LeCto is a guitar amp simulator inspired by an american modern high gain head. This simulator has 2 channels with 3 modes on each channel. It can go from crunch (raw mode) to modern high gain (modern mode).
Features :
-oversampling : determines the signal oversampling; up to 8x
-mono/stereo : determines the signal routing
-input : controls the magnitude of the input signal
-drive : controls the amount of gain
-low : controls the low frequency
-mid : controls the mid frequency
-high : controls the high frequency
-presence : presence control
-resonance* : controls the amount of resonance resulting from the interaction with the speaker cabinet
*Only active on modern mode
LeCto is only an amp simulator, so you need to use a cabinet simulator.
A big thank to Mikola Ptashnikoff for the beautiful GUI.

Let be a smooth projective curve over an algebraically closed field. The main goal of today is to show that . Both smooth and being over an algebraically closed field are crucial for this computation. The computation will run very similarly to the last post with basically one extra step.
We haven't actually talked about the Brauer group for varieties, but there are again two definitions. One has to do with Azumaya algebras over modulo Morita equivalence. The other is the cohomological Brauer group, . As already stated, it is a big open problem to determine when these are the same. We'll continue to only consider situations where they are known to be the same and hence won't cause any problems (or even require us to define rigorously the Azumaya algebra version).
First, note that if we look at the Leray spectral sequence with the inclusion of the generic point we get that by Hilbert 90 again which tells us that . Now has transcendence degree over an algebraically closed field, so by Tsen's theorem this is . Thus the last post tells us that .
The new step is that we need to relate to . On the étale site of we have an exact sequence of sheaves
where .
Taking the long exact sequence on cohomology we get
Thus it will complete the proof to show that , since then will inject into . Writing and using that cohomology commutes with direct sums we need only show that for some fixed closed point that .
We use Leray again, but this time on . For notational convenience, we'll abuse notation and call both the map and the point . The low degree terms give us . Using the Galois cohomology interpretation of étale cohomology of a point (the homomorphisms are not twisted since the Galois action is trivial). Since is profinite, the continuous image is compact and hence a finite subgroup of . Thus which implies which gives the result that .
So again we see that even for a full curve being over an algebraically closed field is just too strong a condition to give anything interesting. This suggests that the Brauer group really is measuring some arithmetic properties of the curve. For example, we could ask whether or not good/bad reduction of the curve is related to the Brauer group, but this would require us to move into Brauer groups of surfaces (since the model will be a relative curve over a one-dimensional base).
Already for local fields or fields the question of determining is really interesting. The above argument merely tells us that where is the function field, but this is true of all smooth, proper varieties and often doesn't help much if the group is non-zero.

Fine Cooking's Peanut Butter and Chocolate Shortbread Bars Recipe
Like your favorite peanut butter cups—with an added layer of peanutty shortbread on the bottom.
Reprinted with permission from Fine Cooking Cookies by the editors and contributors of Fine Cooking. Copyright © 2011. Published by Taunton. Available wherever books are sold. All rights reserved.
- Yield:makes 4 dozen 1 1/2-inch-square bars
- Active time: 1 hour
- Total time:3 hours
- For the peanut shortbread crust:
- 7 ounces (14 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted and cooled to just warm
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon table salt
- 9 1/2 ounces (2 cups plus 2 tablespoons) unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted peanuts, finely chopped
- For the peanut butter filling:
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter (not natural but an emulsified variety such as Jif)
- 3 ounces (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 6 ounces (1 1/2 cups) confectioners' sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- For the ganache:
- 5 ounces good-quality bittersweet chocolate, such as Lindt Excellence, chopped (about 1 heaping cup)
- 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons heavy cream
Make the peanut shortbread: Line a straight-sided 13x9-inch metal baking pan with foil, letting the ends create an overhanging edge for easy removal.
In a medium bowl, stir the butter, sugar, and salt. Stir in the flour and peanuts to make a stiff dough. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Prick the dough all over with a fork. Refrigerate the pan for 30 minutes (or freeze for 5 to 7 minutes), until the dough is firm.
Meanwhile, position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 325°F.
Bake the dough for 20 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 300°F and bake until the crust is golden-brown all over and completely set, 20 to 25 more minutes. Let the crust cool completely before topping.
Make the peanut butter filling: Put the peanut butter and butter in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or in a large bowl for hand mixing) and beat on medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add about half of the confectioners' sugar to the mixer along with the vanilla and 1 Tbs. hot water. Beat on low speed until combined, then on medium speed until smooth and fluffy, about1 more minute. Beat in the remaining sugar and mix, about 1 more minute, until the mixture is smooth and thick, like frosting. If the filling seems too stiff, add another 1 Tbs. hot water and beat for another minute.
With a knife or metal offset spatula, spread the filling over the fully cooled crust. The filling may not spread smoothly and evenly, but don't worry; the ganache will cover it.
Make the ganache: Put the chocolate in a small heatproof bowl. In a small saucepan, bring the heavy cream to a boil. Remove from the heat and pour over the chocolate. Let sit for 3 minutes. Stir gently with a rubber spatula until combined and smooth.
Spread the ganache over the peanut butter filling with a metal offset spatula to coat evenly. Let the bar sit for at least 3 hours to allow the ganache to set before cutting (or refrigerate for 1 hour).
Carefully lift the bar from the pan using the foil sides and transfer them to a cutting board. Separate the foil from the bar by sliding a spatula between them. Cut into 1 1/2-inch-square bars. They will keep at room temperature for 1 week.

Nothing says "Happy St. Patrick's Day!" quite like singing muppets! Since this is a blog that is mostly about food, I'd like to point out that the Swedish chef is part of the trio. I love him!! I remembered to wear something green to work this year, so I didn't get pinched. I even put on some green workout clothes when I headed off to the gym this evening for some strength training and cardio. Better safe than sorry!
The other way I celebrated today was, yep, you guessed it: green foods! I started the morning off with a bowl of oat bran, but this was no typical bowl. I had 1/4 of an avocado in the fridge, and I decided that it was time to try Heather's raw chocolate "frosting."Sarah made some a couple of day's ago, and I decided it was time to give it a try myself. I added 1 tsp of maple sugar, 1 tsp of cocoa powder and splash of water to the avocado and blended it up in the food processor. I think if it had been a bigger batch, it would have blended up better, but it worked out just fine!
It was interesting, and… good! I love avocado. I love chocolate. I love maple sugar. What's not to love!? I put my little bit of yummy frosting on top of my oat bran along with some bright red berries.
It was fun to start the day off with something new, and I had a bit o' green in my morning oats! Yay!!! I had a bit o' green with dinner too. I've been craving egg salad ever since I saw Junglefrog's batch. Aren't ideas contagious?!
I made two servings so I can have more tomorrow. I'm glad, because it was good! I used 2 whole eggs, one egg white, 1 Tbsp. of sweet pickle relish, 1 Tbsp. of light mayo, 1 Tbsp. Greek yogurt, 1 tsp. of dijon, 2 tsp. of chopped walnuts and 1 Tbsp. of fresh dill. There are at least 2 green things in the green bowl. Do I get extra points? 🙂 Each serving is 3 unofficial ww points, and lots of official points of yummy. I had a bit more green on my plate this evening since I ate the last of my roasted broccoli along with my sandwich:
The cottage cheese bread sliced up easily, and toasts up quite nicely. I froze about 12 slices, and we will see how it does after some time in the arctic. I've been using the freezer more these days, and I think the key is to remember what's in there. I found some long forgotten muffins a couple of weeks ago, and I didn't want to waste them. Freezer burn adds an interesting flavor. I hope to avoid that particular enhancement with the bread. I had a piece with my bulgur chili today topped with a little peanut butter and a chopped up date. It made for a tasty little dessert!
My shoulders are really tight from my strength training workouts on Sunday night and tonight. I'm trying to get better about not shrugging when I lift, but it's tough! I feel like I need to put on an iPod with a voice that repeats, "roll your shoulders back" ad infinitem. I try to remember to do it during the day when I'm sitting at my desk too. Years of having more weight in various places has thrown my posture a bit out of whack. It's good to have mini projects in the scheme of bigger workouts, and that is definitely one of mine.
Now, I'm going to roll my shoulders back, eat a few chocolate chips and make a cup of tea. I'm getting wild and crazy here on St. Patty's Day!! I'll make sure to sleep in something green. 🙂 I hope you had a great day! Tomorrow is humpday. Hooray!!!

Our Vineyards
Guglielmo Winery is situated within the larger American Viticultural Areas (AVA) of the Central Coast and San Francisco Bay with the specific designation of Santa Clara Valley. Our vineyards are comprised of approximately 80 acres planted to Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Merlot, Carignane, Grignolino, and Cabernet Sauvignon.
Our growing region is unique in that it is a mixture of rural, urban, and suburban settings. The site is classified as Region II with regard to climate which is synonymous with some of the most famous appellations in the world. The soil type is classified as a Pleasanton Loam which is essentially a gravelly loam. This translates into a soil that is well drained and consequently well suited to grape cultivation. Climatic conditions are dominated by our costal influence from both the Monterey Bay in the Southwest to the San Francisco Bay in the North. Usually, fog hangs over the vineyard in the early morning, receding southward as the morning progresses. Damaging low temperature dips are well moderated by the costal influence that greatly minimizes the threat of frost damage.
In the vineyard, bud break occurs in mid-March with harvest beginning in early to mid-September. Vineyard practices are designed to be as sustainable as possible. Vineyard canopies are kept open to facilitate light exposure and disease resistance. Reduced irrigation techniques are employed to encourage vines to express themselves fully. Crop loads are also matched to accommodate these rigorous conditions.
Guglielmo Winery is the oldest, continuously operating, family owned winery in Santa Clara Valley. Emilio Guglielmo purchased the property where the winery is in 1925, so 2017 marked the 92nd Anniversary of that purchase. The Winery is now owned and operated by Emilio's three grandsons.

Pastorius Park will echo with the sounds of Latin jazz, Salsa and Bossa Nova when Karen Rodriguez brings her Latin Jazz Ensemble to the concert venue at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, June 29.
Based in nearby Bristol, Rodriguez and the all-Puerto Rican band have been influenced by artists like Celia Cruz, Tito Puente, Carlos Gardel and Gloria Estefan, and generate an authentic and exotic sound.
Rodriguez and the ensemble have been together for more than nine years and offer up a wide variety of musical talent. Mariano Medina and Pedro Zayas both provide expert percussion for the band – a key element of the Latin sound – and keep the beat with congas, bongos and timbalis.
Rounding out the band are Juan Medina, who plays bass and provides vocals, and Suzzette Ortiz, one of the premier Latin Jazz pianists in the area. Together with lead vocalist Rodriguez, the ensemble has no problem creating a melodically spicy atmosphere for fans.
The rhythms of the Karen Rodriguez Latin Jazz Ensemble often bring followers to their feet and promise to transport listeners to a "Cuban nightclub, circa 1950."
The Pastorius Park Concert Series is sponsored by the Chestnut Hill Community Association, the Chestnut Hill Community Fund and Chestnut Hill Hospital.

"They are sitting on a gold mine and don't even know it…."
The other day, my colleague Roger Gorham, a transport economist working in Africa, shared with me an interesting story. He was in Lagos, meeting with stakeholders about setting up public-private partnerships for transport initiatives. One meeting revealed that, in an effort to improve service, a private entity had invested in new taxis for Lagos and in each had installed a GPS unit. This little revelation may not seem interesting, but it was very exciting to Roger, who also learned that the company has amassed more than 3 years of GPS tracking data for these taxis (which, incidentally, troll the city like perfect probes, nearly 24 hours a day, 7 days a week) and that this data could be made available to him, if he thought he might make some use of it.
Now, if you are reading this blog, chances are that you realize that with this kind of data and a little analysis, we can quickly and easily reveal powerful insights about a city's transport network – when and where congestion occurs, average traffic volumes, key traffic generators (from taxi pick-up point data), occurrence of accidents and traffic blockages in real time, and even the estimated effects of congestion and drive cycle on fuel efficiency.
As Roger said, "They are sitting on a gold mine and don't even know it…."

With Classic Cocktails, The Journey Is Not The Destination
A few weeks back I was sitting at the Anvil Bar in Houston, picking at a few well-seasoned, tender lamb meatballs and sipping on a Sazerac—my drink of choice whenever I check out a new craft cocktail bar. It's my yardstick. One I'm intimately familiar with. A classic drink simple enough that any bartender should have its recipe down to muscle memory, but complex enough that the difference between a perfect one and a just ok one comes down to the fine points of finesse.
But as I watched the bartender construct my cocktail, I realized that as much attention is paid to the tradition and lore of mixing classic cocktails, in the end, any good cocktail is judged by what ends up on the table in front of you.
There are many paths one can take to a perfect Sazerac, but the end goal is always the same. The floral aroma of lemon oil that hits your nose first, immediately followed by a whiff—just a hint, really—of anise. A faint touch of sweetness as your lips initially touch the ice cold inside edge of the rocks-free old fashioned glass. As you tilt the glass up, the first sensation is extreme, almost numbing coldness as the rosy orange, -7°C liquid passes your lips. As it warms on your tongue, faint notes of sweet corn and spicy rye work across your palate before the more floral aromas of Peychaud's bitters return, always accompanied by that anise. It finishes with a touch of bitter gentian, priming your palate for that next sip or perhaps one of those delightful looking pigs in blankets.
There are only five ingredients involved in its construction—rye whiskey, sugar, Peychaud's bitters, Absinthe (or Herbsaint), and a strip of lime zest—seven if you count the ice and water, but as any cook or bartender will tell you, the fewer ingredients you have, the less room there is to hide behind poor technique.
The classic method for constructing a Sazerac is to dissolve a sugar cube in a few dashes of Peychaud's and a couple drops of water in the bottom of a mixing glass, topping it with rye, then stirring it with ice until it's as cold as it can possibly get. When you start with near 80-proof liquor (as you do with a Sazerac), that final temperature is a colder-than-ice -7°C (that's about 19°F). I didn't believe it the first time I heard that you can mix ice and alcohol together and end up with a solution that's colder than either of them started, but physics can be a strange beast, particularly when there's enthalpy involved.
Once chilled, the drink gets strained into a new old fashioned glass—also ice cold, that's had a few drops of absinthe or Herbsaint washed around its interior. Not enough to really affect the flavor of the drink, but just enough to lends its aroma. Finally, fresh lemon rind is squeezed to release its oils and rubbed around the rim of the glass. When properly made and chilled, a Sazerac should stay cold until the last sip.
Of course, all of these rules are just pedantry. What really matters is what's in the glass at the end. Is it cold enough? Has it been diluted with just enough water? Are the flavors balanced? These are the questions one should be asking as they sip, not whether or not the bartender used Kold-Draft ice or how small they were cracked. Better yet, the drink should be so perfect that those questions don't even cross your mind.
These things can all affect the final process, but they are just means to an end, and there are plenty of choices to make along the way.
For instance, at the Anvil Bar & Refuge, they skip the whole dissolving sugar cube routine, opting instead for a double-strength simple syrup stirred together with the bitters. Would some folks look down at this technique (or lack thereof)? Probably. Would I have known if I hadn't seen the bartender do it? Nope. Did my drink arrive in front of me a few seconds faster than it would have otherwise? Indeed. And did I care one whit once the perfectly sweetened drink was placed in front of me? No damn way.
At Booker & Dax, Dave Arnold's bar in the back of Momofuku Ssäm Bar, they don't serve a Sazerac, but they do offer its close cousin, the Manhattan. Rather than constructing drinks to order and stirring them on ice, Dave opts to pre-mix and pre-dilute them with a fixed amount of water, storing them in noble gas-filled bottles to prevent oxidation, chilling them, and serving them in liquid nitrogen-washed coupes, all in the name of consistency. By separating the dilution and chilling steps that are usually inextricably bound to each other with the melting of ice in a stirring cup, he's able to control his cocktails with far more precision.
Once again, the end result is pretty much the exact same drink (albeit a bit colder and a bit more consistent), but the path to get there is wildly different.
Some bartenders will even flame their lemon oil as it escapes the peel, a move that alters the aroma of the lemon, but does not fundamentally destroy the basic balance of the cocktail—the dilution and chilling levels, the sweetness. Isn't it great that you can set part of a drink on fire and it'll still taste like a good drink—a subtle variation on a good theme—but do something as seemingly innocent as adding too much or too little sugar, or serving it in a glass that still hasn't chilled properly after its trip to the dishwasher, and it becomes worthless, undrinkable swill?
All this is to say that I often catch myself paying too much attention to what a bartender is doing, rather than to what is placed in front of me; I sometimes even pre-judge a drink before it's placed in front of me. This is no way to go about happy hour.
So thanks, Anvil, for reminding me of what I should have remembered all along: There are many ways to mix a classic cocktail, but there's only one way to enjoy them.

How Many Linux Users Are There (Really)?
Everyone Uses Linux, No One Uses LinuxHow many Linux users are there really?
It's a darn good question, and there isn't a darn good answer.
As Jim Zemlin, the executive director of The Linux Foundation, points out, "I am not joking or trying to be trite, but the answer to this question is: every single person in the modern world every day. Everyone who searches Google, picks up a phone and uses telecommunication infrastructure, watches a new televisions, use a new camera, makes a call on many modern cell phones, trades a stock on a major exchange, watches a weather forecast generated on a supercomputer, logs into Facebook, navigates via air traffic control systems, buys a netbook computer, checks out at a cash register, withdraws cash at an ATM machine, fires up a quick-boot desktop (even those with Windows), or uses one of many medical devices; the list goes on and on."
"It is hard to think of someone in the developed world who doesn't touch Linux every single day. The better question here is who isn't a Linux user," Zemlin concluded.
He's got a point there. If you buy something from Craigslist or keep up with friends on Facebook, you're using Linux. To be exact, you're using Big-IP 9.4.6, which is an embedded high-speed networking system that incorporates Linux. Do you watch videos on YouTube? Linux again. Google? Yes, they run Linux too.
Gartner and IDC Don't CountBy this yard-stick, everyone on the planet who uses the Internet is a Linux user. While certainly true, it is only one way of measuring Linux use. The major analysis firms that track operating system use, Gartner and IDC, focus on the server market. Their numbers 'indicate' that Linux is a powerful player in the server market, but their research doesn't translate well into giving us an actual number of Linux servers.
Gartner, of late, tends to focus on server hardware sales. So, while we know that IBM and HP both sell Linux-powered servers, Gartner's data doesn't easily tell us how many of those systems are shipping running Linux. IDC, on the other hand, tends to look at the overall cash value of server sales. That's valuable information, but, since Linux tends to be the cheapest server operating system offering, this methodology also under-represents Linux's impact on IT.
In both cases, the big two research firms are only looking at server sales. They're not looking at what IT departments are actually running in their server rooms. In my own consulting experience, most of the SMB (small-to-medium sized businesses) use re-purposed x86 desktops and servers to run Linux.
They can do this because Linux is cheap. With Linux, any PC from the last eight-years makes a perfectly acceptable small business file and print server; Web server, VPN (virtual private network) server, etc. etc.
0.83%How do you measure Linux's low-tech server impact? It's not easy. For every corporate customer running the latest RHEL (Red Hat Enterprise Linux), they are probably a dozen businesses running Fedora or CentOS.
And, then there's the desktop. Here, the numbers get truly fuzzy. We know, without a doubt, that there's are tens of millions of Linux servers in use. But when it comes to the desktop, we just don't know.
It would appear that a good rule of thumb would be the number of user desktops that report they're running Linux to Web server logs. For example, we often cite the percentage of desktop Linux users as being under 1% because Net Applications (http://www.netapplications.com/) Web site survey shows, in its January 2009 survey, that Linux has only 0.83% of the market.

This is an excerpt from Active Start for Healthy Kids by Stephen J. Virgilio, PhD.
Fun Family Physical Activity
Parents are the most influential force in a child's life. Studies have found that children are more likely to be active if their parents or siblings are active, if their parents support play and physical activity, and if they have convenient access to play areas and equipment outdoors.
Teachers can help by educating parents about the benefits of physical activity and good nutrition. They can also communicate to parents that the health of their child is a critical parental responsibility and should not be taken lightly.
Parents should be mindful of the following simple guidelines as they undertake fun family fitness activities.
The fun physical activities described in this chapter are designed for parents to share with their children. However, many of the activities can be adapted for use in the preschool setting. For example, activities such as Backyard Bubbles, Zoo Wild, and the Bubble-Wrap Broad Jump could be performed indoors on a mat, and the Squirrels Squirreling obstacle course could be set up on a large mat or carpeted surface as well.
The Snake in the Grass, Circle Shoe Jump, and Sponge Toss activities could be done in an outdoor area as long as the weather permits and there is adequate supervision. The latter would probably require the children to wear some type of waterproof garment to keep their clothing from getting too wet and may therefore be inappropriate for a school setting.
The Exercise Easter Egg Hunt, Sidewalk Scavenger Hunt, A to Z of Mall Walking, NBA (National Baby Association) Basketball, and Get Up and Pick Up activities could be adapted for the preschool setting with little modification.
Remember, when planning indoor games and activities, always make safety a priority. Establish boundaries, and make sure the play area is clear of obstacles and hazards.
Sidewalk Scavenger Hunt . . . . Ages 2 to 3
>>> Objectives
Increase physical activity levels, walking skills, counting skills
>>> Participants
Parents, two or three children
>>> Equipment and Materials
One lightweight plastic basket
>>> Description
Plan this activity on a pleasant day. Explain to the children that you are going on a scavenger hunt throughout the neighborhood. Before you begin, review the items you will try to find and how many of each:
Two rocks
Three twigs
Three pebbles
Four blades of grass
One weed
One flower
Walk together throughout the neighborhood as a family, taking care to stay on the sidewalk. You will have to help the children find and count the items on the scavenger hunt list. When all the items have been found, head back home and help the children review the list and count the number of items found.
>>> Modifications
Go to the beach or the local park and add different items to the scavenger hunt.
Backyard Bubbles . . . . . . . . Ages 2 to 6
Body awareness, visual tracking skills, body part identification
Two to four children
Backyard or open grassy area, jar of bubble solution, table fan, plastic wand or electric bubble blower, one or two bath towels
Start by asking the children to burst the bubbles before they reach the ground.
Next, see how many they can catch and hold for a few seconds before they burst or hit the ground.
Then ask them to burst the bubbles again, but this time without using their hands. Instead, they must use various body parts such as their nose, elbow, knee, or toes.
Finally, have a child grab one end of a bath towel while you (or another child) grab the other end, and together try to catch as many bubbles as possible.
Purchase extra-strength bubble solution and try to stack the bubbles one on top of the other using an open-hole bubble catcher, or try using a piece of paper or a Ping-Pong paddle to catch and stack the bubbles.
Snake in the Grass . . . . . . . Ages 4 to 6
Running, chasing skills
Two children
One standard plastic jump rope
Hold one end of the rope and begin to jog around the backyard while wiggling it behind you as if it were a snake in the grass. Instruct the children to wait for the "Go" signal and then run behind you and try to catch the snake by stepping on the end of the rope. Try reversing roles, with one of the children acting as the snake in the grass while you chase from behind.
Ask two children to try this activity without parental help. One begins as the snake and the other as the chaser. Have them reverse roles so that they both get equal time acting as snake and chaser.

|Official name
|Fort Townshend National Historic Site of Canada
The RoomsAllen Allen Shirt Solly Solly Navy XPOnFvzwP is a cultural facility in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. The facility opened in 2005 and houses the Art Gallery of Newfoundland and Labrador, the Provincial Archives of Newfoundland and Labrador and the Provincial Museum of Newfoundland and Labrador.[2]
The facility was constructed on a hill overlooking the port city, at a historic location once occupied by Fort Townshend. The building can be seen from almost any point in St. John's, and the facility has, since its construction, competed with its neighbour, Basilica of St. John the Baptist, for the dominance of the St. John's skyline.

Origins of the name[edit]
The building's name, as well as its architecture, is a reference to the simple gable-roofed sheds (called "fishing rooms") that were once so common at the waterline in Newfoundland fishing villages.[citation needed]
Fort Townshend[edit]
During the planning and construction of the building much opposition was raised by archaeologists and historians because of its location. Previously on the same strategic spot of land was located Fort Townshend, an 18th-century military fort, that was eventually buried under ground. The great star-shaped citadel, one of the largest British fortifications in North America at the time, was built to defend Britain's fishing interests. With the withdrawal of the imperial garrison in 1870, the site became the home of the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary and, later, the St. John's Fire Department.
The site was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1951.[3]
On-site interpretation allows visitors to explore this historic past. Careful research and documentation before construction ensured that future study of the site is possible.[4]
Outdoor Exhibit[edit]
In March 2013, The Rooms Corporation announced [5] it would developing an outdoor space to improve access and safety, and to commemorate the history of Fort Townshend.[6] The outline of the Fort is to be marked with granite pavers along a lit pathway, as an extension of the Grand Concourse. Plans to excavate archaeological remains of Fort Townshend, which are largely located under the building, were not defined in the scope of the project.[6] The outdoor space will be completed by the Grand Concourse Authority [7] in two phases between 2013 and 2014.
Cultural facilities[edit]
The facility was officially opened on June 29, 2005. The building offers a panoramic view of downtown St. John's and its architecture, St. John's Harbour, Casual shirts Blue People Rayon Regular wqB1tU and Button Betterlife Slim Green Solid Down Women's Career Shirt Basic Long Sleeve xXgqF04rgw. The Rooms combines three divisions: Archives, Art Gallery, and Museum.
Provincial Archives[edit]
Located on the third floor of The Rooms, the mandate of Archives Division is to preserve records of the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador which have enduring value, whether legal, fiscal, evidential or for research purposes. The Archives also collects documents and other records from private sources if they are deemed to have value to the history of the province.[8]
The Archives database can be accessed here.
Provincial Art Gallery[edit]
The Rooms Provincial Art Gallery is the premiere public gallery in the province dedicated to developing and exhibiting contemporary art, with 10,000 square feet of space for permanent collections and travelling exhibits. Since opening in 2005, the gallery has produced an average of 15 exhibitions annually; ranging from new-media installations to Renaissance printmaking. The gallery presents new work from across Canada and the world, with a special (though not exclusive) focus on artists working in Newfoundland and Labrador.
The gallery manages several collections, known together as the "Permanent Collections": Memorial University of Newfoundland; the J. K. Pratt Memorial Collection; The Rooms Collection; and the Art Procurement Collection of the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador (Provincial Art Bank). Altogether, they comprise over 7,000 works of art, primarily post-1960 Canadian art. Emphasis is placed on Slit Printed Femme One Women's Palazzo Side with wFHnYBqx, with major holdings of such artists as Christopher Pratt, Mary Pratt, Gerald Squires, David Blackwood, Reginald Shepherd, Helen Parsons Shepherd, Don Wright and Anne Meredith Barry.White Moda Jeans Vero Women Slim qRCwxptx
Provincial Museum[edit]
The Provincial Museum focuses on the natural and cultural history of Newfoundland and Labrador. Exhibits include dioramas of the animal and plant life of the Palazoo Combo Navy Kiba Black Of Blue Retail 2 SxTpa and bog, mounted bird displays, and the aboriginal people who lived in the area. Other displays include the city's British military history, the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary, and the culture and contributions of the area's Irish fishermen. Changing exhibits focus on other aspects of the province's history, natural history and culture.
The original Newfoundland Museum was located in a large Classical Revival brick and sandstone building at 285 Duckworth Street in Downtown St. John's.
The address of The Rooms is 9 Bonaventure Avenue, St. John's NL.

The Chicago Fire U16 and U18 U.S. Soccer Development Academy sides are good. Both sides concluded the 2011/12 regular season on Sunday at Indiana Fire Academy with the U16s taking a 2-2 draw and the U18s a 3-1 victory.
Both results helped keep the sides first in the Great Lakes Division with the U18s going 13-0-3 (18-2-3 overall) and the U-16s going 11-1-4 (15-3-5 overall) on the campaign.
With the finish, the U18s also remained the number one ranked team in the country while the U16s finished fifth in the nation -- both are the top ranked MLS Academy in their age group with the next being the LA Galaxy (#4 at U18 and #8 at U16).
Yesterday, the U.S. Soccer Federation announced the draw for the 2012 Developmental Academy playoffs, set to begin Monday, June 25 in Frisco, Texas. See the results below...
Group 7
Chicago Fire (Bridgeview, Ill.)
Solar Chelsea SC (Dallas, Texas)
Albertson SC (Great Neck, N.Y.)
Concorde Fire (Atlanta, Ga.)
Group 4
Chicago Fire (Bridgeview, Ill.)
Real Salt Lake AZ (Casa Grande, Ariz.)
Seattle Sounders FC (Tukwila, Wash.)
Clearwater Chargers (Clearwater, Fla.)
Only the top team from each group will advance to the Academy Finals week, set to be held in Houston, Texas from July 16-23.
Earlier Tuesday, Fire Academy Director Larry Sunderland took both sides to a mini-camp in South Bend, Ind. to prepare for next week's playoffs. Joining the teams in Indiana are first teamers and Academy eligible players Victor Pineda and Kellen Gulley.
Check Chicago-Fire.com Wednesday for an exclusive podcast interview with Sunderland about the team's progress heading into the postseason.

Tomorrow will begin the month of September, and yet another day well into the 90s. This is Maine, right? I'm sorry, I thought I was back in Florida. But enough sarcasm. At least cooler weather is on the way this weekend, and hopefully this will be the last stretch of temps in the 90s until next summer.
But for now, I opted to do a double today to get in the mileage and help break up the running to make it easier to beat the heat.
I was out the door around 5am and temps were in the lower 60s, which was very tolerable. I hit the trails in the woods out back, as my headlamp guided the way. The sun still showed no signs of rising, so it was very dark and I did manage to trip on a root and fall once, but not that bad.
Further into the woods, I heard a barred owl let out a single, long and loud hoot from a few tenths of a mile away. Not sure if it was directed at me, but it added to the Zen-like ambience of the early morning.
About halfway through the run, the sun began to rise, and increasingly lit the way as I headed back home to shower and have a few cups of coffee before work.
Ran 5.0 miles @ 9:09/mile pace.
Trails and fire roads.
Slightly hilly.
Lower 60s, clear skies.
Brooks Cascadia 3, shorts, short sleeved shirt, headlamp.
Things a bit hap-hazard in the afternoon, as the athletic director ordered practices be held at 6pm because of the heat wave. It was 95 degrees at the normal practice time of 2pm, so good call in my opinion.
The XC team was to run the trails adjacent to the school at their own paces and on their own reconnaissance, which worked out well for me as I was able to repeat a one mile loop around the school to check up on them and also get in my own workout.
Ran 5.0 miles @ 7:25/mile pace.
Paved roads and paved paths.
Mostly flat.
Mid-80s, sunny, humid.
Saucony Kinvara, shorts, short sleeved shirt.
Oh yeah, I looked at my monthly total for August. Today's two runs brought me up to 244.2 miles for the month. Not bad for me, and chocked full of quality workouts to boot.

Millie's good behavior and passion for adventure is the reason why she goes with Ross almost everywhere.
Millie (AKA: "The Weather Dog") is a Pembroke Welsh Corgi that was born in Oklahoma.
Ross Janssen's cousin convinced him that having a Corgi would be the best idea. After a little hesitation, he decided to make the journey to Oklahoma and pick up the last female in the group. Ross decided on the name Millie because his cousin had a dog many years ago (an Airedale) named Millie, and he liked the name.
Millie's good behavior and passion for adventure is the reason why she goes with Ross almost everywhere. She's been to the top of a mountain outside of Boulder, CO, been on a number of storm chasing adventures in western Kansas, and has even carried the rings down the aisle at a wedding. Millie travels to school talks with Ross and usually entertains the kids, while he's trying to teach them about weather.
You will commonly see Millie on KWCH in the evenings and usually on weekends hanging out in the Weather Center. She is definitely a big dog trapped inside of a small dog's body.

Two Men Staging Fake Rihanna Concerts Charged With Felonies
Two men are behind bars for allegedly raking in $2 million dollars by staging fake Rihanna concerts.
TMZ reports that Sylvester Vincent Carroll and Meceo McEaddy are being hit with two felony charges: grand larceny and scheming to defraud in the first degree. They're accused of posing as the pop star's managers and duping promoters into forking over dough to promote the concerts.
Other artist's such as Lady Gaga and Ke$ha were also used in the scheme, which started back in 2010.
According to the Manhattan D.A., Carroll and McEaddy traveled far and wide to pull off the scam — from Brazil and Mexico to even Taiwan.
What did they do with the money? The con men spent the funds on cars, hotel, jewelry and restaurants. Well, at least they enjoyed it while they had it because these two are likely going away for awhile.

Robinson Foundation Scholars display strong bond
One of the major efforts of the Jackie Robinson Foundation is the annual Scholars' Mentoring and Leadership Conference. All 160 of the students were in New York on Monday for the conference as well as the annual foundation dinner.
The students, from 33 different colleges spanning from New York to Los Angeles, came for developmental workshops, career exploration seminars and networking opportunities.
One of the major efforts of the Jackie Robinson Foundation is the annual Scholars' Mentoring and Leadership Conference. All 160 of the students were in New York on Monday for the conference as well as the annual foundation dinner.
The students, from 33 different colleges spanning from New York to Los Angeles, came for developmental workshops, career exploration seminars and networking opportunities.
On Monday afternoon, the scholars were in the MLB.com offices, taking a tour and giving some students their first experience in front of a teleprompter when they visited the studios to recite lines from Robinson's Hall of Fame speech as part of a video in his honor.
In 1997, under the direction of Commissioner Bud Selig, Robinson's No. 42 was retired across all of Major League Baseball in an unprecedented tribute.
The mood was light in the control room as each student took his turn.
"I just didn't want to mess up," said Janea Osby, a Human Biology and Society major at UCLA. "I always see people doing it. Just watching from behind the scenes, it looks like it's easy, but it's not as easy as it looks."
The focus on networking and career success is important to the students.
"It's a family that provides support both financially and emotionally," said Sennay Ghenbot, a freshman at the University of Pittsburgh.
It's Ghenbot's first year with the Foundation, but he said the networking opportunities he's already had have been substantial. Along with his fellow scholars, he learned more about his heritage through sponsored genealogical testing and got to relax with fellow scholars to an early screening of "42," a Warner Bros. film about the life of Robinson. The students also attend the Foundation's Annual Awards Dinner, a formal send-off at the end of the four-day conference, on Monday night.
"We've been here since 1973, and at this conference we have alumni and past scholars come back and talk to people here and they show what you want to be," Ghenbot said.
The foundation also offers each student a $7,500 renewable scholarship.
After submitting applications in the fall, 60 graduating high school students are selected yearly based on need and academic performance. Scholar Advisor Committee Chair Kendra Gaither said finances are just part of the program's larger benefits as students are then made a part of the Foundation's Mentoring and Leadership Development Curriculum.
She added that money can't be the only answer when trying to battle declining rates of minority retention and graduation in universities.
"Students, based on their career track or interests, are matched with a corporate sponsor whose business lines up with that scholar's interests," Gaither said. "It gives a great opportunity for the students to receive personal mentoring from sponsors and learn more about the business and apply their talent.
"The scholars have mentors from the alumni as well as from their graduate communities in their field. The three groups together try to help and support the growth of the whole person as they go through the four years of the program."
The Foundation has a 99 percent graduation rate.
Gaither said the Foundation's family-like atmosphere is a key part of its success. She credited founder Rachel Robinson, who just a year after losing a key member of her family, decided to extend that family to others.
"From very early on in the development of the Foundation, there were not only workshops, but 'rap sessions' and 'family sessions' where students could share in a non-judgmental and loving environment," Gaither said. "They could share the challenges that they were experiencing on campus and talk about great opportunities."
She would know. Gaither is not only an active member of the Foundation, but a product as well. The former scholar fits well for this year's conference theme -- legacy.
"I never cease to be inspired by the story of Jackie Robinson," Gaither said. "Not just in baseball, but in his life after baseball. I'm inspired by Mrs. Robinson and her commitment to this organization and to his honor. I'm inspired by the scholars; it's incredible, the number of activities they're pursuing and ways that they're investing in their communities. The alums that came before me, nurtured me and gave me the opportunity to nurture others. Every time I'm involved with the work they do, I'm inspired."
Gary Cotton is a reporter for MLB.com.

Maybe the Big 10 Should Join D3…Posted by rtmsf on November 6th, 2007
… since they can't seem to handle D2 teams at home.
Another UF is Coming For You, Buckeyes!!!
First Michigan St. lost to Grand Valley St. on Saturday. Tonight Ohio St. went down 70-68 at the hands of Findlay (OH). To be fair, Findlay is the #5 ranked team in the D2 preseason poll, and they were 29-2 last year. But still… Findlay? Guard Marcus Parker led the way for the Oilers with 18 pts, and said that MSU's loss inspired his team.
"I saw Grand Valley beat a Big Ten team (Michigan State)," Parker said, "and I felt we could come down here and do the same thing."
He was right. From the OSU side of things, the few that are paying attention to hoops this time of year are stressing that this was from a lack of effort, not a lack of talent. From the Ohio St. blog Eleven Warriors:
Thad Matta's squad simply didn't match Findlay's intensity, especially at the defensive end of the floor losing the rebounding battle 34-27 (13 offensive) while surrendering 10 threes. The lack of passion combined with another poor night at the stripe (11/17 64%) was more than enough to hand OSU their most embarassing defeat in the Thad Matta Era.
The good news is that freshman center Kosta Koufos led a second-half comeback with 20/7, but the other forward Othello Hunter laid a prodigious egg (0/1). Jamar Butler had a nice game with 22/3 asst, but the rest of the Buckeyes contributed very little. Looking at their lineup, we're just not sure where their offense is going to come from this year outside of Butler and Koufos. Please don't say Terwilliger.
To crib from Doug Gottlieb tonight, you think it might be time to consider replacing the ACC with the Great Lakes Conference in the ACC-B10 Challenge? You know, a league with some teams the Big 10 could bea… uh, nevermind.

I lost 4.5lbs this week and got Slimmer of the Week. This takes my total weight loss to 5 stone 10 lbs and got me my 5 1/2 stone award.
Just 4lbs needed for my 6 stone award. I'm going to give it my best shot this week.
So as you may know I blogged my food choices through my 7 days all inclusive at Sandos San Blas, Tenerife. On my holiday I gained 4lbs. I am proud to say it loud. I gained 4lbs! The reason I'm proud is because I worked hard on holiday for that gain. That might sound strange to say, but it's true! I owned that gain and I minimised it by being sensible. I'm a glass half full girl - I could have gained A LOT more than 4lbs if I hadn't carried on with my sensible choices. I chose Speed and Protein foods at every meal time, I chose diet non alcoholic drinks with the occasional tipple, I had a dessert everyday from the selection available, and lastly I estimated my healthy extras from the wide variety of breads and cheeses. One thing totally out of my control was the way the food was cooked. Every vegetable was cooked in oil, however I didn't let that prevent me making the right choices. I couldn't control the cooking, but I still have choice power. I still ate as true to my usual habits as possible. I could have SO easily have let the mentality...Read more
I had a 1lb gain this week. I'm super happy with that, as it's as close to a maintain as I can get. Small fluctuations in weight are part of maintaining and are to be expected. Now I'm almost at my new target I feel much more accepting of minor fluctuations than I was at my old target. This just reaffirms that I'm right to be aiming for the reduced target. I have 4lbs to lose to get to my new target and my goal is to try to achieve it by 5th December (the Slimming World Christmas Party). I have currently lost 8 stone 10 lbs. 11lbs under my original target.Read more
I lost 2lbs this week. 12 lbs below target! My total weight loss is 8 Stone 11 lbs - almost half my body weight! I find that very hard to digest, considering the most common thing I'm told is that there isn't any sign of me ever being that much larger. Most people now refer to me as tiny! Not words that I've heard often! I'm just a few lbs from where I think I want to set my new target, so as usual I'll see what the week brings. I'm not in weight loss mode or worrying about what I'll lose, if I lose I'm happy, but I'd equally be happy with whatever happens because enjoying life comes first; if I have an event or celebration then I'll flex my syns and go with it. That's what being at target is all about!Read more

IRVING – Tragedy has struck one of the Dallas Cowboys' top defensive players.
All-Pro nose tackle Jay Ratliff will miss practice Wednesday and Thursday to attend the funeral of his grandparents, who died last week in a house fire in Hahira, Ga.
No word yet from the Cowboys as to whether Ratliff will play in Sunday's game at Houston.
According to published reports, Arletha Ratliff, 74, died while attempting to save her disabled 84-year-old husband, Willie, on Sept. 15.
ESPNDallas.com reported Jay Ratliff was aware of the deaths when he played in Sunday's 27-20 loss to Chicago. The two-time Pro Bowler recorded two tackles.
Willie Ratliff, a double amputee, was in a hospital bed when an early evening fire hit the home.
Intense smoke and heat prevented firefighters from getting inside the house.
"It just took awhile to get in and locate them, and by that time they passed away," Hahira Fire Chief Dwight Bennett told WALB-TV.
Lowndes County coroner told the Valdosta (Ga.) Daily Times that Hahira Police Chief Terry David tried to lift Willie Ratliff out of his bed, but "the fire was too intense."
An electrical shortage apparently caused the fire, according to authorities.

How might crop rotation be used to manage the burgeoning glyphosate-resistant pigweed problem in the Mid-South?
"In Mississippi, there are currently 11 counties that we know have resistant pigweeds," said Jason Bond at the recent Pigposium forum held in Forrest City, Ark. Bond, an associate professor of weed science at Mississippi State University, said the "number is sure to go up as we continue the screening programs this fall and winter. Ten of the 11 counties are located in the Delta area of the state — we consider that the northwest (quarter) of the state."
All of the counties that border the Mississippi River are infested with glyphosate-resistant pigweed.
"I think we have two real opportunities for managing pigweeds in the Delta. In Mississippi, we have really good yield potential with rice, as does Arkansas. But nearly all the counties on the Mississippi side of the Delta have excellent yield potential with corn.
"So I want to focus on those crops — corn and rice — and how to manage populations of pigweeds in those crops."
To manage a resistant weed population, "first, you must break a continuous cycle of crop-weed association. A lot of times, an environment favorable for a particular crop is also favorable for a certain weed."
Bond referenced barnyardgrass and rice — "very similar plant types, both favor aquatic environments. Therefore, barnyardgrass proliferates in a rice crop.
"Personally, I think Palmer pigweed and cotton are closely associated. They thrive in similar environments. They tend to have similar soil temperature requirements for germination. Pigweeds seem to begin germinating about the time we plant cotton in the spring."
Second, growers should "rotate crops with contrasting growth and cultural requirements. For instance, rotate a row-crop with a drill-seeded crop. … Drill-seeding soybeans (can be) a way to supplement your Palmer pigweed control program."
Narrower rows canopy quicker, shade out the ground and prevent additional pigweeds from germinating after canopy closure.
"Third — and what I'll spend most of my time talking about — is rotating weed management tools. Obviously, the big component of this is rotating herbicide chemistries. But you can also manipulate cultural tools such as flooding or planting dates."
Many weed specialists advocate rotating herbicide chemistries or modes of action. However, Bond cautioned that "just because you're rotating a crop doesn't automatically mean you're rotating herbicide chemistries. For instance, you have access to ALS inhibitors in all four major Delta crops. The same is true for the PPOase inhibitors. So, you must be conscious not only of the crop you're growing but also the herbicide chemistry being used."
Bond said the two to focus on are the synthetic auxins (2,4-D, dicamba, Grandstand in rice) and the HPPD inhibitors (currently used solely in corn, including Callisto and Laudis). "You'll notice we don't have herbicides in either of these families available for in-crop use in cotton or soybeans."
At least on the Mississippi side of the Delta, "corn is an excellent rotation crop for either soybeans or cotton. We have chemistry to control pigweeds in corn — particularly in the HPPDs and synthetic auxins.
"And you can use planting date for corn to avoid pigweeds. Start planting early, before the pigweeds begin emerging. But the big thing with corn is avoiding seed production after harvest. That's a major aspect of managing pigweed populations in corn."
A trial done last summer looked at single herbicide applications on V-4 corn. There were no tank-mixes with glyphosate or atrazine.
"The HPPDs, Laudis and Callisto, were right near the top providing 85 to 90 percent (control). The next group, synthetic auxins, included Yukon and Status, both pre-mixes that contain dicamba.
"Near the bottom was Cadet, a PPOase inhibitor, applied to a bit larger weed. Cadet is a contact herbicide and coverage wasn't quite good enough to gain adequate control."
Resolve Q is an ALS inhibitor. "Fifty to 60 percent of the pigweeds that have gone through the screening programs at Stoneville are ALS-resistant. And I'd say 90 percent of the pigweeds in my fields at the research station in Stoneville are ALS-resistant. So, Resolve isn't really a good option there."
One unknown that could impact pigweed control: the future of atrazine.
"If we lose atrazine, we'll need to get a group together next year to talk about managing pigweeds in corn. Without glyphosate or atrazine, pigweed management in corn becomes complicated very quickly."
Another study considered three corn planting dates: March 15, April 5, and April 21. "For my purposes, those roughly simulated early-, mid- and late-planting dates. They probably should have been about 10 days earlier to be 'real world.' But that's what the weather allowed us to do in 2010."
By planting early, "we were able to delay the herbicide application to V-4. Basically, that's as late as we could go with the growth stage restriction for atrazine. And that was the best corn we cut — over 200 bushels.
"When we delayed planting to the mid-date, the best yield was produced with a pre-emergence application of a residual herbicide."
Bond and colleagues "introduced the residual herbicide into the system when it was needed most: when the pigweeds were emerging. You can supplement a control program by using a combination of the residual herbicide and planting date."
This year, Mississippi's harvest was very early. "Particularly in corn — and also in early-planted soybeans — it wasn't uncommon to see combines running in the last week of July. For sure, most years, we get ramped up with harvest the first couple of weeks in August."
Depending on the weather between early August and mid-November, "you can have several months of good growing conditions. Pigweed emerging after harvest can grow to maturity and produce seed that will cause problems in following years.
"Every effort you make to grow corn with the intent of managing resistant pigweeds can go right out the window after harvest while you've moved on to (harvesting other crops) in the fall. Once you harvest, don't forget the fields need additional attention."
Bond tried to address that this year, although the effort began late. Bond and Daniel Stephenson, with the LSU AgCenter in Alexandria, La., evaluated "some different programs after harvest: two non-selective applications spaced about three weeks apart with the first two weeks after harvest; flail mow and, about three weeks later, come back with a non-selective herbicide; or, disk the field a couple of weeks after harvest and then come back with a spray three weeks later.
"It didn't rain at my house from the first of August until (early November). So, in 2010, it didn't really matter what program we used. Because it was so dry in the fall, we were able to reduce pigweed seed production with all three programs."
But in 2009, "we got most of our corn out and the rains set in during September. That didn't allow us (any control measures) for five or six weeks and led to some real problems with pigweed seed production after harvest."
In Mississippi, 90-plus percent of rice is grown in rotation with soybeans.
"We have some real opportunities in rice to manage pigweeds. My favorite herbicide combination is propanil plus Grandstand. But you also have the flood — and you can't beat a flood for managing Palmer pigweed" as it is native to an arid climate.
However, Bond cautioned about one big drawback for managing pigweed populations in rice: preventing seed production on levees. Pigweeds may not survive a flood but they can thrive on a levee throughout the summer.
How can Palmer amaranth control work with a general rice weed control program targeting grass and broadleaf weeds?
"SuperWham plus Grandstand applied at a mid-post timing (three- to four-leaf rice) provided 98 percent control."
Another option is Broadhead, a pre-mix of quinclorac plus Aim. "Broadhead, in the limited experience I've had with it, has done a very good job on very small pigweeds. It has done a poor job on larger pigweeds because one of its components — the one doing the major effort to control pigweeds — is Aim. Aim is a contact herbicide that needs excellent coverage and, obviously, works better on smaller weeds."
Because of the ALS-resistant pigweeds in fields around Stoneville, "we only get around 65 percent control with Aim plus Permit. But if we can injure those plants and then get water on them within 10 days or two weeks, it seems that even though they don't die from the herbicide application they'll melt down and die quicker if they were at least injured."
Bonds said it's too common for growers to "wait for the pre-flood timing to treat most broadleaf weeds in rice. At that point, the weeds are just too big. Even though the flood will control the pigweed you have endured four or five weeks of competition. If the pigweed population is thick enough, you can incur some real yield losses before the field is flooded."
The biggest problem spot with rice and pigweeds is the levees.
"If you leave a pigweed on a levee and it makes seed, it's just like allowing Palmer pigweed to go to seed after corn harvest. (Almost) every effort you've made to manage that population will go out the window. Because once you've swiped that levee down (in preparation) for next year's soybeans, you'll do a good job of evenly spreading those pigweed seeds from the levee across the field."
Data from work done by Jason Norsworthy, weed scientist with the University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture, showed that "no herbicide or combination does an excellent job of controlling pigweed on levees. Plants are probably 18, 24, or even 30 inches tall at time of application because we normally spray levees later in the season.
"Propanil and 2,4-D was the best treatment they had in (the test). In my opinion, the major goal of pigweed control on levees is preventing seed production. That's particularly true if you haven't seeded the levees to supplement your per-acre grain yield. Do what you must to keep it from making seed."
There are other benefits of crop rotation including breaking disease, insect and nematode cycles and improving soil conditions. But from a weed control standpoint, "if the appropriate herbicides are chosen and applied correctly, then rotation can be a big tool we can use to manage pigweed populations.
"Again, rotate herbicide chemistries and exploit cultural tactics available in (each) rotational crop. If you're going to grow a rotational crop with an eye towards managing resistant pigweeds, then you must target 100 percent control."
Italian ryegrass
Farmers and consultants, mark your calendars. Bond announced an event at the Delta Research and Extension Center in Stoneville on March 10.
"We'll have a field day revolving totally around glyphosate-resistant Italian ryegrass. We have a bad pigweed problem in Mississippi. But we also have a severe problem with resistant Italian ryegrass. We hope to have some of the same folks involved" that worked the Pigposium.

Tim Padgett, WLRN
It's hard to tell what's most striking these days: Yoani Sánchez's heroism or America's hypocrisy.
Last week, when communist authorities tried to block Sánchez's new digital newspaper, 14ymedio, Florida Senator Marco Rubio called her "one of Cuba's most courageous" dissidents. And rightly so.
But he also called the internationally acclaimed blogger "an aspiring Cuban media entrepreneur." And that's where the inconsistency starts...
