Blue-collar champion and former Senator Rick Santorum is quitting the presidential race — and he's endorsing the candidate who would have inundated the country with cheap foreign0workers, Sen. Marco Rubio, who was the leading GOP champion for the 2013 amnesty-and-cheap-labor bill.
Thanks for standing with me all of these years.
Your steadfast support and commitment to fighting important conservative battles has meant so much to Karen and me.
As you may have heard, I announced tonight that I will be ending my Presidential campaign. While the results were not what we had hoped, the experience of running for President was tremendously gratifying and something I won't soon forget.
And as Karen and I discussed leaving the Presidential race, we also talked about who we should support now that I am stepping aside.
There are many qualified, conservative candidates in the race for the White House.
But when it comes to the issues that we care about the most – restoring the American dream for hardworking families, standing up for the rights of the unborn, protecting our nation's security, and fighting for international religious freedom – we believe Marco Rubio's position are right on, and he has earned our endorsement.
We have taken a long, close look at all of the candidates. Running for President provides you with a unique look into the candidates' positions and temperament.
Marco Rubio is the right Republican to lead our party and our country.
His policies will revive our manufacturing sector, help our families thrive and defeat ISIS.
It is time to coalesce around the strongest candidate who will stand up for conservative values, be a statesman on the world stage, and has the ability to win a general election.
That is Marco Rubio.
Thank you and God Bless America.
Santorum won the 2012 Iowa caucus, but came in second-from-last in the 2016 caucus, with 1 percent of the vote. He lost badly, in part, because Donald Trump stole his pro-American/anti-immigration platform.
NumbersUSA, a pro-American immigration-reform group, had awarded Santorum an A rating. Rubio, in contrast, gets a D rating.
Santorum's chief financial backer was Foster Friess, a Wall Street stock-picker and supporter of greater immigration.

A videogame blogger from Sweeden (!!) shares his impressions from E3. Here's the untranslated website. And here's the Google Translation of the article:
What I really liked about Kinect? Well, that software is surprisingly good. And hardware is unexpectedly poor. Games Kinect Adventures, type five different mini-games. Rafting was, as expected, very funny. Can really see it compete with Wii Sports. Obstacle course, I was also pretty fun with.
But. The hardware, as I said. Microsoft promised that the delay (in reality between the motion and the motion on the screen) from last year were were virtually eliminated. I do not even feel any difference. There is still a significant gap. And although Kinect to be so damn advanced so it works in principle as an EyeToy - if you try on more advanced movements, like holding hands behind their backs, the avatar may snatch. Hugely embarrassing, looks terribly buggy out.
22:31: hit by lots of strange things. When would jump over and duck under the barrier so I got it not work at all. Avatar weird shit did half hope, and floated up into the air, when I tried to duck, for example. Many of my pallets hope it does not replicate at all, but still stood motionless, but the barrier in the face.
This steady trickle of bad news and revelations will prove devastating for Microsoft. Internet memes spread at a lightning pace; here we are, only days after E3, and look at what has happened. November is shaping up to be a nightmare. This machine is dead in the water, and I say good riddance to bad rubbish.

Hi, I'm Jenny.
Below you can read some things about me and learn about part of my story and how that might relate to you and your story...
Here some good-to-know things, so we're on the same page:
I'm a Christian hippie with a soft spot for lemon water and kind people. My head shots are not high-end studio photographs. If I post video, it will more than likely be shot from my phone and I probably won't be wearing makeup. I don't have a team of people working for me, so if you contact me, I'm the one who replies. Quality matters to me. Over-delivering value is signature to my business. If this space ever becomes pretentious or overly airbrushed and commercialized, I've taken a wrong turn. There's plenty of that already out there and it's just not who I am. So, now that we have that out of the way....
I know how uncertain it can feel when you're stuck between believing in yourself and paying the bills... knowing you have something important to put into the world but feeling unsure of what it is, or starting that business but not getting much traction. I've been there. I lingered in a job I didn't love because I had bills to pay (and lots of excuses to avoid going after my dreams). It's easy to feel stuck.
Wake up call.
On September 27, 2008, I received a phone call that changed my life. On that day, my 12-year-old son went to be with Jesus. It was a profoundly sorrowful time for me. In the days and weeks after I lost Zarse, people shared stories about his passion, kindness and inspiring nature. People never needed to guess about who Zarse was or what he dreamed of doing; He lived with so much passion, it was plain to see. Zarse's light was bright and clear. As I reflected on how he impacted people in the twelve years he was with us, I thought, what if we all lived like that? What if we all lived with such a courage to declare our dreams and go after them with all our hearts? As I moved along my grief journey, I did some soul searching about what really mattered to me and what I wanted to do with my time on this earth.
It was time to stop hiding behind a job I hated.
My other two children and I traded our 4-bedroom suburban house for a 600-square-foot studio loft in a hippie village. We reduced our "stuff" load and made room in our lives for more love, creativity and joy. We made changes to create a nurturing, intentional environment in our family and our living space; This is an ongoing work in progress.
My children left public school and I stepped back from a career as the Marketing and Creative Director of a financially lucrative but soul-draining business. I embraced a career that aligned with my values and spoke to my heart. I was going to be a life coach. But the thing was, while I loved coaching, I found myself also fascinated with branding, marketing and what it takes to run a successful purpose-driven business.
I set out to find myself a coach. What an eye opener!
I did a great deal of research as I considered the business I wanted to run. I became a Registered Profiting From Your Passions Coach and I went back to college and completed my degree. Believing in the potential of coaching, I set out to hire myself a coach. What an eye opener! In one consultation, a coach offered to sell me social media followers. Um, no. I paid a hefty price for another coach to do basically nothing to help me with gaining clarity, {which was why I hired her}. I also did a consultation with a supposed marketing specialist for coaches, only to have a basic question answered with "I don't know." The frustration was building.
I realized this was my thing.
While I was still in this seeking phase, a friend told me about spending $10,000 for a program that was supposed to teach her to attract coaching clients. A big-name coach ran the show and she was quite good at selling her "high-end" program.
The problem was, my friend paid a lot but benefited little. She felt frustrated and sorry she'd spent retirement money on something that wasn't getting her clients. As we talked, she told me about some of the things she was unclear on. I offered explanations and tried to help her get unstuck. By the time the conversation wrapped up, she was laughing and the energy felt so much easier than before.
She told me she was leaving our phone call with more clarity than she received in all of her dealings with that $10,000 program.
Whoa! She even said she wished she'd paid me the money instead of the big-name coach (Me too! Oh, me too.). But BOOM. The light bulb finally came on in my head. Our community needs right-brained, intelligent, capable, honest, communicative, intuitive and creative teachers.
We need people who can coach the dream *and* teach the business.
Soul Print Path was born.
My vision for Soul Print Path and for you...
I imagine Soul Print Path as an imaginary forest where you can lose yourself in learning, fun and adventure. My vision is for Soul Print Path to be a virtual retreat, or camp, for life coaches, midwives, virtual assistants, hippie-preneurs and people who want to live and work in meaningful ways.
I teach, hold space, coach, listen and guide, as needed. All stops on this adventure are safe places where you can pull up a chair (or a floor pillow!) and discuss your business, your self and your dreams, over a warm mug.
You'll find quiet support instead of of loud push tactics. You'll find real answers instead of low-value fluff. You'll find clarity amidst chaos, and rustic atmosphere instead of a mainstream polished enterprise.
Whether you work with me or simply come by to read the blog, I hope your experience leads to inspiration, clarity, clients and abundance. I truly believe that you can run a thriving business that makes the world a better place, and I hope my work supports you in doing that.
Be easy, sister. We can figure it out, together.
Some Other Stuff About Me...
I have a deep Christian Faith.
I support unschooling.
I am one part hippie and one part geek, way down in my soul.
I drink lemon water.
I get excited about string lights.
I love Nancy Drew mysteries.
Gypsies fascinate me.
I crochet.
Murder She Wrote marathons make me very, very excited.
I sing.
I am an advocate of ATV safety legislation, midwifery and natural childbirth - among other things.
I would love to own a tiny cottage, powered with solar energy and made with eco-friendly materials (Weathered tin roof? Yes, please!).

In more recent years, he taught at Rockland Community College. While pursuing graduate studies, he financed his education by serving as a lifeguard and swimming instructor at various local clubs. In the mid-1970s, he served as director of the Torview Club in Ossining. He was a lifelong parishioner of St. Theresa's Church in Briarcliff Manor, where he served as an usher.
He is survived by his brothers, William and James; and his sisters, Nancy Bernasek and Sheila Rose.
His father and mother predeceased him in 2010 and 2011.

Ksenia Stolbova and Fedor Klimov: Half of the program passed almost at our maximum
let everyone watch the first half and the ending
Ksenia Stolbova and Fedor Klimov told Tatjana Flade about their new programs and what happened during the free program at Finlandia Trophy.
As they say the first pancake is always lumpy. You started so well…
Fedor: Yes, we started well, half of the program passed almost at our maximum at the moment. Then a mistake on the first lift. I don't understand…
Ksenia: Most likely, this is my mistake. I did a change badly, there was a little disruption, apparently, I drifted.
Fedor: It confused a little bit. But we continued, it seemed well, but during or on the entry to the second lift, or on the spin my laces fell off the hook. So I skated with the unlaced boot. Perhaps mistakes happened because of this. I felt this on the second lift and began to think what to do, whether to stop the program. But we had only three elements left. While I was thinking about all this, we failed the spin, after which I decided to straighten the lace. The last two elements were already done on the nerves, but it's good that we coped. The whole situation is a happenstance. In fact, there was only one serious mistake, in the middle of the program. This, probably, because we haven't been skating much yet, the beginning of the season.
Ksenia: Yes, it's been exactly a month since the moment when we started to train fully. Fedya started to do lifts in early September, because doctors did not allow him. And at the moment, I think that in principle we performed very worthily, except for these mistakes, of course.
Fedor: We failed two lifts, everything else was at a good level, we did the jumping elements.
Ksenia: As for the triple twist, I also wanted to say that we started doing it on ice only three weeks ago. Of course, it's still in a raw state, and it's too early to conclude that it will look like this during the whole season. Of course not. We will work on it.
Fedor: But tooday it wasn't bad.
Still it's very dangerous when there are such problems with laces. Fedya, didn't you feel anything going on the lift?
Fedor: No, I did not. When we have already done it, then I felt it. Then I thought that there's one more lift to go. Probably it was necessary to skip the spin, but I tried to enter it. But this does not change the whole picture … In general, let everyone watch the first half and the ending. (Laughing)
Indeed, from the very beginning the program looked very good. "Carmen" is quite an overused music, but your program is liked. And really, very few pairs used this music.
Ksenia: Thank you, we tried. I was very afraid, when in the off-season we were choosing music. In general, we did not consider the classic and overused options. I even haven't thought about Carmen. There was an idea to use "Scheherazade", but this is also an overused music. We decided to try Carmen, because, in fact, it's hard to remember who among pairs used it. Maybe a long time ago someone skated, but from our generation – no one. I think Jessica Dube skated at couple of competitions. But in general, this music was not used in pair skating, so it would be a sin not to take it.
Ksenia, was it your decision to take Carmen?
Ksenia: It was a joint decision with Nina Mikhailovna (Mozer), because the program that we originally did with Marie-France Dubreuil, we did not really like. We thought that it is a good program, but it is not an Olympic program. Therefore, it was decided to do "Carmen" after all.
Which music was chosen originally?
Ksenia: It was similar to the one we've been skating the last two seasons – modern. Yes, we did a very good program, but we did not feel that we could pull it to the level we want.

There were more percentages of Western Europe than she had expected. Now to quiz the aunts and her dad. From where did this come? Do I dare do the swab? Would it truly be Scotch, Irish and English?

Who I am
Chapter 1: I'll go away, if it makes you happy.
Dean sat in the driver's seat, quiet and lost in his thoughts as he drove down the darkened road. He wanted so badly to get as far away as possible from reality. He'd been driving for three excruciating days. Literally. The minute he found out about his father's death he grabbed Sam and took him straight to where the Impala lay, and took off immediately. True. He had wanted at least some sort of revenge. But what he had really wanted was to just get away. No. He wanted to runaway. He felt like he was a fugitive to just about everything. Next to him was Sam. Ever sense they left the Hospital, Sam kept telling him that revenge wasn't the way to go and what they really needed to do was go back and bury their father. He had denied every part of it because that's only part of what he felt. He also knew that Sam had wanted revenge too, but just didn't have the nerve to admit it. Now Sam was asleep, and Dean was stuck trying to find a place to rest.
"Damn it!" Murmured Dean. Where the hell am I going to find a damn place to rest!
"…D-Dean…is that you?" asked an Awakening Sam.
"Go back to sleep Sam." Said Dean.
"No. I've already slept way too much…" "Uh, Why are we still on the road?" asked Sam, looking out the window.
"Gee I don't know. Why do you think we're still on the road Sam?" asked a pissed Dean.
"…Dean?" "What's wrong?" asked Sam.
"Nothing." Replied Dean.
" Are you-"
"Sam…I said nothing is wrong…" Dean said sternly, as he increased the volume of the radio.
"…Um, Dean… I-I think we need to talk." Said Sam.
Suddenly the car stopped and the radio was off. Sam immediately turned towards Dean, and saw that he had taken out the keys to the car.
" Dean! Are you crazy! We're in the middle of the road!" Exclaimed Sam.
" So? Who cares? Now. How about we step out of the car and talk about whatever it was that you wanted to talk about," said Dean.
"Dean what-"
"You heard me Sam, step out, and we can talk about it." Said Dean.
"No Dean!" "What the hell is your problem!" shouted an angered Sam.
"SAM! Just get out of the damn car!" bellowed Dean.
"Well, if it makes you happy!" snarled Sam, as he slammed the door shut.
Dean opened his door and made his ways towards Sam, who was also heading towards him. Once they met in front of the car, Sam shoved Dean backwards.
"Why the hell are you acting this way Dean!" "I WANT TO KNOW-" Just as Sam was about to finish his sentence, out of nowhere; Dean cuffed him across the face.
"Shut-up! SHUT-UP SAM!" shouted Dean.
"NO! Ever sense we left the hospital you've been acting strange, and I want to know why! Right now Dean! I want to know right now!" yelled Sam.
"You really want to know Sam? You really want to know!" "Well in case you haven't noticed, OUR FAMILY IS DEAD SAM!" "DEAD!" Shouted Dean.
" I know Dean. But why are you doing this? Why are you running away?" asked Sam.
"I think you know why Sam." Said Dean, as he turned to face the other side of the road.
"No, I don't know Dean!" " You know Dean, there's times like these when I just don't get you. And believe it or not there's times when I wish you weren't even my brother!" shouted Sam.
Suddenly Dean whipped around and started striking Sam in the face multiple times.
"D-Dean…p-please stop." Whimpered Sam, while being hurled onto the car.
Once Dean realized what he was doing, he stopped immediately.
"Sam! I-I…I d-didn't mean…I'm s-so sorry." Dean said as he looked at his brother's beaten, bloody face.
As Sam got up, he started to moan.
"H-here let me help you." Said Dean reaching to help Sam.
"NO!" "Don't touch me!" Sam said, as he jerked away from Dean's outstretched hands.
"Sam…" Murmured Dean.
"No! No Sam!" "I don't know what's happened to you! You've changed!" Shouted Sam.
"Sam just listen to me!" shouted Dean.
"NO! I won't listen to you! You know what else Dean! I just figured out something else! That I never even liked this family! That's probably why I went to College anyways! It was to get away from you!" "And you know what! I think I'll leave you now too!" Screamed Sam.
"Alright Sam, if you want to go. Go." "…Go on Sam. It's not like anybody's stopping you." Said Dean.
"Fine!" Yelled Sam.
"FINE!" Shouted Dean, as he made his way back to the car, and Drove off leaving Sam behind.

GUEST ARTICLE: The famous Daintree Rainforest is located 90 minutes drive out of Cairns, Queensland in North-Eastern Australia. The drive is really scenic as you meander along the beautiful rocky coast, with fields of tall sugarcane and of course the lush mountainous rainforest.
Along the way we stopped at a place called Bruce Belcher's Croc Cruises and for $20 we hopped on one of his little river boats and went up and down the Daintree River in search of crocs along the muddy banks. The cruise didn't disappoint and we spotted quite a few crocs both big and small. Afterwards we hopped back in our car and took a ferry across the river to Cape Tribulation and the Daintree National Park.
As soon as we entered the park we came across numerous "Cassowaries Crossing" signs. The Cassowary is a giant flightless bird that can be up to six feet tall and weigh up to 104lbs. They are known to be notoriously vicious when it comes to protecting their young and they've also been known to have killed men with their sharp razor like toenails.
Don't even think of trying to outrun them unless of course you clock faster than 30mph or have some funky wolverine like toenails of your own. Unfortunately we didn't come across any of these beauties, next time!
We went into the Rainforest Discovery Centre and climbed up the Canopy Tower but unfortunately once again we didn't see anything, even at all levels of the canopy looking into the different levels of the rainforest, not sure it's worth $30 each.
We did get to go on a really good walk after that though and for free. It's called the Marrdja Botanical Walk, an excellent 540 meter wooden boardwalk that takes you through both the lush rainforest and the mangroves. There's also a very peculiar tree there that's like one I've never seen before made up of a mass of intertwining roots, very cool.
After all of that walking we decided to cool off and drove to Thornton Beach and took a dip in the beautiful lukewarm waters. The beaches run for miles and you can almost get them pretty much to yourself – perfect. Being the end of winter the dangerous Box Jellyfish weren't around yet, so it was okay to go in but in the summer months they don't recommend entering the waters without stinger suits.
We had a wonderful trip through the rainforest, there are plenty of other attractions throughout the area and if you're feeling really adventurous you can 4×4 it even further north to Cooktown or Weipa and experience the real Aussie Outback!
We saw lots of bus tours into the Daintree Rainforest but we reckon the best way to see the park is to rent your own car and be free to stop and see things at your own pace. September/October is the perfect time to visit the area – not super hot or humid and no days spoiled by rain or box jellyfish!

Caitlyn Jenner Wants An Invite If Kris Jenner Marries Corey Gamble
She wants an invite! If Kris Jenner walks down the aisle with boyfriend/fitness instructor Corey Gamble, Caitlyn Jenner wants to be there on their special day, HollywoodLife.com has EXCLUSIVELY learned.
They may have split, and Kris Jenner, 59, might have struggled to get to grips with the gender transition of Caitlyn Jenner, 65, but the former Olympic decathlon champion wants nothing but happiness for her ex-wife. In fact, she's hoping that Kris marries boyfriend Corey Gamble — just so she can get an invite to their nuptials, HollywoodLife.com has EXCLUSIVELY learned.
It seems that Kris is finally coming to terms with Caitlyn's change, recently breaking her silence on that Vanity Fair cover, and Caitlyn hopes for better times for Kris, according to a well-placed source. It would be really great if these two could get along, if only for the sake of their children.
It would be so nice for Caitlyn to be there on Kris and Corey's special day, wouldn't it? It would truly show the Kardashian-Jenner family is united for good, and that family definitely comes first for them. Plus, it would make their children — especially Kylie, 17, and Kendall, 19 — so incredibly happy.
What d'you think HollywoodLifers? If Kris gets married, should she invite Caitlyn to the wedding?

Following on from yesterday's post, I played with creating a One Sheet Wonder using a 6"x6" sheet of Designer Series Paper (DSP).
I used out Notecards & Envelopes, and made six cards from one sheet.
The first DSP I used was from the Serene Scenery DSP Stack, but I felt the designs were too bland for a One Sheet Wonder.
Once I'd made all six cards, I felt they needed extra embellishments e.g. flowers, butterflies, etc.
The other problem was that I chose a design that had the sky on one side which resulted in having some pieces adhered vertically instead of horizontally.
I certainly recommend avoiding directional patterns when using this technique, because it adds another factor to the
equation when working out where to make the cuts!
I chose a Mint Macaroon sheet from the Blooms & Bliss DSP, and I cut all the shapes, and stamped all the sentiments.
Then I adhered everything to the appropriate layer.
For the video, I chose a Blushing Bride sheet from the Blooms & Bliss DSP, prepared all the Blushing Bride Cardstock (CS) layers, and the Whisper White CS for the sentiments.
I prepared everything this way so I could show the process of cutting the DSP but without having to make my subscribers sit and watch me glue twelve pieces of DSP to their CS layers!
After I'd finished the video, I started downloading it to YouTube. While I was waiting for this to happen, I went back to
the Blushing Bride DSP and CS, and finished making those cards.
Now I've successfully made a video showing a 6"x6" One Sheet Wonder, I'll go back and see if I can make one using a 12" x 12" sheet.
My biggest concern is how long it would actually make the video as I made ten out of my first 12x12 attempt!
This style of card is definitely best suited to a fairly busy design on the DSP.
I feel it stands on its own much better than the DSP as shown in photographs 3 and 6, but could take extra embellishments if desired!
I hope you've enjoyed seeing my experiments with One Sheet Wonders. I'd love to hear your feedback whether you feel this is a technique worth trying, or if you're like my hubby, you don't see the point! LOL!
I wish you a happy Mother's Day if you're in a part of the world that's celebrating today. Until tomorrow, happy crafting.

Based on good attendance at cottonseed company field days this fall in Arizona, cotton growers are leaving the door open to plant cotton next year amid growing crop competition, the 14th consecutive year of state-declared drought, and other factors.
Growers are weighing cropping options to make the best decision for the year ahead.
Arizona cotton acreage – about 160,000 acres this year – is about 40,000 acres less than the year prior (20 percent less). Acreage is almost all Upland varieties except for about 1,000 acres of Pima cotton.
In early October, cotton growers, ginners, and other cotton aficionados came out in full force for the Monsanto-Deltapine Cotton Field Day held at Sierra Farms in Casa Grande (Pinal County), hosted by owner Don England, Jr.
In true cotton-farming fashion, tractor-pulled wagons carted growers alongside field trials as David Albers, Monsanto's production development manager for cotton germplasm, discussed current the most popular Deltapine Upland varieties.
"DP 1044 B2RF is the most widely planted variety in Arizona and Texas," Albers told the crowd. "DP 1044 B2RF is a mid-maturity, easy-to-manage variety which has great yield potential and excellent quality. The consistency of the crop is what attracts growers to this variety."

DP 1044 B2RF is planted on 36 percent of Arizona's cotton acreage. Pima cotton represents about 1,000 of the total.
"The variety's heat tolerance and limited water performance make it a good variety for Arizona and Texas," Albers said. "It performs very well in limited water situations."
The trailer stopped next at the DP 1359 B2RF plot, a taller, full-season variety with good yields. Albers says the variety dominated the 2012 University of Arizona cotton trials and has performed well in Texas. The fiber length is similar to DP 1044 B2RF.
"If growers have the water supply and can push the crop full season, DP 1359 B2RF can deliver amazing yields," Albers said.
He later shared that a Central Arizona grower who participated in Monsanto's New Product Evaluator program last year harvested seven bales of cotton per acre with DP 1359 B2RF.
A third stop was the rows planted with DP 1219 B2RF, a mid- to mid-full season variety for Arizona which entered the commercial market last year. Plant maturity falls between DP 1044 B2RF (mid) and DP 1159B2RF (full).
Albers said, "DP 1219B2RF brings a good combination of yield and fiber quality. It is a staple-length longer than the other two varieties and has slightly lower micronaire."
These three varieties came out of the Monsanto's Arizona breeding program.
Deltapine seed is planted on 58 percent of Arizona's cotton acreage this year, according to the USDA Agricultural Marketing Service's Cotton and Tobacco Program.Deltapine cottonseed is the most planted in the nation with 33 percent of the acreage.
Bayer CropScience cottonseed
Bayer CropScience's Fibermax brand is the second most planted nationally, followed by Dow AgroScience's Phytogen brand, Americot, Bayer CropScience's Stoneville brand, Dyna-Gro, and All-Tex., reports the USDA.
USDA reports that Bayer CropScience's Stoneville Upland varieties have 13 percent of the Arizona market share. The company's FiberMax Upland brand has a 9 percent market share (22-percent combined).
Ninety-nine percent of the U.S. cotton crop is transgenic varieties.
Cotton growers turned out in strong numbers at the Bayer CropScience Cotton Field Day hosted by David Stambaugh at Stambaugh Farms in Eloy (Pinal County).
Kenny Melton, Bayer CropScience principal agronomist, led the field tours, showcasing Stoneville 4946GLB2 in its commercial debut this year on the Arizona market.
"Stoneville 4946GLB2 is an early- to mid-maturing variety designed to replace Stoneville 5458B2RF and Stoneville 4498B2RF. Stoneville 4498B2RF has been a mainstay in Arizona," Melton said.
Stoneville 4946GLB2 produced better yield and fiber quality than the two other varieties in Arizona field tests, Melton says, plus has tolerance to the root knot nematode.
Stoneville 5458B2RF should be on the market for a few more years while supplies of Stoneville 4498B2RF will be limited next year.
"We are not replacing Stoneville 4498B2RF lightly," Melton said. "We know we have to out yield it. We believe Stoneville 4946B2RF will outperform Stoneville 4498B2RF."
Stoneville 4946GLB2 cotton holds slightly tighter in the burr than Stoneville 5458B2RF.
At another stop, Melton said Stoneville's 6448GLB2 variety is a mid- to full-season variety with good fiber quality and yield.
"Stoneville 6448GLB2 is unique since the Stoneville line did not previously have a variety in this maturity class. Stoneville 6448GLB2 is more of a full-season variety with good yield and fiber quality."
2013 is the first year on the commercial market with limited seed availability for Stoneville's 4946GLB2 and 6448GLB2 varieties. Melton says plenty of seed will be available next year.
On the FiberMax side, FiberMax 1944GLB2 is an early- to mid-season maturity but more on the mid side, Melton says. It comes out of the same background as FiberMax 1740B2F, but is a slightly longer-season variety with more aggressive growth.
"FiberMax 194GLB2 has significantly better fiber quality than FiberMax 1740B2F," Melton said.
Dow AgroSciences Phytogen offerings
Turning to Dow AgroSciences, the company's Phytogen Upland varieties with an agronomic fit for Arizona include PHY 375WRF and PHY 499WRF, says Dow's senior sales representative John Reding. These varieties are Dow's top sellers in Arizona and Southern California.
USDA says Dow Phytogen has a 14-percent Arizona market share.
PHY 375WRF, in its fourth year on the commercial market, is an early- to mid-maturity, easy to grow and manage variety with good heat tolerance, Reding says. The variety has performed well in central and western Arizona.
PHY 499WRF is a mid-maturity variety with good heat tolerance which has performed well in yield trials and commercial plantings. Reding says PHY 499WRF is a popular variety in Arizona and Southern California, and was the top variety planted in the U.S. in 2012 and 21013.
PHY 339WRF is an early maturing, somewhat determinate variety introduced this year with a columnar, upright growth pattern.
Reding says performance data on PHY 339WRF from plots and several commercial fields will be shared during Dow meetings with growers in January.
PHY 367WRF is another early maturing, bushy variety with medium height which has performed well in eastern Arizona.
Dyna-Gro cotton varieties
With about 2 percent of the Arizona market is Dyna-Gro cottonseed, a proprietary product from Crop Protection Services (CPS). Dominic Antongiovanni, CPS' south-west division seed manager, shared the following cottonseed varieties for the Arizona market.
DG 2570 is a smooth-leaf, broadly adaptable, medium maturity variety with vigorous growth. It performs well in sandy and silt ground and adapts well to sub-par growing conditions.
Antongiovanni says DG 2610 offers a medium-to-full maturity with a semi-smooth leaf and a semi-tall plant type. It also grows well sandy and silt loams. Maximizing production with growth inhibitors is recommended in the early-growth cycle to maximize yield.
The DG 2595 variety offers medium maturity with a semi-smooth leaf and medium-to-tall plant height.
DG 2595 and DG 2285 have high yield potential under intense management, says Antongiovanni. DG 2285 is an early-maturing variety with a good fit for the short-growing season in the Yuma area and behind grain in Coolidge.
