Leasing Farm Equipment

Equipment leasing permits control, without ownership, of productive assets. Control, not ownership, is the critical issue in efficient production. Farmers concerned with profitability should consider leasing as an option offering control of farm equipment. Whether or not leasing offers more profit than ownership depends on several financial factors discussed in this guide.
For many farms, equipment expense is the largest single production expense. As the purchase price of power equipment such as tractors and combines increases, the need for alternative financing systems also increases. Financial institutions and equipment manufacturers are supplying additional financing in the form of equipment leases.
Equipment manufacturers use leasing to move equipment. Their leasing programs change over time to reflect the extent of their desire to move more equipment. For this reason it is imperative that farmers continually evaluate whether a lease or a purchase would be a better financial decision. Deciding that one option was better than another last year does not mean it will be so this year or next year.
Several types of leasing arrangements exist to meet specific needs of farmers seeking control of equipment. Typically, new equipment leases are used for more expensive items such as tractors and combines, although less expensive items such as drills and grain carts can also be leased. Most leases are for new equipment, but leases are also available for used equipment. Whereas national financial institutions lease primarily new equipment, local financial institutions such as banks are also willing to lease used equipment.
Leasing basics
The person who owns equipment being leased to another is called the lessor. The lessee is the person who actually has possession and control of the equipment for the duration of the lease. In an equipment lease, the farmer is the lessee.
An equipment lease contract specifies the following points:
- The customer and dealer names and information
- The exact piece of equipment being leased
- The beginning and ending dates of the lease
- The base hours (defined as the annual number of hours the equipment is expected to be used)
- The payment due the lessor for use in excess of the base hours
- The dollar amount the farmer must pay to purchase the equipment at the end of the lease if the purchase option is exercised
- The advance payment required
- The periodic payment (monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually)
- Miscellaneous terms of the agreement, including such things as charges for excess wear and tear and evidence of insurance on the equipment
Most businesses distinguish a lease from a rental agreement by the duration of control. Equipment leases typically provide control of the equipment for one or more years; rental agreements typically for less than year.
Under a typical rental agreement, the farmer agrees to pay a specified rate for every hour registered on the hour meter of the tractor. Frequently a minimum number of hours is also specified. The beginning and ending dates of the rent restrict the duration of the rental period.
Some farmers mistake a rollover purchase for a lease. In a rollover purchase, a farmer enters into an arrangement with the equipment dealer to purchase a piece of equipment with the expectation of trading it in after one year for another, newer piece of equipment. Under these arrangements a farmer pays a specified dollar amount each year for the right to "upgrade" each year. The farmer is not obligated to upgrade each year and can decide at any time to keep the current piece of equipment and stop the rollover arrangement.
Leasing background
An understanding of what occurs with a lease helps a farmer understand how to negotiate and enter into a lease. Because different financial institutions enter into different contracts with equipment dealers, not every lease will be the same. However, the basics discussed below cover the majority of the leases a farmer will encounter.
When a farmer enters into a lease for a specific piece of equipment, a sale occurs behind the scenes. The equipment dealer sells the machine to a financing company. The financing company (lessor) then leases the equipment to the farmer (lessee) signing the lease agreement. The farmer signs the lease agreement in the equipment dealer's office and may not fully realize that the lessor is someone other than the dealer who finalized the deal. The dealer, in effect, is an intermediary for the financial institution (Figure 1).
Figure 1
In a farm equipment lease, the equipment dealer is an intermediary between the farmer, or lessee, and a financial institution, the lessor.
Because the dealer is actually selling the equipment to a financial institution, the dealer must have an agreed upon method of pricing the equipment at the time of the lease. This behind-the-scenes pricing of the equipment reduces, but does not eliminate, the amount of room for negotiating leases. The dealer can usually mark up the "selling price" by various percentages. The dealer markup determines which table of lease factors is used to calculate the periodic lease payment.
The table of lease factors is provided by the financial institution to the equipment dealer conducting the lease. Once the equipment dealer has determined the selling price to the financial institution, that price is multiplied by a lease factor dependent upon the number of hours the equipment will be used in a year and the duration of the lease. There is no negotiation of the lease factors — only the hours and duration.
Many equipment dealers standardize the leases they offer to farmers. The dealer is given flexibility by the financial institution to enter into leases of different duration and annual hours of use. However, the dealer might offer a leasing plan in which all of these issues are presented as fixed. Knowing that the dealer has flexibility allows a farmer to inquire about other plans that the dealers may not have initially offered.
Most of the time, equipment dealers offer leases backed by the credit company of the equipment manufacturer. However, local and national financial institutions also offer equipment leases. If a financial institution other than the equipment manufacturer's credit company is the one purchasing the equipment and leasing it to the farmer, the behind-the-scenes activity may not occur. Rather the farmer would make the best deal possible for the purchase of the equipment, take that price to the alternative financial institution and negotiate a lease. The dealer does not act as the intermediary in this situation.
Points of negotiation
When considering an equipment lease, several points can be negotiated. First, the farmer can attempt to lower the sales price of the equipment being sold to the financial institution. Lowering the sales price will affect the annual lease payment and the end-of-lease purchase option price. Additionally, the farmer can negotiate the duration of the lease, in years, and the number of hours of use per year.
Select the lease duration that fits your farming plans for the next several years. Some farmers choose a lease duration based on some planned change in their business, such as retirement, an expansion, or a change in loan obligations. If there is no known need to change equipment in 3 or 4 years and if controlling an asset outside of its warranty period is no problem, consider a longer lease. Ask the dealer to give the financial particulars of different lease durations for your financial evaluation.
Select the number of hours that minimizes the total equipment cost over the life of the lease. Because the farmer (lessee) will not be reimbursed for "unused" hours, it is best not to overestimate the hours of use. However, if you underestimate the hours, an hourly charge is assessed for every hour in excess of the agreed upon annual use. Because leases have limited hourly choices (e.g., 400, 600 and 800 hours per year), it is important to evaluate which option is least expensive.
The hourly charge for exceeding the expected annual hours of use is relatively high. For example, if a farmer needs a tractor for 475 hours per year, it might be cheaper to pay for a 600-hour lease than to choose the 400-hour lease and pay the extra charge for the additional 75 hours (Figure 2). An automated spreadsheet is available to assist a farmer in choosing an optimum lease annual number of hours option if the expected use is not one of the options offered in a lease agreement. (See Decision-making aids section.)
Figure 2
Here, 475 hours of equipment use would cost less with a 600-hour lease than with a 400-hour lease plus per-hour charges.
Note that the combination of the years of lease and the annual hours of use will affect the end-of-lease purchase option price. If the equipment is purchased at the end of the lease, the excess hour charges are frequently waived. The option price can be an important factor influencing the lease/purchase option. It is more desirable if the end-of-lease purchase price is less than the projected fair market value of the equipment at the end of the lease.
Plan for negotiation
A plan for negotiation might include the following steps:
- Make your best deal on the purchase of the piece of equipment you are interested in controlling.
- Ask dealers about equipment leases they offer. Obtain copies of their lease contracts along with quotes of annual lease payments for various lease durations and annual use. Note that the best purchase deal might include trade-in of used equipment, whereas a lease may not allow trade-ins.
- Ask dealers about options for financing purchases, including interest rate and length of loan.
- Ask your local banker how the purchase would affect your financial status and what interest rate would be charged for a loan, if needed.
- Ask your local banker or a national finance company if they are interested in purchasing the equipment and leasing it to you. If so, obtain their lease contract and annual payment estimates for various lease durations and annual use.
- Analyze the alternatives (purchase financed by either the dealer or a financial institution or lease financed by either the dealer or a financial institution) for cash flow and profitability.
- Before signing any lease, discuss the terms of the arrangement with your banker and tax adviser and ask how the lease will affect your financial and tax situation.
Other concerns
A farmer needs to consider the following additional concerns when entering into a lease:
- Trade-in of used equipment
- Cash flow
- Property tax on leased equipment
- Early termination of lease
- Financial statement impact
- Income tax implications
Although a trade-in is often accepted as a down payment on purchases, some equipment dealers do not allow trade-ins when leasing equipment. Having to sell, rather than trade, used equipment may have adverse effects on tax liabilities. Equipment no longer needed should be traded or sold rather than left to further depreciate on the farm.
Cash flow
Leases may offer some cash flow relief by not requiring a down payment. However, recognize that the first lease payment is due up front, when a down payment is usually due. Because many leases do not allow trade-ins, cash flow for leases may be no better than for purchases.
Property tax
In most leases the financial institution pays the property tax on the lease. If so, the tax is included in the lease factor used to determine the lease payment. For cash flow reasons, the farmer should clarify who is responsible for paying property tax. When evaluating leases from different companies, make sure they are treating payment of property tax similarly so that a fair comparison can be made.
Early termination
If the farmer (lessee) terminates the lease before the end of the contract, miscellaneous expenses will be incurred. Basically, the financial institution that owns the leased equipment will repossess and dispose of it by sale or another lease and charge the original lessee with any financial loss and costs incurred. In some instances, the end-of-lease purchase price is sufficiently below expected market value that other farmers would be interested in taking over the lease for the privilege of purchasing the equipment at the end of the lease.
Impact on financial statement
Equipment leases affect a business's balance sheet differently than ownership does. The purchase of expensive items such as tractors and combines can significantly affect a farmer's borrowing capacity. A purchase may adversely affect a farmer's debt-to-asset ratio, whereas a lease does not. However, annual lease payments are financial obligations and should be disclosed to your banker when evaluating your financial condition. Many bankers ask borrowers to reveal lease obligations and use them to evaluate the borrowers' short-term financial strength.
Income tax
Lease payments are deductible on IRS Form 1040 Schedule F. With a purchase, a farmer deducts depreciation on Form 4567 and interest on Schedule F. Purchasing allows the option of Section 179 expensing, which puts much of the tax depreciation deduction at the beginning of the asset life.
Decision-making aids
A decision-making aid (Microsoft Excel spreadsheet titled "Equipment Lease Analyzer") has been developed to help evaluate the economic differences between leasing and purchasing equipment. The Excel spreadsheet allows a farmer to enter pertinent information on a purchase and a lease. The computer numerically and graphically compares the alternatives on the criteria of cash flow and profitability. Usually a lease is better or worse than a purchase on both criteria, but occasionally one option offers better cash flow while the other offers lower cost.
The same spreadsheet has an optimization section that allows a farmer to decide what annual hour election to choose. It determines the break-even number of hours for different elections. If you think you will use fewer than the break-even hours, choose the lesser election; if more, the greater election.

Although leasing of land has been well accepted in agriculture for generations, leasing of equipment has become widespread only in the last few decades. The cost equipment, together with the cost of land, has become a significant barrier to entry and longevity in farming. Leasing allows farmers to control productive assets without owning them.
Leases fit into the business activity of some farmers and not others. The many decisions that go into evaluating a lease versus a purchase are difficult. But to maximize profit, the time and effort spent in comparing the two options is worthwhile.
Understanding the points of negotiation and potential effects of each decision along the way will allow farmers to make the decisions that best fit their situation.

Itzhak Perlman, who played his first violin recital in Orange County in a long while Sunday afternoon, is a smooth entertainer. The description is not meant to slight. Classical music has but four or five names these days that can sell out a hall on the basis of their names alone, Perlman among them. We could use a few more Perlmans.
His Philharmonic Society concert was a benefit for the Rotary Club's "End Polio Now" campaign, a portion of the ticket sales donated to the cause. (Perlman contracted polio in his childhood.) Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall was filled to the rafters, with spillover seats on stage, some at $250 a pop.
Perlman's audience has a great affection for him, partly because he meets them halfway. He plays serious music with a light touch and light music with a light touch and throws in a few jokes. He makes what he does approachable even as he wows, and there seems no harm in that.
At 67, when violinists' skills can start to deteriorate, Perlman has lost little or nothing of his technique. His program Sunday was fashioned as a meal: salad, entrée, a plate of fruit and cheese, dessert. Everyone went home happy and not too full, including your reviewer.
His playing this day was not especially deep, but it was satisfying. That is because the ease (or the appearance of ease) with which he played never slouched to mere casualness. The pieces unfolded logically and sensibly, and Perlman remained engaged. Rohan De Silva was his superb accompanist, the patrician to Perlman's friendly informality.
He opened with Beethoven's Violin Sonata in D, Op. 12, No. 1, an early and slender work which Perlman had the sense not to make too much of. He allowed the simple tunes to sing and played the ornamental parts pleasantly, the whole propelled by a graceful, rhythmic élan.
His performance of César Franck's famous A-major Sonata was not the be-all and end-all of this often intense work, but it had other fine qualities. He added some richness to his tone and his phrasing became a little gooier and slipperier. And yet it all remained tightly controlled in its way, the arguments strongly directed but never overstated, the pace never dawdling but also never pushed. The climaxes were crisp. He played the Allegretto poco mosso in a most lovely strolling tempo. An elegant reading.
After intermission, Perlman pulled out Tartini's "Devil's Trill" Sonata as arranged by Fritz Kreisler and played it as a work by Kreisler – that is, not as a Baroque piece but a Romantic one that evoked the Baroque. There was a wonderful nonchalance here, the nonchalance of an ice skater all loosened up and executing a triple axel without effort. It wasn't just dashed off, though; the piece had a nice snap in Perlman's care.
Then came the part of the program where Perlman announces his selections from the stage. This is an old bit, but it's still fun. He and De Silva each brought out a huge pile of music and between themselves discussed (or appeared to discuss) what they'd play next. Perlman then introduced the selections with a little joke.
The violin repertoire is rich in these short, often cute showpieces and bonbons, and it's a shame we don't get to hear them very often anymore. Throughout his career Perlman has shown a fondness for them, and Sunday he played them winningly. They were Kreisler's charming "Andantino in the Style of Martini," Wieniawski's darting Caprice in A minor, John Williams' touching Theme from "Schindler's List," and Ferdinand Ries' blistering "Perpetual Motion" ("a Ries piece," Perlman punned).
And then, promptly at 5 o'clock, two hours after starting time (though he began a little late), he made his exit, leaving us wanting more, the true entertainer to the end.

New Lung Cancer Screening Guidelines for Heavy SmokersJan 11, 2013
The American Cancer Society has published new guidelines that recommend doctors discuss lung cancer screening with people who meet certain criteria that put them at high risk for developing the disease. These high risk patients must be aged 55 to 74 years and in fairly good health, have a smoking history equivalent to a pack a day for 30 years, and currently smoke or have quit within the past 15 years.
If people decide to be screened, the recommendation specifies that testing should be done with a low dose computed tomography (CT) scan and take place at a facility with experience in lung cancer screening. And it emphasizes that screening is not a substitute for quitting smoking. The most effective way to lower lung cancer risk is to stay away from tobacco.
The guidelines were published early online January 11, 2013 in CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians.
Evidence backs guidelines
The recommendations are based on a careful review of several studies that looked at low-dose CT screening. The most significant was the National Lung Screening Trial (NLST). This study included more than 50,000 people aged 55 to 74 who were current or former smokers with at least a 30 pack-year history of smoking (equal to smoking a pack a day for 30 years, or 2 packs a day for 15 years). The NLST found that people who got low-dose CT had a 20% lower chance of dying from lung cancer than those who got chest x-rays. However, other trials found no benefit from screening.
The screening in the NLST was done at large teaching hospitals with access to a lot of medical specialists and comprehensive follow-up care. Most were National Cancer Institute cancer centers.
None of the studies included people who never smoked. Although non-smokers can develop lung cancer, there is not enough evidence to know whether screening them would be helpful or harmful. Likewise, it is not known if screening would help people who were lighter smokers than those in the studies, or those of different ages. That's why the guideline doesn't recommend screening for these groups.
Weighing risks and benefits
The idea of screening for lung cancer is appealing, because it has the potential of finding the cancer earlier, when it's easier to treat. Screening is done in people who do not have any symptoms of cancer. Lung cancer symptoms don't usually appear until the cancer is already advanced and not able to be cured. But screening carries risks that may outweigh the benefits for everyone except those at higher than average risk for lung cancer, often heavy smokers. Age is also a risk factor.
One drawback of a low-dose CT scan is that it finds a lot of abnormalities that turn out not to be cancer but that still need to be assessed to be sure. (About 1 out of 4 people in the NLST had such a finding.) This may lead to additional scans or even more-invasive tests such as needle biopsies or even surgery to remove a portion of lung in some people. A small number of people who do not have cancer or have very early stage cancer have died from these tests. There is also a risk that comes with increased exposure to radiation.
Because of these risks, CT scanning is not recommended for people who are less heavy smokers, or who are younger than 55 or older than 74. It is not recommended for people who have other serious diseases that limit their life expectancy. The guidelines say doctors need to discuss all the potential risks, benefits, and limitations of screening with patients who meet the criteria and help them make an informed decision about whether they should get screened. If people do decide to get screened, they should get screened every year through age 74, as long as they are still healthy.
Screening should only be done at facilities that have the right type of CT scan and that have a great deal of experience in LDCT scans for lung cancer screening. The facility should also have a team of specialists that can provide the appropriate care and follow-up of patients with abnormal results on the scans.
Quitting is still best
The recommendations emphasize that screening for lung cancer is not a substitute for quitting smoking. The most important thing anyone can do to reduce their risk of lung cancer is not smoke or use any form of tobacco. Most lung cancer cases occur in people who smoke or used to smoke.
Besides lung cancer, tobacco use also increases the risk for cancers of the mouth, lips, nose and sinuses, voice box, throat, esophagus, stomach, pancreas, kidney, bladder, uterus, cervix, colon/rectum, ovary, and acute myeloid leukemia. In the US, tobacco use is responsible for nearly 1 in 5 deaths; this equals about 443,000 early deaths each year.

George Marrone renovates a A Mid-Century Modern home in Brandywine Hundred, Delaware
Rat Pack Redo: Blend 1950s cool with Frank Lloyd Wright, and this is what you get.
(page 1 of 4)
George Marrone was born a decade after mid-century modern design left its cool, indelible stamp on architecture and interior design.
He grew up in a two-story Colonial-style home in Brandywine Hundred. As a young man, he bought his own traditional house on Philadelphia's Main Line.
But Marrone yearned for a home in sync with his inner hipster, a structure with the lean, spare lines of a Noguchi table, the uncluttered swoosh of an Eames chair, the unadulterated sophistication of a Rat Pack bar.
"I don't know what my inspiration was, only that I have always loved the style," he says.
Indeed. His niece and nephew used Lego blocks to make him a model of Fallingwater, Frank Lloyd Wright's contemporary masterpiece in western Pennsylvania. Marrone stalked 1950s lamps and 1960s
pottery on eBay and stowed the pieces in the attic after the packages arrived, hoping some day he would find a home for them.
"Wherever I went, I would drive around looking for modern houses," he recalls.
It is unlikely that he would have cruised by the mid-century property tucked deep in a secluded, heavily wooded enclave that backs to Shellpot Creek in Brandywine Hundred.
But when he spied the house two years ago through an online real estate site, he was immediately smitten.
A personal visit sealed the deal.
Marrone walked through a broad entry into a foyer with a flagstone floor. A sweeping, curved staircase led to a bridge-like corridor overlooking the living areas. He gazed up and was captivated by a soaring cathedral ceiling of natural Douglas fir with big, beefy beams.
"I knew I had to live in this house, even though I already owned a perfectly nice house," he says. "Everything I wanted was right here."
The house was built in 1959 by esteemed Delaware artist Carolyn Blish and her husband, the late DuPont executive Stanley Blish. The 1.5-acre lot was located next to a home owned by the painter's father.
"We loved the setting, being so close to nature," recalls Blish, now 82 and living in Lancaster, Pa. "We picked the plan out of a magazine and thought, wow, this is really cool."

The HTC Dev is starting 2012 off with a bang by adding support to unlock the bootloaders for five more HTC devices. If you own the HTC Wildfire S, Wildfire, Salsa, Merge or Desire you will now be able to unlock your handset using HTC's official bootloader unlock tool directly from the HTC Dev website. HTC's website indicates that there are currently 22 different HTC devices which can be unlocked, but that number should continue to grow as the HTC Dev team adds older phones to the list.
We'd like to remind you that using HTC's official unlock tool carries the same (if not more) risks as rooting and unlocking your phone with tools created by the Android development community. Just make sure you know all the potential risks before you embark on your bootloader unlocking adventure.
Have any of you used HTC's official bootloader unlocking tool on our phone?

A canonical precept, when employed, must be delivered in the presence of the vicar general or two others as witnesses (Cum magnopere, VII).
Ecclesiastical documents are attested or witnessed as circumstances require, e.g., by the chancellor, clerk of the court, prothonotary apostolic .
A witness is more easily admitted in favour of a person than against him, and in civil than in criminal trials. Hence, those who are engaged in a similar cause, a judge who has adjudicated a like case, etc. False witnesses are those who under oath prevaricate or conceal the truth that they are bound to tell: they are guilty of perjury, and if convicted are infamous in law.
Notaries or others by altering or falsifying documents substantially become guilty of forgery.
When I was a senior Naval officer I was constantly thinking strategically about world defense, security and the global economy.Clerics, unless compelled by civil authorities, are not allowed to testify against the accused when sentence of death is to be imposed (see IRREGULARITY).There are many exceptions to these general statements.In case either or both parties are unable for any cause to write, an additional witness is necessary.Catholics are incapable of entering into lawful wedlock ("Ne temere") except in the presence of a parish priest, or ordinary, or other priest duly delegated, and two witnesses.

Obama administration reportedly considering fines, trade penalties for cybertheft
WASHINGTON – The White House is reportedly considering fines and other trade penalties against China or any other country guilty of cyberattacks amid evidence of an unrelenting cyber espionage campaign linked to the Chinese government.
The Associated Press reported Wednesday that the actions are being considered as part of the Obama administration's response to a report that claimed the Chinese Army is behind a series of cyberattacks on U.S. companies.
Officials familiar with the administration's plans spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about the threatened action.
The Chinese government denies being involved in the cyberattacks cited in a cybersecurity firm's analysis of breaches that compromised more than 140 companies. On Wednesday, China's Defense Ministry called the report deeply flawed.
Mandiant, a Virginia-based cybersecurity firm, released a torrent of details Monday that tied a secret Chinese military unit in Shanghai to years of cyberattacks against U.S. companies. Mandiant concluded that the breaches can be linked to the People's Liberation Army's Unit 61398.
Military experts believe the unit is part of the People's Liberation Army's cybercommand, which is under the direct authority of the General Staff Department, China's version of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. As such, its activities would likely be authorized at the highest levels of China's military.
U.S. officials would not comment directly on the report Monday. But they said the U.S. is bulking up its cyber-defenses while stressing a new -- albeit controversial -- White House executive order aimed at improving the nation's ability to defend against cyberattacks.
State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland and White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said U.S. officials have started a dialogue with the "highest levels" of the Chinese government, including with "officials in the military."
"It is a major challenge for us in the national security arena," Carney said Monday, adding that it is known that foreign countries and companies "swipe" sensitive U.S. information.
The release of the Mandiant report, complete with details on three of the alleged hackers and photographs of one of the military unit's buildings in Shanghai, makes public what U.S. authorities have said less publicly for years. But it also increases the pressure on the U.S. to take more forceful action against the Chinese for what experts say has been years of systematic espionage.
"If the Chinese government flew planes into our airspace, our planes would escort them away. If it happened two, three or four times, the president would be on the phone and there would be threats of retaliation," said Shawn Henry, former FBI executive assistant director. "This is happening thousands of times a day. There needs to be some definition of where the red line is and what the repercussions would be."
Henry, the president of the security firm CrowdStrike, said that rather than tell companies to increase their cybersecurity, the government needs to focus more on how to deter the hackers and the nations that are backing them.
James Lewis, a cybersecurity expert at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said that in the past year the White House has been taking a serious look at responding to China. "This will be the year they will put more pressure on, even while realizing it will be hard for the Chinese to change. There's not an on-off switch," Lewis said.
In denying involvement in the cyberattacks tracked by Mandiant, China's Foreign Ministry said China, too, has been a victim of hacking, some of it traced to the United States. Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei cited a report by an agency under the Ministry of Information Technology and Industry that said in 2012 alone foreign hackers used viruses and other malicious software to seize control of 1,400 computers in China and 38,000 websites.
"Among the above attacks, those from the U.S. numbered the most," Hong said at a daily media briefing, lodging the most specific allegations the Chinese government has made about foreign hacking.
Cybersecurity experts say U.S. authorities do not conduct similar attacks or steal data from Chinese companies, but acknowledge that intelligence agencies routinely spy on other countries.
China is clearly a target of interest, said Lewis, noting that the U.S. would be interested in Beijing's military policies, such as any plans for action against Taiwan or Japan.
In its report, Mandiant said it traced the hacking back to a neighborhood in the outskirts of Shanghai that includes a white 12-story office building run by the army's Unit 61398.
Mandiant said there are only two viable conclusions about the involvement of the Chinese military in the cyberattacks: Either Unit 61398 is responsible for the persistent attacks, or they are being done by a secret organization of Chinese speakers, with direct access to the Shanghai telecommunications infrastructure, who are engaged in a multi-year espionage campaign being run right outside the military unit's gates.
"In a state that rigorously monitors Internet use, it is highly unlikely that the Chinese government is unaware of an attack group that operates from the Pudong New Area of Shanghai," the Mandiant report said, concluding that the only way the group could function is with the "full knowledge and cooperation" of the Beijing government.
The unit "has systematically stolen hundreds of terabytes of data from at least 141 organizations," Mandiant wrote. A terabyte is 1,000 gigabytes. The most popular version of the new iPhone 5, for example, has 16 gigabytes of space, while the more expensive iPads have as much as 64 gigabytes of space. The U.S. Library of Congress' 2006-10 Twitter archive of about 170 billion tweets totals 133.2 terabytes.
The Associated Press and Fox News' Barnini Chakraborty contributed to this report.

Seattle man crashes kid's pizza party, steals balloon animals
SEATTLE – Seattle police say they arrested a man who crashed an 8-year-old child's party, ate several pieces of pizza and took two balloon animals.
Parents told police they asked the 28-year-old man to leave after he joined the children's party at Green Lake on Wednesday evening. However, police say the shirtless, shoeless man refused and got into a "very heated" exchange with the families at the party. The families called police.
In a release on their website, police say the man appeared to be under the influence of a "potent relaxant of some kind."
Officers first checked to see if the man needed medical attention, then arrested him for investigation of theft.

If you like your bread with plenty of crust, you'll love grissini ("Greece-SEE-nee"), those long, finger-thin to pencil-thin crunchy bread sticks that are often served as munchies while you read the menu at Italian restaurants.
So it came as quite a surprise recently, while I was flipping through Carol Field's excellent cookbook, The Italian Baker, to discover a grissini recipe that was not only easy but surprisingly quick.
It made a modest amount - about two dozen sticks from just 3 1/2 cups of flour - and it required only a single, one-hour rise, so you can take it from the pantry to the table in just a couple of hours. What's more, forming them is neither finicky nor time-consuming: Slice a rectangle of dough into long, thin strips, and gently lift each one to a baking sheet, stretching it to bread stick length as you go. There's no need to roll them out or shape them precisely - they come up round when they rise in the oven; and if they show lovably eccentric irregularities in the finished product, why, that's grissini for you.
I started a batch around 4 p.m. and had them on the table for dinner at 7, and they were just as appetizingly crunchy and good - and just as hard to stop eating after one or two - as the ones made by the pros. If you love grissini as much as I do, even if you don't consider yourself an expert baker, you really owe it to yourself to try this recipe soon.
Field's book, by the way, is a classic that's been around since 1985, but for some reason I hadn't added it to my library until my friend Barb raved about it last year. Now I don't know why I waited so long. It's not just a bread book, featuring also Italian cookies, rolls, pizzas and focaccia and more. The grissini recipe alone is worth the price of admission, and its clear and workable presentation is typical of all Field's recipes. Highly recommended, even at this late date.
Happily, it's still in print, and still available from Amazon.com in hardcover for $24.15, a 31 percent discount from the $35 list price. If you'd like to buy it, purchases made using the following exact link will return us a small commission at WineLoversPage.com.
INGREDIENTS: (Makes about 20 breadsticks)
17 ounces (about 500g or 3 1/2 cups) bread flour (see note) plus additional flour for the bread board
1. Put the flour, sugar, salt and dry yeast in a mixing bowl; pour in the warm water and stir until the dough becomes a moist, shaggy mass. Knead for 5 to 10 minutes on a lightly floured bread board or counter top until the dough becomes smooth and elastic. Feel free to substitute a mixer with dough hook or food processor with steel blade for hand-kneading, although in these cases you'll want to finish up by hand. (NOTES: Field's recipe calls for malt syrup, a product I was unable to locate on short notice, so I substituted dark, strong brown sugar instead and it worked fine - note that we're using only a homeopathic dose that's barely perceptible in the finished bread. Field also calls for unbleached all-purpose flour; I used a mix of about half King Arthur all-purpose and half Italian Dopio Zero "00" flour from Puglia. Bread flour would work, too. Only a bread snob would notice any difference.)
2. Pat the kneaded dough out into a rough rectangle about 14 inches/36cm long by about 4 or 5 inches (10-12cm) wide. Make sure there's a little flour under the dough so it won't stick. Using your hands or a paper towel, gently paint the entire top surface with a little additional olive oil. Cover it closely with a piece of plastic wrap and cover that with a cloth dish towel. Leave to rise for an hour or so.
3. Preheat your oven to 450F (230C) and sprinkle a large baking sheet with cornmeal.
4. Don't punch down the dough. Using a sharp knife, pizza cutter or pastry scraper, cut it into about 20 to 24 strips about the width of your index finger. (Field suggests cutting the dough into four rectangles, then cutting each rectangle into five strips, but I simply eyeballed the strips and they came out fine. Gently lift each strip, one at a time, and you'll find it's easy to stretch them out into long, thin sticks. Drop them gently onto the cornmeal-sprinkled baking sheet and line them up - they'll rise a bit, but you can put them fairly close together, so they should all fit on a large sheet.
5. There's no need for further rising. Bake immediately at 450F (230C) for about 20 minutes, turning the sheet around midway in the process if they're not coloring evenly. If they're not golden brown at the end of that time, leave them in for a few more minutes. Remove to a rack for cooling and serve warm.
VARIATIONS: Field lists many options, ranging from sprinkling the dough with sesame seeds or poppy seeds before baking (I might also try coarse salt), making them with about two parts whole-wheat flour to one white, or working grated cheese, chopped fresh sage leaves or even chopped onions and lard into the dough before baking. You could also try making them pencil-thin, Try cutting them into 40 to 48 thin strips and, I would guess, reduce the baking time a bit, eyeballing and taste-testing them after 10 or 12 minutes to see how they're going. If you try it, let me know how it goes, but I'm happy with the thicker size for half the time and effort.)

Five Things That Make Us Want to Garden
We are about to start our garden; we're just waiting impatiently for the final frost-free date in our area. There are so many reasons to garden: The taste of fresh vegetables, the pleasure of watching new things grow, the smell of tomato plants and the color of chive blossoms. That's enough to make us look forward to getting our hands in the dirt.
But we've also been seeing some really great products for gardening that make us even more impatient. Here are a few inspiring things.
• 1 Food Map Containers - Containers on wheels! These are so great for apartment-dwellers and those of us in cold climates. You can wheel your herb garden in and out to avoid the cold. Also, these are currently on sale.
• 2 Garden Dibble - Do you know what a garden dibble is? It's a little tool for making evenly-sized holes for planting seeds and bulbs. You can just use a stick, of course, but this hand-turned and elegant little tool (that happens to look like a carrot!) would make a great gift for a gardener. It also has lines to help you poke holes at even depths.
• 3 Sunset's instructions on building a raised bed - We're taking over part of the little lawn to be a vegetable garden this year, and so raised beds are the way to go. We are also planning on attempting some cold-frame gardening later this year, so I really like these instructions that include inexpensive PVC pipe framing.
• 4 Avant-Gardener - Haha. Nice play on words, and nice design. Perfect for planting tomatoes in the sunshine.
• 5 Bionic Women's Garden Elite Gloves - Wow! These aren't high-tech sports equipment, appearances to the contrary. They're garden gloves! I usually just use an old pair of canvas gloves, but I have a ton of extra-spiky and difficult yard clearing to do this year, and I wonder if a $40 pair of gloves would make it easier. Any thoughts?
What's getting you excited about gardening this year?

"The government has misconstrued my practice as a place with a problem," Dr. Ona Colasante said, adding that an independent consultant from New York took a representative, random sampling of her patients' charts and "could not find anything that came close to a federal or civil crime," Colasante said.
On June 16, 2011, the day that the FBI raided Dr. Ona Colasante's family practice clinic in Gainesville, Michelle Newberry was going to the clinic for a stress test.
The FBI turned away Colasante's long-standing patient. "Apparently, that was my stress test," Newberry said Monday, at her last check-up at the Colasante clinic at 810 NW 16th Ave, which closes on Thursday. The FBI investigation is still ongoing, and Colasante, 56, decided to close because she said the investigation has injured her reputation and finances. Meanwhile, at least some of her patients hate to see her go.
"I'm really going to miss the environment here," Newberry said. "You just felt very comfortable — like a family."
"I think part of the problem with the medical world is that it's so caught up in regulations that old-fashioned medical practice is suffering," Newberry continued, adding that Colasante does lab work and X-rays in the same visit. "I like the all-around comprehensive nature of the clinic."
For patients like Carol Neff, that has been both life-saving and life-improving. Colasante X-rayed a spot on Neff's lung that turned out to be lung cancer, and she has helped Neff manage her depression.
"She's really good at the big things, but also the everyday things," Neff said.
Colasante's signature touch is asking her patients a lot of questions — not just about their physical health, but everything that might affect it.
"A family doctor pays attention to the whole world around the patient," Colasante said. "If you are going through a divorce, I understand why you have an outbreak of shingles or get sick."
Colasante says she still has not been told the precise reason for the raid and investigation. She suspects it might have something to do with the sale of her previous clinic in Hawthorne.
The Sun reported in August that Colasante believes the investigation regards Medicare fraud, based on questions asked of former patients and employees in Hawthorne.
"The government has misconstrued my practice as a place with a problem," she said, adding that an independent consultant from New York took a representative, random sampling of her patients' charts and "could not find anything that came close to a federal or civil crime," Colasante said.
The FBI confirmed that the case was still under investigation but would not disclose further details. One of Colasante's lawyers, Gilbert A. Schaffnit, said there have been no updates to the case since The Sun reported in August that Schaffnit had been meeting with federal prosecutors in Tallahassee.
Just a few weeks after the raid, Colasante's bank accounts were frozen. Several staff members have left since the FBI raid.
"I feel as though I can't run the practice in the way that's been best for patients in the past 20 years," Colasante said, explaining her philosophy of care: "I don't think family doctors should be referral centers. If you have an abnormal pap they send you to a gynecologist; asthma, a pulmonologist. But family doctors can do 80 percent of what needs to be done."
And that's especially important for people who might not otherwise be able to afford specialty services, she added. Many of Colasante's patients are on Medicaid.
"When you come here they treat you like you are somebody. It doesn't matter if you are on Medicaid," Yolanda Rutledge, 41, said. "I think it's (the closure) really unfair for the east side of Gainesville. It's going to hurt a lot of people."
As much as Colasante's patients mourn her upcoming absence, and she herself hates to go, the closure of her clinic will allow her to pursue a long-standing dream of helping out another underserved population — adults with autism and their families.
As the mother of four boys — one of whom is autistic — Colasante has long recognized the needs of autistic adults and their parents. She will pursue opening an "Autism Farm" south of Hawthorne.
As for Colasante's office supplies and equipment — which, among other things, include a bone dosimetry machine, X-rays, eight to nine big exam tables, syringes, medications and 16 computers — she is donating them to health clinics in Guatemala, where Colasante has visited rural clinics and participated in tropical medical conferences.
Celeste Segreste, a nurse practitioner at the Colasante clinic, also has worked with a group in Guatemala called Paramedics for Children, where much of the equipment and supplies will go. Segreste will be in the Peace Corps somewhere in Central or South America next spring.
Segreste, who has worked with Colasante since 2006, said she feels "a hodgepodge of emotions" about the clinic closing.
"For selfish reasons I would like to see the clinic stay open. There are so many old patients that have followed her … who also would have never have had access to these types of services all under one roof," Segreste said.
"On the other hand, Dr. Colasante had a dream (the Autism Farm) so I'm extremely happy that she will be able to continue with that, and serve another underserved (population)," Segreste continued, adding that at 61, she herself is thrilled to finally pursue her own long-standing dream of helping the underserved in the Peace Corps.

Londoners Through a Lens @ Getty Images Gallery
Photographs from 1900-1990 from the Getty Images Hulton Archive. This isn't a showcase of tourist hotspots or a roll-call of famous Londoners or even a chronological survey of photography in the capital. Some well-known names crop up, both in front of and behind the camera: the Beatles, the Kray brothers, Thurston Hopkins, Terry Fincher and Terry O'Neill. And some famous events: the Battle of Cable Street in 1936, the poll tax riots in 1990. Some iconic structures and places appear too: the Daily Express building, Trellick Tower, Eros, Petticoat Lane Market. The result is a portrait of London, but an idiosyncratic and inevitably incomplete one, where celebration and protest, the individual and the crowd, the momentous and the mundane all have their place. If you love London - you need to see this. Best of all, its FREE!

Newcastle confirm Gouffran deal
Newcastle have signed a second French player in the space of 24 hours after confirming the arrival of forward Yoan Gouffran from Bordeaux on a four-year deal.
Gouffran, 26, has joined for an undisclosed fee, agreeing a four-and-a-half year deal and his arrival comes on the same day as Newcastle unveiled defender Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa who joined from Montpellier on Tuesday.
Gouffran told the club's official website: "I am really proud to have joined this fantastic club. Throughout the last few years I have enjoyed every moment of my time at Bordeaux but all good things must come to an end and it was time for a new challenge.
"And the challenge of playing for one of the most famous teams in England, with all of its history and its famous support, is very exciting."
Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew added: "Yoan comes to the club with a great pedigree and, like the other signings we have made this month, is a player who will add considerable strength to our squad. I liked the look of him when we played Bordeaux at St James' Park earlier this season; pacy, direct and intelligent and those are qualities I like in a footballer.
"I am sure he will quickly adapt to the rigours and intensity of the Premier League and play an important role for us for the remainder of the season."

Markham Village Heritage Tour
Vinegar Hill Subdistrict
Aboriginal Presence in the Rouge Valley
Archaeological evidence found scattered across farmlands in the Rouge River watershed, including stone arrow points, tools and pottery fragments , confirms that Markham was occupied by Aboriginal people long before the settlement of Europeans. From 900 B.C. to 1650 A.D. (Late Woodland Period), Aboriginal communities migrated across the area in seasonal cycles to hunt, fish and gather food. Eventually, the farming of beans, squash and corn led to the establishment of villages.
Rouge Valley Mills and Vinegar Hill
From the early 19th into the early 20th century, two main grist mills dominated the area south of Highway 7; Markham Mills to the east and Glen Rouge Mill to the west. The construction of these mills resulted in the founding of a community of business owners and trades people, and the services to support them. Glen Rouge Mill was demolished about 1920. Markham Mills, later operated under the name Milne Brothers, continued to grind feed until 1933 when it burned down.
The steep incline of Main Street South, just south of Highway 7, is known locally as Vinegar Hill. There are several theories on the origin of the name. One is that barrel makers would fill barrels with vinegar and roll them down the hill to find out whose barrels would roll in the straightest line. Another theory is the area was named by the Irish settlers to commemorate the Battle of Vinegar Hill, which took place in Ireland in 1798.
Markham Agricultural Fair
Agricultural societies, based on the English model of improving agricultural methods, were established in Upper Canada in 1792. Over the next few decades, hundreds of these societies were founded including one in Markham in the 1840s.
Beginning in the 1850s, each society organized annual fairs to provide marketplaces for produce as well as opportunities to demonstrate innovations and exchange farming information. In 1865, Captain William Armstrong granted permission for an Agricultural Hall, or Crystal Palace, to be built on five acres of his land. The Markham Agricultural Fair was in this location at Main Street Markham South and Highway 7 until it relocated to McCowan Road near Elgin Mills Road in 1977. The then Town of Markham bought the original site in 1975.
Markham Village Subdistrict
Highway 7
In the early 1900s, automobiles began replacing horse-drawn vehicles and there were demands to improve the Ontario highway system. In 1920, the road from Sarnia to Guelph was designated a provincial highway, and Highway 7 began. It had crossed Markham Township and reached Peterborough by 1928, but was not completely finished until the early 1930s. In 1961, the highway reached Ottawa when a portion of Highway 15 was re-designated as Highway 7.
As a community on a provincial highway, Markham Village took advantage of improved access to both eastern and western Ontario. The Village also established services for travellers. The highway, now classified as a regional road, remains an important transportation corridor.
Stonehouse Robbery
On February 29, 1936, Edwin Stonehouse and his son James surprised three armed men attempting to rob their garage. A fight, gun battle and car chase along Highway 7 resulted, during which the robbers escaped. James survived but Edwin died later in hospital.
The crime was eventually linked to career criminal Norman "Red" Ryan and his accomplices Harry Checkley and Edward McMullen. Ryan and Checkley were killed soon after during a robbery in Sarnia. The manhunt for McMullen continued and he died in a gun battle with border officials while attempting to cross into the United States.
