Thank you, Marauder by Midnight, for the banner 3rd and last story in the 'Life in Love' series Sequal to 'Possibilities' "This is what we have been waiting for. This was the formidable fight. This was something that I wasn't sure we were even going to win. Each pair of daunting red eyes stared back at me, filled with hope that they would win. Hoping, just like us, that they would live."

"No!" Edward and I yelled together.
"I'm afraid we have no other choice. You must either join, or…" my eyes were wide with fright as I held Edward's hand. It was dark, maybe midnight in volterra, and Edward and I were back in that same, horrific, room.
"Die." Aro finished his warning.
"No." I whispered. I backed away slowly, my head shaking back and forth, my mind becoming numb with paralysis, my mouth repeating the same word, "no", as if saying it enough will make it so.
The Volturi members all gave a wide grin, showing their white glistening teeth, all of them razor sharp and coated with venom.
"We don't give third chances." Alec reminded.
"Please, just once. We did what we promised!" I cried.
"We offered you the option of joining us, you declined it, and so there is only one more option." Caius snarled, impatient.
"No!" I whispered again, horrified.
"You know the other option." Marcus finished. I winced as I heard Edward growl-he was going to get hurt. The odds of a fight were great, but not in our favor .
"Please, no." I begged as I dropped to my knees; somehow my legs gave out, preventing me from standing upright. I looked down at them, starting to panic. I couldn't move a single thing! Edward took a position in front of me to try and defend me, we were surrounded.
But then I realized I was a vampire too, and I could do what Edward could do-fight for my life and his.
"No, Edward!" I screamed as Jane pounced on him. I knocked him out of the way so that Jane hit me instead. Somehow I was able to break free of whatever was holding me to the ground. Perhaps it was my strong willingness that did it, I didn't know. Right now I was concentrating on the vampire who was on me.
I screamed as she bit me, it stung. I was a new born and strong, so I easily got her off of me and threw her across the room as hard as I could. I was inexperienced and they tried to take advantage of that. Just as I threw two others off of me (with six new stinging vampire bites and now ripped up clothes) I looked to Edward frantically. How were we supposed to do this?
"EDWARD!!" I screamed to him. He was fighting way too many Volturi guards at once. I tried to get to his side, but something was holding me back. I fought against it, but my legs were locked in place. Not again! I looked down to my legs; nothing was there, just as last time. But yet again, I couldn't move. I couldn't run fast enough to save him, I couldn't run at all.
But all of a sudden Edward's growl stopped. I anxiously looked to my right, away from my legs, and saw Edward, on the ground. His head and arms were limp, and torn.
"Noooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" my piercing scream rang over the growls. Then bright light of the fire they had made on Edward blazed into my eyes as I kept on screaming.
"Bella, BELLA!" Edward said as he shook me. I had continued to scream, even with my eyes now open. Then I stopped, now aware of where I was.
"Edward…but you!…and..." I then stupidly realized I was day dreaming. It seemed to affect me like a regular dream (or in this case nightmare) I had had when I was human, I just didn't sleep now. I was panting and shaking. That last image of Edward burning up, on fire, played over in my head.
"Love, you were day dreaming. And I am sure whatever happened won't in reality." He assured me as he pulled me into his arms. He looked a bit worried and confused as he kissed my forehead. I didn't blame him. Maybe there really was something wrong with my brain. I sighed, looking around. We were still sitting on the sofa watching TV with Emmett and Alice.
Alice looked at me with an expression of worry, but Emmett was just amused.
"Yeah, it was silly. Never mind it." I whispered, my hands still trembling, as I turned my head back to the TV but the truth was it wasn't exactly silly, or forgettable. I have been having the same dream for weeks now, and it wouldn't exactly go away.
I calmed myself and continued to watch T.V in Tanya's house. Tanya, Kate, Irina, Carmen and Eleazar disagreed with the idea of us moving out; they said it was much less boring when we were there. There was no need to spend all of that unneeded money (though money wasn't an issue) to buy a new house for the Cullen clan when we could just stay here. I was fine with that decision.
Edward and I had stayed on the island in Hawaii for a month. I thought it was the longest honeymoon in the world until Edward informed me of the last time Emmett and Rosalie had their honey moon-it had lasted half a year.
But a month was perfectly alright with me-I was content with it. But I missed the rest of my new family, even Alice's jabbering of clothes. That one surprised me just a little bit.
Life was perfect on the island. Nobody was there to harm us, or to even think about harming us. It was peaceful, and it was what Edward and I needed the most. I felt like we were a lot closer now, Edward and I. I think perhaps the family noticed too, once we got back. There was no more bickering between us, even if there was only a little before. We both felt a little more connected to each other.
But that thought still couldn't keep my mind off of other things, for instance the dream. I knew the Volturi didn't need to show, and I knew we wouldn't die, hopefully.. But still, it was too vivid to just forget, and having it every day was just not normal. I'll probably go to talk to Alice about it, I decided. But she would probably know what I would be talking about anyways, since it looked as though she just saw it in one of her visions.
She nodded to me, as if to answer my unasked question and I gave her a small smile. Edward seemed a little worried about me, but I smiled looking up to him and shrugged. My eyes said it was nothing to worry about and Edward's eyes showed that he understood. I moved closer to Edward and hid my face from sight, pressing my face against his chest so that he could not see what else my eyes said.
I also missed Jake, surprisingly enough. The last time I had seen him was when we were fighting, after my wedding. We were now still in Alaska for a little more than a month, and Jake probably forgot all about me. That was good; I didn't want him to get hurt at all from my absent presence. It was better this way.
I was wrong though, the more I thought about it the more I wanted to go back down to La Push and see him. But the treaty was off; they could rip me to pieces if they wanted to. But why would Jake want to do that? I didn't want anyone to answer my own question…..
My selfishness came back to me; I wanted to see him, whether or not he was willing to see me back, or if it hurt him. I needed to see him. I continued to think about the idea until a huge problem occurred and sent a tiff through my pondering thoughts.
If I did go down there I would have to take a car-which car?
Edward hadn't gotten me one yet, so if I had to chose, the Volvo would be my best bet. I could drive it down while they were hunting tomorrow; I had already hunted today. That's what I would do. I was forgetting about the person next to me, though. Alice could see it if she had a vision, because my future would be lost while I was with werewolves. She could see the plan, and then Edward would see it. I would have to keep on changing it, that's the only way to slip through her power. I tried focusing on different plans, all of which didn't include Jacob. I thought about going to the mall (ha-ha-very likely), going with Carmen to go walk through the forest (she was a great friend), running, camping with Edward, driving around, getting a new car (she might expect something from that if she didn't from the mall), and even unpacking (there was still a box full of things I was neglecting to open from Charlie's house).
When the movie ended on T.V I decided I was going to go take another run (I loved it more than Edward did), just to try and clear this mess out of my mind.
"Where are you going, Bella?" Edward asked me as I gently untangled myself from his arms.
"I think for a run, just to clear my mind." I smiled and ran to the door before he could ask to go with me. I had to go by myself; it was the only way I could even think attempt to calm myself this time.
In the house I could hear Alice and Edward talking. My hearing was greatly improved, and it had its advantages for eavesdropping.
"What was that all about?" Edward muttered.
"She said 'to clear her head'; she's got a bunch of plans up there that she is changing—you saw the flickers in my mind. First it was to go shopping, then walking with Carmen, then camping up in the mountains, then taking a drive somewhere, and that's only a third of it-Edward it won't stop." I heard Alice say, almost complain.
"Interesting." Edward muttered again.
"Not really, I have a feeling she is hiding something from us, especially me. She's changing her future so that I don't know what she is really going to do. She is up to something that she knows you won't approve of." I heard Alice say logically.
"What could she possibly do?" Edward asked Alice.
"I don't know." She admitted.
"It wouldn't be going back to Forks, would it?" Edward guessed.
"I don't know, it wouldn't be anything in that area as far as I see, it's not in her head-could that be for a reason though?" Alice asked herself. It wasn't in Forks, but in that area. I bit my lip as I ran- she was getting close.
"I don't know…possibly. We will just have to wait and see what she is up to. I don't like it though." Edward said.
My plan was working, although I would get bombarded with questions later on. I was right to get out of there while I did.
I decided to just run around inside the forest surrounding us. All of the trees covered in little icicles, like frozen rain drops, the ground covered in clean white snow. It was truly beautiful. And that helped clear my head.
After an hour or so I heard Edward come after me. So I slowed down and decided to sit on a rock. I leaned my head against a tree.
5, 4, 3, 2, 1- "Bella?" I heard Edward call. He was now right next to me.
"Hi." I smiled up to him.
"Hello." He said as he sat down next to me, then he put his arm around me. He looked as though he was going to ask me a question. But before he could, I leaned in and kissed him.
One of my most favorite things to do was to kiss Edward, because now that I was no longer a human, I didn't have to hold back anymore.
I blushed as he kissed me back, his arms around me, his hand running through my hair. And without even realizing it, my plan had worked. He forgot about his questions for the moment.
But then he pulled back and picked me up in his arms, "What was that for?" he smiled.
"Because I love you."I answered. It was true, that was part of the reason, but it was about the questions too. I resisted a flinch-It was too sneaky, even for me.
"I love you too." He said. "I always will, no matter what crazy plan you're up to."
I gulped and forced a smile. "I'll hold you to that, you know." I whispered; he looked down at me disapprovingly before kissing me again.
"Bella, are you sure you're not going to come with us? We are going up to the mountains." Edward asked me for the millionth time. All of the Cullen's were going, even Tanya's family. It was perfect.
"Positive. I'll just hang out here. I still have a little unpacking left anyways." I said. I grabbed his jacket and gave it to him. I kissed him on the cheek and pushed him out the door with the family. It almost reminded me of a 50's household, the wife in polka dots wishing her husband luck at his job as he rushed off.
"Bye everyone! Have uh…. fun!" I laughed, "Emmett, tackle a grizzly for me, would you?" I joked, as he chuckled. "Sure thing." He responded.
"Bye." The rest said back to me and took off; Edward gave one last look of disappointment and worry, and something else I didn't quite see in time, and then ran after them as I waved.
It was hard work having to change my mind all the time, and I had to do it for a while. Now I just had to wait for fifteen minutes or so and they would get far away enough that by the time Alice see's my plan, I will be gone. I plopped myself down on the couch, flipping through the channels on TV.
After it was around fifteen minutes or so of me sitting there, I went upstairs, continuing to make plans like go to the mall or go for a run. Then I grabbed my jacket and shoes.
I picked up my sunglasses from the table by the couch downstairs and sat down to write a note.
Don't get mad, please!!!!
That should be enough for him to see, enough to not know where I was. He will get mad though, it was unavoidable.
I took Edward's keys, locked the door, and ran to the garage in the back, revealing my plan for the probably watching Alice.
I got in Edward's Volvo and started it up. I backed out, and drove it down the 'road'.
I really surprised myself when I drove now; it was faster than even Edward would go.
I didn't stop the whole way there. What would normally take days, only took me six hours. As I drove through Forks, I couldn't help but go past Charlie's house and stop there. I was a little on edge though-not only could neighbors be watching but Edward could be following. I wouldn't feel completely sure I fully executed my plan until I was in La Push.
I parked the car in the driveway that I had parked in so many times before, and got out to go look around, to see how much it changed, despite my growing uneasiness. When I got inside, it was exactly the same. The dishes weren't washed though, and there was hardly any food in the kitchen. Just to do him a favor, I cleaned all the dishes and put than back in the right place.
As I went upstairs, my room was the same too. It was empty, but still the same. I ran my hand over my desk and bed. So many memories, but I had to get out of here. I was on the verge of crying and breaking down at any moment.
With one last look I backed out of the drive way and made my way to La Push, trying to breath evenly.
I stopped at the divider line, or I guess where it used to be, and then waited. I got out of the car as I heard someone from the pack react to my scent.
And then a brown wolf came into view. When I was just about to talk, just to explain myself, I felt the gray wolf on top of me. He knocked me backwards, fifteen feet away from where I was standing.
"What the-" I screamed as I avoided the wolf's teeth. The smell was so bad I felt as though I wanted to puke.
"Do you have any idea-" I was cut off, I needed to focus more on getting what looked like Jared off of me. I gasped as I quickly moved my head out of his way-I was so close to getting bitten.
"Fine." I managed to say as I kicked the wolf off of me, making him land thirty feet away. He asked for it.
He growled at me getting up, "Look, all I wanted to do was see Jacob, could you pass the message along?" I asked him. He now realized who I was.
He growled again, but then reluctantly nodded. The stench was still unbearable, I wrinkled my nose. I stood up, brushing the dirt and leaves off of me. I smoothed my hair and readjusted my shirt.
Just then another wolf came into view; it was a reddish brown color. Jake. I swallowed hard.
He stopped some ways away to phase back and I looked down at my feet, sunglasses over my red eyes, as he walked up.
"Bella?" he asked, his voice barely above a whisper-as if he couldn't believe it was me.
I looked up at him with a small smile,
"Hey Jake."

Anthemgroup needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 184 designs submitted by 62 freelance designers.
Anthem Mortgage Group
We are a mortgage company that is rebranding ourselves to focus on our true story and values. We treat our community with the gift of financial awareness the banks wont give them. We empower our clients and create long term partnerships consistantly earning their loyalty with value added advice and information. Our clients are our community. We are not for everyone some home buyers want to do exactly what their grandparents did; but most want a better, smarter choices. We are that choice. We are a family of mortgage experts joined in the mutual crusade for leading this industry with the highest level of value.
Home buyers. They are generally young professionals and entrapneurs. Early adopters and those willing to change to improve their positions. Essentially clients that want a smarter way of borrowing money (smarter than using the bank). We are the bank alternative. We are going after those who want total financial awareness. We want those who will listen to great advice and understand they will be further ahead working with us vs the bank. Like apple vs PC. We are like broker vs bank. We work for you not the bank. We are the new better way of buying homes.
Banks are very corporate, cold, greedy and from a old industrial age way of doing business. Your bank rep is working for the man they are not loyal to you. They sit accross the table and negotiate with you. I say be loyal to yourself not the bank.
We are an open book, empowering our clients, creating loyalty by showing them the tricks the banks use to profit from them, and then showing them the strategies to win at the money game. We want to look more organic. We work for you. We sit with you at the table on your side on your team.
Looking for a logo and corporate image.
The logo can have the following variations
1)Anthem or include or
2)Anthem Mortgage or
3)Anthem Mortgage Group.
I would like it to be transferable to cards, signs, shirts, webesites.
Essentially our corporate image.
This is a complete facelift from our old corporation. The company is older and the brand does not represent the great brokers that work here and the value we add to our community. The next generation that is here is very tech savy, vibrant and working with a younger smarter less traditional audience. We need a brand that shows this in a unique way.

I will upload my picture. Unfortunately I only have one to work with right now.
It is not necessary to use it if it does not go with your design.

I've been updating this post with new images and details of the Aether rifle. I've been down a rabbit hole lately with several projects. Even so, I've been able to work on bringing Lacette's Aether Rifle design to life as a 3D rendering. It's been so much fun doing this because once you can move around something and really see it, ideas and opportunities to evolve the design and add to the idea just start exploding. Now it's a proper assassin's rifle!
It isn't done yet but its far enough along to share with you. There's more details to come yet on the gun itself as well as the ammunition and its box for storing the life force of the victims. I'm also designing a tripod for those really long distance shots where the fold out monopod just isn't enough. There's more adjustments to come on the Aether scope but for now, I can show it both turned on and off.
In modeling this, I didn't want to take the approach of just making lots of gears and bits and then free form placing them about to "kit bash" a design together. That's a valid way to work but for the designs in Frahnknshtyne, I wanted everything to have that strongly grounded sense of visually being "purpose made." There's an industrial integrity liberally mixed with a sense of victorian exquisite handcraft that is important to me. Every knob, hold down, ferule and finding is custom designed on this rifle. I'm even considering doing a rapid prototype of it to see what it would look like as a nice 24 inch long model.
Anybody out there up for making a full sized rifle? :-)
Hope you enjoy a bit of gear from the world of Frahnknshtyne. Always good to feed ones own addiction to Steampunk tasties and share with others who like the same.
Cheers, Kevin

The Onion Loop provides an excellent sampling of the high country above Onion Valley in a complete loop with minimal repetition. The route includes excellent views throughout, fun scrambling, several alpine lakes and the three primary summits that reside along the Sierra Crest in the region: Dragon Peak, Mount Gould and University Peak. Onion Valley and Kearsarge Pass are a major gateway to the John Muir Wilderness and Kings Canyon National Park so the main trail up to the pass and adjacent lakes are quite popular and somewhat crowded. However, this route eschews the main trail for all but a mile and entails a considerable amount of scrambling and off-trail travel with grand vistas and spectacular scenery. GPS route here.
The first part of the route ascends the steep trail to the Golden Trout Lakes where Dragon Peak, the first summit objective, towers above the pristine alpine lakes. Dragon Peak is an outsanding summit with a fun class 3 scramble. In particular, the final summit block includes some exposure and a traverse across a narrow ledge. The views from Dragon Peak are stellar and include the deep blue Dragon Lake immediately below and the entire Rae Lakes Basin. Mount Clarence King and Mount Cotter show there impressive east faces and to the south the view includes layers upon layers of peaks including Mount Rixford, the Kings-Kern Divide and the Great Western Divide. It's a fabulous spot and the author's favorite summit of the three on this loop; well worth enjoying the summit perch! After descending Dragon Peak, the traverse to Mount Gould goes as entirely class 2 by staying on the west side of the crest or class 3 if one chooses to stay on the crest proper. Mount Gould is a large massif with a broad plateau. The actual summit (by a few feet) is on the SE side of the massif but there is another high point on the northwest end of the plateau that is worthy of the extra effort for a grand vista of the Rae Lakes basin and down the south fork Woods Creek drainage. This subsidiary summit on the NW end of the plateau contains some measuring equipment and transmitters which I would rather not be there, but it doesn't distract too much from the amazing vista. While the NW summit of Gould has the best view looking north, the SE (actual) summit has the best view looking south including the Kearsage Pinnacles and Lakes, Kings-Kern Divide and Great Western Divide. The actual summit of Gould is a fairly small pinnacle with a few class 3 moves, most easily done when approaching from the west. The author's favorite view from this perch was East Vidette with its classic triangular shape rising above the Kearsarge Pinnacles with Deerhorn Mountain and the Great Western Divide forming the background (pictured in the black & white photo above). From Mount Gould traverse a couple ribs to a broad sandy slope above Kearsarge Pass where the sand enables a remarkably efficient plunge step down to the pass. From Kearsarge Pass, the next objective is the north face of University Peak. Descend a short distance on the Kearsarge Pass trail to a bench above Heart Lake and then take a use path to the lake. From Heart Lake, traverse cross country over some talus and alp pine slopes to beautiful Bench Lake. Aptly-named Bench Lake sits at the foot of University Peak in a lovely setting of granite and pines. From Bench Lake, the most efficient route to University Peak's north face is to take the solid slabs starting on the east side of Bench Lake. The slabs transition to more talus and large block as one ascends. One can keep most of the ascent at class 2 or opt to tackle some class 3 to keep things as direct as possible. Near the top the terrain grows steeper but the climbing is still largely class 3 with some easy class 3. The final traverse to the summit is on a surprisingly broad ledge on the north side of the ridge with a few more scramble moves near the top. Overall, it seems the north face of University Peak gets a reputation as a harder scramble than it actually is. Most of the route is a class 2 slog and the scramble portions have little exposure. The views from the route overlooking the chain of lakes between Kearsarge Pass and Onion Valley is fantastic. Moreover, the view from the summit into Center Basin, Forester Pass and Mount Stanford are excellent. From the summit of University Peak traverse sandy slopes on the west side of the ridge to either University Pass or a shortcut chute north of University Pass. Here is where the route becomes quite tedious with a lot of boulder hoping that is unavoidable in the glacial moraine area. As one travels down to Robinson Lake, there is still quite a bit of talus, but also sections of easier terrain, and the last few hundred feet down to Robinson Lake are on slabs and pine forest. From Robinson Lake it's a fairly short trip down the trail back to Onion Valley.

Google Announces Stock Split, Touts Google+ as 'Social Spine'
During an earnings call that also included the announcement of a stock split, Google chief Larry Page today touted Google+ as the company's "social spine" that helps tie together the search giant's various products.
"Once you're logged in, you're just using one Google, not a series of disconnected products," Page said.
Oddly, Page said he wanted to be specific about Google+ uptake, but then said only that 170 million people have "upgraded" to the social network without really explaining what that meant. During a January earnings call, Page said specifically that Google+ had 90 million users.
Since taking over as CEO for the second time last year, Page said he has also focused on "creating a simpler and more intuitive experience across Google." Technology should do the heavy lifting, "so users can get on with what makes them happiest life."
He pointed to Chrome for Android as an example of this simplicity, as well as Google Play.
When asked about tablets, Page said Google was "very excited" about the form factor. He alluded to the "strong competition" from Apple's iPad, but said there has been "a lot of success on lower-priced tablets that run Android," like the Kindle Fire. "We definitely believe there's going to be a lot of success at the lower end of the market and it's definitly an area that we think is important and we're quite focused on," Page said.
On the financial front, Google reported revenue of $10.65 billion for the quarter, up 24 percent from the same time period last year, and up slightly from $10.58 billion from the last quarter. Profit landed at $3.39 billion, up from $2.3 billion last year and $2.71 billion last quarter.
Google also announced plans for a stock dividend that "will have the basic effect of a two-for-one stock split."
That is "something many of our investors have long asked us for," Page and co-founder Sergey Brin wrote in a founders letter. "These non-voting shares will be available for corporate uses, like equity-based employee compensation, that might otherwise dilute our governance structure."
They acknowledged that the move might not be popular, but said "having the flexibility to use stock without diluting our structure will help ensure we are set up for success for decades to come."
Page and Brin denied that the move was for any other reason. "We don't have an unusually big acquisition planned, in case you were wondering," they wrote.

ATB: Worst UK Loss in 18 YearsPosted by rtmsf on November 8th, 2007
Upset of the Year? We had a lot to say already on the UK upset at the hands of Rick Scruggs' Gardner-Webb squad, but we didn't really discuss the numbers behind an upset of this magnitude. Obviously, not much went well for the Cats – they shot a tepid 36% while allowing 53% (god only knows the last time an opponent shot that well at Rupp Arena) and they were outrebounded by eight. The dearth of any noticeable inside game aside from Patrick Patterson (12/12) is obvious – one night after Mark Coury pulled a double-double, he followed it up with 2/4. The two "stars" of this team, Ramel Bradley and Joe Crawford, combined for 6-21 shooting and it appears at first blush that UK will only go as far as the offense of these two (+ PP) will take them. Which means… probably not very far. The one other bright spot for the Cats was freshman Alex Legion, who came off the bench for 13 pts. Gardner-Webb has a lot to be proud of, and they can ride a win like this to far greater heights than expected in the Atlantic Sun. With four starters in double figures, great shot selection and patience with the ball, they very well may be a team to watch this season in that league.
Connecticut 69, Morgan St. 65. Before the Gardner-Webb upset, we were all set to discuss how overrated UConn was again this year, and how excited we were to
see read about the big intra-sectional matchup tomorrow night between the Huskies and Holy Cross. Oh wait, Jim Calhoun don't play like that. No offense to Todd Bozeman's Morgan St. squad, but we'll just have to settle for UConn being overrated. What's not to like? Well, for starters, the Huskies are having trouble shooting the ball again, going a mere 3-15 from behind the arc. And while the nation's #1 defensive fg% team last year held MSU to 35% shooting, they might want to concentrate a little more on stopping the long shots (11-22 from downtown). Jeff Adrien (12/10/7 blks) and Jerome Dyson (20/2) carried the Huskies, but 7'3 Hasheem Thabeet (3/6/2 blks) continues to underwhelm us. It seems as if UConn has a long way to go if they want to get back to the NCAA Tournament this year.

Chemistry Demonstration ShowsActivity by Wayne Lippa | added on Oct 17, 2011 | Canada
Sponsor(s): University of Lethbridge Faculty of Arts and Science, University of Lethbridge Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry
A variety of chemical demonstrations are performed at schools in the Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada area. These demonstrations highlight several general chemical principles to encourage interest in chemistry of the students at the schools.
This will be a chemistry demonstration show performed at Saipoyi Community School in Standoff, Alberta on Wednesday, October 19 2011 at 2:00 pm. A demonstration like this one will provide the students with an opportunity to "see" chemistry as opposed to just reading about it. Performing these demonstrations for elementary and secondary students might get them thinking about attending the University of Lethbridge after high school, and it might excite them about pursuing a career in the sciences. For elementary students, the demonstrations just plain excite them. The demonstrations are excellent public relations for the University of Lethbridge and the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry. Also, helping the teachers in this manner strengthens ties between the University and the schools in the surrounding area.

"We try to help educate people about herbs. There's a lot of bad information out there because people don't have the knowledge anymore. It's something our forefathers had much more of, and it's something we've lost," said Andrew Celwyn, 43, co-owner of The Herbiary at 7721 Germantown Ave., in a conversation with this reporter last week.
People should consider "complementary" (his word) medicines like herbs for several reasons, explained Celwyn. First, safety. Herbs have been used for thousands of years in every civilization on the planet, and they do not harm your liver the way that many drugs can. Secondly, using herbs can be much less expensive than prescriptions. Third, environmental concerns. When drugs pass through our system, they end up in our waterways, and then in animals, and then often back in us. Finally, for better health. Herbs can prevent things from going wrong as well as helping when they are off-balance.
The Herbiary carries bulk medicinal herbs, tinctures (extracts from herbs made with alcohol), essential oils, flower essences, nutritional supplements and body care products. "While some people use the oils and essences to simply make their homes smell better, they also have therapeutic uses. If I burn myself on the stove, I'll run it under cold water and then put lavender essential oil on it. It's one of the best things for healing the skin. There are others that can help with opening your sinuses or with asthma.
"We're very fortunate with the standards my wife has set for the products we carry and the vendors we work with. I've taken most of the stuff that's in here. It's stuff that we feel really comfortable with and that we feel comfortable having other people take. We are sticklers for knowing where our products come from.
"However, it's important to note that herbs are not for everyone. It's not a simple one-to-one transfer to take an herb instead of a pharmaceutical drug. With herbs, many times it's about following a process. The herbs here don't come in pill form. They come in teas or tinctures. You might have to take something several times a day. We like to work with people on their diet and lifestyle as well as look for ways to improve health with herbs. When someone comes into the store with a specific condition, say a cold or allergies, I'm happy to work with them and talk about what might help them. But for people with more serious or chronic conditions, I'll encourage them to have a consultation with Maia."
Maia Toll, the other co-owner of the store and Celwyn's wife, started studying herbalism in her 20s. She had contracted Lyme disease, and there weren't a lot of options that Western medicine offered to help with it. She learned about herbs to heal herself. Then her friends began asking her advice, and she began to learn more. That led her to study in Ireland with herbalist Gina McGarry. "She lived in the middle of nowhere and would go out and gather the herbs herself, bring them home and make tinctures. She really learned how to work with herbs there," Celwyn said.
When Maia returned to the U.S., she studied herbs further at Sage Mountain in Vermont, Integrative Nutrition in New York and with Cherokee herbalist David Winston in New Jersey. But her goal wasn't to open a store. "She wanted to teach about herbs and consult with clients," said Andrew. "I was the one who said we really needed a presence to do that, so let's start a store."
Their first store opened in 2006 in the basement of a store at the corner of Rex Avenue and Germantown Avenue, which fittingly used to be an apothecary that stood there many years ago. But that space proved too small, and The Herbiary moved a year later to its present location at 7721 Germantown Ave., tucked in right next to The Night Kitchen.
This bigger space has allowed Toll to teach classes and offer consultations on-site with clients. She also is a professor of botanical medicine at West Chester University. Celwyn runs the Germantown Avenue store as well as a store in Reading Terminal they opened last year.
They chose to open a second store downtown because of the growing acceptance in society of alternative medicine in recent years, coupled with the exposure to millions of people who pass through Reading Terminal each year. "We've grown slowly, and our success is due to us not biting off more than we could chew.
"There's more opening of minds than there was 10 years ago [to alternative medicine]. Maia recently gave a lecture at Pennsylvania Hospital on botanical medicine, and Jefferson Hospital has an integrative medicine department, and has referred clients to Maia," Celwyn explained.
In the private consultations that Toll offers to clients, she is able to talk with them about the issues they are experiencing, as well as how herbs might interact with medications they are already taking.
But most often, Maia is able to work with dietary and lifestyle changes before using the herbs. "While seeing people go out the door without any of our products is not great for us as a business, we get happy clients in return," said Andrew. "We don't want anyone leaving with something they don't want."
Toll also offers classes on herbs at The Herbiary location in Chestnut Hill, including a 10-month introductory community herbalist training course, which examines a different body system every month and discusses the herbs that work with and affect those systems. There is also an every-day herbalism class which is less intense where students can learn how to incorporate herbs into their everyday life, including how to brew tea, make a salve and make their own tinctures.
"There's a lot to be gained from reclaiming that knowledge [about herbs]. There is a relationship we have with the plant world that is different than you're going to have with the pharmaceutical world," said Celwyn.
For more information on the products or classes at The Herbiary, visit their stores or http://www.herbiary.com/.
(Ed. Note: Self-diagnosis can be a risky business. While alternative medicine can complement traditional medicine, one should consult one's physician, of course, when a serious medical condition is involved.)

jhuckabee had een nieuw webpagina ontwerp nodig en lanceerde daarom een wedstrijd op 99designs.
Een winnaar werd gekozen uit10 ontwerpen ingezonden door7 freelance designers.
Industrial Coatings World is an online magazine for the coatings industry. We are scientists and chemists with extensive knowledge in the coatings industry, sharing our knowledge with other interested scientists and engineers. Although this might sound like a serious industry, we enjoy having fun, cracking jokes, and good humor. A design that can capture both aspects would be ideal.
This site is geared toward scientists, engineers, product developers, and product designers. Our audience is world-wide and very diverse in language, culture, and community.
The current site can be found at http://industrialcoatingsworld.com. This site started several years ago just as a way to disseminate knowledge on the subject of coatings. Since then, interest and demand in the subject online has grown. Although someday we hope to start publishing a physical magazine, our current short-term focus is a new online presence.
Please see the attached logo. This has just bee completed and will be used as the face of the magazine. The colors of the new design should complement the colors used in the logo.
A new site is in development at http://icw.test.circle9media.com/. You will need to use the username: icw09 and password: icwpassword09. We would like to keep the same general layout with header, main content on the left, and supporting content on the right. Feel free to play with the right 2 columns, but we would like the information that is there, easily accessible. Your design should include all of the elements currently on the front page of the site, but feel free to play with positioning.
We would like a modern, clean look & feel.

Internet service provider
From Conservapedia
(Redirected from ISP)
An internet service provider (ISP) is a company who provides customers with access to the World Wide Web. There are many varieties of internet service providers, some focusing on consumers, businesses (small, mid cap, large), government organizations, non-profit organizations, educational institutions, and/or other ISPs. ISPs may offer access via DSL, cable modem, dialup, fiber optic network, cellular, satellite, or power line communications among others. If an ISP is not itself a tier 1 provider, then it must lease connections through another provider to connect to outside networks. Most of the tier 1 providers are telephone companies such as AT&T.

Cameron Wake is active for today's game against the Baltimore Ravens.
That's a big deal for the Dolphins as they try to take down the defending Super Bowl champions. Wake will be matched up against Michael Oher -- you know, the kid from the blindside who happens to play the right side for Baltimore.
Randy Starks is slated to start at defensive tackle.
The other inactives are: QB Pat Devlin, RB Mike Gillislee, CB, Dimitri Patterson, CB Will Davis, LB Josh Kaddu, G Danny Watkins, and G Dallas Thomas.
For the Ravens, it is notable that WR Jacoby Jones is inactive. That's big.
It's also interesting that LT Eugene Monroe, acquired from Jacksonville this week, is inactive. Bryant McKinnie will start at LT.
Of course, if there's a live game, there's a live blog. Join below.

|By Any Other Name, oil on canvas, 8x8"
This is a painting of a pink rose and a purple flower given to me in a gift. Flowers, roses in particular are quite challenging to paint having so many petals, but I really enjoyed it.
About Me
Jane E Porter
I offer visual stories that portray my fascination with soul and psyche. Not being a purist, I often mix media and it's not unusual to find sand and plaster mixed with my paint. Some stories ask for a gritty, grungy expression while others require a delicate, layered approach.
Inspiration comes from everywhere: history, The Masters, the media, nature, psychology, philosophy, but most importantly, those around me and as it continues to flow, I am infinitely grateful.

By agreeing to a toothless invasion-of-privacy settlement with Google, federal and state authorities blew a chance to take a bolder stand against the Internet behemoth's prying into people's lives.
Between 2008 and 2010, Google employees carrying out its Street View mapping project drove by countless homes across America and harvested people's personal data, including passwords, medical records, financial accounts and emails. Google initially denied it had obtained private information. Then it said it didn't get that much information. Then it said whatever information it got was by accident. Then it said a rogue engineer was responsible. Then it said the data had been erased from its systems.
Not one of the denials turned out to be true, according to investigations by the Federal Communications Commission, more than three dozen state attorneys general, and law enforcement authorities in several other countries.
After hearing Google spout such a pack of fairy tales, no one should need a complex algorithm to figure out that the Web information giant should have zero credibility when it claims it respects people's privacy. Yet, after settling with 38 states and the District of Columbia, Google's punishment is a mere $7 million fine and a promise to reform and police itself. If Google tried to deny taking information it clearly took, how can it be trusted not to let that happen again?
The FCC determined that the rogue engineer whom Google blamed for scooping up people's personal data was actually working with others and had reported what happened to his supervisors. But the commission concluded that the engineer had been poorly supervised and fined Google only $25,000 for obstructing an FCC investigation.

Toby We are having a really hard time with BF'ing too We found out she has a high palate and recessed lower jaw so she can't make suction. On top of that I have to use a nipple shield because I have flat nipples. She went from 8.8 lbs to 7.8 lbs. and we started having to supplement her also. Now I am pumping until we can get her into an Occupational Therapist
It's so stressful-I feel your pain!

Re: new years eve chat
Fan-I just got 6yr old DD's ears done at Claire's for her birthday. It was a re-piercing, I had hers done originally at 9months at the Piercing Pagoda (in the mall too), but I let them close when she was around 2 and they did a great job re-piercing through the same holes (there was no scar tissue there). they had two ladies do the ears at the same time, one on each side of her. They did a wonderful job and there has been no problems with the holes. I know with anyplace especially Claire's it depends on the person doing them. I think one of my nieces was done at Claire's also.
I have done about 3 or 4 other nb ears at the Piercing Pagoda, not sure if you have one or if they are even still around. NO PROBLEMS at all with them. I don't know of any pediatricians who do them since they are cosmetic. I guess you could call around and ask over the phone first.
Toby-I feel your pain. Sorry things are difficult. this is my first time bf and things aren't going as planned. IT's HARD! I don't know what to say about latch just that I hope he will do it soon.
Samaya wasn't gaining back her weight so pedi told me to supplement with formula after breastfeeding. At 2 weeks, my nips were in so much pain that I HAD to give her a bottle,. I've also been dealing with a milk blister OUCH! I had alot of samples (ready to feed) and pedi gave me some more. When I was pg, I always imagined being an EBFer but things didn't work out that way, if I feel the need to bf I do, if I feel that I need to give a bottle I do, no nipple confusion here thankfully.
The rtf formula+ refrigerator in my bathroom+playtex nursers makes the process so much easier. It takes me a max of 1 minute to go through the whole process. I have a hot pot on my counter and I use that to sterilize the nips and rings. I just assemble everything at one time and replace the bags for each new feeding. I only keep 3 bottles in rotation so that cuts down on washing time.
I have always formula fed and I find the bf/formula feeding/pumping WAY easier than full-time formula feeding. I give baby a formula bottle around 10PM and then she breastfeeds throughout the night. I just have everything set up in my bathroom, otherwise I would take some powdered formula and keep room temp bottles with pre-measured water in it on the nightstand for the middle of the night.
Pumping is the hardest part for me, I don't like it, but I need to because I'm due back to work soon. Hopefully, things will get better and he will latch soon. I would love to EBF but that's not in the cards right now. I'm just thankful that I live in a time and place where I can use formula now and know that a combination of the two isn't going to hurt. I hope BF soon works out the way you would like it to.
Bry-Thanks for setting up the group. I joined.
I am letting baby girl go to DD's former babysitter, now I'm trying to decide if I'm going to send cloth or disposables. I picked up a pack of parent's choice dipes (wal-mart brand-my fave) yesterday-50 count for $6. I haven't asked babysitter about the cloth yet. trying to decide if it would be worth the extra effort to bring them back and forth everyday, but she has 2 kids of her own under 2 and i would love for her to see how easy it is (she has 5 kids altogether so it might really help her to save money). Also I'm looking at buying formula now and didn't want the costs of formula + sposies, I don't mind using them just thought when I was pg I'd do breastmilk +cloth to keep down costs.
M, N, I ( born too soon), S and newbie N 4/12 .

This Saturday in Dighton marks a Founder's Day celebration 300 years in the making.
This Saturday in Dighton marks a Founder's Day celebration 300 years in the making.
Beginning at 1 p.m., the Dighton Tricentennial Committee has a whole afternoon of special activities planned in honor of the 300th anniversary of the town's founding.
The celebrations will begin with a crossing of the Taunton River to the Dighton Ferry Landing on Pleasant Street — a re-enactment of what early settlers had to do to attend compulsory church services at the town's first meeting house on Elm Street.
"We're all going to be down there at the river," Selectmen Chair Bud Whalon said. "All the selectmen are going to be dressed in colonial outfits."
The selectmen and residents dressed in colonial attire will cross the river in boats and then travel on foot and by horse and buggy to the Friendship Hall on Elm Street — the site of the town's third meeting house, which is also near the town's first meeting house.
"We have a small, short ceremony planned (at Friendship Hall). We'll be greeted there by Native Americans, as was the norm because they had an extensive site where they lived near the Council Oak," Colette McKeon, Chair of the Dighton Tricentennial Committee said.
The ceremony will include Native American drummers, colonial bell ringers and speeches from town officials explaining the history of Dighton. Colonists are expected to travel from Pleasant Street to Elm Street from 1:30 to 2 p.m., and the ceremony is expected to begin around 2 p.m.
"I think (the ceremony) is a great thing," Whalon said. "We all have a little something to say about Dighton and its past."
The event at Friendship Hall will also include award ceremonies for the Brothers of the Brush, a local club dedicated to residents growing facial hair for Founder's Day. According to Robert "Woody" Woods, who organized the Brothers of the Brush, about 75 residents have joined the club and will be competing for awards for the best facial hair.
Winners from a student essay contest will also be announced at the ceremony. One winner will be chosen from each school — which includes the elementary, middle and high schools as well as Bristol County Agricultural High School — and the winners will receive a prize and read their essays to the crowd.
Light refreshments will follow the closing of the ceremony — expected at 3:30 p.m — and a special ecumenical service for the public will be held at the Dighton Community Church located next to Friendship Hall at 7:30 p.m.
"It ought to be really great, a lot of fun," Whalon said.

Liz reports on her first Fletcher trip
Last week, Liz and three other APSIA colleagues (nicknamed the G4) climbed into a van and toured the south. I'm a happy blogger because she wrote about it AND took a bunch of photos, which she arranged far more artfully than I ever do! Here's Liz's well-documented report.
My first travel experience with Fletcher!
Though I've traveled a lot in my roles prior to Fletcher, I had never experienced group travel before, and had never embarked on a minivan trip with colleagues from other schools. I'll admit, I was a little nervous leading up to the trip, as I had only been at Fletcher a little over a month and I wasn't sure what to expect. That said, I was also really excited to try something new, meet new people, and see some parts of the U.S. that I had only ever flown over! I packed up my favorite suitcase and headed to Logan Airport to start this next work adventure with an open mind and my camera at the ready. My trip began on a Friday in Washington, D.C., where I worked an Idealist Fair, and then I headed further south on Sunday to Nashville (otherwise known as music city) to meet up with the rest of the G4.
A little background info: "G4" is a group of four schools consisting of SAIS (Johns Hopkins), SIPA (Columbia) and Georgetown MSFS, in addition to Fletcher. We plan travel each year to college campuses across the country and join forces in meeting students. We've been traveling like this for over 30 years and everyone looks forward to these particular recruiting trips! The idea is that there are a lot of similarities between our schools, but we also have unique characteristics that make us each who we are. We give school presentations and answer questions at every visit, while highlighting what makes each of the four schools similar and different.
Before starting the G4 trip, I got to spend some time in D.C. after the Idealist event. Here are some pictures from my day off on Saturday, which was spent sightseeing and enjoying the magnificent weather!
From D.C., I flew down to Nashville on Sunday to meet up with the other schools and begin our G4 Southern Swing, which started on Monday morning. I had never been to Nashville before so I spent Sunday afternoon exploring the downtown area and checking out the Country Music Hall of Fame. It was neat to see all the live music venues and even cooler to hear all the different music as you walked around town. I loved that no matter where I turned I could hear live music from every direction.
We met up Sunday night for an amazing dinner at Merchants (I highly recommend the soup/sammie combo) and then headed out first thing Monday morning for visits at Fisk University and Belmont University. We then drove from Nashville over to Sewanee, TN to visit the University of the South. Everyone said the drive would be stunning and it didn't disappoint. We drove over the Cumberland Plateau, which had incredible views of the mountains and valleys for as far as the eye could see! If you have the opportunity, definitely take a drive from Nashville to Monteagle, TN.
The next morning we left Tennessee and made our way down to Atlanta for a few days with visits to Morehouse/Spellman, Emory, Agnes Scott, and the University of Georgia out in Athens. It was neat for me to see all the different campuses and I was especially captivated by the size of the football stadiums (I'm from New Hampshire – we don't have anything like that back home!). From Atlanta we went to Gainesville, Florida to visit Florida A&M and University of Florida, and we ended our tour in Tallahassee at Florida State University. All-in-all it was a wonderful experience; I learned lots of new things and made some great new friends! I'm looking forward to my next G4 trip to Southern California in a few weeks! Enjoy the pictures from the trip below. Take note: Fletcher is everywhere, even on the UF campus (see first pic)!
You can catch up with us at more recruiting events next week in NY, DC, Atlanta, and Chicago (sign up here) or at our next G4 trip which heads to Mexico and Texas in early November.
Until next time!

First day - racings and fun freestyle session in France/ La Baule
The MINI Kitesurf Tour Europe 2012 descended on France along with 117 riders, 76 racers and 41 freestyle competitors, ready to show off their very best on the waters of the Atlantic Ocean. With an ideal event site at La Baule, the week ahead looks to be an eventful and exciting one, filled with biggest names in kiteboarding and set at one of the most beautiful locations in the French region of Loire Atlantique.
Riders from 20 nations turned up for the 4th leg of the MINI Kitesurf Tour Europe, excited to compete against the best kite racers and freestylers, to find out where they stand in this European tour event.
With a full five days ahead, riders will be sure to have fun on and off the water, experiencing the conditions, lifestyle and French atmosphere.
Racing kicked off the competition at 11am with three fleets split in 4 races. Competitors entered the water and battled it out for lead positioning. In each race, the top-ranked riders, including Adam Koch (USA), Julien Kerneur (FRA), Riccardo Leccese (COL), and Olivier Dansin (FRA) went head to head at the front of the pack.
In the women fleet, it was almost an all around winning day for North rider Steph Bridge (North, GBR) who managed to race her way gracefully across the finish line first in three of four races today. French racer Caroline Adrien (Cabrinha, FRA), Michalina Laskowska (POL) and Katja Roose (Airush, NED) battled for place two, three and four. Roose managed to finish second of the day while Adrien took third place, followed by Laskowska.
Around 2:30pm, wind picked up for a funny expression session just in front of the Island of La Baule. Almost all freestylers went out to train their kitesurfing skills in light and sunny conditions. After a funny and amazing day at 7pm the opening ceremony took place on the beach with some cocktails and hot sounds.
All in all, the MINI Kitesurf Tour Europe to guest at La Baule Derby Kite is on the way to be a giant success, filled with racing and outstanding freestyle action. Tomorrow, forecasts call for lighter winds.

Amy Adams is convinced her teenage love life suffered because of her bodybuilder mother, whose ripped physique was "really intimidating" to her skinny boyfriends.
"The Fighter" star's mom Kathryn took up weightlifting after having Adams and her six siblings, and the Hollywood beauty admits having such a muscular parent made dating difficult.
Adams tells U.K. talk show host Graham Norton, "She had seven kids and then she decided she wanted to get into bodybuilding. She did enter competitions, she was kind of like semi-professional, started as a novice. She started when she was 35 bodybuilding after seven kids – she looked good, she was ripped!
"She was really intimidating to my boyfriends. I tended to date skinny skinny guys. She
moved a TV in front of one of them once and he was terrified. We were watching a movie and the TV wasn't getting reception, so she literally picked it up and moved it to another part of the (room). She's tough, she's a tough woman!"
Adams is now engaged to actor and artist Darren Le Gallo.

have been building my own c kites the past few years. First time building a bridle strutless bow kite. Kite flies fine, but I made a mistake of making the polyurethane bladder too wide for the narrow leading edge. Because of this I could not pump the kite hard enough so it distorts a bit on a power stroke. I might also have made the leading edge a bit too narrow, so I'm not sure if I can fix the distortion during the power stroke. Otherwise the kite flies fine. I think I will play with this prototype a bit more before going ahead and building a 13 meter strutless version.
I call this kite Phoenix, its a 4 meter strutless prototype. The kite does not look clean as I would like it to be because it is 90% made from recycled kite material:
1) Canopy is from other people's broken kites that were going to be thrown away in the trash (two broken 2001 yellow 7 meter Caution spitfires), and RRD pieces donated by Ino.
2) Leading edge is from tent polyester lining.
3) Bladder is from polyurethane bags that I recovered from a construction site.
The only things that are new are: bridles, black nylon ripstop tapes, and v92/v46 threads.
Pictures coming soon

ZakiPoint - bringing intelligence to point problems
I am an entrepreneur with passion for solving problems using data. I have build technology driven businesses in the past.
I am launching a new business that is looking to combine intelligent analysis of data about consumers to solve point problems. Initially I will be providing consulting and advisory support. The goal is to turn that eventually into a product driven business.
I am particularly keen to take a bold approach to communicating the value of my new venture and services to prospective clients. Seth Godin's book on Purple Cow resonates with me. With the cluttered world around us, we need to stand out like a purple cow.
Zaki means Intelligent in Arabic. The addition of Point is to help client focus on a point problem that can be solved with intelligent analysis. My premise is that there is tremendous amount of data captured by businesses, but rarely analyzed or combined to solve point problems.
Executives of businesses, Sales and Marketing directors, CEOs of small and medium businesses and sometimes director of new proposition in larger companies.
These prospective customers are largely in the US and UK, but may well be in Asia & Europe.
The name ZakiPoint combines Intelligent & Point. The logo should try to bring out this two theme name
Logo should communicate: boldness, creativity, professionalism and clear thinking.
It should also communicate "premium" brand, but no nonsense approach.
- Simple logo that brings the two words together or the emphasis of zaki and point
- font that is speedy and bold in feeling
Dont like:
gimmicky or cartoony figures
The logo should work well online and print. Particularly in social media where I will promote our thought leadership in forums like Twitter, LinkedIN, quora etc.
Some logos that I like:

Grain prices surged higher following USDA's Jan. 11 crop production report estimating lower ending stocks for corn and beans and lower than expected wheat plantings.
Brian Hoops, president and senior marketing analyst, Midwest Market Solutions, speaking at the Minneapolis Grain Exchange January press briefing on the USDA report, said the higher prices could continue into the spring.
There were no big surprises from the previous month in USDA's estimate of crop size for corn or soybeans, noted Hoops.
USDA's final production number for the 2007 corn crop was 13.074 billion bushels. While that is the highest production number in history, "it is down from the previous estimates. We've been trending lower since the August crop, with each month giving us slightly lower production figures."
Soybean production came in at 2.585 billion bushels, which was in line with trade estimates. "The figure was down slightly from November and like corn, the production number has trended down over the last several months."
However, due to strong forecast demand, ending stocks for both crops "are very bullish," Hoops said. "Corn ending stocks of 1.438 billion bushels is a huge decline from last month's 1.797 billion bushels. That's only 134 million bushels more than a year ago. We produced 2.535 billion more bushels in 2007 than in 2006, yet ending stocks increased only by 134 million bushels.
"It goes back to demand. We've seen food, feed and industrial use increase over last year. We're feeding more livestock, and inventory reports indicate supplies of livestock and poultry substantially over last year."
Also driving corn prices higher are forecast corn exports of 2.45 billion bushels, the highest in 18 years. "We had another sale this morning (Jan. 9) of 120,000 metric tons of corn to an unknown destination and South Korea just purchased 296,000 metric tons. So we're seeing a big demand in this corn market, which has not done its job of rationing the ending stocks."
On Jan. 11, March corn finished up 20 cents at $4.95, and December picked up 20 cents to finish at $5.13. The following Monday, March moved up 16.75 to finish at $5.11, while December moved up 17.25 to finish at $5.30.
Meanwhile ending stocks for soybeans at 175 million bushels "is one of the tightest numbers that we've had in the last five years. It is down 10 million bushels from last month. We have a demand trend for 2008 of 3 billion bushels, but we don't have a lot of ending stocks to carry us over. So I believe November 2008 soybeans will continue to move higher.
"We have to buy 6 million to 8 million more acres of soybeans to start rebuilding these ending stocks. We have to make up nearly 400 million bushels. Corn is also in a dogfight for acres, so prices for both corn and soybeans should move higher."
"The million dollar question is how high must soybeans go to get the acreage it needs to supply demand," Hoops said. "We're in uncharted waters, an unprecedented area in wheat and soybeans. Wheat went $2.50 above its all-time high. It wouldn't be unrealistic to see soybeans do the same type of thing. At $2.50 above the old $12.70 high, we're looking at over-$15 beans. That's possible given what the market has to accomplish this year."
At the end of trading on Jan. 11, March beans settled 38.5 cents higher at $12.98 a bushel, while November settled up 50 cents, at $12.45. However, the following Monday, Jan. 14, beans just couldn't get into the teens, with March down 3.5 cents to $12.95 and November up 17 cents to $12.62.
Hoops noted that winter wheat seeding for 2008, at 46.6 million acres, "is up 4 percent from 2007, but lower than what the trade was expecting. It looks bullish for the trade."
Hard red winter wheat acres, at 32.5 million acres, is down 1 percent from last year. Acreage of this class was down in almost every state except South Dakota and Montana. "We think dry weather has limited planting in some parts of the region."
Increases came in the soft red winter wheat areas, where acreage increased about 21 percent over 2007.
"Estimated wheat carryout of 292 million bushels was a little more than the average trade guess, and about 12 million bushels above last month. It is still down substantially from a year ago. But most of the focus in the market is going to be on the new crop."
On Jan. 11, March wheat finished up 26.75, at $9.09, while July wheat finished up 30, to $8.06. On the following Monday, March was up 5.75 to $9.15, while July was up 30 to $8.36.

The Storage Problem You Can't Ignore
It's not news that storage is swamping IT budgets. Our 2011 InformationWeek Analytics State of Storage Survey shows the amount of actively managed storage expanding at around 20% per year. In our practice, we work with a few companies dealing with growth levels in excess of 50%. At this rate, most data centers double storage capacity requirements every two to three years. And as employees start using multiple mobile devices and consumer applications for work, that estimate could be conservative.
In our first InformationWeek Analytics Public Cloud Storage Survey, fielded in April, 59% of respondents using, planning to adopt, or assessing public cloud storage services called out email as the application most responsible for storage growth, followed by increasing demand from new or planned applications (58%). Seventy-six percent said they're somewhat or very concerned about storage costs, and most CIOs we speak with insist they're actively seeking to reduce those expenditures while still keeping data available. So you can imagine our surprise that, when asked exactly what they're spending per gigabyte, nearly half our survey respondents said they have no clue. They have data retention policies, but enforcement is all over the map. When we asked about strategies that could lower storage costs, we got a virtual yawn: Just 10% plan to use external storage services within the next two years. Only half are taking advantage of storage virtualization. Sixty-one percent either make do with the management tools provided by their storage vendors (53%) or don't actively manage storage resources at all (8%).
Let's be clear: No vendor is going to show up with a multifunction storage uber-solution that will save us from ourselves. Among our enterprise clients, storage volume growth is outstripping the dropping price of physical media--limiting IT innovation as costs go through the roof.
We must do the hard work of figuring out the right mix of policies and technologies to balance access, performance vs. capacity, security, and short- and long-term costs. We must figure out what, exactly, we're paying per gigabyte for internal storage so we can do an intelligent total-cost-of-ownership analysis of not only various cloud service alternatives, but also new technologies like solid-state drives, deduplication, and storage virtualization. Is Fibre Channel your future, or is it time to move to Ethernet? Do you need to revisit your tiering strategy?
