After watching the game tape, the 49ers have to be feeling a little ill. With only a few plays going their way, this easily could have been a comfortable victory for them instead of the Ravens. Colin Kaepernick was brilliant in the second half and made many terrific plays in the first half, but believe me, there are a few that will live in his mind forever. I know the feeling after losing two Super Bowls and fumbling once.
1) The goal line overthrow to Crabtree: Colin Kaepernick made a beautiful move out of the pocket and forced Ed Reed to attack from the secondary to keep him from running for a touchdown. On that side of the field their were two defenders, including Reed, and two Ravens receivers, Crabtree and Moss. Both receivers were open and somehow the ball found the ground between them. The 49ers could be in that exact situation another hundred times and they would probably score on every one of them. It was a four point failure.
2) Kaepernick's failure to throw for the first down to Crabtree on 3rd and 2 with :21 seconds to go in the half. The play was designed to go to Crabtree in the flat. Crabtree was wide open in the flat and Kaepernick didn't throw it. I'm sure the coaches in the press box were throwing papers in the air. There is absolutely no reason why that ball wouldn't have been thrown that I can think of. The 49ers would have had at least a first down and another shot at a touchdown. Instead they settled for 3. Another potential four point loss.
3) Missed Read on LeMichael James' Fumble: No one can blame Kaepernick for James' fumble, but if Kaepernick had that play to read over again, he would have kept it up the middle. There is no way he would have run for fewer than 10 yards on the play and may have scored. The Ravens did a good job hitting Kaepernick after all of those read options, and it may have impacted his decision on that play.
4) The interception appeared to be a poor read of the coverage caused by the corner falling under Moss's crossing route. I think Kaepernick saw the corner late and tried to change the throw to avoid the corner. It just got away from him and sailed into Ed Reed's arms.
5) Kaepernick did catch a break after the interception when he hesitated on a throw to the left to Moss. He wanted to see Moss open instead of anticipating the throw and it was throw late allowing Cary Williams to almost intercept it inside the 49ers' 20. Disaster averted.
Despite these few mistakes, Colin Kaepernick proved in the second half that he is an NFL star. His anticipation will continue to improve. I really believe this experience will propel him to a new level next year. What he accomplished in 10 games this year is pretty amazing, and I don't think the 49ers would trade him for more than one or two QBs in the league. Of course, the Ravens aren't interested in trading their guy either. You know, the guy with the new car.

MILWAUKEE -- Marquette junior guard Vander Blue announced Tuesday that he will skip his final season of eligibility and enter the NBA draft.
Blue earned All-Big East second-team honors this past season, averaging 14.8 points and 3.2 rebounds while leading the Golden Eagles to the Elite Eight of the NCAA tournament.
"I've had three great years here and appreciate everything Marquette has done for me during that time to help me develop," Blue said. "At this point I want to pursue my dream. I've prayed about it and discussed it with my family and think this is the right decision for me at this time.
"I really want to thank all of the coaches and staff at Marquette for helping me become a better player and a man," Blue added. "I also loved and appreciate the support shown by Marquette fans across the country during my career, especially during home games at the Bradley Center."
In 106 career games (80 starts) during his three-year career at Marquette, Blue averaged 9.3 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists. He finishes with 982 points.

The pair was married at a private mansion in Rincon, PR. Last night, the guests were treated to a private fireworks show. After the couple exchanged their vows, the entire wedding sang the song, "All You Need Is Love." We're told Shania sang at the reception afterward.
The photo above was taken moments after the ceremony ended.
Here's the thing about these two ... Shania's first husband, Robert Lange, allegedly left Twain for Thiebauld's wife back in 2008. Weird, right?
Either way ... congrats!

Obama calls for new Iraqi government
CHILMARK, MA - President Obama is giving his approval to the appointment of a prime minister to replace Nouri al-Maliki and urging the formation of a new government in Iraq as soon as possible.
In brief remarks delivered at his vacation spot in Martha's Vineyard, Obama said he and Vice President Joe Biden had spoken with Haider al-Ibadi, who was designated prime minister by the new president.
Obama also said the United States had successfully carried out targeted air strikes to support Kurdish fighters in their battle against Islamist extremists, and conducted humanitarian relief missions to aid thousands of stranded women and children on a mountain in Iraq.
He said the only lasting solution in Iraq is the formation of an inclusive government.

Hi, first post here. I thought this would be a good place to ask this since it seems many of the members of this site are accomplished mountaineers . I do a lot of hiking (some climbing) in Lake Tahoe and the Eastern Sierra throughout the summer, but only recently have decided to start doing some winter climbs. But I don't want to dive right in to some very steep colouir climb my first time out and get in over my head (literally!).
So, what are some recommended snow climbs that can be done for a noob like me? I took a basic winter mountaineering class and (kinda) learned some basic ice axe/crampon techniques. I'm definitely going to work on the basics for a while on some easier slopes until using this equipment is second nature, but when I'm ready to tackle a "real" snow climb, I don't want it to be too sketchy my first time out.
Again, I'm pretty familiar with the Tahoe region and most of the East side, but for now, maybe just some suggestions in the Tahoe area? East side suggestions are fine too, but since I live in the Bay Area, I'd prefer to keep it more "local" for the first few attempts. I don't know if there's much out there, as we didn't really even have a "winter"
Thanks in advance!

An Elegant Container Home in Richmond, CA
There are plenty of shipping container homes out there but few as elegant or well constructed as this Richmond, California home. Utilizing three insulated containers, designers have created a tough, well insulated and very green 1,350 square-foot home.
Designed and built by Leger Wanaselja Architects, the home's construction was well documented by the home owner. Due to the rigid construction of the shipping containers, they act as a weatherproof exterior siding, come pre-insulated, and are very strong. Framing was only needed for windows, and interior partitions and waterproofing only needed around windows and doors.
The house was designed to minimize energy use through passive solar design. Well placed windows, stacked plumbing, rainwater collection and solar tubes accompany other green building material:
- blown in cellulose insulation at the roof,
- 50% flyash concrete foundation,
- "green seal" low-voc paint on the interior,
- water-based urethane finish on the wood, and
- 100% wool carpet and bamboo flooring.
See the rest of the home specs here.

Sadlers Brasserie
Food & Drink > Dining in Wells
The White Hart Hotel
Sadler Street
01749 672056
A new head chef has taken the reins at one of Wells' newest and most exciting restaurants.
Jason Porter will now use his extensive and renowned culinary skills to make Sadler's Brasserie on Sadler Street one of the go-to destination restaurants in the West Country.
Having gained rave reviews as head chef of the New Inn, in Cerne Abbas, Dorset, Jason is hoping his well-crafted textures, delightful flavours and excellent presentation will win over foodies and locals looking for an honest and well-priced dining experience.
Originally from Wells, Jason discovered his passion for cooking while working at Ritcher's Restaurant (now Goodfellows) in Wells where his natural ability and drive resulted in him becoming head chef by the age of 18.
With a clear vision of what he wanted and need to widen his knowledge he then applied for a position at Gordon Ramsay's restaurant at Claridges. Having impressed the team he was offered a position at The Connaught, the five-star Mayfair hotel where the celebrity chef had taken over the food and beverage.
With further spells at Jamie Oliver's 'Fifteen' under Shane Osborn, The Ledbury with Brett Graham and The Grove, the chance to become head chef at a venue in his beloved West Country was too good an opportunity to miss.
He now hopes his extensive experience and knowledge will fuel a culinary revolution in the city where he grew up and started his cooking journey.
Jason said: "I've come full circle and it's great to be back. I can't wait to make Sadler's Brasserie one of the best places to eat in the region.
Sadler's is open for lunch and dinner daily from Tuesday – Saturday (closed Sunday/ Monday)

Twitter soars in public debut
Network jumps out the box to $31B, having never turned a profit
New York
Shares of Twitter went on sale to the public for the first time Thursday, instantly leaping more than 70 percent above their offering price in a dazzling debut that exceeded even Wall Street's lofty hopes.
By the closing bell, the social network that reinvented global communication in 140-character bursts was valued at $31 billion — nearly as much as Yahoo Inc., an Internet icon from another era, and just below Kraft Foods, the grocery conglomerate founded more than a century ago.
Twitter, which has never turned a profit in the seven years since it was founded, worked hard to temper expectations ahead of the IPO, but all that was swiftly forgotten with the stock's opening surge.
The most anticipated initial public offering of the year was carefully orchestrated to avoid the glitches and eventual letdown that surrounded Facebook's first appearance on the Nasdaq 18 months ago.
Trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "TWTR," shares opened at $45.10, 73 percent above their initial offering price.
In the first few hours, the stock jumped as high as $50.09. Most of those gains held throughout the day, with Twitter closing at $44.90, despite a broader market decline.
The narrow price range indicated that people felt it was "pretty fairly priced," said JJ Kinahan, chief strategist at TD Ameritrade.
The immediate price spike "clearly shows that demand exceeds the supply of shares," said Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter.
Earlier in the day, Twitter gave a few users rather than executives the opportunity to ring the NYSE's opening bell. The users included actor Patrick Stewart, who played Captain Jean-Luc Picard in "Star Trek: The Next Generation"; Vivienne Harr, a 9-year-old girl who ran a lemonade stand for a year to raise money to end child slavery; and Cheryl Fiandaca of the Boston Police Department.
Twitter raised $1.8 billion Wednesday night when it sold 70 million shares to select investors for $26 each. Had it priced the stock at $30, for instance, the company would have taken away $2.1 billion. At $35, it would have reaped nearly $2.5 billion.

Farmers once again struggled to get out into the fields last week due to persistent wet conditions.
Almost half of the farmland in the state is reported as having surplus soil moisture levels. These wet conditions have made for a very slow start with corn, cotton, and soybean plantings falling about two weeks below the five year average.
Corn growth is also being slowed due to the cooler than normal weather for this time of year.
A majority of the wheat crop has headed and some fields were reported to have begun flowering.
Cattle and pastures are in great condition, with only a few farmers having already made their first hay cutting.
Other farm activities this past week included burndown applications and the completion of most fungicide applications.
County agent comments
"Wet weather continues to halt corn and cotton planting. Wheat is looking good despite cool weather. Newly planted corn has emerged, but is off to a slow start. No injury reported due to cool weather. Mississippi River bottom land is flooded. Cattle and pasture ground is in excellent condition." J.C. Dupree, Jr., Lauderdale County
"This week we have sprayed some burndowns and planted a little cotton and soybeans. Most are waiting on the Friday rains that are headed our way. Most of our wheat has had a fungicide treatment. I hope our conditions change next week so we can resume planting. We are behind. Cattle are looking great and pastures are green." Jake Mallard, Madison County
"Very limited field work this week. Even with sunshine and 80 degree weather, soils were very slow to dry out. Wheat producers were able to complete fungicide applications for a majority of their acres." Jeff Lannom, Weakley County
Cheatham County
"Seven inches of rain over the last 2 weeks has greatly hampered all field activity. Only a few hundred acres of corn have been planted on some of the upland ground. River and creek bottoms are still saturated. No hay has been cut and no tobacco has been set. To say the least, we are way behind schedule." Ronnie Barron, Cheatham County
"Corn acres for grain not planted are being shifted to soybeans due to weather delays in planting corn. Most farmers are at the 60-75 percent level of acres intended for corn and have changed plans. Silage corn will most likely continue as planned, percent of corn acres planted reported this week reflects that change." John Teague, Bedford County
"Rainfall amounts across the county ranged from 1.47-2.94 inches according to reports. Some sunshine mid-week followed by more rain. Row crop producers just cannot get an opportunity to get much done in the field. Corn producers continue to plan for corn acreage, but time is running short. Wheat is reported as headed to flowering. Wheat/small grain haylage harvest is progressing. Pastures are reported as good and cattle are in good condition, although some producers expressed concern that fescue hay fields look thin." Ruth Correll, Wilson County
"Rain from Saturday through Monday produced between 3.5 to 5.5 inches of rain. Pea size hail on Sunday produced up to 10 inches of ice, most of the accumulations fell in Winchester, no crop damage reported. Showers at the end of the week added an additional half inch, keeping field activity to a minimal. Most of the corn has been planted and has emerged; growth has been slow due to wet and cool conditions. Producers are hoping to finish up next week with drier conditions in the forecast. Ponding water in fields planted has drowned a few acres, less than one percent. Wheat has fully headed and 60 percent of the crop was flowering. Producers have been busy applying fungicides by air and ground. A few acres of soybeans have been planted. Cotton and hay producers hope to get started next week with a drier outlook." Ed Burns, Franklin County
"Wet weather continues to delay planting and harvesting. Grass hay is maturing quickly and will affect hay quality at the time of harvest. Weather may improve next week and many farmers are anxious to begin hay harvesting and finish planting crops. Strawberries are 2 weeks later than last year, but the crop seems larger." Jerry Lamb, Rhea County

Memories from International Night
February 28th, 2010 by sidjain under Events, General. No Comments.
The International Week culminated with the International Night and Food Festival on February 25. However, the sights, sounds, and savors from the event still seem to linger around and tend to take me back repeatedly to the awesome night.
There was food from more than 12 countries and the passport-the ticket to the gala event, allowed the holder to visit the stall and absorb the offerings from 6 countries. Each table had a unique character, not just in terms of the food and setup but also for the students staffing the table, students who adorned their traditional attires, putting up their best to ensure that the guests left with sweet memories and came back for more.
A fashion show followed the wining and dining. Students from all parts of the globe displayed their traditional ethnic attires, bringing in some element of fun at times, keeping the audience on their toes. The star-attraction of the fashion show was a super cute and adorable little girl, daughter of Tetsuya Morito-second year MBA, wearing a kimono!
Some awesome dance and song performances followed, the audience clapping and clamoring for more. Suddenly, a short-bald Asian man in his shorts and wearing boxing gloves climbed up the stage. He introduced himself as a master of Muay Thai – Thai Kick Boxing. He choreographed some scenes from the fight with help from his students. In addition, he allowed some volunteers from the audience to come on stage and try their hand (legs actually) while he held the protective cushion. The winner was the 5-year-old son of Feras Hameedadd-a first year MBA, who got the master on his knees with just one kick!
The grand finale of the event was the Chinese Lion Dance that heightened the tempo of the place and Van Munching Hall was echoing with the beats of drums, the audience adding on to the excitement by their non-stop clapping and shouting.
The evening was truly a journey across cultures. In that brief period, the atrium of the Van Munching Hall was no less than an absolute representation of the globe, with people from every corner, however remote it may be, coming together under a common roof, demonstrating their pride and yet humbly sharing their values with the entire community. I believe that evening will always remind me of these two wonderful years at school and will remain an important milestone in my journey of life.

Learn more about how we recognize the scholarly accomplishments of our students. Menu Menu Advanced Placement Credit University credit is automatically granted to entering students who achieve a score of 4 or higher on AP examinations in language or literature in French and Spanish. Major credit is granted for a score of 5. The following course equivalents are established: In French, language grade of 4 = 202; language grade of 5 = 301; literature grade of 4 = 202; literature grade of 5 = 399. In Spanish, language grade of 4 = 202; language grade of 5 = 361 or 362; literature grade of 4 = 202; literature grade of 5 = 399. Students with an AP language grade of 3 may take FREN 202 or SPAN 202 or higher. Students with an AP language or literature grade of 4 or higher must register at the 300 level if they continue their study of French or Spanish. The registrar has additional information about earning advanced placement credit. Honors Designation Departmental honors require a GPA of 3.0 and an average in all major courses of 3.3. If you are interested in pursuing an honors designation, you must select a topic and adviser for an honors paper. Then you must register for FREN or SPAN 490 Honors during one semester of your senior year. For that course, you will write a paper of significant length and depth on the topic you have chosen. If your paper receives a grade of A- or higher, you will receive honors. If you receive anything else, it is simply recorded like any other course grade.

For that course, you will compile a bibliography, gather materials, and begin preparing a thesis. You will then register for FREN or SPAN 490 Honors in your final semester to complete the thesis. The final version of your thesis will serve as the basis for an oral examination by three or more members of the faculty. The quality of your thesis and of your oral defense determines whether the student receives high honors (A or higher), honors (A–), or merely a grade. Honors Course Credit A 490-course registration must be in addition to the minimum major requirement.

If you've never attended a Platts conference before, I'd like to draw your attention to its fourth annual Cellulosic Ethanol and Second Generation Biofuels Conference, being held Oct. 22-23 in Chicago.
Part of the McGraw Hill Companies, Platts is an information provider about the energy industry, and publishes price assessments in the physical energy markets. Platts also knows how to put on a top-notch conference. The information I've taken away from these meetings has been invaluable because the speakers are in the "thick of it" and really know that of which they speak!
If you are interested in producing feedstocks for cellulosic ethanol in the future, you might want to invest in this conference. One of the sessions will address the availability, cost and logistical challenges of biomass feedstocks, and it boasts some heavy industry hitters, including Bill Lee, CEO, Front Line BioEnergy; Doug Berven, v.p., POET; Spencer Swayze, mgr., business development, Ceres, Inc.; Bob Matousek, mgr., development and research engineering, AGCO Corp.; and Jim Lane, Biofuels Digest.
For more information, visit
AgMRC Renewable Energy Newsletter
And here's a good resource for corn-based ethanol producers, the AgMRC Renewable Energy Newsletter. Visit www.agmrc.org for more information. In this month's issue, Don Hofstrand, co-director, Agricultural Marketing Resource Center, addresses the issue over greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) of corn ethanol production.
Interestingly, he points out that crop production accounts for half of the total emissions from ethanol production. One-half of these emissions are in the form of nitrous oxide, which is produced naturally in soils through nitrification and de-nitrification. Ethanol biorefineries account for the other half of emissions, and natural gas used to run these plants contributes about two-thirds of these emissions. However, the distillers grain co-product provides a 29% greenhouse gas emission credit.
Hofstrand also notes that the net emissions from corn ethanol production are 42 units of emissions per unit of energy produced, compared to 92 units for gasoline. This represents a 54% reduction in GHG emissions compared to gas.

CATV / DOCSISComprehensive testing of DOCSIS 3.1 cable modems, CMTS, network amplifiers and components
The DOCSIS®3.1 standard was created to address two primary needs for cable communications providers: higher data throughput to meet consumers' demand for high data rate applications and flexibility to support a variety of applications. In addition to this, DOCSIS 3.1 needs to work alongside with the previous DOCSIS generations.
Test & Measurement Solutions for:
- Cable modems
- CATV amplifiers, lasers and cable network components
- Cable Modem Termination Systems (CMTS)
T&M Solutions for Cable Modem
Precise measurements on CM upstream channels with up to 96MHz channel bandwidth
With the latest release of DOCSIS technology, current Cable Modems (CM) will have to handle both DOCSIS 3.0 and DOCSIS 3.1 signals. In particular DOCSIS 3.1 utilises 192MHz bandwidth channels with OFDM providing high data throughput towards the devices.
- DOCSIS 3.1 CM PHY Testing
- DOCSIS 3.0 CM PHY Testing
T&M Solutions for Cable Network Amplifier, DFB Lasers, CATV components
Full channel load conditions for cable amplifier, analogue/digital lasers and RF CATV TV components testing
With the addition of DOCSIS 3.1 the frequency of operation will primarily extend to 1.2GHz and then to 1.8GHz. Current DOCSIS infrastructure might or might not be able to support these frequency extensions and therefore it is necessary for these components to be tested.
- CATV amplifier testing
- BER measurement testing
T&M Solutions for CMTS
Cable modem termination system (CMTS)
With the latest release of the DOCSIS specification current CMTS will have to handle both DOCSIS 3.0 and DOCSIS 3.1 signals. DOCSIS 3.1, for example, utilizes 192MHz bandwidth channels with OFDM modulation and constellations as high as 16 kQAM. This could become a challenge for CMTS since the modulation error ratio (MER) must be higher than 50dB. The Rohde & Schwarz signal generators and analyzers address this challenge, providing the following capabilities:
- DOCSIS 3.1 CMTS PHY Testing
- DOCSIS 3.0 CMTS PHY Testing
- Emulation of data traffic from multiple cable modems
- Ingress and impairment simulation

Sognefjorden [1] is a fjord in the county of Sogn og Fjordane in Norway. The district surrounding the fjord is known as Sogn. Sognefjorden is the longest fjord in Europe. Nærøyfjord, a World Heritage Site, is one of the fjords of Sognefjorden.
Other destinations
The Sognefjord is crossed by the second largest stretch of a powerline in the world. Its span width is 4597 metres [2]! Do not expect tall pylon at the end of this stretch. They are not required, because of the topography.
Get in
There are a number of ways to get to the Sognefjord.
By boat - Arguably the most enjoyable way is via a ferry from nearby towns; the most convenient would be one of the high speed catamaran services operated several times each day from Bergen.
By air - The nearest airports are located in Sogndal (IATA: SOG) and Førde(IATA: FDE), although the nearest international airport is located in Bergen (IATA: BGO).
By rail - Reaching the town of Flåm, sitting at the end of a fjord that branches off the Sognefjord, is possible via an incredibly steep railway line. Called Flåmsbana, the railway line is easily accessible from Bergen and Oslo.
By coach - Many of the towns situated along the fjord are also accessible by up to several daily coach services. Long distance coach services connect Sogndal with Lillehammer, Lom, Oslo and Bergen. The outer Sognefjord area is connected by long-distance coaches to Ålesund, Trondheim and Bergen.
Get around
There are several local bus lines as well as long-distance coach lines. Companies named Fjord1 and Sogn og Fjordane Public Transport Authorityare major operators. There are local high-speed boat services and ferry services. Keep in mind that some routes may have a limited schedule.
Car rental firms are located in Sogndal (three major ones including Avis, Hertz and Europcar), Flåm and Årdalstangen, as well as in Førde which is not located on the Sognefjord.

Morgan Freeman and Christian Bale's Outtakes From 'The Dark Knight Rises' Are Hilariously NSFW
It's safe to say 'The Dark Knight Rises' is the most anticipated movie of the year. In fact, the midnight IMAX debut of the movie in New York, San Francisco, and Los Angeles sold out six months in advance of its July 20 release.
So anytime anything 'Dark Knight' related hits the web – whether it be a teaser, a trailer or photos from the set – it's going to get a lot attention.
It doesn't even matter if the material is a spoof, as these reported "outtakes" from Christian Bale and Morgan Freeman almost certainly are. In the first clip we learn that Freeman, who also played his Lucius Fox character in 'Batman Begins' and 'The Dark Knight,' has never seen those two movies.
We also get some insight into the unusually low register Bale uses when playing Batman. It's pretty funny stuff, although Bale does get a bit NSFW. (As he is known to do in outtakes.)
There are seven funny clips in all. Check them out below.


text: When Cows Meet Robots April 1, 2014 10:01 PM Tweet Select sires whose daughters have good udders, particularly rear teat placement. © PHOTO: Lely TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Rick Mooney Farm Journal's Milk Freelance Which cows perform best in automatic milking systems? Equipment specifications and options get plenty of attention when dairy producers start planning a robotic milking setup. But don't get overly caught up in all the bells and whistles that go along with the new technology, advises robotic milking consultant Jack Rodenburg of DairyLogix in Woodstock, Ontario. You'll want to give some thought to what kind of cows you'll be milking, too. "To say that you need a special kind of cow in this kind of system is probably going a little bit too far," Rodenburg says. "Most cows can adapt very easily to robotic milking. But at the same time, if you are thinking about switching to robotic milking four or five years down the road, there are definitely some things you'll want to do differently when it comes to selecting and managing animals." Rodenburg retired from his 34-year-long career as a dairy Extension specialist for the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture in 2008. He founded DairyLogix soon afterward. The company specializes in working with dairy producers throughout Europe and North America on barn design and management of robotic milking. Bonus Content More on robotic milkers Do robotic milkers pay? The first robotic milking system in North America was built just 20 miles from Rodenburg's office in 1999. "It was pretty logical for me to take an interest in the technology," he says. Milking speed tops Rodenburg's list of characteristics that producers need to consider when contemplating a switch to milking cows in a robotic barn. "In most of our big parlors today, we don't pay a huge amount of attention to milking speed because it doesn't affect the bottom line all that much," he says. "In a robot barn, if you can get every cow milked in one minute less at each milking, you can increase the capacity of the system by 12%," Rodenburg explains. "That reduces the capital cost of the investment because you can milk more cows per robot." Steps you can take now to address the issue include: keeping track of milking speed, choosing sires that will likely improve milking speed and culling out cows that take an extremely long time to milk. Udder conformation is another trait that takes on added importance when cows are milked with robots. According to a 2012 study, cows with poor udder conformation experience slower attachment and higher attachment failure rates. They're also twice as likely to require fetching, which means giving up some of the labor-saving advantages that draw many producers to robotic milking in the first place. "Robotic systems do tend to have problems with cows whose rear teats are touching because the lasers can't differentiate between them. Even if they could, how do you attach an inflation to one teat when they're tight together without some physical action of pulling the udder skin to separate the teats?" That means you'll want to select sires whose daughters have good teat placement. "Make sure that there is some width to the rear udders." The good news, Rodenburg says, is that the industry has made tremendous progress in this regard. "Over the course of my lifetime, the udders on cows are looking a whole lot better today than they did 30 years ago," he says. The role genetics plays in the willingness of cows to visit a milking station in a robotic setup is an area Rodenburg believes merits more attention. "There is definitely wide variation among sires and cow families for how frequently the animals come to the robot voluntarily. It's a behavioral trait that the daughters of some bulls typically come to the robot three times a day, while the daughters of others come twice a day or a high percentage of them have to be fetched for milking." He points to a German study showing the heritability of this trait is around 0.16 when measured in early lactation and 0.22 in late lactation. "It's clearly something we can select for," Rodenburg says. "I would encourage the AI industry and the milk recording industry to start keeping track of it and actually proving their sires for their daughters' willingness to visit robotic milking stalls," he says. "Producers thinking about milking in a robot barn should be encouraging these support industries to look into these kinds of things." Rodenburg says feet and legs also take on even more importance in a robotic milking system. Bottom line: Cows have to be mobile enough to walk to the milking unit. "A lame cow is a problem cow in a robot herd because she will not go voluntarily to the milking stall," he notes. "She becomes a cow that you have to go fetch. She's going to visit the stall less frequently, and that's going to hurt her milk production." Since lameness and leg conformation are not quite as heritable as some other things, addressing problems is going to be more a matter of animal management than breeding, Rodenburg says. "So many different things come into play. Lameness can be influenced by nutrition, cleanliness of the barn, resting behavior, hoof trimming protocols, preventative and corrective treatment and more," he says. "Taking a close look at all of these is something you should be doing, whether you're going to be in a robot barn or a conventional parlor system. It will make you money," he concludes.

FROSTBURG, Md. – Frostburg State junior running back Mike Fourth ran for four touchdowns, but it was Utica's Jake Larson that propelled the Pioneers to a 44-27 win over host FSU, Saturday.
Box Score
Fourth ran for 108 yards and four touchdowns, two in each half, but was outdueled by Larson, who finished with 122 rushing yards and five scores to give UC (3-2, 1-1) the win.
Fourth scored back-to-back touchdowns in the third quarter as FSU (1-4, 0-2) grabbed a 27-25 lead with just 50 seconds left in the quarter.
Utica rebounded with 19 unanswered points in the fourth quarter for their first Empire 8 win of the season. Larson scored on a pair of short runs and Connor Butkiewicz tossed a 19-yard touchdown to seal the win.
Frostburg entered the contest as the league's top rushing team and finished with 228 yards on 53 attempts. Fourth scored a pair of first-half touchdowns to give FSU a 14-6 lead early in the second quarter.
Larson answered with three-straight touchdowns, leading to a 25-14 Utica advantage with 9:43 showing in the third quarter.
Fourth again scored back-to-back touchdowns to give Frostburg the lead, but Utica proved too strong in the fourth quarter.
Bobcat quarterback Ken Emmons finished with 217 yards in total offense behind 91 on the ground and 126 through the air. Freshman Ryan Simms was Emmons' favorite target, catching four passes for 42 yards.
Despite Larson's day on the ground, Utica's Butkiewicz completed 31-of-36 passes for 431 yards and two touchdowns. He connected with Anthony Acevedo on 10 passes for 252 yards and both touchdowns.
Defensively, sophomore Salaman Riddell posted 18 total tackles, including a school record 17 solo stops. He also added a pair of tackles behind the line of scrimmage. Junior Rowan Pinkett added 17 tackles, while junior Keith Smith made 13 stops.
Frostburg State returns to action next Saturday with an Empire 8 road contest at Buffalo State at 1:00 pm.

Blizzard seems to be planning an announcement for PAX East, according to Ars Technica, who share details of an invitation to see something "new" at the show, which kicks off in Boston, MA on March 22nd. "We've been working on a little something, different from our other games, and we're pleased to invite you to be the first to see it," reads the invite. "It's not a sequel, expansion or that rumored next-gen MMO, but it's something we're excited for you to get your hands on." They offer their speculation that this might be Blizzard All-Stars, their MOBA first announced as Blizzard Dota before a trademark scuffle with Valve.

Msg: 351106 of 351128
Thank you for this opportunity.
I witnessed the take-down of a stock. It appeared to be a concerted effort by short-sellers and their media cohorts. This stock has been on the Reg SHO list since last year when it was instigated.
I'm terribly disappointed in the lack of enforcement by the SEC. The excuse for not forcing buy-ins has been "volatility". There was no concern about volatility as these stocks were manipulated downward.
The fact that Reg SHO was started rather than enforcing the already existing rules against naked shorting and FTD's creates the impression that the problem is so immense that the SEC is afraid to enforce the rules for fear that it will bring down major brokers who have clients who are underwater. It also leaves the impression that the SEC is encouraging the illegal activities by grandfathering the old fails. It looks like cronyism and corruption. It does not instill confidence in the investor.
The inability of the average investor to know whether a stock is being sold off or shorted needs to be addressed. Short sales should be published as part of the daily record, readily accessible to all investors.
The short interest that is published monthly should be available daily. Investors need to know if the FTD's are included in the short interest report. The number of fails for each stock should be available to the public. Being on the SHO list has not stopped the problem. Stating the size of the fails would draw the necessary attention to those stocks who are being manipulated.
There are visible manipulations on a daily basis. The striping of the tape at the end of the day to lower the price on heavily-shorted stocks benefits those who have shorted and are paying borrow fees on the value of the stock.
Trading below bid on the off-exchanges apparently between linked accounts could be easily checked. Honest investors do not sell their shares for less than what is being offered. This is manipulation.
Thank you,
Donald B. Miller

The rain-soaked morning didn't dampen spirits at Transylvania County schools Monday as the new school year kicked off.
The rain-soaked morning didn't dampen spirits at Transylvania County schools Monday as the new school year kicked off.
"We were a little wet, but happy," said Rosman Elementary's new principal, Scott Strickler. "It went great. I really enjoyed seeing the teachers' and parents' and students' smiling faces. Everyone seemed excited, and that makes me excited to start the new year."
Strickler worked in Henderson County schools for more than 10 years, and this is his first year at Rosman, which has 360 students. Last year, Strickler served as assistant principal at Brevard Middle.
"I went into every kindergarten class this morning and everyone was all smiles," he said. "We're really excited about learning. I know that sounds cheesy and principalish, but it's true. I'm really excited about kids learning how to read. It's going to be a great 180 days with the kids."
Pisgah Forest Elementary Principal Mike Bailey echoed Strickler's sentiments.
"We had an awesome first day of school," he said. "This is my seventh year here and I think this is the smoothest and most enjoyable start that we've had to a school year so far. There were lots of smiles on the kids' faces and excitement to be here, and we're starting out with very healthy numbers (enrollment)" at 541 students. "It couldn't have been better. I missed all my kids over the summer and we're excited to get started."
Bailey said he saw "very, very few tears." A first-grader and a fifth-grader who had never been to public school before were a bit upset, he said, "but once they got into their classes and got to know some kids quickly, they were doing great."
"This year we're starting our second year of PBIS, recognizing positive behavior in school," Bailey added. The Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports program rewards students for good behavior with beads they can string onto a necklace.
"Kids are responding extremely well to the program," he said. "We had a great assembly this morning and when we talked about the PBIS program, the kids let out a bunch of cheers. It's amazing what kids will do for a bead. Every Friday every student gets to wear their necklace to demonstrate the number of beads they've worked themselves up to by that point."
Donna Wilde, principal at Davidson River School, described the day's start as "smooth as silk."
"We do a tremendous amount of lead work to make sure the first day of school goes well," she said. "We are an alternative high school for Transylvania County. We work with students who need creative alternatives for success. Our enrollment this year is 120 students. We put them back on track to graduate."
It might have been raining outside, but "It was a sunny and bright day at Davidson River," Wilde said. "We had quite a few (students) say they were glad that they'd participated in our summer program. For a lot of the students, the first day of school is kind of like a reunion because our staff is very stable and the students who we had last semester are looking for the same teachers this year, so there's a lot of 'Welcome back!' kind of stuff. It's an exciting place to be as an educator. The kids like being here and don't want to leave."
At Rosman Middle, Principal Greg Carter greeted students in a steady downpour. Despite the weather, "everything went great," he said. "We had just about every kid on schedule. It was a great start to the day."
"The excitement of a new school year is always a lot of fun," he added. "It's like I tell my wife: 'If I ever get to the point where I'm not a little anxious and nervous before the first day of school, it's time to retire.' It's the only career where you get to start over every year. It's a fresh start. The school business is that way."
With an enrollment of 285 students, Carter said he's excited to start the new year despite cuts to education in this year's state budget.
"This year we're facing a lot of budgetary restrictions and concerns, as educators are asked to do more with less," he said. "But our educators are troopers. They keep going and keep their enthusiasm up no matter what. They come to work not to make a lot of money but to make a difference."

Lisle, Illinois ~ A massive increase in border security spending, a rise in deportations and other factors associated with a weakened economy have significantly slowed the number of people who choose to immigrate to the United States illegally.
But the nation still struggles with how to handle the more than 11 million unauthorized immigrants who current reside in the United States.
Comprehensive immigration reform has been a significant policy issue on the national stage since the election of Barack Obama in 2008, and congressional leaders are in the midst of debating the merits of the comprehensive immigration reform bill introduced this year to overhaul old immigration policies.
How current state and federal laws affect this population and the cultural exchange along the divided borders will be discussed at the next Global Studies Forum, "Borderlands of Change: The U.S.-Mexican Border, and Immigration in a Transnational Context," at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, September 19 in the Krasa Presentation Room.
The event is sponsored by the Global Studies major, the Office of Intercultural Education and International Affairs and the Center for Mission and Identity at Benedictine University.
Forum speakers include Rogelio Sáenz, Ph.D., dean of the College of Public Policy and Peter Flawn Professor of Demography at the University of Texas at San Antonio; Alaa Mukahhal, DREAMr, activist, and immigrant who will share her story and discuss immigration policy and the DREAMrs.
Sáenz has written extensively in the areas of demography, race and ethnic relations, inequality and immigration.
He is co-editor of "Latina/os in the United States: Changing the Face of América" and co-author of "Latino Issues: A Reference Handbook." He also writes regularly for the Population Reference Bureau concerning ongoing demographic trends. He will examine the issues surrounding incarceration near the border, which includes state detainment and deportation laws, as well as the policies of the U.S. Border Patrol.
The Global Studies major at Benedictine combines the school's unique cultural heritage sequence with courses from a number of disciplines to provide students with an understanding of the forces that are shaping the world and prepare them to act as responsible citizens in the 21st century.
The event is free and open to the public.
For more information about the Global Studies Forum, contact Chandra Palmer at (630) 829-6250 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Affordable DIY JK Front Axle UpgradePosted in How To: Transmission Drivetrain on September 1, 2012
Bent front axles in JKs are just about as common as JKs. Get the point? If you add 35s and wheel your late-model Wrangler hard, we'll guarantee your axle has more shape than Megan Fox. Even mere 33s and daily driving can eventually tweak the Dana 30 and Dana 44 under these vehicles. Naturally, you can buy a complete bulletproof axle assembly to bolt in place, but the price is usually overkill for many JK owners. If you have a stocker that you're building into a decent off-road machine, however, you can add some beef to the axle under your Jeep without taking out a bank loan.
The stock front axle uses 2.5-inch-diameter, 0.250-wall axletubes. Mount 35s on the ends of this axle and it looks like the first Tinker Toy car you built: a spindly rod connecting two giant tires. Since bending the axlehousing is the primary issue, companies like Synergy Suspension have developed components to reinforce the assembly. The key upgrade is an inner tube sleeve, which increases the strength of the axletubes by almost 60 percent. These slide inside the existing housing and are welded in multiple places to add strength over the lengths of the tubes. In addition to bending, these axles come with weak ball joints and the knuckles deflect where the ball joints mount. Synergy makes an inner C-gusset to reinforce the upper and lower ball joint mounting locations. The company also makes heavy-duty ball joints which are much stronger than stock and are greasable for longer service life.
Naturally, there's a bit of work involved in installing these components. We decided to tackle the task over a weekend in our garage to show exactly what's involved and what tricks you'll need to know. The first thing you'll need is to collect a few special tools, if you don't already own them. In addition to the normal selection of hand tools, you'll also need a pickle fork, a ball joint press, and a 35mm socket to fit the spindle nut, all of which we picked up at Harbor Freight. You'll also need a decent MIG welder capable of welding 1⁄4-inch steel. For this, we used an HTP MIG200.
We sourced all of the Synergy Suspension products through Poly Performance for $425. These upgrades are far easier to do on a front axle that hasn't been drug over rocks or bent already. If yours is damaged, you'll need to straighten it before you do these modifications. Also, if you live in the rust belt and have driven your JK through even one road-salted winter, everything will be seized together, making disassembly much, much more challenging.
Torque Specs
There are quite a few pieces that need to be removed and reinstalled on the front axle to do these upgrades. Here are all of the torque specs you'll need to get things back together.
Unitbearing bolts 75 lb-ft
Axle nuts 100 lb-ft
Brake caliper brackets 120 lb-ft
Lower ball joint 80 lb-ft
Upper ball joint 75 lb-ft
Track bar bolts 125 lb-ft
Tie-rod ends 63 lb-ft
Drag link at axle 63 lb-ft
Swaybar nuts 90 lb-ft
Lower shock bolts 56 lb-ft

You may remember I posted last spring here about a cupcake class my daughter and I took at the Viking Cooking School. The class was loads of fun and provided us with a fresh stock of recipes and the hands-on experience we needed to make the recipes at home.
We made several different types of cupcakes, but we also learned how to make another little confection that seems to be taking the entertaining world by storm----cake balls! Cake balls have all the flavor of a big dessert packed into cute little meatball-sized package. Best of all, they look like a LOT more trouble than they are!
Recently I chose to make Red Velvet Cake Balls for a friend who loves red velvet no matter what the season. They make a beautiful presentation too! You have lots of options and your imagination is your only limit. You can use a commercial cake mix or start from scratch! It's never to early to start collecting recipes for all the upcoming holiday events.
You can serve them as "balls" or put them sticks as cake "pops".
Because the balls need to be frozen, you can even spread the preparation out to suit your schedule. I made the cake balls on one day and dipped them in chocolate on the next.
They were a HIT! I have since made mint chocolate chip cake balls and have plans to make coconut cake balls for an upcoming shower. I am including the recipe from the Viking Cooking School. I have shortened and adapted it.
Red Velvet Cake Balls
1 cup of cream cheese frosting (make your own or buy it!)
1 layer red velvet cake (I used a box)
8 ounces of semisweet chocolate or white chocolate
1 tablespoon zero transfat vegetable shortening (Crisco)
Bake the cake in a single layer and crumble into fine crumbs, discarding any hard edges. You should have about 4 cups of crumbs. Place the crumbs in a large mixing bowl and spoon frosting and mix gently. You may not need all the icing depending on the moistness of the cake crumbs. Clean hands work better than a spatula or spoon for mixing, but it's messy! The crumbs and frosting should be evenly mixed, but mix gently so as not to compact crumbs any more than necessary. Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled (about an hour) or freeze about 15-20 minutes.
Using a measuring spoon scoop out about 1 tablespoon of the the cake mixture and roll lightly between the palms of your hands to form round balls. They should hold their shape, but handle them gently to ensure they will be tender. Place the balls on a baking sheet line with parchment paper. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the freezer until very firm, at least 30 minutes.
Place the chocolate of your choice and the vegetable shortening in the top of a double boiler and set aside. Fill the bottom portion of the double boiler 1/4 full with hot water; place over high heat and bring to a boil. As soon as the water boils, remove the pot from the heat; place the upper portion of the double boiler containing the chocolate on top of the hot water. Stir occasionally while the chocolate and shortening melt, then stir until smooth. You may have luck doing this in the microwave; I don't.
Remove balls from freezer. Use a wooden skewer to dip each of the balls into the melted chocolate. Pause after dipping each cake ball. Hold it over the bowl to allow any excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl. Place the chocolate-coated cake balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Allow the the chocolate to set, then serve or store in an airtight container at a cool room temperature. ***The recipe recommends that you do not refrigerate or the chocolate will sweat. I made these in July when even inside temperatures were hot. I refrigerated; they sweated; nobody cared :)
I know this is long, but it is easy –really! I am linking to our favorite foodie hostess Michael Lee West at Designs by Gollum for Foodie Friday. Click on her button on my sidebar. Thanks for coming and y'all come back!

A pancreatic abscess is an area filled with pus within the pancreas.
Abdominal mass Abdominal pain Chills Fever
- Inability to eat
Nausea and vomiting
Exams and Tests
Most people with pancreatic abscesses have had pancreatitis. However, the complication often takes 7 or more days to develop.
Signs of an abscess can be seen on:
CT scanof the abdomen MRI of the abdomen Ultrasoundof the abdomen
It may be possible to drain the abscess through the skin (percutaneous). Abscess drainage can be done through an endoscope using endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) in some cases. Surgery to drain the abscess and remove dead tissue is often needed.
Outlook (Prognosis)
How well a person does depends on how severe the infection is. The death rate from undrained pancreatic abscesses is very high.
Possible Complications
- Multiple abscesses
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call your health care provider if you have abdominal pain with fever or other signs of a pancreatic abscess, especially if you have recently had a pancreatic pseudocyst or pancreatitis.
Draining a pancreatic pseudocyst may help prevent some cases of pancreatic abscess. However, in many cases the disorder is not preventable.

Legal Fight Over Design Of Disposable Coffee Cups
from the is-no-competition-allowed? dept
Dixie even provided alternative designs for Huhtamaki to adopt to differentiate its cup from Dixie's, according to the judge's order.Still, just the fact that lawsuits like this even exist in the first place shows how far gone these things have gone. It's as if every company feels entitled to having no competition whatsoever, and will sue anyone who offers anything remotely similar. What a sad state of affairs.
"Because Huhtamaki would either incur additional costs or sacrifice design quality if it were forced to adopt one of Dixie's alternative designs, the court finds that the product feature in question is functional under the traditional test."

As I take more and more time to heal, I have more and more time to think about the places I've been and the things that I have seen along the way. Now I haven't been everywhere or seen everything by any means, but I have spent quite a bit of time in some of the more "historic" areas, mainly the Stampede territory and recently the famous Memphis territory.
The similarities between the two are many. The most easily spoken of and related to are the amazing fans both territories have. Each territory has its stars and villains and some have worked both areas. But the one constant is the fact that the fans are rabid for their brand and will kill to defend its good name.
When "Showtime" Eric Young and I made our way to the Memphis territory in February and won the Mid South Tag titles from Too Cool Two, the people there went nuts!! It was quite apparent outsiders were not welcome.
It really is Lawlerland. The following and coverage of Jerry Lawler's territory is legendary. Anyone who has followed wrestling at any time in the last 30 years has heard references to the historic Mid South Coliseum and the battles that were waged there: Andy Kaufman, Jim Cornette and the Expresses (Rock and Roll, Midnight, etc.). The list of names is long, but all important to this wonderful business called wrestling because they have been gauges that the wrestling world as a whole have used to create new and exciting stories and characters.
Don't kid yourself into thinking that most of the best ideas and characters you know and love didn't come from Memphis. They probably did.
The thing about Memphis is that there are so many great minds there that it's hard not to succeed. In its current incarnation, Jerry is still King but behind him sit some great minds.
The Master of shill and fill, Jimmy "The Mouth Of The South" Hart sits at the right hand of the King and is an invaluable source of all information and ideas. And the left hand is Cory Maclin, the leader of Maclin's militia and Lawler's current foil. The interest and ratings these guys generate for TV in the Memphis area would set most TV execs on their asses. Truly it's ridiculous. In a world where promotions have trouble filling bingo halls with 1,000 people, these guys can draw 5,000+!! Yes you read that right! And why don't you hear more about Memphis!? I couldn't tell you. I can only speculate that they fly under the radar by choice, because if they wanted, I'm sure they could be "bigger."
The big news recently in Mempho though, is that they have moved fro the ultra historic Mid South Coliseum to a newer more modern venue, the DeSoto Civic Center in Southaven, Mississippi. Some call it sacrilege, but in the long run its a better financial and pleasing venue.
"We felt the Civic Center is newer, safer and more modern," Maclin told the Memphis Commercial Appeal newspaper. "It's not going to cost our fans any more money, but we'll be able to give them more bang for their buck."
To be honest I can't wait to return to Memphis, er, Southaven, and "break in" the new digs. Oh, and get back the tag titles we had stolen from us when I got hurt. Heh, heh.
Stampede was kind of the same way back in the '80s. There was a rabid fan base that turned up week after week to fill the 2,000-seat Corral. There was a vast array of wrestlers and real mix of talent. Giants, midgets, good guys, bad guys and some of the most revolutionary performers and ideas seen in years.
I used to spend hours in Stu Hart's basement Dungeon going through old programs and magazines looking at the history that had passed through the territory. It was one of the best territories, reportedly, to work for during an era before monthly and almost weekly pay per views. And like the Memphis area, they loved their wrestling.
I was included in that time period of fans. Stampede was a religion. On Saturday afternoons, that was it and, if you could make it, Friday nights at the Corral for tapings. I remember Owen Hart and the nefarious Karachi Vice feuding for the North American title and "the Toilet Bowl" Mahkan Singh (also known as Bastion Booger, Norman the Lunatic or by his real name Mike Shaw) once leaving my hero Owen a bloody mess after attacking him from behind and using a foreign object! I was incensed!! I wanted justice and was denied for weeks! My youthful bloodlust was building to a fever pitch when justice was served and Owen beat Mahkan for the title and fulfilled my dreams!
It's sad now. You really don't see the same level of enthusiasm or love for the performers as they had back then. Children, and particularly little girls, used to cry when their idol was brutalized by an evil baddie. Now the best we can get is a "Holy S**T" when a hero is powerbombed through a flaming table or crushed with a chair. And crowd response only comes from Pavlovian preconditioned catch phrases and tag lines. I hope that my kids will be able to feel the emotions I felt as a child for my heroes one day.
Back to the current day, I was lucky enough to be in attendance at Sunday's Warrior 1 show in Oshawa (Toronto), Ontario, and I want to send a congrats to Nick "Sinn" Csevetivjalwifruxhsidncich (the most confusing last name ever) on putting the thing together. Crowd was around 1,300 and, for an indy in Canada, that is a fantastic number. And by all reports everyone had a great time.
It was great for me in a therapeutic way as I have been jonesing hard for some action and I got to accompany A1 to the ring and punch out Pee Wee the ref after the Team Canada tag -- sorry about the stripping you down in the ring Pee Wee!!
I will be getting my fixes, though, in the next month, as there are a couple shows around Windsor in July. Sunday, July 10th is the Prime Time Wrestling show in Belleville, Michigan, headlined by Raven and Friday, July 22nd is the big Hart Foundation reunion for Border City Wrestling in Windsor. So next month shouldn't be too bad.
And returning to TNA doesn't seem that far off now so I am hoping I can hold it together a little longer.
Till next time kiddies. Stay Hot and feedback and questions can be sent to email@example.com or johnnydevine.net.
