Spinach growers in coastal California counties fought more downy mildew and damping-off diseases in 2005 and should watch for them in 2006, according to a Monterey County plant pathology farm advisor.
Steve Koike, speaking at a plant disease seminar in Salinas, said the spinach industry is under tremendous pressure to continue output of top quality and high volume.
"That's why downy mildew, the major foliar disease of spinach, and damping off, caused by a complex of fungi, are our two main concerns for the crop," he said.
The 2005 season also brought other disease developments in coastal vegetables that need to be monitored in 2006.
Koike said virtually all the samples of downy mildew recovered on spinach in the coastal region in 2005 were identified as race 10, although a few samples were of race 6. Race 10 is also the predominant race in spinach in the desert, where race 6 has not been detected.
The main control has been the pair of resistant varieties, Lazio and Amelia, but Koike said seed companies hope to make more resistant varieties available.
During the winter of 2005, examples of race 10 downy mildew, low in concentration and incidence, showed up in a field of the Lazio variety. That raised suspicions that those finds signaled the appearance of an eleventh race, but all samples have been identified as race 10.
Due to their sparse distribution, Koike said, these cases were likely off-type plants that did not carry the true Lazio resistance.
Defense materials
Other available defenses include materials such as the fungicide Aliette and the plant supplement Blockade. Meanwhile, spinach data bases are being developed for new fungicides used on lettuce and manufacturers are seeking registrations for spinach for their products.
"With all the new acreage of spinach going in, we are seeing more soilborne problems like damping off, which is caused by a complex of Pythium, Fusarium, and Rhizoctonia," he said.
"We all know it's not a good idea to plant back-to-back spinach or to plant two or three crops of spinach in a calendar year, but that is being done. Ranches that have heavy spinach cropping sequences see these diseases more frequently."
Pythium strikes first, immediately after emergence or even pre-emergence, and then the others tend to occur later after spinach is in the four-leaf stage. The Fusarium that goes to spinach is not the same as that on lettuce or celery.
The Rhizoctonia of spinach is the same R. solani species that attacks cauliflower and other crops, so care needs to be taken with rotations.
Although Pythium can be managed to an extent with Ridomil applied for downy mildew, Koike said, rotation is the only practice for management of Fusarium and Rhizoctonia.
Celery diseases
Turning to celery diseases, he said he saw more aster yellows in celery during 2005 than at any time in the past 15 years. A type of bacteria that was earlier thought to be a virus, this pathogen is vectored by leafhoppers and distorts and yellows celery. It also goes to iceberg and romaine lettuce.
Although not a serious problem, aster yellows tends to show up in certain fields with regularity, suggesting reservoirs of weed hosts exist between infections. Koike recommended avoiding planting celery and lettuce in fields having a history of the disease.
He said 2005 also brought instances during the spring and summer of another infrequent disease, black rot, on cauliflower, broccoli, and Brussels sprouts. The bacterial, seedborne pathogen causes black, triangular lesions and, at times, black veining on leaves.
In a typical situation, transplants from infected seed are grown under sprinkler irrigation, which splashes infection to other plants. "In all the cases we worked with in 2005, sprinklers were involved," Koike said. Weeds of the crucifer family are hosts and also contribute to infections.
Generally, if these Xanthomonas campestris bacteria are present in a field alone without a crop-residue host, they do not survive longer than 40 to 60 days after being disked under. But if residue of cauliflower, for example, is present to support them, they can be recovered from the soil more than a year later, so rotation with non-host crops is important.
Another disease, black leg, caused by a Phoma fungus, appeared on crucifer crops in desert areas in 2005, and Koike said although it has not been a problem in the Salinas Valley, it has potential to become one. It, too, is seedborne and can become established with transplants under sprinkler irrigation.
Bacterial leaf spot, a predominantly seedborne disease of lettuce, caused some serious problems in the Salinas Valley in 2005, he said.
"It's on the seed, but it also is soilborne for short periods of time and that's how it is persisting in our cropping system. We had outbreaks of it from late July to the end of the season."
Needs week hosts
Another Xanthomonas campestris pathogen separate from the black rot of crucifers, leaf spot goes to all lettuces. It depends on weed hosts and is worsened by sprinkler irrigation.
Koike's inoculation trials showed it can carry over in the soil, and he recommended fields infected with it be taken out of lettuce for five months or longer.
Tomato spotted wilt virus, which fluctuates from year to year in coastal lettuce fields, was found again during 2005. A thrips-vectored disease common to peppers, especially in the past two seasons, and tomatoes, its dark-brown, burnlike symptoms in lettuce resemble phytotoxicity. Difficult to diagnose in the field, it and other viruses need lab tests to identify.
The perennial "moving target" for Salinas Valley lettuce growers, downy mildew, has put plant pathologists to work monitoring three of its pathotypes, 6, 7, and 8. Several reports from growers in the desert and Watsonville and elsewhere indicated that these were controlled by Ridomil during 2005.
Koike said tests confirmed Ridomil is indeed effective on samples taken from those areas. "This is counter to what we've been saying the past 10 years or so. We can't say why this switch in sensitivity occurred."
He said all the lettuce downy mildew strains remained sensitive to Aliette during 2005, although some strains were identified as resistant a couple of years ago.
Lettuce wilt
Another surprise for 2005 was the arrival of Fusarium wilt on iceberg lettuce in southern Monterey County. Long known in the Huron and Yuma areas and other lettuce growing areas of the world, it can be spotted by a general yellowing, wilting, and decline of lettuce plants. It is commonly spread by equipment.
"Look for darkened vascular tissue down the center core of the plant. If you find a plant like this, bring it in to our office and we'll run a test on it," he said.
Koike said Fusarium wilt symptoms can resemble Verticillium wilt (not presently in the Salinas Valley), advanced corky root, and ammonia toxicity. Fusarium, he added, is associated with warmer temperatures and would not likely survive in the cooler, northern end of the valley.

One could argue that the target audience - black teenagers, Mr. Lucas has said - might be most receptive to a film that conveys history through contemporary entertainment. But this isn't contemporary entertainment, it's antiquated kitsch reprocessed by the producer's nostalgia for the movies of his boyhood. The story has been stripped of historical context - don't black teenagers and everyone else deserve hard facts? - and internal logic.
Read Full Review
Every character here is so squeaky-clean, and the prejudice as depicted is so toothless and easily overcome, that the film feels like a gingerly fantasy version of what, in real life, was an exceptional example of resilient trail-blazing.
David Oyelowo stands out as the daredevil Joe "Lightning" Little, the unit's best flier. With his bravery and bravado, he's the film's most complex character.
As long as it stays in the air, Red Tails is a compelling sky-war pageant of a movie. On the ground, it's a far shakier experience: dutiful and prosaic, with thinly scripted episodes that don't add up to a satisfying story.

OK for kids 13+
Wartime drama mixes aerial combat, worthy messages, cliches.
What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Red Tails is a World War II action-drama inspired by the real-life Tuskegee Airmen, an all-black fighter pilot squadron. Executive produced by George Lucas, the film has several intense aerial combat sequences (including loud gunfire, fiery explosions, bloody injuries, crashes, and deaths) and shows the racism the aviators encountered every day. It's stirring (if not exactly unpredictable) and patriotic and tells an important story with messages about bravery, duty, loyalty, and friendship. In addition to the many battle sequences, there's some swearing (including "s--t" and the "N" word) and drinking (one character battles a dependence on alcohol), as well as a relationship between one of the pilots and a local Italian girl.
Messages: The story has strong messages about equality, duty, loyalty, and friendship. The African-American pilots face prejudice at almost every level of the military, but those attitudes are shown to be small-minded and wrong, as the pilots' skill, bravery, teamwork, and dedication to duty finally win over even some of their most bitter detractors. Through sometimes-painful consequences, characters also learn lessons about following orders, believing in themselves, and putting honor above glory.
Role models: The Red Tails are daring and brave and eager to fight to defend their country, even though the military (and many Americans in general) see them as second-class citizens. Most of them suffer from some kind of flaw (lack of confidence, overconfidence, bad attitude, etc.), but their relationships with each other and their unit -- and their ability to finally prove themselves in battle -- help them learn from their mistakes. Some of the characters feel a bit stereotypical, but that's largely due to script weaknesses.
Violence: Many intense aerial combat sequences as the pilots tangle with German fighters in the air and/or strafe targets on the ground (including trains, trucks, an airfield, and more). Lots of loud gunfire and big explosions, and several scenes feature injured pilots who are struggling to return to their base despite serious, often bloody injuries. Major characters are hurt in battle, and one is captured. Planes catch on fire and crash; early sequences show bomber crews taking severe losses (including close-ups of some dead soldiers' faces). The pilots also occasionally get into fistfights on the ground with each other or with other members of the military.
Sex: A pilot courts an Italian woman who lives near their base; they exchange a few kisses, and one scene shows them waking up together (he's shirtless, and she's in lingerie).
Language: Language includes "s--t," "ass," "damn," "bitch," "bastard," "hell," "goddamn," and "crap." A white soldier insults a black pilot using the "N" word. "Negro" is used frequently, as it was a common way of referring to African Americans in the 1940s; "colored" is also used often but is seen as a more derogatory term.
Consumerism: Not an issue
Drinking, drugs and smoking: One character has a drinking problem that grows more serious throughout the film; he frequently sips out of a flask, often seeming desperate for a drink. One of the unit's commanding officers likes to smoke a pipe; cigars are also seen and smoked. Some scenes take place in bars where the soldiers drink to blow off steam.

Infrequently Asked Questions
Below are questions that I wish students would ask more frequently. If you are asking yourself any of these questions, please give yourself a pat on the back for doing so, and then look to the answers below. If you don't yet have any questions, I hope this list will give you some ideas regarding what you should be thinking about as you go through the course.
How can I best deal with the readings for this class?
Reading has a different place in a Humanities & Religious Studies course than in most other types of courses (math, science, business, art, etc.). In this and most other classes in our department, readings are a bit like problem sets or labs; they are often the heart of what we are concerned with in class, rather than simply serving as supplementary or optional guide that can help you figure out how to handle the main work of the course. If you understand this and take reading seriously, this course will quite likely be very manageable; without this understanding, however, you may have a hard time even obtaining a passing score.
In general you should plan two hours of study for every hour of class time. Students generally do best who plan blocks of time in their schedule to work with the readings, rather than simply attempting to get through them from start to finish as quickly as possible. Whether by setting aside an hour daily or a larger block of time several times week, the successful reader finds a time & place when & where she will be relaxed yet alert, and won't be distracted by other things (e.g., early morning, and/or on a cozy couch, and/or sitting with coffee/tea).
Also, most people do best when taking frequent breaks while reading--especially when catching oneself not having absorbed anything in the past paragraph or page. The experienced reader avoids forcing herself to proceed from beginning to end of a reading if she gets stuck--instead skipping ahead when reading becomes impossibly challenging, and then coming back to the difficult section later to see if any further progress can be made. The key is to focus on fully grasping what you read rather than finishing every single page. It is advisable however to skim headings & first sentences of each paragraph for sections one hasn't had time to read; and then make general notes on the content of what one hasn't read in depth so that at least one knows which pages to go back to later if they turn out to contain necessary material. In general, too, making brief notes in the margins or on slips of paper inserted into the book will greatly increase focus and abililty to remember what is read. If you need help with reading, the Writing Center (in Calaveras Hall) can assign a tutor to work with you; but you must make an appointment in advance.
- College level reading inevitably pushes a reader to expand her or his vocabulary. However, this does not happen automatically--it requires a dictionary! The gap between knowing how to use a dictionary and actually doing it is a huge one for many people. Keep in mind that you need to have a dictionary physically present next to you as you read in order to use it! On-line dictionaries do no good unless one reads at the computer; and a dictionary sitting on a distant shelf does almost as little good. Also, many readers benefit from making their own glossary of terms, especially since these are the basis of half the questions on every TRA. Many people find it helpful to do this on index cards, with each entry including not only the word and its definition, but where it appears in the reading (and where the definition was found, if not the dictionary) so that examples can be found again.

BlackBerry is a line of mobile e-mail and smartphone devices developed by Canadian company Research In Motion (RIM). While including typical smartphone applications (address book, calendar, to-do lists, etc., and telephone capabilities), the BlackBerry is primarily known for its ability to send and receive Internet e-mail wherever it can access a mobile network of certain cellular phone carriers. It commands a 20.8% share of worldwide smartphone sales, making it the second most popular platform after Nokia's Symbian OS. The service is available in North America and in most European countries.
Synchronization Using barry
This example syncronizes your blackberrys contacts and calender with your evolution contacts and calender. In theory the same princible should be able to be applied to other mail and calander clients. Including kmail and Google calender.
Installing packages
evolution - from the extra repository
msynctool-stable - from the AUR - https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=32917
libopensync-plugin-evolution2-stable - from the AUR - https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=39025
barry - from the AUR https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=20874
When building barry, the PKGBUILD must be edited to enable the barry opensync plugin to be built. This must be added to the configure line in the PKGBUILD as shown below.
./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-gui --enable-opensync-plugin
Currently the barry opensync plugin will only build against opensync-stable and msynctool-stable
Creating a Sync Pair
Setup evolution to use your liking if you have not done so already.
Create a sync group called evoberry
msynctool --addgroup evoberry
Add evolution and the blackberry to the sync group.
msynctool --addmember evoberry evo2-sync msynctool --addmember evoberry barry-sync
Configure the evolution member
msynctool --configure evoberry 1
Change the defaults to the location of your evolution files as shown in the example
<config> <address_path>file:///home/user/.evolution/addressbook/local/system</address_path> <calender_path>file:///home/user/.evolution/calendar/local/system</calender_path> <tasks_path>file:///home/user/.evolution/tasks/local/system</tasks_path> </config>
Configure the blackberry member
msynctool --configure evoberry 2
Change the device number to your blackberry pin number as shown in the example.
# # This is the default configuration file for the barry-sync opensync plugin. # Comments are preceded by a '#' mark at the beginning of a line. # The config format is a set of lines of <keyword> <values>. # # Keywords available: # # DebugMode - If present, verbose USB debug output will be enabled # # Device - If present, it is followed by the following values: # PIN number - PIN number of the device to sync with (in hex) # sync calendar - 1 to sync calendar, 0 to skip # sync contacts - 1 to sync contacts, 0 to skip # # Password secret - If present, specifies the device's password in plaintext # #DebugMode Device 00000000 1 1 #Password secret
Sync and smile
Make sure evolution is closed and your blackberry is connected then issue the sync command.
msynctool --sync evoberry

Tool Test: Lie-Nielsen No. 101 Block Plane
This wee bronze plane from Warren, Maine, is a reproduction (of sorts) of the Stanley No. 101 plane – a small block plane originally designed for household use and light work (and sold in toy tool chests, according to Patrick Leach's "Blood and Gore" web site).
But unlike its inspiration, this new version from Lie-Nielsen, which is also called a violin maker's plane, has all the same features as its slightly larger cousin, the No. 102, including a stainless steel adjuster to advance and retract the blade.
With a sole just less than 3″ long and 11⁄4″ wide, the plane fits comfortably in even the smallest hands, and its size allows you to work very locally indeed, and in tight spaces – and anywhere else you'd typically turn to a block plane. Plus, it's the perfect size for slipping into an apron pocket or even your pants pocket.
The 7⁄8″-wide A2 steel iron is bedded at 20° for a typical 45° cutting angle.

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — A federal judge in Oregon is denying defense lawyers' efforts to reveal all surveillance information about their client obtained under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.
U.S. District Judge Garr King said late Wednesday that he doesn't believe he can or should force the government to provide that surveillance in the case of Mohamed Mohamud.
The Somali-American was accused in an FBI sting of plotting to detonate a bomb at Portland's downtown Christmas tree lighting in 2010. Undercover agents supplied a fake bomb.
Government lawyers disclosed in November that prosecutors conducted warrantless overseas surveillance directed at Mohamud.
The disclosure came months after Mohamud was convicted of attempting to detonate a weapon of mass destruction. Mohamud argued that the late notice means he may not have received a fair trial.

Boston University Professor and President of the International Society for Autism Research Helen Tager-Flusberg will give a presentation titled "On the Origins and Development of Language and Communication in Autism Spectrum Disorder" for the next UC Davis MIND Institute Distinguished Lecturer Series presentation.
The lecture will take place on Wednesday, Dec. 12, from 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. in the MIND Institute auditorium at 2825 50th St., Sacramento. It is free and open to the public and no reservations are required.
In early September, the National Institutes of Health announced an award of $10 million to establish an Autism Center of Excellence at Boston University, with Tager-Flusberg as director. The five-year grant will fund research devoted to some of the least-probed aspects of autism, including developmental language disorders. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 30 percent of children with autism spectrum disorder have an inability to acquire spoken language and thus are very difficult to engage in standard testing. Research at the new center will focus on developing novel methods for assessing this group and on identifying reasons why so many children with autism fail to acquire spoken language.
Tager-Flusberg has studied language acquisition and autism for three decades.She is the director and principal investigator for Boston University's Research on Autism & Developmental Disorders, or ROADD (previously the Lab of Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience), which conducts behavioral and brain-imaging research on infants, children and adults with such neurodevelopmental disorders as autism. She also is director of the university's Developmental Science Program and professor in the Department of Psychology as well as the Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology.
Tager-Flusberg received her bachelor of science in psychology from University College, London, and her doctorate from Harvard University. From 1978 to 2001, she was a professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Massachusetts-Boston. From 1996 to 2001 she also held the position of senior scientist at the Eunice Kennedy Shriver Center, University of Massachusetts Medical Center. She has edited four books, serves on the editorial board of several professional journals, and is associate editor of the Journal of Neurodevelopmental Disorders and the British Journal of Psychology.
Other Distinguished Lecturer Series speakers will include:
• Jan. 9: Wendy Stone, director of the University of Washington Autism Center in Seattle, discussing "From Early Detection to Early Intervention: Bridging the Gap in Autism Services"
• Feb. 13: Catherine Lord, director of the Center for Autism and the Developing Brain at Weill Cornell Medical College in New York City, giving a talk titled "Longitudinal Studies of Autism Spectrum Disorder"
• March 13: Paul Patterson, the Anne P. and Benjamin F. Biaggini Professor of Biological Sciences at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, discussing "Gut-Brain-Immune Connections: Modeling an Environmental Risk Factor for Autism"
Additional series presentations will take place on April 10, May 8 and June 12.
All Distinguished Lecturer Series presentations are free and open to the public, with no reservations required. The MIND Institute Resource Center, specializing in information and resources relating to neurodevelopmental disorders and related conditions, is open one hour before and 30 minutes after each presentation.

Don't tell me you never had this question asked to you, subsequently to your, usually politely, explaining to whoever asks about your religion, that you're an atheist and do not believe in any god; you're an atheist and do not believe that a god exists; or whatever combination of words you choose.
That's pretty much how it goes.
Even people who know that atheists do not believe in a god will sometimes still assume they share a common set of beliefs or principles, and have common political tendencies.
"So, what do atheists believe?", is their question.
If you ask me, I've had a wide variety of comebacks, depending on my mood at the moment, most of them facetious, but most likely, after explaining that atheists (as a group) do not have a common set of beliefs, I say that *I* believe in love, in humanity and our good faith... just to keep it simple... because, quite frankly, we don't "believe" in science - we find it verifiable. We don't "believe" in the universe and its wonders, we have seen them through amazing telescopes. I guess you get my point.
So what do you, fellow atheist, believe in, or what do you think is the best answer to this question?
Side note: This discussion is focused rather on the best comeback to the question in it, which in this specific context, is always asked as "opposed to your non-belief in god, what do atheists believe?"

Wonderfully put, Meghan McWilliams!
I believe that the only way gods can exist is as social and mental constructs. In that sense, I consider myself a Pagan. For gods to exist in the external world, there would of necessity be evidence for such powerful beings. That evidence does not exist in any of the places we'd expect to find it, so I consider gods to be unlikely in the extreme. So extreme that I feel comfortable in declaring it a false proposition. In that sense, I am an atheist.
The only thing "definate" about atheism is the shared lack of beleif, after that it is entirely individualistic. I find most miss the mark here when trying to define atheism, (There really shouldn't even be an 'ism') unlike religeon with a set dogma to adhear to, atheism only states lack of beleif, nothing more.
I guess I would ask "how is an ATHEIST supposed to be?"
I am in complete agreement with you, Epicuresfan88.
The only reason atheism is an "ism" is because of the word "theism."
As to "how is an atheist supposed to be?", maybe we need to teach the believers how to reword their question, and hope they comply? I wouldn't hold my breath on that, though.
Hmm, I'd have to say I believe in truth. Only the things that are definitely real, those that are confirmed and observed. I believe in the brilliance and the corruption of humanity. I believe in intelligence and stupidity, believe in love and hate. Extremes and everything in between.
Not to say I don't entertain strange ideas in my head, I always like to let my mind wander. But, as to what I believe in, the things I stand for? Only those that I can tell are real, and are really worthwhile; for me, and for humanity.
I definitely love how everyone here has different things they view as important, yet I see very few arguments. Granted I'm new here so maybe I just haven't found them, but still, it's nice to see so many different views coexisting peacefully; and the only thing we all have in common is lack of belief in a deity. I believe in that too I suppose, that with religion out of the picture, people get on a little easier.
I believe that Evolution is not a matter of believing whether or not it is true. It is a matter of understanding it or not understanding it. If you are taught it properly or make the effort to learn it yourself then you will understand it and know it to be true. It is why Humans are here today. Many theists say they don't belief (in) it because of a few lines written 2500 years ago. However these theistic misconceptions hold sway because I believe theists do not understand Evolution. If they did they would believe it too.
I belief I am learning to keep my replies from rambling on too much.
If I had to generalize, I'd say that atheists tend to be politically liberal, skeptical, materialists. However, there's certainly people of all stripes who call themselves atheists. The only requirement is a lack of belief in God(s).
The fact is, you'll find articles of faith at the root of ALL propositions -- even in math. They're called assumptions. The problem with faith in God is that it's not necessary for any reason and has never been known to explain a single thing in the natural universe. It's entirely superfluous.
The second-most-significant thing atheists have in common is a lack of belief in the supernatural: leprechauns, miracles, gods, angels, devils, etc. God also falls in this category.
And finally, you can bet with reasonable confidence that nearly all atheists believe in rational integrity: even if they don't personally practice it. I see rational integrity as the most workable way to know truth (which is an elusive concept in itself). In this regard, atheists share much in common with scientists.
To believe in something is to accept it as being existent. Dictionary
One can say that they believe in Evolution if they find it to be true. Its just that the word belief has so commonly been used for blind beliefs, rationalists refrain from using it. But I will still dare to say that I believe in all the facts that can be verified over and over again.
Atheists are not a global union of people with a common set of beliefs. Everyone has their own beliefs and atheism respects that. Atheism is a individual's protest against those beliefs that disregard evidence and intrude in our day to day lives. An global union of Atheists if ever formed would be wise not to have a common set of theories that have to be believed in, as it would just lead to intellectual barricade.South Park After all, Science keeps trying to disprove the current theories wrong.
We never prove a theory right; we merely fail to prove it wrong.
- Karl Popper
Abstract things like love and morals can be believed in as they are verifiable. You can easily find animals that are more monogamous that us. Facts
You will also find that humans kill more of their kind than animals do, mostly for things other than mating or food. Does all of this mean that animals believe in love more than us? We can identify the hormones responsible for making as feel love and other emotions. So we know that there is a reason for all these. Even if we choose not to believe in them, they can be verified to be existent. There are evolutionary advantages for the existence of morals among us. Wikipedia
We do not see animals worshipping Allah 5 times a day, but we do find them caring, mating, bonding and sometimes even masturbating. Youtube
Anyone who can verify the existence of any supernatural power can easily become a millionaire in this world. James Randi Challenge No miracle is ever performed twice for verification. No holy book has ever contributed anything that we did not already know. No one has proved the existence of God which is why they ask you to have faith !!
Atheists do not believe in faith but in evidence and hence deny the possibility of a Celestial Daddy.
Haha - all praise Beer! I don't believe in beer, Morgan Johnston, I know it exists, and enjoy it very much when I have some with my friends.
All praise Beer!! Yes!
I get where you are coming from with the 'know it exists' thing. but I personally try to avoid that argument. Too often I hear theists say "I don't believe in god. I know he exists!", as if such a statement somehow gives their belief more credibility.
Everything we 'know' may or may not in fact be true, and is really a belief. Perhaps based on evidence, sound principles and personal observation, but still a belief. For contradictory evidence may yet present itself, there can be exceptions to principles, and we are imperfect beings, whose observational powers are questionable, as are our memories.
Especially after a few beers ... Cheers! :-)
this is a beautiful reply to your question:

As a gritty, grimy and very bloody dystopian sci-fi movie, Dredd is a little bit of a weird choice for 3D, which usually accompanies children's films or the kinds of adventures that are supposed to sweep you away to another world, not disturb you to your core. When a movie is very deliberately aiming to be a midnight madness kind of thing, is 3D really going to enhance it?
That's what we aim to figure out with this, the latest installment of our To 3D or not to 3D series. Before you go see Dredd this weekend, look at our point-by-point breakdown of the movie's 3D effects, to figure out whether or not it's worth that extra ticket cost. This isn't a review of the movie itself-- you can go here for that-- but instead an impartial guide to help you make the most of your cash at the movies this weekend.
Is 3D A Fit?
On one level, Dredd doesn't make all that much sense for 3D at all, a gritty action movie with limited CGI effects and an aesthetic that's deliberately trying to echo grindhouse classics from the past-- not at all what you associate with shiny, modern 3D. But then director Pete Travis introduces "slo-mo" and the 3D comes into focus; there are many scenes in the film slowed down to a crawl to emphasize the effects of a drug called Slo-Mo, and the amount of things flying through the air in those moments merit the 3D more than you might expect.
Fit Score: 4/5
Advance Planning and Effort
Shot with the RED digital 3D camera, the same one used for Resident Evil: Retribution, Dredd was clearly planned with 3D in mind from the very start, and you have to imagine that was part of why they included so many elaborate 3D sequences. Josh dinged Resident Evil for using the RED instead of fancier 3D setups, but the RED is a perfectly strong camera, and Travis's decision to shoot in 3D alone is worthy enough to a perfect score here.
P&E Score: 5/5
Beyond The Window
This is the category where we usually get to praise 3D movies set on a giant scale, where the added dimension can make it feel like you're looking through a window into an expansive world beyond-- you know, like with big landscapes or epic battle scenes. But Dredd, aside from a few establishing shots across the bombed-out Mega City One, is located almost entirely in a contained space, and just never has that sense of depth. There are a few moments of impressive depth, largely in scenes when a character is falling from a great height, but Dredd is much more invested in feeling contained, and they rarely take advantage of this really impressive ability of 3D.
Beyond the Window Score: 2/5
Before The Window
The thing people usually think of when they think of 3D-- when objects or people or fireballs fly out of the screen at you-- is what we call "before the window," where everything pops out into your own space a bit. This is where Dredd's 3D is most lacking, and it's not for lack of trying; in the slo-mo scenes there are frequently things like water or blood or even dust flying around in front of the camera, and you'd expect them to feel a little removed from the surface of the screen, but they're not. I'm not sure if this is just a limit of shooting everything practically-- maybe you need CGI water droplets to make them really come at you?-- or Travis wanting to make the 3D not quite so gimmicky, but it feels like a real loss with so many slo-mo scenes just emphasizing what's not coming at you.
Before the Window Score: 1/5

How to Act Like an SEO Expert: Four mistakes to avoid when performing SEO experiments
In yesterday's post I explained my creative process for uncovering new and interesting search marketing ideas. In this post I want to focus on the other critical element toward becoming an expert: endless experimentation. Of course testing must be done carefully to avoid arriving at the wrong conclusions, which will bring us to another of my favorite topics: human error.
As I like to do, let me explain my process with an actual example.
Last month there was an interesting post on SEOmoz about session IDs and HTTP cookies. In the post, Rand asserted that search engines don't support cookies, and it's therefore another alternative to controlling robot access to a site. Very clever; I don't know how I didn't think about that first! 🙂
Well, in the comments, King questioned the validity of the original assumption that search engines don't accept cookies. Here is what he had to say:
I'm not sure its [sic] really true that search engines (Google at least) don't accept cookies. I recently (well 6 months ago) created a site that checks for cookies before allowing customers access to the shopping cart. If cookies are disabled it sends the user to a[n] info page on the topic Google indexed the actual shopping cart page perfectly well, they totally bypassed the "cookie info" page, and never indexed that at all. Cookie checking was done entirely via PHP code.
For a while I have assumed that Google does not support cookies, but the truth is that search engines are constantly being improved and have evolved over the years. For instance, years ago search engine crawlers did not follow links embedded in JavaScript, but recent experiments have proven that at least Google does follow the less intricate ones.
So, this was a perfect candidate for a simple experiment. Let's confirm whether search engines accept cookies or not. As best I can, I like to follow the scientific method. Read more

Rangers continue to power past O's
Baltimore continues slide, falls to Texas
Adrian Beltre went 4 for 4 with two homers and a season-high five RBIs to help the surging Texas Rangers beat the Baltimore Orioles 8-4 Tuesday night.
Beltre hit a solo shot in the second inning and a three-run drive in the fifth, both off Zach Britton (2-3). Beltre has six home runs in his last six games and is batting .488 (21 for 43) during an 11-game hitting streak that began on June 28.
Beltre also singled in the fourth, received an intentional walk in the seventh and delivered an RBI single in the ninth. The two homers gave him 20 for the season.
Martin Perez (3-1) allowed four runs, two earned, and six hits in six-plus innings for the Rangers.

I've always been one of those people who wrote out new goals or resolutions at the start of a New Year. It's something that my family always did growing up and I just never thought about NOT doing it once I was on my own with my own family. Until this year. This is the first year I didn't actually sit down and make a list of things I wanted to do or have happen this year. And you know what? It feels great.
I realized that for all these years that I was writing out a goal list, I never really gave it a second thought past the first day of the year. It would get shuffled to the bottom of a pile of papers and then eventually thrown away. That wasn't doing me any good and so my goals weren't being accomplished.
This year I decided to do something a little different. Do I have goals I want to accomplish this year? Absolutely! But I'm going about it differently than I have in the past. I am taking a more day by day approach to get me where I want to be in the long run.
I'm working on myself. I'm focusing on being more intentional in things I do and in being happy where I am. That doesn't mean I don't have hopes and dreams for the year, I do, but I'm just hoping that by focusing more on the here and now I will be more successful.
There are a few areas I'm focusing on more this year. Things that I have been thinking about for quite sometime, but I always felt that if I started them I wouldn't be able to finish and then I would feel bad about myself so I just never started to begin with. That's no good. So, I'm holding myself accountable to doing things that I know I need to do. If I fail, I fail. And then I will get back up and try again.
For a while now, I've been feeling like I needed to get back to my roots if you will. I am a Christian, but I don't go to church. I don't read the bible. I do pray occasionally. Something that I've been feeling I need to do is to stop being a Christian in name only. Start living it more. So I started the #shereadstruth plan. It is a daily plan, which helps me keep myself accountable because it's totally doable and realistic when things are broken down to what I need to do daily instead of looking at the bigger picture of what I want over the year.
One of the other areas I am wanting to improve is photography. So I'm doing the FatMumSlim photoaday on Instagram...again. I always do good for the first week and then I slack off. So I'm working on it day by day. It makes me happy to take pictures.
If there is one area I feel I can always use more work in, it's as a mom. I'm doing a 30 day mom challenge with my BFF - Harmony. Everyday there is a challenge and we remind each other to do it and are helping to keep each other honest, if it doesn't go so well, we tell the other. But we are also there to celebrate our successes on the days we nail it. We'd love to have more moms join us, so let us know if you want in on the challenge!
Hopefully this new way of doing things will help me to be more successful in reaching the goals I do have for the year.

The anticipation of a new baby brings a lot of joy and excitement — and a lot of new decisions. One of the most important decisions is choosing a facility and staff that puts the patient first. Fauquier Health offers an unmatched quality of care and programs that has made it one of the top-rated Northern Virginia birthing centers.
The O'Shaughnessy Family Birthing Center at Fauquier Health offers the very best in maternity and delivery care. Our state of the art birthing center serves much of Northern Virginia – including Warrenton, Bull Run and Haymarket. We look at each birth as a natural, normal and uniquely personal event, and our expert caring staff treats each family with the dignity and respect they deserve.
Intermediate Care Nursery Renovated and Expanded
is the nursery's new medical director.
One of the new Intermediate Care Nursery beds
The nursery operates under the guidance of neonatologist Dr. Elsie Mainali, the nursery's new medical director. Rodger Baker, CEO of Fauquier Health, said, "Having a neonatologist overseeing the nursery is providing a level of care beyond what we have been able to provide in the past."
Dr. Mainali and neonatal nurse practitioners will provide ongoing bedside care for babies who need extra attention until they are strong enough to reunite with their families.
Once a new mom checks in, she remains in the same room to labor, deliver, recover and relax in after her baby is born. There is no shuffling from place to place, and our moms never have to compromise comfort for the highest quality of medical care. Our center features the latest medical equipment in a comfortable, homelike setting, and there is also a dedicated surgical suite just steps from the private birthing rooms, just in case there is a need for a different level of care.
Our family birthing center also supports families during this very special time. We understand the importance of bonding right from the start, and our new mothers and fathers are encouraged to spend as much time as possible with their babies. Each spacious suite is designed for the newborn to remain in the room with mom, and there is an additional bed in the room for dad, or other care partner.

Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. leaves Mayo Clinic
CHICAGO -- Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. left the Mayo Clinic on Tuesday after his second treatment for bipolar disorder there, but it remained unclear where the congressman was going or whether he planned to return to work in Washington.
Mayo spokesman Nick Hanson said Jackson left the Minnesota hospital Tuesday but he did not know where he was going.
Neither Jackson's congressional spokesman, his publicist nor his father could immediately be reached for comment.
Jackson returned to the hospital in October amid reports that he faced a new federal investigation into potential misuse of his campaign finances. The Chicago Sun-Times first reported the probe, citing anonymous sources.
An FBI spokesman in Washington, Andrew Ames, told The Associated Press he could neither confirm nor deny the existence of federal investigation into Jackson.
The congressman remains under a House ethics committee investigation into his dealings with imprisoned former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich.
Jackson, 47, disappeared in June, and it was later revealed that he was being treated at the Mayo Clinic for bipolar disorder and gastrointestinal issues. He returned to his Washington home in September, but went back to the clinic the next month.
His father, the Rev. Jesse Jackson, said then that his son had not yet "regained his balance."
Jackson was easily elected Nov. 6 to a ninth full term representing his heavily-Democratic Chicago area district, even though he had barely appeared in public since going on medical leave and his only campaigning was a robocall asking voters for patience. He spent election night at the clinic.
Jackson later issued a statement thanking his supporters and saying he was waiting for his doctors' OK before he could "continue to be the progressive fighter" they'd known for years.
On Tuesday, Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn became the latest elected official to urge Jackson to speak publicly about his condition. Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel called on Jackson on Monday to let constituents know his postelection plans.
The U.S. House was meeting Tuesday for the first time since before the election, and votes were scheduled for Tuesday night. It was not clear whether Jackson would be there.
The son of a famed civil rights leader, Jackson's name once was mentioned as a possible future Chicago mayor or senator. But his career has stumbled since he was linked to the Blagojevich corruption saga in 2009.
The House Ethics Committee is investigating reports that Jackson and his associates discussed raising money for Blagojevich in exchange for the then-governor appointing Jackson to President Barack Obama's former senate seat. Blagojevich is now imprisoned on corruption charges, including having tried to sell the seat.

Ferguson's Experience Offers Lessons on Integration
Moves to Stem 'White Flight' Only Helped Fuel City's Racial and Political Tensions
FERGUSON, Mo.—Sharon Golliday grew up in the Pruett-Igoe public housing project in St. Louis, a high-rise complex so violent that even the police were afraid to enter. (Latest:Ferguson police officer not charged in black teen's shooting).
So like many African-Americans, she and her family took advantage of a sea change in federal housing policy in the 1980s and 90s that came to regard projects as part of the problem. Using a government voucher to subsidize the cost, they eventually landed in this suburb....

Cutting and Installing Crown Moulding
I helped Megan Fitzpatrick install the crown moulding on the case-on-case bookshelf that's featured in the December issue of Popular Woodworking. Here's how I do it:
When I have a large enough flat surface available, the first thing I do is turn the carcase over so that I have two flat surfaces against to reference , the carcase and the workbench top (or floor) .
Now, begin with the front run of moulding. With it inverted at your miter saw, cut one end. Take a piece of the cutoff and reverse the just-cut angle to create a mating piece. Position your front moulding at the case and align the two mitered ends to form your corner. Use a couple spring clamps to hold the front in place, tight to the carcase.
Slide down to the opposite end and mark the cutline flush with your case side (also mark the cut angle so you don't get confused at the miter saw).
Swing the saw to the correct 45Ã?º angle and cut at the line. It's best to sneak up on the line if you can. Your front moulding should be ready to install.
Back at the piece, position the front piece with the scrap to again set the corner, add spring clamps, then check the fit of the second corner , a second scrap needs to be cut to make the fit. If everything checks out, use brads to attach your front piece. Nail into both the case and the top.
Cut two pieces for the return moulding (on for each side) and cut opposing 45�º angles on each piece. Fit those to the front piece and mark the cutline at the back of the case. These cuts are at 90�º. With the return moulding fit and sized, add a small amount of glue to the 45�º cuts and install the pieces to complete your mouldings.
Wow! Thanks, Glen, that really helps a lot. Any chance of an article on this anytime soon?

BEIJING (Reuters) - U.S. Vice President Joe Biden told Chinese President Xi Jinping on Wednesday that relations between the two countries must be built on trust.
Biden, speaking in Beijing's Great Hall of the People, added that Xi is a candid person, and that candor generates trust which is the basis for real change.
His visit comes as Beijing's decision to declare an air defense identification zone in an area that includes disputed islands has triggered protests from the United States, Japan and South Korea.
The issue dominated Biden's talks in Tokyo on Tuesday.

Hideko Tachibana has helpled the Crimson to a 4-3 start during the dual portion of the 2011-12 season (photo courtesy Gil Talbot).
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. –The Harvard women's tennis team will take its three-match winning streak to Orlando, Fla., this weekend for matches against Iowa and Central Florida. The Crimson will take on the Hawkeyes March 17 before meeting the Golden Knights March 18 as part of its spring break trip.
The Crimson (4-3) has won three straight after victories over Boston University, Furman and St. John's at the Murr Center. Harvard rounded out its five-match home stand with a 3-2 record and is back over .500 for the first time since being 1-0 after winning its opener against UMass. The Crimson is led on the singles side by Camille Jania, who sits at 5-0 in 2012, and the doubles tandem of Kristin Norton and Hideko Tachibana. Harvard's top doubles pair is off to a 5-2 start in dual matches and is 12-4 overall this season.
In the Rankings
Norton and Tachibana are ranked No. 33 among doubles teams according to the Intercollegiate Tennis Association rankings released March 13. The juniors are 12-4 in 2011-12, including a 5-2 mark during dual matches. Norton and Tachibana have played at No. 1 doubles in each of Harvard's first seven matches.
No. 73 Iowa
Iowa (5-5), which has played ranked opponents during four straight matches, is on a two-match skid since beating No. 38 DePaul, 5-2, March 4. Senior Sonja Molnar leads the Hawkeyes with a 7-3 record in individual dual match contests. Molnar, a unanimous first team all-Big Ten selection last year, started the 2011-12 season ranked No. 65 in the ITA singles poll.
Central Florida
The Golden Knights (4-8) have played a challenging schedule as of late with two of its last three matches coming against top ten opponents. UCF was swept by No. 10 Tennessee and No. 3 Duke and beat Michigan State, 5-2, over its last three matchups. Senior Taylor Dubins leads Central Florida with an 11-9 mark in singles play, while pairing with classmate Andrea Yacaman for a team-best 10-8 record in doubles action.
Up Next
Harvard travels to the state of Virginia to visit William & Mary March 24 and Old Dominion March 25 to conclude the non-conference schedule. The Crimson hosts Cornell April 6 to open its Ivy League schedule.

Phase One officially announced this morning it is releasing Capture One Pro 7, a new version of its digital imaging and asset management software that features a new processing engine and several new tools including Live View support for selected digital SLRs.
Phase One Capture One Pro 7 is available now for Mac OS X and Windows at www.phaseone.com/store for $299.
For a complete list of new features in Capture One Pro 7, go here.

Phase One Releases Capture One Pro 7
New Processing Engine Drives an Image Quality Revolution
COPENHAGEN, October 25, 2012 — Phase One, the world's leader in open-platform, high-end camera systems and solutions, today released Capture One Pro 7. Capture One Pro is the advanced digital imaging software for professional photographers who require superior image quality, maximum workflow efficiency and the flexibility to work the way they want to work.
Capture One Pro 7 is a major release built on a new processing engine with new and advanced professional tools that dramatically boost out-of-the-box image quality, offering exquisite detail and color rendition. Powerful digital asset management functionality, derived from years of technical expertise built into the Media Pro catalog system, has been added to offer more options to select, search and organize image files. And the world's most advanced tethering shooting solution now includes Live View support for selected DSLRs.
"Phase One engineers have unique advantages in developing image processing software: their high-end digital hardware expertise, their enduring passion for perfection and their collaboration with some of the world's best photographers," said Linda K. Poulsen, Software Marketing Director, Phase One.
"Image quality is always our prime directive," said Niels V. Knudsen, Vice President of Innovation and Application Development, Phase One's popular 'Image Quality Professor.' "We are proud to introduce what we believe is the world's best professional imaging software, and we wish to thank photographers around the globe for inspiring us to meet their needs for high quality images with a natural look and feel."
A Revolution in Image Quality
Advancements in the Capture One raw processing engine yield vastly more accurate rendition of details and colors. While medium format camera systems with Capture One Pro achieve the highest-level results, DSLR users will see stellar performance from their cameras too. A highly advanced noise reduction algorithm has been added that gives stunning performance at even high ISO levels. Precision adjustment tools offer greatly enhanced dynamic range for astonishing details in both shadows and highlights, reveal fine details and structure, reduce the effect of haze and give images a more three-dimensional look and add local contrast and saturation to images for extra punch. The new OpenCL implementation yields faster browsing and higher-speed image processing.
Powerful Digital Asset Management
Next to the familiar and proven sessions approach, Capture One Pro users can now organize their image files via comprehensive and flexible catalogs. Incorporating powerful digital asset management features found in Media Pro, they can work with multiple catalogs at the same time; share catalogs with other users; switch between different catalogs without relaunching; easily tag images for later search and retrieval; and browse and adjust images when the original images files are offline.
Workflow Advances
From capture to final output, Capture One Pro 7 has been optimized for efficiency. Capture One Pro's support for instant tethered shooting is renowned for its ease (just plug in and shoot) with both medium format and high-end DSLR cameras. Now Live View is available for selected DSLRs aiding composition and critical focus.
Capture One Pro 7 has a selection of default lens profiles that can be chosen to automatically correct any unwanted optical issues. Capture One Pro 7 speeds delivery of final image files to clients and colleagues in whatever format, size, or resolution they need.
For a complete list of new and advanced features, please go to http://www.phaseone.com/en/Image-Software.aspx
Pricing and Availability
Phase One Capture One Pro 7 is available now for Mac OS X and Windows online at www.phaseone.com/store and from Phase One Partners. The price is 299 USD and 229 EUR. Owners of Capture One Pro 3/4/5/6 may upgrade for 99 USD and 69 EUR. Owners of Capture One Express may upgrade to Capture One Pro 7 for 249 USD and 199 EUR. For customers who have purchased Capture One Pro 6 since September 26, 2012, Phase One is offering a grace period, exempting them from the upgrade fee.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A highly anticipated fall summit between President Barack Obama and Russian President Vladimir Putin could become a casualty of Moscow's defiant decision to grant temporary asylum to National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden, the White House signaled Thursday after weeks of pressuring and pleading for his return to face prosecution.
Russia's decision "is not a positive development," White House spokesman Jay Carney said.
"We are extremely disappointed that the Russian government would take this step despite our very clear and lawful requests in public and in private to have Mr. Snowden expelled to the United States to face the charges against him," Carney said.
Obama is scheduled to go to Russia in September for the Group of 20 economic summit in St. Petersburg and also stop in Moscow for one-on-one talks Putin. The White House alternately has demanded that Russia return Snowden while also saying it doesn't want his case to negatively impact relations with Moscow.
Asked whether Obama would still travel to Moscow, Carney said pointedly, "We are evaluating the utility of a summit."
There was a strong reaction from some lawmakers.
"Russia's action today is a disgrace and a deliberate effort to embarrass the United States. It is a slap in the face of all Americans," Republican Sens. John McCain of Arizona and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina said in a joint statement. "Now is the time to fundamentally rethink our relationship with Putin's Russia."
The senators suggested expanding U.S. sanctions against Russians accused of human rights violations, completing U.S. missile defense programs based in Europe, and moving quickly on another round of NATO expansion to include the Republic of Georgia.
A top Democrat, Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York, said Obama should recommend moving the G-20 summit. Long before Thursday's decision, Graham suggested the U.S. boycott the Winter Olympics taking place next year in Sochi, Russia.
"Russia has stabbed us in the back, and each day that Mr. Snowden is allowed to roam free is another twist of the knife," Schumer said.
Carney declined to speculate about what steps, if any, the U.S. might take in response. He noted the complicated and wide-ranging relationship between the two countries and suggested the U.S. also is reluctant to let Snowden's status become the source of further deterioration.
The U.S. and Russia already disagree on a host of issues, including the civil war in Syria, where Moscow is one of Syrian President Bashar Assad's key supporters and the U.S. is backing anti-Assad rebel forces.
"There is no question that there are a range of issues, setting aside the disposition of Mr. Snowden, on which we are currently in disagreement with Russia," Carney said.
Snowden left the transit zone of a Moscow airport and officially entered Russia after authorities granted him asylum for one year, his lawyer said Thursday. Snowden had been camped out at the airport for more than a month since he arrived there from Hong Kong on June 23.
The U.S. had demanded that Russia send him home to face prosecution for revealing details about secret U.S. electronic surveillance programs. But the two countries have no extradition treaty and Putin dismissed the requests, despite saying he didn't want the Snowden issue to hamper relations with the U.S.
Carney said the U.S. was not told of the decision ahead of time.
Andrew Weiss, a former director of Russian affairs in the Clinton administration, said the Russians had sought an Obama visit so they could portray Putin as an important player on the world stage. But he said it now seems "all but inevitable" that Obama will have to cancel at least part of his trip to Russia in response.
"So something they really wanted, which was the president of the United States there in Moscow, now seems to be in jeopardy" because of Snowden, Weiss said.
Jeffery Mankoff, deputy director and fellow with the Russia and Eurasia program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said the meeting should go on because of the other important issues on the table.
"All of these things are kind of sitting there in the bilateral relationship and really need a top-level push to get anywhere," Mankoff said. "Having that kind of meeting would be conducive to getting some of that agenda moving."
