SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - A green Canadian soccer team gets to gauge its talent against an equally young Denmark side Saturday in a friendly in Tucson.
The game is the first for the Canadian men's program since a humiliating 8-1 loss last October that knocked Canada out of World Cup qualifying. Only three starters from that game — goalkeeper Lars Hirschfeld, winger Nik Ledgerwood and striker Tosaint Ricketts are expected to be in the starting 11 Saturday as the Canadian Soccer Association opted for young, largely developmental squad at its Arizona camp.
The Danes have done the same, since the game does not fall on a FIFA international date — meaning top players are hard to pry away from their clubs.
Canada is ranked 64th in the world compared to No. 23 for Denmark, but those numbers mean little given the makeup of the squads.
Still interim coach Colin Miller knows the size of the challenge that awaits his young team and has been managing expectations all week.
"Absolutely massive. An enormous task given the group that we have," he said of facing Denmark. "Even if we had our full team it would still be an enormous task."
After the game, the Canadians leave Sunday for Houston and a friendly Tuesday against a largely domestic U.S. side. The Danes meet Mexico on Wednesday in Phoenix.
Miller says the Canadian camp has already been a success, given that it has welcomed new players into the national team fold while adding to the depth of the program.
"I've taken the pressure off the guys. A result (Saturday) and Tuesday is secondary," said Miller, whose steady hand has been in evidence all week. "Let's see if we can get something that we can really get our teeth into and build for the future.
"Out last result was, unfortunately, an 8-1 defeat. If we can try to get a positive performance and hopefully a good result (Saturday), that sort of pushes that to the background and now we continue to look forward."
Of course, another shellacking would not help the program's image.
"It can happen at any level of football," said Miller, who recalls a 6-0 Scottish Cup loss to Glasgow Rangers while he was managing Hamilton Academical in Scotland.
Miller has not announced his lineup but his likely starting 11 Saturday will feature Hirschfeld in goal behind a backline of Ashtone Morgan, Dejan Jakovic, Nana Attakora and Doneil Henry. Ledgerwood and Russell Teibert will be on the wings with Terry Dunfield and Kyle Bekker in central midfield. Former MLS MVP Dwayne De Rosario and Ricketts will play up front.
Dunfield, whose no-holds-barred approach to the game exemplifies Miller's work ethic, is likely to lead the team out at the 11,000-seat Kino Veterans Memorial Stadium.
"The players, I'm very happy with the work they've done," Miller said after practice Friday before the team headed by bus to Tucson. "They go across the white line (Saturday) and we'll see where the cards fall.
"The group is in a very good space at the moment and that's I think all the (Canadian Soccer) Association wanted from me."
The CSA is currently searching for a permanent replacement for Stephen Hart, who stepped down after the Honduras beating.
Miller has spent the week trying to establish a defensive framework for a 22-man squad that features 11 players born in the '90s.
"I haven't spoke about Denmark all week," he said. "Because if the guys aren't aware of the qualities they (the Danes) will bring (Saturday), then there's something seriously wrong.
"We've focused solely on what our jobs are."
Miller has preached discipline to his team, keeping the ball in front of them and making the easy pass over the complicated. At times, he has had to rein in his young charges who have tended to lose shape in their enthusiasm.
Canada is missing the likes of Kevin McKenna, Atiba Hutchinson, Julian de Guzman, Patrice Bernier, Will Johnson, Ante Jazic, Andre Hainault, Iain Hume, Simeon Jackson, David Edgar and Oliver Occean.
Denmark is without star striker Nicklas Bendtner (the Arsenal player on loan to Juventus is injured) and Liverpool defender Daniel Agger, among a host of others.
Michael Silberbauer, Lars Jacobsen and Dennis Rommedahl are the only starters from Denmark's last World Cup qualifying game, a 3-1 loss to 10-man Italy last October, who are in the touring squad. Six others — Jores Okore, Kasper Lorentzen, Jesper Hansen, Casper Sloth, Emil Larsen and Steffen Rasmussen — were on the bench that day.
Rommedahl's resume includes stops at Ajax, Charlton Athletic, PSV Eindhoven, Olympiakos and now Brondby IF. The 34-year-old winger is a former Danish Footballer of the Year.
Twenty-four of Denmark's 32-man touring squad were born in the 1990s led by forward Andreas Cornelius, who doesn't turn 20 until mid-March. He has been turning heads at FC Copenhagen where he has 16 goals in 20 appearances this season.
The Danes (0-1-2) currently stand fifth in a tough World Cup qualifying group that also features Italy, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Armenia and Malta.
They resume World Cup qualifying play in March against the Czechs and Bulgaria.
Canadian fullback Andres Fresenga and forward Frank Jonke have both been hampered by injuries in the leadup to the Denmark game.
Both are expected to be included on the bench to get a taste of the action. Miller is allowed six substitutions and is likely to use all of them, giving several players their first cap.

With the recent release of Dr. Keith R. Brown's Buying Into Fair Trade: Culture, Morality, and Consumption, I now feel guilt free. Our books are distinctly different in that Keith (transparency alert: a friendly colleague) is a trained sociologist who bases his book on ethnographic research. But if you want a comprehensive primer about how fair trade came to be, why it is important, and what are its strengths and weaknesses--plus an analysis of consumer behavior--this book is for you.
Don't get me wrong. I feel like my book still makes a contribution, and ideally the two would be a great pair. But if you have to choose one, buy Keith's book for fresh perspectives and academic insights into the movement and the marketplace.
The timing is right for me personally, as I leave my professional role in the fair trade movement to address hunger issues domestically as Executive Director of Manna Food Center. I won't have access to the best information and analysis in the movement so consider following Fair Trade Chronicles for insights and stories.
Thanks for all of you who have purchased the 8,000 or so copies of my book. Better yet, to those of you who passed them on or ordered copies for the local library. I'll always be a fair trader at heart, and it is a deep satisfaction to know I have had a small role to play in making trade fairer for those producers who struggle to build community and use their skills and talents to create the products that fill my daily life.
* Fair Trade and How It Works is a second, hard cover edition that features a few minor revisions made in 2010.

Peter Hayashi of Newton, a 56-year-old father of two and former faculty member at Harvard Medical School, is one of the last people you'd expect to see buying pot on the street.
But Hayashi suffers from allodynia, a hypersensitive reaction to sensation, which leaves him in severe and constant pain. Even a gentle breeze across his face can be excruciating; he spends most days swathed in layers of stretch clothing, lying on a waterbed.
The clinical psychologist has tried many prescribed medications and several alternative therapies. He has access to the best Harvard doctors and researchers. But not until he tried marijuana did he experience an ease of symptoms and a big improvement in the quality of his life.
"I didn't want to bring it into my house with my kids, but it's inescapable that I'm much better off having it here when I need it," he said. "I buy it on the street, but don't feel I have safe access."
This good man is technically a criminal, a status that would change if Massachusetts voters decide Nov. 6 to legalize the use of marijuana for medical purposes. Here's hoping the question passes, despite opponents who remain intent on treating this benign, helpful substance like a dangerous and evil gateway drug.
Let's be honest. Many of us have smoked marijuana and some of us still do. Successful people such as Bill Maher, Andrew Sullivan, Woody Harrelson and scores of others are open about their affinity for recreational weed. In 2008, the state voted overwhelmingly to decriminalize the possession of small amounts of marijuana. The sky has yet to fall, also consumption of Twinkies has likely risen.
Still, though, opponents of Question 3 contend that the proposed law is flawed and would lead to widespread use of marijuana, as though it's not already easy to get on the streets. They claim that marijuana is a gateway to harder drugs, despite numerous studies that refute the claim. They say pot can lead to addiction, but any substance used in excess can lead to addiction, and far more social drinkers become alcoholics than recreational pot smokers become potheads.
If the referendum passes, Massachusetts would become the 18th state to legalize medicinal marijuana. Doctors would have the option to prescribe it to patients who meet certain guidelines, including having been diagnosed with cancer, glaucoma, AIDS, Crohn's disease, ALS or multiple sclerosis. The law would allow patients to keep a 65-day supply, and up to 35 nonprofit dispensaries statewide would be eligible to sell it. Fraudulent use calls for jail time.
Dr. James Broadhurst, a Worcester physician, leads the opposition. He said marijuana isn't medicine and hasn't been evaluated by the Federal Drug Administration, which is a rather circuitous argument, given that it can't be properly studied because it's illegal. And Broadhurst acknowledged that "there's no question marijuana has medicinal value," but said the list of diagnoses that would allow someone to obtain the drug is too broad.
"This is a gateway to legalization," he said. "This is a sham." Asked if he believed pot should be legalized, he said, "That's not the question that's in front of us … If we're going to legalize marijuana, let's do it. But let's not wrap it in this cloak and exploit the sick."
People in pain, such as Peter Hayashi, are more than willing to be "exploited" if it means safe and legal access to a substance that improves their lives. Since he began inhaling pot with a vaporizer, Hayashi was able to attend his first open house at his son's school, and said he can spend "quality time" with his daughter when she comes home from college.
"If the bill passed, it would mean a lot to me," Hayashi said. "But I'm just one of many patients it would mean a lot to."
Many of us know one. Voting yes on Question 3 is a no-brainer.

Science Daily, 7/2/12- For eastern Pacific populations of leatherback turtles, the 21st century could be the last. New research suggests that climate change could exacerbate existing threats and nearly wipe out the population. Deaths of turtle eggs and hatchlings in nests buried at hotter, drier beaches are the leading projected cause of the potential climate-related decline, according to a new study in the journal Nature Climate Change by a research team from Drexel University, Princeton University, other institutions and government agencies.
Leatherbacks, the largest sea turtle species, are among the most critically endangered due to a combination of historical and ongoing threats including egg poaching at nesting beaches and juvenile and adult turtles being caught in fishing operations. The new research on climate dynamics suggests that climate change could impede this population's ability to recover. If actual climate patterns follow projections in the study, the eastern Pacific population of leatherback turtles will decline by 75 percent by the year 2100.
Leatherback turtle births naturally ebb and flow from year to year in response to climate variations, with more hatchlings, and rare pulses of male hatchlings, entering the eastern Pacific Ocean in cooler, rainier years. Female turtles are more likely to return to nesting beaches in Costa Rica to lay eggs in years when they have more jellyfish to eat, and jellyfish in the eastern Pacific are likely more abundant during cooler seasons. Turtle eggs and hatchlings are also more likely to survive in these cooler, rainier seasons associated with the La Niña climate phase, as this research team recently reported in the journal PLoS ONE. In addition, temperature inside the nest affects turtles' sex ratio, with most male hatchlings emerging during cooler, rainier seasons to join the predominantly-female turtle population.

Fanconi Hope
Fanconi Hope is a national charitable trust set up in 2008 by parents of FA-affected children and clinicians with an interest in Fanconi Anaemia to provide guidance and information for patients, families, clinicians and researchers.
Fanconi Anaemia (FA) is a rare, inherited life-limiting genetic disorder causing bone marrow failure in children and a predisposition to gynaecological and head & neck cancers, together with other complications both in childhood and in later life. Whilst the bone marrow failure element can be corrected through bone marrow transplantation from a well-matched donor, there is still no cure for the cancer-predisposing condition.

Okay, say "hello" to our new (dynamic) /robots.txt; what you see there will depend on what hostname you use to visit PerlMonks. Compare http://perlmonks.net/robots.txt vs. http://www.perlmonks.org/robots.txt.

This is something we might not do for a regular season game, but it's the PLAYOFFS so in-depth analysis it is!
Vic Carucci of NFL.com released this video yesterday afternoon. He really went out on a limb with his key matchups (sarcasm) picking Ben vs. Chargers pass rush and Rivers vs. Steelers D. Obviously the quarterback plays a huge role every game, so who do you think will do better and will the other D be able to adjust?

In 2013 I did a show at Massimo DeCarlo Gallery in Milan of painted billboards that all addressed the question "how to live." I remember feeling self critical after the show because I wanted my work to be about life and living – not an illustration of it. But after working on a series of discussion questions for the year's Institute of Investigative Living, I'm falling in love with these works all over again. I think that they basically have managed to encapsulate quandaries that I have keep coming back to year after year… both in my personal life and with my practice.

The Prince Of Wales has decided to offer out the Scottish home he saved for the nation, Dumfries House, in 2007 just before it went on sale at around £25 million. He is offering 40 guests the chance to enjoy a romantic Valentine's Day night in Dumfries House.
Prince Charles helped put together a charitable consortium that bought the house and its collection of Chippendale furniture for £45million. It was previously owned by the Marquess of Bute, the former racing driver Johnny Dumfries.
The experience will cost £85 per person and guests will be given a light tour of the house. Couples who book tables together are offered a free complimentary bottle of prosecco.
Latest accounts for Dumfries House Trust show that it made gross profits of only £54,846 in the year to the end of last March – down from £209,584 the previous year.
Forty guests are to be welcomed into Dumfries House, in East Ayrshire, where they will be entertained in the great steward's dining room, which will be "lavishly dressed for the most romantic evening of the year," according to a spokesman for the property.

The Creative Activism Program is designed for all students to discuss the experiences of Jews during WWII. The exhibit will specifically focus on the Terezin transit camp and how detainees created art to express their hardships and emotions during times of distress.
The workshop will allow students to develop critical thinking skills, by asking students the following series of questions: What does it mean to live through a traumatic event? How can we discuss sensitive topics? How can art be used to express empathy?
To answer the preceding questions, students will engage in a variety of activities to learn about Art Therapy in Terezin. Students will then create an illustration representing how the workshop has impacted their perspective on a historical event. At the end of the session, the art will be showcased in a special exhibit on Terezin in the Fall of 2020.

We're almost reluctant to out a certain Don Jones II as a master of Twitter, because we all know that s̶t̶u̶d̶e̶n̶t̶s̶ athletes who exhibit true voice on social media scare the thin liquid shits out of university athletics officials. But what the hell.
You wonder how a team feels when its head coach bolts after a single season? And how that team feels when two coaches do that in consecutive years? Look no further than the Twitter feed of this senior defensive back (pictured above, #5) at Arkansas State University, who watched Hugh Freeze ride in, go 10-2, and scram for Ole Miss, then Gus Malzahn replace Freeze, go 9-3, and scram for Auburn.
Herewith, then, Mr. Jones' analysis. No narcs.

Warren mom, neighbor in custody after newborn dies
Sources: 3-weeks-old baby girl suffered fractured skull
WARREN, Mich. – Local 4 is on the scene of an infant death investigation in Warren. The little girl -- just 3 weeks old -- died earlier Friday at St. John-Providence Hospital in Detroit.
"It's so sad," said neighbor Mark Williams, who watched as police served two search warrants on two homes in the 7200 block of Orchard.
Warren police first took a neighbor into custody. The child and mother live next door to the woman's home.
Sources tell Local 4 the baby girl was brought to the hospital unresponsive and suffering from multiple head injuries.
Neighbors tell Local 4 the mother herself told them the baby choked on milk and was in intensive care but our sources say the baby is suffering from a fractured skull.
Warren Police are trying to put together a time-line of events.
At 1 p.m. Thursday a 911 call came in from the neighbor's home for a baby vomiting. The baby was rushed to the hospital and then transferred to St. John in Detroit.
Hospital staff alerted Detroit Police to the suspicious death. When police arrived, the baby's mother fled the hospital.
She was arrested hours later on an outstanding warrant.
Warren Police are investigating the death as a homicide. However, they weren't called about the devastating injuries or the baby's death until nearly 24 hours after 911 was called.
Investigators now have some serious questions for that mother and her neighbor, they will undergo questioning tonight to find out what happened to the baby.

"Biosimilar" drug bill seeks to pre-empt FDA
House Bill 1121 in the Colorado legislature is being sold as a way to bring down the price of a certain classification of drugs called "biosimilars"; it's not.
HB 1121 is an attempt to pre-empt the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on "biosimilar" products. We should be more concerned about protecting the public health by ensuring the safety, efficacy and security of human and veterinary drugs, biological products and medical products by the FDA before they go to market.
HB 1121 is a complicated and confusing bill by design. It is being promoted by two drug companies that want to impede the ability of the market to develop less expensive options of some important medications.
The big question is why Colorado would want to get involved in an issue when the FDA is still considering its options. We have a process that must be followed. Why would we legislate something that doesn't even exist yet?

Suspension 100
Manufacturer: Dragon Pharma
Substance: Testosterone Suspension
Pack: 10 ml vial (100mg/ml)
Suspension 100 by Dragon Pharma is an anabolic steroid injection which contain 100mg per ML of the Hormone Testosterone and it is available in a 1ml ampoule.
Testosterone Suspension is an injectable hormone in a water base, but not esterified. This type of form will produce a fast time-release of Testosterone in the blood system so it is necessary to inject it not very frequent, unlike Propionate ester which have a fast time release. Injecting Testosterone Cypionate two times a week is enough for keeping the blood levels of the hormone at a normal rate. Testosterone is one of the most generic anabolic steroids, and the most essential. This is the reason why most bodybuilders stack it in almost any steroid cycle.
Suspension 100 is an anabolic steroid with high androgenic effects, and due to this it will produce a quick muscles grow and an increase of strength, as well a general sense of well-being and a big desire of having sex.
Testosterone produce aromatization even at low doses, thus producing noticeable estrogen side effects. So bodybuilders who are looking on using Suspension 100 must stack an anti-estrogenic product in their cycle for maintaining the estrogen levels at a low rate. A good choice would be Nolvadex, Arimidex or Proviron. Bodybuilders who are using high doses of Testosterone will notice that stacking Femara or Exedrol will give them a more efficient anti-estrogenic effect. By being an androgenic steroid, Testosterone can produce several androgenic side effects, so if you'll notice that you've got oily skin, than you should know that it is OK, just use a proper PCT.
Stacking Suspension 100 with Equipoise or Deca Durabolin is really efficient if your looking to do a bulking cycle. Many bodybuilders would add an oral steroid like Anadrol or Dianabol. For a cutting cycle many bodybuilders would prefer to add a Trenbolone to their cycle, and an oral steroid like Anavar or Winstrol tabs.
Using of Suspension 100 will decrease natural body's testosterone production, but don't get worried because this thing can be fixed by doing a proper PCT without loosing the gains even after you stopped using the steroid. At the end of the cycle bodybuilders and athletes will prefer to use a stack of Nolvadex, HCG and Clomid for about 3 weeks for an effective restore of testes functionality and the pituitary gland.
Female bodybuilders also use this steroid, but at a lower dose than the male's dose, to avoid masculizing side effects.
The main difference between Enanthate and Cypionate esters is that Cypionate produce a lower water retention.
Testosterone Suspension doses for men: 400 - 1200 mg/week
Testosterone Suspension doses for women: 50 - 100 mg/week

Safe Stretching Guide
As we age, the flexibility of our connective tissues-the ligaments, tendons, cartilage and muscle all decrease. This is inevitable. Yet research indicates that by performing regular flexibility work, we can increase our range of motion by as much as 20-30 percent at any age.
Taking steroids causes intense changes in the hormonal balance of the body. Although the desired effects can be positive for muscle building and fat-loss, there are many negative side effects that can, and will, occur. After a steroid cycle, users should prepare to combat the unwanted effects by planning what is called a Post-Cycle-Therapy.

Oct. 12 Andy Pettitte postgame interview
Q. Andy, but when you think about the Tigers and the 3‑4‑hitters, how do you thinking about pitching?
ANDY PETTITTE: Obviously knowing I was in the pen tonight maybe and just focused on this game, no time at all to think about it. Obviously you have Cabrera in there and Fielder, great hitters. Just hope you can get out there and make quality pitches. Nothing different, you know, just try to make quality pitches.
You know it is going to be tough games. And for me hopefully have good command of all of my pitches, not walk any guys and give us a chance to win, and hopefully give us a good outing.
Q. I am sure you have been asked this question many times, but this is what you came back for, to start the opening of the American League Championship Series, and be in the big spot once again.
ANDY PETTITTE: Yeah, it is. Like I said, you know, a lot of times I came back to hopefully help this club get into this position, to help this pitching staff, to help take some of the stress off the other starters, and hopefully be able to give us quality starts whenever I take the mound, and give us a chance to hopefully get deep in the games and give us a chance to win. So it's nice to feel like I have been able to do that, whenever I have been able to be healthy and get out there. So excited about the opportunity to be in this series, obviously to move along. I don't think we have been out of the first round since '09, I believe.
Q. Two years ago.
ANDY PETTITTE: Two years ago. So it is great. It is great to get through the first round and move on to the League Championship Series.
Q. The responsibility you talked about, do you feel it even more now that obviously CC had to get the team through this and not pitching until the middle of the series? Does it put more on you in terms of carrying that responsibility?
ANDY PETTITTE: Yeah. I couldn't say that I feel any more pressure, I just ‑‑ look, we have to have a team effort. We have to have our starters throwing the ball well, or we're not going to win this series probably. I feel like I am able to simplify it to that extent. Definitely need to give us a good start and get the series off to a good first game, that's for sure.
Q. How impressed are you with the job the staff did overall, over the five games?
ANDY PETTITTE: Obviously very impressed. CC, you can't say enough about what he has done. To be able to go on the road, it is tough. Postseason is tough on the road, pitching in those games. And to do what he did, make the pitches that he did when he was in trouble in Baltimore, to get us into the ninth inning like he did. And tonight, just absolutely amazing. Everyone, Kuroda did an unbelievable job. Phil threw the ball great last night. I felt I was able to get us deep into the game and give us a chance to win. We have thrown the ball well in this series. The bullpen has been great. Runs were hard to come by in this first series, and hopefully we can carry that over right into the next series here.
Q. Andy, you have gotten to see Miguel Cabrera a lot. Pitching against him when he was a rookie in the World Series and the National League, back in the American League. What impressed you about him and especially watching what he did this year?
ANDY PETTITTE: He is just a great hitter. Obviously he doesn't have a whole lot of holes. He's got power to the opposite field, and he's got obviously pull power. So when you have got a guy like that, he's tough to get out. When you have a guy that has the power that he does, to hit the balls out especially in Detroit, and right field Detroit being a right‑handed hitter that is just special. And then what he has done this year, winning the Triple Crown with an average like that, it's pretty remarkable, you know, to see what he has done. He will be a big key. To try to shut him down, I don't know if you can shut him down, but try to keep him from doing too much damage in the series, and that's key to us winning the series, that's for sure.

Congressional Reports Addresses Oil Spills (Jan 03, 2013)
BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) - A new report to Congress says pipeline spills caused by flooding dumped 2.4 million gallons of crude oil and other hazardous liquids into U.S. waterways over the past two decades.
The Department of Transportation report was crafted in response to a 2011 spill into Montana's Yellowstone River. The spill highlighted shortcomings in federal pipeline rules that require lines to be buried just 4 feet below riverbeds. Such scant cover can quickly be scoured away by floodwaters.
The Associated Press obtained the report this week. It says a review of accidents found flood-related pipeline spills since 1993 in California, Texas, Iowa, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Montana, Nebraska, South Dakota and Kentucky.
Agency officials will report back to Congress within the next year on what else should be done to prevent such accidents.

In the genes: Women hard-wired to shop
Christmas is no longer a time of peace and goodwill to all men. It can be the season of stress, consumerism, and overloading the credit card. Everyone knows that women cope with it better than men. Why is that? Perhaps the answer lies in the fact that many men find the actual process of shopping a daunting experience.
In a study commissioned by a London shopping center, psychologist David Lewis measured stress levels in shoppers by monitoring their heart rates, blood pressure, and secretion of stress hormones. He discovered that the stress levels of male shoppers rose to those experienced by fighter pilots and riot police, while only one in four women registered even a slight change.
Lewis felt that this huge difference between the sexes was due to inexperience in the shopping environment since women do the majority of a household's grocery shopping. So how can you help your partner through this "traumatic" experience?
An obvious tactic is to give him the Christmas grocery list and banish him to the supermarket. But forcing him to fight for his Christmas pudding is not likely to fill him with festive cheer. You may well find yourself alone under the mistletoe as he retreats to a bar to recover.
Perhaps we need to turn to evolutionary theory to really understand men.
Anthropologists say our ancestors enforced a strict division of labor between the sexes. The men made hunting implements, hunted for meat, and protected the tribe– while the women looked after the children, gathered vegetation, and grabbed any insects or small animals that happened to run by. With natural selection favoring these specific traits, we now have modern men who are genetically programmed to focus on one task at a time while women are adapted to keeping an open mind and making the most of everything they find.
This genetic bias explains why a man shopping for a pair of jeans walks into a shop, finds a pair his size, and buys them. However, a woman is destined to look through all the clothes shops (not to mention shoe shops) in search of a bargain or something to match a particular outfit.
But just how realistic is this theory?
It's easy to forget how hard life was for our ancestors. It was not a case of having to juggle work and life. Their daily work was finding enough food for the family, not to mention avoiding the powerful predators
Needing to make the most of any opportunity to survive, prehistoric men would have been opportunist hunters, not to mention scavengers. They might be tracking woolly mammoths, but they would pounce on anything edible that caught their eye and it didn't have to be warm and furry, it could be fruit or even raw materials for tools. This fact may explain why men will go to the supermarket for a bottle of milk and return with a case of beer they found on sale. However, while this demonstrates that men are capable of spotting a bargain, it doesn't explain why they would rather have their legs waxed than enter a shopping mall at Christmas.
Perhaps the answer lies with children. Our female ancestors not only had to look out for any available food, they needed to keep a watchful eye on their progeny. It's impossible to stop babies cramming anything new into their mouth. Imagine your child sitting on the forest floor surrounded by fascinating but potentially poisonous objects. Then add the kid intent on displaying his tree climbing prowess, not to mention the prospect of saber-tooth tigers prowling through the area. It starts to make Christmas shopping look as easy as falling off a Yule log.
Another strange male shopping trait is the desire to do all their shopping at the last minute, which may be linked with another evolutionary behavior, in this case the male trophy mentality. Men like to show off their bravery to demonstrate the superiority of their gene pool– and managing to buy 20 presents after 5pm on Christmas Eve is an impressive feat.
Luckily for them, they're usually oblivious to the fact that the recipients are less than thrilled with their presents, or that they have given poor Auntie Flo the same lavender toiletry set for the last three years. They're too busy telling everyone how they completed their shopping in two hours on Christmas Eve and still had time for a drink on the way home. We may object to Christmas products hitting the shops in September, but a little forward planning would reduce the stress levels significantly!

Browsing Working papers by Author "Engel Nielsen, Lars"
Now showing items 1-2 of 2
the case of NTT DoCoMoEngel Nielsen, Lars; Mahnke, Volker (København, 2003)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: In recent years, the leading Japanese wireless operator NTT DoCoMo has risen from being largely unknown outside Japan to international fame. Ground-breaking service innovations such as the world's first wireless internet service, I-mode, the world's first third generation wireless service FOMA, as well as the company's successful proliferation of its W-CDMA 3G technologies as the UMTS standard in Europe have generally impressed the troubled telecom industry on its brink to the new era wireless data services. Conversely, much scientism has been aired whether the NTT DoCoMo experience applies to European and US contexts due to differences in e.g. demographics, Internet penetration, and wireless industry structures. To date, these considerations have largely been based on anecdotal reports in trade magazines and an increasing number of case studies focused primarily on the I-mode service (e.g. Mulder and Simpson (2001); Harvard (2000)). Notable, exceptions are Ratliff (2001) and Williamson and Meegan (2002) that however both point to the need for elevating insights on NTT DoCoMo. This working paper sets out to contribute to a more elaborate picture of NTT DoCoMo. The working paper is outlined as follows. Departing from a sketch of DoCoMo's current challenges from the perspective of the CEO Keiji Tachikawa as the financial year 2003 is coming to an end (March 31 2003), a brief introduction to DoCoMo's history and its innovative capabilities initiates the effort to present a more detailed picture of the company. Then, the normal perception of NTT DoCoMo as a de facto monopolist with all dominating market and bargaining power is challenged by means of longitudinal study of the Japanese wireless market's development from 1992 to 2003. During this period, DoCoMo's leadership position as increasingly been challenged by new competitors that emerged from an industry consolidation and regulatory forces. It is found that the nature of competition has shifted from DoCoMo's undisputed dominance to a more dynamic environment signified by intense service innovation based competition. Then, insights are provided as how the NTT DoCoMo competes in its new environment. Three key strategic pillars are analyzed, namely the company's to approaches the (1) orchestrating of innovation with the examples of I-mode, C-mode, and Telematics services, (2) relational challenges with the examples of technology standardization alliances, interfirm relationships with handset providers and internationalization partners, and lastly (3) how new growth avenues are explored.

The Case of Mobile Service ProvidersEngel Nielsen, Lars; Mahnke, Volker (København, 2003)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Many companies in high technology fields engage with alliance partners to reduce risks, create synergies and learn. While the challenges of managing individual alliances are well documented, little is known on how to manage several R&D alliances simultaneously. Multiple alliance strategies can be observed in several companies engaged in the cross section of telecommunication and mobile technology where increased complexity magnifies managerial challenges. Drawing on modern portfolio theory, this paper offers a model for managing portfolios of R&D alliances. In particular, an analysis of a technology platform leader reveals how companies can reduce several types of risks associated with new technology and gain synergies by engaging in several alliances simultaneously.

The BMS box costs roughly ~$400. Seriously, that is not a typo and a zero is not missing. The Dinan Stage 2 tune costs $3,499.00. The Dinan tune gets you a 12.5 @ 112 in the 1/4 mile. That Dinan badge on the trunk may impress people who do not know N63 V8 tuning options but everyone else with the 'cheaper' tune on their 550i will be too far in front to see it.
First 11 second N63, BMS Stage II tuned F10 550xi goes 11.9@118 in the 1/4 mile - Comparison to Dinan Stage 2 550xiIt was just a matter of time and now the N63 V8's are in the 11's in the 1/4 mile with bolt on modifications. This all wheel drive F10 550xi has a BMS Stage II tune along with downpipes. That is enough to break into the 11 second range with a 11.943 @ 117.94 1/4 mile run. As the sedan is all wheel drive this was done on street tires and the 60 foot is a pretty good 1.743. Now let's put this performance in perspective versus the Dinan Stage 2 tune.

Dinan is just an over priced SUPER CONSERVATIVE tune that probably bumps boost 3-4psi at the most...Dinan, if im not mistaken, doesnt really have any knowledge about the basics of the way that turbochargers work on bmw motors as good as Terry does... The only car dinan started to play with was the N54 car and that car being there highest kit, which is the stage 3 kit doensnt even hit 15psi of boost??? There N54 stage 3 is only tuned, has a spearco upgraded intercooler, I must say A VERY WELL DESIGNED CARBON FIBER INTAKE SYSTEM THEY HAVE FOR THE N54 IS BAD ASS!!! i Know they do have an excellent exhaust that gets rid of some of the back pressure... All that would cost well over $4K. for I think 400bhp? thats NOT to the tires. And this is with there full stage 3 kits so you get your nifty little dinan 3 badge lol. They could have gone wild with the N54 but i dont think they knew what they were doing compared to Burger Motorsports...Thats just my personal opinion. If i do end up geting the M4, I know I'm going to have to wait some till the end of next month or the beginning of may for sure until we get to play around with that and see what that s55 motor can do. My car is going to stay stock until Terry releases something but I do know one thing, you will def be getting ALL your money's worth. $400 bucks and probably 100whp and up from there, how can you go wrong? Dinan products and staff seem to be a little behind on there turbo technology and how its going to work with direct injection and valvetronics ect... seem to be alot less knowledgable of what the car can handle and superchargers are more DINAN's deal. lol but even doing a dinan supercharged E46 m3, it still only makes like 400whp...maybe
I'm not a Dinan fanboy and kudos to Terry, because what they just accomplished is impressive, but it is tough to compare Dinan with a tuner like BMS or Cobb or Vishnu. Dinan has built a brand around matching BMW's warranty, not providing the best value (because they definitely aren't) or the fastest times. Because of that, they will always be more conservative in what they do. BMS, Cobb, Vishnu, etc can and will (thankfully ) push the limits more. That doesn't mean they aren't safe (I run one of those tunes myself), just means they aren't having to balance the cost of warranty repairs vs. setting records and adding significantly more power.

The US and Britain suspended non-lethal aid to rebels in northern Syria on Wednesday, a day after Islamists overran a border crossing in the snow-swept region near Turkey.
Gulf Arab states meeting in Kuwait demanded foreign militias withdraw from Syria and said Syrian President Bashar al-Assad must have no future role, in a declaration his regime denounced as meddling.
Thousands of Syrian refugees in neighboring Lebanon also had to battle the elements when their makeshift camps were lashed by a winter storm that brought snow, rain and freezing temperatures.
The US and British decision to suspend non-lethal aid to the opposition in northern Syria came after Islamist rebels seized the Bab al-Hawa border crossing and key supply bases from the mainstream Free Syrian Army (FSA).
"We have seen reports that Islamic Front forces have seized the Atmeh headquarters and warehouses belonging to the [FSA's] supreme military council and we are obviously concerned," US embassy in Ankara spokesman T.J. Grubisha told reporters.
"Because of the current situation, the United States has suspended deliveries of non-lethal assistance into northern Syria," Grubisha said.
Non-lethal US aid provided to the rebels has included armored vehicles, night vision goggles and advanced communications equipment.
Grubisha said the decision to suspend such aid would not impact on humanitarian assistance, which was coordinated by international and non-governmental organizations including the UN.
Britain said it too had suspended non-lethal aid, with a spokesman for its Ankara embassy saying the decision was taken because "the situation remains unclear" and did not mean support for the opposition was diminishing.
France said it would continue to provide non-lethal military aid to the main Syrian opposition National Coalition in coordination with its partners in the EU.
The Islamic Front, Syria's largest Islamist rebel force, seized depots belonging to the FSA near the Turkish border on Saturday, before taking control of the Bab al-Tawa crossing itself on Tuesday, according to monitors.
In Kuwait City, leaders of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) called on foreign militias to withdraw from Syria in a strongly worded statement at the conclusion of its two-day annual summit.
The six-nation Gulf Arab bloc said it "strongly condemned the continued genocide that al-Assad's regime is committing against the Syrian people using heavy and chemical weapons."
Its call for "the withdrawal of all foreign forces from Syria" was a clear reference to Iran-backed Shiite militias from Iraq and Lebanon's Hezbollah movement, which are supporting al-Assad's troops against Sunni-led rebels.
The GCC backed the National Coalition's decision to attend a Geneva peace conference, saying the Jan. 22 meeting should lead to the formation of a transitional government with extensive executive powers and in which al-Assad would have no role.
"Pillars of the Syrian regime whose hands have been stained by the blood of the Syrian people must have no role in the transitional government or Syria's political future," the oil-rich nations said.
In response, Damascus strongly condemned the "inflammatory rhetoric of the Council's statement on Syria, particularly as countries in the Council... support and practice terrorism."
"Those who participated today in the summit in Kuwait, first among them the Saudi regime, have contributed in large part to the killing of Syrians and the destruction of their country," the foreign ministry said.

Where does the inspiration for your songs come from?
Generally the initial ideas come from our lead singer Gary and perhaps what he's going through at that particular point in time.
The band is currently on its 2012 tour. Is there a particular place where you are looking forward to performing?
There are a few new places on this tour. Next week we're off to Dubai and then Oman. That's new territory for us, as we have never been to the Middle East. It's always good to visit new places – so we're excited about that.
What would you say are some of your favourite destinations?
We always have a good time in places like the US, and Mexico is also great. Just last year, we went to Buenos Aires, which I loved. However, the new places are the ones that you also tend to enjoy, because you have the feeling that you want to go out and visit the whole city.
Is there anything in particular that you like about Switzerland?
The chocolate (laughs). No, it's a great place. We've been here a few times now, and not only are the crowds really receptive, but the people have shown a lot of warmth and hospitality as well. What I've also found is that the scenery is breathtaking. I live in Scotland and we think we've got beautiful scenery, but the Alps are amazing. Overall it's a wonderful place to visit.
Snow Patrol, in cooperation with Universal Music, has created an audio channel for SWISS. What can passengers look forward to when they listen to your music during the flights?
Especially with this new record, Fallen Empires, everything seems to be woven together quite beautifully, and Gary's wordsmithship is phenomenal. It's a little bit more on the electronic side but also comprises a lot of beautiful moments, so there are definitely lots of different things to listen to. I hope that all the passengers enjoy it.
Tom, I would like to thank you very much for the interview, and I wish you all the best and good luck for the future.
Cheers, mate!

Top tools for testing your online security, part 2
Michael Cobb explains what tools are helpful in maintaining Web security, including security scanners, benchmarking tools, monitoring services and online resources.
by Michael Cobb
Top tools for testing your site's security and defenses
The following tools help analyze a security status in more detail and find indications of a system compromise.
Security scanners
You can't rely solely on patches to keep your system secure, but a good security scanner will help you find the holes that hackers exploit. The scanner typically launches probes, collects results and compares the results with a database of vulnerability fingerprints. In this
Even if your system is initially set up in a perfectly secure and pristine state, it will degrade over time. The more people with access to a system, the faster this degradation occurs. Therefore, the more administrators you have, the more often you should audit. Security scanning helps you audit the system to verify that your intended configuration is effective and up to date.
Benchmarking tools
Wouldn't it be great if you could see how other security experts have configured their Web servers, and then check to see whether your setup matches the industry best practice? The Center for Internet Security (CIS) (www.cisecurity.org) is defining consensus best-practice security configurations for computers connected to the Internet. Their free Benchmark and Scoring Tools provide a quick and easy way to evaluate a system and compare its level of security against minimum due care security benchmarks, which are kept up to date as new vulnerabilities are discovered.
Various reports guide you in how to harden both new and active systems while monitoring them to ensure that security settings continuously conform to the configuration specified in the benchmark. You can benefit from this knowledge, expertise and experience for free, so don't waste the opportunity. By demonstrating compliance with an accepted security standard, you can help protect yourself from prosecution or regulatory sanction.
Monitoring services
Many organizations outsource the job of monitoring and testing their Web site's security to a managed security service provider. The advantage of outsourcing these services is immediate access to experienced security specialists. This can solve problems of staff costs or shortages as it reduces the number of skill sets necessary in your security department personnel. The service level agreement will be an important part of the contract between you and your service provider, so look for firm commitments rather than vague assurances. The agreement should at least specify the following:
- 24/7 services
- Response times
- Customer reports
- Lapse times for policy changes
- Financial penalties for poor performance
Help is out there -- Useful sites and services
It is imperative that you stay informed about security issues and take time each day to visit sites such as SearchSecurity, SANS, CERT and NTBugtraq, which provide bulletins, news stories and other related security information. You should also subscribe to their security bulletins or newsletters. Join the user groups and discussion forums run by the vendors of your hardware and software. Software vendors also provide a wealth of information on known security bugs for their programs along with possible solutions.
It can also be enlightening to visit hacker Web sites and monitor the postings and information available on them. These sites often provide tools that can be useful in your vulnerability testing. Google maintains a list with brief descriptions of such sites at http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/Hacking/.

Black (Adventures)
- "Sorry! I was just swearing on my dreams to the sun, the skies and the sea!! Please wait till I'm done!"
- — Black in Pokémon Adventures: Black and White Chapter
|Japanese Name:
|Nuvema Town
|Pokémon Trainer
|First Appearance:
Black is the main character in the Black and White Chapter of Pokémon Adventures.
Personality[edit | edit source]
Black is a Pokémon Trainer aspiring to be a Master Trainer, beat the Elite Four and become Champion. He is also clever, as he uses his Pokémon in different ways to help with tasks. He is described also to be 'hot-blooded' because of his loud nature and tendency to do difficult tasks by himself. Black does not understand the meanings of show business like White, with many different show business aspects surprise him. Black is also familiar with libraries, going there a lot as a child. Also because of Black having many dreams, he cannot exactly think straight. To prevent this from happening often he has a Munna eat them which he refers to as 'darkening' his 'blank' (in other words, clouded) mind. This allows him to think much clearer in thought and become much smarter in tasks. When he does this, he apparently see everything in his perception in hexagons.
Appearance[edit | edit source]
Just like most characters in the manga, they are based on the playable characters in the game, he is based on Hilbert. Though unlike in the game, his hair is shown once. His hair is shown to be messy without his hat.
Plot[edit | edit source]
Black and White Chapter[edit | edit source]
Black is a Pokémon Trainer who dreams of conquering the Pokémon League, he also screams it most of the time. Because of these dreams, he can't keep focus on the real world, so he has his Munna use Dream Eater on him to "blanken his black mind" which causes him to sense things others can't just like finding the real culprit that in which Black was also accused of messing with White's Xtransceiver commerical, but found the real culprit: a Galvantula, he uses Tepig but got most of their equipment burned but he captured it. He also joined the Pokémon BW Agency under President White because he owes White a lot of money because White payed for the equipment in which his Tep burned makes him no other choice but to join her. In Accumula Town, he get's angry at Team Plasma because some people released their Pokémon because of Team Plasma's speech, even Pokémon some people have kept for at least a very long time. He runs towards into finding Team Plasma. Also as the story goes on, he starts to call White "boss" because of he being her employee. Black also encounters N and had a match against him which ended in a draw because both of their Pokémon fainted. Though Black stated that N was probably a good guy even though in Team Plasma because his Munna read N's thoughts and it was safe to say that he was a good person. He later met Bianca and Cheren in Straiton City to team up on a three-on-three battle or a Trio Battle. The battle starts out rough but finally manage to win by knocking out Chili's Pansear. Black's Munna runs away after being attracted to eating a strong dream. Black goes after Musha to find out Team Plasma has captured Musha. He fights Team Plasma off and saves Musha. Once he arrives in Nacrene City, he gets swayed into helping White shoot a video. But a Sraggy and Scrafty steal a prop for the scene and have to be knocked down. Black then leaves for his gym battle, running through the puzzle quickly. The gym battle is ended in a double knockout but Lenora gives her badge up anyway. White then tells him that they should head to Nimbasa to get her project Musical project done. But Team Plasma steals the dragon fossil in the museum and Black sets out with Burgh to find it. They then get attacked by the fossil but are able to find the Cofagrigus controling it and knock it down. After the fossil is returned, Black and White are attacked by Virizion but don't know what it was. They meet Battle Company President Geoff who sugjests it was Virizion. When they arrive in Castelia City, Black finds a lost boy and tells Tep to watch the boy while he gets th authorities. But the boy is a Zorua and attacks Tep. When Black returns, the Zorua escapes and he has no idea what happened. When he meets up with White, Tep goes on the vurge of evolving.Black the leaves for his gym battle. In the battle, Tep evolves into Pignite and is renamed Nite. Then they hear about the Pokemon kidnappings. The find Team Plasma are the culprits and are defeated. Black and White come to Liberty Garden to find Victini under Team Plasma's custody.Black defeats them and frees Victini. Black later meets Grimsley who plays a game with him. They then discover a Team Plasma grunt trying to get to the Relic Castle. Black and White come to Nimbasa and start working on the Musical project after they launch the opening ceremony, Black fights his gym battle stuck on a roller coaster but wins using the vertical wheel of the coaster and meets Thundurus. Black returns to find White then sees Marshal carrying her unconscious, thinking he attacked her. Marshal then tells Black to take her to the hospital to recover, and Black does so. After White has regained consciousness, she tells Black the story of her and N in the ferris wheel and Gigi going with him and not her. He then tries to coach White how to catch Pokemon when he captures a Tirtouga. He lends him his Brav for the Battle Subway and they go their separate ways.

Error 06-2e-00 occurs when playing a game or installing an update from a disc on Xbox 360
You see the following error message when you're trying to play a game or install an update from a disc:
Unrecognised Disc
If you press Y on your controller, you see status code "06-2e-00."
This may mean one of the following things:
- There is a problem with the disc (for example, it might be scratched or dirty).
- The game that you're trying to play might have problems.
- There may be issues with the system cache.
Solution 1: Inspect and clean the disc
Take a close look at the bottom of the game, film or music disc (the side without a label or image). Excessive scratches or smudges can prevent your console from reading the disc.
To clean the disc:
- Hold the disc by the edges without touching the top or bottom surface.
- Using a soft, clean, slightly damp cloth, lightly wipe from the centre of the disc outwards.
- When the disc is clean, load the disc into your console and see if the disc plays.
If the disc still does not play, try solution 2.
Solution 2: Try other discs
Try other discs to determine whether the problem happens with any disc or only with this particular disc.
Make sure the disc type and region code are compatible with the console. For more information about disc formats and regions, see Supported regions, formats and discs.
If the disc you are using has a region code that is compatible with your console but you still cannot play the disc, try solution 3.
Solution 3: Clear your system cache (game discs only)
If your Xbox 360 console can't play multiple game discs, try clearing your system cache.
If you still can't play a game disc, try solution 4.
Solution 4: Remove the storage device (game discs only)
If the problem happens only with game discs, try temporarily removing your console's hard drive to see if that fixes the problem. If your Xbox 360 consoles doesn't have a hard drive, skip to solution 5.
If this resolves the problem, reattach the hard drive and order a new Xbox 360 Hard Drive from our Xbox Online Service Centre (sign in with your Microsoft account). Console registration is required to replace a hard drive that is under warranty.
If you still can't play game discs, try solution 5.
Solution 5: Disconnect memory units and USB flash drives (game discs only)
If the problem happens only with game discs, try the following:
- Turn off your console.
- Disconnect any memory units or USB flash drives connected to your console.
- Turn on your console.
- Try playing a game.
If this solution resolves the problem, copy the content from the memory unit or flash drive to your hard drive and use another USB flash drive.
If you still can't play game discs, try solution 6.
Solution 6: Request a repair
If the previous steps didn't resolve the problem, your console needs to be repaired. See Getting your Xbox console or Kinect sensor serviced.
Repair or warranty questions? See Xbox 360 warranty, registration and repair: Frequently asked questions.

A Rose by Any Other Name
What should I call my new Editorial Page?
I decided that I will start a new editorial page. Not long ago I did a daily editorial page called "The Gnomestead Stump" and while I could continue it even after a bit of a gap, I think perhaps I will start a new one.
I have a few reasons for the decision. A number have to do with control of content. I have a more flexibility on a host I pay. I still have to stay within the law of course. I do have recourse to change provider if regulations are not what I care for.
Still, the largest reason I decided to make the change was a matter of the name. "The Gnomestead Stump" is a bit of an odd name. It fit in with the whole "Gnomestead" "Gnome's Garden" motif. I also had the "Gnome's Campfire" and later the "Gnome's Village". I had already used the Gnome's Campfire… I wanted a place where people might come around and listen. So I figured rather than a soap box… a stump, like the log you might sit or stand on by the campfire would work as a base for a name.
Now, I have "The Gnomestead" which I keep in "gnomestead.com" and "The Gnome's Garden". But, I want a better name for my editorial site. Otherwise I could just keep "The Gnomestead Stump" on Blogspot.
Here are my thoughts for a new name:
- The Gnome's Campfire
- The Gnome's Bonfire
- The Gnome's Fireside
- The Gnome's Soapbox
- By the Gnome's Fireplace
- Gnorman's Campfire
- Gnorman's Fireside
- Gnorman's Soapbox
I am not sure if there might be better names or if I should get away from Gnomes and Gnorman… I'm looking for ideas.

So, I'm a bit curious about something.
I love Minecraft, and I've been wanting to design a texture pack for a long time. I've debated on Transformers, Hyper Light Drifter, Voltron, and a lot of other things.
But I have to wonder; what would the feeling be on a Drowtales-themed texture pack?
Now, I don't know if this is something that is going to come to fruition. I don't have access to a computer at the moment (as I write this I'm on a smartphone) but it's on the list of things I would like to try doing.
More or less, I'd like some opinions on the idea. Minecraft has updated a lot (THEY HAVE LLAMAS NOW) and I would love to start playing on the PC again. (SOON)

The iKettle has WiFi and can be boiled from an iPhone. No, really
Ever wished you could set the kettle to boil the moment you woke up in a morning, just from your phone? Wish no longer as the iKettle is here, WiFi and iPhone app in tow! Available for £99.99 from British online retailer Firebox, the iKettle is available to pre-order now with general availability in 1-2 months.
The idea is ridiculously simple. Providing you keep it full of water, you can boil the kettle from anywhere in the home. When you wake up in a morning, the app will ask you if you want to boil it, likewise it will welcome you home by asking the same question. It's a lazy tea and coffee drinkers dream – otherwise known as me!
For more information and pictures, head on over to the source link below. It's expensive, for a kettle, and perhaps more than a little gimmicky, but I'm in love with the idea already. How about you?

A unique tool—the nut wizard—is available for purchase at the Fulton Soil and Water Conservation District. The nut wizard will pick up walnuts, acorns or hickory nuts, and comes in three different sizes.
A long handle is attached to a wire egg-shaped basket where the nuts are collected as the tool rolls over the nuts on the ground.
View the nut wizard at www.fultoncountyoh.com/swcd or stop in at the office located at 8770 St. Rt. 108, in Wauseon, between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.
The Fulton Soil and Water Conservation District (Fulton SWCD) has rain barrels and tumbling composters available for purchase.
A rain barrel system collects and stores rainwater from the roof, which would otherwise be lost to runoff and diverted to storm drains and streams. The rain barrel supplies free "soft water" which contains no chlorine, lime or calcium and makes it ideal for gardens, flower pots, and car and window washing.
Lawn and garden watering make up nearly 40 percent of total household water use during the summer. A rain barrel will save most homeowners nearly 1,300 gallons of water during the peak summer months. Saving water not only helps protect the environment, it saves consumers money. Diverting water from storm drains also decreases the impact of runoff to streams.
A rain barrel system is an easy way to have a consistent supply of clean, fresh water for outdoor use.
The rain barrels are re-used 55 to 60 gallon food-grade barrels with a hose connector, linking hose connector, and overflow connection. The top of the barrel contains a screen to catch leaves and insects.
For more information, to see a rain barrel on display, or learn about other services offered, stop in at the Fulton Soil and Water Conservation District, located at 8770 St. Rt. 108, Suite B, in Wauseon, across from the fairgrounds, visit www.fultoncountyoh.com/swcd or call 419/337-9217.
