The fuel and fertilizer markets face more price volatility than seen in the past 5-10 years.
Purchasing fuel and fertilizer supplies ahead should pay off this winter as prices start to swing higher. Since July 1, prices for both products jumped considerably, causing some concern that last winter's frenzied energy crisis with skyrocking natural gas prices and high fuel costs would return.
Fuel economists predict that the markets will remain volatile. Any disruption in production creates big price swings. Considering the potential for high fuel and fertilizer prices and a tight agricultural economy, growers will need to use smart strategies for their fuel and fertilizer purchases this year.
Take Team FIN member Bob Zarse, for example. When LP gas prices dropped this summer, he bought enough to fill his grain dryers' tanks, about 5,000 gal. The Reynolds, IN, grower also planned to buy anhydrous ammonia early before harvest for fall application. In addition, he will watch anhydrous prices this winter and lock in a low price for next spring's crop needs. Pre-buying fertilizer paid off last winter because Zarse avoided high anhydrous ammonia prices.
Buy ahead
"Farmers have doubled their energy efficiency. They have cut their fuel requirements in half across all of agriculture from the late 1970s to now."
Doug Tiffany, ag economist, University of Minnesota
"Experience says that we will see equal to or greater volatility in the market," reports Mike Derickson, manager of farm fuels for Country Energy, owned by Cenex Harvest States and Farmland Industries. "If you forward contract, you don't have to worry about it. Farmers know what they need (and can buy ahead at lower prices). We're doing everything from our perspective for a normal year. There will be plenty of product in the pipeline to meet demand."
But problems could crop up if everyone waits. "Most pipelines are 6 to 8 in. wide and the product travels as fast as you can walk. So you really have to plan out supply," Derickson says.
An energy analyst from Growmark, another big supplier of fuel and fertilizer, also suggests locking in supplies early at low prices. Randy Miller recommends buying diesel and heating oil supplies ahead to avoid any surprises over the winter, although he expects prices on all fuel and energy to be "calmer" than they were last year. "I'm thinking we're not going to see as much volatility as we did a year ago," he says.
Good news, bad news
Fuel economists credit a slow economy for the summer's price softening. "The biggest factor is we have a cooled-off economy that will help moderate petroleum prices," Derickson says. "In the spring, things were heating up and that caused the upward pressure we saw."
Fuel economists partly blame the spring climb in fuel prices on refineries, which conducted normal maintenance when heavy driving demand built. "If the inventories don't build as fast as the experts think, then they bid the price up to cover their short positions," Derickson explains. "That helped cause the price increases we saw last spring. People were worried; we had a strong economy."
While things quieted down, recent refinery problems in the Midwest and the Rocky Mountain area caused another swing in prices during July and August. Prices should again adjust down until the next disruption that brings on another price spike. That may be a cold winter. Derickson says a colder-than-normal winter is being predicted for the northern U.S.
Natural gas outlook
"The big driver for nitrogen prices was the spike in natural gas," reports Rich Pottorff, Doanes chief economist. "Natural gas prices went over $10/million btus. They are now $3.50. So we've seen a dramatic turnaround in the cost of feedstocks for nitrogen production."
Last year's natural gas price increase was not unexpected. "The fertilizer industry saw a natural gas spike coming, but not to $10," Pottorff continues. "They have been talking about the growing demand for natural gas for the last couple years. But the magnitude of the going up surprised everybody."
Pottorff predicts that fertilizer prices won't be as high as they were last spring and that "availability will be reasonably adequate."
Growmark's energy analyst adds that natural gas stocks have been building this summer, better than last year. "At least we're heading into the winter with natural gas supplies that look improved over a year ago," Miller says.
Also helping to keep costs down is a soft demand for fertilizer. "Crop prices are low and farmers aren't exactly rushing out to apply extra fertilizer in these kinds of economic situations," Pottorff says.
But long term, Pottorff believes demand for natural gas will go up and fertilizer prices will follow. At some point, he says, fertilizer production will then move offshore to lower production costs.
His advice: "It makes sense to pre-price some fertilizer this fall for next spring's [fieldwork]. The upside risk is pretty big."
Diesel fuel prices
If you stocked up on diesel fuel, hopefully you did it when prices traditionally hit bottom during July. "Historically, we see higher diesel and heating oil prices from August through early fall," Miller explains. Then weather affects prices until late February or March, when prices back off.
He suggests growers forward contract diesel in the summer when prices are low. Many cooperatives offer pricing tools to lock in a price.
The problem with petroleum is the industry has not built new refineries, Derickson says. "And demand has caught up to the peak levels of 1978 when demand in this country reached 20 million barrels/day," he says.
Bottom line
Reducing fuel and fertilizer expenses is important to any grower's bottom line. According to financial records for the year 2000 from 1,800 Minnesota farms, fuel and oil cost an average $11.23/corn acre. Fuel for corn drying cost $5.03/corn acre, and fertilizer cost $41.87/corn acre. Fuel expenses were less for soybean production, averaging $8.87/soybean acre. Fertilizer cost $4.26/soybean acre.
Growers have been careful users of energy, however. "Farmers have been thoughtful about fuel use," reports Doug Tiffany, ag economist, University of Minnesota. "Farmers have focused on cutting tillage operations and converting to more fuel-efficient diesel tractors, combines and trucks since the late 1970s."
Farmers also have purchased other farm equipment with energy efficiency in mind. For example, grain dryers now use microprocessors to prevent overdrying. Heating and ventilation equipment in livestock facilities use sensors to precisely control the environment without wasting fuel and electricity.
"Farmers have doubled their energy efficiency," Tiffany says. "They have cut their fuel requirements in half per unit of output across all of agriculture from the late 1970s to the present."

SANTA MARIA, Calif. -- Larry Dixon has been named the driver of the Alan Johnson Al-Anabi Racing Top Fuel Dragster effective immediately, it was announced today. Jason McCulloch will be the team's Top Fuel crew chief.
Dixon is a two-time NHRA Top Fuel Champion having won the title in 2002 and '03. He joined Don Prudhomme Racing in 1988 as a crew member and worked his way into the cockpit earning his Top Fuel license in 1994. He was named NHRA Rookie of the Year in 1995.
The Indianapolis resident has recorded 43 NHRA wins in 83 final rounds and is third on the NHRA's all-time Top Fuel winners list. He finished second in the 2008 NHRA Countdown to the Championship, and in 2007 he finished fourth.
"I'm very excited and looking forward to this opportunity and a new chapter in my career," Dixon said. "I had a great time in my 20 years at Prudhomme Racing, and I am thankful for the opportunities I had in that time. Now I'm ready to start this new chapter in my life; it's a wonderful opportunity, and I feel very blessed to have the ability to take care of my family for the long haul.
"It's a new team, and everybody will be in a new position. It could take us a while to gel as a team, but everyone on this team has won at least one championship in previous ventures so I'd like to think we can hit the ground running."
McCulloch, 37, comes to Alan Johnson Al-Anabi Racing after six seasons with Don Schumacher Racing where he was the assistant crew chief on the Army Top Fuel Dragster driven by Tony Schumacher. McCulloch's father, Ed, drove for Larry Minor in the 1980s, and Jason McCulloch was a crew member on that team. Dixon's first drag racing job was also with that team. The driver and crew chief of the Alan Johnson Al-Anabi Top Fuel Dragster have been friends for more than 20 years.
"This opportunity is great for everyone involved," Jason McCulloch said. "I am the crew chief, but we'll still have Alan looking over everything. We have a very experienced crew; everyone on this top fuel team has at least five years of drag racing experience, and seven of the eight guys also worked together at Schumacher Racing.
"Our goal is to return to the level of excellence we all became accustomed to in our Army Team days. When we get there, we hope to have similar results. We definitely have our work cut out for us because everything we have and are getting is new. We are truly building this team from the ground up. It's exciting; it's a once in a lifetime experience."
"To think that I started my career at the same place and time as Jason, and now we're together as driver and crew chief of a top fuel team is amazing," Dixon said. "We never imagined this would happen, but I'm looking forward to being able to give him his first win as a crew chief, hopefully sooner rather than later."
After more than five years with Don Schumacher Racing, legendary NHRA crew chief Alan Johnson returns to team ownership when Alan Johnson Al-Anabi Racing debuts in 2009 as a two-car NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series team with one entry in both Top Fuel and Funny Car competition. In September, Del Worsham and Aaron Brooks were named the team's Funny Car driver and crew chief, respectively.
Johnson is widely considered one of the most innovative and successful crew chiefs in NHRA Top Fuel racing. During his just-concluded tenure with Schumacher Racing, he led driver Tony Schumacher to five consecutive Top Fuel titles. On the way to this year's championship, Johnson and Schumacher's Top Fuel dragster set records for consecutive wins (7), wins in a season (15), and consecutive round wins (31). In addition, Johnson won NHRA Top Fuel championships with driver Gary Scelzi in 1997, '98 and 2000.
"When I started thinking about who I wanted in the top fuel cockpit back in the fall, Larry Dixon was among the first drivers I considered," Johnson said. "A two-time champion is a great asset, but I knew there would be obstacles for Larry to overcome to make it happen. It's nice that Larry and Don were able to work things out between them so that Larry could take advantage of this opportunity. I appreciate Don Prudhomme's willingness to work with Larry, and we certainly wish him well with his new driver.
"I have worked with Jason for the last five seasons, and I know he is capable of great things. He is definitely ready to step into the crew chief position, and I know Jason and Larry will work well together. With any new team, it can take some time for the crew chief to earn the driver's confidence, but the fact that this driver and crew chief have been friends for 20 years should accelerate that process."
Johnson's 2006 championship will be forever remembered for "The Run;" a national record-setting run on the final pass at the last race of the season that gave Johnson's team the title. The memorable 4.428 second pass is regarded as the greatest single run in NHRA history by many drag racing historians.
After the Schumacher-driven U.S. Army dragster struggled in the first nine events of the 2003 season, Don Schumacher hired Johnson as the team's crew chief. The hire immediately paid off as Johnson guided the Army dragster to a win in his first event. Schumacher earned the Top Fuel trophy four times in 2003 en route to a third-place finish in points. Johnson and Schumacher earned NHRA Top Fuel titles in each of the next five seasons.
Alan Johnson Al-Anabi Racing is a partnership between Alan Johnson and His Highness Sheikh Khalid Bin Hamad Al Thani. The team will be a two-car NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Team fielding entries in Top Fuel and Funny Car competition. At the forefront of this partnership is Al Thani's goal to promote the domestic and international awareness of Motorsports in the nation of Qatar. Johnson is an eight-time NHRA Top Fuel Championship crew chief. The team is in the process of establishing its shop and a website.

AT&T has told the U.S. Congress that its customers agreed to host Carrier IQ tracking software on their cellphones in their contracts. You might recall that, after the scandal over warrentless surveillance broke in 2006, AT&T quietly changed their contract for internet service to say that it -- not its customers -- owns all the customers' internet records. Those concerned about privacy might consider whether AT&T merits their trust.

How would the Reg be described, I wonder?
An online news story that described a bank's method for authenticating website visitors was valid evidence of prior art, the UK Intellectual Property Office (IPO) has ruled. The date on the web page could be taken at face value, it said. The date and contents of internet disclosures should be assessed on the balance of …
How would the Reg be described, I wonder?
The fewer nonsense patents the better.
> Under the Patents Act 1977, a patent can be granted only if the invention "is not obvious
> to a person skilled in the art, having regard to the state of the art"
Has naff all to do with prior art.
RBS was prompting users for certain characters of their passwords as early as 2001, if not earlier.
When wishing to avoid keyboard input due to the potential existence of key logging software on the user's PC, would it not be an obvious step to change the entry to mouse-based entry of the type described in the patent application?
Even if the prior art claim cannot be proved to a high enough standard to satisfy EPO, surely this obvious invention should prevent the patent from being approved?
I'd have thought that the most bleedin' obvious evidence of this would be the NatWest online banking system which I've been personally using since some considerable time before 2005 and which uses that self-same system of authentication!
I think that they even sent me the original password (like wot HSBC proposed) and I changed it meself to something less memory-hostile. I can't be sure, like I said it was a while back.
Failing that, I think Mastercard's SecureCode online transaction authentication system may be of earlier provenance too. Guess how that one works?
I thought all magazines/papers that were published in the UK had to have an archival copy lodged at the British Library ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Library#Legal_deposit ) .... Or is Computing not actually published in the UK?
If not there, then certainly in the Library of Congress on this side of the pond.
BTW: Any chance we could borrow this Micklewright chap for a couple of years? We could use somebody with some sense to straighten out our patent office.
[This: "Under the Patents Act 1977, a patent can be granted only if the invention is not obvious to a person skilled in the art, having regard to the state of the art" has naff all to do with prior art.]
state of the art = prior art up to the date of filing
The question of obviousness is a subjective test based upon the state of the art: what did the state of the art teach the unimaginative skilled person to do up to the date of filing?
I'd have thought the UKIPO would would kill this application as a matter of routine under the Macrossan/Aerotel test (software-only invention), and the EPO would kill this application as a matter of routine under their standard 'the business person thought of it' (lack of inventive step) rejection.
Admittedly, this development about admissibility of evidence at the UKIPO is worrying, though. I've certainly seen a lot of opponents/infringers being rather 'liberal' with the authenticity and/or provenance of electronic evidence (web pages, emails, word/powerpoint/etc.). Demonstrably so, particularly when it's so easy to fiddle file metadata/stats.
Mine's the one with the EPC 2000 in the back pocket.
Balance of probability is right for that.
The claim that people should be awarded a patent unless you can prove conclusively that they SHOULDN'T be awarded the patent has done serious damage to business as they endlessly battle patent trolls.
It was based on a deliberate misinterpretation of TRIPS, the idea that "patents shall be available" implies that by default the patent is issued and you need to show why it isn't .
But that wording does not support that conclusion. And issuing patents to all comers has been a big mistake.
Er, yes it does have everything to do with prior art i.e. whether or not the invention has been described before. Firstly, the very first paragraph of the UK Patents Act 1977 states that:
1.-(1) A patent may be granted only for an invention in respect of which the following conditions are satisfied, that is to say -
(a) the invention is new;
(b) it involves an inventive step;
Secondly, how can something be judged to be obvious or not against prior art if the prior art describes EXACTLY the same invention? Surely that's beyond bleeding obvious and just a straight copy?
OK - who will admit that the requirement to type the 3rd, 9th and 15th character of a password guarantees you will write the bu%%&r down on a piece of paper?
This is just yet another prime example of the way the patent system is abused by those with the funds to throw at it. HSBC is not in any way attempting to protect its invention. It is simply and blatantly trying to undermine and block other businesses that use a reasonable (and *very* obvious) method of authentication.
There should be some potentially bad outcome for them for having the audacity to roll the dice and appeal the case. eg. if it is rejected again, as it should be, obviously, then they should be fined a large amount for wasting everybody's time.
Until there is a unified global patent register (like that will ever happen) the system will continue to be abused and misused by companies like this. It's a shame that we have to rely on the luck of the draw and getting an examiner with their head screwed on the right way.
What about the good old fashioned code wheels? You know the ones, turn the wheel to 3, 12 and 14 and enter the letters/words/symbol shown. Often used for computer game copy protection in the 80's + 90's.
Scrap software patents! The whole concept is ridiculous.
I thought the UK didn't do those?
... shouldn't be patentable in France either, then.
Since I opened a bank account in Japan (where I live) back in December 2003, I have been using internet banking with a similar password scheme at login. The "password" is a sequence of digits received from the bank, and at login I am asked to enter 6 of these digits at a particular order chosen randomly by the bank each time I access their website. Like, "please enter the digits #2, #6, #1, ..."
If business practices shouldn't be patentable in the first place, clearly it has long been a strategy of big corporations with a lawyer on payroll to patent even the most obvious things without any (proper?) research of prior art, abusing a system where the patent office is resource constrained and clearly cannot perform the necessary checks. I suggest the costs of successfully overturning a patent should be borne by the sneaky patent holder.
Add the selection of specified characters from set page and line numbers in a manual. Then there is the even older entry of the product key from the instllation media. The online versions are simply the obvious extention of that sort of idea.
Or the even older version of using page, line and character signifiers for a particular edition of a particular book (for some reason I have The Compleat Angler in mind) to transmit a coded message, which has been going on for countless years
First Direct ask for 3 random characters from your password when you call them - and have since 1991
The British library and a couple of university libraries are supposed to get all the copyright published material - but the fine for not doing so is tiny and the libraries don't want to pay to file and store a dozen 600page ad filled computer mags every week so they don't chase them up.
They also hate dealing with books that contain disks and books with odd shapes or binding so a lot of computer books and manuals never get archived which is why you can find 1000s of books of Victorian poetry in the library but not the technical manual for the original IBM PC.
...may eventually come to include "habitually attaches a digital timestamp to its pages". It may not be an option on the average web-server today (I don't know) but it is clearly technically possible and once programmed in it would be trivial to enable.
The court is right to take a different view of web versus printed media. The whole game-changing nature of the web arises from the very low cost of publication (and re-publication after editing). I can certainly foresee a future where a court would presume (in the absence of other evidence) that an unsigned website was unsigned for a reason and couldn't be trusted.
assuming its in there, the probability of fiddling with information and dates would be very low.
Indeed, the UK doesn't do "pure" software patents at all. If the invention is implemented in software only (as in: capable of running on bog standard hardware, with no effect outside the bog standard hardware), then it's, to all intents and purposes, garanteed curtains. Any practitionner would tell a client to not bother throwing £s at trying to patent it in the UK or Europe.
For that matter, neither does anywhere else, except the US. And even there, after the KSR case, it's certainly not the free ride everybody makes it out to be anymore, what with the USPTO taking baby steps towards a proper assessment of inventive step (obviousness), by arguing that everything and their dog is obvious.
I don't know where some of the above posters get this idea that patents are awarded as a matter of course (if anything, the article illustrates the point perfectly). It's harder to obtain grant than it's ever been.
Mine's the one with Title 35 USC in the back pocket.

CHICAGO (AP) Anthony Rizzo stayed at the plate for an extra second as his towering drive headed toward right field. The big first baseman just wanted to make sure it was fair before he got started on one enjoyable trip around the bases.
Rizzo hit a two-run homer in the 13th inning and the Chicago Cubs beat the Miami Marlins 5-3 on Friday for their season-high fourth consecutive victory.
''I think they're playing with a lot of confidence right now and they're continuing to pick each other up,'' Cubs manager Rick Renteria said. ''I think they're starting to feel and know they can do this. You don't want every game to be like this, but they're doing it right. We'll take it.''
The Cubs recovered after closer Hector Rondon blew a three-run lead in the ninth, earning their first four-game winning streak since last July 6-9. Rizzo also had a two-run double in the eighth and Jason Hammel pitched seven shutout innings.
Junior Lake hit a leadoff single against Kevin Slowey (1-1) before Rizzo connected for his 12th homer. It was Rizzo's second homer in two days and the Cubs' first game-ending shot since he connected against St. Louis on July 29, 2012.
''I hit it up in the air and the wind was blowing, so you never know,'' Rizzo said. ''I knew I got enough of it. I was just hoping it would stay fair.''
Carlos Villanueva (2-5) pitched two perfect innings for the win. Chris Coghlan and Nate Schierholtz each had two hits.
Garrett Jones had three hits for Miami, which had won four in a row. Nathan Eovaldi gave up three runs and six hits in 7 2-3 innings in his first career appearance against the Cubs.
''I felt like I threw the ball well,'' Eovaldi said. ''Was able to use both sides of the plate, slider was good, and I was able to throw my curveball a lot today for strikes.''
The Marlins had just two hits in extra innings. Their last nine hitters went down in order.
''Other than the ninth inning, you know, mounting the rally, which was good to see, we put together some nice at-bats and gave ourselves a chance to play some extras,'' manager Mike Redmond said. ''But then really in the extra innings, we didn't get anything going at all.''
Hammel allowed six hits, struck out eight and walked one, extending his scoreless streak to 14 innings over his last two outings. The right-hander, who could be an attractive trade target for a contender at next month's deadline, is 2-1 with a 1.42 ERA over his last four starts.
''I did my best to stay in my counts so I could be advantageous throwing the heater,'' he said. ''I was kind of pitching backwards today. Slider early and fastball late.''
Hammel was in line for his seventh victory, which would have matched his total from last season, before the Marlins rallied in the ninth. Justin Bour had a run-scoring grounder before Reed Johnson, another pinch hitter, sliced a tying, two-run single into right-center against one of his former teams.
Bour was initially ruled safe on his grounder to first, but the call was overturned when a replay review showed Rondon got his foot on the bag in time. There was another overturned call in the 10th inning when Schierholtz's diving try for Casey McGehee's sinking liner to right was initially ruled a successful catch.
Eovaldi retired his first 14 batters before Schierholtz reached on a two-out single in the fifth for his 500th career hit. Coghlan followed with a liner to right for his third RBI in 24 games this season, scoring Schierholtz all the way from first for a 1-0 lead.
While Eovaldi was shutting down the Cubs, Hammel had to work hard to keep the Marlins down. Miami got at least one hit in each of the first five innings, but Hammel was at his best when the Marlins had runners on base.
''I'm very confident in my stuff right now and having a good game plan,'' Hammel said.
NOTES: Cubs C John Baker returned to the lineup after taking a foul ball off his throat during Wednesday's 5-4 victory over the Mets. Renteria said Baker's vocal cords are ''inflamed'' and the catcher is taking medication. ''There's nothing there that we can actually do to hurt it any more or any less,'' Renteria said. ... Blackhawks forwards Patrick Sharp, Bryan Bickell and Michal Handzus and defenseman Sheldon Brookbank took batting practice and threw in the outfield before the game. ''The wind must be blowing in because I didn't get one out,'' Sharp said with a grin. ''I think Bicksy hit one off the wall.'' ... Cubs RHP Jeff Samardzija (1-5, 2.54 ERA) faces 37-year-old Marlins LHP Randy Wolf (1-1, 3.38) on Saturday.

Apex Mountain Ski Resort
Apex Alpine Resort [1] is a ski village in the Okanagan region of British Columbia. The closest city is Penticton
Get in
The only method into the village is by road. It is about a 35-45 minute drive from Penticton. Follow Green Mountain Road 20km from town and turn right at the Apex Guest Ranch. If travelling from Keremeos then turn left at the ranch. You can also take your chances on the Hedley Corkscrew Road which winds down the mountain to Hedley via a system of tight switchbacks perched on steep cliffs. This is not recommended in the winter without a very good 4x4 vehicle (Read: a Hummer).
Get around
Well, you will want to ski of course! You can ski from the upper village to the main part, where the hotels and restaurants are located. Otherwise, you will have to drive or snowmobile. Snowmobile rental is available.
There is also a Horse-drawn cart ride available, though this is not a practical method of transportation.
Apex has a brief season in the summer for mountain biking. Most on-hill facilities are shutdown during the summer, so you may have to make it a day trip from Penticton unless you know someone. Although there are some year-round residents at Apex, in the summer it generally resembles a ghost town.
You can also go fishing at nearby Nickel Plate Lake or travel a bit further and visit the Historic Mascot Mine. If you plan to fish make absolute sure you have a valid fishing license, as conservation officials are able to confiscate all your gear including boats or vehicles and hit you with a stiff fine.
There is not much to buy up at Apex other than food and your lift ticket.
The only place to buy cold beer, wine, and spirits is at the Trading Post. Selection is limited, so if you are a discriminating drinker you will want to bring your own booze from town.
As far as nightlife, you only have one choice: Make your way to the friendly and inviting Gunbarrel Saloon. Mix with the locals and learn some Apex lore or just enjoy yourself by the fire. Check out the DJ booth, which is a gutted snowcat perched high from the rafters. There are a lot of vintage Apex signs, photos, and knick-knacks decorating the walls and ceiling. Pool and fooseball table. Smoking room. Live music most weekends. Pints/highballs $4.50-$5.50

Stress Claims in Michigan: Worker's Compensation Entitlement for Mental Disability
The worker's compensation system was developed as a way for workers who suffer on-the-job physical injuries to be compensated fairly and quickly for medical expenses and loss of income. In recent years, however, it has expanded into a new area fraught with vagueness: mental stress. Though the focus of this report is on Michigan, which has been in the forefront among states in mental stress claims, its searching analysis of the inherent difficulty in evaluating these claims will be useful for anyone interested in this growing area of workplace abuse. 36 pages.

enti tled " progress and poverty created intense agitation in intellectual and landed circles in great britian and the ablest men in the kingdom were among those who thought it important that it should be replied to mr george is an extremist in some particulars rev dr mcglynn the catholic priest just now figuring so conspicuously in the public prints is an avowed disciple of mr george dr mcgrlynn says my doctrtine about land has been made clear in speeches in reported in terviews and in published articles and i repeat it here 1 have tuught and i shall continue to teach in speeches and writ ings as long us i live that land is right fully the property ol the people in com mon and that private oicnerxhip of land in against natural justice no matter by what civil or ecclesiastical laws and i would bring about instantly if i could such changes of laws all the world over as would vonjiscat e private property in land without one penny of compensation to the miscalled owners now how far that correctly repre sents mr george's policy as he would apply it to this country we do not know it goes farther than he advo cates in his book unless we ha for gotton his exact position and it has been some time since we read any part ! of his powerful work the platform of the trade and labor organizations j of new york city adopted last sep tember and prepared no doubt by mr george does not go as far as the above declarations of principle by bather mc i i rlynn goes this-land question is important it j is destined to become more important it is sun to be discussed more and more in years ahead and it may become the ! great question on this continent it is well for all to have some knowledge of . its theory ami remedy in the asheville adcance of the ivh ult there was a clear ami well i written paper of nearly two and a half i columns on " henry george and the land and labor club of that town j it is by mr locke craig and it exhib : its no little ability we refer to it i now because th star had something i to say of the club at asheville of \ which mr craig is the founder we believe mr cruig says the principle purpose and controlirtg policy of the movement of which henry j-eorge is the leader is to do away wtih he ' pre.ient xysletn of land ownership in his position on this subject ho by no means ; stand alone being supported with one or two exceptions by all the leading thinkers of this century such as goethe thomas i'arlyle and herbert spencer carlyle in his own striking way well expresses their views when he says properly speaking the 1 ind belongs to these two to almighty god and to all iih children of men that have ever work well on it or as henry george expresses it what god has created for the use of all should be utilized for the benefit of all land they do not recognize as prop erty that alone is property or subject to j private ownership which is the product of labor by land is meant land in its natural state unimproved by the appli cation of labor in so far as it has been improved by the application of labor in so far a.s it has been improved by human industry by building clearing drain ings etc in so far it is the subject of private ownership hut these are not im-hrded in the term und they are not land but the products of labor whatever value individual industry has added to land that of right belongs to the indi vidual this is sweeping enough the american people as yet are far away from all socialistic theories and this land question is the chief corner-stone of socialism as expounded by its ablest advocates the people in the south will not look with favor upon any movement that proposes to do away with the present system of land owner ship it is too radical too revolu tionary too destructive for the conserv ative opinions and traditions and prin ciples of the southern people but this theory of henry george is by no means a new theory he is fol lowing in the wake of many famous writers adam smith a name with out a rival in economic science held this that no man has a right to be the absolute owner of anything which has not been created by his or somebody's i else exertions he held that nothing is really property which has not been produced by human industry and therefore land can not be property the position of m de lavelye and the able sir henry maine of england is that the ownership of land is of com paratively recent origin that in all primitive societies the soil of the earth was held collectively by a whole tribe j or settlement as is the case to-day in the russian mir the german mark and the swiss allmend herbert spencer holds this for if one portion of the earth may justly become the possession of an indi vidual and may be held by him for his sole use and benefit as a thing to which he has an exclusive right then other por tions of the earth may be so held and eventually the whole of the earth's sur face may be so held and our planet may thus lapse altogether into private hands and if the land owners have a valid right to the surface of the globe then it follows that those who are not land-owners have a valid right to the surface of the globe than it follows that those who are not land owners have no right at all to its surface hence such can exist upon the earth by sufferance only they are all ! tresspassers save by permission of the lords of the soil they can have no room for the soles of their feet nay should the others think fit to deny them a rest ing place these landless men might equitably be expelled from the earth al together equity therefore does not permit property in land mr,.ispeneer is perhaps the most in fluential thinker and author among living englishmen we do not enter upon a discussion of the plan by which mr george proposes to operate our purpose now is to simply indicate the views of eminent writers who are in harmony with mr george iti the opin ion that no man has any right to own j : the land — that ir belongs to the race . or races who dwell upon it when eminent writers in europe and some men of marked ability in the united states hold the views indicated and when societies and clubs are organ ized to propagate opinion and create a body or voters who shall antagonize j land owners — the farmers and others who are proprietors of the soil — it is time tor intelligent men to be on the alert and to watch narrowly the trend of the age this land question is grow | ing serious in england tor a few men now own the whole country one englishman actually owns 80,000 acres i i of land in that comparatively small i country a few englishmen have al | most entire possession of the soil rich men of the united states are gobbling up the hundreds of thousands of acres and foreign corparations and individ uals are buying up land by the hun dred

there are other walk in life open to them ' a man who is not succeeding in one i thing cannot do worse by changing i am well aware that there are a great \ many honest and qualified doctors who are

lien law would be a very dangerous experi ment to the people give a doctor who is a rascal the certainty of getting his fee from the poor as well as the rich ; and the temptation to keep his patient ! in bed will be so great that he cannot resist it better let the laws remain as they are if a doctor has the elements of success in him he will sooner or later succeed any way if the medical pro fession is so sadly in need of a special lien law for their protection is it not ' reasonable to suppose that the various other classes of citizens equally en titled to the sympathy of our law-mak ers who are now birred by existing ; laws must have some redress also our legislators in their arduous ef forts to protect certain classes of peo ple have already cumbered our statute books with too much of this class leg islation laws that superinduce dis honesty and work injury to the masses ' let equal and exact justice be meted out and either let the laws stand as thev are or instead of tapping them for the special benefit of one or more classes repeal them altogether h 0 hyatt m d is it chance or design all creatures eat ami drink they il 1 find it pleasant work and it was pleasant to speak about pleasant things they are so made as to like it and they are made to like the food that is best for them and to like nothing else they are able to eat what is good for them and are not able to eat what would be bad in every instance it is so thus the mouth of every creature reveals nearly everything about the creature it tells whether the creature be animal fish insect or bird whether it eats vegetables or flesh ; whether it chews its food before swallowing it or chews the cud or does not chew it all some birds find suitable food in worms and small fish which creep about in water on the banks of shallow lak<\s and rivers but how are they to ob tain their food when it is under watery they have long legs like stilts to wade in water and they have long nocks and long bills so as to reach anything at they bottom long tails would be useless and inconvenient to them for the tails would dabble in the water and be a trouble and a burden in seeking food so their tails are short while their logs necks and bills are long all just as they ought to be does all this look like chance work those wading long legged birds find their food in clear water through which the bottom can be distinctly seen from the top but ducks find food in dirty water and mud so that they cannot discover it by sight how then do they find it they have to feel for it most birds have no more sense of fooling in their bills than we in our teeth but the duck has a very sensi tive skin fixed just at the end of its mouth which becomes soft in water and by which it can easily distinguish eatables from pebbles and mink if the duck were a long legged bird it cculd not walk so well on the mud in which it finds food its feet would sink and stick fast it is therefore made with short logs and webbed feet to swim and even when the water is too shal low to swim in the webbed feet sup port its body on the mud could anything be better than this do you think it all came to be so well and widely done by accident or does it not rather look as if some one had thought about it before ho made t'.jem and had contrived it all i may here add bv-the-way that the sensitive skin at the end of a duck's bill makes it weather wise there is a strong sense of feeling there owing to its being full of nerves in dry ait it becomes dry and stiff but when the air is very lamp it imbibes moisture from tht air which the duck feels to be pleasant and thereupon begins to quack noisily as boys in tin street shout when they are glad thus the loud and general quacking of ducks in dicate rain whenever we see working tools we know to what trade they belong and the kind of work they are intended to do each tool is designed to do a par ticular kind of work and no oilier saws cannot drive nails in wood nor can hammers cat through timber now it is just so with the mouths 01 living creatures they are working tools and each is exactly adapted to it work which is to oar the very food which its owner best likes and which is most useful to it for instance the horse has ho desire to o.it flesh nor the tiger a liking for grass the tiger's stomach could not di 41-st r.t.-s nor could that of a horse digest leh if chance had been the world's creator the tigher might have had grinding teeth the horses oxen i»nd sheep ti-ith to tear but it is not so the mouth and teeth of every living thing are perfectly suite i to the work which is best to be done for t\w well bt-i.i of each the same is noticeable in the strength of the jaw.s look for instance t the monkey and the squirrel the squir rel is an industrious little fellow in his way but the monkey is not so patient he would quickly eat what he has got and then be intent on some niiscni«f or oiuo prank both animals delight to eat nuts but the squirrel who cannot bond botharuis like the monkey holds the nut in his mouth with botji paws and likes to nible at tne shell until he gets to tho kernel wherea the monkey puts it into his mouth gives it a lusty crack and oats the kernel at once this is what each like-i to do and accordingly the monkey is provided with strong jaws but the jaw.s of the squirrel are light just as required the front tenth with which it gnaws are very sharp so also is the front teeth of a rat the beaver and the porcupine and of all animals that have to nibble to get at food and what is remarka ble the substance of which the poii t of the teeth are formed is so hard as to never wear awav n here it not so their constant gnawing would wealth teeth down even the edges of hard steel saws wear away in work and so would the nibbling animal's tooth wevo tho edges made of bone the samesul stance as the other part of the teeth but tho edge or point of each tooth is formed of solid enamel the thin glaze kind of material with which teeth are covered to protect them this enamel is so hard as scarcely ever to wear away by biting how well all this is done could chance have done it the largest teeth are those of tie hippopotamus or river horse as the j word means they are like a set of i tusks in its month it lives on reeds and coarse thick vegetable matter it i has just such teeth as are tit to tear and 1 to divide tough and hard plants it i eats enormously if it did not it could i not live for it.s food contains little ! nourishment and that it mav he able to eat enormously far more than • the elephant it has a stomach which | holds tive or six bushels of food and i the large canal of its bowels are two j feet round here again you see how i one thing exactly suits another and ! all these things agree with the places — i reedy islets — where the big beast has to live if an infidel tells you that chance arranged all this he must be ; wicked or elsj he must 1-e mad the rhinoceros like the hippopota mus :\ huge beast it is supposed to ! he the unicorn of which lob speaks ; because it has one horn it feeds on branches of trees but verv often it can not reach the branches and in no case j can it climb how then is it to obtain • food it has a horn with which to rip i and tear up the trees that the branches ;, may be brought down a hollow horn ! like that of the ox would not be strong , enough for the work so its horn is ; solid horn if made of lone for it might : break in breaking and tearing np great ' trees so it is fibrous and will lend ! rather than break and the skin out of | which it grows is of like hardness that i it may yield to pressnre were the horn fixed over the brain that delicate and vital organ might be injured when i | the animal punches a tree so it is fix ! ed over the nose and having a thick strong short neck the beast uses his horn with sufficient force to tear j up trees and split them to pieces noth ! ing would do if it were different to ! what it is but nothing could possibly j ! be made a.s it is by chance the surgical operation of trepanning [ or trephining the skull a few years ago discovered to have been common with prehistoric man has since been found to have continued in quite extensive practice from the most remote period to our own times a french anthro pologist m vedrenes mentions that native families of montenegro and of j algiers

text: I have 2 ISPconfig servers that are setup for redundancy behind my firewall. I've setup my public IPs on the firewall and then specify internal IP's on each server. Public - NAT 184.108.40.206 - 192.168.10.100 - Server 1 220.127.116.11 - 192.168.10.200 - Server 2 It works great, however when I add an SSL site, it breaks the system. For instance, I will create a new ssl site on the master. I then assign an internal IP on the master server then setup a public IP to NAT to it. 188.8.131.52 - 192.168.10.101 - Server 1 This works fine but then breaks apache on Server 2. The apache entry is created for 192.168.10.101, which isnt on that server. If I can create 192.168.10.201 on server 2, and edit the apache site, will the site get overwritten? The SSL certificate is a wildcard and it used on both servers, so that shouldn't be a problem. I will then create a failover group on my firewall to determine which server the user will get sent to. I just want to make sure that the vhost directive isn't going to get overwritten when I adjust anything on the master. I suppose it's fine, if I edit that particular site, I will just know I need to do manual editing on server 2. If I create a new site entirely, I don't want to have to edit every other site on server 2. Thanks!

EPA to Extend Public Comment Period On Air Permit for Arecibo Waste to Energy Facility; Agency Will Hold Five Public Hearing Sessions August 25, 26 and 27
Release Date: 08/22/2012
Contact Information: Brenda Reyes (787) 977-5869; email@example.com; Mary Mears (212) 637-3673
The EPA will hold five formal public hearing sessions spread over three days on August 25, 26 and 27, 2012. The sessions will run on Saturday August 25 and Sunday August 26 from 1:00pm to 4:00pm and 6:00pm to 10:00pm. On Monday, August 27, a session will be held from 1:00pm to 4:00pm. The hearing sessions will all be held at the Arecibo Lions Club located at Avenida Ing. Manuel T. Gillan, Sector El Tanque, Arecibo.
The EPA will accept written comments or written presentations at the hearing and will allow each person wishing to give oral testimony for up to 10 minutes. Oral testimony and written comments submitted during the public hearing or anytime during the public comment period will be given equal consideration.
For the first four sessions on August 25 and 26, people who registered ahead of time will be given preference in filling slots to testify in each session. People who register at the door will be accommodated in that session only if there are slots left in that session. If that session is full, the EPA will give that person a choice of sessions and still have open slots. The final session on August 27 will be preserved to accommodate those who signed up to, but were not able to, testify at previous sessions.
The EPA is proposing an air permit for the facility after evaluating the potential impact of the facility on air quality by comparing it to EPA air quality standards which are established to protect public health.
To obtain the EPA permit, Energy Answers was required to demonstrate that the pollution controls on the plant represented the best available pollution control technology. The proposed permit also requires Energy Answers to test the pollution it emits to the atmosphere and demonstrate that it meets the pollution limits the EPA is proposing to establish. The permit requires emissions limits to be measured and reported to the EPA during operation. Failure to meet any of these permit limits would subject the facility to EPA enforcement actions.
The EPA is extending the public comment period. Written comments may be submitted at any time during the comment period, which will now be open until August 31, 2012. EPA's final permit decision will be made only after full consideration of all public comments received.
Members of the public wishing to review the administrative record for the proposed decision, which includes all documents relevant to the EPA's proposed permit, can make an appointment Monday – Friday between 9:00am and 4:30 pm in the EPA's Caribbean Environmental Protection Division at City View Plaza III-Suite 7000 in Guaynabo. To make an appointment, contact John Aponte by email at email@example.com or phone at 787-977-5853. The documents are also available online through the Interamerican University-Arecibo Campus website at http://www.arecibo.inter.edu/reserva/epa/epa.htm#. In addition, the administrative record is also available for viewing in EPA's New York offices at 290 Broadway in New York City.

BOCA RATON, Fla. (May 11, 2006) - With just five hits scattered throughout the entire game, the ETSU softball team fell to Florida Atlantic in a 1-0 pitcher's dual in the first round of the Atlantic Sun Tournament, Thursday at FAU Softball Stadium. FAU improves to 30-22 on the season, while the Lady Bucs fall to 20-35.
Freshman Mary Catherine Vercoe (
The Owls got the only score of the game in the second inning, as FAU catcher Charlotte Baird doubled to left center to knock home Kala Guy, who had drawn a walk, to take the 1-0 lead with two innings complete.
FAU's Kathryn Stauffer was stellar in the circle, giving up just two hits in 5 1/3 innings of work to move to 10-13. Meghan Doonan was clutch in relief, shutting down the four batters she faced to pick up the save, her second of the season.
Clutch fielding by the Owls stopped any scoring opportunity the Lady Bucs had, as FAU turned double plays to end both the first and sixth innings.
Senior Janine Sprague (Hillsborough, N.C.) and junior Stephanie Gaynord were the only Lady Bucs to manage base hits on the game. Gaynord, a two-time A-Sun Player of the Week, has now hit safely in eight consecutive contests.
The Lady Bucs are still alive in the double-elimination tournament, and are scheduled to meet six-seed Gardner-Webb at 4 p.m. Gardner-Webb suffered a 2-0 loss to Stetson in the A-Sun first round. The Lady Bucs and the Runnin' Bulldogs split their regular season series, on April 29, in

I live in Bakersfield and as far as Paranormal Investigators (that aren't completely hokey) I have not been able to find any either. But I continue searching. If you find any good ones, please let me now. But it's good to know that I'm not just alone in Bakersfield as far as being a girl wanting a legit paranormal investigation.
