.Other Control Measures
Botanical pesticides
Laboratory tests in India showed that the oil derivative from garlic and its synthetic form diallyl disulphide were toxic to the weevil (Murthy and Amonkar, 1974).
Pheromones and other behavioural chemicals
Pheromones are increasingly being used as a management tool against R. ferrugineus. Detailed protocols for pheromone-based mass trapping of the weevil are provided by Hallett et al. (1999). Faleiro et al. (1999) evaluated pheromone lures for the weevil in date plantations in Saudi Arabia and found that high release lures (Ferrolure and Ferrolure+) obtained from Chem Tica Natural, Costa Rica, attracted twice as many weevils as low release formulations. These pheromone lures were equally effective in attracting the pest and were on a par with Agrisense lures from the UK. Vidyasagar et al. (2000b) measured the impact of using a pheromone-based mass trapping system as a component of IPM of the weevil in Saudi Arabia using aggregation pheromone, ferrugineol, 4-methyl-5-nonanol (Ferrolure) and/or 4-methyl-5-nonanol + 4-methyl-5-nonanone (9:1) (Ferrolure+). Adult weevil populations were reduced from 4.12 weevils per trap per week in 1994 to 2.02 weevils per trap per week in 1997 when this system was used and there was a significant reduction in the level of infestation of date palms by the weevil during this period. In terms of population dynamics, peak adult populations were trapped immediately after the winter season during April and May and a smaller peak was observed during October and November just before the onset of winter. There was a drop in captures of weevils at the onset of winter. El Garhy (1996) reported thresholds temperatures for weevil activity in the range of 12-14°C, with more adults captured in summer than in winter and twice as many females captured as males, irrespective of season. Faleiro et al. (1999) compared Ferrolure and Ferrolure+ and reported that the longevity of the lures was lower in summer than in winter. The longevity of both was greater under shade and when traps were exposed to sunlight; Ferrolure+ lasted longer than Ferrolure. Gunawardena et al. (1998) identified host attractants for the weevil from freshly cut coconut bark and found that a 1:1 mixture of gamma nonanoic lactone 1 and 4-hydroxy-3- methoxystyrene 2 were responsible. Perez et al. (1996) reported that there were no apparent differences between the pheromones of R. ferrugineus and R. vulneratus.Sterile Backcrosses /Sterile Insect Technique /ChemosterilizationRamachandran (1991) reported the effects of gamma radiation on R. ferrugineus whereby production of viable eggs decreased with increasing radiation dose, although there was no apparent effect on the F2 generation. Rahalker et al. (1973) reported that treatment of 1-2-day-old males of the weevil at a dose of 1.5 krad (15 Gy) resulted in 90% sterility with no adverse effect on survival. Treatment of higher doses increased sterility but reduced survival. A ratio of ten treated males to one normal one was needed for appreciable suppression of progeny production. Using chemosterilants Rahalkar et al. (1975) reported that treatment of male weevils with metepa or hempa did not result in a satisfactory level of sterility without adversely affecting their survival. However, metepa was more toxic than hempa.Chemical Control
As damage symptoms by R. ferrugineus are difficult to detect during the early stages of infestations, emphasis is placed generally on preventive aspects. However, this is not always possible. The common and practical curative measure is through the use of insecticides. The use of the latter tends to be the major mode of control advocated as seen from the survey of literature. Preventive and curative measures include: trunk injection with systemic insecticides carried out during the early stages of infestations (Rao et al., 1973; Anon., 1976), recently, trunk injection using pirimiphos ethyl also gave good control (El Ezaby, 1997); treatment of wounds with repellents and filling leaf axils with insecticide dusts such as BHC mixed with sand (Mathen and Kurian, 1966; Abraham, 1971); and drenching of the crown of infested trees with insecticides (Kurian and Mathen, 1971). Barranco et al. (1998) recorded the percentage mortality of R. ferrugineus larvae treated with different rates of fipronil and azadirachtin (neem). Hernandez-Marante et al. (2003) reported highest mortality of R. ferrugineus with a combination of trunk injections and sprays with the same insecticide, with carbaryl, fipronil and imidacloprid providing highest efficacy against the pest.

Chloe NarcisseGet best price at Amazon.co.uk
Chloe Narcisse
I've given this a high standing, although I've ticked I would not repurchase. This can be really a magnificent cologne - a hot floral using some cynicism. Then you'll most likely enjoy Chloe Narcisse in the event you want the colognes down the page.
Red Door
Chloe Narcisse definitely does not smell like these colognes, but they're all from the same scent family. They're all bright, sharp, hot florals that never dry down to creamy foundation or a powdery.
Longevity is fantastic. One spray will continue all day long. Despite being not weak, this does not overwhelm the individuals around you, unlike some of the colognes recorded above. It's also dirt cheap. You can get this on unique in Australia for no more than $15 around Christmas and Mothers Day. Warm weather's just around the corner, and that i could use another summer cologne.
