Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey will take "Commissioner's Direct Action" against Lt. Jonathan Josey, the Philadelphia police officer who hit a woman during a public event on Sunday.
That means that effective on Thursday, Lt. Josey will be suspended for 30 days with the intent to dismiss.
Josey was caught on video striking Aida Guzman during a traffic stop on Sunday.
Josey was part of a crowd gathered for festivities after the Puerto Rican Parade and Josey was the commanding officer on the scene.
The video shows Josey right after she sprayed silly string near the officer. Josey was with several other officers involved at the time in a traffic stop. He turns around and hits Guzman, who falls to the ground.
Guzman was quickly handcuffed, led off with a bloody lip by other officers and later charged with disorderly conduct. Those charges were dropped on Wednesday, shortly before we learned that Josey was losing his job.
Guzman's attorney, Enrique Latoison, says his client never asked for the lieutenant to be fired, but what she does want is an apology.
"We want an apology, we want an official apology, a public apology, instead of a no comment during this process," said Latoison.
Guzman and her attorney will meet with Internal Affairs on Thursday, which will be the first time she has talked to police.
Lt. Josey is a 19-year veteran of the department. The highlights of his career include a commendation for shooting a would-be robber who was trying to hold up a convenience store clerk in 2010. Josey was off-duty when he walked in on the robbery. Earlier that same year he was stabbed by two women while breaking up a bar fight between them and another off-duty officer. In 2006, Josey was selected as one of the Sexiest Singles by The Daily News.

I just upgraded to Windows 7, and when after reinstalling my MS Office, I have an interesting error. When I click on a database, I get a popup message "There was a problem sending the command to the program", but the file application will still start and the proper database does get open.
Has anyone ever seen anything like this?
How would I go about investigating and then fixing this problem?
Note: I am not using Zone-Alarm. Most online searches on this problem return various sites and MSKB articles discussing problems using Zone-Alarm
SOLVED: Thanks to Mihi --- After renaming the Registry key from ddexec to NOddeexec, the problem went away -- still not sure why the DDE is broken, but works well enough for me now

Kings, McDonalds pledge $1 million to local charities
LOS ANGELES – The Los Angeles Kings, the 2012 Stanley Cup Champions, in a joint effort with McDonald's will donate $1 Million to local charities as a special "Thank You" to the city of Los Angeles for its support this past year, the hockey club – including its players – announced this afternoon as part of a news conference at STAPLES Center.
As part of the pledge – which was announced by Kings executives Tim Leiweke and Luc Robitaille along with Kings forward Jarret Stoll, defenseman Matt Greene and goaltender Jonathan Quick -- the Kings Care Foundation will work with the following four local charities to maximize this commitment:
-Children's Hospital Los Angeles
-Ronald McDonald House Charities of Southern California
-Boys and Girls Club of America
-City Year Los Angeles
"We feel that it is important to not only make a significant commitment back to our community but to help facilitate a sizeable charitable effort that everybody can get behind -- including our players, our fans and our partners in particular," said Robitaille.
"Luc Robitaille and the Kings have been strong supporters of our children and families, and we are thrilled with their decision to invest in our partnership in such a significant way," said Rob Parker, CEO, Ronald McDonald House Charities of Southern California.
To support this commitment, the Kings Care Foundation will spearhead fundraising initiatives in several categories, including special auctions and fan-friendly events.
Among the highlights will be a unique Kings Stanley Cup Championship ring auction. One ring will be auctioned or raffled off for each of the four aforementioned charities, so that our fans can support the cause of their choice, and a fifth ring will be handled and supported by the Kings Care Foundation.
In addition to Stoll and Greene who were at STAPLES Center today along with Quick, Kings players on the whole have stepped up to support the initiative and will be very active in the program. Anze Kopitar and Drew Doughty will donate tickets as part of a special ticket program; captain Dustin Brown will donate money for each on-ice hit as part of a special Hit Tracker; and Quick, the Conn Smythe Trophy winning goalie, will donate $500 per win from his 326 Foundation.
The $1 Million "Thank You" pledge will also provide additional support to key military charities and youth hockey organizations. FOX Sports West and Clear Channel will serve as special media partners.

Can you put a price on religious liberty?
Apparently the Obama administration has.
If you value your faith; if you are one of the millions of Americans who believe that abortion pills cause the destruction of innocent, God-given human life; if you are an employer who believes that being forced to pay for others' abortion pills is morally reprehensible, the Obama administration wants you to pay a dramatically steep price for your religious liberty.
The penalty for failure to abide by the Obamacare HHS abortion-pill mandate is an astounding $36,500 a year.
Refusal to violate your faith will cost you.
The HHS mandate requires that all employer health insurance plans cover abortion pills—that the employer must, under penalty of law, pay for the abortion pills of its employees.
According to federal law, the penalty for failure to provide this coverage is "$100 for each day in the noncompliance period with respect to each individual to whom such failure relate."
That's $100 a day, per employee, per year.
Needless to say, this is a penalty that adds up quickly.
For example, a business with 100 employees would face a fine of $3.65 million dollars a year for refusing to violate one's faith.
To put this in perspective, consider this. A violation of Obamacare's employer mandate, which requires all employers of more that 50 employees to provide health insurance for those employees, is limited under federal law to $2,000 per employee and excludes the first 30 employees from the calculation.
So in the same example as above, if the employer chose not to provide any insurance for his or her 100 employees, the fine would be $140,000 a year.
So the same company would be fined $3.65 million for providing insurance but refusing to violate its faith by paying for abortion pills, but would only be fined $140,000 for providing no insurance at all. In fact, because the administration has now delayed the employer mandate until 2015 while seeking to enforce the HHS mandate now, an employer could refuse to provide any insurance to any employee and not face even a dime in penalties. Yet failure to provide abortion-pill coverage will cost an employer dearly.
It shows you exactly where the Obama administration's priorities are. By its own regulations, it is clear that ensuring abortion pills for all is far more valuable to the administration than religious liberty or even universal health care coverage.
It is also important to take this out of the abstract. One of our clients, the Kortes, a family that runs a very small business but that is strongly committed to running their business in compliance with their faith, face over $700,000 in fines a year, something that would absolutely cripple any business.
Thankfully, this past Friday, the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals ordered a preliminary injunction preventing the HHS mandate from forcing our clients to pay these fines or violate their faith as their case continues. This has been the same result thus far in all seven of our lawsuits against the mandate.
But unfortunately, this is not the case for everyone. Businesses all across America are facing these Orwellian penalties for standing for their faith.
We have just asked the Supreme Court to take one of our cases, urging it to declare that the federal government cannot force Americans, including businesses and business owners, to violate their faith. (And for anyone questioning whether the First Amendment is supposed to protect the rights of businesses, let me just remind you of the freedom of the press.)
This week, as we celebrated Veterans Day, we were all reminded that our freedoms clearly have a price. But no American should ever be threatened with fines for exercising his or her faith.

NEW PALTZ, N.Y. -- Brittany Robinson has been officially been named the head coach at SUNY New Paltz following a nationwide search, as announced Thursday by director of athletics Stuart Robinson.
"Brittany came to New Paltz in a very tough situation, arriving a week and a half before the start of practice in the spring," Stuart Robinson said. "She came in and pulled together the student-athletes in a way that exceeded expectations given the multiple changes in leadership of the program within the last two years. Among a talented applicant pool, Brittany stood out because of her commitment to excellence and a standard when she arrived. She understands the importance of a positive student-athlete experience, but she also understands the benefits of having a competitive and successful softball program. It was that balance that gave her the edge over the other applicants."
During Robinson's first year at the helm, the team went 10-24 overall but achieved a 7-11 mark in State University of New York Athletic Conference play to qualify for the SUNYAC tournament. She had three student-athletes earn All-SUNYAC honors following the 2014 season.
Prior to New Paltz, Robinson served as an assistant coach with the Wil Devils Softball Club, which is a member of the Semi-Pro National Softball League in Switzerland. She also served as the head coach at Northern Vance High School in Henderson, North Carolina, from 2011-13.
Robinson spent her undergraduate career competing for North Carolina, playing both second base and third base across four seasons for the Tar Heels. During her tenure, North Carolina went 173-66-1, qualified for the NCAA tournament three times (2008-10) and captured the Atlantic Coast Conference regular-season title in '08. A three-year starter who competed in 179 contests, Robinson hit for power, boasting 19 doubles and 14 home runs.
A born leader who excelled both on and off the field in college, Robinson was a Rising Stars graduate while at North Carolina, serving as a key member of the department's leadership academy. Academically, she was a member of the ACC Academic Honor Roll in 2009 and '10, and earned All-ACC Academic Team honors in 2010. Following her junior season, she received National Fastpitch Coaches Association Scholar-Athlete recognition.
"It's an honor to be asked to come back," Robinson said. "I can't wait to improve upon what we did last season. I'm excited to come back and work with the team in the fall and officially become a part of the New Paltz athletics family."

I'm surprised that there isn't a Google Chrome Blog. After all, the company has about 1100 different blogs, and seems to have one for just about every product and service it makes. That said, Google does have a Chromium Blog, which is about the open source project behind Chrome. It's a start. Here's part of the first post:
Today, Google launched a new web browser called Google Chrome. At the same time, we are releasing all of the code as open source under a permissive BSD license. The open source project is called Chromium - after the metal used to make chrome.
Why did Google release the source code?
Primarily it's because one of the fundamental goals of the Chromium project is to help drive the web forward. Open source projects like Firefox and WebKit have led the way in defining the next generation of web technologies and standards, and we felt the best way we could help was to follow suit, and be as open as we could. To be clear, improving the web in this way also has some clear benefits for us as a company. With a richer set of APIs we can build more interesting apps allowing people to do more online. The more people do online, the more they can use our services. At any rate, we have worked on this project by ourselves for long enough - it's time for us to engage with the wider web community so that we can move on to the next set of challenges.
We believe that open source works not only because it allows people to join us and improve our products, but also (and more importantly) because it means other projects are able to use the code we've developed. Where we've developed innovative new technology, we hope that other projects can use it to make their products better, just as we've been able to adopt code from other open source projects to make our product better.

Tips For Training In Hot Weather
Don't let the heat of the dog days spoil your training. Use these tips to train safely and effectively all summer long.
Heading out the door? Read this article on the new Outside+ app available now on iOS devices for members! Download the app.
Don't let the heat of the dog days spoil your training. Use these tips to run safely and effectively all summer long.
Training in hot weather is not always pleasant, but it's not always avoidable, either. If you live in an area where the summers are toasty and you want to be in peak shape for a fall race, then you have to get out there and sweat in June, July and August.
While training in the heat is not as enjoyable as running on cool days, it need not be any riskier. Heat illness is relatively rare among endurance athletes, and if you take the following precautions, it will never happen to you.
Listen to your body.
Early signs and symptoms of heat illness include fatigue, discomfort, lightheadedness, cessation of sweating, disorientation and nausea. Stop exercising and find a cool environment as quickly as possible if you begin to notice any of these signs or symptoms while exercising in the heat.
RELATED: 6 Strategies For Safe Summer Running
Take baby steps.
The fitter you are, the better your body can tolerate exercise in the heat, so try to build your fitness to a high level in the spring, before the first heat wave of the year. When the first really hot day comes, do a shorter- and slower-than-normal workout. On each subsequent hot day go a little farther and a little faster. It takes about 10 days for the body to fully acclimatize to the heat. The body adapts by increasing its sweating capacity and reducing the electrolyte concentration of the sweat to boost your ability to maintain a safe core body temperature. After this process is complete you can train more or less normally through the summer.
RELATED: Preparing For A Race In An Unfamiliar Climate
Slow down.
I said "more or less normally" above because it is never possible to train as hard in the heat as in temperate conditions. Research has shown that the brain protects the body during exertion in the heat by constantly monitoring the core body temperature and limiting muscle activity to prevent the core body temperature from rising to dangerous levels. (It's actually the heat produced by the muscles, not environmental heat, that causes heat illness to occur. Environmental heat merely prevents body heat from dissipating.) So don't expect or try to perform at the same level on hot days. Instead, maintain your normal level of exertion and understand that you will not go as fast at this level of exertion as on cooler days.
RELATED: Biggest Mistakes When Racing In Heat
Run early-or late.
If you take the time to acclimatize to the heat, and you adjust your pace properly on hot days, you can train safely in very high environmental temperatures. However, because you have to slow down, you can't train as hard or get as fit in such temperatures as you can in cooler temperatures. That's why very few American runners and triathletes went to "heat camps" ahead of the Beijing Olympics, where very hot days were expected. They preferred to train at a higher level in cooler environments until they left for China, and then acclimatize over there.
By the same rationale I recommend that you train early in the morning and late in the evening-and perhaps even indoors sometimes-to avoid the highest temperatures of the day. You'll have better workouts and you'll feel more comfortable, too. I lived in Phoenix for one year, where I quickly discovered that the local endurance athletes routinely work out before the sun comes up and after it goes down. After suffering through a few broiling midday workouts I quickly fell in line with the locals, and boy what a difference it made!
RELATED: Handling The Hawaii Heat
Dress to sweat.
Sweating is the body's primary cooling mechanism. When you train in hot weather, be sure to dress in clothes that allow this mechanism to do its job. Avoid wearing everyday clothes such as cotton t-shirts, which trap sweat and heat against the body. Instead wear technical apparel that is designed for your sport and made from moisture-wicking fabrics such as CoolMax, which soak sweat from your skin and transfer it to the outer surface of the garment for evaporation. Light colors that reflect the sun are also preferable.
RELATED: 8 Summer Run Gear Essentials For Women
Stay hydrated.
Drinking during hot-weather workouts will help your sweating system do its job better. By drinking throughout each training session you will keep your blood volume close to normal levels, which in turn keeps your sweat rate high. And since oxygen is delivered to the muscles through the blood, maintaining your blood volume through drinking also enables your heart to deliver more oxygen per contraction, so you perform better than you can if you allow your body to become too dehydrated.
RELATED: 15 Foods To Keep You Hydrated
Try pre-cooling.
Research has shown that athletes perform better in hot environments when they cool their bodies beforehand. Pre-cooling doesn't make a huge difference, but if you want to gain a little bit of performance in important workouts that must be done in the heat, turn your air conditioning down low or spend time in a cool bath before you head out the door.

Electronics component suppliers that allegedly paid kickbacks to gain business from Apple declined to comment on the allegations when contacted on Monday.
"I can't comment on anything right now," said Andric Ng, CEO of Singapore's Jin Li Mould Manufacturing, which was one of the companies named in papers filed last week with the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California in San Jose.
China's Kaeder Electronics declined to comment and Paul Kim, an employee of South Korea's Cresyn, said there were no staff in the company's Seoul office able to answer questions regarding the allegations.
The three suppliers and three others are alleged to have paid around US$1 million to Paul Shin Devine in return for information that enabled them to negotiate favorable contracts from Apple, reported the San Jose Mercury news. Devine allegedly shared the kickbacks with Andrew Ang, an employee of Jin Li who the indictment said helped broker deals with his employer and others
Devine was global operations manager for Apple's iPod music player and had worked at the company for five years, according to his profile on the LinkedIn social networking site. Prior to working at Apple, he was a product manager at Teledyne and graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Sloan School of Management, the profile says.
A federal indictment changes both Devine and Ang with wire fraud and wire fraud conspiracy. Devine is additionally charged with money laundering and monetary transactions with criminally derived property.
The payments were allegedly sent to Asian bank accounts opened in the name of Devine's wife in small amounts so they would avoid attention, according to the San Jose Mercury News.
He is due to appear in court in San Jose at 1:30pm today.

The 10 Most Hilariously Geeky Fake Twitter Streams
In an age in which fans of The Daily Show shows are among the most informed citizens in the U.S. and The Onion doesn't have to break character in order to report real news without embellishment, it's clear that humor has become one of the primary ways an informed citizenry stays that way.
In addition to helping pass the workday and making you more creative, the following fake Twitter accounts also serve the purpose that satire always has: tweaking the self-serious keepers of the status quo.
Good for: Cleantech geeks, VC junkies, Silicon Valley types and their hangers-on; anyone who knows who Vinod Khosla is.
Sample Tweet:
Looks like #facebook no longer cares about bleeding edge technology. Opening engineering office in NYC. (rolling eyes in 360 degree fashion)
Good for: Fans of Danger Room, robots or UAVs, as well as National Security wonks, hawks, doves and anyone else who thinks too much about the Military-Industrial Complex.
Sample Tweet:
Iowa #ows protesters will occupy a planned police UAV factory site. In related news, UAV makers thank #ows for the marketing.
Good for: Software developers, IT staff, weekend coders, anyone who reads Slashdot and thinks it's still funny to yell "IZ NICE!"
Sample Tweet:
I manage of automate everything! Now I am so bored I am volunteer time as desktop support.
Good for: Fans of Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar and/or his trademark bolo tie.
Sample Tweet:
Drugs? No, Ken's never done drugs. Unless you count clean Rocky Mountain air and the natural high of wearing a sharp bolo tie and a stetson.
Good for: Physics and space geeks, anyone who can correctly answer the trivia question "Who developed a rocket for Nazi Germany before defecting to America and pioneering its missions into space?"
Sample Tweet:
Today in '42, Enrico Fermi initiated the 1st nuclear reaction, in a rackets court. It's also the only time anyone's ever heard of "rackets".
Good for: Paleontologists.
Sample Tweet:
These Christmas sales are rough. I always thought dinosaurs were meaner than humans, but I've never devoured anyone to save $20 on a TV set.
Good for: People who are so into Silicon Valley inside baseball that they think it's hilarious when CrazyDrunkVC cracks jokes about "hunting cougars" at Madera on Sand Hill Road right after skewering the improbable valuation of the latest bay area "It" company.
Sample Tweet:
I GOT THIS ONE!! A STEAL!! $4 billion Valuation Round In Dropbox http://techcrunch.com/2011/08/30/index-leads-4-billion-valuation-round-in-dropbox/
Good for: Academics. People who can't get enough of the fake Hulk accounts spawned by the original, Drunk Hulk.
Sample Tweet:
Good for: Have you heard of a little movie called Star Wars?
Sample Tweet:
Guys, the best things in life aren't free. The REAL best things in life cost 15 septillion credits and disintegrate planets.
Good for: Journalists. Anyone who is regularly gobsmacked by the results of real Pew Research surveys. People who always click on links marked NSFW.
Sample Tweet:
People talking to themselves on the bus this morning: 35% Have a phone; 62% Don't have a phone; 3% Undecided.
Bonus: FakeAPStylebook
Good for: Because we know FakeAPStylebook would want us to, we decided to take this list to 11. Possibly the funniest fake Twitter account there is. Great for word nerds, "social media experts," or anyone with a pulse who reads above a 12th grade level.
Sample Tweet:
Does your story have anything in it that will terrify an old person? If not, it needs another rewrite.

This technique relates to:
row and
col values of the
scope attribute are
currently supported to a large extent by most current versions of JAWS. However, there
are still some problems and WindowEyes support for
scope is inconsistent.
The same is true for Japanese versions of these screen readers. Versions of JAWS prior
to version 5 and older versions of Window-Eyes have inconsistent support for
At the current time, those who want to ensure consistent support across Assistive
Technologies for tables where the headers are not in the first row/column may want to
use the technique for complex tables H43: Using id and headers attributes to associate data cells with header cells in
data tables. For simple tables that have
headers in the first column or row we recommend the use of the
th and
td elements.
The objective of this technique is to associate header cells with data cells in complex tables using the
scope attribute. The
scope attribute may be used to clarify
the scope of any cell used as a header. The scope identifies whether the cell is a
header for a row, column, or group of rows or columns. The values
rowgroup, and
colgroup identify these
possible scopes respectively.
For simple data tables where the header is not in the first row or column, like the one in Example 1, this technique can be used. Based on screen reader support today, its use is suggested in two situations both relating to simple tables: :
data cells marked up with
td that also function as row header or column
header cells marked up with
td instead of
th. Sometimes, authors
use this to avoid the display characteristics associated with
th and also
do not choose to use CSS to control the display for
Note 1: For simple tables that have the headers in the first row or column then it is sufficient to simply use the TH elements without scope.
Note 2: For complex tables use ids and headers as in H43: Using id and headers attributes to associate data cells with header cells in data tables.
Note 3: Some users may find it easier to work with several simple tables than one more complex table. Authors may wish to consider whether they can convert complex tables to one or more simple tables.
In the following example, column #1 contains serial numbers for rows in the table
and the second column contains the key value for the row. The cells in the second
column may then use
scope="row". The cells in the first row too are
marked up with
td and use

For each data table:
Check that all

Check that all

All checks above are true.

Lincoln, NE – Maggie Lucas poured in 34 points and No. 7 Penn State wrapped up a second consecutive outright Big Ten regular season title with an 82-67 victory over No. 20 Nebraska.
The Cornhuskers entered the regular season finale winners of 10 in a row and had a chance to share the conference crown but simply had no answer for Lucas, who shot 8-of-13 from behind the arc and grabbed nine rebounds in the final women's basketball game at Devaney Center.
Alex Bentley chipped in 13 points for the Lady Lions (24-4, 14-2 Big Ten), whose loss to Minnesota on Thursday set up the dramatic showdown.
Lindsey Moore battled foul trouble and committed eight turnovers to go with her team-high 23 points, while Emily Cady added 15 points and 10 rebounds for the Cornhuskers (22-7, 12-4), whose leading scorer, Jordan Hooper, netted 14 points on a rough 4-of-17 shooting effort.
Lucas scored 18 in the first half, the last two coming on a jumper from the top of the key just before the buzzer to give Penn State a 38-32 lead.
The Lady Lions began pulling away with an 8-0 run that was capped by two Lucas free throws for a 63-52 cushion with under nine minutes to play.
The closest the hosts got from there was nine.

A breast self exam is a check-up a woman does at home to look for changes or problems in the breast tissue. Many women feel that doing this is important to their health.
However, experts do not agree about the benefits of breast self exams in finding breast cancer or saving lives. Talk to your health care provider about whether breast self exams are right for you.
The best time to do a self breast exam is about 3 – 5 days after your period starts. Your breasts are not as tender or lumpy at this time in your monthly cycle.
If you have gone through menopause, do your exam on the same day every month.
Begin by lying on your back. It is easier to examine all breast tissue if you are lying down.
- Place your right hand behind your head. With the middle fingers of your left hand, gently yet firmly press down using small motions to examine the entire right breast.
- Next, sit or stand. Feel your armpit, because breast tissue goes into that area.
- Gently squeeze the nipple, checking for discharge. Repeat the process on the left breast.
- Use one of the patterns shown in the diagram to make sure that you are covering all of the breast tissue.
Next, stand in front of a mirror with your arms by your side.
- Look at your breasts directly and in the mirror. Look for changes in skin texture, such as dimpling, puckering, indentations, or skin that looks like an orange peel.
- Also note the shape and outline of each breast.
- Check to see if the nipple turns inward.
Do the same with your arms raised above your head.
Most women have some lumps. Your goal is to find anything new or different. If you do, call your health care provider right away.

|The Water Buffalo: New Prospects For An Underutilized Animal (1984)
source ref: b21wae.htm
Most buffaloes are located in countries where land, cultivated forage crops, and pastures are limited. Livestock must feed on poor-quality forages, sometimes supplemented with a little green fodder or byproducts from food, grain, and oil seed processing. Usually feedstuffs are in such short supply that few animals have a balanced diet, but the buffalo seems to perform fairly well under such adverse conditions.
Growth Rate
Insufficient measurements have been taken to allow unequivocal state. meets about the relative growth rates of cattle and buffaloes. However, many observations made in various parts of the world indicate that the buffalo's growth is seldom inferior to that of cattle breeds found in the same environments. Some observations are given below.
· Trials in Trinidad in the early 1960s involved buffaloes grazing pangola grass (Digitaria decumbens) together with Brahman and Jamaican Red cattle. Over a period of 20 months the buffaloes gained an average of 0.72 kg per day, whereas the cattle on a comparable nearby pasture gained 0.63 per day(Experiments performed by P. N. Wilson. -Information supplied by S. P. Bennett.).
· In the Orinoco Delta of Venezuela unselected Criollo/Zebu crossbred cattle gained 0-0.2 kg per day on Paspalum fasciculatum, whereas the water buffaloes with them gained 0.25-0.4 kg per day(Cunha et al., 1975).
· In the Apure Valley of Venezuela, 100 buffalo steers studied in 1979 reached an average weight of 508 kg in 30 months, whereas the 30-month old Zebu steers tested with them weighed 320 kg. The feed consumed was a blend of native grasses (25 percent of the diet) and improved grasses (such as pangola, pare, and guinea grass)( Information supplied by A. Ferrer). In the same valley 200 buffalo heifers (air freighted from Australia) produced weight gains averaging 0.5 kg per day over a 2-year period (and 72 percent of them calved). Government statistics for the area record average weight gains in crossbreeds between Zebu and Criollo cattle as 0.28 kg per day (with 40 percent calving).
· In the Philippines, buffaloes showed weight gains of 0.75-1.25 kg per day, the same as those of cattle.
· Daily weight gains of over 1 kg have been recorded for buffaloes in Bulgaria and Yugoslavia.
· Liveweight gains of 0.80 kg per day have been recorded for buffaloes in Papua New Guinea. In a very humid, swampy area of the Sepik River coastal plains liveweight gains by males averaged 0.47 kg per day and females 0.43 kg per day for more than a year. The average weight of 30 4-year-old female buffaloes was 375 kg, while the average weight of 4-year-old female Brahman/ Shorthorn crossbred cattle was 320 kg.
· At the research station near Belem in the Brazilian Amazon weaned Murrah buffaloes, pastured continuously on Echinochloa pyramidalis (a nutritious grass), gained 0.8 kg daily and reached 450 kg in about 18 months.
· Liveweight gains of 0.74-l.i kg per day have been obtained in Australia. Buffalo steers grew as fast or faster than crossbred Brahman cattle on several improved pastures near Darwin, but on one very poor pasture, 40-year-old buffaloes each weighed only 400 kg, whereas the Brahman crossbred steers reared with them weighed 500 kg. The reason for this is not clear.
Efficiency of Digestion
Indian animal nutritionists have investigated water buffaloes intensively over the past two decades. Many have reported that buffaloes digest feeds more efficiently than do cattle, particularly when feeds are of poor quality and are high in cellulose.One trial revealed that the digestibility of wheat straw cellulose was 24.3 percent for cattle and 30.7 percent for buffalo. The figures for berseem (Trifolium alexandrinum) cellulose were 34.6 percent for cattle and 52.2 percent for buffalo. In another trial the digestion of straw fiber was 64.7 percent in cattle, 79.8 percent in buffalo.
Other nutrients reported to be more highly digested in buffaloes than in cattle (Zebu) are crude fat, calcium and phosphorus, and nonprotein nitrogen.
Recent experiments in India suggest that buffaloes also are able to utilize nitrogen more efficiently than cattle. Buffaloes digested less crude protein than cattle in one trial but increased their body nitrogen more (and they were being fed only 40 percent of the recommended daily intake of crude protein).
The ability of buffaloes to digest fiber efficiently may be partly due to the microorganisms in their rumen. Several Indian research teams have published data indicating that the microbes in the buffalo rumen convert feed into energy more efficiently than do those in cattle (as measured by the rate of production of volatile fatty acids in the rumen).
Also, in laboratory studies samples of buffalo rumen contents produced volatile fatty acids more quickly from a variety of animal feedstuffs than did samples from the rumen of cattle
No single reason alone explains the buffalo's success in using poor quality forages. Rather, it is a combination of reasons that differ with the breed and conditions used. Studies by other researchers suggest that additional causes might include:
· Higher dry matter intake;
· Longer retention of feed in digestive tract;
· Ruminal characteristics more favorable to ammonia-nitrogen utilization;
· Less depression of cellulose digestion by soluble carbohydrates (e.g., starch or molasses);
· Superior ability to handle stressful environment; and
· A wider range of grazing preferences.
Calf Growth Rates
Although the buffalo's gestation period is more than a month longer than that of cattle, the calves are born weighing 35-40 kg, or about the same as that of a newborn Holstein calf. But because buffalo milk has about twice the butterfat of cow's milk, the calves grow very quickly. They also suffer more shock at weaning and have to be slowly changed to their new feeding program. Buffaloes can be marketed as full-grown animals for beef at the age of 2-3 years, sometimes even earlier.
For example, in Indonesia it has been found that buffalo steers can be marketed 6 months before Zebu steers because they may be 100 kg heavier. In Egypt some buffalo calves given feed supplemented with concentrates weighed 360 kg at 1 year of age. At Ain Shams University near Cairo, buffalo calves weaned at 7-14 days of age gained 0.7 kg per day from weaning to slaughter at 18 months of age and weighed 400 kg. Rice straw comprised 50 percent of the finishing diet.
Buffaloes on Italian farms have reached 350 kg in 15-18 months and some year-old calves weighed 320 kg.
Grazing trials on native pasture (with mineral supplementation) in the Brazilian Amazon indicate that buffalo calves grew faster than cattle. At 2 years of age Mediterranean-type buffaloes averaged 369 kg, Swamp type, 322 kg, and Jafarabadi type, 308 kg. The Zebu cattle tested with them averaged 265 kg and the crossbred Zebu/Charolais, 282 kg.
Feed Preferences
Buffaloes graze a wider range of plants than cattle. During floods near Manaus in the Brazilian Amazon when cattle become marooned on small patches of high ground, many suffer from foot rot and many starve to death. Their buffalo companions on the other hand-bodies sleek and full-swim out to islands of floating aquatic plants and eat them, treading water. Also, they dive almost 2 m to graze beneath the floodwaters.
University of Florida buffaloes in a lakefront voluntarily consumed vines, sedges, rushes, floating aquatic weeds, and the leaves and shoots of willows and other trees along the water's edge. Few of these plants are voluntarily grazed by cattle. In northern Australia water buffaloes graze the very pickily leaves of pandanus; they also graze sedges, reeds, floating grass, and aquatic weeds. Hungry buffaloes will eat bark, twigs, and other unpalatable vegetation.
Because of the variety of their tastes they have been used in northern Queensland, Australia, to clear pastures of woody weeds left untouched by cattle. In some countries cattle are used to graze the palatable tops of pasture plants and are followed by buffaloes to graze the less desirable lower parts.

I understand that it's a gradual process to stretch out one's earlobes and wear jewelry that looks like the PLUG hearing aid concept—heck, it's even trendy to some—but that doesn't mean that I could imagine a lot of people actually using this hearing aid if it ever turns into a real product.

Is The Iraqi Dinar Worthless Paper Or Maker Of Millionaires?
Is The Iraqi Dinar Worthless Paper Or Maker Of Millionaires?
Robert A. Green, CPA , Contributor
50 dinars, what's it worth?
Postscript. After reading several good comments on this blog exposing the buy Iraqi Dinar get rich quick scheme as a scam, I want to make it very clear that I also believe it's a scam. My intent for the original blog was to answer tax questions about holding physical currency as an investment, not to drill down into the Iraqi Dinar scheme. I may do just that in a follow-up post soon. -R.G.
Dozens of people have signed up for tax consultations with me over the years looking for a windfall profit on the U.S. government revaluation of the Iraqi dinars back into U.S. dollars. In other words, these were people holding dinars who were hoping they could exchange them for dollars again.
Most dinar investors are current and ex-military, warzone contractors and now speculators. A cottage industry of promoters has sprung up on the Internet promising dinar "get rich" schemes. Many have invested, say, $5,000 and they hope to make millions. I've always thought it was a scam, as it sounded too good to be true.
These people ask me about their potential large tax bills. Most hope for long-term capital gains tax rates, currently up to 15 percent. I have to give them the bad news: holding physical currency is considered ordinary gain or loss in Section 988 (foreign currency transactions). Unlike forex traders, who don't hold physical currency and don't take or make delivery, they can't file a capital gains election to opt out of Section 988 and into short- and long-term capital gains treatment.
That means no lower 60/40 futures tax rate either (Section 1256). At least, it's not considered a personal loss which otherwise can't be deducted, as is the case when a person returns from a vacation and exchanges his left over currency from that trip. Investors in dinars can deduct ordinary losses in Section 988, but few expect a loss.
Lords of Finance: The Bankers Who Broke the World by Liaquat Ahamed is about how the four leading central bankers from the U.S., U.K., France and Germany navigated in and out of WWI and financed recoveries and German reparations. These central bankers went off and on the gold and new dollar standards by manipulating their exchange and interest rates and much more. This is how money and power (military and otherwise) go hand in hand.
Our current situation begs the question: Did the Bush administration plan on, and is the Obama administration still considering, paying for part or all of the Iraq war by collecting taxes from the revaluation of the dinar?
If this scheme has any resemblance of reality, it could be an interesting revenue raiser for the government, and I know the government is hunting for revenue raisers and closing of tax loopholes.
Maybe the story here is just that it's a scam. But, if rumors in the marketplace are true, and the dinar does revalue and allow conversion for most to pre-war levels, what are the ramifications for the government, Iraq, the military, investors and taxpayers? Also, what's holding up the revaluation? Can Iraq handle it?
It does sound like a happy ending which makes me suspicious. How much tax revenue do U.S., state and local governments stand to collect? How many former and current military personnel and contractors stand to become millionaires overnight?
