text: Severe Drought Sends Cottonseed to Near $500/ton July 26, 2011 12:30 AM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Fran Howard AgWeb Contributing Writer Email Texas is experiencing its driest consecutive nine-month period ever and the state's crops are in extremely rough shape. Producers are abandoning irrigated fields of cotton, corn, sorghum and hay as wells run dry. "Much of the dryland corn is a complete disaster," says Mark Welch, grain economist at Texas A&M University. The majority of Texas producers grow more than one crop and irrigated farms typically grow several. Welch says that growers who are running out of irrigation water are now deciding which crop to abandon. "Texas hay production is going to be a disaster," Welch says. Texas—the bull's eye for the drought that stretches from Arizona to Georgia—is not a huge player in the U.S. corn market, and this year high cotton prices enticed growers to shift some corn acreage into cotton. According to USDA's Acreage report, released June 30, Texas growers planted 1.95 million acres to corn, a reduction of 350,000 acres from last year. "Our acres were planted, but now we are having a disastrous season," says Welch. "At this point, I'd expect we would make half a crop on corn and sorghum both." Cotton devastated While not a huge player in the corn market, Texas is the No. 1 cotton-producing state, accounting for about half of all U.S. production. According to USDA's Acreage report, Texas growers planted 7.1 million acres of cotton, or 52% of the U.S. crop and an increase of nearly 1.6 million acres from last year. The state's cotton, about half of it dryland and half irrigated, is in dire shape. "A scattered patchwork of cotton will be harvested from all over the state," says John Robinson, agricultural economist specializing in cotton at Texas A&M University. But that's about as good as it gets. In West Texas where the majority of dryland cotton is grown, record abandonment has occurred. "I can't get anyone in the dryland regions to tell me they see or know of any dryland production," says Robinson. The West Texas crop accounts for about two-thirds of the state's total cotton acreage. "We are going to lose almost all of the dryland production out there," he says. West Texas' irrigated cotton is also in rough shape. "Growers spent a ton on (irrigation) just to get a crop up and growing," says Robinson. But seeds in many fields didn't germinate due to water evaporation. "It's been so hot and windy," says Robinson, and that ravaged many of the young cotton plants that emerged. A good rain could do wonders for the irrigated cotton, but no substantial rain was forecast for Texas for the rest of the month. When all is said and done, Robinson expects to lose half of the state's planted acres, the equivalent of 26% of the U.S. cotton acres. "I don't think we'll lose half of our production in bales because what's left is irrigated," says Robinson, and irrigated cotton tends to produce more than non-irrigated fields. Even with drought covering much of the U.S. cotton belt, NYMEX cotton futures closed near 99¢ per pound for December on July 22, about half of what they were at their recent peak in February. The dramatic price drop is the result of both increased global supplies as growers in China, India, Australia, and Brazil responded to high world prices and a drop in demand as manufacturers shifted to cotton blends—also a result of high prices. But for livestock producers and oilseed crushers, prices on cottonseed have soared. "I expect about 1 million tons of cottonseed in Texas, and that's it," says Peter Schlee, cottonseed merchandiser with Apex, Hamburg, N.Y. If Texas' crop hadn't been devastated, he estimates the state would have produced between 2.5 million and 3 million tons of cottonseed given the state's planted acres. West Coast dairies will need to ship cottonseed in from the mid-South or Southeast this year. October-December 2012 cottonseed contracts are priced at $400/ton or more, delivered to California dairies, with prices nearing $500/ton, delivered to the Pacific Northwest. Back to news

Al-Jazeera America debuts as newest news network
NEW YORK (AP) — Al-Jazeera America has entered the cable-news fray long dominated by CNN, MSNBC and Fox News Channel.
The Qatar-based news organization launched its U.S. network at 3 p.m. Eastern time (1900 GMT) with a one-hour preview before settling into a regular schedule. It replaces Al Gore's Current TV in more than 45 million TV homes.
At the same time, the Al-Jazeera English network was suspended. It had been available since 2006 online and in a smattering of cable systems.
Al-Jazeera announced this new American channel in January, claiming an instant foothold with the purchase of Current TV and that network's cable distribution. Al-Jazeera America is also available from satellite providers DirecTV and Dish Network.
Al-Jazeera America is headquartered in New York and vows to provide unbiased, in-depth domestic and global news.

Sorry I missed this earlier, but would like to comment even if I am late to the party.smyoung wrote:Question: Why are there so few women working as an industrial designer? ( females make up just 20% of the field, stated in FastCo. article http://www.fastcompany.com/1353548/forg ... -unleashed) Are there any studies/surveys conducted that seek reasons as to why this is the case?
Prior to landing a full-time ID position, I did notice a off-set number between men and women in my previous internships/freelancing jobs. Didn't think much of it. During college, Femme Den from Smart Design presented at our school of successful case studies they've conducted with various companies. Again, I didn't really give it much thought then. My graduating class of '09 were a good mix of men and women... Fast forward 3.5 years, I'm already seeing about a 30% drop in number of girls working as an industrial designer within my graduating class. Many left to pursue fashion, graphic, marketing, crafts..etc.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining that women are not equally treated/paid/respected. I am really, really, discouraged that this is just the reality, and would like to get your thoughts on why this might be the case (so that I myself can better prep to possess all facet of skills in the future). I had some theories of my own,...so feel free to tag along as well.
-Lack of mechanical engineering experience or understanding
-Lack of interest in how things work, how things are manufactured
-lack of historical support of female role in ID?
-Physical strength not meeting up to men? (handling tools and machinery)
-Maternity leave?
-Doesn't take design seriously enough? ( poor quality of portfolio?)
I'm also curious........
If you are a hiring manager, what kind of differences did you notice in portfolio between men and women?
What kind of characteristics/skills did women lack that were comparable to men?
Thanks in advance for your input.
And please, omit any negative comments!
Like the OP, I felt my class of fellow IDers at Pratt was a very even mix of male to female (back in 2006). Once I began working in the field however, I've only ever worked with one other female ID co-worker. I know that 6 years in the field is short but thanks to an "interesting" economic climate, I have worked in a variety of offices and industries.
The possible theories the OP suggests sounds more like possible determents to females choosing the ID profession, I would like to think that once they have completed their ID education most of these theories don't make sense as an obstacle to joining the workforce.
I cannot say I have met much adversity in the workforce being a female industrial designer, most co-workers have been nothing but happy and helpful to work with me. I really enjoyed the time I have working with another female IDer, we became good friends and keep in touch even though we are on opposite sides of the Earth now (can't say that for most of my male colleagues). I worked in lighting, medical, and footwear and felt I was treated fairly and no differently then my male colleagues.
I now work in the motorsports industry and it is very challenging, particularly as a female. I am again the one and only female designer, and not even as an Industrial designer but now as a graphic designer. I do suspect my gender played a role in which design position I was appointed to. I am not discouraged though, I have my foot in the door and will work to put myself back in the product development side of things. Perhaps this is the case with many other fellow female IDers- in order to find ourselves in the industry we want we have to take these stepping stones to leap to our desired positions.

President Corazón "Cory" Aquino — the icon of democracy, Asia's first woman president, champion of modern Filipino freedom — has finally been reunited with her spouse, fellow freedom fighter Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino, together with the Lord God in heaven…
As of this writing, her remains are still being carried off in a mammoth parade from the Manila Cathedral in Intramuros towards her final resting place in Manila Memorial Park, Parañaque City. She is to be buried beside her husband's simple grave.
It was raining profusely since last night (it seems the skies were crying, too), but countless Filipinos kept vigil outside the Manila Cathedral during the final morning mass for her (with a touching sermon by Tita Cory's spiritual adviser Fr. Catalino Arévalo, S.J.). But as soon as her coffin was taken outside the historic church, the torrent miraculously stopped — having lived a life of prayer and faith, don't even think it's just coincidence.
It's unfortunate that I work the night shift (and I still have a lot of eProcurement documents to track down right after this); I couldn't cover this historic moment live. So I just content myself watching the whole event unfold on ABS-CBN Channel 2.
After 23 years, Cory Magic is back on the streets! The massive throng, the yellow clothing and confetti, the Laban hand sign being displayed by those who honor her… almost everything reminiscent of the original EDSA People Power Movement have returned even if just for one day, for one final moment.
In Facebook, my dear friend and fellow blogger Arnold is teasing me that I'm a Cory fan. A Cory fan I am not (I even used to despise her for having approved the death of the Spanish language in the country). But ever since she apologized to Joseph Estrada for having made the terrible mistake of supporting today's most unpopular Filipina (aside from having lived a life of prayer and faith), she earned my full respect and praise. Thus I am sure that if she only knew more about the importance of the Spanish language in our country, she wouldn't have approved its deletion as one of our official languages in our current constitution.
And if memory serves right, Tita Cory is the only Filipina politician who has apologized publicly for her mistake; Mrs. Arroyo's pathetic "I am sorry" speech doesn't even prove anything because she is still desperately holding onto Malacañang.
Tita Cory has left us not just a legacy of freedom, democracy, and a prayerful life; she has also taught us the goodness of humility and repentance.
Let us be thankful that she has left a world of pain. She is now in a much better place, the greatest place in the universe.
From FILIPINO SCRIBBLES and ALAS FILIPINAS, let us hear this legendary cheer for one last time… CORY! CORY! CORY! CORY! CORY! CORY! CORY! CORY! CORY! CORY!!!

Getting Athletes Back in the Game: Low-Level Laser Therapy for Sports Injuries
By Robert Silverman, DC, MS, CCN, CSCS
Sports injury rehabilitation is all about getting back in the game quickly and with optimal health. A relatively new tool for the treatment of sports injuries is finding global success, and it is doing so in a fast, efficient way. In fact, Dr. Oz has called it the "no-pill pain buster."
Trauma from sports injuries causes damage to the cells that make up soft tissues. These damaged cells release chemicals that provoke a natural inflammatory response in the body, which result in redness, swelling, warmth and pain in the injured area. Persistent or recurrent inflammation can predispose athletes to early-onset arthritis or degenerative changes in their joints. This condition can affect the weekend warrior to the elite athlete.
The application of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) reduces short-term inflammation. Additionally, laser therapy significantly lowers the risk of arthritis frequently resulting from sports injuries. Laser therapy is used by professional sports teams and athletes to treat inflammation, provide deep-tissue therapy, and accelerate pain relief to help athletes minimize downtime. For the past decade, LLLT has revolutionized treatment in the professional sports world including NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL and USA Cycling athletes, as well as Ironman triathlon competitors, competitive runners, college athletes, former Olympic athletes, and elite cross-fitters.
Mechanism of Action
LLLT works to photobiostimulate chemically damaged cells via specific wavelengths of light in a coherent manner.1-4 Coherence means that light photons propagate in the same direction, amplitude and phase. This is important to maximize the depth of penetration in order to trigger a biological response.5
The cell membrane within the skin absorbs these photons via a photochemical effect, not photothermal; therefore, LLLT does not cause heat damage to the tissues.6
When cells are chemically damaged through injury, they stimulate the pain cycle. LLLT excites kinetic energy within the cells by transmitting these healing stimuli that are photons. Once photons reach the cells of the body, they promote a cascade of cellular activities. LLLT can ignite the production of enzymes, stimulate mitochondria, increase vasodilation and lymphatic drainage, ATP synthesis, and elevate collagen formation substances to prevent scar tissue.7 This is a critical step in reducing chronic, disabling myofascial pain syndromes. Simply stated, LLLT enables athletes to get out of pain faster and heal at the same time.
Literature Support
I have found the laser to be a superior tool for the rehabilitation of athletes. LLLT is a scientifically proven and effective treatment for a wide range of sports injuries, including acute and chronic pain; neck and back pain; bursitis; jumper's knee; tennis elbow; Achilles tendonitis; chronic joint pain of the elbow, wrist, and fingers; plantar fasciitis; and shoulder injuries. As supported by the literature in the field, I see consistent results with my athletic patients for a variety of conditions:
The ease of using the laser and the speed with which the athletes respond are key features of LLLT. Most laser treatment sessions last from just three to five minutes. In my experience, its versatility is unmatched because it can be a stand-alone treatment or used in conjunction with chiropractic adjustments, soft-tissue release, instrument-assisted treatments, elastic therapeutic tape or any rehab-oriented protocol.
An Example: Ankle Sprains
One specific application for LLLT is ankle sprains, which have an 80 percent recurrence rate and high rates of subsequent chronic symptoms. The most frequently seen ankle injury is an ankle inversion sprain.15
There are a host of causes and risk factors for ankle sprains; a previous history of ankle sprain is the most common risk factor. I've found LLLT to be instrumental in reducing the swelling and tissue damage that are typically associated with an acute ankle sprain. I've seen recovery times that have been literally decreased by days.
Chronic ankle sprains is where the benefits of LLLT can truly be seen. Interestingly, most athletes with chronic ankle sprains have a proprioceptive deficit in that injured ankle.16 Proper proprioceptive exercises coupled with laser therapy have enabled many of my athletes to avoid the recurrence so commonly seen with the injury.
After an ankle sprain, there is a significant delay in the onset of activation of the gluteus maximus on the injured side.17 LLLT applications to the gluteal regions have helped facilitate the gluteus maximus muscle in chronic ankle sprains.
Low-level laser therapy has varied benefits and functions as a superior alternative to analgesics, NSAIDs, medications and other modalities. Furthermore, LLLT reduces the need for surgery and has virtually no contraindications. Highly effective, non-invasive and safe, LLLT is easy to implement in any chiropractic setting.
In my many years of practice dealing with high-school, college, and professional athletes, I have found LLLT to be the best means for rapid recovery and increased performance from a sports injury. I consider it the most efficient, most versatile tool of the 21st century for sports injuries.

Curious about the hand strength and stamina necessary to successfully practice Reflexology. I have seen some seriously tough feet on my table, with the bottoms being like a leather strap.
I am considering adding Reflexology to my practice, or changing the direction of my practice altogether. I enjoy working on the feet, as well as receiving foot work. To me, as I mentioned before, a Reflexology session is as beneficial as a full-body treatment. I am also someone who gets a great deal out of Shiatsu. We learned the Ingham method in massage school...totally amazing outcomes (including the onset of a peer's menstrual flow), but the inching along really seemed to bother my joints.
My concern regarding stamina and strength has kept me from pursuing Reflexology until now. Would love some input!

For the second time in three days, Mount St. Joseph Academy's field hockey squad was taking on one of the co-leaders in the Suburban One League's National Conference, neither of which had been scored upon in conference play.
Last Monday the host Magic managed to find the back of the cage twice against the Neshaminy High School Redskins, duplicating the 2-1 tally in their win at Council Rock North the previous Saturday. Senior co-captains Ann Burgoyne and Allie Waters provided the offensive punch against the 'Skins, and junior Christina Black made 10 saves in goal as the Mounties raised their record to 6-1 overall while remaining 3-1 within the Athletic Association of Catholic Academies.
Neshaminy slipped to 4-2 overall, having lost another non-league game to Spring-Ford High School. The Redskins were due to meet Council Rock North at the end of the week to battle for supremacy in the Suburban One National.
After Monday's match, second-year Mount coach Christina Post noted, "Our forwards are working together better and better, and we're getting some subs in who are able to hold their own on the forward line. That lets us give people a rest when they need it, so they can really work hard when they're in.
"Our [penalty] corners are one of the strongest points of this team," she continued, "and our own corner defense has been great. Christina Black has been amazing in the cage."
In front of the junior keeper, two freshman defenders are seeing a lot of playing time; Taylor Gray and Norwood Fontbonne Academy graduate Eliza Ewing.
"They're growing every day," commented Post. "There's constant improvement in things like their understanding of dangerous situations, how to shift and communicate."
The defensive unit would be under a good deal of pressure in the last 20 minutes of the Neshaminy game, but in the first period the Magic were assertive, earning four corners to the Redkins' one and gaining a 1-0 halftime advantage. Sophomore Stephanie Mahoney assisted with a pass in front of the visitors' cage, and Burgoyne scored from near the right post.
A little over two minutes into the second half the Magic earned a corner, and while there was no dangerous scoring threat on the play itself, aggressive action by junior Millie Stefanowicz helped keep Neshaminy from clearing the ball downfield. In the aftermath of another MSJ corner, the ball rolled loose in a group of players in front of the goal and Waters knocked it in, giving the hosts a 2-0 lead with 26:48 left to play.
On a third Mount corner play four minutes later the ball was deflected wide to the left of the goal, and after that Neshaminy went on the attack. With 19:39 on the game clock, the 'Skins scored off a corner of their own, driving the ball down low towards the left post to set up the strike by Mallory-Jo Mason.
From there, the visitors pressed hard for the equalizer and hardly seemed deterred by a yellow card slapped on one of their players shortly after their goal was scored. Off of a Redskins corner two minutes later the ball briefly rolled loose in open space in front of the MSJ cage, but Neshaminy couldn't get there in time for a shot.
The Magic survived two more corners in close succession and then began to take the play to the other end of the pitch. A total of 10 saves by Black helped the 2-1 lead stand up until the end of the match. The Redskins had evened up the penalty corner totals at 7-7, and their goalie, Sarah Mitchell, came away with six saves.
A 3-2 defeat at the hands of league archrival Villa Maria remained the lone loss on the Mount's ledger.
"Villa is an excellent team, but the way we played that day was not truly representative of what we can do," remarked Coach Post. "We didn't play a bad game, but we didn't do what we set out to do. We didn't really execute our game plan, and that was mostly a mental thing."
Another familiar AACA opponent, Gwynedd Mercy, also gave the Mount a good run before finally succumbing, 5-4. With four sophomores and two freshman either starting or seeing a lot of playing time off the bench, the Magic should continue to make strides in the second half of the season.
As Post put it last week, "We keep improving and we're definitely a better team than we were just a few weeks ago."

fosterfact needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 27 designs submitted by 10 freelance designers.
Tough Guide
I am an English business consultant turned writer living in New York. I am travelling around the world interviewing people who really enjoy what they do for their work. I will be sharing their stories, their tricks & tips and writing about what we can learn from them. The project is provisionally called "The Tough Guide to enjoying work and life". An alternative is "The Tough Guide to Soft Skills".
Most of us will spend over 20,000 hours in front of a computer or in an office yet we will barely spend a moment thinking about how those hours can be shortened or made more enjoyable. This book is being written with them in mind.
My audience will be people in the 20s, 30s & 40s looking to enjoy their professional lives. They will likely be feeling stuck and wanting to understand what they can do differently to get 'unstuck'
The website / blog / book will be a mix of personal stories, practical tips, ancient wisdom and provocative life lessons of how to change.
Color: I would like the logo to be either an orange OR a green that will appeal both to men & women. The orange / green could be combined with dark grey and white.
Logo: The logo could be the words "Tough Guide" on a book. That said I'm open to something more creative. In due course I will likely write a toughguide specific by profession so I would like it to have the potential to be an umbrella logo.
Typeface: the typeface of "Tough Guide" should be clear, simple and bold. I like marble lower case and other fonts without serifs. I don't want anything too fancy or squiggley typeface.

On Memorial Day 2011, Fran Castan wrote searingly in this newspaper of the death of her first husband, the Look magazine war correspondent Sam Castan, killed by enemy fire in the highlands of Vietnam, just an hour's plane ride away from their apartment in Hong Kong. Traumatized, she fled the British colony, where they had happily settled short months before, and returned to the United States, carrying their 13-month-old toddler and a weight of buried memories that would surface many years later in her award-winning poetry. Last month, in recognition of ongoing achievement, Ms. Castan was named 2013 Long Island Poet of the Year by the Walt Whitman Birthplace Association, an honor she will receive on Sunday afternoon at the association's headquarters in Huntington.
Back in New York with no idea how she would live after Mr. Castan died, but with a B.A. in English from Brooklyn College and experience gained from working together with him before the war ("a life like Cinderella, only then the ball was over") to interview such cover-story subjects as Bob Dylan and Vice President Hubert Humphrey, Ms. Castan took herself to the New York Public Library on 42nd Street.
"I made a list of magazines and started walking north." The first one she came to, a block away on 43rd, was at the top of the list, The New Yorker.
The magazine "opened the door" to her, she said last week at the house in Barnes Landing, Springs, where she and the painter Lew Zacks, who were married in 1972, have lived year round for 22 years. Never mind that she was hired as an "editorial assistant," "Mad Men"-era doublespeak for the little fish in the typing pool, where, she remembered ruefully, "every woman had a master's." What mattered was the money, and the springboard, and the poetry and fiction editors, "who were grooming me to be a reader."
Three years at The New Yorker, though, were enough. "I got impatient," Ms. Castan said. "My life had been a different life, and it was taking too long. I wanted more responsibility and more money, and I'd met Lew." She quit to become a writer and editor at Scholastic magazine.
Not until she was 40, with a fellowship to the MacDowell Colony behind her and a job as a popular teacher of literature and creative writing at the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan, did she think of writing poetry.
"It was a language I spoke early on," she said. "It was part of me, like breathing, but the poets I read were dead white men. I didn't know any women poets. I thought, 'I will love this all my life, but it's not what I will do.' It wasn't something I ever thought a woman could or would do. But was I reading it? Was I loving it? Yes!"
"Then these things came to me. I started writing them down. They weren't prose."
Most of her early poems, which have been collected under the title "A Widow's Quilt," were about Sam and Vietnam. "We have never seen the Vietnam tragedy through such eyes, with such grief, rage, clarity," the political theorist and editor Robin Morgan, who published some of her work in Ms. magazine, said of the book. But when a visitor asked the poet whether the death of her first husband had been the most important event of her life, she protested, "Do not define a life by a death." The most "challenging" event, the most "difficult," the "saddest," perhaps. The most important, no.
On the 75th anniversary of the Poetry Society of America, Ms. Castan's poem "Operation Crazy Horse" won the society's prestigious Lucille Medwick Award:
A grand Kowloon hotel. A hedge
of red hibiscus. A tiled pool.
A masseuse who pressed fragrant
oil of almond into my body
in the full heat of the sun.
Elsewhere, northwest of Saigon,
a man beheld you, and fired.
. . . .
"The Lucille Medwick Award was the highlight for us" in the selection of Ms. Castan as Long Island Poet of the Year, said Cynthia Shor, director of the Walt Whitman Birthplace Association. "The qualifications are threefold: outstanding poetry, teaching of poetry, and general support of poetry on Long Island," she said, citing the poet's "five Pushcart Prize nominations and an extended teaching career." Ms. Castan, the producer of Poetry Pairs, an annual Guild Hall event showcasing one local poet of repute and one with national renown, mentors several younger poets here and often gives readings at the East Hampton Town Marine Museum and elsewhere on the Island.
When he heard about the award, Ms. Castan's stepson in California, Dan Zacks, sent his congratulations and a rare 1900 edition of Whitman's "Leaves of Grass." The book has occupied a lot of her time, often midnight to 2 a.m., since.
"I set myself a task to read the whole thing cover to cover before Award Day," she said. "Reading poetry is not like reading a novel, not simple syntax. I have to read very slowly. There's so much richness, if it's good — allusion to other works, music to absorb. It requires attention to detail."
Reading Whitman in connection with Sunday's ceremony has brought her back, she said, to her own work, which has a number of themes in common with his; she mentioned war, water, Long Island, relationships, family, and nature among them. Whitman, who, she noted, "was gay when it wasn't okay," saw the world as his family; Ms. Castan sees the world in hers, balancing, as her mentor William Matthews wrote in his introduction to "A Widow's Quilt," "the private and political with extraordinary dexterity."
To Hannah VoDinh,
a Young Poet:
. . . .
I will not rest
in this or any other life
until the Vietnamese names
rise on the giant V in Washington
until they are formed
in the same stone of honor as the American names
as you are formed, dear
Lotus, of a single, human moment of transcendence.
"One of my favorite things to do when I write from nature is to go with Lew when he paints and I write, side by side," Ms. Castan said. Plein-air poetry, she calls it. It can happen anywhere, often at Louse Point in Springs, not far from where they live. In 2010, after the couple spent two summers in Italy, they collaborated on "Venice: City That Paints Itself," published to acclaim both in paperback and a stylish coffee-table edition.
Getting ready for Sunday's ceremony, where she will be expected to read from her work, "has kind of got me back to my center," Ms. Castan said. "Okay, there's an award, but what does it really mean? It gives you all these opportunities. I am going over old work, unpublished pieces, new work — to see what I'll be reading that day, to see what's connected, not just random poems. I want to expose some new work, as well as what some people expect — and then to send things out."
What with one thing and another — life — she has fallen behind, she acknowledged, in submitting her work for publication.
"In my going through enormous files, I am arranging things into groups, and there are several manuscripts that are due to be looked at, revised, reworked. I write them in white-hot heat and revise for years, and if they don't reach a certain level I just keep moving along. Unlike other poets I know, I can't switch readily back and forth.

This afternoon, Chance said, "get a six pack of beer." I laughed out loud, incredulous. We never get six packs of beer (we're more wine and vodka types) so it was definitely something she learned in a previous home.
Then, as I played on my Wii, Chance kept saying "Stay. Stay. Stay. Noooo!" I have never taught her to "stay" so she must have been remembering her former home quite a bit today, for some reason.

Political analogy in respect to sport
Monday night football is on, you watch the game in it's entirety. As you watch, you interpret, analyze, and deduce authentic original thoughts from the game you have just witnessed. (Assuming you do not just listen to the commentators from the broadcast and plagiarize their thoughts).
The next morning, as you are eating your breakfast, you watch sports-center. After the 45 second of highlights of the game you watched last night, a colorful "expert"/ commentator comes on, and for three minutes this professional articulates a subjective perspective of the performance of the athletes.
Please note readers, that this man is paid to create this debate regardless of how accurate his assessment may be. For this purpose the "colorful" commentator on sports center does not share the same views in regards to the performance of the game which you watched
So you go into work later that day, and at the water cooler a co-worker brings up last nights game. Immediately he converses the idea's of the commentator on sports-center. Lets assume, your co-worker did not watch the game, but he did watch sport-center..
How do you objectively discuss the game, with this passionate co-worker who is not entirely informed, yet very insistent in their plagiarize idea's and passion?
Less than 2% of the people in this country watch the political game in it's entirety! Not to the fault of the general public, the political world is to vast and complicated to be followed entirely.
This is where we go wrong. Most of the people who do not watch the game or even highlights of the actual political process because of that complication. People find the colorful commentator who's values match their own, and then plagiarize their thoughts with few authentic idea's of their own. This happens regardless of political ideology.
Then it gets worse. In the world of sports there at least exist this idea of sportsmanship from which we develop an iconic status.
The exact opposite happens in politics in which iconoclastic battles occur until nothing is sacred, precious, or objectively proactive at the expense of opposing views. (typically manifested by corporate news in the aim of drawing revenue)
By not understanding your thoughts are a "target for the market", the values you hold are just emotional triggers which colorful commentators wish to tap into in order to generate revenue, and that following a colorful news media without objectively interpreting makes YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM.
Sport scholars and cultural critics have actually spent a good deal of time thinking about and researching these relationships over the years. Academics like us have looked at politics in sports and sports in politics.

Java developers hate to hear that their language of choice is becoming the new Cobol, but it already resembles that venerable language in at least one respect: Java is used far more often on the server side than on the client. That trend only seems to be increasing.
Case in point: The Mozilla Foundation announced this week that it's blocking certain versions of the Java plug-in from running in its Firefox browser. However, Firefox isn't alone in squeezing Java out of the browser; the Metro-style version of Internet Explorer 10 won't support plug-ins at all, Java included.
[ Also on InfoWorld: Find out what's in store for Java in Oracle's two-year plan. | Keep up with software development issues and trends with InfoWorld's Developer World newsletter. | Master the latest in Java development with our JavaWorld Enterprise Java newsletter. ]
Plug-ins, including Java and Flash, have been typically used to build rich client-side UIs for Web applications. But with the advent of HTML5 and the modern Web platform, many developers have come to believe that the benefits aren't worth the risks.
Java security under fire
The Java plug-ins blocked by Mozilla share common ground: They all contain a vulnerability that can be used to run arbitrary code on a user's PC. Mozilla has used its blacklist to shut out risky plug-ins before, as when it blocked two Microsoft plug-ins in 2009, but it's never barred so many versions of a plug-in at once.
Mozilla isn't the only one concerned about Java's track record on security. According to Microsoft, Java exploits on Windows machines have been spiking. They now far surpass attacks on other risky technologies, including Adobe PDF and Flash.
Plugging the holes isn't really the problem. For example, Oracle issues regular patches to fix Java security flaws as they're found, and the vulnerabilities cited in the versions on Mozilla's blacklist were patched in February.
The problem is that users don't always get the latest patches, due in part to Java's needlessly cumbersome practices. Though it installs its own updater, the patches don't always download and install automatically. If users get in the habit of dismissing the Java notifications, their JVMs can remain vulnerable months after Oracle releases security fixes.
It doesn't help that Oracle tries to underwrite Java with advertising and other annoyances. One recent Java update for Windows installed McAfee Security Scan Plus on users' PCs unless they opted out. Past versions have bundled browser toolbars. If you want users to take security seriously, the updates themselves shouldn't feel like malware.
A better way to handle it would be to ship Java updates through the normal OS update procedure. However, Microsoft discontinued its JVM for Windows shortly after it settled its lawsuit with Sun Microsystems in 2004.

I know this was the jets, but god please let this be the offense. I may have gravely underestimated this recieving corp. Golden Tate and Sidney Rice look like they are vying for Russell's attention like an archie comic and its twice as entertaining.
Russell Wilson looks like he is just toying with people at this point. he looks like a video game. it doesn't seem real. btw zach miller, btw baldwin was looking like a young bobby ingram down the middle (and keep in mind he is NOT playing to his potential because he is injured and basically playing as a decoy). btw our defense shut these guys out.
any time you are arguing how dope the hawks are and it involves the sentence "OH YEAH, MARSHAWN LYNCH" your winning. this is ridiculous. what if they finally freaking click together!?
this wasn't even a good game btw, it was two good quarters and still a blowout. (i know i know the jets).

2009 Weingut Jakob Schneider Niederhäuser Hermannshöhle Riesling Trocken MAGNUS - Germany, Nahe (3/4/2013)
This is showing much more stern thatn it did 2 years ago. No shock I suppose - perhaps shut down a bit. Still there's plenty of depth, built around citrus fruit, and supported by solid acids that provide a mineral infused finish. Even without its original baby fat the wine remains well balanced and food friendly. I see no reason to drink up any time soon.

Ghana Commercial Bank Ltd GCB Head Office P. O. Box 134. Accra Dearest HOW ARE YOU TODAY? HOPE ALL IS WELL WITH YOU. First of all, let me start by introducing myself. My name is Mr. Simon Dornoo I was appointed Managing Director of Ghana Commercial Bank Ltd. (GCB) effective March 04, 2010. I have an urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. I am the accounting officer of Mr. Ken Lay, Enron founder, who died on July, 5th 2006, at the age of 64 and his friend and partner Mr. Jeffrey Schilling, Ex-Enron CEO who was recently convicted 24 years for his involvement on the collapse of Enron, the energy trading giant in America. It will interest you to know that on Wednesday, 7th February 2001, Mr. Ken Lay deposited a total sum of 21M dollars and on Tuesday, 24th April 2001, Mr Jeffrey Schilling deposited 13.5M dollars in our Bank. These funds were deposited into a non-existing company's account which I opened in our bank (Ghana Commercial Bank Ltd) under their instructions, to avoid raising an eyebrown but unfortunately for them and fortunately for me, the 2 men are gone. So right now, we have the sum of 34.5M dollars lying in the 2 accounts without any proof of ownership as it was opened with non-existing companies name and the bank is not aware of the real beneficiaries as the accounts did not bear any name. As their accounting officer and financial adviser in charge of these accounts, I can comfortable present you to the Bank as the real beneficiary of the funds and they have no right to deny the application. Consequently, my proposal is that I want to seek your consent as a foreigner to stand as the owner of any of these accounts, since it has no trace or beneficiary which makes it easier and fine to transfer to your designated bank account as the beneficiary. The nature of my work as a staff of the Bank will not allow me lay claim on the funds, hence this proposal to you and be informed that as long as you are ready to cooperate and be truthful to me, I can assure you that the sky will be our limit. All documents and proves to enable you get any of the money will be carefully worked out and more so, I assure you that the business is risk free, as everything will be handled in accordance with the International Monetary Guidelines. I am offering you 40% for your cooperation in achieving this aim. Please, if you are interested in working with me, I will like you to send the below information's to enable me contact An accredited attorney to procure the necessary legal documents that will back up the transfer to your account: 1. YOUR FULL NAMES AND ADDRESS........................................... 2. AGE AND MARITAL STATUS............................. 3. OCCUPATION........................................... 4. NATIONALITY........................................... 5. TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBERS FOR EASY COMMUNICATIONS As soon as I receive your acceptance mail by forwarding the above information's, further details will be giving to you. Finaly, I want you to understand that this transaction requires trust, honest and above all, utmost confidentiality, to avoid escalating. Regards.

"We started to push for this about six months ago because we noticed that the lights on our avenue needed to change," said Maria Thomson, president of the Woodhaven Business Improvement District and executive director of the Greater Woodhaven Development Corporation. "I'd love to see the lighting replaced along our avenue."
Thomson said Jamaica Avenue in Woodhaven should receive the LED lighting for security purposes.
"Everyone can fell safer and all of the doorways will be better lit," she said.
The Department of Transportation has already begun upgrading lights in Brooklyn and portions of Central Park in Manhattan. However, Thomson said Queens should receive preferential treatment because there are many areas of the borough that are not well lit.
"We need it more than Manhattan does," she said. "They need to start looking at commercial districts in the outer boroughs."
A spokesperson for the DOT said, "The DOT has not received this petition but will review any request from the community."

I'm seeing "Comment Policy" in the main nav on two lines. Maybe add whitespace: nowrap; to #access li?
The "Leave a Reply" box is so unnecessarily huge that I right now, I can't even see the comment above mine. Is there any way to push the boxes closer together?
I just found out that the change in the "look" of the site was intentional. Fine with me, I'll just need to find my way around in it.
One issue: the "Featured Post" has some sort of white object, right under the words "Featured Post", which covers up the left hand side of the post. In my browser (Firefox 126.96.36.199 for Linux), the title I can see is "k Feminism". The left side of the text is also covered.
I can read the text by doing "view page source," like I have to do to read the mouse-overs in xkcd (obl. geekiness), but it _is_ a bit of a pain….
[WORDPRESS HASHCASH] The poster sent us '0 which is not a hashcash value.
Is there any way you could implement a mobile version of this site? I swear the old incarnation had one, but this one doesn't seem to (or at least I was unable to find a way to switch to it). I ask because the layout is semi-broken on my iPhone (which is the main way I read the blog).
Same. The content looks fine but the menu bar and header are getting jumbled together; it looks like this: http://screencast.com/t/r0P2r4bi
Would it be possible to provide an option to change the way the comments are displayed? The current setup works well if you have a reasonable size display and the comments aren't threaded too deep. But on a phone once the comments get a few levels deep it goes to one word per line which is really hard to read.
I don't know if I' the only one having this problem, but the mobile theme only displays an empty post called "front" and not any of the actual posts.
1. The main page does not have a "previous" link (or if it does, I couldn't find it.) The archive pages do, but on my browser, it overprints something else — it looks like a bad "captcha".
3. Entering a reply with JavaScript on is annoyingly slow – there is a very perceptable delay between keypress and screen response (as much as a second sometimes.) Granted, it's better than some websites, where it may be 5-10 seconds, but I still find a "preview" button much easier to use than real-time formatting.
The current style doesn't encourage exploring the archives. The only way to get to tags or categories is through existing posts. An archive that you can only access via the month is of limited use IMO.
Oh wait, I just found there is a tag cloud on the 404 page! And the search results. That's rather random.
There seems to be only 7 items per page when you do search which means a lot of paging, given how "generous" the search is (matches part-words, eg "mode" matches "model")
Some old posts seem to have mangled punctuation, like smart quotes gone wrong. e.g. It could have always been like this, or it could be my browser or something, I dunno.

Salvador Dalì, L'Annuncio
Photogallery10 Boots Shoes Women's Boots Snow Fashion Angkorly Booty Wedge cm Fur Trendy Ankle Navy qPSxU0wB
Salvador Dalì, Girls Black shoes ballet 620 Z Black L'Annuncio
The canvas The Announcement, produced by Dalì in 1960, is a preparatory study for The Ecumenical Council, a large-scale painting that the artist completed in the same year. As the title indicates, the work is dedicated to the Vatican Council II, announced by John XXIII at the beginning of 1959 and opened in October 1962. Here Dalì focuses on the definition of the upper part of the final work, which belongs to the Salvador Dalì Museum in Cleveland, and examines the figures of the Virgin, Christ and the Archangel Gabriel. The iconographic reference to Michelangelo's Universal Judgement, and therefore to the Vatican, is clear. Dalì recovers the positions of the Madonna and of the Son, which remain unchanged in the definitive version in which the figure of the Redeemer is inserted in an architectural frame reproducing the interior of St. Peter's Basilica.
