Question: I'm interested in adding starter fertilizer equipment to my clients' planters but unsure what type of placement is best. Is it better to use a coulter mounted application, in-furrow application, or a trail behind application? I'm concerned about bringing up moist soil in my clients' no-till fields that could disturb the planting depth. I'm also concerned that the application method could change down pressure requirements in highly variable no-till soil conditions, leading to inconsistent planting depth. Do you have a review that answers my questions?

Rose opens five exhibits, debuts digital collection
Museum explores dimensions of time and space this spring
The Rose Art Museum is exploring dimensions of time and space this spring.
From Erector-set bridges to video humor to a digital catalog of its collection, the Rose is offering its visitors the opportunity to travel through the museum's past and present — both in person and online.
The newly launched Digital Collection website highlights a selection from the Rose's permanent collection of 8,000 pieces of modern and contemporary art. The museum intends to feature a greater number of works online over time, making the collection more accessible to larger number of people and facilitating remote research of the collection.
The museum also has opened five new exhibits: "Chris Burden: The Master Builder," "Mika Rottenberg: Bowls Balls Souls Holes," Rose Projects 01A "The Matter That Surrounds Us: Wols and Charline Von Heyl," Rose Video 02 "Josephine Meckseper: Mall of America," and "Collection in Focus: The Threshold of Recognition."
"The Master Builder"
"The Master Builder" will display Burden's small-scale Erector set bridges, modeled from bridges imagined and actual. The sculptures showcase the versatility, simplicity and strength of their unassuming parts, combining technical sophistication and childlike imagination with subtle social commentary.
"In his pioneering performances of the early 1970s, Boston native and internationally acclaimed artist Chris Burden gained a reputation for testing—and forever pushing—the limits: of his own body, and of the institutions and publics implicated in his investigations," says Christopher Bedford, Henry and Lois Foster Director of the Rose and curator of the exhibition. "First leveled through psychological and physical trial, his work has continued to pose questions of both its material and audience. Burden's Erector sculptures extend the artist's work as a social engineer, demonstrating his dual commitment to empiric and symbolic inquiry."
Burden's bridges are constructed from thousands of vintage and reproduced Meccano and Erector parts, popular 20th-century children's building toys. The earliest bridge in the Rose's exhibition, "1/4 Ton Bridge (1997)," is also the first that Burden built, prompted by the artist's desire to see if he could engineer a structure that might support his own weight. While the resulting sculpture is able to support 500 pounds—a quarter ton—it is slight enough that it can be lifted from below with a single finger.
This April, Burden will construct a two-story Erector set skyscraper that will rise through the museum's atrium. The exhibit will also include the showing of a video of the making of Burden's monumental 2008 sculpture "What My Dad Gave Me" – a 65-foot-tall Erector set skyscraper installed in front of Rockefeller Center in New York City.
In addition to his spring exhibition, the Rose has commissioned Burden to create a permanent, outdoor sculpture, entitled "Light of Reason." In Burden's design, antique Victorian lampposts and concrete benches form three branches that fan out from the museum's entrance, creating an inviting gateway to the museum and a dynamic outdoor space for the Brandeis community. Inspired by the three torches, three hills, and three Hebrew letters in the Brandeis seal, the work borrows its title from a well-known quote by the university's namesake, Supreme Court Justice Louis Dembitz Brandeis: "If we would guide by the light of reason, we must let our minds be bold." It will be completed in 2014.
"Bowls Balls Souls Holes"
Rottenberg is the recipient of this year's Ruth Ann and Nathan Perlmutter Award. An exhibition that provides a comprehensive account of the video installation artist's conceptual interests and material sensibilities, "Bowls Balls Souls Holes" is a new work she created specifically for The Rose, which features her humorous, surreal and politically incisive work "Squeeze."
"Mika's installation, which will occupy the Lois Foster Gallery, will be a major statement for her and for the Rose," says Bedford. "Her work is simultaneously sophisticated and very, very accessible – and the way she integrates the moving image within the sculptural environment is incredible. Her exhibition will effect a radical transformation of the space through her own sculptural materials, through architecture, through sound, and through the moving image."
The Buenos Aires native's immersive video installations envision the female body as a microcosm of larger societal issues of gender, class, globalization and labor. In her provocative short films, a cast of glamorous and oddly erotic workers, chosen for their unique features and talents, engage in outrageous narratives in factory-like settings while exploring means of manufacture and production.
"The Matter That Surrounds Us"
"The Matter That Surrounds Us" pairs the mid-century German artist Wols, whose delicate, often mysterious small works combine media in unorthodox ways, with new paintings and collage by the contemporary artist von Heyl. Inaugurating the multi-year Rose Projects organized by Curator-at-Large Katy Siegel, this exhibition series will focus on artists who refuse the categorical divides between representation and materialist abstraction, image and object, looking for different models of reality.
"Mall of America"
Through her installations, photographs, and films, Meckseper exposes the political implications and ramifications of American consumer culture. In this work, Meckseper explores Minnesota's Mall of America—one of the top tourist destinations in the United States—in relation to an aviation store/army recruiting station and military expansion.
The Threshold of Recognition
This gallery series is dedicated each semester to highlighting and drawing new connections to important, and often understudied objects in the Rose's permanent collection that would otherwise remain in storage. Members of Brandeis faculty are invited to work with Rose staff to curate this space. The current exhibit, organized in collaboration with Brandeis Fine Arts Professor Nancy Scott, provides context and counterpoint between a recent Post-Cubist work, German artist Thomas Scheibitz's "Nebenwert," and iconic paintings of Fernand Leger's La Femme Bleue" (1929) and Juan Gris' Le Siphon (1913)
The exhibits are on display through May 8.

When stock markets are humming along nicely, customers are less likely to complain about their brokers and financial advisers: 2013 was on pace to be the fourth year in a row of sharp declines in the number of arbitration cases filed with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (Finra), the brokerage industry's self-regulatory body. But as Matthias Rieker reports this week in The Wall Street Journal, complaints about one kind of investment remain stubbornly high. The outlier: Variable annuities.
Variable annuities usually offer a retirement saver a guaranteed future payout, along with a chance of increasing the value of the saver's initial investment depending on how markets perform; investments in many of these annuities can be tax-deferred. But they've long exasperated consumer advocates because of their relatively high commissions and fees, along with their often-impenetrable rules about what, exactly, an investor's account is worth at any given time.
As Rieker reports, "In 2012, the variable annuity was the only class of security for which arbitration claims increased"; last year, the total number of annuity complaints dropped about 20%, but complaints in other asset categories dropped far faster. Many of the complaints involve situations where variable annuities were sold to already-retired people who learned, only after buying them, that they couldn't withdraw money from the investments without paying hefty "surrender charges."
In most of the cases Rieker describes, the investor's beef isn't necessarily with the companies that provide and manage the annuities (insurers, in most cases), but with the brokers or financial advisers who sell them. Often, his sources say, the broker doesn't understand the product any better than the customer does (though the broker probably understands just fine the value of the sales commission, which can be as much as 10% of the amount invested).
An annuities trade group executive tells Rieker that "nine in 10 annuity owners are at least somewhat satisfied with their annuity-based investments." It's also worth noting that complaints to Finra involving stocks and mutual funds still significantly outnumber those involving annuities; in 2013 through November, for example, there were 165 complaints about variable annuities, 289 about mutual funds and 511 about stocks.

Thin is In
If last year was the year of the mini-notebooks, then this year (well, so far) seems to be the year of the cheap ultralight and ultrathin notebooks. While you may expect to find that some of these ultraportables are basically reusing the same hardware (the Intel Atom processor and chipset) found on the mini-notebooks, there are of course notebooks that don't actually venture down this same route. Some may use a slightly more expensive Intel Core 2 Duo/Solo ULV processor, or some may end up doing what HP has just done with the HP Pavilion dv2 - use AMD's Neo processors instead.
Now, HP has never shied from using AMD on their consumer and business grade mobile notebooks, so you'll find that the HP Pavilion dv2 is no exception. In fact, it's the only notebook currently around to be using the recently launched AMD Yukon platform (which uses the Athlon Neo processors), so there are a lot of expectations. While obviously, it's no AMD Bobcat yet, as a stopgap measure however, the Yukon platform is expected to perform much better than the Intel Atom which we intend to find out in this review of the dv2.
Before we go straight into the more performance orientated pages however, let's take a step back with some pretty pictures and the specifications:-

BlackRock, the world's biggest provider of exchange-traded funds, is losing market share in the ETF business to Vanguard Group Inc., the company best known for its low-cost index funds. BlackRock's U.S. market share declined by 1.4 percent this year to about 41 percent as of June 30, according to a report by State Street Global Advisors. Vanguard, the third largest ETF manager after No. 2 State Street Corp., had a market share increase of 1.7 percent to 18 percent.
"We are not happy with our market share in the second quarter in U.S. equity ETFs," Fink said in a telephone interview today. "You saw risk off, even in ETFs, you had many flows into what I would call the commoditized ETFs, the large, index products, and Vanguard has taken a lot of the share of those flows in those products."
BlackRock has failed to benefit from almost $750 billion in industrywide deposits into actively managed bond funds since 2009 as investors put money with top-performing rivals such as Bill Gross's Pacific Investment Management Co. and more recently with Jeffrey Gundlach's DoubleLine Capital LP. On the ETF side, Vanguard had attracted almost twice as much in investor deposits as BlackRock this year as of June 30, according to data from State Street.
The firm didn't benefit like some of its competitors from deposits into active bond funds following weak performance in 2008, Fink said during a conference call with analysts and investors in January 2011. Investors have pulled about $20 billion from active bond funds since 2011, according to quarterly earnings reports.
Fink said today in a conference call with analysts that BlackRock's performance at fixed-income funds has rebounded and that the firm has hired managers to help expand into global bonds. He also said the firm has a plan to address iShares' strategy in coming months, without elaborating. BlackRock's active taxable fixed-income products are beating 71 percent of peers over the past year and 81 percent over the past three years, Fink said.
BlackRock acquired iShares when it bought Barclays Global Investors in December 2009. In the three months ended June 30, investors withdrew about $5.5 billion from BlackRock's iShares stock ETFs and deposited $11.7 billion into its iShares bond ETFs. That's the lowest combined level of deposits since the fourth quarter of 2010, when the company started reporting the numbers separately for iShares.
BlackRock said today that second-quarter profit fell 11 percent as slumping markets worldwide eroded fees for overseeing client assets. Net income decreased to $554 million, or $3.08 a share, from $619 million, or $3.21, a year earlier. BlackRock's net income compared with the $3 a share average estimate of seven analysts surveyed by Bloomberg.
Fink, who has built the firm through purchases of rivals, is seeking to expand by attracting investor deposits as the firm's acquisition spree comes to an end. That's gotten harder as Europe's sovereign-debt crisis and slowing economic growth worldwide have prompted investors to pull money out of actively managed equity funds. BlackRock's assets fell 3 percent to $3.56 trillion, as market losses totaled $76.2 billion and client redemptions were $29.4 billion during the quarter.
"Active equity will continue to be a challenge for them and others," Robert Lee, an analyst with Keefe, Bruyette & Woods Inc. in New York, said in an interview before the earnings were announced. ETFs "will be a growing source of assets," said Lee, who rates BlackRock shares outperform.
BlackRock shares are down 1.8 percent for this year, compared with the 9.4 percent gain in the 20-member S&P index of asset managers and custody banks.
Clients pulled a combined $6.5 billion from BlackRock's active stock and bond funds in the quarter. Excluding the impact of the planned disposition of advisory portfolios, which reduced assets by $31.6 billion, the firm said long-term net deposits were $3.7 billion.
BlackRock's investment advisory fees fell 5.2 percent to $2 billion compared with a year earlier. Performance fees, earned by funds for beating certain benchmarks, decreased 18 percent to $41 million. BlackRock's revenue fell 5 percent from a year earlier to $2.2 billion.
Revenue for BlackRock Solutions, the unit that advises financial institutions and governments on hard-to-value assets, increased 13 percent from a year earlier as the unit added new assignments and clients who use the Aladdin investment- management system increased assets.
BlackRock, which was selected by the U.S. in 2008 to oversee tainted holdings at the peak of the financial crisis, disposed of advisory assets for investors, mainly related to liquidations of former portfolios held by Bear Stearns Cos. and American International Group Inc., known as Maiden Lane I and Maiden Lane III, the firm said.
"On the one hand BlackRock's strategic positioning is strong," Citigroup Inc.'s William Katz, who's based in New York, wrote in a July 9 note to clients. "On the other hand, flow prospects are mixed and investors continue to question margins and business continuity given seemingly elevated employee turnover."
Fink said on the conference call today that BlackRock has a "robust" bench of executives and that the firm is committed to change as it tries to improve its business.
Susan L. Wagner, who led BlackRock's growth by overseeing purchases including the fund units of Merrill Lynch & Co. and Barclays Plc, retired last month, signaling that BlackRock will rely on internal growth for future expansion. Wagner will join BlackRock's board of directors in October and will continue to serve as a director of DSP BlackRock Investment Managers, the firm's joint venture in India.
Wagner's departure was announced the same month that Robert Doll, former chief equity strategist, said he was leaving and Daniel Rice, who helped manage five energy and natural resource mutual funds, stepped down to avoid the appearance of a conflict of interest. Philipp Hildebrand, the former head of the Swiss central bank, will join BlackRock in October to help expand relationships with institutional clients overseas, the firm said in June.

DeCock: For college athletes, guns trump other issues
Not to be deliberately obtuse, but while rental cars and parking tickets have added a whiff of conspiracy to P.J. Hairston's troubles, isn't the bigger issue that a gun was found outside the car the North Carolina basketball star was driving when he was arrested?
Even though the Durham Police Department has announced no gun charges are forthcoming against Hairston, this aspect of the situation bears further examination.
If Hairston was given the use of rental cars in violation of NCAA rules, or took advantage of other impermissible benefits, he'll have to miss games and pay restitution – just as C.J. Leslie did after borrowing an N.C. State booster's car not too long ago.
If North Carolina failed to observe connections between its basketball players and Haydn "Fats" Thomas, the loquacious and mysterious party promoter at the center of the scandal; if this goes beyond Hairston and deeper into the basketball program; if there's an agent involved behind the scenes, as there was with the football program, then it would be yet another stain on the reputation of a university that could once take pride in its athletics program and the balance struck between athletics and academics.
We're not there yet, although the web spun so far has been fascinating.
Still, these developments are venal at worst and for the most part easily sanctioned and corrected. No one's being hurt here. The NCAA has procedures for handling this kind of thing, if it can be roused to action after turning a blind eye to the way the Department of African and Afro-American Studies was systematically used to keep UNC athletes eligible.
That scandal has left a few reputations slightly bruised, but no lives at risk. The football scandal, embarrassing as it was, cost a few people their jobs and cost a few uninvolved athletes a chance to play in a bowl game, but it was no more dangerous than failing to pay a parking ticket.
The pot found inside and outside the car Hairston and his friends were using was illegal and inappropriate for Hairston's status as a scholarship athlete and NBA prospect, but marijuana possession and driving without a license do not constitute the crime of the century.
Drive around with a 9 mm handgun and nine rounds of ammunition, though, and you're asking for real trouble. That was also found outside Hairston's car, and while the police said Wednesday that they don't anticipate any additional charges against Hairston, there's still no explanation for the gun. That's the really worrying thing about this entire episode.
NCAA violations very rarely put lives at risk. Guns kill.
There have been 14 homicides in Durham in 2013 already. It's an unchecked epidemic of violence, too much of it taking place in the same neighborhood where Hairston and his friends were arrested.
They may not have been looking for trouble, but sometimes it finds you. And when it does, carrying a gun makes it a gunfight, putting not only the armed but the unarmed in danger.
Everyone wants to know, what was P.J. Hairston doing driving that rental car? The real question is, why on earth was there a gun anywhere near it?
Just because he hasn't been charged with a crime doesn't mean Hairston doesn't have to answer.
Mess around with someone else's rental car, and you might miss a game. Mess around with a gun, and you might miss the rest of your life.

SACRAMENTO (Reuters) - California Governor Jerry Brown said on Friday he would sign a bill authorizing the state to provide driver's licenses to illegal immigrants, a last-minute reversal of his position.
Brown said he approved of the measure, which its author had withdrawn on Thursday under the threat of a veto, capping a full day of lobbying by California politicians for immigration reform at the federal level.
"This bill will enable millions of people to get to work safely and legally," Brown, a Democrat, said in an email sent to reporters shortly after midnight. "Hopefully it will send a message to Washington that immigration reform is long past due."
Over the past year, nine states and the District of Columbia have passed laws enabling undocumented immigrants to drive legally. In California, lawmakers and governors have routinely rebuffed such efforts.
Just on Thursday, Assemblyman Luis Alejo, a Democrat from the agricultural town of Salinas, told Reuters that he was withdrawing the bill he had written until next year, largely because of concerns expressed by Brown.
The governor, Alejo said, wanted to make sure the new licenses complied with federal law requiring them to clearly indicate the driver was undocumented.
For example, he said, Utah licenses for people who cannot show they are in the country legally bear the words "temporary visitor's driver license" on the front.
Alejo said he would prefer California's licenses to be more discreet, with small wording on the back indicating that the license was not to be used for identification purposes.
He withdrew the bill, promising to bring it up again next year. But late in the day on Thursday, just hours before the legislature recessed for the year, Alejo accepted amendments that would make the distinction more clear.
After Brown's objections were satisfied, both houses of the state legislature quickly passed the bill, with a number of Republicans joining the Democratic majority to vote for it.
It was approved by votes of 28-8 in the California Senate and 55-19 in the Assembly.
"We need those living here and sharing our roads to be educated and insured," said Republican state Senator Anthony Cannella. "There are both social and financial reasons to provide licenses to immigrants who are part of our communities."
Latino organizations and immigrant rights groups welcomed the measure.
Angelica Salas, executive director of the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles, called it "fundamental and way overdue."
Also on Thursday, Cannella led a group calling on Republicans in the U.S. Congress to take action on broader immigration reform.

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, あけましておめでとう、etc.
I hope everyone had a good holiday season, and that if you lost power (like I did), it wasn't out for too long.
I have a few posts percolating (including a review of the hilarious Wreck-It Ralph), but I've been "busy" (those video games I got for Christmas and during last semester aren't going to play themselves (if you import gamers were curious, Tales of Xillia 2 is pretty good), nor are the case surveys I'm doing for the law review going to write themselves!).
Also, I have finally read Cold Days. Jim Butcher is my master now. Ghost Story, while good, was a bit sedate for the series, and Cold Days returns to the nonstop action and wham lines. Hopefully Butcher will be back to his ~1 year per book schedule, instead of the almost 1.5 year per book he's taken for the last two.
Next on the pile is Iain M. Banks's Consider Phlebas, the first in his SF series on The Culture.
I may have to start sleeping even less.

The Japanese soigneur knew a family who have a house right next to the course, meaning we could stay warm indoors right up until race start. This was particularly handy given the temperature was -3 and snow had been falling all night.
|Signing autographs for Lance
Compared to the slog through the mud of last year, the snow hardened up most of the ground to make for relatively fast racing, with just a few slippery corners and patches of thick mud. The snow on the ground and the sun in the sky made for picturesque racing.
The course is pretty flat, with the main features being a few roll overs, and probably the nicest set of stairs I've climbed in a cross race. The structure flexes when you step on it, giving back a bit of momentum to propel you up the next step. I doubt this was done on purpose, but it made climbing them a whole lot easier.
I was off to my usual slow start, but managed to pick off a few positions to settle into 30th place. The cold air seems to trigger my asthma over here, but thankfully there weren't any troubles during the race. I was lapped by Klaas Vantornout with 2 laps to go, however I was told the commissaires made a mistake and ended up giving us an extra lap, meaning I should have been only 1 lap down. I'm pretty happy with the result and it was a fun day out on the bike.
We were able to shower and clean back at Ranjit's friends house, where they had brought a bunch of friends over and continued drinking after the race, which was entertaining, as most of them were fairly frothed and very keen to have photos with both Ayako and myself.
Champion Systems
Champion Systems have provided me with a full wardrobe full of custom cycling gear to race, train and warm up in. It's pretty damn cool when I think about it, I've got my very own unique cycling kit, with all my personal sponsors on it!
I've got a standard skinsuit, fleece lined skinsuit (a godsend over here), neoprene water and wind resistant jacket, thermoshield jacket, and plenty of jerseys and knicks. They've even whipped up some custom zip off leg warmers, which everyone uses over here, you keep them on until a minute to go before the start. I'm exceptionally grateful for their support, I look a whole lot more professional than last year when I was racing in either a jersey and knicks (no go for CX) or a track skinsuit, which left me freezing cold!
|New gear, with two Belgian "jongens" who joined me for a training ride. Easy to see why Belgium is so good at cyclocross! These two absolutely fly!

Women for Women UK Major Gifts Officer Nora Russell traveled to Kosovo in June. She has written about her experiences and the women she met. This part 4 of 4 in her series.
Day 4 – Thursday 24th
Our final day, and it feels like we have been here so much longer – everyone has been so accommodating and welcoming and the group are tired but also so happy to have met the women they sponsor. Our last trip before dashing to the airport is to visit a vocational skills class which is a mixed group of women from many different communities Albanian, Ashkali and Egyptian. I meet Igballe Behluli who recites a poem she has written about her schooling and leaves us with these words;
'The End of Primary School'
At the end of primary school I received a message,
They are stopping me from going to school.
I was very sad, I started to cry.
The books and school bench was awash with my tears.
Walking down the road I tore up my notebooks in frustration.
I didn't deserve this.
But truthfully, my father did not do this on purpose.
It was the war and there was poison in every school.
Now I am happy, my dream is fulfilled.
My children go free to school.

Weekly Wire: The Global Forum
These are some of the views and reports relevant to our readers that caught our attention this week.
How women will dominate the workplace BRIC by BRIC
CNN Opinion
Despite recent wobbles in the BRICS economies, most economists agree that the majority of world economic growth in the coming years will come from emerging markets. The story of their rise to date has been one in which women have played a large and often unreported role. I believe that as the story unfolds, women's influence will rise further and emerging markets' path to gender equality may follow a very different route to that of most developed countries. READ MORE
James Harding: Journalism Today
BBC Media Center
To so many journalists, Stead has been the inspiration, the pioneer of the modern Press. His zeal and idealism, his restless fury at inequality and injustice; his belief that dogged, daring investigations could capture the public's imagination and prompt society to change for the better; his muscular opinions, his accessible design and his campaigning newspapers – and, no doubt too, a dab of ego, showmanship, and human folly – has made him the journalist's editor. I remember standing in the newsroom of The Times in late 2010 when the then Home Editor told me of a story that Andrew Norfolk, our correspondent based in Leeds, was working on. It was about child sex grooming: the cultivation of young, teenage girls by gangs of men who plied them with drink and drugs and passed them around middle-aged men to be used for sex. And I remember thinking: 'This can't be true, this feels Dickensian, like a story from another age.' READ MORE

Adding Bangs
If you want to make a change to your hair style, but aren't quite ready for drastic measures such as color changes, perms or going from long to short, then adding bangs may be the best thing for you.
Just about anyone can wear some type of bang. There are side-swept bangs, eyebrow length bangs, choppy bangs, the not really bangs, straight bangs and wispy bangs.
Each bang has a different purpose. For example, the side-swept bangs is a great way to add a few bangs in the forehead area without committing to the full bang. If you committ to a full bang you will be looking at several months to grow them out in the event that you do not like them. The bangs can camouflage a high forehead and make your face appear to be more oval.
In short, adding bangs to your hair style is a great way to change things up a little bit. For more great examples of different types of bangs, visit http://bangs.hairresources.net

Tell us a little about your life.
I live in South Los Angeles with my husband. We were married in September '05.
I work at the Center for Health Justice in West Hollywood as the women's health educator. [The Center for Health Justice works to empower people affected by HIV and incarceration. It offers prevention, treatment and advocacy services.]
I also used to work as a treatment adherence coordinator at [the AIDS service organization] Women Alive, doing intake, outreach and the outpatient clinic. Women Alive writes fact sheets on different HIV topics, new medications, and medical updates, and they do support groups.
I'm also an AIDS activist. As HIV-positive women, I believe we need to have our voices heard. We have to advocate for our own health needs in order to ensure that we get the best medical care and have equal access to the newest and best medications. I'm a member of ATAC (AIDS Treatment Activists Coalition), a national coalition of people living with HIV/AIDS and their advocates, working to improve research and treatment access.
I also do public speaking -- I work with the African-American Community Development Initiative -- it goes into black churches and trains ministers and pastors about HIV and AIDS.
Where did you grow up?
South L.A.
What did you want to be when you were a kid?
When I was a little girl I always wanted to be a nurse because my mother was in the medical field. She wasn't a nurse, but she was a unit secretary, so she knew a lot about the medical field.
What kinds of work have you done?
At the time of my diagnosis I was in school working on my degree -- I'm a social worker -- and I was working part-time. Then I dropped out of school. Now I'm going back to school to become a nurse. My goal is to work with people who have HIV.
Tell me about your partner.
I'm a newlywed. I met my husband a couple of years ago. It was quick. But he had known me for two years from being in the community. He came through the door of Women Alive seeking services. He was thinking about joining the heterosexual support group at Women Alive for HIV-positive men and women. We talked over the phone first and it was an immediate connection. I had visualized that he was probably going to be tall and dark but then when I saw him he was a shorty like me. I said, "He's a client, so I'm not even going to worry about it." So we did the intake, and we knew some of the same people. We ended up exchanging numbers, and that's how we ended up talking. He's very outgoing, very nice and compassionate, and loving.
What do you like to do in your spare time?
I like to read fiction and sometimes nonfiction. Right now, I'm reading the Holy Bible. I'm starting from the New Testament.
Are you a religious or spiritual person? Do you attend a church?
No, I'm not religious. That's a manmade thing to keep control. But I am a very spiritual person. If I didn't have any spiritual belief or connection, I'd probably be dead.
How did you find out you were HIV positive?
My ex-boyfriend wrote me from the penitentiary. He told me he had tested positive for the virus and that I should go get tested.
How have your feelings about having HIV changed over time?
Wow. A lot of emotions. At first, I was angry. I was upset. I was ashamed. I was even more upset with myself, because I kind of had a feeling that there was something wrong with him, but I couldn't quite pinpoint what it was. He had donated blood, and they had written him a letter telling him to come back in because there was something wrong. And I had a feeling that he might have been HIV positive.
And I was shocked. Even though I was emotionally prepared by disclosing the information that he told me to my mom. She was my support. But when you actually see the results that it's positive, it's like, "Oh my God, that's true."
I've forgiven him. I did write him what was going on and we attempted, when he was released from prison, to get back together. He said that he was going to continue to have unprotected sex. And I was like, "Oh, you have lost your mind -- I'm done with you."
How long do you think it takes to process a diagnosis?
To be honest with you, it took me a couple of years to process my diagnosis. I was depressed, but I was still functioning. I wasn't stuck in bed -- I had to go to work. That was my coping field pretty much. Until I went out on stress relief, stress leave, in the year 2000. And that was the first time I was able to walk into a support group. The first support group that I went to was Women Alive.
What advice would you give someone who has just found out they are positive?
The advice that I would give a person who just found out is to not get stuck in the depression, and don't get stuck in your work because that will allow you not to deal with the situation -- it keeps the focus off it. I would recommend they take a little time off to regroup, find out the services they need and can access. There is help out there, whether you're newly diagnosed or long-term. There is treatment available if a person needs to be on medication; there are support groups; there are mental health services. Once you have all the services that you can access, then you can slowly move your way back into your normal routine. I wish I could have gone straight to Women Alive as soon as I was diagnosed. But I was always working.
I think what works best is when a person understands the importance of health care and of their treatment regimen, how it works in the body and how it suppresses the virus so that the immune system can be boosted; understanding HIV, period.
How has HIV changed you?
I'm truly grateful. That's for sure. Grateful that God allowed me to see a better day. I don't take things for granted anymore. When God allows me to wake up and see another day, I take full advantage of it. I work in this field because it helps me to see, to stay grounded and to not forget where I come from. It's also about me giving back to someone else.
For some people I've talked to, it changes their lifestyle, how they used to live -- now they feel healthier and are not abusing themselves anymore. That's what happened to me. I didn't use drugs or anything like that, but now that I'm HIV positive, I have to eat healthier, I have to not get stressed out about stuff that I don't have any control over. Because people could say something to me and I'd just blow up. So it has helped me to really deal with myself and with issues.

Southern Californians can expect sunny skies and warmer temperatures through Tuesday, before another storm will move into the area and threaten to drop rain on Thanksgiving Day, according to the National Weather Service.
Los Angeles County skies will clear and dry up by Monday, and by Tuesday the area should be seeing temperatures closer to seasonal norms in the lower-70s, NWS Weather Specialist Bonnie Bartling said.
But temperatures will begin to slip downward again Wednesday as another storm system makes its way to the Southland, Bartling said.
By Thanksgiving Day, the NWS predicted a 50 percent chance of rain in both the San Gabriel and San Fernando Valleys, along with a slight chance of rain in the Inland Empire as the storm makes its way southward.
"It depends on how the storm tracks," she said.
But the coming storm will be, "a little bit warmer, as opposed to this last one," Bartling said. "Snow levels will be higher."
High temperatures Thursday are expected to be in the high-50s and into the mid-60s in the region.
Friday will bring a 30 percent chance of rain in the San Fernando and San Gabriel Valleys, Bartling said, but the storm should clear out of the area by Saturday, giving way to partly cloudy conditions and high temperatures in the upper-60s and lower-70s by Saturday.

(Money Manager) - Defined-benefit plans have a long history, dating back to when retirement benefits were promised to those who served in the Revolutionary War. As the number of industries and companies increased, so did the popularity of these plans. Defined-benefit plans tend to provide the security of greater retirement benefits, especially for those who live many years past their retirement date.

A Sunday last Fall, Part IV
This Sunday contained all of my passions: walk, take pictures, have coffee and eat. I so much appreciate to have friends who really enjoy eating good food.
And a note to all of you who have emailed me with questions about work (based on this post which I think covers much of it): There is no possibility for me to answer all of you, sorry. Maybe I'll write more on the subject here in the future. Thank you all for your interest!

murdered by members of the Bloody Bill Anderson gang on July 18, 1864. It's hard to even fathom how this affected the young teen. Soon after the death his mother Esther married Samuel Colley.
John followed in his father's footsteps becoming a farmer. I have found no record of John Turnage owning land, however, his mother had land up to at least 1897. I believe John worked that land with his mother. John married Emley O'Dell, his first cousin, on June 25, 1874.
John and Emley had four known children.
Due-outs for John C. Turnage:
1. Try to locate an obituary, either in Ray or Howard County, Missouri.
2. Research his religious affiliation and determine when he became a minister.
3. Reach out via message boards and local genealogy society to try to find a photo of John.

Congress needs to provide Sandy aid
To the Editor:
As Congress returns to Washington to confront the federal government's significant fiscal challenges, the members of the House of Representatives cannot and must not ignore the critical needs still facing New York, and our entire region, in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. President Obama has emphatically endorsed our region's request for aid, and the Senate voted to move the package forward, with bipartisan support. It is now up to the House to come together in the same way that the Senate did and act.
Passing the Sandy aid package should not be a matter impacted, much less stalled, by the same partisan contention or parliamentary process that overshadowed the "fiscal cliff" talks. Our demonstrated need and the House's past precedent should make this vote a slam-dunk. New York's congressional delegation has done an outstanding job coming together in a bipartisan fashion to make the case for this aid, and I thank them for their efforts.
Twenty-four U.S. states were affected by Sandy. The storm killed at least 131 people in eight states, including 60 in New York, 35 in New Jersey and dozens in Pennsylvania, Maryland, West Virginia, Connecticut, Virginia and North Carolina combined. Hundreds of thousands of homes and businesses were damaged or destroyed in our region, leading to billions of dollars in economic disruption and loss. As New Yorkers have bravely confronted the challenge of recovering and rebuilding, the work goes on, and they should not have to go it alone.
Every time there has been a storm or disaster even close to the size and scope of Sandy, regardless of the region of the country, the House has approved billions of dollars in supplemental aid — $290 billion in total since 1989 as part of 35 separate supplemental appropriations bills. North, south, east and west, the House has always acted and acted quickly –– except now.
I understand this is a lot of money, and these are tight fiscal times. But this was a big storm —the second most damaging storm in our nation's history — and the needs are great and growing.
Congress must put politics aside for public need and progress. Partisan gridlock is the enemy of a functioning democracy, and the core of democracy is the people coming together to protect and support one another through their government.
The fact is that not only New Yorkers ask the members of the House to support us in times of crisis. The whole nation is now watching to see whether they will be able to count on the House, as they have so many times before, when their time of need comes again. This vote is a vote of confidence — confidence that Americans can count on the House to function when we need it most.

Regarding Scott Brinton's column "Saving the world, $10 at a time, part II" (Jan. 10-16): I am happy to hear that Brinton is back in his home –– all of it. I am still drying out, but am definitely on the mend.
After reading Brinton's column, I was inspired to write a note about the nonprofit organization that I work with. Just before the storm, I was asked to be the executive director of the Long Beach Latino Civic Association. I agreed to a part-time position to oversee existing programs and develop future projects that would relate to our mission of environmental justice, civic participation and cultural awareness. My first day was Oct. 29. I have worked 60 hours a week since then!
We organized a task force and collaborated with many groups to host several events and programs to date:
Through the "Warm the Spirit" program, we organized a coat drive, served hot lunches, offered free clean-outs and helped storm victims register with the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
At Thanksgiving, we served 350 meals and gave out bags of food and cleaning products.
Through the Long Beach Holiday Toy Drive, we helped to organize and distribute toys.
Through the Adopt a Family Program, we matched families in need with families who wanted to give household cleaning products.
At the Three Kings Party, we offered refreshments, toys, and bags of food and cleaning
We have also shared our offices with other agencies in need of phones and computers. We have given All Hands Volunteers our office space to use as a base of operations. We have hosted the New York Legal Assistance Group on a bi-weekly basis. And we will hold a bilingual registration/appeal meeting on Jan. 17 at St. Mary of the Isle to help those who still need to register with FEMA.
As the new year begins, we see that there is so much need –– housing, employment, food and mental-health counseling. Since the storm, we have seen our client list quadruple. We would like to move our offices to a larger, ground-floor location. We would certainly appreciate any $10 donations we could get! Our website is www.lblatinocivic.org.

2010 Referee Week In Review - Week 14
The usssoccer.com Referee Week in Review is designed to address the issues facing referees at all levels by using video highlights from professional games as well as the U.S. National Teams. Written by U.S. Soccer Director of Referee Development Paul Tamberino and U.S. Soccer Manager of Assessment and Training Brian Hall, the Referee Week in Review will highlight specific areas of focus and current U.S. Soccer initiatives designed to improve performance and aid in the development of officials across the country.
Week In Review 2010
Week 14 – Ending July 4, 2010
This week brought interesting and thought-provoking scenarios and decisions that provide the backdrop for this week's analysis and review. Three decisions involving offside, violent conduct and a handling offense in which the referee team is required to quickly determine if denying an obvious goal scoring opportunity is evident will be used as teaching points.
Week In Review Podcast: For each "Week In Review,†U.S. Soccer produces a related podcast that covers the topics of the week.
Denying An Obvious Goal Scoring Opportunity and Handling: Law 12 – Fouls and Misconduct
This year, "Week In Review 1†first discussed the utilization of the "4 D Criteria†in evaluating circumstances that may involve denying an obvious goal scoring opportunity (DOGSO). The "4 Ds†are:
- Distance to goal
- Distance to ball
- Defender position/location and number
- Direction to goal
Through teamwork and communication, within the referee team, the referee must make a quick judgment whether a defending player has committed an offense that meets the "4 D Criteria†and taking into consideration whether the offense denied an obvious opportunity to score. If, in fact, the referee determines that an obvious opportunity to score was denied, then the referee must red card the offender for "denying an obvious goal scoring opportunity to an opponent moving towards the player's goal by an offense punishable by a free kick or a penalty kick.â€
Note: Teamwork is important in situations involving DOGSO because ARs (and sometimes fourth officials) may have a better perspective of players and play. The AR may have a better view of depth and distance which may play a vital role in determining if the "4 Ds†have been met and if the opportunity to score is obvious. Referees should make eye contact with ARs to get their input prior to making a misconduct decision (red card or yellow card). ARs can provide input by silently providing input by patting their breast pocket (indicates yellow card) or by patting their back short pocket (indicates red card). These signals must be-established during the pregame meeting amongst the match officials as should the teamwork during DOGSO scenarios.
Remember, DOGSO must involve the "4 Ds†and must deny an obvious opportunity to score. If these factors are not clearly evident, then a foul and appropriate misconduct (if applicable) should be administered. Although a decision that DOGSO does not exist may be the outcome, the referee is not precluded from taking misconduct action based upon the severity of the offense and the Laws of the Game.
Clip 1 involves a potential DOGSO event that requires teamwork, communication and an understanding of the criteria that leads to an occurrence of DOGSO. In reviewing the clip, ask yourself:
- Is there an obvious opportunity to score based upon the "4 D Criteria?â€
This is not an easy decision due to the fact that there is a defender running into the penalty area and it is not clear whether an obvious opportunity to score has been denied. The dynamic movement and speed require the officiating team, on the field, to determine the appropriate punishment. Image 1 provides a good perspective of the defender's position at the time the handling offense is committed. The referee team must judge whether the defender rushing in would have had a reasonable opportunity to deny a scoring opportunity and whether the angle of attack would have provided the attacker with the opportunity to score. Hence, the decision facing the match officials: A yellow card for unsporting behavior due to the tactical nature of the handling or a red card for DOGSO.
When making the decision, match officials should ask:
- If there was NO HANDLING, would a goal have been realized?
If the answer is "yes,†then DOGSO exists. If the answer is unclear or "no,†then a caution is warranted for unsporting behavior. Consideration should be given to the "4 D Criteria†and how they affect the opportunity for an obvious goal scoring opportunity.
When evaluating the running defender's position, officials should note that he is too far from play to influence the outcome. On the other hand, the attacker is in clear possession of the ball and in close proximity to goal. Plus, the attacker has a positive direction/angle to goal and his path will be uninterrupted. Given these "4 D Criteria,†the best decision is DOGSO and, therefore, a red card should be given.
Violent Conduct (Strikes or Attempts to Strike an Opponent): Law 12 – Fouls and Misconduct
One of the 10 direct free kick offenses is: "Strikes or attempts to strike an opponent.†Most often, striking or attempting to strike results in a red card to the offender for violent conduct. The 2009 U.S. Soccer directive on "Contact Above the Shoulder†provides the following guidance:
Actions aimed at the face of an opponent must be dealt with severely REGARDLESS OF THE FORCE USED if the actions are:
- Deliberate
- Intended to intimidate
- Endangering the safety of an opponent
- Insulting and/or offensive in nature
- Potentially inciting further action on the part of opponents
- Done in a provocative, inciteful manner
The above is not intended to address friendly contact that is not confrontational.
Striking or attempting to strike can be initiated in many different forms: the hand, the fist, the elbow, throwing a ball or other object at an opponent or a head butt. In each case, the referee should consider the fact how the contact is being initiated and the area in which is targeted. For example, contact with a solid object (forearm, hand, fist, forehead) with a soft object (the facial region) often should be interpreted as "excessive force†as the amount of force necessary to injure the opponent is significantly less. Also, consider that when contact above the shoulder is initiated, players do not have the opportunity to defend themselves; as a result, the player receiving the contact is extremely vulnerable.
Note: Match officials should review prior "Week In Reviews†regarding the concepts of mode of contact and area of contact the associated discussions regarding excessive force as these guidelines will assist in determining whether contact is merely a "push†or a "strike.â€
This clip involves violent conduct as a result of a player striking an opponent by head butting him. The player uses his head (hard surface) to contact the opponent in a very vulnerable area (the soft surface of the face). In addition, the act falls under the guidelines provided above and in the "Contact Above the Shoulder†directive. The player's actions are: deliberate, intended to intimidate, endanger the safety of the opponent, incite further action on the part of opponents and are executed in a provocative and inciteful manner. As a result, the player must be sent off for violent conduct.
Referees can attempt to take preventative actions when similar situations arise. Although the referee attempts to provide flow to the game by allowing play to continue as the goalkeeper gains clear possession of the ball (despite a bridging/tripping foul being committed by the attacker as the keeper goes up in the air to gather the ball), the referee must be cognizant of the actions that follow and their potential impact on the game. In this case, a quick whistle on the part of the referee to stop play as soon as the players go chest-to-chest would potentially prevent further action. Given the attacker's immediate actions, the referee could stop the game and eventually restart with a free kick for the defense. The free kick could result from the tripping/bridging foul as advantage did not materialize or for unsporting behavior for bringing the game into disrepute (review the "Game Disrepute and Mass Confrontation†directive. This would require the referee to caution the attacker for unsporting behavior and restart with an indirect free kick. By taking either of these actions, the referee is using common sense and is using preventative techniques to manage/control the game.
Once the referee has stopped the game, he should immediately sprint to the area of the confrontation. The referee's presence could act as a tool to prevent escalation of the situation. Upon quick arrival, the referee could separate or channel the players thereby defusing the situation.
Pursuant to U.S. Soccer directives and guidance, the attacker in this clip should be red carded for violent conduct.
Assistant Referee Positioning Aids Offside Decision Making
The positioning of the AR is vital to making correct offside decisions. This is especially true given the speed and dynamic nature of the game. Correct positioning with the second-to-last defender ensures the AR is able to properly identify player movement and player locations at the time the ball is played by a teammate.
ARs must have the ability to move as close as possible to the speed of play and the speed of the offside line. This enables the AR to continuously have the best possible alignment with the second-to-last defender or the ball which ever is closer to the goal line.
Note: Sprinting and sidestepping ability are key success factors for ARs at all levels. ARs are regularly required to sprint and sidestep and transition between these two modes of movement. Additionally, ARs are often forced to move into a full sprint from a standing or static position. ARs need to train for this type of dynamic movement and running to ensure they are fully effective.
The attacker who scores the goal is correctly declared offside as he is nearer to his opponents' goal line than both the ball and the second-to-last opponent at the time the ball is passed to him by his teammate.
The AR is able to make this decision as he is correctly aligned with the second-to-last defender and is able to maintain the speed necessary to remain in the correct position. In this case, play (player movement and speed) does not lend itself to sidestepping and having shoulders square to the field. Due to the fast movement of the offside line, the AR must run forward to maintain the appropriate alignment. Sidestepping would place the AR several steps behind the second-to-last defender and potentially negatively affect the offside decision.
The AR also has the aid of field markings to ensure the correct offside decision is made. In this case, the line marking the top of the penalty area and the grass cutting can help the AR decide defender and attacker position at the time the ball is passed forward.
Looking Forward – Week 15
Focus on communication among the officiating team. Communication begins before the game during the referee's pregame meeting or during email exchanges. Once the game commences, match officials need to utilize communication techniques established during the pregame meeting. Technology has helped improve decision making but it cannot be relied upon as the sole mechanism for transferring information. Often times, the "old fashioned way†of flag work, hand gestures and face-to-face conferring is the best solution to effective and efficient communication.

Published January 13, 2015
The San Jose Earthquakes once again rallied late to earn a 2-2 draw at Buck Shaw Stadium on Saturday against the Montreal Impact.
A pair of goals from Justin Mapp in the first 47 minutes had the Impact in control, only for the 'Quakes to start their rally in the 59th with a goal from Adam Jahn.
And in typical Earthquakes fashion, the equalizer arrived in stoppage time with Chris Wondolowski heading the ball down for Sam Cronin to fire inside the far post.
The home side kept Montreal goalkeeper Troy Perkins busy in the first half as Jahn sent a volley off the crossbar and Wondolowski headed the rebound on goal, forcing Perkins to make a scrambling save.
Perkins also did well to keep out a close-range effort from Rafael Baca by tipping the ball over the crossbar.
The Impact had one chance of note in the first half, but Mapp made it count as he found space to unleash a shot from 30 yards that clipped the right post and went into the net.
It was a fine strike from Mapp, and he had much less to do in the 47th minute to double his tally as he arrived at the back post to tap in a shot from Andrew Wenger, whose effort from a tight angle was tipped by San Jose goalkeeper Jon Busch.
Jahn scored in the 59th to cut the deficit in half after some neat passing on the edge of the penalty area, and Cronin provided the equalizing goal in dramatic fashion, firing home his shot after Wondolowski had knocked down a long ball from Walter Martinez.

Captain Michael Clarke has refused to sling mud at Mickey Arthur over his explosive claims of discrimination and disunity within the Australian team, but made it clear new coach Darren Lehmann had united the dressing room.
Just two days out from the second Test at Lord's with Australia trailing 1-0 in the Ashes series, Clarke's team have been rocked by allegations of racial discrimination and cancerous feuds within its ranks by former coach Arthur.
Disgruntled after his sacking, Arthur is seeking up to $4 million in compensation or his job back from Cricket Australia, claiming he was racially discriminated against because of his South African background.
Arthur was sacked last month before the start of the Ashes series, with CA claiming he failed to arrest declining standards of discipline in the team, culminating with David Warner's drunken night out in Birmingham.
Now Arthur is taking CA to court as he seeks payments and compensation through to the end of his 2015 contract.
The Seven Network alleged that documents tendered to court by Arthur said Clarke described former vice-captain Shane Watson as a cancerous influence on the team.
The skipper said the team were now as united as he'd ever seen under Lehmann.
"It's no coincidence Darren played a big part in that. I think him as a man, as a gentleman brings that to the forefront. He was a great guy to play with and he's no different as a coach," he said.
"Decisions have been made and made for reasons. We've got a fantastic group with a great coach who has united us and we're heading in the right direction."
The reports allege Clarke had described Watson and his faction as "a cancer", with Arthur calling himself the "meat in the sandwich" in the imbroglio.
Brad Haddin, the man who took over from Watson as vice-captain for this Ashes tour, said there was no feud between the opener and captain Clarke.
"The Australian dressing room is fine. There is no feud. I don't know how many times we need to answer that," said Haddin.
Arthur also allegedly said that Watson had tipped him off about the incident in which Australian opener Warner punched English batsman Joe Root in a bar before the series start.
Watson has previously denied that was the case.
Warner was subsequently fined and suspended and has since admitted guilt at playing a part in Arthur's termination.
Arthur went on to say in the tendered document that CA did not support him over the 'homeworkgate affair' where four players were stood down from a Test in India for failing to do an assignment.
He alleged that he was discriminated against because he was from South Africa and did not understand the Australian way.
"We're disappointed it has come to this position but Cricket Australia is confident in its position on this matter and I'm sure it will get resolved in an appropriate fashion," CA lawyer Dean Kino told Seven.
Clarke said he didn't want to trudge over old ground but is confident the drama won't affect team preparations.
"The timing makes no difference to me. It doesn't bother me whatsoever," he said.
"My eyes are focused on one goal and that's on winning this Test match. And I know everyone in that change room is exactly the same."
Australian Cricketers Association chief executive Paul Marsh said he sympathised with Arthur's situation, but is disappointed with the timing of the allegations becoming public.
"At Mickey's departing press conference he talked about taking responsibility for the team's performances and leaving the job with dignity," Marsh said in a statement.
"I fail to see how this course of action is consistent with his words."
