Heavy September rainfalls, which drenched New Mexico's heralded chili pepper crop just prior to harvest, damaged about 30 percent of the chilies due in part to higher levels of phytophthora root rot disease or chili wilt.
"The 2006 chili pepper season started fantastic but then we had one of those one-hundred year rains," said Stephanie Walker, extension vegetable specialist with the New Mexico State University Cooperative Extension Service. "The crop made it through the first couple of rains but the last big rain really increased the chili wilt.
"After a series of rainfalls, the phytophthora organisms were building up in the soil. Every time it rained, flooded furrows would lead to phytophthora spores swimming to additional plants and spreading the infection. Once a chili plant is infected, there is no way to cure it," she noted.
Pepper fields in eastern New Mexico suffered less damage. While hail caused some injury near Deming on the west side, the central growing region was hit the worst including the area around Hatch, the proclaimed chili pepper capital of the world.
"Growers were doing a great job keeping fields drained. But the last wave really hurt them. Every field was affected but some fields have been devastated by chili wilt," Walker said.
An early drop in temperatures added insult to injury. "Normally red chilies would be drying down in the field for processing. The chilies are still very succulent. So while red chili processors are trying to start dehydration now, they are having problems because the pods are too wet."
Beet curly top virus has stunted plants to reduce or eliminate pepper growth. Transmitted by the beet leafhopper, the disease causes leaves to turn yellow, curl upward, twist and pucker. The roots eventually die.
"The problem with curly top is that the leafhopper can land on the leaf," said John White, Extension agent with the NMSU CES. "The first thing he does is stick his mouth part in the leaf. He might die a second later from insecticide but he has injected the viral toxin."
Leafhopper numbers can grow quickly on summer weeds and survive on winter annual weeds such as mustards. While integrated pest management has been successful in pest and disease fights, Walker said systemic insecticides like Admire, Platinum and Platinum Ridomil Gold have allowed growers to reduce leafhopper populations to save the crop. Some growers salvaged their crop with insecticides but it was spotty. Some areas were simply overwhelmed by leafhopper populations, Walker said.
"We also had luck with Surround, an organically approved kaolin clay suspension product sprayed on the foliage," she said. It looks like powder and makes the plant appear whitewashed. Preliminary research shows leafhoppers recoil from the strange-looking chili plant.
"Surround must be applied frequently because rain washes it off," Walker said. "As the growing plant creates new foliage, reapplication is required. The product is very labor intensive but seems to be effective."
While 80 percent of red chilies are machine harvested, the green and cayenne crops are 100 percent hand-harvested. Growers are experiencing a 40 percent to 50 percent labor shortfall this harvest season, Walker said.
"Even current insufficient levels of labor probably cut about 25 percent off growers' profits. As to the full impact the labor shortage will have, it's too early to tell," she said. "Many growers who were not able to pick their green crop will try to find a home for the chili as a red crop. Because of the impact of chili wilt on the red crop, many of these growers may be able to find a buyer for their red chili."
Walker said some chilies would not be picked because of the labor shortage. Continuing labor supply frustrations and other issues cause some growers to ponder an exit from the chili industry, possibly to cotton that is 100 percent mechanized. Others are looking at pecans and alfalfa.
At times referred to as the "chili lady," Walker's family roots are not buried in agriculture — her father was a physicist. Her research efforts stretch across several acres of NMSU's Leyendecker Plant Science Center in Las Cruces. Her current doctorate dissertation work is focused on developing improved chili varieties that harvest more efficiently by machine — efforts to further negate the need for hand laborers. She's even toyed with mechanization for green chilies.
In recent years, a chili taskforce comprised of industry leaders, growers and university personnel has focused on furthering improvements in red chili harvesters and creating a machine to pick green chilies and cayennes. The group has endorsed Walker's breeding research.
In 2005, New Mexico's chili pepper industry included 17,000-planted acres of which 16,200 were harvested, according to the National Agricultural Statistics Service. Chili production value was pegged at $46.9 million. New Mexico chili production 20 years ago covered 35,000 acres. According to White and Walker, New Mexico's major chili producing counties include Luna, Hidalgo, Dona Ana and Chavis.
In a normal year, each acre yields 22 tons to 24 tons of green chilies (about two pickings) and 3,000 to 3,500 dry pounds for red chilies. New Mexico acreage breaks down to 40 percent for red chilies, 30 percent for green and 30 percent for cayenne.
The green chili harvest ends with the first freeze. The red harvest can continue into January.

A Series
DC Tachometers
DC Tachometers with output signal between 1 and 10 volts/1000 rpm
from $298.00/ea
A-Series tachs are designed for use in applications requiring an output signal between 1 and 10 volts/1000 rpm. The units come in three basic configurations-instrument, industrial, and automotive.
Instrument Type
The low-cost high-performance instrument generator has a 0.120"-diameter shaft for direct drive. It is ideally suited to instrumentation applications.
Industrial Type
The industrial generator is designed for use in more rugged applications. The heavier shaft, 0.187" and special front-end ball bearing allow the unit to operate under heavier radial loads such as those found in pulley and belt drives. On many models, an enclosure on the terminal end protects the electrical connections against adverse environmental conditions.
Automotive Type
Automotive generators' SAE mounting allows for direct replacement of mechanical tachometers. The units also feature a flexible output shaft, to compensate for possible misalignment due to direct coupling.

The program in Comparative Literature and the History of Ideas provides an opportunity for interdisciplinary and comparative study. Like the Humanities major, it brings together courses from many departments, but here the student will choose courses which center in at least two literary, cultural and intellectual traditions and which seek to get at the underlying assumptions and attitudes of different literary and intellectual worlds. The goals of the program are to enable students to see from a variety of viewpoints and perspectives and to encourage independent, critical thinking. Further, by emphasizing the critical analysis of primary texts and cultural comparison, the program seeks to foster a sense of the importance of rigorous methodology in investigation, while revealing the inherent limitations of any particular system of inquiry. As a unique approach to liberal and humanistic studies, the program provides a solid basis for post-graduate study in, for example, law, education, journalism, administration, comparative literature, or discipline-based area studies.
Requirements for the Comparative Literature and the History of Ideas Major (12 Credits)
This program is a contract major in which the student and his/her advisor(s) together establish a program that closely meets the student's needs. Students are strongly encouraged to ground their studies in the literature and thought of a particular foreign language area and to work out their entire program by the end of their sophomore year.
Twelve courses are required for completion of the major, including:
- CLHI 250 Introduction to Comparative Literature (1)
- CLHI 497W World Literature Senior Seminar (1)
- Ten additional courses (10)
The student will take four courses in each of two language/culture areas. At least one area must be from a non-English speaking tradition (e.g., Chinese, French, German, Greek, Japanese, Latin, Russian, or Spanish). The student should attempt, in so far as possible, to enroll in parallel courses in the different areas (i.e., courses that cover the same time period or that have a similar thematic focus). Of the four courses in a non-English area, one can be a course taught in translation. All courses, whether in English or the target language, must cover literary and/or intellectual traditions; upper division language courses (such as Composition and Discussion) will not satisfy the language/culture area requirements.
The student will take two electives, related to either the language/culture areas, or time period, or theme of specialization. These electives will include the history courses most appropriate to the areas.
No more than five courses in the major may be below the 300 level.
Indicators of Achievement
The Student Learning Outcomes of the Comparative Literature and the History of Ideas Program include:
- Fundamentals of Literature and Culture
- Students will develop an active understanding of the terminology, categories and concepts used in literary and cultural studies.

BAMAKO, Mali (AP) — Dozens of Tuareg rebels have returned to the troubled north Malian town of Kidal, prompting concerns about further unrest, residents said Friday.
Meanwhile, a mortar shell fell near a Malian military camp, underscoring the security risks that remain even after the French-led military intervention ousted al-Qaida-linked militants from the major towns in the region.
The secular Tuareg rebels have regained prominence since the jihadists were forced from power, and have maintained their grip over the town of Kidal. On Thursday, they handed over keys for the town's administrative buildings to members of the U.N. peacekeeping mission so that the Malian government can now take them over.
Even as they fulfilled a promise to relinquish the buildings, residents reported an increased armed presence in Kidal of the Tuareg group, known as the National Movement for the Liberation of the Azawad or NMLA.
"Yesterday NMLA fighters arrived in a column of five vehicles and each vehicle had about 10 men inside," Kidal resident Madou Alhousseini told The Associated Press.
NMLA spokesman Mossa Ag Attaher, though, denied that the rebels were stepping up their armed presence. He said they were there "rather to strengthen contacts between NMLA members outside Kidal and those inside the town."
The Tuareg rebels have sought independence from Mali for decades and launched their latest rebellion in early 2012. After being sidelined by the jihadists, they regained control of Kidal earlier this year, even as other northern cities were retaken by the Malian military.
Malian soldiers ultimately returned in time for the July presidential election and subsequent runoff, though participation in Kidal was meager.
The dispute over the administrative buildings has prompted protest in Kidal, and fears of insecurity have been further compounded by suspicion that Islamic extremists have returned. The killing earlier this month of two French radio journalists in the area highlighted the perilous security situation.
Elsewhere in the north, mortar shells fell near a military camp in Menaka in the country's northeast. Suspicion immediately fell on MUJAO, a radical al-Qaida-linked jihadist group that has claimed responsibility for a series of attacks in the Gao region since its ouster from power.
A Malian security official stationed in the region, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to journalists, said there had been no victims in the attack early Friday.

Construction closes off parking spots
PORTLAND, Maine —
Gas line work in Portland's Old Port is part of an upgrade that will allow more buildings in the downtown to switch over to natural gas.
Although the work by Unitil has closed down many parking spaces, the effort is on schedule and should be finished before the start of tourist season.
"So far we are on time. We're working closely with city officials... part of the plan of the project this year ... would be the Old Port area in the beginning of the spring. Our goal is to have our work in the downtown area done by Memorial Day and right now we are on schedule," Alec O'Meara of Unitil said.
The project is part of a planned 14-year effort to update the city's natural gas lines. This is the third year of the project.

After my great grandfather came to the US (California and Nevada) in the early 1800's, he settled in Lovelock, Nevada. In the early 1900's he went back to China and returned to Nevada. He gave a 24K gold Chinese pin to my grandfather, who then gave it to my father in the early 1950's.
This pin shows the 1st flag of China pre-revolution, during the KMT or Kuomintang era and post Qing Dynasty. This flag became Taiwan's flag in1945. The other flag is specific to Sun Yat-sen and KMT.
It is heavy, soft/pure 24K gold. There is a large opal in the center of the two flags and a large piece of jade on one of the flags.
It's 2.5 inches wide from the outer edge of one flag to the outer edge of the other flag and 1.75 inches high from tip to tip of the flags. It is just shy of an ounce and VERY SOFT 24K Chinese gold, about as pure as it gets.
Details of what I do know:
THIS IS A RARE 24K SOLID GOLD - Qing Dynasty & 1st National Movement of China, Historically Significant Flags of China (Qing/KMT)
Gold, Jade & Opal Pin w/Seal
This special piece was given to my great-grandfather from my great-great-grandfather when he returned to China to "die there". My great-grandfather returned to the China to visit his father one last time and came back in the early 1920's to Nevada. He gave my grandfather ("Frank Yee" born around 1892 and married to "Lillian Tom") this very historical 24K gold Chinese pin or brooch, who then gave it to my mother and father in the early 1950's. I inherited it from them after their passing in 1986 and 1988.
"This piece is Chuk Kam (Cantonese) or ??, as stamped on the back, which means pure gold, literally "full gold", as detailed at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carat_%28purity%29#Chinese_Gold_Standards"
This pin shows the first flag of the National Movement or Kuomintang of China, also known as the Chinese Nationalist Party (or KMT) and one of the dominant parties of the early Republic of China that planned and succeeded in the overthrow of the Qing Dynasty (sometimes called the "Ching Dynasty"). The Kuomintang traces its ideological and organizational roots to the work of Sun Yat-sen, a proponent of Chinese nationalism, which was based on the Three Principles of the People.
The pin is heavy, a little over 1 troy ounce of 24kt, soft and very pure Chinese gold, with two flags, jade and opal. It dates pre-1912, indicated by the flag on the right represents the Qing Dynasty. The flag on the left is the first flag of the Chinese Nationalist Party and eventually became Taiwan's flag in 1945.
The symbolism of the pin goes from right to left, from the Qing Dynasty flag to the Chinese Nationalist Party's flag, which was Sun Yat-sen's way of showing respect to the Qing Dynasty, even though he was opposed to it and part of the overthrow.
There is a large beautifully colored opal in the center of the two flags and a piece of very old and richly colored jade centered on the Qing Dynasty flags. The pin is 2.5 inches wide from the outer edge of one flag to the outer edge of the other flag and 1.75 inches high from tip to tip of the flags. The stamp on the back, in Chinese, states "pure gold" and you can have any jeweler or historians that can translate Chinese verify that for you.
Search the internet for Sun Yat-sen, Kuomintang, List of Chinese Flags, Flags of China, History of Flags in China or Flags of the Republic of China for historical details.
I look forward to anyone shedding some more light on this piece...
Thank you!!!

NEW YORK (AP) — A federal judge on Monday authorized the Internal Revenue Service to require UBS AG to produce records about U.S. taxpayers who may hold bank accounts in Switzerland to evade hundreds of millions in federal income taxes.
U.S. District Judge William H. Pauley III signed an order authorizing the IRS to issue a summons for information about U.S. taxpayers who may hold accounts at the Swiss bank Wegelin & Co. and other Switzerland-based banks.
Wegelin has no U.S. branches but uses a UBS account to conduct business here, which is why the order applies to UBS.
U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said the summons was "the latest step in our efforts to identify and prosecute U.S. taxpayers who think they can evade their legal responsibility to pay taxes by secreting their money away in anonymous off-shore accounts at Wegelin and other banks, and to recover hundreds of millions of dollars that is owed to the IRS."
Wegelin pleaded guilty Jan. 3 to conspiring with at least 100 U.S. taxpayers to hide more than $1.2 billion in secret Swiss bank accounts from 2002 to 2011, agreeing to pay $74 million in all, including fines and restitution. At the time, prosecutors said Wegelin in 2008 and 2009 opened and serviced dozens of new accounts for U.S. taxpayers as it tried to capture clients lost by UBS after word surfaced that that UBS was being investigated for helping U.S. taxpayers evade taxes and hide assets in Swiss bank accounts.
Wegelin employees told U.S. taxpayer-clients that their undeclared accounts would not be disclosed to U.S. authorities because the bank had a long tradition of secrecy, prosecutors said. They added that the employees persuaded U.S. taxpayer-clients to move money from UBS to Wegelin by claiming that, unlike UBS, Wegelin did not have offices outside of Switzerland and would be less vulnerable to U.S. law enforcement.
Wegelin, headquartered in St. Gallen, Switzerland, said in a statement at the time of the plea that it had cooperated with the probe "within the bounds allowed for by Swiss law" since learning that it was under U.S. investigation.
A message left with a lawyer for UBS for comment was not immediately returned.

Oneida County Department on Aging bus hopes to expand routes
Submitted: 12/27/2013
- It can get more difficult to move around when you get older. That makes trips to the grocery store or doctor tougher. But the Oneida County Department on Aging can help. Right now, the department's bus takes seniors and adults with disabilities around Rhinelander. The bus is also used by the general public for an extra fee. The department workers say most of the people using the bus wouldn't get around without it. Mary Boyer is the Nutrition and Transportation coordinator. "It helps our clients get to their doctor appointments, even hair appointments, coming here for nutrition, doing grocery shopping," said Boyer. "Pretty much anything that they need during those hours."The department wants to expand transportation options outside of Rhinelander. Forest County uses its funding to do that. Their route goes through Three Lakes, Sugar Camp and Rhinelander. "That's what they do with their money, they do that outlying thing. So it would nice if we could up go to Eagle River or Minocqua and transport people back and forth that way," said Boyer. "Not on a daily basis, but maybe every week, or every other week."Oneida county is trying to partner with Forest and Vilas counties. They hope to form a transit commission. That would mean more rides to more places, for everyone.

An Official Website of the Commonwealth of Kentucky
A new statewide Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Task Force convened by the Council on Postsecondary Education held its inaugural meeting in Frankfort on Dec. 19. The task force is chaired by Dr. Lee Todd, president of the University of Kentucky, and is charged with developing a statewide strategic action plan to accelerate Kentucky's performance within the STEM disciplines from preschool through graduate school (P-20).
"While Kentucky has several exemplary programs and initiatives within the STEM disciplines, statewide collaboration across various sectors is necessary to ensure that Kentucky develops the talentforce that drives knowledge economy jobs," said Tom Layzell, president of the Council on Postsecondary Education.
"At the state level, more needs to be done to strengthen the STEM pipeline and encourage a greater number of postsecondary graduates in STEM-related fields," Layzell added.
The task force is comprised of representatives from the executive and legislative branches of state government, postsecondary education, K-12 education, professionals within the STEM disciplines and the business community. The four sector groups (government, business, K-12, higher education) will meet separately to prepare sector reports that will form the basis of a final report.
The task force will also explore the critical relationship between STEM production and the knowledge economy of Kentucky. The task force will meet through March 2007 to finalize a report that will include recommendations and accountability measures. The report is expected to be released during the 2007 Legislative Session.
"We recognize that other states and countries are aggressively pursuing attainment within the STEM disciplines," stated Dr. Todd. "Kentucky must increase its productivity in these areas to remain competitive in the global economy."
The creation of the task force emerged from a recommendation of the CPE Research, Economic Development and Commercialization Policy Group chaired by John R. Hall, former chairman and CEO of Ashland, Inc.
"Kentucky's long-term competitiveness is directly linked to student attainment in the STEM disciplines," stated Hall.
For more information about the CPE STEM task force, visit http://cpe.ky.gov/committees/stem.
Kentucky's postsecondary and adult education system is improving the economic vitality of the commonwealth and the lives of Kentuckians. By raising educational attainment to the national average by 2020, Kentucky will attract higher wage and knowledge-based business and industry and the overall quality of life for Kentuckians will improve with higher incomes and levels of employment, better health, less obesity, more volunteerism and lower crime and public assistance rates.

Make sure it's at a super-slow-motion pace, because if they see movement, they'll take off. Provided it's not sharp movement, they'll tolerate it a bit. Even if they see soft movement, it puts them on soft alert vs. full-bore alert. Usually, you can get the gun up on the bird 90 percent of the time.

How To Be A Smart Trader (aka How To Win Disputes)
by, 09-10-2009 at 09:11 AM (2883 Views)
Lately there has been a rash of really bad decisions and really upset people because of their bad decisions. To that end I thought it might be a good idea to create a little "guide" on how to be a smart trader (and win disputes). These are the most common reasons that result in losing a dispute.
Keep Your Receipt!!
This is probably the single greatest "mistake" that i see. Something as simple as holding on to a postal receipt can mean the difference between winning and losing a dispute. By simply slipping it into you wallet or purse or putting it some place safe you can protect yourself from being expected to send something more if someone claims that they never received anything.
Personally, I have a little box that my bank checks came in sitting behind the computer monitor on my desk. When I get home from the post office I drop the receipt in the box. If later someone claims that they never received what I sent all I have to do is pull the receipt out of the box and scan it and Viola!! I have proof that I shipped.
For those of you that are wondering why I say keep your receipt and am not mentioning a Delivery Confirmation slip, the Dispute Team will accept a scan of a receipt as proof of shipping. So keep your receipt!!!
Safe Packaging Is A Must
This seems like a no-brainer but you wouldn't believe the number of disputes that I see where someone didn't put an extra 10 seconds of effort into safe shipping and they end up having to replace a damaged card.
A few tips for safer packaging:
* Don't use PWE. If you and your trade partner agree to use PWE then that is fine but you should be aware that you will be expected to replace cards that are damaged due to shipping in PWE.
* Tape the toploader shut. Packages get tossed around during shipping and cards slide out of toploaders and get bent and dinged in the package. By simply putting a piece of tape across the top of the toploader you can prevent this.
* Use extra padding. You can buy a roll of bubble wrap at WalMart for about $3 or you can reuse old padded envelopes to add a little extra padding to those hi-end cards and guarantee that they are safe from rough handling by the USPS workers.
Make MSF Traders Send First!!
Lately there has been an unbelievable amount of disputes in which veteran traders sent first/at the same time to Under 20 MSF traders and they get nothing in return. Let me say this as clearly as I can. If you ignore the MSF tag and send first anyway, YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN.
This may seem harsh but it is SCF policy. We put the MSF tag there to protect you. If you ignore it and send first anyway then you did it to yourself and you are on your own. We will not spend our time working to fix a problem that would not even exist if you had taken our advice and complied with the MSF tag to begin with.
I feel safe in saying that at least 90% of the scamming that happens on this site is done by Under 20 MSF traders. Protect yourself, make them send first!!!
Good luck in your trades and feel free to PM me anytime you have a question or concern.
- Duane

Having twins as a results of in vitro fertilization (IVF) carries higher risks of complications for both mother and babies than having two single babies from separate IVF procedures, according to a Swedish study.
The extra concerns that come with multiple births are nothing new. Btu even as many fertility clinics have stopped regularly transferring more than one embryo, debate has continued over whether having twins through IVF is really a bad thing for couples desperate for children.
"The neonatal and maternal outcomes were dramatically better for women undergoing two IVF singleton pregnancies compared with one IVF twin pregnancy after double-embryo transfer," wrote lead researcher Antonina Sazonova in the journal Fertility and Sterility.
"These results support single-embryo transfer to minimize the risks associated with twin pregnancies," added Sazonova of Sahlgrenska University Hospital in Gothenburg, Sweden.
The researchers analyzed data from fresh and frozen embryo transfers done at Swedish IVF clinics between 2002 and 2006. Those records included 991 women who ultimately gave birth to twins after a double embryo transfer and 921 mothers with two children born through separate rounds of IVF.
Almost 47 percent of twin babies were born prematurely and 39 percent were considered low birth weight, the team reported. That compared to the seven percent of singleton babies that were preemies and less than five percent born small.
Twins were also more likely to have breathing complications, sepsis or jaundice. Their mothers had two to three times more preeclampsia - high blood pressure and protein in the urine - and were four times more likely to need a C-section than women who had two single births.
However, there was no difference in the babies' chances of having severe malformations and other life-threatening health problems.
"A lot of patients, when they've had infertility for a long time, think that it's a bonus to get two," said Lynn Westphal, a women's health and fertility specialist at Stanford University Medical Center in Palo Alto, California.
"We know it's always safest to have one child at a time," added Westphal, who wasn't involved in the new study, adding that she and her colleagues have been counseling more and more women to have a single embryo transferred, especially the younger and healthier patients.
Some data suggest women are just as likely to get pregnant if they have a single embryo transfer, versus more than one. But the findings have been inconsistent, Westphal said.
"A lot of patients are focusing just on getting pregnant, they're not looking at the whole pregnancy and looking at the outcome of twins," she said.
"They're just thinking if they transfer more, they're more likely to get pregnant. And they're thinking if they have twins, they're just getting everything done at one time."

NEW YORK - The horrific massacre of 26 children and staff at a Connecticut elementary school, along with other mass shootings, was the top news story of 2012, narrowly edging out the U.S. election, according to The Associated Press' annual poll of U.S. editors and news directors.
NEW YORK - The horrific massacre of 26 children and staff at a Connecticut elementary school, along with other mass shootings, was the top news story of 2012, narrowly edging out the U.S. election, according to The Associated Press' annual poll of U.S. editors and news directors.
The results followed a rare decision by the AP to re-conduct the voting. The initial round of balloting had ended Dec. 13, a day before the shootings in Newtown, with the election ranked No. 1, followed by superstorm Sandy. The original entry for mass shootings, focused on the rampage at an Aurora, Colo., movie theater, placed sixth in that voting.
In the new poll, updated to account for Newtown, the mass shootings received 68 first-place votes out of 173 ballots cast for the top 10 stories, compared with 65 first-place votes for the election - one of the closest results since the AP launched the poll in 1936. On a scale of points ranging from 10 for first place to one for 10th place, the shootings tallied 1,448 points, compared to 1,417 for the election. The second balloting ran Dec. 17-19.
Superstorm Sandy was third, far ahead of the next group of stories.
"After we completed our poll, the news agenda was reshaped, tragically, by the Newtown shootings," said Michael Oreskes, AP's senior managing editor for U.S. news. "To chronicle that, we conducted the poll again before releasing both results."
The U.S.-focused slant of the top stories this year contrasted with last year's voting, when the killing of Osama bin Laden in Pakistan was No. 1, followed by Japan's earthquake/tsunami disaster and the Arab Spring uprisings that rocked North Africa and the Middle East.
Here are 2012's top 10 stories, in order:
Armed with a high-powered rifle, 20-year-old Adam Lanza forced his way into Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., and shot dead 20 children - all ages 6 and 7 - and six staff members in the second-worst school massacre in U.S. history. Sadly, it was only one of several mass shootings, including the killing of 12 people at a movie theater in Aurora, Colo. After the Newtown tragedy, President Barack Obama and many others, including some staunch gun rights supporters, said it was time to find ways to rein in gun violence.
Mitt Romney outcampaigned an eclectic field of Republican rivals and bested Obama in their opening head-to-head debate. But on Election Day, thanks in part to a vigorous get-out-the-vote operation, Obama won a second term with a large lead in electoral votes and a solid advantage in popular votes. The GOP hung on to its majority in the House but lost two seats to remain a minority in the Senate despite early-campaign projections of gains there.
As a prelude, the storm named Sandy killed more than 70 people in the Caribbean. Then its high winds and high waters slammed into more than 800 miles of the Eastern Seaboard, killing at least 125 more people and causing damage calculated at well over $60 billion - the second-costliest storm in U.S. history after 2005's Hurricane Katrina. New York and New Jersey were the worst hit, with several hundred thousand homes and businesses damaged or destroyed.
On a 5-4 vote, the Supreme Court upheld the core elements of Obama's much-debated health care overhaul, which even he embraced as "Obamacare." To widespread surprise, the decisive vote came from John Roberts, the generally conservative-leaning chief justice appointed by Republican George W. Bush. Romney, as the GOP presidential nominee, vowed to repeal the law if he won, but Obama's victory ensured the plan would proceed, with complex ramifications for insurers, employers, health care providers and state governments.
A Sept. 11 assault in Benghazi, widely blamed on a group with suspected links to al-Qaida, killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stephens and three other Americans. The U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, Susan Rice, later bowed out of consideration to be the next secretary of state because of her assertions in TV interviews that a spontaneous demonstration over an anti-Muslim video triggered the attack.
In January, longtime football coach Joe Paterno died, his legacy tarnished by the sex-abuse scandal involving his former assistant Jerry Sandusky. In June, Sandusky was convicted of sexually abusing 10 boys and was later sentenced to 30 to 60 years in prison. In July, the NCAA imposed severe sanctions, including $60 million in fines, a four-year postseason ban on football and a reduction in football scholarships.
By many measures, the economy was on a welcome upswing. The unemployment rate dipped to a four-year-low of 7.7 percent, stock markets rose, builders broke ground on more homes and November was the best sales month in nearly five years for U.S. automakers. But overshadowing the good news was deep anxiety about the economic consequences if Obama and congressional Democrats failed to reach a tax and spending deal with Republicans.
Obama and Republican House Speaker John Boehner engaged in high-stakes negotiations over a deal to avert the so-called "fiscal cliff" that would trigger automatic tax hikes and spending cuts. The leaders narrowed some differences on Social Security and tax rates for the wealthy but faced intense pressure from their bases to resist certain compromises.
For supporters of same-sex marriage, it was a year of milestones. Obama, after a drawn-out process of "evolving," said in May he supported the right of gay couples to wed. On Election Day, Maine, Maryland and Washington became the first states to legalize gay marriage via popular vote. And on Dec. 7 the Supreme Court agreed to hear two cases that could further expand same-sex marriage rights.
What began in 2011 as an outbreak of peaceful protests escalated into civil war ,pitting the beleaguered regime of Bashar Assad against a disparate but increasingly potent rebel opposition. The overall death toll climbed past 40,000 as the rebels made inroads toward Assad's bastion of Damascus. The U.S. and many other nations were supporting the opposition, albeit wary of outcomes that might help Islamic extremists gain power in the region.

Posted on March 7, 2014
I do not number a LOT of these people among my acquaintance, but someone actually scolded me for Wednesday's column. "More people are buying electronic texts than books these days," she said. "You need to start planning your vacuum cleaner section now, because there won't be any money in selling books. So few people want them now."
What she meant, of course, was that the sorry screeneyed souls in her circle don't want them. I immediately thought of Mad-Libs.
Mad-Libs is a party game you have probably run across in your time and, whether you have or not, you will be able to buy in the Games section come July. (There will also be some of the children's Mad-Libs books in the Children's section.) Mad-Libs were invented by a couple of TV comedy writers, Leonard Stern and Roger Price in 1953. It became the cornerstone of their publishing company, Price Stern and Sloan (PSS!) which among other things also published the definitive collection of Elephant Jokes. (If you do not know why the elephant painted his toenails red I can't stop and explain. There's only so much time in the day.)
Roger Price, who was also a game show panelist, novelist, game inventor, and what have you, came up with Price's Law of Mass Marketing, "If everybody doesn't want it, nobody gets it." That is, to a manufacturer or distributor who is out for the quick buck, selling only those items that a huge portion of the population wants to buy is the way to go. A product which only ten percent of the population will buy fanatically is not big enough to bother with.
There was a volunteer who suggested every year that we throw away all fiction over five years old: nobody would want such stuff. One or two other volunteers have all but ordered me to throw away all car repair manuals more than ten years old, because surely only one in a thousand people would be interested. (There's a hitch to this: repair manuals over ten years old are the only ones we ever get.)
But no, we here at the Newberry cater to those tenth of a percenters. You can buy this year's bestseller anywhere: WE'RE the ones who can sell you the proceedings of the 1976 conference on excessively hair legs. (You think I'm making that up, don't you? It's in the Health section, coddled codfish.)
What really brought this home to me was another session pricing records from this wonderful collection inflicted on me last fall. We do, by the way, to follow up on last week's column, DO have plenty of Chicago polkas besides Li'l Wally's Jay Jay albums. There's a goodly stack of Marion Lush (The Golden Voice of Polkas), and plenty of albums from Dyno, another of the great Chicago Polka publishers, and even a volume of hits from Ron Terry's Polka Party.
But besides those, we have a plethora of rare recordings you MIGHT not be able to find elsewhere. We have Living Marimbas playing Glen Campbell hits; we have Joann Castle playing Hawaiian Ragtime. There is an album which sets Mother Goose rhymes to current dance music (the Frug, the Watusi, the Jerk…ask your grandmother, but don't let her demonstrate unless you're in the will.) There is an album by a Chicago family harmonica group: it isn't their fault their last name is Chimes. We have an album of current song hits called Dear Heart and Goldfinger. Another LP of anatomical hits shows a dreamy-eyed young woman under the title Organ Fascination.
Should have seen it coming when I opened that box and found the Smurf Sing Song album right in front. Of course, everyone wants THAT.

BOSTON — Obviously the entire Bruins organization breathed a collective sigh of relief when the NHL announced it would rescind the instigator penalty against defenseman Zdeno Chara, and the coinciding suspension for Monday's Game 6.
But no one exhaled harder that Chara, who will now get to try to help his team finish off Buffalo in the sixth game of the Eastern Conference quarterfinal series.
"I think the league did a great job recognizing the whole situation," said Chara after practice at TD Garden today. "Obviously, I wasn't initiating, I was just responding."
Despite his size and toughness, Chara is truly a gentlemanly sort — that is, until he is pushed over the edge. Opposing players go into every game knowing that the only way to beat Chara is to get him off his game, but he usually controls his temper.
Paul Gaustad's slash to the back of Chara's ankles, however, pushed the captain too far.
"There's no need to do what Gaustad did," said Chara, "particularly after the game is over. You've got to take that reaction. The game is over."
For the most part the Bruins have predicted there will be no carry-over from the Game 5-ending melee to Game 6. Winger Shawn Thornton, who would usually be asked to police things when a team takes liberties with Boston's best players, said that because of the magnitude of the game that element is thrown out the window.
"It'd probably be a little different during the regular season," said Thornton. "This time of year, we turn the page, we go win a game."
Milan Lucic probably put the Bruins' attitude toward the situation best.
"Obviously you don't like to see that at the end of the game, with guys going after anybody on your team, but especially your captain," said the winger. "Everybody knows the best way to get back at them is having a good effort, a good start and sticking them where it really hurts."

Flexner of Finishing: Optimize a Spray Gun
A simple test reveals ideal pressure for atomization.
By Bob Flexner
Pages: 54-56
From the October 2010 issue # 185
Buy this issue now
Spray guns can run off a compressor or a turbine. With turbines the air pressure is established by the number of "stages," usually two, three or four. Each stage corresponds to about 2 pounds per square inch (PSI). This seems ineffectively low, but it's made up for by a huge volume of air, giving rise to the name – High-Volume Low-Pressure (HVLP).
With compressors you have an infinite range of pressures you can use, and it is up to you to set this pressure so your spray gun is optimized for the best possible atomization. If you use too little pressure, you won't get the best atomization; you'll get orange peel. If you set the pressure too high, you'll waste fi nish or stain because of excessive bounce-back.

Passing years taking a toll on number of Pearl Harbor survivorsBy PAUL FEELY
New Hampshire Union Leader
December 07. 2012 12:52AM
It's easy to see how some may forget that today marks the 71st anniversary of "a date which will live in infamy." But for survivors, it's a day that will never be forgotten.
"It was a God-awful day," said William Kidd of Bedford, who was a member of Unit #056 on the USS Phoenix that fateful morning. "I don't like to talk about it."
At the time, the air attack by Japanese forces on U.S. naval and air installations at Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941, was the worst attack on American soil in history. A total of 2,341 American Navy, Marine and Army personnel lost their lives that day. Another 1,178 were wounded. Eighteen U.S. Navy ships, including the USS Arizona, were sunk or badly damaged, and nearly all the planes at the Hawaiian bases were destroyed or damaged.
The attack came without a declaration of war, prompting President Franklin D. Roosevelt to declare Dec. 7, 1941, "a day that will live in infamy."
"I think fewer people think about it now," said Barry Conway, commandant at the New Hampshire Veterans Home in Tilton. "To today's generation, Pearl Harbor is something they have a connection to only through what they learned in school, where the older generations remember where they were and what they were doing when they first heard about it. I also think that now the 9/11 attacks stand out in everyone's minds."
"For people of a certain age, the day will never lose its meaning," said former state Rep. Bob L'Heureux of Merrimack, who was the lead sponsor of a bill to name the new bridge that brings motorists across the Merrimack River and into Manchester-Boston Regional Airport. A ceremony was held in 2009 to unveil a sign naming the structure the Pearl Harbor Memorial Bridge; about 18 Pearl Harbor survivors living in New Hampshire attended the event.
"I was born in 1940, and anyone who grew up hearing about World War II and Pearl Harbor will never forget that time," said L'Heureux. "They were the 'Greatest Generation'. But we are losing members of the World War II fighting forces at an incredible rate, something like 1,000 a day. As the generations pass on, something like Pearl Harbor becomes another date in history."
New Hampshire lost another Pearl Harbor survivor in October, when William Lefabvre Sr. of Merrimack, a Manchester native, died at age 92. Lefabvre served as chairman of the New Hampshire Pearl Harbor Survivors Association Chapter 1 until the end of 2011, when the national association disbanded due to dwindling enrollment numbers.
For survivors, the memories of the attack remain fresh.
"I will never forget it," said Jim Bilotta, 92, of Derry, a Marine stationed at Camp Catlin, located in the sugar cane fields east of Honolulu. "It was a beautiful sunny morning, and we were just sitting down to breakfast when someone saw the planes heading in. We couldn't see the insignias on them. Nobody knew what was going on until the shooting started. We thought maybe the Navy was having target practice, but then the bugler blew the 'call to arms,' and we knew this was something else."
"The next day, the fires, the overturned ships - I've never seen anything like it," said Bilotta. "It almost didn't seem real."
Four Manchester natives were killed in the attack. Seaman 2nd Class Joe Rozmus died aboard the USS Arizona. Army Sgt. Maurice St. Germain and Pvt. Joseph Jedrysik died at Hickham Field. Seaman 1st Class David Crossett was shot twice by a Japanese fighter as he headed to the crow's nest of the USS Utah.
A memorial service will be held today at the New Hampshire Veterans Home to honor those lost in the attack. Gov. John Lynch has proclaimed today Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day in New Hampshire and ordered flags to be lowered to half-staff.
Conway estimates there are about 14 Pearl Harbor survivors living in the state.
"It was a terrible moment for America, but if there can be anything positive taken from that day, it's how it brought the country together," said Conway. "Men, women, black, white, old or young, everyone was involved in the war effort after that. It's too bad it took something like that to bring us together, but Pearl Harbor defined this country for quite a while."
